Let’s talk about competitiveness in junior sport. “There’s worse than over the wa o k u l o d ge @nothing g m a i l .co m top competitive behaviour,” Open for Dinner says one group. “I can't stand Thurs, Fri & Sat from 5:30pm how they’re trying to take Breakfast/Lunch 7 Days competitiveness out of kids’ sport,” says another, adding Open 7 Days for good measure that “it’s a Breakfast competitive world out there Lunch & Dinner and kids need to learn that”.

Open 9am - 7pm Wed - Sunday Closed Mon-Tues
It’s taken me a while but I realised recently that people are using the word ‘competitive’ to mean two different things. One side of the debate sees ugly supporter behaviour or coaches shouting at their team and they want to see less competitive behaviour – while the other side of the debate hears the call for less competitiveness and worries that they’re trying to make the kids take it easy on the field. It’s no wonder these debates never seem to get resolved. Unless you’re John Dybvig, I think most people are turned off by adults ranting at kids on the sideline. So that’s probably one thing we can all agree with. I think we can all agree, too, that if a child wants to play their heart out and give it everything on the field then that’s fine. It’s important to know that despite fears from the pro-competitiveness camp no one is actually trying to stop this from happening. So, aside from the obvious sideline behaviour, what people like
New Zealand Football are trying to prevent is adults pressuring kids to win in order to satisfy their own competitive urges, pressure that can be applied with a quiet word or even a look – not just by shouting. Given that men like to think we’re the less emotional of the sexes it’s ironic that we give in to our emotions when we’re on the sideline. We expect our kids to match those emotions, too, but we forget that adult-strength competitive urges are not appropriate for children – especially younger ones. I don’t think we’re always aware that we’re responding emotionally but if we apply a bit of logic it seems pretty clear that pressurising children is a poor way to make them perform. No one plays well with someone looking over their shoulder, but kids especially don’t play well when they’re worried about upsetting an adult – and no one learns sport very quickly if they’re too scared to take risks either. The discovery that children were learning soccer skills better by playing on the street when no adults were around has led to serious changes to coaching systems around the world. Rinus Michels, the FIFA Coach of the Century, has extolled the virtues of street soccer saying that “it is the most natural education system that can be found”. So it’s pretty clear these days; the evidence is in: We should give up on trying to make the kids meet our expectations, whether it’s around competitiveness or something else that we’re focused on, and just let the kids play.

Young entrepreneur’s ‘dreaming big’ as online venture takes off
S
Georgia in her office in front of art work created by her father, local steel artist Chris Meek.
he’s recently launched New Zealand’s first babysitting app, has hundreds of clients in her niche business – and she’s only 23.
But Raglan born-and-bred Georgia Meek insists her venture, The Babysitters Club, is still in its infancy. “I’m dreaming big,” she told the Chronicle from Mt Maunganui, where she’s lived a few years now. “I want to make The Babysitters Club like an Airbnb or Uber.” Already her premium babysitting service operates throughout the Auckland, Wellington and Bay of Plenty regions. “That’s over 400 parents across the country,” she says of her current clientele. To meet the needs of those parents there are 170 sitters to call on – who’ve all been police-checked, reference-checked and interviewed by Georgia herself via Skype or FaceTime.
Unsurprisingly Georgia is “constantly busy” matching parents to babysitters, babysitters to children and checking back with families that her systems and strategies are working. It’s the kind of service that today’s busy working parents can rely on at the push of a button, she says – the aim always to find an interactive, trustworthy and experienced sitter who will have fun with the kids as well. “I want to change the stereotype,” says this ambitious teacher-turned-director of her own business. Georgia’s success story goes back to 2013 when she was in the second year of her primary school teaching degree at Waikato University, although she’d transferred by then to the Windermere campus at Tauranga. Looking for a connection with the east coast community and wanting more experience with children, Georgia enlisted
the help of a friend or two and started up a babysitters club. “But the way we operated was completely different to how it is now,” she explains. “We didn’t get paid, we just got first priority on all jobs.” After a year off on her big OE – based in London, au pairing courtesy of an early babysitting contact – Georgia returned to complete her degree, determined to create a paying babysitters club too. “I wanted to make it work,” she says. “It was what I loved doing.” Then she got what she describes as an “amazing” opportunity through ‘Project Ignite’, a summer start-up scholarship which allowed Georgia to grow her innovative business idea with a cash injection and some intensive mentoring. The business that many had told her had no future was pulled to pieces and restructured, she says, and is now well on the way to becoming sustainable. Georgia credits her success to the mentoring programme, which put her in touch with two “well-connected” business people in Tauranga, Jo Allum and Jodi Tong. Of her early attempts at making a business out of babysitting, Georgia reflects: “We didn’t have our margins right, didn’t know how to make it sustainable and pretty much offered our services for free.” Now with the first year of the revamped babysitters club well behind her – working on the business while nannying 12 hours per week to get by – Georgia is confident her systems are in place, the pricing structure works and she can assure people they get what they pay for. Getting the babysitting app up and running in February was a “huge job”, she adds, but “quite exciting” all the same. And now there’s potential investors knocking at the door. The advantage of the app to the service is that it’s automated, meaning parents can create a profile then do everything themselves from selecting a sitter to making payments. Website bookings however rely on Georgia organising it all herself every time. Meantime getting the website and the app integrated is the next step in her business plan. Word of mouth has been crucial to expanding the business, Georgia says, as have social media platforms like Facebook. She also acknowledges the help along the way of various business mentors and another businessman who found her some premises for free just five minutes walk from her home. It’s “incredible” what technology and a niche market allow you to do from a tiny office, she marvels. Edith Symes

what suspiciously looks like a curry bowl on the table. Satnam’s parents, who moved to New Zealand nearly 30 years ago and live in Auckland, come from Punjab, which “is in the north or the east, you will have to google it”. According to Google, Punjab is a state in the north of India. His father, Tara Singh, and mother, Shaminder Kaur, import the beer Vailima from Samoa. “If you are Punjab and you are a man you are a Singh, if you are a woman you are Kaur,” explains Satnam their different surnames. He says his mum once made some chicken curry for Duckas Tucka, the food caravan parked up in the Four Square car park, and it was a great hit. People in Raglan want some authentic Indian food, “something that is fresh”, and he will be stocking “Indian spices and stuff” in the supermarket come July. On the Friday, Shaminder will start cooking chickpea curry, chicken curry and Indian rice in the apartment at 10am. “A few people are coming to help,” says Satnam. “My wife will be there.” Food is not the only Indian experience for Raglan tomorrow night. There will also a stall where you can buy Indian jewellery or get a henna tattoo. It all kicks off at 7.30pm and runs until 9pm. Satnam has a couple of pieces of advice for his guests to help things run smoothly. Don’t park on Bankart St, it will be rammed – or, better yet, walk down. “You will probably need to after eating all the food that will be put on.” Also, if you can, bring a plastic chair to sit on. Showers are forecast but Satnam is hoping for fine weather. “We will make a call in the morning.” Keep an eye out on the Facebook Raglan Notice Board page in case he has to reschedule. Inger Vos
About 500 people have taken him up on his offer of an Indian meal tomorrow night at the car park of the supermarket, and he shrugs off the large figure saying he was expecting about that many in a community of Raglan’s size. His mum is cooking. “We’re used to it, when we have functions and stuff. “When I had my wedding, Mum did the cooking.” In case you are wondering, his “was a love marriage”, and about 750-780 guests attended the wedding. Satnam, who admits he did have to convince his mother to cook, is holding the free Indian dinner/cultural experience to give back to the community and to share the vibrant culture of his family.
“It gives us a chance to tell a bit about us, where we come from.” The 25-year-old says he’s found the community to be “really helpful, friendly, made us feel welcome”, since he arrived in July. He likes that everyone knows everyone. “I like how when you walk up the main street you have a yarn with everyone.” He’s attempted to surf but hasn’t the time to go out. “A lot of people have been asking me ‘do you eat curry’, ‘do you know how to make curry’,” says Satnam, who was born and raised in New Zealand but is proud of his roots. Yes, he does eat curry “but not all the time”. His favourite is chicken, and he doesn’t cook! The air in the apartment above the supermarket where Satnam lives is thick with the sweet smell of incense and there is
Number of submissions on wastewater programme ‘disappointing’
W
aikato District Council received just 459 submissions from 11,000 affected ratepayers regarding proposed changes to wastewater services in the Annual Plan consultation document. Ngaruawahia residents and ratepayers sent in the most submissions, followed by residents and ratepayers in Raglan, then Tuakau, Huntly and Pokeno. The council decided to consult ratepayers about improving its wastewater services after three sewage spills in four months in Raglan last year closed the harbour. At the time, the Raglan community was quite vocal about wanting a no-spill policy regarding wastewater and demanded better services – something that hasn’t translated into submissions. Raglan Community Board chairman Bob MacLeod says he’s disappointed in the low number of submissions as he thought there had been good engagement with residents about the proposed options of works to upgrade the wastewater system. “Unless they think Bob and (Raglan Ward councillor) Lisa Thomson have got it under control, let them do it. We don’t know! “Is it the old adage of apathy? Look at the number of people who voted us in – I only have 600 and something friends out there!” The submission period for the proposed changes – ratepayers were asked to support
one of three options for an expanded programme of works – closed on Monday last week. The submissions ran heavily in favour of option and one and two, at nearly 45 per cent for each. Option one, the cheaper option for ratepayers, is aimed at mitigating key overflow risks and separating wastewater operations in line with Ministry of Health best practice guidelines. Under this option, targeted wastewater rates in Raglan would rise by $112. Option two includes the preparation of long term plans to protect waterways and environmentally sensitive areas. This option would add $144 to the 2017-18 targeted rate in Raglan. Mayor Allan Sanson says he is disappointed but not surprised by the number of submissions. “We put in a huge amount of effort and energy into this,” he says, but the number
is in line with what council usually gets in consultation for the Annual Plan. Mr Sanson says the council will have to make a decision based on 459 submissions, of which a majority of 50 per cent would mean just 225 ratepayers from a total out of 11,000 connections. “That’s what it always comes down.” He expects come August when everyone’s targeted rates go up then everyone will “go ballistic”. Submissions aside, Mr Sanson says Raglan was “in touch with this issue … they understand that when we get a spill it closes the harbour”. “I’m just disappointed that we can’t get people to engage.” The hearing of the submissions will be held on May 31. The council is expected to make a final decision on June 28. Inger Vos
Raglan teen gives university a basic lesson in recycling
Cody Stiles pictured with the 'bag tree' down at Vicotria University.
V
ictoria University may be renowned for its halls of learning but it’s taken a Raglan teen to teach staff and students there a thing or two about recycling. First-year design student Cody Stiles says he
really wanted to make Victoria a more receptive place for environmental projects. So he did, by getting a few like-minded students together and forming EnV – which stands for Environment Victoria. Now just outside a busy reception area there’s a stand of colourful “boomerang bags” made from recycled materials to replace plastic shopping bags, with a sign reading: ‘Take when needed, return when done.’ It felt “pretty special” getting this first recycling project under way so soon into the university academic year, 18-year-old Cody told the Chronicle. “I’ve been in Raglan my whole life so it (living sustainably) has rubbed off on me.” Cody went to both Raglan Kindergarten and the local area school followed by Fraser High. He reckons staff at reception have been really supportive of the new stand or “bag tree” at their doors, where it’s easy to grab and return the bags. So far the system seems to be working well, he adds. EnV approached ‘Boomerang Bags’ – a national community-driven initiative tackling plastic pollution at grassroots level – to supply the bags, which were made from leftover material by volunteers in Wellington. A hundred bags were donated to kickstart the fledgling project. Edith Symes
Fundraiser dinner for Raglan Community House

W
ednesday night saw an amazing fundraiser for the Raglan Community House at Rock-It Kitchen on Wainui Rd. The whole cafe was packed with wonderful Raglan folk who wanted to support the work of the Raglan Community House and to say that Rock-It was rocking wouldn't be an exaggeration. The whole event was the brainchild of Rock-It chef, Sascha Phillips and she was wonderfully supported by her boss Sarah Kay and the huge generosity of all the staff who donated their time. The food was first class and everyone was treated to a drink on arrival, followed by a beautiful three course meal.
Julie Hanna conducted an auction of items and services given by the community with her usual verve and humour and had the crowd not only bidding and out bidding each other, but falling off their chairs laughing as they did it. The noise and good will of the crowd was a pleasure to see and as Mike Rarere, the Community House Manager commented; "It is wonderful to realise that the House is so highly valued by the community that people want to help out in this way and so good to see them having a great night out as they do it". Thank you to the many supporters and donors to this fantastic event. Paula Clements

o you want to give up smoking but find the withdrawals and breaking the habit are too difficult? There are many natural methods, supplements and herbs that can help you. I will share some recent success I had in helping a client, who had been a heavy smoker for 15 years, kick the habit.
His treatment protocol was: • He wanted to give up • Hypnotherapy • NAC or N-acetylcysteine. This nutrient has many uses but it’s helpful for giving up smoking because: 1. It can modulate neurotransmitters (brain chemicals), especially those

that play a role in addictions. In a recent trial, participants who used NAC experienced fewer withdrawals and a less rewarding experience on first cigarette. 2. It has powerful antioxidant properties, helping the liver detoxify the harmful chemicals that are found in tobacco. In the same trial, participants who used NAC showed a decrease in DNA damage. 3. It can help the lungs by breaking down mucous and assisting with removal. • Herbs to support the nervous system and help ease any associated anxiety. • Herbal tobacco to help with the habit of physically smoking. My patient used them initially when he really felt like actually smoking a cigarette but as the herbs are not addictive, he didn’t smoke as many and after a couple of weeks he stopped smoking them altogether.

Remember those who cannot remember On June 21, the shortest day, we remember those with dementia (memory loss). Although Raglan does not have a dementia support group, the Community Support Group has a preventative programme which looks at ways we can keep our brain functioning to the end of our days, through diet, exercise and healthy living. Alzheimer’s is the largest dementia group, though there are several other disabilities vulnerable to memory loss, such as strokes (vascular dementia), and Parkinson’s disease. In the past, memory loss was associated with the elderly, but today it is affecting a much younger age group and thought to be caused by a more sedentary lifestyle and unhealthy diet. Some people are more susceptible than others The chemicals in the farming and food chain, herbicides, pesticides, insecticides and additives, as well as chemicals used in the home and industry, may also contribute to dysfunctions in our physical and mental wellbeing. The abuse of recreational drugs and the overuse of pharmaceutical medicines can sometimes lead to hormone imbalances. Modern

Stay warm & dry this winter Snow is in the air and frost is on the ground! It’s time to rug up and take a close look at the insulation, moisture levels and curtains in your home. New Zealand homes are notoriously poorly insulated, for some reason we just haven’t built our homes for our chilly winters! Because of this, NZ has one of the highest rates of respiratory disease in the developed world! Cold damp homes are unhealthy homes! Although WEC no longer runs a curtain bank, we still want to help you stay warm this winter. Check out
the tips from XZW & below, visit the energy wise website or pop into our centre to learn more about energy efficiency and how to create a warm, healthy home. Curtain tips: Curtains are key to keeping warmth in. If there is a gap at the top, make sure the curtains are floor length or install a pelmat (like a hat or helmet for your curtains). There are lots of good tips online for making pelmats. As an interim option, you can stuff the gap with towels or blankets. If you’re installing curtains for the first time, get flat tracks that fit right onto the wall. • Line curtains with any second layer of fabric. Thermal backing is not enough. The second layer can be thermal fabric, cotton or polyester. • Open your curtains during the day to let the sun and warmth in, then close them before it gets dark Warm Winter Wishes from the Whaingaroa Environment Centre
Brrr it’s getting cold Whaingaroa!
Yes winter is here!! In these cold winter months keeping your home and your family warm is so important. Kaahu’s Nest is a great option if you are looking for affordable warm clothing, boots and shoes, jerseys, jackets or extra blankets and curtains. Here are some little helpers from Xtreme to keep you warm and dry: • Only heat the room that you are in. Try to keep the temperature between 18 and 21 degrees especially if you have babies, people with illnesses, or older people living in your home. • Dress warmly for bed and make sure your bedroom is warm enough - it is very important to stay warm during the night, make a rag blanket out of your old blankets. • Up to 20% of heating can be lost through draughts. Block up unused chimneys and stop draughts around doors and windows. You can hand make your own draught ‘snakes’ by stuffing old rugby socks or pantyhose with newspaper or cushion filling, Kaahu’s Nest can supply you with these items. • Open windows and curtains on sunny days, and close them when the sun goes down to trap heat in your home. Trim any trees that prevent sun entering your house (but if you are renting, remember to ask your landlord first!). • Try not to dry clothes indoors as this creates moisture in the air. Drying outside is free and the sunlight kills bacteria, making your clothes healthier for you and your family. Use a shed or garage if it is raining, construct a washing line, we have plenty of wire in the metal yard and timber and nails in the wood yard. You may even find a clothes rack at Kaahu’s Nest. • To reduce moisture caused by steam, always open a window when you are showering and when you are cooking on the stove top. Use pot lids to reduce the amount of steam escaping. Keep doors to bedrooms closed at these times as steam can make beds damp – remember to use your hand made ‘snake’ to block drafts coming from under your doors and keep heat in! • For those outdoor starry winter nights, make yourself a home-made brazier – there is plenty of material in the metal yard, use your imagination!

PLASTIC BAG FREE as of
Business Owner
PBFR Representative
plasticbagfreeraglan.nz
Plastic Bag Free Raglan is very pleased to announce the launch of the Business Accreditation Program. The program launched at the end of April and has seen over 16 businesses officially certified in the past three weeks. The program recognises the commitment our local businesses are making to both the environment and the community by removing plastic carry bags from the Raglan supply chain. In order for a business to qualify as a certified partner, they must not be providing single use plastic shopping bags. Please note that handleless plastic fruit & nut bags and small bags for your wrapped meat are not counted in this certification. The PBFR team developed a Business Support program and works closely with business owners to find a viable and sustainable solution for their business. Some shop owners have made the switch to compostable bags, while others have paper bags, boxes, reusable bags or a combination for you to choose from. The compostable bag can be reused like any other plastic shopping bag, but when you are finished it can be taken to Xtreme and composted in their hot compost system. If one of these compostable bags does blow out into the environment, because it is made from starch, when it breaks down it will not leave behind any toxic residue. Unlike plastic bags—which may not break down for at least 1000 years, and will leave behind nasty toxins wherever they lay. Although shops might have an alternative for you, we highly encourage and prefer for you to remember your reusable bag when heading out to shop. We would like to acknowledge the following businesses and recognise them as an official Plastic Bag Free Raglan - Pēke Kirihou Kore Whaingaroa Partner. We’re grateful for their commitment and support in the mission to become a plastic carry bag free town:
