Adventure camp steps up for 10-year-old
When Oxy Chisnall, 10, couldn't go on his school camp, Totara Springs Christian Centre offered him a day out to remember.
Oxy - who has autism, ADHD and developmental delay - was "like a whole different person" afterwards, his mother, Aroha Chisnall, said.
He'd been excluded from his school camp because he'd enrolled after planning for it, and the school said it was "unable to safely provide this opportunity".
