“How crazy can you be?”
Long-term residents of Ruakaka Village are voicing strong opposition to the proposal by the Department of Conservation, The Whangarei District Council and the
Northland Regional Council to create a new vehicle entrance to the beach at the end
to Te Kamo St.
Tony Tanner, who was an engineer at the Marsden A station and who lives with his
wife in Karawai St. near the proposed entrance has written to the Whangarei District
Council asking “How crazy can you get?”
He said, “Whatever is done to stabilize any vehicle access, nature will undo it. We
don’t need to predict, as we have lived in this house for 40 years and know what
will happen.”
Mr. Tanner said after some big storms in 1976 and 1977 the power station’s manDJHPHQWZDVVRZRUULHGDERXWÁRRGLQJRIQRWRQO\WKHSRZHUVWDWLRQEXWDOVRWKH
village, that it made arrangements for large quantities of sand and rock to be available should that occur.
He observed that, “The vehicle opening at the racecourse has been a disaster and
now presents a storm backed sea access to behind the dunes.”
“Good that you are to close this and re-instate the dunes. Good that you will prevent
vehicle access to the South end of the beach. Very bad that you are even considering
to open another access way at Te Kamo Street.”
“Not only will the dunes de-generate into a sandy mess, but the local area will be all
the more subject to local sand storms at every Easterly quarter blow.
He also pointed out the Te Kamo St. entrance down to the beach is widely used by
pedestrians, particularly children, and having vehicles also using this access would
be dangerous.
He urges the authorities to take another look at putting the access north of the old
power station site.
An original proposal to install the new access north of the power station land was

Sheryl Mai, Mayor of Whangarei District, will chair a public meeting to present the
Te Kamo Rd access proposal on Wednesday evening 16 December at 5pm in the
Ruakaka Recreation Centre.

Bright futures
Last week I heard a radio interview with Malala
Yousafzai, the 17 year old school girl who was shot
by a Taliban gunman in 2012. Malala, as most people
know, was targeted by the Taliban because of her
advocacy for the rights of girls to education. She is the
youngest ever recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize.
Malala now lives in Birmingham and last week she
urged young people everywhere to take their education
seriously.
“Education can give you a bright future and your
education can help your country have a bright future”,
she said.
A painting by Tessa Paton, this year’s Bream Bay
College Dux graces the front cover of this school’s
2014 magazine which was handed out last week. It is
a rather unusual picture in the surrealist style which
mixes photographic like realism with dream imagery..
Anyone who knows Tessa’s father Bruce will recognize
him as the subject with fortress walls surrounding
mountains and a lake at the crown of his head. The
beautiful slender hand of a girl catches droplets falling
from a waterfall where they turn into jewels.
$WÀUVW,WKRXJKWWKLVSLFWXUHZDVDVWUDQJHFKRLFHIRU
the magazine cover but the words of Malala made me
think about its imagery.
Tessa, and most of the other young people from the
Bream Bay College Year 13 class, have taken their
education seriously and have bright futures. Their
brightness will shine on us all.
Malala in her interview hinted at how she had found
in her new home young people who did not value

education. We have similar young people here.
I was shocked to learn how four young men went
to a private home in the middle of the night waking
the owners and breaking windows of the house with
planks of wood.
It is hard to imagine the mindset of these young men,
that they would feel so much anger and resentment.
What do they think they are entitled to and have
missed out on?
Sadly many parents and consequently their children
just don’t see or understand the wonderful opportunities
that are offered to them through a free, state funded
education. Somehow these young men have missed
out on the vision of a bright future fought for by the
brave Malala and illustrated by Tessa in her beautiful
painting.
Hopefully as they go through our youth justice system,

Midnight attack on Ruakaka
couple’s home
A Ruakaka couple suffered a midnight attack on their home by four drunken
young men in October this year.
The couple was woken just before midnight. The youths used planks of wood
to break six windows of the house.
The Police were called and the youths were arrested after a search of nearby
properties. The couple were known to the youths.
The offenders are currently making their way through the youth justice
system. Family group conferences have been arranged for the three eldest
youths while a 14-year-old is being dealt with in the Bream Bay College
Restorative Justice programme.
An 18 - year - old man has appeared in the Whangarei District Court on a
charge of supplying alcohol to the four young men.

Police want to remind members of the public that a
liquor ban is in place in the main street of Waipu and
people should not be drinking as they watch the Waipu
Christmas Parade from 7pm on New Year’s Eve.
Acting Sergeant Mark Stuart said people drinking
in public places can create disorder and in the past
revellers have found themselves heading to Whangarei
in a Police wagon.
He said it is OK to drink at licensed premises, such
as the Pizza Barn, but not to take glasses of wine or
bottles and cans of beer out on to the street.
“Really a Christmas Parade is a kids’ event and it is not
appropriate to have alcohol there.”
He also wants to remind people about the more
stringent drink driving laws.
“After just a couple of drinks you can be over the
limit. It is probably better just to abstain from drinking
altogether if you are going to be driving.”
Extra patrols will be sent to Bream Bay over Christmas
and New Year to help enforce drink-driving regulations.
Stolen van used to knock over letterboxes
A white Toyota Hilux van with registration plates
YM1243 was stolen from an address on Cove Rd
on Friday night 5 December (sometime after 8pm
and before 1am on Saturday morning) and then used
to drive over letterboxes at private homes on Cove
Rd., Langs Road, St. Anne’s Rd. and Highland Lass
Place. Two roof rack rails were lost from the van in
the process, which the Police have recovered but the
van itself is still missing. Sergeant Mark Stuart said he
expects the van to have extensive damage in the front
after driving into all those letterboxes.

Seek help before things get out of control
A high proportion of the work of the Bream Bay Police

through a number of agencies. A list of useful phone
numbers and websites is provided on page 22.

'eFePEeU %UeaP %a\ 1eZs 3aJe Attack victim discharged from
hospital and returns home to Germany
The German cycle tourist who suffered a serious
attack while camping in a pine forest around
150-metres off Cove Rd. between Mangawhai
Heads and Langs Beach has returned home after
being discharged on Sunday 7 December from
Auckland hospital where he was undergoing
rehabilitation for his injuries.
The 48 –year-old man suffered serious facial
and head injuries in the attack. He was delivered
to the Waipu Medical Centre at around 6pm on
Thursday 13 November by a passing motorist.
He had cycled from Wellsford that day and had
set up camp in the pine forest. His tent and bicycle
were later recovered from the campsite by police.
However, his personal belongings including his
passport, travel documents and clothes were not
at the scene.
No arrests have been made yet in relation to this
attack and Police are seeking help from the public.
If anyone saw the cyclist on the day of the attack the
police would like to hear from you. The man was
wearing a black Lycra suit and a dark helmet and
riding a green bicycle. Motorists travelling along

or, if you want to remain anonymous, you can

Call 111 if a situation needs dealing with
right away
Acting Sergeant Stuart said he often gets complaints
that the Police station in Peter Snell Rd, Ruakaka
is unattended.
He said, “We have four volunteers who provide
front counter assistance from 9am to 3pm from
Monday to Friday.
But he wants people to understand that he often has
to spread his attention over three stations (Waipu
and Maungaturoto as well as Ruakaka) as well as
attending to callouts.
He wants to get the message across that if you
see someone in the act of committing a crime, no
matter how minor the best resort is to dial 111. He
said it can be frustrating for everyone concerned

Community patrols, out and about at night checking everyone is safe
Bream Bay has two community patrols.
The Bream Bay Community Patrol, based in Waipu, is
made up of community-minded people who each volunteer a few hours a month to patrol from Langs Beach
to Marsden Point looking for anything suspicious.
They check for security lapses like doors and gates left
open when they would usually be closed, safety hazards such as stock on roads, inebriated pedestrians who
may need a little help, assist at road accidents until
further help arrives and assist police in various duties
which may include random breath test stop points.
The patrol group works varied hours and days, often
very late at night through until the early hours of the
morning
Members are all First Aid trained and carry First Aid
kits. The patrols have a link to Police communications
and can respond if assistance is required.
The Bream Bay Community Patrol has a signwritten
patrol vehicle, a Suzuki Baleno sedan, which has sponsors names written on it.
Patroller Jeff D’Ath advises, “If you are aware of a car
moving around slowly at night with a spotlight blazing, the signwritten vehicle will be your clue that the
patrollers are there looking out for you and your neighbours.”
Bream Bay Community Patrol is, at present, fund-raisLQJIRUDGHÀEULOODWRUZKLFKZLOOEHNHSWRQERDUGWKLV

Jeff suggests that, “If you have been experiencing bur-

glaries, domestic disturbances, vandalism, tagging, dangerous drivers, stalkers, or any illegal happenings, report

rounds.

to their community but
unfortunately there can only be one winner” and announced that this year’s recipient
is Eric Bettridge.
Eric has lived at One Tree Point for 20 years. When his wife Bev died in he decided
to dedicate his life to charity and community work.
He has been a member of the Marsden Lions for over 30 years helping to organize
the Ruakaka Spring Fair and the Santa Parade. He built sleigh and reindeer for the
parade at his own expense. For many years he ran the Lions chip van taking it home
to clean after outings.
He has put in countless volunteer handyman hours at the Scavengers recycling
shop. He built the bench in the play area off Peter Snell Rd, the steps and handrail
at the Marama Place beach access and helped set the big anchor in front of Bream
Bay College.
He has undertaken free of charge furniture removals, including moving pianos for
elderly people in the area.
He organizes and still participates in collections for child cancer and Daffodil Day

Essie said, “Even though Eric has suffered some serious illness of late, he still keeps
plodding on and helping out where he is able. It is a privilege to know him and to
have him in our community.”

After 14 months Ruakaka Town Centre
XSJUDGHLV¿QLVKHG
Baring a few details, which will be actioned over the
next few weeks, The Ruakaka Town Centre upgrade is
complete. The upgrade took 14 months as the builders
attempted to minimise disruption to the various businesses operating in the complex
Ken Orr, a director of Town Centre Properties Ltd., the
company which owns the complex said, “ To have built
much more quickly would have required each business
to close when the builders got to their frontage.
“We were delighted with the patience and cooperation
each tenant gave as the work was done. The focus was
to look after and improve the presentation of the existing businesses prior to building new shops and a car
park on the grass beside the Supervalue.
Mr. Orr said the refurbishment seems to be attracting
more customers to the towncentre.
“We are noticing the existing car park is far more full each
day with the car parks facing Bream Bay College and adjacent to the Police and Kindergarten now in full use.”
Asked about how soon a planned new block of shops
for the space between SuperValue and the Ruakaka
Library would be built he said, “We currently have a

will be built. We anticipate more enquiry over the summer period.”
Mr. Orr said, “As Ruakaka grows having an updated
and expanded Town Centre supports the businesses
that provide the products and services the community
requires while growing pride in our district.”
Dogs and horses on beaches rules
are complicated
The rules about where you can ride horses on Bream
Bay beaches are complicated.
There are two sections of beach where horses can be
ridden at any time of the day or year. These are between Karawai St, Ruakaka. to Mair Rd at Marsden
Point and from Tip Rd. near Waipu to the southern
edge of the Uretiti camping ground.
There are three conservation areas where horses are
banned at all times. These are at Marsden Bay, around
the Ruakaka Estuary and from Tip Rd to Waipu Cove
and a fourth area, the safe zone in front of the Ruakaka
Surf Lifesaving Club from just south of the Paradise
Shores beach entrance to the Ruakaka river mouth.
There is a section of beach from the racecourse to Ruakaka village where racehorse trainers have a special
dispensation to exercise horses on a daily basis. Two
stormwater outlets mark the boundaries. Before 9am
racehorse trainers can use the beach from the racecourse up to the second stormwater outlet which is located There is no time limit on when the trainers can
XVHWKHVHFWLRQRIEHDFKIURPWKHUDFHFRXUVHWRWKHÀUVW
stormwater outlet pipe.
For the remainder of the beach horses may generally
be ridden at any time of the day for most of the year but
from 20 December to 31 January there is a ban of both
Mark Wells
horses (and dogs) on the beach between 9am and 5pm.
Under the Public Places Bylaw a number of special
rules for horses apply. They are not allowed in sand
dunes ridden in “an inconsiderate, careless or dangerous manner”, they can not be swum within 100 metres
of a human swimmer and horses cannot be unloaded
RQWRWKHEHDFKGLUHFWO\IURPDKRUVHÁRDW
Police staff riding horses on the beach for enforcement
purposes are exempt from all these rules.
As with horses dogs are not permitted on beaches between the hours of 9am and 5pm during the busy summer holiday period from 20 December until the end of
January. They are banned at all times from the three
wildlife refuges at Marsden Bay, Waipu Cove and the
Ruakaka Estuary.
Two sections of beach from Taotahi Walk to Mair Rd.
and from Tip Rd. to the southern end of the Uretiti
camping ground have been allocated as all round dog
exercise areas. Dogs can be exercised here at any time
of the day.

Dog poo bins acted as dumping
depots for general rubbish
Two dog poo bins
placed at Mair Rd.
and Ruakaka Beach
in October have
become
dumping
depots for general
rubbish and were
removed last week.

placed the dog poo
bins at these two
locations as a trial

than a year ago and
replaced by signs asking people to take their rubbish home.
Dog owners were not too keen on taking home bags of dog poo in their cars and
felt the absence of bins might discourage dog owners from picking up their dogs
droppings from the beach.
“We were trying to be responsive to public demand but the experiment doesn’t seem
to be working. Unfortunately it’s just a minority of people causing the problem.”
The bins were padlocked so large bags of rubbish couldn’t be placed in them and
were emptied weekly by Northland Waste Ltd. on the same day as the Bream Bay
Rubbish and Recycling collection.
Cullen to Cove Rd. track to
re-open this week.
The walking track from Cove Rd. to Cullen Rd. through the Langsview Estate subdivision will be re-opened with new markers this week just in time for the Christmas
break.
John Donaldson of the Department of Conservation said once the new markers are
in place the DOC website will be updated to show the new route.
Several months ago a local tramping group found its passage blocked by razor wire
and private property signs when the trampers tried to use a track they had understood to be open to the public.
0U'RQDOGVRQVDLGVRPHRQHKDGSXWVRPHYHU\RIÀFLDOORRNLQJWUDFNPDUNLQJLQ
place but this directed walkers off the trail onto private property.
Gary Oborn, the Langsview Estate developer, said, in fact, the track has always
been passable. He said the property with the razor wire is private land and the owner
has the right to protect his land from trespass.
Mr. Oborn said uninvited guests had been camping on this private land.
However he said there is “no obstruction whatsoever” to people walking through
from Cove Rd. to Cullen Rd. and trampers can walk along the eastern edge of the
razor wire fence.

Seven fairy tern chicks

Five fairy tern chicks were banded at the Mangawhai sandspit last week and two
more were due to be banded at Waipu. The chicks are given a unique set of coloured

There are another two eggs remaining to hatch at Mangawhai. However, two eggs
in a second nest at Waipu were found to be infertile when they were checked for
embryos by a method known as candling: holding a light behind the egg inside a
black bag.
There are, in addition, two nests on the west coast at South Kaipara Head each with
two eggs, although the eggs in one of these nests were also found to be infertile.
There is another nest at Pakiri. The resident pair there laid two eggs a fortnight ago.
The fairy tern protection team sometimes transfers eggs between nests so birds sitting on infertile eggs can still do their bit to help their species survival by fostering
chicks.
The NZ fairy tern is the most threatened of New Zealand’s endemic birds. Once

Have a SunSmart Summer
Summer is a great time of year when we can all
really enjoy the warmth of the sun and make
the most of the great outdoors. However our
southern hemisphere sunshine is very intense
and we need to remember that as well as
enjoying the sunshine we also need to protect
our skin. If we get too much sun without
protecting our skin it can lead to sunburn and
also puts us at risk of developing skin cancers
in later life. The good news is you can be
safe and SunSmart this summer. “The best
SunSmart advice”, say Self Care pharmacists,
LV WR IROORZ WKH ÀYH 6XQ6PDUW VWHSV ´6OLS
Slop, Slap, Wrap and Stay.”

Slop – on some sunscreen

radiation is just as dangerous to eyesight as it is for the skin
Stay in the shade for protection
Sunburn can happen very quickly and the skin can turn red and be tender or
hurt to touch. It can be very uncomfortable getting sun burnt and in more severe
cases swelling and blisters can develop. Extreme sunburn can have symptoms of
fever, chills, nausea and vomiting and hospital care may be needed. We should
do all that we can to avoid these situations.
The sun burns our skin and over time causes permanent damage through skin
ageing. Natural skin pigments give some protection, but not from long-term sun
exposure. “We all know getting sun burnt is bad, but most people still think a tan
is okay. The reality is that tanned skin is damaged skin.
Did you know that it isn’t necessary to have a very sunny or hot day to become
sun burnt? Sunburn can still happen on cooler, cloudy and overcast days The
Sun Protection Alert can help you here as it tells you the exact time each day
when you should use sun protection no matter where you are in New Zealand.
This can be found in your daily paper with the weather, on the MetService and
Sunsmart websites. NIWA also measures the intensity of UV radiation and this
is known as the UV index or UVI. At nighttime the UVI is zero. During the day
when UVI goes above 3 then sun protection is needed.
How much sunscreen do I need to use? Self Care Pharmacists will recommend
at least one teaspoon for each arm and leg and half a teaspoon for your face,
nose, ears and neck. More people get sunburned on their face and neck than any
other part of the body, so apply well in these areas and don’t forget the ears!
Apply sunscreen 15 minutes before going outdoors and re-apply often (every 2 to
3 hours). This needs to be done even if it isn’t sunny, as the sunscreen gets worn
off, or rubbed off and comes off after swimming. Sunscreen is recommended for
everyone to use, for all skin types. Self Care pharmacists are able to advise on
the sunscreen product that is the most suitable for you and your family.
Look after your sunscreens. Just like our skin, sunscreens ‘age’ in the sun and
heat, and their UV-protecting properties can be destroyed. So don’t leave them
in the sun or in the car’s glove box for too long. Also, don’t keep them past their
‘use by’ dates as they do lose their effectiveness.
Your Self Care pharmacist can provide you with a lot more SunSmart information
and the right type of sunscreen for everyone. Call in and ask, especially about
the UVI, and recommendations for your family and while you’re there check out
the Skin Cancer Self Care fact card.

Waipu Cove ambassadors appointed
The Waipu Cove Reserve Board has appointed two people to job share the position of Waipu Cove beach and reserve ambassador over the summer holiday period

They are university student Ella Stolwerk
who is also a chief instructor for the Waipu
Cove Surf Lifesaving Club and Kelly Cosgrove, who is a former Department of Conservation fairy tern ranger.
Their role will be to give people information such as where and when you can take
dogs onto the beach, how to protect the
dunes, where to park vehicles and where
and when to launch boats. Between them
the women will work six-hour days, seven
days a week.
The position is funded out of earnings from
the campground, which along with the re- Left, (lla Stolwerk, middle, Paulla--ean Pridham (D2C Fairy Tern

Book signing at the Marsden Cove Market
A book signing by Simon Bliss author of Sea Legs, a
Boat’s Story will be held at the Marsden Cove Marina
Market on 18 January.

Mr. Bliss grew up in Whangarei and ran a panel beating business there from the age of 20.
While on OE in Britain in the 1970s he searched the
country for a yacht that he could sail back to New Zealand
He found Rivalé, a twenty- eight - foot sloop in need

hence the need to write my book.”, said Mr. Bliss.

Helen McGregor open medley
a chance for pipers to
VKRZFDVHÀDLUDQGLQQRYDWLRQ
The piping competition established as a memorial to the late Helen McGregor will
be held in the Waipu Coronation Hall starting at 7pm on Wednesday 31 December
– New Year’s Eve.
While dying of cancer in 2003 Helen came up with the idea that a special piping

Around 20 pipers are expected to compete for this year’s prize money - $300 for

Bain McGregor will be judge. He met his wife Helen at Blair Atholl Castle in Scotland. Bain was the piper in residence for the 10th Duke of Atholl, Ian Murray and

Helen was not a piper but played a French horn and tenor horn in the Whangarei
Brass Band and tenor drum in both the Vale of Atholl Pipe Band and the Whangarei
Pipe Band. Even though she didn’t play the instrument,“she loved the pipes”, said
Bain.
He explained that, whereas in traditional piping competitions, pipers are required to
stay within a format playing a set of three jigs and hornpipes, marches, or strathspey,
in the open medley competition they can put together a combination of whatever
music they like. They also don’t need to stay with traditional piping styles and can
slip and slur notes.

Typically a medley will start at an easy pace and get faster and faster as the audience
erupts into applause.
Bain said the competition is unique in New Zealand.

Wishing you, your family
and your friends, a safe and
happy festive season.
All the best for 2015.
WAIPU | 8 RIVER VIEW PLACE | Great Coastal Starter Opportunity
This is a seriously cute and affordable two bedroom
bach. With a peak of the water and a very short
walk to the estuary frontage - the potential is huge!
Spacious sized deck perfect for summer days and
family BBQs. Lovely flat section room for tents, cars
and boats (or extensions). This location is a rare find
indeed. No restrictive building covenants, other than
Council zoning rules.
From you local Bream Bay

Sold under the hammer!
It’s certainly been a busy time for property sales during the last month with 73 Ruakaka Beach Road and
259 One Tree Point Road being my latest Bream Bay properties to sell under the Ray White auction hammer.
If you’re thinking of selling, you can’t beat the value of experience.
Call Tina today for a complimentary appraisal and marketing advice to help ensure you enjoy a stress free experience while
achieving your real estate goals. Call me when you’re ready to go to the market or call into our new ofﬁce at
5/30 Rauriri Drive, Marsden Cove Marina. Now open Monday - Saturday.
To my valued clients, I would like to take this opportunity to wish you all a merry Christmas and safe
and happy New Year.
