Applications open for the 2020 Rotary Youth Leadership Award

Ian Munro from Rotary Club of Tawa Inc.

If you are, or have been, a leader at school, work or in your community, then you must apply for a 2020 Rotary Youth Leadership Award (RYLA) today! RYLA is a residential, high-energy programme to develop young leaders to be held at the Silverstream Retreat, Hutt Valley, 22 January to Sunday 26 January 2020.
Preston Lyons (pictured left) was the 2019 Tawa RYLA representative and had this to say: “The theme of RYLA 2019 was to ‘unleash your leadership potential’. RYLA certainly achieved that, and so much more. It was an intense, challenging, and incredibly rewarding journey of growth, teamwork, and leadership. I have innumerable highlights and memories, each of which empowered me to become a better version of myself.”
Application forms are available on the RYLA website – www.ryla9940.co.nz...
Tawa applicants can enquire further at tawarotaryclub@gmail.com and should submit their application forms to the same email address by 30 September 2019.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
