For the past seventy two years the Rotary Club of Whitley Bay has been recognising the outstanding achievements of some of North Tyneside's young citizens in the community with the award of the Civic Cups.
This was recently celebrated at a special meeting of the Rotary Club at Whitley Bay Golf Club.The awards this year were presented by Cllr. Cath Davis, Deputy Chairman of North Tyneside Council. Two winners were from Monkseaton High School Alex Lisle and Bobbi Watson and from Whitley Bay High School Georgina Burn and Taylor Scully.
All the winners gave a brief outline to club members and guests as to why their school had nominated them for these special awards and club President Brian Royce said, "I am delighted to welcome the staff and students from both schools and to listen about their contributions to our community. The variety of personal achievements they have attained is truly remarkable from a Kick Boxing Champion to a supporting good works in homes, church life, and the community in general. We have been fortunate enough tonight to witness a reflection on what these young people have been able to tell us through their presentations and this is a positive reflection on themselves and the schools they represent."
Each of the students received a cash award, certificate and a cup for Young Citizen of the Year and once presented, the club was delighted to invite the students and staff for an evening meal which was rounded off with an informative speech from Deputy Council Chairman, Cllr Cath Davis.
