ROTAKIDS

On Mon 15th Oct Patricia Taylor from our neighbouring Rotary Club of Batley came to the club to speak about Rotakids . Patricia recently gave a talk at the District 1040 Conference on the subject.
RC of Batley started Rotakids in 2013 and now have two Rotakids clubs - Batley St Marys and

Lydgate in their local area, plus two Interact clubs. There are now 10 Rotakids clubs in District 1040.
2 in Sowerby Bridge,
2 in Hull, 2 in Batley and schools in Bradford.
Rotakids clubs are for 7 to 11 year olds.
Patricia gave the club details on how to set up a
Rotakids club.
Teaching them how to run the club electing their own President and secretary and their own charity, using English and mathematics to plan and vote for the chosen charity.
A Rotarian should give around half an hour a week to help the Rotakids meeting this period to fit the school timetable.
The Rotarian to be CRB checked.
Ask Rotary GB&I to Charter the club with possibly the DG being present. The Children have to learn the Rotakids pledge.
Possible charities are a Memory Chain, a link in the chain costs say 50p all monies raised goes to
School in a Bag.Charity This enables Children in Africa with the essentials to go to school or
Sals shoes Charity. In many countries you cannot go to school without a pair of shoes.
Helen gave thanks to Patricia for her talk and giving the club the knowledge to start our own
Rotakids Club in Birstall
