Thursday Island: A Retrospective
Thursday island is a small dot on the Australian map with important lessons for us all to learn.
Not only has it a rich history of hard working skilled workers, but is modernising to meet the challenges of motivating and training a new generation of locals for a new world of challenges and opportunities.
We take a look at TI, past present and future, with exclusive interviews with respected elders, new leaders and younger generations.
