ALBERTLAND AND DISTRICTS MUSEUM

If you were interested in the local photographs highlighted last month

on our Facebook page Albertland Heritage Centre, and website

https://albertlandmuseum.co.nz/ I am pleased to say that the Museum

does make copies available if you find something about your family

or district and would like one to keep. Check out the many others on the

website.

Many of the photos show that things don’t really change that much down the

years - this time of year means calves, lambs etc being raised for local school

shows – thought the ones in this

photo, pictured right would be for

the family.

Local families of the past are the

focus of the new Calendar available

for 2020, including Marshes,

Hargreaves, Parkers and others,

fascinating to look back at, and

available online or at the Museum.

The Albertland Museum is on Port

Albert Road right next to the

Wellsford Library. Their archives

include much of the Oneriri

and Oruawharo history too.

FLOATING ON AIR

Twenty-three thousand kilometres brought Wolfgang Hollmer to the

top of the Brynderwyn Hills in this photograph for the future.

Predictions are that with growing dislike for plastics (and the oil industry that

produces them), cycle tourism will be a

more popular model for visiting our

country - and will do more for small

towns and villages like Kaiwaka than

the hotel-and-bus or campervan models.

Wolfgang,

76-year-old

former

newspaper layout man from Köln (aka

Cologne), had ridden 5000km on his

electric bike round our islands to

Brynderwyn after jetting 18.174km to

be with his Christchurch-based daughter

and her Kiwi family.

His travels with the WarmShowers

Cycle Network may seem risky as he

shares roads with cars, vans and trucks

but regional council 'cycle network'

plans well and truly connect Kaiwaka

and other small towns to the tourist

model.

Wolfgang is so delighted with his

adventure and personal encounters that

"if there’s another life to come" he says

he’d love to be reborn a New Zealander.

Cheers Wolfgang.

KAIWAKA

WEATHER

Welcome to all readers.

For newcomers to the district

my report comes from State Highway

One, 1KM north of Kaiwaka.

The rain especially varies from

kilometre to kilometre so you may get

a slightly different reading at your

house.

Well thank goodness we are into our

last month of winter. Going by what

we are having now it is going to be a

scorcher of a summer. Maybe another

water tank will help with the water

situation. You cannot get a tank top up

at a moment’s notice. It takes 3 to 4

weeks at least to get a tanker load of

water.

October gave us all it could give.

Starting with wintry conditions as we

would expect. We did get some sun

between the clouds and freezing cold

strong south westerly for a couple of

weeks. With beautiful days in between

the cold south westerlies picked up

again and we did end up with a few

calm days though. With our rainfall

measurement down on last year over

the first 10 months things are starting

to look very dry. 537mm drop already

on last year.

I read where the Far North have had

one third their normal rainfall with

some restrictions in Kaikohe already.

Fair warning about conserving the

water already. Derek on Valley Road

was telling me a couple of weeks ago

about how he can go anywhere on the

farm without leaving big tracks in the

paddocks.

Ok here we go.

Rainfall for October 2019 was 110mm

and for 2018 - 84mm.

We had rain on 14 days for 2019 and

2018 we had rain on 11 days.

Our total for the first 10months of 2019

was 1014mm and for 2018 was

1551mm.

Our driest October since 1987 was in

2000 with 17mm and the wettest was

1989 with 249mm.

Our driest 10 months since 1987 was

1987 with 792mm and the wettest was

2017 with 1512mm.

As I type this out the weather is

sparkling and calm and warming up a

treat.

“What is the world's largest Gem?”

“A baseball Diamond.”

Please take care out there and look

after each other. The Silly Season is

starting already. Well I do not know

where this year has gone as do all of

us. Another calendar soon. Bev.

From NIWA:

Of the six main centres in October

2019, Auckland was the warmest,

Dunedin was the coldest, Wellington

was the wettest, Hamilton was the

driest

and

least

sunny,

and

Christchurch was the sunniest.

Well we are heading towards

that busy time of the year,

hopefully Summer will come

and "Stay" soon.

We enjoyed a nice social get-together

on October 30th.

Lena Welcomed two visitors, one of

them Jan Pedrotti is now a new

member and it was lovely to have

Shirley’s sister an Ex WAAF visit us.

The raffle was won by Shirley and

Dawn won 2nd prize.

Pat Judd is now out of hospital and

settled in her new home in Orewa, we

will miss Pat, but we all want what is

best for her.

We are looking forward to our next

meeting on November 28 which will

be a Christmas Dinner.

Please note we are arriving at 11.30

a.m. not 1.30. Everyone please make

an effort to attend the last meeting for

the year.

We are sorry Jan our Secretary is

unable to be there, but we will drink to

your health Jan!

As this is our last meeting for the year

The Hakaru Womens Section wish

everyone a Happy and Healthy

Christmas Break, and don't forget we

would love to welcome some more

members. ~ Shirley

SILVER FERN FARMS

KAIPARA SPORTS AWARDS

A special night at the Silver Fern Farms Kaipara

Sports Awards when Richard Westlake, skeet

shooter, was awarded the Supreme Award and the

Sportsman of the Year, and to Annmarie Holst,

squash player, the Sportswoman of the Year

Award and Junior Sportsperson of the Year on

Saturday 2 November held at the Maungaturoto

Country Club

An apology

Last time I wrote I gave figures from

Statistics NZ for our Kaiwaka

population. I said there were nearly

3000 people in the district. But I got it

wrong! There is Kaiwaka Township

(700) and Kaiwaka Statistical Area.

The township is part of the total area

and not in addition to it so our town

and district population is 2200 and not

nearer 3000. Sorry Stats NZ – I never

was any good at maths. Still quite a

bunch of us to serve and to provide for.

And a reminder

How often do we get the chance to

have major input into the future shape

of Kaiwaka?

Not very often but Wednesday

November 20th we are invited to have

our say on the Spatial Planning

exercise of Kaipara District Council.

This looks at how we can grow, where

we can put housing (no room in the

town at present), where we can put

retail and commercial (very fragmented

and unplanned at present) and where

we can put industrial development

(some great firms at present but lots

more possibilities).

And to go with all that, we need

services (water and sewerage), we need

recreational facilities and we need

connections, beautification, more sense

of identity and somewhere to call our

town centre.

The full consultation document with

three major options is now available on

the council website:

https://www.kaipara.govt.nz/council/

consultation-and-public-notices/have-

your-say

Click on options and then you will

plough

through

Dargaville

and

Maungaturoto and then the lead in stuff

for Kaiwaka until you come to the

options.

Interesting, stimulating, a huge amount

to think about and exciting as well. We

have been cramped, confined and

controlled for too long. Time to throw

off the old clothes that no longer fit and

put on ones fit for this time, fit for us

as a people and fit for Kaipara as a

whole. But unless we all pitch in and

have our say, the planners will sit in

their offices with their computers and

decide for us! Or else one or two loud

voices will get in and say theirs is the

only way to go.

So, see you there. November 20th,

from 4 – 7.30pm at Kaiwaka Sports

Association. It looks like a drop in

when you can and go when you must

sort of occasion, which is frustrating

when we want to hear what others

think but we can still be there, be seen

and be heard. Look forward to a

packed meeting with lots of input.

And be assured, Kaiwaka Can will be

working through the whole process to

help integrate, activate and make good

things happen.

KAIWAKA CAN: An apology

and a reminder ...

SWARMING HONEY BEES

It is now honey bee swarming season - pictured is a swarm in our garden last

week. The sound (like a close by helicopter!) alerted us to the very large number

of bees in the garden. We then watched as they found a place to form a ‘hive’.

The bees were not aggressive - no concerns about being stung! A local

beekeeper, Rod Heron, was extremely helpful in collecting this swarm.

Bees can no longer survive in the wild by themselves, due to Varroa Mites in

New Zealand. They swarm, a natural

phenomenon, as part of their

instinct to spread their genetic

line and ensure their survival

as a species. Over the ‘Bee

Season’ numbers in the hive

increase to around 60,000 -

overcrowding can trigger ‘the

swarm instinct’. Beekeepers

are essential these days to

keep the bees alive - do call a

local beekeeper, who will be

happy to rehouse the bee

swarm for you.

The survival of kiwi and their chicks in

the Brynderwyns depends on effective

trapping and the elimination of

predators, particularly stoats and feral

cats.

As kiwi extend their territories beyond

Marunui Conservation, an intensively

trapped area where they were released

between 2013 and 2015, it is vital that

predator control is undertaken in the

wider area to help them survive.

To this

end

Piroa-Brynderwyns

Landcare, under the umbrella of Kiwi

Coast, is organising a free pest trapping

workshop for those just starting out and

for those already active and wanting to

upskill.

Kiwi Coast is a collaborative initiative

linking

120

community-led

conservation projects along the east

coast, from Pukenui in the north to

Mangawhai in the south. Its vision is to

restore native forest health, help native

wildlife

thrive

and

increase

Northland’s kiwi numbers.

Todd Hamilton, a professional trapper

and Backyard Kiwi Project Manager in

Whangarei Heads, will give advice and

practical demonstrations. He will cover

the range of traps available for stoats,

ferrets, weasels, feral cats, possums

and rats, how to use them safely and

effectively, where to put them and what

baits to use. Steve Henderson,

Biosecurity Officer from the Regional

Council, will also be on hand to advise

on the support Council makes

available.

Information on pest plants affecting the

area and opportunities to help control

or remove them will be provided by

Weed Action Coordinator, Nancy

Chaves.

Peter Hunt works with the Waipu

Kiwis trapping group and together with

Ann

Neill

co-chairs

Piroa-

Brynderwyns Landcare. He says, “We

are keen to involve as many people as

possible in assisting kiwi recovery in

our project area. Kiwi chicks are

mainly killed by stoats and feral cats so

eliminating these predators is a key

focus. Attending trapping workshops

was a huge help in guiding our efforts.

In the year to date volunteer groups and

professional trappers in 17 projects

surrounding Marunui trapped or

otherwise removed 114 stoats, 7

ferrets, 27 feral cats, 65 weasels, well

over 2000 possums and 962 rats.

Thanks to them our success rate

continues.”

John Hawley of Marunui Conservation

reported their catch from January 2018

to date, combined with its surrounding

Ring of Steel traps, totalled 77 stoats,

23 feral cats, 2 ferrets, 130 weasels and

hundreds of possums and rats.

“These numbers show how many

predators are out there. The workshop

last year was oversubscribed so we

encourage those keen to help protect

kiwi and other native wildlife to

Workshop date: Sunday 24 November

2019, 1.30-4.00pm, Domain Hall, Moir

Street, Mangawhai. To register attendance

NEW FREE MAGAZINE AND

NEWSPAPER SERVICE

If you have been using our old

magazine service, RB Digital (formerly

known as Zinio), you may have noticed

by now that we no longer have that. In

its place is a much better service -

PressReader. Not only does it have all

the magazines you had before, but

there's hundreds more from around the

world, and newspapers too. There are

121 titles just from New Zealand. Fed

up with not being able to view the

'premium' content at the NZ Herald and

Advocate online? See it all in

PressReader. You can view it on your

computer

(www.pressreader.com/

catalog),or install their app on your

phone or tablet. Did I mention that it's

free? All you need is your library card -

and it's free to join the library for

residents and ratepayers in the district -

see the Enterprise* link below.

NEW ON THE RENTAL NON-

FICTION SHELVES

Books added recently to the Rental

Non-Fiction shelves include Tessa

Duder's lovely new book written for

Tuia250, First map: how James Cook

charted Aotearoa New Zealand; it's

about "the human story behind the

creation of Cook's famous chart". (993

DUD).

For the serious gardener

, life-style

block owner, or self-sufficiency

enthusiast we have The lean farm by

Ben Hartman (628 HAR), Dirt to soil

Gabe

Brown

(631

BRO),

Management-intensive grazing by

Jim Gerrish (633 GER), and The lean

farm guide to growing vegetables by

Ben Hartman (635 HAR); these books

were recommended by former Koanga

Gardens gardener Jodi Roebuck who is

now on his own property in Taranaki

with a successful horticultural business

- you may have seen him and his wife

Tanya Mercer on Country Calendar

recently.

For the intellectually-minded, or those

who just like a good biography, we

have The ministry of truth: a

biography of George Orwell's 1984

by Dorian Lynskey - it had a lot of

publicity here a few months back, you

might have seen or heard an interview

with the author (823 LYN), and Ian

McKellen: the biography by Garry

O'Connor (920 OCO).

Interested in stargazing? We have 2020

guide to the night sky: Southern

hemisphere and 2020 Australasian

sky guide (both

523).

The brilliance

of birds: a

New Zealand

birdventure by

Skye Wishart

Edin

Whitehead is a

beautiful tome

about New Zealand birds. "Who knew

that the morepork, our forest-dwelling

owl, can turn its head 270 degrees? Or

that the eastern bar-tailed godwit triples

its body weight before undertaking an

epic and continuous migration of

11,000 kilometres? Or that the tui has

two voiceboxes - enabling it to duet

with itself - one producing sounds too

high-frequency

for

humans

hear?" (598 WIS)

CHRISTMAS HOLIDAYS

That time is rapidly approaching!

Kaiwaka Library will close at 2pm on

Saturday 21 December 2019 for the

festive season and reopen at 4pm on

Monday 6 January 2020.

Any books issued before we close that

would normally be due back while

we're closed will be automatically

extended to the first day, we open in

2020. As always, books can be

returned when we're not open through

the slot by the door.

Borrowers with an adult's library card

(green and black) may borrow up to 40

items, and those with children's cards

(yellow and green) may borrow up to

10 items at a time. Still have one of our

old white laminated cards? - they're

adult cards. Stock up to get yourself

through the holidays!

NEXT BOOK SWAP

Our next book swap is with Dargaville

Library in early December. Now is a

good time and really trawl through

those shelves for some good reading!

These books don't need to be back

before the swap, just return them as

usual.

BOOK REVIEW

Have you read a book from our library

that you really enjoyed and want to tell

others about? We welcome reviews

from anyone - I'm sure people get tired

of mostly hearing about what I've read

and would enjoy other opinions and

tastes. It doesn't have to be long, just a

sentence or two saying what you

enjoyed about it is enough if that's all

you have. Write it, or type it, and send

it in - leave it at the library, pop it in

the after-hours returns box by the door,

post it to us, or send it by email. We'd

love to hear from you.

Want to know more about what I've

been reading? I've set up a page in

Facebook

for

that

https://

www.facebook.com/

WendyReadsBooks/ - or you can find

me at Goodreads.com - find Kaiwaka

Library there, and you'll see that I'm it's

friend on that site.

See you in the library! ~Wendy

Under Milkwood, the much loved

classic play by Welsh poet Dylan

Thomas, is to be performed in

Mangawhai, in the Mangawhai Library

Hall, by the newly formed community

theatre group, the Mangawhai Players,

on November 29, 30 and 1 December.

While some of the Mangawhai Players

have

extensive

backgrounds

performance others are new to the joys

of being on stage. However they are all

share the fun and pleasure of working

together.

In Llareggub

Join us for a glorious celebration of

life, love and language. Share 24 hours

in the lives of the villagers in

Llareggub, a small Welsh town by the

sea. Meet Captain Cat, the retired blind

sea captain who dreams of his drowned

shipmates and long lost lover Rosie

Probert, Mrs Ogmore-Pritchard who

nags the ghosts of her two dead

husbands, Mr Pugh, school teacher,

who schemes and dreams about getting

rid of Mrs Pugh, Mr Mog Edwards,

draper, who adores Miss Price, sweet

shop keeper, and many more wonderful

eccentric characters.

To begin at the beginning, director

Susan Dugdale posted a message on

the Mangawhai Community Facebook

page asking for people interested in

being in a production of Under

Milkwood to come along to a meeting.

From there the word spread.

She says we have a cast of twenty:

twelve adults and eight children, who

between them play sixty characters.

That includes the narration weaving

their stories together.

We also are very fortunate to have the

support of Rush coffee. Owners

Hayden and Emma Prujean, in addition

to covering costs, are both involved in

the production. Hayden has taken on

the challenge of lighting the show

while Emma, an accomplished singer-

songwriter, will provide, and play,

original music.

Under Milk Wood is an unforgettable

journey. It’s sad and sensual, bawdy

and beautiful.

As the Reverend Eli Jenkins says, “We

are not wholly bad or good, Who live

our lives under Milk Wood.”

You could say pretty much the same of

any small town any where. Even

Mangawhai.

Tickets are on sale now. Buy online.

BOOK OPINIONS

Norwegian Wood: Chopping, Stacking,

and Drying Wood the Scandinavian Way

If a book can be called 'reliable' then this is

it.

I read about woodcutting in Norway and

translate it to Kaiwaka in my mind. It is both

interesting and weighty.

Author Lars Mytting was paid to produce a

book about his national wood fire culture and he

determined that it had to be useful to the

practical people who'd built that culture over

centuries.

The book has been loaned to me by a godson for

whom it is a 'dip in' book. I'm doing the same

and will have to buy myself a copy when I

return it to him. Mytting writes of axes,

chainsaws, magnetic measures for length,

coppicing, types of tree, burning heat ... all in a

way I can relate to, and with great coloured photos of tools and people. And he

doesn't 'go on'.

Just now I studied the development of the chainsaw.

It has been a runaway success as a book in recent years, selling hundreds of

thousands of copies both in Norway and wherever the European empires have

spread.

I'll possibly be reading it for years. Just as well it is in hard cover. ~ HP
