Cavies count down<br />
to mega pet show<br />
• By Sasha Watson<br />
MEET Tweedledee, a shorthaired<br />
tweed guinea pig (cavy) lining up<br />
for the Garden City Cavy Club’s<br />
annual mega pet show.<br />
The 18-month-old cavy, owned<br />
and shown by club committee<br />
member Jason Lennie, will also<br />
be entering the final ‘all breeds<br />
competition’ for the year, held<br />
alongside the mega pet show on<br />
Saturday.<br />
Said Lennie: “The cavy<br />
competition and show is a lot<br />
like a bird show. The cavies are<br />
judged on their personality,<br />
health and condition, and against<br />
breed standards.<br />
“It’s a perfect opportunity for<br />
breeders, owners and anyone<br />
interested to get together and<br />
connect.”<br />
The all-breeds show starts at<br />
10.30am, where different breeds<br />
will be showcased and then<br />
judged against their specific<br />
breed standards.<br />
All cavy breeds have some<br />
shared general standards, such<br />
as the head profile should be<br />
rounded and have large eyes<br />
and large, smooth ears; the body<br />
should be strong and of compact<br />
build; and coat colour should<br />
be clearly defined and thorough<br />
from root to tip. The rest of the<br />
standards depend on the breed.<br />
The mega pet show will begin<br />
at noon, where judging begins<br />
for novelty classes including<br />
single colour pet, owner-cavy<br />
lookalike, calmest pet, elderly<br />
pet (over three years), cutest baby<br />
(under five months), craziest hair,<br />
heaviest pet, plus the grass eating<br />
competition and a free dress-up<br />
class.<br />
“There will be a $2 entry per<br />
pet per class, except for the dressup<br />
class. We are excited to be<br />
having some fun novelty classes<br />
and I hope the competition<br />
brings forward more cavy<br />
owners from around the region,”<br />
said Lennie.<br />
“Club members, both junior<br />
and adults . . . and anyone<br />
walking in on the day can join in<br />
and watch. Bring your piggy to<br />
be judged.”<br />
• The mega pet show is<br />
being held at St Paul’s Hall,<br />

Diwali celebration a<br />
first for new centre<br />
• By Sasha Watson<br />
KIMIHIA YOUNG Parents<br />
College and Early Learning<br />
Centre is looking forward to its<br />
first Diwali celebration in the<br />
new centre.<br />
It will be held on <strong>November</strong><br />
10.<br />
Said centre manager Radhika<br />
Chakrabarti: “We want not only<br />
the children to feel like they<br />
belong within the community,<br />
but we also want those who have<br />
immigrated, parents, teachers<br />
and our support, to feel like they<br />
belong here too.”<br />
The celebration will be<br />
the first for the new centre<br />
at Te Aratai grounds and is<br />
expected to bring about 60 children,<br />
young mothers, staff and<br />
support.<br />
The day will include cultural<br />
dances, arts and crafts, henna<br />
tattooing and traditional Indian<br />
food and drinks, as well as lamp<br />
making.<br />
“We want to get as many<br />
people at the centre involved,<br />
as it really brings home a sense<br />
of safety and community,” said<br />
Chakrabarti.<br />
“Language and culture are<br />
so important for children and<br />
family to be immersed in as<br />
they help them to learn about<br />
where they come from, who<br />
they are and where they stand.<br />
This is why we are hosting the<br />
FESTIVAL: Radhika<br />
Chakrabarti (right) says<br />
Diwali “really brings home<br />
a sense of safety and<br />
community”.<br />
Diwali celebration.”<br />
Chakrabarti said members,<br />
staff and family from Te Aratai<br />
College, the Phillipstown<br />
Neighbourhood Policing team,<br />
Core Education, The Loft, Hato<br />
Hone St John, the city council,<br />
Aldwins House, the Rātā Foundation<br />
and Plunket will also be<br />
joining in the day.<br />
Said parent Shikobi De Silva:<br />
“It is good as it helps children<br />
to learn about other cultures,<br />
like why your centre celebrates<br />
Matariki, Waitangi Day, and<br />
Samoan culture.”<br />
Kimihia provides care,<br />
education, cultural foundations<br />
and free meals to children<br />
and parents in a supportive<br />
and inclusive environment<br />
for whānau and the community.<br />
