"I've never seen anything like it. I don't ever want to see anything like it again"- Pam McArdle

Telegraph Point School has been significantly damaged and families have lost their homes and belongings.

Residents further inland at Rollands Plains are isolated and without supplies or fuel. Many have lost stock, drowned in rivers, and months worth of feed.

The community is pitching in to hand milk cows while the power supply is down.

Pam says this is what community is all about.

She spoke with radio station Hit FM this morning before assessing the damage to the club.

"I've never seen anything like it. I don't ever want to see anything like it again," Pam said.

"Everybody is sticking by everybody. There's so much support - even people who have lost everything. People are jumping in and helping."

Pam said while they had prepared for the forecast weather, no-one was prepared for how quickly the river rose and inundated the community.

She said within one hour, water was rushing through the club, cars were floating away and residents were scrambling to higher ground at the old highway.

She said it could take up to three months to get back on their feet.

"We had our bushfires last year and I learned then what this community was about which is why I took over managing this club. It's all been a volunteer job. We've turned this club around and in matter of an hour we lost it," she told Hit FM.
