FEBRUARY 2023:

RAIN, WIND AND MORE RAIN!!

What amazing weather bombs we have come through, especially

on the 14th and 24th February! Still, count our blessings: our

transistor radio, our gas bottles - BBQ and hotplate, water from

our tanks, good torches, lanterns and even candles, AND

wonderful neighbours - especially those with a generator,

chainsaws, cell phone contact and a roast dinner! ~ LH

this with a win, at Aria, in King

who grew-up in Northland and on

Saturday he won over Gavin Mutch at

Taumaranui. Go well, Toa!

THE COMMUNITY COMES

TOGETHER

The last couple of weeks have seen some of the worst

conditions I have experienced. Wild weather high winds,

leaving downed trees, damaged roofs, slips, floods and

large periods of time without power in some areas.

The one thing that showed out was the way the

community came together. A big thank you to the

emergency services especially the Fire Brigade who

worked tirelessly at times in some very dangerous

conditions. Seeing people displaced from their houses

too damaged to stay in and clearing trees away from roads just some of the

duties they performed.

Then there were neighbours helping neighbours - organisations like the Revival

Church, Sports Assn, Kaiwaka Hall, St John staff and hall, Italian Bakery for

donating food to St John hall to hand out while it was open and others who

donated food to other organisations. Also, Beth and Barry for keeping Civil

Defence informed.

I spent a little time at St John hall and while there, a couple of Policemen called

in to see if there was anybody in need of help as they saw we were open. It was

a chance for them to catch a breath and a well-earned cuppa. After talking with

them one thing stood out and that was that although there were a number of

organisations helping it was a little confusing as to what was going on and

misinformation was being put out on social media, also

KAIWAKA

WEATHER

JANUARY 2023

Well, we certainly have had our share

of rain in the last half of 2022 and then

along came January 2023.

I stood in the pouring rain on the 27th

January, hoping to see and hear the

Elton John concert.

I even got wet feet in the bus on the

way to the venue – only to be told the

concert was understandably and

disappointingly cancelled.

Wet, wet, wet lawns, trees falling over

because their root system can’t hold on

to the soggy soil any longer and then

there was the horrible relentless wind

with it.

For the month of January, I

recorded 603ml over 16 days.

Derek Mason in the Hakaru Valley

recorded 450ml over 16 days.

I have heard reports from several other

people about their rainfall numbers

and they vary a little bit. Mangawhai

had nowhere near as much as

Kaiwaka.

January this year supersedes any

records I have ever recorded.

The last highest recording was in

2011 when we got 352ml.

The least amount recorded was in

2021 with a mere 9ml.

I can only hope that our Autumn might

be a little bit drier – however as I am

typing this I hear in the forecast, that

there is a tropical cyclone forming way

up in the north and heading for NZ,

beauty – just what we don’t need.

Our fruit trees have been hammered

and all the fruit was lost. The muggy

weather has ruined my tomatoes and I

hear that mine aren’t the only ones.

Take care of each other, folks.

Until next month!

Cheers, Karen

[We look forward to the next weather

report!]

AND HAKARU

CIVIL

DEFENCE

So far, we have been a very small team

of 2, with Wendy Howard posting

updates when she can. I don’t tend to

use the Civil Defence branding when I

do posts as I am not that techo and

think it is more important to get the

message out there where it needs to be.

We have been active nevertheless,

advising CD in Whangarei about needs

in our area.

We, along with Dianne from St Johns,

opened the St Johns Hall last Tuesday,

bringing down a generator to enable

people to charge their phones; using it

to keep a toaster going for people to eat

breakfast

etc.

have

been

instrumental in getting a small

generator in place at Hakaru for locals

there to charge devices and other

assistance is on the way for various

areas. Doing this important work in

emergencies is seldom glorious but is a

vital part of helping a community’s

recovery from emergency events.

We have had a couple of volunteers

come forward from this effort and will

be pleased to get a good-sized group

together in the near future. Once the

state of emergency has passed there

will be a debrief. After this, we will

hold a meeting of all interested people.

We would also like to take this

opportunity to thank Tawhiri Littlejohn

from the Kaiwaka Community Church

for all he has done, the ladies from the

KSA for opening up the showers, the

people in charge of the hall for

allowing use of the kitchen for meals

and Kirstie Brown from Kate’s Place

for making available charge points for

devices and for kindly receiving

donations of food etc for people in

need. Also, Ilia and Eve for the lovely

donation of the food they cooked, then

couldn’t sell because of the power

outage.

If I have forgotten anyone, I do

apologise. Lastly, we would like to

thank our wonderful communities of

Kaiwaka and Hakaru for all looking

out for each other, thereby making our

jobs easier. ~ Beth and Barry

THE COMMUNITY COMES TOGETHER

Continued from front page

the emergency services didn't have a

contact to get help for shelter and a

place to get meals etc for people who

were displaced.

At this month’s Kaiwaka Can

meeting this situation was discussed

and the group would like to facilitate

a meeting to organise a specific

group for the area that can co-

ordinate all the organisations and

work with Civil Defence. And to

have one source of information i.e.,

local Civil Defence Facebook page

to keep the community updated.

Emergency services would also have

one number to call for help or

information.

This group would also look at setting

up equipment to use in such events

like gas cookers, mattresses and

maybe a generator etc. Some of this

we have already acquired.

As I get ready to go to print Kaiwaka

Mangawhai is hit with another

deluge which turned out to be some

of the heaviest rain seen in the area.

This created absolute chaos around

the area with major flooding and

slips to most roads. Disrupting travel

plans and being stuck with no way to

get to their final destination, mainly

Mangawhai. Thanks to St John for

the use of their hall once more to

cater for around 40 to 45 people

giving bed and food. More pressure

was added when SH1 was closed at

around 2am and all traffic was turned

up Mangawhai Rd. Also, Ant and

Jess at Kaiwaka Four Square and

Raman and family at Caltex for

donations of food. It was also a

dramatic finish to the school day for

some students having to sleep at

school unable to return home.

Thanks to school staff and the many

who answered the call for bedding.

Well done, Kaiwaka!

A highlight and brief story of a

British couple who became stranded

treating it as an adventure and

couldn't speak highly enough to the

hospitality and help they received,

making a video of the staff and them

drinking tea at about 1am. Our local

Fire Chief even played a part turning

the ‘lights on to add to the video and

sending it off to family in the UK.

Kaiwaka has gone international!

Following the storms of the 14th and

24th February with all the damage to

roading and buildings around the

area it will take weeks if not months

to see thing back to some normality

and there will be inconveniences. I

urge people to be patient and work

with all the organisations to make

their job as smooth as they can.

Remember we are not the only ones

who are waiting to see results and

there are only so many staff to go

around but I hope all are safe and

take care.

David Wright, Chairman

Kaiwaka Can

STORM DAMAGE

Mid, our local Kaiwaka Fire Brigade

Friday afternoon 24 February.

Bottom, check out the large Kahikatea

tree opposite the Kaiwaka Sports Assn

driveway that was uprooted and

splashed across the northern Kaiwaka

stream, - now causing water to scour

the opposite bank as seen from SH 1

UPDATE: Afternoon Friday 24 February -

The Browns Road bus cannot get through to drop the children off today. We

have kept the children here and will look after them until someone can come and

get them ( 20-30 children were unable to go home).

Morning Saturday 25 February - after great community support everyone has

left the school safely. We are very grateful to everyone that contributed to

ensuring our tamariki and taitamariki had bedding overnight, warm meals in

their bellies and smiles as they left during this stressful period. A huge thanks to

teachers and whanau who stayed overnight

. ~ Sharlene

News from S. McCormick, principal:

BUILDING AWESOME WHANAU:

We are very excited to have the 'one and

only' Pio coming along to present

‘Building Awesome Whanau’ on

Tuesday 7th March. It will be a great

night with lots of laughs and lots of

good

tips

parenting.

This

presentation is open to all community

members so you don't have to have

children at our school to attend. We are

very lucky to be able to run this

presentation for free for whanau. The

presentation starts at 6.30pm but come

along early and share kai with us. The PTA are putting on finger food (dinner)

for whanau from 5pm and this will be a great time for you to meet the PTA

team. Please let the office know if you will be attending our ‘Building Awesome

Whanau’ night. - phone: 09 431 2309

SWIMMING POOL: Please leave the rocks in the filter in the swimming pool

as your find them. Pool users out of school hours have been moving the rocks

and this puts strain on the pump. If the pump blows up we will not have the pool

for some time. We are lucky to have a pool that the school children and

community can all enjoy. Please look after our pool so we can have it for many

more years.

Belongings - please make sure you check the changing sheds and take your

belongings with you.

SCHOOL GATES: If you are coming into or leaving the school during school

hours please ensure you shut the gates behind you. The gates need to be shut

between 8.30am - 2.30pm

Please remember your children can be dropped at school from 8.00am onwards.

This is a health and safety issue

New staff members: Maria Allan is a Teacher Aide working with a new student

and Ella Brunton who will be our ORS Funded Teacher for Term 1 while

Glenys Read is on leave.

Reminder: We are a nut free school.

HAVOC

Well the weather has certainly played

havoc with the start of our year. When

we look at some of the other parts of

the country, we have come off

relatively lightly. Yes, power has been

off for an extended time for some

people, and trees been unrooted (plenty

of firewood this year) but I am

concerned that we place so much

importance on cellphones and other

media that we have limited our means

of communication when the power is

off. We really must learn to be more

resilient.

I believe the President’s BBQ went

very well. President Les has such a

nice place for us to gather. However,

our first catered meeting had to be

cancelled because of the storm.

RYLA

For the first time in a number of years

we have had an applicant to attend the

Rotary Youth Leadership Course.

This is held early May at the Muriwai

surf club (hopefully if it is not too

badly damaged) and is not only a great

place to develop leadership skills but

many long-term friendships also come

out of it. We look forward to the report

back later in the year.

MANGAWHAI ROTARY

Another exciting piece of news is the

fact that Mangawhai Rotary, which

was a Satellite club of our own,

became a Chartered club in its own

right on 8th February and will have its

first official meeting as a stand-alone

club on 28th February. We would like

to congratulate this club for making

this step and we look forward to

hearing of their activities in the future.

I am sure we will continue to

help when more hands are

needed. It was unfortunate that

the golf ball drop of the Sandsational

event could not take place on the

allotted day (Because of the massive

slip behind the surf club) but this will

happen sometime in the near future so

don’t throw away your tickets (until

you have seen the results).

PAPAROA A&P SHOW

A number of us were able to help

Paparoa Lions manning the gates (and

working on the indoor section) at the

Paparoa A&P show. It was unfortunate

that a shower on the Friday night made

parts of the venue quite damp and a

further shower on the day was not

helpful.

However, there did seem to be a large

crowd in attendance, and all spoken to

enjoyed their day.

Remember, if you would like to join

us, or you think there is a possibility

we may be able to help you, please

don’t hesitate to get in touch -

‘A LONG DAY AT THE OFFICE’

Tuesday, July 16th 1963

From the diary of Brian Linnell – Chair of

Otamatea County Council

“Up at 4am and got away at 5.15. Met Trevor Smith &

Jim (Council Staff) at Kaiwaka on our way to

Wellington. Arrived at Whenuapai about 7.15am.

Plane took off late at 8am. Owing to weather, Rongatai

was closed, and we were landed at Palmerston North.

A bus trip of 3 1/2 hours via Paraparaumu. We arrived

at Parliament Buildings about 1.15pm and found that

our appointment was arranged for 2.30pm (Our

original appointment had been at 11 am).

We had a meal at the Railway Station and Harold

(Council) joined us just before our appointment. He

had gone by train. Mr Goosman *(Government) gave

us a very good hearing and complimented us on our

submissions. He said that if our story was true, our

complaints would be rectified. Mr Mackay and Mr Halley were in attendance.

We had about 1 1/2 hours of interview.

We then had to report to the Air Centre and were told we would be flown back

to Palmerston North, but they couldn’t give us a time. We hung about until after

5pm then were bussed to Paraparaumu, where we had a cup of tea and stayed

nearly an hour. Then on to Palmerston North arriving at 8.45. We waited ‘till

10pm for takeoff. A good flight and we landed about 11.30pm. Home and bed

by 1.30am.

Quite enough for one day.”

William Stanley Goosman (Hon Sir), 1890-1969, was MP for Waipa, Minister of Works,

Minister of Transport & Marine, Minister of Electricity. Retired 1963. KCMG 1965. Source:

RAIN, FLOODING, AND ALL

THE REST

I hope you are getting back to 'normal'

after all the weather events we've had

lately. As I type this last Friday, it is

pouring down again, a week and a half

after Cyclone Gabrielle.

If you have library items checked out

at the moment, and the weather and

conditions have impacted your ability

to read or return them, let me know

and we can extend your borrowing

period. The library system has already

extended the dates for everything that

was due between 7 and 28 February,

from when we had to close temporarily

the other week. At the very least, don't

panic - just let us know.

VACANCIES IN THE TEAM OF

VOLUNTEERS

Would you like to join our friendly

team of library volunteers? You need

to have basic Windows skills, and have

regular access to your emails. There

are a few days available at the

moment;

send

kaiwaka.library@gmail.com to get in

touch.

TUTU COLLECTION OF THINGS

Have you taken a look at the new Tutu

Collection yet? These are 'things' that

you can borrow from the library for

free, just like a book. It includes card

games, board games, programmable

robots, a knitting machine, a sewing

machine, telescopes, and more. Just

added to the collection is a magnet

activity set (contains small parts that

could be a choking hazard) and a

compact telescope.

You must place a hold to borrow these

items, so they can be sent to us from

Dargaville Library. A search at

Enterprise* of just the word Tutu will

bring a whole lot of results

And did I mention that it is FREE to

borrow these items?

AUTUMN CATALOGUE

The Autumn 2023 will be with us very

soon. Watch out for it appearing on the

library counter, and take your free

copy. I've had a sneak peek at it, and

there's some great reads to be found.

BOOK REVIEW

Recently, I've read Better The Blood

by Michael Bennett. "Hana Westerman

is a tenacious Māori detective juggling

single motherhood and the pressures of her

career in Auckland’s Central Investigation

Branch. When she’s led to a crime scene by

a mysterious video..."

This was an

excellent read - I'd have finished it in

one sitting if I hadn't had meetings

scheduled

the

afternoon,

started it. Bennett

award-

winning

screenwriter, and

this is his first

novel. The book

is on the Rental

Fiction shelves in

the library.

See

you in the library

GARDENING

FOR THE

YOUNG & OLD

Autumn is fast approaching! “Season

of mist and mellow fruitfulness”.

Who wrote the Ode to Autumn? Never

mind I do know it wasn’t James K

Baxter!

Well, so much for the ’Season of mist

and fruitfulness’ - in comes ’Hale’

followed closely by ’Gabrielle’.

Absolute waterlogged ground and

massive destruction, battered shrubs,

ornamental trees and garden plots -

both flower and vegetable.

The clean-up begins: smallish sticks,

leaves, etc can be raked into piles and

then chopped up by running the motor

mower (with catcher on) over them -

great mulch for the compost bin.

We in the mid-north got off

comparatively lightly following the

storm, however fruit and vegetables

will be in short supply and very

expensive. The answer is simple -

grow your own. You do not need a big

area around your dwelling.

If you haven’t a vege patch you can

create one very simply by going to see

Hayden and Susan at ‘Twinkle Tow n’

Tyre’

and

asking for

their

old

tyres. You

only

need

two or three

placed

top of each

other

and

filled with

bags

compost/

vegetable

mix;

add

some blood

and bone fertiliser and you have an

easy to manage vege garden.

What to plant? Easy - broccoli, bok

choi, cauliflower, cabbage, winter

lettuce, leeks and sow parsley seed to

provide fresh leaves this winter and

spring. Parsley is full of goodness with

both minerals and vitamins.

Finally, this month it is time to pick

your plums, apples, peaches and other

stone fruit - if they haven’t been blown

off in the storms.

Continue picking your runner beans

and have a dig in the kumara patch

with your hand to see how the tubers

are progressing.

Until next month, have fun in the

garden. . ~ Mr Jo

Kaye McElwain from Ray

White

Mangawhai

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.

Today she gives some top tips on how

to weatherproof your property.

Northland may have been the first

region to feel the wrath of cyclone

Gabrielle, but compared to other parts

of the country we didn’t get the lashing

unleashed elsewhere.

Despite power outages, all our current

listings weathered the storm and were

able to continue with buyer viewings.

With weather forecasters warning other

significant weather events could be on

the horizon, what can you do to future-

proof your home for a storm, especially

if you have plans to put it on the

market?

Here are a few pointers, which will

protect your property and also help it

appeal to future buyers who will now

be more discerning when it comes to

flood and storm protection.

●

Understand how water moves

around your land and home

Ideally, you’ll want water to run

away from your dwelling and not

accumulate around it. If you notice

water accumulating, you may want

to look into ways of correcting the

slope, or rock swales to assist water

flow away. This also applies to

gravel driveways.

●

Planting for wetlands or

flood zones

If your property does have a

wetland or is located within a flood

zone, minimise stock grazing in

problem areas, ensure there are no

structures

that

could

cause

blockages and get advice on what

plantings work best to assist free

draining.

●

Keep Drains, Gutters, and

Downspouts Clean

Ensure that the drains, gutters, and

downspouts are clear. This involves

clearing them of any debris like

leaves, dirt, sticks, garbage, etc. so

that water can flow freely.

●

Water Tank Access

To ensure that your family can

access water particularly in a power

cut, it is advisable to ensure you

have an ancillary water tank with a

manual access valve (tap) or have

such a valve installed between your

primary tank and the water pump.

●

Elevate and Secure Any

Outside Equipment

Just like you should keep indoor

equipment safely elevated above

predicted flood levels, the same

goes for outdoor equipment. Things

air

conditioning

units,

generators, fuel tanks, etc. should

not only be elevated above flood

levels, but they should also be

anchored and secured to something

so they cannot break free or float

away.

●

Do Some Dry-Proofing

Performing some dry-proofing work

around the house can go a long way.

This is done by applying some

sealing materials or coatings around

vulnerable areas such as walls,

doors, and window creases.

●

Maintain Your Garden

Ensure all trees in your yard are cut

back with dead branches moved

away from your house.

Don’t hesitate to call me if you have

any questions regarding real estate or

what’s going on in our local property

market. Take care, Kaye 027 215 2016

THE LAST NOTE

FOR DOUG

Doug Leslie who passed away on 16

February, was an avid reader and

supporter of the Kaiwaka Bugle - he

Doug, born in March 1932, was one

a wonderful mine of information.

A farmer, he was a long time rugby
