Education at Te Aute Mr Winter received his education at Te Aute College, where he was dux in 1922. He remembers his old school with affection. ‘I regard my time at Te Aute as most valuable in that it reinforced my appreciation of my Maori ancestry. It also gave me the basis of a very wide acquaintance of Maoris belonging to tribes other than Ngaitahu.’ In 1924 Mr Winter joined the Maori Affairs Department and for the next nine years he was employed in the Ikaroa and South Island District Office in Wellington. During this period he gained a wide knowledge, particularly of his Ngaitahu people and their claims.
