Girl Guide Power

By Megan Connolly

There was an air of excitement for five local girls who received their Queen’s Guide Medals for Girl Guides on Sunday afternoon.

Gemma Warrender, Tessa Smoothy, Grace Elliot, Nicola Edger and Angela White have been a part of the organisation since they were five years old so the achievement is many years in the making and means a lot to them.

The Queen’s Guide Medal is the highest award a Girl Guide can achieve.

“It’s a pretty big deal, it’s really exciting,” seventeen-year-old Nicola says.

Local girls achieve highest medal in Girl Guides

By Megan Connolly

Continued from page 1.

The Queen’s Guide Medal is based on the concepts of personal challenge and participation and is split into five sections: service in guiding, outdoor challenges, personal skill development, community action and residential where the girls spend a night with new people.

All five of the girls started as pippins at five years old, progressed to Brownies, on to Guides and are finishing up their journeys as Rangers.

Along the way, they have obtained all sorts of badges in Pippins and Brownies, reaching Brownie’s highest award of Challenge 9.

Through their time in Guides, they achieved many badges like the Senior Guide award and the Aotearoa award, which includes organising and running their own camp.

But the Queen’s Guide Award is the highest achievement, and

doing it together as long-time friends makes it unique.

“I know I will be friends with these guys for life,” Girl Guide, Angela White says.

Awa r d r e c ipie nt Te ss a Smoothy says she has learned a lot of valuable skills through the process of getting the medal like determination, time management, commitment and leadership skills.

“It’s important because it’s been good for my self-improvement and all of the memories I’ve made along the way,” Tessa says.

Girl Guide Nicola Edger, adds, “It’s helped me build confidence and get me out of my comfort zone.”

Gemma says: “I’ve grown into who I am and we’re all going to be best friends forever.”

Shona White, an organiser,

says they have put a lot of hard work into achieving this award and have learnt many skills along the way. They have become better girls in self-confidence and leadership too.

The girls will be attending the vice-regal reception at Government House next month to receive the official award from the Governor General on behalf of the Queen.

adult helpers.

“Kids were engaged and enthusiastic. It was great,” organiser Asha Scott says.

The final touches were added by adding two plastic syringes connected with a small clear tube which helped pump the red water through, becoming their very own homemade hydraulic system.

Ke en r ob ot ent hu sia st Antariksh Anand says his favourite part of the process was adding the hydraulics to the arm, excited by the fact he could do it himself.

If you would like to make your own hydraulic powered robotic arm from cardboard, instructions can be found online.

Did you know you can make a working hydraulic arm out of some cardboard, hot glue and a plastic syringe?

Keen science youngsters did exactly that last Thursday morning, working with Reece Geursen from Hutt City Science and community hub kaitiaki, Asha Scott.

It was a completely hands-on project where the youngsters started by cutting out the templates on the cardboard, drilling or poking holes through the cardboard working carefully to makes sure they lined up, then put it all together with some hot glue and a bit of help from the

Antariksh Anand was among several youngsters who delved into the world of science to make their own functioning robot arm out of card board, equipped with homemade hydraulics.

Locals achieve excellence at Maori Health Awards Local residents were among those awarded for outstanding contributions to community health recently for Hutt Valley DHB’s first ever Matariki Achieving Excellence in Maori Health Awards.

The awards, led by Hutt Valley DHB’s Maori Health Team, celebrated everything people do to improve whanau experience and eliminate health inequities for Maori or develop the Maori workforce.

The awards were timed to coincide with the rising of the Matariki marking the Maori New Year.

There were two Te Mana Whakahaere (supreme awards) announced on the night, which recognized the recipient’s ability to demonstrate excellence across Te Ao Maori and Te Ao Hurihuri.

The first Te Mana Whakahaere went to Mere Te Paki from Hutt Union and Community Health Services.

Hutt Valley DHB Maori health director Kerry Dougall says local Mere Te Paki “exemplified Maori ways of being, and works tirelessly to make a difference for the clients and whanau she serves” “As a community health worker, she is highly valued for her mahi, her professionalism and the awhi and manaaki she gives to her clients and their whanau.

“She is respected by her colleagues, by the general practices, and by the staff of the many organisations and agencies she works with.”

The other Te Mana Whakahaere winner was the Tu Kotahi Maori Asthma and Research Trust, which improves the lives of those living with asthma and other respiratory conditions through improved understanding of respiratory illnesses,

“Tu Kotahi excelled at working alongside whanau using the values and principles of a Whanau Ora model of care,” Kerry says.

There were 45 nominations in five categories with each category being named after one of the stars of Matariki.

The awards were part of Hutt Valley DHB’s plan to achieve equity for Maori health within nine years, which is a key focus of the DHB’s Maori Health Strategy Te Pae Amorangi being launched on July 17.

Kerry says the awards were part of a bigger picture aimed at celebrating the outstanding

commitment and contribution of those working within the community, DHB and wider health networks.

“Each of the finalists demonstrated a high calibre of Maori success and accomplishment in making positive outcomes in the lives of whanau and our community,” she says.

Floyd the dog helps to teach animal safety

By Megan Connolly

There is something about dogs that bring out a bit of love in everyone.

And that can easily be said for eight-year-old golden retriever Floyd who visited the Community Hub Library last Thursday afternoon for story time and animal safety talk.

Going around to different schools and community groups with owner Julie Watson and Hutt City animal patrol officer Virginia Van Dooren is Floyd’s day job.

Virginia teaches youngsters, like the ones gathered to see Floyd last week, about dog safety and bite prevention.

An important lesson Virginia teaches, which was repeated back to her with great enthusiasm, is ‘if a dog is on its own, leave it alone’.

“It’s important to always be calm around a dog,” Virginia

says to the youngsters.

“It’s important to raise awareness.

“Eighty per cent of people are bitten because of the victim’s response to the dog.

“Half of the kids get bitten because of how they react.”

Floyd has been working with Virginia for two years now and you could say he’s a natural and used to the attention.

If Floyd looks familiar to you, that might be because two years ago Floyd was diagnosed with cancer and, because he is loved by many through his job, a givealittle page was started to help fund his major surgeries and chemotherapy.

His owner Julie is very happy to say Floyd has been in remission for two years.

At the end everyone got to have their own special cuddle of Floyd – but don’t worry, they asked for permission first.

Price: $1 per card per game Minimum $20 for 20x games

Longtime local resident Leanne Smith recently won a prize from New Zealand Football for her dedication and time spent volunteering for the local Wainuiomata Football (soccer) Club.

“It was a very big surprise, it blew me away,” Leanne says.

“But you don’t do it for the rewards. You do it for the club and to see the smiles on the kid’s faces.”

Leanne has been helping out at the club for over 15 years but there is something special that just keeps her coming back.

What sets the local club apart from the rest is the way the club bands together and supports one another, she adds.

“It’s a big family club.

“I like to call them my extended family.”

Leanne has known some of younger players all of their life.

“It’s so great knowing you’re cheering on someone who you used to see in a pram,” Leanne laughs.

Many players can start their careers in Wainuiomata but then move away, yet players always come back, “They come and finish their football careers which is why I love the club. It’s the game and the people.”

Leanne herself has also been a big football player over the years, having only just “retired” a couple of years ago, she says.

“I always end up putting my

boots back on when we’re players short.”

Her husband, Adam Smith, is a born and bred local and has also been hugely involved with the

club over the years, coaching the women’s team for 10 years.

“I still love the game but it’s harder to chase 15-year-olds around the field now,” she laughs.

Jolly festivities in Homedale

By Megan Connolly

It may not have been snowing like all of the Christmas movies but it was a cool evening at Homedale Village for the first ever Midwinter Christmas party on Saturday night.

It felt like the holidays with glittering fairy lights, a cozy cafe, and wistful music playing as locals explored the arts and crafts.

“It was really lovely,” Love Wainuiomata organiser, Esther King says.

“It was a mixture of people who have just

moved to the village and people who have lived there forever.

“People were really excited to see the Village having a revival.”

The whole atmosphere had a “really nice feeling” and it is an event that will be done again in the future.

Love Wainuiomata would like to say thank you for the support from all of the businesses and everyone who attended.

“We really appreciate the support of everyone coming along and people enjoyWhat goes better with fairy lights and Christmas spirit than a sausage sizzle? Tennis ing themselves,” Esther says.

Question: What can we do to improve New Zealand’s mental health?

Allen Bell “We haven’t paid enough attention to in NZ. We’ve been the ambulance at the bottom of the hill instead of the top. We need more facilities for people to go to be together and get help.”

Barry Paget “Social groups to get people together. You can get quite lonely so something to help people get out and around.”

Gary Morrissey “More social clubs and places like the Menz Shed where it gets people out of the house.”

Thanks for helping Wade get to Japan Local year 12 student Wade Kernachan has been fundraising for his trip to Japan with regular sausage sizzles for over a month.

Wade would like to say a huge thank you to Bruce and the team at Creative Meats for letting them have many successful sausage sizzles outside his shop.

“A big thank you to the com-

munity for supporting the sausage sizzle,” a family member says.

“A big thank you to Porirua RSA and Wainuiomata Lions who gave Wade grants towards his trip.

“Also to Wainuiomata High School for providing this awesome opportunity and to friends and family for their support of donations and gifts.”

Julianna Barber “I think investing in more facilities that can help people and discussing it more will help.”

Lee Dawson “The health system is what keeps a country going. Health and education, it’s a part of what will help our country.”

Xavia McLean “Having phone lines are good but now there is more advertising about it so people who need help know about it and are noticing it.”

Local MenzShed a place of Positive changes coming for companionship for retired men local doctor shortage “We reach out to you all in our Wainuiomata community to let you know that we still have a shortage of doctors” explains Practice Manager, Regan Smith.

Regan says “The doctor shortage has a huge impact on our patients and staff creating difficulty for all concerned.”

“But we do have great news to share. In September and October we have two new doctors joining our team. We also have another Practice Nurse starting at Whai Oranga in late July and final year dental students from ŌOtago University are coming back in September.”

“However, we’re experiencing problems with patients who do not attend their appointments. Please, if you no longer need to visit us, just phone and let us know.

“Every day we have patients who desperately want and need an appointment. If you don’t want yours, help us to help them. Your assistance in this would make for efficient

Meeting once a week on Monday mornings from 10am, the Wainuiomata MenzShed is a haven for older men to talk, reminisce about the good old days and maybe even do some projects.

Founding member and secretary Robbie Hinde says that often many people, especially widowers, can become quite lonely if they are sitting at home but the club aims to bring men together.

Robbie helped to set up the local MenzShed in 2010 and it is one of

127 clubs around the country.

But what this local MenzShed focuses on is unique.

While there is a workshop for men to tinker in, for many the reason they come along, is for the social aspect of getting together and having a chat.

“If someone is retired they can come along and socialise,” Robbie says.

They’ve got all the classics covered from a pool table and dart board to a model railway and a light lunch.

Currently, there are around 16

members attending but Robbie would really like to encourage new members, especially those who are retired with some time on their hands.

“If you’re a retired man and you’ve stopped working, you need a hobby or an interest. You can come here and socialise with men your own age,” Robbie says.

Members only pay $3 a week plus an extra $2 for lunch.

If you would like to come along or know more information, contact Robbie on 0275118330 or robbie.hinde@gmail.com.

scheduling of our doctors time.”

Our repeat prescriptions are now processed on a 48hour turnaround.

We are encouraging patients to phone us a least one week before medications are due to run out, so we can have time to prepare those prescriptions” Regan explains.

“Our patients can make appointments either by phoning us directly or alternatively by signing up for ‘ManageMyHealth’, it’s easy. Visit our receptionists to get started.”

With ‘ManageMyHealth’ you can check your lab results and get your prescriptions. Soon patients will be able to fully book appointments online as well.” explains Regan.

Regan says “From the heart to you all in our Wainuiomata community thank you for your patience. With co-operation between patients and practice staff difficulties can be managed until our new doctors arrive.

OUT& about Wicked Wheels Wows Wainuiomata PHOTOS: Supplied

Beaming smiles were on show at Wicked Wheels when people of all ages on bikes, trikes and scooters of every kind took over Anzac Way and Queen Street Reserve to enjoy some fun on Saturday July 13.

Organised by Love Wainuiomata and supported by Healthy Families Lower Hutt, Wainuiomata Sportsville and Hutt City Council, Wicked Wheels was an opportunity to bring people together in the heart of our community.

“It was awesome bringing our Queen Street Reserve area to life as a happy community space with kids and whanau having fun together including

riding, playing table tennis, and even trying out the new swings,” says Esther King from Love Wainuiomata.

“A big goal for our community is creating a vibrant Queen Street where everyone feels welcome, so we’ll be doing a lot more events and pop-ups like this so all ages can feel connected in our town centre.”

Ma rk Shan ks from the Healthy Families Lower Hutt team says “Blocking off Anzac Way and the car parks around the reserve provided the perfect environment for children of all ages to try out new tricks and skills on the Bike Rodeo.”

Devon and Logan Jones spotted the event when out with their grandparents, jumping on bikes they took on the Bike Rodeo and surprised themselves with what they could achieve on two wheels.

“Doing a ‘big as’ jump off a ramp” was Logan’s favourite part of the event.

Devon’s was “Proud that I challenged myself on the course”.

Hector tried out his skills on the bike rodeo and thought the ramps were “mean fun”.

L ove Wa i nu io m a t a i s already planning the next Wicked Wheels event for Saturday October 12.

The real deal: no toy tools for Build and Play

By Megan Connolly

Youngsters tried something a little bit different last week when the Build and Play trailer was set up outside the Community Hub. With all the wood and tools on offer, they could build or create anything their heart desired, the only limitation being their own imagination.

The Build and Play offered children opportunities for free, creative (and occasionally risky) play over five days last week.

The trailer load is full of tools including saws, hammers, and hand drills, and materials they can use: timber, PVC pipes, tennis balls, and recycled items.

Once they’d finished their masterpiece, youngsters were able to take it home.

It's hammer time! Hohepa and Mere Mepham get stuck into the Build and Play trailer activities.

And many bullets can be shot.

The blunderbuss was slow they say.

But now a gun can fire a spray.

Made for war with death the score.

SPORT Sports talk

11

with Jacob Page

So close, too close it hurts This loss is going to take some time.

The Black Caps loss in the World Cup final will have Kiwis cringing over their drinks for years to come.

To be honest, I fell asleep by the 30th over, not through lack of interest, just self preservation.

We had moments where we looked like winners and losers in the match and even just in the Super Over alone.

Facts remain that with three

runs off two balls required, New Zealand should have found a way to win the game outright.

I’m comfortable in saying that England’s win feels a bit hollow in the fact that both teams scored 15 runs in that Super Over but for a superior boundary rule sees them victorious.

Granted, my team lost, but the rule seems a little weak for a team to win or lose the most important game of their lives.

The lack of intent New Zealand

showed with the bat was the most frustrating thing.

Winning the toss and batting was the most definitive thing they did all day.

No batsman took it to the English attack and tried to make themselves a national hero.

However, call it raw bitterness of the minutes after the game, no team should lose a final on a sub-standard rule.

The players deserve a definitive winner after six weeks of the

competition.

Play another Super Over, I want a definitive knock out victory, not a shady win on points.

My biggest fear is that I’ll never see New Zealand win the World Cup. They can’t get any closer.

The saying is, it’s only a game and it’s true. In the grand scheme of life, far worse things happen, but this one is entitled to sting for a while.

I feel for Martin Guptill who

will unfairly be saddled with a large chunk of the blame.

Yes, with the exception of one brilliant run out, he was a passenger all tournament but he did his best with that final delivery and hopefully in time, he will be forgiven and won’t be defined by this horror tournament for him.

This is a terrible way to lose anything.

Congratulations to the English all the same. It means as much to them as it would have for us.

Ulalei to hold annual fundraiser

By Toli Sagaga

To keep the club going, Ulalei is holding a Bingo Fun Night on Friday 26 July 2019 from 7pm – 9pm at the Wainuiomata Rugby League Rooms, 39 Fitzherbert Road, Wainuiomata to raise annual funds for the club.

All are invited to attend and support the only netball club based in Wainuiomata.

Cost for the bingo evening is a minimum $20 for 20 games.

Wins for Ulalei Fuesina and Ulalei Pua: Senior 1 Ulalei Fuesina had a good win against Upper Hutt Rams 25-23 on Saturday July 13 2019 at Walter Nash Centre.

Team Fuesina, nicknamed the Young Guns, had a steady start adjusting to the new combinations.

The score was even 5-5 at the end of the first quarter.

During the second quarter, UHRams edged ahead to 11-10 at half time.

Some tactical positional changes from coach Lahraine Sagaga introduced Tiana Weepu into the shooting circle with Crystal Ruatara, and Brook Cowpland moving into the Wing Defence to help out the defence.

The changes obviously proved favourable with some impressive defensive tips and intercepts popping up by mid-courter Tahaani Hepi.

Defenders Kathrine Taitu-

ave and Cowpland allowed shooters Ruatara and Weepu to convert at the other end.

The Young Guns took the lead at the end of the championship third quarter 17-16.

It was still anyone’s game heading into the final quarter with each team scoring goal for goal.

When one team broke a pass, the other team would break the next pass. But the Young Guns maintained their composure against the experienced Rams to squeeze out a win 25-23.

Captain of the day, Tahaani Hepi says: “We were very pleased with the win and a huge thanks to Leilani Va’a and Toli for helping us out today.”

Other results: Premier 1 Ulalei Pua continue to dominate the Premier 1 division with a resounding win against Convent Old Girls 1: 75-38.

Ulalei Aute lost to NNCU 1: 74-59 Senior 2 Ulalei Moso’oi lost to UHMU 8: 40-27 Draw for Saturday July 20 2019 at Walter Nash Centre Premier 1 Aute v NNCU 2 at 12:00pm Pua v at UHMU 1 at 10:30am Senior 1 Fuesina v UHMU 5 at 1:00pm Senior 2 Moso’oi v UHMU 8 at Ulalei Fuesina Centre Tahaani Hepi steadies for a 3:00pm centre pass during a game with the UHRams.

Local harriers take home trophies Wainuiomata Harriers have been busy winning trophies and medals at several recent cross country races.

The latest event, the North Island Cross Country Championships held in Taupo, saw five harriers club members, including the youngest and oldest members, compete very well.

Local runner Don McGowan secured third place in the masters’ men over 65 age group.

Another successful event for the club was the annual Sanders and Gough races.

This is contested between Hutt Valley and Wairarapa clubs.

It was Wainuiomata Harriers turn to host the event, which was held on another fantastic day in Wainuiomata recently.

This year’s course was based around the Harriers’ clubrooms on Richard Prouse Park and included several bush tracks.

With a turnout of over 100

runners and walkers from all clubs involved, it was with even greater satisfaction that Wainuiomata Harriers took out two of the races and various individual placings, a spokesperson says.

Of note was Cameron Forsyth and Hanna Hoffman winning the Robbie Shield in the under 17-year-old race, and Shelley Tietjens and Nikki Braniff-Jones winning the Burns Cup in the senior and masters women’s race.

There were also individual placings from Tore Martin, Nikki Braniff-Jones, Shelley Tietjens, Georgina Cox, Cameron Forsyth and Joel Carman.

Wainuiomata Results: Walker’s trophy, 4km, 2nd team: 2nd Tore Martin; 9th Robyn Small; 13th Susanna Hayes; 19th Barbara Coley Children under 11, 1.2km, 3rd team: 12th Luke Hayes; 20th Penny Houlihan; 22nd Noah
