Ayers and graces: the tale of the accidental poet By Viv Posselt
“An L-plate poet who thought she knew nowt, Penned a few words while not allowed out. They swamped social media, lured ‘alternative’ fame, Were then picked to raise funds for those easing the pain.” An ‘accidental’ poet whose lockdown verse went viral on social media and won her a place in an international poetry book has been in Waipā for a special reading. Jan Beaumont fronted a late-June poetry reading at Cambridge Oaks. She kicked it off by reading, ‘Let’s All Drink to Lockdown’, a work that marked the start of her poetry career in March this year and was responsible for both global recognition and an early speedbump that confused her with British comedian and gem of verse, Pam Ayers MBE. The journey started when Jan’s daughter suggested she upload ‘Let’s All Drink to Lockdown’ to social media. People loved and re-posted it in droves, but somewhere along the way the name of its author dropped out. One appreciative

Now an Auckland resident in her 70s, Jan has lived in several countries around the world. Her poetry reflects day-to-day life, with nuggets drawn from her work as a legal secretary,
On the beat with Senior Constable DEB THURGOOD Plan ahead for that holiday
It’s school holidays and I’m lucky enough to have a couple weeks leave and the chance to get away. I hope those of you with children are having a proper family break after the last holidays got swallowed up by lockdown. Travelling on the roads in heavy rain on Monday highlighted to me the need for us to drive to the conditions. It’s worrying to see cars in the rain with their lights off or speeding and overtaking in far from ideal conditions. We not only have to consider our own actions but also be focused and aware of the actions of other road users. Report any dangerous or inconsiderate driving to the police so we can catch up with the driver. It is a legal requirement that, if you are unlucky to have a crash involving another party, you stop and ascertain whether anyone has been injured. It is not necessary to report a non-injury crash to police and insurance can often take

reader thought it sounded like a Pam Ayers piece, an assumption that led to a radio station approaching Pam Ayres’ husband/manager Dudley Russell to arrange an on-air interview. “I got a message from the PR person in my retirement village that the BBC wanted to interview me. It turned out they had been in touch with Dudley, who told them it wasn’t a Pam Ayers poem, and they eventually tracked me down,” Jan laughed. “I couldn’t hold a candle to Pam Ayers … she’s brilliant.” Jan went on to write a host of poems during lockdown, all of which generated an international clamour for more. She has been interviewed by radio stations in the United Kingdom and Australia, and more recently here in New Zealand, and the speaking engagements are beginning to come in; she will be back in Waipā soon for a talk to the 60s Up group and the Cambridge Lions. Much to Jan’s delight, they are also being used to help others. She sent several audio recordings of her poems to aid fundraising for Sight for Wight, an organisation for the blind and visually impaired in the Isle of

While away from home, be sure to ask your neighbours to keep an eye on your house and to report back anything suspicious. If possible, have them clear your letterbox or arrange for mail to be held at the post office. Be sure to secure your doors and windows before leaving and, if in place, activate your house alarm. Don’t forget to arrange for someone to care for any pets - they are part of the family too! Having someone do that at your place is an opportunity for another set of eyes to be looking after your property. My final word is on scams.

Briefs… Green candidate The Greens have named Danna Glendinning as their Taupō candidate in the electorate held by National’s Louise Upston. Glendinning, who lives in Taupō, says she will campaign for party votes, arguing it is essential to have a bigger Green presence in government. She has previously held senior roles in the Party and managed their Parliamentary Office for four years. Bike checks Youngsters are getting help to be seen on their bikes through a police and Waipā District Council initiative. Last week a team including Megan Jolly, Road Safety Co-ordinator for Waipā District Council, called in on Cambridge Middle School to fit front and rear lights on 50 bikes. The annual ‘be safe be seen’ promotion reminds cyclists of the law that requires cyclists to use front and rear lights during the hours of darkness and when visibility is poor. Free bike bells are also available at the Te Awamutu Waipā District Council office or the Cambridge Sport Waikato Office. Bus fares Waipā residents pay half of the normal fare to catch a bus from Cambridge, Te Awamutu and Ōhaupō to Hamilton from this week as a new bus ticketing system is introduced. Waikato Regional Council has launched a new Bee Card system to replace the existing Busit card. While it is rolled out over the next six months, fares will be significantly reduced. For more information go to www.busit.co.nz/about-us/ bee/for Funding boost Waikato Regional Council has secured $5.535 million in Government funding for quick-start restoration projects.

Sort it out…talking rubbish By Jeremy Smith
A sheep’s fleece once made its way – to a point – through Waipā’s recycling network before being intercepted and removed by staff. The extreme scenario – which it is hoped was a one-off - was cited as an example of the importance of properly sorted recycling as the News took a tour of the district’s newly-minted “state of the art” recycling sorting centre last week. “That’s the craziest thing I’ve seen in my time,” the centre’s operations manager, Caleb Ahu, said reflecting on some of the experiences staff had had at the coal face of the district’s recycling process. Data collected at the centre – based in Te Awamutu - will be used to create education programmes to help ensure residents stick to the district council’s newly-enacted recycling policy change. Annual figures in terms of total recycling processed are not yet available because the centre - which employs 16 staff – only opened in March. “What I can say though is that up to nine tonne of recycling arrives and is processed here daily,” Mr Ahu said. “The important key messages now are about what people can and can’t recycle – and the more they do that within our communities the more it helps us here at our end.” After first signalling its intentions to do so nearly three month ago, Waipā District Council began limiting recycling in the district to plastics displaying numbers 1, 2 and 5 a fortnight ago. Plastics 1, 2 and 5 include milk and soft drink
bottles - plastics 3, 4, 6 and 7 - including items like styrofoam cups and some types of plastic containers and some plastic plates and cutlery – will be consigned to landfill. Council launched its kerbside recycling service last July, and since then, according to operations team leader Jennifer Braithwaite recycling has been transported in bulk as mixed material to a recycling centre in Auckland for sorting. The biggest difference with having the sorting centre online is that mixed recycling will now be separated into cardboard, paper and plastics and sent directly to the market. Glass recycling will continue to be taken to Auckland for processing. “The biggest benefit I see is that we’ll know just how much of the different plastic types are being collected, as well as how much contamination is being placed in the recycling bins,” she said. The centre’s technology meant recycling could be sorted automatically by machine, or manually. Mixed recycling is sorted on conveyor belts, with any items that can’t be recycled removed. A magnet then removes any metal items and plastics are then grouped together, before being compacted in to square bales. Mr Ahu confirmed the day before the News’ visit, a stockpile of 33 tonne of mixed cardboard and 10 tonne of milk bottles had been sent away. “It’s a far more efficient way of doing things, because not only can we fit more onto each truck in bales, but it allows us to have more trucks on the road,” he said.
What a load of rubbish…
Ms Braithwaite said the removal of plastics 3, 4, 6 and 7 “doesn’t equate to as much of the overall recycling amount as you might think”. “When it comes to these grades of plastics, it’s simply a matter of us not having anywhere to send them to market.” Construction of sorting centre - owned by Waipā District Council recycling contractor Metallic Sweeping Ltd – first began in October. After opening in March, it continued to operate as an essential service during Covid-19. The News will be contacting New Zealand companies still packaging products in the plastics which are not being recycled. This week we have asked the producers of Big Ben and Irvine’s pies why they are using type 6 plastics and whether or not they plan to make a change.
Emergency calls save driver’s life
By Jeremy Smith
Quick thinking by two members of the public last week is being credited with saving a Cambridge woman’s life. Police were called after the car the woman was driving was seen moving from lane to lane on the road. Senior Constable Casey Walker
said when she stopped the vehicle, in Riverlea in Hamilton, she could immediately tell the driver was extremely unwell. The woman was taken to Waikato Hospital for emergency surgery, and senior constable Walker told the News on Monday the woman – who spent two days in intensive care -remained in hospital. “While she reported knowing she
was unwell, she has said she was unaware of just how unwell,” Senior Constable Walker said. She added the woman was on her way to work at the time of the incident, and doctors have told police they had an eight-minute window to get the lady into theatre. Senior Constable Walker said the woman recalled looking in her rear view mirror and seeing the patrol
which narrows the large blood vessel that carries blood from the heart to the rest of the body. William also has pulmonary stenosis, which narrows the pulmonary valve opening and slows blood flow. There is a probability William has a rare, life-threatening condition - Williams Syndrome a genetic condition characterised by cardiovascular disease and developmental delays. Nicole said yesterday they have just been told he requires another operation, a date for which had not
been set yet. “It’s pretty hard to hear that he needs more open-heart surgery after such a short time,” she said. Members of the Cameron’s wider family set up a Givealittle page and yesterday just under $7500 had so far been gifted. Nicole said the money pledged had been a big help. “People have been so generous and we’re very grateful,” she said. They have bought a defibrillator and now are looking at a therapy dog.

car’s lights coming down the hill behind her. “She said they knew they were for her and she thought to herself ‘they are coming to save me, I’m going to be ok.”’ “If it wasn’t for those two members of the public phoning in, there is a good chance she would not be with us today,” Senior Constable Walker said.
Baby William faces more surgery By Jeremy Smith
Te Awamutu’s William Cameron has been given a helping hand by the public. The story of the difficult journey he and his parents Nicole and Ryan Cameron – former Cambridge residents – are facing was first reported in the News a month ago. William, 10 weeks old, had emergency open heart bypass surgery four weeks ago at Auckland’s Starship Hospital after being diagnosed with supravalvular aortic stenosis - a heart condition

National MPs have continued their campaigns for safer roads in Tamahere and Piarere.
Nats make Piarere a priority By Jeremy Smith
Plans for a $570 million Waikato Expressway extension which includes “potentially the most dangerous intersection in the electorate” will be back on the road if National can govern. Opposition leader Todd Muller made the announcement, flanked by National’s Waikato MP Tim van de Molen, Hamilton West MP Tim Macindoe, MP for Hamilton East David Bennett and Taupo MP Louise Upston at a media stand up at Piarere on Friday. The project - first announced by National in 2007 - was cancelled by the Government in 2018 following $5 billion cuts to its state highway budget. If resurrected, the project would see the four-lane Waikato Expressway extended 16km from Cambridge to the intersection of SH1 and SH29 at Piarere. A roundabout will be constructed at the intersection and work would include a median barrier separating traffic, sealed shoulders and grade separated intersections. Ms Upston said the plan for the “notoriously dangerous” piece of road was progressing under National and its cancellation was a “kick in the gut”. “When you look at the roading network between
Auckland, Hamilton and Tauranga it is somewhat of a golden triangle of national significance,” she said. “And that intersection is one of the biggest roading concerns in the electorate.” She estimated that at the intersection of State Highways 1 and 29, about 60 percent of traffic carried along the road on SH1, while 40 percent turned off towards Tauranga on SH29. But that intersection was one of several of concern along the stretch of road, she said – others were the intersection of Karapiro and Hydro roads and Fergusson Gully Rd. She cited Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency (NZTA) figures as showing there have been 62 crashes along that stretch of road in the past eight years, including two deaths. “NZTA says the number of deaths and serious injury crashes on the Cambridge to Piarere corridor is expected to reduce by more than 70 per cent through these improvements.” Following Friday’s announcement, a statement on Hamilton East MP David Bennett’s Facebook page said the expressway extension was a “crucial Waikato investment” that would ease congestion, save lives and create jobs. “It will help bring the country’s most important transport corridor between Auckland, Hamilton and Tauranga up to world-class standard.
“It is critical to the region, the statement said. If elected, National plans to start the project by 2022 – with the three to four-year extension then potentially being finished by 2026.
National Party leader Todd Muller with Waikato MP Tim van de Molen (left), Taupo MP Louise Upston, Hamilton West MP Tim Macindoe and MP for Hamilton East David Bennett at Piarere.
MP takes village plea to committee A parliament select committee has been asked to push the Tamahere community’s call for changes at the village’s highway interchange. Waikato MP Tim van de Molen and James Yearsley, member of the Tamahere Community Committee, made an oral submission to the Transport and Infrastructure Select Committee last week. Van de Molen asked that the House of Representatives urge
Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency (NZTA) to provide the Tamahere community with safer pedestrian and cycle access across the SH1 interchange at Tamahere. “Unfortunately for half the students at Tamahere Model Country School, riding or walking to school is simply too risky for them to attempt and it is our strong view that this is simply not good enough and we are here to ask for a solution for our community”, van
de Molen told the committee. The Waikato Expressway, urban growth and plans for a cycleway have contributed to a significant increase in vehicle, pedestrian and cycle traffic, he said. The interchange sees an average daily traffic volume of 9500 vehicles crossing SH21. The Tamahere Community Committee (TCC) head learned that a safe connection east-west across the expressway and north-south
across SH21 was no longer part of the overall expressway upgrade. As a result, van de Molen launched a petition asking for a crossing to be developed on both the north-bound on-ramp and southbound off-ramp and across SH21. Te Awa says it will provide funding for a cycleway underpass across Airport Road (SH29) effectively achieving half of the petition’s goal.
The committee was told the focus was now on achieving the east-west connection across SH1 as more than half of the communities live on the east side of the expressway and most community facilities are on the west. Yearsley and van de Molen suggested a signal-controlled traffic light crossing at the SH1 off-ramp could be a solution and an underpass for the significantly more dangerous SH1 on-ramp.

Coles recognised for volunteer work By Viv Posselt
Waipā District Councillor and Cambridge volunteer Philip Coles has been recognised in the 2020 Waikato Volunteer Excellence Awards. He was given a commendation in the
Volunteer of the Year Awards, taking third place out of 14 nominees for spending up to 160 hours a month serving Cambridge and Te Miro communities. The citation describes him as “a dedicated and passionate advocate for the Cambridge area”. The awards are hosted annually by
Winter Wonderland calls The horses are making way for a different sport at Cambridge Raceway next week, when a Winter Wonderland, including an indoor ice-skating rink (pictured) comes to town. The 10m by 16m artificial rink is surrounded by inflatable boarding, supplied by Ice Skate Tour which will be at the raceway for four days from Sunday. “We’re really excited to be working with the Cambridge Chamber of Commerce to bring this event to Cambridge for the school holidays,” said Cambridge Raceway’s business development and events coordinator Shannon Bint-Popplewell. “As far as we know it’s the first time an ice-skating rink has been set up in Cambridge.” Bint-Popplewell said their top priority was to create a widely accessible
school holiday event for the community. “We’ve set the price at $5 per skater for a 30-minute session which we think is very reasonable. It was so important to us to provide our community with a fun and affordable school holiday event that the whole family can enjoy.” While the rink will take centre-stage the event will be supported by several Waipā companies, including Layers by Ella Williamson who will be selling cupcakes, Dutch “a” Licious waffles and The
Sunday Society, who are creating a balloon display for photos. The Winter Wonderland at Cambridge Raceway opens at noon Sunday before closing at 6pm for a private event and will then be open from 10am to 6pm from Monday to Wednesday. Hire of skates, helmets and gloves are included in the $5 entry fee, paid at the door – there will be no bookings. It is recommended that those skating come prepared with long thick socks for comfort. Those wishing to bring their own ice skates, gloves or helmets can do so. Gloves must cover all the hand and fingers and skates will be checked to ensure they are satisfactory for use. For more information, go to www.cambridgeraceway. co.nz/winter-wonderland.
Volunteering Waikato and are divided into four categories; Volunteer of the Year (recognising individual achievement), the Long Service Award (for those with 20 or more years’ service), Volunteer of the Year – Youth Award (for those under age 25), and the Team Excellence Award. Philip’s placing was shared in the same category by Glenys Wood, who was nominated by the Hamilton Women’s Ethnic Centre. He was nominated by Destination Cambridge, the organisation he has chaired for the past four years. “It is amazing to be nominated by your peers and recognised for your contribution,” Philip said. “I believe the roles I have and the things that I do make a difference to both individuals and community groups.” Before becoming a Waipā District Councillor, Philip spent nine years on the Cambridge Community Board. He also chairs four boards, sits on a couple of other committees and runs the family farm. The flexibility he enjoys enables him to act as a conduit between the organisations he represents and members of the public who see him around town. He sees that accessibility as vital, and said it enabled him to be an intermediary in the event of questions or conflict. “I see council affairs and governance as being very important, of course, but giving the community a voice is equally important,” he said. Philip gets a real kick from the wide range of work his volunteering entails. Among the highlights he looks back on are his involvement in helping get the St John Health Shuttle off the ground, and last year’s win for Cambridge as the Most Beautiful
Cambridge volunteer Philip Coles with the certificate he received for his commendation in the 2020 Waikato Volunteer Excellence Awards.
Large Town in the Keep New Zealand Beautiful Awards. “I find it unbelievably satisfying. My family has been in this area for over 160 years ... I have a real passion for Cambridge.” Destination Cambridge CEO Miff Macdiarmid said Philip had been a great support to Destination Cambridge and the i-SITE in his volunteer chairman role. “We nominated him for his unwavering support and the countless hours that he contributes, and we’re stoked to see him recognised with his commendation award.” A Te Awamutu runner-up in the Long Service Award category, Bev Kay, died just days after the results were announced.

Change at top for Rotary By Viv Posselt
Faced with the negatives of the Covid-19 fallout and the positives of preparing for a couple of significant anniversaries, new Cambridge Rotary President Bev MaulRogers is taking an agile approach to planning her year in office. Speaking at the late-June changeover in leadership when succeeding Robyn Crickett as club president, Bev said the work plan she intended presenting at the first club meeting of the year would be “a little different to that which I had originally intended”. Fundraisers would need to be initiated to make up for the loss in income due to Covid-19; she suggested that might include more community service projects rather than raising money for granting funds. The next two years mark two anniversaries – the celebration of 100 years of Rotary in Australia and New Zealand, and the Cambridge Club’s 75th anniversary in September 2021. Bev said this district had followed the international lead regarding the response to Covid-19. “Rotary has already been busy in the world through the Covid Disaster Response Grants, so far granting $US5.2M to a range of countries. Our own district has followed on by creating a new approach to our district grants programme for this year. There will be only four grants awarded, one each to a region. Cambridge will collaborate with the Waikato clubs as a co-applicant. The grant will have a single Covid focus and benefit all areas.” She commended outgoing president Robyn Crickett for being creative in keeping club members engaged during a challenging year, saying she had demonstrated calm determination and firm leadership. Robyn put much of her success down to her team. “I was lucky to have a very hard-

FROM THE BOARD
Meeting – in the flesh By Sue Milner, Chairperson, Cambridge Community Board
The Cambridge Community Board met in the Council Cambridge Offices last Wednesday, the first meeting since lockdown that was not a Zoom meeting. It was good to be around the table together. We received a report from the Council’s property manager, including information about the work that is currently being carried out on the Cambridge Town Hall, and also the information that there has been an upgrade of the car park at the Gaslight Theatre. This year marks 20 years of our Cambridge /Le Quesnoy Sister City Relationship. One of the ways that we mark this relationship in Cambridge is our observance of Bastille Day on July 14. The
very hard working Le Quesnoy Committee has planned an interesting programme for the community, including a scavenger hunt with a French theme, French themed decorations in the town centre and a French film night at the Tivoli on July 14th. Our Bastille Day events have been well supported in the past and we hope for the same this year. Deputy Mayor Liz Stolwyk and I will be at the Farmers Market on Sunday from 10am - we will be outside the BNZ and look forward to meeting with you.
Council looks at tree deals

working and dedicated team of directors and officers to lead the club with … and see their areas of service through,” she said, adding that Zoom meetings became the norm during the 11 weeks of lockdown. “The main challenge has been that we were unable to continue with our planned fundraising events, hence we have been unable to hold our normal grants round for community groups due to a lack of funds. All available funds were distributed during the beginning of our Rotary year between July 2019 and February 2020.” The changeover occasion also saw the presentation of a Paul Harris Fellowship to Cambridge’s Andrew Bateman.
Waipā District Council will look at whether or not it can set up legal agreements with individual landowners to help maintain protected trees in the district. The direction to seek legal advice came after protected tree owners gave feedback to councillors at the Strategic Planning and Policy Committee recently. Councillors heard concerns from tree owners worried about a council proposal to set up a protected tree fund to help owners pay for tree maintenance. Across the district, council manages the inspection and
maintenance of 98 protected trees on privately-owned land. The proposed fund would allow council to continue to support protected trees by budgeting $50,000 a year for the work. Tree owners could apply to the fund for financial assistance with tree maintenance if they wished. Council’s community services manager Sally Sheedy said council had previously been advised that legal liability for the trees is with the landowners on privately-owned land. “Legal liability for protected trees on privately-owned land has always been with
the landowners, and historically council has organised inspections and maintained these on our communities’ behalf,” she said. “The proposed protected tree policy will grant protected tree owners the ability to arrange their own inspection and maintenance for trees on their own property and we can continue to support the amenity value these beautiful trees have through a council fund.” Some tree owners have opposed the proposal, arguing council should bear the full cost of protected tree maintenance. BUSINESS SHOWCASE
WE HAVE MOVED Straw Warehouse, on the move, right next door The Straw Warehouse – one of the country’s largest wholesale stockists of farm direct unit loads of fibre products – will operate from a new store as of next week. The business is shifting to a new comprehensive retail store – a “new place right beside our old place” – at 186 Hannon Rd. The new retail store, directly adjacent to the business’ current operation, runs in conjunction with The Straw Warehouse’s farm direct wholesale service. In operation for more than two decades, owner operators Neville and Sandy
Cambridge-based Ag Technology Group is shifting premises. Ogle – with their dedicated staff team of three – have provided a nation-wide customer base with a broad selection of fibre products, ranging from tonne bales down to conventional size bales of hay and straw.
A “local and long-standing relationship” between The Straw Warehouse owners Neville and Sandy Ogle and AG Technology Group’s feed supplement arm, Regal Agriculture, will see the business shift to the Ogle’s Hannon Rd warehouse.
Ag Technology Group owners Andre and Paula Syben attribute the business’ success to loyal, high quality staff and strong and trusted relationships with businesses and companies in Europe, Ireland and the United Kingdom.
Neville said while this year’s drought had affected the supply of retail hay products nationwide, he felt it would be short lived. Supply of bagged products for the horse and lifestyle sectors remains strong.
Over the last 20 years, Ag Technology has grown from a single business providing research, development and engineering services exclusively to German-based CLAAS Group, into a large diversified operation with separate business identities operating under a management team.
AG Technology’s new facility caters for the fast-growing Ag Tech Logistics business, which offers new and existing clients Waipā’s largest managed warehouse facility.
In terms of the calf and kid goat market, Neville encouraged people to consider putting in orders for the upcoming season now. The Straw Warehouse will be based at its new premises from next Monday, July 13. “We look forward to seeing you,” Neville said.

Bastille Day is back French-flavoured activities will take centre stage next week as Cambridge brings back its annual Bonjour Bastille Day fixture and celebrates its sister city link with Le Quesnoy in the process. Bastille Day on Tuesday falls in the middle of the school holidays. Events planned by the CambridgeLe Quesnoy sister city
committee feature a range of activities that kick off with a French-themed Scavenger Hunt for children, games of pétanque, a French movie evening and music by the Cambridge Brass Band. Entry forms for the Scavenger Hunt can be collected now from the Cambridge i-Site, the library, the museum, or downloaded directly from the website:

www.cambridgelequesnoy. co.nz. Completed forms should be dropped into Cambridge i-Site by 5pm on Monday. Bonjour Bastille Day will see several Cambridge shops, cafes, and restaurants focus their attention on French decorations and food – including Panache French Bakery, Deli on the Corner, and Dante’s Fine Foods. Footloose Shoes will give its shopfront a French theme, and Absolute Coffee House will have a French crêpe van on site, with games of pétanque taking place in their café garden around lunchtime. Bastille Day evening will feature a French get-together for adults at Tivoli Cinema, starting at 6.30pm, followed by a choice of two French films, ‘The Belier Family’ or ‘Love at Second Sight’, both starting at 8pm. Tickets are through the cinema (07-823 5064). Cambridge-Le Quesnoy sister city committee members are also keen to hear from any other businesses or groups who are planning something French for Bastille Day, and suggest they share the information and photographs on the committee Facebook page (CambridgeLeQuesnoy).

Motorhomes encouraged to call By Jeremy Smith
Cambridge has become the country’s 56th motorhome friendly town. Deputy Mayor Liz Stolwyk was presented with a certificate and motorhome friendly town signs by the New Zealand Motor Caravan Association’s Waikato chair Michael Cullen at a gathering at Cambridge Town Hall last week. Other association representatives, several councillors, council staff and Destination Cambridge CEO Michelle ‘Miff’ Macdiarmid were among those gathered at the presentation. Mr Cullen said there were multiple benefits to being accredited and the association was taking a “multi-pronged” approach to attract motor home owners to
motorhome friendly towns. “Revitalising responsible motorhome tourism in our 56 towns is paramount,” he said. “One of the myths we hear is that motorhome owners don’t spend money in the towns they visit – but they actually do and so drawing them here to spend in Cambridge will have a big flow on affect.” He said a demographic change was occurring with motorhomes – more young people were buying Destination Cambridge CEO Miff Macdiarmid said accreditation would encourage people to come to Cambridge, stay and spend. Mr Cullen understood motorhome friendly town accreditation was now being looked at in Te Awamutu.

WORD FROM THE HOUSE
Dare to share
NO PLANET B
It’s free: but we don’t use it
By Harriet Dixon, general manager, Cambridge Community House
By Peter Matthews
Right now, volunteers at Cambridge Wood Turners are building Cambridge Community House a pātaka kai - an open pantry sharing shed. Thanks to this local group of enthusiastic woodworkers sharing their skills, this small well-made shed will soon replace the collection of cardboard boxes offering food, out front of our growing Shakespeare Street premises. Since the onset of Covid-19, members of our local community have been using these boxes to share bread, milk, and other necessities with those who need a hand. It’s a simple idea. If you’ve got a little extra, leave it at the pātaka kai. Anyone who needs it can help themselves, no questions asked. This last part is important. Covid-19 has pushed people to the brink financially. For many it is the first time they have had to seek support. It is a tough, humbling experience. No one wants to feel dependent. No one wants to feel like they can’t cope. It takes considerable courage to acknowledge you are struggling and take that first step to ask for help. The pātaka kai bridges the gap. It can help on a hard day, or for a tough week. It will always be easy to access, but it also encourages those who need a bit more help to seek us out. With your support we can see it well stocked and keep people sharing. Unfortunately, I know we’ll need to. We’ve seen demand for the basics rise sharply since March. Our team at Cambridge Community House - many of whom volunteer - filled and distributed some 400 food boxes over the eight or so weeks of lockdown; work we continue to do. Each box satisfies a family of tummies
Back in 2006 some very clever people using some very clever techniques worked out how much solar energy is available here on earth. I haven’t even tried to comprehend the technicalities, but I did get my head around one of the facts presented. More energy, in the form of solar radiation, reaches the surface of the earth in one hour than the entire world uses in one year. That’s not far off 10,000 times more energy available - free - than we use. In 2011, the International Energy Agency said that “the development of affordable, inexhaustible and clean solar energy technologies will have huge longerterm benefits. It will increase countries’ energy security through reliance on an indigenous, inexhaustible, and mostly import-independent resource, enhance sustainability, reduce pollution, lower the costs of mitigating global warming, and keep fossil fuel prices lower than otherwise.” Seems sensible to me. Yet, even though great strides are being made technologically, towards this energy utopia, in practical terms it seems like a long road. Why is this? My guess is that the answer is momentum. Since the Industrial Revolution the wheels of commerce have been powered by fossil fuels. Of course, we now know that fossil fuels represent an inefficient, unhealthy, environmentally damaging approach to power generation, but at the time that’s what was available. In the present day we have the knowledge and ability to generate power from clean, renewable sources but we are still dealing with the massive momentum of the ‘old way’. International corporations have grown, gargantuan fortunes have been made and vast infrastructures have developed around fossil fuels.
for a week. Supplying pantry staples and a few fresh goods puts meals on the table, but it takes ample local support to make it happen. Local organisations, growers and plenty of individuals have all donated fresh groceries and meat, which have helped ensure families can give healthy and wholesome meals to their children. We even managed to give 20 families a rare treat thanks to a donation from Cambridge’s Hell’s Pizza. But reality says we always need more. As winter has set in donations of firewood are keeping 10 families warm. The clear link between warmth and winter wellbeing made donations of winter pyjamas especially welcome. These gifts are keeping some 60 Cambridge children toasty on the coldest nights. These are just some of the donations in kind and much needed cash we receive from our community. Each week we fill our Facebook feed with thanks to the groups who help us out, as well as the individuals who chip in too. We share their stories to show you just how generous your Cambridge community is. We’d love you to share them too. Hearing about donations encourages more people to act, even if it’s simply sharing spare fruit through our pātaka kai. People in our community need your help: what are you ready to share? Donate direct to the BNZ account for Cambridge Community House Trust 020300-0053796-025.
So, there are two reasons why things are not going to change overnight: One is the sheer logistical challenge of deconstructing a system which has developed over the last two hundred years and replacing it with a new one. The other is the aforementioned international corporations. The people in charge of these entities are unlikely to say “OK, looks like the rules have changed, let’s drop everything and spend all the money we’ve got re-inventing ourselves to be clean and green in the next five minutes.” Realistically, neither of those things is going to happen. But look at what is happening. Countries and companies (well, some of them) are recognising the need for action. BP, for one, have declared their ambition to be carbon neutral by 2050. As a company which started in 1908, they have been building their brand on fossil fuels for well over 100 years. Now they have pledged to turn it all around inside 30 years. Granted that may not be soon enough - but it’s a start. In fact, I suspect that the time frame for change will shorten as the impending consequences of inaction become ever more dire. In our own quests, as individuals, to make a difference, let’s not forget that without customers no business can survive. Perhaps we, the consumers, can expedite the changes by supporting businesses which are genuinely committed to being better global and environmental citizens.

How Covid has changed life
Help in making good decisions
The current mix of hard frosts interspersed with frequent rain reminds me that we are (or were recently) in the Fieldays season. It is when town and country come together in numbers approximating 130,000 to gawp, chat, wonder, eat and search for bargains. In excess of 1500 exhibitor sites fill the Mystery Creek valley to delight those attending and to confirm to others that agriculture generally is in good heart. Sadly, this year the ravages and threats of the virus have put paid to the intentions to hold the 52nd Fieldays in its normal layout. Lest any of my friends accuse me of being biased – I plead guilty as charged. It takes many weeks to build the mini-city which on its busiest day usually exceeds 40,000 attendees. And this year the requisite lead-up time to undertake the construction was totally frustrated by the (quite correct) restrictions placed upon the nation. The thoughts of closely mingling enormous crowds was just not going to cut the mustard with the two serious looking lunchtime presenters who kept us up to date during the stringent period. But out of constriction and frustration there is often a lurch towards diversity. And such is the case with Fieldays this year where use of modern skills and thinking outside of the square has produced a screen-fed Fieldays. There is no need to take the slow drive towards the land near the airport. Rather, from next week, distributors and salespeople can interface with the general public with a stroke of a mouse. For those who want to see something innovative and exciting join me on looking at the Fieldays site for the ‘how to’ information. And it is this type of virus driven diversity that is causing a whole re-think
A while ago a friend who worked in an office found himself without his car for the day and needed transport to attend to matters in town. An obliging work colleague threw her car keys to him and said.”You’re welcome to use my car!... it’s the green Volkswagen Beetle in the main carpark.” My friend was grateful for the use of the vehicle and drove around town in the borrowed VW for an hour or so. He was surprised at a very crude and inappropriate bumper sticker that the young lady had on the car and he cringed as he drove! Later, as he handed her back the keys he mentioned it to her. Indignantly she retorted, “My car has no rude bumper sticker on it!” “Yes, it does…”, my friend responded “The green Volkswagen I drove using your keys sure does have that sticker!” Together they went to the carpark to sort out the confusion. It turned out there were two green VW Beetles present in the car park and my friend had driven the wrong one around town for a good hour! The key opened and started both vehicles. So why would you even remotely question if you were driving the right ride? The strange episode illustrates how inadvertently making wrong choices in life is easy. Life is all about decisions. Making good ones can be fraught with a sense of anxiety and indecisiveness. An old story is written about a faithful property manager employed by a wealthy and important man. The manager was entrusted with a challenging duty. He was to travel to the

on the rationale – or sensibility – of carbon emitting dominance of commuting to and from work. Where the kitchen table doubles as an office, where tiny people demanding attention can be accommodated and soothed. Where the necessity not to have boring and time-wasting big-table meetings can be replaced with a number of faces on screens with the production of swifter agreement and a return to normal work much sooner. No lounging at the water bottle nor the coffee machine exchanging needless office gossip. In major cities landlords of large office blocks will no doubt be beseeched by tenants to allow them a smaller footprint. Where a mix of three days at home and two more in the main office will produce larger areas of hot desks and much reduced rents. It will cause the landlords – and prospective bigblock developers - to re-think their usage of high cost downtown land. Yet retailers – especially in Waipā - appear to be holding up. Or at the very least maintaining a status quo judging by the paucity of car parks in the CBD. Our favourite Cambridge restaurant is experiencing two full turns many evenings. Where there is hopefully a swing towards common sense – a revulsion of driving all the way to an ugly big-block development north of Hamilton towards a ‘buy local – think local’ mentality. The good local shops are the ones that we want here next week, next month, next year. It behoves us to have faith in their ability to supply what we desire – even if they have to send away for the article the buyer wants.

boss’s native land and once there, find a wife for the son of this wealthy gentleman. What a responsibility! No dating Apps or computer matching, it was high stakes. Also, he might find a girl who was unimpressed by the precious gifts the servant had loaded the camels with and what if she didn’t want to come back to be a bride to some unknown heir of a wealthy stranger? Finding the wrong woman would be utter disaster and the disgrace of making a wrong selection would be his. So how should he go about making the right choice? He did what some do when faced with a massive high-stake decision. He prayed. Ending a long journey, he approached a certain city early one evening as young ladies were coming out to draw water from a well. His prayer went like this. “I will speak to a beautiful young woman. I’ll say to her, ‘Please lower your jar so I can have a drink.’ Suppose she says, ‘Have a drink of water, and I’ll get some for your camels too.’ If she says that I will know she is the right girl!” It all worked out perfectly. If you read the full story in the Bible (Genesis 24), you’ll see how the manager attributed making his impeccable decision to a humble prayer conferring with God. You can’t go past that in seeking help for making life’s decisions.

Resthaven launches new alert system
Cambridge Resthaven is implementing a three-colour alert system designed to help residents adjust quickly to Covid-19 pandemic changes as they occur. Cambridge Resthaven provides aged care services, including a retirement village and care centre in Vogel St, and the Resthaven on Burns care centre in Leamington. Their Covid-19 working group has established a green-orange-red
MORTGAGE MATTERS
Refinancing Your Mortgage
By Gavin Lynch – Yes Mortgages
Refinancing your mortgage is the process of changing your mortgage lending from your existing lender to a new lender. Refinancing is a common practice for any of these reasons: • You don’t like the lender you are with. You’ve experienced poor service, problems with staff, or high account fees. • You want to borrow more money but the lender won’t allow it. Perhaps you want to consolidate debt, borrow to purchase a rental property or a vehicle, or put working capital into a business. • You have ‘outgrown’ your existing lender and want to move forward. This is common for self-employed people with a growing business, or for investors with an increasing portfolio. • Your lender has asked you to refinance. You may be in arrears with mortgage repayments or you need to restructure your mortgage.
‘traffic light’ system with guidelines and actions for each colour, aimed at enabling residents to respond with agility and efficiency as the situation changes. The provider’s general manager Rachel Jones said the benefits of the three-colour system were not only for use during the current Covid-19 pandemic, but could be useful as a tool for other potential scenarios that may arise in future. “As we all know, during these Covid-19 times there is the potential for the situation to change rapidly, with a requirement to move between alert levels, up or down, very quickly. We’ve all been brought up with the traffic light colour system which is intuitive and an immediate visual prompt that easily translates into clear signage and communications.” Mrs Jones said the system is designed so that residents, families, staff and visitors will be able to easily identify what happens at each colour. “If Covid-19 comes into the local area, we may have to switch regularly between colour levels. We will make decisions based on the situation and want to be able to switch as quickly as possible after we make the decision to change with complete lockdown (our red level) occurring if there is a government-instructed lockdown for aged care facilities.” She said keeping Covid-19 out of Resthaven and protecting the wellbeing of residents and staff was of the utmost importance. “We are a community trust and have been part of the community for many years, so we are continually looking at adapting.”

Refinancing can involve costs such as break fees from the existing lender, solicitors’ fees, valuation charges etc, but we can help get cash contributions from your new lender to help offset these costs. At Yes Mortgages, we can outline the costs involved and find the best new lender to fit your current situation from the 25 or so different lenders available. In most instances, our service is FREE to you. Generally the benefits of refinancing outweigh the costs involved but bear in mind: Refinancing your mortgage must benefit and add value to YOU.

Race venues set
The Waipā Racing Club has been excluded from next season’s racing calendar. Four venues were given a reprieve by the Racing Industry Transition Agency (RITA) when the calendar was finalised last week. They were Avondale, Manawatu, Timaru and Dunedin’s Forbury Park. Te Awamutu, Gisborne, Orari, Stratford, Te Teko, Waikouaiti, Waimate, Waipukurau, Wairoa and Wyndham missed the cut. The New Zealand Herald reported the decision to restore racing at those venues was the result of “submissions, threats of legal action or for the betterment of ongoing negotiations will now race next term”. Had Manawatu not been retained, there would have been no harness racing in the North Island south of Cambridge.
Council will set a buy-local example The Waipā District Council is actively promoting a ‘contribute locally’ policy as it works to support the economic recovery of Waipā following the COVID-19 lockdown. It recently agreed on a procurement strategy to source and deliver all goods, works and services provided by or for the Council. It covers everything from simple and straightforward purchases to complex, high-risk projects. With an economic recession forecast to last up to three years, Council has been looking at ways it can assist in resetting and rebuilding the Waipā economy. To assist with the rebuild, Council wants to more actively support Waipā businesses. Procurement advisor Adele Bird said supporting a sustainable and thriving economy benefits the whole community. Contributing to the local economy through the investment in goods and services had to be considered alongside the overall costs and benefits of goods and services received, she said.
“One of the main benefits of supporting local businesses is that they are more likely to survive, expand, innovate, train and invest. “As part of our tender evaluations we will be looking at how suppliers contribute to local training and employment, provide supply chain opportunities to maximise local economic input, and support local manufacturers and businesses that source goods manufactured locally.” Council will also be encouraging other organisations where possible to support local. Event organisers will be encouraged to use local businesses and suppliers when planning events in the district. “In the end it’s all about maximising every opportunity to encourage the employment local people, involvement in our communities and investment in our district.” A local supplier is considered a supplier of goods or services that employs people located within the Waipā district boundary or rents premises in the district.
Reserves counts the cost
Maungatautari’s Ecological Island Trust says the sanctuary missed out on more than $90,000 in revenue during the Covid lockdown. The reserve on Mt Maungatautari, the country’s biggest ecological mainland sanctuary, was closed for
almost 60 days. Chief Executive Phil Lyons said in that time about 3200 visitors would usually have gone through the gates. All staff were retained during the lockdown and the trust made use of the Government wage subsidy.

Date set for Kiwibank, PostShop split
Kiwibank will fly solo in Waipā from August13. The bank split from PostShop to establish a standalone branch in Cambridge last July, and is soon to do the same in Te Awamutu. In Cambridge PostShop moved most of its postal operations to Paper Plus. NZ Post this week announced it will follow suit - postal services and bill payments will also go to Paper Plus, in Arawata Street.
Kiwibank’s General Manager, Retail, Geoff Waller said the bank had seen a customer preference shift from bricks and mortar sites to digital banking options but was committed to providing faceto-face Kiwibank services in Te
Awamutu. Branch opening hours will be 9am-4.30pm Monday to Friday. The separation of Kiwibank and PostShop was flagged in 2018 and NZ Post closed about 30 branches it shared with Kiwibank.

Netball set to resume
Leamington has made a sound start to the new season’s netball campaign, but it was already a player down when the Cambridge premier competition started last night. Goal Attack Lauren Brennan has picked up an injury which is expected to sideline her for a while. The Cambridge premier grade competition launched with eight teams last night. In grading games Leamington scored wins over NUSC Pulse, TVP and Hautapu Development, after being beaten 32-26 in their opening clash with Hautapu Premiers. The club also has premier reserve and social teams competing in the Saturday competition, which starts on July 25. Meanwhile Netball Waikato Bay of Plenty has dates for its Wintec Talent Identification Roadshow. The roadshows looks at talent in a space that would usually fit within representative tournaments, which have been cancelled this year due to COVID-19. It’s also an opportunity for players who do not play for their school but play club to show their skills. The roadshows will be at Cambridge High School at the end of August.

Champs stay unbeaten Strength in reserve
Hautapu made it two from two – but remain second on the Waikato premier rugby club ladder after Saturday’s matches. Otorohanga, yet to have a bye, stayed in front with a three from three record ahead of last night’s midweek fixtures, which were played after this edition went to press. Resurgent Te Awamutu was sitting in third after its second win in three outings. Hautapu had a bye in the first week because Matamata has withdrawn from the premier competition this season as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. The unbeaten champions from 2019 hit the 40-point mark for the second week in a row when dispatching Marist 46-10. The match against last year’s semi-finalists was the first at home for Hautapu. The weather was perfect for afternoon rugby and spectators were treated to some great tries and extended passages of play. The Hautapu premier team’s forward pack and powerful ball carriers in the backline proved too strong for a spirited Marist side. The first half produced some exciting rugby with both sides moving the ball across the park, unfortunately the second half was disrupted by a rising penalty count for both sides. Hautapu played last season’s finalists Fraser tech on Wednesday night ahead of another tough encounter on Saturday against Otorohanga.
Otorohanga beat Morrisville 48-25 – a week after Morrinsville had been beaten at home, narrowly, by Te Awamutu. Only University had still to get off the mark – though it was one of three teams to have had bye. Matamata lead the Premier B table with a three from three record, followed by Otorohanga and Hautapu, who are two of six teams – including Te Awamutu –with two wins and loss. Leamington and Hinuera have set the pace in Division 1, with three wins from three. Ohaupo have two wins from three, while Pirongia has managed a solitary draw.

Hautapu Development continued their winning streak with a 51-27 win over a tough Marist unit. The match saw a dozen tries scored and the lead change several times in the first half. For Hautapu, the results were evidence of week-by-week improvement and puts the side in good stead ahead of a challenging trip to Otorohanga this weekend. Marist actually led 12-7 at one point, but the stage appeared to be set by half time when Hautapu was up 28-15. But Marist took advantage of the situation after Hautapu made good of a couple of chances, and when the home side gave away a series of penalties they were warned by the referee about the continued infringements from Hautapu. Marist scored twice in this period, with only one successful conversion, 28 – 27 to Hautapu. The home side rallied behind the post and it was a different team in the last 30 minutes, scoring a series of tries to race away with the game.

Blues overcome yellows…
Leamington came from behind to beat Frankton 43-27 and stay top of the Division1 Waikato Club rugby table on Saturday – despite spending plenty of time a player short. The home side was 27-12 down with 20 minutes to go – but stormed back with an unanswered four converted tries and a penalty. The Senior A’s hosted Frankton in a physical and enthralling game which saw the home side lead early thanks to tries to Hayden Ivil and James Fraser. But when Leamington second five Adin Bolton was yellow carded the visitors made the most of their advantage, scoring two tries. Further yellow cards for Sam Monkley and Ethan Wildgoose kept the Leamington team under pressure and Frankton were ahead 27-12 with 20 minutes to play. Player of the day Geoff Beaumont, Josh Mackay (two) and Trent Goodwin crossed the line as Leamington fought back. Leamington won the corresponding Senior B clash 56-12. Scorers were C. Neels, 2, J Nelson, 2, L. Reichardt, J. Mita, J Monkley,
F. Schumaker and J. Heaslip. Kade Ormsby kicked three conversions. Leamington U21s remain unbeaten and scored nine tries on their way to an entertaining 57-5 win over Morrinsville U21s. Leamington’s dominant forward pack laid the platform with a solid set piece and strong ball carries that gave the Blue and Whites plenty of momentum. Joint players of the day Eli Waetford and Sam Monkley were particularly impressive with ball in hand and on defence. This allowed Leamington’s exciting backline to get plenty of front foot ball. First five Keegan Dicky continued the excellent form he has displayed so far this season and Keegan Harris was dangerous every time he touched the ball. Leamington’s bench all made an impact, in particular forward Leyton Penu, who thrived in defence and at the breakdown. Next weekend the U21’s have a bye, followed by an away game against Southern United. The Leamington Carricks Financial Partners under 85Kg team scored an excellent 22-21 win at University
Stags in another match where yellow cards played a role. Leamington, with only three reserves, raced to a 12-0 lead by trailed 14-12 at the break. The second half saw both sides enjoy periods of dominance, and huge hits across the park as scoring chances went begging. With 10 minutes to go, Leamington camped down on the Stags’ 22 for a series of phases before Nick Bolger crashed over under the posts, carrying four University players with him. Lewis Meerkerk’s conversion had the Leams up 19-14 but from the restart, Leamington received a yellow card and were down to 14 men. After absorbing a huge amount of pressure, Leamington was rewarded with what provide a vital penalty kicked by Meerkerk. University sought back with a try which was converted just as the final whistle went. Fixture this weekend: Senior A and B play Taupiri, the Colts have a bye, the Under 85Kg are home to Hamilton Marist and the Presidents are away to Taupiri tomorrow night.

Know your Real Estate Buying and selling: the numbers are rising The Covid-19 pandemic interrupted a strong period of growth in Waipā, so it was no suprise to see both the real estate and building markets respond positively to the end of the lockdown. The News has already reported that Waipā’s construction industry is building towards preCovid-19 levels. Building consents – both those applied for and granted – in the district are on the up. Consistently since the end of the lockdown the News has monitored lifts in business for industry, calls for international flights to return to Hamilton Airport and on the home front, a swing to retaining a level of working
from home which was initially imposed on the country.
The median house price in Waikato rose to a shade under $600,000 – their highest ever - in the year to May. In Waipā the median was $700,000 – compared to $585.000 12 months earlier, though sales were down from 95 to 44.
It was a full month ago that we reported a “new life in real estate” as ex-pats and first-time home buyers joined the buyers’ market. Covid will have a long tail – it takes 10 days longer for property to sell in the present environment - but there are positive signs. For buyers and sellers in Waipā the stars are lining up. Mortgage rates are low, and the region is becoming an increasingly attractive destination – particularly as the Waikato Expressway nears completion. Development in the district is also being driven by the Waipā District Council,
whose mayor Jim Mylchreest resisted calls to hold rates this year. The council has gone for a 2.4 per cent rise, down from the pre-Covid recommendation of 4.2 Mylchreest argued against
the district standing still for Covid saying “spending on capital programmes is a really important part of economic recovery because these projects create jobs, necessary infrastructure for growth and future revenue”.
In its latest report released mid-June, the Real Estate Institute of New Zealand said here had been a good uplift in sales activity from April to May, with 15 out of 16 regions across the country seeing triple figure percentage increases in their month-on-month sales. For all the damage caused by Covid, the property market in Waipā appears to be robust enough to bounce back, and quickly.
First time buyer? There is no shortage of help available for first time home buyers in Waipā – the region is admirably served by a family of real estate agencies, and there is also help available online.
The Real Estate Authority is an independent government agency which regulates the real estate industry. It provides advice and information at settled.govt.

Vital game looms for Reds
Cambridge face their most important match of football’s Northern League season when they host Aucklanders Greenhithe Catimba this weekend. After three rounds of the Lotto NRFL, the Reds are winless and at the foot of the second division table. The only other team without a victory are Greenhithe and Saturday’s match at John Kerkhof Park (3pm) is shaping as vital for both clubs, with the loser coming adrift at the bottom of the competition. Cambridge’s results have all been close and their latest loss was by a single goal at Hibiscus Coast last Saturday. The Aucklanders went 1-0 up in the 27th minute through Tyler Agiovlassitis. That’s how it stayed till full-time, giving the Reds their third successive loss by a onegoal margin. The reserves fared no better, losing the curtain-raiser 3-2 to Hibiscus Coast, despite leading 2-0 at half-time with goals from Aston Hurd and Tom Woutersen. In the WaiBOP Championship, Cambridge drew 1-1 at home to Tokoroa in a hardfought match. Cambridge took a first half leader through Aaron Huesser and appeared to be in control when Tokoroa went down to 10 men after a player received two yellow cards. But Tokoroa came back with a late goal from the penalty spot to force Cambridge to share the points. Cambridge remain in third place after the match. In Waikato Division 2, Cambridge beat Melville United 2-0, thanks to a double from
experienced forward Jason Szabo. Coach Chris Petropoulos said the win was his team’s best performance of the season far and he gave Szabo the Player of the Day for his all-round performance and for his spectacular second goal. In Waikato Division 5, Cambridge D1s lost 6-1 to Northern United with the Cambridge goal scored from the penalty spot by Nick Sickelmore. The D2 team drew 1-1 with West Hamilton United in another match in which penalties proved decisive. Cambridge took the lead through a Daniel Cattley penalty and West Ham levelled when they scored a rebound from a penalty saved by the Cambridge ‘keeper. The D2s had the chance to win the match when awarded two more penalties – both of which they missed. In the Waikato Women’s Division 2, Cambridge beat Unicol Rovers 6-0 at John Kerkhof Park to register their best win of the season so far. Goals were scored by Sophie Young (2), Astrid Howarth (2), Georgia Methven and captain Steph Upton. In the WaiBOP Federation Y-League, Cambridge U-14s lost 2-0 at home to competition leaders Rotorua. Cambridge’s Player of the Day was Theo Susilla. In the WaiBOP J-League, Cambridge easily beat Western United 13-1 at Ngaruawahia. Cambridge’s scorers were Oscar Gifford (3), Luke Brooke-Smith (3), Jesse Macdonald (2), Gethyn Foster (2), Jaxson Makgill (2) and Oliver Rickiet.

Lacrosse returns Leamington Rugby Sports Club has hosted the first lacrosse game since Covid-19 lockdown. Members of Te Awamutu Lacrosse team joined Leamington for a friendly against Auckland’s Ponsonby Lacrosse team. However, once word got out both teams were joined by players from Auckland’s Wild Cats and Eastern Chiefs teams and Waikato teams Matangi Mustangs and Suburbs Lacrosse Teams. Both teams had players who not only represent their local teams but are members of the national men’s senior and Under-18
teams. Leamington has two 18s internationals, Alistair Hearmon and Blake Anderson and one member of the men’s Squad, Alex Warrington. With some suspect fitness levels, rusty stick skills and a huge dose of team spirit, a great game was had by all. The team will be travelling to Auckland Nixon Park next week for round two.

By Jeremy Smith
Cambridge High School scored a unique gift last week. Former student turned All Blacks and Chiefs player Luke Jacobson – accompanied by teammate Atu Moli, of the same accolades, - paid a flying visit to present some of the school’s girls rugby players with a specially designed signed pink Women in Rugby jersey. It was one of 23 worn by the playing squad when the Gallagher Chiefs recently took on the Highlanders in Dunedin. The jerseys from that
game – part of the first round of Super Rugby Aotearoa played post Covid-19 - were a way to acknowledge women who play or support rugby. They are now being donated to schools around the Chiefs’ region to help them fundraise towards sports equipment, travel or apparel for their respective girls’ rugby teams. Cambridge High School is one of three Waipā schools – alongside Te Awamutu College and Ōtorohanga College – named to receive jerseys. The high school’s director of sport and culture Guy Ockenden said the players’
visit was an enjoyable one. He said it was a good opportunity for the girls to talk “all things rugby” with some of their sporting role models. During their visit, Jacobson and Moli took the opportunity to discuss with the school’s players what it was they most enjoyed about the game and encouraged the students to chase their dreams. “I can assure you, plenty of selfies were taken,” said Ockenden, confirming staff were now discussing what would be done with the jersey long term, but a final decision had not been made.

Yearbury in poll position By Andy McGechan
The 2020 New Zealand Enduro Championships will wrap up their abbreviated season near Bulls this weekend with a Waipā rider well placed. The unwelcome arrival of the Coronavirus Covid-19 pandemic forced a late start to the Yamaha-sponsored New Zealand Enduro Championships this season and riders, sponsors and supporters were probably just happy to be able to race at all this year. Motorcycling New Zealand did remarkably well to formulate a compact four-round competition, staged over two separate weekends, and the riders have responded by showing up in good numbers. The condensed competition means racing has been particularly intense this season, with increased pressure to perform adding to the stress of this already demanding sport and the elimination of mistakes even more vital. Rounds one and two were held in Masterton and Martinborough respectively last month, and this weekend it will be rounds three and four, both days of racing to be run over courses laid out in the Santoft Forest, near Bulls. “The track is looking great,” said Motorcycling New Zealand enduro commissioner, Central Enduro Series co-ordinator and Kapi-Mana Motorcycle Club enduro co-ordinator Justin Stevenson, of Porirua.
“The distances that the riders will travel this weekend will be shorter than the previous two rounds, about 130 kilometres each day in the forest this weekend, but it will be extremely hard going in the sand. “It would probably help if there’s a bit of rain there before the weekend.” Cambridge’s Dylan Yearbury has a narrow lead over Whanganui’s defending national champion Seth Reardon after the opening two rounds, with 2019 125cc Youth Enduro GP World Champion Hamish Macdonald, from Christchurch, in third position overall. Three other riders hold a share of fourth overall – Helensville’s Tom Buxton, Raglan’s Jason Dickey and Manawatu’s Paul Whibley – and any of these riders too could spring a surprise and win the title overall if they dominate in the sandy Santoft Forest this weekend. Others who might fancy their chances of winning this weekend include Wainuiomata’s multi-time national trial champion Jake Whitaker, Whangamata’s Jason Davis, Oparau’s James Scott and Rotorua’s Bradley Lauder. Others to watch out for include Thames rider Natasha Cairns, Eketahuna’s Charlie Richardson, Stratford’s Josh Hunger, Kaikohe’s Mitchell Nield, Raglan’s Brandon Given and perhaps even Taupo’s rising young star Wil Yeoman.

Whichever one of Cambridge High School’s six new school houses scores “top house” this year, the winning result will be thanks to the efforts of not just the champion athlete or swimmer, but also the champion TikTok-er. Or the champion quizmaster. Or the champion videogamer. Or even, as was the case during last week’s “last card” tournament, the champion cardplayer. CHS revised their pastoral care system at the end of last year, building it around a brand new set of school houses and form classes that tied into stories from the Cambridge community. Now, the school is designing a far more diverse calendar of house events, adding general knowledge quizzes and video game competitions to established events like athletics or swimming sports. “The motivation has been to try and give all students an opportunity to feel like they can contribute to their House,” Marcel Kuijpers, an assistant principal at the school said. “Not everyone is sports focused so we are trying to offer a variety of events.” Existing events are also being incorporated into the new calendar. Te Wiki O Te Reo Māori (Māori week), which was held last week, from June 28 to July 3, is now also a house competition.
The week brought together events from a group Waiata on the Monday to Ki O Rahi games on the Thursday and Friday, to a Hangi to finish the week off. Paige Connon, an organizer at Te Hunga Taikaka, CHS’ Māori culture group, said “Te Wiki O Te Reo Māori has been going on at this school for quite a number of years now. But this is the first year it’s actually a house competition.” “We’re really trying to push awareness of Te Ao Māori at the school,” she said. Events open to the whole school - like
Te Wiki O Te Reo Māori - now offer equal amounts of house points. “Compulsory events like Athletics Days will tend to have the greatest weighting but we don’t want events like this to determine who will ultimately win a term or year,” Mr Kuijpers said. Mr Kuijpers said house event participation was up on previous years, but that building a following for the events was still a “work in progress.” “After having less focus on the House structure in the past few years it will take a bit of time to get students more involved on a regular basis,” he said.

This position will be a 10-15 hour a week role, but the hours will be flexible and often determined by the timing of events and the availability of contacts. It is expected the successful applicant will have had experience in working in media. This is an all-rounder position – the successful applicant will generate stories and be adept at reworking supplied copy and assist with proof reading. This position will require the reporter to be out in the field regularly, but also able to work collegially with a small team of sales and layout staff. Applicants for this position must have NZ residency or a valid NZ work visa. You will need a reliable vehicle and a clean driver’s licence. We offer a competitive freelance hourly rate based on the skills and experience of the successful applicant. Application close date: Monday July 31, 2020. If this sounds like the role for you, please email your C.V. and letter of application to Roy Pilott, Good Local Media Ltd on editor@goodlocal.nz
