Rotary Junior Community Awards

The Rotary Club has sponsored the Rotary Junior Commuity Award program for the past seven years and engages Grade 6 students in four main areas of endeavour, to be completed over the school year – Community Service, Physical Recreation, Social Experience and Skill Development. The students, with the aid of parents and teachers, design a non-competitive program they feel they can achieve and keep a diary of their progress.

Rotary Junior Community Award students at both Elizabeth St and Albert St Primary Schools gave ZOOM presentations to the Rotary Club of Moe. Traditionally the schools would give these at the “Rostrum” at a regular club meeting, but in these Covid safe times the kids stepped up to mike and zoomed. Glowing reports came in of activities in wood working, cooking, gardening and Brekky Club. Chair of Vocational and Youth, Robin Noakes, noted that despite the adversity the kids had really put a lot of effort in. He was pleased to see that the long tradition of Elizabeth St and Albert St students participating in the Award program had been upheld and all the Rotarians who joined in the Zoom presentation were very impressed. The students, staff and parents should be proud of their achievements.

Views On Rotary Membership

Rotary ... where people help people and achieve extraordinary things.

For over one hundred and fourteen years, motivated people around the world have come together as Rotarian's to unite the power of one with the power of many to bring about exceptional change in the world. Made up of men and women across all vocations and cultures, Rotary is a non-political, non-religious global organisation focused on improving the well being of local and international communities and bringing about world peace and understanding.

To be a Rotarian is simply to have a desire to do something to help others.

To be a Rotarian is to develop your skills, broaden your networks, grow your understanding and knowledge, enjoy the camaraderie of like-minded people and build life-long friendships. With 27,703 Rotarians in 1082 clubs in Australia and 1,22,117 Rotarians in 36,005 clubs overall around the world, that's a powerful lot of people making a difference.

The Four Way Test

Rotary Junior Community Awards 2020

Arrangements for our 2020 Rotary Junior Community Award program commenced earlier in the year with four schools advising that they had students who were keen to participate. Members of the Vocational Service committee presented the RJCA program to Albert Street PS, Newborough East PS, Elizabeth St PS and Newborough PS. Approximately 10 to 14 students from each school have volunteered to participate in the program for 2020.

However, due to the current COVID-19 Pandemic and the restrictions surrounding contact in the community, we are unsure how this program will progress for the next two terms of school.

Our club has contacted the schools to offer encouragement for the students to continue working through those activities that can be achieved at home and our Club will continue to assist students and teachers throughout the coming months.
