Recent Update of Events

As the Rotary year comes near it's end, and another is about to start, we review our activities and prepare to go forward into another year of Rotary. Here are some of the events we nahe been progressing:

RYLA (Rotary Youth Leadership Awards)

This past year we were delighted to have two participants head off to the RYLA Girls’ camp at Abernethy Outdoor Centre. RYLA promotes team work and leadership skills, whilst having fun and fostering friendships. We look forward to hearing them talk about their time away and how it has effected them.

RotaKids

The success of RotaKids in Dounby Community School has been one of the highlights foe our Club.

Following a successful Smartie Tube challenge they planned a School Fun Day at the end of term to raise funds for the Archie Foundation and NSPCC.

Earlier in the year they made up wonderful Harvest Hampers and gifted them to the elderly in the community.

Would your school be interested in RotaKids? Contact us to discuss.

Rotary delivers patient toiletries to the Hospital

These toiletries are used for patients who come into the Hospital in an emergency where they have no toiletries with them due to the urgency of their case, and they are not provided by the Hospital. This provides some home comforts whilst they are in great need.

International activity

Pupils and staff at Sanday school have long supported Minga School, Malawi. Pupils pay for their education in Malawi and many, therefore, leave school early. Rotary have been supporters of this fund raising effort. This year we are grateful to the Papay Community which has raised £350 towards one term of Secondary Schooling for 10 boys and 10 girls.
