When Western Bay of Plenty teacher Stephen Hall headed to work this morning he never imagined his day would involve jumping out of a plane.

The Omokoroa Point School teacher was in the middle of teaching his Year 6 and 7 class when he found out he had been selected for the Classic Hits ‘throw your teacher out of a plane' competition today.


Omokoroa Point School teacher Stephen Hall got an early morning surprise skydive today.

There was no time to think before the primary school teacher was rushed off to Tauranga Airport to skydive with the Tauranga Tandem Skydive team.

SunLive headed along to the jump to catch a glimpse of Stephen's Wednesday morning experience.
