“Adding your experience of Rotary to our public work of art.” As part of Dion’s proposal, Rotary members and partners are encouraged to create a symbol or mark that expresses their thoughts about Rotary and that personal and unique touch will be added to the structure. To help you do that Dion Hitchens and Lisa Brickell of 2Be, [business educators specialising in storytelling and presentation skills] will workshop with us so we can develop the stories, signs and signifiers which say something about the significance of Rotary to us. Dion was a RYLA recipient and has a good understanding of the four way test and the values of Rotary. The workshop be held at Waipuna and will start at 4.00pm on Monday the 2nd of December. Members and partners are encouraged to join Dion and Lisa so you can add something personal to our 50th anniversary project, something that you can point out to friends and family in the years to come. It’s time to make your mark ! |

On 12 November we had the privilege to attend a presentation of 280 dictionaries to Students at Finlayson Park Primary School, in Manurewa, the largest decile 1 school in the country. We witnessed smiles all round and was made aware again of the great effort this Trust and the Pakuranga Club and its Auxiliary team are making to improve our literacy standards.
