Parry Kauri Park, Warkworth, Auckland
Parry Kauri Park, Warkworth
On the way back to Auckland, we stopped by Warkworth museum, but we did not go inside as the museum was closed at 3 pm. We saw a big Kauri tree standing in the front the carpark and we decided to have a look. This giant is 800 year-old and goes by the name McKinney Kauri .
We took a half hour walk through the boardwalks. The trail was great as we were surrounded by native trees and birds singing. It was also very easy to walk in and after 15 minutes we reached the lookout platform.
The information is from the website
The Warkworth and District Museum is located in the beautiful Parry Kauri Park. Take an easy stroll along one of the well-made boardwalks, through the native bush, to the lookout and kauri tree grove.
Kauri can grow to over 50 m tall, with trunk girths up to 16 m, and live for over 2,000 years. New Zealand’s largest kauri, Tane Mahuta, is on the West Coast

There was a cleaning station to clean the shoes before entering the park.

The information below is from the website
Parry Kauri Park in Warkworth north of Auckland is currently free of the microscopic tree pathogen, which mainly travels in the dirt on people’s shoes.
Ray Jensen, who is President of Kauri Native Bushmen's Association, believes the 1.8km of boardwalk they installed in Parry Kauri Park, as well as new cleaning stations, have prevented the area from being infected.
Despite these measures, Mr Jensen says they're very concerned the disease could enter the park.
The buses come here to bring people who want to see a kauri tree, because the other reserves in the area are being closed off due to kauri dieback.

Possible ‘partially complete’ waka discovered
What is believed to be a partially finished waka has been uncovered during excavation work on the Ara Tūhono Pūhoi to Warkworth motorway project.
The discovery of the waka, which is about 10 metres long, was made on April 16 near the Ōkahu inlet on State Highway 1.
Crown/Māori Relations Minster, Kelvin Davis says the discovery represents an exciting insight into the rich cultural past of the area.
“This is a significant discovery that will grow our understanding of where and how waka were made,” says Davis, “It reinforces traditional korero around the use of resources including waka forests, where particular trees were identified and nurtured for waka construction”.
The discovery was made during piling work for a viaduct on the new motorway.
The Transport Agency’s Senior Manager Project Delivery Chris Hunt says, “A digger identified a wooden object under the surface of the inlet. The mud around the object was carefully removed exposing a large rectangular wooden object that extended across the excavation”.
It is believed the object may be a waka which is still connected to the trunk of a Kauri tree. In total, the waka and tree trunk are about 17 metres long.
On discovery of the taonga, the project’s environmental manager and onsite archaeologist were notified along with iwi partners Hōkai Nuku.
“It’s an amazing discovery and the Transport Agency has strict protocols for when unidentified artefacts are uncovered. We will treat the site with the utmost care and respect to ensure the correct cultural practice is carried out,” says Hunt.
The age of the waka, who it belonged to and the reason for it's unfinished state unfinished state is yet to be discovered.
According to Hunt, the immediate objective is to protect the waka and decide how to preserve it as the wood will deteriorate in contact with the atmosphere.
It’s expected the object will be lifted into a storage container and taken to a new site under the close supervision of Hōkai Nuku and Heritage New Zealand to be examined more closely and preserved

Spotlight: i-Kiribati and Tuvalu RSE workers in Warkworth
The New Zealand Government recently announced that the Recognised Seasonal Employer (RSE) cap would increase to allow more workers to fill a labour shortage in horticulture and viticulture industries where there were not enough New Zealand workers available.
We visited Warkworth, north of Auckland, where i-Kiribati, Tuvaluan workers and their families, have been welcomed into the community.
The RSE workers are employed by local company Southern Paprika, the largest single site glasshouse grower of capsicums in New Zealand.
