Rotary Exchange Host Families Needed
Ann-Sophie headed to Mount Beauty
The Rotary Club of Mount Beauty is delighted to announce that an incoming student from Germany has now been assigned to spend a year in our valley from July this year until June next year. Ann-Sophie comes from a small town around one hour north of Munich, where her family runs a boutique bakery. Her town is about the size of Mount Beauty, and she is very excited about coming to spend the year with us.
During her stay Ann-Sophie will attend school at Mount Beauty Secondary College and will be hosted in three to four local homes. Families of all types may apply to host a student for two to three months. They do not need to have the same aged children, or any children at all for that matter. They just need a safe and welcoming home environment. Ongoing support is provided by the local Rotary Club.
For more information, or to express interest in hosting Ann-Sophie please contact Bob Flower on 0417246303
