DOG TRIALS AND LANTERNS
Congratulations Scott
McRae and Cory on
winning the South Is
Championship Class II
(Short Head & Yard)
Heading event earlier
this month.
Scott,
our
local
Molesworth
Sheep
Dog
Trial
Club
president, finished in
the top 7 of 250
competitors then went
on to win the event.
Scott, developed a
passion for trialling
when shepherding as a
youngster in the King
Country, more than 30
years ago - much of
that time farming on
the Oneriri Peninsula.
Scott has a history of doing well at National events without
taking out the top placing. He won the event working
Merino lambs which are very different to our Romney
sheep.
Staring 30 May Scott and a contingent of Northlanders are
competing at the National Championships being held in
Taumarunui.
Matariki is a time to gather with whanau
and friend, celebrate new life,
remember those who have passed, and
plan for the future.
Kaiwaka’s Lantern and Light Festival
walk starts at Kaiwaka and will weave
its way around Kaiwaka township.

CALTEX SERVICE STATION LINE UPGRADE
The workers were surprised to find another layer of concrete below
the surface paving. Mark was able to say that the earlier station
burnt down. Question - what was the date of that event?

Friday 3 June, 7.30pm
British comedy-drama film directed
by Roger Michell. Dealing with the
1961 theft of the Portrait of the Duke
of Wellington, the film stars Jim
Broadbent, Helen Mirren
“The fact that it was a real story made
it the interesting story it is,” Broadbent
says. “Because no one would have
bought it if it had just been a fiction.
This nutty idea about this strange man
who had stolen a picture from the
National Gallery is too unlikely to be
real, but the fact that it is real made it
so interesting.”

World Wide Knit in
Public Day
Better living through stitching together!
Every year on the second
Saturday in June, World Wide
Knit in Public Day aiming to
encourage knitters to come together and
enjoy one another’s company. It’s also
a
day
for
experienced knitters
to teach others how
to knit.
Knitting
is
no
longer the province
of the elderly but
has been taken up
by all ages as a way
to create something
lovely, to promote
social change, and
to spend some time
peacefully
meditating as they
knit
one,
purl
one ...
KAIWAKA
WEATHER
APRIL
I hope you have enjoyed
the Indian Summer?
We have had a very mild month of
April. The showers have been frequent
but quite welcome as the gardens and
lawns are looking much better for it. I
have noticed several fires being lit now
that the fire ban has been lifted.
Our total rainfall for April 2022
was 133ml.
We recorded rain over 14
days. 96ml fell over 9 days from the
18th to the 26th but in amongst that the
23rd of April was a most beautiful
Autumn day after a cloudy start.
The most rain recorded at our
place for the month of April was
in 2017 when we got 224ml and
the least recorded was in 2012
when we only got 28.5ml.
The temperatures are still very mild but
are starting to cool off in the evenings.
The trees that have got any leaves left
on them, are finally changing colour
and dropping their leaves everywhere.
Now for a bit of trivia: How many
stubbie beer bottles laid end to end,
would it take to go from one end of a
rugby field to the other? Answer – 603!
Cheers ~ Karen
Nine members were present at
the monthly meeting which was
followed by the AGM.
One minutes silence was

OTAMATEA
REPERTORY
THEATRE
Time to dust off the cobwebs and
announce that there will be
FURTHER AUDITIONS for 'The
Revlon Girl',
by Neil Anthony
Docking, (90-minute play).
A group audition will be held on be
held on Sunday 12 June 1pm - 3pm, at
Otamatea
Repertory
Theatre,
Bickerstaffe Road, Maungaturoto.
The Play is based on the true events of
the 1966 mining disaster in Aberfan,
Wales, 'The Revlon Girl' tells the story
of four mothers grieving the loss of
their children.
Warm, sorrowful, and surprisingly
funny, this Olivier Award nominated
play is a story of survivors, small-town
bickering and the redemptive power of
make-up. It contains coarse language.
"Grief, anger and community all blend
together flawlessly"

KAIWAKA CAN
Kaiwaka Can held it's AGM this
month with the officers rolling over for
another year. David Wright Chairman,
Pablo Garcia Vice Chairman and Jean
Guttery as Secretary.
The previous year has seen major
projects completed, creating many more
to go on with including the
development of the new portion of
McClean Park and walkway/cycleway
to link the 2 walk bridges going around
the peninsular.
MCCLEAN PARK 1947
McClean Park 1947 is slowly taking
shape and it is noticeable how more and
more people are making use of it. It is a
shame though to see we have a few in
the community who want to disrespect
the park and the people of Kaiwaka by
trying to destroy all the hard work put
in tearing up the grass with their
vehicles.
LANTERN
AND
LIGHTS
FESTIVAL
We have also decided to start what we
hope will become an annual festival
The Kaiwaka Lantern and Lights
festival, to also incorporate Matariki.
As we have had a late start on this, we
have decided to start with a taster
running on the
evening 24 June
2022
. This will involve the local school
making lanterns and in the evening
walk with them from the school down
to the park and over the foot bridges
finishing at Eutopia. Any others who
would like to join in are most welcome,
dress in lights or make your own
lantern. Or just come along to see the
display. From this we will work to
make the event larger next year and
hopefully have the whole community
involved. Now is the time to put
Kaiwaka back on the map as ‘The
Little Town of Lights’.
PROJECTS AHEAD
We also have a number of other
projects to move on with so if you
would like to get involved in the
community projects don't be shy come
and join in. At our working bees we try
to make it a social event, so it is a great
place to meet and get to know others.
Watch our Facebook page for details.
Meetings 3rd Wednesday every
month at the Archie Bull Hall 5.30pm
to 7pm or email pukepunga@xtra.co.nz
for details

willingness to assist others, a valid full
car driving licence and the willingness
to have a police vetting check.

FERRET BOUNTY $100 DEAD OR ALIVE!
PIROA-BRYNDERWYN LANDCARE
Ferrets are a worrisome predator
because they can attack adult kiwi as
well as juveniles- so anytime a ferret is
spotted or caught- the alarm bells go off
about potential impact on the kiwi
population in our backyard.
Piroa Brynderwyns ask that the
community alert them of any sightings
of ferrets and the location where they
saw them- so the volunteer trappers
have the best chance at removing them
and any other members of their family
in the vicinity. Ferrets when sighted are
a key menace to the survival of kiwi
and other wildlife in the Piroa
Brynderwyn Hills.
A $100 bounty is being offered by PBL
for ferrets - dead or alive will be
collected to assess age, sex and review
capture site. The ferret sighting or
capture must be within 5km of the PBL
boundary (check our website for details
on this).
A big call out to Emily and Liam who
recently caught a ferret on their land at
Waipu. Both Emily and Liam are
passionate about NZs native flora and
fauna and improving biodiversity on
their land and the surrounding area.
They have had traps on their property
for 18 months - a few mustelid traps
and 1x live capture trap. Catching the
ferret in March was a surprise as they
have mainly caught feral cats and
possums in the traps to date .

MAUNGATUROTO &DISTRICTS ROTARY
WALKWAY
Four of our Rotarians spent a Sunday
morning upgrading part of the walkway
at the Maungaturoto Country Club to
make it more easily accessible for
people with pushchairs.
Thank you to Stella, Gael, Tim and
Keith for your efforts in this area. This
will make the area much more
accessible, especially in the wetter
weather.
CYCLE WAY
While Covid has meant that our
planned trips have not taken place,
there was a group of individuals who
met at Matakohe Hall and cycled
down to Tanoa*. This was a great way
for a like-minded group of people to
meet and appreciate the beauty
of our countryside and the
Kaipara Harbour whether their
bikes were the traditional ones
or E-bikes. It is this aspect of the
fellowship of Rotary that enhances the
community service we are involved
with.
Some of our members were able to join
those who attended Anzac Day services
and laid wreaths both at the Dawn
Service in Maungaturoto and the mid-
morning service at Matakohe
STRAY DOGS
There has been an issue with dogs
roaming in Nikau Grove, Hurndall
Street
Maungaturoto,
and
we
understand some people have been put
off enjoying this fantastic resource.
However, with the help of KDC we are
hoping this matter has been addressed.
There will be a sign going up soon
stating that dogs in that area must be on
a lead. It is important that we, as
Rotarians, are made aware of anything
that happens here or at Piroa Falls that
detracts from the ability of people to
make full use of the facility we have
provided, so please let us know of your
concerns.
Any enquiries, please call Eileen – 021

*Tanoa: The Otamatea Marae is on
Tanoa Road. The Tanoa School was
established just east of the Marae in
1876 - 1957, and the Kakaraea Church
which was opened in 1874.
PTCA
: Thank you to our hardworking Otamatea High School PTCA
members for their generous donation of $6000 towards new library books and
furniture. This is very much appreciated. PTCA stands for Parents, Teachers and
Citizens Association and welcomes anyone in our community who can spare
time and skills to help this amazing group with fundraising activities that benefit
our children. Your commitment can be whatever you are comfortable giving so
please contact the school if you would like to join, or simply help out from time
to time with fundraising events.

RURAL DESIGNS TRIP:
Friday 27th May, the Level 1
Primary Industries and Year 10 Green to Gold classes went to
Rural Designs in Kaiwaka to learn about their native plant nursery. Blake
Worsfold, himself an ex-student of Otamatea High School, was our guide for the
tour. Students learned about the sustainable vision of the company and the work
that goes into producing native trees. We would like to thank Blake and Rural
Designs for taking the time to give us an informative and entertaining
experience.

KAIWAKA SCHOOL
DRUMMING: Kaiwaka School had some amazing African
Drummers visit the school. All students were given the
opportunity to have a go on the drums and start learning how
to drum. Even the staff of Kaiwaka School had a turn.
Robert Koffie Fugah runs the Kadodo Drum and Dance
School and visits Northland Schools once a year. We try to
get him in annually because it is such a fun experience for
the students.
KIDZ BOP: We have our annual Kidz Bop /
Kaupapa Kori dance competition coming up on
Wednesday 6 July at the KSA.
This will be the third year we have run this event
and are expecting the level of dance to be even higher this
time round.
Students can enter in a group or as an individual. We
welcome family to join in the fun and this year we have
some guest performances... all will be revealed on the day!
If there are any community members who would like to
enter - that would be awesome! ~Michelle Dempsey
WAKA:
Students are now receiving WAKA
cards – ‘caught being good’ instead
of SHARE hands. The school
community were surveyed late last
year and early this year for feedback
and staff and students were also part
of the discussions. It was decided
that the waka reflects our school
especially with the beautiful waka at
the front of our school. The values
that waka stands for reflects our
schools goals and strategic planning.
W = whakaute / respect
A = aroha / love
K = kaitakitanga / protecting our environment
A = Ako / learning together
YELLOW LINE:
The yellow painted line that can
be seen from the KSA and up to
the school is to assist those with
sight impairment
PHIL LEES has now joined the
staff. He is teaching students in
Room 7 - Ruma Nikau.

LISTEN TO LIFE ON
THE KAIPARA
Kaiwaka Library Manager Wendy Howard was pleased to
accept a copy of a new CD last week when she met with
local artist Luciana Orr.
‘Forgotten Tales of the Kaipara’, is an intriguing, recorded
compilation which shares the social history of a region, told
by five longstanding Kaipara locals.
Orr recorded and compiled this project which was created
with the support of Creative Communities funding. She has
gifted copies of the CD to libraries in the Kaipara region and
publicly funded organizations in the Kaipara like schools,
can request the MP3 version for free.
What happened to the promising boxer who ventured into
Tapu Bush? Where are the lost babies of Paparoa buried, and
why?
“These stories uncover cultural pathways that give meaning
to our past and inspire who we are today. I wanted to make
them accessible and to create a record of time, people and
place.” said interview curator Luciana Orr.
Kaiwaka local, Ngāti Whātua Kaumātua Ben Hita, shares
stories from his youth at Poutō.
‘Our job at night was to catch the eels and the old people
would come in and split them all. They were huge, they
would have been 200 round, you know, big horns on their
heads. We were told not to handle them…”
Stella Clyde of Paparoa, tells of her father’s contribution to
early radio on the Kaipara, and Matakohe born Joy Bonham
recalls the revered Toheroa expeditions. Pete Panhuis,
knowledgeable guide at The Kauri Museum, recounts tales
of early days in Matakohe, Paparoa and Ruawai.
“He slipped between two logs. It was like going through a
ringer and he injured his back severely.
They brought father home lying on a stretcher…”
Pahi local Kerry Bonham remembers a rebellion in Ararua
that reached the ears of the world.
Copies of the MP3 version can be purchased by emailing the
artist and a limited number of CD’s are also currently
available.
Based in Matakohe, Luciana has a qualification in Audio
Engineering and a strong interest in culture and heritage
preservation. Spanning over thirty years, her work as an
illustrator of heritage architecture has captured in perpetuity,
many buildings of historic significance.

ALBERTLAND HERITAGE MUSEUM
29 May 2022 was the 160th Anniversary of when the first two
ships sailed from Gravesend for Auckland. The Matilda
Wattenbach and Hanover had a total of 688 passengers between
them and set sail on the 29 March 1862. With great excitement,
the settlers began their journey looking forward to what lay
ahead in the settlement known as ‘Albertland’. After a perilous
sea voyage and a two-week journey from Auckland to Port
Albert they were met with huge disappointment which was
relayed in a letter to family in England by Mrs Judson when she
described exactly how they felt upon their arrival, ‘New
Zealand was described as a paradise or a fairyland – an
illusion that was rudely dispelled when the first settlers were
landed at Port Albert and Paparoa.’ With tough times ahead
much needed help was given by Rev. Gittos and the local Māori
people. The settlers’ skills as carpenters, farmers, dressmakers,
wheelwrights, and joiners (to name just a few of the
occupations listed) were quickly put to the test as they set about
building shelter and growing their food

HOW DOES YOUR GARDEN GROW?
THE VEGETABLE GARDEN:
I have been working in the vegetable garden. I was taught the amount
you take out should be put back each year. Sounds good and
sustainable. But few of us are blessed with perfect soil. In Oneriri we
have clay and limerock. We inherited a depleted farm paddock. So we
build up our beds each year. Lots of compost of course. And layers of
comfrey, miscanthus, corn stalks and anything from the garden. Plus from our
worm farms. The occasional rabbit and possum is buried in a bed having a fallow
time. And then there is what we call vile water. More like vile stew. A barrel of
cow, horse and sheep poo. With some lovely greens. Comfrey, docks, and
anything else that takes my fancy.
Winter is a good time to do this house
keeping. With winter veg coming on
too. Brassicas, broad beans, spinach,
and lettuce. All our salad greens are
doing well lily. These have responded
to the recent rains.
TAMARILLO:
As for growing
them. Not so hard really. A sheltered
frost-free site. They naturally grow in
forests so lots of leaf mulch. Other than
that, I don't feed them but do water
occasionally in the first summer. They
are
short
lived.
About
5
years.
Every year
I put a new
tree in to
keep
the
cycle
going. Propagate by seed or cutting. I
do both.

IT’S NOT ALL DOOM AND GLOOM!
Kaye McElwain from Ray White has lived in the area for 17 years and has
worked in real estate for more than two decades as an agent and business
owner. Once a month she writes a column with commentary and analysis
on our local real estate market.
Today she explains why our local market is still buoyant.
If you’re keeping an eye on the media at the moment, it’s easy to
come to the conclusion that now is not a great time to put your
home on the market with rising interest rates and inflation hitting a
record high since inflation rates have been recorded in New
Zealand.
However, despite this doom and gloom report, locally the market is still punching
above its weight. At Ray White Mangawhai we’ve just achieved our best ever
trading month since we bought the
business nearly a decade ago. All of
our salespeople sold at least one
property,
including
one
at
auction. Shane Romani also deserves a
special mention for achieving one of the
highest ever sales for a home in
Mangawhai, with a Tern Point sale
fetching $4.35 million.
Last month we also welcomed first
home buyers, Demi and Caleb, into the
Kaiwaka
community,
with
their
purchase of 112 Gibbons Road,
showing that despite the market
reportedly being stacked against first
home buyers, it’s still possible to get
your first foothold on the property
ladder.
Feel free to call me at any time if you
have any questions regarding real estate
and how we can help make your
property dreams a reality.

A GREAT DAY OF SPORT:
Teams
from
Kaiwaka,
Tomarata, Maungaturoto and
Wellsford gathered at the
Kaiwaka sports grounds. This
was Eastern JMB’s (Kaiwaka)
turn to host the Un 7, Un 9, Un
11 and Un 13 games of rugby.
Along with parents there were
many grandparents enjoying the
sunshine
and
the
great
community spirit.
What a pleasure it was
to
see
the
great
organisation, the team
works
and
the
youngsters
enjoying
themselves yet always
ready to help.
The chips and hotdogs
went well with Mark
and Lindell. And the
team manners at the
‘after function’ were
brilliant.
