Work Camps

A national works camp to give aid to the Maori community will be held from 23 November to 6 December at Turangi.

The project, which will be based at the Hirangi Marae, the centre of Maoridom in Turangi, involves the renovating and rebuilding of the dining room as well as fencing off the surrounding areas.

Local Maori Welfare Officers will assist in arranging educational programmes in the district.

An increased emphasis has been placed on students addressing the local schools and speaking to elders.

Students wishing to enrol, in the work camps must return application forms which are available at the general office, to Torben Sorenson at Massey University by 8 October.
