No need to let me know if you are coming, just come along. https://www.laupasat.sg/
 
 
Hope to see you there.    DG Ineke Oliver

ROMAC - Rotary Oceania Medical Aid for Children
 
ROMAC is looking for a new Operations Director, who is a very significant, senior member of the team in this successful Multi District Rotary Project. The person must be a member of a Rotary Club in Zone 8.
The ROMAC Operations Director is a member of the ROMAC Board and a director of 2 charities. The Operations Director works with the Medical Director to identify possible ROMAC patients and then, with Regional Chairs and Operations Managers to oversee the approval, management, treatment and rehabilitation of the children.
We are looking for a very organised person with good leadership and project management skills, who is competent with information technologies. The Operations Director needs excellent verbal and written communication skills and a strong desire to help others and make a difference in the lives of children and their families.

ROMAC has a current vacancy for a HR, Training and Recruitment Chair. The HR, Training and Recruitment Chair leads a small team of volunteers, is a member of the ROMAC Engagement Committee and the ROMAC Management Committee, and must be a current member of a Rotary Club in Zone 8.
 
The role reports to the ROMAC Chair and is responsible for human resource management. It is an important role because ROMAC relies totally on volunteers to manage its activities. Their recruitment, induction, onboarding, training and performance management are key to the organisation’s success.

TREEMISSION
 
Treemission is a Rotary tree planting program that has goals of informing Rotarians about what is happening in the environment, what they can do about it and deliver tree planting activities.
 
2024 Treemission tree planting event
 
This is the project and location:
Exciting times ahead in 2024 for treemission as we move to support restoration work on the Wungong River near Armadale. The State government has provided significant funding to ensure the Wungong River becomes a healthy river corridor for local wildlife, and for us to enjoy into the future.

Treemission has linked again with SERCUL this time to rehabilitate the river course. Matt Barbour, with SERCUL, will lead us for two days in July (20th and 21st) to plant a target of 3,000 plants per day (at least).
 
Each day starts at 0900hrs with a briefing, then morning tea at 1000hrs and a sausage sizzle at 1230.

Matt will provide planting equipment and plants (but I suggest you bring your favourite gloves and trowel), and Treemission and our Rotarians will cater for morning tea and a sausage sizzle.

You will need to bring personal items such as sunscreen, hats, boots, water and any other items you might think you will need including a chair? There are toilets located nearby at the shopping centre.
 
Approximate location of planting is shown on the map below.
