September 2022

The committee members are well under way with the presentation of the Dictionaries for Life: 23/9 Gunthorpe C of E; 27/9 Robert Miles, 29/9 St.Peters C of E. We also take the opportunity to make the children more aware of what Rotary is and does, whilst also promoting again our annual Art and photographic competition, who's theme this year is " our Animal Kingdom". Investigations are also proceeding on how we might support activities at Belvoir Academy at Bottesford, so watch this space!

June 2022 - On 23rd June, Jane and Gerry accompanied the Rota kids from St Peter’s School, East Bridgford to the Veolia Recycling facility in Mansfield. The visit included an informative session in the education unit followed by a look round the working site where we could view the activities and machinery in action.They saw how the centre operates and how this connects to the day to day recycling at home and globally.

The Head Teacher, Richard Tomlinson gave the children 3 words to take on board before the visit:- Shock, (what surprised them) Inform, (How we can give information to others) Persuade. (How we can influence other people to recycle effectively).  This was to be discussed on their return to school.A highly enjoyable morning with enthusiastic, interested, and extremely well-behaved Rota kids. It was  a pleasure and a privilege to join them.               

July 2022 - We now have the Dictionaries for Life, stored and ready for distribution once the new school term starts in September.
