Summary: A.i.d.s. Move Support (Press, 8 August 1986)

The Rudolf Steiner School in Hastings has garnered a largely positive response to its decision to admit four-year-old Eve Van Grafhorst, an A.I.D.S. carrier, to its kindergarten. According to Mr Frank Long, the chairman of the school’s board, letters of support have been pouring in from various locations, including Christchurch, along with a donation. While some parents have previously threatened to withdraw their children from the school in light of the decision, Mr Long stated that the school would only be aware of their final decisions by the third term. He expressed satisfaction with the current reaction, indicating that things are proceeding well for the school thus far. The admission has attracted international media attention, with numerous inquiries from news outlets in Australia and the United States, indicating the broader significance of the story.
