Jemimah is standing up for the first time in her life

Medical help for Jemimah

Jemimah's family needed help to arrange for an operation to correct her club feet. With the aid of Dr Gee and surgeons at the Alotau Hospital, Papua New Guinea,  the Rotary Club of Rowville - Lysterfield was able to finance transportation and support for Jemimah to get the treatment she needs.

This is one of the many life changing things that Rotary does around the world every day!

LYSTERFIELD PRIMARY SCHOOL (LPS) – ‘The FOUR PROJECTS’

Following a meeting of interested Club members last night, I am pleased to report progress on the following FOUR PROJECTS we are jointly undertaking with LPS.

1. Kitchen Garden Restoration Project. A small team of volunteers headed by Darren St Ledger and Marg Vesey will make a time to meet with Principal Kendra Parker to ‘walk the ground,’ and to discuss possibilities with a view to preparing an Action Plan for future developments.

2. In Class Support – ‘Reading Rotarians Volunteers’ A number of members are interested in this project and new club member, Jenny Moran has agreed to act as the liaison person with the designated LPS staff member and arrange rosters. Before commencing, however we shall need to explore the school protocols for volunteers and whether we need to undertake any training or orientation programs for in-class volunteers.

3. Earlyact Club I am meeting with staff member Danielle Sandeman on Thursday morning to begin the process of establishing an Earlyact club in years 5 and 6 and all being well should be able to launch the club in early Term 2.

4. Federal Election Day BBQ Our club is certainly interested in staging this event, but have some questions about logistics, which will be initially dealt with when the Kitchen Garden team meet with the Principal.

Farmer’s Drought Relief Appeal

This project is a partnership between Rotary International, Channel Nine and the National Farmer’s Federation and after only six days has already raised some $2.1 million. All donations to this fund are exempt from the normal RAWCS service fee and it should be note that our District has already donated $2500. DG Russell is working with his fellow DG’s to co-ordinate a ‘District to District and Club to Club’ effort so that all clubs will have the chance to ‘buddy-up’ with a Rotary club in the worst affected areas to ensure that our relief efforts and assistance can be directly targeted to those in most need. Stay tuned for some big developments!
