‘Dane said he hasa new appreciationfor women after

seeing what we gothrough.’FIANCEESARAHSMITH

All Black Dane Coles, whogrew up in Paraparaumu, ishaving one of his biggest testsyet, following the birth of hisfirst child.

Having left his Lyall Bay-based home for the All Blacks’end of year tour on Sunday,Dane is relying on social mediato keep in daily contact withhis fiancee Sarah Smith, andtheir five-week-old son JaxRonnie Coles.

“It’ll be pretty hard havinghim away on tour for the nextfour weeks, but after that he’llhave a month off,” said Sarah,who gave birth to the pair’sson at Wellington Hospital onSeptember 26.

“I’m used to him beingaway because it’s been a steadyadjustment in ourrelationship, from him makingthe Lions, to the Hurricanes,and now the All Blacks.”

Describing Jax’s birth as a“pretty special experience,”Sarah had a fast but intensefour-hour labour that saw hercontractions start around 9am,and end with Ronnie born by1pm.

“Dane said he has a newappreciation for women afterseeing what we go through,”laughed Sarah, who describedher partner’s parenting styleas “very attentive”.

“We didn’t really knowwhat to expect so it was prettyoverwhelming, but he wasamazing, and might have had alittle tear.”

With Jax’s middle namechosen after Dane’sgrandfather, the mini rugby-fan-in-the-making is describedby family and friends aslooking most like his father.

“The first two days with Jaxwere pretty full on, and thenDane went away for a week,”Sarah said.

“When he came back fromAfrica, it was kind of a time forus to adjust as a family and tryto get a routine going.”

Engaged and set to marry inDecember next year, afterbeing together 10 years, thenew parents had a taste fortheir son’s rugby enthusiasm

when Sarah was pregnant.“I’d be watching Dane play

on television, and obviously bea bit excited or nervous, andJax would be kicking in mystomach, and everyone said hewas cheering on his dad.”

With the game in Brisbanethe first All Black match seenby Jax, during a night-timefeed, the pair watched as Danescored his second try.

For Dane, who will take hisyoung family over to the UKnext year if he is selected toplay for the Rugby World Cup,there is no game quite asrewarding as parenthood.

“Being responsible for aperson’s life is pretty scary,but just knowing I’m a father ispretty special,” he said.

Dane, who felt “a lot ofhappiness and relief” whenJax was born, said foremost hehopes to instil traits in his sonthat will see him grow up to be“respectful, humble and enjoylife”.

“It’s been pretty hard notbeing there, and being awayyou see how much theychange every day, and reallynotice how much they’vegrown.

“We’ve had great supportfrom both our families,which makes things a loteasier, and luckily Sarahunderstands the job I’m in.

“So far she has beenbeyond awesome, I’m veryproud of them both.”

Molly’s public muzzle will stay onDAVIDHAXTON

A menacing classification on aEnglish bull terrier, which wason a lead when it attackedanother dog in a public reserve,has been upheld by the appealscommittee.

A report says dog ownerStephen Scott was sitting on aseat in the Wesley Knightreserve at Paraparaumu Beachwith his English bull terriercalled Molly, who he had on aleash, when an off-leashlabrador called Brody, owned byKerry O’Brien, wandered over.

“Brody was one to two metresaway from Molly when she

lunged at him and latched on tohis face,” animal control teamleader Julie Foote said.

“Brody was yelping as Mollyremained latched to his face andwas trying to shake him.

“This went on for about oneminute.

“Mr Scott was trying to breakthe grip Molly had on Brody’sface.”

Brody, who needed vettreatment to clean up a puncturewound to the face, made a fullrecovery, she said.

A council investigation,which discovered Molly had a“history of behaviour” similarto the park incident, led to Molly

being classified as menacing as amatter of public safety.

Mr Scott appealed themenacing classification and gotdog expert Jo Goddard, fromCanine Solutions, to inspectMolly who recommended theywork with the dog to help hersocial skills.

“We would like council tooverturn the classification onthe basis Stephen will continueto muzzle Molly until we aresure she is safe around otherdogs,” she wrote.

But the committee upheld theclassification when it met onThursday.

Mayor Ross Church said, “We

can never be assured that dogwill be safe, no matter how goodthe experts are, there is stillgoing to be a risk with that dog.

“I’ve got a report that says thedog isn’t currently safe, andnobody will ever be able toconvince that it is safe aroundother dogs, there might beanother incident.”

Cr Gavin Welsh said if anincident happened, it was deeplyunfair that the person who hadtheir dog under control wasresponsible.

“However, as a dog owner, Iaccept the laws of the land, and Iaccept the fact even though it isdeeply unfair, that ultimately

this council has a responsibilityto ensure the public and the dogsare safe - that is the bottom line.

“Ultimately when things gowrong, they can go deeplywrong.

“As yet, I see absolutely noevidence within the papers I’vegot in front of me, to suggest wecan safely allow that dog out inpublic without a muzzle.”

For the rest of her life, Mollymust now have a muzzlewhenever she is in public.

There are 85 dogs classified asmenacing in the district.

There is a $300 fine if a dogclassified as menacing is foundin public without a muzzle on.

Brothers celebrating freedom

A FEW YEARS AGO: Tony and George Juchnowicz. PHOTO: KAP201014SPLBROTHERS

On November 1, 1944, 733 Polish childrenand 105 adult caregivers from war-grippedEurope sailed into Wellington Harbour,among them brothers George and TonyJuchnowicz.

They were sent to a camp in Pahiatua,north of Wellington, where they remainedfor five years and grew to treat it as homeaway from home.

Antoni (Tony) Juchnowicz is enjoying apeaceful retirement in Waikanae.

Not many of his neighbours know aboutthe horrific experiences his family wentthrough during World War Two.

Born on November 3, 1939 in Brzesc,Poland, two months after the outbreak ofWorld War Two, Tony has no memories ofthe war.

His brother, Jerzy (George) was onlythree, but remembers the day whenGermany attacked Poland in 1939.

“I remember the Stukas coming over andbombing everything. I can still see the deadbodies lying in the streets. And I rememberGerman tanks crossing the bridge. Not longafter that the Russians came. My fatherworked for the government and he was awaya lot. He came home after the Russiansattacked and I remember him and hisyounger brother digging a big hole in theground and burying some of our valuablesthere. I bet it’s all still there,” he laughs.

Soon after that the Russians startedtaking military prisoners and begansystematic deportations of civilians tolabour camps in Siberia and Kazakhstanwhere thousands died due to hunger, diseaseand cold.

“They rounded up my whole family, myfather, mother, grandmother, my brotherJohn, my sister Mary and my youngerbrother Tony who was just born.

“I remember going on a train and whenthe first woman died they opened the doorand threw her body out while the train wasmoving,” George recalls.

Over two million Polish citizens, mostlywomen and children, were forcibly removedfrom their homes, loaded onto trains andtaken to remote parts of the USSR, manynever to return to their homeland again,among them Tony and George’sgrandmother who died in Siberia.

When Hitler attacked Russia in 1941,Stalin announced an amnesty setting allPolish citizens free and allowing a PolishArmy to form within the Soviet Union.

Given permission to leave, most Poleswent south, getting away from anotherhorrible Siberian winter. The Juchnowiczfamily almost reached the borders of China,and then went to Uzbekistan where thePolish Army was forming. Later they shifted

with the army to Persia.For some, freedom came too late. By that

time the boys’ mother was very sick anddied shortly after arriving in Persia. Theirfather soon followed and the four siblingswere taken into a Polish orphanage inIsfahan, where they stayed for two years.

In 1944 the Polish Army was moving tothe front in North Africa and Italy andthousands of Polish children had to bemoved from the orphanages to safer places.Some went to Kenya, India, Mexico, Canada,and a group of 733 were invited to NewZealand by the then Prime Minister PeterFraser. A former POW camp in Pahiatuabecame their home for five years. Althoughtheir army barracks accommodation wasrather spartan, each child had his own bedwith a pillow, a blanket and clean linen.

“I remember my first holy communion,”Tony recalls. “I was about seven. We had togo to confession and the priest asked ‘Whowould be the first?’ No one wanted to go first,so we all looked at our teacher. She went andspent at least 20 minutes at the confessional.”

When the Pahiatua Camp was disbandedin 1949 to make room for the displacedpersons coming from Europe, the childrenwere sent to boarding schools and fosterfamilies. Tony and George were among theyoungest boys who ended up in HaweraPolish Boys’ Hostel where they attendedschool.

After high school George got a job at TheEvening Post in Wellington and when it wassold to The Dominion he worked for theBank of New Zealand. He married his campsweetheart, Helena and they had one son,Zygmunt who now lives in Waikanae. In1974 George made a trip to Poland and on hisreturn was employed at Trust Bank.

“When I worked for the Trust Bank Ibuilt myself a house in Paraparaumu whereI lived for seven years before buying a smallfarm in Wairarapa. I later joined theDeerstalkers Club and we once came toTuatapere (Southland) on a hunting trip. Iloved it so much I decided to shift there.”

After several years in Tuatapere, Georgemoved to Otautau and then to Lumsden,where he lives today.

Meanwhile Tony went to St Patrick’sCollege at Silverstream, Upper Hut and laterqualified as a pharmacist. In 1959 during hisapprenticeship in Wellington he met a Kiwigirl, Wendy, who later became his wife. Witha pharmaceutical diploma in his pocket hewent on his big OE, first to Australia, then toLondon, where he worked at a pharmacy inEarls Court. While in England he made atrip to Poland. He returned to New Zealandin 1963 and married Wendy in 1964. The

couple bought a pharmacy in Pahiatua andran the business together for 33 years. Theyhad three children — Mark, Paula andRachel who grew up in Pahiatua.

In 2003, at the age of 63, Tony sold hisbusiness and worked as a locum until he was70. The couple purchased a motor home andtravelled around New Zealand looking for anice place to live. They came to Waikanae,where their nephew was living and fell in

love with the place.In April 2012 they bought a house there

and have enjoyed living in this small coastalcommunity ever since.

Of the four Juchnowicz siblings whocame to New Zealand in 1944 only Georgeand Tony are left today.

On Saturday they will celebrate the 70thanniversary of their arrival.

MUSCHOOLSTUDENTS

With Paraparaumu School’smuch-anticipated 125thanniversary around the corner,talk of the school’s colourfulhistory has brought in a collectionof old log books, personalrecollections, and black and whitephotographs.

Kapiti’s smallest yet oldestschool, which opened in Januaryof 1889, is one of the coast’s mosthistorical entities, offering aglimpse into early Kapiti life.

Notably different to itsoperation today, ParaparaumuSchool’s early days saw its firstclassroom built on skids andboasting a half iron and shingleroof, with a roll of 15 boys and 11girls.

Prior to its much-neededopening on the coast, a town thatwas predominantly farm land atthe time, children travelled bytrain to Paekakariki, whichfeatured the only school south ofOtaki.

Following gradual expansionover the years, due to fluctuatingenrolment numbers and a growingurban community, ParaparaumuSchool reached hardship duringWorld War One, resulting in ittemporarily closing in 1916.

The closing of the schoolbecame a regular occurrence overthe years, due to a series of fataloutbreaks of illness includinginfantile paralysis, whooping

cough, diphtheria and influenza,all illnesses which are today wellcontrolled.

In 1920, the Health Actinstigated a scheme that gaveprimary schools authority todeliver annual in-school medicalexaminations, and by 1956immunisation in New Zealand hadbeen developed. The firstimmunisation injections weredistributed to ParaparaumuSchool in September of that year,following a national initiative thatintroduced dental treatment toschools in 1923.

In February 1941, with the helpof the Waikanae and Reikorangidistricts, Paraparaumu School’sfirst dental clinic was built, wherethe school’s dental team stilloperates today.

During the late 40s and 50s,Paraparaumu received apopulation boom that saw schoolenrolment sky rocket, due toincreased post-war birth rates,property development andimproved access to Wellington viaroad, rail and air.

A Paekakariki side school wasestablished to cater to theflourishing rolls, with 51Paraparaumu School childrentravelling there for schooling.When the roll increased to 301,another side school in Raumatiwas opened in 1949, and in thesame year land was bought tobuild Raumati Beach School.

From there, 1965 saw the

introduction of ParaparaumuBeach School, followedby Raumati SouthSchool in 1970, KapitiSchool in 1973, andKena Kena School in1977.

ParaparaumuSchool, which held itslast major celebrationevent in March 1989,when it welcomed itscentenary, continues tosee a small yet steadyroll of 200 to 300students.

The school celebratesits 125th anniversary onNovember 8.

The vision forKapiti’s future

This week sees thestart of a process bywhich you — ourresidents — can helpestablish the visionfor how Kapiti willdevelop for the next 20years.

The end goal isalready set — we want avibrant, diverse and thrivingDistrict. But the “how we getthere” needs to be worked out,and that is why we areopening the doors of Councilfor you to help.

Workshops are about tobegin for Council to startlooking at its Long Term Plan(LTP), which sets the strategicdirection for Council and thecommunity from 2015-2035. Itlooks particularly at our wayahead over the next threeyears.

This plan has a real effecton the pocket all of ourratepayers.

It outlines what projectsand programmes we willinvest in and therefore affectsour rates, what capitalexpenditure we must budgetfor, and our level of debt.

Already, muchgroundwork has been put in.

We began by creating areference group of 21members in May to ensurepublic perspectives werelistened to.

The group, chaired byformer Privacy

Commissioner, Marie Shroff,has a cross section of theKapiti community, includingrepresentatives frombusiness, youth, elderly,sporting, rural, disability,environmental and arts/culture groups.

It focused our attention onthe outcomes our people want,namely a thriving economy, adiverse community,community participation,strong partnerships and wisemanagement of public funds.

It shone a light on thepriorities needed to achievethose outcomes.

We must improve ourCouncil performance,including being ‘open forbusiness’ and communicatingbetter; we have to deliver coreservices efficiently; and wehave to improve ourengagement with thecommunity.

The group did such a greatjob feeding communityperspectives back to Councilthat we are going to continueworking with them. Theirmost important role will be toact as a conduit between

Council and thegroups they representso we continue toreceive goodfeedback.

Now, theworkshops will moveus into a new level ofdetail as we plan for

the future.The workshops will run

every Tuesday and Thursdayinto early December (timesand dates can be found atwww.kapiticoast.govt.nz<htt-p://www.kapiticoast.govt.nz->) which people can attend asobservers and listen asCouncil discusses balancingwhat we will do while keepingour costs and rates at levelsthat are acceptable to thecommunity.

This is part of a busyprogramme of workshops,public meetings,communications andcommunity engagement thatwill deliver a new LTP in Junenext year.

Council is serious aboutconsulting with thecommunity so while a fulldraft LTP will be available toanyone who wants it, we willhave a shorter, more user-friendly consultationdocument to make it mucheasier for people to have a say.

I encourage you to haveYOUR say. Together, we canshape the vision for our futureKapiti.

Our story continuesOne of the objectives of RetirementVillage living is togive people the time to do the things they want to do, asopposed doing the things thatmust be done; such ashousemaintenance,mowing lawns and developing gardens.One of themost popular leisure activities enjoyed bykiwis is gardening.With this inmind and given theTrust’s Sevenoaks-Midlands Gardens retirement village isspread over 16 ha of land, thismonth we enjoyed ourfirst ever village flower show.Masterminded by our grounds’manager Kevin Pritchard (well-known in Kapiti gardeningcircles for his expertise in all things growing) and ablysupported by his team, the two day event was a fantasticexample of theTrust’s strapline –“ALifestyle to Enjoy”.

There was something in the show for everyone.While there weremany entries which well-deserved theirhighly commended certificates significant results were:

• Best bloom –picked by residents from their villa orapartment gardens - winner Christine McCaffrey

• Best vegetable allotment, won by Rex Ford(Midlands GardensAllotments) and Bill Moffatt(SevenoaksAllotments) with further judging atcropping time early next year.

• Best street appeal garden – judged by a walk throughthe village by external judges.This was a tough calland not one I would have liked to havemade.Winners were: –Muriwai Court –Mayme Chanwai;Midlands Gardens –Marjorie McGregor; Sevenoaks –Lynn Hanns,TheApartments – Billie Young

• Best Hanging Basket – Bert ten Broeke

• Best Indoor Potplant –AnnWarner;

• Best homemade preserve – Beverley Kirbell; keenlyjudged by our expert in good taste – GroupManagerSupport Services – David Blair

A great buzz came from the production of multiple‘scarecrows’.What started out as a small part of theoccasion, over recent weeksmorphed into somethingwith a life of its own.Most were produced by thevarious staff teams that operate within the Trust;the grounds team of course,maintenance, clinical,housekeeping and administration staff. Then there werethose created by residents in the village, bymembersof the Nikau Club (our day respite centre); from KauriHouse, (our secure dementia wing), the Lodge(aged care hospital) and our ‘GoodMates’Club’(a group of men in our hospital whomeet regularly)who won the category with their scarecrow“Steve”.

They were just amazing. Each teamwas provided with alife sized, woodenA-frame and the scarecrowwas builtaround this. Imaginations went wild. Papier-mâché heads,gloves filled with plaster with power tools set into them,telephones stuck to ears, glamourous skirts – the detailwent on and on.They were put on display in our centralhallway and the ongoing hilarity they caused and thediscussions which arose were a delight to listen to.

Over the two days the venue, the Sevenoaks recreationcentre, was a hub of activity as it was transformed intoa fit-for-purpose venue. Blooms were displayed in budvases thanks to the generous support of the KapitiHorticultural Society. Our Lifestye and Leisure teamwhoprovide an ongoing programme of activities for residentsin the Lodge, along with some of our extremely generousvolunteers, provided endless Devonshire teas and hosteda sales table and a range of great raffles – all generouslydonated.The event was formally opened by theTrust’s Chair JohnAburn and was so very well attendedby village residents, families and supporters.

The event was a wonderful example of staff and residentsworking together, ably supported by our volunteers,local businesses who provided prizes and raffles and judgesfrom the Kapiti Horticultural Society. Kapiti RetirementTrust is of the community and for the community andthis event demonstrated howwell this works.

Community onthe agenda

Cr Penny GaylorEnvironment and CommunityDevelopment Committee

View fromthe Chair

As I was in the last triennium, I have theprivilege of being the chairwoman of thecouncil’s environment and communitydevelopment committee.

Couple that with being the Otakiward councillor, and I’d have to admit Ihave my dream job.

Deputy chair of the ECD committee iscouncillor Janet Holborow.

All members of the council sit on thecommittee, and Reiner Solomon is theMaori representative.

Each community board has theability to have a member sit at the tableand contribute to the discussion, butthey don’t have voting rights.

The committee is where councilmembers formulate and massage policydevelopment, where we flesh-outstrategy, construct and debate oursubmissions into Governmentlegislation processes and other localgovernment agencies, and the numerouscommunity groups across our districtwhich receive council funding reportback to the committee regularly.

The Kapiti Youth Council, KapitiOlder Persons’ Council, and theCycleway, Walkways and BridlewaysAdvisory Group also report back to thecommittee.

As a result, the committee ends uphaving an incredible range of topics andchallenges, and I’ve found thecommittee is where councillors have areal opportunity to set the ‘agenda’ onhow council responds to emerging socialand environmental issues.

For example, last year I arranged forthe agenda of one meeting to essentiallybe a housing forum where we heard arange of presenters representing all thedifferent facets of housing issues in ourdistrict.

And this year when communityconcern was erupting all around thecountry over the local sale ofpsychoactive substances, I was able tobring the matter on to our agendapromptly and the committee was able to

debate the issues raised by ourrespective communities and develop thecouncil’s approach for responding.

As the committee title also suggests,environmental matters are also a focus.

In the last couple of weeks, I co-signedthe Waikanae River EnvironmentalStrategy with the deputy chair of theGreater Wellington Regional Council,councillor Barbara Donaldson, ademonstration that some of the work weundertake is in partnership with otheragencies.

Recent acknowledgments of KapitiCoast District Council’s commitment toenvironmental sustainabilitydemonstrates the success of thecouncil’s policy and strategy work,which has been in place for severalyears now, and we continue to supportit.

In June, council won its second GreenRibbon Award for reducing greenhousegas emissions, recognising council’ssuccess in decreasing its absolutegreenhouse gas footprint by 48 per centsince 2010 through a range of energy andwaste minimisation initiatives, whichare part of council’s CEMARScertification programme.

In May, council won the New ZealandCommunity Award and the PublicSector Award at the EECA awards for itsproactive approach to energy saving andemissions reduction and for engagingstrongly with the community on energy-saving initiatives.

The committee’s work certainlyshowcases the variety of issues that areconfronting our district, and which ourcouncil is offering leadership on.

CEO’s reviewsees sparks flyDAVIDHAXTON

Two councillors asked to leave a meetingthat discussed the work performance ofcouncil chief executive Pat Doughertywas not a case of kicking them out, MayorRoss Church says.

The chief executive performance andemployment sub-committee is chaired byMr Church and comprises councillorsDiane Ammundsen, Murray Bell, PennyGaylor, Janet Holborow and GavinWelsh.

The public are excluded from the threemonthly meetings.

Councillors David Scott and JackieElliott went to Thursday’s meeting andsat in the public gallery but were soontold by Mr Church to leave the room.

Mr Church told Kapiti News the sub-committee number was voted on bycouncil at the start of the triennium.

Three months ago, Cr Elliott, Cr Scottand Cr K Gurunathan asked it they couldmake submissions to the sub-committee.

“Officially we didn’t have to let thathappen but we did, we opened it up andsaid the rest of the council can talk to thesub-committee but when Pat is back inthe room that’s then closed from the othercouncillors and it goes back to the sub-committee.”

Mr Church said Cr Elliott wanted toknow [at the meeting] what legal reasonthere was for her and Cr Scott to have toleave the room.

He said he told them the council hadvoted the chief executive would beassessed only by the subcommittee and asa good employer it wouldn’t be good to goback on that decision.

“But she of course wants to buck the

system so she said ‘oh you’re kicking meout’ but we’re not.”

“We’re just saying these are the rulesunder which it was established and I’msticking to the rules as a good employer.

“So I offered her the opportunity tospeak and put her point of view, and Ioffered David Scott the opportunity, butonce I had explained it to them, they saidthey didn’t want to talk about it orwhatever and stood up and left the room.

“It’s not a case of kicking them out, it’snot a case of stopping them having theirinput, it’s simply as a good employer wehave to stick to the rules that we allestablished as council.”

In a statement, Cr Elliott said “Weattended as our standing orders say,under section 2.12.2, that elected memberscan attend any meeting of council, unlesslawfully excluded.

“We are able to attend all other subcommittee meetings except this one.

“We have tried our best to test thecontinuous exclusion of all electedmembers from this committee, as we wishto fully represent the public as theirelected representatives.”

Cr Scott said all councillors weretasked with the employment conditions ofthe chief executive.

“If we’re not allowed to be there — howcan we carry out this function?

“I’m very annoyed about it.”The Annual Report to June 30, 2014

states Mr Dougherty received a totalremuneration of $293,150 (2013: $285,00).

“This was comprised of an annualsalary of $278, 400 and full use of a councilvehicle and other claims (includingFringe Benefit Tax) of $14,750,” the reportsaid.


Vision’s good butkeep feet on groundAftershock. That’sthe title of a 2008documentaryabout theaftermath of aserious earthquakein Wellington. ThatGibson Groupproduction had asignificant impacton viewers. Themost disturbing for me was the story of astranded group trying to make their wayby foot from Wellington City back hometo Kapiti. This memory must havesurfaced from some crevice of my brainwhen, in a knee-jerk response, Ivolunteered to take part in the Lions’Wellington to Kapiti Walk. The projectintends to raise civil defencepreparedness. Belatedly, I realised thetrek was a 25-mile a day ordeal over twodays. And I had not walked a two milestretch a whole year. I was not fit for whatlay ahead. It was too late. I had put up myhand.

I started taking my dog for a daily two-hour walk along the Waikanae River. Inmy late teens I had spent some time in aBuddhist monastery. The head monk wasa specialist in a technique called walkingmeditation. The crack of dawn would seea line of saffron-clad skinny monksfollowing this chubby all-knowing-one. Idiscovered a paradox on my walk alongthe Waikanae River. This is where theproposed Expressway meets the river.Work is under way to span the waterway.Heavy machinery doing heavyengineering work. In the midst of this, onboth sides of the banks, NZTA havefenced off and kept the popular two-metreaccess way for walkers, cyclist and horseriders. I saw an elderly lady, with her tinydog on a lead, walk gingerly through, andkids cycling to school.

This gauntlet through a highlydangerous work place is a bizarre sight.

Normal life caught within an abnormalreality. For a majority of us, we aremerely pedestrians passing by. We get aglimpse of the enormity of theExpressway project at strategic windowswhen the juggernaut shows its face whereit interfaces at Poplar Ave, Kapiti Roadand Ngarara Road. But for many who livecheek-by-jowl along the route of thisjuggernaut the dust, noise, vibration, andloss of privacy are a daily experience. Therain was falling gently that Mondayafternoon when, on a whim, I decided todoor knock and talk to an affectedresident. She was at the driveway. Tiny ina large hat.

Busy gardening. You must be a seriousgardener to be working in the rain, I say.“I do it in self defence,” she replies.Raising a garden to block off theharshness of the heavy engineeringtaking place around her home. Notenough to ignore the jolt of a drop to herproperty value in the recently releasedvaluation.

She has only kind words for thecontractors and project staff. “They havea job to do and they are cordial and kind,”she adds but her narrative includes wordswith emotional depth charges. Marooned.Eye of the storm. Accept but can’tembrace. And then, that tellingobservation about how the Greater PublicGood waxes by cannibalising the rights ofthe individuals. I have my own word todescribe this fallout from the decision bypoliticians. Aftershock.

Thank you forrelieving the painSo many people to thank —volunteers, members, businesses,mall owners and donors in localcommunities across New Zealand,who helped make our recentannual appeal a success.

Your contributions will help usto help the 530,000 New Zealanderswho are living with arthritis,including 1000 children!

We are still counting buthoping the $300,000 mark will beachieved.

As well as providing financialsupport, this week also gives us theopportunity to raise awareness ofthis chronic health condition thatis one of the leading causes ofdisability in our country.

There is no cure for arthritis,but it can usually be managed, andmost people with arthritis cancontinue to lead productive andfulfilling lives.

We lead the way in providingawareness, education, services andadvocacy for arthritis in NewZealand.

We offer seminars, clinics,workshops, and other servicesthroughout the country.

Advice is also available duringbusiness hours by phoning0800 663 463 toll free.

If you missed our appeal, youcan donate $20 by phoning0900 333 20, or you can donatethrough at www.arthritis.org.nz

Thank you again for yoursupport.

Water chargewrong?Kapiti Coast District Councilinfrastructure services groupmanager Sean Mallon says that hiscouncil is able to charge a 10 percent late payment penalty on watermeter charges (Kapiti News, Oct 8).

I challenge him to provide thelegislative authority under whichthis decision was made.

It is my understanding councilshave statutory authority grantedby the Rating Act to charge 10 percent late payment penalties onunpaid rates.

The council has to resolveevery year how these penalties willbe applied, but the authority isfrom legislation, not the councilitself.

As the council has decided toremove a uniform water chargefrom rates and instead charge eachindividual property on a user-paysbasis, this no longer falls under theambit of the Rating Act.

While the Local GovernmentAct allows councils to restrictwater supply when relevant by-laws have been breached, it givesno authorisation to charge latepayment penalties.

As such it would appear to bewrong for Mr Mallon to claim thatbecause water was previouslycharged as part of general rates,

the statutory authority to chargelate payment penalties remain.

In view of the council’s recentbad record in decision making, Ihave my suspicions that despiteMr Mallon’s assurances, thecouncil have not got it right thistime regarding the 10 per centwater charge penalty.

TERRI CAWTHRAParaparaumu

■ Council infrastructureservices group manager SeanMallon responds:

The cost of water is nowcharged as a separate rate fromgeneral rates, but it is still atargeted rate and covered by theLocal Government (Rating) Act2002.

As with general rates, there area variety of ways people can paytheir water rates and these arelisted at www.kapiticoast.govt.nz/water-charging

There is also a water ratesremission of up to $120 perhousehold for those who havemore than three dependents (18years or younger) living at theirproperty, receive a Working forFamilies Tax Credit and whosetotal water charges from July 1,201,4 to April 30, 2015, are morethan $311. For a full list of criteria,go to www.kapiticoast.govt.nz/policies and look at the ratesremissions policy document.

Applications can be made fromMay and forms are available atcouncil service centres.

Because water charges are arate, council can charge a 10 percent late penalty payment onunpaid charges. However,ratepayers are given an extra 20days from the due date of theirwater invoices to pay watercharges before the late penaltypayment is put in place.

We welcome anyone wanting todiscuss their water rates orgeneral rates with us to phone296 4700 or 0800 486 486 to talk orarrange a face-to-face meeting.

Yvonne displays her journey’s workCLOEWILLETTS

CAPTURING THECAPTIVATING: Maraeora is aself-identity inspiredphotographic work by Raumati’sYvonne Tunnicliffe, who isamong a group ofphotographers displaying theirwork The Photo School’s end ofyear exhibition next week.

PHOTO:KAP221014SPLEVEPHOTOGRAPHY

An end of year exhibition for ThePhoto School is being held inWellington at Newtown’s FlashDog studios next week, fromNovember 6 to 9.

Raw, an exhibition showcasingworks from students and tutors inthe first, second and third years ofWhitireia New Zealand’s Bachelorof Applied Arts degree, willinclude award-winning imagesfrom this year’s New Zealand IrisProfessional PhotographyAwards.

The Photo School, a boutiqueeducational provider that alsodelivers classes at Porirua andKapiti’s Whitireia campuses,offers courses on the Kapiti coastfor national and internationalstudents, who predominantlystem from the Kapiti Coast andWellington region.

Raumati’s Yvonne Tunnicliffeis among the group of buddingphotographers displaying work atthe upcoming exhibition, and isset to incorporate works from hercollection Toto.

“Toto explores the conceptualand visual elements of self-identity, and uncovers theimportance of understandingwhere we come from,” saidYvonne, who started the PracticalCertificate in Photography in 2011.

During a photographicexperience on a local marae,Yvonne realised her knowledge ofher whakapapa and protocol waslacking, and as a result decided toexplore the subject further.

“The concept behind my work

has allowed me to create ratherpersonalised imagery dealingwith my mihimihi, or genealogy,with the imagery having served asan inspiration for furtherresearch, discovery andawakening.”

A dedicated member of ThePhoto School family, Yvonne’sstrength lies in documentaryphotography, with alternativeprocessing also a predominantfeature in her work.

Through her photography,Yvonne said she has “embarkedon a journey to understand andmake sense of who I am and whereI come from”.

Toto, a body of work she hasbeen working on throughout theyear, uses blocks of colour assignifiers amid her works.

“Red, the blood, is theconnection with my whanau,” shesaid.

“White is the known and theknowledge I have so far, whileblack is the unknown, and theknowledge I am yet to discover.”

WITH EXERCISE — THERE’S NO TIME LIKE THE PRESENTIf ever there was a time to getinvolved in health and fitness it’snow.

The weather is getting warmer,the days are getting longer andthere are numerous events on thecalendar if you are the kind ofperson that needs a goal to keepyou motivated.

It’s also a good time of year toplant your vegetables and starteating seasonally and living off thelittle bit of land you may have.

Even growing herbs is a greatway to start if you don’t have muchof a small holding.

Here’s my five big tips if you’restarting to get into a new healthand fitness regime this summer.

1. Get prepared and exercisein the mornings.

It’s so much more rewarding todo your exercise first thing so youdon’t have to think about it all dayand do it after work. Lay out yourworkout clothes the night before

then when the alarm goes off putyour exercise gear and get out ofthe door before your mind has achance to workout what yourdoing.

2. Get other involved.Having others to help motivate

you is a good way of starting andstaying on track, beingaccountable to someone other thanyourself helps keep thatmotivation on days when you justdon’t feel it. Organise your weeklydiaries together or even set up aFacebook page with a small groupto keep everybody on there toes.

3. Incidental exercise counts.The family bike ride, the round

of golf and time spent in the gardenis just that little bit of extramovement that your body craves.Don’t just feel like you’ve doneyour exercise and you have earnedthe right to blob. Every bit of extramovement burns calories andimproves overall well-being.

4. Grow some vegetables.Growing veges is great for your

new eating regime because notonly is it healthy but it tastes somuch better when you’ve grown ityourself. The kids can get involved

in the garden and learn how food isgrown and you can have tomatogrowing or relish makingcompetitions with your friends(My garden rules).

5. Make it fun.Whatever you choose to do this

summer make sure it’s fun. Playsocial sport, be active with friendsand family and generally makemore movement part of your life.Find healthier recipes for the BBQthis summer, catch your own fishand have fun doing it.

Make your health your wealththis summer.

ArmisticeRSA serviceKapiti residents have been invited toattend this year’s Armistice Day service atParaparaumu RSA & Community Clubmarking the end of World War One on 11November 1918.

Nearly every family in New Zealandwas affected, with 10 per cent of ourpopulation of one million people overseas,more than 18,000 killed, and 40,000wounded.

It was a terrible price to pay, with NewZealand recording the highestproportionate casualty rate of any BritishEmpire country.

RSA president Chris Turver sayspublicity surrounding the WWI centenaryhas heightened public interest in familyhistory, encouraged research to trackdown relatives who served, and to find lostfamily medals.

“World War One, and particularly theforging of the ANZAC spirit at Gallipoli,gave us a deepening sense of nationhoodas our country began to stand on its ownfeet.”

Mr Turver says “what’s reallyheartening is the growing interest by ouryoung people in the sacrifices made tomake our country what it is, and standsfor, today.”

The half-hour Armistice Daycommemoration service will be held at11am on Tuesday, November 11 alongsidethe Memorial Gates in Tutanekai Streetwhich record the names of Kapitiservicemen killed and wounded.

For the first time the cadets of No. 49(District of Kapiti) Squadron, Air TrainingCorps, will mount the guard of honour.

Paraparaumu RSA is working withKapiti Coast District Council throughoutthe four-year centenary programme forWorld War One to ensure events likeANZAC Day and Armistice Day receiverecognition and respect.

“It’s important we take the time toremember the huge sacrifice the people ofKapiti made during this terrible conflict,”Mayor Ross Church says.

Strengthening our patchInternational expert JimDiers will be speaking atthe NeighbourhoodStrengthening workshopin Paraparaumutomorrow.

The workshop is open tothose who are interested inconnecting communitiesand what communities canachieve when they build ontheir own resources.

“You don’t want to missthis event if you care aboutyour community and wantto play your part in makingit better,” that’s accordingto Mayor Ross Church.

The venue is the KapitiCommunity Centre and thetime is from 12.30pm to

4pm. For more informationor to register contact EmilyMeyer [email protected].

Diers has a passion forgetting people engagedwith their communitiesand in the decisions thataffect their lives. Sincemoving to Seattle in 1976,he put that passion to workfor a direct-actionneighbourhoodassociation, a communitydevelopment corporation,a community foundation,and the nation's largesthealth care co-operative.He was appointed the firstdirector of Seattle's

It will also provide a testfor the contents of the grabbags people should havestashed at theirworkplaces to enable themto get home if walking isthe only way.

“The walks won’t beeasy especially for thosewho are not reasonably fit.But it is certainly ‘doable’and the better preparedpeople are the more

comfortable they will be.”He said an interesting

facet of the entries is thatthree-quarters are women.

“The walk will go aheadeven if the weather is notideal.

“Real disasters don’tnecessarily pick nice days.

“Mainstay gear will becomfortable walking shoesand socks, a wind/shower-proof top and a hat, waterand energizing nibblessuch as muesli and fruitbars and bananas.

Locals encouraged to visit island

ISLAND LIFE: Manaaki, Amo and John Barrett invite you over to their place. PHOTO: KAP241014SPLISLAND

A survey of 50 Kapiti residents hasbeen conducted by Kapiti IslandNature Tours to find out howmany hadn’t visited the island.

While the results weren’tdramatically different to what thecompany knew anecdotally, theywere surprising.

Just over 30 per cent had nevervisited the island.

This, says Kapiti Island NatureTours co-owner John Barrett, wassomething the whanau-runbusiness wanted to do somethingabout.

“There’s no doubt that a visit toKapiti Island is a world-classexperience.

“But it’s the same all over thecountry that many people don’tvisit what’s in their own backyard.”

There are big benefits tostaying local.

“You are supporting localbusiness and local history.

“Plus it lessens your carbonfootprint.

“And it means you can trulyrecommend visiting the island toout of town visitors.”

The survey also revealed thatsome locals found it too difficult tobook.

“It used to be that to visitKapiti Island with us you had tobook your own ferry, DOC permitand local permit.

“Now, we do all that.”And what about the expense?

Some locals say it was tooexpensive to visit Kapiti Island.

“If you weigh that up with thekind of experience people aregoing to have, it’s not just aboutthe dollar value.

“It’s hard for us to say thatvisiting with us is amazing.

“So we prefer to let our visitors

do the talking.“They say it’s one of the best

experiences they’ve had in NewZealand.”

If you have a Gold Card, youcan now take a day tour to thenorth end for free, if you bring a

paying friend.“That’s pretty much the cost of

the ferry and DOC permit alone.“Plus you get a great lunch and

a tour.”They’re also offering a Natural

Romance package which includes

a kiwi spotting tour,accommodation in one of theirluxury tents, plus all meals,permits and ferry.

“We’re really looking forwardto seeing more locals visit us thisyear.

“We’re looking forward tosharing what spring on the islandhas to offer.”

High profile development opportunity


The perils of texting and driving . . .Paraparaumu Beach Schoolpupil Saskia Young writesabout texting and driving

Fact: texting and driving is agrowing problem in ourcommunity.

Last year 13,518 people werecaught texting and driving in NewZealand, the total cost of finespeople had to pay totalled awhopping $706,800.

Globally, every year there areabout 9000 deaths due to textingand driving.

When I went to the Kapiti policestation to find out more about thisissue, the constable I spoke withtold me “you could quite easilymore than double the above figure,the reason for this is that it is veryhard to prove a person has beentexting at the exact time of their

crash.” Texting has now even beenproven to be worse than drinkingand driving.

If someone is texting they arelooking at their device and notthe road, compared to a personwho is drunk, they wouldnormally still have their eyes onthe road.

Every hour at least 44 peopleare injured from texting and

driving worldwide, and every 2.6hours at least one person dies.

If you text and drive it’s notjust a danger to you but it’s adanger to other people.

I am 10 years old and I firstbecame aware of this issuethrough a television programme.Since then I have noticed manypeople using their phone in thecar, when I have been walking my

dog or my mum has been drivingme to school. On a few occasions Ihave actually seen people losesome control of their vehicle, anddriving on the wrong side of theroad.

How many posters have youseen advertising the dangers oftexting and driving?

Stop texting and driving, don’tlet it kill you or someone else!

Saturday good Expo choiceDid you go to the Age on theGo Expo on SaturdayOctober 11?

If you missed out thenyou missed a treat.

Feedback from both thestallholders and membersof the public has all beenpositive, and even thoughthere may have been fewervisitors overall, that very factworked in everyone’s favour —there was more time formeaningful interaction.Interestingly enough it seems asif most people travelled to theevent by car and this supportsour reasoning to have held it on aSaturday when commuters werenot crowding the available carparks adjacent to the venue.Another advantage gained byholding it on a Saturday was thatI think more family groupsattended this time.

So, all in all, a most successfulventure and thank you to all whoattended.

My role at the expo was topresent Age Friendly Kapiti at astall in the main foyer area. Thisgave me the opportunity to

engage with visitors as theyeither entered or left thebuilding.

The Kapiti Coast OlderPersons’ Council is planning thelaunch of Age Friendly Kapitiearly next year, hopefully inMarch. By planning to movetowards an Age Friendly Kapitiwe will be joining other districtsin New Zealand who havealready begun the process.Tauranga was the first city tobecome truly Age Friendly andat present several othermunicipalities are starting downthe track.

When we say Age Friendlymaybe we should actually say AllAges Friendly.

When you think about it whatis best for the elderly will alsowork for small children, those

with disabilities and eventhe fit able-bodied rugbyplayer with an injured leg!

Incidentally, if wecreated a Young childFriendly Kapiti then wouldit also be Elderly Friendly?Not according to Dr AlexKalache, who presented a

seminar in Wellington inSeptember.

You may remember hedeveloped the project whileworking with the WHO inGeneva.

Should anyone want to knowmore about the Checklist ofEssential Features of AgeFriendly Cities document towhich I am referring to they canlook up www.who.int/ageing/publications/Age_friendly_cities_checklist_pdf on theinternet.

Festivities needed

James WestburyWaikanae Community Board

A Spoonfulof Sugar

How do we inject somefestive spirit intoMahara Place?

Mahara Place lastyear, prior toChristmas and ourtraditional holidayseason, lacked anypublic festive cheer or plannedbig events.

Throughout the year,including Christmas, there wereno seasonal themed publicdecorations such as lights, flagsor artworks on display and verylittle by the way of communityentertainment or reasons tocelebrate the unique character ofour village.

I look with envy at other smalltowns and cities where theirlocal councils support andcontribute to ensuring theirvillages look attractive and areable to compete with otherholiday destinations.

Kapiti Coast District Councilneed to step up to the mark if weare to remain a destination andattract visitors to our villagesand our region.

As in business, one can neverbe complacent, our Councilneeds to look after our touristdestination reputation as we willbe left behind by the competition.When I questioned our Councilabout the possibility of puttingup a small display of lights, theanswer was there is no budget,but Paraparaumu is to havelights installed as part of the longterm plan.

Why was Waikanae neveroffered this opportunity?Influence the long term plan andtalk to your ward Councillor andCommunity Board members.

I do not believe we can waitfor the town centre project tocome to fruition if we are to buildWaikanae into a destination thatpeople want to live, work andplay in.

Rotary Club ‘overrun’ by pupils

GOOD FUN: Addressing theRotary Club of Paraparaumuwere, from left, Michaela Walker,Loren Withair, Antonia Kruse,William Horn and FinnianGalbraith.

PHOTO: KAP201014SPLROTARY

Each year the Rotary Club ofParaparaumu passes overrunning of the weekly clubmeeting to a group of KapitiCollege students.

“The members never cease tobe amazed by the maturity of thestudents, and the efficient waythe meeting runs, even thoughthe students have only attendedthe previous meeting, in order tounderstand the format,” clubmember Chris Dentice said.

The president for the day,Loren Withair, lookedresplendent in her chain of officeover her college blazer, and ranthe meeting with a firm hand.

The guest speakers were fromamong, the students, and alsoincluded a recently arrivedRotary Exchange Student fromGermany, Antonia Kruse, whohas been sponsored by the club,and is attending Kapiti College.

William Horn and FinnianGalbraith were the first of theguest speakers, and gave a veryentertaining address regarding ashadow election organised by theKapiti College Debating Club.

“A local MP and the PrimeMinister responded toinvitations to attend the college,and they were confronted withvital questions such as theirpreference between marmite andvegemite,” Mr Dentice said.

“They also devised variousfictional political parties such asthe Student Dictatorship Party,The Green Connection Party andThe Kapiti Civilian Party, withthe policies seeminglydominated by food concerns.

“They will be holding theirown election, with the winningparty presenting their views tothe school board.

“There was suspicion ofbribery with sweets andicecream to obtain votes, butthere seemed to be no computerhacking in evidence, as yet.”

Michaela Walker spoke of herdaily training discipline,starting at 5.30am before school,that has enabled her to becomeone of New Zealand’s top athletesin long distance and crosscountry running.

Finnian then took on the roleof sergeant, and concocted animaginative and extremelyhumorous range ofmisdemeanours, based looselyon the current political “DirtyTricks”, for which the variousmembers were fined, leading toquite a significant sum of“donations” which will be passedon to various charities in Kapiti.

President Loren then spoke ofher interest in the performingarts, including her involvementin a band called Hat Rack, whichhas gone professional, andperforms for variousorganisations.

The evening was extremelyenjoyable, and the members arelooking forward to KapitiCollege’s involvement in 2015.

Kapiti News editor DavidHaxton was one of many whoenjoyed a day long action-packed rail trip with SteamIncorporated this month

With an almighty hiss and aroar, a diesel locomotive eruptedinto life, flexed its metal musclesand gently rolled out fromPaekakariki Railway Station.

Hooked on behind were a fleetof classic red steel heritagecarriages with many eagerpassengers onboard.

It’s Steam Incorporated’s firsttrip of its latest Heartland Tourand today is a grand circle railcruise which will take us toWellington, through the HuttValley, Wairarapa, PalmerstonNorth and back to Paekakariki.

Accompanying me is mypartner Tina, mother Marian andfamily friend Barbara. Tina and Ibooked this trip as a birthdaypresent for mum.

We settled into our comfy seatsin our second class carriage. Theconfiguration, both seats facingeach other, meant there wasn’tmuch leg space but withnumerous stops it wouldn’t be toomuch of an issue.

The windows were a bit dirtyand I made a note of giving ouroutside window a wipe when wegot to Wellington station butnever did.

After a half hour stop atWellington, where we eachgrabbed takeaway coffee, thetrain nudged its way through theHutt Valley while we tucked intohomemade bacon, egg, avocado,tomato and lettuce croissantswhich are washed down with amini bottle of bubbly each.

The train goes close to people’shomes and it’s interesting to peerinto backyards for a second ortwo; the state of some places are abit of an eyesore.

Soon after exiting the 8.8kmlong Rimutaka tunnel, the trainstopped and we alighted andpassengers walked a shortdistance for a photo opportunityof the train chugging past - it wasa train enthusiast’s heaven ascameras snapped away.

Going through the lush rollingWairarapa countryside wasenjoyable especially whilestanding on the open viewingcarriage and waving out topeople.

A pitstop at Carterton to checkout the station museum alsoenabled me to use the stationtoilet which someone said wasthe oldest toilet on the network.

After the train was issued witha track warrant at Masterton,which took quite a few minutes,we continued a short distance toOpaki, for our lunch stop at thePaper Road Vineyard.

A sumptuous roast dinner andsome glasses of wine wereenjoyed in sunny conditionswhile musician Wayne Masonsung and played guitar. Waynegot an extra round of applausewhen he sang his well knownsong Nature, which a few yearsago was the number one rankedsong in a list of the top 100 NewZealand songs.

Another photo shootopportunity saw us stand in apaddock as the train backed downa hill before the driver opened upthe KiwiRail Dc loco and whiteclouds erupted into the air.

Had the society’s restoredheritage diesel Da1431 been inaction it might have been beenmore spectacular. The plan wasto use the restored loco to haulthe excursion but it fell through

because, according to the society,there were safety concerns fromthe Transport Agency andWorksafe about the operation ofthe loco in tunnels.

With the spectacularManawatu Gorge looming, theopen viewing carriage waschocka by the time mum and I gotto it. She inquired if people were“taking turns” to watch theviews. It was drizzling so Ireturned to my seat and wascomforted with a slice ofraspberry cheesecake. Mumstayed on and returned wet butexhilarated.

Special credit to the SteamIncorporated members on thistrip who volunteered their timefor free. Their tasks varied fromanswering questions, selling foodand souvenirs, emptying rubbishbins, cleaning toilets, helpingpeople on and off the carriages,liaising with the driver, pointingout areas of interest, and lotsmore. They were passionate andhelpful.

The trip, which started at7.15am on Saturday October 25,finished at the scheduled 5.30pm.

Overall definitely a great dayout and an enjoyable experience.

Every week we are inundated with calls for help. To be honest the volume of animals on the brink of being euthanaised is devastating. At HUHA we are all about problem solving and educating. As a community we have the ability to change the culture of how animals are kept and cared for in our society.And in many of these desperate cases changing the formula of care and instilling a little common-sense is all it takes. Often if you look at a “bad” “naughty” or “out of control” animal there is merely an inexperienced, misinformed or overwhelmed owner involved. The animal isn’t bad, it may be living inthe wrong environment or its caregiver may have failed to give it sound direction. It is HUHA’s mission to stop the suffering. The suffering of owners who are out of their depth and miserable, and the suffering of animals who are living on the edge due to an inappropriate situation stemming from ignoranceand or misinformation. So the good news is that HUHA’s track record to date is proof that to every problem there is a workable solution. Now all we need is to work some of that HUHA know how and magic into every home in every community in NZ…..and that’s just what we plan to do!

Crematorium – Locals have it all!

Each Funeral Home has their own crematorium

By Andrew Malcolm

Over the last 20 years many of the localcouncil-operated crematoria have eitherbeen privatised or local Funeral Homeshave simply put in their own crematoriumto better suit the public. On the KapitiCoast and in Horowhenua there havenever been cremation facilities providedby the local councils, and Funeral Homeshave had to travel some distances forcremation, thus adding costs and time tothe families of the district. Over the lastfew years this has changed dramaticallyin these two districts with the four majorfuneral homes now each having their owncrematorium.

The newest of these facilities is KapitiCrematorium, run by Kapiti Coast FuneralHome, in Valley Road Paraparaumu. Thisfacility was opened in August 2012 aftermany years of work to establish a facilityfor the local community within the AwaTapu Cemetery grounds. A wonderfulfinal result has been achieved withthe crematorium including a 40 seatcommittal chapel, for attendance after afuneral service at another venue, or for asmall private gathering. The view from thechapel on the crest of the hill is beautiful,as it looks down the valley to the oceanand the north end of Kapiti Island.

Of those advertised here in the localFuneral Directory, each Funeral Homehas their own crematorium. Havingtheir own facility means not only lessdistance for families to travel to a finalcommittal venue, but also reduces thetravel costs for the family and Hearse

hire costs, and means arrival timescan be more flexible, all benefitting thefamilies the funeral homes serve.

For more information on our localcrematoria visit the web sites of theFuneral Homes listed here.

To reviewall of the withdrawals in context, please consult the electronic or hard copy of the Proposed DistrictPlan, as detailed below.

Reasons for withdrawal:Coastal hazards – An independent Coastal Erosion Hazard Assessment by James Carley, PaulKomar, Paul Kench and Robert Davies recommended the provisions be withdrawn and that the Councilundertake further work to better quantify the coastal hazard risks posed to the Kapiti coastline throughimproved scientific evidence.

Hazardous substances and facilities – An independent planning review by Sylvia Allanand Richard Fowler recommended withdrawal because provisions conflict with requirements in theHazardous Substances and New Organisms Act, and the provisions can be more effectively drafted.

Priority areas for restoration - The approach in the proposed provisions is based onincomplete information and will not achieve the intended outcome of encouraging restoration ofnative vegetation.

Strikethrough versions of the chapters identifying the withdrawn provisions and amended maps may beviewed free of charge at www.kapiticoast.govt.nz/proposed-district-plan or during office hours at:

Coastguard callends positivelyClOEWILLETTS

‘Police were pleased themalewas well prepared by having acell phone with him and beingsuitably dressed, including

wearing a lifejacket, especiallywith New Zealand’s recent Safer

BoatingWeek.’MATT FITZGERALD

Kapiti Coastguard were part of a rescuecallout in Pukerua Bay around midday lastWednesday, after a 53-year-old malecapsized from his vessel while fishing.

The Pukerua Bay local, who was in thewater for around 20 to 30 minutes beforebeing rescued, managed to cling to hisoverturned kayak and call emergencyservices using his cell phone, which waswrapped in plastic.

Due to the water current, Detective MattFitzgerald from Porirua police said the malewas pulled significantly in a southerlydirection while waiting to be rescued,though “police had good observations of himfrom a high point, and were able to provideregular updates to his location”.

Maritime New Zealand enlisted the helpof a civilian boat to go to the man, who foundhim located alongside his yellow four metrekayak, paddle and fishing container, whichwere all recovered.

Kapiti Coastguard turned up shortlyafter, and transferred him to their vessel,before taking him to Mana Boating Club tobe assessed by ambulance.

A Westpac Rescue Helicopter was also onhand as precaution, with staff completing anexamination of the area for any otherkayakers.

“Police were pleased the male was well

prepared by having a cell phone with himand being suitably dressed, includingwearing a lifejacket, especially with NewZealand’s recent Safer Boating Week,” MrFitzgerald said.

Rob Faulke, from Kapiti Coastguard, saidwhen he got there the man had mildhypothermia, and had “probably alsoswallowed quite a lot of water”.

“He was really tired and quiet while wetransferred him to our boat and covered himin blankets, and then took him down toMana where the ambulance and police werewaiting.”

Mr Faulke was pleased with the result ofthe callout, though said it was unfortunate ittook up to 30 minutes to reach the location,due to problems getting crew togetherduring the week.

World’s secrets are now exposedIT’S TIME: Google issending its StreetView cameras to theends of the Earth,and has recruited acamel to documentthe desert. But somephotographers havethe hump, saysRhodri Marsden

TOURIST VIEW: Joe and Josephine Traveller are willingly furnishingGoogle Maps with photos — free.

‘Part of the joy of travel,surely, is not knowingexactly what awaits

you.’

A FRIEND of mine suffers fromtravel anxiety. Her thoughts abouthow she’ll proceed from A to B arefraught with all manner of WhatIfs, mainly prompted by notknowing what various stages of thejourney will look like. Google Mapshas proved to be a boon for her inthis regard; its Street View facility,once restricted to urbanthoroughfares, has since expandedto cover all kinds of placesincluding, crucially, the interiorsof major transit hubs such asairports and rail termini.

Using Google Maps, my friendcan visually preview the entirety ofsome of her trips, eliminatingsurprise and reducing her heartrate in one fell swoop. If shehappens to be planning a trip to

Liwa Desert on the Arabianpeninsula any time soon, Googlehas that covered, too, thanks to acamel called Raffia.

The Trekker camera you maysee mounted on a Google vehicle tocapture panoramic views can justas easily be mounted on a cameland, as a result of Raffia beingtaken for a rather long walk, areasaround Liwa have been capturedand integrated into Google Maps.

The involvement of a camel isevidently a cute publicity stunt,but it does highlight Google’sgrowing interest in facilitatingarmchair tourism.

For two years now, successfulapplicants have been loaned theTrekker camera to document hard-to-reach destinations. Theseinclude the Galapagos Islands, thecanals of Venice and the GreatBarrier Reef.

These places all figure prettyhighly on people’s lists of must-sees, but the unexplored holdssimilar allure. It would be nice tothink of Raffia as a trailblazer, withanimals providing us withpanoramic views we’d normallynever get to see.

But the Trekker is a hefty thingthat stands 1m tall.

Certainly not something you’drelish strapping to the back of abrown bear.

Google has for many yearsenlisted help from the public todocument the great views of theworld using a bolt-on service toGoogle Maps called Panoramio.

Mainly used by serious amateurphotographers, it’s about to bediscontinued and subsumed into abroader Google Maps add-on calledGoogle Views.

The Panoramiacs aren’tentirely happy about this; they fearan imminent influx of amateurswielding their smartphones, but asfar as Google is concerned, themore data the better.

An app called Photosphere isnow available for Android and iOS,mimicking the Trekker camera toprovide Google with geotaggedpanoramic views of Machu Picchu,or maybe Birmingham’s Bullring.

If it’s geotagged and shared onGoogle+, your photograph will beadded to Views and, if approved byGoogle, will also be visible onGoogle Maps.

Many people would questionwhy we’re delighted to do Google’sheavy lifting free of charge, butperhaps it’s vanity; the prospect ofour photo becoming the pre-eminent online representation of areal-world landmark holdssignificant appeal.

This photographic splurge,whether it’s panoramic, portrait,landscape or otherwise, evidently

points to a time when most of theplanet will not only be documented,but also organised and attached toa navigable map, creating a virtualworld very closely resembling ourown, which we can explore atleisure.

This is an astonishingconsequence of technologicalinnovation that my travel-anxiousfriend would relish, but not all of uswelcome that elimination of

surprise. Part of the joy oftravelling is not knowing exactlywhat awaits you; I quite like that Ididn’t know what Marseille’s OldPort or Tokyo’s Shibuya Crossinglooked like before I had the chanceto wander around them.

Anyway, if you don’t wantspoilers for your visit to the LiwaDesert, steer clear of Google Maps,but suffice to say, it’s very sandy.

Pair keen to keep bowling them overDAVIDHAXTON

AWESOME: Ivena Heald and Roger Tucker did well in a tenpin bowling challenge in Australia.PHOTO: DAVID HAXTON / KAP221014DHTENPIN

Roger Tucker, from Waikanae,was part of the New Zealand men’steam which won the men as well ascombined team title at the 53rdAustralian adult tenpin bowlingchampionship.

Each Australian states sends afour-strong men’s and women’steam to the challenge and NewZealand is allowed to enter “tomake up the numbers,’ Tuckerjokily says.

The championship was held atTenpin City Bowl, Lidcombe,Sydney, from October 10-17.

Nine four-strong men’s andwomen’s teams played a mix of 18singles, doubles and combinedgames.

“It’s the first time we have wonthe men’s title but the second timefor the combined title,” Tuckersaid.

He also set a tournament recordof 298 [the maximum you can get is300].

“With the last ball I got eightdown not 10.”

And he won the doubles withWellington bowler Greg Nicolas.

The four-strong New Zealandwomen’s team, which includedKapiti Tenpin manager IvenaHeald, achieved bronze in the

women’s competition as well aswinning the combined title withthe men. Heald also won silver inthe doubles with Auckland bowlerCushla Burns.

Heald, from Lower Hutt, washappy with her achievement“considering I didn’t train thatmuch and I had a cataract done inmy left eye”.

Tucker and Heald were bothselected in the tournament’s all-star team as well. Both are nowtargeting the Asian zonechampionships in Manila inNovember.

Tucker, who took up ten pinbowling while in Singapore withthe army in the 1970s, said heenjoyed the sport for a number ofreasons.

“It’s a sport where you playyourself. There’s a great socialaspect. You can play it anyday andalso the ball comes back to you —not like golf.”

It was also a great sport forchildren too, he said.

“Dayna Haylock is the under 17and under 21 national championand Kieran Davis is the nationalunder 17 champion.”

Tucker is ranked about thethird best in the New Zealandmen’s division and Heald is thereigning woman’s champion.
