Taihape Area School

Taihape Area School is a state composite coeducational school located in Taihape, Manawatū-Whanganui, New Zealand. It is located on 26 Huia St. The school has a roll of 244 students as of August 2017 and provides education for students in years 1–13. History Taihape Area School was formed in 2009 after Taihape's primary and secondary schools amalgamated. It was officially opened in October 2009 by former Minister of Education Trevor Mallard and local Rangitikei MP Simon Power. The reason for the amalgamation between the two schools was budget-based because of a decline in student numbers. Between its establishment in 2009 and 2010 the principal was Boyce Davey and since 2010 it is Richard McMillan. Enrolment As of March 2026, Taihape Area School has a roll of 254 students, of which 178 (70.1%) identify as Māori. As of 2026, the school has an Equity Index of 514, placing it amongst schools whose students have many socioeconomic barriers to achievement (roughly equivalent to deciles 2 and 3 under the former socio-economic decile system). Facilities The school was described by former principal Davey as "one of the most technologically advanced schools built in New Zealand". All 29 of its learning spaces are provided with large interactive touch sensitive whiteboards linked to computer systems. In August 2024, it was revealed that some schools around the country were earthquake prone. On 15 August 2024, it was reported that the school's main teaching block and gym have a 15 percent seismic rating and that the buildings have been leaking since they opened. This was reported a day after Wellington Girls' College students protested outside Parliament after a teaching block in their school was closed due to having a 15 percent seismic rating. The Ministry of Education plans for Taihape Area School include demolishing and rebuilding the main teaching block and strengthening the gym sometime in 2025.

Van Asch College

Das Van Asch Deaf Education Centre (auch Van Asch College) in Sumner, Christchurch, Neuseeland ist eine Schule für gehörlose Kinder. Die Schule wurde im Jahr 1880 gegründet und ist nach eigenen Angaben die erste gänzlich staatlich finanzierte Gehörlosenschule der Welt. In den 1950er und 1960er Jahren war die Philosophie der Schule, die Schüler anzuhalten, statt der Neuseeländischen Gebärdensprache Lippenlesen und Lautsprache zu benutzen. Heute wird allerdings wieder die Neuseeländische Gebärdensprache, Neuseelands dritte offizielle Sprache, unterrichtet. Im Jahr 1995 wurde die ehemals Sumner School for the Deaf genannte Schule zu Ehren ihres ersten Schulleiters Gerrit van Asch umbenannt. Weblinks Website Van Asch College Einzelnachweise
Victoria Forest Park

Victoria Forest Park ist ein Waldschutzgebiet in der Region West Coast im Norden der Südinsel Neuseelands. Mit 206.000 Hektar ist er der größte Forest Park des Landes. Geografie und Geologie Auf dem Gebiet des Parkes liegen zwei ausgedehnte Gebirgsketten, die Victoria Range im Osten und die Brunner Range im Westen. Die Gebirgsketten bestehen aus stark gefaltetem und von Störungen durchzogener Grauwacke und Tonschiefer, die bei Reefton goldführenden Quarz enthalten. Das Gebiet wird vom Inangahua River im Westen und vom Maruia River entwässert, die beide in den nördlich des Parks verlaufenden Buller River münden. Der Upper Grey River verläuft am Südrand des Parks. Der Park ist von mehreren Highways umgeben, die allerdings im Ausbauzustand einer deutschen Bundesstraße entsprechen. Im Osten verläuft der State Highway 65, im Norden ein Abschnitt des State Highway 6, im Westen der State Highway 69 und der State Highway 7, der von Reefton bis Springs Junction den Park durchschneidet. Im Park selbst gibt es ein Netz von Wegen, die oft in der zeit der bergbaulichen Nutzung der Gegend angelegt wurden. Das Gelände des Parks ist weitgehend unbewohnter Wald. Flora und Fauna Der Wald wird durch Rotbuche und mehrere Arten Scheinbuchen, darunter Silberne Scheinbuche, Bergbuche (Nothofagus solandri var. solandri), Schwarzbuche (Nothofagus solandri var. cliffortioides) und Hartbuche (Nothofagus truncata) dominiert. Die Vogelwelt umfasst unter anderem Tui Korimako (Anthornis melanura), Maorischnäpper, Kaka und Papageien sowie den Haastkiwi. Geschichte In der Gegend war nur wenig von den Māori besiedelt. Der erste europäische Siedler 1861, der sich dauerhaft hier niederließ, war der Farmer Samuel Mackley. 1870 später begann man in dem Gebiet südlich von Reefton goldhaltigen Quarz abzubauen. In den ersten 18 Monaten wurden 50 Minen registriert. Die größte der Minen war die bis 1951 betriebene Mine Waiuta. Reefton erlebte dadurch ein starkes Wachstum, da für den Bergbau Lebensmittel, Holz und Kohle benötigt wurden. Reefton wurde 1872 an das Telegraphennetz angeschlossen und war 1888 der erste Ort Neuseelands mit elektrischer Straßenbeleuchtung. Ein durch Ocean Gold Ltd. betriebenes Goldbergwerk befindet sich östlich von Reefton. Auch Kohle wird weiter abgebaut. Tourismus Der Park wird zum Goldwaschen, Bergsteigen, Jagd. Mountain Bikefahren, Ausflüge mit Allradfahrzeugen und Wandern genutzt. Die Wanderwege reichen von kurzen Ausflügen bis zu mehrtägigen Wanderungen. Mehrere kleine Hütten im Park bieten Unterkunft. In dem Gebiet befinden sich Überreste der früheren Bergbauaktivitäten. Einzelnachweise
