Queensland Police officers and Cultural Liaison Officers joined the Zillmere NAIDOC event, staffing a community stall and taking part in activities celebrating culture and connection.
Officers from Gateway Crime Prevention and North Brisbane Highway Patrol attended the Northside NAIDOC Community Fun Day on Thursday, 9 July.
They were joined by Cultural Liaison Officers, who worked alongside police at a stall and engaged with community members throughout the annual celebration.
Police Stall at Zillmere NAIDOC Event
The police stall gave officers and liaison staff an opportunity to speak with visitors during the program of performances, information displays and family activities.
A police motorcycle was one of the most popular features, with children and adults given an opportunity to try it out.
Cluedo, the Queensland Police dog mascot, also appeared during the event. The mascot was photographed sitting on the police motorcycle with officers.
The motorcycle and mascot formed part of the police presence at the community day, which focused on culture, community and connection during NAIDOC Week.
Officers Meet Native Wildlife
Police and Cultural Liaison Officers also took part in encounters with Australian native animals during the event.
A Cultural Liaison Officer was photographed holding a goanna alongside Cluedo, while another photograph showed a police officer holding a wombat.
The wildlife encounters were among the range of activities available during the Northside celebration.
