A beautiful new boutique, Satmaya Spirit has opened at 77 Memorial Dr, Eumundi bringing a vibrant splash of global colour to the town. The store features a thoughtfully curated collection of ethically sourced clothing, jewellery and homewares, with each piece handcrafted in partnership with small family-run businesses in India, celebrating authenticity, quality and craftsmanship.
Located next door to Cinnabar Soul and across the road from the Eumundi Markets, Satmaya Spirit draws inspiration from the rich colours, textures and traditions of India, Morocco and Egypt. The boutique is the creation of owner Saphira, who has thoughtfully hand-picked every piece to create a welcoming space for those seeking something unique for themselves or a meaningful gift for someone special.
Saphira said, “Eumundi was just the right place to open Satmaya Spirit because of its sense of community. The people know each other, take time to connect and are incredibly welcoming, there is a real appreciation for local businesses.” ... See MoreSee Less

Sunshine Coast Council's (SCC) Wild HeART Student Art Prize is back for 2026. SCC invites young artists to step outside, connect with nature and turn that experience into original artwork.
Hosted at the Maroochy Bushland Botanic Garden, the council event celebrates children and young people’s creative excellence and their connection to Australia’s remarkable biodiversity.
If you have a young artist at home who loves the natural world, encourage them to explore a local environment, choose an Australian plant, animal or fungus that captures their imagination, and enter their 2-D, original artwork before submissions close on 5 October.
Students can feature Australian fauna, flora and/or fungi, and with the Sunshine Coast’s rich natural environments on our doorstep, the hardest part may be deciding which species to focus on.
Last year, Abouka, a finalist in the under-8 category, found inspiration in Ninderry and created a coloured pencil and ink artwork of a bandicoot.
Council encourages students to spend time observing the places and species that inspire them. Eumundi Conservation Park, Doonan Creek Environment Reserve and Verrierdale Rise Nature Refuge are just a few local spots where families can slow down, look closely and discover a subject with a real story to tell.
The free art prize is open to students enrolled in Prep to Yr12, from 5-18yrs, from the Sunshine Coast and neighbouring local government areas.
Entries are considered across 3 age categories, with finalists to be showcased in a special exhibition trail at Maroochy Regional Bushland Botanic Garden during December 2026 and January 2027. ... See MoreSee Less

Pink up Cooroy returns on 23 October with a fabulous Pink Up breakfast at the Cooroy RSL that promises community spirit, fun, generosity and plenty of pink.
In 2025, Cooroy community dynamo Carol Christiansen raised $41,209 for the McGrath Foundation through Pink Up events. Money raised provides free support for people affected by any form of cancer. Cooroy was the fourth-highest regional town fundraiser in Australia, behind only Milton, Penrith and Berry.
Every day 450 Australians are diagnosed with cancer, which translates to 1 in 2 people suffering from some form of cancer in their lifetime. The foundation began in 2005 when cricket legend Glenn McGrath’s wife Jane, was helped through her final weeks by a specialist cancer nurse.
Jane, Glenn and friend Tracey Bevan, believing that “no-one has to go it alone” initially focused on breast cancer. Since Jane’s death in 2008 the foundation has grown, through the sea of pink at annual Pink Cricket Tests, fun runs and Pink Up your Town initiatives. In 2025, 30 towns “pinked up” across Australia.
Carol Christiansen served on both Cooroy Schools’ P&Cs, numerous sporting clubs, is a Cooroy Chamber of Commerce Life Member and Mill Board President, and negotiated with Noosa Council for Cooroy’s own library, volunteering there for many years, especially with events. When Carol was asked to take on the breast cancer fundraiser, it quickly became a cause close to her heart. After meeting then-new residents Glenn and Sara McGrath, her support for the foundation grew into a 5yr passion, backed by generous local businesses, Cooroy RSL and her dedicated team of volunteers.
Carol is pouring her energy into this year’s Pink Breakfast, following the recent loss of her wonderfully supportive husband Garry (Goo), confident local communities will once again respond generously. Together we can make a difference. Cooroy RSL has already donated $2,000 towards the event.
A $14,500 stunning pink pearl necklace is the major raffle prize with tickets at $20 available now from Cooroy RSL and Pink Up Cooroy Facebook page. Winners will be announced at the breakfast along with winner of the Pets in Pink photo competition.
Already participating are Cooroy-Eumundi Cricket Club, Noosa District SHS, Cooroy Horse & Pony Club and several local businesses with a prize for best decorated business.
Get your friends together and book a table to decorate as tickets are already selling fast. “The event not only raises funds for the McGrath Foundation but also strengthens the bonds that make our local community so special,” said Carol.
Tickets are $50pp, which includes a choice of breakfast. The event will be held at Cooroy RSL 25 Maple St. Doors open 6.30am for a 7am start. There will be raffles, prizes for best dressed and amazing auctions. For bookings call the Cooroy RSL on 5447 6131. Visit: FB Pink up Cooroy. ... See MoreSee Less
