On Tuesday morning September 17, our RCNS Chair of Youth Services, Rudi Atkinson spoke of the Rotary work in support of youth leadership and development; more particularly, of the ongoing service our Club provides. She focused on the recently concluded, one-year, international exchange which saw us hosting Macarena Gimeno from Spain, and at the same time, dispatching Norfolk student Sophie Mummery to Sweden.Sophie then gave us an accounting of her year in Sweden. She focussed on her host families, her foreign schooling, her local Swedish travels and wider European tours. Interesting comments on cultural differences and lessons learned highlighted her entertaining presentation. Clearly, she benefitted from an extraordinary year in her life.
Rudi offered our Club appreciation to Sophie for representing Rotary and Canada so well as for her interesting presentation.
