Fortune favours Reds

By Roy Pilott

Cambridge football is in line for a six-figure windfall because a player it helped develop is now wearing one of the game’s most famous shirts.

Chris Wood, the Auckland born, Waikato developed All White, was sold by Burnley to Newcastle United for a sum estimated to be more than $47 million in January.

Cambridge – as well as Hamilton Wanderers – will collect a slice of the fee when it trickles down.

Wood wears the black and white striped number 20 shirt at Newcastle, playing in the “number nine” role worshipped by generations of Newcastle fans having

watched the likes of Alan Shearer, Malcolm Macdonald and Jackie Milburn play there.

Cambridge Club president Greg Zeuren told The News details of the payment are still to be confirmed, but the club is talking to Newcastle and hopes to have a Zoom meeting with Chris Wood. The club also retains a good relationship with the Wood family.

“I’ve become a Newcastle fan,” he said.

“This money comes at a time when we are looking at renewing our lease at John Kerkhof Park, that’s the first thing that has to happen.

The club is in superb shape – we have the best committee I’ve worked with, 540 juniors and nine senior teams.”

He said it was not a question of where the money would be spent – but how well

Julie and Grant in the crowd. It was the first time they had watched him play in Newcastle colours.

Wood is now one of the senior members of the All Whites, who have just completed a successful World Cup qualifying round in Qatar. That included a 7-1 win over New Caledonia with Jamie Searle making his debut in goal.

Whakatane born Searle, 21, who is on Swansea City’s books, also turned out for Cambridge in 2016 and attended St Peters School.

Cambridge plays in the third tier of the Northern League and starts its second division campaign on Saturday with a home match against Hibiscus Coast. Kick off is 3pm.

it would be invested. And that will be done with a view to supporting junior football because it was at junior level Wood first made his name at the club.

Wood, 30, was under the wing of former national league coach Roger Wilkinson after moving from Cambridge to Wanderers in 2007, and Wilkinson was influential in sending the then 15-year-old for successful trials at West Bromwich Albion.

Wilkinson said Wood’s physical presence was a factor in his success, but also his ability to be in the right place at the right time to score goals.

He was on the mark in Newcastle’s home win over Wolves last weekend – scoring from the penalty spot in a 1-0 win with his parents

David Speirs, Waikato Director of Regional Relationship, Waka Kotahi New Zealand Transport Agency, discusses what’s happening between Cambridge and Piarere and why some passing lanes will be removed.

and quite pleasant on the eye

On the road: the plans

Steph

Using State Highway 1 between Cambridge and Piarere without fear of crashes or delays is something our community is crying out for.

Improving roading infrastructure to keep people safer is a big part of our Road to Zero road safety strategy. The proven solution to preventing head-on crashes is to install physical separation between opposing traffic using flexible median barriers.

The 2.5km of flexible median barrier installed in December 2020 has already proven its worth. It’s been hit 40 times since installation. That’s 40 incidents which could otherwise have resulted in serious head-on crashes.

The current flexible median barrier will extend 5.4km further south. Installed in stages, the first is 1.6km of barrier ending on Cambridge’s side of Maungatautari Road.

This will be installed in conjunction with rehabilitation work scheduled after Easter.

Combining safety projects with maintenance work minimises disruption.

To ensure there’s enough room for emergency vehicles, maintenance activities and over-dimensional vehicles some road widening will be required, including

All over Cambridge, excited children are planning for two upcoming events.

Easter Bunny’s arrival and school holidays.

Easter egg hunts will get underway this weekend and the temptation will be there for opportunistic chocolate thieves to steal, especially their sibling’s Easter eggs and chocolatey treats. Be vigilant. Sharing is a preventative measure and nice to do also.

Once the sugar rush is over, school holidays commence and as always, it’s time for a reminder to watch out for our smaller citizens. Children’s behaviour can be unpredictable and spontaneous. Where this becomes a safety issue is on the roads.

While drop off traffic will reduce in s ueschool Alys AntiqArt e the& Finmornings, there will be more scooters, bicycles and pedestrians on our roads during the day. Be aware of your surroundings and watch out for children crossing the roads.

Parents, ensure your children wear cycle helmets and are aware of the road rules.

Use cycle paths where they are available.

We have many great options on that front

utilising space currently used as passing lanes in two places.

The first change will be to the northbound passing lane which terminates very close to Kentucky and Moana Roa Roads and other entrances. Slower drivers often travel close to the speed limit, so people overtaking using the passing lane travel significantly faster to overtake and then face issues merging back in.

Later the short southbound passing lane south of Maungatautari Road will be removed.

Vehicles accelerating to pass here often find themselves braking hard at the top of the hill when they encounter slower traffic negotiating SH1-29 intersection. This will become even more important when construction of the SH1-29 roundabout begins (currently planned for end of 2022).

Keeping people safe through the use of flexible median barriers is more important than keeping two short passing lanes with a history of serious crashes. Data shows these passing lanes provide no actual travel time benefit (annual weekday) and at peak times actually cause delays (Easter 2021 traffic).

We are also finalising designs and

providing opportunities for quality family rides.

School holiday travel plans also mean an increase in traffic on our highways. The journey is as much a part of the holiday as the destination and the aim is for everyone to arrive safely. Before you leave home, lock all doors and windows and ask a neighbour to keep an eye on things. Check that your vehicle is up to WOF standard, especially tyre tread. Everyone travelling in the car must have an approved restraint.

We continue to stop cars where children are being transported in the lap of another family member or just without appropriate car seats. Ensure that any car seats fit the child they are holding, are securely attached and seatbelts are worn correctly. Drive to the conditions, keep to the speed limit and take regular breaks if travelling any distance.

identifying implications for the 7.5km of road from the end of the Waikato Expressway through to Fergusson Gully Road. It’s complex due to many intersections, accessways and properties.

We will soon be bringing our suggestions to the community for input, before finalising designs and securing funding.

Safety improvements being considered include widening road shoulders, installing flexible median barriers, roundabouts, rumble strips and intersection speed zones.

The priority is reducing risk of head-on crashes and improving intersection safety, including at SH1-Karapiro Road.

Waka Kotahi is working on longer term plans to extend the expressway to Piarere however construction will be subject to funding availability and currently we will not apply for funding before the 2027-30 National Land Transport Plan period.

In the meantime, we will do what we can to make the existing road safer for everyone.

If you can stay in sight of the vehicle to provide updates while units respond, that is great. Consider getting a passenger to video the driver’s behaviour.

Video evidence is great in the case of a prosecution.

On the other hand, don’t be the impatient driver. Often cars seem to speed up just when a passing lane appears which many find frustrating. Sometimes this is purely due to the fact that the passing lane is on a straight, wider stretch of road after they had been navigating twists and turns. If a vehicle is holding up a long queue of cars behind it and the driver is not taking the opportunity to pull to the side when it can, call *555.

Impatience causes accidents.

Have a fantastic week and enjoy the break.

Medicine on the maunga

Resisting the squeeze

Waipā mayor Jim Mylchreest says his council will fight the move to squeeze more people into existing suburbs in towns like Cambridge and Te Awamutu. The Government says New Zealanders will benefit from changes to density planning laws from August 2022, but the mayor counters: “we want everyone to keep enjoying a laid-back lifestyle that offers space and character in our towns within a semi-rural setting”.

Book launch

A publication translated into Māori by Tom Roa Associate Professor of Māori and Indigenous Studies at Waikato University and a News columnist – will be launched at Tauwhare Gospel Chapel at 6.15pm tomorrow (Thursday). Te Tino Kōrero is the Māori translation of the comic The Story which has already been translated into 31 different languages. It is the first in a series of stories from the Bible in comic form.

Youth Awards

Nominations have opened for the 2022 Waipā District Council Youth Awards, celebrating the achievements of the Waipā district’s young people. Youth aged 14-18 years who live in or have attended school in Waipā for at least six months of the 2021 academic year are eligible to enter. Nomination forms are available from secondary schools, Council offices and libraries, or on the Council website at www.waipadc. govt.nz/youthawards.

Education centre work starts, stops

Maungatautari volunteer Ringi Morgan-Fifield with group members who brought notepads to document what she said.

By Benjamin Wilson

Eager minds are being introduced to rongoā, or Māori herbal medicine, using the flora on Sanctuary Mountain Maungatautari.

Rongoā rākau – an introduction to Māori herbal medicine, is taught by Maungatautari volunteer Ringi Morgan-Fifield.

While volunteering on the maunga, Ringi would regularly tell her workmates of the different plants she came across, and their properties.

Her sharing of knowledge was well received by her workmates and sparked the idea of sharing rongoā to a wider audience.

This led to the course’s debut in February.

Ringi became “hooked” with the practice after attending an introductory workshop on the medicinal properties of kawakawa, which led her into further studies and the eventual completion of a Diploma in rongoā.

Last Friday was a typical presentation for Ringi. Eleven plants were chosen for a group

of eight to learn about as they explored the maunga - kareao (supplejack), mamaku, and koromiko to name a few. The plants were picked specifically for their first aid properties.

“First aid in the bush, or wherever, because nobody gets hurt outside the doctor’s office,” Ringi said.

Ringi began her tour with a karakia, to acknowledge the group’s “pursuit of ancestral traditions.”

The different rongoā rākau (plants for first aid) were then introduced to the group members, as they came across them while exploring the mountain’s forest.

Ringi told the group what each plant did, and how to process them – like making tea with Kawakawa leaves to sooth digestion, or using the young tips of kareao as an emergency water source – she also emphasised the important tikanga, or etiquette, of the practice.

“If you’re harvesting it, that is your intention, not pulling off a leaf while on your way to the shops or something,” she said.

Ringi also spoke of the spiritual nature of rongoā.

She told the group that when engaging with rongoā, patients must be viewed in whole.

Consideration must be given to their mentally, spiritually, physicality.

“When I do a harvest, I say a karakia of why I want that plant. Without the karakia, you might as well have GP medicine.”

Ringi said many plants have different pūrākau, or stories associated to them.

She told the group of a pūrākau she once heard of kawakawa. She said the leaf, which is heart shaped, was given to Papatuānuku (The Earth mother) to mend her broken heart after her separation from Ranginui (The Sky Father). And kawakawa, in addition to its medicinal properties is often used to make wreaths for tangihanga (funerals).

Ringi sells some of the rongoā she makes in the Maungatautari visitor centre, and introduces visitors of the maunga to rongoā rākau every second Friday.

The Sanctuary Mountain Maungatautari education centre can be “game changing,” says lead educator Tali Jellyman.

Jellyman gave The News an update on the sanctuary’s new education centre, about a month into the construction.

The site was blessed by mana whenua in February before the first spade went into the ground. The base for the centre has since been levelled and perimeter posts have been installed.

But progress on the site has been halted due to the country’s rampant rise in Covid cases.

Jellyman hopes the centre will be completed in six months but says nothing can be certain.

The project has been in planning for five years and there is much anticipation for its completion.

“It has been a number of years in the making, so it is very exciting,” Jellyman said. “It’s probably going to be game changing for us.”

When completed, the centre will act as a base for the different education groups who visit the maunga.

The build site of the future education centre.

“It is really important for school and education groups, to have a space that is their base for the day. It helps to settle everyone down and get comfortable, so they can get more out of their day.”

The centre would also allow school groups to do activities that typically would be weather dependent, “but that’s on a basic needs level,” Jellyman said. She says the potential of the education centre is both vast and unknown.

The centre will be used to teach visitors natural history and the conservation work on the maunga. Jellyman says community groups and figures might also use the facility to provide their own teachings.

“It’s not just for me, it is for the whole community, (for example) we imagine one day there will be an incredible local scientist sharing their knowledge and their skills with the community, using that space to do so.”

The $846,000 education centre is one of several projects on Maungatautari. Preparations are also being made by the conservation team to introduce kākāpō.

RSA stages treble ceremony

By Viv Posselt

Cambridge Town Hall was the centre of a three-part RSA event on Monday that tied together ceremonies honouring former New Zealand and French service personnel and their families.

New Zealand’s Returned and Services Association national president BJ Clark was first presented with a korowai cloak.

That was followed by the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding between the NZRSA and France’s Union Nationale des Combattants (UNC) – the equivalent of the RSA in France – and the presentation of carved commemorative bowls to the French Embassy and the Cambridge-Le Quesnoy Friendship Association.

RSA national president BJ Clark said all three elements were “separate yet equally significant”. Before being fitted with the cloak, he said discussions around making one had been ongoing for several years. In 2019 RSA national kaumātua, Ronald Miki Apiti, approached tribal affiliates of Ngāti Te Wehi. Alecia Collins volunteered to weave the korowai. Ms Collins, who is of Ngāti Raukawa/Ngāti Hinerangi descent, completed the task earlier this year with support through the process from Diane Bradshaw of Ngāti Te Wehi and Ngāti Mahuta.

Clark said the gift reflected the kinship and identity of those who shared their wartime experiences.

Pictured after the ceremony were, from left, Donna Apiti, Diane Bradshaw, weaver Alecia Collins, BJ Clark, and Ronald Miki Apiti.

“I feel incredibly proud to be the first national NZRSA president to wear the cloak. It is a true honour and will be passed from president to president.”

The second ceremony, which was interrupted briefly by the piercing sound of the fire siren, marked the official signing of a Memorandum of Understanding by NZRSA chief executive Marty Donoghue and

the New Zealand-based Union Nationale des Combattants (UNC) representative Graham Yarrall.

The document means New Zealand veterans living in France will be now able to access support from the UNC, while French veterans living here can seek help through the RSA. Ms Mireille Borne of the Embassy of France in Wellington,

said France and New Zealand share a particularly significant relationship, made more special through the story of the liberation in November 1918 of Le Quesnoy and that event’s ties to Cambridge.

“Cambridge has a very special status in France… it is the only sister city we have in New Zealand.”

She said France and New

Zealand’s shared values remain evident today through New Zealand “standing by our side” in promoting the international rule of law as it pertains to the Ukraine conflict.

The third event of the day saw the presentation of two commemorative poppy bowls crafted by West Coast master carver Jimmy Gordon. One was presented to the Embassy of France in acknowledgement of the longstanding relationship between the two countries, and the other to the Le Quesnoy Friendship Society in Cambridge.

During lockdown, Gordon elected to carve a poppy bowl for every RSA in the country. He has made 218 in total, each one featuring a pounamu inlay gifted by iwi.

Clark told guests it was appropriate for the triple ceremony to take place in April, the month of the RSA Poppy Appeal. He said the 100-year-old organisation was actively encouraging younger veterans to join and was looking at different ways of operating, including delivering online services and, in some cases, moving away from traditional hospitality-based venues.

“RSAs must first and foremost remain focused on providing welfare support to veterans of all ages,” he said.

space to serve During all the uncertainty of running events at a red traffic light setting during Term 1, St Peter’s students still managed to support the following organisations with their creative fundraising ideas.

Ukraine via World Vision The situation in Ukraine has struck a chord with our students so, along with other Waikato schools, our Head Students set out to raise funds and awareness for the people of Ukraine via World Vision.

On Friday 25 March they sold 500 blue and yellow donuts and branded wristbands

to raise funds. Mamasdonuts provided the donuts at a reduced cost to enable as much profit as possible to go to this cause.

Earlier in the month, the Year 7 and 8 students had written letters to the Ukraine President offering their kind thoughts for a resolution to the conflict.

Cancer Society On Wednesday 30 March, over 50 students undertook a ‘Laps at Lunchtime’ event to raise funds for the Cancer Society. Given their traditional Relay for Life event at Claudelands had been cancelled, the Cancer Society encouraged fundraisers to Relay Your Way. Our Swears House leaders and Deans brainstormed for an event in a Red setting,

and came up with ‘Laps at Lunchtime’ where limited numbers were able to participate to raise awareness and funds for the cause.

A whopping $13,000 was raised for the Cancer Society by walking a collective total of 84kms or 213 laps, to enable the organistion to continue their fantastic work in the Waikato.

Salvation Army

In the Year 7 and 8 school, students have been ‘Making a Difference’, by donating household items for the Salvation Army to share with those in need in our Cambridge community.

Refugee Centre

Homestays wanted

One of the service opportunities undertaken by our Year 13 cohort, has been to engage in regular visits to the Refugee Orientation Centre (ROC) in Hamilton. The centre started in 2005 and was founded by a refugee who came from the Republic of Congo and found safety in New Zealand, only to experience the difficulties of navigating a new and foreign land. ROC has become a strong pillar of support to the refugees from countries as diverse and scattered as Syria and Rwanda, Colombia and Afghanistan. The ROC family includes over 80 volunteers, supporting practical programs for children, youth, and adults.

Easter Messages Jeff Parker Pastor, Elim Church Centre In a world that seems more crazy than ever and where the truth seems hard to find, some would ask…

Is there any real hope for the future? Is there really any hope that things could get better? Is it worth the effort to try to effect change?

In the midst of it all Easter comes in a timely fashion to remind us of where genuine hope comes from. Where is God when things are tough? He steps right into the middle of it and meets us where we are.

That’s what He did when on that first Easter weekend, instead of pouring out judgement on us for our wrongs, He took it upon Himself on a Roman cross. He died. All seemed lost. But on Sunday He rose to life and now offers life, real life, and eternal hope to all who would put their trust in Him. So yes, there is hope. It is realised fully when we fully trust the One who gives genuine hope.

Father Leonard Danvers St Peter’s Parish Cambridge In New Zealand we are fortunate in having ‘public holidays’ that allow us time to celebrate and reflect on important events and take a break from normal routines.

For Christians, Easter recalls and celebrates the Passion, Death and Resurrection of Jesus.

A time to reflect on the love of God in action in our world.

Someone wrote a poem about looking for “Easter Evidence”, and suggested the whole world was looking for some sure evidence that Christ was really alive. I don’t think Easter eggs, chocolate bunnies, hot cross buns

or any of the other commercial ventures of our time do anything to convince us that he is alive in our midst.

The writer of the poem declared that all he ever saw was people, other people like himself. Yet, every once in a while, he came upon someone whose very life was a type of resurrection experience. That’s really all the evidence we have. People who are alive with a kind of radiance, enthusiasm, and a zest for living that is in stark contrast to the jaded attitude that is seen in the lives of many.

To have the Easter risen Christ alive in one’s life is an experience that those who find it cannot deny or forget, for it changes and transforms the whole of one’s life and points us to something greater- namely Jesus. In the end that’s all the evidence our world needs, and we who call ourselves Christians, need to be that evidence.

St. Ignatius urged his followers to find God in everything. May we renew our commitment to be his witnesses in the world today and stand closer together in his circle of love, so that we can know again the joy of living his life and sharing his love. Happy Easter.

Dave Firth Pastor, Kaipaki Church The Passover festival was a celebration of God’s faithfulness in protecting the Israelite people and ultimately bringing them out of slavery and into freedom. For over 1400 years the Jewish people faithfully celebrated this event and its significance in protecting them from death. These days we celebrate ‘Easter’ but we’re really remembering the Passover during which Jesus went to the cross

and paid the debt for our sin.

These last couple of years have been strange. Lockdowns and restrictions have taken their toll on us, but we’ve realised we crave two things; safety and freedom.

It’s interesting that all those years ago those two same things were what God’s people were craving. They didn’t put their hope or trust in a government or in any person. They trusted in the Lord – the God of Israel. Incidentally ‘Israel’ means a people that wrestle with God. If that’s you, can I encourage you to stop wrestling. Trust Him and His promise to protect you and lead you to safety and freedom.

Joshua 1:5b ‘As I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will never leave you nor forsake you.’

Jeremy and Kath Lind Raleigh St Christian Centre On behalf of Raleigh St Christian Centre, we would like to wish everyone a blessed Easter. Martin Luther King Jr, the great civil rights activist, was a committed Jesus follower. He once said that ‘Jesus knew that the old eye-for-eye philosophy would leave everyone blind. Jesus did not seek to overcome evil with evil. He overcame evil with good. Although crucified by hate, Jesus responded with aggressive love.’

Jesus Christ is the most influential figure in the history of the world. Yet, He never left his region of the world, never held a position of power, or wrote a book. However, Jesus has the largest and most culturally diverse group of followers found in every part of the globe, and Jesus is still the most written about

individual. While his whole life is important, it’s his death and subsequent resurrection that began the revolution.

His followers subsequently realised he was God himself in human flesh sent to rescue the world. His followers haven’t always fulfilled his mandate, but the hope found in the message of Jesus is still real and relevant.

If you have never explored the message of Jesus, then we would encourage you to check a church out this Easter.

Aimee and Scott Noakes Corps Officers, Cambridge Salvation Army It’s a strange thing that we commemorate the death of a man who lived and died in relative obscurity. Roman historians wrote no saga, their Emperors paid no heed to the life of this desert wandering, trouble raising, social rule breaking pariah. His own community elites denounced the man who came from a good for nothing province in a good for nothing area on the far side of a cold and unforgiving empire. Jesus himself ventured on foot no further than we today could drive in a few hours.

Yet here we are, on the eve of Easter week turning our attention to this obscure man, who died and rose again. Not for his own benefit but for his love for us. Jesus teaches us that foremost we are to love God, after that we are to love others as we love ourselves, just as he exampled. Whether you (as I) believe in this Jesus as the Son of God, or maybe just as a good man that imparted some decently ethical lessons onto his followers, the lesson remains somewhat unchanged.

Love your neighbour as yourself. This Easter may you feel such love.

Cambridge’s free park run celebrated its fifth birthday and a return to some sort of normality with a 5km run and walk on the Te Awa River Ride on Saturday.

There were 53 finishers with Paul Johnson out of the blocks quickly and back home in a personal best of 18:25, still some way from the best time of 16:28 run by Jonny McKee in January 2020.

Since its debut, the Cambridge NZ park run has held 218 events, had 1884 finishers and 10,697 finishes with an average 50 participants each time.

The female record is held by Charli Miller who ran 18:57 in March 2018.

New event directors Jo Simpson and Miriam Ellis greeted participants on a glorious Waikato day.

The women hope to build up a new team of volunteers to join the 160 who have offered their services over the five years.

Eleven personal bests were recorded on the day, proof conditions were perfect.

The timed 5kms has been operating

in New Zealand for 10 years.

The Cambridge park run is held at the same time 8am and the same place,

New house leader lists targets

By Viv Posselt

Bolstering the pandemic fallout and ensuring the community knows where to find help are at the forefront of Gabrielle ‘Gabby’ Byrne’s mind as she settles into her new job as manager at Cambridge Community House’s (CCH).

“I think the emphasis has to be two-fold,” she said. “One is to ensure staff here are well supported at this stage of the pandemic.

They have been doing a great job in difficult circumstances. They’re well-qualified, responsible, caring and kind… I want to make sure they are supported through the challenges ahead.

“Second is to ensure the community knows that even in these confusing times, as levels keep changing, they can access help.

People need to know we are here and can help with whatever problems they may be experiencing. The pandemic has seen people come in who have never had to put up their hand to ask for help. It can be daunting. It is important for them to know they are safe here … they won’t be judged.”

Gabby knows all too well the effects the pandemic can have on staff and the community they serve. Most recently, she worked as health promotion team manager

New Cambridge Community House manager Gabby Byrne, flanked by senior counsellor Jill Dimond and Trust chair Carolyn Casey.

with the Waikato DHB’s Public Health Unit.

She started just before Covid hit and almost immediately swung into a co-ordinated pandemic response that she said her team handled brilliantly.

“You bring every bit of expertise and knowledge into a role like that, and together with others, form a tight team that gets the

job done,” she said, suggesting the same would apply at CCH. She certainly has the chops for it.

Gabby is familiar with Cambridge and its many social services and groups. She came to the town 21 years ago after returning from the UK where she had worked for the National Autistic Association and then as

Alys Antiques & Fine Art

a trainer in an aged care facility. Both jobs made good use of her combined tertiary qualifications which include a degree in psychology and post graduate qualifications in human nutrition and special education.

While her boys attended Cambridge’s St Peter’s Catholic School, Gabby worked there as a teacher aide and served on the PTA, all the while running community exercise classes through Sport Waikato. Once the boys moved to high school, she shifted full-time to Sport Waikato and spent almost nine years managing their Active and Well programme across Waipā.

The sweep of experience has given her a solid understanding of local needs, and the range of groups on hand to help. She gets why a well-supported team is critical, particularly during a pandemic, and knows how that need grows in tough times like these.

Gabby had looked at the CCH leadership role once before, but the time wasn’t right.

“Now it is,” she said. “I have my mum living with me now, so to work locally seemed a natural fit.”

Cambridge Community House Trust chair Carolyn Casey said the Board was ‘super happy’ to have Gabby join them, particularly as the workload continues to increase.

The opportunity of a lifetime…

By Murray Smith, Senior Leader, Bridges Church

On occasions our family has taken time to wander through a cemetery and look at gravestones of those who, over the passing of many years, have died. If this sounds like a morbid thing to do with your kids let me assure you, it’s not.

As we’ve stood and looked at the places where people have been buried, we’ve read their names... seen a little of who their loved ones were… sometimes they too, lie close by.

Occasionally we’ve learned some detail of their death... we’ve looked at the years they lived, sometimes very short, others longer.

We’ve talked and wondered about the stories that are untold and unknown, concerning the lives of these people.

Each one of them a life that began with promise from God...a person made in His image and whom God knew - even before they were formed.

To some people, walking through a cemetery may seem a weird thing to do...but it can be thought provoking, we’ve found.

And it stirs our desire to live to the full intention of what God has for us...in the time we have.

One of the confronting aspects of a cemetery visit is not just that people are buried there - but what has been buried with these people.

What dreams, what treasure lies buried with them? What songs were never written that lie buried with these ones, what works of art never got painted or sculpted, what books were never authored, what poems weren’t penned?

Remember these were people made in the image of their Creator- full of marvel and potential. Did they pass leaving unfulfilled creative ideas undone… ways to better

humanity, to alleviate suffering and make a difference?

Were there inventions that might have been, but they were buried - locked away, perhaps shut down often by fear, repressed within the one who held them?

As we’ve stood with our children and read the inscriptions of those who lie buried - and as we’ve talked, a paramount issue for us, is their eternal state. Are they in heaven?

Since death is not the cessation of existence and human beings are eternal with a future destiny beyond the grave, it’s an important question.

As we approach Easter, specifically Resurrection Sunday, April 17, 2022, it’s the time when Christians will remember Jesus Christ’s death on a cross.

But the particular focus is not His death, rather an empty tomb.

His resurrection, attested to by hundreds who were not simultaneously hallucinating, is the triumph of Easter. Without His resurrection, His death would have been in vain.

Having promised He would rise again, Jesus conquered the grave. Death has lost its sting.

He said, “I am the resurrection and the life, whoever believes in me though they were dead yet shall they live.” Here’s the promise of eternal life - to all who receive Him. Choosing to secure the gift of eternal life is the most important decision we’ll ever make.

This Easter remember the opportunity of a lifetime, must be seized during the lifetime of the opportunity.

NO PLANET B

TALKING ECONOMICS

On a learning curve

It’s no time for regrets…

Ever spotted a speck of dust hanging in a shaft of sunlight and wondered about life, the universe, and everything?

You know, that moment when you imagine the speck of dust might incorporate an entire universe? Your next thought is that our universe might equally be a speck of dust in someone else’s world. Then you get onto “What is beyond space?”

As a child I once envisaged a brick wall delineating the end of space. I even acknowledged that it would have to be a curved wall with no beginning and no end like looking at the inside of a ball.

This image gave rise to a further question so obvious as to render its asking redundant, and so my childish attempts to corral the cosmos came to an end - unlike the universe.

Unless one chooses to delegate such concerns to a higher power, (and I do not seek to denigrate those who do, although I do not) one has to acknowledge that some things are, for the time being, unknowable.

MacDonald Carey famously said: “Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives”.

Richard Fisher - BBC journalist said, less famously: “From the Earth’s perspective, the continents are leaves drifting across a pond.

And human concerns are a raindrop on the leaf’s surface.” He’s talking about plate tectonics.

Up until around 100 years ago people assumed, quite reasonably, that the lands over which humans have been fighting since time began were static.

Couple of problems there; tempting though it might be to pinpoint the Big Bang, that will prove to be an over-simplification of a reality yet to be determined, so I’ll leave the beginning of time for another day.

The Reserve Bank announced its latest monetary policy decision today, after I wrote my column.

The discussion about what the RBNZ should do had an amazing lack of urgency given that New Zealand’s inflation rate last year was 5.9%, the highest rate for about 30 years and the RBNZ has forecast the figure for March 2022 - it will be 6.6%.

Additionally, the price impacts arising from the Ukraine conflict will push inflation rates even higher and the high rates will be around for longer than anyone had anticipated three months ago.

The discussion on the Official Cash Rate (OCR) did at least shift from “will the RBNZ raise it or leave it unchanged” to whether the RBNZ will raise it by 0.25% or 0.5%.

Given the inflation risks that are now in the economy, either of those small increases are inadequate.

Past evidence shows that moving fast and strongly is a better way to break an inflation cycle than numerous incremental increases.

The slowly-slowly approach gives time for second-round price effects to get embedded – and we can already see that happening in New Zealand and elsewhere.

The other sign of a lack of urgency is that the RBNZ has stuck to its pre-announced timetable for OCR announcements. The last OCR decision was on February 23. The RBNZ, faced with overwhelming evidence of an emerging inflation crisis, has waited seven weeks.

I don’t think this timetable is a legal requirement but is a process the RBNZ has adopted to make policy more transparent and predictable. But in a crisis, timetables become irrelevant. Action is what is paramount and the sooner the better.

By Peter Matthews

Static lands we can deal with. In the mid-late 1960s ‘seafloor spreading’ was validated. It is now known that the Atlantic Ocean is widening by around 2.5 centimetres a year. Not enough to worry any of us; only 25 kilometres per million years, but the continents began their tectonic shuffling around 3.4 billion years ago...

The last supercontinent, when all earth’s land was undivided, was Pangaea (and there were four or five such cycles before it) which only began to break up around 200 million years ago. You may be more familiar with ‘Gondwana’ - that was the southern end of Pangaea, which gave rise to the landmasses down under.

Anyway, before I use up my allotted words I had better get to a point, which is this: For the entire history of the human race ‘terra firma’ was an obvious and self-evident truth - until it wasn’t, about 60 years ago.

So I don’t know why people get so hung up about how we ‘don’t know things’.

Going by our progress so far I’d say humans are making a pretty decent job of working out which way is up. Sure, if we don’t know something may not be ONLYtoday, itPLANET known in our lifetime.

But then human concerns are but raindrops on a floating leaf.

By Peter Nicholl

I think the world’s Central Banks are facing an inflation crisis. The RBNZ has so far taken more tightening policy action than most other Central Banks. Given how little the RBNZ has so far done, that is amazing – and depressing. But this hasn’t been a race between hares and tortoises – all of them have been tortoises. The RBNZ has just been a faster one.

New Zealand’s inflation rate averaged around 11% per annum in the 1970s and 1980s. That was the environment in which I became involved in RBNZ monetary policy. It made me very cautious. I think the opposite situation applies today. New Zealand inflation rate has averaged 2.5% over the last 20 years.

That’s the environment today’s policy makers have experienced most of their working lives. I don’t think they recognise how much and how quickly the inflation picture is changing at present and what could lie ahead.

The RBNZ frequently says they take a ‘least regrets’ approach to their policy decisions. Up until now, their ‘least regrets’ approach has led them to be cautious about applying too much pressure to economic activity.

Their ‘least regrets’ analysis now needs to undergo a fundamental change. The big risks are now on the inflation side. I would like to see the RBNZ blare out this message by making a bigger change than 0.5 % to the OCR. I am sure they won’t do that, but I hope they will be bold enough to raise it by 0.5%.

By the time this column is published we will know what they did.

WHAT’S SO ‘GOOD’ ABOUT

GOOD FRIDAY?

Perhaps you’ve never paused to consider a response to this question at any real level… that’s understandable since often Good Friday is mistakenly viewed by so many as little more than a holiday - a time to just chill and maybe eat too many chocolate Easter eggs …

But a deeper answer exists : Good Friday marks the day when Christ was taken and crucified on a cross. His death paid the price for every person’s wrongdoing making it possible to be forgiven, to receive the gift of eternal life.

“For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.”

(John 3:16)

There’s inescapable truth in these words that everyone will have to deal with.

Time marches on and death will inevitably come to all of us sadly many will never choose to receive eternal life. We alone will define our eternal state by the choices each of us make it is determined by whether we have trusted (believed in) God’s Son and received His gift of salvation; or not.

Following His death, came Jesus’ resurrection…this proved His authority and power over death - we can share that victory and know with certainty that we have received eternal life too !

We wish you a safe, happy Easter and hope you’ll take a moment to consider what it is that actually makes ‘Good Friday’ good !

Resthaven project launched A karakia at Cambridge Resthaven marked the start of a multi-milliondollar development project at the rest home’s complex in Vogel St. The multi-stage project will see the oldest part of the complex developed into living apartments for seniors by late 2023.

Resthaven Board and team members at the karakia included Ngāti Koroki Kahukura and Ngāti Hauā mana whenua, Waipā District Mayor Jim Mylchreest and councillor Roger Gordon, Cambridge Community Board chairperson Sue Milner, and representatives of the building team

from Octa Projects Management, ECS, and Livingstone Building.

Rahui Papa, co-chair of Ngāti Koroki Kahukura Trust, led the karakia supported by Ngāti Hauā’s Teaoarama Maaka.

Board chairman Kevin Monks said the project’s timing was special as the organisation will celebrate 50 years of service at the end of this year.

“These supported living apartments will provide residents with the comfort of living as they would in their own home with the added benefit of care and support available to them in their apartment.”

Cambridge Resthaven CEO David Hall said the first building will be named Hanlin Building in honour of the Hanlin sisters who helped establish Cambridge Resthaven in the late 1960s.

“The first stage will have 33 apartments, a recreational area, and will house the kitchen and laundry for the whole complex. These are people’s homes, and we plan to add to the village feel with a range of amenities, like a corner shop,” he said.

Two more buildings will go up after the completion of the Hanlin Building, making a total of 77 apartments once the project ends.

Dolina makes a difference Cambridge-born dancer Dolina Wehipeihana has been honoured with a Te Waka Toi Award “making a difference” (Ngā Tohu Hautūtanga Auaha Toi) for her contributions to the arts.

The former St Peter’s Catholic School student (Ngāti Raukawa, Ngāti Tukorehe) is a dancer, choreographer and theatre producer.

She performed at the opening of the Gallagher Performing Arts Centre at Waikato University in 2001 and was a founding member of Atamira Dance Company.

Wehipeihana, 45, is the general manager of Kia Mau Festival and a member of the National Māori Theatre steering

committee He Waka Ūrungi. She was on the steering committee of the National Māori Dance Summit and is a board member of the Performing Arts Network of New Zealand.

Her choreographic work includes The Beautiful Ones written by Hone Kouka, and the Poi E Thriller-style dance in the 2010 film Boy. Wehipeihana founded an independent production company, Betsy and Mana Productions, and through this company produces theatre and dance.

She and husband Jarod Rawiri, an actor and director known for Boy, Shortland Street and Harry, live in Auckland and have four children.

MORTGAGE MATTERS

Free Up Your Cashflow

By Gavin Lynch – Yes Mortgages

Struggling with high interest rates on short term debts such as hire purchases, credit cards or personal loans??

THEN MAYBE YOU SHOULD CONSIDER DEBT CONSOLIDATION. What is debt consolidation?

It’s the combining of several short term debts incurring high interest rates into one loan at a lower rate of interest.

Who should consider debt consolidation?

If you own your own home you can consolidate your short term debts into one loan by taking out a new mortgage against your house which is sufficient to pay off all the smaller debts.

Remember - the cheapest money you can borrow is generally housing interest rates with your mortgage.

What are the benefits of debt consolidation?  You have only one repayment each month.  You have to meet the repayment criteria of only one lender - your bank.  Your overall interest rate will be lower - compare 4.25% on your mortgage with up to 22% on your credit card debt.  The length of your term can be structured to suit your needs.

Let me give you an example:A short term debt of $30,000 made up of two hire purchases, two credit cards and a personal loan may cost $1,200 per month in repayments.

Consolidate this debt into a home mortgage and the repayments will come down to approx $180 per month over a 30 year term. Pay $580 per month over a five year term and the repayments are reduced by more than half and the $30,000 debt can be paid off in full in five years!

If you would like to talk about consolidating debt, please call me at Yes Mortgages on 823 4531 or 021 783 266.

A win for Wally

Ōhaupō did credit to the memory of late club president Wally Kite and Leamington scored a convincing win on the opening day of Waikato club rugby last weekend. Ōhaupō beat Taupiri 22-21 on a day when the club paused to reflect on the contribution Kite had made to the club.

Leamington, pipped at the post in their efforts to climb into the top-flight last season, opened with a convincing 4119 win over Hinuera.

A superb performance in Brisbane last week by Waipā Para cyclist Devon Briggs has led to his selection with four others to compete at October’s 2022 UCI Para Cycling Track World Championships in France.

At 18, Briggs is the youngest member of the team, and the world championships will be his international debut.

Paralympics New Zealand (PNZ) named the New Zealand Para Cycling team for France last weekend. Three Tokyo 2020 Paralympians are included – Nicole Murray, Anna Taylor and Sarah Ellington – with the rest of the team comprising Nick Blincoe and Devon Briggs.

Murray, Ellington and Briggs competed in the Oceania Track Cycling Championships in Brisbane, where Briggs won four gold medals, Murray won two golds, and Ellington won a silver and a bronze.

Briggs told The News that his win in Brisbane had surpassed his wildest hopes, although he had been training “like a demon”. The C4 classified Para athlete, who was born with severe club feet, won gold in the scratch race, the

Devon Briggs’s outstanding performance in Brisbane netted him four gold medals.

1000m time trial, the 4000m individual pursuit, and the omnium. Also racing were Connor Douglas and Ben Westenburg.

“It went a lot better than I thought it would.

Realistically, I was happy to just go over and enjoy the racing … I was blown away when I pulled out those results. That training really paid off.”

Briggs started a business degree at Waikato University in January and works parttime in Cambridge. He has been cycling since he was 10, toughing it out against years of painful surgeries and finding cycling the only non-impact sport he could

safely enjoy.

While Brisbane ranks as a massive achievement, he isn’t entirely new to success.

Briggs won the Para cycling Emerging Talent award in the 2020 Cycling New Zealand Road and Track Recognition Awards, and it was his performance at December’s Southland Track Championships that earned him a place in Brisbane.

Even before his success in Australia, Briggs had his eye on something even bigger – competing in the 2024 Paralympics in Paris.

“It’s going to be a lot of hard training, a tough road … but I’m ready for it,” he said.

Ensuring it’s not a flat night…

By Mary Anne Gill

Anyone can make a cup of coffee, Tennille Hawkins says, but not everyone can make a great cup of coffee.

The Cambridge Raceway barista has made thousands of cups since her first 15 years ago and tomorrow (Thursday) she will resist any pressure to cut corners at The Race meeting.

Punters, trainers, owners and drivers regularly make a beeline for the old ticket booth where the 34-year-old mixes her coffee making skills with the marketing savvy she learned after leaving high school.

“You’ve got to listen to your customers, engage with them while at the same time using good techniques to make the best

coffee. “It’s all about the customer.”

She is excited about the event which is the first harness racing slot race in Australasia and New Zealand’s richest standardbred race with a stake of $900,000.

During the week she helped The Raceway’s promotion team, handing out brochures and fliers around town to get the punters along.

It has been a while since anyone asked her where she got her name from, she says in response to The News’ query.

Most who work at The Raceway are too young to remember Captain and Tennille with their 1975 chart topper “Love Will Keep Us Together.”

It was a favourite of Tennille’s mother

in store now

Jennifer Patton who with her husband Ian founded Jennian Homes in 1982.

Tennille was born in the old Cambridge maternity home, moved away to Hamilton with her parents and came back to town in 2016 with daughter Kaia, now seven.

Married to Dean Hawkins, who co-owns

Wentwood Grange, the couple have a blended family with Dean’s son Liam, 11, and their 21-month-old son Jack.

Kaia, who goes to Goodwood School, has watched her mother make that many cups of coffee she dreams of being a barista herself one day.

Still Self Assured

Pukekohe-based Self Assured (pictured below) picked up an unfavourable draw on Saturday, but is still regarded as the horse to beat in the country’s richest harness race tomorrow in Cambridge.

The Race by Grins (2200m) at Cambridge Raceway, with a stake of $900,000, is the first harness slot race in Australasia and has drawn four Australian horses in a nine-strong field.

They are the only mare in the race, Stylish Memphis, veteran gelding Alta Orlando, February’s Group One Newcastle Mile winner Mach Dan and Majestic Cruiser.

Trainer Mark Purdon says he will have to produce the performance of his career to win from barrier 8. It will mean pulling back,

maybe all the way to last, before making a mid-race move, hoping the speed merchants Alta Orlando (barrier 2), Spankem (3) and Mach Dan (5) set up a tempo that allows the backmarkers into the contest.

“It really wasn’t the barrier we wanted,” said Purdon. “He is going to have to go back but there does look to be huge speed early so hopefully they go hard.

“I think Brent (Mangos, driver of South Coast Arden) might take it easy early too so we could end up coming into the race later.

Gates open for The Race By Grins evening race meeting at 5pm. There will be eight races from 6.05pm to 9.20pm including the feature event at 8.55pm.

Barista delight: Tennille Hawkins in the old Cambridge Raceway ticket booth she leases for a coffee-making stand.

Waipa grabs Pennants in the bag BMX places

By Benjamin Wilson

Rebecca Petch swapped bikes to add another Oceania jersey to her collection as she dominated the elite women’s racing in BMX competition at the 2022 Oceania championship in Brisbane last weekend.

After winning an Oceania jersey with victory in the team sprint on the track, Petch, 23, returned to her roots to dominate the Leila Walker elite BMX competition, unbeaten in the competition to claim the elite women’s title for the first time.

Leila Walker of Cambridge and Rotorua’s Megan Williams, second and third overall, – were first and second in the junior grade.

“It’s nice to get some racing with the girls.

They were really pushing me,” said Petch. “With the time difference, I haven’t really adapted since I have been here, but I need to be able to adapt.

Petch will race in the Superclass BMX competition on Saturday.

Walker, 17, enjoyed a second and two first placings in her three races.

She will return to Cambridge to prepare for the world championships in France in July.

Fellow Waikato rider, Baylee Luttrell (Hamilton) finished runner-up in the under-23 class behind Australian Desree Barnes, while another Cambridge rider, Bennett Greenough placed third in the under 23 men’s competition.

His younger brother Jack Greenough also finished on the podium as runner-up in the junior men.

Cambridge won the Waikato women’s championship pennants title taking out the final of five rounds at Te Awamutu Golf Club on Sunday.

The celebrations continued after the golf with St Peter’s School student Suwanna McPhee, 15, dominating the Waikato Golf end of year awards - apart from the only category she was ineligible for, the masters’ player of the year.

That went to teammate Jill Morgan.

The Cambridge team of Morgan, McPhee, Sian Stevenson and Moira Keyte beat Walton on the day to cap an all-conquering season.

Ngaruawahia beat Riverside 1 to nab second place 10 points adrift of Cambridge.

Matamata took out division two from Hamilton while Waitomo won division three ahead of Te Awamutu and Riverside.

McPhee won junior and senior golfer of the year, the Russell Grace Salver for the most wins at last year’s interprovincial championships and the Waikato women’s golfer of the year.

She also completed the pennants’ season unbeaten at number two.

McPhee, who lives in

Cambridge, has been a member of the St Peter’s Golf Academy for four years.

Coach Simon Thomas said she had a great work ethic and had come on “in leaps

and bounds” the past season.

Her ambition is to go to college in the United States.

Waikato Golf Club life member Peg Murphy with, from left, Cambridge’s Jill Morgan, Suwanna McPhee, Sian Stevenson, and Moira Keyte.

Chipper’s classic win Brian ‘Chipper’ Allen and his team of Grenville Mead, Bronnie McGowan and Glenys Carter ran out clear winners after the Central Bowling Club’s Classic Two-Day Open tournament on the weekend.

Teams from Hamilton, Pukekohe, Tauranga, Putaruru, Ōhope, and Cambridge entered and chasing the much valued first prize.

The leader board changed several times during the two days but it was the home-team four that emerged the victors.

The wining combination - Bronnie McGowan, Glenys Carter, Brian ‘Chipper’ Allen and Grenville Mead with sponsor Michelle Rolley of Forsyth Barr.

Rev. Mohu Lolohea Trinity St Pauls Union Parish Church Growing up, Easter was all about traditions: getting ready for Easter camp to hang around with my peers and enjoying the good meal provided by our parents and church leaders.

Here in Aotearoa we have Good Friday service and have a hot cross bun. On Easter Sunday a communion service is followed by an Easter egg hunt. Sometimes we forgot the very core essence of why we celebrate Easter.

Easter is a time to shift our considerate from tradition to Jesus, the one the tomb couldn’t hold. The one whom the angel witnessed, “he is not here, he has risen.” Therefore, Stuart Townend and Keith Getty were right in their resurrection hymn, “See, what a morning, gloriously bright with the dawning of hope in Jerusalem, folded the grave clothes, tomb filled with light, as the angels announce Christ is risen! See God’s salvation plan, wrought in love, borne in pain, paid in sacrifice, Fulfilled in Christ, the Man, for He lives: Christ is risen from the dead.”

I wish you a Happy Easter with a grateful heart.
