JACLYN Thompson, who graduated from Year 12 at Lourdes Hill College, Hawthorne, last year, has begun a 12 month Rotary exchange experience in Nevada, USA.
Jaclyn is being sponsored by the Rotary Club of South Brisbane and was presented with her official blazer at a combined dinner of St Mary’s Community and the Rotary Club of South Brisbane on December 13.
Rotary Youth Exchange students spend a year living with a host family in a country other than their own.
While the exchange students are learning, the people they meet will be learning as well — about their country, culture, and ideas.
