Shared path opens By Megan Connolly
The sun was out on Queen’s Birthday Monday and so were the local people of Wainuiomata as they gathered to celebrate the opening of the new Te Hikoi Ararewa shared pathway that links the town to Lower Hutt. If you were driving down the hill in the morning, you could see a growing ocean wave of excited faces, with over 1100 showing up to walk the hill. The pathway has been 20 years in the making from the initial vision to the final building and has been built in a partnership between Hutt City Council, NZTA and the Government. Continued on page 2.

Locals excited about a safer walk over the hill with new shared path By Megan Connolly
Continued from page 1. Once walkers had shaken off the mornings sleep with a light walk, free activities, sausage sizzles and face painting was waiting at the Life City Church carpark to keep the party going. Mayor Ray Wallace cut the ribbon along with Dame Winnie Laban and Barney Ransfield who walked the hill for 50 years. Local fitness guru, Tania Rivers and three young female runners form Wainuiomata Harriers sped up the path before the walkers set off to the top of the hill where they were welcomed by Wainuiomata High Kapa Haka Group. While the hill has been walked by many locals for many years, it was the risk of walking so close to busy traffic on an unsafe track that turned several otherwise keen walkers off. For many locals, it was their first to time ever. With the new four-metre wide off-road sealed path for pedestrians and cyclists, and with steel barriers protecting walkers from the busy traffic, the walk showcases the beauty of Wainuiomata on the way up. “The pathway has been a long time in the making but it’s had the full support of the local community and it’s worth it. “It’s now a safe path to walk and cycle over for everyone. I have no doubt we will have tens of thousands of people using the walkway every year from now on,” Ray says. The Wainuiomata side was the last part of the full pathway to be completed.

Future generation of eco-warriors By Megan Connolly
The next generation of eco-warriors at Wainuiomata Primary School know what it means to create a waste-free and sustainable lifestyle for their own future. Teacher Jay McCarthy and parent helper Miriam Exley guide the senior pupils through their projects, both individually and within their small group, teaching them all the tools they need on how to reduce, reuse, recycle and how to beautify the school. “Whatever we do, it’ll have consequences to our environment,” passionate student, Shakayla Coote, says. As an enviro school, they set out last year to create their own recycling process but when the recycling rules changed for the area, it became impossible. “We put a lot of effort into the way the school looks at rubbish but it all fell over,” Jay says. That doesn’t mean they haven’t been busy working on and carrying out other great ideas like rubbish monitoring and expanding the school garden, the students explain. The students know that everyone has to do their bit to
inbrief news Missing local man and children found Police mounted a successful search for local man. Patrick Pickering-Hita, and his four children who had been missing from his home in Wainuiomata since about 3 pm on Friday May 31. Thankfully Police located the missing Wainuiomata man and his four children on Sunday. All are safe and well.

help reach a sustainable future and one of the ways they have been doing this is by looking at what comes into the school through their lunch boxes for Nude Food. Bringing out their best detectives, who they call Nude Ninjas, jump around to each class and assess the packaging
and give students vouchers that go into a draw. “If we keep killing the planet we’ll have no future and eventually kill our whole solar system,” student Dale Nicholas, says. The newest generation is taking a leaf from 16-year-old Swedish environmentalist,
Greta Thunberg, by educating themselves and fighting for their future. “There’s no time to waste. student Putiputi Mikaene says. “Climate change is happening and we can’t stop that. Everything we use stays on this earth forever. “There is no planet B.”
Local school rewarded for getting active St Claudine Thevenet School scooped up a prize for the highest participation rate in the Hutt City district for Movin’March which encourages kids to walk, cycle and scoot to school. Students recorded 2930 trips, winning a $100 Prezzy card for their efforts in the Greater Wellington Regional Council-run initiative. Teacher Georgia O’Grady says a key component to the success of the active month was the passport competition.

“This really hooked the students in and got everyone enthusiastic. “It is also tied in with other work we are doing at the school around Stewardship or kaitiaki and how what we do impacts the environment. “It made us have a conversation around active travel which was great. We had whole families biking to school or excited about walking home.” A spokesperson for Greater Wellington Travel, Kirsty Barr,
along with Hutt City Council’s school travel planner Sherie Wright, gave out the prizes. “The senior students wrote to Greater Wellington Movin’March organisers to thank us for organising the campaign, and to share some of their travel stories. “We went to the school’s assembly to hand both the art prize to Lily and the participation rate prize to Canon Hakaraia who is the Year 8 Sports Captain,” Kirsty says. “Being a Bikes in Schools
school St Claudine Thevenet has lots of ways for students to get active,” Kirsty says. Greater Wellington councillor Prue Lamason says the initiative was a great success in getting children active for the month of March. “This has been fantastic encouragement for children to continue sustainable travel throughout the year. It’s great to see students be rewarded for exercising while, at the same time, thinking about climate change.”
Last Friday Wainuiomata High School hosted the Regional Nga Manu Korero Competitions. It was an impressive turnout. The local school had seven of their own students competing and they did remarkably well, a spokesperson says. Congratulations to Maarire Puketapu first in Senior Maori and Keita Moses first in Junior Maori. Both of these students will be representing the region at the National Nga Manu Korero competitions in Palmerston North in Term 3.

Sustainable clothing over fast fashion
Funding coming for local ‘Technology Valley’ Funding to rejuvenate the Gracefield Innovation Quarter in Lower Hutt, the ‘Technology Valley’ of New Zealand, is being welcomed by MP Chris Bishop. Budget 2019 contains $25 million in operating funding and $50 million in capital funding to redevelop the Gracefield Innovation Quarter, where Callaghan Innovation and other great Hutt tech companies are located, at the bottom of the Wainuiomata Hill. “The Hutt is the home of some fantastic high tech companies, with Callaghan Innovation and the Gracefield Innovation Quarter at the heart of the local manufacturing and tech ecosystem. “The funding will allow for longstanding deficiencies in the site to be addressed, such as health and safety issues, earthquake-prone buildings, end-of-life asbestos, ageing infrastructure and general dilapidation,” Chris says.

Reduce, reuse and recycle has been a hot topic recently as the community and the country has become more aware that the waste they create directly impacts the environment. Denise Anglsey, from Kereru Creative and Jo Bryant from the Koha Shed have teamed up, along with Gayline Pluck and Dawn McKinley and are changing the lifespan of clothing in Wainuiomata by creating, what they call, a circular economy. Jo, Denise and Gaylene say the idea of a circular clothing economy in the community has grown naturally over the last year without specifically discussing it. The idea of a waste clothing and textile circular economy works like this. The Koha Shed is given donations of clothing from the public that can be reused and given to others or donated to projects like Dress for Success or formal wear is given to the local High School. Koha Shed sends the leftover textiles to Kereru Creative where they are upcycled into new clothing pieces or repurposed through craft workshops. But there’s no fabric left behind! Even the offcuts have

their place in the cycle. Waste textiles are turned into rags and given to mechanics or kindergartens and passed onto Little Sprouts who turn the textiles into baby clothing. “It makes you really think about clothing in a different light,” Denise says.
To some, there is a stigma around buying and wearing secondhand clothing but Denise and Jo hope that they can work on changing that perception. “The whole objective is about caring for our world and how we can do our bit,” Gaylene
says. If you’re not sure where to start, Denise says it begins with being more mindful of what we’re consuming. “Don’t buy on impulse. “When customers stop buying that’s when things will change,” Denise says.

readers have their say... Find out the WORD on the Street. Question: What do you think about the shared path, and will you use it?
Ron Parker “It’s exciting and very good for the community. When it was much unsafer, I used to walk over the hill years ago to get to work.”
Peter Fellows “It’s a good benefit for everyone, I think. We have a great community and everyone can use it. Well overdue.”
Doreen Parker “At our age we will try to use it when we can. I used to be quite frightened to walk up it before this new path.”
Debi Coote “It’s amazing, so good. I’ve walked over it for years when there was no path. I remember skidding.”
Dave Gulde “It benefits our community and the other communities that come and use it. It’s so much safer, of course I’ll be using it.”
Bernice Smit “I think it’s a brilliant. I will use it because it’s so much safer and much busier now.”
Childhood dream comes true A childhood dream has come true for one Wellingtonian who was officially signed off as Transdev’s newest train driver last week. Local resident, Justin Prout’s love of trains extends right back to his childhood when he was Thomas the Tank Engine’s number one fan. “I always had an interest in trains ever since I was a child, and I imagined myself becoming a train driver one day but I didn’t
think it would happen so soon,” Justin says. Justin started off his working life has a hairdresser before becoming a barista at New World in the Wellington train station. “I was making a coffee for an operations manager at Transdev and we started talking about my interest in trains. “She said there were passenger operator jobs available and that I should apply and that’s where it all began,” Justin says. Justin then progressed to the role of train
manager before applying for a job as a Locomotive Engineer (train driver) after passing psychometric and psychomotor testing. Once Justin was accepted, he began his training in July last year. The train enthusiast completed the programme along with three other trainees which he says provided a fantastic support system. Justin says one of the best parts of the job
is the team he gets to work with. “It’s like a big family here, everyone is so helpful and supportive. The whole experience has been awesome from start to finish. That includes all my tutors, trainers and managers, now I’m just going to give it my all and do the best job I can.” Transdev is now recruiting for their 2020 train schools.

National Volunteer Week 2019 runs from 16-22 June and celebrates the collective contribution of the 1.2 million volunteers across New Zealand. This year’s theme is ‘Whiria te tangata – weaving the people together’, recognising that volunteering/mahi aroha and social action weave people and communities together. “Enliven volunteers make such a powerful difference every single day. They give much more than just time,” says General Manager External Relations Alisha Kennedy. “Volunteers become friends and supporters; they bring diversity, spontaneity and excitement to our rest homes”. “It’s often because of volunteer support that elders are able to keep up with their hobbies and interests, or continue to attend community meetings or clubs” says Alisha.

a resident,” explains says Alisha. “Volunteers help to bring an extra sparkle to the lives of the residents. We can not thank them enough.” Enliven, part of the not-for-profit organisation Presbyterian Support Central, operates Woburn Home in Lower Hutt.

A place for “creatively gifted problem solvers” By Megan Connolly
Rangatahi Learning Centre is tucked away in Parkway and managed by the high school, a place for what manager Jo-Anne Maunder calls “creatively gifted problem solvers”. Jo is the newest addition to the team, coming on as the manager of the Centre earlier this year and her enthusiasm is infectious. “These kids have skills that other kids don’t have until they are adults. “It is about trying to turn things that are seen as a negative into a positive,” Jo says. The Rangatahi Learning Centre is the last port of call for many teenagers who have found that the mainstream learning environment and structure of a traditional high school does not work for them. Sixteen students attend the local centre and are guided along the way to reach success within themselves and in their education. But Jo says its more than just traditional education.
“It’s about trying to spread kindness and changing the perception of self. “They push the box and that’s what’s going to change the world.” Recently the centre received a grant from Fitzroy Tavern which enabled Jo to take their students to Naenae Boxing Academy. Jo has worked in alternative education now for 20 years and fell into it rather by accident, training originally as an Early Learning teacher. It’s not just what the students learn from their time, she says she learns just as much from them like resilience and creative problem-solving. Motivated by her passion to help youngsters, Jo hopes she can help them realise their value and help everyone else in the community to see it too. “In an ideal world we wouldn’t have Alternate Education but there will always be people that need help and that push the box.”

Trainee dentists, Aaron and Sean, come to town By Megan Connolly
Two visiting dentists in training, Aaron Chew and Sean Phillips, have been calling Wainuiomata home for the last four weeks during their resident training. Working at the Whai Oranga o Te Iwi Health Centre, the pair are staying with a local host family. Even though they are only six months shy of graduating from dentistry they have the same skills and can do everything a fully registered dentist can do. “I love our host family here in Dentists in training, Sean Phillips and Aaron Chew, have been working in town for the last four weeks. PHOTO: Megan Connolly town, we enjoy the Maori hospitali-
ty,” Aaron says. Aaron is originally from Malaysia, found his way to dentistry conventionally. However, Sean found his way into dentistry in a more peculiar way: working as a labourer building a dentist’s house. From there he learnt more about the profession, went on to do some work experience and found his passion. For both Aaron and Sean, who study and live in Dunedin, this is their first time living and working in the Wellington region. “The town has a very pleasant feeling,” Aaron says.
What keeps them inspired after five years of study is seeing first hand the positive impact the profession can have. “The really nice thing is relieving people of pain. Dental infections can be very serious,” Aaron says. “Sometimes someone can be very unhappy with their appearance and it’s really nice to be able to do some beautiful restoration and give someone back their smile,” Sean adds. The pair have been exploring the community on the weekend, saying they enjoy the view from the top of the hill and getting to experience the city.

Dry Eyes in Winter During winter a lot of people get dry eyes. This can be due to the effects of being inside for long periods in heated rooms, or outside in cold windy conditions. Also, those of us who spend a lot of time in front of computer screens without a break often complain of this condition. Another less common reason for having dry eyes is if you’re taking certain medicines – for example, some antidepressants or blood pressure medications. Not enough tears Tears are made up of three separate secretions: a sticky base layer, a watery mid layer and an oily top layer (which slows tear evaporation). Dry eye is a sore, gritty sensation caused by too little tear production or poor-quality tears forming an inadequate film. Normally, tears form a protective film over the surface of the eye, lubricating movement and washing away debris and any toxins. Dry eye can be painful and cause sensitivity to bright light or the open air and wind.
Dry eye symptoms Symptoms of dry eye could be one or more of the following: itchy, sore, gritty, red, blurry, sensitive to light, or even more watery than normal. Remedies for dry eyes There are things you can do to help. These include: • keep your eyes clean; • take breaks to rest your eyes when using a computer screen; • use a humidifier to stop the air getting dry; • get plenty of sleep to rest your eyes; • give your eyes a break from wearing contact lenses; • and of course, smoking doesn’t help. The pharmacists at Clive’s Chemist can help with recommending products to help clean and protect your eyes, and give you the right advice on which drops, gels or ointments are the right ones for you. We will also refer you if we think the condition is more serious.

Samoan Language Week at Parkway By Megan Connolly
Parkway Kindergarten immersed itself in all things Samoan on Thursday afternoon for their main event in Samoan Language Week. All week pupils have been learning about the Samoan language but with the help of teacher Neta Samani, the youngsters have been incorporating learning phrases for some time now.
“I say phrases to the kids every day like ‘I’m at home’ so they know things like how to count and what ‘Eat your sandwich’ mean,” Neta says. Around 30 per cent of Pasifika and Maori are on the Parkway Kindergarten so the Samoan culture is a huge part of the play area roll. Students from the Rangatahi Learning Centre, which is situated behind the kindergarten, even popped over to help out with the celebrations.

Twilight Basketball has been running on Friday nights from 9.30pm at the Wainuiomata High School gym since the beginning of the year and has proved to be a huge hit. Twilight provides the space for positive regular social connection, an organiser, Andy Aldridge, says. “People often say how great it is that we are providing something for those wandering the streets late at night with nothing to do. This is for them but it is also for those young people who don’t often venture out away from the screens, whose connection with others is through gaming and social media.” Even though the nights are getting darker and colder quicker, that does not mean they’re slowing down any time soon. The winter season means no change to how Twilight operates. Andy and the team are still committed through our volunteers to opening up space
late on Friday evenings for the rangatahi of Wainuiomata to come to. A space for them that we work to ensure is safe, enabling them to positively interact and spend time with others, knowing they are well looked after and cared for. “Those who attend always express gratitude that an event like this is put on for them. “Our hope with Twilight is that the rangatahi of Wainuiomata know through these simple things of opening indoor sports courts, handing out free kai, having people interacting with them and wanting to get to know them shows them how much they mean to our community. “I am extremely grateful to Janette Melrose and the High School, for allowing us to use their gym space and for positively being behind Twilight and all we do.” Connect with Andy or Josh from the oversight team. You can find them or Twilight on Facebook, alternatively, you can email a.aldridge@lifeimpactcentre. org.nz.
Twilight Basketball will still be running during winter from 9.30pm on Friday nights in Wainuiomata High School gym. It is a place for the local youth to have fun together at the end of the week. PHOTO: Supplied

Community Board chairperson, Gabriel Tupou, was out and about with the 1st Wainuiomata Parish Scouts recently, talking to them about being prepared for an emergency and the importance of community resilience. The scouts were also receiving their Civil Defence badges that evening. For the youngsters to get their badges, they have to explain how the Civil
Defence organisation works and the purpose for which it exists, draw a map of Civil Defence Sector Posts and list local contacts, to name a few. “This is a very important kaupapa, now more than ever. “It is fantastic that the scouts are acquiring skills that will come in to use during emergency or survival situations,” Gabriel says. Local Karen McNatty also received her leadership badgethat evening.

Stokes the class every country wants England are the clear favourites to win the cricket World Cup and one of the main reasons is Ben Stokes. The talented Kiwi-born Englishman had a hand in every aspect of his team’s opening match win on home soil against South Africa last week. Stokes is a world-class allrounder and no other team has
any players as consistent as he is. The 27-year-old underlined his credential with a bullying 89 with the bat, two wickets with the ball and a stellar catch to remove Andile Phehlukwayo. No team has such a threepronged weapon at their disposal. Stokes is clearly the world’s premier allround cricketer.
What his country of birth would give for his services. No offence to Jimmy Neesham who is playing the role for the Black Caps but he doesn’t have the prior consistent success of Stokes. Despite his off-field distractions, Stokes is primed to write his name into English folklore if the English can forget their
nation’s regular desire to choke on the world stage, and can lift the trophy in their backyard. For their part, New Zealand started their tournament dismantling a terrible Sri Lankan team. Matt Henry showed why he excels in English conditions and with swing bowlers like Trent Boult and Tim Southee, there’s
realistically an outside chance that New Zealand could be the forgotten dark horse in the competition. Still, the tournament is England’s to lose, they’re the most well-rounded side on paper and if Stokes continues to be their x-factor, they could be unstoppable when the players around him also find form.
Local goalie, Kearis, to kick off in Sweden By Megan Connolly
Local resident, Kearis Houlihan, will be jet setting across the world to Sweden in July to play at the Gothia Cup Tournament for the Wellington United Diamonds Under 16s team. Not only is this a big deal for the young goalkeeper and her football career, but this will also be her first time travelling out of the country. The tournament is going to be unlike anything Kearis has played in, she says, with around 50 000 people attending the
opening ceremony alone. “I’m pretty nervous and excited. “It’s going to be one of the biggest adventures of my life.” Kearis has been playing football since the young age of four. Even though she started on the field, it did not take her long to follow in her father’s footsteps and realise that the goalie’s box was her sweet spot. “I would probably die if I played another position,” Kearis jokes. Being a semi-professional footballer means Kearis and her
A big weekend for local rugby The Wainuiomata Premier Rugby team started their second round of the Jubilee Cup Campaign on Saturday against Oriental Rongotai at the Polo Ground. In wet and windy conditions Wainui opened the scoring in the 15th minute to hard-working openside flanker Sam Smith from a set of pick and goes, which was converted by Josh Robertson-Weepu to give the Green and Blacks 7 -0 lead. Oriental Rongotai Rugby Football Club (Ories) came back with two slick backline moves to take a 7-12 lead heading into halftime. After halftime and with the weather deteriorating, Ories put the pressure on Wainui and were camped inside the Wainui 22 for 15 minutes. Wave after wave, Ories threw everything they had, but Wainui’s defence held strong and from the next scrum, Wainui’s forwards made a huge play getting a tight head from the scrum led by young prop Tanera Haenga resulting in a penalty that would get Wainui out of their own half. This seemed to ignite the Wainui forwards and they started to dominate the Ories forwards. A big carry from barnstorming Number 8 Teru Time soon saw Wainui back inside the Ories 22. Five phases later, Number 8 Time busted through the Ories defence again and scored next to the post which Robertson-Weepu
would convert to give Wainui a 14-12. However from the kickoff, Wainui made a number of comical errors and failed to exit their half. Ories again “threw the kitchen sink” at Wainui, but credit to their resolute defence, Wainui held them out. With time ticking away Wainui was awarded a penalty on halfway. Robertson-Weepu put a long kick into the Ories 22m and Wainui’s forwards again went to work. This time first five Toshiki Hamagishi was able to exploit a mismatch down the blind side and crashed over for the winning try. “Wainui’s forwards were exceptional in this game, led by outstanding Captain Greg Lealofi and strong performances from Kade Tiatia, Haenga and Time,” a spokesperson says. In the backline, Robertson-Weepu had a strong game and his long kicking game was invaluable in testing conditions. This week Wainui faces last year’s Jubilee Cup runner ups, Norths at William Jones with kick off at 2.45pm. Results: Wainui 21 – Ories 12 Tries Sam Smith Teru Time Toshiki Hamagishi Robertson- Weepu 3/3 Conversions
mum Kristeena are always at training or games. Over four nights of training per week, plus training for the school’s team and playing games, means Kearis spends over 13 hours a week working towards her goal. Kearis’ mum will be heading over with her and is equally excited to see her do well. “It’s going to be a whole new experience for her,” Kristeena says. If you’d like to sponsor Kearis or help her out, contact Kristeena on 0272173538.

Junior Rugby team steps up for final A small team of local youngsters headed to the Christian Cullen Paremata/ Plimmerton 7s Tournament at the weekend which tested all of their skills. The tournament was originally scheduled for the Sunday but due to weather, it was moved it to Monday which turned out to be a great decision, says the team spokesperson, Chontel Foley. “The weather really turned it on for us today big time! The conditions were perfect,” Chontel says. The youngsters played four pool
games, a semi-final in which they bet Paremata/ Plimmerton 6-5, and the final. It was a big achievement to make it to the final and they faced Paraparaumu. Fortunately, the youngsters had previously played them in one of their pool matches and had beaten them 6-3. However, they really did step their game up in the final. “The talent shown from the kids of that team was amazing. “As much as we hate to blame the ref in a situation like this,

unfortunately, Wainui were dealt some very harsh cards. “Resulting in two turnovers going against them in the first half which proved hard to come back from.” However, despite all odds going against the team of youngsters, they stepped up to the plate and finished that game with so much heart, integrity and pride. “To say Jason and I are so proud of them would be a massive understatement. Every one of our kids worked incredibly hard and truly earnt that spot in the final.”
