KAIWAKA GOOD

SORT

A beautiful bouquet of flowers from

Lindy for Mark Ottaway. A special

thank you for all the work he does at

the Kaiwaka Sports Complex and

grounds. He has put in so much work

at the KSA lately - with redoing the

gymnasium floor and the instigation

and finishing of the fitness trail. He is

now working toward benches placed in

strategic places for folk to take a break

– then there will be fitness equipment!

Thank you, Mark!

Captain of the New Zealand Trans Tasman Sheep Dog Trial Team, Murray

Child, from Maungakaramea, led a training field day on Friday 27 July at

Oneriri Station, Kaiwaka (excellent venue).

A lot of promising young dogs were on

display, after watching them for a while,

Murray was then able to offer his advice on

their

continued

development.

demonstrated with some of his own young

dogs, but also worked one to one with each

dog and owner. Murray’s theme for the day

was that a well trained dog makes mustering

a pleasure.

There were at least fifty people, local farmers

and dog trialers, from the far north to

Helensville in the south in attendance.

Special thanks to Murray Child, Vanessa and

Farmlands, Arthur Speirs and Purina ,

the

Molesworth SDTC, and to Trevor Smyth and

Oneriri Station for such a successful event.

KSA FUNDRAISER:

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 attack begins, paramedics arriving

on the scene and the time it takes to transport the

patient to hospital.

The keyrings come in packs of 3 and the cost is only

$15 - a small price to pay for potentially saving

somebody's life. A thoughtful gift for upcoming

Father's Day.

KAIWAKA

WEATHER

Well here we go again. 7 months gone

already of the year. It was a reasonable

July. It was cold, not too much wind

with a bit of sun poking through the

clouds and getting warmer. Those

persistent showers have been a

nuisance keeping the ground damp - no

lawn mowing around here going on.

We need a hovercraft with a mower

blade under it (now there is a

suggestion for a project for someone).

As I often say, at least we know we

will get some rain sometime, not like

other countries. The children are back

at school and before you know it there

will be more holidays for them soon.

For July 2018 we recorded 130mm and

July 2017 it was 168.

Our wettest July since 1987 was 1998

with 602mm and the driest July was

1993 with 33mm.

The first 7 months of 2018 we had

1261mm. and July 2017 we had

1241mm.

The wettest first 7 months since 1987

was 2018 with 1261mm and the driest

was 1987 with 480mm.

We had rain on 15days in July 2018

and in 2017 we had rain on 17 days.

Did you know Dolphins are so smart?

It only takes them a week to train

someone to stand by the poolside and

throw fish to them. Take care out

there and be kind to each other. Bev.

NIWA

Highlights

for July include:

Warmer than average temperatures

Lots of rain in the South Island

Highest temperature 22.3°C, Kaikoura

on 21 July

Lowest temperature -7.6°C, Middle-

march on 13 July

Highest 1-day rainfall 246 mm, at Mil-

ford Sound on 6 July

Of the six main centres in July 2018,

Tauranga was the warmest and sunni-

est, Christchurch was the coolest and

driest, and Wellington was the wettest

and least sunny.

Predictions for August -October

2018:

⚫

Temperatures are most likely to be

near average (50% chance).

⚫

Rainfall totals, soil moisture levels

and river flows are all about equally

likely to be near normal (40% chance)

or below normal (35% chance).

Mangawhai Artists Gallery

Winter Workshops - wonderful

The last few weeks might have been

chilly and wet but for many people in

Mangawhai it has been a productive,

creative and energising time. Rain,

frost and bursts of sun – the painting,

drawing, printmaking and so much

more made the Mangawhai Artists

Gallery Winter Workshop programme

the place to be to avoid winter blues.

With

over

thirty-six

learning

opportunities, at times the Gallery was

as busy as summer exhibition weeks.

Learning coordinator for

Mangawhai Artists, Nicola Everett

thanked the tutors who made sure the

workshops were well run, stimulating

and provided for beginners and the

more experienced. People participating

were thrilled at the variety with many

remarking it was great to have so much

choice but they hated not being able to

do all the workshops. Many are

planning ahead to next year and

considering what they might do.

Mangawhai Artists Inc (MAI) is

planning to expand their current

Gallery to build a year-round workshop

space. Mary-Anne Boyd, Chair of MAI

explained, ‘we know there is demand

for lots of learning opportunities. We

are delighted that with a designated art

workspace we can offer so much more.

Fund raising will begin soon’.

Print Week was supported by Kaipara

Creative Communities.

The Kauri Museum, in Matakohe, cares

for many unique treasures. We share

the stories these treasures represent

with

our

local,

national

and

international visitors. The Museum is a

charity that does not receive any local

government, or central government,

funding. One of the jewels in our

crown is a one of a kind home - Totara

House. It is an 1896 kauri villa, set in a

glorious prize-winning garden, which

stands across the valley from The

Kauri Museum. It was built by local

builders Samuel and Edward Cooksey

for George and Emily Smith. Made of

timber milled in the family sawmill at

the bottom of the road, Totara House

was home to George and Emily and

their family of eight children.

Access to the choicest pieces of kauri

timber at the mill resulted in the

creation of magnificent wall panelling

lining George and Emily’s billiard

room. Panelling that is unparalleled in

any existing home.

Totara House remained lived in by

George and Emily’s children until 2013

when Mavis Smith (aged 102) passed

away.

The Kauri Museum has always had a

strong connection with Totara House.

It was in the kitchen, over a cup of tea,

in front of the range, that the idea for

the museum was proposed. The Smith

family worked closely with Mervyn

Sterling and the wider community on

the museum project. Their commitment

to local history was complete when

they bequeathed Totara House, and its

contents, to the Museum.

Listed as an Historic Place Category 2

with Heritage New Zealand Pouhere

Taonga the covenant provides long

term protection for the property.

However, the house did not come with

an endowment for maintenance and its

listing with Heritage New Zealand does

not provide revenue either. As an

important part of our collection The

Kauri Museum is tasked with the care

of the house and its unique collection

of family heirlooms and stories. The

house and gardens are opened for

visitors on request. We also have a

summer open season for the house

where visitors are welcomed and taken

on a tour through the house.

Unfortunately, income raised from

admission activities is not sufficient to

sustain the upkeep of Totara House.

We have to think differently about how

we can preserve the house and its

stories for future generations – and we

need your help!

Heritage experts have thought about

the plight of buildings in similar

situations overseas. Donna Harris, in

her book ‘New Solutions for House

Museums’, makes a number of

recommendations:

⚫ Repurposing the Heritage House as a

study house – not open for the general

public but accessed on a semi-regular

basis for educational purposes

(workshops, community groups,

architecture students)

⚫ Repurposing for a non-house

museum use e.g. a library, guest house,

shop, educational classroom, storage or

office space

⚫ Co-stewardship or cooperative

partnership with another organisation

that has similar preservation goals in

mind

⚫ Adaptive use administered by the

Museum Board or by a heritage-

sympathetic third party These ideas

require refining to suit an historic

home that is in a rural location – with

marvellous harbour views! We need

input from our community to establish

a sustainable future for this uniquely

Kaipara treasure.

Please send through any thoughts and

impressions that you might have by

email to admin@kaurimuseum.com or

contact the Chief Executive Officer,

Lisa Tolich or Collections Manager

Curator, Dr Tracey Wedge by phone at

09 431 7417.

DOG

REGISTRATION

All dogs over the age of 12 weeks

old must be registered by 31

August 2018.

If your dog has been registered with

Kaipara District Council previously,

then a registration renewal notice has

been posted to the last recorded

address on Council's records recently.

Any dog owner who has not received

their notice can contact Council to

update their current address and

contact details.

Dog registration fees are $66.00 per

non-working dog and $44.00 for

working dogs if paid by 31 August

2018.

All dogs in New Zealand are legally

required to be registered, and

microchipped. (Working dogs are the

exception for microchipping).

Payments can be made online via Reg

the Dog (www.regthedog.co.nz) or at

Council's office in Dargaville or

Mangawhai.

The fees cover 93% of the cost of

Council’s

Animal

Management

Services include 24/7 animal control

for matters relating to public safety,

supply of a dog shelter for homeless or

lost dogs, educational programmes

encouraging

responsible

dog

ownership and patrol services to

manage nuisance dogs. Additional

costs over and above what is

contracted through Council’s service

provider include summer patrols at Kai

Iwi Lakes and extra patrolling in

Dargaville Township due to the

number of nuisance dogs reported. In

the last financial year this additional

cost added $26,529 to Council’s

animal management contract cost.

Council responded to nearly 1,300 dog

-related callouts in the last year up until

30 June 2018 with 96 dogs being

impounded.

From Thelma’s

Scrapbook …

The 10 Canine
Commandments

1. My life is likely to last ten to fifteen

years. Any separation from you will

be painful for me. Remember that

when you buy me.

2. Give me time to understand what

you want of me.

3. Place your trust in me - it's crucial

for my well-being.

4. Don't be angry at me for long, and

don't lock me up as punishment. You

have your work, your entertainment

and your friends. I have only you.

5. Talk to me sometimes. Even if I

don't understand your words, I

understand your voice when it's

speaking to me.

6. Be aware of however you treat me,

I'll never forget it.

7. Remember before you hit me that I

have teeth that could easily crush the

bones in your hands, but that I choose

not to bite you.

8. Before you scold me for being

uncooperative, obstinate or lazy,

ask yourself if something might be

bothering me. Perhaps I'm not getting

the right food, or I've been out in the

sun or in the cold too long, or my heart

is getting old and weak.

9. Take care of me when I get old.

You too, will grow old.

10. Go with me on difficult journeys.

Never say: 'I can't bear to watch it', 'let

it happen in my absence' or 'I am tired

of you'. Everything is easier for me if

you are there. Remember, I love you.

co-ordination,

develops the strength and power of

your muscles and boosts your

cardiovascular fitness. Our club nights

are held on Monday evenings. People

of all ages and abilities are welcome in

our small, friendly club. For squash

enquiries, please contact Craig Wallis

COLLAGEN INDUCTION THERAPY (C.I.T)

A couple of months ago I talked about LED light therapy as a modality for skin rejuvenation and healing. Another

scientifically proven modality is Collagen Induction Therapy (C.I.T.) Collagen induction therapy is the most natural,

effective, value for money skin treatment there is when it comes to improving skin health. There is NO injection of any

products into the skin. The treatment is about inducing the skin’s self-repair process by creating precise, micro injuries in

the skin which creates and stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin. This is important because when we

reach 30, our collagen production slows right down so this is a way of reminding the skin to make collagen the way it

used to (when we were younger).

It’s a great treatment for fine lines and wrinkles, skin tone and

texture, loose and sluggish skin, enlarged pores, acne scarring

and pigmentation. The treatment can be done on most body

parts including face, neck, décolletage, hands, stomach, legs

and arms.

A question I always get asked is “when will I see results?”.

Visible results are evident 5 to 8 weeks after the treatment.

However, one of the most exciting things about C.I.T. is that

your results will continue to improve over the next 12 months

as the new collagen and elastin settles, strengthens and

rejuvenates your skin from within.

Before committing to C.I.T. please make sure your skin

therapist does a thorough consultation to determine your skin’s

suitability,

explains to you

what

happens

during the

treatment, guides

you on the before

and after care,

works in a sterile

field during the

treatment.

Another Story: FROM MELTON CLARK

About nineteen twelve

we had a

house party in the old Kaipara home;

among the guests was an innocent

some relative of mothers. It was

decided to also have a picnic lunch at

the mountain creek as we called it, a

lovely creek at the foot of Mount

Pukekeru [sic], and afterwards those

who wanted could climb the hill. Some

of the ladies went in the four-wheeler

buggy while others and the men folk

rode. My cobber and I went straight

across country on foot, our job being to

boil the billies and after that to clear a

path uphill with slashers.

Toward the end of lunch when the odd

scrap of bread had been tossed into the

pool, somebody said, “Look, there

seems to be a fish nibbling that bread”.

There was, and some fish too. The pool

about twenty feet across was very deep

with almost sheer sides. The fish of

course was a fresh water eel, between

three to four feet long, and that’s a lot

of eel! And so, to work. A long stick of

Manuka, a thin line of flax and a bit of

cold mutton taken from a sandwich,

tied on the end, combined with a

minimum of movement, a maximum of

patience and a great deal of hope. The

eel swallows the meat and after some

moments, positioning one’s self like a

golf professional, a huge yank on the

tea tree pole and out comes the eel.

You need a cobber on the bank with a

slasher raised ready to deliver a blow

like a baseball player, and at the same

time trying to make a noise like an old

stump. Otherwise the catch soon slides

back to its home. Mr Innocent wore a

considerable

corporation

(which

perhaps was not his fault), a flowered

waistcoat, and a stiff white collar and

tie, and all this to a picnic, mark you! It

offended my sense of decency, so when

the bloke poked a finger into the

gaping mouth I held my breath and said

nothing. It should be explained that

eels do not have teeth as such but

rather a rough palate something like

sand paper. Naturally, the bigger the

eel the rougher the palate. So, when the

jaws closed, due solely to a muscular

spasm, no harm would have been done

to the finger provided it was not torn

away in sheer panic, which it was.

Some folk who know little have to

learn the hard way.

Mangawhai, as I knew it

until my

late teens, was a two-cottage beach, the

old one belonging to the old man the

other farther up the harbour belonging

to a Captain Olsen. I would guess the

Dad’s property comprised abut twenty-

five acres and ran from the old road

along to the creek. Outside one of the

windows was a huge Aloe with spines

to match, as well as several box thorn

trees which a boy would have good

reason to remember. The rocks around

the first point leading to the Heads

were covered with oysters and our

favourite method of cooking these was

to put them, shell and all, on a wide

iron bars over the embers of an open

fire. We were never short of fish. First

the cockle on a bent pin and a length of

cotton for sprats, then a heavy line

stretched between two Manuka stakes

driven into the sand close to the

channel at low tide with traces hanging

down but kept well off the sand,

otherwise a type of shellfish very

common there would rat the lot. Three

or four snapper (tamure) and perhaps a

kahawai or two was normal for a dozen

hooks. Sharks took the odd one of

course. In those early days the sand

hills increased in height all the way

from the Heads to the existing high

ones opposite Mangawhai, and in

season provided the nesting grounds

for literally thousands of sea birds of

all types. Many times, I have been dive

bombed by the Tern if one should show

interest in the young cowering in the

sand. Interesting little birds with all the

guts in the world.

A costal boat called the ‘Ruby’ ran

onto the rocks on the northern side of

Sentinel Rock before I reached the

mature age of being able to wander

round on my own. In fact, it may have

been before I was born to still further

pollute this world of sin. The old Dad

said that he and Captain Olsen rowed

out and took the crew off. The boat

became a total wreck, but I have a

vivid recollection of seeing the rusted

boilers among the rocks.
