Streets: time for people to talk

Waipā District Council has opened feedback lines for the Streets for People project which has apparently polarised Cambridge residents.

The project has seen a series of temporary changes made to streets in Cambridge and has prompted a raft of letters to the News editor.

Residents are now being asked to have their say on the 25 temporary changes which have been implemented across a network of streets over the past month.

The project aims to make streets safer and easier for people to walk, by trialling what the council says are easy to implement and cost-

effective changes.

Some of the changes being trialled include a pop-up cycleway on Wilson and Duke streets, pink and blue polka dots at several intersections and temporary speed humps on Bryce Street.

There have been complaints the emergency services have been snookered by the changes and that the props and polka dots are a distraction and defeat their purpose. Others argue they will improve safety.

Waipā District Council service delivery group manager Dawn Inglis said the complete network was now in place and “we’d like to hear from those who are using it

about whether the temporary installations are working as they should be or whether some need to be adjusted”.

“We knew going into this that not every concept would be 100% perfect which is why we use a trial and error method. The feedback enables us to work together with our community to identify the best solutions for the town.”

Inglis said hundreds of pieces of feedback had already been received via social media, in person and through the Streets for People website -and they had prompted some early tweaking.

The 10 speed cushions installed on Bryce

Street had been reduced to five, additional signs had been installed at the intersection of Wilson and Duke streets to alert drivers of a new one-way system on upper Duke Street and a number of orange ‘hit sticks’ have been removed.

The trial is 90 per cent funded by Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency and is one of more than 21 trials underway across New Zealand.

Residents can have their say online at www.streetsforpeople.nz or collect a hardcopy survey to fill in from the Cambridge Library and Waipā District Council office on 23 Wilson Street, Cambridge.

Waipā District Libraries are running a Waipā-themed scavenger hunt to encourage families to explore the district.

Participants can collect up to eight cards which will take them to sites across Waipā to complete a set of challenges at each location.

Every completed card returned to one of the Libraries or the Te Awamutu Museum will earn the participant an entry into a prize draw for one of three family passes to Hamilton Zoo. For some additional entries into the prize draw, included on the back of each card is a bingo sheet of spots around Waipā. A visit to any spot is a strike off the bingo card.

Scavenger hunt cards are available at either library in Cambridge or Te Awamutu or either the Cambridge or Te Librarian Matt Morris with a Awamutu Museum. The competition runs to April 30. scavenger card.

Vaccine debate So, in spite of worldwide scientific acceptance of the Covid vaccines, here in New Zealand we have citizens saying a Covid vaccine jab is unacceptable to them. Is this Government issuing certificates for those people vaccinated? This is urgently required as many countries may well impose strict travel restrictions on those who have not had the jab. I certainly hope we will. I also believe those not having a certificate, then catching Covid 19, should be required to pay for their own hospitalisation and treatment. Naturally none of this should apply to those with a health or medical exemption.

When all is said and done, these antivaxers are keeping the risk ongoing for us and our children, along with the future risk to the New Zealand economy. Come on New Zealanders. Play your part in the protection of this country.

Ian Thomas, Cambridge Streets planning criticised Welcome to the New Legoland – Cambridge. It is with some amusement that I see the so-called improvement in and around Cambridge under the assumption to make streets safer for people.

I am amused because all I have seen are potentials for these changes to cause accidents.

What do the orange sticks do apart from create visual pollution and divert cyclists into the path of following vehicles? Simply install a mini roundabout like Empire Street.

Regarding the proposed two-way cycle track along Cambridge-Hamilton Road, has anyone done research into two-way cycle tracks? In Berlin and Amsterdam they are dangerous to pedestrians, reversing vehicles and none too good for the cyclists.

A simple dotted green line alongside the solid white line like Hamilton, would achieve as much with less disruption.

The One way at Bryce and Duke Street again was the research done? All traffic from Williams Street now turns into the already

congested town centre.

The Pedestrian Crossing on CambridgeHamilton Road, in my view has too many distractions and drivers may miss pedestrians because of all the painted boxes and orange sticks, distractions, especially in poor visibility. Drivers know the purpose of pedestrian crossing improve visibility and do not obscure it.

I am sure most people of Cambridge do not want or need the Lego look.

Maybe council can look at widening footpaths to accommodate pedestrians, mobility scooters, small cyclists and pushchairs to pass each other, on both sides of streets.

It is time for a rethink, reduce obstacles, distractions and improve visibility in line with road traffic authorities thinking.

Stuart Barnett Cambridge Council flak I was not impressed with the negative comments made about the Waipā councillor, reported in a recent edition of the Cambridge News.

Cambridge is a very fast-growing town with large numbers of outsiders coming to live.

In particular the roading has become a difficult issue.

When I came with my family to live in Cambridge 40 years ago the population was just under 10,000. There were no lines of traffic and parking was always available.

That is certainly not the case now.

We have a council doing their best to improve this wonderful town, not only by continuing to make the town bigger, but also ensuring that items like the historic Town Hall are kept in good condition.

Maybe at the next election for Waipā council those with negative comments will become elected and dramatically improve the things already happening in Cambridge.

Michael Cole, Cambridge

Autumn is making its presence known …as are the school holidays.

We all know holidays bring opportunities for quality family time. They are also often a time of increased petty crime however and this week has been no exception.

Preventing crime is all of our responsibility.

I say this a lot, but only because the message still doesn’t seem to be getting out.

Reporting crime to Police when it occurs gives Police the best chance of securing evidence and catching offenders. It also enables us to accurately monitor and predict criminal patterns.

This in turn makes for intelligence-based patrolling by Police and community patrols to target hotspots and reduce crime.

But prevention first, as they say. It is, of course, better to remove the opportunity for your car or house to be targeted in the first place.

You avoid all the inconvenience and expense associated with dealing with a crime, Police resource can be more proactively deployed and together we show criminals that Cambridge is not ‘the weakest link’.

While out and about, I have seen cars with suitcases in the back seat and phones left in plain sight with no owners around.

Opportunistic offenders will readily take advantage.

For this reason, I repeat again that we must all lock up our cars, keep handbags, wallets, valuables and spare change out of sight. “Car knockers” - thieves who break into cars, will walk down a road trying car door handles as they go.

Guess from which one they will most commonly steal? Firstly, the one they find that is left unlocked, secondly the one with a visible, tempting resaleable item. Don’t be the driver of that that car.

Lock up your houses and businesses too and don’t advertise when they are unoccupied.

If you have bicycles, scooters, power tools and the like at home, secure them in a locked shed or garage, and keep the door closed so as not to show passing people all of the goodies inside.

Don’t forget, if you see suspicious activity happening in your neighbourhood, call Police too. If everyone took these measures, opportunistic thieves would be thwarted, and the community as a whole will benefit.

On that note, it’s now my turn to enjoy some family time, have a good week.

Briefs…

Up in the air

A quarantine-free bubble with Australia has been called “good news” for Waikato. Air New Zealand Chief Customer and Sales Officer Leanne Geraghty says the re-opening of a transTasman bubble on will be a welcome boost for Waikato.

In 2019, Air New Zealand flew around 4400 passengers from Australia who booked directly through to Hamilton, and Australians spent an estimated $162 million in the province.

Full house

Having been described as “the worst of both worlds” and mocked by some media last week, Waikato Regional Council’s new Te Huia train service between Auckland and Hamilton attracted so many customers last weekend some missed out and others found it was standing room only.

Company buys in

Cambridge based Designer Tanks has attracted Just Life Group to become an investor in its company. Just Life Group announced to the New Zealand Stock Exchange this week that it had acquired 60% of the business of Designer Tanks Ltd. The move has been welcomed by Chloe Barrott, the General Manager of Designer Tanks and Ingrid Cook, the Operations Manager who started the business only a year ago.

Riding for our RSA clubs

By Viv Posselt

The roar of over 100 motorcycles carrying more than 180 riders and pillion passengers was heard through the region last weekend as the Waikato chapter of the Tribal Nations Motorcycle Club took to the streets to raise funds for Returned and Services’ Association (RSA) clubs.

The R.O.R. (Ride of Respect NZ) event is one of two annual rides done by Tribal Nations in New Zealand. The other is the R.A.T.S. event (Riders Against Teen Suicide),

which will take place again later this year.

Club secretary, Cambridge-based Rod Irvine, said the R.O.R. was based on an international initiative and started in New Zealand in 2016.

“It started in England as a ride of respect for fallen soldiers and has been taken over as an annual event by various motorcycle clubs around New Zealand.”

Tribal Nations MC is a riding and social motorcycle group, headquartered in Ngaruawahia but with nationwide membership.

It takes its name from the first

nations people, intended to indicate clan, tribe, band, nation, group or community, and has a strong focus on helping spread awareness about suicide, violence and abuse.

Last Saturday’s event included riders from around the country.

It started in Ngaruawahia, stopped in Te Awamutu for lunch, proceeded through Cambridge and Morrinsville, visiting RSAs in each town.

Rod, who joined the club in 2016, said funds raised through the event would be distributed among local RSAs.

Knitted poppies to Memories from Sgt Moncur mark Anzac Day

Six residents at Bupa St Kilda Care Home in Cambridge took six weeks to create a knitted mosaic of remembrance for Anzac Day. Resident May Dodds, along with volunteer Jude Bowen, was inspired by resident Marjorie Fromm after she mentioned that the Heritage Museum in Morrinsville has a knitted poppy display that comes out each Anzac, bearing the names of local servicemen who served in the wars.

“Marjorie mentioned the display and I thought ‘what a good idea, that sounds lovely to make’,” said May, 93, who has a personal connection to the war through her husband, a World War Two veteran, and her father, who served in World War One. The smaller knitted poppies were finished

in half an hour, with the larger ones taking almost two hours due to the double knitting wool and stitching required, they said.

Marjorie, 91, said she quickly discovered a new method of knitting the poppies into their unique shape. “Instead of knitting them round, I knitted a strip of wool, then pulled the bottom strip tight and stitched it up the top. Then I finished it by putting a little button in the middle.”

The knitting duo say they learned their skill through knitting their own jerseys and knitting for their children.

Bupa St Kilda activities assistant Loren Riley-Sykes said Cambridge RSA will visit the care home on Anzac Day for a one-hour service which will include wreath-laying, hymns, and a bugler to play the Last Post.

Barriers removed

A partnership between Wintec and Toi Ohomai will enable massage therapists to upskill in the Waikato and Bay of Plenty regions. Wintec Centre for Sport Science and Human Performance Director, Greg Smith, says the collaboration was developed to remove the barriers to higher study for learners who typically gain employment or go into business after achieving their Level 5 Diploma in Massage qualification, making it difficult to continue their study

World War Two veteran Ray Moncur has shared more of his wartime memories the older he has become but has poignant memories of the mates he lost in Egypt and Italy, and the ones who remained friends for years.

Ray (Raymond) Moncur was a sergeant in J & K Section, 2nd Division Signals K.E.V. He joined up in April 1941 at age 21, doing his training at Waiouru and then Trentham.

He was attached to Anzac Day always brings back memories Wellington HQ after for WWII veteran Ray Moncur, now a the Pearl Harbour resident at Cambridge Resthaven. attack.

In mid-1942, he was in Australia before setting sail for Egypt where he served with the signals, setting up lines of communication between the troops. He often thought of himself as not being a real soldier, like those who fought on the front lines, but remembers the time they were under attack from the Germans and a bullet went through the sleeve of a mate standing next to him. Another incident saw him jump into their dug-out just as bullets flew over their heads.

Letters he sent to his sister Jessie back home focused on the positive. One from Egypt said: “A couple of weeks back we did an 80 mile route march and boy was it tough. I didn’t do the whole distance as I got blisters on my feet. I suppose I managed 70 miles, so not too bad. One good thing was that all the marching was done between 9pm and midnight so it was quite cool. The cooks had a cup of tea waiting for us and I don’t think I have ever appreciated a drink so much before!”

After the war ended, Ray arrived home aboard the Dominion Monarch in 1945, and married his fiancé, Roie Cambpell, in December the same year. They were married for 65 years and had four children.

Submission time almost up

Residents have less than a week to make a submission on Waipā District Council’s Long Term Plan.

Waipā District Council mayor Jim Mylchreest is encouraging residents who haven’t yet provided feedback on the draft 2021-31 Long Term Plan topics to head online or pick up a form from a Library or Council office to have their say.

Submissions close at 5pm next Tuesday.

Submission forms are available online at www. whatsnextwaipa.nz, and can be collected from a Council office or Library in Te Awamutu and Cambridge.

“Your feedback helps decide what we focus on over the next ten years so it’s important to have your say,” Jim Mylchreest said.

Council’s strategy manager Kirsty Downey said there was a significant number of partially completed forms on the website without a name and email associated to them.

Those details are required for a submission to be considered.

The What’s Next, Waipā website is designed to hold feedback for 40 days before clearing the information.

Submission forms for the Waipā 2021-2031 Long Term Plan can be dropped off at Council offices at 23 Wilson Street, Cambridge and 101 Bank Street, Te Awamutu or a Waipā District Library. Forms can also be dropped into the submission boxes at LTP pop-up events throughout April.

The Waipa Network Business Awards was once again another successful night with a well-known website design company taking the top honour.

Rocketspark founder and CEO Grant Johnson said being a company that deal with clients all over the world, it was “awesome” to be recognised as doing well in their own backyard.

“With so many clients as finalists and category winners it was a real night of celebration for us,” he said.

“When we were up against so many other deserving finalists we were incredibly delighted to win the Supreme Award.”

The Cambridge Business Chamber was delighted at both the diversity and calibre of applications for 2021 Waipa Networks Business Awards.

Chamber CEO Kelly Bouzaid said the awards enable the Chamber to showcase some of their most progressive businesses in the region, spotlight some of the region’s hidden gems and allows them to recognise the incredible talent and business acumen housed here in Waipa.

“We are in a privileged position to peek into businesses of all ages and stages and see the calibre of leadership, innovation, culture and sustainability,” she said.

“We have seen resilience and robustness within our business community and we are inspired and proud of the achievements we have seen.”

The Awards process is challenging, making it a time to both reflect on success and supports a review process with feedback from the judges adding great value to the overall business strategy.

Kelly said it also provided the finalists and winners with an accolade to add to their credentials, one they should be very proud of.

The award winners were: • Excellence in Large Business: Rocketspark (Winner), Magills Butchery (Highly Commended) • Excellence in Medium Business: Resolution Retreats (Winner), Essential Insurances (Highly Commended) • Excellence in Small Business: Cambridge Top 10 Holiday Park (Winner) • Excellence in New / Emerging Business: Ag Drive Limited (Winner) • Customer Choice: Homebrew Coffee (Winner – Cambridge), Magills Butchery (Winner- Te Awamutu) • Leader of the Year: Hamilton Airport - Mark Morgan (Winner) • Supreme Award: Rocketspark (Winner) • Community Contribution Award: The Christmas Festival Society (Winner), Kaz (Highly Commended) • Innovation and Adaptation Award: AG Drive Limited (Winner), Good Union (Highly Commended) • Contribution to Tourism Award: Cambridge Top 10 Holiday Park (Winner) • Digital Strategy and E-Commerce Award: Flourish Wellness (Winner) • Waste Minimisation - Environmental Award: Accounted4 (Winner), Homebrew Coffee (Highly Commended), Rotary Cambridge Urban Miners (Highly Commended) • Employee of the Year: More Real Estate - Lily Hooker (Winner) • Judges Award: Magills Butchery (Winner)

Māori ward call: ODC says yes

By Roy Pilott

Ōtorohanga has stolen a march on fellow Waikato councils and voted to create a Māori ward for its 2022 elections.

In doing so it opted against the consultation process favoured by sister councils.

The decision, a majorty vote on Tuesday, was applauded by Mayor Max Baxter.

“I am incredibly proud of our councillors... the addition of a

Māori Ward can only enhance our decision making and add value.

We have listened to iwi in our district, and working together is fundamental to the future of Ōtorohanga,” he said.

The district’s Māori population sat at 30 per cent in 2018 – Waipā’s is 15.

The decision came as Waipā council staff began to process hundreds of responses to its public consultation process as it considers a Māori ward.

To introduce Māori wards, councils have until late May to make a decision.

To date, more Waipā councillors have indicated support for a Māori ward than oppositon to it.

Meanwhile, both Hamilton City and Waikato District councils are reviewing earlier decisions not to introduce Māori wards – in Hamilton’s case, a decision made just three weeks ago.

Waikato District could follow Ōtorohanga’s lead.

Its councillors will review a report on Māori wards on May 20.

If they back a Māori ward, then the decision will be final as there won’t be time for a consultation process.

Hamilton overturned an earlier “no” decision and has given residents three weeks to provide feedback on Māori wards as well as on other ways of achieving Māori representation on Council.

If Māori wards are confirmed Hamilton could opt for up to two.

The number of wards is based on

population.

Māori seats will not be additions – they will come at the expense of existing council seats.

Mayor Paula Southgate believed her council had made the right call.

“Over the next few weeks, we’ll need to have some courageous conversations as a city. We should not shy away from that. We are providing people with a way to respectfully share their views, and I hope all people do that with open hearts and open minds.”

District’s growth helps cap rates

Waipā District Council ratepayers may be facing lower proposed rate increases than others around the country and staff say that is partly because of growth.

Council is consulting on its draft Long-Term Plan which proposes an average annual rates increase across the district of 1.8 per cent over 10 years. There would be a maximum average increase of 4.2 per cent in the first two years.

Chief financial officer Ken Morris said the amount collected in rates over the next decade would be supplemented by revenue from fees and charges, subsidies and development contributions paid by property developers.

Proposed Waipā rates rises were low in comparison to some other places partly because of district growth, he said.

“On a percentage basis, Waipā has higher growth than many other parts of the country. That keeps our rates lower because there are more ratepayers to help pay for the services we provide.

And the additional capital value of many new houses for example, spreads the costs over a wider base,” Morris said.

“If so many people weren’t moving here, our rates would need to be higher to pay for the same level of service.”

He said Waipā had managed its finances

prudently, and that was also contributing to the lower proposed average rates increase.

“Waipā has very good credit control processes and our rates arrears compared to some other councils is very low. That helps. In terms of cashflow, we are prudent when it comes to borrowing, only borrowing when we have to. Otherwise we use cash reserves so the benefit goes back immediately to ratepayers.”

Waipā has had lower debt than many other councils for years. It is forecast to peak in 2027/28 at $304 million.

“We need to borrow to pay for a huge capital expenditure programme.

Borrowing to pay for that

work, rather that rating people to pay for it, is the fairest way. It means we spread the costs over many years, rather than just piling them all on to those ratepayers who happen to live in the district right now,” Morris said.

“But despite debt going up, we have plenty of headroom; in fact Council could borrow a further $108 million in the peak year if necessary before we reach our debt limit. And of course now is a very good time to borrow because interest rates are so low.”

Morris believes Council has done “a pretty good job” delivering a huge range of services and with ony “modest” rates increases

The council is borrowing to pay for a huge capital expenditure programme.

proposed.

“Council has maintained the district’s infrastructure well and invested where necessary but we are able to, and can, provide some very good community services to our community. Waipā faces

many of the same challenges as other councils but we have been able to manage those well. Overall, while no-one welcomes increases rates, I think an average of 1.8 per cent over 10 years is pretty good.”

Sorted: tonnes of chemical waste

Over 986kg of fertiliser bags, approximately one tonne of chemicals and 910kgs of chemical containers were dropped off by Waipā farmers at the rural waste One-Stop Shop event in Cambridge last week.

The free event enabled farmers and growers in Waipā to safely and sustainably dispose of farm waste. A total of 46 people took part.

Agrichemical containers and drums, unwanted agrichemicals, used motor oil, scrap metal, seed, fertiliser and feed bags were all dropped off at the event.

Dairy farmers Craig and Julie Wards went

along to the event to drop off empty 20 litre containers, waste oil and expired drench, and said it was great to have the option to do the right thing and recycle.

“The event was fantastic. It made it very easy to dispose of chemicals and other farm waste that would otherwise be tricky to get rid of in a sustainable and responsible way. We really appreciated the opportunity to do this.”

Containers will be recycled into underground cable covers and fertiliser bags will be turned back into woven polypropylene bags.

Waipā councillor and Te Awamutu dairy

farmer Susan O’Regan said most members of the rural community are committed to finding safe and sustainable ways to dispose of on farm waste.

“The One-Stop shop event in Cambridge gave us the chance to work with farmers and growers to help them dispose of their farm waste in one go.

“We were delighted with the turn out to the event and the amount of waste collected.”

The One-Stop Shop was run by nonprofit rural waste stewardship organisation Agrecovery with support from Waipā District Council.

Agrecovery held nine One-Stop Shop events around New Zealand in 2020, collecting over 6795kg of plastic from agrichemical containers and drums, 6594kg of waste oil and 5628kg of chemicals.

The events are an extension of the Rural Waste Minimisation Project, designed to tackle some of the barriers to recycling New Zealand’s rural communities face and raise awareness of recycling options for farmers and growers.

The programme is part-funded by the Ministry for Environment’s Waste Minimisation Fund.

New Sallies leaders settle in

By Viv Posselt

Almost four months after getting here, new Cambridge Corps Salvation Army leaders, Scott and Aimee Noakes, couldn’t be more delighted.

They arrived in January, taking over the ministry from predecessors, Karen and Shaun Baker. The children have settled into school and Aimee and Scott have a deep sense of wellbeing after marking their first Easter here.

“Scott and I really enjoyed Easter celebrations with our new church family and community,” said Aimee. “We have seen firsthand the generous heart of our local people and are grateful for the opportunity to be part of this vibrant community.”

It was last October when the couple heard their first placement after completing their two-year training period at the Salvation Army Training College in Upper Hutt was to be Cambridge. After having lived in both Wellington and Auckland, they had hoped for a small town in the North Island.

“We wanted to go somewhere relatively small,” said Scott, “somewhere rooted in community. Cambridge is perfect. I was keen on somewhere that was quite rural.”

Scott and Aimee both grew up in Army families, Scott’s family serving Fiji and Aimee’s in big city New Zealand. The couple have themselves worked for the Army, Scott as a youth pastor and Aimee a children’s

worker. That experience will serve them well as they continue the work of Karen and Shaun, who established a chaplaincy relationship with Cambridge Primary School.

Once they have fully familiarised themselves with the community and its needs, the Noakes are open to changing things where they see a need.

“There will be some changes as we adjust to the post-Covid need in the community, and we want to find other ways in which we can help people who require assistance,” said Scott. “We also want to make sure people are familiar with the work of the Salvation Army here, so we’re actively meeting with people in our community in order to make those connections.”

Cycling Festive ready to roll Town hall trustees named

By Steph Bell-Jenkins

The one day of the year when cyclists have free rein of Cambridge’s central streets is almost here, with the Cambridge Cycling Festival all go for Anzac Day afternoon.

“If you have a bike or trike to ride there’ll be something for you, whether you’re two or 92,” said event manager Rebecca Bonetti.

“There’ll be bouncy castles, food trucks, face painting, a DJ, poppy making, BMX demonstrations and

‘Sinking lid’ on pokies

By Blair Voorend

Waipa council says it is effectively operating a sinking lid policy with pokie machines.

The comment comes in the wake of a report from AUT suggests councils are a vital factor in finding a solution to the problem.

A report released last week by the Auckland University of Technology - Capping Problem Gambling in NZ – said local councils could be effective in addressing problem gambling by

introducing policies to reduce the number of gaming machines allowed per venue.

Waipa Council’s gambling policy was updated in 2019 and capped the number of pokie machines at 232.

“We retained the same cap as the previous three years, so when you look at population growth figures, in practicality, this is a sinking lid policy,” a council spokesperson said.

The 232 machines in Waipā are in 16 venues – there are 108 in Cambridge and 124 in Te Awamutu.

loads of fun for everyone.”

Vehicles will be diverted around the CBD on Sunday so Victoria St, Commerce St and Duke St can be converted into a giant racetrack for the day.

“Kids can simply have fun riding around the big central loop, or they can enter community races in three age classes – under 5, 5-7 and 8-10,” Rebecca said.

Older children can enter the Tag Team Relay, with intermediate, high school and family categories.

“All you need is a team of two – which might include Mum, Dad, Nana or Poppa – where each cyclist completes one lap of the street course as quickly as possible.”

For adults there’s the elite criterium, where A, B and C grade riders blast around Victoria St for cash prizes.

There are also two fresh competitions happening on the Village Green this year – the Wheelie and Dual Slalom.

“The Wheelie challenges riders to negotiate a course on one wheel, and the Dual Slalom pits two riders against each other through side-by-side obstacle courses designed by top BMX rider Paul Langlands,” Rebecca said.

“Paul will also be showcasing his freestyle skills doing flips and amazing tricks in two massive exhibitions.

“And the main street will become a drag strip for a mobility scooter drag race from Alpino up to the clock tower and an exhibition by national BMX development riders.”

WE COLLECT RECYCLING ON PUBLIC HOLIDAYS! If your collection falls on a public holiday, put it out on the kerbside like normal.

This will not affect your rubbish collection. Rubbish collection in Waipā is a private service. Check with your provider for collection dates over the holidays.

Seven founding trustees have been appointed to help drive development and promote use of Cambridge’s iconic Town Hall.

Waipā District Council established the independent Cambridge Town Hall Community Trust in December to help Cambridge and the wider community make the most of the town’s unique asset.

Cambridge Town Hall is a category two historic building and recognised by Heritage New Zealand Pouhere Taonga.

The hall was built in 1909 and originally used as the town hall as well as borough offices.

While the day-to-day running and promotion of the Hall will sit with the Trust, Council will retain ownership of the hall on behalf of the wider community.

There were 13 applicants applied to be founding trustees, and seven were appointed.

The trustees will give their time voluntarily.

They are: • Maxine Nelson – co-owner of Ignite Arts Academy in Cambridge, who has strong community networks, especially in community arts.

• Mary Anne Gill – who has senior communications experience across a range of sectors.

• Jenny Cave – who has filled senior management and academic roles in anthropology, arts and cultural industries internationally and domestically.

• Kirsty Johnson – an associate at Shelly Tweedy accountants.

• Rob Feisst –a business and community leader with management, strategy and fundraising skills.

• Antanas Procuta – architect and director of Paua Architects.

• Dick Breukink – who has experience in the hospitality sector and hotel management.

A look at village life

Preparing for Anzac Day

By Peter Carr

By Sue Milner, Chair, Cambridge Community Board

It’s a busy time in Cambridge this month.

We’ve just hosted Maadi Cup Rowing Regatta visitors and we all hope that they had a great time.

At our March meeting the Board discussed the Waipa Council’s 10 Year Plan. The Board will be putting in submissions to the Council, including asking for a new library building and a destination playground. In the meantime, we are happy that library rental charges for most books will be dropped.

This Sunday is Anzac Day, one of our most important annual Events.

There is the Dawn Service, and later in the morning another service. All are welcome to attend these services at the Town Hall.

The number of veterans is smaller each year but for many of us it is a time to remember those who died in both World Wars, as well as those who served and returned, and helped to make our Town and

Community Groups and Schools usually lay wreaths at the Services.

This year we invite any members of the community to place flowers to remember family members who may have served in the armed services. These can be laid after the official wreaths.

Wreaths can also be laid in the RSA section of the Hautapu Cemetery, and at the gates of the Hautapu Memorial Park Rugby Ground in Taylor St. Watch out too, for some very interesting posters this weekend featuring military cyclists.

This weekend’s Cycle Festival is a good time to remember the roles played by the cyclists and the runners in military campaigns.

The cycling connection is highlighted in Waipā District Council’s draft Long-Term Plan as the second stage of a 21.4km cycling route. Work on stage one of the route, from Te Awamutu to Lake

Ngaroto has started and the council is attempting to secure agreements with landowners.

Cyclists would have views of Mt Pirongia and the Waiari Pa and pass the military memorial on Bird Road. The cycleway would connect to Pirongia close to the entrance of Matakitaki Pa. Group manager, service

Enhanced Welfare arm bolsters RSA

By Viv Posselt

Moves by the Cambridge Returned and Services Association (RSA) to broaden its reach and help veterans and their families better access the assistance they are due are bearing fruit.

Under the stewardship of RSA president and vice president respectively, Tony Hill and Brigadier Jon Broadley, the body has increased its membership, reached out to neighbouring RSAs to share ideas, and supported over 100 veterans in accessing help they may not otherwise have received.

The Cambridge RSA had about 60 members when Tony took over the reins; there are now 130 members, some 93 of which are returned or servicemen.

Jon said members wanted to be part of an organisation that adds value to their experiences, no matter the era in which they served. Both men said the time was right for

the RSA to reach out to a new generation of veterans, and to ensure they can all access help for themselves and their families when required.

“We are primarily an organisation along the lines of a ‘Welfare Without Borders’ model,” said Tony. “That is what we are going to in this district, but all under the national RSA body. There is a range of support we can offer people, depending on whether they served pre- or post-1974 when ACC came in. We can help people navigate through that and understand the type of assistance they are entitled to … then we help them access it.”

Help can be in the form of health requirements, assistance in dealing with Veterans Affairs or other organisations, or practical support in terms of home maintenance, lawn care, house and gutter cleaning and the like.

“On one occasion, we helped the children of a veteran who had passed away get through their driving training,” Tony said. “He had hoped to do that, and we were able to pass the task on to one of our members.”

The club holds its monthly gatherings at Hidden Lakes

Hotel. They attract between 60-70 people at a time, and are good conduits for passing on information on available assistance. A recent move to turn a former storage space at Cambridge Health and Community Centre in Taylor St into a working office means veterans now have somewhere to go to discuss their needs.

Jon said one of the biggest challenges for the RSA was to make it relevant to younger veterans. “However, we are breaking down barriers and are succeeding in getting different people in. There is an understanding that veterans share.”

The theme for this year’s RSA Poppy Appeal was ‘Saluting Women and the Military’. The men said that some 20 percent of New Zealand’s military were female, all of whom go through the same training as the men, do the same jobs, and get paid the same.

Those keen to know more about the RSA’s welfare focus should contact the Tony Hill at jah@invictus.net.nz or on 021 440 093, or secretary Tricia Hague at triciaannhague@gmail. com, or on 027 388 6243.

A Waipā school student has gone from unpaid intern to money making computer programming wiz at Rocketspark in just two months.

Ryan Cherry, 16, started at Rocketspark to gain some work experience in computer programming and coding after showing exceptional promise at school.

Cambridge High School, where Ryan is a year-12 student, was forming a relationship with Rocketspark and they saw

some work experience in computer programming, he jumped at the opportunity.

For the first two months he learned a lot from Richard King, Rocketspark co-founder and developer, about Vue, a programming language.

“Then I got contacted

by Jason Tiller, Head of Partnerships, asking if I wanted to do site migrations as a part time job and I was like cool! Steady pay cheque.”

Ryan now does at least two days a week after

that he was over-achieving in his digital studies.

Carol Webb, Deputy Principal, said the school initially came to know Rocketspark a few years ago at a Smart Waikato’s Secondary School Employer Partnerships (SSEP) meeting.

Last year, Rocketspark was invited to an SSEP meeting at Cambridge High and indicated it was on the hunt for a student who would be a good candidate for some work experience.

Ryan said when the school asked him if he wanted

school hours and during the Christmas holidays he came in for a few full days.

“I migrate websites from other providers like Squarespace, Wix and all of those. So, I copy the website and create it on Rocketspark.”

Ryan likes doing a lot of development for fun.

“I play computer games too. I like to play Minecraft.

I also like to play an older game called Overwatch. It’s a first-person shooter game, but it has a bit more lore to it.”

FAITH IN WAIPĀ

NO PLANET B

It’s tough being responsible

No greater love…

By Peter Matthews

By Murray Smith, Senior Leader, Bridges Church

At the dinner table last night, the conversation turned to the pandemic and the observation was made that this time last year we were in Level 4 lockdown.

There was a little bit of nostalgia for the family time that we enjoyed for that month, and we talked of the ‘dinner wars’ that we had.

Each member of the family picked a recipe and, perhaps with a little help, produced the whole dining experience themselves, including table setting, decor, and dress code.

The evenings were given a score out of 10 by each person and my wife was the eventual winner with her three course French extravaganza.

Naturally, the suggestion was made that we should do it again and so the recipe cards came out and there was debate over who should do what.

Our family has increased by two in the last year so this time round will be a larger and more diverse affair, as we now have two meat eaters in the family - for whom we attempt to cater as respectfully as possible.

My daughter suggested that she would like to make tuna pasta - a long-time favourite.

But the Netflix documentary ‘Seaspiracy’ is large on the landscape at the moment and so the parental response was that we would not buy tuna.

“Why not?” asked the 11-year-old.

I attempted to explain over-fishing, in particular in the context of the larger predatory species.

The response around the table was one of a general ‘sigh and slump’. I agree; being environmentally responsible is a drag. The

comment is often made that a vegetarian diet is a bit boring - and so it can be. I’ve certainly never been a fan of tofu.

My choice for my own attempt at dinner was going to be sushi, and still might be, although now I am struggling with that; I love sushi but it’s pretty heavy on the fish.

Should I just forget about conscience and do it anyway? Surely that’s not going to make a difference to anyone, and family time is important.

As I am sure people will write and tell me, there have been plenty of challenges to the veracity of the claims made in Seaspiracy, and as I’ve said before, I’d love to be able to believe that climate change is no big deal and is not caused by humans.

Don’t forget that 99% of all species that ever existed are now extinct - what’s a few more? It would be nice to believe things are not as bad as we’re told but would that be rational?

Belief that the current rate of climate change, and environmental (including fish stocks) degradation is human-induced, and that something can be done about it, is now so mainstream that most governments of the world are in line and pledging immediate and wide-ranging action.

I guess the sushi and the tuna pasta will have to be tuna-less.

Salmon’s alright though, isn’t it?

This Sunday is Anzac Day. Throughout the land, remembrance services will be held as our nation reflects and honours those who served on battle fields in faraway places.

It began as a commemoration of what took place in 1915 when Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (Anzac) landed at Gallipoli in Turkey, but it has broadened to include both world wars as well as other military interventions that Kiwi servicemen and women have been engaged with.

War is ugly, facilitating the worst kinds of depravity humans are capable of. But it can also bring out the best, that which is most noble as well.

One notable example of courage and bravery is that of John Simpson who died 106 years ago, on May 19, 1915, aged just 22.

He never fired a single shot in war, nor had he ever been ordered to leave the Gallipoli trenches in any of the senseless attacks across No Man’s Land.

My knowledge of brave Australians and Kiwis who won the Victoria Cross during the Gallipoli campaign is limited. Yet I join countless others in knowing Simpson by name.

Though unheralded as a recipient of any kind of military award, he is nonetheless remembered for his deeds beyond most.

John Simpson Kirkpatrick was born in Britain. He joined the merchant navy and jumped ship in Australia.

Settling there, with the outbreak of war in August 1914, he enlisted in the Australian Imperial Force hoping to get a free passage back to England.

As fate would have it, he ended up serving at Gallipoli the following year as Private John Simpson in the 3rd Field

Ambulance, Australian Army Medical Corps.

He served from the time of landing at Gallipoli on 25 April until he was killed in action on 19 May. His brief time of service, a little over three weeks, was enough to earn him a reputation that has become the epitome of the Anzac spirit.

Simpson began his work as a stretcher bearer, but the loss of co-bearers reduced him to carrying the wounded on his back.

The experience of giving children seaside donkey rides in England stood him in good stead as he began to use donkeys to carry the wounded.

He transported wounded men day and night from the fighting to the beach at Anzac Cove, braving sniper fire and deadly shrapnel.

It is believed his activities saved the lives of about 300 men… ultimately Simpson sacrificed his life, a bullet piercing his heart under machine gun fire.

Jesus’ words are relevant. “No man has greater love than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.” Simpson knew saving the lives of injured comrades could cost him his own life.

The Bible contrasts giving one’s life for a friend, with giving your life - for an ‘enemy’.

“It is an extraordinary thing for someone to die and give their life for a friend - but God showed His great love by sending Christ to die for us even while our sin estranged us.”

What’s our response to such sacrifice?

Dutch migrants recall Liberation Day

By Lisa Merts

It’s a year late because of Covid, but the Netherlands Society Waikato will commemorate 75+1 year of Liberation Day and freedom later this month with an exhibition.

On May 4, 1945, at 7.30 am, at the headquarters of Field Marshal Montgomery on the Lüneburger Heide, a document was signed that contained the absolute capitulation of the German armies in the Netherlands, North-West Germany, Sleeswijk-Holstein and Denmark. The agreement was that all weapons would be silenced as from 8am on the next day, May 5.

This day is and remains for the

Netherlands the end of five years of occupation by Germany, the end of the Second World War. In hotel “De Wereld” in Wageningen the Canadian General Foulks delivered the capitulation document to the German General Blaskowitz and both signed this document, the “Instrument of Surrender”.

The liberation of the Netherlands was celebrated August 3, the birthday of the then Queen Wilhelmina. Every year after 1945 the commemoration of the dead has been on the evening of May 4 and the liberation celebrations have been on May 5.

In 2020 it was 75 years ago that Germany surrendered and the Netherlands was again a free country. The Netherlands

Society Waikato had planned to organise an exhibition to commemorate this event, but due to the Covid-19 lockdown it had to be postponed. This year we can celebrate 75+1 years of freedom and the exhibition will go ahead from April 27 to May 2.

In general the exhibition will give an idea of life during the occupation. There are items on display from a scrapbook with news articles, kept by a person who lived through these years of occupation and oppression. Also on display are documents about a New Zealand soldier, who lost his young life as the plane in which he was a navigator got shot down over the Netherlands. Two hundred and twenty six New Zealand soldiers have their final resting place at a Dutch cemetery and six had

clear links to the Waikato.

These men lost their lives so we could again live in a free country. We will never forget and be forever grateful to them.

The Tauwhare Military Museum has been generous to supply on loan some of the military equipment and smaller weaponry used at that time. The Hamilton Military Vehicle Club will stage a parade on May 1 at 11am.

The exhibition is in the hall of the Netherville Retirement Village, 4 Admiral Crescent in Hamilton, from April 27 to May 2. Opening hours are from 10am to 4pm.

Admission is by gold coin donation.

Lisa Merts is a committee member of the Netherlands Society Waikato.

Promotional Livestock shipment funding available ban raises questions Waipā District Council has opened its District Promotion and Community Event Funds for applications to showcase our communities and boost wellbeing.

The aim of the District Promotion Fund is to promote the Waipā district as an attractive place to live, work, invest in or to visit. The fund has $150,000 available.

The Community Event Fund supports grass-roots events which create opportunities to build and celebrate community pride and for communities to connect and celebrate Waipā’s diversity. The fund supports not-for-profit community organisations hosting inclusive, low-cost events in the community. The fund has $30,000 available.

The events give Waipā the chance to promote what it has to offer to visitors to the district and its own residents.

Mayor Jim Mylchreest says the fund is designed to attract, grow and enhance major events that add to the vibrancy and personality of the district.

“The overall theme of the funds it to think about what we can and should do, together, to get the best possible outcome for Waipā.

“Promoting these events and bringing

more people into the region is great for injecting money into the local economy, with people requiring accommodation and eating out at local eateries.”

Last year 33 events benefitrf from the two funds including the Waka Ama National Sprint Championships, Kihikihi Speedway Opening, Feast Waikato and Waipa Fun Run. For more information go to waipadc. govt.nz/our-services/grants-and-funding.

By Blair Voorend

After the Government announced last week livestock export by sea will be banned left many in the industry were left wondering what is in store for them.

Progressive Livestock agent Colin Old, who covers Western-Central Waikato and Te Awamutu West regions, said the ban will have many in the industry worried as the trade has kept “many a farmer a float” during difficult periods.

“In reality China is paying twice what any NZ farmer is willing to pay for the same stock.”

He says the decision will impact on stock agents who will lose a significant amount of income.

“For myself and peers, this will mean a third of our income is lost easily as it also means the traders that buy for export will look at alternatives at a lot less value,” he said.

Agriculture Minister Damien O’Connor launched a review into livestock exports nearly two years ago with options ranging from improving systems to a total ban.

After the review, the decision was made for a total ban from 2023.

Figures from Stats NZ show more than 100,000 breeding cattle were shipped to China last year, to the value of $255.89 million.

The figures for 2021 are expected to be higher - 150,000 cattle valued at $500 million.

Federated Farmers animal welfare spokesperson Wayne Langford said that the ban announcement has come somewhat out of the blue.

“The government has seen fit to bring in this ban, but Federated Farmers has no information about any breaches of the high standards relating to livestock exports,” he said.

Last September’s Gulf Livestock 1 sinking which claimed 40 lives and saw 6000 cattle drown, inflamed debate about live shipments.

Wayne Langford said the disaster had led to further requirements being made such as restricting stocking density on vessels to 90 percent of former limits and an increased feed stock that ensure at least 20 per cent of feed was available for unplanned delays during the voyage.

New products boost safety and comfort

By Viv Posselt

Several new products and services recently introduced at Cambridge i-SITE have boosted those that have long been available to outdoorsy locals and tourists.

Destination Cambridge CEO Miff Macdiarmid said they include personal locator beacon hire, topographical maps, a new selection of freeze-dried foods, additional outdoor safety products, selected DOC hut tickets and passes, and new maps for both Pirongia and Sanctuary Mountain walks.

Miff said until now the closest personal locator beacons available for hire were from Hamilton. There had been a high level of interest shown in the new service, she said, adding that those keen to hire a beacon need to book in advance.

“They are really easy to use, and are ideal for trampers, walkers and hunters … anyone going off the beaten track. We ensure the battery is at full capacity and test them before hiring them out, and we do all the paperwork required,” she said. “They are great for locals. People can hire one for $30 for three days, or $40 for a week. We have an arrangement with a Southland company who monitors the beacons 24/7. It is well worth it from a safety

perspective.”

Also going well is the advance purchase of selected DOC hut tickets, both for serviced and un-serviced huts. Miff said it was possible to purchase six-month and 12-month hut passes as well, taking the ‘chance’ element out of securing DOC accommodation.

After considering several options, Miff has settled on stocking a selection of Radix freeze-dried meals. The Hamilton-based company produces a range of freeze-dried meals suitable for tramping, hunting or athletic training and Miff said anyone not finding exactly what they were after could custom order through Cambridge i-SITE. Also new is a set of detailed topographical maps for this area, and new mini-maps for Pirongia and Sanctuary Mountain.

“These are exclusive to us and are really easy-to use,” Miff said. “They’re ideal for day-trippers. Some areas, particularly around Pirongia, have several entry and exit points and these maps give a very clear visual of where you are.”

The new products add to a range of outdoor accessories now available at the i-SITE retail outlet, including walking poles, solar batteries, first aid kits and emergency blankets.

Given rides third

By Andy McGechan Raglan’s Brandon Given was a top five finisher when the national motorcycling cross-country series was wrapped up near Balclutha last weekend.

Hawke’s Bay’s Tommy Watts recorded back-to-back wins to earn his first national cross-country title.

Multi-purpose turf opened

St Peter’s Catholic School marked the end of the last school term with a grand opening of its $140,000 multipurpose turf.

The project has been a long-time in development, going through two school principals, Debra White and Grant Stuart, during the developmental phase, leaving current principal Anita Asumadu to

organise the fencing and wrap up the final touches.

The lengthy timeframe also set the school on a five-year fundraising path. Helping contribute funds during that time has been the school’s Parent, Teacher and Friends Association (PTFA), the Diocese of Hamilton, and numerous fundraising events including the

popular Waipā Fun Run. Principal Asumadu told those at the opening that projects like this ‘don’t happen overnight’ and this one had required huge effort from the school community as well as from others further afield.

She thanked businesses who were involved in bringing the project to fruition, most of whom attended the

opening.

The sprawling turf will be used for sport and as a play area for the children. Students from Hamilton’s Sacred Heart Girls College were there on the day to give a demonstration of a variety of sports that can be played on the turf.

The final cost included lights and fencing.

St Peter’s Catholic School principal Anita Asumadu celebrates the opening of the multi-purpose turn with her immediate predecessor Grant Stuart.

Cambridge is up for the cups Waikato Cup football comes to Cambridge this weekend as local leagues take a break from competition.

Cambridge FC will be represented in the men’s Waikato Cup on Saturday by two teams while the club’s women’s team will start their cup campaign on Sunday.

Spectators will be able to watch Cambridge’s Division 1 team host West Hamilton United’s reserves at John Kerkhof Park on Saturday (12.30pm).

The club’s other entry, the Division 4 side, travel to Hamilton’s Raymond Park for a cup tie against Hamilton Wanderers Crimson (2.45pm).

Both teams are eager to conjure a decent cup run, breaking a 13-year streak of near-misses for the Cambridge club.

Having won the trophy in 2008, Cambridge sides have been beaten finalists three times since (2009, 2013 and 2017).

The women’s team meet Tokoroa at John Kerkhof Park on Sunday (kick off 1pm) and will be looking to repeat their 2014 cup campaign when brought home the trophy.

Meanwhile, the club’s top three men’s teams will all travel for important games in their respective competitions.

The Reds head to Auckland to play Fencibles United in the Lotto NRFL second division. With Cambridge in third place, and United in second spot, the match will help sort the early challengers for the title and a chance to win promotion to the first division.

The first team kicks off at 3pm while the Reds’ U-23 reserves play Fencible’s second team at 12.30pm.

Last weekend, Cambridge won their third match in a row – the first time the side has achieved that since August 2018 – when they cruised past Papatoetoe 4-1.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning, We will remember them.

Cambridge try to find a way through a crowded Tokoroa defence.

First half goals from Jack Portegys, Josh Nooijen, Daniel Clarkin and Ewan Donald gave the Reds a 4-1 lead at the break and the side controlled the second half to make sure of the points.

In the reserves game, father-son combo Nick and Jack Sickelmore created a bit of club history, playing in the same line-up in the Cambridge U-23s, who lost 6-0 to Papatoetoe.

Competition rules allow up to five players over 23 to play and when the Reds faced a shortage of goalkeepers last weekend, Nick Sickelmore (49) donned the gloves to play alongside son Jack (18).

Though it’s undoubtedly happened before, having father and son together for a NRFL fixture is rare and not been seen at the club for at least a decade.

Cambridge’s third side lost their WaiBOP Championship game to Tokoroa 3-2 after blowing a two-goal half-time lead.

With Tokoroa’s goalkeeper sent off just before half-time, the game looked to be clearly balanced in Cambridge’s favour, but the visitors pulled off a deserved upset with three goals in the second half.

Middle School cricketers triumph

By Steph Bell-Jenkins

Cambridge Middle School has won the 2021 Waikato Intermediate and Middle Schools’ cricket competition.

The team travelled to the University of Waikato on April 13 to take on nine other teams from around the region.

The Crag Hickey coached team played four matches, winning with a clean sweep and taking out the oneday tournament on points.

“We were a little bit lacklustre in our first game against Peachgrove Intermediate, but a nail-biting victory fired the boys up,” manager and teacher Ian Harrison said.

“Our two batsmen managed to capitalise on some fumbles from the fielding team and run three overthrows on the second-to-last ball to win, which was quite comical to be honest and a bit of a hair pulling

Anzac Day, A day of remembrance and appreciation.

moment for me, but they got there.”

Mr Harrison said the team was “very strong this year”, with depth that allowed plenty of player rotation through the batting and bowling line-ups.

The result leaves Tokoroa at the top of the competition, with Cambridge in second place and facing a trip this Saturday to third-placed Whakatane Town.

In other games last weekend, Cambridge’s Division 1 team beat Claudelands Rovers 3-1 with goals from Player of the Day Joe Gifford, Kieran Ashburner and Peter Buesnel.

The Division 4 team maintained their 100% winning record with a 2-0 win against Putaruru Rangers. Shane Gray provided the assists for both goals scored by Andrew Myers.

Goalkeeper Saxon Edwards saved a penalty, earning a Player of the Day award.

In the Over 35s league, Cambridge D1s lost 4-0 at home to Ngaruawahia United while the club’s second team won their first match, beating Northern United Old Boys 3-1.

Scorers were Jonno Court, Gareth Bird and Gary Smith.

In the WaiBOP Federation Youth League, Cambridge U-15s lost 4-2 to Claudelands Rovers after trailing 2-0 at half-time.

Cambridge scorers were Cameron Smith and Lucah De Roo. Cambridge women had a bye last weekend.

Champions lose at Tech

Hautapu tasted a rare defeat in senor men’s rugby on Saturday at the hands of Fraser Tech.

Te Awamutu Sports scored its first win at home, beating Matamata 25-7 on a day which saw Ōtorohanga pip Morrinsville 31-17.

Melville and Tech lead the top flight with two wins and a bonus point each.

It was back to the reality of tight premiership rugby for reigning champions against a very talented and committed Fraser Tech side.

Fraser Tech sealed the deal minutes out from the final whistle after defending a narrow lead with determination then turning defence into attack with a runaway end to end try by pacey winger Liam CoombesFabling to take the win by 20–10.

Tech took advantage of a Hautapu team down on its usual effective execution to come away with a deserved win. Hautapu

certainly had its chances to take the lead throughout the second half in this tight game, however became a little predictable in its tactics and was unable convert opportunities into points.

On a day when the result disappointed there were still fine performance from loose forward Tom Florence and hooker Nick Jeffcote in the forwards, while Quincy Ngatai was lively at halfback and Kaea Hongara always looked at his penetrative best from fullback.

Hautapu’s Development side was also beaten by Fraser-Tech – 43-10. The previous week’s win faded to a distant memory as home side rattled in three quick converted tries in the opening 15 minutes.

Hautapu’s Developments best were flanker-hooker Oscar Anderson, fellow loose forward Cam Robinson and backs Cam Steele and skipper Mitch Pettit who never stopped trying.

Bridge battle to Hautapu

OPEN FRIDAY 11am-8 SATURDAY 11am-3

Loose forward Reid Shackelton powers his way through Leamington Colts defenders.

Hautapu celebrated a 33-15 win at Leamington when the clubs clashed at Colts level in front of a large crowd last weekend.

It was the first Battle of the Bridges clash at this level for some years and Hautapu came out firing with a converted try in the first five minutes, from a charge down by Tuhoe Kake.

Hautapu seemed to have the edge over Leamington out wide with another try to fullback Ed White, which was well converted

by Rique Miln, however the game developed into a game of attrition as the teams traded tries which saw Leamington hold a narrow 15 – 14 lead at the halftime break.

played under ‘Game On rules’ which meant uncontested scrums.

The Game On approach is applied if a team, in this case Hautapu, has 15 and/or fewer players or doesn’t have enough frontrowers.

Hautapu controlled the second half both.

Their game structures came to life and were able to play the game at a quick pace which suited them.

A solid platform by the forwards allowed the backline to launch numerous attacks, two of which resulted in tries to Mercedes Hodge and Logan Webber from set play.

Hautapu’s defence – at one time down to 14 players because of injuries - showed real character to keep Leamington scoreless in the second half.

70 for Leamington

Leamington turned on the style on its sponsors’ and old timers’ day as the seniors scored successive wins over Ōhaupō.

The Five Stags Senior A team were in rampant form, scoring 11 tries enroute to a 70-3 win which took them to the top of the table.

Tries were scored by Mitch Abbott 2, Hayden Ivil 2, James Fraser, Thomas

Fraser, Sam Monkley, Jonah Haycock, Drew Bootten and Matt Lyttle, The Ōhaupō Senior B team were short of players so Leamington topped them up with a few reserves, and the game was shortened just after half time with Leamington winning 50-0 The club’s Under 85Kg was beaten 20-11 by University after falling 10

points behind.

New midfielder Dylan Lord and a penalty from Shaun Higgins narrowed the gap by half time and Leamington lead for a while, 11-10 after a Riley Dixon penalty.

With five minutes to go University found another gear and took the game away from Leamington scoring two quick tries.

Hunters find healthy Pureora population

Hunters from across the North Island converged on Te Kuiti’s Department of Conservation workshop on Sunday (18 April) as the annual Pureora Hunting Competition culminated with the event’s prizegiving, a bull roaring competition and stories of the ones that got away.

The popular hunting competition is organised by the Department of Conservation’s Maniapoto District but was cancelled last year due to the nationwide COVID-19 lockdown.

DOC’s Maniapoto District Operations Manager Graham Kimber says Sunday’s prizegiving saw 44 red deer heads entered for judging, while the new pig hunting category

resulted in one young hunter taking away a $500 prize.

The deer heads were scored using the Douglas Score system, with Pureora resident Joe Webb the main prize winner, presenting a head which scored 295 1/4 points.

The Douglas Score is a system for measuring and evaluating antlers, horns and tusks of New Zealand big game animals by symmetrical size.

“The total number of heads judged this year is a little less than we’ve seen previously, but for many of our competitors just having the opportunity to hunt in Pureora and share tales of their time in the forest is the drawcard,” Graham Kimber says.

Association, attended to support the event and man the association’s stand at the prizegiving event.

“There’s some good heads this year, and I think the extra year of growth – since we couldn’t hunt much last year – has made a difference,” he says.

The annual competition is an important opportunity for DOC to assess the deer population in the forest, one of the most popular hunting areas in the North Island.

As well as the judging of heads, Sunday’s event included displays by local conservation groups, spot prizes, and avian aversion training for dog owners who venture into the forest.

Juniors at the stadium

A month after Hautapu sport established its junior programme 100 of its youngsters and parents enjoyed a great night at FMG stadium last Saturday. They walked around the field with many other clubs in the junior club march past before the Chiefs scored a dramatic win over the Crusaders.

Spring targets beckon Levante

If Levante is going to become a Group One winner, she’s going to have to wait until she’s a five-year-old.

The exciting four-year-old mare ended a good yet somewhat frustrating 2020-21 season when she finished fourth last Saturday in the Gr.1 Fiber Fresh New Zealand Thoroughbred Breeders’ Stakes (1600m) at Te Rapa.

Ken Kelso, who trains Levante at Matamata with his wife Bev, said no plans had been made about what her potential targets would be next season.

“She’s spelling now,” he said.

“We haven’t at this stage decided what will happen with her next year. We will have a talk about it with her owners and make decisions a

little bit later.”

Levante jumped better than usual at Te Rapa and though she then got back, she was still within striking distance at the turn, about four lengths from the lead.

However, she couldn’t make much ground in the straight on the Slow8 track, finishing 1-1/4 lengths behind her nemesis Avantage and a length behind Coventina Bay and Travelling Light, who dead-heated for second.

Levante has won on slow going before, doing so in a rating 72 event at Matamata last year.

“I think the ground was probably a contributing factor,” Kelso said.

“She can run 32 for her final 600, but to do that she needs good ground.”

Levante won three of her six starts as a fouryear-old – normally a great return, but there was still a feeling of what might have been.

Also out for a spell is another promising mare in Les Crayeres. Owned by Sir Peter Vela, Les Crayeres won four of her last six races this season and will be aimed at black type races next season.

“She’s only going to get better with age,” Kelso said. “She’s won up to a mile at this stage but as she gets stronger she should get further.”

Kelso’s winter team will include Limentis, a winner of two races who has her third start this campaign over 1400m at Ellerslie on Saturday, and Shoshone, who has looked very good while winning four of her five starts on wet tracks. – NZ Racing Desk

“There was a strong sense of excitement and camaraderie among this year’s entrants, many of whom commented on how pleased they were to be able to get out into the forest this year and compete again.”

Head judge Mark Sarjeant, judging the competition for the first time, says the heads entered were to a very good standard, with a number scoring between 250 and the winning 295 1/4 points. The solid head scoring reflects a Pureora herd population in good shape, particularly given the number of animals taken as part of this year’s competition, he says.

Firehawks turn up the heat

By Roy Pilott

League is back on the rise in Waipā.

The Te Awamutu Sports Firehawks will play in the reserve grade of the new season’s Waikato competition under coach Victor Heke, and the club has also established male and female Under-15 and under-9 teams and a senior women’s squad.

The Firehawks’ last senior competitive encounter was in 2019 when they were beaten in the grand final of the reserve grade.

But the club was unable to bounce back during Covid year.

Heke and his wife Tania moved to Te Awamutu from south Auckland 15 months ago – taking the same path their three adult children did to return to Waipā where Heke’s father grew up.

The whanau has embraced the Firehawks and are helping promote a strategic plan to develop the game for men, women and youngsters.

Ultimately, Heke wants to see the Firehawks footing it with the elite of Waikato rugby league – the

likes of Taniwharau and Turangawaewae.

The first step was to be welcomed back into the Waikato fold in a reserve grade competition comprising nine teams – including three, Firehawks, Hukanui and Ngaruawahia Lions, who are not represented in the senior competition.

That competition includes the top teams from Turangawaewae, Taniwharau, Hamilton City Tigers, Ngaruawahia Panthers and College Old Boys.

But while league is returning to Te Awamutu, the teams will be playing out of town.

Senior games will be played in Hamilton, Huntly and Ngaruawahia and the juniors will travel each week to play on the expansive home of junior league in Waikato – Hopuhopu.

To complete the set, the Firehawks also have a women’s team which has found competition in the Bay of Plenty, and again it will mean travel each week.

Heke’s primary aim is to rebuild a culture of loyalty

League is back in Te Awamutu at senior and junior level - and these youngsters are delighted. Pictured from left are Lu-Khan Ratima, Uenuku Emery, Bentley Croucher, Joaquin Clark, Ngā Himeona Heke and Te Ua Rauhihi-Davis .

in the club – to have players who are proud to wear the jersey of their home-town club and want to contribute to the club.

“Two percent of players here make it to the NRL, and that’s great – I want to concentrate on the other 98 per cent and keep 80 per cent of them in the game,” Heke, who has two decades of coaching at senior level in Auckland to his name, said.

Part of the strategic planning for the club will include developing pathways for young players to progress through what at present is a muddied pathway higher level league.

A whanau day for the new senior men’s team – featuring just seven from the 2019 squad – drew 28 players.

Heke will be able to name just 17 each week in his match day squad – meaning players will miss out.

“It’s not easy – but it is possible if you create a strong culture and loyalty,” he said.

Heke will look to build his team around the Howell brothers – Isaac and Tāwhiritengakau – son Richard and son-in-law Ronnie Adams. He also has the services of another son, Himeona.

Dorta Adams, Ronnie’s wife and Heke’s daughter,

Victor Heke

led the Upper Central Stallions to the national women’s title last season and will lead the women’s team.

Heke is pitching for a top four spot for his new charges in their first season.

“We have four games before the bye, and my goal is two wins from that, then three wins from the following five games,” he said.

“A top four place would be a highlight and anything after that a bonus.”

Meanwhile, league is likely to return to Te Awamutu’s Albert Park on Anzac Day Monday – there are plans for a couple of age-group fixtures there, and one of those teams, Hamilton City Tigers, could include Te Awamutu based youngsters.

Heke said the Firehawks will train at Albert Park and enjoyed great support from Te Awamutu Sports.

Club launches junior sessions

By Steph Bell-Jenkins

Cambridge Racquets Club has started a regular club afternoon to bring new and existing junior squash players together in a fun social setting.

“Junior Squash Just Rock Up” sessions, aimed at 5-15 year-olds, will run on Tuesdays from 3.30pm6.30pm.

“Sometimes clubs can be really daunting, so it’s nice to have something structured to introduce new players to the club and the game,” CRC manager Wayne Peterson said.

“We also wanted to provide a pathway for the many juniors already in the club who are having coaching but not really getting into fun social game situations.”

The rock up sessions will be broken into three hour-long slots, with the 3.30pm-4.30pm slot targeting younger, beginner players and the later slots catering to those with more experience.

“Within those three slots we should be able to get a nice grouping of age and skill, while offering flexibility to work around players’ other after-school commitments,” Wayne said.

“We’ll have some kids who can rally quite well and we can gear them up and get them going and others who will need a bit more coaching.”

The rock up sessions will be coordinated by experienced competitive squash player Suzie Halliday, whose children Rosie (9) and Carter (5) are keen to get into the game.

“I joined the committee at the start of the year with a bit of an agenda to get this up and running,” Suzie said.

“I grew up watching my mum play squash and have been playing since I was a

Junior Squash Just Rock Up coordinator Suzie Halliday (back) with her children Carter (left) and Rosie.

junior myself, so I thought it’d be cool to create a place where kids can come together to learn new skills and take part in some fun games and activities.”

Sessions start at $5.

Junior Squash Just Rock Up afternoons will run in terms 2 and 3, with registrations open right through May. For more information email manager@crc.org.nz.

School club launched

A total of 130 guests, including representatives from Waikato Hockey and past coaches of school teams, attend the launch of the Cambridge High Hockey Club last week.

They heard a presentation about what the club plans to do and the hockey playing pathways that exist for players.

The launch also provided an opportunity to share the history of hockey at the school.

A highlight for many was learning that Sir Mark Todd was once a captain of the boys’ team and a coach called Rev Ian Mills had a son called Merlin play. Merlin was something of a hockey wizard, being an early Waikato hockey representative team member from the school.

Michelle Hollands was the guest speaker, she had 100 caps for the Blacksticks and competed in two Commonwealth Games and the Sydney Olympics.

Senior player Bastian Banks was tasked with interviewing Hollands, whose stories were captivating and advice was inspirational.

Spokesperson Glenys Bichan said the launch was a success and enjoyed “wonderful” community support.

The new club has started with six teams who will be playing in the first week of next term.

If you are a local business "looking for valuable business advice and tools, look to the Cambridge Chamber of Commerce, the benefits far outweigh the cost.
