Council says ‘no’ to Māori ward
By Claire Castle
W
AIPA DISTRICT COUNCIL has voted not to establish a Māori seat on Council for the next local body elections. With five votes in favour and eight votes against, the outcome of Tuesday’s meeting was disappointing to some councillors and the small group of Māori women who came to address the meeting. Despite the assertion of councillor Susan O’Regan that having a Māori ward would be a “no brainer” to allow for the appropriate representation of Iwi around the council table, the majority of councillors were unmoved. Instead, they have asked for a report on
how to better engage with Māori and the wider community for options to improve Māori representation on Council. Mayor Jim Mylchreest, who also voted in favour of a Māori ward, said the concept was similar to the ward system already in place. Waipa is divided into five wards, meaning that no large area will dominate smaller ones by virtue of population. “I don’t really see a difference between that and having a Māori ward,” he said. Having a Māori ward would have allowed for true representation of Māori around the council table, with Iwi being able to elect their own voice rather than having people selected by council to consult, he explained.
Council is required to consider creating a Māori ward as part of its six-yearly review designed to ensure fair representation. There is a legal requirement for a Māori ward to be considered. The options on the table for council consideration were establishment of a Māori ward, not establishing one (status quo) or letting the community decide by running a poll at the cost of approximately $100,000. A council report tabled at the meeting laid out the options and said that due to growth in the area, the establishment of a Māori ward in Waipa would not require as many boundary changes as going with the status quo. The report cited census figures that
Māori represent approximately 14% of the Waipa population, noting that it is difficult for a community of that size spread across all five wards to muster the electoral support to win a Council seat. Councillors Grahame Webber and Liz Stolwyk, who voted against the Māori wards, were unavailable for comment. Those who voted against establishing a Māori ward were Councillors Elwyn Andree-Wiltens, Judy Bannon, Marcus Gower, Sue Milner, Liz Stolwyk, Bruce Thomas, Grahame Webber and Vern Wilson. Those who voted in favour were Mayor Mylchreest plus Councillors Susan O’Regan, Clare St Pierre, Hazel Barnes and Andrew Brown.

Local company fined $64k Cambridge newsroom update Another week has hurtled by, with the earth hardly even wobbling on its axis with the new government and everything. Early days, I suppose. It’s been a busy week in the newsroom with plenty of news flooding in. We’ve got a bumper paper this week, and I hope you will enjoy what we have put together. We’ve had yet another ram raid at Stirling Sports, commemorations of the New Zealand Land Wars and a whole lot of other things not including the opening of the Cambridge pool (because it’s not opening anytime soon). We also captured some pretty blatant mechanical doping at the Avantidrome this week (go see page 14), and had I known this was an option I might have considered trying out for the team. Maybe next time. It’s my seventh week
in the swivelly chair and it’s been a very interesting experience so far. It’s quite daunting getting the paper with all that white space to fill each week but somehow we have avoided the need for any doodling pages or colouring in (except that one time, but that was a competition). So that’s a bonus. Have a great week, everyone. Claire Castle
A company which operates a composting and quarry facility in Cambridge has been convicted and fined $64,125 for a number of illegal discharges into a stream that flows to the Waikato River. Remediation (NZ) Limited, trading as Revital Group, was found to be discharging chicken manure and green-waste leachate, as well as sediment, from its facilities on Cambridge Road into the stream. Waikato Regional Council prosecuted the company following a complaint from a member of the public, in September last year, who came across a section of the waterway that was brown, foamy and smelt strongly of effluent. Council staff responding to the complaint tracked the contamination back to the company’s property. Enquiries at the property revealed that a large, trailer mounted pump had been hired by the company and used to pump approximately 1.6 million litres of leachate from a holding pond into the nearby
stream. The leachate contained high levels of e.coli which can affect human health. Further investigations by the council revealed that chicken manure had been illegally stored adjacent to the holding pond and was contributing to the contamination. The site also operates a quarry which was found to be discharging unacceptable levels of sediment into the same stream. Convictions and the fine were imposed last week in the Hamilton District Court by Judge Melanie Harland who stated that there were “very poor management practices and understanding about the company’s obligations under its resource consents”. Judge Harland said evidence suggested the company was “favouring of economic considerations over environmental compliance”. The judge also noted the need for specific deterrence, given the company had a previous conviction and as it did not appear to have “learnt its lesson”.
Clarification
In last week’s paper, we ran a brief about the sevens under 19 tournament that took place on October 18. We reported that Cambridge High School beat Hillcrest High in the final, however this was in fact the playoffs for third and fourth. The correct caption will be run with the photo this week (page 20).
Street View:
Tom and Judy Murray We did have trick or treaters, quite a few actually. We think Halloween is good for the kids, they love it, they’re happy getting dressed up so why not. It would have been great if we’d had it back in our day.
Illegal discharge into a local stream reported by a member of the public led to prosecution.
With Halloween on Tuesday we hit the streets to ask people whether they went trick-or-treating or had any at their door, and sought their thoughts on Halloween as a whole.
Alice Hall I live way out in the country so I had none! My four kids would love trick-or-treating. I’m not really into it. I think Halloween is a little it over rated, I never went trick-ortreating but I’ve always lived in the country.

David Edwards Halloween? It’s a load of rubbish quite frankly. I think it’s just more commercialization of something that is totally inappropriate.
Wendy Cogan My kids aren’t quite old enough, but we probably wouldn’t go trick-or-treating, maybe just go to a Halloween party or something. I think it’s a little bit like begging, I don’t really like it to be honest! Parties are okay.
Laura and Andy Nagel We had some trick-or-treaters come around dressed as ghosts and gave them some sweets. Halloween isn’t really a big thing in the UK, but we’ve moved to New Zealand so we’ll probably go trick or treating next year.

Smash-and-grab, again By Sophie Iremonger Stirling Sports Cambridge was the target of yet another ram raid at the weekend. For third time in the last 14 months, thieves reversed their vehicle into the shop front early on Sunday morning. Ploughing through the street garden and into the window, the car wasn’t able to enter the store, but thieves were able to steal items through the window from the shopfront display. Having lost thousands of dollars in the previous ram raids in August 2016 and March 2017, increased security measures had
lessened the impact of Sunday’s raid. Owner Sarah Nicholl couldn’t confirm the value of the items stolen, though the front window and door would need to be replaced. She was glad their high-quality security footage had captured the incident, which is currently being viewed by police. Nicholl said the thieves concealed their identity, but they had identified a silver car, believed to be a Mazda. A security company responded to the incident immediately after the burglars activated the alarm around 4am on Sunday, and
called the police who were quick to arrive on the scene. “The police have been really helpful through all of this,” Nicholl said. “They have caught them the last two times so they have a pretty good strike rate.” Thieves involved in the previous burglaries have been charged and appeared in court. Police were asking for witnesses of Sunday’s incident to come forward. Anyone with information should phone Cambridge Police on (07) 827 5531 or to make an anonymous report phone Crimestoppers on Thieves ploughed through the garden, attempting to ram-raid Stirling Sports on Sunday morning. 0800 555 111.

A taxi turf war is brewing in Cambridge, with recent changes to legislation opening the door for outside competition in the town. By Claire Castle This week, Hamilton Taxis announced they will send three cars to Cambridge, initially on a Friday and Saturday night but possibly extending that coverage if the demand is there. Cambridge Taxis’ owner, Ropere (Bully) Tipene, doubts there will be enough work in the town for both companies. Hamilton Taxis are coming to Cambridge during peak demand, leaving Cambridge Taxis to serve the community during the rest of the week, which is much less lucrative, Bully said. “(Hamilton Taxis) expects us to carry the can from Monday to Friday when there’s hardly any work on...but that’s business, I suppose.” Changes in place from October 1, mean that taxi operators are no longer required to apply to the New Zealand Transport
Poolwatch The water table has risen again over the past week, and there’s still no timeframe for the opening of the pool. Groundwater levels need to drop by more than a metre before the pool can be drained, cleaned and refilled for the swimming season that was scheduled to start on October 21. Not likely anytime soon.
Bully Tipene, owner of Cambridge Taxis, doubts there will be enough work for two taxi companies. Authority for special permission to operate in new towns, opening the way for competition. Also gone from October 1 is the requirement for drivers to have an area knowledge certificate as part of their
taxi licence – they can go anywhere. Hamilton Taxis’ general manager, Andy Collins, said the firm is responding to requests from clients they are already servicing in
Cambridge. “There’s been definite demand from motel owners,” Andy said, adding that previously they couldn’t work in Cambridge unless they had a booking here.

Community behind Lifeskills Local schools have been invited to take part in Cambridge Lifeskills Day on Tuesday (November 7) to help the organisation fund its counselling work with children and families. The annual day originated
Cambridge Lifeskills’ top tips for parents • Make time for each other by having family meetings, devicefree times and conversations around the dinner table. • Use descriptive words around the characteristics and virtues you see in your children. • Instead of saying ‘good boy’ or ‘good girl’, which is about performance, say things like ‘hey, I noticed you did that and it was really thoughtful’. This will help your child think of themselves in terms of the positive attributes you describe and build self-esteem.
as a Melbourne-Cup-day fundraiser by an organisation that has since been disestablished, but the date has stayed the same. “Now we invite schools to get their students to participate in lots of different activities like crazy hair days, fluoro days, coin trails and mufti days,” manager Sandy Wesford said. “We really appreciate any help the community can give us.” Celebrating its 25th birthday this year, Cambridge Lifeskills offers free counselling services to local children aged 5-15 and their families, and is funded entirely by grants and donations. “You’ve just got to look at our mental health stats and the impact of some of these social issues to see that there’s a lot of need out there,” Wesford said. “For us at Lifeskills it’s about early intervention and making the positive changes needed to bring children’s lives back into some kind of balance so they can get on with their learning.” The team’s eight counsellors all have full caseloads and are seeing more than 50 children and their families at present. “So, every piece of support that we get goes into ensuring that our waitlist stays at a
minimum,” Wesford said. Board chairman John Bullick said demand for the organisation’s services had increased due to population growth and pressure on families caused by the hectic pace of modern life. “Kids are under pressure and therefore their anxiety is increased. Because life is faster, often people are busier than they were a couple of generations ago. Family time becomes precious, but it’s perhaps not as relaxed or as available as it used to be. And when you’re talking about nurturing kids, that takes time.” Wesford agrees, and will be watching the new Labour-led government’s social policy announcements with interest. “Jacinda (Ardern) came here a few years ago before she was Prime Minister, doing a bit of research at Lifeskills,” Wesford said. “She was very interested in what we were doing, and how, and if other communities were doing it. “She really endorsed our work, so maybe there was a little seed sown.” To make a donation, please visit www.cambridgelifeskills. Lifeskills manager Sandy Wesford and board chairman John Bullick co.nz. say kids are under more pressure these days

MORTGAGE MATTERS
Refinancing Your Mortgage By Gavin Lynch – Yes Mortgages Refinancing your mortgage is the process of changing your mortgage lending from your existing lender to a new lender. Refinancing is a common practice for any of these reasons: • You don’t like the lender you are with. You’ve experienced poor service, problems with staff, or high account fees. • You want to borrow more money but the lender won’t allow it. Perhaps you want to consolidate debt, borrow to purchase a rental property or a vehicle, or put working capital into a business. • You have ‘outgrown’ your existing lender and want to move forward. This is common for self-employed people with a growing business, or for investors with an increasing portfolio. • Your lender has asked you to refinance. You may be in arrears with mortgage repayments or you need to restructure your mortgage. Refinancing can involve costs such as break fees from the existing lender, solicitors’ fees, valuation charges etc, but we can help get cash contributions from your new lender to help offset these costs. At Yes Mortgages, we can outline the costs involved and find the best new lender to fit your current situation from the 25 or so different lenders available. In most instances, our service is FREE to you. Generally the benefits of refinancing outweigh the costs involved but bear in mind: Refinancing your mortgage must benefit and add value to YOU. Let us do the work to find you the best lender for your situation.

Rā Maumahara A community event to celebrate the first ever New Zealand Wars National Day of Commemoration was held in Te Awaumutu on Saturday. Last year the government announced Rā Maumahara National Day of Commemoration will be held on October 28 each year. On this date in 1835, the Declaration of Independence of New Zealand (He Whakaputanga o te Rangatiratanga o Nu Tirene) was signed. The inaugural event commemorated the armed conflict in Wairau, Northland, Taranaki, Waikato, Waipa, Te Urewera, Tauranga, Ōpōtiki and the East Coast during the 1800s. That armed conflict was rife in Waipa and the district’s own battle sites include Rangiaowhia, Waiari, Paterangi, Hairini, and the battle of Ōrākau. Around 130 people turned out at St John’s Anglican Church in Te Awamutu for an hour-long service that included the laying of wreaths to honour
the estimated 2,750 lives that were lost in the fighting. Right: Keilah Bailey (left) and Lily Hayward (right) from Pukahue School lay a wreath. Below: Shane Te Ruki speaks with a member of the Australian Defence Force. Photos by Michael Jeans

Remembering Tui Carter On the 19th of October 2017 Cambridge lost one of its characters. Phyllis ‘Tui’ Carter was well known in Cambridge and throughout NZ if the conversation happened to be about antiques. She was a vibrant and creative member of the business community. The sparkle in her eye and her wicked sense of humour will be sorely missed. Cambridge Antiques was started by Tui’s parents, Ken and Blanche Highnam in the 1950s, and operated from their Hamilton Road residence. When Ken died suddenly en route from England, Tui rose to the challenge and took
Cambridge Antiques to the next level. The 17th Century suit of armour that stood on display in the doorway of the shop on the corner of Duke and Victoria Streets for 20 odd years is one of the things that many people remember. Tui was also involved with Cambridge Toastmistress club, Cambridge Pony Club, Dog Obedience, Probus and ran many antique fairs in conjunction with the Jaycees, as fundraisers. A memorial will be held for Tui on Saturday November 4 at 2pm at the Cambridge Town hall for anyone who wants to come to celebrate Tui Carter, pictured here in the 1980s, was a her life. vibrant member of the Cambridge community

Student prompts $5K Lions donation By Sophie Iremonger Students at Cambridge Middle School were met with a surprise at their school assembly last week when a member of the Cambridge Lions presented them with a cheque for five thousand dollars. Faye Gohns, on behalf of the Cambridge Lions funding committee, explained that they had received a letter from one of the students, Luke Philip, writing on behalf of the school to seek funds for the school’s proposed new playground. After reading out the letter, she announced that they would be donating
$5000 towards the cause and presented Luke with the cheque, prompting an excited round of applause from the young crowd. “The Middle School has over 400 kids and we only have one small very old playground,” Luke’s letter read. “I used to play on the playground all the time at Primary School with my friends and I really miss having somewhere to go and climb at morning tea and lunch time with my friends. Over winter the fields can get really muddy so it would be awesome to have a new playground that was built for our age.” Outside of the assembly, Faye said it was the personal element of the
hand-written letter that made all the difference for them. “What appealed to us was the approach that he made, for a child to use their own initiative and write a letter,” she said. “The Cambridge Lions, there’s 85 of us, work hard at the Lions Shed and with the food caravan and any money we get we like to put back into the Cambridge community.” Cambridge Middle School’s deputy principals Julie Dawick and Bridget Watkins were very proud of Luke’s initiative. “I think it’s just so powerful for a kid to do that… in the future they can say yes, I helped fundraise for that,” said Dawick.

What your Granddad did in the war Want to find out more about your Grandad’s time in the war? Two interesting activities along these lines will be at the Armistice in Cambridge event.
The first is the Auckland Museum cenotaph. The cenotaph is a comprehensive online hub for stories of New Zealand service personnel; it currently contains approximately 234,000 records. You will be able to search Online Cenotaph, lay a virtual poppy against a specific person’s name and contribute additional information to the database. Each kiosk contains a photo booth that enables you to digitise your family's war related items
such as medals, diaries, letters and more, within minutes. The digitised objects are immediately uploaded to the relevant service person’s Online Cenotaph record for the world to see and future generations to remember. So bring in your family’s letters, medals, photographs and war memorabilia relating to those who have served. Poppy badge making will be available for children.
Got a set of medals from World War I, World War II or other wars your relatives served in? Bring them along for identification. You can learn how to display and care for them, what they were awarded for and when. With only two weeks to go, the programme of activities for Armistice in Cambridge is filling up. Of note are the range of fun and education activities for kids to do. Airsoft guns, archery, rowing a Navy
cutter and firing a Roman catapult will be there, these proving to be very popular options last year. And to add to the hardware on display will be the huge Abbot self-propelled gun. Looking and operating like a tank, this vehicle was in service with the British Army in the 60s and 70s. It is one of a number of historic military vehicles that will appear at the event.

Family fireworks fun at Karapiro The amazing professional pyrotechnics display enjoyed at Karapiro last year will return to the lake this weekend for another epic night of Guy Fawkes fireworks. This year organisers of the Cambridge Real Estate Family Fireworks have made it much easier for people to get to and from the event, introducing a Park’n’Ride bus service to enable families – along with their buggies, pushchairs and picnic baskets – to attend without worrying about getting a park. When full, buses will depart from the Carlyle Street end of Lamb Street around 5.30pm on Saturday, dropping people off at the Don Roland’s Centre of the Mighty River
Domain, where they will be picked up and returned to their cars at the end of the fireworks display. There will still be limited parking at the event, though it requires a carparking ticket – available at www. cambridgefireworks. co.nz – in addition to entry tickets. Parking time is between 5.30pm and 8.30pm, with the event concluding around 10pm. Tickets range from $6 to $11. Organisers say event-goers will not be disappointed with this year’s epic line up of pyrotechnics, which will include fireworks being let off from the lake in multiple locations.

Bihoro trip yields big ideas
Among those making up a delegation of 10 who visited Cambridge’s Japanese sister city Bihoro earlier this month was Waipa District Mayor Jim Mylchreest, who has returned with a mixed bag of ideas. By Viv Posselt This was the Mayor’s first visit to the Japanese city of around 20,000, and one which marked the 20th anniversary of the signing
of the sister-city agreement. The New Zealand group also attended commemorations marking the 130th anniversary of the founding of Bihoro. Mr Mylchreest said
he found the exchange of ideas with local government officials in Japan to be particularly interesting from a local government perspective, and referenced the
Waipa District Mayor Jim Mylchreest with Bihoro Mayor, Koji Tsuchiya, during the New Zealand delegation’s visit to Cambridge’s sister city.

difference between Japanese and New Zealand systems in terms of service provision. Mr Mylchreest said Bihoro had a comprehensively equipped hospital with around 100 beds for its residents, with services delivered at local level. It was equipped with a CT scanner and operating rooms, it provided a range of other health services such as geriatric care, and general practitioners worked out of the hospital. “Those with specific conditions or ailments are sent elsewhere; it is a very efficient system. It could be a model we should look at copying. “It was also interesting to see how many activities which would be funded here through the rates take are funded over there by central government. Take the Cambridge pool development for example;
were we in Bihoro, 80 percent of the cost would be funded by central government.” This year’s group of 10 included Mr Mylchreest and his wife Robyn; Deputy Mayor Grahame Webber; Councillor Elwyn Andree-Wiltens; Council’s Te Takawaenga Chuck Davis and his wife Carol Thomas; Bihoro Sister City committee member Brent Nielsen; Robyn Maxwell, widow of Murray Maxwell who established the sister city agreement; translator Ryu Imahashi; and Cambridge Community Board member Julie Epps. The Waipa District Council funded Mr Mylchreest and Chuck Davis – the others funded the trip themselves. Brent Nielsen said the sister relationship that had grown from a relationship built between Professor Masahara Yamaki and
Waipa District Council employee, the late Murray Maxwell, had blossomed over the past two decades. He said he was surprised to have met over 100 people at the 20th anniversary celebrations “who have briefly traded towns, including high school students, townspeople and council staff”. “The people of Bihoro value the sister city relationship immensely,” he said. Julie Epps said delegation members were home-hosted during the visit. The group was taken on tours around Bihoro, into schools, hospitals, factories and other facilities. They had a meeting with the indigenous people of the area – the Ainu – and took part in a short ceremony at Bihoro’s memorial to Murray Maxwell.
Boost for VFW Violence Free Waipa (VFW) received a $400 boost to their coffers recently, with a donation from Westpac’s local sponsorship fund. The money will be put to good use, coordinator Hannah Glover said, earmarked for training and mentoring for the town’s anti-violence champions. Forty-three champions from across the community have been “shoulder-tapped” and trained to be able to assist those affected by family violence. “The champions are all through the community, trained up to be able to listen and link into agencies, it might be just a conversation but there are levels of engagement,” Hannah said. The initiative was launched in the town in June, and so far, 440 posters featuring the locals have been printed and billboards are planned for prominent
locations around the town. Billboards are planned for beside the Warehouse, by the Cambridge Fitness Centre, next to Countdown and at the netball courts, Hannah said. Money to run the campaign, including the billboards and promotional materials, comes from a Ministry of Social Development fund, Hannah said, and will not include donations from the public such as the one from Westpac. The champions campaign is running throughout the country, and it is hoped that it will encourage people who are suffering from family violence to speak up and seek help. It’s OK to ask for help. If you are experiencing family violence you can phone 0800 456 450 to talk to someone, or if you or someone else is in immediate danger, call the police on 111.

Sporting talent gets rewarded By Sophie Iremonger The Perago Trust, a Cambridge organisation supporting local athletes to reach elite level, announced the recipients of their biannual funding round last month – Ellesse Andrews, Ben Kirsop, Jordan Woodall and Sam Cooke – receiving a combined total of $11,500 to go toward their sporting pursuits. Ken “Jake” Moreland, Chairman on the Perago Trust, said it had been a difficult selection process. “A lot of these kids are great kids, Cambridge has so many talented young sports people,” Moreland said. “We thought that they all showed great promise, they’re all making enormous sacrifices for their sport.
“They’re working towards becoming professional athletes, and a lot of these sports can be quite demanding, they can’t or can only work jobs in bits and pieces… so we’re there to try and bridge that gap for them and help them reach their goals.” Ninety-three Cambridge athletes have been supported by the Perago Trust in pursuing the world sporting stage since its inception in 2013. With top-level athletes moving to Cambridge for its sports performance hubs, rubbing shoulders with the town’s homegrown talents, Moreland said the Trust still keeps its focus on athletes who are from Cambridge, have strong

Ben Kirsop, a recent recipient and Cambridge High School grad, said the support he had received since 2015 had made all the difference in making it onto Kiwi rowing crews and competing on the world stage. “It’s seriously very helpful, I don’t think I would be where I am today without their support,” said Ben. “Being an unfunded athlete, anything really does help.” The under 21 TransTasman 8’s gold medallist, who works part-time for Karapiro Rowing Inc, looks forward to being able to spend more time rowing and hopes to make it onto the U23 quad team once again, taking part in the World Champs in Poland next year.

donations and support from the community. More information can be found

Cambridge golf Danny and Mel on stage
Supplied by Cambridge Golf Club A change to the playing format to “Russian Roulette” added further interest to the large field on Vets day. In this format, players are paired-off and after each hole their stableford points are multiplied together, which can create fluctuating scores. Each player supporting their partner for a good result. Joe Fraser and John Nesbit were the winning partnership, drawn by computer, from Don Campbell and Jan Mackenzie both pairs scoring 91 stableford points. They were followed by the pairing of Michael Ford and Stephen Cooper with 86 points, Richard Seabrook and Russell Johnson on 74 and Ken Mackenzie and Lawrence McDonnell coming in with 73 points. Ian Thomas scored a two on the 13th hole and Gary Bennett on the 8th hole and then he went on, to win the competition on the 9th hole. Russell Johnson won the longest putt on the 18th green.
Cambridge parents Danny and Mel Burt took part in the ‘Mums and Dads’ segment of the 2017 New Zealand Fitness Model Search on the weekend. “We had a fantastic weekend surrounded by like-minded people,” said Mel. Though they didn’t make it into the top three, Danny was awarded with a medal as a stand out from the group, one of the judges felt that although he didn’t place, he wanted to reward his work and commitment to encourage him further. The local couple have now planned a free family fun fitness session at the Wordsworth Street park. The first one will be held on Saturday, November 11.

Inspirit Gallery turning 10 Male choirs Inspirit Gallery is marking its first decade this month by holding a 10th Anniversary Exhibition running from November 10 through to December 10. The Tamahere-based gallery will launch the exhibition with an opening preview celebration on the afternoon of Sunday, November 12 – but because of space constraints, those keen to go along are asked to reserve attendance by phoning the gallery beforehand. The special anniversary exhibition will feature 10 artists whom gallery owner and curator Jenny Scown believes reflect the creative journey and development of Inspirit Gallery over the past decade – herself plus nine others. The group comprises Jenny, Annemieke Farmilo, Joan Fear, Jocelyn Pratt, Nick Dryden, Paul Herbert, Peter Radley, Rachel Olsen and Santie Cronje. “Each artist has made a significant contribution to the success of this destination gallery,” she said. “This exhibition marks an important

milestone for Inspirit Gallery and the fantastic artists and designers they represent. It is also an opportunity to say a big thank-you to everyone who has supported the gallery along the way.” A professional photographer and photographic artist, Jenny created Inspirit Gallery 10 years ago as the fulfilment of a dream to build a spacious contemporary art gallery in her backyard for the
exhibition of New Zealandmade art and to provide support for Waikato arts and craftspeople. Over the years, the purpose-built gallery and sculpture garden has evolved into a popular destination, attracting local, national and international visitors in growing numbers. Many of the visitors comment positively on the diversity of art and design found at Inspirit. The collection
includes ceramics, paintings, printmaking, photography, glass, jewellery, textile art, garden art, handcrafted furniture, upcycled art and woodwork. Those keen to go along to the November 12 opening preview from 2.30pm should contact Jenny Scown, preferably before November 5, on 07-856 3170 or 027 386 416, or email her at jenny@ inspirit.co.nz.

The two choirs will perform pieces both together and their own individual group performances, accompanied by Angela Smith for Waikato and Beverly Glover for Taranaki, on the piano. The show will include a range of spine-tingling songs, including Leonard Cohen’s Halleluiah and, a favourite for many of the Waikato members, I Dreamed a Dream from Les Miserables. Afternoon tea will be provided at the venue, St Andrew’s Church. Starting at 2pm, tickets will be available at the door – adults $15, concession $10. Children under 12 free.

Cyclists on track for Oceanias By Steph Bell-Jenkins
Cycling New Zealand’s elite riders will take valuable pedal strokes towards the 2020 Tokyo Olympics as they take on the Aussies at the Oceania Championships in Cambridge next month. Among them will be Cambridge’s Rushlee Buchanan, who won her first international podium place in Europe this year with her professional road cycling team, United Healthcare.
Having returned home for a packed summer season, Buchanan says riding on home soil will give the Kiwis a definite edge when the Avantidrome hosts the November 20-23 meet. “When it comes to an event like the team pursuit, seconds matter,” said the 29-year-old, who has raced professionally for 10 years. “We train on this velodrome five times a week, so we know everything about it – we know where the air comes
from, we know which boards are smooth – so it does help having that ingrained knowledge. “And after every race at the Oceanias I’m going to go to my own house and sleep in my own bed, so that’s probably the biggest thing.” Buchanan grew up in Te Awamutu but attended St Peter’s School for seven years and moved to Cambridge three years ago with her husband, professional American cyclist Adrian Hegyvary.

She was one of 19 athletes named in Cycling New Zealand’s elite squad on Thursday, as the sporting body launched its international track season at the Avantidrome. Buchanan returns to the women’s endurance squad with Michaela Drummond and Racquel Sheath, two of three teammates who won bronze with her at Hong Kong’s world championships in April. However, with Jaime Nielsen out due to health issues and Rio Olympian Lauren Ellis expecting the birth of her first child in November, the door is open for new blood to join the team pursuit combination. “NZ has a hugely successful junior programme, so it’s exciting to get some new girls through,” Buchanan said. With Buchanan’s team gunning for a podium finish at Tokyo, next month’s Oceania Championships in Cambridge – along with upcoming world cups in Canada and Chile this season – will provide valuable experience towards the 2020
Olympics. But while Buchanan is keen to beat a strong Australian team, her key focus is on using the Oceanias as a building block towards next year’s Commonwealth Games and world championships. “Right now, it’s not about peaking; it’s about getting the basics right and learning and developing as a team,” she said.
November will be a big month for New Zealand’s track cyclists, with two sprint-focused squads set to compete in the opening two UCI World Cup competitions in Europe prior to the Oceanias. The Kiwis will then head to February’s UCI World Championships in the Netherlands and the Gold Coast Commonwealth Games in April.

Mighty 11 rider in winning team Supplied by the Cambridge BMX Club Every young BMX rider soon learns about the ‘Mighty 11’s’ and aspires to be one when they turn 11 years old. The fastest 4 boys and 4 girls are selected in a trial to represent NZ as the Junior test team Mighty 11’s and compete against Australia for the Trans-Tasman trophy. Greer Hall from the Cambridge BMX Club was selected last month as the number three rider for the team backing up her previous selection in June where she raced with the NZ team in Sydney. She rates this experience as one of her most memorable (prior to last weekend) as a crash left her battling through her races with stitches in her chin and an undiagnosed wrist fracture. Since earning her place in the team last month, Greer has attended the training camps almost every weekend and worked hard training for the event. The meet was held in Whangarei
over labour weekend in conjunction with the BMX North Island Champs. The girls’ team had a tough battle scoring points across five races blocking and team riding against the four determined and skilled Australian girls.

boys’ and girls’ grade. They found the completion tough, but had a very exciting and close game against the Tokoroa Cavs. Max’s good driving and layups, combined with Malachi’s strong defence helped the team stay close to the lead, but they could just not pull ahead, losing by just 3 points. They did register a win in a noncompetition game against a Year 3 and 4 team. The other Year 5 and 6 team played in the boys’ grade. This team also worked hard against some experienced boys and were unlucky not to record a win. Caleb and Quinn paired up well to help get the team within 6 points of a win against Te Awamutu. Sunday, the Year 7s and 8s took to the court. The Cambridge girls fielded an enthusiastic team, ready to give all games their best effort. The format of the day meant the girls had to play a few boys teams, but this didn’t deter the girls and they played strong in all their contests. Two boys’ teams also
competed on Sunday. Many boys they were matched up against were representative players and this gave our boys a chance to push their own skills to new levels. Unfortunately
they could not get a win. All those who take part over the weekend thoroughly enjoyed themselves and are looking forward to more basketball.

It takes an extraordinary amount of energy and dedication to achieve the goals that you set for yourself. None more so than from the sportsmen and women we are celebrating through the Waipa Networks District Sports Awards. Each of the teams, individuals and support people nominated have expended enormous amounts of energy over a long period of time with the hope of being successful. For most nominees it is years of hard work, achieving goals and reaching even higher with each competition, pushing through exhaustion again and again to make all the time and effort worthwhile. Whether competing in the able bodied or disabled arenas, all athletes are looking to train efficiently and sustain their level of competitiveness at such a high level. It is a great accomplishment to win a National or World championship with many of those nominated looking ahead with aims to compete in the 2018 Gold Coast Commonwealth Games. Waipa Networks is proud to sponsor the Waipa District Sports Awards and, like the athletes and administrators we are celebrating, is looking at the ways that we can support the efficient use of energy in our community. I congratulate all nominees and wish the best of luck to those who go on to regional and national recognition. Adam Fletcher Chief Executive Officer Waipa Networks Ltd

DISCOVER PUTARURU... 5 minutes from Tirau Backlash halts resource application
By Sophie Iremonger
The company applying to take almost seven million litres of water a day from Putaruru’s Blue Spring withdrew its application to Waikato Regional Council just prior to the October 16 deadline, after receiving a rather negative response from the public and associated parties. After failing to obtain written approval from one of the affected parties – the Raukawa Settlement Trust – New Zealand Pure Blue Springs Limited informed the council that it would not be going
ahead with its resource consent application, which had proposed to take 6.9 million litres of water a day from Putaruru’s Blue Spring to send offshore. A Raukawa spokesperson said that while the organisation supported and encouraged endeavours which brought value to the region and its communities, it could not support those which came at the expense of the environment and natural taonga. NZ Pure Blue Springs Ltd – which is 61 per cent owned by overseas investors including
10 per cent Australian and some Chinese – had ambitions to become the Southern Hemisphere’s largest bottling plant, applying for a 15-year consent with the hope of opening the bottling plant by 2019. Most of the 228.3 million investment dollars for the new venture would have gone towards the bottling plant, planned for the old Carter Holt Harvey site near the Putaruru Hotel. 237 jobs would have been created, only 10 of which filled
outside of New Zealand. The company had also promised to donate money to a community trust. Due to the economic benefits projected for the region, the South Waikato District Council initially supported the plan. An online petition opposing the application for a resource consent also gained more than 70,000 signatures.
Soundscape show bringing back old school cinema Delaney Davidson's Magic Lightbox Tour of New Zealand will touch down in Putaruru at the end of this month, delivering an ingenious blend of live music and film. The New Zealand singer songwriter will "give a glimpse of forgotten time" in his homage to lost ways of storytelling, featuring dusty highways, old Europe, the ‘new world’ of the USA and New Zealand. The show follows the old-school ideas of a returned-traveller’s slide show, the projected image on a sheet in the living room, and live music in the cinema. Davidson’s road footage supplements this body of work, snatching field recorded visual, generic stock footage, scripted scenes and his own miniatures to spin a whole new layer over the sound he creates.
Balancing the tightrope between narrative and abstract, his work increasingly lets go of traditional song form and starts to move further out into the sound landscape. Catch him before he disappears again to distant parts unknown! The Tour reaches Putaruru on Tuesday, November 28, kicking off the show from 7.30pm. Tickets are $20, available from The Plaza, iSite Tokoroa, Diamond Jewellers Matamata and Eventfinda.co.nz.
Planning for Putaruru growth By Sophie Iremonger
(formerly Marjories)
NEW SEASON STOCK ARRIVING WEEKLY
30 Tirau Street, Putaruru | Ph 8837094
With Putaruru’s 20-year population decline taking a U-turn in recent years, the South Waikato District Council has introduced the Putaruru Growth Plan to help increase the amount of housing and land available for building. The plan was introduced last year and approved by the Council in recent months, now entering the District Plan Change phase. All going to plan, it will introduce around 43 new sections per year, adding a total of 1,300 sections over the next three decades. In order to achieve this, several rural areas adjacent to the town would be rezoned into a combination of residential, rural-residential and business zones. “The rate of development is dependent on factors like market demand and Council’s ability to service new development with infrastructure,” said the Council’s Community Group Manager, Sam Marshall.

In total over 130ha could be rezoned. Areas proposed for rezoning include the Maple Drive and Totara Street vicinity, Overdale Road, an area adjacent to Thornton Street and Alexandra Crescent, an area adjacent to Arapuni Roadd, Golf Street, and Lichfield Road, and an area in the Sholson Street and Ruru Crescent vicinity. Marshall said the growth planning ensures towns avoid unplanned development, sprawl, poor design outcomes and poor management of infrastructure. “Growth planning and the associated District Plan changes will save time and money associated with developing new sections,” he concluded. A survey held by the council found that 94% of respondents supported planning ahead for future growth, with a satisfaction rating of 3.6 out of 5 for the draft concept. There will be more opportunities for feedback through the District Plan Change. Further information on the project is available at www.southwaikato.govt.nz.

Thumbs up to the staff at Vege Fresh on Victoria St for believing me (they didn’t have to) and putting the transaction right. Thumbs down to drivers who continue being unable to use their indicators at roundabouts, and in turn lanes, particularly when exiting right or left (at roundabouts). Other drivers are not mindreaders, and clear signalling demonstrates you have some idea of road rules, and are a considerate driver. Thumbs up to the hardworking Council staff who keep the gardens in town looking beautiful - we appreciate their work! Thumbs down to the removal of the plastic centre bollards off the high-level bridge. These gave you a reassurance of not going over the line and without them it is scary for the elderly and learner drivers. Other people are saying the same thing. Thumbs up to the guy from A1 Electrical Solutions who made my problem his after I locked my keys and baby in my car and my cell phone was dead, and the sun was shining (for some reason). Thanks for saving my baby! Thumbs down to the person who removed a maple planted at Lake Te Ko Utu by the Cambridge Tree Trust. Do you have a "Thumbs up" or "Thumbs down" comment you'd like to share?

with Jan Bilton
Going green
A trip to the local Farmers’ Market last Saturday brought enjoyable lightness to my weekly menu. Large bags of crisp coriander, kale, spinach and watercress from Mr lettuce provided healthy, tasty options for lunch and dinner. Along with an abundance of avocados. I always knew that spinach was good for you.
The cartoon character Popeye attributed his muscular form to consuming large quantities of iron-packed cooked spinach. However, the scientist who discovered that spinach contained iron made a mistake when transposing his data. He put the decimal point in the wrong place and 3.5 milligrams of iron per 100 grams became 35
milligams. Edible roofing iron! When it comes to beneficial leafy green vegetables the kale family is definitely a go. Kale is an excellent source of vitamins A, B6, C and K and is surprisingly high in calcium. No part of the coriander plant need be wasted. The leaves are popular in salads and salsas, the
stems can be chopped for use in soups or stews, and the roots finely ground to flavour Asian dishes. Watercress — with its peppery flavour — is one of my faves. Besides making great salads, sandwiches and garnishes, it is just as tasty cooked in soups, sauces, fritters and omelettes.
Orange, watercress and avocado salad Finely sliced red cabbage adds colour to this salad. I use the fine serrated edge of a bread knife with a flexible blade to sliver the cabbage. Cranberry Dressing: 1/4 cup olive oil 1 large shallot, diced 1 large garlic clove, diced 1/4 cup cranberry drink 2 teaspoons each: maple syrup, chilli paste pinch five spice powder Salad: 2 tangy oranges 1 cup thinly sliced red cabbage 4 cups (50g) watercress 1 large spring onion, thinly sliced 1 large avocado, stoned, peeled and sliced
To make the dressing, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a small frying pan over medium heat. Add the shallot and garlic and cook on low heat, until softened. Whisk the cranberry drink, maple syrup, chilli paste and five-spice powder in a small bowl. Whisk in the remaining oil. Add the shallot and garlic mixture. To make the salad, peel and segment the oranges. Combine the cabbage, watercress, spring onion and orange segments and place on a platter. Just before serving, top with the avocado and drizzle with a little of the dressing. Excellent served with roast chicken. Serves 4.
Crispy kale 2 tablespoons olive oil freshly ground salt and black pepper to taste 1 clove garlic, crushed 3 cups sliced kale Preheat the oven to 190°C.
Combine the oil, seasonings and garlic. Place the kale in a roasting pan then toss together with the oil. Bake for about 10 minutes, until crisp, stirring once or twice. Serves 4 as a side dish.
Tortellini green salad Vinaigrette: 1/4 cup red wine vinegar 2 teaspoons Dijon-style mustard 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil Salad: 3-4 rashers, streaky bacon 125g round green beans 300g packet fresh tortellini 4 cups (65g) baby spinach leaves or torn spinach leaves 1/4 cup chopped dill freshly ground salt and pepper to taste To prepare the vinaigrette, whisk the vinegar and mustard until smooth. Gradually whisk in the olive oil.
THERE’S SOMETHING VERY SPECIAL ABOUT CAMBRIDGE RESTHAVEN
To make the salad, grill or microwave the bacon until crisp. Cut into large pieces. Blanch the beans until crisp tender. Drain and refresh in icy water. Cook the tortellini in a large saucepan of simmering water according to the packet instructions, until tender. Drain and place in a large bowl. Sprinkle with half of the vinaigrette. Cool for 10 minutes. Carefully toss the tortellini with the beans, spinach, dill and seasonings. Drizzle with the remaining dressing just before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature. Serves 4.

Public opinion on expressway By Sophie Iremonger A public information day held by the NZ Transport Agency last week gave locals the chance to have their say and get the details on the proposed route and interchange options for the southern extension of the Waikato Expressway. The project aims to extend the expressway from its end point, just south of Cambridge, to the State Highway 29 turn off at Piarere. The change is intended to improve travel reliability as well as reduce the number of serious and fatal crashes which have occurred along the dangerous stretch of road over the years, and at the SH1 and SH29 T-intersection. “What we’ve set up here today is the opportunity for the community to talk to the project team, we’ve got a few different specialists here, our team leaders… and fill out our survey, which is online,” said the Project Manager Adrian Kahn.
A similar public information day in February determined the corridor – or wider area – that the expressway extension would go through – through the Whitehall/Karapiro hills, meeting SH29 near the existing intersection. Last week’s event gave locals the chance to weigh-in on a more specific route, and the type of interchange that would connect it to SH29. “There’s a range of interchanges we could do, a large roundabout, a free-flowing interchange,” said Kahn, adding that all the details were available there on the day and on the NZTA website. Roger Gordon, a local resident who attended the info day and CEO of Destination Cambridge, said it was a “no brainer” to improve the road. “I was particularly supportive of option A1, which re-unites the Karapiro village on the southern side of the new motorway and makes the existing SH1 a local road,” he said.
Regarding the SH29 interchange, Gordon supported the idea of a simple roundabout, “but with an offramp merge road that influences particularly the international traveller to turn left at the roundabout”. The project was originally introduced under the National Party’s $10B Roads of National Significance policy. Now with the change of Government, Kahn said they would still continue on as planned. Kahn said results of the public consultation would be considered alongside other expert information to determine the route of the expressway extension and SH29 interchange. The final decision was expected to be available by the end of the year. The shortlist of the route and interchange options, as well as feedback submission forms, are available at www.nzta.govt.nz/ projects/cambridge-topiarere/.
Project manager Adrian Kahn discusses the option with Cambridge local Julie Epps at the info day.

Trampers hike Te Aroha
Submitted by the Cambridge Tramping Club Hoping (unrealistically) for a break in the clouds and constant drizzle, 14 of us set off to climb Mt Te Aroha - at 952 metres, the highest point in the Kaimai ranges - a good challenging one-day tramp as with all the rain quite slippery underfoot and no reward of a view from the top this time, but the bush does take on quite a magical quality in the light rain. All agreed though it was an enjoyable day even the 3 that chose the long way down the road. Also, the 2 that only made it half way and had to endure a leisurely soak in the hot pools followed by coffee and cake while they waited for their more intrepid companions. The next tramp is on Sunday 5th November, the Ngamuwahine track in the Southern Kaimai range. Please contact John for more information on 07 8717925 or 027 598 9565.

Follows our three under-appreciated and over-burdened women as they rebel against the challenges and expectations of the Super Bowl for moms - Christmas. And if creating a more perfect holiday for their families wasn't hard enough, they have to do all of that while hosting and entertaining their own mothers. By the end of the journey, our moms will redefine how to make the holidays special for all and discover a closer relationship with their mothers.

Thor: Ragnarok
No Ordinary Sheila
Reviewed by Claire Castle This film is a gift to Kiwi audiences, with Taika Waititi’s distinctive humour woven throughout the film. There were plenty of laugh-out-loud moments throughout, including a character played by Taika himself. A thoroughly absorbing and spectacular movie, this should appeal to even those moviegoers who are not massive fans of the Marvel superhero franchise. There was an impressive lineup of stars including Tom Hiddleston, Cate Blanchett, Idris Alba and a hilarious outing by Jeff Goldblum. And, of course, Chris Hemsworth was Thor, and it was worth going to the movie just for that. Five stars.
