Club Stories
Pakistan has conducted its first anti-polio vaccination campaign for this year with more than 44.3 million children receiving vaccinations.
This was aimed at children under the age of five and involved more than 400,000 trained health care workers in a huge door-to-door operation across both Pakistan and Afghanistan.
Further campaigns are planned to ensure all children are reached in both high-risk districts and mobile populations to fulfill the government’s commitment to eradicating polio in the country.

My time in Brisbane began after I got off a plane that had been over two hours delayed. For once, this wasn’t even the airline’s fault; there apparently had been some unpredictable weather conditions and they straight up didn’t have a plane available for a little while. The plan had been for Jane Andersen, Rotarian from RC Brisbane High-Rise, to show me around a little before she took me to her place, but unfortunately it was late enough in the evening when I got there that we just went straight to hers.

 

Lachlan Janetzki was our club's candidate to attend the Rotary Youth Leadership Award at Camp Getaway this year.
Lachlan is a graduate of Mount Alexander College, a former school captain, and a recipient of our club civics and citizenship award at Ascot Vale West PS in 2018. 
What a joyful evening we had as we welcomed our District Governor Peter Shepheard and his father Neil to our end of year celebrations.
 
With 47 attendees including our Cluster Coordinator David Dippie, Peter and Sue Duras from Rotary Central Melbourne, Yvonne Farquharson {former member} from Rotary Newcastle, 3 of our youth program recipients and 3 new members, the night was filled with fun, celebration and conversations.
