We are being constantly reminded that we are at Alert level 1 and the need for preparedness in the event of community transmission. We continue to follow strict hygiene guidelines, ask that people stay at home if they are unwell and encourage you to use the covid tracing app so contact tracing can support the necessary responses. Kaylee Bell, our speaker for the evening Parents and whānau may be worried about your child’s progress due to the disruptions of COVID or other reasons. Encourage them to talk with their child’s teachers so a response can be planned together that connects the learning and practice to everyday activities at home or in the community. Some online supports that are in place for wider wellbeing needs of students: advice for parents and whānau, including wellbeing tips.

  • An Analysis of Groundwater Quality in the Morven, Glenavy and Ikawai Area, South Canterbury, New Zealand
    An analysis of groundwater quality in the Morven, Glenavy and Ikawai area, South Canterbury, New Zealand. A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Masters of Arts m Geography in the University of Canterbury by David William _fampbell .. University of Canterbury 1996 !f:Nt,:;<~ ERING LIBRARY Tb 3l)..f, .W/32 .C/gl Frontispiece ~~~~ A representation of the study area: Greener pastures - greater production. Does this affect the groundwater quality? l : NOV 2005 ii Abstract The quality of groundwater beneath land surfaces can be influenced by activities carried out on the land. The combination of these activities and effects of the physical environment can cause groundwater contamination, being the threshold at which human or animal health is at risk. The physical environment can induce unacceptable levels of chemicals to groundwater and these may be measured by indicators such as pH and hardness. Particular activities leading to contamination in rural environments include farming activities utilising irrigation and chemicals to enhance production. An outcome of these activities may include the disposal of animal wastes which is a direct contaminant input having the potential to reach groundwater. Settlement patterns, in particular small settlements which are unsewered, can also contribute to groundwater contamination through sewage disposal from septic tanks. This thesis explores how these activities may influence groundwater quality of the Morven, Glenavy and Ikawai area in South Canterbury, New Zealand. In doing so it utilises groundwater measurements taken by the Canterbury Regional Council from 90 wells in February and May 1996. The results from these measur~ments are related using a Geographic Information System to various human activities, namely farm type, irrigation, waste disposal and settlement patterns and two physical parameters, soil permeability and groundwater depth or piezometric surface.

  • John David Mills UI7268. Joined 17 January 1962 I Was Born In
    Anecdote; John David Mills UI7268. Joined 17 January 1962 I was born in Devonport Auckland of Naval Officer parents. Dad was a Lieutenant RNVR and RNZNVR 1938 to 1946. Served in coastal forces UK till 1944 and NZ from 1944 till discharge. Mum was a Third Officer Wren in Auckland. My growing years were spent in Waimate, a small rural town of approx. 2000pax. The climbing of the Hunter Hills and hunting in that area were to stand me in good stead for the future. To say I was educated in Waimate would be a misnomer, however I did attend school until the 5th Form enjoying the rugby, cricket and swimming!!! Aside from being brought up under the Naval Discipline Act, the frequent visits of ex Naval personal to our house had me leaning in the direction of a career in the RNZN and a good reason to leave school and look for the good times I heard these ex Navy men talk about!! Dad surprisingly wasn’t that supportive of me joining the RNZN (prior knowledge I expect). He steered me in the direction of Deck Officer Cadet with the mercantile marine. After interviews with the P&O shipping and the Shaw Savill and Blue Star lines about a career with them, I remained keen on the RNZN, the Naval Recruiter convinced me with some well-practised words about joining them. Boys from Waimate had already joined in earlier times, two from the Dennison family, George Bell, Graham Rooney and my father to name a few. Having passed the entrance exam (must have been easy) done the medical with the port medical officer in Timaru, my school mate and friend, Ian (Buff) Mathison and I boarded the Steamer Express at Studholme Junction to begin our new life with a three day journey to Auckland.
