In the turning of the calendar,
the final quarter’s here.
A time to lift our voices high,
to finish strong this year.
For growth is built in moments
– small steps that shape our way
and progress is the promise
that we honour day by day.
As new committees gather,
with fresh vision in their hands.
They shape the next horizon,
where our district proudly stands.
A passing of the torch begins
– a future yet untold,
where leadership is nurtured
and new talents will unfold.
