Visits by Delegates

Delegates visited factories and research institutions in the Wellington district, where they had the opportunity of seeing science and scientists at work in the community. Wellington is particularly fortunate to have many DSIR and commercial laboratories close at hand and the committee is very grateful to the many organisations which opened their doors to the conference.

Social events included an opening buffet tea and dance, a day tour of Wellington, a wine and cheese tasting evening, and the final conference dinner. There were, therefore, many opportunities for delegates from different universities to meet informally to discuss their own study and research projects, and to discuss their own club activities.
