Rotary Young Artist

Young Artist aims to encourage young people to use contemporary or traditional methods of art to express their creative talents

Rotary Young Chef

Cooking amongst young people is a valuable life skill. Sponsored by Filippo Berio, contestants prepare and present a three-course meal within a pre-set budget and time limit, which is judged by an expert panel.

Rotary Youth Environmentalist

The environment remains one of Rotary’s seven Areas of Focus, and we are committed to working with our communities to protect the areas we call home.

Rotary Young Musician

Music is an international language and we encourage talented young people by providing this opportunity to demonstrate their musical skills.

Rotary Young Photographer

Photography is a talent and an ever-popular art form.  Entrants submit three photographs on a theme in black and white or colour, along with a description of the inspiration for their photographs.

Rotary Young Writer 

A flair for creative writing is a special gift and this competition promotes and encourages the work of young people who show talent. The winning writers are subsequently published in Rotary magazines.

Rotary Primary Schools Quiz

Many of our Rotary Clubs hold a heat of the Primary Schools Quiz where local schools participate in a competition for pupils in P7. The winners of the local competition then go on to compete with the winners from other Rotary Clubs in a wider area.

Technology Tournaments

Technology Tournaments are one-day events for multiple teams of 4 students to engage with Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM) by collectively solving a previously unseen technology task.

Rotary also offers junior Technology Tournaments for younger pupils in partnership with the Rochester Bridge Trust.

Rotary Youth Speaks

We encourage speaking and presentation skills in young people and this competition showcases superb quality speakers.
