Hi Tung Jung Members Trust this newsletter finds you all well. In the past few months in Wellington, we have experienced a huge storm with wind gusts exceeding the Wahine storm and causing much damage and disruption to our city. On top of this we were hit with a number of earthquakes which really shook us up and left us wondering when the proverbial Big One would come. It was however good for the supermarkets because everyone stocked up on bottled water, candles, canned foods, batteries and torches. OK for some? Midwinter Seniors’ Yum Cha In June the Association held a Midwinter Seniors Yum Cha at Dragon Restaurant. It was well attended by over 60 members.

  • Mission Film Script-Word
    A thesis submitted to Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the research requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Creative Writing. 8 November 2002, revised April 2016 Sophia (Sophie) Charlotte Rose Jerram PO Box 11 517 Wellington New Zealand i 1 Mission Notes on storv and location This film is set in two locations and in two time zones. It tells a story concerning inter-racial, same-sex love, and the control of imagemaking. A. The past story, 1828-1836 is loosely based on the true story of New Zealand Missionary William Yate and his lover, Eruera Pare Hongi. It is mostly set in Northland, New Zealand, and focuses on the inland Waimate North Mission and surrounding Maori settlement. B. The present day story is a fictional account of Riki Te Awata and an English Photographer, Jeffrey Edison. It is mostly set in the community around a coastal marae and a derelict Southern Mission.1 Sophie Jerram November 2002 1 Unlike the Waimate Mission, this ‘Southern Mission’ is fictional. It was originally intended to be the Puriri mission, at the base of the Coromandel Peninsular, established by William Yate in 1834. Since the coastal mission I have set the film in is nothing like Puriri I have dropped the name. i EXT. PORT JACKSON 1836, DAY A painted image (of the John Gully School) of the historical port of Sydney fills the entire screen. It depicts a number of ships: whaling, convict and trade vessels. The land is busy with diverse groups of people conducting business: traders, convicts, prostitutes, clergymen.

  • Navigating the Waka of Māori Community Development
    New Zealand Journal of History, 49, 1 (2015) Navigating The Waka Of Māori Community Development PANGURU, ‘THE MAORI AFFAIRS’ AND ANTHROPOLOGY IN THE 1950S BETWEEN 1954 AND 1957, THE PEOPLE OF PANGURU in North Hokianga participated in a community development experiment administered by the Department of Maori Affairs. The Panguru Community Development Pilot Project, as it was officially named, was initiated by John Booth, the first anthropologist employed by the department.1 The project signalled an experimental policy shift away from individualistic ‘land development’ to collective ‘people development’. Although the project was a one-off, ‘tri-anthropological’ engagement was not new; throughout the early and mid-twentieth century, anthropology established a role in determining the pace and shape of the state’s assimilation policy, as well as in Māori efforts to revitalize tribal economies. The Panguru project provides a unique window into Māori negotiations with anthropology and the state. At the heart of this complex interaction was a clash of world views about what a ‘modern Maori community’ could and should have been in the 1950s. Although the state increasingly managed the processes of assimilation within the frame of modernity, such a view was peripheral if not irrelevant to the people of Panguru. Their participation in the project highlights how the leaders and people of Panguru took advantage of what they believed were the most beneficial features of the project. They sought control of their land, resources and economic futures, as well as access to modern technology and ideas. Examining their experience shows how Māori people – at both community and national levels – worked with the state and New Zealand’s emergent anthropological community, and negotiated anthropological theory in order to achieve divergent goals in the mid-twentieth century.

  • Natural Areas of Aupouri Ecological District
    5. Summary and conclusions The Protected Natural Areas network in the Aupouri Ecological District is summarised in Table 1. Including the area of the three harbours, approximately 26.5% of the natural areas of the Aupouri Ecological District are formally protected, which is equivalent to about 9% of the total area of the Ecological District. Excluding the three harbours, approximately 48% of the natural areas of the Aupouri Ecological District are formally protected, which is equivalent to about 10.7% of the total area of the Ecological District. Protected areas are made up primarily of Te Paki Dunes, Te Arai dunelands, East Beach, Kaimaumau, Lake Ohia, and Tokerau Beach. A list of ecological units recorded in the Aupouri Ecological District and their current protection status is set out in Table 2 (page 300), and a summary of the site evaluations is given in Table 3 (page 328).
