SINGAPORE: It is less than a week to the finale of the "We Are One" project, and organisers are rallying help from some very able students.

Pre-schoolers from the Modern Montessori International School are adding the final touches to their latest project - the new Courts Megastore - in Lego bricks, no less.

Mr Terry O'Connor, regional CEO of Courts, said: "We had a great time this afternoon. We were able to bring in the children of our staff and some of the children of our customers to build a Courts Megastore."

In the end, the pre-schoolers built a S$50,000 Lego structure.

We Are One is a corporate social responsibility project involving CapitaLand, Lego Singapore and MediaCorp.

It aims to raise S$1 million for charity.
