  • The Early History of New Zealand
    THE LIBRARY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA LOS ANGELES *f Dr. T. M. Hockkn. THE EARLY HISTORY OF NEW ZEALAND. BEING A SERIES OF LECTURES DELIVERED BEFORE THE OTAGO INSTITUTE; ALSO A LECTURETTE ON THE MAORIS OF THE SOUTH ISLAND. By The Late Dr. T. M. Hocken. WELLINGTON, N.Z. JOHN MACKAY, GOVERNMENT PRINTER. I9I4. MEMOIR: DR. THOMAS MORLAND HOCKEN, The British nation can claim the good fortune of having on its roll of honour men and women who stand out from the ranks of their fellows as examples of lofty patriotism and generosity of character. Their fine idea of citizenship has not only in the record of their own lives been of direct benefit to the nation, but they have shone as an example to others and have stirred up a wholesome senti- ment of emulation in their fellows. There has been no lack of illustrious examples in the Motherland, and especially so in the last century or so of her history. And if the Motherland has reason to be proud of her sons and daughters who have so distinguished themselves, so likewise have the younger nations across the seas. Canada, South Africa, Aus- tralia, New Zealand, each has its list of colonists who are justly entitled to rank among the worthies of the Empire, whose generous acts and unselfish lives have won for them the respect and the gratitude of their fellows ; and, as I shall hope to show, Thomas Morland Hocken merits inclusion in the long list of national and patriotic benefactors who in the dominions beyond the seas have set a worthy example to their fellows.

The sites are all prominent headlands – Katiki (Moeraki peninsula), Matakaea (Shag Point) and Huriawa (Karitane Peninsula) – strategic strongholds occupied by Maori for hundreds of years. Archaeological evidence of occupation dates back to the 12th Century. Since the Käi Claims Settlement Act of 1998, all three sites are managed in partnership between the Department of Conservation and Te Runanga o Käi Tahu. The Crown also formally recognised Matakaea’s special cultural, spiritual and historic significance of matakaea for Käi Tahu, by designating it as a topuni. In the southern Kai Tahu dialect, The concept derives from the Käi Tahu tikanga (custom) of rangatira (chiefs) ‘ng’ is often replaced by ‘k’.

  • Karitane's Contribution to Public Health in New
    INTRODUCTION: KARITANE’S CONTRIBUTION TO PUBLIC HEALTH IN NEW SOUTH WALES 1923-2000 Karitane is a society incorporated in NSW that commenced operation as the Australian Mothercraft Society (AMS) Plunket System in 1923, and become the Karitane Mothercraft Society (KMS) in 1970. Like the Plunket Society in New Zealand that it was modelled after, Karitane’s activities have always been connected with assisting mothers in the care and feeding of their babies. Karitane is an unusual name for an organisation in New South Wales (NSW); not immediately identifiable with either Australia’s British heritage or its Aboriginal culture. Some people in New South Wales will know that the name hails from a small peninsula on the coast of Otago in New Zealand’s South Island and may even identify it with Sir Truby King. The King family had a holiday cottage at Karitane and the name was adopted for the mothercraft homes set up by New Zealand’s Plunket Society in the main towns.1 Thesis and rationale This thesis is about Karitane’s part in the history of public health in NSW from the perspective of the development of mother and baby welfare services, an area of concern for the State’s public health authorities throughout the twentieth century. It examines how and why Karitane, a voluntary organisation, developed its services in NSW from 1923 to 2000; what did Karitane contribute to mother and baby welfare in that period? The main justification for the study was a paucity of information about Karitane in the literature on the development of mothercraft services in NSW.

  • Isolating Madness: Photographs from Seacliff Lunatic Asylum, 1887-1907
    Isolating Madness: Photographs from Seacliff Lunatic Asylum, 1887-1907 Elizabeth Laing For my mum, thank you for taking me to the museum. A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Art History Victoria University of Wellington 2014 For my mum, thank you for taking me to the museum. Acknowledgements This thesis would not have been possible without the access granted by the Southern District Health Board, and the assistance of staff from the Archives New Zealand branch in Dunedin. I would particularly like to acknowledge Vivienne Cuff, who ably facilitated my research during my visits to the reading room, and patiently responded to all of my subsequent enquiries. As an agreed condition of access, I have concealed the identities of the patients discussed by using pseudonyms. I would like to sincerely thank my supervisor, Geoffrey Batchen, whose conversations and steadfast support inspired this thesis in countless ways. I hope that it meets with his approval. Abstract Frederic Truby King (1858-1938) is an eminent figure in New Zealand history. His name continues to flourish in contemporary society, due in part to its affiliation with the Royal New Zealand Plunket Society. However, the general populace is still relatively unaware of the time that King spent employed as the medical superintendent of Seacliff Lunatic Asylum, on the remote outskirts of Dunedin. The prevailing image of King during this period is of a single-minded physician, whose career was in a state of acceleration towards the establishment of Plunket.

  • The Working Life of Thomas Ferens 1848 – 1888
    “The Southern World is my Home”: The Working Life of Thomas Ferens 1848 – 1888 Peita Ferens-Green March 2018 Word Count: 40,664 Contents Abstract 2 List of Figures 3 Acknowledgements 4 Introduction 6 Chapter One: Religious Influences, Intercultural Relationships and Examination of the ‘Self’, 1848 – 1851 25 Chapter Two: Pastoral Pursuits, 1852 – 1871 59 Chapter Three: A Mixed Slice of Life, 1872 – 1888 84 Conclusion 108 Bibliography 114 1 Abstract This thesis is a case study of Thomas Ferens, a Methodist lay preacher from England. Utilising personal testimony, it follows his life in New Zealand from 1848 – 1888, focussing upon his various occupational pursuits to explore how his sense of ‘self’ affected his migrant experience, analysing how he navigated life in the settlement, and how he was influenced by the world around him. Typically, migrant scholars using personal testimony focus on those of a (literate) middle to upper class status. A focus on Ferens, however, provides a working-class perspective. He similarly offers a perspective on Methodists in the Scottish Presbyterian Otago settlement. This work engages with studies of missionaries, religion in New Zealand, intercultural relations and constructs of self/other. It also addresses the impact of runholding and declaration of hundreds in North Otago and the need for personal mobility, both geographical and occupational, in this early period of settlement. 2 List of Figures Figure 1 Thomas Ferens; photograph, n.d.

During the July school holidays Orokonui Ecosanctuary ran a competition aimed at children, giving them the opportunity to name the first kaka chick to be born in the wild in east Otago since the 1920’s at the Ecosanctuary.

With near to 200 entries, staff were thrilled with the great ideas that flooded in. Phyllis Smith kindly offered to help by judging the competition which she admitted was not an easy task.
