Last year’s Octacan effort caned

Taieri College students stand around a New Zealand made out of cans the school collected for the annual Octacan appeal.

Teacher Gerry Fuss said the school collected 3200 cans, smashing last year’s effort of 2800.

Just over 500 cans would go to the Mosgiel foodbank, and the remainder would go to Presbyterian Support Otago, he said.
