Information About Paluma
Paluma is a township of around 25 permanent residents in the Mount Spec ranges of Thuringowa's heritage-listed Wet Tropics. Paluma developed from a mining and forestry background. The first people to arrive here were tin prospectors in the 1870's after an abundance of tin in the mountains. The area remained isolated until a road was built up the range in the 1930's This industry lasted for years until landowners worked together to shut it down. The tin industry was using the creeks for washing the tin but the creeks provided the township’s water supply. The Paluma Environmental Education Centre was established in 1977 by the Queensland Department of Education on what used to be the site of the Paluma State School, visiting groups are mostly year 6 or 7 primary, but the school does cater for students from years 1 to 12. The school provides an opportunity to embrace the natural environment with one of the classrooms built underneath the canopy of the forest. The Paluma Bridge is a stone bridge in the Mt Spec ranges and was built in 1932, (the first of its kind in Queensland). Crystal clear water flows down the creek filling the deep pools of Little Crystal Creek, making it the best swimming hole in Thuringowa. Mt Spec National Park and the Township of Paluma are popular retreats for tourists and visitors
Paluma Dam is the second major water supply for Thuringowa and is situated on Swamp Creek at the top of Mount Spec. The dam is part of a unique water supply system that gravity feeds up to 50 megalitres of water per day to the cities of Thuringowa and Townsville. For most of the year water flowing from the Mount Spec National Park is collected and filtered at the Crystal Creek intake and then piped under gravity to the twin cities. When Crystal Creek water levels are low, water is released into the creek from Lake Paluma via another gravity pipeline.
Lake Paluma has a capacity of 11,800 megalitres. The Lake is open for a range of nature based recreational activities such as canoeing, sailing and swimming. Lake Paluma is surrounded by World Heritage Rainforest and is only accessible via a 12km gravel road just past the township of Paluma. Visitor facilities include picnic shelters and BBQs. Bookings are essential - visit |NQ Water. This area is home to Platypus, Peregrine Falcon, Eastern Water Dragon and a range of rainforest fauna.

Computer Repairs & Support for Paluma – Amazing Customer Testimonials
I was very impressed with the prompt service I received from COLETEK IT. I submitted a request for assistance on Thursday when my Windows PC failed to boot. I dropped the computer off Friday. Saturday - I was notified that analysis was complete and that a reinstall of Windows was required. Sunday - I was notified that Windows had been reinstalled and all my data had been copied back. Monday - I picked up my recovered machine from COLETEK. Four days from initial contact to having my system back would be great service in anyone's book. I have no hesitation in recommending COLETEK IT.
We experienced some issues with our Linux server. I contacted Luke and explained my concerns, Luke come to our office (after hours) to run some tests and when advised me that some programming was required and that the hard drives were overdue for replacements. Luke suggested I drop the server of at his office on Friday late afternoon so he could do the fix on the weekend and he would come to our office on Sunday afternoon to install the updated server. I gladly accpeted such a great offer. Everything went exactly to plan even though we had to deal with really bad storms and some power outages on that weekend. Job well done.
I have outsourced many projects through COLETEK over the years for a variety of applications. Applications such as a online based software platform that pulls live data feeds and updates in real-time to the user. A custom built website for adding users and products that achieved over 20,000 listings. Mobile applications. Data recovery and hardware repair. Custom SEO services and secure hosting services. I choose COLETEK because I know that a job will get done as requested and within a reasonable time frame. Also I'm a stickler for security and they're the best.
Luke from COLETEK provided server setup and consultation for our media production Business. They were prompt, professional, and helpful, and gave us some good ideas and options when it came to a custom and cost effective solution. They have been prompt and responsive since initial setup, offering advice as needed and supporting additional requests. Highly recommended!
We recently engaged the services of COLETEK to perform some penetration testing on our systems. We found Luke flexible and accommodating with our specific needs. Luke provide what we needed to show our clients our security measures with our systems. I would have no hesitation in recommending Luke.
