At 12.51pm the College fell silent as students and staff, along with much of the country, took a moment to remember those effected by the earthquake in Christchurch five years ago today. The College doors were opened to students and their families in the days, weeks and months that followed the quake and they will always have a special place in our College Family. On this, the anniversary, we take the opportunity to once again share the inspirational words of hope written by Alice McAtamney at that time.
Space
Floating
Floating in a dark endless place
No up, no down
No green grass, no blue sky
So many unknown places you can end up in
But there is the stars,
Little glimmers of hope
Scaring away indecision
And replacing it with order
It might not be so bad that space is endless
It means there can be endless possibilities
Infinite chances to make things right.
