Getting protection By Sophie Iremonger

It is the most important thing a parent can do for a child. That’s how Cambridge registered nurse Lyn Schofield views immunisation. Against what medical authorities say are bogus links to Alzheimer’s disease and autism, Kayla Bromwich will take her son Korben in for his 15-month vaccines next month. The vaccines will provide protection against type B influenza, measles, mumps, rubella, chickenpox, and pneumococcal diseases such as meningitis. The Cambridge mum has no doubts about the value of vaccines, particularly with measles in the Waikato. “I’ve been so paranoid...it’s getting very close,” the Cambridge mum said. Measles has been diagnosed in 75 patients in New Zealand this year, including a dozen in the Waikato. Waikato District Health Board’s medical officer of health Dr Richard Hoskins said the disease had not been found in Cambridge but had spread as far south as Kihikihi. The outbreak has mostly affected people aged 10-30. Continued on page 3

A team of eight Cambridge High School artists have brightened up the boards protecting the Stirling Sports shop frontage on Victoria Street. The clever students ranging from Year 9 to 13 created a depiction of the Stirling Sports logo on a superhero shield “busting through the wall”, as their teacher in charge Zane Holton explained, “a reference to rising again after the ramraid”. The store was ramraided on March 24, the fifth time since it opened in July 2016, leaving the shopfront boarded up for 10 weeks while new windows were made. Having formed an art mural club at the school this year, which aims to contribute mural paintings to the community, it was a

timely opportunity for the Cambridge High School students to contribute something to the store frontage. Their Stirling Sports superhero design also features small “think bubbles” depicting different sporting codes. The students involved in the painting

project on Saturday morning included Jackson Tregurtha, Berengere LeMercier, Sophie Laurent, Phoebe Smith, Paige Connon, Orla Anderson-Scott, Ava Stretton and Josie Palmer. The wooden boards are due to remain in place until early June.

Letter to the editor

Prison sentences

It seems that in New Zealand, life imprisonment does not mean being locked away for the duration of your life. For some reason, criminals who murder others might be paroled early. Home detention is still a punishment that judges are meting out. What sort of punishment is that? Why do murderers seem adamant that their rights are important? When a murder has been committed the perpetrator’s rights should be taken away and the murderer will have to earn his rights back over time. More and more murders are being committed in New Zealand. The government has made gun ownership more difficult, and this is a move in the right direction to possibly reduce the murder rate. Michael Cole

Lest we forget this Anzac Day

This day of remembrance is one of the highest moments in our history, remembering those who fought for our freedom, our rights, and our country. Although they may not have won it is important to reflect on the many different meanings each and every person holds about war. Whether you wear the medals your grandparents and great grandparents won during war, or a poppy, it is in these moments that we are united as one, as we remember those who have fallen. Lest we forget. Bill McMillan, on behalf of the Cambridge RSA and Anzac Armistice Committee

Don’t wait, put your bins out Waipa District Council is reminding residents to put recycling out for collection over the Easter and Anzac holidays. Council contractor Metallic Sweeping Ltd is now collecting recycling on public holidays which means there is no one-day delay. If recycling is normally collected on a Friday, Monday or Thursday then it will still be collected on Good Friday, Easter Monday and Anzac Day. The improvement is part of the upcoming changes to Council’s recycling service which will see the blue recycling crates replaced by two purpose-built wheelie bins for each household; a 140-litre bin for glass (collected monthly) and a 240-litre bin for plastic, tins, cans, paper and cardboard (collected fortnightly). Council’s group manager – service delivery Barry Bergin said the change was positive for both the community and truck drivers.

“Continuing the recycling collection service throughout public holidays means drivers get their weekend off to enjoy with their families like everyone else and also means there is a consistent service for the community and no confusion. “Currently our drivers spend their weekends catching up after a public holiday and we think it’s safer to give them a proper rest. Anything we can do to reduce driver fatigue is important while continuing to provide the best service we can for the Waipā district.” The public holiday recycling collection will have no impact on rubbish collection in Waipā district. Rubbish collection continues to be a private service and is not managed by Council. Anyone having issues with their rubbish collection should contact their private provider. For more information about the new recycling service and to check your collection dates visit waipadc.govt.nz/recycling.

Churches reminding why we celebrate Easter By Sophie Iremonger

Many Cambridge residents will be enjoying some extra time off this long

weekend as the much-anticipated Easter weekend arrives. Whether you’re enjoying a final beach getaway for the summer, or simply staying

Bonnie and Clyde sure to excite

at home to hunt for chocolate eggs with the kids, it’s important to remember the meaning of Easter this long weekend – new life – say members of Cambridge’s Christian community. “Easter is largely about Hope,” said Jeff Parker, Senior Pastor at Elim Church. “Our creator doesn’t give up on us regardless of where we are at, but provides a way in Jesus for us to be restored to relationship with Him and restored to an incredible Hope for our future. “This is the Hope we celebrate at Easter.” Murray Smith, Senior Leader at Bridges Church, said Easter was essentially about, “The cross, an empty tomb and a living saviour who is the same today as He was when He walked the earth, putting God on display so we can really know what He is like.” Malcolm French, Vicar of St Andrews Church, said what happened during the first

Easter was “more than just ‘a conjuring trick with bones’,” he said. “It was nothing less than the defeat of death and of the powers of darkness. Everything changed, ‘heaven is wedded to earth and we are reconciled with God’.” By definition, Easter celebrates the resurrection of Jesus from the dead, following his crucifixion by the Romans at Calvary. Good Friday commemorates his death by crucifixion, and Easter Sunday marks his resurrection. Eggs have long been an ancient symbol of new life and rebirth, hence why Easter eggs are gifted on Sunday. Traditionally dyed chicken eggs were used, but this custom has since developed into the more preferred form of chocolate eggs. This Sunday evening, a combinedchurches Easter celebration will be held at the Cambridge Town Hall from 7pm. All members of the community are most welcome to attend.

Liberty Jack and Connor Kelly-Gage will star as Bonnie and Clyde in the upcoming St Peter’s musical.

By Sophie Iremonger

The story of the infamous outlaw couple Bonnie and Clyde will be performed on the St Peter’s stage next month. Bonnie & Clyde the musical will feature Year 13 student Liberty Jack as the leading lady Bonnie, and Year 11 student Connor Kelly-Gage as the gangster man himself, Clyde. It’s quite the leap for Connor, who hasn’t starred in a school production before, let alone in a lead role. But the 15-year-old was keen as mustard to jump in the deep end, after the school’s head boy Jonathan Khalil, a prefect in his boarding house, convinced him to audition. “He just really wanted me to audition, so I did,” Connor explained. “He’s been a really great help with learning lines.” Khalil will also star in the show as Clyde’s brother Buck. Having only ever performed in a school kapahaka, the Turangi native said the journey to the stage had been quite the experience, but heaps of fun. “It’s something that I’m absolutely not used to, learning lines, and reaching higher notes, I’ve never really had to do that,” he said. But memorizing lines with the help of Jonathan Khalil, and many hours

practicing with Liberty, have helped him perfect the art, Connor said. Liberty on the other hand has been starring in musicals for much of her life. She moved to New Zealand from London in 2015, getting involved in the school’s performing arts department from day-one. “Working with the staff and all the cast has been really great,” she said of her fifth and final St Peter’s school production. “During the production process we get quite close because we’re all together so much, so you make a lot of new friends and get to know people, that’s probably the best part,” she said. 68 students are performing in this year’s St Peter’s production. Combined with those working backstage on lighting, sound, hair and makeup, just over a hundred students are involved – roughly ten percent of the whole school. The production runs May 3 – 9 with five evening performances and a 2pm matinee on Sunday, May 5. Tickets are available through iTicket. Cambridge News has two tickets to give away to the show. Just send your full name and contact number, with the subject line “Bonnie and Clyde”, to: sophie@cambridgenews.nz. Entries must be received no later than 9am, Tuesday April 23.

Many children around Cambridge will be hunting for Easter eggs this Easter Sunday morning. Adam Saunders (pictured) was delighted to find a chocolate egg during an Easter egg hunt at Cambridge Kindergarten in 2017.

Hundreds race through Leamington in 100k flyer

Over 1500 cyclists raced a 100km circuit around Maungatautari on the weekend, starting and finishing at Mighty River Domain in Karapiro. The event, formerly known as the Rotorua to Taupo 100K Flyer for the last two decades, moved to Cambridge for the first time this year and took on a new name: the Karapiro 100K Flyer. Cambridge resident Stuart McKenzie took part in the event on Saturday, overcoming a technical difficulty to finish the gruelling 100km circuit – an achievement in itself for someone who had never taken part in a cycle race of such length. The hardest part began around one third of the way into the course, when his gears ran out of power. “Fortunately the gear I was stuck allowed me to ride just over 30kph on the flats and grind the hills, passing riders to the tops only to have them overtake me on the way down,” Stuart explained. If that wasn’t enough, a fellow cyclist crashing about five metres in front of him caused an inevitable collision, Stuart coming away with just a few surface grazes and continuing to the finish. “With all that I was able to achieve a 30kph average, which I thought was actually very good considering the circumstances!” In doing the event Stuart also raised funds for Hospice Waikato. More than 1500 cyclists raced around Maungatautari Mountain on Saturday, riding through Leamington to finish on Maungatautari Rd.

Community board wins once again The Cambridge Community Board has done it again – winning another top accolade. The organisation won top honours at the Sister Cities New Zealand Awards in Palmerston North on March 23, winning both the Supreme Award and the award for community organisations. And now they’ve also won two more awards, at the 2019 National Community Board Conference held in New Plymouth last week, coming away with the Best Project Award for the category “enhancing communities” as well as winning the overall Supreme Award. The achievements were based on the board’s work with Cambridge’s sister

city Le Quesnoy, namely in organising Armistice events in 2018. Cambridge Community Board chairperson Mike Pettit accepted the award on behalf of the board, acknowledging the work by the board’s Armistice/Remembrance Day Committee, along with the Cambridge Chamber of Commerce, in organising Armistice in Cambridge. “I was very proud of the impact the events had on engaging people not just from Cambridge but throughout New Zealand,” Mike said. “Included in the nomination was the Civic Service, Armistice events at Lake Karapiro, the family day outside the town

hall, light show and the delegation to Le Quesnoy. “Combined, this stood out against all other entries and as town we should celebrate our success off the back of planned and hard work.” He credited the contributions of Cambridge residents, too, in participating and supporting the events. “We simply received top accolades on behalf of our great town,” he said. “The Cambridge Community Board, like so many of the groups that make up Cambridge, have a can-do, ‘glass half full’ positive attitude. It is this mentality that helps people want to live in, contribute to Mike Pettit (right) and John Bishop with the Cambridge Community Board’s two latest awards. and be part of Cambridge.”

Vaccines a valuable step forward Continued from page 1

Hoskins confirmed that other diseases for which vaccines exist, including mumps, whooping cough (pertussis) and pneumococcal disease had been found in the

province this year. World Immunisation Week, a World Health Organisatin (WHO) initiative, starts on April 24 and New Zealand’s immunisation week starts on April 29.

Rotary helps wipe out polio Ray Milner said he remembers what life was like before a lot of today’s vaccines were available. “When I was younger there were a lot of childhood diseases which we almost don’t even hear about now,” said Milner, President of Rotary Cambridge.

Ray Milner.

The organisation has contributed tens of thousands of dollars towards Rotary International’s $1.9B efforts over the last 30 years to eradicate polio worldwide. Only three cases are known in the world at present. “We’ve been ‘that close’ for years,” said Ray, pinching his finger and thumb. “I guess everybody is looking forward to the day that polio is eliminated, and all those vast resources can be used for something else in the world.” He had his own children immunised “because I guess my generation, and a lot of people older than me, will remember what childhood illnesses were like. So when we had our children, if there was something that would prevent them from being ill, then generally we would subscribe to that. It’s the way the world makes progress. “We all use technology because it enhances and improves our lives, and vaccines and medicines are no different. “My view is we should use vaccines, to improve the quality of life for not only ourselves but our children and their children. Eliminating those diseases and improving life for everybody is really important.”

Kayla Bromwich said the worldwide anti-vaccination movement made her angry, especially after she saw sick babies first-hand in hospital after her son was born premature. “I just don’t see why they wouldn’t want to vaccinate,” she said. “It’s not just our own children we’re trying to protect, its everyone. “Don’t just do it for your own children, do it for the babies that can’t fight it, who haven’t had their immunisations,” she said. “Immunisation is the single most important thing you can do for young children,” said Lyn Schofield, a registered nurse in Cambridge. She knows what a difference it can make her own baby suffered from meningococcal disease before the meningitis vaccine was approved in 2005. “Because people are now immunising, we’re not seeing the diseases that used to kill children,” she said. “People forget immunisation is probably the most medically changing aspect to people’s health. We’ve eradicated diseases like small pox, which is part of the childhood vaccine programme. “Having had the horrors of nursing my own child at nine weeks old with a form of meningitis that we now have a vaccine for, it makes it much easier to vaccinate.” Her baby recovered from the disease. Schofield said the four immunisation injections babies receive at 15 months – which includes the measles vaccine – are well worth it, even if they hurt a little. “Pain is pain, they don’t remember it individually, whether it is four or two injections,” she said. “We’re just giving the body the opportunity to recognise a shape, because

every ‘bug’ has a shape,” she explained. “Immunisation is a very, very important safety measure, as important as putting them in a car seat.” A link between autism and vaccinations has been widely discussed since the 1990s, with Measles-Mumps-Rubella (MMR) and mercury (in the form of thimerosal) the primary areas of concern. Much of the controversy around MMR vaccine and autism followed the work of Andrew Wakefield and colleagues in 1998, published in the medical journal The Lancet. His work was retracted by in 2004 following the findings of scientific and ethical flaws. Wakefield was widely discredited and struck off the UK medical register. This year the findings of a nationwide, 10year study in Denmark of more than 657,000 children concluded the MMR vaccination did not increase the risk for autism or trigger autism in susceptible children. Despite anti-vaccination claims being comprehensively debunked, believers have continued to rally behind their cause. Just last week a Hamilton a city councillor was in the news for posting a flyer linking flu vaccines to Alzheimer’s disease, and in New York mayor Bill de Basio responded to an outbreak of measles by warning those who refuse to vaccinate that they will be fined. During World Immunization Week, the World Health Organisation highlights the value of vaccines, as well as increasing investment into immunisation progress, through the “Protected Together: Vaccines Work” campaign. There are still 20 million unvaccinated and under-vaccinated children in the world.

Organisers will hold two workshops on April 30, at 12.30pm and 5.30pm, to break down the entry process into “manageable, bite-size chunks”. “The workshops support getting entries started and there is plenty of support throughout the process,” Bouzaid explained. “It’s just a matter of deciding on the category to enter and making the commitment. There is always merit to working on your business rather than in it!” To find out more about the 2019 Waipa Networks Business Awards, visit www. waipabusinessawards.co.nz.

Le Quesnoy was under occupation for most of the First World War, until November 4, 1918 when it was

liberated by New Zealand soldiers. “The people of Le Quesnoy have never forgotten this bravery,” said Upston. “Streets are named after New Zealand places, there is a New Zealand memorial and a primary school bears the name of a New Zealand soldier.” “Our region has a strong military history and contributed many men and women towards the efforts of our armed forces.” “In my absence, members from the Youth Advisory Board will be laying a wreath at both the Taupo and Cambridge civic ceremonies.” “Today there are many men and women from not only our region, but all over New Zealand, who are playing a part in protecting peace, security and democracy. “I would like to thank them and give WAIPA NETWORKS ARE my thoughts to the family members of YOUR LOCAL ELECTRICAL those currently serving CONTRACTOR overseas.” Anzac services in We are here to help you with: Cambridge on Anzac • Service Mains Day, Thursday April • Overhead and Underground Reticulation 25, will include the • Inspection Services traditional Dawn Service at the cenotaph outside Phone: the Cambridge Town 07 827 4014 Hall at 6am, gathering on the plaza from 5.45am.

Leamington seven-time Top School

Leamington Primary School has come out on top by a massive margin as the Waikato’s “Top School”. They earned the title convincingly at the Battle of the Schools event hosted by Te Kowhai School on April 7, completing a series of physical activities and challenges in a similar fashion to the 1980s New Zealand TV classic, “Top Town”. Collecting points at each station, the team of twelve earned a massive 72-point total, out of a maximum 90 points, to earn the Top School trophy for Year 5 and 6 students. Aberdeen School were second best with 56 points, followed by Knighton Normal School on 28 points. It was the seventh time the school has won the trophy in the past ten years. School principal Mike Malcolm said he

was very proud of the students. “They went as a determined team to do their best, and they felt they did that,” he said. “They worked really well as a team.” The students thought their communication and preparation for the competition were big factors towards their success, practicing their strategy and problem solving abilities ahead of the event. “I liked this year better,” said Ricco, who also won the competition last year with the Leamington School team. “I think most of the other teams were bad because they didn’t look like they had practiced at all,” he said. Thinking of advice for teams at next year’s event, fellow student Madi said, “Work as a team, don’t work against each other and don’t give up.” “And don’t let pressure get to you,” Anna added.

Faith Thomas

Faith Thomas has been selected as the only New Zealand artist to feature in the International Mezzotint Festival in Ekaterinburg, Russia. The Cambridge artist recently opened her Leamington-based studio to the public during the Cambridge Autumn Festival, attracting over 100 visitors. Now hundreds more, if not thousands, will see her work during the international exhibition in the Ekaterinburg Museum of Fine Arts from August 16 – September 29 this year, where 82 artists have been selected to feature. Mezzotint is a specialised field of printmaking and is one of the most difficult and time-consuming techniques. A copper

plate is hand-worked with a mezzotint rocker, producing a toothed surface able to take ink. The image is then burnished and scraped in layers on this surface, which requires patience and meticulous attention to detail. Thomas, an art teacher at St Peter’s School for over two decades, has been a print maker for many years and has been exhibiting in New Zealand and internationally for 40 years. “Although New Zealand is geographically isolated I have never felt isolated from what is happening in contemporary art practice,” she said. “I am delighted and proud to be holding the flag for New Zealand printmakers.” She recently had etchings and mezzotints in the third International Print Show 2017 in

Portugal, and at the 9th Biennial in Douro, 2018. The Douro Museum still holds her work in its collection. She is currently completing new work for the 4th International Print exhibition and 10th Biennial 2019 and 2020. Thomas also supports her students in their own journeys as artists. “Artists have access now to so many international exhibition opportunities thanks to the internet. Taking the time to create a professional website, high-quality photographs of artworks, and maintaining an exhibition CV are essential to international exposure,” she said. “Live life, draw every day and set the bar high.”

Let Tiles Make Your Statement

Cambridge Middle School will soon see an end to its struggle to find space for a growing student role. The intermediate school, one of Cambridge’s mostaffected schools under the strain of a growing population, will receive $3 million from the Ministry of Education to build six new classrooms, as part of a nationwide $9m spend. No time frame has yet been set for the new buildings, but Labour list MP Jamie Strange, who announced the news at the school on Friday last week, said the Ministry of Education would soon meet with the school’s board

of trustees to discuss the build. Cambridge Middle School has been trying to secure funding from the Ministry for more classrooms for several years now, bolstered by a fire in 2016 which destroyed one classroom and damaged another. Student numbers were already substantial then at 440 students, but with 242 more on the role in 2019, the need was at a premium. Already the school’s old woodwork room and even an enclosed foyer had been converted into classrooms. “We are thrilled that we are finally getting classrooms that we have been campaigning for the last three years,” said

acting principal Tagget Christophersen, crediting former long-standing principal Ross Tyson for “a lot of hard work” in the strenuous journey to secure the funds, coupled with dedicated efforts by the Board of Trustees and current principal Daryl Gibbs, who was on sick leave. Other schools in Cambridge are also working with the Ministry of Education to secure funding for more classroom space. Currently around 20,400 people live in the Cambridge area, up by 1200 people since 2015. In 2001 the population was about 13,890. By 2030 the population is expected to be 29,140.

Community encouraged to fundraise for Camp Quality

Camp Quality is encouraging Cambridge residents, along with Kiwis across the country, to plan their own special fundraising event or activity to help the organisation support the nation’s youngest patients living with cancer. The non-profit organisation provides camps and recreational programmes for children living with cancer. At a cost of $2,700 for each child, the organisation hopes to raise $100,000 this year to enable these children to experience fun, hope, and happiness. And so throughout the month of May Camp Quality is encouraging Kiwis to camp out for the night, do a thrill-seeking activity, or simply organise a community event like a

morning tea or bake stall - all in an effort to raise funds for the cause. More information can be found at www.camp4campquality. org.nz. One Cambridge resident has already experienced the magic and wonder of Camp Quality. “Reef was the youngest member on camp, but he absolutely loved it,” said Rosie Smith, mother of Reef Smith, 6, who was first diagnosed with Leukaemia at 20 months old in October 2014. “I was worried he would really miss me as he is young and we have a close bond having spent so much time together in a hospital room over the years. But he didn’t miss me a bit! He was too busy having fun,

which is amazing.” The family was introduced to Camp Quality through Child Cancer Foundation, and last year Reef was old enough to attend a two-night winter camp, then a longer fivenight summer camp earlier this year. “Reef had an incredible companion called Bryce, he loved that. He also enjoyed all the freedom he experienced on camp. Normally he is told ’no’ a lot, because of all he’s been through and his compromised immune system. But on camp, they say yes to everything - it’s set up in such a way that he can have fun and take part in everything, it was such a joy to him and to us,” said Rosie. Reef spent much of his early years in and out of hospital as his particular type of

Leukaemia made him very susceptible to bugs, meaning there were regular infections and he was often there for weeks at a time. For the past 12 months Reef has been much more settled, and last year he finished his chemotherapy treatment. Rosie couldn’t speak highly enough of the Camp Quality experience. “The kids are encouraged to be themselves and to feel as normal as possible, which is exactly what these kids need.” As well as organising fundraisers for the cause, Camp Quality is also encouraging direct donations. To find out more visit www.camp4campquality.org.nz.

Cambridge’s Reef Smith has enjoyed heaps of fun at Camp Quality. He’s pictured here with his Child Cancer Foundation Beads of Courage, each bead representing a treatment.

Students have their say with MP

By Sophie Iremonger

Cambridge High School students were reminded that their voices do count when they attended a Youth Advisory Board meeting in

and her Youth MP Katie Donald. “Attending the Youth Advisory Board was an exceptional opportunity to be an active part of the civics process,” said Charlotte Mitchell, Cambridge High School’s deputy head girl. “To have an outlet like this is especially important, it allows us to have a conversation with lawmakers about the youth’s role in the civics playing

Tokoroa recently. The meeting on April 5 saw students from Cambridge, South Waikato and Taupo high schools gather and discuss ideas with Taupo electorate MP Louise Upston

field.” Upston said the meeting was an important opportunity to hear the views of young people. “A really important opportunity to make sure young people have their say and are engaged and understand what happens in Parliament and how they can have their voices heard,” she said. After discussing a number of issues important to youth, including climate change,

the cost of living, house prices and mental health, the students came up with a community project, “Bring Parliament to School Day”, which will happen in August. “This day will have a strong focus on how youth of all different spectrums can play a role in the electoral process and are able to partake in the making of the laws that effect us most,” Charlotte explained. “As someone who is

already heavily interested in the civic process and politics in general, one of the main take-aways from this experience was the different ways that I can involve myself and my community within this process.” Upston said the students, whom she referred to as the country’s “future leaders”, showed great energy and enthusiasm. “I’ll be watching their journey towards Youth Parliament 2019 with interest this year,” she said.

BMX riders successful in Australia Get gardening

Cambridge BMX riders Rico D’Anvers and Bennett Greenough claimed podium finishes in the Australian national series competition at Ipswich, Queensland at the weekend. D’Anvers collected UCI world ranking points with his third-place finish in the junior men’s final, a UCI Category One event. Greenough finished third in the 16 boys category final after winning all his races, and Cambridge’s Charlie Lester-Rosson finished fifth in the junior women’s final.

PROPERTY • FARMING EMPLOYMENT PERSONAL

The trio are part of Cycling New Zealand’s National BMX Performance Hub along with Cambridge rider Tasman Wakelin. They spent last week training for the event with Australian Development riders in Brisbane. The previous weekend, April 5 – 7, the performance hub riders competed in the Queensland International BMX event in Brisbane, another UCI Category 1 (C1) event, with Tasman making a valuable second place finish in the junior elite men final, and Rico D’Anvers third. An injury during training prevented Tasman from competing at Ipswich. Charlie Lester-Rosson also finished fourth in the combined junior women and elite women racing. “We went [to Australia] to challenge the team and see if they were at the level to be able to handle a SX/World Cup track,” said BMX Performance Hub Coach Matt Cameron. “The Hub riders showed they were up for the challenge, and performed well in key Australian rounds, racking up a number of C1 points. “By all accounts, it was a very successful trip with a lot of learnings to implement in the coming phases of training leading into World Championships.” A contingent of Cambridge BMX Club members competed at both Queensland events alongside the club’s Performance Hub riders, with Cambridge’s six-time world champion Leila Walker securing comprehensive victory in the 14-yearold girls division at the Ipswich national series.

Experienced professionals. Local specialists. Quality advice.

A monthly gardening column, courtesy of Amber Garden Centre As the first signs of winter bite, it’s time to prepare the garden for the winter ahead. Vege garden Harvest pumpkins and store in a cool, dry place. Dig out potato crops and store in a cool, dark place. Kumara should be harvested before the first frost. Planting winter vegetables – cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, silverbeet, spinach and beetroot – in a raised garden will help with drainage. And don’t forget the slug bait. Any areas not planted should be sown with mustard or lupin as a green crop to help add nutrients into the soil for spring. Fruit Once pip and stonefruit have lost their leaves, you can prune. Follow up immediately with a spray of copper to protect against leaf curl, black spot, leaf spot and blight. Prune feijoa bushes following the fruit harvest. Flower garden Time to replace summer annuals with winter flowers, such as primula, polyanthus, pansy and viola, dianthus and Iceland poppies. Sweet peas planted now in a sunny spot will flower in spring. Ensure spring bulbs are all planted now. Autumn is a good time to plant new shrubs, such as camellias and rhododendrons. Planted now, they establish before winter and will perform better in the spring. Lawns Now is the best time to put down a new lawn, as you will get less weed growth. Turfix weed spray will control weeds in existing lawns and a top dress with a slow-release lawn fertiliser will green the lawn without strong leaf growth. Happy gardening and stay warm.

Fund to help build events

Waipa District Council is encouraging event organisers to apply for funding to help create successful events in the district, through the 2019/20 District Promotion Fund. Applications opened on Monday and will remain open throughout April and most of next month, offering a total of $100,000 to support events that promote Waipā as an attractive place to live, work, invest in or visit. The Community Event Fund is also now open, offering $30,000 in total for grass-roots events that build and celebrate community pride. The fund was formed by Council last year as part of the 10-Year Plan process to ensure town-centric events could also have a chance at funding. “Whether it’s road cycling, dragon boat nationals or arts festivals; all of these events have a positive effect on the district and its people. It’s fantastic to be able to continue to support regular events in our district, as well as attracting new events each year,” said Waipā mayor Jim Mylchreest. “With the introduction of the Community Event Fund we’ve recognised the need for support for smaller

events as well. We want to help build these up to be champion events, alongside our larger national and international events.” Council is also offering Waipa Home of Champions equipment addition to monetary support, as well as

guidance through the event planning processes. Application forms are available online at waipadc. govt.nz/funding or from Council offices by request. Applications must be received by 5pm, Friday 24 May 2019.

Avantidrome turns five

Special events at the Avantidrome over the weekend marked the fifth anniversary of the indoor velodrome, which was opened by the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge in 2014. To celebrate, the Avantidrome hosted an open day on Saturday with a range of complimentary activities on offer, including free have-a-go sessions, gym tasters, tours, trike sessions, and even an 82-year-old local getting on the track for the first time. Arline Pile, 82, is a regular visitor to the Avantidrome, explaining, “I normally ride the three wheelers in the Avantidrome Trikes sessions and have always wanted to try the two wheelers on the track. Today is the day.” And a day it was, with spritely Arline giving younger participants a run for their money on the 250m wooden velodrome. Have-a-go participants travelled from across the Waikato including Putaruru, Matamata, Hamilton and Tamahere, not to mention others making the trip from

Auckland, and a host of Cambridge locals. Several parents signed their kids up for the school holiday learn to ride programme which started this week. Cycling New Zealand’s Eddie Dawkins, Emma Cumming, Olivia Podmore and Harry Waine, accompanied by British Cycling’s Mark Stewart, joined a lucky group of 22 avid Avantidrome riders in an exclusive opportunity to ride with the champs, sharing their stories and expertise as well as riding the track with a group of excited young kids and grown-ups for an hour and half of skill sessions and racing. “Five years is a significant milestone for the Home of Cycling (HoC) that’s worth celebrating,” said Home of Cycling’s General Manager, Scott Gemmill. “We wanted to do something to say thanks to our loyal riders and the wider community for their support. “We’re excited to be working on what the next five years will bring.”

Under 85kg Hosting Melville on Saturday, Leamington U85’s dominated

possession for the first 10 minutes with first five Jesse Warwick slotting a penalty from 35 out. Melville then had a great period of play running in five tries. Nearing half time Leamington flung the ball wide with some great vision from fullback Nic Bolger, sending winger Dave Dawkins over for a try. They continued to dominate into the second half. After three tries were disallowed, openside Thomas Davies crashed over for his second try of the season, carrying four Melville players with him. Melville scored a quick two tries before inspirational Leamington co-captain Lewis Meerkerk broke through multiple defenders for his first try in the blue and white jersey.

Hautapu takes the only 100 per cent record in the Waikato Premier A rugby competition into today’s clash at Melville. The young side made it four from four on Saturday courtesy of a 34-21 home win over co-leaders Otorohanga at Memorial Park. In front of a large crowd this clash certainly lived up to its billing. After trading early penalties at 3-all the visitors put two quick tries on Hautapu to lead 15-3 after 20 minutes. Hautapu then got into the game and went on to score two good tries to lead 17-15 at half time.

The second half was again a very hard-fought battle with both teams scoring two tries in an end-to-end game, of which Hautapu got on top and came out the victors 34-27. Otorohanga won the development clash between the clubs 34-19. The King Country visitors, last year’s champions, made a strong start, getting a penalty in front of the posts and three points on board. With the big Otorohanga forwards coming at them, Hautapu defence stood their ground. But the visitors eventually broke through a ruck and scored the game’s first try. As the game progressed

Hautapu forwards and backs combined well but couldn’t put points on the board. The visitors managed to score two tries, one converted, to bring the half time score to 20-0. In the second half Hautapu struck back with a try to skipper Matt Caldwell, a great forward effort which boosted the home team confidence. With their tails up, they added another converted try but the visitors came back with two of their own. Hautapu, who could be proud of their efforts, managed a converted try to Josh Gore, to complete the scoring.

A notch in belt for softballer By Sophie Iremonger

Daniel de Jong has returned from a whirlwind trip in Australia, competing in the New South Whales U14 International Challenge in Sydney. It was quite the achievement for the 13 year old, not only representing New Zealand on the ISA under 14 team, but also being selected as one of the tournament’s top 11 players out of all the teams at the tournament, making it on to the “All Stars” team. “It was a really good learning experience, a good way to improve, and it was fun too,” he said. Improvement has come in spades for Daniel over the past year, having only taken up the sport 13 months ago. “It’s just, trying and having a willingness to learn,” Daniel said, thinking of a reason for is rapid progress. “I just tried it out and thought, ‘this is fun’, and just continued to get better.” The best part of the competition in Sydney over March 23 – 24, Daniel said, was meeting new people in the sport, gaining experience in the game, and training under former Black Sox coach Brian Mountford. Hayden Smith, the former NZ Softball chief executive and also coach to the ISA team, was quite impressed with Danny’s initiative to take on one of the more difficult fielding positions in the game, third base. “He made it his own,” Smith said. “His batting against some of the world’s best agegrade pitchers was also reliable. “He stood out from the team as one of the most consistent performers and more importantly, applied new thinking to his game.” Daniel’s achievements in the game mean

Cambridge High School will be adding him to their “Hall of Fame”. He wished to thank his club, Tom Voyle Sports Club, including coaches Wayne and Tyrone West, for all of their support in both the game and getting to Sydney. He plans to sign up for the ISA New Zealand team again next year, and looks forward to continuing to master the game. “It’s easy to learn, but difficult to master,” he said.

Daniel de Jong has returned from Sydney where he represented New Zealand on the ISA under 14 team.

Things to do this weekend Cambridge hosts dozens of cultural, local and sports events each month and the local calendar is full of fun things to do over the school holidays. Budgets needn't be stretched as many are free. A bike or a pair of walking shoes is all it takes to get out among nature and enjoy the best of the area. Adventuring around the Cambridge green belt and river trails is a great way to spend a day. Maungakawa Scenic Reserve has lovely bush walks, picnic spots and places to play. If you're up for a challenge, you can hike to the summit of Mt Pirongia and stay overnight in a hut. Cambridge i-SITE has walking and hiking maps, and sells hut tickets. Kids can go free to Waitomo Caves until April 30. The child must be with a paying adult on any of the dry cave tours including Waitomo, Ruakuri and Aranui caves. Lake District Adventures Lake District Adventures has a family-friendly promotion these school holidays, with a one-child free deal offered when the child is accompanied by a paying adult. The promo applies to any of the company's fun-filled adventures including bikes, e-bikes, kayaks, stand-up paddle boards and guided tours. Kids' seats and bikes to suit all abilities are available. Lake District Adventures offers mountain bike tours and specialises in glow worm adventures. Varying ages and fitness levels are catered for. What better way to enjoy the Easter holidays than getting out among nature on the scenic trails of Cambridge and stunning Lake Karapiro. The warm fuzzies Cambridge is home to some of the cutest sheep in the world – the Valais Blacknose with their unmistakeable black faces, ears and long spiral horns, black patches on their knees, hocks and feet. Rub noses with these fluffy creatures. A fun day family visit to an alpaca farm involves more than meeting some friendly alpacas. The menagerie includes llamas, miniature donkeys, goats and horses. A wet day? Take the kids to the movies. Tivoli Cinema is screening some great children's films. And while they're engrossed in their movie, you can relax in one of the town's cafés or enjoy the retail scene. If you're feeling energetic, jump on a bike and join the Café Crawl. Part of the Cambridge Cycling Festival, the ride/eat/drink/repeat crawl involves riding your bike to one of the 20 participating cafés in April and collecting a sticker. Of course, the more stickers you collect, the more chances you have of winning one of the two EVO cycles being given away.

Black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia) Originally a native of the Allegheny Mountains, USA, this broadly columnar, deciduous tree is now widespread throughout the Americas, Europe and Asia. Its Latin name is after the head gardener to Henri IV and Louis XIII of France, Jean Robin (1550 -1629), who received plants from Canada. Its common name was given to it by Jesuit missionaries in the Americas who thought it was the tree that had supported St John in the wilderness, not knowing that it was neither a true locust, nor native to the Middle East! Growing to between 30 and 50 feet in height, it is suitable as a medium garden or street tree; pollution-tolerant, its height lends proportion to the streetscape. The delicate compound leaves turn yellow in autumn and are not a problem to dispose of; in spring it has drooping racemes of white, scented flowers which look rather like wysteria and are attractive to bees. Indeed in the eastern USA Robinia is a major honey plant. In autumn flowers are followed by pea-like pods about four inches long. In New Zealand Robinia is mainly grown as an ornamental tree, but around the world it is put to many practical uses, a veritable one-stop-shop. Traditionally the Cherokee used the beans as an emetic, and a painkiller for toothache. It also has astringent, diuretic and sedative properties. The flowers contain benzaldehyde, which has an almond-like odour; they are used in Romania to make an aromatic jam, whereas in Italy and France they are battered and fried in oil. The deeply furrowed grey bark is yellow inside and is used for dyeing. The wood is hard and strong, rot resistant, and competes with hickory for its high-lustre finish; it is

used in boat building, flooring, furniture making, veneer, and also rail road ties and mine timbers. In India Robinia is grown in coppiced plantations, completing the harvest cycle in a mere 27 years. It will grow in most well-drained soils and with its dense root system is excellent for erosion control, while its nitrogen-fixing abilities enrich poor soils.

Winter Warmth FEATURE

CAMBRIDGE NEWS | 23

ARE YOU READY FOR WINTER?

Winter safety tips around the home A lot of energy consumption occurs over winter, which can put a strain on your household budget. While it's important to keep your home warm, not all solutions need to be complex and costly. A few simple measures can help. Optimise the sun The sun is free so make the most of it. Let the sunlight in during the day and close your curtains when it gets dark. Curtains act as another layer of insulation. Check for leaks and gaps so that the warm air can stay in. This will also help reduce condensation. Insulation As a significant amount of heat can be lost through the roof, insulate your ceiling. Cavity wall insulation helps reduce heat loss by filling the air space with material that inhibits heat transfer. Underfloor insulation can also make a big difference to how comfortable

your home is, and to the size of your energy bills. In homes with accessible underfloor, insulation is relatively cheap and easy to do. Furniture arrangement Let hot air circulate freely. Don't block your heat source. Move beds away from windows, which can be draughty. Drape blankets and throws on couches and chairs to encourage their use. Arranging reading spaces around one light source can save energy. Use smaller light sources near beds for reading. Block out the draughts DIY draught-proof your doors and windows. A simple solution such as a making your own sausage dog draught excluder will help keep the warmth in your home. Selfadhesive rubber seals around doors and windows and door draught excluders are relatively cheap and easy to install.

Winter preparation • A clean fire burns more efficiently. Get your chimney swept, and wood or pellet fire serviced. Heat pumps should also be serviced regularly. • Check your smoke alarms are working and that your home is fitted with an adequate number. The New Zealand Fire Service recommends long life photoelectric smoke alarms be installed in every bedroom, living area and hallway in a house, on every level. • Get electric blankets checked

by a qualified electrician if there are any signs of wear. Electric blankets should be placed flat on beds. Avoid twisting the controls and cords and check that they are not caught between the mattress and the base of the bed. • It’s worth getting doors and windows sealed before winter properly kicks in. • If you have a hot water tank, make sure it is properly lagged, or insulated. This will keep the water warmer for longer, and reduce heating costs.

Electric blankets – pros and cons

Pros: • Modern electric blankets use low-voltage wiring which means they are much safer than the dangerous older models that constituted a fire hazard. • An electric blanket provides uniform warmth and reduces the necessity of adding layer upon layer. • Electric blankets provide a low level heat for many hours which increases blood flow, relaxes muscles and reduces muscle aches. • They can help save on heating bills (if you turn down other heat sources overnight). • An electric heating blanket can be warm and comforting during cold wintry months, if properly used and maintained. • Studies suggest therapeutic benefits, such as increasing the ease of falling asleep and promoting longer periods of sleep, with less movement and fewer reawakenings.

Make sure your chimney is swept.

ACC top tips to avoid winter injuries

- keep furniture and clothing at least 1m away from heaters - treat ashes as though they are still hot; keep in a metal container clear of the house - keep a fire extinguisher handy - run cords from heaters and other appliances along the wall to avoid tripping over them - make sure clutter is put away - wipe up any puddles of water left inside from raincoats and umbrellas - make sure pathways and steps are well lit and free of moss or foliage.

Check your electric blanket.

Cons: • Like any electric appliance, there is always a remote possibility of fire danger. • Electric blankets are not recommended for children, the incapacitated, or those who are insensitive to heat. • Overheating and burns are particularly problematic for diabetics, who may not notice that a blanket is too hot until it's too late due to nerve damage. • A 1998 Yale University study found that using an electric blanket during early pregnancy was associate with a slightly increased risk of miscarriage. • Electric blankets generate a low-level electromagnetic field, which some studies suggest could increase the risk of certain cancers. While the link between electromagnetic fields and cancer is highly controversial, and there is no conclusive evidence either way, it's possible that the electric field generated by the blanket could be unhealthy.

FRIDAY APRIL 19, 2019

‘We make it easy’ Eastside Refrigeration is a locally, privately owned company – and it shows. Both directors are Waikato lads and are hands on within the company. ‘Treat a customer how you would like to be treated yourself – make it easy’ is the basis for solving problems. Striving to do things right the first time is the aim. ‘Client satisfaction is a serious thing, and we take it personally. We have real pride in being experts at what we do. We are specialised in our field and differentiate ourselves from numerous competitors by striving to be better at design, better organised and more personal in our approach, including an unprecedented guarantee of design. We are Refrigeration, Heating and Air Conditioning Engineers and proud of it. And no… we don’t sell T.Vs or toasters!’

our services

Heat Pump Sales & Installation At Eastside Refrigeration we believe it’s all about the personal touch. We take responsibility for all aspects of design, sales, installation and then follow up with post installation service and maintenance. We offer design advice for all homes and can visit you to see exactly what is required.

Commercial Sales & Installation Commercial air conditioning requires extensive design and installation. Heading up our design team, Don Hollingsworth brings over 30 years of HVAC experience to Eastside and is a qualified Mechanical engineer. He and the team can design air conditioning and ventilation systems to suit both residential and commercial buildings of any size.

Servicing & Repair The service department at Eastside focuses on air conditioning and refrigeration, with some work in ventilation. The team also service and maintain many specialised sites, including large cool rooms, blast freezers and specialised medical and scientific equipment. There is a rostered 24 hour, 7 day emergency call-out system for existing commercial clients.

Preventative Maintenance Organising regular preventative maintenance with us will ensure you aren’t paying more to heat and cool your home or office than you need to. For commercial applications, preventative maintenance is incredibly important and is often required for Council compliance. Any issues, even those that seem to be minor, can create inefficient systems making them less cost-effective.

ARE YOU READY FOR WINTER?

Winter clothing

Helping vulnerable families Helping others less fortunate is a good way to warm our hearts. Thousands of vulnerable Kiwi kids are in need of basic material goods like raincoats and shoes so they can go to school in winter. Attendance often drops when children who have to walk to school canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get out on cold rainy days. Families struggling to pay the rent, meet their monthly bills and put food on the table, find themselves having to forfeit things like shoes and raincoats.

What one family takes for granted, another family may be in desperate need of. Those in a more fortunate position can help keep a less advantage family clothed and warm through donation of goods. Make it a family activity to go through cupboards and drawers and gather no longer used items of clothing, winter coats, shoes and blankets. Organisations like KidsCan and the Salvation Army will happily distribute them to those in need.

It's time to take stock of your winter wardrobe to cold-proof yourself over the cooler months. We invariably resort to layering when it comes to winter. The strategy is simple: start with a warm base layer, add on insulation, then top with outerwear and accessories. Long thermal underwear does a great job of wicking moisture away from your body. These can be worn under almost any outfit to help you stay dry and warm. Thermal knits are usually made from either fleece or a cotton and polyester blend. If you don't wear long underwear, choose an undershirt made from moisture-wicking fabric that will help keep you dry. Look for naturally moisture-resistant materials like merino wool, or athletic fabrics like polypropylene. Wearing cotton next to your skin is not recommended. Cotton retains moisture when you sweat which creates a damp layer against your skin and make you feel colder. Tights or leggings under pants provide added warmth. Thick long socks will keep your feet toasty. But make sure they're comfortable and

fit into your shoes. Top your base layer with a shirt that can be easily removed. Being able to take off layers is extremely important in the winter. Another option is to wear a lightweight sweater. Sturdy thick but breathable materials are best for a middle layer. Add a sweatshirt, hoodie or cardigan. Make sure you have a heavy coat or waterproof jacket for outdoors. Accessories like scarf, hat and gloves provide added warmth. Choose footwear carefully for comfort and resilience against the weather.

Kid cooks

Encouraging your kids to cook can be rewarding. Initially you may need to work alongside them giving little demonstrations of cutting techniques and measuring. However, allow them to enjoy working with food and eventually you could have your own personal chef on call — well, at least for a couple of meals a week. At breakfast encourage the children to cook an egg in the microwave. Lightly grease a small dessert bowl suitable for the

with Jan Bilton microwave and break in an egg. Pierce the top with a toothpick, cover the bowl with a paper towel and cook on medium (50%) power for about 1 minute. Look at the egg — if it needs more cooking, give it another 10 seconds or so. When cooked, the egg slides out easily onto toast or a muffin. At lunch, encourage the kids to build their own salads in preserving jars. Or allow them to set up a ‘sandwich bar’ and take orders from the family. At dinner they can dice vegetables for a salad or stir-fry. Show them how to add the chunky veggies to the wok first followed by those that cook more quickly. In no time they will be junior Masterchefs.

BYO SALAD

Kay Hogan – training advisor extraordinaire

Kay Hogan’s career has centred around people, horses and education. The NZTR training advisor was city-bred but had a father who was involved in horses and an uncle who trained them. She joined a pony club at the age of four and has maintained a lifelong interest in things equine. A qualified school teacher, Kay gained a Diploma of Teaching with commendation from Auckland Teachers College. But it was at Ardmore’s Meadowlands Stud where she acquired her knowledge of stud farms. Kay worked for renowned veterinarian, breeder, stud master and owner Charlie Roberts, a driving force in New Zealand harness racing circles for more than 60 years. She later went to England where she gained a BHSI qualification, a British Horse Society Instructors Certificate. On her return she was appointed national coach for the NZ Pony Club Association. She is also a qualified Equestrian Sports NZ (ESNZ) performance coach and coach educator For 17 years St Peter’s School had the benefit of her knowledge and experience, as director of the school’s equine academy. “I loved it. The academy has had marvellous success and produced some great riders.” During her years there Kay developed the highly successful equestrian academy programme and facilities, plus a very popular series of inter-school events for dressage, show jumping, show hunter and mounted games. When she left in 2017, 28 current or former academy students had represented New Zealand in eventing, mounted games, dressage showing, polocrosse and showing. “Many continue to ride successfully in New Zealand and overseas.” The St Peter’s Equestrian Teams also achieved outstanding results winning inter-school Waikato and North Island titles in every discipline; dressage, show hunter, eventing, mounted games and show jumping. Always keen for a challenge, Kay currently works with New Zealand Thoroughbred Racing (NZTR) is as a training advisor. She is responsible for recruiting trainees into the National Certificates in Equine Levels 3 and 4 and overseeing the assessment of the theory and practical units that make up the certificates. The trainees are all employed on stud farms in the northern region, mainly on thoroughbred studs in the Waikato and South Auckland. Pictured left: Kay Hogan and V4 Vegas ridden by Neve Innes.

Equine breeding trainee of the year

Jim Carroll’s career found his true vocation four years ago. He’d barely touched a horse when he arrived in Waikato in 2015 after a nine year stint in Perth where he worked as an operations manager for an events company. “My father was sick and I realised I had to stay here,” says Jim, originally from Whitianga. “I decided to get a job with horses. I’d always had an interest in racing.” What Jim lacked in hands-on experience, he made up with passion for thoroughbred racing, a great work ethic and attention to detail. These attributes set his career off at a gallop. Carroll not only now holds the position of dry mare manager at Windsor Park Stud, he has also been awarded the Equine Breeding Trainee of the Year (Level 4). “I had no idea the award existed, and was quite stunned and speechless when I found out.” Jim, who enrolled in the NZTR Equine Breeding Certificate programme in 2016, last year completed both the Level 3 and 4 qualifications. NZTR training advisor Kay Hogan said during his studies Jim showed great determination, was keen to learn, and had an excellent attitude and commitment. “All of which made him an outstanding candidate for this year’s award.” The certificates have a strong emphasis on trainees showing competence in a variety of practical skills relevant to the equine industry, backed up by theory assessments. According to stud manager Rodney Schick, Jim Carroll is a valued member of the Windsor Park team, who strives for excellence in everything he does. The highly regarded Cambridge stud has been successfully breeding and raising great thoroughbred racehorses for more than 30 years.

Looking ahead, Jim would like to remain in the stud industry and make some money from breeding. “I’ll see how it goes.”

First grapes harvested at St Peter’s From the early 21st century onwards, New Zealand’s modern wine industry has expanded rapidly, averaging 17 per cent per annum in the first two decades and making a name on the world stage as a new-world wine country. New Zealand produces award-winning wines and exports to world-wide markets. While the country is best known internationally for sauvignon blanc, New Zealand also has a growing international reputation for pinot noir, chardonnay, pinot gris, riesling, cabernet sauvignon, merlot and methode traditionelle wines. The country’s approximate 500 wineries are divided into three categories, depending on how many litres they produce. Most of the winemakers are boutique, small scale operations producing low volumes of niche varieties. Close to home, students at St Peter’s Cambridge are learning first-hand the science of viticulture. Over the last two and a half years agriculture and horticulture students have been involved with training, tying and pruning vines in the school’s 0.1ha vineyard. Head of horticulture and agriculture Mike Kilgour says the exercise aims to create an opportunity for authentic

learning. “Year 12 chemistry students are doing regular titrations to determine the titratable acidity of the fruit. “This is important as we cannot pick the grapes until we reach the correct level.” The recent first pickings resulted in a fruitful 100+kg of pinot gris and 210kg of chardonnay. The harvests were sent to Forbidden Fruit Winery in the Karangahake Gorge where they will be turned into wine. About 15kgs of grapes makes 10 bottles of wine. Students have had to pluck leaves from around the fruit to reduce humidity in the bunches. They have also used a refractometer to measure brix (sugar levels) in the grapes. Learning opportunities have extended beyond the science lab and vineyard and into the design and visual communication field. Year 10 design students are getting on board and designing the wine labels. The wine’s name, Blue Ruru, or blue morepork, reflects the school’s blue colour and its symbol is an owl. On the menu is pino gris, chardonnay, cabernet franc and pinotage. The wine will be used for gifts and promotions.

First results from DairyNZ’s partnership farm project Around half of New Zealand’s total greenhouse gas emissions of methane and nitrous oxide gases are from farming and a lot of work goes into researching ways to reduce these emissions. Every year around $20 million is invested in the research and development of ways to reduce biological emissions from agriculture. And it’s paying off. An 18-month long project to

understand how changes on farm to reduce greenhouse gas emissions may impact a farms profitability and productivity recently came to fruition when DairyNZ released the results for the Owl demonstration farm in Cambridge. DairyNZ chief executive Tim Mackle said the aim was to model and apply practical measures to see how New Zealand’s highly

eﬃcient pastoral farm systems can be adapted to meet the country’s climate change goals. “The outcome of this project is important to helping us understand the impact of making improvements or changes to how a farm operates in order to reduce emissions and nitrogen leaching.” St Peter’s Owl Farm was one of 12 farms across New Zealand to take part in the Partnership Farm Project,

modelling 44 different farm systems. While it was apparent that every farm is different, the case studies will be a useful tool to farmers for comparing against their own farm and seeing what might be possible. “The other clear message is to measure, or estimate, biological greenhouse gas emissions – to know your numbers – as that is the first step to knowing how to manage them,” Dr Mackle said.

Federated Farmers calls for common sense Farmers are concerned that the environment will suffer unless further changes are made to the Arms Amendment Bill. Access to firearms allows effective animal pest control on farms. As it stands at present, landowners with significant pest problems will no longer have access to one of the

tools they need to effectively manage their land, says Federated Farmers rural security spokesperson Miles Anderson. “Federated Farmers publicly backed the Government on this important issue from day one, based on the need to both protect public safety and ensure continuing access to the

appropriate firearms for those who have demonstrated a genuine need.” Pest control is a big issue to New Zealand landowners. Five million hectares of land is privately owned high and hill country. Federated Farmers is left wondering where the Agriculture, Biosecurity, Forestry, Conservation and Land

Information Ministers were when common sense was needed around the issue. “The Select Committee considers that Department of Conservation and regional councils staff can be trusted with firearms, but a small number of carefully vetted private landowners cannot,” Anderson says.

Uncertainty in the farming sector Rural sales for the first three months of the year have been subdued. Principal of Harcourts Cambridge, Kevin Deane, believes the quiet market is attributable to a combination of factors, including the vast gap between buyer and seller, which is a major contributor. “Reserve Bank pressures are also having a big impact, with caps on lending.” The tightening up on bank capital requirements is being felt. “In the past, most farmers managed on interest but banks are now wanting principal payments as well,” Deane says. As Federated Farmers general policy manager Nick Clark recently opined, New Zealand is susceptible to global economic forces, weather and biosecurity incursions, so our banking system does need to be safe for our well-being. “Fonterra wobbles” are also to blame, according to Deane who cites issues around asset sales, payouts and holding back money. Into the mix comes environment pressures and compliance issues. Deane feels that the Government is not enamoured with the primary sector. “As a small Pacific nation, New Zealand relies largely on primary industries to keep it afloat. “There is also a lot of concern around the Healthy Rivers legislation and capital gains tax.” Faced with every increasing costs and compliance matters, Deane believes the future is uncertain for farmers and he has no idea how the rural real estate market will perform moving forward. “But the bottom Principal Kevin Deane – Harcourts Cambridge line is, your flat white will cost more.”

All Federated Farmers is asking is that rural landowners, who can demonstrate a genuine need to use firearms as part of their business, be eligible to apply for an exemption, just as provided for other professional firearms users in the Bill. None of the changes it seeks undermine public safety.

Looking for workable PC1 alternatives President of Federated Farmers Waikato Andrew McGiven says Healthy Rivers Plan Change 1 is likely to be the single biggest issue for farmers over the next 10 years. Major concerns centre around the imposition of unreasonable and unnecessary costs, and the overshooting of water quality targets. McGiven recently attended Block 1 of a three-block series of hearings for Proposed Change 1 – Waikato and Waipa River Catchments. The Federated Farmers' submission was well received. Working on leading a unified, workable alternative proposal, Federated Farmers has consulted extensively with its members with interests in the Waikato Region. Their key message is that nitrogen is not the main issue with swimmability. “Plan Change 1 is nitrogen myopic. It does not recognise the differences between sub catchments. We have greater issues with e.coli, sediment and phosphorus in some subcatchments and because of this, we will over deliver in some areas and under deliver in others,” McGiven says. A whole day has been set aside for FedFarmers' second presentation on Tuesday June 2. The organisation would like as many farmer members as possible attend the day to show support. The hearings are being conducted in front of six commissioners extensively experienced in RMA processes, water quality science, planning and iwi protocols.

Swimmers named top school at Waikato comp A team of 24 students represented St Peter’s School at the Waikato Secondary School Swimming Sports at Waterworld on April 2. The swimmers achieved several outstanding results and personal best swims, finishing second overall in the girl’s point score and fourth in the boy’s point score – resulting in a third-place result for top overall school, and first for co-ed schools in the region. First-place getters included Savanna Bourke, Tyler Tapper, Isabella Wilson, Bianca Donelley and Danielle Joblin, who each won multiple events in their age group. Danielle broke the ‘magical minute’ for the 100m freestyle event for the first time – quite a bit deal for swimmers. Second and third placers, who also achieved huge personal-best swims, included Caleb Blind, Alex Brackenbury, Izie Cleland, Spencer Cleland, Fin Conchie, Jade Houston, Katelyn Flynn, Sonya Price, Matthew Raath and Milana Tapper.

OPEN HOME

Are you looking for an executive family home that’s something out of the ordinary and in a great location? Built in 2010, this architecturally designed 312m2 home sits on a large section in a sought-after residential street in popular Norfolk Downs. Bounding the local high school sports ﬁelds, the feeling of space and room to move is not often found in town. With ﬁve bedrooms, four bathrooms and living areas on both levels, the layout of this home lends itself to many options including those with teenagers, international students, or extended family living. Ample room for a pool, and in a private cul-de-sac location, with easy access to Hamilton and the expressway. The discerning buyer who appreciates a home that is ‘one out of the box’ should take time to view. Auction: Thursday 2 May 2019 at 2.00pm, On Site Agent: Graham Ban 027 448 7658 Open Home: Sat 20 April 2.30-3.00pm, Sun 28 Apr 2.30-3.00pm Internet ID: CRE0776 or Open2view.com/451614

Elegance on The Oval (Park)

$1,269,000

43 Pengover Ave, Cambridge Situated at the end of a private drive sits an elegant contemporary home, built in imported French brick with uninterrupted views over the prestigious Cambridge Park Oval. Even though only built in 2017, this professionally landscaped property with low maintenance and privacy in mind, it is a little oasis. Downstairs are three double bedrooms, main bathroom (and an ensuite for the third bedroom). One of these bedrooms has an external entry, enabling it to be used as guest accommodation, giving the astute buyer some extra income. An extra master bedroom with bathroom or a family room is upstairs, still enjoying glimpses of the local skyline. The main living with a high stud and picture windows overlooking the Oval and English garden to the rear is an awesome place to sit back and relax from a busy day, yet still feel connected to the hub of the home. Call Greg or Raewyn now for that exclusive viewing. Price: $1,269,000 Agents: Greg Price 021 043 4555 or Raewyn Price 021 161 7247 Internet ID: CRE0719 or Open2view.com/447030

When he was 14, Smith drowned in Lake St. Louis and was dead for nearly an hour. According to reports at the time, CPR was performed 27 minutes to no avail. Then the youth’s mother, Joyce Smith, entered the room, praying loudly. Suddenly, there was a pulse, and Smith came around. Breakthrough is based on the inspirational true story of one mother’s unfaltering love in the face of impossible odds. When Joyce Smith’s adopted son John falls through an icy Missouri lake, all hope seems lost. But as John lies lifeless, Joyce refuses to give up. Her steadfast belief inspires those around her to continue to pray for John’s recovery, even in the face of every case history and scientific prediction. It is an enthralling reminder that faith and love can create a mountain of hope, and sometimes even a miracle.

Gladys Aylward (Ingrid Bergman), a British maid, believes that she is destined to go to China. She is rejected as a missionary, but she eventually finds her way to the town of Yang Cheng and happily runs an inn there. Her peaceful existence, however, is interrupted by Japan's invasion of China. Aided by Lin Nan (Curt Jurgens), a half-Chinese/halfDutch military officer, Gladys must lead a group of orphans to safety by embarking on a dangerous mountain journey. Winner of so many awards. An excellent, moving, beautiful and inspirational TRUE adventure. An extraordinary achievement from a remarkable dedicated woman - her mission, to save 100 orphaned children. The film closes with the column of children, led by Aylward, marching into the town, singing the song "This Old Man" to keep up their spirits.

Oh-so-close for Reds in football derby By Josh Easby

Cambridge went within a few seconds of keeping their 100 percent winning start to the Northern League season but conceded a draw to Claudelands Rovers with the last kick of the match. With six minutes of added time played, and Cambridge leading 1-0 at John Kerkhof Park, referee Sarah Jones was set to blow the final whistle when she ruled a tackle in the penalty box was deserving of a spot kick. Claudelands Rovers’ captain Bailey Webster struck the ball home and the match was over, the Waikato rivals tied 1-1 in the Lotto NRFL second division derby. It was an agonising end to the game which Cambridge had controlled from the hour mark when Rovers were reduced to 10 men with the sending off of Johnny Konings. The Reds had taken a deserved lead in the 67th minute when a goalmouth melee gave Cambridge defender Jack Portegys the chance to ram the ball home from close in. The scoreless first half had been an arm wrestle between two fit and skilful sides, both of whom had won their opening two games in the competition. Neither side had created a clear-cut chance and possession had been shared. For the final third of the match, Cambridge had chances to add two or three goals but couldn’t finish. And Rovers, to their credit, kept pushing forward until the end and earned themselves a draw which keeps both Waikato clubs unbeaten. For Cambridge, the defence was solid, the midfield was ably led by captain Nathan Claridge and forwards Callum MacLeod, Dylan Blair and Luke Stephenson (until he was substituted) kept the Rovers defence stretched. Despite the disappointment of the draw,

the Reds again showed they have learned from their season in the Northern League last year, and show a resilience missing in the past. Their next game is on Good Friday when Cambridge hosts Auckland’s Greenhithe Catimba. The first teams play at 3pm, while the reserves match up at 12.30pm at John Kerkhof Park. The reserves lost 6-4 in a frantic match against the Claudelands Rovers second string on Saturday. Scorers for Cambridge were Alex Mukaka (2), Crisian Angulo and Riley Higgs. The result leaves Cambridge mid-table in the reserves competition. In other games, Cambridge D1s drew 1-1 with Te Awamutu in the Waikato Division 3. Te Awamutu took a first half lead but

Mariano Castellon scored the equaliser for Cambridge in the second spell. In Division 4, Cambridge D2s were beaten 3-0 by Morrinsville at John Kerkhof Park. Scorers for the visitors were Aston Hurd (2) and Kynan Bilton. Cambridge’s women’s team lost their Waikato Division 1 match 3-2 to Claudelands Rovers. Cambridge’s young side worked well against the Hamilton visitors and scored through Kym Thomasen and Olivia Sutherland. Sutherland was the Hill Homes Player of the Day. On Sunday, both Cambridge’s WaiBOP Federation Youth/Junior League teams had close matches with Hamilton opposition. The U-13 boys lost 4-3 to Melville United,
