Dangerous levels of toxic mould found in classrooms last term have forced the closure of 16 teaching spaces and other facilities and forced about 500 students to study from home half the week.
Unwilling to miss further school time, students brought along folding chairs, picnic rugs and even a couple of tables, unpacking textbooks, tablets and art projects - and requested the Parliamentary wifi password, which was written on a whiteboard.

Hutt High toxic mould a system of chronic underfunding of education: meeting told


ROBERT KITCHIN/STUFF
Hutt Valley High School students protest the closure of some of their classrooms due to toxic mould and damp by setting up a classroom on the Parliament front lawn.
Students shut out of their classrooms because of toxic mould say the problem is a symptom of chronic underfunding for the upkeep of public schools.
About 350 Year 12 and 13 pupils at Hutt Valley High School have had to do half their weekly learning at home since Monday after unsafe levels of black mould was discovered in 13 learnings spaces and a dance studio earlier this year.
At a meeting held in the school hall on Thursday night to update the community on how the school and the Ministry of Education planned to respond to the situation, deputy head student Lucy Rodger​ said while she was happy to see progress, the commitment by the ministry to demolish and rebuild C block was “horrendously and frustratingly overdue”.
