Rakaia News Published by Rakaia Community Association, Acton Centre, Rakaia Rakaia News Published by Rakaia Community Association, Acton Centre, Rakaia. Published: Fortnightly: Deadline for news: 10.00am MONDAY Phone: (03) 303 5163 Mobile: 027 555 00 21 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/RakaiaNews Email: [email protected] www.rakaianews.co.nz Thursday 25 January 2018 Issue 498 Blue Light Success A registered charity called Blue Light, which works in partnership with the New Zealand Police, delivers an extensive range of youth programmes and activities for youth throughout New Zealand free from drugs, alcohol and violence. One of these activities is a Life Skills Camp held at the New Zealand Defence Force base in Burnham. This programme specialises in building self-respect, respect for others, working within boundaries, self-care, team work and problem solving for 14 to 17 year olds. Kaydence Reihana, a 17-year old who this year is returning to Ellesmere College, attended the last Life Skills Camp for 2017. At the conclusion of the course, Kaydence was awarded a top prize of ‘Overall Course Award’. Kaydence beat a strong group of young people, from various towns around the South Island, to take this prize. Cave Stream exit The Blue Light Life Skills Co-ordinator, Hannah Ward, commented that “Kaydence was chosen by his peers for demonstrating leadership skills, self-confidence and team work, was always respectful to staff and fellow course members and ultimately the person you would love to have in your group”. Kaydence and the other participants stayed at the Burnham Military camp for the week-long program, living, eating and interacting with army personnel. The week’s activities included learning parade skills, conquering the Burnham Agility, Rope and Confidence Course and working as a part of a team to solve problems together. One day was spent climbing through the cave at Cave Stream, overcoming many fears and phobias as they crawled, swam and climbed through the cold water. Kaydence moved to the South Island (the better island) five years ago and is thoroughly enjoying life on the farm (nowadays anyway). His personal goal for participating in the Life Skills Camp was to see how far he could push himself, put himself outside his comfort zone and to generally improve his life skills. After his week at Burnham Military Camp, Kaydence is seriously contemplating joining the army. The defence force offers a range of careers/trades including mechanical and engineering, which is the field Kaydence would like to pursue. Kaydence would like to take this opportunity to thank his Dad, Hemi, and Bridget for all their support and encouragement. Also, Kaydence would like to thank his peers for their encouragement and vote of thanks for selecting me as the overall winner. Overall Course Winner Kaydence Reihana Linda Hammerich and Reviewing Officer OC - LTCDR Grant Boore Rakaia News Rakaia News Issue 498 - 25 January 2018 Ramblings from the Editor I would like to take this opportunity to farewell one of the Rakaia News’ regular contributors - Niven Murch, Rakaia’s Rakaia, welcome to the first edition of theRakaia News for own gardening guru. Niven has contributed for over three 2018. The majority of people will be back at work by now and years and has never complained or been late with his column. the antics of their break away are nothing but a distant memory. With the uncertainty for the future of the Gardening column It is surprising how fast time travels once you become an adult, in the Rakaia News fresh in my mind, another worry enters. especially if you happen to be relaxing and enjoying yourself. What do I do if nobody sends me their reports, stories or As I start another year of creating the Rakaia News, I have a contributions? I can’t fill 24 pages all by myself. And that is few concerns. My biggest is where am I going to find this year’s what I have to remember and keep reminding myself. The stories. Rakaia is not really that big a community and, with close Rakaia News is a truly community-based newsletter which is on 500 issues under our belt, surely we are ‘newsed’ out. When successful because the community recognises that it is a great can I start to repeat previous storylines which keep reoccurring forum to communicate with Rakaia about Rakaia. So, send me in our world? One of my sources of leads was Adrienne’s Four your ideas for new columns you would like to see printed in Square, both Adrienne herself and her customers. But now the Rakaia News. that the community pew has been removed and even the dog Thank you everyone for your support and commitment. bowl requires filling more times than not, information doesn’t seem to be as forthcoming from this source nowadays and it is Linda Hammerich a concern to me. I will continue to keep the faith that my email Rakaia News and telephone will run full of story ideas. My second area of slight concern is my dedicated advertisers. As the economy forces them to think carefully about where their precious dollar is spent, will the Rakaia News advertising budget be reduced? The local advertisers are so critical to keeping the community informed of their services and products and keeping the Rakaia News operating.

The medical centre has a very good attendance rate for patients keeping their appointments, however we have noticed that there are still occasions when patients fail to show up for their scheduled appointment or who cancel late, meaning we cannot re-use the appointment. The effect of this is: • An increase in the waiting time for appointments • Frustration for both staff and patients • It prevents someone else who is sick being seen sooner Patients tell us that they sometimes find it difficult to see their doctor or practice nurse for a routine appointment. We understand that there are always circumstances which can prevent a person from attending an appointment, and we ask that you give us adequate notice (at least 24 hours beforehand) whenever this happens. Special circumstances, where due to an extreme situation, when no notice can be given, may also STEADY AS YOU GO occur. However, even in such instances, it is a courtesy to Exercises for Everyone phone reception afterwards and explain the circumstances at the earliest opportunity.

  • New Zealand: Background and Bilateral Relations with the United States
    New Zealand: Background and Bilateral Relations with the United States Bruce Vaughn Specialist in Asian Affairs May 27, 2011 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov RL32876 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress New Zealand: Background and Bilateral Relations with the United States Summary New Zealand is increasingly viewed as a stalwart partner of the United States that welcomes U.S. presence in its region. New Zealand and the United States enjoy very close bilateral ties across the spectrum of relations between the two countries. These ties are based on shared cultural traditions and values as well as on common interests. New Zealand is a stable and active democracy with a focus on liberalizing trade in the Asia-Pacific region. New Zealand also has a history of fighting alongside the United States in most of its major conflicts including World War I, World War II, Korea, and Vietnam. New Zealand is a regular contributor to international peace and stability operations and has contributed troops to the struggle against militant Islamists in Afghanistan, where it has a Provincial Reconstruction Team (PRT) in Bamiyan Province. The bilateral relationship between the United States and New Zealand was strengthened significantly through the signing of the Wellington Declaration in November 2010. At that time, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and New Zealand Prime Minister John Key signaled that past differences over nuclear policy have been set aside as the two described the relationship as the strongest and most productive it has been in 25 years. In the mid-1980s New Zealand adopted a still-in-effect policy of not allowing nuclear armed or nuclear powered ships to visit New Zealand ports.

  • Widespread Dryness for Much of New Zealand, Particularly Western and Central North Island
    National Climate Summary: February 2014 Issued: 4 March 2014 Widespread dryness for much of New Zealand, particularly western and central North Island. Rainfall Well below normal rainfall (less than 50 percent of February normal) occurred for much of the North Island except for eastern Northland where near (within 20% of normal) or above normal (120-150% of normal) rainfall was recorded and for the coast south of Hawke’s Bay, where well above normal (more than 150% of normal) rainfall was recorded. Below normal rainfall (50-79 percent of February normal) occurred for the remainder of the North Island. Many locations in the South Island were well below normal, such as parts of north Canterbury and southern Marlborough regions, but especially in areas from south Canterbury through central Otago and northern Southland regions. Most other parts of the South Island recorded below normal rainfall, with the exception of Christchurch which recorded above normal and Dunedin which recorded near normal precipitation. Temperature Temperatures for much of New Zealand were near average (within 0.5°C of February average). Exceptions to this were localised areas of above average temperatures such as Auckland, Hamilton, and central North Island (0.5-1.2°C above February average). Above average temperatures were recorded in Reefton and Arthurs Pass as well as parts of south Canterbury, Central Otago and Fiordland. Pockets of below average temperatures (0.5-1.2°C below February average) were experienced for Wellington, northern portions of Hawke’s Bay and far northern parts of the South Island. Soil moisture As at 1 March 2014, soils were much drier than normal across the North Island, except for eastern Northland and the coast south of Hawke’s Bay where soils are slightly wetter than normal for time of year.
