Tales from the Night School

The Team from Fraser ACE Adult Community Education

Spooky sounds are to be expected when your job involves a lot of wandering about the dark.

When the school empties out, silence can be almost deafening. Every squeak and creak are magnified a hundredfold. For the night staff who believes in ghosts, there needs to be reigning in of the imagination!

In the dark, Minties keep them company, coupled with jangling of the keys to chase ghosts away (whether real or imagined). No spook wants to stick around and listen to the obnoxious chewing echoing down the hallways, through the classrooms. That would drive any living soul insane!

What do you think of this 11-year-old's chosen cause?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

A Whangamatā 11-year-old has placed his award-winning mullet up for auction to raise money for Starship Hospital.

Kahū Hall, who named himself ‘Taco’ when he was three years old, is selling his mullet after growing it for three years. Taco said he was motivated to raise the money after his friend Evie Taylor stayed at Starship Hospital for a heart operation.
