  • Whatever Happened to Tuatapere? a Study on a Small Rural Community Pam Smith
    Whatever happened to Tuatapere? A study on a small rural community Pam Smith Pam Smith has worked in the social work field for the past 25 years. She has worked with children and families within the community both in statutory and non-government organisations. She has held social worker and supervisor roles and is currently a supervisory Team Leader at Family Works Southland. This article was based on Pam’s thesis for her Master of Philosophy in Social Work at Massey University. Abstract Social workers working in the rural community do so within a rural culture. This culture has developed from historical and cultural influences from the generations before, from the impact of social and familial changes over the years and from current internal and external influences. These changes and influences make the rural people who they are today. This study was carried out on a small rural community in Western Southland. The purpose was to examine the impact on the community of social changes over the past 50 years. Eight long-term residents were interviewed. The results will be discussed within this article. Introduction Government policies, changes in international trade and markets, environmental policies, globalisation, change in the structure of local and regional government and legislative changes, impacted on all New Zealanders during the past 50 years. The rural hinterland of New Zealand was affected in particular ways. The population in rural communities has been slowly decreasing over the years as ur- banisation has been a reality in New Zealand. Services within the area have diminished and younger families have moved away to seek employment elsewhere.

The tracks are usually quite wide, depending on the terrain – some t two people walking side by side in at areas. The surface is usually gravel, rock or dirt, and like any track can get slippery in wet weather. Most rivers and waterways on these tracks have sturdy bridges. Occasionally there are also small streams that cross the track but are usually easy enough to step across safely. Be aware that in wet weather rivers can rise very quickly and ood the tracks – especially on the Milford Track. There are hill climbs where the track becomes steeper, which is all the better for views.
