Last Gardening Session for 2021

Final Garden for 2021 with students

After a stop/start year with limited school involvement due to lockdowns, it was a pleasure to work with Ruyton students tackling a challenging garden in Deepdene last Friday.

This was the final student session for 2021. With guidance from Ann K, Tak, Friend-of-Rotary Ian and Geoff H two hours of weeding gave the disabled resident something to smile about. These before and after shots tell the story.

Shekhar Mehta, the Rotary International President 2021 - 2022 has selected his theme as "Serve to Change Lives".

Rotarians live by the Four Way Test:

Is it the Truth?

Is it Fair to all concerned?

Will it build Goodwill and better Friendships?

Will it be Beneficial to all concerned?

Rotary is dedicated to causes that build international relationships, improve lives and create a better word to support our peace efforts and end polio forever.
