Hutt Valley students demand action from MPs on leaky buildings

From Checkpoint, 5:48 pm on 6 May 2021

About 100 Hutt Valley High School students turned the front lawn of Parliament into a make-shift study space today to protest the state of their school buildings.

Dangerous levels of toxic mould found in classrooms last term have forced the closure of 16 teaching spaces and other facilities and forced about 500 students to work from home half the week.

Ruth Hill went along to the protest.
