Joy and Bev went to see to see pupils from Kahurangi School playing floorball after school at the ASB Stadium this week. They met with the Principal and a reporter to acknowledge our contribution towards pupils participating in a range of sports. Principal Kyran was extremely grateful.The $3,000 (50% RCPN and 50% District grant) is having a positive impact on the children. They have 90 children playing now, with 60 of those children able to play this spring/summer season solely because of our contribution. The Bev, Joy and the Floorball team featured in the Cook Strait News this week.
