Youth Programme

.


As Rotarians we believe that young people should have the platforms and opportunities for them to unlock their potential, develop their skills and broaden their horizons. Therefore, each year we run a wide range of Rotary Youth competitions for schools in the area. Great fun is had by all who are involved!

  • In the Youth Technology competition teams of pupils solve an interactive technology-based task and design, develop and build a solution with the materials supplied.
  • Budding chefs plan and cook a three course meal in the Young Chef competition judged by local chefs
  • The Young Musician competition gives individual musicians the opportunity to compete and participate in a winners’ concert.
  • Youth Speaks is a competition where young people use their public speaking skills to perform, persuade and entertain the audience
  • The Interschools Quiz in the format of “University Challenge” gives teams of different ages from local schools the opportunity to test their general knowledge.

Because Rotary is a national organisation there are opportunities for the local winners to represent the Club at the District Finals and, if successful, to proceed to the Regional and National Finals.
