Recovering after crash: Berkley Normal Middle School girl "doing well"
If you remember hearing about the 12-year-old girl hit by a ute on her way to school in Hillcrest, here's an update.
The Berkley Normal Middle School student has had surgery and is in a stable condition at Waikato Hospital.
She's surrounded by a teddy bear in her school's colours, cards, balloons, and flowers, according to principal Nathan Leith.
He spoke to the student just hours after the accident, on a controlled crossing.
"That actually made my day - to be able to hear her talk and knowing she was going to be okay was a huge relief."
The girl is said to be getting back to her "cheeky self", talking, and asking questions about the crash.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
