  • IBSC Conference Book FINAL.Pub
    We are grateful to the Lindisfarne College Council, staff, students and parents for planning and coordinating the event, and in particular we extend our special thanks to the Conference Steering Committee who have worked extremely hard to ensure the success of the 2009 conference. Left to right Back Row: Campbell Howlett, Rob Jackson, Rob Hay, Ian Findlay, Darren Brown Front Row: Glen Petersen, Anne Averill, Murray Richardson, Grant Lander, Kay Jackson, Matt Allen, Suzette Mayes. Absent: Roger Anderson, Reimana Johnson, Mason Summerfield, Rod Dowling. Dear Friends The boys’ schools of New Zealand, and in particular Lindisfarne College, take great pleasure in welcoming you to this the Sixteenth Annual Conference of the International Boys’ Schools Coalition. We have put together an exciting programme on the theme of ‘Windows into Manhood’, which brings together the ‘Best Practice’ in working with boys from New Zealand and indeed, the rest of the world. A great group of keynote speakers and workshop presenters will give us an opportunity of celebrating the best of boys. In allowing New Zealand and the province of Hawke’s Bay to host this conference, the Trustees of the IBSC have allowed delegates an opportunity of sampling the delights of one of the world’s most beautiful countries. Although not a big country, New Zealand is a nation with a huge variety of scenery. We are proud of our ‘clean and green’ image, our rainforest and native bushlands, our thermal attractions, our pristine hill country and mountain ranges. What we lack in night life we more than make up for in adventure tourism and outdoor pursuits.

Fell probably laid the fireplace and chimney in his home. Being accessed via a narrow (Dark) street this small, workers cottage is representative of the development in Spring Hill during the 1870s. Fell placed his home at the rear of his block, possibly in the hope that its Boundary Street frontage might accommodate a future commercial building. Fell’s cottage is a rare example of a double-gabled, brick and timber nineteenth century workers cottage. Date of Citation — January 2016 Page 1 History Patrick Bradley of Brisbane purchased suburban Portion 216 on 23 January 1861. He paid ?176.2s.9d for 1 acre, 1 rood and 31 perches of land at Spring Hollow (Spring Hill). John George Brown bought Portion 216 on 15 December 1865. Brown subdivided the land into smaller housing allotments and he conducted a land sale commencing in January 1866. On 22 November 1872, John Crowther acquired 1 rood and 24.5 perches of land described as subdivisions 7, 8 and 9 of Portion 216.
