Cambridge newsroom update

Last week, we said goodbye to another of Cambridge’s tall trees with the passing of George Boulton, former editor and managing director of the Cambridge Independent newspaper. I never had the opportunity to meet George, but by all accounts he was a gentleman in true sense of the word. Readers will remember his Cambridge News column – George is On About – as well as his extensive involvement in the community. Our condolences go out to George’s family and his many friends. We have an obituary for him on page 13.

Also this week, we take a look at the gigantic mountain of recycling that is piling up at the Smart Environmental centre outside of Thames, where Cambridge’s recycling is sent. Now that China has cut right down on what they will buy from the West, it’s probably a good time to ditch the commonly held view that recycling is somehow ‘doing your bit’ for the environment. Many of us, myself included, have been feeling all virtuous as the contents of the blue recycling bins disappear week after week, safe in the knowledge the rubbish is not headed to landfill.

But really, as we look more carefully at what happens to it then, maybe it’s time to look at reducing and reusing as our top priorities, with recycling as a last resort. Because we can’t go on like this.

In other news, we have the winners of the Lit Quiz, St Peter’s, who have reinforced the point that when a local team comes second at something it’s a good idea to find out who won it. Pretty impressive that Cambridge had a first and second, with St Peter’s and Cambridge Middle School taking out the top two spots. Well done, everyone!

Quizmasters win $1000 A team of Year 7 and 8 students from St Peter’s School won the regional Lit Quiz competition held at Southwell School last week, where 51 teams competed. This has qualified the team for nationals, to be held in Wellington on Sunday, June 10.

They won a total of $1000 ($250 each). The Lit Quiz is a popular international literature quiz for students aged 10 – 13. It was founded in New Zealand by Wayne Mills and quizzes are held each year. St Peter’s teacher in charge Becki Botherway said the students only had six weeks to prepare for the competition. “We held twice-weekly practises in the library putting together lots of quizzes on different genres of literature, for example, myths and legends, classics, picture books and more,” she said.

Students were encouraged not only to read but to watch movies based on books and listen to audiobooks.

But of course, the main emphasis was for them to have fun, enjoy reading, and learn about some new books they may like to read.

The team is busy preparing for nationals by practising four times a week. Becki said the format of nationals is very different.

“The questions are more complex, there are long oral questions and the team has to press a

buzzer and orally give the answer. In the regionals, the team answered the 10 questions on a sheet of paper,” she explained.

There will be five categories at nationals, but the students don’t know what they will be about.

“Naturally the aim is to make the world final in July, which will be held in Auckland,” said Becki.

Each year the final is held in a different country.

Young musicians taking to the stage

Cambridge’s aspiring young musicians will take to the stage this Sunday in the Waikato heat of the 2018 Smokefree Rockquest, taking place at Clarence Street Theatre on May 27 from 12pm.

The “bands” segment of the secondary school music competition kicks off at 1.30pm.

Six bands with local students will battle it out against 23 other bands from schools around the region.

These include St Peter’s School bands Stinking Bishop, Artificial Intelligence, Casper and Let’s Not Pretend, as well as Cambridge High School bands Betend Rocket and Ignite.

Tickets are $10 at the door, children five and under free. The top 12 bands at the regional heat will go on to “play-off” at the regional final on Saturday, June 16 at Zeal Hamilton, and from there the top finalists will go on to play at the national final in Auckland on September 22.

Awards and prizes will be up for grabs at all of the events. St Peter’s band American Boyfriend performed at last year’s regional final.

All piled up and nowhere to go

By Claire Castle

As the full effects of China’s decision to stop importing recycled rubbish from the West kicks in, the backlog of recycled waste at the Smart Enviromental plant near Thames is steadily growing, with Cambridge’s rubbish adding to the pile.

Smart Environmental’s managing director Grahame Christian said there is roughly 4,000 tonnes of recycling piled up at the facility, which takes waste from Waipa, North Waikato, Matamata/Piako, Hauraki, Thames Coromandel and Rotorua. And there are five other plants throughout the country facing the same issue.

Quickfire News PM’s M.bovis visit

Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern (pictured) was in Te Awamutu this week with Biosecurity and Agriculture Minister Damien O’Connor, talking to farmers following the announcement that Mycoplasma bovis has been found on a farm in Cambridge. The PM said she was still hopeful the disease could be wiped out, rather than just managed, but a final decision is expected on Monday about the way forward. The bacterial infection has been spreading since it was first detected in Oamaru in July last year, and at last count has infected 39 farms across the country, with 328 under regulatory control meaning the movement of cattle is restricted. The Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI) is also holding a meeting today, May 25, at the Don Rowlands Centre in Karapiro from 11 – 1 to further discuss the outbreak.

13 Reasons Why: What parents need to know

The Mental Health Foundation is warning parents that season two of the popular Netflix show 13 Reasons Why is out now. The show takes place after the suicide of 17-year-old Hannah Baker, and explores the ‘reasons why’ she may have taken her life.

When Season 1 was released in March 2017 it quickly became Netflix’s most talked about show. Season 2 features a trial between Hannah’s parents and her school, trying to discover who is most to blame for Hannah’s death. The controversial show has been given an RP18 rating by the chief censor due to rape, suicide themes, drug use and bullying. An RP18 classification means that someone under 18 must be supervised by a parent or guardian when viewing the series. The Mental Health Foundation has a range of resources on its website – www.mentalhealth.org.nz – to help parents and teenagers navigate the themes of the show. Season one contained graphic scenes and exploitation of heavy issues that left some viewers feeling distressed and in need of support, with season two likely to have a similar effect, the foundation advised. Chief censor David Shanks said, “if a child you care for is planning to watch the show, you should sit down and watch it with them – if not together then at least around the same time. That way you can at least try to have informed and constructive discussions with them about the content.”

While China is not the only country importing recycled material to process, it was the main player and its decision to stop imports has had a knockon effect throughout the Western world. While they had tightened up the industry in the past, “no one believed China would totally shut the door,” Grahame said. But they did. From January 1, China banned the import of all plastics, slag, unsorted waste paper and textiles for environmental and health reasons, meaning $21M of New Zealand’s waste will need to go somewhere else or face the landfill.

Grahame said China has the infrastructure set up to process the recycling, describing the scale of the operations over there as “astounding”, however one of the drivers behind the decision was the frequent mislabelling of waste being sent to China. “Some American companies were putting contaminated waste into containers and labelling it as recycling,” Grahame explained, adding this meant the Chinese resorted to disposing of the unusable waste into landfill, rivers or the sea. “I understand them not wanting to be the world’s rubbish dump.”

While this is not the end for recycling, China’s move has meant the price paid per tonne of mixed plastics, such as ice cream containers, has plummeted from $130 per tonne to zero, so sending the recycling away will cost money rather than earning it.

Waipa District Council’s general manager, service delivery, Barry Bergin, said that councils around the country are dealing with the issue. “We’re in ongoing discussions with Smart Environmental which is contracted to collect our recycling until February next year. We have some time to look at options and are doing that now,” he said.

Grahame said he hopes this backlog will encourage New Zealanders to look at the bigger picture.

“Our consumption of plastic is frightening, and people need to think seriously about what they’re buying, instead of thinking it’s (the rubbish) is someone else’s problem.”

It’s a message echoed by Barry, who pointed out

Letter to the Editor

Smart Environmental’s managing director Grahame Christian said consumers need to stop thinking of rubbish as someone else’s problem. that consumers hold the real power because they make purchasing decisions. “We’ll only reduce the use of plastics if we change buying behaviour. We’d like people to think hard before they buy products in single use containers. If they really do need to buy them, can they buy in bulk for example? Can the containers be reused before they are finally recycled?

It’s that kind of behaviour change that will make the real difference in the long-term.”

Currently Waipa’s glass goes Auckland for recycling, and cardboard goes to Kinleith Mill for reuse. There’s a stable and local market for aluminium, tin and steel. Mixed paper is also problematic and that is currently being stockpiled although other markets may open up, Barry said.

Editor A problem seems to exist over the unhealthy state of the local lake, which seems to be ongoing due to massive costs to rectify.

Potential problems can exist with bird diseases crossing to other species [including humans] I offer two fixes to be considered: 1. Fill the damn thing in. Hard fill is available in regular quantities much of it coming from Hamilton to our doorstep to be dumped at Hooker Rd. You may be horrified at this

proposal but shut your eyes for five minutes and visualise the options.

It’s mind-boggling.

2. A reasonable fix is right on our doorstep. The Waikato River? The flow is strong enough to give us renewable energy to run a water wheel (large diameter) in a floating cradle running a low energy water pump, just below the Ferguson Bridge. This would produce enough water flow piped to the lake to keep it flushed to a sustainable level of health. In all probability this would only be required to run

available in various sizes and selected fabrics

over the summer months.

I call on all like-minded people prepared to solve the problem, to participate in a cheap fix, that councillors over many years seem unable to fix. (abridged) WJ Woolston Council response: Over coming months, Council hopes to talk to the community about possible options and the costs of those options to improve water conditions in the lake.

Pool demolition underway

By Sophie Iremonger

Monday morning’s heavy rain held off for just a moment to allow the site blessing of the new Cambridge pool complex to get underway.

A rainbow suitably showed its colours as local iwi circled the old pool reciting “Ka Mate”, to begin the proceedings. Mayor Jim Mylchreest welcomed a gathering of over 50 people at the Cambridge Pool site, where demolition of the outdated facility would commence afterwards.

He thanked all those present, including major sponsors such as Perry Group, Trust Waikato, Waipa Networks and of course the Cambridge Lions, who made headlines last year when they donated $100,000 towards the project.

“It’s really a community effort, and I really want to thank all of the sponsors and supporters that we’ve had,” Mylchreest said. “Having the Lions Club make the announcement very early in this fundraising round of their contribution of a hundred thousand dollars was absolutely fantastic, and I believe probably the turning point in the community views of this project…

Once that offer of that very generous donation came through, that was really a phenomenal lift to the fundraising group.”

During the formalities Fred Hansen from the Cambridge Lions presented Mayor Mylchreest with a cheque for the remaining $50,000 of their $100,000 donation.

The Mayor acknowledged the project’s long journey to get to the point of demolition and construction, noting that anyone under 12 wouldn’t have been alive when original planning began.

“It’s a phenomenal facility that Cambridge will have, and certainly we look forward to it being completed,” he said.

Construction of the project is being completed by Naylor Love Waikato/ BOP, headed by Cambridge local Kris MacCauley. MacCauley confirmed construction of the project would commence at the end of June once demolition was completed and is planned to be completed by October of next year.

Plans for the $16.6 million project include an upgrade of the existing outdoor pool, a new 10-lane indoor pool and learner’s pool, a hydrotherapy pool, spa and sauna and a children’s splash pad, as well as increased seating, a community room, carparking, landscaping and an upgrade of Williamson St.

Gala for band’s trip An afternoon gala concert at St Peter’s School on June 24 will be a major fundraising event in Cambridge Brass Band’s quest to support its first trip abroad.

The band needs to raise around $75,000 to attend the November 4 centenary commemorations of the liberation of Le Quesnoy (pronounced Le Kinwah). In what has been described as a “text book” battle, the medieval walled town in northern France was liberated by New Zealanders from German occupation just 10 days before the end of World War One – with no loss of civilian life.

Now one of two of Cambridge’s sister cities, Le Quesnoy has vowed to never forget the bravery and sacrifice of the Kiwis and invited the Cambridge Brass Band to participate in the November’s commemorations. While in France, the band will also play at the opening of the New Zealand War Museum in Le Quesnoy and will participate in public concerts with the local youth band. It will also visit schools and retirement facilities.

The band is one of the oldest community

bands in the country; the landmark trip to France will be its first out of New Zealand.

It is understood the New Zealand/France Friendship Fund provided $15,000 at the outset of fundraising efforts, with the Lions Club of Cambridge donating $5,000. The band has raised at least twice that, and various organisations and individuals in Cambridge have pledged their support.

“This gala concert will be an important step,” assistant musical director and principal cornet player Rod Hocking said

said. “We will have guests there from the Le Quesnoy Friendship Society, as well as local MPs, the Mayor and staff from the school.”

An important part of the event will be the raffling of a number of special items, most notably a 1m square “Poppies Quilt” made by Heather Clark, as well as several paintings and a chopping board made by local woodturners.

The fundraising concert at St Peter’s on Sunday, June 24, will start at 3pm.

Tickets are available from Cambridge Paper Plus and from the band: secretary@ cambridgebrassband. co.nz.

Heading to the top for charity

By Claire Castle

Four Cambridge volunteer firefighters joined around 950 others in a race up the Auckland Sky Tower on Saturday, taking the 1,103 steps to the top clad in full firefighting kit and breathing apparatus weighing up to 25kg.

As well as tackling the physical trial of the Firefighter Sky Tower Stair Challenge, the Cambridge team was raising funds for Leukaemia & Blood Cancer New Zealand. More than $1.25M was raised overall, smashing the target of $1M. Of that, $2,225 was raised by the Cambridge participants – well over their goal of $1,000. Firsttime participant Michael Graham said the event was about as difficult as he expected, and that he would definitely be doing it again next year.

The camaraderie among the firefighters was an added bonus, he added, with

everyone there for the same goal. “It was a lot of fun,” he said.

The first firefighter stair challenge was in 2005, when 88 firefighters raised $17,500. Since then, the event has raised more than $7M for Leukaemia and Blood Cancer NZ organisation which is committed to improving the quality of life for patients and their families living with leukaemia, lymphoma, myeloma, and related blood conditions, as well as funding research.

Leukaemia & Blood Cancer New Zealand General Manager Georgie Hackett said the organisation was so grateful for the generosity and hard work of firefighters participating in the Firefighter Sky Tower Stair Challenge.

“We are also so thankful to the many communities throughout the country who support their local brigades so enthusiastically in their fundraising efforts. This fundraising is the backbone of our service and helps

us grow our vital support for families living with blood cancer in their communities right across the country.”

The fastest firefighter winning for his

eighth year in a row was Josh Harrison of Mt Wellington Fire Brigade with a personal best of 8 minutes and 11 seconds.

Cambridge to Hamilton cycle path underway this year can connect the southern end of Te Awa with the northern end of the Waikato River Trail at Horahora,” Ms Palmer says.

Te Awa – Cambridge to Hamilton will be built in four sections.

Sections 1 and 2 will be constructed by the NZ Transport Agency and Waipa District Council respectively and will link Cambridge and SH21 Airport Road. Sections 3 and 4 will be built by the Waikato District Council and Hamilton City Council and will link SH21 with the existing cycle network at Cobham

Drive.

Funding for the three local authorities is subject to confirmation in their respective long-term plans and the Regional Land Transport Plan 2018-21 which should be finalised this year.

Supplied Work is set to start on the final piece of the Te Awa River Ride shared path, between Cambridge and Hamilton, later this year.

Funding has been confirmed for the NZ Transport Agency to build the first section of the 20km path, which is the last link in providing a continuous cycling and walking route from Karapiro to Ngaruawahia.

“We’re delighted to be able to begin work on Te Awa – Cambridge to Hamilton which will provide a safe cycling alternative for our communities,” says the Transport Agency’s Director Regional Relationships Central North Island Parekawhia McLean.

The final route details are still being finalised, but it will be a combination of roadside paths and purpose-built sections nearer the river which will provide connections to community facilities and the existing cycle networks of Cambridge, Tamahere and Hamilton.

“Once this is complete we will have a 60-kilometre path from south of Karapiro to Ngaruawahia, providing amazing recreational and tourism opportunities for the Waikato,” says Te Awa River Ride Charitable Trust General Manager Jennifer Palmer.

Breaking up with Boxing raises $10K for Land SAR plastic, for good

A charity boxing event in Cambridge has raised $10,000 for Land Search and Rescue New Zealand (LandSAR). The fifth biennial Fight Night saw 20 NZ Young Farmers members climb into the ring for a good cause on Saturday.

Boxers clashed in front of a crowd of 360 people at the Sir Don Rowlands Centre.

“We ask each boxer to raise $300 in sponsorship. The rest of the income is generated through ticket sales,” said co-organiser Courtney Goodare.

“It’s fantastic that we will be donating $10,000 to LandSAR to help it buy equipment for volunteers.”

LandSAR is a national organisation providing land search and rescue services to people who’re lost, missing or injured.

“It does extremely important work,” he said.

The first Fight Night was held in 2012. Since then the event has fundraised for the Waikato Westpac

Rescue Helicopter, St John Ambulance and the Rural Support Trust.

NZ Young Farmers members spend months preparing for the highintensity fights.

“Most participants train in a proper boxing gym two to three times a week from January until the big night,” said Courtney.

Olivia Jordan was named the most scientific boxer. Lisa Kendall and Lucy Moss won the award for most entertaining fight.

Spectators sporting giant elbow-high boxing gloves also went up against each other in minute-long bouts.

“It’s a bit of fun watching people trying to pummel each other while wearing giant, goofy gloves,” he laughed.

Planning is already underway for the next Fight Night in 2020.

“We’re looking for a bigger venue.

We want to be able to cater for up to 600 people,” said Courtney.

With more and more of locals breaking up with single-use plastic bags in favour of reusable bags, the use of the ubiquitous shopping bag seems to be in decline. But the bags are just the tip of a plastic iceberg. Sam Brydon from Plastic Bag Free Cambridge would like to encourage locals to start thinking about other places they can cut plastic from their lives – starting with takeaway containers. Sam said she recently phoned a restaurant to order a takeaway, and asked if she could bring in her own containers for the restaurant to put her meal in. Obviously not something they had encountered before, the restaurant took a bit of persuading, Sam said, but they got on board with the idea. “It worked really well in the end,” Sam said.

“Two years ago, nobody took reusable cups to get coffee, but now they’re a common sight,” Sam pointed out, adding that she hopes the same will become true of takeaway containers.

A good place to start is to have a suitable container on your desk at work, so that a sushi lunch can come without the single-use plastic container.

“Or you could just take a plate from your office to the food place and carry it back. Alternatively, instead of spending the time eating the food at your office desk, you could sit in and take five minutes to enjoy the food at the café or restaurant,” Sam suggested. It’s a small change that, if enough people got on board with it, could make a big difference to the environment. A quick and very unscientific survey of food places in town showed they were unanimously in favour of people bringing their own containers. Cafes in particular were keen, considering that they already have a growing number of people bringing in reusable coffee cups.

And given the plastic mountain that’s growing now that China has stopped buying our recycling, we may soon have no choice about altering our plastic habits.

OBITUARY

Remembering George Boulton

By Carole Hughes

The newspaper industry was in George Boulton’s blood.

His father Sam Boulton was one of the owners of the Cambridge Independent in partnership with Pip Vennel, Harold Petersen and Gib James.

So, George grew up with the Cambridge Independent, probably for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

He eventually became Editor and Managing Director after learning the printing trade thoroughly.

Last week, George, at 88 gave up his fight with deteriorating health and at his farewell in the Union Church, Cambridge, the town and Leamington Rugby came to say their final goodbye.

After George retired and the Inde closed its doors, he could afford to look back on his family‘s years of involvement in the community.

His wife Bev and sons, Brent and Grant, are quick to say that a newspaper like the Cambridge Independent, a sole player for so many years in the Cambridge area, was the life blood of the town.

George‘s father Sam Boulton, became Managing Editor in the 1940’s and had become a major shareholder along with Gib James, Harold Petersen, Pip Vennel. George’s future had always been sealed in the world of print.

George told the story, with his tongue in cheek, of how his father threatened him, “whatever you do, I will be up there and if anything happens to the business you’ll be down there.”

The Cambridge Independent was the only newspaper in the Cambridge area for many years and George’s leadership ensured that it was always the hub of the town and he led a fair and balanced news team.

This was all before the advent of technology and computers, and the reporting and advertising team became Cambridge personalities and were very much part of the town.

Gordon Chesterman became editor in 1978 and it was at this time that the Cambridge Independent won three Community Newspaper Awards for journalism, advertising and community leadership.

George had an easy and relaxed way of dealing with people, many of who felt comfortable walking into the Independent, chatting to the staff.

This was their newspaper and they loved it. They reacted with mild hysteria if they were missed in a delivery.

George’s personality, as large as his shoe size and height, extended into Rotary, Jaycees, sport and particularly rugby. Ex All Black Richard Myers spoke of his dedication, taking on the position of club secretary for 20 years, treasurer and manager of two international touring teams.

A personality, yes but with a soft voice and gentle demeanour.

His two sons, Brent and Grant, went straight from school to the Cambridge Independent, both working in production and Brent also in photography.

Then the time came when typewriters were sent to the museum and this change in technology made its mark.

Above all, George listened to his editors and staff and with them strode into this technology.

George, as someone said, was a town dignitary, big in physique, passionate about the Cambridge Independent, about his wife, and his family.

All these passions created a dynasty for the Boultons, and dynasties are worth remembering.

Suffice it to say that when George retired he missed the newspaper world.

To his delight he was invited by the Cambridge News to start up his column, “George is On About”, a continuation of a feature that he wrote for so many years in the Independent. This brought him back in contact with Cambridge people and he enjoyed every moment of it.

The Cambridge Independent and George Boulton have earned a place in the history of Cambridge because the people loved it and had a huge respect for him. He and his staff provided a valuable service to Cambridge for so many years.

Married to Bev for 60 years, she shared the joy and pain which is involved in running a newspaper and a business. She, with her sons, grandchildren and greatgrandchild can look back with pride at George and their Cambridge loyalty and devotion.

Putting yourself out there – but how?

Whether you are an introvert or extrovert, it really doesn’t matter, as you can step out of your comfort zone…if you choose to. Whether it be for a new job, business, or seeking a new client, mumtreprenur Taryn Lyford has some tips to make it a little less daunting: Ask a lot of questions When you are unsure about the how, the best way is to find out. Seek out people that have either done it before, or seek existing guidelines, or associate yourself with insightful industry leaders, who are willing to help you.

You never know, until you try or ask.

Be curious and watch for clues Before I visit a premises or new prospect, I will do a bit of research on the business or concept. It pays to experience the business yourself first if you can before you interact with them on an engaged basis. I find this helps to build rapport and familiarity - name to a face, and when I used to apply for a job in my area, I would do this, because it definitely puts you ahead of the other applicants. It shows that you are taking initiative.

Who else can you connect with?

Every networking event is an opportunity to talk to others.

The beauty of the conversation is discovering that there are other people to meet and discuss ideas with. The

power of collaboration shouldn’t be undervalued in this instance.

Remember they are people too Strip away the need to convince them to invest in you. If you are directed by a NEED it will come across as desperate, and the conversation will be directed by your fears. Instead, ask them about their day to break the ice, for example; “What did you get up to in the weekend?”. You may find some common ground to talk about things.

Often conversations will flow naturally.

You can ask things about why or how they started the business, or how they are involved. Be directed by what you can do to help them, or how you can improve their situation/life/business through tips that they could find useful.

Remember; you never know until you try! You might even enjoy it

Snow skier back from Canada

By Sophie Iremonger

It was the experience of a lifetime when St Peter’s School student Meghan Hood represented New Zealand last month at the 2018 Whistler Cup. The international event sees under 14 and under 16-year-old snow skiers battle it out on the slopes of the 2010 Winter Olympics, the mighty Whistler Blackcomb mountains in West Vancouver, Canada.

It was Meghan’s first time representing our nation, in a country she’d never been to before. “It was amazing,” she said. “The competition was a huge step up, and the runs that we skied on were very technical, more competitive.”

The Year 11 student, who has been skiing since age three and racing since ten, said the thought of representing New Zealand never really got to her, “because I was so focussed in my runs,” she said. “But at the end of the competition I was like ‘wow I just skied for New Zealand, that was a pretty big deal’.”

Most of Meghan’s competitors had the benefit of training over an entire winter in the Northern Hemisphere, whilst the Kiwi team had just two

weeks of training under Olympian coaches Ben Griffin and Willis Feasey.

It was the ski of her life when Meghan competed in the downhill slalom speed event known as super-G, making the top 20 for the first phase of racing, but dropping back to a 32ndplace finish amongst the field of 72 skiers, after a late turn mid-way caused significant time loss. Although only a slight delay, placings in ski racing are down to 0.01 of a second.

“At that level it’s really hard mentally, to calm the nerves… it’s very challenging mentally and physically,” Meghan said.

Then came the SG and slalom races – two races with combined times. “I was very nervous in the start gate… It was a slowish run in the first race and then really fast in the second one, so I just got pushed out,” said Meghan, who placed just outside the top 30, in 31st place.

The baffling teams-racing round saw the best-ranked country go up against the worst-ranked, and the second-best team up pitted against the second-worst, and so on. So, when New Zealand went up against the 6th-ranked French team, so it was no surprise that France won. “I thought it

was pretty crazy,” Meghan said.

Having just turned 16, Meghan now enters the FIS series – upgrading from age group competition straight into the professional realm, where she can collect FIS points at each event to count towards a placing in the next international competition.

“I’ll be starting last too, so I’ll get all

the ruts in the snow and that, but it will be a good challenge to get in the (top) 30s.”

Meghan will head back to Cardrona, where she trains during winter, when the New Zealand ski season kicks off in early July, and plans to take part in her first competition of the season at the Wanaka FIS Tech Series, August 1 - 4.

BMXers off to world champs

By Sophie Iremonger

One third of the New Zealand team heading to the BMX World Championships next week hail from Cambridge. The tenperson team said they’re very excited for the event and feel more ready than ever, having made top placings at this year’s nationals, and some with world-champion titles already under their belt.

“It’s a good reflection of the level of riding at our club,” club member Sharon Greenough said of the high number of local riders in the 35-strong NZ team.

Britain-based Cambridge local Ben Walter adds to the team of local riders: Leila Walker, Tim Ferguson, Tasman Wakelin, Charlie Lester-Rosson, Bennett Greenough, Jack Greenough, Lily Greenough, Louis Hunt, Meg Cannon and Kobi Russell, competing at the World BMX Championships in Baku, Azerbaijan June 5 – 9.

Leila Walker is aiming

to make it a 6th worldwin this year after being world number 1 in her age group for the last five consecutive years. “It’s an awesome opportunity again,” she said. “Being able to represent your country at such a young age is really cool.”

Having placed number one at the national championships in the 35+ age group, and after attending several world championships, Tim Ferguson has first-place firmly set in his sights. “I haven’t got that number one yet, I’ve made the world final a few times, but never got the number one,” he said. “It’s going to be just, ‘go in there and execute your race’. It doesn’t matter where it is, it’s always exciting racing worlds, I love big races,” he said with a smile.

Jack Greenough, who also came first in his age group at nationals, and fourth at last year’s world champs, said he was aiming for the top eight, “but anything better would be awesome,” said the 12-year-old boys’ competitor. “It’s a pretty

Big win in the wet for Hautapu Submitted by the Hautapu Sports Club Hautapu has finished the first round of the premier rugby season with the Hautapu Development team finishing second to Fraser Tech.

Their game against Hamilton Old Boys was played in very wet overhead conditions, making the ball very slippery, but the ground conditions were a credit to grounds staff.

Early in the second spell Hautapu took the advantage, scoring two tries to lead 22-0. With all the dominant possession Hautapu failed to score again, letting Hamilton Old Boys in late in the game. Final score 22-5 to Hautapu.

The next instalment of the Flying Phantom Series is now underway at Riva del Garda, Italy, wrapping up this Sunday, May 27. Cambridge's Micah Wilkinson is competing in the competition alongside his long-time NZ team mate Olivia Mackay of Napier. The pair finished second during the first round of competition in March, sailing an 18ft flying catamaran over four days of competition at Muscat, Oman.

The competition is a smaller series held in conjunction with the Extreme Sailing Series. Having won the Red Bull Foiling Generation World Final together in 2016, the Kiwi pair will no doubt pull off another sunning victory this weekend.

Winning performance from Power O’Hata

Cambridge-based racehorse Power O’Hata scored in the Distinction Hamilton Hotel 1200 race at Te Rapa on Saturday. The Murray Baker and Andrew Forsman-trained filly had downed a quality line-up in the Gr.3 Cambridge Breeders Stakes (1200m) at her last appearance and faced several of the same rivals in Saturday’s three-year-old contest.

She enjoyed a handy run close to the speed throughout, before being angled wide to make her challenge on the home bend. Despite sustaining a determined bid, the filly appeared to be in trouble with 200m to run as Malambo speared through on the inside of runners to establish a clear lead at that point. But she refused to be denied, with rider Matthew Cameron extracting the best out of her to master Malambo and claim victory on the line.

Ironman on his way to world champs

By Sophie Iremonger

Hot on the heels of completing in his first Ironman event in March, exCHS head boy Taine Rose is already preparing for his next adventure – competing at the Long-Distance Triathlon World Championships in Denmark this July.

“This is my first time representing New Zealand, so that should be pretty exciting,” the 19-year-old said last week. “Now the idea is just to train as much as possible so that I can get over there and just be the best version of myself, so that I can do the best that I can for New Zealand.”

Taine has been training ten to twenty hours a week in and around Cambridge, juggling his sporting ambitions with his job at Agrowquip.

The 2016 Cambridge High School graduate will swim 3km, cycle 120km and run 30km at the Denmark event – only about three quarters of the

distances he completed at the NZ Ironman event in March, where he placed 6th in the 20 – 24-year-olds’ age group – and third out of the New Zealand athletes in that division.

Taine finished the mammoth March mission in ten hours and 49 minutes, having swum 8km, cycled 180km and run a full marathon distance of 42.2km.

“Now that I’ve done Ironman I can sort of, tuck that under myself and go a bit faster in a shorter distance (at the Long-Distance Triathlon World Champs),” Taine said. “I’m sure it will still be quite a long day, probably 8 hours or so, but less than an Ironman!”

Taine said the best part about attending the Ironman event at Taupo was being around so many like-minded sports fanatics.

“A lot of the time people spend hours training by themselves and then finally they get to do the event and there’s all these other people there… all these loners finally get to hang out,” he

laughed. “It’s really cool.”

Taine’s qualification for the LongDistance Triathlon World Champs actually came when he competed in the Port of Tauranga Half Ironman earlier this year, where he won his age group. Heading into the international event, he hopes to make it into the top 15. “That’s what I’m aiming for,” Taine said. His cousin Conan Hansen, who has completed several Ironman events, is helping and advising him in his training methods, and Taine is also being supported by NZ Louvres, Agrowquip, and Cambridge Accountants, whom he wished to thank, as well as his training partners here in Cambridge.

And the journey won’t stop in Denmark, afterwards Taine will start training for next year’s Port of Tauranga Half Ironman and the full NZ Ironman, aiming to win his age group qualify for the world Ironman event in Hawaii.

three gruelling days of trials at Lake Karapiro from May 4 – 6.

The young rowers were pitted against each other during trials, earning points for top placements in each race, to determine who got a spot in the team.

Lily, a 2017 St Peter’s School graduate, said making the New Zealand team had always been a personal goal. “I’ve always wanted to do it, and now that I’ve done it, it feels really cool to be able to step up and train even harder,” she said.

“It still hasn’t really sunk in,” added 17-year-old Kaylin, a St Peter’s School student.

The team will be competing against their Aussie counterparts in the Under 21 Trans-Tasman regattas, competing for the elusive Rusty Robinson Trophy which Australia has held for the last few years. The two-part competition includes a regatta in Sydney over June 28 and 29, followed by another regatta at Karapiro in late August – where a Canadian team will also compete for the first time.

“Each day it’s a different kind of boat.

Taine Rose shows off the medals he earned this year at the NZ Ironman event and the Port of Tauranga Half Ironman.

Rowers preparing for Australian challenge

By Sophie Iremonger

Three Cambridge rowers will take part in an Australasian showdown in the coming months, following selection in the Under 21 New Zealand rowing team. Lily Butler, rowing as a women’s heavyweight single sculler, Justine Hobbs, rowing in the lightweight women’s double scull, and Kaylin Wren, the women’s reserve, will be part of the Kiwi team contesting the Aussies in the Under 21 Trans-Tasman regattas.

All three were excited to be named on the team this month, having completed

The first day we’ll be in our small boats, double and singles, and then we’ll go into quads and then move into the eight for the last day,” former Cambridge High School student Justine said.

The different racing format wasn’t the only highlight for the trio – they are also looking forward to the atmosphere at the international competition.

The team will commence their training camp at Podium Lodge on June 15.

Goalkeeper finally makes Reds’ debut

By Josh Easby

After six years’ waiting for his chance to play Northern League football, goalkeeper Fraser Nicholls has finally made his debut in the competition.

Nicholls suffered a serious head injury during Cambridge FC’s preseason programme and was forced to miss the Reds’ return to the second division, with a broken cheek and eye socket requiring operations to fit four plates and insert 15 screws before he resumed training.

His patience paid off last weekend when he was in the Reds’ starting line-up for their 2-2 draw against Northland FC at John Kerkhof Park.

His opportunity followed an injury to Cambridge’s other first team goalkeeper, Patrick Steele, who has shown impressive form since signing from Matamata Swifts at the start of the season.

Injuries have plagued Cambridge’s goalkeeping ranks this season with the club’s goalkeeper coach Kim Brierley

also suffering a serious eye injury, a detached retina which has required two operations.

Despite their long journey to Cambridge (the Northland bus left at 6am), the visitors started the brightest and deservedly went ahead after only nine minutes.

Cambridge gradually got into the game and deservedly drew level late in the half when defender Daniel Clarkin got onto a loose ball in the box after a free kick put the Northland defence under pressure.

Northland had another good spell early in the second half and went 2-1 ahead after 63 minutes with the goal of the match, a controlled volley from 20 metres by Kyran Winterburn. For the rest of the match, Cambridge had most of the play and kept up the pressure for an equaliser.

It finally came when Elliot Cooper scored his first goal for Cambridge since signing from Takapuna, a well-taken finish in the 78th minute which gave Northland ‘keeper Shane

Stanners no chance. Both teams had opportunities to steal the win, but the rival coaches considered a draw the fair result.

The Reds are at home again this Saturday when Auckland’s Te Atatu visit a double header. The reserves’ game starts at 12.30pm followed by the first teams fixture at 3pm.

The Cambridge reserves beat Northland 4-0 to extend their lead at the top of the Lotto NRFL reserves competition. Andrew Taylor scored twice, taking his season’s tally to 11, with Adam Brady and Shaun Richardson providing the other goals.

The Cambridge women’s team moved through to the next round of the Waikato Women’s Cup with a comfortable 5-0 against Matamata Swifts. Chloe Zuppicich opened the scoring after 24 minutes with a neat header over the Swifts’ goalkeeper.

Leading goalscorers Astrid Howarth (2) and Rachel Hill (2) finished off the job for Cambridge who can earn promotion to the Waikato A division with a win or draw this Sunday against Waikato Unicol. The Hill Homes Player of the Day was Gemma Martin.

Cambridge’s Waikato A team were knocked out of the Waikato Cup, losing at home 3-2 to Claudelands Rovers B. Peter Buesnel and Mitchell Claridge scored for Cambridge.

The Waikato D2 team lost their first round Waikato Plate tie 5-4 in a thriller against Putaruru Rangers. Andrew Myers (2), Luke Masric and Rob Dixon

Goalkeeper Fraser Nicholls with his face protector. found the net for Cambridge while their fifth goal was a spectacular longrange own goal from a Putararu player.

Meanwhile, the club’s newlylaunched Future Reds programme is proving a success with young players.

Run in partnership with the Ricki Herbert Football Academy, the programme aims to help boys and girls aged 6-13 progressively develop their skills through extra sessions with qualified academy coaches.

Already, more than 110 youngsters have joined the Future Reds programme from the pool of more than 450 junior players registered with the club.

Pink Ribbon Month Pink Ribbon has serious message

May is Pink Ribbon Month, with Pink Breakfasts and other events raising money and awareness of breast cancer - the disease that kills more than 600 Kiwi women every year.

Money raised for the Breast Cancer Foundation, the organisation behind the Pink Ribbon brand, goes to three core strategies: Awareness and education; support; and research and medical.

And it seems that the breast-care message is getting through – the mortality rate from breast cancer has dropped 43 per cent over the past 23 years. Breast cancer is still the number one cancer for New Zealand women, Hamilton Radiology proudly supporting the Leamington Medical Centre and Cambridge Community

with around 3,000 diagnosed each year. There are around 25 men diagnosed each year as well. Of the more than 600 people dying of breast cancer each year, 70 per cent of them aged over 50. Contrary to popular belief, 90 to 95 per cent of these people will have had no history of breast cancer in their family – everyone needs to be vigilant.

Deaths have dropped by 27 per cent since the introduction of free mammograms for women 45 and over, with a 92 per cent chance of still being alive after 10 years if the cancer was detected by a regular mammogram, compared with 75 per cent where a lump is the first sign. And while it mainly affects women 50 or older, young women can get breast cancer, too, with 6 per cent occurring in women under 40.

The good news is that by supporting Pink Ribbon initiatives, the community can help support the Breast Cancer Foundation’s work in this area. Money raised by

They do this by providing early detection education, supporting those with breast cancer, funding research and medical grants, and providing advocacy for those affected by the disease. To date, donations have seen more than $4.6M distributed for breast cancer research and medical grants. They’ve also developed an app – mybc – to connect breast cancer sufferers to an online community where they can share their stories, ask questions and get support from a qualified breast nurse.

It pays to start talking about early childhood education (ECE) early, Plunket said, so you can think about the various options available and get your child on a waiting list in some cases.

Whether you are looking for part-time care, a full-time option or home-based care in your home or someone else’s, the first consideration will be what set-up will best suit your child’s needs and temperament.

Questions to ask when visiting a centre: Staff and size • How many children are cared for by each adult?

• Does each child have an adult who is mainly responsible for them?

• How many children go to the service, and what age range are they?

• What qualifications do the staff have?

What to expect in the early days Many children will take to a new care arrangement like the proverbial ducks to water, but not all kids (or parents) find the transition easy. Separation anxiety can affect some children and is a normal process that occurs when babies start to realise that things change.

Centres will often recommend short visits to begin with, where the parent stays to play in the new environment, building up to longer periods of time. An upset child on the parent’s departure is very often absolutely fine a minute later when they focus their attention on the next activity at hand. This information may help to assuage the parental guilt of driving away after your child has had a meltdown. You can also phone later to check they have settled – ECE staff are generally happy to provide this reassurance.

And remember it can take time to settle into any new arrangement, for parents and children alike.

about their experiences, make appointments to visit centres or meet with in-home carers, and do your homework.

It’s important that your child is happy, and that you can build up a good rapport with the people who will be looking after them.

There is no recommended age to start ECE, it really depends on what works for you and your situation.

If you are looking at introducing your child to ECE or daycare, Plunket does recommend waiting until your child is over six months as their immune system may cope better with the inevitable exposure to illness. Different centres have different policies for starting ages, so make sure you get all the information as you are narrowing down options.

We are proud of the care and education that we provide and have provided for tamariki and their whãnau in Cambridge and the surrounding areas for the last 22 years.

We recognise and respect each child as an individual, with their own interests, needs, and cultural backgrounds; supporting and encouraging them to be competent and confident learners.

• Who can collect your child?

STREET VIEW:

Sam Hewitt Health and education, you can’t argue that. From my point of view there’s not really much emphasis on business which is a bit of a concern, the economy I think has been quite strong with National in power.

Peter Rawlinson I’m glad to see it’s helping education and hospitals and things like that, they’re the main ones everybody worries about, so I think on average it was a reasonably good Budget.

This week we hit the street to ask people for their thoughts on the recent Budget announcements.

Amit Taneja Brenda King Housing, I’m definitely happy with The housing is good, we do need that… And let’s face it, if a little bit that. And strengthening the police more tax is going to help them do is good too. Overall I think it’s okay. what they’ve got to do, then fair enough.

Liam Hendren I don’t really have much of an opinion on it to be honest, I don’t really feel like it affects me a lot…

Things like the police funding are good for town, because we don’t have 24 hour policing.

Heather Workman I agree with education spending, we definitely need more classrooms and teachers. The America’s Cup spending is a bit over-excessive.

Winter’s arrived, but Thinking about food how to stay active?

It’s not always easy, but many New Zealanders do keep active in winter with some simple adjustments, according to research.

Exercise New Zealand chief executive Richard Beddie said indoor exercise facilities show a spike in winter months, both in usage and joining.

Richard Beddie

Beddie said, based on their data, 10 per cent more Kiwis join up to gyms and fitness facilities in winter to avoid lethargy and weight-gain.

“Our research shows popular winter activities include fitness group classes, along with the traditional exercise such as the weights and aerobic rooms for gyms and yoga, which continues to grow in popularity every year; it’s just amazing.

“Warming up is so much more important in winter to avoid injuries be it inside or out in the cold weather.

“My advice is for people to make the effort to get started at a facility that feels right for them as well as one that uses registered exercise professionals.

“We know more and more Kiwis want to stay fit and healthier in winter and already more than 500,000 New Zealanders just love individual exercise, which is part of a worldwide trend for exercise to be growing while structured sport is on the decline.

“Exercise is now the #1 sport in New Zealand with more than half a million participants and growing research confirms the health benefits of activity for every age,” Beddie concluded.

Submitted by Karapiro School Room 1 at Karapiro School have been very fortunate to have been doing the Food 4 Thought programme recently, working with Andy Kane, a nutritionist, to learn how to read food packaging labels so that they can identify everyday foods and occasional foods. They also spent some time learning about how much sugar can be found in a variety of drinks. An EOTC (Education Outside the Classroom) visit to Cambridge New World followed, as the

students put their label-reading skills into practice. A big ‘thank you’ to New World for accommodating us, and for the voucher they gave us to use when we plan and make our healthy shared lunch later in the term. ‘Thank you’, too, to all the parents who helped us, we couldn’t have done it without you! Through the Food 4 Thought programme, each child received a free a lunchbox, which the students used to make multiplication arrays in Mathematics, before handing them out to take home.

FRIDAY MAY 25, 2018

Chamber’s First XV to get cooking Young business people will be designing their own pizzas at Onyx on Tuesday, May 29, as part of the Cambridge Chamber of Commerce’s First XV Young Professionals program.

The First XV is a social networking group for younger business people in the first fifteen years of their career.

The First XV meets once a month for events such as wine tasting, kayaking, charity film nights, bubble soccer, poker night and more.

“It’s a great way to meet people” said founding member Alana MacKay. “I’ve made a lot of friends through the First XV. We’re a group of likeminded young business people. As

well as the social aspect, it’s a good support network and a way to make connections in Cambridge.”

Sponsored by Accounted4, and established in 2013, the First XV has members from a wide range of professions including small business owners, teachers, tradies, accountants, sports organisations, lawyers, medical professionals and more.

The Cambridge Chamber of Commerce First XV Young Networking Group is always ready to welcome new members.

Find out more at the First XV Cambridge Facebook page.

(Left to right) Franny McInnes from Breastmates, Jennifer Robinson from Lewis Lawyers, Liora Saad from The Little Acre, and Kimberly Scott from Cambridge Foot Clinic enjoy a First XV outing.

Lyceum House update

(Left to right) Natalie White from Magic Fingers, Amy Banks from Tag Business Services and First XV chair Sonya Walker from Rowing NZ putting their taste buds to the test at a wine tasting.

Submitted by Lyceum House There was a good turnout at the recent Lyceum House coffee morning, for our guest speaker, Muriel Tooley, from SeniorNet in Cambridge.

Seniornet is a community-based organization which has been operating in NZ since May 1992. It provides people aged 50+ with the opportunity to learn about communication and information technology tools in a friendly supportive environment.

The arrival of computers heralded a whole new language to master, as they continue to be an integral part of our lives. Seniornet caters for all levels from beginners to advanced.

They are located at 22A Taylor Street, Cambridge.

Muriel gave a most informative talk and shared some very useful tips for keeping safe online.

For more information on Seniornet phone 823 5136.

Ticket giveaway Great day for octogenarians to arts festival The Tauranga Arts Festival is on next weekend at the Baycourt Community & Art Centre, this year dubbed “Escape 2018”.

The little festival with big ideas will bring together Tauranga’s community and city atmosphere for a four-day festival of food, theatre, discussion, workshops, storytelling, music, poetry and so much more, over Queen’s Birthday weekend, June 1 – 4.

From French morning teas to comedy performances, cartoondrawing workshops to Maori cooking with a Michelin-starexperienced chef, there’s something for everybody at Escape 2018.

Cambridge News has a double pass to give away to the event. Just send your full name and contact number to: sophie@cambridgenews.nz by 9am on Monday, May 28.

A popular feature at Escape 2018 this year will be Monique Fiso, a Michelin-star-experienced New Zealand-born chef who is championing sophisticated food using Māori cooking techniques and native ingredients.

Submitted by the Cambridge Bridge Club A relaxing afternoon of bridge and high tea was enjoyed recently by many of the senior members of our club with their invited partners.

Although some of our octogenarian members were sadly unable to attend, those present were treated to a delicious afternoon tea of warm savouries and enticing pastries.

Beautifully organised by Vicki, the room was elegantly presented with floral decorations on each table, lovely table coverings, delightful china, an exquisite tea service, all completed by a lovely floral centre piece on the high table made by Helen Rose. Behind the scenes, Helen H with Margaret, Helen R, Gail and Lesley prepared and presented the seated members with delicious delicacies.

The afternoon’s bridge competition was won by Saty and Vicki sitting N/S, Ruth P and Melanie were second and Margaret and Beth third. Sitting E/W Julie and her partner were top, with Philippa and Pam second and Ruth V and Harry in third place.

I am sure I speak for everyone who was there, when I express our gratitude to all those who made this event possible, including Vicki’s husband, Grant and Michael who did the scoring.

We all had a wonderful time. Thank you so much.

Marie, Phyl and Gloria at the bridge and high tea.

Deadpool 2 is all that we anticipated and above. The action does not stop almost the entire movie, the new characters are great especially Cable and Domino. The humour as you expected is something without which the movie will not be the same, yet it is a distinctive feature for the character of Deadpool. The story is good and you can imagine some surprising people to appear in the movie, come and see for yourself. The effects are very good, the choice of music fits in great with the action scenes and the individual moments in the movie. Supporting roles do not lag behind and go for a lot of points. Interesting to say that one might think the best part of the movie could be Josh Brolin as Cable. You may wish to stay to the very end of the movie as there are some pretty good things waiting for you.

FRI: 1.15, 5.50PM - SAT: 10.55AM, 6.00PM (PG) SUN: 10.55AM, 3.20PM - MON/TUE: 1.15, 5.50PM FRI: 3.40PM SAT: 3.25PM (PG) MON/TUE: 3.40PM “It is a fun flick that will cater mainly to your female audience.” Allanah. When her husband suddenly dumps her, long time dedicated housewife Deanna turns regret into re-set by going back to college, landing in the same class and school as her daughter, who's not entirely sold on the idea. Plunging headlong into the campus experience, the increasingly outspoken Deanna (now Dee Rock) embraces freedom, fun, and frat boys on her own terms, finding her true self in a senior year no one ever expected. Funny and sweet, too, with a heart-warming message.

This original, offbeat comedy is delightfully portrayed. It’s so ridiculous that you just have to laugh – a very cleverly written script. It’s most enjoyable, with great shots of Paris.
