That's a wrap on Gladstone! ⚓

Thanks to everyone who came along to our Supervisors Workshop with David and Lowanna this week! Great conversations, plenty of ideas shared around the tables, and not a bad of the harbour view either.

Now, where to next?

We're heading a long way west to a town in outback Queensland. It's where the Royal Flying Doctor Service first took off, and it has a big place in the early Qantas story too.
