Couple win new ute Cambridge couple Jane and John McLaren recently won a brand-new ute after attending Fieldays in June.

Scanning their Fieldays Explorer Band during the event, they went into the draw for an Isuzu D-Max ute and were recently announced as the winners – having been drawn from a pool of 115,000 visitors who picked up a wrist band at the event.

Now the winner has been drawn, all of the returned bands will be cleaned and reused again at next year’s event.

Winner Jane attended Fieldays on the Friday with her son as it is known as “Fieldays Friday” at school, and visited several exhibitors that activated the wristband. She was absolutely delighted, she said, having never won anything before.

Jane and John were presented with their brand-new Ute recently by Isuzu New Zealand’s Marketing Manager, Kathryn Hayward who confirmed another Isuzu D-Max giveaway for the 2020 event.

Prize winner Jane McLaren gave the new ute a test on the Isuzu test track onsite at Mystery Creek.

After receiving the keys to their new ride, Jane tested it out on the Isuzu test track onsite at Mystery Creek to get some mud on the tyres.

Judges said the newly-built traditional villa was welldeserving of the supreme award.

A traditional villa in Cambridge has been named the Waikato Registered Master Builders Supreme House of the Year. Built

by Vida Homes, the house also won a​Gold award and took out the Carters New Home $1 million - $1.5million category.

“From the outside in, the high-quality is evident in the implementation of the home’s external cladding and decking,” judges said.

“There is complex carpentry throughout the build and the selection of product and finishing lines are all consistent with the home’s established architectural style.

Overall there were 12 Gold Award winners for the Waikato announced at the Hamilton gala dinner on Friday, August 2. They will now be judged against other regional Gold Award winners from around the country to determine the top 100 finalists for the national awards in Auckland on November 23.

Winners John and Jane McLaren with New Zealand National Fieldays Society CEO Peter Nation and Isuzu Utes New Zealand Marketing Manager Kathryn Hayward.

CCTV volunteers needed

Are you keen to help make Waipā a safer place to live and spend time in? New Zealand Police and Waipa District Council are on the look-out for volunteers to monitor its new CCTV cameras.

Next month, 13 cameras will be installed in Cambridge and Te Awamutu at several key intersections and along main roads in both hubs. These are expected to go live in late-September.

To make the system the best it can be, around 20 volunteers are needed to help monitor these cameras during peak hours on Friday and Saturday nights.

Council’s transportation manager Bryan Hudson said volunteers would work on a roster system and be based at the Te Awamutu Police Station where a workstation has been set up.

“Council want to make sure if something happens in Cambridge or Te Awamutu Police can be alerted immediately to suspicious activity or if someone is in need of assistance.”

Police constable Ryan Fleming (pictured above) said the recruitment operation would be managed by CommSafe Te Awamutu who would oversee the vetting and training process.

“This is a great way for people to show their community values and could be a good stepping stone into the police force. You’ll gain insight into the way we operate in the force and what keeping the community safe is like.”

CommSafe Te Awamutu’s patrol coordinator Stuart Hampton said he was keen to see residents from both Cambridge and Te Awamutu coming forward to help.

“We will need eight volunteers each weekend to cover four shifts on Friday and Saturday night. Each shift will be three hours long and require two people for safety purposes. During these shifts CommSafe and Police will be on the ground patrolling ready to take action if needed.”

Those interested in applying should contact Ryan Fleming at ryan.fleming@ police.govt.nz.

Nearly three dozen babies at Latch On

It was quite the sight to see with a total of available to them through groups like the La nect with the local network of mothers and 34 babies and their mums breastfeeding at Leche League of New Zealand. babies, and understand the support that’s once inside the former Cambridge maternity hospital on Friday morning last week.

The fourth consecutive Big Latch On event at the Cambridge Health and Community Centre easily beat the 2017 count of 23 babies but didn’t quite surpass last year’s record of 41 babies.

“We’re still really happy,” said organiser Becky Russell from the Cambridge La Leche League.

“Just the sound and sight of everyone together is pretty phenomenal,” said Debbie Graham, a lactation consultant and member of the Cambridge La Leche League.

Becky said the main aim of the event was raising awareness around breastfeeding in the community, supporting local mums and encouraging them to reach out for support.

The event was part of a nationwide effort held during World Breastfeeding Week, with family organisations throughout the country hosting “latch on” events over Friday and Saturday last week.

Efforts were made worldwide too – with the Global Big Latch On website reporting 18 thousand people attending Latch On events around the world, and more mums joining in via social media.

Crave sponsored the morning tea, with further support from Lazer Plumbing and Cornege Photography, and spot prizes given out on the day.

Regardless of setting or beating records, organisers hoped that this year’s event Thirty-four mothers and their babies, along with a few older siblings, attended the Big Latch On event in helped Cambridge mums get out and conCambridge last week.

Puppy love’s life-changing results

By Sophie Iremonger

The annual appeal week for Assistance Dogs NZ is on now – and the organisation hopes to see donors, volunteers and supporters come out in force.

“We receive no government funding, we rely on donations and grants, so every little bit helps,” said Robyn Marek, regional puppy development supervisor with Assistance Dogs NZ. “As any client would tell you, these dogs are completely life changing for them.”

The organisation, founded in 2008 by Julie and Rick Hancox, provides trained service dogs to clients throughout the country to help with disabilities such as autism, Downs syndrome, cerebral palsy and diabetes.

Robyn Marek said they were very much open to more volunteers and donations. “I’m always looking for puppy raisers and boarders.”

One family in Cambridge are puppy raisers for Assistance Dogs, and their rather big “puppy” Dexi, a lab-retriever cross, will soon be ready to begin her service training in Auckland. “She’ll hopefully be ready within the next couple of months,” said Robyn.

“She’s still very playful,” said Dexi’s puppy-raiser Isabel Steel.

“I love watching her progress, from when we first saw her to now, she’s more behaved, not completely there but she’s definitely matured,” added Siobhan Copeland, who along with her brothers Hamish and Lachlan, managed to talk their parents into signing up as puppy raisers.

“They wanted a dog, I said you’re not getting one, you’ll be leaving home soon and it’ll become my dog,” Isabel laughed. “They had a note up at the high school about it, and so I said well that’s the only way you’re getting a dog!”

Other perks for puppy raisers are not hav-

ing to pay council registration fees or vet bills (covered by Assistance Dogs) though they do need to get the dog used to certain situations, like going to the supermarket. Robyn meets with the families every few weeks, making sure the puppy is progressing well and guiding the family with tips or pointers. At about a year and a half to two years of age, the dogs then go to Auckland where they’re assessed and trained for whichever job they show the best strength towards.

“Some dogs are better suited to some things than others, Robyn was saying she’s got quite a good nose on her so she might end up as a diabetic dog, sniffing for low blood sugar and things like that,” said Isabel, admitting it does take a dedicated person or family to raise the dog right.

“It’s like having another child, it is a big commitment,” she said. “The kids love it, but it is a lot of work. It’s really great because you can take them places, but it’s hard work because you do need to take them places.”

So far, amongst other activities, Dexi has visited the supermarket (where she’s quite popular), a shopping mall, a school drama assessment, school fundraising, swimming pools, and accompanies Isabel to work each day.

“She’s quite good, if anything she just gets bored, she’d rather be playing.

“The thing we’re working on now is food… she’ll eat anything.

“They’re not allowed scraps off the floor or human food, just treats during training and dog food. She can’t go on the furniture or jump up. I suppose it’s kind of like childcare, you have to be consistent with them.”

Siobhan said she loved training Dexi and had found a best friend in her. “She’s a good friend, she’s always there for you,” she said, admitting it would be hard to say goodbye.

“It will be sad going in one sense, but in an-

other sense you’re giving her a home where she can really make a difference,” said Isabel.

The family wants to encourage donations and support towards the organization. “It’s very worthwhile, especially when you see the how people benefit from them.”

As well as sign-ups for puppy raisers, Robyn said the organisation was also seeking people to sign up as boarders – to look after the puppies when their raising-family goes away on holiday – as well as donations and puppy sponsors.

Knitting communities back together

By Viv Posselt

Visitors to the Operation Cover-Up (OCU) display in Cambridge heard of the gratitude with which their gifts were received in impoverished parts of Eastern Europe.

Guest speaker Andie Davies from the Auckland-based Mission without Borders New Zealand said some of the communities receiving the knitted goods lived in homes with broken roofs and walls, where several children shared a single bed and parents often slept on earthen floors. Most of them battled bitter winter temperatures without any form of heating.

Thanking those who had contributed items on the OCU display, she said recipients across the six Eastern European countries were deeply grateful.

“When you give the gift of a blanket, you also give the gift of hope and love. That is something so many of these people have never had before. We [Mission without Borders] work with people who are often the ones within their society that no-one else has room for in their life. So, when they receive these goods, it is mind-blowing to them.”

The knitted blankets and clothes are distributed to needy communities and orphanages in Moldova, Romania, Ukraine,

Bulgaria, Albania and Croatia. Also sent over are items such as toiletries, notebooks and pens.

Andie said Mission without Borders partnered with churches in the local areas where they worked. Such an arrangement meant communities were empowered to eventually help meet their own needs, and Mission without Borders was able to provide

aid across a wider area.

Operation Cover-Up is thought to have contributed over 130,000 blankets, as well as items of clothing, since it started in New Zealand in 2000.

Items on the August 1 display at the Cambridge Baptist Church were packed away for shipping the following day.

Students go native

Cambridge High School students rolled up their sleeves and got busy in Roto-o-rangi last week planting native trees as part of their climate change initiative.

Organised by students on the school’s services committee, the students spent the morning at Marc Gascoigne’s farm, continuing an already four week-long project to plant native trees in amongst farm land and near a stream to help filter water that passes through.

“We were basically there to help them get a few more plants in the ground,” said student organiser Molly Oldershaw, explaining how the idea for the project came about when the students took part in a ‘climate strike’ at Garden Place earlier this year.

“It was a great team effort actually, and Marc said he was pleasantly surprised at how productive we were.

“After a few hours of hard mahi, and several big falls into mud or the creek, we were all done and headed off back to school for last period.”

Major renovation for leading stud

By Sophie Iremonger

The owners of the renowned Cambridge Stud, Brendan and Jo Lindsay, have made significant changes since taking over two years ago – and will open a museum on the site.

An overhaul at the 145-ha Discombe Rd property started in January, and most of the project will be completed within the next month or so.

“We’ve basically remodelled the whole property,” said Brendan, a former Leamington rugby player turned-businessman who started his multimillion-dollar plastics company Sistema in his Cambridge garage in the 1980s and sold it in 2016.

The couple took over the farm in April 2017, and set out to future proof it at the start of this year.

“We basically bulldozed everything straight after the horses left for the sales on January 20,” said Lindsay.

In addition to the overhaul – which includes a new hospitality centre, a new central office building, a new top-of-the-line

stallion barn, yearling barn, serving barn, mare prep, parade areas, stallion walk ways, drainage, new driveway, fencing, paddock resurfacing and staff house upgrades – the site will soon feature an interactive museum for educational visits.

The Lindsays have brought in curator Kirsty McGuire to help research, plan, source memorabilia and advise on the project, and a planning team presented a concept plan for the new building this week. All going to plan the museum could be ready as early as the start of next year, featuring an interactive timeline of the stud’s history with videos from Cambridge Stud founder Sir Patrick Hogan, photos from throughout the years and possibly even a life-size Sir Tristram horse – depicting Cambridge Stud’s founding stallion which became the world’s leading sire for individual Group One winners.

They hope to attract school visits to the museum.

Jo Lindsay described the journey so far with Cambridge Stud as a bit of everything – fun, exciting and sometimes difficult.

“We’ve got a really good staff base and

Local tradesmen have been brought in for the seven-month project, completely rebuilding all the stud barns.

everyone’s really on the page.”

The Sir Tristram horse statue still greets visitors at the main entrance of Cambridge Stud, along with its towering old trees, but they’re now accompanied by new buildings, re-landscaped paddocks and the stud’s first car park.

Around 20 tradesmen have been on site most days during the stud overhaul, some

days with 50 people working on site. Supplies have been sourced as close to home as possible, with concrete pads made locally, cladding from Putaruru, roofing from Auckland, steel work made in New Zealand, and largely Cambridge contractors.

“They’re all local here, we’ve tried to use as much of the local trades and that sort of thing as we can,” said Jo.

Two new resident stallions have arrived at Cambridge Stud – but one is already off the service list.

The Lindsays purchased 40 new broodmares to be serviced by the world-renowned stallions – Roaring Lion and Almanzor, who arrived at the stud last Saturday from the UK and France respectively.

Released from quarantine, Roaring Lion had only been in his paddock for 15 minutes when symptoms of colic were noted. He was transferred to Cambridge Equine Hospital immediately for emergency surgery, which was largely successful thanks to the swift actions of the vet team, Jo said.

He went in for a second surgery on Thursday morning last week after showing symptoms of discomfort. This week he remained in a stable condition but still very much in recovery.

As a result his services to Cambridge Stud would be withdrawn for the 2019 breeding season.

Almanzor remains at the stud, spending time in the recently completed “five-star” stallion barn along with resident stallions Tavistock, Burgundy and Sir Tristram’s great grandson Embellish. Over the years the Cambridge Stud’s stallion roster has been responsible for 134 individual Group One winners.

Now on his second season at Cambridge Stud, Almanzor’s first foals with the stud are due to be born any day now, the first of the 2019 season.

“It’s a really hard and tough job for our staff over August to November, foaling is every night, it can be raining or freezing cold but they’re so dedicated and they just love it with a passion,” said Jo. Cambridge Stud will host three public stallion parades this month, showcasing Tavistock, Almanzor, Burgundy and Embellish. All are welcome to attend the parades at Cambridge Stud, 74 Discombe Road, at 2pm on August 11, 2pm on August 18 and 2.30pm on August 25.

Students present bold projects

By Viv Posselt

A Cambridge High School initiative trialling innovative learning pathways had its first ‘airing’ on August 5 when students presented their work to a panel of historical experts.

The Year 9 students are part of CHS’s new Navigation Stream, a class headed by CHS assistant principal Marcel Kuijpers to bring core curriculum subjects together in a project-based format around four focus areas – Community Action, Creative Design, Problem Solving, and Future Studies.

The ‘Community Action’ segment linked statistics and social studies in a collaborative partnership with Cambridge Museum; students had to craft a project that was relevant and had the potential to become a resource for the museum. On August 5, they were given five minutes each to present their projects to a panel comprising the Cambridge museum’s Kathryn Parsons and Chelsea Tairi, and Cambridge Historical Society’s Grant Middlemiss, Bev and Bruce Dean, Roger Gordon and David Payne.

“The Navigation Stream is a new class this year, one in which teachers across the core subjects work together in an environment of enquiry-based learning,” Marcel explained.

He said it was intended to provide another learning pathway aimed at developing 21st century learners and ‘life-ready individuals’.

“According to the World Economic Forum, the top

10 skills most desired by future employers will include complex problem-solving, critical thinking, creativity, people management, emotional intelligence, co-ordinating with others, judgement and decision-making, service orientation, negotiation skills and cognitive flexibility.”

Four CHS teachers working in pairs make up the Navigation Stream team, and students spend 12 hours a week in the four courses offered.

Ayla Montgomerie, left, and Lucy Callender created a Cambridge Navigation Guide.

“Students will have the option to continue with the Navigation Stream in Year 10, and potentially into the senior school,” said Marcel. “The course is designed so that students wishing to move back into a more traditionallystructured course could do so at the end of Year 9 as they will have covered the same content as those in the mainstream.”

Among the students presenting to the panel was Luke Philip, 13. With the help of his dad Glenn, he built a model of Cambridge’s high-level bridge and presented it with a booklet outlining his work and the history of the bridge.

Lucy Callender and Ayla Montgomerie produced a Cambridge Navigation Guide that linked to a website they

had created to relate the town’s history. Several groups used technology to link with websites they had created; some focused their attention on the town’s sports heroes and clubs, and horseracing, and one was a project offering maps, photographs and videos of mountain bike tracks in Te Miro.

Another produced an online 3-D version of the clock tower, while others covered the history of transport in Cambridge, local Maori mythology, and even local criminal history.

Cambridge Museum manager Kathryn Parsons, CHS assistant principal and Navigation Stream programme director Marcel Kuijpers, and social sciences teacher Patrick Woodlock.

Ruben Walkley-Shute presented his 3-D ‘Minecraft’ view on the clocktower.

Daniel Stott, left, and Rohan Melis used QR codes to present Cambridge’s history.

Feedback from the panel was overwhelmingly positive.

Marcel said the students learned a great deal through the process and Cambridge Museum manager Kathryn Parsons said: “We were impressed with the students’ work and are really looking forward to putting them on display or making it available via the website”.

Craft day generates local interest Leamington Women’s Institute hosted a craft day last month on behalf of the Waikato East Federation of Women’s Institutes.

It is believed to have been the first time in many years that the local group has hosted the event for the Waikato East Federation.

“They may have many years ago, but certainly not in recent times,” said Leamington WI president, Leah Laurence. “While we didn’t have as many members take part as we would have liked, we were thrilled with the numbers of local people who turned up to have a look.”

The craft day was held at the Cambridge Senior Citizens hall on July 17.

The Waikato East Federation encompasses nine WI clubs with over 130 individual members. Many of their members were on hand to demonstrate and show craft work being made for next year’s 99th WI New Zealand AGM and conference, to be held in Nelson in May 2020 – among them a scabbard for scissors and an unusually crafted pincushion.

“We had members there who also brought along other crafts to demonstrate,” said Shirley Morris, Waikato East Federation treasurer.

Leamington WI hopes the craft day will see their membership swell from its current 11. The group’s current members cross a wide age range and do a variety of crafts. Shirley has recently launched a Leamington WI Facebook page, which is already proving popular.

The group meets monthly at Leah Laurence’s home in Cambridge. Anyone wanting to find out more should contact Leah on 823 4635, Shirley on 021 230 2484, or leave a message at the Leamington WI Facebook page.

New ladies lunch club formed in Cambridge

The Resthaven Foundation has announced a new community liaison arrangement that links it with Lyceum House to present what it is calling the ‘Ladies Lunch Club’.

Both organisations are charitable trusts, and the move is seen as one that brings them together in a fundraising initiative that fits the ethos of both.

The Resthaven Foundation was established to advance the care of ageing people within the Cambridge, wider Waipa and Matamata/Piako communities. Resthaven’s community liaison officer, Gaylene Callaghan, said the Cambridge Resthaven Community Trust had been formed primarily to build community awareness of care and provide a platform for resourcing the initiatives needed to support that care.

“This includes the provision of infrastructure, advance care options, equipment and specialist education within the aged care sector,” she said. “It also aims to provide continued staff education to maintain the high standard of care and comfort for residents and members of the community who may, at times, access our respite care facility.”

Gaylene said the gap between expectations and available funding is increasing, which meant fundraising was a large part of the Resthaven Foundation’s activities.

“With this in mind, we have gone off-site to hold community lunches for women at a central location. The Lyceum Club overlooks the village green … our lunches will be convivial and enjoyable, and this fits perfectly with the Lyceum House ethos.”

The first of the lunches, which is open to women in the community and to Lyceum House members, will be held at the Lyceum premises at 20 Dick Street on Friday August 30, starting at 12.30pm. The theme for the day will be supporting the Cancer Society’s Daffodil Day. Bookings and more information, including around cost, are through Resthaven (07-827 6097), or via email at gaylene.c@ resthaven.org.nz.

The cut-off for bookings is Thursday, August 22.

Power company wants to connect

By Caitlan Johnston

New Zealand’s first Maori power company says it is on a mission to raise funds for initiatives that are sacred to New Zealand.

Nau Mai Ra was started by Hamilton based Ezra Hirawani after he decided he wanted to reconnect with his Maori roots while making use of his business degree. He has also had help from contractor Ben Armstrong.

The company says it is in early stages of development and for that reason has been uncomfortable with media attention, even tough it has taken on customers.

Its head offices in Frankton have yet to be dressed in advertising, the company is still working on livery and has technical and design team of about 11 people working on developments, Nau Mai Ra pledges to put a portion of power bills into Māori organisations such as kura.

“I spent some time in China and they asked me to speak in my mother tongue, I spoke in English and they became very confused and offended as they thought Te Reo Maori was New Zealand’s language, which it is, but I couldn’t speak it and that upset me,” he said.

“Our personal dream is that one day after we feel confident [enough] in ourselves with the efforts we have put into learning tikanga and Te Reo that we will be able to go back to our respective marae and whanau and be welcomed home.”

He says the company is in a “secure trial” but is taking on customers in Te Awamutu and working with them to monitor their systems.

The company claims to offer “a great price” but doesn’t want potential customers to focus on this.

“Yes, we do offer a great price but that’s not the reason we invite people to join, we want people to join because they want to give back to Te Ao Maori and who have the desire to see the indigenous culture of New Zealand not only survive

but thrive.”

He said he had partnered with several industry experts, including people who have experience in New Zealand’s larger power companies, to bring Nau Mai Ra alive.

The company was still developing its brand image and Facebook page – which it uses to sign up customers - and he said it had made a profit in its first few months.

In a written statement he wrote: “we are in a secure trial, which means we are working with our early adopters (customers) to make sure that all of our computer systems and business processes work as we hoped and so far it is going really well”.

To date it had raised $85 a month as passive income for a Te Awamutu based school and in future funds would go to kura kaupapa, marae and kohanga.

“Our initiative is set up to ensure the survival and revival of Te Ao Maori while charging you less or the same for your power supply as you pay now.”

Monthly column from the Cambridge Citizens Advice Bureau I’m being targeted by a bully at work – what can I do?

If you believe you are being bullied, try to get moral support from colleagues, friends or family. Keep a record of each incident (and note who else was present at the time) and bring it to the attention of your employer. Follow it up with a letter which outlines what has been discussed, and any actions which were agreed to.

If you aren’t comfortable talking to your employer, you could talk to your trade union representative or the health and safety officer (because bullying is an issue of workplace health and safety) at your work and ask them to talk to your employer.

Alternatively, you may find it easier to write your employer a letter based on the information you have noted down.

If your employer doesn’t take action, it might be appropriate to start a personal grievance procedure against them for either subjecting you to bullying behaviour, or for lack of action over your complaint against a bully.

Another option, if you believe you were targeted because of discrimination against your gender, age, religious, political or ethical beliefs, race, marital, family or employment status, sexual orientation, or a disability, is to lay a complaint to the Human Rights Commission - 0800 496 877, www.hrc.co.nz.

If you want to resign, try to avoid doing so at least until you have received advice (e.g. from your union, your lawyer or Community Law Centre – 0800 529 482, communitylaw.org.nz/centre/waikato.

FAITH IN CAMBRIDGE Today we launch an new opinion series in the Cambridge News with contributions from our religious leaders. Faith in Cambridge is planned to run on a monthly basis.

Remembering our past, and sacrifices

By Murray Smith

Anniversaries can be useful things. Be they personal anniversaries or ones on a larger scale, some are wonderful, others are painful, evoking recall of past events. Anniversaries can also serve as reminders of historic moments that predate our lifetime.

Recently I read an article from a newspaper dated 5th July 1869.

That’s 150 years ago almost to the month, so an ‘anniversary’ of sorts I guess. The article described a time when unfathomable events in our Waipā District happened during the aftermath of the unjust Land Wars and the colonial grabbing and confiscation of Maori land. Such an anniversary, hopefully holds us accountable to the past while creating strong aversion to ever perpetuating such injustices again.

Scroll on 100 years to July 1969, we reach another significant historic anniversary that we’ve recently commemorated. The landing of a ‘manned’ spacecraft on the moon.

Despite silly conspiracy theories that attempt to refute evidence this event took place, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin crewed the Apollo Lunar Module Eagle becoming the

first humans to step onto the lunar surface.

For those of us back then, who sat in front of flickering black and white TV’s emitting ghostly, grainy images, seeing a spacesuit clad astronaut floating down a ladder with the glass globe of his helmet reflecting the light was unforgettable. We gazed in wonderstruck silence, mesmerised by the impossible sight of men walking on the moon.

Such an anniversary of witnessing the first moon landing, triggers people’s memory banks, activating other detail such as where they were, who they were with and what they were doing at that moment.

As kid I nearly shook hands with the Queen. Well sort of. At least I could have possibly touched her if I’d lunged a tiny bit, reaching into the back seat of the shiny black car where Her Majesty sat enthroned waving benignly at adoring subjects. I convinced myself she looked directly at me as her motorcade crawled slowly along crowd-lined streets a stone-throw from our house. My seriously close encounter with the Queen is a vivid memory.

It was 1963 and because of it, I can locate many details relevant to my life at that time!

So anniversaries can have a positive effect.

In the life of the Christian Church anniversaries are celebrated, notably Christmas and Easter. But there is one celebration that is commemorated that is not bound merely to annual observation. It’s the communion service.

Inaugurated by Christ before His sacrificial death on the cross, it can be celebrated anytime…informally or formally by His followers.

It provides a point of reflection. It also triggers remembrance of all He did and the historical context of that time.

Being ‘reminded’ is important.

Rudyard Kiplings poem “Recessional” is succinct.

Lest we forget.

School’s got talent

By Charlotte Mitchell

Every year our school asks itself the same question – Does Cambridge High School have talent? Each year the school has managed to answer with an affirmative by way of the CHS Got Talent show.

The 2019 show, before a packed audience, presented a diverse range of acts, including pianists, flutists, singers, guitarists, with two charismatic hosts Lily Lawless and James Santner providing the laughs between acts with witty but corny puns and intricate costume changes.

Both said they were blown away by the talent on show.

“I can only imagine how many hours would have been put into these pieces,” said James, a music student himself. “I think we can all agree that their work has well and truly paid off.”

Lucy Charlton and Rachel Clarke were announced as winners after performing a beautiful collection of songs. Runner up was Nate Henson with his solo performance on the guitar, and people’s choice went to the band Alfie.

The judges – who included Breena Herewini, a former music and drama student at the school, Hamilton East MP Jamie Strange, and the school’s new sports and cultural director Guy Ockenden, also a former music teacher – said each act deserved

recognition. “Picking a finalist would not be an easy task,” Jamie Strange said.

The students weren’t the only ones to present their abilities.

The “Teachers Band” provided a very groovy and energetic piece.

Former student Jesse Tuwhangai was impressed with her past teachers, saying she “never knew that they were so talented and could hold an audience like that”.

Praise must go to Taasha Connon, Callum Trower and the school’s Arts and Cultural committee, who worked tirelessly to put the night together. The event is looked forward to each year by students, and did not disappoint.

The question of “Does Cambridge High School have talent?” was once again answered this year with a resounding and undoubted yes. – Charlotte Mitchell is a CHS student

Experience of a “lifetime” Andrei’s win –

By Sophie Iremonger

He travelled for 30 hours and played the next day, but reckoned the biggest challenge was finding something he recognised when it was time for dinner.

Bowler Bruce Sayer was recapping on his time in South Korea where he represented New Zealand at the International Bowls for the Disabled World Championships.

Sayer was one of two Waipā members of the 12-strong team – also there was Te Awamutu’s Chen Naude, and they teamed up in the pairs.

“It was good, a lifetime experience really, my main goal was just to go over there and do well and be proud,”

the Cambridge Bowling Club member said.

Sayers damaged his spinal cord as a result of a fall and after having rods inserted in his back has 80 percent feeling from the chest down.

“You’ve got to get on with it. I’ve set myself the goal of doing well and just keep on going.”

His spot on the world stage came little over a year after he took up the sport.

He competed in the pairs alongside Naude to finish 16th out of 86 teams, after losing by one point to Singapore.

Sayers also recorded two wins in the singles before being knocked out in the first round. Naude followed soon

Bruce Sayers teamed up with Te Awamutu’s Chen Naude.

after when he was knocked out in the second.

“I figured we had to get at least a win, and we managed to do that. It was a very big challenge, especially travelling 30 hours to get there and playing the very next day.

“It was completely different to playing here, you’ve got to really step up.

“But that’s what life’s about, taking the opportunities that you get, or you’re never going to get anywhere.”

Temperatures reached 38 degrees during the six-day competition and adding to the challenge was an extremely foreign diet, including eggs with black yolks.

“Competing was alright, the only thing I found hard was getting used to the food,” Bruce said, admitting he’d lost a little weight during the trip.

“I’m a Kiwi man, I like my burgers and that sort of thing. It took a while to find something recognisable to eat.”

The best part of the trip, he said, was the comradery between players and the love of the game, and playing amongst people who also had a disability.

“We were helping each other, that was the good thing about it. It was a lovely feeling to be involved with it.”

He returns just as keen to compete against the best of the bowlers at home.

“I enjoy it even more - because it’s more of a challenge for me,” he said.

Sayers still continues to play in regional tournaments most weeks, and is a regular at the club on Thornton Road.

“What’s most important is to keep it up,” he said. “It may be a bit of a summer sport, but when you’ve got the opportunity to keep playing, and keep those friendships going, why not?”

Gunnar’s stunna

The bright light of New Zealand boxing outshone a veteran, and another Karapiro fight night was confirmed last weekend.

Andrei Mikhailovich (pictured right) outpointed Gunnar “The Stunna” Jackson to win the vacant New Zealand (Pro Box NZ version) Middleweight weight title, and Jackson duly announced his retirement.

The venue - Sir Don Rowlands Centre in Lake Karapiro – was also confirmed by promoter Nigel Elliot for another evening of professional boxing on November 23.

Mikhailovich was taken the distance for the first time in his career by the veteran Jackson, but he was a clear winner over 10 rounds – getting a unanimous decision from the judges. Two gave him eight rounds, the third nine.

Given what happened after the fight, it was appropriate that the crowd were treated to the full 10 rounds.

Mikhailovich paraded his boxing skills, landing the jabs first, loud power punches to the body and heavy punches through Jackson’s guard.

Equally impressive was

the young fighter’s composure as Jackson sought to unsettle him verbally.

By the seventh Jackson was clearly feeling the effects of Mikhailovich’s power.

The post-match talk followed a familiar route as Mikhailovich – who is looking forward to becoming a father this month - said all the “trash talk” between the two was part of the game, he had a lot of respect for Jackson and was honoured to fight him.

When Jackson took the mic the crowd was silenced as he congratulated Mikhailovich and predicted he would become a world champion.

Battle lines drawn Thompson helps Cambridge’s classic Leamington-versus-Hautapu rivalry will be alive and well this month with the return of the Battle of the Bridge event at the Leamington rugby grounds.

After taking a hiatus in 2018 the event returns this year on August 17 and a feature will be the Stan Meads-Peace Cup rugby game at 1pm, followed by the main Battle of the Bridge clash at 2.45 between Hautapu and Leamington.

The game is for players aged 30 and over and with some veterans in their late 50s lining up, it is expected to provide some great entertainment.

Netball will also be on, starting at 1pm, with women’s teams from either club battling it out.

And at the 40-minute rugby whistle female supporters from both clubs will be encouraged onto the field for a half-time tug-o-war match to earn the Ladies Tug of War Shield.

Organisers hope to see Cambridge residents come out in force wearing their red or blue colours.

The previous event in 2017 resulted in a 17-all draw in the rugby, with Leamington winning the netball 24-20.

Waipā honours to Cambridge

Cambridge is back in the running for the top spot on the school boys’ lacrosse league table after scoring a late winner to beat Te Awamutu 8-7 last weekend.

The team has St John next up and coach Anthony Warrington says with some “lucky results” his team can still quaify for the playoffs.

Te Awamutu College went into last weekend’s game top of the table with Cambridge fifth after a loss to Hamilton Boys.

The win over Te Awamutu lifts Cambridge to third, but it was hard going.

Warrington reported Cambridge went down 4-1 in the first half, “nabbing a few fouls and some hard time in the sin bin”’.

“This gave Te Awamutu College the edge they needed in the first half.

“At half time I had to try to reel the lads in. We were letting ourselves down because we can play better than we were. I told them to stick to the game-plan that we’ve been working on for the last six weeks and to play controlled defence. When we came back on after half-time we were a different team.”

Goals started to roll in for Cambridge, bringing the score up to 4-all. Te Awamutu then managed to get a few shots past the goalie followed by another Cambridge come back which evened the score at 7-all.

“With a few minutes to go we got the goal we needed to put us 8-7 ahead.

From here all we needed to do was keep possession to win.

“We had a bit of a scare when we lost the ball, but we managed to get it back quickly with some great hustle on defence. We could have had another

go at the goal in the final minute of the game, but it wasn’t worth risking losing possession to have Te Awamutu equalise on the fast-break, so we held the ball and despite all the pressure TA put on us we kept it until the final whistle.”

Player of the day went to Year 9 goalie Jacob D’Ath who made several show-stopping saves during the game.

“At one point in the game he had a Year 13 player charging at the goal towards him on a fast break. … Instead of flinching or moving out of the way, Jacob stood his ground and moved into the shot and blocked it, putting his body on the line and keeping us in the I will not be moved: Goalie Jacob D’ath was named player of the day. game.”

Trampers explore Arapuni

Cambridge Rampring Club members did a bit of a “mixed bag” for their fortnightly day tramp and enjoyed a trip to the Arapuni Suspension Bridge and Power Station.

A good bit of history surrounds this feat of engineering and the extent people went to to protect and camouflage the power station with the threat of invasion by the Japanese during World War II. As the walk started early morning mist in the surroundings added to the atmosphere – on the return back the sun helped reveal great views. Once over the bridge members walked down the roadway, across the car bridge and a short distance along the road, starting the 6km section of the Waikato River Trail, a shared trail for walkers and bikers providing lovely scenery along the

river with abundant tui bird song.

It’s an easy undulating section, finishing at the Little Waipa Reserve. After a morning tea stop the group returned back along the same trail.

Once back they took a 15 minute drive to Jim Barnett’s Reserve on Waotu South Road and enjoyed lunch before meandering around 10 different tracks (track pamphlets were available at the reserve). The tracks are of varying lengths but all are easy walking with a few short rising sections - good for people of most fitness levels and the whole family.

The reserve is a great example of native bush for all to enjoy and a good option to take any overseas visitors to.

Medal haul for swimmers

A team of 24 young swimmers from the St Peter’s Swimming Club have returned from the South Australian Swim Champs with a haul of 36 medals – including 11 gold, 13 silver and 12 bronze.

“They did really well and came away with some good medals,” team coach Aly Fitch said.

During a five-day meet several of the swimmers recorded personal-best times, and club swimmers Rylee Britton, Hunter Read, Katelyn Flynn, Minnie Glover, Shay Dixon and Danielle Goblin were all multiple-medal winners.

“It was a fun experience and I would love to do it again,” said Danielle, who earned gold in the 50m freestyle final and silver in the hundred metre freestyle.

“We all supported each other very well, and that just helped us all get through the week.”

Shay Dixon secured two golds for himself – in the 200m fly and the 1500m freestyle, as well as silver for the 400m freestyle and bronze for the 200m backstroke.

Katelyn Flynn wasn’t expecting to earn a medal but came home with three – two golds for the 100 and 50m fly, and bronze for the 50m backstroke.

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.

Is this the year of the lemon? My tree is laden and so are the trees of all our neighbours. Gifts of our lemons are being refused — for the first time in my lemon-growing life.

Mine are the Meyer variety which do not have the same tartness as the firmer Lisbon lemons. However, they do juice easily. Store these beauties in the fridge to keep them firm but return the lemons to room temperature before use so they juice more readily. Pop them briefly in the microwave or warm them in hot water.

Lemon juice is an excellent substitute for vinegar in dressings.

Many people swear by a squeeze of lemon in warm water first thing in the morning to aid digestion and others wipe juice on their faces to enhance their skin. Lemon juice is high in vitamin C and combined with warm water sweetened with honey is the oldfashioned remedy to keep colds at bay.

Lemon juice and finely grated rind can be frozen separately in ice cube trays for addition to dressings, sauces and bakes. But it’s not just the lemon that can be enjoyed. Young lemon leaves can be added whole or shredded to rice, casseroles or soups to enhance flavour, or threaded on skewers with lamb and courgettes for Greek-style kebabs.

GLUTEN-FREE LEMON CAKE This is similar to the wedding cake I made for my son and his wife.

300g large mashing potatoes 200g butter, softened 200g caster sugar 4 eggs 175g almond meal (ground almonds) 2 teaspoons baking powder finely grated rind 3 lemons Lemon Syrup: juice 3 lemons 6 tablespoons sugar Peel the potatoes and boil. Drain and mash well to make 250g of mashed potato. Cool.

Preheat the oven to 180°C. Lightly grease and line a 20-21cm deep round cake pan.

Beat the butter and caster sugar, until light. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the almond meal, baking powder, mashed potato and lemon rind.

Pour into the cake pan. Bake for 45-50 minutes until a skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean.

Stand for 5 minutes then turn onto a wire rack to cool.

Meanwhile, stir the lemon juice and sugar on low heat until the sugar is dissolved. With a fine skewer make a few holes in the cake. Drizzle about 1/4 of the syrup over the hot cake. Serve the remainder on the side.

This cake can be frozen in wedges.

SAVOURY LEMON RELISH

Great served with fish, chicken and pork.

200ml white wine vinegar 200g white sugar 6-8 lemons To make the relish, place the vinegar and sugar in a heavy-based saucepan. Simmer, gently stirring occasionally, until the mixture is syrupy.

Top and tail the lemons. Quarter them lengthwise then thinly slice.

Add to the hot syrup and cook for about 1 1/2 hours on a very low heat — or in a slow cooker — until the lemons are soft. Pour into a container, cool and cover tightly. Refrigerate, until required. Keeps for about 1 month. Makes about 1 1/2 cups.

Wash the lemons and remove any stalks and blemishes.

Halve the lemons and remove the pips. Roughly chop. Place the lemons in batches in a food processor adding about 3/4 of a cup of water each time. Process until evenly chopped. Repeat until all the fruit is chopped.

Pour all the water and fruit into a large saucepan. Bring to boiling point and simmer for 1 hour. Scoop out any elusive pips when they rise to the top.

Remove from the heat and stir in the sugar, until well dissolved.

Add the gin and ginger. Boil rapidly for about 10 minutes or until the marmalade reaches setting point — 104°C. Ensure it does not stick on the base by stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon.

Scoop off any foam from the top and place in a bowl to use on your toast the next day.

Remove the marmalade from the heat and pour into hot sterilised jars then seal. Makes about 9 cups.

FRIDAY AUGUST 9, 2019

It’s down to the conditions Cambridge trainer Mark Brooks is hoping that his jumpers El Disparo and El Fernando will be met by a better track at Riccarton on Wednesday for the second day of the Grand National Festival of Racing.

The geldings started last Saturday, the first day of the meeting, and Brooks thought the going was too tough for both runners.

El Disparo will tackle the feature race of the day, the Hospitality New Zealand Canterbury 130th Grand National Hurdles (4200m), and Brooks believes the son of El Hermano will put in a good showing after his third-placing in the Sydenham Hurdles (3100m).

“I was pretty happy with his run on

Saturday, he probably just hit the wall the last little bit,” Brooks said.

“I thought the track was a touch heavy for him, so hopefully these frosts over the last couple of mornings just might dry it out a little bit.”

El Disparo arrived with his stablemate at Riccarton last Friday after a two day trip and Brooks believes the eight-year-old gelding will improve off Saturday’s run.

“He had a month between runs and I hadn’t done that much with the big trip down here and two races within four days, so he should improve a little bit with Saturday’s run under his belt I think.”

Brooks said the eight-year-old has pulled up well after Saturday’s contest and he is looking forward to Wednesday’s

El Disparo “just hit the wall” last Saturday.

test with the gelding.

“He’s been good since Saturday, he’s happy and has eaten everything. If the track is slightly better than it was on Saturday, I’d be quietly confident that he’ll be a chance.”

TAB bookmakers earlier this week set Bad Boy Brown as a $3.70 race favourite for the race, while El Disparo has been labelled a $9.50 winning chance.

Brooks will also line-up El Fernando in the Racecourse Hotel and Motor Lodge Steeplechase (3200m) and he said the son of El Hermano has taken no harm from falling at the final fence in Saturday’s Maiden Steeplechase (3200m).

“He looked like he was getting a bit tired and he had a lie down at the last,” Brooks said. “He seems to have taken no harm from that, so we will go again on Wednesday.

“He was going well down the back straight. The steeplechase fences are on the outside, so the track is a bit better, and he wasn’t handling the heavier ground up the home straight.

“It’s the same for him, a couple of fine days and a few frosts, it might be a touch better, so that might suit him too.”

Brooks doesn’t have any set plans with either jumper after Wednesday, however, he was toying with the idea of taking El Disparo across the Tasman to contest the Grand National Steeplechase (4500m) at Ballarat later this month.

“I had the slightest inkling that if El Disparo won well on Wednesday, and travelled home well, I’d consider taking him to Australia for the Grand National Steeplechase.

“But it just might be a bit too much travelling for him to get there this year.”

In Brief Richardson mourned

Group One-winning owner Scott Richardson died on Monday after a lengthy illness. Former stock broker Richardson was a director of the Auckland Racing Club for 11 years until 2002. He then turned his attention to his 40-ha property in Matamata which he called Flemington Farm.

Allan heads west

Melbourne Cup-winning jockey Tony Allan will continue his riding career in the Queensland.

Allan, who won the 1988 Melbourne Cup on Empire Rose, has accepted an offer to be stable rider for former New Zealand trainer Paddy Busuttin, who is making a comeback to training at Tony Allan Deagon.

Tommyra rested

Matamata hurdler Tommyra has been sidelined until next year. Tommyra was pulled up with three fences to jump in the Wellington Hurdles at Trentham last month.

Ballot exempton

Horses who finish in the top three placings of the Gr.2 Waikato Guineas (2000m) will now be exempt from the ballot for the Gr.1 Vodafone New Zealand Derby (2400m). This amendment to the balloting conditions of the Derby comes after a review by the Auckland Racing Club’s management and board.

Flattered to deceive

Cambridge trainer Samantha Logan’s plans to add Lambrusco to her small team of jumpers are on ice after he proved too strong for his better-performed rivals, winning by one and three-quarter lengths over 2100 metres at Te Rapa last Saturday.

PALM BEACH LATE NIGHT Mindy (The Office) Kaling and Emma Thompson do not disappoint in this smart, funny and refreshing film. Kaling hits on a lot of different issues, from racism to ageism to gender disparity, and puts a mirror up to our society and ourselves, but in a really clever and playful way. This makes the tone of the film light in spite of the seriousness of these issues. Along with that, the acting is superb, the pacing rather smooth, and it is genuinely thought provoking. If smart and witty comedy is your thing, this is definitely worth a watch. For a nice night out, it’s funny, charming, and inspirational.

A breezy summer fun film that focuses on the characters’ onscreen chemistry. Frank (Bryan Brown) is having a big birthday party so he invites his best friends Leo (Sam Neill) and Billy (Richard E Grant), with their spouses and families, to his house in PALM BEACH. It doesn’t take long for the grudges, old and new, to emerge and the old secrets refuse to be buried. The commotion that rocks the three families threatens to ruin the holiday. What will it take to get things back on track? Director Rachel Ward (who is also credited as one of the writers) gives an unexpected depth to a simple story, makes some basic ideas look interesting and fresh, and manages to deliver the point without preaching.

Some films are a remedy and a getaway from real life problems. See this movie and be this party’s crasher. You won’t want it to end.

Reds aiming for highest finish in 17 years Cambridge go into their final month of football’s Northern League with a realistic chance of achieving their highest ranking since 2002.

With four matches to go in their Lotto NRFL second division programme, the Reds sit fifth but are shooting for their best finish since taking third spot 17 seasons ago.

Cambridge finished fifth in 2004, 2006 and 2007 so the Reds will look to improve on that, starting with a win this weekend against relegation-threatened Northland FC. Northland play Cambridge at John Kerkhof Park at 3pm on Saturday, with their reserves teams playing a curtain-raiser at 12.30pm.

Northland almost caused a huge upset last weekend when leading second-placed Metro FC 1-0 until the Aucklanders snatched an equaliser six minutes into added time.

Cambridge took all three points when they beat Onehunga Mangere 1-0.

Leading scorer Josh Clarkin scored the winner after only four minutes – it was his 11th league and cup goal of the season.

After that, the Cambridge defence shut out the Aucklanders for their fourth clean sheet of the season.

Cambridge remain fifth on the table but are unlikely to catch league leaders Claudelands Rovers – who lost 4-1 to thirdplaced Manurewa – and Metro FC. In the early game on Mangere Mountain, a first-half goal by Onehunga Mangere’s Max Kwan was all that separated the Auckland side and Cambridge’s reserves.

In recent games, Cambridge have shown a much-improved resistance in defence, conceding only four times in their last three outings.

But the Reds’ second-stringers have lost their scoring touch and it proved costly at Mangere Domain.

In the WaiBOP Championship, Cambridge’s third team lost 3-0 at competition leaders Otorohanga, after the home side took a 1-0 lead into half-time.

Otorohanga’s goals came from Joe Camock, Nathaneal Wrack and Jack Connor.

The result brought a halt to Cambridge’s climb into midtable but the side gets its chance to regain winning form when Taupo FC come to John Kerkhof Park on Saturday (2.45pm).

In Waikato Division 3, Cambridge lost 3-1 to Melville United’s Old Boys at Gower Park after trailing 1-0 at the break.

Playing in trying conditions, Cambridge produced a much-improved performance after a heavy loss the previous week.

Scorer for Cambridge was Matthias Nickless who found the net for the first time this season.

In Waikato Division 4, Cambridge lost 4-1 at home to West Ham United’s Floppy Noodles with all the goals being scored in the first half.

Though Cambridge had a few early chances, the Hamilton visitors made the most of their opportunities and raced to a 4-0 lead within half an hour.

Cambridge found a goal of their own through Andrew Myers, his third of the season, as half-time approached.

The second half was even and hard-fought but neither team could find another goal.

The result leaves Cambridge in mid-table.

Meanwhile, Cambridge has again been chosen to host WaiBOP Football’s Waikato Finals Weekend`, which will be on August 24-25.

On August 24 John Kerkhof Park will be the venue for the final of the Waikato Cup between Melville United and Huntly Thistle, and the Plate final between Hamilton Wanderers and Otorohanga.

On August 25, Cambridge will host the finals of the Waikato Women’s Cup and Plate.

The finalists for those competitions will be known after semi-finals on Sunday.
