Taotaoroa Waikato School Pupls to 1908

Taken from the site: Taotaoroa Schools Cambridge

In September 1885, two 'half time' schools sharing one teacher between them were opened in the district. Taotaoroa No 1 was near Buckland Road and Taotaoroa No 2 at Whitehall. At the end of 1892 No 2 School was closed. Then at the end of 1896 No 1 School also closed but, then moved closer to Cambridge and reopened in 1899. No 2 School was opened again in 1902, and they continued as 'half time' schools until 1907 when they both became full time schools with their own teachers

the Centenary 100 Years of Education in the Taotaoroa Whitehall Karapiro Districts. 1885 ? 1985
.. Two of the three districts concerned in our centenary Taotaoroa and Karapiro still retain original Maori Names. Whitehall, an out-station on the Fencourt Estate became the name for the third district. However when the first European settlers came, practically the whole area was known as Taotaoroa. Early settlers whose descendants have had a continuing association with the area were the Bruce family who arrived in 1871 and the Brunskill family who came in 1875. The 1884 Electoral Roll contained 21 names of men who either lived in or had property interests in the Taotaoroa area
