Coomalie Australia Day Citizen of the Year Awards

Nominations for the 2023 Australia Day Citizen of the Year Awards for Coomalie Council are open and we need your help to give our community’s best the recognition they deserve.


We’re looking for someone who makes a difference in our community. Someone who contributes to our community and inspires those around them. They could be quiet achievers, community members or unknown heroes.


We are reaching out to people & organisations that can help us by identifying and nominating community members that are doing outstanding things. The Awards rely on members of the public to nominate, so we encourage you to consider putting someone forward in your networks for the 2023 Awards.


Your nominee could be recognised in one of our three categories:

• Citizen of the Year

• Young Citizen of the Year (16 to 30 years)

• Community Event of the Year


Nominating someone and highlighting the work they do can mean the world to a person and it’s easy to do. Just tell us who they are, what they've achieved and why you'd like to see them recognised. You can nominate online at www.citizenoftheyear.com.au.

Thursday 24 April 2025 MEDIA RELEASE Batchelor Community Postal Agency Update Batchelor residents are advised that all mail services have been temporarily diverted to the Adelaide River Store/Post Office while Council works with Australia Post to establish a new Community Postal Agency (CPA) at the Batchelor Visitor Information Centre. The short-term arrangement ensures Australia Post can continue to provide access to essential postal services during the transition. Council expects to complete fit-out works at the Visitor Centre next week, with staff training commencing simultaneously. Visitor information services will remain operational throughout this period. The community is also reminded that the CPA will only be a distribution point for incoming mail and parcels. Other postal services will need to be accessed at other Postal Agencies in the greater Darwin Region. An opening date for the new CPA will be confirmed by the end of next week, pending successful completion of the fit-out and staff readiness. The facility will combine postal services with existing visitor information services, maintaining Batchelor’s role as a key gateway to Litchfield National Park. Council appreciates the community’s patience and assures residents that the Council’s interim CPA will keep mail services local while supporting tourism in the region. For further information, please contact: Coomalie Community Government Council 22 Cameron Road, Batchelor NT Phone: 08 8976 0058 Email: mail@coomalie.nt.gov.au ENDS
