Urban creep concerns raised Colin Williscroft Reporter

colin@waimeaweekly.co.nz

Productive growing land on the Waimea Plains needs to be protected at all costs, former Horticulture New Zealand president Julian Raine says. Julian, who is a director of WaiWest Horticulture, says concerns raised in the Environment Aotearoa 2019 report, recently

released by the Ministry for the Environment and Stats NZ, are relevant on the Waimea Plains. The report provides a health check on the environment and identifies nine priority issues that need to be dealt with. The third of those is the threat urban growth is having versatile productive land surrounding regional centres such as Auckland, Waikato and Canterbury. The impact of urban spread onto the Waimea Plains should also

not be forgotten, Julian says. He acknowledges that Richmond does need to grow – but where that growth is needs to be considered carefully. It should not be on flat land currently used for food production. Areas near the hills make more sense, he says, as does building up rather than out. Single people or retired couple don’t need three or four-bedroom homes, Julian says, so building two or three storey apartments may be the way to go.

About 10 years ago Julian made a submission against housing development in the Richmond area, which was unsuccessful. He hopes more productive land will not be lost. “There is concern about future spread. There’s not a lot of flat, fertile land left. I wouldn’t want to see any more of it gobbled up.” The Tasman District and Nelson city councils are currently in the process of preparing a future development strategy and have

been holding public consultation sessions. Julian says he has been frustrated by planners in the past taking a relatively short-term view of three-to-five years, rather than 50 to 100 years, and he hopes that is not the case in the latest consultation. He says the Nelson city and Richmond areas have not always been on the same page when looking

at future needs and that needed to change as it was important the two places were viewed as one. A Tasman District Council spokesman says there has been a high level of interest from Tasman residents at future development strategy public meetings held throughout the district. He says the strategy’s timeframe looks 30 years into the future, as dictated by the government’s national policy statement on urban development capacity. Urban creep into productive Tasman land has been at the centre of land use planning for some time, he says, and the Tasman Resource Management Plan has a central focus of protecting productive land. “As one of the country’s strategic horticultural areas, preventing, or

velopment opportunities?” Julian says one area that should be looked at closely for further urban development was expansion between Brightwater and Wakefield. It was of less value than other land around the Waimea in terms of food, grape or flower production, but still suitable for housing. The national report also identified lifestyle blocks as another threat to productive land. Julian says lifestyle blocks were not much of an issue for Waimea growers, as in general they are more likely to be coastal or in rolling high country. The council spokesman says Brightwater and Wakefield both have some new standard residential options in the Future Development Strategy, however they do not all score well against the assessment criteria used.

Local busker competes in ‘German Idol’ finale Matt McCrorie

Former Waimea College student Nick Ferretti takes the stage. Photo: Supplied.

Nick Ferretti, a Nelson born busker and former Waimea College student, took the global stage last weekend, when he competed in the finals of Deutschland sucht den Superstar, the German version of Idol tv show type. He competed in the final against three other contestants for a record deal and $NZ 168,500, and although he narrowly missed out on the grand prize, Nick says that the experience has honed his skills and “definitely helped my confidence in front of the camera.” Nick began his music career as a professional busker, “I have busked all around New Zealand, we did a tour in a house bus in 2015. Then on to Melbourne, England and Majorca, playing weddings, bars and

the street.” Nick and his wife moved to Europe three years ago, to give his music a chance. Nick has been busking for a living and performing. “He’s finally found the break he deserves,” says proud mum, Kerry Ferritti. In a chance encounter, he was spotted busking in the streets of Majorca by one of the judges, Dieter Bohlen. Dieter told him that, in his opinion, he had a shot of winning the show if he auditioned. Nick did just that, and months after the audition process his hard work paid off. “The process has been up to the German public, and he’s at a huge disadvantage not having the backing of his home town,” says Kerry. Part of Nick’s success is his acoustic sets. Nick performs with his guitar, just him and his voice. “I’m a little

bit different in that I have played the guitar in most of my performances!” Nick said. In comparison, a lot of the other singers use pre-recorded backing tracks. Nick writes his own songs, but despite only being able to perform covers on the show, Kerry thinks that part of his gift is his ability to put his own unique twist on songs. “He has an ability to make it his own.” “He’s gone from a thousand followers on Instagram to well over 40,000, so it’s definitely helped him gain some exposure. He’s doing what he was always meant to do, he was always meant to be on the stage.” Nick is a former Waimea College student and grew up in the area, and Kerry says that Nick always had a strong interest in music from a young age.

“He’d always loved singing and he had an amazing memory for songs. I used to have music playing in the car when he was young, and he could remember the words for any song he heard.” “His dad got him a guitar when he was 9, and by the time he was 10 he was playing Jimi Hendrix.” Nick cites some of his early musical influences as Bruce Springsteen, Paul Simon and “a lot of singer-songwriters from the seventies.” During the finale, Nick performed his own rendition of ‘Hallelujah,’ among other songs. Although Nick missed out on the victory, Kerry says that the experience has been invaluable for Nick. “For him to have come this far - he’s gained an audience, and he will go from strength to strength.”

Game bird shooters will be out in force this weekend. Photo: Fish and Game.

Positive outlook ahead of game bird season

Prospects for game bird hunters are looking pretty good in the Nelson/Marlborough region ahead of the season opening this Saturday. Fish & Game Nelson Marlborough officer Jacob Lucas says monitoring shows that bird numbers are healthy. The paradise shelduck population is up on last year, while the number of mallards seem to be better than expected. Dry conditions over spring and summer is usually bad for mallard numbers and there were concerns the population could be down on previous years, Jacob says. However, numbers seen on ponds in the area are good, although there is a concern that that could be misleading if mallard numbers on monitored ponds have been inflated because other ponds have dried up. It’s unlikely the forest fires

would have had much of an impact on bird numbers, except possibly displacing a few quail, he says. One exciting change the new season will bring is the opportunity to shoot chukar, a type of partridge that has been offlimits in the Top of the South for the past 25 years. The chukar season will only run for the month of July, and it’s only available on Molesworth Station, with a limit of two birds a day. Those interested in bagging chukar will view it as a trophy bird, Jacob says, and success will take a lot of work, so it won’t appeal to everyone. Returning for its third year is the Rabbit Island pheasant hunt, a ballot-only opportunity scheduled for Saturdays May 25, June 22 and July 20. If for some reason hunting is not possible on those Saturdays, the Sunday immediately after

is a reserve day. Jacob says credit is due to the Tasman District Council for allowing the pheasant hunts, which will be held at the eastern end of the island. Especially popular among those new to targeting pheasants, the hunts are always oversubscribed, Jacob says, so anyone interested should register with Fish & Game as soon as possible. On August 4 is an event Jacob says was his highlight of last year’s game bird season - an opportunity to see and taste a variety of ways to cook birds that’s outside traditional methods and recipes. Chef Phil Hazeldine will showcase creative ways to cook game birds over 12 courses at Club Waimea, with numbers restricted to 80 people. “It really opened everyone’s eyes last year,” Jacob says. “It’s a great way to finish the season.”

College to benefit from $4.4 million upgrade Matt McCrorie Reporter

matt@waimeaweekly.co.nz

Waimea College is set to benefit from a new, state-of-theart teaching block. The school, which is the largest in the region, has been steadily growing its roll over the last few years, increasing from 1614 in 2018, to a roll of 1658 in 2019. The Ministry of Education announced $4.4 million for the project in 2017, with the classrooms being expected in 2018. However, several delays in the project have meant that the completion date was pushed to 2019, and then again to 2020. Principal Scott Haines says that “in 2017 we were 12 teaching spaces short. This new teaching block addresses 9 of those, and we’ve built one specialised classroom on our own.” Six temporary classrooms were added in November 2018 to accommodate for the dire need for teaching spaces until the new project was completed. While the temporary rooms help relieve pressure, Scott says that having classrooms on a sports field is “not really ideal.” The new building will be a twostory block, which will consist of nine new classrooms including a

The thought was, let’s reposition the gardens from the front of the school to the new block, and put a dedicated horticulture teaching space next to it. We need to be engaging with our primary industries, and how do we develop students with the skills that those industries need, so this is part of that.”

Scott says that “The other new classrooms will be largely mathematics-based. Ideally, we want different parts of the school to be consolidated, so that maths will be together in one block, social sciences in another, English in one building, whatever, so we have a consistent physical location for our departments so things are easier and more coherent for our students.” Kim Shannon, head of Education Infrastructure Service, says that “The building has been designed

RemarkaBULL

Site excavation begins this week, and the construction begins on Tuesday May 7. The contract is for a 52 week build time, “so we’re hoping to have the building open for term two, 2020.” Waimea College completed its own $950,000 project, with a new performing arts suite towards the end of last year. The plan for the performing arts suite was announced at the same time as the new teaching block in 2017, but was completed earlier than the ministry-funded project.

though a joint venture between Arthouse Architects and Sheppard and Rout Architecture, and the contractor appointed to complete the works is Fitzgerald Construction. It is estimated the $4.5 million project will be completed in mid-2020.” The new block is part of a twostage plan to add more blocks, which would likely be a 10-classroom block. “Currently we have funding to plan the second block, but we don’t have funding to build it yet,” Scott says.

Whenua Iti takes on Hillary Award role Matt McCrorie Reporter

matt@waimeaweekly.co.nz

Whenua Iti are now the hub leaders for the top half of the South Island for the Duke of Edinburgh’s Hillary Award. The award is a non-competitive programme of practical, cultural, and adventurous activities, designed to support the personal and social development of young people. It offers an individual challenge and encourages young people to undertake constructive activities in their free time. A hub leader encourages young people to learn about and have a go at the award and helps support groups that are wanting to

undertake the award, such as scout groups or schools, and provides opportunities for networking. Communications manager Nettie Stow says, “it’s a way to encourage people in the community to get out there and get connected and active.” Over the last few months, Whenua Iti Outdoors has been working with the Duke of Edinburgh Hillary Award to see how they can better support the award in the area. The award gives recognition to young people for the things they are already do in the community, and encourages them to try new things as well. Whenua Iti is having its first meeting and information evening for those interested in the

award on May 15, 4.30pm at Whenua Iti Outdoors, Lower Moutere. The meeting is suitable for; anyone who is interested in learning more about the award and how to participate, current group leaders, and those who want to help support the initiative. There will be a discussion of what the Duke of Edinburgh award is, and how you can run it at your school or organisation; a launch of the vocational skills unit standards at bronze, silver and gold levels; support available to organisations to run the award, including website resources and new information; school resources and any other discussions and questions that people may have.

Every year Network Tasman reviews its Asset Management Plan. The plan helps us identify and anticipate key trends in electricity usage on our consumer-owned network and use the necessary planning required to keep it safe, reliable and fit for purpose. As part of the annual review, we consider recent network performance (safety and reliability), an updated demand forecast, and the current status of capital and network renewal projects. In our 2019 Asset Management Plan, available now on our website at www.networktasman.co.nz/asset-managementplan, we outline how Network Tasman plans to invest $120 million in our network during the next 10 years. Planned network investment for 2019/20 Network Tasman’s Network Manager, Murray Hendrikson, says next year’s investment focuses on supporting regional growth with four significant projects planned: z

Installing an alternative 33kV supply for our Mapua Substation in the form of a new underground cable from Waimea West to Ridgeview Road/Appleby Highway, which will significantly reduce the incidence of power interruptions in the area.

Installing a new 11kV feeder in Annesbrook to allow for new business connections, expansion of existing businesses and increased security of supply.

“We have identified a significant increase in demand in the industrial sector driven by cold storage, shellfish processing/ extraction, rest homes, hop processing and dairy irrigation,” says Murray Hendrickson. “Land subdivision for residential growth will also be strong and in the later part of our ten-year planning period, electric vehicle charging is expected to have an impact.”

Students get ready to rock The Smokefree Rockquest regional heats come to Nelson this Saturday. Now in its 31st year, the nationwide high school music event is expecting record entries, with events held in 21 regions around the country, from Whangarei to Invercargill. Smokefree rockquest is run simultaneously with Smokefree Tangata Beats which aims to nurture Pasifika and Māori culture in a contemporary music setting.

Participants, all enrolled in schools around the region, will perform on a professional stage. They will experience a full set up with stage lighting, sound, a projected backdrop, and technical support in a show that includes a professional guest band and MC. Founder and director Glenn Common says that the benefit for entrants goes beyond the rush of performing on the day: “The creativity, thought and work that goes into preparing

a song to present on the day is huge, and goes beyond just musical skill. There is a great sense of pride and achievement to be gained for all the students involved.” The regional heat will be held at Annesbrook Church at 2.30pm this coming Saturday, with tickets $10 at the door. Several bands from across the region, including Waimea College, Waimea Intermediate, and Garin College, will take the stage and showcase their

Festival showcases cycling films The Big Bike Film Night returns for 2019, and is riding into Richmond on Thursday, May 9. Described as a feast of short films devoted to the bicycle and all who ride it, the Big Bike Film Night is a collection of international and New Zealand films specifically selected by curator Brett Cotter. “Not many people would be proud to have their event described as weird, wacky and wonderful, however that is probably one of the best ways of describing this celebration of the humble bicycle,” says Brett. The dynamic film concept showcases a range of short cycling films from New Zealand and around the world; from the Alaskan glaciers to the urban neighbourhoods of Auckland, to the boundless landscape of Australia, with a selection offering plenty of appeal and thrills for pedal patrons and movie goers. “It’s incredible to think this is our fifth collection, our fifth vintage so to speak, and it features the full array of cycling genres and will spur you to get out and explore no mat-

ter your ability, your age, or what you ride. Expect action, drama, humour and plenty of inspiration in the 2019 mix,” he says. “There are 11 short films being presented, ranging from 2 to 27 minutes in length, including a number of New Zealand premieres and International award winners.” Brett says he is full of admiration for all the films, but one stands out in particular.

Mayor prepares for a dunking Consent processing monitored A resource consent is granted in the Tasman district every 13 minutes, according to the Ministry for the Environment’s Resource Management Act national monitoring report for 201718. Tasman accounted for 2 per cent of consent processing nationally, but only makes up 1 per cent of the population. According to the report, Tasman was the eighth busiest in terms of plan changes and seventh busiest in terms of consent processing workload, after Auckland, Christchurch, Marlborough, Environment Canterbury, Queenstown Lakes District Council and Environment Bay of Plenty. Tasman had the fourth highest number of notified applications (after Marlborough, Auckland, Env BoP), while 89 per cent of Tasman’s applications were processed on time – the national average was 86 per cent. The average consent processing charge in Tasman was $1575.74, compared to a national average of $3,389.39. The TDC was the 13th busiest in terms of enforcement action taken.

The winner of Tasman District Council’s Beat the Mayor competition will get the chance to dunk Mayor Richard Kempthorne today, Wednesday, as reward for topping his water conservation efforts during the summer drought. The three competition winners have been invited to take part in the dunking at 9.30 am on Wednesday at the Richmond Aquatic Cen-

tre, along with students from schools that participated in the council’s schools water saving competition over summer. The Kempthorne’s reduced their household water consumption down to 97 litres a day during the drought. Richard says: “I’m actually thrilled that people took up the challenge and several were able to beat our water saving. The efforts of every-

one who reduced their water use at home, at work and at school were crucial to seeing us through the drought this summer. I’m preparing myself for a dunking – it’s well worth it for any motivation it may have given people to conserve water when we needed it most.” Pumps & Filters, Nelmac and the Richmond Aquatic Centre have sponsored the dunking apparatus for the event.

Two greaT businesses

Band management produc tion management event & tour management 027 487 5418 • ben@thrive.co.nz

In December last year, two Nelson businesses joined forces and opened up shop under one roof on Tahunanui Drive. Mark Patterson, owner of Lifestyle Audio Visual (R) and Andrew (Smiley) Shellock (L), owner of Event Audio have created a unique space where people can come in and experience high quality, high-tech audio-visual gear before they invest in new equipment.

Make your event extraordinarily special Andrew Shellock, commonly known as ‘Smiley,’ has been operating Event Audio in Nelson for the past 10 years. Smiley had been playing in bands for years when, in the mid 2000’s, he decided to upgrade and buy new speakers. “I thought they sounded great and I realised there was an opportunity to hire these out and make a return; so that’s really what got me started. From that point I saw the potential to grow the business based on the quality and accessibility of the gear I was starting to stock.” “In this business, technology is constantly being upgraded and gear can get outdated very quickly, so we made an effort to stock reliable industry standard gear” says Smiley. “So that was the plan and it’s taken a long time to get to where

we are now with enough hire stock for multiple jobs.” While it’s been bit of a rollercoaster for the business, Smiley says some good opportunities have come along. “In 2011, the year of World Cup, there was a lot of work on in the periphery of the event in Nelson and Blenheim, so we capitalised on this and signed up to what is now the Tasman Mako as a sponsor and have been with them for 9 years. This led to the opportunity last year to supply audio for the All Blacks vs Argentina match at Trafalgar Park which really has been a highlight in our career. We also started sponsoring the Nelson Jazz Festival, Nelson Santa Parade and various community fund-raisers for Hospice and similar, as these events can’t function without local business support. We have worked with prominent

local events such as Marchfest, Brightwater Wine and Food and the Cider Festival for many years. Last year saw new events added to our roster including the new Lift-Off Festival in Motueka and Nelson Arts Festival Mainstage, which was possible because of our ongoing investment in professional equipment. Event Audio’s broad spectrum of work includes AV and technical solutions for weddings and private functions through to large corporate events. “We have geared the business to be able to cater for large events at the Trafalgar Centre. This includes supply of line array audio systems, large projection setups, TV’s, LED lighting fixtures and technical support. And we have many options for smaller events including battery-powered and wireless systems”.

in one great spot! Whenever I need particular gear, Mark at Lifestyle AV is an excellent technical solution and I help him out with installations when he is busy.”

Experience high tech audio-visual gear in Tahunanui “Whether you are an electrician who needs a pair of speakers, a homeowner who wants a sound bar in front of your tv or maybe a publican who wants a big rock’n’roll PA system of your live band, you can come in and see us for high quality equipment.” Audio-visual expert, audio engineer, and clasically-trained musician, Mark Patterson has over 20 years’ experience in his chosen field, specialising in design and installation solutions for homes, commercial projects, and one-off events. “Essentially, my business ‘Lifestyle Audio Visual’ is a solutions provider, and my decision to set up a physical store on Tahunanui Drive

in December last year was to give people examples of what’s possible – allow them to experience high-quality audiovisual gear before they buy it,” says Mark. “I am not a bulk retailer – I don’t have masses of stock, and I am not beholden to brands; but I have gear that is really proven to be excellent from real life industry experience, and trial and error over a period of time.” A couple of decades ago, Mark was doing sound for a high school musical in Christchurch when he was offered a job by one of the big audio companies. “So instead of going to university, I did a lot of the ‘big stuff ’ like Sparks concerts, and subsequently I got an addiction for buying gear which lead to a massive company in Christchurch city. But after the earthquakes, I had a change of pace and moved up here. This is my 21st year doing this for a living, and for many years I’ve looked after most of the Lonestar chains throughout New Zealand, and will soon be do-

ing the new one in Auckland. Since opening my shop last year, I’ve been flat out with installations. “I’ve found that people in New Zealand have a very narrow range of what’s been marketed to them, but that doesn’t necessarily equate to good products; nothing here is ‘cheap crap’; our brands are well-known such as Bosch, etc.” Lifestyle Audio Visual has everything available, from speakers and recording equipment to live sound systems and hearing aid loops, and on the visual side, Mark is currently in the process of setting up a full home movie theatre, complete with high end laser video projectors and a range of Dolby Atmos for people to come and experience. “This shop is very ‘me’ – I enjoy helping people who come in to find the right product and making a match. The backbone of my business is installation, and providing audio-visual solutions. If you are a musician and you want

to play a guitar – you can’t trial that on the web; we are all about giving people the opportunity to experience gear in reality.” Mark Patterson describes his partnership with Event Audio as a ‘symbiotic relationship’, and he says that sharing the premises has been an excellent decision. Mark says their premises isn’t just two companies side by side – it’s a one stop shop which is partly why they moved there, “because people who come to hire equipment may

also want to buy gear and vice-versa. We try to stock a lot of gear because we sometimes have three different sized jobs happening simultaneously. Because Smiley’s gear is considered industry standard – it can go nationwide on the big tours with another company.” Be sure to check out Lifestyle Audio Visual and Event Audio at 1/124 Tahunanui Drive to experience what’s possible in the realms of new technology.

No plans for Charges under review pensioner rent increase Matt McCrorie

Matt McCrorie Tasman District Council-owned pension flats will not be facing a dramatic rise in rent, as seen in the Waikato this week. Occupants of council-owned pensioner flats in the Waikato received a letter that told them their rent would be rising by a sharp $26 a week, an increase of 16 per cent. The reason for the increase was cited as maintenance, as that the Waikato District Council does not make a profit off these properties. The Tasman District Council owns 101 pensioner flats, with 34 in Richmond, 45 in Motueka, and a small number in Wakefield, Mur-

chison, Brightwater and Golden Bay. This housing is for residents over the age of 65 who receive National Superannuation, with total assets that do not exceed $50,000. Community relations manager Chris Choat says there is a system in place to avoid dramatic rent increases. “We review the rentals every three years, and if there is an increase or decrease, we work with the tenant to phase this in over time. The idea is to keep these units self-sustaining, so that no ratepayer money is going in. The council keeps a close relationship with the residents of its pensioner flats, and the rent for these flats are set at 80 per cent of market value.”

The Tasman District Council is reviewing its fees and charges, and is now seeking consultation and public feedback, until this Friday, May 3 at 5pm. The council sets charges to recover some costs associated with council services. A draft schedule of charges was approved in March and covers the year from 1 July 2019 to 30 June 2020. Some charges have been increased to reflect increased costs. Some of the fee increases include cemetery fees, which have been brought in line with Nelson City Council charges. The majority of engineering fees and charges have been increased, and an increase in landfill charges has been proposed from $141 to $163 a tonne due to increased operational costs.

Nelson Matters The official opening of the Nelson Tasman Hospice in Suffolk Road in Stoke this Thursday is a tremendous achievement for the region. We owe huge thanks to the thousands of volunteers, health professionals and supporters that have enabled us to complete this stunning new facility. Nelson has been at the forefront of the New Zealand Hospice movement since it began. The philosophy is to focus on the quality of life for people in the last months, weeks or days of life. It is a better model of care than hospitals and invasive procedures. It provides people with special palliative and wrap around services to ensure the last stage of

life is as comfortable and fulfilling as possible. It has been an amazing journey working alongside Hospice over the last 30 years seeing these services grow. Sally McCormack House used to support 30 families a year but the numbers now top 400 per year. We achieved a major breakthrough in 1998 in getting Government through the District Health Board to contract Nelson Hospice for integrated home and in-patient services. This enabled the Manuka St Hospital shared facility with Hospice that opened in 1999. The growth in demand for surgery and for Hospice since has seen the site

It takes a special kind of person to work with the dying but Nelson has them in bulk. It is said that a community should be judged not by how its most affluent live, but by how it cares for its most vulnerable. Our new Hospice reinforces just how caring a place Nelson is. Advt.

Nelson Tasman Hospice

Locally Owned and Operated

From humble beginnings, huge things have come Hospice in our region started out as a desk in one room of an old house on Waimea Road and has grown - over the 30 years of its existence - into a state-of-the-art 2300sq m facility that provides top level care to people in the last months, weeks and days of their lives. At any one time, Nelson Tasman Hospice has between 160 and 180 patients “on the books”. Of

course, nearly all of those are cared for in the community - in their own homes or in aged care facilities. The new hospice has only 10 beds - as did the old hospice. So why the need for a move to a new $11.5 million building? Even though it’s wonderful for inpatients to be able to have luxurious surroundings - each

room is large with great natural light, and its own private deck that the bed can be wheeled onto to allow the patient to enjoy their own garden area - but the move was actually necessitated by pragmatic considerations. Its former site on Manuka Street was leased from Manuka Street Hospital - and they needed the room to expand. Hospice had some funds in

reserve which were generously topped up by a bequest from the estate of Daniel O’Brien. A fundraising campaign launched in 2017 raised the remaining $4 million. Chief executive Frans Dellebeke said the community was “exceedingly generous”. Donations poured in from all sectors. Local businesses supported the build,

grants bodies were generous (giving about $1.4 million in total), contractors cut their costs, the Nelson City Council gave $150,000 and the general public put in about $1.95 million. The new building accepted its first patients on April 11. In the new facility, staff and volunteers will continue to apply the hospice motto “to care always”.

Where did the money come from? The new hospice is 100 percent funded by the Nelson Tasman community. Central government and district health boards don’t provide capital funding for hospices. So to fund the move, we had to find nearly $14 million ($11.5 million for the building and fit-out, and $2.1 million for the land). Hospice had reserves of $7.5 million, which were greatly boosted by a bequest from the estate of Daniel O’Brien. The inpatient unit has been named the Daniel O’Brien wing to recognise this

substantial gift. Grants from Rata, Lion Foundation, Pub Charities, NZ Community Trust and other bodies came to about $1.4 million. The Nelson City Council gave a grant of $150,000. Contractors cut their costs by half a million dollars, and the public made up the rest of the $2 million through donations, bequests and supporting events. From regular car shows, a spring fashion show, Dancing For A Cause and other compelling events such as Steampunk nights - the public got behind

the fundraising effort in a huge way. What about ongoing costs? • The hospice’s running costs are part-funded by the Nelson Marlborough District Health Board, but with an operational deficit of more than $1.2 million a year. • The four hospice op shops (Richmond, Nelson, Motueka and Takaka) give their profits to the Hospice Trust - earning as much as $500,000 a year. • Bequests and donations from the public make up the shortfall.

It takes a lot of dedicated people to run a hospice - and by far the majority of them are volunteers. While Nelson Tasman Hospice has about 90 paid staff (nearly all part-timers), its volunteers number closer to 500. They do all sorts of jobs from gardening to massage, from retail in second-hand shops to patient support, from life story writing to writing letters to bereaved families, from delivering equipment to patients at their homes to helping with photocopying in the office. Other volunteers bake for the inpatient unit, provide flower arrangements and help with fundraising. Volunteer services manager Rebecca Colley says hospice volunteers provide all the extras that the trust’s operational funding can’t stretch to, and that those services are the ones

that mean the service “goes the extra mile”. Edith Alvey has been volunteering for 31 years, initially visiting patients in their own homes and more recently helping in the garden. Edith, 87, says she was “born to help others”. “If you can’t help somebody, it’s a bad old world.” At the other end of the age spectrum, 13-year-old Astrid Sayer has been helping out in the Nelson second hand shop for nearly a year. An op shopper herself, Astrid says she feels a sense of community when she volunteers. “I feel like I’ve done something with my day. It’s always a nice feeling coming out of there.” Want-to-be volunteers can contact Rebecca on (03) 546 3912 or email rebecca.colley@nelsonhospice.org. nz.

1. In 2016 we were advised that Manuka Street Hospital wanted to expand its facility and would need to use the land Nelson Tasman Hospice had been leasing on Manuka St since 1999. Our search for a new piece of land ended in August 2017 with the purchase of 331 Suffolk Road, Stoke. 2. The new 1.4 hectare site was blessed at a dawn ceremony in September 2017.

3 3. By January 2018 all resource and building consents had been issued. Gibbons was chosen as the lead contractor. The foundations for a 2388 sqm building could be poured. The new inpatient unit was to have 10 rooms, but the site has more space to build on in future should need demand. A fourbedroom house - for families staying from out-of-town - was to be added at the rear of the site. 4. By May 2018, most of the framing was up, aided by generous in kind donations from local suppliers. The fundraising campaign to support the new build was well underway, with the public asked to fund the remaining $4 million needed for the $11.5 million project. 5. By August 2018, the builders were able to have their roof shout. More than 60 solar panels have been installed to make use of the regionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s extended sunshine hours. Chargers for electric vehicles were also on the plans to maximise sustainability. 6. By February 2019, the building was nearing its final stages. Inside, subcontractors were working long hours to gib-stop, install the fittings, paint and generally finish the building in time for the keys to be handed over on the planned date of March 29. Landscaping work, especially the planting, has been delayed due to water restrictions over a long dry summer.

Nelson Tasman Hospice

Hospice ‘very supportive’ when you need it most It’s been nearly six years since Kylie Davies was first involved with Nelson Tasman Hospice, when her much loved Mum, Alisha Staveley, was coming to the end of her life. “Since that time I’ve thrown myself into anything I can support them with,” says Kylie. “A while ago, a friend and I did a charity fundraiser night with Guy Williams and raised four to five thousand dollars. Throughout the journey with my Mum, without the hospice I don’t think I could have got through it. When you are thrown into a situation where you are told a loved one only has a short amount of time to live, the support they give is just incredible, right from the moment you go in – there’s a bed offered to you if you want to stay.” Kylie says when her Mum was diagnosed with uterine and ovarian cancer, she was told she only had two to three weeks to live. “So our lives were thrown into turmoil. My husband and I were living in Wellington and my Mum was down here, so I gave up my job to be with her. Time went by and 15 months later I was still in Motueka and my husband was flying down every weekend to see us; it was such a big journey but the whole time we had the hospice support behind us, offering us time to go out and get groceries, little things like that made a huge difference.”

Kylie says she and her Mum were very close and that she was really supportive of her music. “I was a singer growing up and she travelled around the country music awards with me. My Dad passed away when I was 20 years old so it brought us closer together as a family. Hospice was a like a second home and there is a really personal approach where everybody remembers your name. “They would always go out of their way to do things – Mum loved going for walks and even up until the day before she died, we took her out in her wheelchair. They do all those little things that mean so much to a family and patient.” Kylie describes her Mum has having been ‘incredibly special.’ In her role as a Barnados caregiver she ‘raised half of Motueka’ and was fondly known by parents as ‘Nana Lish.’ “She would go out her way to help anybody – even from her hospice bed she would say to visitors, ‘can I get you a cup of tea?’ In my speech at her funeral I said if I got the smallest part of her in me, I would be the most blessed person in the world.” The following words are gleaned from a Facebook post Kylie wrote about her Mum and the old hospice. “Tonight after work I rushed down to catch the end of the ‘farewell to the old hospice’ day. I’ve walked in those doors and down that corridor so many times

before, and been greeted by incredibly friendly faces, and today it was no different, although today, there was more of an emotional presence. This was the place I shared, and created some of the most amazing and most precious memories of my lifetime, the place I laughed until I cried, and the place I’ve sobbed uncontrollably, I’ve sung, I’ve showered, I’ve slept, I’ve washed clothes in sinks, I’ve drunk wine with friends, I’ve held hands and hugged strangers, I feel like I’ve lived a part of my life here. This place was the place I got to share final precious moments with my beautiful mum and father in law. This building was a part of my life for close to six years and it’s one of those places that’s just remained so closely in my heart. I know it’s said that it’s the people that make a place what it is, but a place also holds memories created in its presence and that’s special too. This time two years ago I was sleeping night after night holding my mumma while she did all that she needed to do in her life before she chose to let go of this world after weeks and weeks fighting on the 12th of May. If those walls could only talk they could surely tell some stories. I am so proud the hospice has a new home but I’m sad to say goodbye to the place where I last said goodbye to one of my most treasured people.”

Conditions were good for those who took part in the annual Spooners Tunnel fun run on Anzac Day. Photo: Supplied. Young guns Angus Wemyss and Matthew Bowen dominated the third annual Spooners Tunnel race on Anzac Day. Angus and Matthew ran most of the 15km race together, with Angus edging clear towards the end to win by nine seconds in 55mins 44secs, slicing nearly two minutes off the race record. The race started and finished at Belgrove and heads out and back along the Great Taste Trail to the turnaround at the end of the 1352-metre Spooners Tunnel.

Klaartje van Schie used her off-road experience to take out the women’s section in 1h 5mins 44secs, finishing ninth overall. Bill Revell and Carys Coleman were first home in the two-person relay section, finishing in 1hr 10m 37s, followed closely by Hayden Squance and Odette Llewellin. Steve Pauling was the first walker in 1hr 48m 52s followed by Gillian MacDougall in 1hr 55m 8s. The race, which attracted 160 entrants, has proved a popular annual event.

Wet or green wood makes more smoke and less heat, so if we burn dry wood from a GOOD WOOD supplier our homes will be warmer, the fire will be cheaper to run and the air quality will be healthier for everyone. Council approved GOOD WOOD suppliers will ensure you get dry wood and can give you good advice on storing wood for the following winter.

Now is the perfect time to buy your winter firewood from Richmond Wood and Coal – the region’s No. 1 wood supplier of seasoned firewood, kindling and coal. Local authorities recommend you buy your firewood from a “Good Wood” supplier, such as Richmond Wood and Coal, to get maximum performance from your log burner or open fire this winter. “Customers are welcome to pop into our yard and our friendly, knowledgeable staff will happily recommend what type of wood best suits your needs,” says owner Duane Whiting. “Or you can view photos of our great range of wood on our website. Douglas Fir has been popular this year but we still have a small amount available, and plenty of beech and gum. We are happy to deliver to your door, or you can pick up a trailer load.” After many years of dedication to the business, James Dean has now handed over the ownership of Deans Nursery to his son Ollie, but still works there part-time.

Race team surpasses expectations The Richmond-based Fisher Racing team was one of the standout performers at the opening round of the 2019 New Zealand OffRoad Racing Championship. Driver Dan Fisher and navigator David Pinkerton made the long trip north to compete at the event at Makarau, north-west of Auckland, over Easter weekend. The duo, who race a V8-powered race car in the unlimited class, finished the event in second place behind well-performed Aucklander Tony McCall. Fisher Racing also took out the best-presented car and team award for the event. Dan says, being relatively new to off-road racing he did not expect a place on the podium. He was aiming for a top-five place, so to finish where he did was very satisfying. It was only the fourth meeting the team has competed at, with Dan buying the car in October last year. He has a motorcross and speedway background and still has the desire to compete in motorsport, so decided to take up off-road

Dan Fisher (inset) and David Pinkerton finished second at the first round of the 2019 New Zealand Off-Road Racing Championship, held near Auckland recently. Photo: SG Photography. racing. “As they say, with age comes a cage,”” he says. David is also new to off-roading but has a lot of carting experience. The Makarau round of the cham-

pionship was made up of shortcourse races on a purpose-built race track. However, upcoming rounds will feature short races on the first day of events, followed by an enduro race the following day.

While short-course races are on motorcross-style tracks, enduro races are raced over 250km around farmland and forestry. Cars in the unlimited class, like Dan and David’s, will reach speeds of 200km/h, so it’s not for

the faint-hearted. The longer events also required more planning and strategy, Dan says. “You need a proper plan, so you’ve got to think ahead,” he says. There’s fuel stops to consider, and the races often have a high attrition rate, with breakages and flat tyres taking their toll. Keeping cars well-maintained is key to doing well in enduro races, Dan says. The next round of the national championship is also up in the Auckland area, at Woodhill Forest on June 1 and 2. To save on transport costs, Dan has stored the car at a friend’s place just south of Auckland. After Woodhill, Christchurch will host a round over the weekend of June 15 and 16, before it’s Nelson’s turn on July 13. More details about the Nelson leg will be available closer to the time. Dan and David will be joined at the South Island events by fellow Nelson competitors Gregg Winn, Cam Stratford and new driver Alex Bright.

The Taylors Wanderers Rugby Club returned to Centennial Park, Brightwater, on Saturday and recorded two solid victories in Tasman Rugby Union competitions. It was a very good week for the club as Taylors Contracting Company renewed its sponsorship for a further three years, enabling the club to plan for improved community engagement across all codes at the club. In the early Division 2 game, Wanderers hosted Stoke in perfect autumnal weather. The local team relished the opportunity to be at home, racing out to a 24-0 lead on the back of a dominant forward pack, complemented by a hardrunning backline. The concerted team play resulted in Wanderers controlling the ball and creating pressure on the Stoke goal line, with four tries scored from close range, two to lock Theo Moore and one each to brothers Sean and Cameron King. After 30 minutes

Stoke scored a fine team try after a period of sustained pressure in the Wanderers 22. The conversion meant it was 24-7 at halftime. The weather deteriorated in the second half and Stoke raised their level, gaining the ball back from their own kick off and working into threatening positions on many occasions. However, a combination of small errors and a determined Wanderers defence, especially from Gianni Bertacco who was tenacious all day, prevented any additional scoring. During this period, on the back of a dominant scrum, Sean King carried the ball well and Wanderers finally entered Stoke territory, however the referee decided to call both captains out for a small discussion, and while his message was being relayed to Wanderers he signalled play on, much to the chagrin of the host team and their supporters. Despite an extremely competitive

Racing was close at last year’s Ray Anderson Memorial Motorcross. Photo: Janine Pope.

Event honours club stalwart Cooler waters Club member Fritz with a nice snapper.

The Top of the South Vintage Motocross Club are holding their annual Morley Motorcycle and Marine Ray Anderson Memorial Trophy Motocross event on Sunday, May 5 at the Anglesey farm at Tadmor, sign-posted from Tapawera. Ray Anderson was a life mem-

ber of the Nelson Motorcycle Club, he was the treasurer and secretary of the club for many years and an active member for most of his life. The Ray Anderson Memorial Trophy is awarded to the winner of one of the classes on the day (to be drawn on the day).

Classes are pre-1975, pre-1978, pre-1990 and veteran riders (over 50 years). The winner of last year’s Ray Anderson Trophy was Steve Lange. The Anglesey property provides good viewing points over undulating terrain for spectators. Racing starts from 10am.

Winter dressage series under way The first of the four Pitt and Moore-sponsored Winter Dressage Series events was held last Sunday at Rough Island Equestrian Park, with record entries and a warm sunny day that didn’t feel at all like winter. There was a fantastic turn out from both registered and unregistered riders and organisers said it was great to see

many new faces. The winter series is a good opportunity to give dressage a go in a relaxed, friendly atmosphere. All levels are catered for, starting with lead rein tests, which are a good work out for the person on the end of the lead rope, too. One of Sunday’s highlights was local rider Anna Terrell and her horse Caithness Masquer-

ade, competing in their first Grand Prix test, which is an Olympic level test. They scored a very impressive 62 per cent and it is a real bonus that such a high level of dressage can be watched locally, organisers say. The second Pitt and Moore Winter Series event is on Sunday, May 26, and entries can be made online through equestrian entries.

The water in the bay is slowly getting cooler, and while there are still quite a few fish around the snapper fishing has become patchy over the last weeks. Obviously, they are moving back towards their winter quarters in the deeper waters around d’Urville Island. The weather on ANZAC day was perfect and dozens of boats were hanging around the rugged shoreline of this fisherman’s paradise at our doorsteps. Most of them came home with very full bins. If you want to fish there make sure you get the basics right, check the weather forecast, take a big enough boat and have someone aboard who knows his or her way around the area, the waters are treacherous with massive currents and lots of submerged rocks. The same currents attract millions of fish, offering some of the best angling New Zealand has to offer.

To catch snapper try to find fish congregations on your sounder, usually in areas between 60-80m with some current and a bit of structure. Get your drift right and drop your heavy (130g and upwards) slow jigs or flasher rigs on heavy sinkers. Keep in mind that the daily bag limit on the eastern side of the island is only 3 snapper per person. For the kingies, look for areas with massive currents, ideally where they push against a drop off. Mechanical jigging works well, if they are not in the mood try to send down a livie. Strong, high quality gear is essential, a hooked fish will head straight for the reef and bust you off in seconds if you can’t hold it out of the danger zone. The Dawnbreakers Fishing Club is looking forwards to its d’Urville weekend at the Wilderness Resort in early May, if the weather plays along a lot of fun and great fishing are pretty much guaranteed!
