  • 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.

  • Raising Anxiety to Construct the Nation: Heartland – a Case Study
    1 Raising Anxiety to Construct the Nation: Heartland – A Case Study Philippa K Smith Centre for Communication Research AUT University Abstract Television is recognised as one of the best mediums to effectively access a great number of people within a nation and unite them by communicating stories which help them understand and feel they belong to a country. Shared meanings of nationhood are constructed in narrative form (Barker, 1999) and it is television's use of images that adds character and places it in a superior position to radio and print in eliciting a direct response from the audience (Corner, 1995). This paper uses critical discourse analysis to examine the narrative structure of an episode of the New Zealand television series Heartland, titled “East Coast – Towards the Light” to investigate the way it constructs a national identity for New Zealanders. It is argued that the programme uses a narrative structure similar to that described by French structuralist Tzevetan Todorov (1971) of equilibrium-disequilibrium-equilibrium whereby anxieties are raised within the audience psyche and then resolved in order to convey a positive message for New Zealanders - that in spite of differences whether ethnic, cultural or socio-economic - they can all be part of a united nation. Seeking a National Identity The television programme Heartland first broadcast in 1992 enabled other New Zealanders to visit and experience places they may have never been to before and see the other kinds of people who shared their country’s citizenship. It was a documentary series hosted by a popular New Zealand celebrity Gary McCormick who, in each episode, travelled to a different place in New Zealand, visiting mostly rural locations and connecting with the locals who lived there to show other New Zealanders the life that existed beyond the suburbs.

  • Research Report 3: Waimata River Sheridan Gundry
    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.
