Guest Speaker

Tom Prickett – our “NYSF-er” for 2023.

Tom is a student at St Columba Anglican School (SCAS)

The NYSF, National Youth Science Forum, nurtures Australian science and technology talent by immersing students in what a career in Science, technology, engineering, maths, STEM, looks like in real life. Hearing about non-typical jobs and connecting with other like-minded young people has life-long impact.

Tom's presentation was very interesting and extremely inspiring. His passion was evident, and it is clear his horizons were broadened by attending the NYSF.

With future leaders like Tom we can be confident our fate is in good hands.

Anniversary Recognition

It was a warm welcome back to our touring professionals Geoff Moore and Vicki Finch who received belated anniversary service recognition

And also congratulations to John Drinan and Elizabeth Fielding who have a much longer service commitment to Rotary than these numbers would indicate.

Member Induction

We welcomed into our club Julie Drake who is pictured with President Neil Black and her mentor Grant Heaton. Julie is head of administration at St Columba School.
