? Ruahina Edwards, who is ten years old and lives in Wanganui, was most excited to learn recently that she had won a trip to Noumea for two, with £50 spending money thrown in. Ruahina won the trip in a New Zealand-wide essay competition held in conjunction with the show ‘South Sea Island Festival 1963’, which visited many districts last year. The subject of the essay was ‘Why I want to go to Noumea’. There were 80 entries, many of them written by adults. Ruahina explained in her essay that she would like the trip so that she could give her mother a holiday (her mother, Mrs H. R. Edwards, is a teacher at Durie Hill School). She is thrilled that now she will be able to do so. They hope to go in the May school holidays; it will be the first time that either of them has been overseas.
