Australia’s coast is the final resting place of more than 11,000 shipwrecks – roughly one wreck for every three kilometres of coastline.
Striking the Great Barrier Reef’s Myrmidon Reef in 1989 was Foam, a British topsail schooner.
Foam was on its way to the South Island Seas.
Sovereign was a paddle steamer from Moreton Island which was bound for Sydney when it was swamped by waves in the treacherous South Passage Bar, Moreton Bay, in 1847.
Aboriginal men risked their lives and rescued 10 people while the remaining 44 passengers and crew perished.
Foam and Sovereign are just two of the 14 “most compelling” shipwreck stories that were selected from the nominations of 46 Australian Maritime Museums and Heritage institutions. ....

A collection of music written and recorded by 12 Livingstone residents will be launched at a free concert in Yeppoon on Saturday.
The ‘No Covers: Original Music by Resilient People’ CD contains 12 original songs by people who have faced depression, domestic abuse, physical disability, and mental health problems.
The songs were written at a songwriters’ workshop held over eight weeks in Yeppoon, funded by Carinity Education Rockhampton.
Workshop facilitator Narelle Schirmer said the songwriters “found their own voice” writing the songs, many of which expressed the difficulties in their lives.
“The resilience of these people, the camaraderie and feeling of trust to share their stories and their feelings was inspiring,” she said. ....

The season was cut short last year due to the COVID 19 pandemic, and since then demand has been growing to remount the production.
