Below are a brief summary of discussions that took part in 3 of the Committees;  Kevin Kevany - Youth Services, has moved easily under new management. And to mark the occasion, yet another Manaiakalani institution, Ruapotaka School in Point England, also under a new principal, Allison Hamilton, who grew up nearby, is linking into Have-a-Go sailing, something she is particularly excited to bring to her pupils; Discovery, ditto; and Dictionaries in Schools – for starters. Penny Leyland’s Toothbrushes in Schools – which has dramatically changed the dental health of youngsters in Otahuhu over 10-years -- is brushing up a froth at St Pius. Watch this space for the next school. RYPEN is over the last weekend in March with +50 youngsters from schools in our ‘parish’ attending a camp in the Hunuas. RYLA interviews will begin shortly. Don’t forget to send Tom/ Namrata details of any young people 20-28 you’ve come across, to be assessed for this prestigious award in mid-April.  Miles Cain - Community, had a meeting with good attendance. Three projects were discussed. 1/ Planting at the CAB garden in Glen Innes 2/ Plan to fund and build a school vegetable garden at Glen Innes School next Rotary year 3/ Looking at the feasibility of running a school art competition similar to one held in Taupo called “It is not OK to litter” Firstly we need to get the local authorities approval as we want the successful artwork to be displayed in the community. Below is one of the posters that appeared on the footpath pavings in Taupo.  This project has the potential of giving the club and Rotary great public exposure. .jpg) Brian Fergus - Club Services Committee Report;1.
