What happens on the bus, stays on the bus. Not in the case of the weekly Maxi Taxi trips organised by Experience Eumundi for local residents no longer able to drive!
The Thursday morning shopping trips provide far more than transport. For many passengers they have far-reaching positive impacts on their lives. Simply looking forward to a morning out and catching up with friends is just the beginning. The prospect of selecting items from the shelves themselves, finding a bargain, or choosing alternative ingredients for basic meals, provides a sense of agency.
In a region such as ours with limited public transport, losing the ability to drive can significantly reduce freedom and increase isolation, particularly with health challenges. The result can be a growing sense of helplessness and hopelessness.
Funded through market parking revenue, Experience Eumundi hopes these weekly trips help participants maintain their confidence, self-esteem and independence. All the while staying connected to the community they helped shape and support throughout their lives, and which now offers them a helping hand in return.

The Noosa Pengari Childrenโs Festival returns on 23 August, marking a special milestone as Noosa Pengari Steiner School celebrates 30yrs of education, creativity and community in the Noosa hinterland.
The story began quietly when in the mid-1990s a small group of families gathered at a Steiner study group, drawn by the idea of a different kind of education. In 1996 that dream opened its doors, with a preschool group and a single combined Class 1 and 2 of just 10 children.
There was barely a tree on the site, and for the first year the primary class was held off-site at the Noosaville Sea Scout Hall, where families packed the whole classroom away twice a week so the hall could still be used. Two century old Queenslanders were relocated to the grounds to become the earliest classrooms, one the former principal's residence from Cooroy State School, the other the old Cooroy Railway Station master's residence. Getting them ready took what one founding staff member fondly remembers as โmad working beesโ and an enormous amount of goodwill.
