Around 400 vehicles were driven from the showgrounds along the main road to the Grey Street turning point and back as farmers — with support from others including tradies — vented their frustration at government policies they see as being to their constant detriment. A collective nationwide protest across 50 towns and cities was set up and tens of thousands took part. MEETING PLACE: Protesters en masse met at Showgrounds Park before jumping in their vehicles and heading to the city centre as one long line that stretched for blocks. Gisborne event organisers Neil and Esther Henderson said they were “blown away” by the turnout. BOTH SIDES COVERED: Vehicles for as far as the eye can see convoy along both sides of Gladstone Road during the protest. ‘WE’RE WITH YOU’: Members of the public wave out as vehicles go past them at the SHOW OF SUPPORT: The Howl of Protest received plenty of support from Grey Street roundabout, heading back to Showgrounds Park. “Good on the farmers the footpath, including this lot, who unfurled a New Zealand flag and shouted for doing this today,” one sidewalk spectator said. “Hopefully the Government will encouragement to the hundreds of vehicles driven past them. listen to them now.

  • 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.

  • 7. Poverty Bay and East Coast
    7. Poverty Bay and East Coast The first fighting in the Poverty Bay and East Coast regions took place in 1865 at Tokomaru Bay, Waiapu and Hicks Bay, mostly between sections of the Ngāti Porou tribe (Cowan 1983 II: 117–123; Soutar 2000). On one side were Pai Marire (‘Hau Hau’) or ‘Kingite’ forces and on the other ‘Queenite’ Māori forces and allied Pākehā. There followed a six-day siege of the Pai Marire pā Waerenga-a-Hika in Poverty Bay in November 1865, resulting in surrender of the pā and the deaths of 11 men on the government side and more than 100 Pai Marire (Cowan 1983 II: 124–128) . On 10 July 1868, Te Kooti Arikirangi and 300 followers landed at Whareongaonga, south of Poverty Bay, having escaped from imprisonment on the Chatham Islands. This led to fighting in the next four years over much of the central and eastern North Island, with fortifications involved at Ngatapa (7.5), inland of Poverty Bay in December 1868 and January 1869, at Whakatane in March 1869 (5.31, 5.34), Mohaka in April 1869 (8.1, 8.6), and in October 1869 at Te Porere (6.15– 16), south of Lake Taupo (Cowan 1983: II ; Binney 1995: 87–208). Fortifications in this section are listed under: • Poverty Bay • East Coast POVERTY BAY 7.1 Crow’s Nest X17/32 (2908600E 6288600N); recorded 1991, update 1999.

    TE AWAROA: RESTORING NEW ZEALAND RIVERS RESEARCH REPORT 3: WAIMATA RIVER SHERIDAN GUNDRY THE WAIMATA RIVER: SETTLER HISTORY POST 1880 The Waimata River – Settler History post 1880 Sheridan Gundry, Te Awaroa Project Report No. 3 Land within the Waimata River catchment, comprising about 220 square kilometres1, began to be available for purchase after the passing of the Native Lands Act 1865 and subsequent land surveys and issuing of legal Crown title. The lower reaches of the Waimata River – including parts of the Kaiti, Whataupoko and Pouawa blocks – were the first to go into European ownership from around 1880, when John and Thomas Holden bought the 7000 acre Rimuroa block; the Hansen brothers bought about 8000 acres comprising Horoeka, Maka and Weka; Bennet bought the 1100 acre Kanuka block; and Charles Gray, the Waiohika block. The next year, in 1881, the Kenway brothers bought the 3000-acre Te Pahi further upriver. The Kenways gave the property the name Te Pahi, meaning The End, because at the time it was at the end of the road with nothing beyond.2 This soon changed with further purchases of Maori land beyond Te Pahi continuing through to the late 1890s. Further land became available in the south, east and north Waimata with the New Zealand Native Land Settlement Company offering about 20,000 acres for sale in late 1882. The blocks “conveyed to the company” were approved by the Trust Commissioner and titles were to be registered under the Land Transfer Act.3 The areas involved were Waimata South, 9,555; Waimata East, 4,966; Waimata North, 4,828.
