Mayor Cadogan addresses the school during the sod turning ceremony at the Maniototo Area School in Ranfurly. Principal Joe Ferdinands and board member Craig Paterson look on. There is much excitement in the local community as contractor Breen Construction commences work on site.
The project comprises a long overdue complete rebuild of the school.
Construction will be carried out in stages over the next two years to allow the school to continue to operate safely throughout. The first stage of the work is the new Technology Block.
