Soldier, young dad killed<br />

Mitch Tahapeehi expected her<br />

eldest son <strong>Te</strong> Tahuna to join her in<br />

Kihikihi to help plan her late<br />

husband’s memorial, but instead<br />

she and whanau had to travel to<br />

Palmerston North to retrieve her<br />

dead son’s body yesterday.<br />

Private <strong>Te</strong> Tahuna Tahapeehi<br />

(21) died after a collision on Monday<br />

morning between his motorcycle<br />

and a car driven by a 20-year-old<br />

woman who was also in the Army.<br />

The crash happened on a public<br />

road outside Linton Army camp<br />

near Palmerston North, where Private<br />

Tahapeehi lived with his partner<br />

Sami Tapara and their fourmonth-old<br />

son Arikirau<br />

Wharepouri.<br />

Private Tahapeehi was to return<br />

to the family home in Kihikihi for<br />

the unveiling of the headstone for<br />

his late father, Tamainupo.<br />

His father and mother had both<br />

served in the Army.<br />

Mrs Tahapeehi says it is hard to<br />

believe what has happened to the<br />

eldest of her four sons.<br />

She says he was ‘mischievous’ as<br />

a youngster and recently became a<br />

proud dad for the first time.<br />

Private Tahapeehi is spoken of<br />

highly by his Army commanders.<br />

He had been a driver at the<br />

Linton base since returning from a<br />

six-month deployment in East<br />

Timor last year — just in time for<br />

his son’s birth.<br />

‘‘The baby came two days after<br />

he got back ... It was like he was the<br />

only man in the world that had a<br />

baby, he couldn’t keep his mouth<br />

shut,’’ Mrs Tahapeehi says.<br />

<strong>Te</strong> Tahuna is remembered<br />

fondly by former classmates at<br />

Kihikihi Primary, <strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong><br />

Intermediate and <strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> College<br />

(where he excelled in waka<br />

ama).<br />

On leaving College in 2006 he<br />

went straight into the Army —<br />

following in his parents’ footsteps<br />

which was something that he had<br />

always wanted to do.<br />

His commanding officer, Lieutenant<br />

Colonel Rob Krushka, said<br />

Private Tahapeehi was a professional,<br />

well-liked soldier who would<br />

be sorely missed.<br />

From his service in East Timor<br />

he had been awarded the New<br />

Zealand General Service Medal, the<br />

New Zealand Operational Service<br />

Medal, and a Timorese award, the<br />

Timor-Leste Solidarity Medal.<br />

He had been looking forward to<br />

other overseas postings, but also to<br />

looking after his four-year-old son<br />

so his partner could pursue her<br />

Army career too.<br />

Mrs Tahapeehi says her<br />

thoughts go out to the Army woman<br />

involved in the crash that killed her<br />

son.<br />

She says the women, who was<br />

unharmed, was pregnant and she<br />

felt for her and the way she would<br />

be feeling.<br />

‘‘Sometimes these things just<br />

happen.’’ The cause of the crash is<br />

still under investigation.<br />

TE TAHUNA TAHAPEEHI<br />

Shaani’s ANZAC Day speech inspired<br />

BY GRANT JOHNSTON<br />

A feature of recent ANZAC Day<br />

commemorations has been younger<br />

generations honouring their<br />

forebears — and guest speaker at <strong>Te</strong><br />

<strong>Awamutu</strong>’s Dawn and Civic<br />

Services, Shaani Tauroa did that<br />

brilliantly.<br />

Shaani, who is one of four head<br />

students for <strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> College in<br />

<strong>2010</strong>, told the gatherings about her<br />

grandfather, or koro, Taiaho Eruiti<br />

Riini.<br />

When she said that she was the<br />

same age on ANZAC Day as her<br />

koro had been the day he went off to<br />

Egypt to serve with the 28th Maori<br />

Battalion B Company in World War<br />

II, you could have heard a pin drop.<br />

‘‘Like so many of his generation,<br />

my koro lied about his age so he<br />

could join his two older brothers in<br />

serving their country.<br />

‘‘At one stage he declined a<br />

promotion because he did not want<br />

to outrank his brothers. His two<br />

brothers died in battle.<br />

‘‘It was a difficult experience for<br />

koro. Sadly, none of his grandchildren<br />

met him, but we heard<br />

many stories about hardship and<br />

service, and about his commitment<br />

to uphold the honour of his family<br />

and people.<br />

‘‘Many have made sacrifices like<br />

my koro so that we can enjoy lives<br />

full of opportunity and promise.’’<br />

Commemoration Service. See more ANZAC Day photos on page 3.<br />

Shaani read a verse from her<br />

koro’s favourite song ‘Pearly<br />

Shells’.<br />

After the Civic Commemoration<br />

Service, a number of elderly<br />

attendees stopped to admire the<br />

medals that belonged to Shaani’s<br />

koru, and to congratulate her on<br />

her speech.<br />

FIREFIGHTERS turn fundraisers this Saturday, with <strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> Fire Brigade members carrying out a street collection from<br />

11am-3pm to raise funds for the Leukaemia and Blood Foundation.<br />

<strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> Fire Brigade is again<br />

participating in the annual Firefighter Sky<br />

Tower Challenge next month and will be out<br />

rattling the buckets to raise funds this<br />

Saturday.<br />

On Saturday, May 22, 420 firefighters will<br />

race to the top of Auckland’s iconic Sky<br />

Tower.<br />

In its seventh year, the Firefighter Sky<br />

Tower Challenge is a New Zealand tradition.<br />

The event attracts hundreds of firefighters<br />

from around New Zealand and overseas<br />

who race to the top for the chance to claim<br />

fastest man, fastest woman and fastest team.<br />

Last year’s street collection and fundraising<br />

from the <strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> community<br />

allowed the Brigade to take an amazing<br />

cheque for over $4,000 to present to the<br />

Leukaemia and Blood Foundation and contribute<br />

to the record total of $148,000 raised<br />

by all the participating brigades from all<br />

parts of the country.<br />

<strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> Fire Brigade has a consistent<br />

history of having a good number of<br />

participants. This year is no different and<br />

with training well underway, they have<br />

nine competitors with two competing in the<br />

event for the sixth time and three competing<br />

in the nerve racking first time.<br />

In 2009, 365 New Zealand firefighters and<br />

firefighters from Australia and the US,<br />

raced up 51 flights — or 1,103 Sky Tower<br />

steps — wearing full firefighting kit and<br />

breathing apparatus weighing up to 25kg.<br />

This year it will again be an intense gutbusting<br />

challenge up to the top and to raise<br />

funds for the Leukaemia and Blood Foundation.<br />

The <strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> Fire Brigade is proud<br />

to support the Leukaemia and Blood Foundation<br />

who utilise these funds to contribute<br />

towards patient support for the 10,000 New<br />

Zealanders living with leukaemia,<br />

lymphoma, myeloma or a related blood<br />

condition, services which cost more than<br />

$1,000 a day to provide!<br />

<strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> Fire Brigade will be<br />

collecting money from the community on<br />

Saturday from 11am to 3pm.<br />

They will be walking round most of the<br />

residential streets in the <strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong><br />

township, going door-to-door with the fire<br />

trucks following behind.<br />

The fire trucks will be decked out with<br />

Leukaemia and Blood Foundation posters<br />

and have the beacons and sirens (noncontinuous)<br />

operating to draw attention to<br />

the appeal.<br />

Several Brigade personnel will be<br />

accepting donations for the Foundation in<br />

the town’s main centre along Alexandra<br />

Street.<br />

Any contributions from the collection<br />

will be greatly appreciated by the Brigade<br />

and every cent will be handed over to the<br />

Leukaemia and Blood Foundation which<br />

receives no Government funding, and relies<br />

entirely on fundraising activities and support<br />

and donations of individuals.<br />

Further information is available at<br />

www.firefightersclimb.org.nz or by<br />

phoning Danny Smith of <strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> Fire<br />

Brigade on 07 858 6668(wk) or 871 6195(after<br />

elped make the <strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong><br />

ervices such a success, and in<br />

articular his vice president <strong>Te</strong>rry<br />

inlay.<br />

Mr Haberfield commended this<br />

ear’s PA system, which he said<br />

as a huge improvement on other<br />

ears.<br />

Mr Haberfield said it was gratifying<br />

to see the ever increasing<br />

numbers turning out for ANZAC<br />

parades and Armistice Day<br />

commemorations on November 11.<br />

He said the services were not<br />

about celebrating war, as some<br />

would claim, but about commemorating<br />

the fallen.<br />

Mr Haberfield read out the<br />

names of local Defence Force personnel<br />

serving overseas — Corporal<br />

Angela Blackwell in East<br />

Timor, Lance Corporal Makarena<br />

Tupaea in East Timor, Leading<br />

Combat System Specialist Stacey<br />

Rasmussen in the Gulf States,<br />

Private Cameron Barrie in<br />

Afghanistan and Lance Corporal<br />

Hohua Subritzky in Afghanistan.<br />

Parade Marshall David Bowler<br />

said 100 veterans marched at the<br />

Dawn Parade and 120 at the Civic<br />

Commemoration Service, including<br />

uniformed personnel currently<br />

serving in the Defence Forces.<br />

Mr Haberfield noted that the<br />

traditional after service function<br />

at St Patrick’s Hall was not held<br />

this year ‘‘for a number of reasons,<br />

the main one being viability’’.<br />

Waipa Mayor Alan Livingston<br />

acknowledged the efforts of <strong>Te</strong><br />

<strong>Awamutu</strong> RSA and supporters. He<br />

made special mention of the First<br />

Health Company (which has a<br />

charter with <strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong>) for the<br />

support provided at services like<br />

Sunday’s.<br />

He also thanked <strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong><br />

Community Cadet Unit, under<br />

Captain Richard Thompson, for<br />

their contribution.<br />

‘‘We are here to remember<br />

those who died, so that we and our<br />

children might live,’’ Mayor<br />

Livingston said.<br />

‘‘We are here to honour the<br />

service men and women from the<br />

past to the present.’’<br />

One was the<br />

reflections of Dan<br />

‘‘We were thin, most of<br />

us, weak with dysentery<br />

and poor nutrition.<br />

‘‘... Turks spotted us<br />

and we were met with a<br />

hail of bullets, we made<br />

perfect targets.<br />

‘‘... Men began falling<br />

dropped. Men I’d been<br />

brothers, but we couldn’t<br />

stop or show sorrow for<br />

the fallen. ..more and<br />

more of us fell.. until I<br />

discovered myself alone,<br />

the one survivor of the 16<br />

never saw or heard of my<br />

my heart.’’<br />

Faye not afraid of<br />

Friday Fright Night<br />

BY WINTEC STUDENT<br />

SAMANTHA PEARSON<br />

There is something<br />

delightfully terrifying at<br />

this year’s Waikato Winter<br />

Show.<br />

‘Friday Fright Night’<br />

is designed with teenagers<br />

and the more<br />

adventurous adults in<br />

mind.<br />

The inaugural event<br />

will be held in the old<br />

barn at the Waikato<br />

Events Centre, which for<br />

many years has lain derelict.<br />

Rumour has it that<br />

the barn is haunted and<br />

that no-one dares venture<br />

there after dark<br />

because of the grisly<br />

wails and spooky moans<br />

that ring out across the<br />

grounds around the time<br />

of the full moon.<br />

Entertainment coordinator<br />

Meg Davies<br />

says as a community<br />

event, part of the Winter<br />

Show’s brief is to cater<br />

widely for the community,<br />

so activities for<br />

youth are important.<br />

“For me, the satisfaction<br />

of organising this<br />

event will come from<br />

seeing young people<br />

enjoying themselves in a<br />

safe, fun and ‘scary’<br />

environment.<br />

‘‘Every day I come to<br />

work to find more gruesome<br />

and disturbing<br />

props filling the office,<br />

which is great because<br />

I’m watching the event<br />

come together before my<br />

eyes - but the real fun<br />

will come on the night.<br />

“We are excited to<br />

have glam-rock band<br />

Rose Petals and Confetti<br />

performing from 8pm -<br />

10pm.<br />

‘‘There will also be a<br />

team of hideous and<br />

frightening ghouls,<br />

ghosts and freaks to<br />

alarm those brave<br />

enough to venture into<br />

the old barn.”<br />

NIGHTMARE BRIDE: Props manager Faye Cole Baker with one of her many<br />

creations that will terrify the adventurous at ‘Friday Fright Night’.<br />

Baker of Ohaupo has<br />

been working hard making<br />

props for the show.<br />

It has taken<br />

approximately two<br />

months of solid and<br />

inspired work from her.<br />

More volunteers have<br />

also recently come on<br />

YOUR LETTERS<br />

ANZAC service was<br />

so impressive<br />

The ANZAC service at The Cenotaph was very<br />

impressive, due to the participation of the many<br />

community groups.<br />

The excellent sound system and the large<br />

numbers of seating provided ensured that our <strong>Te</strong><br />

<strong>Awamutu</strong> people of advancing age did feel comfortable<br />

and will return in future years. Assembling old<br />

and young together.Thank you Waipa District<br />

EXECUTIVE’S VIEWPOINT - <strong>April</strong> <strong>2010</strong> <strong>2010</strong><br />

As a member of the <strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong><br />

Chamber of Commerce Executive I<br />

am very excited about the upcoming<br />

<strong>2010</strong> Waipa Networks Business<br />

Awards. The Awards are a fantastic<br />

opportunity for your business to<br />

celebrate its successes in what<br />

has been for many a challenging<br />

business environment. At Gallie<br />

Miles we are already putting together<br />

our entry. We are using it as an<br />

opportunity to review our business<br />

practices and highlight what we are<br />

doing well and also to identify some<br />

of the areas which we can improve<br />

Sustain your business<br />

Reduce, re-use and<br />

recycle – and stay local<br />

There’s been plenty of negative<br />

publicity about the latest in<br />

environmental legislation with<br />

the proposed Emissions Trading<br />

Scheme, to counter this we<br />

suggest it’s time to take stock and<br />

think about what your business<br />

does to positively infl uence<br />

your own social, fi nancial and<br />

immediate environment.<br />

It’s worth remembering that<br />

actually some of the most ecofriendly<br />

options for your business<br />

are good old fashioned sense<br />

– reducing the inputs and waste,<br />

re-using equipment for as long as<br />

viably possible by keeping it well<br />

on. I really encourage all businesses<br />

to enter the Awards. Not only is it<br />

as a good opportunity to take time<br />

to review the great work you do,<br />

but it is an excellent opportunity to<br />

develop and raise your profi le within<br />

your community. Details on how<br />

to enter the Awards can be found<br />

on the Chamber’s website www.<br />

teawamutuchamber.org.nz<br />

It is equally important that as local<br />

residents we do our best to support<br />

our local businesses. Talking to local<br />

retailers this week, it’s clear that<br />

many are feeling the effects of the<br />

upgrade works which are happening<br />

in the main street and also in other<br />

locations around town. The upgrade<br />

works will be worth the disruption<br />

in the long term, but retailers need<br />

our support NOW. If you’re are out<br />

shopping, please, stay local and<br />

keep our community working.<br />

In brief<br />

Business confi dence in Waipa<br />

levels out.<br />

Businesses are expecting ‘more of the same’ with 49%<br />

of those surveyed in March expecting business conditions<br />

to improve and 43% expecting a stable environment.<br />

The number of businesses experiencing diffi culties in<br />

fi nding skilled staff also remained consistent at 11 percent.<br />

Emissions Trading Scheme a new Tax.<br />

The Auckland Chamber is encouraging businesses to email<br />

the Prime Minister and express their concerns on the new<br />

tax that will be imposed on them on July 1st. The proposed<br />

Emissions Trade Scheme will increase business costs by<br />

between 3% and 5% which Chamber CEO Michael Barnett<br />

says will be diffi cult to recover in a subdued market.<br />

“Add to this the fact that our trading partners won’t have<br />

the same cost, you can expect our exporters’<br />

competitiveness to be affected as well,” he says.<br />

TE AWAMUTU COURIER, THURSDAY, APRIL 29, <strong>2010</strong> 17<br />

Marist fight back for win<br />

<strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> Marist<br />

turned a 19-15 halftime<br />

deficit into a 29-24 victory<br />

over Northern in Waikato<br />

second division rugby.<br />

The Marist scrum<br />

improved as the game<br />

progressed, pushing<br />

Northern off their ball<br />

numerous times at<br />

Tahuna.<br />

Northern’s backs<br />

played well but Marist’s<br />

tackling often stopped<br />

them before the advantage<br />

line.<br />

The game was<br />

reportedly a rather<br />

scrappy affair, but good<br />

discipline by Marist,<br />

unlike Northern, gave<br />

them the win.<br />

Murray Gane Plumbing<br />

sponsored Marist<br />

scored four tries through<br />

Norman Lima, Anthony<br />

Kahura (2) and Ace<br />

Masalo.<br />

Logan McLaughlin,<br />

who earlier in the day<br />

refereed an under-85kg<br />

game in <strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong>,<br />

arrived in time to take the<br />

field as a second half<br />

replacement. He was on<br />

target with three penalties.<br />

The club hosted a successful<br />

10-a-side president’s<br />

grade tournament<br />

on Saturday.<br />

Joy for<br />

soccer<br />

reserves<br />

<strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> men’s<br />

reserve soccer team beating<br />

their bogey Unicol<br />

side 3-1.<br />

The opening goal<br />

stemmed from Dave<br />

Ireland blasting a shot<br />

onto the crossbar. The<br />

ball deflected into the<br />

path of Lee Mallett who<br />

finished off.<br />

Five minutes later the<br />

same two players were in<br />

involved in the second<br />

goal being scored —<br />

Mallett crossing the ball<br />

into the Unicol danger<br />

area, the keeper fumbled<br />

and Ireland punished the<br />

mistake.<br />

<strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> sealed<br />

their win midway<br />

through the second half<br />

with a second goal to<br />

Ireland.<br />

Player of the day was<br />

Lee Broderick in central<br />

defence.<br />

The women’s reserve<br />

team went down 5-0 away<br />

to Morrinsville.<br />

It was a disappointing<br />

result after last week’s<br />

narrow loss to Ngaruawahia<br />

and putting in the<br />

hard yards at training.<br />

Player of the day was<br />

Amber Western.<br />

TA bow out of Chatham Cup<br />

<strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> senior men’s socer<br />

team suffered a 5-1 loss to<br />

tumoetai in the qualifying<br />

ound of the Chatham Cup.<br />

Otumoetai took the lead with a<br />

ell taken goal by forward Brian<br />

oldie at Anchor Park on Saturay.<br />

Boldie was always the target<br />

or their attacks and was given<br />

he room, just enough, to punish a<br />

tatic defence.<br />

Cape Physio <strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> tried<br />

n vain to find a first half equalser,<br />

but just weren’t given the<br />

oom to penetrate.<br />

Otumoetai managed to stretch<br />

heir lead rather fortuitiously<br />

hen an attempted Robbie Diaz<br />

learance struck keeper Kevin<br />

uckle’s ankles and deflected into<br />

he net.<br />

With a 2-0 lead, Otumoetai<br />

were able to play the game at their<br />

pace.<br />

Kim Brierley reports that the<br />

visitors always looked for the<br />

forward who was constantly sitting<br />

on the shoulder of the last<br />

man in defence, waiting to pounce<br />

on any mistakes the back four<br />

would dish up.<br />

They stretched their lead to 3-0<br />

at halftime when a forward was<br />

able to get on the blind side of<br />

central defender Carl Miezenbeek<br />

and slot the ball past keeper<br />

Buckle as he came out to close the<br />

angle.<br />

<strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> managed to get<br />

through on occasions, but their<br />

shooting boots had been left in the<br />

changing rooms.<br />

After some soul searching, <strong>Te</strong><br />

<strong>Awamutu</strong> came out for the second<br />

period determined to put some<br />

respectability into the scoreline.<br />

But it was Otumoetai who<br />

extended their lead to 4-0,<br />

punishing some sloppy defending.<br />

<strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> finally opened<br />

their account when Jimmy Maxwell<br />

showed some nice footwork<br />

to dance past a pair of defenders<br />

and slot the ball past a sprawling<br />

keeper.<br />

Any chance of a <strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong><br />

comeback was dashed minutes<br />

later when keeper Buckle spilt a<br />

cross at the feet of a grateful<br />

forward, who had no trouble<br />

finding the back of the net.<br />

<strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> played well in<br />

patches and the scoreline somewhat<br />

flattered the Otumoetai visitors.<br />

Man of the match for Cape<br />

Physio <strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> was the<br />

tireless Adam Blake.<br />

NEW RELEASE<br />

The long wait is over<br />

for Opshop’s fans as the<br />

band releases their new<br />

single, Pins & Needles.<br />

It’s been three years<br />

since the release of<br />

Opshop’s triple-platinum<br />

selling album, Second<br />

Hand Planet.<br />

Now, freshly back<br />

from supporting The<br />

Fray and Jools Holland<br />

at Singapore’s Rock and<br />

Roots Festival the band<br />

has a brand new single,<br />

Pins & Needles.<br />

Recorded at<br />

Roundhead Studios with<br />

long-time collaborators<br />

and music production<br />

royalty, Greg Haver and<br />

Clint Murphy, Pins &<br />

Needles is a vast<br />

multiplex of imaginative<br />

vocals, searing riffs,<br />

dramatic string<br />

arrangements and trademark<br />

Bobby Kennedy<br />

drums.<br />

It is both immediately<br />

‘Opshop’ and somehow<br />

fresher, more feverish,<br />

and altogether, bigger!<br />

“We found some new<br />

toys,” says lead singer<br />

Jason Kerrrison, with<br />

glee.<br />

“Sonically we wanted<br />

to evolve from Second<br />

Hand Planet yet retain<br />

what we did well as a<br />

band, so we kept the<br />

same great team around<br />

us and added new<br />

dimensions.”<br />
