Thanks everyone for coming along to the Kariaotahi School reunion on Saturday. It was a wonderful day with so many memories shared and, of course, the world premiere of "Kariaotahi School - the DVD".
Copies of this are available from Viv Lee at 092358418. In keeping with true Kariaotahi tradition, a bountiful shared lunch was enjoyed , musical items were provided by the Bulte family and a jolly good time was had by all.
Group photos will be sent after Easter to those who ordered them. Meanwhile, other photos and information will be added bit by bit from here on.
It was encouraging to have so many people support this project and offer their photos and other information.
Meanwhile, keep checking out this site for the latest updates.

This blog was established in 2011 to help promote an informal reunion of past pupils of Kariaotahi School at the old school building. It is now used to gather information about the history of Kariaotahi/Karioitahi and the people and families associated with the school and district. This blog is also operated in conjunction with the "Kariaotahi Connected" Facebook page.
Who's coming to the reunion so far?

Movie stars
We have a movie of Kariaotahi School in 1960, filmed by Noel Bulte, and recently transferred to DVD format. The movie stars Tony Turner (Principal), students and parents of Kariaotahi School, including a calfclub, a visit to Norman Douglas, a trip to the Museum in Auckland and a school picnic at the coast. There are also a number of photos taken from this blog, at the end of the movie.
We will be showing the DVD at the reunion, and it will be available for purchase at $10 a copy.
