25.01.2022 Today is officially the start of bushfire season. Are you prepared?

24.01.2022 Congratulations to our local Rural Fire Brigades who are celebrating their 70th anniversary this week. Kuranda/Myola Rural Fire Brigade, Speewah Rural Fire Brigade, Koah Rural Fire Brigade & Davies Creek Rural Fire Brigade.

24.01.2022 Operation Rudolph will be running again this year for the Kuranda area. Please note there will be 2 routes running simultaneously.

23.01.2022 Need to contact emergency services on your mobile phone but no signal? You should still try dialling triple 0 (000). Your mobile phone will try to connect with any available mobile carrier - not just the one which provides you regular mobile service. You are not charged for triple 0 calls - even if your call is connected using a different mobile phone company.

23.01.2022 Thanks Kuranda Men's Shed. This was a real hit with the kids at Easter.
