Busproject
“Every child should get a chance to get to know her or his island better.” Rotarian Huub Bongers once said. Huub noticed that many children never made trips to parts of the island outside their immediate living surroundings,---some children had never even seen the sea!
He therefore, with a number of other Rotarians of the Rotary Club of Curacao, started the Rotary Bus Project on December 18, 1974.
The idea was to every two weeks bring children of the basic schools to a nice destination of their choice.
As of then every two weeks a bus of the ABC Busbedrijf brought children of a class of a basic school to a beautiful beach, a monument, a fort, industry, museum or some other attraction or destination of their choice.
The Rotary Bus Project has in the meantime become a tradition, begun in 1974, the Rotary Bus has brought more than 26,000 children to all sorts of destinations.
Last Wednesday, May 2nd, the 800th bus with 53 children left from the M.C.Piar School. The children first visited the Tula Museum and after a nice lunch the Tumba Museum. It was a wonderful day and the children, wearing 800th Bus T-shirts, enjoyed themselves superbly.
The ABC Busbedrijf has placed their busses at our disposal all these years!
On the picture you can see the children of the M.C.Piarschool and members of the Rotary Club of Curacao with the 800th bustrip.
The Rotary Club of Curaçao is dedicated to promoting health and well-being, focusing on youth through its "Rotary Positive Lifestyle Promotors" initiative. As part of this commitment, the club is launching two key campaigns: 1) Attacking Obesity and 2) It's Time for Mental Health.
These campaigns aim to actively reduce childhood obesity and improve mental health and resilience among young people. Here are some of the projects and events the Rotary Club of Curaçao is planning to support these goals:
-
Hydration and Health Education: The club plans to install water coolers at local schools, coupled with educational programs for both teachers and students on the importance of staying hydrated, exercising regularly, and making healthy food choices.
-
Sports and Self-Esteem: A new basketball court will be built, and the Rotary Club will sponsor introductory lessons. The aim is not only to encourage physical activity but also to boost self-esteem, foster friendships, and teach teamwork through sports.
-
Un Smile pa Korsou: This project will provide free dental check-ups in various neighborhoods. Parents will also receive information on the importance of dental health for their children.
Funds raised by the Rotary Club of Curaçao will directly support these initiatives, all of which align with the mission of promoting "Positive Lifestyle Promotors" for the youth of Curaçao.
