Pukehinahina Summer Lecture Series 2023 - The Battles of Gate Pā – Pukehinahina and Te Ranga

John from Mount Maunganui

Each year we offer free lectures to help the community understand our city's history and how it shapes our present. This year we are offering three lectures.
The third lecture will be on The Battles of Gate Pā – Pukehinahina and Te Ranga with Dr Cliff Simons. Cliff is a well-known historian, speaker and author who specialises in New Zealand's colonial and military history. He will be exploring the Battles of Gate Pā – Pukehinahina and Te Ranga so that we can understand their ongoing legacy today.
There will be an opportunity for questions and discussion at the end of each lecture.
A koha – donations will be collected at the door to help cover the costs.

St. George's Anglican Church, Gate Pā, sits on the site of the Battle of Pukehinahina - Gate Pā; one of the most significant events in the history of our city. We operate with the kaupapa of - let everyone who enters here be reconciled.

All lectures are at St. Georges Anglican Church,1Church Street, on the corner of Cameron Rd and Church St, Gate Pā, on the hill next to the Mega Mitre 10.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz
