An educationist is asking the upcoming Anglican general synod for half the $315 million worth of assets in a church trust, claiming the Anglican hierarchy didn’t do enough to save or support dying Maori boarding schools.
Professor Whatarangi Winiata, who established the tertiary institution Te Wananga o Raukawa, is responsible for a motion asking that 50 per cent of the St John’s College Trust Board’s assets be put under the control of Te Pihopatanga o Aotearoa – the Maori partner and one of the three arms of the church.
