HOME: Kyleigh Lyth (centre) meets the student boarders.<br />
Director of boarding hopes<br />
to inspire Rangi students<br />
RANGI RURU Girls’ School’s<br />
new director of boarding was so<br />
inspired by her time as a boarder,<br />
she made it her career.<br />
Kyleigh Lyth used to board at<br />
Southland Girls’ High School.<br />
As director at Rangi Ruru,<br />
Mrs Lyth, her husband and their<br />
three teenage children<br />
also live on the school<br />
grounds.<br />
Mrs Lyth said what she<br />
remembers most about boarding<br />
school was the kindness and<br />
learning the life skills that made<br />
her who she is today.<br />
“When these girls have<br />
long left school, things like<br />
who they are, their sense of<br />
identity, how they deal with<br />
relationships – it’s here they<br />
learn and practice those really<br />
important parts of growing up,”<br />
she said.<br />
Fairleigh Kindergarten pupils Millie Waddel and Oscar Apperley had a visit from St John<br />
officer Lu Scarf. She held an informative chat with the children and walked them through<br />
how the ambulance service works. •More schools, page 10<br />
Pupils from Japan’s Yuri Gakuin Elementary School visited<br />
Fendalton Open Air School recently. The two schools<br />
have developed a friendship over the past few years and<br />
the Japanese pupils immersed themselves in the Kiwi<br />
experience. They were formally welcomed with a school<br />
mihi whakatau and went on to experience much of what<br />
Christchurch has to offer. The 12 girls and three teachers<br />
spent time in the classroom and were shown around by<br />
Fendalton pupils.<br />
