Nelson, being unique in New Zealand for the variety of its crops, draws educational parties to the province during the height of the apple, tobacco and hop picking seasons. Above a party of children from Awakino School, New Plymouth, watch apples being loaded aboard tbe Rakaia, and below, children from Shirley Intermediate School, Christchurch, pause at the top of Princes Drive for this photo during their week's visit to Nelson province.
