Do you live or work in greater Launceston or will you be in the area on 15 June?

A reminder that the Australian Government is testing its new emergency warning system on Monday 15 June.

Any compatible mobile devices such as tablets, smartwatches and mobile phones will receive a Priority Alert – this is a ‘watch and act’ alert.

Your device will play a siren-like warning sound and display a test message at the same time.

Don’t be alarmed when you receive this. You don’t need to do anything and the sound should only last for around 10 seconds.

If you would like to avoid the alert, please turn your phone off during this time.

For more information, visit: www.ausalert.gov.au

We love how our schools bring Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM) to life!

All the exploring, creating and discovering is sparking curiosity, fostering problem-solving skills and building confidence 🧠💡

And how beautiful are all the different sceneries students pass on their walks 🍂⛰️🌊
