THE BUGLE’S GOOD SORT: ELIZABETH PRESTON
Kaiwaka School swimming sports on
Wednesday 26th February at the school
pool. Thanks to the Larissa Bonham,
the teacher in charge of Sports, for or-
ganising this day.
Two or three times a week Elizabeth Preston
spends hours working at the Kaiwaka Rest Area.
This NZTA rest area is next to the Gateway North
Motel and is a very well used stopping place.
Elizabeth, who will be 80 years old next year, is
passionate about keeping the area clean and tidy
for those who stop here. She meets a lot of the folk
who stop and as she says “there are so many lovely
people. Today a number have stopped for a lunch
stop, including a young family who laid out a pic-
nic on their blanket”. They do appreciate the work
she does. She is a very keen gardener who likes to keep fit so enjoys being
able to give to the community.
Just this week she has picked up a large bag of litter - everything you can think
of, as a messy place attracts more mess. She also picks up the broken branch-
es and sticks as it makes it easier for the mower man to make a good job. The
young poplars that are sprouting up and the dead branches these hide are frus-
trating her, as are messes left under the big trees.
To add to keeping things tidy Elizabeth takes her trusty weedeater to the park
(yes, it is beginning to look park-like with her attention) once a month or may-
be two months depending on the growth and works away – always with a
smile.
We of the Bugle Team are so impressed with Elizabeth’s efforts we nominate
her as our first “Good Sort”!

KAIWAKA MOVIES
at Kaiwaka War Memorial Hall
We have had a great start to the new
Kaiwaka Cinema. We have screened
great movies, and a dedicated group of
volunteers meet every month to put the
programme together. The group of vol-
unteers also take care of setting up the
sound system, setting up the chairs,
getting the coffee, tea, drinks and
snacks ready and clean everything up
afterwards, and all the computer stuff
and posters. Without volunteers we
would not have a cinema - thank you
all.
So far we have had a total of 115 peo-
ple visiting and we are pretty pleased
about that. We have screened thrillers,
kids, family, comedy, animated - and
the comments were are all like: "great"
and "excellent", "awesome sound",
"nice to have intervals back", "sound is
much better than the 'old' movies".
There was also applause at the end of
the movie Argo just last week. Those
comments are encouraging, thank you.
Friday night is now "movie night" in
Kaiwaka. Every 1st and 3rd Friday we
will screen a movie and one Sunday
afternoon matinee for the family, usu-
ally the Sunday after the first Friday.
Keeping in Touch
We have a dedicated Facebook group
called 'Kaiwaka Community Cinema' -
see you there! If you would like to be
on a mailing list send an email to cla-
rijsam@xtra.co.nz Also on the Kai-
waka web site - www.kaiwaka.co.nz
click on movies.
Special theme nights are a possibility -
we will rely on input from the public
for these, so get in touch if you have
ideas.

KNITTING FOR WHANGAREI HOSPITAL
We are a Group of Knitters and Crocheters and meet
at the Apple Basket on the 2nd Tuesday of the month
at 10.00am.The idea is to make garments, beanies,
scarves, jumpers, knee rugs and shawls to donate to
Whangarei Hospital so they can be given to patients
when they leave. Many of the patients go home to
cold homes with very little warm clothing or anything
to keep them warm.
So if we can make a difference the garments we make
will be given to Children and Babies as well to the
Elderly.
We will also be making Prem Baby Clothes for the
Neo Natal Department for those who like to make
very little things. We will share patterns and ideas
over a cuppa, and discuss what the needs are each
month.
If you are interested, come along and see how it
works.

Does anyone know Lee Kingi? I'm looking
for her overdue book "Potiki" by Patricia
Grace, and a disk from an audio book
"Blue Smoke". If you can return these for
her, it would be greatly appreciated.
Book Review
Recently I've read The Race by
Clive Cussler and Justin Scott.
It's 1910, only a handful of years
since the Wright Brothers made
their historic first flight in a pow-
ered aircraft. In a bid to promote
and extend flight to the people of
the United States of America,
newspaper tycoon Preston White-
way puts up $50,000 for the first
airplane to cross the country in
under 50 days. He's even sponsoring a
plane himself - the daring and beautiful
aviatrix Josephine Frost. There's only one
snag in that idea - Josephine witnessed her
husband shooting her lover - and builder of
her aircraft - and her very-rich-but-still-a-
thug husband has vowed to kill her. No-one
has managed to catch him yet, and the Van
Dorn Detective Agency has been trying
since he first started bashing his way into
the newspaper business some years ago.
Isaac Bell is brought in to protect Jose-
phine and catch Frost, and brings in Van
Dorn men from all over the country to help
- and ends up flying the entire race course
himself as her escort. Not that he has ever
flown before, but since when has that ever
stopped anyone?! He drives an auto-
mobile and can drive a steam loco-
motive - how hard can it be? This is
a rollicking good yarn, exactly what
I expected from these authors as I've
read a few books in this series be-
fore. This is the fourth one written,
but it's not necessary to read them in
order, I've found. This book is on the
Dargaville shelves in the library until
early June.

KAIWAKA SCHOOL
By now Term 1 2014 is well underway
– we started the New Year with 12 new
enrollments which was fantastic. Now
the children and staff (teachers, the
principal and our various support staff)
are settled into their classes and rou-
tines. This term we have a swimming
program running everyday and a Keep-
ing Ourselves Safe (KOS) program
commencing on the 24
th
of February –
run by our Police Education Officer Ian
Anderson.
The PTA and Whanau groups have
commenced their regular meetings; all
parents are welcome to attend.
The BOT would like to briefly mention
Kaiwaka Schools Teaching Philosophy
which you may have heard being talked
about in the acronym form of SHARE
hand. This is the kaupapa where we all
SHARE the responsibility to be Safe,
Helpful, do all things with Aroha, Re-
spect and Encouragement. At Kaiwaka
School we expect this from our staff
and our children and we would like to
invite the wider school community to
embrace this concept. This is particu-
larly relevant to our school grounds
after hours and our school pool. As
most of you are probably aware we
give the people of our community the
opportunity to purchase school pool
keys for the swimming season for a fee
and an agreement (by reading and sign-
ing) to follow the pool rules. Unfortu-
nately there have been several incidenc-
es over this current swimming season
of these rules being broken, without
further elaboration we would appreciate
it if all the people who use our school
pool do so in a SAFE manner and treat

ien also had a bush walk which some
were able to do while others lingered
enjoying the beautiful garden especial-
ly the many varieties of bromeliads, the
third garden was the Podgora gardens
at Shoemaker Road where we had af-
ternoon tea amongst the roses.

While the cattle tick is still a problem
in the area, it does not cause the con-
cern that was sweeping the North from
1910 until the mid 1940s. The cattle
tick as we call it, not only infests cattle
but also sheep, dogs, horses and even
cats, and is very hard on baby deer that
are now in the district. The tick in large
numbers on a beast not only causes
stress and even death, but also does
much damage to pelts and skins. While
there are seven types of native tick,
they are mostly found as small lice type
creatures on our native birds, and so
there is some conjecture as to how the
cattle tick arrived in NZ I was always
told that they arrived in the saddle
blankets and saddles brought back by
the NZ Rough Riders who fought in the
Boer War.
A letter in the Northern Advocate writ-
ten in 1921 by a farmer said he first
noticed ticks about 1910 after he had
sown some imported paspalum seed he
had got from Australia. He also said
the starlings were doing a great job
eating them and should be protected.
The worst affected area in the North
was the Bay of Islands and there was
agitation from the farmers for govern-
ment help from 1916 on. Dipping in
NZ was not new as it had been carried
out mainly to combat lice, keds and
scabby mouth. The main ingredient of
the early dips was tobacco and was
used at the rate of 6kg to a drum of wa-
ter, and so large farms were using tons
of tobacco every year. It was found that
this dip did not work on cattle tick.
There are letters in most daily papers
voicing concern from 1916 and one
person wrote in 1917 that dogs in the
Parua Bay were being badly affected.
Matakana and Puhoi had ticks in 1917,
which resulted in a farmers’ meeting
being called at Warkworth in January
1918. At the meeting the farmers were
told that the Govt would grant £150
towards the costs of building dips and
that North Auckland would be a pre-
scribed area with inspectors to be ap-
pointed. By 1920 there were 47 dips in
North Auckland (Helensville north), 20
in the Bay of Islands. Helensville got
its public dip in 1921.
I do not know when the public dips
were built on Settlement Road, but I
can remember one of them during the
1940s as I trudged past it on my way to
Hakaru School. It was almost opposite
the Valley Road turnoff on the Hakaru
side of Dip Bridge, hence the bridge’s
name still used by us oldies. The other
I can only dimly remember, but cousin
Doug knew it well as he walked past
on his way to Kaiwaka School and it
was situated near the creek past, but on
the same side as, Wattle Lane as one
comes along Settlement Road. Dips
were always situated near creeks as
they needed a lot of water.
Halfway along Settlement Road my
grandfather had a private sheep dip and
I can remember watching this being
used a couple of times. As sheep dips
and kids didn’t go well together (many
kids were drowned in sheep dips), it
may have been used more often than I
saw. To a youngster seeing the sheep
pushed under, with the occasional one
staying under was a great talking point
at school. The dip that was used had an
arsenic base, so the two houses that are
built near the Settlement Road Public
Dips should never have a tick problem.
I cannot remember the public dips in
use and one reason they ceased in the
1940s was a lack of manpower due to
the war , but they are a part of our his-
tory and no doubt there are others who
will know of other sites so they can be
recorded, even if it is to prevent houses
being built on top of them. I certainly
wouldn’t want my lettuces growing in
arsenic-saturated dirt.
As a footnote, one gentleman wrote in
the NZ Herald in 1920 stating that he
had found a sick seagull with six ticks
on it and did the government intend to
dip all the seagulls also?

Lower North Swimming Gala
On Thursday 20th February the school
sent their swimming team off to Rod-
ney College for the annual swim
sports. The weather was kind to us,
after some wet days, and the gala went
ahead without delays.
The team were a credit to Otamatea in
their behaviour effort and attitude. For
many of these swimmers this is the
only time that they will race in a gala
of this size against swimmers who are
training regularly four to six times a
week. The performances of these
swimmers were outstanding and 16
Lower North records were broken.
Dylan Sims an elite member of this
group broke two of those records in the
backstroke. He beat Bradley Kemp's
100m record set in 2010 and the 50
metre record also set in 2010 by Rod-
ney student Chris Turnbull. He also
won the 100 metres medley to give him
three victories on the day.
The schools other two victories also
came in the back stroke. The sub-junior
girls of Alice Paton (50m) and Hayley
Linton (25m) winning their races
in fine style.
Well done to all students for their time
and effort on this day and also to Brid-
get Paton for her help on the day.

This voluntary organisation has been
running the Health Shuttle service out
of Mangawhai for 4 years transporting
people, young and old, to and from
medical
facilities

Mangawhai,
Whangarei, Warkworth and Wellsford.
In 2013 we transported 264 people,
mainly to Whangarei, resulting in our
Mangawhai vehicle having clocked up
some 370,000 km. We are currently
seeking funds to enable us to find a
suitable replacement vehicle.
We receive funding support from the
likes of: ASB Trust Anglican Op Shop,
Coast to Coast Health, Catholic Car-
ing, COGS, Lotteries Commission,

assist with the day-to-day running of
the Shuttle Service operation which
includes Maungaturoto, Kaiwaka and

However sourcing money to replace
our ageing fleet of vehicles is difficult.

would be able to assist financially or
individually, we would be pleased to
hear from you.

The next Hawks match is this Saturday
at the KSA against old arch enemies
Wellsford. Our Reserves will take the
field at 12pm and our Premiers will
kick off at 2.15pm. These should be a
couple of hard fought matches, so
come along to show your support for
the Hawks!
The next Otamatea Rugby Club meet-
ing will be on Tuesday 18

And congratulations to Hawks players
Daniel Hawkins and Matt Moulds who
have made the Blues Development
