Canterbury Pioneer Women's Memorial
The memorial in 2020
- ... that although it was a centennial project, the Canterbury Pioneer Women's Memorial (pictured) in New Zealand was opened 90 years after the region's organised settlement began? Source: This page explains the 1940 centennial in New Zealand. This page outlines that the organised settlement of the Canterbury Region began with the arrival of the First Four Ships in December 1850. And in December 1940, 90 years after the ships started arriving, The Press reported the opening of the Canterbury Pioneer Women's Memorial.
