Dear Mr Kokshoorn,
On behalf of Auckland Point School in Nelson, we would like to pass on our love and sympathies to the people of the West Coast.
This morning we had a special ceremony for the Pike River miners and their families. We all lit a candle in remembrance of the miners.
Most of our kids donated some money for the Pike River disaster. We have been following the news each day and we know that all the people involved in the rescue did the best job they could. You and Mr Whittall have handled the situation with great dignity. We would like to express our condolences and donate this money to help assist in some way.
Some of the children at our school have been to the West Coast and we like the scenery and the beaches. Our teacher is from the West Coast and she told us that the people on the Coast are incredibly special.
We hope that you will be able to put the 29 men to rest and recover their bodies.
We wish the people of the West Coast and the miners families all the best and our thoughts are with you all at this difficult time.
Best Wishes
Taylor, Solmaz, Buda & Rion
