    LINZEY | Making a Place: Mangakino 1946-62 | AHA: Architectural History Aotearoa (2008) vol 5:65-71 Making a Place: Mangakino 1946-62 Kate Linzey, Interior Design, Weltec, Wellington ABSTRACT: In between Whakamaru (1949-56) and Maraetai (1946-53) dams, on the Waikato River, sits Mangakino. Planned and built from c1948 to 1951, by the Town Planning section of the Ministry of Works, the civic centre was to provide housing and services for the work force on the Maraetai scheme. The architectural design of these dams has previously been discussed as the work of émigré architect, Fredrick Neumann/Newman (Leach), and the town, as that of Ernst Plischke (Lloyd-Jenkins, Sarnitz). In 1949 the plan for Mangakino was published, alongside the plan for Upper Hutt, in the February-March edition of the Design Review. As two "rapidly growing towns," Upper Hutt and Mangakino are briefly reviewed in the context of two essays ("Who wants community centres?" and "Community Centres" by HCD Somerset), an outline of the curriculum of the new School of Architecture and Town Planning, run by the Architectural Centre, and notification of the 1948 Town Planning Amendment Act. As published in the Design Review, the plan of Mangakino includes a church in the south west, with the sporting facilities to the north and Rangatira Drive flanking a shopping strip on the east. The church sits in a field of grass, isolated and apparently serene. In the drawing published in the monograph Ernst Plischke, however, this building has been cropped off. Focusing on the case of Mangakino, this essay will review the discourse of town planning for secular and religious communities in the late 1940s.

  • Where Is Taupo? It Is Situated at the North-Eastern Part of Lake Taupo, at the Outlet Where It Flows Into the Waikato River
    Taupo in New Zealand Taupo is located on the shores of New Zealand’s largest lake – Lake Taupo Taupo is a riverside town unhurried by the bustle of everyday life; where the day begins with the serene gurgling of a large freshwater lake, and nights end with bonfires. It is an urban paradise where worries float away in the waters of the clear blue Lake Taupo, the town’s patron lake. Things to Do in Taupo With a variety of water bound activities like jet boating, water skiing, kayaking, whitewater rafting, and world-class fishing, the adventurist will never get bored in this town. Set sail to history in ancient Maori rock carvings at Mine Bay, which can only be seen from the water. Or, lie in wait as you cast the bait for some of the finest trout at Turangi, the largest natural trout fishery in the world. Even if you are more of a land mammal, this resort town has plenty to offer you. Take a walk down the Craters of the Moon, which takes you down a mythical world of colorful soils, steam vents, and explosive bubbling craters. This also tells you the story of Lake Taupo’s fiery birth in the geysers and boiling mud pools. As you walk north of Lake Taupo, be awed by the magnificent Huka Falls, and watch 220,000 liters of water thundering off a cliff every second. This is New Zealand’s most popular tourist attraction. Explore the Tongariro National Park filled with 80,000 hectares of hot springs, emerald lakes and alpine meadows.

  • Te Wairua Kōmingomingo O Te Māori = the Spiritual Whirlwind of the Māori
    Copyright is owned by the Author of the thesis. Permission is given for a copy to be downloaded by an individual for the purpose of research and private study only. The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. TE WAIRUA KŌMINGOMINGO O TE MĀORI THE SPIRITUAL WHIRLWIND OF THE MĀORI A thesis presented for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in Māori Studies Massey University Palmerston North, New Zealand Te Waaka Melbourne 2011 Abstract This thesis examines Māori spirituality reflected in the customary words Te Wairua Kōmingomingo o te Maori. Within these words Te Wairua Kōmingomingo o te Māori; the past and present creates the dialogue sources of Māori understandings of its spirituality formed as it were to the intellect of Māori land, language, and the universe. This is especially exemplified within the confinements of the marae, a place to create new ongoing spiritual synergies and evolving dialogues for Māori. The marae is the basis for meaningful cultural epistemological tikanga Māori customs and traditions which is revered. Marae throughout Aotearoa is of course the preservation of the cultural and intellectual rights of what Māori hold as mana (prestige), tapu (sacred), ihi (essence) and wehi (respect) – their tino rangatiratanga (sovereignty). This thesis therefore argues that while Christianity has taken a strong hold on Māori spirituality in the circumstances we find ourselves, never-the-less, the customary, and traditional sources of the marae continue to breath life into Māori. This thesis also points to the arrival of the Church Missionary Society which impacted greatly on Māori society and accelerated the advancement of colonisation.
