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?

  • Māori Land and Land Tenure in New Zealand: 150 Years of the Māori Land Court
    77 MĀORI LAND AND LAND TENURE IN NEW ZEALAND: 150 YEARS OF THE MĀORI LAND COURT R P Boast* This is a general historical survey of New Zealand's Native/Māori Land Court written for those without a specialist background in Māori land law or New Zealand legal history. The Court was established in its present form in 1865, and is still in operation today as the Māori Land Court. This Court is one of the most important judicial institutions in New Zealand and is the subject of an extensive literature, nearly all of it very critical. There have been many changes to Māori land law in New Zealand since 1865, but the Māori Land Court, responsible for investigating titles, partitioning land blocks, and various other functions (some of which have later been transferred to other bodies) has always been a central part of the Māori land system. The article assesses the extent to which shifts in ideologies relating to land tenure, indigenous cultures, and customary law affected the development of the law in New Zealand. The article concludes with a brief discussion of the current Māori Land Bill, which had as one of its main goals a significant reduction of the powers of the Māori Land Court. Recent political developments in New Zealand, to some extent caused by the government's and the New Zealand Māori Party's support for the 2017 Bill, have meant that the Bill will not be enacted in its 2017 form. Current developments show once again the importance of Māori land issues in New Zealand political life.

The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. i ‘Defending the High Ground’ The transformation of the discipline of history into a senior secondary school subject in the late 20th century: A New Zealand curriculum debate A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Education Massey University (Palmerston North) New Zealand (William) Mark Sheehan 2008 ii One might characterise the curriculum reform … as a sort of tidal wave. Everywhere the waves created turbulence and activity but they only engulfed a few small islands; more substantial landmasses were hardly touched at all [and]…the high ground remained completely untouched. Ivor F. Goodson (1994, 17) iii Abstract This thesis examines the development of the New Zealand secondary school history curriculum in the late 20th century and is a case study of the transformation of an academic discipline into a senior secondary school subject. It is concerned with the nature of state control in the development of the history curriculum at this level as well as the extent to which dominant elites within the history teaching community influenced the process. This thesis provides a historical perspective on recent developments in the history curriculum (2005-2008) and argues New Zealand stands apart from international trends in regards to history education. Internationally, curriculum developers have typically prioritised a narrative of the nation-state but in New Zealand the history teaching community has, by and large, been reluctant to engage with a national past and chosen to prioritise English history.

Note gardener. [1] Right: The NZ Kauri Agathis australis, named Tane Mahuta (Lord of the Forest), in the Waipoua Forest is the largest known in NZ. Photo: Prof. Chen Hualin, CC BY-SA 4.0, zh.wikipedia.org Kauris (Agathis sp.) are conifers Conifers, along with the other Gymnosperms (Cycads and Ginkgoes), first appeared about 300 Ma (Million years ago) at the end of the Carboniferous when the world’s coal deposits were being laid down with the remains of the spore-producing trees of that period. The early conifers looked like modern Araucaria. These trees spread throughout the world and displaced their predecessors. The age of the seed plants had arrived. The conifers are a hardy lot. They survived the largest mass extinction the earth has known, 252 Ma, at the end of the Permian Period. But more challenges lay ahead. Sometime in the next 50 Myr (Million years) one of Gymnosperms gave rise to the flowering plants, the Angiosperms. By 100 Ma, in the Cretaceous period, Angiosperms were widespread. And so the battle began - and still continues to this day. The flowering plants have many features that make them more successful in many environments, so their take-over of many habitats was complete by about 65 Ma at the end of the age of the dinosaurs. But in the world’s harsh environments the conifers continue to not just survive, but flourish.

  • 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).

  • Internal Assessment Resource History for Achievement Standard 91002
    Exemplar for internal assessment resource History for Achievement Standard 91002 Exemplar for Internal Achievement Standard History Level 1 This exemplar supports assessment against: Achievement Standard 91002 Demonstrate understanding of an historical event, or place, of significance to New Zealanders An annotated exemplar is an extract of student evidence, with a commentary, to explain key aspects of the standard. These will assist teachers to make assessment judgements at the grade boundaries. New Zealand Qualification Authority To support internal assessment from 2014 © NZQA 2014 Exemplar for internal assessment resource History for Achievement Standard 91002 Grade Boundary: Low Excellence For Excellence, the student needs to demonstrate comprehensive understanding of an 1. historical event, or place, of significance to New Zealanders. This involves including a depth and breadth of understanding using extensive supporting evidence, to show links between the event, the people concerned and its significance to New Zealanders. In this student’s evidence about the Maori Land Hikoi of 1975, some comprehensive understanding is demonstrated in comments, such as why the wider Maori community became involved (3) and how and when the prime minister took action against the tent embassy (6). Breadth of understanding is demonstrated in the wide range of matters that are considered (e.g. the social background to the march, the nature of the march, and the description of a good range of ways in which the march was significant to New Zealanders). Extensive supporting evidence is provided regarding the march details (4) and the use of specific numbers (5) (7) (8). To reach Excellence more securely, the student could ensure that: • the relevance of some evidence is better explained (1) (2), or omitted if it is not relevant • the story of the hikoi is covered in a more complete way.
