Why would a Glamorgan Primary School student give up her Saturday morning to help paint another North Shore primary school?

According to 10-year-old Sophie, who joined another 200 volunteers to paint Windy Ridge Primary School on Saturday (21 May), she took part because "it's fun to paint" and she "enjoys helping others."

Sophie and her fellow volunteers took advantage of sunny weather to paint a classroom block and spruce up the school grounds at the Glenfield School.

"This project was a great plus for our community," Windy Ridge Primary School principal Brenda McPherson said."

AUCKLAND, New Zealand - "When I was a young boy, I loved to watch a television show called The Lone Ranger," writes Elder F. Michael Watson of the Pacific Area Presidency, in children's magazine, The Friend.

Elder Watson continues: "It was about a cowboy hero and his friends. The Lone Ranger always stood for right choices. At times, there would be individuals who did not want to choose the right. They would cause problems for others. When the Lone Ranger tried to help, he often would be chased by those who wanted to hurt him. In his escape, the Lone Ranger would get on his horse, Silver, and try to outrun them. Sometimes he would ride under a low-hanging branch of a tree and reach up and take hold of the limb. Silver would continue on as the Lone Ranger pulled himself up into the tree to hide."
