Intermediate School Breakfasts
| Whakatu Rotary cooked and served breakfasts for Intermediate students. One day for boys. One for girls. There were inspirational speakers and each student could invite a special guest. It was a most significant school project for the club. For a number of years they prepared, cooked, served (and cleaned up!) breakfast over two mornings every second year for Nelson Intermediate students and a parent/carer/significant adult as part of leadership and mentoring programme. The first day was for the girls and the second for the boys. Each breakfast was like a school formal, with fully set tables in the hall, followed by a guest speaker promoting leadership, education, goal-setting, etc for the young people, who really looked forward to it. At present, the tradition has not continued but is a good example of a fun and meaningful project which brings a Rotary Club into contact with the school, staff and students.
