​6 Jun 2026 -  We had a good productive working bee today with 9 people in attendance in lovely sunny weather. Cutting and pasting gorse, weeding the trees, and replacing damaged tree guards near Champ Street.

Thanks to all who came along and helped and those that apologised for being unable to attend.

Rob told us that David Quon had won the 1st price of the BODC art competition yesterday.

We congratulate David on his great achievement.

There have been deer and sheep in the conservation area causing more damage to the trees.

Again we had to remove many damaged and broken tree guards. There are still a lot of tree guards to be collected and trees to have wire guards put in place where the deer have caused damage in the NE section of the conservation area near the swamp.

PWS Ranger David Adams joined us for coffee and the lovely morning tea of cake and scones prepared by Kez.

Thanks to Kez for her wonderful scones and all the effort she continues to make for SCAGI. David told us of plans to put more bird signs in the area and plans to educate the community about the shore birds. (photos)

Attendees: Peter Dane, David Quon, Paul Peacock, Steve Myers, Cath Sranton, Robin and Samantha Kelman, Kerryn and Quentin Smith

​19 Jan 2026 - The next Break O Day Council meeting will be at 10am next Monday the 19th of January.

At the meeting there will be discussion about the motions NEBN put forward and passed at the Councils AGM in December 2025.

The motions are related to increased resources for a weed officer and animal control officer (domestic and feral animals), protecting Future Potential Production Forests and addressing a range of coastal development issues including strata titles, tourism accommodation, scenic protection, subdivision and storm water.

It would be appreciated if as many people as possible could attend the meeting to show the Council the community wants better protection and management of Break O Days natural environment and scenic beauty.​
