2011 Queensland Floods

The Queensland Floods have affected over 80 per cent of the state, and devastated many lives. Few families, communities or businesses have been left untouched by this massive disaster, the scale of which is rarely seen.

Like many other local Queensland businesses, Paradigm Infinitum's day to day running has been disrupted. Besides power outages, food shortages, and the inaundation of many local roads, our staff have also been involved in the relief effort, helping to clean up friends' homes, organise donations for those who have lost everything, and checking on friends who have been affected.

For those in the most affected suburbs of Brisbane, the disruption is likely to persist for an extended period of time. While every effort will be made to resume normal business as soon as possible, Paradigm Infinitum would like to ask its students, clients and associates for their patience and understanding during this difficult period for all Queenslanders.

Flooding blocked suburban streets in The Centenary suburbs.		Major arterial roads like Ipswich Road were also blocked for days.
Businesses in Sumner Park had to discard tonnes of merchandise.		The army was called in to assist in the most affected suburbs.
Many locals helped out. Here, Shona Leppanen-Gibson dumps rubbish during the demolition of a flooded house.		Kiong Chan cleaning up mud encrusted golf clubs and golf bags that were submerged during the floods.
