Our highway protector Lifesaving barrier’s true cost revealed

The median barrier that stretches along Wakatu Dr on SH6 has potentially saved dozens of lives and millions of dollars as new data reveals the interventions it
has made in preventing head-on collisions in Nelson. The wire rope barrier was installed in 2006, at a cost of about $5 million. Since then, it has been hit an average of 12 times a year, with an average repair cost of $5,000 each time, data released by Waka Kotahi NZ
Transport Agency shows. However, there have only been 10 incidents of serious injury in the time since it was installed. “I think of median barriers as vaccines for roads,” says Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency’s senior road safety manager Fabian Marsh. “Where they exist,
people don’t notice them but when something goes wrong, they can be life or death.” In the last 20 years there has only been one death on the highway, relating to an incident where a crash occurred in the area of where the wire barrier now is. That incident occurred in 2002.
The transport agency says that a death on our roads will cost society about $4.5 million while a serious injury will cost about $500,000. This means that the barrier has long since paid for itself in terms of societal

economic impact. If all those incidents requiring a repair of the barrier had been serious injuries instead, it would add up to $84 million, or $756 million if they had resulted in death. Fabian says head-on crashes account for about half of all deaths on State Highways and median barriers are a proven lifesaving device, that provide separation of traffic and virtually eliminate highspeed headon crashes. “A momentary lapse of concentration is all it might take to cross into the path of an oncoming vehicle and end in tragedy.” The median barrier absorbs the energy of the crash,
rather than doing damage to the vehicle, Fabian says. “Often vehicles drive off after crashing.” While there was a fatal crash on Wakatu Drive in early 2019, which killed two people, that accident was not related to the median barrier. The agency’s goal is called ‘Vision Zero’ and represents a New Zealand where no one is killed or seriously injured in road crashes. The target is to reduce death and serious injuries on our roads by 40 percent over the next decade. Steady progress towards this would mean around 750 fewer people would be killed on our roads over the next 10 years, compared to 2018.

New pools for Nelson? Kate Russell Both Nayland and Riverside Pools could be either replaced or redeveloped within the next decade, Nelson City Council has heard. A report was presented to the sports and recreation committee on Thursday which identified the need to bring Nelson’s ‘aging’ aquatic facilities up to modern operational standards. The ‘Aquatic Facilities Strategy’ was created with input from various stakeholders and identifies that while both pools are functional, they are aged and offer only limited aquatic facilities. Nayland Pool is over 40-yearsold and Riverside Pool is nearly 100-years-old, with the report stating this is contributing to increased maintenance costs for example, water and heat loss due to leaking. While new facilities at both sites are suggested, the first three years recommends further planning and feasibility studies, and the new facilities are not considered until later in the 2021-31 period. For Nayland Pool this could include an indoor 25m movable floor lane pool, leisure pool, splash pad/toddlers pool and a hydro slide. At Riverside Pool, options for an eight-lane 25m indoor pool, a

Cafes at both sites would also be explored. The report also suggested the option of putting a temporary covered structure over Nayland Pool, while long-term plans are being put together to increase usage over the winter. There were several suggestions from councillors, such as more detail to address the potential carbon footprint of any redevelopment, considering of Nelson’s natural water resources and the need to promote learnto-swim programmes and water safety. Cr Mel Courtney asked for more urgency. “I think there’re opportunities
there - wasted opportunities - and as far as I’m concerned those assets are not performing, they’re run down, they’re not looking good.” He also emphasised the need to address Riverside Pool more so than Nayland Pool, stating that it is “not meeting the needs of the users”. “There is only one lane available for public use, that’s been the case for some considerable time, that’s not good enough. Are we just going to drift on and pretend we don’t even acknowledge that or just going to carry on doing maintenance?” The report will now be referred for consideration to the draft property and facilities activity management plan 2021-31.

Nikau House saved after campaign Jonty Dine Reporter
jonty@nelsonweekly.co.nz
After weeks of campaigning following a proposal to close it, Nikau House has been saved. Daniel Timms, who is a regular user of the mental health facility, was at the forefront of the fight to keep Nikau's doors open. He created a petition to send to Parliament which was signed by 4500 people condemning the proposal to shut its doors as part of a restructuring of mental health resources. "It is so important to the community and would have been a huge loss," says Daniel. Not only will Nikau remain open, but Daniel says the DHB say they plan to expand its resources and increase its accessibility. "They heard our voices and things on the horizon look positive." He says when the DHB heard of all the positive things Nikau does for the community, it had no choice but to reconsider its options.
Daniel has suffered with mental health issues all his life and says Nikau House has been a lifeline and haven for him. He says staff there have provided him with crucial education around diet, exercise, budgeting, sleep and legal advice, as well as offering support for those having problems with addiction and mental health. Consultation on the proposed closure began on June 5 with Nelson Marlborough Health's GM mental health, addictions and disability support services, Jane Kinsey, saying it gave an opportunity for people to voice their opinion and suggestions which helped inform the decisions made. “We are humbled by the number of people who took time to reflect and think about what the proposed changes may mean." Jane says the feedback has guided the decision-making process and identified important work needed to improve health and wellbeing outcomes for the community.

The house will be renamed Nikau Hauora Hub which NMH says recognises that they will be strengthening the focus on resilience, recovery and wellbeing as well as welcoming new users to the service. A working group will be created to lead the design of a service model and develop a plan for what services are needed going forward. This will include developing it to better meet the needs of a wider range of people including Māori, Pasifika and youth.
Nelson Labour candidate Rachel Boyack says the announcement is a win for the community. "I think it’s a fantastic win for the community, there was a huge turn out to the public meeting last week and the community has wrapped themselves around the users of this service to ensure they were supported... their voices have been heard." Rachel says other community organisations were clear that they did not have the clinical expertise to provide the same services as Nikau House. Nelson MP Nick Smith says the proposal was not thought through and would have denied vulnerable Nelsonians access to important services. "We need more, not less, community-based mental health services," says Nick. “I applaud Daniel Timms who bravely led the charge opposing the closure. Daniel openly shared his experience with mental health issues which have seen him in and out of hospitals throughout the country and multiple suicide attempts.”

Artificial turf on cards for city Sara Hollyman Reporter
sara@nelsonweekly.co.nz
Nelson City Council will further investigate the possibility of an artificial turf for the city. A report requested by Nelson City Council was presented at its Sports and Recreation Committee meeting on Thursday, which discussed the feasibility of an artificial turf being built in Nelson. As part of the report, Guppy Park was recommended as the preferred location. The turf is expected to cost $2.37m and would have an estimated $28,000 yearly maintenance bill. Renewal costs are estimated at $945,000 over a 10-year period which would be expected to be fully funded by turf hire fees. Tasman Rugby Union chief executive Tony Lewis says they are totally behind the concept of an artificial turf and will support it financially if it is built at Trafalgar Park. “We’ve probably got $200,000 to support if it was built at Trafalgar Park, which we think is more of a centralised area,” says Tony. The report raised some concerns over the Trafalgar Park site including space limitations, the extensive earthworks required and having to move existing floodlights and buildings. A 2017 report developed for NCC identified a current and future shortfall in winter training fields for weekday and artificial turf was the preferred option to future-proof Nelson’s sports field network. In Thursday’s meeting, concerns were raised by some councillors over the potential environmental impacts of the turf. Council passed a recommendation to refer the feasibility report to the Parks and Reserves Activity Management Plan 2021-2031.

Great Weekly Debate returns Staff Reporter The Great Nelson Weekly MP Debate will return just in time for voters to make their decision about who they want representing the electorate in Parliament. Last year, the Nelson Weekly ran a livestreamed debate with local mayoral candidates in a pub and resulted in a packedout venue and thousands of views online. So, this year, by popular demand it will return and pit the four local candidates, whose political parties are in Parliament, against each other. Weekly editor Charles Anderson says the idea of the debate is to take some of the perceived stuffiness out of politics. “A lot can happen in three years and a lot has happened but often it’s hard to make sense of all of it. We hope having a debate in this format, in a pub, where candidates can be challenged will help bridge that gap.” The debate will be held at The Workshop Bar and Brewery on New St on August 30 – the weekend before early voting starts on September 5. The general election is on September 19. Charles says by hosting the debate in a pub, people who might not ordinarily be interested in such an event

Photo: Jonty Dine. might feel more comfortable in learning more about those who are looking to represent Nelson in Parliament. At the last election, National’s Nick Smith, who has been Nelson’s MP since 1996 received 16,735 votes, or 40.7 per cent of the vote, while Labour’s Rachel Boyack received 12,452 votes, or 30.3 per cent of the vote. They will be joined by the Greens’ candidate Aaron Stallard and ACT’s candidate Chris Bailie. Charles says he appreciates there are other minor parties who have local candidates but time, space and keeping the event somewhat orderly all mean that it has to be kept manageable.
“While Nelson had 82.75 per cent turn out in the 2017 election, that number gets smaller as the age bracket gets younger. Part of this has to do with people not being engaged with the process.” He says it is also a way to show that the Weekly and its sister publication, The Nelson App, is serious about covering the region. “We believe this to be the first time there has been a debate quite like this, and definitely the first time it has been livestreamed.” The debate will be streamed to the Nelson Weekly Facebook page, which have more than 17,000 followers. “It’s a really great addition
to the election coverage our publications are providing and gives people an option to watch the event from the comfort of their own homes.” Charles says some questions for the debate will be made up from those submitted by Weekly readers. “We want you to email us with questions you’d like us to ask the candidates. We have the opportunity to put questions to them on your behalf.” Email your questions to e ditor i a l@nels onwe ek ly. co.nz. The Nelson Weekly Mayoral Debate will be held at The Workshop on August 30 at 7.30pm. Entry is first come first served.
Rebuilding through education As we recover and rebuild from COVID-19, a strong education sector will be crucial to ensure we have the skills needed to recover. Labour is providing free apprenticeships and, for the next two and a half years, fees-free tertiary education courses. Nelson has an impressive history of providing educational opportunities for all. I recently attended the opening of Nelson College for Girl’s Learning Support Centre Te Whiria, made possible by Labour’s capital expenditure grants for school upgrades and funding for new Learning Support roles. I was delighted to work with Salisbury School to secure its future, after years of uncertainty under National. As your MP, I will work hard to ensure everyone in Nelson can access a quality education that gives them the skills to succeed.

Seeing clear after cataract surgery offer Charles Anderson A Nelson woman who has broken three bones while waiting for life-changing eye surgery cannot understand why the Government was willing to pay more to alter her home than to pay for her operation.

Angela Wilson and Nelson MP Nick Smith. Photo: Charles Anderson. She says she cannot understand why one of the solutions to her cataracts was being offered by the Government was making alterations to her property. Nelson MP Nick Smith says those missing out on the surgery because of the survey was a "tragic story". "It is crazy economics that the Government is prepared to spend $6000 on home alterations to make Angela's home disability accessible, but not the $4000 to get rid of the disability. "We are having people kept out of work, not having a driver's licence, repeatedly turning up to hospital with broken bones, but not able to find the $4000 to get their elective operation." Last week Angela helped
launch a petition that asks that the House of Representatives investigate the 27 per cent decline in cataract surgeries in the Top of the South from 2017 to 2019, to increase the funding and improve criteria for cataract surgery to ensure more New Zealanders can access the procedure. Nelson Marlborough Health suggested to Angela that she try other ways to get treatment, including The Fred Hollows Foundation, Christchurch Charity Hospital and Auckland Regional Charity Hospital. However, as Angela is a beneficiary, she says these options would not include in flights to get her there and Work and Income were unable to help. Nelson-Marlborough DHB says it's remodelled its services to meet demands as the population ages and acknowledged Angela’s feedback. It says it is always assessing how it can balance competing priorities within the health system. However, Angela recently received some good news. A person in the North Island has since offered to pay for Angela’s surgery which she says is “lifechanging”.

Nayland's 'Muted' gets Rockquest voice Staff Reporter Nelson’s top youth band thinks their innovative use of a loop pedal during their performance may have impressed the judges. The winners of this year's Nelson regional Smokefreerockquest competition for the band category have been announced. They both win a prize package from the Rockshop and head into the national selection pool for the event’s live national final, held at the Dorothy Winstone Centre, Auckland on September 12. Coming first in the band category is Muted from Nayland College. Guitarist Jayden describes the band's genre as jazz-funk with a “pop feeling”, and says the band felt

in shock about their win. “We may have stood out to the judges because of our use of a loop pedal and the mixing of instruments,” says the 15-year-old. “We feel really proud of our music and the work we have put into it. I feel extremely fulfilled.” Second place in the band category went to The Few from Waimea College and Garin College. Both bands now join the Nelson regional solo-duo winners, Emily Vartha from Nelson College for Girls (first) and Phoebe from Motueka High School (second), with the opportunity to submit a video of their original material for selection as one of the top 10 national finalists.

Helping make Victory sing Kate Russell Reporter

Steve McLuckie is Victory’s new community coordinator. Photo: Kate Russell.
Steve McLuckie is a firm believer in the power of communities. So, when he saw the Victory Community Centre was looking for a new community coordinator, he jumped at the opportunity. A Scot who grew up in Liverpool, Steve is now seven weeks into the “people-powered” role after relocating to Nelson in June after 13 years in Auckland. “Coming from a community development space you hear about Victory and the great stuff
it’s been involved with over the years, so I got really excited when I saw the job advertised.” Steve brings a wealth of experience to the role after spending the last four years coordinating a community development project in the North Shore. He has also spent time working for Auckland Council and organising support services for homeless people in the city. He says he’s slowly but surely starting to find his feet. “It’s a big role. The key to the position is relationships, so it’s a bit of a journey developing those relationships because I’m new to Nelson and new to the role. “But I’ve been blown away by the warm welcome I’ve received and the community volunteers here who come in and help to make this place what it is.” Steve says he is currently in “listening mode”. “I want to hear what people want. There are nearly 50 different ethnic communities in this community - I want to explore how we make this place sing for all of those guys.” The centre is also about to embark on a community consultation to find out what else the centre could be doing. Reinstigating the Friday night community meals, Lark in the Park and making the most out of the community garden are all on the cards. “I also want to work on community kai resilience and supporting people around food.” Steve coordinates the activities programme, which includes playgroup, belly dancing, whānau dance, African drumming, knitting for kids and more. “We are looking for volunteers to come in and help us with some of the activities, we need a bit of community support.” Steve says he’s excited to get to know Victory. “It’s such a welcoming space - hopefully, I can help more people feel like this is their place too.” To contact Steve email steve@victory.school.nz or call 0273289922.

Volunteers needed for Habitat's new hub Locally Owned and Operated
Kate Russell
Renovations to transform of the old Suburban Club into a community hub are now underway - but help is needed to get it ready to open by spring. Habitat for Humanity Nelson purchased the Tahunanui Dr building in June with a vision to work with like-minded community organisations to promote community wellbeing, connection and providing a base for affordable housing initiatives.
Although some progress on the renovations has been made, general manager Nick Clarke says there continues to be a “reasonable” amount of work left for the charity before the building is appropriate for tenants. They are holding two working bees on 22 and 29 August from 9am - 1pm and are looking for enthusiastic volunteers such as builders, tradies or general handy people to help. The Nelson Community Foodbank, which has experienced high demand for food

parcels due to Covid-19, were welcomed in June as one of the first tenants. Locally, over the next 18 months, Habitat plans to build 16 new homes for local families experiencing housing need through its assisted home ownership programme. If you’re interested in lending a helping hand or are a community organisation who is interested in becoming a tenant, you can contact Habitat for Humanity Nelson at nelson@habitat.org.nz or give them a call on 545 0050.
New Zealand’s oldest building society has signed a multi-year sponsorship agreement with one of Nelson’s oldest not-for-profit groups. NBS has agreed to sponsor the Nelson City Brass band which will henceforth be known as ‘NBS Nelson City Brass.’ The band was established in 1857, five years before NBS was born. The band has had significant success over the last few years including three national titles and earning promotion to an ‘A Grade band’ status. Nelson City Brass regularly undertake concerts in the community and runs a successful concert series with their first post-Covid concert occurring on September 13. NBS commercial manager Howie Timms was on hand with band members Daniel Wilson and Wayne Jennens who say it’s exciting to have a new relationship between the institutions. Photo: Jonty Dine.
Charity auction on target for success Matt McCrorie
A charity Auction led by Nelson College students aiming to raise $50,000 for youth mental health is on track for success. The students are aiming to raise the money to go towards the key to life charity trust, by way of a charity auction night that will take place on September 24. The trust, started by comedian Mike King, aims to change the way New Zealanders think, act and feel about mental health and suicide. Several donations have already been made by members of the community and local businesses since a story promoting the event was published in the Nelson Weekly last week, but there is still a long way to go. In order to achieve their ambitious fundraising target and raise awareness for youth mental health and suicide prevention, organisers are looking for donations of goods and services of value to be auctioned off on the night to help with the fundraising effort. Mike King will be the guest of honour on the night, and students say they want the auction to be the biggest fundraising event in the school’s history. Tables of 10 prices have been revised to $400, with single tickets at $45. Tickets can be bought through the Nelson College office, contact 03-548 3099. Anyone who wants to donate goods or services can contact sales@waimeaweekly. co.nz or on 027 544 9448.

employ local contractors this time. Tania Brunell
‘Basic’ repairs only for Stoke Hall: About time. If the NCC had done its job maintaining this facility over time this wouldn’t be necessary. Nelson is very short of halls and facilities for local groups to hire. Trafalgar Centre is priced too high for local groups and Greenmeadows can only have 50 people on site on Saturdays, subject to a resource consent limiting the numbers. Sue Gardener
Desperate travel agents plead for help: “Some have even resorted to...” They sound like such menial jobs... I feel for those already working their butts off in these industries, that their jobs are so undervalued. Maybe the reporter needs to think about his wording in future articles, because I believe he has done you no favours this time. To the travel agents themselves, I wish you good luck. These certainly are tough times. Keryn Keene
$1.2 million just for basics? Wonder where the money is really going to end up? Rayon Mackenzie
Their industry hasn’t been forgotten about. Travel isn’t an option. Tasman Nelson
Let's hope NCC will employ a local contractor to do the work required - keep the money in our local economy. Steve Day
They should be compensated. Robin Hoogenboom
Good to see this. The hall is a useful size. Not sure why Greenmeadows complex didn't include a hall. Would have proved useful. Anyway, let's get this hall refurbished and updated. And warm in winter, hopefully. Dennis Goodman

Woohoo Jimmy, congrats mate. Clifford Saxton Such a character! Sally McMellon A group of year 13 students are leaving their mark at Nelson College after building more than 20 outdoor tables to be installed around the school. The workshop endeavours to build things that benefit the school and its extended community, replacing the iconic round blue tables which were on their last legs. The initiative aims to make the workshop pay for itself while allowing students to hone their building skills. The workshop is also in the process of creating playhouses for pre-schools, dog kennels and garden sheds.

son Marlborough DHB advised they would not be consulting the community. I must acknowledge Daniel Timms who lead the opposition and petition on closure. It takes real courage to be open about struggling with mental health and suicide attempts. I also must thank Katrina Marwick, Josh Wilkinson and Francis Riley who biked to Wellington for the cause to present Daniel’s petition signed by 4,500 Nelsonians. I am also grateful for the support of National Mental Health spokesperson Matt Doocey MP who publicly committed to National requiring our DHB to keep Nikau open. He questioned the Health Minister Chris Hip-
kins on the closure but could not get any support. The focus of this campaign has been on saving Nikau House, but the real service is its staff. They are all to be retained in the renamed Nikau Hauora Hub with improved access for Maori and youth. The controversy over Nikau has highlighted the cuts in other mental health services. The number of clinical psychologists has been reduced from 24 in 2017 to 19 and consultant psychiatrists from 11 in 2017 to 8. This completely contradicts the Government’s promise of hundreds of millions more for mental health. My next challenge is to restore and grow these spe-

Nelson Matters It was good to conclude Parliament last week with two important wins for Nelson on Nikau House and roadside drug testing. The proposal to close Nikau House was bizarre. This 30-yearold community-based mental health service is a life saver that provides support for hundreds of our most vulnerable Nelsonians. The closure was at odds with the recent Mental Health Inquiry and the widely acknowledged need for more, not less, community services. I was shocked to hear of the proposed closure at the Nelson Market on June 6 and provided leaked documents. I choose to make it public when the Nel-

cialist services. A second important win last week was Parliament unanimously supporting legislation to introduce roadside drug testing. This has been a long battle dating back to the horrific New Year’s Eve accident in Appleby that killed Mathew Dow. The Government previously rejected roadside drug testing saying it was too intrusive and expensive. Labour, NZ First and the Greens all voted against it in November 2018 and blocked my three further attempts to make progress since. Two things changed the Government’s mind. The powerful petition in Mathew’s name signed by over 5,000 Nelsonians and the
appalling increase in the road carnage. Deaths from drug driving have dramatically increased from 18 in 2014 to 107 in 2019. I am determined to get drugged drivers off our roads. I owe it to Mathew Dow, his family and the hundreds of other innocent victims. I was part of the Government that controversially introduced random roadside alcohol breath testing in the 1990s. It worked, halving drunk driving fatalities within three years. Saliva testing for drugs has been shown to be equally effective in Australia and the UK. If reelected, I will push to get this Bill through Parliament as quickly as possible. Advert.

What happens to our recycling? After watching a video of how the city’s recycling is processed, Sara Hollyman wanted to know more. She takes a look inside the facility to find out exactly what happens to our 1, 2 and 5 plastics, cardboard and cans. Perhaps like many Nelsonians, once I trundle the yellow-topped bin down the driveway it’s a matter of out of sight, out of mind. But I will soon learn that we all should be much more aware of exactly what goes into it. Smart Environmental national resource recovery manager Yuri Schokking leads me into the Materials Recovery Facility (MRF) on Fittal St, Richmond. It is only just back up and running after a large plastic tray, similar to the kind your meal is served on at McDonald’s, jammed a conveyor and shut the whole plant down earlier in the morning. Yuri tells me things like this are a common operational occurrence. Fifteen conveyors lead in all different directions and remind me somewhat of my first experience with a spaghetti junction in Los Angeles. TDC team leader waste management David Stephenson tells me that, over the past couple of months, 12 per cent of
everything that comes into the facility leaves as contamination – or waste, a number they would prefer to see below 10 per cent, but he assures me Nelson Tasman residents are actually rather good at recycling. But what does mean? Apart from the things I already know - only plastics with 1, 2 or 5 in the triangle - I learn it also means no squishing cans or bottles, it means no coffee cups or Just Juice cartons because they aren’t actually just cardboard, it means rinsing the objects before putting them in the bin and it means no lids. After the recycling truck dumps our recycling, it is loaded on to the conveyor system. The first stop on the journey for our objects is a trommel, which looks like a hugely oversized washing machine drum. It strategically spins all of the objects around, firstly weeding out anything smaller than 50mm which can’t be recycled – lids,
broken bits of glass and a wide array of other random, tiny objects - before shaking out any 3D objects less than 250mm, like plastics and cans. A bouncing conveyer then jiggles the flat paper and cardboard to the top and any three-dimensional objects to the bottom. This is why we shouldn’t squash plastic and cans, because this conveyor thinks they are cardboard and they end up in the wrong place. I see a high-heel shoe tumble to the bottom, followed by its matching pair and then a lone sneaker. With no correct home to go to it will eventually be off to landfill or, if it can be recycled, it will go into the correct line. Fibre objects, which make up 7080 per cent of our recycled goods, whiz past two eagle-eyed workers who manually pull out anything that shouldn’t be there. Plastics and cans are sent through an artificial intelligence computer at an alarming speed. The computer learns what different objects are. It takes a photo of every single item and selects which cage to send it to. Milk bottles to one, soft drinks to another, cans somewhere else. This is the end of the line for the products which then get

Flight Plastics in Wellington buy our type 1 plastics and turn them into things like biscuit packaging, tomato punnets and muffin trays. Comspec in Christchurch take our other plastics and re-process them into plastic trays for use by manufacturers. I have a new-found respect for what this passionate team do for our region, they really care about what happens to our waste and they want us to care, too.
So next time you go to put the pizza box in the recycling bin, don’t do it. Wash the margarine container, don’t squish the milk bottle or the beer can. Be considerate of the hard-working team who have to sort and then find a buyer for our reusable waste, but more importantly be aware of where your waste ends up.

Changing the face of funerals Jonty Dine A trio of Nelson women have teamed up to help change the way we grieve for our loved ones in the age of Covid-19. Carol Shirley, Anna Loach and Sally Steadman believe a memorial should be a celebration. Through their collaboration the women hope to move away from traditional funeral services and create a more relaxed environment to honour a life. Sally Steadman says it was a ‘perfect storm’ that led her to the new venture. Sally’s aunty passed away just prior to lockdown and her uncle during level four. Unable to travel due to a health condition, Sally could not mourn with her family. “I noticed a big gap that that left in me.” To help with the grieving process, Sally created ‘RIP’ websites to share memories and stories of her relatives. This eventually led her to contact Anna Loach from Simplicity Funerals who believed the websites would be hugely beneficial post lockdown. Anna was herself trying to establish new ways for families to farewell loved ones when they couldn't all be together. “Prior to Covid, there was a trend of people choosing to have cremation immediately and a memorial service down the track. Because the body is not present, it changes the mood of the evening.” Anna believes this trend will become more common with the coronavirus still rampant across the globe. “With travel restrictions it could be up to a year before families can get together, so they have time to create that service and it also takes a bit of pressure off the grieving.” The pair began to explore opportunities to create “something really special and different”. Their journey then saw them reach out to Carol Shirley at the Beachside Conference Centre. “We thought there was no reason you could not have a memorial service in the evening with some lovely food,” Anna says. “When you come into this world there is a party, when you get married there is a party, so when you pass away people should celebrate the nice person you are.”

Ben ‘Tito’ Caldwell grew up in Brightwater but is now based in Fielding. He's a father of five, a husband of one and committed to developing Manawatu's comedy scene. “Ben’s storytelling is insightful, friendly and entertaining.

The Bay Landscapes Nelson Fringe Festival 2020 is bursting at the seams with all things creative, say organisers. More than 30 shows are packed into one week from 14 – 22 August at the Nelson Centre for Musical Arts. And festival marketing manager Lisa Allan says most of it will have you laughing. “More than anything else, it is comedy that shines through in this line-up.” Lisa says some are locals, some are children and some are even from across the ditch. The People’s Republic of Improv train together weekly and feature a bunch of improvisors who are based in Nelson but collectively come from the United States, England and Aotearoa. “Their style is playful and melodramatic and their series of soap opera-inspired shows have been incredibly popular

This was a problem for him because his wife was living in Hamilton. “He jumped on a plane, sorted immigration out quick smart and the long and short of it is that Fringe gets a lovely slice
of Jim Fishwick’s creativity to share.” Jim’s shows are ‘Museum Of This Morning’ and ‘The Saboteur’. “The former is a delightful invention of a novel museum based on things that happened earlier in the day. The latter is a devilish show, where one player is trying to sabotage the whole thing- but who is ‘The Saboteur’ and can you figure it out before it’s too late?” Bay Landscapes Nelson Fringe Festival 2020, 14 – 22 August, Tickets from $13 at Eventfinda.

A big collection of small artworks has taken up residence at Nelson’s Wall to Wall Art Gallery. There are 109 pieces from 31 artists in Art Group Nelson’s ‘Exhibition of Small Artworks’ which is on now until the end of August. It’s a slightly different format for the group’s annual winter exhibition, which is usually held at the now earthquake-prone Stoke Memorial Hall. “We weren’t sure if there would be a winter exhibition at all so it’s very exciting for us that we can make it happen,” says president Nicole Russell. “We looked around for places and it was quite tricky to find somewhere that was available for a long as we needed.” A wide variety of subjects, styles
and media in the exhibition show off the range of talent in the region’s largest art group, which comprises of both amateur and professional artists. “Every artist is so different. For most members it’s a hobby. They don’t do it for commercial reasons, they do it because they love it - it’s their creative outlet,” says Nicole. She says the exhibition is a great opportunity for local art lovers to support local artists. “The support we’ve been getting is great, people have been shopping local.” All works are for ‘Cash and Carry’ sale, and this year, the group created the ‘Jeff Connell Award’ in honour of the late member, which has been presented to Heather Plowman for her piece ‘Winter Sun.’ ‘Exhibition of Small Artworks’ runs until 31 August at Wall to Wall Gallery, 112 Bridge St.

Taking love of music online Locally Owned and Operated
Charles Anderson Joel Bolton had been thinking about starting a competition to encourage young musicians to perform for the past five years. But each time he started getting excited about the idea he found that no one was willing to come on board. So, when Level 4 lockdown hit, he saw the power that music was having online and thought maybe this was the forum to make the competition a reality. “I thought ‘I’m just going to go for it’.” He taught himself how to edit video entries and make up graphicallydesigned posters. Then, in May, he put out a call for entries. There would be judges and prizes and he wanted young people from all around the country to enter. “We were expecting maybe 30 or 40 entries, but we ended up with 140 from all over the country.” That journey is coming to a conclusion this week with the grand final being streamed live on YouTube. He put up the prize money himself and also managed to persuade some high calibre judges to join him. He called it “Note-Able”. “It is really about wanting to encourage kids to take up music. It

take it at their own pace. “That has really helped their performances.” He says one entry consisted of a young French hornist playing in front of his fire at home while his father drank a glass of wine in a

Tasman United’s future uncertain Reporter
jonty@nelsonweekly.co.nz
The future of Tasman United is in doubt after it was revealed that it will not feature in the 2020 National League. Canterbury United will be the sole South Island entrant, made up of players from Canterbury, Tasman and the other side omitted from this year’s competition, Southern United. The former Tasman United committee met last week to discuss the crisis. They say there are many key and “passionate” people in the Nelson/Marlborough region who worked for a long time to bring National League back to the area. The committee said in a statement that, in the third season, there were some proposed organisational re-structures
put forward by the previous management, and several points of concern raised but were not addressed appropriately. They say the foundation chairman of Tasman United, Mark Sheehan, did a “marvellous job” helping implement and getting the franchise up and running. "However, his vast knowledge was not utilised going forward, and as a committee we submitted a proposal to help develop the future.” The committee, made up of Stu Reid, Paul Brockie, Ken Allan, Holly Barnes, Kate Gallagher and Matt Stringer, says with a lack of positive response, they felt no other option but to stand aside as well. “It was a real shame as we truly believed we were part of something special.” They say there were some challenges, but these could have

been avoided if given the chance to stay involved. “We do, however, feel it’s hugely important for Tasman United to be in the National League representing our region, and giving players from our region, the opportunity to play at the highest level of football we can offer.” Mainland chief executive Julian Bowden says Tasman, Southern and Canterbury agreed to collaborate to enter a team in the competition. Julian says the clubs agree however that having a team from the South Island was a necessity to ensure the players had a pathway into the National League. The team will be based in Christchurch. More detail on squad make up and fixtures will be provided over the coming weeks. Julian says funding was the major Download Nelson App free at

It would have been financially irresponsible to enter a team knowing that large amounts of income could not be guaranteed.” Moving forward, Julian says Mainland Football and the clubs
of Nelson have met and are working together to develop a plan for future football delivery in the region. During its four seasons, Tasman United were served by four coaches; Richard Anderson, Davor Tavich, Andy Hedge and Jess Ibrom, Tasman also saw 79 players appear in the jersey, from as far afield as Europe and America.

Prices too strong for Richmond Jonty Dine Prices-Waimea Ahurei kicked off round two of the NBS Nelson Premier Netball Competition with a defensive clinic against Richmond45 at Saxton Stadium last week. It was a low scoring but dominant display by the defending champions in the 38-16 victory. Prices-Waimea’s uncompromising defence kept Richmond scoreless for almost 10 minutes of the first quarter, conceding just two goals and scoring nine. Coach Mandy Whiting says while she was pleased with aspects of the performance, she is still wanting more consistency from her side. She says with improved connections on attack, PricesWaimea will challenge table toppers Jacks OPD after falling agonizingly short in round one. “We have it at the defence end, once we get those connections, we will be right there.” Both sides’ shooting radar was slightly askew early on, but it didn’t take long for Shar Lowe and Prices to establish dominance. Prices surged out to a 6-0 lead
as Richmond struggled to penetrate Prices formidable defensive trio of Walker, Holly Chandler and Tess Eden. A goal just before the break for Richmond saw them trailing 9-2 after the first fifteen. Harriet Ogilvie worked brilliantly inside the shooters circle with veteran Lowe. Though Richmond fared slightly better in the second, Prices were too strong all over the court and took a 19-8 halftime lead. Shardae Herring was brave for Richmond in the face of relentless pressure as Prices stretched its advantage to double figures early in the third quarter. Kalyssa, Zoe and Tess all sat out most of the fourth as Whiting gave her younger players a good run with the likes of Keri Snodgrass making the most of her time at centre. In its highest scoring quarter on the game, Prices-Waimea pulled away and closed out an emphatic 38-16 win. On court two, Stoke NBS held off a relentless Nelson College for Girls side 51-45 while in the evening’s later game Jacks OPD gave the debuting Prices Pango side a 59-31.

Mako gets a makeover, including mascot Jonty Dine The Tasman Mako will have a new mascot prowling the sideline this season. The mascot is currently on display at the Nelson Provincial Museum as part of an exhibition celebrating 150 years of rugby in the region. Also joining the modern Mako on display are the former Griffin mascots of Nelson Bays. The man under the mascot, Rueben Dudley, says he is pumped to don the new suit for their opening home game in Blenheim. “I hear it’s more stable that the last one so I will be able to do a bit more dancing.” Meanwhile, the worst-kept secret in provincial rugby has been confirmed, Tasman announcing last week that in-form wingers Sevu Reece and Mark Telea have signed for the Mitre 10 Cup champions this season. Reece, who has been explosive for the Super Rugby champion Crusaders and the All Blacks, and Blues powerhouse Telea will potentially form part of a hugely potent outside back contingent at the Mako. With players such as skipper David

Havili, Will Jordan, Leicester Fainga’anuku, Fetuli Paea and Jamie Spowart already on their books, Tasman have an embarrassment of riches out wide. With the possibility of Reece, Havili and Jordan earning All Blacks call-ups this season, this move is something of an insurance policy for the 2019 champs, leaving them with plenty of class to fall back on. Reece formerly played NPC rugby for Waikato, Telea for Kieran Keane’s North Harbour side. They are not the only signings designed to bolster Tasman’s title defence.

MacDonald, a hooker, has been playing for French club Oyonnax. He turned out on 78 occasions for Tasman between 2007 and 2015. The season kicks off on September 11 and all provinces are required to submit their 2020 squads to New Zealand Rugby by September 1.

Waimea women defend title, Suburbs held to draw Jonty Dine Reporter
jonty@nelsonweekly.co.nz
Waimea Women concluded its dominant season on Saturday, defending its Tasman Trophy title after defeating Wanderers 34-10 at Jubilee Park. The win came without skipper Jess Foster-Lawrence who broke her leg in last week's semi-final. Waimea has been rampant in 2020, amassing 334 points in just five games and conceding only 25. Fullback Penny Stickney, a veteran of more than 100 games for the club, says it was a great way to end this short season. "But it's lucky that we did have a season. Lots of other places don't get to play at all." Penny says the final was a hardfought battle. "Wanderers showed amazing heart and determination especially in the first 30 mins, having most of the territory during this time." In the 28th min Ariana Te KawaWiremu scored the first try for Waimea before the hosts pulled away in the second half. "There was great camaraderie between the teams." Meanwhile, it was raining tries at Trafalgar Park on Saturday as
Marist picked up a 43-34 win in a high scorer against Nelson. It was a timely victory for Marist as the Tasman Trophy champions prepare for finals footy in a fortnight's time. Marist ran in seven tries in a comfortable victory, however they also leaked plenty of points as a relentless Nelson side refused to throw in the towel. With a bye in the final round next week, flanker Jacob Norris says his side is standing in good stead ahead of the semi-finals. However, Jacob admits his side leaked too many tries late in the piece. "We just need to stay in there a bit longer, we knew it was a good Nelson side, it's a good lesson and something to work on at the defence end." The win sees Marist maintain second spot on the Division One table with a semi-final spot already sewn up. Elsewhere, Kahurangi maintained top spot after seeing off Stoke 4321 at Cooks Reserve. In football, Nelson Suburbs were held to a frustrating 1-1 draw with Coastal at Saxton Field on Sunday afternoon. The hosts had ample opportunity to claim the points but other than Ed Sillars' 44th minute goal, struggled to find the back of the net.

"It was disappointing that we let the lead slip, but I think it was a fair result." Sam says other than Jordan Yong and Lachie Brooks, Suburbs have struggled to find consistent goal scorers this season. "It's been a bit of a problem
throughout the year, Jordan has done well getting to double digits but with Lachie injured we didn't have too many options today." With seven fixtures remaining, Suburbs will need a strong finish to the season with Cashmere holding a ten-point lead at the top of the table. It won't get any easier for Nelson as next week the side will travel to Christchurch take on the
unbeaten Cashmere. In local division one football action, FC Nelson picked up an emphatic 7-1 win over Nelson College, Van Bawi and Thang Thang Vanuk each scoring doubles. The undefeated Rangers continue to set the pace however, dispatching Tahuna 4-2 while Richmond went down 4-0 to Suburbs Reserves at Jubilee Park.

Teammates turned rivals SportS Jonty Dine
Cricket: The life of Nelson cricket legend Graham Neil ‘Jock’ Edwards was celebrated in front of friends, family and fans at a memorial last week. Held at Trafalgar Park, the scene of many of Jock’s most famous moments, scores turned out to bid farewell to the former Black Cap. Jock died during lockdown on April 6, aged 64. Tales of his batting heroics were shared by members of the cricket fraternity including Martin Sendden, Scott Briasco and son Ryan Edwards. Jock earned himself a reputation as a power hitter, one who would have thrived in the T20 environment of today. He was renowned for hitting sixes at will, once depositing Ewen Chatfield into the lake at Pukekura Park. However, Jock’s favourite story to tell was the time he hit a six out of Trafalgar Park which landed in the back of a truck and ended up in Blenheim.
El-niño Peniamina and Tone Vaka have been creating nightmares for opposition defences for the past two seasons. The Pacific Island powerhouses formed a blockbusting mid-field for Wanderers and were the key weapons in the Brightwater side’s attack. However, following Wanderers’ withdrawal from division one, the two teammates have made the move to separate clubs in a bid to keep their seasons alive. El-niño says it was a hard pill to swallow. “It was a tough one to take, but I guess, with Covid and injuries, it had to happen.” El-niño had offers from multiple clubs but opted to join Waimea Old Boys. “I saw it as a good opportunity for me to grow and get better at footy, some Waimea players are part of the Mako set-up, and I just want to be in that environment.” After just two games for the club, Elniño says he already feels at home. “They have been real kind and nice to me and made me feel comfortable.” In an ironic twist, his debut came against Nelson, where he lined up against Tone. “I was quite nervous, playing for Waimea and seeing him in the opposition. It’s always good to test my skill against him, he tackled me quite hard early on, so I knew I had to give it my all.” El-niño says he was unable to get one back on his mate during the 31-27 victory. “Nah, I think he was hiding.”
El-niño Peniamina and Tone Vaka following their first game for their new clubs. Photo: Supplied. Tone says the pair had plenty of moments during the clash at Trafalgar. “It was a bit fun going up against my teammate, we had a few pushes and I gave his hair a bit of a pull in the ruck, but it was all friendly.” After his monster hit on El-nino, Tone didn’t say anything to his friend lying on the turf but was sure to let out a “cha-hoo’ to the boys.
80
The 20-year-old echoes El-niño’s sentiments about Wanderers’ exit. “I was a bit gutted, but it was a good call because at training we sometimes only had six players and couldn’t do anything.” Tone made the shift to Nelson to play alongside his brother Sosefo but hopes to return to the blue and gold in 2021. “I will be happy to go back and help out the club, I don’t want to see it fold.”

Harriers: The iconic Dovedale Hill Race proved as popular for Nelson/Tasman athletes on Saturday as it was at its inception 44 years ago. In excellent conditions, 85 competitors took on the challenging course, which started in the heart of the historic village of Wakefield and followed the Pigeon Valley Road up to the Dovedale Hill Summit. Medals were presented to the fastest male and female runners, Glen Lilley and Klaartje van Schie, and the fastest male and female walkers, Steve Pauling and Gwen Connor. The trophy for the first male Waimea Harrier competitor home went to Dan Busch, with Klaartje, taking out the woman’s trophy.

College’s everyman pitches in everywhere Over the next few months, sports reporter Jonty Dine is be putting the spotlight on our off-field superstars. These people work tirelessly to make sport in our region happen without trophies or medals to recognise their efforts. Whether it is fixing sports gear, mentoring athletes, or driving a van full of students to a game, there is no job at Nelson College Tony Anderson won’t put his hand up for. Tony has played almost every sport imaginable and is all too happy to pass on his knowledge to young athletes. The sports fanatic has competed in athletics, rugby, basketball, golf, tennis, squash, volleyball, softball, cricket and has been weight training since he was a teenager. He says he tries to encourage students to try as many sports as they can. “There is such a variety of activities you can participate in, give it a go, don’t be afraid to fail, if it’s not your sport try something else. There is a sport for everyone, whether you’re tall or short, fast or slow.” Tony worked as a postie for 25 years before redundancy led
- whether that means joining in on a cross-country run or a weight room session. “I’m not going to dictate what to do, I’m willing to have a crack at it myself.” Nelson College sports director Peter Grigg says Tony not only volunteers for everything he can but will always follow through. “If he says he’ll do it you know it will be done and done properly, he’s very reliable and puts his hand up for everything, boys love him, he’s just a great bugger.” Tony says Nelson College has been very good to him which is why he doesn’t mind enduring long road trips across the country. “If there are no volunteers to transport boys to events, then they won’t get to go to those events.” If you would like to nominate a ‘good sport in sport’, email jonty@nelsonweekly.co.nz
him to his former college. He initially picked up work at the college as a basketball coach before being asked to manage the weight room and supervise at Barnicoat boarding house. From there, he began to volunteer his services for everything from fixing broken cupboards to retrieving rugby balls so a student could practice goal kicking. “This is my old school, I had good memories and I am in a position to give time back so I do. If someone needs a hand to do something, I am always keen to serve.” Affectionately referred to by students as ‘TA,’ Tony says there are always jobs needing to be done. “My wife would say I spend a lot more time at the school than I get monetary reward for but that’s not why I do it.” However, Tony doesn’t just talk the talk with the students
