Russian-born singer Yulia delivered an
evening of beautiful music at the Yulia
& Friends concert held at the Kaiwaka
Sports Complex recently.
The crowd enjoyed the varied
repertoire from an internationally
renowned entertainer who speaks four
but sings in 11 languages.
Known as ‘the voice of rare beauty’,
Yulia opened up the opportunity to
showcase some of our local talent and
six young singers Molly Curnow,
Jasmine Sampson, Tasha Perrett,
Mercedes Von Dinklage, Michelle
Clark and Ollie Knox conquered their
nerves and joined her on stage.
“The Yulia and Friends Foundation
was inspired by people opening doors
for me when I was younger,
wholeheartedly without reserve and
now I can do the same for others,” said
Yulia.
Sydney-based Yulia says New Zealand
is still close to her heart, and she
delivered six New Zealand concerts in
one week culminating in our show.
Proceeds from the concert went to the
Kaiwaka Sports Association. Feedback
that concert organiser Cheryl Anderson
received afterwards was all positive: “I
enjoyed Yulia's voice and the whole
event was magic!” - Heidelind, “what
an amazing evening with Yulia – in our
little town, with our people, sitting
amongst nature, surrounded with love”
- Lia, “the concert was a great success
and I have heard people saying all over
the place how enjoyable it was” -
Carolyn.
David McCarthy of
Skylark
Studio
videoed the concert
and is making a DVD
for each of the singers
and has offered to give
each
one
a
complimentary
recording session in
his studio. Also, Merv
Huxford who was in
the crowd was so
impressed with the
concert and the calibre
of performance from
the young singers that
he has set up a grant
for each of them for
$350 in the name of
A.P.
Education
Charitable Trust to be
used on educational
resources.
Many people helped pull this evening
off. Thank you to:
• Gateway North Motorlodge who
donated a nights accommodation to
Yulia & her family
• Shamrock Service Station who
donated a petrol voucher to Yulia
• Kauri Park Nurseries
who loaned plants to
decorate the stage
• Reyahn Leng who did
the sound and lighting
• Andrew Griffiths who
designed the flyer

We are so grateful to

with her fans. To view photos from the
concert you can visit our website

We have had a very positive start to the
2015 academic year. There are lots of
new students as many families move
into the surrounding area. The Year 13
students are taking the challenge and
responsibility of leadership seriously
and did a great job of ensuring that the
Year 7 and 9 camps were a real
success. Although there were periods
of heavy downpours the spirits were
high
with
everyone
enjoying
themselves. The Year 7 and 8 students
are loving the new playground area. It
is great to see Year 13s interacting with
the juniors by playing basketball at
intervals and lunchtimes.
We welcome a number of new staff
members into the school. Each of them
brings energy, enthusiasm, experience
and fresh ideas. The staff introduce
themselves later in the newsletter.
Special congratulations to all the
students who received NCEA Levels 1,
2 and 3 endorsed with Merit and
Excellence and for the students who
received NCEA course endorsements.
Students
who
received
overall
endorsements will receive a badge at a
special assembly later in the term. The
number
of
students
receiving
endorsements has risen by 70%
(overall endorsements) and 77%
(Excellence course endorsements).
Well done to all these students and a
huge thank you to the teachers who
have made this a reality.
The 50th Annual Swimming Sports
held on Thursday 12th February was
moved back to a daytime event due to
community feedback. It was a superb
day with a great mixture of competition
and fun. A number of records were
broken and the highlight of the day was
the relays which the whole school were
able to watch. The current students
won the final
relay which involved beating teams of
ex students and staff. I’m sure that this
will become a regular feature of future
swimming sports competitions.
The whakatauki for 2015 is ‘He waka
eke noa’, ‘We’re all in this waka,
without exception’. This was outlined
to the Year 13s at their leadership
training, the staff at the outset of the
year and the whole school through
assemblies. I am a great believer in
teamwork
to
achieve
positive
outcomes. I invite you all into this
journey too. We have two vacancies for
Board of Trustee positions. Consider
carefully who could join the team.
A huge thank you to the following
companies for their kind donations to
the school over the past month.
Zealandia Horticulture for the beautiful
flowers for our garden beds, Atlas
Concrete for sand for our long jump
pits and Carters, Maungaturoto for the
freight of this sand. Thank you for the
ongoing support from 100% Electrical,
Maungaturoto for the sponsorship of
our Golden Kauri Awards System.
Thank you also to the many
community and parent helpers who
helped to ensure that the 50th Annual
Swimming Sports was a huge success.
I’d like to take this opportunity to
thank Wayne Linton and Shane
Campbell for their hard work and
dedication on the BOT over the last 18
months. I also wish Shane Campbell
well in the next stage of his journey as
he starts his new position as Principal
of Bohally School in Blenheim in Term
Two.

KAIWAKA GARDEN
& FLORAL CLUB
Twenty members attended the April meeting
held at Alvin and Rosemary Browne’s home
overlooking the estuary. Rosemary’s garden
was neat and tidy even though she says she
does have trouble with the "sea wind"; they
have lived there permanently for 3 years. We
thank Rosemary for still having us after the
sudden death of her mother and we all
extend our sympathy to Rosemary and her
family.
In December, Rosemary arranged a very
enjoyable mystery bus trip for our Christmas
outing; we visited two lovely gardens at
Warkworth, and had a very nice meal at the
Warkworth Road House Restaurant.
Later in the week some of us got together
and made posies and shortbread biscuits for
the Retirement Village members. We also
donated the parcels for under the Wellsford
Medical Clinic's Christmas tree.
Jacquie Duffy from Mangawhai Village Gas
and plants was invited to speak at our
February meeting and we enjoyed her talk
on plants and sprays suitable for controlling
bugs and diseases, also different potting
mixes and animal food available and
different brands of seeds. Jacquie had a few
fun questions and when they were answered
correctly she awarded a small prize.
Mangawhai Village Gas also donated a plant
voucher for the day which was won by
Adrienne Osman.
Happy Birthday to the following January and
February babies: Anne Shimmin, Elinor
Robinson, Margaret Whittaker, and Jenny
Chellew; all received posies made by
Lorraine. The other two raffle winners were
2nd prize Sharyn, and 3rd Ann.
The results of the competitions were:-
Best bloom:- 1st Fay Burnett – pom pom dahlia,
2nd Jenny Chellew - sunflower. Spike:- 1st Fay -
delphinium, 2nd Meredy Ballard - geranium.
Best Annual:– 1st Jenny Wills - pansy, 2nd Fay -
cosmos. Fruit – own choice:- 1st Fay - peach, 2nd
an orange (owner please let Lorraine know). 3
beans:– 1st Sharyn Mclean, 2nd Caron Bastable.
L shaped arrangement:- Senior: 1st L Lusty, 2nd
Sue Hamilton-Wallace; Novice: 1st Meredy, 2nd
Jenny Chellew. Wild card:- 1st Fay - capsicum,
2nd Rosemary - lettuce. Most Outstanding:- Fay -
Delphinium.
Next month the meeting is the A.G.M to be
held 1:30 p.m. sharp at Sharyn Mclean's.
Subs are now due. Entries close 1:15 p.m. no
late entries accepted. Fruit – Apple,

WWI ANZAC Biscuit Tins
The RSA and New Zealand
company AFM Group, have
joined forces to produce a range of
limited edition WWI commemorative
Anzac biscuit tins. Every tin sold will
result in a donation to the RSA’s
support services; helping veterans, ex-
service and service men and women,
and their dependants, when they are
most in need.
They will be available in seven limited
edition designs, featuring photographic
scenes of New Zealanders during the
First World War.
“Anzac biscuits are a part of our
national heritage. 100 years ago they
were a comforting taste of home that
sustained
our
soldiers
on
the
battlefields of WWI.”
They
will
be
available
from
Countdown, New World, PAK'nSAVE,
The Warehouse and Nosh from late
February 2015, with a recommended
retail price of $9.99.
KAIWAKA FITNESS
The cooler mornings and clearer skies
show that whilst Summer is here, Autumn
is nudging on its shoulders. It’s still hot
though and our exercise efforts at the
Fitness Centre come with that aspect,
especially when a smattering of rain bumps
up the humidity.
It’s pleasing to see that out Fitness Centre
has increased its membership numbers over
the last few months. Part of our hurdle is to
make ourselves known other than by word
of mouth. With that in mind if you know of
anyone who’d like to join the Centre, the
fee is $50 from now until mid-May which
equates to approximately $4.50 a week.
Hear that? $4.50 a WEEK! Keys and forms
from our good friends and supporters at
Jaques 4 Square.
Now hopefully a positive feature: I’m often
asked if we provide fitness programmes
and schedules and to date providing these
professionally has been a hurdle. Starting
Monday 23 February we have been
discussing using the (paid) services of a
qualified trainer for a trial period, who will
be appearing at our Fitness Centre. If you
are a member you will have access to
Nariano’s services and contact for future
needs. Protocol requires us to make this
official from the Saturday 7 March by
which time we will have all the necessary
and appropriate paperwork in place. Please
visit the Centre though in the meantime and
at least have a chat to him if a programme
is of interest to you.
If you’re a beach-lover enjoy this beautiful
weather; if you’re struggling to keep your
gardens and/or pastures green – you’re not
alone. All the best. ~Michael

The Zonta garage sale held on 7th/8th
February was a marvellous success and
raised just over $2000 for the
Mangawhai Zonta group local projects.
As people were buying, going home
and then returning with more goods,
the group has enough for another
garage sale and will be holding this on
the weekend of 21st/22nd February at
the same place (104 Moir Street) which
is the same day as the Mangawhai
Domain market.
This time it has been agreed that some
of the takings will be given to the
Sophie Elliot Foundation for the
purchase of the "Love-Me-Not" books
which are provided on the
courses run in schools for
teenagers (both boys and girls) to help
in teaching what is good and what is
bad relationship behaviour.
Also on
Sunday 8th March at 9am
at
"The Cove Cafe" at Waipu Cove, the
Zonta Club of Mangawhai will be
making its annual award to two Waipu
women who have made a significant
contribution to the Waipu Community
as part of the International Women's
Day. The Club President, Jan Barnett
will be presenting the Yellow Rose
award to Jill Mutch and Juanita
McGoldrick all are welcome to attend.
Kaiwaka Can is the name taken by a
group of people interested in finding
ways to support Kaiwaka and its
surrounding district. The group formed
after the meeting held in Kaiwaka by
Kaipara District Council late last year
and it has now met three times, more
people joining at each meeting.
It has a fourfold mission statement,
namely:
- Managing Kaiwaka well
- Growing Kaiwaka well
- Enjoying Kaiwaka well
- Caring for people in the community
well.
The aim is to provide a forum for all
interested parties to meet, explore
ideas, get alongside all that is already
happening and stimulate creative ideas
for the future of our district. It
recognises how much is already
happening, especially through the
Sports Association and the Hall
Committee as well as the various
services in the area. However there are
plenty of areas where people feel more
input is needed. The problem with the
lights that gave the town the name
“Little town of lights” is an example.
Others point to traffic problems with
speed, lack of footpaths and difficulty
crossing the road as examples. Others
want to see a far more integrated
approach to development as the
businesses are developing in separate
locations with no links between them.
The group plans to meet regularly and
is working on the best way to get good
outcomes. Those who have already
joined the group are diverse in gifts and
backgrounds and bring a lot of energy
to the task. However we need even
wider representation and especially
strong links with existing groups. At
the next meeting, we hope there will be
more adding their voice and their
energies to the future of our fascinating
district.
Next meeting is Monday 30th March,
6.30pm in the Archie Bull Hall behind
St Paul’s Anglican Church.
If you have any ideas or questions,
contact Derek Christensen on 09
9469077 or 0273572751.

Beach Day
Last week Kaiwaka School students,
teachers and Whanau packed up their
togs, picnic lunches and sunscreen for a
day at Mangawhai Estuary. Playground
fun was a highlight for some and
sandcastle construction drew others,
with two swims to cool us down in
between.
Lots of fun was had by all.
Thanks to the proprietors of the Camp
who let us use the toilet facilities and
also to Rob Grey and his mate Manakai
who stood guard in the deep outer
reaches of the water. (It was a little
chilly standing in one spot for so long.)
Senior students took turns to push the
younger ones on the playground.
Students planning and plotting at the
start of construction of their sand
castles for the competition. Great sand
for castles!

After a week or two of patchy weather, Saturday
the 14th of February was hot and sunny. With the
gazebos; which were on loan from 100% Fergus
Appliances, The Vet Centre, Small Pukeko and
Play Centre Maungaturoto; casting shade on the
Primary School field, the over 150 attendees
(including an eight week old baby or two) enjoyed
the third annual Teddy Bear’s Picnic. The Picnic
is a free annual event organised by the
Maungaturoto Residents Association, with a 5 and
under focus. It is a fun morning where parents and
children alike have a chance to mingle, play, take
home prizes and have a good time, this year was
no exception. It is such great time that both Peppa
Pig and the Cookie monster visited!
The almost continuous story time was read by
Sheryl Cullen (Epic Kids- Friday afternoons at
the Good News Congregational Church) as
families stopped to picnic amongst the cushions.
Play Centre Maungaturoto, which is open beside
the School Monday and Wednesday mornings,
brought a large selection of activities including
water and kitchen play and play dough. Plunket
ran a colouring in section with a competition,
which is part of their awareness week. Parents
were able to speak with the Community Co-
ordinator Tina Ball about the current changes
occurring with Plunket Maungaturoto with the
closure of the rooms. A clinic will still be run out
of Maungaturoto with the offices being in
Paparoa.
Small Pukeko Kaiwaka (new ownership of Small
Poppies has instigated the name change) brought
a clown who was skilled in making balloon
animals for children to take home and they had
delicious cupcakes to add to the picnic basket.
Otamatea Community Services and Nga Ripo
helped facilitate the Adopt a Teddy table with
over 70 teddy bears and soft toys being re-homed.
100% Fergus Appliances not only supplied a
gazebo under which the free apples, plums and
milk and the scavenger hunt could be collected
but also a voucher to go along prizes from RD1,
Dreams, Made by Me (Beth De Groote), Our
Little Gems, Four Square, Tony’s Post Shop,
Mainly Music Maungaturoto (Tuesdays @
10am), Tulips and other donors for the Picnic’s
colouring in competition and the children’s and
adults spot prizes.
Music played by Nona Rogers was a beautiful
compliment to the dance of the bubbles around
the Mayfair pole. The Fonterra Grassroots funded
bouncy castle and moon hoppers were once again
a big hit as was the miniature horse and pony
rides. Maungaturoto Fire Brigade brought two
fire trucks which were open again
for children to take a ride. The Fire
Brigade is run by volunteers and a
vital part of our community.
A big thank you goes not only to the
Sponsors, Supporters, Attendees and
the Duke of Edinburgh teenagers
and their friends who help make this
event what it is but also the others
who add their support; to setting up
(Allan, Jamal and Justin); to helping
(Justine, May, Kenny, Shawna); to
judging (Daniel) and just morally
(Amy, Terri and Mrs Parsons).
Till next February!

Kaiwaka Bugle - 3 March 2015

During February Niki and Laila Harré
made a pilgrimage around the North
Island to reconnect with people so that
we could “Rethink the System” with
them. The idea was that they did not
spend any money or make any
arrangements themselves but trusted
that we in the communities they visited
would organise ourselves and care for
them. They did not want to appear to
be bludging so they donated a
substantial sum to chosen charities
ahead of time. Their dependence on the
local people created a different
relationship with us and particularly
travelling by hitch-hiking allowed them
to connect with people they would not
otherwise have met.
On Saturday, February 21st, it was our
turn, in Kaiwaka and Mangawhai, to
host Niki and Laila. Alan Preston from
the Travellers Rest provided them with
accommodation and 23 people came to
the meeting held in Kaiwaka.
Niki Harré, who is a psychology
lecturer, suggested that emotion
underlies our responses to the world,
however realistic and logical they may
appear. The emotional response to the
issue of “climate change” is often fear
which leads to denying or running
away from the problem. The emotional
response to injustice is often anger
which can be destructive. Responses
founded in positive emotion are more
likely to be successful.
Niki also challenged us to think about
the difference between a “finite game”
in which the purpose is to win and an
“infinite game” in which the purpose is
to involve everyone and make the
game continue to work for all players
indefinitely. This is an idea proposed
by philosopher James Carse. Niki used
a comparison between test cricket and
beach cricket to illustrate this. We were
each asked for one word for something
of infinite value and something of
finite value and Niki then showed us a
cloud diagram with the size of the
words representing the number of times
people usually offer that word.
Laila shared some of her activist
history looking at infinite and finite
games that were played and examining
the way, since the 1980's, the emotions
driving activists have become more
negative.
The meeting ended with a workshop
session in which we split into groups of
4 or 5. Each member of the group was
invited to present an idea for positive
change to “the system” and relate it to
the infinite values in the cloud diagram.
We all responded with more ways the
idea could support infinite values in the
community. Afterwards we had time
for a cuppa and the level of eager,
informal conversation suggested that
most of us had found the evening
inspiring – Thank you, Niki and Laila.

IT’S TIME TO CELEBRATE – 50th Reunion
Before the celebrations begin next year we need to get on and organise
and promote what is set to be a FANTASTIC weekend of memories,
sport, entertainment and fun.
Please give me a call if you are keen to help out. We hope to form a small
committee plus collate a list of past students and staff who can assist with
getting the word out.
I would love to hear from you.
