Police have issued an appeal to the public as they search for a knife be-lieved to have been used to stab a Wai-uku teenager in the head in the early hours of Saturday morning.

Waiuku teenager Reece Rodger is recovering after the attack, which oc-curred at a Victoria Avenue property following a party on Friday evening. Social media sites were flooded with comments on the incident on Saturday, with hundreds of messages of support for Reece, as well as a number of mes-sages, some threatening, on the face-book site of another local teen, who had been named on the sites as the attacker.

Teen stabbed afterparty in Waiuku

Witnesses, knife, sought by policePolice had already been called to

the address after reports of disorder, and made a number of arrests, but had left the property when the attack happened. Emergency services were called to a Victoria Street property near to where the party was hosted about 3am on Saturday.

Initial reports were that there had been a party and a fight in the street and the teenager had a head wound and was taken to Middlemore Hospi-tal in a critical condition.

The teenager was transferred to Auckland City Hospital where he was in a serious condition, a spokeswoman for Auckland Dis-trict Health Board said on the weekend, but reports yesterday said he was expected to be back home within a few days.

One partygoer said the party itself had largely broken up when the incident occurred, and there were around 15 people left in the area when Reece Rodger was stabbed. It is believed the alleged attacker, who she said left the scene in a vehicle with a family member, had been at the party earlier in the evening.

Police said yesterday that the knife is still outstanding and are interested in hearing from anyone who may know where it is. It is thought to be in the area of Mellsop Avenue.

Police have arrested a 17 year old man and charged him with Wound-ing with Intent to Cause Grievous Bodily Harm. He appeared in court yesterday morning. Anyone with any information on the incident or the knife is asked to contact Detective Sergeant Rob Cleary on 09 261 1321 at Papakura CIB.

Hundreds of messages of support flowed in for Reece, with this picture posted on social media by friends as he recovered.

Genesis 1:26, Genesis 2:7, Living Soul=Living Creature from Genesis 1:24, Genesis 18:27, Ecclesiastes 12:7, Revelation 16:3, Genesis 7:21-23, Job 27:3-6, 1 John 5:12, John 3:35-36, 1 Corinthians 15:51-58,

These days of preparation were days of deep heart searching. The disciples felt their spiritual need and cried to the Lord for the holy unction that was to fit them for the work of soul saving. They did not ask for a blessing for themselves merely. They were weighted

with the burden of the salvation of souls. They realized that the gospel was to be carried to the world, and they claimed the power that Christ had promised. {AA 37}

From this we find that dust/mud plus Jesus Breath made a living soul, a living creature or a living person. You are a soul, you do not have a soul. As a believer we should be following the Gospel Commission and saving souls/people with salvation found only in Jesus Christ our Lord, are we actually?

Len Browns Zero Waste is a jokeMonthly we receive Lens propaganda

pamphlet Our Auckland through the let-terbox promoting the benefits of recycling.

Under pressure from my greenie mates, I set up a system where we could sort our bot-tles to the colours and deliver them to our Waiuku Transfer Station, the weight of this contribution is approximately two tonnes every couple of months. On arriving with our nicely sorted bottles and bins I was told that we would have to pay $5.00 per drum, by our waste supervising employee, the ex-cuse given was that I was a commercial en-terprise and had to pay.

On contacting Auckland City Council and making them fully aware of the situation, I was told that there should be NO charge.

I then rang our local transfer station to verify the charge factor, thinking there may have been a little dumpside employee cor-ruption afoot, only to have it confirmed by head office; were a private enterprise and we can charge as we like was the reply.

Dear Len, you are doing very little to en-courage the major collectors of bottles to be responsible with their disposal, your Our Auckland booklet is another one of your feel good attempts that doesnt address the problem by encompassing and encouraging all to be responsible for their waste.

I dispatched two tonnes of bottles to land-fill via the system I already pay for.

John CrightonWaiuku

It was Charles Dickens who, a century and a half ago, opened his novel A Tale of Two Cities with the lines It was the best of times, it was the worst of times...

It was that phrase that ran through my head on Saturday as I mixed sorting through photos of calf club and interviewed a young woman who had been at a party where a local boy was stabbed in the head.

Calf Club epitomises everything that is great about our region. Families and friends gather in what is one of the most beautiful parts of our country, while youngsters battle with the animals they have reared, locals take turns at manning stalls, buying raffles, cooking sausages and add-ing another chapter to our rural communities. At Otaua School, eating a beef burger and chatting with friends, I had commented how lucky we are.

An hour later, I was wondering what has hap-pened to our community when I followed up not only the incident in Victoria Avenue, but also the messages being posted across social media.

There were many messages of support for the victim, but there were also hate-filled angry posts about his alleged attacker and on-line arguments between others posting on various sites. There was an undercurrent of violence in many of the posts, messages couched in the coarsest and most abusive language.

The difference between the morning and the af-ternoon of my day was like stepping from a Con-stable landscape painting to a horror film.

Yet just five or six years ago, many of these abu-sive teens were the ones I had been photograph-ing innocently enjoying their own calf clubs.

How did they get from that, to this?And more importantly, how do we stop it?

WELCOME & THANK YOU

Last weekend, like many local couples, Waiuku couple Diane and Wayne Knight set off for a walk. The difference with their walk however, is that they dont expect it to end for six months, and at the end of it they will have walked the length of New Zealand on Te Araroa - New Zealands national trail.

The 3000km route stretch-ing from Cape Reinga in the North of New Zealand to Bluff in the South was offi-cially opened December 3rd, 2011 by the Governor-Gen-eral of New Zealand, Sir Jerry Mateparae.

Virtually all of the trail is off-road, crossing farm-land, mountains, rivers and some of New Zealands most rugged terrain. Diane and Wayne are no strangers to adventure though, having done many parts of the trail on other walking expedi-tions, and it was on one of those treks that they met up with a tourist who was do-ing the whole trail. That idea germinated for a year before they began planning seri-ously for the trail walk.

They laugh that among their preparations was the need to carb up, eating plenty to counter the ex-pected weight loss during the walk. One of the more expensive parts of getting ready for the adventure was organising specialised trek-king equipment, with very lightweight gear.

The couple have to carry everything with them, so the tent weighs less than 1.5kg, and even items like food have been chosen carefully to ensure they carry as little extra weight as possible. One part of the trek means they

Waiuku couple off for a walk -for six months and 3000km!

will be on their own for up to 10 days, and possibly longer if there is bad weather. As Wayne says, carrying your accomodation and enough food for 10 days can be quite a weight.

They expect to be in Wel-lington for Christmas, and have organised with friends to join them at different sec-tions of the trail to walk with them for a day or several days. They hope to be back by around March, Wayne saying he thinks they might make around 30km a day, while Diane thinks it will be closer to 25km.

Six months tramping might put some pressure on relationships, but Wayne says he reckons it will take a couple of days before she

accepts hes the boss then everything will be ok. Diane laughs that he tried that on their last trip, and it lasted less than a day before it was decided who the boss was.

It wasnt me, Wayne grins.

The couple say the ad-venture is a whole change of life for them but that any-one can do it if they set their mind to it.

They have sold their house - it was the only way to stop the kids from visiting - and are now on the trip of a lifetime. They have a blog on the Te Araroa website so people can offer messages of encouragement and check in on their progress, and Di-ane says people can also visit her facebook page.

Maukus Shannon Cockerton was among a group of 18 young people who graduated from the Ronald McDonald House Auck-land (RMHA) Youth Board. The board consisted of Year 12 and 13 students from a number of Auck-land secondary schools.

The Board had been working to-gether since early March this year and have participated in organis-ing and volunteering at a number of events for RMHA.

Their hard work has been a huge benefit not only to the team at RMHA but also the community that they support. The young peo-ple have developed new skills over the past year, including excellent leadership skills.

Recently, as part of their gradu-ation, the Youth Board cooked a meal for all the families staying at RMHA. This was followed by a performance from Titanium and a

graduation ceremony. Having the Youth Board has

also been a great help to the team at RMHA. Wayne Howett CE of RMHA says: It was great hav-ing the Youth Board as part of the RMHA team. They inject a youth-fulness and eagerness into the ac-tivities and often bring a different perspective.

They have also been an amaz-ing help volunteering their time and energy to so many events that would not have been the same with out them. We cannot wait to see what they do next.

Youth Board applications for 2015 will open soon and more information is available at www.rmhauckland.co.nz

Representing Franklin at Aucklands celebrations of the United Nations International Day of Older Persons were Heather Douglas of Pukekohe and Julia Smith of Waiuku (pictured right).

The pair attended a commemo-ration in the Auckland Town Hall, hosted by Deputy Mayor Penny Hulse and with guest speaker Sir Bob Harvey earlier this month.

In 2002, the Second World Assem-bly of the United Nations adopted an international plan to respond to the opportunities and challenges of population ageing in the 21st cen-

tury and to promote the develop-ment of a society for all ages.

The theme of the 2014 com-memoration was Leaving No One Behind: Promoting a Society for All.

The United Nations says popula-tion dynamics will shape the key developmental challenges that the world will be confronting in the 21st century.

If our ambition is to Build the Future We Want, we must address the population over 60 which is ex-pected to reach 1.4 billion by 2030, a spokesperson said.

Over 200 people gathered on Saturday night at the Ma-takawau Hall to honour the men and women who proudly served, and continue to serve, in the Awhitu Rural Fire force over the last 25 years. Dignitaries and guests from all over Auckland gathered to honour the dedication, determina-tion, sacrifice, courage and above all the service to the com-munity that the team at Awhitu Rural Fire Force has deliv-

ered every single day for the past 25 years. What made the night even more special was that not only

were four Gold Stars presented (with a combined service of 107 years), but possibly for the first time ever twins would be honoured on the same night for the same amount of ser-vice, having started at the same time. Presentations were made to DFC Grant Andrews, 25 years, twins SSO David and

SFF Keith Millar, 25 years each and FC Howard Logan, 32 years. One message was loud and clear, that the service and dedication that each and every firefighter delivered would not have been possible without the support of their fam-ily and wives. The proud wives were also honoured for their enduring support and service and for all the times their husbands missed so many family engagements.

GRANT ANDREWS DAVID MILLAR KEITH MILLAR HOWARD LOGAN

David was at the original muster 25 years ago. He has attended 885 musters, an average of 92%. David was a dairy farmer up until two years ago and is now a dry stock farmer. He was described as well known for step-ping up to the plate for his mates and is someone you can always count on.

Original member, Keith has attended 981 musters, an average of over 95% attendance over the 25 years. Keith lives close by and is fre-quently on the delivery end of service in particu-lar the medical calls, and is a commercial painter when hes not attending fire calls.

Senior Fire-fighter25 YEARS

Senior Station Officer25 YEARS

Grant has served all of his 25 years at Awhitu. He has attended 914 musters at an average of 94%. Grant, a dairy farmer who runs a local agricultural contracting busi-ness is a very busy individual yet over the last 25 years each and every time the call came he was always willing to drop everything to help those in need.

Deputy Fire Chief25 YEARS

Howard was part of the initial group who set up Awhitus fire force. How-ard is known for putting his troops first and even held off this presentation to allow his peers to qualify as well. Working for IMG, Howard says employers of volunteer firefighters also make an outstanding contribution.

Secrets to succeed in the Christian walkJesus gave us three quick short parables to help us to understand the concept of spiritual things in a sinful world, something that is almost beyond our understanding, but yet these parables give us the glimpse or a concept of spiritual things and the Christian walk.Luke 5:36 And he spake also a parable unto them; No man putteth a piece of a new garment upon an old; if otherwise, then both the new maketh a rent, and the piece that was [taken] out of the new agreeth not with the old. Old Cloth-New ClothLuke 5:37-38 And no man putteth new wine into old bottles; else the new wine will burst the bottles, and be spilled, and the bottles shall perish. But new wine must be put into new bottles; and both are preserved. New wine in new bottles-old wine old bottles.

Luke 5:39 No man also having drunk old [wine] straightway desireth new: for he saith, The old is better. Old wine is alcoholic. The key and linchpin word in this text is straightway or immediately. Fresh grape juice is not immediately desired, we need a process of change, it takes time, a walk, a growth, a progression, a development, a New Heart and new inclinations.Remember wine in scripture also has a spiritual meaning of Doctrines or Beliefs Fresh Grape juice is represented as God Doctrines fresh from the Bible, and fermented grape juice or wine or booze is manmade and old corrupted doctrines. Believers sometimes find it hard to take on new doctrines as they conflict with the old man of sin, which dwells within. Remember in Jewish/Hebrew thinking, Yeast and Sin is in essence the same thing.Watch the phrase: Rom 1:16-17 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by Faith.

Faith to Faith: 2 Cor 3:18 But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, [even] as by the Spirit of the Lord. Glory to Glory: 2 Cor 4:16 For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward [man] is renewed day by day. Day by Day: Paul clearly tells us that the Christian walk is Faith to Faith Glory to Glory and Day by Day. It is a progression, a sort of staircase of upward growth. Remember what is said in Romans 10:17 So then faith [cometh] by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Our Faith grows with a daily consumption of scripture, well chewed over and assimilated into the life.

We find this admonition in 2 Peter 1:4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious

promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness; And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity. For if these things be in you, and abound, they make [you that ye shall] neither [be] barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins. Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall: For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

Feelings Alone Are Not an Indication of Sanctification. Happy feelings or the absence of joy is no evidence that a person is or is not sanctified. There is no such thing as instantaneous sanctification. True sanctification is a daily work, continuing as long as life shall last. Those who are battling with daily temptations, overcoming their own sinful tendencies, and thus seeking for holiness of heart and life, make no boastful claims of holiness. They are hungering and thirsting for righteousness. Sin appears to them exceedingly sinful. {CCh 56}Let us be growing Christians. We are not to stand still. We are to be in advance today of what we were yesterday; every day learning to be more trustful, more fully relying upon Jesus. Thus we are to grow up. You do not at one bound reach perfection; sanctification is the work of a lifetime. . . . {3SM 193} Why do we not dwell more upon this? Why do we not strive to make it easily understood, when it means so much? Why do not Christians open their eyes to see the work God requires them to do. Sanctification is the progressive work of a lifetime. The Lord declares, This is the will of God, even your sanctification (1 Thessalonians 4:3). Is it your will that your desires and inclinations shall be brought into conformity to the divine will? {3SM 202} Prov 24:16 For a just [man] falleth seven times, and riseth up again: but the wicked shall fall into mischief.

So Dear reader, let us each one continue to rise up once more, get back on our feet, dust off and quote Philippians 3:14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. As an active Believer, please be a Good Samaritan, keep an eye out for fellow travellers on the road of life, give them a lift, and encouraging word, a shoulder to cry on to share their load by a burden lifted.

Mauku artist Claudia Slaney has won a First Place at the Fellowship of Artists Work-ing Members Exhibition.

Claudias watercolour (inset), was selected for first place across the entire exhibition, with all mediums considered. The judge was Greg Moyle, well known Art Collector and previous Chair-person of the then Auckland Council Arts, Culture and Recrea-tion Committee.

Claudia entered her first show in March 2012 (The Auckland Easter Show), and had her first solo show six months later, where over half of the works sold. She has placed third in Watercolours at the Easter Show for the last two years and this year has been in-cluded in a large number of significant ex-hibitions. Claudia has also been invited to participate in a number of inaugural shows, including the Ponsonby Cruising Club art exhibition, and the Mount Albert Grammar show.

Claudia says she aims to bring a distinc-tive and contemporary feel to the beautiful and traditional medium of watercolour.

The stunning effects produced by the in-teractions of the different pigments with wa-ter, paper and each other are impossible to

resist, so of all the me-diums it is always wa-tercolour I return to.

Recently returned from Europe, her fo-cus is on New Zealand towns and landscapes, and the abstract im-ages that emerge from these local scenes.

She is largely self taught, but has at-tended numerous workshops over the years. She has received

both inspiration and tuition from Brian Mil-lard and Alvaro Castagnet and considers them to be her main influences. While living in London she regularly attended life draw-ing classes at Candid Arts Trust, drawing and painting classes at the Royal Academy through NEAC, and numerous workshops at the Sir John Soanes Museum.

First place for Mauku artist

This Saturday (October 25), a free sausage sizzle will be held in the Waiuku Town Centre as Waiuku Rotary raises awareness of their part in the world-wide drive to eradicate polio.

Since 1985, the number of reported polio cases worldwide had dropped by more than 99 percent.

For nearly 30 years, Rotary International has been fight-ing the spread of polio. Theyve raised more than $1.3 billion to protect more than two billion children from the disease. Their primary role is to raise funds, mobilise volunteers and raise awareness of the disease.

The Rotary Club of Waiuku, founded in 1960, is one of the clubs within Rotary District 9920, which includes the great-er Auckland region, together with Pacific Island clubs from eight nations. There are around 50 clubs in that group in total, making Waiukus district the largest and most diverse area in Rotary worldwide.

Since 1985, all clubs worldwide have worked to provide funds to help Rotarys fight against polio, aiming to make it only the second disease, after smallpox, to be completely eradicated in the world. Currently, the only areas left with major outbreaks are Nigeria, Afghanistan and Pakistan, and to date, the district that Waiuku belongs to has contributed well over a million US dollars to the cause.

Polio, a highly infectious disease, still affects mainly chil-dren, and many New Zealanders will recall friends and family who were affected by major outbreaks in this country in the early part of the last century. There is no cure for the disease, but for as little as 60c for an oral vaccine, a child can be pro-tected from the disease for life.

Earlier this year, the Director-General of the World Health Organisation declared polio to be still a public health emer-gency of international concern. As such, WHO urged polio-impacted countries to ensure travellers leaving their borders are immunised against the disease.

The Waiuku Cosmopolitan Club will host a Melbourne Cup Day with a difference this year, when it stages a live talk show festive event featuring leaders in the local equine industry.

Organised by Keith Ralph, who will also be running the Punters Club on Melbourne Cup Day, the afternoon will be hosted by lo-cal trainer Richard Yuill, who will chat with guests including legendary local trainer Moira Murdoch as well as Kevin and Denise Hughes and a number of other trainers, sta-ble staff and jockeys.

The Cox Plate will be on show, and there will be questions for the audience to win a variety of prizes, as well as the chance to en-joy the celebrations and await the running of the famous Cup.

The action starts from around noon on race day, (Tuesday November 4), and Keith says the atmosphere should be exceptional. He adds people who attend can expect to have some fun as well, with competitions including a version of the pin the tail on the

donkey which is bound to be entertaining!He adds that he is keen to hear from lo-

cal people who may have had an involve-ment with the racing industry over the years, whether as an owner, a trainer or a jockey, and says the afternoon will be a great op-portunity to catch up with people from the industry and enjoy a lunch and the enter-tainment.

Horse industry leaders at Waiuku event

Tyler Dunstan receives his polio innoculation from Debbie Benja-min, practice nurse at the Waiuku Medical Centre. Waiuku Rotary is part of a world-wide drive to eradicate the disease completely from the world within the next few years.

News BitesNew bylaw takes aimat home fireplaces

Auckland Council is pro-posing to introduce an Air Quality Bylaw which will focus on the management of indoor fires to reduce the emissions of fine particles into our air. Monitoring cur-rently shows that 75 percent of Aucklands air pollution in winter is due to fine particle emissions from indoor fires.

The draft bylaw will be dis-cussed at the councils Regu-latory and Bylaws Commit-tee meeting today.

Attack dog killedOne of the two dogs seized

by Waikato District Council following a serious attack near Waiuku has been eu-thanised with full support from the owners.

The other dog at the prop-erty which was not involved in the attack, has been sur-rendered to Council and will undergo rehabilitation be-fore its future is assessed.

Sue Duignan, General Manager Customer Support says, through education and engaging the family, we have achieved a good out-come for both the family and the community surrounding the property.

Ms Duignan says she is very glad to hear the victim of the attack continues to show improvement and her recovery looks positive.

Third time unlucky for would-be plumber

An Auckland man has been convicted for a third time and fined $2,500 for il-legally advertising his servic-es as a plumber and has been ordered to pay solicitors costs of $113.00 and court costs of $130. Bruce Hume advertised his services as a plumber when he was not authorised by the Plumbers, Gasfitters, and Drainlayers Board to carry out sanitary plumbing work.

Mr Hume was previously convicted for two similar offences in July of last year that resulted in a total fine of $2000. Less than three months later Mr Hume con-tinued to advertise his ser-vices.

Plumbing, gasfitting and drainlaying are regulated industries in New Zealand and it is illegal for anyone to do this work unless they are authorised to do so by the Board. Advertising may suggest a tradesperson is le-gitimate, when in fact they are not. The public should always protect themselves against misleading informa-tion and its consequences by asking to see a plumbers authorisation card.

The Boards Chief Execu-tive, Max Pedersen said: There are serious health and safety risks associated with sanitary plumbing carried out by an unauthorised per-son. Any defective plumb-ing work has the potential to cause disease and serious damage to the home.

A special ceremony will be held at the Glenbrook Vintage Railways Glenbrook station on Labour Day Mon-day morning when the com-memorative steam train Passchendaele, named after one of the bloodiest battles of World War One, will ar-rive. A pipe band, wreath laying and representatives from Railways and the Army will be involved, and follow-ing the ceremony a flypast will be performed by historic warplanes.

The public are welcome to attend the ceremony, which will commence at 10.10am and there will also be a large display of military vehicles and equipment.

In 1925 the minister of railways, Gordon Coates, agreed to a proposal to name a steam locomotive in memory of those members of the New Zealand Railways who fell in the Great War. More than 5000 railwaymen served overseas between 1914 and 1918 (out of a total workforce of 14,000), and 450 were killed.

After considering the names Somme, Le Quesnoy and Ypres, Coates chose Passchendaele.

The locomotive selected to carry the name was AB 608. Built at Christchurchs Addington railway work-

shops in 1915, this was the first of the famed class of AB Pacifics probably the most successful and versa-tile locomotives ever to run on New Zealand railways. More than 140 of these en-gines were produced be-

tween 1915 and 1926.The gleaming Passchen-

daele was one of the stars of the show at the New Zealand and South Seas Exhibition in Dunedin in the summer of 1925-26. In 1927 it was chosen to haul the Duke and Duchess of Yorks royal train in the South Island (a role it had also performed, un-named, during the Prince of Waless tour in 1920).

The memorial name-plates fitted to the engines flanks were removed during the Second World War. The originals were later put on

display at Christchurch and Dunedin railway stations (although in 1963 they were temporarily restored to the locomotive for New Zealand Railways centennial cel-ebrations in Christchurch).

By the time it was with-drawn from service in 1967, AB 608 had steamed more than 2.4 million kilometres. The locomotive has since been restored to full working order by Steam Incorporated at Paekakariki, north of Wel-lington, and will take part in First World War centenary commemorations.

We have held our final-ever Spring Festival - nows your chance to grab some incredible bargains for your Labour Weekend planting.

Exotic and sub-tropicals at clearance prices! Dont miss out!

Clearance prices as botanic maestro readies for new Rarotongan opportunityDavid Brundells 30-year passion to de-

velop a Glenbrook Beach property into a stunning garden with attitude comes to an end this year as he prepares for a new challenge in Rarotonga.

The botanic maestro created three hectares of sublime subtropical gardens amongst stunning lakes and magical hills, and is hosting a clearance sale after his final Spring Festival before taking up his role as curator of a new botanic garden in the Cook Islands. It means he leaves be-hind the internationally-known nurseries and flowering plants in Glenbrook, but for local garden-lovers it means there will be some incredible bargains over the three days of this Labour Weekend

Internationally-known for his clivia varieties, David says the majority of the plant varieties are sub-tropical, many from South Africa and South America,

areas which produce hardy bulbs which are ideally suited to the soils and climate of Franklin.

The specialist nursery features amaryl-lids such as clivia and the Fireball lily as well as exotics such as Butterfly Amaryllis and Hippeastrum. Gardenza also produce many unusual aroids, from low-growers to giants, along with an array of helico-nia, canna and more. Gardenza also hosts the truly clonal Vico Yellow clivia. Gar-denzas unique combination of stunning flowers and plants, plus the entrancing and extraordinary landscape, makes this weekends sale a must-see for floral en-thusiasts or simply anyone looking for a spectacular and unforgettable day trip. Its not to be missed, and its a final chance to enjoy Davids enthusiasm for his plants, and to add, (or begin) your own personal Garden with Attitude.

Last month, September, was Bee Aware Month and our National Beekeepers Association recorded many activities to raise awareness of the importance of bees to our society.

For example, Auckland City Council has hives on a balcony of the Town Hall and other cities are set to do the same. Federated Farmers ran a Trees for Bees campaign for farmers and many educa-tion programs are being run

up and down the country.There is much thought and

effort going in to campaigns to save the bees. Activities range from local fundrais-ing for the Save Our Bees Charitable Trust, through international campaigns to urge retailers to stop selling pesticides that kill bees, to calls for the ban on the use of neonicotinoids in Europe being replicated here.

The controversy around neonics or other pesticides being the cause of collaps-ing bee colonies is diverting attention away from consid-ering other, less exotic, rea-sons for bee deaths.

For example one of the common causes is a short-age of available food for a bee colony. Bees will forage for food over a 3km range and in many cropping situ-ations this may be an issue. When acreages of kiwi fruit

are in flower, their food sup-ply is bounteous. At other times it is the opposite.

Whether the causes are pesticide use, a lack of di-versity of food sources or something else again, the problem seems to be a con-sequence of economic im-peratives around our horti-cultural practices.

And if that is the case, then that is where we must seek a solution.

There is already a change underway in our farming practices focused on mini-mising input costs and max-imising production volumes by planting monocultures and applying herbicides and pesticides. Organics, permaculture and biologi-cal farming are horticulture methodologies seen more frequently in our rural press these days.

What they all have in com-

mon is two things. One is a focus on the soil as the means to production.

The second approach, one that goes beyond organics by mimicking natures system for food production, is food foresting.

A food forest, or forest gar-den, is a perennial polycul-ture of multipurpose plants.

What do all those words mean?

Perennial plants grow for more than two years, so a food forest implies perma-nence.

A polyculture is the oppo-site of monoculture with all the implications of sustaina-bility, reduced use of poison-ing cides and fresh foods.

Multipurpose means they can provide two or more of the seven Fs: Food, Fibre or Pharmaceuticals, Fodder for animals, Fuel or Fertiliser. And not to forget Fun.

One important thing is that food forests are de-signed to achieve a specific purpose.

That purpose could be a productive home orchard, an economic use of life-style blocks or a commercial growing operation.

To provide a community learning and demonstration site, the Franklin Branch of the NZ Tree Crops Associa-tion are considering a pro-ject to establish a Franklin Food Forest.

To support this, Franklin Treecroppers have organised a public seminar to explore what food foresting is.

To be held on Saturday No-vember 8th (1:30 - 3:30pm) at the Pukekohe High School this is an opportunity to learn more about how we might achieve a sustain-able, low maintenance food production system. Whilst a voluntary donation at the door of $10 per person will be sought, no one will be turned away.

What do you think about the concept of a Franklin Food Forest being estab-lished in Pukekohe? Post your feedback at smallblock.org.nz and register for the seminar A Food Forest in Franklin?.

portunity to learn more about how we might achieve a sustainable, low maintenance food production system.

Food Forest mooted for Franklin

A safe way for local children to enjoy Hal-loweeen is the goal of a fun event being staged for young people at the Waiuku Town Hall next Friday.

Starting at 7pm and running to 9pm, the Blue Light disco will feature prizes for the best costumes and best dancers and a canteen will be available for drinks and food. Local board member Brendon Crompton says the event is to encourage children not to go trick or treating, something which poses risks for the children, but also is of concern to residents, particularly older residents who have felt intimidated by be-haviour of some groups of young people.

Dont let them trick and treatbring them to this fun event where safety and fun is para-mount and they can dress up as any character they want, Brendon says.

Admission costs for the event is $5 per child, and for further information contact: [email protected].

Recycle All Your Stuff thisLabour Weekend at RAYS

Waiukus free recycling centre, Recycle All Your Stuff,or RAYS as it is known, has recycled more than 400 tonnes of stuff in just its first

year, and the team at the facility are delighted with the community response.RAYS owner Jurie Breytenbach says that

400 tonnes includes innumerable wash-ers and dryers, around 5000 televisions, and all sorts of recyclables from the local region. Situated in the Waiuku Business Park just off Kitchener Road, RAYS offers a free drop-off point for whiteware, electric and electronic equipment, printers, com-puters, televisions, old metal and more.

RAYS offers free pick-up in the Waiuku area, and in other areas by negotation, and Jurie says in the past year more than 2000 clients have taken the chance to recycle their old goods.

We take pretty much everything except old furniture, says Jurie, and Labour Weekend is a great time to have a tidy up around the section and get rid of the old washing machines, swing sets and trampolines, and old metal items around farms and businesses.

Many local engineering and panelbeat-ing firms, as well as farmers and house-holders, have taken advantage of RAYS collection services to get rid of their

unwanted metal items, and have them recycled in Waiuku.

Jurie says he and the yard handyman Luke Bignell enjoy being part of the Wai-uku business community, and RAYS is a member of the local business association as well as the Franklin chapter of Busi-ness Network International. RAYS has also been able to help community pro-jects, including using part of the building for a storage and sorting area for the local Rotary Book fair recently.

Jurie smiles that one unexpected side-effect of the business has been that eve-ryone is starting to call him Ray, thinking that RAYS is named after him.

Hes even starting to answer to Ray now! Luke laughs.

Open seven days a week, RAYS has pro-vided a great service to the local region over the past year already, and the team say anyone with any queries about what recyclables they accept should check out their website or facebook, or just give them a call ahead of Labour weekend.

On Saturday ACG Strath-allan officially opened its world-class hockey turf and pavilion facilities for use of both the school and the greater community.

Helping to celebrate the opening was local MP Ju-dith Collins, she says, It is fabulous to see ACG Strath-allan growing and flourish-ing. Putting in a facility of this quality for use of not only ACG Strathallan, but the wider community is wonder-ful. Im really pleased to be here today.

The hockey turf is of an in-ternational standard, and is the only turf in the country that meets the new standard set by STI, the suppliers of hockey turfs for the Olympic and Commonwealth Games. The pavilion is home to function rooms for the com-munity and changing room facilities.

We look forward to host-ing regional and national games in addition to the school grade hockey games.

160 years of European set-tlement of the Awhitu district will be marked with two days of activities on the week-end of November 15 and 16. Saturday sees a gathering at the Awhitu Regional Park carpark before a drive to the Valley of the Settlers kauri plantation. Visitors then can enjoy a gentle walk through the plantation, which was planted a decade ago to mark the sesquicentennial of the district.

People who wish to attend are asked to take along a hat, drinks, possibly a folding chair or similar, and a picnic for the picnic lunch. A vehi-cle will be available to carry gear to the viewing point. In case of inclement weather, contact Wayne Aspin (235 1074) or Jock Massey, (235 1152).

The second day of the cel-ebrations will start with an 11am service at the Awhitu Central Church, which will

This will be a great sport-ing facility addition for our community, says Robin Kirkham, ACG Strathallan Principal.

Officially opening the pavilion was ACG CEO Clarence Van der Wel, who said, This turf and pavilion enhance ACG Strathallans reputation as a top perform-ing hockey school.

The turf idea started with the passion and interest in

hockey from the students, gradually this dream has turned into a reality. Also at the event was local Auckland councilor Callum Penrose and the ACG Chairman John Maasland.

This year part of the high-light of the turf has been practice from Year 1 13. Everyone has had the chance to use the turf and there is a close association with the Waiau Pa Hockey Club.

65 years sealed with a kiss

It was a special moment yesterday for Waiukus Isobel and Jim Kelly, who celebrated their 65th wedding anniversary with a luncheon for family and friends at Barbs Bar and Diner. The couple were married at Cambuslang Congregational Church, near Glasgow, in 1949 and moved to New Zealand in 1957. Jim laughs that they were originally going to stay for just 18 months, but ended up remain-ing in the country, and moving to Waiuku in the late 1990s. They say they love the area, adding that Waiuku is the best little town in the whole of New Zealand.

Picnic and services mark 160 years

Official opening at Strathallan

be followed by the unveiling of two memorial plaques. One will mark Hilary Atchin-sons enormous contribution to the church and the dis-trict, and the second plaque and memorial seat will re-member John Mugridge for his service and contribu-tion as a leader and mentor to young people through Scouting.

This will be followed by a BYO pot luck finger food lunch at the Awhitu Social Club. Tea and coffee will be provided for participants, and there will be a chance to renew friendships and chat about the region. Donations towards the memorial seat would be welcome, and a bank account has been set up for donations. For further information on the activi-ties, or to make a donation contact Lois Templeton on 2351079 or Joan Massey on 235 1152.

JanzDogz

After 25 years in the pet industry, including run-ning a boarding cattery, a pet shop and a grooming studio in Auckland, Jan and Ivan Willis have moved to Waiuku and opened their new grooming service.

Nestled in an idyllic ru-ral property in Victoria Av-enue, Waiuku, the couple have established a dedi-cated grooming studio, where Jan can put her years of experience to use for the regions pet owners.

Jan trained under a top American groomer who was employed at their Ho-wick business, and says she learned an amazing amount from her.

Jan and Ivan say what makes Janz Dogz so special is not only Jans experience,

but also their commitment to service for their clients.

Its about giving them the full treatment, Jan says. We give the dogs a bath and blow dry, clip accord-ing to the clients wishes, check and cut their nails, ears, pads and anal glands, and shave their sanitary ar-eas.

Janz Dogs also offers free nail clipping for their regu-lar clients in between clip-pings and say their main focus is to have the dogs in top condition, and with

a cut that the client wants, not just how the groomer wants to see the dog.

Most dogs are scheduled for a clip every 10 weeks or so, depending on breed, and a full groom costs from $60 depending on the coat, but Jan says they are happy to quote on grooming costs for individual dogs.

The studio is open Mon-day to Friday, and appoint-ments are essential.

Phone 235 5550 or 0274 825 451 for further infor-mation.

The pet business is big business. New Zealanders spend $1.5 billion a year on companion animals and Australians spend $8.4 bil-lion, and as well as feeding and immunising their ani-mals and addressing health issues, many pets also need behaviour therapy.

From next year the Uni-versity of Waikato will be offering postgraduate quali-fications in clinical animal behaviour.

Dr James McEwan from the School of Psychology at the university says while there are veterinary science qualifications available in New Zealand and Australia, no university in the south-ern hemisphere offers a qualification in clinical ani-mal behaviour.

We know from vets and other professionals working in the sector that they need graduates who understand clinical practice and the sci-ence of behaviour, says Dr McEwan.

Waikato Uni offers animal behaviour degreeThe qualifications will be

delivered entirely online, and therefore accessible to students all over the world.

Dr McEwan says the certif-icate programme would suit those working in various an-imal-related industries such as zoos, conservation work, the animal care sector, and would be a stepping stone to the diploma and degree where employment pros-

pects might include animal behaviour consultant, ad-vanced animal training and animal research work.

Students who complete the masters degree will graduate with an in-depth understanding of animal be-haviour, animal health and welfare and animal-related ethical and legal matters, he says.

Theyll know how to

make clinical assessments, identify factors that con-tribute to problem behav-iours and develop behaviour modification programmes. The qualification will be aligned with the British Ani-mal Behaviour and Training Council standards.

New Radiographic (X ray) Equipment for Pukekohe and

Waiuku Veterinary CentresPukekohe / Waiuku Veteri-nary Centre have recently upgraded their radiographic equipment by purchasing two state of the art com-puterised digital X-ray ma-chines, one for each clinic.

Pukekohe / Waiuku direc-tor, Dr John Swney says Pur-chasing such equipment was a significant financial cost to our veterinary prac-tice but we see it as an es-sential tool in ensuring a high standard of veterinary care and diagnostics for our patients. Digital X-ray technology allows vets to produce high quality radio-graphic images very quickly. Such equipment also means less exposure to radiation for our patients and staff. The quality of the X-ray images produced using our new equipment is far superior to that produced using older conventional radiographic

equipment. Another advan-tage of our new system is the ability to send digital X-ray images over the internet to veterinary specialists all over the world. This will benefit our patients with complex medical conditions, as spe-cialist reports often now come back on the same day as they are sent. Previously X-ray films could only be sent via post or courier. Digi-tal X-ray technology is also more ecologically friendly as, unlike conventional X-ray equipment digital X-rays technology does not involve the use chemicals to process the image.

Pukekohe / Waiuku Veteri-nary Centre, also has a mo-bile digital X-ray unit which since its purchase 18 months ago has been used, primar-ily, for equine radiography purposes.

David Thornton, of rates action group No More Rates, says Mayor Brown is mis-leading the public when he says the average rates in-crease will be 2.5 per cent.

The truth is that the May-or is planning to increase the total amount of rates the Council collects by 2.5%, which is about $40 million, he said.

The total rates demand will be about $1.4 billion, and will be collected from all ratepayer groups includ-ing, business, rural and resi-

Sunset Coast BMX Club is hosting the North Island Titles BMX competition at its Puni track over Labour Weekend, the second-big-gest event on the New Zea-land BMX calendar.

The club has received 755 entries for the event, from 5 and unders to 50 plus age groups. Sunset Coast BMX Club is well represented, es-pecially in 6 year old boys where the club has seven riders entered, in a class of 37 entries.

Club members Vadim Bea-ver, Tommy Dillon and Fras-er Tilyard are racing in the largest class, 8 year old boys, with 50 riders entered.

Mackenzie Roberts-Craig is a strong prospect in 14 year old girls, and Cody Lush and Jordan Szasy, current NZ

Club secretary Stu Sten-house will take a break from administrative duties to race in 25-34 age group Cruiser class, as well as support-ing sons Christian (12 boys) Ethan (6 boys) and daughter Kate (9 Girls).

In the more mature age

groups, current NZ 4 Heath Long and NZ 8 Bevan Brown will be good podium chanc-es in the 35-39 Cruiser class.

Trans Tasman rivalry will be on display with the Mighty 11 competition, an annual event between fe-male and male teams of the top 4 11 year olds from each country. The NZ senior test

team of 2 x 14 year olds and 2 x 15 year olds will also com-pete against the Australians.

The event runs over Sat-urday and Sunday of Labour Weekend at the Sunset Coast BMX track at 80 Attewell Road Puni. The opening ceremony will be 10.30am Saturday and racing starts at 11am both days.

No risk to water supplyWatercares decision to close two water supply lakes in the

Hunua Ranges in May 2014 after traces of herbicide (met-sulfuron-methyl) were detected has been the subject of me-dia reports last week. Auckland Council CE Stephen Town is confident public safety was never at risk but is reviewing the reporting procedures around potential drinking water con-tamination.

I am confident that proper safety procedures were in place and were followed by the parties concerned. Watercare took all steps required to ensure that neither water quality nor water supply were put at risk, he said.

There remains a concern about who should have been in-formed of these events and when, and whether this should have been made public at the time.

I will therefore undertake a review of councils reporting procedures. Our organisation must be as open and transpar-ent as possible and that includes matters within the wider Auckland Council family that are in the public interest.

Rates group slams Browndential. The revaluation will decide how much each rate-payer will pay.

Business ratepayers do pay more than residential ratepayers but Mayor Brown is changing that by reducing the gap between businesses and residential, which will add to the increase for resi-dential ratepayers.

Another concern is that an estimated 25,000 resi-dential ratepayers will still be paying increases from the 2011 revaluation which placed a 10% cap on increas-es arising from the shift to Capital Value.

The critical issue is that property values are the basis on which rates are set and any change in value chang-es the rates which will be charged.

When the changes in value for individual proper-ties, across the whole Auck-land region, vary from zero to 65%, there will be huge changes in the rates payable on individual properties, Mr Thornton notes.

The Council can relieve some of the changes by us-ing a Uniform Annual Gen-eral Charge which is a fixed charge payable on each separately rated dwelling. The payment reduces the amount payable on the value of the home.

This charge is current-ly $375 per dwelling but could be increased to $850 per dwelling; the effect of increasing this charge is of benefit to higher value homes, but detrimental to lower value house,

This issue is proving very divisive among the 21 mem-bers of the Councils Govern-ing Body.

Protecting Aucklands cultural heritage is a key part of Auckland Councils job but so is making sure consent applicants dont find themselves tied up in unnecessary red tape, says Roger Blakeley, Auckland Coun-cils Chief Planning Officer.

There is always a balance to be struck.Dr Blakeley was responding to public de-

bate about the proposed Auck-land Unitary Plan provisions concerning mana whenua in-cluding a public meeting organ-ised by the group Democracy Action.

He says the rules in the pro-posed Unitary Plan regarding sites of significance or value to mana whenua were brought in following feedback the council had received on the draft plan asking for more protection for cultural sites and places.

The Unitary Plan hearings process is now underway and the Independ-ent Hearings Panel will review the rules as people have their say. The Proposed Auck-land Unitary Plan (PAUP) provides greater emphasis on the consideration of Mana Whenua values, establishing a framework for Auckland Council and Mana Whenua to work together.

It contains a range of provisions intended to meet the councils broad obligations un-der the Resource Management Act.

In the meantime, we need to keep focus-

ing on a balanced, workable approach. The Cultural Impact Assessment that critics have been complaining about isnt new its been around for years.

It is currently required in a very small number of cases where a property is near a site that is of value or significance to mana whenua and involves changes that could po-

tentially impact those sites. This can include, for example, for-mer burial sites or pa sites.

In the last six months, Auck-land Council has processed over 6000 resource consents and less than 200 of them (3%) triggered a possible assessment. There have been 50 site visits and 12 cultural impact assessments formally requested in that time.

As a council weve worked closely with iwi to find ways to minimise the impact on land-owners and have introduced a

facilitation service to simplify the process. This involves the council contacting iwi

on behalf of the applicant, and the iwi will say whether an assessment is needed. Most people are taking advantage of the facilita-tion service.

There is a misconception that these as-sessments involve some kind of veto from iwi. They dont. They are about iwi providing expert advice. The council takes that exper-tise into account, but it is the council that makes the decision.

Residential property investors are still confident, growing and looking to buy more properties despite rising interest rates but many would consider selling up in the event of proposed new regulations.

More than half (52%) of all respondents in the 2014 ANZ Property Investment Survey, released last week, cite govern-ment regulations and tax as their biggest worry, up from 37% two years ago.

One in three say Reserve Bank proposals that would re-quire banks to treat investors with more than five properties as commercial customers would impact their investment strategy mostly by not buying new properties, or by selling. Many also raised concerns about the proposed introduction of a warrant of fitness for rental properties.

The impact of interest rate volatility, in a year in which the official cash rate has risen 1%, was cited by one in three as their greatest concern.

Despite these concerns, investors say they expect property values to grow by 4.8%, and rents by 2.8%, in the next year.

If you are looking at do-ing home renovations this Labour Weekend, it pays to bear in mind that plumbing, gasfitting and drainlaying that people can do without authorisation is very limited.

An Auckland man was last week convicted and fined $2,000 for illegally carrying out sanitary plumbing and has been ordered to pay so-licitors costs of $113.00 and Court costs of $130.

Grahame Mills was not authorised by the Plumbers, Gasfitters, and Drainlayers Board to carry out sanitary plumbing work at a home in Mairangi Bay.

The plumbing work in-volved modifications to a shower unit and installation of a bathroom vanity. Mr Mills also connected the as-sociated hot and cold water supplies and waste water supplies for both units and installed a water pump to in-crease water pressure.

The plumbing work car-ried out by Mr Mills was de-fective. The pipework con-nected to the pump leaked

and water from the tap in the vanity was a brown rusty colour due to incorrect posi-tioning of the water pump.

Plumbing that an unau-thorised person can legally do is repairing or replacing taps, ball valves, tap washers or plugs, and fixing or unfix-ing a shower that is installed over a bath and is supplied with water through the bath taps.

Gasfitting that an unau-thorised person can legally do is any connecting or dis-connecting of an LPG cylin-der. They can also connect or disconnect or carry out other work on any port-able gas appliance that is de-signed to have its own LPG bottle attached to it like a BBQ or patio heater. An un-authorised person can also adjust the controls of any gas appliance, where these are designed to be adjusted by the consumer. Installing ducting on a central heating unit is also permitted, where there is no effect on the ac-tual burner operating.

Drainlaying work permit-

Renovations this weekend? Dont get caught out!ted to be carried out by an unauthorised person is work on open jointed or perfo-rated drains for the collec-tion and removal of ground water or a downpipe for the conveyance of water from the roof of a building.

The Board says home-owners should not risk their familys health and safety or

their insurance by carrying work that only an authorisa-tion tradesperson can un-dertake.

The Board recommends that before attempting any work of this kind contact the Board for clarification first. This way people can be as-sured they are not undertak-ing any work illegally.
