A three-year project undertaken by Laurie and Winifred Bauer from the School of Linguistics and Applied Language Studies at Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand came to an end in February 2002. The purpose of the project was to find out whether there were different dialects discernible in primary school playgrounds in different parts of New Zealand. In brief, the research showed that there are three main dialect areas, and a great deal of social variation was ... demonstrated. As a by-product of the research, quite a lot of material was gathered about children's games and chants. A website has been established with almost 1200 pages of working documents, detailing the project method, the results, and making available all the material on children's games derived from the study. It also contains a list of paper publications which have resulted from the project.
