An increase in traffic on State Highway 1 between Cambridge and Pairere has made the intersection with Karapiro Rd a ‘nightmare’ for locals. By Claire Castle
With uncertainty surrounding the plans to extend the Waikato Expressway to the Tauranga turnoff, concerned locals are speaking out about the urgent need for improvements to the intersection of Karapiro Rd and SH1. Dave and Lisa Roigard, owners of bus company Karapiro Charters which is based on Karapiro Rd, said that making a right turn onto the highway towards Cambridge has become a nightmare. They regularly cop abuse from other motorists trying to get into the Mobil site through the entrance right by the
stop sign, with some drivers rounding the corner on the wrong side of the road to access the station. Council said the yellow ‘no stopping’ markings on Karapiro Rd at the entrance to the service station will be repainted, however in a resource consent granted in November to the Mobil for redevelopment, the condition has been imposed that the entrance by the stop sign on Karapiro Rd be closed for safety reasons. With two quarries and a bus company operating down Karapiro Rd, the entrance is regularly and unavoidably blocked by long vehicles. But it’s not just people trying to get
in and out of the Mobil that are the problem, with the Roigards saying that the stretch of SH1 has become much busier over recent years, particularly since the expressway opened in December 2015. It’s a claim backed up by the New Zealand Transport Agency (NZTA) which said traffic volume on the SH1 route has increased from 15,000 vehicles per day in 2013 to 19,000 in 2017, with 11 per cent being high capacity vehicles. None of this comes as any surprise to the Roigards, with Dave saying he has recently had to wait at the intersection for 12 minutes until he could get his bus
across the road. And predictions are that the once the ring road around Hamilton is complete, SH1 will get even busier as motorists use it to travel north in preference to SH 27 through Matamata. The NZTA’s Director Regional Relationships, Parekawhia McLean, said that the agency is developing a new draft state highway investment proposal, based on the recent Government Policy Statement (GPS), which is expected to be released in late April. This will outline the proposed investment in state highway Continued page 2

Cambridge newsroom update
Continued from page 1
Another week has rocketed past and it looks as though autumn is well and truly upon us. On Sunday, my daughter and I went to the Mainstream Green Mother & Daughter High Tea at the Leamington Band Rotunda – part of the Autumn Festival – and I have to say I was really impressed. Not only was it thoughtful and interesting, but I was also amazed at the depth of environmental knowledge my daughter seems to have. She was full of terrifying information about trash islands floating off China and the like, and I couldn’t help thinking that it’s really encouraging that young people are so clued up about this. There might just be hope for the planet yet, assuming we don’t drown ourselves in plastic in the meantime. Also in the news this week is the uncertainty around the proposed Cambridge to Piarere project, any delay to which will affect local drivers as well as residents in the affected area. Personally, I consider turning right at the intersection of Karapiro Rd and State Highway 1 to be something of an adrenaline sport, and I’m not really a massive fan of adrenaline sports. Traffic numbers on that stretch of road are up, and it’s only going to get busier. Apparently, we’ll find out more later this month, and fingers crossed it will be happening sooner rather than later. Otherwise, we have loads of people doing cool things around the place, with our young sportspeople continuing to do us proud. And then there’s the Commonwealth Games, of course, which is going really well…just don’t mention Malawi (let’s not go there). Anyway, have a great week everyone. We hope you enjoy the paper, we’ve had a lot of fun bringing it to you (except for taking photos at the intersection of Karapiro Rd and State Highway 1, when apparently some passing drivers thought my camera was a speed gun). Claire Castle, editor
Street View:
improvements during the next three years, in line with available funding in the draft GPS. “The Transport Agency cannot give further detail on future plans for specific transport projects, including the SH1/SH29 Cambridge to Piarere project, until the public engagement process has been completed and the final GPS has been adopted.” Also concerned by the possibility of a delay to the expressway extension is Taupō MP, Louise Upston, who is urging concerned residents to sign a petition demanding government action. “The volume of traffic will increase and bottleneck just
outside Cambridge on a road we know is dangerous and not fit for purpose.” “We need to ensure the government commits to extending to the Tauranga turnoff (Piarere) and beyond to Tirau,” Ms Upston said. Last Thursday, a Karapiro man, 43-year-old Greg Brown, was the latest fatality on the stretch of SH1 when his ute collided headon with an oncoming truck and trailer unit in the early hours of the morning. The draft GPS is now open to public engagement for until May 2 and the final version needs to be adopted by government by June 30.
The Hobbiton factor Also likely to add strain on the highway and boost traffic numbers even further is a request by the operators of Matamata’s Hobbiton tourist attraction to amend the Matamata-Piako District Plan to allow for an increase in visitor numbers. Hobbiton sits between Cambridge and Matamata, with visitors using Karapiro Rd and SH1 to get there, as well as coming from the east. According to a report prepared for that council, Hobbiton’s visitor numbers have exceeded its resource consent – which allows them to have 300,000 visitors through the gate annually – with approximately 552,000 visitors in the 2016/2017 financial year. Operators are seeking a change to allow for 3500 visitors each day, 364 days a year – that’s 1,274,000 people, with practically none of them likely to be on foot. And that does not include visitors outside movie set tour hours. They are also seeking permission to hold up to 12 movie screenings and up to six amplified music events/concerts each year, as well as permission for on-site visitor accommodation and overnight camping facilities. Visit the Matamata-Piako District Council’s website for more information on the proposed changes.
With submissions for council’s 10-Year Plan closing on April 20, we asked people what they would do if they could spend ratepayer or taxpayer money on anything for the public.

Kaivolutionaries wanted By Claire Castle
Five days a week, Hamilton food rescue organisation, Kaivolution, comes out to Cambridge to collect food for those in need. Food that is still good enough to eat, but not good enough to sell, is picked up by the group and taken back to Kaivolution HQ in Frankton. From there, it is sorted and collected by a number of community groups in the city for distribution. Kaivolution is going from strength to strength, marking up and impressive 450 tons of food redistributed to the community since it started in almost four years ago, coming out to Cambridge for well over a year now. The “Cambridge round” consists of Countdown, Volare and Emma’s Food Bag – all doing their bit to divert excess food out of landfills and into the bellies of those who need it. But organisers would like to see the food stay in the Cambridge community, nourishing locals instead of hitting the road to Hamilton. Starting back in October 2014, with help from Wellington food rescue counterpart, Kaibosh, Kaivolution is keen to “pay it
forward” and help a food rescue get off the ground in Cambridge. Cambridge Community House manager, Joanne Turner, said she would love to see the initiative keep the food in Cambridge, but that the community house does not have the resourcing to distribute the food themselves. “It ticks all the boxes of what we’d like to do in the community, but we just don’t have the staff or the facilities to allow us to do it,” she explained. And it’s the same with the Salvation Army, which is equipped to hand out non-perishable food but not the fresh food that Kaivolution seeks to give to families in need. Foundation Kaivolution driver and coordinator, Simon Gascoigne, said that, for some families, when the cost of living goes up it can be at the expense of putting food on the table. “As rent and power goes up, it’s the food budget that gets squeezed,” he explained. Waipa District Council’s waste minimisation officer, Sally Fraser, said council is keen to talk with the community about how to distribute the food in Waipa rather
than sending it off to Hamilton. It’s just a question of logistics, she said, adding that plans are in the pipeline for a community hui in May about the subject – so watch this space.
Swap your crops
Crop Swap is an opportunity for people to come together once a month and bring excess produce from their garden – or anything homemade – and swap it for other produce or goods. People can bring fruit and vegetables, but there are often seedlings, jams and preserves, home baking and even crafts. The first one is being held this Sunday, April 15, at the Cambridge Community Gardens at 2a Vogel St. From 2 – 2.15pm the produce will be set up, with swapping beginning at 2.20pm. The expectation is that everyone just takes a little of what they need with an attitude of generosity and being mindful of sharing with others. Anything left over gets put into the Cambridge Community Garden front sharing box for the rest of the community. For more information phone Rebecca on 021 918331.

Quickfire News
Matamata but not Cambridge
The Matamata police station is now staffed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, however police remain convinced that the same is not necessary for Cambridge. Superintendent Bruce Bird, Waikato District Commander, said that the police have a robust deployment plan to ensure the public is safe and feels safe. “Cambridge station receives 24/7 Police coverage. It is within 25km of both Hamilton City and Te Awamutu stations. In an emergency, members of the public are always advised to call 111, when rostered staff will respond as appropriate. “Staffing numbers at any particular station across the country are based on a number of considerations, including demand,” he said. “The Waikato District Command Centre based in Hamilton constantly monitors risk and re-deploys police officers to Cambridge as required. Cambridge also receives support from Road Policing officers as State Highway 1 is considered high risk. “ Specialist Police teams such as investigation resources are deployed to Cambridge as and when required, he concluded. * * * *
Creative funding available
The Creative Communities Scheme supports community arts initiatives that help grow and promote creativity. Funds are provided by Creative New Zealand for councils to administer each year, with rounds open in April and September. For this round, nearly $21,000 is available to be allocated. Last year funding supported Waipa projects ranging from art workshops, to Christmas musicals, exhibitions and musical theatre. Projects should focus on access and participation, diversity or young people and must run between June and November this year. Application forms can be found online at waipadc.govt.nz/ creativecommunities, closing May 11. Forms can also be picked up from Council offices in Cambridge.
The trouble with bread
* * * *
Bread is the most wasted food in New Zealand, with an estimated 12,000 tons of it chucked out each year. And it’s the number one item collected by Kaivolution. Because of its short shelf life, bread is continually being replaced with fresh stock, even though it is still perfectly edible. (There have reportedly been a LOT of hot cross buns in the depot, recently). At home, New Zealanders are binning around 79kg of food per household, costing $563 per home and $872M for the country each year. The top ten things thrown away are: Bread (10 per cent), leftovers (8 per cent), potatoes (5 per cent), apples, poultry, bananas and lettuces (all on three per cent), with carrots, pumpkin and oranges rounding out the list all on two per cent. Visit lovefoodhatewaste. co.nz to find out how to cut down on food waste and save money while you’re helping the environment.
Annoying and expensive scam back
New Zealanders are again being targeted by mysterious calls from international numbers as part of an elaborate scam that emerges every few years. Dubbed the "Wangiri" scam, which translates from the Japanese to "one ring and cut", the con artists leave missed calls on the user's phone from an unknown international number. Should the user call back, they are charged premium rates of up to $50 a minute. Advice from telecommunications companies is to avoid answering long international numbers or any number you don't recognise or expect a call from and let the call go to voicemail. That way you can check if the message is from someone you were expecting or actually want to hear from. If the caller does not leave a message, ignore it and don't call the number back. * * * *

Lively meeting tackles council By Viv Posselt
Water charges, questions around growth and the topic of a third bridge were among issues raised at an unusually packed Cambridge Grey Power meeting held earlier this month. Cambridge Grey Power president Val Massey invited members of the Waipa District Council to the meeting to enable the more than 80 attendees to ask questions around projects included in the Council’s 10-Year-Plan. Guests included Waipa District Mayor Jim Mylchreest, Deputy Mayor Grahame Webber, councillors and senior WDC staffers. The final date for public submissions on the plan is April 20. The most pressing issue related to concerns around billing charges for water. Faced with a barrage of questions on the issue, Mr Mylchreest said around 1000 properties in Waipa had a complex water supply arrangement, where several households share a single water supply point with their neighbours. He said he understood the frustration of those who feared the split billing could see charges rise and urged affected individuals to contact the council. “We are aware that there some anomalies around water charges for these properties and are working hard with those people on a case-by-case basis to find an equitable solution as soon as we can. In such cases where you might have one person in one unit, and five in another, it is obviously not fair to simply split the bill. We want to deal with those issues as quickly as possible.” He said much of the problem was historical, and it would take time to tackle the engineering and
accessibility issues linked to correcting it. Several audience members said they had contacted the council but had received no response. Mr Mylchreest said all incoming notifications to council were monitored, and in cases where people had received no response, they should go back to council – in person, if necessary. “This has been a major job for us. Overall, the result will be a more equitable situation for the vast majority of people. Yes, there are a number of cases where it is not equitable – and we are working hard to sort those out. I would urge people to be persistent in contacting the council with those issues.” Cambridge Grey Power vice-president/treasurer Michael Cole queried the decision not to include a third bridge in the Council’s 10-Year-Plan. He described the need for a third bridge as critical, “particularly when one considers the population growth in Cambridge”. Mr Mylchreest said the challenge was that before the community could afford to build a third bridge, it would have to meet the government’s standard for subsidy, or costs would “be through the roof”. “You almost have to get to a point of congestion before you get to the point of a subsidy,” he said, saying the community could not fund the bridge without it. “Meanwhile, there is some work being done on preparations for a third bridge – where it would go and so on – but nothing is likely to happen within the next 10-year period.” Another audience member asked if it was time to put a limit on population growth in Cambridge, claiming that unchecked growth risked negatively affecting the town’s beauty. Mr Mylchreest said the challenge was to get growth that complemented the existing township and said a
great deal of time was spent on ensuring that whatever development was done retained the town’s character. “There are towns in New Zealand that are static – which have no growth at all. Many of them have difficulty funding their infrastructure. They’re going backwards. There are real problems attached to limiting growth.”

Cambridge Community Board update By Mike Pettit, Chairman The Cambridge Community Board (CCB) have requested a parking and transport study to be undertaken by Waipa District Council (WDC) and have had confirmation resourcing is now in place for this to commence. We received concerns which we support around the difficulty of accessing the footpath from many of our designated wheel chair carparks around town. The predominant issue is access over high and deep curbs. We have asked council to look at this and provide remedies where applicable. The CCB gave a grant towards the new town cross. If you wish to contribute towards the cross project, please contact Bridges Church as the main coordinator of
the project. The council removed the cross for health and safety reasons back in 2017. House of Science also received a grant for roving science kits for Cambridge schools. Submissions close for the Waipa DC 10-year plan (10YP) on April 20th. We encourage you to have your say. Approximately 80% of the 10YP spend is on infrastructure. The CCB Rural Tours are coming up with visits to the east side of the district on Saturday 9th May and west side Saturday 19th May. ANZAC Day services on the 25th April are being held at 6am and the Civic Service at 9am. Both being held at the cenotaph outside of the Cambridge Town hall.

E-waste collection on the horizon
Following a successful e-waste collection in Te Awamutu recently, which netted nearly 19 tonnes of waste, the Cambridge Community Board (CCB) is considering holding a similar event here. The early March collection was organised by The Te Awamutu Community Board and Waipa District Council, and CCB chair Mike Pettit said the possibility of holding a Cambridge equivalent was raised at last week’s meeting. “We are gathering information and will be putting a plan in place to hopefully do something similar over here. The scale in Cambridge is something we need to make sure we cater for and get right,” he said. Thanks to the Te Awamutu collection, more than 2,450 appliances destined for the dump can instead be stripped down into individual parts and processed into products ranging from bathroom tiles to plastic piping. Some components, like copper and gold from circuit boards, are recovered for re-use. The work is undertaken by the South Waikato Achievement Trust which provides employment for disadvantaged people. On the day, people brought along 961 small appliances (toasters, jugs etc), 159 printers, 546 assorted televisions, five large photocopiers and 81 microwaves. There were also more than 60 mobile phones, 57 laptops and even an exercycle. Waipa District Council’s waste minimisation officer Sally Fraser said the Te Awamutu event cost around $22,000 to run and money collected – anything with a battery or a plug could be handed in for a $5 or $10 fee – came to nearly $8,000. Te Awamutu Community Board contributed $7,000 with remaining costs picked up by a government waste levy fund administered by the council.
‘Steady hand’ steps down By Claire Castle
The Cambridge Community House said farewell to its chair, David Day, who stood down after two years in the role, and 3.5 years on the trust. Trustees, staff and supporters held a farewell lunch for David this week, paying tribute to his quiet and gentle style of leadership. Trustee Penny Pickett described David as “a steady hand on the tiller”, a sentiment echoed by others at the farewell. Community house manager,
Joanne Turner, was full of praise for her outgoing boss. “You are one of the best role models and mentors of my life,” she said, thanking him for being a “backbone” for her in the position she took over last year. Former trustee, Anne Maclure, paid tribute to the chairperson she had recruited from the CAB, describing him as a “quiet and respectful leader”. “He had to learn calmness over 50 years of marriage,” his wife Gill joked.
David said there would never be a perfect time to leave the trust, but that now was as good a time as any. “I love this place, my heart is in this place and will always be here,” he told the assembled group. Shirley Stephens has stepped up as chair of the trust, with Carolyn Casey taking the position of deputy chair. David will continue in his role as president of the Waikato JP association and a volunteer at the Citizen’s Advice Bureau.

Mainstream Green high tea a winner
Claire Castle and her daughter, Molly, headed along the Mainstream Green Mother and Daughter High Tea at the Leamington Band Rotunda at the weekend, the first of two held in Cambridge on Sunday. The event’s organiser, Nic Turner, said the idea came about after attending birthday parties with her four-year-old daughter. “Birthday parties have the
Dare To Be Different?
potential to create quite a lot of waste,” she said. So, she teamed up with council to run the event as part of the Autumn Festival, and said she was thrilled that the two events in Cambridge and two in Te Awamutu sold out quickly. That was, she said, a testament to the increase in public interest around reducing waste over the past 12 months. And by hosting events such as this, which are fun but with a serious message, Nic hopes to promote ‘greenfulness’ – being mindful of the environmental impact you are having in your everyday life. Which sounds pretty good to me. There were seven pairs of mothers and daughters in attendance, which was the perfect number for the rotunda to accommodate, and with fabric bunting flapping in the breeze we sat down to enjoy a spot of high tea with an eco-friendly message. After a bite to eat, Nic talked us through her journey towards more sustainable celebrations, including the Japanese art of Furoshiki (wrapping presents in scarves) or using the kids’ artwork as wrapping paper, avoiding handing out goodie bags (let’s face it, most of the stuff gets broken by the time you get home, anyway), and giving experiences as gifts instead of presents. To that end, once the formalities were over, the girls set about making ‘fairy gardens’ in Mason jars. With pebbles, dirt and moss, the terrariums are self-sustainable and very environmentally friendly – the jars were from the opshop and everything else could be chucked back into the garden – fun to do and kind to the environment. It was a winner.
The mums I spoke to said they had enjoyed the hour-long event, and more than one ‘mum radar’ was activated when Nic mentioned the possibility of doing an equivalent for fathers and sons in the future.

Kendall his perfect job. Waikato-born and raised Kendall has been appointed group finance manager at Waikato Regional Airport Ltd (WRAL). WRAL, owned by five Waikato-based councils – including Waipa – owns the Hamilton Airport along with subsidiaries Hamilton and Waikato Tourism and Titanium Park Limited. Kendall, who did his schooling at St Paul’s Collegiate in Hamilton, is an active pilot and flying instructor and says being based at WRAL’s offices at Hamilton Airport is “like coming home”. “For as long as I’ve been driving cars I’ve been flying aeroplanes, so
I know the airport pretty well,” he said. One of four pilots in his family, he instructs for a small flying school at a privately-owned airfield north of Hamilton. He is also a board member of Sport Aviation Corp which licences microlight pilots for the Civil Aviation Authority. Kendall joins WRAL following more than eight years at the Hamilton office of international accounting firm, KPMG where he managed the audit division. In other airport news, Fridays are about to get even busier with the introduction of an extra weekly flight to and from Wellington.

The additional Air New Zealand flight to Wellington launched on Friday (April 6), leaving Hamilton at 12.55pm. There is also an additional inbound flight from Wellington into Hamilton on the 68-seat seat ATR aircraft, arriving at 1.45pm. Chief executive Mark Morgan said the additional flights meant more than 1,100 passengers would be passing through the airport’s gates each Friday, making it the busiest day of the week. “Planes have been going out of Hamilton to Wellington quite full and so the additional 136 seats each week will be very welcome,” he said.

Thornton Club – three years on By Sophie Iremonger
The Thornton Club has reported an increase in membership since two of the town’s longest-standing clubs, the Cambridge Bowling Club and the Cambridge Club, joined as one inside the iconic Thornton Rd building. Now known as the Thornton Club, they’re welcoming more locals to come along and join in on their social nights or bowling afternoons held weekly at the historic bowling green on Thornton Rd. Prospective members can “have a go” on the green, bowls provided, or enjoy drinks and nibbles inside the clubhouse, originally established in 1898. As a historic site, crucial fixes were needed inside the old building, so last year club members rallied together to raise $25,000, with the help of supporters, to complete much needed wiring and refurbishment repairs. This year they hope to continue adding to the clubhouse and grounds, with the goal of raising another $25,000 in 2018. So far, they’re on track with a few fundraising events planned for the coming months. “We’re just enhancing a unique facility for members of the community,”
explained Peter Hand, the club’s fundraising coordinator. “It’s for the future of the community, because it’s an icon. We’re keen to see it being used, for the wider benefit really. It’s a bit like we’ve amalgamated into a community club, rather than just a bowls club. You’ve got the social side of things, you’ve got darts, pétanque, private functions, hiring…so in association with bowls there’s all those other things which are available from the club.” Thursday and Friday nights are designated as social evenings, kicking off at 5.30pm, with raffles and a membership draw. Wednesday nights are quiz nights, and weekly bowls are played on Wednesdays and Saturdays from 1pm. “Anyone can come along,” said club president Graham Henshaw. “New people can have tuition and training…bowls are provided.” With over 160 members on the books, the Thornton Club welcomes more Cambridge locals to get involved. To sign up, find out more, or to enquire about donating or sponsoring fundraising efforts to keep the beautiful 1890s building alive and well, contact Graham on (07) 210 0255, or Peter, 021 372 555.
Battle of the Bridge gives back The Cambridge Volunteer Fire Brigade is the recipient of last year’s collection money from the Battle of the Bridge rugby match, getting a $1,000 boost to its coffers. Co-founders of the annual event, Mike Cochrane (left) and Mark Nogaj (right), presented a cheque to chief fire officer Don Gerrand (centre) last week. Don said the money would help to pay for the brigade’s set of stateof-the-art new Hella Uni Max lights, which he said are proving to be a valuable addition to the fire truck. Mike paid tribute to Dave Peters and Frank Callaghan for their hard work last year, also thanking sponsors and supporters for making it a great day. He also took the opportunity to announce that this year’s Battle of the Bridge will be held on Saturday, August 18, at the Leamington Sports Club.
Members of the Thornton Club, formerly known as the Cambridge Bowling Club, have seen an increase in membership since merging with the Cambridge Club. Pictured: president Graham Henshaw, treasurer Roy Shepherd and fundraising coordinator Peter Hand.

Magic players hit town By Jon Davies
Just a month before the new Premiership season starts, netball fans in Cambridge were given an early treat with the visit of Waikato Bay of Plenty Magic for a special community day. As part of their sponsorship deal with Challenge Fuel, players from the Magic netball team visited the Challenge Rockgas station on Duke Street handing out club merchandise whilst fans were also given the opportunity to have photos taken with members of the 2018 squad. “It’s always great to get out amongst
the local community”, said Magic defender Kate Lloyd. “It’s also very important that we help support our sponsors and that is what days like this are all about. “It is good to visit the local towns and communities and see how they function and helps us build relationships with our supporters which we are all passionate about.” With the Magic’s first match of the season in May fast approaching, fans were also treated to passes to some of the team’s home games in Hamilton, and Lloyd hopes that might encourage some young fans to take up the sport.

Cyclists earn national track titles By Sophie Iremonger
Cambridge Middle School now boasts two national champions and record holders following the National School Track Championships held late last month at the Avantidrome. Mackenzie Barnett and Jack Whittall, two Year 8 students who happen to be born just three hours apart, each won the national titles for U13 girls and U13 boys respectively, having won their three races, the 550m sprint, 2000m points race and 1500m scratch race.
Quickfire Games Cambridge athletes are making their mark at the Commonwealth Games taking place in Australia.
St Peter's student Charlisse Leger-Walker, the youngest ever Tall Fern at 16 years old, has been working wonders with New Zealand's senior women's basketball team. During their first game against Malaysia on April 5, the Kiwis won with an impressive 86-44 victory. Leger-Walker scored New Zealand's opening basket and went on to earn nine points for the team, five rebounds, three assists and three steals. In their second appearance on the Commonwealth stage, the Tall Ferns once again made a comprehensive victory winning 80-49 over Jamaica, Leger-Walker racking up an incredible 18 points in 24 minutes. The Year 12 student knocked down six of her 11 shots, including four of seven from beyond the arc. She also scored six rebounds, four assists, a steal and a blocked shot. Then on Sunday the Tall Ferns faced India winning 90-55, their highest Commonwealth score so far, with Prince Charles sitting in the audience for the second half. Meanwhile Cambridge's squash superstar Joelle King struck gold on the women's singles finals day on Tuesday (NZ time), becoming New Zealand's first ever singles gold medallist. The 29-year-old beat England's Sarah-Jane Perry, clinching the match 16-14, 11-8, 6-11, 11-13, 11-8 after 78 minutes of close competition. New Zealand's Cambridge-based track cyclists have made history at the Commonwealth Games, bagging a record 12 medals, one more than their previous best in Glasgow. It all started with a gold medal and two silvers on day one – silver for the women’s pursuit team (Rushlee Buchanan, Racquel Sheath, Kirstie James and Bryony Botha), silver for the women's sprint team of Natasha Hansen and Emma Cumming, and gold for the infamous men's sprint team of Eddie Dawkins, Ethan Mitchell and Sam Webster – NZ's first gold medal at the Games. Hansen went on to collect her second silver medal in the women’s individual sprint, Eddie Dawkins winning bronze in the keirin, and another bronze for Dylan Kennett in the individual pursuit. Sam Webster won the men’s sprint final in champion style, securing his seventh Commonwealth medal since the 2010 Games in Delhi, placing him second behind Gary Anderson as New Zealand’s most medalled cyclist at a Commonwealth Games. Emma Cumming also picked up her second bronze of the Games during the women’s 500m time trial, and Campbell Stewart grabbed a silver medal in the men’s 15km scratch race. The final day of track racing saw Eddie Dawkins win silver in the 1000m time trial, Natasha Hansen bronze in the keirin, and Campbell Stewart winning silver in the blue riband 40km points race.
“I was pretty stoked,” smiled Jack, Mackenzie adding, “It’s really amazing to win such a title, but it makes it even more special when you win it with somebody you know.” FIGURE 3.2.1 Being the first-ever National Schools Track Cycling Championships, their wins are also counted as records for the competition, which the pair were rather rapt about. “I’m just so excited about it for some reason, that we get to be the original recordsetters.” said Mackenzie. And there’s a good chance their records could stick for a while, having finished their races well ahead of the pack, in one case a half-a-track ahead. “I think that we might hold the records for a couple of years,” Mackenzie said with a smile, later adding, “Jack and I managed to get some good leads through tactical thinking.” It’s been just a year and a half since Jack and Mackenzie started track cycling, under the wing of coach Colin Dixon at the Avantidrome. “Track cycling is an extremely tactical sport,” Mackenzie said. “You normally get behind the people in the front for most of the race, and then when you know that you’ve got enough energy, and it’s coming FIGURE 3.2.3 to the end, you pull up and around, and basically use most of your energy sprinting to get ahead and just keep going as fast as you can until the finish. Then when you get off the track and go down the ramp your legs are like jelly. It’s really fun.” “To sum it up, it was an incredible experience,” Jack said. “It was a good experience for all of us, not just us winning, but the other cyclists from our school who FIGURE 3.3.1 fun doing it.” did it as well. I think we all had Next up, the pair will compete in the North Island Schools Road and Track Cycling Champs in July, being held in Cambridge, followed by the National School Road Champs in Christchurch in September.

Basketballers off to the US By Sophie Iremonger
Twenty Cambridge High School students will embark on a whirlwind tour of the United States in July, spending just over a fortnight gaining invaluable experience in the game of basketball. The students have been fundraising for the trip for the past 18 months, many getting afterschool jobs to help earn their keep. But one thing they’re hoping the local community can help with, is getting tour shirts and associated gear. “Individual fundraising for the trip has been going well, they’re putting in the hard yards, but we’re looking for local businesses keen to support the tour,” explained CHS sports coordinator Tony Broadbent. “We’re looking for a range of sponsors, for things like tour shirts, bags, because it’s really cool to have everyone looking the same. “Money’s tight and the exchange rate isn’t great…so if we could get some help from a local business… we’ll put their name and logo on our shirt… that’s really what we’re looking for.” The band of 20 CHS students and six adults will touch down in San Francisco on July 3, heading to New Jersey four days later for an intensive
six-day camp playing “all day, every day”, followed by four days in New York City and three days in Honolulu. “It’s about that experience of going overseas with your friends, but also the basketball coaching that they’ll get from it,” Tony said. “Playing with Americans, when you’re over there, it just makes all the difference, they’re really into it, and they learn from that.” While in New York, the Cambridge basketballers will hire a few outdoor courts to run a 3-on-3 competition in the middle of New York City. Then it’s on to Honolulu where they’ll play against a local school that Cambridge High schoolers have played against on past US trips. “It’s basketball as we go, but it’s also really a sightseeing world trip for the students, some of these guys haven’t been out of the North Island, let alone in the US,” said Tony. Student Desse Proebstel, who has never left New Zealand, said he’s most looking forward to “seeing what it’s like on the other side, experiencing new places and things in the world”. “I’m sure it will be a lot different to New Zealand,” he said. Anybody interested in helping the team can contact Tony by email, bb@ camhigh.school.nz, or phone the school on (07) 827 5415.

Cambridge High sailors flying high
Cambridge High School’s sailing team were kept busy last month competing in several events. A team of eight young sailors competed for the elusive Burgess Cup trophy at Hamilton’s Lake Rotoroa on Friday March 16, finishing in second place once again. It was still an excellent result, having lost by six points to Hamilton Boy’s High School’s team of thirteen sailors. It was also the first regatta for Year 9 newcomers Mikayla and Heather Anne Knowles. Then the school’s 420 team, which
included one member from Hamilton Boys’, travelled to Taupo to compete in the three-day Secondary School Teams Racing regional regatta from March 18 to 20. The Cambridge team won 3/6 on the first day to make the Silver Fleet for the following day’s racing, where they easily beat all opposition to win the Silver Fleet trophy. Later this month, the 420 team is off to Algies Bay, Warkworth to compete in the 2018 Secondary Schools Team Sailing National Championships over April 21 – 27, where over 300 sailors will take part.
A mixed-age team from CHS took part in the Burgess Cup regatta. Pictured: Hinewai, Heather Anne and Mikayla Knowles, Jessica Miller, Callum Ewing, Hunter Paine, Cameron White and Hamish Elliott.

Local horses shine
by a very small margin. Highlad has the Listed Hawkes Bay Gold Cup (2200m) at Hastings this Saturday as his next target. Cambridge-trained Sultan Of Swing won the Team Weallens Handicap (1400m) on Saturday at the Te Aroha racecourse. The five-year-old son of Bachelor Duke showed that he was in top condition to take on his Group Two challenge after winning at Te Aroha. Partnered with Jockey Sam Weatherley, Sultan of Swing settled back and then powered home for the sixth win of his career. Sultan of Swing has had five appearances this preparation for two wins and three placings.

Cambridge-trained Highlad won the J. Swap Te Aroha Cup (2200m) with a nail-biting finish on Saturday at the Te Aroha racecourse. Cambridge trainer Andrew Forsman had hinted that he favoured the fouryear-old son of High Chaparral to win the race over stablemate Show The World. Forsman thought there would be a sprint battle at the end but the Hastings-trained Saint Kitt set a solid pace at the front. Jockey Michael Cameron got Highlad into a position to challenge the leader on the home corner before finding clear ground and fought tooth and nail to the finish where Highlad beat Bizzwinkle

Mixed fortunes for football sides By Josh Easby
Cambridge football supporters had a weekend of mixed fortunes as winter season play got underway for all senior men’s and women’s competitions. In the Northern League, the Reds stumbled to a 3-0 loss at home to Papakura City, their first loss in the competition, but the club’s reserves and women’s team both registered strong wins. Little seemed to go right for the Reds against Papakura City in the main game at John Kerkhof Park and the visitors took full advantage. Cambridge were missing some of their first team regulars, including skipper Patrick Woodlock, Kieran Hills and Jamie Woodlock, but gave a debut to former Stoke City striker Wayne Teague and had the return of midfielder Marcelo Sosa. While Cambridge will be
disappointed with the result, the team will take some consolation from knowing the final score flattered Papakura. The Reds travel to Auckland this Saturday to play Onehunga Mangere United, coached by former All Whites Brian Turner and Dave Taylor. A brace by newly-signed striker Chris Walker provided the platform for an impressive 4-1 win by Cambridge Reserves against Papakura City. Walker, who joined from Matamata Swifts last month, scored in the 46th and 75th minutes. Cambridge went ahead early thanks to a powerful header from skipper Dehein Hindley. The Reds then had most of the first half chances, with striker Chris Walker and Andrew Taylor both going close. However, Papakura found the net in a goal mouth scramble on the stroke of halftime, sending the teams to the dressing
rooms tied 1-1. Cambridge came out strongly in the second half and scored almost immediately through Walker, with Alex Mukaka adding another in the 53rd minute to make it 4-1 before Walker sealed the win with his second. Cambridge lost their opening game of the Loaded WaiBOP Championship, tumbling 3-1 to competition newcomers Kawerau Sports. The visitors took an early lead, and then took control in the second half at John Kerkhof Park. Cambridge pulled a goal back through Franco Rigourd but lost Toby Hartley to a second yellow card late in the match. Next weekend, Cambridge travel to meet
the competition’s other newcomers, Te Puke United. Cambridge’s women’s first team got their season off to a flying start with an impressive 5-2 win in a local derby at Te Awamutu. The performance was highlighted by a hat-trick by striker Rachel Hill, named the Hill Homes Player of the Day, and impressive senior debuts from young players Paris Le Gros and Libby Griffin. Both Cambridge’s federation youth teams started their regional league seasons with 2-2 draws. In both games, Cambridge’s U-13 and U-12 boys teams had half-time leads, but their visitors came back to share the points.

THE LITTLE VAMPIRE
The story of Rudolph, a thirteen-year-old vampire, whose clan is threatened by a notorious vampire hunter. He meets Tony, a mortal of the same age, who is fascinated by old castles, graveyards and vampires. Tony helps Rudolph in an action and humour packed battle against their adversaries, and together they save Rudolph's family and become friends. Honest and heartfelt. Could be scary for littlies.

A WRINKLE IN TIME
This big-hearted adaptation's payoff is more emotional than technical, but thanks to touching performances, inclusive themes and inspiring messages, it's easy to appreciate. The tween-friendly movie follows brilliant 13-year-old Meg Murry (Storm Reid), her genius little brother and her friend on an epic, perilous journey to find her long-missing father. They're guided on their dangerous voyage across time and space by three supernatural beings: Mrs. Whatsit (Reese Witherspoon), Mrs. Who (Mindy Kaling) and Mrs. Which (Oprah Winfrey). Like the book it's based on, the movie features some intense scenes of peril: Kids nearly plunge to their deaths are whisked away in a twister or are stuck for eternity and there's a scary moment when three people are dragged to an evil overlord. But while the kids are bruised and knocked down, no one dies or is seriously injured and the frightening moments are temporary. The movie, which is remarkably varied, promotes positive messages about trusting in your abilities, asking for help and believing in the power of love, courage, perseverance and teamwork.

ACADEMY AWARD WINNER: BEST FILM & BEST DIRECTOR
FRIDAY: 8.15PM - SATURDAY: 8.10PM - TUESDAY: 8.15PM (PG)
“I must admit, I had my doubts, but RP1 is insanely good! I don't think I've ever had that much fun at a movie theatre, it truly was an experience. Bring your friends, or your kids, or anyone and enjoy that ride that is RP1.” Milena. The film centres on a young outcast named Wade Watts. In the near future, Watts escapes from his daily drudgery by logging onto a massively multiplayer online game (MMO) called 'The Oasis'. When the game's billionaire founder dies, he offers players his fortune as the prize in an Easter egg hunt within The Oasis. Watts gets in on the action then after five years finds himself facing off against corporate foes who will go to any lengths to get the money, in both the real world and in The Oasis.

“Smart, clever.” Tony. A highly entertaining and intense thriller reminiscent of the original ‘Alien’. John (The Office, 13 Hours, It’s Complicated, Aloha) Krasinski has crafted a movie that demands to be seen on the big screen, with an audience as terrified as you and yes, it WILL scare the pants off you! It’s very good. (Scary for children. We recommend parental guidance)
