On March 24th, 1970 Her Majesty the Queen, Honorary Fellow of the College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists, opened the first building of the Auckland School of Medicine which is now in its third year. Our Postgraduate School was established in 1948, the same year as the establishment of the New Zealand Regional Council. The growing school of medicine has come latterly under the influence of pre‐clinical forces but with the advent of the clinical course in 1971 the clinical advisers are hard at work preparing a curriculum that must suit practitioners who will be still working in 2013, if the retiring age remains the same. “Upon the education of the people of this country the fate of this country depends” these words, spoken by Disraeli in the House of Commons in June 1874, are no less true in this or any other country today.
