A soldier’s life By Viv Posselt

At just 10, Wolf Hucke was a stocky, determined little fellow. The German-born lad squared up to a Canadian armoured vehicle as they rolled into his town at the end of World War 2. Wearing his cub-scout uniform and brandishing his father’s .22 rifle, he let a shot fly at the armoured vehicle as it approached. “I thought I was the brave one … that I would save the world,” he laughs now, an octogenarian with The then teenaged Wolf Hucke just a full cache of memories. after he joined the French Foreign “But I was lucky that day.” Legion. He certainly was. The column stopped and a soldier from the lead vehicle sized up his opponent. Figuring the diminutive lad was unlikely to be a German soldier or member of the Hitler youth, he popped the boy over his knee, and gave him “a good hiding” with his belt. “After that he gave me a slab of chocolate,” Wolf grinned. “My mother clapped when I got that hiding. She knew I had wanted to be a soldier from the time I could think.” Eight years later, with training as a miner under his belt, Wolf tried for the French Foreign Legion. Like many young men, he was attracted to the excitement and fine reputation held by the Legionnaires. “Everybody knew about them, but it was not that easy to get in. They are really fussy … they grilled you hard, both physically and mentally.” Wolf passed muster and went through the gruelling training programme. He became a member of the Premier BEP (1st Battalion Parachutists) and saw service in Vietnam (then Indochina), Algeria and the Suez crisis. “Everything they did was at 200 per cent. The Legion was

not as easy place to be a soldier, but it was an honest place. I enjoyed every bit of my time there.” After five years, he moved on, joining a group of highly-trained soldiers who made up a mercenary force operating in the then Congo, seeing action and rescuing civilians. Next, he volunteered his skills in the then Rhodesia, now Zimbabwe. He joined Rhodesia’s C Squadron 22 SAS Regiment, spending 10 years there during the country’s war of independence. He trained as a medic at Bulawayo’s Mpilo Hospital and found himself at the sharp end of action in the African bush. Wolf came to New Zealand in 1979 with his first wife and family and joined the SAS. He spent time the Air Force until 1991, and

with 1 Field Ambulance, NZ Army Medical Corp as a general service hand. There has never been a moment’s regret about choosing the life of a soldier. He comes from a line of military men, and his sons followed suit. Wolf and his second wife, Alison, have lived here for four years. They met when they were both working in Hamilton as trainers for the Red Cross. Later, they opened and ran a café in the city before Alison’s teaching jobs saw them move around the country for several years. “Where I would teach, Wolf would end up as the caretaker,” she smiled. Today, the pair live at Cambridge Resthaven, where Alison is active in the community garden. The pair never miss an Anzac Day and will be there on Monday alongside Alison’s 101-yearold dad, Les Winslade QSM.

Messages from the trenches An exhibition of World War One postcards sent to a local family and highlighting their wartime tragedy is at the centre of an exhibition at Cambridge Museum running until April 30. The silk embroidered postcards were sent by the Armer brothers to their loved ones in Cambridge in 1917. The notes from France have been beautifully preserved by the Tihema family and are on loan to Cambridge Museum during April as part of Anzac commemorations. Their inclusion in the ‘Postcards from the Great War’ exhibition is the first time they have been displayed. The Tihema family is delighted they are on show at the museum. They said the postcards were given to their mother Joan Joyce/Tihema by her mother, Doll, and they mean a great deal as they tell part of the family’s story. The Armer brothers write about their lives as soldiers, rarely mentioning the dangers of life in the trenches, choosing rather to talk about what might be happening at home, referencing jokes about the family dog and gossip about weddings in town. The family’s ancestors John and Alice Armer lived in Leamington’s Goldsmith St for many years. They had four boys and four girls who attended Leamington Primary School. Three of the boys went to war – Keith, Harry and Kenneth. The latter two made it home and lived into the 1960s but Keith was declared missing in action during

a July 1917 battle in France. Cambridge Museum manager Elizabeth Harvey said being able to share these stories was a vital part of the museum’s role. “Our history is so much more engaging when it’s about people and places, not just dates,” she said. “We’re so grateful to the

Tihema family for lending us their family taonga and look forward to telling more family stories within our displays in future.” ‘Postcards from the Great War’ will be on display at the museum until April 30. It can also be viewed online at www. cambridgemuseum.org.nz.

On the beat with Senior Constable DEB THURGOOD Don’t be that person I hope everyone has had a great Easter weekend and was fortunate enough to get some time off to recharge, as I did. This week, I have a reminder for all following a recent situation experienced by our team. Whether you are walking, cycling or driving and come across a police cordon, you must not pass. This police cordon may take the form of police emergency tape closing off a pathway/area, it may be a static police car in a clear position blocking a road or an actual police Officer standing guard. Put simply, the cordon is there for a reason – and it’s always an important one. Public safety is an overriding concern. Primarily however, the cordon will usually be in place to protect the evidential integrity of a crime scene, to contain an offender or to minimise path contamination when a police dog is actively tracking. It becomes more sensitive however when the cordon is in place to preserve the dignity

and privacy of a (sometimes critically) injured person, whilst enabling emergency services to attend to their needs. It is disappointing for attending police in this last scenario, when members of the public actively remove a tape cordon, or argue the point with a police officer as to why their personal need, overrides the cordon. Please don’t be that person. We will not always be able to tell you the exact reason why we can’t let you pass, but nevertheless, trust that it is essential that you don’t and we will lift the cordon as soon as the requirement has ended. When it comes to traffic crashes, cordons and/or traffic control will often be in place. The speed limit when passing a crash scene drops to 20kph. Failing to observe this not only risks you getting a fine, but can cause related crashes (most commonly nose-to-tails) where one car slows and the one behind doesn’t. Frequently we also see ‘rubber necking’

when occupants of cars hinder the flow of traffic while peering voyeuristically at the crash scene. What is worse, is when the cell phones come out and videos or photos are taken and shared on social media. Please consider how you would feel if photos of a serious crash in which your family member or friend was involved, were plastered all over local social media, potentially before you had even been officially informed. Anyone police see using a cell phone while driving will receive a fine of $150 and 20 demerits. One last note on crash prevention is around stop signs. Stop signs are in place at intersections where there is a higher risk of crashing, for example where roads with differing speed limits intersect, or where for other reasons it is deemed a high crash area. Remember, stop means stop.

Briefs… Climb time

Arborists from around the Waikato and Bay of Plenty will compete in a tree climbing event at Lake Karāpiro for three days from tomorrow. Spokesperson Craig Lamb said about 40 arborists would climb plane, oak and redwood trees at the domain to demonstrate their skill sets and find a champion to go on and compete for the national title.

Home of sport?

Cambridge is being touted as a likely home for the multimillion dollar national sports hall of fame and museum. The hall and museum have been located at the Dunedin Railway Station since 1999 but the trust behind it no longer considers it a long-term home. The News understands the site being eyed up is adjacent to the Velodrome and St Peter’s School.

Principal mourned

Former Cambridge Primary School principal Keith Illingsworth has died aged 97. He is survived by his wife Beverly, three children, nine grandchildren and 19 great grandchildren. Keith retired at the end of 1984 and was replaced by Dennis Raines. His funeral will be held in Cambridge on Saturday.

Brigade called

For the second time in a month, emergency services have been called to the Te Awa River Ride for a medical emergency. On Saturday the Cambridge Fire Brigade was called after a ride user suffered a heart attack.

Arrest made

Police have made a swift arrest following a report of an unprovoked attack on a man which left him with facial injuries in a Leamington carpark on Saturday. The arrest was made within 24 hours thanks to help from the business community. Combined staff from Hamilton and Western Waikato Police District were able to identify the alleged attacker, a man who was visiting Cambridge. He has since appeared in court.

Consent sought for quarry By Mary Anne Gill

The company behind a sand quarry on the banks of the Waikato River and close to Mount Maungatautari has applied for a resource consent. The application comes at least five years after significant mining began there. Beacon Hill Contracting Ltd shareholder and Waipā District councillor Elwyn Andree-Wiltens confirmed a resource consent for the Oreipunga Sand Quarry was to be submitted to the council yesterday (Wednesday), 20 days after The News started asking questions about the mining operation. But mining expert Rhys Powell, an opponent to a planned quarry just south of Cambridge, says the Oreipunga sand quarry should not be allowed to restart operations or apply retrospectively for a resource consent. “That quarry is right between Maungatautari mountain and the Waikato River. Both are of significant cultural importance,” he said. The district council and Waikato Regional Council are holding their own investigations into the quarry with Waipā staff initially saying farm quarries are a permitted activity in the rural zone and then suggesting the Covid pandemic was a contributing factor in the quarry not having a consent. That is despite maps on the district council website showing the quarry was active in 2017 – years before Covid arrived in New Zealand.

The quarry is next to the Waikato River.

The district council, alerted to the quarry by The News, suspended all operations at the site after an enforcement officer visited last week and met with the owners and a consultant for the company. Mayor Jim Mylchreest, in response to questions from The News, refused to comment on whether he was considering suspending Cr AndreeWiltens because of her involvement in the quarry or whether sand from the quarry was used in any district projects. The News has been told sand from Oreipunga has been supplied to at least two significant developments which required council approval at the planning stage. Andree-Wiltens, who chairs the Maungatautari Reserve committee, has declared a pecuniary

interest in Beacon Hill Contracting on the council’s interest register. But despite questions from The News, Waipā staff and Mylchreest would not say whether she declared an interest when projects involving Beacon Hill Contracting, were discussed and voted on by councillors. Beacon Hill’s website says it works alongside local and regional councils for project consents and that its work base diversified into civil works, drainage and roading in the last decade. District Growth and Regulatory Services group manager Wayne Allan has confirmed the council was unaware of the commercial operations of the quarry until The News started making enquiries. “Due to being unaware of the commercial nature of this quarry, we had not informed any other parties. We will now work through the notifications,” he said. That would include Tainui tribes - Ngāti Raukawa, Ngāti Wairere, Ngāti Hauā and Ngāti Korokī - Waikato River Authority, which monitors the health and wellbeing of the river, WorkSafe, which is responsible for administering legislation around health and safety at work and the regional council. The News suggested to Waipā District Council this week it did not appear to appreciate how seriously the issue was being viewed in the community. In response, Communication and Engagement manager Hannah Blake said chief executive Garry Dyet and Allan were on leave.

A winner who wants to come home By Mary Anne Gill

Cambridge squash player Joelle King, who won the Manchester Open for the second time in four years this week says she can’t wait to come home. The 30-year-old defeated England’s Sarah-Jane Perry in three straight sets on Monday (NZ time) and moves up to number five in the world. “I’m actually quite emotional,” admitted King, who struggled with a leg injury throughout the tournament and won a tense semi-final the day before in a brutal 86 minute long five setter against Belgium’s Nele Gilis. “What a great week for me battling with an injury before the event I’m so pleased to have found a way to win it and get my first title

in three years,” she told The News. “I am so proud of this one after the last three years. They have been filled with ups and downs. I’m so proud of how I kept working away and trying my absolute best.” King said she was excited to be coming home to see her family and friends for the first time in three years. “I can’t wait to be back in Cambridge.” King first started playing squash at the Leamington club when she was nine. She reached a career-high world ranking of three in 2019 and has two Commonwealth Games gold medals, one silver and a bronze. “It’s been a long time since I won an event, a lot has happened in my life since then. At this point winning a tournament against the

calibre of players we have on tour means so much. It’s nice to have so much support, some of my team aren’t here and my body is in bits so it’s just so nice and emotional.” King is based in Bristol to be close to coach Hadrian Stiff and was last in New Zealand just before the pandemic. “This is what all the sacrifices are for. I wanted to give my squash everything that I have and this one is for my family and friends and to everyone who stood by me. “When you’re doing well there’s so many friends and people but it’s those that are there when things aren’t doing so well that mean so much,” she said.

Slots a super success Ratepayer By Mary Anne Gill

A huge crowd at Cambridge Raceway last week witnessed one of the country’s best harness racing pacers strut its stuff in the inaugural $900,000 slot race. Self Assured, already a champion New Zealand and Auckland Cup winner, strode through the winning post at the hands of another champion, driver Mark Purdon. And the win by the pre-race favourite, despite a wide barrier draw in the 2200m mobile race, met with approval from punters who took advantage of New Zealand’s new orange setting and the non-appearance of Cyclone Fili to bolster crowd numbers. All 500 hospitality seats and 700 general admission tickets sold before the gates opened and another 1300 walked through the gates on a clear full-moon lit night to become arguably the best crowd seen at the raceway for years. Domestic turnover at the TAB was just over $1 million. There was plenty else for locals to celebrate, given the six-year-old Self Assured gelding hails from Pukekohe via Rolleston and four

Australian horses were also runners. Cambridge drivers Benjamin Butcher drove two winners, his father David and Nicky Chilcott one each and the 79-yearold Tamahere anaesthetist Luk Chin was delighted when he guided Jasinova to victory. It was the fourth training win of the month for

Chin’s stable of four horses – Safrakova, Voronov, Alana and Jasinova. Chief executive David Branch said the club hoped to increase the stake next year from $900,000 to $1 million and boost crowd numbers to 5000 people. He was also considering adding a trotting slot race to next year’s Friday April 14

date. The race, already the richest harness race in New Zealand, saw slots in the invite-only race bought for $75,000 each for a guaranteed stake divided up with $400,000 to the winner, $125,000 for second, $85,000 third, $65,000 for fourth and the remaining five starters each getting $37,500.

owes $21k By Mary Anne Gill

Attempts to collect more than $21,600 in unpaid rates on three Te Awamutu properties could land the mortgage-free Waipā landowner in court. Finance manager Jolanda Hechter told the Finance and Corporate committee this week staff had tried everything to get the ratepayer to pay. “This is our very last resort to recover the funds,” she told the committee. “It is council’s staff hope that working our way through the process will provide indication to the ratepayer that council is serious about collection, and that this will result in payment.” Chair Andrew Brown said collecting the outstanding rates would make a “big hole” in the council’s outstanding rates bill from previous years of $95,000. Making the situation even tougher for the council to collect the money is the properties are all mortgage free which means there is no lender to recover the outstanding rates from. There are three key legislative tools available to the council to recover the $21,661.38. They are to impose penalties, recover from a first mortgage or through the courts. Court is the only option for the council if debt collecting fails over the next three months. The council can apply to a Registrar of the High Court to have a judgement enforced by the sale of the rating unit. There have been no rates paid on the first property since July 15, 2019, when ownership changed hands, and as of December 31, $8153 was outstanding and a further $1359 in water payments owing. The most recent payment on the second property was on March 12, 2020. There the totals owed are $7376 and $1075. The owner has owned property three since April 2005 and last paid rates on May 3, 2019. On that the outstanding sums are $6131 in rates and $291 in water payments.

GARDNER & SONS

Where is the best place to set up a general store in Cambridge? In 1888, Fred and Amelia Popple decided on the corner of Queen and Victoria Streets – the present site of the Z petrol station. The Popples would have appreciated the passing traﬃc from Cambridge East residents on their way to and from town and also its close proximity to delivery routes via Hamilton Road. Manson Edward Gardner was new to Cambridge when he purchased the property from the Popples in 1904. The property had a general store, which Mr Gardner kept, and several cottages, which he demolished to subdivide the land. Gardner & Sons supplied groceries, ironmongery, drapery and general merchandise. The business did so well that within a year, it enlarged its premises. A two-storey addition was made to the main building – as can be seen in this faded photograph.

The concreted ground ﬂoor was used for the storage of bulk goods, farm produce, chaﬀ and grain. Under the stairway leading to the upstairs room was a cooling chamber which kept butter,

eggs, bacon and cheese. The upstairs room was ﬁtted with shelves and used as a showroom for their large stock of crockery and glassware. To safely transport fragile packages in and out of

ABSOLUTE PERFECTION Jocelyn Cooney would drive past the Walker family’s house in Queen Street and worry that it might in the future, be knocked down and commercial buildings developed in its place. After a chat to husband David and ﬁnding that they were both on the same page, she decided to leave a note in the letterbox of 68 Queen Street advising the present owners of 47 years Howard and Shirley Walker, that should they ever want to sell, they were interested. Five years later Ross Walker phoned them and said that they were leaving. The eventual result? A purchase! Next result, the outstanding house now occupied by tenants headed by Cambridge Finance, Gary Lorigan, and Tony Gee of CBIZ Accountants Ltd. The Walker House, as the Cooneys named

Photos supplied by Bruce Hancock the property, won the Waipa Award for Excellence in 2013 for “the adaptive reuse and/or redesign of a heritage building in order to protect its history.” Built in 1907 the house is an example of an early 20th century Victorian Bay Villa. It was, as David and Jocelyn pointed out, in its original state when they took possession. Repiling was the ﬁrst exercise. The house was jacked up for that and Rob May Builders project managed the process.

The Cooneys had a vision and when they speak now of that vision, their passion and delight at what is now in place is very evident. Lee Turner, architectural draftspeople, gave assistance in keeping the building authentic and safe, and everything was left intact. The toilet was oﬀ the back verandah and that was brought inside; the meat safe, which was a feature many people will remember, has been retained.

the room, a lift was constructed which opened into the yard. In February 1907, the family built a 10 room residence – Rahui – on Queen Street. Rahui has several meanings, the most appropriate being “sanctuary”. Rahui still stands as a well preserved example of the Bay Villa period. It is now oﬃces for accountants Tony Gee and Gary Lorigan. Manson Gardner was born in Canada in around 1837 and arrived in New Zealand in the 1860s. He initially settled at Charleston on the West Coast of the South Island and became a storekeeper during the gold rush. He was described as someone with plenty of leisure time who loved to discuss national and local topics and was a regular frequenter of the Cambridge Library reading room. He died in 1912, aged 75, and was survived by his wife Margaret, ﬁve daughters and two sons. Margaret died in 1936 at age 80 and is buried near her husband at Hautapu Cemetery. By Karen Payne

There were two fireplaces: one in the lounge and one in the kitchen. But as they pointed out, they didn’t give much cold relief as it was colder in the house than it was outside! The fireplaces, which are a work of art, were carefully maintained and the original skirting boards totally maintained and carefully restored. They researched their house recovery very well and rough sawn weather boards were brought from Christchurch, a totally new roof built, new ceilings in the hallways and fully new insulation – all maintained to match the 1900 era. And all the scrim on the walls, which were a feature in the time, had to be taken off. To finish it all off, the outside area was landscaped, also to suit the period, and room for car parking chiselled in the rear. All I can say is, well done David and Jocelyn, the property is exemplary.

Briefs… A petition calling for the owners of a horse called Jessie which has been put down by the SPCA to be prosecuted had attracted nearly 2500 signatures as The News went to press. The horse, distressed and emancipated, had been in a paddock next to the Leamington Sports Club. Residents say they regularly alerted the SPCA to the horse’s plight and produced pictures as evidence. The SPCA, in a response to The News, disputes there were multiple calls and says the complaint received on April 11 was only the second in 16 months. See letters, page 9.

Housing approved

Bridge Housing, a trust supported by the Brian Perry Charitable Trust and Perry Group, has received resource consent to build a 42-home community at Peake Mews, Cambridge. The first homes should be available for purchase by mid-year and construction will be completed by early 2023. The trust says it is committed to providing secure and longterm access to healthy homes at an affordable rate for kiwi families.

Tough for Go Waipā By Mary Anne Gill

A 20 per cent reduction in visitor numbers to Go Waipā community facilities in Cambridge and Te Awamutu has resulted in the charitable organisation having to get financial support from the Government. In a report to Waipā District Council, Go Waipā Community Facilities Trust, which is contracted to run swimming pools in both towns and a sporting stadium in Te Awamutu, says the Te Awamutu Stadium has been hit hardest by the Covid pandemic. More than 100 bookings were cancelled and visitor numbers at the stadium are down to 1265 from July to December last year compared to 21,758 in the same period in 2019. Fewer gym memberships and learn to swim lessons contributed to the 54 per cent decline in numbers, chief executive Matt Horne told the council’s Service Delivery committee on Tuesday. Financial tracking is well down on budget, but $687,669 in support has come from a variety of sources including a government wage subsidy of $538,496. Customer feedback was mixed and challenging for staff, he said. “At times it did become personal and aggressive and staff did very well to remain professional.” Go Waipā’s focus from now on would be on trying to get services and attendance back to projected levels while also looking to expand current services. Fees and charges for 2022-2023 will remain unchanged. “It is a fine line to ask for more fees with stretched household incomes and the increased operational costs.”

Why names are important By Tom Roa, Tikanga Advisor, Waikato University

Kotahi te kōwhao o te ngira e kuhuna atu ai te miro pango, te miro ma, me te miro whero.” There is but one eye of the needle through which must pass the black thread, the white thread, and the red thread. It is generally understood that when Potatau Te Wherowhero uttered these words upon his consecration as Māori King, the ‘miro’ or threads he was referring to were the black, i.e. his Māori people in general; the white, i.e. the Pākehā or Europeans, and the red i.e. the nobility of both races, coming together through the one eye of the needle, combining as one. “Tērā anō ōku nei hoa kei ngā tōpito e whā o te ao. Ko ngā hūmeka, ko ngā kāmura, ngā parakimete, me ngā pēkarohi” My friends are at all four corners of the globe; they are the shoe-makers; the carpenters; the blacksmiths, and the bakers of bread. Following the Raupatu of Waikato, having been expelled from his Waikato tribal lands, and having taken refuge amongst his Ngāti Maniapoto kinsmen, King Potatau’s successor, King Tāwhiao expressed these words at Whatiwhatihoe near the village of Alexandra, later to be renamed Pirongia. These expressions of hope in Māori and Pākehā unity are often missed in today’s narratives about colonial times. Recently I was privy to a conversation in which a friend who was learning Māori noted that she once was so proud that her great-great-great-grandmother was the first European woman to settle in Dunedin. The pride she felt was somewhat dented in her having learned of the horrors experienced by Māori in the land wars and how the effects of the aftermath of those events were still being felt today, I suggested to her that to be sure, the evils

of those times are now being brought more to the attention of everyday New Zealanders. However, we should not lose sight of the fact that many settlers did not come to prise land and livelihoods from those who were here earlier than they. They came with every intention of eking an honest living out of a land they saw full of opportunity. And leaders like Pōtatau and Tawhiao welcomed them and their ilk. The leadership of that time saw opportunities and advantages in working with these newcomer settlers, some of whom married into the tribe(s), and were granted tracts of land to develop. Opportunities were also seen in the new technologies. Steel implements, ploughs and water mills were quickly adopted along with these new settlers who willingly shared their expertise. Amongst them were missionaries who not only preached their Christian messages but also shared their knowledge of the new technologies, particularly the written word. Recently the Te Awamutu News published a story of a property on Rangiaowhia Road which was purchased by The Anglican Church, with the Church stating they intend to return that land to Ngāti Apakura and Ngāti Hinetu who were dispossessed of all of their lands at Rangiaowhia following the ‘pāhuatanga o Rangiaowhia’, and the ‘Raupatu o Waikato’ by the Crown’s colonial forces. Tāwhiao’s friendship with honest tradespeople from around the world, and Te Wherowhero’s vision of the threads coming together to affect a bright future for all, resound in this very loving, very Christian gesture by the Church. Paimārire – Peace with Goodness.

A helping hand from Te Miro

Ukraine supporters – students and staff at Te Miro.

Inspired by the generosity of Tauranga construction boss Sid Carter, Te MiroSchool children have done their bit to help the victims of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. A group, comprising year six to eight students, shared their concerns about the Ukraine situation with principal Michaela Phillips and a plan was draw up. “We talked about the different ways that we might be able to help,” she said. “When we found out what Sid Carter was doing, we decided we wanted to help out with this Ukraine refugee initiative. He was our inspiration for what we ended up doing.” Carter had no ties with the Ukraine until earlier this year, when he became friends with a Ukrainian

economist he met on holiday. He helped her escape with her father to Bulgaria and then with help of friends he assisted a further seven Ukrainian families to safety. We hoped to raise $450 for a family so they would be able to escape the towns they lived in to get to a safer place,” Phillips said. “We had many ideas of how to do this but ended up having a dress-up day at school where people came dressed in blue and yellow to support Ukraine. Our generous community smashed our goal of $450 and we ended up raising $1032. “It rained all day but we had a big shared morning tea, did sunflower art and organised games.” She paid tribute to her students.

On April 14 I was with a group people in Leamington at the horse paddocks where a very distressed and emancipated horse was with two other horses. Two SPCA people who were stationed in Tauranga were checking this horse out regarding its distressed state One of the locals also in attendance remarked that they had been trying to get something done about this horse by SPCA for 14 months but no one had attended or followed up the calls. The two SPCA people did not seem to know what to do and stood around in the paddock for an hour either on their phone or talking and did not seem very interested in our concerns, apparently they called another inspector from Auckland to come down as they could not make a decision as to what to do. Then a vet was called in and another hour was spent talking to the three SPCA people A local person had offered to rehome the horse in question but her offer was not taken up. At this stage I left as I was disgusted at the time it was taking them to make up their minds on what was a simple matter of animal cruelty. I had made up my mind within two seconds as to what should be done At some later time in the day the horse was taken to Matamata and later had to be euthanised I also have complained to the council and the SPCA regarding the treatment of another group of three horses nearby and my

concerns for their welfare started about four years ago but nothing ever eventuated of my concern for these horses either. (Abridged) Eric Dittmer Cambridge SPCA Inspectorate Team Leader Jason Blair responds: SPCA is currently investigating a matter involving a horse in Cambridge, and is unable to discuss details of this investigation publicly. However, we can confirm the horse has now been euthanised. We understand that images that have been shared on social media are not only confronting, but alarming. We too were shocked to see these images and as soon as SPCA was made aware of this horse and its concerning condition via a call from a member of the public on Tuesday afternoon, we responded immediately. Claims that SPCA received multiple calls about this horse in recent months are untrue, and it’s disappointing to see this misinformation being spread on social media. Prior to April 12, 2022, the last call SPCA received about this particular horse was in January 2021, which was investigated appropriately at the time. We have thoroughly searched our records and have found no evidence of any other complaint about this horse. Had we been made aware of concerns about its condition, we would have responded promptly and appropriately.

“They are empathetic and collaborate well with each other. They have organised and orchestrated the whole thing and are now communicating with the two families they were able to help. “We have pictures of them and their children and we can communicate with them through WhatsApp,” student Ari Suter said. “We just hope they all make it out safely”. Elliott Axcell said the community deserved a “massive thank you” for being so generous with donations and for caring. “The collaboration at Te Miro primary was amazing and we raised a lot of money considering we are just a small school with 58 students”.

NO PLANET B

AGE OF REASON

Will the band play on?

Looks can be important

There is a significant birthday approaching, and with it an expectation of celebration. Yes, the party planners’ fingers are twitching over their keyboards and there is talk of this venue and that, numbers of guests, all the usual. Sons apart, I tend to be a little more pragmatic than the average Matthews family member and so I find myself feeling increasingly unsure, or should that be decreasingly sure, how I feel about the plans being made. The first difficulty is number of guests. It would seem to be a prerequisite of being invited to a party that one knows the subject of the affair, and I just don’t know that many people. Added to that I’m not at all sure how many of them would turn out on a winter’s night to toast my slide into antiquity. It might be a bit embarrassing to hire a venue only to find that a phone box would have sufficed. Then there’s the other thing: Should the band get back together? It may surprise you to know that I used to be cool; I spent many years avoiding normal employment by playing in various combinations of bands, and musical ensembles during the 80s, 90’s, and 00’s - what do you call that decade? I haven’t played a live gig for many years now and I have long held the view that old musicians and singers should give up before it gets awkward. “No, you really hit that note, it was fine”, and “Since you’ve had your knee done your moves are great”. I guess my historically favoured genre would allow me to stand quietly on a stage and bemoan my lack of any sort of

I am drawing to the end of a very pleasant two week sojourn away from Cambridge, in the main catching up with family members in Taupō, Kapiti and Wellington. I’m very much enjoying the tail end of a magnificent summer which has morphed into a most pleasant autumn. Part of the trip included two nights Air BnB stay in a converted shipping container with a superb view of Wellington’s breath-taking harbour. Do not be put off by the container. With the title of The Architects Retreat you can imagine that it was very well fitted out in an innovative way. I can appreciate the excitement of the owners of tiny homes. Several days were spent at the property of one of our families in the valley leading up to Otaki Forks. The lady of the house started designing job lists prior to my arrival to ensure that I did not spend the majority of my time in a sedentary position. A sort of ‘work for your supper’ scheme if you get my drift. This included a large number of hours astride a very modern lawn mower towing a tank-laden trailer - from which issued forth either weedrestraining chemicals or, later, a mix of urea and seaweed to encourage the growth of grass. Grass is in short supply (stunted would be more appropriate) due to the devouring mouths of seven equestrian specimens. Even the three rapidly growing beef cattle have had to be shipped next door to a neighbour’s property. But dredging up and down numerous large paddocks, with an eye on a lane-guiding tree to ensure full coverage of the task, leads the mind to wander onto matters of great state. In a week where our national airline, renowned for high standard flight services and dependable aircraft, is gearing itself up

love-life, time spent in jail, general depression, and misfortune. Yes Ladies and Gentlemen I refer to the Blues - or R&B as it used to be known - I was already too old when I realised that the phrase Rhythm & Blues had been appropriated by people who had no idea what it meant. Yes, I could grow a beard for the occasion, take the stage in a cardigan and belt out a few bars, but nowadays I often find I prefer to watch and listen to others. I play my guitar at home, and I’m not nearly as proficient as I used to be. I no longer play 30 notes where three will do and I’m in good company there: BB King was never held back by lack of speed. Then I’ll find myself practising a phrase, over and over again - and I think “What’s the point? I’m trying to learn to play something I’ve only recently forgotten and will probably never play in public again”. The point, of course, is that I enjoy it. I like to play around for half an hour a day; remembering, composing, imagining an appreciative audience. I guess the party might be fun too. Well we didn’t save the planet this week, but itONLY was fun - and that’s the point PLANET of everything.

financially for the big bonanza of enlightened national travel what does our leading politician have to put up with? As she departs for a long (Covid) delayed trade mission to boost our exports one can imagine the NZ Air Force with their fingers crossed behind their backs. This as the almost ancient twin engine jets carries her to her first official stop being Singapore. The machine is renowned for breaking down, sending home for spare parts and can only make it initially to Australia before the tanker driver has to swing alongside with a bucketful of jet fuel to ensure the arial journey can continue. Given that a previous government of a similar hue wound down the Air Force (the Hercules almost carry their own Gold Card) would it not be in the country’s best interest to outfit our leader with the means to arrive fresh, ready for action, feeling proud to emerge from a flying leviathan bearing the Kiwi emblem? If we are to portray ourselves as world leaders in innovative production and food purveyors to the world it is not a good look if our (possibly weary) lead negotiator crawls down the steps at Singapore, swipes a hand across her equatorial heated brow muttering - ‘phew - made it’. While this light tilt at the political scene may appear to have a somewhat jestful tone the word Presence comes to mind. First impressions when meeting senior leaders are everything. Mana is paramount. Swinging into the finely festooned front door of the Prime Minsters of Singapore or Japan is not a good look if one has appeared to have ridden there on a clanky bicycle - of the non-electric kind.

RAILWAY SLEEPERS BACK IN STOCK

If you know anything about the game of chess, you will know that it all comes down to when either player’s King can no longer move. Once the King is trapped, the winning player declares “checkmate” and it’s game over. A painting by a famous artist once hung in the Louvre Museum in Paris. The painting is popularly known as “Checkmate.” It is now in private hands, having been sold at a Christie’s auction in 1999. This painting depicts two chess players either side of a chessboard. One is the devil…who appears arrogantly confident. The other player is a man who looks desperate and forlorn. For the devil to win, he wins the man’s soul. There is an account of a group of champion chess players being taken on a guided tour through the Louvre one day led by the curator - among the group was the world champion - a chess grand master. They happened to come across this intriguing painting in the midst of many other famous artworks such as the Mona Lisa.

The group moved on but the grand master remained staring intently at the chess board in the painting for a long time. Soon the curator leading the group noticed the chess champion had been left behind. Returning to the spot, the curator found the chess champion still studying the ‘Checkmate’ painting. “Are you coming?” he asked. The chess champion replied, “I’m looking at this picture and there is something wrong… the man has not lost…I see a problem here which means either altering the painting or renaming it…” ”Why?” The curator of the museum asked. The chess champion was claiming that the typical interpretation of the painting of the devil having the man in “checkmate” meaning he had lost his soul, was incorrect. “The man has not lost...” he continued. “As I observe the board, his King has one more move!” It wasn’t over for the man in the painting, battling for his soul. He thought he was lost, cornered and hopeless. But the King had one more move. It was

far from over… hope had not evaporated and the man was not defeated. This Easter past, we reflected on the ultimate King of every king, being crucified on a Cross. It seemed like the end once Jesus’ lifeless body was laid in a tomb with a heavy stone rolled across the entrance, guarded by Roman soldiers - it appeared the powers of darkness had prevailed after all and triumphed, seemingly disproving Jesus’ claim that he would rise from the dead. But the King had one more move. It was definitely not over. The resurrection on the third day demonstrated forever the transcendent power and authority of King Jesus! Perhaps you are caught in situations causing despair, as hopeless circumstances engulf you. Yet there is hope. When it appears darkness is triumphing over you, there is a King who always has one more move. He always out-manoeuvres the plans of evil and help is a heart-cry away.

A bonnie wee photo competition By Steph Bell-Jenkins

Cambridge Camera Club member Eric Hill was second overall in the Three Ways International Competition with his image “To Feed Both of Us”, taken in Tibet.

For 10 years, Cambridge Camera Club members have been inspired to reach new heights of photographic excellence by like-minded shutterbugs living 18,000km away. Former Cambridge police detective and camera club member Scott McDougall, who died in 2016, started the Three Ways International competition in 2012. At the end of every year Cambridge Camera Club pits its skills against two groups in Scotland – the Islesburgh Photographic Club, near the Shetland Islands, and Mearns Camera Club, near Aberdeen. Each club submits 15 images, judged independently. “You can submit any kind of image you like, so the scope is huge,” said CCC committee member Lou Kibby. Lou grew up in Scotland and enjoys seeing photographs from her birthplace, despite occasional pangs of homesickness. “It’s quite nice to see what the Scottish clubs put in

compared to our ones and we all enjoy the Scottish connection,” she said. “But we have to be quite strategic in choosing our images so their country of origin isn’t obvious. “I remember one year we got caned on one photo that had done really well here in New Zealand and it had the green, green grass in springtime and they said the saturation was put way too high on the image – but it hadn’t been touched; it was just New Zealand’s green.” Cambridge won by one point this year, taking out the competition for the sixth time in 10 years, with two CCC members taking top three placings overall. Eric Hill was second with his image, “To Feed Both of Us”, showing a woman with her child begging for money in Lasa, Tibet. Jennifer Burton was third with her photograph “Pointing Towards the Heavens”, which uses “astrophotography” to capture an historic wooden church at Rangiaowhia, near Te Awamutu, under the Milky Way.

Competition winners and a new event

The easing of Covid restrictions has seen Cambridge Autumn Festival organisers salvage some autumnal art vibe and come up with an entirely new event. Most festival events were cancelled under Covid’s red traffic light, but able to proceed were the annual Short Story Competition, and the Photo Competition.

An awards evening last week named the winners of both. At the same time, Autumn Festival organisers decided to add a new popup event – a photographic display featuring 26 images, which can be viewed free at the Cambridge i-Site until May 1. The display is a spinoff from the festival’s Photo Competition, themed

‘Memorable Waipā Architecture’. Entries came from Cambridge, Te Awamutu, Karapiro and Ōhaupō. First prize in that went to Cambridge’s Brian Holden for a black and white image of the Leamington Band Rotunda. The photograph was described by architect Antanas Procuta – whose company Procuta Associates

DOCTOR LAWN covers all aspects of lawn care from initial laying of instant turf and sowing new lawns, irrigation installation & maintenance, through to rejuvenating sick, stressed and run down lawns into green, weed free lawns you can be proud of.

The Doc 0800 362 529 www.doctorlawn.co.nz

Urban & Architecture (PAUA) is a new sponsor to the competition – as “absolutely stunning … crisply capturing the intricate Victorian detail.” Antanas joined the judging panel for the first time, as did photographer and gallery owner Jenny Scown. Brian said that after taking many photos over several weeks, the historical rotunda ticked all the boxes. He took several shots, electing to edit out the bollards and a green rubbish bin. “The final touch from colour to black and white instantly turned the clock back 100 years.” An enthusiastic photographer all his life, Brian is keen on taking panoramic images using a drone. He intends using his winnings to support local photography. Highly commended was Ōhaupō’s Les Slone for his pastel-hued image of the Cambridge Town Hall. The Autumn Festival’s Short Story Competition, sponsored by Cooney Insurance in association with Maurice Trapp Group, attracted 243 entries from around New Zealand.

Pictured in front of the winning images are, from left, first prize winner Brian Holden, sponsor Antanas Procuta from Paua, and highlycommended winner Les Slone.

Contestants were tasked with writing 1500-word stories themed ‘Carpe Diem (Seize the day)’. The winner was Auckland business analyst Joseph Williams, who finished his story, ‘January Sun’ the day before his daughter was born. Second place getter was Waitara’s Joyce Lobban with her story ‘Independence Day’. Neither was able to attend the awards evening. Cambridge’s Jamie Russell placed third with his story ‘Decisions of Fate’. A newcomer to creative writing, Jamie said during the awards: “Anyone who even got 1500 coherent words

on the page did a great job.” Judges said the standard and range of entries was high. They also awarded two highly commended writers this year – Kay Meyer from Lower Hutt and Beverley Wood from Hamilton. Festival chairperson Alana MacKay said the competition continues to grow. “We started with 52 entries 11 years ago … and now include online entries. Our sponsors make it possible for the competition to remain free to enter with great prizes to be won.” The stories can be read online at www. cambridgeautumnfestival. co.nz

Anzac commemorations on track

Anzac Day this year is being linked to several activities in Cambridge and a return of the normal commemorative services after a two-year hiatus due to Covid-19. Cambridge RSA president Colonel (Ret) Tony Hill said while the pandemic had limited the way Anzac Day has been marked over the past two years, the RSA has still managed to acknowledge its veterans and those lost to war “with appreciation and respect”. Monday’s Anzac Day services will commence with the muster at 5.45am at the Cambridge Town Hall for the Dawn Parade, set to start at 6am at the cenotaph. That will be followed by the 9am Civic Service of Remembrance in the hall itself. Groups attending that will march to the hall from Alpha St starting at 8.45am.

Final replay kicks off premier season

By Peter Nicholl

Hautapu opens its Waikato’s Premier Division rugby campaign on Saturday hosting Fraser Tech at Cambridge’s Memorial Park at 2.45 pm. Hautapu has been the most successful team in the competition in the last five years making the semi-finals in all five years, the final in each of the last four years and winning the title in 2020 and 2019. The side was beaten by Fraser Tech in last year’s final. Hautapu’s Coach Sean Hohneck says he is “more than happy” with the tough start to

the season. “It is a good way to see where we are at. They are the champs, so the pressure is on them to perform. For us its just a great opportunity to test ourselves,” he said. Hautapu run a large squad of around 30 players for their Premier team. In part, this is to cover the large number of Hautapu players involved in Super Rugby. Hautapu has eight - Ollie Norris, Hamilton Burr, Laghlan McWhannel, Simon Parker, Mitch Jacobsen, Luke Jacobsen, Tom Florence and Alex Nakivell in the Chiefs squad and another three players, Ayden Johnstone, Sam Caird and Mosese Dawai, in the Highlanders

squad. This is a record number of Super Rugby squad members for the Hautapu club and possibly for any Waikato club. With the Super rugby season running until early June, the club will be without many of these players until near the end of the competition. That will test the size and depth of their squad. Sean Hohneck said the club is used to having players coming and going between Super rugby and provincial rugby. It provides an opportunity for others and Hautapu has added some promising players to their squad for the 2022 season and some

younger players from last year are starting to push for places in the starting team. The new players in their squad this year are Jonty Short, Andrew Smith, Caleb Saxon, Tuhoe Kake, Stanley Paese and Senata Lauaki in the forwards and Quentin Hill in the backs. Coach Hohneck is confident Hautapu will continue its recent record of making the semifinals. He doesn’t like to make predictions about what other teams will join them there but he did say the usual Hamilton clubs will probably be in the frame too and he had heard that Te Awamutu Sports also had good numbers and depth this year.

Schools in festive spirit Cambridge’s two secondary schools started the hockey season last week with the inaugural “Festival of Hockey” at St Peter’s School hockey turf. The new initiative gives Cambridge High School and St Peter’s School under 15 and first XI teams a pre-season game before winter hockey competitions start. A newly-donated shield was won for the first time by Cambridge High with both the boys and girls under 15 squads taking out a win. The boys’ 1st XI teams had another tight game as has been the

norm over the past few seasons and it ended 0-0. St Peter’s proved too strong for Cambridge HS in the girls’ 1st XI match winning 6-1. The Festival of Hockey is regarded as a wonderful way to celebrate a growing sport in both schools. Cambridge High is fielding a record seven teams this year, and last year had the most Waikato representative players in its history. The high school has also launched its own club to support the growing interest in the sport at school.

WINTER 2022 WARMTH

20 | CAMBRIDGE NEWS

THURSDAY APRIL 21, 2022

That touch of autumn chill and the sound of leaves crunching underfoot are like a clarion call to prepare for winter.

Pellet fires are growing in popularity

Before long, we’ll be wrapping ourselves in our winter woollies and trying to find ways to do the same with our living spaces. When looking for homeheating solutions, most of us want something efficient, cosy and welcoming. Fireplaces crackling with warmth may have a timeless appeal, but fuelling and cleaning them can be laborious and costly. Why not look at other options … ones that offer the same romance as an open fire, but with none of the drawbacks?

ENJOY A WARM WAGENER HOME

Pellet fires are growing in popularity in the Waikato with people who want a clean and efficient form of homeheating. The sight of a burning flame without the problems of chopping, stacking and carting wood around is a winner.

 They have versatile flue options.

Pellet fires have many advantages such as:

 Models include freestanding, insert and also a Pellet fire boiler.

 They’re easier to use than a conventional woodburner.

 Less than one percent of the fuel burnt is left as ash, which means the ashpan needs to be emptied only a few times a year.

 They light electrically – simple push of the button.

WAGENER Sparky

The cute wee fire with a big heart

He’s built of solid 5mm steel, has a stovetop cooking surface and optional top rails and wetback. Now available in colour options.

Charitable work with bite... By Viv Posselt

Steph Dunsmore and Deb Espin-Scott have collected piles of dental hygiene products for families in need. Just before Easter, the Waipā real estate agents delivered hundreds of oral hygiene items to Busy Bees charity op-shop from where the outlet’s founders Betty Busst and Brenda Rameka will distribute them to those in need. Steph and Deb launched their ‘Replacement Programme’ initiative late last year, collecting donations at their Sheridan Real Estate offices during the first three months of 2022. By the time Easter arrived, they had 203 toothbrushes, 238 toothpastes, 11 mouthwashes, 11 dental flosses, and three floss picks. “We had been trying to get something going last year, but Covid stalled it,” said Steph. It was through her long association with Cambridge Lions Club that she knew Betty Busst and her work with charity, so the decision was made that when they were ready they would bring Busy Bees on board to help. They launched late last year, spreading the word through their colleagues and clients, adding ‘Replacement Programme’ information to their business flyers. It wasn’t long before the products started pouring in.

Their stated rationale was to help families at a time when repercussions around Covid and increasing living costs were starting to bite. “We realised that when people are struggling to put food on the table, dental hygiene products are at the bottom of the priority list,” said Steph. “We wanted to do something to help,” “The flyers generated a lot of support,” Deb added. “People either dropped items into our office or Steph and I collected them. We are incredibly grateful to the Cambridge community for generously supporting us.” Contributions came in from Waipā dentists and other outlets, and a package even came in from a local childcare centre. Steph and Deb said they will continue collecting the items and would like to see the ‘Replacement Programme’ extend beyond Cambridge. Together with Busy Bees, they are also pondering the next phase in the initiative, collecting products such as shampoos and conditioners, and feminine hygiene products. “We’re keeping the dental hygiene one going for a while still,” said Deb, “so people can still drop items off if they want to.” Busy Bees marked its first year as a charity outlet in February, and has raised well over $4500 for families in need. It started as a popup on-selling donated goods to raise funds for various charities.

Betty and Brenda said the donations from Steph and Deb would be distributed to families in need through Cambridge Community House and Kids in Need Waikato. They also said they needed more

volunteers at the moment – even for just a couple of hours a week. They meet at Trinity St Paul’s Union Parish church hall in Queen St from 10am to 2pm on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. Anyone keen to help should drop in for a chat.

time in 40 years. Getting rid of the turf, which in recent years has been affected by the Melting Out disease, was top of the club’s list because of its impact on the club’s programme. The fungal disease attacks the grass and results in yellowish, thin and shabby patches of dead grass, the bane of a batter’s life. Games the past few seasons have been moved away from Cambridge because of the disease, said Dodds. The club secured $65,000 from the appropriately named Grassroots to fix the block. “The old wicket didn’t wear very well,” he said. Part of the problem was caused by the three or four different types of clay sourced locally over the years which were not the type best suited for cricket wickets. So solid was the concrete-like clay mix, the diggers took twice as long as to get through it. “This is the first time I’ve done something like this,” said Dodds who enlisted help from all quarters including the legendary Karl ‘KJ’ Johnson who is turf manager for Seddon Park and Waikato Stadium in Hamilton.

Lots of others wanted to give Dodds advice too but, in the end, the PGG Wrightson Cambridge-based technical field representative decided to back himself. The block will have a compact base of metal followed by a topping of chocolate brown Patumahoe clay, the same used at the Basin Reserve, and planted with a cricketspecific rye grass. Dodds had hoped to have the work done last week but the threat of heavy rain from Cyclone Fili delayed the project. “We won’t know how it’s going to play until the summer,” he said, which makes for a long, cold winter. Come spring, he will be able to toss any extra rye grass seeds on any patches and keep a close eye on it as the grass grows. The block will have one more wicket taking it up to five which they can alternate with throughout the season. If the wickets are as good as what Dodds hope they will be, then the club will be able to lobby the Waikato Valley Cricket Association to bring more top-class cricket to the venue. Representative two-dayers are on Dodds’ wish list. But before that, he will have to watch grass grow very slowly.

Changing of the guard

By Louise Hanlon

Owl Farm manager Tom Buckley is moving to new pastures after six and a half years in the role. Sandwiched between the St Peter’s School Cambridge campus and the Waikato River, Owl Farm is a joint venture between the school and Lincoln University, and the only demonstration farm of its kind in the North Island. Its staff share their knowledge with the wider farming industry to demonstrate excellence in farm performance to create a sustainable future, while providing opportunities for students to learn more about dairy farming. Tom started off his career in the UK where he completed an agricultural degree, part of which included a year in New Zealand learning about dairy farming here. This sparked his interest in pursuing a career locally. “I came to New Zealand because when I was here as a student I really enjoyed the way farmers shared information and worked together to better their businesses and the industry as a whole,” Tom said. He spent his first few years in a variety of roles in the central North Island managing herds of 440 to 4500 cows until the job opened up at Owl Farm. It was an ideal fit from the word go as data collection and analysis were fundamental to the operation. “The importance of gathering and analysing data was highlighted in my agricultural degree and in my previous jobs,” Tom said. “When I first started, somebody told me that you can’t manage what you don’t measure. Data has been a key factor here, you make better decisions when you have more information. When I interviewed with a recruitment agency they saw where my passion was and rang me about this role; they knew it would suit me to a tee.” There have been a lot of notable changes, both in the industry and on Owl Farm, during Tom’s tenure. They have a firm focus on continuous improvement and staying ahead of industry requirements. “Compliance has been the greatest

Departing Owl Farm manager Tom Buckley with demonstration manager Jo Sheridan. challenge, pre-empting what the compliance is going to be in the future and then setting a goal and a plan to reach it,” Tom said. “Owl Farm is trying to be five years ahead, so we are thinking about what greenhouse gas requirements are going to be, and the line in the sand for nitrate losses to waterways and trying to beat those. We are not just going for the bare minimum where we could be maximising our profit at the expense of the environment but trying to be better for the environment. If we are already ahead of the game, there will be less pressure on us in the future.” On farm, the first major change Tom was involved in was the stocking rate reduction. “Dropping the stocking rate has made life easier, and harder at the same time. We have dropped it from 3.4 down to 2.8 but we have pretty much maintained our production by getting rid of all the spares, chipping away at that bottom end of the herd. We are not just buying in feed to feed the bottom 10 per cent. That’s been a key thing for us, it’s made it harder to manage grass because you don’t have the same grazing pressure, and we have to really focus on grazing

management, but losing that maintenance cost of each animal you have got rid of has added to production.” The introduction of technology has been another leap forward. “First of all it was the cup removers, just before I arrived, and then Protrack, and now we have Halter. We’ve made the system really efficient by making it a one person shed, which allows more efficient use of labour out on the farm, routine jobs can be done during milking – like moving the irrigator or feeding out. Halter is a really exciting change.” Some of the greatest job highlights for Tom have been linked to the connections he has made with people both on and off the farm, and mentoring farm staff and school students. “The best thing about the job is working with some of the best people in the industry, especially our partners, and drawing off their expertise and enthusiasm,” he said. “One of the biggest growths for me is dealing with so many people.” Jo Sheridan, Owl Farm demonstration manager, notes people who have connected

with Tom are equally appreciative of his input. “Tom’s can-do attitude has meant that the farm has always been open to visitors of all ages and interests, from taking new entrants out to feed calves through to showing the best and brightest in the industry about managing farm systems in changing regulatory environments,” she said. “His commitment to sharing the journey at Owl Farm with the wider farming public has endeared him to many in the industry.” Tom said getting school students involved had been a great initiative. “Not everyone has a farm next to their school. Opening up the doors has given young people access to the industry and it sparks up their interest and opens up their eyes to the wide range of job options available. The kids that have come through the farm have been awesome. It’s been great to be able to share my skills and pass on my knowledge.” Staff on-farm are a tight-knit team and Tom has valued his collaboration with Jo. “Jo has been great to work alongside, gathering the data to what is going on in my head,” says Tom. “I can drive around the farm, make a plan, and present a question to Jo and she will collect the data, or talk to somebody, and come back to me with the information, that’s been really cool. “Full credit to LaArni Bayquin (second in charge), she’s been here for 90 per cent of my journey, and has been the superstar of carrying out instructions. One of my proudest moments was when I was out of action for three months recently and she was able to ask questions based on her knowledge and make decisions on a daily basis. She has built her confidence and skill and successfully tackled on-boarding Halter, she has done a fantastic job, and is a true asset to the Owl Farm team.” As much as he will miss Owl Farm, Tom is looking forward to the next phase of his farming career, which will include increasing his involvement in the family-owned dairy business and spending more time with his family.

Regional council leader Russ Rimmington is still at the helm despite a demand from eight of his councillors to stand down. The next couple of weeks will determine the future of the veteran politician, a former Hamilton mayor and long time dairy farmer, ahead of what could be a showdown in May. Rimmington is out of favour with eight colleague over comments he has made about Three Waters reform, and his concerns at the implications of having cogovernance over it. Matters came to a head this month when he discussed a previous censure from councillors. He told Newsroom he was “giving bloody apologies, left, right and centre” and then said proposed iwi-local government would be dangerous and disproportionate because iwi only represented 17 per cent of the population. Rimmington told the News he believed the Three Waters reform had the potential to be divisive, and the position he now found himself in illustrated that. “I expressed that view on a webinar with other local government leaders, and I could have it beter – it was clumsy.” He said he lowered his guard on the second occasion, wrongly believing he was preparing for a radio interview. Rimmington argues the Three

Waters 50-50 co-governance arrangement with iwi is not the best model for Three Waters – but he said he did not oppose cogovernance and said it worked well at he regonal council. He said his views aligned with those of Auckland mayor Phil Goff, who also opposed the coGovernance model. “Three Waters is wide than water – it’s infrastructure and plants,” Rimmington said. ”The present systems can work well – it’s worked splendidly well in Waipā and the Waipā mayor opposes it. “But where councils were reluctant to invest in their water supply for fear of a ratepayer backlash, the story was different. Rimmington believes reform of the country’s water is appropriate, but he doesn’t support ownership being removed from the communities which have funded the existing infrastructure. “Phil Goff talked about council controlled organisations owned by ratpayers and run by experienced managers who report twice a year to their councils They will have KPIs (key performance indicators) and residents will still own their multi-million dollar asset.” He believed New Zealand could be served by as many as seven CCOs – “and not just one in the South Island – there will be more accountability and in time the profits will pour back in. The eight who have called for

Russ Rimmington the chairman to stand down are Kataraina Hodge, Tipa Mahuta, Denis Tegg, Angela Strange, Waipa-King Country representatives Andrew MacPherson and Stu Kneebone, Jennifer Nickel and Fred Lichtwark. There are 14 councillors – the six are Rimmington, Pamela Storey, Stu Husband, Hugh Vercoe, Kathy White and Barry Quayle. Andrew Macpherson told the Herald “we are high performing and want to be led by someone who has got the skills that Russ doesn’t currently demonstrate”. But Stu Husband, who is a Rimmington supporter, told the Herald he was disgusted by the attempt to oust the chairman, saying of the group: “It’s just a bunch of first-term back bench councillors”.

Jonathan Bouda” “we look forward to working together with the community...” Having been given approval to build wastewater treatment plant at Hautapu, Fonterra is undertaking to build bridges with neighbours. Approval for the $85 million plant was announced last week. It will be built on the Hautapu factory site. Opponents had earlier said they were upset other sites were not considered. Fonterra opted for the factory site following opposition to putting the plant on its Buxton property in Fencourt. “We welcome the decision and are committed to doing what’s right for the long-term sustainability of the Co-op and our communities both environmentally and financially,” Hautapu Operations Manager Jonathan Bouda told Country Life. “We look forward to working together with the community on the next steps of the build.” The plant will process wastewater before it is piped to farms for

land irrigation. It is expected to significantly reduce nitrate leaching. Bouda said it was part of the co-op’s $1 billion investment in sustainability over the next 10 years in reducing water use and improving water treatment and decarbonisation at our manufacturing sites. “The proposed wastewater treatment plant will result in better long-term environmental outcomes for the region. “We believe this outcome maximises our environmental outcomes with minimal impact to the community.” A requirement of the Waikato Regional Council’s consent is that Fonterra establishes a community liaison group that provides a forum to facilitate future communication between the company, community and iwi.

REGIONAL VIEW

Freshwater consultation By Andrew MacPherson, Waikato Regional Councillor

In this article I plan to discuss the development of rules to manage the impact of land use on freshwater, the Freshwater Policy Review consultation process that is about to commence. For those of you in the Waikato and Waipā river catchments there was Plan Change 1 which invested millions of dollars in consultations around four subjects (nitrogen, phosphorous, E.coli and sediment) as part of developing the freshwater chapter of the Waikato Regional Plan. The government in 2019 wanted to address the ongoing decline of freshwater across the country. Then in August 2020 the Essential Freshwater package was introduced. The package introduced new rules and regulations designed to stop further degradation of freshwater resources and improve water quality within five years and reverse damage and bring New Zealand’s freshwater resources, waterways, and ecosystems to a healthy state within a generation. As part of this package there is the National Policy Statement for Freshwater Management 2020 (NPS-FM). To give effect to the NPS-FM, we’ll be revising the freshwater aspects in the Waikato Regional Policy Statement (RPS) and Waikato Regional Plan – our freshwater policy review. This will cover all land and waterbodies in the region, including the Waikato and Waipā river catchment chapter currently being developed through Plan Change 1. These revisions will affect how activities are carried out in our region, including taking and using water; discharges to land and water from diffuse sources; structures and works in wetlands and the beds of lakes and rivers as well as land use practices. There are changes needed to PC1 to reflect new developments including Overseer review,

national environmental standard for freshwater, stock exclusion regulations and freshwater farm plan regulations. The learnings from developing PC1 will be the starting point for the freshwater review discussions with you. Round 1 community engagement will run to June. There are a range of opportunities for the community and stakeholder to have input into the process, including online surveys, pin sites on maps, conversations with existing forums and sectors, face to face events, reference groups and topic advisory groups. To support the Round 1 engagement that explores “Here’s what we know so far, what are your ideas” a package of engagement material has been developed as a starting point for conversations and raising awareness. This material provides an overview of the Freshwater Policy review. The goal is that participants will take away a feeling that they understand some of the challenges and have had a chance to share their ideas and that what they have shared will be considered. The views and feedback shared with us will help to inform the development of a new RPS and regional plan, which we anticipate will be notified for public submission in 2024 and operative by 2026. For our region the consultations will take place in eight locations including Hamilton, Te Kuiti, Raglan and Tokoroa during May. For more information including Information sheets look for the freshwater policy review at waikatoregion.govt.nz Stu Kneebone (021 943 055) and I (021 932 624) as your representatives would value your comments on this significant piece of work that has a direct impact on many of you.

Flavours

THURSDAY APRIL 21, 2022

with Jan Bilton

Souper-duper

With cooler weather creeping up on us one thing I relish is the prospect of enjoying a bowl of hot nourishing soup. It is the perfect multi-purpose food. It can be a warming winter lunch, an after-school snack, an introduction to dinner or a complete meal in one pot. This is the season when stick or hand blenders (also called immersion blenders) come into their own. They’re great for puréeing soups and sauces right in the pot they’re cooked in. They’re also excellent for making smoothies, curry pastes, mayo and pesto and are half the price of many conventional blenders and food processors and easier to store. Clean the stick blender as soon as you’ve finished using it. Gluey mixtures tend to adhere like cement to the blades and the guard. I usually fill a container with warm water and ‘whizz’ it until the blades are cleaned. Soups need garnishes: If using fresh herbs, sauté them first until just soft — they’re easier to eat; swirl a little sour cream or creme fraiche on the top of hot soups and sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper, chilli flakes or grated orange rind; and crisp roasted kale adds a little crunch and goodness. ROASTED RED CAPSICUM SOUP This soup is a great start to dinner or an excellent light lunch served with garlic bread. At a pinch, the fresh red capsicums could be replaced with roasted capsicums from a jar, rinsed well before use. 3 red capsicums 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 medium onion, diced 2 cloves garlic, chopped 400g can diced tomatoes in juice 1 1/2 cups vegetable stock Toppings: cream dried chilli flakes to taste Turn a fan-grill to high. Place the whole capsicums on a tray in the middle of the oven. Grill for 15-20 minutes, turning often until they are lightly

charred on all sides. Place in a bowl, cover and allow to steam for 15 minutes. The skins will peel off more easily. Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a medium-large saucepan. Sauté the onion until tender but not brown. Add the garlic and cook for 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes and vegetable stock. Simmer for 15 minutes. Remove the skins, stems and seeds from the capsicums. Coarsely chop the capsicums and add to the soup. Simmer for 4 minutes. Using a stick blender, purée the mixture until smooth. Reheat gently. Serve in bowls topped with a swirl of cream and a sprinkling of chilli flakes. Serves 4.

chicken stock, water, garlic and ginger. Cover and simmer for 25 minutes then strain. Return to the saucepan and add the rice. Simmer, stirring, for 2-3 minutes. Add the thinly sliced Shanghai cabbage leaves and shredded duck and simmer gently for 5 minutes. Serves 4.

DUCK SOUP Use leftover duck bones and scraps from a roast to make a fragrant stock. Alternatively, buy a cooked duck from an Asian food store or use the trophies from the duck shooting season. A delicately- flavoured soup ideal for serving as an entrée. 1 cooked duck 4 cups chicken stock 1 cup water 4 cloves garlic, chopped 8 thin slices root ginger 1 1/2 cups cooked rice 400g Shanghai cabbage leaves, thinly sliced Remove the cooked duck flesh and shred to make 1 1/2 cups.

Cover and simmer for 25-30 minutes or until the kumara is soft. Remove from the heat. Using a stick blender, purée until smooth. Keep warm. Heat the remaining oil in a small frying pan and gently cook the remaining spring onions, until softened. Serve the soup topped with the spring onions. Serves 4.
