Student Rooms

Just to keep everyone informed and how you are all helping with rescue efforts here in Christchurch:

I mentioned earlier that we are hosting 56 Police Officers from Australia we have placed these officers in the Mabel Hendrie and Cranmer Buildings. Those few students who were not able to put their possessions in their locked wardrobe we have done this for you. The cleaners have also collected your dirty or wet washing and will wash it for you and keep it safe. The room occupant is given a key to your room only and never a wardrobe key.

Help is coming from all corners of the world and you will be delighted to know that 56 Australian Police Officers will be staying at the hall and helping with the CBD Rescue efforts.

Looking forward to seeing you all soon.
