| Thu 11th July Historic Waiuta Hut Restoration Monika Coles Monika was part of a restoration project working on Jos Divis cottage in Waiuta on the West Coast. Jos Divis came to New Zealand from the Czech Republic in 1909 and settled in Waiuta. He is called the Forgotten Photographer who saved a town. Monika went back to the cottage for its official opening in March this year and was lucky enough to be an interpreter for the Divis family that came to learn about their uncle Jos and find out more about his life here. |
