Help for population boom By Sophie Iremonger Cambridge is growing, exponentially. Combined with the Waipa district, it needs around 212 new households per year to cover the growth. That’s why council staff and independent developers are putting plans in place to cater for the forecasted 13,456 additional households in the next 30 years. The town’s population boom has been largely catered to in the past half-decade by Cambridge Park, Cambridge North and St Kilda subdivisions, but in the past three years Waipa District Council saw they were nearing capacity, and identified new areas of residential growth in Cambridge. These became known as the C1, C2 and C3 growth cells, located to the north west of Cambridge. Council has moved to rezone these areas from rural to residential and commercial areas, which will come into effect on March 14 after public consultations closed in January of this year. Already the 143-hectare C3 section between the Waikato River and Cambridge Road is booming with development, with the Te Awa Lifecare resthome and village nearly completed, and plans in place to add 600 to 800 new homes next to St Peter’s School. Plans for the St Peter’s subdivision are in the early stages – sections won’t be available until at least 2021, but the idea is to make St Peter’s the centre of a community. “It’s about St Peter’s opening the gates,” explained the school’s trust board chairman John Erkkila. “To cut a long story short, we have a view to maximising our assets … and how can we create economic sustainability out of the organisation.” The idea is that the project will utilize assets to benefit the school and the wider community. More details will be released later this year, when the project is opened to the community for feedback. “This is very early days.” The subdivision will likely include 3.5km of riverfront property, covering an area from the river almost to the road (Cambridge Road), stretching from the Te Awa development next door to about 200m east of the Avantidrome.

St Peter’s School trust board chairman John Erkkila says the sale of some of the school’s farm land for subdivision will benefit both the school and wider community.

Allyson Gofton, the popular face from television’s Food in a Minute, says living in Cambridge is just brilliant after spending more than a quarter century in Auckland. “It’s called the town of trees and champions but they should add manners on to that,” she laughed. “It’s the most well-mannered town I’ve ever been to. I love the way people stop at a pedestrian crossing!” The Tasmanian author of over 30 cook books made an appearance at the Avantidrome last week, speaking to a group of St Peter’s School students about her nearly three-decade career in New Zealand media – cooking, writing, marketing and becoming the familiar face Kiwis would see every night on television at 5.59pm. Having officially become a Leamington resident in the past fortnight, she’s now finding her way in Cambridge with husband Warrick, who still commutes part of the week to Auckland, son JeanLuc and daughter Olive-Rose, both students at St Peter’s School.

“It’s a community that raises a family and this is a lovely community to raise a family in,” she said. “And everybody is so unbelievably friendly. Not that Auckland people aren’t friendly, but people have more time here. It’s a “Hello, how are you?” rather than just a “Hi” in Auckland, and that’s the difference.” Still settling in, Allyson says she has a three-car garage literally full with beautiful items from her food shoots over the years, including the plates, bowls and platters that featured alongside her famous dinners. She’s planning on having “the mother of all garage sales” to get rid of it all, and will keep us posted on when that will be open to the public. “I have not yet found the iron,” she laughed, having resorted to an old girl guides tip to press a school uniform under a mattress. With the last 25 years spent in the Auckland suburb of Meadowbank, Allyson is still getting used to doing the school drop off in half the time it used to take. “It really makes it a pleasing trip,” she said. Now doing yoga twice a week, and a frequenter of the Te Awa walk and cycle way, she feels as though she can start to call Cambridge home. “Driving through Cambridge this morning, it was so alive, people out having breakfast. I just smiled and thought, this little place buzzes.” As for our food, the celebrity chef said she was quite impressed with what the cafes, restaurants and takeaways have to offer. “We haven’t had a bad experience,” she said. “I do have to say I’m quite impressed with the Queen Vic Chippy, their grilled fish wrap is fantastic value for money with good flavour, a really good healthy takeaway.” Encouraging St Peter’s students during her talk on Friday to pursue their passions in their career, highlighting her own experiences in the process, she said she hoped the message really shone through. “One of the things I hope I’ve encouraged them to do is, you don’t always have to rise to be the general manager of a big international company, you can have a good happy healthful life in many of the towns that New Zealand boasts, really we can.”

The day aims to celebrate the social, economic, cultural and political achievements made by women, as well as celebrating gender balance. Dozens of events have been planned around the country, including a sold-out Breakfast at Parliament event in Wellington.

Local hairstylist does us proud on the international stage By Viv Posselt So far, 2019 is shaping up to be a good one for Cambridge hairstylist Laura Williams. She’s just back from another dream trip to the ‘Big Apple’, where she made up part of Wella’s backstage team at the February 4-13 New York Fashion Week (NYFW). Despite having rubbed shoulders with some of the world’s top models during previous fashion week events – three times in New York and once at the Paris Couture Fashion Week - the excitement never dims. “It’s an amazing thing to be part of … I love the session styling, and it really keeps me on trend,” she said last week, adding that she will be back in the US for the next NYFW

event in September. “I’ll keep doing it as long as they will have me.” Laura’s combination of skill and grit got her there in the first place, and serves her well at these lavish affairs. “There were 40 models in the show we just did – we were a team of 12. This time around, there was one model who had just 10 minutes before the show started … six of us worked on her at once to get her ready in time. “You might find yourself in that situation, or you could have a couple of hours to work on a more complicated style. Either way, you have to be adaptable and be open to anything. We’re in a team environment, working backstage with a designer and a hair director. All we do is the styling … we’re don’t cut or colour the hair. But we get all types of models with a range of hair types, from afro to completely shaved heads, and we might be working with wigs. It’s not as much about being creative as it is about being able to deliver exactly the look wanted by the designer.” Laura was one of just five hairstylists taken to these events by Wella from the Australia/New Zealand region twice a

year. Applicants have to go through a tough auditioning process; those selected become Wella ‘ambassadors’ for each fashion week. The eight days in New York can be pretty gruelling, Laura said. “We generally get a 6am call time, with the show scheduled to start around noon. We might be done by around 2pm, so we do get some time to ourselves. Everyone gets to know everyone else … it’s a bit like a family. Quite a few of us go each year, so we’ve become pretty close.” The Waikato hairstylist, who hails from Te Kauwhata, moved to Cambridge about four years ago. This year started particularly well, with Laura looking forward to more professional growth on the world stage while also focusing on a new Victoria Street salon opened in early December with partners Wayne Richardson and Paul Ganley. Called ‘White’, it’s a sleek spot with minimalistic appeal and New York ‘loft’ touches, like the rough brick wall at the back, that are particularly close to her heart.

Visits bridge the generation divide By Viv Posselt

Little ones from Cambridge’s Jump Start Educare enjoyed another of their regular visits to Bupa St Kilda Care Home recently, this time taking along some muffins specially baked for the care home residents’ morning tea. The visits have become a monthly fixture for both Jump Start and Bupa St Kilda, and are seen as beneficial to both. Some of the children go along regularly and have developed close relationships with the residents. The children’s educare centre plans to host a grandparents’ afternoon tea later this year at which they will share some planting and other activities, both with their own grandparents as well as some visiting ‘grandparents’ from Bupa St Kilda. This time around, the children also took a portfolio of their work with them to show residents how well they were progressing across a range of Jump Start activities. Brenda Boyce, acting care home manager at Bupa St Kilda, said the residents loved the visit. “Their faces just light up when they see them,” she said. “They really love having Jump Start’s Indigo Hogg shows some of her work to Bupa St Kilda Care Home resident Sally the kids here.” Cullingworth.

Ready, set, run Organisers hope the eighth annual Waipa Fun Run will attract another stellar turn out this year, when the event kicks off on Sunday morning. The 2018 event saw 638 people compete in the walk-or-run fundraiser, some coming from as far as Auckland, Te Aroha, Otorohanga and even Spain to compete. “It is so pleasing to see our community come together along with people from further afield,” last year’s organisers Donna Warwick and Lisa Hodgson said. “Seeing the happy faces of both the young, and not so young, finishing their event, and all the parents supporting their children

gave us immense satisfaction.” The event is held every year as a fundraiser for St Peter’s Catholic School, having started in 2012. It has also become a fundraiser for Cambridge Lifeskills – a non-profit agency which provides free counselling for children and young people in Cambridge. $1 from every entry goes towards the organisation. Racing kicks off from 9am at Victoria Square on Sunday, starting with the 10km segment. This takes participants all the way to Lamb Street via Pope Terrace, Bracken and Shelly Streets, returning by way of Carlyle and Wordsworth Streets. The 5km segment, starting 9.40am,

takes racers across the river for a brisk loop around Pope, Coleridge and Burns Streets. The 2km schools challenge, which attracts over 300 entries each year, is supervised by Team Energize and event staff so that children can participate on their own. Designed for those in school years 3 – 8, the course runs around Victoria Square before

taking a wider loop around the CBD. It kicks off at 10am on Sunday. Entry for the schools challenge is $7 per child, and entry for children in the 5 or 10km segment is $17. Adult entry in the event is $30 per person. Registrations open 7am on Sunday, or can be made at www.waipafunrun.co.nz.

Youth Awards open

The ceremony is hosted by head students from Cambridge High, St Peter’s and Te Awamutu College. Nominations close on Friday 12 April. Nomination forms are available from secondary schools, Council offices, libraries and at waipadc.govt.nz/ youthawards.

FRIDAY MARCH 8, 2019

Making a message heard We meet Life Unlimited hearing therapist Sue Jennings. Sue Jennings has a message for people who invested in a hearing aid several years ago. This is Hearing Awareness Week, and many of those hearing aid users should be getting them out of the draw. Sue, a hearing therapist with Life Unlimited, says many people who get hearing aids struggle with them initially, and eventually decide to go without. It’s an error - not least because they miss out, but also because when they do pull them out of the draw it’s possible their hearing will have worsened, so the aids won’t be doing the best job. “With hearing aids, the brain has to be retrained to understand what noises are important and what are not. It can take time. If the hearing aids have been left unused for two or three years, we must start from scratch - but it doesn’t necessarily mean new hearing aids”. This is Hearing Awareness Week and Sue is urging people who are not getting the best out of their aids to come and see her. She has the same message for anyone over 50. “They should have checks – I had a client in this week who was encouraged by a family member and couldn’t see what the fuss was about. Unfortunately, I had to give her some bad news. The good news, though, is that aids will restore much of what she is now missing out on.” Sue says many people with hearing loss are oblivious to it. There are common indicators – being told the television is far too loud is a primary one. She makes use of a device to amplify sound

for clients and many are shocked at what they are missing out on. As a hearing therapist it is all about offering support to the client and family and educating on the needs of the client to be able to communicate more effectively Many go through life unaware of what they are missing out on – but for others with more severe hearing loss the inability to join in conversations can be isolating and depressing. An estimated 880,000 New Zealanders – one in six people – have a hearing loss including about 300,000 people in the working age group of 20 to 65 years. The theme for the annual Hearing Awareness Week, which ends tomorrow, is “Early Identification and Intervention of hearing loss”. The call to action by the World Health Organization, which recently launched a new app called hearWHO available on both the Apple and Google Play stores, is “Check your Hearing”. Where industrial noise was once the major problem today it can be music – played at high volumes through the earbuds everyone with a smart phone owns. New research underlines the importance of having hearing checks as they show a correlation between dementia and hearing loss. The service provided by Life Unlimited, and funded by the Ministry of Health, is independent and includes free hearing assessments, information, hearing screening and support for New Zealand citizens and permanent residents aged 16 years and over. The service does not involve selling hearings aids.

Try these for size… Sue with one of tools of her profession.

Tinnitus, or ringing in the ear, can be aggravated by stress, caffeine and alcohol. “Hearing loss can lead to communication breakdown and result in frustration and isolation,” Sue said. “I work with people to reduce that impact, so they can live well with hearing loss.” That support includes providing information on effective communication strategies and listening devices. Amplified telephones, smoke alarms, television management and personal listening devices could provide additional tools to – or be a possible alternative for – hearing aids for some people. Life Unlimited hearing therapists also

advise on funding criteria and are credentialed assessors on behalf of the Ministry of Health for hearing assistive technology systems, devices that help people with hearing difficulties to communicate with others. Sue also helps clients with lip reading and will even talk to their work colleagues to help them understand the impact of hearing loss. Sue, who lives just out of Cambridge, has been a hearing therapist for 12 years and loves her work because it is so rewarding. Her region covers the Waikato District Health Board area and the free service extends to having Sue speak to community groups. Sue can be reached via Life Unlimited’s freephone number, 0800 008 011.

So it’s all pretty exciting.” Very early plans are in the works to designate part of the C2 area for a new school, with discussions “on the way” between council and the Ministry of Education.

Head students on right track By Sophie Iremonger

Cambridge High School’s new head boy and girl and their deputies would like to change the face of their school this year, hoping to bring it up to par as a “school of choice” amongst the likes of their St Peter’s counterparts. “We’d like to show that we’re becoming a school of choice, and start making an image for ourselves that we can portray to other schools,” said Ella Higgins, head girl. “And developing our image within the community,” added head boy Matthew McHugh. “What we do in sports, academically, culturally and within the arts.” Joined by deputy head boy Liam Petrie and deputy head girl Charlotte Mitchell, the team is looking at several ways they can make a difference during their final year of school. Whilst they all agree on a general direction in building their profile in the community and amongst other schools, they each have their own projects they’d like to work on too. “For me it’s careers

Cambridge High School’s head and deputy leaders hope to put the school on the map amongst the best in New Zealand. Pictured from left is deputy head girl Charlotte Mitchell, deputy head boy Liam Petrie, head girl Ella Higgins and head boy Matthew McHugh.

development for students,” said deputy Liam. “I’ve found a lot of students have no idea what they want to do after school, and I think it’s quite important to help facilitate that.” Both Liam and Matthew would also like to develop

a support group for boys, providing leadership and a sense of direction for males in the school. Matthew, a former captain of the first fifteen, also wants to encourage more students to take up sport. Head girl Ella, a volunteer

for Surf Lifesaving, would like to encourage service to community – an effort to help make the school a better place and the students better people. Deputy head girl Charlotte said she has “big shoes to fill” after her mum

Helen Smythe was the CHS head girl in 1990. “I really want to build the repertoire about mental health around the school,” she said, “and get people more civically engaged, building up the political discussion.” As a high school

ambassador for UN Youth, she wants students to realise that “you can actually be a part of the process”. “School has always been like a massive part of my life, so giving back to the school is always something that I wanted to do, and this is an awesome outlet to do it,” she said. All four students believe their new role is a real privilege, and an honour considering the high calibre of other students who applied. “Anyone of them could have got it,” said Ella. With a month of experience under their belts so far, the group say they’re really enjoying the job. “It’s definitely character building,” said Liam. “It’s been really fun,” added Charlotte. Life hasn’t been quite so fun for head boy Matthew, who fractured his fibula on January 20 and has spent the first few weeks of school in an aptly-coloured blue cast, representing the school colours. The dedicated head boy won’t even let people sign it, but may opt for a drawing of the school logo.

A Le Quesnoy afternoon The Cambridge Primary School Hall was filled with a French theme for the afternoon on Saturday, when the Cambridge Community Board and Cambridge Le Quesnoy Friendship Association held a special presentation for the public. Those who spoke were part of the Cambridge delegation that attended the centenary commemorations of the liberation of Le Quesnoy in November 2018, sharing photos and insight into their experiences in France. Over 80 people attended to view the snapshot of events that took place during the week-long commemorations. It started with a multimedia presentation by the Cambridge Brass Band, which took part in the Le Quesnoy commemorations, with youth members Levi Winter and Emily Hocking sharing their experiences interspersed by performances from the band. Herb Farrant, founder and general secretary of the New Zealand War Memorial Museum

Trust, then spoke about the dedication ceremony held on November 4 at the museum grounds in Le Quesnoy. November 4 was the centenary day of the liberation of Le Quesnoy. New Zealand Defence Force Brigadier Jon Broadley, also a Cambridge resident, spoke about the ceremony that took place that day and the special involvement of the New Zealand Defence Force. Deputy Mayor of Waipa Grahame Webber, and Steve Tritt, a descendant of one of the Kiwi soldiers killed at Le Quesnoy, were also part of the Cambridge delegation who attended the commemorations. They spoke about the many activities that they took part in during their week in Le Quesnoy. The afternoon concluded with bag piper Bryan Mitchell playing. Cambridge is a sister city to Le Quesnoy, with ties maintained by the Cambridge - Le Quesnoy Friendship Association.

Find this man – bike goes missing By sophie Iremonger

Kim Martinenghi and her son Giorgio often frequent the Sheridan Dairy, but had never seen someone take a bike there until last week.

A Cambridge woman has been left with only her feet as a mode of transport after her bike was taken outside the Sheridan Dairy on February 26. CCTV footage captured the incident on Shakespeare Street, where a man exited a white passenger van, walked briskly toward the bike, grabbed it and without hesitation took off down the street riding it. The van continued driving alongside him, with the bike’s owner Kim Martinenghi chasing them down the street. Kim’s bag and helmet had been attached to the bike, but the man was considerate enough to dump them on the ground. “I never thought this could happen,” said Kim. “To most people Cambridge is a safe place.” Kim said she was extremely grateful to the people who saw the incident and stopped to assist her, taking down the car’s licence plate and helping her to call police as she has limited English. “I’d really like to thank them,” she said. “I never thought I’d call the police. In in China when this happens, nobody wants to call the police or fight back. But here the people are so warm, I needed help and they helped me.” Police said enquiries into the incident were still ongoing. After Kim posted the CCTV footage to the Cambridge Grapevine Facebook page, Angela Leigh commented that her son and his friend had their bikes

taken outside The Warehouse around three weeks prior to the incident. “They were both secure but these muppets cut through the bike locks and took off with them,” she said. “Ironically the car in your photos is identical to the car that was involved in our incident.” Since the incident Kim has had to walk to and from work, venturing out again later to pick up her son from kindergarten. She’s essentially walking from one side of town to the other, from her home near Leamington School to her job in the north western end of the Cambridge CBD. She said she’d love to ride a bike again, but for now for now she’ll stick to walking alongside her son on his trike. “It’s just bad luck really,” she said.

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.

New water park a first for Cambridge By Viv Posselt

An interactive water park recently opened at Leamington Primary School and intended for both school and community use, is a first for Cambridge. The $200,000 facility requires users to fully engage with its various elements. Hands are needed to turn water pumps and direct water through channels and up an Archimedes screw to an even higher set of channels. With sand underfoot, a stylish sun-shade above and rock surrounds that will soon encase a water channel, the landscaped park offers a safe play area for kids keen to get stuck into some creative water play. Soon to be put in place are a bridge, a small wooden ‘wendy’ house and timber boxes to hold buckets and spades, plus other accoutrements of beach-type play. “The great thing about it is that you really have to work with others to make it work,” said Leamington Primary School principal Mike Malcolm, who steered the park’s official unveiling on February 28. Aside from staff and pupils, the opening was attended by representatives from local businesses that have supported the project. All will have their names on a soon-to-be-finished fence that will also carry an illustrated timeline of the park itself. Mike said the idea had evolved during conversations with the school’s Board of Trustees around adding another play area. “We took the kids to spend time at a number of Hamilton playgrounds, then asked them to tell us about their favourite

bits – they kept just coming back to play ideas related to water,” said Mike. “That’s how we ended up with a water park. I saw something similar over there and said this was what we needed. “Putting it together has been a little more complicated than your conventional playground. The wood we’ve used is the same as is used in wine barrels, and some of the stainlesssteel elements of the park had to be imported … one of the tricky parts was bringing in the tonnes of rock we have used. “The water is from our mains – we had to work out where we wanted it to travel and how. It is pumped up, then travels through the channels to a concreted ‘river bed’ from where it flows into a drain,” he added. “That concreted bed will serve a dual purpose of being a great place the kids can splash around in, plus it will clean the sand off their feet as they leave!” Mike said planning the park had been ongoing for at least two years. School fundraising had been bolstered by about $30,000 worth of donations from local businesses. He said the park would be for community use at weekends. “We’ve invested a lot of time and money into it and would like to share it with the community.” Mike thanked those who had made the park possible, including the Leamington School PTA. Others included Chris Ryan Plumbing, J Swap Contractors, Waikato Aggregates, Ricoh, On Site Concrete, Nuwave Technology, Little Sparrows, Printech, Noel Silva Bobcats and Florida Landscaping.

Model maker extraordinaire on festival tour By Viv Posselt

Twelve meticulously crafted model ships and boats made by local man Eric Hill will be on view as part of this month’s Cambridge Autumn Festival. He is among almost 30 local artists or groups who will open their home-based galleries to the public for the festival’s Cambridge Open Studios tour. The vessels he will display include the Avon and the Koheroa – two with historical links to Cambridge and the Waikato River – and the 2.5 metre Heemskerck, one of two of Abel Tasman’s vessels that sailed into New Zealand waters in late 1642. Another model is of the HMS Bounty, the 18th

Century merchant vessel associated with the mutiny involving Captain Bligh and Fletcher Christian. The Heemskerck is his largest and took over four years to complete. It is an extraordinarily detailed scale replica of the ship; photographs Eric sent back to the Dutch museum that furnished him with the plans elicited a positive response. “They were very impressed,” he said. The other hat Eric wears is that of chairperson of the Cambridge Heritage Charitable Trust. In that capacity, he is helping drive a multi-million-dollar upgrade to the Cambridge Museum; it is also a role that fits well with the melding of history and model-making he describes as a particularly satisfying aspect of his hobby. Eric started model-making in earnest about 15 years ago, applying technical and drafting skills he had acquired at school. He soon found it was boats that captured his real interest, more so Eric Hill and the largest of his models – Abel Tasman’s vessel, the Heemskerck. those of historical significance.

Kids to rock n roll at nationals

A team of eight young dancers from the Cambridge Cruisers Rock n Roll Club will compete in the Rock n Roll Junior Nationals in Invercargill next month. It will be the first time the club competes at the competition, and the first time that all but one of them has competed at such a high level. “It’s a fabulous opportunity for the children,” said Colleen Ryan, vice president of Cambridge Cruisers Rock n Roll. “The journey started in November with regular practices throughout the summer and that has really started to pay off now with everything coming together well.” Six of the Cambridge dancers will

compete as a “top team”, performing a choreographed routine to the well known tune In Your Arms by Elvis Presley. Two same-sex couples and a junior samesex couple from the Cambridge club will also compete in the high-volume category which caters for the overwhelming number of girls that participate in dance. “And we’re lucky enough to have one novice couple taking the floor which is solely for couples who have never danced at a Nationals before,” said Ryan. The club has been fundraising to cover the cost to attend the event, and parents have ensured the young dancers are practiced and prepared for the big day.

Juniors from the Cambridge Cruisers Rock n Roll Club will compete at the Rock n Roll Junior Nationals next month. Pictured is, from left, front row: Katie Bowler, 10, Camille Pivott, 10, Molly White, 7, Tristan Pivott, 11. Middle row, Abbie Crow, 17, Zarah Higgins, 12, Ashleigh Hjorth and Zarah Armstrong, 17. Back row: some of the parents and coaches, Anna Hastings, Colleen Ryan, Jared Pivott, Hilary Crow, Sue Keating and Brad White.

“Without the parents it just wouldn’t happen,” said Ryan. “We’re delighted to be able to visit and support and help make the Nationals a huge success as we grow rock n roll within our communities. Of course all the dancers will be dressed up in the era of the 1950’s and it’s such a wonderful sight to see when they’re all about to take the floor and entertain the

crowd.” The Club wished to thank all who have supported the fundraising effort. The Rock n Roll Junior Nationals will take place April 19 – 21. A demo will be performed by club members on Thursday 11 April at the club rooms on Hall St. Keep an eye out on the Facebook page for more.

Star piano quartet in Cambridge

Cambridge is fortunate to be able to host some of New Zealand’s world class musicians from time to time, and the Villani Piano Quartet is one of them.

Racer aims for top step

“Want a Champagne Bathroom on a Beer Budget?”

Cambridge racer Sam Collins

Cambridge racer Sam Collins is hoping for some strong results when round four of the Tradezone GTRNZ Championship gets underway at Hampton Downs this weekend. TradeZone GTRNZ is the home to some of New Zealand’s fastest race cars, with almost no rules and anything goes - meaning there are no power limits, with cars powered by V8s, 6s, 4s, turbos, and rotary engines. Collins, 32, is only in his first season of GTRNZ in his team’s radical looking Ford Mustang which was built by Hamilton race car builder Mitchell Race Xtreme. “My only car racing experience is this year’s GTRNZ Championship which has been three rounds and one one-hour endurance race which I did with my father Paul. Before that I had raced motocross most of my life,” says Collins. Despite the inexperience in car racing, Collins says he and his small family-run team are pleased with their performance. “We have had a few teething problems with the new car but running in the top group at all rounds. We are still learning as

we go to each round. “Manfeild a few weeks ago was one of our best rounds with a win and a second place. We also qualified second.” Complicating his race weekend at Manfeild, Sam had to miss part of the race weekend due to his brothers wedding. “I missed a race due to my brother’s wedding on Saturday afternoon and had to fly out to Auckland and then back to race the Sunday where I got a second then won the last race!” With two rounds to go, Collins is sitting fourth overall in the GT2 Class of the GTRNZ Championship, and believes that getting to the top step is within reach. “We are running fourth overall and with two rounds to run if we consistently run in top two we should be able to reach the top step.” The Collins & Sons Earth Moving and Cartage Ford Mustang is supported by Metalco Recyclers, Modern Transport, Aegis Oil, Waitomo Fuel, Tyre Traders, Wicked Campers and Heathcotes.

Record fine for farmer after third prosecution

A Cambridge farming company has received the largest total fine ever imposed in the Waikato region for illegal dairy effluent discharges into the environment, since the RMA came into force in 1991. The company, Pollock Farms (2011) Limited, which operates a dairy farm on Victoria Road, and one of its directors, Dawson Craig Pollock, have each been convicted of eight charges under the Resource Management Act, and been fined a total of $131,840. Mr Pollock had previously been the subject of prosecution for similar breaches of the RMA in 1993 and 2001. In addition to the fine, the court has imposed an Enforcement Order on the company to ensure appropriate effluent management infrastructure is installed. The convictions, fines and enforcement order were imposed by Judge Melanie Harland in the Hamilton District Court this week, following guilty pleas by the company

and director. The case was taken by Waikato Regional Council following a series of inspections where over-irrigation of effluent was evident. Effluent from an underpass to an adjoining property was also being pumped directly to land in large volumes. Both practices pose a real risk of effluent contaminating groundwater. Similar breaches had been found by the council during 2016 and 2017. Formal warnings and infringement notices were issued and an abatement notice served on the farming company in September 2016 to cease the illegal practices. “This farm has posed an ongoing risk to the environment for years. There has been woefully inadequate infrastructure on this farm since Mr Pollock first appeared before the courts in the 1990s. Quite simply, he has ignored all of the actions taken by the council to date, as well as all of the messaging from

Council staff found an effluent sump overflowing at the Victoria Road property.

his own industry to improve,” said council investigations manager, Patrick Lynch. “We have established that from 2010 to 2016 the company purchased a neighbouring farm and virtually doubled their herd size, from 380 to 700 cows, with no expansion of dairy effluent infrastructure.” “Every dairy farm should have sufficient storage to be able to safely store effluent through wet and busy periods. The idea being

that when weather and circumstances allow, this effluent can then be irrigated to land as fertiliser in an environmentally safe, and economically prudent, manner. “On this particular farm the storage was only sufficient for a single day. It should have been up to 100 times larger than that. With virtually no storage, this means there will have been regular and frequent unlawful discharges of dairy effluent into the environment for years.”

Court order for “reckless” earthworks

A Cambridge landscape supplies company has been convicted and fined $85,000 for carrying out illegal earthworks, damaging and contaminating a stream and breaching an abatement notice. Devon Park Limited was found to have breached the Resource Management Act last month after a member of the public notified Waikato Regional Council in May 2017 about extensive earthworks on the site. Council identified the earthworks had taken place in a high-risk erosion area and had caused damage and diversion to a stream. It also identified a very large mound of horse stable waste that had been collected by the company and placed on the hilly site for resale, where a steady stream of leachate was observed running downhill into the nearby waterway, which connected to the Waitakaruru Stream. The Te Miro company was sentenced on February 18 by Judge Melanie Harland in the Hamilton District Court, agreeing to a court order prohibiting any further unlawful activity, and requiring an engineer to provide a remediation plan for the Te Miro property. Judge Harland regarded the behaviour as “extremely reckless”, stating whilst passing A Waikato Regional Council staff member sentence that “the impact on the property was measures the extent of the stream damage caused at the site near Te Miro. profound”.

Heather Moore, general manager of Volunteering Waikato, says the new website also allows not-for-profit organisations to list roles they need voluntary assistance with. “This new system makes it so much easier for either prospective volunteers or organisations to go on to the site and either search for roles that meet their criteria, or present details of the work they have available,” she said. “We have 30 different categories of voluntary work

from across the region, and there are about 350 not-forprofit organisations listing positions. Some of these organisations are substantial, such as schools, health boards or local government offices, but many others are small and are entirely run by volunteers. All of them are looking for people who may want to make a useful contribution in their local community.” Heather said the new website, www.volunteeringwaikato. org.nz allows volunteers to search for a role by town or time or category. “For instance, someone can seek a driving role in Huntly, or Tokoroa, or Te Kuiti, and simply visit the site, seek the type of role, the location and the time available to do the job, and the results are immediately available,” she says. “Some people may be interested in being involved in one-off or short-term events at certain times, while others may prefer more ongoing roles, anywhere from a couple of hours to 10 or 15 hours a week. “People volunteer for a wide variety of reasons – some want to make connections in their community, or they may be new to the area and want to meet people, they may be seeking work experience, want to make a positive contribution, or want to make a change for the better in their community. “Last year was yet another

record year for us, and we had more than 3800 volunteers who applied for more than 4800 positions across the region. Collectively, that equates to tens of thousands of volunteer hours of work, and it all makes a huge difference for the better in so many ways,” says Heather. She says volunteering is thriving throughout the Waikato, and the new website will help make it easier and quicker for people to find the right opportunity to volunteer.

She noted also that the entire website and online services, which took hundreds of hours to build, was created entirely voluntarily. “There is always an alternative to going on the website for those who prefer to talk to someone in person,” she says. “People are welcome to call in to our Hamilton offices on the corner of Caro and Anglesea Streets in the city centre, or phone us on 07 8393191.”

Karapiro student council

Karapiro School is now full steam ahead into the year with its 2019 student council elected. Pictured with their school principal are the student councillors, from left, back row, Lola Mills, Hunter Vulgar, Florence Nelson, Emily Graham, Alastair Coutts, and (front row) Obi Nelson, Tina-Maree Thatcher (principal), Olive Mills and Francesca Odgers. Already the council has met with their principal to discuss the school charter, the planned upgrade to two classrooms and how the school can support a kindergarten and school in the Pacific Islands. “The student council is a great way to connect with the voice of our students and to capture and use the creative ideas that our kids come up with,” Tina-Maree Thatcher said.

TICKET GIVEAWAY: NZSO Acclaimed pianist Joyce Yang will perform with the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra in Hamilton next month. The Grammy Award nominee will perform Johannes Brahms’ grandious and exciting Piano Concerto No. 1 with the national orchestra, as part of a tour around the country which stops at Claudelands Arena on April 12. Yang will perform as a soloist during the Enigma show, part of NZSO Music Director Edo de Waart’s Masterworks series. It will also feature Edward Elgar’s famous Enigma Variations and Richard Strauss’ haunting Serenade for Winds performed by the NZSO. Yang’s solo piece, which Brahms wrote in 1858 while in his early 20s, was not well received at the time but has become one of the best-loved and most frequently performed piano concertos in the world. Tickets to Enigma are available at ticketek.co.nz. Cambridge News has two tickets to give away to the Hamilton show, which kicks off at 7.30pm on Friday, April 12. Just send your full name and phone number to sophie@cambridgenews.nz no later than 9am, Tuesday March 12.

BOOK GIVEAWAY Fearless

by CHLOE PHILLIPS-HARRIS The real-life adventures of a young New Zealand woman pushing the limits, trusting her instincts and live her life off the beaten path. Suffering through searing pain and delirious illness in frigid, makeshift conditions, Chloe PhillipsHarris summoned every ounce of determination to brave the world's most gruelling horse race – the Mongol Derby. This 1000-kilometre endurance race across the wild steppes, desert and mountains of Mongolia – a competition with no marked course, no support team, that requires riders to switch horses every 40 km – saw almost half the competitors drop out along the way, but Chloe persevered. Fearless recounts Chloe's childhood growing up on a run-down farm in a remote corner of Northland, with the odds stacked against her, and shares her life-long dedication to animals that has led her to train wild stallions and help save neglected working animals, travelling to some of the most remote and diverse places on the planet, and ultimately the challenge of the Mongol Derby. To go in the draw for a copy of Fearless email your name and phone number to admin@cambridgenews. nz with FEARLESS in the subject line. FEARLESS by Chloe Phillips-Harris NZ RRP $39.99

FRIDAY MARCH 8, 2019

Marsh runner upsets in New Zealand Derby Cambridge trainer Stephen Marsh picked up his maiden Gr.1 New Zealand Derby (2400m) title at Ellerslie on Saturday but not with the horse that many felt would provide that honour. Marsh saddled up two runners in the Vodafone sponsored contest with punters favouring Gr.2 Avondale Guineas (2100m) placegetter Vernanme as his main winning chance. That overlooked the credentials of stablemate Crown Prosecutor who had disappointed in his previous two runs since winning the Gr.3 Wellington Stakes (1600m) back in November. In a muddling run affair that saw several of the fancied contenders, including favourite Surely Sacred, settle well off the pace, Crown Prosecutor and rider Craig Grylls took advantage of a perfect run in the trail throughout to spring a major upset. Grylls guided the Medaglia D’Oro gelding into the clear

at the 300m mark and dashed to the front to join Te Akau Racing representative, In A Twinkling. The pair set down to a fierce battle over the closing stages that went in favour of Crown Prosecutor who closed at a princely $105 on the tote. Grylls was struggling to take it all in as he made his way back to the Ellerslie birdcage. “Emotions are pretty high,” he said. “He had won a stakes race before, but his form wasn’t the best coming in. “He’s been a little off the boil, but Stephen and his team have done a great job and I couldn’t believe it. “The plan was to go forward but he was green down the straight the first time as he tried to duck out a couple of times. “He was good when he got a bit of cover and they didn’t go overly hard. “Turning in he travelled up underneath me then he just kept grinding away and fought it out to the line.”

Marsh, who emulated his father Bruce who took out the 2000 edition of the event with Hail, was trying hard to keep his emotions in check as he accepted congratulations after the race. “It just feels outstanding,” he said. “I know he was one of the roughies of the race and we know how hard it is to even have a horse in the Derby. “I don’t usually get given colts to train and we have, so this is the race you want to win as it’s the best race on the calendar. “I’m just rapt, I’m blown away.” Despite the outside odds for his charge, Marsh did have an inkling he could prove competitive in an even line-up. “We had him hard fit ready and I said to Craig to go forward as he can out-tough them,” Marsh said. “Nothing had gone right for us last start and he was a stakes winner. “He (Grylls) rode him perfectly as they went hard and he sat in behind them, so it was a great win.”

Trash n Treasure March date changed

For the first time in over 20 years, the Cambridge Lions Trash n Treasure market will not be held on the second Sunday of the month. Just for the month of March, the market will be moved from the 10th to the 17th, due to a road closure for the Waipa Fun Run. The two events have coexisted since the fun run began in 2012, but this year the main street will have to be closed. It follows a call by police for a stricter traffic management plan, with more marshals required on the ground during the running and walking event. The Cambridge Lions said they hoped to work with police and organisers in future so that the two events can co-exist, but for this year the market will run on the third Sunday

of the month instead. Everything will go back to normal next month, with the following Trash n Treasure taking place on April 14. The monthly Cambridge Lions Trash n Treasure market began in 1998. It has grown to house over 200 stalls from around the upper North Island, and is one of the big contributors in the Cambridge Lions’ annual fundraising efforts – along with the twice weekly Lions Shed and the Lions food caravan. It all goes towards a total of over $160,000 donated back into the community each year by the Cambridge Lions. Last year the Cambridge Lions were announced as the largest club in New Zealand with 87 members.

Victory at junior rowing regatta

St Peter’s rowers had a great weekend of racing at the AON Junior Regatta, securing a place in 35 A finals and winning 12 of them. Rua O’Reilly and Toby Robinson were the winners in the under 15 boys double final, and were followed by two other St Peter’s boats for second and third. Beckie Leigh and Jason Nel showed their form in the sculling events, winning their respective quad, double and single races. Both of the school’s U18 boys and girls eights made their A finals, with the girls piping Waikato Dio for the win. This included Amelia Barrell, Holly Williams, Beckie Leigh, Clare Milne, Atlanta Bruce, Terri Wyatt, Ella Thomson, Madi Fuller and Teagan Carvell.

Swimmers in sync

The St Peter’s School Swimming Sports saw several records broken this year. Thornton won the event overall on house points and Chandler (pictured) won the highly-anticipated synchronised swimming.

Champions found in Central Bowling fours

The Central Bowling Club Cambridge held their Fours Championships last weekend for both men and ladies in absolutely beautiful weather. Like the weather the bowls were of a very high standard and the teams fighting out both finals had to be right on their game as no quarter was given. However, game of the day was the ladies fours final of fifteen ends. After eight ends the scores were even at nine all, but with lead Mary Wishart paving the way Glenys Carter’s team were able to forge ahead to lead 15 to 11 at the 13th end. Bronnie McGowan’s team, not to be denied, hung in to the

end but finally lost by 16 points to 12. Well done Glenys and your team of Maryanne, Hilary and Mary. In the men’s fours final Scotty’s (Alan Buchanan) team, skipped by Jim Watkinson, proved too strong for a valiant effort from team Drinnan. However team Drinnan were still in the game being only down by nine points to seven on the 11th end. But Laurie Roycroft playing at two, placing his shots as directed helped team Scotty take the ascendancy and they went on to win by 15 points to eight. What a great weekend of bowls in Cambridge that was well supported by many spectators.

Finding the right boarding school for your child

What sets a boarding school apart? Although students have different needs, a good academic programme is usually the base line when searching for a school. However, other factors can come into play such as extracurricular activities, special courses, and distance between home and school. Nothing can beat due diligence when choosing the best school for your child. Do your homework. Composing a check-list of must-haves and prioritising them may help with

the decision process. Check the performance record of the school, teachers' credentials, and courses on offer. Is the school well equipped to help your child develop into their best self? Talk to faculty, admin, students and other parents. Talking to parents of current students often helps families get an authentic picture of the care students and families can expect as part of an academic community. This is particularly important in terms of students living away from home. Investigate how peer

collaboration is valued and how social needs are addressed. Students living at boarding schools thrive in environments that provide for academic success as well as social and extracurricular experiences. Finding out about student life is essential. Look for signs that a school focuses on the process of learning, not just on the outcomes. Learn as much as you can about the broader learning environment. School websites and ERO reports can help shape

your decision. Consult your child and encourage their input. After all, it's their future success and happiness that is being decided. Sit down with them and discuss potential schools. Compile a short list. Once you've narrowed down the options, visit the schools. A campus visit and an interview are opportunities to really assess whether the school is a good fit for your child and their requirements. Every school and every student is unique. Finding the right match is critical.

FRIDAY MARCH 8, 2019

with Jan Bilton

Last year my cousin was advised to lose weight. She could not understand why she had a problem as she never ate a thing before 10:30am. And that was her problem. If she’d had a substantial breakfast she wouldn’t have craved that large double chocolate muffin with her mid-morning coffee — followed shortly after by a high carb lunch. Sweet things curb your appetite — but only briefly. Eating breakfast can help you lose weight, improve your mood and even help ward off disease. Breakfast ‘breaks the fast’ from the hours you sleep and skipping this important meal can cause a chain of harmful reactions in the body. Health professionals have found that generally, people who eat breakfast every day are thinner than those who don’t. This could be because eating foods with protein and fibre in the morning keeps your appetite in check all day. Studies have linked eating breakfast to good health, including better memory and concentration, lower levels of ‘bad’ LDL cholesterol, and lowering the chances of getting diabetes and heart disease. Breakfast kick-starts your metabolism and provides energy to get things done as well as helping you to focus. It’s the most important meal of the day.

CHEESY CROISSANT BAKE Ideal for brunch, this tempting delight should be served with slices of fresh melon or kiwifruit, or with strawberries. It can be prepared and refrigerated overnight before baking. 5 (250g) croissants, split in half lengthwise 2 shallots, diced 1 tablespoon olive oil 2 teaspoons finely chopped sage 4 large eggs 1 1/4 cups milk 1 cup each: cream, grated Swiss cheese salt and pepper to taste Preheat the oven to 190°C. Place the split croissants on an oven tray. Bake for about 10 minutes, turning once, until crisp and golden brown. Cool a little then tear into bite-size pieces. Sauté the shallots in the olive oil, until softened. Stir in the sage. Whisk the eggs, milk, cream, half the cheese, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Place the croissants and shallots in a lightly greased 20cm x 18cm baking dish. Pour the egg mixture over the top and press the croissants down to fully immerse them in the liquid. Cover with plastic film. Refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Sprinkle the croissant mixture with the remaining cheese. Bake for 40-45 minutes, until puffed, golden and set. Serves 6.

Cheesy croissant bake

GRILLED PARMESAN TOMATOES A taste treat for weekday breakfasts. 8 medium tomatoes, halved crosswise salt and pepper to taste 1/2-3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese sprigs thyme Preheat the oven to 200°C fan-grill. Place the tomatoes in a small oiled roasting dish, cut-side up. Season, sprinkle with parmesan and dot with thyme. Fan-grill until the tomatoes are hot and the parmesan melted and golden. Serve with whole-grain toast. Serves 2-4.

INDIAN EGGS IN PITA BREAD If the tomatoes are very pulpy, squeeze out some of the juice. The pita pockets can be lined with lettuce. 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 small onion, diced 1 clove garlic, crushed 1-2 teaspoons curry powder 4 large tomatoes, chopped 5 large eggs, lightly beaten salt and pepper to taste 2-3 tablespoons chopped parsley 4 small pita pockets, lightly toasted and halved Heat the oil on medium in a non-stick frying pan. Sauté the onion, until softened. Add the garlic, curry powder and tomatoes and cook until the tomatoes are soft. Whisk the eggs and seasonings then pour into the pan. Stir slowly — as with scrambling eggs — until set. Add the parsley. Spoon into the warm pita pockets. Serves 4.

DEATHS

James Bernard GAMBLE, who passed away peacefully on 25 February 2019. Dad, I want to thank you for being such a precious part of my life. For being the best father I ever knew. For my childhood memories, all the fun times we had. I am so proud of the man you were, so strong, dependable, hard working, honest, loving, loyal and true. A man who possessed all the qualities that are hard to find were abundant in you. I couldn't bring myself to say goodbye to you today, and I knew you would understand. so I will say "I'll see you later, in a beautiful, peaceful place where we will be together again". With all my heart and all that I am, I love you dad. And from your loving son in law Darren, and grandchildren Joshua and Isabel, thankyou for being a loving pop, you touched our hearts and will never be forgotten. May you rest in peace forever more.

JACKSON, Jean Rose – Passed away peacefully on 2.3.2019 in Cambridge. Aged 86. Much loved wife of Pat for 65 years. Mother of Patricia (deceased) and John, Graham and Pam, Grandmother and Great Grandmother. A Private Family Service has been held.

Celia Lashlie, an impassioned, charismatic advocate for equality of opportunity in New Zealand, is mourned and celebrated in this documentary written, directed and produced by former TV current affairs journalist Amanda Millar. When Lashlie received a terminal cancer diagnosis in late 2014, she invited Millar to film the final year of her life. The end came much sooner than expected, but Lashlie’s final participation at the domestic violence camp she helped found, and an intensely moving interview filmed days before she died, provide the heart of this inspiring portrait. One of the biggest successes at this year’s New Zealand International Film Festival, CELIA is returning to the country’s cinemas due to public demand. “Every child is born pure and filled with their own particular brand of magic.” Celia Lashlie.

A highly recommended movie. “Gully Boy” is a film about a 22-year-old boy “Murad” from a ghetto in Mumbai, India. The son of a driver, his parents worked hard to get him educated so that he could have a white collar job. Meanwhile, Murad realizes his calling to be a rapper. Authentic Hip Hop in India is a recent phenomenon and like anywhere else in the world, is rising from the streets. Art is a distant dream for the colonized poor of India and this story is about Murad’s journey from realizing his love for rap and chasing his dream to inadvertently transcending his class. The film showcases street rap from the crevices of Mumbai’s by lanes. His poetry is conscious of the city’s socio-economic fabric and highlights the challenges faced by the disenfranchised youth in the minority population.

ESCAPE ROOM M

A really good watch… you get the feeling Of eeriness and sadism as the ﬁlm gradually proceeds. Francis is so nice, young and innocent…Greta isn’t! Reminiscent of Hand That Rocks the Cradle, Single White Female and Play Misty For Me. DON’T COME ALONE. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. Review:“A cracker of a psychological thriller that is both creepy and scary. Don't watch this ﬁlm alone.”

Softball success leads to European tour

FRIDAY MARCH 8, 2019

By Sophie Iremonger Tyrone West will represent the country at the Joudrs International Boys Cup in Prague in May, an under 18 softball tournament which will attract more countries than the ISC World Series. As his first time on a New Zealand team, it will be his first chance to compete against other national teams too. “I’m quite excited to play the German national team, the Denmark national team and the Czeck U16 team, plus the combined Denmark and Israel U19 team,” Tyrone said. “I’ve never been to Europe either, so that will be a bit different. It will be cool to see the culture in Prague and how different it is to New Zealand.” Tyrone’s selection onto the New Zealand under 18 team came after putting his name down for consideration during the under 18 nationals over the summer break – his fourth time playing in a regional representative team. “I’ve never put my name down before but this year I just thought, why not, and I made it. “I’m quite excited because it’s an experience I’ve never had before, being able to try something new in a new country.” The team will train under Richard Allison, former coach to the New Zealand senior men’s softball team, and Lawrence Allen, the Austrian women’s head coach and a former Czech Republic men’s technical coach. It’s an opportunity Tyrone hopes to make the most of. “Each coach can offer you different opportunities and things to learn, so I’m really open to new coaches,” he said. As a coach himself at the Tom Voyle Park Sports Club, as well as a player on the club’s college grade and men’s majors teams, Tyrone says one of the best parts of the game is helping others improve so that they can enjoy it more too. “Watching them enjoy the sport that I enjoy is great,” he said. “And being able to teach them all the skills that I’ve learnt. It’s a lot more fun when you have a better understanding of the game and are able to do more in the game. “My goal personally has always been to improve, there’s always that capacity to be better than what I already am. Striving to improve but still remaining humble.” Tyrone will need to raise five and a half thousand dollars for the trip. He’s already organised a raffle as part of his fundraising efforts, with $200 up for grabs and a $50 fuel voucher for second place. Tickets, which are $10 each, are available through the Tom Voyle Park Sports Club Facebook page.

Tyrone West will trade in his club colours for the New Zealand uniform when he competes at an international under 18 tournament in Prague in May.

The Kevin Herlihy Softball Tournament at Tom Voyle Park on Sunday, February 24 was a massive success, doubling as a fundraiser for Tyrone’s brother Jordan West and fellow club member Daniel de Jong who made it onto national teams for upcoming under 16 and under 14 tournaments in Australia. Eight teams from Waikato, Bay of Plenty and Counties Manukau competed, with a combined Fairfield-Otorohanga team winning first place, followed by the Tom Voyle Park Sports Club team in second.
