APPEAL FOR FUNDS
towards the Re-building of Hukarere Native Girls' School, Napier. The total destruction by fire of the Hukarere Girls' School has removed from the Dominion one of the most useful and successful agencies for the training and uplifting of the Maori race. It is most important that the School, which has contained over sixty Maori girls and for twenty-seven years did duty alone for the Church of England throughout the Dominion, should be rebuilt with as little delay as possible. The Trustees contemplate rebuilding the School on a more commodious site m Napier and m more permanent material, the cost of which will probably be from £6000 to £7000. Towards this amount some £2000 will be forthcoming from the insurance of the old buildings, and I earnestly appeal to Europeans and Maoris for assistance towards the £5000 required. Contributions will be received and acknowledged on my behalf by Mr. J. B. Fielder, Diocesan Office, Napier. A. W. Waiapu. Bishopscourt, Napier, 6th November, 1910.
