  • Visit the Beautiful Bay of Islands, a Year-Round Destination and Birthplace of New Zealand
    Visit the beautiful Bay of Islands, a year-round destination and birthplace of New Zealand. Journey to New Zealand’s northernmost point, discover the country’s cultural heritage at Waitangi and experience the natural beauty of the region on a scenic cruise. Day 1: Auckland to Paihia (148 miles) Cross the Waitemata Harbour traveling north to Whangarei and Paihia. The Bay of Islands is one of the most historical parts of New Zealand. At Waitangi on February 6th, 1840, the Maori Chiefs ceded sovereignty to Queen Victoria. The Treaty House is now an historic museum. The coastal waters are renowned for thrilling deep-sea fishing for marlin, swordfish and other game fish. Light-tackle fishing for yellowtail provides year-round sport. Day 2: Paihia Paihia is great for relaxing or chilling on the beach. Perhaps visit the historic Waitangi Treaty Grounds where the Treaty of Waitangi was signed. Take a tour and view the magnificent war canoe, Maori meeting house and the Treaty House (allow 1-2 hours). Admission is NZ$25/adult or you can take a guided tour NZ$35. Cultural performances and hangi are available (Nov – Apr) and are additional. This afternoon visit historic and romantic Russell. Take a Russell mini tour or wander around the town by yourself. Russell Museum tells you the history of the town. Don't miss Christ Church - NZ's oldest church and Pompallier - NZ's Heritage Printery. If it is a nice day, take a walking track up to the Flagstaff Hill look out - magnificent views! (allow 1-3 Hours). Day 3: Cape Reinga and 90 Mile Beach (266 miles round-trip) Unfortunately you cannot take your rental vehicle on 90 Mile Beach, but you can drive up Hwy 1 to Cape Reinga, the most accessible northernmost tip of New Zealand, where the Tasman Sea and the Pacific Ocean meet.

  • 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.

The Far North District Council’s response was to offer the community the opportunity of creating a Community Development Plan which included the concepts of catchment integration and sustainable management. A Community Development Plan is a document created by a community. It is an expression of the community’s vision and aspirations for their land, waters and people for the medium-term future. As such, it firstly has to seek those visions and aspirations. In the case of this plan, that work took place in a series of public meetings held through 2009.

  • First Years at Hokianga 1827 – 1836
    First Years at Hokianga 1827-1836 by Rev.C.H.Laws FIRST YEARS AT HOKIANGA 1827 – 1836 In a previous brochure, entitled "Toil and Adversity at Whangaroa," the story of the Methodist Mission to New Zealand is told from its initiation in 1823 to its disruption and the enforced flight of the missionaries in 1827. After a brief stay with members of the Anglican Mission at the Bay of Islands the Methodist party sailed for Sydney in the whaler "Sisters" on January 28th, 1827, arriving at their destination on February 9th. It consisted of Nathaniel Turner and Mrs. Turner, with their three children, John Hobbs, James Stack and Mr. and Mrs. Luke Wade, and they took with them a Maori girl and two native lads. William White had left Whangaroa for England on September 19th, 1825, and at the time of the flight had not returned. The catastrophe to the Mission was complete. The buildings had been burned to the ground, the live stock killed; books and records destroyed, and the property of the Mission now consisted only of a few articles in store in Sydney which had not been forwarded to New Zealand. Wesley Historical Society (NZ) Publication #4(2) 1943 Page 1 First Years at Hokianga 1827-1836 by Rev.C.H.Laws Chapter I The departure of the Mission party for Sydney is seen, as we look back upon it, to have been the right course. Sydney was their headquarters, they were a large party and could not expect to stay indefinitely with their Anglican friends, and it could not be foreseen when they would be able to re-establish the work.
