Queen St ready to go

First strike off

Nelson Marlborough Health (NMH) surgical and outpatient services will continue as planned this week after the strike planned for Thursday 5 July, by nurses, midwives and healthcare assistants who are covered by the New Zealand Nurses Organisation (NZNO) collective employment agreement, was called off.

The New Zealand Nurses Organisation and the country’s District Health Boards last week agreed to a revised offer that will be taken to NZNO nurses, midwives and healthcare assistants this week.

Although preparation to close most hospital elective services on 5 and 12 July due to the nationwide strike were well underway, Pamela Kiesanowski, Director of Nursing and Midwifery, says it will be business as usual for patients and staff this week.

“Although we had contacted some patients to advise them their non-urgent elective surgeries and outpatient appointments may be affected this week, we are in the process of reinstating these where possible,” she says.

Mrs Kiesanowski says, as the results of the NZNO ballot will not be known until 10 July, contingency planning will continue for potential strike action on

With help from a loan through Nelson Angel Women’s Loan Fund, Karen has been able to train alongside her work at The Nelson ARK, in equine-led growth and healing. The training involves a one year exploration of the potential of the horse-human partnership for growth and healing. She believes equine-led coaching and learning can support a wide range of growth and healing processes either on its own, or alongside, other forms of therapy.

Coupled with her responsibilities at The Nelson ARK (which, at its heart, is an animal rescue shelter), Karen also coordinates counselling and outdoor initiatives at the centre, her current training and her background will make the perfect marriage in helping people ‘transform their lives’.

NEW RANGE IN STOCK

Bays Boating scoops the award second year running Motueka’s Bays Boating has been awarded the title of Mclay Boats dealer of the year for the second year in a row at the Hutchwilco New Zealand, Auckland Boat Show. The Milton-based boat builder has 10 dealers across NZ, and also exports to Australia and Sweden.

Bays Boating had to compete with dealers in our main cities

and proved themselves again to be the best for sales and customer service for McLays.

“We believe in McLay Boats as a product. They are an excellent example of a quality kiwi product that has developed a reputable brand over their 31 years of building. We sold the most boats within the Mclay dealer network, more than any

other dealer in New Zealand,” said Vic Taylor, sales manager.

Vic is proud of their customer approach and the after-sales service they offer.

“The whole team worked towards this award and we are all thrilled.” McLay has also recently been given their own commendations when they won two awards at the show.

Foreigner killed on side-byside in Wakefield

A woman is dead after the side-by-side UTV she was a passenger in was involved in an accident on a farm south of Wakefield on Thursday, June 28.

The driver, a 22-year woman, was flown by the Nelson Marlborough Rescue Helicopter to Nelson Hospital where she was treated for minor injuries and discharged.

Emergency services were first notified just after 1pm of the accident on an EightyEight Valley Rd farm.

A police spokeswoman says it took police about 40 minutes to reach the scene due to its remote location.

The Serious Crash Unit and WorkSafe attended the scene and WorkSafe is conducting on-going investigations.

Initial reports said the women were travelling on a quad bike.

It’s understood the dead woman is a foreign national.

Regional confidence rebounds strongly

A net 47% of households in Nelson, Marlborough and the West Coast are optimistic about the economic outlook for their region over the coming year, according to

WEDNESDAY 4 July 2018

the Westpac-McDermott Miller Regional Economic Confidence survey for the June 2018 quarter.

This is a massive increase from the 13% recorded in the March 2018 quarter, and makes the region the second most optimistic in the country.

“This sharp rise in confidence in part reflects a recovery in activity levels after a number of severe weather events earlier in the year left a trail of destruction across the region. Strong population growth, relatively large house price gains, and elevated prices for horticulture, forestry and dairy products are also likely to have contributed to a more positive outlook,” says Westpac chief economist Dominick Stephens.

Motorists urged to take care

As the weather continues to get colder, winter driving presents new challenges to motorists, says Tasman’s road policing manager Dan Mattison.

“Drivers should allow more time for their journey and exercise caution when experiencing rain, ice or snow. Often, adverse weather will reduce visibility and increase stopping distances, so please remember to increase your following distances when in traffic,” says Dan. Roading contractors will no doubt be working throughout the district during the winter, so motorists need to be mindful of grit and road safety crews or diversions.

TDC says yes to water for 100 years

Gold Medal 2018

Silver Medal 2018

Richmond, Mapua, Brightwater, and Wakefield residents and businesses will have access to water year-round with the Tasman District Council’s continued commitment on Thursday, June 28, to fund the construction of the Waimea Community Dam. Securing a supply of water for urban residents and key horticultural businesses in communities on the Waimea Plains for the next 100 years was part of the Council’s Long Term Plan 2018/28, and nearly 500 people submitted and 100 presented to Council during the consultation process. TDC’s decision gives added momentum to the project which has seen the confirmation of financial support by Nelson City Council last week with the approval of its own Long Term Plan, the confirmation in April by the Government of its financial support through Crown Irrigation Investments Limited, and the confirmation of the capital contribution

by Waimea Irrigators Limited in May. Waimea Water’s Project Director Andy Nelson says that, even with the short delay caused by Department of Conservation land negotiations that have led to the introduction of a Local Bill, the project team has been meeting targets and proceeding toward breaking ground.

“The majority of the work has been completed in advance of starting construction. We will be able to work to the land negotiations.”

Cafe CupCycling now in Richmond The successful CupCycling campaign that has been running in Motueka for the past ten months is now expanding to Richmond.

The innovative programme aims to cut the number of disposable coffee cups people throw away and reduce the waste that ends up in our landfill.

The initiative is to make New Zealand disposable cup-free and CupCycling is led by local business IdealCup. Even compostable cups often end up in the landfill – they need to be processed in commercial composting facilities, which

adds cost and complexity.

To take part in CupCycling you need to pay a $10 bond at any participating café and receive your hot drink in a reusable CupCycling cup. Return the used cup at any participating café for a fresh cup when you need your next caffeine fix.

Every hot drink purchased will receive a discount.

The Richmond Aquatic centre’s café is the first to jump on board and over the next six weeks other cafes in Richmond are joining the initiative.

Mia Coldicott entered the Gold Guitars competition, in Gore over Queens Birthday weekend, purely for the experience.

The year seven Waimea intermediate student never expected to come home with two awards in hand - winning Country Rock section and runner-up in Junior Overall Champion.

“It wasn’t about winning, it was about the experience when I entered the competition,” says Mia, “I just didn’t believe it when I heard my name.”

Sarah Blake, Mia’s mum, says she is a natural, “music is her life, music is her all, music is her everything. From when she was really little, if she wasn’t singing there was something wrong.” Sarah listened to the live-streamed event at home, “I was a mess, it was amazing to hear her singing like that through the radio, I couldn’t believe it, that it was my girl on there.” Mia comes from a musical family on her father’s side, her grandad is quite musical, she says, and they all play instruments, “I would like my grandad to be my manager and roadie, he is my biggest supporter.” Her grandparents surprised her at the finals, “I

Karen Howieson is an accomplished woman. One of the founding members, and the community coordinator, of The Nelson ARK, previously a health promoter and lecturer, with extensive experience in youth work and counselling, with a passion for animals and their welfare.

Now training in equine-led growth and healing through a Rangiora based course, Healing of the Herd, Karen says, “this learning is about equine-assisted coaching involving the medium of horses.”

She is looking to offer her services, named after her horse, called Schiehallion Services – The horses way to heal. “The training is about the horse’s way to heal and transform lives. If anyone is interested, please contact me.”

As anyone who has looked into furthering their education knows, course fees can sometimes be a little out of reach and can even make or break the decision on whether or not to you are able to enrol.

Karen heard from a friend about a community-based organisation that she could apply for a loan through.

The Nelson Angel Women’s Loan Fund, a community-based organisation run by trustees, offer small interest-free loans to women to help

them with their business or studies.

Karen says, “I didn’t realise you could borrow for study, so when I found that out, I went for it. They were very, very supportive and it meant that I could negotiate the way I paid the loan back. And I liked that, by me going through them and paying my loan back, down the track other women could access funds as well.”

The whole process, Karen said, is very straightforward. “From the first point of contact and throughout I found it a really nice, very supportive and conducive process, really comfortable and non-threatening.”

Helping hundreds of women in the region since 2012, Nelson Women’s Angel Loan coordinator, Adele Smith, says that roughly between 20-30 new loans a year are approved. “The applicant has to be able to show what the loan is for and have a basic business plan.

It is an interest-free loan, and they need to prove that they are able to pay it back.” Trustee member Lynne Ehau says they are looking for more borrowers and that any woman can apply for it. Whether it is for establishing or growing a business, or for education or training purposes, find out more on www.nelsonwomensloanfund.co.nz

Get sorted at Richmond Library Do you have a long list of things that you need to do, but never seem to get around to actually doing? You know the sort of thing – worthy activities like organising your will, preparing for retirement, preparing to buy your first home, getting a good night’s sleep.

Richmond Library knows how you feel, so they have organised a series of 17 workshops designed to help you cross these items off your ‘To Do’ list.

Collections Librarian Ruth Lawley says, “Our community has an incredible diversity of skills and experiences to share – from yoga, to te reo Maori and budgeting advice – there are a great range of people and organisations to help get you sorted.”

The free inspirational workshops bring together a wide range of local organisations including Health Action Trust, Nelson Budgeting Service, Te Ataarangi, Turning Point, Age Concern, Nelson Bays Community Law Service, Eternally Yoga and nutritionist Sarah La Touche.

Also included in the programme are computer classes which will get participants well on the road to mastering Facebook, TradeMe, Google, searching historic newspapers, tracing military ancestors and organising photos into photo books online.

Plastic not so fantastic Emily Beaumont Imagine a world without plastic waste. That’s the mission behind Plastic Free July, to build a global movement that drastically reduces plastic use and improves recycling.

From humble beginnings that originated in Perth, Australia, the Plastic Free July Foundation is now an independent, not-for-profit foundation, and on Tuesday, July 3, an event was held in the Nelson College Hall.

Hannah Pressman of Garin College teamed up with Emma Edwards and Robbie Anderson from Nelson College for Girls and Nelson College respectively, to host The Rubbish Trip event coordinated by Enviroschools for Plastic Free July.

“It’s so important. Plastic is one of the worst things that happens to our environment. We haven’t had it long enough to know how to biodegrade it efficiently, so it’s just piling up and in the meantime destroying everything,” says Hannah.

The event kicked off with a zero-waste sausage sizzle to

tion on their activities and products, ranging from menstrual cups to beeswax wraps.

They all share the vision of a world devoid of plastic waste and say that everyone can choose to be part of the solution by avoiding products in plastic packaging, reducing

plastic where possible, refusing plastics that escape as litter and recycling.

The two no-waste nomads behind The Rubbish Trip are Hannah Blumhardt and Liam Prince from Wellington, who began their crusade in 2015.

Tasman confirms big infrastructure focus for next 10 years The Tasman District Council has adopted its Long Term Plan 2018 – 2028, setting out the projects it will carry out, the services it plans to deliver, and how much money it will spend.

Tasman Mayor Richard Kempthorne says, while a lot of the planning conversations had focussed on rates and debt, the true purpose of the Long Term Plan was much broader than that. “All the planning, budgeting and programming is for Tasman’s communities, businesses, households and families. It’s so that everyone can appreciate the environment, have access to community facilities, safe and reliable water and wastewater (and many other services), make a good living, and enjoy a lifestyle that contributes to society.” Richard says upgraded water infrastructure was a big focus for the next 10 years. “We need some major upgrades to improve drinking water quality to meet national standards, and to ensure a secure supply for our growing communities.” The Council will spend $45.5 million on water security and capacity

projects, and $27 million on treatment upgrades across the district over the 10 years. “Population growth continues to put pressure on our existing transport, stormwater, wastewater and water networks, so we’ll also spend $57.5 million on new infrastructure to cater for growth and $164.1 million on upgrades to improve existing services,” says Richard. In addition, there are a range of other projects, large and small, the Council will carry out to improve facilities and services for its communities. Some highlights include: Pohara to Takaka Cycleway $1.18 million 2018 – 2020.

Safe cycle crossing at Champion Road $2.3 million 2019 -2020. Richmond Library extended opening hours.

Brightwater Town Centre Upgrade $870,000 2019 – 2020. Motueka Library redevelopment $3.9 million 2019 – 2021.

Tasman’s Great Taste Trail extension – Spooner’s Tunnel to Motueka $3 million 2019 – 2022. $85,000 per annum for Tasman-based visitor information centres.

Timo Hicks has always loved the sound of his roosters crowing in the morning and now one of his chickens has given the Tapawera Area School year-10 student something of his own to crow about.

Over the weekend of June 9 & 10, Timo, together with his barred rock pullet chicken won the national junior champion at the NZ poultry and pigeon show in Palmerston North.

“I did not expect to win or even place at the nationals. I mainly went for the experience and to gain knowledge from all the experts,” says Timo.

In preparation for the competition, Timo says he bathes his chickens inside before letting them dry by the fire. “Then there’s feathers to preen up and eyebrows to trim.”

Timo started becoming interested in chickens around 2-3 years ago, and in the last 18 months began breeding and has been inspired by local man Frank Bint.

“He (Frank Bint) started me with my chickens and when he comes shearing sheep at our place I quiz him relentlessly on chook rearing and shows.”

Encouraged to enter shows, Timo has had his champion barred rock pullet since she was an egg last spring.

“I felt very overwhelmed when I won the national junior champion prize and couldn’t wait to tell my family and Mr Bint. A lot of people have been very good to me and I feel proud to have done well so they feel good, too.”

A key part of my job is to get good quality public services for the $30,000 the average Nelson household pays in tax each year. My concern is the new Government’s policy of scrapping the measures that help ensure improved health care, better schools and safer communities.

Health Minister David Clark announced last week he was getting rid of the nationwide performance measures for District Health Boards. These report publicly on issues like getting treated promptly at emergency departments, getting more people elective surgery, meeting treatment times for cancer patients and improving child

Opinion on glossy paper: While I love your newspaper, I don’t like the new glossy version so much.

It was more environmentally-friendly to be able to use the pages for starting the fire amongst other uses, and much easier to separate pages without the staples.

Now I have to put the glossy pages in the recycling.

Sandy Watson Editors response: Thanks for your comment, Sandy, but I struggle a wee bit understanding how lighting fires is environmentally-friendly?

And if recycling police demand we separate plastics from cardboard, clear bottles from dark and the list goes on, what would be the problem with a staple the size of a human hair?

immunization rates. We could previously compare how Nelson was doing relative to the 20 other DHBs and whether services were improving. Now we won’t know.

The new Government has done likewise in schools, removing the requirement for reporting on national standards in literacy and numeracy. These gave parents comparative data on how their children were doing and the Ministry of Education information on where schools were failing. This week I had Nelson School Boards raising concerns with me about the lack of any replacement system.

Last week, Network Tasman supplied a comment to the readers regarding power rebates. A response from one of our readers: Hi. It is pleasing to note that Nelson Tasman Trust are going to pay the benefit as credit on our power bill.

It is what was asked for at a meeting early 2016 but were told it was not possible.

Thanks for finally realizing that it is indeed possible.

country not to require primary pupils learning to be assessed and reported against national benchmarks. I am also nervous of Labour’s proposals to remove exams from NCEA Level 1 at Year 11 or fifth form.

Police performance targets have also been dropped. National increased police funding by $500 million last year but sought with it, improved response times for burglaries requiring 98% to be responded to within 48 hours. We also set targets for improved accessibility in regional New Zealand for 24/7 police stations requiring stations like Motueka going 24/7.

We do use the glossy to start our fire as we find it burns well, which is OK for 4 months of the year.

The planet has too much recycling - even the Chinese are turning it down now.

It takes a lot of energy to recycle, which really is the last resort.

First comes rethink then reduce, reuse and lastly, recycle.

And does the glossy cost more to produce?

Diana Gabric Editors response: Hi and I am at a bit of a loss about where you all got the idea that “gloss” is tougher on the environment?

gets across all Government agencies were scrapped in January.

These covered areas like reducing by 25% children hospital admissions for preventable diseases, reducing by 25% waiting times for state housing for high need families and reducing reoffending by criminals by 10,000 by 2021.

Dedicated public servants have expressed disappointment to me that these are gone as they said they helped focus the department’s efforts and helped get agencies working together.

I do not mind a new Government changing priorities or improving on how results are measured. My problem is that if you don’t meas-

ure it, you won’t manage it. Labour says they are increasing spending and the public should just trust them to do better.

Spending on health and education is increased by every Government.

The increases in health were this year smaller than last years. The increases in education were a fraction of what Labour promised.

Regardless of the spending, we need to be focussed on improving services.

The refusal of the Government to have measurable performance targets for our public services is a step backward. Good intentions are not enough. It is results that matter.

Performing arts teacher goes global Amy Russ Reporter

Waimea Colleges teacher of performing arts, Melanie Stewart, has been selected as one of eight teachers around the country to represent New Zealand in London as a member of Shakespeare Globe Centre New Zealand Teachers Go Global 2018 (SGCNZ TGG 2018).

The group will participate in a two-week programme in July, with the Globe’s leading practitioners and a director.

Based mainly at the theatre, Melanie will be involved in workshops, Q&A sessions, performances and will have the opportunity to perform for the public on the Globe stage.

Melanie says she is very excited to have been accepted, “I have a passion for Shakespeare, and for giving students the opportunity to perform Shakespeare, and hope this experience will give me more tools to help my students.

For more than four decades, Richmond’s Gary Clover has had an interest in culture change and conversion in early contact-era New Zealand.

On Sunday, July 8, at Stoke’s Methodist Church, Gary will launch his book; Collision, Compromise and Conversion during the Wesleyan Hokianga Mission, 1827-1855.

The book is a critical study of Hokianga maori, missionary and kauri merchant interactions, with Gary recounting tales of maoripakeha inter-connections, saints and rogues, and the Hokianga mission’s rise and decline, during an era of enormous turmoil and change in which the lives of both Maori and European were

changed irreparably.

“The Hokianga has been neglected by professional and academic historians. I’m trying to fill the gap to inform the Methodists’ 2019 bicentenary commemorations,” says Gary.

A retired Methodist Presbyter, Gary has published two earlier monographs and after this weekend’s book launch will travel to the Hokianga.

“I’ll be making a presentation to the volunteer-run Omapere Community Museum and Archive in Hokianga, and will promote my book to the other various local museums and public libraries.”

Book launch – all welcome. Sunday, July 8, 3pm at Stoke Methodist Church lounge, 92 Neale Avenue.

High placings for local gymnasts Local gymnasts had a successful weekend in Blenheim at the Marlborough championships over June 23 & 24, competing against Wellington, Christchurch, Greymouth and Blenheim.

Senior WAG (Woman’s Artistic Gymnasts) competed well, and Richmond’s Sophie Manson Step 9 won her allaround competition, with a 1st on Beam and Floor, 2nd on Bar and 3rd on Vault. Sophie will travel to Christchurch on July 7 & 8, to trial for an international competition in Perth later in the year.

Fellow Richmond gymnast Dani Cooper in step 5 placed 3rd overall, 2nd on Bar and 3rd= on Vault. Both girls have qualified for the TOTS Team (Top of the South), that will head to Tauranga for the National Championships in October.

Their next big competition, Top of the South, at the Trafalgar Centre over the weekend of July 13-15, will comprise of gymnasts from all over New Zealand competing.

All spectators are welcome to watch the top gymnasts from around the country compete.

Two players hit milestones for Waimea Combined Rugby Waimea travelled south on Saturday to play Christ’s College in Christchurch. With perfect conditions for running rugby, Christ’s got off to a flyer, scoring within the first five minutes to take the lead. Waimea spent the majority of the first half in their red zone, defending strongly for over 25 minutes.

Danny Barham’s work rate was exceptional, topping the tackle count. Waimea let in two more tries to go into the half time break down 21 nil.

Early in the second half, following a soft try scored by Christ’s, Waimea finally got some pill and were able to showcase their flair, with Duncan Drysdale flying down the left-hand side after being given room to move by second-five Jan Lammers. Waimea built pressure through amazing ball retention and after more than 15 phases, Waimea had their first try through Tyler Palmer dotting down on the far left.

Five minutes later Drysdale

found some more real estate to move, beating two defenders in the process to give Waimea back-to-back tries.

Waimea’s bench added impact when they came on, with replacement halfback Tom Bassett-Eason having a strong performance in the last 20.

Jack Hahn also provided some structure when he slotted into #10, five minutes into the 2nd half. Jayde Palmer found a gap to touch down and converted his own try.

It was all too little too late however with Waimea losing 47-17.

A special milestone was reached on Saturday for one young man in the team.

Captain Jake Goeddert played his 50th game for the team, a very rare achievement, having played for the team for three seasons to get there.

Cameron Rodrigue played his 25th for the team too, and was presented with his cap following the game.

WEDNESDAY 4 July 2018

About seventy of us met and were welcomed by Superintendent Mike McIlraith, who stated that the purpose of the meeting was to hear from the shooting community how best to administer the Arms Act. He stated at the outset that the Act was not going to change. The police were finding it difficult to administer - in his words, it was ‘paper-heavy’and he had been charged with the job of working with shooters to make sure the existing firearms laws were followed efficiently and fairly. Currently the quarter-million licenced firearms users bring in $5.5 million a year, whereas it costs the police $11 million to administer the Act. His job therefore was to fix how the Arms Act was administered, and to work with shooters until it was fixed. He had a small team and a very small budget. He wanted to co-operate with the shooting community, and for the shooting community to co-operate with the police, and for future action to be guided by those who were involved in the shooting sports.

The meeting was asked to make any suggestions as to how to improve matters. The suggestions were to be discussed and the meeting would conclude by participants agreeing which were the most significant five. Mike McIlraith and his colleague occasionally spoke to clear up questions raised from the floor. Many of the questions that were raised are already covered online here http://www.police.govt.nz/advice/firearms-and-safety/newsand-updates The meeting had no other structure and, as such, it is difficult to arrange points in anything other than the confused manner they arose.

From the Police: Police are keen to remove paperwork as much as possible because it ties up staff.

Online applications are far cheaper if people are happy to use them. https://www.realme.govt.nz/ is a government method for verifying online identity and could be used to simplify interactions between police and shooters.

From the floor: Not everyone at the meeting was happy to use this for reasons of online privacy.

A show of hands revealed that most were prepared to use online transactions, but a fair minority

were concerned about hacking.

From the floor: What’s the police policy on Trademe? Have they handed Trademe a list of the country’s firearms licence holders, with all the likelihood of that being hacked?

From the Police: At present it is up to individuals whether or not to inform Trademe that they are a Firearms Licence holder. The police do not give a list of licence holders to Trademe. Trademe asks the police if an individual is a licence holder, and the police merely give a yes/no answer.

From the floor: Some of the recent law changes have been ridiculous. You may no longer import air pistols. The law now says that an air pistol may not resemble a real pistol.

From the Police: Gulp!

From the floor: The Counties Manakau facebook video of police destroying firearms panders to the anti-gun lobby. Two Anschütz air rifles, of precision accuracy but very low power, are shown being destroyed, and each cost upwards of five thousand dollars. Elderly farmers seeing it might be discouraged from handing in their guns. If the police wanted old guns handed in, this video should be taken down.

From the Police: Thank you, I’ll see it’s deleted.

From the floor: Did the police keep a record of firearms incidents? It would be useful to know how any accident or deliberate shooting happened so we can get a clear picture of firearms abuse and firearms crime.

From the Police: The press report any hunting accident, but police do not give further details of that incident until after any court case or inquest.

From the floor: The police website has a link to a statistical analysis, under a search for A Hunter’s tale. https://www.mountainsafety.org.nz/insights/a-hunters-tale/ From the Police: Training is difficult to achieve and expensive in remote places like Haast. The pre-exam safety lecture is to be improved to include handling of deactivated firearms. Police encourage new licence holders to associate with clubs or experienced hunters. It was worrying when a new licence holder pur-

chased a gun and then asked the shopkeeper to explain how to use it. The teaching of gun handling needed to happen well before someone owned a gun.

lice were to engage more with the press whenever the police association made one of their anti-gun statements, and to state that it did not represent the official view.

From the floor: It was suggested that the ten-year relicensing could be of benefit as a refresher course in gun safety.

From the Police: The press decide what to publish. Mike McIlraith had been interviewed for five minutes on camera, and all that was shown afterwards was a fivesecond clip. Police have no control over the press.

From the Police: An online safety course is being devised. Police are encouraged when firearms safety training takes place in schools and youth organisations.

From the floor: Police were praised in their handling of firearms going through international airports in NZ by those travelling into or out of the country for sporting or competitive reasons.

From the floor: Referees should not only know an applicant, but also be experienced shooters. It was suggested that if an inappropriate person asked a friend to be a referee, the duty of a referee was to accept the invitation, and then inform the arms officer why the referee deemed the applicant inappropriate. (“I had a good mate but he was a right plonker and he asked me to be a referee, and I thought, no way is he ever going to be safe with a gun, so I said yes, and then I told the interviewing bloke why I thought he was a plonker. That way I took a danger out of the community. He didn’t get his licence.” Harsh, but responsible.)

From the Police: Inappropriate applicants are discouraged along the way before they sit the safety exam. People with a history of violence or depression soon know not to continue with their application. 99% of applicants have their licence granted.

Mental illness is not an obstacle if it is under medical care, but if a licence holder stops taking their medication and becomes a danger to themselves or others, it is up to anyone who knows them to alert police to the problem.

From the floor: Could the police redress the negative coverage given to the police association over any firearms issue? The police association is a union and their leaders consistently ask for tight firearms control and gun registration. It was pointed out that the press tend to portray the police association as giving the official NZ police view. NZ police is a government body and has the duty to remain neutral, but it would be encouraging if NZ po-

From the floor: Can you clarify who may sell ammunition?

From the Police: A licence holder may sell ammunition to another licence holder.

From the floor: Could police arms officers be more consistent over NZ in their approach to licence holders? In some districts the arms officer followed the exact law, while in other districts an arms officer might be officious and ask for details beyond his authority.

From the Police: Superintendent McIlraith acknowledged that many constables were unclear on their authority over arms and accepted that more training of police officers was required.

From the floor: Should there be a register of arms if a large number, say more than fifteen, of guns were held?

From the Police: There are no plans for a register. If there were to be a register it would require Parliament to change the law. It would not be a matter for police.

Police only uphold the law: they do not make it. Owners should keep a record for themselves.

From the floor: What if a bloke did something bad, and the police came to seize his guns? What’s to stop him handing in fifteen and keeping twenty of them hidden away?

From the floor: Registration doesn’t work; we know that; and fifteen or any other number is arbitrary. What would stop him keeping just one gun hidden if he had two?

From the Police: Gun registration was used in Canada and it didn’t work and has been abandoned there.

From the floor: How big is the problem of stolen firearms?

From the Police: Without check-

ing the numbers, it’s believed that around 700 guns are stolen each year.

From the floor: What do the police deem as an acceptable number of illegally held firearms? We have to be realistic that there are illegal guns in circulation.

From the Police: There is no acceptable number. The police position is that no firearm may be in the possession of anyone who does not hold a firearms licence.

From the floor: It was suggested that gun owners keep a record of each gun, its serial number, make, model, and a photograph of it. Police do not have authority to ask for these details. Nor do they have the resources to compile a list. This would be solely the business of the gun owner and would be useful in the event of a burglary.

Summary The meeting concluded with a summing up of what the participants thought were the five most important points. (These were reasonably consistent from meetings held so far throughout the country.)

1. Communication. There needed to be clear and easy communication between police and licence holders.

2. Consistency. Police needed to apply a consistent policy across the country, and officers needed to know what details they could and could not ask for, and what security arrangements they could and could not demand.

3. Online verification needed to be reliable and secure and could make applications simpler.

4. A balanced media coverage was needed to stop the press indulging in a pointless frenzy targeting the responsible gun owner after any gun crime. This was not the responsibility of police bu, tthey would do what they could.

5. Safety training needed to be enhanced, and referees needed to be experienced in shooting and honest in their opinions.

The police were thanked at the end in the usual way, and Superintendent McIlraith said he was going to the UK for a week to study how their firearms acts were administered in three regions - in Northern Ireland, in Scotland, and from the Home Office in London. He was studying only the administration, and the NZ government was not planning to bring in UK firearms laws.

WEDNESDAY 4 July 2018

Football couple are devoted to youngsters Alan and Marion Mathews have been coaching the 1st kicks (4–6 year olds) for over 20 years, and on Saturday morning at 8.15am when they arrived at Jubilee Park with a brilliant shining sun on one side, a huge pale full moon on the other, and the park covered with sparkling frost, they were reminded once again why they still do it.

“Kicking Off ” at 9am, they first do a warm up and then introduced their new game, crossing the pond. The pond is the centre circle of the football pitch and the players are the frogs. They learn to move forwards and sideways and have to avoid the other frogs crossing from other parts of the circle. They do it without a ball and then have a ball of their own. Alan and Marion ensure they get all the parents involved and everyone has a great time. It’s a fantastic introduction to sport for the

young players.

But Alan and Marion’s day is not over then, at 10.30am they then head to Saxton Field and run the Fun Football programme for Richmond, which is for 7-8 year olds.

Richmond has five teams in this age group and they play two matches each week against the other clubs in the area. The emphasis for this programme is on playing and having fun. And it’s wonderful to see that they can use many skills they have practised in their games.

In the afternoon at Jubilee Park there were 5 senior matches, with the Fresh Choice Richmond 1st team playing FC Nelson at 3pm.

The young Richmond side continue to play good football and the supporters and fans on the side line can see their progress every week.

And with an average age of about 16, this young side will

Richmond F45 well under control

HLS Waimea Old Boys RFC Rugby Round-Up

WEDNESDAY 4 July 2018

Richmond F45 had this week’s game well under control when they faced off against Prices A at Saxton Stadium.

The 1st quarter started slowly with both teams guilty of not converting their possession into points. There was a lot of netball being played and a low score for the first five minutes, but it wouldn’t take long for the two teams to find their stride.

Richmond finally settled in for the 2nd half of this quarter with some great patience shown by the attacking end.

Nicely-fed ball from Lisa Book and Sharon Evans found shooters Belinda Koloamatangi and Harriet Ogilvie.

Richmond defence was still without the experience of Kat Jones, however the pairing of Amy Cunningham and Sarah Steele worked hard to cause confusion within Prices’ shooting end for precious turnovers, giving Richmond F45 a good 8-point lead at the end of the 1st quarter, 13-5.

With no changes for the 2nd quarter, Richmond started strongly.

There were a couple of exceptional intercepts from Jelena Vucinic

Sarah Steele and Amy Cunningham with some tight defence on the Prices shooters. Photo: Supplied. at WD to help deliver beautiful ball and speed and placement from the well-experienced and seasoned feeding duo of Lisa &

Sharon from the circle end.

Young dual-registered player Harriet came into her own, slotting her shots from all around the

circle.

Richmond defence had to adjust with the addition of height into the Prices shooting circle with

Holly Chandler moving from the defence, but Amy & Sarah teamed well to take some strong rebounds.

Richmond played with patience and structure throughout this quarter and managed to pull away with a healthy 21-12 score line.

Changes made into the 3rd quarter saw Mackenzie Orange shift into WD and Abbie Franklin into GS. Richmond enjoyed the extra height from Abbie where she found her shooting range quickly and landed some impressive shots.

Lisa used her experience with some clever and deceptive passing into Abbie putting Prices defence under pressure and allowing Richmond F45 to continue to pull away.

Mackenzie Orange wanted to put her stamp into this quarter as well taking several clean intercepts and penetrating clean delivery into her shooters.

3rd quarter score 33-18.

Richmond would be pleased with their team efforts and versatility throughout the match, with wining honours of 45-28.

and only a Ben Eder try to add to their half-time score.

Moutere had much of the play in the second half as their big forwards continually made big yards through the tough Waimea defence. Waimea will be happy to take 5 points from their trip but will look to add some urgency to their effort when they travel again to Seddon this week to take on the in-form East Coast.

Senior B Takaka 29 v HLS WOBRFC 29 Saturday saw the Waimea Div 2 team head over the hill to take on Takaka in a game they were expected to win, but it didn’t go their way with a hard fought 29 all draw. It was Takaka’s club day and they played with commitment and purpose, keeping the Waimea team under pressure for some long periods.

The front row of Adam Hahn, Tom Williams and Jadyn Moore (man of the match) battled hard for Waimea. The three players are forming a formidable combination and ensuring there is a good platform for the side to launch from. Waimea had numerous

opportunities to ensure the result was the one they wanted but through some handling errors and not finishing off opportunities it meant the fiery Takaka team were kept in the game.

Waimea scored five tries and when they used the pace of their outside backs they looked very dangerous in attack. Waimea are currently sitting third in the table and next week sees the lads back at home for another tough challenge against Collingwood.

Women’s Rugby Marist 12 v HLS WOBRFC 51 For the final league game of the season Waimea travelled to Tahuna to play rivals Marist.

Right from the kick off it was a scrappy affair. It looked like it was going to be a closely fought contest with both teams trying to attack but handling errors let both sides down. Waimea opened the scoring through a try to Anya Schultz with Betham Manners adding the extras two points.

Waimea had the advantage with the forwards dominant in the set piece. Waimea scored

another 2 tries with one converted. At half-time Waimea led 17-0. It was much the same at the start of the second half with Waimea scoring another well-earned converted try.

Marist dug deep and their determination was rewarded with their first try. Waimea responded, putting together some well-worked moves to score four unanswered tries.

Marist didn’t throw the towel in and kept attacking Waimea when they had the chance and finally, through not giving up, scored their second, and last, try. Waimea weren’t finished and scored their final try just before the full-time whistle with a winning score line of 51-12. Waimea coach Adam Fraine says the first 20 minutes of the game was very scrappy with lots of frustration being shown by both sides, but then Waimea started to relax and play the rugby that they are known for.

Adam says that there were some standout performances and awarded 3 points to Leah Miles who was a menace at the breakdown all game. Phoenix Lolly was awarded 2 points as her defence was immense all game. One point went to Tessa

Hiller who never stopped driving the ball into the heart of the Marist defence.

Waimea are currently sitting second on the competition table.

Senior A Moutere 29 v HLS WOBRFC 42 Waimea travelled to Awarua Park Spring Creek to take on Moutere on a crisp fine Blenheim day. Waimea started fast and from a mistake from the kick off by the hosts Cullian Stringer scored out wide.

It got better for Waimea with further tries to halfback Xavier Albert and Alex Coventry inside the 1st 20 minutes, leaving the visitors sitting pretty.

Waimea winger Mo Tau was taken high in a tackle and the opposite Moutere winger was red-carded, followed not long after with another card, a yellow for the same offence by a Moutere team-mate.

It seemed to affect Waimea for the rest of the half, more than the offending. Waimea got their attack machine rolling again with three tries to Chris King and second tries to Cullian and Xavier, holding a lead 38 to 17 at the break. To Moutere’s credit they upped their effort with their limited numbers to score three times before the break, and things didn’t improve much for Waimea in the second half with the same poor defence

nament was a good way to show what we needed to improve on, to up the intensity for the training, and make the girls go hard.”

“Given that we can’t train three times a week, we rely on the girls putting in the work at home,” says Frances. “We have different ideas about the way we want the teams to play, so that takes time. Each session we plan around what we are trying to get out of it, whether it’s offense or defence, or fundamentals. The big thing is building the Tasman team’s chemistry, and the trust between the players. It’s also about getting them to play as a team; the more time they can spend together, the better.”

In the build-up to the big tourna-

ment, “it’s great to see the girls improving every week, as they get used to playing with each other,” says Jelena. “A lot of them are used to doing everything them-

selves, then they come to the bigger Tasman team, and it’s about learning trust – that they can make that pass, and trust their team-mates to make the shots,”

says Frances. “Our players are all a similar size, so it will be challenging to come up against some bigger players, but we can use it to our advantage and maybe run them off the floor! Our girls have different strengths; some who are strong with ball in hand, others who are coming on well as shooters, a couple who fizz when playing defence. “Ideally, it would be great if we win two or three games in pool play and make it into the top eight, that’s always the goal, but the important thing is we walk away from our games having competed well, and having played to all our own standards – then we can look back and say it was a success.”

J and D grade squash players battle in series two Sunday was cold, wet, and miserable, it wasn’t a great day to be out and about.

But it was the perfect day to hold Waimea Squash Club’s 2nd J and D grade tournament of the season.

Designed for juniors (J grade), and learner to intermediate level players (D grade and below), there were 35 entries for the competiton from around the region.

It was also a great opportunity to test out the newly-installed heat pump.

With pink batts installed in the ceiling last year, and now this additional heat source, the facilities remained cozy and warm all day.

A key milestone in the club’s strategic improvement plan is now achieved, to the benefit of members, visitors, and supporters alike.

Competitors had more on their mind than keeping warm though.

They had matches to play and opponents to beat.

The juniors played three matches each, playing American scoring for 20 mins duration.

In the J1, Jaxon Palmer-Bensseman, of Waimea, beat Jack Gibbs (also Waimea) in the final to win the top junior division.

Jessie Childs of Takaka won the J2 division, and Noa Fitsimmons of Motueka won the J3.

The D grade and below competitors played two matches each, following the more standard best-offive-games format.

In the Womens Div 1, Nicola Pilkington managed to fend off Nan Gale, both of Waimea, to take the title.

Both players had thrilling matches during the day, but Nicola’s shot playing choices proved too good for Nan. The Men’s Div 1 title came down to Ethan Harwood of Takaka and Matt Watene of Motueka, both keen young players to watch out for in the future.

Ethan managed to win this encounter, to the delight of Takaka supporters.

For the other winners of the day; the mixed division was won by Harry Edwards of Nelson.

The men’s div 2 winner was Logan McCrae of Waimea.

Men’s div 3 winner Alastair Byrne of Motueka.

Men’s div 4 winner Taine Reynish of Takaka.

For players participating in the series, their points accumulate through to the third final competiton in August.

At this point in time, a number of players are in the running and it’s too close to call.
