but very expert, traffic control being
undertaken on the way! A hymn and
readings took place in the lovely reflected
light of the stained glass at the Catholic
Church and then the walkers were on
their way again, down the hill to the
spectacular beach setting.
The short ceremony on the beach
fitted the occasion superbly. Afterwards
the cross was taken up again and with
continued warmth and conviviality
being shared by participants, the group
A very enjoyable time was had by all
those who participated in this annual
event in Hampden on Good Friday. The
journey began at St Stephen’s Anglican
Church with a moving piece from the
Visual Bible setting the scene. The sun
smiled on the first photos taken outside
the church and generously remained
throughout the event. The group then
proceeded to the Catholic Church, Our
Lady Star of the Sea, with a number of
photo opportunities and some unofficial,

made its way to the Presbyterian Church.

Rousing singing and thoughtful reading
with yet more sunshine coming through
the windows and shining on the mellow
wood inside the beautiful old stone
church concluded the formal part of the
event. A scrumptious finger food lunch in
the hall sealed off a special experience.

Hampden Hall Public Toilets Survey Result

The Hall Committee conducted a public survey on the toilets at the hall.
The survey began on April 1. Here's the result as of April 16.
1. Close toilets at Hall …… Yes… 21 No… 160
2. Rebuild, upgrade and separate from Hall Yes… 153 No… 25
3. Hampden residents ………………… 27
4. Travellers ………………………… 119
5. Transport drivers …………………33
6. Comments on toilets' presentation at time of use :
Critical …………17
Complimentary… 7
7. Need to have toilets on main route through Hampden...27
8. Number participating in survey … 180 (discarding indeterminants)
Interpretation of additional comments by participants:
Hand towels or air dryers requested.
Why not 'upgrade' to composting toilets, if you must rebuild.
Vote for “closure” appeared to mean the existing toilets should close, but be “rebuilt”.
Beach toilet should be upgraded, but not at the expense of the Hall toilet.
Toilet stop influenced by buying meal, or vice versa.
If the toilet is closed, people will not stop in Hampden.
Good stopping/parking place for trucks.
Toilets let locality down.
Hall location convenient.
If Hall toilets are closed, there will be fouling of roadsides.
(n.b. Most who ticked “no upgrade” were Hampden residents.)

This survey was initiated and conducted by Howard Selwood.

The Hamraki Rag conducted an online poll at the same time. 12 votes were cast, 5
said yes and 7 no to the first question. To the second question, 7 said yes, 3 no. Out
of 12, 9 were locals. Thanks for voting online.

Hampden Remembers Those Slain
by Jennifer Black

Hampden Hall, with its Roll of Honour prominently displayed on the wall, was
the scene of the annual Anzac Day service for the area stretching from Moeraki
through to Herbert. The formalities began with a wreath laying on the draped NZ
flag at the front and the ceremony which followed provided all who attended with a
memorable experience. The old favourite hymns, a well chosen prayer and reading,
and appropriate pieces of music for this special day all worked to create the right
atmosphere. A very interesting address by Dr Paul Baker, the Principal of Waitaki
Boys’ High School, gave an insight, by way of letters written at the time, into the unreal
view people back home had of what was happening in the Gallipoli Peninsula in the
early stages. However the letters soon began to reflect the reality of the campaign
and it was this historical perspective gleaned from accounts written at the time that
Dr Baker’s speech so aptly described.
In true country style, a cup of tea and delicious sandwiches kindly provided by
the Lions were enjoyed by everyone in the supper room following the service. A
small group took the wreaths down to the War Memorial and laid them there with
due ceremony. For those people who visited the Memorial that day and since, the
beautiful poppies individually crafted by the local school children arranged around
the Memorial have been a very special sight. They are part of the enduring memory
of Anzac Day 2010 in Hampden.
