What we completed in 2018 - 2019
Committee - Sangeeta Bajaj (Chair), PP PHF Don Borg, PP PHF Chris Adams, Lyn Beckwith, John Koenders
At the start of the Rotary year, the team developed a planning timeline which we were able to adhere to. As a result, we have accomplished two main vocational items which are detailed below.
I would like to take this opportunity of saying a very big thank you to the whole team for their excellent work and support over the course of the year. We would also like to extend our gratitude to Ken Miller, Ian Wakefield, Aneesh Bajaj and Ian Ash for getting us over the line!
McLeod-Murphy Award
This year I am pleased to say that we were able to provide two awards to Erin Jones and Caileigh Thornton. As we heard from Erin and Caileigh on 5thJune 2018, $1,000.00 was presented to each of them. Caileigh attended our Rotary meeting on 18thJune to give us an update on her studies and we presented her with final payment. Erin will receive the EFT payment as she was not be able to attend on this date. Both are well into their studies and really appreciate the support Rotary has given them.
Pride in Workmanship Awards
This event was a real highlight for the team, Rotary and all attendees. The Awards night went ahead as planned on 19th March 2019 at the Paradise Hotel with a total of 15 recipients. John did a sterling job of setting the scene as the MC for the night. We had 114 attendees which was a fantastic turnout and the event was well planned and supported by the whole Vocational Service team and other members. A great experience for everyone involved!
