Performing after all the other teams, Te Tira Whakaau not only emerged the overall winners, they also dominated almost every section of the competition – winning nine of the 11 sections.

They were victorious in the Kait taki Wahine, K kahu, Whakaeke, M teatea, Waiata -ringa, Poi, Haka, Whakaw tea and Te Kairangi o Te Reo.

This year saw Wainuiomata High School take a near fullsquad to the regional competition

for the first time in a long time, with 35 students in the group.

All the team are students in the school’s Te Kura Matua o Wainuiomata, which focuses on learning from a M ori perspective.

This year’s victory is the first for Te Tira Whakaau since they won the 2015 competition in Upper Hutt.

They have also finished as runners-up twice recently – in 2017 and 2021.

“It was a great win,” the head of Te Kura Matua o Wainuiomata, M tauranga Te Rauna,

told the “Wainuiomata News”.

“The growth of the Kapa Haka can be put down to the growth of the Wharekura.

“A huge thanks goes out to the students, people behind the scenes and our amazing tutors Isjara Waiwai, Riana AtamaAdams, Taikaha Olsen and Ginny Maxwell.”

Following its regional victory, Te Tira Whakaau will now contest the national Kapa Haka competition in Nelson next year.

It is one of two teams from the Hutt Valley and Wairarapa that

will compete in Nelson. The other is the regional competition runners-up Te Ara Whanui.

“The group now has a hard task and that is to fundraise to go to the National competition,” Mr Te Rauna says.

As well as fundraising, Te Tira Whakaau is also seeking sponsorship for the national competition, and would welcome being sponsored by businesses, wh nau or individuals. More information is on the Wharekura Facebook page, www.facebook.com/tekuramatuaowainuiomata.

Q: What’s the most iconic movie line?

Community Patrol needs volunteers

By Frank Neill

The Wainuiomata Community Patrol is seeking volunteers so it can provide better coverage of the valley. Every Friday and Saturday, as well as other random days during the week, the patrol is out and about, keeping an eye on Wainuiomata.

“It would be great to get more days out,” the Community Patrol Co-ordinator Tracey Mansfield says.

To do that, the patrol needs more volunteers. Ideally, they need enough people so they can patrol every day of the week.

To find out more about volunteering for the Community Patrol contact Tracey at wainuipatrol@gmail.com or 027 637 5817.

“Help keep your neighbourhood safe while making new friends and learning new skills,” Tracey says.

“With flexible hours and support from the team, you can volunteer at a time that works best for you.

“Together, we can create a safer and stronger Wainuiomata,” Tracey says. The time commitment is not big

either. People who can volunteer for four hours a month would be welcome. If they want to, people can also volunteer to serve for longer.

“Our main aim is to deter crime – deterring and preventing things before they happen,” Tracey says.

The patrol does this by being visible and highly present.

“Although we can’t measure it we know that we do deter crime.

“You are not going to break into somebody’s house if you are going to be seen by the community patrol,” she says.

The community patrols provide an “invaluable service” to the community, says Sergeant Patrick Tangipo, Officer in Charge of the Wainuiomata Police.

The service “works really well as the eyes and ears of the Police, to see what is going on in the community and to work towards making Wainuiomata a safe place.

“When something happens they are often in the right place at the right time and can pass the information on to us.

“They are a good source of intelligence and can alert us to something we need to look at.

“With their intelligence and ringing us, they help us build a picture of who’s out and about.

“I think they are a great asset to have out there in the community.”

Sergeant Tangipo gives two examples of where the community patrol had helped the Police.

During last year’s spate of burglaries of constructions sites, the community patrol alerted Police a number of times when they observed people on building sites.

One person did not have authority to be on the building site.

“Having the community patrol around also provided extra security for these construction sites,” Sergeant Tangipo says.

Following the spate of construction site burglaries, the Police arrested some alleged offenders.

The second example was that the community patrol alerted Police to a person who was rifling through the dumpsters behind the hospice.

Pharmacies are important

The pharmacists in Wainuiomata are the health professionals people see most often. No appointments are necessary. Health advice is free.

I’m worried that if corporate pharmacies are allowed to take over, there will be a focus on profits rather than people. I love Wainuiomata, and work hard to support this town. At our pharmacy we know almost everyone who walks in the door by name.

I’m also concerned about the implications for public safety if pharmacists lose control of their pharmacies. Pharmacist ownership is intended to safeguard public safety and ensure pharmacies align with ethical standards. We have a commitment to our community with access to safe and effective medicines. This often means the prioritisation of health over profit.

Pharmacists have skills in the management of health conditions and play a core role in health service delivery. Our role is expanding to reduce pressure in other areas of the health system. Examples are increasing levels of vaccinations and minor ailment consultations. It is my firm belief that decisions about pharmacy ownership must not come at the expense of the health and well being of our wonderful community.

Changing Your Life: With the road forward

“We can support you on your journey from a life of torment to one where you are thriving and living the best life possible,” says Tony Thorn, peer support worker and now General Manager of The Road Forward. For those of us damaged by sexual trauma, we’ve been harmed because a sexual boundary has been crossed.

“We often tell ourselves stories that aren’t quite right. We can’t do intimacy. We’re reactive in situations where we feel threatened (which can be often). We don’t trust. We pick the wrong people to be around, and we repeat our mistakes.”

How does Tony know this?

“Before I went on my own journey with The Road Forward, you only had to spend five minutes inside my head,” he says. “I could look highly functioning on the outside but, on the inside, I’d be riddled with crippling selfdoubt, negative hate talk, anxiety, depression, wanting to shut myself away … you name it. I have lived experience of the impacts of sexual trauma.”

The big thing is having the space, the opportunity, to name what you are feeling. “When I can name what’s going on for me,” Tony says, “half of the issue disappears. There’s an amazing relief that accompanies saying out loud that my anxiety is in the room or I’m feeling paranoid right now or a dozen other things.”

Not trusting that we have the space to name our feelings is especially true for men. Even more so for male survivors of sexual trauma.

“If we can’t name what we’re feeling, we’re more likely to try and numb them, generally harming ourselves more and often resulting in addictions ranging from alcohol or eating to cutting our bodies and work ing too hard.

We’re also more likely to hurt others with our withdrawals, our reactive anger, maybe worse. And interactions with our children can be scary and challenging.”

Statistics show that up to 11 people experience the negative impacts of one person’s sexual trauma at any one time –including partners, children and grandchildren, friends, work colleagues and managers, church members, and sporting buddies. It’s never too late to change how you feel and how you affect others.

Contact our trauma-informed peer workers. The Road Forward has a presence in Wellington, Lower Hutt, and Kapiti and is now available across the Wairarapa for male survivors of sexual harm. There’s no cost, no judgement, and no limits on your access to support. The Road Forward is a fully funded charity, assisted by government and by grants.

THEN AND NOW: By Wally Richards

Having lived for nearly four score years one can recall what things were like 50 odd years ago and relate that to a comparison of what has happened since then. I often have telephone discussions with people my age and older and sometimes the subject of gardening leads to other things and one aspect that has a common agreement is that back in the 50’s and 60’s this country was a great place to live in and we used to call it ‘Gods Own’ and be very proud to be Kiwis. Sadly those time have long gone and many people of our ages say our advantage is we dont have long before we are gone out of here but have deep concerns for our children and grandchildren. That is a very sad situation. When I was a young fellow like about 10 years old I was lucky to experience two situations which are very vivid in my mind today and I would like to share both of them with you. One was a school friend whose name is Henry Nom, his father was a Chinese market gardener in Palmerston North and his mother was a Maori lady. In the weekend I used to go to their market garden and help harvest produce for the market on Mondays. My reward would be to have a meal at their house at the end of the day. One week it would be traditional Chinese food and next time Maori Ki. I learnt that the only fertiliser used to produce the crops was Blood & Bone along with some animal manures when available. Back then the meat works would produce vast quantities of Blood & Bone and sell it in ton bags. The blood and bone back then was rich not like the blood & bone today because the products are now used to make animal foods and animal biscuits so the inferior product we now have is a lot of chalk and only a little blood and not much bone if any. Garden Lime was the other product used and the land which market gardeners used was rich anyway been river silt. Vegetables grew at their own speed and were healthy and free of most diseases and pests. The soil was rich in earthworms and microbes so every thing was very natural. This meant we had a highly nutritious food chain and when you cooked a cabbage back then it would stink out the house. A few years ago I met up with another Chinese market gardener who had a few acres of land growing vegetables for the market. His family home was on the same land and his In his backyard he has a vegetable garden which I asked him why as he had tons of vegetables on the rest of the land? His reply was he grew at home vegetable for himself and family cause they were healthy and safe to eat. reply no good too dangerous for health of family. His produce for selling used man made fertilisers and forced to grow with lots of nitrogen such as Urea.Thus the plants were not healthy and in fact weak which means the cleaners in Nature being the insect pests and diseases would attack the weak plants to make way for healthy plants. Thus numerous chemical poison controls are sprayed on a very regular bases and those chemicals are in the produce we buy and consume. Commercial growers whom I feel sorry for as they have high overheads and low returns and to make ends met they need to grow as many crops on their land in a year as possible. To do this they force plants to grow with nitrogen fertilisers. Their land after a few years of cropping is infertile having lost all soil life and its only by large amounts of man made fertilisers that any thing grows at all. My other experience was spending many holidays on my uncles farm at Bell Block in Taranaki. He had about 100 acres and ran about 100 dairy cows on it so normally the animals had ample naturally grown grass and in spring after the spring growth a few acres would be left to grow and in summer harvested for hay to supple-

ment the grass which is slow growing in winter due to the short day light hours. Now back in those days a farmer with a hundred acres and a hundred cows was considered a wealthy man. The urine and manure produced by the animals feed the grasses because the soil was rich in earthworms and microbes breaking down the animal manure/urine into rich food to grow the grass. If you turned over a cow pad (dried manure on soil) underneath one would find lots of Tiger Worms breaking down the pad. The stock was healthy so no costly vets to sick animals and the only outlay was lime for the paddocks to keep the pH right for the soil life and grasses. In the corner of the farm there was a stream that flowed through; the water was crystal clear and it hosted what was called mountain trout that were a metre long when mature. chickens. My auntie had a big vegetable garden and Later on farming changed with the advent of superphosphate and man made chemical fertilisers. The hundred acres could now host say two hundred cows that doubles the income but at what costs? The soil life disappeared along with the earthworms, the manure and urine were no longer broken down to feed the grass instead they became pollutants leaching into water ways destroying the water life. The grasses are forced to grow and no longer have the high carbs and nutritional goodness drenching (more chemicals) and vet care. The milk is inferior along with the meat which is what you buy in the supermarket.

Very rich and you cant eat much of it in a sitting. Another thing I remember is that very few people had or died of cancer back then ( sometimes called wasting disease) and unheard of babies been born with cancer, also very rare in children. Seldom did you see an over weight person and if you did it was usually caused by health problems. The food chain back when I was a boy was very healthy and contained high nutritional value. Now days the only economical way to have great tasting, healthy food to grow your own, naturally. I saw on TV one news the other night that aspartame have been deemed to be a possible carcinogen by WHO and the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) I read about this aspect a number of years

I recall reading also that a scientist in Monsanto when developing a new weed killer happened to put a finger to his lips and noted the chemical was sweet. Hence Aspartame came into being as a sweetener in drinks and food. I also read it did not help with diets because when taken regularly it helped put weight on. Well thats one truth that has finally come to light lets hope truth is on a roll and more hidden truths are revealed. In case you are interested have a look at https://www.globalresearch.ca/video-destabilization-world-economy-prof-michel-chossudovsky/5824026 You can see this happening in New Zealand as well as elsewhere.

A very enjoyable show

By A Gadsby

I was wrapped to be invited to attend the Wainuiomata Intermediate School music evening on Wednesday night – a concert where students showcased the musical skills they’ve practised in the first two terms of 2023.

The evening began with some guitar with raw emotive singing and an introduction by Doug ten Broeke, WIS’s music teacher.

Intermediate music night a big success

Wainuiomata Intermediate School held a music evening on Wednesday 28 June.

The evening showcased highlights from the school’s fresh new music programme this year.

The school now offers Music Therapy, extra Instrument tuition, band classes and their usual Music Tech classes.

Music teacher Doug ten Broeke says his goal was to build more confidence in students with performing and playing instruments, and also

Trades

to encourage students to play more regularly either in home practice or performance.

He believes this will inspire students to collaborate more with each other and learn from each other and create a more rich music culture in the school.

“The night was a success with a full house of super proud and engaged parents seeing their children grow and improve their skills as musicians,” Mr ten Broeke says.

“The night had a lovely intermission

with refreshments provided by Helen Calcinai (Home Economics) and her top notch Maanakitanga group.

“Many positive comments were made about the progress these students made in just six months and excitement of where they will get to by the end of the year.

The event lasted just over an hour and was closed happily by Principal Craig Sharp who was very impressed with the students’ progress, performance and the very pleased parents who attended.

Kaihatu Herbert Te Awa MCed the evening’s show and warmly introduced the first act of the night.

Kicking off the first half of the show with the lovely favourite ‘Don’t Worry, Be Happy’ was the Music Therapy class, keeping a good time and enthusiastic beat to warm up the evening.

Following on there were some nice performances including some cool drum beats and fill combos played by Trey Zell Marino and Meihana Maangi.

I liked how the two had completely different drum sounds,

while both playing with conviction and intent.

In the last performance of the first half, Connor Johnston beautifully played the theme tune to ‘Insterstellar’ on the piano and encapsulated just how epic the theme tune is.

After a short break featuring some kai made by the students, the second half of the show began.

Jacey Nicholas had the audience humming along to Golden Hour as she played with focus and continuity.

As someone who got up on stage performing in a band as a youth myself, I truly admire the courage and bravery that the next generation has to get up and perform in front of a large crowd of people.

The evening ended with the two school bands showcasing some excellent musicianship for their level, each band was very tight and sound convincing.

This was a very enjoyable show, given by some very high-spirited and talented young people.

PAINTERS

Correction

The photograph of the Wainuiomata Intermediate School students performing at the opening of Artstart’s exhibition, which was on page 1 of last week’s “Wainuiomata News”, was incorrectly credited to Hadleigh Harrison. The photo was taken by Dan Heald. There was also an error in the article where it stated that Wainuiomata High Schools students Mihi Whataku and Mae Brown also featured in the Artstart exhibition. It should have stated that Mae Brown also featured in the exhibition. The “Wainuiomata News” apologises for these errors.

Waiu wetland transformation continues

By Frank Neill

More than 300 natives were planted in the Waiu Wetland by the A Rocha team of volunteers on 17 June.

The A Rocha team meets on the third Saturday of each month and is transforming the formerly degraded wetland in partnership with Hutt City Council.

The area was once used as a tip for tyres and other car parts. Since 2012 it has been transformedby clearing blackberry and gorse, and planting natives.

“Last month's working bee had to be cancelled with two wet Saturdays in a row but thankfully this time the weather was fine with only the lightest of showers,” the Wainuiomata

A Rocha leader Richard Rhoades says.

People are welcome to join the working bee on the third Saturday of each month.

Morning tea is provided and is a great time to meet new people with a passion for restoring nature.

For more information contact Richard Rhoades atrandjrhoades@gmail.com.

A Rocha is a Christian environmental organisation working across six continents and 20 countries in research and nature conservation.

Brownies walk to raise funds

The girls from the Wainuiomata Brownie Unit (Kai Arahi Brownies) recently completed a Walk the World Walk/Ride-a-thon Challenge to pass off the final clause to earn their World Thinking Day 2023 Badge.

World Thinking Day is celebrated each year by members of Girl Guides and Scouts to mark the birthday of Lord Robert Baden-Powell and his wife Lady Olave Baden-Powell. Along with his sister Agnes Baden-Powell they started the Scouting and Girl Guiding movements in 1908.

The girls had to decide on a goal amount of laps they were going to aim to complete. They then gathered sponsors for donations and words of encouragement.

The group met at Parkway Park, where the girls completed laps of the concrete pad beside the park.

They used scooters, bikes, roller skates and also a few of laps of running and walking to achieve their set individual goals.

Eight girls, aged 6, 7 and 8 years, old participated.

Over the 30 minute duration of the challenge the girls completed a combined 177 laps (before the challenge they calculated that one lap was equal to approximately 150 steps, so during the challenge the girls covered a distance of approximately 26,550 steps).

Adalynn Lahood (8), Layla McLaughlin (8), Evie Glover (8), Honey-Chardelle Griffiths-Tamaka (8), Ariana Tamarapa (7), Blake Beyer (7), Harmony Shackleton (6) and Penny O’Connor-Thompson (6) participated in the challenge.

“Thank you to all the girls’ family and friends that encouraged and sponsored them during their challenge,” the Brownie Leaders from the Kai Arahi Brownie Unit say.

The Brownie leaders “are also super

proud of the girl’s achievement, and the total money raised by the girls well-exceeded our expectations.”

The girls raised a total of $438.40 that will go to the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGGS).

Brownies is for girls aged 7 to 9.5 years.

Women secure a big victory

By Ryan Imray

Only one Football game needs to be highlighted from the weekend and that is the 2 July game involving the Wainuiomata women’s team.

Playing away from home against newly formed side Naenae Dragonflies, the women put on a performance that will be remembered for a very long time.

Things got off to the perfect start in the third minute when Amber Almaz-Down went for a run down the left hand side to open the scoring for Wainui.

Ashley Porter and Leanne Smith added to the tally to give the side a 3-0 lead at half time.

The team then went up a gear and scored nine second half goals to give them a 12-0 win.

Captain Jonelle Smith got on the score

sheet along with Kayla Wilson who got two and Minra Jinna who got her first hat trick of the season.

All the talk, however, was about Leanne Smith and Rachel Shardlow.

Leanne secured a hat trick that sent the club’s social media page into a frenzy.

Rachel, who is the club’s goalkeeper, not only kept a clean sheet but managed to get a goal in her 20 minute cameo up front.

Halfbaked, The Undertakers and Pasifika walked away with points with all three sides drawing their games on 1 July.

The Premier team suffered a heart breaking 2-1 defeat to the Wellington Phoenix Thirds.

Despite Hadley Attewell’s strike and Wainui spending a majority of the game in the attacking half, they were unable to find that elusive equaliser that they so thoroughly deserved.

Good win for Ulalei Fuesina

Ulalei Fuesina beat Naenae Collegians

33–26 in their Netball Hutt Valley match on 1 July.

Charvarna Williams was a standout performer at goal keep, utilising her elevation and athleticism, to secure constant turnover ball for her team.

Charvarna collected a plethora of deflections, intercepts, rebounds and a couple of rejects on the shot to contribute to her team's victory.

Fuesina led at half time 18-13 and held onto the lead for the remainder of the game.

In the mid court, Caelyn Rangihuna sent in a number of beautiful feeds to the goal circle which were finished off with excellent shooting from goal shooters Drew McLeod and Shaelyn Kilburn.

One of the spectators noted the vast improvement of this team from their first game of the season. Given it is only halfway through the season there is a real excitement factor surrounding this team with the potential to continue to develop and succeed.

The recent addition of a number of Wainuiomata High School players has cemented the pathway to Ulalei. Fuesina is mainly made up of High School players, who benefitted from an ANZ grant that subsidised fees for secondary school aged players.

Ulalei is grateful for the support from ANZ that allows its young players to play the game they love.

In other results Ulalei Aute beat Upper Hutt Rams 69-60 to continue their winning form making it three from three for the club’s top team.

Ulalei Laga’ali had a double header and won both games convincingly 33-15 against Upper Hutt Maidstone 9 and 33-20 over Stokes Valley Rugby.

Ulalei Pu lulu, Ulalei Puataunofo and Ulalei Moso’oi played some excellent passages of netball, but went down to Naenae Collegians, Upper Hutt Rams and Blitz Netball Academy respectively.

Round two starts at the Walter Nash Stadium on 8 July.

Convincing victory for Wainuiomata

By Frank Neill

Wainuiomata kicked off its 2023 Hardham Cup campaign with a convincing 53-38 victory over Northern United at William Jones Park on 1 July.

First five eighth Tyler Tane was in stunning form for the home team, running in three tries and kicking six conversions, a penalty and a dropped goal.

His 33 points sees Tyler sitting on top of the Hardham Cup points scoring table – well ahead of second-placed Jeremiah AveiCollins from Northern United. It also sees him sharing the lead in the top try scorers’ table.

Another of Wainuiomata’s outstanding players, Peter Umaga-Jensen, also scored a try – one of seven the team scored.

Penata Katuhi, Teru Time and Markus Stowers-McCarthy also dotted down.

One aspect of the match that was not so good for Wainuiomata was its second half performance. It scored all 53 of its points in the first 40 minutes to lead 53-17 at half time.

This is not the first time that Wainuiomata has put on an outstanding first half, and a less than satisfactory second half.

In fact a week earlier they led second placed Johnsonville 15-8 at half time only to lose the

18-32.

If they can put together two good halves, Wainuiomata will be hard to beat in the Hardham Cup.

The team’s 1 July win means they have qualified for the quarter finals of the Hardham Cup competition, contested by the second tier Wellington premier Rugby clubs and will meet Poneke on 8 July.
