Prepare to be surprised as these mysterious islands yield up their secrets. Landscapes with volcanic peaks thrusting up out of rolling peatland, towering sea cliffs, the vast expanse of Te Whanga, endless kilometres of sandy beaches and the ever-present ocean. Situated in the South Pacific Ocean, about 800km east of Christchurch, the Chatham Islands are New Zealand’s most easterly region. An archipelago of 11 islands, only Pitt and Chatham are inhabited, by about 600 people. Meet the Chatham Islanders: people who remain true to themselves while extending warm hospitality to visitors. Visit heritage sites and learn of our fascinating history shaped by years of isolation: Moriori, Maori, sealers, whalers, missionaries, farmers and other settlers. The rich diversity of plant and bird life make the Islands important to conservation nationally and internationally. The Islands support 20% of New Zealand’s threatened bird species, many of which are on world lists, and 11% of its threatened plants. Although some are protected on island sanctuaries, you can readily find others in bush, on roadsides and beaches. View the Chatham Island magenta petrel or taiko, mollymawk (albatross), royal albatross, parea (pigeon), tui, red-crowned parakeet, warbler and oyster catcher. Walk through our forests, expansive wetlands and conservation areas and see for yourself the beautiful endemic plants - the Chatham Islands forget-me-not, aster, akeake, koromikos and rautini or Christmas Tree. This eastern-most outpost of Zealandia also reveals some of the oldest rock formations dating back to Gondwana. Venture to Pitt Island, even more remote and surprisingly different from Chatham Island. Walk up Mt Hakepa to the first inhabited place in the world to welcome the new day. Enjoy a day fishing for famous Chatham Islands blue cod and hapuka. Then relax and absorb the peace and tranquillity of the Chatham Islands. Discover the Chatham Islands – history, heritage and nature. Holidays don’t get much better than this. 2 Splatter or Taniwha Rock — pillow lava formation Road h Nort Waitangi township map enlargement d North Roa Tikitiki Hill Waitangi d Bay a o oad R enga R i w k O Ti f r Tiki ha W i ng a it a W 1 orth Road N vw Kahunene 2 Waitangi 3 5 4 6 7 8 9 gape Creek Road Man ad Tuku Hi 16 aitangi o W g 10 h rf Owenga Road e tal R i 15 t 17 P Waitangi Wha la osp 11 H ce 14 12 H o spit a 13 l Road Maipit o Road Waitangi Tuku Road 18 W ek aitangi W Cre pe d a Kapito Roa h Chatham ang arf Owenga Roa M Islands Golf Club d 1 Commercial Fishing Area, Fish Factory 2 Hotel Chathams 3 Bank, Cafe 4 5 6 Forgetmenot Suites Police Station Chatham Islands Museum 7 Travellers Rest 8 General Store, Hardware 9 Bayview 10 Hospital 11 Catholic Church 12 Liquor Store 13 Black Robin Homestay 14 Fuel, Grocery Store 15 Chatham Cottage Gifts, Fire Station, Works Depot 16 Chatham Islands Rentals 17 Norman Kirk Memorial, The Den, Racecourse, Netball Courts 18 Cemetery W d aita n u Roa k gi W h arf Owenga Waitangi Tu Contents Road Porua Creek History 4 k Further Information 5 Attractions 8 Artists 16 Pitt Island 18 Transport 20 Accommodation 22 Tour Operators 27 Retail & Services 30 Chatham Island Magenta Petrel or Taiko 3 History A brief history of the Chatham Islands The Chatham Islands were settled over 800 years ago by the Polynesian ancestors of the Moriori people. They were the last of the major Pacific Islands to be settled. Moriori made a conscious decision to set aside warfare and killing and to live in peace. This is known today as Nunuku’s Law named after the spiritual leader, Nunuku Whenua who laid down the covenant of peace over 600 years ago. That covenant remains unbroken by Moriori to this day – a world record for peace keeping! They named their island home Rēkohu, meaning ‘misty skies’, after the mist that sometimes clings to the land. Europeans arrived in 1791 and found the Islands already inhabited by Moriori. Nevertheless, Lieutenant Broughton “claimed” the Islands in the name of King George III, and renamed the main Island ‘Chatham’ after his ship HMS Chatham. European settlement dates from the early 1800’s with sealers, then whalers and farmers. Ngati Tama and Ngati Mutunga arrived in 1835 and made these islands their home. They named the main Island ‘Wharekauri’. Today the peoples of these three cultural groupings, with their unique identities and heritage, live together on this remote outpost; these people are the Chatham Islanders.

  • Memory Work on R ¯Ekohu (Chatham Islands) Kingsley Baird
    Memory Connection Volume 3 Number 1 © 2019 The Memory Waka Hokopanopano Ka Toi Moriori (Reigniting Moriori Arts): Memory Work on R ¯ekohu (Chatham Islands) Kingsley Baird Hokopanopano Ka Toi Moriori (Reigniting Moriori Arts): Memory Work on R ¯ekohu (Chatham Islands)—Kingsley Baird Hokopanopano Ka Toi Moriori (Reigniting Moriori Arts): Memory Work on R ¯ekohu (Chatham Islands) Kingsley Baird Abstract Since European discovery of Re¯kohu (Chatham Islands) in 1791, the pacifist Moriori population declined rapidly as a result of introduced diseases (to which they had no immunity) and killing and enslavement by M¯aori iwi (tribes) from the New Zealand ‘mainland’ following their invasion in 1835. When (full-blooded) Tame Horomona Rehe—described on his headstone as the ‘last of the Morioris’— died in 1933, the Moriori were widely considered to be an extinct people. In February 2016, Moriori rangata m¯a tua (elders) and rangatehi (youth), artists and designers, archaeologists, a conservator and an arborist gathered at Ko¯ pinga Marae on Re¯kohu to participate in a w¯a nanga organized by the Hokotehi Moriori Trust. Its purpose was to enlist the combined expertise and commitment of the participants to hokopanopano ka toi Moriori (reignite Moriori arts)—principally those associated with r¯a kau momori (‘carving’ on living ko¯ pi trees)—through discussion, information exchange, speculation, toolmaking and finally, tree carving. In addition to providing a brief cultural and historical background, this paper recounts some of the memory work of the w¯a nanga from the perspective of one of the participants whose fascination for Moriori and the resilience of their culture developed from Michael King’s 1989 book, Moriori: A People Rediscovered.

  • Timaru District Economic Development Strategy 2015-2035
    Timaru District Economic Development Strategy 2015-2035 1 Introduction Timaru is an area of enviable lifestyle and business opportunity. Located in the centre of the South Island it is a gateway to some of New Zealand’s most pristine and visited natural attractions. It is on the doorstep to the largest population centre in the South Island – Christchurch and surrounds. Timaru District, which is the economic hub of South Canterbury, has a population of 44,000 and has a higher than average standard of living when compared to the rest of New Zealand. (The broader are of South Canterbury has a population of 54,000, and includes the Timaru, Waimate and Mackenzie Districts, between the Rangitata and Waitaki rivers.) The elected leaders of Timaru District have expressed a strong and visionary desire to maintain, or even increase, this standard of living through stimulating and supporting sustainable business growth over the long term. This, they believe, will enhance and build on the lifestyle opportunities that are on offer in Timaru District leading to a much stronger (and more self-determining) future profile for the area. This strategy has been developed in consultation with the elected members of Timaru District Council and the directors of the Aoraki Development Business and Tourism (ADBT). While many of the actions are currently underway this strategy provides a ‘new direction’ which pulls together these and a number of new actions all heading towards the same goal. This strategy was adopted by Timaru District Council in February 2015 and is now available for public feedback. Notes: 1.

  • Title: Timaru's District Wide Sewer Strategy Author
    Title: Timaru’s District Wide Sewer Strategy Author: Ashley Harper, Timaru District Council Abstract: Timaru’s District Wide Sewer Strategy Key Words: Wastewater Strategy, Working Party, Community, Oxidation Ponds, Wetlands, Trunk Sewers, Tunnels Introduction The Timaru District has four main urban areas, namely Timaru, and the inland towns of Geraldine, Pleasant Point and Temuka, with each of these areas having a traditional piped sewer network. The total population served within these urban areas is 40,000. #:872456 Since 1987 Timaru’s wastewater had been treated via a 0.5 milliscreening plant and associated ocean outfall, while each of the three inland towns utilised oxidation ponds and river discharge as the wastewater treatment and disposal process. In 1996 the Timaru District Council initiated a review of the respective wastewater treatment and disposal strategies, primarily because of emerging environmental and regulatory issues. Council supported a community based approach to identifying a preferred strategy, noting that the strategy needed to be robust and viable and to recognise the unique nature of the Timaru District’s effluent. Compliance with proposed environmental standards was a non negotiable requirement. Wastewater Working Party The community based approach involved the appointment of an experienced facilitator (Gay Pavelka) and the formation of a Wastewater Working Party in 1997. Membership of the working party was made up of representatives of the following organisations: Timaru District Council Community Boards

  • Farmers' Market – a Community
    April 2016 Farmers’ Market – a community hub At a recent Project Wairarapa workshop to nurture resilience and sustainability in our town, I joined interested parties from all backgrounds to nut out ideas, create a framework, and construct an informed plan. We left on a high (too much coffee?) feeling we’d done our bit for the town. It was reassuring to feel the love in the room for the Farmers’ Market and its role in a resilient community and it left me thinking about its future. To date we have grown, overcome obstacles and tried new ideas with an overall goal merely to exist. But what are our core goals and what is our mission? After much contemplation I realised that the market should be about developing a hub – somewhere people can go to share their day. The market isn’t only for stallholders, regular customers or passing visitors. It’s a community event. We love that people can come for many reasons – make or spend some cash, speak on the Toastmasters stand to discuss issues important to them Roger Clarke yarns with Kevin and Jill Shipp at Carterton’s Farmers’ Market. or have a community stall to raise funds or awareness for Photo Don Farr. local causes; even just for somewhere to grab a coffee and say hi to others. We will continue to work with the Project Wairarapa team. Although the Farmers’ Market offers something for everyone within the community, resilience is not just about having food and supplies in an emergency – it also ensures that people interact, and know and support one another.
