Baby-wins Plunket seat restraint
To mark its eightieth anniversary yesterday, the Royal New Zealand Plunket Society presented a rental-free baby car seat restraint to Ms Corina Niven, of Lyttelton, and her daughter, Sonja Carla. A New Zealand councillor with the Plunket society, Mrs Annette Harris, makes the presentation. A rental seat is used until the baby outgrows it, at the age of about six to nine months. Sonja received the seat because she was born on Plunket’s anniversary in one of the four Christchurch hospitals participating in the Plunket competition.
She was born at Christchurch Women’s Hospital at 2.43 a.m., weighing 3020 g (61b lloz). The other hospitals in the competition were Burwood, Lincoln Maternity, and St George’s. The latter also had a birth, therefore entitling mother and baby to a seat restraint
