Transcript of Megan Weber from Steve Wright Headspace as Jeff Neale from ...
A great final club meeting for my Rotary year. Very pleasing indeed to have visitors Megan Weber from Cando
4 kids, Steve Wright from Headspace as well as Jeff Neale from the Rotary Club of Campbelltown (where I
took the opportunity to advise him that our Board of Directors at the Board meeting last week nominated him
as an Honorary Member).
The thought provoking speaker was Sandy Morey, a member of the Rotary Club of Hyde Park and an Inspector
with the South Australia Police. In his current role as SAPOL Operations Inspector for the Strategy, Policy
and Programs Section, Sandy oversees a number of portfolios including youth programs, crime prevention
and multiculturalism; with a component of this work involving overseeing development of ideas and
engagement with the community to prevent extremist behavior. He said that In our heightened security
environment with, amongst other things, new laws focusing on potential and returning recruits associated
with overseas Jihadist campaigns, and in the light of the Sydney Lindt Cafe Siege and the Charlie Hebdo attack
in Paris, Rotarians should ask ourselves, can we do anything to help prevent terrorism, and does Rotary have
a role in preventing terrorism? His well understood answer was that Rotary can play a role through the building
of relationships across all communities, engaging youth in RYPEN and RYLA and the pursuit of peace.
Mina and I both presented proceeds to the primary beneficiaries of The Reel Event, Megan Weber and Steve
Wright. Once again my congratulations to all who ran and helped with The Reel Event and enabled us to
benefit the community.
On Wednesday, I had the privilege of helping Siony with interviewing three most impressive year 11 students
from Mary MacKillop as nominees for next year’s National Youth Science Forum (NYSF). Also helping us with
the interview was our last year’s successful NYSF student and past club guest speaker Elyse Gambell, who was
able to fill the gaps with some very well thought out questions and advice.

There is a magnet in your heart that will attract true friends. That magnet is unselfishness, thinking of others
first; when you learn to live for others, they will live for you. Paramahansa Yogananda

The Object of Rotary is to encourage and foster the ideal of service as a basis of a worthy enterprise and in
particular to encourage and foster:
The development of acquaintance as an opportunity for service.
High ethical standards in business and professions: the recognition of the worthiness of all useful
occupations: and the dignifying by every Rotarian of their occupation as an opportunity to serve society.
The application of the ideal service by every Rotarian to their personal, business and community life.
The advancement of international understanding, goodwill and peace through a world fellowship of business
and professional people united in the ideal of service.
The Four Way Test of the things we think, say or do:
Is it the truth?
Is it fair to all concerned?
Will it build goodwill and better friendships?
Will it be beneficial to all concerned?
For good food, good fellowship and
the opportunity to serve through Rotary we give thanks.
