FUN DAY. Youth activities organized by Paarl Rotary are back in action after the end of the Covid lockdown. A fun day for members of 6 Interact clubs at local high schools was recently presented. Here some of the Interactors practise their kickboxing skills. Interact clubs are youth satellite clubs of Rotary where learners focus on service to the community. Members of the local clubs had the opportunity to meet and compare notes during the day’s events.
