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 />

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 />

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 />

ANZAC service was<br />
so impressive<br />

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

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

businesses can apply the same<br />
principle – invest in keeping your<br />
essential equipment or knowledge<br />
in top order, for better fi nancial<br />

economic sense is also good<br />
environmental practice.<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 />
