This year marked the 30th anniversary for one of Rotary's best New Zealand programmes - supported by clubs from all six Rotary Districts across the country.
The Rotary National Science and Technology Forum was held from the 12th to 26th of January. The forum is a programme for OUTSTANDING all round science, maths and technology students in Year 12 who will be returning to Year 13 and are planning to study the sciences or technology at tertiary level.
 
This fully residential programme is conducted by Rotary and the Tertiary Institutions of Auckland. By the end of the Forum students should have a better understanding of the tertiary courses they wish to follow and a fuller appreciation of the place of science and technology in the wider community.  It also provides an opportunity for high achieving students to spend time with similar minded people, and the experiences gained invariably result in overall personal growth and renewed motivation to succeed.
 
Not only do the students get exposed a wide variety of sciences and leading edge technologies, they have a great time.
