Fifty years ago today, 7 February 1967,

the first session of the Kaiwaka

Playcentre was held in the original

Kaiwaka Sports pavilion where the

gym now sits - pictured below.

The first committee - Joy Sceats

president, Vivienne Linnell secretary,

Enid McClean treasurer, Gayle Brown

roster mother, Vera Hall equipment

officer and other interested parents -

made arrangements to rent the Domain

pavilion for their Play Centre sessions.

This was made possible by a wonderful

response from the members of the

community, and some quick money-

raising in order to buy the necessary

equipment. With a roll of up to 28

children two days a week, the Centre

soon began to look for a permanent

home.

By September that year they were able

to purchase the Vallana Knitwear

factory in Hastie Lane. The building

has since increased in size and has

become spacious and welcoming, but

is still in the same position.

There are many wonderful memories

from the former pre-schoolers - some

now 54! And from the supervisors and

parents - the time Peter Wilkinson MP

opened the new outdoor playground

equipment, the fantastic Balls held in

the Kaiwaka War Memorial Hall

during the 70s, the dads remember

working on the building extensions and

the tremendous fellowship that was

built up. The mothers worked through

POINT

CURTIS

CRUISING

CLUB

From the Rodney and Otamatea Times,

Waitemata and Kaipara Gazette 14

February 1917:

“THE RECORD FLOOD.

FURTHER PARTICULARS.

PAKIRI. The flood did a good deal of damage at

Pakiri, of the same kind as reported in other

districts. Mr T. Hoult had 50 sheep washed out

to sea.

KAIWAKA. Residents of this part of the

district hope that there will not be any more big

floods for at least half a century. Considerable

loss and inconvenience have been caused. The

sweeping away of the Topuni bridge is much

felt.

WARKWORTH. As showing the quantity of

water about Warkworth, … The clearing and

repair of the Kaipara line may take another

week.

We have heard that Mr C. Walker lost a

valuable young stallion, … Eight bridges were

destroyed in Otamatea County, and slips and

washouts were numerous. The Minister for

Works has been requested to send an officer to

inspect the general damage, with a view to

special assistance.”

It is sad to read of the loss of lives

further north in these disastrous floods

reported in the Waikato Times 6th

February 1917 where two Kaihu

children and a Towai settler were

drowned in the rushing flood waters.

LIBRARY

Free Wi-Fi

Many thanks to Kaipara District

Council, and especially to Lisa Salter,

the Libraries Manager, for arranging

our free Wi-Fi service. You can now

come to the library - or sit outside in

the comfort your vehicle - and use this

internet connection with your own

devices. At this stage we will leave it

running day and night, subject to

review a bit further down the line.

Book swaps

Don’t panic, there isn’t a swap due for

a while, but the Northland Libraries

Network swap - the large print and

audio books - is due in April. Do come

in and take a look at the great range of

titles on these shelves before it’s too

late.

Mune: an autobiography by Ian

Mune

"Ian Mune is an institution in the world

of New Zealand theatre, television and

film. Known to generations of New

Zealanders, he has been a central figure

of the stage and screen in this country

since the mid-1960s...

"This beautifully written autobiography

is deeply insightful about the personal

process, the challenges and the rewards

of the acting and directing life. But Ian

Mune's story also has a much wider

significance, as it provides a unique

insider's view of the roots and

development of contemporary theatre,

and the modern television and film

industry in New Zealand." (inside front

cover)

Couldn't have said it better myself. I

really enjoyed this book, and have no

hesitation in recommending it. Not

only does it tell his story, but for me it

brought back memories of films and

programs I'd seen over the years that he

was involved with, adding to the

background of it all.

This book is on the Rental Non-Fiction

shelves in the library until 1 July 2017,

when it will move to the free shelves.

791 MUN

Welcome to February 2017

all you weather readers. Wishing you

all a happy new year, and hope it goes

well for you. 11 months to go before

another year turns over.

What does one say about January

weather? Wind-wind-wind. No wonder

our country is now officially in drought

mode. At least the holidays have been

free of rain and no one up this way got

rained out, although a few tents were

ripped with the wind.

It is very sad to think that some people

have to steal water out of other folks

tanks. Do they not have a conscious

and think that the other person does not

need the water and has the resources to

fill their tanks up again at your

expense? – sad. Especially when it

comes to stealing the water from our

local volunteer services who go out of

their way to save life and limb.

We welcomed the 24mm of rain we got

at our house on 21

-22

January. You

may have had more than us in some

places.

As in January 2016, our weather this

January was cloudy and windy. The

wind was rather cold at times, keeping

the temperature down, warming up

near the end of the month when the

winds slowly died away a bit. The

garden has not produced the fruit this

year due to lack of the bees not

pollinating during the rainy days. The

vege garden is not bad though,

although catching household water to

keep it going takes time.

Ok, at our house for January 2017 we

had 27mm rain and for 2016 we had

139mm. We had rain on 2 days this

year and last year we rain on 10 days.

Our driest January since 1987 was

2013 with 10mm and the wettest was

1989 with 343mm.

Remembering Valentines Day on the

February: “Working in a lawn-

mower-parts warehouse and not having

much time to buy a Valentine’s Day

card for his wife, he was looking

through the mower magazines in the

office and got an idea, using scissors

and glue he created a card with pictures

of mowers and flowers on to which he

wrote, “I lawn for you mower and

mower”. The card now graces the

refrigerator as the wife loved it so

much”.

Remember to put water out for your

pets and flower and fauna of our little

paradise. By saving the washing water

and hand basin water to use outside in

the garden or where it is needed - it is

amazing how much you save, and by

not flushing every time if possible you

will save a heap. A bucket in the

shower catches and overflows and is

good for plants as well. Being from a

large family it was necessary to save

water, and we did.

~Well, take care out there. Bev.

covered skin, e.g. longer sleeves and

shorts.

with your child so they can reapply it

at lunchtime.

Swimming and the Pool

We swim every day, so everyone needs

their togs and towel please.

education courses that gave a greater

understanding of their children’s

development.

A keynote to the success of our local

playcentre is the co-operation of all the

families involved over all these years.

A memory from Cheryl Anderson on

her

involvement

Kaiwaka

Playcentre: ‘I really enjoyed my time at

Playcentre - I always thought that

Playcentre was a positive place, as

much for the mums as it was for the

kids, giving mums some time out and a

chance to meet other mums and relax

and find support by sharing stories. I

guess my main memories of Playcentre

are the field trips that we did - we took

the kiddies to places like Rangitoto

Island, Serendipity Farmpark, Kelly

Tarlton’s, Tiritiri Island, Auckland

Zoo, etc.

‘I was wondering how many years

Playcentre has been around for

one of

our bike days 2003 - not sure how I

managed to get the photo below, as I

didn't have a digital camera back then. I

do remember that over the 8 years that

I was there, we took photos quite

regularly and kept them in albums -

maybe those albums are still in the

centre?’ Cheryl organised the 40 year

Playcentre reunion in 2007.

And a memory from Jennie Reynolds:

‘Playcentre was a great place for mums

and some dads to come and have fun

with their children. It was great to have

the dads come and help with making

trucks and doing dad-things and

it made a difference to the 4-year-old

sessions that I was supervisor for

during the late 1980-1990s, now those

children have their children attending

Playcentre.

Building the new building was a great

experience.

meant

lots

fundraising, picking kumara crate-after

-crate, then picking the colours of the

building - this caused a lot of

discussion, but I think we got it right!’

Top of the Rock

It's a mountain of a climb, but the view

from the top is worth the trek!

Our Top of the Rock event is your

opportunity to climb iconic Baldrock

Mountain (and can you really call

yourself a local if you've never

climbed it!) You get a spectacular view

of Pukekaroro Mountain and you can

see down into the Kaipara and across

towards Mangawhai and Kaiwaka. The

mountain has a well-formed track

which spirals around the mountain, so

it's not as steep to climb as it may look

from the road.

It's easy to enter: download an entry

form from www.kaiwakasports.co.nz,

then either email it to me, or drop it off

at Jaques Four Square.

There are NO ENTRIES ON THE

DAY. Your last chance to r egister is

this Friday, 10 February - I'll be at the

Sports Complex taking registrations

from 6.30 – 8pm.

If you don't want to enter, you're still

welcome to come along to the Sports

Complex to cheer on the participants

as they arrive at the finish line. There'll

be live music, bouncy castles, food

stalls, kids activities and the swimming

pool will be open. Bring the whole

family along for a fun, community

morning.

HEED THE

WARNINGS

In the official magazine of the

naval Institute, Frank Koch

reported on a very unusual

encounter at sea. A battleship was

coming in for manoeuvres in heavy

weather. Shortly after the sun went

down, the lookout reported a light in

the distance, so the captain had the

signal man send a message: “We’re on

a collision course. Advise you change

your course 20 degrees.”

Minutes later a signal came back:

“Advisable you change your course.”

The captain angrily ordered that

another signal be sent: “I am the

captain.

Change

course

twenty

degrees.”

Again came the reply: “I’m a seaman,

second class. You’d better change your

course.”

Furious by this point, the captain

barked a final threat: “I’m a battleship!

Change your course!”

The signal came back: “I’m a

lighthouse.”

The captain changed his course.

It is foolhardy to ignore the beacons

that warn you of danger. They take

various forms; symptoms of health

problems, excessive debt, stress that

ties you in knots - the list goes on. It

matters not whether you are successful,

influential, and busy. When you are

sent a warning that tells you to change

course, be wise, don’t argue. Instead

you will do it with haste.

Proverbs 29:1 If you get more stubborn

every time you are corrected, one day

you will be crushed and never recover.

~ from Word for Today, Radio Rhema.
