Out & About on the Shore

Takapuna District Cricket Club hosted their inaugural fundraising golf event at Pupuke Golf Club on Thursday 24th February. The event was held in conjunction the Sports Foundation, supporting kids through sports who have lost a parent. Although hoping to raise in the region of $10,000, club organiser Daryl Quinn emphasised the focus was firmly on all 80 players having a great day. That was certainly the case when the Channel team attended! The Party Hole on the 17th with DJ providing cool sounds, plus drinks, foods and goodies in ample supply throughout the course, ensured the 20 teams were certainly having a whole heap of fun. Generously supported by their sponsors, the event went through the day and into the night to support Takapuna District Cricket Club restore its club house.

It was an extremely well-run and successful day of competitive yet fun golf, attended by some of the best pros in New Zealand who teamed up with event sponsors, club members and guests. A great group of event partners provided food and refreshments on the sun-drenched course, with prizes awarded to the winning teams and the top pro winning a prize purse of $11,000.

The Inner Wheel Club of Shore City marked its twentieth anniversary with a celebratory lunch at McHughs of Cheltenham on Monday 14th February. Due to restrictions last September, the club had to postpone celebrating on its actual twentieth anniversary, but members were delighted to return to the very same venue which held their first Charter Dinner back on 14th September 2001.Guests of Honour included three IW Shore City founding members (Maureen Kearney, Rae Innes and Denise Bulluss), along with IW New Zealand President, Michelle Atkinson and District NZ291 Chairman Adrienne Davies. After Gwyneth Higginson (current IW Shore City President) welcomed past and present members, partners and friends, the Candles of Friendship and Remembrance were lit, followed by a poignant poem and the presentation of special awards to honour active members. Liz Poore, Gwyneth Higginson and Joan Simpson. Lunch and drinks were shared by all, and a beautiful cake was laid out. Commemorative memorabilia highlighting milestones in the Club's twodecade history was displayed as a reminder of their achievements, awards, and the many charities and causes they have supported over the years. Inner Wheel is one of the world's largest women's voluntary service organisations, operating in 100 countries and with speaking rights in the United Nations on issues relevant to women, children, families and the the elderly.

Tamariki o Takarunga - Mural on the Maunga

Devonport Primary School (DPS) principal Beverley Booth, DPS Art Education lead and teacher Maria Zivkovich, local artist and parent Jessica Pearless and the DPS children and whānau recently celebrated their new mural, Tamariki o Takarunga. Positioned with pride at the entrance to the school located on Takarunga (Mt. Victoria), this student- and artist-led project was a collaboration between over 240 DPS kids, the artist, the school, Lance Cablk and Zane Catrell of Restoring Takarunga Hauraki and the wider parent communities. After Maria's successful application for a Ministry of Education competitive grant for Creatives in Schools, Jessica was able to guide the children in a five month-long project to create a mural reflecting students' exploration and connections with the maunga that is literally the foundation of their school and a sacred ancestor to mana whenua. Students learned about traditional Māori cultural values of manākitanga (respect and integrity) and kaitiakitanga (guardianship and protection) of the whenua. Through exploration of the maunga the students identified native plants and birdlife, with the artwork depicting images which reflect the flora and fauna located on the maunga. The sense of pride and belonging this fantastic mural has created is a true testament to collaboration and a shared creative vision – it really is both inspirational and stunning! Ka pai, tamariki mā!
