Jacaranda Festival 2015

Rotary Club of Applecross

The warm weather didn't keep crowds away from the popular Jacaranda Festival

 at the weekend with the vibrant purple trees providing welcome shade

 and a burst of colour along Ardross Street. 

The Rotary Club of Applecross presented the 15th annual Festival

 with more than 130 stalls, two stages with live entertainment

 and roaming street entertainment

. Acts by local schools Applecross Primary, Applecross High School 

and Melville Primary drew large crowds,

 as did Festival regulars 2 Cent Professionals, Uptempo and South Side Symphony Orchestra.

 Cuisine was definitely a feature of this year’s event 

with culinary delights from around the world

. Mayor Russell Aubrey and Member for Alfred Cove Dean Nalder 

officially opened the event and joined in the Festival fun

. All funds raised will support local community groups including Esther Foundation 

and Waylen Bay Sea Scouts.

Rotary Club of Northam

 A concert in Australia’s Perth on November 17

 raised money to fund efforts to stop children from drowning in Vietnam.

The Vietnam Consulate in Perth brought handicrafts to the show,

 which it organised with the Rotary Club of Hillarys.

According to the head of the club, Graham Kent,

 disadvantaged Vietnamese children who live near water

 are particularly prone to drowning,

 as they cannot afford to learn proper swimming techniques.

Thus, all funds raised will be used to send two Australian

 swimming teachers to Vietnam, providing lessons

 for their peers at Swim Vietnam.

Swim Vietnam is a charity based in central Vietnam

 that gives free swimming and water safety lessons to children,

 and trains local adults as swimming teachers.

It was the third event the Rotary Club of Hillarys

 hosted to support the Vietnamese charity.-

Buster Keaton -

The Art of the Gag

A Very Touching Story, Spain

This is the story of Justino,

 a night security guard at a mannequin factory in Spain

. Because of his late night work he was mostly alone all the time 

and Justino never really got to see his day coworkers,

 but he would try to communicate with his fellow employees

 by cheering them up using the mannequins at the factory.
