Spectacular night under<br />
the stars raises $10,000<br />
OPENING: Pupils from Harewood School were excited to<br />
be involved in the opening of the Russley Rd underpass last<br />
week. Aidan Brannan (below left), of McConnell Dowell and<br />
Downer, and school leaders Jacob Frost and Brianna Gauci,<br />
both aged 10, buried a time capsule with New Zealand<br />
Transport Agency southern region director Jim Harland.<br />
The time capsule included stories the pupils had written.<br />
The new underpass allows cyclists and walkers to safely<br />
get across the road. The New Zealand Transport Agency<br />
is undertaking $112 million worth of upgrades to the road<br />
which is expected to be completed in <strong>20</strong>18.<br />

AN EXCITING night out with<br />
the stars was held at Fendalton<br />
Open Air School with about<br />
1<strong>20</strong>0 people showing up to the<br />
event.<br />
The Spectacular Space and<br />
Science Night was held last<br />
Friday to raise money so the<br />
school can further advance its<br />
outdoor spaces.<br />
Robots, the Martin Jetpack,<br />
a planetarium and hand-made<br />
rockets were just some of the fun<br />
activities featured at the event.<br />
Fendalton School parent<br />
teachers association member<br />
Sarah Bourke said about $10,000<br />
was raised from the evening.<br />
“It was brilliant. There was the<br />
most amazing community buzz<br />
around the place,” she said.<br />
Mrs Bourke said the event<br />
brought a diverse range of<br />
people together with the Chinese<br />
community making dumplings<br />
and Japanese making sushi.<br />
While it has not been decided<br />
what type of spaces the money<br />
will go towards, the school is<br />
looking at options including<br />
gardens, outdoor furniture,<br />
landscaping and painting<br />
murals.<br />
