Queenscliffe Bricks 2017
Queenscliffe Bricks is over for another year! It was a wonderful friendly family event shared by 1800 LEGO enthusiasts of all ages.
Megan Blair posted on Facebook: "My children and I attended this morning and had a great time wandering around and chatting to the many wonderfully friendly exhibitors. We all felt really welcome and engaged and have been talking about the many fantastic builds we saw... Thankyou to all of the organisers and exhibitors for putting on another great show." 
The play area saw some very innovative creations and some young LEGO masters had fun in our masterclasses on "LEGO Microscale Creations" - Google it - fantastic stuff.
Thank you
Exhibitors organised by Melbourne Lego User Group (MUGs), Dizzy Toys/Ocean Grove Super Toys for the play zone, Rotarians, community volunteers, Queenscliff Kindergarten for the LEGO themed cake stall, Lions Club for the BBQ and our sponsors Searoad Ferries, Campbell Potts Real Estate, Lighthouse Olive Oil, Point Lonsdale IGA and BIG4 Beacon Resort.
Congratulations
Phoebe (1st) Holly (2cnd) and Della (3rd) - winners of the LEGO Raffle.

Shelterbox donation
Follow our latest Shelterbox. Go to the Shelterbox website's tracking page http://www.shelterboxaustralia.com.au/trackbox.php, set Australia as the country and enter our number 15182. At the moment it's still in the warehouse. 
Depending on the location and nature of the disaster the contents of the box may vary but each box typically contains a disaster relief tent big enough to house a family, a range of survival equipment which might include a water purification system, tools, thermal blankets or mosquito nets and a children’s pack containing drawing books, crayons and pens.
RYDA's back for 2017

On February 16th 149 year 12 students from Bellarine Secondary College  and Geelong Lutheran College experienced RYDA at Beckley Park Corio. RYDA (Rotary Youth Driver Awareness) is a whole day school excursion that provides Year 11 and 12 students with the knowledge, skills and attitudes that will contribute to their safe and responsible behaviour as drivers and passengers. Over 500,000 students across Australia and New Zealand have now attended this outstanding program. Members Wayne & Karen Pecar are on the RYDA Geelong organising committee and Rod Stewart is a volunteer facilitator. Well done all!

Hannah Luck returns from student exchange

Our Rotary exchange student, Hannah Luck, has returned with many stories about her year in rural Denmark (and also a New Zealand accent!). Hannah can now read and speak Danish, has experienced very short (and cold) winter days and an education system where people of all ages are welcomed into the classroom. She also began some lifelong friendships. Welcome back Hannah!
