Native Bird Protection Society newsletter
Soon after the Native Bird Protection Society was formed in 1923, Val Sanderson (who was secretary for nearly 30 years) started to send out regular newsletters. This one, from November 1923, illustrates the society’s involvement with schools, and its lobbying to increase the number of island sanctuaries.
One of the society’s goals was to centralise the management of wildlife. This was achieved over 60 years later, when the Department of Conservation was created in 1987.
