What a fun day in Moorooka

Police and Volunteers in Policing (ViPs) from Upper Mount Gravatt and Centenary Crime Prevention Unit and local crews from Moorooka Police Station attended the Moorooka State School Fete on Saturday, July 21.
Attendees enjoyed meeting their local police officers and even checking out the inside of a police car, specially the kids!
Officers want to remind parents to reinforce how police can help children in times of need. If you are a parent who tells your children that if you are naughty, “Police will be called”, please don’t. Police want your children to be able to approach us at any time if they need help and not be afraid.
Thank you to the members of the public for coming and saying hello on the weekend and telling us how much you appreciate us being there. We really had a great day, hope you did too.

River to Rooftop, Brisbane City

On Friday, July 20, police from South Brisbane and North Brisbane District completed the River to Rooftop stair run at 111 Eagle Street, Brisbane City.
The River to Rooftop event supports and raises money for the Women’s Legal Service, who provide free legal and welfare help to Queensland women and their children at risk of domestic and family violence.
It was excellent to see all the individual competitors and teams challenge themselves to climbing 1040 stairs for such a great cause.
Although there may have been some friendly rivalry for extra motivation, the police team were all smiles afterwards.
Well done to everyone that participated!
