In celebration of World Environment Day, DjilangPort welcomed City of Greater Geelong Senior Sustainability Officer, Peter Mercouriou, to share the City’s climate action agenda and bold vision to achieve net zero community emissions by 2035.

The session highlighted how integrated planning, sustainability standards and practical community initiatives are helping drive both emissions reduction and climate resilience across Greater Geelong.

Topics included planning reforms, nature-based solutions, the increasing impacts and costs of climate risks, innovative community initiatives and how we can reduce corporate emissions.
Peter’s presentation was a strong reminder that climate action is not only about reducing emissions, but also building healthier, more resilient and future-ready communities, and we thank Peter for sharing his time and knowledge with DjilangPort.

Each year, DjilangPort marks National Reconciliation Week through a program of learning and reflection, encouraging our team members to consider how they can contribute to reconciliation in practical ways.

As part of this year’s program, we hosted a fireside chat with Vice-President of the Collingwood Football Club and proud Djab Wurrung and Gunditjmara woman, Jodie Sizer, sparking an honest and impactful conversation on racism, leadership and belonging.

Drawing on her leadership in driving anti-racism reform in elite sport, including co-chairing the club’s Anti-Racism Expert Committee and overseeing the commissioning of the Do Better Report, Jodie shared powerful reflections on accountability, the importance of listening and what it takes to lead cultural change with courage and integrity.

Jodie’s insight left a strong impression on our team, prompting meaningful reflection on our own roles in driving change. We sincerely thank Jodie for sharing her time and knowledge with us.

A morning of community, connection and club pride at Windsor Park 💙💛

GeelongPort is proud to back the North Shore Football & Netball Club, joining their 2026 Sponsors Breakfast to celebrate the incredible people, partnerships and purpose behind this special club.

A standout moment was the unveiling of this year’s Indigenous jumper - a powerful blend of culture, creativity and community, designed by Dream Hoysted, a talented Northern Bay P-12 College student through the Hansen “Rocky” Couzens Scholarship for Indigenous Art.

Just minutes from the port, the Seagulls continue to strengthen the north, supporting sport, shaping young people and strengthening social connection.

We’re proud to play our part. Because we live here too.

It was great to have our new friend here for a brief visit!

The countdown is until they join us full-time 🤗

Spirit of Tasmania V is now on Australian shores! 🚢

The vessel has departed Fremantle after completing its required stop, including import formalities, a crew change, refuelling, and restocking. It’s now on its way to Geelong and due to arrive this weekend.

Upon arrival in Geelong, the ship will hold at anchor until our current vessel sails out, then dock to undergo further gantry testing. After testing, it will be berthed at Station Pier in Melbourne and then sail down to Hobart in June for the final fit-out of local content.

At dawn, ports are nearly always calm.
The water is still. The horizon softens.
And for a moment, time seems to hold its breath.
ANZAC Day is like that.

A quiet moment to pause and remember lives shaped by courage, bound by mateship and defined by sacrifice.

Lives given in service to others, and values carried forward long after.

Today, we remember the fallen.
We honour their sacrifice.
And we recognise all who continue to serve, preserving the legacy the ANZACs began.

Lest we forget.

Nearly half a skip of rubbish has been saved from entering Cuthbertson Creek thanks to GeelongPort’s Clean Up Australia Day efforts at Stead Park.

For the ninth consecutive year, GeelongPort partnered with Corio Waste Management on the Clean Up Australia Day activity, and 28 people from across both businesses donned their gloves to help make change.

With 30 bags of rubbish collected, the group left the local park looking spotless and ready for the community to safely enjoy.
