Partnership with Eastbourne Primary School develops further

Eastbourne Primary School's Wellbeing Hub is now open and the Club was pleased to provide funds to purchase furniture and fittings for this much needed facility which includes consulting rooms, a quiet space and a place for just discovering yourself! 

Most recently, we've also been able to provide funds to purchase science equipment to support the school's new STEM focus programs. 

Rye Junior Gift

We were delighted to partner with the Rye Sports & Social Club in providing sponsorship for the Rye Junior Gift.

We also supported the Club financially in the production of the Local Business Directory - another fundraising initiative of the Club. 

In addition, for the 2023/2024 year, the Club has provided funds to support:   

-      -  Story Dogs (assistance for students in the school setting),

-     -   Rosebud Police Senior Citizens Register,

-       - Tootgarook Netball Club,

-       - supporting families in need and

         - Seawinds Community Hub to purchase a new dishwasher, and funds for a new website for Seawinds Early Learning. 

Assisted by two Rotary District 9820 grants, we were once again able to fund two Hardship Scholarships for students who needed equipment.

Two Rosebud Secondary College students were sponsored to attend the week-long National Youth Science Forum (NYSF), and other to attend the Science Experience for Years 10/11 students.

Rotary Youth Leadership Award (RYLA) 

We also sponsored a team to attend RYLA in 2023 (see pictured).... the enthusiasm, energy and positivity of this team who met at the week-long leadership training has led to the establishment of a new Rotaract Peninsula 2.0 Club (for 18+ young people)

New BBQ Shelter opened on the Capel Sound Foreshore

As part of the project which brings together all of the Rotary Clubs across the Mornington Peninsula in partnership with the Mornington Peninsula Shire Council, Rotary Rosebud-Rye has partnered with the Capel Sound Foreshore Committee in providing $40K to build a BBQ Shelter adjacent to the Peninsula Trail, as it winds through the beautiful Capel Sound Foreshore reserve. 

As part of the further development of the area of the Peninsula Trail that Rotary Rosebud-Rye is responsible for, discussions are underway with the Whitecliffs Foreshore Reserve Committee to help with another infrastructure project at Blairgowrie.
