Janey Ball awarded Paul Harris Fellowship Sapphire

Congratulations to our very own Janey Ball who was awarded Paul Harris Fellowship Sapphire by our District Governor, Lynette Stassen!

"Janey had an amazing successful year as District Media and really succeeded in “shining the light on Rotary” during 2017-2018. Apart from this achievement she also initiated and/or worked with a number of other Rotarians on other projects like “From information to inspiration”; the water saving project with City; the Ubuntu project of your club; the environmental project with Lew; keeping D9350 in the media; frequently update and add to our District Facebook; made me a Twitter DG (although that one failed 😊) and many more."

VOCATIONAL AWARDS EVENING

Thank you to all Newlands members and their partners who joined us for our annual Vocational Awards this past Monday. It was wonderful to hear from our bursary students who are all doing extremely well with their studies and many of whom expressed the intention to use their skills to benefit their local communities as soon as they graduate.
