Boulder Beach

Boulder Beach is a rocky beach on the Pacific Ocean, located on the south side of Otago Peninsula, some 15.7 kilometres (9.8 mi) by road east from central Dunedin, New Zealand. In addition to being relatively difficult to access physically due to the steepness of the surrounding country, it is closed to the public in the summer months (November–February) to protect the yellow-eyed penguins that nest on it. Physical geography Boulder Beach is approximately 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) long, facing almost exactly due south. Near the eastern end a stretch of about 200 metres (660 ft) is sandy; the remainder is covered in boulders, hence the beach's name. To the west the beach ends with the rise of Highcliff, for which the neighbouring suburb of Dunedin is named; Highcliff becomes Pudneys Cliff further west, and ends at Māori Head, beyond which lie Smaills Beach and Tomahawk Beach. To the east Boulder Beach is truncated by a series of headlands which culminate in Seal Point, followed by Sandfly Bay. Northward the land rises steeply to Highcliff Hill, Patrons Hill, and Sandymount. A river called Robertsons Creek flows off Sandymount to cross Boulder Beach about halfway along its length. Though the upper areas of the slopes are farmed, the lower parts near the beach itself are scrubby and partly forested. Highcliff Tracks Access to Boulder Beach is via the Highcliff Track system. Highcliff Track begins at the end of McMeeking Road, a side-street off Karetai Road, and follows the contours of the land to meet Braidwood Track, a pedestrian extension of Braidwood Road (itself accessible from Seal Point Road) at Robertsons Creek. Karetai Road and Seal Point Road both meet Highcliff Road at the top of the hill. Boulder Beach Track itself follows Robertsons Creek down to the beach. Alternative access to Highcliff Track can be reached via Buskin Track or Paradise Road Track, both leading down from Highcliff Road. Wildlife conservation Boulder Beach is often visited by New Zealand fur seals and New Zealand sea lions. The scrub adjacent to the beach is a favoured nesting spot for yellow-eyed penguins, and since these birds are very shy about nesting or breeding where they may be seen by humans, Boulder Beach Track has been closed to the public during their breeding season since 2005, initially from December to February, but more recently from November to February. Boulder Beach conservation is administered by the Department of Conservation (DOC) in two blocks: Boulder Beach / Highcliff Block and Boulder Beach / WWF Block. Recreational use The Highcliff Track system is popular with trampers, and considered moderately challenging. Boulder Beach is considered a reasonably consistent surfing beach, offering both left- and right-hand waves. It is occasionally used by naturists for nude sunbathing. New Zealand has no official nude beaches, as public nudity is legal on any beach where it is "known to occur". References
Forêt de séquoias, Whakarewarewa

La forêt de séquoias côtiers de Whakarewarewa est située à la périphérie de la ville de Rotorua, en Nouvelle-Zélande. C'est dans la zone thermale du site que le reboisement de cette forêt grande d'une superficie de 6 hectares, 15 acres, s'est effectué avec des séquoias californiens. La parcelle fait partie de la plus grande forêt d'État de Whakarewarewa dans la région géothermique de la zone volcanique de Taupo. Historique Les séquoias côtiers californiens (Sequoia sempervirens) ont été plantés au début du XXe siècle dans le cadre d'un programme visant à évaluer la viabilité de diverses espèces d'arbres exotiques pour la reforestation de la Nouvelle-Zélande. Par la suite, ces arbres ont poussé plus vite qu'en Californie, leur pays d'origine, en raison du sol néozélandais plus fertile et du fait que les précipitations sont plus élevées dans la région, ils ont atteint une hauteur de plus de 70 m, 100 ans après leur plantation. Le séquoia le plus haut de la forêt mesure 75 m de haut. Redwood Memorial Grove, une zone protégée La zone, également appelée "Redwood Memorial Grove", est maintenant protégée : elle est devenue populaire par son côté récréatif, ses pistes de vélo tout-terrain et la passerelle de la canopée Redwoods Treewalk suspendue entre les troncs des séquoias. Au-dessus de la passerelle, des sculptures de lanternes en bois sont également suspendues entre les grands troncs d'arbres. La nuit, ceux-ci sont éclairés et des spots colorés illuminent une partie de la végétation du sol forestier et des fougères arborescentes. La forêt abrite également des espèces d'oiseaux menacées telles que le faucon de Nouvelle-Zélande, le merle de l'île du Nord et parfois Whitehead (oiseau). Depuis lors, à la périphérie aride de la forêt principale où les touristes font du vélo, des centaines de jeunes arbres de séquoia âgés de un à cinq ans y ont été plantés pour étendre non seulement la forêt, mais aussi l'espace de vie des animaux qui y nichent et y vivent.

Braemar Hospital

Braemar Hospital is one of the New Zealand's largest private hospitals. It is owned by the Braemar Charitable Trust located in Hamilton, New Zealand. There was a separate and unrelated organisation, Braemar Hospital in Nelson, New Zealand which provided long term psychiatric care for children. It was founded in 1926 and moved from Lake Road in 2009. The hospital is located on Ohaupo Road, Melville. It carries out 10,000 surgical and medical procedures a year. It started a bowel-cancer screening service in 2014. In 2015 it had 85 beds, eight theatres and two endoscopy units. It was the first private hospital in New Zealand to offer endoscopic ultrasound and the first hospital in Australasia to install ultra high-definition imaging tools in the operating theatres, which enabled it to expand the range of keyhole surgery. It says that the fees charged "are very reasonable and any surplus we make goes back into the hospital or the charitable activities that we do, like supplying free surgery and supporting doctors and nurses with ongoing education." Hamilton City Council's proposed long-term plan would involve raising its rates by $355,400, compounded by a proposed transition from a land value to capital value rating system which chief executive Paul Bennett says would cause considerable problems. The hospital's annual rates bill was $52,550 in 2014/15. It initiated a $20 million expansion plan in 2015, driven by the demand for orthopaedic surgery from the aging population. Facilities The hospital provides 85 beds in both its hospitals. References

Bromley Cemetery

Bromley Cemetery is a cemetery in Christchurch, New Zealand. It occupies approximately 10 hectares to the east of the city centre, on the corner of Keighleys Road and Linwood Avenue. The Christchurch City Council maintains and administers the cemetery. History The Christchurch City Council searched for additional cemetery land beginning in 1913, and opened Bromley Cemetery for burials in July 1918. Later that year the cemetery became the main burial place for fatalities of the 1918 flu pandemic from the eastern side of the city. The cemetery has two rows of Royal New Zealand Returned and Services' Association (RSA) interments, and the Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC) has records of 109 burials at Bromley, 15 from World War I and 94 from World War II. In addition, the CWGC commemorates 33 Commonwealth service personnel cremated at Bromley Crematorium during World War II. On the eve of Anzac Day 2008, over 160 headstones of veterans were painted over for maintenance to improve the inscriptions, which received criticism from visitors and the RSA due to the timing. The cemetery is full and only accepts burials to existing plots or ash interments. Notable burials John Beanland (1866–1943), 36th Mayor of Christchurch Annette Clifford (1881–1968), Christchurch property owner and landlord H. H. Clifford (1872–1949), photographer Ted Howard (1868–1939), Labour Party MP Mabel Howard (1894–1972), Labour Party MP Arthur Rhodes (1859–1922), member of parliament and 24th Mayor of Christchurch William Trethewey (1892–1956), sculptor and monumental mason References External links Official website Bromley Cemetery on the Christchurch City Council website Christchurch City Council Cemeteries Database

It is located at 130 Te Awe Awe Street in the city of Palmerston North. Completed in 1892, it is named after William Caccia Birch and his wife Maude, who gifted the property to the government in 1941. The property, owned by Palmerston North City Council, and operates as a conference and events venue on a cost-recovery basis. The Coach House Museum includes photos of the property's previous owners. History The dwelling was designed by Danish-born architect Ludolph Georg West for Norwegian settler Jacob Nannestad and his wife Anna. In 1903, Englishman John Henderson Pollock Strang and his wife Mary purchased the property and named it "Woodhey". It became the temporary residence of the Governor-General of New Zealand, Lord Plunket, after a 1907 fire destroyed Parliament buildings. In 1921, William Caccia Birch purchased the property; he was the adopted son of William Birch and Ethel Birch. In 1937, a portion of the property, the Hokowhitu Lagoon, was given to the Palmerston North City Council while the rest of the property was given to the government in 1940. The Caccia Birch House was used by the military during the Second World War and subsequently became a convalescent home for servicewomen and nurses. It was used as an educational institution during the period from 1960 to 1976. In 1983, it was given to the city council. The Caccia Birch Trust Board was formed in 1989, and in 1992, it was turned into a conference and function centre. Geography The original property included a part of the Hokowhitu (Centennial) Lagoon. It is currently a 3 acres (1.2 ha) public property that overlooks the lagoon. It is 10 minutes from the airport.

Catedral de la Santísima Trinidad (Auckland)

La Catedral de la Santísima Trinidad (en inglés: Holy Trinity Cathedral) está situada en Parnell, un suburbio residencial de Auckland, Nueva Zelanda. El primer lugar de culto anglicano en Auckland fue la antigua iglesia de San Pablo, en la parte inferior de Princes Street, pero los residentes Parnell estaban cansados de caminar unos 3 km (1,9 millas) a través de potreros para llegar a su iglesia. La antigua Iglesia de Santa María fue demolida y en 1886 comenzó a trabajarse en el terreno contrario para construir una nueva Iglesia Catedral de Santa María. Esta iglesia de madera de estilo gótico fue diseñada por el destacado arquitecto de Nueva Zelanda Benjamin Mountfort​ y se terminó en 1897. El edificio sirvió como la Iglesia Catedral y la principal Iglesia Anglicana de Auckland hasta 1973, cuando la catedral de la Santísima Trinidad, cuya primera piedra fue colocada en 1957, entró en uso. En 1982 la iglesia de Santa María se trasladó al otro lado de Parnell Road a su actual emplazamiento junto a la Catedral.
