After taking the town to task in 2012, Dr Candy Cookson-Cox returned to the Eastern Bay last week full of praise for a turnaround that has seen no-one take their own life in Kawerau in the past two years. Back in 2012 Dr Cookson-Cox, a professional involved in the health and education sector for more than 30 years, gave evidence at an inquest into five deaths that had occurred in the mill-town over a period of six months. “It is the whanau who rescue our whanau, who support them and defend them.” – Dr Candy Cookson-Cox The deaths would be the first of, eventually, 13 young people from Kawerau that would take their own lives during an 18-month timeframe. At the time she said the inquest should focus more on the quality of the environment in which children were raised. “Healthy towns reflect healthy people and cohorts while unhealthy towns can be reflected in the untimely and premature death of its young and most vulnerable population,” she said, squarely laying the challenge at feet of the Kawerau community. Five years later, Dr Cookson-Cox was in Whakatane as a keynote speaker at the Whanau Champion grassroots conference, hosted by Tuwharetoa Ki Kawerau hauora at Mataatua Wharenui. And this time, Kawerau marked two years without a completed suicide, earning the praise of Dr Candy Cookson-Cox who in her speech commended the town for turning things around. “Rather than accept the situation and deny the problem you fight back. The results to date are startling and show that suicide on your watch has been almost wiped out.” Dr Cookson-Cox said since the 1970s, on the back of economic decline in the area, the community had been struggling with the fallout “For a time there the town was perceived as one of the worst places to live in – it was known as the teen pregnancy capital, there was the gang culture, substance abuse, poverty and the suicide rate confirming every negative indication. “But you know it is more complex than that and the community recognised a need to expose the rot.” Dr Cookson-Cox said the community had worked hard to turn their plight around, firstly through the Kawerau Suicide Prevention Plan. She was excited to see the town implement the next stage through the Whanau Champion model, which involved enabling family members to reach others when they were at their most vulnerable. “It is the whanau who rescue our whanau, who support them and defend them,” she said. And while she is proud of all of the accolades being won by her hometown, Peta Ruha – who as the clinical manager at Tuwharetoa Ki Continued: Page 3 $3,040 EXCL GST WINNING PAIR: Senior Constable Dave Robison and police dog Isaac are the top police patrol dog team for 2015. Photo Louis Klaassen D2115-07 Top patrollers – Isaac and Dave Megan Hunt Police reporter WHAKATANE Senior Constable Dave Robison and his four-legged partner Isaac are this year’s top police dog patrol pairing. At the National Police Dog and Detector Dog Championships last week, the pair beat 11 other teams from around New Zealand to win the coveted Frank Riley Cup. At the three-day competition, held in Wellington, Mr Robison and Isaac finished with 1103 points out of a maximum 1350. A score of 1000 or more is considered outstanding. The competition began with regional trials and 12 teams were selected for the final from the 130 to140 handlers and police dogs active around the country. Finalists arrived in Wellington on Monday morning and the competition began that afternoon and ran until Wednesday afternoon. This was the Whakatane pair’s third national final experience and followed a sixth placing last year. During the competition they demonstrated tracking, criminal bite work, obedience and scent work skills. Mr Robison said the dogs were not competing directly with each other and once an activity was completed each one was returned to its kennel. He said one exercise, which involved all the dogs out together, required them to sit and stay in a down position, while their handler walked away for 10 minutes. Mr Robison and Isaac also won trophies for top scores in obedience and criminal work, and close to the highest score for tracking. “That’s what makes a good police dog, we need them to do a bit of everything,” he said. Mr Robison described himself as the guy at the end of the rope, and the win was down to Isaac. “I gave him an extra bit of food on Wednesday night, but his reward is a throw toy. A game of fetch is his favourite thing to do,” Mr Robison said. “He’s happy with any kind of toy. He’s not too fussy – anything that moves he’ll chase it.” The trophies will remain in Wellington but the pair’s names are engraved on the sought-after silverware. Isaac’s performance was so impressive Mr Robison said police dog breeders were considering using his pal as part of the breeding programme for the next generation of police dogs. He said the pair spent a lot of their down time together, including walking Mr Robison’s son to and from school. “The kids can pat [Isaac], he’s really nice, and then when we get to work he’s a whole different animal.” He said the bond an officer had with their dog was crucial. “You need him to do things because he wants to do it, not because he has to,” he said. Measles scare at Sky Tower A MEASLES scare has prompted health officials to contact participants in last week’s Firefighter Sky Tower Stair Challenge in Auckland. An email to firefighters from Waikato District Health Board medical health officer Anita Bell advises they may unwittingly have been in contact with a person infected with measles while attending the event. Dr Bell said the risk of contracting the disease was low. Eighteen of the 750 firefighters taking part were from the Eastern Bay. Dr Bell said measles’ first symptoms were a fever and one or more of a runny nose, cough and sore red eyes. After a few days a red, blotchy rash appeared that lasted up to a week. People most at risk of contracting the disease were those who had not had the measles, mumps and rubella vaccine, or who had just had one dose of it. Anyone born before 1969 was likely to be immune to measles without having had the vaccine. WHAKATANE District Council will not appeal the Environment Court’s decision to decline the land designations and resource consents for a proposed wastewater treatment plant at Matata. Councillors resolved on Thursday not to lodge a High Court appeal against the decision relating to the Matata wastewater treatment plant site; and to explore other options and solutions for Matata wastewater. Mayor Tony Bonne said that although legal advisers believed there were grounds for an appeal, the cost and delay associated with pursuing an action in the High Court, and the uncertainty around the final outcome meant that course was “unlikely to deliver a good result for the Matata community”. “The High Court very rarely substitutes its own decision for that of the Environment Court, so even if an appeal was successful, the matter would probably have to go back to the Environment Court for a rehearing,” he said. “That could add up to $700,000 to the $2.3 million already expended to get the project to this point and it’s unlikely that we would have a confirmed decision until well into 2016. “Even then, there is no certainty that we would end up with resource consents that would allow a wastewater scheme to be constructed and operated at an affordable cost to district ratepayers. “Under the circumstances, we have agreed not to appeal the decision relating to the treatment plant site and to investigate other options,” Mr Bonne said. Once the cost implications of any viable alternatives have been established, the council also intends to investigate other partnership funding possibilities for a wastewater scheme. In the meantime, the resource consent for the land application field (disposal site) will be explored, so the council can assess whether the conditions applied by the Environment Court are achievable. Alternative sites for the wastewater treatment plant, and potentially the land application field, will be considered, as will all other possible solutions. Mr Bonne said the council would also raise several matters of concern arising from the Environment Court’s decision with the Government. $4,780 EXCL GST DR200 TROJAN TF125 MUDBUG SAVE $551!

McIntosh Travel Whakatane travel agent Izzy Murray has come out sounding the alarm that the money required for Kutarere Primary School to travel to the World Children’s Festival is not raised yet. “There’s a $8250 shortfall,” she said. “The school has been fundraising since last year for the event.” Mrs Murray said most of the travellers scheduled to depart on June 29 had never been out of New Zealand. “This includes the parents who are going. It’s going to be a huge event for them.” Kutarere School principal Susan Lee said the recent premiere of the movie Oku Moe Moea – the Dream which is bigger than I am – held at Kutarere Marae, failed to generate any funds for the trip. “A music fundraiser held last week also did not generate any income,” Ms Lee said. “But it was lovely and I slept well afterwards.” The movie is based on the book written by Opotiki woman Shona Hammond Boys, which was launched >Continued: Page 2 >ELECTRICIAN Jason Walker with Opotiki College’s now working model of the sun, Photo Whare Akuhata OB1194 moon and earth.
