Kaihu Valley and the Ripiro West Coast to South Hokianga
~ 1 ~ KAIHU THE DISTRICT NORTH RIPIRO WEST COAST SOUTH HOKIANGA HISTORY AND LEGEND REFERENCE JOURNAL FOUR EARLY CHARACTERS PART ONE 1700-1900 THOSE WHO STAYED AND THOSE WHO PASSED THROUGH Much has been written by past historians about the past and current commercial aspects of the Kaipara, Kaihu Valley and the Hokianga districts based mostly about the mighty Kauri tree for its timber and gum but it would appear there has not been a lot recorded about the “Characters” who made up these districts. I hope to, through the following pages make a small contribution to the remembrance of some of those main characters and so if by chance I miss out on anybody that should have been noted then I do apologise to the reader.

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. -

Draft Historic Account Te Rarawa Settlement July 2011
Draft Historic account Te Rarawa settlement July 2011 The purpose of this draft document is to provide the opportunity for Te Rarawa hapu/marae to have input into the historic account that summarises the history of the relationship between Te Rarawa and the Crown from 1840-1992. The historic account will be subject to negotiation and agreement between Te Rarawa and the Crown before being included as part of the Deed of Settlement. This document is yet to be agreed to by Te Rarawa or the Crown. There are a few areas yet to be developed (see p.59) You are invited to peruse the document and make comment back to the Negotiations team by the 15th August, 2011 on the following matters: Are the main grievances for your hapu adequately captured in the account? Are there any factual errors? Are there any gaps to be filled? Please provide any comments or write them directly on the draft. For further information please contact any of the Negotiations or Historic Research Team: Paul White [email protected] Aroha Harris [email protected] Joe Cooper [email protected] Haami Piripi [email protected] Malcolm Peri [email protected] Kevin Robinson [email protected] Draft Te Rarawa Historic Account, July 2011 Page 1 Draft Te Rarawa Historic Account, July 2011 Page 2 Section one He Whakaputanga and Te Tiriti o Waitangi 1. The 1830s marked the early beginnings of engagement between Te Rarawa and the British Crown. Te Rarawa was part of an emergent Maori nation that was forming in the years prior to 1840 and this is evidenced in formal letters, ceremonies and meetings with British dignitaries in Australia and England at that time. -
