23.01.2022 The fastest purely solar powered cars in the world are likely to start arriving into Port Augusta in 30-60 minutes as part of the solar challenge. They will be arriving around 4:30 until 6pm. (Unless the wind slows them a bit) These cars have come from all over the world and are worth millions each. If you want to see them up close, head out to the BP next to pink lake. They only stick around for a half hour and then they’re away again. Great for the kids.

12.01.2022 I was chatting to some very curious year 2/3 students this morning about the history of the bridges in Port Augusta. The duplication of the Joy Baluch AM Bridge has a budget of $200 million and these students will be putting forward their design ideas to the state government. A great local topic for the Stirling North Primary School students to participate in Stirling North Primary School... Dan van Holst Pellekaan MP See more
