25.01.2022 Hey ICG travellers.... we have told you we are looking for very special encounters! Take a look at this one..... Faraway Bay is an inviting haven, limited to just 16 ,nestled on a rocky hilltop overlooking the turquoise Timor Sea. The location, 280kms northwest of Kununurra, is in the remote and spellbinding Kimberley Coastal region of Western Australia. https://youtu.be/ElcCe2oYsi0

25.01.2022 Seqwater Virtual Kindy program has been great . Kids love the Seqwater Waterwall!

24.01.2022 Through virtual learning, Seqwater is bringing its H2O Kids educational incursions into classrooms. Ms Bergstrums Year 2 class at St Finbarrs Primary in Ashgrove (pictured) was one of the latest to take part and learn about the importance of water.

24.01.2022 Dear friends of ICG.... just one year ago many of us were in Singapore already, on our way to an adventure of a lifetime and what an incredible time it was! We were to experience so much and have an incredible time! Remember this!!!!!! https://youtu.be/-iMcgeFb2WY

22.01.2022 There is nothing like a great hotdog! Really fresh bun and very tasty Frankfurt! While America is the home to them.... I think the 7 eleven version is pretty tasty! It has to be simple !

22.01.2022 Over the last 6 months , virtual teaching and learning has been a wonderful success story for Seqwater! We actually have done more virtual in some months than live for the same time last year. I had a class comment this week that it was really having you there! A great compliment but it started me thinking. We all watch TV and kids love the screen time experiences etc. A further comment from the teacher this week said it all. The kids were really engaged with the screen... but what made the difference was that it talked back to them! You were actually there! This was the difference! The engagement involved in virtual learning cannot be overlooked. It’s not just about putting something on to watch or do. This was how many educational facilities adopted virtual learning. The success though is in the ability to actively and creatively really engaging live as though you are both physically in the same room. Technology allows this now and I think it is the way of the future if it has the correct attitude and vibrant personalities to do it!

21.01.2022 We have just commemorated the beginning of the Battle of the Somme on July 1st 1916. Australian soldiers were to join the horror of the Western Front not long after. The Soil of the Somme is an amazing collection of 5 soils taken from those French battlefields and presented in striking glass and silver medallions . The collection of all 5 presented in a velvet case or individual key rings are a limited offering from ICG. Authenticated by GPS and an information brochure makes this collection a truly memorable piece of history from those battlefields of Fromelles, Pozieres, Bullecourt, Villers Bretonneux and Hamel where Australians took part in the Great War. Secure your piece of history now.

21.01.2022 Seqwater is pleased to be among the organisations producing online activities for National Science Week this year. Check out all the great science lessons, interviews and competitions to engage, educate and entertain - including lessons on water! www.inspiringqld.com.au/learning-lab

21.01.2022 Vignacourt in Northern France is remembered for the wonderful Thuillier collection of photos of behind the lines during the Great War. It also is one of only recollections of the Armistice signed on the 11th November. It also may have been one of the first places to have received news of the cessation of fighting. The Thuillier photos tell the story as soldiers and locals gather in the town square. The wonderful Otto Mellor captured the scene also a 100 years later in 2018. Beautiful work Otto and memorable. Lest we Forget on this Remembrance Day 2020!

21.01.2022 Memories of 2019!

17.01.2022 ICG friends...... this time last year we were about to head for beautiful Florence. Pam, Judy and Duchess remember the Gold shops on the bridge! Great food and wonderful sites. Just a few days before Tuscany would be home for a week! Oh how time flies!!!!

17.01.2022 A wonderful opportunity to catch up with the Mathewson family this afternoon to shoot some photos for an incredible new book featuring the wonderful art of George Petrou. The Art of Sacrifice will feature an incredible array of Georges Inspiring art pieces with stories of the people and places. Keep an eye out .... it is going to be a wonderful read and visual masterpiece. Well done George. It was also incredibly coincidental that we have our photos taken today by Sharyn Mathewsen , photographer wife of Andrew whose Great Uncle Jack Mathewsen is a Silent Soldier of Naours. Jacks father Thomas is considered the father of Queensland photography. History is just incredible !

17.01.2022 The Behind the Lines exhibition is still on display at the Commissariat Store Museum , thanks to Covid. If you missed it , go and see it and discover stories of Queenslanders who were at Naours and Vignacourt......incredible stories. Check it out before it is replaced soon! The First World War is invariably characterised by the mindless slaughter of troops, while much time was spent behind the lines, those areas served as giant hubs at the intersect of not only new recruits b...ut also soldiers returning from the front for a rest while on leave or recover from an injury. In Northern France in Picardy the villages and towns of Vignacourt and Naours , Flixecourt, Bertangles, Abbeville and Etaples and many other were always behind the front lines. The exhibition explores two incredible finds that help us today to understand more about everyday lives behind the lines. In 2011, Ross Coulthart, re-discovered 4000 glass plates negatives from the First World War in the small village of Vignacourt, in the attic of a farm barn. The photos were taken by Louis and Antoinette Thuillier, who had supplemented their farming income during the war by selling pictures to passing Allied soldiers. The Thuillier Collection was purchased by Kerry Stokes, and the photos of 800 Australian soldiers are in the collection of the Australian War memorial. Only 160 Australian soldiers have been identified. The exhibition tells the story of four soldiers from Vignacourt: Thomas James Belden, Roy Swan Purrsey, and Thomas and William See, Just a few kilometres from Vignacourt is the village of Naours. The 20 kilometres cave network lies beneath the village, that was used in Medieval times as sanctuary, but during the Great war a place of respite. It has preserved the graffiti left by soldiers, amongst those four Queenslanders: Alfred Henry Clegg, John Trevallon Mathewson, John Patrick Ramkema, and William John Riordan. The stories of eight Queenslanders in Vignacourt and Naours, practising peaceful activities, can bring us closer to this years Anniversary of Armistice and remind us on returned soldiers as well on those who never returned from the Great War.

09.01.2022 Villers Bretonneux and many places on the Somme are mourning today with the passing of Monsieur Patrick Simon, Mayor of Villers Bretonneux. He was a wonderful supporter of the Anzac tradition and the wonderful relationship of Australia and France. May he Rest In Peace and we send our deepest thoughts to his family and the community of VB.

08.01.2022 Yesterday we had the chance to use incredible virtual technology......Virbella.....almost like a Simcity experience for those who remember. The Gympie Regional Stem Hub conducted their National Science week event virtually in Virbella- a virtual campus where you take part in lectures and events with the creation of you very own Avitar! Quite amazing. Wow!

08.01.2022 National Science week culminated with a whole school visit to Payne Road State School. 280 plus students and 7 sessions across all classes in one day! We managed to roll out the entire Seqwater H2O Kids program offerings including some water experiments! A truly great day of Water Education and a Science.

08.01.2022 Another great shot!!! Somewhere to really visit soon while the environment has shone brightly during Covid!

07.01.2022 104 years today..... what a waste of life and so much more! https://youtu.be/XqvALkpsfRo

07.01.2022 You have got to love National Science Week live virtual lessons!

06.01.2022 This would be truly amazing to see ! It was not finished when we there last October. https://edition.cnn.com//tutankhamun-grand-egyp/index.html

05.01.2022 Virtual Science was a reality today at Sunshine Beach State High School. Seqwater used Teams to deliver a "cracker" science lesson. Year 11 Science students learnt the value of catchment care and how it relates to water quality. Students tested water from one of Seqwater's dams for a number of water quality parameters and learnt many interesting things about the way water in our catchments can be effected,making treatment all that harder. A great lesson and almost as good as being at the dam. The students will continue their learning by looking at the quality of local waterways nearby.

05.01.2022 I like this a lot......and its within reach!

05.01.2022 Happy Queensland Day....such a great place to live and so much to see!

04.01.2022 Great to see Vignacourt Museum featured in the The Best of France magazine. Glad to hear it is again open for visitors also.

04.01.2022 Catch up with Seqwaters Virtual Water Education program now on offer and see what we can do for your curriculum needs. Its almost like having the real thing there!

04.01.2022 September 25th 2020 Estate of Petroio. Tuscany Italy .... Oh memories......great Pizzas that night with an equally great view!

04.01.2022 Very cool link to photos past and present as we remember the end of WW2 on the 8th May. Thanks for sharing Laurent! http://interactive.guim.co.uk//image-opacity-s/index.html

03.01.2022 Incredible views of the Himalayas from Kathmandu ! Something not seen for so long! Incredible.

03.01.2022 While schools have recommenced learning at school , Seqwater incursions and excursions are still impacted. Our H2O Kids online virtual learning continues our outreach to achieve water literacy and understanding about our precious resource. Aviation High at Hendra became our first online school on Monday as we delivered our Day Zero program to a class of year 7s. The program will be delivered to other classes this week via TEAMS. Eight other schools from Kindy through to year 11 have so far signed up for online delivery by us as we continue to navigate the Covid 19 issues. Seqwater is the only Water entity in Australia ( and across the world) that is offering online virtual continuation of their incredible program!
