Police attended the dog brekkie at Yoorala Street Parklands, The Gap on Sunday September 9 to meet the furry friends and their companions.

We were able to offer security information and advice to the visitors that attended the event to learn more about Dogs on Patrol.
Visitors learned how to continue keeping their own neighbourhoods staying safe all whilst walking their dog in their own neighbourhood.
Dogs on Patrol encourages members of the community to keep an eye out for suspicious activity, as well as how to report it.
It was also a great opportunity for residents to meet their fellow dog-owners and get to know their neighbours!

This week is Child Protection Week.
Protecting children means a lot of different things to a great many people, but to the police officers who work at the frontline of child victim-based crimes, protecting children is the reason they get up every morning.
These officers see the worst of the worst, become intertwined in the terribly sad stories and witness first-hand the trauma that extends far beyond the day of the crime.
They are investigators, they are listeners and they are often the foundation of support for the victim who takes the bravest step to stand up and speak out.
We are using this week as a way to thank these men and women, to shine a light on the officers across the state working in the Child Protection Investigation Units for their commitment, their drive and the countless hours they spend working to keep the most vulnerable members of our community

On the weekend we took the opportunity to have a day for the kids at Zarraffa’s, Grovely.
As I’m sure all parents know, little eyes and ears don’t miss a thing we do when we are driving, and we all need to set a good example to ensure kids grow up being safe around the road.
Family friendly days also help us to break down the barriers with little ones, build trust and let them know we are there to help.
Grovely staff, awesome as always
We had a marked motorcycle and car for the kids to play on and they had a great time, getting some free giveaways from us and also some yummy treats courtesy of Zarraffa’s.
Don’t worry, you’ll grow into it!
Some of the big kids had a play on the motorcycle as well.

After we had finished with all the fun with the kids we did some Random Breath Testing in the
