Advertorial

New Zealand’s leading rally driver Hayden Paddon has revealed the look of his Hyundai i20 NZ Rally2 car at Pukekohe Park ahead of the Repco Rally New Zealand later this month.

Paddon and his all-Kiwi team of engineers, technicians and team management have recently returned from a successful European campaign which was wrapped up in Finland with third place in the WRC2 category.

“I think the WRC2 field for the event is very strong, with Kiwi and Australian competitors. You have Australian rally champion Harry Bates, then you throw in past NZ champion Ben Hunt and Supercars star Shane van Gisbergen. It’s going to be a nice battle to be a part of.”

Running under the Hyundai New Zealand Rally banner, Paddon and long-time codriver John Kennard are set to contest the WRC2 category of the 2022 FIA World Rally Championship which features 18 international drivers.

Lee Poolton is more used to digging holes than hitting golf balls into holes, but he couldn't refuse the challenge of driving a golf ball off the newly graded 13th tee last Thursday, up at the Raglan Golf Club.

"We are a small club, money is very tight so an offer such as this is of great benefit for us,"said Gordon.

Repco Rally New Zealand kicks off on September 29, concluding on October 2.

As the Government enacts the Climate Change Commission’s recommendations, delivers on Zero Carbon Act and the Emissions Reduction Plan, it is likely that further businesses will be required to act. This programme will assist organisations on the journey. Its point of difference is the sharing of resources, stories, workshops, community advisors and tailored onsite support.

The best treatment for ear mites is prevention. Preventative ear mite treatment such as Bravecto (lasts up to 3 months) and can be purchased over the counter. These products will also treat fleas and ticks.

That brown sticky discharge in your pets ears may be harbouring some little annoying critters called Otodectes Cynotis - a common ear mite found both in cats and dogs and a primary cause of otitis (inflammation in the ear). Otodectes Cynotis can also be found on the skin surface and only just visible to the naked eye as a tiny white speck moving around against a dark background. The picture provided is what the mite looks like under the microscope.

If your pet hasn’t had a flea/ tick/ mite treatment in the last 1-3 months come into the clinic to purchase your pets ear mite preventative treatment. ANEXA

The programme aims to prepare small organisations, charities, not for profit, Maori and iwi organisations and community groups on the climate change journey to reducing emissions. It includes onsite and online tailored, personal support to track emissions, create a sustainability framework/climate action plan with target setting. It also aims to improve performance, and shift to equity based practices, like honouring Te Tiriti and climate justice.

The Climate Response Programme

The Preview Exhibition will allow Raglan fans, and those further afield too, to do a bit of art buying ahead of the actual art trail, now firmly in the diary for Labour Weekend from 22-24 October 2022. Despite three postponements in two years, RAW is now full steam ahead in preparations for a knock-out 2022 event and promises to be better than ever after its two-year hiatus due to Covid.

from sculpture, painting, photography, metal work and encaustic to print making, illustration, pottery, weaving, textile art and designer jewellery.

The Preview Exhibition will be open every day from 30 September 2022 (including weekends) from 10am until 2pm until 24 October 2022 at the Old School. As artwork sells, it will continuously be replaced so it will maintain its freshness up until the event itself.

The pilot is being run by ECOES, Go Eco and Para Kore and is supported by Waikato Regional Council, Hamilton City Council, Waikato District Council and Trust Waikato.

Ear mites are highly contagious; if your pet has ear mites it would’ve picked them up from encountering another infected animal. Young animals or immune-compromised animals are more susceptible to ear mites; however, pets of any age can pick up mites. Luckily, Otodectes Cynotis is not contagious to Symptomshumans.

Pets presenting these symptoms are typically diagnosed with ear mites however, it’s best to carry out diagnostic procedures to correctly identify if it is Otodectes Cynotis causing your pets ear issues.

The Raglan Arts Weekend (RAW) festival kicks off next week with the opening of the Preview Exhibition at the Old School, giving fans an early look into this year’s creations and talent.

The organisers want to thank RAW’s financial supporters and sponsors: the three grant providers (Chartwell Trust, Waikato District Council Discretionary Events Fund, Waikato District Creative Communities NZ) as well as Tony Sly and other local business advertisers in the Raglan Arts Guide. Without these funds, the popular landmark event would not be remotely possible.

The severity and adverse impacts of climate change are becoming more prevalent, and the Climate Response Programme seeks to help organisations on the journey to taking action.

This is a unique and exciting opportunity to take part in the first free Climate Response Programme in Waikato, and Whaingaroa. Ten community climate advisors are undertaking training to deliver the pilot to up to 30 organisations.

RAW will be held over Labour Weekend 22-24 October 2022. Studios will be open 10am until 5pm.

• Head shaking

As the weather warms up your pets will be welcoming unwanted ecto-parasites; fleas, ticks, mites.. Ear mites!

Otodectes Cynotis live their entire life on the animal and once a fully mature adult, live up to 2 months continuously reproducing. The life cycle of Otodectes has 5 stages; the female adult mite lays eggs in the pets ear wax, the eggs turn into larvae and feed for 3-10days, the larvae then go through 2 juvenile stages; protonymph and then deutonymph; deutonymphs are gender neutral. The adult male then mates with the deutonymph where it then becomes a pregnant female or a male mite. The life cycle takes 3 weeks to complete, that is why veterinarians will prescribe a treatment that lasts as long as the life cycle.

The official RAW Preview Exhibition opens to the public this month on the 30 September 2022. “We’d love to see you down at the Old School to support our local artists and it’s a fantastic way to see what’s on offer over Labour Weekend, plan your art trail route, or even secure an exclusive RAW piece ahead of the show,” Nicky says. “You will also be able to pick up one of our Raglan Arts Guides which includes a trail map, as well as find out about any studio changes due to the two postponements,” she says.

It continues to attract top Raglan artists who want to connect with visitors, share new exploratory styles, and sell artwork which is especially developed for the 3- day weekend.“Thehigh standard of art attracts a loyal following of top art buyers from around the country, in addition to the hoardes of visitors seeking out a special piece or just wanting to be inspired,” says Nicky Brzeska, RAW Co-Ordinator. “Our event will be well worth the wait as artists have had an extended period to produce and cherry pick high quality work to exhibit. Lots of our artists have also been experimenting with new styles, providing a broader range of work to choose from,” she says.The 40 artists for 2022 include 11 new artists.

A bit nervous but we knew that we could get the job done How did the game play out ?

Pre-season fitness training started for 50 teammates in December last year, we continued 3x1.30 hours per week till the end of term 1, then 32 were selected for the 1st XV.

So a couple more years for you in the top squad. What do you hope to achieve moving forward?

What have been some of the highlights of the season?

Who should one get in touch with if they have questions about their project?

Who is it intended for?

We launched the RFC Community Fund in 2021 as a way to give back to our amazing local community. We'd been supporting a number of groups over the years but didn't have any formal structure or process around it, and wanted to open up our support wider to any group doing great mahi in the social or environmental space. Phenomenal local support one of the main reasons we've been able to grow this business from a garage side-hustle into a fully established factory, so we wanted to show our support in return for all the incredible initiatives going on in Whaingaroa Raglan.

I am in the Waikato U16 squad, we have a competition in October.Continue to develop my game as a halfback in year 12.

Raglan Food Co. launched their community fund as a way to give back to their community and the Chronicle caught up with Latesha from RFC to hear all about it.

The Chronicle caught up with Mitchell Swan who, at year 11, plays for Hamilton Boys

Send us an email: hello@raglanfoodco.com if you're not sure whether or not your project would be a fit. We would be happy to chat with you about the criteria.

Anyone who is doing mahi that makes a positive difference to social or environmental outcomes for our local community. It could be an individual, or an established community group or charity.

This Senior Girls team is the most successful football team Raglan Area School has produced and finished the main season unbeaten in division 2. There's a good atmosphere in the team, players get equal time on the pitch and they have the talent to compete with the first 11's from the big schools in Hamiltonexcept they play in a separate invite-only premier division.

When was the RFC Community fund set up and why is it an important initiative for RFC?

High 1st XV. Last weekend in Palmerston North they won the national final against Napier Boys High to secure the title of "The National 1st XV Champions 2022.”

The Raglan Area School Senior Girls Football squad had a good day out at the Waikato Secondary School 5-a-side competition on Saturday with both teams winning their respective groups.

Congratulations Mitch. Such a great result for you all and a great way to finish the season. How were you and the team feeling prior to this big final?

During the season training was 8 times a week

Saturday, game day.

Beating St Johns in the first round of the Chiefs Cup then winning the Chiefs Cup.

Hamilton Boys High School 1st XV won the New Zealand Secondary Schools rugby title in Palmerston North on September 11.

Napier scored the first try with the conversion early on in the game, we retaliate 10 minute before half, but we missed the kick. Napier then kick off and with a bad pass in our 22, Napier were on attack scoring 5 minutes before half time. Luckily they missed their kick making the half time score 12 to 5. Napier extended their lead to 15 with a penalty shot at goal with 10 minutes to go. We scored a clutch try to close the gap making it 12 to 15. Phase after phase of attack, then we’d knock the ball on. On our 40 meter line they’d spine it wide and our line defense was good - putting pressure on them until they fumbled the ball - we scooped it up and we got tackled 5 meters short but we keep it in the forwards drawing there defenders in, we then spun it wide to score on full time making the final score 17-15 to us.

3 mornings, 6-7.30am which involved the gym, shuttles and weights4afternoons 3.30-5.00pm we trained against the 2nd XV, we had skills sessions and team runs where we practiced set moves andFridaycalls.it’s a Captain run at lunchtime.

The Junior Girls put in a team to the 5-a-side competition too. They did well to come second in their competition, losing the finals in a dramatic penalty shoot-out and the Senior Boys were in the running but didn't quite make it to their final.

Double-win caps off unbeaten season

While some of our opponents entered just a single team of their best players to maximise their chance of victory we made sure everyone had a chance to play by putting two teams into the competition and they both won anyway!

My beloved nannies are my inspiration. Without them I would not be here. My kui Rangirara instilled in me the passion for my hapuu, iwi and marae. The importance of knowing the maatauranga and with it the mita (tribal dialect) of Waikato and Ngaati Tiipaa. In this project and of course the album Te Kaahu O Rangi I weave a tapestry of Waikato history, tribal sayings and even quotes from my great-grandmother in her fight for caretakership of our great awa.

Raglan Golf Club is providing many opportunities for people to try golf. We have a FREE Childrens School Holiday Golf Day for 9 years+ on October 11 as well as Junior Golf Coaching commencing on October 20th and running all of term 4.

Raglan Arts Film Festival Awards’ creatives can breathe a sigh of relief as the deadline for film submissions has been pushed to October. After a tough start to the year for school-aged filmmakers, RAFFA spokesperson Karla Rix-Trott says the decision was made to allow more time for their creativity to develop. “One of the great things about the RAFFAs is the amazing films we receive from the younger creatives in the community.

If you are a filmmaker entering a film for the RAFFAs contact 07 825 0023, info@raglanartscentre.co.nz, or check out facebook.com/ creativeraglanfilmfestival or www.raglanartscentre.co.nz for further info.

This year, Tamariki and Rangatahi entrants who get their films in by the due date of Monday 17 October, 2pm will go into a lucky prize draw for $100

"We played Ambrose golf, had some snacks and presented some prizes - so it was a relaxing afternoon. The mixed gender, mainly beginner players had technical and collegial support from club members as they played their match," said Robyn.

Important dates • Entry Form due - Monday 10 October, 2pm • Film submission due - Monday 17 October, 2pm • Red Carpet Night - Saturday 26 November

I’m so excited to bring TE KAAHU to Whāingaroa. I’ve performed before in the rohe for Soundsplash and adore this tāone. Also it’s very special to perform in Tainui as well! The show is on October 8 at The Yard. I’ll be bringing my band : backing vocals, electric, acoustic, bass and lapsteel guitars! Come along if you would love to be bathed in the nostalgic and healing sounds of yesteryear entirely in reo Maaori. I would loooovee to see you!

Tell us about any inspirations behind your new album.

One of the goals of the awards is to encourage upcoming filmmakers and we want to give them more time to create movie magic.” The RAFFA team have come up with a list of themes to inspire creativity but say there are no limits on the subject matter. “The only real limit is the filmmakers’ imaginations. We just wanted to help spark some creativity,” Karla says.

Raglan Golf Club's Fun Golf Day was exactly that and the beaming smiles definitely said it all! The Pairs Ambrose event was held last Saturday on the picturesque Raglan Golf Course. All 23 participants enjoyed the fun filled day organised by Robyn Aim.

‘Waikato’ is a love song for my ancestral awa. It honours her mana (spiritual power and authority) as an ancestress for our people and also kaitiaki. It includes verbatim koorero from my great-grandmother Mite showing the dependency our iwi has on Waikato and therefore how urgent it is for us to protect her mauri and oranga.

We are currently celebrating the 50th anniversary of te Petihana reo Māori –the Māori language petition. Have these movements influenced you and your music?

TE KAAHU honours the craft and skill of Māori songwriting and storytelling and is the brainchild of singer and songwriter Theia (Waikato-Tainui, Ngāti Tīpa). Theia is a fierce proponent of the revitalisation of Māori language and culture, and through TE KAAHU she pays tribute to her tūpuna wāhine. She also seeks to shine a light on the beauty and vulnerability in waiata Māori.

Many students from Te Mata have been brainstorming ideas for their films. I asked a couple of students why they wanted to make a film. A lot of students got inspired from the poster and thought it was a fun thing to do with friends. We also have a lot of talented students that love dancing and acting, one student even decided to make a film to overcome her stage fright.

The best part of the race was the waterslide, because it was really fun to slide on my leg. I liked getting paint all over my shoe because it made my shoe look way cooler. I dodged everyone throwing paint at me, apart from the ones I couldn't see. I would definitely love to do this again next year because it was very fun and guess what I didn’t even win. But that didn’t matter.

All the classes of Te Mata School have been focusing on sustainability and all students are putting in great contributions. Each class has a different focus, for instance Māngo students have been put into pairs/groups with different focus areas, while making them all have greater purposes; Haku, is bringing recycled products in from their houses and using them to reinvent many things. Whai has done 2 things for the school: clean up and record all the data, and bring items to make recycled toys. Kataaha, made many awesome toys and products from 100% recycled items.We hope this will inspire you to start recycling and looking after the environment.

It was one of the funnest days of my life because my body was completely covered in paint. My favourite part of the race was all the colours flying everywhere. The teachers made the cross country race more fun by putting in waterslides and by throwing chalk powder at our bodies. We were wearing white clothes because then the colours would be easier to see. I really wanted to win it but I didn't. That doesn’t matter though because it was still heaps of fun.

We were planting trees because it's good for the Peninsula and we go there to play. We had to bury the plants and put dirt in the holes.

After learning about DRS. ABCD we had a practice on ‘Little Anne’, (CPR dummies) and did CPR. It was so much fun and we learnt so much. We also learnt how to bandage someone’s limbs if they were bleeding. We would like to thank Alicia, St John in Schools, ASB and ACC for this great opportunity.

We were trudging our sloppy shoes through water most of the time and stepping over rocks of all different shapes and sizes.

So many people challenged themselves, even though they had fears of tight spaces and creepy crawlies.

Everyone was prepared for a cold experience, wearing thermal clothes and raincoats. Harry, from Raglan Rock, was continually informing us of the challenges we were about to face as we entered.

Our thanks to Lisa Thomson, Raglan Ward District Councillor, for attending and giving the game a go. In her opening address Lisa spoke to the special place the Bowling Club holds in Raglan's history and community and how the facility supports many groups that meet regularly.

A message from the Raglan Police:

“We liked the idea of an academy, yet felt that was too formal and, perhaps, too traditional. Laborartry is a good description, yet lacks one-word punch. After circling around many options, it hatched itself from the cauldron of our brainstorming.”Withanemphasis on multi-disciplinary, Brian says, the tutors have come through combinations of many years of both formal and personal learning, and have been active in melding various forms and mediums into finished works.

Beginning in October and run by local artists, the first programmes cover practical and experimental courses for both children and adults.

One thing we have noticed is, that Raglan Community pulls together and helps each other out. We would like to encourage anyone out there, keen on Neighbourhood Support, to contact Kathy Gilbert, who is Raglan Co-Ordinator for Neighbourhood Support. Contact details kathyg@xtra.co.nz
