It focuses on a selection of parks and reserves administered by the Department of Conservation (DOC) in your region. There are six accessible sites within the Waikato that are ideal for learning about marine reserves, limestone caves, volcanoes, forests, endangered species and historic reserves. In addition, there are currently three sites (plus one pending) suitable for wetland studies. By visiting these sites, students can consolidate work already done and gain additional first-hand experiences and information to complete their studies. CROSS-CURRICULAR OR SPECIALISED In planning your programme we suggest using the Guidelines for Environmental Education in New Zealand Schools. The guidelines provide advice on environmental topics and how to plan these into curriculum studies and programmes with a bicultural focus. Sites can be used to meet goals from specific curriculum areas, or different curriculum areas simultaneously. This is an approach that mirrors the interconnectedness of the environment. ACTIVITIES Activities in these kits can be adapted to the age/level of your students, allowing you to choose the achievement objectives at the appropriate level. Activities are designed to support the key dimensions of environmental education - in, about and for the environment. Education in the environment Education in the environment (both natural and built) gives opportunities to develop skills in observation, data collection, practical inquiry and investigation, as well as social and co-operative skills, group-work skills, communication skills, and problem-solving. Education about the environment Education about the environment involves not only knowing about and understanding the natural and built environments, but also appreciating the key social, political, ecological and economic factors that influence decision making on local, national and global issues. 5 Education for the environment Education for the environment involves developing a sense of responsibility for natural and social environments. It deals with people’s emotions and their willingness to make lifestyle choices that help maintain and improve the quality of the environment. Education for the environment is based on students’ knowledge and understanding about the environment and their experiences in the environment – all three aspects are interlinked. A balanced environmental education programme addresses all three dimensions (in, about, and for ). BEFORE YOU START The activities in this kit offer students the opportunity of working across a range of related subject areas - in much the same way as project teams work together to manage a forest park or marine reserve, for the benefit of all. Teachers are encouraged to undertake further extension activities such as: • Use of media such as the internet, books, videos, maps and tapes. • Taking part in a Ministry of Education LEOTC (Learning Experiences Outside the Classroom) programme. • Visits to zoos, aquaria, botanic gardens, museums, marine education centres and other facilities offering environmental education programmes and resources. • Guided trips and recreational activities led by accredited outdoor education providers. BACK AT SCHOOL To get the best value from a field trip teachers should plan good lead-in and follow-up activities. If students have some formative ideas about what they might find, they will observe in a more focused way and therefore develop their concepts more fully. The suggested activities given on pages 21 and 22 are designed to encompass learning 'about' and 'for' the environment. You will find specific site-based activities for Waikato Wetlands (learning 'in' the environment) from page 37 onwards. 6.

  • Potential Shallow Seismic Sources in the Hamilton Basin Project 16/717 5 July 2017
    Final Report on EQC Potential shallow seismic sources in the Hamilton Basin Project 16/717 5 July 2017 Vicki Moon & Willem de Lange School of Science University of Waikato 1. Introduction Following the exposure of a fault within a cutting in a new sub-division development in NE Hamilton, an initial investigation suggested the presence of 4 fault zones within the Hamilton Basin (Figure 1) that represented a potential hazard to infrastructure within the Basin. Hence, the overall aim of the proposal put to EQC was to refine the locations of four potentially active faults within the Hamilton Basin. To achieve this aim, two main phases of geophysical surveying were planned: 1. A seismic reflection survey along the Waikato River channel; and 2. Resistivity surveying to examine the sub- surface structure of identified fault zones. Additional MSc student projects, funded by Waikato Regional Council, were proposed to map the surface geology and geomorphology, and assess the liquefaction potential within the Hamilton Basin. During the course of the project, the initial earthworks Figure 1: Map of the four fault zones that were initially identified from geomorphology for the Hamilton Section of the Waikato Expressway and surface fault exposures, as presented in provided exposures of faults, which resulted in some the original proposal. modification of the project. 2. Methods The two main methodological approaches planned for this project were: 1. A high resolution CHIRP seismic reflection survey along the Waikato River within the Hamilton Basin. A previous study examining the stability of the river banks in response to fluctuating water levels (Wood, 2006) had obtained detailed data on the morphology of the river bed using multi-beam and single-beam echo sounders (MBES and SBES respectively), and side scan sonar.

  • F Notable Trees F1 Criteria for Listing Waikato District Plan
    Waikato District Plan - Waikato Section F Notable Trees F1 Criteria for Listing In order for all trees to be assessed on an equal basis and against objective criteria, the New Zealand Standard Tree Evaluation Method (STEM) has been adopted. Three major aspects of tree character are identified, each being divided into units that can be separately valued against a hypothetical perfect score of 30 points for each unit, as follows. Condition evaluation o Form o Occurrence o Vigour and vitality o Function o Age (years) o Stature (m) Amenity evaluation o Public accessibility o Visibility (from 1kilometre) o Proximity o Role o Climate Notable evaluation o Stature ­ Feature ­ Form o Historic ­ Age 100+ ­ Association ­ Commemoration ­ Remnant ­ Relic o Scientific ­ Source ­ Rarity ­ Endangered The threshold for determining if trees will be classed as notable trees is a minimum of 170 points. These trees are considered to be healthy and stable and have some outstanding features that contribute to the amenity and heritage of a neighbourhood and make a positive impact on the district.

  • Mapping the Socio- Political Life of the Waikato River MARAMA MURU-LANNING
    6. ‘At Every Bend a Chief, At Every Bend a Chief, Waikato of One Hundred Chiefs’: Mapping the Socio- Political Life of the Waikato River MARAMA MURU-LANNING Introduction At 425 kilometres, the Waikato River is the longest river in New Zealand, and a vital resource for the country (McCan 1990: 33–5). Officially beginning at Nukuhau near Taupo township, the river is fed by Lake Taupo and a number of smaller rivers and streams throughout its course. Running swiftly in a northwesterly direction, the river passes through many urban, forested and rural areas. Over the past 90 years, the Waikato River has been adversely impacted by dams built for hydro-electricity generation, by runoff and fertilisers associated with farming and forestry, and by the waste waters of several major industries and urban centres. At Huntly, north of Taupiri (see Figure 6.1), the river’s waters are further sullied when they are warmed during thermal electricity generation processes. For Māori, another major desecration of the Waikato River occurs when its waters are diverted and mixed with waters from other sources, so that they can be drunk by people living in Auckland. 137 Island Rivers Figure 6.1 A socio-political map of the Waikato River and catchment. Source: Created by Peter Quin, University of Auckland. As the Waikato River is an important natural resource, it has a long history of people making claims to it, including Treaty of Waitangi1 claims by Māori for guardianship recognition and management and property rights.2 This process of claiming has culminated in a number of tribes 1 The Treaty of Waitangi was signed by the British Crown and more than 500 Māori chiefs in 1840.
