Lions Peace Poster is a competition held each year amongst school children aged between 10 & 12 years of age. The competition is easy... design a poster that promotes world peace. Doesn't get any easier than that. The Oatley Lions typically approach the local Primary Schools and the students attack this with such zeal and enthusiasm. If your School would like to participate in the Peace Poster Program, no matter where in Australia you are, drop us an email, and we will put you in touch with your local Lions Club.
Lions Australia Mints are a convenient form of fundraising. We have many of the rolled mints that you see in the picture at retail outlets in and around the suburb of Oatley. Typically, shop owners allow us to display our mints on their shop counters and have even been known to contact us when supplies run low. Mints is an Australia wide Lions project and much of the proceeds goes to the Australian Lions Children's Mobility Foundation
Lions Christmas Cakes too, are another regular fundraising activity, with Christmas Cakes available in 1Kg and 1.5Kg sizes. They are also available individually sliced and sealed packs as well. The cakes are commercially made and contain the finest ingredients. I'm told that a cakes flavour is enhanced over time, and that a cake purchase this Christmas will definitely taste better next Christmas... It must be the high quality Queensland Rum used in the manufacturing process.In recent times we have also sold 1Kg Christmas puddings which also rival the cakes for quality. Both make excellent Christmas presents
Youth of the Year is held each year in March (but we start talking to local high schools in November the year before). The contest is open to all students in their senior years (years 10,11 or 12). The contest has 2 components. The first is an interview where you are scored on such factors as personality, outgoingness, general knowledge and presentation. The second part of the contest involves 2 impromptu speeches and 1 prepared speech. The successful contestant will go on to zone, region, district and if successful, national and international levels. If your School would like to participate in the contest, send us an email, and we will contact you will further details
