PP Mark had an entry in the DG Newsletter:
|
|
|
It is with a very heavy heart that I inform you of the passing of Professor Mary Louise McLaws today. You may well of heard this news on the news programs. I am hoping you could see fit to write something in your DG Newsletter. Professor McLaws was presented with a “Vocational Excellence” award (nominated by Mosman Rotary) from PDG Mina at Cowra last year. The professor made the trip via a chauffeured car arranged by Mosman Rotary, with her daughter & son-in-law accompanying her. She was quite unwell at that time but made the effort to come & receive her award for which we were most grateful & honoured. We, Mosman Rotary, had a long standing relationship with the Professor & her husband, Richard Flook.
Australia has lost a most distinguished & wonderful human being with the Professors passing.
Mark Wallis
Assistant Governor
Mary-Louise was a recipient of the District Vocational Excellence Award at Cowra and really struggled to attend. So very sad to hear. Mina Howard PDG

After being approached by Mosman Council the club has decided to make a contribution to the festival both as sponsor and participant. The full program for the Festival will be available shortly. The opening day is expected to attract over 3000 visitors. During the opening day we will have the opportunity to run a sausage sizzle with all proceeds going to our Project Fund.
|
President James will present more details in due course.

We have received the following update from the project steering group
|
Governance across the zone will be overseen by a Regional Council elected by clubs. The Regional Council will be led by a Chair who will be supported by a Chair-Elect, with each serving two-year terms.
|
As Rotarians and Rotaractors of Rotary Districts participating in the Regionalisation Pilot, you will soon be able to apply for the Regional Council positions of Chair, Chair-Elect and Portfolio Leads. Only Rotaractors can apply to be the Rotaract Nominee. The role descriptions for these positions are now available on the Creating Tomorrow website.
|
You will receive further emails in the coming weeks about the election process and how to apply for Regional Council roles.
|
Once all nominations are received, we will be coming back to Club Presidents who will vote on behalf of their club to elect Regional Council positions, with the election expected to take place in October this year. This will be a critical opportunity for clubs to choose who will lead our region.
|
From 1 July 2024 the proposed regional model includes a new way of grouping clubs, with each group of clubs referred to as a ‘Rotary Community Group’. By working together, clubs can support each other to increase their impact, amplify Rotary’s public image, and strengthen member engagement.
|
Club Presidents and Secretaries will soon receive information to start club conversations about how you would like to be grouped with other clubs.
|
Once clubs select their Community Groups, we will then be ready to start the process of nominations and elections for Rotary Community Leaders (RCLs) to mentor and support them. If you have questions about this or want to find out more, then why not join us later

HARDING MILLER EDUCATION FOUNDATION - Year 12 Mid-Year Scholar Updates
|
OLIVIA QUINCE - Coomealia High School NSW
|
This year Olivia is the School Vice Captain at Coomealla High School.
|
Olivia’s Coach Reflection - Olivia Quince has consistently achieved sound results in her assessments and exams, utilising the resources supplied through the scholarship. Olivia's goal is to undertake university study, archaeology is her passion so ancient history is a strong subject for her final exams. Olivia communicates easily and clearly and has participated enthusiastically to ensure she will achieve her academic goals.
|
TABITHA WADE – St Ives High School NSW
|
Tabitha’s Coach Reflection - Tabitha is a hard-working student who has fully utilised all the resources of the scholarship. Tabitha has found the tutoring and her laptop to have been vital in achieving outstanding results in several subjects in Year 11. Tabitha’s goal has not changed, and she hopes to study a Bachelor of Psychology. Her motivation and hard work will most certainly enable her to realise that goal.
|
Both students and their parents wish to thank The Rotary Club of Mosman for making their HMEF Scholarships possible. We wish both Olivia and Tabitha the very best for their Higher School Certificates as they complete Year 12 later this year.
