President's Report
Hi All,
 
Well, what another great week it’s been to be part of Rotary!
Last Wednesday along with fellow Rotarians; Gavan, Paul, Peter, Martha, Bailey, Garry, I attended the Grand Final Primary Schools Speech Contest at Doncaster Secondary College.

14 of the brightest students from our district displayed courage, confidence, leadership and outstanding public speaking skills across the board.
 
A very inspiring night.

It was a very close call on the podium, but they were all winners to be there.

On Sunday (the 8th ) Paul & Trish, Peter & Mandy & Martha attended the
Templestowe and Yarra Valley Auxiliary High Tea where a cheque for $150,000 was presented to the RCH (Royal Children’s Hospital).
 
A massive thank you has gone out to all Rotarians who have been part of the donation supporting alternative therapies at the RCH.

This week on Wednesday at 11am, we are hosting the Remembrance Day Service at the Wandin Yallock Cenotaph. Everyone is welcome.
 
I have no doubt it will be another moving experience as we look back and pay tribute to those who have fought to protect our country and freedom.

Lastly this Wednesday night we will be having our monthly board meeting at the Bendigo Bank Board Room from 7:30 onwards. Looking forward to seeing those there who can make it.

Have a great week, stay safe.
 
Yours in Rotary,

Tim
