Ural MexiCan kidS BENEFIT FROM LIBRARY<br />

“GIVE a man a fish and you will feed him for<br />

one day, teach him how to fish and he will be<br />

able to feed himself for life”. This proverb reflects<br />

the importance of education and <strong>Scomi</strong> Oiltools<br />

Mexico took this to heart when they involved<br />

themselves in a project with UNICOLTAB (a non-<br />

Australians<br />

treat kids to<br />

Circus Quirkus<br />

profit association) to rehabilitate a rural library<br />

located in Tabasco, Mexico.<br />

For this effort, <strong>Scomi</strong> provided the financial<br />

means to renovate the entire library as well<br />

as donated computers for library use.<br />

With the slogan “Donate a book, promote<br />

reading and take a library in your heart”,<br />

<strong>Scomi</strong> and UNICOLTAB encouraged people<br />

to donate books for the library. Donation<br />

containers were strategically placed at<br />

shopping centres, hotels, offices, universities<br />

and schools and we are happy to say that by<br />

the end of the library campaign over 1,000<br />

books were collected.<br />

Overall the project was a success and<br />

will certainly benefit the children in the<br />

community by providing them with a source<br />

of knowledge.<br />

IN support of the Police and Community Youth Center in Ballajura,<br />

a residential suburb adjacent to our facility in Perth, <strong>Scomi</strong> Oiltools<br />

Australia made a donation towards the centre’s activities for<br />

disadvantaged children.<br />

As a treat, these special-needs kids were treated to Circus Quirkus, a<br />

non-animal circus style show that inspires fun and excitement.<br />

Full of energy and quirky acts, the circus truly uplifted the spirits<br />

of the kids if their laughter and delighted reaction was anything to<br />

go by. Kudos to all the performers in Circus Quirkus for making the<br />

kids so happy.<br />

From its inaugural 2002 performance in Perth, Western Australia,<br />

Circus Quirkus has become one of Perth’s most popular productions.<br />
