World’s Biggest Totara “Pouākani” located on Wairarapa Moana Incorporation lands near Mangakino is the world’s biggest totara, according to Te Ara – the Encyclopaedia of New Zealand.1 This magnificent totara is located between Mangakino and the Pureora Forest turn off on State Highway 30, and a 20-minute bush track across Wairarapa Moana Incorporation lands. It is located within a stone’s throw of our Ford Road, Dairy Support Unit. How old is our living taonga? Some say “Pouàkani” is about 1,800 years,2 dating back to the last major volcanic eruption that showered the Pureora district with ash. This year Wairarapa Moana Incorporation, following discussions with Mangakino whànau, will be removing the current barriers around Pouàkani, and building a new perimeter. This means whànau and manuhiri won’t be able to get quite as close, but we are doing this to better protect and support our taonga through the next 1000 years. In addition to the new barrier, the Incorporation will also be building a viewing platform including seating, new signage and supporting an upgrade of the track, and pest and weed control. The Committee of Management would like to thank our Mangakino whànau for their work in supporting us all to fulfil our kaitiaki responsibilities. 1 Maggie Wassilieff, ‘Conifers – Tōtara group’, Te Ara – the Encyclopaedia of

Wai 85 update In February 2022 the Supreme Court heard the Wairarapa Moana Incorporation (WMI) appeal of the High Court decision that under the State Owned Enterprises and Treaty of Waitangi Act land can only be returned to mana whenua. The process takes time, and we are not expecting a judgement by the Supreme Court until the second half of this year. On the eve of our hearing by the Supreme Court, the Crown introduced Te Rohe o Rongokako Joint Redress and the Ngàti Kahungunu ki Wairarapa Tàmaki nui-à-Rua Claim Settlement Bills to Parliament. The Ngàti Kahungunu ki Wairarapa Tàmaki nui-à-Rua Claims Settlement Bill had its first reading on 11 May 2022. It is this Bill which when passed into law will extinguish our Wai 85 claim. WMI was encouraged by the kòrero of some of the opposition members in their first reading speeches. Joseph Mooney, National Party, mentioned the recommendation from the Waitangi Tribunal that the settlement not proceed at this time as it raises concerns as to WMI rights to due process before the courts and the durability of the settlement.1 Dr Elizabeth Kerekere, Green Party, described the Crown action to introduce legislation that once passed will extinguish the rights of parties in front of the Supreme
Court, as “unprecedented”. She went on to remind her colleagues that the Crown is not a neutral party in this litigation.2 As an act of opposition to Crown actions, the Green Party abstained on the vote to refer this Bill to the Màori Affairs Committee. Wairarapa Moana Incorporation does not wish to hold up the Ngàti Kahungunu ki Wairarapa Tàmaki nui-à-Rua settlement. We have simply asked the Government to remove Wai 85 from the Deed of Settlement and the Ngàti Kahungunu ki Wairarapa Tàmaki nui-à-Rua Claims Settlement Bill. Only WMI and its owners can settle Wai 85. This was confirmed by the Waitangi Tribunal in its November 2021 report. Submissions to the Màori Affairs Committee on the Ngàti Kahungunu ki Wairarapa Tàmaki nui-à-Rua Claims Settlement Bill close on 22 June 2022.

More memories – Later 1970s John Stevens, who was the Incorporation’s lawyer at the time, reflects on major issues facing the owners in the latter part of the 1970s.
A look through committee and AGM minutes for the second half of the 70s has reminded me of the number of significant issues the Committee of Management and owners were grappling with during that time, leading to legal challenges and contentious meetings. An ongoing issue at this time was the role of the Secretary, with some of the committee not being happy with Donald Spiers, the Masterton chartered accountant who had been the Secretary since incorporation and had also played a pivotal role in establishing the lessor/lessee relationship with New Zealand Forest Products for the plantation forest. This arose partly because of owner concerns about his personal property dealings at Mangakino, although undertaken with the agreement of the committee. There were also issues about his personal behaviour. The committee had commissioned a report on provision of secretarial services from a Mr Paul, of Price Waterhouse & Co. in Wellington, and I was surprised to see in the minutes that I am recorded as disassociating myself from the report because I considered it to be “quite inadequate”. This was the start of a five-year journey to improve the Incorporation’s administration. The outcome was that the position was advertised and, with the committee being split, with 4 in favour, 1 against and 3 abstentions, Mr Paul was offered the position but later had to decline. Mr Spiers carried on, with continuing opposition from some committee members and owners. The matter came to a head again when, as a result of objections made known to the Court, it appointed retired Judge Sheehan to conduct an investigation into the Incorporation’s affairs. The report, conducted at considerable cost to the owners and disruption to the business of the committee, found that nothing improper or illegal had been done but that disagreement among the committee on the secretarial role, sale of residential sections and other issues were obviously diverting energy from development of the Incorporation’s business. Following the AGM in 1976, the committee elected Iraia Te Whaiti to replace Rewi Tamihana as chairman. The committee was also unhappily divided on this issue. Later it was realised that newly elected member, Sam Te Whaiti, had voted for the new chairman, although not

yet confirmed in office by the Court. Rewi Tamihana was returned to office until a valid vote could be held. There was further delay in this because the Court decided it wanted a hearing at Masterton to consider the application for confirmation. This was held in June 1977 and at the next committee meeting, Iraia was elected as chairman and Rewi was invited to accept the role of Kaumàtua. These developments signalled a change in the balance of power between owner whànau, leading in 1978 to Ivor Te Whaiti being elected to the committee, defeating Rewi Tamihana. Meanwhile, the question of the secretaryship continued to be a disruption, although the committee was working hard to gain the owners approval for freeholding sections in the new Korari Crescent subdivision and exploring the amalgamation of the Pouàkani 2 development scheme land with the Incorporation. The freeholding of sections was seen as a necessary response to the Crown’s sale of freehold sections at Whakamaru, another example of the Crown’s failure to support the Mangakino township after devolving responsibility for its future, with a leasehold structure, to the owners.

Although great progress had been made with the plantation forests, it being reported in 1975 that 82.7% of the forest area had been planted (13269 acres or 5369 hectares), the balance, 2776 acres, was covered by powerline corridors and catchment reserves. The owners have suffered a significant loss in potential income because of the many powerlines running through the land. The Incorporation’s claim for compensation has still not been accepted by the Crown, which is right now seeking to eliminate the claim by legislation.

One particular memory I have of AGMs in the 1970s is that, when it came to holding the Committee of Management to account, there were two very competent women, the sisters Meri Mataira and Margaret Smiler, who asked hard questions and kept the discussion on point. Meri’s accounting skills were of particular use in focusing on the figures in the accounts which really mattered.

As we approached the end of the 1970s, the Committee of Management was still needing to raise its game to lead the owners through major decisions about land sales, incorporation of the farms and how the affairs of the Incorporation could be better managed. These continued to be hotly contested at future AGMs. I’ve more to come on that!

Marae Update Hurunui-o-Rangi Marae Hurunui-o-Rangi Marae trustees acknowledge Wairarapa Moana Trust for their generous 2021 marae development grant of $4,833 in recognition of the impact that Covid-19 has had on the earning capacity of the marae. As well as the Covid-19 restrictions, the marae has been unavailable for bookings while undertaking renovations over the last twelve months.
Te Rangimarie Marae Hi from Te Rangimarie. Life has been very quiet at Te Rangimarie Marae since Covid struck a while back. We closed our doors to overnight stays to align ourselves with Government policy and not many groups have been keen to meet through the day other than our church of Te Hepara Pai. However, I feel that is about to change. Life feels like it is revving up and people are starting to look to meet again, perhaps not in the same numbers as they did before this pandemic but let’s hope we’re on the winning side. Our ablution block sprung a roof leak and after many attempts to get it right our fellow worshipping plumber, Robin, fixed it just like that. Don’t know why we waited so long to call the right man.
During this time, marae trustees took on a separate project funded by Trust House Masterton for the replacement and upgrade of our water tanks and the addition of a new water filtration system. Due to the various impacts on the building trade and increased costs of materials the water upgrade was more than our original budget allowed. In a timely manner, the receipt of the WMT development grant has allowed us to meet the cost of this project.
In appreciation of the Trust’s initiative in providing this grant we extend our thanks for the continued support the Trust provides to Hurunui-o-Rangi Marae.
Mā whero mā pango ka oti ai te mahi – With co-operation the work will be complete.
Anzac Day came and, as usual, we honoured all our Màori heroes at the kohatu that has been part of Nukutaimemeha since Tunuiarangi had them placed together. A lovely service of remembrance was held by Rev. Emily and a wreath placed at the foot of the kohatu. On the back side of the stone is recorded all the countries that came into the First World War and the dates they came. It has great historical significance and with the board that we have entered the names of those who were part of this tragedy. It’s especially poignant at this time with Russia raging war on Ukraine. We have recently had a tangi at the Marae, a young man, so we grieve with his family and ask God to comfort them as they mourn. That’s about it for Te Rangimarie. We have a few bookings coming up for school groups, so life does feel like we are rising from the gloom. Ngà mihi Robin Irwin, Secretary Marking Anzac Day

Notification of a Deceased Shareholder Death is never easy to announce; and we will all find ourselves in this situation at some time in our lives. Now and then the office is unaware that a shareholder has passed away and correspondence and the Wairarapa Moana Mailer will continue to be sent to the deceased shareholder’s address. It would be greatly appreciated if whànau could let the office know of shareholders who have passed on. Give us a call so we can update the share register and support the whànau to succeed.

Seasonal Farm update
Tēnā koutou The 2022 milking season is now drawing to a close, with the herds starting to dry off in preparation for the winter. Most districts throughout New Zealand have faced a challenging season and the Central Plateau is no exception with a slow spring, a dry summer followed by an unusually difficult autumn due to unusually low rainfall. Despite the challenging conditions the cows are in good condition and strong silage inventories are at hand to help us start next season in a sound position. After three years at the helm our farm operations team (Trevor Hamilton, Nick Rowe, and Moana Puha) is moving-on, although Trevor will be remaining with us in a consultancy role as he looks forward to a well-earned semiretirement! We wish Nick and Moana well and thank them for their contribution to Wairarapa Moana. With Trevor’s retirement, Gareth Hughes has joined us as our new GM Farms. Gareth has an extensive farming management background after spending fourteen years at Pàmu and AgResearch, with strengths in dairy systems and people leadership. Gareth is joined by Diego Gomez as an Operations Manager. Diego has both a New Zealand dairy farming background and a teaching history in his homeland of Argentina. Wairarapa Moana welcomes our new operations team as we prepare for the year ahead. Although the industry has faced seasonal challenges and rising costs of production, our team did a fantastic job with a solid production performance and rising milk price, meaning we still maintained a strong performance for the season. Following on from the successful roll-out of the spring calving A2 milk programme on two herds this year, we are expanding into a 100% autumn A2 herd starting in March 2023. This allows us to improve returns through the provision of specialty A2 milk whilst allowing Miraka to continue A2 milk supply to priority customers all year round.

Our biodiversity interests also include protection of the oldest Totara tree in New Zealand (now 1870 years old) on our site. This includes the removal of an existing fence that is imposing on the tree’s root structure and the building of a viewing platform to keep visitors at a respectful distance from this taonga.

I whakapapa to Wairarapa Moana through my late grandfather, Tikitikiorangi Te Whaiti. I was brought up in Dunedin, however, Pirinoa will always be my home. Kohunui Marae would be where all of our whànau would gather as one. It is such an important place in our lives as it holds not only our cultural and ancestral history but also our whànau memories. When I was a young girl, I aspired to be a school teacher, social worker, or lawyer. When I think back as to why I thought about those careers, the one common factor was people – helping people. Fast track to 2017, I found myself enrolled in Law at the University of Otago. Throughout Covid and the overall struggles of part-time work and full-time study, I finally graduated four-and-ahalf years later! When I first began studying, I thought that it was so important to be an A-grade student and take part in extracurricular activities – in fact, I aspired to be like that. Throughout university, I took part in the Te Roopu Whai Pùtake and Ka Rikarika a Tàne mentoring programmes. These programmes were based around helping our teina students being able to grasp how university operated, and to be a support person overall, whether that be in relation to the university workload or in general life. As you could imagine I became really busy as I was working part time, being a mentor/tuakana, and trying to keep up with my own studies. I can tell you that my grades were definitely not A’s most of the time. Although
10
I had never typically been a high-achieving student, I found it difficult to grasp the fact that although I was working as hard as I could, my grades were not changing significantly. I think that throughout the years of studying I found it easier to be nicer to myself about my grades and not to compare myself to others. Looking back on my university journey I aspired to be an A-grade student but when I was reaching the end, I just aspired to be someone who could help other people and be able to say that I enjoyed my university years, and the field I was studying. It was a privilege to have the opportunity to learn from other academics at the university and be exposed to continuous opportunities within the Law School. I am so privileged to have been a Wairarapa Moana recipient in the past. This scholarship allowed me to relieve some financial pressure whilst in the midst of the hectic university life. The wànanga I attended in Mangakino broadened my knowledge in terms of tikanga, and my whànau relations and for that, I am grateful. We were able to delve into the history of agriculture and Wairarapa Moana. This was beneficial for my knowledge, but also helped me to understand why, where, and how this grant that I applied for came about. We were about to learn more about our people. In November 2021, I gained a job as a Court Registry Officer in the Family Team in Lower Hutt. Within this role, I was able to communicate and work with Judges, lawyers and families that were going through the court system. This has been a rewarding job, although the issues I was exposed to definitely pulled on my heart strings. However, in saying this, it has also reminded me
Can you help
how manaakitanga within a role can help someone’s experience so much. I aspire to do this every day. I am about to start a new role as an Assistant Registrar at the Waitangi Tribunal in Wellington. I have not started here yet, although I am so excited to be able to dive into Màori relations and be able to contribute and give back to the Màori society in any way I can. In this role I will be dealing with claims that are in breach of the Treaty of Waitangi, brought by Màori against the Crown. I cannot wait to start! I am going to be admitted to the bar in June 2022. I will then be added to the roll of barristers and solicitors! Although I do not know what type of law holds my heart yet, I know that my future plans are going to be to continue to help Màori in any little way I can. My goal is to work in a law firm and to gain more experience in different fields, so that in the future I can venture out on my own. The one thing I would say to other young students that are about to take off into student life is that… it is HARD. It’s hard trying to find your fit in friendship circles, trying to look after yourself, and trying to figure out what you want to do for your career. University is all about a juggling act. You’re juggling all of these new things around you, and you are learning every single day. Sometimes, it can be a really intimidating place, especially when you look around in the exam and think that someone else is “smarter” than you because of how much they may be writing, compared to you. When your parents tell you that you are doing great, listen to them, you are doing great! When you’re feeling overwhelmed, make a to-do list and take some time out, think about the things that you have achieved rather than all the things you haven’t. My advice to Wairarapa Moana recipients would be to learn from others as much as you can, work together as much as you can, and have fun doing it.
RIPEKA KAIWARAKIHI – Original Owner 125 The office is holding substantial unclaimed dividends for Ripeka and we are attempting to locate any descendants/rightful beneficiaries and would appreciate any information that may bring a successful result. There is very little we know about Ripeka: We don’t know whether Kaiwarakihi was Ripeka’s maiden name or her married name. We do know that Ripeka was alive in 1909 because she was noted in an interim report of Native Land Commission, on Native Lands in Masterton, Featherston, Wairarapa South, Pahiatua, Eketahuna and Castlepoint Counties, presented to both Houses of the General Assembly by Command of His Excellency the Governor General. It was detailed in the report that Ripeka, along with Aporo Hare and Pirihira Muriwai, purchased a block of land, 16 acres 2 roods, Puahi No 3, located in Wairarapa South County.
