Hi everyone, I hope you have all had a great week so far and are enjoying the warmer weather!
I was in Ayr for a weekend last month to visit family, and I had the chance to catch up with Miah over coffee. It was lovely to hear how much she has been enjoying living and working in the Burdekin, and how welcoming the community has been!
With only four more weeks to go until I complete my degree, a Bachelor of Communications and Journalism, I’ve been as busy as a bee, finalising presentations, and assignments left, right and centre! My friends and I find it hard to believe how quickly our degrees have flown by, and we all can’t wait to celebrate our graduation later this year!
With the Burdekin Water Festival Grand Parade set for this Saturday, I am a little jealous that I can’t join you all on Queen Street to catch some lollies!
The QMN Manufacturing Long Lunch last weekend looked absolutely magical - it’s clear how hard the Burdekin Water Festival Committee has worked over the past few months to bring the Water Festival back, and it’s been amazing to hear how supportive the community and local businesses have been of their efforts.
A huge congrats to all Senior Ambassadors, especially to Demi and Brielle (Winner and Runner Up), and also the Junior Ambassadors! I can’t wait to see all the amazing floats line Queen Street from 4:30pm on Saturday, as well as who the Junior Ambassador Winner and Runner Up will be!
I hope you all enjoy the read, and I’ll chat to you soon!
