Showing all the elements in a maer of 3 days. Cold, wind, rain, frost and the eventual, sunshine. Some waited with sausage in hand for the ute loads of possums, hares, rabbits, wallabies, stoats, ferrets, 4 blind mice. ( not in the count but a rodent all the same) and a couple of turkeys. As they arrived hunt- ers produced their largest possums weighed, had their lots categorised, counted and recorded to produce a total of 298 as well as a trailer of rabbits, wallabies, stoats, and a ferret As well as the challenge there was a lively and hilarious aucon of goods (supplied many local business- es) by Charles Sturt which raised an extra $920 to the amount raised on the day.

1. Kerosene Creek 2. Wairua Stream
1. Kerosene Creek First on our list of hot pools in Rotorua is the world-famous Kerosene Creek. 35 minutes from Rotorua and down a gravel road will take you to the thermal pool and waterfall at Kerosene Creek. The creek is popular not just for its geothermal activity but its beautiful surroundings. Location: 28km south of Rotorua. Take State Highway 5, then travel about 2km down Old Waiotapu Road. 2. Wairua Stream Wairua Stream is a bit harder to get to as you have to get a boat across Lake Tarawera, making it a local’s paradise. It is near Te Rata Bay and is one of the most picturesque hot pools near Rotorua. Location: About 25 minutes out of Rotorua down Spencer Road, Lake Tarawera. By boat, launch at Stoney Point and head straight across Lake Tarawera to the headlands on the right of Mt Tarawera. Go straight through these headlands to where the lake opens. Steer gently to starboard and make for the only beach in this area. 3. Wai-o-Tapu / The Bridge / The Secret Spot When it comes to Rotorua hot pools, it does not get more popular thank this one. Funnily enough, it is supposed to be a secret. Get the remnants from the Wai-O-Tapu geothermal attraction by bathing in the hot pool formed by the hot Wai-O-Tapu stream meeting the cool river. It’s a thermal pool, completely natural and completely free! Location: Just outside the Wai-O-Tapu geothermal park (under the bridge). 30km south of Rotorua just off State Highway 5. -

Over the Years
OVER THE YEARS A HISTORY OF THE RURAL COMMUNITY HALLS IN THE ROTORUA DISTRICT FOREWORD Nau mai, Haere mai, There are nine rural community halls in the Rotorua District, at Broadlands, Kaharoa, Mamaku, Ngakuru, Ngongotaha, Okareka, Reporoa, Rerewhakaaitu, and Waikite. Volunteers have driven the development and maintenance of these vital community facilities, which have been the focus for community functions and gatherings for many years. In 2001, Rotorua District Council awarded certificates of appreciation to many of these volunteers for their tireless efforts to sustain the upkeep of their local halls. This booklet was commissioned by the District Council to record the history of Rotorua’s rural halls, for both archival and community interest. Information was compiled in the latter months of 2002 by Marlana Maru, a Year 2 Bachelor of Applied Social Science student from the Waiariki Institute of Technology. RDC Social Research Officer Paul Killerby undertook additional editing and formatting. Marlana and I would like to thank the many local informants whose memories and impressions contributed to this booklet. In particular we would like to thank Barbara Blackburn, Peter Blackburn, Andy Burnett, Mary Burnett, David Fleet, Lyn Fleet, Maxine Greenslade, Triss Hill, Wally Hope, Marie Jepsen, Noeleen Martelli, Verna Martelli, Pam Murray, Jim Nicholson, Norman Reichardt, Rei Reichardt, Arthur Roe, Don Sandilands, and Chris Stevens. We would welcome any further background information on the halls listed in this booklet, which will be recorded and utilised in any further update of the publication.

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. -

Regional resistivity measurements and fluid chemistry surveys suggest that the Reporoa system is a lateral outflow of hot water from the Waiotapu Geothermal System to the north-east. A deep exploratory drillhole, encountered a sequence of lacustrine sediments, volcanic, tuffaceous and ignimbritic rocks. The well was discharged in October 1966, but was shut down after 5 hours during which time wellhead pressure fell from to Downhole temperatures in were measured after 47 days of heating and showed a significanttemperature inversion between and which is interpreted to be caused by hot water at about depth flowing above a cooler water influx.

New Zcaland 2. TAUPO VOLCANIC ZONE The Taupo Volcanic Zone Fig. 1) is the consequence of plate subduction beneath the North Island of New Zcaland. ABSTRACT The thin continental crust (-15 km, Stem and Davey, 1987) spreads at rates up to 18 (Darby and Williams, 1991) Silicic calderas and geothermal systems in Taupo Volcanic in active rifting and subsidence. Since c. 1.6 Ma, the Zone (TVZ) of New Zealand are spatially related. Eight calderas, central TVZ has been the most frequently active and productive active since 1.6 Ma, occupy 45% of the Boundaries of region of rhyolitic volcanism on earth (Houghton et al., 1994). calderas arc often speculative, but of 20 geothermal systems producing an estimated 10 - 15 of rhyolite, and considercd, 15 occur on or next to a caldera margin where there is subordinate dacite, andesite and basalt. Debate continues whether enhanced deep permeability: the best examples are at Haroharo TVZ is a migrating andesitic arc and zone of asymmetric crustal where systems occur at the intersection of volcanic lineations and spreading (eg. Stem, or an andesite-dacite arc with bimodal caldera embayments, and at Rotorua. Drillhole evidence supports rhyolite-basalt back arc (eg. Cole, 1990). Whichever is the case, a realignment of caldera margin through the Wairakei- it is a matter of observation that most geothermal fields are geothermal field.

The Taupo Eruption Sequence of AD 232±10 in Aotearoa New
地学雑誌 Journal of Geography(Chigaku Zasshi) 130(1)117141 2021 doi:10.5026/jgeography.130.117 The 100s: Significant Exposures of the World( No. 12) The Taupō Eruption Sequence of AD 232 ± 10 in Aotearoa New Zealand: A Retrospection * * David J. LOWE and Adrian PITTARI [Received 9 June, 2020; Accepted 13 August, 2020] Abstract The Taupō eruption, also known as eruption Y, occurred in late summer to early autumn (typically late March to early April) in AD 232 10 yr at Taupō volcano, an ‘inverse’ caldera volcano underlying Lake Taupō in the central Taupō Volcanic Zone, North Island, Aotearoa New Zealand. The complex rhyolitic eruption, the most powerful eruption globally in the last 5000 years, lasted between several days and several weeks and generated five markedly contrasting pyroclastic fall deposits( units Y1 to Y5) followed by the extremely violent emplacement of a low-aspect-ratio ignimbrite( unit Y6). The fall deposits include three phreatomagmatic units, Y1, Y3, and Y4, the latter two being the products of archetypal phreatoplinian events; and two magmatic units, Y2 and Y5, the latter being the product of an exceptionally powerful plinian (previously described as ‘ultraplinian’) event with an extreme magma discharge rate around 108 to 1010 kg s-1. The pyroclastic fall-generating eruptions were followed by the climactic emplace- ment of the entirely non-welded Taupō ignimbrite( Y6). It was generated by the catastrophic collapse of the 35 to 40-km-high plinian eruption column( Y5) that produced a very-fast-moving (600 to 900 km h-1), hot( up to 500°C) pyroclastic flow( density current) that covered about 20,000 km2 of central North Island over a near-circular area ~160 km in diameter, centred on Lake Taupō, in fewer than about ten to 15 minutes.
