SPARK MOBILE SERVICE ISSUES

THE PROBLEM

On 2 January, Spark and Skinny mobile phone coverage disappeared in several areas

around Kaiwaka. This was due to a Spark cell site having been destroyed by suspected

vandalism. Police are investigating and Spark is working to restore service. Spark has

posted the occasional useful post of Facebook, but so far there has been little

communication to non-Facebook users. Spark has listed the outage as follows:

Kaipara District Outage Outage

(Mobile)

3G/4G mobile customers and WBB customers in the Kaiwaka town may be

experiencing a loss of voice, data and SMS services due to a cell site being

vandalized on the 2 of January 2022. A temporary site was set up on 6th Jan

with more capacity being added in the next few days to fully restore service.

RESOLUTION

Spark has installed a temporary cell site (known as Cellsite on Wheels or COW) on 6

January and some service has been restored; however these temporary sites don’t have

the height/power of the original and hence full coverage hasn’t yet been restored. Spark

are working to install a second COW to improve coverage until a permanent tower can

be re-established. The permanent replacement may take some time but there is no ETA

available as yet. According to Spark though, full service should be available upon

completion on the second COW installation as per the Outage notice. Hopefully that

installation will be complete by the time this goes to print. As I write this, the second

COW is in position near the Kaiwaka library.

SCOPE OF PROBLEM

The current situation is that there are pockets of poor or no coverage in various areas of Kaiwaka. For those of you who

remember, this is pretty much the way it was until around 5 or 6 years ago, when coverage was patchy and there was almost none

in the area around the Four Square and Three Furlongs and the various businesses around that area. Newer technology (4G) has

THE KAIWAKA

SCOTTISH

COUNTRY

DANCING CLUB.

Scottish Country Dancing is a fun way

of getting and staying fit without

knowing it! The dancing is very

sociable, but you don’t need a partner.

We all swap around partners to get to

know each other. If you have ever been

to and enjoyed a Ceilidh, then Scottish

Country Dancing could be for you.

Kaiwaka Scottish Country Dancing

Club was started in May 2018 and

formally opened in July of that year.

We have been in Kaiwaka on

Wednesday mornings ever since.

During lockdown we danced on Zoom

to keep up our fitness and social contact

and when we could we resumed

dancing albeit outside and contactless

for those of us based in Auckland area!!

We are starting this term’s sessions

with a 4-week beginners’ course in

Kaiwaka War Memorial Hall on

Wednesdays from the 9th February,

9.30 – 11.00(includes a coffee break!).

Experienced dancers will be dancing

from 10.30 starting with coffee and

then dancing from 10.45 until 12.30.

All ages are welcome, and it is an ideal

form of exercise for relaxing after

dropping off the children at school,

home school fitness or keeping fit

during retirement. Please come and try

it out. Weekly fee is $5, the cost of a

cup of coffee, which is included. You

will need soft soled flat shoes. If you

decide to join after your course, there

will also be an annual fee of $10. We

will sight vaccination passes on your

first attendance.

Do come and try it out for 4 weeks. We

welcome 2 left feet and have heaps of

patience with beginner dancers!

KAIWAKA

WEATHER

Happy New Year to

you all,

As you will all be very aware, there is

not a lot to report as far as rain goes for

December. We went from the 24th

November to the 5th of December with

no rain at all, then we got – wait for it –

5ml over 3 days. I was quite glad as our

lawn got a chance to dry out a bit. We

then had another dry week. From the

12th December to the 17th we had a

lovely soaking rain, out of which we

got 98ml.

We then had to wait until 29th

December when we got 5.5ml.

•

The total rainfall for the month of

December at our place was 108.5ml.

•

The highest December rainfall I have

recorded at our place was in 2011 with

a whopping big 216ml.

•

Our driest December was in 2015

with only 27ml.

•

The total rainfall for 2021 at our

place was 1508ml.

•

The lowest annual rainfall I have

recorded was in 2015 with only

1008.5ml.

•

The highest annual rainfall I have

recorded was in 2017 with 1728ml

recorded at our place.

Tony and Lindsey tell me, that my rain

records are pretty much the same as

what they record at their Kaira Rd

property. Very interesting, as I often

look towards Oneriri and think they are

getting a lot more rain than us. Maybe

it is all falling further out? I hope you

all have a lovely 2022. ~ Karen

2021 was New Zealand’s warmest year on

record, surpassing the previous record set

in 2016.

Seven of the past nine years have been

among New Zealand’s warmest on record.

The nationwide average temperature for

2021, calculated using stations in NIWA’s

seven-station temperature series which

began in 1909, was 13.56°C (0.95°C above

the 1981–2010 annual average).

THE END OF AN

ERA IS TIP TOEING

NEARER!!

Today Pa and Mā (Rau and

Maria Morgan) have officially

retired

from

the

Kaiwaka

Foodbank.

What originally started as Wahine

Māori Toko i te Ora (Māori Women's

Welfare League) some 15+ years ago,

morphed into what it is today "Te

Pātaka o Kaiwaka". Already full-time

workers, Pa (now a retired School Bus

Driver and Kaumātua for Police) and

Ma (currently HOD Māori at Rodney

College), both worked around the

clock, giving the little time they had, to

serve the wider community, taking food

from their own cupboards to make sure

whānau, especially children were well

taken care of. Stacking and packing

boxes and sometimes delivering

parcels, driving for miles to people who

couldn't come to them, was part of their

daily routine. With the continued

support of Jaques Four Square,

Community and their Whānau, the

Foodbank still thrives today.

They have seen many friendly faces

come and go and wish the very best and

every success for those who will now

take the reins. Mā te Ariki e manaaki, e

tiaki i ngā wā katoa.

The Kaiwaka Foodbank will still be

fully operational and manned as per the

information on their page "Te Pātaka o

Kaiwaka". Rau and Mā however, will

no longer be based there.

We thank you both for your endless

service and unconditional aroha to a

community. May God bless & always

keep you. ~ Waimarie

With that said, the committee members

of Te Pataka o Kaiwaka and Milly

O’Leary would like to invite those that

wish to acknowledge Rau and Ma’s

contribution to a pot luck lunch next

Tuesday 25th January at 11.30am at

the Kaiwaka War Memorial Hall.

CHRISTMAS

OVERSEAS

STAFF SERGEANT ALLEN

Staff Sergeant Allen grew up in

Kaiwaka. We knew her as Claire

Gilligan. Claire attended Kaiwaka

Primary and Otamatea High School,

before joining the NZ Army. She was

part of the Bugle collating team too.

More than 170 New Zealand personnel

across a dozen missions are set to

spend Christmas away from home.

(Source: 1News)

But for those set to spend Christmas

posted in another country thoughts are

turning to friends, family and simple

pleasures they can't have.

"That's probably one of the biggest

things I think most of us is missing, is

the bread, bread from New Zealand...

just amazing," Staff Sergeant Claire

Allen told 1News from South Korea.

"And cheese."

"Everyone will start off the day talking

to their families and then we'll come

together around lunchtime, and have a

New Zealand Christmas lunch," Staff

Sergeant Allen said.

Since being on boards of trustees at

Paparoa Primary and Otamatea High

Schools I have developed an interest in

governance – the part of the

organisation that has oversight of and

determines direction and outcomes for

the organisation to deliver on. It works

in conjunction with the management of

the organisation, and when working

well is a great pleasure to be part of. I

have recently been elected as the

Chair

of Sport Northland

and feel

privileged to be stepping into in this

role. It has great alignment with my role

on the district health board and the

focus there on a creating a Healthier

Northland.

As a district councillor for Kaipara, I

was appointed to the Sport Northland

Board in 2017, which I was delighted

about. I have had a long interest in

health and wellbeing, and physical

activity since being an adult (not so

much as a teenager!) I wasn’t a sporty

kid but was encouraged to participate

and enjoyed the camaraderie and fun of

getting together with my mates.

Sport

Northland’s

vision

“Enriching lives through play, active

recreation, and sport”. I see that as

being relevant to everyone from

children to older adults. Movement and

physical activity is essential for every

“body” and the social aspects of

connection and belonging to a group or

a team are also beneficial to our

physical and mental wellbeing. In

saying that I also enjoy a solo walk -

just me and the environment, my

thoughts or maybe my music or a

podcast. Going to the beach, doing a

bush walk, a farm walk,

playing with the kids, yoga,

pig hunting, dancing, tai

chi, gardening are all

examples

active

recreation.

Sport Northland

has a

variety of areas where they encourage

and support Northlanders to move

more. Some of these are in schools,

such as the Energiser roles in primary

schools, supporting teachers to run

programmes for students on physical

activity and nutrition; and supporting

secondary schools with competitions

and events across a variety of sports.

They also run events such as the Kai

Iwi Lakes triathlon coming up on 9

April, the Hatea Loop Challenge in

Whangarei on 17 February, Beach to

Basin on 6 March, among others

across

Northland.

Working

conjunction with the Councils and other

groups they also own and/or manage a

number of facilities to provide

opportunities for physical activity and

getting together with others. These

include the Kauri Coast (Dargaville)

Pool, the Whangarei Aquatic Centre

and a number of other public swimming

pools across Northland as well as

running the Kensington Fitness gym.

I am excited (and a little nervous) about

taking on the chair role. I hope we can

help and encourage more Northlanders

to Move More to improve their health

and enjoyment, in whatever way they

can. That includes all of us!

SPARK MOBILE SERVICE ISSUES

LIBBY JONES

Member Northland District Health Board

improved

coverage.

So, once again we have

poor service in the

middle of Kaiwaka as

well as in various other

areas in and around our

town. This has left

some with unreliable

or no phone service,

internet

connection,

medical alarms and

businesses

without

EFTPoS.

There are no outage

reports on Vodafone or

2 Degrees mobile sites.

To make matters worse, the Spark front line support people have been apparently

unaware of the network issues and have therefore been unable to provide reliable

information or useful advice.

WHERE TO FROM HERE?

Spark expects resolution ‘in a few days’ but hasn’t yet committed to a restore date.

Meanwhile they have recommended that Spark Mobile users contact them to discuss

options (yes, I know this might be difficult). Spark’s numbers are 0800 800 123 for

general service; 0800 22 55 98 for mobile faults, lost or stolen mobiles; and 0800

287 463 for businesses. They have a strong online presence too.

Kaiwaka Bugle - 24 January 2022

Page 13

KAIWAKA CAN

At last, the bridges are under

construction after the blessing on

Tuesday 11th February!

All going well completion will be mid-March. It is also great that the construction

company, Bridge It NZ, has been able to employ some local content to help.

Kaiwaka Can held the first meeting for the new year and laid out some guidelines

or goals for the 2022 year.

Some of these goals include:



The opening of the bridges - with the hope of some sort of light festival

including the making of lanterns by children. We are open to other ideas to make

this a day the whole community can enjoy.



McClean Park upgrades.



This includes a working bee to clean up some areas on the 20th February before

the bridge opening, sign boards telling the early history of the area and more

planting if needed.



Seeing some movement in planning for planting and walkway around the

peninsula from McClean Park and Eutopia, with the hope we may be able to start

something in 2023.



The resurrection of the ship lights from the southern wall of the building now

used by Small Pukeko's Early Learning Centre. At this stage we hope to place it

on the opposite bank to McClean Park.



We are also going to try to encourage more of the locals to get involved with

lighting up the town so we can regain the name of the little town of lights.



Welcome signs at each end of the town. Objective is to at least get the northern

one in place.



We are also hoping to organise another winter warm up tentative date

Wednesday 22nd June.



We are working on one other major project which we hope to announce soon.

With another year of uncertainty ahead this could prove to be a challenge, so we

welcome new members and people with a vision to moving Kaiwaka forward.

If you are interested in getting involved, you can contact David Wright at

pukepunga@xtra.co.nz or joining us at our monthly meetings held at the Archie

Bull Hall every 3rd Wednesday of the month.

Next Meeting: Wednesday 16 February, 5.30pm.

THE HANDBOOK FOR PLANTING TREES

FOR BEES ON FARMS

The Handbook for Planting Trees for Bees on Farms presents basic principles and

practical advice on how to plant the best pollen and nectar sources for bees. The

booklet show how farmers can include premier bee forage on farms or public

parks, lifestyle blocks, and gardens, covering ten different types of plantations:

riparian protection; land stabilisation; shelterbelts; paddock shade and shelter;

native bush biodiversity; roads, avenues, and laneways; amenity; edible

plantations; apiaries and beekeeper yards; and mānuka plantations. Each

plantation type is described with examples, illustrations, advice, and plant lists.

There is practical guidance on how to prepare a planting plan; balance and target

a bee forage profile; and establish a plantation. The steps for designing a good

bee forage plan include candidate planting lists, flowering calendars, and charts

for flowering diversity and abundance.

The Handbook for Planting Trees for Bees on Farms is available as a free

PDF on the Trees for Bees website at treesforbeesnz.org/handbook.

Limited softcover print copies are also available.

MAUNGATUROTO &DISTRICTS ROTARY

Like most organisations our local group

has been in recess for the past few

weeks but not before we had a fantastic

closing night, a summary of highlights

follows:

The Paul Harris Fellowship

Award

was presented to three

people:



Stella Clyde

for her work in the

community and with young people.



Keith Shadbolt

for his community

work in the environmental area.



Lyn Tetzner

who does an

incredible amount of background work

supporting Alex and is always involved

in our fundraising efforts.

The President’s Scholarship

recipients this year were:



Renee Allen

(she had been head girl

at Otamatea two years ago, and is an

excellent netballer),



Jaden Sheppard

(head boy last

year, who is very involved in the

Performing Arts) and



Bethany Hudson

(who was unable

to be present but has had a number of

articles published). It is great to be able

to provide some support to these young

people and it is always interesting to

hear from them in subsequent years.

Besides the work in the community, we

have also been involved with RYLA,

RYDA, and Duffy books. Duke of

Edinburgh and William Pike has seen

our support of younger people aiming

at building resilience.

Our driver mentoring scheme has

been popular with both younger and

older people. It has been good working

with People Potential and Roadsafe

Northland as they have both been very

supportive. We have also been

fortunate to have someone like

Dean Garnett taking care of the

car, ensuring that it is

roadworthy and warranted.

Speaking of this, we are now accepting

new recruits (and mentors if you feel

able to give of your time). Age is not an

issue, but clients and mentors need to

be double-vaccinated.

Satellite club

Both Grahame Carbery and Dennis

Emsley were congratulated on the work

they have done in setting up the

Satellite club at Mangawhai and an

extremely successful sailing venture.

Because of the large number of

youngsters involved they are going to

be splitting their sessions this year to

cater better for sailing ability. They

have also hit the ground running with a

fantastic

fundraiser

(Sandsational

event) on the 30 January with various

activities throughout the day. (More on

this next month.)

We had a very pleasant President’s

BBQ at Les Kenworthy-Thompson’s.

We appreciated Les and Shirley making

their place available as this is always a

great way to reconnect in the New

Year.

Our first major fundraiser is a Quiz

night at the Maungaturoto Country

Club on Friday 25th February – look

out for details which will be publicised.

Club Meetings

Remember, if you feel you can

contribute in any way to our Club, we

meet on a Tuesday in the Centennial

Hall, Maungaturoto at 6pm. Any

enquiries, please call Eileen – 021 142

0357

PIROA-BRYNDERWYN LANDCARE (PBL)

AUSTRALASIAN BITTERN

which we are lucky to have in our area

with recent sights in a few locations in Mangawhai and further north in the One

Tree Point area. Threatened–Nationally Critical with a population less than

1,000 in NZ. Mainly found in wetlands of Northland, Waikato, East Coast of the

North Island, and the West Coast of the South Island.

HAPPY NEW YEAR! We hope the

festive season was a good one for you.

COVID:

TRAFFIC

LIGHT

ORANGE

We've finally joined the rest of the

country at the orange level of the

current system. Yay! In the library,

nothing has changed from red, we are

operating with the same requirements

as before.

Sadly, we're now waiting to see what

happens when Omicron escapes into the

community, and how that affects

everything. Please know that if the

library needs to close at any stage, we

will do what we can to get books out to

you. Keep an eye on our Facebook page

(link below, you don't need to have a

Facebook account to view it) and get in

touch if you have any questions or need

assistance.

SUMMER

READING

CHALLENGE

There are just a few days left to get

your entry for the Summer Reading

Challenge in to us so you're in the draw

for the fantastic prizes. There are

separate competitions for adults and

children. Have you got your entry in

yet? Entries close Saturday 6 February,

and entry forms are available from the

library counter.

SUMMER CATALOGUE

Have you picked up your copy of the

summer catalogue yet? It's full of

recommendations

for good reads, for

all

the

family.

They're on the

counter

the

library waiting for

you.

PHONE

PROBLEMS

Apologies

everyone who has

been

inconvenienced by

the lack of phone

service

the

library in recent

weeks and thank

you

for

your

patience. First the

local Spark mobile

tower

was

vandalised

and

destroyed

January 2nd, and

Spark took a long

time to bring in

adequate

temporary

replacements (as I

type

it's

still

terrible

but

expected to be

improved by this

afternoon when a

second

mobile

tower is connected

to the network).

This

affected the

library's

phone, as it

is diverted

mobile.

When a call

comes

me diverted

from

the

library

phone all I

can see is

that

it's

coming

from

the

library, with

information about who is calling so

when I've missed calls, I can't call back

- and I've not been able to check

voicemail messages for a lot of the

time, either (though I can now).

And then our landline developed a fault

last week, and we had no internet for a

few days. Again, this is still waiting to

be fixed as I type, but I live in hope that

it will all be resolved by the time you

read this article. If you need to contact

the library, do still call the library's

number, and leave a message if I don't

answer. Or you can contact me on 027

480 6275 or at home 4312 725.

If you have been affected by the Spark

mobile outage, make sure you report it

to them so you can have a credit applied

to your account for the lack of service.

They have specifically said that mobile

customers need to get in touch, the

credit won't be automatic.

BOOK REVIEW

Did you read a good book from our

library over the holidays? I'd love to

hear about it. Drop me a line or two,

telling me the title and author, and what

you liked about it. Email, text, private

message on Facebook, or write it down

on paper and drop it at the library. It

would be wonderful to have reviews

from someone other than me!

I've read a stack of good books since I

last wrote in mid-December - how to

choose just one to tell you about?! It's

too hard, so I'm going to tell you a little

about the Kiwi authors in that pile... Ian
Austin  has  a  couple  of  detective-type
books  -  start  with  The  Agency;  Paul
Cleeve's  latest  title  The  Quiet  People
is  an  excellent  gripping  read;  Fleur
Beale gives a bit of an insight into late
-19th Century life in NZ, weaving real
people  into  her  fascinating  story  The
Calling;  Eileen  Merriman's  latest
novel Double Helix is again set around
Kiwi  doctors,  this  time  medical
students

who

are

themselves

grappling with a genetic illness
hanging over their heads.

All of these books are on our Rental

Fiction shelves in the library.

See you in the library ~Wendy

‘CORKER, Mary Joice (nee Fraser).

22/09/1922 - 8/01/2022 Much

loved wife of husband Roy (Robert)

Corker

(deceased).

Mother

Noeline, Fay, June (deceased), Robert,

Diane, and Donald. A cherished

Grandmother

and

Great

Grandmother. Remembered by

many for her Community Service

duties’.

Mary Joice Corker (nee Fraser),

passed away on January 8th, 2022, a

little short of her 100th birthday.

Mary came to Kaiwaka in 1949 with

her husband Roy and lived in the

Pukekaroro valley for nearly 50 years

before retiring to Saorsa Retirement

Village in Waipu, and then spending

the last 10 years in the Selwyn Park

Village in Whangarei.

Mary raised 6 children, gardened

prodigiously, and was involved in

many

community

organisations

including WDFF, CWI, Girl Guides

and Brownies and many others. She

frequently enjoyed fishing for mullet

and flounder at Point Ernie, with her

'spotted' punt, which is resting beneath

the mud and mangroves still, and was

always willing to pull out her

harmonica or accordion for some

music. She formed the 'Spice Grannies'

trio in Saorsa and was still entertaining

Selwyn Village residents until recently.

Mary would tell the story about how

when she first came to Kaiwaka, and

heard a car coming past, she would

check out the window, to see who it

was - how times have changed.

Mary had an old Gestetner (printing

machine) from which she would do

newsletters for Guides and Brownies,

and this was the forerunner of the

Bugle, which Mary started, with much

smudged ink and the instantly

recognisable clunking and rolling of the

old 'gestetner'. Mary was well known

for helping out with others, and well

into her retirement she still did

voluntary home help and supported the

Kauri Museum in Matakohe. There

will be many people throughout the

Otamatea area (and Northland), who

will have stories to tell, and fond

memories of Mary and her eccentric

ways. She will be greatly missed by her

children, grandchildren and great

grandchildren.

[We had the privilege of meeting with

Mary at in 2018, at the 40th birthday of

the Kaiwaka Bugle. Mary, as ‘Sharp as

a Tack!’ is on the front page of Bugle

No.9, 15 May 2018. Ed.]

won second prize of ten shillings playing

the mouth organ in a talent contest at the

Napier Sound Shell.
