KAIWAKA MEETS COUNCIL

More than forty residents

from Kaiwaka and the

surrounding area met with

Kaipara

District

Council

commissioners and some

staff members at the Kaiwaka

Sports Assn. complex last

week.

KDC Commissioners John

Robertson and Richard Booth

both spoke on Council

operations.

Darlene

Lang,

KDC

Community Facilitator, led

the discussion by asking what

were the things people like about their district and town and

what were the greatest concerns. The points brought

forward were very similar to those made at the 2011

Council meeting held in the Sports Assn. complex for the

‘Kaiwaka Structure Plan Discussion Document May 2011’.

Roading was well discussed - from the need for skilled

grader drivers and more metal on rural roads to the need to

improve accessibility around the township. Rubbish would

have come in next - a regular ‘gate collection’ in a wider

area would do away with rat-infested or non-paying bags at

rubbish collection points and be just as cost effective.

Drainage, an attractive business centre, effective services

and an active community group were further improvements

that could be made.

Council want to know when you have a problem or see a

problem developing - send in a Service Request by phone

0800 727 059, email council@kaipara.co.nz or in person;

the nearest office is at The Hub, Molesworth Drive

Mangawhai.

Darlene (photo above) has put an action plan in place

following this meeting and sent this information to those

attendees who listed their email addresses. If you would

like to be put onto that email list and receive this

information

please

EUTOPIA CAFÉ

Café Eutopia is now Eutopia Café -

only a small change but it flows

well for the new owners Robert and

Marijke.

They are nearly six months into

their rebuild / renovations and are

finding there are not enough hours

in the day or days without rain! The

weather has slowed their progress

more than expected. Marijke had

planned to re-open the café by

October but now it seems it will be

nearer Christmas time - in their

words, ‘under new ownership and is

currently closed for a massive

refit, overhaul and completion project that is running way

over schedule’.

The cafe was started by Kiwi author and artist Peter

Harris and began operating in 2002. This novel icon has

attracted visitors from all over the world and is possibly

one of the most photographed parts of Kaiwaka.

The existing dome structures and courtyard are now being

modified and finished; a new covered area has been built

over the courtyard, and among a lot of other work many

wall faces are receiving new relief carvings in the plaster

You can follow the work at the café on Facebook or

Representative rugby

Saturday

hosted

two

representative rugby matches, first up

was a Roller Mills match (Under 13's),

this was Northland coming up against

Thames Valley. There was a mixed bag

of weather but the boys coped well

with

the

changing

conditions.

Northland had a great win over Thames

Valley 48 - 5.

Following the Roller Mills match, the

reps Under 16's took the field,

Northland South vs Auckland South.

This was a closely fought and injury-

ridden match with Northland going

down to Auckland 10 - 19.

Otamatea IMB player Ashton Coates (ball in

hand) playing for Northland South

Squash

Our Kaiwaka squash club played the

Maungaturoto Squash Club last week

for the prestigious purple potty!

A great night was had by both clubs,

with Kaiwaka taking out the challenge

8 wins to 3.

Touch

I am helping organise the Whanaunga

Touch Tournament to be held at the

KSA on 10

January. This is a

fundraiser for the Otamatea Marae and

descendants from the marae are given

first priority to enter. Keen to register a

team? Contact me and I will send you

the registration form.

Gymnastics

With thanks to a generous grant from

the KSA, some members from the

Otamatea Gymnastics club visited the

Cirque Du Soleil show Totem in

Auckland last week. The show was

amazing and the group of 19 gymnasts

and coaches had a very memorable

evening! Photo below.

Winter sports prizegivings

As more of our winter clubs wind up

their season, we continue to host

prizegivings:

this Fri, 5pm – Junior Netball

this Sat, 11am – Kaipara

fundraiser for the

of you who don't

know of Yulia,

she is a Russian-born New Zealander

now based in Australia who sings all

over the world and has won many

singing awards. We are going to

perform a show 'Yulia and Friends' and

so I am looking for local talent to be

part of the concert. If you know of any

local singers who would be keen to

perform at this concert, and maybe sing

a duet with Yulia, please contact me.

The concert will be in mid-Feb (date to

be confirmed).

KAIWAKA

FITNESS

Believe it or not Summer is on the way

and the way the gym has been some

mornings its like you all have realised

this and decided to do something about

getting that summer bod.

Just a few points to remember:

1.Doing hours of cardio isn't going to

work unless you change what you eat.

2. Cutting your food intake drastically

isn't going to work either.

3. New fad diets might work for a

while but not in the long term.

You need to do things slowly and

change things slowly, not too slowly,

so that your plan is for the long run not

short term. It's no good doing heaps of

cardio then going home and eating a

packet of chocolate biscuits because

you think, 'oh well I have worked out, I

can afford to have a little treat'; your

little treat might well be as many

calories as you have just burned off, so

then you start thinking 'well this isn’t

working, I am doing all this cardio and

not losing any weight'. This is where

little steps help, and always make a

plan.

Plan your food, your workout, how

much you can do, what you like doing.

No good saying 'I am going to run

everyday' if you hate running, it will

last a week and that will be that. Also

remember you need a minimum

number of calories to lose weight, if

you go below that your whole

metabolic system slows down and that

makes it twice as hard to lose any

weight. Be sensible, ask advice and

enjoy. ~ Jules

WHERE TO VOTE

The best place for a

polling booth in

Kaiwaka?

I wrote to the

Northland electorate

returning officer in

November

2011

about two issues:

1) the address for

Kaiwaka School (33 Mangawhai Road)

was not correct and could lead to

people not being able to find the place

on the day, and

2) the school is not the best place for

the local polling booth, given the hill-

climb involved, especially when the

town’s hall was more centrally placed

(ie more visible from the town centre)

and was fully accessible.

I had a reply from the Returning

Officer, saying thank you for pointing

out the mistake with the road name and

“adjustments have been made in our

system in this regard”, and that they

would “investigate the use of other

premises, though they are bound to use

schools wherever possible, however

exceptions can be made”.

This time around, nothing has changed.

The wrong address is still being

published, and nothing has been done

to improve accessibility for the lesser-

abled voters.

The address may not seem a big deal,

but how many times have you heard of

people going to Mangawhai Road

Kaiwaka-Mangawhai Road which runs

Type the given address into Google

Maps (and no doubt in-car navigators,

too) and you’ll be shown a spot near

the end of Lower Silver Hill Road in

Wellsford. Sometimes I think our road

needs a complete change of name to

something unique to stop this

confusion.

Do you think it is okay that people with

limited mobility are faced with either a

steep uphill climb to get to the local

booth at the school, or drive 15-20

minutes to a neighbouring town where

access is easier? Two elections ago, I

drove my elderly (90+ at the time)

neighbour to Mangawhai because she

could not manage the walk at Kaiwaka.

While it was nice to spend the time

with her, how did she feel about putting

me out like that, even though I was

happy to do it? It shouldn’t have been

necessary.

Who do you talk to about this? Send an

email to Northland@electorate.govt.nz

or write to the Electoral Commission,

Private Bag 99 9061,

Whangarei Mail Centre,

Whangarei

and

explain your thoughts and

how things could be

improved for the voters in

Kaiwaka.

KAIWAKA WEATHER

Our winter is leaving us with a remind-

er of what the weather has been like.

We survived it even though it has been

boggy and windy and all the other

things. I did like the few nice days we

had this month. Great to see the spring

flowers and new life all around us. I

saw where spring will be warmer than

usual and wetter as well this year. Oh

well I guess we will be having a late

garden as the ground is too wet and

will take time to dry out.

At our house this August we recorded

187mm rain and for 2013 we had

191mm. It rained on 13 days of the

month with a couple of extremely

heavy lots.

For the first 8 months of this year we

recorded 1132mm and 2013 we record-

ed 830mm. Our driest August we had

was 2011 with 54mm and the wettest

was 1989 with 318mm. The driest 8

months of the year since 1987 was

1994 with 612mm and the wettest 8

months since 1987 was 1987 with

1373mm.

The Brynderwyn waterfall is surely

falling now. All that beautiful water go-

ing to waste. We remember a gentle-

man who lived in Kaiwaka many years

ago and he was a home brewer and the

only water he used for making his

home brew was from the Brynderwyn

Waterfall. Clean as. You would have to

take your life in your hands nowadays

with the amount of traffic on the road

to try that.

Looking forward now to some warm

weather. Take care out there.

RODNEY COLLEGE

Puss n Boots Production

Our

major

senior

productions are always

fabulous and this year

was

exception.

Surrounding primary

schools are invited to

attend and we had a

good turn out from

Kaiwaka Primary and

Tauroroa Area School.

Mrs Clist interviewed

some of our junior

students after they had watched a matinee

session… they said ‘it was really cool’, ‘it

was choice’, ‘I liked the ogre; he was so

funny’. While each actor/actress played

their part the stage was vibrantly decorated

with glorious forest scenery, majestic royal

gardens and colourful lighting. Each

scene transitioned seamlessly and it was

finished before one noticed time passing.

Well done to Mrs Walters and her amazing

drama team!

New Digital Technology Courses

Next year Digital technology is branching

into three different areas to cater for

student

interest

and

future

job

opportunities.

The first course is Digital Media Studies

and will be available on NCEA levels 1, 2

and 3. Students will learn to make

websites, music videos and by level 3,

websites that require content management

as well as film reviews on YouTube.

Students with these skills could find jobs in

graphic design, branding, marketing and

advertising and video game design. It can

also be used for entering graphic design

and other tertiary courses.

The second course is Programming and

Computer Science and is aimed at students

who want to go into jobs as games

programmers, business analysts, database

managers, software engineers, IT support

and network managers and further study in

these directions at university.

The third course actually sits outside of

digital technology in the sense that it does

not use the computer to make technological

outcomes such as games or programs, but

the computer is used to manage tasks. This

2-year course is called Computeracy and

students will be able to attain the National

Certificate in Computing at Level 2. The

skills students will learn will be as varied

as applying for a job online, using e-mail

and social media effectively, recording

bookings, typing documents and using the

internet. With these skills students can

become receptionists, data entry clerks,

administration clerks jobs, as well as being

able to use computer effectively in

everyday life and further study.

Bronze for the 2014 shooting season

March this year saw the formation of the

Otamatea High School shooting team. The

team has been travelling to clay target

clubs around Northland, Including Kaeo,

Kaitaia,

Kaikohe,

Dargaville,

and

Whangarei. The team scored an impressive

1773 points for the season, which put them

in 3rd overall. The last shoot in Whangarei

was on Saturday and the team placed

3rd scoring 411 points, 2nd place was only

one point ahead of us on 412.

Year 13 student Jake Hamlin took out the

top spot on Saturday scoring 91 out of 95

placing him first overall and 3rd overall in

the single barrel event. Year 11 student

Lachlan Sidwell took out the single barrel

section which was decided in a shootout.

A huge thank you to Treena McCaroll for

all her work and support, Phil Cotching

and Bryce Lupton for their assistance and

Richard Westlake for the use of his farm

and shooting facilities.

School Entrance

As all families of Kaiwaka Primary

students would have no doubt noticed

the entrance of the school looks much

different with the removal of the boiler

house and the dental clinic. Both are

now surplus to requirements due to

room specific heating and the mobile

dental caravan. Plans are underway for

a permanent path parallel to the staff

car park, in the meantime thank you for

using the temporary zone that Craig has

provided.

Prior to the school reports being

released early this term, the school held

a parent information evening with the

aim of demystifying some of the jargon

used within education (including in our

school reports) and the ways in which

different

topics/ages

are

tested.

Feedback from those who attended was

positive, thank you to those who

attended and presented – this is

something we would like to hold again

at a future date.

“Disaster Plaster” campaign

The PTA has been busy fundraising as

usual – with the latest being the

“Disaster Plaster” campaign; this raised

a large sum of money, thanks to those

families who sold the plasters and to

Rachel Stirling and the PTA for

bringing this to our school. Also a

special thanks to George Te Hira who

has donated 3 calves for the school to

sell – it is much appreciated.

The Whanau Group Committee

needs more attendees. If anybody is

interested please contact the school.

The purpose of the whanau committee

is to support those students that

participate in Nga Tumanako and Kapa

Haka – which is 90% of our students!

The school is open to suggestions

regarding meeting times etc. that may

improve attendance. The Whanau

Committee is warm and welcoming to

all people, it is not necessary to be

Maori to attend. The Kaipara Festival

will be held at Mahurangi College

(Warkworth) this year on the 1st of

November, the Annual School Noho

Marae trip to Otamatea Marae will also

take place in the 4th term.

Congratulations to all students that

participated in our recent school cross

country and those that went on to

represent us at a lower Northland level.

We have school speeches and “Ag

Day” coming up soon so keep an eye

out on the newsletter for more

information.

Recently BOT members attended

training at Otamatea High School that

focused on effective governance and

student achievement as the BOTs main

focus. This workshop was interesting

and helped to develop trustee’s skills

and

understanding

the

responsibilities for student progress and

achievement and how we can use this

information

improve

our

governance. Governance encompasses

goals and priorities that are used to

describe what is to be achieved and

developed for the school.

The election is looming on the 20th of

September, as per usual Kaiwaka

School is used a voting premises, this

year we have decided to have a Cake &

Bake Stall as a fundr aiser , any

families that would like to donate

baked goodies (jams, preserves etc. are

also welcome) would be much

appreciated and can be dropped off at

school on Friday the 19th. If anybody

would like to help with the sales on the

day (approximately 10am-12pm) please

contact the school.

Thank you for the whanau who

completed and returned the recent

survey put out by the BOT, as you are

aware there was a summary of themes

reported by Melissa Watts in the first

week of September school newsletter –

the information obtained from this will

be used to contribute to forward

planning for our school. We will soon

be getting two notice boards for school

use, one at the entrance of the school

(just before Room 1) and another

community notice board down by the

hall – thanks to Ad Clarijs for

organising this for us.

Breton Celtic (a mixture of Scottish,

Acadian, Irish and French Canadian

music) as well as 18th century baroque.

They have received rave reviews both

overseas and here in New Zealand, and

have

been

described

'the

consummate

entertainment

package' (Bay Chronicle, 9/10). The

concert will be a rare opportunity to

hear something different as well as

beautiful.

Boxwood will be performing at the

Absurdistan community,

317A Parekura Road, Kaiwaka

Tickets are available from the Kaiwaka

Cheese Shop at $15, or $20 at the door.
