    Foreword.

    A Teachers' College attempts in two short years to
    send out students capable of playing an important part in
    the education of the children in our schools. To do this
    effect[...]aspects must receive attention.

    the College must provide a field where your
    development as a person may continue. The oppor-
    tunities in a College are almost without limit. Many of
    you will be awa[...]neath you. Take your full part
    in the life of the College, contribute something to it,
    and you will find satisfaction in your two years here.

    Secondly, the College must provide you with the
    academic background so[...]organised study is re-
    quired.

    Thirdly, the College must help you to love, understand
    and respect the[...]ly teaching him. You will find that the theory in College
    is practical and helps you greatly when in[...]
    [...]portunities,
    for they will never recur.
    The College is a democracy where staff and students
    work clos[...]als. Play your part to the full and leave the College a
    better place for having had you as a student.

    THE COLLEGE
    The Palmerston North Teachers' College is established
    in a building which had served the city long as a Technical
    College. In 1955, a new Technical College was built further
    from the centre of the city and[...]five minutes' walk from the main business
    area of Palmerston North-Broadway and the Square. Im-
    mediately opposite o[...]y and aesthetically.
    While the old Technical College was growing, pressure
    on accommodation forced the[...]vilion.

    THE COLLEGE COAT OF ARMS
    To appreciate the College Coat of Arms one must have
    a knowledge of the co[...]r of a family, and, as we are the
    sixth Teachers' College to be established in New Zealand,
    this sym[...]

    lished College which has yet to make its mark in the
    field of education.
