Rotary to sponsor students to attend Dookie

The Rotary Club of Umina Beach will sponsor three students from Brisbane Water Secondary College to attend the Dookie Campus of the University of Melbourne.

The students will be chosen by the school's Head of Agriculture, Ms Louisa Briggs.

The sponsorship will allow the students to attend Dookie Campus and take part in laboratory and fieldwork courses.

The club will sponsor and pay for the students and a guardian in a family cabin while there and cover all fuel, accommodation and meal costs as they travel to Dookie Campus and back.

"This is an exceptional opportunity for these students and the Rotary Club of Umina Beach is proud to sponsor this worthwhile project involving our local, very motivated youth," said Rotary club president Mr Geoff Melville.
