Jazz up J’ville

By Julia Czerwonatis

Johnsonville resident Lisa Woodley has launched a project to beautify the suburb.

Jazz Up Johnsonville took off last Sunday when Lisa wrapped a tree in front of the community centre in yarn and hand-knitted pieces.

“It’s International Yarn

Booming Day and I thought it was a good opportunity to start Jazz Up Johnsonville with this little project,” Lisa said.

She had invited friends, neighbours and local residents to join her attaching knitted flowers, caterpillars, a jellyfish and other decorations to the tree.

Lisa Woodley said the yarn tree was an ongoing project and that people were welcome to add more decorations. PHOTO:

“We had a great turn-up with families, some elderly, and a lot of children that enjoyed climbing the tree,” Lisa stated.

She said along with the new library hub and the consent for the mall redevelopment she wanted to initiate a community project that celebrates Johnsonville.

“Over the last 10 years, people have become a little negative about the suburb.

But rather than being part of the problem, I wanted to be part of the solution,” Lisa said.

Jazz Up Johnsonville aims to foster a community spirit and utilise the locals creativity to make it a place worth living in.

Lisa is collaborating with various local groups including the

“We want to set up a book nook, a free library.

Lisa is also planning to open a repair café, launching in the community centre in August.

People can bring their broken toys, appliances, or clothes that need some repairing, and get it fixed while they are enjoying a flat white.

Members of the Karori Lions Club are part of a nationwide project helping to bring better eyesight to the Pacific Islands.

Jennie Vowles is headed towards Fiji this coming July to join a team of optometrists from VOSO (Volunteer Ophthalmic Services Overseas) that distribute donated glasses to Fijians.

“We have already packed around 700 glasses and nonprescription sunglasses, but we are aiming for 1000 until July,” Jennie said.

“The light on the islands is really harsh, and a lot of people don’t have good eyesight there.”

The Karori Lions Club collaborates with other groups such as local OP-shops to collect Lions members Jennie Vowles, Alison Johnston, and Karori second-hand glasses.

Jennie said while the project required a lot of work it was also very satisfying.

“It’s absolutely amazing to see the people with their new glasses.

Some are over the moon because they can suddenly read again.

Team member Alison Johnston enjoys coming together with the group to test and sort the glasses.

“It’s inspiring to know that you do something that will make a difference to others,” Alison said.

The Karori Lions Club has only recently become involved with the project.

It was initiated in Christchurch about 30 years ago.

Mashbone – from beer to biscuits

By Julia Czerwonatis

Mashbone project manager Kalen said the dogs were loving the new biscuits. PHOTO: Supplied

Craft beer lovers and dogs have something in common now: their favourite treat is being made at the same spot and share some ingredients.

The Garage Project in Aro Valley has launched their new product Mashbone using byproducts from beer brewing to enhance the dog biscuits.

“We are all dog lovers here.

We even have three brewery dogs,” Kalen Acquisto, Mashbone project manager explained.

The recipe was developed in collaboration with a Massey University research team.

It combines spent brewer’s mash

with local premium and all natural ingredients.

“It’s a high protein fibre mass with recycling byproducts from our brewery.

It has been clinically tested and it’s proven to improve the bone and joint health of dogs,“ Kalen explained.

“The dogs absolutely love it.

Since you can easily break the biscuits, they are suitable for big and small dogs.“ Mashbone is available in cafés, bars, pet stores, vet clinics and will soon launch in supermarkets.

The Mashbone makers suggest feeding your dog up to two biscuits daily for larger dogs, and about half a biscuits for smaller ones.

New Zealand from a wide angle

By Julia Czerwonatis

Fred Wotton, Johnsonville resident and photographer, is launching his first solo photo exhibition with his unique panoramic photography taken with an analogue camera.

Fred started with his photography 60 years ago.

“I was into cycling back then. A friend of mine and I cycled from France to Spain.” Fred said.

In 1961, when Fred lived in Jamaica, he acquired a Leica M2, a 35mm analogue camera which he still uses today.

“I took my first panorama shots when I was travelling in Chile.

It’s when I look at the scenery, and I realise I can’t capture what I see in a single shot that I shoot a panorama.”

For one wide angle photograph up to 1.4 metres, Fred takes several photos in a row without using a tripod or other tools. He takes up to five photos single handed.

“I seem to have a knack for lining photos up,” Fred said.

The hobby photographer focussed on travel photography exploring places like the United States, former Yugoslavia, Vi-

etnam and Cambodia as well as Nepal with his lenses.

In his basement darkroom Fred prints black and white photography, and creates colour negatives from his panorama shots.

“I enjoy handling the entire process from taking a photo to developing it.”

In his exhibition, A Wide View at the Odlin Art Gallery Fred will show about 25 photographs taken during several trips around New Zealand from 2006 to 2014 – some with his wife and some without her.

“I like winter photography, and she doesn’t like to be cold.

And I usually get up early, as you get the best light in the morning,” Fred explained.

The exhibits will show New Zealand’s magnificent scenery from a wide angle, featuring Tongariro National Park, White Island, Mackenzie Country, Central Otago and many more breathtaking spots.  A Wide View will be on display from June 14 -24 at the Odlin Art Gallery, 9-11 Myrtle Street, Lower Hutt. The gallery is open daily from 10am to 4pm. Admission is free.

Water tanks for Newlands The Northern Ward Councillors will be selling water tanks outside Newlands New World from 11am to 12.30pm on Saturday, June 17, for $110 each.

To reserve and pay for one or more, email malcolm.sparrow@wcc.govt.nz.

Polhill Reserve upgrade The Wellington City Council and Brooklyn Trail Builders are proposing changes to tracks in the Polhill Reserve.

They are calling for members of the public to have their say on how to improve biking, running and walking in the area.

The proposals include building three new tracks and closing two short track sections.

The main change would be a new, separate 2.5 kilometre downhill mountain bike priority track – to take downhill bikes off most of the popular Transient trail.

A drop-in session will be held on Saturday, June 17, from 1.15pm–2.45pm at the Aro Valley Community Centre, 48 Aro Street.

Find more information on wellington. govt.nz/polhill-consultation or at the Wellington Central Library, or Wellington City Council at 101 Wakefield Street.

Emergency winter funding

Warm blankets, clothes and shoes needed for thousands of disadvantaged kids. Last week Variety – the Children’s Charity launched its annual Winter Appeal to raise emergency funds to support disadvantaged Kiwi kids.

“The cold months are the hardest time of the year for these children, so we’re asking our supporters to help us meet the flood of urgent requests for assistance we receive every winter from desperate families all around New Zealand,” Lorraine Taylor, Variety CEO, said.

Variety is aiming to raise more than $40,000 to help children most in need.

Samuel Marsden Collegiate has invited Wellington artist Rebecca Holden into their art studios for a five-week residency.

Throughout different workshops, classes and art sessions Rebecca works together with the Marsden girls to create three paintings picking up topics of various fairytales.

“The idea of the residency is that students can see a working artist and respond to my work.

They can learn from me just as I learn from them when I watch them using techniques in class that I have never tried,” Rebecca said.

The artist likes to focus on visual storytelling.

“I don’t make any sketches; I just do it as I go.

The work becomes a journey that encompasses the entire process including little mistakes,” Rebecca explained.

She said she would get her inspiration from reading.

“I want to capture a part of a story that struck me as appealing or revolting.

For the residency, I also gathered ideas by just walking around Karori and taking photos.”

Rebecca said a characteristic of her work was different layering.

She works in a cigarette factory, and all the soldiers have fallen for her,” Anabel explained.

“I was one of the naughty children in the opera that cause a lot of mischiefs,” Anabel explained.

“We grow up to become soldiers, too, but we’re still too young.”

Anabel went to an audition in April and was chosen out of 60 children.

“I felt really ecstatic when they told me I was going to be part of the cast,” Anabel said.

“It was hard work, especially because the songs we sing are all in French,” she explained.

Being on stage is like a second home for the 13-year-old.

She performed in the Bacchus Theatre Trust’s production of Queen of Tarts in February and

Anabel gained a first and second placing in the North Shore Performing Arts Junior Vocal Competition and performed in the ABTC Modern Dance competition recently, gaining one second place and two third places.

Anabel said being in the cast of Carmen was her greatest success so far.

“I have learned so much. Being on stage with older actors was quite scary at first but everyone was really cool,” she stated.

“I want to keep on track with dancing, acting and singing – I don’t like stopping.

I’d love to be on Broadway one day.”

overcrowding at a relatively early stage.

We trigger this work when a school is at 85 percent capacity and in an area of population growth.”

Ms Casey said a school was not considered overcrowded at 85 percent or at any point between that and over 100 percent utilisation.

“Some schools with over 100 percent may also not be overcrowded because the school has accepted students from out of their zone – such students are not factored into the school property calculations.”

Onslow-Western Ward Councillor Andy Foster said, the numbers only indicated the classroom capacity; outdoor spaces in Wellington schools were also limited.

“There is a lot of pressure on

schools in the region” Mr Foster said.

Mr Robertson said the level of overcrowding was a direct result of the failure of the government to invest sufficiently in education over a number of years.

“We need to fund education properly to keep up with population growth and increasing costs, and that is what Labour would do in government,” he said.

Other schools with over 100 percent capacity from the northern and western region include Karori Normal School, Khandallah School, Ngaio School, Wellington Girls’ College, and West Park School.

The MoE said development schemes for all schools are underway.

A report from the Ministry of Education (MoE), released last month, showed that schools in and around Wellington are operating at high capacities indicating overcrowded classrooms.

“There are a number of schools in Wellington Central reporting overcrowding.

This has seen many of them having to use halls, staff rooms and libraries as teaching space,” Grant Robertson, Wellington Central MP (Labour), said.

“A number of schools I have visited are really struggling to get the Ministry of Education to provide even temporary classrooms to deal with the overcrowding.”

With 137 percent Karori West Normal School reaches the highest capacity in the western and northern suburbs.

The school did not want to comment on their current conditions.

The MoE is planning an additional four teaching spaces for Karori West Normal.

They are also looking to relocate technology provision to a new site to increase the school’s capacity.

“We use annual network plans to help us plan for future roll growth.

Where roll growth creates the possibility that a school will reach or exceed its capacity, we work with the school to develop an appropriate response,” Katrina Casey, Ministry Deputy Secretary, said.

“Often the solution will take some time to implement, so we aim to identify the potential for

Future of Karori Campus still unknown

By Julia Czerwonatis

Ryman Retirement Villages have announced they were interested in buying the Karori Campus to build a new retirement village.

“We would love to talk to Victoria University if the Karori campus were to come up for sale.

We think it is a great site in a well-established Wellington suburb,” David King, Ryman’s Corporate Affairs Manager, said.

“New Zealand has a rapidly

ageing population, and Wellington is no exception, so we think demand is only going to grow.

“The number of Kiwis aged 75 plus is set to nearly triple over the next 30 years, so quality retirement living options will be in demand,” David added.

The former Teachers’ College owned by Victoria University if Wellington was stopped being used as the university relocated their education hub to the Kelburn campus.

A group of residents established the Save Karori Campus

Campaign (SKCC) last year.

They have other plans for using the campus: “Our preliminary ideas for the use of a re-developed campus include spaces for commercial activities leased at market rates, spaces for community activities and innovative developments and a conference centre,” Richard Bentley from SKCC said.

He believes the campus has a lot of potential and could become a vivid community and commercial hub for Karori.

In collaboration with the Wel-

lington City Council, the group decided in March to use the Public Works Act to seek acquisition of land from the university.

Victoria agreed to put their plans for selling the property on hold for now until a solution has been found.

The council considers buying land for a new car park to be used for Karori Pool users.

“The Ministry of Education is also interested in investing in a technology hub for schools in the neighbourhood,” Onslow-Western Ward Councillor Andy Foster said.

“There is little commercial space in Karoriconsiderable interest in the community for more,” Mr Foster explained.

He said the council was interested in exploring different options.

The best solution would be a plan that suits all parties involved.

The portfolio leader for Urban Development also emphasised that the Karori Campus buildings were in great condition and destroying them would decrease the value of the property.

Homelessness captured in award-winning photo Ngaio resident and photographer roOm has won the coveted Brendan Foot Supersite Signature Piece Art Award with his piece Less is Less 05, a photographic lightbox depicting a surreal night scene.

The photographer was one of 10 fi nalists vying for the $3,000 prize. He was voted best in show by attendees of the 2017 NZ Art Show held in Wellington over Queen’s Birthday Weekend.

This is the second year that roOm has been selected as a finalist for this award.

“Every year, there are thousands of amazing artworks in the show and to be chosen as a finalist two years in a row is a reward in itself,” roOm said.

“I’m blown away that people liked my piece enough to vote it as the winner.”

The winning artwork is from a photographic series that explores

homelessness, a condition that roOm encounters a lot in his position as a firefighter.

“I’ve been working for the Fire Service for 22 years so my job entails helping people in bad situations,” roOm explained.

“I’ve seen homelessness escalating enormously over the last 10 years.

Many of the locations and objects in this series reference the state of the homeless person.”

Carla Russell, Executive Director of the NZ Art Show, was delighted by roOm’s win.

“All the finalists were outstanding, and over the course of the weekend the voting was very close: it was not clearly obvious who was leading and I felt that voting could have gone any way,” Carla said. “roOm’s piece is strangely evocative: there is an eerie mystery surrounding this work and it clearly resonated with the voters.”

Question: It’s just over three months until the general elections – are you going to vote and have you decided who you will vote for?

Hyrum Reynolds, Johnsonville

Graeme Jones, Silverstream

“I’m not eligible to vote because I’m not a resident. I hope the new government will be kind to immigrants because we have a future here.”

“I intend to vote, but I haven’t decided who for, yet. I’ll probably stay with what we have got at the moment.”

“Absolutely yes, I will vote for the Greens.”

“Yes, I’m going to vote and I know who I want to vote for: National.”

“I will vote. I’m somewhat undecided who I’ll vote for at the moment.”

“No.”

EYE ON CRIME In Johnsonville a white Toyota light van parked in the driveway of a house in Cortina Avenue was entered through a smashed window on the driver’s side sliding door. A battery powered circular saw and the battery were stolen.

In Newlands the external garage of a house in Kenmore Street was entered and searched. Two Kawasaki motorbikes were stolen.

A white Toyota Hiace van parked overnight on the street in Ruskin

Road had its left rear slide window jemmied open. A power sanding machine was taken by reaching into the van. An activated alarm probably prevented further theft.

An insecure aluminium window of a garage of a house in Black Rock Road allowed an intruder to gain entry and steal a spare key.

The house owner has since called a locksmith and all affected locks have been changed.

In Khandallah a house was

entered through a door although there was no indication of damage. A search was centred on the master bedroom. Some furniture was damaged. Property stolen includes a TV, a computer, camera, radio, and other electronic items.

The activated alarm at a house in Onslow Road was responded to by the monitoring company who reported that the house was still secure. On arrival home the owners found that the house had been

A building site storage shed located on a property in Ganges Road was broken into by ripping off the plywood door. A quantity of power tools and associated equipment were stolen.

In Crofton Downs a locked shed located below a carport at the end of a driveway of a house in Cavalry Close was broken into. Two mountain bikes and one road bike were stolen. An attempt was made to steal a BBQ from the back deck of a house in Cavalry Close. It was located half way down the steps from the deck. It is thought that noise made by parts falling off the BBQ may have caused the thieves to run off.

Gals join mud run for good cause

By Julia Czerwonatis

Girls from Samuel Marsden Collegiate joined the Tough Guy and Gal Challenge to raise funds for Cure Kids for the fourth year in a row.

The Year 6 students from Karori were easy to spot amongst the muddy crowds in their bright pink team outfits when joining the 3.4 kilometres run through an obstacle course.

“The 14 girls that went are part of a running club, so they are fit enough for the challenge,” Marsden teacher Kate Feary said.

“The girls were wearing pink wings, tutus, and hair ribbons which looked quite hilarious,” Marsden teacher Callie Ballara added.

The Marsden team won an award for the best dress up at the run on May 27.

The nationwide challenge for young and old is still on until the end of August.

Callie and Kate said they were impressed by how well the girls mastered the mud run with great team work.

Student Emily McDonnell said it was fun getting muddy and not to worry about her clothes.

“It was a really cool experience,” student Charlotte Hille added.

Labour launches campaign in Ohariu

By Julia Czerwonatis

Labour candidate for Ohariu Greg O’Connor launched his election campaign last week at the Johnsonville Bowling Club, inviting locals, friends, family and party members.

“We are turning Wellington red,” Grant Robertson, Wellington Central MP, said in his opening speech. “The time has come for Peter Dunne’s long and faithful service to end.”

Mr O’Connor represented the Police Association for two decades until he stepped down last year.

He said he was looking for a new challenge and wanted to focus on issues that have been neglected in the region.

“I’m currently involved with the discussions around Johnsonville Mall redevelopment.

I also want to focus on housing, mental health services and parking problems in the region,” Mr O’Connor said.

“I want to ensure the Johnsonville Police Station is open to the public longer than the four hours per week day it is now, and that the electorate gets more local visible policing.

“The public and private transport concerns are an essential factor in any development, and the effect on existing infrastructure needs to be addressed.

Q

“An example is the need for a rail station at Glenside to offer public transport options and to take pressure off parking near other stations, especially in Johnsonville.

Mr O’Connor said he had proven his ability to advocate on a local and national stage.

“The very reason I moved on from my previous position at the Police Association was that even though I was at my peak, leading a multimillion dollar business and advocating for police. Both I and the organisation needed refreshing.

The same political refreshing will be good for Ohariu.”

Labour Party Leader Andrew Little who joined the launch party last Wednesday said Labour had had an eye on Ohariu for a while.

“Greg is a confident guy.

I’m sure he has a chance against Peter Dunne,” Mr Little said.

“It does not matter how long a person has been doing a job, there comes a time when a fresh face, a fresh approach, and fresh attitude is essential in every situation, especially a non political one,” Mr O’Connor said.

Mr Robertson proved his abilities as auctioneer selling pieces like the tie that Justin Lester wore the night he was elected Mayor of Wellington, while the crowds enjoyed nibbles and beers.

With social worker Judy Dunce

A

By Julia Czerwonatis

Johnsonville resident and social worker Judy Dunce has recently finished a research report on bullying in schools. The former travel agent and trained pilot had made a U-turn in her career after she travelled and volunteered in eastern Asia engaging with children that live in poverty. The mother of two spoke to the Independent Herald about her anti-bullying research and engagement in the Wellington Thai community.

Why did you choose it as a topic?

I was writing about implementing anti-bullying programmes in schools. It was a qualitative research, which means I conducted several interviews with social workers in schools. I was trying to figure out how we can make it easier to implement programmes.

There is a wide range of challenges that makes it hard for schools and teachers to address bullying issues. For instance, teachers are under pressure of the curriculum requirements; they don’t have much space and time to fit it in.

Wellington City Council’s social housing team, City Housing, was named a winner in all four housing award categories it had been nominated for in the New Zealand branch Australasian Housing Institute Awards held in Wellington last Friday.

The win puts the council in the running for the Australasia-wide awards being held later this year.

Deputy Mayor and housing portfolio leader Paul Eagle said it was the combination of professionalism and compassion that makes City Housing exceptional.

“It rewards the hard work done on the ground by our staff.

They’re out there every day all across the city assisting our tenants with their needs.

“The council made a vital decision 10 years ago to keep our social housing and care for our wonderful tenants.

“The decision then to enter into a $400m partnership with central government to redevelop our social housing stock continues to deliver outstanding results,” Mr Eagle said.

The city council has provided social housing since the 1950s and is working towards growing its social housing provision and also the amount of affordable private housing for people wanting to live in this city.

Stall coordinators needed

&

What did you focus on in your recent research?

Social Housing awards

Bullying is a nationwide problem. New Zealand has a high tolerance for violence. It is accepted as a rite of passage, and many teachers and parents don’t know how to address it.

Someone in my family was bullied, and the effect on him was huge – I could see how big the impact on his personality was. So I thought about what could be done about the issue and started researching.

So what is your conclusion?

Intervention needs to be implemented on a wider range. Schools should include parents and members of the community. They also need to have a reporting system in place.

You have only recently qualified as a social worker. What have you been doing before?

I had a very varied life. I trained as a pilot because my dad was a pilot, and I guess, I wanted to be adventurous. But my travels and education led onto another adventure. After I finished the BA of Aviation I worked as a travel agent.

I had the opportunity to travel a lot in my job. And a few years back I volunteered in an orphanage in Vietnam, and in a foster home in China which put me onto the idea of becoming a social worker. It was all the poverty that struck me. When I came back home, I just thought it was so wrong. So I did

a lot of research trying to understand.

Your travels didn’t only have an impact on your professional life but your personal life too. What is the story behind that?

Yes, I have adopted two children from Thailand. I think one of the most special things that came with adopting my children is the involvement we now have with the Thai community. They gave us the opportunity to learn so much about the culture, and they made us feel included and welcome.

Last year we went back to Thailand to meet my children’s biological family. It was amazing; they were delighted to see the children and to see they’re doing well. We hope to go back soon.

Jazz nights out

By Dan Taylor

Jazzy tunes filled Wellington’s streets, bookstores, churches and bars last weekend as the capital hosted its annual Jazz Festival, with over 100 gigs in five days.

Around 250 musicians from both New Zealand and internationally descended came to play their music to jazz-enthusiastic crowds.

The Wellington Night Market in lower Cuba Street hosted several open air events on Saturday

night, with Black Spider Stomp, The Front-liners and AfroKan taking the stage on a crisp winters evening.

On Sunday Kelburn Village Pub played host to two festival events, including Wellington Heads who played to an appreciative crowd on Sunday afternoon – one couple even braving the standing room only space to dance enthusiastically.

The Drinking and Dancing Society took to the stage afterwards with their New Orleans style jazz blues.

Persimmons for Wellington families A chain of volunteers and donors starting with a Waikato orchard and extending to frontline charities in Wellington supplied three pallets of donated persimmons to those in need.

The surplus persimmon fruit is being distributed to Wellington families thanks to a coordination effort from food rescue organisation Kiwi Community Assistance (KCA).

The north Wellington based KCA heard about the surplus and worked through its donors and support companies to get the surplus fruit brought to Wellington, for the second year in a row.

KCA co-founder Tracy Wellington said over the six years they’ve been operating KCA has built up relationships with companies and other organisations keen to help those in need.

BA Heat Pumps Ltd Registered Electricians

• Heat Pumps • Solar • Electrical • Eftpos is Now Available • Finance Available

“We were helped by a Waikato orchard which donated the persimmons, Community Fruit Hamilton that picked it, and LinFox Logistics Ltd who freighted it to Wellington and then our own volunteers to organise distribution,” Tracy explained.

“It’s heartening to think of the chain of good will from all the many different people and organisations involved that donates, picks, packs, transports and distributes it to those in need in the Wellington region.

“We know from the comments we get back from our charity partners that people particularly like getting fresh fruit and vegetables when they can.”

Each year KCA provides food to 40,000 people in need in the Wellington region.
