  • A 40 Year History

    A 40 Year History

    New Zealand Secondary Schools Athletics Association National Secondary School Cross Country Championships A 40 Year History Introduction The New Zealand Secondary Schools Athletics Association is proud to publish a forty- year history of the New Zealand Secondary Schools Cross Country Championships. Participation in the event between 1974 and 2013 totals well over 10,000 athletes from all but a handful of schools from around the country. With an annual involvement of over 1000 students it has become one of the largest secondary school sporting events in New Zealand. The idea for this document was born during the 1995 NZSSCC Championships in Masterton. At this time (before the internet), results were published in a hard copy booklet. In this particular year the first three place getters in the individual, and three and six person team categories were published for the first twenty-one years of the events history. This accompanied the full set of 1995 results. After this event, the majority of results were published electronically. Unfortunately, many of these results were lost in the mid to late nineties because there was no dedicated NZSSAA website. Sincere thanks need to be given to Don Chadderton for providing the first twenty years’ of results. Without these early results a significant part of athletics New Zealand’s history would have eventually been forgotten. These include the 1974 performance of Alison Rowe, who would later go on to win both the 1981 Boston and New York marathons. As well as Burnside High School’s 1978 performance in the junior boys event where they completed the perfect three-man score of six points.

    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.

    Job Information Pack

    Job Information Pack Position Summary Business Name: Papanui Estate: Papanui & Ferndale Stations – Turakina Valley Finishing farm - Feilding Breeding and Finishing block - Ohingaiti Property Summary: Papanui & Ferndale Stations are family owned large scale hill country stations located at the top end of the Turakina Valley. The Stations run a traditional sheep breeding operation with trade steers. These two stations are supported by two finishing blocks, one in Fielding and the other in Ohingaiti. Position Title: General Hand Position Overview: This General Farm Hand role will offer a very broad range of tasks ensuring no two days at work are the same. There will be some flexibility with tasks as they will be determined by your skill-set. There is a variety of work from digger and bulldozer operating, through to fencing, welding, carpentry and some stock work. The owners are happy for you to have a couple of working dogs but they are not a necessity in this role. Ideally, our clients are looking for a practical minded person with a can-do attitude who enjoys problem solving. You will need to have a reasonable level of competency with fencing as the role will involve R&M fencing and depending on your skill level some new fencing may be required. You will be based on Papanui Station, but will be required to work on the other properties within this farming business as required. You will be reporting to the Station Owner and once you become familiar with the farming operation the expectation is that you will be able to efficiently manage your own time in order to complete all day-to-day tasks.
