• Kaj Pedersen and Emma Lendrum show off their haul.

THE weekend’s olive harvest went well for the kids from North Perth primary school who were out picking fruit to raise money for their P&C.

There were fewer olives this year after a hot, dry summer, but the 730kg of juicy olives yielded even more oil, with 126 litres pressed at York olive oil co, compared to last year’s 104.

Last year $7000 was raised selling the oil dubbed “Harvest 6006”, and the multi-variety brew picked up a silver medal at the Royal Show.
