In 1995 I completed a Post­ Graduate Diploma in Humanities, and in 1996 completed an M.A. in History at Massey University.

    4.8.3 Indigenous forest on the range and plateaus The Kaimai forests were included in the National Forest Survey (NFS) of indigenous timber resources of 1946-55. The southern half of the ranges was systematically sampled in 1946-48 and the northern half sampled less intensively in 1951-52. These data were used for the compilation of forest type maps (Dale and James 1977). The northern ranges were further sampled by the Ecological Forest Survey in 1965-66, to provide data for more detailed ecological typing. Descriptions of vegetation composition and pattern on the range and plateaus are provided by Dale and James (1977), Clarkson (2002), and Burns and Smale (2002). Other vegetation maps are provided by Nicholls (1965, 1966a&b, 1967a&b, 1971a&b, 1974a, 1975). Further descriptive accounts are provided by Nicholls (1968, 1969, 1972, 1976a&b, 1978, 1983a-c, 1984, 1985a&b, 2002). Beadel (2006) provides a comprehensive overview of vegetation in the Otanewainuku Ecological District and also provides vegetation descriptions and vegetation type maps for privately-owned natural areas within the tract, such as at Te Waraiti and the Whaiti Kuranui Block. Humphreys and Tyler (1990) provide similar information for the Te Aroha Ecological District. A broad representation of indigenous forest pattern is provided in Figure 9. Tawa and kamahi (Weinmannia racemosa) with scattered emergent rimu and northern rata dominates forests on the Mamaku Plateau (Nicholls 1966, Smale et al. 1997). Rimu increases in abundance southwards across the plateau, as the contribution of coarse rhyolitic tephra to soils increased (Smale et al. 1997). Beeches (Nothofagus spp.) (beeches) are present locally on the plateau (Nicholls 1966).

A Christmas Saga A poem by Doreen Delves, Matamata Writers group 1939/40 1In9 t4h2e/ m43orning as always it will be Christmas Day. Last night, with my sister, I slept in my bed. Out they come, all the gifts and a woollen siren suit, Snug and warm, firelight flames dancing over my head. An apple and orange, odds and ends small but cute. I was told Father Christmas will visit good girls, I’m trying to sleep but my heads in a whirl. Dad’s sock lies quite flat, mine was thought quite too small. Last night, with my sister, I slept in my bed. I look out for someone quite fat but quite tall. Like a ‘cage’, flat metal top and grills on the edge. The very next morning, it’s only just light, A Morrison shelter now sits pride of place, 1O9u4r 0so/c4k1 s are quite bulging, oh what a sight! Whose first in has the warmest part, it’s a race. I pull out a rabbit with his red velvet suit, Poor Santa will wonder what’s going on, An apple and orange, odds and ends small but cute. Hope he finds us all right in our ‘cage’ oh so strong. We can dance on the top and practise our part. 1T9on4i3g/h4t 4for the first time we make the mince tarts. Last night, with my sister, I slept in my bed. Sweets for the first time, sherbet suckers so beaut, That we are down on the floor just inside the door.
