Eight Eco Logical Australia team members recently swapped their offices for the coastline, taking on the Coastrek challenge along Sydney’s northern beaches.

Teams completed the 30 km and 20 km treks, all in support of an incredibly important cause, raising funds for Beyond Blue, providers of vital mental health support, information and resources.

Everyone trained hard in the lead-up, preparing to cover the long distances across beaches, bush trails and bitumen. Along the way, there were plenty of laughs, chats and shared snacks as the team's endurance was put to the test.

Participating in events like Coastrek reflects who we are at Eco Logical Australia. Supporting meaningful causes aligns with our purpose of empowering people to make a difference and reflects the values that we bring to our work and community every day. If you’re able to donate, every contribution helps – https://lnkd.in/gdJwXFqg

A big congratulations to everyone involved and thank you to those who have supported us along the way!

Our ecologists often interact with wildlife, so it’s crucial we handle fauna correctly and with care to protect both their wellbeing and our own safety Ongoing training helps us apply best-practice techniques in the field.
This is why we regularly run comprehensive fauna handling workshops led by our approachable expert, Frank Lemckert.

The workshops provide valuable, hands-on experience with fauna commonly encountered during surveys in a safe and controlled environment, while also giving the team a great opportunity to connect and learn together.

Participants observed a diverse range of species, including eastern and spotted-tail quolls, squirrel and sugar gliders, eastern pygmy possums, Parma wallabies and long-nosed potoroos. They also had close encounters with a koala and grey-headed flying fox, and met resident blue-tongues, echidnas and pythons.

The workshop provided practical skills in:
- Catch and release techniques
- Spotlighting in the bush
- Safe handling of small to medium-sized mammals, reptiles and birds

Well done to everyone who participated and a big thank you to Frank!

Congratulations to Richard Cresswell on his induction as President of the IAH Australia - International Association of Hydrogeologists!

Richard succeeds Kelly-Jane Wallis, who has led the Chapter with distinction over the past four years. We thank Kelly-Jane for her leadership and her commitment to advancing the groundwater profession across Australia.

In his new role, he will continue to foster collaboration and technical excellence in groundwater science and engineering, supporting members through monthly technical talks, networking events and the biennial Australasian Groundwater Conference (AGC).

Since 1956, IAH has been the peak global organisation for groundwater professionals, promoting the sustainable management of groundwater resources and supporting ready access to safe drinking water worldwide.

It was an honour for Rachel Murray, Sue Nichols, Kara Tuck and Elliott Poulier to attend the 2026 CareerTrackers Gala Awards, a powerful celebration of excellence, connection and the growing impact of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander professionals across Australia.

A meaningful program that creates paid internship pathways for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander university students, CareerTrackers focuses on increasing representation in professional roles.

Kara, a CareerTrackers alumna and 2018-2023 Gold Diary Award winner, explains the significance of the Gala Awards:
“It’s an opportunity to celebrate blak excellence and the increase of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander professionals who continue to add value to our communities, the companies we work at, and the broader Australian society.”

The annual gala brought together more than 1,500 guests, celebrating current interns, alumni and partners. This year, Martin Luther King III joined as the keynote speaker, connecting a global legacy of equality with the ongoing story of First Nations leadership in Australia.
