The Thames Museum open day was a bustle of activity on October 12. Members of the public mingled with reenactors from the Historical Reenactors Society, wartime nurses and 1940s-era working class women. There was plenty to see and do, and visitors were treated to a wealth of knowledge about life in war-time New Zealand. “It’s wonderful that people are coming along and supporting the museum,” museum society chair Carolyn McKenzie said. ALICE PARMINTER captured the activities.
