Polish refugees arriving at Wellington and at the Polish Children's Camp at Pahiatua, 1944

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: 13 black and white photographs of Polish refugees arriving at Wellington and at the Polish Children's Camp at Pahiatua, taken from New Zealand Prime Minister Walter Nash's collection.

From NZ History (https://nzhistory.govt.nz/page/polish-refugees-land-new-zealand): "In 1943 Prime Minister Peter Fraser invited a group of Polish children to New Zealand for the duration of the war. 

A camp for the children – dubbed ‘Little Poland’ – was established near Pahīatua in Wairarapa. Most of the refugees chose to settle in New Zealand after the war. Relatives joined some in the late 1940s, while a small number returned to Poland."
