Still no answers on fate of flood-stricken Tairāwhiti school

From Morning Report, 8:45 am on 28 April 2022

A flood-stricken school in Tairāwhiti has still received no word about the fate of their buildings.

Hatea-a-Rangi School is still hobbled after two severe floods in the region within nine months.

The government is seeking feedback on a draft plan on how the country will adapt to the effects of climate change, and who'll pay for the damage.

The school's Board of Trustees chair Lillian Te Hau-Ward spoke to Corin Dann.
