Kids with wings

The Rotary Cub of Albury West partnered with Regional Express to give some deserving students the opportunity to fly.

Rotary Club Of Albury West believe that every child deserves the opportunity to become the very best they can be.

On Sunday 17th March, the Rotary Cub of Albury West partnered with Airline Regional Express to give some deserving students the opportunity to fly. This event was by invitation to schools with kids with year 5 or 6 students. The prerequisite was for children who have never flown before, mainly because of no opportunity to do so. A BBQ was provided free of charge for parents and siblings waiting on the ground at Albury Airport.

Rotary thank their supporters Rex Airlines, Aus Flight Handling, Aero Refuellers and Air Services Australia. In particular thanks goes to Regional Express airline crew who donated their time including Captain Ben Jones, Second Officer Daryl Sheedy and Flight Attendant Belinda York.
