Please, stop the dumping

Jumble Around in Leamington is also often the target of dirty, smelly goods disguised as donations

Hospice shop manager, Helen Singers, is asking people to stop dropping donations that are little more than rubbish outside the shop.

By Sophie Iremonger

Op shops in Cambridge seem to have been treated more like landfill services than charity organisations recently, with an increasing number of cases where clearly unsellable items, as well as actual rubbish, are being dumped at storefronts during closed hours.

Helen Singers, manager of the Cambridge Hospice shop, said each Monday her volunteer staff are confronted with anywhere from five to twenty bags of

rubbish, and in the rare cases where decent items have been left, they’ve been rifled through and stolen.

Singers said the organisation does not want any items, good or otherwise, left at the shop when it is closed. Being open on Saturdays from 10am to 1pm, as well as 9am to 4pm Monday to Friday, should provide an opportunity for working people to get there during open hours. And a sign on the store front provides a phone number to for donation pick-ups.

Balloons to visit Karapiro Cambridge newsroom update It’s been all go in the swivelly chair this week, with plenty of news and things of interest flooding in the door. We have a special feature on local good sort Aaron Ure, who is stepping down from his roles with the community garden and Wheels in Motion, due to his health. Without people like Aaron, who work away diligently for the community, Cambridge would not be half the town that it is. Speaking of which, I had a visit from the Cambridge Tree Trust who have submitted an opinion piece about the council’s upcoming 10-year plan. Trees are a tricky one, and you don’t have to look far to find people on either side of that debate. What you can’t argue with, however, is that once established trees are cut down you can’t exactly just put them back if you realise you’ve made a mistake. The stakes are high, so it’s important that we all have our say when consultations on the 10-year plan open on March 15. Whatever your feelings on trees or anything else, it will be our chance to decide what Cambridge will be like in the years to come. Also, this week we’ve got a local business superstar Franny McInnes collecting sanitary supplies to combat “period poverty”, which is a very real problem for young girls in this country.

And, as ever, there were plenty of people around the place excelling at sport. Every week it amazes me how much is going on in Cambridge, and it’s always a real struggle trying to fit it all into the paper – it’s a bit like Tetris, putting this thing together. Anyway, we hope you enjoy the paper this week – we had a lot of fun bringing it to you (even though I suck at Tetris).

Cambridge will get its own taste of Balloons over Waikato later this month when the iconic Hamilton-based event sends hot air balloons out to Lake Karapiro.

At least five balloons will be at the Mighty River Domain from 5–8pm on Friday, March 23. They include the unique Resene Colour Fun for Everyone family; a trio of three balloons which fly together.

The Balloons Visit Waipa event, supported

by Waipa District Council, is free to enter.

In addition to the hot air balloons there will be amusement rides including a tea cup ride, mini merry-go-round, inflatable obstacle course and bouncy castle. Food and drink vendors are likely to be on site.

A rare opportunity to see a hot air balloon from the inside-out will require a gold coin donation with all money going to Rotary International.

The balloons will start inflating around 6pm, providing a stunning lakeside

spectacle.

Waipa District Council staff will be at the event, encouraging residents to share their thoughts on the council’s spending plans for the next decade.

Cambridge and Tokoroa are the only two Waikato towns being visited as part of the Balloons over Waikato festival this year.

Letter to the editor The Editor A new sewerage bridge is being built over the river by the old one (by the Gaslight Theatre).

What is going to happen to the old one? Will it be retained in its present form? Will it be demolished? Or, will it be converted into a walkway?

This would open up a very special public walkway for our enjoyment.

Robert Peake

Council response: The Council began upgrading the wastewater pipe and pipe bridge in January

to cope with Cambridge growth and to make the structure earthquake resistant.

Council did consider adding a walkway/ cycleway to the new pipe bridge or retaining the old bridge for this purpose.

But project costs would have risen from around $7.7 million to nearly $20 million and this could not be justified.

There are also issues about the location of the bridge and its suitability for use as a walkway/cycleway.

Once the current project is complete, the old bridge will be removed. Updates on the project can be found at www.waipadc.govt. nz/pipe-bridge.

Op shops not rubbish dumps Quickfire News Continued from page 1

Because items left outside are often soiled, smelly and unsanitary, basically anything left at the store front is sent to landfill.

“It’s a huge cost to us,” said Singers. “Donate, don’t dump.

Our slogan is turning second hand goods into first class care, and the more that people dump rubbish on our door, the more we won’t be able to provide. We have to pay to dispose of that and we need all the money we can to provide services to people free of charge.”

Jumble Around in Leamington, which donates one hundred percent of their proceeds back into the Cambridge community, has reported the same kind of problems, with unsanitary rubbish left to greet them every Monday morning.

“Unsellable items are coming in daily, the worst stuff is left outside after hours… The more we pay for rubbish removal, the less we can give back to the community,” said Marianne Jarvie, president of Jumble Around, who reported that

people had also stolen decent items left outside the shop. “If members of the public see people taking bags from outside the shop they should take a photo.

“We have phone numbers on our door for the public to phone us if they see bags left outside.

We usually can be there in a few minutes. We frequently are phoned by people after hours wanting to donate good items, so we are happy to come down and open our shop. This way we are not having them stolen.”

Cambridge’s Craig off to the GC Newlands is excited to cover the big team.

“Every sport has its unique injuries, and you’ve got Body Performance Clinic’s main man, Craig Newlands, all sorts of physiques to work with - the tiny gymnasts, is heading to the Commonwealth Games in the Gold the big hammer throwers, the basketballers and rugby Coast at the end of the month. players, all mingling around in one spot.

Newlands said he is pumped for it. “Being back in that This will Newlands’ first Commonwealth Games, environment again, in the village with all our amazing following being the NZ rowing team physiotherapist at athletes.

Can we fix it? (Yes, we can) Locals are encouraged to bring loved but broken items along to a new initiative – the Repair Co Op Cambridge – to see if they can be fixed.

New crisis helpline established Due to the increased demand for responses to mental health and social distress in New Zealand, the Ministry of Health have set up a new helpline for people in need.

Get your rabbit vaccinated The SPCA is warning rabbit owners to get their pets vaccinated as soon as possible, after approval to release of the K-5 strain of the rabbit haemorrhagic virus disease (RHDV1-K5) was announced recently. The virus will be released around the country, including in Cambridge, and is expected to kill around 40 per cent of the country’s wild rabbit population.

The disease can be spread by insects, such as flies, and also by contact with infected rabbits. Rabbits have become a popular pet for New Zealanders in recent years, with an estimated 116,000 companion rabbits in New Zealand, and 3 per cent of households having an average of two rabbits.

“A large number of pets could be at risk, so we are urging all rabbit owners to contact their veterinarian immediately for up-to-date advice on how to protect their rabbit from the new strain of this deadly virus,” said SPCA Chief Scientific Officer Dr Arnja Dale. * * * *

Census done and dusted Tuesday was Census day, with the emphasis this year being placed on completing the five-yearly snapshot online. But it’s not too late – residents who have not completed the Census are urged to get it done asap or face a follow-up letter, followed by knock at the door with a “please explain” if you still don’t get it done. The Statistics Act of 1975 requires everyone in New Zealand on Tuesday to take part, whether you want to or not. Failing to participate can result in a fine of between $50 and $500. The data obtained from the Census is used to guide spending by government agencies, helping to determine how billions of dollars of government funding is spent across the country. Councils, iwi, and businesses use census information to help work out the core needs of their area or services. Community groups and organisations use the information to support funding applications and make the case for improvements within their communities.

Anyone with questions can phone the Census helpline on 0800 CENSUS (0800 236 787). * * * *

Big plans for community house

By Claire Castle The Cambridge Community House has a pretty obvious problem – the two portable buildings out the front are spelling out the service’s need for more space. Manager Joanne Turner (formerly MacLennan), who took over running the house last May, said growth in the community has stretched the house to capacity.

Council has come to the party, extending their lease by an extra 8 metres out the back, so planning is underway for a new building to ease the pressure. The new building, plans for which are still being finalised, is expected to have seven offices and a reception area, but will also need to have a welcoming feel, Joanne said. “We are house by name and house by nature,” she said, adding that community feedback has clearly shown people value the homely feel of the current premises.

Joanne said the focus of the house is changing, too, as they want to encourage people to come in before they are at rock bottom. “It’s fence at the top of the cliff stuff, rather than the ambulance at the bottom,” she explained. “We’re there to help with life’s curve-balls.”

It’s all part of a move toward a more holistic service, centred on client wellbeing, including the free financial mentoring which is on offer at the house.

Kiri Gray, who has been at the house for the past 30 years, managing it until 2007, said she had her doubts about the financial mentoring model at first, but now sees the

results it is yielding for her clients. The old budgeting system just looked at the numbers, whereas financial mentoring also delves into what has led people to their current situation and what their goals are for the future, she explained.

“People are now looking forward rather than looking back…it really works well.”

Hopefully, over the coming months, both Joanne and Kiri’s rooms out the front will be replaced by a new office out the back as Cambridge Community House steps it up a notch to serve everyone in the community, no matter what walk of life they are from.

Because everyone can have a curve-ball from time to time.

Free health checks could save lives

By Viv Posselt

Local men are being urged to pick up potential health snags early by getting a free “warrant of fitness” check at next week’s Men’s Health Event at the Cambridge Baptist Church.

Organising the event for the second time are Cambridge Baptist church members Delia Edmeades and Helen Vaughan. The first was held in 2016 and resulted in around 100 “WOF” cards being issued to blokes happy to come in for on-the-spot free medical advice.

“We know that a few skin cancers early signals of heart disease were picked up during that first event,” said Delia. “That tells us it has a real value.

Our health providers were busy throughout that event … there will be even more available for the public this time around.

“We’re encouraging as many men as possible – young and old – to give up an hour or so of their day to access the free health

screening.”

They said men often consider themselves relatively ‘bullet-proof’ and visit medical professionals when a health issue may already be established.

It was far better, they suggested, to come to the event, talk through any potential physical or mental health issues, and detect potential problems as early as possible via the free screening offered by health providers at the event.

The women have spread the word around town and at rural schools, and Helen – a faith community nurse suggested that workplaces encourage their male employees to take an hour off work on Friday to go to the event.

“At the end of the day, having a healthy workforce benefits both the employee and the employer. It’s an easy way for businesses to look after their staff.”

The range of providers on tap next Friday will include those screening for heart disease, a range of cancers and diabetes,

groups concerned with mental health issues, mobile pharmacists advising on medication, a podiatrist and those offering advice on hearing.

This year’s event will be move interactive than the first. Based on new research which shows a person’s height to weight ratio to be a better predictor of heart disease and diabetes than body mass index, two GPs will be on hand to do measurement checks on men coming through.

Providers will also be able to do checks on blood pressure, glucose and cholesterol levels, there will be mole-map information available, and on show will be a “colossal colon”, aimed at providing a visual incentive to learn about bowel cancer.

“Overall,” said Delia, “some eight men die each day in New Zealand from preventable health issues, and our rates of mortality around heart disease and diabetes particularly are very high.”

Among the 30 or so providers will be Sport

Waikato and its Green Prescription model, Life Unlimited with information around mobility and assistance devices, and a counsellor from Cambridge Community House.

The event is organised by the Cambridge Baptist Church, and will be held at its 58 Queen Street premises between 10am and 2pm on Friday, March 16.

Morning tea will be available.

Watering can winners Congratulations to Esther and Lucy, who each won a Smart Water watering can and shower timer for their watersaving suggestions.

Lucy’s husband suggested, “If it’s brown, flush it down, if it’s yellow let it mellow”, while her daughter suggested having a freezing cold shower so you don’t stay in there too long, however it was Lucy’s tip that secured her the prize:

“Once the kids are in bed and the house is peaceful at last, I grab my watering can and decant their used bath water to water my vege garden. It is more time consuming than grabbing the hose, but I find it calming tottering back and forth with my watering can.” Plus the soapy water kills aphids, she added.

Esther said: “I put a big basin into my kitchen sink and wash my dishes in that then the water gets tipped onto the garden if it has been wet and there is plenty of water already on the garden I either water pots that may need it or I am going to start tipping it into my washing machine to wash farm clothes.”

Big shoes to fill at gardens

By Sophie Iremonger A pillar of the Cambridge community has been forced to step back from his role at the Cambridge Community Gardens and hopes more people will help keep the spirit of the gardens alive and well.

“Last year’s falls were an eye opener for me, when I was given the ultimatum from health professionals to pull back for the sake of staying out of a wheelchair for life,” explained Aaron Ure. “I barrelled on to prove them wrong to my own detriment. Now for the sake of my health and mobility, I need to hand this project over to a wider community

base… And after five years being here, we actually need a new infusion, there’s other people and other ideas that need to come forward.”

Originally the brainchild of Resthaven resident George Russell, the gardens were spurred into momentum by Jenny Wilson of Sustainable Waipa, who later asked Aaron, who had worked with her father at Resthaven, to get involved in early 2012. “And I never left,” said Aaron.

“It has changed so much from a small group of people, with just a couple of gardens… we’ve grown in numbers, we’ve grown in projects, in our ability

stepped forward when we’ve needed something has been just incredible,” said Aaron, crediting countless Cambridge good sorts for their vital support, including former Rouge owners Phil and Alanna MacKay, Bunnings, Amber Nurseries, Farmlands, the local Lions and the Cambridge Christmas Festival Society.

“I want to see more people like Alison and Heather working in the gardens, more of our community hearts being pitched in… new people, younger folk, groups like Lions, Rotary, scouts, agencies that are into community support, to have more representation on our board… those people can take that vision further.”

On Sunday, March 25 a public information evening will be held at the Resthaven Village Centre, 4 Vogel St, at 7pm followed by a light supper, where members of the public are encouraged to discuss the future plans for the Cambridge Community Garden.

to feed our gardeners, seniors and those in need in the community by 500-fold…

It’s gone from being a nice idea to a community.”

“His commitment to this garden has been unbelievable,” said Heather Brand, a volunteer. “But he can’t do it now, he still tries to do it,” she laughed.

“We need six people to replace him!” added volunteer Alison Hucke.

“The commitment of the committee and our regular gardeners has just been inspirational,” a modest Aaron said.

Pregnant mums pass on their periods On International Women’s Day (March 8), pregnant women were encouraged to donate their new, unopened packs of sanitary pads and tampons to help Kiwi schoolgirls who are missing out on their education because of “period poverty”.

But don’t worry if you missed out, a local entrepreneur will be collecting the supplies to pass on for the whole month of March.

Franny McInnes, the director of Cambridge-based online maternity store Breastmates, said that if every pregnant mum in New Zealand passes on the menstruation supplies she won’t be using during pregnancy, it would make a significant difference to the lives of Kiwi students who can’t afford to purchase them.

“I was speaking to a friend who is a teacher, and I was shocked to learn that

a huge number of Kiwi girls miss school on days when they have their period, simply because they don’t have sanitary supplies,” Franny said. “I hadn’t realised this was an issue in New Zealand, and I never thought of sanitary products as a luxury item.

“Many young women’s educational opportunities are being limited because they can’t afford sanitary products,” Franny added.

“I’ve built a great local community of women through Breastmates…and since many of them are pregnant or breastfeeding new babies and aren’t having their periods during this time, I’m asking them to donate their unused packs of sanitary napkins and tampons, which I’ll then pass along to charities who can distribute them to Kiwi girls in need.

“There were 59,610 births in New

Zealand in 2017,” she continued. “If we Army, and SPINZs (Sanitary Products in have a similar number of births in 2018, New Zealand Schools).”

Franny is also hopeful that our Prime that works out to over half a million packs of sanitary products women aren’t using Minister, Jacinda Ardern, will donate the during the nine months of pregnancy. sanitary products she hasn’t used during Donating them to Kiwi girls in need is a her own pregnancy to the project.

Franny will collect new, unused, small gesture that will have a big impact – not only will our girls have access to unopened packs of disposable sanitary the supplies they need, it will also enable napkins and tampons from March 8-31. them to attend school during their periods The products can be posted to Pass On Your Period, c/- Breastmates, PO Box with dignity and confidence.

ISSUES?

“Period poverty” is when women are unfairly disadvantaged because they cannot afford sanitary items.

Many young women who can’t afford sanitary pads and tampons will either miss school altogether during their period or will use unhygienic and dangerous substitute items such as rags, pages from telephone books, and newspapers instead.

Retaining Cambridge’s character By the Cambridge Tree Trust

A DELIGHTFUL EXPERIENCE

The Olde Creamery is a delightful step back in time experience.

Set among mature trees and gardens, it is a tranquil and restful destination venue.

The Olde Creamery has seen many changes over time-from a working creamery in the 1900’s, to a fertilizer company in the 50’s, to a miniature rose nursery in the 90’s and now an award winning cafe and function centre.

The Olde Creamery Cafe is fully licensed and opens Wednesday through to Sunday 10am to 4pm with a wonderful hearty country menu with gluten free, dairy free and vegetarian options. We have been here as a cafe for 16 years. We do open in the evenings on request for private dinners and open to bigger garden groups and the like on a Monday or Tuesday.

The Olde Creamery is a boutique wedding venue specializing in small intimate weddings catering for up to 60 guests. There is a small private conference room upstairs which seats 20 with catering onsite.

Victorian High Teas are a specialty at The Olde Creamery - imagine lace table clothes, fine china teacups with tea strainers, leaf tea, silver cutlery, sugar cubes and pearl clad Tea Towers filled with dainty delights - what a way to celebrate a special day!

The Kiwi Cookie Company is a new addition to The Olde Creamery. We design, bake and ice these charming cookies onsite and they are available in 65 cafes throughout New Zealand - we supply Hobbiton, Real Journeys and several Cambridge cafes - go to our website for a peak at these cute fellows. They are wonderful for children’s parties, baby showers, wedding favours, corporate functions - the list is endless. We currently have 110 designs and we can create a cookie just for you!

What sort of town do we want to live in in the future? By 2050, Cambridge will have 30,000 residents and thousands of new houses lining new streets.

Currently, the Waipa District Council is formulating a new 10year plan and citizens get to have their say in March. It is important that the protection of the character of Cambridge involves the positive encouragement of high standards of development and intensive tree planting as well as preservation.

The existence of the large number of substantial trees gives Cambridge its unique character.

The Cambridge Tree Trust is concerned that the beautiful treed environment that we now enjoy will be lost or greatly diminished in the new developments. With the housing density rising from 9 to an average of 12-15 houses per hectare, there will be little space for trees in private gardens. If the large trees that grace our town at present are to be part of the new suburbs, they will have to be planted in streets, parks and roundabouts.

If a vigorous programme of planting trees of the species which characterise Cambridge is not pursued in the new developments, there is a strong risk that Cambridge will lose much of its character.

It is vital that tree preservation and tree planting be considered together.

Existing trees on subdivisions must be protected and new trees planted. Reserves in subdivisions should preserve individual or groups of trees when land is subdivided.

Essential features of trees in Cambridge is that significant

numbers of the same species have been planted together.

The continuity of scale is a very important part of the character of Cambridge. Future planting should be carried out on a similar basis and should be included in the council’s tree policy.

The guidelines in the WDC Development and Subdivision Manual must be strictly adhered to and closely monitored. The council must always represent the residents and not bend the rules for developers.

In the 1880s, the council displayed great foresight in developing the town belt and the domain. May our present council show the same

Smart Water starts with next generation Children’s performer Chris Lam Sam flew in from Wellington last week to teach Cambridge children about saving water through the Smart Water campaign, which aims to change how water is used and viewed. Smart Water coordinator Michelle Templeton joined Chris on Wednesday for his visit to an early childhood centre in Pirongia, and Bunnies Licensed Childcare and PreSchool in Cambridge.

“It’s a pilot this year to see how we go, and if successful we’ll roll it out to more centres next year,” said Michelle, adding that it had been successful thus far.

“We really want them to think about their water usage,” Chris Lam Sam said during his visit to Bunnies. “We really want the kids to focus on not wasting water at home, and a lot of that would happen through taps, because taps are fascinating. You turn it on and water just gushes out, it’s this event, it’s this opportunity to play, but actually what

we want to do is remind children that water is precious, turn it off, and if you don’t need it turn it off then save it so everyone can share it.”

During his visit, Chris taught the children about where water comes from, how important it is and how they can save on water, namely by turning off leaky taps and turning off the tap when brushing their teeth.

Waipa residents use an average of 250 litres of water each day, 26 more litres than Hamilton City’s average.

Pizzini’s Cambridge roots

By Viv Posselt

Dave Pizzini, the man who beat four other challengers to win the Manurewa Local Board by-election by a healthy margin, has strong connections to Cambridge.

The son of long-time locals Alison and Theo Pizzini, Dave is the eldest of three boys – all of whom went to Cambridge Primary, Cambridge Intermediate and Cambridge High School.

His mum is a former nurse and

midwife whom he reckons has probably delivered many Waikato residents, his dad has agriculture in his veins. And even as David prepares for his official swearing in at the next Manurewa Board meeting on March 15 – the Ides of March – he is very sensibly making time to help organise an appropriate soiree for Alison’s upcoming 80th.

Keeping things in perspective, appreciating the value of family seems to be the measure of the man; it quite possibly helped him win his first political campaign a full 1627 votes ahead of runner-up and Labour Party candidate Brooke Loader.

The January/February by-election was triggered by the resignation of former board member Simeon Brown, who vacated the position after being elected MP for Pakuranga in last year’s general election. Dave, who has lived in Manurewa for almost 20 years, was persuaded to throw his hat into the ring by long-time friend turned campaign manager, Manurewa-Papakura Ward councillor Daniel Newman.

Dave campaigned on the Manurewa Action Team political ticket. He put his heart and soul into winning the seat but said he was still “surprised by the majority”.

Local rowers top table at champs

By Sophie Iremonger

St Peter’s School and Cambridge High School rounded out the top four schools competing at the weekend’s North Island Secondary School Rowing Championships held at Lake Karapiro. The local students went up against 1889 competitors from 93 schools around the North Island, battling tough weather conditions as competition got underway.

Fortunately, the wind and cloud were replaced by sunnier skies for finals racing on Saturday and Sunday.

Hamilton Boys’ High School

was named as the overall champion school on Sunday afternoon, securing the Derbyshire Shield with a total of 81 points. St Peter’s followed in a close second with 76 points, followed by Waikato Dio in third with 27 points, Cambridge High School fourth with 20 points, and St Paul’s fifth with 18.

The St Peter’s team of 86 athletes were celebrating the school’s first ever win in the girls’ under 18 coxed eight final, leading from start to finish to add to ten other gold medals, as well as six silver and three bronze.

Thirteen students chalked up the achievement of bringing

Fiftysix of the St Peter’s rowers will go on to compete at the national secondary school championships on March 19 in Twizel, more

famously known as Maadi Cup. Cambridge High School came away with six medals at the weekend’s competition, missing out on a seventh medal by twenty milliseconds. The senior boys squad in particular had a highly successful day on Sunday, winning two golds, two silver and one bronze, along with boating the first eight in decades into the

A final. The under 15 girls double of Ellie-Mai Wright and Macy Smith earned a silver medal in an exciting finish, Seth Hope secured gold in the under 17 boys’ single sculls final, and deputy head boy Sam Hogan secured gold in his under 18 single sculls final by just over two seconds. The latter pair also secured bronze in the under 18 double sculls.

XRACE back to Cambridge

By Poppy Wortman

NZHL XRACE - the family adventure race - returns to Cambridge this month.

Sort of like The Amazing Race, XRACE is a mystery adventure race made up of a parent and child. The duos race together side-by-side against other family teams to complete ten mystery challenges, a mixture of fun tasks which carry life skills as well.

Last year more than 600 Cambridge entrants took place, with father-daughter duo winners Hamish Martin and Kyla Kerr-Rushbrooke taking it out in a speedy 40 minutes and 35 seconds.

XRACE director Tamara Hermans said the event is

Then we’ve got the solution for you with the Panasonic ECO-Max Bagged Vacuum Cleaner.

The Panasonic Eco-Max vacuum cleaner is significantly more efficient than a vacuum cleaner with a conventional motor.

Thanks to the higher suction power there is no need to repeatedly go over a clean area. The result is more suction power with less energy consumption.

a real, authentic bonding experience.

“The XRACE course always rewards the teams that work together,” she said. “Easier said than done!”

The 2018 Cambridge leg is being held Friday March 23 at Lake Te Koo Utu. With the average distance between challenges 300m, families of all fitness levels can sign up – a parent and their child aged six to 14 years old.

Tamara said the competition is not always the focus.

“The teams can choose their pace and go as slow or fast as they want. Completing the course is the goal.

“This is what XRACE is all about. The day a mum gets to race side-by-side with her son,

a dad with his daughter, or vice versa.”

Masters cyclists on a rol

By Claire Castle

The Waikato-Bay of Plenty masters’ cyclists were getting ready to head down to Invercargill for the NZ Age Group Track Cycling Championships this week, putting in some last-minute training at the Avantidrome on Friday.

The masters team – six women and six men – has been trained by Vicki Fleming, an accomplished competitor in her own right, who team member Samantha Fairweather jokingly said, “likes to try and kill her athletes”. Her teammate Claire Sherrington agreed. “She might be blonde, but she’s an assassin,” Claire laughed.

Busy weekend for footballers

By Josh Easby

OP

TO ENI DA NG Y

Cambridge had a feast of football on the weekend with players of all ages heading to John Kerkhof Park for preseason games. The Reds’ top team beat Auckland’s Papatoetoe 3-1 on Saturday to extend the side’s pre-season run of wins to three. On Sunday, the club staged its eighth annual Cambridge Sevens (men’s) tournament, while more than 180 boys and girls took part in the first stage of grading for the new season.

And the club’s activities will ramp up further this weekend with the Cambridge Sevens (women’s) tournament and more grading games involving more than 300 youngsters. The club is gearing up for a big winter season with the first team returning to football’s Northern League after being promoted to the competition as Waikato/Bay of Plenty champions.

Cambridge hosted Papatoetoe, the team relegated from the Northern League to make way for the Reds. It promised to be a good test of the relative standards of the northern competition.

But a scrappy first hour made it difficult to make comparisons as both sides squandered chances in the heat.

Cambridge took the lead in the 6th minute when Joshua Clarkin casually slotted the ball home from close giving home supporters the feeling the game could become one-sided.

However, the visitors almost levelled a few minutes later when Cambridge ‘keeper Patrick Steele brought down a

Papatoetoe striker in a one-on-one. Steele benefitted from some pre-season leniency from the referee, but Cambridge conceded the free kick on the edge of the area.

Steele then easily saved the resulting direct free kick. Two minutes later, Papatoetoe struck the crossbar and then both sides traded wayward shots with the nets rarely threatened. Three goals in the last 20 minutes sorted the result.

The cancellation of the scheduled match between the two clubs’ reserves (because Papatoetoe could not muster a team) meant the Cambridge coaches were able to rest some senior players and give first team opportunities to some of the reserve squad. First team regulars Nathan Claridge, Callum MacLeod and new signing Wayne Teague were rested, while Blair and others from the reserves showed the depth of talent currently at the club.

The Cambridge Sevens were taken out by Hamilton-based Qooto-Qooto, a team of friends who formed their team specially for the 7-a-side competition.

They beat Bethlehem College 6-2 in an entertaining final after overcoming past tournament winners Whakatāne Town and Kawerau Sports in their lead-up games. The college students beat Te Awamutu’s Any Ideas in the semifinal. Qooto-Qooto become the seventh different side to take the sevens title in its eight years, demonstrating how open the tournament is.

Meanwhile, Cambridge’s junior ranks look to be as strong as ever with more than 300 boys and girls wanting to be

allocated teams for the winter season.

Two days of grading will be used to help place boys and girls in the teams most suited to their experience and ability.

Juniors co-ordinator Tim Bailey said he

was pleased with the numbers wanting to play football this year but said there was still time for new players to register with the club or come along to find out what’s available.

Beatson all Gold at Takapoto Estate Supplied

Maurice Beatson may have been the oldest competitor in the field but that didn’t stop him taking the honours in the Horse Grand Prix at the inaugural Takapoto Estate Show in Cambridge on Sunday.

He was the last of 10 combinations through to the jump-off over the Gerrit Bekerdesigned course – the leaderboard stacked at the top by three visiting Australians. Riding aboard his eight-year-old homebred mare Gold Locks, the Olympian

and World Championship representative was over the moon with the win. “She felt good today jumping but it is always hard work,” said Beatson, who was followed in second place, also on four faults, by visiting Aussie Brooke Langbecker aboard chestnut stallion Quintago I. Clint Beresford (Aus) finished third aboard Emmaville Jitterbug on eight faults, with Stuart Jenkins (Aus) on Fairview Aliquidam in fourth.

More than $30,000 was raised during the competition for the New Zealand team to compete at the FEI World Equestrian Games later this year in the United States.

Emma Watson (Morrinsville) and her delightful Maddox Fun House took out the Country TV Pony Grand Prix after a heartstopping jump-off against Olivia Apatu (Hawke’s Bay) aboard Alasaan Arzu.

The big open arena called for good fitness from the combinations. Apatu was clearly chasing a relatively careful clear but came unstuck early and ended with 12. Third, fourth and fifth places were filed by four-faulters Sarah West (Matamata) aboard Miss Mae West, Peita Milne (Nelson) on BG Lennox and Ally Carson (Putaruru) with Tiger Tale LS respectively.

The Ann Symes Memorial Horse 1.3m Derby brought the curtain down on an incredible four days of jumping at Takapoto Estate.

Denture & Hearing

Cambridge-trained Felaar added another win to his portfolio after a nail-biting victory in the Headquarters Viaduct 2100m at Ellerslie on Saturday.

Trained by Stephen Marsh, the four-year-old son of Ekraar and his jockey, Danielle Johnson, fought their way to the front from toward the rear of the field.

The steward’s report said Felaar was checked at the 1800m to avoid clipping heels, held up in the final straight before obtaining clear running at the 250m to win by one-and-quarter-lengths.

“My heart is still pumping hard,” said strapper and trackwork rider, Yusuke Sai. “He’s a damn good horse,” he added.

Going into Saturday, Marsh had high hopes for the progressive stayer.

“He’s got a good draw, he likes Ellerslie and in Rating 65 company he looks very hard to beat,” Marsh said.

Felaar was the top rated and weight horse in the race. He carried 60kgs to victory.

Felaar was bred by Monovale Holdings Limited and races in Sir Peter Vela’s white and blue silks. He is raced by Stephen Marsh, Sir Peter Vela and Leo Molloy.

Cambridge trainers win the NZ Derby

By Candice Gollan

Cambridge-trained, Vin De Dance, made an owner’s dream a reality after he was victorious in the Group 1 Vodafone New Zealand Derby (2400m) at Ellerslie on Saturday.

OTI Racing manager, Terry Henderson, was full of nothing but praise for Cambridge- trainers, Murray Baker and Andrew Forsman, after his derby dream came into fruition with the nail-biting defeat of Mongolianconqueror and the

pre-race favourite, Danzdanzdance.

“Murray and Andrew have done a remarkably good job and when it comes to stayers they’ve got no peers,” said Henderson.

Vin De Dance was purchased for $70,000.

“It’s an amazing story really and I saw him [Vin De Dance] in the ring [at Karaka] when he was passed in, I said to [Bloodstock agent] Phill Cataldo, who owned the horse and he said it was a mate of his, Luigi Muollo.

It was a local affair – Cambridge rider Jason Waddell rode Vin De Dance to victory in Ellerslie.

Cambridge-trained Vin De Dance (centre) took out the NZ Derby on Saturday.

Before purchasing the horse, Henderson asked Baker his opinion on him.

“We ended up getting him and now he’s won the Derby,” said Henderson.

Plans for Vin De Dance could include a trip across the ditch.

“He’ll go to Sydney as long as he pulls up well,” said Henderson.

Vin De Dance’s victory was a muchneeded pick me up for Novara Park’s Luigi Muollo, who remained in Vin De Dance’s ownership, after the recent passing of his foundation stallion, Jakkalberry.

Vin De Dance did not win the Derby

alone, on board was Cambridge jockey, Jason Waddell.

“It’s a dream come true,” said Waddell.

Vin De Dance came across from barrier 13, to race behind the pace maker Irish Flame (who was paying $107 to win) and then the fight home for victory had the crowd at the Ellerslie race course on their feet cheering their favourites on.

“I knew he was tough and strong, it’s fantastic,” said Waddell.

As well as receiving praise, Forsman was dishing out praise for the part Waddell played.

“We just wanted him to have a clear run and Jason rode him a treat.”

MORTGAGE MATTERS

Refinancing eyeing world cup Your Mortgage showdown

By Gavin Lynch – Yes Mortgages

By Sophie Iremonger The largely Cambridge-based team of elite rowers set to represent New Zealand at this year’s World Cup and World Championship regattas was named last week at Karapiro following a five-day trial.

Mahé Drysdale and Robbie Manson were both named as competitors in the men’s single scull for the Lucerne world cup in July, the results of which will determine who races at the World Champs and ultimately the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.

“Obviously for me and Robbie the selection hasn’t happened yet, that’s still to come,” said Mahé, a fourtime Olympian and 30-time world cup competitor. “So for me now it’s just about going away and doing the work, and July 15th is ‘D day’.

“The next few months is very much about getting back into training, doing the hard work, obviously I’ve still got a lot of speed to find so it’s just get out and do the hard miles and then as we get closer to the world cups we try to come up a little bit more and find that top end speed.”

The full Rowing NZ Elite team is available at www.rowingnz.kiwi.

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.

BOARDING SCHOOLS

Easing the transition to boarding school

By Claire Castle

St Peter’s Director of Boarding, Brenton Joubert, has seen plenty of young people come through the school over his 21 years there, and is now seeing the children of those students coming through.

While homesickness can be an issue for some children, Brenton said it is not as common as people might expect.

“Most kids seem to settle in but if there are kids that are homesick, that’s also natural.” Sometimes not settling in to boarding school can be the result of underlying factors that need to be addressed, rather than a straightforward case of homesickness, he explained.

One reason students may not be experiencing homesickness could be that the nature of boarding schools in general has changed, with no more initiations of junior students by seniors, he explained. “The whole community is more focussed on how to integrate new students into the school.”

Activities and keeping busy help new students settle into school life, and Brenton said that house staff are

always on the lookout for students who are attempting to withdraw into themselves. “We try to keep them busy and involved.”

Once the decision to send a child to boarding school has been made, parents can begin sowing the seeds for successful transition from home to boarding life. Having conversations before your child goes to boarding school can help them to settle in, and it’s important that parents are realistic about the experience, Brenton said. “Talk to your kids about the possibility of being homesick. Don’t “oversell” it by saying ‘it’s just like camp every day’.”

Striking a balance between being enthusiastic about the new endeavour and also being realistic that it might be challenging is the way to go, he added.

Also, setting in place strategies with your children in case of homesickness beforehand will help, as will working with them about their social skills including how to go about making new friends.

Brenton also advised parents to be supportive and understanding but avoid ‘helicopter parenting’

– hovering over children and monitoring their every move.

Creating a guideline about the amount of family contact can be helpful, as ringing home every five minutes is unlikely to help a new student settle in.

New technology has made this difficult, with an array of instant messaging now possible, but Brenton said parents need to be directive in the amount of contact for the sake of the student’s wellbeing.

That needs to come from the parents, and Brenton acknowledged that sometimes it is mum and dad rather than the children who are struggling to cope with the new living arrangements, which can make it hard for the new boarder to get on with their schooling. “Make sure it’s about the kids, not how you’re going to manage,” was his advice for parents.

And you don’t have to be available 24/7 – unless it’s an emergency it’s OK not to respond to every piece of communication you receive from your child. “I need to emphasise the real importance of (parents) not feeling like they have to respond to everything,” he stressed.

For children who don’t settle into boarding, Brenton said a visit to a school counsellor might be in order as often there are underlying reasons that may need to be addressed.

In any event, it sounds as though this happens much less frequently than people might expect.

How do you choose a boarding school?

By Claire Castle

SONNINGHILL HOSTEL OPEN DAY Friday 9th March 10.30am

Prospective boarders and Parents/Caregivers are invited to meet at the Hamilton Girls’ High School Atrium Ward Street, Gate 4, to meet the Principal and have a tour of the school, followed by refreshments and a tour of Sonninghill Hostel.

OUR VISION: Each young woman aspires to achieve her personal best.

Hamilton Girls’ High School embraces the challenges of the 21st century to support our girls to become thoughtful, confident and resilient young women.

Hamilton Girls’ High School Ward Street, PO BOX 1267, Hamilton 3204 Phone: 07 839 1304 Fax: 07 834 1394 www.hghs.school.nz administration@hghs.school.nz

For more information, please contact: Director of Boarding Sonninghill Hostel PO Box 512 Waikato Mail Centre Hamilton 3240

Telephone: (07) 839 0074

Email: director@sonninghill.school.nz

With plenty of options out there for boarding schools, how do you choose the one that’s right for your child and your family?

There will be practical considerations of course, including how far away the boarding school is from your home, whether the school is strong in the subjects your child is gravitating towards and what extra-curricular activities they may offer.

Some schools offer sporting academies in particular sports that your child might be interested in pursuing, while others have a strong emphasis on performing arts.

Also consider if your child has any special learning requirements, and whether or not they can be met at the school. Do you want your child to go to a single-sex or a co-ed school? There are pros and cons to each option, have you thought about those in relation to your own child?

And have a look at the school’s Education Review Office (ERO) report, which will highlight what the school is doing well at as well as any areas for improvement there might be.

Also important to consider is the

feeling you and your family gets when you visit the school. Do you feel welcome there? Did you feel as though staff wanted to show you around and talk with you about the school, or were you left to your own devices? Are the teaching staff keen and happy in their workplace, or do you feel as though they are just putting in the minimum effort required? Do you know other people whose children are currently at the school, and if so, are they happy with the way it’s going?

Don’t be afraid to ask questions, and make sure you visit the school more than once with your child to ensure you get the right fit. Because the right fit will be better for everyone.

Flavours

22 | CAMBRIDGE NEWS

Over the years pickles, relishes and chutneys have morphed into a wide variety of moreish delights.

Originally pickles were whole or coarsely chopped vegetables — and sometimes fruit — preserved in vinegar with the addition of spices, herbs and a little sugar. Relishes evolved from pickles — the fruits or vegetables are more finely chopped and more sugar is added.

Chutneys are usually more pulpy and sweeter still.

FRIDAY, MARCH 9, 2018

with Jan Bilton

Get Pickled

Use stainless steel pans for cooking to prevent the preserves from darkening or being tainted by the reaction of the vinegar to various other metals. Use spotlessly clean equipment and jars.

Many vegetables such as gherkins and small onions, need to be salted first to draw out the excess moisture. Too much water can cause the pickle to ferment.

Vinegar and sugar are the prime preservatives in pickles, relishes and

chutneys and normally there is enough to keep the preserves from fermenting. However, if you want to reduce the amount of sugar then it is a good idea to simmer the sealed jars in a waterbath for 15 minutes. Fill the jars with the hot mixture, seal and place them on a wire rack in the base of a large saucepan and add enough hot water to cover the lids by about three centimetres. Simmer for 15 minutes.

Then remove the jars and cool.

BEAUTIFUL BEETROOT PICKLE The fennel seeds add pizzazz to this pickle. With all pickles, after filling the jars, insert a knife between the jar and the preserve to allow any air bubbles to rise to the top.

1kg beetroot 1 medium/large red onion, diced 1 teaspoon each: fennel seeds, mustard seeds 2 cups malt vinegar 1/2 teaspoon each: mixed spiced, salt, ground black pepper 1 1/4 cups caster sugar 1 red chilli, seeded and diced Peel and grate the beetroot. (This can be done using the grater attachment for your food processor.) Place in a large saucepan.

Add the onion.

Dry roast the fennel and mustard seeds in a frying pan on low heat, until fragrant.

Place the seeds and all the remaining ingredients in a food processor and whizz until well blended.

Add to the beetroot. Bring to the boil then reduce the heat to low. Simmer for about 1 hour or until almost all the liquid has evaporated.

Pour into hot sterilised jars and seal. Makes 4 cups.

CORN RELISH You need about 6 large corn cobs to get 4 cups of corn kernels. Stand the cobs on end and, using a sharp knife, run it down the back of the kernels to separate them from the cob.

1 each: large cucumber, red capsicum 1 large brown onion, diced 4 cups corn kernels 2 medium tomatoes, seeded and diced 1 1/4 cups sugar 1 tablespoon salt 1 1/2 cups cider vinegar 1/2 teaspoon each: ground cumin, ground turmeric 2 teaspoon yellow mustard seeds Peel, seed and dice the cucumber. Seed and dice the capsicum Place all the ingredients into a large saucepan. Bring to the boil then reduce to a simmer. Cover loosely and cook for 25 minutes.

Spoon the relish into sterilised jars and seal. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 months.

If you wish to keep the relish for longer place in a waterbath and process for 15 minutes. Makes about 5 cups.

INDIAN TOMATO OIL PICKLE Makes a great side for meats and a topping for rice. Use less chilli for a milder version.

1 tablespoon black mustard seeds 3/4 cup malt vinegar 1/4 cup peeled and chopped root ginger 6 each: garlic cloves, long green chillies 1 kg tomatoes 1/2 cup canola oil 2 1/2 teaspoons ground turmeric 2 tablespoons ground cumin 2 teaspoons each: salt, ground chilli, 1/2 cup sugar Soak the mustard seeds in the vinegar overnight. Place in a blender and whizz until almost smooth. Add the ginger and garlic and puré.

Halve the chillies, remove the seeds and chop. Peel and chop the tomatoes.

Heat the oil in a large heavy saucepan on medium. Add the turmeric, cumin and chilli powder. Stir well. Add the tomatoes, chillies, vinegar mixture, salt and sugar. Simmer until thick and the oil starts to float to the top, about 30 minutes.

Pour into hot sterilised jars and seal when cold. Leave for at least a week before using. Makes about 3 1/2 cups.

When home intruders brutally attack his wife and young daughter, Kersey becomes obsessed with delivering vigilante justice to the perpetrators. As the anonymous slayings grab the media's attention, the public begins to wonder if the deadly avenger is a guardian angel or the Grim Reaper. Fury and fate collide in this intense action-thriller, a remake of the 1974 film of the same name starring Charles Bronson, which was followed by four sequels, based on Brian Garfield's 1972 novel.

The incredible true story of Donald Crowhurst, an amateur sailor who competed in the 1968 Sunday Times Golden Globe Race in the hope of becoming the first person in history to single-handedly circumnavigate the globe without stopping.

With an unfinished boat and his business and house on the line, Donald leaves his wife, Clare, and their children behind, hesitantly embarking on an adventure on his boat the Teignmouth Electron. The story of Crowhurst's dangerous solo voyage and the struggles he confronted on the epic journey while his family awaited his return is one of the most enduring mysteries of recent times.

Barefoot water skiier William Leigh is ready and able to compete in the national champs later this month, having already qualified for the world champs in August.

Best foot forward

By Sophie Iremonger One Cambridge local will be a top contender at the National Barefoot Water Ski Championships when the competition comes to the far end of Karapiro over Easter weekend, hosted by the Piarere Water Ski Club.

William Leigh will be a tough one to beat having won the open men’s division of the Waikato regionals last month, held at the same venue.

Leigh lives right next to the Piarere waters where the competition is taking place, training there twice daily.

“It’s cool to be out there every day, and the rush of being on the water,” said Leigh, who gets up to 70kmph skiing on nothing but his bare feet.

During the Waikato Barefoot Water Ski Champs over February 10 and 11, the Year 13 St Peter’s student, competing in the open men’s division, placed fourth in trick skiing, second in slalom, and first overall, unable to do the jump because of choppy water. He scored 5,750 points for trick skiing, a hundred points of the NZ junior record, and completed 15.4 crossings in the slalom, a personal best.

“I was really pleased, especially with my first round of tricks, but also pleased with my slalom because the water wasn’t that good,” said Leigh, who at 17 years old will compete in both the junior boys’ and open men’s divisions at Nationals.

It means two rounds each for

the trick, slalom and jump in the junior boys’ division, and then three more rounds of each discipline for the open men, totalling 15 rounds of skiing throughout the national competition over Easter.

“I think I’m the only one doing it (entering both divisions),” said Leigh, “so I’ll certainly be conserving my energy so that I can ski on both of them.”

Having his home right there will be a big help for recharging in between rounds, as well as knowing the area like the back of his hand.

Between now and then, William will be “training hard” consistently and keeping in good shape. “Getting to ski the actual nationals course every morning is certainly an advantage,” he laughed.
