Home for Christmas

By Sophie Iremonger Members of the community who rallied behind the cause to bring back Cambridge’s iconic Homecoming Cross were rapt to see a new cross returned to the original spot over Te Kō Utu Lake this week.

The old cross, which stood at the northern entrance

to Cambridge since the 1960s, was taken down in 2017 after Waipa District Council deemed it was a health and safety problem, amidst construction of the new $3.1 million roundabout in the area.

But members of the community, including the Cambridge Ministers’ Association and the Cambridge Community Board, called for its reinstatement, arguing

Cambridge’s Homecoming Cross was reinstated on Monday, with a crane brought in to do the job. See page 13 for more.

that it was more than just a religious symbol, but a heritage symbol too, and could be replaced without the need for a new resource consent under council’s existing user rights.

The Cambridge Ministers’ Association stepped up and took responsibility, agreeing with council to Continued on page 13

FRIDAY NOVEMBER 30, 2018

Cambridge newsroom update This week has seen a spike in vandalism around the place, both in uprooting street signs and poisoning trees by Lake Te Kō Utu. While the street sign prank might seem funny to those who are doing it, pulling out signs such as ones telling people to give way or stop could have some catastrophic consequences if drivers don’t realise they have to do either of those things.

Anyone pulling out signs should probably take a minute to think about living with the consequences of something tragic happening because of their actions. Just a thought.

Also this week, Viv caught up with the Cambridge Brass Band as they return to the country after their historic trip to Le Quesnoy to commemorate the centenary of its liberation

by Kiwi troops. It sounds like they had a great time, and you can read all about that on page 9.

We’ve also got a mouth-watering selection of Christmas goodies from Jan Bilton on page 36, and there is nothing wrong with doing a few practice runs before the big day, just to be sure.

And for those who are rookies in the kitchen, Christmas

Editor, To see that a gated community has been developed in Cambridge causes me regret. What is this trying to say about the town - that it is a mini-Johannesburg? Or is Mike Hosking planning to move here?

mincemeat is the stuff you get in Christmas mince pies, not spaghetti bolognaise – don’t make that mistake, it doesn’t end well.

Speaking of the big day, there are also some handy tips and tricks to survive Christmas without losing your mind – you can find those on page 24. In particular I think it’s important to try not to blow your budget on prezzies.

Anyone with kids will tell you that a $100 toy winds up at the back of the wardrobe in pretty much the same way that a $25 one does, once the next shiny new fad comes along.

So don’t throw yourself off the financial cliff trying to make everyone happy, because nobody wants that.

Spending some time relaxing together without freaking out about the credit card bill looming in January is, as they say, priceless.

Editor, As an ex-serviceman of WW2 in the UK I cannot agree more with the contributions by Brian Dunstan and Stephen Williams. If the immature populace of this country where there is an ongoing need for entertainment to relieve the boredom that exists in such a young country which never experienced the bombing and resultant death and destruction that that followed nightly bombing in London and other large towns, what should be attempted is what the British Army did nearly year after year at a senior encampment at a place called Aldershot until, for a number of military reasons, it had to be discontinued. At that location, one way or another people were entertained on the subject of war well away from November 11. Take Whitehall Cenotaph and many other towns in the UK. No jollifications happen there on that particular day in question. Let maturity and solemnity be the thinking and not jollification if that is what the populace would really wish for.

Dennis W Gale Editor, We have a growing number of mobility scooters in our town, which will multiply at an exceeding rate because they are so popular. One solution to the resulting congestion on the footpath could be a painted line in the middle of it to create a scooter lane, separating them from people on foot. This would avoid “playing dodgems” along the footpaths on Duke and Victoria Sts as happens now and would surely prevent injuries.

We also need a crackdown on school children littering the footpaths with their bikes and retailers putting their wares out on the pedestrian only walkway. Scooters are here to stay, it is an issue we need to look at urgently before someone is hurt.

Artist Amanda Herbert has been at it again, livening up a telecommunications cabinet in Leamington as part of a Keep New Zealand Beautiful initiative. Her latest project sits on Shakespeare St near the corner of Browning, and features an assortment of adorable critters getting stuck into a pizza up a tree.

Last year, the Hamilton artist jazzed up five of the Chorus boxes around town, but only had one approved this year.

As well as beautifying communities, it is hoped that the art will deter vandals who would otherwise see the cabinets as a blank canvas for graffiti.

Designs had to be submitted by the artist and approved by Chorus, with successful applicants receiving between $400 and $1500 to cover the cost of paint, drop cloths and other expenses.

Foul play kills trees

By Calire Robson

Waipā mayor Jim Mylchreest and Cambridge Tree Trust chair Don Willoughby are devastated by the poisoning of five established trees on the southern side of Cambridge’s Lake Te Kō Utu. The trees, including three native totara, a cryptomeria and a cedar, are in poor condition after being discovered last week with drill holes indicating poisoning. The trees are going brown and losing their leaves. The chair of the Cambridge Tree Trust, Don Willoughby, said the trees had been planted more than 20 years ago and the act of vandalism was “rather distressing”. Don has his own strong opinions about who might be responsible and hopes the perpetrators will be brought to justice. It was the largest poisoning of trees planted by the trust in the 20 years Don has been involved, he added.

Mayor Jim Mylchreest has slammed the vandalism calling it an “attack” on the town of trees, and council

staff have handed the matter over to the police.

“I am shocked that anyone would deliberately damage such well-established trees. Council works hard to maintain our parks and reserves and this sort of wilful damage is disappointing both for the public who enjoy the trees and the parks team who maintain them.”

The damaged trees were discovered by members of the Cambridge Community Board, Cambridge Tree Trust and Lakewood Development who were on site to discuss future improvements to the area.

Council’s arborist is monitoring the trees’ condition, but they are not expected to recover and will eventually need to be removed, Mayor Mylchreest said.

He said the trees will be replaced with similar specimens and a close eye will be kept on that area.

Mayor Mylchreest asks that anyone who has any information about the damage to contact the police. The mayor would not be drawn on who might be involved in the poisoning but hoped they would be caught.

Parade fun for all

By Calire Robson

There will be black nose sheep at the Santa Parade on Sunday, but no blackface floats, according to Destination Cambridge CEO Miff McDiarmid.

There will be no confederate flags either, with none of the expected 50 floats taking up the controversial themes that have caused outrage in other towns. And Santa will be a man.

“It will be a fun day out for the whole family,” Miff said. The weather forecast for Sunday is not looking all that flash, however Miff pointed out that the weather has generally been better than expected this week, and it will be warm. Volunteers have stepped up to help make the event run smoothly, whatever the weather may bring, and Miff said she was very thankful for their support to make it happen.

Isla and Sam were the lucky winners of the New World colouring competition and will get to ride on the float with the jolly fat man, in the parade that has a “Colours of Christmas” theme – with floats sure to be featuring plenty of reds, greens, golds and silvers.

The floats will be judged on aesthetic appeal (the general look of the float, including colour and

vibrancy), people involvement with the float in the parade (the response from the crowd), originality and novelty, and active movement by people involvement with the float – namely interacting with the crowd. Categories include schools,

community groups, pre-schools and business.

Whatever the weather, the Santa Parade is always a fun way to mark the start of the festive season – it starts at 2pm and runs along Victoria St.

FRIDAY NOVEMBER 30, 2018

Speed sign band-aid for now The Government is currently reconsidering whether to proceed with the proposed Cambridge to Piarere extension to the Waikato Expressway, with the New Zealand Transport Agency (NZTA) due to appear before the select committee looking into it on December 6. Following that, the committee will draft a report that will be presented to Parliament, with local MP Louise Upston expecting that to happen next year now. Louise, who gave a submission on behalf of locals to the committee on November 8 and presented a petition signed by 3,953 people, said she was “not hopeful of good news” regarding the stalled extension that had been approved by the previous

National Government but put on hold by the current Government.

In the meantime, it is hoped that road safety at the notorious SH1 / SH29 intersection at Piarere will be improved thanks to a speed reduction due to come into place over the coming weeks. Six electronic speed signs are being installed at sites around the region, including the Tauranga turnoff that police have labelled the most dangerous intersection in the Waikato.

The signs, known as Intersection Speed Zones, detect when a vehicle is turning into or out of a side road and temporarily reduce the legal speed limit on the

state highway (from 100 km/h to either 60km/hr or 70km/h). They also do this when a driver is crossing the state highway from a side road.

This work is part of the government’s $22.5 million Boost Safety Programme which includes a range of low-cost safety improvements to make 30 regional state highways safer. Public consultation was held from March 5 to 30, with the decision to install them announced by the Associate Transport Minister in June.

Kai for all at marae

By Calire Robson

Nga Hau E Wha is gearing up to fill empty bellies and give locals the gift of company again this year, with their 9th annual Christmas lunch – and they need volunteers to help make it happen. Catering for close to 200 people last year, the Cambridge Community Marae’s chairperson Vinnie Simmons has put out the call for people to help either before, during or after the event. “We have to find work for everyone,” Vinnie said, adding that they need people to help with tasks such as putting down a hangi, cleaning, and putting up decorations. For anyone who is interested in pitching in to this special community event, there will be a hui on Wednesday, December 12 at 6.30pm at the

marae for people to come along and sign up. Primarily aimed at those who are alone at Christmas, or who might be struggling financially, the Christmas lunch has been going for nine years – making Christmas that bit less stressful and isolated for Cambridge people. But Vinnie has his own wero – challenge – to the community, asking: “Why aren’t more people doing it in the community?...Everyone can share the love.

“You just have to be brave enough to go to your neighbour or people you might know and say ‘hey, come and have Christmas with us’.”

The end date to register to attend the Christmas lunch is December 17 for catering purposes, and if anyone would like to make a contribution towards running the Christmas

lunch, Vinnie said cash would be appreciated so the right kai can be bought for the big day.

Visit cambridgemarae.org or ring Vinnie on 021 704 012 for more information on this special event.

All go in Leamington

By Claire Robson

The Leamington commercial district is getting another boost, with a new 400m2 building behind the Four Square on Campbell St nearing completion.

Divided into six shops for now, the internal walls can be reconfigured to hold between three and six shops depending on the needs of tenants, according to Nigel Brassington, the project’s developer. “We are keen to attract tenants that complement each other,” Nigel said, explaining that it is a matter of getting the right mix of businesses that will also not detract from those in the existing front shops. “And we turned down a liquor store and a vape shop, because we want to add to the community – there are enough liquor stores in the vicinity already.”

Nigel and wife Kamilya bought the property back in March 2014, and always had a view that it would be ideal for development. The building that houses the Four Square, Jumble Around and takeaway joints is owned by Nigel and another landlord, with a party wall agreement separating them. “It looks like the same building but must have been built in two lots,” Nigel explained.

So Nigel and Kamilya bought the part of the building that houses Jumble Around and the roast shop, and the house on Campbell St behind. Fast forward four years and resource consent for the new building was granted in March this year, and building consent in October, meaning work could get underway.

“I got to the point that if I didn’t start doing it, it wasn’t going to happen,” Nigel said. The council have been “really good” to work with, Nigel added, as they had to apply for resource consent to build the shops up to the boundary because the property was not zoned ‘pedestrian frontage’.

50

The Brassingtons hope that the new development will add value to the Leamington community, and “keep people on that side of the river” with services that people just want to pop down the road for, without the hassle of crossing the bridge into the CBD. The couple are adamant that they are in it for the long haul, which makes getting the right fit of tenants even more important. “We don’t consider ourselves as developers…we are investors, so we will be keeping it in the long term,” Nigel explained.

Kamilya agreed, adding that so much good energy has gone into the building, with local services used in the construction wherever possible. And that included the neighbour over the road who popped in at just the right time with a business card for the concrete firm he works for – perfect timing and another way the Brassingtons could keep it local.

The building is expected to be fully tenanted in March or April of next year, adding another string to Leamington’s bow.

Nigel and Kamilya Brassington hope their Campbell St development will add value to Leamington.

Vandalism spree

By Claire Robson A spate of vandalism around Cambridge on the weekend has left street signs trashed, with damage done to a number of give way and roundabout signs around town. Some of the signs ended up dangling through the railing of the low-level bridge, while others were just uprooted and left on the ground.

Signs were uprooted…

A council spokesperson said the budget for sign maintenance and new signs is around $250,000 each year.

“Generally, it’s been shown over many years that there is an increase in damage to street signs during school holidays,” the spokesperson said, urging anyone who is aware of people vandalising or stealing signs should contact police. Anyone noticing damaged or missing signs should report those to council.

….with some dangled off the low-level bridge after a spate of vandalism on the weekend.

Trip sounds right note for band

By Viv Posselt

Cambridge Brass Band members are trickling back into town after taking part in New Zealand’s World War One centennial commemorations in the French town of Le Quesnoy.

Those already home turned up at Monday’s band practice, where musical director Rob Hocking declared the trip a triumph and said being part of the early November commemorations had been very special for the band’s contingent of 50 – made up of 32 players and 18

accompanying family members.

Slick advance planning meant everything went like clockwork. “We managed to not lose anyone, and we broke only one,” he laughed, alluding to an early mishap that earned young bandsman Pierce Winter a broken bone in his foot just a few days into the trip.

“It didn’t stop him,” said Rob. “The principal of the local school got him seen to, and Pierce carried on playing with his foot up and a flag sticking out from between his toes.”

After leaving New Zealand in late

October, band members met up in Brussels before travelling by bus to Le Quesnoy and taking up their billets around the town from November 1.

The band performed with a local brass band and played for schools and aged care facilities – they were welcomed wherever they went and some of the local youngsters enjoyed trying out the drums at one of their gatherings. One of the band’s key performances was at the official opening of the New Zealand War Museum, where younger members were honoured by being asked to lower and raise the New Zealand and French flags.

There was a real ‘sense of place’ felt by all, Rob said. Town officials took groups

of band members around Le Quesnoy between performances, showing them areas of special relevance to the bond forged between the town and the New Zealanders who liberated it from the Germans just before the end of World War One. At 130 years old, the Cambridge Brass Band is one of the oldest community bands in the country; the visit to France marked its first official overseas trip.

Accompanying them was New Zealand composer and conductor, Dwayne Bloomfield, whose special composition entitled “The Liberation of Le Quesnoy’ was performed by the band on November 4.

Band member Pierce Winter, pictured with a French flag poking out at the bottom of his cast, didn’t let an untimely broken bone hamper his performance.

Garden festival resounding success

By Viv Posselt

The weather gods smiled on Cambridge’s inaugural Garden Festival on November 18, helping make it an emphatic success and raising around $30,000 for charity.

The event was a major Cambridge Rotary fundraiser, and aside from a brief rain shower in the middle of the

festival, clear skies allowed 1015 visitors to the 10 selected gardens to wander unimpeded and share gardening information with their hosts.

Event organiser and Cambridge Rotarian, Carey Church, said the date has already been set for the next Cambridge Garden Festival Sunday, November 24, 2019.

“Rotary Cambridge really

enjoyed running the event.

We sold 998 tickets, 90 for the Lilies by Blewdens tours, and 110 picnic lunches. Around $30,000 was raised for the three charities – the Rotary Club of Cambridge Charitable Trust, Cambridge Community House, and Victim Support,” she said.

“We’d like to thank the garden hosts for all the work they did getting the gardens ready, and

An exchange of ideas was as much a part of the Cambridge Garden Festival as was enjoying a wander through the 10 display gardens.

for being available all day to share information and talk with visitors.”

Carey said a lot of plants, preserves and garden art were also sold at some of the gardens.

“We have been surveying attendees to the festival, and there are some things we will look at doing next year. One is to make the writing on the map a little larger, and we will look at other enhancements, including having two ‘art in the garden’ gardens, and more garden art, plants and preserves for sale.”

Other preparation for the 2019 festival is underway, including a review through the lens of health and safety of a policy on access for children.

“We will let everyone know once we have finalised that,” she said. “Many of this year’s sponsors have already recommitted to next year, and we do have some opportunities offering a range of packages for new sponsors and advertisers.

“We want to run this event for many years into the future and want to make sure we have a wide variety of gardens – new gardens, garden transformations, large and small gardens, themed and country gardens that we can mix and match each year.

We don’t know about a lot of the wonderful gardens in the Cambridge area, so would really appreciate suggestions about gardens that we should investigate.”

Anyone with ideas is asked to advise festival organisers, either at the website (www. gardens@cgf.nz) or via their Facebook page (www. facebook.com/cgf.nz). Carey also asked potential sponsors or advertisers keen on being involved next year to contact her at carey@moneyworks. co.nz for details on the different packages on offer.

She said feedback from some of the visitors to the festival had been overwhelmingly positive. One person said she had returned home inspired to continue with her own garden projects; another who had purchased two additional tickets as early Christmas gifts for her two grandmothers praised the organisation that enabled the two, both in their mid-80s, to enjoy the gardens.

Carey also thanked the festival sponsors – Amber Garden Centre, Moneyworks, Powerhouse, John Macdonald Builders, Hill Laboratories, Cambridge Jewellers, Mighty River Domain, Gourmet Delicious, Rocketspark, and Kaz Design.

MPs visit Owl Farm

By Sophie Iremonger

Louise Upston was back in amongst the community last week, this time being joined by National’s Associate Spokesperson for Agriculture, MP Hamish Walker.

The Taupo electorate MP hosted the Clutha-Southland MP for a rural tour around the district on Friday, starting with a visit to Owl Farm at St Peter’s School.

While there, Walker noted his admiration for the demonstration dairy farm, mentioning the fact that Owl Farm is among the top in its field. “Do you realise you’re leading the way, out of all of New Zealand in this space,” he said during the brief tour of the 148-hectare farm, which is in its fourth season as a demonstration dairy farm with the help of Lincoln University. It was originally established along with the school in 1936 as a source of food for the boarding students and turned into a commercial dairy farm in 1974.

“We try, we do what we can,” said Louise Cook, Demonstration Manager at Owl Farm.

During their tour of the farm and wetland, the MPs were introduced to the farm’s history, its journey so far, current tasks and challenges and how they hope to tackle them, and how the government could potentially help.

“We all believe in clean water, sustainable farming, it’s just the rules keep shifting and it’s hard to keep track,” Cook said. “We’re in a position that we’re data rich, we’ve got a strong future, but the lessons we’re learning

here are financial… there is so much opportunity for us to stay in a really healthy position as an industry, but that requires change, and the biggest piece of that change is time and learning and growth.”

During their visit to the wetland, Louise Upston was amazed to see a flax bush she’d planted during the wetland opening day in 2016 had already grown taller than her. After a brief visit the MPs then headed south for a Friendly Forum with Putaruru locals.

Creative Fibre open to all

By Sophie Iremonger

Those with a creative flair, a knack for craft or a simple enjoyment of making clothing and other items may find the perfect home at Cambridge Creative Fibre. Originally started as Cambridge Spinners & Weavers over 51 years ago, the group has since been renamed Cambridge Creative Fibre, reflecting their inclusion of all things fibre-related.

President Margaret Cairns said the group provides a great opportunity for people to learn new skills and share knowledge. “We’re very friendly and non-judgemental,” she said. “You can be a total beginner or an expert.”

“We like the social side of it, and learning new skills,” said Kathy Rutter, who attends the group with her son Sam, 10, explaining that they joined a few months ago to learn to process the

fleece from their sheep.

Keen as mustard to learn the craft, Sam was given a spinning wheel which he fixed at home, so he could learn to spin his pet lamb’s fleece into wool.

Already he’s started to make a fine collection of wool which he plans to knit into a clothing item, unsure yet on what he’ll make.

He said he likes the group because, “it’s just fun,” he smiled.

The group meets once a week, at 9.30am on the first and third Thursday of the month, and 6.30pm every second and fourth Thursday, at the Cambridge Health and Community Centre on Taylor St. Each day meeting features a speaker or technique demonstration, along with morning tea. When we visited the group

recently, member Heather Millais did a demonstration on how to dye silk the eco-friendly way, using flowers and leaves from her garden.

The group has a number of spinning wheels and weaving looms for members to use and buys wool in bulk to on-sell to members. Membership is $50 a year and $3 per meeting they attend, with membership covering a range of tools they can use (besides fibre materials), a spot in their exhibition if they so choose, as well as access to an extensive library.

But the best knowledge comes from the members, which they happily share with others.

New Homecoming Cross for town entrance Continued from page 1

maintain the new Homecoming Cross in the future, and fundraised to cover the cost of the designing and building it.

Lengthy delays and red tape followed amidst confusion over resource consent, and eventually council’s community facilities manager Bruce Airey stepped in and informed the regulatory department that the cross didn’t need consent as it came under the existing user rights. And so the build was finally given the sign off, and the Cambridge Ministers’ Association received an apology over the misunderstanding.

On Tuesday this week the new Homecoming Cross was erected at the original location of the old cross, now welcoming travellers into Cambridge. It will light up each night when the street lights turn on and should be fully operational by early next week.

Cambridge Ministers’ Association spokesman Pastor Murray Smith said it was good to see the cross go up

A new website will host the videos plus other digital content to take users on an interactive journey through Waipā’s heritage sites. Phase one will showcase Karapiro, Lake Ngāroto and Pirongia township with the site to launch in August next year.

Creating the website is part of an increased investment in Waipā’s nationally-significant heritage. In July this year, council confirmed it would spend $3.6 million over the next 10 years on new heritage activities, many based around the period leading up to, including and post New Zealand Land Wars.

Council’s heritage and museum manager Tony Roxburgh said the website will be created in both English and Te Reo and will help locals and visitors explore some of Waipā’s significant sites.

The website will guide visitors to each historical site from the nearest town. Once at the site, interpretive signage will allow visitors to follow the stories via their mobile device. As well as the videos the website will contain graphic novels, audio clips, infographics and maps.

“Many see it as a heritage symbol as well as religious,

whether they’re connected to a church or not.

“I’m happy that we’ve got it back with all it represents, gleaming over our township.”

The new cross was erected on Monday and should be lighting up in synch with the street lights by early next week.

Council staff wellness scheme kicks off

Waipā District Council has flexed its buying power in a bid to get staff onto bikes and out of car-parks.The council has done a deal with local bike shop Evolution Cycles which allows its staff to get discounts on push-bikes, including e-bikes. The initiative is part of an internal wellness programme – ‘Let’s Move it, Waipā” – being driven by staff.

Chief executive Garry Dyet said he was happy to see Waipā promoting alternative transport while encouraging staff to consider issues like fossil fuel use. He said the initiative would help ease parking congestion issues at council offices in both Te Awamutu and Cambridge.

Council is anticipating around 20 people may take up the offer which involves council providing interest-free loans over two years to those buying a bike. Based on 20 people taking up the offer, the cost to Council would be around $1,850, met from an existing budget. If fewer people take up the offer, the cost will drop.

Council is also encouraging a range of other initiatives including car-pooling and walking as part of its wellness push.

Council signed off on the biking initiative on Tuesday with Mayor Jim Mylchreest saying it was great to see Waipā following on from a similar successful programme at Tauranga City Council.

Councillor Vern Wilson abstained from the vote.

The Nukes are coming Lovers of ukuleles rejoice – the Nukes are coming to Cambridge this weekend as part of their nationwide tour. It’s the first time the trio of West Aucklanders has played in the town, performing their uniquely Kiwi musical stylings.

They compose, write and perform all their own music and it is all about life in Aotearoa or some place in Aotearoa like ‘Opoutere’ - on the other side of the Coromandel Ranges, now has a song written about it as does Cape Reinga. ’Last Kauri’ is about the loggers and the tree up north a long time ago. Perhaps it won’t be long till Cambridge has one of its own after their visit here.

Their music is strong on rhythm, whether it’s a foot stomper beat or the blues, reggae or punk numbers or the gently sway of “Island Queen’

it’s hard to keep still - you can’t.

Their lyrics are witty, charming, fun, at times wacky but always wonderful with memorable and catchy melodies - you will be humming something long after the night is over.

You can tell they love what they do, they are good at it, they have fun and they pass it on.

The will be playing at the Senior Citizens’ Hall on Milicich Pl at 5pm, with a 3pm workshop where they pass on the tricks of the trade. The workshop will cover techniques, such as tab, and look at the playing skills that are useful for improving understanding of the ukulele, looking at new songs and old.

No matter what your skill level you’ll take something useful away.

Tickets are available at Comins Pharmacy, The Nukes are coming to town on Sunday, holding a ukulele workshop and performance.

MORTGAGE MATTERS

Why use a Mortgage Broker?

By Gavin Lynch – Yes Mortgages In the present loan market, most lenders are changing their criteria in regards to what, how much and to whom they lend. This makes it even more important to use a mortgage broker so you know you are getting the right mortgage and right lender to suit your needs.

I believe every client has a unique borrowing scenario and time needs to be taken with the client to understand and analyse this, so a correct lending plan and structure can be put in place to achieve goals.

In this column, I want to explain briefly the role of the mortgage broker and what I can offer.

The key role of the mortgage broker is to make the whole loan process easier for you, the client. This is possible because: I can look at all the lending options.

I deal with more than 25 different lenders and work to find the best lender to suit your unique situation.

• I can do all the ‘leg work’ with the lenders.

• This saves you time and avoids pitfalls in getting a loan approved.

• I can negotiate rates, fees, and legal contributions with certain lenders to obtain the best deal for the client.

• I can meet at a convenient time and place for the client.

• This can be in the home or workplace and after hours if need be.

• I can advise on the best loan structure to suit the client’s need.

And best of all using a broker is a free service in most cases. Now that has to be worth thinking about!

If your looking for a mortgage, please give me a call and I can help you though the whole process.

‘This is ME’ to get women active

Sport Waikato have released an exciting new video for This is ME, an initiative they have designed to support, encourage and celebrate Kiwi females moving their way.

For many New Zealand females, concerns around ability and body image prevent them from getting active, such that there exists a divide between what women and girls would like to be doing, and their actual behaviour.

And it’s no surprise that New Zealand women and girls are feeling self-conscious about getting active, particularly given the dominance of

imagery of female fitness models and elite athletes with toned physiques privileged in the media.

National research suggests that New Zealand women and girls participate in sport and physical activity less than their male counterparts, and that despite wanting to participate more, there are a number of barriers and challenges that seem to be holding them back.

The first of its kind in New Zealand, the This is ME video aims to generate a positive conversation about and among Kiwi women and girls participating in physical activity at all levels, and it is a welcome addition to the current emphasis on increasing opportunities for women and girls to feel both connected to and valued in sport, physical activity and recreation.

Sport Waikato General Manager Michelle Hollands hope that the video will encourage real women to get out there and do real physical activity, their way.

New Zealand audience, while also pointing to the ways this term has been used to marginalise females as weak, inferior and less capable,” said Sport Waikato General Manager Michelle Hollands.

Rather than showcasing high profile New Zealand sportswomen, gym junkies or marathon runners, the This is ME video instead highlights everyday women and girls participating in activities like Waka Ama, hip hop dancing, social netball, jogging, home-based workouts and backyard games.

It highlights what women and girls really look like when they get moving and takes the emphasis off the usual discourses of competition, exercise and weight loss.

Instead, these sentiments are replaced with calls for women and girls to be themselves, have fun and get moving together with confidence.

“The video is far removed from the imagery of females participating in sport or getting active that we usually see in the media.

There are no elite athletes, no women or girls with what you might consider visibly peak athletic physiques, and certainly no abs of steel. Instead, the video celebrates real women and girls doing real physical activity, and importantly the varied and unique ways they choose to engage,” Michelle said.

The This is ME video is on Facebook: ThisisMENZ and on the website www.thisisme. org.nz for women looking for some inspiration to get active. Check it out.

1ST BIRTHDAY ANNIVERSARY – OPEN WEEKEND – Saturday 1st – Sunday 2nd December, 11am-3pm both days Since our Grand Opening in November 2017, more than 70 residents have moved in to the Village to enjoy the secure over-50s lifestyle living environment on offer.

Come join us this weekend for our special celebration, meet the team and residents, enjoy coffee and snacks, and learn about the exciting

plans for our luxury Village Centre and the Stables motorhome and recreation facilities.

The completed Village will comprise 205 homes designed for independent living, a luxurious Village Centre forming the social hub of the Village, and sought-after facilities for motorhome owners at ‘The Stables’ – parking, washdown/dumpstation areas, storage and recreation sheds. There is additional convenience next door with a commercial development that incorporates a proposed cafe/ bistro and 7-day superette.

The Freedom Difference While Freedom Lifestyle Villages are registered under the Retirement Villages Act (2003), providing full legal and financial protections, there are major points of difference in our model.

Residents live independently in a safe, secure over-50s community of like minded people. No daily in-home support or medical care is provided – but all lawns, grounds and communal facilities are looked after by Freedom.

Most significantly, Freedom provides for potential capital gain if it comes time to sell – based on the prevailing market value and not your original purchase price. This is unlike other retirement villages where your loss of ingoing equity can be substantial from the day you move in.

Cambridge Oaks can be a very affordable option for you, but we do not compromise on house design, functionality or quality. Show homes are open for inspection every day, weekdays and weekends. Our lifestyle consultants can guide you through options and answer your questions about over 50s lifestyle living and the benefits of the Freedom model.

“The students will need to think outside the square and use their creative capabilities to find solutions,” said Dr Andrew Cleland, Chief Executive of Royal Society Te Apārangi. “They will also need to work well in a team situation and will be required to hone their research skills. At the end of the three days, each team will present its findings at a special presentation.”

Nu’umoe, Cambridge High School’s 2018 head girl and winner of the Youth Community Spirit award at this year’s Trustpower Community Awards, said she was “super excited and humbled” to be selected with the other students, singled out for their commitment to studying science at a tertiary level, their passion for science and ability to problem-solve. Nu’umoe said she was looking forward to the challenge of solving relevant, science-based issues: “My group’s focus area will be on New Zealand’s environmental water quality which I am very excited for.”

Nu’umoe has now officially finished high school and is looking forward to studying a Bachelor of Science at Auckland University next year, with plans for further study in medicine or pharmacy.

All costs for Nu’umoe’s flights, accommodation and social activities during the three-day trip will be covered by the Royal Society of NZ (Te Apārangi), Freemasons NZ and the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment.

“I’d just like to say I’m very grateful to Royal Society Te Apārangi for this opportunity and a huge thanks to the Cambridge High School science facility and staff for supporting me and providing me with this platform to learn and study in an area I am passionate about,” said Nu’umoe.

Stragglers car show a bit soggy club donates proceeds from the event to children with health needs that are not covered by the government, so some people who couldn’t make it over from Tauranga have said they will donate their petrol money to this year’s three recipients.

While the weather certainly kept people away, Gary said those who donned their wet weather gear and came out had a great time looking at the classic cars and caravans that turned out on the day. And fingers crossed for better weather next year.

Thirteen proved to be an unlucky number for the Stragglers Rod and Kustom Club, with a dampener put their thirteenth annual Charity Car Show at Karapiro on Sunday. Normally attracting more than 1200 cars, just over 500 hardy souls braved the adverse weather conditions to turn out for the show, according to Gary Antstiss from the club. “It was the first time it’s rained in the 13 years it’s been running, so numbers were well down,” he said. The

This year saw the number of classic cars on display less than half of last year’s turnout due to atrocious weather.

It may have been wet, but there were still plenty to see for car lovers at Stragglers Rod and Kustom Club’s annual show.

TriMāori wettest yet The seventh annual TriMāori Festival at Karapiro over the weekend was the wettest yet, but it didn’t stop over 300 people from competing in the triathlon and fun run event on Saturday.

“The weather could not hold back the kaupapa, the fun, and the enjoyment of all those who attended,” event organiser Ariana Paul said, thanking sponsors, supporters, and all those who helped make the event possible. “We had some helpful volunteers from the Waipā community - thank you.”

Participants came from far and wide, and not just

competitive sportspeople, but folks from all walks of life – people over coming health challenges and people overcoming their own personal challenge against themselves. At this event it wasn’t just about finishing first but finishing with a smile.

Auckland’s Jared Hartshorn took out the big Olympic triathlon, while Hamiltonians Cam Bichan and Kallum Mardon won the sprint and 3:9:3 triathlons respectively.

New Plymouth runner Kaia Ormsby won the 5km event and Hamilton’s Zion Lee-Deller won the 10km.

Jim does it again

By Sophie Iremonger Local cyclist Jim McMurray has been named the South Waikato Sportsperson of the Year for the fifth time, following the South Waikato District Sports Awards on November 15.

Jim McMurray, who lives between Cambridge and Tirau, has won the award almost consecutively, starting in 2013 and winning again in 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2018.

He’s now in the running to attend the Waikato Regional Sports Awards in January, where he could win sportsperson of the region.

Jim said he was pleasantly surprised with the win after seeing such a stellar line up of nominees for the award, including last year’s winner Toka Natua. “With the high standard of people there I was pretty stoked,” he said. “I wasn’t expecting it when I saw the list (of nominees). … I was pleasantly surprised.”

The modest masters’ cyclist, who also happens to deliver the Cambridge News to our readers in Piarere, averages about 450km on the bike each week in

training, not counting the paper deliveries. “I guess it’s the only way to get to the top, you’re not going to get there if you only did a couple hundred,” he said.

Jim’s award, which adds to his Male Masters’ Road Cyclist of the Year Award from Cycling NZ earlier this year, comes following a stint of racing on the world stage as well as here in New Zealand.

He won gold in Italy at the UCI Gran Fondo World Champs in September, the second time he has secured the title, and won gold at the New Zealand Road Race and Time Trial Championships earlier this year.

“It’s just a bit of recognition of hard work I guess,” he said of the new award. “It’s always a bit of a lottery, with the subjectiveness of the different sports, you never quite now if you’re going to get it… so I was pretty excited.”

Set to take part in a number of competitions around the North Island in the next few weeks, one of Jim’s upcoming races will take place near Cambridge as part of the New Zealand Cycling Festival in January, where he’ll compete in the Hobbiton Movie Set Gran Fondo on January 26.

Jim McMurray has been awarded the South Waikato Sportsperson of the Year Award for the fifth time in the last six years.

Blooming marvellous market

By Claire Robson

Bloom Collective is gearing up for market season in Cambridge, with double to number of stallholders expected at their fourth Twilight Christmas Market on December 8. Organiser Taryn Lyford said she was delighted with the response to this year’s market, with all of the available 40 places snapped up in record time. “This year is falling into place with the markets and people are showing a lot of enthusiasm,” Taryn said. Of the new stallholders lined up for this year, Taryn said one to look out for is Sew Love, a Raglan-based mobile solar sewing

school that tours New Zealand. Taryn said she has been trying to get them to come “for years” and is expecting their workshops to be popular with those looking to learn how to up-cycle textiles. As well as the traders on site, there will be high-quality gourmet food trucks, and Santa will arrive at 4pm. There will be live music, the kids can burn off their preChristmas energy at the playground and the model trains will be running at the Leamington Domain.

The Twilight Christmas Market will run from 4-8pm on Saturday, December 8, with monthly markets from January through to July. For more information check out Bloom Collective Market on Facebook.

Success for Cambridge Lacrosse loss bridge players Leamington Rugby Sports Club’s men’s lacrosse team lost to Hamilton Suburbs in their second game of the season last week, finishing up with a score of 5-7, following victory over the Hamilton Devils the week before.

“We were missing a couple of players this week, but we still had a strong team out on the field,” said coach Anthony Warrington. “We knew it was going to be a tough game because Hamilton Suburbs have quite a strong line-up with one current New Zealand player and one retired New Zealand player.”

The Hamilton team took the first goal when their ex-national player took the ball to goal by himself from behind.

“We knew he was going to be a threat, so I made it one of our defenders’ job to mark this person out of the game,”

Anthony explained. “Alistair Hearmon did a really great job of locking-off this player in their attack, considering the player had many more years than Alistair in experience. For the rest of the first half of the game this stifled Suburbs attack and we came back to be in the lead.”

By half time the score was at 4-3 due to two goals by Blake Anderson and one each by Kyle Parker and Lucas Thom.

After half time Suburbs put the pressure back on scoring a couple goals of their own.

With five minutes to go the game was tied, “but we couldn’t seem to find the back of the goal in the second half of the game,” said Warrington. Hamilton Suburbs then scored two more goals to seal the deal.

Jane Stearns and Diane Emms at the Interprovincial Bridge Championships

By Eunice Eccles, Cambridge Bridge Club

Playing as part of the Waikato Bays women’s team in the Interprovincial Bridge Championships, Diane Emms and Jane Stearns, members of the Cambridge Bridge Club, came runners up in their event. In the last round, they met the leading team which had four international players in their ranks. They played fantastically well, beating the winning team but sadly, on aggregate, they were pipped to the post by a mere 2VPs, very close!

Initially, at the end of first day of the team championships all four groups had done very well. The seniors were in first

place, with the women, intermediate and open teams well placed in second position. However, stiff competition on the second day meant that we ended with the open and women team still in second place though the seniors and intermediate teams were down in the rankings.

On the final day, Wellington, who have held the Dougal McLean Trophy for the last two years, with consistent play, pulled ahead to win the championships.

Overall Waikato Bays team came fourth out of the seven regions. Congratulations to all those who represented Waikato Bays at the championships.

Sun shines for athletics Last week’s ever-changing weather finally stayed sunny throughout the day on Friday which made for a fantastic day of sports at the Vogel St athletics grounds, where students from five local rural schools combined for a rural schools’ athletics day.

Kaipaki School organised the event in conjunction with Sport Waikato, with all students (besides junior students) from Kaipaki, Roto-o-rangi, Karapiro, Horahora and Te Miro schools taking part.

Cambridge High School students involved in Sport Waikato’s Kiwi Sport Volunteers programme also helped out on the day running some of the activities, as did staff and parents from the various schools involved.

Top place getters on the day went on to form a rural schools’ team to compete at the combined Cambridge schools athletics day being held today (Friday, November 30).

Cricket all go at new venue

Trampers take on Te Mata

By Anne Galbraith, Cambridge Tramping Club

By Sophie Iremonger

The Cambridge Junior Cricket Club is back into full swing for the year with summer cricket starting up in the past fortnight at their new premises on Vogel St. Last month the club moved under the same roof as the Cambridge Junior Football Club, sharing their facilities and fields to enable cricketers to play at the one location, and helping the two clubs share maintenance costs and keep sport at the premises all year round.

Several local businesses and the Grassroots Trust stepped in to help sponsor the construction of new pitches at the grounds, which were completed on November 7. “We’ve been really lucky,” said Steve Carter, chairman of the Cambridge Junior Cricket Club, thanking the business community, the Grassroots Trust, the football club, schools, committee and club members for their support.

Around 200 kids and families turned out to the first Friday night cricket event on November 9, where 87 kids took part in skills sessions and 14 teams played cricket. The next day saw Saturday cricket hosted at the venue with about 70 players.

“It has been fantastic to have cricket in one venue,” said Steve. “It is great to work with a club with similar vision, ideas and interest in supporting junior sports.”

Steve wished to thank project manager Kerry Johnson, the Grassroots Trust, as well as local businesses Electrix, Holcim/Allied Concrete, Waikato Aggregates, Online Contractors, PGG Wrightsons, Roderick Builders, Cambridge Hire Centre, Rob May Builders, Chris Webb Contractors, Waldron Builders, Waikato Ready Mix Concrete and Camex.

Friday night cricket at the Cambridge Junior Cricket Club is now in full swing at their new Vogel St premises.

The Pokaka river station is situated along the back road between Kawhia and Raglan where habitation is sparse. Seventeen Cambridge trampers met five friends from Te Awamutu to explore this little known area.

Prominent bluffs of Aotea sandstone, some eroded into interesting shapes, complimented the QE2 covenanted bush where tawa, totara manuka and nikau palms flourish in the warm coastal climate. We made our way up along a little used farm track to the ridge line where the hazy Aotea harbour was glimpsed through clearing mist. Pockets of farm land well stocked with sheep, curious beef cattle and a small flock of goats watched our progress. Tight Taranaki gates posed a challenge.

Beside a sturdy farm bridge over a sparkling stream we lunched and listened to the largest variety of bird life we had encountered in years – paradise ducks, shining cuckoo, tui, kereru, fantails, grey warblers, pukeko, kingfishers and a lone grey heron. Lunch over, our youngest tramper Ruby guided us back to our cars, startling a large hare beside the track. Just as we left our men folk did an animal rescue reuniting a struggling trapped calf with an anxious mother.

By popular vote we detoured to see the wellknown Bridle Veil Falls where, surprise surprise, the Pokaka river we had followed for most of the day tumbled over the 55m rock ledge into the bush clad valley below.

Weary and happy we re-joined civilisation at the Te Akau store then refreshed we made our way home.

Our next tramp will be the Christmas celebration.

FRIDAY NOVEMBER 30, 2018

Don’t stress – it’s only Christmas…

The festive season is a time to have fun, connect with friends and family, and kick back after a busy year. The simple pleasures of the season are often the best, so aim for a “keep it simple” strategy.

Overspending, celebrating to excess and undue stress can have a detrimental affect that carries through into the new year.

Plan ahead Last-minute stress, panic buying and holiday season burn-out can be alleviated by some careful planning.

Decorate, cook, shop, or do whatever is on your list in advance. If you're hosting Christmas Day, try menus you can make ahead of time or at least partially prepare and freeze. It's no fun being tied the kitchen for hours on end on the big day while everyone else is relaxing.

Delegate in advance. Ask friends to bring dishes and kids to help out. With everyone pitching in, the spirit of Christmas can be a happy, shared experience.

Budget Sadly, the high of the festive season is often followed by a depressing low brought on by overspending and financial hardship. No one wants to start their new year on this note. Be realistic with your shopping. Set a budget and stick to it. Finances are huge source of stress for many people at this time of year. The joy of getting together with friends and family should outweigh excessive consumerism.

A personal visit, a phone call or a hand-made gift can be as touching and more meaningful than a store bought present. Getting the family together to bake, make cards, decorations or presents creates a feeling of unity and happy childhood memories.

There are lots of places to go hunting for excellentcondition used items and upcycled goods, which not only help your purse but also benefit the environment.

Health and well-being Christmas is not all hearty meals, shiny tinsel and bonhomie. It can be a very stressful time. One way of keeping your stress levels down is to do things in moderation. If you're prone to excessive eating and

drinking at this time, then you may need to curb your behaviour. Too much food and alcohol is harmful. Drink driving is a real danger and alcohol plays a big role in domestic abuse.

Try to get some good sleep and keep up your regular exercise routine. Enjoy the company of others, think of those less fortunate and enhance your well-being by reaching out to others. Christmas can be an especially lonely time for people on their own. Think good thoughts and keep a smile on your face.

FRIDAY NOVEMBER 30, 2018

Para-cyclist continues to inspire

By Sophie Iremonger

Cambridge’s ever-inspiring para athlete Eltje Malzbender (pictured below) continues to push boundaries and prove her ability in the world of sport, having recently completed Hamilton’s Round the Bridges

fun run and walk event.

The cyclist completed the 6km stint of the event alongside Aaron Ure and Allan Rodger on Alinker walking bikes, with Aaron’s daughter Esther and Eltje’s niece Amrei on hand for any support along the way.

Eltje said taking part in the

event on November 18 made her feel as though she wasn’t disabled. “It was nice that I could participate in an event like that without thinking it was something I couldn’t do. I was quite well-accepted there, although I’m obviously disabled, I didn’t feel disabled,” she said. “The fact that I could do that kind of thing, mixed in with everybody else, and just be one of them, that was the nicest part of it.”

“Eltje was inspiring,” her friend Aaron said. “I greatly admire her determination to get things done despite the challenges.”

Earlier this year Eltje competed in the Para-cycling Road World Championships in Italy, placing fifth in the time trial for the T2 athlete division, despite being classed in the more disabled T1 division in New Zealand.

It came just two years and five months after she came off her bike near Waitomo in what was possibly a hit and run accident, ending up in Waikato Hospital’s Intensive Care Unit in the lowest level of coma which people can recover from, with a severe traumatic brain injury and fractures to the vertebrae in her neck. At the time doctors did not expect her to walk or talk again. But after a period of rehabilitation and determined recovery, she was representing New Zealand just

29 months later.

“I think I’m on the right track,” Eltje said of her progress. “Overall I manage a bit better with the cognitive side of my brain.

“The first year or so after a brain injury is where you progress quite a bit, and then it’s just down to what you do, and basically you just work, and I’m fine with that, because I used to do sports all my life…

And cycling certainly helps.”

Having smashed her time trial personal best (PB) in Italy, increasing her average speed from 23.1kmph to 26.4kmph, she beat it once again at the at the Canterbury Time Trial Association event

in Christchurch on October 28, bumping it up to 26.9kmph. “I was quite chuffed,” she said.

Long term, Eltje’s main goal is to represent New Zealand at the 2020 Tokyo Paralympics, and hopes to contribute qualifying points for the NZ team through a C1 cycling event being held next year. For now, she’s focussed on competing at the Bev May Women’s Tour in Morrinsville in February, the Activ8 Waikato Time Trial in March and the Road Race Time Trial Nationals in April, along with continuing her own personal improvements as well. Putting it simply, she said, “I just keep moving forward.”

Cambridge horses beat the odds

By Candice Gollan Cambridge-trainer Stephen Marsh was in disbelief when two of his horses won in hard fought fashion on Saturday.

The son of Savabeel, Starrybeel, started the day off for the team when he was successful in the Hunting and Fishing/ Farmlands Co-operative Society Limited 2100 (2100m) at Awapuni.

The four-year-old and jockey Chris Johnson were held up near the 400m mark and then raced in restricted room near the 200m mark before fighting their

way through the mob and flying home to snatch the win by half-a-length.

“Starrybeel was hugely impressive the way he won at Awapuni,” Marsh said.

“For a while it didn’t look like he would [win], but he really sprinted.”

“It was an amazing finish,” Marsh said.

Marsh said he has always held Starrybeel in high regard.

“He’s come right since he’s been gelded,” Marsh said. “He looks like he’s going to be a lovely cups horse.”

Starrybeel is on track for the Dunstan Feeds Stayers Championship Final (2200m) at Ellerslie on New Year’s Day.

King’s Cross, not to be outdone by his stable-mate, also snatched the win in a last-minute lunge to the line in the last on the card at Counties.

The seven-year-old completed the double for the day when he was successful in the HR Fisken & Sons LTD 1600 (1600m) despite facing some obstacles that almost took him and jockey Samantha Collett out of contention.

“It was a massive effort,” Marsh said.

The son of Shinko King raced wide without cover for the majority of the race before being crowded passing the 375m mark and having to be steadied to avoid

a collision.

King’s Cross looked out of the game before he got a second wind, picked himself up and took off after the leaders before making a late lunge to the line to take the win.

“It was phenomenal the way he picked himself up,” Marsh said. “He’s not the biggest, robust horse, but he’s got a lot of ability.”

King’s Cross’ next assignment will be at Ellerslie in the Dunstan Feeds 1500 Championship final on Boxing Day. “I think we’re going to have a lot of fun with him.”

FRIDAY NOVEMBER 30, 2018

with Jan Bilton

Divine Festive Delights Sweet delights bring a happy, satisfying ending to a festive dinner. And they can be prepared ahead.

I admit to enjoying conjuring up festive desserts rather more than eating them. My desire for over-the-top Christmas dinners has diminished over the years. And after serving two courses to our family, I’m more inclined to go for a relaxing glass of bubbles.

But I love watching the happy faces of my grandchildren when the trifle, pav, cheesecake, berries and ice cream are wheeled into the dining room. I prepare sweet endings that will appeal to all family members — both young and old.

The young usually say they’d like a little bit (or too much!) of everything. And little helpings of everything is exactly what they get. In restaurants they’re called tasting plates.

Steamed Christmas pudding is not something that everyone enjoys but if you like a bit of tradition then check out my microwave pudding (in my recipe collections) on the web. Make it well ahead so the flavours develop. The pud can be refrigerated or frozen and reheated in the microwave once thawed.

Serve it doused with custard, brandy sauce or one of the many yummy yoghurt dessert delights now available.

MERINGUE WREATH This is gluten and dairy-free. Use mini meringue nests or the larger ones, depending on appetites and number of diners.

You may need to increase the ingredients. The nests are available from the bakery department of your supermarket.

10-12 mini meringue nests 3/4 cup thick coconut yoghurt 3/4 cup diced strawberries 10-12 each: blueberries small mint leaves Place the meringues in a circle on a flat plate or tray. Spoon the yoghurt into the centres. Top with the berries and mint leaves.

This should be prepared at least 1 hour before enjoying or up to 8 hours. Serves 6-12.

CHRISTMAS MINCEMEAT CHEESECAKE This cheesecake can be frozen for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator. Great served topped with fresh berries.

200g plain or gluten-free biscuits, crushed 75g butter, melted 3 teaspoons powdered gelatine 2 tablespoons orange juice 200g cream cheese 3 tablespoons icing sugar 300ml cream 3/4 cup fruit mincemeat Line the base and sides of a 20cm loose-based cake pan with baking paper.

Combine the crushed biscuits and butter and mix well. Press onto the base of the cake pan. Chill for at least 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, soften the gelatine in the orange juice.

Beat the cream cheese and icing sugar, until smooth. Whip the cream, until thick. Fold into the cream cheese mixture.

Dissolve the gelatine over hot water or in the microwave then mix into the fruit mincemeat. Fold into the cream filling.

Spoon into the lined cake pan and smooth the top. Chill overnight to set. Serves 8.

Christmas Mincemeat Cheesecake Meringue Wreath

PEACH & PASSIONFRUIT TRIFLE To prevent them discolouring, sprinkle raw peaches with a little lemon juice or vitamin C powder dissolved in a little water. Poached peaches can also be used.

6 ripe peaches 4 tablespoons orange liqueur 1 cup vanilla custard 200g sponge cake 3/4 cup each: passionfruit pulp, cream (whipped) Halve, peel, stone and thinly slice the peaches. Poach in a sugar syrup, if preferred.

Combine the liqueur with the custard. Cut the sponge into 3cm cubes.

Place some sliced peaches in the base of a serving dish.

Spoon a little passionfruit pulp, over the top. Add some cubes of cake. Top with the custard, smoothing with a spoon. Add some whipped cream and smooth the top.

Carefully place more peach slices on top and drizzle with a little more passionfruit pulp. Serves 6.

Street View:

Lee Walker It’s “Father” Christmas, so no not really.

Charlotte Walker There’s always the option of being Mrs Claus instead.

After Auckland's longstanding Christmas Parade Santa was sacked following his comments that women should not be hired to play Father Christmas, we asked people whether they think Santa could be played by a woman, too.

Phil Arch It depends on whether they need to talk!

Anybody could do it really but it should be a guy.

Quick crossword 1

Barry Williams I think it’s tradition that Santa is a man, you wouldn’t have a man playing Mrs Claus.

Mark Athanasatos No of course not, Santa by definition is a man. Jesus is the reason for the season.

Jenny Santa is Santa, he’s always been a man. It’s nice to stick with the tradition.

Naina Sen’s joyful, compassionate film shows the complex, unexpected consequences of colonisation. There is a scene about an hour into Naina Sen’s documentary in which a woman in her 60s ascends a ridge. The woman is Theresa Nipper, a member of the Central Australian Aboriginal Women’s Choir. Seated on the crest of the ridge, Nipper reveals a personal history that will challenge how many viewers see their own place in relation to the impact of colonialism on Aboriginal cultures.

PICK OF THE LITTER It has an amazing topic that not many people know about, so you are not bored. It's a great family movie with so many cute dogs. Pick of the Litter follows such an adorable storyline that you just fall in love with all of the dogs as they go through many different homes. It follows a litter of puppies from the moment they are born through their journey to become Guide Dogs for the Blind. The litter has to go through two years of training with many different owners, but only the pick of the litter will get the chance to become Guide Dogs.
