Australian Defence Force personnel supporting Operation Flood Assist 2022 were invited back to school recently for a show and tell session with a difference at the Rivers Secondary College in Lismore.

Australian Defence Force personnel talked to the students, played games and showed them over Bushmaster protected mobility vehicles, Zodiac inflated boats, trucks and other vehicles as part of an open day activity between doing flood-debris clearing tasks.

Australian Defence Force personnel remain on task or available for tasking in northern New South Wales, assisting with clean-up and disaster relief efforts in areas such as Lismore, Richmond Valley, Ballina, Casino, Clarence Valley, Evans Head and Tweed Heads. 
   
Defence continues to contribute to the Australian Government's support to the New South Wales Government under Operation Flood Assist 2022. During Operation Flood Assist 2022, approximately 7000 Australian Defence Force personnel were available for tasking in Queensland and New South Wales.
