FRIDAY, 26TH JUNE: JUST AS WE WENT TO PRESS WITH THIS ISSUE of Ponsonby News, 121 pupils – all year 4-6 children from Ponsonby’s Richmond Road School took part in a Guinness World Record Challenge for tunnel ball.  This was planned to coincide with a fundraising effort for this year’s ‘Kids Can Stand Tall’ Charitable Trust dedicated to supporting Kiwi Kids who are less fortunate than them.  It was planned for the children to play tunnel ball for at least five hours but as Deputy Principal Heather Rewiri told Ponsonby News in the early afternoon, “sadly, the heavy rain at midday has rained us off on this occasion.”
