Mid Year Trip 2017

Mid-Year Trip 2017

​This year the QUT Big Lift crew travelled to Dalby, Injune, Roma and Chinchilla for an incredible 7 day trip which ran from 3rd July- 9th July. In each town amazing new experiences, stories and learning happened. We our all so grateful and humbled to collectively share in such an adventure. Service learning trips like these help us to engage and open up our eyes to new perspectives.
 
We started our journey from Brisbane were we all packed the bus with our light baggage (some not so light) and hit the road. The bus became our new abode over the 7 days as we clocked up 13 hours and 26 minutes (according to google maps). That meant for over 1,138km we were able to spread the Big Lift Love, whether that be in Dalby, Injune, Roma or Chinchilla. Each town truly had something unique to offer us all, and we genuinely felt very touched by the welcoming community spirit. Overall, we gained such insightful knowledge about what regional and rural life is like for many, including how the Coal Seam Gas industries is having both positive and negative impacts and learnt about the many other struggles and joys that rural life brings. Click and check out more about what we did and see  in Dalby, Injune, Roma and Chinchilla. 
 
Once again, QUT Big Lift is so thankful to have had this opportunity to visit each of these wonderful towns and it would not have been possible without support from family, friends, QUT and the towns themselves. We can’t wait for our next service learning trip!
