Finished Project: Zane Atkinson-Gill, Keith Stirling, Roger Playdon, Bill Petschack, Nach Whyman and Oscar Ennis-Wert (absent Mo Jafari)
Five students from Drouin Secondary College’s VCAL (Victorian Certificate of Applied Learning) program have completed their community project with the help of Drouin Rotarians.
“As part of their program, we ask students to complete a community project which benefits others” said Kevin Thorpe, VCAL coordinator at the college. “And this year we are pleased to have the Rotary Club of Drouin mentoring and assisting students with some of those projects”.
Five students worked with Rotarians Bill Petschack and President Roger Playdon to complete construction of a table and seats, with accommodation for wheelchair-based access, which they placed on a cement pad they laid in Alex Goudie Park.
“It was a pleasure to work with these boys who displayed enthusiasm and ability in completing this project” commented President Roger Playdon. “And we were impressed when we learnt they had chosen to go and personally thank some of those who had donated goods or services in support, being Timber HOME Hardware, Drouin Garden Centre and Baw Baw Shire”.
