KAIWAKA SCHOOL AGRICULTURAL DAY
Kaiwaka School held our annual Agricultural Day on Mon-
day 21 October. It was a fabulous day and there were lots of
entries. All the students enjoyed seeing lambs and calves at
school. We thank our Kaiwaka Sports association especially,
for providing the PTA with funds to purchase 2 new gazebos,
which offered welcome relief from the sun for both people
and the lambs. The day was organized by Rebecca Blissett,
with help from Kate Packard, and we thank them most sin-
cerely for doing this for the school. ~ Rosemarie Ellis

OTAMATEA GROUP DAY
A large group of Kaiwaka children participated in the Ota-
matea Group Day agricultural day on Labour Day Monday,
with most children winning a ribbon with their lamb, calf or
goat. They were William Holden, Bella Holden, Lucy Gilligan,
Nathan Gilligan, Leayah Buxton, Hamish Ferguson, Brenda Fer-
guson, Gareth Ferguson, Tara Moyle, Katie Ferguson, Michael
Ferguson, Brayden Mills, Ashley Greig, Casey Greig, Leyton
Greig, Sammy Wakeling and Zac Wakeling. It was not possible to obtain individual section results at short notice. During the prize-
givings the following results were achieved: Lucy Gilligan champion overall wool lamb; Zac Wakeling preschool champion lamb;
Leayah Buxton junior champion lamb; Casey Greig calf reserve champion rearing; Gareth Ferguson calf junior reserve champion
leading, Ashley Greig calf junior champion leading; Sammy Wakeling calf overall champion beef type, and champion overall beef
leading. Congratulations to all participants on a creditable achievement competing against school children in the district from
Matakohe and Waipu south to Tomarata and Tauhoa, including those of college age
.
There were a good number of participants at
this event maybe because it was the first time it has been held on a long weekend, and that there were also several visitors who
just came for a look.

Memorial
RSA
(Inc)
from the ―Girls!‖ at
Hakaru.
We have had a busy time lately with
the 47th Birthday on 24th October, at
which most of Northland Women‘s
Sections were represented and to the
south Pukekohe sent members, Sil-
verdale, Warkworth, and Wellsford
plus most of our own members so a
very successful day was had by all.
Jan made the cake and Lena made a
great job of icing it, and Bettie
Marchant, ex President for many
years, did the honours of cutting it for
us. Reg Jaques kept everyone enter-
tained with his lovely music and Mar-
garet Schutt sang and Angel Erstich,
our New Zealand President, also sang.
The Mangawhai Singers also sang a
few group songs and solos, and were
much appreciated especially Maureen
Mennie -the group‘s ‗Nightingale‘.
The raffles and sales table was well
patronised - thank you everyone who
contributed to make the day a great
success. The only thing to mar the day
was the absence of our Patron Joan
Leslie. We missed you, Joan, and our
love and sympathy goes out to you,
Pam and Ron and all the relatives of
Dean Biddle whose funeral was held
on the 23rd October.
Our next mission was to organise and
cater for the Northern Centre WSRSA
bowls on Monday 4th November. The
winning teams were:- 1st Warkworth
skipped by Phyl Hollis, 2nd Waipu
skipped by Sharon Rudman, 3rd
Kaitaia with Liz Munu ―at the helm‖ -
congratulations girls, Fay Wintle did a
good job as skip for Hakaru. Man-
gawhai excelled itself weather-
wise and congratulations to all who
won raffles organised by Heather who
always does a great job, and to every-
one who helped on the day.
Tuesday 26th November is our Christ-
mas lunch at the Fishing Club by the
Pontoon if you haven't given your
names to Helen, members please do
so byo, fizz and a glass. We are sorry
our President Heather will not be
there to celebrate with us but Heather
and David are taking a ―Well earned‖
break and we wish them all the best
and a safe and happy holiday as they
head South.
That‘s all from the Hakaru Team for
now, we wish you all a Merry Christ-
mas and a Happy and Healthy 2014.
Yours” Aye”, Ann.

KAIWAKA SPORTS ASSOCIATION
A hair-raising horde of ghosts, goblins
and ghouls descended on the Kaiwaka
Sports Complex on Saturday night for
the Sports Association's annual Fright
Night. Over 200 people attended mak-
ing this our most successful Fright
Night ever!
New this year, we offered free face-
painting to the children. With thanks
to our professional make-up artists
Jacinta Driver and Missy Tilby, chil-
dren could choose whether they'd like
a gory gash, a scary scar or maybe
something a little more traditional.
Following a lolly scramble and games,
we opened up our 'haunted house'. We
had transformed our downstairs chang-
ing rooms into a spooky walk designed
to scare the yell out of you! It sounded
like the highlight for the children was
the blood-soaked maniac with the
chainsaw!
Congratulations to
the prize-winners:
Best costume:
Girl Lillie McCarthy (family pass Sheepworld) Photo above
Boy Ryan Stirling (2 superpasses Rainbows End)
Adult Natalie Richards(2 passes Spookers)
Best supper plate: Jess Leslie (family pass Motat)
The evening wound up with supper and people had put so much effort into their
Halloween-inspired plates – we had chocolate spiders, blood-
shot eyeball eggs, cobweb cupcakes, deadman finger sandwich-
es and more!
Many thanks to all the helpers and an especially big thank you
to Mark Ottaway who did such as fabulous job decorating the
haunted house. Steve Campbell's photos can be viewed on our
website
. Thank you to everyone who
came along – we hope you had a frightful time!

Armistice Day
The 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month
marks the moment when hostilities ceased on the
Western Front in 1918, following the signing of the
Armistice between the Allies and Germany was celebrated in
many
cities and towns around New Zealand. Enthusiasm was
dampened, though, by the ongoing impact of the influenza
pandemic ravaging our country. ~ nzhistory.net.nz

Glossary
Conjunction =
the instant when
two objects have
the same celestial
longitude, or right ascension.
Perigee = The point in any or-
bit nearest to the body being
orbited.
Elongation = the angle in the
sky between the Sun and an
object.
Apogee = The point in any or-
bit furthest from the body being
orbited
Highlights
The moon passes next to sever-
al planets and stars this month
and these conjunctions are
worth watching out for, in par-
ticular, the moon passes by the
brilliant planet Venus on 6 / 7
November and the bright star
Spica from 5am on 30
th
No-
vember.
This month is a good time to
pick out the bright stars of Peg-
asus (the winged horse) – mak-
ing an asterism known as the
―Square of Pegasus‖. To the east of Pegasus, the constellation of Aries is easy to
locate. Trailing off the northern (lower) edge of the Square is a line of stars form-
ing the constellation of Andromeda. On a dark night it is possible to spot the fa-
mous Andromeda galaxy (M31) with the naked eye although it is much easer with
binoculars. While one of the treasures of the Northern Hemisphere, M31 only rises
20 degrees above the northern horizon in Auckland.
High overhead are the bright southern stars, Achernar and Fomalhaut, which to-
gether with the constellation Grus are the most prominent feature of our spring
night sky.
Along the ecliptic plane, the relatively inconspicuous zodiac constellations of
Capricornus, Aquarius, Pisces and Aries can be picked out using some bright stars
like Fomalhaut and Achernar as guides. The-
se constellations span an area of sky away
from the plane of the Milky Way (Ara
Matua) which has few bright stars.
Rising in the east, Cetus (the Whale) almost
grazes the line of the ecliptic but is not a sign
of the zodiac. It represents a giant sea mon-
ster or whale of Greek myth.
In the south, two naked eye galaxies – the
large and the small Magellanic Clouds (LMC
(Kokirikiri and SMC) – are rising during the
early part of the night and lie roughly be-
tween Achernar and Canopus. This is a good
time of year to seek them out, aided with
binoculars.

DOG TRIAL
UPDATE
The Waikato Show at Claudelands was
our destination this time. Just a small
team, Ian McKinnon and I made an
early start on Friday 1st November to
beat the Auckland traffic. We were
pleased that we had taken our warm
jackets as the breeze in Hamilton was
quite cool.
The sheep had been worked, perhaps a
bit too much prior to the trials and
along with being somewhat hungry it
made them rather ‗bolshie‘ to handle.
Dash was first to go and well up to the
challenge for the first half of the course
before she took the law into her own
‗hands‘ and took a firm grip of one of
the ewe‘s noses. Action she got but the
sort of thing that is frowned on by
Judges, so I chose early retirement and
retreated to the ute.
Ian and Tess followed soon after. This
pairing has had success in the past,
Tess is very careful and somewhat
light and the ewes she drew were soon
to take advantage of her so they were
lucky to complete the course.
Two hours later it was Jack‘s turn and
he took great delight in showing his
dominance over the ewes we had
drawn and completed with 95 points
(out of 100), which put us in 2nd place
for the day. This meant we were in the
Run-Off being held on Saturday after-
noon with 9 pairings lining up for
it. Jack and I had drawn number one
run so the pressure was on with ewes
that were a real challenge giving us all
sorts of trouble. We made it to the
Maltese Cross to find that the wind had
blown the hurdles together leaving no
space for the sheep to go so the Judge
ordered that we had another run. By
this stage, although the next 3 ewes
were a lot more co-operative, Jack was
extremely keen to assert his dominance
quickly which was to our detriment,
showing in the final results where we
finished 4th with 96 points.
It was an enjoyable trip with the best
Chinese Technology of the 21st centu-
ry, in Ian‘s Great Wall which perhaps
lacks the comfort and power when
compared with their Japanese counter-
parts!!

FOOD BANK APPEAL
Kia ora, Greetings to All
Maria, Paula, Dalliese would like to take
this opportunity to thank all our Sponsors
who have helped to keep our Food Bank
going: John Bowmar, Kaiwaka Family
Church, Ratana Church, Shelford Whanau,
many more people who I don‘t know, and
the wider community.
It has been a busy year for the Food Bank.
We always seem to help those in need,
sometimes we are scraping the bottom of
the barrel, but through the generosity of the
community we are able to help families in
need.
Times are getting harder for families.
We are asking you for help. We are in
great need of food donations: meat, tinned
food, cereals, bread, milk
Food can be left at Jaques Four Square in
Kaiwaka.
If you have perishables please can they
wait until I do up the Food parcels on 23rd
December.
We also need Christmas gifts for children
aged 3-15 years old.
I know we can rely on our Community to
support those in need.
Thank you to the caring people who have
been the backbone of the Community Pro-
ject
God bless ~ Maria, Paula Dalliese

KAIWAKA
WEATHER
October was a normal month with
windy patches and not a lot of rain,
worse luck and definitely short of sun-
shine but some pleasant days. I have
not heard of anything too major
weather-wise in our region and no one
has reported me anything.
In October we had 19 mm of rain at
our house and October last year we
had 59mm. There were only 6 days
last month we recorded rain.
The wettest October since 1958 was
2006 with 176mm and the driest was
2000 with 17mm. The first 10months
of this year we had 1024mm and last
year we had 1205mm.
The wettest first 10months was 2008
with 1582mm and driest first
10months was 1991 with 691mm.
I see there has been a lot of harvesting
done and the maize and turnip crops
are going in.
Wishing you well and keep safe. Bev.
Kaiwaka War Memorial Hall Update
Movies
Kaiwaka War Memorial
Hall had a couple of brief
Open Days recently to
demonstrate the quality
of our new projection
equipment, the awesome
new surround-sound sys-
tem, and our lovely new
comfy chairs. Some peo-
ple also got to see what
the Hall can offer in
terms of facilities for conferences, weddings, dances, theatre, etc.
Despite the fact that it wasn‘t well advertised we had quite a few people come in
and enjoy what they saw, especially on the Sunday afternoon. Reactions were all
very positive, and with a good number of completed questionnaires from the
Bugle we have a very good idea now about what the community wants.
We thank the people who made an effort to come along and/or return the ques-
tionnaire.
We will start screening movies again... soon. Watch this space!
Courses and development
On the land behind the Hall (part of the Hall's property), the Kaiwaka Communi-
ty Garden is taking shape. This was the project favoured by NorthTec for the
Sustainable Rural Development Course. They started from nothing... and now
there is this lovely garden, created by the students on the course and their tutor
James, with help from the NorthTec carpentry course run by Tim, with top soil
donations and a little money from the Hall Committee for some of the materials.
This could be a great asset! It looks great, and I am hearing that there will be a
follow-up course starting in February.
Painting
The painting of the Hall exterior is nearly finished.

KAIWAKA LIBRARY
The next book swap is comi
ng up
soon - we will be swapping the Dar-
gaville books in the first week of De-
cember. Now is the time to get in and
take a good look at the current selec-
tion before it disappears, they don't
have to be back before the swap, so
you can have them for the usual 31
days.
Book Reviews
I have been gathering up old book re-
views, printing them and putting them
in a binder so they can be read in the
library. This is all the recent reviews
published on Facebook and Google+,
not just those that make it to the Bugle.
You'll find the folder on the table in
the library if you'd like to take a look.
Review
Recently I've read The Hunger Games
by Suzanne Collins. In the not-so-
distant future, after some sort
of rebellion, North America
is divided into twelve dis-
tricts, strictly ruled from the
Capitol which is located
somewhere near the Rocky
Mountains. District 12, the
district furthest from the
Capitol, is in the vicinity of
the Appalachian Mountains,
and most of its workers are
coal miners. Life is tough,
and tends to be short.
Katniss Everdeen lives with
her mother and younger sister, Prim.
Their father died in a mining accident
that left their mother withdrawn to the
point of neglecting her children, and
they come close to starving to death
before Katniss realises she must use
the skills her father taught her, and
sneak beyond the electrified fence con-
taining the town to poach game and
gather plants to keep them all alive.
Somehow, 16-year-old Katniss not
only survives, but flourishes in her
own way as she gains confidence sell-
ing excess meat to others in the black
market.
But there is a darkness overshadowing
everyone in the districts - the Hunger
Games. Every child aged between 12
and 18 must enter the draw for the
games each year, from which one boy
and one girl from each of the twelve
districts is chosen. These tributes to go
to the Capitol and fight each other until
only one is left alive, all for the enter-
tainment of everyone else. Or rather, for
the entertainment of those in the Capi-
tol, since none of their children have to
take part, while those in the districts are
forced to watch the televised competi-
tion and see their own be slaughtered.
To make matters worse, the children of
poor families can earn extra food to help
their families survive by entering their
names more times, making it more like-
ly that they will be selected
than children of more well-
off families - and those extra
entries are carried over and
added to each year.
The book starts on the reap-
ing day, the day the tributes
are selected. Katniss has
gone through this a few
times already, but it's her
sister's first time. She's terri-
fied for her sister, even
though she knows Prim's one
chance of being selected is
very small compared to her
own. Katniss has been taking extra en-
tries to help feed her family since she
turned 12, and now has 20 entries this
year. But chance is a funny thing...
Even though I've seen the movie made
of this book, I really enjoyed it. It was a
gripping read from start to finish. I'm
looking forward to the next two books
in this series! This book is on the Rental
Fiction shelves in the library.
See you in the library!

preciated!
Gymnastics
Stephanie and her team at our gymnas-
tics club are pleased that the long await-
ed Air Track Pro has finally arrived! Our

erous grant.

help out, please phone Lindell Ferguson

The Zonta Club of
Mangawhai are pleased to
announce the 2013 Spirit
of Adventure scholarship
goes to Charlene Kahotea-
Smith who will be taking
her voyage in 2014. We
wish her bon voyage and
look forward to hearing all
about it on her return.
Also coming to a town
near you in November
will be some very special
visitors - our orange
advocacy dolls.
The Mangawhai Zonta
club is part of the interna-
tional ‗Zonta Says No‘
project, which is taking place all over the world at the end of November. Its aim
is to bring attention to the horrific statistics of domestic violence, which, in New
Zealand, have reached an alarming level and to promote the message that domes-
tic violence is not OK. The Zonta promotion is linking nationally with the ‗White
Ribbon‘ and ‗It‘s Not OK‘ campaign.
The dolls had their first outing on Saturday 26
th
October where Zonta teamed up
with Judy Kennedy from Te Ha at Mangawhai Beach School Gala Day to pro-
mote the upcoming area initiative to raise awareness of domestic violence. See
the photo above. During November the dolls will be covering Kaiwaka, Maunga-
turoto, Waipu, Mangawhai and Ruakaka. So keep a look out for them. On Satur-
day 23
rd
November at the Bream Bay Community Centre in Ruakaka the dolls
will be supporting the White Ribbon bike riders as they leave for their ride onto
Whangarei. The bikers will be leaving at 10am, so come along and help us to
give them a good send off.
Before that on Saturday 9
th
and Sunday 10
th
Nov the Man-
gawhai Zonta group will again be providing delicious high
teas at Tara Lodge on both afternoons as part of the Man-
gawhai Garden Ramble. This year there will be craft stalls as
well so come along and support three worthy causes. The
Zonta group will also have an information stall if you wish
to find out more about Zonta.
