Feasibility Study St Andrews Presbyterian Church, Te Awamutu
Feasibility Study St Andrews Presbyterian Church, Te Awamutu Community Complex 13 March 2020 1 Executive Summary St Andrews Presbyterian Church in Te Awamutu proposes to build a church and community complex at its site next to the CBD and bordering the Te Awamutu community hub area. St Andrews has been located at the site for many years but in recent years had to demolish the old church because of earthquake standards. The remaining buildings also need strengthening to meet earthquake standards and are no longer fit for purpose. The old St Andrews facilities have clearly been both church and community facilities and have served many generations. They are well used currently by a wide range of community groups and activities despite their current limitations. St Andrews has strong relationships across local communities and has been responsive to community needs locally. Groups using the existing facilities have indicated that they are keen to continue their association with St Andrews and to use the proposed new complex. The proposed complex will include a single building of 1086m2 incorporating an auditorium, seminar room/auditorium extension, hall, commercial kitchen, hub area, youth area, 3 small meeting and counselling rooms, administration area, entrance foyer and 62 on-site carparks, with ample alternative parking nearby. Resource and building consents are already in place. The design is multi-purpose, flexible and highly accessible. The population in Te Awamutu, nearby Kihikihi and surrounding districts is growing rapidly and there is a level of deprivation in Te Awamutu and Kihikihi that means responsive community organisations are particularly important. While there are other venues in Te Awamutu, most are sports-oriented, dated, centred on a bar, limited to 1 or 2 spaces, or suitable for different sized groups. -
The Waikato War of 1863-64 a Guide to the Main Events and Sites
The Waikato War of 1863-64 A guide to the main events and sites Neville Ritchie About historic battlefields There have been numerous wars and skirmishes on New Zealand soil between Maori groups prior to European settlement, and the colonial wars between Maori and European forces. Each battle affected the history and development of this nation to varying degrees and, in many instances, left tangible evidence on the landscape such as Maori pa, European fortifications and cemeteries. Historic battlefields evoke strong emotions of patriotism, sacrifice, valour, brutality and humanity. Unfortunately, the evidence of past battlefields is disappearing as urban development and modern farming practices modify the landscapes that dictated troop manoeuvres and positions, and ultimately, the outcomes of bat- tles, campaigns, and wars. It is important to protect and interpret battlefields and sites that influenced the course of our history, and to raise awareness of the importance of preserving them for future generations. The author Dr Neville Ritchie is the Department of Conservation's Waikato Conservancy archaeologist and is based in Hamilton. His previous works include Coromandel Gold, written in conjunction with Phil Moore. Acknowledgements Other DOC staff have contributed to the text and production of this booklet, notably (the late) Owen Wilkes, Bruce Postill, Des Williams and Bev Taylor. The Te Awamutu Museum assisted with historical information and allowed photo- graphs in their collection to be reproduced.

British Logistics in the New Zealand Wars, 1845-66' A thesis presented in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy . In History at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand Richard J. Taylor 2004 Abstract While military historians freely acknowledge the importance of logistics - the function of sustaining armed forces in war and peace - the study of military history has tended to focus on other components of the military art, such as strategy, tactics or command. The historiography of the New Zealand Wars reflects this phenomenon. As a result, the impact of logistics on the Wars remains largely unexplored and misunderstood. The British superiority in numbers, materiel and technology has been one of the most consistent and enduring themes in the historiography of the New Zealand Wars. Although more recent, revisionist histories have also highlighted the impact of Maori military prowess as a factor, interpretations of the course and outcome of the Wars are still dominated by accounts which stress the numerical and technological superiority of the British Army as critical. There are several problems with this approach. At its most basic, it ignores the historical reality that small, poorly-equipped forces have occasionally defeated larger and better equipped opponents. More importantly, it fa ils to take into account wider British strategy in New Zealand, and events that took place offthe battlefield, such as the provision of the logistical services that did much to shape the outcome. -

Long Term Plan
Long Term Plan Consultation2021-2031 Document 10 years in 10 points… Waipā is adjusting to the impacts of the global COVID-19 pandemic, and economic 1 and social recovery will be a huge focus for us long-term. Ensuring Waipā is an affordable place to live, work, play and invest is one of the 2 biggest challenges facing our district in the next 10 years. Waipā continues to grow fast and to cater for growth we must have 3 infrastructure like pipes and roads. But to keep debt levels within limits and rates affordable, we’ve had to adjust the timing of some growth projects. Like other councils, our district is also facing a raft of big issues like managing climate change, effective delivery of water and wastewater services, and 4 managing ageing infrastructure. These issues impact heavily on our activities and priorities for the next 10 years. Our debt will increase significantly as we build new infrastructure to cater for growth and deliver the projects we’ve identified in the plan. We’re funding this 5 work from debt to ensure the cost is spread fairly between current and future ratepayers. Despite the challenges ahead, we will keep investing in our towns, community 6 projects and facilities so Waipā remains vibrant and a fantastic place for people to live and visit A huge chunk of work will be creating a ‘spatial plan’ - or ‘blueprint’ - for Waipā that sets out our plan of action for where and how we should grow and develop 7 over the next 30 years. It will include land use, transportation, three waters infrastructure, community infrastructure, heritage, and the environment. -
