Our story
The Kedron Brook Catchment Branch, proudly part of the Wildlife Preservation Society of Queensland, champions the protection of the 29-km Kedron Brook and its sprawling 110-km2 catchment in Brisbane’s northern suburbs. From Ferny Hills’ forested headwaters to the tidal reaches of Moreton Bay, we’re a group of volunteers committed to maintaining and restoring the significant environmental values of this urban waterway through advocacy, supporting bushcare groups, coordinating citizen science activities and undertaking environmental education.
The branch is represented by an Executive Committee, which collaborates with residents, government, schools and businesses in working towards a healthy and balanced ecosystem. The branch is proudly supported by Brisbane City Council Community Conservation Partnerships.
What we do
Citizen science
We ignite and sustain curiosity across the catchment, with citizen science activities such as birdwatching walks, water-quality monitoring, fish snapshot, cane toad busts, butterfly and moth surveys, glider nest box monitoring and fungi walks to encourage the community to track the biodiversity of the catchment. For almost 10 years, we participated in the QUT Student Catchment Immersion Program (SCIP), which engages young leaders, while coordinating biodiversity monitoring and innovative projects—like jewel beetle biocontrol releases to fight Cat’s Claw Creeper—to tackle ecological challenges.
Supporting bushcare and other community groups
There are ten active bushcare groups across the Kedron Brook catchment that are located within the Brisbane City Council and City of Moreton Bay Councils. The branch supports these and other groups by promoting their events and activities on our website and social media pages, working collaboratively with the groups on citizen science and rehabilitation activities. We also auspice grants, ensuring these groups have the resources to undertake small- to medium-sized restoration projects from grants and other funding opportunities.
Meetings
The Executive Committee meet on the first Tuesday of the month (excluding January) via Zoom.
