    Preparing For The Sesquicentennial (150th) Anniversary Commemoration Of The Battle Of O-Rãkau (March 31st - April 2nd 1864) HOSTED BY THE BATTLE OF O-RÃKAU HERITAGE SOCIETY INC O-Rãkau Battlefield, Arapuni Road, Kihikhi Tuesday 1st & Wednesday 2nd April 2014 Kupu Whakataki Introduction He reo pōwhiri e karanga ana i te takiwā Nau mai,piki mai,haere mai. Haere mai. e ngā iwi e ngā reo e ngā waka. Whakatata mai ki te papa i mura ai i te ahi, i pakū ai ngā pū, i hinga ai ngā tupuna. E whakatau ana i a koutou ki runga i te papa o te Parekura o O-Rãkau. Nau mai haere mai. April 1st 2014 is the day we have set aside to come together to remember, to honour and to give substance to the legacy left behind by those who fought and fell at O-Rãkau from March 31st to April 2nd 1864. That battle which saw so much carnage and death, which became a turning point in the history of the Waikato and Auckland provinces and indeed the entire Nation. After 150 years, it is now time for us to take a breath, and to meditate on how far we have come and how much further there is yet to go before we can with honesty say, we are honouring the sacred legacy left in trust to this country by so many whose lives were sacrificed upon the alter of our nationhood. Those who fell at O-Rãkau, Rangiaowhia, Hairini, Waiari, Rangiriri in the Waikato war, lest we forget also the War in the North, the East Cape, Waitara, Whanganui, South and Central Taranaki, Hutt valley and Wairau in the South Island.

  • Long Term Plan
    Long Term Plan Consultation2021-2031 Document 10 years in 10 points… Waipā is adjusting to the impacts of the global COVID-19 pandemic, and economic 1 and social recovery will be a huge focus for us long-term. Ensuring Waipā is an affordable place to live, work, play and invest is one of the 2 biggest challenges facing our district in the next 10 years. Waipā continues to grow fast and to cater for growth we must have 3 infrastructure like pipes and roads. But to keep debt levels within limits and rates affordable, we’ve had to adjust the timing of some growth projects. Like other councils, our district is also facing a raft of big issues like managing climate change, effective delivery of water and wastewater services, and 4 managing ageing infrastructure. These issues impact heavily on our activities and priorities for the next 10 years. Our debt will increase significantly as we build new infrastructure to cater for growth and deliver the projects we’ve identified in the plan. We’re funding this 5 work from debt to ensure the cost is spread fairly between current and future ratepayers. Despite the challenges ahead, we will keep investing in our towns, community 6 projects and facilities so Waipā remains vibrant and a fantastic place for people to live and visit A huge chunk of work will be creating a ‘spatial plan’ - or ‘blueprint’ - for Waipā that sets out our plan of action for where and how we should grow and develop 7 over the next 30 years. It will include land use, transportation, three waters infrastructure, community infrastructure, heritage, and the environment.

  • The Waikato War of 1863-64 a Guide to the Main Events and Sites
    The Waikato War of 1863-64 A guide to the main events and sites Neville Ritchie About historic battlefields There have been numerous wars and skirmishes on New Zealand soil between Maori groups prior to European settlement, and the colonial wars between Maori and European forces. Each battle affected the history and development of this nation to varying degrees and, in many instances, left tangible evidence on the landscape such as Maori pa, European fortifications and cemeteries. Historic battlefields evoke strong emotions of patriotism, sacrifice, valour, brutality and humanity. Unfortunately, the evidence of past battlefields is disappearing as urban development and modern farming practices modify the landscapes that dictated troop manoeuvres and positions, and ultimately, the outcomes of bat- tles, campaigns, and wars. It is important to protect and interpret battlefields and sites that influenced the course of our history, and to raise awareness of the importance of preserving them for future generations. The author Dr Neville Ritchie is the Department of Conservation's Waikato Conservancy archaeologist and is based in Hamilton. His previous works include Coromandel Gold, written in conjunction with Phil Moore. Acknowledgements Other DOC staff have contributed to the text and production of this booklet, notably (the late) Owen Wilkes, Bruce Postill, Des Williams and Bev Taylor. The Te Awamutu Museum assisted with historical information and allowed photo- graphs in their collection to be reproduced. Eris Parker of the Cambridge Mu- seum provided information about sites around Cambridge. My thanks to Waikato kaumatua, Buddy Te Whare and Tui Adams for commenting on the text from a Maori perspective.
