KAIPARA LIBRARIES JOIN

NATIONWIDE NETWORK

Kaiwaka Library joined Kotui, the National Library system,

along with Dargaville, Paparoa, Maungaturoto and

Mangawhai Libraries on Tuesday 15 March.

The Kaipara District Libraries group not only joined more

than 36 other libraries nationwide already using Kotui, but

also became the first group to include volunteer libraries.

Kaiwaka volunteers were joined by Sue Sutherland, who is

from Christchurch and is a member of the Kotui

Consortium and Jo Talijancich, of the Kaipara District

Council for the ‘switch over’.

Kaiwaka Librarian, Wendy Howard cut the cake for the

occasion. Yes, there were five lovely chocolate cakes for

the five libraries!

MAUNGATUROTO and

DISTRICTS ROTARY

CLUB

Many of you will be aware that we

sadly lost Terry Hanna who was a

member of the Club for 44 years. He

was a Paul Harris Fellow and his life

epitomised the Rotary motto “Service

above self.” During his time as a

member of our Club, Terry was the

instigator of many activities that made

our community a better place. We will

miss you Terry, but we are grateful for

having you in our lives.

As a result of the cyclone which

devastated Tonga we decided to

support another Emergency Response

Kit (ERK). These kits are kept in

storage, so they can be despatched

quickly when needed. Each kit consists

of 60 items packed in a 78l watertight

container.

These basic supplies will support a

family for several days when they have

been involved in a disaster.

In the past few weeks we have

sponsored several areas both within

and outside the club.

Firstly, we contributed $250 to enable a

young disabled student to attend a

Challenge Camp run by Rotary.

We have also sponsored a local lad

who, later in April, will attend RYLA

(Rotary Youth Leadership Academy).

All young people who have been

involved in this camp have found it

hugely beneficial to their careers.

In the middle of March, the Club paid

for a bus to get all Year 12 students

from Otamatea to Whangarei for the

Rotary Youth Driving Academy.

This day enables the youngsters who

are new to driving to be more aware of

some of the issues that face them when

they are behind the wheel.

A number of Rotarians have completed

training as Driver Mentors. This will

enable us to support those in the

community who have their Learner’s

Licence and are working towards their

Restricted. We are doing this in

conjunction with Te Roroa and

Drivesafe Northland.

Once again, we have had some

interesting speakers. Two of note were,

Ian and Jasmine Kiernan (District

Governor Nominee) from Norfolk

Island. Not only did Ian give us an

insight into island life but also a

different aspect of Rotary in our

District and his aspirations for 2019.

Another speaker we had was Belinda

Vernon (ex MP) who spoke about the

restoration work on Motutapu Island

and the plans the Trust has for the next

forty years.

The motto is “breathing life into an

ancient landform” and they welcome

volunteers either as families or

corporates.

RIVERVIEW

RESTHOME

NEEDS HELP

The good news is that our expansion

has commenced, the not so good news

is that we have had to pause work on

site, this has come about for a couple

of reasons , There have been

unforgivable delays in the completion

of survey work which has been

necessary because some boundary

changes have necessitated changes in

some of the OYO titles. We understand

that this is near completion, which

must be done for bank securities.

While the bank gave us heads up for

financing the larger share of the

project, we have had to comply with a

long list of conditions which I am sad

to say are ongoing. We always knew

that we would have to have some

considerable

additional

support

financially from the community and

were confident this would roll in as the

project advanced.

It looks like we will have to have this

financial support sooner rather than

later so,

We appeal to potential givers to

consider your support now.

We are deeply grateful to Alby and his

Den for ongoing fundraising and also

donations in lieu of flowers from local

funerals; every little bit helps! The

need for higher level of care is with us

now!

Manager Tracy often has to turn

prospective clients away that are in

need of a higher level of care than we

can offer; a local identity has recently

had to relocate to Ranburn. We are not

happy that we cannot “look after our

People”. Some respite clients with

dementia have also had to find

accommodation elsewhere.

Rev. Wayne Thornton Ph 431 4122

www.mangawhaianglican.org.nz

Our Rotary members join me in

remembering the 44years of

unstinted service given to Rotary and

the local community by Paul Harris

Fellow, Terry Hanna.

The PHF award is the Rotary’s

equivalent of a knighthood. Terry was

awarded a PHF in August 1988

Terry joined Rotary on the 1st July

1973 and from that day onwards he was

a shining example of the Rotary mantra

of Family first, then Business and

Service. Not only did he raise and

nurture a wonderful family, but he

expanded what was a modest dairy

farm into what today is regarded as one

of the top farms in the district all the

while being dedicated to the ideals of

Rotary.

Terry held many offices in the club in

some cases multiple times, he was

President in 78/79 having assisted

Colin Smith the previous year when

Ivy Ball donated land for the

Retirement Village and it was Colin

and Terry who did a lot of the

canvassing to do the initial research

and development of the project.

Terry’s passion for Piroa Falls has

resulted in the exceedingly popular

place it now is with bridges across the

river and developed walkways. Terry

planned the ingenious use of a flying

fox and helicopter to position picnic

tables right down beside the swimming

hole, all the while working closely with

Local Authorities and DOC.

There are very few places in

Maungaturoto that do not have the

Terry Hanna stamp on them. The initial

playground in the centre of the town,

Nikau Grove - a pleasant quiet glade

and walking track just to name a

couple.

The generous use of farm vehicles for

gathering goods for our auctions then

getting rid of unsold items, transporting

sheep shillings, pig manure, and latterly

calf litter compost “Hanna Transport”

as we dubbed it was invaluable to the

club. Terry’s tractor helped develop the

avenue of trees from the SH1 to the

township.

A Hanna vehicle was present in pretty

much every Christmas Parade over past

decades.

In 1985 we organised a train trip from

Auckland to raise

funds for a Rotary

world-wide

initiative

eradicate

Poliomyelitis, the

hundreds

visitors

aboard

were entertained

on the Hanna farm

with farm tours

and multiple demonstrations of farming

activities. A hugely successful day.

Ridding the district of privet saw a

huge effort from Terry which sparked

an awareness from The Northland

Regional Council along with the

Kaipara District Council and a local

action group, we are now seeing great

results.

Terry was our historian with hundreds

of visiting club banners, photos of

working bees and events all mounted

and faithfully recorded.

It is not possible to recount all of

Terry’s deeds, just to mention a few

from outside of Rotary. He was a

member of the North Kaipara

Agricultural Association, and he rode

many times in the show ring; a member

of the Hunt club and he won the

Northland Steeplechase - he was an

excellent horseman.

I feel certain that there are many more

organisations who benefited from

Terry’s involvement that I am not

aware of, for that I apologise.

Terry’s handshake welcoming you to

Rotary was always warm and sincere

we will miss it.

Terry passed away doing something he

was excited about, while waiting as

Craig loaded calf litter onto a truck for

him to deliver.

We are grateful to Kathleen and

Terry’s family for sharing him with us,

an outstanding Rotarian who was a

great exponent of Rotary’s Motto

“Service above Self”.

May I conclude by recalling the motto

from Terry’s and my boarding school

days in

Auckland “Virtus Pollet” Which means

manliness prevails. In Terry, manliness

certainly prevailed.

EASTER ART

TRAIL

The Mangawhai Artists Art Trail will

be an opportunity to enjoy weekend

life in Mangawhai along with a large

dose of creativity. You will be able to

see a huge range of art and visit artists’

studios.

There are 19 venues including artist

studios, the Heritage Church by

Mangawhai Museum, Bennett’s Cafe

and Mangawhai Artists Gallery to visit

with well over 50 artists showing their

work.

Jeanette Vickers, curator for the

exhibition says, ‘Members’ exhibitions

are always popular because with so

many artists contributing there is a

fantastic mix of art styles, mediums

and images. You will see paintings,

prints,

3-dimensional

work,

landscapes, still life, birds, abstracts;

the variety will be considerable’.

Opening on Thursday 22 March at

6pm and running all the way

through the Easter break until 4

April, there will be plenty to see and

enjoy.

During the Easter weekend, artists

open their studios which are always

intriguing and revealing. This is an

opportunity to see behind the scenes

and marvel at how artists produce their

work. Artists will be on hand to talk

about their art and answer your

questions. Mark the dates off now –

Easter Saturday 31 March and Easter

Sunday 1 April, from 10am to 4pm.

The Art Trail is free, and the guide

book is $5. The guide book is packed

with illustrations and information on

the artists and their art as well as a map

to help you plan your route around the

venues. The Art Trail offers an

opportunity to buy art direct from the

artists – cash and carry.

After Easter there will be three more

exhibitions at the Gallery - changing

every two weeks.

OTAMATEA HIGH SCHOOL

Our Principal

It is almost 5 years since Rachel

Clothier-Simmonds was appointed

Principal and during her tenure there

have been a lot of new initiatives and

changes that have taken place that have

resulted in improved achievement

results and school culture. With an

increasing roll, changing population,

and developing initiatives in education,

it is timely to consult with the staff,

students and community to ensure that

the school continues to meet the needs

of those it serves and to define a future

direction for the school.

Strategic planning

The Board of Trustees have contracted

Sue Poynter to lead a values driven

approach to define a long term vision

and framework that will drive the

future focus of the school. Sue is an

independent educational consultant

who has worked closely with Otamatea

High School in an advisory capacity on

a number of projects including

strategic

planning,

professional

development and performance review.

On Friday, May 4th, 2018 we will be

spending

the

whole

day

collaboration with staff and community

to explore and shape the future

education of your children. We invite

members of the community who would

like to participate in this process to

contact

the

school

ohs@otamatea.school.nz

with

expression of interest. Lunch will be

provided. Please confirm attendance

for this full day event by midday on

Tuesday 1st May as catering numbers

need to be finalised. Come and join

us!

~ Sue Poynter, School Solutionz

Social media

Many of our students are excellent

users of social media such as Facebook

and Instagram but some students use

these channels inappropriately. The

legal age for students to use such sites

is 13 but it is not uncommon for

younger students to create profiles. If

we are aware of your child becoming

involved in sending or receiving

inappropriate messages we will be in

touch with you so that you become

aware of what is happening. You will

then be able to closely monitor their

internet use in order to keep them safe.

Police vetting

Later in the year we will be looking for

host families for both the Reporoa

Exchange and to host a group of Thai

students. In order to be eligible as

hosts all family members

over 18 need to be police

vetted. The school’s

procedure is to also police

vet any volunteers who

have unsupervised access

to students such as sports

coaches and those on

overnight

trips

and

activities. As the police

vetting can be a timely

process we are seeking

volunteers for each of these

now. The link below gives

details about the process.

Potential

volunteers

are

encouraged to complete the

form and bring two suitable forms of

identification to the school office for

verifying. Please note that the results

of the police vet will remain

confidential and can only be discussed

between the Principal and the person

who has completed the form. Anyone

who has spent a long period of time in

Australia will need to complete

additional forms.

http://www.police.govt.nz/sites/default/

files/publications/pvs-vetting-request-

and-consent-form.pdf

Host Families Wanted

We have a group of Thai students

coming for three weeks from October

5th to 25th this year. If you are able to

host one or two, please contact

Heather

Troost

heather.troost@otamatea.school.nz,

or on 021 08098222. You will receive

$200/ week per student to help towards

costs. We look forward to hearing from

you real soon.

Careers Roadshow

Parents are most welcome to attend

the roadshow from 9.00am to 12.00 on

Friday 23 March. If you would like to

see Elizabeth van den Berg regarding

your student’s needs in any area of

giftedness or talent, or regarding a

correspondence subject or careers,

please make an appointment for the

Parent

Teacher

interviews

Wednesday 21 March.

Public Health News - Scabies

We have some scabies in the

community, so please be aware.

Scabies is caused by tiny bugs that

burrow along in the skin, laying eggs

as they go. Above the eggs, small

blisters can form, these are very itchy.

Scabies will not go away without

treatment, take your child to the GP or

talk to your Public Health Nurse. You

will require cream from the pharmacy

or GP and the whole family must get

treated, wash everyone’s clothes and

sheets in hot water, have a shower

bath at night time before rubbing cream

all over your body and sleep with it on,

wash the cream off the next day and

put on clean clothes. Children should

not attend school or preschool until 24

hours after the first treatment. Don’t

share a bed or clothes with someone

who has untreated scabies.

KAIWAKA CAN

We have been going through some

changes in Kaiwaka Can over the past

month or so.

New Council representative

We have said a sad farewell to Annie

van der Plas from Council who has

worked so hard on our behalf for the

past three years. Her replacement is

Jenny Rooney, recently appointed as

Funding Advisor to the Council. We

look forward to Jenny’s contribution.

New way of operating

In the past, we have all dealt with the

whole agenda together but as the

projects have expanded so much, we

have now divided into groups with

similar tasks.

These include -

roading and transport,

environmental,

development,

recreational and social concern.

Each of these has quite a list to manage

but the teams are already well under

way with their plans. For example, one

of the teams is working on a lighting

strategy as we try and recover our

reputation as the little town of lights. It

is a highly complex task, but we want

to have a lot more lights in place by the

time the Scout Jamboree arrives in

January,

with

its

theme

‘Illumination’.

Entrance Sculptures

Once again, we are waiting on a final

go ahead from NZTA as they pass a

decision up through the levels that have

to be consulted – a great test of

patience!

Roading and the future

The new proposed 10-year plan for

Council seems to offer very little relief

to some of our roads that are in very

poor condition, especially Gibbons

Road. Much of the extra funding is

going into the Poutu Road to deal with

the demands of logging in the area.

We are also trying to clarify plans for

Kaiwaka in the proposed Te Hana

Whangarei expressway but so far have

no clear idea of what is proposed.

Walkways and access

There is a possibility of some extra

funding for our dreams of better access

round Kaiwaka and a network of tracks

and easy bridge access. We have to

present a strong case for this funding to

KDC before the closing date in early

April.

There are many other items on our

agenda, but this gives a glimpse of

what is happening. We meet this

Monday (19 March) for our regular

meeting and remind people that anyone

is welcome to any of the meetings, held

each third Monday 5.30pm in the

Archie Bull Hall. We would love

people of diverse ideas and gifts to join

in planning the future for our great

little township and district.

KAIWAKA

LIBRARY

New library management system -

Kotui

Our new system was launched last

week, many thanks to KDC and the

Dargaville Public Library staff for the

funds, the commitment and the hard

work that has gone into it. All the

community libraries - Kaiwaka,

Mangawhai,

Maungaturoto

and

Paparoa - as well as the public library

in Dargaville are now using this

system. It's a great improvement over

the old one.

Please have patience with us as we

familiarise ourselves with the changes,

it will take a little time to get to know

all the ins and outs and get comfortable

with it.

Generosity

On 23 April at 11:20am, there will be a

workshop held in the Kaiwaka War

Memorial Hall by Generosity NZ,

which members of the community are

welcome to attend. Generosity NZ is a

service that provides access to

extensive

funding

opportunities

offered throughout New Zealand,

through their givUS and givME portals

for community organisations and

individuals respectively. Come along

and find out how to use this service

effectively, which can be accessed for

free through your membership at

Kaiwaka Library (or any other library

in the district) via this link - https://

Book review

Recently I've read I was told to come

alone: My journey behind the lines of

jihad by Souad Mekhennet.

was

recommended

to me by one of

our

library

members. This

is a memoir by

German

journalist

Turkish/

Moroccan

descent,

who

found herself

asking the hard

questions about

why and how

the situation in the Middle East has

come to where it is today. It's a

fascinating account, and quite an eye-

opener. This book is on the Dargaville

shelves in our library until June. (363

WOUNDED

KERERU

Since the possum and rat eradication,

we have had more and more kereru. Up

to eight in one tree. So, it seems more

young chicks survive.

Yesterday Sarah found a bleeding

kereru adult on the back of her car

drinking from the gunnel – pictured.

Feathers were torn from its chest.

A quick minute of research says that

predators on adult kereru are stoats and

cats. So, a stoat or cat could have

injured the bird as it fed down low.

We will erect a high drinking bowl to

secure the water source.

Our neighbour says she saw a team of

eight to 10 mynahs mobbing a kereru -

could they be the assailants?

Any other ideas? ~ Hugh.

Years ago, I worked in the yard of a home

improvement business. One day a man walked

up to me and asked where the 2x4's were.

I replied, "How long do you want them?"

"Well I am building a house, so I'll need them

for a long time!"

EASTER SUNDAY ~

THEORY OR TRUTH

‘He was raised to life to make

us right with God.’ Romans

4:25 NLT

The Great Houdini promised

he'd come back from the dead

and talk to his friends. Some

actually consulted mediums to see if

there was any word from beyond the

grave. But there wasn’t! Only one man

who promised to rise from the dead

kept his promise. Jesus! And he did it

‘to make us right with God’ (Romans

4:25 NLT).

Business transactions in Bible days

were relatively uncomplicated. Once

the seller laid down a price and the

buyer picked it up, the deal was done.

On Good Friday Jesus laid down the

price, on Easter Sunday God picked it

up, and your salvation was paid for.

But the greatest proof of the

resurrection is found in the transformed

lives of people all over the world. The

songwriter put it like this:

“You ask me how l know he lives? He

lives within my heart”! ln one of his

ﬁnal appearances recorded in the book

of Revelation, Jesus announced: ‘l am

he who lives, and was dead, and,

behold,

alive

forevermore...Whoever

lives

and

believes

shall

never

die’ (Revelation 1:18; John 11 :26

NKJV).

Today Christ stands knocking at the

door of your heart, saying, ‘If anyone

hears my voice and opens the door, l

will come in...’ (Revelation 3:20

NKJV). Unless you know Christ

personally as your Saviour, you're

without hope in this world and the one

to come. The resurrection of Christ is

your only hope. Without that you have

nothing to look forward to but a hole in

the ground. So today repent of your

sins and place your trust in the one

who died and rose again for you.
