From the President WPA Annual General Meeting Sunday 4 October September 2015 Upcoming Dates to Note in Your Diary Now!

For the indicative WPA Programme for the year, see page 7, Pottery Classes page 8 From the President Elections for the WPA Committee The AGM is being held at 2:30 pm on Sunday 4 October at the rooms. The AGM is once-a-year meeting open to all club members. The president reviews the year, the treasurer presents the accounts, and then we elect a new committee. Interested in getting on the committee? The club runs on the goodwill of volunteers, and we are always looking to introduce new faces to the committee. Serving on the committee is not daunting or onerous. It involves attending a monthly evening meeting, sharing ideas and helping to plan the club’s various activities. The meetings can be stimulating and sociable. You do not have to be a top potter or a long-time member, and you don’t need special skills or experience. You just need to be willing. I am going to stand down as president, so we are looking for someone new to take on the role. In addition to the president, there are three other officers to elect at the AGM – vice-president, treasurer and secretary – plus six committee members. So please think about standing for the committee. If you are interested, get in touch with someone on the current committee and have a chat about it (contact details at end of newsletter). Then come along to the AGM, have your say, and put your name forward! Empty Bowls You’ll be able to read elsewhere in this newsletter about the Empty Bowls project. It was a wonderful success. At the launch at Moore Wilson’s, bowls were snapped up in no time. The entire Moore Wilson’s stock went within hours and we had to get more bowls in. Thanks to everyone who made bowls or helped out. And a special thank you to Rebecca Flowerday who was the inspiration and driving force behind it all. Well done Rebecca! Anagama The anagama firing is coming up soon! If you are new to pottery or new to the club, I highly recommend getting up to Horokiwi during the firing to check things out. It’s amazing!

Upstairs Space at the WPA Rooms Upstairs at the Rooms we have a couple of free spaces that can be used by members who wish to have a dedicated area for their work. It is available for rent for a 6-month period, when it will be reviewed. The charge is $20 a month. We offer: • a quarter share of the bench space on the window side • a quarter share of the bench space on the opposite side • a shelf at the end of the room, and a share of the shelves above the bench • space for hand building and storage, but not for a wheel. There is no running water. • There are some guidelines for good management – keeping the walk-through passageway clear, making sure the area is left clean & tidy, etc. Existing users – please reapply if you wish to be considered for the next period. If this interests you, please contact [email protected] by 4 September 2015. Deliveries at the Rooms We have been having some problems with deliveries at the rooms. Some of the carriers have not met the conditions of the contract. If you are at the rooms when a load of clay arrives, please don't sign for it unless you are authorised to. (This doesn't apply to small parcels, but to bulk deliveries). 2015 Empty Bowls Project Those Potters who made it to the Empty Bowls 2015 Launch at Moore Wilson's, Wellington City, were rewarded by the public enthusiasm for our bowls. Local Potters from around the region, including Wairarapa, Porirua and Otaki, made a great contribution with a total of 950 bowls finally being made and gratefully received! With 1.5 weeks to go, and more than 800 bowls being sold to date, over $16,000 has been raised so far for the Downtown Community Ministry. Moore Wilson have sold out of the bowls but there are still bowls in the Cafes of Wellington to be found. Please let all people you know to get in quick and purchase their bowls now. Those who have been involved with this project, from making, glazing and firing of the bowls to fettling and distribution of them should be very proud of what you've been able to contribute and achieve as a community. Not only has it raised money for the 2 charity organisation but also raised the profile of Potters and Pottery around the regions. There is a website for Empty Bowls - http://www.emptybowls.org.nz/ - that is up and running and has a list of those Potters who have contributed this year. To make sure that everyone is acknowledged and to get a handle on the size of the contribution around the regions, could you please send through your name, if you have contributed in any way. Rebecca will be updating the website at the end of the month, so please email your name to [email protected] . From the Wellington Potters Association Committee and the Downtown Community Ministry, a very big thank you. Bowls can still be purchased for $20 each at: • Thunderbird Cafe - Featherston Street • HAYA Cafe - Aro Valley • Strathmore Gipsy Kitchen – Strathmore • All Kapai Cafes • Karaka Cafe - on the Te Aro Lagoon • Little Peckish - Willis Street Arcade Anagama Ablaze Wednesday 9 September marks the beginning of the 11th Anagama firing. There has been a flurry of preparatory activity readying the kiln for its latest adventure. In the past month Maurice and Carolyn Bennett, Roger Pearce, Mal Sole, Peter Rumble, Shige Ohashi and Graeme Houston have all contributed. All is now in readiness for the firing: • The brick props used for supporting the kiln roof formers, used for repairing the roof, have been removed and stacked; • Silt from the flood that graced the floor of the kiln has been removed; • The wood is stacked; • The shelves have been cleaned; • Maurice & Carolyn Bennett on Stacking Additional rock buttressing is in place; Duties • The slip that contributed to the kiln being flooded has been partially removed; and • Anagama glazes prepared. Installing the additional rock buttressing was a challenging exercise with Mr Rumble exhibiting previously unseen physical prowess in lifting and manoeuvring the often heavy rocks into place under the direction of a demanding Mr Ohashi. The rocks were obtained by Graeme Rockers - Shige Ohashi & Peter Rumble from the Horokiwi Quarry. As access to the far side of the kiln was restricted because of the stacks of firewood, a bridge across the kiln’s firing pit was built. This comprised a stack of pallets atop of which was a sheet of plywood. A trolley was used to carry the larger rocks. For me trolley techniques learned in moving heavy bales of wool in wool stores came flooding back! Rock Providor - Graeme Houston There has been an excellent response to the invitation for people to 3 assist in loading and firing the kiln. At the time of writing a total of 40 people had volunteered to participate as firing shift leaders and members. Timetable: Steps Dates Receiving Day: Pots received at the rooms Sunday 30 August (Upstairs) from 10am - 3pm. Transport pots to kiln Sunday 30 August Load kiln Tuesday 1 – Sunday 6 September Fire kiln Wednesday 9 – Sunday 13 September Cool kiln Monday 14 – Saturday 19 September Unload kiln & BBQ: 11:30 am. All members are Sunday 20 September invited. Anagama glazes, prepared by Mal Sole assisted by Megumi Ogo, are now available at the rooms. For those who are new to Anagama firings, it is a matter of choice as to whether you use such glazes. Anagama purists often don’t as the process of firing the kiln generates its own natural ash glaze. It really is a matter of personal choice. As you will see from the timetable, the pots are unloaded on Sunday 20 September. This event is accompanied by a BYO barbeque to which all members are invited. The pots are generally available for collection at the kiln site (476 Horokiwi Road, signposted “Te Haunui”) about 2 – 2 ½ hours after the kiln has been opened. Those pots that are not collected will be transported to the rooms as soon as possible after the firing.

  • TE ARA O NGA TUPUNA HERITAGE TRAIL MAIN FEATURES of the TRAIL: This Trail Will Take About Four Hours to Drive and View at an Easy TE ARA O NGA TUPUNA Pace
    WELLINGTON’S TE ARA O NGA TUPUNA HERITAGE TRAIL MAIN FEATURES OF THE TRAIL: This trail will take about four hours to drive and view at an easy TE ARA O NGA TUPUNA pace. Vantage points are mostly accessible by wheelchair but there are steps at some sites such as Rangitatau and Uruhau pa. A Pou (carved post), a rock or an information panel mark various sites on the trail. These sites have been identified with a symbol. While the trail participants will appreciate that many of the traditional sites occupied by Maori in the past have either been built over or destroyed, but they still have a strong spiritual presence. There are several more modern Maori buildings such as Pipitea Marae and Tapu Te Ranga Marae, to give trail participants a selection of Maori sites through different periods of history. ABOUT THE TRAIL: The trail starts at the Pipitea Marae in Thorndon Quay, opposite the Railway Station, and finishes at Owhiro Bay on the often wild, southern coast of Wellington. While not all the old pa, kainga, cultivation and burial sites of Wellington have been included in this trail, those that are have been selected for their accessibility to the public, and their viewing interest. Rock Pou Information panel Alexander Turnbull Library The Wellington City Council is grateful for the significant contribution made by the original heritage Trails comittee to the development of this trail — Oroya Day, Sallie Hill, Ken Scadden and Con Flinkenberg. Historical research: Matene Love, Miria Pomare, Roger Whelan Author: Matene Love This trail was developed as a joint project between Wellingtion City Council, the Wellington Tenths Trust and Ngati Toa.

  • Forecast Fertility Rates (Births Per Woman)
    The number of births in Wellington City are derived by multiplying age specific fertility rates of women aged 15-49 by the female population in these age groups for all years during the forecast period. Birth rates are especially influential in determining the number of children in an area, with most inner urban areas having relatively low birth rates, compared to outer suburban or rural and regional areas. Birth rates have been changing, with a greater share of women bearing children at older ages or not at all, with overall increases in fertility rates. This can have a large impact on the future population profile.

  • Northern Mount Victoria Historical Society Walking Guide Tour (Alan Middleton- Olliver)
    Northern Mount Victoria Historical Society Walking Guide Tour (Alan Middleton- Olliver) Captain C.W. Mein Smith's original map "Plan of the Town of Wellington, Port Nicholson, 14 August 1840" For the New Zealand Company established the basic street structure for Mount Victoria. Whereas southern Mount Victoria was an extension of the Te Aro flat grid street pattern, the steepness of the land in northern Mount Victoria, dictated some alteration to the grid pattern. The original streets of the suburb were Majoribanks, Pirie and Ellice in the east west direction, Brougham and Austin Streets and Kent Terrace in the north south direction, with Roxburgh, Mcfarlane, and Hawker streets and Clyde Quay in the northern area. The map also shows the proposed canal route along to the Basin and Hawker street going over the hill and joining onto Oriental Terrace, now Oriental Parade. Approximately 36 acres were surveyed and defined in the northern area. Initial building development was haphazard as some acres had been purchased by land speculators. Thomas Ward's 1891 Survey of Wellington map shows the number of streets and pedestrian lanes in Mount Victoria had increased from 10 to 27, and by 1933 there were 47. Studying the Street maps and examining the Wises Directories gives a good indication of the development of the streets. These streets were at varying widths, including pedestrian lanes, and resulted from the haphazard subdivision of the original acres and the peculiarities of local topography. Some streets began as small private pedestrian lanes, which were only taken over by the Council at a much later date.

  • Te Aro Park, Actions Taken to Date and Potential Solutions
    Executive Summary This report outlines safety concerns within Te Aro Park, actions taken to date and potential solutions. The numbers of events associated with social harm, occurring within the park are consistently higher in Te Aro Park than other central city parks. In order to improve safety within Te Aro Park the report outlines a number of options to address these issues, which have been categorised into projects for possible implementation over short, medium and long term and are outlined below. Short Term - as at January 2020 • Increased maintenance of the park – inclusion of Te Aro Park in the Central City Cleaning contract. • Removal of the canopy between the two toilet blocks and addition of directional lighting. • Lighting changes o If the canopy between the two toilets is not removed, additional lighting should be installed. o Vertical lighting should be installed on the Opera House side to improve night-time flow and a more defined route. o Lighting should also be added to the murals on the toilet building to increase attention to the artwork. o Lights should be added to the canopy of the Oaks building o Canopy lighting should be added to the tree. • Remove Spark phone booth as it creates blind spots and concealments. • Installing pedestrian crossings into both Manners and Dixon street to improve safe access to the park • Increase patrols to the Te Aro Park area during the hours of high activity and high social harm - this includes Police, Local Hosts and Maori Wardens • Improve guardianship of the park by involving businesses and other stakeholders in activity that occurs within the park, with central coordination from Council and intentional place-making Medium Term • Recognise and acknowledge the cultural significance of the park with interpretive signage and revitalise the park into more of a destination.

  • WADESTOWN SCHOOL Community Newsletter
    WADESTOWN SCHOOL Community Newsletter Principal: Sally Barrett Website: www.wadestown.school.nz Thursday, 22 August 2019 Dear Parents On Thursday 8th August the staff and Wadestown School Whanau Group met for a Hui in the school hall. We enjoyed a fantastic professional development session with the Whanau Group. All our students will be learning the Wadestown School Pepeha which was developed at this hui and it appears below for your information. A special thank you go to Fiona McHardy, Huia Forbes, Fiona Shrapnell and Robin Paratene from the Whanau Group for facilitating this session and to our lead teachers of Te Reo Amber Pullin and Nicki Greer for arranging this very successful Hui. Update from the Whanau Group Tenā rā koutou katoa ngā whānau whānui o Wadestown Kura, On 8 July, Te Roopu Whanau (the Wadestown school whanau group) enjoyed sharing examples of personal pepeha with the school staff, and in return school staff shared their personal pepeha with the group. A pepeha is a statement of identity. It is a tribal saying and how Māori introduce themselves on the marae or in a formal setting, yet it is a formula that can be used by all people. A pepeha recites the whakapapa or genealogy of a person. The whanau group has suggested the following very simple ‘Wadestown School Pepeha’ as an important way for students, staff and whanau to collectively introduce themselves when representing Wadestown School. It is not intended to replace any personal pepeha, but provides a way for all Wadestown School whanau to connect with each other and others in this important way.
