“
Among the archives of the Jaques family
is an account “Bought off W.T.Randle”
addressed to Mr J.Bowmar. Dated August
12, 1924, the account is for £5 lls 9d.
Beneath the list of items is a brief note:
“Kindly let me have a cheque to amount as
Mr Jaques takes over the business today.
Thanking you, W.R
.”*
Four generations of the Jaques family
have run this business and now
celebrate their Four Square 95th
Birthday.
Frank Jaques married Ella Cullen,
pictured, in 1931. Their five sons, Bill,
Brian, Reg, Ken, Alan and daughter
Pam, all worked in the shop, with the
‘boys’ making it their career.
August 1924: Frank and Ella Jaques
established the General Store after
purchasing it from Tom Randall. As
their five sons left school, they
followed into the family business.
1950s and 60s Renovations were
carried out on the 2nd store on site.
November 26 1967: A 740sqm
grocery store was built and opened as
Jaques
Superstore
under
the
Foodstuffs, Four Square banner. The
five sons and their wives carried on the
Jaques family tradition in the new
store.
November 1998: Frank’s son Brian,
wife Gay, their two sons Greg and
Glen, and their wives Paula and
Dalleise purchased
the shop from the
other four brothers.
This was also the
year
Kaiwaka
celebrated
the
‘changing of the
guard’.
Some
wonderful
stories emerged on
this occasion. One
notable from the
brothers memories
- “Geoff Linnell
was
blowing
macropcarpa
stumps over the
road
where
Kaiwaka Clothing
now stands. He put a very generous
gelatine charge under one huge stump,
lined it with hay bales from Archie
McClean’s shed and lit the fuse. The
blast showered hay and chunks of
macrocarpa
all
over
Kaiwaka,
including some impressive holes in the
side of Jaques’ Store”. That is what
you would call a blast from the past!
“In the early days all the products were
on shelves behind the counter. You
would get the ladder, reach for the
items, pack them in paper bags for the
customers and write out the receipt
with a pen.”
March 2005 Glen, Greg, Dalleise and
Paula purchased Brian and Gay’s share
of the Store, Brian to this day continues
to work 3 days a week in store.
September 2014: Greg and Paula
purchased Glen and Dalleise’s share in
the business.
“Our staff have been the heart of our
store and we receive so many positive
compliments about their service and
care for our community,” Paula. and
Gregg.

addition, Michael hopes to encourage
local artists through his connection with
Michael Lett Gallery in Auckland.
Also featured currently at Flaxrose are

KAIWAKA Energy Saving Plan …
FREE PUBLIC ENERGY MEETING
Kaiwaka is a diverse community of many interests and
talents. As a community, many individuals and
organisations try to create a better environment for the
Kaiwaka area. One important aspect of every community is
the use of power and electricity. Increasing electricity prices
and on-going issues with low energy efficiency increased
the FUEL POVERTY in NZ, so it is also important to
evaluate and tackle the future energy problem in Kaiwaka
Community.
According to the GOVT and many Energy Providers
though, the future of power companies looks bright and NZ
must be more “electrified”.
We quote: “More electrification will be needed each year,
electricity prices will increase fast and more than 30 % extra
capacity of power plants will be needed by 2030”.
This future GOVT outlook will only lead to higher
electricity bills and more dependency on the GRID.
Many houses and buildings in Kaiwaka use a lot of
electricity for all the ‘wrong’ reasons. Hot water production
with electrical cylinders is very inefficient, as well as
electrical cooking and electrical home heating. Also heat
pumps in winter are not exactly the cheapest way to heat a
home in the NZ winter climate. Also, there are a lot of
opportunities for energy savings in the Kaiwaka
BUSINESSES.
The Kaiwaka Community can save a lot of electricity
without loss of comfort and reduce the dependence on the
MAINS GRID.
To achieve this unique goal, we will organise a FREE
ENERGY SURVEY for households and business in the
Kaiwaka region. This is important to evaluate the overall
energy use of the Kaiwaka community before efficient
energy savings actions can be defined for different energy
users.
Energy efficiency measures can easily save 10-30 % on the
electricity bill in an average household. Electricity savings
on hot water production, cooking and heating are just the
start. The cream on the cake is a solar hot water system,
state-of-the-art, that can save as much as 70 % on the
electrical hot water bill.
In cooperation with Kaiwaka Can, more ‘efficiency’ actions
are planned in the near future to further reduce the
ecological footprint of the Kaiwaka Community and
become a low carbon community.
Join our Public Free Energy Survey Meeting where we will
explain the many opportunities for energy savings in
Kaiwaka households and businesses.
7th September, 10 till 11am + question time.

At a recent meeting of our Club, we
were fortunate to have one of our
Charter members attend. Colin Smith
is still actively involved in Rotary in
Whangarei. He was able to give us an
impromptu talk on the early years in
our Club and for many of us “newbies”
this was most enlightening.
Some of the projects undertaken in
those early days were the purchase and
development
of
the
Children’s
playground in Hurndall St (the Council
now attends to this);
the foundation of the Retirement
Village on land owned by Lyn Ball’s
parents. The village initially consisted
of six rental units which were
decorated by the Rotarians. This too
was taken over by the KDC, expanded
and then on-sold to the community
trust (compare this to the complex that
is now in place.)
Two natural areas that have been
developed (and still are being
maintained by the club) are Nikau
Grove and Piroa Falls.
And by the time you read this, we will
have celebrated the fiftieth anniversary
of our Charter.
Samuel Orchard a DOE participant at
OHS (who we supported financially)
shared his Outward Bound experience.
Up at 5.30am; warm-up, aerobic run,
swim and cold shower started each day
(temperatures were between 5 and 10°
C). Daily activities included sailing,
white water kayaking and high ropes.
He had two nights out solo camping –
no watches or phones and just a
tarpaulin for shelter. Biggest lesson
learnt – “how easy life at home is.”
We also had our Assistant Governor
Gary Richards visit. Gary and his
wife are both Rotarians and he
currently works as a Health and
Safety advisor. Gary belongs to
the Millwater Club which is a Satellite
club of Orewa. They only meet for one
hour and have a focus on projects and
fundraising. He has suggested that we
engage with local schools doing
projects such as tree planting and
rubbish removal on beaches.
Our community connexions meetings
have opened the door to projects that
we can be involved in, or encourage
collaboration
between
other
community groups. Thank you Gail
Fotheringham for facilitating these. We
appreciate your expertise.
Calf Litter
A reminder, we still have plenty of
bags of calf litter for sale at
Maungaturoto Four Square.
As Rotarians, we enjoy many
interesting guest speakers, working
bees and times of fellowship. If you are
interested in joining us, please get in
touch with any Rotarian.
Maungaturoto and Districts Rotary
in conjunction with Te Roroa and
Roadsafe Northland
Purchasing a car and providing driving
lessons for people who have
their Learner’s licence and are aiming
for their Restricted has been a great
success
(approximately
80%
of
learners have passed their licence on
the first attempt – the norm is 20%.)
However, because this is so popular,
we now need more Driver Mentors.
The requirements are not huge and the
number of clients each Mentor has is a
matter of personal choice (as is the
time that they make available.)

Mangawhai Tracks Charitable Trust
- awesome local volunteers doing great
work for the district, pictured above.
I had the pleasure of being hosted last
week by the hardworking team from
the Mangawhai Tracks Charitable
Trust. One group headed off to do
maintenance of tracks that the Trust
has already developed, whilst I headed
up into the hills with the track building
team.
This group lead by local stalwart
chairman Gordon Hosking, have built
an amazing network of walking tracks
up into the Brynderwyn Ranges.
In an earlier post I discussed the
proposal to create a mountain biking
and walking park on Council’s Lincoln
Downs bush block in Brown’s Rd. The
Trust members are eager to push on
and get this started, but are still waiting
on a formal go ahead from Council. I
will be taking this up with Council’s
CEO again this month to try to get it
started - another great local volunteer
initiative that will benefit the whole
district.
Anyone who would like to be involved
can contact the Trust

Kaipara
Citizen’s
Awards
-
recognising exceptional service to the
community.
I recently had the pleasure of
deliberating on
the
Citizens'
Awards Committee and
last week attended the
presentation ceremony in
Dargaville.
Locals featured heavily
amongst the winners who
were –
John Phillis – Mangawhai
(extensive
service
in
across a wide range of
areas)
Gordon Finlayson – Mangawhai (fifty
years of dedication to surf lifesaving)
Albie
Paton
–
Maungaturoto
(extensive community and sporting
service over many years). I remember
fondly some great rugby games in
Albie’s paddocks which served as the
Maungaturoto rugby fields for a time
back in the 70s and 80s – others who
were around last century probably
recall this too.
Sally
Parkinson
–
Dargaville
(extensive
service to
St
John
Ambulance).
Richard Drake who is soon to leave
the district after significant lifelong
contributions was presented with an
Honorary Citizens Award.

issues that you would like assistance

KAURI REPLANTING PROGRAMME
This initiative, led by The Kauri Museum
Board members, has already donated kauri
trees to several of the local primary schools for
planting in their grounds. Kauri trees are also
being planted at other private land sites and
will soon be planted on public land and road
reserves with the co-operation of Kaipara
District council and NZTA. If you would like
to be part of this programme, now or in the
future, good specimen trees can be purchased
at the museum for you to plant yourself or you
can arrange for the museum to plant them for
you. More information on this exciting
development for the future of the kauri can be
found at www.kaurimuseum.com

LET FOOD BE
YOUR MEDICINE
Nettle – Friend or Foe?
Nettle (Urtica dioca)
Nettle
can
be
considered as natures
multi
vitamin
and
mineral tonic. It is
highly nutritious and
contains almost every
nutrient
the
body
requires
including
B
vitamins,
potassium,
magnesium,
iodine,
silicone, calcium phosphorus, sodium,
iron, vitamin C, A, K, D, essential
amino acids, polyphenols, antioxidants
and beta-carotenes which protect
against cancer.
The highly nutritive properties in Nettle
allow it to be beneficial to regenerate,
strengthen and support the whole body
after a bout of chronic diarrhoea or
heavy menstrual bleeding.
Nettle is a natural anti-inflammatory
which contains histamine and formic
acid.
It is these chemicals which allow great
pain relief by its counter irritant action
for anyone who is dealing with the pain
and
unpleasant
symptoms
of
Osteoarthritis, Rheumatoid Arthritis or
Gout. Using thick gloves cut nettles
back to the base of the stem. Collect 3-
4 bushy stems and whip over affected
painful area. It will initially cause
stinging, but this will soon subside, and
great relief may be found from this
simple action. If you find this treatment
works well for you it is best to continue
3-4 times a week. Then cease treatment
for 3 days before resuming. The break
in treatment is required to allow for
optimum ongoing effectiveness.

Overdue notices
Here's a way to save your friendly
librarian some time in the library, time
better spent doing things like getting
new books ready to put on the shelves
for you to read - have your card set to
receive automated email and/or text
messages.
Contact
the
library
(email
kaiwaka.library@gmail.com,
text to 027 480 6275, or phone 4312
539 during opening hours) with your
name and library card number, and ask
to have this set up. For email notices
we need to know your email address,
and for text messages we need your
mobile
phone
number.
These
automated messages include a courtesy
reminder message 3 days before items
are due back. This is a free service to
library members
Joining the library
Library membership is free to all
residents and ratepayers of Kaipara
District. Go to Enterprise* to sign up
and then bring your ID in to finish your
membership and get your library card,
or if you don't have easy access to the
internet come in and we will fill in the
online form for you. The two forms of
ID are (1) personal identification that
has your name and signature (eg
driver's licence, Community Services
card, or passport), and (2) proof of
address less than 3 months old (eg an
account or invoice, or a
bank statement, or tenancy
agreement).
Your Kaiwaka Library
card can be used at any
library in Kaipara District
(Dargaville
Public,
Paparoa,
Maungaturoto,
Mangawhai), and you can
request items from those
other libraries to be
delivered for you to pick
up from Kaiwaka.
You can also access for
free hundreds of e-books,
and audio books, and
digital magazines, and the
online
Encyclopedia
Britannica, and Generosity New
Zealand's database (information on
where to apply for scholarships and
grants,
for
individuals
and
organisations). Go to Enterprise* to get
started, or come in to the library and
speak to the volunteer on duty for
assistance.
Facebook
Do you 'do' Facebook? Follow the
library
there
(https://
www.facebook.com/Kaiwaka-Library-
291797071494/) to see posts about new
books in the library, book reviews,
competitions, and more. And I post
there when I'm in the library and
available as a Justice of the Peace.
Justice of the Peace Service Centre
Did you know that I'm a Justice of the
Peace? When I (Wendy) am in the
library I hang a sign by the front doors
to indicate that there is a JP available
here. Any time you see that sign, you're
welcome to come in to the library to
access that service, without making an
appointment first. I can witness
signatures, take Statutory Declarations
and Affidavits, and certify copies of
documents. Bring some ID, and if you
need to have copies of documents
certified bring the originals and the
copies with you. I'm usually in the
library three days of the week, and
which specific days that is varies week
to week. Contact me if you want to
check I'll be there on a specific day -
027 480 6275 - or call the library 4312
539. This is a free service.
Book review
Recently I've been reading the Artemis
Fowl series of books by Eoin Colfer.
I'm almost finished the second book as
I type this report.
"Twelve-year-old
Artemis Fowl is a

Artemis doesn't know

These fairies are armed
and they're dangerous.
Artemis thinks he's got
them just where he
wants them, but then
they stop playing by the
rules..." The books are a lot of fun, and
I'm enjoying reading them. They're
Teen Fiction (YP) books and free to
borrow, but because they're new to us
they're located on the Rental Fiction
shelves for exposure for now.
See you in the library, Wendy

The Annual Mangawhai Printmakers
Exhibition opens a new season at
Mangawhai Artists Gallery of 21
exhibitions running from August 2019
until June 2020.
‘Exhibitions change every two weeks’
explains Chris den Hartogh of the
Mangawhai Artists committee who
liaises with all exhibiting artists.
The launch of the new season of
exhibitions coincides with a Call for
Entries into the Kaipara Art Awards,
another annual highlight; open to all
artists in Kaipara who are members of
a Kaipara art group. Judge Dr Carole
Shepheard, ONZM, a former Professor
of Fine Arts at the University of
Auckland, will be awarding prizes in
painting, mixed media, print media,
sculpture and three dimensions and for
an emerging artist. Entries close on 20
September.
With ‘Seven Impressions’ from seven
printmakers you will see seven distinct
forms of printmaking. This year, to
celebrate their third annual exhibition,
Rosina Kamphuis, spokeswoman for
‘Seven Impressions’ said, ‘we artists
set ourselves a challenge – to move
beyond tradition and push boundaries,
to include fresh
perspectives on
printmaking
–
tradition
and
contemporary art practice’.
Each
artist
has
explored
and
experimented technically so there will
be
conventional
two-dimensional
works along with printed papers
presented three dimensionally.
Two
years
ago,
Mangawhai
Printmakers thrilled and surprised
Mangawhai with bright turquoise doors
at the entrance of Mangawhai Artists
Gallery. This year they have decided a
new pop and splash of colour is called
for – visitors will be greeted with a
zing and burst of a new colour ‘Dizzie
Lizzie’ by Resene, as they enter the
Gallery.
Seven Impressions – Mangawhai
Printmakers 3rd Annual Exhibition
with exhibiting artists: Wendy Clifford,
Nicola Everett, Gayle Forster, Jean
Fountain, Chris den Hartogh, Rosina
Kamphuis and Lynn Middleton.
Opens Thursday 22 August at 6pm,
closes Wednesday 4 September.
