 <description>&lt;p&gt;A healthy and tasty new way for schools to raise funds&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Innovative school fund-raising initiative launched by
Natures Foods&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Schools and parents struggling to find a healthy alternative for fund-raising have just been offered a lifeline with two entrepreneurial Kiwi mums developing grazers, snack packs of delicious sun dried fruit ideal for school fund-raising.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The new grazers products contain the highest quality sun dried fruit, selected for their appealing taste profile, and carry the Heart Foundation Tick.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

 <description>&lt;p&gt;PM acknowledges contribution of science hub&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Prime Minister Helen Clark opened the new Manawatu Microscopy and Imaging Centre on the Palmerston North campus recently, citing the state-of-the-art centre as an example of industry and science coming together to boost knowledge and the economy.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The centre is a project very much in line with the government&amp;rsquo;s goals of driving NZ forward using research science and technology, Ms Clark said.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
