Ray Calver has worked as a Social Worker with children and young people for around 7 years, after 10 years in the corporate sector. The title of Ray’s speech will be ‘Believing in Children and Young People and Working in Youth Justice’. This talk will focus on believing in children and young people, and the amazing impact this has on them. It will cover several stories about specific people and draw on domestic and international research. The audience will have a chance to understand what happens when a young person commits a criminal offence in New Zealand.

It is that time of year again to think about getting organised for Christmas and what better way to start, than by ordering some Rotary Christmas Puddings, whether for yourself or to donate to a worthy cause, or to do both - this year will be donating puddings to the Auckland City Mission. Puddings are now packaged in a heat-proof bowl (though I still have some in tins if anyone prefers). These puddings are still $20 each, with $5 being donated to our Club, so please contact Jacqui in the office if you would like to place an order – they can be purchased in any quantity (and come in cartons of six).
