Telling our stories with schoolteachers before going on to craft online sessions that were deliverable via Zoom. He continues to work closely with schools to create programmes based on what unit standards they are seeking to support using the online resources.

The success of the new strategies, and the fact the sessions have been utilised by schools outside the region, has excited Kerrin about how technology might enhance the museum’s education programmes in the

By Viv Posselt

New Zealand’s Covid-19 lockdown kicked in a month after Kerrin Carr took up his new position as education facilitator at Te Awamutu Museum.

It meant halting the face-to-face delivery of the Learning Experiences Outside the Classroom (LEOTC) programmes he was just getting accustomed to and devising a strategy that would facilitate the sharing of information with school students aged 5-18 during lockdown.

Fortunately, Kerrin’s background in media – he wrote and voiced radio ads for years – plus what he has gleaned from his own kids and educators within his family, gave him the tools he needed to re-create and expand the museum’s existing digital resources.

“We launched into creating a new set of resources, based on what we already had, but presenting it in an interactive magazinestyle format where the school kids could ask questions and do activities,” he said. “I didn’t want the presentations to be too textheavy.”

Junior and senior resources for Anzac Day were among those which went out during lockdown. The Anzac stories were there, and younger children were shown how to make a wreath from poppies. “Some of it was like infographics. Just before lockdown, I did something similar related to a visit to Pirongia maunga – that was my first programme in this role, and it worked really well.”

Another set of resources Kerrin worked on during lockdown is based on the museum’s ‘In Days Past’ series. He also did a Zoom session on the New Zealand Land Wars for senior high school students, one that included expert-led discussions around the causes and consequences of the wars.

Knowing what students required and what gaps would need plugged over the weeks of lockdown saw Kerrin touch base

future.

“I’m keen to tell Waipā’s stories,” he said.

“They have always had amazing educators at this museum, but now that everyone is more familiar with the digital arena than they were before lockdown, there are new opportunities out there.

“Familiarity with Zoom means we can expand our delivery … we can offer wider access to the material we have in hand. It makes the information more accessible,” he

Te Awamutu Museum’s education facilitator, Kerrin Carr, thinks the digital skills honed during lockdown offer new opportunities to tell Waipā’s stories.

said. “The only downside is that the students can’t touch things, or do activities in the moment, but it does allow us to ‘deep dive’ into material and bring experts on board.”

Kerrin believes that what has come out of the lockdown is an opportunity for the museum to be more innovative in the way it delivers its education programme.

“So, while we’re back to normal now, we can build on those opportunities and add value to our stories.”

Resource available On May 31, 2007, the Te Awamutu Wheelchair Wagon Trust was registered with the aim of getting people out of their homes so that they can go about their business and enjoy their lives.

The service is mostly used to transport those who are mobility impaired from where they live, be it from a care facility, retirement village or their own home, to Church, Doctor’s and Dental appointments, Chemists, Opticians, Hearing Aid clinics and other Health Professionals. The wagon can be used for transport to family homes and functions.

In fact anywhere that transport is required.

The wheelchair wagon usually operates Monday to Friday 9am to 4pm within an area bounded by Kihikihi, Pirongia, Ohaupo and Te Kawa. It is available on Saturday and Sunday by appointment.

For those who use a walker and do not have a wheelchair, the wagon has a wheelchair to use.

The Trust is a non-profit entity and relies on donations to cover running expenses. All of the drivers and helpers are volunteers and the Trust could always do with more. Bookings can be made by contacting the Wheelchair Co-Ordinator on 871 3129 or 021 0882 1879.

Pieces of eight The New Zealand Taxpayers Union has revealed that Waipā District Council is allocating up to eight percent of total build costs for iwi engagement for Covid-19 response projects.

These are shovel ready projects, so why the potential deception or veil of secrecy of inflating projects that have already been finalised and do not require any further consultation - is it just to give iwi money for nothing?

I am sure the people of Waipā would like to know who is behind this disturbing act that is costing both ratepayers and taxpayers profoundly for no benefit at all - it is like we are being charged twice.

once covered New Zealand. But over the past 150 years, more than 90 per cent of the nation’s wetlands have been drained for crops and farmlands. Which makes this unique local remnant very special.

The reserve was fenced off in 1980 by the then owner Mr Sandy Yarndley, and was later purchased by the Waipa District Council in 1992. In conjunction with the Kiwanis Club of Te Awamutu (who contributed more than 700 hours of labour) the reserve was officially opened in 1995.

Today, a boardwalk winds past large kahikatea root buttresses and regenerating native plants which cover the forest floor.

Halfway along the loop, there is a viewing platform that gives a bird’s-eye-view of the surrounding forest and a small seating area for young kids to rest their legs and soak up the view. On windy days don’t miss lying on the platform and watching the trees swaying and making spooky sounds above you.

Further along the track look out for kōura and tuna (eels) in the small stream, before following the winding boardwalk as it passes some towering kahikatea – some more than 35 metres tall.

Kahikatea are the country’s tallest native

tree and can often be seen poking through the forest canopy. They existed during the Jurassic period, and flying dinosaurs probably swooped down and munched on their fleshy seeds.

Facilities: No toilets.

Walking: Allow 30 to 45 min to complete the loop walk.

Accessibility: This is an easy walk on boardwalk, grass and dirt paths. Near the walk entrance there is a moderately steep grassed loop.

The walk is suitable for buggies although there is a tight gate entrance to navigate.

Dogs must be on leads.

How to get there: Between Hamilton and Te Awamutu turn off SH3 onto Ngaroto Road. The entrance is 1.5 kilometres on the left, however the car park is a further 180 metres on the right.

On the beat Another wins for support with Ryan Fleming

I thought this week I would share a good work story. And if you are wondering, yes, it does relate to Neighbourhood Support, but there is a reason why I write about it so frequently; It works.

Last week our new Commsafe Coordinator Mandy was delivering flyers and about to go to a Neighbourhood Support meeting. She saw two males walking and carrying some property. Her suspicions were further aroused when one of males dropped an item and continued running. She rang 111 and followed them to an address nearby. Due to her calling 111 Police were able to act quickly.

This little snippet of our working day highlights just how important Neighbourhood Watch actually is.

On Tuesday I took part in a traffic stop on Paterangi Road checking on child restraints. We conducted this at about the

time of the school bus run and sadly we did pick up a few people who had children not seated appropriately.

Our children are our greatest asset and no child should be seated unrestrained or in inadequate child restraints. If you are a family struggling for funding for child restraints I urge you to approach Plunket or come to the Police station and we can put you in touch with a trust that provides assistance in these matters.

This week I would also like to acknowledge two members of the Community Patrol who are retiring from the patrol and moving to warmer climes.

Stuart and Mary Hampton we all wish you the very best in your move and you have left the patrol in good stead, the next coordinators have large shoes to fill.

Union ridicules ‘taniwha tax’ Waipā District Council has budgeted to pay iwi up to eight percent of the $25 million cost of its proposed shovel ready projects.

The money has been allocated as a percentage of the total build costs for Covid-19 response projects.

Of the $25.5 million budgeted, $3.76m is set aside for council costs, including iwi engagement, communications, governance and internal staff time.

A joint bid for funds was made by Waipā, Hamilton City and Waikato District Councils for 23 shovel ready projects.

Council has defended the proposed budget after it was highlighted by the New Zealand Taxpayers Union.

“Greasing up local iwi so they agree to shoo away taniwha really isn’t necessary, especially for minor cases like the Council’s proposal,” Union executive director Jordan Williams said.

“These projects aren’t major builds, they’re community facilities. Ratepayers are especially feeling the pinch right now and a taniwha tax cannot be justified.”

Nine iwi - Nga Iwi Toopu o Waipa, Waikato Tainui, Ngāti Koroki Kahukura, Ngāti Haua, Ngāti Maniapoto, Ngāti Raukawa, Ngāti Apakura, Ngāti Hikairo and Ngāti Mahanga are listed as being iwi Waipā District Council consults with.

The News attempted to get comment from Waikato

Tainui, Ngāti Haua and Ngāti Koroki Kahukura but had not been able to when this edition went to press.

The Council’s strategy and community services manager Debbie Lascelles said the eight percent was not an across the board figure and would be assessed on a case by case and project by project basis.

She said iwi engagement may include actions such as co-design and governance of projects, assessment of cultural impacts and how these could be avoided or mitigated and monitoring projects to ensure they carried out in a manner consistent with identified cultural values.

She said the shovel ready application, filed jointly with

for an assisted death in the Netherlands late last year.

Chairing the debate was Robin Astridge.

Standing for the Act was retired Waikato Hospital intensive care specialist Jack Havill, and registered nurse and director of the Family Planning Unit in Hamilton, Jan Gilby. Both belong to the End-of-Life Choice Society of NZ. Speaking against it was church minister Rev Heather Major and her daughter Rachel, 18, who read out a speech she gave outside Parliament last year. On the same team was Dr Lara Hoskins, a palliative care physician at Waikato Hospital and Hospice Waikato, and an advocate for advancing palliative

care education.

Interest in the topic has been heightened with the recent arrival in post-boxes of election material, including brochures on the two referenda on the ballot – the End of Life Choice referendum, and one on the legislation and control of cannabis. ACT leader David Seymour’s End of Life Choice Act has been passed by Parliament, but only comes into force if more than half of New Zealand voters tick ‘yes’ in the upcoming referendum.

Both teams involved in the debate related their personal stories on the issue. Heather and Rachel Major spoke about their late husband and father, Glenn, who died at age 42 of a brain tumour, eight years after being initially diagnosed.

Heather said research showed clinicians’ diagnoses were often wrong, adding that many individuals did not realise they were currently able to end their suffering, either by refusing medical treatment or opting for a ‘do not resuscitate’ order. The bill did not offer sufficient safeguards in terms of public health, she said.

Dr Lara Hoskins said most

Hamilton City and Waikato District councils, had to be submitted quickly.

“The shovel ready projects are a cluster of high-level projects – some of which are not consented yet and we don’t have the finer details for.

“We had a short time to complete the proposal and we had to set the budget. I wouldn’t expect us to spend that eight percent in each and every situation.

Many of the projects necessitated partnership and engagement with iwi and mana whenua to ensure Council meets its Treaty of Waitangi-related requirements under the Local Government Act. She couldn’t comment on

Debbie Lascelles

what percentage other councils had ear-marked – though they were all legally required to include iwi engagement in the process “Let’s be really clear, we have a legal, moral and cultural responsibility to consult local iwi, and its and integral part of the process.”

Divided opinion at end of life choice debate

By Viv Posselt

Differing opinion on the proposed assisted dying legislation characterised a lengthy public debate on the End of Life Choice Act in Te Awamutu last weekend.

The July 25 event drew well over 100 people. It was facilitated by the Te Awamutu Methodist Church in the lead-up to the End of Life Choice referendum being held as part of September’s national election. TA Methodist Church minister Shelley Walker said the issue needed to be discussed openly in order for people to make an informed decision in September. Co-organising the debate was Pirongia’s Nynke Piebenga, whose sister elected

palliative care doctors or those caring for the dying oppose euthanasia or assisted suicide, despite reflecting a wide diversity of religions and ethnicities.

She feared patients would feel ‘pressured’ to opt for an assisted death, and said people were more likely to consider assisted dying to avoid being a burden rather than because of pain.

In advancing support for the bill, Jan Gilby outlined the points highlighted in the referendum brochure and said: “The biggest issue in this Act is personal choice. I believe there is enough security in the Act … as human beings, we should have the right to make a personal choice around assisted dying.”

Retired intensive care spe-

cialist Jack Havill said even with the best palliative care a small number of patients “will suffer unbearably”, and this legislation would offer those individuals the option to decide for themselves when to end it.

He said four times as many people die in rest homes as they do in hospices, and suggested hospice support to rest homes should be increased to offer a more integrated approach.

“The majority of New Zealanders support choice for people with terminal illness, and New Zealanders increasingly value autonomy in their medical plans. They get great comfort in knowing they have permission to make a decision around assisted dying if they need it.

FAITH IN WAIPĀ

THE AGE OF REASON

The world of politics

Seek and you will find…

By Murray Smith, Senior Leader, Bridges Church

By Peter Carr

After a tumultuous few days in and around the Beehive perhaps we can all now settle down to what we would hope is normal living.

It has never been a secret that parliament is riven with people involved in social peccadillos.

Those of a more advanced age will recall the 1960’s shenanigans in the UK parliament which resulted in the withdrawal of a senior government minister. Later in life, in a private capacity, that minister went on to undertake excellent work in the poorer parts of the British community.

It was at that time that a notorious London based operator, on the edge of the medical world, became involved with those in high political (and other) offices.

At his trial, he embraced the views of a saintly person of the same Christian name.

In the year 36AD St Stephen (immediately prior to his enforced death), uttered the phrase that essentially forgave his persecutors.

It’s something to think about when in post-Christmas mode we remember that our traditional calendar Boxing Day is also St Stephen’s Day in the Anglican church.

Which turns me to bringing up the forthcoming election. As there are a number of both old and new aspirants clamouring for your vote on September 19, it would be pertinent to recall that the life towards which they are voluntarily about to subject themselves has a number of unusual parts.

Not the least of which is (for most) an enforced culture of living conditions entirely alien to their normal home life. And in some cases placing themselves on imaginary pedestals while being open to social mores

contrary to their normal experiences.

Around 1984 I was approached by a political party chairman to stand in my (then) Wellington electorate.

We agreed that I would ponder this over the forthcoming weekend and that the conversation would not be broadcast in any way until such time as I had given him my formal answer. I admit that the idea sounded attractive – especially as I would not have to live away from my home.

But, low and behold, on the Monday following the weekend I found out that he had not kept his word and that my possibly electioneering offer was plastered in the city’s newspaper prior to the weekend.

That resulted in my immediate response that not all those in the political spectrum are to be trusted - and I had no choice but to inform him somewhat forcefully that I would not break bread with him at any stage.

The parliamentary press gallery has an interesting view on the social behaviour (or misbehaviour) of elected politicians.

In a way I think I understand that stance.

However, when once entertaining a number of press gallery devotees, I asked the question why the well-known social antics of the then Prime Minister were not called across the floor of the House in a safe and non-suable environment.

The answer was terse. Because (and I quote) ‘He has more in his book on them than they have on him’. Says it all really.

Very sad but it will no doubt continue for a long time to come.

Ancient Discoveries FAct or Fiction?

A church leader was walking along a residential street when a random thought suddenly came to mind. The thought was to quote out loud one of the best-known lines in the Bible. He resisted the thought briefly, but the impression intensified that he must respond promptly and quote the verse out loud…in spite of feeling a bit foolish, he did so.

The passage that came to this pastor’s mind is found in a book of the Bible that John, one of Jesus’ disciples wrote, thus it bears his name.

He wrote in chapter 3 and in verse 16 the following words, “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life”.

The words and the reference (‘John 3:16’) are among those that are perhaps better known from the Bible. Perhaps you’ve seen placard waving enthusiasts ‘camera bombing’ live sporting events which are being broadcast with the John 3:16 reference scrawled on their signs. It’s a pretty obtuse effort to communicate their message since it remains lost to the majority although well known to some.

One year at the Winter Olympics two commentators were observing a bunch of John 3:16 sign wavers and one of the commentators asked his colleague what on earth it was all about.

Trying to be knowledgeable, he speculated that it must be a message for one of the competitors in the downhill trials named ‘John’.

Since speeds of up to 130 km/h are common in international downhill skiing competition, skiers strategise their run

carefully. Tucking into the most efficient aerodynamic position to minimise drag and increase speed, the split times are important.

The TV commentator ‘guessed’ the signs were intended by skier John’s supporters, to advise him he had 3 seconds to cover 16 metres to be amongst the winning athletes!

Anyway, back to the story of the pastor wrestling with the prompting to quote John 3:16 out loud. Having yielded to the impression to say the words in a strong voice, no sooner were they out of his mouth and the impression was there to “say it again”!

He did so a second time…”For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life”.

Some years later this church leader related the incident at a conference he was attending.

Following the meeting a lady came up to him and shared how on that day she had been behind her two-metre fence gardening, carrying a deep longing in her heart to know if God was real. She had just said, “God if you’re there please let me know.”

Immediately she heard the words from the other side of the fence.

Standing to her feet in disbelief she whispered, “If that’s You, do it again…!”

The experience so impacted her, a life-long faith and personal relationship with God resulted.

More birds in the hand

By Jeremy Smith

The Pirongia Te Aroaro o Kahu Restoration Society has recorded one of the busiest 12 months in its 15-year history despite having to “adapt quickly” to the unprecedented challenges of Covid-19.

A total of 110 of the roughly 350 volunteers on the society’s books logged about 9300 volunteer hours – more than 10 percent up on the previous 12 months.

The group carries out a wide range of environmental tasks – including using bait stations to target a range of pests including rats and possums and stoats – on both Mt Pirongia and at Okahukura in the Pureora Forest area.

Its work on Mt Pirongia and at Okahukura spans 14 and five years respectively.

With more than 2200 bait stations now covering 2000 hectares of bait control – and spanning 195km of bait lines – across the two sites, society chair Clare St Pierre said the group would look to expand that by up to 250 hectares in the near future.

In addition, 2020 also saw the society record its largest volunteer numbers on a single day of bait station filling at Okahukura – when nearly 70 people were present.

Ms St Pierre said that level of attendance saw the entire 1000ha bait station grid it has established there serviced in a day – reducing rats in the area by nearly 30 percent this season.

“We were also delighted by how fast we were able to get back to work when the country shifted to Alert Level 2.”

Aside from one part time staff member – hired in the last 12 months - the society is run entirely on a voluntary basis and she lauded the long-term commitment those volunteers have shown.

A highlight in the society’s tenure, she said, had been the re-introduction of kōkako to Mt Pirongia after an absence of several decades.

A Kōkako chick.

Volunteers now monitor the progress kōkako are making on the mountain at nesting sites, as well as maintaining areas of the native plant dactylanthus tayloriis.

“I think the presence of kōkako again has filled people with so much joy – we’ve definitely seen a surge in our volunteer numbers, likely in part because people just love the monitoring work we do on that front.”

Society volunteers’ busiest time of year gets underway from next month, during which they re-fill the group’s bait station network twice a year and then monitor kōkako nests each week through until March.

This season saw nesting attempts by only four breeding kōkako pairs – a number which may have been higher had there not been summer and autumn drought conditions.

Seven chicks were added to the population.

Other milestones of note from the past 12 months highlighted at the society’s annual meeting included the presentation of a life membership to Selwyn June and the upgrading of the society’s Envirocentre building in Pirongia Village.

Last year’s committee was re-elected and new committee members Andy Bryant and Brian Bowell added.

Water rates warning

Residents in Te Awamutu, Pirongia and Kihikihi will receive water rates covering a six-month period this week, rather than the regular quarterly water rates.

Waipā District Council was prevented from taking the April quarterly water meter readings because of Covid-19 restrictions.

As a result, water rates for households in Te Awamutu, Pirongia and Kihikihi will be

covering a six-month period, rather than the regular threemonth cycle.

Council’s finance manager, Sarah Davies, said households who didn’t make a voluntary payment were likely to receive a higher water rates bill.

“We posted a letter to Te Awamutu, Kihikihi and Pirongia in May advising of the change to meter readings and suggested a

voluntary payment could be made to help reduce the impact of this six month water rate.”

“We recognise water rates may be further impacted due to families being at home and using more water during the lockdown period.

“For anyone struggling to pay their water rates, please contact Council so we can help you with payment options.”

Water rates are made up of a fixed charge, the same for every household in the district which helps pay for water infrastructure, and a variable charge for the amount of water used.

Councils may only recover the costs of treating, supplying and disposing of water.

Residents can pay their water rates online at www.waipadc. govt.nz/payit.

Karioi gets a helping hand A project on Mt Karioi is one of five to receive a total of $1.63 million in grants from Waikato Regional Council.

The council’s Community Restoration Committee, at its first meeting last week, approved Natural Heritage Fund grants for groups working on landscape scale predator control projects.

A Rocha Aotearoa’s Karioi Project will get almost $465,000 over four years.

Other grants have gone to the Moehau Environment Group, Whenuakiwi Trust’s Whenuakite Kiwi Care Project, Te Ara Hou Kennedy Bay Ltd’s Pukewharariki Ngahere and Wai Landscape Restoration Project and Mokaihaha Kōkako Trust’s Mokaihaha Kōkako Project.

The five projects will control pests over a combined area of 25,000 hectares – 1 per cent of the Waikato’s land area.

Projects are collaborations between many parties, including landowners, Māori, the Department of Conservation, communities, councils and local businesses, and all include volunteer labour ranging from 300 to 6000 hours a year.

Funds will create at least six fulltime jobs a year for four years.

The Natural Heritage Fund was set up to help with the council’s commitment to preserving the natural heritage of the region and is built up by a targeted rate of $5.80 for every property in the region.

A Rocha has been working for 15 years to re-establish Raglan’s Mt Karioi as a seabird mountain.

A community-led integrated pest control programme on 15000ha of private landowner and public conservation land to help protect greyfaced petrel (ōi) has assisted other native wildlife.

There have been more frequent sightings of kākā on the mountain, and little blue penguins are also attempting to breed. The project has more than 100 active volunteers.

Karioi Project leader Kristel van Houte said having four years of funding was invaluable to the project.

“It enables us to really plan, expand and implement not just one year ahead but for four years. Having that certainty enables us to connect people to nature and protect biodiversity at a landscape scale.”

Meet our intern Good Local Media and Wintec are working together to help produce the next generation of journalists.

From this week 20-year-old Wintec journalism student Danielle Zollickhofer has commenced an internship and will write for the Te Awamutu and Cambridge News as part of her course.

Danielle is from Germany, “but I fell deeply in love with New Zealand during a gap year after I finished my A-Levels back home”.

Her gap year brought her to the Waikato, first as an au pair on a dairy farm in Danielle Zollickhofer Matamata, then as a student.

She says journalism is in her blood.

“My father was a journalist at a local newspaper in my hometown, so it was only natural that I followed in his footsteps,” she said. “The internship combines everything that I am interested in: people’s stories, community news writing and the beautiful countryside of the Waipā district.

“Talking to active journalists and the people of Cambridge and Te Awamutu will give me a sense of the communities and stories that matter to them. I am looking forward to broadening my horizon and learning what they are interested in, what their stories are and what moves them.”

What future would you like to see for Otorohanga District?

Next year the Otorohanga District Council will develop a new long term plan (LTP) for our district, and are hosting drop-in sessions - not formal meetings, but an opportunity to drop-in anytime during the session and talk to us about what you’d like to see for the future, things you’d like the Council to be doing (or not), and any concerns or issues you want to share.

We hope you’ll buzz along for a cuppa and chat!

Eco-friendly swaps work a treat

Hundreds of Waipā residents have traded in single-use plastics for reusable items this month as part of Plastic Free July.

More than 650 eco-friendly goodies, such as bamboo toothbrushes, bars of soap, beeswax wraps and shampoo bars, were given away at six events held in Cambridge and Te Awamutu by Waipā District Council over the past month to promote the initiative.

Plastic Free July is an annual campaign to reduce plastic waste by encouraging people and businesses to use sustainable alternatives.

Council waste minimisation officer, Sally Fraser, said it was encouraging to see so many locals attending the events, engaging in conversations and looking for ways to reduce their contribution to plastic waste.

“There are a lot of people in Waipā who are very keen to reduce the amount of plastic they use and to live more

sustainably, which is fantastic.

“The key is to start off with making small, simple changes such as using a beeswax wrap for your sandwich each day rather than cling film or using a reusable produce bag instead of the single use plastic bags.”

Fraser said it was important to focus on reducing or reusing plastic items before recycling them.

“We’ve got a great recycling system here in Waipā but the best way to make the biggest impact on how much waste goes to landfill is by reducing or reusing plastics.

Recycling should be a last resort after these options.”

In Waipā, only plastic types 1, 2 and 5, paper, cardboard, tins and cans can be recycled in the yellow wheelie bin, and glass in the blue wheelie bin. All recycling must be clean and empty.

THURSDAY JULY 30, 2020

College teams impress in opening matches Waikato Lacrosse High School League for 2020 kicked off in force over the weekend.

In the Girls’ Premier Division, Te Awamutu College came out of the start box looking composed and strong to take their opening match in convincing style against St Peters, Cambridge 19-2.

St Peters Cambridge were the 2019 Waikato High School League and National High School Champions and are always a tenacious and formidable opponent.

For the Te Awamutu side, however, the focus was less on the final score and more on creating a great team culture for the future.

Te Awamutu College Premier coach, Leon Green, commented after the match: “we have three expectations from the team.

First, energy. Second, to have fun. And third, looking after each other.”

He believes that this new focus will help the Premier girls to mesh and gel as a team.

“The best thing that I saw was that they shared the small moments, and the whole team cheered each other on… so they can keep morale high, have lots of fun, and try new things.”

Green recognises that lockdown was challenging for everyone. But the girls had committed to training and helped each other.

“It’s good to see that the level of lacrosse did

not drop away, and that the level of skill is still up there.”

Green made particular mention of players in the team who are new to the Premier level. “There were some young players who did not shy from the [Premier] level and the intensity of the game….Our philosophy is to create an environment to share knowledge and make it comfortable to share.”

In the Boys Premier Division, Te Awamutu College had a scrimmage for their opening match against a combined school team of experienced players and produced some strong play in a fast-paced game. Te Awamutu College were the 2019 League Champions and will have high hopes for the 2020 season.

Matches for the Girls High Lacrosse League are played on grass every Saturday at the Tamahere Recreational Reserve, and Premier Boys play indoors every Sunday at the Inline Hockey Centre in Hamilton.

This year’s High Lacrosse season has been compressed into a 9-week thriller during Term 3 in the wake of COVID-19, with the finals scheduled for the weekend of 19-20 September 2020. A new Junior Boys League – also played on Saturdays at Tamahere Recreational Reserve – will get underway for the first time on Saturday.

Fast finishing Sports fall short in thriller

By Justin Miezenbeek

Te Awamutu Sports went into their last home game of the season with a potential semi-final position on the line but will rue coming out of the half time break in second gear and digging a hole that, as exhilarating as their finish to the match was, was too deep to dig out of going down to 43-33 in Waikato Premier rugby.

First half tries to skipper Matthew Towers and midfielder Awa Morris had sports trailing 19-14 at half time before an ill fated 10 minute period saw Melville lay on three tries on a lethargic Sports and take a 40-14 lead before a wild finish with tries to Matthew Vickers, Gordon Fullerton and Fetu Sasalu.

That pulled the score to within seven points in the dying minutes. A late long range penalty goal to Melville stretched

Premier B hooker Dylan Jefferies shrugs off a defender to score his side’s only points of the day.

the lead to 10 and denied Sports a valued bonus point.

The Premier B side also felt the taste of defeat in a somewhat misleading 26-5 loss to Melville. Both sides beat each other into submission but the visitors crept out to a 12-0 lead midway through the second half. Sports had their chances, but couldn’t convert until hooker Dylan Jefferies broke through and grabbed Sports’ only points. With the score 12-5 and the match winding down it was anyone’s game, but Melville were the side to finish stronger, two converted tries in the last five minutes, inflating the score in what was a tightly contested match.

The task gets tougher next weekend as Te Awamutu travels to Cambridge to tackle defending champs Hautapu, who are smarting from their first loss in almost two years to Hamilton Old Boys on Saturday. Hautapu ran the table last

year to win the Breweries Shield with a perfect record, and until this weekend, had gone through the season unbeaten again.

Last season was entirely forgettable against Hautapu, heavy defeats in each round highlighted the gulf between the sides. A red hot Hautapu was too hot to handle in the afternoon heat and Sports went down 80-12 at Albert Park, and the return visit to Cambridge was not much better, an injury ravaged side going down 73-14 in steady drizzle.

A tough task looks to be made tougher by a concerning injury ward. Already missing backs Shancy Waho, J’Ndre Liebenberg and Tairoa Crean, Sports lost returning lock Kieran Westlake to a hip injury in the second half to go along with a few players nicked up in a brutally physical encounter with Melville.

Coach Jim Grainger read the riot act at half time, but the damage had already been done as Te Awamutu dropped another three points in WaiBop premier league football last weekend.

The side was beaten 3-0 at home by Unicol and now has a trip to Ngaruawahia to contemplate this weekend.

The game started well for Te Awamutu as Haydyn Roil almost got onto the end of a wonderful move after 12 minutes.

Against the run of play, Unicol went ahead three minutes later, then doubled that with a headed goal on 20 minutes.

Te Awamutu conceded again just before half time when Aaron Mills was

against it. A tame shot that unexpectedly didn’t deviate opened the scoring, and an electric Morrinsville attack added two more before the break.

Clever tactical substitutions saw the team then rally with man of the match Ronnie Rao, who recovered from a sickening head clash, and Craig Budden putting in energetic performances. Rao conceded a penalty but mind games from the wily Bunyan ensured no further damage was done, and the second half was kept scoreless.

Next Saturday the team are at Galloway Park against Claudelands Rovers Galaticos.

The senior mens division 5 team played some of their

Te Awamutu beaten again adjudged to have fouled an opponent in the penalty area.

He was also sinbinned for 10 minutes.

Grainger’s words made an impact and Te Awamutu created several chances in the second half and looked by far the better side, but not quite able to finish in front of goal as the second half remained scoreless.

It was a case of the same story for the Edmonds Judd men’s reserves on Saturday, with a loss to higher ranked Morrinsville.

Injuries and unavailability had already meant manager Andy Bunyan, eligible for his Gold Card in two weeks, deputised in goal, and two further injuries in the first 15 minutes had TA was up

best football, working well as a team on Saturday against Northern United. It was goal to goal and a nail biter of a game with a score of 1-all at half time.

Down to 10 players in the second half the young side kept the Northern at bay until the last 30 seconds of the game, when United netted the winner to take the game by the odd goal in seven. Player of the day was Bradley Hirst.

Three quick Cambridge strikers were rewarded with an early goal in the 10th minute header. TA looked more structured in the second half, but Cambridge went further ahead after 15 minutes. Genevieve Churton and Chantel Fur struck back to level the scores. Player of the day was Sarah McKnight for great defensive work.

THURSDAY JULY 30, 2020

with Jan Bilton

Sweet on Winter

Let it rain, let it blow, let it snow. All are great excuses for enjoying decadent warming winter puds. And some of the old traditionals have made a comeback.

Rice pudding for example. I can’t remember enjoying it that much when I was a child, but this winter I’ve actually been craving it.

Originally — because rice was an expensive import — this pudding was prepared exclusively in the kitchens of English kings and queens. It was unsweetened and served as more of a side dish. However, as rice became cheaper, currants and dates were added, it was sweetened and flavoured with cloves and nutmeg. By the 20th century, rice was so cheap it became a staple in schools and hospitals and its rep began to wane. Boredom set in!

However, like bread and butter puddings, the rice pudding has been reinvented. It should be cooked slowly to allow the grains to absorb the liquid and become tender and creamy. But I’ve discovered it can successfully be microwaved for a shorter time — and adding chocolate gives it new appeal.

Old-fashioned bread and butter puddings were one of my mother’s faves — but she didn’t experiment by adding fruit, brandy or whisky. All three make a world of difference.

Cheers!

TAMARILLO BRIOCHE PUDDING Tamarillos have long been popular in crumbles, upsidedown puddings and hot fruit sponges. For change, I’ve adapted a French toast recipe as the topping for my baked tams. If brioche is unavailable, use fruit bread or white bread.

Tamarillos: 8 tamarillos, peeled, thickly sliced 4 tablespoons brown sugar 2 tablespoons orange juice 1/2 teaspoon Chinese five-spice Topping: 6-8 thick slices Brioche bread 3/4 cup cream 2 eggs 1 teaspoon finely grated orange rind

Chocolate Rice Pudding

Tamarillo Brioche Pudding Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the tamarillos in a 26cm x 16cm baking dish. Sprinkle with the brown sugar, orange juice and five-spice. Cover with foil and bake for about 20 minutes until just cooked.

Meanwhile, trim the crusts from the bread.

Beat the cream and eggs until combined. Add the orange rind. Pour into a shallow tray. Add the bread slices turning to coat evenly. Stand until the egg mixture has been absorbed by the bread.

Carefully cut each bread slice into 4 triangles Place on top of the tamarillos in a neat pattern. Bake for about 25 minutes until the bread is golden. Serves 6.

CHOCOLATE RICE PUDDING Make this in the microwave — prevents the pudding sticking to the saucepan. Great topped with sliced bananas tossed in brown sugar 1/4 cup medium grain rice, rinsed 2 cups milk 3 tablespoons cocoa powder 2 tablespoons sugar pinch salt 1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence 2 tablespoons chocolate chips Combine the rice, milk, cocoa powder, sugar and salt in a large microwave bowl. Cook on high for 5 minutes, stirring

halfway through.

Reduce the power to 50% and continue cooking for about 20 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes. It should be thick and creamy, not solid.

Stir in the vanilla and chocolate chips.

Pour into serving dishes. Great served with whipped cream.

Serves 4.

BREAD & BUTTER BANANA BRANDY PUDDING To make cinnamon sugar, combine 2 tablespoons of sugar with 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon.

4 small bananas, peeled and sliced 2 tablespoons lemon juice 3 tablespoons marmalade 2 thick slices bread, buttered 2 eggs 3/4 cup milk 2 tablespoons cinnamon sugar 1 tablespoon butter 3-4 tablespoons brandy Toss the banana in the lemon juice to prevent discolouration. Place on the base of a 20-23cm baking dish. Dot with marmalade. Cut the bread in cubes and scatter on top. Beat the eggs, milk and sugar and pour over the pudding. Allow to soak for 15 minutes.

Meanwhile preheat the oven to 180°C. Dot the pudding with butter and bake for about 30 minutes. Pour the brandy over before serving. Serves 4-6.

OUR NEXT REPORTER Do you have the ‘write’ stuff?

The TE AWAMUTU NEWS is an exciting weekly community newspaper independently owned and with a passion for serving the Te Awamutu/ Otorohanga community. We are now looking for a freelance reporter (10-15 hours per week) to help boost our local community news coverage.

Does the following sound like you? If so, we want to hear from you.

• I always listen to news on radio and read news online and in print.

• I think on my feet, I can produce copy quickly and accurately – and I am a skilled interviewer.

• I’m comfortable taking pictures.

• I know my community – from sports clubs to local body politicians.

• I’m computer literate and proficient with MS Office.

The new Te Awamutu News reporter will report to the news editor and discuss job assignments, how stories will be presented and how to make the most of resources available. 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 August 3, 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
