With nearly two decades in real estate, Nathan Henderson has built a career grounded in experience, local knowledge, and a genuine understanding of people. After working as an agent for several years, he gained his Principal’s licence in 2007, marking the beginning of a long-standing presence in the Hinchinbrook property market. Nathan specialises in residential sales, rentals, and rural properties, with a particular appreciation for the people behind each transaction. “Residential sales and rentals and rural sales are the bulk of our work and having been around for a while, the people are the best part. We are truly grateful when people are referred to us and we have sold to parents and then children in the same family. Being an agent means helping people navigate an important transition in their life.” With a rural background, Nathan values getting out on the land and understanding how properties function within their environment and community. “It’s easy to focus too locally… we take care to understand what is happening outside of our area to ensure we are reacting quickly to changes in our market for clients.” “Understanding what people are aiming to achieve and when, helps us give advice and strategy in selling their property. We assist with the happiest and saddest moments in people's lives and we are always grateful for the trust our clients put in us.” What advice would you give to first-home buyers looking to settle in the region? “Avoid the FOMO, don’t rush unless it’s the right place… build a relationship with agents so you have a chance of seeing things as they come on the market.”

Last week I was in Brisbane for Parliament, continuing to advocate for the issues that matter most to our region, before returning home to spend time across the Hinchinbrook electorate. A key focus during the sitting week was the need for Queensland to become more self-sufficient, particularly when it comes to critical inputs like fuel and fertiliser. For communities like ours, these are important issues that directly impact the cost of living, our farmers, and the strength of our local economy. We have seen how global events can disrupt supply chains and drive-up costs. That’s why I have continued to push for greater sovereign capability, so Queensland is less exposed to international uncertainty. The Crisafulli Government is committed to strengthening this self-sufficiency and ensuring regional communities like Hinchinbrook are better protected into the future. We also passed the third tranche of Adult Crime, Adult Time laws in Parliament. This builds on the work already underway to restore community safety after a decade where victim numbers rose 193% under the former government. While we are starting to see some early signs of progress from stronger laws and a more focused approach, I know from conversations across our community that there is more to do. Turning around long-term challenges takes time, but the commitment remains clear: to back our police, hold offenders accountable, and make our communities safer. On Saturday, I had the privilege of attending a number of ANZAC Day services across the electorate, including the Dawn Service, RSL service, cemetery service, as well as services at Forrest Beach, Halifax and Cardwell. Each service was moving in its own way, and it was encouraging to see such strong attendance across all locations. It speaks to the deep respect our community holds for those who have served, and the importance of continuing to honour their sacrifice. It is always a privilege to stand alongside our community on ANZAC Day and reflect on the values of service, mateship and sacrifice that continue to shape our nation. As always, I will continue to take the voices of Hinchinbrook to Brisbane, while staying closely connected to our community here at home.

The Crisafulli Government is launching a new international prize for eight high-achieving Queensland students and two teachers. Successful applicants will fly to London to visit the birthplace of Westminster democracy and will undertake trips to Canberra and Brisbane parliaments. Applications for the inaugural program open on Monday 18 May to Queensland Year 9 students. The Crisafulli Government is delivering a plan for Queensland’s future and supporting the State’s students and teachers. The Crisafulli Government is delivering a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Queensland students and teachers to experience the birthplace of parliamentary democracy through a prestigious education prize. Launching today, the Westminster Prize is open to all Year 9 students across Queensland’s state schools, non-state schools, and homeschool settings who have a strong interest in civics and citizenship. It’s just one of the ways the Crisafulli Government is delivering a plan for Queensland’s future after a decade of decline under Labor. Eight successful students will fly to London next year with two teacher chaperones to experience first-hand aspects of the Westminster system of government, which is the foundation of Australia’s parliamentary democracy. The prize also includes trips to Canberra and Brisbane parliaments where students will gain valuable knowledge, insights and experiences with Australia’s political system. The Westminster Prize is a new initiative from the Crisafulli Government and adds to existing excellence programs including the Premier’s ANZAC Prize, the Premier’s Reading Challenge and the Peter Doherty Awards. Minister for Education John-Paul Langbroek said the Westminster Prize aimed to strengthen Queensland students’ understanding of civics, citizenship and democratic participation. “This exciting new program offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for our students to travel to London, Canberra and Brisbane to learn about our rich history and political system,” Minister Langbroek said. “Today’s students are our future leaders, and the Crisafulli Government’s new Westminster Prize is a fantastic opportunity for them to travel, explore and deepen their understanding of democratic values. “Through the Westminster Prize, the eight students will grow their understanding of Queensland’s parliamentary system, Australia’s federal democracy and the Westminster model in the UK. “As well as their travels, the prize winners will deliver a local civics project focused on a community issue, applying their learning to real-world contexts.” British Consul General for Queensland and the Northern Territory Richard Cowin said he was delighted to support the fantastic initiative. “This exciting award gives students an amazing opportunity to see how the Westminster system works in real life and to experience the democratic traditions that connect the UK and Australia,” Mr Cowin said. “In a fast-changing world, understanding our shared values and approaches is more important than ever. “This prize will enable a lucky group of young Queenslanders to experience these principles firsthand and draw on them throughout their lives.” Applications to be part of the inaugural Westminster Prize open on 18 May and close 31 July, with interviews and selection in August and September.

One of the greatest privileges of this role is witnessing first-hand the confidence our local businesses continue to place in our community.
This past week, I had the honour of officially opening a new chapter for one of our district’s proud family-run enterprises – Cantatore Pharmacy.
Brendan, Atlanta, and their team have shown tremendous faith in Hinchinbrook by expanding operations, investing in new facilities, and strengthening the local services we rely on, especially as we live in one of Queensland’s oldest demographics. Their commitment reflects what we all know to be true — Hinchinbrook is a place where businesses can prosper, families can grow, and community spirit thrives.
It’s equally exciting to see construction underway on Moduline’s new 5,000 m² automated factory and showroom on Herbert Street — a milestone that promises cutting-edge innovation, local jobs, and a vibrant boost to our town centre.
These decisions are never made lightly. Local businesses fight hard every day — through challenges, competition, and uncertainty — yet they continue to back our district.
They choose Hinchinbrook. They choose our people. And in doing so, they help build the strong, vibrant community we are so proud of.
As we head into the festive season, I’m reminded of how deeply our local businesses invest in us — not just through bricks and mortar, but through the countless ways they give back.
They sponsor sporting clubs, donate to community groups, support events, and contribute to the liveability and wellbeing of residents across the Shire. Every dollar spent locally strengthens that cycle of support.
That’s why I encourage everyone to make the most of Christmas Late Night Shopping on Thursday 18 December 2025. It’s a great opportunity to pick up gifts, enjoy the festive atmosphere, and show appreciation to the hardworking business owners who continue to put their faith in Hinchinbrook.
Shopping local isn’t just a transaction; it’s an investment in our future. When our businesses succeed, our entire community succeeds.
Thank you to everyone for your ongoing contribution to our district, and to all local businesses for your unwavering commitment to Hinchinbrook. Your confidence in our community speaks volumes, and we are proud to stand with you this Christmas season and beyond.

Hello Hinchinbrook,
I wanted to share another update from the Hinchinbrook Drainage Advisory Group.
Since my last councillor column, there’s been some progress.
One of the key concerns — though certainly not the only one — has been blockages in mangrove drains and the challenges in maintaining these vital and fragile areas so they function as healthy waterways.
The Lower Herbert Water Management Authority (LHWMA) has successfully obtained the necessary documentation to carry out maintenance clearing on the access track to the Mandam Waterway.
Once this is complete, LHWMA will be able to conduct routine instream maintenance more efficiently and safely.
Following Mandam, other trial sites — Rifle Range Creek, Swampy Creek, and the outflow of Alligator Ponds — are also planned for rehabilitation as soon as the required documentation is received, hopefully early next year.
The group has conducted several onsite visits to these areas, which have helped government departments gain a clearer understanding of the mangrove maintenance work needed in the Lower Herbert Catchment.
While these trial sites represent only a small portion of our catchment, the aim is to establish a clear, repeatable process that works for landholders, ratepayers, HRIT, and LHWMA.
Ultimately, the goal is legislative change to make these activities “Acceptable Development,” enabling much shorter timeframes for planning and undertaking the work.
It’s always great to pick up a copy of Hinchinbrook Life and see what’s happening across our Shire — thank you for the opportunity to share this update.
As the year draws to a close and we look forward to a well-earned break with family and friends, please stay safe and take time to enjoy everything our Shire has to offer.
Finally, I’d like to wish everyone a wonderful Christmas in Hinchinbrook.
As rural communities wrapped up another year of planting, harvesting and hard work on the land, World Soil Day on 5 December offered an important reminder of the quiet powerhouse beneath our feet — the soil that sustains farms, families and entire regions.
Often taken for granted, soil underpins Australia’s agricultural output, contributing around $90 billion to the national economy each year. It’s also one of the most complex living ecosystems on Earth, home to more than a quarter of the planet’s biodiversity. From tiny microbes to earthworms and insects, healthy soil supports life well beyond what we see on the surface.
Globally, an estimated 95 per cent of food production relies directly or indirectly on soil. For rural communities, that makes healthy soil fundamental not just to local farm productivity, but to long-term food security, economic strength and the resilience of regional landscapes.
World Soil Day — a United Nations initiative held annually on 5 December — aims to raise awareness of soil as a vital natural resource. This year’s theme, Healthy Soil for Healthy Cities, highlights the growing connection between rural food production and urban communities that rely on it.
Here in Australia, efforts to protect and improve soil health continue through the National Soil Strategy and National Soil Action Plan — the country’s first long-term national policy dedicated to soil. Backed by more than $90 million in federal investment, these initiatives support soil monitoring, research, information sharing and on-ground programs across farming regions.
Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry Policy Group Deputy Secretary Matt Lowe said soil remains central to Australia’s prosperity and resilience.
“Soil is an integral part of the Australian landscape,” he said.
“It supports us all, no matter where we live, and provides essential ecosystem and production services that contributes to Australia’s economic, environmental and social wellbeing.
“Soil also has cultural significance, and its health impacts biodiversity, water and air quality, human health and plays a vital role in building resilience to natural disasters and adapting to and mitigating climate change.”
As the wet season approaches and preparations begin for the year ahead, World Soil Day serves as a timely reminder: strong, healthy soil is the foundation on which rural Australia grows — and protecting it benefits communities far and wide.
Queensland’s much-loved giant mud crab populations are thriving, with a major new study reaffirming the State Government’s commitment to maintaining a world-class and sustainable fisheries industry.
A recently completed study led by Queensland’s Department of Primary Industries (DPI) and co-funded by the Australian Government through the Fisheries Research and Development Corporation (FRDC) has confirmed that there is no current threat to the sustainability of the species. The research highlights the effectiveness of existing regulations, including the male-only harvest policy and the 15-centimetre legal minimum size limit.
The extensive project analysed approximately 20,000 giant mud crabs collected from across the state, using cutting-edge genetic techniques and satellite tagging to examine stock structure, monitor population health, and deepen the understanding of mud crab biology—particularly the spawning migration patterns of females.
DPI Principal Fisheries Scientist and lead researcher Dr Julie Robins said the findings provide strong scientific reassurance that Queensland’s management frameworks are successfully supporting healthy populations.
“Giant mud crabs are an iconic species and a vital part of Queensland’s fisheries, with our state accounting for 64% of Australia’s commercial harvest,” Dr Robins said.
“A significant success was the robust genetic analysis of the mud crab populations along the east coast and the Gulf of Carpentaria.
“Queensland’s male minimum legal-size limit ensures a proportion of mature males are available to reproduce and over 90% of females sampled were mated and getting ready to spawn. This means there’s no shortage of mature crabs to produce the next lot of offspring.”
Dr Robins said the research not only expanded scientific knowledge but also provided crucial biological reference points for future management.
“This study has added tremendous value to our collective knowledge and laid the groundwork for future discussions about mud crab management in Queensland,” she said.
"The collaborative nature of this project, working side-by-side with the commercial fishers, was invaluable. Their local knowledge was key to successfully gathering data on this iconic species."
As giant mud crabs remain a Queensland favourite—both commercially and recreationally—the study’s findings offer welcome confirmation that current sustainability measures are working, ensuring the species continues to flourish for generations to come.
If you’ve wondered when you last spotted a Christmas beetle, you’re not alone. Many Australians have noticed fewer of these iconic, shiny insects in recent years. But there’s hope: researchers are calling on the community to help track their return through the annual Christmas Beetle Count.
Since the 1st of October, iNaturalist reports there have already been 226 sightings this season. The project, run by Invertebrates Australia, aims to understand the population trends of Christmas beetles and investigate why numbers may be declining.
Participants are encouraged to count and photograph any beetles they see, contributing to a national database that helps researchers solve the mystery of the Christmas beetle’s changing numbers. The sightings collected also help track species diversity, seasonal patterns, and distribution.
The project covers beetles from the genera Anoplognathus, Calloodes, and Repsimus, and sightings are recorded across Australia. So far, over 20,000 observations have been logged, with popular species including the Washerwoman (Anoplognathus porosus), Duck Billed Beetle (Anoplognathus montanus), and Emerald Tip Beetle (Anoplognathus brunnipennis).
To take part, locals can visit www.inaturalist.org/projects/christmas-beetle-count to submit observations. For those unsure how to identify the beetles, the Australian Museum’s Xmas Beetle ID Guide app is available on both iOS and Android.
By joining the Christmas Beetle Count, residents not only get a chance to enjoy a festive outdoor activity but also contribute valuable data to help protect these native insects for generations to come!

2025 has been a year to remember at Gilroy Santa Maria College, marked by outstanding achievements across the arts, sport, academics and community life.
The Arts Retrospective at the Gilroy Santa Maria Centre was an evening showcasing student talent in music, dance, sculpture, painting, photography, and makeup design. Year 11 and 12 Hospitality students played a key role, planning and delivering the event while preparing and serving a four-course dinner.
A significant milestone was celebrated as the College marked 75 years of education, faith and community connection.
Hospitality students continued to impress with The Red Lantern, an Asian-inspired degustation event designed and managed by senior students completing their Certificate II in Hospitality.
Sporting achievements were a highlight of the year, with the Gilroy Velocity Raptors travelling to Germany to compete on the world stage. School teams recorded strong results across football, netball, futsal, touch and cricket, including multiple regional and zone championships, while many students earned NQ representative honours.
Creative excellence was recognised for 2 students at the Hinchinbrook Birdlife Awards and the Hinchinbrook Art Awards.
Academic success was equally impressive, with 11 students achieving 100 percent results across a range of subjects and a record eight early university offers.
Several students achieved exceptional individual success in 2025. Sophie was named among the top three finalists in Queensland for Trainee of the Year and completed a Certificate III in Health Support Assistance through the Deadly Start Program. Conor secured a school-based apprenticeship with DC Auto Electrical Works and is completing a Certificate III in Automotive Electrical Technology.

After the overwhelming success of the first Late Night Shopping evening in late November, the Hinchinbrook Shire Council is gearing up to deliver another festive celebration on Thursday, 18th December from 5pm.
Last month’s event drew hundreds of enthusiastic shoppers who filled Lannercost, Palm Terrace, Herbert, and Cartwright Streets, as well as Hinchinbrook Central and Mercer Lane. The expanded precinct layout proved a winner, giving locals and visitors the opportunity to explore a wider range of retailers while showcasing the diversity of Ingham’s shopping districts. The atmosphere came alive thanks to Christmas carols from the Ingham Theatre Group and a lively performance by the talented local duo Obsession who kept the festive spirit flowing.
With retailers and market stalls embracing the season by offering discounts, special deals, and Black Friday–inspired bargains, the first event created a real sense of community buzz. Restaurants, cafés and a pop-up barbecue joined in by serving discounted dinners and sweet treats to keep shoppers fueled as they browsed their way through the precincts.
To keep the festive momentum going, some of your favourites have been confirmed for the second evening, with market stall holders and local shops confirmed to keep the shopping party going.
Families can look forward to Santa making a return appearance in NQ Makers Function Room, where you can snap your own Christmas phots. With the success of November’s event still echoing through the community, this second instalment offers one more chance to support local shops, discover new favourites, and enjoy a relaxed night of Christmas shopping under the summer evening sky.
If you missed the first event or simply want to back your favourite boutiques, stalls, and local traders again, make sure you mark your calendar.
WHAT: Hinchinbrook Shire Council’s Late Night Shopping
WHEN: Thursday 18th December 2025, 5pm to 9pm
WHERE: Ingham township precincts, including Lannercost Street, Mercer Lane & Palm Terrace.
