Bequest to Maori Education A retired carpenter, Mr John Kenneth Chubbin Mitchell, who died on 24 April, has left nearly £12,000 to the Maori Education Foundation. An experienced tradesman, he had high esteem for the craftmanship of Maoris and was interested in the welfare of young Maoris. He also left his house in Wadestown to be used as a hostel for young Maoris studying in Wellington or undertaking a course of training for any trade or profession. At present the house is being renovated, and it is hoped that it will be available at the beginning of next year as a hostel for Maori boys. The new hostel will be under the control of the present Master and Matron of Piki Mai hostel.
