The Wellington Education Board Was Formed in 1877 and the Levin School Was Started Very Late Levin 1889-1890 1890 25 Levin Stuckey F Albert Male £ 100.00 The Wellington Education Board was formed in 1877 and the Levin school was started very late. Otaki started in 1880 with the Wanganui Education Board Schools. Otaki became a Wellington Education Board school in 1886 5th July 1889 NOTICE is hereby given, in terms of section 117 of the Land Act, 1885, that Henry Bevan, the Selector of Section 30, Levin Village Settlement, has applied to transfer the same to Frederick George Albert Stuckey. 6th September 1889 TO BUILDERS. ERECTION OF A SCHOOL AT LEVIN, TENDERS are invited for erection of a Schoolhouse at Levin. Specification to be seen at the office of the Education Board, Wellington, Messrs Stevens and Gorton, Palmerston North, and with the undersigned, to whom tenders must be sent, to arrive on or before noon on Wednesday, the 11th inst. I The lowest or any tender not necessarily accepted. FRED. STUCKEY, Chairman, Levin School Board. 4th September, 1889 [I could find no mention of a school board being formed] 6th January 1890 An Entertainment at Levin, —Mr W. H. Warren, who proceeds to Levin in readiness for the sale of education reserves tomorrow, will read in the Levin schoolhouse this evening, Dickon's ‘‘Christmas Carol” in aid of the school building fund. The schoolhouse is one of those recently erected in the bush settlements along the Manawatu line, and will be ready for service at the conclusion of -the present vacation. The Wellington Education Board were assisted in the cost of erection of the school by the settlers in the- neighbourhood; - and it is to assist the settlers that the present entertainment is intended. It is a healthy sign when settlers are, willing to put their hands in their pockets for the purpose of assisting the cause of education. 30th January 1890 Wellington Education Board Job applications included teacher at Levin, £100 and house 3 applicants 19th February 1890 Wellington Education Board Mr R S Pope appointed 21st February 1890 The New Levin school building — the farthest yet erected on the Manawatu line — has now been completed. Mr Pope is the master’ 24th April 1890 [School unidentified but probably Levin] Please allow me through your columns to complain of what I consider a nuisance on the railway between Palmerston and Wellington. Being a passenger lately, I and the other occupants of the carriage were annoyed by the fact that about twenty school children were put in at, I think, a place called Levin, and they travelled to Manakau, and during the time they were in the carriage it was just like Bedlam let loose, and through their incessant jabber it was simply impossible to hear oneself speak. Why don’t the Company find a special carriage for these children, and not impose such an infliction on people who are unfortunate enough not to be able to afford to travel first-class ? Another complaint is against the young collisions passengers by this train are treated to in the shape of jerks, enough to almost knock one down. If the Company do not wish to appear some of these days as defendants in some action for damages, let them see to this.— 1 am, etc., Facts. 25th June 1890 Wellington Education Board Alterations and improvements to the schools at Levin and Porirua were sanctioned. 30th October 1890 Wellington Education Board Mr Whiley’s tender of 18s per chain for fencing at Levin was accepted. [The chain is a unit of length equal to 66 feet (22 yards). It is subdivided into 100 links or 4 rods. There are 10 chains in a furlong, and 80 chains in one statute mile. In metric terms, it is 20.1168 m long.] In March 2020 terms inflation adjusted each chain would cost £185.427 10th December 1890 Wellington Education Board The resignations of Miss F. -Broberg Eketahuna, and Mr. R.

The township, consisting of 4000 acres in the Horowhenua Block, was that referred to in my last letter as having been sold to Government by the native owners. Government has disposed of it to settlers, and rapid progress is being made with the work of clearing, and no less than 1500 acres of bush will bs felled at Levin this season. 11th December 1890 Evening Post A correspondent at Levin writes to us a long letter complaining of the manner in which the son of the chairman of the School Committee has been appointed to the position of master of the Levin school. Ho says grave dissatisfaction exists in the district upon the subject, and' a public meeting is likely to be held to petition the Board. Our correspondent's letter contains allegations which we could not safely publish.

Two openings, stony land where the forest never grew, make breaks in the forest with dreary poverty in the midst of the richness around; we reach and pass the little settlement of Levin; and once more we are in the heart of the forest.

A record of natural and human- induced environmental change from Lake Horowhenua A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Earth Science School of Agriculture and Natural Environment, Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand Celeste Bevins 2019 Lake Horowhenua at sunset. Abstract Lake Horowhenua is a hypertrophic turbid lake located in the western coastal plain of the lower North Island of New Zealand. In order to effectively restore or manage modified systems such as Lake Horowhenua, an understanding of past environmental change and natural variability is essential to provide a benchmark for ‘natural’ conditions. Cores from the bed of Lake Horowhenua have been analysed to reconstruct a detailed environmental record for the last c. 4,200 cal yr BP. Prior to lake formation, the area now occupied by the lake was subject to fluvial deposition from the Ohau River sometime prior to 7,500 cal yr BP. Dune transgression began in the region c. 7,700 cal yr BP at the very earliest, and drainage of the small streams and springs was impeded, allowing for the formation of a proto lake. A tidal surge up the Hokio Stream may have occurred c. 7,100 cal yr BP. Clastic delivery into the lake from the inflowing streams was high from 4,200 cal yr BP until sometime around 3,200 cal yr BP.

  • Manawatu-Whanganui Regional Sports Facility Plan Is to Provide a High Level Strategic Framework for Sport and Recreation Facility Planning Across the Region (Map 1)
    MANAWATU - WHANGANUI REGIONAL SPORT FACILITY PLAN REFERENCE REPORT MARCH 2018 Foreword – Sport New Zealand Sport New Zealand aims to get more young people and adults into sport and active recreation and produce more winners on the worlds sporting stage. It does this through its strategic approach for Community Sport and High Performance Sport outcomes. Spaces, places, and facilities for sport is one of five strategic priorities in the Community Sport Strategy with a goal to develop and sustain a world leading community sport system where the need of the participant and athlete is the focus. With leadership from the network of Regional Sports Trusts, Sport NZ is actively supporting better decision making and investment for future sporting spaces and places through a collaborative regional approach with local and regional government, education, Iwi, funders, national and regional sports organisations. The drivers for taking a regional approach to facility planning can be one or more of the following: • The desire of funders to invest wisely in identified priority projects that will make the most impact • An ageing network of facilities needing refurbishment, re-purposing, replacement or removal • Changing demographics within a community, such as an increase in the population. • Changing participation trends nationally and within a region requiring new types of facilities, or a new use of an existing facility • Increasing expectations of users and user groups • A growing acknowledgement that there is a hierarchy of facilities – regional, sub-regional and local – and that regional collaboration is the only fair and reasonable way to build and manage regional and sub-regional facilities.

  • Sand Country of the Wellington West Coast G
    SAND COUNTRY OF THE WELLINGTON WEST COAST G. H. HOCKING* SYNOPSIS Sand soils occupy 270,000 acres of the Wellington West Coast between Paekakariki and Patea. Four age phases are recognized, the older three being referred to collectively as the Older Dune Complex and the most recent, the Waitarere Phase, as the Younger Dune Complex. This last derives from wind erosion caused mainly by a century of European farming occupation. The climate is characterized by strong winds and. summer drought. The natural vegetation has been modified to a limited extent by 1,000 years of Maori occupation and more completely by recent pastoral use. The stability and use of the soils of this sand country are largely depen­ dent on their moisture status, which forms the main basis of their classification. The earliest official recognition of the sand drift problem was the passing of the Sand Drift Act 1908. This was followed by a pilot reclamation scheme undertaken by the Lands Department and the Forest Service at Tangimoana between 1915 and 1931. Sand reclamation was then extended under the Public Works Department until 1951, when it reverted to the Lands Department and the Forest Service. Government policy in sand reclamation has aimed primarily at bringing more coastal land into farm produc­ tion, forest production being a secondary consideration. At present, State forests at Waitarere, Tangimoana and Santoft contain 18,700 acres of which 12,000 acres are regarded as potentially productive and 5,200 acres have been planted. The timber requirements of the Manawatu-Wanganui district and adjacent districts are substantial and a land-use study has shown that, on the freer draining sand soils, forestry is significantly more profitable than sheep/beef farming and is of comparable profitability to dairying on the limited areas suitable for this type of farming.

What fantastic learning opportunities our students have had over the past few weeks. They have experienced…. ‘A visit to Waitarere Beach Surf Life Saving Club where students participated in the NZ Surf Life Saving Beach Education Programme, also a visit to the ‘Fairy Garden’ and exploration of ‘Middle Earth’. The key messages from the Beach Education trip were – ‘Swim between the flags’ and ‘Slip, Slop, Slap and Wrap’. Students have been doing a wide range of follow up activities. A ‘Flying’ visit from the RNZAF where Levin School was visited by an Agusta 109 air force helicopter. Students were blown away by this great experience. Well done to Mrs Taylor and her last years class for the letter writing. A group of 24 Year 5 & 6 students visited the Makahika Outdoor Centre for a day of team building and challenging exercises. The ‘high ropes’ activities were certainly a hit, as was the flying fox. Many thanks to the whanau members and friends of the school who helped in making these events a success. It wouldn’t be possible without your support. “It takes a community to raise a child”. Nga Mihi Paddy Sannazzaro Welcome: Taratoa joined Hinua class last week.

PALEOENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS OF QUATERNARY STRATA IN THE LEVIN AREA A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Quaternary Science at Massey University ALAN HENRY SEWELL 1991 ·-~-. - - ,.-.··,_·.:·.-· Frontispiece: Pencil sketch looking north from the Tararua foothills, south-east of Potts Hill, across the Tokomaru Marine Terrace and Manawatu River flood plain beyond. ABSTRACT Marine transgression during the Last Interglacial resulted in widespread inundation of the southern Manawa tu area. The Otaki Formation constitutes the relatively thick blanket of predominantly marine sand deposited at the height of the transgression and is now exposed in a partially dissected marine terrace abutting the Tararua Range. Sedimentation was controlled by basement block faulting related to a regional strike-slip tectonic regime on the south­ eastern margin of the South Wanganui Basin. Wave-induced longshore currents from the north-west supplied abundant sediment to the coast. North-east of Levin the Kairanga Trough, occupying a north-east-trending structural depression between uplifted basement blocks, formed the centre of an embayment during the transgression. Tide-dominated depositional processes predominated around the margins of the embayment. In the Forest Lakes area, the absence of seaward barriers resulted in an open wave-dominated coastline. Between Ohau and Shannon mixed wave/tide processes predominated. Stabilisation of sea level resulted in shoreline progradation which was especially marked south of Levin where a dune belt formed, mantling the coastal cliff and later migrating inland.
