The township of Nhulunbuy has a population of around 3,200 and is situated in East Arnhem Land on the north western tip of the Gulf of Carpentaria 600 kilometres due east of Darwin. It is considered a vital lifeline to the outer regions with respect to the provision of shopping, hospital and health care services. Each year during the monsoonal season road access between communities within the region are not accessible by road and residents of these communities become dependent on air travel to access their basic needs. Gove Airport is located 15 kilometres from Nhulunbuy and services the communities of Nhulunbuy, Yirrkala, Gunyangara and some 80 other communities within East Arnhem Land. It also provides residents and visitors of East Arnhem Land a link with interstate and international travel through the gateway airports of Cairns International and Darwin International. It is operated by the Nhulunbuy Corporation Limited under a Deed of Agreement with Rio Tinto Alcan. Because of its strategic position, Gove Airport is a nominated alternate aerodrome for certain domestic and international carriers when access to their planned destination airport is inaccessible due to inclement weather or technical issues.

  • Northern Territory June 2012 Monthly Weather Review Northern Territory June 2012
    Monthly Weather Review Northern Territory June 2012 Monthly Weather Review Northern Territory June 2012 The Monthly Weather Review - Northern Territory is produced twelve times each year by the Australian Bureau of Meteorology's Northern Territory Climate Services Centre. It is intended to provide a concise but informative overview of the temperatures, rainfall and significant weather events in Northern Territory for the month. To keep the Monthly Weather Review as timely as possible, much of the information is based on electronic reports. Although every effort is made to ensure the accuracy of these reports, the results can be considered only preliminary until complete quality control procedures have been carried out. Major discrepancies will be noted in later issues. We are keen to ensure that the Monthly Weather Review is appropriate to the needs of its readers. If you have any comments or suggestions, please do not hesitate to contact us: By mail Northern Territory Climate Services Centre Bureau of Meteorology PO Box 40050 Casuarina NT 0811 AUSTRALIA By telephone (08) 8920 3813 By email [email protected] You may also wish to visit the Bureau's home page, http://www.bom.gov.au. Units of measurement Except where noted, temperature is given in degrees Celsius (°C), rainfall in millimetres (mm), and wind speed in kilometres per hour (km/h). Observation times and periods Each station in Northern Territory makes its main observation for the day at 9 am local time.

  • Dhupuma College Yearbook 1973.Pdf
    YEAR BOOK 1973 Some of the walkers gathering at Gave Airport a little after dawn. DHUPUMA WALKATHON The Dhupuma Walkathon - 14 miles from Gove Airport to Wallaby Beach camp - was Dhupuma's first fund­ raising effort. Eighty-one walkers left the airport a little before 6.30 a.m. under very overcast conditions. The walkers were drenched by rain several times during their long hike, but this helped to keep all relatively cool and fresh. The aim was to cover as many sponsored miles as possible, rather than make a race of it. However, those keen to take line honours ran most of the way and the fourteen miles was covered in the time of 2 hours 18 minutes by Peter Darlison of Nhulunbuy Area School, closely followed by the first Dhupuma student, Rick Bayung, and several others. The slowest walkers took 4 hours and 20 minutes to cover the course, but these were three seven-year-olds, who did well to complete the walk. Only five walkers retired before the finish, and each of these covered more than eight miles. The main fund-raiser was Mr. Des O'Dowd, Gove Li cns Club representative @ $10 per mile plus several other sponsors. The leading fund-raiser from the Dhupuma students was Linda Galaway. The walkathon raised approximately $700 for the Dhupuma Social and Sporting Club Inc. and will be used to purchase recreation materials for the students' recreation rooms and dormitories. The only real damper on the day was the washout of the barbecue at Drimmie Head for walkers and their friends after the event.
