Newman Rode the Waves

Hamilton Rd & Newman Rd, Wavell Heights QLD
Meet Newman the octopus – a local legend with a road named in his honour! After escaping from Chermside Pool via the stormwater drains during the last downpour, he’s been spotted riding the waves through the Heights. He’s now found the perfect spot to pop up and say a cheerful ‘hello’ to his little friends at the kindy just across the road.
