🌱🌿 Our Junior Rangers were at it again today! 🌿🌱

Our Junior Ranger Program Officer, Etelka, had our Junior Rangers out of the classroom and getting hands-on today, working together to set up their new greenhouse.

There was plenty of teamwork, determination and problem-solving on display as everyone pitched in to get the job done. 💪🏽🌱

It’s great to see our Junior Rangers learning through practical activities, working as a team and building new skills outside of the classroom.

👏🏽 Well done to Etelka and all our Junior Rangers for a great effort today!

🌿💚 Learning, growing and working together

💛 R U OK? Day 2026 💛

Today, Gunggandji was proud to participate in and support the R U OK? Day event hosted by Gurriny Yealamucka Health Service.

It was a great opportunity to come together as a community, connect with one another and remind everyone of the importance of checking in with family, friends and colleagues.

We were especially proud to have our Gunggandji Junior Rangers involved in the day, joining the march and being part of this important community event. 💛

🌿 It’s great to have our young people involved in activities that promote connection, wellbeing and looking out for one another.

🌟 A special spotlight on our Junior Ranger Program Coordinator, Teaghan Sexton, for her amazing design and artwork on our Gunggandji banner for the march. Great work, Teaghan! 👏🏽💛

A simple conversation can make a difference — ask R U OK?, listen and support one another.

Thank you to Gurriny for hosting such an important event and bringing our community together. 💛

🌿🎓 CONGRATULATIONS JUNIOR RANGERS – COHORT 4 🎓🌿

What an achievement! 👏🏽✨ You’ve seen their graduation photos; now here’s pictures from throughout the 22 weeks working alongside our Senior Rangers and Stakeholders. 💚

GACRNTBC is extremely proud to congratulate our Junior Rangers – Cohort 4, made up of Yarrabah students attending Gordonvale State High School and Djarragun College; who have successfully completed their:
🎓 AHC21024 – Certificate II in Conservation and Ecosystem Management

This is a fantastic achievement for our young people and an important step towards building their skills, confidence and future pathways in Conservation, Land and Sea Country Management, Indigenous Ranger Programs and the environmental sector. 🌱🌊🐢

Throughout their qualification, our Junior Rangers worked through 15 nationally recognised units of competency – 2 Core Units and 13 Elective Units.📚

But this achievement is about much more than completing workbooks and assessments. 🌿

Throughout the Junior Ranger Program, our young people have had opportunities to develop practical skills, work together, learn on Country, gain an understanding of caring for our natural environment and see the different career pathways available to them within the Ranger and conservation sector. ✨

We are incredibly proud to see another cohort of Yarrabah young people gaining nationally recognised qualifications while they are still at school. 💚

This is only the beginning. Keep learning, keep growing and continue carrying that knowledge forward as the next generation caring for Country, Culture and Community. 🌊🌱

STRONG YOUNG PEOPLE • STRONG COUNTRY • STRONG FUTURES

Griffith University’s research aims to assist
Yarrabah in co-designing a water quality
model using both Western and Indigenous
knowledge and science. 💦

Both Ranger groups GAC and GMY, Council Water Gang member King Jaban have sat down with Griffith University over the last few days to come up with a plan to test the water quality around community, the findings from the test will determine drinkable and bathable Creek Water. 🌱

We also hope to identify what sorts of bacteria are in our water and dentify causes of sore ears, eyes and skin sore from our water holes also compare the treated town water to our natural water ways. 🦠

Over the next few months Griffith University will train our rangers in water quality testing, so we can continue to keep community safe around our water holes and partner with council to educate community on safe drinkable and bathable water. ✅
