Two Minutes of Silence for Christchurch


At 12:51 today, exactly a week from the 6.3 Christchurch earthquake, our students observed two minutes of silence to pay tribute to the victims of the disaster.

After students ate their lunch there was a bell to gather in class lines on the field. Our entire school, along with the rest of New Zealand, remained still and silent for two minutes. Then a bell rang and everyone continued with what they were doing prior to 12:51.
