Rotary Stars

What is it?

A Rotary District 1070 project which offers clubs an opportunity to recognise and reward young children for acts of good citizenship.

The ‘Rotary Stars’ project is open and suitable for all children irrespective of age, talent or academic ability.

It is an easy project to run as it involves a relatively small amount of work by both Rotary Club and school yet the rewards for individual children are immense. The cost to clubs is minimal.

How does it work?

It really is simple.

Your Rotary Club contacts a local primary school to discuss the project with head teacher.
The head teacher is asked to nominate a certain number (club decides number) of children who have been exceptionally good citizens by helping / supporting others, the environment, their school, their community etc. in effect they would be demonstrating ‘Service above Self’.
Your Rotary Club recognises and rewards this good citizenship by presenting children with:

A Rotary Star certificate
A Rotary Star badge
A monetary token of appreciation (often a book token to the value of £5). However, club decides type of token and amount – often in consultation with the head teacher.
