Cover Design & Layout by Barrie Eady. 3 ‘On Our Way” is the story of Methodism in the Hutt Valley seen against a background of social change which has continuously affected the past 150 years. The book starts in pre-European times and traces the arrival of various waves of settlers and their attempts to set up churches in their new home. The eleven authors have researched widely over the past two years and provided an insight often lacking in chronological works. Generously illustrated and indexed, this book is a worthwhile addition to the historical records of the people of Lower Hutt. Pitt Henrich, designer and maker of the Pulpit Fall depicted on the cover of I this book, speaks of her work in this way — “This church wanted me to show how their work as Methodists with a tradition of social concern could go out from the church in the Hutt Valley to people everywhere.

  • Activity of Birds in the Western Hutt Hills, New Zealand
    Notornis, 2000, Vol. 47: 13-35 0029-4470 0 The Ornithological Society of New Zealand, Inc. 2000 Activity of birds in the Western Hutt Hills, New Zealand JOHN A. GIBB 3 Wairere Road, Lower Hun, New Zealand j.gibb@ c1ea~net.n~ Abstract This paper describes the activity of garden, bush and riverine birds in the Western Hutt hills, 1981-92. The area is 15 km north of Wellington, 7 !an north of the Hutt River estuary, and 15 !an south of Pauatahanui Inlet, Porirua Harbour, on the southwest coast of the North Island. Observation is based on 35 years' residence and >12 500 10-min counts conducted between 1981 and 1992. Species first seen each day are distinguished from those first heard. Whenever possible the birds' food was recorded. The western hills have fewer native passerines than similar habitat on the eastern hills. Several species increased or decreased during the study. Some apparent decline was attributed to the author's hearing loss. Wind reduced bird detection. Nectar of New Zealand flax (Phormium spp.) was eaten by silvereyes (Zosterops lateralis),tui (Prosthemaderanovaeseelandiae) and starlings (Sturnus vulgaris) at different times. In the study area there were about 0.9 cats (Felis catus) per household, a potential predator on birds. Gibb, J.A. 2000. Bird activity in the Western Hutt Hills, Wellington, New Zealand. Notornis 47(1): 13-35. Keywords bird activity; detection; counts; garden; forest; river; food; voice; house cats INTRODUCTION hills (41°12'S, 174'55'E), is 150 m. a.s.l., 15 krn north I began this study because I was curious how birds used of Wellington, 7 km north of the Hutt River estuary, and the habitat between Lower Hutt city and bush along the 15 krn south of Pauatahanui at the head of Porirua Harbour Western Hutt hills.

  • Level 3 Chamber of Commerce House 15 Daly Street Lower Hutt Wellington 5010 New Zealand 30 April 2021 Hon Michael Wood Minister
    Level 3 Chamber of Commerce House 15 Daly Street Lower Hutt Wellington 5010 New Zealand 30 April 2021 Hon Michael Wood Minister of Transport By email; [email protected] Dear Minister, NZ Upgrade Programme – Melling Interchange The Board and membership of the Hutt Valley Chamber of Commerce and Industry is alarmed and deeply disappointed to read recent media articles regarding the inclusion of Melling Interchange in the Government’s reassessment of infrastructure development projects. As you may be aware the Hutt Valley Chamber has been calling for the re-development of the Melling Interchange with SH2 for many years. As a national roading project the current Melling/SH2 intersection is completely inadequate, causing traffic bottlenecks daily and regular accidents. It is a crucial piece of local infrastructure that is a constant chokepoint for all our businesses trying to move people, materials and products around the valley, the region, and nationally. It is an economic drain on our local Hutt Valley economy as well as the wider Wellington region and continues to get worse every year. However, it is not a stand alone transport project. The redevelopment of the SH2/Melling interchange underpins the greater RiverLink project which completely transforms the Lower Hutt city centre. RiverLink is regarded as a shining example of how Waka Kotahi, the Greater Wellington Regional Council and the Hutt City Council can work collaboratively, leveraging combined budgets to deliver a single project in a cohesive manner. It includes improving public transport to the city centre with upgraded railway infrastructure, new active transport modes with cycling and walking, as well as enabling new housing options for city centre residents.
