Thursday March 11 2021 marked 1 year to the day since the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic. With the development of vaccines and imminent availability of them to all Canadians, we were fortunate to receive a very informative presentation at our March 11th 2021 weekly meeting.
The presentation was by none other than a grade 5 student, Rosie. Her grandmother is a member of our Rotary club and advised us that Rosie had won a speech contest (on another topic, we want her to give us that speech as well!) and suggested her as a speaker. Given that it was International Womens Week, and with her lineage she is no doubt a future Rotarian, we were happy to welcome her. And she did an awesome job - she was poised and succinct, and I think we all learned something. We took a screenshot of the ZOOM session when she was speaking - she is in the bottom row, second from the left:
Thanks Rosie (and grandma Deb for suggesting) and we'll look forward to hearing your speech contest winning entry about the three levels of government.
