Testimonials

Hi Heatley & Michelle, I just wanted to express my heartfelt thanks to you both for your support and professionalism in helping me bring together the Rainbow Beach Cooloola Medical Centre. Without your belief in what I was trying to do, it would have been much harder to achieve such a successful outcome. Your newspaper deserves every accolade! Again, many many thanks.

Dear Michelle and Heatley Our copy of RBCCC News was delivered yester afternoon in Buchanan Avenue, TCB. We usually receive it on last day / first day of the month, well done! Thank you VERY much for our photo and article on page 7, for our advertisement, for referring to World Day of Prayer on March 2 in your editorial, as well as including our event time and location in “What’s On”. Much appreciated! Cheers, many many thanks.

I thank you for all the support your publication has given the organisations I am involved in. I do like the way you have turned my articles into several throughout the paper. I am very appreciative of your ongoing support as free exposure for community issues is hard to get and your paper has been very accommodating to all the organisations and events I am involved in. I thank you deeply. Keep up the good work. Have an awesome day,

I just wanted to send a short email to let you know about a wonderful thing that happened over the weekend. I received a message from Liz at Rainbow Beach Fruit, asking if I could meet her as she had some news for me. A local person who who wishes to remain anonymous approached Liz in the fruit shop, to ask how they could go about making a donation to the school’s kitchen garden. Apparently they saw an article in the recent Rainbow Beach Community News and wanted to make a donation of $1,000 … Read more

Hi Heatley & Michelle, I have been meaning to write for the last few months, as I so enjoy the Rainbow Beach Cooloola Coast Community News, that you put together each month. The August & September issues were exceptional. What a great service you provide us and all our visitors and guests, in producing such a readable and informative paper.

This testimonial is long overdue. I’ve used The RBCCCN in my classroom the last couple of years. In the subject History, students write a narrative about how the community remembers a past event. Rainbow Beach has a strong tradition when it comes to ANZAC day. The coverage of this event in the RBCCCN has enabled the class to use it as a source to help write our narratives. Many of our questions are answered by the photo spread, for example: Who attends? Is there a significant site? What a… Read more

To the team at Cooloola Coast Community News I’d just like to say a huge thank you on behalf of the Rainbow Beach State School P & C for your support with all of our community events. From the recent Pig Day Out event raising money for Melanoma to the raffles at the fishing comp, your ability to get the word out has been invaluable towards attendances and money raised. Going the extra mile by suggesting avenues for us to explore and sharing knowledge that comes from being a top quality new… Read more
