Typesetting by Artspec. Text by Jennifer Jones. Cover Design & Layout by Barrie Eady. 3 ‘On Our Way” is the story of Methodism in the Hutt Valley seen against a background of social change which has continuously affected the past 150 years. The book starts in pre-European times and traces the arrival of various waves of settlers and their attempts to set up churches in their new home. The eleven authors have researched widely over the past two years and provided an insight often lacking in chronological works. Generously illustrated and indexed, this book is a worthwhile addition to the historical records of the people of Lower Hutt. Pitt Henrich, designer and maker of the Pulpit Fall depicted on the cover of I this book, speaks of her work in this way — “This church wanted me to show how their work as Methodists with a tradition of social concern could go out from the church in the Hutt Valley to people everywhere.

  • Hutt Valley Housing Announcement
    Q&A – Hutt Valley housing announcement What is being announced today? Housing New Zealand is going to build and refurbish more than 700 houses in the Hutt Valley over the next five years. This is made up of: New builds – up to 330 homes Building 30 homes in Naenae, Taita and Waterloo at a cost of about $9.5 million - construction underway Commencing master planning for up to 300 homes across four Lower Hutt sites in Epuni and Naenae are being explored (will be a mix of social, affordable and market). Refurbishment – 383 homes Investing around $67.3 million to retrofit 323 homes across large buildings and 60 standalone or single houses in the Hutt Valley to make them warm and dry and bring them up to standard Why now? The Hutt Valley is a growing community where there has been a significant increase in demand for social housing over the last 18 months. The removal of older buildings for fire damage or earthquake risk provides an opportunity to respond to this demand, while also increasing the overall supply of housing and driving urban regeneration, like the development in Pomare. Housing New Zealand’s Hutt Valley stock is also amongst the oldest in its portfolio across the country. The refurbishment programmes will renew these homes to ensure Hutt Valley’s social housing tenants live in warm, dry and fit-for-purpose homes. How much is this costing? Project Cost 30 homes on four vacant sites in About $9.5 million Naenae, Taita and Waterloo Up to 300 potential homes across four To be confirmed by master plan Lower Hutt sites 383 homes to be retrofitted to make $67.3 million: made up $61 million for them warm and dry, and bring them 323 units in large buildings, and a up to standard further $6.3 million for 60 standalone homes/units in smaller buildings New builds programme Where are the four initial development sites, what kinds of homes is Housing New Zealand building, and when will the homes be completed? Site works are commencing immediately at four sites in Lower Hutt to provide 30 new social houses at a cost of around $9.5 million.

  • Distribution of Geological Materials in Lower Hutt and Porirua, New Zealand a Component of a Ground Shaking Hazard Assessment
    332 DISTRIBUTION OF GEOLOGICAL MATERIALS IN LOWER HUTT AND PORIRUA, NEW ZEALAND A COMPONENT OF A GROUND SHAKING HAZARD ASSESSMENT G. D. Dellow1 , S. A. L. Read 1 , J. G. Begg1 , R. J. Van Dissen1 , N. D. Perrin1 ABSTRACT Geological materials in the Lower Hutt, Eastbourne, Wainuiomata, and Porirua urban areas are mapped and described as part of a multi-disciplinary assessment of seismic ground shaking hazards. Emphasis is mainly on the flat-lying parts of these areas which are underlain by variable Quaternary-age sediments that overlie Permian-Mesowic age 'greywacke' bedrock. Within the Quaternary-age sediments, the two material types recognised on strength characteristics are: 1) Soft sediments, typically composed of normally consolidated, fine-grained materials (sand, silt and clay), with typical standard penetration values (SPT) of <20 blows/300 mm; and 2) Loose to compact coarser-grained materials (sand, gravel), with SPT values of > 20 blows/ 300 mm. The total thickness and nature of Quaternary-age sediments in the study areas is described, with particular emphasis on the thickness and geotechnical properties of near-surface sediments. Such sediments are considered likely to have a significant influence on the an1plification and attenuation of ground shaking intensity during earthquakes. In the Lower Hutt valley, near-surface soft sediments greater than 10 m thick have an areal extent of -16 kni. Such soft sediments underlie much of Petone and the Lower Hutt urban and city centres, and have a maximum known thickness of 27 m near the western end of the Petone foreshore. In the Wainuiomata area, near-surface soft sediments greater than 10 m thick have an areal extent of - 3 krn2, and attain a maximum thickness of 32 m.

  • Wainuiomata Central Place Name Origins
    WainuiomataCentralPlaceNames.docx WAINUIOMATA CENTRAL PLACE NAME ORIGINS This document is about the origin of the names of various features of Central Wainuiomata on the flat area such as houses, parks and suburb names. It excludes road and street names. Wainuiomata is named after the big water or stream of Mata. Wai means water. Nui means big. O means of. Mata refers to a woman's name Roimata. This is an official version. The origins of the word are disputed and other commonly accepted translations are: - Refers to the women living in the now Hutt Valley who came over the Wainuiomata Hill to evade marauding tribes. These tribes in about 1819 were carrying muskets that came north from the Paremata area. In the battle the local tribes were said to have been destroyed. The Paremata Maoris came across the remaining women who were sitting wailing by the stream after the slaughter of their menfolk. From this we have “faces streaming with water”, “tears” or “weeping water”. - Refers to the large pools of water which lay over the swampy surface of the northern end of the Valley, or the river itself which is known to flood the Coast Road / Wainuiomata Valley. From this it can also mean large river from the swamp. - Refers to the whitebait that are present at the mouth of the river. Mata means whitebait. From this we have big river of whitebait. - Refers to flint or obsidian which is hard rock found in the headwaters of the river. - Refers to the origin and personification of water. The area for the purposes of this document covers is from the head of the Wainuiomata River to the mouth where it enters the sea at the Wainuiomata Coast and its tributaries.
