Between 1978 and 1985, Turoa Royal held the position of Principal of Wellington High School. During that period he saw many changes from the erection of the Main and Science Block buildings to the introduction of the Whanau System, to bringing in computers as one of New Zealand's first secondary school to teach IT. Now 83 he speaks to WHS Archivist Carey Clements about some of those changes as well as his vast background in Education, which saw him rise to be awarded a CMNZ in 2015.
