Jacinda comes to town By Megan Connolly

The Prime Minister of New Zealand, Jacinda Ardern, was given a warm welcome by the tamariki of Te Atiawa Nui Tonu Kohanga Reo last Thursday during her visit to Wainuiomata in the form of a spontaneous group hug. Jacinda was visiting the Te Atiawa Nui Tonu Kohanga Reo to check on the new housing development’s progress that has begun next door to the learning centre which will bring 83 new homes to Wainuiomata. Her motivation was simply put by Jacinda herself: to learn more about the Te Puna Wai housing project. Continued on page 2. A special moment for the the youngsters at Te Atiawa Nui Tonu Kōhanga Reo who got close and personal with Prime Minister, Jacinda Ardern, during her visit to Wainuiomata last Thursday.

Lots of aroha for Jacinda Continued from page 1. “In this job, I do more talking than listening. This is an opportunity to listen. “I’ve always been someone who loves ideas, listening to ideas, and the people who have a passion for it,” Prime Minister of New Zealand, Jacinda Ardern, says. Jacinda spoke with local leaders and core members of the local Iwi, listening to how the project is taking shape and to share their vision with her. The housing development is part of Labour’s Kiwibuild promise to build 400 homes. The land on Moohan Street in front of Te Atiawa Nui Tonu Kohanga Reo is one of those sites. Around 83 houses are to be built in stage one and are set to be finished late in the year. “We’ve partnered with local Iwi to bring affordable housing to local communities,” Jacinda says. In the past, Jacinda has said that she enjoys coming to Wainuiomata and this visit was no different. When asked about her favourite part, she said: “I love seeing what is being achieved by the community. “When you look at the housing project I visited, that’s completely focused on providing housing for local

Iwi and those who have a connection already to the land.” Jacinda says. Iwi and council member Kara Puketapu-Dentice says it was a great opportunity to share their vision with her.

“It was a highlight for our Prime Minister to see what our Iwi is doing in our housing initiative and the different housing opportunities in Wainuiomata in the future,” Kara says.

Jacinda Ardern is not the first New Zealand Prime Minister to visit Te Atiawa Nui Tonu Kohanga Reo. John Key visited the Iwi around a decade ago.

Donate a daffodil bulb 6,708 copies weekly

Wainuiomata News

The largest circulating newspaper in Wainuiomata YOUR LOCAL NEWSPAPER

The Wainuiomata Pioneer Church is planning a mass planting of daffodils in the grounds surrounding the beautiful old Coast Road Church and is asking all the wonderful gardeners in Wainuiomata if they can donate a couple of bulbs when they divide them for replanting this year.

Over the past six years, the committee has worked very hard to restore this historic building, so that it is now in regular use for weddings and funerals plus concerts and other things. The main gardens are tended by members of the local Garden Club, and descendants and

other volunteers take care of the graves. Replacement paths have made a huge improvement to the grounds as has the planting of hydrangea, rose and other cuttings. To continue the floral display, the committee hopes that a mass planting of daffodils will provide

a welcome herald of Spring, and encourage visitors and passersby to stop and admire as well as wander in the churchyard. With this in mind, a daffodil bulb donation box is at Clive’s Chemist in Queen Street or ring 5648135 and a member of the committee will pick them up from you.

Tania walks to inspire By Megan Connolly

You may know her as the ‘lady who walks the hill’ or as the person who walked over the Wainuiomata hill and back 500 times last year but Tania Rivers is so much more than that. After losing 75kg 10 years ago, going through family violence and then moving to Wainuiomata three years ago with her two daughters, Tania challenged herself to walk the hill every day. “When we go through trauma you have lots of directions you could go in. I found it was really helpful staying moving, being active and getting outdoors,” Tania says. “One thing that drives me is that everything is online and the world is starting to lack face to face communication with each other. Walking is one thing people young and old can get out and do,” Tania says. As of this week, Tania has walked the hill over 1000 times and she has no intention to stop. “It’s the one thing I can give to me every day. It gets me out of bed in the morning,” Tania says. At the beginning of this year, Tania had a 24 hour walking day

to raise money for the surgery that will remove the excess skin from her weight loss. Over 174 members of the community showed up to help her achieve her goal, many people she’s never met before. “It blows my mind how so many people are interested. “There are people I’ve met over the last year walking that I still keep in touch with.” A huge motivator for Tania is that she loves meeting new people, loves hearing people’s stories and can ‘talk like there’s no tomorrow.’ “Some people aren’t motivated to do it by themselves. “I want to show people it’s not as hard to do it when you have someone to talk rubbish with while you do it,” Tania says. Every two weeks Tania holds micro walks on Saturday nights at 7pm where anyone is welcome to join and walk the hill with her and help her fundraise toward her goal. The next one will be on April 20. Meet in the carpark of the Church at the bottom of the hill. If you would like to help Tania out, or you just need a walking buddy, you can get in touch with Tania on 0225867479.

Vikings hunt in the library By Megan Connolly

It was a Viking Quest at the library on Monday. PHOTO: Megan Connolly

Argh! Youngsters were embracing their most ferocious Viking faces on Monday at the Community hub for a Viking Quest. The activity had youngsters create their best and sturdiest Viking shields to protect them during the quest as they hunted down clues hidden amongst the books and shelves of the library. Aimed at six to twelveyear-olds, the hunt kept them

Fun Vi k ing fact: T he Vikings were famous for sailing huge distances from their home in Scandinavia between AD 800 and 1066 to raid and plunder, but they also traded with people from other countries. The name ‘Viking’ means ‘a pirate raid’ in the Old Norse language.

Wetland enhancement for Waiu Park By Megan Connolly

There has been a big clean up at Waiu Park by keen wetland enhancers Gary James and John Groombridge. The pair, along with Lower Hutt Forest and Bird Branch members have been working to enhance the wetlands by removing weeds, planting new trees, and adding traps to catch pests and predators around the much loved Waiu Park. The project beganin 2010 with Russell Bell who wanted to add more wetlands and native vegetation to the area. Now Gary and John get out into the park most days of the week to check on their traps and work on cleaning up the main weed problem which is blackberry bushes. “We clear out the area and plant new trees and then let nature do its thing,” Gary says. Wainuiomata is built on a pre-existing wetland which was cleared and drained over 100 years ago. At Waiu Park, the wetlands there were made seven years ago to continue to boost the native wildlife among other things, according to Gary and

John. “Wetlands trap sediment, absorb farmland nutrients and remove pollutants from road runoff. “They’re nature’s kidneys,” Gary says. Wetlands provide habitat and food for native birds, insects and fish. Gary and John, with several

volunteers, planted over 1500 trees in 2018 throughout the area being restored. The group has placed 80 traps over the 70 hectares of the wetland catchment which are set to trap the main predator culprits like stoats, rats, mice and possums. There have also been signs of deer poo scrapings on the trees

which kills the trees, according to Gary.  If you would like to give Gary and John a hand, whether it is checking traps or planting trees, contact Gary on 0212866282 or come along to the next tree planting day on June 1 at 9.30am.

Easter road safety tips The New Zealand Police want everyone to arrive safely at their destination these Easter holidays. This year Easter Monday, Anzac Day and school holidays all fall in the same week, which means it’s likely to be extra busy on our roads, NZ Transport Agency acting director safety and environment, Niclas Johansson, says. At any time on our roads,

following these simple rules can be the difference between a safe trip or a tragic outcome: • drive at a safe speed – depending on weather and other conditions. • always wear a seatbelt • don’t drive when tired and avoid alcohol • focus on the task of driving – Distractions can be deadly, so put your phone away and keep your focus on the road.

“Congestion and delays are inevitable during holiday periods, so we also want to remind everyone to leave plenty of time for their journey, drive to the conditions and plan ahead before leaving home,’’ the New Zealand Police say. Young drivers were injured in almost a third of motor vehicle accidents last Easter, so this group needs to be extra vigilant. Their advice is to be aware

Teens involved with the Licence to Work programme created a table tennis table last week as part of a shared YOUth Inspire and Love Wainuiomata project. The table went out at the end of last week and has since been getting a lot of love during the “Table Tennis & Kai” last Friday on Queen St and during the school holidays. It was also used again as part of the Easter Scavenger Hunt last Saturday. The table, paddles and ping-pong balls, can be found outside the Wainuiomata Community Hub currently and have been a huge hit with everyone from children to teenagers, Esther King from Love Wainuiomata says. “We love working with organisations like YOUth Inspire who are supporting local rangatahi.

“It’s been a fantastic shared project with them, including Bunnings Petone who donated the materials. “Each of these amazing young locals on YOUth Inspire’s Licence to Work programme shared their talents to create this community table tennis table,” Esther says. The licence to work programme, run by youth pathways coordinator Shannon Seiuli, is designed to respond to business and industry concerns that young people may not be developing the employability skills, also called ‘soft skills’, needed to succeed in the workplace. The ping-pong table is another way to work on school holiday projects with local teens. “So keep an eye out for where it will pop up next and have a go! It’s already getting heaps of use and bringing the home feeling to Queen St,” Esther says.

Aayla Toman, Wainuiomata “I like the community sports because I get to socialise with everyone and get to be competitive.”

Nic Andersen, Wainuiomata “The community and the neighbours we have. When the earthquakes happened we all sat together and kept each other company because we couldn’t sleep.”

Sarah Andersen, Wainuiomata “For me, it’s the community spirit. We moved here from Maungaraki three years ago so we’re used to the camaraderie.”

Siobhan Sa’u, Wainuiomata “I like the mountains because it’s quiet up there and when you step up to the top you can see the whole thing.”

Talia Atlas, Wainuiomata “That it’s always quiet, everyone’s friendly, no one rushes around and everyone cares for the community.”

Students learn Maori life skills By Megan Connolly

Students of the Wainuiomata High School Maori class were out on Wednesday morning learning their way around preparing a hangi. The year 9 and 10 class dug it, lit it and prepared all the food themselves. The wet weather meant it wasn’t the ideal conditions to light a fire so it took longer than expected. Learning life skills, like hangi preparation, is part of the student’s My Personal Learning Development which sees them chose a passion project for the term, says teacher Matauranga Te Rauna. “We learn about Maori cooking, food and everything based around the Maori world. “The students cook something every Wednesday,” Matauranga says. The junior students were able to enjoy their hangi at lunchtime and use it as an opportunity to fundraise for their class.

From garden to jar: students make homemade chutney By Megan Connolly

The students of room four at Pukeatua School have been busy turning vegetables from their school garden into chutney as part of their Nga Pukeaga Ora life skills course. What makes their chutney special is that the youngsters have done everything themselves, growing the tomatoes from seedlings until they could harvest them. With the help of their teacher Mark Williams, they made 27 jars of chutney from their produce and they have been flying off the shelves thanks to the teachers of Pukeatua and family. The students washed, chopped,

stewed, boiled, sterilised and stirred in the school kitchen and were very proud of how it turned out, they say. “They didn’t like the smell at the beginning but once it was cooked they really liked it,” Mark says By making the chutney, the students hope to fundraise enough money to purchase a propagation shed which will help them sprout and grow plants all year round and sell to the community. This will help put some money back into the school and into the garden, Mark says. “You should buy our chutney because it’s homemade by the students at Pukeatua,” one of

the students says. When asked how they felt about the process, from gardening to bottling, they say they were very proud, amazed, and happy to take their hard work home. The five garden beds have also provided vegetables like cauliflower, broccoli, cabbage, carrots and kumara, and the produce they don’t cook with goes home to their families. As part of the Nga Pukeaga Ora course, students spend every Friday learning life skills like gardening, cooking, textiles, woodwork, design and using the 3D Printer. “They all look forward to Fridays,” Mark says.

Special mural unveiled

BE READY FOR THE OUTDOORS THIS EASTER! THIS BEACON COULD SAVE YOUR LIFE!!

A new mural was unveiled on the side of the Wainuiomata Fire Station’s fence on Saturday morning in memory of local artist and community supporter Rangatira Jack Tuhi and to support the family violence project: ‘It’s okay to ask for help’. PHOTO: Megan Connolly By Megan Connolly

A special mural that celebrates the message ‘It’s ok to ask for help’ was unveiled on Saturday afternoon on the fence of the Wainuiomata Fire Station. The mural was created by Rangatahi Learning Centre students and Rangatira Jack Tuhi (known to many as just Ranga), who unexpectedly passed away last year with cancer. Displaying the mural in a public place means that the message and the hard work done by the young people of Wainuiomata can be seen by all. “It livens this spot up and sends a strong message to those struggling with family violence,” Lower Hutt Mayor, Ray Wallace, says. The conception and concept behind the mural began in 2017 as part of the Hutt City Council’s Murals in Schools and Public Places programme. The painting done by the youth and Ranga, and was finished around the end of last year. It has taken many months to find its

perfect home on the side of the fire station. “It really shows the creativity of our young people,” Ray says. Artists Rikki Porter-Samuels and Ruth Robertson continued the support of the project after Ragna passed away, and really took both of them “under their wings”. Ranga was a huge influence on the young people of Wainuiomata and has worked on many projects with them in the form of public artworks, using art as a way to break down barriers and connect. “The youth decided the elements of the mural, like the representation of the birds flying free of bondage,” Rikki says. The memory of Ranga is very much present in the mural, the artists say. “Ranga was a total gentleman and the quietest,” Ruth says. The six youth of Rangatahi Learning Centre were also a part of a short documentary on TVNZ series Loading Docs recently that sees young Maori connecting to their culture through art. Titled ‘Soldiers Road Portraits’, it seeks to reframe identity in an empowering way and can be found on TVNZ on Demand.

Easter treats. Over 200 people attended the event according to Love Wainuiomata manager, Esther King. “We really appreciate the support from the community. “It was a great opportunity for parents to meet other parents and talk to new people. It was really social,” Esther

says. Organisers are hoping they can continue on the school holiday scavenger hunt tradition with something new and exciting every holiday. “We had some fantastic feedback and we’re incredibly happy with how the whole thing went,” Esther says.

SPORT Sports talk

with Jacob Page

Winx the wonder mare a winner to the end “She’s just a horse”. That may be true, according to jockey Hugh Bowman but Winx is a once in a lifetime mare. That’s a big, and often overused plaudit but the mighty mare has transcended racing and did it one more time to win the Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Sydney’s Randwick Racecourse, on Saturday. Her record warrants the lofty

praise as she won her 33rd consecutive race and 25th Group One. The best bit of the story is, unlike many champions, she went out a winner and retired in style. For me, it won’t be the victories I’ll remember. Instead it will be the nature of Winx herself. You’d swear she knew what

she was there for, that she knew 42,000 people came just to see her run. Despite the crowd, she never got worked up, didn’t care for the flashes of cameras, the roar of a massive crowd - she was utterly unfazed. She behaves like a professional athlete doing her job. So massive are her achievements, people dress in the

colours of her silks, people bet on her, not to make money (she paid $1 to win on Saturday at the TAB) but to merely have proof they were alive and saw her run. Winx is right up there with Black Caviar, Phar Lap and Makybe Diva in terms of the greatest Australasian thoroughbreds of the last 100 years and an argument could be made

she’s the best ever. Such was Winx’s greatness, I’m sure connections of horses racing against her on Saturday in their heart of hearts did not want to be the one to ruin the fairytale. Winx’s owners, her trainer, Chris Waller, were all in tears post-race. That’s what being part of history can do.

Pro Rugby players talk to Wainui students By Megan Connolly

Professional rugby players and ex-students, Peter Umaga-Jensen of the Hurricanes and Jackie Patea of the Black Ferns female rugby team, visited Wainuiomata High School last week to talk to aspiring rugby players. Both players attended the High School and have since gone on to have successful careers in rugby. Jackie is one of the most successful women rugby players, debuting for the Wellington Pride in 2006 and earned her place in Black Ferns squad in 2012. Peter went to the school for two years before he got a scholarship to Scots College. Peter’s twin, Thomas, is also a professional rugby player and plays for the Highlanders. Current school students talked to

students about their careers and their rugby life and answered questions at the end. The motivation behind the talk is to show students there is a pathway for rugby at the school and that students can have successful careers in the game, according to organisers. Jackie and Peter have been able to travel the world thanks to the game. “If you want to travel the world, play rugby,” both players emphasised. For aspiring rugby students, Alexis Tauaneai and Simati Leala, it was inspirational. “It’s an opportunity for me to be inspired and to follow in their footsteps,” Alexis says. “We’re privileged to have professional players come here and talk to us about the sport,” Simati says.

Ulalei Pua netball results

Ulalei Pua GA Alicia Hina looks to feed GS Bronwyn Pelenise against NNCU 1. PHOTO: Supplied

The Netball Hutt Valley season started on Saturday April 13 with Ulalei, for the first time in its 15 year history fielding two teams in the Premier 1 division. Ulalei Pua promoted at the end of the 2018 season faced the highly fancied Naenae Collegians United. Ulalei has never won against this top side who with Upper Hutt Maidstone United have dominated the Hutt Valley league. Ulalei Pua co-managed by Ali Colledge and Ellen Miles began well startling their opposition with a 12-7 lead after the first quarter. NNCU came back in the second

quarter to come within 1 goal at half time. Hayley Mellon and Paula Te Huna worked well in the defence circle providing numerous turnovers for Ulalei Pua to be converted by shooters Bronwyn Pelenise and Alicia Hina. The final quarter was a tense encounter with the score leveled and each team scoring goal for goal. At 44 all in the dying minutes, a fantastic intercept by defender Mellon converted by Pelenise gave Ulalei the 1 goal advantage and the centre pass. The experienced Ulalei Pua maintained possession and scored again in the last seconds to provide the first upset of the

season winning 46-44. “We were very pleased with the result given this was our first game together as a new unit. New players, Pelenise, Te Huna, Brittany Antipas and Celine Antipas had great first games adjusting well to our style and looking forward to the rest of the season, “ says manager Miles. Other Ulalei results: Premier 1: Ulalei Aute had an overwhelming win against Convent Old Girls 1 score: 75-32. Senior 1: Ulalei Fuesina beat Convent Old Girls 4 score 40-29. Senior 2: Ulalei Moso’oi lost to Wellington Area Sports Centre 1 score 32-26.

Great weekend for Harriers For the 23rd year, the Wainuiomata Classic mountain run was held on the firebreaks and bush tracks above Wainuiomata and Lower Hutt last Saturday. The Wainuiomata Harrier Club has successfully hosted this event since its beginning in 1996, with a few changes in the course but always in perfect conditions. This year was the exception. Having had three days of heavy rain the course proved very technical, and with the field of over 140 runners from around the country and overseas competing, it made for great competition in all grades. This year was also held in conjunction with the Wellington Mountain Running Championships and the New Zealand Mountain Running Championships. Among the top runners were New Zealand World Mountain running representatives as well as athletes looking to be selected for the World Mountain Running Championships being held in Argentina in November. All athletes took to the firebreaks from Parkway Rise, heading up to the water tower and around the firebreaks in courses ranging from 1.2km for the under 10 kids, to 11.5km for seniors.

Wainuiomata Harriers had eight runners competing, with 6 coming away with medals: Nikki Braniff-Jones 3rd Women 45-49 New Zealand Champs Penny Houlihan 1st Girls under 10 Wellington Champs Hanna Hoffman 2nd Women under 16 Wellington Champs Lucy Houlihan 2nd Girls under 14 Wellington Champs Cameron Forsyth 3rd Men under 20 Wellington Champs Arnika Lahood 3rd Girls under 14 Wellington Champs Georgina Cox 5th Women 40-44 New Zealand Champs Arabella Joyce 5th Girls under 12 Wellington Champs Well done to all competitors. Full results are on our website: www.sporty.co.nz/wainuiomataaahc This Saturday is a club run from our clubrooms, Richard Prouse Park, Hine Road.  For more information on this and other club events, please contact our Club President Nikki on 021 02348292
