Remuera Lions Citizenship Awards

Since its Charter in 1963, the Remuera Lions Club has been proud to make Junior Citizenship Awards to students nominated by the 17 local primary & intermediate schools who best exemplify the Junior Citizenship Code below. These students are often the students who quietly go about their lives and studies (not necessarily the brightest or the best at sports) but who provide a great example to others of how to be a model citizen and helpful to others above self. 

Every school has a large copy of the Junior Citizenship Code displayed prominently in their school.

All students receive a copy of the Junior Citizenship Code at the Awards Ceremony in recognition of their attitude and community awareness.

Remuera Lions hosts the evening and provides an inspirational guest speaker who is relevant to the students (Olympian, motivator, TV personality, young business person etc). 

The 2024 Awards presentation will take place at Dilworth Junior School, 27 Omahu Road, Remuera, on Wednesday 6th November 2024, commencing at 6.30pm.
