LOCAL RUGBY AT ALL LEVELS!

2022 TYREPOWER SOUTH ZONE CHAMPIONS OTAMATEA HAWKS!

Final Score 29-23 taking the win over Mid-Western on Okara Park!

EASTERN UNITED JUNIOR MANAGEMENT RUGBY

We started this year with a truly massive turnout of children. It was awesome to see so many new families keen to give

rugby a go. More than 100 kids aged 3-13 which made up 3x under 7 teams; 3 x under 9 teams; 1x under 11 team and an

under 13 team. We haven’t been able to have an under 13 grade in our district for a few years so we were happy to have our

older boys who grew up playing for Eastern still being around to show our younger ones some great rugby skills!

We have been so lucky with many new coaches stepping up to help and guide our players. It’s a hard but great job so many

thanks to the coaches who give up their spare time to give the kids.

2022 was a short season being only 8 weeks. Rally Days were at Kaiwaka,

Maungaturoto and Wellsford. On Saturdays it’s been great to see a ‘sea of

blue’, an awesome feeling to know Eastern has grown into a strong and

great club to be in! So many people willing to help and create a great club!

As we had such a large number of players, we needed to purchase more

equipment and bags to help run the club - we put out a message for

sponsorship and we were blown away with all the businesses that gave a

hand up.

A huge donation of funds to our account from Henderson Shearing and

The Green Team was hugely appreciated. Orang-Otang Tree Trimmers,

Oilcon, Reflection Pools and Constructive Management Limited together

bought our first tackle bags for Eastern - our players have been using

Hawks goalpost pads for a long time so will be awesome to have our own

junior bags!

More sponsors: Jackson Brown Motors, C R Johnson who help purchase new balls

and tags; Intech Designer Kitchen for our very own Eastern Bottles for each team.

Player of the day sponsorship - Bridgestone Wellsford, Three Furlongs

, Waterboy; Step Construction, Mangawhai Natives

sponsoring prize giving trophies.

Prizegiving which will be on Saturday 6 August 11am at the Kaiwaka Sports Complex.

WEATHER

JUNE

Well! the winter rain has certainly set

in. Our poor lawn is now very soggy.

I’m not mowing parts of it for fear of

getting stuck. The deciduous trees have

now lost all their leaves. June was a

month with quite mild temperatures. So

far, we haven’t had any cold days.

The rainfall in June 2022 was 122.5ml

over 22 days.

The highest rainfall for the month of

June that I have recorded was in 2018

with 311.5ml over 15 days.

The least rainfall I have recorded for

the month of June was in 2012 with

only 50ml over 9 days.

We still haven’t seen any more

ducklings but I guess there is plenty of

time yet.

Keep dry people

Cheers ~ Karen

KNIGHT

OUTDOORS

Daniel and Jodi relocated to Kaiwaka

around six years

ago to be closer to

family and friends.

It took a good year

or so for them to

complete their barn

conversion,

now

they love it and

feel truly at home.

The

barn

relatively

small

however

with

Daniel having been

working in the

outdoor room industry for years, he

made a huge addition to their barn

almost doubling the square footage.

Jodi says, ‘the lifestyle here in the

country lends itself to cosy dinners at

home and barbeques in the sun shared

with those you love, having an outdoor

room makes sense’.

After working at Canvas Plus for some

time getting to know the locals, Daniel

decided he wanted to branch out and

start his own company helping others

enjoy the lifestyle he and Jodi love.

With Jodi on maternity leave with their

first child, it seemed like the right time

to get started and thus Knight Outdoors

was born.

Canvas Plus grew immensely in the

time Daniel worked there and they now

focus

big

commercial

projects

which

means they are

happy

recommend

Knight Outdoors

for the smaller,

intimate

jobs.

Knight Outdoors

specialise in outdoor rooms working

with a number of leading suppliers, as

well as upholstery and anything PVC

or canvas.

HOW DOES YOUR GARDEN GROW?

SALVIA AFRICANA: Still one of my favourite plants. Flowering

very early this year. I didn't cut this one back.

Not for any reason other than running out of

time. Maybe if I stagger the pruning, I can

extend the flowering. If you are one of those

who likes birds in the garden this is for you. The

waxeyes love it. I have a plant by my back door. There's

nothing quite like having a morning cup of tea counting

waxeyes drinking from these flowers. I have seen over 20

on one shrub. Busy as. And they don't fight. They seem

very happy to share. A wonderful example.

KOWHAI. The first to flower and one of the first plants

given to us when we came up here. I'm not sure which

variety it is. It is just over a metre tall and has a rather a

droopy growth habit. If I don't know the name of a plant I

give it the name of the person of origin. Hence this is

known as the Huia Kowhai. Quite fitting really as birds

love Kowhai. One of my great pleasures is watching the

Kereru chomping away at the fresh growth. Then the tui

battling over the nectar. Over the years their descendants

return. I've planted plenty of Kowhai and there seems to be

enough to go round.

ZONTA CHARITY BALL!

Kaye McElwain from

Ray

White

in the area for 17

years and has worked

than two decades as

an agent and business

owner. Today, she takes a break

from

Estate

market

commentary and talks about one

the

highlights

the

community calendar for Ray

White Mangawhai.

This is the second year running

Ray White Mangawhai has been

the major sponsor of the Zonta

Club of Mangawhai’s charity ball,

dinner, and auction held at the

Hakaru Hall. We want to

congratulate

all

the

women

involved in the Zonta Club who

produce this fabulous event,

transforming the humble Hakaru

hall into a venue of glitz and

glamour. With a Mardi gras theme,

ball-goers got into the spirit, with a

fantastic array of masks and bling. Not only did we dance the night away to live

music from the Renegades, but we enjoyed a fantastic meal from local caterers A

-Z Catering.

Our expert auctioneer Wayne Maguire, from Ray White Maguires One Group,

travelled North from Auckland to help raise more than $10,000 in the Charity

Auction. All the funds raised were for a great cause - the Zonta Club’s “Second

Chance” and “Spirit of Adventure” Scholarships.

If you’ve never been

to the Zonta Ball,

make sure you mark

it in your diary for

next year - it’s a fun

-filled local night

out.

~ Best wishes, Kaye.

KAIWAKA LIBRARY

DVDS AND BLU-RAYS ARE NOW

FREE, AND NO OVERDUE FEES!

As of 01 July, there are no rental

charges on DVDs and Blu-rays, and we

no longer charge overdue fees if you're

late returning them. (We haven't

charged overdue fees on books for

many years.) We hope this encourages

more people to use these collections

and enjoy the titles we're holding.

SALE BOOKS CHANGED

The books that were for sale in the

library entrance have been cleared out,

and a new selection of books are now

available. These are old library books

and unwanted donations seeking a new

life elsewhere. They are 50c each, or 10

for $2.50. What a bargain!

BOOK REVIEWS

Where to start?! I've read 9 books from

our library since I last reported here,

and they were all good! The best of the

bunch has to be They Both Die at the

End by Adam Silvera. "

On September

5th,  a  little  after  midnight,  Death-Cast
calls Mateo Torrez and Rufus Emeterio to
give  them  some  bad  news:  they're  going
to  die  today.  Mateo  and  Rufus  are  total
strangers,  but  for  different  reasons,
they're  both  looking  for  a  new  friend  on
their End Day. The good news: there's an

app for that….”

It's a lovely story, right

to the end. You'll find it on the New

Teen Fiction shelf.

Also of note is The Salaryman's Wife

by Sujata Massey.

This is the first

book in her Rei

Shimura

series.

Japanese-American

Rei Shimura is a 27-
year-old

English

teacher living in one
of  Tokyo's  seediest
neighbourhoods.
She  doesn't  make
much  money,  but
she  wouldn't  go
back

home

California  even  if
she had a free ticket
(which,  thanks  to
her  parents,  she
does.)

Her

independence

threatened
however, when a
getaway

ancient castle town
is

marred

murder..

This,

and its sequel Zen

Attitude are on the

Rental Fiction shelves in the library.

See you in the Library, Wendy

ACTIVITY AT ONERIRI CORNER

Work to improve the wastewater network in Kaiwaka began at the end of 23

May. For the first stage of this project contractors HydroTech Ltd are installing a

new pump station - the photo below shows the tops of the blue coloured station -

beside the south bridge on SH1, next to the Oneriri Road turn off.

Access onto the southern footbridge may be affected while the works are

underway. if this happens, HydroTech Ltd staff will escort pedestrians around the

worksite. The new pump station will support the flow of wastewater through the

main line, which has previously relied on gravity to push wastewater through the

network.

MAUNGATUROTO &DISTRICTS ROTARY

QUIZ FRIDAY 19 AUGUST

First of all, I hope you have

considered putting a team into

our Quiz on Friday 19th

August.

Teams of up to 6 people; Cost $15 per

person; Good prizes as well as raffles;

continuous nibbles; Team entries close

Monday 15th August; Doors open

6.30pm for 7pm start.

Proceeds will go towards the Youth

activities we support at Otamatea High

School (DOE and William Pike). To

enter a team, contact Nyree –

nyree.antunovich@otamatea.school.nz

or any Rotarian. This is sure to be a fast

paced, fun night.

YOUNG ENTERPRISE

Vipin Patel (Maungaturoto Four

Square) and I had the chance earlier

this month to be judges at a Young

Enterprise presentation by the Level 1

students at Otamatea High school. Four

teams had to decide on what facilities

could be provided to encourage visitors

to our area. They had four periods to

design their plans and five minutes to

present them. Once again, we were

made aware of the wide-ranging

abilities the youth in our area have and

which they are encouraged to develop.

CHANGEOVERS

We have had both our District and Club

changeovers in the past month. Our

District now has a new Governor, Matt

McLeod and our Club has a new

President, Les Kenworthy Thompson.

No doubt both these leaders will be

hoping for fewer disruptions in the

coming year. For our club, virtually all

our

projects

and

fundraising

activities

were

negatively

impacted last year.

Each

changeover

presented a focus on

what had been achieved

in the past year and what

the aims are for the

ensuing year.

In attending a District

Changeover,

one

made more aware of the

bigger picture of Rotary

– how it provides

programmes for the

younger people in our

community as well as

supporting

projects

offshore,

including

upgrades

water

supplies, provision of

better sanitation and

repairs

cyclone

ravaged areas. (For the

first time in the history

of Rotary International,

there is a woman at the

helm – Jennifer Jones).

SPEAKERS

There were two guest

speakers of note at

District Changeover –

the first was Jessie

Harman (a Director

from Rotary International). She spoke

about the different formats for Rotary

clubs now so that they can be more

meaningful for participants, e.g.,

Passport club, e-

clubs. She also

spoke about the

need to increase

diversity,

equity

and

inclusion

within clubs as well

as looking at ways

protect

the

environment.

The second speaker, Cat Levine

(pictured), has had a pilot project in

Northland - Promoting Tamariki

Mental Well-being. She now wants to

extend this throughout Northland; Her

topics include: Be Cool – introducing

students of concepts of emotional

regulation; Be Brave – strategies to

manage anxiety; and Be Calm –

strategies for Anger Management.

She believes that now more than ever,

especially post-Covid, youngsters need

to be given methods of managing their

stressors. This Trust has been set up

with a Rotary Grant.

It is interesting to note that many well-

known organisations were initiated by a

Rotary Club in NZ - Crippled Children,

Health Camps, National Kidney

Foundation; Riding for Disabled, to

name a few.

We look forward to a year of being

more active in our community.

EXECUTIVE STEPS

DOWN

Louise Miller, has

advised today that

she will step down

from her role as

Chief Executive of

Kaipara

District

Council on 28

October, after the

new Council is sworn in.

Mayor Dr Jason Smith says for the last

four years Louise has led Kaipara

District Council from the front and built

around her a great team that’s set

Kaipara on a better path.

“As Chief Executive Louise has

overseen with flair the transformation

of KDC to being a trusted Council

that’s capable of taking on great big

projects

such

planning

for

Mangawhai Central, generating the

Kaipara Spatial Plan and the District

Plan Review, building Pouto Road and

setting up the teams for delivering the

PGF unsealed road network repairs,”

says Mayor Smith.

Louise will spend time travelling in

Europe and visiting with family before

returning to New Zealand to find a new

adventure.

Kaiwaka Bugle - 25 July 2022

Page 19

In 1964, at 85 years Lily Linnell,

fourth and youngest daughter of

George and Mary Linnell (nee Hull)

of the early Kaiwaka history. Lily was

born 12 January 1880 and died 4 June

1974 ….

PART TWO:

In 1914 the war started and so many

went to that. Dick was going and went

into camp at Trentham at Upper Hutt. It

was a comfortless place, and a hotbed

of measles, flu, etc. Dick caught

measles and it turned to pneumonia and

he passed away after a fortnight’s

illness. Father and George went down,

and when it became serious, Forrie

(Forester Linnell) and I also went. We

brought him back to Hakaru and he was

laid in the cemetery there near Mother.

There are many more dear ones there

now.

The farm went on as usual. We

always had good vegetables, pumpkins,

marrows, etc., so we never wanted for

food and meat. Sheep or often wild

beasts were caught on the run. We

bought most of the run from different

Māori, which was not an easy job, as

there were so many owners. Some

would want to sell, and others did not.

It was dearly bought land, but it was a

good run with plenty of feed and water

and shelter. Stock did very well on it.

When I was fourteen, I had severe

sunstroke. We children were bathing in

the river below the Waihakari house,

and suddenly I got a most terrific

headache, and I struggled into my

clothes. I managed to reach the house

where I collapsed on the sofa. They got

the local practitioner, an Irishman, who

came and looked. He said I would be

alright in the morning, and to give me

some whiskey. He was having some

himself, I guess. I was in bed for

several weeks with mother looking after

me. My spine was contracted, and my

chin was up in the air. For years I could

not go out in the sun. In later years, a

doctor pooh-poohed the sunstroke and

said it was more likely to be infantile

paralysis. It may have been, but I was

lucky and thankful to get over it in time.

Our grandmother, Eliza Hull, was with

us at the time, and she fanned me

continuously which helped to keep my

temperature down. There was no ice or

cool drinks in those days.

It was the habit in our family to

always have family prayers morning

and evening, a portion from the Bible,

and the Lord’s prayer. In that way we

got to know most of both testaments.

After Mother went, Father continued

the habit. He had a small book he read

from. So many passages from the Bible.

Just enough and not too much. One

evening we were waiting for him to

start, he seemed extra slow, he then

said, “The bullocks have been in the

turnips a month”. George said quietly

aside “I’ve never read that before in the

Bible”. So, of course, the rest of us got

a fit of the giggles and, I fear, did not

remember the reading. I suppose Father,

looking

the

day,

suddenly

remembered where the bullocks were.

He did many things for other people,

and in later years was a lay reader and

drove or rode to Hakaru once a month

and held the service. Mother or I or

both always went with him, rain or

shine, over appalling roads. We were

always made welcome at the Ryan

[Hakaru] homestead for lunch.

I think it was for the South African

war that Father was asked by the

Government to buy suitable horses. The

men who went were mostly mounted.

So, he, and George too, went all round

the north buying them. They had to be

so many hands in height, and sound in

wind and limb. They found a lot. They

were brought to Waihakari to be passed

by a government man. A Colonel he

was called. I think he was just a vet. He

was a bounder, and had to be waited on,

hand and foot, with a bottle of whiskey

on tap to have a drink every half hour or

so. Several men trotted and cantered the

horses up and down in front of the

house. However, they were nearly all

passed to go to the war at the end of the

day. The “Colonel” invited Icie and me

to go back with him to Helensville

enroute to Auckland where he would

give us an evening’s gay entertainment.

We declined with thanks. I supposed he

imagined it would be a great treat after

being buried in the country all our

young lives! This

would be 1902 when

our

good

Queen

Victoria died and was

succeeded by her son

Edward VII. In that

war we ourselves lost

two

very

good

friends, Tyrell de

Labrosse and Henry

Ryan.

The farm went on slowly, and it was

gradually being brought in. Father,

coming from England, wanted to make

it like an old-country farm. So, a lot of

ploughing went on, and cropping, to

grow feed for the farm horses. It

certainly had the effect of making nice

clean grass paddocks, but it meant a

great deal of hard work for everyone in

the family.

Elizabeth Kate married Herbert

Leather. He was English, with a good

education and a wonderful memory,

especially for racehorses. I think he

knew the names and pedigree of every

foal.

Edith married Lovelace Bull, who had

been a sailor at one time.

Next in the family, George married

Augusta de Labrosse and lived at “Te

Ihu”.

Forrie (Forester) never married, nor

did I (Lilian Margaret – Lily).

Dick, we lost on his way to the first

world war.

The youngest, James (Jim) married

Mab Rice from Auckland, a friend of

our cousin Cecil Hull. Cecil was a very

clever woman who took her MA and

was a teacher at the Auckland (Girls)

Grammar for many years. She was the

daughter of our Uncle Frank Hull,

Mother’s brother. That family, Father,

Mother, and three children spent many

school holidays at Waihakari with us.

The country, though rough, was a

healthy change from town life. And we

sometimes stayed with them in town,

which was a wonderful change for us.

After mother died, Father and I, along

with George and Icie went for a trip to

England. We thought it would be good

for Father as he still had a sister and

two brothers living there. Icie’s

husband’s family (he was a

cousin)

were

living

Cheshire, so we stayed with

them, and the aunt in the lake

country, which was very

lovely.

Photo: The home of George F

Linnell and Mary Linnell (nee

Hull), built in 1867 on Ranganui

in the vicinity of the Kaiwaka

railway line. It was built of timber

cut and pit-sawn by George and

erected with the assistance of an

old sailor.

The first five of their eight

children were born there.

For a short time George was in

partnership in grazing and cattle

dealing with Samuel Clayton, on

land owned by Mrs Suzann

Clayton (Mrs Brayton in Jane

Mander’s book, “The Story of a

New Zealand River”).
