Congratualtions Model Farms High School on creating a new Z Club. With lots of help from Janine Ricketts, ZI D24 Z Club co-ordinator, and gaining approval to set up a Z Club at the school, we worked with Model Farms HS, the Vice Principal, Robyn and two of our members who had been school teachers, Saskia and Diana to put together a meeting. Once we had approval from the Head Teacher we arranged for a banner to be used at their meetings, and we were all ready to go. The inaugural meeting was arranged which was attended by 30 students who were interested in being a part of the club. We organised the paperwork and invited Bernardine Guy our Governor, our club president Brenda Bradbery, treasurer Donna Fraser, our two volunteers, Saskia and Diana, and Area 1 director, Kaye Amies, to be present for the chartering. We had a lovely lunch provided by our club, and there was a great turnout of students, both girls and boys. The following week, we presented their new committee, president, secretary and treasurer with their Z club badges, and the club was up and running.

To date, they have had some great meetings with everyone taking part, and are looking at running a Battle of the Bands fundraiser, arranging a special day to make birthing kits, and discussing various ways to raise funds to buy the components to make the kits.
