Arrangement: The boxes were arranged in numerical order by Area, District and Group by Scouts New Zealand before the records were deposited with the Library. The original box numbers have been incorporated in the title of each record. The division of the records into three series has also been retained.
The Wellington Area was established in 1962 from the former Wellington Province which was set up in 1955. The Area administered a number of districts (groups combined into geographical units)which in turn were subdivided into individual scout groups (local community units). The Wellington Area was abolished in 2007 prior to the reorganisation of Scouting New Zealand in 2008.
The national association, officially named Scout Association of New Zealand, was known as Scouts New Zealand from 2008.
