Youth Service Report
On Monday 24 February, two National Youth Science Forum participants, Millie Ives and
Maya Teerink from Kawana Waters State College reported on their experiences at the Forum
in Brisbane in January. It was obvious that the experience had broadened their knowledge,
enhanced their network, provided an opportunity to form friendships and affirmed their
career options on completion of Year 12 as well as the opportunity to gain information on
courses available through the various universities. It was wonderful to hear that the
experience had exceeded their expectations.
Maddi Lang has been in Brazil for a month and reported she is loving every second. She is
living in Bauru, a town of approximately 380,000. She has currently attended two Rotary
meetings where she introduced herself in Portuguese and has met with other Exchange
students from Australia and other countries. She loves the food except for pig stomach.
RYDA commences this week, and Equine Therapy has already commenced. Interact and
EarlyAct groups are already busy planning their projects for the year with new Board and
members in place. Planning for "Telling Stories" is underway.
