What a hive of activity greeted one on arrival at Saturday’s Kaiwaka School Gala! Naomi Walker said "WOW what a positively exhausting day - Kaiwaka Board of Trustees and staff would like to extend a massive thank you to all

those who participated in our successful (despite the lunch time rain!) gala, we raised a significant amount of money for our school and had outstanding school community engagement. Thank you to all the local businesses who supported our gala." Photos below: Hamish Ferguson participating in a variety of activities,

from having his nails painted to efficiently working a digger to put the ball in the hoop; Mike Law from the Kaiwaka Fire Brigade being put through his paces in a kitchen fire demonstration; looking for a bargain at the White Elephant stall, which was well patronised - these children were searching through the toys.

Our February weather was not up to scratch - it was rather windy with a lot of cloudy or partly cloudy days and as usual little rain. Not good for the farmers and water tanks, great for harvesting. During February our temperatures were mid to high 20s and would have been hotter without the wind. There were a few nippy days when one thought Autumn was arriving early but that sorted itself out. Our rainfall this year for February was 67mm and February 2014 was 66mm.

Our driest February was 1990 with 3mm and the wettest was 2004 with 260mm. The first two months this year we have had 103mm and in 2014 we had 110mm. Do you have a sore finger or thumb and need to keep a plaster dry? Try cutting a finger off a disposable glove and put over your finger and maybe a piece of tape around the bottom to seal it; it is a saving on plasters and it works.

Photo: Neil Algar, President; Robin Astridge, liaison officer; Noeline Lofthouse, committee; Wynne HaySmith, website liaison - members of the New Zealand History Federation Inc when they visited the Kaiwaka Historical Group in the Kaiwaka Library last week. NZFH: At the inaugural meeting in March 1971 the New Zealand Federation of Historical Societies (hereafter referred to as the Federation) was formed, with 44 historical societies listed as members later that year. In December 1973 the Federation was incorporated at Hamilton. Members are made up of historical societies, museums and trusts, schools and students, relevant interest groups - and of course people with an interest in New Zealand's history. The aim of the Federation is to encourage and assist historical societies, communicate by newsletters, hold an annual conference, publish the Federation journal, NZ Legacy magazine, hold regional meetings, field trips and social events (such as dinners), advise of workshops and training. The Kaiwaka Historical Society has ‘paper’ records stored in the Kaiwaka Library. With museums at Matakohe, Mangawhai and Wellsford, the KHS does not try to replicate what they do, and records local history for reference purposes. Contact the Kaiwaka Historical Society by emailing kaiwaka.history@gmail.com. Copies of the green photographic book Kaiwaka: A Photographic History and Roger Smith’s Stories Tall, Stories Short are available via Trade Me or by email or phone Lindsey 4312 045.

HAPPY EASTER GOOD FRIDAY- THE CRUCIFIXION I want no other argument. I need no other plea, It is enough that Jesus died, And that He died for me. (Last words of British Evangelist, Tom Rees)

EASTER SATURDAY - THE BURIAL O death, where is your sting? O grave, where is your victory? But thanks be to God, who giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Corinthians 15:55+57

EASTER DAY - THE RESURRECTION A woman diagnosed with a terminal illness called on her pastor to plan her funeral. On one matter she was insistent; "I want to be buried with a fork in my hand", she demanded. Her perplexed pastor asked why. "Well", she replied, "in all my years of attending church socials and pot luck dinners I always remember that as they cleared away the first lot of dishes someone always said, “Keep your fork!" It's my favourite part because I knew something even better is coming. So I want people to see me there in that coffin with the fork in my hand and know: 'Her best is yet to come!" (Lorne Peachey) Jesus said, "Because I live you also will live" John 14:19

Kaiwaka’s newest Justice of the Peace for New Zealand - Wendy Howard was sworn in at the Whangarei District Court on 19 March 2015. She is seen here with Sue Farrant, Registrar for the Northland Justices of the Peace Assn, and Justice McDonald. Wendy is regularly at the Kaiwaka Library or the front off ice at the Kaiwaka War Memorial Hall, and will put a sign in the window when she is available at either location.

Book Swap The next book swap is coming up soon - please have all your large print and audio books back to the library by Sunday 12 April so they can be included in the swap. Wheelchair Ramp You may have noticed one or two changes to the front entrance of the library recently. A wheelchair ramp is being installed to the side of the steps, and a handrail will be put at the other end. Book Review Recently I’ve read An Astronaut's Guide to Life on Earth, by Chris Hadfield Colonel Chris Hadfield is a Canadian astronaut. He first came to my attention via Facebook, with a video he made on the International Space Station answering the question "is it challenging to brush your teeth in space, without getting toothpaste up your nose?" He made many videos about life in space while on the ISS. Later he became more famous for his rendition of David Bowie's song 'Space Oddity'. He was working hard to bring life in

space to the world - especially in Canada. The book takes a look at his three journeys to space, including on the Space Shuttle and a Soyuz rocket to the ISS, and his life before and in between. It's a fascinating look at a driven, determined man, how he got to where he is today, and how he achieves his goals. It's an easy read, and I recommend it. This book is on the Rental Non Fiction shelves in the library until July, when it will shift to the free Non Fiction shelf.

BOOK REVIEW Big Girl Panties, by Stephanie Evanovich "A rollicking, sensuous, feel-good romantic comedy about a grieving young widow who decides to get in shape . . . and winds up getting her groove back--and a whole lot more! "Holly didn't expect to be a widow at thirty-two. She also didn't expect to be so big. After her husband's death, food was the one thing she could always count on. Now, those extra pounds make flying coach feel like medieval torture--especially when she's squished next to Logan Montgomery. A personal trainer to famous pro athletes, her seatmate is so hot that he makes Holly sweat in all the right (and so embarrassingly wrong!) places. "Though Holly doesn't make the grade on

Logan's first-impression meter, he finds himself intrigued by her sharp wit and keen insights--a welcome change from the high-maintenance models he dates--so he impulsively offers to get her back in shape. A little skeptical but ready to make at least one positive change in her life, Holly agrees..." (overdrive.com) If you want a classification, I'd label this a chick-lit novel - light and fun, and I enjoyed it a lot. I read this via the online Overdrive service, on my tablet, and there's a copy at Dargaville that can be requested by filling in an orange request form, there's no charge. Review by Wendy

MOTORISTS ASKED TO TAKE EXTRA

CARE ON BRYNDERWYN

HILL The NZ Transport Agency is asking motorists to take extra care when travelling on the Brynderwyn Hill (SH1) during the next five weeks as work continues to cart earth to a fill site as part of the safety upgrade project. From this Monday,[30 March] up to 10 trucks an hour will begin moving earth from the quarry at the top of the hill down the highway to one of the project fill sites on the opposite side of the State Highway, says the NZ Transport Agency’s Auckland and Northland Highway Manager Brett Gliddon. “The trucks will cross the State Highway at a controlled point managed by staff to ensure the safety of all road users. Traffic on the State Highway will continue to have priority.” The trucks will run during the operational hours of 7am to 7pm, seven days a week. However, there will be no truck movements over the Easter or Anzac holiday weekends. “These truck movements are in addition to the current work already underway at the site.” The NZ Transport Agency and its contractor United Civil Construction thank motorists in advance for their patience and co-operation while this work is completed and ask that everyone continues to follow the directions from construction staff. The work on the Brynderwyns will see the highway widened, a number of tight corners removed and a wire rope barrier installed to improve safety and resilience along this important stretch of highway.

~NZ Transport Agency press release

“GEORGE ALFRED THORNTON The youngest son of the Kaiwaka Thornton family. Like his brothers, Jim, Dick and Ken, he headed off as a teenager for work in the bush. As far as I can fathom, his last job was with the Dreadon contract in the far north. George followed bullock teams and wagons in bring-ing out kauri logs, hard, rough work. From all accounts, he was a tall, strong, good- looking guy, very popular, the life of the party. When war was declared in 1914 he joined the army, trained for a short time at Trentham and sailed for Egypt. But George did not return. He died as a result of his platoon moving for-ward into action in France. The big guns of the British artillery in the rear were firing a barrage of shells over the heads of these ad-vancing troops. One shell fell short. George was very badly wounded and tried in vain to crawl back to the medics. His luck failed him. He bled to death there in the field of Belgium, France a long way from Kaiwaka.” ~ from: ‘OF TIMES GONE BY’ –Memories of Jack Thornton 2004 George, born 9 January 1888, was the son of George and Margaret, nee Morri-son (born in Nova Scotia) and had 12 brothers and sisters. Their farm was on the Kaiwaka-Mangawhai Road. His brothers Jim and Ken served in France, and his sisters Clara Lucas and Ina Saunders nursed in England. George Alfred was a Private, Wellington Regiment, N.Z.E.F. he embarked from Wellington on 2 April 1917 on the Corinthic for England, and arrived in France in July 1917. He died of wounds at Etaples, France, 6 Dec 1917, aged 29, and is buried at Belgium-Lijssenthoek Military Cemetery Photo below: George Dreadon’s bush camp 1912 - George is far right.. Ref.
