There could be a Cambridge-based film in the works, if sponsors get in behind the project.

Life-long Cambridge resident Matt Hicks, a marriage celebrant, DJ, event MC and owner of a media production business, is working to make the dream a reality by producing his own Cambridge-based film.

He’s already written the script and appointed much of the cast and hopes to start filming in September if he can reach his $72,000 fundraising target.

“Unfortunately if I can’t raise the funds it won’t happen. That’s the cold hard reality, I don’t like to entertain those thoughts though,” said Matt, keeping a positive attitude that the community will rally behind the project.

“Everyone is such a good bugger in this town. I’m sure they’ll come through.”

The film, dubbed The Tavern, is set in Cambridge, following five small-town guys who have a race against time to save their beloved yet run-down tavern from an evil, big city property developer with sinister plans, as Matt described it.

“We have an amazing cast,” said Matt.

He says he may have secured two famous New Zealand actors for the film.

He would like to have some of Cambridge’s familiar faces as cameo appearances. He’s also hired ex- Cambridge High School student Andrew T Lyall to play Chris the lawyer, “a very funny, memorable side role,” he said.

“It’s ultimately a story about ‘home is where the heart is’.

“There’s an old saying, ‘write what you know’, and a lot of it is inspired by life growing up in Cambridge.

“I’m really proud to be a Cambridge native and I would love to showcase some of our beauty. Places like Lake Karapiro, the river, Maungatautari mountain, the horse paddocks of Kaipaki and Hautapu and the beautiful centre of town.”

Matt said a big motivator behind the film was representing small town New Zealand.

“Because a lot of the film content that comes out of New Zealand is really city-centric… but the majority of New Zealand is like Cambridge.

“Provincial people aren’t really represented that well.”

Matt, a 31 year old ex-Cambridge High student, has spent the last few years working on small films and hopes to make it big with The Tavern.

films. There’s been some awesome Kiwi productions come out in the last year for under $100k, like Hang Time, Status Pending, Stray, Same But Different. They are all an inspiration for me, and they were self-funded from their communities.”

The Ross brothers at C&R Developments, John Turney from Waikato Ready Mix Concrete and Daniel Peake from McGregors Farm Services were the first local businesses to get in behind the project. Matt hopes more will join them. He is offering business packages including videos, premiere perks and shares in the film.

All going to plan, he hopes to have the film completed by Christmas, then giving it a run

in the film festival circuit before a big premier in Cambridge.

“I’d love to see a red-carpet premiere at Tivoli as part of the Cambridge Autumn Festival, with all the good people who have helped me,” Matt said. “My goal would be for everyone in Cambridge to see it then tour it through the country in pubs, taverns, footy clubs and of course cinemas.”

Letters to the editor It’s their world too…

Isaac Newton likened Earth’s atmosphere to a greenhouse, protecting us and making life possible, before man had got off the ground.

Subsequent generations have created global pollution – industry and transport being major contributors – nuclear radiation, wanton destruction of forests with chemical warfare, banning CFCs – which caused ozone depletion – probably the only success.

Pollution was greatest at fairly low altitudes. Advances in aviation since the 1950s have jet aircraft – flying in the upper troposphere – generating gasses that could not get to those altitudes otherwise, or by extreme weather events, caused by climate change.

Students, on your devices, Google “climate change, aviation contribution”. It’s what Al Gore calls, “an inconvenient truth”.

Continue with your protests. We, your parents and grand-parents, through our inaction during the last 60 odd years have allowed this to happen. It’s up to you, it’s your legacy, you’ll need all the help you can get. We’ll be long gone before it’s resolved.

The dreadful events in Christchurch on March 15 diverted attention from your actions.

Glaciers and polar ice-caps melting is not an aberration that will correct its-self if we do nothing.

Collecting plastic drinking straws (etc) is just a trivial diversion, it won’t arrest global warming.

A helping hand?

To whom it may concern, I was in Cambridge on Friday outside a shop, when I saw a young mother with her baby and a trolly of goods. I went to help her and all I got was, “Go away leave my baby alone get your hands off her, leave me alone”. I was only trying to help. The way she acted I thought she was on P. But never mind I won’t help people in Cambridge again.

I had a great outcome on Saturday. I was on the road and saw a car, asked if I could help, he had run out of petrol. So I went back to him after I had done my chores, picked him up and took him to get petrol. He was so grateful. He was lost as well, so I put him on the right road to get to Waihi.

So I will only be very careful again, sorry Cambridge.

Fieldays is nearly here

By Sophie Iremonger

A dozen days out, Cambridge is already in Fieldays mode.

The southern hemisphere’s largest agricultural event will hit Mystery Creek June 12-15, attracting an expected 130,000 plus visitors, over a thousand exhibitors and $490 million in sales revenue for businesses directly involved in Fieldays. On top of that, the Waikato region will likely see an additional $168million in spending from the thousands of visitors to the Waikato.

Already most accommodation providers in the wider Cambridge area, from Tamahere to Maungatautari, have completely booked out. Only two of the 42 accommodation providers we surveyed had a room available during Fieldays week.

“We could have booked out four times over,” said Shane Walsh at The Monastery. “We had to disappoint a lot of organisations that wanted to book all our rooms.”

Manager Anne Edgecombe at Podium Lodge, which was “100 per cent full”, said although it was a busy and intense time, “we thoroughly enjoy this special week.”

“Fieldays is undeniably a big week for everyone in the area,” she said.

Several accommodation providers regarded Fieldays as an ideal cash flow opportunity during

what is otherwise a quiet period in the region’s tourism industry.

“It’s very important to us for a real boost in winter when things are a wee bit quieter,” said Steph Cole, Mystery Creek Motel.

Now in its 51st year, over the past five decades Fieldays has had a total economic impact of $18billion.

Cambridge Business Chamber CEO Kelly Bouzaid recommended businesses make an effort to engage and welcome visitors in town for Fieldays, and consider their opening hours to ensure they maximise the opportunity presented by Fieldays.

“Fieldays offers Cambridge a significant boost to our local businesses,” she said, listing street front references, tailored offers, and digital visibility as ways to generate more spending and impulse purchases.

“Our businesses, in particular our retailers and hospitality, are our towns ambassadors over this period, directors of first impressions if you like, to show our community spirit and welcome Fieldays visitors into our town, giving directions and recommendations to our town’s hidden gems.”

Fresh Choice store manager Helen McHugh said the Leamington supermarket was already planning store specials, competitions and themed displays, expecting to see an eight to ten per cent spike in revenue after an

Last year’s Fieldays saw 130,866 through the gate over four days.

approximate 500-more customers visited the store during last year’s event.

“We just make sure we are fully stocked and fully staffed,” she said. “Any event which promotes Cambridge and the surrounding area is an advantage to our business.”

Countdown Cambridge store manager Tanya Lawrence expected to see more customers in the mornings and evenings during Fieldays, and would review and adjust team hours to align with those times.

“Fieldays is always an exciting time but it doesn’t significantly impact our trading other than customers changing their shopping times a bit so they can get to the event during the day,” she said.

Bouzaid wanted to remind residents that although the Fieldays brings increased traffic and parking congestion, “It’s only a short window,” she said, “and a little patience makes a world of difference for everyone involved showing kindness and the point of difference of our community.”

The Waikato Expressway south of Cambridge is expected to see significant traffic congestion during the evenings of Fieldays week, and Cambridge commuters heading to Hamilton should expect a slow crawl into the city.

Police will have a number of roading staff deployed around Mystery Creek and the wider area during the week, supporting the Traffic Management Plan led by event organisers.

Local police inspector Andrew Mortimore, area commander for Waikato West Police, said police numbers at the Fieldays site would increase by four officers this year, with a total of 16 officers on site each day.

Fire and Emergency New Zealand confirmed there would be eight volunteers from the organisation at a Fieldays exhibitor

site (site D64) promoting fire safety, in addition to four volunteer firefighters on hand, along with a fire appliance, in case of an emergency.

St John will also have 13 staff on site.

Fieldays organisers said Friday tends to be the busiest day of Fieldays, followed by Thursday then Saturday, with Wednesday the quietest day. Tickets, which are $30 for adults and $15 for 5-15 year olds, will be available at the gate, at the Cambridge i-SITE or through the Fieldays website.

Businesses in Cambridge are gearing up for Fieldays next week. Staff at Fresh Choice in Leamington say they’re looking forward to getting into the Fieldays spirit.

Local students join climate change march

By Viv Posselt

Fifteen Cambridge High School students joined several hundred others in Hamilton and thousands around the country who took part in the May 24 climate change strike.

The first student strike for climate change awareness was held internationally and across New Zealand on March 15. But because its message was overshadowed by the mosque attack in Christchurch, students around the country

arranged a second strike on May 24.

The CHS group had originally planned to gather outside the Cambridge Town Hall last Friday at the same time as the Cambridge Tree Trust was giving away trees, but they later decided to join other schools marching in central Hamilton.

One of the CHS organisers, Year 13 student Joe Dillon, said: “We wanted to show that students from other Waikato towns were marching in solidarity over this issue. We carried placards and

delivered a set of 11 demands that we would like to see implemented.”

The demands began by questioning Hamilton’s absence from the Local Government Leaders’ Climate Change Declaration, signed by almost 60 mayors and regional council chairs.

“We are striking from our schools to show the Hamilton City Council and Parliament the urgency that climate action requires,” it said.

“We need strong leadership from local government to signal to all

Marching with other student climate change protesters on May 24 were Cambridge High School students Molly Oldershaw, Holly Gascoigne, Drew Baldwin and Josie Palmer. Photo: Supplied.

Hamiltonians that significant action must be taken now.”

The Local Government Leaders’ Climate Change Declaration centres on the principle that those signing it acknowledge the existence of climate change. It calls on central government to work with local government in reducing and mitigating its effects; no specific measures are outlined.

Waipa is among the declaration’s signatories, but Hamilton Mayor Andrew King is not. He was reported in March as saying that while he agreed climate change needed to be addressed, he was reluctant to sign what he described as “an unknown document, with unknown costs, over an unknown period, written by unknown bureaucrats”.

He said Hamilton was already making a difference, and that what was needed was real action, “not some vague, feel-good document which doesn’t lay out any clear plans, costs, targets or commitments.”

His position remains unchanged.

The 11 demands called for the declaration of a climate emergency, setting a more ambitious timeframe for going carbon zero, supporting circular economies, toughening waste reduction policies, tighter measures around plastics and compostable waste, increasing indigenous vegetation cover, implementing mandatory programmes around conservation

and consumer education, and introducing free buses for those under 18 to reduce the number of single-car users driving to schools.

Joe said almost 90 CHS students wanted to join the May 24 strike, but most were not able to because of other commitments. Some of those who did take part took the whole day out of school, while others just took a few hours.

He said CHS students had a strong environmental focus. There was an active Environmental Committee at school and he was personally involved in two other groups - Pest Free Cambridge and Trees for Survival.

The momentum for change was increasing with each student protest event, he said. Another is being planned for September.

OBITUARY

A farewell to George Marshall Tree Trust giveaway a

Some older readers will know that Dr George Marshall, former principal of Cambridge High School, died last year, aged 93.

George’s predecessor, Mr J L South oversaw the transition from a district high school to a fully-fledged post-primary school. Then it was under George’s leadership, 1964 to 1972, that the school was transformed from a rather sleepy country school into a secondary school with academic and sporting achievements which compared favourably with the best in the country.

During his principalship, the school roll rose by more than 200, the ‘staying-on’ rate – remember that students could leave school then on their fifteenth birthday – and the size of the sixth and seventh forms (as they were called in those days) increased remarkably. The School Council, comprised of student representatives from each class along with a liberal studies course for senior students, were both introduced by George well before being widely adopted by NZ secondary schools. To be a member of his staff was a privilege and, mostly, a pleasure.

He would often end the early morning staff meeting with the words, “Thank you, ladies and gentlemen, that’s agreed then.” Then we would follow him into morning assembly, some of us not quite sure what we had just agreed to.

Cambridge High School was one of the first in the country to abolish corporal punishment. The welcome letter on the school’s website by the present principal

Mr Greg Thornton refers to a “progressive educational programme with traditional core values and high expectations of school achievement”. George would certainly agree with that. Many of his former students would be raising their caps right now. Except that he abolished school caps way back in the 1960s.

Vale, George.

NECK PAIN?

Real Hope For Long Term Sufferers

After twelve years in New Zealand, Teeter Hang-Ups have now established a long term track record with thousands of people throughout New Zealand.

Inversion New Zealand was started by Dave and Nancy Hare, Dave had suffered over twenty years of back pain from Degenerated Discs and had basically given up and decided to just live with it. To him surgery was never an option as long as he still could walk, there was hope.

“While on an overseas trip I discovered the Teeter Hang-Ups for the first time, when I tried it, the pain completely disappeared and I was pain free for about 30 minutes. I never would have believed it would fix me completely as specialists had told me it was irreversible, but I now knew I had a place to go every time I wanted some welcome relief”.

To my surprise the more I used the table the longer the pain stayed away, until after nearly three months the pain was completely gone, after spending large amounts of money on everything I could find I finally had found something that worked and it was something I had never heard of sorting it out for me in a very short period of time.

Inversion NZ Ltd 0800 62 62 83 www.inversionnz.co.nz

Once I was sure it really worked I decided to introduce Teeter into New Zealand to help spread awareness of the one thing that truly helped me.

Over the years I have helped tens of thousands of people in New Zealand get some serious relief and have seen results in not only backs, but necks, hips, knees, posture, circulation and lots more.

Inversion helps to: • Relieve Back Pain • Relieve Neck Pain • Relieve Muscle Tension • Stimulate Blood And Lymph Flow • Improve Posture • Increase Flexability

The results from what inversion does is nothing short of miraculous in areas we never thought possible, I believe there is a place for these in every single home regardless of if you have back issues or not.

We have introduced them into a number of schools which are using them for their special needs children, the blood to the brain helps these kids and the results are excellent. What this means for the aging population is that it helps maintain the health of the brain as we all get older.

I would not have believed the results had I not tried it for myself, and I would still be suffering to this day. This is why we travel the country showing people and letting them see for themselves how great it is and how life can be once your pain free again

IT IS PURE LOGIC AS TO HOW THE TEETER TABLE WORKS

Discs:

It uses gravity to apply traction, the traction gently opens the discs and as they open up they create suction, this suction draws fluid from the surrounding tissue back into the discs, re-hydrating them. This is the key! Discs do not have their own blood supply, they rely on trans fer of fluid from the surrounding tissue to keep them healthy and hydrated and over the years as discs get thinner with age, they lose the ability to take on fluid (just like squeezing a sponge) and they start to de-hydrate.

posture is one of the major cases of pain and is a major contributor to the deterioration of the body with age. A difference in leg length causes most of the hip and knee issues, as they continue to place uneven loads on the joints; similar to the wheels out of alignment on your car.

Trying to correct posture is extremely difficult due to muscle memory, as it constantly pulls the muscles back to where they were. At a level of 40 degrees or more on the Teeter, the muscle groups open up and eventually come back into alignment, using the table daily, does not allow the muscle memory to pull them back out of alignment and slowly the muscles start to lose their memory and go with the flow, allowing the body to come back into correct posture. Then using the table once a day will ensure it is kept there.

De-Hydrated discs are less flexible, they are harder, more prone to injury, they interfere with nerve roots creating pain and ultimately the de-hydration causes degen eration. The Teeter Inversion table slowly and gently brings the hydration back into the discs, plumping them up. It separates the nerve roots far more effectively and This is pure logic, if a machine is out of returns quality of life

Muscles: A lot of pain is muscular, when

muscles are stressed they become tight which restricts the flow of blood and lymph through the muscles so toxins build up, Co2 and Lactic Acid. Traction opens up the muscles, Rhythmic Traction, is a gentle rocking motion that stimulates circulation and encourages blood flow through the muscles, which clears the lactic acid into your lymph system where it stimulates lymph flow and deals with it. Most people with serious neck issues see a large improvement after only one treatment.

alignment it does not last long, the only difference between the body and a machine is that the body is constantly repairing itself, however if the wear and tear on the body is greater than the body’s ability to repair itself, it is a slow decline.

Better than a concrete pill…

By Caitlan Johnston

New Zealand’s alarming mental health and suicide statistics among men prompted a Cambridge breathing coach to launch the Man Revive Club.

Sandro Thiara Mota, who moved from Brazil to New Zealand in 2011, wanted to create a safe place for men to allow themselves to be vulnerable and to open up about

anything that might be weighing them down.

“In Latin America we are very open about our feelings and we communicate that. If we fight, we really fight. If we love, we love completely and if we’re sad then we cry,” said Sandro.

“In New Zealand men are just told to take a concrete pill, toughen up and get over it.”

The club began at the start of May

and it runs every Thursday night from Sandro’s home overlooking Lake Karapiro.

Sandro guides the men through a thought-provoking conversation, then a restorative breathing session that allows them to go deep with in themselves, he says. The men then take part in an ice bath submersion and on some occasions will end the night watching a documentary.

Garrit Van Dijk has been to two of Sandro’s club nights and says the restorative breathing work has helped him get on top of his anxiety.

“I think this type of club is long needed here in New Zealand where men come together and be vulnerable and accountable to A participant takes part in the ice bath immersion. each other.

Police explain changes

By Caitlan Johnston

The face of community policing is changing - but Waikato West Area Police Commander Andrew Mortimore says it still involves keeping a high profile and doing a lot in the community.

How police respond to crime – and ask victims to report it – has changed.

Police are spending $2 million to market a new non-emergency number it verbally calls “ten five” and which news stories have branded 10-5 – adding what could be a confusing hyphen.

The number for non-emergency calls is 105.

Police have also told victims of crime which

Andrew Mortimore says community policing is changing as technology advances.

is not urgent they can email their reports online to 105.police.govt.nz .

So for Cambridge residents, the question looms: is there any point in having a community police station when police want crime reported on-line or through a call centre?

Andrew Mortimore says yes.

“Staff are visibly present; I’ve been walking down the street myself and I know staff do it because I’ve had feedback.

“Technology is changing and we need to present different technological options.”

He says nothing about reporting a crime to a station has changed and public members are still welcome to go directly to the station at 18 Dick Street.

“This station has an enthusiastic and committed police force who are here to make a difference in the community and the opportunity is there for members to get alongside them and work with them to make Cambridge safe.”

He says the changes, which take advantage of the digital era, are for the good and free up staff so that they are not spending a lot of time taking reports.

“When people call 111 for non-emergency situations it clogs up the system and puts a lot of pressure on it. We are streamlining a service that allows people to report from their home so that they aren’t keeping staff held up.”

He has also defended the fact that one of the two police staff to have been added to the ranks has not agreed to allow his or her name to be made public.

“That’s the individual’s right. I don’t think that just because an officer works in a community that they have to have their photo and names published.

“This doesn’t have any effect on the capability of that officer and how they work.”

Cambridge is supported by nine response officers and one response sergeant who are responsible for responding to 111 calls, a community liaison officer who is responsible for developing long-term preventative plans for crime trends in the community and who works alongside community and neighbourhood support groups, one youth aid officer and one school community officer.

Andrew Mortimore says all the officers in Cambridge and some from out of town are all working together to keep the community safe.

“It doesn’t mean other officers aren’t doing work in the community. For example, when a youth aid officer does work within in a school

FRIDAY MAY 31, 2019

they are impacting factors of the community.

“The police here are doing what we expect them to do, they are out patrolling the streets looking for suspicious activities or drunk drivers, but they can’t be everywhere.”

For the past three months Cambridge Police Station has also had night shift staff on Friday and Saturday nights providing the community with 24-hour patrolling.

The Waikato District is expected to get a significant number of new police officers at the end of this year, but with two additions recently for Cambridge it is not anticipated there will be more.

Mortimore says that it is a matter of looking at all the communities in the district and what each’s needs are.

Fancy a coffee…

By Caitlan Johnston

Police are going head to head with the public – over a cup of coffee.

Their Coffee with a Cop initiative brings police officers and community members together over warm drink to discuss any issues or queries each other may have.

They were in Cambridge last Friday at Absolute Coffee House to catch up with community members.

Topics discussed included road safety, police numbers and the presence of police in Cambridge.

Cambridge Community board member Philip Coles went along to get an update on officer numbers in Cambridge. He piloted a petition three years ago aiming to get the numbers in raised.

“They are back up to where they were three

to four years ago which is really great to see considering we are a growing town,” he said.

“Community members have been worried about numbers being down, so it was really good to see them out there doing this event.”

Waikato West Area Police Commander Andrew Mortimore said the feedback he gathered from the event indicated that the community is happy with the police presence.

“The people here are stoked with our police presence and they have been positive about our police work within the community.”

A dog handler and his dog Justice attended the event and a recruitment officer who was on hand to answer any questions about joining the police force.

Marie Robinson travelled from Te Kuiti to chat over a coffee. She wanted her daughter, who is trying to join the police, to talk firsthand to the recruiter. Marie’s name was also

drawn out of the hat and she took home a soft toy - a plush police dog.

“This event is good because we get to see cops mixing with the public and I think that is what needs to be happening more,” she said.

Colin Schimanski said it was a “great event - and I think every town should have something like this”.

“It’s a friendly approach where we can share some of our views. I have hearing disabilities, so I like to talk to them about that.”

Coffee with a Cop began in the Waikato about two years ago and circulates throughout the district and is held every six to eight weeks.

The next public police event in Cambridge will be an open meeting at Cambridge Marie Robinson was the lucky winner of a plush police dog Middle School on June 18 at 6pm. toy after her name was drawn out of a hat.

Trustee elections now open

By Sophie Iremonger

Cambridge parents can now have their say on who will be on their child’s school board of trustees (BoT).

The nomination process closed on Friday, May 24 at 12pm, and the voting period is now open, closing at noon on Friday, June 7.

Some schools in Cambridge won’t have an election because they received the same number of nominations as they had spaces available. This was the case for Te Miro School, which had four spaces available and received four nominations, and Leamington School, which received five nominations for five spaces.

These nominees will automatically be

instated into their school’s board of trustees, in accordance with rules set out by the Ministry of Education, which state: “If you have three nominations a board can be formed, even if you have advertised for more than three positions. It is then up to the incoming board to decide how it will fill the vacancies. No voting will need to occur.”

Cambridge Middle School received three nominations for its five trustee spaces, in which case the three nominated trustees can “co-opt” or appoint additional trustees to fill the remaining spaces.

Karapiro School will not require an election.

The school’s board of trustees resigned in December, and Chris Calver​was appointed as commissioner in January. His appointment

doesn’t have a specific time frame.

Meanwhile Hautapu, Kaipaki, Horahora, Roto-O-Rangi, Goodwood, St Peter’s Catholic and Cambridge Primary schools, and Cambridge High School, will all hold BoT elections.

Karl Thornton, the outgoing chairman of the Cambridge High School Board of Trustees, confirmed he would not be seeking reappointment to the school’s board, citing work and sporting commitments.

“It has been a very rewarding experience,” he said. “This board has made some significant contributions to the school over the last three years.”

Some of the highlights from his tenure, he said, included gaining approval for a new

arts block and the re-cladding and weatherproofing of existing buildings, as well as developing the school’s navigator strategy, introducing an outcomes-based appraisal system, and the appointment of the school’s new principal Greg Thornton.

Karl acknowledged Raewyn Jones and Richard Younger for their service, who also did not seek re-election. All members of school trustee boards will have to be reelected again.

Voting papers were sent out this week to those who registered to vote. To find out more about BoT elections visit www.trusteeelection.co.nz. Voting results for most schools will be announced on June 13 with new boards taking office on June 14.

National award for green-fingered group

By Sophie Iremonger

A “spectacular” garden in Cambridge has earned national honours. The Bupa St Kilda retirement village’s community garden was announced as the “Best Communal Veggie Garden” in the annual Bupa Retirement Villages 2019 gardening competition this month.

The judges, taken back by the variety and sheer scope of the project, described it as a “spectacular” garden. Established towards the end of 2018, the garden boasts 25 different varieties of vegetables and is completely organic.

“I think it’s the composting and the whole organic process really,” said Ann Norris. “It’s quite important at this age not to be eating any toxins. We don’t spray or use any chemicals.”

Ann initially came up with the idea to create a much bigger project than the existing St Kilda village garden, and worked amongst a team of residents to design and establish the garden in a decent area of land where buildings couldn’t be erected under pylons.

“The scope is much better on this one.

We’re lucky to have this spare land which is amazing, which other villages don’t have,” she said. “We’re just chuffed (with the award).

We worked really hard.”

The group of nine gardeners beat out 31 other Bupa St Kilda village gardens.

They credit the work of each team member, especially Merv Taylor’s dedicated watering regime, for its success.

“People just do what needs to be done and it works really well,” said Ann. When they first started the garden with a

few planter boxes, nothing seemed to grow.

They made compost using horse manure from a neighbouring farm, and it did the trick, bringing worms to the area too. They then attracted bees – pollinators – using flowering plants, and even propagated their own seedlings.

Within a few months they had established an expansive garden with wind-protection walls, a seating area and a garden shed for seedling work. Keith Norris and Merv Taylor even built a sales trolley for distributing the produce amongst the village.

“They’ve put so much hard work into it, it’s quite extraordinary the work they have done and the produce they’ve got out of it,” said Chris Thomas, the village manager. “They have a lot of knowledge and enthusiasm, they do a lot of their own propagating and composting on-site and the results have been extraordinary.”

The group described the nine-month venture as a learning journey, sharing knowledge amongst each other and picking up tips where they could. “We’ve learned what to plant more of and what to plant less of,” said Merv, as the team recalls planting a whole packet of cabbage seeds which resulted

in a hoard of cabbages.

Beverly White’s careful procuring of kumara plants from old kumaras came to the rescue when plants from the store “turned their toes up”. Once planted in the team’s robust compost, they took off. “You could hear Beverly screaming all over the village when she dug her first kumara,” Ann recalled. “It was 2.3 kilos, just one kumara!”

“Everything’s been so good, not just the kumara,” Beverly said. “It just seemed everything was right this year, we’ll have to keep our fingers crossed that it will happen again.”

The group had a few simple tips for keeping a great garden: • Keep on top of it – “Don’t let things get out of hand, keep at it,” says Ann. • Regular watering – “Keep an eye on the watering, especially when it’s dry,” said Merv. “We have automatic sprinklers come on each morning, and then just hose around the outside.”

• Composting – It’s “absolutely vital”, says Ann, and horse manure seems to be the secret.

• Planting – Be adventurous, try new things, and always plant plenty of potatoes.

Cambridge genealogists enjoyed their recent meeting which featured a miscellany of presentations from members.

The theme was putting people in a historical time and place. One member told of a great grand-uncle who moved from Christchurch to develop a farm in the wilds of Gisborne.

Another member discovered a wealth of information in the Cambridge Museum about a family, while a third member explained about her recent trip to meet relatives in

Chile and Peru discovered via DNA. The final speaker gave an illustrated presentation about ancestors in Yorkshire in the 1700s and 1800s with an emphasis on non-conformist meeting places. Long-time researchers and new members alike appreciated the information shared.

Dog warning welcomed “Off-lead doesn’t mean out-of-control. We want to make sure everyone can enjoy our off-lead exercise areas.”

The council is also urging dog owners to clean up after their dogs. Bins are provided for owners.

Owners are legally required to control and clean up after their dogs in off-lead areas and Mr Tutty warned owners would face enforcement action, and a fine of up to $300, if the council did not see an improvement.

By Caitlan Johnston

A physiotherapy student living in Cambridge is welcoming the Waipā Council’s reminder that owners are responsible for their dogs in public spaces including designated off-lead areas.

In a recent media release the council said it was prompted to remind owners to control their dogs in the wake a spate of complaints.

Jessica Totman lives close to the Leamington dog park and believes her cat Calico was attacked by a dog. Calico was found at home with a seven-centimetre gash on her stomach.

“I always see dogs roaming onto our property and down this end of the street there are always dogs off their leashes, they come from the dog park,” said Jessica.

“It is not hard to put your dog on a leash.

If it doesn’t want to be on a leash, then take it to the dog park and actually watch it.”

In the 12 months to June 2018 the council received 176 complaints related to dog attacks, rushing or aggressive dog behaviours.

Environmental services team leader Karl Tutty said while this recorded number of complaints is typical, more than normal have referred to a dog exercise area.

“Council has recorded several complaints of dogs rushing people and a significant incident between two dogs in an off-lead area. Council also impounded a dog loose in public and found its owner unaware in the nearby exercise area.’’

He said owners who were not confident they could control their dog or were likely to become distracted while supervising them would be best advised to keep them on a Jessica Totman believes her cat was mauled by an unsupervised dog. leash.

Teachers from five different schools gathered on Victoria St Wednesday morning for a “day of action”.

By Sophie Iremonger

A dozen teachers and a few passionate children gathered in town on Wednesday, mustering support from the public as they advocated for serious improvements to the education system.

“We don’t refer to it as a strike, we call it a day of action because we want to get the message out there that the education system is in crisis, and the government needs to do something about it,” said Colin Wood, Cambridge High’s branch chair of the PostPrimary Teachers Association (PPTA), citing the huge shortfall of teachers coming into the industry, a lack of resources, 60-plus hour work weeks and falling relative income as some of the many issues.

“What we want is exactly what parents want. We want parents on board to put

pressure on the government to actually make things better, not just in terms of our salaries but in terms of making the education system one which is good for New Zealand.”

The group went on to join a region-wide gathering of teachers in Hamilton, marching down Victoria Street before holding a mass rally at Garden Place.

1229 schools were closed nationwide as 50,000 teachers took part in strikes around the country, the largest in history, after the Employment Relations Authority failed to provide a date for facilitated talks with the Ministry of Education.

To date, secondary school teachers have rejected three pay offers while primary school teachers have rejected four.

The PPTA said further strike action could begin as early as next week if pay talks aren’t resolved.

Grey Power supports changes Cambridge Grey Power president Val Massey says the changes the Government is making for seniors through its Wellbeing Budget include some which have long been advocted by Grey Power New Zealand.

An announcement made at the May 20 New Zealand Grey Power Federation annual conference in Wellington said $7.7 million had been set aside for seniors in the Government’s Wellbeing Budget. Deputy Prime Minister Winston Peters and Seniors Minister Tracey Martin told delegates the money will go into upgrading the SuperGold Card, funding digital literacy training for seniors, and cover changes to ACC that will better support superannuitants who are injured.

The measures were given the thumbs up by local Grey Power leadership. Both president Val Massey and secretary Dave Wilson were at the meeting, and said much of what was being addressed had been on Grey Power’s radar for some time.

“The upgrade to the SuperGold Card was something we have been advocating for some time,” Val said. “There are still people who don’t know what the card offers … this will make it far easier for card-holders to access the information.”

The SuperGold Card is a discounts and concessions card for seniors and veterans.

The new funding will cover the building of a new digital platform for the card, set to be launched before the end of the year, and create a new SuperGold app linked to the

Cambridge Grey Power president and secretary, Val Massey and Dave Wilson respectively, attended the recent Grey Power Federation conference in Wellington.

website. The idea is to put data around using the card and updated information on where discounts can be found within easy reach of seniors.

Val said the meeting was told that seniors are the largest purchasing demographic of New Zealand, and that they are adapting to and embracing technology faster than anyone else.

“We also heard that 40 percent of seniors have incomes less than $100 a week from sources other than superannuation. That makes it really important for seniors to access the discounts, and for more businesses to come on board and make discounts available. Seniors are a powerful and growing purchasing bloc.”

Delegates were told that the Budget contains $600,000 for the provision of computer training to seniors who needed to upgrade their technology skills.

Changes to ACC, set

to begin on July 1, will mean eligible seniors will no longer have to choose between receiving NZ Superannuation or ACC weekly payments. Older people who are entitled to weekly ACC compensation for a personal injury will be able to receive those payments along with their NZ Superannuation or the Veteran’s Pension for up to two years. Delegates were told that change would allow an injured person’s financial situation to more closely reflect their income.

Among other topics raised was pensioner housing, the downgrading of postal and Kiwi Bank services and health issues for seniors, particularly around dentistry.

A mandate was given for Federation to lobby the Ministry of Health to undertake a study in which rural mobile dental clinics also visit aged care facilities to provide dental hygiene services and referral to dental services as needed.

Sewing project wins award for second time

By Viv Posselt

An initiative designed to teach Vanuatu women sewing skills and help them lead more independent lives has just won an international award for the Cambridge Altrusa Club for the second consecutive year.

The club’s Threads Across the Pacific project was awarded the Dr Nina Fay Calhoun International Relations Award and US$100 for Best International Project at the May 17-19 Altrusa District 15 conference in Te Awamutu. It picked up the same award last year.

Cambridge also received the Governor’s Award this year in recognition of outstanding club achievement in all areas of operation.

As a result of its success, the Threads Across the Pacific project will feature at the Altrusa International Convention taking place in Reno, Nevada in July.

Altrusa is an international non-profit service organisation with a network of community-based clubs. New Zealand falls

under Altrusa International District 15.

Cambridge Altrusa president Jenny Shaw said the club had enjoyed a good year across the boards.

“We’ve been active in a range of projects throughout the year, over and above the ongoing work we do for the Threads Across the Pacific project,” she said. “We do a lot with the residents at Selwyn St Andrews, for example, and also work with literacy.”

Threads Across the Pacific grew out of something started by Tauranga Altrusa member Caroline Mason several years ago.

She and several other Kiwi women took fabric to Vanuatu with a view to teaching local women sewing and thereby enabling them to start their own businesses. The leftover fabric ended up in the hands of De-ane Busby, then president of Cambridge Altrusa.

She described the project as a ‘hand-up, not hand-out’ initiative that sends sewing machines, fabrics and threads to Vanuatu schools where Altrusa volunteers teach sewing to the young women.

Local members have supported the project for the last couple of years.

“We’ve just continued it this year,” said De-ane. “We’ve kept going with the fundraising … bought more material and

Mosaic Choir audiences enjoy many different styles and songs, often performed in several languages. Musical director and conductor for the past eight years, Brooke Baker, said programmes compiled in conjunction with the choir’s accompanist Cindy Xia were intended to have as broad an appeal as possible.

“We try to make sure that there is something for everyone in the programme.

Our choir members are very diverse; they range in age from high school students to grandparents. These concerts are really about celebrating being part of a group that just enjoys singing.”

Katrina said membership had grown from around 30 to almost 70 in the past five or six years. Most were from Cambridge and its surrounds.

“We regularly perform at rest homes and retirement villages, and have taken part in the Tulip Festival, Waikato Show, the Cambridge Autumn and Christmas festivals, Anzac Day services, the Tamahere Christmas Festival and the Hospice Remembrance

This year’s Mosaic Choir annual concert programme will also be taken to Te Awamutu, with a performance scheduled for the evening of June 28 at the Te Awamutu Rugby Sports and Recreation Club. Tickets for that concert are from Te Awamutu PaperPlus.

Also on the cards is a new project which will see the Mosaic Choir organise a Variety Charity Concert in the Cambridge Town Hall on August 31 in aid of Waikato Kids in Need.

A number of local artists have pledged their performance at that event for free.

Concerts featuring the Mosaic Choir are always sell-out events, so booking ahead for June 15 is advised. Door sales on the night will be available if tickets are not sold out prior.

Popular Mosaic Choir concert coming up

By Viv Posselt

Another annual concert featuring the everpopular Mosaic Waikato Modern Choir is set to charm local audiences next month.

The two performances at Cambridge’s St Andrew’s Church on Saturday June 15 will comprise a short one-hour programme starting at 2pm, and a full two-hour programme from 5pm.

Tickets for both are available now from Cambridge PaperPlus, from choir members and via treasurer Katrina Richards (treasurer@mosaicchoir.com).

Filling the guest artist slot this year is Cambridge songstress Kirsty Young, who has recently completed her studies at Waikato University and is keen to pursue a career in stage musical productions. Kirsty has performed locally at events such as the Cambridge Autumn Festival and has held lead roles in Hamilton Operatic Society productions. She was a recent soloist in the Superstars show at the city’s Clarence Street Theatre.

New choir members are welcome – the choir meets every Tuesday night from 7-9pm at the Cambridge Community Centre in Taylor Street.

A 13-5 half time lead was cut to 13-12 early in the second half as Old Boys outflanked Hautapu’s defence outside on several occasions.

Hautapu responded with 30 minutes of superb rugby, helped by real impact off the bench from Anton Milne, Matt Caldwell, Dion Berryman, Mike Bayswater and Andrew Viane.

Old Boys scored two long range consolation tries in the last five minutes as Hautapu’s concentration and structure on defence wavered.

Captain Jono Armstrong at number eight had a huge game on both attack and defence and was awarded player of the day.

Alex Thompson dominated the line outs and Turoa Stephens was strong in the tight.

Development team Hautapu’s Development side paid the penalty for some crucial errors in a 22-18 loss to Old Boys.

Old Boys started the game strongly and put Hautapu under a lot of pressure for the first 15 minutes, but the Hautapu boys showed good line speed and shut down everything Old Boys could throw at them.

This strong ‘D’ forced a turnover and Hautapu worked down field and were rewarded with a penalty. Old Boys forced

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.

Maunga Mission wraps up

By Sophie Iremonger

Eighty-six people trekked their way from one side of Maungatautari Mountain to the other on Sunday, competing in a multisport race which raised $860 for the ecological island Sanctuary Mountain Maungatautari.

The Maunga Mission challenged competitors to take on a 72km adventure, cycling to the southern side of Maungatautari, running over the mountain, cycling down to Lake Karapiro and paddling the final 10km to the finish line.

Eight-time competitor Patrick Foley had hoped to complete the event within five hours, and finished just 11 seconds past his goal. But he was just happy to finish, he said, and see his son Jack do well.

Competing in the Full Maunga event for the second time, Jack Foley, 16, finished ahead of all other secondary school competitors and was fifth overall with a time of four hours and 52 minutes.

Despite having an extra kilometre to run this year, due to a new route out of the mountain enclosure, he managed to shave about half an hour off last year’s time.

His St Peter’s school mate Hector Magillivray passed him on the mountain run, but after succumbing to some minor gut problems he finished eighth overall, behind Patrick in sixth place.

“We all had a great day,” said Patrick.

Competitors in the shorter Maunga Mission divisions get ready to race at the start line on Tari Rd.

“The fog made for a cool damp start, but we ran into the sun going over Maungatautari – then back into the fog!”

“Jack finished the first bike just behind me but, predictably, passed me for good on the early slopes of the mountain.”

In first place in the Full Maunga race was Hawkes Bay elite multisport athlete Scott McDonald finishing in a staggering three hours and 53 minutes.

Whakatane’s Tiahna Braithwaite was the fastest woman, finishing in five

hours and 53 minutes.

Peter Melling was presented with the Malcolm Dunning Award for being the oldest competitor at the event. At 70 years old he finished with a time of six hours and 14 minutes. Cambridge local Malcolm Dunning passed away two years ago and was involved in every Maunga Mission event.

FRIDAY MAY 31, 2019

Premier cycling event comes to Waipa Cambridge has been confirmed as the new host of New Zealand’s premier cycling event, the Vantage Elite & U23 Road National Championships.

It was announced last week that the championships will move here after a four-year tenure in the Hawkes Bay, and will be the new

flagship event of next year’s RIDE Cycling Festival, being held in Waipa from February 13 to 16.

Cycling New Zealand and RIDE Festival organisers have committed to linking the events over three years, with an option to extend for a further year. Cycling New Zealand CEO Jacques Landry said

it was important for the integrity of the competition to change its destination every three to four years.

“Changing the location means national titles are contested on a new course, on different terrain, ensuring variety and a fair approach that doesn’t favour one type of rider over another in the long term,” he said. “It reinvigorates the event for the riders and exposes a whole new audience to top level road cycling.”

It was also announced that the championships will shift from the first weekend in January to mid-February, a decision taken after consultation with professional and domestic riders, coaches and officials and supported by the Road and Track Council. It will give riders more time to gain race fitness through competing in key national and UCI events across Australasia in January before contesting national titles.

Jacques Landry said: “Ultimately, we anticipate the new date will enable the strongest possible field Welcoming New Zealand’s premier cycling event to Cambridge next year are, from left, Cycling New Zealand events director Janette Douglas, RIDE Festival deputy chair Jennifer of primed riders to be on the start line for the Elite Roads.

with RIDE Festival allows us to host the Vantage Elite and U23 Road National Championships as part of a wider celebration of cycling that connects with the community.”

The championships event, which includes time trial and road races, has gained a strong following as the headline event of the Hawkes Bay Summer Cycling Carnival.

Prior to being held in Hawkes Bay, the championships were in Christchurch.

RIDE Festival chairman, Simon Perry, said the festival was “delighted” to be given the opportunity to host the championships locally.

“We feel that the event aligns perfectly with our own objectives by showcasing the best of New Zealand cycling to engage and inspire New Zealanders. We look forward to delivering the event as part of the wider festival which will offer a range of events for spectators, community engagement and recreational cyclists alike.”

Waipa District Mayor Jim Mylchreest also welcomed the

championships’ move to Waipa.

“We’ve got a proud tradition or nurturing world-class sports people and it’s fantastic for young people in our community to see these talented athletes in action as part of this outstanding event.”

More details on the event will be released in the coming months.

Good Sports gives bad behaviour the boot

change initiative” is about creating positive sporting experiences for children by supporting and educating coaches, teachers, parents and sports administrators.

“Good Sports is not against winning or losing; it is not against competition,” Katie said.

“What Good Sports is not promoting is a win-at-all-costs environment where only the best matter, where the voice of the child is not heard, and where we are pushing our children to specialise in one sport at a young age.”

Sport Waikato CEO and former All Black Matthew Cooper said Good Sports’ point of difference was its focus on developing “Good Sports champions” in the community to role model behaviour change.

“We believe every young person in sport deserves a climate of development where coaches, parents and other adult influencers in their lives define success as effort and improvement, include everyone so they feel they matter, share control with children, design for learning-through-play and enable children to have a variety of experiences,” he said.

Sport Waikato is currently rolling out Good Sports across the region. For more information about the initiative check out @ goodsportnz on Facebook or email katieh@sportwaikato.org.nz.

Carley Hancke has been coaching sports teams since she was a teenager and has stacks of great memories – but there’s one incident she remembers for all the wrong reasons.

It happened when she was coaching a youth team, and parents on the sideline began belittling players.

She ignored the behaviour hoping it would stop, but it escalated to the point where one parent became angry and physically intimidated her.

“That behaviour made me very uncomfortable was completely against the culture that I was building in my team,” she said. “If it happened again I would stand up straight away and say, please don’t be negative around this space because it’s not okay.

“I work really hard to build a positive culture of competition and participation within the teams I coach so that all children have a great experience. When parents get annoyed and angry on the sideline their children get embarrassed and don’t want to come back.”

Now teaching at Leamington School, Carley is backing the recent introduction of the Good Sports programme.

RDA down memory lane

Cambridge Riding for the Disabled were recently doing renovations of their clubrooms and came across this photo.

RDA member Clive Garrish explained, “We came across this wonderful old photograph, but sadly none of our members or riders recognise any of the people in the picture!”

He tells Cambridge News readers, “If you do recognise anyone, we’d love to hear about it as I’m sure things have changed dramatically since their time.”

The recent renovations to the club room will establish a separate feed room for horses away from the manager’s office, as well as clear access to the storeroom. The group will hold a “Jumbo Garage Sale” in the near future to sell all of their excess horse equipment that gets cleared out during the project – saddles, bridles, bits,

stirrups and more. Keep an eye out for more details.

On another note, Cambridge RDA now has concept plans drawn up for its Sensory Trail, and the first section will be established in the near future, with completion set for summer.

“Our spread in a recent Cambridge News was most welcome and a lot of interest was generated resulting in more volunteer applications and donations,” said Clive.

“However as always, we would love to have more volunteers either helping with the horses, riders or maintenance of our site.”

To contact the Cambridge RDA about volunteering, or if you recognise anyone in the photo, email cambridge@rda.org.nz or phone 021 902892.

FRIDAY MAY 31, 2019

with Jan Bilton

Inviting innovations

The recent inaugural Feast Waikato proved beyond doubt that the small food producers in New Zealand have talent. From award-winning boutique butters, ferments and cheeses to brews, honeys and ice cream, these dedicated entrepreneurs are at the forefront of the country’s culinary discoveries.

Rory and Helen O’Brien of Hunter & Gather Bee Co (huntandgatherbeeco.com) are a great example.

Wanting to be part of an industry that had a more positive effect on the environment and the future of their young family, they ditched their jobs, sold their Cromwell house, shifted to Raglan, bought some bee hives, moved into the ‘bee’ shed and started work. Their first year’s bounty was a ‘sweet success’ — a sell-out. The couple concentrate on producing specialised honeys such as their awardwinning, malty Rewarewa (NZ honeysuckle) honey.

Then there are the three mums who had a passion for raw, unpasteurised, fermented foods such as kimchi, sauerkraut and — wait for it — fermented pesto. Their GoodBugs (goodbugs.co.nz) process brings a whole new taste sensation to pesto that can be added to muffins, dips and is delicious served with pasta.

Cajeta (a Mexican sauce) is a very new product from Cilantro artisan cheesemakers, Monica Salerno and Jenny Oldham (cilantrocheese.co.nz). Prepared from goat’s milk, it is slow-cooked with mixed spices and sugar. The resulting delight has a cream-cheese like texture with explosive flavour. Drizzle it over ice cream, spread on pancakes, stir into coffee or enjoy straight from the spoon.

MUESLI & HONEY SCONES I used the Muesli Company’s Macadamia Nut (themueslicompany.co.nz) variety and chopped the larger nuts. When cutting the scones, press straight down rather than twist. Twisting can make for uneven scones. The buttermilk (bellefield.co.nz) was from the Cambridge Farmer’s market.

2 1/2 cups self-raising flour 25g chilled butter, chopped 1 cup buttermilk 1 tablespoon malty-flavoured honey eg Rewarewa 1/2 cup roasted muesli extra butter or spread and honey for serving Preheat the oven to 220°C. Line a baking tray with baking paper.

Place the flour in a large bowl. Rub the butter in with your fingertips. Add the buttermilk and honey and mix evenly. Add the muesli. Tip onto a floured bench and knead gently to fully incorporate the muesli.

Pat or roll into a 2cm (approx.) thick oblong. Using a 5-6cm biscuit cutter, form rounds of the dough.

Press the scraps together gently and cut more rounds. Place about 1cm apart on the baking tray.

Bake for 15-20 minutes until browned. The tops can be brushed with a little honey after removing.

Serve with butter or spread and honey. Makes 12.

CIDER ONION SOUP

I sliced the onions using my food processor. No tears! Plum cider (goodgeorge.co.nz) provides delicious flavour depth to this soup.

25g butter 1kg onions, thinly sliced 1 tablespoon sugar 3 each: bay leaves, thyme sprigs salt and pepper to taste 330g can plum cider 1 litre vegetable or chicken stock Topping: 4-8 thick slices sourdough baguette or similar 3-4 tablespoons butter 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese chopped parsley To make the soup, melt the butter in a large heavy-based saucepan. Add the onions, sugar and herbs and mix well.

Season. Cook, uncovered on mediumlow heat until browned, about 35 minutes. Stir occasionally.

Add the cider and simmer until reduced by half. Add the stock, bring to the boil and simmer for 30 minutes or until the onions are very soft. Remove the bay leaves and thyme stalks.

Before serving, turn the grill to high. Spread the baguette slices with butter and grill both sides until golden. Top with the cheese and grill until just melted. Garnish with parsley. Serve on the soup. Serves 4 as a main.

CROISSANT CROSTINI WITH FERMENTED PESTO

The sharpness of GoodBugs fermented pesto balances the richness of the croissants.

2 croissants, halved 2 tablespoons butter 50g garlic & chive gouda cheese or similar, grated 4 tablespoons fermented pesto fresh herbs to garnish Preheat the oven to 180°C. Lightly butter the cut sides of the croissants. Place on a baking tray and bake for 5 minutes. Top with the cheese and continue baking until the cheese is just melted. Dot with the pesto. Serves 2 as a snack or nibbles with drinks.

Winter Warmth FEATURE

FRIDAY MAY 31, 2019

ARE YOU READY FOR WINTER?

Insulation becoming compulsory The healthy homes standards include new requirements for insulation. It is now compulsory for all new tenancy agreements to have Insulation Statements. As from July 1, ceiling and underfloor insulation will be compulsory in all rental homes where it is reasonably practicable to install. The insulation must comply with the regulations and be safely installed.

Failure by landlords to comply with the regulations will be akin to committing an

unlawful act and may be liable for a penalty of up to $4,000. Landlords may be eligible for help from their local council. Some councils are allowing homeowners to add the cost of insulation to their rates and pay it back over about nine years.

Landlords who have installed new insulation since 2016 should already meet the 2008 Building Code, so they won’t need to do anything further when the Healthy Homes Standards take effect.

The cute wee fire with

a big heart

both are in good condition, then landlords have not been required to take action.

Under the Healthy Homes Standards, all rental properties will need to have insulation which meets the 2008 Building Code, or is at least 120mm thick.

Before investing in a heating system, think carefully about your home insulation. Does it need improving? If your house is badly insulated, you'll spend a lot of money buying a powerful system to heat it. Insulation is one of the most efficient ways to save energy since it keeps your home warm in the winter and cool in the summer. It is also useful to reduce noise pollution. A well insulated house is very energy efficient and will need very little additional heating and cooling.

How much money you will save by insulating your home will depend on different factors like the type of insulation and the size of your house. The age of your house also has an influence. These days new homes must meet insulation standards, but older houses can have serious issues and often require much more work to improve their efficiency.

According to the government agency ECCA, the priority for insulating your home should be ceiling and underfloor, followed by walls.

Bulk and loose-fill are the two most common types of ceiling insulation. Bulk insulation fits between or rolls over ceiling joists. Loose-fill is blown in.

There are two types of bulk ceiling insulation; segments, which fit between the joists above your ceiling, and blankets that are designed to be rolled out across the top of the ceiling and the joists. Covering ceiling joists prevents extra heat loss. If you’re topping up existing insulation, ECCA recommends blanket insulation as it’s easier to install. It can simply

be rolled over the top of what’s already there.

The drawback is that it can make it harder for a person to move around the ceiling space.

If segments between joists are going to be installed, they need to meet the higher R-value rating to make up for the heat that gets lost through the timber.

When there is not enough roof space to move around and install bulk insulation, a loosefill solution may be needed. Loose-fill is not used in EECA’s insulation programme as its performance can be variable.

Insulation – a must-have

Choosing ceiling insulation

Pop him in your mobile home, rural cottage or holiday batch or even in front of your old open fire.

Sparky will chuckle away & brighten your day NE

However, landlords who didn’t previously need to insulate under the current requirements, may now need to do so under the Healthy Homes Standards. Currently, if the property already has ceiling insulation which is at least 70mm thick and underfloor insulation, and

Health and Wellbeing

Winter ailments Flu or cold – do you know the difference? A cold can make you feel lousy for a few days, but it’s a milder respiratory illness than flu.

Flu can make you feel quite ill for a few days to weeks and in some instances can result in serious health problems and hospitalizations.

Symptoms can develop quickly and may include a sore throat, fever, headache, muscle aches and soreness, congestion and a cough.

Although most flu symptoms gradually improve over a week, it’s not uncommon to feel run down for another week or more.

Pneumonia can be complication of the flu, particularly in the young, elderly, or people with lung or heart problems. If you notice shortness of breath, let your doctor know.

Skin cancer checks

Check your skin regularly and consult your doctor if you notice a new skin lesion or a mole or freckle that’s changed. If you’re fair skinned, work or spend a lot of time outdoors, have a lot of moles or a family history of skin cancer, talk to your GP about whether you need to have regular skin checks.

Another common sign of pneumonia is fever that comes back after having been gone for a day or two.

Cold and flu viruses enter your body through the mucous membranes of the nose, eyes, or mouth. Typically, influenza is transmitted through the air by coughs or sneezes, Women between 45-69 are eligible for a free creating aerosols containing the virus.

Cup tie biggest challenge for the Reds

By Josh Easby

Cambridge face their biggest challenge of their football season this weekend with a sudden death cup tie against one of the strongest teams in the north. The Reds face top Auckland side Glenfield Rovers in the second round of the ISPS Handa Chatham Cup – the sport’s oldest club competition.

The match at John Kerkhof Park kicks off at the earlier-than-usual time of 2pm on Saturday.

Glenfield play in the Northern League’s Premier Division – two tiers higher than Cambridge – and will be hot favourites to win the match. However, Cambridge have a reputation for punching above their weight in the Chatham Cup in recent seasons and coach Paul Richardson expects his players to rise to the occasion.

“It’s a long weekend, we’re playing at home and we hope a big crowd will come along to support us,” he said.

While Cambridge has a strong recent record in the cup, the club still has not progressed past the third round in its 71-year history. It has reached that stage – where only 32 teams remain in the competition – on 12 occasions.

The cup tie will provide a break for the Reds from Northern League competition in which their campaign for the second division title remains intact despite the Reds losing a seven-goal thriller to new divisional leaders Manurewa.

While Cambridge were losing 4-3 at John Kerkhof Park last weekend, title rivals Claudelands Rovers were being beaten 3-0 at home by the in-form Metro FC who have swept into fourth place. It means the race for promotion to division one – two clubs will be promoted – has widened to at least four sides in what’s turning out to be an even competition.

Daniel Clarkin (8) sweeps the ball into the empty Manurewa net to open the Reds’ scoring.

Rewa took the lead in the 20th minute through David Hough. Cambridge levelled in the 29th minute when a ball into the Rewa box rattled around with Josh Clarkin and Clark both making contact before Daniel Clarkin sidefooted the ball into an empty net.

As half-time approached, Cambridge went to sleep, allowing Rewa to score twice in as many minutes. Troy Christophers grabbed the first in the 42nd minute and then Dylan LaingMcConnell extended the lead to 3-1 which is how the teams turned around.

Cambridge gradually started to get into the match with midfielders Harry Wick, Marcelo Sosa and Clark starting to combine well. Just as the Reds appeared to be making a comeback, Rewa took a 4-1 lead when Christophers snared his second goal in the 65th minute.

Down 4-1 – the worst position the team has found itself this season – seemed to spur the Reds into a full assault on the Manurewa goalmouth.

Sosa converted a 69th-minute penalty after a

Rewa defender was judged by referee Andy Holdsworth to have handled in the box. A minute later, Zach Mayo cracked home a stinging shot from 12 metres to reduce the scoreline to 4-3. The momentum was with the home side and Rewa found themselves desperately defending their lead for the last phase of the match.

Meanwhile, in other senior games, Cambridge D1s provided the highlight of last weekend’s men’s senior results with a high-scoring draw against old rivals Northern United Debacles. They drew their Waikato Division 3 match 3-3 at John Kerkhof Park.

Cambridge’s Paul Blackstock grabbed a brace while the third goal came from the penalty spot, converted by midfielder Adrian Clark making his first appearance of the season.

In Division 4, the D2s lost 5-1 at home to divisional leaders Melville United. Ben Carter scored for Cambridge.

Cambridge’s WaiBOP Championship side lost 5-2 at Taupo, after falling behind 2-1 in the

first half. Cambridge found the net through an own goal after only six minutes but the home team gained the lead, adding three more in the second spell. Cambridge’s second goal came from Dom Vettise in the 71st minute.

In the Lotto NRFL second division reserves competition, Cambridge lost 3-2 but can be pleased with the manner in which they finished the match. After trailing 2-0 at the break at John Kerkhof Park, Cambridge looked vulnerable but the side gradually improved through the second half to finish the better of the two teams. Keagan Harker pushed the lead out to 3-0 with another goal in the 71st minute.

From there, Cambridge found the energy and team spirit to give the visitors a shake.

First, Juan Alvarez scored with a diving header from a free kick in the 89th minute. Two minutes later, Alex Mukaka ran onto a through ball and kept his nerve to nudge it past the ‘keeper and into the net.

In the Waikato Women’s Division 1, Cambridge and Huntly Thistle shared the points in a 3-3 draw at John Kerkhof Park.

Cambridge’s goals were scored by Sophee Rapson-Jones (2) and Kym Thomasen.

Cambridge trampers left bright and early for a recent tramp at Pauanui, departing at 7am with a busy programme planned by our friends there. Although the weather report was not the best we were hopeful.

Alan and Leonie greeted us and gave us a brief talk on the history of Pauanui, ancient and recent. Taking a well-used path behind manicured gardens and trim holiday homes, we were careful not to trespass onto an old Pa site.

Passing through a large grove of mature pine trees we reached a board walk beside the Tairua river. The access road to Tairua could be seen across the water and beyond were the broken volcanic hills of the Coromandel Range. The track is maintained and improved by local people including Alan. Many native and some deciduous maples have been planted, their colours glowing against the darker greens.

A film that can be viewed again and again without ever getting tired of it. Bette Davis's Margo Channing is a film icon of major proportions. Her fear of the abyss is as human as it is at the centre of this selfish, insecure, sacred cow. She is surrounded by some other sensational women; Thelma Ritter, Celeste Holm, Anne Baxter and in a small but telling part, Marilyn Monroe, a graduate from the Copacabana school of dramatic art. George Sanders is another of the extraordinary casting and writing. Here is a film that has become essential viewing to anyone who loves movies.

You won't recall another film in which the nature of selfishness is so wittily dissected. A total triumph.

The story begins when ace detective Harry Goodman goes mysteriously missing, prompting his 21-year-old son Tim to find out what happened. Aiding in the investigation is Harry's former Pokémon partner, Detective Pikachu: a hilariously wise-cracking, adorable super-sleuth who is a puzzlement even to himself. Finding that they are uniquely equipped to communicate with one another, Tim and Pikachu join forces on a thrilling adventure to unravel the tangled mystery. Chasing clues together through the neon-lit streets of Ryme City, a sprawling, modern metropolis where humans and Pokémon live side by side, they uncover a shocking plot that could destroy the whole Pokémon universe. A enjoyable family fun movie.
