In this recording Laura Frost talks with George Hawkins who started at Rosehill College in 1985. In this track George recalls some memorable moments and explains his choice of subjects including in later years studying Japanese and the relationship with sister city Ichihara in Japan. Later he recalls the businesses and shops of Papakura in the late 1980s. Have you got a story to add to the Voices of Rosehill College project? We'd love to add your story to this collection.
