Teachers say ‘enough’

Primary teachers and principals turned out in force on Wednesday, gathering at Victoria Square and then protesting at different points around town from 11am – 1pm.

By Claire Castle

Cambridge primary and middle school teachers and principals took to the streets on Wednesday, part of a nationwide day of industrial action – striking for the first time in 24 years, and just the third time in the primary union’s 135-year history.

After rallying at Victoria Park at

11am, more than 150 teachers mobilised to different points around town to minimise disruption to the community, keen to engage with the public and spread awareness of the issues behind the strike. The action comes as a response to what principal and teacher members of the New Zealand Education Institute: Te Riu Roa (NZEI) consider to be an inadequate pay offer

from the Ministry of Education in their latest pay negotiations. Principals and teachers have asked for more time to teach and lead, more support for children with additional learning needs and a ‘pay jolt’ to stem the growing teacher shortage. Instead, the MoE has offered the majority of teachers (about 86 per cent) a pay rise from 2.2 – 2.6 per cent a year for three years, and just 12

President of the Cambridge NZEI and protest organiser, Leamington School teacher Sarah Kirk said there were around 150 local teachers at the demonstration, with more turning up from surrounding areas including Matamata and Newstead.

Cambridge newsroom update

New to Cambridge?

Child starting school?

Looking for a change of environment for your child?

Teachers went on strike on Wednesday and fair enough, too. I hope the day of industrial action will prompt some movement on their pay and conditions, because clearly things can’t carry on like this if we are to have a viable teaching workforce that delivers the best education for our kids.

Also this week, we have news of Abby Hartley, the Cambridge Reds supporter who is seriously ill in Bali. It would be anyone’s worst nightmare and her condition is very serious, but what has compounded things is her insurance company’s refusal to pay for her treatment because they reckon the twisted bowel that caused it all was a pre-existing condition. From what I understand, she didn’t know she had it, and if that’s the case it beggars belief that the insurance company would take this stance and decline her claim that is $75,000 and rising. Makes you wonder why you’d have insurance in the first place.

News is also out this week that the Government is planning to phase out single-use plastic bags. While this is undoubtedly

good for the environment, if you look at the average shopping trolley it’s awash with single-use plastic that is far more “single-use” than plastic shopping bags.

It’s all very well taking reusable produce and shopping bags along, and I think we absolutely should, but we mustn’t let that fool us into thinking that the problem is being Claire Castle handled, because it isn’t.

So many things are shrink-wrapped at the supermarket, encased in plastic that isn’t even good for a second use lining your bin or picking up dog poo. I can’t help feeling that the plastic bags are “low-hanging fruit”, and that we urgently need a total overhaul of how we are packaging and consuming all products – not just food. Anything else is just tinkering around the edges, I reckon.

A raft of injuries to the senior rugby players along with increasing work and family commitments has seen the cancellation of this year’s Battle of the Bridge, the annual grudge match between Leamington and Hautapu that traditionally draws big crowds.

The event, which started in 2011 and included rugby, netball and a tug of war, was scheduled for tomorrow, but co-organiser Mark Nogaj said there were just not enough rugby players able to take the field this time.

Already pushing it to make up a team, the pre-game against Hamilton team Suburbs proved to be the last straw for the senior rugby players, with a number injured and unable to compete further. The casualties included Mark, who has done his rotator cuff and will require an operation.

All of this is proof that while the mind may be willing, perhaps the body can’t always live up to expectations.

In any event, this will not be the last Cambridge will see of the Battle of the Bridge, with Mark and other organisers looking to reinvent the fixture for next year. “We are keen to keep the event going, and this (the cancellation) will enable us to change the event to a full-day family event and possibly a function at night, to raise money for charities in Cambridge,” an upbeat Mark explained.

Ideally the event will have something for people of all ages and abilities, and

might even include some masters’ rugby, albeit in a shorter format, he added.

A public meeting will be called before Christmas to gather ideas for next year, which will be followed by another meeting next year to look at the way forward. “Next year’s event

Reds rally behind local fan

By Claire Castle

The Cambridge Football Club has rallied behind supporter Abby Hartley, who is lying seriously ill in a Bali hospital, with senior players competing in the Northern League sporting red armbands at their matches at the weekend. Paul Richardson, head coach of the Reds, said: “We wanted to wear dark red armbands to show our support for Abby and let her family know we’re thinking of them.”

Abby is the mother of Toby Hartley (16), who plays in the Reds’ reserve team, and she is an avid supporter of the club. On the first day of a holiday in Bali with her husband Richard at the start of the month, Abby fell ill and was subsequently hospitalised with a twisted bowel, which had caused a section of her bowel to die. Things went from bad to worse, and Abby went into a condition called acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and was placed into an induced coma. She was then suffering from a severe infection and high fever, with x-rays

showing fluid in her lungs and one collapsed lung.

To compound the stress, the insurance company Abby has her travel insurance with have declined coverage of her treatment on the grounds that the twisted bowel was a pre-existing condition. With the cost of her treatment exceeding the $75,000 mark so far, the family has set up a Givealittle page for support, which at the time of going to print had raised in excess of that to help with the mounting medical costs.

The Chief executive of the Insurance Council of New Zealand, Tim Grafton, said that if a customer and insurance company cannot come to an agreement about a decision, the insurer will issue the customer with a letter of deadlock that can be taken to the external disputes resolution scheme (EDRS) the insurer is registered with.

“It’s free to take a complaint to an EDRS and any judgment issued is binding on an insurer,” he concluded.

Anyone wishing to help the family with Abby’s

medical bills can visit www.givealittle.co.nz and search ‘Help Abby Fight’ to make a donation.

Local TEDx dream team

By Claire Castle

Cambridge is punching above its weight at next month’s TEDxRuakura talk in Hamilton, with locals making up 30 per cent of the speakers.

Thomas Nabbs, Jacqui Barrett and Franny McInnes will be taking to the stage at the prestigious event along with seven other speakers, part of a global series of inspirational talks that have become a worldwide online hit.

Each will be speaking for around 15 minutes, “but we can’t really talk about what we’re talking about”, laughed Jacqui. Given the line-up, however, it’s bound to be inspiring.

Cambridge-raised Thomas is the founder of The Waterboy, a charity that aims to remove barriers to participation in sport, while Franny’s business, Breastmates, is the quintessential Kiwi “started in a garage” story. For her part, Jacqui is an author who works with those with limiting self-beliefs, teaching them how to unblock what doesn’t serve them, becoming “manifesting machines” and living a happy life.

The trio found out at the start of March they would be part of the line-up for the September 2 event at Waikato University, and the hard work has been ongoing since then.

Nominated through Facebook or spotted by event organisers, there were around 50 applications, narrowed down to a shortlist by three speech coaches who would be working with the final speakers. From there, the shortlisted candidates had to submit a one-minute video “pitch” and the final line up was decided.

The speakers then set to work with the coaches, spending countless hours working on their presentations. The event’s licence holder, Quentin Weber, said that there is much more to delivering a TED talk than people may realise. “It’s not just a talk, it’s a presentation, it’s a performance,” he explained. “From their presentation right down to their voice… we go through all of that sort of stuff so they’re so well-prepared they don’t have to think about the content of their talk, they just perform it,” Quentin said.

“People are still emailing one month out from the event, asking to come and talk…but these guys have been going for the past six months,” he added.

Franny, Thomas and Jacqui all said they have gained a tremendous amount from their participation.

Franny said it has made her more aware of future opportunities and angles she can develop, “and I realise that I do have the ability and confidence to stand

(Left to right) Franny McInnes, Thomas Nabbs and Jacqui Barrett are speaking at next month’s TedxRuakura talk. up on stage and hold people’s attention”.

Jacqui said her TEDx journey has taken her from perfecting the art of speaking in public to “embracing feedback and being vulnerable for people commenting, allowing it to happen and embracing that”. As for Thomas, he said that he has learned how long it takes for him to memorise things, his presentation style and the way he writes. “There’s so much ‘cannon fodder’ in there…I write far too many words,” he laughed.

And all agreed that being around the other speakers and hearing their stories has been “mind blowing”.

TED is a non-profit organisation which started out as a conference in 1984, and the name stands for Technology, Entertainment and Design. These days it covers almost all topics, from science to global issues, in more than 100 languages. TEDx events are independently run, with local organisers required to get a licence to use the name.

Teachers say ‘enough’

Continued from page 1 The strike was about much more than just the pay rise teachers are seeking, “it’s also about the quality of education for the kids”, she said. “A lot of the kids have special learning needs and not getting support for them takes away from their learning and takes away time from the other kids,” she explained.

Cambridge Primary School principal Mike Pettit told the crowd: “We know the new Government have been left a challenge. Ten years

of neglect of education.

We hear them when they say this cannot be fixed overnight. What we need them to know is that while we understand their predicament – teachers and children cannot wait,” he said.

Sarah then wrapped up the gathering with a ‘straw poll’. Those present were asked to indicate their support for either a geographically-based rolling one-day strike over the course of a week, or a two-day national strike. The outcome was

Demonstration organiser Sarah Kirk asked the crowd to vote on the teachers’ next industrial action.

resounding support for a two-day national strike, proof that teachers are serious about fixing what they say is a ‘crisis’ in education. And judging by the amount of public support on the street and tooting motorists, the community appears to be behind them.

Cambridge Primary School principal Mike Pettit told the assembled teachers that public opinion research has shown overwhelming support for the teachers’ cause.

Letter to the editor Editor, At the present time we use the one supermarket plastic bag we collect each week to put out our newspapers for recycling the rest of the shopping is put in reusable bags we have had for over 15 years. It is important at this time of year to protect the paper recyclables as they can be blown away in high winds or get really soggy and horrible to handle. With the imminent demise of these plastic bags, I wonder if the council has thought about this situation for the operatives.

When we lived in England, over 20 years ago, our local council issued us with two recycling crates - one for paper goods and the other for the rest of the recyclables. That council now uses one wheelie bin for all recycling, as do most other councils over there, and Auckland is now doing the same.

What is the future in Waipa? Are we going to bury our heads and recyclables in the sand?

Quickfire News Community house manager resigns Cambridge Community House will be on the hunt for a new manager, after the sudden resignation and departure of former manager Joanne Turner last week.

Joanne, who had been in the job since May last year, said she will always have fond memories of her first year at the community house under the former chair, David Day, but now it was time to move on. “I wish the community house all the best for the future and look forward to seeing some of the initiatives I was working on, such as the new building project, come to fruition,” Joanne said.

The Cambridge Community House trust board declined to comment.

Pictured: Joanne Turner resigned from her position as manager of the Cambridge Community House, effective immediately.

Bye bye, plastic bags Plastic bags are on the way out, with the government announcing a proposal that would see single-use plastic shopping bags phased out over the next 12 months. The ban would see an end to the hundreds and millions of bags Kiwis use every year, many of which end up in landfills or polluting the marine environment. This move is the latest move against the ubiquitous bags, which were invented in the 1960s. Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern and Associate Environment Minister Eugenie Sage made the announcement last Friday, with the Prime Minister saying the move was designed to safeguard New Zealand’s clean, green reputation and better look after the environment.

New Zealanders can visit the Ministry for the Environment’s website – www.mfe.govt.nz – to have their say on the proposed mandatory phasing out of the bags. People have until Friday, September 14 to have their say on issues such as the date for completion of the phase-out, which bags should be included, possible exemptions for certain retailers, and how best to help people with the transition.

Festival could become annual event

By Viv Posselt

Cambridge’s green-fingered residents are in for a treat come November with the first in what is hoped will become an annual Garden Festival.

The inaugural November 18 event is a new Cambridge Rotary fundraising project. Tickets have just gone on sale, each featuring a map of 10 local properties selected for inclusion – a delightful range of large and small, classic and quirky gardens to enjoy.

Behind the initiative is Cambridge Rotary Club member, Carey Church. The company she runs with husband Peter Church, Moneyworks, is one of the festival’s two premier sponsors – the other is Amber Garden Centre.

Carey said the idea stemmed from a call from within Rotary for members to come up with fresh ideas for fundraising activities; the garden festival was one of them.

“Garden tourism is one of the most popular forms of tourism around today,” she said. “In the US alone, more people now go on garden tours than go to Las Vegas.”

Proceeds from the November festival ticket sales will go to three local charities – Cambridge Community House, Victim Support and the Rotary Club of Cambridge.

Other sponsors have come on board to support additional costs, such as the design and printing of the tickets and maps, and any

We apologise for the delay and inconvenience.

promotion of the event.

Aside from the two premier sponsors, there are three silver sponsors (Powerhouse Realty, John Macdonald Builders and Hill Laboratories); three bronze sponsors (Cambridge Jewellers, Mighty River Domain and Gourmet Direct/Suburban Kitchen/Podium Café); and four others (Kaz Design, Rocketspark, Waipa District Council and Bruce Hancock Photography).

“Jan Mathers and Helen Haycock from the Cambridge Garden Club have done a wonderful job in picking a range of gardens for viewing, and early summer will be the perfect time for that.

There is an old English country garden, a modern garden, one that

reflects the 1960s, and a couple of bigger gardens in the mix. Cottage gardens, farm gardens … they are all very different.”

Carey said the tickets will enable visitors to ramble between all 10 gardens during the course of Sunday, November 18.

A limited number of extra tickets are offering the ‘optional extra’ of a behind-the-scenes tour of Kaipakibased Blewdens Lilies, one of New Zealand’s largest producers of lilies. Tours at Blewdens are at set times throughout the day.

Tickets are available from Amber Nurseries, Cambridge Jewellers and from the website (www.cgf.nz). Tickets including the tour of Blewdens Lilies are available only via the website.

Putting the finishing touches to planning around November’s inaugural Garden Festival are Shirley Haycock, left, and Carey Church.

Dr Libby has lowdown on hormones and ageing

Dr Libby Weaver is coming to Hamilton next week, and Cambridge News has two double passes to give away. Ahead of her visit, Claire Castle asked Dr Libby a few questions about life, aging and hormones.

How do you think that mothers in particular can inspire a new generation of girls with an innate belief in their inner beauty and abilities, bearing in mind that this is a concept that many older women struggle with?

I do believe that it’s important for all of us to work on our own selfimage and worth in order to model for younger generations that there is another way, and this is why I’m so passionate about helping women of all ages to get back in touch with how precious they truly are—no matter what. However, I’m full of hope that we can have a positive impact and help our young girls develop a strong sense of self-belief by choosing how we compliment

and validate them. Let’s tell them that we trust in them to make excellent decisions, that we believe in them to become whatever they set their hearts to. Let’s tell them they are beautiful but also focus on all the other qualities that we see in them—their kindness, their leadership, their strength.

How can we prevent accelerated ageing and is it possible to turn back the clock once this has commenced?

Ageing is supposed to happen, but we can most definitely prevent it from occurring at an accelerated rate. The best way to do this is to consistently nourish your skin from the inside out – this means eating loads of colourful plant foods

Dr Libby Weaver advises people to nourish their skin from the inside out, by eating plenty of colourful plant food everyday to get the nutrients they need.

every day to provide the vitamins, minerals and antioxidants that prevent skin cell damage and help to stimulate collagen production.

The outermost layer of our skin is constantly being replaced and so although this renewal process does take longer as we get older, it is possible to improve the health, and therefore the appearance, of our skin.

Given that everyone is different, are there a couple of things that we should be starting to do if we’re not already and stopping if we are to help balance our hormones as we get older?

The relentless output of stress hormones is a common thread in so many of the imbalances I see with various other hormones.

This is especially pertinent for women leading into menopause, where ovarian production of sex hormones shuts down and we need to rely much more on sex hormone production from our adrenals – the same glands that produce (and prioritise) our stress hormones. To reduce stress, sometimes it can be necessary to change our perception of pressure and urgency and of what stress means to us. This is often easier said than done but doing this emotional work truly can be life-changing. Diaphragmatic breathing is another strategy that is highly effective for reducing stress hormone production. I can’t encourage a daily breath-focused practice enough – for both men and women.

Dr Libby will be speaking about ageing and hormones in Hamilton on Wednesday, August 22 for her, The Hormone Factor tour, 7pm – 9pm Claudelands Conference & Exhibition Centre. Tickets are $39.95 from www. drlibby.com.

Expressway shaping up Operation Foster Socks a hit Cambridge people travelling to Hamilton can’t miss all the works happening around the Hamilton section of the Waikato Expressway at Tamahere.

This is where Hamilton and the completed Cambridge sections join at the Southern Interchange.

In November this year, traffic will be switched from the current Tamahere route to create room for expressway construction.

Two new lanes will extend from the SH21-Airport Road Interchange, under the East West Link Bridge, to reconnect with the existing highway near the ‘Hamilton’ billboard at the top of the gully.

Sections of the new route at Tamahere are beginning to look more like an

expressway. The project teams are laying aggregate and mixing it with cement to form the road pavement and installing concrete kerbing.

Construction has begun at Birchwood Lane where the new East West Link Road will provide connections to and from the city and the Cherry Ln/Bollard Rd community.

Major ground improvement works has finished in the Mangaone and Mangaharakeke gullies between SH1Cambridge Rd and Matangi Rd, but driven piling continues for the two gully bridges.

Kids coming into care across the Waikato will have nice new socks to keep their feet warm, thanks to the generosity customers of Mr Walter Barbershop in Leamington.

Mr Walter’s owner Debra Jenkins ran the collection drive for new socks – dubbed Operation Foster Socks – over a couple of months, far exceeding the initial target of 200 pairs of socks for Kids in Need Waikato. Instead, they managed to collect 350 pairs of socks from far and wide, including some sent

from America after barber Wesley Ramsay put a post on Instagram.

Linda Roil, the woman behind Kids in Need Waikato, was delighted with the donation, saying that the organisation has been gathering momentum since she started it last year.

“Kids in Need is a community thing, and it just blows me away,” she said. “I look at Cambridge as the village looking after the children.”

Debra, who got the idea from the USA, where sock drives are held for the homeless, said she was thrilled with the response

from her customers. “It was an easy thing for men to do,” she explained, adding that men would often come in for a haircut and then nip out to buy socks after they had seen the posters up in the barbershop. Or kids would dash in with socks while mum waited in the car outside, she added.

After the success of Operation Foster Socks, the next thing Debra has on the cards to help is an ‘Undie 500’, collecting new underpants for kids in need.

Something the community is bound to get behind.

Words of wisdom from Sir Graham Henry

By Sophie Iremonger

Staff and students at St Peter’s School were recently treated to a visit from one of New Zealand’s most special sports figures – Sir Graham Henry. The former All Blacks coach spoke to a crowd of well over a hundred people, glued to his wise words and giggling at his excellently dry sense of humour.

The talk came as part of the Auckland Mitre 10 Cup team’s visit to the school, which spent some time training there last week as part of the build-up to competition. Henry, one of the coaches, was asked to give a presentation to the school’s sports academy students, and they certainly made the most of the opportunity – picking his brain for the many secrets of success in high performance sport, and getting a few cool stories in the process.

Instead of giving a prepared speech, Sir Graham simply fielded a range of wellthought out questions from the crowd, from what makes top sportspeople so great, to how to deal with loss.

“It’s not easy,” he said of losing big sports games, “but I think you learn more from adversity, more from the times

which are difficult, than you do from the times when you win.”

Henry detailed some of his past achievements, from being headmaster at Kelston Boys’ High School in the 1990s to coaching at Auckland Grammar in the late 70s – where he originally set the goal of eventually coaching the All Blacks. “… and in 2004 I became the All Blacks coach, so it only took me 34 years!” he said with a grin. “Some things take a long time, but if you keep persevering you get there, hopefully.”

Among the first questions he took, one student asked him what made Richie McCaw such a great All Black. “I can’t speak highly enough of him,” he said. “If you’ve got the desire, passion, that’s a hell of a good start, and that’s all he had, and everything he built from there… he was hugely driven.

“You wouldn’t call McCaw a naturally gifted sportsman, but he’s a man with a massive backbone and a huge ticker. He just worked really hard at being the best he could be. That’s all he did, he just wanted to be better tomorrow than he was today.”

“The big thing is they are always striving to get better,” he said similarly, when asked

what makes the All Blacks boundaries, and never have an do. And if you do that you get such a great team. “There’s a excuse … Just be committed into the habit of that pursuit of ruthless pursuit of excellence to doing what you’re meant to excellence.” by every person on our team.

So if there’s one value they have, is understanding you’re not the finished product, you can always get better.

“Once you think you’re there, well you might as well give up.

There’s always a next step.

“It doesn’t matter what sport it is, I think the big thing is constant desire to improve. …

The big attributes are; a great mentality, a great mindset, and ‘how can I get better’.”

Henry added that the most important thing of all, whether pursuing excellence in sport or any subject, is passion. “One of the most important things is that you love it, you’re passionate about it … and then you put the skills in, and develop the body to be the world champion.”

Inspired by his excellent attitude, one person asked, ‘how can students build a strong mindset at a young age?’, and the answer was simple.

“A strong mindset is something that happens all the time,” he said. “I think it’s about going out and doing what you’re meant to do each Sir Graham Henry spoke to a crowd of sports students at St Peter’s day, keep on pushing the School last week.

EVs nearly ready for competition

By Sophie Iremonger

Materials technology students at Cambridge High School are gearing up for what some consider to be the pinnacle event of their material technology learning, putting their skills to the test in making and racing an electric vehicle in the 2018 EVolocity Regional Final.

Ryan Totman on the welder.

The event on September 29, held at the go-kart track on Airport Rd, will see over 100 students from 16 schools around the Waikato compete across 10 different phases, being tested for a number of variables including speed, manoeuvrability, energy efficiency and safety, and of course the best “look”.

Earlier this year student

teams taking part in the competition were each given an electric motor, left to themselves – with teacher supervision and support – to turn it into a fully functioning electric vehicle.

The competition includes two categories across the ten challenges, one for bike designs and one for carts. Of the five teams entering the competition at Cambridge High, three teams have chosen bike designs and two have opted for the more challenging cart option.

The three-man team of Sam Hogan, Sam Bain and Aaron Bruce said they chose a bike design for the simpler make and easier steering, which will help them in the Street Circuit phase where they have to make a few tight turns.

“There’s been a few hiccups but we’re getting there,” said Aaron Bruce.

“It’s really good learning from experience,” Sam Hogan added, “you learn things you may not be taught.

James Ross, partnered with Matt Berry, said they expected their bike would do well in the friction test. “We’re hoping,” he said.

All teams said they were looking forward to getting their James Ross (right) and Matt Berry show off their work.

Maths Week at Goodwood School

Goodwood School celebrated all things maths during their school Maths Week last week.

Throughout the week Goodwood students completed challenges of the day, worked together with whānau to solve a family challenge, and attended the World of Maths roadshow that visited the school. The World of Maths roadshow provided students with a range of hands on and ‘real world’ problem solving opportunities. Throughout the week explorers were challenged to recognise the importance and value of maths that is around them in their daily lives.

From left, Sam Hogan, Aaron Bruce and Sam Bain hard at work. projects completed and out on the track.

“I think it’s coming along, hopefully we’ll be done by race day,” said Rhys Brunton, who has the responsibility of racing his team’s bike in every phase of the competition due to partners Josh Hogan and Chris Stanson being unable to make it on race day. “I don’t actually mind to be honest,” he said, looking forward to racing the bike.

Despite not being able to see their bike perform on the day, Chris said working on the project had been an interesting experience.

“It’s really cool to see it go from being a design on paper to a fully-built prototype,” he said. “You don’t get to the finished product like that in other subjects.”

“I’m looking forward to seeing everyone else’s projects, and racing,”

said Davis Catchpole, who is making a three-wheel cart with Okoko Anaing and Liam Barnes.

“We’re got a really good group this year,” said the students’ materials technology teacher Bruce Siriett. “They were a little bit slow starting but (now) they’re making really good progress … They’ve done really well to keep on track.”

Bruce said he wanted to encourage members of the public to go along and watch the regional final on September 29, being held at Kartsport Hamilton in Tamahere from around 10am. Entry is free, and there will be test rides available in electric vehicles from Tesla, BMW and others, as well as a Waikato Engineering Careers Association careers stand and hot food trucks.

Community Careers Expo a hit

By Sophie Iremonger

Students, teachers, parents and people from all walks of life strolled around the Cambridge Community Careers Expo held at the local raceway last week, checking out a huge range of career options and information from over 40 different exhibitors. A combined effort by both Cambridge High School and St Peter’s School, organisers said many dozens, if not hundreds of people came through the doors during the six-hour event held Wednesday afternoon, which aimed to show some of the many different career pathways available and showcase the education and

training organisations that can help.

“It’s great that both the schools have come together,” said Cambridge local Sharonn Pirie from Futures NZ, adding that the turnout was just fantastic. “I’ve been able to help young people who really have no idea what they want to do. It’s really rewarding to help them find their path.”

Sergeant Lloyd Rakaupai from Defence Careers NZ, representing the New Zealand navy, army, air force and reserves, said the event was a great opportunity to explain what they were all about. “We’re here to shine a light on potential careers in the military,” he said. “There’s been quite a lot of interest which is

Kids kept warm thanks to donated PJs Donated pyjamas will help keep local kids warm this winter thanks to the efforts of staff and patients at Leamington Dental.

The Lumino dental practice joined the Foster Hope Pyjama Drive and collected over 50 pyjamas and other items for the cause.

The annual event organised by Foster Hope provides donated pyjamas to foster children, many of whom have never had a brand-new pair of pyjamas before.

Sharnah Phillips who works out of Lumino’s Support Office in Auckland and started the Pyjama Drive for the company, said she never expected to see so many items donated. “After being told about the Foster Hope PJ Drive, I looked into the cause and thought it would be great to get the Support Office involved,” she said.

Carole Wright, Practice Manger at Lamington Dental took on the challenge and together with staff and patients were able to make a generous donation to Foster Hope.

This year Foster Hope collected more than 8,000 pairs of pyjamas.

great.”

“I’m actually planning on going to uni in Australia, this is my parents’ last-ditch attempt to keep me in the country!” said Blake Lawton, a Cambridge High School student. “But it’s actually been quite interesting, it’s been very helpful with figuring out what you need to do for your chosen pathway.”

“You get a good feel for all the different universities,” added Chris Denton.

Cambridge High School had held a careers expo every year for many years, but this year was the first time that both the local high schools have joined forces to create a careers event for all members of the community, and by the sounds of it, it was a resounding success.

Sergeant Lloyd Rakaupai from Defence Careers NZ speaks to a few interested locals.

Silver success at 2018 Waikato area pairs

By Eunice Eccles, Cambridge Bridge Club Cambridge members were amongst those who took prizes at the sixth and final WAPS Bridge tournament in Morrinsville for this year. Mike Neels from Cambridge and Ella Gray of Hamilton won Sunday’s tournament which gave them enough to come second, but not quite enough to win the overall trophy which was won by Lesley Quilty of Matamata and Sonia Crawford of Morrinsville.

Other winners on the day were the best non-open pair, Calum MacLean of Cambridge, playing for the first time with Wendy Mortimer from Hamilton – a great start for them with practice for the Sixes next weekend. Kevin Whyte and Clare Coles of Cambridge just missed out on the prizes, coming fourth overall out of the 17 pairs who were eligible, following on from the six events that make up the Waikato Area Pairs.

Eight Hautapu players on Mitre 10 Cup team Waikato’s Mitre 10 Cup team will play its first game of the 11-week competition this weekend against Manawatu. Announced last week, the squad includes Hautapu brothers Luke and Mitch Jacobson who both made the team for their second year running.

Last year they beat the 23-year record as the first set of brothers to play in the same side for the province since the Coventry’s back in 1994.

This year they’ve helped make history yet again, with another set of brothers, Declan and Kylem O’Donnell, making it the first time in Waikato’s history that two sets of brothers have played on the

same regional rugby team.

The squad also includes Hautapu players Ayden Johnstone, Sekope Lopeti-Moli, Mike Mayhew, Sam Caird, Laghlan McWhannell and Jono Armstrong. Mike and Jono are returning to the province to add to their provincial caps, playing hooker and loose forward respectively.

Also among the 37-man squad are ten full-time Super Rugby players and two current All Blacks representatives, Damian McKenzie and Anton LienertBrown.

A large portion of the Waikato squad was selected from their strong

performances in the recently concluded Waikato Club Rugby competition. “The strong club competition this season has helped prepare the players for the upcoming campaign,” said Waikato head coach Jono Gibbes. “The player’s energy levels are high and we need to sustain this level in this high pressure

Meanwhile our cyclists reached Pipiroa at the Piako river mouth. The unusually named Bugger Cafe was the venue to lunch and chat before returning to Waitakaruru along the flat trail in light

rain and a tiring head wind. With bikes repacked we were off to the popular Miranda Hot Pools for a welcome swim, then with bodies rewarmed, rested and muscles relaxed it was time to head home after an interestingly different day.

Rugby players make TV but not victory St Peter’s School’s First XV featured on the Rugby Channel recently when they went up against Feilding High School in the semi-final of the Central North Island Championship.

The closeness of the game was perhaps best illustrated in the dying stages. Three times St Peter’s were held up over the Feilding line as they pushed relentlessly for victory, but unfortunately it was their opponents who claimed the win 15-12.

The first twenty minutes were quite even. Feilding landed the first blow after 15 minutes when halfback

Connor McEldowney dummied and darted over from close range following sustained forward pressure. St Peter’s opposite Cameron Roigard responded in identical fashion for the visitors five minutes later.

Layton Manuel might have been left to rue his four missed kicks, but a penalty he landed just before halftime nudged Feilding into a 10-7 lead.

It took 18 minutes for any points to be scored in the second-half, but then a left-foot step by Feilding centre Josiah Makaku saw him take the ball to the line with authority, his quick feet

opening a rare hole to boost the score to 15-7. Roigard made a second try with ten minutes remaining.

Stand-out St Peter’s players included Paula Mahe (St Peter’s second-five), Devoin Gregory (St Peter’s openside)

and Andrew Viane (St Peter’s Eight).

The Feilding team will travel to Hamilton this weekend to tussle with St Paul’s Collegiate, attempting to reverse their loss to Wesley College in the same fixture last year.

Head girl makes top team

By Sophie Iremonger

St Peter’s School’s head girl Georgie Edgecombe is on top of the world after being named on the New Zealand Secondary Schools netball team.

The Year 13 student will join the Kiwis in a test against their Australian and English counterparts in an international age-grade series in Canberra, October 1 - 5.

“I was pretty surprised,” Georgie said of finding out the news. “It was pretty unexpected because I injured myself at the tournament where they were really selecting it from… But I’m really excited.”

Georgie’s acceptance into the team came following a five-day camp in January, where selectors watched a group of about 60 players from around the country learn new skills from specialist coaches and regional netball team players, which were then applied across several games. “That was pretty cool,” said Georgie.

Selectors also looked at players during the National Age Group Championships in July.

“The athletes named in the New Zealand Secondary Schools team have stood out at a number of events and we’re looking forward to working with them to help them take that next step,” said the team’s coach Mary-Jane Araroa. “This is such an important agegroup for the development of netball in New Zealand and it’s exciting to help these players realise their potential.

“It is always a challenge to play Australian teams but we’re looking forward to that challenge with this exciting group of athletes.”

Georgie was just one of 23 players out of the 60 girls at the January camp to make the cut. Despite being “blown away” by the news, after the team was announced in the past fortnight, Georgie said she’s ready to prove her worth with the squad. “It’s pretty exciting, seeing your hard work pay off,” she said. “I’m just ready to get going and put everything I’ve got out there.”

The goal-keep and goal-defence position player has been involved in netball for years, taking up the sport at the minimum age in Year 3 at Rototuna Primary School. Since then she’s been part of the Hamilton City Representative teams for the past seven years.

“I started off just because I really enjoyed it with my friends,” she explained, “and I just love playing it.

“I’m a pretty competitive person, I like to win,” she smiled. “It’s pretty cool to match up against different players and see how you can go against them.

“It will be cool to see what other countries are like … to get experience playing at a national level against players who are at a really high level as well.”

The New Zealand team will meet up for a training camp during the last weekend of September before

departing across the ditch in early October.

Looking beyond the tournament, Georgie said she hopes to eventually make a regional team, the Waikato Magic netball team. “I’ve grown up watching them so it would be cool to play on the team,” she said, adding

that if all goes to plan she’d love to join the Silver Ferns.

But for now, stepping in the right direction towards that ultimate goal, Georgie said she’s rapt with making the national secondary school team.

“You kind of dream of it and then it comes round and it’s like, surreal.”

Tough battle in Bowers Cup

Cambridge’s Bowers Cup team competing in the regional under-45kg rugby tournament had a few tough games against Morrinsville recently, playing two of the top teams in the intermediate boys’ five-week tournament.

First up was a match against the Matamata team, which spent the first 10 minutes of the game camped in Cambridge’s 22 goal line defence. Covering tackles held them at bay until they managed to squeeze in around the fringe defence.

Cambridge regathered and attacked well for periods but Matamata managed to break the line again and scored a second try, which converted, leaving the score 12-0.

Cambridge put some phases together and spread the ball wide to James Maguire who fended two defenders off and out ran the cover. Unconverted, 12-5 was the half time score.

Early in the second half a nasty head clash saw James Edwards and Andrew Bassam leave the field which meant a reshuffle of resources. The changes made it difficult to win much possession, and Matamata ran in four more tries despite the valiant efforts of the Cambridge defenders. The final score was 34-7.

After a short break Cambridge lined up to play topof-the-table team Hamilton East. A real battle ensued with plenty of possession. Cambridge worked hard and found space out wide, but the Hamilton defence was able to scramble and shutdown the attacks.

An intercept try and a well-constructed team try saw Hamilton ahead 14-0 at half time.

Cambridge put in a massive effort in the second half, first five Tipene Keenan scored a great try and Ryan Harvey converted which closed the score down.

Hamilton managed to score from a turn over to lead 19-7.

The last quarter saw Cambridge maintain possession for long periods but just fail to convert to points. Final score 19-7.

Coaches Dave Peters and Paul Hughes wished to thank all the sponsors and supporters of the team, which will travel to Swarbrick Park in Hamilton for the next round, playing Morrinsville and Tokoroa Tritons.

Minor setback for Melbourne Cup hope Racing fans won’t get the early season sighting of Melbourne Cup candidate Vin De Dance as originally planned.

The Cambridge-trained horse slipped into contention for the Gr.1 A$7.3 million Lexus Melbourne Cup (3200m) at Flemington on November 6 when winning last season’s Gr.1 New Zealand Derby (2400m) at Ellerslie before finishing fourth in both the Gr.1 Rosehill Guineas (2000m), when relegated from second, and the Gr.1 ATC Derby (2400m).

He was put aside for a spell after the Sydney campaign and was coming up nicely until a minor setback.

“He’s had a few gallops and was basically on track to do more, but he had a few niggling issues and it was best to back off him,” co-trainer Andrew Forsman said.

“He had some stiffness in his back area and just wasn’t right.

“By backing off now, he’s got time to get over the problem and he still has a chance to get to the Melbourne Cup if he comes up well enough.

“The plan is to give him 10 days off so he’ll be back in work in about a week. He wasn’t far off trialling when we put him out so he won’t lose much fitness.”

Vin De Dance has been lightly tried and, though he won on debut over 1200m at Pukekohe 11 months ago, he excelled when stepped-up over ground and benefited from a two-race Melbourne spring campaign last year in which he ran third then fifth.

Meanwhile, Forsman and his senior training partner, Murray Baker, were stepping out many members of their team at this week’s two sets of northern trials They had a number of horses trial at Te Teko on Monday, with Group One winner Jon Snow impressing in his trial when second to Te Akau Shark over 1030m.

The stable’s last-start Gr.1 Sydney Cup (3200m) runner-up Zacada was an eye-catching winner of his heat over 1200m and is likely to resume over a mile as he builds towards a Melbourne Cup berth.

New Zealand Derby winner Vin De Dance has had a slight set-back but remains on target for the Gr.1 Melbourne Cup (3200m).

Grand National hopes alive for Farr Emily Farr hasn’t given up hope of landing a Grand National win this year.

The Cambridge jockey was favoured to win the Grand National Hurdles (4200m) on Wednesday last week aboard Waikato visitor Laekeeper after the pair combined to win the Sydenham Hurdles (3100m) on the first day, but had to settle for second behind Jackfrost.

Now Farr is focussing on going

one better in Saturday’s Racecourse Hotel & Motor Lodge Grand National Steeplechase (5600m) on Kings Deep for Hastings trainer Paul Nelson.

“He went a good race in the Koral last Saturday for fourth,” she said. “The ground was a bit firm and, being a bit shorter in distance (4250m), I had to keep the pressure on.

“It’s going to be different in the

Grand National. It’s going to suit him a lot better.”

Farr has ridden Kings Deep three times, including a win at Te Aroha and a fourth in the Hawke’s Bay Steeplechase (4800m).

Kings Deep has performed well at past Grand National meetings.

The son of Viking Ruler won hurdle races on two days of the 2013 Grand National meeting and was second in the 2015 Grand National Hurdles.

Magic touch with mare Minor operation for Pearl It’s no surprise that Eilish McCall is looking forward to her next ride on the under-rated mare Blackmagicwoman.

The Cambridge apprentice has been aboard the daughter of Shocking in all bar one of her four wins with the latest victory coming at Pukekohe last Saturday when Blackmagicwoman charged home to win in the last stride over 2100m.

“She’s an absolute gem. I love riding her. She’s such a pleasure,” McCall said.

McCall is apprenticed to Blackmagicwoman’s trainer, Shaune Ritchie, and her first win came on the mare at Te Rapa 12 months ago.

McCall’s 4kg claim aided Blackmagicwoman on Saturday, reducing the weight to 51.5kgs, 2.5kg below the minimum.

“Blackmagicwoman is such an honest mare,” Ritchie said. ”She’s no world-beater, but the owners are having a lot of fun.”

In-form Cambridge four-year-old racehorse Te Toro Pearl has undergone a minor operation.

“She has had a little chip on her fetlock and has had it removed,” trainer Jon Miller said.

“She was going out for a spell when I noticed it so had it taken out. It wasn’t annoying her at all.

“She’ll be boxed until the 20th (August) then have a wee break and I’ll bring her back in and get her ready for next autumn.”

Te Toro Pearl, a daughter of Bullbars, has continued to impress with her progress through the grades, being unbeaten in her last four starts with the latest win over 1400m at New Plymouth last month.

Lacrosse team back with victory Cambridge High School’s boys lacrosse team bounced back from their previous loss against Te Awamutu with an emphatic victory over St John’s College on Sunday.

With their opponents placed at the bottom of the table, coach Anthony Warrington saw the match as a prime opportunity

to give the team’s junior players more game time, though the opposition managed to score within the first few minutes of the game. “I wasn’t too fazed and thought I’d let the lads play it out,” said Warrington.

Senior player Alistair Hearmon was unfortunately injured during the first third,

in what looked like a twisted ankle. “In the absence of one of our main playmakers the lads still managed to scrape it back to 1-1 in the second third of the game, and 2-1 in the last third,” said Warrington.

“Defensively, we played really well and prevented St Johns from getting many

opportunities on us. Any shots they managed to get were quickly eaten up by our goalie and cocaptain, James Burns.”

The game ended 2-1 to CHS, with player of the day awarded to Deon Hampson-Tindale, a latecomer in the season for Cambridge. “It was his first proper game on Sunday and he didn’t hold back at all,” said Warrington. “Deon took quite a big body-check from one of the bigger St Johns lads, which put him on the floor with some force, but he took it like an absolute champ and didn’t let it get to his head.

“He was really hustling to get us possession on the loose balls, and I’m glad to see he’s fitting into the team.”

This Sunday the team’s competition will crank up when they face top-ofthe-table team Hillcrest.

“It will be a tough game, but I remain optimistic as always!”

The game takes place at 4pm on Sunday at Hamilton Inline Hockey Centre, Old Farm Rd, Hamilton.

Milestone for local runner

By Claire Castle

Local runner Dick Breukink has run just over the equivalent distance of driving from Cambridge to Dunedin in half-marathons over the past decade, clocking up 100 races to raise money for Red Cross.

And it’s an even more impressive feat considering he was 52 when he started the challenge.

In honour of his achievement, the organisers of number 100 – the organisers of the Taupo Marathon – gave him the start number of 100 to run with, which was “such a very cool idea”, Dick said.

While he’s not sure exactly what started him running, Dick has enjoyed running on a regular basis since he came to New Zealand 12 years ago. “It all started in New Zealand and guess that the beauty of the running tracks here, made me enjoy it even more,” he said. Dick reckons he’s clocked up more than 13,000kms in pursuit of the century, and he said that the Taupo race on August 4 was his favourite.

“Some of my management team (from the Novotel Tainui in Hamilton, where he is the general manager) and my kids were at the finish line, along with some friends and fellow running club members,” he said, which made it even

more special.

Not one to slack off, Dick has also completed 14 full marathons over the past 10 years, including the New York and Sydney races.

But the hardest full marathon was the one done on a treadmill in the lobby of the Novotel Tainui hotel in Hamilton.

With five treadmills set up in the lobby, other people came and joined him, including then-All Black Ma’a Nonu.

New Zealand Rugby Union CEO Steve Tew did a half-marathon on a stationary bike, while Richie McCaw and Steve Hansen were also there supporting.

That run was to raise money for the Cancer Society, after Dick’s wife Warin died from lung cancer at just 49 years old. “She encouraged me to run as well and after her passing, I guess that I run for her now.” Hoping to provide inspiration for others over 50 to get out there and get active, Dick said the trick is to remember that running is “sort of fast walking”.

“As long as you take step by step, you will get there. Set yourself some targets and stick to them. Age is just a number and if you want to accomplish something and you really want to do it, you got to tell your brain and get going.”

Wise words for people of any age.

Dick Breukink cracked open the bubbly to celebrate 100th half marathon for the Red Cross earlier this month, raising almost $2,000 over the past decade.

Japanese evergreen oak (Lithocarpus edulis) Here’s an unusual one! Not only is it included in the list of notable Cambridge trees but also, sadly, on the International Union for Conservation of Nature’s (IUCN) Red List of threatened plants. Located near 24 Stafford Street, this architectural variety of ‘stone oak’ with its dark, glossy, leathery leaves, slender, spikey, cream flowers resembling those of the Spanish chestnut, and seeds that resemble acorns, is now mainly an ornamental tree which can grow to 15 metres.

The nuts are actually edible, but because they contain bitter tannins are usually soaked in water before being dried and ground into meal for thickening soups and making bread or porridge.

The bark of the tree is also rich in tannins and was used in the past as a dye and preservative for ropes. The wood is very hard and heavy and used mainly for fuel.

There are several different

Goalkeeper sets up dream end to football career

By Josh Easby

Veteran goalkeeper Jen Hull has lined up the dream end to her football career after leading Cambridge to the final of this year’s Waikato Cup. Hull, 34, plans to retire after the final, ending a seven-season spell at Cambridge where she has made more than 120 appearances for the first team.

On Sunday, she played a crucial role in helping her team reach the final in their 3-1 semi-final win against old rivals Claudelands Rovers. With the team needing a goal, the captain and goalkeeper took responsibility when referee John Mills awarded Cambridge a penalty. Hull struck the ball into the net from the spot to secure the win and go into the team’s fourth

knockout final in six seasons.

Earlier, Cambridge had got off to a poor start, wasting a few chances and allowing Rovers to take an early lead. Gemma Martin brought Cambridge back into the game with an excellent long range goal, making it 1-1 at half-time. The Cambridge team regrouped at the break and came out firing.

Striker Astrid Howarth latched onto a through ball from Maria Cameron to fire home her 21st goal of the season. Hull’s penalty put the result beyond doubt and she and her team mates can now end their season in cup glory when they play the final on Sunday, August 26.

After the match, coach Andrew Taylor named Cameron as the Hill Homes Player of the Day and said

The Cambridge women’s team after their cup semi-final win.

Hull, Abby Cook and Maddy Burnett deserved special mentions for their contributions. Cambridge women have an excellent cup record, being beaten finalists in 2013 and 2015 and winning the trophy in 2014. They also reached the Waikato Plate final in 2016.

Cambridge FC weekend football results

By Josh Easby

Cambridge’s top two men’s sides made a 600km round trip last weekend for crucial matches against Northland FC at Whangarei. Both teams returned with wins.

The Reds first team have almost secured their Northern League status for next year with a courageous 2-0 win at Northland FC. The win means the Reds can be sure of safety from the risk of relegation with a draw or win at Te Atatu on Saturday, regardless of what happens in the last match of the season when Cambridge visit champions Takapuna.

The match began in poor weather and the sides were deadlocked 0-0 at half-time. Leading scorer Josh Clarkin broke the stalemate late in the second spell with his 12th goal of the season.

Jamie Woodlock continued his good form – he scored twice in last weekend’s 3-1 win against Franklin United – to double Cambridge’s lead with five minutes remaining. From there, the Reds made sure they didn’t let Northland in for a chance, and they secured their second clean sheet of the season.

In the reserves game, Cambridge beat Northland 5-2 to remain top of their competition. Striker Adam Brady put the Reds 1-0 up, volleying home an Andrew Taylor corner. Aaron Huesser doubled Cambridge’s lead when he converted a chance created by a Taylor through-ball, then extended the visitors’ lead to three goals when he completed a counter-attacking move. Taylor scored his 20th goal of the season to make it 4-0 after he flicked home a cross from Brady.

With half-time almost upon the teams, Cambridge relaxed and conceded a goal meaning the sides turned around at 4-1.Five minutes into the second half, Northland reduced the deficit further. However, Taylor put the result beyond doubt in the 75th minute when he again combined with Brady. Player of the Day was Alex Mukaka.

Cambridge currently lead the reserves league by three points and a goal difference that is one better than nearest rivals, Takapuna. If both sides win their games next weekend, the title will go down to the final match of the season on September 1 when Cambridge visits Takapuna – and goal difference could be the clincher if Takapuna take the points.

In the Waikato A competition, Te Awamutu defaulted their local derby against Cambridge which means the Reds are ensured of fourth place in the division.

The D1 side continue to lead their division after a thrilling 3-2 win against mid-table Waikato Unicol.

Down 2-0 with 20 minutes to go, the D1s found the energy for a late onslaught and a Dave O’Donnell hat-trick secured a famous victory. The result sets up a crucial match between Cambridge and second-placed Te Aroha Cobras next Saturday with the winner taking pole position in the race to the divisional title.

The D2s hosted bottom-placed Melville United and shared the points in a 1-1 draw. Rob Dickson missed a penalty but made amends by scoring his side’s goal.

Cambridge’s Northern League teams and its women’s team all wore red armbands during their games as a show of support for club supporter Abby Hartley who was seriously ill in a Bali hospital. Her son Toby (16) plays for Cambridge’s reserves.

Get gardening

A monthly gardening column, courtesy of Amber Garden Centre Make the most of the lovely sunny days to tidy the garden and complete any pruning but be wary the night temperatures are still dipping low – a warning that winter hasn’t finished yet.

Mulch can be applied to retain moisture in the soil and prevent weeds popping through.

Spraying Timing is critical at this time of year to prevent disease spores taking hold, such as leaf curl in peaches and nectarines, black spot in apples and shot hole in plums and cherries.

Liquid copper applied pre-bud burst and 10 to 14 days later or immediately following rain.

Codling moth is not a problem until September/October.

Codling moth pheromone traps can be used to indicate the presence of male moths. It is then time to spray with Yates Success Ultra, which has been derived from natural, beneficial soil bacteria.

Strawberries Strawberry plants are available now – get them planted in fertile, free-draining soil, with full sun. Plant them 30cm apart and mulch with pea straw or use jute matting. This helps to keep the fruit clean.

Vegetables Outside plant seeds of broad beans, carrots, peas, spinach, silverbeet and brassicas.

Inside, in trays, sow tomato, chillies and capsicum, as it’s still too cold for these to germinate outside.

Potatoes Try early potatoes in a bucket – three per 15 litre bucket. Start under cover and move outside once sprouted. Remember the early varieties are quick-growing (60 – 70 days) but can’t be stored for long periods like main crop varieties.

Those with small gardens can still enjoy growing their own fruit.

Check out dwarf peaches and nectarines, dwarf pear trees and columnar apples – these can be used as a screen or hedge.

Happy Gardening!

Sport Waikato District Sports Awards open It’s time to acknowledge 2018 sporting excellence in the Waikato region by nominating Cambridge’s outstanding sportspeople and sports supporters.

District Sports Awards nominations are open from now until Friday, September 28. Each Waikato district will have its own awards event, with category winners going forward to be considered for the prestigious Brian Perry Waikato Regional Sports Awards held in January 2019.

Sport Waikato CEO Matthew Cooper said it’s important to recognise our own local sporting talent and volunteers.

Sport Waikato CEO Matthew Cooper is urging the community to get nominations in for this year’s District Sports Awards.

“So many of our sportspeople and emerging athletes are based in the Waikato region, and it’s time to celebrate their achievements. They all put a huge amount of effort and dedication into their sport and we want to acknowledge them at our district awards. It’s also a great time to recognise and acknowledge the hard work of those who support sport – the administrators, coaches, officials and volunteers whose time is spent helping

our athletes to achieve”, Matthew said.

Regional Capability and Events Coordinator Gilly Alexander urged clubs, schools and sports organisations to take the time to fill in a nomination form so that the achievements of a district can be celebrated.

“Sport Waikato makes it as easy as possible to nominate online. The forms can be saved and returned to, so you don’t have to do it all at once. From Administrator of the Year

to Sportsperson of the Year - our categories reflect the various roles in sport, and I urge communities to nominate local sportspeople and volunteers”, Gilly said.

Sport Waikato District Sports Awards events will take place across the region, including Waipa, during November.

Nominations can be made online at http://www.sportwaikato.org.nz/ awards.

Dressage rider recognised St Peter’s student Tayla McDonald has been recognised for her efforts in equestrian sport, being awarded the Dressage New Zealand Award as the highest-scoring rider under 21 years.

Riding Don Qudos, also known as Pedro, the 14-year-old earned the recognition after accumulating the most points over the season across several Equestrian Sports New Zealand events in the region.

Last year she was also credited under Dressage NZ’s Horse Sports Pony and Young Rider Amateur Top Ten League Award as the Top Score Rider in the North Island for 12 years and under.

She was then made part of the top 18 New Zealand under 21 riders team invited to join the Dressage New Zealand Young Rider Talent ID Squad for 2017/18.

Way to go, Tayla!

Submitted by the Hautapu Sports Indoor Bowling Club After two weeks of no bowls due to unforeseen circumstances, we finally played the finals of our men’s and ladies’ singles.

Bruce Watkinson became the men’s champion, defeating Lloyd Nicholson, and Marg January is now the ladies champion after defeating Debbie Foster.

Following competition, we held a club night which was won by Jake Oudes (skip), Andrea Anderson, Steve Foster and Bruce Watkinson with second place taken by David Jenkins (skip), Ron Greenwood, Rachel Greenwood and Lloyd Nicholson.

The dummies on the night were Lynette McCheyne (skip), Peter Bolt, Val Massey and Marg January. A very big and enjoyable night.

Elite team named for rowing champs Last week Rowing NZ announced its Elite team set to contest the World Rowing Championships in Plovdiv, Bulgaria, September 8 – 16.

The announcement on Thursday at Lake Karapiro saw local rower Mahe Drysdale switched to the Men’s Quad, after the former single-sculler lost the Men’s Single Scull seat to Robbie Manson, who secured the place with an impressive performance at the Rowing World Cup III (July 13 – 15).

While FISA allows countries to send multiple crews to individual events at World Rowing Cup regattas, countries are limited to one entry per event for World Rowing Championships, hence why Mason took the single seat. To secure the seat Manson needed to beat Mahe Drysdale at World Cup III. Manson not only achieved this, but took home two gold medals from World Cup II (June 21 - 24) and III. Last year Manson set a world record in the men’s single sculls at World Cup II, but was plagued by injury for the remainder of the season, finishing a disappointing 5th at the Rowing World Championships.

After missing out on representing New Zealand in the men’s single scull, eight-time former national single sculls champion and two time Olympic champion Mahe Drysdale will join Lewis Hollows, Cameron Crampton and Nathan Flannery in the Men’s Quad, coached by Mike Rodger.

“Despite training throughout New Zealand’s winter, we topped the medal table in Europe at World Rowing Cup III and our team have proven themselves as a very competition threat for all rowing nations,” said High Performance Director Alan Cotter.

“We’re confident we’re presenting an even stronger front for the World Championships.”

New Zealand’s Women’s Pair of Grace Prendergast and Kerri Gowler will compete together again. The pair remain unbeaten since 2017 and won gold in both World Rowing Cup II and III. Olivia Loe and Brooke Donoghue will also represent New Zealand once again after winning gold in the Women’s Double Sculls at World Rowing Cup III. The Lightweight Men’s Double Scull duo of Ben van Dalen (St Peter’s graduate) and Matthew Dunham (Cambridge High School graduate) remains unchanged, as does the Women’s Four of Georgia Perry (St Peter’s graduate) Ellie Jeurissen, Phoebe Spoors and Ruby Tew. The full list of the NZ Elite rowing team is available at www.rowingnz.kiwi. The team will depart for Bulgaria on August 28.

BLACKkKLANSMAN “Best film I’ve seen in ages – the film is amazing! I really think it will be a break out hit. It takes you through a rollercoaster of all emotion – humour, sadness, shock and awe it has everything.” Matthew. From Spike Lee comes the incredible true story of an American hero.

It’s the early 1970s, and Ron Stallworth (John David Washington) is the first African-American detective to serve in the Colorado Springs Police Department.

Determined to make a name for himself, Stallworth bravely sets out on a dangerous mission: infiltrate and expose the Ku Klux Klan. The young detective soon recruits a more seasoned colleague, aFlip Zimmerman (Adam Driver), into the undercover investigation of a lifetime. Together, they team up to take down the extremist hate group as the organization aims to sanitize its violent rhetoric to appeal to the mainstream.

DARKEST MINDS When teens mysteriously develop powerful new abilities, they are declared a threat by the government and detained. Sixteen-year-old Ruby, one of the most powerful young people anyone has encountered, escapes her camp and joins a group of runaway teens seeking safe haven. Soon this newfound family realizes that, in a world in which the adults in power have betrayed them, running is not enough and they must wage a resistance, using their collective power to take back control of their future. Good mixture of action, drama, and comedy. For those who love stories with romance, friendship, action, powers, overcoming one's fears, along with humour, diversity and visions of the future. It should kept you on the edge of your seat.
