Looking at Ourselves
OME time ago the citizens of Hawera decided to build a war memorial community centre. To find out exactly what the needs of the community were, the townspeople asked the Psychology Department of Victoria University College to make a social survey of the district. Their report, which has now been
published in booklet form, gives detailed information on the social and leisure time activities of a carefullycalculated cross-section of the community and draws attention to features which the experts feel should be considered in planning the centre. A programme describing how the survey was planned and the way it was received by the district’s citizens will be broadcast from Station 2XP at 8.1 p.m. on Monday, August 23. The programme is called Looking at Ourselves. A number of people concerned with the survey speak in the programme, including L. M. H. Cave, Adult Education Tutor in the area, who first thought of the idea, A. A. Congalton, Lecturer in Psycihology at Victoria University College, G. A. Thomson, headmaster of the Hawera | Technical High School, Graeme Laurenson, architect in charge of the plans for. the community centre, and F. W. Finer, the Mayor of Hawera. re SS SES ST Ee eee eae ee, SA
