Peter's visit to our club this week - the annual event in the diary of the District Governor will be an opportunity for our members to meet with and hear his views on where Rotary is in the world today.
Uniting for Good, the power of collaboration
Acknowledging that our members are our greatest asset and our greatest opportunity to use their skills and connections to increase our impact.
Together we can explore the ability to better to collaborate with each other, with other clubs and other groups to achieve the best outcome.
We don't need to work harder we need to work smarter and unlock the opportunity that collaboration brings.

Peter grew up in a family that volunteered in various ways and with different groups, which led him to volunteer from an early age. In late 2002, his involvement with the local Basketball Association introduced him to the Rotary Club of Altona, where he pitched for, received, and reported on funding for the establishment of two senior Rep teams.
The President of Altona at the time, Lois Buckingham, invited Peter to join the club. With his background and familiarity with the members, he accepted the offer. In May 2003, Peter was formally inducted and has remained a member of Altona, having served as President four times and held nearly every other role.
Peter also took on the position of Assistant Governor four times and has served on various District Committees. He is notably recognized as the stage manager, known as the 'man in black', for successive District Conferences.
With experience in administration, project management, and customer service, Peter now combines these skills as part of the management team at the historic Queen Victoria Market, where he has been since 2013.
