UNDER COVER: Central School’s covered turf proved its worth at the official opening yesterday when it started to rain during the ceremony. Students Tyson Puddick and Zita Szoke had the honour of cutting the ribbon — cheered on by their schoolmates. Principal Andy Hayward said it was a wonderful resource and was being used all the time. “People are lining up to use it. We’re lucky, we wouldn’t have been able to do it without the support of all the funders and that is the key to it. Schools don’t have that coin lying around and we are fortunate to have that large support.” Mr Hayward said the opening, which had been delayed due to Covid, was fantastic. “The children spoke very well, the cake was lovely and the singing was fantastic.” Picture by Liam Clayton

Izett, 38, has been on trial in the High Court at Rotorua for murder after Nevaeh Jahkaya Whatukura Ager’s body was found by police on the tidal flats at Little Waihi on March 21 last year. The jury delivered their unanimous verdicts yesterday after about 10 hours of deliberations. The jury had to decide whether Izett intended to kill his daughter when he assaulted her and/or drowned her, or was not guilty by reason of insanity at the time. Or was it, as the Crown alleged, Izett’s “meth rage” that led to him killing Nevaeh and assaulting three other people between March 20 and 21, 2019.
