Kaiwaka Bugle - 6 September 2016

OTAMATEA HAWKS UNDER 16 RUGBY 2016
Just last week a very large tree crashed over the roadway at
the Kaiwaka rest area - McClean Park. In view of the size of
the tree, photo below looking north, it is very lucky no-one
was ‘resting’ there at the time it fell.
There are a large
number
of
the
poplars on the side
of State Highway
One and the rest
area
that
are
rotting,
splitting
and being held up
by other trees. Who
is responsible for
the
maintenance
and safety around these trees? From information gathered
the rest area is currently owned by NZTA, Doc and KDC
(New Zealand Transport Agency, Department of
Conservation, Kaipara District Council. But with trees on
the side of State Highway One they will need the correct
safety procedures to be dealt with.
The latest large tree that fell was expertly dealt with by
Steve Hare. Steve is a professional
silviculturist
of more
than 35 years. He says the dead trees leaning on others at
the rest area “are accidents waiting to happen. Some may
fall on the highway or into the rest area. These need to be
cleared away by professional tree managers.” Steve has an
idea for a fresh new planting plan to beautify the Park.
The one who knows the most about McClean Park is our
Elizabeth Preston. 80-year-old Elizabeth is at the rest area
nearly every day checking and clearing the rubbish – she
truly cares for this rest area, which is the first real pull-off
picnic area when travelling north out of Auckland.
Elizabeth knows the regulars that stop by and goes quietly
around when the drivers are having a kip. She also knows
the ‘ratbags’ and gets very upset when they steal the flowers
she plants – “to give the place a bit of colour!”. She is not
happy with those who “do wheelies at night!” either.
Elizabeth was very grateful for Steve’s assistance with the
fallen tree. She deals with the poplar ‘suckers’, but these
bigger trees are beyond her control. She doesn’t want to see
a wall of trees and shrubbery that will create a ‘hiding
place’ and making it less safe for people to stop and relax.
Elizabeth would dearly love some help with keeping this
Kaiwaka rest area a beautiful spot to stop. Thank you,
Elizabeth!
Our district council has proposed signage and is willing to
explore a management plan for McClean Park. But how
long do we wait for dangerous trees to be safely removed?

“I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.”
~William Wordsworth
Welcome to spring and it has been
beautiful with those fine sunny days. The
earth takes on a new look (well our side of
the earth does). As they say take time to
smell the flowers.
Yes we had a wet August although not as
bad as some. Most of the month was
relatively calm and not too much wind.
Those sunny days we had during the month
were great to charge your personal batteries
if you were fortunate enough to do so.
The first half of the month poured it down
and then a bit more later on in the month.
Recording for 2016 14 days of rain and in
2015 16 days of rain.
We recorded for August 2016 226mm rain
and for 2015 was 131mm.
First 8 months of 2016 was 1076mm and in
2015 it was 1132.
Our driest August since 1987 was 2001
with 54mm and the wettest was 1989 with
318mm Our driest first 8 months of any
year since 1987 was 1994 with 612mm and
the wettest was 1987 with 1373mm. I
believe there would have been bigger
tallies around than ours.
Look after each other.

Pine pollen not to blame
for hay fever
This time of the year
pine pollen becomes a
visible cover over puddles and ponds
and commentators habitually blame
pine trees for causing hay fever.
However, pine pollen only affects a
very small proportion of people with
allergies.
According
to
forest
research
organisation Scion Principal Scientist
Dr Tim Payn this is due to its relatively
large size and waxy coating and so it is
far less reactive up people’s noses than
grass pollen.
“The science shows that pine pollen is
unlikely to cause a reaction in people
because of that layer between the
pollen and the sinuses of the people
who breath it in,” Dr Payn says.
“The wax inhibits protein leaking out
and causing an allergic reaction as well
as it having not much protein in the
pollen in the first place. Much smaller
grass pollen, in contrast, is much more
likely to penetrate deeper into the
respiratory system and cause a
reaction.”
Dr Payn says it is not impossible for
people to react to Pinus radiata pollen,
especially as a pollen cross-reaction
where the body’s immune system
generalises an allergic reaction. But he
says most cases of hay fever are either
from grass pollen or some other tree
species such as silver birch.
He also says people shouldn’t be
concerned about seeing pine pollen on
ponds and lakes and its potential to add
nitrogen into the water.
“It mightn’t look good, but the pollen
soon breaks down harmlessly and has
minimal
impact on the environment.”

DAFFODIL DAY
A big ‘Thank You’ to
everyone
who
gave
so
generously to this year’s
Daffodil Day Appeal.
A total of $1275 was raised.
Thanks also to Jaques Four
Square, La Nonna Bakery,
Shamrock Service Station, the
Coffee Pot Cafe and the
collectors and helpers for their
continued support.
Well done everyone!

BLACK WILLOWS
Have you seen that our willow trees
now have unsightly black trunks and
branches?
The black soot is the result of the giant
willow aphid - first detected in 2013.
The aphids suck the sap of willow trees
and as they feed they secrete
honeydew, which attracts a number of
insects, including wasps. The stems and
ground under the willow trees blacken,
as the sooty mould grows on the energy
-rich honeydew.
Ladybirds and a few native birds have
been making the most of the new food
resource.
See poplarandwillow.org.nz
for further information.

ran to an outstanding standard.
“I would particularly like to recognise
Morgan Jansen, who came 1st in the 8
year old girls race and Leonie Beyer,
who came 4th in the 10/11 year old
girls race.
“Special thanks also goes to Justin

~Sharlene Tornquist
Public Health
There appears to be an increase in
students
away
with
‘stomach
bugs’ (vomiting and diarrhoea) in
schools currently.
A few points to remember :
Please keep your child at home from
school for a further two days (48 Hours)
once they are no longer sick, (after the
last vomit or episode of diarrhoea).
Remember to keep hydrated should you
become sick, by increasing fluids.
Should symptoms persist or become
worse please take your child to the
Doctor.
Washing hands with soap and warm
water and drying are essential to prevent
further spread of stomach bugs.
Should someone you know have a
stomach bug : stay away if possible.
Many thanks and stay well.

Save-a-Life keyring
If you have one of these keyrings, you
could save a life!
The Save-a-Life keyring has a capsule
which contains a soluble aspirin.
Chewed or placed under the tongue, an
aspirin can make all the difference
when someone is experiencing signs of
a heart attack. The aspirin potentially
helps keep a patient alive for what
paramedics call “The Golden Hour”.
This is the time between when the

KSA Helipad
Many thanks to Atlas
Quarries who have
offered to donate
some of the concrete
and aggregate needed
for
the
Rescue
Helicopter's helipad.
We really appreciate their support!
The helipad will cost a bit more than
we originally thought - this is mainly
because the helipad needs to withstand
the very heavy load of the helicopter
and will need extra thick concrete with
strong reinforcing. The Northland
Emergency
Services
Trust
recommended that we extend the
concreting into the carpark (for smooth
patient transfer from the ambulance)
and that we also have a floodlight
directed onto the area. And the site will
need extensive drainage.
If you have been thinking about
donating towards this community
project, it's not too late, and all
donations (big or small) would be
gratefully received. You can donate
online into the Kaiwaka Sports
Association's
bank
account
06 0365 0022472 00 (please use
reference Rescue Helicopter). Or you
could drop money off in an envelope at
Jaques Four Square, there is a box
behind the checkout for Sports
Association money (please write
Rescue Helicopter on the envelope).
KSA Meeting
There will be a Kaiwaka Sports
Association meeting this Thursday at
7pm, at the Sports Complex. All
welcome.
Thank you to Pub Charity
Recently I applied to Pub Charity for a
grant to purchase asymmetrical bars for
our gymnastics club, and $7,500 was
approved! Many thanks to Pub Charity
for supporting our young gymnasts.
Fright Night
Our annual Fright
Night is next month.
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. ~Cheryl Anderson

Reporoa College Sports Exchange
2016
This year’s exchange had a completely
different feel as Reporoa students were
billeted at Otamatea High School, and
Otamatea parents provided the evening
meal. The change from the traditional
billeting arrangements were due to the
new
Vulnerable
Children’s
Act
affecting schools. Still, both schools
showed the true spirit of this long-
lasting school rivalry.
The hockey was played on the new turf
at Warkworth. The Otamatea girls won,
7-0, with goals scored by Monica
Jaques (3), Annmarie Holst (2),
Hayley Linton and Bridgette Holst.
On the Sunday evening both the girls
and boys basketball teams played. The
girls, with only two games behind
them, played well but suffered a loss.
The OHS boys team, coached by
Danyon Tana, had an excellent all-
round team game and came home with
a win, 64-33.
Monday morning’s assembly was
followed by the student’s debate -
‘Should teenagers have a stronger
voice in society’. Reporoa won by
arguing that teenagers do not need a
stronger voice.
There was an overall win for OHS in
squash - both Lee Holst and Brody
Shadbolt showing dominance.
Otamatea dominated in the First XI
football game with a 6-3 win. Goals
from Flannagan (2), Josh Nishitana (2),
M Damsted and Tyler Flanagan.
Excellent goal shooting from Shuntel
Rika and Jayme Curtis along with great
teamwork gave a win to the OHS
netballers, 55-24.
Rhys Shadbolt led a strong and
confident OHS Sevens rugby team to a
55-15 win.
Well done to the Otamatea High
School students.

KAIWAKA CAN
NEW CAMERA, NEW TREES AND NEW ARTWORK
Traffic Speed
Things are starting to happen along the highway for
Kaiwaka. As announced earlier, we are waiting for the
installation of a speed camera and also a flashing speed
sign. These will make a big difference to the traffic
concerns experienced through Kaiwaka.
Also coming up are safe pedestrian refuges to enable people
to cross the road more easily, something very much needed
as people risk life and limb so often getting across the
highway. Two of these are planned in the near future.
One of the solutions to help with speed was ‘traffic
calming’, something that sounds very vague but in fact has
proved to make a difference to the way traffic acts in a built
up area. To this end there is a street tree planting
programme being finalised by Council in conjunction with
Kaiwaka Can and some local landowners. This will work to
narrow the road and therefore help slow traffic down and
make our town more beautiful.
Thursday Morning Working Bee
One ugly part of Kaiwaka has been the pipework for the
sewerage system down below Eutopia. Council has made
funds available for beautifying this and Marijke and Robert,
owners of Eutopia, are overseeing the artwork being
installed to cover it. Working bees are Thursday mornings –
see the note about it elsewhere in the Bugle.
We need your help with other volunteers too. The Drop In
Centre is very short of staff at present. Anyone who could
help with this would be very welcome. Please contact
Janine at the Drop In Centre if you can help or ring me
(number below).
McLean Park
We are also still looking for the right people to form an
action group planning a future for what is known as
‘McLean Park’, the rest area below the motel and the
township. Elizabeth Preston does a great job of keeping it
tidy but we would like to see it potentially developed to
maximise the location and river environment. Let me know
(Derek on 09 946 9077 ) if you are interested in this.
Great to see spring here as we look forward to these
changes to our Kaiwaka landscape

SOUTHERN ZONE FINAL OF THE
ANNUAL ROTARY CLUB OF WHANGAREI
SPEECH CONTEST
Three finalists from secondary schools in the lower north
gave speeches at the Maungaturoto and Districts Rotary
Club dinner meeting on Tuesday 30th August. The winner
will go forward to compete with other Northland schools in
Whangarei.
1st Blake Sims, Otamatea High School – Male Suicide - the
Silent Epidemic, 2nd Heath Kewnne, Bream Bay College –
Civics, 3rd Emma Rankin, Otamatea High School – Does
Social Media Control Us.
Marks are given for subject matter, introduction, points and
flow of the speech, topic, conclusion, delivery, style,
technique and content. They were also judged on a 1 minute
30 second – 2 minute impromptu speech.
Adjudicators Beth Dalebrook, Bruce Nelder and Natalie
Epsom said that the speeches were of an extremely high
standard and that all finalists were to be congratulated.
The Rotary Club of Whangarei started this speech
competition in 1961 when the late Huge Rishworth, a past
president of the Whangarei Rotary Club donated a cup as a
prize for the winner of the speech contest. The annual
event has now become a prestigious event and a challenge
for senior students throughout Northland. The specific aim
of the contest is to promote the art of public speaking
amongst young people and to encourage all Northland
secondary schools to do likewise.

good for the soul!
Novices and green fingers are being
called upon to get into their gardens,
volunteer for a local replanting
programme, join a gardening club, help
out in a community garden or have fun
with children and grandchildren in the
garden.
To kick off National Gardening Week,
Yates is giving a free packet of seeds
to
everyone
who
registers
online
at
www.yates.co.nz/nationalgardeningweek
10 things to do during National
Gardening Week:

the Spring growth spurt
3. Volunteer for a local replanting
programme
4. Join your local garden club
5. Visit your Botanical Gardens

your eyes and breathe
deeply!

Previous recipients have been Briar Lomas, Charlene
Kahotea-Smith, Hayley Aldworth and Aimee Stevens from
Rodney College and Leila Stephens and Latina Te Awa,

These awards are made possible by the generosity of the
local community and this year our Midwinter Ball and
Auction raised enough funds to support this award and our
Second Chance Scholarship which benefits women who are
studying to return to the workforce.
