NeilHowie
InanemailtoNeilfromDrHancock,hecomments;
“Neil I have approached Lyn Mayne the director of dental services previously about volunteer drivers ,She said the problem is the logistics of what to do with the drivers for the days the clinics are on and organising accommodation meals etc, so she was grateful for the offer but at this stage it is too difficult to organise. I will let you know if this changes”.

Dear Mr Fraser,I’m just emailing to say a huge thank you for allowing me to have the amazing experience that is NYSF because not only has it taught me so many things and allowed me to meet so many amazing people in STEM but it has also allowed me to meet some people I know are going to be life long friends.
It was so much greater and impactful than I ever thought it would be and has definitely changed my outlook on so many things and where I want to be after I finish high school and university. Going to the NYSF has been one of the greatest experiences of my life and you have no idea how grateful I am to both you and the rest of Roseville Chase Rotary Club for supporting me to be able to go. Thank you.
Sincerely,Sarah Armstrong

ThefollowingemailmessagehasbeenreceivedfromapersonaccessingourWebsite.
It’s taken me a quite a while to get around to writing to you, but I just wanted to say a big thank you to you & your members for all your hard work in creating & funding the children’s playground at the end of Babbage Rd & Malga Ave, Roseville Chase. We were very blessed to have first child just a few months after your opening. And because of it’s relative closeness, it provided us with a great physical & mental space for our girl to enjoy & explore. We have sadly moved away but we will forever stop by to introduce her to her first ever park’.
Thank you so much’Gunther, Ellie, Mei-Yee & Lottie
