Rotorua 1 Princes Arch Gateway Architecture Seems to Be a Big City Activity
ITINERARY n.33 NOT ON MAP 9 10 11 13 15 2 4 1 5 6 7 8 3 14 12 The Blue Baths, 1933 1901 City Guide: Rotorua 1 Princes Arch Gateway Architecture seems to be a big city activity. It is, of course, possible to think of exceptions - Mario Arawa Street Botta in the mountain resort town of Lugano, Peter Zumthor beavering away in the tiny Swiss village of Haldenstein, or more close at hand, John Scott seeming to pluck inspired designs from the coastal air of Haumoana – but almost every significant architect is associated with a particular metropolis, and much of what we assume is important about architectural culture seems to rely on metropolitan densities of wealth and sophistication. Even here in decidedly un-metropolitan New Zealand, the big cities seem to predominate. A scan of the list of NZIA National Awards reveals the dominance of Christchurch, Wellington, and (particularly) Auckland; places like Gisborne, Russell, or Levin rarely make the list. It is hard to know whether this is because of a lack of architectural ambition among small town architects, or because their important opportunities are usually snaffled by big city design firms; Aucklanders often complain about Aussies jetting in to snatch plum commissions, but seem not to hesitate at getting on a plane to Queenstown or Paraparaumu to pick up projects. Rotorua is one of the many provincial cities in New Zealand where civic architecture has largely been created by those that don’t live there. In Rotorua, this was exaggerated by the peculiar role outside authorities, particularly the central government, have played in its development – it was unique in the Commonwealth in being a government-controlled town. -

Identity and Whakapapa a Curriculum for the Gifted Maori Child Melinda
Identity and Whakapapa A curriculum for the gifted Maori child Melinda Webber, Faculty of Education, University of Auckland. Abstract: The importance of identifying and nurturing the gifts and talents of all tamariki in Aotearoa is widely accepted in education circles. The continued under-representation of Maori students in Gifted and Talented programmes indicates the need to ensure our understandings about the way children learn, and the corresponding curriculum content, reflect Maori conceptions, values and practices. Research shows that cultural practice, tribal structures and whakapapa are all significant in the development of Maori identity (Durie, 2002; Murchie, 1984; Broughton, 1993; Moeke-Pickering, 1996). Where Maori children are encouraged to use their own whanau/hapu/tribe as a starting point for better understanding what giftedness means for both their cultural and educational lives, they will feel empowered to embrace the gifts they possess and use them to progress educationally, culturally and spiritually. This paper presents a story from a classroom teacher of Ngati Whatua descent regarding his teaching philosophy for Ngati Whatua tamariki. I then suggest a curriculum centred on Ngati Whakauue whakapapa as a model for potential programmes for gifted and talented learners within the Rotorua area. Ko wai au? Why is it important I start with this? Who I am today, is determined by those who have come before me. I am a product of my history and whakapapa. One cannot be separated from the other. My personal, ethnic and professional identities stem from my whakapapa. It strengthens me. It empowers me. ¾Ki te taha o toku papa. ¾Te Arawa te iwi ¾Ngati Whakaaue te hapu ¾Ngongotaha te maunga ¾Maketu te moana ¾Tunohopu te marae ¾Tamatekapua te tangata ¾No Ohinemutu me Rotorua aku Turangawaewae Ki te taha o toku mama. -
