Our enduring tree

Friday saw the first of 33 nights of Christmas glow in the CBD with the lighting of the Cambridge Community Christmas Tree, captured here over a time lapse by Michael Jeans.

Cambridge officially has its own public Christmas tree, put together through a community effort and lit up for the first time last week.

The Christmas lights, co-funded by the Cambridge Community Board (CCB) and Cambridge Lions, will shine each night from 9pm through to the new year, on one of the long-standing fir trees on Victoria Square.

Cambridge Community Board chair Sue Milner said the project was a great demonstration of the community working together, and a “fitting end to a magical year for Cambridge”, being crowned ‘Most Beautiful Large Town’ at the Keep New

Zealand Beautiful Awards.

A few dozen people turned out for the initial light-up on Friday, along with some of the main organisers behind the project, former CCB members Philip Coles, Julie Epps and Mike Pettit, and chairperson Milner.

“This year we decided to have no fan-fair, but we’ll hopefully grow it more each year,” said Philip Coles. “We’ve got some ideas.

“We would like to get the community involved to do further decorations, after all it is the Cambridge Community Christmas Tree, and that can help contribute towards

defending the ‘Most Beautiful Town’ award.”

Coles said there were lots of people to thank, namely, Ron Grim from Steen and Morrow for installing the lights, Cambridge Hire and Waipa Networks for the tree hoist, Mr Davidson and the Year 10 woodwork class at Cambridge High for making the star, Cambridge Resene for providing the star paint, the Cambridge Cricket Club for the fencing around the base, the Cambridge Lions and CCB for cofounding the project, Sally Sheedy from Waipa District Council, and Waipa Civil.

Council pay I find it appalling that these new Waipa District Council members have the gall to vote themselves a salary increase, while reducing our Deputy Mayor’s salary by $10,000. I do not believe it is a gender issue but simply envy. I would find it interesting as to how many terms had Graham Webber’s past payments, (as our previous deputy) evidently been deemed a fair and just reward.

Cambridge cannot afford to lose councillors of Liz Stolwyk’s calibre, and who would blame her if one day she walked. Surely the fairest system would have been (due to the extra councillor) to take the total salaries package and give the same percentage increase on last year’s salaries to each elected member. Let those newly elected prove their value to our district, before voting themselves another rise.

Ian Dick Cambridge Pool costs I would like to comment on Waipa District Council’s reply to Bernard Westerbaan’s letter regarding additional expenditure required for the Cambridge Pool. Bernard raises some very thought-provoking questions that deserve an answer.

Council alludes that the additional expenditure of $500,000 plus required to fix the existing pool was anticipated. If it had been anticipated it would have been included within the budget as a scheduled item or as a non-scheduled contingency item, and there would be no requirement to seek for additional funds. Clearly, Council is confused here.

It is clear here from what little explanation that Council provides that the faults with

FUNDRAISER the existing pool have been most likely caused by compaction vibration caused by the mobilisation of heavy machinery around site during construction. Therefore, any competent Project Manager would seek to make a claim with the main contractor under their indemnity insurer to recover the costs incurred.

This would limit any exposure to the ratepayer for a project that has been full of financial dramas and cost overruns already.

(Abridged) Hayden Woods Te Awamutu The Waipa District Council responds: The additional works on the 50m pool are necessary due to the age of the existing pool and its associated assets. The outdoor pool was constructed in 1971 making it 48 years old and at the end of its 50year asset life. Some areas of the structure have deteriorated and there is evidence of old cracks, exposed reinforcing and corrosion on some of the pipework. The defects are not as a result of the adjacent construction works on the new building, therefore there is no claim against the contractor undertaking these construction works. Council had anticipated remedial works would be required due to the age of the pool. However, we were unable to determine the scope of the works until the existing pool was safely emptied and inspected, which includes both internal and external inspections to the pool tank and the balance tank (confined space entry required). Due to the unknown extent of the work this was not included in the scope of the contract for the new build as a contractor would not have been able to cost the works prior to knowing what would be needed. The inspections were untaken by a qualified structural engineer and costs assessed by independent quantity surveyor.

The Tivoli Cinema in Cambridge, with help from Rialto Distribution, is assisting those in the community less fortunate than most by screeding The Peanut Butter Falcon, a PG movie, on December 14.

A donation of children’s gifts, or Christmas Day specific food valued at over $10 will grant entry to the film, and the proceeds will go to charity.

Tivoli’s owner Karen Focus said the Salvation Army provided help for 70 families in the community and she urged movie goers to give generously.

There are 52 seats available.

“Please give generously,” she said.

“Please do not wrap gifts or food and please ensure each member of the family has an item to donate.”

The film is described as a modern Mark Twain style adventure telling the story of Zak, a young man with Down syndrome, who runs away from a residential nursing home to follow his dream of attending the professional wrestling school of his idol, The Salt Water Redneck. A strange turn of events pairs him on the road with Tyler, a small-time outlaw on the run, who becomes Zak’s unlikely coach and ally. Together they wind through deltas, elude capture, drink whisky, find God, catch fish, and convince Eleanor (Dakota Johnson), a kind nursing home employee charged with Zak’s return, to join them on their journey.

Bookings can be made by calling 823 5064 and the screening will be at 3.40pm.

It is wonderful to see reporting and information flows increasing, as we work together to reduce crime and hold offenders to account.

An offender will commit multiple crimes, so any opportunity to disrupt that activity is fantastic. Since my last column, the good work has continued. One investigation resulted in the execution of a search warrant at a local address. Stolen items from two separate burglaries were recovered there. It was great work by the staff helped by some great community intel!

On another day, a youth offender visiting from out of town found Cambridge wasn’t an easy mark. He was located and arrested for shoplifting through a combination of quick reporting by the shop (with clear CCTV) and an eagle eyed local who correctly

guessed what was going on, watched them from a safe distance and provided updates to Police. Awesome!

With the lighter evenings, it is nice to be able to get out after work to our local parks and reserves for some RnR. It is important to remember however, that while public reserves are there for us all to share, private land is not. In the Gudex road area, Maungakawa, farm owners have reported increasing problems with people trespassing, upsetting stock, generally hanging about drinking, leaving rubbish behind and damaging fences and paddocks.

The view is fantastic up there I know, but it can equally be seen from near the second carpark. There is no need to drive further on - unless on official farm business. If you have any information on this activity, please let us know (phone 105 or 0800 555111). If you are

in the habit of hanging out in this location yourself or know someone who is, please go elsewhere, and pass the message on.

Recently we received a call about a male at Lake Te Koo Utu who had approached and propositioned a woman and made offensive comments. A quick response meant Police were able to locate and speak to the male.

We hope it was an isolated incident, however if you have been the victim of any similar behaviour recently and didn’t report it, please now let us know. Any activity of this nature should be immediately reported to Police on 111.

Until next time, enjoy the sunshine but remember to Slip on a shirt, Slop on the sunscreen and Slap on a hat!

Wheels rolling Waipā thriving What’s in a for World Cup name?

By Sophie Iremonger

Waipā will get an economic boost from international class cycling starting today.

Hundreds of elite cyclists and thousands of spectators are in Cambridge for the fourth round of the Track Cycling World Cup at the Avantidrome.

The three day event, a Tokyo 2020 Olympic-qualifier, has attracted a record number of competitors from 44 nations. They include 20 world champions and over 500 riders and staff.

“This is shaping not only as the biggest event that we have hosted here at the Avantidrome, but arguably the hottest competition in a very important phase for countries towards their Olympic qualification,” said Cycling New Zealand chief Jacques Landry.

Cambridge hosted a round of the series in January when it attracted 7000 spectators.

Destination Cambridge and Cambridge i-Site CEO Miff Macdiarmid said it was a huge event for Cambridge, and expected a turnout of roughly 8000 spectators this year.

“There will be a big impact on restaurants, cafes and other local activities and shopping over the event,” she said.

“Accommodation is getting very full.”

She said compared to the January event, session times were more suited to allow visits to shop tomorrow morning and “grab lunch before heading out to the Avantidrome.”

Macdiarmid said attendees would be provided with an event programme, a new initiative this year, promoting local businesses and things to do in Cambridge along with a map guide.

“It’s an extremely well-run event, hence us getting another Track World Cup so soon after the last one.”

Cambridge Business Chamber CEO Kelly Bouzaid expected the event would create buoyancy in the Cambridge economy. “…it’s definitely great for our broader tourism market and provides an opportunity to showcase our wonderful town and local product.”

Cycling New Zealand has entered two teams into the UCI event, including 14 riders across the sprint and endurance disciplines.

The event, covered live on SKY, is $30 for adults to attend per session, and $15 for children.

Spectator tips

If you’re going to the cycling, these tips will help you enjoy the event experience: • No matter the weather outside, the venue will always be 25°C or more to ensure optimal competition conditions for the riders. Wear lightweight t-shirts and shorts and bring a water bottle. Chilled refreshments are available to purchase on site.

• Bike out to the Avantidrome along the Te Awa River Ride. You can lock up and leave your bike while you are enjoying the cycling – just don’t forget a light for heading home after the night session.

• Gates open one hour before racing, so get there early and enjoy the event atmosphere with food trucks and Good George’s outdoor bar.

• Tickets can be scanned via paper or mobile device screen.

• Tickets for the event are available to purchase from Ticketek. Visit www.trackworldcup.nz for more information.

Waipa District Mayor Jim Mylchreest addressing the 2019 Friends of Council gathering at the Mighty River Domain’s Don Rowlands Centre.

By Viv Posselt

Local governance has made significant strides over the past 30 years, says Waipa District Mayor Jim Mylchreest.

It was three decades ago that the Waipa District grew out of a local government reorganisation that saw the merging of six former independent councils, or parts of those councils. That move in October 1989 propelled Waipa from an era when, “parochialism was alive and well, with many still resisting change and jealously guarding their individual community assets,” to a region that has grown from a population of 36,000 to 56,000, and is the envy of many.

Addressing the 2019 Friends of Council gathering at Mighty River Domain’s Don Rowlands Centre, Mylchreest said the Waipa District Council today was in a “sound financial position”, with an independent assessment by the global Fitch Group giving it an AA- rating and predicting a stable medium outlook.

“This assessment is valuable, as it enables council to obtain a saving of 15 basis points on any long-term borrowing, which is already at a record low.”

He said council was on track to deliver its 2018-28 10 Year Plan with a major emphasis on the infrastructure needed to support the steady growth being experience districtwide.

“Growth in Cambridge is exceptional on the back of the completion of the Cambridge section of the expressway, with numerous residential developments underway or planned,” he said.

Of particular significance, he said, is the private plan change instigated by Mitch Plaw of APL (Architectural Profiles Ltd) - the country’s largest manufacturer of aluminium windows and doors - to rezone 56ha of industrial land at Hautapu. The

resulting development bordering the Waikato Expressway will be Waipa’s largest industrial park.

“Construction has already commenced on a massive glass manufacturing building, with the relocation of their aluminium extrusion business to the site over the next few years. It is fantastic that business owners like Mitch want to invest in the district. This development is the most transformative industrial development, I would suggest, in Cambridge’s history.”

Mylchreest spoke following the showing of a short video that captured some of Waipā’s highlights over the past year. They included 1200 new jobs in the district; employment growth of 5.4 percent; 1339 building consents processed (400 through the new online system); the delivery of $55.1 million in capital works and services, roads, water, wastewater and stormwater; and council investment of $21.6 million in the renewal of pipes, roads, treatment plant and reservoirs.

Among major projects started is the Waikeria wastewater pipeline and pump station; the securing of Te Awamutu’s treated water supply; and the installation of three waters (water, wastewater and stormwater) infrastructure to the Hautapu industrial area in Cambridge north.

Mylchreest said like other councils, Waipa could expect to be challenged in the medium to long term with climate change, environmental standards, the lack of social cohesion caused largely by the inequitable distribution of resources, and the move towards a carbon neutral economy.

“Councils can play an important role in supporting central government in resolving a number of these issues should they choose to include local government as the organisations closest to the people, and where these impacts will be felt first.”

The Cambridge News and its sister the Te Awamutu News has spent much of 2019 attempting to improve the quality and quantity of copy it provides you.

Good Local Media owner David Mackenzie recruited a former Waikato Times colleague, Roy Pilott, to drive the improvement.

Pilott held a series of senior editorial posts at the Times when Mackenzie was its general manager.

And the previous sentence is part of the reason you are reading this story.

“Print media around the country grappled for a long time with honorifics before the majority elected to drop them more than a decade ago,” Pilott said.

“It was long accepted that we ignored honorifics in sport, but other news was a different matter.

So when we dropped honorifics this year in the sister papers I was aware that some would see it as disrespectul and others would support it.

I do appreciate that many readers believe it deviates from the ‘community’ thread of our news.”

As a result of reader feedback, we want to take your pulse. Let’s debate the issue – should we use a story-by-story approach and make a decision on the basis of the type of story we are presenting? Should we restore honorifics to all general news stories? Are we simply worrying about nothing?

Vape store owner hits back

By Sophie Iremonger

A vape store owner in Te Awamutu says he wants to set the record straight following a call by Waipa and Auckland principals to usher in strict regulations on the growing trend of nicotine delivery.

Kevin Carroll, owner of one of five Vice Vape Co stores which opened on Jacobs St last weekend, agrees with much of the proposed regulations on vaping – requiring proof of age for online sales, and limiting the packaging and ‘glamorous’ advertising.

But he said banning the devices, or taking away the non-tobacco flavours, would take away a technology which helps smokers quit, or at least transition to a healthier alternative, and would simply be removing a product which adults should have the right to enjoy.

“Vaping is absolutely revolutionary, and at the end of the day it’s an adult choice,” he said. “It shouldn’t be seen as a means of enticing under 18s into smoking, any more than RTDs would into drinking alcohol, because there are controls are in place if you are a responsible retailer. But there’s always cowboys out there that will spoil it for everyone.”

He said an investigation by the Centre for Disease Control into 47 vaping-related deaths in the United States found they

involved a cheaper, black-market vape liquid with synthetic THC laced with Vitamin E acetate.

He said the acetate was used to make cheap liquids look like pharmaceutical grade vaping liquids.

The water-based vape liquids sold by retailers, he said, simply contain vegetable glycerine, propylene glycol, nicotine and flavours.

It was these “backyard” vape liquids that caused the serious problems abroad “because vitamin E acetate is an oil which coats your lungs and creates these problems”.

Carroll, a 20-year industry veteran with a masters in tobacco strategy, said rather than a blanket-approach to ban vaping, people should be given correct information so they could make an informed decision.

He said his own sales seemed to disprove the idea that vaping was a gateway into smoking cigarettes, but more often a gateway out of it.

“Our tobacco sales have dropped by 50 percent in the last three years, but that loss in tobacco sales has been gained in vaping, so you can see the transition. We’ve had a lot of success stories.”

He compared the idea to ban the sweet, fruity non-tobacco vape flavours in the same light as telling liquor store owners they could only sell one flavour of alcoholic beverage.

Kevin Carroll has opened his fifth Vice Vape Co store in Te Awamutu, and wants to set the record straight on the myths in the media around vaping.

“About 90 percent of our sales are flavoured liquid, vaping flavours are very important in this game. That’s what our customers tell us, if they remove the flavours they’ll just go back to smoking, because it’s a mental reminder of where they’ve come from. People love the flavours.

“Vaping helps them quit because they can reduce the nicotine levels in their vape liquid over time, and unlike patches or gum it still provides them with that hand-to-mouth habit. But at the same time

it’s something different, it’s something fruity. If you’re transitioning from a tobacco product, the last thing you want to be reminded of is a tobacco flavoured e-liquid.

“Where does the police state or the nanny state stop? At the end of the day this is an R18 product, if you’re an adult surely you should be given the benefit to make a decision whether you want a peach flavoured liquid or a tobacco flavoured liquid. It’s all about choice.”

Hipkins’ funding boost for schools

The Government’s education funding package announced this week is good news for Waipā schools. Education Minister Chris Hipkins said the capital injection in 2020 would be worth about $693 for every student and enabled school to bring forward urgent school property improvements. The one-off payment is the first project to be announced from the Government’s new package to future proof the economy and will see some schools receive up to $400,000 to spend on needed upgrades that have been put on the back burner. Large schools will receive the maximum $400,000 boost and the smallest schools can expect at least $50,000 no matter how small their roll.

The announcement was welcomed by Cambridge Principals Association head Wayne Donnellon.

“Any funding boost for property works is welcomed by schools,” he said.

“This boost will be most appreciated by smaller schools, as economies of scale often make it very difficult for these schools, with their existing funding, to do any significant modernisation projects or upgrade areas other than classrooms.”

He said for a school the size and age of Roto-o- rangi, “nearly our entire 5YA (fiveyear agreement funding) was taken up with essential infrastructure needs - replace water system, roofing, electrical work.

“The small amount left over would not make any significant modernisation of classrooms and we would have, yet again, just been tinkering with the existing spaces.

Now we have the opportunity to add the two amounts together and create a meaningful modification or upgrade our admin area.”

Licence test delay questioned

A Cambridge driving instructor has welcomed news that Cambridge will be reconsidered as a venue for driving tests but says the time frame is too long.

The New Zealand Transport Agency says it will review its decision not to allow licence testing in the town – but not until the next financial year.

That means dozens, if not close to 100 learner drivers will continue to leave Cambridge for another centre to take their tests every month.

Sheryl Moffat, whose Brighteye Driving School operates in Cambridge, Te Awamutu and Hamilton, says it could be 2021 before testing comes back – nine years after they were taken out of the community.

“NZTA has a criteria for testing, quite rightly, and when it took tests out of town said the streets of Cambridge did not provide the environment to enable learner drivers to show they have the skills to complete certain driving techniques,” she said.

“But this is one of the fastest growing large towns in New Zealand, and the volume of traffic here and road environment has changed. I don’t see why there has to be such a delay in bringing tests back, particularly when it is causing a lot of inconvenience.”

NZTA’s Acting Director of

Regional Relationships Ross I’Anson said the Government’s 2012 Safer Journeys strategy required a more complex driving test including “multiple lanes and a minimum level of traffic to achieve the level of challenge required”.

Moffat acknowledged it could be argued some of the categories for testing were not present in Cambridge – but noted the same could be said of Te Awamutu, Morrinsville and Tokoroa, where tests were approved.

“The assessable task requirements of a test are: “Right turn giving way to intersecting traffic (1 lane each way) and left turn giving way to intersecting traffic (1 lane each way).

These manoeuvres are available in Cambridge.

“Lane changing - left and right.

This manoeuvre is available in Cambridge however not in Morrinsville, where tests take place.

“Reverse parallel parking and right turn giving way to oncoming traffic at a T or cross intersection.

This manoeuvre is available in Cambridge “Right turn giving way to two lanes of oncoming traffic T or cross intersection - this maneuverer is not available in Cambridge, nor is it available in Morrinsville or Tokoroa, which both have testing.

“Left turn, two lanes T or cross

intersection - this manoeuvre is not available in Cambridge, nor is it available in Morrinsville, Te Awamutu or Tokoroa, which all have testing.

“Left turn priority give way - this manoeuvre is available in Cambridge.

“Lane change right in preparation for a turn - this manoeuvre is available in Cambridge, but not in Morrinsville.

“Merging into lanes - this manoeuvre is available in Cambridge, but not in Tokoroa or Morrinsville where testing is taking place.

“Indications at roundabouts - this manoeuvre is available in Cambridge.”

She said learner drivers were also assessed on their gap selection, speed choice, following distance, lateral position, use of flush medians, mirror checks, scanning and indicating. All those skills could be demonstrated on Cambridge roads.

Cambridge also had the advantage of traffic lights which were not available in Te Awamutu, Tokoroa or Morrinsville, she said.

“I have a test route in Cambridge that is every bit and if not more so of a challenge than the testing in any of these other town test routes that LTSA now test in.

Waipa Mayor Jim Mylchreest has also been pushing NZTA to return the licencing service to Cambridge.

They should remember them too… call to recognise the Kiwi pilots

By Viv Posselt

As a child, Cambridge’s Philip Chubb watched the 1940 Battle of Britain rage in the skies above him.

Now he would like to see greater recognition afforded the many Kiwi aviators who fought and died in World War II theatres of war.

Chubb says 41.5 percent of the total number of New Zealanders who died during World War II were airmen. Over 4000 lost their lives through their attachment to the Royal Air Force and a further 800 plus died with the Fleet Air Arm and with the RNZAF in the South Pacific. Kiwis were the third biggest contingent of airmen at the Battle of Britain, after the British and Polish aviators.

He would like their contribution to the war effort better acknowledged in Britain, perhaps with a grove of New Zealand native trees and a Wall of Honour naming those who died in air action during WW2.

“I think it is important that the contribution made by Kiwi pilots is not lost,” he said. “Having a memorial in England, perhaps along the south coast area from which many of them flew, would be a good way to honour them. It could be somewhere New Zealanders could visit when going to the UK.” Chubb spent much of his boyhood at St Leonards near the English

south coast town of Hastings.

“I witnessed first-hand the great air battle ... included in my memories of that time are the lowlevel ‘hit and run’ attacks by German messerschmitts. Later, in the 1950s, first as an ATC cadet then later as a Halton “Trenchard brat” and later still in adult service, I learned more

about the practical details of the great air battles of World War II.” The term ‘Trenchard brats’ was applied to the men who trained at RAF Halton, many of whom went on to serve with distinction during the Battle of Britain.

Chubb later migrated to New Zealand, driving overland in a

Morris Minor 1000 from Ostend in Belgium to the south of India, through Sri Lanka to Colombo, then taking the ship to Freemantle and driving across Australia to Sydney. Once here, he worked in the business arena before retiring in 1990.

While living at Paraparaumu

Philip Chubb, seen here with a photograph of his NZRAF helicopter pilot grandson Corey Fothergill, would like to see Kiwi airmen who died in WW2 honoured in the UK.

Beach, he became involved in promoting the use of hovercraft in New Zealand.

At one stage he was secretary of the Thames/Coromandel branch of the Air Force Association, and of the Sir Keith Park Battle of Britain Memorial Fund. He was involved in the 60th anniversary commemoration of the Battle of Britain.

New Zealand-born Air Chief Marshall Sir Keith Park was one of the Battle’s architects and is New Zealand’s most distinguished airmen. A 2.78 metre statue of him was unveiled in London’s Trafalgar Square on September 15, 2010, the 70th anniversary of the Battle of Britain.

Now in his 80’s and planning a post-Christmas move from Cambridge to Chubb’s, Philip’s interest in aviation matters has been revived as he wades through his extensive collection of paperwork, some of which include his writings for RAF journals.

“The young Kiwi men who flew in those theatres of war, and who lost their lives over there, deserve to be honoured. My own family has a rich military background, and my grandson is an officer in the New Zealand Air Force. I think it’s time we pushed for a long-term memorial to our Kiwi aviators before they are forgotten forever.”

‘Crazy’ response to fire alarm

By Sophie Iremonger

Wildfires have devastated large areas of Australia since late October, destroying hundreds of homes, killing four people and burning over 1500 square kilometres of bushland.

Wildlife charities have estimated at least 350 koalas have died, but the chairman of the Australian Koala Foundation believes the figure is over 1000.

It has prompted people around the world to donate to organisations helping the animals in New South Wales, Victoria and Queensland.

Some have even taken to making mittens for burnt koala paws and knitting pouches for orphaned baby koalas.

One Cambridge woman has knitted and crocheted pouches for the motherless joeys and is encouraging others to do the same.

“I just thought, I can do that,” said Jen Philpott, a Cambridge mother-ofthree. She saw the request for knitted pouches online and shared the idea to the Cambridge Grapevine Facebook page.

She said the response had been “crazy”.

She received dozens of requests for more information and has shared the three basic patterns for the joey

Jen Philpott has spent the past fortnight making pouches for koala joeys orphaned in the Australian wildfires and received a heartwarming response from Cambridge locals who wished to do the same.

pouches with anyone who asked. The demand reached a point where she has now organised a collection point at Fresh Choice Leamington, to pick up patterns and drop off pouches, and is preparing to send one big shipment of the pouches to Australia.

“The patterns are super easy but must be in natural fibre, no acrylic, 8-ply preferred.”

People as far as Hamilton and Auckland are sending in knitted pouches, as well as sewers providing an inner lining for the knits. The response had been amazing, Jen said.

“Knitting or sewing even one pouch is really helping in a practical way.

“I’m not a fire fighter, so I can’t help in that way. But this

combines my love of animals with knitting, so it’s a perfect way for me to do something.

“You do wonder how useful will they be by the time they get there, considering the Australian post can take forever sometimes, but it’s only the start of summer, the fires are going to continue, there’s going to be a lot of damage happening, they are always needing them.”

The big parcel will be delivered to Australia on December 13. Residents who want to contribute a knitted pouch or help sew liners for them can pick up patterns from Fresh Choice Leamington, and drop off their finished work there. Or Jen can collect them direct. To find out more, email Jen on philpottkjw@gmail.com.

People of Action The 60 plus members of Rotary Cambridge are a fun-loving bunch.

Thursday evening meetings are enlivened with cheeky repartee and jokes. Over the years, long lasting friendships have formed. But the members are also hard working, helping in the community as well as banding together to fundraise for local charities.

At the formal meetings there is an interesting balance of speakers from NZ and world-wide businesses, sport and local recipients of the club’s fundraising.

About two years ago, it was mooted that a cookbook would be a great fundraiser for the club. The Waikato region offers a smorgasbord of gourmet delights and it was agreed that these should be showcased in a cookbook, together with interesting and lighthearted stories about the producers.

Easy, innovative recipes were created, tested and photographed. Members helped contact producers, pre-sell the

For domestic abusers, silence is golden

By Viv Posselt

The biggest domestic violence killer is silence, says White Ribbon Ambassador and New Zealander of the Year nominee, David White.

He was speaking at a Cambridge Community House meeting at Onyx restaurant to mark White Ribbon Day – a United Nations’ International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women. It

is part of a global White Ribbon Campaign, launched in Canada in 1991 and adopted in New Zealand in 2004.

White joined the movement against domestic violence after his daughter Helen Meads was killed by her multimillionaire horse breeder husband Greg Meads in 2009, a week after she told him she was leaving the relationship.

When introducing White, Cambridge Community House (CCH) manager Harriet

Nats push Piarere plan again

By Sophie Iremonger

Louise Upston is urging residents concerned about the SH1 stretch from Cambridge to Piarere to attend a meeting in Cambridge on Monday with parliament’s oppositional spokesperson for transport and regional development, Chris Bishop.

The would-be transport minister, should National win the 2020 election, wants to hear from people on-theground in Cambridge.

Upston says that is in contrast to the current minister and associate minister of transport who “have both been invited and refuse to visit”.

Upston last month launched a petition for parliament seeking support to extend the Waikato Expressway to the SH29 Tauranga turnoff at Piarere,

a project planned and funded

by National to the tune of $4M before it was canned by the new Labour-led government in 2017.

The petition has reached roughly 800 signatures so far, but she said it had “only just started”.

“The past week has seen a lot more interest in signing it with people popping into the office to sign it as well as requesting copies of it to get neighbours to sign it.

The people of Cambridge have made it quite clear that this is an issue they want sorted.”

She said Monday’s meeting, being held at the Cambridge Health and Community Centre from 1pm to 2pm, would provide an opportunity for Cambridge people, especially transport businesses most impacted by the road, to discuss this issue

directly with Bishop.

“His responsibility is to be informed and knowledgeable about transport issues throughout New Zealand and to hold the government accountable for the decisions they make around transport issues.

“It is a community meeting with the intention that anyone can come along.”

During the visit Bishop will take a first-hand look at the road, talk with those impacted and take his findings back to the government to lobby on behalf of Cambridge residents, along with Upston.

“The more voices we have in parliament who understand the need for change to this section of road the better. This is a great opportunity for the people of Cambridge to have their voice about this issue heard,” Upston said.

Dixon said an average of one in three New Zealand women suffer from domestic violence, while 13 women, 10 men and nine children are killed through domestic violence every year. It crossed all racial and socio-economic sectors and was as prevalent in Cambridge as is anywhere else, she said.

CCH receives reports of family violence incidences every day.

White said the silence around the issue - often maintained because of a sense of shame or fear - was often greater in areas of higher socio-economic standing because of a perceived need to maintain status.

“If we are going to change anything, or make any progress at all, we have to change the communities in which it happens,” he said. “Everyone can make a difference. Find out about the people around you, don’t be afraid to ask how they are doing.”

In an effort to spread his message, he toured New Zealand, taking in 71 electorates in 14 weeks and covering 11,500km. By the end of it, he had enlisted the support of 44 MPs in his anti-violence campaign.

“MPs are very important,” he stressed.

“They are the ones who can easily access the breadth of resources available to help, and they are the people who can also help in their own communities.”

White cited the success of what has become known as the Ruapehu Whānau Transformation Plan, launched in 2013 and containing solutions for positive transformation for families in Raetihi, Ohakune and Waiouru.

It started when he was called in to help stem the tide of growing domestic violence in the area, beginning with just a handful of people and now spanning communities across the three centres. It launched with a scoping report containing 32 ideas for change and provided an initial five-year time

scale and targets for transformation across education, housing, health and social issues.

All those targets were met. School NCEA two pass levels jumped from 50 percent to 92.9 percent, and despite not being the direct focus of any of the targets, family violence halved in those five years.

“We just removed the triggers to family violence,” he said. “It was simple stuff, but stuff the communities got involved with themselves. Every community can do this.”

A second plan has since been launched, and communities across the three towns are thriving. “I would like to see that spread across the country,” David said.

He went on from his address to visit Cambridge High School where he promoted his anti-violence message and urged people to sign the White Ribbon Pledge (https:// whiteribbon.org.nz/act/the-pledge/).

Students chip in for Lifeskills Students

By Viv Posselt

A Cambridge High School - Rotary Interact fundraiser held earlier this year has resulted in a $1000 donation to Cambridge Lifeskills.

The money was raised at a Tivoli Cinema screening of Yesterday and a presentation was staged last week.

The school’s Rotary Interact club comprised some 17 senior students this year, led by Year 13 student and a member of the club for the past four years, Zara Newman. She said about half the Interact club members were leaving at the end of this year, but hopes were high that other students would come in to fill the gaps.

Zara, who is going on a year’s Rotary Exchange to France next year, presented the cheque to Cambridge Lifeskills manager Sandy Wesford and Lifeskills chairman, John Bullick.

The money would be used, they said, to swell the resources needed for the organisation to meet an ever-increasing need.

Cambridge Lifeskills is a not-for-profit agency offering counselling for children and young people aged five to 15. The need has grown steadily since the agency started in 1992, with children and young people increasingly exposed to bullying, abuse and a range of family issues.

Sandy Wesford said a record 180 referrals had come through this year. “That extrapolates beyond 180 children … each one has anything

between six and 12 sessions, which means a huge number of hours per referral. We already have a waiting list of students seeking help.

This additional funding will help us fund more counsellors and hopefully reduce that wait time.”

John Bullick said the growing number of referrals was partly due to population growth in the Cambridge area, but could also be attributed to the increasing complexity of issues being faced by children and young people.

“We are continually juggling things to enable

us to maintain enough resources to meet the needs. We receive no government funding, so this donation from CHS Rotary Interact club is most welcome.”

He said the agency relied heavily on support given from the community. He cited the example of a new vehicle donated to Lifeskills earlier this year by Cambridge Real Estate, and a pledge for its maintenance from Automotive Solutions.

“Without this sort of support, we wouldn’t be able to operate. It is extremely valuable to us.”

Cambridge East Primary students grilled Waipā District Council roading experts on the new speed limits last week.

More than 60 Year 5 and 6 students led a discussion with Council transportation manager, Bryan Hudson, and engineer, Xinghao Chen, about the 200 speed limit changes which came into effect last month.

They wanted to know why the limits were changed, how the speed on roads were determined, how many limits had been changed and what it meant to be an engineer.

Hudson said the students were particularly interested in the changes to speed limits around their school and offered some great suggestions for improvements to the road.

Waipā District Council is one of four councils in the Waikato region to lower speed limits. Hudson said the changes were a first step towards creating safer roads for the district’s growing population.

THE AGE OF REASON

Life in the slow lane Having been a Justice of the Peace for well over half my lifetime I become involved with a large number of people with relatively minor problems - but who face barriers put in place by interpretation of rules set upon them by (in the main) senseless requirements on myriad forms.

And some of these are for immigrants who are forced to refer back to their originating countries for minor points of clarification that assume gigantic barriers to them. Generally, we get over the problems but this interface with puzzled people, who have chosen to reside in this lovely country - sometimes to escape real oppression (as against local New Zealand bureaucratic barriers) - leads to some amazing conversations at my kitchen table. Latterly there has been a growing number of more elderly people who are joining their loved ones and here is where I get the greatest thrill – being able to converse with those of a similar age group to myself and to understand their late-in-life dreams. Hopefully pointing them in the right direction.

Another interesting JP role is that pertaining to death certificates. Mindnumbing government rules result in a stupid pricing demand for photostatted copies of these important documents. It is

CAMBRIDGE NEWS | 15

by Peter Carr

the type of problem that a grief-stricken elderly newly minted widow can do without while trying to unscramble a mix of banking arrangements hitherto in the hands of her late husband. So, the kindly and understanding local undertaker gets me to certify copies as a free service to the bereaved family. An entirely commendable practice.

It is the perusal of these documents that causes me to perceive that by far the majority of those ‘leaving us’ are now in excess of 82 years of age. Roll back the cameras and when I left school in the late 1950’s normal retirement was hoped to be achieved at 60 years of age - and at 65 the rapid slippery downward slope was in effect. So – hey presto – 82 is the new 65.

While this increased longevity due to better medical practices, improved diets and a leaning towards a greater degree of fitness is very welcome, it brings with it a number of associated problems. Not the least is the requirement for these older people to balance their remaining funds for a longer period of time. The ridiculous posturing of national governments (of all political persuasions) to shy away from placing a realistic age in the start of pension payments is just elongating the drama. The emergence of in excess of 400

retirement villages (I reside in one) is fine - but only good for those who have carried through with a sensible practice, over many years, of owning houses and building Peter Carr up equity. The modern trend where a larger proportion of people are sticking with paying rent will, in the course of time, balloon into a major problem downstream.

So, gentle readers of a younger age, next time you take umbrage when you see an elderly person struggling along the footpath on a mechanical scooter, just remember that this could well be you in a few years’ time.

The Japanese have a wonderful annual national holiday called Respect for the Aged Day. It’s when everyone travels to visit Grandma and checks that she is okay. Why not adopt a local grandma and give her some joy? There are a large number of older people who do not have frequent visits from their families who would welcome some social interface and normal conversation. Go on – give it try – they will not bite!

Contractors win business award

Connell Contractors won the Supreme Business Award at the 2019 Waikato Westpac Business Awards, an achievement their CEO Lester Foxall, a Cambridge resident, credits to good planning and a sound business model. It comes four years after he updated their business model and diversified the company.

A Sunday second despite late changes

It was a tough start for Nick Ross in the BNT V8s Championship in first round held at Pukekohe last weekend.

Ross had gone into the event with high hopes but mechanical issues plagued the team for much of the weekend.

“The car had bit of an ‘engine cough’ during qualifying, so we missed most of that session. We thought it might have been an electrical issue,” said Ross.

Then prior to the start of race one, Ross’ Total Lubricants Nissan Altima developed a further engine issue, causing the team to take action and ultimately miss race one.

“We were warming up the car in the pit garage before the start of race one,

and we heard it make a funny noise. So we elected to replace the engine with our spare one, which meant we missed race one.

“We suspect that the issue we had in qualifying was the start of the more serious engine problem we found before the start of the race.”

The team worked long into the night, getting the engine replaced by 11pm, before discovering a different issue with the clutch and gearbox, forcing more changes. The team eventually left the circuit in the early hours of Sunday.

After a tough start on Friday and Saturday, Ross fought back with a solid second place result in race two on Sunday morning.

The final race of the weekend on Sunday afternoon was abandoned after a handful of laps when heavy rain started lashing the Pukekohe circuit, making it unsafe for competitors to race.

“If there was a positive for the weekend, I’m pretty happy with how I’m driving. In that race on Sunday morning, we started from the back and got to the front pretty quick.

“We’ve got a descent break now between now and the next round, so plenty of time to go through everything, re-group and come back stronger.”

The next round of the BNT V8s Championship returns to Pukekohe again, February 7-9.

Final home bow for WaiBOP women

Cambridge hosts its final game of the national women’s football season on Sunday when WaiBOP meet title contenders Northern Lights.

The match completes a series of six at John Kerkhof Park in the National Women’s League and provides spectators one last chance this season to see some of the best players in the country.

The game kicks off at 2pm, after a curtain-raiser in which the region’s best U-13 girls will play a warm-up game ahead of this year’s national age group tournament.

Northern Lights – who represent the region north of Auckland’s harbour bridge – have several up and coming players, including two newcomers to the Football Ferns in goalkeeper Lily Alfeld and defender Claudia Bunge.

The pair were chosen for the New Zealand squad to play China this year and have emerged as strong players in the NWL. The home side will feature another Football Fern, Kate Loye, who at 26 is making a return to the NWL. WaiBOP will also include former Cambridge junior Grace Wisnewski who has played a prominent role in recent New Zealand U-17 and U-20 age group squads.

Meanwhile, Cambridge Football Club have announced the dates for this summer’s annual seven-a-side tournaments for men and women.

The club will hold its tenth annual Cambridge Sevens on February 16 (men) and March 15 (women).

Medal haul bodes well for home round The NZ track cycling team brought home five medals from round three of the UCI Track Cycling World Cup in Hong Kong over the weekend. The fourth round of competition kicks off today at the Avantidrome.

It started with a gold-medal finish by 0.8 seconds in the 4000m team pursuit final for the women’s development squad, which included Te Awamutu’s Michaela Drummond and St Peter’s

Nick Ross bounced back after missing the opening race.

Raining, but save that water...

The forecasters were on the money this week when they predicetd a storm would pass through Waipā on Tuesday afternoon.

As much as 20cm of rain was recorded in parts of the region, and most of it came in a 90 burst, the second decent rainfall in five days after a long dry spell.

More rain is forecast for the second half of the weekend, but the warnings to conserve water across the regon have been published this week.

Hamilton City Council’s City Waters Manager Maire Porter said there had been a steady increase in water demand over the past month.

“Historical trends indicate that with improving weather, water use will only continue to increase throughout December.”

Waipa District Council’s Water Services Manager, Martin Mould, said a hot summer is on the cards but a wet spring season is keeping water alert levels at bay for the first time since the Smart Water campaign started.

“Te Awamutu and Pirongia’s water supply comes from the Mangauika Stream. In the summer months, it can struggle to keep up with demand so we are advising people be mindful of how they use water, particularly over summer.

He said the higher councils could keep stream levels, the more freshwater would flow and reduce the occurrence of algae growth.

“Waipā is in for a long, hot summer and we all need to consider how much water we are using.”

Service honour for Hunter Charlie Hunter, was recognised for his achievements in the sport at an event in Auckland on Thursday night ahead of the Inter Dominion carnival held at Alexandra Park.

The long-time servant of harness racing and Cambridge Raceway patron was presented with an award for distinguished service by the Inter Dominion Event Committee, soon after being made an Inter Dominion ambassador.

“It was a nice surprise. You don’t do the things you do in your life looking for acclaim and awards, but it is very nice when you are recognised, particularly from an Australasian viewpoint,” he said.

“I have enjoyed everything I have done in harness racing, whether it be administration, training, or driving.”

Hunter remains one of the most successful trainers to have competed in the series, winning three finals and becoming the only trainer to have won both finals in the same year.

He won his first Inter Dominion Final in 1971 when he trained and drove Geffin to win the Trotters series, and Hunter said that first series victory was a great thrill.

“That was a real pleasure because he was a work in progress at that time. He had a very good season and won two heats and the final.”

Four years later, at Alexandra Park in Auckland, Hunter became the first (and to date only) trainer to secure both titles in the same year, winning the Trotters Final with Castleton’s Pride, and taking out the Pacers Final with a horse he labelled as the best he has trained, Young Quinn.

“He just did things that other horses haven’t done,” Hunter said.

“In the 1975 season, he won 19 of his 22 starts, including the three heats and final of the Inter Dominion and a whole bunch of races prior to going over to Australia and winning top free-for-all pacing races, and then in Canada and the United States. He was just a super horse.”

Hunter was unable to take the reins in either final in 1975 due to injury, however, he said it remains one of his most pleasing achievements in the sport.

“1975 was a mixed carnival for the fact that my horse was brought down on the second night and I was out of it as a driver from thereon in.

“But it didn’t stop the pleasure of seeing my team race well and win. That’s what you are trying to train them for.”

The 1975 series was also a turning point for talented horseman John Langdon, who drove both horses in the absence of his then employer.

Langdon went onto forge his own stellar training career, winning the 1992 Trotting Final with William Dee and was inducted into the Inter Dominion Hall of Fame.

“John Langdon was working for me at the time and had been for about three years. John was always a good horseman and he proved it at that carnival,” Hunter said.

“The next year I was going to the States and we had started off the season well. I was going to be away for a long time, so I split the team and John took over one of the properties that I had leased and he started up on his own with some of the owners. I had encouraged my owners to go with him and away he went.”

As well as the three Inter Dominion Final victories, Inter Dominion Event Committee and Harness Racing Australia representative Hunter came close in other years, as both a trainer and an Michael Taranto presents Charlie with an award for distinguished service.

He was second at Auckland with French Pass in 1968 and again in the early 1980s with Jenner, also at Auckand.

Records tumble at school athletics

By Steph Bell-Jenkins

Eden Early emerged as an athlete to watch both on the track and in the field at the 2019 Cambridge Inter-Schools Athletics Championships last Friday (November 29).

Sweet on Christmas

It’s beginning to feel a lot like Christmas. There’s a touch of tension in the air. Who is coming to the Christmas feast? Why won’t the family make up their minds?

It’s often a bit awkward with families. Some live in different towns; there are the in-laws, siblings and cousins to consider. What are we going to eat? Why don’t you all just bring a plate!

However, I’m not one for being caught short and the following recipes can all be prepared in advance.

Pavlovas are great — especially the store-bought ones as they keep for weeks without their topping. Instead of whipped cream, try piling scoops of salted caramel ice cream on top then drizzling with a little melted chocolate.

Meringues are a pantry staple. Sandwich together with whipped cream and pile in a tower on a serving plate then garnish with fresh berries. Or crumble into whipped cream together with mini marshmallows and fresh berries = ambrosia.

Crepes can also be prepared ahead — then frozen. They can be reheated in the microwave and served with flambéed stone fruit or filled with a mixture of lemon curd and cream fraiche, then rolled and topped with limonata ice cream.

FESTIVE PUMPKIN PIE Can be frozen for up to 2 months. Thaw in the fridge, then garnish.

Short Pastry: 2 cups plain flour 1/4 teaspoon salt 125 g butter, chopped 2 tablespoons icing sugar 1 egg, lightly beaten Filling: 570g peeled and seeded pumpkin, chopped 395g can sweetened condensed milk 3 medium eggs 2 teaspoons ground mixed spice 1/4 teaspoon salt Preheat the oven to 220°C. Lightly grease an 18cm round pie dish with 6cm deep sides Place the flour, salt, butter and icing sugar in a food processor fitted with a steel blade. Process until the mixture resembles

breadcrumbs. With the motor running, add the egg. When the mixture forms a ball, remove, wrap in plastic film and chill for at least 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, microwave or bake the pumpkin, until tender. Keep it as dry as possible.

Roll out the chilled pastry to form a 30cm disc. Line the pie dish with the pastry and trim the edges. Pat a sheet of foil over the pastry ensuring all the pastry is covered. Weigh down with pastry weights, if preferred. Bake for 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, mash the pumpkin well. Sieve if required. Measure 1 cup of the mash.

Whisk the cooled pumpkin, condensed milk, eggs, mixed spice and salt in a large bowl, until smooth. Pour into the crust.

Reduce the oven temperature to 180°C and bake for 35-40 minutes until a knife inserted 3cm from the edge comes out clean. When cool the centre will firm up. Chill in the fridge.

Great garnished with coarsely chopped meringues and fresh berries. Serves 6-8.

BANOFFEE CHEESECAKE Bananas and toffee — a classic combo. The cheesecake can be covered tightly and frozen for up to 1 month.

Festive pumpkin pie

Banoffee Cheesecake

Base: 250g plain biscuits (gluten-free if preferred) 75g butter, melted Filling: 150g peeled very ripe bananas 2 medium eggs, separated 500g traditional cream cheese, chopped 1/2 cup sugar 1 1/2 tablespoons cornflour 1 teaspoon vanilla essence.

Topping: 1/2 cup sugar 1/2 cup water 75g dark chocolate, melted Preheat the oven to 180°C. Lightly grease a 20cm springform cake pan and line the base with baking paper.

Crush the biscuits finely and combine with the butter. Press evenly onto the base of the cake pan. Bake for 15 minutes, remove and cool slightly. Reduce the oven temperature to 170°C. Place the bananas and egg yolks in a food processor and mix until smooth. Add the cream cheese, sugar, cornflour and vanilla essence. Mix until smooth. Tip into a large bowl.

Whip the egg whites until stiff. Using a large spoon, fold into the banana mixture. Tip onto the biscuit base and smooth the top.

Bake for 40-45 minutes, until just set. It will firm on cooling.

Remove from the oven and run a thin sharp knife around the edge.

Cool for 30 minutes then cover and chill overnight.

To make the toffee, place the sugar and water in a large, microwave-proof glass bowl. Microwave on high for 2 minutes. Stir to dissolve the sugar. Continue microwaving for 3-4 minutes until the liquid is light golden. Remove — the toffee will continue to colour on standing. Pour in a thin layer onto a lightly oiled sheet of foil. Cool. Break into shards.

Before serving, drizzle a little chocolate in lines over the top of the cheese cake and allow to set. Garnish with the toffee shards. Serves 8.

Golfers raise $14,000 The desired number of birdies and eagles may not have occurred, but men were definitely the winners of the recent Classic Builders Movember Masters golfing event in Cambridge which raised $14,000 for men’s health.

Movember country manager Robert Dunne says that’s double the amount normally made at Movember golfing tournaments around the country. The money will go to the Movember Foundation that funds local programmes combatting prostate cancer and testicular cancer and supporting male mental health and suicide prevention.

The Movember Masters is a series of golf tournaments running throughout New Zealand to next May to fundraise for the foundation and raise men’s health awareness.

Dunne hopes the partnering with Classic Builders for the Cambridge event could

be a fore-runner for other golfing events elsewhere in the country.

Classic Builders decided to partner up for this event and have a men’s health day instead of holding its usual corporate golf day. They contacted their networks and got people on board.

About 130 golfers played in the Ambrosestyle event and most were from the Classic Builders network.

“They recruited players, they offered valuable additional prizes, they manned the barbecue… they fully embraced it,” Dunne said. “We found like-minded partners in Classic Builders and it gave us the opportunity to spread positive, relevant, men’s health messaging to people within the building and trade industries. It was a really great partnership.”

The former labour union high official and hitman learned to kill serving in Italy during the Second World War. He now looks back on his life and the hits that defined his mob career, maintaining connections with the Bufalino crime family. In particular, he goes back to the part he claims to have played in the disappearance of his life-long friend, Jimmy Hoffa, the former president of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, who mysteriously vanished in late July 1975 at the age of 62. “The Irishman is one of the best stories put to film in years. Al Pacino looked in his prime. De Niro, Pesci and everyone else is as good as you’d expect. The CGI de-aging is revolutionary.

Everything about it is top shelf and whilst the roles of the leads are quite restrained, there is no shortage of blood. An interesting insight into 1950 America and the influence of the crime families, with fingers in every facet of American life. Definitely an Oscar Best Picture Nominee. I watched again today as it is so good and such a lot of detail.

FISHERMAN’S FRIENDS Danny is a music label manager who "discovers" a group of Cornwall sea-shanty singers and turns them into pop stars, in this based-on-fact comedy that will put a broad smile on your face from start to end.

Its heroes are unassuming people who get together for a good cause and end up becoming famous, having charmed all those who can relate to a story about lovable underdogs coming out on top.

‘Fisherman’s Friends’ is a fanciful tale; it is drawn from life, but with the usual fictional flourishes added to spice up the characters and tidy up the storyline. It’s a cheering success story highlighting the homely pleasures and eccentricities of English village life.
