We congratulate Alvaro Nola-Dodd from Glendowie College who received the AUT Roy Geddes Science Education Award, providing travel to London to attend the prestigious London International 
Youth Science Forum. Alvaro is one of two Yr 13 students selected and sponsored by St Johns to participate in the 2018 National Rotary Science & Technology Forum, held in Auckland 14-27 Jan. The two Roy Geddes awardees were among 174 high-achieving science students selected by Rotary clubs from throughout NZ. Our astute selectors, Ainie Kwok and Roshyn Singh, chose Alvaro. St Johns is also involved in the Science Forum through my District coordinator role and in hosting two evening groups of students to my workplace Landcare Research. We will invite Alvaro to speak to us about his experience of the Science Forum.
