Lots of things are ready to happen in Kaiwaka as reported at

Kaiwaka Can last Monday at their monthly meeting. The

frustration is that we want to see more completed more

quickly. But that is the reality of a very small town working

with a very small council and a very large NZTA.

Changes to State Highway One

The change of speed zone to 60kph throughout is still

waiting on final Wellington approval. Along with the speed

zone there will be two pedestrian safety zones go in, a new

footpath from the Bakery shops down towards Oneriri Road

and tree planting from Three Furlongs up towards the

Suzuki shop. There will also be extensive road markings,

another Your Speed Is sign and a change of the 100k

boundary sign a few metres northward.

Also with NZTA at the moment are the designs for the

gateway sculptures that will welcome people to Kaiwaka,

an ambitious and exciting project but again subject to

NZTA regulations.

What about the other roads round the district?

There was a good attendance at a meeting set up by Council

to talk about the Council roading policies and budgets. The

short story is we have a very high proportion of unsealed

roads in various states of repair or disrepair and a budget

not able to meet all the needs all at once. We need to realise

how small the rating

base is in Kaipara that makes an instant fix impossible.

However two members of Kaiwaka Can did a road trip with

three Council members to look at problem roads in the

district. It was a helpful exercise but the clear consensus

was that Gibbons Road at present is in the worst condition.

We are setting up a system for every road with problems to

have someone monitor the state of the road every three

months and Kaiwaka Can will summarise this and send it in

to Council so they have a constant supply of data about our

roads.

The playground is up and swinging...

Great news and it looks so good with all the new

equipment. We are delighted at the use it is getting already.

The playground fence is going to be built by Northtec when

the weather is less liquid. All the plans and materials are

ready and we look forward to this long planned addition.

Giving the bridge to nowhere a new home

You have probably heard there is a former motorway

footbridge lying unused in a paddock near Matakohe. We

have been exploring ways we might obtain this and use it to

make our foot links better across either one or two of our

bridges. It is a major project and we are starting by asking

for engineering advice from Council. But we had a great

discussion on how foot bridges might open up and link up a

series of walkways round much of Kaiwaka to make our

little town very foot friendly. We will keep you in touch

with developments and probably have a public meeting

some time to share creative ideas for the long term.

A business expo...

Thanks so much to Beth Stone for all the work put into a

local business expo on July 8

. We hope this is only the

first of these which will give local businesses of all sorts a

profile in the community.

A new home for Kaiwaka Cares

The Heart or Ngakau, formerly The Ark, opened this past

Saturday. It is a great venture to provide social space and

services in Kaiwaka. Kaiwaka Cares will be a key tenant

but many other groups will be using it in the future.

The Little Town of Lights

The Venturer Scouts are planning a major

jamboree in Kaiwaka, called “Illumination”,

based partly on our reputation as the little

town of lights, something that embarrasses

us a bit as so many lights have gone out. A

few more are appearing again (on the

Anglican Church, round Eutopia...) but we

would love to see us back into our full glory

again. If you have any interest in lights for

your group, business or home, get in touch

with Kaiwaka Can and we will pass it on to

Lars our lighting specialist.

Lots more happening but this is an article,

not a book. We are delighted with support

for Kaiwaka Can, now going towards three

years. It is an open membership, public

welcome group and we encourage anyone

interested or with ideas or problems about

town to join us. We meet third Monday each

month, Archie Bull Hall (behind the

Anglican Church) 5.30pm. You can contact the chair for any more information.

Thank you to Noel

Leeming and Hewlett

Packard for our awesome

most unexpected trip to

Bermuda to watch the

last

week

the

America’s Cup Racing.

The highlight of course

was that we brought

“The Auld Mug” home.

Sadly we did not get to

the celebrations as you

needed tickets to get in

to the Village and

Grandstand and both

were sold out.

Our accommodation was

staying on a 45-foot luxury catamaran.

Apart from watching the races and

practice runs, we did some yachting

and motoring around the bays. We

travelled around the Great Sound and

into little bays and 18 miles up the

southern coast to St. Georges, the

original capital city of Bermuda;

Bermuda’s capital city is now

Hamilton.

We had cloudy weather the first day,

then beautiful sunny days and rain also.

The water was a beautiful aqua blue

colour and very, very salty tasting, as

they do not get the incoming and

outgoing tide very much. The

temperatures were in the mid 30s.

Bermuda is made up of little islands

and some are joined together with

bridges. It has tropical growth and all

the house roofs are white so as to keep

them cool. Also, building material is so

expensive to import as it with all other

items and produce etc that they make

their roof out of limestone and cement

tiles, as once upon a time they were cut

from limestone into slates. The houses

are painted pinks, blues, green, aqua,

yellow, mauve etc.

We were supplied with breakfast and

lunch, and taken ashore for our evening

dinner at our own expense, travelling in

a RIB (rubber inflatable boat) - like a

dinghy - and sometimes a larger RIB,

and picked from the jetty later. The

RIB does trips to all the catamarans

that needed it and picks us up every

hour on the hour.

The locals are a friendly lot and very

helpful. The roads are two way only

but seem narrower than that with palm

trees and lush foliage growing right up

to the edges of the road in some places.

The racing was great to watch. We had

to anchor where we were told on the

outer edge of the boundary line. We

shared

our

catamaran

with

Australians, 4 Americans and the crew

of two were all against us. What a

sweet defeat. It even had the

Americans in tears.

My name was entered in this

promotion being a Noel Leeming club

member and Hewlett Packard as I own

a H.P. printer. I purchased 2 printer ink

cartridges and did not know anything

about the promotion as I had not seen

any posters about it. After I had been

phoned and told about this win I looked

it up on the computer as I thought it

was may be a hoax (of which I was

assured it was not) and an e-mail and

phone call appeared a couple of hours

later. I was told I had won a $15.000.00

trip to Bermuda for 2 staying on a

luxury catamaran for the final week of

the America’s Cup racing. All transfers

airfares etc paid for etc plus $1500.00

N.Z spending money. This was totally

awesome as Icon Events took care of

absolutely everything for us even to the

taxi to take us back to the airport.

It does still seem a dream and totally

unbelievable. And the “Auld Mug” is

back in New Zealand.

Hope everyone survived the school

holidays. We ran a great program out

of the centre, everyone seemed to

enjoy themselves and we loved having

the kids here. We had kids from

Kaiwaka, Mangawhai, Wellsford and

even some from out of the area. We do

not the run the program to make

money so we only charge what it costs

so hopefully it is accessible to working

parents or just parents with bored kids.

We want to run the program again if it

is wanted and needed. We have

received great feedback from families

so hopefully this will be the case.

We have some new courses next term,

Living on a Budget Course, Adult

Literacy and Learners License Course

and a Teen Life Skills Course,

Business Course, and our Weaving

Class is on every Wednesday from

11am. Please give us a call if you

would like to register. We also have

some possible new classes

coming up and will let you

know when they are

confirmed.

We have our Friday support group at

11am every week - a chance to meet

and discuss your life issues and

challenges and receive support and

tools to alleviate stress and anxiety.

And also we are here for anybody who

feels they need support in areas of their

life whether its financial, emotional,

relationship issues. We offer advocacy

for you with agencies or any agents

you may be dealing with, feel free to

pop in anytime.

And finally don’t forget that we have

our monthly over 65’s lunch here on

the first Monday of the month from

11am-1.30pm, please RSVP so we can

arrange catering.

Have a great fortnight. ~Kirstie & Iris

Winter Christmas celebrations for St

John Kaiwaka and Maungaturoto

ambulance stations

St John Kaiwaka and Maungaturoto

stations enjoyed a pleasant dinner and

social evening at the Three Furlongs

Hotel on Friday 30 June, where some

very special presentations were made.

Vivienne (Viv) Goldsmith and Amilla

Ranken, both from Kaiwaka, were

presented with their National Diploma

by Station Manager Stephen Rosser.

The diploma means they have achieved

Authority to Practice as Emergency

Medical Technicians. This is achieved

after attending in-class training and

spending lots of hours on the road, and

takes approximately two years to

complete.

Viv, who is full-time Principal at

Tauhoa Primary School, says how

much she values the training and

friendship gained through being part of

St John. Viv and her husband have

been in Kaiwaka for three-and-a-half

years and she says it is great to be able

to support her community.

Amilla has been with St John for two-

and-a-half years and has lived in

Kaiwaka with her husband for over six

years. She is a small-town girl and

recognises that many communities like

Kaiwaka, which are seen to be doing

well, can only achieve this with the

support and care of volunteers like

those at St John.

Julia Leaf has been with St John for

three years and gained her National

Diploma in 2016. She is from the

Maungaturoto Station and received her

three-year service award at the event.

Julia is part of a busy family of six, and

she says it is a privilege to help people

in their time of need.

Viv also received her three-year service

award, as did Monique Powell.

Monique achieved her National

Diploma in 2014 and works part-time

at Westmount School in Maungaturoto.

She is also a paid casual staff member

with St John. Helping and interacting

with others is what she enjoys most

about St John, and being able to use the

skills she has learnt.

Rosser says, “Although everybody

leads very busy lives, they all volunteer

their spare time to be on-call for our

community. Congratulations and thank

you, to staff at both the Kaiwaka and

Maungaturoto stations, for your service

to us all. We are so very proud of your

achievements.”

If you are interested in joining our team

as an ambulance officer, please send an

application to https://join.stjohn.org.nz/

home or phone Maungaturoto and

Kaiwaka Station Manager Stephen

Rosser on 021355734.

DOG REGISTRATION

Eighty years ago: In the days when registering your dog you received a dog

collar: “GONE TO AUSTRALIA WITH COUNTY'S DOG TAXES.

DISTRICT CONSTABLE EXTRADITION WANTED.

At a meeting of the Otamatea County Council on Wednesday [27July 1927], the

clerk reported that the district constable, who was the dog tax collector for the

Kaiwaka riding, had sold 158 collars and received £14/9/6, plus his commission.

He (the clerk) had found that the man had left the district suddenly without

paying the amount due to the council. He immediately put the matter in the

hands of Constable Boag, of Maungaturoto, who informed him that the man had

cleared out to Australia. The shopkeepers in Kaiwaka district also had been

"taken down" by means of valueless cheques. The Police Department, the clerk

said, wanted the council to pay the expenses of extraditing the man from

Australia. It would cost about £30.” ~From paperspast.natlib.govt.nz: Auckland

Kaiwaka Bugle - 25 July 2017

Page 13

From Thelma’s Scrapbook …

ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY EIGHT years ago, on

March 31, 1889, the Parisian landmark the Eiffel Tower

was inaugurated after being created for the Universal

Exhibition of 1889 which marked the centenary of the

French Revolution.

The challenge to “study the possibility of erecting an iron

tower on the Champ-de-Mars" was a competition launched

by the "Journal Officiel”, and the winning entry from

structural engineer and architect Gustave Eiffel, engineers

Maurice Koechlin and Emile Nouguier, and architect

Stephen Sauvestre, beat over a hundred other entries.

Gustave Eiffel was born on December 15, 1852,in Dijon,

and began a career in metallurgy after

obtaining a diploma in chemistry from Ecole Centrale in

1855. After gradually moving into design and engineering

in 1867 Eiffel started his own business after being self-

employed as a consultant engineer for a number of years.

Over the following fifteen years, Eiffel was involved in

building a number of bridges and viaducts, and on January

26, 1887, work on the foundations of the Eiffel Tower

began.

This work on the structure's foundations took over five

months to complete, as excavations were carried out using

spades alone and rubble was removed by horse and cart.

Around fifty engineers and designers produced almost 5,300

drawings to illustrate Eiffel's plans, while a hundred

workers built up over 18,000 different parts of the tower in

a workshop. On site, a further 132 men built the tower from

the pre-assembled pieces.

Although the tower was meant to be dismantled after twenty

years, Eiffel knew it could be useful scientifically as a

station for meteorological and astronomical observation as

well as enabling experiments in physics and light and wind

studies.

When the tower was built, the total cost for the building was

7,799,401.31 gold francs and it remained the tallest building

in the world until the Chrysler building in New York topped

its height of 312 metres by just seven metres. The height of

the tower today is 324 metres after the addition of television

antennas to the flagpole at the top.

The total weight of the tower, which is made of iron, is

10,100 tons. Eiffel chose to use iron for the tower as it had

greater resistance to wind and weather than wood or stone,

and the relative lightness of the metal meant that, at their

deepest, foundations only had to be ﬁfteen metres.

ln order to protect the metal from the weather, the entire

structure is painted every seven years, with around sixty

tons of paint used each time. However, the structure can still

be affected by sun and wind. In sunny weather, heat can

cause the side of the tower facing the sun to expand, while

the shaded side remains unaffected. This causes the tower to

lean up to eighteen centimetres in the opposite direction

from the sun.

The tower is periodically lit up

for special occasions such as

Bastille Day and Chinese New

Year, and for the countdown to

the year 2000, over 20,000

individual lightbulbs were

installed for a spectacular

display.

As a famous landmark, the

tower has been featured in a

number of ﬁlms, including

Louis Lumiere’s ”Panorama

Pendant L'ascension De La

Tour Eiffel" (1897) which was

the earliest and, possibly most

famously, the 1984 James

Bond ﬁlm "A View To A

Kill".

It is one of the most visited

and recognised landmarks in

Paris. It is thought that over

200 million people have

visited the attraction since its

inauguration.”

PRIVATE

W. W.

SHELTON.

Private Shelton was

reported wounded in

the New Zealand

Herald

June

1917, “is the second

son of Mr. Frederick

Shelton, of Harding

Street Advice has

been received by his

parents that he was

seriously wounded

both

legs,

involving

the

amputation of his

left leg. Private Shelton, who has been on active service

about two years, was wounded in the hand early last

October. He was born and educated in Auckland,

subsequently going North, where he was engaged in bush

contracting and agricultural pursuits. He is well-known

about Kaiwaka and Maungaturoto as an enthusiastic

cricketer and tennis player. Mr Shelton's older son, Private

Fred. Shelton, who went to the front with a later

reinforcement, was also wounded at the Somme, early in

October, and after having been in hospital for several

months is again at the front. “

And in the Auckland Weekly News, 20 September 1917, it

was reported that William had died of his wounds in

France on 12 July 1917.

At the last Kaipara Council meeting in

Dargaville on 11th July, the newly

established Incorporated Society Tika

Whai made a presentation to the

Councillors.

Tika Whai is a group of design,

construction

and

environmental

professionals and Iwi from the region,

who feel they should not stand on the

sideline while Council appears to get

suffocated in the overwhelming

amount of development in the greater

Kaipara area.

In their address, Tika Whai proposed a

3-fold approach to support coping with

developments:

i) Council to establish a Development

Design Panel with a Landscape

Architect/Ecologist,

Registered

Architect and a Town Planner, with

authority to determine on development

applications. Similar Design Panels,

with its members selected by the

respective professional bodies, already

operate in other Councils.

This Panel would be funded

by the Applicant.

ii) Tika Whai offers to assist

Council, free of charge, with

the development of strategic,

long-term

visions

for

development

across

the

Kaipara, in an advisory

capacity.

iii) Tika Whai offers, also free

of charge, to support Council

staff

through

pro-active

involvement

with

development decisions and

regulation, by such means as

providing a pre-application

filter

for

larger

development/

subdivision proposals.

Although the above in first instance

relates to developments in and around

Mangawhai, Tika Whai is aware of

other developments, including the

impact of the motorway extending to

the borders of the Kaipara District (and

Kaiwaka then the first Northland

township after the motorway), and

proactive planning for the entire area is

timely.

Anyone in the greater Kaipara area,

interested to contribute professionally

to Tika Whai, including people with for

instance a legal or an economic

background, are invited to contact the

Tika Whai Secretary, architect Dave

Launder (dave@led.co.nz). Note that

Tika Whai is a not for profit

organisation, and its members cannot

commercially

benefit

from

its

activities.
