This particular t-shirt belonged to Joanne Ruscoe's son Ben Ruscoe who wore it during filming by TVNZ News. The Citizens' Day Nursery was closed down in December 1984, but about half of the parents stayed, together with the staff. With the help of the Wellnigton community and the government, they moved into a house in Pipitea Street and set up the City Kids Co-operative Childcare Centre. The yellow t-shirt was prepared at this time. For one year the centre operated at the Pipitea Street house. However at the end of 1985 the government who owned the house required it for other purposes, and the Centre bought their own house at 21 Tinakori Road, Thorndon. In 2006, the Centre was still operating in this house.
