Mākereti Papakura, believed to be the first Indigenous woman to study at the University of Oxford, has been awarded a posthumous degree certificate.
Papakura sadly passed away in 1930, just weeks before she was due to present her thesis. Her research was later published as The Old-Time Māori — the first ethnographic study written by a Māori author.
We hope this brings a smile!

The group has been responsible for causing damage to multiple fences and newly planted native trees. Their behaviour on the bikes is endangering the public, including families using the park, road users and workers in the park.
They are also terrifying livestock, including sheep that are currently lambing.
If you witness these activities or have information that can assist Police, please call 111 if it is happening now, or make a report via 105 if it is after the fact.
