Australia Day 2021: Reflect. Respect. Celebrate.
A very busy but rewarding morning as the Rotary Club of Kwinana
had the pleasure of hosting Australia Day celebrations at Calista Oval.
Members and partners were busy from 6am onwards with set-up, preparation
and serving of free breakfast to the community, car marshalling, and other duties.
Our very own Kim Beciri did a fine job as MC for the event.
After a 'Welcome to Country' address by local Noongar elder Charlie Kickett,
valued club member Barry Winmar provided a traditional play of the didgeridoo.
Following this, entertainment was provided by local cultural groups
, including belly dancers and Ngaru Pou.
A special mention goes to music man Joseph for providing such
wonderful background music to enhance the general ambience of
the occasion.
** HAPPY AUSTRALIA DAY **
Australia Day in 2021 is an opportunity to celebrate the Australian spirit,
our mateship and our sense of community.
We
find optimism and hope as we look to the future.
We reflect on our nation’s past, which began more than 65,000 years ago
, and the impact of European settlement on the First
Nations Australians.
Our national day is a time, above all, for inclusion and respect.
It enables us to pause, listen and gain a greater understanding
of Australia’s First Australians, culture and heritage as we work
towards reconciliation.
We celebrated Australia Day by volunteering with our Partners the SJ Lions Club
and the Byford Baptists Church to present the annual BBQ at Briggs Park
. The Serpentine Jarrahdale Shire folk organised another great event.
This is our 22nd year of service to OZ Day for the 2021 year.
Got the job done, had fun and helped make it a great day.

A huge thanks to the Waylen Bay Sea Scouts for the invitation to join them

with 65 of their members helping throughout the day.
This is an excellent example of the benefits of Rotary partnering
with a
community group to ensure the project continues to meet the needs of the
community.
