TE WAKA RANGIMARIE O KAIWAKA
The blessing and unveiling of Te Waka Rangimarie o Kaiwaka - the beautifully built waka (canoe)
with crafted prows at the front entrance of Kaiwaka School - took place on Monday 25 February.
The visitors were welcomed into the school by Whaea Mina. The ceremony was led by Kaumatua
Ben Hita, with speeches followed by waiata. Young William Reid (
pictured right
) gave the mihi.
Special thanks were given by Josie Gritten, spokesperson for the Board of Trustees, to the many
folk involved with this achievement, especially Benjy Woodman - the designer and constructor,
Founders Day is a special Scouting function to celebrate the
establishment (founding) of Scouting worldwide, held close to the
birthdate of Lord Robert Baden-Powell who began the Scouting
movement.
The day was celebrated by most Scout groups in Northland who
gathered at Kaiwaka Sports Association on Sunday 24 February.
Groups present were from Paihia to Warkworth and included
Kerikeri, Horahora, Shackleton, Kamo, Dargaville, and Kaiwaka-
Mangawhai. There were 118 youth and 50 leaders, adult
helpers and extended family members present.
The day was run by Chris Wallis from Paihia, with the
support of section leaders who ran the activities for each
different level, and the venue was organised by Kaiwaka-
Mangawhai.
The day included the opening ceremony and remembrance of
Baden-Powell. The youth divided into sections for skills and
activities. Keas (the youngest Scouts) did a scavenger hunt,
sculpture and team sports; Cubs did a knot relay and stretcher
race; Scouts erected tents; Venturers constructed play
equipment from pioneering materials for the younger youth
to play on – and everyone got to enjoy the mudslide that had

A youngster told his teacher he'd found a cat, but it was
dead. 'How do you know that the cat was dead?' she asked
her pupil. 'Because I pissed in its ear and it didn't move,'
answered the child innocently. 'You did WHAT?' the
teacher exclaimed in surprise. 'You know,' explained the
boy, 'I leaned over and went 'Pssst' and it didn't move'

“Your Teddybear is a

He’ll love you when you’re tiny,

He’s always there to listen, to lend

No matter how you treat him,

Don’t throw him in

Always take him with

Kaiwaka
Community
Consultation
Hui
has
been
scheduled for 6pm on 18 March at the
Kaiwaka Sports Complex to review the
Kaiwaka Township Improvement Plan,
to give the community an opportunity
to address any issues, and present their
ideas for change. This will allow the
projects and their priority to be
reviewed and the Improvement Plan
updated. Council will then implement
the works in accordance with the
updated Improvement Plan as budgets
allow.
Reserve contributions are funds
collected by Council whenever a new
lot is created. The rationale for this is
that the expanding community will
require new and upgraded facilities for
the new residents living on the new
properties. My financial analysis last
year revealed that $461,000 of reserve
contributions had been collected from
Kaiwaka and surrounds, but that
Council had only budgeted $59,000
worth of projects for Kaiwaka for the
next three years. At this stage the
remainder of those funds are largely
destined for projects elsewhere.
I now have to hand further figures
showing that since July 2018 there has
been a further $85,000 collected from
Kaiwaka and surrounds. I previously
advanced the concept of the reserve
funds being made available for
community groups to apply for to
implement projects. This was to allow
communities to have a better say on
what they wanted, and add value
through
voluntary
input.
This
contestable approach has however
received a lot of resistance on Council
and has not yet been approved.
Therefore I urge you to come to the
Hui with all the ideas and projects that
you would like to have
implemented in Kaiwaka
and the surrounding area
(including Hakaru, Oruawharo, Oneriri
and Brynderwyn). Council staff can
then get some of these projects onto the
works programme and future- proof the
area for the ongoing growth that’s
happening.
Kaiwaka footbridges and linking
footpath
The proposal to add these linkages on
the western side of central Kaiwaka is
to be discussed in consultation with
NZTA during the first week of March.
If you have thoughts on this proposal
please come and have your say at the
Consultation Hui.
Realignment of Oneriri Road
intersection
I have continued to push for options to
move the Oneriri Road intersection
with State Highway 1further south to
get it away from the bridge so that
turning traffic doesn’t block the road.
This is not a high priority for NZTA so
it is something I have asked Council to
lead to find a solution. This will also
form part of the town improvement
plan consultation so please come along
with your thoughts on this too.
If you have any community projects or
issues that you would like assistance
with, I can be contacted on Ph. 021 185
8389 or Cr.Larsen@kaipara.govt.nz.
Check out my ‘The WorkBoot
Councillor’ Facebook page for regular
updates. For any roading maintenance
issues
please
council@kaipara.govt.nz and describe
the defects requiring repair (potholes
etc.) and their locations.

FOUNDERS DAY in KAIWAKA
been created for Illuminate.
A special thank you to Grant and Lyn Parker
who kept their paddock space open for an extra
month, to allow the slide to be used for
Founders Day.
The
closing
ceremony
included
the
presentation of awards for stand-out individuals
on the day, winning Kea
posse; Cub six; Scout patrol;
and Venturer unit present;
and leader awards for those
who have given 5 to 20 years’
service to Scouting.
Family
picnics
were
supplemented by chips and
hotdogs cooked in the kiosk.
Thank you, Lorena Reynolds,
for volunteering her time to
cook, with funds raised from
the food sales going to

Tim Codyre -
the carver, the sponsor - Oneriri
Farm Trust.
Kaumatua Ben Hita and Matua
Paul Tautari guided the children
with the unveiling of the waka’s
name, stern post and the prow,
then the beautifully painted
kowhaiwhai panel at the base of
the waka that has become a
taonga of their families and the
community.
Carver, Tim Codyre, gave a
description with meanings of
the features he had carved in
the tauihu (prow) and taurapa
(stern) - the old and the new,
traditional figures and modern
icons. He explained the seven
figures and spirals of the tauihu
as the seven guiding principles
moving forward in time; the
figures
that
are
playing,
including music; the one
sightless figure showing care
for the disabled; and the upside-
down kete (kit) with a net - to
show the continual replenishing
of the Kaipara Harbour. For the
taurapa: the top has 6 Kaipara
waves and Pukekararo; below 3
clusters patiki notch = flounder;
two ribs = Ira tangata and Ira
Atua ( realm of man and the realm of gods); in between the ribs is the binary
code; the lower figures represent the leader and the pupils; computer mouse -
technology; balls = sport, physical activity, community.
Bruce Ferguson, Kaiwaka-Mangawhai Group
Leader, thanking everyone for coming; Zone
Leader Mike Rowlands; organiser Chris Wallis
and Scouts on parade at Founders Day
Emerson Guenther-Leslie,
Kaiwaka-Mangawhai Cub,
loved the mudslide and had
plenty of turns.
The trucker’s ‘curtain
sides’ made a great surface
for the Scouts’ slide!

Cosmetic Chemistry 101
We are always so careful about what
we put inside our stomachs, we read
the ingredients panel to make sure
there’s no sugar, fat, salts, colourings,
preservatives etc in the foods that we
buy, but when it comes to products
that we put on our face, many of us are
not so discerning...yet. Here are 5
ingredients that are used in skincare
which do not add any value
or nutrition to your skin and my simple
guide on how to recognize them.
1. PERFUME is the number 1 skin
irritant that can cause sensitivity. It is
used to mask unpleasant smells from
other chemical compounds in the
product and as a cue for quality and
efficacy. How many times have you
opened a skincare product, take a sniff,
then exclaim “oh that smells
delicious!”?
2. COLOURANTS - the 2 most
common colours used in skincare are
yellow and pink. Yellow is to mask the
oxidation process, for example if you
cut an apple and leave it for a few
minutes, it oxidises and goes brown.
Same with products, as soon as you
open the lid, the ingredients oxidise
(especially Vit C) and become
brownish so the yellow tint hides this.
Light
pink
connotes
softness,
gentleness and luxury.
3. PRESERVATIVES are nasty, and
you don’t need to be a chemist to spot
a product with preservatives in it. If it
is something that you can open, dip
your fingers in it every day, leave it in
the bathroom and it still looks and
smells delicious after several months,
then you know for sure it has
preservatives in it.
4. MINERAL OILS are sometimes
called paraffin, liquid paraffin, white
oil, paraffin oil or if they want to be
really posh, they call it paraffinum
liquidum. It is a liquid by-product of
refining crude oil to make gasoline. It
gives a feeling of softness and
smoothness because it just glides on
and acts like glad wrap on your skin. It
forms an occlusive film which
can cause the pores to clog
up.
5. EMULSIFIERS – this one
is not so easy to identify as
there are many agents that can
act as emulsifiers. If you look
on the back of your products,
anything with PEG in it is an
emulsifier, other common
ones are triethanolamine and
polysorbates.
Emulsifiers
bind to the skin and
“dissolve” the natural skin
lipids holding the cells
together, which causes the
skin to become “leaky”. The
skin suffers from trans-
epidermal water loss, then the
becomes drier and drier. This
is the beginning of an
impaired skin barrier.
Have fun checking the
ingredients on your products!

WHO WAS
SAINT PATRICK?
St. Patrick was patron
saint and national apostle of
Ireland
who
is
credited
with
successfully
bringing
Christianity
to Ireland.
March 17 is widely accepted as the
date of St. Patrick’s death in A.D. 461.
Was there really a St. Patrick?
Definitely. Did he really drive the
snakes out of Ireland? Probably not,
since snakes weren’t native to Ireland.
St. Patrick was born in Britain as
Maewyn
Succat.
At
age
16
(around A.D. 400), he was kidnapped
from his home on the west coast and
carried off to Ireland to become a slave
who worked as a shepherd. After six
years, he escaped; upon returning
home, he received his call (in a dream)
to preach the Gospel. He spent the next
15 or so years in a monastery,
preparing for his missionary work.
When he became a priest, his name
was changed to Patricius, and
eventually, Patrick. Although some
Christians lived in Ireland at the time,
it was Patrick who spread Christianity
throughout the land and brought an
organized church into existence.
THE SHAMROCK
The shamrock is worn on St. Patrick’s
Day because, legend says, St. Patrick
used its three leaves to explain the
Holy Trinity. (The Trinity is the
Father, the Son, and the Spirit as three
divine persons who are one divine
being [God].) The truth of the St.
Patrick legend, however, is in
question, as there is no direct record
that the saint actually used the
shamrock as a teaching tool.
Note:
The symbol of St. Patrick is a three-
leaf shamrock, not a four-leaf clover.
However, long before the shamrock
became associated with St. Patrick’s Day,
the four-leaf clover was regarded by
ancient Celts as a charm against evil
spirits.

Older rental items now free to
borrow
Items that have been on our rental
shelves with a pink '18' dot on the
spine have now been moved to the free
shelves, and there is no cost to borrow
or renew them. We usually make this
change at the beginning of July each
year, but we've run out of room on the
rental shelves and need to make space
for more new books. There's a list in
the library of all the books affected, if
you want to take a look.
Place a hold on a book from home
Anyone can search our library
catalogue (including the other libraries
in the district) from any online
computer
or
device
through
Enterprise* - check the "Catalogue
Tips" link on the left of that page for
help with that, and there is more
detailed help via the '?' in the top right-
hand corner of the window.
When you have logged in to your
library account you can also place a
hold on any borrowable
item in the district. If it's at
another library, it will be
sent to Kaiwaka (or the
library of your choice) for
you to collect. I will
contact you by text, email
or phone call when it is
ready for you to pick up at
Kaiwaka.
You will also find in the
catalogue books and other
items (DVDs etc) that are
waiting to be processed
ready to go on the shelves.
If a hold is placed on one
of these "available soon"
items,
then
I
know
someone is waiting for it
and it will get a higher
priority to be made ready.
Funding for community projects
Are you, or your group, looking for
funding for a project? As a library
member, you have free access to
Generosity New Zealand, an online
database of funding providers around
the country. They don't give out
money, but they tell you where to find
grants, what the requirements are, and
how to apply for them. Go to
Enterprise*, click on eResources, then
scroll down to Generosity. The first
time you visit Generosity NZ you need
to create a login account. This is a
service provided by Kaipara District
Council - it's your rates in action.
Book review
Anne has recently read Beatrix Potter:
the extraordinary life of a Victorian
genius by Linda Lear. She says
"Having seen the movie of Beatrix
Potters’ life I was interested to read
what the movie may have missed out,
as they often do. As this book is so
well researched it turns out there is a
lot more to reveal about this incredible
woman. The detail of her life can be
accurately recorded through the
hundreds of letters she wrote to her
friends and family. Much like we text
and email today Beatrix would send
out several letters a day over most of
her life and these have been preserved.
She was born to a
privileged family but
had
no
formal
education. Against so
many odds she became
a
well-recognised
amateur
scientist,
illustrator and in later
life a successful sheep
breeder. So much
more of a tale than
Peter Rabbit! The 447
pages of beautifully
composed
details
could have been a trial
to read but the authors’
skill made this book a
pleasure." This book is
on our Non-Fiction
shelves at 920 LEA.
If you would like to write a review for
a book on our shelves, it would be very
welcome. Email it to us, post it, or
drop it in to the library.
See you in the library! ~Wendy

Kaiwaka Bugle - 5 March 2019
Page 19
Just to remind you, these are
all true stories...
At the age of fifteen I got
afterschool employment in a
timber yard. My job was to
gather the fillets strewn
about the yard and stack
them in neat piles three by
three feet. Some days I just
hung about to learn more
about things, of most interest
was the hardware store and
the guys were super friendly.
They had a stray cat that
lived somewhere under the
building.
The incredible part is that the
cat walked on its back legs, much like
when one holds a treat high up for a
dog- it will walk backward like a circus
animal following the treat. The cat had
had both its front legs broken when it
got them caught between some planks
moved unexpectedly by a backing
truck. Obviously because it had to
continue to move the breaks didn’t
heal, the guys fed the cat but even, so it
still caught its share of
mice in the yard.
I once had a similar
incident to this one
from the CJM Clark
memoirs: - “Returning
at lunchtime somewhere
in 1910 from fishing for
bait, having caught a
fresh water eel, we
tossed our lines into the
corner of the kitchen
and swallowed up a bit
of grub. Then we
grabbed our guns and
when
out
after
pheasants. It should be noted here that
there was a horde of half wild cats
around the place, (why the old Dad
allowed this I don’t know.) I should
also state that whereas I
had cleaned my hooks,
my cobber had left a bit
of eel skin on his. When
we returned from the
shoot and opened the
kitchen door a cat took
off
into
the
hall
followed by a rapidly
unwinding line which I
promptly grabbed. The
unfortunate brute had
entered
through
a
window and in chewing
the eel skin had got
itself well and truly
hooked. Not funny,
either for the cat or us who had to get it
free. We closed the door and drew lots
as to who was to go around and grab
the cat when it had been pulled up
close. I lost, and taking a sack went
round and in through the front door.
The unfortunate animal was now only a
few feet from the door jamb, having
been wound in, and was spinning
cartwheels and hand- springs like
nobody’s
business.
Naturally we could not
shoot it inside with the
twelve bore. Fortunately,
several of my birthdays
came at once because the
cat tore loose, took off
with
a
terrific
acceleration through the
hall and dining room and
right
through the glass of the
French doors. Neither of
us felt too happy about
that episode but cheered
up a bit the next day
when we saw the victim of our
carelessness in fair shape except for
some bad swelling of the jaw.
