Whanganui & Palmerston North © Lonely Planet Publications Pty Ltd 268 Whanganui & WHANGANUI & PALMERSTON NORTH NORTH PALMERSTON Palmerston North The Whanganui and Manawatu districts comprise a sizeable chunk of the North Island’s south, running from Tongariro National Park in the north down towards Wellington. This is mellow, pastoral country, draped with rounded green hills, gently bent roads, socially significant cities and magical national parks, rivers and gorges. The history-rich Whanganui River curls through Whanganui National Park down to Whanganui city. Ripe with outdoor opportunities, the splendiferous Whanganui River Rd mimics the river’s bows, while Whanganui itself, a 19th-century river port, has aged grace- fully, recently reinventing itself as a centre for New Zealand glass art. Palmerston North, the Manawatu’s main city, is a town of two peoples: tough-talkin’ country fast-foodies in hotted-up cars and caffeinated Massey University literati, coexisting with none of Cambridge’s ‘Town vs Gown’ sabre-rattling. During the semester the cafes jump and pubs overflow with students. Beyond the city the Manawatu blends rural grace with yesterday’s pace, cut by the dra- matic slice of Manawatu Gorge. A meandering Manawatu drive is the perfect antidote to NZ’s tourism juggernaut – you might even squeeze in a little laziness!

Was this just a coincidental coastal plain. We don’t know from where aggregation, or was it a family group, either these birds come, but the time of year parent birds and their offspring, or a group suggests that they may be young birds of siblings dispersing together? We do not dispersing from their natal territories. This know, but because the number of birds year, however, up to four birds were present varied over time, a coincidental present together at one time at Virginia aggregation seems most likely. 1 Does the increase in reported sightings bonds? Close observation of such birds in of kaka suggest an increase in the number places such as Virginia Lake, could help us of birds in the region, or is this just an to understand better their interactions and artefact of more people becoming aware of social relationships.

I was born and bred at Taritariwhioi, Kaiwhaiki Pa on the lower reaches of the Whanganui River in a small, close-knit community of about 200 people. There were five in our family, four girls and one boy. My mother was Raina Kahukura, a warm, handsome woman who was steeped in the knowledge of our old people and their ways and was a great singer and performer. Mum was also a great orator and a keen compeEtor at the Hui Aranga. For many years she competed in the Senior Oratory and achieved a lot of success. My father was Te Kohiroa Tawaroa Tetana a hardworking man who spent hours in the garden, planEng, weeding and producing acres of kai, Maori potato, Maori corn, kamokamo, kumara and pumpkin. One of my earliest memories is of planEng rows and rows of corn alongside him. In 1965 at the age of 20, I joined the Congregaon of the Sisters of St Joseph of Nazareth. I had a strong Catholic upbringing and mum was a devout churchgoer. Our family recited the Rosary most nights and we aended Mass on Sundays. I received catechism lessons from Father Cook who came to Upokongaro School every Friday from St Mary’s parish. He would bring his tuning fork because he loved to hear us sing. His favourite hymn was Mo Maria.

The one- way bridge was officially opened by Lord Cobham, then New Zealand’s Governor-General, on 21 June 1958 with the unveiling of a plaque commemorating the event. At the time, construction was not quite complete – with rolled steel anchor rods from Australia having been delayed for seven months by industrial problems. Thus on the big day, Lord Cobham declared the bridge both officially opened and temporarily closed!1 The official opening of this bridge was especially significant to the Mangamahu community. A grand ball had been held the previous night in the woolshed at Okirae Station, complete with 30 truckloads of greenery used for decoration - and also the Governor-General.

    Wai 903, #A29 FINALDRAFf IOFFICIAL I Whanganui Waterways Scoping Report ( .) A Report for the Waitangi Tribunal , \ Tui Gilling November 2001 .\ . FINAL DRAFT 1. Introduction My name is Tui Gilling and I am of Te Whanau a Apanui descent. I have been working as a contract researcher in the treaty settlement area for the past two years. In addition to historical research, I also provide treaty policy advice to government departments. I graduated from Otago University with a BA in 1989 and a Postgraduate Diploma in New Zealand History in 1990. Over the past ten years I have worked for a variety of organisations including the Maori Affairs and Planning and Development Select Committees and as a Policy Analyst for the Ministry for the Environment. I have also ( worked in the area of environmental management in the United Kingdom. The author would like to thank Ralph Johnson from the Waitangi Tribunal for his assistance with this project and David Young for the sharing of his knowledge of the Whanganui area. .. ' , ., 2. Purpose of this report In August 2001, the Waitangi Tribunal commissioned a scoping report on Whanganui inland waterways and groundwater issues. The purpose of this report is to explore: ( i (a) The legislative measures, acts, omissions, practices and policies of the Crown that may have affected the Maori ownership, control and use of Whanganui waterways from 1840 to the present; (b) The legislative measures, acts, omissions, practices and policies of the Crown that may have affected the Maori ownership, control and use of Whanganui groundwater; (c) Any appeals and protests by Whanganui Maori against the acts and omissions of the Crown with respect to Whanganui waterways and groundwater.

  • The Parikino Block Claim
    Wai 903, #A22 OFFICIAL RESEARCH REPORT ON THE PARI KINO BLOCK CLAIM WAI 214 Tom Bennion 18 February 1994 Parikino research report 2 Scope of the Research Thi s report is the resul t of one week I s research of the documentary material available and several days writing Up.l The research included a one day visit to the offices of the Maori Land Court and Maori Trustee in Wanganui. I have viewed many of the original land court minutes and files relating to this block and its subdivisions (I was greatly aSSisted by the claimants who provided many papers from the block files and a Maori Trustee file). I have concentrated in particular on subdivision number 7, where, as the evidence shows, urupa are located. I have, in the time available, been able to view many, but by no means all of the relevant papers, and I note below areas which might reward further research. I believe however that the material viewed so far does allow some preliminary conclusions to be drawn about events in this block and the movement of the land out of the hands of the original Maori owners. Research Credentials My name is Thomas Hugh Bennion. In 1987 I graduated from the Victoria University of Wellington with a Bachelor of Laws with honours and a Bachelor of Arts, majoring in history. In 1986-88 I worked part-time as a researcher for the Law Commission on the production of the Commission report The Treaty of Waitangi and Maori Fisheries.
