Join Rotary Peninsula 2.0 BirthTree and Family Garden and help more children be safer around water

Do you know someone who was born this year?
Are you a local family looking for a living connection to the area? 

Rotary’s Annual Birth Tree and Family Garden project invites you join this year’s tree and plaque, celebrating the newest members of our growing community. 

Join this year’s Birth Tree for an investment of $50. For this, you will receive a timeless connection of your loved one in the form of a tree and plaque, but more importantly, $45 of every contribution goes straight back here to PARC and PINES to help more children build confidence in the water.

Where does your donation go?

At PARC, we have a vision that Every Child in Frankston Can Swim. However, at the moment, only around 20% of children in our local community are currently gaining ongoing vital survival skills which could save their life.

By participating in the Birth Tree, your contribution will go directly to Funding baby swim programs.

This which would see us visit mothers’ groups at Frankston Maternal Health Centres. These mothers’ groups would be invited to begin their water safety and familiarisation experience with a 30 minute session at PARC.

Help us achieve this big, important, life saving goal that Every Child in Frankston Can Swim! Buy your Birth Tree name today, donate now.

Learn to Save a Life: Restart a Heart Day at PARC ❤️

Join us on Saturday, October 12th, for Restart a Heart Day, a vital community event that raises awareness about cardiac arrest and empowers people with lifesaving CPR skills. Hosted by Monash University, this event will bring together children, adults, and healthcare professionals to help build a safer, more prepared community.
 
Did you know that only 1 in 10 people survive a cardiac arrest? Most cardiac arrests happen in the home, so learning how to act fast could save the life of someone you love. Restart a Heart day will teach you how to respond in just three simple steps: CALL, PUSH, SHOCK.
 
Drop by PARC on Saturday morning between 9am – 11am to learn from paramedics and paramedic students, who will be on hand to guide you through these critical steps and boost your confidence in delivering CPR. Every minute counts when restarting a heart – let’s work together to improve survival rates!
