Computers at Waiwhare.
By Room’s 1 & 2 children.
Staff Reporters, Waiwhare.
The computers at Waiwhare have really turned the pupils on, pressing buttons, typing, reading screens, searching and most of all thinking.
While our parents raised money crutching sheep, Mrs Ward was busy making recipe books, to give our children a wider education. We have put a computer into each classroom, to give each class more experience using computers. By the time we reach Form 2 we will be whizz kids with computers.
Computers are used all the school week. On the wall we have a chart to tell us our computer time.
We write our stories on the computer so we can print them. We can save them on our discs too. Great fun is had by the children with the educational games (interactive fiction.)
We appreciate the computers and the opportunities they give us.

RUNNING THE RIVERS
By Nathan Croad.
Staff Reporter, Waiwhare.
Rayner Croad is a good jet boat driver but once he went on to a branch beside the bank. The jet unit is a Leyland P76. He has driven up one canal, one river and has been out to sea a few times. There is a lot of skill in jet boating up rivers. When jet boating up rivers you have to be looking for the deepest water and the right channel to take the boat into. The rivers have to be quite full before a jet boat can get up the rivers.

Helping People
By Rebecca Ward.
Staff Reporter, Waiwhare.
Yesterday we met Helen Ward from the Psychiatric unit at Hastings Memorial Hospital and how she got into the work. She said that what she had to do was give the patients their medicine, talk and reassure them and she looks after people with mental problems. She said she got into it because she had wanted to help people get better and it seemed like a good job. She works 2 days a week and sometimes 4 days a week.

EDITORIAL

Of all the letters received by the editors it was nice to receive this positive letter.
Mr Editor,
I would like to thank Christine Goulding most sincerly [sincerely] for taking Pony Club, driving the buses and for being a nice person.
We hope you appreciated these words of thanks
Yours faithfully,
Thankful.

Mr Editor,
Mrs Barnett and Mrs Goulding have a complaint about a certain Headmaster – sorry principal – who has not presented them with their well earned and deserved box of chocolates.
Chocolate Craving Bus Drivers.

Sir,
In relation to the letter concerning the well earned box of chocolates.
I would like to point out that the chocolates were purchased and were being prepared for presentation at the major school function. But then the bus arrived late one afternoon to pick up the kids, and while waiting, I snuck a chocolate.
Then I was given some cheek, so I had to have another.
The slowness of the buses departing the school because of inter-driver natter sessions, caused a number of goodies to be consumed. Before I knew it, the whole of the top tray had disappeared. By this time I was in such a state that I ate the whole bottom tray before I felt better.
I was actually going to present these dear ladies with the empty box, but I felt sorry for them and decided to use it to store my bus complaint letters instead.
Yours Faithfully,
A very worried (but full) Principal,

In reply to The Worried & Full Head-person,
Due to the equity policy the editors object to being referred to as ‘Sir.’

Mr. Editor,
I have a complaint about Fathers coming home late, because they have been up at the club. I have heard about the teacher coming home late and falling asleep in class, ect [etc].
We wait for the father to come home with the pies for tea, then we look at the clock. Oh its only seven o’clock we say. Then when we look again and its nine o’clock.
Waiting. Waiting. Waiting.
Your’s Faithfully,
Mad
V M Barnett.

To The Editor,
I would like to complain about the unruly behaviour of locals. I was having a meal with my family, entertaining guests, when two gatecrashers walked in.
These gatecrashers were locals by the name of Martin Jones and Andrew Ward. The formal meal was then turned into a party, with John Weir and Chris Ward arriving later.
I went to bed at eleven, but the music that they had on kept me awake till about three O’clock in the morning.
Yours Sincerely,
Tired
Michael Ward

Orchard owner, Kirsty Hill has an orchard down River Road.
The farm and orchard is called Waiwhenua. Mr Lindsay Smith (Kirsty’s father) started the orchard in the 70’s and it was only 2 acres now the orchard is 37 acres.

Kirsty took over the orchard in 1984. Kirsty grew to like horticulture and that is how she finally got to own the orchard. In the orchard there are apricots, Fuji apples, red chief apples, royal gala apples and braeburn apples, kiwifruit and shinseki, housui and kousui nashi pears. They chose these fruits because they have good markets overseas and they are nice to eat. Big apples go to America, nashi pears, apples and kiwifruit go to Europe. Small nashi and apples go to Asia.

SCHOOL IN SAM’S DAD’S DAY.
WHAT SCHOOL DID YOU GO TO DAD?
To Hastings Boy’s High.
WHEN DID YOU START?
In 1970, way back two decades ago Sam.
WHERE IS SCHOOL DAD?
It is on the southern outskirts of Hastings in a semi-rural location. It had lots of lovely big playing fields which my buddies and I used to kick a ball about on and play bullrush.
WHO WENT THERE?
Most of the boys came from Hastings and some came from Havelock North as there was no High School in the village then.
We biked each day there and back, a ride of about four miles per day.
WHY DID YOU GO THERE DAD?
To learn lots of things and play sport. I think the teachers thought I played too much sport but I did really enjoyed that aspect of school. I found High School a fun place to be at.
HOW DID YOU GET ON THERE?
I enjoyed my time at High School. I still have close friendships with lots of the blokes I was there with. Remember Dave who came up the other day? We were in the same class from Form three to Form seven. You’ll enjoy it too Sam, I’m sure of that.

To get to School he had to walk to Redmans then the bus would pick him and his one brother and two sisters Ross, Jill, and Kay Lawrence up but sometimes the bus would come to the gate if they were early, but that was not often. One year after living there his parents built a new house, they also built a shearers quarters and a woolshed. After that Graham went to Napier Boys high school. After high school Graham went and worked on his father’s farm and went around the district cutting scrub in 1963. One year after Graham and his sisters, brother and parents pulled the Army huts down.
