Save Bahrs Scrub Alliance

Bahrs Scrub contains several endangered plant species which are unique to this patch of South East Queensland.
Koalas and other fauna live within the Bahrs Scrub precinct.
This area is now within the Logan City Council boundary - formerly it was part of Gold Coast Council.
LACA, Gecko, Wildlife Logan and others are concerned that the unique biodiversity values of this landscape are threatened by government haste to populate South East Queensland. Members of these groups have joined to campaign together to achieve best possible environmental outcomes for the ultimate benefit of residents of South East Queensland.
A separate website http://www.bahrsscrub.org.au/ is under construction to provide wider opportunity for community participation. Please visit the site.
If you have any historical photos or information you would like to contribute, we'd be delighted to add the information to our website. Council's history of the suburb is very scanty.
Windaroo Valley high School was named after a housing estate development in 1993. Read more here.
If you are concerned about any aspect of conservation in our local area please consider joining the Logan and Albert Conservation Association. Details for joining are available here.
Information about Logan's Planning Study is available on council website here.
