'In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit: This single sentence, coined

by J.R.R. Tolkien in the early 1930s, was the beginning of a story that would unexpectedly take New Zealand by storm.

From this humble sentence. the novel we know today as The Hobbit was born . The first edit ion was published in 1937 and sold out in only two months. It has since been republ ished many times aroun d the world. and its sequel The Lord of the Rings gave Tolkien fans further insights into the characters and places that make up Middle-ear th.

The trilogy generated US$2.9 billi on in worl dwide box-office receipts. Most importantly, it put New Zealand on the world stage. and establis hed Aotearoa as the 'Home of Middle-earth '.

From Academy Award* -winning filmm aker Peter Jackson comes The Hobb it : An Unexpec ted Jo urney. the firs t of a tr ilogy of film s adaptin g the endurin gly popular maste rpiece The Hobb it . by J.R.R.

The second coin in New Zealand Post's three-year 'Kiwi Treasures' series has arrived, and combines the iconic kiwi with Tane Mahuta - New Zealand 's largest living kauri tree.

New Zealand's kauri history Kauri forests were prevalent when the first people arrived in New Zealand. From the far north of Nor thland to Te Kauri, near Kawhia. these magnificent forests covered approximately 1.2 million hectares.

Among the world 's mightiest trees , giant kauri were considered by Maori to be the kings of the forest. Kauri timber was used by Maor i for waka !canoel buil ding [due to the floating nature of the wcodl, carvi ng and building houses. They also made use of the gum to start fires and for chewing lafter it had been soaked in water and mixed with the milk of the puha plant],

of the life- giving waters of the land. It is believed that the descendants of Tuputupu whenua, known as Ngai Tuputupuwhenua, and the descendants of his wife Kui, Te Tini-o-Kui Ithe ma ny of Kui!. were the earliest occupants of the Waipoua Forest. These are the guardians of Tane Mahuta: Lor d of the Forest.

It has been speculated that Tane Mahuta sprang from a seed 1.500 to 2,000 years ago. The main trunk stretches for almost 18 metres with a total heigh t of approximately 45.2 metr es land still growingJl

The kiwi and Tane Mahuta together The Waipoua Forest is an important refuge for threatened wil dlife. including the North Island brown kiwi . New Zealand's pr ecious kiwi and Tane Mahuta are feature d together on the 2013 Kiwi Treasures coin issue.

Consisting of a 0.9999 gold coin. a silver proof coin and a silver specimen coin , this is a series to be cherishe d, and each coin is a beauti ful me mento of two of New Zealand's most significant tr easur es.

When Europeans visite d New Zealand in the late 1700s they too saw the potential in kaur i for shipbuilding and construction . Logging began, and by the mi d- 1800s sawmilling was a significan t industry that would decimat e New Zealand's magnificent kauri forest s. Demand for farmland and timber increased in the early and mid 20th century , meaning more clea rin g of the great kauri tr ees.

Tane Mahuta - a true survivor Due to its remoteness, the Waipoua Forest of Northland Ion the west coast north of Dargavillel largely escaped destruction . Public pressure for total pro tection of the forest increasingly grew throughout the 20th century and in 1952 the Waipoua Sanctuary was finally declared. All remaining kauri forests in Crown lands came under the protect ion of the Department of Conservation by 1987.

Today the Waipoua Forest is administered by the Department of Conservation and Te Roroa who are the local iwi who trace their history in the forest to Tuputupuwhenua, the ancestor who emerged from the ground as a spring gushing from the earth, the source

A transformation in retail In the past 12 months New Zealand Post has been trialling a simplified sending range for parcels in our stores on the Kapiti Coast, just north of Wellington .

The feedback told us that the simplified range was good but not right for everyone. So in response to this and a huge amount of research, we have made some changes.

Firstly we have made some minor adjustments to the Kapiti range by adding a bag size and reintroducing the ability for customers to use their own packaging for small items. The range will continue to include courier options using the upgra de system .

In addition to this change we have developed a differ ent par cel ra nge that we call version 2.0 and are tria lling that in the Blenheim r egion fro m 8 October. This will allow us to test some other ideas. You can visi t www.nzpost.co.nz/marlborough for a full breakdown of the 2.0 trial range from 17 September. We will be asking for customer feedback and running research during the tr ial. as we are in Kapiti.

The essence of the trial range is the upgrading model we have introduced . which means a customer. using the same prepaid bag. can choose to upgrade the way they want their parcel sent. This model means we don't have to have so many bag options available and so can streamline our sending range to make everyday thin gs easier for our customers. The range inclu des three boxes and four bags.

8

If s important for New Zealand Post to ref ine and test our sending range as much as possible to ensure that we've got a range that is simple and convenient for customers to understand and use. Once the trials are completed we will be launch ing the simplified sending range mid next year to the whole of New Zealand.

A new look for collectables Collecta bles still have a strong presence in the Paraparaumu Branch. Take a look at the new-look collectables boar d on the image above.

REAL wearable art The team at REAL Aotearoa Wellington are big fans of the annual phenomenon which is the World of WearableArtl M • This year they've played a part in helping a group of creative students from Onslow College to create a unique design with a focus on stamps.

This exciting project involved the st udents design ing and creating a garment to displ ay in the REAL Aotearoa shop wi ndow in Well ington. After meeting with th e Wellington REAL Aotear oa team , the st udents happened upon a Jere my Cole lamp shade that they decided to use as inspira tion for the garmen t's form and shape, The studen ts met regularl y with the REAL Aotearoa team , who provi ded feedback along the way and helpe d

steer the dire ct ion of the design , They were also lucky enough to meet with Weta expert and WearableArt winner Claire Prebble, who helped inspire the students.

The team in Whanganui supplied the students with stamps depict ing the Christchurch Cathedral from the 2011 Yearof the Rabbit stamp issue . The stamps are intricately sewn on to the fabric, creating a stamp themed masterpiece.

The design was entered in a competition run by the World of WearableAr tT M for the best retail window display, which was gr eat mo tivation for the students to have the design lookin g poli shed and pro fessio nal. The finished design was n' t rea dy to photograph for this issue of Focus, but take a look at the development images below.

Why New Zealand Post must be allowed to change In 1998 Jenny Shipley was Prime Minister, the Spice Girls had a number one single and Taine Randell was captain of the All Blacks. 1998 was also the Last time that the ru les governing postal services in New Zealand were reviewed.

The regulat ions and service commi tmen ts that guide New Zealand Post to this day date back to that preFacebook, pre -Twitter era whe n social media was just a concept and a mere 200 households in New Zealand had broadband. These regulations are outlined in a document called the Deed of Understanding - a document that is fast being consigned to history by the digital revolution.

A lot has happened in the intervening 14 years - and most of it has been bad news for New Zealand Post's traditional letter mail and retail businesses. There has been a fundamental shift in the way Kiwis share information , communicate, shop and store documents.

Thats had a significa nt im pact on New Zealand Posts business, which continues to be constrai ned by the 1990s'regula tion .

The numbers don't make pretty reading; •

Mail volumes have fallen 24 percent in the past decade - that"s 261 million fewer pieces of mail through the New Zealand Post network .

•

Those mail volumes are forecast to fall by another 215 million pieces in the next five years.

•

In the past financial year, mail volumes have plu mme ted 7 perce nt - the fastest rate of decl ine in New Zealand postal history.

•

If New Zealand Post doesn't change its model, the postal side of the business will be losin g mo ney from 2016, with losses of more than $75 million per annum by 2020.

New Zealand Post has worked hard to stri p out cost, become more efficient and change its product offerings to address these trends. But as New Zealand Post Chairman Sir Michael Cullen has stated, "We are out of short- term fixes".

The 1998 Deed worke d as a framewo rk for services for the people of New Zealand and New Zealand Post as a business before the turn of the century , but it"s not the document to serve them now or in the futu re.

10

New Zealand Post has put a proposal to the Government, seeking flexibility around delivery frequency and refin ing the postal outlet network to match current and future market and customer behaviour .

Curre ntly New Zealand Post is obliged to provide six- day-a-week delivery to more than 95 percent of delivery point s. There simply won't be the letter mail volumes to support that level of service in the future witho ut incu rri ng lar ge losses or imposing frequent and signi ficant price increases on senders .

New Zealand Posts proposal reflects a comm itment to providing a viable physical delivery network while still providing daily delivery services for time -critical items, but in the years to come a frequency of standard letter mail delivery that matches demand , We're not about to dump change on New Zealanders - we're talki ng to our mai l consumers, big and small sending customers , sector groups such as rural and the elderly , and other community orga nisations to ensure that the solution we land on works for them and us, The key thing is that New Zealand Post needs to be given the flexibility now so it can plan for the future.

When change does come in the years to come, it will be well signalled and we'll ensure that a new, alternative means of delivering services is in place, As part of the pr ocess the Government calls for public submissio ns on the discussio n document. This helps inform the decision-making in pr oducing a new agreement between New Zealand Post and the Government to provide Kiwi com mu nities and businesses with postal delivery and outle t services that can not only survive in a ra pidly changing world, but prosper.
