    NETBALL HUTT VALLEY NETBALL HUTT VALLEY ANNUAL REPORT 2013 ANNUAL REPORT 2012 Notice of 2014 Annual General Meeting Notice of 2013 Annual General Meeting Agenda 2014 Annual General Meeting Agenda 2013 Annual General Meeting Minutes of the 2013 Annual General MeetingMinutes of the 2012 Annual General Meeting 2012 Annual Report 2013 Annual Report 1 FOREWORD FROM OUR MAYOR Grassroots sports is at the heart of what makes our community great – Saturday mornings spent playing or watching sport is a national pastime and one we’re lucky in Hutt City to be an integral part of. As Mayor I’m in the fortunate position of being able to ensure local sports have the good-quality local infrastructure they need to run successful clubs. This year that’s particularly true for Netball Hutt Valley as we’ve recently approved the budget re- quired to redevelop the Taita Netball Courts. The work to redevelop the Taita Netball Courts, which will be completed before the start of the 2014 season, will ensure we can accommodate current teams and offer more playing time. For example, upgrading the floodlights will open the opportunity of night competitions. Clubs like Netball Hutt Valley offer not only a place to exercise and develop sport skills but a chance to meet others socially and develop strong bonds between friends and neighbours, which is the foundation of strong communities. It is important to me that Council makes long-term investments in key community projects and the Taita Netball Courts is a great example of that. I look forward to continuing

  • Distribution of Geological Materials in Lower Hutt and Porirua, New Zealand a Component of a Ground Shaking Hazard Assessment
    332 DISTRIBUTION OF GEOLOGICAL MATERIALS IN LOWER HUTT AND PORIRUA, NEW ZEALAND A COMPONENT OF A GROUND SHAKING HAZARD ASSESSMENT G. D. Dellow1 , S. A. L. Read 1 , J. G. Begg1 , R. J. Van Dissen1 , N. D. Perrin1 ABSTRACT Geological materials in the Lower Hutt, Eastbourne, Wainuiomata, and Porirua urban areas are mapped and described as part of a multi-disciplinary assessment of seismic ground shaking hazards. Emphasis is mainly on the flat-lying parts of these areas which are underlain by variable Quaternary-age sediments that overlie Permian-Mesowic age 'greywacke' bedrock. Within the Quaternary-age sediments, the two material types recognised on strength characteristics are: 1) Soft sediments, typically composed of normally consolidated, fine-grained materials (sand, silt and clay), with typical standard penetration values (SPT) of <20 blows/300 mm; and 2) Loose to compact coarser-grained materials (sand, gravel), with SPT values of > 20 blows/ 300 mm. The total thickness and nature of Quaternary-age sediments in the study areas is described, with particular emphasis on the thickness and geotechnical properties of near-surface sediments. Such sediments are considered likely to have a significant influence on the an1plification and attenuation of ground shaking intensity during earthquakes. In the Lower Hutt valley, near-surface soft sediments greater than 10 m thick have an areal extent of -16 kni. Such soft sediments underlie much of Petone and the Lower Hutt urban and city centres, and have a maximum known thickness of 27 m near the western end of the Petone foreshore. In the Wainuiomata area, near-surface soft sediments greater than 10 m thick have an areal extent of - 3 krn2, and attain a maximum thickness of 32 m.

  • Wainuiomata Central Place Name Origins
    WainuiomataCentralPlaceNames.docx WAINUIOMATA CENTRAL PLACE NAME ORIGINS This document is about the origin of the names of various features of Central Wainuiomata on the flat area such as houses, parks and suburb names. It excludes road and street names. Wainuiomata is named after the big water or stream of Mata. Wai means water. Nui means big. O means of. Mata refers to a woman's name Roimata. This is an official version. The origins of the word are disputed and other commonly accepted translations are: - Refers to the women living in the now Hutt Valley who came over the Wainuiomata Hill to evade marauding tribes. These tribes in about 1819 were carrying muskets that came north from the Paremata area. In the battle the local tribes were said to have been destroyed. The Paremata Maoris came across the remaining women who were sitting wailing by the stream after the slaughter of their menfolk. From this we have “faces streaming with water”, “tears” or “weeping water”. - Refers to the large pools of water which lay over the swampy surface of the northern end of the Valley, or the river itself which is known to flood the Coast Road / Wainuiomata Valley. From this it can also mean large river from the swamp. - Refers to the whitebait that are present at the mouth of the river. Mata means whitebait. From this we have big river of whitebait. - Refers to flint or obsidian which is hard rock found in the headwaters of the river. - Refers to the origin and personification of water. The area for the purposes of this document covers is from the head of the Wainuiomata River to the mouth where it enters the sea at the Wainuiomata Coast and its tributaries.
