Lest we forget

By Megan Connolly

At 90 years old, local man Ken Salmon has many memories of war and the army.

Some of the memories are from Ken’s own time serving for the British Army as a mechanical engineer for 31 years, others are of his father and Ken’s four uncles who served on the frontlines of Gallipoli.

Even though the past can be hard to talk about, it’s important to continue to commemorate the sacrifice the Anzacs and all those who gave their lives to war, according to Ken. “The memory needs to be kept going, not to glorify war, but to let younger people understand what the troops were doing.

Continued from page 1.

Ken joined the British Army in 1944 as a 14-year-old vehicle mechanic apprentice which was the beginning of his time of service.

This was a big jump from a boy who grew up on a farm in the Isle of Wight and had never driven a car before.

When he turned 18, Ken signed on to serve eight years with colours and four years on the reserve, which was all he thought he would do.

Little did he know he would go on to be a teacher at Manchester University, see the British Army take him to Kenya for two years and the Middle East, continue his studies, and meet his wife in the process.

Ken narrowly missed being stationed in Japan.

Instead went on to study engineering further.

But by 1957, Ken was ready to move on.

Eventually, after some years abroad and two children, Ken and his then small family found themselves in New Zealand in 1972 after seeing an ad for a

tradesman in the New Zealand Army. They moved to Wainuiomata in 1974.

Last year’s Anzac Day commemorated 100 years since World War One but the memory of those who served should continue to be honoured and talked about, Ken says.

“I think younger people have to be aware that people in these uniforms have carried out a mass of different functions,” Ken says.

Ken’s father served and said very little about the experience but Ken has many memories as a teenager of troops returning to his home town.

“It’s good to be able to talk to children about it and realise how it differs from now.

“War or conflict has changed from major conflict to many lesser ones,” Ken says.

“Nowadays, it’s so varied.

Years ago it was that you dug a trench; they are your enemy, they are your friends,” Ken says.

Ken will be wearing four of his own medals, and five of his father’s, on Anzac Day.

Mental Health 101

By Megan Connolly

Did you know the number of people accessing mental health and addiction services has grown 73 per cent over the past 10 years?

One in five young New Zealanders will be affected by depression by the age of 18.

Mental Health 101 is a first aid course for mental health and has come to Wanuiomata run by Blueprint with funding from the District Health Board.

For Ginny Andersen, who secured the funding from the DHB for the programme, the

reason it began is very personal and close to her heart.

“In my own family I’ve seen how hard it is when people need help and can’t access it quick enough.” Ginny says.

Ginny held a public meeting about mental health in the Hutt in 2017 with over 100 people coming along.

“People really wanted more knowledge and information to help those people around them,” Ginny says.

Understanding and dealing with mental health in the workplace and among family and friends can be hard especially

anyone who wants it.

Ginny likens individuals who go through the programme to be similar to lifeguards; keeping an eye on the community ready to help at any time.

“It raises the resilience of our community.

“If the average person knows more about mental health in The Hutt, it can only be a good thing,” Ginny says.

There are still spaces left in the upcoming workshop on 8 May.  Contact Keri Brown on KeriAnne.Brown@parliament. govt.nz or 04 564 4988.

without the correct tools to deal with them, according to Ginny.

“It’s about removing stigma and knowing how to help.

“Especially in the work place because so often it can be looked upon as a weakness and not given support early on.”

Ginny says.

The course began in Lower Hutt in 2017.

“It’s about helping make those choices with the right support.”

“I did the course, and got so much from it – it was really helpful at an every-day practical level,” Ginny says.

Gavin carves artworks into century-old wood

By Megan Connolly

Local carving artist Gavin Reedy is a born and bred Wainuiomata man, His parents moved to Wainui in the 1950s, migrating away from the city for somewhere more family orientated as part of the ‘urban drift’.

Over the years, Gavin has had many different jobs and experiences like working in shearing sheds and gaining his Diploma in Teaching and a Bachelor in Education.

But carving is a passion he tries to squeeze into the spare moments he has.

His carving began as one of many young men that were taught to carve by Te Whetu Marama Kereama (Uncle Kelly) in the Feilding area in the mid-80s.

“My work talks of Te Timatanga o te Ao – The Beginning of time – the Maori world view, of gods of mana and pride.

“It speaks of our ancestor’s bravery and their staunchness in the face of danger, battle, change and the future,” Gavin says.

His carvings, although traditional, flow directly from Gavin’s own vision and takes inspiration from many things.

“My work is raw, organic, flowing and alive.

“I let my chisel lead the way, but I do follow the customs I was taught and I’m quite strict on the etiquettes of the workspace and adhere to all our cultural practises like karakia/prayer when starting and finishing work,” Gavin says.

Gavin’s partner, Donna Wi Repa, works with him on the carvings too.

Donna has a keen eye for the finishing details and design, according to Gavin.

Gavin sources all of his wood from the shoreline of Te Whanganui-a-Tara.

He’s even been known to have carved many of his pieces on the beaches of the central harbour or

on the wild South Coast where the wood has been washed up.

“Some people see firewood lying there on the beach – I see taonga, art waiting to come to life.

“Beautiful pieces of wood I use for my art were once trees in the sacred forest of Tane Mahuta, they would have stood for hundreds of years before falling and making their way to the sea many many generations ago.

“Who knows how old some of these pieces are? They have their own mauri – life force and wairua – spirit, and you can sense that when you are surrounded by them,” Gavin says.

Koha Shed donates formal dresses

By Megan Connolly

Buying dresses for special occasions can be very expensive, especially if you’re only going to wear it once. But then what do you do with it?

That’s why a head student at Wainuiomata High School, Eva Bryant, and The Koha Shed have combined these two ideas and come up with a way to bring beautiful formal dresses to young women at the High School who need them for their senior formal on June 1.

“It’s just amazing that the Koha Shed and the high school can be a part of this special night,” Eva says.

All of the formal dresses donated to the Koha Shed are taken to a room in the High School run by Tumuaki PA, Hayley Lawrence, and put beautifully on a rack.

“If a girl wants a dress then she can come in individually and look at the dresses and talk with Hayley,” Eva says.

They try to keep it very personal and private because they do not want any bullying or stigma around going to get a second-hand dress.

“Hayley says she feels like a ‘Formal Godmother’. It brings her so much joy to help these girls, it’s so beautiful,” Eva says.

Each day new dresses are donated and added to the collection and any of the dresses not used this year will either be kept for next year or returned to the Koha Shed for another lucky lady.

“It means so much to me to give back because the school has nurtured me through so much,” Eva says.

It’s not just for girls either; ties and suits have been donated for the boys too.

“How many schools can say that they have the support from the community like ours does?

“I’m so happy to do my part in giving back. It’s a beautiful feeling,” Eva says.

The Koha Shed has been running in Wainuiomata for over four years, with two of those years on the old Wainuiomata College grounds, and gives away donated goods to the community for free.

The Koha Shed is completely run by volunteers so if you would like to help out, pop into the Shed and say hello.

Baking was a piece of cake BELOW: Dishita Shankar, Victoria Lyuich, Daksha Shankar and Tipene Wheoki get seriously into truffle making.

Wellington region cyclists are being encouraged to be ‘stars who stand out at night’ following the recent Aotearoa Bike Challenge.

The workplace challenge, run by Greater Wellington Regional Council in partnership with NZTA and Wellington City Council, had a focus on encouraging employees to cycle throughout February.

This year 353 organisations took part, involving a total of 3846 participants.

Wainui’s recycling future Community Board members Keri Brown and Josh Briggs will be holding a public meeting next Tuesday, April 30 from 7pm at the library in Wainui to talk about the future of waste in Wainuiomata.

The meeting is open to all and is a place for the public to share opinions, share their concerns and put together a plan going forward.

You could tell by the mess and the sticky faces that it was a morning of baking well done by the youngsters on Saturday.

Local cook and Community Hub member, Carlo Patea, and the children took over the Tihei Rangatahi kitchen for the morning to make chocolate truffles.

The cooking did require some muscle from the youngsters who enjoyed crushing and crumbling Oreo biscuits to be the crunch and texture in the balls.

Once they’d crushed and stirred, the youngsters had to wait an hour for the truffles to set in the fridge before they could coat them in chocolate and set them again.

It was the perfect homemade Easter treat.

The youngsters say the best part was eating what they made.

“We try to keep the recipes as simple as possible,” Carlo says.

The cooking sessions run by Carlo are part of the Community Hub holiday programme but the success of cooking like on Saturday morning means there will be more on the horizon.

“Starting next term we hope to look at running a cooking class every week,” Carlo says.

Cooking and baking can be a fun activity to do with children and shows that doing things for yourself is not hard, according to Carlo.

“It’s a handy skill and a good life skill to have,” Carlo says.

Keep an eye out for more cooking classes coming up next term.

however, at the end of the campaign, Gallipoli was still held by its Turkish defenders. Among those who lost their lives in the Gallipoli campaign were 2779 New Zealanders, almost one in four of those who served on Gallipoli. As always, ceremonies are held at war memorials up and down New Zealand and in places overseas where New Zealanders gather to pay tribute.

This quote made by Ataturk, a great Turkish statesman in 1934, is inscribed on the memorial at Anzac Cove, Gallipoli.

Children create colourful bracelets

By Megan Connolly

It was a flurry of creativity by some youngsters at the Community Hub on Wednesday afternoon for a ‘create your own bracelet’ activity.

All the paints were out and the hot glue gun was at the ready for when the big inspiration would strike…which could have been any moment, so they had to be ready.

Youngsters had an hour to paint, write and stick on a gently pre-bent ice cream stick with holes punched at either end for

fastening purposes.

There were gem jewels, buttons, and inspirational quotes like ‘you’re awesome’ and ‘be cool’ written in sharpie so they could wear them around with pride.

Some were so swift they made three or four pieces of bracelet bling in that time.

Eventually, there was no bracelet accessory too extreme for young artists and fashionistas!

There was no limit (or hot glue) to what they could do.

Keep an eye out for their homemade bling.

readers have their say... Find out the WORD on the Street.

Question: Why is it important to continue to remember Anzac Day?

Alexia Herrera, Wainuiomata “It’s about honouring the sacrifices of the men and women who have served defending our country and our way of life.”

Blair Kuchy, Wainuiomata “They risked their lives for us while we sit back and have our freedom because of them.”

Eihiaia Whakaneke, Wainuiomata “If it wasn’t for them we would probably all be dead by now. I’d do anything for the veterans.”

Helen Luga, Wainuiomata “It’s especially important for our future generation of children and it’s important to acknowledge the difference our soldiers made.”

Malcolm Wayman, Wainuiomata “I’m an ex-soldier and served in Northern Ireland in the 70s. I think it’s very important for everyone to remember the sacrifice for, basically, our freedom.”

Vera Pazan, Wainuiomata “I think it’s always important to remember our history and what happened in our past.”

Students have a whale of time painting

By Megan Connolly

Tihei Rangatahi youngsters have been working on a large scale whale mural on Hair Street and Moores Valley Road for two weeks.

The weather has made it difficult to fully finish the mural but it won’t be long until it’s done,

according to organiser and community artist Tina Rae Carter.

“It’s about getting the community involved,” Tina says.

Tina created the outline but the youngsters were able to paint to their heart’s content.

“I wanted to brighten up the end of the street and get some good vibes going,” Tina says.

The inspiration behind the mural are the pilot whales in our oceans, according to Tina.

“It’s quite personal to me. I remember when 600 of them were beached several years ago and 400 of them died.

“It’s paying homage to the whales,” Tina says.

Earlier this year, Tina and

around 50 youngsters from Tihei Rangatahi painted a snail at the same corner which has a similar message behind it; that people need to know how to take care of their back yards.

Tina moved to Wainuiomata two years ago with her family and has been using her art as a way to connect with the local

community.

“I wanted to add my flavour to what I see and fit it into the environment,” Tina says.

The paint for the mural was kindly donated and sponsored

by Resene Paint, the Hutt council and a local businessman.

Keep an eye out for the finished product!

Sports talk

SPORT

with Jacob Page

Tiger back on the prowl This Tiger effect is quite something.

While the sporting world and every golfing hack globally basked in the redemption story of Tiger Woods’ Masters victory, the reality is Tiger overcame his own downfall.

His dramatic win at Augusta, his fifth and first in 14 years completed the comeback that would barely be believable as a Hollywood script.

The red shirt, the Nike cap and

that determined stride up the 18th was unmissable television.

However, the cynic in me wanted to examine why Tiger needed a comeback story in the first place.

His fall from grace was not a thing of fate but of poor life choices.

His DUI issues, his infidelity, his womanising all come down to poor choices.

Tiger may be loved by the fans, but in his heyday, the now 43-yearold was not engaging to his fan

base and largely acted like the aloof champion he was.

This 2019 Tiger seems like a more relaxed version of the young golfer who had all the talent in the world but also looked like he carried the globe on his shoulders at the same time.

The world loves a redemption story, and a Tiger Woods redemption story, even if a lot of it was largely self-inflicted, it seems the world just does not care.

One part of the story, that can’t

be blamed on poor choices by Tiger is his bad back.

Multiple back surgeries should have prevented the scenes at Augusta.

For his 9.0am tee time, Tiger reportedly started doing his back stretches six hours prior.

Such a regimen would suggest Tiger won’t be playing high level golf in five years time but that drive to succeed, often found in champions, is clearly still in the belly of the former world No 1.

What’s next for Tiger will be the most fascinating part of the story.

He should contend for more majors this year but going forward, his best chance will always be to add to his five green jackets at Augusta.

His return to form story is complete, though.

If he never wins another major again, that’ll be fine.

Scenes of a fortnight ago will be a final memory remembered with fondness.

The Wainuiomata Rugby Football Club was vying for the Hakaraia Trophy against Poneke Rugby Club on their home turf last Saturday.

However, it wasn’t Wainui’s day.

Poneke beat Wainui 21/19 for the trophy.

The Hakaraia Trophy game is an interclub competition played annually between Poneke and Wainui-

omata to celebrate the Hakaraia family who has been involved in the clubs for several generations.

“It is quite important to the club to have these trophies,” team leader Dan Smith says.

Currently, the team is working towards the Jubilee Cup and are currently halfway through their season to see if they will qualify.

With five games left to up their ante, Wainui is sitting in fifth place

on the leader board, right in the middle.

The junior rugby teams will be kicking off their season on May 4 and will be continuing through until August.

do it with friends, have a chat while you’re doing it. And all the while supporting research into orthopaedic surgery.”

She says before she had her first hip replacement she could hardly walk down the road because the cartilage had been so ground down.

“Orthopaedic surgery can make such a difference. We’re not talking three months extended

life here, we’re talking another 10–15 years where you can live an independent, active life; be part of the community.

“If orthopaedic research leads to people getting surgery that is quicker, more efficient and less costly, then that can only be good.”

Walk for Wishbone this weekend People who have had hip or knee replacements, other orthopaedic surgery, or just fancy meeting new people and getting a bit of exercise are encouraged to attend Wellington’s Walk for Wishbone.

Walk for Wishbone is the Wishbone Orthopaedic Research Foundation of New Zealand’s major fundraiser, to be held on Sunday April 28.

Participants can choose to walk

for 1km on the flat around the velodrome at Hataitai Park, or for 5 kms on Mt Victoria’s tracks, with stunning views over the outer harbour and the western hills.

Funds raised go towards research into improving surgery and treatment for joint replacements reducing pain, broken bones, bone infections and cancers, congenital disorders and sports injuries.

Super-active Jill from Newtown has had enough orthopaedic surgeries to last several lifetimes, including two hip replacements and two knee replacements.

She’ll be at the Wellington walk and encourages people of all ages and levels of fitness to come along and have a go.

“Get active – that’s what your body is designed to be. Walking is a really nice activity, you can
