Arrowtown School pupils wore Canterbury colours in a mufti day and raised $400. 'Red and black' day at Queenstown Primary School raised $1500 and two vanloads of donated bottled water. St Francis Xavier School in Mornington, Dunedin, show the magnitude of their support. Pauline Moffat, of Dunedin, collector for Rotary's earthquake relief fund.

The singing of 'God Defend New Zealan' at Dunedin's 'Last Night of the Proms' concert was a poignant moment for some. Mike Dorking, of Dunedin, present in Christchurch at the time of the earthquake, bows his head.
