Curbing mistake costs ratepayers $40K

Makayla Wallace-Tidd and partner Josh Nelson regained use of their driveway this week after having limited access through much of the Birchwood Lane extension project. The alreadyfrustrating situation was delayed further when a $40,000 mistake caused the new curbing to be ripped up and re-done.

The campaign for the 2019 local body elections kicks off this month with candidate nominations opening on July 19 and closing at noon on August 16.

Elections are for regional, city and district councils, community boards and the district health board, and give residents a say over how their town or district will be run for the next three years. When elections were last held in 2016, only 38.7 percent of eligible Waipa residents voted – a figure at the lower end of national voter turnout across New Zealand’s provincial areas.

At a recent candidate information evening held at the Don Rowlands Centre, Waipa District Council CEO Garry Dyet said the region was in an “exciting period of growth and needed capable and driven candidates with strong leadership qualities and a passion for the community”.

“We are encouraging anyone who wants to make a difference in the local community to stand. After all, local government and local democracy are fundamental to our community and provide the opportunity for everyone’s voice to be heard,” he said.

Those wanting to be considered for election must be New Zealand citizens and be enrolled on a parliamentary electoral roll somewhere in New Zealand.

From September 20-25 Waipa residents will receive their voting pack, which will include a candidate profile book, personalised voting papers and a freepost return envelope that can be dropped off at any NZ Post office. The book will include all the names, photos and profile statements of candidates standing for Waipa District Council Mayor, Councillors and Community Boards, and Waikato Regional Council.

Voting in the local elections will be only by post; there are no polling stations.

Voting closes at 12 noon on October 12, and to ensure your vote is received on time, it should be posted by October 5.

More details are on the Waipa District Council website’s election page at www. waipadc.govt.nz/elections.

In the meantime, readers are invited to send in their thoughts on issues they consider to be particularly important to their communities. Jot your top three burning issues down and send them to viv@ goodlocal.nz.

Opus Orchestra’s Born in the USA

July 4 may have been and gone but celebrations will continue later this month with the Waikato’s Opus Orchestra performing their Born in the USA show in Hamilton on July 21.

The orchestra will be joined by Russian cellist sensation Lev Sivkov, who will perform the great American composer Samuel Barber’s Cello Concerto.

Russian cellist sensation Lev Sivkov will perform with the Opus Orchestra in Hamilton next weekend.

“He is perfectly suited to carry this lyrical and expressive work that demands outstanding technique and dramatic aplomb,” said orchestral promoter Sharon Stephens. “The cello is a most beautiful instrument and a perfect introduction to the world of classical performance. Often compared with the male voice, its sound is hugely expressive, ranging from dark and powerful bass tones, through mellow and calm, to silky, warm and vibrant.

“And chances are you will recognise the famous Mozart work whose main theme has been used countless times in our entertainment and media world. Opus Orchestra challenges you to step into the unknown and maybe discover that it isn’t so foreign after all.”

Born in the USA will kick off at 2pm on Sunday, July 21 at the Gallagher Academy of Performing Arts, Knighton Rd, Hamilton.

School-age children free.

To win a double pass to the show, send your full name and contact phone number, along with the subject line “Opus” to sophie@goodlocal.nz no later than 9am, Tuesday July 16.

SCHOOL HOLIDAYS SPECIAL

Letters to the editor

Shoddy bus shelters I am Stephen. I am a regular user of Go Bus to Hamilton and back. I am the gent that usually says gidday or waves. I have been using the buses because of eye problems. Since I have been using the buses I have noticed bus shelters around Cambridge are disgusting and need maintenance, perhaps checks on a regular basis. Local bus drivers say they have rung or contacted the local council about this.

But the council say it’s not their job. Yes, it is their job. The Waikato Regional Council say it really is Waipa District Council’s job to keep check on the bus shelters. The worst shelter is outside New World supermarket.

S Gallop Jason O’Dea, Waipa District Council’s Contracts Engineer responds: Our urban street cleaning contractor is required to regularly check shelters and carry out maintenance work to keep them tidy and functional. At the beginning of May the contractor did some more thorough checking and maintenance including lichen removal on the shelters on Cambridge Road and Shakespeare Street, graffiti removal on Shakespeare Street, and a clean and waterblast on Cambridge Road. The contractor also attempted to remove spiderwebs in local shelters without spraying with pesticides.

We received a query from the public on 5 June 2019 stating the shelter by New World needed maintaining. It has since had a clean-up, however it is almost impossible to get the rear of the backing glass clean as it is right up against the glass wall of the supermarket.

Bank profits The CEOs of New Zealand banks earn salaries in the millions as well as substantial bonuses together with other perks.

The New Zealand Prime Minister earns just under a million dollars for running the country. The fact that banking CEOs earn much more is indefensible.

When banks were established in Tudor times, the idea was that the bankers would look after the money for the people, and that the people themselves would control the banks.

Things have now changed dramatically.

The CEOs make decisions about money in the banks.

Consequently, the costs of borrowing money and low interest rates are out of hand.

Huge amounts of finance are going into the banking coffers instead of going to the people.

A comment from a banking personality would be appreciated.

Michael Cole.

Curbing mistake costs ratepayers $40,000

By Sophie Iremonger

Residents in Birchwood Lane are up in arms about a curbing mistake which will cost Tamahere ratepayers an additional $40,000 to seal and extend the street. $350,000 was set aside for the project which involves the construction of 340m of new road with a shared footpath.

Construction began in April, and was due to be completed last month. But in the last week of June, when the project was still not completed, construction staff from Waikato District Alliance (Waikato District Council’s roading arm) realised they’d made a mistake

– the freshly laid concrete kerb was put in at the wrong height, forcing the nearly 700m strip to be ripped up and redone to the tune of around $40,000. It boosted the total project cost by around 11 per cent to $390,000.

“Somebody has to be held accountable, it’s shocking,” a nearby resident Browyn Page said.

“It’s really embarrassing, and why should we pay for that!?”

The re-do came as a surprise to residents who had watched the curbing go up just days before.

“The road works have been one thing after another,” said Makayla Wallace-Tidd, who has been unable to access her driveway during the

footpath construction. “Completion was supposed to be the end of June, but here we are one week into July and it’s not looking good.”

Makayla said the curbing mistake had added to what was already a difficult situation. Through most of the project she and partner Josh Nelson have had limited or no access to their driveway, sometimes resorting to a muddy tread across a wet paddock in the morning to access their car, or carefully navigating around cones and over the curb to park their car outside their home.

“They could have kept us up to date when our driveway was blocked,” she said. “Anything so

we didn’t have to drive on the rocky road, then reverse through cones to then mount a kerb and drive on the footpath.”

It was acceptable for the greater good of the street, she thought, but horror set in when the footpath curbing which had contributed to their access problem was ripped up and redone all over again.

“They seem to keep operating as if there aren’t any residents affected. Just because we might be one of the only driveways/homes affected doesn’t mean we don’t matter. It has delayed everything so much more and meant that we have been stuck walking to our cars in torrential rain.”

The pair have lived on the street for seven months, and admit the project will be worth it in the end, particularly to provide a smooth footpath for children riding their bikes to Tamahere School. “Our road was gravel before so it will be nice to have a finished road, but the process has been more stressful and frustrating than anything.”

A council spokesperson confirmed the $40,000 curbing mistake, admitting that the cost would have to be absorbed by council. They said the job was expected to be completed by the end of July, with foundation work due to begin this week on the road pavement.

Toy display perfect for school holidays

By Viv Posselt

A man best known in Cambridge for his pink meringues has turned out to be a closet master toymaker as well.

Jim Kerr has been building and fixing toys for as long as he can remember, and now some of his eyepopping collection have been put on display at PGG Wrightson in Cambridge’s Duke St. That was the perfect choice of venue because most of his toys are models of agricultural vehicles or machinery, and Jim is particularly delighted to see how the Wrightson crew have added ‘farming’ touches to give the display an authentic feel.

“They’ve added grass and haybales, bits of grain and feed in front of the cows … it’s lovely,” he said.

The display will be up for a few weeks, and is likely to draw in youngsters during the school holidays.

At nearly 84, Jim is familiar locally for the meringues he makes and hands out around town. They are personally-delivered in little bags – the leftovers after he has whisked up and distributed thousands of meringues to various charitable organisations, including the Cancer Society and Waikato Hospice, on special days throughout the year.

He’s been doing that since his wife Joy died in 2000; his story earned him a slot as one of television’s early Good Sorts.

Jim said Joy was the one making the food, while he’d be growing it in the garden. What people often didn’t know was that Jim was always tinkering away on toys behind the scenes, either making them new or fixing up and painting old broken bikes, toy trucks and diggers, trains and whatever else came to hand.

“We had to make our own toys as kids,” he said.

“Santa sometimes brought the odd one, but we had to fix anything that broke. I’ve been doing it ever since.”

Jim and Joy’s three daughters grew up in a houseful of toys, often crafted from old welding rods, discarded wheels, bits of lawnmowers and old washing machines.

The display came about after new Cambridge resident, Dr Bronwen Byers, set up home here and joined a 60’s Up session. The doctor of social policy who has worked in community development for years ended up chatting to Jim … and the rest is history.

“All I really did was negotiate with him over the past four months and try to persuade him to put his toys on display. I told him ‘you don’t need to be so modest’, and here we are,” she said.

It seems there’s even more to Jim than toys and meringues. Turns out he’s been playing the bagpipes with the Cambridge and Districts Pipe Band for the past 68 years. It’s something of a nod to his Scottish roots, and a musical link he shares with his cousin John Hargreaves, who has been with the Cambridge Brass Band for 71 years.

Shop lifter makes low blow

By Sophie Iremonger

Shop lifters have been caught targeting Cambridge’s most valued retailers – charity op shops. At least two such stores have been targeted in recent weeks.

Donna Young, founder/director of New Lives Animal Rescue Op Shop, and Marianne Jarvie, President of Jumble Around, both believe the same woman has

stolen items from their non-profit stores.

The woman was captured on CCTV video at New Lives at midday on Wednesday last week. She spent about 45 minutes there, placing the store’s more valuable items in her bag before leaving without paying.

“It’s hard to tell exactly how much was taken, I get a bit upset just watching it,” said Donna, hoping the footage of the woman might at least lead to her arrest. “I don’t

think there was even a clear method to what she was taking, she took a fish tank ornament, some really lovely vases.”

Donna said the store gets shoplifters nearly every week, but it’s hard to catch them.

“It just frustrates us, our volunteers get upset and blame themselves as well. … It’s low.”

“The things they stole may have been donated items, but it’s still a loss for us from what we could have made selling them.

We’re hard working people, and when someone comes along and starts stealing things, which somebody has actually donated to us to help animals, you kind of start to think, why bother.

“It doesn’t just affect bottom line, it’s morale too.”

After seeing New Lives post their CCTV footage of the woman onto social media, Jumble Around volunteers were “one hundred per cent” certain it was the same woman that apparently tried to rip off their store last month.

“We recognised her straight away,” said Jumble Around president Marianne Jarvis.

Jarvis said the woman claimed she was from Auckland, and was returning a jacket she’d bought at the store. As a more valuable item, the jacket was kept on a special items list, and had not been ticked off as being “sold” on their record.

Nevertheless, they told her she could exchange it for something else, and she chose a watch. Then she returned the next day, again trying to get a cash refund. Staff said she became irate when they refused.

“She really needed calming down,” said Marianne, describing a nasty, threatening

Donna Young at New Lives Animal Rescue was stunned with the brazen theft.

manner. “We escorted her out because she certainly put the fear in our volunteers that day.”

Staff phoned the police, but the woman was gone by the time they arrived.

Both Donna and Marianne hope those who recognise the woman will contact NZ Police. For non-emergencies, phone Police on 105 or visit 105.police.govt.nz.

Accommodation changes underway

By Viv Posselt

Plans for the seismic strengthening of the 107-year-old Masonic Hotel in Duke St are underway as moves to turn the property into a high-end boutique hotel gather pace.

Speaking to a recent Destination Cambridge gathering, the hotel’s new owner Gerry Westenberg said resource consent had been granted for the development and he would be applying for building consent for the seismic strengthening works over the next couple of months. “We expect this strengthening work to begin later this year.”

Once completed, the redeveloped hotel will offer 38

rooms, including four penthouse suites, an orangery restaurant, basement wine/whiskey bar, and new tearooms.

Attention will also be given to the existing balcony at the front of the building. “We have to make it compliant to code with regard to the height of the balustrade,” Gerry said, “and I’m looking at bringing back the cast iron posts that were removed in 2003 and replaced with what looks like netball posts.

“We will also get rid of the green paint around the windows which is hiding a lot of the architectural detail. The hotel is no longer generating enough income to be viable. By repurposing it, I hope it will become an attractive asset for Cambridge.”

An artist’s impression of how the repurposed Masonic Hotel will look.

Gerry is a digital marketing and customer insights specialist who co-founded StayinFront Inc, and now runs the Auckland-based IT company, CME Connect.

He bought the Masonic three years ago, responding to a lifelong love of old buildings and a search for an investment in Cambridge.

“I have a real interest in old buildings, and this is a particularly beautiful one. Aside from the earthquake risk, which we are now addressing, it is very sound, but it is looking a little tired inside and out. The hotel also has a great history, and we’ll acknowledge that in the way we repurpose it.”

According to Cambridge Museum records, the original Masonic was built of timber in 1866, rebuilt and enlarged during the following decade, then destroyed by fire and rebuilt in 1912 in its current form. It is notable for its grand wooden

staircase and stained-glass windows – which Gerry intends keeping – and for the cast iron work on the verandah.

In outlining his plans, Gerry said

Booking interest is already being shown in Hidden Lake Hotel and Apartments, a luxury accommodation venue due to open in Cambridge early next year.

Hidden Lake managing director Glenda Hamilton presented an update on the hotel at a recent Destination Cambridge meeting.

She said the build was currently slightly ahead of schedule, and interest was already being shown for early 2020 bookings, primarily from groups and mainly from European, the United States and the Australian markets.

“More than just accommodation, we will be offering a range of experiences and activities around the region,” she said.

The venue’s capacity will be able to accommodate 98 guests, and there will be a spa overlooking the lake, a garden restaurant, a club lounge, conference rooms, and a facility for bike storage.

the orangery restaurant would be a walled-off glass structure situated at the back of the hotel, featuring gardens and seating for about 80 people.

Plans for a basement speakeasy style whiskey or wine bar with a stage for live performance are also in the works, with new tearooms intended to go into the space where the gaming rooms are currently sited. Gerry said those would be modelled along the lines of the signature ‘Angelina’ tea rooms of France.

“Once it is all finished, I see the hotel being a real jewel for Cambridge. It is a great space in the centre of town with a rich history that the community should know about and enjoy.”

Design & Build your way into a dream home TO OWN A SECTION is to have a blank canvas of sorts. Yes, the unique parameters of your section help frame what can and can’t be done, but even within those ‘restrictions’, the possibilities are wide open. Therein lies the challenge.

To create the ideal home, your house should tick three crucial boxes: 1. It should make strategic use of the shape of the section.

2. The aesthetics of shape and materials must produce an enduring delight. That means that the design should have the intangible feel that you were after, to the point where you still enjoy your home years later.

3. Your home must be functionally easy. Beyond looking great, living in your house should feel convenient. To design a home that fits you in this way, RPS would first need to have a clear idea on how you like to do life.

DESIGNING A BESPOKE HOME is a unique journey, one that RPS Homes understands very well. From our perspective, how we get to the right result is crucial; we want to make the whole experience enjoyable and rewarding for you.

AS A STARTING POINT, you could look over our range of unique plans already designed and waiting for your creative input. We can even gain design direction from something you’ve scribbled on a napkin. Or, you may already have architecturally designed plans and need someone to build your dream home.

However the design comes about, RPS Homes will build your house to the highest possible building standards. To learn more about Design & Build options with RPS Homes, call Neil: 022 050 2920.

Miriama’s purposeful trip to Geneva

By Viv Posselt

Cambridge’s Miriama Barton is still buzzing after attending last month’s 108th International Labour Conference (ILO) in Geneva as one of nine New Zealand delegates.

After a fortnight spent rubbing shoulders with world leaders and learning about global workplaces, she said she wouldn’t hesitate if asked to attend another ILO conference in the future.

Miriama was there as a representative of New Zealand’s Post Primary Teachers’ Association (PPTA) and under the umbrella of the New Zealand Council of Trade Unions, the national trade union centre to which she has belonged to for four years. Heading the delegation and representing the New Zealand Government was Workplace Relations and Safety Minister, Iain Lees-Galloway.

The two-week conference in mid-June marked the ILO’s centenary year. Its focus

Cambridge’s Miriama Barton with Workplace Relations and Safety Minister, Iain Lees-Galloway, in Geneva last month.

was on the Future of Work and how the ILO can prepare itself for the challenges and opportunities of the 21st century. It ended with the adoption of an unprecedented convention and recommendation to combat violence and harassment in the workplace, as well as a declaration charting the way towards a ‘human-centred’ future of work.

The latter looks at enabling people to benefit from changes to the world of work by strengthening the institutions of work to ensure adequate protection of workers, and promote ‘sustained, inclusive and sustainable growth and full and productive employment’.

Miriama, who has been teaching for over 40 years, currently teaches Maori and mathematics at Hamilton Boys’ High School.

She comes from a family of 12: “My mother was a teacher and seven of us are teachers … we’re now into our second generation in the same profession.”

She said the conference in Geneva opened her eyes to the realities of work for people in different countries around the world.

“I hadn’t really known what to expect, but I attended various sessions and listened in to several of the thematic forums. They were amazing … some were quite challenging emotionally. Many countries are really struggling with issues like workplace violence and inequality. I came away from it thinking that New Zealand isn’t doing too badly in some areas. We have our challenges, of course, but we are further along the road than many other countries.”

Workplace discrimination faced by those with disabilities is an area of particular interest to Miriama. She is mum to Maioro Barton, the Cambridge wheelchair basketballer who Miriama said faced an uphill battle in securing permanent employment.

“I see their struggles first-hand, and that is why the disability sector and combating gender-based violence in the workplace are both important areas of concern for me. In some ways, New Zealand is further ahead in its approach to disability than many other countries.”

Miriama said her important ‘takeaways’

from the conference included the need to shift our thinking away from the ‘old order’ of work, and be more adaptable, collaborative and inclusive when preparing people for the workplaces of the future.

She reported back on the Geneva conference at last weekend’s PPTA Maori Teachers’ Conference 2019.

one. So that will probably tell us more about how it’s going in reality,” she said. “We think there will be quite a bit of discussion about the practicalities of what’s happened, and the next phase of legislation. It’s got to work.”

Stage 2 of the legislation, which will involve gun registration, would give a better idea of how many guns are in New Zealand, she said.

“I hope they’ll take more time over that, because what we did find challenging was the very tight time frame that they turned that piece of legislation around. I appreciate that it needed to be done quickly and we weren’t going to get in their way, but we did raise a number of issues along the way; one was how the mechanics of the buy back scheme would work because you don’t want someone to turn up to surrender their guns, get frustrated with that process, talk to their mates and then they decide they’re not going to do it.”

The Kiwi Party challenged the validity of the law in the High Court, hoping to delay the legislation until after the 2020 election, but the court tossed it out.

Police Commissioner Mike Bush indicated last week that he will not be revisiting the pricing list for the buyback scheme.

Once collected, the guns will be destroyed in a hydraulic press.

Gun buy back right - will it work?

If the government is going to ban guns, then the buy back scheme is the right way to go, Louise Upston said at her Coffee Catch Up meeting in Cambridge last week. “I just worry that they haven’t budgeted enough.”

The Cambridge-based Taupo electorate MP said some of the original estimates for the budget had been from 500 million to over a billion. It’s now set at $208 million. “I don’t know how they came up with that figure. …

I think the difficulty will be how serious are they about reimbursing people.”

Guns in new or near new condition are eligible for 95 per cent of their base price, with 70 per cent for guns in a used condition and 25 per cent for guns in poor condition.

So far over 840 firearms have been handed to police, with online forms indicating a further 8000 will be handed in by owners.

A few complaints had been made at the MP’s Cambridge office, but not much. She said the Sika Show in Taupo in September – promoted as the country’s biggest hunting and outdoor trade show – would provide a good indication to how the scheme is being received by the public. Upston’s office intends to have a stall at the event.

“We’re expecting quite a lot of noise at that

Winter bugs bite

Winter bugs are knocking people over left, right and centre, with Waikato District Health Board confirming cases of the flu in hospital and reporting outbreaks in some rest homes.

It is asking the public to keep Waikato Hospital’s emergency department free for emergencies.

“We are currently seeing a lot of elderly people with respiratory problems, because of winter, which means we are not able to treat people with more minor conditions,” it said.

“If your condition is not urgent, please see your GP or visit Anglesea Accident and Medical Centre or call Healthline free on 0800 611 116 to free up our hospital staff for more urgent cases.”

Cambridge pharmacist Kevin Burgess believes it’s been a fairly standard season for flu – but there has been a notable rise in customers asking for vaccinations.

“People have been very proactive about coming in for them this year, which of course is why there’s a national vaccine shortage.”

The pharmacy has been reserving vaccine stock for those at greatest risk, in line with Ministry of Health guidelines.

Cambridge Medical Centre, Leamington

Medical Centre and Duke St Health and Medical Centre said they couldn’t find time to comment because their doctors were so busy.

At Cambridge High School, nurse Catherine Hendren hadn’t seen much of the flu in her clinic so far, but stomach bugs had been “quite prevalent last term and this term”.

“It would have been a higher percentage of the tummy bug last term than colds, but now it’s pretty well back to 50/50 I would say,” she said.

There had been a small increase in clinic visits compared with last year – 93 in May compared to 81 last May and 58 in June compared with 49 last June – but this was possibly due to roll growth.

Catherine said she could get up to 40 visits to her clinic per day at this time of year.

At Cambridge Primary School the worst week for illness during Term 2 was June 10-14, with an average of 60 students away every day. Numbers peaked on June 10, with 72 away sick.

The following week wasn’t much better, with an average of 56 children away every day.

Quick responders to rainy day fall

Cambridge’s good sorts came out of the woodworks and into the rain last week when an elderly woman fell over in her mobility scooter.

During Thursday’s midday downpour the mobility scooter slipped over on the Wilson St footpath near The Warehouse, and the woman was left stuck in the scooter, laying on its side.

STIHL SHOP Cambridge 42 Victoria Street Main Street, Cambridge Ph:07 827 6763

A young couple and a nearby woman were quick to rush to her aid, and were soon helped by some of the staff and clients at Riverside Dental Care. Luckily, one person happened to be a nurse.

She was kept dry and warm until ambulance staff arrived.

Riverside Dental Care has since received word that the woman is now home and well.

Student finds opportunity in Singapore exchange

By Sophie Iremonger

A young man from Hautapu will soon trade in his green Kiwi surroundings for a high-rise city environment when he takes on his final semester of study, and he can’t wait.

Twenty-year-old Waikato University student Matthew Montgomerie, a 2016 St Peter’s graduate, was announced recently as a recipient of the Prime Minister’s Scholarship for Asia, selected from a pool of nearly 600 applicants.

“I was pretty surprised, but then again I put a lot of effort into my application so it was nice to get the result,” Matt smiled.

“I’m definitely proud of the fact that I achieved a New Zealand government type scholarship.

“It’s given me the opportunity to really pursue what I want to pursue, and it’s really exciting to be representing not just myself but New Zealand as well.”

Matthew will complete the final semester of his Bachelor of Business at Nanyang Technological University in Singapore, voted

the world’s top under-50-year-old university.

Departing early next month, he’s looking forward to living and learning the culture, and perhaps even visiting the Rugby World Cup in Japan and a few other Asian countries after finishing his study.

But most importantly, the diligent student wants to represent his country, get out of his comfort zone, establish relationships and start forging pathways for his future in finance.

“Getting the funding means I can really challenge myself and immerse myself in the experience and make the most of it. Being such a well recognised university it will be a good chance to get some more practical skills as opposed to staying in New Zealand, like networking with some of the students there who are pretty motivated individuals. That’s pretty valuable,” he said.

“Then whether it’s next year or in a few year’s time, I’d like to bring those skills back here.”

Matthew was unsure whether he would undertake his career in New Zealand or

Asia, but plans to “see what comes” of his opportunities and networking during his stay. “If not, New Zealand’s not a bad place to come back to.”

Growing up on a dairy farm in Hautapu and still helping out there regularly, the one downside was being so far from home and not able to frequent his grassy farm refuge in between study.

“That’s probably what I’ll miss being in Singapore, big high rises and no grass,” he said. “But what’s really at the back of my mind is to just make the most of the experience and have fun.”

He said it was “well worth” looking at applying for the Prime Minister’s Scholarship, and recommended other students be creative with their applications.

“Don’t just go about it how you normally would, put something in there that’s a bit different, that’s one way to differentiate yourself, because there will be a lot of people out there wanting to get it. And go back to your roots of where you are, it kind of helps to show that anything’s possible.”

Matthew Montgomerie will go outside his Cambridge comfort zone and into the unfamiliar world of Nanyang Technological University in Singapore.

Small turnout for Coffee Catch Up meeting

By Sophie Iremonger

Just four people turned out to Louise Upston’s Coffee Catch Up meeting on Thursday morning last week. One of those was Cambridge Community Board member Philip Coles, who expressed the board’s wishes to slow speeds on State Highway 1 at the Karapiro Rd and SH29 turn offs.

With speeds up for discussion at Waipa District Council recently, the State Highway roads weren’t

included as they come under central government.

Coles reiterated that the board weren’t in favour of a blanket speed reduction, as discussed in the news recently, but urged speed changes at those two high risk intersections, or at least introduce measures such as signage and lights to help reduce speed and increase awareness.

“Because right now there’s nothing,” he said.

“There’s clearly a balancing act,”

Upston said, agreeing with the idea in principle. “If you lower the speed limits across the board people get more frustrated and, if they can’t pass, they pass in stupid places.”

Upston said instead of actually improving roads, Labour would be more inclined to simply reduce speeds on roads like State Highway 1.

The other main issues facing Cambridge at the moment, Upston said, were largely related to the growing population; the government’s

growth plan and housing options, and the Ministry of Education’s slow response to schools needing more classrooms. She also listed business uncertainty and changes to the racing bill – which are moving TAB income decisions from parliament to the Minister of Racing – as hot topics of discussion in the area.

“And of course conscience votes … I think for every constituent I made happy, I would have made one unhappy with my vote!”

Louise Upston’s Coffee Catch Up was a small but interesting meeting for those who attended.

And they’re only intermediateaged children, that’s the beautiful thing.”

Providing light relief after the dark scenes of Mufasa’s untimely death were Luka Lees and Turongonui Chase as loveable comic duo Timon the meerkat and Pumbaa the gaseous warthog. Madi Roberts played mandrill Rafiki and Lucy Forrest Zazu the red-billed hornbill.

An ensemble of giraffes, rhinos, elephants, gazelles, zebras, birds, tigers, hyenas, wildebeests and a cheetah ably supported the leads, along with graceful grassland and lioness dancers.

Dozens of other students lent their talents as choir, drumline, band and crew members, contributing to a slick performance that had audience members enthralled from the show’s effervescent beginning to its rousing finale.

Humpties make their mark in Tirau art expo Touches of Cambridge creative magic go on display this weekend at Tirau’s Deciduus Gallery in a collaborative show involving local ceramic artist Diane Parker and painter and gallery owner, Santie Cronje.

The artists are involved in the collaborative show Connections, running at the gallery from July 14 to 30. All those keen to go along are invited to the show’s opening from 11am to 1pm this Sunday, July 14 – warming soup cups and snacks will be available.

Santie said the show’s name had been chosen because both she and Diane are artists who ‘weave their lives and stories’ into their work. “The threads of communication and opportunity are brought together in a collection about connection, friendship and creativity. Deciduus has had a wonderful collaboration with Diane … she designs and creates ceramic planters exclusively for us, called Humpties.”

The Cambridge-based ceramic artist has been collaborating with Santie and Deciduus Gallery for the past year to develop a range of ceramics intended to complement

the gallery’s indoor plant collection. The Humpty Pots were the result of that creative collaboration, vessels that morph and evolve in shape and style from one series to the next.

Each Humpty is a unique original creation.

Santie, who had a gallery in Cambridge until she opened Deciduus in Tirau’s main street several years ago, is known as a visual storyteller. Her paintings are heavily influenced by her life experiences, thoughts and surroundings.

She said: “The ‘Past, Present and Future’ is the underlying theme in this series of works.

Thinking about creativity and how the modern world and technology influences the way we communicate, connect and create new worlds.”

Santie said her work keeps evolving as she uses technology to develop new creations from her paintings and photographs of the South Waikato.

A small series of new paintings and combined photographic works will also form part of the show, along with the release of a new collection of prints for Santie’s 2019 collection.

Work by artists Diane Parker and Santie Cronjie goes on show in Tirau this month.

The Cambridge Toy Library has purchased a suite of new educational toys thanks to a recent donation of nearly one thousand dollars to the non-profit community service on Taylor St. Operating out of the Cambridge Health and Community Centre, the Cambridge Toy Library gives families and their children aged 0 to 10 the chance to borrow educational toys, games, puzzles and equipment in a similar fashion to a library service.

Emma Page, President of the Cambridge Toy Library said the recent donation of $994 from the ANZ New Zealand Staff Foundation enabled an even wider range of equipment to be provided to Cambridge children.

“Children learn through play. With the generous grant we have been able to purchase these amazing financial literacy and numeracy toys,” she said.

“The children can learn to recognise numbers, counting and learn basic mathematics through role play, plus be introduced to how we use currency.

Win gets Leamington into the finals

Leamington Senior A players have secured their place in the semi-final after a tight physical battle on Saturday against last year’s promoted champions Taupiri.

Only 15 minutes into the game two early penalty kicks by Jarred Allen Baker put Leamington in the lead 6 – 0.

Taupiri slotted a handy penalty in response, but an unconverted try scored out wide by Josh Evans boosted the Leamington lead to 11-3 by half time.

Hayden Livill finished off a great team

try in the second half before number 8 Karl Nelsen scored a try which was converted

by Jarred Allen Baker. It sealed an emphatic victory for Leamington.

Player of the day was Jackson Neels.

The Senior B team were short on numbers going into what was a critical game in their campaign.

But the players proved the team was all quality rather than quantity, and sealed the win 21 – 5.

Tries went to Mick Wright, James Keeley

and Craig Bolton, with Andrew Brownie converting all three.

The Regal Agriculture Colts under 21 team suffered their first defeat of the season when they played Matamata 19-17. Try scorers were James Fraser and Lewis Ferrier.

Meanwhile the Under 85kg team lost a tight battle with Fraser Tech 31-29.

The Loonies Masters had no game on Saturday.

Tomorrow the senior team travel to the Eastern Suburbs, the Colts travel to Hamilton Marist and the Under 85kg team host University in the last game of the round robin. At this stage there will be no presidents grade game.

Lacrosse player to represent NZ A top lacrosse player from Cambridge will head to Canada next month to represent New Zealand at the Under 19 Women’s Lacrosse World Championship.

Lani Mouat, who took up lacrosse at Cambridge Middle School and perfected the craft throughout her time at Cambridge High School, is considered to be one of the faster players on the Kiwi team with a Yo-Yo Endurance test score of 45. She’s one of the fastest at Saint Joseph’s University in Philadelphia, where she has spent the past semester as a business student.

She initially began studying nutrition at Massey University, whist still training for the upcoming Women’s Lacrosse World Championship, but soon

caught the eye of a talent scout playing in a recruitment tournament during a brief trip to the states.

The St Joseph’s coach Alex Kahoe, named on the US Hall of Fame, is one of the key the reasons Mouat took this step in her lacrosse career. As a freshman – and being just one member of a squad of 37 – game time was minimal.

However, there has been a great support network “and it is important to do your time in the first year,” she said.

While at St Joseph’s, Mouat has changed course academically, opting instead for a Business Major in the interests of her future career.

It aligns with her role model Paul Rabil, a famous lacrosse player.

She’s been back home for the school holidays during

the American summer break.

She was part of a successful 2017 NZ under 23 campaign where the team placed third.

She was also made Lacrosse Player of the Year and Sportsperson of the year at high school.

MORTGAGE MATTERS

Free Up Your Cashflow

By Gavin Lynch – Yes Mortgages Struggling with high interest rates on short term debts such as hire purchases, credit cards or personal loans??

THEN MAYBE YOU SHOULD CONSIDER DEBT CONSOLIDATION. What is debt consolidation?

It’s the combining of several short term debts incurring high interest rates into one loan at a lower rate of interest.

Who should consider debt consolidation?

If you own your own home you can consolidate your short term debts into one loan by taking out a new mortgage against your house which is sufficient to pay off all the smaller debts.

Remember - the cheapest money you can borrow is generally housing interest rates with your mortgage.

What are the benefits of debt consolidation?  You have only one repayment each month.  You have to meet the repayment criteria of only one lender - your bank.  Your overall interest rate will be lower - compare 4.25% on your mortgage with up to 22% on your credit card debt.  The length of your term can be structured to suit your needs.

Let me give you an example:A short term debt of $30,000 made up of two hire purchases, two credit cards and a personal loan may cost $1,200 per month in repayments.

Consolidate this debt into a home mortgage and the repayments will come down to approx $180 per month over a 30 year term. Pay $580 per month over a five year term and the repayments are reduced by more than half and the $30,000 debt can be paid off in full in five years!

If you would like to talk about consolidating debt, please call me at Yes Mortgages on 823 4531 or 021 783 266.

Reds to face old rivals

By Josh Easby

Cambridge will renew one of their fiercest rivalries when Ngongotaha visit this weekend for their Northern League football clash.

Between 2015 and 2017, the two clubs shared bragging rights to being the best teams in Waikato/Bay of Plenty competition and both were promoted to the Lotto NRFL. But the two clubs meet at John Kerkhof Park on Saturday with very different seasons so far.

Cambridge are fourth on the second division table, part of a pack chasing the title and promotion. Ngongotaha are bottom of the competition after 15 rounds and staring at relegation back to the WaiBOP ranks. Form often becomes meaningless though when rivalry lifts performance and the Reds will be aware of the need to not underestimate their opponents.

The game kicks off at 3pm while the two clubs’ reserves teams square off at 12.30pm.

Cambridge moved two places up the table with a well-earned 1-1 draw against Greenhithe Catimba at North Harbour Stadium last Saturday. Reds head coach Paul Richardson said his team had played well enough to win the game but was pleased to be returning home with a point.

“It was a good point,” he said.

Cambridge could have taken the lead early but missed two chances as the game settled in. Greenhithe took the lead through Luca Ortali in the 20th

Burgos, Dave O’Donnell (2), Miguel minute. Cambridge levelled with a Peterle, Mariano Castellon (2), Adrian penalty from Luke Stephenson on the Clark and own goal. In Waikato stroke of half-time. It was the English winger’s first goal for the first team and Division 4, the Cambridge D2s found follows his double for the Reds reserves the net four times, beating Northern United Seniles 4-3. Goalscorers were the week before.

Andy Kemp, Rory Forde, Andrew Turning around at 1-1, the teams Myers and the winner from Ben Carter. cancelled each other out in the second In the WaiBOP Championship, half.

Cambridge extended their unbeaten In the early game, Cambridge run to five games, with a 3-1 win at Reserves continued their improved Hamilton Wanderers. Captain Adam goalscoring form but surrendered Brady got the scoring underway with a half-time lead to lose 4-3 against his 14th goal of the season, in the first Greenhithe Catimba.

Devon Andrews gave Cambridge the minute of the match. With 10 minutes to go, striker James Cakebread put the lead in the 21st minute but Greenhithe result beyond doubt with his fifth of skipper Rodrigo Stephanou levelled the season. after 37 minutes. As the players were readying for half-time, Johnny Sanchez found the net for Cambridge to send the visitors into the break with a 2-1 advantage.

Greenhithe put the Reds under pressure and three goals in a 12-minute spell turned the game around.

Guillermo Tchobanian (76’), substitute David Sadrinas (82’) and Guilhemme Piconi (88’) gave Greenhithe a 4-2 lead with time almost up. Two minutes into added time, Sanchez added his second goal of the game to narrow the deficit.

Meanwhile, other Cambridge teams had a goal feast at the weekend.

Leading the way were the Cambridge D1s who put eight goals past Claudelands Rovers in the Waikato Division 3 match. Trailing 3-1 after an hour, the D1s came good with a vengeance winning 8-3.

Dave O’Donnell scored twice for Cambridge D1s in their 8-3 win.

Long drive helps young footballers

By Josh Easby

When Cambridge’s Phoenix junior team needed a coach last year, Phil Burkett stepped up for the challenge. It didn’t matter that the role would require two round-trips a week to Cambridge from his home in Taumarunui.

Now in his second year as the team’s coach, Burkett has the 320km weekly routine down to a fine art as the Phoenix (who play in the Waikato 10th grade) train on Thursday nights and play on Saturday mornings.

“I drive to and from training on Thursdays, and then come back on Fridays to stay overnight in Cambridge,” he explained. “It’s all good.”

Burkett, whose grandson Flynn Jennings plays for the Phoenix, is one of a large number of volunteers who enable more than 500 junior players to enjoy winter football.

Cambridge FC, which provides winter football for 650+ senior and junior players and summer football for more than 300, is a volunteer-run sports club.

When the club received its Quality Club Mark - and quality

assurance standard - assessors estimated volunteers contribute more than 30,000 hours of unpaid labour each year.

Cheese winners

with Jan Bilton

There are approximately 4.2 million dairy cows in New Zealand.

Thank goodness. Their top quality milk provides the opportunity for small and larger cheesemakers to experiment and deliver some of the best taste treats in the world. New cheeses such as burrata – a fresh mozzarella-like ball with a buttery inside from cheesemaker Viavio — won a gold medal this year’s NZ Champion Cheese Awards for the best fresh Italian-style cheese. And it’s deliciously decadent.

However, the country’s finest cheese was not of cow origin. The Countdown New Zealand Champion of Champions (commercial) was a gouda prepared from goat’s milk on a 155-hectare farm a 20-minute drive from Hamilton. Meyer cheese has been a consistent winner over the years. Ben and Fieke Meyer emigrated from Holland in 1983 and commenced making gouda in the Dutch tradition. Their son Miel is now general manager and his brother Geert who is the cheesemaker won the 2019 Champion Cheesemaker award Another gouda — Mahoe Farmhouse Cumin from Northland — grabbed the Puhoi Valley Champion of Champions Boutique Cheese award.

Gouda is a versatile cheese, great for cheeseboards and salads and it’s also a marvellous melting cheese.

Australian Master Cheese Judge, Russell Smith said the awards for Dutch-style cheeses reflects the quality of these New Zealand creations. “I judge around the world and Dutch-style cheeses made in New Zealand rank with the best.”

75g Meyer Goat Gouda cheese, thinly sliced 1 medium tomato, sliced Trim the mushroom stalks if preferred. Sauté in the oil for about 1 minute, until limp. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Remove from the heat.

Toss the baby spinach leaves in the balsamic dressing.

Preheat a grill. Lightly toast the ciabatta on both sides.

Place half the cheese on top and grill until just melted. Top with the spinach, mushrooms, tomato and remaining cheese. Grill until the cheese has melted.

Serve as a light lunch with extra spinach salad on the side. Or serve as a snack. Serves 2.

GOAT GOUDA MELT

NOBLE KNOTS

Simple but delicious. I used a hand cheese cutter that thinly slices the cheese into (approx.) five gram pieces. Creamy, delicate oyster mushrooms are becoming readily available from supermarkets.

100g oyster mushrooms 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 clove garlic crushed 1 cup baby spinach leaves 2-3 tablespoons balsamic dressing 2 thick slices ciabatta or similar, cut on an angle

CRAVE

extra chopped chives to garnish Preheat the oven to 220°C. Combine the flour, baking powder, sugar, baking soda, salt and chives in a medium bowl.

Rub the butter into the mixture until it resembles coarse bread crumbs. Add the cheese and lightly mix. Stir in the buttermilk and mix to combine.

Place the dough on a lightly floured surface and knead gently 2-3 times. Pat or roll into 2cm thick piece about 21cm square.

Cut into 2.5cm strips. Tie each into a loose knot. Place on an ungreased baking tray then sprinkle with the remaining cheese.

Bake for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned. Garnish with the extra chives. Best served warm. Makes 6.

Mainland Noble cheese is a versatile, reduced-fat tasty cheese and won the 2019 Champion Cheddar Award.

2 cups plain flour 1 tablespoon each: baking powder, sugar pinch each: baking soda, salt 2 tablespoons finely chopped chives 50g chilled butter, grated 1 cup (75g) grated low-fat Noble cheese 1 cup buttermilk

BAKED BRIE CROISSANTS An easy lunch. This Puhoi Valley cheese was the category winner.

2 large croissants 50g brie eg Te Muri Triple Cream Brie 4-6 tablespoons tamarillo relish 2 large feijoas or 1 ripe pear, halved, peeled, cored and sliced Preheat the oven to 180°C. Cut the croissants in half. Thinly slice the brie and place on the croissant bases. Top with the feijoas or pear then the relish.

Place on a baking paper-lined baking tray and bake for 10 minutes.

Serves 2.

Property Manager Cambridge Real Estate was formed and established to bring Cambridge and district people that 'extra special service' that is sometimes lacking in the busy world of modern commerce.

Our approach to property management is no different and we are on the hunt for a Property Manager who knows how to deliver that ‘extra special service’ to both landlords and tenants.

We are looking for someone who has a background in property management, is extremely organised and focused, is able to build and maintain strong working relationships with landlords and tenants, as well as show the ability to maintain and grow the existing portfolio.

You should have well-honed communication skills and be able to build rapport with ease. It goes without saying that keeping up with the legislation and being able to advise clients on implementation is essential.

Key responsibilities include: • Developing and maintaining good relationships with both property owners and tenants • Marketing rental properties and selecting tenants • Regular property inspections across the portfolio • Ensuring that the paperwork is in order and current • Coordinating service providers to address property maintenance If you’re interested give the team a call at People in Mind on 07 823 3250 or apply online at www.peopleinmind.co.nz/client-vacancies

The Lion King is Disney's crown jewel, a timeless story with real drama, epic adventure, humour and beloved music. You are now invited to journey to the African savannah and experience a grand, all-new live action edition of the award-winning global phenomenon.

After the murder of his father, a young lion prince flees his kingdom only to learn the true meaning of responsibility and bravery. Simba idolizes his father, King Mufasa, and takes to heart his own royal destiny on the plains of Africa.

With help from newfound friends, Simba must figure out how to grow up and take back what is rightfully his. With breath-taking visuals and iconic soundtrack and unparalleled talent, The Lion King will honour the original animated film whilst adding immense scope and massive scale.

A mild-mannered Uber driver named Stu picks up a grizzled detective who is hot on the trail of a sadistic, bloodthirsty terrorist and finds himself thrust into a harrowing ordeal where he has to keep his wits, himself unharmed, and work with his passenger while maintaining his 5-star rating.

It is violent, but you’ll love the plot and the actors.

Great comedy. You won’t be able to stop laughing.

It’s like a mixture of Lethal Weapon meets Rush Hour meets Mr. Magoo – work that one out if you can.

Comments: “It is a very entertaining and funny movie from beginning to end. Recommended for a date night.” “Everyone was laughing and even my wife, who isn't into this kind of movie, enjoyed it.” “One of the funniest movies ever. A must see, the audience never stopped laughing.”

Historic win for Hautapu

The team had good reason to smile after their 16th straight win for the season on Saturday.

By Steph Bell-Jenkins

Joyous scenes erupted in Hautapu’s changing sheds last Saturday afternoon as a pumped Senior A side celebrated their 16th straight win in this year’s Waikato club rugby competition.

It is believed to be the first time a premier team has won every round robin game with a bonus point in the competition’s 52-year history. Bonus points are awarded for scoring four or more trys per game.

Coach Craig Stevenson said he was extremely proud of his side and was looking forward to taking on Hamilton Marist in tomorrow’s home semi-final.

“Going unbeaten in the first two rounds is really, really special and as I said before the game, it’s something the guys will always remember, even when they’re long retired,” he said.

Second five and winger Daniel James said it was cool to be part of a team with “so many talented and skilled players”, including Chiefs and Waikato representatives.

Speaking after Saturday’s game, supporter Colin Johnstone, whose son Ayden played for Hautapu before joining the Highlanders this year, applauded Stevenson’s efforts.

“It’s great coaching from him and he’s got them really

playing well I reckon,” he said. “Every position’s well covered and it’s a good tidy game which is great because the last few seasons they’ve been building up and building up and now they’ve really reached a peak.”

Captain Jono Armstrong attributed his team’s success to its tight-knit culture.

“We thrive on enjoying our footy, that’s been our focus and I think it shows in how we play on the field,” he said.

“We’ve got a Scotsman and an Irishman in our team and they’ve just come over and added this fun mentality and everyone’s jumped on board. We hang out on the weekends and we’ve got a real team culture on and off the field.”

Armstrong had a message for the public ahead of tomorrow’s home semi-final. “We would love to see as much of the town to get behind us as possible because this is the year for Hautapu,” he said. “Having a big crowd there is great and then we get to play for them.”

If Hautapu wins they will go on to contest the Waikato Breweries Shield, hoping to bring it home for the first time in 12 years.

Tomorrow’s game will kick off at 2.45pm at Memorial Park in Hautapu Senior A captain Jono Armstrong, with Coby Milne (right) and teammates, shake hands with Fraser Tech players after Saturday’s win.
