THREE MOON SILOS

This wonderful silo art depicts Joel Fergie’s and Travis Vinson’s version of the legend of the naming of the Three Moon. It depicts an aboriginal elder sharing dreamtime stories and of times gone by with his granddaughter. It tells the story of the legends of the naming of Three Moon.
Which includes a swagman, Aboriginal stockman or a Chinese station cook, that were boiling their billy on the banks of the creek and noticed three moon's – one in the sky, one reflecting on the creek and one reflecting in his billy.
There is another story also of how the name came about, involving aboriginals that were given the job of washing the sheep at a local property along the river bank around 1887. The way it was communicated to the aboriginals who wanted to come back to work was to return to the same location on the riverbend when three moon's had passed away, this location from then on was called Three Moon.

As we all live busy lives, we must remember to make time for self care.
June is Bowel Cancer Awareness Month. An important reminder that a simple check can save lives. Bowel cancer is one of the most common cancers in Australia. Screening helps detect cancer early, when it’s more treatable. Most bowel cancers start as polyps, which can often be found and removed. It’s important to be aware of early warning signs as early detection can save lives.
Symptoms to look for include:

- Blood in your poo or on toilet paper
- Ongoing changes in bowel habits (diarrhoea/constipation)
- Abdominal pain, bloating, or feeling like your bowel doesn’t empty fully
- Unexplained weight loss or unusual fatigue

If something feels off, get it checked. A quick appointment with your GP could make all the difference.

Good morning Australia 🇦🇺 ☺️

Kendall, Aiden and Alannah, are taking on the May 50K with incredible courage and heart, inspired by their mum’s strength in living with MS. Their effort is a beautiful reminder of how love can turn into action, and how even the youngest voices can make a powerful difference.
In Australia, around 0.13% of people, about 1 in 750 Australians live with multiple sclerosis. Behind that number are families, stories, challenges, and a daily need for hope, support, and research. By taking on this challenge, Kendall, Aiden and Alannah are helping shine a light on MS and the impact it has on the people we love most.
We’re so proud to support them as they walk, run, and give their all for something deeply personal. If you’re able to support their journey, every donation and every share helps bring us closer to better treatments, more understanding, and a brighter future for families living with MS.

Kendall Aiden and Alannah say together we can leave MS where it belongs, behind us.

This May I'm taking part in The May 50K for multiple sclerosis research! Please support my challenge, together we can leave MS where it belongs, behind us.

Morning 🇦🇺😊

Thanks for your patience over the past few weeks. Our team have been on some incredibly long journeys covering the full span of the nation. We have had multiple journeys greater than 3000km one way and a bumpy trip across the strait returning loved ones to their families

Multiple Long haul tasks involve detailed logistical planning. Wednesday’s telematics vehicle monitoring put another 10400km on our fleet, this was amongst 13 long haul team members. Add the task of taking In to care and out of care. It makes a fair day. A couple of pictures from where our fleet and team started there Thursday journeys.

Our coordination team have the knowledge and expertise to specifically curate your next transfer.
