Students from a number of Whanganui Schools met the Prime Minister at the Whanganui Regional Museum on Friday and gathered in parliamentary formation in the foyer to ask Mr Key a few questions.
The Prime Minister was quizzed about everything from whether New Zealand is safe from terrorist attacks to his favourite Olympic events.
He replied that New Zealand is safer than most places but an attack is possible.
Pole vaulter Eliza McCartney's performance at the Olympics was his favourite watch because she is the recipient of one of his PM scholarships which are for university students who are high performance sports people as well.
