RED CROSS

The Kaiwaka Memorial Hall was the scene of a Civil Defence Centre on

Saturday 24th August. The centre was set up in a joint exercise by Red Cross

Disaster Welfare Support Team (DWST) volunteers from Whangarei and

Auckland. The teams were doing an exercise to practice setting up a centre

which can look after evacuees in an emergency. The centre was set up with 30

beds, first aid, psychosocial support and basic catering facilities.

Victoria Harwood, Deputy Team Leader of Whangarei DWST - pictured below,

organised the exercise to enable neighbouring regional teams to work together

and practice their skills.

In the afternoon teams also practiced some of their field work from their

Incident Control Point within the large Red Cross truck, teams extracted

casualties, set up a radio repeater, carried out a disaster preparedness leaflet drop

and practiced first aid skills. The NZ Red Cross work closely with Civil Defence

Emergency Management in NZ as a support agency in disasters.

KAIWAKA ACTION 24/8/2019

Neighbours woke to the noise of a fire

and were astounded to see the large

flames and how quickly they engulfed

the house on Settlement Road.

The fact that it was a very calm night

and all vegetation was damp was a

relief for the neighbouring properties.

Firefighters managed to extinguish a

fire that engulfed the rental property in

Kaiwaka but could not save the house.

Emergency services received a call

about 4.35am on Saturday and fire

appliances from Kaiwaka, Mangawhai,

Maungaturoto and Wellsford rushed to

the scene on Settlement Rd.

Kaiwaka Fire Chief John Bowmar said

the house was fully involved when fire

crews arrived.

Nobody was in the house at the time.

The photo below shows some of the

devastation.

RED JOAN

Friday 6 September 7.30pm (M)

Inspired by an extraordinary true

story, ‘Red Joan’ is the taut and

emotional discovery. Joan Stanley

(Dame Judi Dench), lives in contented

retirement. Then suddenly her tranquil

existence is shattered as she's

shockingly arrested by MI5. For Joan

has been hiding an incredible past; she

is one of the most influential spies in

living history... Cambridge University

in the 1930s, and the young Joan

(Sophie Cookson), a demure physics

student, falls intensely in love with a

seductively

attractive

Russian

saboteur …”

KAIWAKA Future Energy Outlook Plan …

FREE PUBLIC ENERGY MEETING

How will the future energy outlook for Kaiwaka look

like?

According to the GOVT and many Energy Providers, 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” .

Many houses and buildings in Kaiwaka use a lot of

electricity for all the ‘wrong’ reasons BUT the Kaiwaka.

Community can save a lot of electricity without loss of

comfort while reducing the dependence on the MAINS

GRID.

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 Outlook Plan Meeting …

where we will explain the many opportunities for energy

savings in Kaiwaka households and businesses.

DATE: 7th September 2019. Time: Start at 10 till

DAFFODIL DAY: KAIWAKA

WELL DONE KAIWAKA!!! Due to our 20 amazing volunteers who were

willing to volunteer 2 hours of their day to man the two collection points and

your generosity as a community, we raised $1,577.80 for our Northland Cancer

Support Services! Thankyou s-o-o-o much lovely people!

This money, among many other free services, helps to enable cancer patients to

have free accommodation at Auckland’s’ Domain Lodge while having cancer

treatment. Along with lessening the effects of cancer through funding of our

wonderful support nursing people, 20% of the total Northland collection goes

towards research as well.

Also a HUGE THANKYOU to Jaques Foursquare and La Nonna Bakery for

being our collection locations and The Coffeepot Cafe, Kaiwaka Caltex and

St.John Op. Shop for looking after our little Daffodil Collection boxes through

the last 3 weeks.

Bless you all Heaps, Lynne Coates, Kaiwaka Daffodil Day Co-ordinator.

KAIWAKA

WEATHER

Yahoo winter has gone.

Now you can look

forward to Spring.

Our winter treated us rather kindly

until August then it turned up or down

should I say the temperatures. It got

bitterly cold. Sorry I don’t keep the

temperatures although I probably

should but hey, I am not a farmer or

have to get out of bed early to read the

thermometer. The wind chill factor or

just plain cold tells me how cold it is.

We did not get the frosts to kill off the

bugs like Green Vegetable beetles and

those white butterflies which hung

around very late this year.

Already we are having warnings of a

hot summer. The sun is warming up

very fast now if today is anything to go

by. Spring seems to be tracking very

nicely and our Magnolia and Kowhai

trees seem to have flowered on time.

Lots of Daffodils and Freesia and

Jonquils etc.

Okay. At our house this August we

had 147mm and 2018 we had 86mm.

For 2019 Tony at Parekura Oneriri

recorded 117mm.

Our wettest August since 1987 was

1987 with 547mm, and our driest

August since1987 was 2005 with.

50mm.

Our first 8 months of 2019 we had

724mm and for 2018 we had 1347mm.

oh dear what a difference. You will

probably need another water tank for

summer this year.

Our wettest first 8 months since 1987

was 2018 with 1368mm and our driest

was 1987 with 547mm.

We had rain on 21 days in August

2019 and 2018 we had rain on 12 days.

We had those terribly cold south east-

to-south west winds that were terribly

cold. Some of the showers almost like

snow.

That waterfall on the Brynderwyn is

hardly falling very much. It goes well

when we get some rain and does not

seem to maintain its flow for long.

Make the most of the Spring weather

and get out there.

Just think - You are on a horse

galloping at a constant speed. On your

right is a sharp drop off and on your

left is an elephant travelling at the

same speed as you. Directly in front of

you is another galloping horse but your

horse is unable to overtake it. Behind

you is a lion running at the same speed

as you and the horse in front of you.

What must you do to safely get out of

this highly dangerous situation? Get

your drunk self off the Merry-go-

round.

Yes, well our

weather is a bit of

a merry-go-round

at times. Take

care out there.

ON THE SHORES OF GOLD

Tell me again of tales of old, acted out on the

shores of gold

There was a time when kauri giants lined the

bays

Axe and saw took them all away

Land left bare and waters plundered

Tangata whenua were torn asunder

Memories lost and buried under the shores of

gold.

Settlers came and settlers went

Names of places changed and meanings

forgotten

Some we know and some we don’t

History wrote of men seeking gum, of saw

millers and farmers, Living life’s dramas

Taming the land on the shores of gold

Fish factories appeared and took all the mullet

No kai left for the gullet

Bones were ground in Colbeck’s mill and the

soil did they till

Cattle and pigs ran wild in the ever-shrinking

bush

Man’s wrath made sure payment was a lead pill

Masefield’s three children were lost and

drowned by the shores of gold.

Spade and hoe dug the drains in the hope to

tame the rains

Tokatoka swamp vast and wide

Sliced up into a green divide

Grazed by Jersey and Friesian cattle beast

Said to be better than a bog at least on the

shores of gold.

Now I stand on Whakapirau Beach looking out

to beyond eye reach

Gulls cry an unspoken tale of journeys taken -

some nevermore

Baches line the shore and kids lean out a door

I take my leave and turn away

I’ll be back another day on the shores of gold.

GROWING GREAT GARDENERS

A national search is on for young kiwi gardeners who have a

passion for plants and dig gardening.

The Yates Budding Young Gardener competition opens

1st September to children aged 5-15 years, with all levels of

capability, who just love spending time in the garden

growing things. The lucky winner will become a Yates

ambassador for one year and win an amazing family trip to

Hawaii.

Judge and gardening guru, Ruud Kleinpaste said learning how to garden sets children up

for life. “It is becoming a fading skill with many of today’s kids not knowing what a

seed is, or where potatoes come from. As our lives get busier and more complex, the art

of gardening becomes more important. Producing food is one obvious benefit but

caring for a plant can teach children about responsibility as well as science, nature and

nutrition. Taking time to learn the basics of gardening brings so many rewards,” said

Mr Kleinpaste.

All entrants will need to complete the entry form,

answer a number of gardening questions and either

submit a short video sharing their garden and what

they get up to in it or photographs.

Seven regional winners will be selected by the judges

and they will win a massive Yates Budding Young

Gardener Hamper valued at over $300. An overall

winner will be selected from the seven regional

winners and will be off to Hawaii with their family.

The five-day visit will include flights, accommodation

and a rental car plus tickets to some of the islands

wonderful natural attractions. The grand prize also

includes spending a day in your garden with a Yates

horticulturist picking up some great skills and tips.

To find out how to enter and terms and conditions

visit

https://www.yates.co.nz/budding-young-

gardener/. Entries close Sunday 6th October 2019

and the grand prize winner will be announced during

National Gardening Week (21-28 October).

Good news for Kaiwaka reserves

In earlier columns I have reported on

the large amounts of funds collected

from development from the greater

Kaiwaka area from development. After

a couple of years of persistence

including a full policy review, I am

pleased to announce that some funding

is finally coming this way. Earlier this

year a budget allocation of $150,000

was made for Kaiwaka reserve

projects.

At last week’s Council meeting the

investigation and delivery of two

projects was approved.

The two projects are

–

⚫

Installation of the Kaiwaka Fitness

Trail

equipment

(approximately

$60,000).

⚫

Development of the Rangiora Road

Reserve and Boat Ramp (budget to be

determined).

I am also looking to see maintenance

and improvements to the parking areas

at the Kaiwaka Sports Association and

am working on that this week.

This is a good start, but

there

have

been

significantly more funds

collected locally. I hope

to see more of these

funds used locally over

the next couple of years. I am

interested to hear what locals would

like.

What would you like to see developed

in the Kaiwaka/ Hakaru/ Oneriri/ and

Oruawharo area in the way of reserves

and recreation? Please let me know.

If you have any community projects or

issues that you would like assistance

with, I can be contacted on Ph. 021 185

8389

jlarsen@kaipara.govt.nz.

Check out my ‘The WorkBoot

Councillor’ Facebook page for regular

updates.

For any roading maintenance issues

please email council@ kaipara.govt.nz

and describe the defects requiring

repair (potholes etc.) and their

locations.

KAIWAKA SCHOOL PHOTOS

Our 150 years celebration planning is going well, in readiness for the reunion

celebration at Labour Weekend 2020.

Please do you have any old photos of the school buildings and grounds over the

years. These are to put onto our timeline. All members of our community are

welcome to come up to school to help us out with the timeline, where we want

to indicate significant events in the school community over the 150 years.

For example, does anyone have photos of

the building of the school swimming pool

and the later extension? Or school concerts

and calf club days, as pictured below.

Left: This cartoon …“has been drawn and

donated by Hans Haeusler who graduated to

school teaching from the school at Kaiwaka

in the years 1911-16, and over the years

following became one of the foremost

cartoonists in the country. In his memoirs of

his younger days at the school house at

Kaiwaka, Hans recalls coming by rail to Te

Hana, then the rail head, in 1910 and thence

by “road” to the school residence at Kaiwaka,

a road on paper only; deep mud and no sign

of metal was the order of the day. To quote

Hans Haeusler, “I carried my bicycle from Te

Hana to the school at Kaiwaka, I had brought

it from the Waikato where we were last at a

schoolhouse. I recall coming to Ross Hill and

talking with Frank and Dick Leslie and

Nobby Keith, who were clearing bush; and how they looked at me, a young chap

carrying a bicycle; it was impossible to ride on these roads…”

History of Education in the Kaiwaka District ~ 100 Years of Progress 1870-

mother who was head

teacher 1910-1917.

Spring is a great time of year. The

leaves come back. The blossom starts.

And of course there’s some rain in the

mix as well.

Kaiwaka Can feels like it is getting

close to spring. There are signs we

might see a bit of action on some of the

dreams and plans our community has

had for a long time. But there is always

delay, always something to slow things

down and we are working through

some of this at the moment.

Anyway, some of the things

beginning to move.

We have fresh interest in getting some

of the lighting under way. We have

good people with the skills to make it

happen. We have ideas and also have

some of the interesting frames left

from the height of our ‘little town of

lights’ fame. We have a bit of money

to use. So hopefully that will lead to

results.

Kaiwaka Central has a few signs of

life too. Council plans to do some

geotech work on the areas affected by

our plans – mainly round the southern

bridge. A group is also scoping out and

costing what it would take to get a

walking bridge across the river on the

western side, to connect Kaiwaka

together a bit more. A new concrete

path has gone in under the bridge - see

picture below.

Eric Jansseune brought us up to date

with his plans for a power solutions

meeting based on solar solutions.

There is a public meeting on this

September 7th in

the Memorial Hall

– a must attend for

anyone

who

watches

their

power bill closely.

It was good to

have a report from

the

school

including the news

their

150th

anniversary will

Labour

weekend next year.

Quite

achievement!

The environmental

group does a great

job working quietly

to make our place safer and greener

with special emphasis on major weed

pests and also predator control.

The reserve contribution fund has

been the topic of a lot of discussion

recently as we try to understand

the relationship between what our

district has taken in by way of reserve

contribution payments and what is left

and available for our town and

surrounds to use. Three key groups in

Kaiwaka are working with groups from

Mangawhai to try and get clarity.

The aim of the reserve contributions

is to increase the quality and scope of

reserve and recreational facilities to

compensate for population growth. As

the second fastest growing area in

Kaipara, we certainly have the need for

an upgrade of what is available to us.

Watch this space for developments

especially as local body elections are

very close.

We are working to establish even

greater collaboration between the

various organisations in Kaiwaka so

that we have maximum impact for our

community. And part of that is the

involvement of individuals and we

enjoy the steady flow of new faces in

our work.

We look forward to seeing your face

on a third Wednesday, 5.30pm at

Archie Bull Hall.

From Thelma’s Scrapbook …

He was 28 when we first met and for him it was love at first sight.

It took me a little longer to realise that I loved him as I loved no

other. It didn’t occur to us that our time together would be short.

Ruggedly handsome, he worked underground at the pit and, like many
miners he delighted in sunlight, fresh air and open country. We went for
long walks together, in search of the first catkins, bluebells and acorns.
He believed that the strong should protect the weak and, although he was
tough, he could be wonderfully gentle. He was devoted to his dog, his pit-
pony and his blind bantam hen.
He was killed by a roof-fall when he was 33 and I was 5 ½, but our love
warms me still.
My first love was, of course, my father.

MATAKOHE SAWMILLING:

END OF AN ERA

So this month [August] marks the end

of an era, as Marek Weber cuts his last

lengths of timber, cleans his last saw

and serves his last loyal customers.

This is a story written by Marek's

mother June Weber, who sadly passed

away last month, aged very nearly 95.

It has been published by the Matakohe

Messenger previously, so please

forgive us for publishing it again.

“A long history of sawmilling

In August 1955 the Weber Sawmill on

Tinopai Rd was opened. This year the

family celebrate 60 years of operation.

This is quite an achievement, but when

you look back at the history of the mill,

you discover that Webers have been

sawmilling in the Matakohe area for

longer than that. In the early 1900s the

sawmill began its life as a portable unit

owned and operated by Bruno Weber

of Hukatere.

It was taken to farms in the district to

cut kauri stumps, natives and other

trees, until it became redundant about

the 1930s, when it was stored away.

When Bruno’s son Ken returned from

overseas at the end of the war in 1945

he bought a farm “Te Kawau” from the

Thomas Coates estate. Ken and Bruno

re-established the mill there to cut

the many mature pines and

macrocarpa on the farm into timber,

which found a ready sale. Farmers

would also bring their logs to be

sawn to suit their needs. Ken

married June Mockett in 1946 and

eight years later, with four children

and schooling and transport to

consider, they bought the two

sections at Matakohe by the Te Mate

o Te Tawa creek (on Tinopai Rd, the

current site of the sawmill). Ken,

with his fathers help, built a house

and once again re-established the

mill. The mill opened on the 12th

August 1955 and is still in operation,

now owned and operated by Ken’s

son Marek. Marek took over the mill in

1976.

With a local history this extensive, it is

only right that it is preserved in the

local museum, so if you head into The

Kauri Museum you can visit Marek

working in the sawmill exhibition. The

vertical breakdown saw that Marek is

operating was located in the mill until

it was replaced with the saws that are

still in use today.”

Marek is still at the mill, tidying up,

talking to those same loyal customers,

but it wont be for much longer. He is

heading towards retirement finally - a

chance to go fishing (though without a

boat it is difficult), hunting and spend

time with friends and family.

Matakohe Messenger, Editor L Cates.

RICK STOLWERK

Candidate NRC :

Coastal South

I am passionate about our Northland

environment, protecting it as well as

encouraging sustainable economic

development in the region. I believe in

healthy communities, which support

one another. I understand the pressures

on the environment and on people.

Environmental, economic and commu-

nity integration is vital.

This regional council has achieved a

great deal in improving water quality,

controlling flooding and pest manage-

ment, however the job has only just

begun. I see my role in the next term

of council as assisting in building on

these achievements. One way these

ambitious targets can be achieved by

the incoming council is by further sup-

porting a strong community base from

which to move forward, especially in

the eradication of pests.

Without community support this re-

gion will not move forward economi-

cally or ecologically. It is paramount

that our ‘Volunteer Army’ of 7000+

community members is supported, en-

couraged and most importantly in-

creased across all council work

streams. The acceptance of ‘Citizen

Science’ as a way forward is produc-

ing impressive results and engaging

ever increasing members of our com-

munity. As individuals we cannot

achieve these ambitious targets, in-

creased council supported and coordi-

nated community initiatives are essen-

tial in moving Northland forward.

Alongside Britain and Australia, New Zealand was one of the first countries to

become involved in the global conflict precipitated by Germany’s invasion of

Poland on 1 September 1939.

When formal advice of the expiry of the ultimatum was received the acting

prime minister, Peter Fraser, issued a statement confirming that New Zealand

was at war: “This is not an occasion for many words; it is a dark day in the

history of the world … It is with deep regret and sadness that I make this

announcement on behalf of the Government, and the people will receive it with

similar feelings. That will not, however, affect the determination of both

Government and people to play their part.”
