Tikitiki in Parliament BY DOROTHY MOSES Trailing along with schoolchildren from the Tikitiki Maori District High School from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. of their first day in Wellington was as exciting as it was exhausting. Eight boys and twelve girls between the ages of 13 and 17 came to the Capital City with their Headmaster, Mr Hugh N. Jennings, and his wife. Billeted with Onslow College pupils, they stayed for a wonderful week—a week during which they learned more than enough to fill the little note books each one carried so that back at Tikitiki they could give talks in Maori on their experiences. For most it was a first visit to Wellington— many had never before had a tram ride—one boy in wonder touched a mosaic tiled floor (“I thought it was metal”, he said). Lunch in a city restaurant surprised some (“It's so cheap”, one girl remarked). The Mayor of Wellington, Mr F. J. Kitts, received the children in his office. He showed them his official robes and ostrich plumed hat (the plumes lost their curl when the hat was cleaned before the visit of the Duke of Edinburgh), and he told them about a typical mayoral day. In the Traffic Office they learned about traffic control, and in the Central Library they had a conducted tour of that magnificent building. On a tour of Radio Station 2ZB the boys were fascinated to actually see an announcer while listening to his voice. The children recorded several songs and hakas and hoped their parents and schoolmates back home would hear them on the air. At 2 p.m. began a wonderful visit to Parliament Buildings. “I don't know what you did to the Prime Minister”, the children were told at four o'clock
