New Dining Room at Manutuke Fund-raising for ‘Aroha a te Rangatahi a Tūrāhiri’, the new dining hall at Manutuke began in 1964, and although the main construction was completed in 1967, the opening was delayed until this year, because the young women of the marae felt that their N.P.S. photograph

men's excellent work should be enhanced with tukutuku and kowhaiwhai. Traditional materials proved extremely difficult to obtain, so the hall is decorated with modern substitutes. Our two pictures show the Minister of Maori Affairs talking with the little girl who was first across the threshhold and her father, and the Waihirere Cultural Group performing outside the meeting house, Te Mana O Turanga’.
