The event offered a fantastic opportunity not only to support the preservation of one of WA’s most iconic destinations, but also to connect with team members we don’t often cross paths with. With ferry transfers and lunch generously provided, it was an enjoyable and rewarding day for everyone involved. ![beach clean 1](https://blog.programmed.com.au/hs-fs/hubfs/PFM/PFM%20Internal%20Comms/Culture%20Community/beach%20clean%201.jpg?width=640&height=360&name=beach%20clean%201.jpg) A special thank-you goes to Julie McManus, who once again did a stellar job coordinating the event. From comprehensive trail maps to a dedicated charter bus service, every detail was thoughtfully planned. Julie checked in with all participants throughout the day to ensure everyone was safe, supported, and having a great time. We had a wonderful day contributing to the island’s upkeep, spending time with our families, and strengthening connections across the business, all while helping to keep Rottnest beautiful for the summer. ![beach clean 2](https://blog.programmed.com.au/hs-fs/hubfs/PFM/PFM%20Internal%20Comms/Culture%20Community/beach%20clean%202.jpg?width=640&height=360&name=beach%20clean%202.jpg)   ## More Recent Posts #### [![Safe Work Month - Safety Starts Here - A message from CEO Graeme Hurn](https://blog.programmed.com.au/hubfs/Internal%20Comms/CEO%20and%20ELT/safety%20month%20ceo%20blog%20(1).png) *Sep 29, 2026, 10:30:00 AM | Safety* Safe Work Month - Safety Starts Here - A message from CEO Graeme Hurn](https://blog.programmed.com.au/newshub/safe-work-month-safety-starts-here-a-message-from-ceo-graeme-hurn) #### [![Work and Smile Selfie Challenge - Different Jobs, One Programmed - September edition](https://blog.programmed.com.au/hubfs/Internal%20Comms/Work%20and%20Smile/Selfie%20Challenge/selfie%20challenge%20sept%2026.png) *Sep 24, 2026, 11:38:52 AM | Work and Smile* Work and Smile Selfie Challenge - Different Jobs, One Programmed - September edition](https://blog.programmed.com.au/newshub/work-and-smile-selfie-challenge-different-jobs-one-programmed-september-edition) #### [![Celebrating Programmed's Long Service Legends - September 2026](https://blog.programmed.com.au/hubfs/Internal%20Comms/Culture%20and%20Community/long%20service%20legends%20aug%20blog%20(1).png) *Sep 22, 2026, 3:47:38 PM | Culture & Community* Celebrating Programmed's Long Service Legends - September 2026](https://blog.programmed.com.au/newshub/celebrating-programmeds-long-service-legends-september-2026) [Return Home](https://blog.programmed.com.au/newshub) [![RGB-Endt-Horz-Rev-RGB150](https://blog.programmed.com.au/hs-fs/hubfs/PFM%20Internal%20Comms/RGB-Endt-Horz-Rev-RGB150.png?width=500&height=178&name=RGB-Endt-Horz-Rev-RGB150.png "RGB-Endt-Horz-Rev-RGB150")](https://programmed.com.au/)   Level 32 Tower 2, 727 Collins Street, Collins Square, Melbourne, Victoria 3008 [tel:](tel:)   - Programmed Australia - [About](https://programmed.com.au/about/our-company/) - [Our Services](https://programmed.com.au/services/) - [Our Locations](https://programmed.com.au/australia/) - [Latest News](https://programmed.com.au/news-insights/) - [Search Jobs](https://www.jobs.programmed.com.au/jobs/) © Programmed.
