Pupils stand by as a Glacier Southern Lakes Helicopter prepares to unleash sweets on the grounds of Wakatipu High School in Frankton yesterday. After the lolly scramble, pupil Jordan Courtney (13) shows off his haul of sweets. The special delivery, donated by the Remarkables Sweet Shop, was part of the school's Pride Week, held to coincide with Queenstown's Winter Pride festival. Head girl Bianca Crichton said they wanted to celebrate Winter Pride while providing events targeted towards high school pupils. Principal Steve Hall said the week was ''all about people feeling safe and feeling included, so the school's right behind this''.
