Last Meeting
Changeover: Glenda Barratt - Outgoing President
President Glenda reflected on a Rotary year she will long cherish, thanking members for braving a bleak evening to mark its close, and welcoming the incoming leadership. In conversations with past Presidents, Glenda learned that many consider this role the highlight of their Rotary lives. She emphasised the value of listening, the strength of relationships within the club, and the guiding importance of the Four-Way Test. Despite difficult economic times, inspiring speakers and meaningful projects - such as the ‘Walk for Mental Health’ and ‘Healthy in the Hutt’ - demonstrated Rotary’s positive impact.

Robin Fenwick - Incoming President
Robin began by thanking Glenda for her committed and well‑balanced year as President, noting that managing Rotary responsibilities alongside her role as a City Councillor was no small task, yet she carried it out with dedication. Robin also acknowledged Past District Governor Carol Green and District Governor Brent Gerrard for joining the occasion and supporting the event. He also thanked Kenny Mill, our excellent entertainer for the evening. 
Robin then outlined the transition into his own term, expressing confidence in the knowledgeable team supporting him.
