Ten-year-old Xavier Lynch, from Havelock North, came back with a business and fundraising idea.
In 2017, Lynch and his family visited Fiji where they stayed at the Happy Chicken Project permaculture farm.
"I learned that they help the communities in the Fijian Islands to sustain an alternative food source while the reefs are closed to repopulate the fish."
