Abbotsford School pupil Jacob Gilbert (11, in front) and his school mates (back, from left) Issac Pratley (11), Baidin Conijn (12), Natasha Remshaw (12), Holi Kennedy (12) and Nikia Le Masurier (12) show off the new equipment the school received yesterday thanks to an ex-pupil.

Jack Oaten, who is now at King's High School, was the face of a video entered in the ANZ Cricket Grant Scheme. Abbotsford School physical education teacher Regan Anderson said Jack was keen to get others involved in the sport he loves.

''It was amazing, really. He was even organising half the staff,'' Anderson said.

The grant of $1500 of cricket gear included bats, balls, pads, gloves, helmets and cricket bags.
