President Esther Roadnight OAM
After a few very nice and welcome cooler days we're now back to some hot weather again. I guess we should be making the most of it as soon we will be layering up to keep warm!
Last Tuesday members of the club who were available joined me for morning tea with the Prime Minister whilst he was in Kalgoorlie (along with about 200 others). I was very pleased to be able to extend the invitation to members of the club, I do hope you enjoyed the experience.
Monday night we have Wayne Moroney joining us to talk snakes. I will say I am looking forward to the talk, but secretly hoping Wayne does not bring any live specimens. I gave a very real fear of snakes ( and spiders and any creepy crawly).
On the 23 March we will be visiting Headspace to have a look at their facility and hear of the program's they are providing for the young people in our community. Boulder and Hannans members have been invited to join us.
Please let Ross know if you will be attending so that we can order enough pizzas for dinner.
Our next Rotary Information evening is on Monday 30 March. Please advise Cherie the name and email address of those who you would like sent an invitation within the next few days.
The Rotary Club of Hannans have invited members and their partners to join then at Beaten Track Brewery on 16 April. Put the date in your diary so we can enjoy an evening of fellowship with our fellow Rotarians.
Planning is starting for our Annual Fundraiser The a Battle of the Brains Quiz Night scheduled for Friday 5 June. Within the next few weeks letters will be being prepared for members to take to businesses who have supported us for past Quiz Nights. The full list will be circulated so if you know of other potential supporters please let Gloria or I know so letters can be prepared.
Enjoy the rest of your week as you Light up Rotary.
From President Esther ...

District Events to Attend
THE ROTARY FOUNDATION AREA OF FOCUS : BASIC EDUCATION AND LITERACY Rotary supports activities and training to improve education for all children and literacy for children and adults.
Area of Focus Statement of Purpose and Goals
TRF enables Rotarians to ensure that all people have sustainable access to basic education and literacy by:
1. Involving the community to support programs that strengthen the capacity of communities to provide basic education and literacy to all;
2. Increasing adult literacy in communities;
3. Working to reduce gender disparity in education;
4. Supporting studies for career-minded professionals related to basic education and literacy.
Parameters for Eligibility
TRF considers activities targeting the following to be within the scope of the basic education and literacy area of focus:
1. Access to quality basic primary and secondary education;
2. Educating adults in literacy;
3. Providing training in teaching literacy, curriculum development and school administration;
4. Strengthening educational experience through improved materials and facilities;
5. Community management of education systems;
6. Vocational training teams supporting the above activities;
7. School desk purchases, when accompanied by a detailed and verifiable plan to improve basic education and literacy;
8. Scholarships for graduate-level study in programs related to basic education and literacy.
TRF considers activities targeting the following to be outside the scope of the basic education and literacy area of focus and as such are not eligible for global grant funding:
1. Projects that consist exclusively of equipment purchases;
2. Projects that provide tuition or school supplies without the means for the community to provide these in the future.
Elements of Successful Humanitarian Projects and Vocational Training Teams
Global grants are:
1. Sustainable – communities are able to address their basic education and literacy needs after the Rotary club/district has completed its work;
2. Measurable – sponsors can select standard measures for their area of focus from the Monitoring and Evaluation Toolkit or use their own measures to show the good results of their work;
3. Community driven – designed by the host community based upon the needs they have identified; 4. Aligned with an area of focus – as defined in the policy documents.
Elements of Successful Scholarships
Global grants support graduate-level scholarships for career-minded professionals. TRF considers the following when evaluating global grant scholarship applications:
1. The applicant’s previous work experience in the field of basic education and literacy;
2. Academic program alignment with basic education and literacy. Examples of academic programs include education, literacy, curriculum development, special education, and school administration;
3. The applicant’s future career plans as they relate to basic education and literacy.

Four-Way Test of the things we think, say or do
Is it the TRUTH?
Is it FAIR to all concerned?
Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER
FRIENDSHIPS?
Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?
Quote of the Week “Primarily Rotary seeks to apply the theory
of service to business and community life.
This is expressed in the first part of our code
of ethics: To consider my vocation worthy and
as affording me a distinct opportunity to
serve society. He Profits Most Who Serves
Best is a less ideal expression, but the
suggestion of egoism is removed by the
added words, Service Above Self .”
