RotaKids is an exciting way for those 12 and under to lead and engage in important, lively activities that will make a positive difference in their school, in their local community and globally. At the same time RotaKids enjoy developing the ability and confidence to take up their place in society as responsible, successful, effective citizens both now and in the future. They have fun developing team work skills and making good friends.
As citizenship
is part of the school curriculum this is an opportunity for Rotary to support
and expand the work already happening in school. The decisions made always
involve the RotaKids.

ROTARY CHILDREN'S FUN DAY
Rotary Clubs through the United Kindgdom come together arrange the biggest single outing for disadvanted children in the country.
In 2024 27,759 children benefitted, supported by 2,325 Rotarians at 173 venues.
Most such events are held on the second Wednesday in June but so Clubs decide to hold an event at a different time of the year that works better for children from their community.
A briefing for Clubs about opportunities this Christmas and in 2025 will be held at 7.30pm on 24 September. Please contact Andy Jarrett via youth@rotary1100.org to find out more.
