The RC Silves and IRC Almancil share an interest in education of the young of today. Both clubs try to inspire students to aim high and to provide them with experiences to enhance their education. So at their joint meeting on the 24 November at the Holiday Inn in Armação de Pêra, they came to enjoy a presentation from the students of Agrupomento de Silves Sul who took part in the school exchange supported by RC Silves.

In the summer, six pupils and two teachers from Silves Sul were hosted by Wildern School pupils and teachers in Southampton . They visit the school and experience a little bit of British life. The Rotarians were keen to hear how their trip went and enthralled by their accounts.

After the presentation the students joined Rotarians for dinner and shared their knowledge and experience.
