APPRENTICE CONNECT PROJECT GETS UNDERWAY

 

One of the club's newest projects is called Apprentice Connect. We have partnered with the Wyndham Central College on their Pathways and Transitions Program. The program is aimed at helping young students who are intending to join the workforce rather than progressing on to tertiary education.

 

Three Rotarians were invited to the school to talk to the students about their own work and life experiences. They also spoke about how Rotary can help in many ways in life.

 

They offered to act as mentors if the students felt the need to seek advice about applying for jobs and preparing for an interview. The members enjoyed the experience and felt that they had made a small but positive impact. The school is keen to work with the club on future projects.
