A great evening was had by all that attended the official Kowanyama Museum and Art Exhibition opening last week. The Kowanyama Mayor Michael Yam took all involved on a tour of the centre and cooked up a traditional Kup Murri with fresh wallaby and goanna for the community to enjoy.

Joy and jubilations were felt across the Airport in Pormpuraaw, when army recruits returned home for the first time after leaving for their first part of army training in Cairns.

SEE program has finally arrived in Kowanyama

Two local men have commenced work on the construction of the new Women’s Shelter in Pormpuraaw. Both men have previous construction experience and white cards and have been able to gain work with Strategic Builders who have the contract to complete the works. These men are excellent attenders at their WfD activity and have made it to the top of the list for recommendations to the contractors due to this.

Great job so far – we are excited to see the final product!
