This week we had the annual primary school speech contest hosted by Woori Yallock Primary School.
Yet again this was a truly inspiring event.
Seven pupils from Woori Yallock, Don Valley, Wandin North and Yering Primary Schools presented with some very close results.
A significant amount of preparation has gone into the speeches and the winner was Dixie-Schaak Taylor for her second year in a row. Dixie will go onto the district contest.
There was a great turn out of parents and friends, as well as fellow Rotarians to cheer on the kids.
This week we will be having a fellowship night at a location to be confirmed in this weeks agenda.
With the September school holidays in full swing, be safe out there and have fun in the sun.
We are in urgent need of home hosting for the next ROMAC patient, 14 yr old Serah from Tanna Island, Vanuatu. She will be accompanied to Melbourne by her older sister, Reina. Home hosting is required from June 30th.
Serah will be treated for a knee problem at St Vincent’s. Private Hospital East Melbourne. The length of stay is currently unknown.
Her initial consult is on July 2nd at Nth. Melbourne and her operation on her knee will be done at St Vincent’s Private Hospital.
There is an allowance available to the home host, who must have a Working with Children card. This can be arranged through Rotary.
If you have the time, and would be open to enjoying the amazing experience of being part of changing a child’s life, please feel free to contact Gavan McIntyre on 0409 343 947.
