Editor's Notes
- Make a difference to their school, their community and the world How does this fit in with the other age groups in Rotary?
- You can see it is the starting point for future Rotarians with two more stages in Interact and Rotaract before Rotary for real.
- To the school : It gives a stronger purpose to the existing citizenship programme in the current curriculum To the pupils : It builds self esteem and confidence at a time where children’s psychological development means they are becoming aware of themselves as individuals and different from their peers They also learn project team and leadership skills. To the community: Raised community awareness of completed projects and increased community responsibility and ownership
- It takes time to establish the links There are benefits to teachers as it is supporting them to achieve their Citizenship targets. However it is unlikely to involve all the children. All this work has its foundation in the RotaKids promise
- A presentation was done to a number of Head Teachers who had expressed interest. They all like the idea but only one for a variety of different reasons said “Yes . We’ll go for it” Tarves School in the catchment area of our Rotary club. 16 members, 50% of P6 & 7 classes School KO Sept 2009. Time spent by Rotarians from Meldrum with the group establishing the meaning of the Promise Club “chartered” March 2010. They took their promise with their hands on a wooden Rotary wheel Sponsoring Rotary Club: Oldmeldrum
- The main thing here that needs explanation is the last point; School policies can include: disclosure, H&S, parental permission for any projects out with school time, taking of photos,
- The following are ones we have done . There could be many more different ones
- Tarves RotaKids wear purple Hiar to show they care. They colected at their end of term church service for Polio Plus. They also explained as part of the service what Rotary was trying to achieve across the world -- the elimination of Polio
- RotaKids run Easter bonnet parade and competition at Oldmeldrum Rotary Easter Egg Hunt. Wrote letters for prize sponsorship and thankyous, made posters, made bonnets and helped on the day
- The litter pick up is able to happen because of a DSG to purchase the equipment. The impact of receiving letters was discussed with RotaKids. A letter from a local business was then handed to one of the RotaKid who has ADHD amongst other problems. The letter was advising him they were donating some prize money for the easter Bonnets. He could not believe some one had actually written to him.
- Good afternoon, Youth Exchange is a programme organised globally by RI Operated by district where I as the District Officer assist you at the Clubs in finding matching young people to come here to experience our culture of Scotland. 09/05/10
- The emphasis is to ensure the person selected matches the goals shown above. 09/05/10
- So what is Youth Exchange? The programme assist you as Clubs in meeting your goals to community service and as you will see from RI’s slogan for this year assist in Building Communities both at home and abroad. 09/05/10
- The fundamental benefits of the programme are shown here: Visiting and experiencing another nation’s culture first hand and making friendships which have the potential of lasting a lifetime. It also has the potential of enabling you as Clubs to establish long term links with a Club in another country. 09/05/10
- This is a programme which encapsulate all what I believe Rotary is about – the development of acquaintance as an opportunity for service 09/05/10
- Whilst exchanges are on an individual basis a number of other district host international camp for many young people as shown in this slide. 09/05/10
- This programme best suits a young person who wishes to experience an academic year abroad and would be expected to attend classes in their host country. Equally should a club send a student on this programme, then they would be expected to host a similar return to us. The student’s family would be a key part of this exchange. 09/05/10
- This is like work experience and is short term rather than long term programme. Again the involvement of local clubs is essential 09/05/10
- These are the guidelines for selecting a suitable person for YE programmes 09/05/10
- Now to how it operates: 09/05/10
- Suggested club committee structure to ensure successful engagement in the programme. 09/05/10
- So consider being involved Help district in taking this programme forward Get out to the schools, universities youth organisation and help to identify and select students for this programme 09/05/10
- Like any Rotary programme there are many resources to ensure you can make the decisions My job is to assist you and the students in being involved. 09/05/10
- I look forward to working with you all and am happy to come and speak to your club on Youth Exchange. 09/05/10
