Archives

Have you ever visited the Waikato Diocesan School Archives? Have you ever thought of donating your school memorabilia to the archives? 

Depositing material in the school archives ensures it will be available in perpetuity.  It could include photographs of people, buildings, special events or sports groups.  Publications such as school newspapers, newsletters, rules and handbooks, scrapbooks, newspaper cutting books, and particularly memorabilia from past pupils can be deposited in the archives.  Pupil workbooks, programmes and invitations to special events are of particular interest.  School uniforms, badges and other textile materials are also stored in the archives.

If you have anything you believe may be significant to the school's history, please contact the school.
