In 1921 Clement Wragge wrote to Henry Hawkins;
"I who has travelled in all the six divisions of the world choose to settle in God's own Country and picked the shores of Little Shoat Bay- the sweetest nook in all Maoriland - for my home" I am grateful to those who attend my lectures. Some people think I am crazy, but I am as stable as Jupiter.

Birkenhead Village presents:

Did you know that Birkenhead Bourough 1888,( 2nd oldest on the Shore next to Devonport) was the Fruit Bowl of Auckland?

As part of Birkenhead Bourough Strawberry-land: Birkdale's horticultural past was key.

This walk starts and ends at the Birkdale Primary School gates

Corner Birkdale and Salisbury roads, Birkdale

Birkdale was once renowned for producing New Zealand's best strawberries.

Author and historian Matt Elliott guides the walk around this North Shore suburb.

Hear about the old strawberry and fruit days - from planting, picking and carting produce to market, to the 'root disease' problems of the 1930s. And how Birkdale's farming landscape declined when the Harbour Bridge opened.

Matt will also talk about the innovative grower James Levesque. Born in St Heliers in the Channel Islands, he moved to New Zealand in the late 1800s.

The walk takes approx 90 minutes and includes one steep hill!

Suitable for 10 years and older.

Weather permitting.

Birkenhead Village presents:

Many children endured the long trip from Britain as they immigrated to New Zealand. Travelling to New Zealand on a sailing ship would take 80 to 160 days!

From the 1890's to the 1930's, steam ships enabled significantly reduced voyage times. Travelling on a motor ship in the 1940’s to 1960’s reduced the journey to 30 to 40 days. From the 1960’s, immigrants arrived by plane.

The entertainment on board the ships was very limited compared to modern cruise ships. No tablets or ipads!

Our children’s events focus on activities children typically enjoyed during the long voyages.

CAPT COOKS FAMOUS POTATOE SCONE RECIPE

Captain Cook first introduced the potato to South Island Māori in 1769.

Māori adopted the potato, as it resembled kūmara (sweet potato) and could be grown in a similar fashion.

More importantly, potatoes tolerated cooler conditions than kūmara. They were reliable and high-yielding, and quickly became a key crop.

Spaces are limited to 10 people per session. Children must be 8-15 years of age. Tickets are paid for on the day at OTT. $5 materials cost

Māori and European encounters led to trading of food.

Europeans relied on Māori for fish and native vegetables. Captain James Cook introduced potatoes and the kunekune pig to the Māori in 1769.

From 1803 potatoes and pigs quickly became a new currency. Tribes often made gifts of valued items.

Hammonds Highbury heritage guided walk

William Francis Hammond played a significant role in the development of the Birkenhead area. In 1879 he and his family shifted from Ponsonby to Birkenhead.

Hammond surveyed the Birkenhead area, created subdivision plans and instigated the provision of roads.

He negotiated with the Board of Waste Lands for the provision of land for a park and cemetery. Further negotiations with the Harbour Board saw the construction of the Birkenhead Wharf.
