Exchange Student up-date.

Rotary's student exchange programme is one of our most popular programmes;  there will be discussions soon as to whether our club can support in in-bound student from Australia starting in January (the beginning of the school year in the southern hemisphere).  

 

In the meantime, we have news both from our out-bound student to Finland, Kyle, and from our in-bound student, Tyler, who is from New Zealand.  Kyle is having a great time, but understandably, finding the language tough.  He has sent a picture of a banner exchange with his host Rotary Club.  Tyler, our in-bound student from New Zealand has been on a canoe trip, sponsored by the Rotary Club of Peterborough-Kaartha, designed to build cross-cultural links with our first Nations people.  Here is a link to information about the trip from the Peterborough Club:  http://portal.clubrunner.ca/220/Stories/six-day-canoe-trip  

 

The Peterborough television station carried a news item about the trip, including a brief interview with Tyler:  Click here to watch:    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jww7f8UkRks
