It's that time of year when the joys in your life shine like Robert Patterson and Kristen Stewart in Twilight.

It's school ball season, but students can struggle to afford the clothes and tickets.

However, at Ōtūmoetai College in Tauranga they have a great scheme.

They've got their own second hand ball shop and judging by the photos I've seen it's well stocked.

It's run by two year 13 students, one of those being Charlotte Willacy. She speaks to Jesse.
