The mother of one of six Hamilton girls hospitalised after taking tainted pills at school has been sentenced to community work for drug possession.
The woman, who cannot be identified for legal reasons, appeared in the Hamilton District Court today after admitting one charge of possession of a class C drug late last year.
Six Fairfield College pupils as young as 13 swallowed the small pink pills with a bird stamped on them in the belief they were ecstasy.
They reacted aggressively when admitted to Waikato Hospital's emergency department.
Police said analysis by scientists found the pills were made up of BZP - the active ingredient in recently banned party pills - and other controlled substances.
Earlier reports said the pills were the class B drug ecstasy.
The 38-year-old woman was sentenced today to 80 hours community work.
