PLASTIC BAGS I would like to thank Ronan Smythe (10) for his well researched article on Plastic Bags (Bugle 23 August 2016). As I have used cloth recyclable bags for my shopping for many years, it is alarming how many plastic bags still accumulate at my place. There are bread bags, plastic from around toilet rolls, kitchen paper, etc. I appreciate the move by New World supermarkets and The Warehouse (there may be others I’m not aware of) to provide a collection place for all the soft plastic that cannot go in the recycling system. Well done, Ronan. ~ Mariann Mear KAIWAKA WAR MEMORIAL HALL Annual General Meeting 5pm Tuesday 11 October 2016

www.kaiwaka.co.nz Kaiwaka Bugle - 4 October 2016 Page 11 EUTOPIA UPDATE It is all go again at Eutopia and the big face lift continues. We have finished a 3- month stint working in Auckland and we are back on the job, the place is changing again. The ugly old 'book nook' which occluded the Northern sun has gone, making much more space and opening the area up further. We are erecting new walls and incorporating gates to fully enclose the back courtyard. We hope one day, in the not too distant future, this will make an ideal music venue as well as a pleasant outdoor space. The ferro walls should reduce the truck rumble from the road. We are trying to get the new walls meshed up, plastered and carved before it gets too hot, so this is a bit of a race against time. The concrete work, especially the carving is hindered, and the work time massively reduced, by hot, dry weather. There is a lot of renovation and rebuilding work still to be completed, some resurfacing still to do and most surfaces still need to be painted. The final touches to the courtyard mosaics are being completed between rain showers and Robert, amongst other things, is working to finish the last remaining windows and doors, making the frames and glazing them. We are working on many fronts, lots of sculptures are being made behind the scenes and there are still a lot more to be made. We are in the process of planning and fitting out a new commercial kitchen and we also have a lot of outdoor furniture to make. We have constructed the framework for a sculptural wall being erected around the sewerage installation by State Highway 1 below Eutopia. It will be very noticeable from the road. It is part of the beautification of Kaiwaka project done in conjunction with Council. We are looking for volunteers to help with this community project. If you would like to get involved with this or any other aspect of what we are doing, please get in contact with us design at [email protected] or 022 123 1160.
