KAIWAKA GOOD SORTS

Congratulations to Paula and Greg Jaques, the latest

recipients of a bunch of flowers from the Flower Girl for

their good works in the community.

They were nominated by Cheryl, who said they are

“running a busy, well-stocked supermarket, sponsor lots of

local events, allow the shop to be a drop-off point for lots of

things, keep Bugles, Avon, courier parcels, etc there for the

public to collect, keep track of keys to various community

facilities, are the collection point for the food bank, allow

groups to fundraise outside the shop etc.” And we all know

they do so much more for the community.

Well done! And well done to the shop staff who kept it

quiet from them, too!

The Bugle team also appreciate their support, and think this

nomination is well deserved.

OUR NEW BUGLE PRINTER

The Bugle Team has upgraded its printer to a Riso 9000-

series machine. Similar in functions to the old Riso printer

(meaning your Bugle team doesn’t have a steep learning

curve with this transition), it is faster and produces clearer

photos, graphics and type. Can you see the difference in this

issue?

The old printer (a 5000-series machine) was purchased mid-

2010 (we think! memories are fading), and has printed more

than two and a quarter million pages since then.

The ProPrinter (two printers ago) had a top speed of 130

pages per minute, which the team thought was brilliant at

the time. The new Riso has a top speed of 185 sheets per

minute - almost 50% faster. It’s significantly quieter, too!

assistant editor Wendy Howard, with the new printer.

ABOUT TOWN

.........

Cheryl now needs 8 weeks’ notice

Scouts

from

Kaiwaka-Mangawhai

Scout group walked between the towns

picking

roadside

rubbish,

fundraising for Scout Jamboree on the

11th and 12th June.

We collected two truck and trailer

loads of rubbish. We were well

supported by courteous drivers and lots

of toots to keep us going. What we

now know about our community is they

drink a lot of coffee and alcohol as

there were 100’s of bottles and coffee

cups on the verge. The Scouts were

amazing and thank you to the parent

helpers that kept us safe.

The

Scouts

were

collecting

sponsorship for the walk which will go

towards the cost of the 10 day 21st NZ

Scout Jamboree. Along with Scouts

from Dargaville and Horahora and

Australia, they form a troop of 36 who

will be among more than 3000 Scouts

and leaders from NZ and around the

world attending. We had many people

asking

how

they

could

donate. Donations can be made to

Scouting Association of New Zealand

Kaiwaka BNZ 02 0484 0022539 01

Jamboree is a once in a life-time

experience, with activities, adventure,

challenges, friendship and fun. The

Scouts put into practice their planning

and leadership skills as they make

many of the decisions around all

aspects of the Jamboree. They have

been involved in the planning process

right from the beginning. At a

recent meeting they designed

their own troop badge, special camp

uniform, site entrance and market day

activity.

The event includes a visit to Sir Peter

Jackson’s WW1 aircraft display, as

well as exploring on land, in the water

and around the Blenheim and Picton

area.

Leader Jenny Webb says the Kaiwaka-

Mangawhai scouts have almost reached

the halfway point with their fundraising

goal of $1700 per Scout. “It is a huge

undertaking, as many of the families

have more than one child eligible. Each

individual needs to raise funds for him/

herself, and support their contingent’s

fundraising efforts to cover the cost of

activities, meals, and airfares.”

Kaiwaka-Mangawhai Scouts meet on

Thursdays at Hakaru. The group’s

activities this year are designed to

prepare the 10-15 year olds for 10 days

under canvas. “The standing camp held

during the holidays with lots of

tramping was brilliant,” Jenny says.

“They have learnt to cook meals, light

fires, they also will attend training

courses, and pre-Jamboree camps to get

to know each other and work together

to get the most from the experience.”

Scouts meet at Hakaru Hall on

Thursdays during school terms

from 5.30pm to 7.30pm. Rock on up.

When you read this, one President will

have completed his term and joint

Presidents – Tim Magill and Merv

Huxford will be in office. Each year,

the leadership bring their own style to

the club and this year we are aiming to

meet away from Maungaturoto more

frequently as well as having a more

specific focus in relation to the projects

we undertake. The main areas of focus

are: Health, Education and the

Environment. In the past we have

traditionally met every Tuesday, but

we will now have one Tuesday night

free to focus on other community

activities. You will also notice

elsewhere in this publication an

advertisement for expressions of

interest for catering as we are losing

the services of Pam Chapman who has

catered for the club over many years,

always providing superb meals,

whether on a club night or special

occasion.

We were fortunate to have one of the

Commissioners for KDC speak at a

recent meeting that was attended by

approx. 60 people from throughout the

area. For many of us, this was the first

time we heard a succinct talk on where

the Council was pre-commissioners,

what they have done and what the

expectation for the future is. This was

an excellent presentation which

clarified many aspects of the past three

years.

As a club, we also sponsor young

people on Rotary organised activities

and at the moment we have sponsored

a young lad from Ruawai who will go

to South Australia in late June. He will

travel with his “twin” who has been at

Ruawai College for three months.

Because these youngsters are usually

In Year 10, their NCEA studies are not

hindered and they are able to forge

long-lasting friendships with people

from another country. We are fortunate

that there are host families in both

countries that are willing to take these

young people in for the duration of the

stay.

Watch for the movie “MAHANA”

which is being

held

Friday29 July

at 7.30pm, in

Kaiwaka

–

some of the proceeds from this will go

towards helping send Hakaru Scouts to

Jamboree this year.

We are also looking to support students

who want to visit “Shadows of Shoah”,

a presentation by holocaust survivors

that is running at the Hub in Whangarei

for the next two to three months. Entry

is by gold coin as is entry to “Digital

Rembrandt”, in the same venue for the

next month. ~ Eileen

We owe a great big thank you to all

who helped make our fund-raiser
auction a great success

From those

generous businesses and individuals in

Maungaturoto, Kaiwaka, Paparoa,

Mangawhai and surrounding areas, to

the members of those communities who

came to enjoy the festivities and our

delicious supper. It was great fun and

we all enjoyed the whole preparation

and planning so much there’s been a

feeling

elation

around

the

Community House for weeks. Not

forgetting of course the whole reason

for the event; we raised a tidy sum to

help us continue to do what we do in

the community for the community.

We could not have done it without the

fantastic talents of Stephen Rosser as

our auctioneer; thank you Stephen,

you’re a star.

At the time of printing we will have

been to the Ministry of Social

Development Hui at the Otamatea

Marae. This event has been planned

for some time as an important event

involving all social agencies and

interested individuals with the option to

contribute to discussions.

We at the Community House continue

to provide parcels from our food bank

to those in desperate need to keep

going in their daily struggles to survive

hardship and the colder days and

nights. We thank those who are always

ready to provide surplus produce and

grocery items for the food bank.

We have a great team of willing

volunteer helpers; without whom it

would be extremely difficult to run as

smoothly as we do; however there are

sometimes occasions when illness or

other commitments take place and

things become a little difficult. We

would love to have some more on hand

to be able to call on in these

circumstances, especially when the first

Wednesday of each month comes

around bringing with it the seniors’

luncheon. Are you a capable cook who

would love to showcase your skills by

producing a tasty meal for our senior

residents? It’s just once a month and

you will be rewarded for your efforts.

Also there are other ways we could

make use of some willing helpers in the

Community House.

Come and see Liz, or phone the House

Chose one hour on one day this week

and count the birds you see in your

garden, paddock, park or school and by

using

the

Tally

Sheet

from

www.landcareresearch.co.nz check out

your birds. There is a lot of information

available to help identify the birds.

Then send your results to the NZ Bird

Survey.

This year marks the 10th anniversary of

the New Zealand Garden Bird Survey.

The Landcare Research led citizen

science project started last Saturday (25

June) and runs until Sunday 3 July.

Last year, about 138,000 birds were

counted nationwide, up 38,000 on the

previous year and one of the highest

counts on record.

Survey founder and organiser Eric

Spurr, a research associate at Landcare

Research, said harsh conditions last

winter probably forced more birds to

move into gardens in search of food.

“So far the weather this autumn has

been really mild and NIWA has

predicted temperatures to be above

average this winter in all regions, so

this may have an impact on bird

numbers,” Spurr said.

“Last year, the top 10 birds were

similar to the previous year with the

exception that the song thrush dropped

out and the goldfinch swooped in,” he

said.

Since the survey began in 2007,

volunteers have counted more than one

million birds in over 25,000 gardens

across the country.

Over that time, the top two most

abundant species have remained the

same: the house sparrow and silvereye.

The third and fourth position have been

battled out between the blackbird and

the starling. While fifth and sixth place

has typically either been myna or tui –

although the myna does not occur in

the South Island.

Landcare Research ecologist Catriona

MacLeod

said

studying

bird

populations

provided

valuable

information about the state of the

environment.

“Birds not only bring enjoyment to our

everyday lives, they also tell us about

the health of the environment we live

in. To understand our environment we

need to build a picture of birdlife

across New Zealand,” she said.

“All you need is an hour, a comfy seat,

record what you see, and then submit

the results online.

“The more people involved, the more

we can learn.”

MacLeod has been using the survey as

a case study for her building

trustworthy biodiversity indicators

research, funded by the Ministry for

Business, Innovation and Employment.

Full instructions on how to take part in

the survey, including the tally

sheet and bird identification guide, are

available on the Landcare Research

website.

“The guide takes the guess work out of

identifying what bird you see and

makes the survey an activity for all

ages,” she said.

MacLeod also came up with the

“Chocolate Fish Index”, a way to make

it easier to identify birds by comparing

their size with a 20 gram chocolate

fish. At one end of the scale a fantail

weighs the same as a chocolate fish

tail, while at the other extreme a kererū

is the equivalent of 30 chocolate fish.

Ed: The Chocolate Fish Index is a fun

watch at

https://www.youtube.com/watch?

to learn about our birds.

A Cycle/Walkway Trail for Kaipara?

The Otago Rail Trail, The A2O (Alps

to Ocean), the Mountain to Sea, the

Hauraki Cycle Trail, the West Coast

Trail and many more I have yet to

explore – but – no Kaipara Trail. Who

wants a cycle trail? Who would like

more money from tourists coming into

our small towns? Who needs more jobs

for our local people?

Common sights on Cycle Trails – over

100 cycles outside a coffee shop in

Otago, old hotels being done up and

extended with lounges full of people

eating locally produced food. But -no

one really wants lots more cyclists on

roads – they cause problems slowing

traffic – and quite a few die. The tonne

of raw metal travelling at 100k per

hour soon demolishes a 70k person on

a push bike. Our Northland roads are

not particularly wide and we have

many blind corners.

The answer is cycle/walkway trails

with as much of them as possible off

the road. This of course means we need

the help of land owners. The A2O trail

is only partly off the road as some

farmers did not want strangers riding

across their land. Fair enough. But after

a few years of increasing numbers of

cyclists using the back roads they are

changing their minds. The problems

associated with cycle paths crossing the

farms have not been realised and in fact

many have erected cabins to make a

nice bit of extra income. After cycling

with family and grandchildren over

many trails I have seen no rubbish at all

on the trails – unlike the roadsides

where I can pick up a rubbish bag full

easily every few weeks. The farmers

who were originally against the trails

are now very much in favour of them.

The Otago Rail Trail is now the biggest

financial earner in the district. Ohakune

has found a way of generating income

in the summer through cycle/walking

trails.

Kaipara can do this too.

So back to the Kaipara Cycle/Walkway

Trail idea – where to start? Where

would it go? My thoughts are that it

should start in Kaiwaka go through

Maungaturoto, Paparoa, Matakohe,

Ruawai, Tokatoka to Dargaville. From

Dargaville there are already some plans

at the Kaipara District Council for it to

go right through to Waima via

Donnelly’s Crossing and the Old

Coach Rd.

For me, I think it’s best to start at the

easiest point with the Matakohe/

Ruawai section using the stop banks

and then back roads or farm land

crossings from Matakohe West Road to

Ruawai. The other sections, I have lots

of ideas of where it may go but need to

have local people involved in these

decisions. Funding can be applied for.

The Kaipara District Council is happy

to help where possible. We have a

labour source that we may be able to

tap into.

So what I need to ask - are there any

people in these areas that would be

interested in helping to make this

happen in the near future? If so please

email stella.clyde@gmail.com ~

Stella

Editor’s Note: I have been discussing

the cycle/walkway with Stella. She

envisions the southern starting point, at

this stage, to be from McClean Park

and following the Kaipara Harbour

foreshore.

SLEEPOVER PARTY

KAIWAKA SPORTS COMPLEX

My name is Holly Anderson, I am a student at

Otamatea High School. I'm fundraising to go on a

school arts trip to America next year. I've come up with

a new fundraising idea & I hope you like it!

I am going to offer a Sleepover Party at the Kaiwaka

Sports Complex! This is the first time anything like this

has been held at the Sports Complex

It will be for kids 6 - 12 years old on Saturday 6

August. I've planned

lots of neat activities such as: night-time walk through the bush,

possum spotting, fun gymnastics session, photo booth, movie with

popcorn, games in the gymnasium etc plus I will be feeding the kids

dinner, dessert, supper & breakfast. Adults will be staying over too. The

cost is $20 per child. Numbers are limited, so it's first in, first served.

If you have a kid who is keen to have a fun time, please ring me on

4312 051 or email my Mum, Cheryl Anderson at

kaiwakasports@gmail.com and we'll send you the information sheet.

Thank you,

Holly Anderson

POINT CURTIS

CRUISING CLUB

Kaiwaka School Room 6 visited

the Planetarium on Thursday 9th

June. This trip was very kindly

sponsored by the Matakohe

Museum as a part of their

Matariki celebrations. Schools

were invited to send 20 students

each.

Our students really loved this

experience,

especially

the

planetarium, where

unfortunately

photos could not

be taken as it was

completely

dark.

They

saw

our

current night sky

and learnt about

each of the planets

and some major

constellations

our southern skies.

The Observatory

was filled with

really interesting

telescopes and the

roof opened up so

they

could

used.

KAIWAKA SCHOOL

HOW TO

BECOME A

GOOD LEADER

When you have been called to

be a leader in business, in church or at

home there are important principles you

must always practise.

One is to realise there are trade-offs.

As responsibilities increase, rights

decrease. In a world where perks and

privileges often accompany the climb

to success, sometimes little thought is

given to the responsibilities of the

upward journey.

As John D. Rockefeller Jnr once said,

‘Every right implies a responsibility;

every opportunity, an obligation; every

possession, a duty.’

And from Luke 12:48 - ‘To whom

much is given, from him much will be

required; and to whom much has been

committed, of him they will ask the

more.’ ~

Ref. Rhema Media

"When I was a boy of fourteen, my

father was so ignorant I could hardly

stand to have the old man around.

But when I got to be twenty-one,

I was astonished at how much he had

learned in seven years."

-Mark Twain

Bookings

If you would like to book the Sports Complex for a private

function and have the bar open, I need to apply for a Special

Licence. The time the KDC takes to process this has now

been extended to 8 weeks - so if you would like to book an

event where alcohol will be served, you need to give me at

least 8 weeks notice.

A Special Licence will only be granted for an event where

substantial food will be supplied to the guests ie: a full

meal, not just nibbles and snacks. So this is something to

keep in mind before you book an event with us. For any

questions on licensing requirements, please ring me on 4312

051.

Year 12 Building & Construction

The students are just finishing their

first project, a garden bench. The focus

of this project

was

getting

students to mark

out

and

cut

timber accurately

and produce a

project to plans

supplied.

The

completed

benches are being

finished to a high

standard and the

students

are

proud

their

achievements. The next project in this

course are children’s picnic tables

which are being made for Happy Steps

Early Learning Centre in Dargaville.

This will be the students’ first time

doing a project for a client.

Molly Curnow sings for the Maui

Dolphins

Son of the Ocean is a song written by

Jamie McDowell and it is about the

Maui dolphin of which there are only

55 left. Recently Ms McDowell called

for singers to join her in recording this

song – ‘Son of the Ocean’ and she

called for 55 people to be exact. Molly

Curnow, from our school, decided to

send in an audition song and was one

of the 55 people selected to sing as a

backing vocalist. Molly said that her

and 54 others sang harmonies, echoes

and stamped and clapped parts to create

a depth of sound in Jamie’s song.

Molly said she found the whole

experience inspiring to be around

successful artists such as Jamie, and

humbling because she was with others

who were so passionate about music

and saving dolphins. Any proceeds

raised through this song will be given

to the world wildlife fund to support

their efforts in saving and protecting

the Maui dolphins. The song is

available on itunes if you want to

support this cause. Thanks to the team

of people keeping us informed and

making us aware of such situations.

Here is a link if you want to check it

out.

KAIWAKA CEMETERY - A Distant Grave.

Folk have asked about the gravestone

in the distance at the Kaiwaka

Cemetery. This lovely big memorial

marks the burial place of Andrew and

Elizabeth Reddy.

Andrew Reddy, Pukekaroro, was born

in Laois, Ireland and came to New

Zealand with his brother (one source

states it was with his cousin William

who went to live in Thames) in 1879.

He met and married Elizabeth Lethaby

in Auckland 18 May 1884. Elizabeth

was from Devon, England. They

moved north to work for the Coates

family at Pukekaroro.

Andrew and Elizabeth had nine

children. The 1893 and 1896 Electoral

Rolls record Andrew as a ploughman.

Sadly the youngest, Andrew or Andy

as many folk knew him, was born just

2 months after his father died of illness

at the age of 53 on 29 August 1902.

When Andrew was buried the

Kaiwaka Cemetery had just opened.

At this time only one burial had taken

place and with Andrew being of a

Catholic upbringing a distance was

marked out for his resting place, and in

1945 that of his wife. “It is a measure

of the distance that has been covered

in change of attitude, in the

intervening years, that the last

members of the Roman Catholic family

were buried, in the early nineteen-

eighties, among all the other

settlers...” ref. AP Watson.

Elizabeth stayed on in the family home

and “continued her skills as a

breadmaker over an even wider area.”

In a bakery with long ovens.

AP Watson, in his book ‘Hill of the

Sea Bird’, pages 149-150, tells

something of the Reddy family.

The photo below is from page 150. The

Reddy family, 1899-1900, Andrew Snr

and his wife Elizabeth - centre; Back

row: John, Pat and Bill; Front: Nora,

Henry, Mary, Annie, Ellen.
