PAGE 4 Te Awamutu Courier, Thursday, August 18, 2005 College 1st XV rock and roll A case of third time lucky against Church College for Paerata and his team By Colin Thorsen Te Awamutu College 1st XV rugby team extend- ed their unbeaten run to eight games winning the Waikato secondary schools’ division two championship. Playing with commendable structure, aggression and self belief, Te Awamutu beat the Church Col- lege 2nd XV 18-10 on their home turf in Saturday’s fi nal. New Zealand Tall Blacks basketball coach Tab Baldwin would have been proud of them. The well-coached Singleton & Hansen sponsored 1st XV played with a lot of the qualities that Bald- win has installed in his successful side. Baldwin was quoted earlier this week: “Some- times it is not always the worst thing to lose to an opponent before you play them again in a big game.” It certainly rang true with the 1st XV. They won the game that mattered most against Church College after losing 21-0 and drawing 11- all in their two previous clashes this season. It was patently obvious to all who were watch- ing, that the 15 young men, plus reserves, of the Te Awamutu 1st XV were on a mission. After a spirited haka performed before kickoff, they drove into their opponents with tenacity and passion to lead 13-0 after 20 minutes. Church College were clearly outmuscled at this stage by a team that they had always thought that they had the measure of. Mike Stinson, a Church College old boy, has watched all three encounters between these two teams this season.

Trust Waikato’s art consultant, Stuart Stubbs, de- scribes the sculpture as ‘stunning’. It incorporates Half Price over 400 individually crafted ceramic feathers. It was among Trust Waikato’s latest blend of can- vas, sculpture and photographic imagery welcomed to the Museum of Art and History with a powhiri last Friday.

Not for transfusions for victims, but to ensure the ongoing health of the organisation. The loss of fi ve active members over the past year has reduced the number of active members to 84, supported by 73 fi nancial members. Local secretary/treasurer Betty McDonald says recruitment of young members is a problem na- tionally for the Red Cross movement. The branch farewelled Betty Riddle, a member of the executive and clothing convenor for many of the 20 plus years of service she gave to the organisation. She has moved to Pukekohe. Te Awamutu branch supported the regional book fair in Hamilton, which raised over $45,000. There was generous public support through the donation of books There was also great support for the annual appeal, which raised $2758. Garage sales throughout the year raised $1628 and the World Red Cross day celebration raised $200. Donations were sent for the fl ood appeals in Manawatu and Bay of Plenty and also the tragic tsunami appeal. “Our big social event this year was celebrating our 65th birthday - 57 members attended a very successful and happy luncheon at Whitby Farm Restaurant,” Mrs McDonald says. “It was good to see quite a number of members who had been at our 50th and 60th celebrations,” she says. At the meeting the following offi cers were elected for 2005/06: patron: Joan Miller; secretary/ treasurer: Betty McDonald; executive: Mary Ward, Avis Peterson, Joan Lee, Amy Gordon, Maude Trotter, Billie Davies. Funding boost for road projects welcomed Regional Land Transport Committee chairman, Angus Macdonald, told the Courier he welcomes the announcement of the funding boost for key roading projects in the Waikato region. “Following the Bay of Plenty’s success in gain- ing extra funding, Waikato representatives have been working hard on pushing for the additional resources that are needed to address the major problems facing the Waikato,” he says. “We are delighted to see that Transit have now signifi cantly advanced the completion dates for major projects, such as the Te Rapa by-pass, and the Ngaruawahia by-pass.” However Mr Macdonald cautions that the Waikato Expressway is something that needs to be addressed in its entirety, if it is to produce the maximum effi ciency gains. “The Waikato Expressway is a like a large jig- saw puzzle that must all fi t together for it to work properly. “By doing it piece-by-piece, there is a potential for failing to maximise the effi ciency and eco- nomic gains,” he says. “I am concerned that Transit’s announcement, which does not include funding for the Hamilton by-pass in the same timeframe as Ngaruawahia and Te Rapa, means that the jig-saw puzzle will not be complete. “The Regional Land Transport Committee will need to monitor this process to ensure that the traffi c problems in the Waikato are fully addressed, such as pushing for the Rangiriri and 230TC016-05 Cambridge by-passes.” PAGE 8 Te Awamutu Courier, Thursday, August 18, 2005 Country show raising funds for epilepsy
