Supporting Bonni & Matthew at the Wangapeka

Here is a letter from Jane Hobday, Graham Sandlant, and Glenn Harley talking about how the idea of a new Teachers Cabin came about.

This letter is a way of communicating something of the process that has led to the decision to build a cabin at the Wangapeka to support Bonni and Matthew.
