Home For Maori Minister An 11-year-old bungalow next to the Rehua hostel for Maori apprentices, will be bought by the Methodist Central Mission subject to a Government grant.

"It is ultimately planned that this will be used for a Maori minister,” said the superintendent of the mission (the Rev. W E. Falkinghaml. “In the meantime it could be used for the master and matron of the hosteL” The Maori Affairs Department had recently suggested that there could be a few Maori students at the hostel. Mr Falkingham said “If we did this then we could have one room set aside in the house for a study or even for a bedroom,” Mr Falkingham said.
