  • Lansdowne.Pdf
    Lansdowne Pre 1909 26th February 1906 The residents of Lansdowne intend making an appeal to the Wellington Education Board for the erection of a school within that district, and at present a petition is in circulation for signatures. It is urged that there are approximately one hundred children of, or near, school age and that with either the school at Masterton or at Te Ore Ore, the distance is fairly long, and the roads and bridges crossed are much used for stock traffic and therefore dangerous. A suggestion is made that the Te Ore Ore school, in a district where settlement is not progressing and with the school attendance consequently on the decrease, should be transferred to a central position at Lansdowne. The matter is being taken up heartily by Lansdowne residents. 30th April 1906 At the meeting of the Education Board, last week, a petition from parents and guardians of children, asking that a school be established at Lansdowne, was considered The memorial contained the names and other particulars of children within school age. The number being over 80, while an almost equal number was given of children under 5 years. It was decided to refer the application to the Inspectors and the Masterton School Committee 11th May 1906 TE ORE ORE SCHOOL. Suggested Removal to Lansdowne Sub Committee Appointed to Make Enquiries. The advisableness of removing the To Ore Ore School from its present site was discussed at the meeting of the Masterton School Committee, last evening, when a letter was received from the Education Board asking the Committee's opinion on an application received from a number of residents at Lansdowne for the erection of the school in that district.

  • Environmental Education Department Report – June 2007
    Attachment 1 to Report 07.360 Page 1 of 40 Geoff Skene Manager, Environmental Education Environmental Education Department Report – June 2007 1. Take Action 1.1 Environmental projects by term one and two schools The schools that have been working on Take Action in the first two terms are continuing their work to implement environmental changes. Queen Margaret students have prepared a script for a radio advertisement with help from our Communications Department. They have done a waste audit and are trialling a recycling scheme in the junior and middle classes. At Canon’s Creek school, the planting of a mäori medicinal community garden has gone ahead. St Patrick’s School (Masterton) students have completed a clean up of their school stream and are working on an extension for their worm farm. They are investigating options for collecting rainwater from the roof to water the school’s garden. They will undertake planting with the Henley Lake care group next term. At Wainuioru, this school of around 50 pupils is taking a very active approach. The students have created a compost heap for their organic waste and are working on a worm farm as well. Part of the grounds has been set aside for an organic garden with the aim of eventually selling the produce at the Masterton Farmers Market in the spring. We have set up a shade house on site with the intention being that the school will join the Trees for Survival programme when a sponsor can be found. Students are collecting seed from a nearby location to be propagated in the shade house and eventually replanted in the bush from which it came.

  • Infrastructure Strategy
    Masterton District Council Infrastructure Strategy Our 30 year strategy 2018 - 2048 Masterton District Council June 2018 ASSET MANAGEMENT DEPARTMENT 1 1. Context 1.1 The place - Masterton (Whakaoriori) - Wairarapa. Wairarapa is said to have been named by the Maori explorer Haunui as he stood on a peak in the Remutaka Range, looking down over the extensive valley. As he looked, the sun sparkled on the waters of the rivers and lakes, and he called the area Wairarapa-Glistening Waters. The land was settled by successive waves of Maori. By the time Captain Cook became the first European to see Wairarapa in 1770, members of the Rangitane and Kahungunu iwi were the tangata whenua of Wairarapa. During the disruption caused by the Musket Wars many Wairarapa Maori left the district for sanctuary of Hawke Bay and the East Coast, returning following ten years exile in 1841. They set about rebuilding their villages and re-establishing their cultivations on their traditional sites. Sites near Masterton included Kaikokirikiri near today's Mahunga golf course; Mangaakuta, at Homebush, and Kaitekateka at Te Ore Ore. In 1841 the first European explorers were also making their way through the interior of the valley, searching for grazing areas for the recently arrived Wellington settlers. By the late 1840s the first large run holders were established, leasing their substantial holdings from local Maori, grazing their stock on largely unaltered pasture. In 1853, a group of Wellington and Hutt Valley workingmen, led by cooper Joseph Masters, formed the Small Farms Association, and petitioned Governor Grey for land upon which to establish their settlement.
