These buses will be leaving Waikanae School at 3.05pm for the rest of this week, (except on Friday 19 when they will leave at 12.30pm).

The Exercise Book List will also be available to download off the website. END OF YEAR STUDENT REPORTS HAVE BEEN POSTED HOME: Due to the content and nature of the End of Year Student Reports we have resolved to post the End of Year Student Achievement Reports home. The reason for this is that we are providing you, the parent, with some very definite judgements around your child’s achievement when compared to the National Standards and the Curriculum Levels and we want you to be the person to decide if and when this should be shared with your child. The reports have been posted home, if you have NOT yet received a copy of your child’s report please contact the office immediately and we will arrange for another to be posted. Students will also be bringing home their Portfolios on Thursday. MEET THE TEACHER NIGHT MONDAY 9 FEBRUARY 2015: We are running our start of the year ‘Meet the Teacher’ with the format trialled in 2014 Key Points: There will be a sausage sizzle/picnic (weather permitting) on the field or around. Classrooms will be open from 5.30pm-7pm. This is an opportunity for parents to come in and see their child/children’s classrooms and meet the teacher as a group. Each syndicate will then have a quick information session to give you an overview of how they run. This will be held in the library… o 5.50 pm Te Waharua (Year 0-3) o 6.10 pm Te Aramoana (Year 4-6) o 6.30 pm Te Poutama (Year 7-8) If you feel that you need an individual interview with your child’s teacher, you will need to book this in the usual way, through the website which will be available from 3 Feb 2015. These interview times are intended for parents who have matters of a sensitive nature to talk to their child’s teacher about. They are not intended for the teacher to inform the parents, so please only book a slot if you need/want to talk individually to the teacher. 1:1 Interview times will be available for booking between 3.30 and 5.00 pm. If these times do not meet your needs please email your child’s teacher and make a booking at both of your mutual conveniences. Staff emails are in this format ….

  • 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.
