Tute award finalist By Megan Connolly
Deputy principal of Wainuiomata Primary School, Tute Porter-Samuels, attended the Wellingtonian of the Year Awards last Thursday evening after being announced as a finalist in the education category in October. Tute has been working at the school for the past 12 years she has been the chair of New Zealand Education Institute (NZEI) Te Riu Roa Wellington and Wainuiomata branch for the past three years, speaking for NZEI’s Kua te Wa ‘it’s time’ campaign.

Tute misses out on major award - experience was great Continued from Page 1. Although she didn’t win the final award, Tute says she felt privileged to be among those nominated. Tute and her four children attended the ceremony together at Te Papa, which made the evening more special, she says. “It was so much fun getting dressed up and going along with them.” Tute says the most memorable moments of the evening were
hearing about the amazing things other people are doing in Wellington. “I wasn’t expecting anything because of the calibre of people nominated in my category. “I just felt privileged to be a part of it.” To be nominated felt like it was recognition of the work done through NZEI’s campaign for pay parity where she has been speaking about underfunding for early childhood, kindergar-
ten and primary school teachers and teacher aides. “I was pleased because it is recognition of all the hard work teachers have done over the last two years,” she says. “The award was less about me but more about the recognition of our campaign.” Although there has been some improvements for teachers following the campaign, there is still more work in education to be done, Tute adds.
“We have more to do with primary teachers, principals and around our learning support staff. “It really is time for our support staff to get paid better and time to lift them up.” Rata Street School principal Dave Appleyard was the winner of the education category. “He thoroughly deserves it,” Tute says.

Fernlea Primary School joined the teacher aides Fair’s Fair campaign last week by wearing black and white with pink scarves. The school has nine support staff working at the school, all of whom work for less than the living wage. Local MPs Ginny Andersen and Chris Bishop popped into the primary school on Monday morning to hear first hand how teacher aides’ lives are impacted by funding. “It is a very supportive area that needs more funding. It breaks my heart to see kids who need more support but don’t have the funding for it,” Chris says. Ginny also commented on how, in her youth, she worked as a teacher aide for a year and understood the difficulties they face each day. “It’s such a crucial job and some of the hardest workers,” she says. Shannon Braggins is one of the newest teacher aides to join the Fernlea team and is their union support staff representative. “We’re quite invisible. “Unfortunately, it is seen as a

‘mummy hobby’ job,” she says. “You don’t realise how hard the job is until you’re their shoes and see what it actually entails.
“It is all about the children. We need to support children which means more support for their families.” Despite the struggles involv-
ing fair pay, the environment is a great place to work in. Teacher aides cover both individual student and group needs.

Homedale market Arakura Primary School teacher aides held a morning of action to support the teacher aide Fair's Fair campaign last Wednesday. Photo: Supplied
Arakura teacher aides take action for fair pay Arakura Primary School teacher aides were using their voices to draw attention to the New Zealand Educational Institutes (NZEI) Fair’s Fair Campaign last Wednesday. The teacher aides organised that teachers, students and whanau wear blue in support and stand outside the front gate of the school before school began. They held signs, handed out information flyers, gathered signatures, had a lot of conversations and got lots of toots of
support from passing traffic. Teacher aides provide support to some of the most vulnerable students who not only have learning barriers to overcome, but some also have severe behavioural issues. In supporting these students, in and out of the class, they also support teachers and their classrooms, which gives them the ability to teach. Arakura Primary has eight teacher aides on staff who, between them, have almost 80
years of experience in the job. “We want to make a difference for our students,” a spokesperson says. “We love seeing the smiles on their faces, we provide stability and consistency. “The motivation behind the nationwide protest is because so many feel like they are not valued by our Government. “It is reflected in how we are paid and how much we are paid, having to compete with other costs from Operation Grants puts
a massive strain on both us and our school,” a spokesperson says. “All of us here are paid less than a living wag. How is that fair with all of the challenges we face and all of the work we do with our tamariki?” Teacher aides are also paid mainly from the same money that the school uses to pay for things such as electricity and toilet paper. “There is no job security. This needs to change.”
The Homedale Markets will be back on December 7, 2019, just in time to get some unique Christmas gifts for your friends and family.

Father Christmas arrives early Father Christmas is coming to town on Saturday, November 30. The festive fun starts at 10am with the Wainuiomata Christmas Parade which is jam-packed with approximately 30 floats.
Watch the Parade along Main Road by Burden Ave, down Wainuiomata Rd past BP petrol station and finishing in the Mall carpark. Then, head into Queen St for
four hours of entertainment, stalls and free activities with Christmas in the Nui 11am to 3pm. Bringing all this Christmas magic together takes a big community effort and Ngapera Mei from TiHei Rangatahi, say’s, it’s all worth it. “Our community’s giving the Parade and Christmas in the Nui amazing support with incredible volunteers, groups and organisations involved as well as local businesses like Harcourts our main sponsor. “Everyone pitches in because you can see the sparkle it brings to the kids’ eyes and the sparkle in everyone’s eyes. It’s a day to bring our families and the whole community together.” Kristi-Lea Heron from the Parade team shares a special shout out to Fulton Hogan. “This year a full traffic management plan and implementation is required and Fulton Hogan have been amazing. They’ve donated their services and are working closely with our incredible local volunteers. That’s what I call Christmas spirit!” So come on down and watch all the Parade fun then enjoy lots of free activities and entertainment with Christmas in the Nui from a Ngapera Mei with TiHei Rangatahi's entry into the Christmas petting zoo and haka to face painting and kai. Parade which symbolises 12 Days of Christmas. Photo: Esther King

It may have been a seemingly grey day on Saturday morning at Waiu Park. But for the A Rocha working bee group, it was smiles all round. The small handful of people meet once a month on the third Saturday and work from 10am to 12pm, tidying up, clearing and occasionally replanting a small section of Waiu Park. A Rocha is an environmental organisation that operates globally with a primarily Christian ethos established in Portugal in 1983. And Rocha means “the rock” in Portuguese. The local group has been meeting since 2011 and is made up of local passionate people with many coming from Lower Hutt to help out. A frequent attendee Jean Rhoades says that it’s great to be outside around nature. “It feels good to be doing something that’s going to last. And you can see that change it’s made,” she says. “It’s only two hours a month Jean Rhoades gives some overgrown grass the chop. so people feel they can do it and not get too tired.”

Q uot able Va lue aSen ior like during Consultant Paul McCorry ScoutsHutt event. says Lower residential PHOTO: property has Supplied experienced significant growth in value over the last three years, particularly Wainuiomata at 53.1 per cent. Council rates will not be updated based on the new 2019 rating valuations until July 1, 2020.
New property values have been sent to owners from November 11. Ratepayers have the opportunity to object to their new rating valuation by the deadline date of December 23, 2019. The figures show that the capital value of residential dwellings has increased by 30.8 per cent with a new average capital value of $657,100. Corresponding average land values have increased by 56.0 per cent and are now $388,000.
As the population increases and more people pay rates the amount of rates is shared across a larger base. Council takes this into consideration along with the new capital valuations provided by Quotable Value to set rates from July 1, 2020. Total income needed to run the city and to provide services along with the rate of inflation are also taken into account in setting rates. “A change in the rateable capital value of a property does not mean property rates
will change by a similar percentage. “Rates charges may vary depending on how a property value has changed in relation to the average change across the whole city. “The significant jump in property values and growth in population raises a number of challenges. “We also need to prioritise investment in infrastructure to provide the necessary services for our community,” says Jo Miller.

Make cider vinegar
One of the classes at Konini Primary School used this term’s passion project to give back to the community. After the Labour Weekend burglaries at Charlie’s Sushi in Queen Street, the students decided that they will be giving back to Charlie. Teachers Bonni Ramage and Sian Rolls of room 9 and 10 talked with students about how they could possible help. “Earlier this year students learnt how to make sushi with Charlie so they already had a relationship,” Bonni says.
Learn how to make your own Apple Cider Vinegar at Kereru Creative on Wednesday, December 4 at 7pm. Knowing how to do it yourself will not only be a great money saver but will also create a staple for your cupboard. There are multiple uses from cleaning to preserving. All Ingredients will be provided for you to get you on the night. If possible bring a quart jar. The wWorkshop cost is $20. For more information contact Kereru Creative online.
Konini Primary School took their passion project into the community last week supplied and raised money for Charlie's Sushi which was burgled over Labour Weekend. Photo supplied.
Students put on a classic bake sale during school hours and raised $300. The sweet treats were made by the youngsters or added to by parents. “For the students, it is about making links with the community and feeling like they can make a difference,” Bonni says. “What skills they use now, they can take with them.”
Next term the students are working on their student army which means you may see some young familiar faces helping out around the community. Konini’s fundraiser is one of many done by members of the community to help support Charlie’s Sushi. So far, there has also been a sausage sizzle and generous donation by the public.

readers have their say... Find out the WORD on the Street. Question: What is the most important thing you are learning at school that you will use as an adult?
James Anderson,
Jazmyn Warbrick, Warbrick
Kayla Little,
Kody Daymond-Lints,
Peyton Symonds,
Brooklyn Waite-Leach
Studying because I’m going to be like David Attenborough when I grow up and study animals.
Reading, because for jobs you need to know how to spell and do it quickly.
You need a good attitude to be an adult because otherwise, you’ll end up in jail. You need to know all your skills.
Writing because you have to do a lot of tests and exams when you go to high school.
I think writing because if you’re a teacher you have to know how to ask questions and write reports. Creative stuff is also important.
Writing because if you’re getting into a job that involves a lot of writing, you need to know how to do it well.

Ignite Sport spent the majority of September raising funds to purchase their new building at Bell Park, formerly owned by the Lower Hutt City Association Football Club. The not-for-profit group provide leadership programmes for youngsters by using sport to consider character, values, balance and heart. With the help of the wider Hutt community Ignite Sport was able to
purchase the building, coordinator Kevin Goldsbury says. “Feels nice to have almost raised the whole amount,” he adds. “We’re very optimistic about the future. The whole team is very excited.” The next step for the not-for-profit group is to raise money to complete the renovations that will provide a safe space for many youngsters in the community. They currently have $125,000
already saved but for the full renovation to be done they need to reach close $500,000 in total. “We’re pretty excited to be ending up with a facility for the community and an asset” Kevin says. “It will be a great community hub and will be well be used by young people around the Hutt.” If you can help or are a business who would like to sponsor the renovations, contact Kevin on kevin@ ignitesport.org.nz

SPORTS TALK With Jacob Page
Southee’s career heading south? Call it the eye test but Tim Southee looks like a shell of himself. At his peak, he was one of New Zealand’s best pace bowlers of all time. Today he looks lost, he lacks command and cannot seem to hold up his end of the deal. Somehow he is still the squad’s vice captain but at 30-years-old he
looks like his best days are behind him. I was at Westpac Stadium for the group stage game against Wellington at the 2015 World Cup and he was majestic. His line and length was immaculate and he was able to get the ball to swing through the air and move
off the pitch as he took 7 for 33. Today he just looks unenthused. He was not able to produce during the super over against England earlier this summer when he captained the Black Caps in the series. He did not play in the World Cup final earlier this year and while he’s formed a potent partnership with
Trent Boult in tests for a number of years, he may be on borrowed time. The team will try Lockie Ferguson in the upcoming English test series next week and he may be the long-term replacement for Southee in coming seasons. He needs to reinvent himself and find a way to stay in a team he
clearly loves. Can time with Shane Bond help him? It’s a big if but even the most ardent fan must admit that Southee has not been the dynamic player the team needs for the past four years and it’s been a lack of depth which has prevented him from losing the test spot.
Local women recognised for 100 games in rugby By Megan Connolly
It was a historic occasion at the Wainuiomata Rugby Club on Saturday night when five of six women rugby players received their recognition blazers for playing 100 games. This is a first, not only for the women but for the club itself who have only rewarded male rugby players with blazers in the past. The local women’s rugby team have been playing at a high level for many years and have won two finals in 2012 and 2016. And for most of the women, it was significantly more than
100 games. “It was a real arm wrestle to get to this point mainly due to record-keeping and attitudes,” longtime player Alice Soper says. “It has been a long time coming. It has taken us four years to get to this point.” For the ladies to receive their blazers they had to go back through all the old paperwork which took an incredibly long time due to the poor documentation of women’s rugby. Women’s rugby was first sanctioned in Wellington in 1990 so it has taken 29 years for groups to be recognised for the sport.
“There could be a lot of other women who could have achieved this before us, now it is time for the younger ones to go a step further,” Alice says. “We are hoping this is the watershed moment going forward, valuing women and their participation in the club,” Many of the women who received the recognition got their start in Johnsonville before moving to Wainuiomata play. And for some, they began their careers at high school. “We are all definitely raised as rugby players both on and Wainuiomata Rugby Club made history on Saturday when five women rugby players off the field,” Eseta Mamea finally received their blazers in acknowledgement for playing over 100 games with the club.

Jake nabs national title in enduro Bowlers lead the way bikesports By Andy McGechan
The 2019 New Zealand Extreme OffRoad Championship series went right down to the wire in the South Island at the weekend, with a two-day final showdown in Canterbury on Friday and Saturday. The fourth and final round of the Yamaha-sponsored competition set a massive challenge for the nation’s elite enduro and cross-country riders, including 28-yearold furniture restorer and local resident Jake Whitaker. It had been a tight three-way battle for glory in the premier Gold Class at the earlier rounds, with Wainuiomata’s Jake Whitaker, Helensville’s Tom Buxton and New Plymouth’s Tony Parker hogging the podium spots. Whitaker, a record eight-time former New Zealand trial champion who converted to the enduro dirt bike code just a few years ago, now regularly features among the elite of the enduro scene and it was he who eventually took the championship title this year. He wasn’t even sure he’d done enough to win until just after the final moments of racing on Saturday and he had needed all his magical skills from years of winning national trial championships to get him through the demands of the weekend. Jake narrowly took the national Extreme Enduro Championship title by just five points from Tom Buxton.
Jake Whitaker taking out this year’s 2019 NZ Extreme Off-Road Champs.
“I’ve been working hard to put a full series of results together for a while now and I’m stoked to finally get my name on a national title alongside some of New Zealand’s best,” he says. “It has been a great series with tight racing and all of the rounds pushed us to our limits. “It was tough out in the
hills on Saturday, with some extreme weather conditions. I’ve never ridden in such high winds, with some riders getting blown off their bikes, and then, when the rain hit, the down-hills became out of control. “This is my first national enduro title and it feels awesome to win it.”
What a weekend it was for Wainuiomata Cricket Club with four wins from the four Senior teams. Wainui Premier Reserves were sent in to bat first on a slow green wicket on Bryan Heath park against Onslow. A decent start was quickly ruined with regular wickets through the middle order. A gutsy 41 by opener Jordan Rangikauhata made sure Wainui would have something to bowl at in reaching 88. Dan Hewitt got Wainui off to a great start with bowling figures of 3-7 but Onslow were able to get to drinks looking comfortable at 71-4. Things changed quickly after the break and Wainui were able to get quick wickets and regained control with some accurate bowling and fielding. Amazingly, Onslow lost six wickets for nine runs and Wainui won by eight runs. Chris Offord picked up the last wicket and fin-
ished with figures of 3-3. Wainui seconds played Easts and also batted first making a solid 222. Brent Baikie was the best of the batters reaching 56 and the Wainui bowlers bundled Easts out for just 60 runs. Tanuj Ahuja 3-17 and Jordan Carr 3-18 were the pick of the Wainui bowlers. In the 20/20 competition Team Rosco and Team Brownie both had good wins against Petone-Riverside. Team Rosco batted first reaching 180/8 and were then able to restrict the opposition to 164/5. Christo had a great game getting 50 with the bat and 4-14 with the ball. Team Brownie also batted first reaching 158-7 in their 20 overs, with Matt Little getting 58. Jamie Patmore was the pick of the bowlers with 4-28 to help dismiss Petone for 129. Wainui premier reserve play North City at Bryan Heath park this Saturday from 11am.
