25 July: Safety, access, hope -Mayor Jason Smith used those words to sum up the announcement made by the
Honourable Shane Jones, Minister for Regional Economic Development on investing $3 million into community
infrastructure in Mangawhai and Kaiwaka. “Three projects in the Kaipara region have been funded to improve much-
needed infrastructure in these growing communities north of Auckland. They will also provide jobs and training
opportunities,” Shane Jones
said (pictured right with Cr Jonathan Larsen).
He also said Kaipara District Council will also receive $750,000
for two pedestrians’ bridges and an interlinking footpath on the
western side of Kaiwaka, providing safety and access on both sides
of State Highway One and provide safer access to the town centre
than trying to cross the busy State Highway 1.
“Kaiwaka is an area that is growing in importance as people spread
from Auckland and find new places to live. The new footbridges
will open up more recreational space and access to parts of the
upper Kaipara Harbour,” Shane Jones said.
Funding also goes towards: the building of the Mangawhai Historic
Wharf - $600,000 and $2.4 million for developing of the shared
path along Mangawhai’s Molesworth Drive .
‘SAFETY ACCESS HOPE’ ~ Mayor Jason Smith

‘A Story of Solutions "The Need to

on the importance of healthy soil —
revealing not only the potential of
localised food production working
with nature, but our opportunity as
individuals to help regenerate our
planet's dying soils and participate in
the restoration of the Earth.
Directed by Rob Herring, Ryan

LITTLE WOMEN
Friday 7 August, 7.30pm (PG)
‘
Writer-director Greta Gerwig (Lady Bird)
has crafted a Little Women that draws on
both the classic novel and the writings of
Louisa May Alcott, and unfolds as the
author's alter ego, Jo March, reflects back
and forth on her fictional life. In Gerwig's
take, the beloved story of the March sisters -
four young women each determined to live
life on her own terms -- is both timeless and
timely. Portraying Jo, Meg, Amy, and Beth
March, the film stars Saoirse Ronan, Emma
Watson, Florence Pugh, Eliza Scanlen, with
Timothée Chalamet as their neighbour
Laurie, Laura Dern as Marmee, and Meryl
Streep as Aunt March.’

KAIWAKA
WEATHER
That is July weather gone.
Not nice but after all it is the middle of
the winter months. That dreadful
Easterly wind will be with us for a few
months yet. At last we got that much
needed rain believe it or not. With our
climate changing we need that extra
water tank- very little rain in summer
(as it should be) and heaps of rain in
winter (as it should be). The extra rain
in another tank even a smaller one will
maybe hold you over through the
summer.
July threw it all at us. That was some
storm we had over the middle of the
month. Some very cold mornings
down to 1 deg. and maybe lower in
some
places.
The
Brynderwyn
Waterfall got a much-needed boost
which shows our water table should
come up again. Hopefully it will stay
that way for a while and not dry up
again.
We recorded at our house for July
2020 273mm and 2019 we had
177mm.
Our wettest July since 1987 was 1998
with 602mm and the driest was 1993
with 33mm.
For the first 7 months of 2020 we had
992mm and 2019 we had 577mm.
Our wettest first 7 months since 1987
was 2018 with 1261mm and the driest
was 1987 with 480mm.
We had rain on 16 days in 2020 and
for 2019 it rained on 23 days.
The weather is warming up slowly as
you notice the days are getting longer.
1st July sunrise was at 7.33am and 31st
July was 7.20am. A difference of 13
minutes. It is even starting to look and
smell like spring with the Daffodils and
spring flowers coming out. A dull but
pleasant end to our middle of winter
month.
To escape a bit of boredom: As often
as possible Skip rather than walk, or at
Lunch Time, sit in your parked car
with sunglasses on and Point A Hair
Drier at Passing Cars. See if they slow
down
.
Take care out there. Bev.

THE WAY WE WERE!
We take an affectionate look at the past through the pages of the
Women’s Weekly. Actions can speak louder than words – and in
days gone by a shy girl could communicate her feelings with a
handy hanky! The following appeared in our 14th April 1923 issue:
LANGUAGE OF THE HANDKERCHIEF:
⚫
Do you wish to convey to him the message “I don’t care”? Just twirl your
handkerchief in both hands. But remember if you drop it, it means, “I want
to be friends.”
⚫
Be careful not to draw the handkerchief across your cheek when the wrong
man is near, for this means “I love you”. Pulling it through your hands is
equivalent to saying, “I hate you.”
⚫
Should you wish to answer the unspoken question in his eyes, rest the
handkerchief on your right cheek if you wish to say “Yes”, and if it is to be
“No” press the handkerchief against your left cheek.
⚫
If you twirl the handkerchief in your left hand you are
telling him to go away; and twirled in your right hand it
means “I love another.”
⚫
If you wish to speak to him, just grasp the folded
handkerchief in your hand, but if you put it in your
pocket it shows you have nothing more to say.

Well I suppose we can call it that.
Because we now have money to build
the two footbridges, we have been
planning for more than four years.
$750,000! This is courtesy of the
government, Regional Growth Fund to
be exact and it was announced
Saturday 25th July by the Minister in
charge of the fund, Shane Jones. A
good team of our Kaiwaka Can people
were there for the announcement
including some who have been
working on this since it all began.
Where did it start?
One of our original members, Lars,
suggested way back five years ago that
we build two footbridges, one by each
of our two Kaiwaka Bridges, on the
western side where the bridges have no
footpaths, to connect north and south of
Kaiwaka, to connect everything from
the Italian Bakery to McClean Park and
the Coffee Pot. He originally
suggested, real lateral thinking, that we
get a very long container, cut it in half
along the midline and drop each half
over the streams. Great idea – shudder
to think of the consent issues.
However, the idea went into the
Township Improvement Plan as part of
the desire to get Kaiwaka more
connected.
The next exciting development
was when someone spotted an old
motorway pedestrian overbridge, lying
in a paddock near Matakana. It seemed
long enough, was solid enough, even
built to NZTA requirements! But
again, logistics and planning meant it
wouldn't quite make it.
Then some of our creative design
team
put together the plan called
Kaiwaka Heart/Central. This used the
planned footbridges and looked at
surrounding green and recreational
spaces to give a far more attractive
entrance into the centre of town.
Council liked it, we loved it and we
still do. And just a couple of weeks
ago, the local council liaison officer
announced work was happening on the
bridges, technical stuff that made it all
look more likely to happen. But the
money, yes that money again, was not
yet tracked down and secured.
However now, thanks especially to our
tireless ward councillor Jonathan
Larsen, the money is here!
What lies next?
Talks with council
to make sure we are all on the same
page as some haven't quite seen it the
way it was originally planned. But we
believe there is really going to be
action soon and a real footbridge,
capable of taking real people over the
rivers, no highway crossings, through
the heart of town to the northern end.
What is our big plan?
To keep on
working to create a corridor of green
spaces, to allow walkers and cyclists to
go safely through the heart of our town
and for cyclists, connect with future
plans for a cycleway going north from
McClean Park to link with the cycle
network starting to happen throughout
Kaipara and Northland. We are
thankful to the dreamers and planners,
the people who have never let go of the
dream and the people who have helped
make it happen.
By the way
, there is a lot more
dreaming to do about the future of our
town, endless possibilities and some of
the dreams you have too, which we
would love you to share with us.
Already there are great ideas starting to
take shape and we want to take all of
them and create something bold,
beautiful and uniquely Kaiwaka. And
in case you have forgotten we meet
every third Wednesday, Archie Bull
Hall (behind the Anglican Church)
5.30pm and it is open to all of you. Just
turn up and we will see what our future
can be.

OTAMATEA HAWKS WOMEN’S RUGBY
Saturday 25 July the team ended their 2020 season in Ahipara when they played
Te Rarawa in the semi-finals of their competition. Although it was a loss they
learned where women’s rugby can progress to as they played against former and
current Black Fern
greats. Our try was
scored by speedster
Louisa
Tubailagi
and converted by
Maddie Johnson.

last Thursday. Maggie is now the 2020

champion.
2020 Senior Ball
‘Covid-19 has disrupted a lot of our school year
and our Senior Ball committee is no exception.
Due to the time that we were not able to
fundraise for the Senior Ball, we are now
working really hard to find fundraising
opportunities and put out a call to our
community to see how you could help us.
The senior ball is one of the highlights of our
school year where our senior students get the chance to dress up, eat great food,
and spend an enjoyable evening in the company of our teachers and peers. The
2020 ball committee want to make this year's Ball the best ever, especially given
the challenging circumstances we have all found ourselves in.
If you can help us, or can provide us a quote for your services, please email
kelly.huband@otamatea.school.nz or hayley.linton@otamatea.school.nz by
Wednesday 5th of August.’
Ngā mihi nui, Senior Ball Committee 2020
Senior Wellington Trip 2020.
After an initial cancellation due to
COVID
lockdown,
the
2020
Wellington Trip was lucky to be
rescheduled for the 1st week of Term
3. This is the second year Ms Baker
has taken a group of Year 12 students
for four nights to visit Parliament,
The Reserve Bank and the Treasury
office. 15 students were perfect
ambassadors for Otamatea, engaging
in the tours and seminars with
interest, and using their free time to
learn how to navigate our country's
capital city.
The sun was out every day and students made the most of their time as tourists
by visiting other attractions such as Te Papa, old war bunkers up Mt Victoria and
Weta workshop. The highlight for the group was an excellent tour of the
Supreme Court, which was a new scheduled addition to the trip this year.
Students also had plenty of time to relax in the afternoons and evenings with
activities such as ice skating, bowling, lazer maze, the Fear Factory and of
course shopping. A big thank you to Helen McKenzie and Nazila Khan for their
support during the trip.

The Health and Disability System
Review,
which was initiated by the
government, was completed recently.
The purpose of the review was to
future proof our health and disability
services and to recommend system
level
changes
that
would
be
sustainable, lead to better and more
equitable outcomes for all New
Zealanders and shift the balance from
treatment
towards
health
and
wellbeing.
The Review found that NZ has a
high performing Health system
,
but
it
has
been
significantly
underfunded and does not serve some
populations, particularly Maori, as well
as it should. Staff are under pressure,
there are some significant shortages
and most DHBs are in deficit.
They recommend:
➢
Increased focus on Population
Health to keep us well and protected.
➢
Improved Primary Care – which
covers GP and community services –
through locality and care networks (of
around 20,000–100,000 people) where
community aspirations are included in
planning.
Primary
Health
Organisations (PHOs) would not
continue, removing one layer of
bureaucracy and confusion around
accountabilities.
➢
Changes to the Ministry of Health,
separating
out
some
functions
including Maori Health and central
leadership and performance monitoring
of the DHBs.
➢
Reduce the number of DHBs from
20 to 8–12 over 5 years. What that
means for Northland is unclear; we are
the fastest growing DHB population
wise, we have a huge geographical area
and our next closet DHBs are
completely different in size and
populations to us. Will they create new
boundaries, will we remain as
Northland or be merged with other/s?
➢
Board to consist of only appointed
board members, no elected members.
Currently, boards are
about 2/3 elected and 1/3
government
appointed
board members. They
note that voting in DHB
elections is not high, and
the public often say they
don’t know who the
candidates are and don’t feel engaged
in the election process. I note,
however, that elected members do
get regular contact from individuals
and communities raising their health
concerns. My analysis is that a
government would probably like more
control over DHB boards so appointing
the board is one way to achieve that.
➢
More
national
planning,
so
wherever people live they can expect
the same level of services.
➢
Significant
investment
in
Infrastructure – facilities, hospitals,
equipment – and Information Systems.
➢
Other changes in accountabilities
of community services, which will be
significant within the health sector.
The final report is 250 pages long, so
this is a tiny snapshot. It is available on
the MOH website if you are wanting to
know more.
We will have to see how the
recommendations unfold over the next
5 years. Northland DHB will do
whatever we can to keep the needs of
Northlanders at the forefront of
changes that we will be part of
implementing.

Book reviews
Recently I've read the Hard Play series
by Nalini Singh.
This three-book series
(Cherish Hard, Rebel Hard,
and Love Hard) is on our
Rental Fiction shelves in the
library. If you've read this
author before, she is up to
her usual standard here with
relationships and romances.
They're set in New Zealand.

A NEW “DEVELOPMENT”
WELLSFORD-MANGAWHAI CAMERA CLUB
For many years the “small but friendly” Wellsford Camera Club has met at
various locations in Wellsford. However, with local interest dropping off the
decision was made to “expand” and transfer to Mangawhai and relaunch the
club in a new photographic setting.
The aim of the club is to increase members’ enjoyment of photography by
developing skills and providing opportunity to show and share their work. (As
well as discuss anything photographic and life in general). Each month there is a
competition with a set subject.
Members enter online, the images are judged; and feedback helps members
improve their photographic skills. This friendly club is open to all with an
interest in photography – from beginners to “old hands”; learning from and
encouraging each other. A great place to ask
questions and learn how to do stuff. “We
firmly believe everyone can take great photos,
no matter what skill or equipment level; and
we will help you do this.”
The next meeting of the newly constituted
“Wellsford-Mangawhai Camera Club” is on
Thursday 27 August, 7.30pm, at one of the
local member’s lounge, 34 Jack Boyd Drive
Mangawhai (with the yellow mailbox). If you
are interested in photography, would like to
improve your picture taking, have questions
about technique or gear, you are
encouraged to come along. The
plan is to continue meeting on the
fourth Thursday of the month at
7.30pm
from
February
to
November.
