Our YOUTH programs.
The Club has an active program in both district-sponsored and locally initiated youth and youth affairs.
It participates in Rotary District 9800 sponsored programs such as the following;
The Club is also prepared each year to initiate local programs and opportunities such as:
New Ideas
The Club is open to any suggestions or recommendations to consider any program or initiative which may, in a positive way, add to existing programs of enrichment for young people living within our community. The development of an idea may ultimately lead to its adoption in many communities both here in Australia and overseas.
Remember that all existing programs, many of them now held world wide, started from one simple suggestion. Our Club undertakes its commitment to youth activities in the knowledge that the youth of today are the next generation of leaders ( and do we need them!)
For further information on any of these programs or to offer a new idea please email the club Secretary.
Ambassadorial Scholarships
Each year the Rotary District invites nominations from students who have completed an undergraduate degree and who may be seeking post graduate studies on a particular subject at an overseas university(as an example) Opportunities exist through Rotary to assist these people. In turn, overseas students have been awarded ambassadorial scholarships to study in Australia. A number of speaking engagements can be expected during this appointment, but overall it is an opportunity offered by Rotary for students to further their specific studies.
Rotary Summer Science School
Each year the Club has an opportunity to partially sponsor a student to the Summer Science School held at Canberra National University over the summer holidays.
The student spends approximately two weeks in the company of other like-minded students being exposed to science activities on University campus and offsite.
On return, the student usually attends a Club dinner meeting to speak on their impressions etc. Nominations are usually canvassed through the year 11/12 coordinators and if a number of nominations, an interview process is required.
