The Rotary Club of Karrinyup is excited to announce a new partnership with Directions Workforce Solutions to launch the Directions Workforce Solutions – Karrinyup Rotary Club Tools Scholarship. We are delighted to be part of this initiative, investing directly in the next generation of skilled workers.

🔨 We’re extremely happy to announce that Directions Workforce Solutions has partnered with the Karrinyup Rotary Club to launch the Directions Workforce Solutions – Karrinyup Rotary Club Tools Scholarship.

The scholarship will provide up to $400 in approved tools or work-related equipment to eligible apprentices in Western Australia. 🧰

For an apprentice just starting out, the cost of getting the right tools together can be a real barrier. We’re proud to be able to offer some extra support to help apprentices get equipped, get working and keep progressing through their apprenticeship.

The scholarship is open to eligible apprentices within the first 12 months of their apprenticeship, with up to 16 scholarships available each year.

We’re incredibly grateful to the Karrinyup Rotary Club for partnering with us on this initiative and helping us invest directly in the next generation of skilled workers.

🤝 More information about eligibility and the scholarship terms is available from Directions.

Get ready to join Rotarians across Perth to Ride the Train on 24 October to raise awareness of Rotary's commitment to End Polio Now.

The plan is for Rotarians from Rotary WA to ride the trains throughout the WA Railway Network on Saturday 24 October wearing a red Polio T-shirt promoting 'End Polio Now' and creating awareness in the public domain.
Although the event is free, we would love you to register so you are covered by insurance and so we can see what impact we are making.Join us - and ride a train or two to create awareness of the End Polio campaign.
Get a team together and have some fun.
Today there are 98 cases in Afghanistan and Pakistan. Rotarians around the world are attempting to achieve necessary funding through their clubs with each dollar raised being matched 2:1 by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
Our Goal for 2026 is to raise awareness of Polio in our communities on 24 October, in order to raise $50,000 for this year’s ‘End Polio Now’ campaign from Club sponsorships, NOT from the public.
You can ride the trains anytime between 8am and 6.00pm, wearing your Polio T-Shirt. If you can't ride a train then just wear your T-shirt for the day when you are shopping, exercising, walking etc.,
At the end of the day, we will be meeting - informally - at The Island Bar at Elizabeth Quay to swap stories and a bit of fellowship.

21 September marks International Peace Day. Rotarians speak out against all forms of discrimination and violence.

“Achieving peace is not passive or automatic.
It’s an active and deliberate choice to invest in a better future.”

On Monday’s Peace Day, UN Secretary-General António Guterres calls on world leaders to invest in a peaceful future for all people.

He also recognizes peacebuilders around the world — from volunteers and advocates to civil society leaders — who are bridging divides, uniting communities and pushing for dialogue.

From speaking out against violence to challenging all forms of discrimination, there are many ways each of us can take action for a more just and equitable future.
