    Centenary of the Rapaki Church Page 1 Centenary of the Rapaki Church The Lord is in His Holy Temple, Let all the earth keep silence He is not far from any one of us. Let us come and bow down And worship Him. Kei roto i tona Whare Tapu te Atua, Kia Marie tonu te ao katoa Kei to tatou taha tonu the Atua Haereinai kia whakapiko kia whaka pono Tatou kite Atua. Introduction At the request of the people of Rapaki I have set down in this Brochure, the founding of our settlement of Rapaki and the Rapaki Reserve, the circumstances leading up to the appointment of a Maori Wesleyan Minister to reside at Rapaki; the building of the Church, the Centennial of which, we are celebrating; a short biography of the Rev. Te Kooti Rato, and other Maori Ministers who followed him in the South Island: also reference to other Ministers and Laymen both Maori and Pakeha who conducted services in the church down through the years. The names of some of the Maori people who lived at Rapaki at the time the church was opened and up to the last decade. The narrator regrets if some names have been overlooked. I have also set down some of the Maori place names and legends commemorating our ancestors. I have to thank Mr Jim Lewin, District Officer, Maori Affairs Department and many others who gave me information contained in this Brochure.

A sure sign the general election campaigns are well underway for Saturday 20 September 2014. Polling booths will be open on Saturday 20 September, but anyone can vote in advance from Wednesday 3 September. If you’re not going to be in your electorate or can’t get to a voting place on election day, the easiest way to vote is in advance. Information about where, when and how to vote in advance is available from www.elections.org.nz. Information on voting in advance will also be in your EasyVote information pack, which you will receive about a week before election day. Voting in advance in your electorate is easier than casting a special vote. Here at the Lyttelton Harbour Review we think harbour residents would like to know more about the local people standing for the Port Hills Electorate, so we have asked a number of questions for the candidates to answer. We have not edited any answers, and answers from candidates will appear as they have answered the question. We have restricted each answer to 150 words. Representing the Political Parties for Port Hills Electorate: Chris Brosnan Eugenie Sage Ruth Dyson Nuk Korako Port Hills Electorate Today the Port Hills electorate comprises of Banks Peninsula, Lyttelton, Sumner, Mount Pleasant, Woolston, Opawa, Cashmere, Halswell and Oaklands.

II ABSTRACT Three site investigations for residential development on the Port Hills gave a chance to document remedial measures in volcanic bedrock (McCormacks Bay) and cut and fill operations in loess (Westmorland), and to carry out detailed logging and index testing, as well as strength testing in loess (Westmorland and Coleridge Tce). A design-as-you-go approach was adopted for remedial measures in blast-damaged volcanic bedrock at McCormacks Bay Quarry Subdivision because of potential difficulties in obtaining· detailed sub-surface information. Remedial measures included: (a) removal of loose blocks, (b) reinforced concrete buttressing, (c) a gabion basket retaining wall, and (d) a vegetation programme. Engineering geological mapping and face logging are important for delineating and subdividing rock and soil units, as well as active and inactive areas of erosion and slope instability. Geotechnical testing programmes, remedial measures and earth works should only proceed after completion and interpretation of engineering geological plans, sections and face logs. Index tests carried out on loess from Westmorland and Coleridge Tce included: (a) grainsize distribution, (b) Atterberg limits, (c) insitu dry density and moisture content, (d) pinhole erosion, and (e) the crumb test for clay dispersion.
