KAIWAKA CLEAN UP OR NOT ...

The storm of Sunday 31 May left rather a mess in our township; sadly we have seen only a partial clean up, especially

from the township to the school. Below a before (2011) and after at the Kaiwaka Bridge

Update from Waiheke Working Sail:

THE KATE IS SAILING!

Actually, we’ve been out twice with the mainsail. The first time was forecast wind E. 15 – 20 knots, so we put a reef in as

a precaution. As well we did, it blew up to 25 kn plus! We pushed her hard and dipped the lee rail under. We lowered the

staysail, and she handled the brisk conditions easily. Stretched the rigging, and found several leaks in the topsides, where

the dry weather has shrunk the planks.

The second outing was a much gentler affair. A light

Southerly saw us sail off the mooring and tack out of the

inlet, then sailing to and fro for a photo shoot, the crew each

taking a turn at the helm. We even tried out the topsail,

donated by Dave Giddens who made the sails, and it fits

perfectly!

Then it fell calm, and we motored home with a 2hp.

outboard on the dinghy alongside. We’re very pleased with

the Kate’s performance; she sails well, answers the helm

readily and is nicely balanced, a delight to steer.

Our big fundraising targets now are for the engine and

propeller, and eventually certification under MOSS (Marine

Operator Safety System). We still have the beautiful prints

for sale, now portraying a dream come true, and any money

you can donate is tax deductible, much appreciated.

Scrapbook...

RECIPE FOR LIFE.

Take two parts of

unselfishness and one part of

patience.

Work them together, add plenty

of industry, lighten with good

spirits, and sweeten with kindness.

Add good deeds as thickly as

raisins in a plum pudding and bake

with warmth from a tender heart.

WARNING: If the recipe fails

don’t blame it – you’re just a bad

cook!

1.If I agreed with you, we'd both be

wrong.

2. War does not determine who is

right - only who is left.

3. Knowledge is knowing a tomato is

a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it in a

fruit salad.

4. They begin the evening news with

'Good Evening,' then proceed to Tell

you why it isn't.

5. To steal ideas from someone is

plagiarism. To steal from many is

called research.

6. I didn't say it was your fault, I said I

was blaming you.

7. Behind every successful man is his

woman. Behind the fall of a Successful

man is usually another woman.

8. A clear conscience is the sign of a

bad memory.

PUTAKITAKI

MUCKING UP PARADISE

For five years we have enjoyed the return of a putakitaki pair to the paddock

outside the pasture gate. The honk and zeek of their conversation became

familiar

. Ref. https://www.doc.govt.nz/nature/native-animals/birds/birds-a-z/paradise-duck-

putakitaki/

Until this year that is.

My mind was drawn to their non-appearance on a property 5km away yesterday

when a calling pair flew by.

Before living on Oneriri, I had once seen putakitaki, in a willow at Christchurch

Botanic Garden, sitting quietly, being beautiful. Their distinctive plumage and

rarity prior to bush clearance indicated why Christian settlers called this native

species the ‘paradise duck”.

Ref. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradise_shelduck

Research through Wikipedia suggests pairs mate for life and are territorial

which is probably the reason we have seen just one pair in our pasture. An extra

white-headed female had lingered at a distance once or twice a year or two

back, possibly a late youngling wanting its parent. It was chased off by the

male. They breed only in New Zealand, had to be protected a century ago, and

some are said to live 23 years.

Observers say the population expanded after bush clearance and swamps were

drained for grazing. Little wonder they’re on ponds and dams. Are they a

problem in the Kaiwaka area?

Be worth knowing.

But next time you have a gun

and see a putakitaki pair wing

their way to familiar homes,

remember these shelducks

mate for life, and that some

neighbours will be sad to see a

loner. HP

Kaiwaka Can had its first meeting last Wednesday, first since March so a lot to

catch up on. We spent most of the time talking about the future shape of

Kaiwaka as outlined in the Spatial Planning document.

Fascinating piece of work

– traffic lights, realignment of Oneriri Road, lots

of walking tracks, new town centre covering the whole corner block SH1 and

Kaiwaka Mangawhai Road, lots of space for housing (2200 lots) and a new light

industrial area just north of the Coffee Pot. Now before you get too excited it has

yet to be moulded into the new district plan and that may take a while.

But what we are interested in is looking now for the things we would like to

see built into it that will be of direct community benefit. The time to start that is

now so that we can prioritise and present to Council a series of projects, ideally

shovel ready in the new jargon so that we don't have to scramble round later and

say we should have put that in or that in.

Here's where you come in.

If you had a blank canvas for Kaiwaka's future,

what would you like to see?

Active and passive recreational space:

What do we need for a town

expected to grow towards 5000? Parks, nature areas, specialised sports zones?

Walking and cycling tracks:

It is a lot easier to draw in the outlines now

before land gets sold and carved up. How can we make Kaiwaka a very walker

and cyclist friendly space? Where would you put them?

McClean Park:

How would you maximise and beautify its use? Ideas already

suggested included kayaking pontoon, dog exercise area (especially for

travellers), memorial garden, upgraded picnic areas?

How would you cater for young people? What would they like for recreation

and where could it go?

Cleaning up existing eyesores?

What spaces even now would you like to

clean up, replant and make our town more beautiful?

Making Kaiwaka and its opportunities known?

How would you let the

rest of country (and especially Auckland) know what a great place it is for small

businesses, for homes, for commuting and for retirement?

And what sort of retail facilities would you like to see? Kaiwaka is aiming to

be unique, always interesting, 'funky' in the words of the spatial plan.

What are the sorts of interesting and specialist shops we could bring in?

Services?

How would you cater for medical needs, social service needs,

internet services...and any others that come to mind?

So let your imagination go.

And let us know in Kaiwaka Can remembering

that everyone is welcome any time to come along to meetings and say what you

think is needed.

If you want to see the Spatial Plan as it is now, look at, bearing in mind it is

long?

In the short time we have been

able to get back together there

has been a great deal of

discussion on the best way forward for

our club. We have discussed the type

of projects we would like to be

involved in. It has been decided that

getting alongside community groups

might be the best way forward.

If you have any suggestions of areas

that could be considered, please have a

chat to any Rotarian (or call me,

Eileen, on 0211420357)

Tinopai School Visit

On Monday 15th June, several

Rotarians were able to visit Tinopai

school to support our sponsorship of

Duffy books. As a sponsor of Tinopai

students we are part of a scheme

started by Alan Duff about 25 years

ago to ensure each student at a targeted

school gets two books to take home

and keep. The scheme also provides

books that can be given as prizes when

certain values are attained. The aim of

the programme is to encourage young

people to read. On this day the children

(and the adults) were thoroughly

entertained by three young people, just

out of drama school, doing a play

about a mythical creature – a chogen

(part chicken, part dog and part hen.)

This was very well done with minimal

props but did include constant

references to books that were on hand.

Driver Mentoring

We are very proud of our Driver

Mentoring scheme which was able to

start again in the middle of June. We

have a new mentor in the wings which

is great as we are getting more people

wanting assistance in obtaining their

restricted licence. Remember, each

applicant must have their Learners’

licence, but there are no age

restrictions. However, I need to

emphasise that the 12 or so lessons we

give people only make up a small

amount of the recommended practical

driving practice between the two

licences (120 hours).

President Changeover night

30 June is our Changeover night when

Rodney Tysoe will become President

for the ensuing year. While Rotary is

an international organisation, it is

always great to see how each President

brings in their personal touch to the

Club.

We look forward to the focus that

Rodney will deem important.

SERVICES

Greetings everyone, so nice to see the

rain, but there comes a point when

there can be just too much. Today as I

write, this is almost the case.

However, we are grateful for it just the

same.

It is disappointing that our great Covid

-free record has been broken. We

were doing so well, but we were told

to expect more to appear. I know we

are all hoping that wouldn’t come true,

but I guess it was inevitable.

Our calendar for July is as

follows:

Monday 6: Fun & Games at the

Footprints Room, Anglican Church

Tuesday 14: Shopping trip to

Whangarei – to be confirmed

Wednesday 15: Chocolate Bingo – to

be confirmed

Wednesday 22: Shopping trip to

Whangarei

For any information on any of the

above please phone The Community

House on 431 9080.

The first seniors’ lunch will be at the

St John Hall on Wednesday 6 August.

Take care of each other

From all at OCS

From the OCS

Team:

Gail Blythen is the

Parent

Coach

Otamatea

Community

Services, and is able

to visit you in your

home or meet at our

community house to

help with any parenting questions or

difficulties you may have.

She will work with you to find out

about your parenting style, the things

that you do well and the things you

would like to improve.

You will find that having a collection

of parenting tools that are appropriate

to your child’s age and development

will give you confidence and help with

consistency in your parenting journey.

Gail looks forward to meeting many of

you throughout the Kaipara area.

St Pauls Church: Kaiwaka-Mangawhai Rd.

Priest in Charge Rev. W Thornton Ph 431 4122

www.mangawhaianglican.org.nz

The Second World War arrived in New Zealand with a bang when German

mines sank the trans-Pacific liner Niagara off Northland’s Bream Head. The

sinking shocked the public and shattered any illusions that distance would

protect these islands from enemy attack.

The Orion, a German raider disguised as a merchant ship, had slipped

undetected into New Zealand waters and laid 228 contact mines in the

approaches to the Hauraki Gulf on the night of 13/14 June 1940. At 3.40 a.m. on

the 19th, the 13,415-ton Niagara, which had just left Auckland on its regular run

to Suva and Vancouver, struck two mines and sank quickly by the bow.

Fortunately, all 349 passengers and crew got away safely in 18 lifeboats; the

only casualty was the ship’s cat, Aussie.

Also lost was the ship’s secret

cargo of small-arms ammunition

and gold ingots worth £2.5 million

(equivalent to nearly $250 million

today). In late 1941, an epic

salvage effort recovered almost all

of the gold from the wreck, which

lay at a depth of 60

fathoms (110 m).

TV TIE-IN

Have you been watching I

Know This Much Is True

on Sky's SOHO channel,

starring Mark Ruffalo and

Rosie O'Donnell? We're

enjoying this excellent

production at our place. It

is based on the book of

the same title by Wally

Lamb, and we have the

book on our shelves.

"Every waking moment of

his life Dominick Birdsey

feels split in two - he is

the sane twin to a

schizophrenic

brother.

Dominick is bound to his

brother by love and

resentment, anger and fear. From

childhood, he fights for both separation

and belonging in a house dominated by

their stepfather Ray.

"This story is a search for identity, love

and wholeness, and for answers to the

dark secrets of his family. It journeys

from a blue-collar town in New

England to the foothills of Sicily's

Mount

Etna

where

Dominick's

vengefully proud grandfather was born.

And in his grandfather's

handwritten

memoirs,

D o m i n i c k

f i n d s

confessions and a legacy of

contrition.

"Filled with richly-drawn,

memorable characters this

deeply

moving

and

thoroughly

satisfying

novel bring to light our

deepest needs and fears,

our aloneness, our desire

for love and acceptance,

and our struggle to survive

at all costs."

Book review

Cathy and John have read

Star of the north by DB

John, and really enjoyed

it. "

North Korea and the

USA are on the brink of

war. A young American

woman disappears without

a trace from a South

Korean island. The CIA

recruits her twin sister to

uncover the truth. Now,

she must go undercover in

the world's most deadly

state. Only by infiltrating

the dark heart of the

terrifying regime will she

be able to save her sister...

and herself." This book is

on our Rental Fiction

shelves.
