Craighead Legacy

Craighead has an extensive collection of memorabilia relating to its history from 1911. Amongst its records are photographs, movies, student work, uniforms and school magazines. The items are stored in a purpose built room and are used in some class work and of course class reunions.

Donations of photographs, memorabilia and written reminiscences are always gratefully received. The school appointed an archivist in 2005 to manage the collection. The archivist can be contacted on archives@craighead.school.nz or through the school office. Gradually the photograph collection is being digitized which will make access even easier in the future. The school archives exist as a repository of the stories of those who are part of the Craighead family. As each year passes more records are created and so more needs to be retained.

Visitors are always welcome, by appointment.
