The three storey boys home is progressing very well and the roof will be
completed in the next week.
The building itself should be completed by August but there are many things
that need to be completed before the building can be occupied.
Fitting out the kitchen is the number one priority but setting up rainwater
tanks and solar hot water will closely follow. |

The Rotary Club of Encounter Bay has nominated an innovative Wilderness Therapy Expedition for students at Victor Harbor High School’s Flexible Learning Options
(FLO) as its Signature Project for 2016-17

The Club has provided support to FLO over many years,including funding for the purchase of new computers.Assistance has also been given to encourage students
to attend the very successful local Roadsafe Youth Driving Awareness program which is run by the club. Early in October 2016, students from FLO will be taking part in the 14-day Wilderness Therapy Expeditionwhich, while similar to South Australia’s long-standing Operation Flinders program, is instead run on a therapeutic base. The expedition leader, Will Dobud, is a young American who has successfully worked for
many years with disadvantaged young people in remote areas of Canada and Alaska.
