We had a great time last night at the Rotary Youth Leadership Awards
with our two sponsored young adults Jasmine and Jolene.
These 5-day leadership camps are inspirational!
If you, or you know of someone who would be interested in coming next year,
let us know as we are keen to support the future of young people.
Rotary Club of Karrinyup
A great night at the Perth International Airport last night
as we welcomed home Jasmin from her 12 months in Spain
as a Rotary Youth Exchange student.
We also saw off Alicia who is heading to Norway
for her exchange.
Alicia will arrive to -3 and snow, a slight difference
to the 40 degree heat wave that she has just left.
Both girls had family and friends in attendance
- and it was just terrific that their paths crossed
for just enough time for a photo together
We said farewell to Miella last night, our outbound Youth Exchange student
. Off to Spain for a year, enjoy and have a great year,
we look forward to hearing about all your amazing adventures.
