⚓🍰 A wonderful afternoon with the TS Walrus Navy Cadets! 💙

On Sunday, President Lola, Rebecca and Heather joined the Navy Cadet Support Group - Training Ship Walrus for a very special fundraising afternoon tea, helping raise funds for their upcoming trip to Sydney! 🚢

And what an afternoon tea it was! 👏

The cadets put their cooking skills to the test, showcasing everything they’ve learnt through their various cooking courses. The food was absolutely delicious, beautifully presented and a real credit to everyone involved! 🧁☕

We were also treated to a fantastic performance by the unit’s drum line! 🥁

While there, our members had the chance to check out the new stove and rangehood recently purchased by the Rotary Club of Beenleigh for the unit. It’s wonderful to see our support helping these young people develop their skills.

A big thank you to the cadets and everyone involved for a lovely afternoon. We wish you all the best for your Sydney adventure! ⚓💙💛

💙💛 A wonderful night celebrating The Rotary Foundation! 🌏

On Wednesday evening, members of the Rotary Club of Beenleigh joined our friends at Rotary Club of Wynnum & Manly for their annual Foundation Dinner.

It was a fantastic opportunity to hear more about the incredible work made possible through The Rotary Foundation, from the global fight to end polio and bringing clean drinking water to communities in need, to supporting future leaders through Rotary Peace Fellowships. 🌍💧🕊️

These are the projects that remind us just how far Rotary’s impact reaches beyond our own communities!

A delicious dinner, wonderful company and a successful auction raising valuable funds to support The Rotary Foundation’s ongoing work made for a great evening.

A big thank you to the Rotary Club of Wynnum Manly for hosting such a lovely night. We’re always proud to support our fellow Rotary clubs and the amazing things we can achieve together! 💙💛

💙💛 What a big night at Rotary Beenleigh! 🙌

We packed plenty into this week’s meeting, with a little bit of everything that makes Rotary special!

🇨🇱 Diego’s Aussie adventure!

Our Youth Exchange student Diego shared stories about his family, hometown in Chile and his love of art and volleyball! 🎨🏐

He’s been busy exploring Australia too, with trips to Australia Zoo, Noosa, kayaking adventures and surfing with fellow exchange students!

A special shout-out to the Sykes family for helping Diego settle into his Aussie adventure, and to everyone making his exchange so memorable. ❤️

We also congratulated Diego again on receiving his Outstanding Visual Portfolio Award at school! 🌟

👏 Welcome, Abigail!

We were thrilled to officially induct Abigail as our newest Rotarian! With a wonderful background working with communities in Australia and the UK, we’re excited to have her join our Rotary family.

🏡 Supporting local young people

Zareena Rajan from Anglicare joined us to share an update on Beenleigh’s new youth homelessness accommodation, which will provide housing and 24/7 support.

Our club has proudly contributed towards furnishing four rooms in the new facility, and it was wonderful to hear about the difference this project will make.

🌏 Helping when disaster strikes

Ros shared an update on a Rotary Australia World Community Service (RAWCS) initiative involving Airbnb, helping people affected by disasters access temporary accommodation.

🧺 Don’t Throw in the Towel!

We even squeezed in some more towel rolling for our Don’t Throw in the Towel project, giving end-of-life towels a new purpose! ♻️

👋 And as it was Bring a Friend Night, we loved welcoming some new faces along to see Rotary in action!

Phew! What a night! Another great reminder of the many ways Rotary brings people together and makes a difference. 💙💛

People of Action, that’s Rotary Beenleigh! 🙌

🎨🏆 A big congratulations to Diego! 🇨🇱👏

We’re pretty proud of our Rotary Youth Exchange student, Diego, who received the Outstanding Visual Portfolio Award at the Windaroo Valley State High School Performing Arts Awards last night! 🌟

Our very own Heather and host mum Lisa were there to cheer him on and represent the Rotary Club of Beenleigh as he accepted his award.

It’s wonderful to see Diego making the most of his time here in Australia, getting involved in school life and sharing his talents along the way.

Congratulations, Diego! We’re so proud of you and can’t wait to see what else your exchange year brings! 💙💛

🫖🍓 650 scones later… what a day! 🙌

Today our Rotary crew was kept very busy at the Forde Seniors Expo, serving up approximately 650 scones with jam & cream to attendees and stallholders! 😍

We may have only managed a few photos before the rush hit, but there was certainly no shortage of scones, smiles and good conversations throughout the day. 💙

A huge thank you to our friends from Rotary Club of Loganholme, our wonderful Friends of Rotary, and all of our volunteers who rolled up their sleeves and helped make today happen. 👏

It was also pretty special to have so many people stop and thank us for the work Rotary does throughout the community. Those little moments mean a lot. 💛

Thank you to Rowan Holzberger MP and his team for bringing the Forde Seniors Expo together and having us along.

Another big day of Rotary in action! 🫶

🇵🇬❤️ Yesterday, the Rotary Club of Beenleigh was once again proud to support the pngfqi Papua New Guinea Independence Day celebrations with our members and friends taking charge of the two ticketing gates! 🎟️🙌

And as always, we couldn’t be there without getting amongst all the action too! From the incredible traditional dress and performances to the music, food and fantastic community spirit, it’s a day absolutely bursting with colour and culture. 🌺🥁💃

We love being part of this wonderful celebration every year and playing our small part in bringing our community together. 💙💛

A huge thank you to the organisers for having us back, and to everyone who stopped for a chat, shared a laugh or gave us a smile on their way through the gates.

Already looking forward to the next one! 🇵🇬🤝🇦🇺

💙 A little more comfort when it matters most.

The Rotary Club of Beenleigh was proud to help fund new lounges for the Palliative Care Ward at Logan Hospital, creating a more comfortable space for patients and their families.

This was a wonderful collaborative effort, with contributions from the Palliative Care Fundraising Committee, Rotary Club of Loganholme and our own Rotary Club of Beenleigh. Together, we were able to help cover the cost of replacing the much-needed furniture.

We recently had the opportunity to see the new lounges in place and spend some time with the wonderful ward staff, hearing more about the important work they do each day.

Sometimes it’s the simple things that can make a real difference. 💙💛

Thank you to everyone involved in helping make this happen.
