Description

Local historians weekly "Back Issues" article in the Manawatū Standard. Local History Week and History Month this year is inspired by the whakatuakī (proverb) "Hāpaitia te ara tika pūmau ai te rangatiratanga mō ngā uri whakatipu". During the month of March, a focus will be on people, kaupapa and organisations from the past that have made an impact on the city. Changemakers and thought leaders will be highlighted, with more than 80 heritage activities presented and hosted by 50 organisations and individuals.

This article outlines a programme of activities featuring the history of Manawatū and Palmerston North. Talks, tours and workshops are mostly free to attend. The popular programme, co-ordinated by the Palmerston North City Library, has been held annually since 2008.
