Background and Credits

This school resource is part of the 110th anniversary commemorations of the granting of the right to vote to New Zealand women. The Landmarks Project Trust developed the Landmarks and the Trail of Light to celebrate achievements for and by New Zealand women. That material is reproduced in this resource by kind permission of the Landmarks Project - Celebrating Women Trust and the author Barbara Mabbett.

A memorial to the part that women have played in the social, economic, cultural, and spiritual development of New Zealand can be visited at the Wellington Cathedral of St Paul, Molesworth Street.

The Ministry of Education would like to thank those who contributed their time and expertise to the development of this website.
