The installation of laminated veneer lumber (LVL) marks a significant milestone at the recently named Otago Polytechnic Trades Training Centre, He Toki Kai Te Rika.

Ngā iti Kahurangi is the te reo name for the Ministry's remote schools programme. The name directly translates to “small and highly-valued treasures”. This translation perfectly suits the children at Lake Brunner School that left thank you notes for the contractors working at their school. Messages included: 'dear amazing workers, thank you for making our school better, I really like it'. 'thank you for everything that you did' 'thank you for bringing acoustic panels and new lights, and new security plugs. They were so cool and so safe'.
