Club Day
at
Columbus Primary
***********************
The Rotary Club of South East Nassau (RCSEN) was excited to participate in the Columbus Primary School's Club Day, assisting students with signing up for the Interact Club. The event, held on campus, provided a great opportunity for students to learn about the values of leadership, community service, and global citizenship that are at the heart of the Interact Club.
RCSEN members were on hand to guide students through the sign-up process, answer questions, and share inspiring stories of how Interact can make a positive impact not only on their school but also on the wider community.
By encouraging students to join the Interact Club, RCSEN aims to foster a new generation of young leaders who are committed to making a difference in their world.
The excitement and enthusiasm from the students were evident, and we look forward to seeing the new Interact members in action as they embark on their journey of service and leadership.
