Push for investigation after DHB death Jonty Dine The Public Service Association has requested an independent investigation into the Nelson Marlborough District Health Board’s workplace practises after a mental health worker died in a suspected suicide from what a colleague alleges was the culmination of extreme job stress. Workers in the DHB’s alcohol and drug department recently met with

union representatives to discuss their concerns about the case and generally about the stresses they were under in the workplace. As a result, documents cited by the Nelson Weekly show that the PSA requested an independent investigation into the circumstances surrounding the mental health worker, who died on August 14. However, the DHB rebuffed the request saying it would be inappropriate while a

Coroner’s inquest was underway. A co-worker of the man who died, who wishes to remain anonymous, says long hours, an overload of cases, and his treatment by management contributed to his death. “He had a very happy home life, there were no issues or concerns there, he was a happy man and loved his family.” The woman says the man often worked late into the evening and on

weekends just to manage caseloads. “He would go over and above.” She describes her job as a “powerless and humiliating” work environment. The woman says the mental health team at Nelson Marlborough Health are understaffed which affects their ability to care for clients. She says that the PSA had recently done a survey of the staff in the team which revealed that the feeling of disenfranchisement

was widespread. “We do the best we can with the resources we have, we have tried to talk to management, but it has fallen on deaf ears.” The woman says, during performance appraisals they were pressured into taking on more work. The man had previously taken one week leave due to work related stress.

Before she was even out of nappies or speaking in full sentences, Sailor Orlowski wanted to fight. Sailor grew up watching her father and four older brothers box and was always determined to prove she was just as tough. The Stoke resident would beg coach Dion Hall to let her fight but was always met with the same response. “You will have to wait until you’re older.” But now, after a long nine-year wait, Sailor will finally make her boxing debut at the South Island Golden Gloves this weekend.

Sailor will take on a Christchurch boxer fighting out of the Smiling Tigers Gym. She says she has never been so excited for anything in her life. “This is my one and only chance to win my first fight, you get heaps of Christmases.” Adding to the pressure of her debut is the fact all the boxers in her family won their first fights. “I have to win.” With seven siblings, including three sisters, Sailor is the first female in the Orlowski family to don the gloves. The diminutive ten-yearold has already garnered a reputation for her toughness.

Push for investigation FROM PAGE 1 She says his work with youth weighed on him heavily. “Youth are a lot more vulnerable and susceptible to reacting to risks and taking their own lives.” The PSA did not respond to requests for comment, however, it has previously publicly admonished the DHB for not listening to its requests to structure the mental health team’s correctly to allow for a healthier workload. Nationally, it has said that mental health teams were facing a “significant workforce crisis” which was exposing them to “dangerous levels of risk”. General manager of mental health addictions and disability support services at Nelson Marlborough Health, Jane Kinsey, says 2020 has been a very challenging year. “We’ve had to do things differently to maintain a high-quality service

throughout Covid-19, while managing an increase in referrals to our services.” Jane says some of the addictions support team have faced personal challenges this year. “Our thoughts are with them and their whanau.” She says it is a credit to the team that they have continued to provide high-quality care. “We value and appreciate their expertise and commitment.” It’s ok to ask for help: In an emergency: Phone 111 1737: Free phone or text 1737 to reach a counsellor Healthline: Free phone Healthline to talk to a nurse 0800 611 116 Free helplines available Depression: 0800 111 757 or text 4202 Suicide Crisis Helpline: 0508 828 865 Youthline: 0800 376 633 or text 234

STOKE HALL TO REMAIN CLOSED: Nelson City Council has been unsuccessful in its application for funding to repair the Stoke Memorial Hall. “Council had applied to the Provincial Growth Fund (PGF) for funding to undertake earthquake strengthening of the, but unfortunately the application was not successful,” says Roger Ball, group manager community services. However, in August council agreed that if the PGF application was unsuccessful, it would still proceed with the design work for the project, with physical works timing to be confirmed through the Long-Term Plan 2021-31. “The hall will remain closed until this work can be carried out.” He says a report is expected to be presented to the community services committee early next year regarding other improvements that could be made to the hall at the same time as the strengthening work is carried out, such as insulation, heating and acoustic treatments.

Action demanded over dangerous intersection Sara Hollyman Reporter

sara@nelsonweekly.co.nz

A group of residents are calling on Nelson City Council to further improve an intersection on The Ridgeway before someone is seriously injured or killed. Mick Rollason says the intersection he lives next to at Arapiki Rd and The Ridgeway is the most dangerous road he’s ever lived on. He says the traffic has exponentially increased with the joining of Suffolk Rd and The Ridgeway, as well as new subdivisions in Marsden Valley and Coster St. Coupled with the speed cars travel along the road Mick says it’s “bedlam” to try and cross at 8.30am and 3.15pm with his eight-year-old daughter. There are no footpaths on the eastern side of the intersection, meaning there is no choice for the street’s residents but to cross at the intersection. Mick says he has raised concerns with the council on behalf of the residents over a period of five years. In emails viewed by Nelson Weekly, council acknowledged his concerns as “valid” in March 2017.

More than three years later work has just been completed to build out the kerb on one corner which increases the line of sight for oncoming traffic, but there is still no crossing and no footpath. “We’re standing on pavement now, but it doesn’t stop the speed and it doesn’t make the distance any less to get across,” says Mick. He says the first time using the new road layout involved having a near-miss with a van coming over the brow of the hill and another trying to beat it by not obeying the stop sign at Arapiki Rd. “We were so close to being over

the bonnet, my daughter was pretty shocked by it … You’re just getting ready to run every time you cross, there really is no safe way to get across.” Council group manager infrastructure, Alec Louverdis, says improving the safety of this area, especially for pedestrians and cyclists, is a priority for the council. “In response to safety concerns raised by residents, particularly the difficulty school pupils have crossing the Ridgeway to access the footpath on the western side, we commenced a project to improve visibility of oncoming traffic at key crossing locations.” He says it’s the first step in making the area safer and knows that more needs to be done. “This will look at opportunities to extend the footpath on The Ridgeway from View Mount to Panorama Dr and introduce measures to lower vehicle speeds,” says Alec. But Mick worries that this work will never progress. “To council we say, ‘thank you for what you’ve given us thus far, we’re really looking forward to the pathway, it brings up our spirits and we trust you that you’re going to do that, but don’t leave us hanging now’. “We just want a crossing. Or a footpath, anything, something.”

College celebrates diversity City’s event attendance

causes concern

Erin Bradnock Nelson College’s minority students took centre stage last Friday during the school’s annual Diversity Day celebrations. The school promotes Diversity Day as an opportunity to celebrate all cultures, backgrounds, and identities in the school’s community. The college hosted a variety of multicultural food stalls, encouraged students to wear their national dress and attend a special assembly with performances and speeches from students. “We have a culture of support and acceptance that celebrates everyone here,” says organiser and teacher, Emma Gillyon, who opened the annual assembly. Student performances included singer and guitarist Cung Bawi Hlichal, the college’s Pasifika Performance group and its Kapa Haka Group which performed a passionate waiata and haka. Former student and support teacher Apitoni Filiai spoke of his experience growing up Pasifika in Nelson. He spoke of feeling like he had to leave his identity at the door to fit in at primary school, where he

Students Robin Zathang and Allize Mangar spoke on their experiences as immigrants in New Zealand and on their time at Nelson College. “My mother wanted her children to have a better life and education,” says year 10 student Robin, who spoke of his childhood growing up in Chin State, in west Myanmar. Bhutanese year 13 student

Allize arrived from Nepal to New Zealand in 2013 and shared his experiences with his peers. “I lost my childhood,” says Allize, speaking of his younger years growing up in a refugee camp in Nepal. Allize says he was initially a shy student when he first arrived in Nelson as he struggled to communicate, but says he’s had a really positive experience at Nelson College and is grateful for the support of his teachers. He is now a part of Nelson’s Youth Council and Multicultural Youth Nelson. “Diversity Day makes me feel really empowered. I feel welcomed and accepted,” he says.

More residents are satisfied with Nelson City Council according to its annual residents' survey, although there is a worrying decline in those attending events in the city. The results of the survey were presented to councillors on Thursday at a governance committee meeting. The survey asked 402 residents how satisfied they were with the council in areas such as transport, services, events, facilities, and communication. Sixty-three per cent of responders said they were satisfied or very satisfied with council’s overall performance, compared to 56 per cent last year. It is the highest level of satisfaction in the last six years. However, attendance at council events that occurred before Covid-19 was down, with more people saying that they attended no events at all. Attendance targets for key events were not met, with only 55 per cent of responders having attended at least one council event in the past 12 months. The Summer Festival, Mask Parade and the Nelson Arts Festival all saw notable drops in attendance. All these events occurred prior to Covid-19. Council says its events' programme

1+2=FREE!

is being reassessed via the arts, heritage and events activity management plan, and officers are also considering other ways to better measure the success of events. Although there were high levels of satisfaction with council facilities, there were drops in attendance to Nelson libraries and the Suter Art Gallery, however this is likely to be because of the Covid-19 restrictions. Outdoor facilities were among the most used council-supported facilities with over 70 per cent of respondents using walking tracks, parks and beaches. Looking at transport, just over half of residents reported being satisfied with the transport activity in Nelson - an increase on the previous year’s responses. Three-quarters of respondents said they drove a motor vehicle to get to work and those who used the bus dropped from 3 per cent to 0.4 per cent. Those who either walked, ran, or biked to work dropped from 19 per cent to 16 per cent. Less than half of the respondents were satisfied with the way rates are being spent, with over one-in-five being dissatisfied. The 20-minute telephone survey was carried out with a representative sample of residents in March and June this year.

Nelson’s political mantle passes to Labour Nelson has a new MP for the first time in 24 years. Charles Anderson offers his analysis of the watershed moment and what it might mean for the future. There was a feeling of inevitability at Rachel Boyack’s election HQ at Saxton Pavilion on Saturday night. As the first numbers came through, all campaign staff could barely stifle their excitement. It had been five years since Rachel started seriously meeting with Labour’s man in Nelson – ex top cop Brian McGurk - and discussing how to unseat Nick Smith. It has been a long five years for that team and even for longer for Rachel who, even when she a student president at NMIT over 10 years ago, you could sense would always find her way into local politics. While she lost at the election in 2017, she continued campaigning as Labour’s unpaid member for Nelson. The party could sense that their chance was coming. Down on Waimea Rd at Nick Smith’s HQ, the incumbent was looking worried but not despondent. He seemed to know his time had come. “There is a king tide and it’s not in National’s favour.” Shortly after 9pm it was clear that not even Moses couldn’t have stopped it. In the end, Rachel

won by more than 3000 votes and Nelson voted in Labour over National by more than 12000. Nick spent 24 years in the Nelson seat, another six in the Tasman seat. Before he came along, Nelson had been a safe Labour seat. It may well return to that for some time. However, he has indicated that he wants to stay on as a list MP, as the National party vote will deliver that to him. At about 9.30pm the Labour HQ got word that Nick was on his way to concede. When he arrived, they applauded. It was a lovely moment – one that was summed up by Nick in his speech to that crowd. He praised Rachel for how she had developed as a politician and someone who had obvious passion and enthusiasm for the community. He said it was a privilege serving the community and was now passing the mantle to Rachel. “I wish you the very best,” he said. “May our politics in New Zealand never become toxic and horrible like it does in other parts of the world.” The crowd replied: “Here, here.” Then it broke into a rendition of

Rachel Boyack announces her win to the Labour HQ at Saxton Pavilion on Saturday night. Photo: Charles Anderson. ‘For he’s a jolly good fellow’. The challenge for Rachel now is of significance. She is part of a government with a huge mandate, but she is also 57 on the Labour list. She has campaigned on getting a new Nelson Hospital, ensuring better housing for Nelsonians, and getting a fair day’s pay for a fair day’s work. She has also been a vocal opponent of a new ‘inland route’ highway for the city. The

challenge will be managing the expectation of the public of a first term MP. It was also curious election further down the ballot. While the Greens stood a candidate, Aaron Stallard, he actually didn’t want you to vote for him. Instead, he wanted people to party vote Green. And while ACT also had a candidate in Nelson in Chris Baillie, he too didn’t want you to vote for him. But people

still voted for Stallard, 1550 of them, and people still voted for Chris Baillie, 1123 of them. But it is Chris who will be going to Parliament as number 4 on ACT’s list. So, Nelson will have the enviable position of having three MPs in Parliament. It will be interesting to see whether they can deliver something different for the region other than the status quo that was so dominantly voted out.

Some of Q-Youth’s safe space policies include gender-neutral bathrooms, rainbow-friendly signage and normalising pronouns. Zen says normalising pronouns is about not assuming someone’s gender when using she/her, he/him or they/them when referring to someone. Q-Youth suggests this can be put into practice by following with your pronouns when you’re introducing yourself or to put it in your email by-line below your name and contact information. “We’d like to host more of these workshops for businesses and schools or whoever wants to learn how to create a queerfriendly space,” Jasmine says. “It’s all about education, people are often just scared of what they don’t understand,” she says.

Bookworms queued for hours in the rain, armed with bags, suitcases and trolleys, ready to storm Founders Park and score a bargain on Saturday morning. The annual Founders Book Fair sees hundreds of literary lovers sift through mountains of books, magazines, records, puzzles and DVDs from every genre imaginable. The ten-day event has grown from its humble beginnings in 1988 in a garage to become one of the highlights on the Nelson events calendar. The fair attracts young and old, all on the hunt for unique treasures. Irina Bell says she comes every year to replenish her family’s collection

of board games as well as find some sports autobiographies. “I just finished Kieran Read and Brendon McCullum’s books and am looking for a new one.” Irina also ensured to pick up some Dr Seuss for her young sons. John Van Turnhout was dragged along to carry books for his family but ended up buying two bags worth himself. “There is just so much good stuff, I couldn’t help myself.” Dean Schneider teaches environmental science in primary schools and uses books as rewards for his students. The Founders Book Fair runs from 17 - 26 October from 10am – 4.30pm. Entry is $2 per adult or $5 for a tenday pass. Children under 12 are free. Remember to bring a reusable bag for your books.

A call to 111 saw the arrival of the rescue helicopter. I knew the crew because I was a long-time sponsor- boy was I glad to see them! They saved my life. I am lucky to be alive.”

Natania blows away the competition Erin Bradnock There is no doubt that Nayland College student Natania Ngawhau is top brass. The multitalented trombone player has just secured her place at the New Zealand School of Music – being recognised as an outstanding musician in her audition. The 18-year-old was the recipient of four such audition awards which sees her receive a $2000 prize. “That was cool, I’ll spend that money on a new trombone,” Natania says. She also won two outstanding musician awards in the school holidays after competing in a national junior brass band competition where she was the

principal trombone player for the South Island band. The musician is also part of many local bands including the Nelson City Brass band, Nelson Symphony Orchestra and Nelson City Junior Band. She has also been selected for the National Youth Brass Band next year after placing second in an event this July. Surprisingly, Natania has only been playing the trombone for four years after a friend found an old instrument in their attic. “I was playing the trumpet at the time and she was like ‘do you want a trombone?’ and I said ‘sure’. The trombone is way cooler,” she says. Not only is she a talented musician but a talented rugby player, too. She was invited to

be an assistant coach for the Tasman Māori Women's Mako team for their Te Tau Ihu Māori South Island tournament. “Sport is a big part of my life, it keeps me sane,” she says. Natania credits her success to her music teacher, Andrew Yorkstone, who has been her mentor since the start of this year. “She’s been fantastic to work with,” Andrew says. “She’s highly attentive, highly driven and highly competitive.” Natania says she’s improved a lot this year thanks to Andrew’s tuition. “I was close to giving up playing end of last year, but he’s really helped me improve.” Looking ahead, Natania is keen to join the New Zealand Army Band after university.

A pop-up exhibition in central Nelson is giving locals a taste of Japanese puppets, art, craft, and language. ‘Pop-up Little Japan’ is on at The Shopfront Theatre on Collingwood St for the next month. Puppeteer Akiko Miyamoto is the driving force behind the idea, saying she wanted to share her culture with Nelson. “Because people cannot go

up to

to Japan at the moment, we wanted to bring people there. When people step in the building they are welcomed to Japan.” Akiko has over 30 years’ experience in theatre and television, including work in Japan, New Zealand and around the world. She has been based in Nelson since 2015. She will be performing the classic tale of Hansel and Gretel entirely in Japanese language for four shows on October 31 and November 7.

Exploring the darkness of war Nelson writer Ian Trafford will speak about his grandfather’s war diaries this weekend as part of the Nelson Arts Festival. Here he explains the origins of his new book, Into the Unknown. Alick survived World War I by the skin of his teeth, and thus so did his illicit diaries, and now my book. I called my grandfather Papa as a child, and by the time I was born into his family, he was retired and lived not more than a 10-minute drive from me. By the time I was around 10, I knew he had been to war. Each Anzac Day in Te Karaka, I remember Alick togged up in a civilian suit with a modest row of medals on his chest, standing forward of me in solidarity with other solemn men. Sometime during his retirement, Alick sent my father to his ceiling cavity to retrieve a secret package for burning – the diaries of his private war. No son could resist a peek into his father’s hidden past. They never reached the fire. Alick’s deeply hidden mysteries began to weave a moving tale, too

personal to intrude upon but too good to be destroyed. They would become hallowed documents, revered and often read. Four decades later, as I studied the diaries, moral dilemmas shouted from almost every page – how to honour this enigma of a man? Alick gave his all but he took to his diary sometimes as a heretic. He was always honest and immediate, often very personal about his mates – many of whom were blown to pieces metres away from him – and his lady loves. What would my family say? Alick Trafford returned to Gisborne physically intact, but also brought back well-concealed shell-shock baggage that would unpack during chapters of his New Zealand backcountry farmer life. In his own words, upon confession of the diaries’ existence, his story was “dynamite”.

His was a vivid and sad story: the actual truth, no punches pulled, no lies or propaganda, a record of exactly what unfolded in front of him. No censorship. I read books of heroic war exploits and they never really gelled for me. I felt I had to write this book – his book – to show the un-great war and the fact that most men were just ordinary, tough survivors. Just over two years ago my writing journey began. I already had the plot – Alick’s detailed observations and descriptions saw to that. I reorganised his diary entries, and a few saved letters, into a logical and alive narrative. I changed the tense to the present to make it more immediate. I kept his strong voice but also used my own words. I could say we both wrote this story, as if he were leaning over my shoulder. The process took me to a darkness:

Nelson’s Ian Trafford inherited his grandfather’s WW1 diaries which he turned into a book. Photo: Supplied. “In front of us, looming as the great giant, is Passchendaele, a hill that has cost us many lives,” he wrote. “Hundreds of unburied corpses are spread all about, floating in flooded craters, trapped in mud, or blown

into unrecognisable pieces. The bones of dead men show clearly, picked over by rats and washed white by the rain. There is a chapter called The English Girls. Again, I had the task of telling Papa’s secrets. “I have the terrible job of witness at a hearing for men who broke evening curfew. Our lives have been greatly condensed during this war business. It would be no trouble to turn a blind eye to men overdue from their lady friends. The army has more to worry about winning this war than men yearning for the comfort of women.” Wartime, it seems, changes everyone. Lest we forget. Ian will be joined on stage for Our Grandfathers by fellow Nelsonbased author, William Moloney.

Your Voice

Victory ‘needs vision’ for Southern Link opportunity: If like me, you have had family picnics in the Victory park, used it to run laps around, played volleyball, football, cricket, attended the Race Unity Day, played at Lark in the Park, attended outdoor Karate classes, watched kids playing, cooked bbqs, thrown sticks for your dog, sat for a quick quiet coffee, taken the kids to fly kites, ride bikes or play tag then you’ll appreciate that this simple green tree lined square is so much more than just a park. It is a hub, a community green, sports ground and amazing space used by so many people from all different ethnicities and connects the entire community in harmony and happiness. People of all ages and stages use this park and the Railway Reserve and any suggestion that any type of road through it is selfish and ill informed. The notion that this could possibly be a positive thing for the community is utter nonsense. If the negative health, noise, environmental, community severance and property price implications for this community are not enough to convince you, sadly, I doubt anything will. Where there is a huge number against any such road, I’m sorry to say that your middle-aged white stale male money will not be able to buy you what you want this time.

On behalf of all the players at Wakatu Cricket Club - you're dreaming mate. We don't "just play a bit of cricket on weekends", we also train there four days a week, including our 120 kids who we coach. Not to mention the volleyball guys who play every night, or FC Nelson who play football there in the winter. Dustin Stephen Emms-Healey Victory Square is the most used field in Nelson, in fact, the most used field in the whole South Island in my opinion. There are so many different groups in the community literally using that field every single day. Victory Square has given my community a lot of joy and happiness and we are grateful that we are still able to use it every day.

The judgement and discrimination of others in Nelson is real. I have witnessed so many LGBT people forced to take dramatic life choices to repress their true sexuality - drugs, alcohol, suicide, and sham marriages. Sexuality is not a choice, bigotry is.

Nelson Matters It has been a huge privilege being Nelson’s MP. I have had an amazing opportunity to work with thousands of Nelsonians who make this place such an entrepreneurial, caring, creative and successful community. I have given the role my everything and acknowledge the generous support of my staff, party volunteers and family. I congratulate Rachel Boyack on her election as Nelson’s MP in Labour’s landslide victory across New Zealand. She deserves extra commendation for becoming Nelson’s first woman MP. It is another important step alongside our Mayor Rachel Reese in the ongoing journey of ensuring equality in our community.

The provisional election results show I have been elected to Parliament on National’s list. I will need to wait for the count of 480,000 special votes and the final election result announcement on Friday 6 November. I will have three important tasks if these results confirm my continued role as a Parliamentarian. New Zealand is facing the most difficult economic and uncertain times in a generation. There are times when Government and Parliament has little impact on people’s daily lives but this is a period of extraordinary intervention. The Covid pandemic has Government passing rushed laws, borrowing billions, putting unprecedented limits on people’s

freedoms and making huge economic decisions impacting on business. These have been necessary but require careful scrutiny. I have had the experience of helping chart New Zealand’s recovery from two previous recessions. I know how new laws can work and fail. My top priority will be constructively contributing to New Zealand’s economic recovery. I particularly want to ensure that the $150 billion being borrowed is spent wisely, a key role for the opposition. We owe it to the taxpayers of the future who will be repaying this huge debt for decades. National has a huge task ahead to rebuild the trust and con-

91 prices aren't relevant anymore. Barely any of our fleet should be on it. At least 50 per cent are 95 minimum by manufacturer. (No, your mechanic didn't "retune" your computer-controlled engine to run 91.

fidence of New Zealanders. It is always difficult to challenge a first term Government and made more so by the extraordinary circumstances of the Christchurch Mosque attacks and the Covid emergency. But we have not helped ourselves. National needs unity and discipline. My experience from when we successfully rebuilt National after the 2002 election drubbing will be relevant as we recover from 2020. National’s core values of rewarding hard work and enterprise, protecting New Zealand’s freedoms, valuing family and supporting community are as relevant today as when our party was founded 84 years ago. I will also, if confirmed as a list

MP be a voice for Nelson. I will work across party to ensure our region gets a fair share of Government resources and that our public services are improved. Nelson can only gain from having Chris Baillie the new ACT MP, Rachel Boyack from Labour and myself all advocating for our region. I conclude in thanking everyone who voted and commend Nelson on a turnout of over 80%. We need to cherish our peaceful democracy. Politics globally is becoming more hateful and polarised. We need to work together to get through these challenging times. Advert.

Parents, children and teachers from the past decade came together last Friday to celebrate Auckland Point Kindergarten - Matangi Awhio’s 10year milestone with shared cake, kai and waiata. Among those celebrating were Joanie Wilson and Wendy Logan, who were instrumental in establishing the bi-cultural kindergarten in the city centre. Joanie was the school’s first headteacher who had the vision for a kindergarten connected to Auckland Point School that had “true bicultural ways of being and doing”. Joanie says they wanted to recognise and celebrate the kaupapa of the land by honouring Te Tiriti o Waitangi in their holistic practises at Matangi Awhio. Matangi Awhio is also the name of the maunga sheltering the school and a place of rich cultural significance to Nelson. Māori presence in the area is said to date back as far as 850AD and the kāinga (village) was a Māori community for centuries in Nelson as well as a significant place of trade following European arrival. Joanie says it was Wendy, the former chief executive of the Nelson Kindergarten Association, who

allowed her “vison to fly”. Wendy, who served 24-years as chief executive, was also instrumental in creating the Teen Parent Unit hosted by Auckland Point School since 2013. The unit allows young mothers to further their education in a baby-friendly environment. Wendy describes the success and bicultural nature of Matangi Awhio as “a wonderful thing”. Current headteacher Helen Durbridge says they are “lucky over the 10-years to have grown into the community we have today”.

Face-lift for iconic Nelson local

Nelson’s much loved local – The Vic - has now got a whole new look. It’s more than 13 years since the old Victorian Rose pub became a Mac’s Brewery Bar and now the Williams family, who have owned and run it for 10 years, have upgraded it to a more modern public house style. The Vic Macs Brew Bar was closed for refurbishment last week then reopened on Friday Oct 16th and is now ’The Vic Public House.’ During the weekend of the reopening, there was live music on Saturday night, a “Love ya Locals’ hamper competition and spot prizes and vouchers. Lots of Nelson people came along and joined in the 10th birthday cel-

ebrations. “The Vic has been a pub in the heart of Nelson since 1992 when Nelson City Council vacated the 131-year-old building and it became The Victorian Rose Tavern,” says Operations Manager and joint owner Howard Williams. “We are privileged to be part of the story of these heritage premises, and excited to bring the ‘old girl’ to her next stage of life. Our everpopular menu will be supported by a greater range of craft beers and local wines and our team are enjoying the pub’s new look and feel.” He added that the renovation was completed exactly to plan thanks to the immense efforts and support of

Major structural works were carried out in 2013 for earthquake strengthening.

Ongoing commitment to the industry

Owner Ian Williams, who is also President of the Nelson Tasman Hospitality Association branch, commented that post-Covid hospitality is a struggling industry. “As a sector we are doing our very best to work together as

Times are extremely tough but we’re doing all we can to make the best of our premises and offerings, and The Vic upgrade is just one example of the ongoing commitment we have to this industry. Every outlet needs public support in these challenging times, so we encourage people to get out and about in the venues and support local.” It’s been 10 years since Ian and his wife Sally moved to Nelson. “My background is in HR, leadership, training and development, and

Zoe was still in high school and we decided that because they were all in hospitality and with my business background, we would like to run a family business.” Zoe then finished high school and came to Nelson, and Ian and Sally had always wanted to live here, so that was one of the reasons.

There was live music on Saturday night, a “Love ya Locals’ hamper competition plus spot prizes and vouchers. they came here to look for a place to buy. “It’s a real family business. The fact that we’ve been doing it for 10 years is testament to the fact that we can work well together.” Five years ago, Zoe decided to go back to England for some different work experience and Chris also did some chefing at ski resorts in France and ended up in Bristol, which is where the family used to live. The family also own Burger Culture which they established three years ago, and which took out the award for Best Restaurant at the 2019 Ōra King Salmon Nelson Hospitality Awards. “The concept for this business came largely from Zoe and Chris’s experience of looking at different places in the UK, thinking about how burger bars work and also the street art feature. So, as a family, they have all been able to grow in the business, because Phil is the general manager of both outlets, Chris is the executive chef over both, Zoe looks after Burger Culture, and Howard is the operations manager at The Vic.” Although Sally is a director in the

Vic Public House, people will notice the menu has been altered slightly in response to trends and what people are likely to enjoy. “Because it’s not a brew bar, there will be a wider range of beers on offer that are not just Macs but other Lion brands, too.” The Vic Public House has a great team of managers and staff onboard. “They are really loyal staff who enjoy working for a family business. We have staff who have left and come back again, which is really nice, as well as some people we have sponsored to get their immigration, and there’s a couple of staff members who have been with us from day one.” Ian says hospitality is hard work and everyone works ‘really hard.’ “It’s great to have these two venues that are different but complement each other, which is all part of what the top of Trafalgar Street is all about.” To find out more, visit The Vic Public House on Facebook.

Captain Tia Muddle says, after a successful local season her side is primed to make history. “This has been a great year for Suburbs women, coming second in the cup and league.” Tia says the fact the club is able to have two teams compete in Christchurch is testament to the growth of the women’s game in the region. “This year we are fortunate enough to be playing alongside another women’s Nelson Suburbs team. We are absolutely stoked that we were able to put in two female teams for this tournament as it is a great learning experience for them and shows how much women’s football is increasing in Nelson.” Some generous contributions from local businesses on this page, and a successful quiz night, has allowed both teams to

pearance. “It’s good to know what it’s like.” After two tournaments with FC Nelson, Tia transferred to Suburbs in 2018. She is confident of a far stronger showing than its 2019 campaign, with Suburbs managing to score just one goal and take one win from its four games,

but says the tournament is less about winning than it is about gaining vital experience from playing quality opposition. “Our goal is to play the best we can, this has always been a great experience for us to get the chance to take on some strong opposition.” The 19-year-old says, with only

six top tier women’s teams in Nelson, the tournament provides a perfect opportunity to test themselves against some stronger opposition. “In Nelson there are not a lot of teams, so it will be good to play against different sides and to see how we compare with them.” It won’t be all business for the women though, as they intend to make a stop at the hot pools for some much-needed recovery after what is sure to be an intense three days of football. Nelson Suburbs learned a tough lesson from last year’s trip south, conceding ten goals to the Wellington Diamonds, Halswell United and the Queenstown Rovers, while picking up a win over Selwyn United. Tia says they have been fortunate to benefit from some quality coaches which has really helped the squad. “A big thanks to Matt (Mullet) Watkinson and Colin Robinson for coaching us in preparation for this tournament.” Suburbs are determined to defy its underdog tag and cause some upsets this year. “This year has seen an even bigger push to make this tournament happen as other teams have missed the opportunities of other tournaments because of the Covid lockdown.”

Mako massacred in Auckland While the Harbour loss was humbling, Saturday’s defeat by Auckland was a humiliation for the Mako. Serious questions will be asked of Tasman's chances of going back to back after the defending champions were crushed 31-10 at Eden Park. The Mako hardly fired a shot as they were thoroughly out-played, out-enthused and out-classed by a rampant Auckland outfit. A frustrated Mako skipper David Havili said the loss was pretty tough to swallow. “We need to look at ourselves, we

can’t leak points like that in this competition or we will just get put away. Our game just comes back down to our mind set and making sure that we turn up on Saturday with the right attitude.” This weekend Tasman will return to Trafalgar Park to take on Southland. Kick off on Sunday is 2.05pm.

Sailor says she dreams to one day become the first Black Fern and Olympic gold medalist. Known as ‘Sailor Moon’ or ‘Shorty’, Sailor is constantly punching above her weight as the smallest fighter at the gym. “She goes hard and puts everything she has in it,” Dion says. “She has sparred with her brothers and some of the boys here give her a good tag now and then to keep her honest. So, she will be prepared for it.” Brother Noah says he has no qualms watching his baby sister fight as she is more than capable of holding her own. “She can take a punch and also give one.” Sailor has yet to be knocked out but isn’t scared of the possibility, saying it is all part of the sport. She is certainly not afraid to be in the ring, but Sailor admits to

Nelson Speedway blasts Suburbs juniors into action with fireworks make history in Taupō

editorial@nelsonweekly.co.nz

Nelson Suburbs have returned from the one of the biggest youth football tournaments in New Zealand with some prized silverware. The annual John McCartney Tournament in Taupō saw 1400 players take part, 27000 donuts sold, and hundreds of goals scored across the three days. Nelson weren’t just there to make up the numbers either, with its 13th grade side taking out its division without conceding a single goal. Suburbs went through its eight games unbeaten, winning seven with one game ending in a draw. The club also enjoyed success in other divisions with the 12th grade team coming in fifth and the 15th grade finishing fourth. Nelson Suburbs director of football Ryan Stewart says it was great to see their teams going up against the North Island’s best. For full results go to https://tafcmc. leaguerepublic.com/l/index.html

Milestone Homes Top of the South Speedway bursts into action on Saturday night with its annual Coca-Cola fireworks display. It will double up with the Trackman Trophy night held over from the rainedout opening meeting. The new clay surface has proved successful with four unofficial lap records broken, including Connor Rangi claiming the fastest ever lap on the track - going round in just 11.38 seconds. The junior club is back up-and-running for kids aged up to 12-years-old with brand new T-shirts for club members. New Zealand stock car champion Ben Smith also set a lap record at the second practice. He has spent the off season giving the car a good tidy up as he prepares to defend his title at Napier in January. The newly-introduced Quarter Midgets will also be racing. The class is for our youngest drivers who are aged from 8-15 years old. There are a couple of added Super Stock drivers - Anthony McKenzie returning and Josh Nell stepping up to the class this year in the iconic, ex-Jared Gray

Nelson's tee-ball queen looks to pass the bat Locally Owned and Operated

Over the next few months, sports reporter Jonty Dine is 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. After suffering a career-ending injury playing softball, Julie Brockie did not wallow. Instead, she opted to use her skills and experience to mentor the next generation of softball stars. Julie helped resurrect the Peanut Tee-Ball league in 2008, wanting to give back to the sport she loves. “It was quite a commitment but the families always helped and I just loved seeing the children’s confidence grow as they came each Saturday. They would be really shy at first, and then they’d be running along.” The league was initially run by former Black Sock Marty Grant who helped Julie get started. She would often have up to 30 children under five attending her Saturday morning sessions. Julie put the ‘fun’ in fundamentals through drills such as squashing the banana as you run around the bases, imagining the ball as broccoli as you smash it off the tee and acting like a gorilla when

you crouch down to field. “It was so rewarding giving them an opportunity to have fun in a safe, supportive environment.” Julie’s love affair with sport began 55 years ago at Enner Gylnn School where, as a five-year-old, she always wanted to beat the boys at rounders. She went on to play representative football, basketball, netball and softball before a freak hamstring injury permanently sidelined her and she took over the peanut league. “There was never a day when I didn’t want to get up, put all the gear in the car and get down there.” However, in 2017, Julie stepped down to spend more time with her family. She says it was an incredibly difficult decision to leave the role

Photo: Jonty Dine. she had cherished for eight years. “I wanted to get married, do some kayaking, and spend time with the grandchildren.” Julie desperately searched for a replacement but to no avail, meaning the league was dissolved. “People still ask me if anyone is taking the peanut league, I’m

quite happy to help them get started.” Thanks to Julie’s exceptional organisation, the role just requires someone to walk in and take over. “We have all the equipment and uniforms sitting waiting for someone.” She says the environment

nourishes the young players. “Seeing the little ones enjoy it and learn some basic skills, even how to line up for their turn, is fantastic.” If you would like to offer your services running the peanut league, contact Julie at ja.brock@ xtra.co.nz

Cricket returns to region Jonty Dine Reporter

jonty@nelsonweekly.co.nz

Defending champions Stoke/ Nayland made a strong statement over the weekend as the cricket season finally got underway in Nelson. Round one of the 110-over competition was washed out and rain again threatened play on Saturday. However, a shortened day still ensured plenty of action with a blockbusting century from Wanderers' Harsh Visavadiya. After a delayed start, Stoke/ Nayland took no time in ripping through Waimea Toi Toi United's top order at Marsden Rec. With chief destroyer Dylan

Edington taking a fivewicket haul, Waimea Toi-Toi collapsed to be all out for just 52. Only Sam Baxendine managed to get to double figures, top scoring with eleven while four batsmen were dismissed for ducks. In reply, Stoke reached 200/5 in 44 overs to claim a five wicket win, Ben Homan top scoring with 81. At the Lower Ngawhatu, Visavadiya's century for Wanderers wasn't enough to prevent a draw with Nelson College. Visavadiya's hundred came off just 103 balls and included seven sixes, his side declaring on 177/7 after 45 overs.

Jonty Raxworthy's 46 ensured Nelson College would share the points as they reached 118/5 after 33 overs. There was another draw at the Botanics, ACOB posting 202/8, Sam Berkett top scoring with 45 and Campbell McLean claiming 3/27. Wakatu laboured to 128/4 in reply, McLean also top scoring with 42. Results: Stoke/Nayland 200/5 def Waimea Toi Toi 52 by 5 wickets Wanderers 177/7 drew with Nelson College 118/5 ACOB 202/8 drew with Wakatu 128/4

Black Ferns coming to Nelson Jonty Dine Following the All Blacks historic test in Nelson in 2018, their female counterparts are set to debut at Trafalgar Park later this year. The Black Ferns will take on a New Zealand Barbarians team on November 21. The match is one of three to replace the scheduled 2021 Test Series following Covid-19 restrictions. Tasman Rugby Union CEO Tony Lewis says, not only is the announcement great news for the union, but also for the city and region. “We wanted the Top of the South to have an international event and the Black Ferns was an obvious one.” Tony says to have both the All Blacks and Black Ferns play their first-ever matches in Nelson within the space of two years shows the faith NZ Rugby has in the Tasman Union. “It shows we are bloody good at putting on events, our staff are superb.” The squad will spend seven days in Nelson with a number of events

planned around celebrating women in sport and business as well as school visits. Tony says he hopes to make Nelson the home of the Black Ferns and is confident of a bumper crowd. “I’d be very saddened and surprised if the whole Top of the South don’t get behind this, it is a once in a lifetime opportunity to support and embrace female rugby in our region.” New Zealand Rugby (NZR) CEO Mark Robinson says the opportunity for fans to see New Zealand’s best female players back in black was an exciting prospect. “We have been treated to an outstanding provincial competition which has captured the excitement of the women’s game and this series will give the best of the best an opportunity to vie for higher honours. Selection for Rugby World Cup 2021 is no doubt on all the players’ minds.” Mark says it is great to be able to take the team to Nelson for the first time.
