As well as objects, the Kapiti Museum in Elizabeth Street has an interesting collection of photos and documents. This shows pupils and presumably the teacher hoeing vegetables in a large patch outside the school. At its initial roll was 26 in 1896, this must show them all, perhaps some parents also. Pumpkins are in the foreground.
