That's just what happened when a group of our students were on the train one morning. Mayor Len Brown happened tobe catching the same train to work, and got talking with the students about the building changes that were underway at ManurewaHigh. The students invited him to visit the school to see the newly redeveloped buildings for himself.
Yesterday Len Brown followed up his chat with the students with a school visit. He was shown around the revamped Akorangablock and the new Discovery Learning Centre where he chatted with students.
Perhaps the most memorable part of the mayor's visit was when he popped into the year 12 prize giving practice where thestudents sang to him - and he replied in song.
