Salutations from us
AS we come to the close of another remarkable year across far north Queensland, I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to our readers, clients and supporters who make The Observer such an important part of our community.
Carl Portella, publisher of Cairns Local News
Christmas is a time for reflection, gratitude and connection, and it’s your ongoing support that allows us to continue telling the stories that matter to our region.
In 2025, we’ve witnessed the strength, resilience and generosity that define our local towns and the people who call them home.
From small businesses working tirelessly to serve our community, to everyday locals achieving extraordinary things, it has been our privilege to share these moments with you.
On behalf of the entire team at The Observer, I wish you a Merry Christmas and a prosperous, healthy New Year. We look forward to continuing to serve you in 2025.
- Carl Portella, publisher of The Observer Cassowary Coast
