Huhana Lyndon: Ngatiwai Trust Board Chief Executive says local hāpu offering sympathy and solace to Whangārei Boys High School after student death

  • Summary

  • Local hāpu have been offering support after the death of a Whangārei High School student yesterday.

    Ngātiwai members were at the Abbey Caves last night where the boy died, and today visited the school.

    A rāhui's now been placed on the caves.

    The school opened today with a security presence, but other than issuing a statement, the principal isn't answering questions.

    Ngātiwai Trust Board Chief Executive Huhana Lyndon says it's a very sad time.

    "It's our deep sympathies and regret is to what's occurred, but also the importance of wrapping that korowai of aroha around the whanau at this time, and also the school community and the boys."
