A group of young Australian aerial athletes are preparing to make history as they become the first-ever Team Australia to compete at the International Aerial Arts World Championships in Aruba this August.
Selected on an invitation-only basis, the team features athletes from across Australia, including several from the Sunshine Coast and wider Qld region.
For many of these young athletes, this opportunity represents years of hard work, dedication and training finally paying off. Alongside school, jobs and everyday life, they have spent countless hours preparing routines, building strength and flexibility, fundraising, and working towards their dream of representing their country.
Raya Cargill, 12, of Noosa, said, “I feel really proud to represent Australia in aerials because it shows all the hard work has been worth it. I also feel very honoured to be selected, especially with so many amazing aerialists in Australia. I hope our team can make Australia proud and show the rest of the world what Aussie kids can do.”
The Australian Aerial Arts Organisation (AUAAO), working alongside the International Aerial Arts Organisation (IAAO), is focused on helping create stronger structure and pathways for aerial athletes within Australia, particularly for those wanting opportunities to compete internationally. The wider long-term vision is to continue growing recognition for aerial arts as a legitimate competitive sport, with hopes of one day seeing it recognised alongside other major international sporting disciplines – and potentially even at Olympic level in the future.

SCC’s invasive weeds project, funded by the Environment Levy, ensures levy contributions are reinvested into protecting the region’s environment and supporting resilient landscapes for the future.
This 5-year project conducted a variety of weed management control options and research trials using innovative technologies. The project explored drone mapping and artificial intelligence to detect invasive weeds at scale, environmental DNA (eDNA) sampling to identify weeds spreading through catchments and waterways, and trials of alternative control methods to reduce long term reliance on herbicides.
Why worry about weeds? In Australia, invasive weeds were cited as the number 1 leading cause of biodiversity loss and species extinction. It’s a billion-dollar problem. The CSIRO estimated the financial cost of managing Australia’s 3,000 invasive weed species to be around $25B – and add to that the immense cost of managing the environmental damage caused by these pest plants.
Council will run 2 more Weed Army events and workshops with practical, hands-on demonstrations that show participants how to work with the land, not against it, restore habitat, protect wildlife and save themselves time and money in the long term.
