  • Boat Preference and Stress Behaviour of Hector's Dolphin in Response to Tour Boat Interactions
    Boat Preference and Stress Behaviour of Hector’s Dolphin in Response to Tour Boat Interactions ___________________________ A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy By Georgia-Rose Travis ___________ Lincoln University 2008 Abstract of a thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Ph.D. Boat Preference and Stress Behaviour of Hector’s Dolphin in Response to Tour Boat Interactions by Georgia-Rose Travis Dolphins are increasingly coming into contact with humans, particularly where tourism is involved. It has been assumed that such contact causes chronic stress on dolphin populations. This study examined relatively naive populations of Hector's dolphins and their interaction with various watercrafts. Dolphins in New Zealand have been observed using theodolites and boat-based observations over the last two decades, particularly on the east side of the South Island at Akaroa, which is situated on the coast line of Banks Peninsula. This research was undertaken using shore-based theodolite tracking to observe boat activity around the coast of Lyttelton and Timaru and their associated Harbours. Observations were made mostly over two periods each of six months duration and included the months October through to March during the years 2000-2001 and 2001-2002. Observations made during a third period in 2005 were also incorporated for some of the analyses. Field investigations using a theodolite included more than 376 hours/site/season and recorded dolphin behaviour both with and without the presence of tour boats. Of primary interest were the tours, which ran regular trips to observe Cephalorhynchus hectori in their natural habitat.

  • Report on Archaeological Monitoring
    11KV STAGE 4, PORT OF LYTTELTON, LYTTELTON: REPORT ON ARCHAEOLOGICAL MONITORING HNZPT AUTHORITY 2015/600EQ LUKE TREMLETT, MARIA LILLO BERNABEU AND LYDIA MEARNS UNDERGROUND OVERGROUND ARCHAEOLOGY LTD MAY 2017 UNPUBLISHED REPORT FOR LYTTELTON PORT COMPANY INTRODUCTION As part of a post-earthquake repair and upgrade of the Lyttelton Port facilities, trenching was carried out in the port for an 11kV infrastructure roll-out. Stage 4 of these works involved the excavation for a substation at 7 Norwich Quay and a 50 m trench from 7 Norwich Quay southeast to the Oxford Street overbridge in November 2016 (Figure 1). This work was carried out under Heritage New Zealand authority 2015/600, as it had the potential to affect seven recorded archaeological sites. As per condition 2 of this authority, and in accordance with ‘LPC CEMP Guidelines Archaeology Technical Chapter’, these earthworks were monitored by an archaeologist. This report outlines the results of the monitoring, during which several archaeological sites were exposed. Figure 1. Lyttelton, showing the location of 7 Norwich Quay.

HISTORY OF THE PORT1 Formed from the remnants of an extinct volcano, Lyttelton harbour has been the site of human activity for over 800 years (Rice 2004:14). Prior to European settlement the harbour was known as Whakaraupō, or harbour of raupō (Burgess th 2009:7). The first occupants of the area were Waitaha, followed by Ngāti Mamoe in the 16 century (Anderson 1998:22-23). For Ngāti Mamoe the area surrounding Lyttelton, which they named Ōhinehou, was a mahinga kai.

  • Former Governors Bay School and School Master's House – 112 Main Road, Governors Bay
    DISTRICT PLAN – LISTED HERITAGE PLACE HERITAGE ASSESSMENT – STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE FORMER GOVERNORS BAY SCHOOL AND SCHOOL MASTER'S HOUSE – 112 MAIN ROAD, GOVERNORS BAY 112 Main Road, Governor’s Bay is a rare example of Canterbury’s early school buildings, dating from the Provincial Government period and used as a school complex continually for 95 years. The place includes the former school and former school master’s house and setting. These two buildings sit upon their original site, although this has been reduced in size over the years. The former Governor’s Bay school was constructed in the period when the provision and administration of public education was managed by regional Boards of Education which had been created by the Provincial Government in 1853-1854. At this time New Zealand had a small, thinly-scattered population and transport networks, particularly in isolated areas like Banks Peninsula, were poor. The Canterbury Board of Education was the principal means of realizing the primary educational needs of the region and many small schools were constructed in rural locations such as Governor’s Bay making it possible for children to receive an education. The boundaries of the Governor’s Bay Education District were proclaimed in 1864 and three years later, after a meeting of local residents, it was decided to form the Governor’s Bay North Education District. Thomas Henry Potts, a prominent Canterbury pioneer and Governor’s Bay landholder gifted land for the school complex from his estate ‘Ohinetahi in 1867 and classes were conducted in a cottage in the grounds at Ohinetahi from 1868 while the school was being constructed.

  • Lyttelton Harbour Review “ Community News from Port Lyttelton to Port Cooper
    “ lyttelton harbour review “ community news from port lyttelton to port cooper www.lytteltonharbour.info 14 October 2013 E102 Banks Peninsula Councillor Announced Election Night Celebrations not Premature After All After a couple of tense days the final election results for the Banks Peninsula Ward have been announced. Congratulations to Andrew Turner who has been nominated the new Banks Peninsula Councillor with a margin of just five votes from challenger Nuk Korako. With the seat coming down to the wire, it does go to show that every vote really does matter. The Review team congratulates voters for having the highest voter turnout in the city elections and for really engaging in this local election. Andrew’s win means that Ann Jolliffe now joins the Lyttelton Mount Herbert Community Board team of Paula Smith, Adrian Te Patu, Christine Wilson and Jane Broughton. Naturally speaking with Andrew his mood is optimistic and he’s really excited about the term ahead. He tells us that already the new council team have been meeting and there is a feeling of a very different approach to the way the council will operate over the next term. He talks excitedly about the great ideas some of the new members have. “This will be a great team who are motivated for real change. We want the new Christchurch to be the best place for people it can possibly be. The old city wasn’t perfect. This is our once in a life time chance to make things so much better”. We chat over a series of questions that reflect on what the new priorities will be for him, what democracy might look like, what business as unusual looks like and we get a few glimpses of Andrew when he’s not doing community work.
