Another Award Presented!!

🎊 We are thrilled to share more exciting news from our Rotary Club of St John's Northwest!

President-Elect Regina Russell presented Ronan Leonard, a talented 13-year-old student, with a $1500 Evan and Neva Johnson Music Bursary to assist and further his musical studies.

Ronan is one of the five outstanding students to receive this prestigious bursary for the 2025-2026 academic year.

He is photographed with his proud music teacher, Mary Lynn Hiscock, who has nurtured Ronan's musical talent since he was four years old. "Ronan is a gifted musician with a natural affinity for music," says Mrs. Hiscock. Ronan was so grateful for the bursary and is eager to continue his musical journey with Mrs. Hiscock.

We offer our warmest congratulations to Ronan and wish him all the best in his future musical endeavors! 👏🎉
