Ezra is one of our Year 7 students from a remote community in the Northern Territory who now proudly calls Wanggulay his home away from home.

We are incredibly proud to see Ezra and our young men featured by ABC Far North, highlighting the importance of culturally safe boarding and the opportunities created through connection, education, and community.

Wanggulay is Queensland's first Indigenous co-designed, purpose-built boarding house specifically for young Indigenous men. It represents our shared belief in the potential of every student who comes through our doors.

Thank you to ABC Far North and producer Juanita Soper for sharing Ezra's story.

🚂 WATCH OUT – CANE TRAINS ABOUT 🚂

With the 2026 cane crushing season commencing in June, MSF Sugar is reminding families and our community about the importance of cane rail safety.

Cane trains operate 24 hours a day during the crushing season and carry very heavy loads, meaning they cannot stop quickly. Playing near railway tracks, climbing on moving trains, riding trail bikes along rail lines or fishing from railway bridges can have devastating consequences.

Please talk to your children about staying safe around cane railways and remember:

⚠️ Stay away from locomotives and cane bins
⚠️ Don’t play around railway lines
⚠️ Never walk between cane bins
⚠️ Never go onto a cane railway bridge
⚠️ Never walk behind a train – drivers may not see you
⚠️ Stop, look both ways and listen before crossing tracks
⚠️ Obey flashing lights and Give Way signage at crossings

Tampering with railway points or placing objects on tracks is extremely dangerous and can cause derailments resulting in serious injury or death.

Let’s work together to keep our children and community safe this cane season.
