Agroup of happysnappers from<br />
Hampstead School are learningand<br />
developing an eye for agood photo.<br />
The group of 18 have been learning<br />
about photography and have taken<br />
hundreds of photossince the<br />
beginning of term.<br />
Theycome together as an interest<br />
group after school and are collating<br />
photosfor aphotography competition<br />
running throughthe <strong>Ashburton</strong> A&P<br />
Show. Photos will be sorted and<br />
discussed and the best of the best<br />
selected for entry by early October.<br />
The youngphotographers are<br />
mentored by teachers Lois Eaton and<br />
Hannah Duffell.<br />
Mrs Eaton has been akeen<br />
photographer for the pastfive years<br />
and attended classes at the Methven<br />
Summer School. She said most of the<br />
students used school cameras and<br />
took between 50 and 120 photos at<br />
each weekly session.<br />
The school usually purchased two<br />
new cameras ayear and had built up<br />
good stocks.<br />
Nothing was offlimits in termsof<br />
the subjects being snapped by the<br />
childrenand they were encouraged<br />
to learn as they go.<br />
Students who had been involved<br />
last year had acquired some useful<br />
skills, not least the realisation that<br />
they neededtohold the camera<br />
steady to get agood photo.<br />
Conditionsfor agroup trip to<br />
<strong>Ashburton</strong> Domain on Monday were<br />
dull and overcast, and perfect for<br />
capturing the area’s natural beauty.<br />
The young photographers started<br />
their photographicjourney by taking<br />
photos at school. They have since<br />
visited afarm and haveatrip to<br />
Orana Park planned next month.<br />

conservation win.<br />
“It’s awesome to see kea back<br />

hard to provide asafe and habitable<br />
environmentfor our native birds to<br />
