COOL, CLEAR WATER by Angie Belcher Long before New Zealand was inhabited by mankind, freshwater 1 springs were sending torrents of pure water bubbling to freedom. The Maori, who eventually settled in the mantles of wilderness surrounding these crystal outlets, created folklore about the 5 springs, filling the bush with enchanted creatures and unseen presences. From rivers and springs rose one of Maoridom’s fiercer spirits, the taniwha. According to traditional descriptions, taniwha resembled huge lizards of which the Maori had a superstitious fear. Taniwha were said to dwell in 10 caves and pools, preying upon lone travellers in an attempt to quench an insatiable desire for human flesh. New Zealand’s freshwater springs—and their legends—make an irresistible combination. TePunaHangaraa or Hamurana Springs, are situated on the 15 northern edge of Lake Rotorua, 13.5km from Rotorua city. They comprise more than 15 springs. The largest vent, despite being only spa-pool size, emits nearly five million litres of water an hour. At midday, eerie shafts of sunlight filter through the springs’ woven 20 ceiling of ponga to illuminate the main outlet, reputedly the home of the taniwha. She was known as Hinerua and, unlike other Rotorua Taniwha who feared for their voracity, was both gentle and female and regarded a pet by the nearby chieftainess. Hinerua would leave 25 her cold spring and visit her mistress tip-toeing around the kumara plantations and peering though gaps in the village palisades. When the chieftainess died, Hinerua was never seen again. The small blind fish which occasionally rise up with the spring waters are still referred to as koaro, the children of Hinerua. Hamurana 30 Springs were of great spiritual importance, a special place, of the NgatiRangiwewehi people. The early Maori occupants built pa sites beside the springs, cultivated food and collected eel and crayfish. By1882,the springs were becoming a tourist attraction, providing a source of income for the NgatiRangiwewehi who had been 35 awarded the springs as part of the Mangarewa-Kaharoa block by the Native Land Court. In 1886, the government had bought a one-third share in the block reserving a large portion for scenic purposes. Boundary adjustments and control of the land continued to change over 40 the next 70 years. Exotic vegetation was introduced, a stand of redwoods planted and the area surrounding the springs and river were designated a wildlife refuge. Unfortunately, long-term plans for the development of the area floated away when the owners went bankrupt. A succession of new owners failed to make any progress. 45 A caretaker is now responsible of the Hamurana Wildlife Refuge, but its future hangs in limbo. Six kilometres from Hamurana are Taniwha Springs, source of the Awahou River. The Maori named the eerie pool Te Waro-uri (Dark Chasm), home of one of Rotorua’s more notorious taniwha, 50 Pekehaua, the man-eater. Many people travelling between Rotorua and Taupo mysteriously vanished and suspicion fell on this fierce taniwha. A plan was made to capture it. Warriors cut supplejack canes and tough forest vines, constructing a taiki or a basketwork cage decorated with feathers and weighted with stones. 55 The cage was brought to the riverbank at Te Waro-uri. A courageous chief named Pikata, along with several brave warriors dived into the icy waters to entice the monster into the trap. Above them tohunga chanted incantations to weaken the taniwha’s power. Pikata was able to slip a noose around the taniwha and signalled 60 to the warriors above to raise the cage. It caught on the bank, broke open and warriors rushed at the taniwha beating it to death. Pekehaua was cut open, revealing undigested bodies, weapons, garments of dog’s hair and cloaks adorned with kiwi and kaka feathers. Pekehaua’s flesh was roasted and eaten in a display of 65 contempt and celebration. Taniwha Springs also became a tourist attraction as much as for its legend as its huge number of rainbow trout which travelled up the river to spawn. During the peak of its commercialism, the springs had its own modern legend in the making. The stream 70 became home to Harvey, a hermaphrodite rainbow trout with a unique colour scheme, earning him nicknames such as “Technicolour” and “Two-toned”. His distinctive colours, dark green in front and yellow-green on the ear, would reverse during feeding. 75 Taniwha Springs, now handed back to the Maori land owners, are slowly returning to their original state. Waikoropupu Springs are the largest, clearest and most popular of New Zealand’s freshwater springs, situated just 10 minutes from Takaka in the South Island. The basin, containing the main 80 spring, is only 42 metres across, but by using a system of mirrors, two scientists from the National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research were able to test the visual clarity of the water. The result was a stunning 62 metres of horizontal visibility, possibly the clearest fresh water in the world. 85 A huge system of flooded chambers exists in the buried marble beneath the Takaka Valley. Overlaying the marble is a thick layer of impervious sandstone which acts as a cap rock over the water. In the Waikoropupu Valley, the river above has eroded through this cap rock. The underground water, at great pressure, has busted 90 through and formed the Pupu Springs. The water emerges filtered and pure, a process which can take up to 10 years. Millions of litres of clear water pour from the springs’ eight vents at a constant temperature of 11.7 degrees Celsius. The flow ranges from 7 to 21 cubic metres a second, with an average flow of about 14 cubic 95 metres, enough force to make rocks dance. This activity does little to disturb the thriving crayfish or the delicate weeds and mosses which are well-adjusted to the flow. Early Maori regarded Waikoropupu (bubbling waters) as sacred— a place of spiritual cleansing for travellers along the greenstone 100 The legend of the sacred springs has been handed down by word of mouth for generations. Afraid of losing this ancient legend forever, Maori elders have entrusted the story of Huriawa, the taniwha and guardian of the springs, to New Zealand writer Barry Brailsford. His Book, Song of Waitaha, due for release shortly, will 105 enable New Zealanders to learn the story associated with these magical waters. With careful planning and management, Waikoropupu and its surrounding historical sites will remain a national treasure for all to enjoy. Bizarre bacterial formations, with the fragility of gossamer, 11O adorn some smaller, less accessible springs which are tucked away in the New Zealand wilderness. Their location remains as elusive as the legends which surround them.

C. Rijkse and D. F. Guinto Preface Soil is a resource, a living, breathing entity that, if treated properly, will maintain itself. It’s our lifeline for survival. When it has finally been depleted, the human population will disappear. Project your imagination into the soil below you next time you go into the garden. Think with compassion of the life that exists there. Think, the drama, the harvesting, and the work that carries on ceaselessly. Think about the meaning of being a steward for the earth. Marjorie Harris, In the Garden (1995) For as long as I can remember I have been intrigued and fascinated by landscapes and soils of New Zealand, in particular of the Bay of Plenty where I spent a good deal of my career mapping soils. A landscape to me is a puzzle, a closed book, and to be able to open that book, to solve the puzzle by finding out what soils are in the landscape and what are the possibilities for good land use, is a joy we scientists call pedology – the science of soils.

  • Over the Years
    OVER THE YEARS A HISTORY OF THE RURAL COMMUNITY HALLS IN THE ROTORUA DISTRICT FOREWORD Nau mai, Haere mai, There are nine rural community halls in the Rotorua District, at Broadlands, Kaharoa, Mamaku, Ngakuru, Ngongotaha, Okareka, Reporoa, Rerewhakaaitu, and Waikite. Volunteers have driven the development and maintenance of these vital community facilities, which have been the focus for community functions and gatherings for many years. In 2001, Rotorua District Council awarded certificates of appreciation to many of these volunteers for their tireless efforts to sustain the upkeep of their local halls. This booklet was commissioned by the District Council to record the history of Rotorua’s rural halls, for both archival and community interest. Information was compiled in the latter months of 2002 by Marlana Maru, a Year 2 Bachelor of Applied Social Science student from the Waiariki Institute of Technology. RDC Social Research Officer Paul Killerby undertook additional editing and formatting. Marlana and I would like to thank the many local informants whose memories and impressions contributed to this booklet. In particular we would like to thank Barbara Blackburn, Peter Blackburn, Andy Burnett, Mary Burnett, David Fleet, Lyn Fleet, Maxine Greenslade, Triss Hill, Wally Hope, Marie Jepsen, Noeleen Martelli, Verna Martelli, Pam Murray, Jim Nicholson, Norman Reichardt, Rei Reichardt, Arthur Roe, Don Sandilands, and Chris Stevens. We would welcome any further background information on the halls listed in this booklet, which will be recorded and utilised in any further update of the publication.

  • Formation of the Sport of Athletics in Rotorua
    Lake City Athletic Club Inc A History by Pam Kenny Three clubs joined together in April 1991, to form the current Lake City Athletic Club Inc. A short history of the earlier clubs is shown first. Rotorua Amateur Athletic & Cycling Club / Rotorua Athletic Club 1931-1991 On the 13 November 1931 a meeting was convened at Brent’s Bathgate House to establish an athletic and cycling club in Rotorua. Thirty people were in attendance and the Rotorua Amateur Athletic and Cycling Club was formed, with the club achieving incorporated society status in 1938. Blue and gold were the club colours - blue singlet/blouse and shorts with gold “R” on the top. Weekly competitions were held at the Rotorua Boys High on a Friday evening, with the customary track and field events for the runners, with cyclists contesting both track and road races. Val Robinson winning an early ladies’ athletics meeting in the late 1940's The club went into recess during the Second World War, with activities resuming October 1944. Venues utilized between 1944 and 1960 were Harriers in the late 1940's - L to R; John Wild, Alex Kuirau Park, the old A&P Showgrounds near Uta Millar, Keith French, Harry Findon Street, Arawa Park, Pererika Street, and again Kuirau Park. 1961 saw the Club at Smallbone Park, its home until the 1983/84 season, when a move was made to the new International Stadium, though the inadequacy of the track led to a return to Smallbone Park for a season. 1986 it was back to the Stadium until sand carpeting of the ground prevented permanent lane markings and children being able to run barefooted.
