Untouchable

Friday 8 September 7:30pm (M)

This movie has ratings of 10 out of 10,

average 8.6; Reviewers -Brilliant,

excellent, movie of true humanity...

Synopsis: An irreverent, uplifting

comedy about friendship, trust and

human possibility, Untouchable has

broken box office records in its native

France and across Europe. Based on a

true story of friendship between a

handicap millionaire (Francois Cluzet)

and his street smart ex-con caretaker

(Omar Sy).Untouchable depicts an

unlikely camaraderie rooted in honesty

and humour between two individuals

who, on the surface, would seem to have

nothing in common.

over the bridge.

 Bouquet to Steve Elliott, Kaiwaka Yamaha, for ‘going

KAIWAKA

WEATHER

Greetings, lovely people. Our last

month of winter greeted us with a

lovely day and a couple of rainy windy

days to follow. Another beautiful

sunny day after an icy morning as

some may have had a frost again. Rain

again for a few days then back to a nice

fine day, then that strong southwest

cold weather. Then back to fine cloudy

weather for a couple of days with

thunder thrown in. That is up to

halfway through the month and the

second half followed in the same

manner. We finished the month on a

very wet note. Some parts of the

country

were

floundering

with

floods. Oh, the poor animals out in the

elements. I notice a lot of lambs

around this month and the spring

flowers are in full bloom.

Okay, for August 2017 we had 127mm

rain and for 2016 we had 226 mm. For

2017 and 2016 we had 14 days of rain

both months. The first 8 months of

2017 we had 1368mm rain and 2016

we had 1076mm.

Our driest August since 1987 was 2001

with 54mm and the wettest was 1989

with 318mm. Our driest first 8 months

since 1987 was 1994 with 612mm and

the wettest was 1987 with 1373mm. So

therefore 1987 was wetter than this

year by 5mm. Interesting looking at

those figures.

What is the biggest gripe of

Retirees? There is not enough time to

get everything done. Also among

Retirees, what is considered formal

attire? Tied shoes. Looking forward to

our days of spring. Take care out there

and be kind to each other.

VISITOR

NUMBERS UP

ALL THROUGH KAIWAKA

Northland's peak period visitor inflow

has increased by 15 per cent over the

past two years. About 90 per cent of

this peak tourist traffic arrives by car

on the main highway, and 60 per cent

comes from Auckland. This is shown

in a survey of Northland holiday traffic

undertaken on State Highway One at

Kaiwaka from Boxing Day to January

22, 2017.

ERO Visit

During week one of this term we had a

four day visit from the Education

Review

Office.

They

visited

classrooms, spoke with various groups

of staff and students and checked the

school’s documentation. Their initial

findings to the Senior Leadership Team

and Board of Trustees were extremely

positive and were a great endorsement

of the positive, safe, learning culture at

the school. The lens which they look

through is ‘conditions which support

equity and excellence’ and they

verbally commented that we had a very

positive and respectful school culture

and tone which supported equity and

excellence. They also felt that the

whakatauki ‘He waka eke noa’ was

evident through high levels of

collaboration and shared commitment

to supporting equity. The full report

will be available later in the term. Once

this is finalised it will be shared with

the school community as well as being

available on the ERO website as a

public document.

The Noho Marae has been booked for

the week after the Kaipara Festival. If

you would like to help please keep

these dates aside. Noho is a valuable

experience for our students, where they

learn the values of whakamana,

manaakitanga,

tikanga

and

whanaungatanga. This year, the Year 3,

4, 5 and 6 students only will be

attending the Noho Marae. This is

because the school has grown in size

and we can no longer fit the Junior

School at the Marae overnight. If you

have any expertise in things Maori, that

you would like to share with the

students, please contact the school.

KAIWAKA SPORTS

ASSOCIATION

OTAMATEA

REPERTORY

THEATRE

The Jungle Book

Well, ‘The Jungle Book’ is now over.

It was a hugely successful season

which resulted in us putting on an extra

show. Thanks to all the people who

came and supported us. And a special

thank you to the Lions Club who

hosted the opening night and

contributed to the show’s success.

The composer, BB Cooper, who

created this adaptation with Toby

Hulse, has very kindly donated the

royalties from our extra show - $200 –

to the Playground Project at the

Otamatea Marae, due for completion in

October. Such a generous gesture from

people on the other side of the world!

Te Waka Huia – 15 September 2017,

8pm

ORT will host this play inspired by the

1963 Brynderwyn bus crash.

It is a fictional tribute to those who

died in New Zealand’s worst road

accident, and to those who have lived

with the loss ever since. The play takes

place in the present day. Pahi -

accompanied by his ghosts - is the

sometime resident of a derelict bus in

an abandoned paddock on the outskirts

of small town Helensville. When two

teenagers move in, drawn by their own

sense of homelessness, Pahi’s tangled

worlds of past and present collide. As

his secrets unravel, and the threat of

losing the bus becomes clear, the three

discover a truth: whatever it looks like,

home is worth fighting for.

Tickets available on www.iticket.co.nz

Pantomime,

part of this very funny pantomime, and

arrange an audition time. There is a

wide range of roles for both adults and

children and of course we need helpers

for

behind

the

scenes.

The

performances are likely to be at the end

of November and beginning of

December.

Fast Five Netball

Our Fast Five Module starts later

this month.

It will be a social, mixed module for

men, women and teenagers with games

held in our gymnasium on Sunday

afternoons. The Module will run for 6

Sundays. You can have up to 14

players in a team, and the team fee is

$100. Email me for the team

registration form. This will be a fun

module, no netball experience needed,

so why not get a group of mates

together and give it a try!

Fright Night

Our annual Fright Night is coming up

next month. We transform our

changing rooms into a haunted house

for people to walk thought. It would be

great to have some new decorations/

props for the haunted house – so if

there are any creative people out there

who’d be interested in helping out, that

would be much appreciated. Please

contact

cherylanderson051@gmail.com.

We were too busy having fun to have a

meeting in July, we celebrated at the

Golf Club with a Mid-Winter

Christmas dinner, which most of the

members enjoyed. Glennis had made a

special effort to make the food slightly

different from the week before so those

attending both the CWI and Women’s

Section functions didn't get the same

menu, which Women’s Section ordered

originally. We were allowed to take

Meals on Wheels to 3 of our members

who had paid but were in poor health

and couldn't be there at the last

moment.

The raffles, at the Dinner, were won by

Pat Judd and Helen Hawkins.

On the 18th July Lena, Heather, Bettie

and Ann attended Birkenhead’s

Birthday, which was very enjoyable,

think we will take some "Toy Boys" to

dance to the lovely music with next

year!!

We had a short committee meeting

before the main meeting on August

24th, the meeting was well attended,

the Birthday Girls for the month were

Bettie Marchant, (good to have you

back after your long stint in

Hospital), Pat Judd, and Pamela

Truscott, hope you all had Happy

Birthdays.

We still miss three of our members

who have had to shift away and we

hope to visit Dawn Bright in Wellsford,

Bev Ogilvy in Warkworth, and Noeline

Davies in Orewa, Lena is organising

transport and any members who didn't

put your names down and would like to

go please let Lena know on 4315034

we do not have a date as yet.

Lena (Our Delegate) and Gloria our

President went to conference at

Swanson and Lena gave her report. The

Speaker was RNZRSA President B.J

Clarke. He spoke on Changes to the

RSA when the new Constitution is

completed. He mentioned our Front-

Line Service Personnel who are going

through a very hard time. Gift Parcels

are being sent over to try and brighten

their days.

Women’s Sections received

"Accolade"

acknowledging the effort

and hard work they do to

support the RSA. Lena was re-elected

onto the NWA Executive Committee -

congratulations Lena.

On July 29th Gloria, Lena, Heather and

Trish attended the Northern District

Women’s Section 60th conference

followed by Kaitaia's 70th Birthday,

and had a great trip

We were lucky to have a very

interesting Presentation talk by Pamela

Truscott speaking on the 20 years Pam

and her late husband, Dr Graham

Truscott, and family spent in India.

They had to endure 3 famines, rats,

mice, lizards, fleas, mosquitos, and

white ants, and drink buffalo milk. One

of the saddest things was when Pamela

went to get her new born

daughter’s matinee set out of storage

and it had been eaten by mice and

parasites.

Thank you, Pamela, for this insight into

your Missionary work, helping under

privileged families in the slums. The

Truscotts had to live in a mud hut,

Pamela's kitchen was a separate shed

which had to be locked, so remember

our RSA kitchen is "Paradise".

On the 2nd October is the Northern

Ladies Bowls to be held at Waipu,

good luck Hakaru Team.

Keep Saturday 28th October free to

attend the Marian Burns Concert, she

sings "Our sort of songs".

Our meals on the 2nd Friday of the

month are going well, but it would be

good to have more customers to enjoy

them.

The next meeting is on 28th

September, 1.15 p.m at the RSA

Clubrooms at Hakaru, new members

are always welcome.

Any enquiries ring Gloria Durrant, our

President on 4315818.

That is all for now, keep well and warm

- yeah summer’s coming.~ Cheers, Ann

Thousands of New Zealanders will

follow the lead of Cure Kids

ambassadors Art Green and Matilda

Rice as they do their bit to help raise $1

million for child health research. The

celebrity couple, who are passionate

about child health, will both dye their

hair red ahead of Red Nose Day on

Friday 29 September 2017.

The Red Nose Day appeal runs from 1-

30 September and will see more than

800 schools, 400 businesses and 500

volunteers from around the country

take part. They will fundraise through a

variety of activities – from casual

Fridays and bake sales, to fun Red

Nose Day challenges like dying your

hair red, or challenging your CEO to

SkyJump off Auckland’s Sky Tower.

Funds raised from Red Nose Day will

help support research to find cures and

improved treatments for serious health

conditions that affect Kiwi kids,

including child and adolescent mental

health, stillbirth, child cancers, obesity,

inherited heart conditions and autism

spectrum disorders, among many

others.

The first Red Nose Day in New

Zealand was held in 1989 – many New

Zealanders

still

remember

the

catchy ‘You make the whole world

smile, with your little button nose’ song

and feel strongly about continuing to

support child health research.

Book reviews:

Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman. "Under

the streets of London there's a place

most people could never even dream

of. A city of monsters and saints,

murderers and angels, knights in

armour and pale girls in black velvet.

This is the city of the people who have

fallen between the cracks. Richard

Mayhew, a young businessman, is

going to find out more than enough

about this other London. A single act

of kindness catapults him out of his

workday existence and into a world

that is at once eerily familiar and

utterly bizarre. And a strange destiny

awaits him down here, beneath his

native

city:

neverwhere.

"(goodreads.com) I've read a few Neil

Gaiman books before, and this one did

not disappoint. He's a master

storyteller, with an eye for the slightly

different. This book is on the

Dargaville

shelves

until

early

December, and we have other titles on

our fiction shelves.

Dying

Breed

Peter

Hanington.

"Kabul,

Afghanistan. William

Carver, a veteran but

unpredictable

BBC

hack, is thrown into

the unknown when a

bomb goes off killing a

local official. Warned

off the story from

every direction, Carver

won't give in until he finds the truth. A

Dying Breed is a gripping novel about

journalism in a time of war, about the

struggle to tell the stories that need to

be told - even if it is much easier not

to." (goodreads.com) I didn't set out

expecting much of this book - it

seemed like a good idea when I first

picked it up, then went off the idea but

started reading it anyway. Soon I was

finding it hard to put down, and it kept

me enthralled to the end. This book is

on the Dargaville shelves in the library

until early December.

See you in the library!

For Father's Day ...

DAD, BLESS YOUR

CHILDREN

“Children without caring, involved

fathers often spend their whole lives

searching for a sense of identity and

self-worth. Increasingly they’re finding

them in the company of rebellious peer

groups, street gangs, drug dealers, and

on social media and the internet. And

we see the results of it all around us.

Instead of fulfilling their God-given

destiny, these children become defined

and labelled by a lifestyle such as

‘runaway’, ‘convict’, troublemaker’,

‘addict’. Before Tupac Shaker, the rap

artist known for his violent song lyrics,

was gunned down in 1996, he said, ‘I

never knew my real father. I know for

a fact that if I’d had a father, I’d have

some discipline [and] more confidence.

Your mother can calm you down,

reassure you, show you where your

manhood is. But you need a man to

teach you how to be a man.’

When a man was brought to him for

healing, before Jesus forgave and

healed him, he called him ‘son’. He

didn’t say, ‘You’ve got to clean up

your act,’ or You must do things my

way.’ No, he established a relationship

with the man by showing him love and

acceptance. And as a father you need to

do the same. Loving and accepting

your children as they are, without

conditions and condemnation, is the

greatest gift you can give them.”

~ Word for the Day, 3 September.

Rhema Media

From Thelma’s

Scrapbook …

When Mother was a little

girl

She had some yellow frocks,

They’re sewn into a patchwork quilt

And kept inside a box -

The quilt is made from bits of things

That people used to wear,

An’ Mother tells me tales about

The different bits that’s there ...

Here was the answer - except, of

course, I am not the sort of person who

enjoys having a piece of needlework

“on the go” for years! Suddenly the

idea was born, I would combine the

two crafts I most enjoyed and made a

collection of patchwork playthings,

using all the family bits and pieces so

that one day I could tell my

grandchildren tales about them.

The time for grandchildren has not yet

come, but as I have stitched, I have

thought of the future when together we

shall open the box and I shall tell them

… how a bit of Grandma’s dress

An’ one bit of Grandpa’s chair,

The pink bit’s Aunt Matilda

An the blue is uncle John,

An Mother’s nursery curtain's there

With half the pattern gone ...

Kaiwaka

School

Agriculture Day reminds us

that numbers are well

down.

Pictured right: Toka Kemp,

Henry Kemp, Toka Walker

and George Brown in 1939.

Our dairy cow numbers

have decreased. Just after

WWII there were 19 dairy

sheds on the Oneriri

Peninsula - now there is

one.

The same is happening with

the sheep numbers on the

Peninsula.

Tony

Hargreaves remembers in

the 1950-1970s there were

3000 breeding ewes on

Pukenui Road’s two sheep farms - in

those days there were only four farms

on that road!

In the 1950-1960s: Travelling west out

of Kaiwaka there were sheep on the

Pukenui Road farms of Woodburn*

and Metcalfs, then Gubbs; over the

railway line - Tommy and Joker

Donaldson (Kaitara Farms); Brian

Linnell -* Waihakari; Jack Hill; Hubert

Linnell-Rangiora; P Short; Jack

New Zealand Vol II 1958, Cranwell

Pub. Editor GA Tait

Land and Survey Blocks - ref

Centennial of Kaiwaka 1859-1959

pages79-83 The Kaira Farm Settlement

of 3,822 acres six miles west of

Kaiwaka (Oneriri) acquired by the

Crown from 1950-1956 and was

developed as 7sheep farms.

Oneriri Station and Pukeatua still

maintain large flocks, and there are

smaller flocks on Ranganui Rd.,

Rangiora Rd, and Kaira Rd.

This decline is not happening on the

Oneriri Peninsula only:

“Otamatea carried 110,000 sheep in

1945 rising to 265,000 in 1961; .”

Ref:

pg 68 & 69

National Resources Survey

Part III Northland Region Pub 1964 Re

Owens govt printer

-“

New Zealand's sheep numbers have

plummeted to where there are now

only six for each person living here.

Figures released from Statistics New

Zealand showed the country had

dropped below 30 million sheep for the

first time since 1943.There used to be

22 sheep per person in New Zealand

when the number peaked at 70.3

million in 1982 and the population was

3.18 million. Now there's only six

sheep for each person. Agriculture

statistics manager Neil Kelly said the

number had fallen to 29.8 million at

June 30, 2014, a 3 per cent fall from

2013, or 983,000 fewer sheep. Ref:

http://www.stuff.co.nz/business/

farming/sheep/68510249/nzs-sheep-

flock-smallest-since-1943

Sheep

numbers

have

gradually

declined since the mid-1980s, due to

factors such as depressed wool prices,

droughts in the 1990s, and competition

from other land-intensive farming

activities (eg dairy and forestry). For

the Oneriri subdivision has had the

greatest impact.
