WELCOMING NEWCOMERS TO ROME





 A large and friendly crowd filled the lovely grounds of St George's British International School yesterday to welcome new students and their families and as always, Welcome Neighbor Rome was invited to share the PSG table and give a brief presentation of who we are and what we have been doing as a volunteer service for the last 43 years.
Welcome Neighbor has seen all nationalities, backgrounds and religious beliefs and the most long lasting and precious friendships have come out of our meetings.
This year we'll have our first pot luck lunch in Olgiata located in Northern Rome just about 6 km from St George's and all expats with knowledge of English or even Italians returning to Italy who have lived abroad are most welcome.
Please let us know if you wish to attend our first lunch and if you could bring something of your choice to share.  You may confirm by sending an e-mail to paula.mtreu@vivivejo.org
It's a great way not only to make new friends but also to find out what to do in Rome, to get involved in volunteer work if you wish, to find out about other clubs and activities and so on.
