 takes out round 3!

 

Another fantastic Ka Pai SOUP community event - with 9 yr old Tess and 11 yr old Graycie  taking out the win and $1270  towards developing their idea of a creative  space for kids.  Step one will be hosting a creative festival like day for kids to get inspired and have fun  - with the aim of having a permanent space for kids to get their "art" on!  

(NBThis pot was generously topped up to $1350 by two further generous donations post event!)

It was a tight contest across all pitches, with the community keen to see all projects be given support on the night.

Amanda Taylor’s House of Science aims to ‘raise Ashley Bloomfields’ by making science available, and exciting, to Carterton primary school children.

Jonáš Koukl and Catherine Cooper proposed Timeless Skills Camps to connect people in order to make them stronger, happier and healthier.

Helen Dew spoke about a local green currency – ‘the ultimate loyalty tool’.

Rob Stockley pitched an installation in a public place that can inform people about local history with story boards, maps and QR codes.
