WADESTOWN SCHOOL Xxcommunity Newsletter No 2 WADESTOWN SCHOOL XXCommunity Newsletter No 2 Acting Principal: Ian Hastie Website: www.wadestown.school.nz Thursday 20th February 2020 Dear Parents/Guardians, Well done to all students on a very positive start to the school year. I have been very impressed with student willingness to work alongside teachers in their classrooms; Playground interaction is positive and very active. There are many sports games being played in all areas of school and I have been impressed with how students interact with each other and in groups. Well done Wadestown students!! Looking forward to seeing you all at the School Picnic tomorrow night between 5.30 – 7.30 pm. I have been told that this is a great occasion for staff and community to mix and of course, it is a special school picnic this year with it being Sally’s last. Thank you to the PTA for all the work you are doing for the picnic.

Sallybration Afternoon Tea for Ex-Students and Friends On Friday last week we kicked off our Sallybration events with an open afternoon where ex-students and friends of Wadestown School could visit the playground and classes. Some Wadestown School students were ambassadors for the school and hosted our guests. This was followed by a lovely afternoon tea and speeches by Sally Barrett and Nick Julian. There were approximately 200 visitors that afternoon. Thank you to the Sallybration organising team for the lovely food and excellent organisation of this event. Sallybration Student Ambassadors Ex-students and friends of Wadestown School with Sally Coronavirus Update Wadestown School has received a further update from the Ministry of Education regarding the Coronavirus. As at 13th February 2020 there were no confirmed cases of Coronavirus in New Zealand, although the Ministry of Health do anticipate that at some stage this will occur. The Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Health are well prepared for such an eventuality and Wadestown School will be following the advice of the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Education should the situation arise. Please do continue to refer to the Ministry of Health’s information page on their website. It will be updated as new information comes to hand. https://www.health.govt.nz/our-work/diseases-and- conditions/covid-19-novel-coronavirus School Orchestra The Wadestown School orchestra, run by Rupa Maitra and Pip Honore, has been in existence at the school for 7 years. The orchestra rehearses every Wednesday at lunchtime in Room 8 at the Rose St site. Over the years, the orchestra has performed at the House and Garden Walk fundraiser, for the Wadestown Wilton Horticultural Society Flower Shows and before the WCC Young People's Arts Festival in the foyer of the Michael Foyer Centre each year. We also perform to the school students at regular intervals during the year. If your child can play an instrument and is interested in joining the Wadestown School Orchestra they would be most welcome. Please email Rupa at [email protected] or speak to Lydia Harris (Classroom teacher, Room 12) who will be taking over Pip’s role in the school orchestra this year. News from the Library Our librarian Derek Piper is back from his year in Cambodia. He would love to hear from anybody who might be available during the year to cover new books and help with other library-related tasks.

  • Khandallah, Broadmeadows, Ngaio, Crofton Downs and Kaiwharawhara
    3 Management sector plans 3.1 Sector 1 Khandallah, Broadmeadows, Ngaio, Crofton Downs and Kaiwharawhara A unique feature of this sector is the harbour escarpment and the steep gullies off Onslow Road and Homebush Road. Where topography permits, the bush reserves have been developed to include tracks, with play areas, kick-about space or informal recreation space sometimes also provided. The Outer Green Belt (OGB) extends right down into Broadmeadows, Crofton Downs, Ngaio and Khandallah and provides a prominent natural setting for residential housing in this area and access to the extensive track system. The suburban reserves enhance ecological connectivity between the OGB and the harbour via the large natural gully reserves and smaller pockets of open space. This sector is adjacent to but does not include Trelissick Park or reserves in the Outer Green Belt. The open space network comprises: • One sport and recreation (community) park – Nairnville Park, which has a 3/4 size artificial field, three winter fields, two summer cricket blocks, a skateboard ramp and a community playground. Nairnville Recreation Centre is located on the park and provides a range of indoor recreation activities and programmes, changing rooms and public toilets during its hours of operation. • Kaiwharawhara Park on Hutt Road has one winter field and changing rooms. • Ngaio Tennis Club leases a recreation reserve on the corner of Crofton Road and Waikowhai Street. • 10 neighbourhood parks with a further two, Khandallah Park and play area and Silverstream Road play area, on the edge of this sector managed under the Outer Green Belt Management Plan. • Several large bush reserves.

  • Stage 1 – Issues and Needs Analysis Summary of Submissions
    Stage 1 – Issues and Needs Analysis Summary of Submissions Summary of Submissions 1 Executive summary This report summarises the submissions received as part of the first stage of consultation on the North Wellington Public Transport Study. The first stage of the study seeks to identify the public transport issues of the community and key stakeholders, particularly the passenger transport needs of the area. Key stakeholders including land transport providers, community groups, schools, affected residents and the general public were invited to participate in the consultation process. Notification of the process was undertaken in November 2005 through public notices in local papers, public displays at the Johnsonville Mall, Johnsonville, Khandallah and Ngaio Libraries, and a maildrop to over 15,000 households throughout the study area. In addition a webpage was set up to increase awareness and provide an ongoing reference point for interested parties. In total, just over 500 submissions were received from individuals, 5 from community groups and 4 from other organisations. Geographically, submissions were received from the suburbs within the study area. Khandallah, Ngaio, and Johnsonville (in order) were the largest submitter groups. 42 submitters did not specify a suburban address, 8 were from the wider Wellington Region and 1 was from a national organisation. Over half of submitters wished to be contacted further regarding the study. Key findings • Slightly over 50% of submitters use bus services while slightly under 50% use train services. • Approximately 85% walk to their public transport, 15% drive. • The top six issues raised by submitters were frequency of buses (18%), reliability (17%), route (17%), new trains (12%), and the rundown state of trains (10%).

  • SUBMISSION Khandallah Medium Density Housing and Town Centre Plans
    SUBMISSION Khandallah Medium Density Housing and Town Centre Plans From: Khandallah Residents Group c/o 53 Cashmere Avenue Khandallah Wellington 6035 [email protected] Contacts: Diane Calvert Ph 029 971 8994 Christine McKenna Ph 021 107 1675 This submission is made on behalf of the above working group. There are 11 members on the working group, and 305 people who have chosen to be on our database. Summary 1. To be clear, the Khandallah Residents group supports housing choice and supply solutions that best meet the current and future needs of our community. 2. Khandallah Residents Group is opposed to Council’s plan for medium-density housing in Khandallah as an appropriate solution to meeting housing choice and supply needs. 3. The need for additional housing in Khandallah is modest and does not justify the introduction of medium-density housing of the type and scale proposed. Rather than copying housing solutions from larger and different types of cities, we should be more innovative and devise answers appropriate to the scale of the future need and that fit with our community. 4. We have significant concerns about the quality of the consultation process and the flawed and leading submission form. 5. The town planning process needs to take into account the whole suburb and its infrastructure needs and be undertaken in collaboration with the community. This should culminate in a holistic plan for the future of Khandallah. Only then should a Khandallah Design Guide should be developed (not the other way around as has already occurred). 6. Local residents highly value Khandallah’s character (e.g.
