Ethnic Communities Youth from Burma Fun Day

Saturday 16th January

Young people and families from the Karen, Rohingya and Chin communities joined QPASTT and Visible Ink Zillmere last Saturday for a day of sports, food and fun. Held at O’Callaghan Park Zillmere, 70 people came to the event to play soccer, volleyball, basketball, badminton and cane ball. Followed by a BBQ lunch, it was an enjoyable day and we hope to run another event soon.

Berzerk Snapshot: Canoeing

Boondall Wetlands

Tuesday 15th December

Elissa McMillan

On the 15th December 8 lucky participants took to the water at Boondall Wetlands for a paddle. With canoes provided by the Boondall Wetlands Environment Centre and a guide to show us the way, we spent the afternoon learning how to canoe in a straight line (it’s harder than you think!), enjoying the beautiful surrounds and learning about the unique wildlife at the wetlands. During the paddle we saw stingrays, small fish, crabs and some birds that had flown 7000km from Alaska!

This activity is part of the Berzerk School Holidays Program, which has lots of fun activities happening for young people 12-25 years during the school holidays. Still to come this holidays is a coast trip to Caloundra on 19th Jan and the Karaoke, Pool n Pizza night on 22nd Jan. There are also loads of other awesome activities happening- you can check these out here. Hope to see you!
