Heartbreak after burglary ‘I don't know where my grandfather's ashes are’

Jonty Dine A Stoke man has been left heartbroken after his grandfather's ashes and son's

baby teeth were stolen in a brazen burglary.

Douglas Lamond's Palm Ave home was broken into last Friday afternoon, leaving his family

devastated by the significant sentimental loss.

"Why would anyone do this? Go into someone's home and take something so personal? You

need to be able to rest in peace and now I don't know where my grandfather is."

It has been an emotional week for Douglas, his eight-year-old son

Leith and mother Gina.

"I'm heartbroken. We pass him around each family member

"I thought I was going to throw up," he said after the match.

Sam was just four days out from surgery after the break occurred in last week's semi-final against Waimea Old Boys.

However, there was no thought of sitting out the big dance as he looked to send his father into retirement on an historic note.

to look after him, he was my responsibility and he's gone," says Douglas.

The family broke down as they described the feeling of complete violation and fear.

They believe, due to the nature of the items taken, that this was an act of revenge.

"The sentimental loss goes throughout our family," Gina says.

Her father's remains were inside a bright red heart shaped urn.

"It's so disrespectful to take someone's ashes."

She says her grandson has found the experience very traumatic.

"Leith was a mess on Friday night, he was so scared and he's made himself a weapon in case they come back."

The burglary took place between 12.30pm and 3pm on Friday July 2.

HARRY’S FISH SHOP

The burglars attempted to break into the front door but were unable to do so, instead ripping off the window stays to enter the house.

Among the items taken were a USB containing all of Leith's baby photos, jewellery and trinkets of deceased family members, Leith's first tooth and an antique bayonet collection.

Items left included a large flatscreen TV, a tablet, cash, tools, and a car.

Douglas says he was expecting the ashes to turn up on the front step today once someone realised what they were.

The family is offering $2000 for the return of the ashes, no questions asked.

A home security camera managed to capture blurry images of two suspects with their faces covered, one wearing a black hoodie with 19 printed on the back.

‘Crazy’ demand for commercial property Staff Reporter Demand for commercial property is booming in the region, with a shortage of industrial land.

About 60 would-be buyers recently vied for just 10 prime industrial development sites in a new Richmond subdivision, with sites fetching a total of $25 million in unconditional sales in less than a month.

Local Colliers commercial broker Geoff Faulkner says businesses were clamouring for bare land on which to build premises for a variety of uses, including agriculture, aquaculture, construction, logistics and engineering.

He says the region has never seen the likes of demand for this type of property, which was once home to a large piggery back in the 1950s, but more recently housed a number of sheds.

Geoff says there was massive interest across the board.

“Businesses are really doubling down on industrial property in Nelson.”

Geoff says when this large block was released to the market it unleashed a whole new wave of demand from businesses seeking to expand and others wanting to design build for their specific purposes.

Berryfields Crossing is one big development in Richmond that is capturing the market’s attention. Photo: RNZ. "Nelson has been growing very very well for quite a few years and we've just slowly got to a point that there was a shortage of industrial land, and recently as the new sites have been developed and opened up to the market, they've just gone like hot cakes.”

Fifty nine buyers recently contested 10 prime industrial brownfields sites on Quarantine Rd, in a newly-developed subdivision that was marketed

by Faulkner and colleague Paul Jarvie. Ranging from 3000sq m to 2.3 ha, the sites collectively netted nearly $25 million in unconditional sales.

The project started with Patrick Fontein, a director of developer Studio D4, working closely with storage container company Boxman, which had been located on the Quarantine

Rd site for 22 years. Boxman is expanding into the 2.3 ha site.

Studio D4 and the Colliers brokers carried out considerable research into the needs of large industrial occupiers in Nelson, as input into the overall Studio D4 masterplan.

Quarantine Rd is one of the key arterial routes providing access to Nelson Airport and is close to the CBD. Geoff says that together with scarce supply, industrial operators are being buoyed by low interest rates.

He says the demand was not just for industrial land.

"All areas are running hot at the moment - phenomenally busy across office and light commercial, industrial is crazy and retail is steady."

Nelson's lost projects: Rutherford Park Playground Kate Russell It was touted to be one of Nelson City’s biggest drawcards for families.

The Rutherford Park destination playground was first mooted in 2015 with the aim to boost a struggling city centre.

Mayor Rachel Reese said at the time that the focus of the playground was to create a “family destination” and parents, kids, and big kids at heart were excited when they caught a whiff of the proposal.

So, Nelson City Council set aside $600,000 for the project in its Long Term Plan - with the hope of securing extra partnership funding.

Council approved a business plan that stated it would be “an attraction that people are willing to spend time at, therefore increasing their time in the CBD”.

However, the money allocated ended up being “insufficient” for a destination playground and focus turned to higher priorities like getting the Trafalgar Centre finished. There were also staff shortages in the parks and reserves area.

In 2019, the focus changed to creating an urban park in the CBD. The idea for an inner-city play space has been floating around

Rutherford Park as it is today. Photo: Kate Russell. for more than a decade.

In the council’s Heart of Nelson central city strategy from 2009, the development of a ‘teenage adventure playground’ and ‘themed family adventure play area’ were marked as priorities.

“The benefits of this are numerous, including increased inner-city vibrancy, and more importantly, encouraging retail spend in ancillary services such as cafes,” it said.

A ‘family fun water park’, possibly located in the Riverside Pool Reserve, was also a priority in the plan.

“Nelson needs to provide a site with water play features for young children using recycled water, demonstrating oxygenation, electro-ionisation of pathogens and UV water treatments,” it stated.

Nelson city councillor Pete Rainey, who was on council at

the time the Rutherford Park project was gaining momentum, says a permanent playground is “undoubtedly” something that the central city needs.

“There is hardly any space for people to dwell in the CBD - a dedicated space for people to play.”

He says the temporary pop-up playground on Halifax St has indicated that there is an appetite for a permanent feature.

“The enthusiasm hasn’t gone away. People want to see the city as not just a place to shop and I think Rutherford Park would have been a brilliant site for a playground.”

Pete adds that many projects that get “ping-ponged” between councils end up getting lost.

“And, when they get lost, they never come back. There’s a saying that’s relevant here - ‘just do it’.”

The mayor says creating more

Picton’s popular water play area. Photo: Supplied. open spaces for children and young people is important to council.

“The popular pop-up playground on Halifax St is an excellent example of what can be achieved with the creative use of space.

The community has welcomed the addition of a pump track and play area at Corder Park, and we have started work on the Stoke Youth Park.”

She says a small playground project was initially included in the 201525 Long Term Plan, and then expanded on in 2018/28 with an increased budget, and Rutherford Park as the suggested location.

“Since 2018, the playground has always been scheduled for completion in 2024. In the 201920 Annual Plan, the playground’s location was changed to the city centre to improve access and help make our inner city a welcoming

and inclusive environment for people of all ages. A site would be chosen once the City Centre Spatial Plan was complete.”

Funding of around $1.4m is allocated across years 2024/25 and 2025/26 of the latest Long Term Plan specifically for play spaces, but this can be brought forward if necessary. Council will also seek partnership with other groups to build on this budget.

“With a growing number of people expected to live centrally in the coming years, having more space for play and being in the open is essential.”

Speaking to the water park proposal, she says over the next two years, council will be undertaking a study to look at the future of Riverside and Nayland pools. “There is an opportunity to consider different play opportunities as part of this study.”

Nelson flights booming: Air New Zealand in Nelson is operating at 102 per cent of its pre-Covid capacity, the company’s chief executive told a conference last week. Greg Foran told the Aspire conference at Annesbrook Church about Air New Zealand’s journey through the pandemic and that there were some difficult decisions that had to be made when the airline was losing about $175m in cash per month during the height of the crisis. Now it was more positive news. However, Greg said the future success of the company largely depended on the success of New Zealand’s vaccination programme.

Victory lights up for Matariki Kate Russell Reporter

kate@nelsonweekly.co.nz

Victory shone brightly at its annual Matariki celebration on Friday night.

Around 700 people gathered at the community centre on the cold and clear evening to mark the Māori New Year with the rise of the nine stars of the Matariki or Pleiades cluster.

The event started just after 3pm with hot soup, followed by performances from

Victory Primary School students and community groups, including marimba, fire poi, story-telling, and African drumming.

The hāngi and vegetarian curry was then served before the lantern hīkoi, which this year travelled through the school, up Vanguard St, and back down the Railway Reserve, which was adorned with lights.

This year, NMIT students made four new baskets for the hāngi, which will be available for other community groups to use.

Victory’s annual Matariki celebration began in 2008 and organiser Steve McLuckie says this year’s event was just as popular as past occasions.

“I am delighted with how it went. After not having an event last year because of Covid-19, it was awesome to get people back together again.”

He says the turnout was “fantastic”.

“It was an awesome reflection of our diverse community, and it was great to see the school hall brimming with whānau coming to see their

tamariki performing.”

Steve says he would like to thank everyone who came together to make the night a success.

“From those who made the kai, to the performers, to those who helped with the clean-up they all made it a really special evening for our community.”

Founders Park was also the site of a large Matariki celebration on Saturday with hundreds flowing through its doors to enjoy music, kai and a huge fireworks display which lit up the city.

Long Term Plan adopted: Nelson's locked in a plan to look after its land as well as responding to the challenge of climate change, says Mayor Rachel Reese. Last week the Nelson City Council adopted its 2021-2031 Long Term Plan which was the culmination of months of work. Council says the plan has social, cultural, economic and environmental wellbeing of Nelson at its heart. Submissions from the public supported the inclusion of support to alleviate the housing crisis, taking proactive action on climate change, providing improved facilities, and continuing work to ensure Nelson’s core infrastructure meets growing demand.

Leaders chosen for workforce group: Two local leaders have been chosen to identify and support better ways of meeting the region's future workforce needs. The Government has appointed Ali Boswijk and Justin Carter as co-chairs of the Nelson Tasman Regional Skills Leadership Group (RSLG) for up to three years. This group aims to identify and support better ways of meeting future skills and workforce needs in our regions and cities, through improved coordination and workforce planning.

Going bonkers Cawthron Scitec Expo is back about books

Seventeen teams from local colleges competed in the Regional Readers Cup Competition on Monday.

Teams of five each read six books over the past months which they were then questioned on. Each person specialised in one or two books. Waimea College’s year nine students Xanthe Southward and Isla Hill loved everything about the competition, which their team won. Xanthe says she enjoys the teamwork and the books chosen for them to read, while Isla loved dressing up. Waimea College’s librarian Naomi Chapman says it is always a fun and vibrant event.

Staff Reporter

The annual Cawthron Scitec Expo is returning this year with more than $8000 in prizes to encourage students to explore their interests through science.

Event co-ordinator Karen Goodger says planning is well underway for this year’s expo which will showcase science projects from primary, intermediate and secondary school students at Founders Heritage Park on September 21 and 22.

“We only hold a full expo for both primary and secondary students every second year. This year is super-exciting because it comes after last year’s Covid-induced hiatus, and also coincides with Cawthron’s 100-year celebrations.

“We’re really looking forward to seeing the ideas, inquiry and innovation that comes forward from the next generation following such a defining period in so many people’s lives.”

Students are being encouraged to start their Scitec Expo projects over the upcoming July school holidays. A Scitec Expo holiday workshop is being held at Nelson Provincial Museum on

Wednesday 14 July, prior to online entry registrations opening on the first day of Term 3.

Nelson Intermediate STEAM team leader Sarah Johns – a member of the Scitec Expo organising committee – says the great thing about Scitec is the opportunity it gives tamariki to lead their own learning.

“They can take an interest that means the most to them and turn it into something that is a springboard for meaningful and authentic learning and can then contribute to the learning of others. Our rangatahi really thrive on this experience.”

Cawthron Institute has supported the Scitec Expo for nearly 20 years and has run it for nearly a decade as part of the Trust Board’s commitment to invest in sciencebased community initiatives, projects and education activities in Te Tau Ihu. The Expo is also supported by Nelson Pine Industries as a major sponsor, alongside dozens of other businesses and organisations that contribute prizes and staff that judge at the event.

Serving up free school lunches in Nelson Making more than 400 lunches a day for the Government’s free healthy school lunch programme is no easy task. Kate Russell finds out how the lunches get from the kitchen to the tummies of Auckland Point School and Victory Primary School kids.

It’s 8.30am on a Monday morning and staff inside a 40-foot shipping container kitchen at Auckland Point School are getting ready to prepare 420 lunches.

Over a week, that’s 2100 nutritious meals that will fuel students until the end of each day.

The Ministry of Education’s Ka Ora, Ka Ako Healthy School Lunches Programme expanded into Nelson schools this year, creating new jobs along the way.

Eligible schools can self-manage or receive meals from a provider.

Libelle Group is the chosen provider for Auckland Point and Victory schools, as well as Tāhunanui School whose lunches are made at Nelson College for Girls.

On the menu today is macaroni cheese.

“That’s definitely a favourite,” says Tracy Peacock, senior operations manager for Libelle Group.

The menu for the rest of the week includes a beef and cheese salad wrap, chicken ranch pasta salad, a chicken mayo sandwich, and butter chicken and rice.

Snacks include yoghurt,

pretzels, veggie sticks, hummus, bliss balls, and fruit.

For vegetarians, meat is replaced with falafel, tofu, vegetarian mince, and chickpeas. Gluten and dairy-free alternatives are offered, too.

“We have a menu development team, and we get guidance from the ministry, and then they check our menus to make sure it's nutritionally-balanced over a week,” says Tracy.

Parents and teachers also get the opportunity to provide feedback through surveys.

The reviews are certainly positive from Auckland Point School’s youngest students.

“I’m eating the whole thing,” says six-year-old Aisha Osman, while Halo van Boxel, 5, starts on her second helping.

Auckland Point School principal Sonya Hockley says the children are “absolutely loving” the lunches.

“They sit together at tables with a knife and fork, with teachers to support them. They all come flying in and there is so much social learning.”

Nachos and wraps were some

“They come every day really excited for lunchtime, and a lot of children are eating more than I think they would normally.”

Sonya says the benefits also extend to the classroom, with noticeable differences to students’ attention and ability to stay on task.

“Children are much more settled in the afternoon.”

Any leftover food that the children don’t want to take home goes to their Enviroschools coordinator’s pig, Betty, while the containers used are all biodegradable apart from the tin foil.

Meanwhile, the principal of Victory Primary School, Dan

George, says it's more than just food on the table for their students.

“It's the whanaungatanga around coming together to eat and the learning that sits alongside it.

As a diverse school, we have a diverse range of taste buds, but children are trying new things and enjoying the experience of sharing kai every lunchtime.”

The timeless appeal of leather.

Whether it's rustic & vintage, sleek & modern or something in between, a quality leather sofa is a statement piece for any home.

Not only will its style stand the test of time, treated right, it can be passed down from generation to generation.

It was a clear March morning when Tim Skinner received an email.

It was from Nelson City Council staff telling him and other councillors not to attend a meeting that morning.

There was a protest outside Civic House and the building could not be accessed. Then he received a call telling him the same thing. The meeting was adjourned. Then, finding the doors to Civic House blocked, Tim still tried to enter, ostensibly to attend a meeting that he knew did not exist.

Blocking the entrance was a woman named Anne Smith.

She had chained herself the door. Tim tried to get past, pushing her in the process.

It was a brisk July morning when councillors gathered around the council table to declare one-by-one that “I have an open mind” on the issue of whether to penalise Tim on the matter before them.

A code of conduct complaint had been laid by Mayor Rachel Reese. An independent investigator had been brought in to get to the bottom of the circumstance. Now, the issue before them was whether to accept that investigator’s report.

It found that Tim had breached the code of conduct, largely because he had acted in a way that was below the expectations that councillors set themselves.

According to the code they agreed to, they are to act in a manner that is above the way an average person on the street might act. Ignoring several warnings, trying to get into the

Councillor Tim Skinner was found to have breached the Nelson City Council’s code of conduct. Photo: File. building when he was expressly told not to, and then going onto the Nelson App Facebook page to defend his actions and diminish the concerns of others, including his council colleagues, was “not wise”, according to Bruce Robertson, the investigator.

Bruce, a local government veteran of 40 years, told councillors that it was clear, thanks to CCTV, that Tim did push Anne Smith and Tim agreed he did. Tim also received a police warning over the incident.

It was inferred that councillors aren’t meant to do that, no matter what they thought of a particular protest.

Earlier, a Simpson Grierson lawyer had told councillors that: “Code of conduct complaints are always quite fraught.”

This was no different. It was an uncomfortable experience for

many of the councillors who felt it difficult to sit in judgment of their fellow councillor.

Tim had support in the gallery who occasionally heckled councillors for uttering comments they deemed to be out of line.

In the end, however, all councillors declared they had an open mind. And they all agreed that Tim did, in fact, breach the code of conduct and that he should be held accountable for it. That meant offering a “genuine and fulsome public apology”, as well as being stood down from his committee chair role for six weeks.

Tim already had an apology prepared and read it straight after the vote was cast. He had learned a lesson, he said, and would be more careful in the future.

It was noted, including by Anne Smith, that if that had come three months earlier, straight after the incident, and if he had acted in a manner above the standards of someone one the street, then there would not have been any process needed at all. That process had meant hundreds of council staff hours, no doubt thousands of ratepayer dollars and a large mental toll on Anne, Tim and others.

Some councillors noted that we all make mistakes, but they believed in second chances.

Deputy mayor Judene Edgar said there were lessons for all of us in the episode, about the impact of our behaviour on others.

More than anything, though, everyone wanted to move on.

Nelson’s lost projects: Kirby Lane container mall: Honestly, jogging our memories of these lost projects is just getting depressing.

Oh what could have been. Instead, Nelson is the stuck in the mud. Olwen Murphy

Nelson looks like one big ‘lost project’ these days.

So sad to see my old hometown looking so soulless. Rachel Kerr

Nothing nice about Nelson City, it's all ideas and unfilled promises. Let's move forward and actually do and complete some of these great ideas.

Nelson is looking tired, and it's being left behind. Cindy Rigg

If Christchurch can do it, then why the hell can’t Nelson? Sammie Jay Ess

Feeling less and less willing to just go walk the streets and enjoy Nelson. Now it’s merely for an essential stop at one shop and move on. Nige Burgess

100 per cent agree Nelson has fallen behind and lost the game. To be honest, I dread going into Nelson nowadays - it just feels so depressing.

Of course there was a crash on a straight bit of road in Nelson! Danny Frans

On a straight road? Had to be idiots on cellphones as usual. Terry Beach

Slow speed limits for Hope, Brightwater and Wakefield: I say this every time there is a speed decrease - a high percentage of the time speed isn't the issue, it's either a mechanical malfunction or driver error. Let's be honest, Hope is a long straight stretch of road, so if you crash on that maybe you need to look at your driving.

I get the whole ‘you’re only as strong as your weakest link’ but how many times does the chain have to fail before you work on strengthening the chain? Surely there must be something we can do to all become better, more courteous drivers.

Esther Lock’s history of service

13

Esther Georgina Lock began her public life in the shadow of her husband, Nelson’s 13th Mayor, William Lock. However, Esther soon established her own place in the Nelson’s history.

Esther Lock came to prominence at the beginning of the First World War, in her role of Mayoress. She established a committee of 43 local women who collected garments and money for the relief of those affected by the war in Great Britain.

This need became more localised when New Zealand troops were sent to the front, and Esther instigated and presided over other charitable organisations like the Belgian Relief Fund, the Lady Liverpool Fund and Red Cross. She spent many hours organising donations and fund-raising events.

In June 1915, when William was defeated in his mayoralty bid, a deputation from the Lady Liverpool committee approached Esther and asked her to remain as their chairwoman. It was reported she agreed “in a cheerful and self-sacrificing manner”.

For her war work, Esther was awarded the Belgian government’s Queen Elisabeth Medal. She was one of 33 New Zealand women to receive the honour recognising women who raised thousands of

pounds as well as sending tonnes of relief supplies for Belgian citizens throughout the war years. In 1918, Esther received an MBE from the British government for her contribution to the war effort.

William was re-elected Mayor between 1921-1927, so Esther spent a total of eight years as Mayoress. Around 1926 she was the first woman in the district to be appointed a Justice of the Peace.

Many organisations benefitted from Esther’s support. A major one was the Plunket Society.

She was part of a Plunket committee which began raising funds in February 1936 to build Plunket and restrooms in Trafalgar Square, now home to FlameDaisy Glass Design.

The new building opened in December 1936. Amazingly, the committee had both raised the money and completed the building in just 11 months.

In 1937, when Esther stepped down as Plunket’s president

after a five-year term, her connection with the society had spanned 24 years. It was noted that the new Plunket restrooms would become a fitting monument to her.

With the coming of World War Two, Esther was again involved in local relief work, notably on the Nelson Central Relief Committee’s milk subcommittee, which supplied milk to young children, and the Women’s National Reserve, which urged women to take up jobs left vacant by enlisted and conscripted men.

She was also involved with Nelson Health Camp Association and Crippled Children’s Society.

Esther Lock, JP, MBE, lived in Nelson until 1954, passing away in Wellington in 1955 aged 88, as one of Nelson’s lesser-known woman heroes.

The Nelson Historical Society meets 7.30pm-9pm St Stephens Church, Tahunanui Drive on the second Monday of month. $2 at door. On 12 July the talk will be about photographer FN Jones Jnr, with Darryl Gallagher, of the Nelson Provincial Museum.

Students create a plastic ocean Erin Bradnock

Nelson Intermediate School students have worked hard on their Te Ramaroa Nelson Light Festival submission this year. Photo: Erin Bradnock.

Octopuses, kina and a whale shark are just some of the plastic creations brought to life

by Nelson Intermediate School students for this year’s Te Ramaroa Nelson Light Festival.

NIS students are creating the underwater world, “Moana of Hope and Light”, to highlight plastic pollution and its impact on our oceans.

As part of the school's STEM course, students have been working for weeks to repurpose kilo upon kilo of rescued plastics for activist art.

STEM leader and NIS science teacher, Sarah Johns, says

the project has been a great practical learning opportunity.

“Students have been looking at plastics in our oceans using art, science, engineering, maths and technology to explore our relationships with the ocean and plastic pollution.”

Sarah says, aside from the lights, all materials used for the art have been rescued and repurposed plastics.

A bale of plastic was donated from New World Nelson for the students to use.

“It was a huge amount of plastic, heavier than I could carry, it took two of us to bring it in,” says Sarah.

The artwork features a plethora

of unconventional materials from plastic water bottles cut to mimic jellyfish tentacles and old CDs used to create fish scales.

Students have been researching and working passionately on the project over the past nine weeks, encountering various construction challenges along the way.

From shaping sharp chicken wire, spray painting, hot glueing and sewing plastics together, Sarah says it’s been no easy feat for the kids learning as they go.

“There’s been a lot of learning and failing, but that cycle is a celebration for us as they work through it and work it out together.”

Future problemsolving star Erin Bradnock Nelson College student Alex Bryant had his fingers crossed for an at least above average grade in this year's Future Problem Solving International Championship.

Instead, he managed to get fourth place.

The sixteen-year-old says he was sitting in class when he heard the news from his future problemsolving mentor and Nelson College teacher, Sarah Watts.

“She burst into my English class to tell me I had come fourth. I was shocked,” says Alex.

This year’s Future Problem-Solving International Championships was held virtually and grilled students on neurotechnology.

“They’re really good at coming up with something you would never consider, and it was definitely something I hadn’t thought about. It was a bit of a panic moment at the start,” says Alex.

But he caught up quickly on the topic when he was given his problem.

Alex was given a scenario where technology was made available that would allow users to increase their IQ. In Alex’s scenario, the technology was eyed up by those who didn’t need it so Alex had to work through the intricacies and ethics of how such a technology would be administered.

“There are a lot of factors to consider, not just intellectual disabilities but socioeconomic issues. I made the

Having flown through the New Zealand national competition last year, Alex joins the ranks of many Nelson College students who have made it to FPS internationals under the mentorship of teacher Sarah Watts.

Sarah has been coaching FPS at the college and adjacent preparatory school for the past 12 years.

“In that time, we have represented New Zealand in the US 10 times and have travelled to the US in nonCovid years. We have brought back at least one trophy every trip,” says Sarah.

She says she was delighted to hear of Alex's results from the latest competition.

Alex plans to continue his problemsolving career and hopes next year he’ll get to make it to the internationals in person.

Hotel with oldworld charm and modern appeal Over the winter months, people can experience the best of N.E.L.S.O.N. (Nature – Exceptional – Local – Safe – Optimistic – Neat) at the iconic 4-star Rutherford Hotel Nelson. “Here in our region, you will find the perfect balance between nature and urban,” says manager Alexander Siebentritt. The hotel is heavily focussed on local ingredients, local talent and local nature.

“We encourage our guests to explore the region; experience the Abel Tasman, Nelson Lakes, the Maitai Valley, the Centre of New Zealand, the wine tours, the restaurants and the town.” Alexander says they don’t sell rooms; they sell the amazing “Nelson experience”, so together with local operators they have organised some fabulous accommodation packages.

The hotel itself has plenty of appeal and a degree of uniqueness.

“It is modern yet timeless with the old-world charm of a “Grand hotel” with its big lobby and staircase; it’s this combination and being here, looking after locals for almost 50 years.” In December 2022, the hotel will celebrate its 50th year of operation. “It was opened in December 1972 by the then Prime Minister, Norman Kirk, so next year marks a half century milestone.”

Located in the heart of the city, Rutherford Hotel has two fantastic dining options for visitors and locals. Atom Café is a modern café where you can enjoy freshly- baked

delicacies, smoothies, freshlysqueezed juices and great coffee.

Oceano Panorama Restaurant is also the ideal place to kickstart your day, where you can enjoy a relaxed breakfast and the lovely views of Nelson Cathedral. “Our newlydeveloped winter menu is looking pretty cool,” says Alex. “We are predominantly using local ingredients; salmon, dairy products, chocolate and more. Our extensive wine list focusses on everything that our region has to offer.” Locals can take advantage of Rutherford Hotel’s fabulous breakfast special. “We offer locals our $20 full-cooked, buffet breakfast that includes bottomless cup of coffee or tea, which is proving very popular.”

A couple of years ago, the hotel team turned Nelson into an acronym. “It encompasses everything we stand for – our nature and the environment, also highlighting our commitment to reducing our carbon footprint and wastage by introducing things like LED lighting in our public spaces, recycling batteries and plenty more.”

Rutherford Hotel provides an exceptional level of service. “We are dedicated to providing a safe environment for our visitors and our team alike. We ensure all the necessary health and safety regulations are in place, and we want everyone to feel welcome and appreciated.” At Rutherford Hotel Nelson, the team is dedicated to making sure you feel welcome, happy, well looked after, and will want to come back.

Couple’s real estate dreams come true Since before they were married, ‘Mr and Mrs Smith’ have been passionate about property, and business-wise, they had always dreamed about working together as a husband and wife team. “When we came back to New Zealand after living in Asia for 15 years, we were finally able to pursue that dream and go into real estate together,” says Lisa Smith, wife and business partner of Richard Smith. “As a couple, we have been buying and selling properties over a 20-year period in New Zealand on our own basis,” says Richard. For the past two years, Mr and Mrs Smith have been taking advantage of all the wonderful things Nelson has to offer and have just recently joined the Summit Real Estate Nelson office.

The couple can draw on the huge wealth of experience they have gained through their previous careers. Richard has accumulated 30 years of trading and broking experience working with a plethora of global clients, so he has extensive negotiation skills. A qualified lawyer, Lisa has dedicated the last 10 years to the health and wellness sector, where she ran her own companies both in Asia and New Zealand. “We have been personally involved with real estate transactions, both internationally and locally, for many years, so we have extensive experience regarding this process.” This dynamic duo’s ‘silver lining’ is their vast global network that can connect them with buyers from all over the world.

Lisa and Richard have two boys who are aged 12 and 14. “So, when it comes to real estate, we understand the pressures of family life. Having bought and sold homes as a family, we understand the emotional stresses and rollercoasters people go through when they are buying and selling, which is not always easy,” says Lisa.

With the Smiths, you get ‘two for the price of one.’ “We don’t go out and work on separate properties – you get both of us working for you.” The couple believe that selling real estate doesn’t need to be difficult or stressful, it's just about doing the little things extraordinarily well.

The Nelson couple are the 7th owners of the business which started as a family business in 1862.

“Emma and I take a lot of pride in the history of Shone and Shirley and the fact that, today, it’s still a family-owned business,” says Alastair. “Not all funeral homes are locally owned or even New Zealand owned, so it’s a real privilege owning this business.” Being locally owned, means they can support local community groups and other local businesses.

“We don’t get told from a head office where we need to get supplies from for bulk-buying power discounts.” Alastair’s mum, who used to own Woodlea Floral Studio, has been a florist for over 36 years. “She is the reason I got into the funeral industry. She’s now on our team and does the flowers for us.” Emma and Alastair are proud to provide a professional, personal, affordable service at Shone and Shirley Funeral Directors.

Marist basks in three-peat glory FROM PAGE 1 Sam weathered his storm of nerves and a rapturous crowd to nonchalantly slot the penalty and put his side ahead.

Kahurangi had one last chance to steal it at the death, but Sam produced another matchwinning play to strip possession and end coach Gavin Brigg's storied career with a hat-trick of titles.

"That's what meant the most," Sam says.

An emotional Gavin fought back tears following the final whistle and the draining 20-18 victory.

"It's a good thing I'm retired. I can't speak enough of the ticker these boys showed, I love them to bits, and it just goes to show the character this team has."

He says Kahurangi are a fabulous side, and it was a fitting final.

"They put everything into it and there were moments there where we were asking questions of ourselves, but I think what got us through was that final experience."

The win was Marist's third consecutive Tasman Trophy crown after defeating Waimea Old Boys in the 2019 and 2020 finals.

Gavin says for his son to bring it home was extra special and

Sam Briggs put over the final penalty to push Marist out in front.

Photo: Evan Barnes/Shuttersport. he never doubted that the kick would go over.

"I always knew it and it means a lot; I am quite emotional because this club means a lot to me. It's a good way to send the old boy out, they will be sick of the grumpy old prick by now."

Marist was made to come back from a 13-0 deficit after Kahurangi came out firing.

For the first time in a number of weeks, perfect conditions greeted the teams at Trafalgar Park.

Both sides showed superb ball

retention, building multiple phases and pressure.

Marist was dealt a big blow when centre Rahiri Witehira was sent to the bin for a tip tackle on Willy Havili in what would prove a costly error.

Kahurangi took immediate advantage as the first points of the final came through the boot of Havili followed by the game’s opening try when Will Schmetz just managed to stay in field to score in the corner.

Elite

The sub-union champions almost went back-to-back through Jan Lammers. Only some desperate defence managed to force his foot in touch.

Kahurangi’s scrum dominance led to a number of penalties and plenty of field position which they used to draw first blood in the second half with Havili’s second penalty.

Marist finally got themselves in the contest after Hoppo Taufa exploded onto a short ball and went in under the posts to reduce the margin to six points.

Briggs got his side back within three with a superb long range shot at goal.

With 15 minutes remaining, Marist would get in front for the first time, Caleb Havili barrelling his way over the chalk on the back of a powerful run by skipper Taina Fox-Matamua.

Kahurangi turned down a penalty right in front, opting to pack a scrum and the gamble paid off.

A strong surge by Willis Scott put his side hot on attack, the mercurial Havili finishing the

movement with a pinpoint wide pass to his winger Jan Lammers.

Kahurangi were ahead by one.

It wasn't long until Marist had the chance to claim it back after they were awarded a penalty 35 metres out.

Briggs didn't hesitate and nailed the goal for a 20-18 lead with five minutes remaining.

It was a tense final few moments, with Kahurangi awarded a scrum with 60 seconds to go but Briggs ripped the ball away on the hooter and ensured it would be three on the trot for the green machine.

Fox-Matamua says Kahurangi should be proud of their efforts.

"They came out punching in that first half, but we were lucky enough to survive the blows and then we got hungry and came out hissing."

Scorers: Marist 20 (Taufa, Havili tries, Briggs 2 cons, 2 pens) Kahurangi 18 (Schmetz, Lammers, tries, Havili, 1 con, 2 pens)

Giants crash out of contention Jonty Dine Reporter

jonty@nelsonweekly.co.nz

The Mike Pero Nelson Giants’ playoff hopes came to an end in heart-breaking fashion on Friday night.

A five-minute period at the beginning of the fourth quarter saw the Giants concede what was looking to be a comfortable victory against the Auckland Huskies.

After winning the opening three periods and at one stage leading by 17-points, the Giants crumbled to lose 10496 and end any chance of a final’s appearance.

Donte Ingram played his best match of the year, scoring 36 points and picking up ten rebounds, though that meant little to him in defeat.

"I could have scored 60, but when we lose, I don't care about that."

He says it was bitterly disappointing to let such a healthy lead, and ultimately their season, slip away.

"This side has so much upside and can hang with anyone, but we have just had a tough time putting the full 40 minutes together."

Donte Ingram scored 36 points on Friday but still the Giants went down to the Auckland Huskies at the Trafalgar Centre.

Photo: Evan Barnes/Shuttersport.

Donte admits not featuring in the post season is a tough pill to swallow.

"We have four games left and we have put ourselves in a tough position, but all we can do now is just leave it all out there.”

The home team Giants got off to a fast start with Ingram

on fire at both ends in the opening ten, scoring 14 of the Giant’s 20 points.

Fellow American Hunter Hale got in on the action in the second, helping Nelson pull out to a 15-point lead.

The Huskies were shooting well below 50 per cent in and outside of the paint

but eventually regained its rhythm to get back within ten.

Ingram took his tally past twenty and Hale’s three pointer saw Nelson bring up its half century right on half-time.

The Huskies came out hungry in the third, notching its fifty and closing the gap back to six with Tom Vodanovich stepping up for the Aucklanders.

Vodanovich hit back-to-back three-pointers to give the Huskies the lead back for the first time since the opening quarter.

It was still anyone's ball game early in the fourth, the sides all square at 79 apiece.

Out of nowhere the Giants found themselves trailing by ten, as the clock ticked under five minutes.

The healthy home crowd was offered a late glimmer of hope, Hale helping bring it back to 99-94 with sixty seconds remaining.

However, Bibbs quickly put that to bed, bringing up the century and taking his personal haul past thirty to end the Giants' championship ambitions.

Nelson's next home game is Thursday, July 8, against the Franklin Bulls.

Callan shooting for Olympic glory Jonty Dine Reporter

jonty@nelsonweekly.co.nz

Debuting for your country is a nerve-wracking experience, but if you throw the world’s biggest sporting stage into the mix then the pressure becomes extreme.

Callan Elliot is set to play his first game for the New Zealand football team at the Olympics in Tokyo later this month.

Despite the stakes, the 21-yearold defender says he is relishing the challenge.

“I feel a bit nervous playing at that level, but that’s part of it and that turns into excitement.”

He says it has been a long journey to selection.

“It’s a dream come true after a lot of hard work and sacrifices.”

Callan moved from Scotland to Richmond as a seven-year-old where he went to Waimea College before Nelson College and played his junior footy for Suburbs.

His talent was quickly recognised

as he started to work closely with Paul Ifill, eventually transferring to Rathkeale College to join his football academy.

“I don’t think I’d be here without him. He has been a massive influence on my game.”

After nine appearances for the Wellington Phoenix, Callan took his talents to Greece to join Xanthi.

“Obviously moving away from family at a young age and recently moving countries to an unknown environment has been challenging, but it has all been worth it.”

Callan is not content with just making the ‘Olywhites’ squad.

“I want to be starting and playing every game.”

The former Nelson College

star says he is not daunted by the calibre of opposition.

“We have three hard pool games, and it will be a challenge. But I think we have a good-looking squad, and we have a good chance of making it, but we will have to work hard and play together.”

The Olywhites will meet South Korea, Honduras and Romania in pool play as they look to advance to the quarterfinals.

“I would love to play any of the big teams. Spain would be a good

one. I lived with a Spanish guy in Greece, so I could rub it in his face.”

Callan says, though he had limited game time in Greece, the experience has made him a better player.

“In Europe it is just a completely different environment. Even though I didn’t play over there, training with top quality players helped me improve my game.”

Callan says his friends and family were elated to learn he would be part of the global spectacle

which fetches an audience in the billions.

“My mother was in tears when I told her.”

Callan will turn 22 today but he won’t be out partying to celebrate.

“Probably just training or playing Fifa with the boys.”

Keep busy this winter & take a night class Wipe those winter blues away and join a night class or weekend workshop to keep busy, make new friends and learn something new, in the comfort of the warm and well equipped classrooms at Waimea College.

Popular Screen Printing Tutor, Judith Ritchie is teaching two new weekend courses. Screen Printing Made Easy is a fun and fast-paced class which will suit both beginners or those with a little previous knowledge. You will be immersed in the wonderful world of screen printing on both paper and fabric surfaces. Simple stencil techniques are taught and then additional skills including wax resist and photographic screen printing. You can print onto a vast range of surfaces, from T-shirts, cushions and curtains to fine art and handmade harakeke papers, plywood and vinyl. An advanced class for those with previous screen printing experience with Judith is also available. This course is designed to offer the time and space for participants to spread out and get printing on their own projects.

The Tutor will instruct on further printing skills including registration and repeat printing as well as small business skills for anyone wishing to set up their own screen printing enterprise. You will need to bring your own screens, inks, paints etc for this course.

Returning is the Successful Gardening course with well known Tutor Bill Brett. This science based, practical course will provide you with information to improve your soil, grow your plants, minimise pest and disease, and treat successfully if necessary, (organically where appropriate). You can have fruit and vegetables all year round using the best easy to grow varieties and you will learn how to design the ornamental garden. Get proven facts (not myths) and pointers to the best value plants and products.

Please enrol on line www.waimea. school.nz/community-education/ courses/. For more information email ace@waimea.school.nz or phone Jo Johnston 544-6099 (870).

Sunshine. Exercise. Good for the environment. Fewer cars on roads. Endorphins. The benefits of owning an E-bike are endless.

Valued Team brings Wealth of Experience

Three years ago, Brendon and Rochelle Mathews first opened The Bike Station in central Nelson and today the vibrant, expanding business has fantastic stock and a passionate, experienced team.

Rochelle says contrary to what some may think, Ebikes aren’t a lazy option.

“Ours are pedal-electric, so you still have to pedal but you get assistance as

you need it, so they’re suited to anyone, including those with a medical condition.

“Using an E-bike allows me to get uphill quickly and ride for longer.

They’re great enablers. I can do a

Staff are a massive part of The Bike Station. “Without them, we wouldn’t be here today,” Rochelle says. From the outset, Brendon and Rochelle have been focussed on having high-quality staff and, because they all have significant experience with bikes, the couple have 100% faith in their ability to provide fantastic service.

Yohann, who is from the UK, says, “It’s been useful to experience how bike shops operate in other countries, including New Zealand.

I picked Nelson because of its awesome mountainbiking trails and The Bike Station had cool brands, a nice workshop and it’s a great place to work.” Meanwhile, two-time national track cycling champion and national record

holder Kaio, loves working at The Bike Station while teaching young bike enthusiasts (in schools) how to ride and it helps build up the local junior base.

Hunter, who has recently left college has been working fulltime at the store since November last year.

“I’ve done a lot of mountainbike racing, so my passion has inspired me to work here as a bike mechanic and be part of the mountainbiking community. It’s an awesome business and getting to work on bikes all day long is great.”
