END OF AN ERA

This week marked the close of an important chapter for Queanbeyan District Basketball Association, with the resignation of three incredible life members. Carol Duvall with 30 years, Gus Gorman with 30 years and Jan Browne with an amazing 45 years. Together, that’s 105 years of experience, memories and dedication given to the game, the club and the community.

From teaching skills on the court to shaping the lives of so many Queanbeyan kids off it, we all have a basketball memory to share and can all agree their impact has been enormous ♥️🏀

You CAN feel glamorous filling up your Kluger at 7 Eleven Karabar ✨

I think it was Coco Chanel who once said: ‘A woman who changes her hair is about to change her life’. It’s fair to say I’ve been through the wringer lately. In the space of six months I closed my consulting business, sold my house and left my marriage. I was tired of living life […]

Did not expect to have the feels I did 🥺

It’s hard to explain, but the first time I ever drove along Environa Drive and into South Jerrabomberra, it felt like coming home.

The streets of Queanbeyan were lined this morning as locals gathered to commemorate the 110th ANZAC Day.

Veterans, service members, schools, and community groups all came together to honour the sacrifices of those who served.

A new inclusion for 2025 was the New Zealand national anthem, sang by the Queanbeyan Choir.

A beautiful show of respect, unity, and reflection 🇦🇺🇳🇿

Vale Ian Baker 1.11.62 - 21.4.25

A stalwart figure in the Queanbeyan football community. A leader, a role model and all round top bloke. He will be missed by many ♥️

The Queanbeyan rugby league story is very much a tale of two teams. The boys-and now girls- in sky blue from Seiffert and their rivals across town, the Kangaroos from the west. In recent years the culture and community of the Queanbeyan Kangaroos has strengthened the integrity and success of the clu...

Emma Bradley - you are an inspiration ♥️

Emma Bradley was at Chemist Warehouse last week when a teenage boy, who’d been staring at her, eventually walked over and asked: ‘Are you Emma? I remember you!’ This kind of thing happens to Emma a lot — and it’s not surprising given she’s cared for more than 80 local kids as a Family Da...

‘The reality of brain cancer is that it’s incurable.’

Dave Marchant was in the middle of a workout last August when he tried to perform an exercise that involved scrunching the toes of his left foot. As much as he tried, he couldn’t get his toes to move. He knew something was wrong. Three months later, in November, the 38-year-old deputy principal of...
