**PLASTIC BAGS**

By Ronan Smythe (aged 10)

Did you know that the average New

Zealander uses about 36kg of plastic

packaging every year?

Here is another fact for you: about 1

million plastic bags are used every

minute!

It’s true that plastic bags are very

useful but a single plastic bag can take

up to 1000 years to disintegrate.

I feel sad that part of our land and

ocean are full of plastic. There are

islands of rubbish in the ocean, for

example, The Great Pacific Garbage

Patch is bigger than Texas! I feel angry

about this.

Here are some ideas of how you can

help:

Take cloth bags shopping with you.

Try not to buy foods with plastic

packaging around them.

Do three apples or a bunch of bananas

really need to go in their own plastic

bag?

Say ‘No thank you’ to plastic bags in

shops.

Did you know that plastic packaging

can be recycled?

Out of the 36kg of plastic packaging

used by each New Zealander every

year only 8kgs are recycled!

It’s true that you can’t put soft plastic

packaging in your recycling bags

because the plastic get clogged in the

recycling separators. So what you can

do is put your plastic in the

supermarket recycling bins. These bins

are

for

collecting

soft

plastic

packaging. It is then turned into useful

things like park benches.

So make a difference today:

REFUSE ~ REDUCE ~ REUSE ~ RECYCLE

in October. Last year we had over 400

people at Fright Night – making it one

of Kaiwaka's biggest events of the

year! As part of the evening we

transform the rugby changing rooms

into a 'haunted house' which children

can choose to walk through. We have

an earlier session for the younger

children and then dial up the scare-

factor for a later session for the older

children!

So, I am looking for some ideas to

make that later session really scary. If

you have any suggestions, please get in

touch with me (contact details below).

I'm also looking for some creative

people who are interested in helping

make decorations for the haunted

house. Any help would be much

appreciated.

Top of the Rock

Advance notice: the date for our next

Top of the Rock multi-sport challenge

has been set at Sunday 12th February.

It’s almost Spring!

Although, lets be fair, we

have had a very mild

winter.

It’s

been

difficult season for us.

We’ve all experienced serious illness

this winter so we won’t be sad to see

winter pass.

A number of people in our community

have had bad illnesses so I think we

will all be glad for the days to lengthen

and the nights to be warmer. I hope if

you have been sick you are starting to

come through the worst of it.

Books, Books and more Books!

We have had another lot of books

donated to us. Feel free to pop in and

see us and have a look at our

collection. Or even look in the

window! Books are $1 each or 3 for $2.

Fundraising Auction

The auction is getting closer. It will be

on Saturday 24 September at 2pm. The

lovely Hakaru Hall will be hosting the

auction. Refreshments will be available

as well as lots of exciting items and

services. Thanks to Ben Kloppers at

Remax who will be our auctioneer. If

you have something you wish to donate

or a service/time you are able to offer

we would love to hear from you.

How you can help us …

We are short of volunteers at the

moment so have had to cut our hours.

This has meant we are not able to open

on a Monday at present. As we are

such a small team we don’t have

enough people to cover when the

unthinkable happens and two or more

of us are sick at the same time.

Do you have a few hours to spare, or

could you be on call if we need

emergency cover? If so pop in and talk

to us or Iris at Kate’s Place or email

We had two visitors to our meeting this

month, the President of the Dargaville

Grey Power group and Area Delegate.

Much of our first meeting after our

AGM was taken up with discussion on

the re-legalisation of cannabis, so that

we can have a painkiller that works far

better than morphine for people who

are dying in great pain. There have

been many newspaper articles since the

original interview with Kath and

Beverley, which resulted in RNZ

interviews and articles in papers around

the country. Our petition is still

ongoing

www.facebook.com/

nzlegalise/ for anyone who would like

to sign (the close-off date has been

extended). If you would like us to send

you a copy of the petition, please

phone us – the phone numbers are

below.

The meeting was very disappointed not

to receive a reply from Dr Jonathan

Coleman on the Natural Health and

Supplements Bill. Legislation has or is

making illegal the choice of natural and

healthy plants and now our health

supplements, many of which we

depend on to maintain optimum health

our

senior

years.

Only

pharmaceutical substances/chemicals,

with all of the warnings on every

prescribed drug, will be available to

heal/ameliorate symptoms. Those with

compromised organs cannot safely take

prescribed pharmaceutical pain-relief

medicines, as they will kill their

already compromised organs, e.g. a

person with a stomach ulcer cannot

safely take a painkiller for arthritis.

Also, by giving the DHBs the right to

add fluoride to our water supplies, it is

another

chemical

that

scientific

evidence proves is not safe. Those on

tank water now will be subjected to this

fluoridated water when visiting the

larger centres or on admission to

hospitals. Our perception is that that

keeping clean, green and healthy is not

something this Government wants for

New Zealanders. It seems the days are

long-gone when the Government was

elected to serve the people – the people

now serve the Government. We feel

decisions are made for us, our choices

on all levels are fast-going, and our

voices are ignored.

We have just received advice that there

is a submission that can be made to

Food Safety ANZ (FSANZ) on

legalising hemp foods, pursuant to

section 61 of the Food Standards

Australia New Zealand Act 1991

(FSANZ Act), the deadline for which is

25 August at 6pm (Canberra time). We

are now beginning to understand that

we have lost our sovereignty regarding

foods and food supplements under this

Act, and none of us even knew it had

even been passed! Australians’ access

to health supplements are far more

restrictive than those for NZers, so this

bill that is currently before Parliament

will be to bring us in line with

Australia under this Act. It is

imperative that we make Dr Jonathan

Coleman understand that we demand

we regain our sovereignty over foods

and health supplements.

We have received notification that

there is evidence of abuse of Gold

Cards, people copying cards and the

same card being used by many

different people, who did not qualify

for the card. We are concerned that this

could jeopardise our access if not dealt

with now.

The long awaited upgrade to the

Matakohe Bridge is now underway.

Tenders have been sent out and NZTA

are having a series of Public Meetings.

Look out for the dates in the local

newspapers.

There is to be a meeting in Whangarei

in September, organised by a group

CommunityCan, to discuss the re-

legalisation of cannabis at a community

level. There will be guest speakers

organised to give justification for their

viewpoints. If our monthly meetings

are anything to go by, there should be

stimulating discussions. We have not

got the final details, but please phone

either Kath or Beverley if you wish to

attend, want the details or need a ride.

It is only by numbers that we will

achieve any changes.

The Rt Hon Winston Peters has agreed

to attend our 28 September meeting at

1.00 p.m., to receive our Petition to Re-

legalise Cannabis for Health Benefits.

Members are asked to make every

endeavour to attend this meeting.

Community members are also welcome

to attend, as his presentations are

always stimulating and interesting, but

please phone if you intend to come so

we may ensure sufficient seating. Also,

if there is a change in plan, we may

phone and let you know.

New members are always welcome,

please contact either Beverley on 09

431 9188 or Kath on 09 283 2052.

PETER WETHEY - KDC

OTAMATEA WARD

Standing for Otamatea

Semi-retired Mangawhai resident, Peter Wethey, is standing

for the Otamatea Ward in the upcoming Local Body

Elections in October under the tag line “A Fresh Start for

Kaipara”.

Peter emphasizes the importance of building on the

turnaround in Council performance achieved in recent

years. He believes the Council must be focused on the

future of Kaipara, not the past. The elected Councilors must

provide strong governance and clear guidance to the

Council Executive with a focus on maximizing Kaipara’s

potential.

Peter hopes that the elections will deliver a strong Council

of forward looking councilors with the ability to consider

district wide issues without being ambushed by conflicts of

interest or pet project agendas. “I stand for transparency and

accountability;

consultation,

collaboration

and

communication,” said Mr Wethey.

Having spent most of his working life in the corporate

world, and holding a number of senior executive positions

in the pulp and paper and meat industries, Peter has

experience and understanding of governance and its

boundaries as well as strong financial literacy skills.

Mr Wethey said, “There is no “one size fits all” for the

Kaipara district. We have areas of high growth to areas of

no growth and spread through the district are a number of

business activities and a range of farming activities. With

all of the issues created from these sectors facing Council,

infrastructure will be a key consideration for many

communities within Kaipara. I support planned

development and infrastructure,

underpinned

responsible

financial policies. I also have a keen

interest

responsible

environmental matters.”

In recent times, Peter has voluntarily

given his time and experience (with

a degree in chemistry), to assist the

Kaipara DC with water quality trials

in Mangawhai Harbour.

Peter is committed to representing

the interests of the Otamatea Ward

while advancing those of the wider

Kaipara community.

Kaiwaka Bugle - 23 August 2016

Page 17

Kia

Ora Introducing ADRIAN BONNER

Standing as an Independent candidate for the Otamatea

Ward of the Kaipara District Council (KDC).

Born in Wellington in 1958, studied at Victoria

University and began teaching at Sacred Heart College,

Auckland in 1978. In 1987 while visiting my brothers

farm, I had the opportunity to see honeybees in action.

Moving to Kaiwaka in 1988, I began a beekeeping

business, supplying honey to customers around the North

Island and overseas.

From 1991-97 I was secretary of the Kaiwaka Residents

& Ratepayers Association and was pleased to persuade

then Mayor Peter Brown to establish the 0800 Help Desk

for the Kaipara District.

I first stood for the KDC in 1992, age 34, with the slogan

"Doing things better," and subsequently Northpower,

Northland Regional Council and the Parliamentary by-

election last year.

"Among many issues, this election is about the roads,

water quality, sewage, the Harbours, the mangroves, the

railway, the elderly, the young and our future."

1. CONSULTATION: During the 1990's till the early

2000's consultation barely existed in Otamatea. From this

October a culture of consultation needs to be embedded

in the Council by accessibility, transparency and

accountability.

2. CIVIL DEFENCE: I believe the Otamatea Ward is

poorly prepared for a civil emergency. Safe assembly

points and properly trained evacuation procedures are

needed to deal with situations as diverse as toxic spills on

our highways to tsunami events and flooding.

3. ROAD MAINTENANCE: To begin with, Otamatea

roads need to be graded PROPERLY. I would like to see

us have a leased grader and a professional driver hired as

the Far North Council has done, and the metal put ON the

middle of the road NOT swept to the side, as is the case

now.

4. ROAD-MATS: I propose that we investigate using

road-mat technology on the worst of our metal roads.

Road-mats have many advantages such as stabilising the

base coarse of existing muddy roads over winter, to

reducing dust and carcinogens in that dust over summer.

5. SEWAGE & WETLANDS: An aerated effluent pond

with filtration, which is then flushed into the Kaiwaka

River on the high tide each day is NOT a wastewater

treatment scheme. This applies to other towns in the

Otamatea and costs a significant part of the $5.7million

spent each year to "maintain". Wetland wastewater

treatments are now used around the world, at a tenth of

the cost of current systems.

6. CLEAN WATER FOR KAIWAKA: The present

situation has spring water being piped from Kaiwaka to

Maungaturoto. I fail to see why Kaiwaka should not be

enjoying the same quality of water. Also, I propose that a

160,000 litre (40,000 gallon) tank be built to feed water

to the township and provide a water supply for civil

emergencies and to fight forest fires.

7. RATES: In regard to the burden of increased rates, the

government had a "duty of care" toward the people of

Kaipara through its agent, the Audit Office. In

compensation to equal the loss incurred and neglect of

this Agency, the government should pay a further $10

million OR allow the KDC under the amended Local

Government (2002) Act to hold a one-off Lottery up to

$30 million.

8. ELDERLY RESIDENTS & RATEPAYERS: I would

like to see a purpose built retirement facility in Otamatea.

Elderly homeowners who wish to remain in their homes,

but increasingly cannot afford the high rates demanded,

especially in Mangawhai, should be able to defer a

portion or all of their rates till they pass away or retire to

the new facility. Their houses would then revert to the

Council providing a housing pool to rent which would, in

part, finance the retirement facility.

9. RAILWAY PASSENGERS: It is doubtful that truck

cargoes will be shifting to rail any time soon. I suggest

we turn our attention to passenger rail transport in the

form of small carriages, about the size of a bendy-bus,

with the capacity to be electrified at a later date. These

small carriages would be parked one-by-one, at various

towns along the rail route going North (in the morning) to

create mobile/stationary "stations". Passengers would

climb aboard, pay automatically and their carriage would

be picked up by the engine and other carriages returning

South (in the afternoon). Security would be ensured by

remote cameras for all mobile/stationary carriages. This

system would also save on fuel costs.

10. ONE-STOP SHOP FOR COUNCIL CONSENTS:

One complaint often made by farmers developing their

land (putting in a road for example) is the number of

Council staff involved in gaining approval. Two Council

staff, in the field to approve and issue consents would

simplify the process and reduce costs.

11. KAIPARA'S YOUNG PEOPLE: Council has a

responsibility to future ratepayers in the District's schools

by supporting extra-mural projects such as aviation and

sailing academies. Also by providing opportunities to

School-leavers seeking apprenticeships with local

businesses in the form of student loans of 5%.

12. KAIPARA GREEN BELT & HERITAGE

DISTRICT: As Auckland sprawls northwards it would be

wise to establish a "green-belt" similar to that which

exists around London. Also many people would like to

see Kaipara declared a Heritage District with guidelines

as to what kind of urban and rural development is best.

Please Note: Proposals 3, 5, 6, 10 & 12 will require no

further cost to the ratepayer as resources allocated to

these activities already would be used more effectively.

Finally, while many ratepayers would wish that the

$82,000 application for funds by the Mangawhai

Museum be spent on exhibits etc, I would support a one-

off ex gratia payment on the grounds that employing an

enterprising CEO would generate his/her salary in the

first year, and then some.

Victor Person: Not Killed But Returned to Australia

Our Kaiwaka War Memorial Hall Honours’

Board for WWI shows V Person as having

died during the war, but on research Jennie and

I have not been able to find any such record.

We were unable to find out much about Victor

except that Victor Albert Person was enrolled

at Kaiwaka School on 26 August 1899 by a

Mrs Collins, with no leaving date. His last

school was Gisborne.

(Ref. Kaiwaka School

Admission Records)

We have a Kaiwaka School

photograph of Victor in 1902 - second from

the right in the back row

(see page 13 Kaiwaka

Photographic History)

During a new search just a week before the

unveiling of the hall front doors we found that

Victor had joined the Australian Army and

returned to Australia!

We also found his parents Johan (born in

Sweden 1846, a fisherman, died age 66 in

1912 in Gisborne) and Marie (nee Hanson

born in 1852 Denmark and died 1930 in

Auckland). Johan and Marie are recorded as

having 6 children:

1884 Johan Frederick, 1886

Anna Louise (married 1914 Frank Streate), 1888

Elvina Johanna (married 1913

William Alexander Gudsell), 1890

Albert Victor, 1892 Charles Edward,

1896 Henry Stanley.

From our research Victor joined

the NZ Army then went to

Australia

and

joined

the

Australian Imperial Army on 21

January 1915 as a Private in the

Battalion, 3

Reinforcement,

where he was listed as being born

in Gisborne, Presbyterian and a

carpenter. He was single and

listed his mother Mrs M Pearson,

13 Leamington Road, Mount Eden, Auckland as next of kin. (As often happened

names were not always spelt the same!)

Victor left Sydney, Australia on 11

February 1915 on

board HMAT A49 Seang Choon, and served in Egypt,

Gallipoli and the Western Front, and returned to Australia

on 14

December 1918.

He married, in Australia, in 1919 and spent the rest of life in

Australia until he died 1969.

Victor’s brother, Henry Stanley Person, also joined the

army, stating his mother Mrs. Marie Person, of

"Brightelstone," Kohimarama, Auckland as next of kin. He

was a Rifleman, Serial No. 23/557, in the New Zealand

Rifle Brigade. Sadly, Henry died of meningitis while

training in Auckland, on the 7 December 1915 age just 19

years old. He is buried at the Purewa Cemetery and

Crematorium, Meadowbank, Auckland, New Zealand,

Block F, Row 45, Grave 135. ~Lindsey
