Rippa Rugby also kicked off and it was great to see all of our kids who are not of age to play contact rugby down at their respective clubs on Friday night, where coaches took the young ‘nippers’ for a series of activities and games. This week Junior Rugby moves into its second Festival Day. Please see below the draw for the upcoming matches, and remember that matches may be shortened due to playing two matches in one day.

Three games were drawn to be played but sadly Te Aroha College withdrew from the competition meaning only two games would take place. The early game saw Whangamata Area School take on Hauraki Plains College 2nd XV, after a early arm wrestle Whangamata Area School took control scoring two very good tries Kiharoa Gilbert and Captain Callum Whatley with Keegan Pace adding one conversion. Whangamata went into the break 12-0. In the second half Whatley and Gilbert added another try each, while Isaac Cunningham and Rory Bathurst scored five points each, Pace added another conversion giving Whangamata a creditable 34 – 0. Players to stand out for Whangamata were captain Whatley who carried strongly with the ball in hand all game and received the man of the match, prop Kybah Aupouri-TeHuia was very good in the tight exchanges, while Cunningham and Bathurst had good games in the backline. For Hauraki Plains College 2nd XV brothers Josh and Max Van Hellemond had strong games in the locking position while midfield back Kalani Avery caught eye with a couple of good hit ups. In the late game between Hauraki Plains College 1st XV and Paeroa College, this game had every reason to be everything everyone expected, playing for the Provincial Transport Challenge Shield. Both teams exchanged tries early in the first ten minutes, before Hauraki Plains opened up scoring two tries, before Paeroa’s midfielder Rimu Alexander ripped through the defence just before haftime to close the gap to `17-10. In the second half Paeroa again found the try line to make the game as close it would get before Hauraki Plains ran away with three tries and two conversions before Paeroa College got a consolation try to finish the game. Hauraki Plains College 1st XV winning 31 – 20 Players to stand out for Hauraki Plains were front rowers Aidan Harrison and man of the match Cooper Bennett while in the backs Anthony Makiha directed the backs around wih precision including scoring a good try of his own. For Paeroa lock Cole Williams-Te Moananui had a strong game with ball in hand and number 8 Korbin Chwesik toiled away hard all game. Rimu Alexander was the pick of the Paeroa College backs with his sizzling pace and able to cut the opposition backline open a couple of times. It is back to normal this weekend with games spread across the region. Please see the draw below; U15 Boys DRAW: Saturday 1st Paeroa vs Thames High Paeroa 10.15am Start N/A August College School Saturday 1st Te Aroha vs Whangamata Te Aroha 10.15am Start N/A August College Area School Saturday 1st Waihi College vs Hauraki Plains Waihi 10.15am Start Marcus August West Howie Saturday 1st Hauraki vs Mercury Bay Hauraki Plains 10.15am Start Justin August Plains East Area School College Randall 1st XV Boys DRAW: Saturday 1st Mercury Bay vs Hauraki Plains Whitianga 11.30am Start Paul August Area School College 1st XV Graves Saturday 1st Hauraki vs Paeroa Hauraki Plains 11.30am Start Aaron August Plains 2nd XV College College Miller Saturday 1st Whangamata vs Waihi College Whangamata 12.15pm Start Stu August Area School Pinney CLUB RUGBY Waihou clinched a huge upset win against Mercury Bay on their 140th Anniversary Weekend. After a couple of results going against them over the last few weeks, Waihou knew they needed to fire if they were going to have any chance of a Semi Finals berth. Waihou opened the scoring through Sam McCahon, but Mercury Bay hit straight back with a penalty followed by an intercept try to Jayden Tegg. Waihou then weathered the storm and scored two more tries through Matthew McCahon and Joe Murray to take the Paul Herbert Trophy back to the Waihou Clubrooms with a 17-10 Victory. Whangamata continued their good run of form in front of a huge home crowd on their sponsors day. A gutsy Paeroa outfit chucked everything but the kitchen sink at Whangamata, however a clinical & accurate Whangamata were to much going on to win 58-5. After a fast start, Whangamata shot out to a 19-0 lead with 3 quick tries going to Zach Clarke, Pedro Garceres and Brendon McKeown. However, Paeroa hit back in quick succession scoring a try of their own through Cameron Bell. Paeroa then held the ball for the next 15 minutes, with their big physical ball carriers making meters up the middle. Unfortunately, they couldn’t keep up this tempo for the rest of the game, conceding 7 more tries on their way to another agonising loss. Jacob Chaplin & Jason Hayward had barnstorming matches for Whangmata, whilst Brodie Toia & Johnson McKain played well for Paeroa. Waihi scored 8 tries in their 50-31 victory over Thames to keep themselves in the hunt for a Semi Final. Dylan Horne scored a hat-trick whilst Max Wirihana-TaWake scored 2 tries for Waihi. Sione To’a also got his name in the hat-trick spotlight with 3 tries of his own, taking his season tally to 5 for the season. Unfortunately for Thames, Waihi were the better side throughout the match, with superior structure & fitness giving them the edge in their high scoring victory. COBRAS continued their winning streak with a tight 34-31 victory against Hauraki North in Waitakaruru. This was always going to be a testing battle been a ‘top of the table’ clash and with the score sitting at just 26-17 to COBRAS at half-time, both teams were well in the battle. It was once again Fijian powerhouse Sireli Kuraduadua who stamped his impact on the competition scoring 2 tries, as well as strong 2nd Five-Eighth Sione Vakapuna’etoni, Zac Stephens and Ben Stephens each scoring one. Jason Laurich scored 2 tries of his own for Hauraki North, however that wasn’t enough to get over the line in front of their home crowd losing 31-34. In the Senior Reserves, it was the battle of the titans be- tween Coromandel and Tairua.

  • What You Need to Know About Our Mining Activities Before You Purchase a Property in Waihi
    What you need to know about our mining activities before you purchase a property in Waihi What you need to know about our mining activities before you purchase a property in Waihi OceanaGold is mining under residential properties in Waihi East and also has consent to mine in other areas. Here is what you need to know if you are considering purchasing a property in Waihi. CEPA We are mining in the area inside the yellow line in Waihi East. This area is known as CEPA, the Correnso Extended Project Area. We are allowed to mine underground anywhere in this area. The top of the Correnso mine is at least 130 metres below the surface. This is about the same distance from the Sky Tower glass observation deck to the street. Before we tunnel under any property inside the CEPA area we must offer the property owner an ex gratia payment of 5% of the current market value of the property. Before we mine under a property we must offer the property owner the same ex gratia payment or the option of us purchasing the property at current market valuation. If the property you are considering purchasing has already received an ex gratia payment this should be recorded on the LIM report. In the event that we mine under the property and offer to purchase it, the ex gratia payment will be deducted from the amount we offer. This does not apply to a sale on the open market. We advise that you check the LIM of any property you are considering purchasing.

  • An Application to Karangahake Gorge
    Modelling and Analysis of Crash Densities for Karangahake Gorge, NZ Cenek, P.D. & Davies, R.B. MODELLING AND ANALYSIS OF CRASH DENSITIES FOR KARANGAHAKE GORGE, NEW ZEALAND Peter Cenek, Research Manager, Physical & Engineering Sciences, Opus International Consultants ([email protected])) & Robert Davies, Director, Statistics Research Associates Limited ([email protected]) ABSTRACT An 18 km length of New Zealand state highway located in tortuous terrain that displayed a poor safety level (11 injury crashes per year) was selected to trial the “safety improvement potential” approach to safety management of roads. This approach involves comparing the actual safety level over a section of road with the average safety level estimated from a crash prediction model. This paper presents the results of applying a crash prediction model specifically developed for the New Zealand state highway network to analyse the safety performance of the 18 km route. The Poisson regression model is believed to be one of the first to successfully relate crash rates to road geometry and road condition. Therefore, the relative effectiveness of various engineering based countermeasures to bring about an improvement in the current safety level was also able to be assessed. The countermeasures investigated included realignment, high friction surfacing and road smoothing. It was determined from the modelling studies that a more consistent level of crash risk throughout the 18 km route could be achieved through either increasing friction levels or increasing the radius of the horizontal curves at specific locations. Key Words: crash risk modelling, road surface condition, road geometry 1 INTRODUCTION Transit New Zealand’s safety programme has, for the most part, been reactive, eliminating crash “grey-spots” and “black-spots” across New Zealand’s state highway network.

  • District Profile
    District Profile The Hauraki District contains a diversity of land, communities and economies. Our location puts us in the ‘golden triangle’ between Auckland, Tauranga and Hamilton, and provides for a number of potential business opportunities to settle within our district. Due to the flow on effects of the growth pressures facing Auckland, Hamilton and Tauranga, in the past five years we have seen more people moving into our district than previous years, and added demand for new houses. With our active support of economic development initiatives, we are expecting our local economy to continue to perform well and our local population to keep growing. Our Home Our land Our district sits at the south of Te Tara o te Ika o Maui – the barb of the fish of Maui. It is geographically diverse and stretches from the shelly beaches of the Wharekawa Coast (Kaiaua and Pūkorokoro-Miranda) along the Firth of Thames in Tῑkapa Moana (the Hauraki Gulf) to the white sandy beaches of the Pacific Ocean at Whiritoa. Between lies the rich reclaimed dairy lands of the Hauraki Plains, the rugged beauty of the Karangahake Gorge and Kaimai/Coromandel ranges, and the rolling farmlands of the Golden Valley. We sit within the rohe of the iwi of Hauraki which stretches from Matakana in the north to Matakana Island in the south. Our total area is The Hauraki District Council was formed in 1989 when the Hauraki Plains County, Ohinemuri County, Paeroa Borough and Waihi Borough Councils were combined 1,269 as part of a major restructuring of local government within New Zealand.
