Glentunnel School



So, 26 kids from Glentunnel School in Canterbury came to visit - in the rain, but they said that the weather was worse where they came from. I didn't take any pics, because i'm an idiot.

Their teacher said he used to teach at Totara Flat, West Coast, and knew Ena Griffin there well. Ena grew up in Waiuta (nee. Beckwith) and she was my wife's aunty. New Zealand really is a village!

From here, the kids were going on to stay the night in Reefton, and then going to Waiuta the following day. Hope the weather was kind to them. Waiuta is a magic place but it's not fun in the rain up in the hills.

cheers

Thanks for the great visit around 'Little village'. We did have a great few days in Waiuta - one of my favourite places to go on the Coast. The Glentunnel kids had a camp they'll never forget! Cheers
