  • Auckland Regional Office of Archives New Zealand
    A supplementary finding-aid to the archives relating to Maori Schools held in the Auckland Regional Office of Archives New Zealand MAORI SCHOOL RECORDS, 1879-1969 Archives New Zealand Auckland holds records relating to approximately 449 Maori Schools, which were transferred by the Department of Education. These schools cover the whole of New Zealand. In 1969 the Maori Schools were integrated into the State System. Since then some of the former Maori schools have transferred their records to Archives New Zealand Auckland. Building and Site Files (series 1001) For most schools we hold a Building and Site file. These usually give information on: • the acquisition of land, specifications for the school or teacher’s residence, sometimes a plan. • letters and petitions to the Education Department requesting a school, providing lists of families’ names and ages of children in the local community who would attend a school. (Sometimes the school was never built, or it was some years before the Department agreed to the establishment of a school in the area). The files may also contain other information such as: • initial Inspector’s reports on the pupils and the teacher, and standard of buildings and grounds; • correspondence from the teachers, Education Department and members of the school committee or community; • pre-1920 lists of students’ names may be included. There are no Building and Site files for Church/private Maori schools as those organisations usually erected, paid for and maintained the buildings themselves. Admission Registers (series 1004) provide details such as: - Name of pupil - Date enrolled - Date of birth - Name of parent or guardian - Address - Previous school attended - Years/classes attended - Last date of attendance - Next school or destination Attendance Returns (series 1001 and 1006) provide: - Name of pupil - Age in years and months - Sometimes number of days attended at time of Return Log Books (series 1003) Written by the Head Teacher/Sole Teacher this daily diary includes important events and various activities held at the school.

  • Significant Ecological Estuarine Area Assessment Sheet for Wading and Aquatic Birds
    Significant Ecological Estuarine Area Assessment Sheet for Wading and Aquatic Birds Name/Area: Ngunguru Estuary Summary: The Ngunguru Estuary is a small estuary situated to the north-east of Whangarei Harbour. It has very small areas of tidal flat, but well buffered edges comprising mangroves, saltmarsh and adjacent shrubland and some exotic forestry. There is a little-modified sandspit at the entrance flanked by shrubland and forest linking south with Horahora Estuary, while a residential area (Ngunguru) lies on the northern side of the estuary. Low numbers of several threatened species frequent or visit the estuary mainly for feeding (refer Table below). The sandspit provides breeding habitat for northern NZ dotterel and variable oystercatcher and roosting flocks of several species. There are important populations of fernbirds, banded rails, crakes and Australasian bitterns in this area as well as recovering numbers of pateke (brown teal). The ecological significance of this estuary is High given the importance of the sandspit and the habitat sequences through to freshwater wetlands which collectively support many threatened and at risk species.
