KAIWAKA SCHOOL AGRICULTURAL DAY
On Monday 20 October the children who have pet calves and lambs brought
them to school for the annual Agricultural Day. Both animals and children were
very excited, and it was obvious that a lot of work and care had gone into
preparing for the day. It was great to see such clever, healthy and well cared for
lambs and calves. What a great learning experience. We thank the ASB for their
support and Jody
Greig for leading the organisation for the day. Results on page 13.

Chef
Friday 31 October 7:30pm (M)
“Carl Casper is an acclaimed chef with a
family life that seems as decaying as his
artistic freedom. Those frustrations boil
over into a raucous viral-videoed public
confrontation against a restaurant critic
who panned his cooking of food that his
boss ordered him to make against his
instincts. Now with his career ruined,
Carl's ex-wife offers an unorthodox
solution in Miami: refit an old food truck
to offer quality cooking on his own
terms” (imdb.com)

Lunar occultations are fascinating to
watch. Because the Moon has no
atmosphere, the star shines steadily
until the instant that it is covered, when
it snaps out like a candle flame in the
wind.
Mercury is the inner most planet. It
is similar in size to the Moon and it is
also similar to the Moon in appearance.
The Mariner 10 mission, launched in
November 1973, made several flybys,
revealing a surface covered in craters,
mountains, ridges and valleys. There
were fewer of the dark plains that
dominate the lunar surface, however,
the largest of those on Mercury being
named the Caloris Basin.
Uranus is another of the gas giants,
consisting primarily of hydrogen and
helium. The planet looks a blue green
world to the human eye.
Terms:
Occultation - The obstruction of the
light from a distant astronomical
object by the motion across the sky of
a nearby relatively large object. Thus
asteroids can occult stars and the
Moon can occult stars and planets.
Elongation - The angle in the sky
between the Sun and an object. It is
measured in degrees, east or west
from the Sun. When the angle is zero,
we have an inferior conjunction and
when it is 180 degrees we call it a
superior conjunction.
Perigee - the closest point to the earth
and it is in this stage that the moon
appears larger.
Full Moon - The Moon is fully
illuminated and has completed one
half of its cycle, it is now opposite
the Sun, 14 days after New Moon.
James was born on 13
th
July 1893 in
Kaiwaka, to James Donald and Isabella
McKay. The family were Presbyterian;
he had a sister Edith Margaret b.1889
and brother Reginald Hector b. 1888
who died at 5 years.
James was single, working as a
bushman in Dargaville, when he
enlisted on 11 June 1915 aged just 21.
His mother Mrs J McKay, Gumtown,
Mercury Bay, NZ, was listed as his
next of kin. James, 12/3100, was a
Private when he embarked with the 7
th
Reinforcements, Auckland Infantry
Battalion, leaving Wellington on 9
th
October 1915 heading for Suez, Egypt.
James was admitted to Aotea
Convalescent Home, Heliopolis with
infectious enteritis on 8 January 1916 .
Sadly he was killed in action at the
Somme, France on 27
th
September
1916 aged 23 years.
James is remembered at Caterpillar
Valley Cemetery, Longueal, Somme,
France.
Below: A scene of humour as convalescent
soldiers attempt to start out on a donkey ride
from the grounds of the Aotea home in
Heliopolis. This picture was published in
"The Great War" magazine in 1916 shows a
period where the more fortunate wounded
soldiers are well along the recovery road
after sustaining life threatening diseases and
injuries on the Gallipoli Peninsular during
the eight month long campaign of 1915.

Principal’s Comment
We have recently received the
confirmed reports from both the
Education Review Office (ERO) and
New Zealand Qualifications Authority
(NZQA) following their visits in Term
3. The conclusion of the ERO report
stated: “Otamatea High School is well
led, managed and governed. Leaders
and teachers review the quality of
teaching and pastoral care so that
students learn and achieve in a
supportive and affirming environment.
Student achievement, including that of
Māori students, continues to improve.”
The summary for the Managing
National Assessment (MNA) visit
included the following statement:
“Otamatea High School is commended
for continuing to seek ways to meet the
assessment needs of its students.
Courses are reviewed and new ways
are being sought to gather evidence of,
and
to
recognise
achievement.
Teachers are collaborative and seek
professional engagement to develop
their understanding of assessment
practice.”
We have been granted the three year
cycle for both review processes which
is an endorsement of our ability to
continue to build sustainable practices.
These reports are a positive reflection
of the hard work and dedication of the
senior leaders, school staff and BOT
over the last few years. Full reports can
be found on the ERO website and the
NZQA website under MNA Reports.
There have been some questions from
the community about whether we will
be operating streaming in 2015 for
Year 10 students. We are aiming to
operate 4 classes at Year 10 next year
with all Year 10 students being able to
gain some NCEA credits. We will
continue to stream Year 10 classes next
year but we are currently reviewing
whether we stream based on students’
aggregate results (as is current
practice), or whether we are able to
stream subject by subject. We are also
considering offering two academic
Year 10 classes next year. A student
who is gifted at Maths may struggle in
English and vice versa; our approach
aims to build more flexibility into the
system. Student engagement results
from the NZCER survey over recent
years have indicated a dip in
engagement at Year 10 level. Our
intention with this change is to respond
to this data in a productive way whilst
keeping our vision of ‘meeting the
learning needs of every student’
central.
Senior Prizegiving will soon be upon
us and we are currently in the process
of interviewing candidates for Head
Girl and Head Boy positions. We
received a number of quality
applications from students wanting to
serve the school as prefects next year.
Prefect positions will be announced
and badges awarded at Senior
Prizegiving. After Senior Prizegiving
parents will be able to collect school
reports. Any reports which aren’t
collected will be mailed out.
Following Senior Prizegiving all senior
students will be on study leave. NCEA
Exams begin on Monday 10th
November. Full school uniform is
expected for all exams. If students
want to come on the school bus for
their exams they may do so. Please
note that afternoon exams start at
2:00pm so it may be necessary for
alternative travel arrangements for the
journey home to be organised in
advance,
particularly
if
students are sitting
more than one
paper.
An
allocated
study
room
will
be
available at school
for the time after
morning
exams
and
before
afternoon exams.
Any arrangements
to
meet
with
specific teachers
for
revision
purposes must be
organised
in
advance as teachers also have other
responsibilities and classes during this
time. No students should be using
school buses for any other purposes.
The Accelerated Literacy Learning
Programme
On Thursday 25th September those
involved in the Accelerated Literacy
Learning programme held a morning
tea in the school library. It was a good
opportunity for students, parents and
staff to share the recent learning
successes of these individual students.
The ALL programme is a Ministry of
Education initiative to support students
in the development of their literacy
skills. Otamatea High School chose to
focus on the writing skills of Year 8
students. The assessment results of
students throughout New Zealand who
are involved in the ALL programme
will be used by NZCER (New
Zealand Council for Educational
Research) to complete a report
about the effectiveness of the
programme.
Students have worked on a scrapbook
of tasks and enjoyed sharing their
personal writing with their parents.
Thank you to the parents who were
able to support their child at the
morning tea.
Junior Kapahaka Waiouru Trip
On Monday 22nd September, the
juniors in the kapahaka group along
with the Nga Ringaomatariki went on a
trip to extend learning about the impact
of war on Māori that has been our
focus for 2014 in recognition of 100
years since WWI started. Our first stop
was Tokoroa High School where we
made lasting impressions on our Cook
Island hosts. We were lucky enough to
learn about hydro-electricity onboard
the Huka Jet in Taupo before we
continued our journey to the Waiouru
Army Camp where we stayed for 3
nights learning about the rigors of army
life, the immense pride of Ngati
Tūmatauenga and the huge sacrifice
our service men make for all of us
“civvies.” We went tobogganing down
Ruapehu,
snowball
hurling
and
snowmen making. Then on our final
day we heard a legend about Ruapehu
and the other maunga in the Central
Plateau. It was an exhilarating week of
fun filled activities that helped impress
upon us the value of the NZ forces. Ka
mate he toa, ka ara mai he toa. When
one warrior falls, another rises in his
place.

Water
based
exercise classes
for arthritis sufferers come to
Te Hana
Local physiotherapist, Amy Griffiths,
is about to start taking water based
exercise classes for Arthritis New
Zealand. The classes are open to
anyone with an arthritic condition such
as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis or
fibromyalgia.
Scientific studies have shown that exercise
in water can improve strength and general
fitness in people with arthritis. The warmth
and buoyancy of the water makes
exercising easier. Plus, exercising in a
small group with people who have a
similar condition offers peer support. The
class will be suited to those with arthritis
and the small group will mean that Amy
can tailor the exercises to suit each
individual.
Amy says this is a great opportunity for
those with arthritis to access a local
programme specifically for them. There
has been a class in Whangarei for some
time but that can be too far for someone
with arthritic aches and pains to travel
comfortably so having something local is
brilliant.
The classes will be held at Karen
Woolley’s pool in Te Hana. The pool is
lovely and warm and has good access with
steps and a rail into the water. There is
even a hoist for those unable to use the
steps.
Classes will run every Wednesday during
term time at 11am – 12 midday. To register
please call Sue at Arthritis New Zealand on
0800 663 463. Or if you require specific
information about the class call Amy on
021 207 2729. Please also refer to the
advert in this edition of The Bugle.
Chess Tournament
Last month the inaugural Otamatea
High School chess tournament was run
at school. This is an individual tourna-
ment that was completed over 4
lunchtimes. Ten students participated
over the course of the week, playing
four games each. After four rounds,
Elias Giles and Alex Damsted were
tied on 3 wins and a draw each, so it
came down to a deciding match to de-
termine the 2014 champion. Each
player was given 15 minutes on the
chess timers, which was all the time
they were allowed to complete their
moves. In a frantic finish, Elias found
himself with a material advantage but
in serious time trouble.
Despite some frenetic moves at the end
Elias couldn’t beat the clock and so
Alex was declared the winner and
2014 champion.
~Dirk Smyth
Shearing Course
Ten young men arrived at Lupton’s
woolshed at 8am on Tuesday morning
– two wearing shorts and the rest in
suitable shearing clothes. That was the
last day anyone wore shorts. Shearing
is not kind to bare legs. The four tutors
from TECTRA started the boys on pa-
perwork and graduated to crutching
and later being able to shear three
sheep in thirty minutes. Five days from
8am to 5pm working in a woolshed is
more work than most had done before,
but they all completed the course and
were busy shearing when I saw them
last on Saturday.
An excellent course with well behaved
hard working students who hopefully
will find the skills they learnt useful in
the future.

KAIWAKA SCHOOL
Speech Competition
Our winners are: Year 1: Casey Greig;
Year 2: Sienna Burkell; Year 3: Ryan
Stirling; Year 4: William Holden; Year
5: Maia Fairburn; Year 6: Matthew
Everson.
The
award
for
overall
best
speechmaker went jointly to Ryan
Stirling
and
Matthew
Everson.
Congratulations boys. We thank our
judges Barbara Bronlund and Caroline
Andrews.
Hi-viz Vests
The Grassroots Foundation, Fonterra,
have donated a whole school set of
high-viz vests for all of our students.
These are for the children to wear to
and from school, and any other time
they are out and need to be seen. Each
one is named. Thank you, Fonterra for
providing these, and to Adrian Buxton
for organising this.
Food Scraps
We are going to put
aside food scraps for
pigs. The children
have been asked to
put
their
fruit,
vegetables and bread
scraps into a yellow
bucket, which will
be collected each
day.
No
meat
products can go into
the bin. The children
have been told that uneaten food must
still go home.
Swimming Pool Operators Course
Any volunteers to attend a small pool
operators course on November the 20th
from 8:30am to 4:00pm? The school
will pay the $350 if the person being
trained is happy to be rostered on as a
doser for the school pool over the
summer holidays. We can only keep
the school pool open over the holidays
with volunteers from the community.
This
gives
local
children
the
opportunity to become familiar with
the water in a safe pool.
Giant Pumpkin Competition
Spring is here and time to get your
patch ready for the “Kaiwaka School

PAPAROA A&P
SHOW NEWS
September and October have
been very busy for the Show
Team getting prepared for next
year’s A&P Show.
A brand new website has been developed
which should be live when you read this.
Go to www.paparoa.org.nz for up-to-date
information about the Show.
Also at the same time the Show will
introduce a range of new email addresses.
These will be listed on the website. If you
have any questions whatsoever you can
email info@paparoashow.org.nz
As a result of this change the Show will no
longer use the old email address
paparoashow@hotmail.co.nz
Another big change is signage. In
November large new signs will go up at the
entrance to the Showground. One sign will
inform viewers about the Show, its events
and date.
The other will be a dynamic “What’s On
At The Showground” sign. This will be
updated regularly by the Show Committee
with the latest news about events and
activities.
Another key activity for the N.K.A.A.
Committee has been the Sponsorship
campaign. In August/September over 75
North
Kaipara
organisations
were
approached
with
a
multi-option
opportunity to sponsor. The response has
been excellent with more sponsors yet to
come. The funds raised will be used to
improve the infrastructure and quality of
the N.K.A.A. Showground and the Paparoa
A&P Show. Details about sponsorship
options are also on the website.
Recently prospective stallholders have
been sent information about the Market
Stalls and Trade Sites arrangements for
2015. If you want to know about this then
please go to the website.
There is the all-important information
about Events Schedules. This is all on the
website together with entry forms. It’s now
very easy to find out what is happening at
the Paparoa A&P Show.
The
Rotary
Club
of
Maungaturoto
and
Districts
proudly announces the undertaking of a
major
community
project
in
the
Mangawhai – Kaiwaka area. An 11,420
square metre property at 116 Kaiwaka-
Mangawhai Road has been purchased for
the purpose of building a convertible barn
on it and presenting a desirable lifestyle
block for sale by auction. The block will be
within walking distance from Kaiwaka
School and just minutes away from the
Kaiwaka township and all of the shopping,
eating, sporting and other community
facilities it has to offer.
The building will be a barn style structure
designed by Tim Magill’s Barnbuilders of
Kaiwaka and will be constructed under
their management using trainee and other
voluntary help. Its design is such that it can
be easily be converted into a serviced
family home.
It is Rotary’s intention to use the project to
raise funds for its community work, to
provide a worthy project to teach carpentry
skills to aspirants in the building industry,
and to further profile the work of Rotary
and its community contribution. Assistance
in the project will be sought and welcomed
from trade suppliers, specialist contractors
and indeed anyone willing.
The intention is to have the project
completed and available for auction by
autumn 2015. It is expected to appeal to
lifestylers looking for an affordable way of
settling into the Kaiwaka community with
its like-minded residents.
The Maungaturoto & Districts Rotary
Club covers the are area from Matakohe,
Paparoa, Maungaturoto, Waipu, Kaiwaka
and Mangawhai. It is very active in
supporting youth and children as well as
giving to charities nationally. Help for the
project is required. Donations of voluntary
help, material, monetary assistance would
be very welcome

SECOND PUBLIC MEETING ENERGY COOP KAIWAKA
Solarise your house: Energy Coop Kaiwaka organises a second group purchase.
The Energy Coop Kaiwaka realized a successful group purchase for 12 families with the aim to buy the best available
Solar Hot Water technology at strongly reduced cost. The Energy Coop is passionate about solar energy and serious
about helping the community to save energy. Local energy expert Eric Jansseune has selected carefully the solar
equipment, imported from Europe with worldwide certification and proven lifespan of 30 years. Payments conditions are
straight forward, with no hidden cost and affordable installation prices with a trained solar team.
The combination of gas for cooking, hot water production
and solar hot water is the most cost-effective way to run
your home. The Energy Coop offers a second group
purchase including gas califonts, gas bottles, solar hot
water and solar power.
Priorities for electricity savings
Solutions that will really reduce your energy bill:
- Using LPG gas for hot water production and cooking.
- Bottled LPG gas costs average 20 ct/kWh, electricity
almost 28 ct/kWh. ( including GST)
- State of the art solar hot water can save 70 % on hot
water bill.
- State of the art solar power will only cost you 0.11/kWh
for more than 25 years
In the case of a typical 4 persons house , the following
savings can be realised compared to all electrical use at 28 ct/kWh (incl. GST):

KAIWAKA/MANGAWHAI CUBS
and
SCOUTS
With thanks to a substantial grant from
the Mangawhai Club our Kaiwaka/
Mangawhai Scout group was able to
attend JOTA/JOTI last weekend in
Auckland.
Jamboree On The Air (JOTA) takes
places every year on the third weekend
of October. This is an event where
Scouts can communicate with each
other over radio amateur frequencies
with the assistance of a local radio
amateur crew.
This event is combined with Jamboree
On The Internet (JOTI), which is an
international Scout Meeting on the
Internet.
During
the
weekend,
thousands of Scouts from all over the
world
came
together
and
communicated with each other over the
internet, using any technologies locally
available, from web browsers to e-
mail, chat programs, microphones,
scanners and digital cameras.
The group of 24 Scouts and parent
helpers stayed two nights at Camp
Maynard in Albany
and the children
were in charge of
meals and cleaning.
We were also very fortunate to be able
to visit Kelly Tarltons, Waiwera Hot
Pools and North Head where we
investigated the many tunnels. One of
the highlights for the children was at
North Head when a busload of
Japanese tourists pulled up next to us.
They all were intrigued with our
Scouts
in
their
uniforms
and
surrounded us, taking many photos.
Our Scouts then did a Haka for the
tourists, much to their delight. The
Scouts felt like celebrities!
The Kaiwaka/Mangawhai troop did us
proud. We are so very lucky to have so
many wonderful young people in our
community.
Many thanks to Scout Leader Jenny
Webb who organised the weekend –
the Scouts all had a wonderful time!

KAIWAKA GARDEN
& FLORAL
GROUP
The meeting for October proved a very
interesting
and
enjoyable
day
especially as we were so lucky with the
weather as well. We visited three of
our
members'
gardens
in
the
Mangawhai area and they were all
quite different.
Agnes’s garden in Jack Boyd Drive
was flat with raised humps which she
has utilised with planting and growing
healthy shrubs and plants. Agnes has
lived there since 2013 and they are
busy creating a new area out the back
of the house with the help of their
landscape gardener-daughter so it will
be interesting to see the progress next
time round.
Meredy has lived on Molesworth Drive
for 18 months and there are established
trees and even a bush walk. The garden
has lots of colour and a healthy vege
patch.
Margaret lives in the new sub division
at Park Avenue and has been there for
a year, her section is flat and the
colourful garden is immaculate.
We had afternoon tea and our meeting
at the Parks Kitchen with two pleasant
young ladies as hostesses.
There were no competitions this
month. The raffle winners were Robyn
Moffat and Sue Hamilton Wallace.
Happy Birthday to Jean Black and
Lorraine Lusty who received lovely
posies. We are sorry to accept the
resignation of Isa Christensen and we
hope you will re-join us when your
health is better Isa. We hope our
members who were unable to be with
us are getting better quickly and we
will see you next month.
Next month’s visits are at Glynis
Smith’s and Robyn Moffat’s both at
Waipu,
travelling
instructions
and
carpooling
will
be
emailed later members.
