Plenty to crow about...By Cathy Asplin

Kaipaki School student Ben Water-house (10) has certainly ‘set the bar high’ for a scarecrow making competition.

He is the fi rst to have his creation ready for the Kaipaki Country Fair (be-ing held at his school on December 2) and hopes to inspire others around the district to have a go as well.

While the entries don’t close until No-vember 25 and the completed scarecrows don’t have to be shown until fair day, Ben was keen to get his built early.

“I talked to mum to see if she would help me build a scarecrow and we asked neighbours and friends for items that would help us.

“The clothes were from a friend of my Nan’s and the hay from the neighbours. We also went on a shopping trip to get the sunfl ower for his pocket and the lit-tle mouse to put in his hat.

“It was fun and the kids at school think Arthur’s pretty cool.”

Ben is hoping plenty of scarecrows will line the school driveway for the fair.

He also plans to check out some of the games, crafts, rides, competitions and food stalls planned for the community event, which will benefi t his school.

Entry forms and further details about the scarecrow competition or the fair are available from Kaipaki School. KAIPAKI School student Ben Waterhouse with his scarecrow ‘Arthur’.

Nightmare wake-up callBy Dean Taylor

In the early hours of Sunday morning Brian and Christine Jeffs got the news every parent of a teenager dreads.

The couple’s 15-year-old son, Nicholas Samuel Thomas, had died at the wheel of his car on Cambridge Road less than a kilometre from home.

The news was so tragic because the Jeffs thought Nicholas was asleep in his own bed.

“At about 9pm Nick said goodnight and took himself off to bed,” says Mr Jeffs.

“After the police came around we checked his room and he had done the old pillows under the blankets trick.”

His decision to sneak from the house and drive to a party in Hamilton was not typi-cal of the young man - but as his Dad says - typical of a teenager.

Nicholas was a good kid - a good student and talented at his two loves, music and cricket.

He had been playing cricket that day, fi lling in for a team to get in some match play to prepare for a season with Hamilton Boy’s High 2nd XI .

Nicholas was rapt to have made the team and was wanting to have an impres-sive season.

Sometime, possibly that night, he decid-ed to sneak off to a 16-year-old girl’s party

in Hamilton his friends were at.His plan almost worked, until he fell

asleep at the wheel on Cambridge Road near Pekerau Crescent and drove straight ahead into a power pole and brick fence pillar.

Police believe he died instantly. Neigh-bours who heard the crash came to his aid immediately.

Mr Jeffs says normally Nicholas would have asked to go to the party, and he or his wife would have picked him up.

He thinks a recent talk about schoolwork and impending exams probably made the youngster think he wouldn’t have been al-lowed to go, so he made his own way.

As well as his cricket successes, which saw him recently on a trip to Brisbane, Nicholas was a more than promising musi-cian.

He had been drummer for the successful Waikato Youth Symphonic Band for many years, and also played for the New Zealand Secondary Schools Symphony Orchestra for the past two years and this year he also spent a week performing in Vanuatu per-forming with the Boys High Jazz Band.

The serious crash unit is investigating, and at this stage police can only say it ap-pears as if Nicholas simply fell asleep.

Nicholas’ funeral is on Thursday.

After a wait of almost two months, the fi rst of three aerial applications of Pestoff cereal bait has been spread over the 3300 hectares of the Maunga-tautari Ecological Island south of Cambridge.

The operation, to eradicate mammal pests on the mountain, was carried out on Thursday by Epro Ltd, of Taupo, working with Lakeland Helicopters, for the Ecological Island Trust.

Precision fl ying from pilots using two Iroquois helicopters fl ew the bait over the main sec-tion of the mountain, while a Robinson 44 and a Jet Ranger helicopter worked around a 200-metre wide strip along the boundary.

Each helicopter was guided by digital global positioning systems (GPS) to ensure there were no gaps in the bait-laying, and that it was applied only inside the mountain’s fenced boundary.

As well, seven teams walked the 40km boundary of the forest enclosure to hand-spread bait along more diffi cult-to-reach sections, while others monitored the bait application to ensure no spills occurred. More than 70 staff, volunteers and contractors were involved in the operation.

The bait contains the toxin Brodifacoum. Two more appli-cations will be spread on the mountain – one in a few weeks’ time, and a third in May or June of next year, if needed.

Trust chief executive Jim Mylchreest said the operation required a series of consecutive

dry days in order for the bait to be taken by the largest number of pests.

“It’s been a tense time waiting for the right weather pattern,” he said.

“Epro Ltd and Lakeland Heli-copters have done a fantastic job in preparing the trust for this operation, and it couldn’t have gone better.

“We’re sure this will make a signifi cant reduction in pest numbers on the mountain.”

An Xcluder pest-proof fence was completed around Maunga-tautari on August 31 this year, creating a pest-proof area that excludes everything from mice to cattle and deer.

The bait-laying operation is to wipe out all pests within the fenced-off area, creating a safer environment for native bird and plant species.

“While some wildlife can be reintroduced onto the mountain with low pest densities, there are many native species that require a completely pest-free environment,” said Mr Mylchre-est.

“Constant trapping cannot be sustained over a long period of time, which means kakapo and kokako safety cannot be guaranteed without all pests permanently removed.”

In 2004 a pest eradication programme was successfully carried out in two enclosures on the mountain.

These were not part of Thurs-day’s operation, and the recent-ly-released kiwi and takahe in them were not at risk.

Te Awamutu Grey Power has lent its support to The Maungatautari 100k Classic.

There will be a prize of $75 for the oldest competitor in the open section and $25 for the oldest competitor in the novice section.

Organisers are hoping a large number of novices enter the event.

“It’s an event geared as much for the casual rider as the guns,” says co-organiser Vic Richards.

Riders wanting to enter have until the end of this week to avoid a $10 late entry fee.

Te Awamutu Sports Cycling and Te Awamutu Rotary Club have combined to stage the event - a picturesque cycling race which takes in roads around the mountain on Sunday, November 19. It will start at Albert Park.

From each entry fee $5 will be donated to Maungatautari Ecological Island Trust.

Fees have been kept at a relatively affordable level ($40 for 100km Classic and $20 for novice 35km event) and with the help of 35 business sponsors as well as Rotary input, an attractive array of prizes is being assembled.

There are 25 spot prizes - so the elite cyclists won’t take away all the spoils.

The race is expected to attract between 150-350 riders - although entries have been slow to date. If it is as successful as anticipated, The Maungatautari 100k Classic could go on to be-come an annual event.

Entry forms are available at Te A’ Cycles in Sloane Street. For more information phone Vic Richards at 872 1704 or Keith Storey at 871 5425.

Grey Power gets behind Maungatautari Classic

Kathryn Badrick Paul Harris FellowKathryn Badrick has provided

plenty of publicity for Kihikihi Rotary Club - but this was one story she was not prepared to write!

Mrs Badrick was vocational director from 1995-1996, ser-geant at arms in 1998-99 and has been convenor for matching grants, along with keeping the public informed of club projects and activities - and awards pre-sented to others.

She was elected the fi rst fe-male president for the club in 2001-02.

Mrs Badrick has also been very involved with the Rotary Friendship Exchange and has visited many Rotarians around the world and hosted many at her home when they have

visited this country as well as Group Study Exchange Team members.

A keen service club contribu-tor, she has also served as presi-dent of Kihikihi Inner Wheel

Club.Mrs Badrick has also been

a great supporter at her local church (Te Awamutu Baptist Church), teaching at Sunday School and at Pathfi nders.

College concert sets scene for festival

Te Awamutu Music Department again played a vital part in Scream Rosetown - opening the festival as the fi rst stand-alone event with their concert ‘Songs of Travel’.

Music students of all ages im-pressed with their talents as they

took their audience around the world with a variety of classical, jazz and popular songs.

For many members of Senior Jazz and Senior Band the concert will be their last public performance for the school, a sentiment expressed by

seventh former Wendy Rowe as she spoke of the joy the music depart-ment has provided many students.

A group of leaving students pro-vided one of the evening’s highlights with their rendition of Billy Joel’s ‘New York State of Mind’.

VIOLINIST Clare O’Connor (left) set Thursday night’s College concert going with her Romanian inspired introduction and Senior Band (above) concluded with a selection of popular pieces which demonstrated their skills and talents. 311065A/BD

Second year communication studies student Jessica Polglase is this year’s recipient of the Bren Low Memorial Scholar-ship at Waikato Management School.

The former Te Awamutu Col-lege head girl receives $4,000 for winning the award, which she says will go towards paying off her student loan.

The scholarship is awarded every year by the Bren Low Memorial Trust to Management School students majoring in ei-ther public relations or manage-ment communication.

Bren Low ran Hamilton’s one and only radio station for many years and was a public relations expert. It’s in PR that Jessica would ultimately like to work, keen to fi nd creative solutions to people’s communication problems.

Four students were short-listed for this year’s scholarshp. The fi nal four had to make an oral presentation before the trustees about overcoming PR’s negative reputation.

“I’m always one for a chal-lenge,” says Jessica.

“My speech covered the need for individual practitioners to have integrity and honesty, and for the industry overall to never compromise its standards, and

I also emphasised the need for PR people to join and make use of PRINZ, the professional PR institute that offers advice, education and information to practitioners.”

Bren Low Trustee, Colin Cochrane said all the presenta-tions were of a high standard, but Jessica’s stood out.

“It was the professionalism of her speech and the general way she handled herself that impressed us. She showed ma-turity we perhaps didn’t expect from such a young person.”

During the last year Jes-sica was involved in Waikato University’s Students in Free Enterprise competition and she says that experience gave her plenty of opportunity to work on her presentation skills and certainly helped her confi dence for the Bren Low award.

She has one more year to complete her Bachelor of Com-munication Studies and says she may stay on at Waikato to do postgraduate study in public relations.

Scholarship for former TA College head girl

SCHOLARSHIP recipient, Jessica Polglase.

The organisation that acts as an advocate for the over 50s has turned 21.

Grey Power started in 1985 and has gone on to become an active and powerful voice and strong lobby group.

Te Awamutu Grey Power life member, Paul Hobbs, says Grey Power does not just fi ght ‘political stupidities, it is also an organisation that watches over the needs of all citizens of the ‘third ager’.

“I can remember the early days when the big cause was removal of the surcharge (on

earnings for superannuitants) which we saw as discriminatory against all who had saved for their retirement.

“It took us 15 years to win that battle,” the former national president says.

“The latest battle has been the quite unnecessary dis-crimination against the elderly driver. We celebrate a partial victory on December 1.”

Grey Power has battled against GST on rates for many of its 21 years - and that battle continues.

Its premise is that while it is

not against council paying GST on goods and services purchased (on ratepayers’ behalf), by plac-ing GST on rates ratepayers are forced to pay rates on non rate-able items such as councillor and staff remuneration, inter-est, ‘lay-by’ capital and even the penalty on overdue payments.

Mr Hobbs says one of the key differneces he notices since Grey Power fi rst started is the number of seniors ‘on the net’. He is planning to send out Te Awamutu Grey Power monthly newsletters via this medium from now on.

Kelly & Bryant counting awards for excellence

Kelly & Bryant was awarded the trophy for ‘Top Accounting Practice’ by Professional Invest-ment Services at the organisa-tion’s 2006 conference.

For the second time in the fi ve years that the award has been running, the Te Awamutu accountancy fi rm grabbed top honours.

Professional Investment Services New Zealand provides dealership services to more than 60 independent fi nancial advisers, who work with more than 85 chartered accounting fi rms plus a number of other referral sources.

Award criteria included vol-ume of fi nancial services busi-ness, professional approach to clients and business and sup-port of the Professional Invest-ment Services’ model.

The conference theme was ‘Rollercoaster of change’ and workshop topics illustrated the changing landscape of account-ancy and investment services - including proposed investment tax changes, Kiwisaver, trusts and fi duciary responsibilities and investment and insurance case studies.

Kelly & Bryant won the Top Accounting Practice Award in 2002, the same year that the company carried off the inau-gural ‘Waipa District Best Busi-ness’ Award.

Adding the company’s success that year was the ‘Financial Planner of the Year’ Award for Christine Braun.

Partner Stephen Gibson says they like to see their success as a reward for effective planning and implementation of systems

that ensure clients’ diverse needs are met.

“We have invested in sys-tems to ensure our whole team have the skills to match our mission of understanding our clients’ needs and helping them to achieve their potential in the key areas of business and wealth creation.”

National recognition as an in-dustry leader has followed.

Mr Gibson says accountants now need to take a holistic view of their clients’ fi nancial affairs, ensuring the correct systems, structures and entities are in place to maximise performance.

Of Kelly & Bryant’s 22 staff, four full time equivalents pro-vide services other than core accounting functions, all aimed at adding value to clients’ busi-nesses.

School students try hand at yachting

BUDDING yachties put their skills to the test on Lake Ngaroto. 3110615AD

Students from Pirongia and Otorohanga South primary schools had an invaluable op-portunity to try out yachting at Lake Ngaroto recently.

Contingents of pupils from the two schools used the lake on different days to take advan-tage of the Yachting New Zea-

land ‘Have a Go’ initiative.The programme sees three

trailers set up with six optimist sailing dinghies plus three to-paz two-handed ‘learn to sail’ boats, as well as an infl atable coach boat, travelling around the country.

The package comes complete

with an experienced coach and is aimed at intermediate school aged children.

Ngaroto Boat Club members assisted.

The programme is based on the philosophy that all children in New Zealand should be given the chance to try yachting.

Joyce Green emerged victorious from the Top 10 shoot-out at Te Awamutu Women’s Golf last Wednesday.

Spectators were treated to some wonderful golf, inter-spersed with a few humorous and at times disastrous shots.

Hazel Bryant was runner-up, followed by Sylvia Gooch, Erena Neilson, Maureen Fraser, June Gillespie, Min Nolan, Julie Stevanon, Raewyn Coleman and Margaret Johnson.

The Wednesday scramble saw Margaret Collings to the fore with 19 stableford points, followed by Rae Roberts and Elizabeth Macpherson on 16.

Julie Stevanon’s hot form fl owed over into the Saturday scramble, where she collected 43 stableford points, fol-lowed by Jade Furer on 40, Mary Strack on 36 (by lot) and June Gillespie on 36.

Joyce Green shootout queen Wilson triumphs in triplesMurray Wilson skipped his host

club team of Brian Dobbins and Doris Mackey to outright victory in the latest open tournament at Te Awamutu Bowl-ing Club.

Wilson’s combination was the only team with four wins. Several teams emerged with three wins, but with the countback on differentials, Ron Parson’s Pirongia team of Nevenka Drnasin and Rae Baucke emerged as runners-up.

Third place went to Mike Oldfi eld’s team from Cambridge.

The Devoy Signs and Graphics spon-sored tournament attracted 25 teams.

In 1990 husband and wife team - David and Wendy Reynolds (pictured below) - developed the concept of creating quality New Zealand made outdoor furniture, for New Zealanders.

Rhapsody Furniture was born in the garage of their Freeman Place home, with a commitment to employing local people to make quality outdoor furniture made to withstand New Zealand conditions and meet the needs of the Kiwi lifestyle.

The values the company was built on remain the cornerstone of today’s operation.

Rhapsody Furniture has resisted the temptation to manufacture all or any of the components overseas, has stayed loyal to its Te Awamutu base by building the purpose built factory in the town and continues to be run by David and Wendy - backed by the same team of mentors, professionals, family and friends who have been there since the start.

In 2006 the couple are proud to be able to do business

in their town - and to be able to contribute over $1million annually to the local economy through employment, services and product supply.

Rhapsody is using the increasing trend of imported outdoor furniture to its advantage - demonstrating to discerning buyers that quality of design and manufacture is always more desirable.

As New Zealand’s leading outdoor furniture manufacturer, Rhapsody has committed to its future success by adding a new face to the team - renowned New Zealand designer Helen Jones (pictured below) of Osot Design.

She has clocked up an impressive pedigree since graduating with a degree from Auckland University’s Elam fi ne arts school.She went on to study furniture design in Italy, where she gained a second degree from the European Institute of Design and worked for four years with a design studio in Milan followed, working with well-known Italian manufacturers on textiles,

ceramics, bathroom fi ttings, indoor and outdoor lighting and, of course, furniture.In 2000 she established Osot Design, offering services to large-scale manufacturers, and residential and commercial clients.Her goal is to improve people’s lives, and to encourage the appreciation of good design and the ability to discern.

“I want people to feel good using the furniture.”Stage one of the investment in the new designer range is

launched to the public this Thursday - and Te Awamutu people have the fi rst chance to be impressed by the product by visiting Te Awamutu Furniture Court for an exclusive viewing of the full range.

And in keeping with the committment to quality, Rhapsody Furnitue is now able to offer a full 10 year construction warranty - a warranty backed up by the knowledge gained from 16 years in business - that Rhapsody outdoor furniture does stand up to the demands of our Kiwi lifestyle and conditions.


Mathew Veen carded a 69 off-the-stick to win the men’s gross prize in the open midweek tour-nament at Te Awamutu Golf Club last week.

Kenneth Veen was next best, six shots in arrears, followed by Roger Hunapo on 76 and Trevor Ormsby on 77.

Positive response to venue switch

TE AWAMUTU’s four of (from left) Jess Rawlings, Brooke Reynolds, Kylie Smith and Sam Sinnett (with cox Becky Smith) on their way to second place at Lake Karapiro. Rawlings and Sinnett also successfully teamed up to win the women’s senior double. 3110619AD

By Cathy AsplinTe Awamutu Rowing Club

added another chapter to its history books recently by stag-ing the annual club regatta at Lake Karapiro for the fi rst time.

Club captain Allan Barugh says a number of factors encour-aged them to switch venues.

“Entry numbers were drop-ping at Lake Ngaroto, so we were struggling to get the sup-port needed to make our regatta viable.

“Negative comments regard-ing the water quality of the lake meant fewer clubs were

prepared to compete there.“Karapiro also offered better

facilities, so it made sense to use it.”

However, using those facili-ties came with a hefty price tag, which meant some fi nancial support had to be found before the regatta could be considered.

“Fortunately we received wonderful support from local businesses - they sponsored all 46 events - for which we are very grateful.”

Clubs from Auckland, Bay of Plenty, Hawkes Bay and around the Waikato combined to pro-vide a great day’s racing.

As the regatta is one of the fi rst on the rowing season cal-endar, it also gave many novices a chance to compete for the fi rst time in a relatively relaxed event.

Mr Barugh says a huge effort was put in by members of the Te Awamutu Club to run the regatta - from organising the programme and sponsorship to serving in the canteen, man-ning the barbecues and driving safety boats.

“It was a great team effort and judging by the all the posi-tive feedback we have received it was well worth it.”

TE AWAMUTU’s eight fi nished in third place behind Auckland and Waikato crews. 3110619BD

The White Masai

The amazingly true romantic adventure of a Swiss woman who married a Masai war-rior and settled in the Kenyan bush.

Beautiful blond Swiss woman Carola gazes dreamily out beyond the ferry-boat railing, where her eyes meet those of hand-some Masai warrior Lemalian.

Not must longer than an heartbeat later, Carola ditches her Swiss boyfriend and travelling companion Stefan and decides to stay in Kenya to pur-sue Lemalian – even though she doesn’t yet know if he returns her feelings.

With a premise so astounding that it can only be true, this fi lm is based on the bestsell-ing autobiography of Swiss woman Corinne Hofmann, who fell in love with a Masai war-rior while on holiday in Kenya.

She married him and lived the life of a tra-ditional Masai wife for several years.

Sophie SchollIn 1943, as Hitler

continues to wage war across Europe, a group of college students mount an underground resistance movement in Munich.

Stein night, Saturdayin Ngahinapouri Hall

A great night of drinking and dancing Bavarian-style is promised for those who attend the Stein Night at Ngahinapouri Hall on Saturday.

The fundraising project, being staged by the Ngahinapouri Hall Society, is to help with the upgrade of the community hall.

A successful quiz evening and monster garage sale have already been held to help raise funds.

Doors open for the stein night at 7.15pm, with the Stein Band play-ing from 8pm-11pm.

Commemorative steins are avail-able to purchase on the evening (there is no BYO for beverages).

Supper is included in the ticket price ($25).

For further details or tickets con-tact Ross (07 825 2200) or Colin (07 823 6678)..

Dedicated expressly to the downfall of the monolithic Third Reich war machine, they call themselves the White Rose.

Its sole female mem-ber, Sophie Scholl, is captured during a dangerous mission to distribute pamphlets on campus with her brother Hans.

Unwavering in her convictions and loyalty to the White Rose, her cross-examination by the Gestapo quickly escalates into a searing test of wills as Scholl delivers a passionate

call to freedom and personal responsibility that is both haunting and timeless.

The true story of Ger-many’s most famous anti-Nazi heroine is brought to thrilling life in this multi-award winning drama.

Armed with long-buried historical records of her incar-ceration, director Marc Rothemund expertly re-creates the last six days of Sophie Scholl’s life: a heart-stopping journey from arrest to interrogation, trial and sentence.
