Summary

[edit]
Description

Burnham Industrial School was opened by the Government in 1874 in order to provide both for the welfare of destitute and neglected children, and also for the reformation of what were considered criminal children.

Those destitute were often boarded out to foster parents, in order that they be provided with a home environment, while others were taken into service. In 1901, the institution became purely a reformatory, and many non-delinquent children who had been housed there were sent on to Caversham Industrial School, Dunedin.

Industrial Schools' Nominal Rolls are held at our Wellington office. The images here are of the building and grounds, and the timetable and meal plan of 1874.
