Will you marry me... at 3500 ft?

Sinead Ogilvie A local marriage celebrant says he got the shock of his life when he was asked to marry a visiting German couple at 3500 feet above ground and was even more surprised to be asked to seal the deal with a skydive jump from 16,500 feet.

Richmond marriage celebrant Lester Oakes married Jan Schlesner and Susann Lasch on Saturday, making the couples dream wedding possible when he performed their ceremony in a small skydive plane followed by the jump. The couple, who first met while learning how to skydive, wanted to tie the knot in the same way and approached Abel Tasman Skydive in Motueka to organise the re-

gions first ever marriage of its kind.

Lester followed the couple out of the plane door after the paper work was signed off, completing his first ever skydive and what he describes as his most unique wedding ever.

“I’d even put it above the ceremony where I had to dress as Elvis for a Vegas style wedding,” he says.

Lisa Chambers of Skydive Abel Tasman hopes this will be the first of many similar weddings. She says there are often requests to land in unique spots, like someone’s garden, but this was the first time there had ever been a request to be married in the air right before the skydive.

Slow down on Queen St Phillip Rollo

The speed limit on Queen St might be lowered to just 30km/h, according to a Tasman District Council engineering report that states Cambridge St and part of Wensley Rd could be next.

The council reviews its speed limit bylaw every ten years and its recommendations, authored by transportation projects engineer Steve Elkington, will be ticked off by

the engineering services committee tomorrow before going out for public consultation later this month.

The 20km/h speed limit drop on Queen St is the most notable change in the draft, although speed surveys report that the average speed outside council offices is just 39km/h anyway.

Steve says the current speeds are excessive, and a new retail complex could increase the amount of foot traffic in the area. “The

“I don’t think it’s going to make a scrap of difference though. The travel distance isn’t very far, lets be honest.”

Steve says a new speed limit of 30km/h would be beneficial if the street parking changed from parallel to angle parking in the future. “We would like to alter it to create more on-street parking. We just want to set a precedence for what we see will be the key changes to Queen St in the future.

It will be a slow speed environment.”

“I don’t think it’s going to make much difference. Traffic flow seems to work fine, especially with those courtesy crossings.”

“It’s quite restrictive depending on the time of the day. It’s probably not a good idea.”

“I think it’s a good idea because people are walking across and you have to stop quickly and they’re not just on the cross walks.”

“It’s a bloody good idea because it’s always such a hassle trying to cross the street. 30km/h would be a lot easier.”

Car show’s final burnout

Local drivers Hayden Cole and Marc Cederman both finished on the podium of the Nelson Car Show’s burnout competition over the weekend but they may not have the chance to defend their placings.

The winner of the competition – Christchurch’s Steve Saul aka Mr Sicko – believes the Nelson City Council should be doing more to keep the event going, despite the weekend’s comp being its last.

Steve, now two-time winner of the burnout competition in his 1979 Ford F100, organises six similar events in his hometown of Christchurch, and says it’s a shame that the Nelson event is now ending because council consent is not being renewed at the venue next to the World of Wearable Art and Classic Car Museum. “They still have boy racer problems in Christchurch but we get a lot of entrants and everyone backs me. The council down there are really good because it’s done at a speedway,” he says. But Mr Sicko believes the decision to end the burnout competition will just create more problems on the streets and that the council should be more supportive.

Event organiser Steve Steel says the event was created to promote doing burnouts in a con-

“This is what the kids do out on the road. It’s a fun event and how often do you get to see it, let alone be involved in it?” he says. “The calibre of entries is always pretty high but there were a number of new ones this year.”

But he acknowledged that council is not interested in supporting it. “We’re going to have to come

up with a new event so if anyone has any ideas or offers then give me a ring on 021 707 212.”

Steve says the burnout competition was the perfect warm up for this weekend’s Nelson Car Show, which is being held at the Parkers Rd end of the Tahuna Holiday Park this Saturday and Sunday from 10am. Entry to the event is $5 per adult and under 12s are free.

Optometrist backs AA eye tests Phillip Rollo

belled the current AA eye screening tests professional eye examination. “If anyone as “diabolical and frustrating.” He believes has one eye that is perhaps a little lazy, it the AA is using sub-standard equipment will automatically fail them,” he says. “But because every single time he undergoes it does that for a reason because then the the eye screening test he fails. He has been health of the good eye can be looked at. cleared by an optometrist after each failure. “With my eyes I cannot use those machines. I have to wear soft contact lenses but even with those in the machine won’t allow me to pass the test,” he says. “I should just be able to go in there, get my test done and that’s the end of it.”

But Mick Toll of Specsavers, where the 18 year old woman then went for an eye test following her conflicting AA results, stressed that the eye screening test is simple with only a pass or fail criteria, and quite often eye screening test failures can be the first sign that somebody needs a Richmond optomestrist Mick Toll says the current AA eye screening process works excellenty.

If you fail an eye screening test at the AA it doesn’t necessarily mean you have bad eye sight, according to a Richmond optometrist who suggests getting it done well before your practical driving examination.

Last week Waimea Weekly spoke to an 18 year old woman who had to re-book her restricted driving examination after failing an eye screening test at the Nelson AA, only to pass the same eye test in Richmond just hours later.

She was not the only one either. David Ludlow says his 16 year old son had the same problem late last year. “It took literally a minute and they failed him. After we bought an AA membership, which they told us we could get a free eye test by joining, he was told by the optometrist that he had 20/20 vision and there was nothing wrong with him,” David explains.

Hank Verhoeven of Richmond has la-

We will often see people and pass them because the good eye meets the visual standard. The machine does the right thing.”

Mick says the current eye screening process at the AA “works excellently” and that the public needs to allow for more time in between getting the eye test and going for their licence. “People just need to know if they fail the AA test it doesn’t mean they need glasses for driving.”

He was not sure why two of the same screening tests would have differing results, although AA statistics showed that 2.5 per cent of people fail the screening test without needing corrective lenses.

David McLister, the AA driver and vehicle licensing general manager, says that previously AA customers would book their practical driving examination in store and do the eye screening test at the time of the booking. But now that more people were booking online, the recommendation that people should arrive just 30 minutes prior to the examination probably needed to be lengthened.

Hospice shop Car flips across Moutere Highway robbed again The acting Hospice Shop manager has labelled further shoplifting as “disgusting”, after the donation box was taken from the front counter this week.

The incident follows a string of shoplifting from the thrift shop, which fundraises money for the Nelson Hospice. Last month two mining lamps and some clothing was stolen.

Acting manager Cheryl Gascoyne believes there was around $25 in the box, all of which was going to the regional hospice. She says the shop’s volunteers are disgusted and morale is low. “It’s affecting the morale of the staff who feel guilty, although it’s no one’s fault,” she says.

“Shoplifting is rife. Because there has been one after another you have wonder whether someone is targeting us.”

Cheryl says the public has been supportive during the past month and that extra measures were being taken to beef up security, including new security cameras.

Two women had to be cut out of a car after it flipped on the Moutere Highway, following a collision with a logging truck, says Richmond Volunteer Fire Brigade chief fire officer Ralph Lonsdale.

He believes the car was hit from behind by the logging truck, after turning back onto the road near the Stoneridge Cafe on Friday afternoon.

He would not speculate as to why the accident occurred but says the two occupants of the vehicle will be counting their

lucky stars after they appeared to have no serious injuries, despite needing to have the car roof cut off. “Who is at fault is something that the police will tell us in time,” he says. “The paramedics wanted to bring them out on backboards just in case they had whiplash. That required us to make the car a convertible.”

Ralph says it took approximately 30 minutes for the roof to be cut off, because the rear of the vehicle was sitting in a creek. “They were quiet and not saying much, obviously in shock.”

Krista says the number of motorcycle crashes is not growing. However, it does remain at a worryingly high number. “You’re vulnerable on a motorbike, just like you are on a push bike, so if you’re going to have a crash, it’s going to hurt a lot more than if you’re in a car.”

The courses are being subsidised by TDC and the New Zealand Transport Agency.

A solar-powered coffee cart is just one of the creative innovations featured at the Nelson Lakes second annual eco-friendly festival, which is being held at Kerr Bar, Lake Rotoiti, this Sunday.

Activities will be on the land, on the lake and in the air.

They include scenic flights that will be run from near St Arnaud, Murton’s classic boats will be on display, the water taxi will be running with kayaks, wetsuits and more for hire. A ‘get creative with digital photos’ demonstration will be held while there is also a natural history discovery and adventure trail, and the popular have a go at archery.

Forty local product market stalls are booked and there is no entry fee to the festival.

Helen Campbell, of the organising team Destination Nelson Lakes, says it is important to

honour the “natural quiet” required by the national park’s legislation and was excited for another year of the popular festival.

The history stall was often one of the most visited. “You can also collect a historic guide for places you can visit another time,” says Helen.

“And historic film clips will be running all day in the audio visual theatre at the Department of Conservation Visitor Centre.”

The Kea Historic Hut on the Mt Robert circuit will be open and staffed by Nelson Ski Club members with a welcome cup of tea for visitors.

This hut is normally closed, so this is a special opportunity, says Helen.

From 3pm the Tophouse Historic Hotel will be open for High Tea and history.

The fair began as a boot sale by the playgroup, but was then passed on to residents of

the community. “We’ve got a bunch of people together who thought they could raise some money and do some good in the area,” she says. “All of the proceeds go back into the community.”

There will also be food and market stalls, art auctions, as well as children’s activities.

Top cops recognised

Two Nelson police officers were awarded the silver merit award last week, after helping save two suicidal people in two separate incidents.

Constable Glen Lloyd-Jones and senior constable Peter Cobbledick were both praised for their efforts by district commander superintendent Richard Chambers at the Pay Parade ceremony at the Nelson police station last Friday.

In all, 29 officers were presented with various awards most of them for their work in Christchurch after the earthquake or for long service.

But it was the actions of Glen, who around a year ago spent an hour talking to a man at Rabbit Island who had a sawn-off 22 gun to his head, which drew the most praise. Glen’s family from Wellington attended the parade and he says it was a proud moment. “I was a bit nervous but it all turned out well. It was a pretty good day.” He says it’s certainly not the first time he’s had to check on a suicidal person but this incident was a bit different. “He just didn’t want to come. It took us a wee while but we got there in the end and it came out all good with nothing bad happening so it was a good result.”

Richard said the actions of Glen and Peter were outstanding and the sort of work that give police a good name.

Peter wasn’t at the parade but earlier accepted the award from Richard who said he smashed his way into a Brightwater garage to drag a man, who was attempting to asphyxiate himself with carbon monoxide, to safety.

Detective Pat Nally received the District Commander’s Certificate of Commendation and Geoff Scott, who is now retired, was awarded a certificate for 40 years’ service.

Senior constable Gerry Tonkin was also awarded the 35 year clasp for long service and good conduct.

The Red Checkers, who are the Royal New Zealand Air Force’s formation aerobatics team, showcased its flying skills for free in the skies of Nelson above the Tahunanui suburb, and many were thrilled to see them for the first time or again, having previously witnessed their death-defying stunts at air shows around the country.

Sharon Entwistle and Miriam Watson were down at the playing fields on Sunday and say it was the first time they had witnessed the skills of The Red Checkers. “It’s a big thrill to see them,” says Sharon.

“I just hope there are thousands of people down on the beach watching it because it’s definitely worth it,” says Miriam, who added that she told everyone she could to head down and watch the display. “They’re so close aren’t they?

They’re like a hundred metres above us.”

Miriam says the display lived up to her expectations but she didn’t want to see anymore “frightening things” from them.

Richmond man Wayne Mackey had seen The Red Checkers at the Warbirds over Wanaka aeroshow and says that the Tahunanui Playing Fields was another good location to witness them. “They’re very precise and very professional. It’s a great display and it’s a good push for the airforce,” he says.

Robert McPhail was impressed by the skills of the pilots.

“I’ve seen them at least once before. I think it was the Red Checkers, or an a similar group from the airfare.”

Helen Johnson, who was visiting the region, says she had seem them flying over Auckland before. Helen came down to the Tahunanui Playing Fields “for something to do and a bit of entertainment,” she says. “It was a great midday activity and you don’t see things like this too often.”

The Air Force has a close association with Nelson as the Nelson Airport was an RNZAF station during the Second World War, and the Air Force still conducts a lot of training in the area.

AA eye tests catch out more locals: I failed the eye test for my full license in AA Nelson, they still let me do the test however and I passed.

They just said one eye is more dominant than the other. Ella Kilpatrick.

I also could only see the two columns in Nelson, they told me it was because my eyes focused as opposed to looking forward.

No...but I’m slightly pissed off at having to pay $38 to update and have “needs corrective lenses” taken off my drivers licence, after having had laser eye surgery. My driver licence doesn’t expire for another 7 years!

Michelle Walker.

Jo Williams.

Yes I failed my eye test there so had to pay for a test at the opticians which I passed. Maybe there is somethong wrong with the machine!

Jade Lowe.

I was in the AA when the girl was there, they tried pretty hard to help her, gave her I would say three or four goes, maybe the AA should just send everyone to get eye tests, then see how much people complain.

Buskers go good: Went to the Buskers Go Bad show at the Boat House on Friday night, they were superb. Well done to all involved. (Via text).

I went to the optometrist and got 100 per cent so they said my eyes just weren’t compatible with their machine. Hannah Coote.

Laptop too costly?

Thanks for the story on Garin College which now requires students to have a laptop. I will not be sending my children there. Totally over the top costwise in tough times like these. (Via text).

We live in Annesbrook, and had to close the house up and retreat inside from the smell and smoke of burning rubber. Not everyone is a petrol-head - great events if you are, but couldn’t they be held somewhere not quite so close to a residential area?

Pauline Hadfield.

We live in Stoke not far from WOW and we had no issues.

Enjoy listing to the crowds and the smell of rubber not that bad!! Maybe if people stop being so up tight about it.

I’m prerty sure your partner/husband/ brother was young once! Nicky Wiren.

Don’t even think the smoke was thick enough to even leave the area Pauline, maybe you guys could help us out by pointing out or finding us a new area?? We all pay our taxes etc so why can’t we enjoy something too?

If we can get another venue how would you two ladys like to jump in the passengers seat or maybe we could find you a car to have a go in, its really a lot fun. Jamez Hume.

Show was OK but car classes need to be divided. V8s should be separate classes to the others.

Take the family back to basics and enjoy a day out in the country at the Murchison A&P Show this Saturday. This year the theme is all about the traditional country picnic, grab a basket, fill it with delicious kiwi picnic food and settle down with a rug at the show to celebrate a day full of fun events in the sun.

The A&P Show is in its 93rd year and is a great opportunity for the local community to get together and enjoy a great day out. There is something for everyone, big kids, little kids and adults too. From bouncy castles to merry-go-rounds, obstacle courses, homemade goods, displays, stalls, handcrafts and farming equipment the

community event has it all.

Along with the traditional ring class and show jumping equestrian events the western section will be a standout. The newly introduced section will feature on country calendar, so watch out for the cameras that will roll into town.

Give man’s best friend a bath or brush off your llamas best coat because local children will be able to bring their favourite domestic or farm animal along for a chance to shine on show day.

Organiser Sue Cooper says the focus on family fun and children involvement is all a part of the A&P Show festivities.

“We encourage everybody to pack up a picnic and head down this weekend, there is a lot on for the kids with heaps of events and old-fashioned picnic games. The show is all about having a great day out with friends and family.”

A variety of fantastic displays have come on board again this year with a shearing competition, wood chopping, dog sledding, duck herding and a cowboy challenge demonstration lined up to impress. While there is certainly a lot to watch

Dance party leaves its mark

A four day rave held up the Wairoa Gorge concluded with some event-goers being branded by hot iron, but one of the performers believes Alien Nation is all about the music and not about being burned.

Oscar Allison, who goes by the stage name Grouch, says Alien Nation – now in its 11th year – brings together some of the most community minded people in New Zealand “that also like to party”.

“For me it’s been a great homecoming.

It’s like seeing family again,” says the Nelson-born artist now based in Mauritius. “There seems to be this taboo, ew, culty judgement surrounding this whole Organiser Warwick Harrington brands the Alien Nation logo onto the side of one of the thing just because it doesn’t fit into the event-goers. Photo: Phillip Rollo. mould, but it’s something for anyone that

is open-minded and ready to have a good time.”

Alien Nation has been described as New Zealand’s longest running outdoor dance party, which presents three nights of the freshest underground electronic audio experience.

A crowd of between 300 and 400 people attended the event held deep in the Wairoa Gorge. Oscar says while the majority of attendees were locals, there were a higher percentage of international visitors this year. “There are the people that will come back year after year but this time it seems to have stepped up a notch.

Over the last few years it certainly has picked up.”

Foster homes needed for dogs The Nelson Ark currently has two dogs up for adoption after they completed a rehabilitative programme with local youth.

The Nelson Ark rescues unwanted and abused dogs and pairs them with young people who are perhaps losing their way, giving the dogs a second chance. The charitable trust works alongside the SPCA and the dog pound with the aim of re-homing dogs after weeks of training.

The two dogs up for adoption are Ellie, a labhuntaway mix, who is approximately 10 months old, and Cefi, a “seriously sweet” three year old terrier-collie mix. Karen Howieson of the Nelson Ark says Cefi would make a great obedience dog and both have had basic training. “They’ve

all done eight weeks of basic training which includes socialisation and obedience. They’re good dogs to adopt because they’d had the training,” she says.

The Nelson Ark moved to Stonehurst Farm last year after previously being based at Richmond Park. It has also started its Doggy Day Care business, which helps fund the Nelson Ark. “As a trust we look at trying to support ourselves.

Grants and our own fundraising are some of the ways, but Doggy Day Care was set up as a way to bring in an income to support our students.”

The Ark has completed two programmes since moving to the new premises and Karen says it has been well received.

Have you noticed how so many things that work have been replaced by things that sound good? Take Salisbury School for example, the government plans to close it down and place the girls in a wrap-around system so that they can live at home and attend mainstream schools. Sounds good, but these girls need to be removed from their environment and given special attention to equip them with the skills they need to become independent members of the community. Mainstream schools don’t have the resources to supply the help they need, and their families simply cannot cope with them so why not keep Salisbury School open? Why change something that works?

Our fruit and vegetables are sent to a distribution centre and then transported throughout the country from there.

Sounds good, but have you noticed that

Waimea College Community Education is offering a wide range of interesting, educational, fun and affordable courses. Why not come along, make use of our facilities and experienced tutors, learn something new and meet like minded people?

Belly dancing is always popular with Greta Tapper. Our four week class is fun whilst working on posture, core strength, flexibil-

fident in the kitchen and enjoy cooking, in his Blokes Cooking courses.

Other new tutors are Sandy Garvey from Christchurch who is taking the Microsoft Excel course and Carolina Kerridge from the UK who will explore the Art of Storytelling.

We have two sponsors (always looking for more!) who are kindly offering their ser-

ity and coordinated movements.

We are very pleased to have Allan AddisonSaipe join us as one of our cooking tutors this year. Many of you will know him from his time as chef and the original owner of The Grape Escape. Allan is going to focus on the men, encouraging them to be con-

vices to the college. Ian Read from Digisafe is tutoring two computer classes Know Your Computer and Safe Online Buying and Selling and Hayden Diskin from Route 6 Automotive will be taking a Basic Car Maintenance course just for women.

Tennis reps lose cup Nelson lost the Blair Cup to arch-rivals Marlborough despite home-court advantage over the weekend. The annual Blair Cup fixture – for 18 under representative players – took place at Tasman Tennis Club in Richmond on Sunday with the visitors just too strong, winning the fixture and reclaiming the cup, 11-5.

Doubles took place first up with the top boy’s combination of Henry Neas and Elliot Le Petit having a tight tussle with Andrew Forgesson and Charlie Mercer but took out the match in the super tiebreak third set. The second combination of Ben Petley and Ben Hazlett struggled against the consistent combination of Lee Harborne and Mitchell Smith being defeated 2-6,

2-6. In the girls the doubles match of the day was the top pairing of Laura Roberts and Georgia Low who narrowly lost the first set to Lily O’Fagan and Sarah Maxwell.

They fought back playing aggressive top tennis and won the second set 6-3.

The match tie-break third set Nelson had a narrow lead and a match point at 9-8, however a couple of unforced errors on the final few points gave Marlborough the match 11-9 in the tie-break. The Golden Bay pairing of Francess Clark and Amy Hurst put up a great fight in the second set but lost their match 0-6, 6-7. Henry had a battle in his singles beating Andrew 6-3, 5-7, 6-2 whilst second player Elliot struggled to handle Lee’s ability to

slow the ball down and frustated him with his consistency. Lee won 2-6, 2-6.

Ben put up a good battle in the first set against Mitchell but lost the match 5-7, 2-6. The youngest boy in the team Ben Hazlett was defeated by Charlie Mercer 2-6, 2-6.

In the girls Marlborough’s top player Lily O’Fagan was too strong for Roberts winning 2-6, 2-6. Georgia playing number two took out the first set 6-2 against Abby Hogg. However, Abby fought back to win the next two sets 3-6, 1-6. Francess lost to Kate Rawcliffe 1-6, 1-6 and Amy lost to Kate Roughan 3-6, 3-6.

Nelson won two of the mixed doubles but it wasn’t enough to overcome the deficit from the singles matches.

Tigers comeback to make top three The Nelson Tigers have clawed back into third place at the ENZED Superstock Teams Champs after a second round loss

saw the side fall out of title contention.

But team manager Daryl Peterson believes the second night performance, which saw the Tigers go unbeaten, highlighted by a third-fourth playoff win against tier one Baypark Busters, shows that on its day, the Tigers can beat anyone.

And it is that confidence that the team will need come March when the Tigers head to Auckland for the second major teams race of

Urinary Tract Infections Cystitis or Bladder Infections

Did you know that in certain uncomplicated cases of Urinary Tract Infections accredited pharmacists can now supply an antibiotic, Trimethoprim, over the counter and without a prescription?

Urinary Tract Infections (UTI’s) occur when bacteria infect your bladder and urinary tract and cause inflammation (swelling, often with irritation) of the lining.

UTI’s can be painful and in some cases can keep coming back. Signs and symptoms can include burning and stinging when passing urine, needing to pass urine more often, fever, feeling unwell, chills, vomiting, passing only small amounts of urine at a time, pain in the lower stomach or lower back, discoloured, smelly or cloudy urine and blood in the urine. Untreated infections can spread to your kidneys and this can be serious.

Talk to Andrew about whether he can supply Trimethoprim without a prescription. In complicated cases and if you have any adverse symptoms he will recommend you see your GP first.

Top trials event back at 88 Valley The highly successful two-day NZ Ihatove Adventure Trial kicks off in Wakefield this Saturday, attracting some of the top moto-trials riders from around the country.

The Adventure Trial caters for riders of all abilities, riding both modern and classic bikes, following a trail/ trial format which tests their skills while having fun with a group of like-minded participants.

Magazines in England, Japan and Europe have profiled this event highlighting some of what the Nelson and Tasman have to offer, says organiser Stephen Oliver.

“Riders attend to enjoy some of our beautiful scenery and take part in one of the friendliest motorcycle events available.”

The inaugural NZ Ihatove Adventure Trial, which is

run by the Oliver family of Nelson’s own NonStop Adventure NZ Ltd, was staged in 2010 and it is held annually during the third weekend of February. The Oliver brothers are well known for their Goldpine Team Xtreme display riding at local A&P shows, the trolley derby and the Nelson Santa Parade and the Ihatove is supported by Tasman District Council. tephen says best spectator viewing will be between 12.30-2.30pm on Saturday and Sunday. The event will be signposted from Wakefield’s Eighty Eight Valley turn off and as this event is held on private property there are no pets allowed and no food or drink sales available.

Details are available at: www.nonstopadventure.co.nz/ Local trials rider Paul Dowell makes his way over some rocks newzealandihatovetrials.php ahead of this weekend’s NZ Ihatove Adventure Trial.

Track meet doubles as national championship Jacob Priddy of Hamilton. Rapidly improving Jeff Lautenslager of Nelson also could make a bid for the title. Mike and Jeff ’s teammates’ Thomas Andersen, Josh Barry, Allister Meffan, Sam Mackay-Wright, and Hugo Lawrence also will be in the hunt for medals and personal bests.

Preceding the championship races will be some strong performers in the Harold Nelson Classic. Two-time New Zealand 400m champion Alex Jordan is waiting for a doctor’s clearance to compete. Alex was admitted to the hospital the morning after an intense 4 x 330m relay leg in Christchurch.

The Harold Nelson Classic starts at 5pm. The entry fee for competitors is $3 and they can sign up at the gate. Admission for spectators is free. For meet queries, contact the National Academy of Distance Running office at 923-2321.

New Year’s resolutions ... sick of all work and no play? Get more out of life by learning something new and having fun with other motivated adults.

Become more creative, innovative and productive with a Nayland Community Education course. Check out the programme of night classes and weekend workshops open for enrolment now.

If you love food or you’re tired of their same old recipes, you will love the taste of Chef Luke Macann’s cooking series.

After nine years as head chef at the Boat Shed, owning his own restaurant and experiencing the food world in the UK and US, Luke has returned to help you transform summer vegetables and herbs into mouth-watering yet simple dishes for your table.

There are so many ways to get creative through Nayland College Community Education, with kitchen design, bead jewellery, creative acrylics, printmaking and mosaic courses on offer. Learn to sew or revamp pre loved clothing in weekend creative dressmaking workshops with well known tailoress and textile artist Margy Meys or discover how to get good fitting trousers and skirts the easy way with Larisse Hall.

If you feel like you need a lift and it’s

time for a change, revive your hairstyle, makeup or wardrobe with a ‘make me over’ class alongside Shannan Clarke.

Learning about colour and style to suit body shapes, lifestyle and personality will leave you feeling confident in whatever you wear.

Why not make it a goal to learn one of our official languages? Or turn over a new leaf to become a confident communicator? Learn NZ Sign Language, join an introductory course in Maori language and culture, or discover the art of networking, rapport and presentation skills with Steve Smith, a recognised communication skills trainer. If you find you are increasingly communicating by computer, the “make the most of your Mac” course may appeal. There are so many options available to challenge yourself and learn a new skill. If February is too busy check out the variety of different courses starting in March, including boating education, cheesemaking, family trusts, wills, powers of attorney, hand and foot massage, picture framing, printmaking, upholstery or home preserving.
