Malvina Manhire, who now lives in Nelson, attended Hobsonville School from 1945 to 1954.
Malvina has nothing but fond memories of her time at our school and this is one of those memories. It certainly shows how times have changed!
"My very vivid memories are of Mr E. Gregory the headmaster sitting in his car while being pushed up the middle of Hobby's gravel road by us laughing pupils, until suddenly the car would burst into life amidst a flurry of gravel and dust. We would wave a fond farewell".
Please make time to visit the library on our Open Day, Saturday 5 April, to enjoy many other interesting facts and stories that have been shared with us.
