Hopefully, this means more people will be out and about enjoying our beautiful walking tracks. Unfortunately some vandalism or an accident resulted in the breakage of one of our ‘Tui Trails’ signs, which has now been replaced. We were saddened to hear of the death of Keith Thomson. On behalf of the ‘Tracks’ committee I would like to extend sincere condolences to Keith’s wife Marlene and the rest of Keith’s family. The district has lost a deeply valued citizen. It was Keith who spent countless hours nurturing young regenerating fern and other native varieties to create a prolific, attractive undergrowth in the track area which bears his name- ‘Keith Thomson’s Walk’. It was lovely that Keith, along with Ngarita Dixon, could unveil the track signs honouring their names, in 2018. Ngarita was a McLeod prior to her marriage to Bill Dixon and her family resided very close to the present ‘McLeod’s Track’. Unfortunately, due to the Covid Lockdown and the difficulty in meeting with the appropriate personnel - the production of a map and pamphlet on the ‘Tui Trails’ was put on hold. The wheels are back turning again and a draft copy of each will be available very soon for perusal. Following on from this will be the installation of storyboards at intervals along our tracks, featuring pertinent information related to history etc. We are also planning on installing bird feeders at appropriate locations.

  • Travel Report 2016-01-8-13 Tuatapere
    8.1.2016 Tuatapere, Blue Cliffs Beach As we depart Lake Hauroko a big herd of sheep comes across our way. Due to our presence the sheep want to turn around immediately, but are forced to walk past us. The bravest sheep walks courageously in the front towards our car... Upon arriving in Tuatapere, the weather has changed completely. It is very windy and raining, so we decide to stop at the Cafe of the Last Light Lodge, which was very cozy and played funky music. Afterwards we head down to the rivermouth of the Waiau and despite the stormy weather Werner goes fishing. While we are parked there, three German tourists get stuck with their car next to us, the pebbles right next to the track are unexpectedly soft. Werner helps to push them out and we continue our way to the Blue Cliffs Beach – the sign has made us curious. We find a sheltered spot near the rivermouth so Werner can continue fishing. He comes back with an eel! Now we have to research eel recipes. 1 9.1.2016 Colac Bay, Riverton The very strong wind has blown away all the grey clouds and is pounding the waves against the beach. The rolling stones make such a noise, it’s hard to hear you own voice. Nature at work… Again we pass by the beautiful Red Hot Poker and finally have a chance to take a photo. We continue South on the 99, coming through Orepuki and Monkey Island. When the first settlers landed here a monkey supposedly helped to pull the boats ashore, hence the name Monkey Island.

  • Primary Health Care in Rural Southland
    "Putting The Bricks In place"; primary Health Care Services in Rural Southland Executive Summary To determine what the challenges are to rural primary health care, and nlake reconlmendations to enhance sustainable service provision. My objective is to qualify the future needs of Community Health Trusts. They must nleet the Ministry of Health directives regarding Primary Healthcare. These are as stated in the back to back contracts between PHOs and inclividual medical practices. I have compiled; from a representative group of rural patients, doctors and other professionals, facts, experiences, opinions and wish lists regarding primary medical services and its impact upon them, now and into the future. The information was collected by survey and interview and these are summarised within the report. During the completion of the report, I have attempted to illustrate the nature of historical delivery of primary healthcare in rural Southland. The present position and the barriers that are imposed on service provision and sustainability I have also highlighted some of the issues regarding expectations of medical service providers and their clients, re funding and manning levels The Goal; "A well educated (re health matters) and healthy population serviced by effective providers". As stated by the Chris Farrelly of the Manaia PHO we must ask ourselves "Am I really concerned by inequalities and injustice? We find that in order to achieve the PHO goals (passed down to the local level) we must have; Additional health practitioners Sustainable funding And sound strategies for future actions through a collaborative model. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY PAGE 1 CONTACTS Mark Crawford Westridge 118 Aparima Road RD 1 Otautau 9653 Phone/ fax 032258755 e-mail [email protected] Acknowledgements In compiling the research for this project I would like to thank all the members of the conlmunity, health professionals and committee members who have generously given their time and shared their knowledge.

  • Whatever Happened to Tuatapere? a Study on a Small Rural Community Pam Smith
    Whatever happened to Tuatapere? A study on a small rural community Pam Smith Pam Smith has worked in the social work field for the past 25 years. She has worked with children and families within the community both in statutory and non-government organisations. She has held social worker and supervisor roles and is currently a supervisory Team Leader at Family Works Southland. This article was based on Pam’s thesis for her Master of Philosophy in Social Work at Massey University. Abstract Social workers working in the rural community do so within a rural culture. This culture has developed from historical and cultural influences from the generations before, from the impact of social and familial changes over the years and from current internal and external influences. These changes and influences make the rural people who they are today. This study was carried out on a small rural community in Western Southland. The purpose was to examine the impact on the community of social changes over the past 50 years. Eight long-term residents were interviewed. The results will be discussed within this article. Introduction Government policies, changes in international trade and markets, environmental policies, globalisation, change in the structure of local and regional government and legislative changes, impacted on all New Zealanders during the past 50 years. The rural hinterland of New Zealand was affected in particular ways. The population in rural communities has been slowly decreasing over the years as ur- banisation has been a reality in New Zealand. Services within the area have diminished and younger families have moved away to seek employment elsewhere.

  • Waste Options in Rural Southland
    Waste Options in Rural Southland armers have always been great at giving new life to old materials, but there is plenty Fmore that can be done to improve waste management on the farm. Southland has a variety of waste facilities ranging from recycling centres where people freely drop off recyclables to waste transfer stations that accept household and commercial rubbish. Rural Refuse Collection Rural properties have several options for rubbish collection. Private contractors that offer collection services are listed in the yellow pages under ‘Waste Disposal’ and ‘Recycling’. However it could be just as easy to take your rubbish/recycling to the nearest transfer station, or recycling to your local recycling centre. Waste Transfer Stations Waste Transfers Stations are for the disposal of rubbish, greenwaste (garden waste), scrap metal recyclables, pre-loved materials and small quantities of hazardous chemicals. Some fees do apply. • Lumsden Transfer Station, 35 Oxford Street, Lumsden • Otautau Transfer Station, 5 Bridport Road, Otautau • Riverton Transfer Station, 1 Havelock Street, Riverton • Gore Transfer Station, Toronto Street, Gore • Invercargill Waste Transfer Station, 303 Bond Street, Invercargill • Bluff Transfer Station, 75 Suir Street, Bluff • Wyndale Transfer Station, 190 Edendale Wyndham Road, Edendale • Winton Transfer Station, 193 Florence Road, Winton • Te Anau Transfer Station, Te Anau Manapouri Highway, Te Anau Recycle Drop-off Centre There are recycle drop-off centres located throughout the district for household recyclables.
