Bloomfield River State School is not far from Ayton. It's also not far from the community. It's a little school with 87 kids. There are five classes and the school is lucky to have an activity room, computer room and library. At our school we have literacy lessons every morning. If you come to school every day you will get a gold pass but if you have below 85% attendance you haven't got a gold pass. Gernita and Felicity |
| Davis' Hill | Bloomfield River Causeway | Wujal Wujal Community |
 |
The Bloomfield Causeway is there so you can go to Cairns which is on the south side of the river. On the North side is Wujal. It is good fishing there. You can take photos. Also the Bloomfield Falls is next to the causeway. It's in Wujal. Lots of people go there. Lots of people cross the causeway. When it is high tide you have to wait until 3 blocks are showing or your car will get salt water all over it. Don't go swimming at the causeway because there are crocodiles. You can go spearing for fish there too. Roderick & Shariel |

| Bloomfield River Mouth | Main Wharf | The Bloomfield Lodge |
 |
The main wharf is near Ayton. It is not far from the river mouth. You can go fishing and you can put your boat in from there. You can go for a walk and you can watch the big ships go past. You can see the mountains around the river and the Bloomfield River mouth. I think it's a good place to look out for crocodiles and the fishing is good there too. Gernita |
 |
The river mouth is where the Bloomfield river runs down to Weary Bay Beach. It is down from the beach road. From the river mouth you can see the main wharf and you can see the lodge. It's a good place to go fishing or camping. Ephraim |

The Lodge is near the south end of Weary Bay. The Lodge is a good place for accommodation. You get to the Lodge by boat. The boat comes and picks you up then takes you out to sea and around the sand flat and through the buoys and you're at the Lodge. At the Lodge you can stay the night and relax. You can go on river cruises and bush walks. At the Lodge you can go sightseeing and you get a very clear view of the ocean. Ruby and Talara |
