Reasons to Invest in the Wairarapa while visiting Peter & Fran in NZ or while working Reasons on one of their numerous films. But it’s one of Sir Peter’s great passions that will have the greatest impact on Wairarapa tourism 10to invest and growth. His collection of replica WW1 aircraft in airworthy condition is now largely housed at Masterton’s Hood aerodrome. It’s here that the replica aircraft are assembled, using engines manufactured in the in Wellington. Negotiations are now underway with Masterton District Council for a huge addition to the present facilities at Hood, enabling Sir Peter to relocate his entire personal collection of WW1 aircraft Wairarapa and vehicles from Omaka (Blenheim) to Masterton. The Omaka experience is presently Blenheim’s leading single tourist attraction. Eventually the present bi-annual ‘Wings over Wairarapa’ air show could become a daily occurrence in Masterton – at least for six - eight months of the year. The potential for such an international tourism magnet to draw considerable additional investment; associated business and industry and employment into Masterton and the Wairarapa is incalculable. 1Peter Jackson Sir Peter Jackson’s affinity with the Wairarapa is now well documented. His huge rambling estate five kilometres north of Masterton at Matahiwi is the stuff of local legend. Secrecy as to what exactly is there is strictly maintained, but some visitors have spoken of underground tunnels and a working train.

While many of these higher income Wairarapa residents commute by private car, the availability of a frequent daily commuter rail service from Masterton to Wellington with seven stops in the Wairarapa appears to be of increasing appeal.

  • Stakeholder Study: Resource Management of Wairarapa Moana
    Natalie Diltz Jena Mazzucco Austin Scott Jeffrey Sirocki March 2, 2016 STAKEHOLDER STUDY: RESOURCE MANAGEMENT OF WAIRARAPA MOANA Identification and Analysis of Wairarapa Moana Stakeholder Opinions Regarding the Management of the Blundell Barrage Gates Abstract This project aided the Greater Wellington Regional Council (GWRC) in collecting opinions from five stakeholder groups concerning management of the naturally flooding Lake Wairarapa in New Zealand. Our team conducted a total of twenty-nine interviews with the Rangitāne (Māori), Department of Conservation, South Wairarapa District Council, landowners, and recreational water users regarding the Blundell Barrage Gates which play a vital role in flood management. Interview discussions indicate that water quality, sources of pollution, water levels, flood management, and future operation of the barrage gates are controversial. We identified communication, collaboration, and education as three areas of focus for the GWRC as they continue to improve their management of the region. i Executive Summary This project is concerned with Wairarapa Moana, a water system located in the Wairarapa region, situated on the North Island of New Zealand. Wairarapa Moana consists of the three main water bodies, shown in Figure 1; the coastal lake is Lake Onoke, the inland lake is Lake Wairarapa, and the main river is the Ruamahanga. The system is dynamic, which means water can flow in both directions. Both tidal movements and rainfall affect the direction of flow. The area is low-lying and sits between two mountain ranges exposing much of the land to seasonal flooding. The Greater Wellington Regional Council, the governing body for the Wellington region, developed the Lower Wairarapa Valley Development Scheme (LWVDS), to control flooding in the 1960s.

Introduction This report summarises the meteorology and hydrology of the 15 – 16 February 2004 storm event that affected the Wellington region. The report gives an overview of the synoptic weather patterns, quantifies the rainfall and river flows, and provides a frequency analysis of the event. The hydrological data used is from Greater Wellington Regional Council’s environmental monitoring network, supplemented with data from NIWA, the MetService and private landowners. During the storm event slips and flooding caused damage in many parts of the region, in particular in southern Wairarapa, Wainuiomata, the Hutt Valley and Eastbourne. However, this report is a hydrological analysis and does not describe the effect of flood protection measures, the damage that occurred or the civil defence response during the event. Throughout February 2004 there were several storms that affected parts of the Wellington region.

  • A 40 Year History
    New Zealand Secondary Schools Athletics Association National Secondary School Cross Country Championships A 40 Year History Introduction The New Zealand Secondary Schools Athletics Association is proud to publish a forty- year history of the New Zealand Secondary Schools Cross Country Championships. Participation in the event between 1974 and 2013 totals well over 10,000 athletes from all but a handful of schools from around the country. With an annual involvement of over 1000 students it has become one of the largest secondary school sporting events in New Zealand. The idea for this document was born during the 1995 NZSSCC Championships in Masterton. At this time (before the internet), results were published in a hard copy booklet. In this particular year the first three place getters in the individual, and three and six person team categories were published for the first twenty-one years of the events history. This accompanied the full set of 1995 results. After this event, the majority of results were published electronically. Unfortunately, many of these results were lost in the mid to late nineties because there was no dedicated NZSSAA website. Sincere thanks need to be given to Don Chadderton for providing the first twenty years’ of results. Without these early results a significant part of athletics New Zealand’s history would have eventually been forgotten. These include the 1974 performance of Alison Rowe, who would later go on to win both the 1981 Boston and New York marathons. As well as Burnside High School’s 1978 performance in the junior boys event where they completed the perfect three-man score of six points.
