All in a week in Holland Park

Officers from Holland Park Station have been having a great time attending heaps of school fetes and under eight’s days before the school holidays.
We manage to fit these in while keeping on top of our other core duties and responding to the Police radio. Here are a few other things we have been up to:

Our colleague Senior Constable McCauley from Capalaba Station started this fantastic initiative last Christmas in conjunction with the Griffith University Lions craft group to knit teddies and brighten the day of some of the kids we meet.
Senior Constable Plaschke from Holland Park has now secured some teddies for our division.
It’s obvious the love and care that goes into making each of the teddies and we thank the Lions craft group for their amazing work; Constable Grant and I couldn’t choose just one favourite.

Constable Smith and Senior Constable Baillie attended Nursery Road Special School for their Heroes

Officers hit the beat at Sunnybank

Officers from across the South Brisbane Police District were on hand to provide timely personal and home safety information to patrons across several shopping precincts around Sunnybank over the weekend including Market Square, Sunny Park and Sunnybank Plaza.

“The information we are providing will help everyone to stay alert and stay safe,” Acting Sergeant Ellis said.
In addition to handing out invaluable resources, officers were also providing advice to patrons on a number of topics including cyber safety, pedestrian safety and the best ways to contact police when needed.
