  • Two Into One – Compiled by Jean D.Turvey
    Two Into One – compiled by Jean D.Turvey Page 1 Two Into One – compiled by Jean D.Turvey Page 2 Two Into One – compiled by Jean D.Turvey Published by Kaiapoi Co-operating Parish 53 Fuller Street Kaiapoi Email - [email protected] ISBN 0-476-00222-2 ©Copyright Kaiapoi Co-operating Parish, February 2004 Printed by Wickliffe Print 482 Moorhouse Avenue Christchurch PREFACE This is a story of three parishes - one Methodist, one Presbyterian, and one Co- operating - worshiping and witnessing in Kaiapoi in three different centuries. It starts with pioneer settlers in a small village half a world away from their homes. It ends - at least this part of the story does - in a burgeoning satellite town. Letters and news originally took months to arrive. Now they are as instant as emails and television. However, through the dramatic changes of the last 150 years runs the common thread of faith. This is a story which needs to be read twice. The first time, read what Jean Turvey has written. In any history there are those people who stand out because of their leadership, strong personalities, or eccentricities. Ministers loom large, simply because they are involved in most aspects of parish life. Buildings feature, because they provide a focal point for congregational life. The second reading of this history is more difficult. You need to read between the lines, to focus on what is not written. The unrecorded history of these three parishes is just as vital as the narration of obvious events and personalities. It consists of people whose names are unknown, but who worshipped faithfully and gave life to these local churches.

  • Floristic Changes Over 30 Years in a Canterbury Plains Känuka Forest Remnant, and Comparison with Adjacent Vegetation Types
    ECROYD,Available on-line BROCKERHOFF: at: http://www.nzes.org.nz/nzje CANTERBURY PLAINS KÄNUKA REMNANT 279 Floristic changes over 30 years in a Canterbury Plains känuka forest remnant, and comparison with adjacent vegetation types Chris E. Ecroyd1 and Eckehard G. Brockerhoff2 1 Ensis, Private Bag 3020, Rotorua, New Zealand Author for correspondence (E-mail: [email protected]) 2 Ensis, P.O. Box 29237, Christchurch, New Zealand ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Abstract: The Canterbury Plains have lost most of their pre-Polynesian indigenous vegetation, primarily forest and shrubland. One of the few remaining areas is the 2.3 ha Eyrewell Scientific Reserve which consists mostly of low känuka (Kunzea ericoides) forest and a small area of grassland. We assessed the Reserve vegetation using a combination of plots and transect surveys at different times of the year between 2001–2003. For comparison with the Reserve vegetation we also assessed plots in an adjacent grazed känuka remnant, adjacent cultivated pasture and Eyrewell Forest, a pine plantation. Our study of the Eyrewell Reserve in 2001–2003 found that since an assessment of the Reserve in 1972, 28 indigenous species were no longer present but 14 indigenous species and 48 adventive species were newly recorded. The dramatic invasion of the Reserve is illustrated by the fact that 60% of the 118 species recorded in 2003 were adventives compared to 34% in 1972. Despite this invasion and the loss of indigenous species, Reserve plots still have more than twice as many species as plots in the adjacent pine plantation. The Reserve also included several species of high conservation value such as the “Chronically Threatened” Leptinella serrulata, and the “At Risk” Aciphylla subflabellata, Coprosma intertexta and Pterostylis tristis.

INTRODUCTION It is just twenty-five years since 'Our Yesteryears: 1840-1950' (a short history of Methodism in Canterbury) was published. At that time, Cantabrians stood on the eve of the provincial centennial. Twenty-five years later five denominations —including Methodism — stand on the brink of a decision which is crucial to their continued independent existence. It seemed appropriate therefore, to bring the story of Methodism in Canterbury up to date in the hope that from the late 1970s the Church of Christ in New Zealand will be a reality and the story of Methodism as a separate denomination complete.

There are a number of good local foray sites in the area, including Cooper’s Creek, Wharfedale Track, and the Mt Grey area. More distant to the west is the Cragieburn forest park and Arthur’s Pass national park, and to the north the Hanmer area. A DOC brochure on the local tracks in the Oxford foothills may be found at: http://tinyurl.com/yeqfp2r The foray programme will involve daily collecting, identification, and provision of display tables of the day’s finds, followed in the evening by informal talks. Wednesday 5th May will be set aside for the Mycology Colloquium where participants can present talks. Length of presentations will generally be 15-20 minutes including questions, but this will be confirmed closer to the time when we know how many speakers there are.
