The nurse on the right has been identified as Eileen Beaumont. The nurse in the middle is possibly Heather Trewheelen.

This negative comes from the Elmar Collection - a large series of semi-identified and unidentified images from the 1930s-1970s.

The house in this photograph was located next to the Tokomaru Public Hall. It served as the town's first Post Office and first school house. Tom Morgan lived in this house from 1925 to 1935. The house was demolished in 1992 and the land used for car parking at the hall.

This image comes from a collection of negatives taken by H M Griffiths in the early 1900s, probably 1910-1920. Many of these negatives are labelled as having been taken in Tokomaru, but many have no information with them. They were donated to the City Archives in 1971.

The first intermediate school in Palmerston North was opened in 1941 at 300 Ferguson Street. This photograph shows the class taught by Mr Arthur Budd. It was taken to mark the departure of Robert Black, sitting first on the left in the front row. Black had been evacuated from Scotland with his older sister Marjorie for the duration of the Second World War. They were placed with Mr and Mrs Bruce Levy, of Fitzherbert Avenue. Robert Black later returned to Palmerston North and worked as a chef at the Albert Hotel.

The boy and girl class captains sit on either side of Mr Budd. They were Brian Ellwood, later Sir Brian, Mayor of Palmerston North (1971-1985) and June Burgess (later Camplin). Information supplied by June Camplin and other past pupils has helped us identify many of the students.

Caption: "The first Evangelical training centre in New Zealand has been opened on the 100 acre property formerly owned by Mr. Tom Woodruff, who recently joined the Mission, and situated on the Tangimoana highway, 20 miles from Palmerston North. The training centre is supervised by Mr. John Edwards, acting principal, and Mr. Don Hay, acting representative, both of whom arrived from the U.S.A. last February to take up their posts. All together there are five such training centres in the world."

"The main type of work of the mission, which at the moment has 19 students, wives included, is preaching and work among the natives of unexplored, untouched areas of the world, said Mr. Hay. Each student and his family will spend about 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 years training here and then to Australia to study linguistics at the New Tribes Mission centre there."

The New Tribes Mission School, a language and finishing school for missionaries near Tangimoana Beach was opened in 1962. The four hectare property contained accommodation quarters, a workshop, laundries, nursery room, study rooms and an office block. In September 1979 it was put up for sale, being forced to close because of the cost of bringing students to New Zealand.
