When heavy rain flooded a street in Banksia Bay, neighbours worked together. The local council arranged for a drain to be cleared and shared updates with residents. A community centre opened its hall for people who needed a dry place to wait. Firefighters helped keep the flooded road safe. At the library, families used computers to find council updates and borrowed books while they waited. The next week, residents met at the community centre to suggest ways to make the street safer.
