The Australian Government is introducing a new emergency warning system later this year called AusAlert.

AusAlert uses the latest technology to send emergency messages to compatible mobile devices during local and national disasters.

These messages aim to keep communities informed so they can take action, saving lives and property.

In the lead up to AusAlert being used, there will be a national test on Monday 27 July.

📢 Community notice – Tree removal at Wayraparattee CFLC, Geeveston 📢

Next week, on Thursday 18th and Friday 19th, you may notice some significant tree work taking place on the corner of Huon Highway and Memorial Drive — the home of the wayraparattee Child and Family Learning Centre.

🌳🌳 Two large poplar trees will be removed over those two days. Both trees have been assessed by qualified arborists and deemed non-viable, with the potential to pose a future safety risk to the children and community members who attend wayraparattee.

We know these are big, well-known trees and their removal may come as a surprise — so we wanted to let the community know in advance that this work is both planned and necessary.

Thank you for your understanding. 💚
