PUNGA-HARURU Activities of a Maori Educational Centre The Whanganui Educational Advancement Committee takes a practical interest in all fields of education and its influence extends from pre-school to the universities. Much of its time is devoted to helping individual students and families with problems that affect the children's education. However, it also believes in long-term planning to foster in Maori communities the kind of cultural and intellectual climate which will encourage their children to make the most of their abilities and to become useful and well-informed citizens. Its main venture in this sphere revolves around Punga-haruru, Mr and Mrs Ted Waitere's little cottage at Putiki which has become the headquarters of the Advancement Committee and where three linked activities are now in progress: story hours, a study and coaching centre, and a community library.
