Waikanae School Newsletter Term 3 Week 4 Dear Parents and Caregivers 15 August 2017 2017 TERM DATES Term 3 2017 Monday 24 July- We are all very happy with the manner in which our ‘new’ school assemblies worked last Friday. If Friday 29 September you have not caught up with the change a brief description follows Term 4 1. We are no longer using the Waikanae Memorial Hall except for the final End of Year Prize Monday 16 October - Giving Assembly. Instead we are using the school hall where we are dividing the school in half Friday 15 December and having two smaller and shorter assemblies. The only exception to this is when it is fine, warm and dry where we will be using the Top Court for a whole school assembly. 2. The Assemblies are being held on Friday afternoons. The first of these was Friday 11 August The next 3 assembles with be held on the following dates; Friday 25 August, Friday 8 September and Friday 22 September Te Waharua Tahi/Tahi (Years 1-4) starting at 1.40pm Te Aramoana and Te Poutama (Years 5-8) starting at 2.20pm Overtime we may mix and match the syndicates or houses so that we have differing groups and students at each assembly. All parents and friends of the school are welcome!! Due to the large number of families sending students to school before 8.30 the school is considering keeping all classrooms locked until 8.15am. Our official opening time is 8.30 am as there is no supervision offered before this time. The only exception to this are the students arriving on the Peka Peka and Reikorangi school buses. This is a major Health and Safety issue and we cannot reasonably be expected to take on this role until 8.30am. We remind parents that an Out of School Care Service operates in the school hall every morning. ‘Funzone’ is the company that offers these child care services and their rates are very reasonable. So if you do not want your child locked out in the cold and wet, please either do not send your child to school prior to 8.30am or make use of the Out of School Care Service available. Before School Care from 7:00am – 8:30am and After School Care from when School Finishes to 7:00pm at Waikanae School. For more information go to www.funzone.co.nz, call 0800 543 9696 or email to [email protected]. Congratulations to our Year 6 Mastermind Team Georgia Martin, Joe Popham, Isabel Spencer, Caitlyn White and Ian Incledon who came 2nd in the Mastermind finals last Friday! They had to read 15 of the New Zealand Book Awards and answer heaps of questions on them. The competition was against all the schools on the Kapiti Coast. Well done team Waikanae! 17 August Senior Winter Tournament (yr 7-8) 25 August Assembly at school 30 August Board of Trustees Meeting 7.30pm School Staffroom This Terms Activity Fees have been emailed out to all families. Firstly, we send out an Invoice for each child. This means that larger families will get multiple Invoices (depending on the number of children attending Waikanae School). Secondly, the Invoices will be followed by a Family Statement (1 per family). The amounts for this Terms Activity Fee per Syndicate are as Follows Syndicate Description Amount Te Waharua Tahi Science show, Mathletics, Discovery Time $15.00 Rooms 5,6,7,8,9,20 and 21 Te Waharua Rua Science show, Mathletics, Gymnastics $33.00 Rooms 1,2,3, and 4 Te Aramoana Science show, Swimming, Reading Eggs $76.00 Rooms 17,18,19 and Year 6s in Rooms 10 and 11 Te Poutama Rooms 14,15 16 and Science show, Kiwi Hoops $15.00 Year7s in Rooms 10 and 11 The Activity Fee is a compulsory payment which the school is able to insist on payment for. • Participation by students in Activity Fee funded activities is voluntary. • Any parent that does not want their child to participate in any of the Activity Fee funded activities must withdraw their child by notifying the office (in writing). The easiest way to do this is to email the office at this address [email protected] Following notification of a student’s withdrawal, staff will ensure that an alternative programme is organised for the student or students concerned. The school fully understands that ‘cash flow’ is an issue for many families and as a result the school is completely willing and prepared for families to drip feed these accounts over time by setting up an Automatic Payment. The school suggests that something between $5 and $15 per week would resolve all debts owed and reduce the burden of larger payments on families. ASB 12-3157-0107950-00 Please use child’s name as a reference. Importantly we do not have an issue with Families being in debt as long as a suitable Automatic Payment is in operation to cover the debt over time. BBT 539—Leaving car in the drop off bay.

  • Realigning Lifestyle
    REALIGNING LIFESTYLE An integrated approach to living, ecology and production within rural subdivision Monica Wong Realigning Lifestyle: an integrated approach to living, ecology and production within rural subdivision By Monica Wong A 120-point thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Landscape Architecture Victoria University of Wellington School of Architecture 2016 iv ABSTRACT The Kapiti Coast is changing. The long awaited expansion of the state highway will see rapid growth along the coast and with it, the rural landscape will face a new set of challenges. As the demand for rural land increases, so does land-use tension. Productive land, which was once converted from an extensive wetland network, is slowly being redeveloped into residential subdivisions in order to fulfil an increasing demand for the country lifestyle. However, lifestyle blocks usually have little productive value and subdivisions fragment natural habitats and ecological systems. The typical method of dealing with land-use is the district plan, which designates the most appropriate land-use to the most appropriate area. However, despite good intentions, it has become increasingly apparent that this planning process is no longer reaching its desired outcome. This thesis will explore new strategies for designing rural-residential subdivision, aiming to address land-use issues through increasing diversity. Set in the beach hamlet of Peka Peka, the design investigates one of the last undeveloped areas of private coastal land in the district. This area is prime real estate, but also holds a high capacity for production. It is situated on the remnants of the Great Swamp, a large network of interconnecting wetlands that used to span the length of the coast, providing the potential to significantly increase the ecological value of this land.

  • EPA Board of Enquiry Hon Sir John Hanley David Bunting, Environment
    EPA Board of Enquiry Hon Sir John Hanley David Bunting, Environment Commissioner Glenice Paine Mark Appledoorn Intro My name is Ruben Blok and I live at 79 Belvedere Ave, Waikanae. I am a Business Intelligence consultant with a private local firm and I create analytic reporting solutions for major private and public sector organisations throughout the Australasia. I am usually not too worried about government decisions but given my field of expertise and what I have witnessed with this project something very wrong is happening here and the information does simply not add up. I oppose the NZTA Makays to Peka Peka proposal and would like to tell you my experience and explain my findings. Lead Up We moved from Auckland to Kapiti (originally to Raumati South) in 2007 to start a family and fell in love with the community and surroundings. The combination of bush, beach, and lifestyle was an easy decision. We heard about KCDCs initial proposal to create a new alternate road and bridge to Waikanae I quite liked the idea. It seems a little crazy that you can almost walk to Waikanae from Paraparaumu Beach faster than you can drive (we tested it the other day). A year or two later we received the notification from NZTA that as part of the Roads of National Significance project they were planning to upgrade the existing SH1 to future proof the national grid. We again quite optimistic when we saw the proposals (WO and EO only) and chose option EO, upgrade the existing SH1, as it had minimal impact on the existing community leaving SH1 as close to its original location as possible.

  • B.8 Subdivision and Development Issues
    B.8 SUBDIVISION AND DEVELOPMENT ISSUES B.8 SUBDIVISION AND DEVELOPMENT ISSUES B.8.1 General Subdivision and consequent development has a significant effect on the character of the district. Subdivision design and density is a significant factor determining the availability of resources for activities and the character of urban form. It also creates expectations by landowners that they can further develop their land and utilise services and community resources. The approach taken in the District Plan regarding subdivision and development must be seen in the context of the response to urban growth arising from the Strategic Plan and the consequences of long-term planning options. B.8.2 Urban Growth The district has an abundance of land zoned for residential, commercial and industrial development. In producing the District Plan, Council gave consideration to various options with regard to growth, varying from introducing a moratorium on development to increasing the existing residentially zoned areas to accommodate as much growth as possible. Council decided to retain essentially the same area of land zoned residential as is currently in the Transitional District Plan. This approach enables growth to continue for at least the next fifteen years, but for Council to review the situation ten years hence. An important part of the strategy adopted by Council is the creation of green belts within and between existing communities. Future growth is to be based on Raumati, Paraparaumu, Waikanae and Otaki, with Paekakariki to be retained as a unique village centre. Also the settlements of Te Horo and Peka Peka are expected to retain their special characteristics.
