Queenstown Rotary president Chris Campbell tips hundreds of foreign coins into local Lion Simon Hayes’ collection tin. The coins come from Rotary’s wishing well at Queenstown Airport, together with donations from visiting Rotarians. “There are all sorts of foreign currencies,” Hayes says.

As Heads Up For Kids national chairman, he was in Wellington last week fine-tuning the sorting process.
