Room for thinking about abortionWhen one becomes preg-

nant, why in the name ofabortion is it legal to kill himor her in the womb if we don’twant them for whateverreason?

Maybe we feel it was anaccident, or it is the wrong sex,or it is not formed the way wewould like.

Why don’t we wait untilthey are born, then if we don’twant them for what everreason, just take them to the

doctor and ask to have him orher killed?

Obnoxious thought isn’t it,but what is the difference inthe womb or born, they arestill a child, and one of God’screations?

The pro-abortion people saythat it is not child until it isborn, but if I was to hit apregnant woman and causeher unborn child to die I wouldbe had up for murder of anunborn child.

We scream and yell when 20or so are killed in a schoolshooting, but how many thou-sand are killed on that sameday in the name of abortion inthe world.

Room for thought isn’t it?And then there is the other

side, the thousands of womenand couples that are not able tohave a child. Why don’t we domore about adoption instead ofkilling the unborn child, bringit to term and have it adopted.

There are thousands thatwould love the opportunity togive them the love that theydeserve.

Perhaps, me now being inmy 80s, I have a different set ofvalues than the current gen-eration, but I know that evenamongst our own family andfriends, we have young oneswho are spending thousands totry and get a child.

IAN STRATFORDTe Awamutu

Blessed to have stood in remembranceI wish to write to express our sense of

inclusion and purpose at the Land WarsCommemoration held in Kihikihi.

It is heart-warming to be together increating our own local tradition aroundhow we remember such pivotal history inour own midst.

Our young people who attended wantto offer their thanks to the organisers andworkers who created such an impressiveevent for us to gather around to rememberour fallen warriors and soldiers, and the

living impact of the wars on familiestoday.

The Otorohanga College students wereimpressed by the expertise and humour ofthe speakers, with our girls especiallyappreciating the stories of women andchildren, and how they are our unsungheroes of the New Zealand Land Wars.

They were humbled by representingour college in the blessing and laying ofthe wreaths of remembrance.

Driving home after “awesome kai” in

the school hall, they said “we can achieveanything”.

Te Awamutu can be proud of the LandWars flags flying high and how blessed weare to have stood with so many inremembrance.

LORRAINE FOXOtorohanga College BOT Chair

On behalf of teachers and students ofOtorohanga College

Special needs education staff welcomedThe Government will fund

600 dedicated staff in primaryand secondary schools to sup-port children with speciallearning needs such asdyslexia, autism, physical dis-abilities and behavioural prob-lems. It’s being described as a

big and much-needed win bythe education sector.

The staff would work along-side teachers, parents andothers to give studentsindividualised support. Cur-rently schools have specialeducation needs co-ordinators,

often just a few hours a weekwith funding allocated by theboard of trustees.

The new learning supportco-ordinators will be a dedi-cated full-time job by a regis-tered teacher and 600 will beemployed from as early as

2020. The aim is to at leastdouble that number for one inevery urban school and accessto one for every rural school.

Trash turns into DIYtreasure for others

A garage sale in Cambridgesaved nearly 15 tonnes — around13 skip bins — of constructionwaste from land fill and put it intothe hands of keen DIYers.

Over 500 people attended TheGreat DIY Garage Sale, organisedby Rob May Builders and WaipaDistrict Council, raising $11,000for Cambridge East School.

Brand new building materialsthat were destined for the dumpwere donated by Waipa com-panies, including toilets, basins,GIB board and paint.

Council’s waste minimisationofficer Sally Fraser says Councilwas “blown away” by the successof the event which saw everything— “including a couple of kitchensinks” — be taken away andreused.

“There’s truth to the sayingthat one person’s trash is anotherperson’s treasure and we reallysaw that at the sale,” says Sally.“We’re incredibly proud of thecollaboration between the localbuilding industry, Council andCambridge East School to not onlypull off a great event, but helpeducate the community that thereare other options for waste.”

Jono McCullough of Rob MayBuilders said the event identified aneed in the community that couldbe replicated in towns across thecountry.

“It’s amazing to see how ourlocal community took hold of thisone idea. Rethinking how werecycle our product has benefitednot just a local school but the

people and facilities of this beauti-ful town. We’re looking forward toa bigger and better event nextyear,” says Jono.

Sally and Jono recognise thelarge number of people who madethe event possible.

They thanked all the busi-nesses which donated products,Cambridge East School PTA andeveryone who donated their time.Special mention went to Shaw’sWire Ropes for hosting the eventat their premises.

Products and services were

donated by Rob May Builders,Tree Town Kitchens, WackrowJoinery, Carters, AmberNurseries, Suretrade BuildingServices, Brewery Joinery, BTGElectrical, Flooring Xtra, DimondRoofing, Laser Electrical,Wraptrade, Chesters Plumbingand Bathroom, Mike Stent Decora-tors, Fletcher Sheds, CambridgeGlass, Bowers Brothers Concrete,Camille Guzzwell and Police.

Leftover products at the end ofthe garage sale were donated toHabitat for Humanity.

Big changes to the tax systemInland Revenue has

begun a public informa-tion campaign to tellKiwis what the biggestchanges to the tax sys-tem in a generation willmean for them.

Almost every house-hold and business will beaffected. Inland Revenuecommissioner NaomiFerguson says that, sub-ject to legislation, theApril 2019 tax year will

be different.“Automated tax

assessments will seearound 1.67 million NewZealanders get a tax re-fund paid straight intotheir bank account,” shesaid. “About 720,000 ofthose people will nothave had any recent con-tact with IR, some not for20 years or more.

“About 530,000 will bebeneficiaries and people

who earn less than theminimum wage and havenever applied for a taxrefund before.” Morethan 330,000 Working forFamilies customerswould benefit with IRgetting their wage andsalary information im-mediately, so customersare always getting theright amount.

“IR will get your pay-roll information on your

paydays instead of em-ployers having to do aseparate report to usonce a month.” Dividendand interest paymentswould be reported to IRmore frequently bybanks and others, so thattaxpayers don’t have to.Most people would payand receive the rightamounts during the yearwithout having to doanything.

Roaring Chorus for ArmisticeNew Zealanders are responding on

land and at sea to WW100’s call tocreate a Roaring Chorus to mark thecentenary of the Armistice that endedWorld War I in 1918.

At 11.02am this Sunday a cacophonyof joyful noise will break the two-minute silence of remembrance beingobserved nationwide at 11am,recapturing the newfound peace andhope for the future that the signing ofthe Armistice brought.

There are multiple communitycommemorations nationwide incorpor-ating a Roaring Chorus, includingvintage car horns, a mine siren, songs,drumming, cheering, church bells, andeven fire sirens and ship horns.

Director of the First World War

Centenary Programme WW100, SarahDavies, says the Roaring Chorusinvites communities to break the sil-ence in a way that is relevant to them,and it is great that so many communi-ties and organisations are joining thecampaign.

“After four years of remembrance,we can now reconnect with the sense ofjoy and relief that swept the countywhen news of the end of fighting camethrough. The thanksgiving and jubi-lation over-whelmed the New Zea-landers who had endured so muchhardship and loss since 1914.”

Work and school was abandoned forthe day, and the streets of towns andcities filled with thousands of peoplecoming together in spontaneous cele-

bration. The Evening Post in 1918described the scene in Wellington:“There were songs and cheers, miscel-laneous pipings and blastings, andtootings and rattlings — a roaringchorus of gladsome sounds.”

An historic account from nurseIsobel Haresnape, which features onthe WW100 Programme Office YouTubechannel, describes the celebrations onQueen St as: “ . . . a tremendous noise ofsirens and bell ringing, and voices andfeet running . . . strangers kissedstrangers. Everyone was dancing to thebands. People [were] very hystericallyexcited, really. Everyone was wantingto know what it was all about, and I wasone of them, and I heard someone say“It’s peace!”

Kids learning artof mindfulness

Mindfulness teacher Rachel MacAllisterteaches ‘mindful eating’ — paying care-ful attention to eating using all senses.

Photo / Bethany Rolston

BY BETHANY ROLSTON

Many children attend after-schoolactivities like sport or art — but some takemindfulness classes.

Every Tuesday afternoon, a group ofWaikato children gather at CambridgePrimary School to learn about theirthoughts and emotions.

The weekly classes help children copewith stress, anxiety and anger in theclassroom and at home.

The 45-minute classes are run by schoolteacher Rachel MacAllister, who guidesthe children through a range of activities.

Rachel designed the programme —Inspire Mindfulness — from her ownmindfulness training, six years ofmindfulness practise and nine years ofclassroom teacher practise.

One of the children’s favourite activi-ties is a ‘body scan’ — focusing attentionon physical sensations by ‘scanning’awareness throughout the body.

Also popular is ‘mindful eating’ —paying careful attention to eating using allsenses.

During the classes children learn aboutdifferent parts of their brain and thescience behind mindfulness.

“I teach children how mindfulnesshelps to calm the brain — particularlytheir amygdala, which is the part of thebrain which makes us fight, flight or freezein stressful and anxiety-provoking situa-tions,” Rachel says.

“We look at how mindfulness helps theprefrontal cortex, which is the part of thebrain we use for concentration, decisionmaking, having compassion, problem solv-ing etc.”

“I teach the children how neuralpathways are created and how newpathways can be created, therefore creat-ing healthier thought processes.”

Rachel says the children are fascinatedby the science element of the programme.

“Often, this is the first time they’vereally been taught about their brain andsome of its capabilities.”

Rachel wants to normalise the practiseof mindfulness.

“Talking about emotions and mentalhealth shouldn’t be taboo.

“Mindfulness is not about emptying themind — it’s about noticing what’s there,here and now.”

For Rachel, practising mindfulness hasmade her a more present parent with herseven-year-old daughter Isabelle.

“Slowing down and taking time out hasa real positive impact.

“It opens up that communicationbetween parent and child.”

A psychology academic agrees thatmindfulness can have many benefits.

Dr Carrie Cornsweet Barber, of theUniversity of Waikato, says benefits couldinclude increased ability to focus,decreased anxiety, more perspective anddecreased reactivity of the stress responsesystem.

She says the benefits depend on theperson and their particular needs andstyle.

“Nothing works for everyone — andnothing fixes everything.

“Mindfulness is one strategy that can behelpful — it might be really helpful to oneperson, or just a little helpful, or not at all,to someone else.

“How much and for whom it helps alsodepends on how it’s presented, and howgood a fit that has with the person’s beliefsand way of thinking.”

Carrie says there is evidence thatmindfulness practises can help reduceanxiety and depression in adults.

“There’s less research on children andadolescents, but there is good reason tobelieve that it could help.”

Rachel, originally from the UK, hasbeen practising mindfulness for six yearsand believes it should be included in theNew Zealand curriculum.

Students pay $15 per class, but herdream is to see it funded and available toall children.

Rachel’s dream could become a reality,following the government’s mental healthinquiry, which has received submissionsabout funding mindfulness in schools.

The inquiry is in the deliberation phase

and is required to report to Government byFriday, November 30.

Contact Rachel if you would like moreinformation about bringing hermindfulness programme into your school.

They say the best presents come in the smallest packagees.I say the best presents are the ones that sparkle. Give thhegift of jewellery and cover all your bases!

10 reasons to give the gift of jewellerythis Christmas:

2. Even better are gifts that sparkle!The smallest present AND it sparkles? Look who just wonChristmas.

3. They won’t have to find somewhere to put it.You don’t have to hang jewellery on the wall or clear room onthe shelf.

4. You don’t have to dust jewellery every month(I’m looking at you, floral teacup candle from two Christmasesago).

5. You can never have too much jewellery“I’ve got too many pairs of earrings” said no one, ever.

6. Jewellery is easy to post.You won’t have to fork out more than you paid for the presentto get it under the right tree in time for Christmas.

7. Jewellery can fit any budget.Whether you’re getting diamond earrings for your wife ora necklace for your brother’s new girlfriend, there will bejewellery to fit the budget you have.

8. Jewellery makes a person feel special.You’ve taken the time to choose something especially forthem, which can mean a lot.

Changes to mobiletrading by-laws

The Fish Van, which parks in Lyon St in Kihikihi on Mondays, is happy with the minorchanges to a bylaw affecting Waipa’s mobile traders. Photo / Bethany Rolston

Minor changes to a bylaw affectingWaipa’s mobile traders have been madeafter councillors asked for more clarifi-cation on where and when traders couldoperate.

A new Public Places Bylaw wasadopted at last week’s Waipa DistrictCouncil meeting.

It means mobile traders can onlyoperate in Waipa from approved tradingsites and only during times of the dayand days of the week specified in theirpermits.

Mobile traders will continue to beable to operate in Victoria Street inCambridge opposite the Town Hall, butthere will be limits on how manytraders can be there at one time andpermits for specified time periods.

The same rules will apply at all sitesacross the district with issues like roadsafety, customer safety and parkingneeds all taken into account.

Mobile trading vehicles cannot parkon berms or footpaths (unless expresslyallowed by the permit) or block access toprivate property.

A new clause will also prohibitmobile traders selling items likealcohol, tobacco and fireworks thathave statutory age restrictions.

The changes were made followingconsultation with the community inJune and July of this year.

Proposed changes to the Public

Places Bylaw attracted 86 submissions,as well as four petitions in support ofmobile traders containing 988 signa-tures.

One mobile trader happy with thenew bylaw is Jeff Rouse, owner of TheFish Van.

The popular food truck sells seafoodin Cambridge, Kihikihi, Matamata andHamilton.

Jeff parks The Fish Van by VictoriaSquare in Cambridge on Tuesdays andFridays, selling to 500-600 customersover two days.

It’s been his spot for the last sevenyears and he didn’t want to lose it.

“There was a lot of worry there for awhile,” Jeff says.

“Selling from Cambridge is a big partof what I do.”

But four petitions in support ofmobile traders got 988 signatures andJeff can stay in Cambridge.

“I’m pretty happy and I know thepetition was a major factor in council’sdecision.

“Thanks to the community and allmy customers for backing us.”

The van is also in Lyon St in Kihikihion Mondays.

Other changes to the bylaw includeprovisions regarding signs, sale ofgoods, traffic and stock droving.

The Bylaw will come into force fromthis Saturday.

Eco-N discussions welcomedThe return of Eco-N for use on New

Zealand pastures would be a boonfor farmers and efforts to protect

waterways, Federated Farmers environ-ment spokesperson Chris Allen says.

“Feds strongly supports any suchmove.

“It deserves a ‘grown-up’ conversa-tion around the issues involved be-cause Eco-N is a valuable tool thatenables farmers to temporarily storenitrogen in soil when it would other-wise be vulnerable to loss — a bonusboth for agri-business productivity andto reduce nitrate leaching intowaterways.

“It’s also one of the answers on thepressing issue of reducing nitrous oxideemissions,” says Chris.

Eco-N is a trademarked nitrificationinhibitor product developed by LincolnUniversity in partnership with Ravens-down Fertiliser Co-op Ltd. It was

launched in New Zealand in 2004.Farmers found they could typically

achieve an extra $600/ha in profit frommilk production while also substan-tially reducing nitrate leaching lossesand emissions of NO2 into the atmo-sphere.

But Eco-N was taken off the marketafter minute residues of the activecomponent Dicyandiamide (DCD) werefound in milk powder.

It was never a food safety issue(DCD is regarded as safe), but as therewas no international agreement aboutacceptable limits, Eco-N was with-drawn to avert possible traderepercussions.

Fertilisers containing DCD havecontinued to be used by farmers in theUnited States.

Ravensdown says there’s now achance that world regulatory authori-ties, including New Zealand’s Ministry

for Primary Industries, might ratify anumbrella codex agreement mid-2019 toset rules for a maximum residual levelfor a range of benign compounds in foodproducts.

If that happens, Eco-N could be backin use here during autumn to winter2020 (DCD is a winter-active compound,and that’s the season when the impactof nitrate leaching is greatest).

“We should let the science speak,and that should guide the internationaldiscussions on this — and the stance offood processors, marketers and dairycompanies should codex agreement bereached,” says Chris.

“We all need more tools in ourtoolbox as we chase the productivitygains needed to feed ever-growing andhungry populations, while also meetingthe imperative to enhance water qual-ity in our groundwater, rivers andlakes.”

Farmers urged to have say on NAIT

Federated Farmers is insynch with the Gov-ernment’s determina-

tion to revamp NAIT into amore effective and easy-to-use system, and urgesfarmers to speak up on thechanges they want to see.

“The launch this morn-ing of a new round ofconsultation onimprovements to theNational Animal Identifi-cation and Tracing Scheme

is a vital step instreamlining and future-proofing this tool,” FedsPresident Katie Milne says.

Good progress has beenmade getting on with someof the 37 recommendationsin the NAIT Review re-leased earlier this year.

“Now we have anotherchance to further hone thescheme into the effectivefarming, traceability andbiosecurity tool we need it

to be. Farmers — the peoplewho use NAIT every day —have a huge stake in thisand will no doubt have ideason how to make NAIT morefit for purpose.

“The M. bovis outbreakhas underscored for us whywe need to get this right andFederated Farmers will cer-tainly seize this chance forinput,” says Katie.

Included in the consulta-tion are questions that go

further than the NAIT Re-view, including the role ofanimal transporters, issuesaround stock agents andpotentially bringing otherspecies under the scheme.

Sustainable systems to set dairy’s futureSustainable farm sys-

tems and the newstrategy ’s s ix

commitments wi l l becrucial for dairy’s futuresuccess, according tospeakers at last week’sDairyNZ AGM in Invercar-gill.

DairyNZ chairman Jimvan der Poel said the2017/18 season was anotherbig year for dairy farmers,with great progress madein developing farm sys-tems for the future.

“We as a farming com-munity are committed tofarming within environ-mental limits and maximis-ing value from our pasture-based farming systems.This is what continues tobe our competitive advan-tage,” said Jim.

“By continuing to im-prove our sustainability,we are safeguarding thedairy sector’s future.”

Jim said the DairyTomorrow strategylaunched in 2017 is nowcentral to the sector’s fu-ture progress.

“It has six commitmentswhich encompass the en-vironment, resilient busi-nesses, producing highquality nutrition, animalcare, great workplaces andgrowing vibrant communi-ties,” says Jim.

“Dairy Tomorrow has

helped everyone in thesector think about the fu-ture and direction we needto take.”

T h e s t r a t e g y ’ scommitments are the basisof DairyNZ’s investmentsand next season, DairyNZwill invest $6.1m into pro-jects which aim to protectand nurture the environ-ment.

T h i s i s a l o n g s i d e$53.7m for research andprojects into supportingcompetitive, sustainableand resilient dairy farmbusinesses, and $7.5m intoestablishing dairy farmsas great workplaces withtalented people.

DairyNZ invests dairyfarmers’ money into awide range of programmesincluding research and de-velopment to create prac-tical on-farm tools, leadingon-farm adoption of goodpractice farming, promot-ing careers in dairying andadvocating for farmerswith central and regionalgovernment.

The 2017/18 season alsohighlighted the import-ance of biosecurity to thesector, as Mycoplasmabovis affected routinepractices on dairy farmsnationwide.

“This year Mycoplasmabovis has had a real impacton our dairy farmers and

DairyNZ has been provid-i n g s u p p o r t t o h e l pf a r m e r s m a n a g e i t simplications,” said Jim.

“As we move towarderadication, M. bovis willcontinue to be a significantfocus,.”

At the AGM two new

members on the DairyNZBoard of Directors wereannounced.

A n e l e c t i o n s a wJacqueline Rowarth votedin as a new farmer-electeddirector and Jo Coughlanratified as a new board-appointed director, replac-

Two wins from two for He’s Cavalier

Jockey Rebecca Scott unsaddles He’s Cavalier after winning the Isuzu Te Awamutu Cup onWednesday. Photo / Colin Thorsen.

BY COLIN THORSEN

Ultra consistent He’s Cava-lier, owned and trained by JamesHatton at Pukekohe Park, madeit two wins from as many startsat Waipa taking out the Cal IsuzuTe Awamutu Cup over 2000metres.

Hatton said he always feltHe’s Cavalier would win in thehands of jockey Rebecca Scott onWednesday.

“He’s raced against the besthorses all his life, unlike theother horses in the Cup field.There is a difference betweenwinning Wednesday races andSaturday races.

“I thought he would have putlengths on the field before enter-ing the home straight. However,at the point of the turn he gotstuck in behind them whensqueezed against the rail byhorses on the outside. It wasn’tideal as he’s not really a sit andsprint horse.”

Once in the clear, He’s Cava-lier showed his class winning bya length from race favouriteRoger That (Samantha Collett)with over five lengths back tothird placed Waipipi Lad (SamSpratt).

A delighted Hatton said hisCup winner had always beenconsistent throughout his wholecareer. He entered the race withsolid form of 5, 1, 1, 3, 5 overvarying distances in his last fivestarts.

“It was his 60th start at Waipaand he’s been in the first five 46times. Not many horses in NewZealand can boast a record ofthat magnitude. And he’s won onnearly every ground conditionthrown at him.

“He’s seven years old now andonly been out of the money 14times over the past four years.Three of those times he waspulled up by the jockey thinkinghe’d broken down and was pulledup on another occasion thinkinghe had heart fibrillationsymptoms.”

Hatton said he is disappointedHe’s Cavalier will not start again

until the Counties Cup onNovember 24.

“It’s not ideal. I’d like him tohave a run between now andthen but it’s very hard placinghorses in staying races in NewZealand. Our cause isn’t helpedby the horse not liking travel-ling.”

Hatton has enjoyed a long andillustrious career as a trainer.

“I’ve been fortunate to havenever been without a pretty goodhorse,” he said, rating RapidRielle, winner of five races, asone of his best ever.

Darrell Hollinshead had oneof his more memorable days as atrainer on Te Awamutu Cup dayat Waipa Racing Club.

Of his four runners, Gocaraplaced third in race one,

Tunzagutz won race two, MrLinski won race four, LittleShirley suffered from interfer-ence in race seven and StaceyAnn weighed in for fifth in theCup race.

Tunzagutz won the VilagradWinery 2000 by half a length withSamantha Collett aboard. The4yo mare had placed twice pre-viously at Waipa and served awarning to his opposition whenplacing an improved fourth over1800m at Taupo on October 10.

Mr Linski went out hot fav-ourite, paying $1.90 for the win inthe PIC Insurance 1400. The 4yogelding repaid the punters byromping to a 4.5 length victory,well ridden by jockey DanielHain. Previous starts thispreparation had seen Mr Linskifight hard for third and secondplacings at Waipa on October 7and Waikato on October 22.

The Hollinshead-trainedLittle Shirley, like a number ofrunners in race seven, sufferedfrom interference in the NZBInsurance Pearl Series Racewhen Castlereigh and jockeyAshvin Goindasamy parted com-pany after the horse clippedheels with another runner on thedummy straight around 700mfrom home. Castlereigh camethrough the ordeal unscathedwhile Goindasamy was taken toWaikato Hospital forobservation.

The race was won by theTeam Rogerson-trained Olivia,paying $11.70.

Last-start runner-up Eridaniwent one better to secure hermaiden victory in the WaipaHome of Champions (1150m).

That last-start effort resulted in thethree-year-old filly jumping away as a$2.70 favourite and she won accordinglyunder jockey Danielle Johnson, beatingDublin Rose by one and three-quarterlengths with a further two and a quarterlengths back to Gocara.

“Track conditions were the onlyworry,” said trainer Stephen Marsh.

“She went to a Dead6 at Hawke’s Bayand sort of floundered around on that. Butrace one today on a nice day, we thoughtwe’re going to get the best of it, so we’llhave a crack.

“She is stronger this preparation. Herlast start was very good at Taupo and shedidn’t need to improve much to be hard tobeat here.

“She’s certainly a filly on the way upand one you can follow.”

The Dunstan Speedfeed 1400 was wonby Phoenix Rising, trained by FrankRitchie in Cambridge, and ridden byMichael Coleman.

Top Actress, trained by Stephen McKeeat Admore, and ridden by Danielle John-son, took out the Vernon & Vasey 1400.

Danielle Johnson had further success,piloting home the Ralph Manning Cam-bridge trained Bella Blue to victory in theMakuch Roofing 1580.

The final race on the programme, theMagnum Build 1150 went to the MichaelMoroney and Pam Gerard Matamatatrained Wonder Woman ridden by TeganNewman.

Vance wants to be home by Xmas

Injured jockey Maija Vance with her dog Toro. Photo / Supplied

Injured jockey determined to walk again after Rotorua jumps crashMaija Vance hopes to leave

the Otara Spinal Unit beforeChristmas.

The Cambridge jockey hasbeen there since late Septemberafter 10 days in MiddlemoreHospital, where she was treatedfor the extensive injuries shesuffered after her mountZedsational crashed at thesecond to last fence at Rotorua onSeptember 16.

Two vertebrae were fracturedwith another three out of lineand she underwent a four-houroperation to have rods and ametal plate inserted.

She also suffered two punc-tured lungs, broken ribs, facialinjuries including six brokenteeth, and almost bit her tongueoff during the smash.

Each day her parents, formerjockeys and trainers Bob andJenny, have been at her bedsideand she is looking forward tobeing released from the Unit tolive with them in Papakura.

“I’m planning to go home in amonth, depending on therenovations being done for me,”Vance said. “I really want to gethome.”

Vance has made steady pro-gress over the last month or soand said she is now more inde-pendent in her electricwheelchair.

“When I first got put in it Icouldn’t sit upright without pass-ing out,” she said. “Now I cantransfer from the bed to thewheelchair by myself.

“As the broken ribs havestarted to heel I’ve got more

movement in my upper body, butmy back still restricts what I cando with the rods through sevenvertebrae.

“I’ve got no feeling in mywaist and have been having daily

injections to help prevent bloodclots.

“There are patches of hyper-sensitivity in my left leg but itdoesn’t move. My right leg, I cancontrol a bit but there’s a numb

and dull sensation.”Vance has been undergoing

physiotherapy at the OtaraSpinal Unit and has requested tohave more.

“Lately I’ve been having two

or three sessions of physio perday,” she said. “I’ve decided I’mnot going to spend the rest of mylife in a wheelchair and I’mdetermined to do what I can towalk again.”

A daily visitor is Toro, hermini long-haired dachshund whocame back from Australia withher.

“Dad brings him in everymorning when he comes aftertrackwork and Mum takes himhome at night after she has beenin the afternoon,” Vance said.“He sits on my lap in the electricwheelchair and if he’s not therehe’s lying beside me on the bed.

“When he first came in I toldthe hospital staff he was a softtoy. I love seeing him each day.He makes me feel better.”

Vance’s positive attitude hasbeen helped by the constant floodof well wishes from friends,colleagues, racing folk andpeople far and wide concernedabout the popular 27 year old,who has enjoyed success inQueensland and South Australiaas well as 94 wins in NewZealand.

Grace Willoughby, a Queens-land jockey and Vance’s formerflatmate, is one friend who hasdone a bit extra to help. Earlierthis month she set up a website(www.gofundme.com/help-maija-walk-again) which hasraised more than $24,000, whileSocial Racing also started a pro-motion.

“I’m so grateful to everyone,”she said. “I’m overwhelmed byall the support for me.”

■ REGENT THEATRE: SPECIAL ARMISTICE EVENT

On the centenaryof the end of WorldWar 1, AcademyAward-winner PeterJackson presentsthis unique film.

Using state of theart technology to re-store original ar-chival footage,which is more thana 100 years old, Jack-son brings to life thepeople who can besttell this story: themen who werethere.

Driven by a per-sonal interest inWW1, Jackson setout to bring to lifethe day-to-day ex-perience of its sol-diers.

After months im-mersed in the BBCand Imperial WarMuseums’ archives,narratives andstrategies the storybegan to emerge.

Using the voicesof the men involved,the film explores thereality of war on thefront line; their atti-tudes to the conflict;how they ate, slept

and formedfriendships; as wellwhat their liveswere like away fromthe trenches duringtheir periods ofdowntime.

Jackson and histeam have used cut-ting edge techniquesto make the images

of a hundred yearsago appear as if theywere shot yesterday.

The transforma-tion from black andwhite to colourisedfootage can be seenthroughout the filmrevealing never be-fore seen details.

Reaching into

the mists of time,Jackson aims to givethese men voices, in-vestigate the hopesand fears of the vet-erans and the hu-mility and human-ity that representeda generationchanged forever bya global war.
