SCOUTS ON SUNDAY

Recently our local Scout Group held a Sunday Service in

Kaiwaka’s St.Pauls Church.

The theme of the service was Illumination, led by Derek Christensen. The

congregation were asked to bring along different types of lights to display.

There was interactive discussion about the various sources of light, which led to

the explanation that Jesus is the light of life, each of us is different, what kind of

light-from-within will you shine in the world? The Cubs and Scouts were fully

involved in the discussion, and colour parties. Cubs Atariki Ashton-Videla and

Callum Booth both did themselves proud giving clear Bible readings. The songs

also held the theme of light and were

accompanied by guitar and African drums.

On behalf of Group Leader Bruce, I gave a

report on the Kaiwaka-Mangawhai Scout

group, outlined some changes within

Scouting NZ, and explaining what will

happen during Illuminate 2018. (I am

group secretary).

A shared morning tea followed, with some

plates being taken down to the group

installing the new playground fence

afterward. Some of the children had

grandparents supporting them.

Hamish is the only Venturer from Kaiwaka

who will be attending the Scout Venture

Illuminate - to be held in Kaiwaka January

2019.

At the rehearsal on Thursday evening we

invested new Scout leader Phil Welten and

new Cub Liam Lusty. ~ Lindell

KAIWAKA

WEATHER

Hello folks, the last day of winter and

it is raining.

I do not put today's rain in the weather

report as when the rain is read each day

it is read in the morning, so today's rain

goes in tomorrow's reading. That is

not my idea as that is how it is done.

Another cold August and everybody

shivering with those cold southwesters

and icy cold showers and not forgetting

those bitterly cold winds. Also, we had

a few thunderstorms to boot. It is sad

to watch the cows in the paddocks

plodding around up to their bellies in

mud - that is when it is good to be a

light animal you do not sink down too

much into the ground. We did have a

few nice sunny days early on in the

month. Awesome to see the baby

animals enjoying them.

Niwa is forecasting another El Nino

summer though not as intense as others

we have had. Predictions for the next 3

months are average temperatures for

most of the country and the likelihood

of a slow transition toward El Nino

which could become established over

N.Z. by March.

Our weather we recorded was August

2018 we had 86mm rain and August

2017 we had 127mm.

The first 8 months of 2018 we had

1347mm and 2017 we had 1368mm.

Our wettest August since 1987 was

1989 with 318mm and the driest was

2006 with 52mm.

Our wettest 8 months since 1987 was

2018 with 1368mm and the driest was

1987 with 547mm.

‘How many animals of each kind did

Moses take aboard the Ark?’ None,

Moses did not board the Ark. ‘What is

a Humbug?’ No, it is a bug that cannot

sing.

Take care out there and enjoy the

Spring starting tomorrow. Do not

forget that Daylight Saving starts on

the 30th September. Bev.

Well here we are again at long

last, approximately 12 members

attended our July meeting,

unfortunately no one was able to

attend Birkenhead’s Birthday on the

17th, however talking of Birthday's,

congratulations to Francie and Hazel

who both had Birthdays in July, hope

you had a great day. Didn't realise they

were twins!! Not terrible but Lovely!!

Unfortunately, the tripe dinner wasn't

supported as much as it usually is,

which is a shame, many thanks to the

cooks, and I guess it was "all the more"

for those who did attend.

We are sorry to hear our Secretary Jan

and her husband Len are not well also

June is having trouble with her eyes,

we hope you are all soon well again

and anyone else who is not feeling the

best. The good news is that Nev and

Ann's Grandson Chris is making a

miraculous recovery, thank you to you

all who have showed so much love and

concern during this worrying time.

We have quite a few invitations on the

horizon, Franklin Birthday on 10th

September, Kaikohe AGM on 15th

September, the trip to Whangarei to the

musical on 21

September - ring Trish

Black 4314154 for more info, Waipu's

Birthday on 24th September, and the

most important of all our own Hakaru

63rd Birthday on 25th October, so

come on Girls Get your "Glad Rags"

out and join Lena- we can assure you

of a good time. Please ring Lena on

4315034 if you wish to go to the other

functions (all the more the Merrier).

Our next meeting will be on Thursday

27th September, let’s have a really

good attendance. See you there at

Hakaru RSA at 1.15 p.m. Visitors

welcome. ~ Cheers, Ann

OTAMATEA-EX NETBALL SEASON

Otamatea-Ex 3 played Matakana

Hawks for the B grade 5th and 6th

position. After a couple of late season

injuries they called on two new players

and combined well to put Matakana

under pressure. Unfortunately, they

weren’t able to come away with the

win with the final score being 26-20 to

Matakana.

Otamatea-Ex 2 played off for 3rd and

4th in the Premier Grade against

Ruggals. This was the first time in

Otamatea-Ex history that both teams

were in Premier play offs. The

previous week they had lost to Ruggals

by 5 so they knew it was going to be a

tough game but were in for a shot at

winning. A few key player changes for

Ruggals meant Otamatea-Ex were up

against it from the start but with

continued determination and good

game

play

meant

they

really

challenged Ruggals. Unfortunately, the

new tall timber in the shooting circle

for Ruggals proved the difference and

Otamatea-Ex lost 49-33 but should

hold their heads up at the never give up

attitude they showed.

Otamatea-Ex 1 played off for the 2018

premier title against Naumai (

pictured

below - Naumai in bibs)

. The previous

week Otamatea-Ex had lost by a big

margin so knew they had to put their

best game out on court if they had a

chance at winning. With just 7 players

for the night so couldn’t afford any

injuries. The game did not start well

with Naumai scoring the first five goals

unanswered, but Otamatea-Ex pulled it

together and managed to be just eight

down at quarter time. With a change at

mid-court Otamatea-Ex started to put

Naumai under pressure and got more

ball into their shooters which they

converted to win the second quarter

and be down by five at half time.

Ocean Shadbolt has shown a huge

improvement this season and managed

to upset the feeding into Naumai’s

shooting circle picking up tips and

loose ball. Naumai continued to use

their full bench and made changes,

their fitness and ability to play at speed

started to pay dividends. They showed

strength in all areas of the court

picking up intercepts in their defensive

end and converting it into points as

their shooters were in good form. The

connections between mid-court and

shooters was difficult for Otamatea-Ex

to stop. Naumai continued to pull away

in the fourth quarter showing the

quality side that they are winning by

11. Otamatea-Ex 1 should be proud of

the fight they showed and game they

put out on court.

Otamatea-Ex Netball Club would like

to thank our supporters this season

especially sponsors the Three Furlongs

Bar & Grill and Brogan Builders.

Mangawhai Artists Gallery

The Diverse Creative Universe

Angela Buchanan and Edie Chappell

Opens Thursday 30 August 6pm

Two artists combine in this exhibition

expressing their diverse creative

techniques and subject matter with

paint and mixed media. Abstract design

by Edie Chappell sits alongside formed

designs and clean lines by Angela

Buchanan, pictured below.

In her out-of-world vision, Edie

encourages viewers to see, to look and

be intrigued by the visions they see.

Loving semi abstract landscapes, Edie

mixes both smooth work and a chunky

look, exploring different subject

matters.

In this exhibition, Angela Buchanan

produces paintings with formed lines

and clean designs with a comical edge

and local scenic, photographic print

works.

Angela established her art career on

completing her apprenticeship as a

traditional

sign

writer,

making

traditional hand painted signs using

multiple techniques and in varying and

sometimes challenging positions and

places. More about the Artists:

mangawhaiartists.co.nz/edie-chappell;

The Diverse Creative Universe is at

Mangawhai Artists Gallery until

Tuesday 11 September. 10am to 3pm

The past fortnight has seen a lot happen

for Kaiwaka Can. Normally we report

just once a month but this time it is

worth talking about some recent

events.

A very colourful playground

We hope you have all seen the new

playground fence next to the Memorial

Hall. This has been waiting in the

wings for a couple of years but now it

is a reality. Thanks to a huge effort on

the part of Wiremu Paikea assisted by

some great sponsors and volunteers, we

have greater safety, more colour and

more character in the playground.

Already there have been many positive

comments on the difference it makes.

A new logo

As you can see, we have a brilliant new

logo for Kaiwaka Can. Designed by

Rosie Louise, it features both

Pukekaroro and a kereru. Thank you

so much Rosie. It gives us greater

identity.

A major presentation

A team from Kaiwaka Can presented

the Kaiwaka Central project to Council

members recently. The presentation

included an excellent power point of

the project’s features, a spoken

commentary and a full written report

and cost breakdown to match. It was

very well received and generated good

questions and interest. There are

however still challenges ahead as we

sort through funding, management and

timing. We hope to be able to show

the project to the community at a

community meeting in October that

reviews the Kaiwaka Township

Improvement Plan.

Steps towards Incorporation

We plan at our next regular meeting to

begin collecting membership signatures

for our foundation membership.

We are working on the required rules

and will make application for

incorporation as soon as that is

completed. We will use the logo on

the common seal required for an

incorporated society. We are also

using this step to increase our

membership. There is no limit to the

membership we can have, and we want

people to use Kaiwaka Can to make

their own voice heard in our

community.

We meet every month, but we don’t

require you to come every month but

invite you to come with needs and

viewpoints, to use the gifts that you

have in projects alongside others and to

help us represent the great diversity of

talents, needs and interests of our local

people.

The next regular meeting is Wednesday

September 19

, 5.30pm at the Archie

Bull Hall.

If you are interested in becoming part

of us, you can contact me at the email

address below.

Kaiwaka Bugle - 4 September 2018

Page 15

I’ve had at least 3 new clients in the last

2 weeks ask me why it is that their skin is

so dry, and no matter how much

moisturizer they put on, it still feels dry,

sensitive and irritated.

In my consultation, I ask the following

questions, so if you suffer from the same

issue, perhaps the following will help

determine the cause:

1. Do you work in an office with air-

conditioning? Do you sleep with the heat

pump on?

Have you been sitting close to the fire?

All of these will draw moisture from the

skin like a dehumidifier!

2. Do you use a cleansing gel or soap that

lathers or foam? The

surfactant

the

cleanser

will

stripping the skin of its

natural barrier, leaving

the skin taut and dry.

Healthy skin should

have a light layer of oil

(called the acid mantle)

our

natural

protection. Without this

protective layer, we

suffer

from

trans-

epidermal water loss,

leaving

the

skin

dehydrated

and

matter how much water

you take on, the skin

will continue to lose

water.

3. Do you use a toner

that contains alcohol or

is astringent? As this

also strips the skin’s

natural oil.

4. Do you use a

moisturiser

that

contains emulsifiers or

mineral

oils?

Unfortunately,

99%

moisturisers

contain

emulsifiers which

will

create

“washout effect”

as they exacerbate

trans-epidermal

water loss and

lipid dryness.

5. Does your diet include a lot of

essential fatty acids contained in oily

fish, avocado and olive? Not enough

healthy fats in the diet will cause your

skin to become lipid dry which then

cause dehydration.

6. Are you on medication? As certain

meds affect the skin’s barrier and

hydration.

7. What’s your age? Unfortunately,

everything slows down when we age

including our sebum production, our skin

cells desquamation process causing water

loss and build up of dead cells that leave

the skin feeling thicker and looking dull.

If you are doing everything correctly and

still suffer from dry, sensitive, irritated

skin, then please seek advice from a skin

therapist as healthy skin should be thick,

supple and a little dewy. Your skin

therapist should also be able to help you

identify ingredients in your products that

are having a negative effect on your skin

barrier.

Another Memoir from CHARLES MELTON

CLARK

Throughout New Zealand in the

Second World War years, a rather

pathetic quasi military organization

called the Home Guard which came

into being. Melton being a rifleman

back from being wounded was asked if

he would form a sniper squad, the first

to be formed in Auckland. It became

known as Clark’s Bastards, a title of

which they all were inordinately proud.

The O.C. had arranged a night attack

on our position in West Tamaki Road

by another company. Gerry S who was

Brigade Major, decided to blow out

with some of his staff and have a look

at what was going on. When fairly

close to our H.Q. he caught up with

one of our buck privates, an ex-war

Scot who was usually fairly drunk, or

on the way to reaching that happy

condition on such occasions, and who

had been sent back from our line as a

runner with a message. Gerry stopped

him and asked if he could tell him

where our H.Q. was, to which Scotty

replied, “Eye I can, but Ey won’t”.

Gerry was a good soldier enough to

congratulate Scotty on adopting the

correct procedure, and then explained

who he was and why he was there and

repeated his request. Scotty then said,

“If yea bl--- well want to find out

where our Bl—xx H.Q. is, you can

Bl—xx find it yersell”, and slipped

through the fence and disappeared in to

the darkness. On relating the incident,

the following morning at Army HQ

with some glee (as I said he was a good

soldier) Gerry S asked who the Home

Guardsman was. “Oh, one of those

bastards of Clark’s of course. The

name stuck!

A further pleasing incident happened

on another night stunt. We had in the

battalion a certain Captain (temporary)

who was in charge of the H.Q

Company. He was I believe a

Recruiting Officer in the first show and

was for some reason, and with some

justification I must admit, constantly

trying to put me back on the straight

and narrow path (military-wise) with

limited success.

Among other faults I was accused of

failing dismally to observe normal

security measures by neglecting to

place a guard over our fleet of parked

vehicles when we were training. My

excuse was that my boys were being

taught to fight, not to do sentry duty

fell on deaf ears as far as he was

concerned. It had been my custom to

hold free and open discussions with my

chaps on the various aspects of our

training methods and I probably

mentioned the attack on our lack of

security during one of these talks.

Anyway, one of my section leaders

(unbeknown to me) decided to save the

honour of our unit on the night in

question. With two cobbers he ferreted

out where the H.Q. Company had

dossed down for the night, lifted two

bottles of beer which had been placed

on the tail-board of a truck to cool,

found the Captain snoring his head off

on a camp stretcher in a shed he had

annexed for his exclusive comfort (we

got what sleep we could on the bare

ground) and pinned a note onto his

chest which read, ”Its three o’clock in

the morning and your bloody throat’s

been cut.” To my sorrow his nibs never

raised the question of security again.
