Tasman in level 2, testing ramps up Matt McCrorie & Charles Anderson As the country shifted into Alert Level 2, Covid-19 testing has ramped up in Tasman in the last week since the community outbreak in Auckland. Prime Minis-

ter Jacinda Ardern announced on Tuesday last week that the country would be moving to alert level 2 while the Auckland supercity moved into level 3, with Ardern extending the settings until August 26. Between August 13-17, 1426

Covid tests were undertaken across Nelson and Tasman, with 995 tests carried out in Nelson, and 431 across Tasman. So far, no cases of Covid-19 have been recorded in the Nelson Tasman region since the Auckland outbreak.

The Level 2 announcement came as a relief for hospitality and retail businesses in the region, with Sprig and Fern Richmond owner Tracy Banner saying the business is feeling ‘extremely positive.’ “Everybody had their fingers and toes crossed that we wouldn’t be

moving into further restrictions,” she says. Tracy says that while Level 2 takes a lot more work due to customers being seated and maintaining single service, it still leaves them in a good position.

Pak’nSave workers lobby for a fair deal Matt McCrorie Reporter

matt@waimeaweekly.co.nz

A group of Richmond Pak’nSave employees are lobbying for a living wage and more sick leave after working

through alert level 4 and 3 lockdowns as essential workers. Pak’nSave employee and union delegate Jenny Wells has worked at the Richmond supermarket for nearly 20 years. “In the time I’ve worked at Pak’nSave

there have been times that I’ve had to go and get a food grant when my children were at home, because the wages just weren’t enough to live on.” Jenny and other union members from Pak’nSave are seeking a collective agreement, to get a payrate of the liv-

ing wage, recognition for long service, and more than 5 sick days a year. Last year, Countdown supermarkets across the country agreed to pay employees who have spent more than 12

I worked for my father after school doing carpentry, which was his business. There was no monetary payment, bu you got paid in other ways though.

I was a waitress at a Nelson restaurant and got paid the minimum wage about $9. I was at boarding school at the time and got the job mainly to buy some yummy food.

My work was at home looking after my 6 brothers and sisters, I was the eldest and it was expected that that was my job. There wasn’t any pay. I didn’t even get pocket money.

I delivered pamphlets – hard work on the Port Hills. I got paid $2.50 a round. If you had more than one thing to deliver you got more, but it meant more weight to lug around.

Lobbying for a fair deal fRom PAGE 1 months working for the company a living wage, meaning that around 15,000 employees will see their pay jump from $18.90 per hour to $21.15 an hour. With the increase coming into effect for Countdown employees next month, Jenny and her fellow workers have been lobbying for a living wage, but their struggle isn’t new. It has been a long fight. When they first started lobbying in 2015, they were told that the deal they were getting was industry standard. “Every few months we had a meeting to see if anybody has changed their stance, and they never have,” Jenny says. “When the government

changed, we got some things we wanted, like having payscales in your contract.” “We just can’t get a decision out of a meeting because the owner has stopped showing up, he just sends delegates,” says Jenny. “People are frustrated because the owner isn’t even taking enough interest in these concerns to bother showing up, even though he is the decision maker,” says FIRST Union organiser Ross Lampert. Pam Talbot says that supermarket workers have been on the front lines throughout the Covid-19 pandemic. “People get right up close to you, and it’s not entirely safe.” “If Covid comes to our community, we feel that we are going to get it as essential

workers,” says Jenny. Jenny and her fellow workers feel that essential workers deserve essential pay. “You kept hearing in lockdown ‘If you go out you’re going to get sick,’ but we had to go out to work, and it was really uncomfortable hearing that message and knowing that you had to go out,” Jenny says. Bargaining is currently ongoing, and employees are waiting for an offer from their employer, which they expect sometime this week. “We just want to be acknowledged as people, and we want to earn enough to support our families,” Jenny says. Pak’nSave Richmond management was contacted for comment but none was received before publishing.

Car crash delays traffic

Several car crashes across multiple days caused headaches for Richmond commuters last week. A three-car crash caused delays for commuters in Richmond on Thursday last week. A police spokesperson says that a three-car crash on the Richmond Deviation happened just after 7:30 am on Thursday, 13th August. The southbound lane was blocked, with traffic management in place. St John spokesman Gerard Campbell says that one person was taken to Nelson Hospital with moderate injuries. Another crash caused traffic delays in Richmond the next day. A collision took place on Friday morning last week, with a three ve-

hicle collision happening on Lower Queen Street in Richmond. Two people were treated for minor injuries, but did not need to be taken to hospital. A police spokesperson says that police were notified at 6:45am of a crash between Stratford Street and Berryfield Drive.

Brightwater speed limit change

Following public consultation carried out last year, the speed limit on Ellis Street, Brightwater, is being lowered from 50 km/h to 40 km/h. This applies to the section of Ellis Street from Lightband Road (SH6) through to Lord Rutherford Road. This change comes as an effort to try and make the street safer, as Ellis Street is undergoing upgrades to make the centre of Brightwater more pedestrian-friendly. New speed limit signage will be in place from 28 August to remind everyone of the change.

New app connects you to council Matt McCrorie A new app is helping the Tasman District Council communicate with residents across the region. The free app ‘Antenno’ is used by councils across the country, to send residents alerts and notifications about their region. Suzanne Westley, customer service manager at the Tasman District Council, is excited about the app. “I find it really exciting that we can do things in a different way,” she says. “We can let people know when the water is off, when we’ve had a pipe burst, and around consultation. We can send out a range of things.” “It gives us another tool for sending out instant messaging to people around things that matter to them in their environment.” While users will receive information from the council, the app also works both ways. “People can send us a post if they’ve seen a pothole or something like that, they can attach a photo of it so we can follow it up,” she says. “It’s fantastic. If someone sees something in their world that they think needs to be fixed, they can send it in and we can deal with it quickly.” Suzanne stresses that the app is not for emergencies.

Member of Parliament for Nelson, Nick Smith has been working with local residents to petition for a school to be added to the Berryfields housing development underway in Richmond West. “The site has been identified and we have been in the process of nailing it down,” says Nick. A 3 hectare block has been put aside specifically for the use of a school but is waiting on confirmation from the Ministry of Education that a school is required. While the developers await the decision a deadline is looming and, if not met, the space will no longer be available for a school, says Nick. The Ministry of Education held a public meeting in Brightwater last Tuesday and another was to be held last Thursday but had to be postponed due to Covid-19 Level 2 restrictions. The Ministry is considering other options as part of their Waimea Schooling Network Future Development Strategy; growing existing schools or relocating Ranzau School to the proposed Berryfields site. Another option being raised is that some primary schools like Appleby, Brightwater, Hope and Wakefield keep their pupils until Year 8, to take pressure off Waimea Intermediate.

He has also been working with the local residents at Berryfields as the Ministry’s decision will have a big impact on them and their children who would love to be able to ride their bikes or walk to school.

Nelson Matters It is disappointing that Covid has been allowed to re-establish in New Zealand. We return to costly disruptions to our daily lives with lockdown returning to Auckland. Thankfully Nelson has no new cases. We need to work together to keep it that way. I urge all Nelsonians to heed the health advice. We all need to be extra cautious about not going to work or school if we have any symptoms. We should get tested if advised to do so (my wife was tested last week after a light cough). We should be washing our hands more regularly than normal. We should practice social distancing or wear masks

when not practical. We should all be using the Covid app to assist contact tracing. We need to be upfront that the greatest risks for Covid is to our seniors and we need to take particular care around our aged care facilities. If any older people or others with health conditions wish to isolate and need assistance with shopping, please get in touch with my office. I am also available to help any families or business’s facing extraordinary circumstances from the latest Covid restrictions. I have situations where we have families unable to see dying relatives in Auckland, funerals disrupted and Nelsonians urgent

health care plans dashed. Please get in touch as I can often find solutions. It is clear the Government’s border controls have been sloppy. This is unforgiveable given the sacrifice New Zealanders made in April and May to eradicate Covid. Government Ministers said in May that everyone entering New Zealand would be tested. It was revealed in June that 70% were not, meaning hundreds left quarantine without being Covid tested. Ministers also assured us that all staff working on the border and in quarantine facilities were being regularly tested. This was always our greatest risk and where

dents have signed a petition supporting the school. For the wider community, it will remove some traffic congestion from the Queen Street/Gladstone Road intersection with less children having to ride, or mums to drive, across the busy State Highway. Other benefits stated by Nick include assisting with Nelson’s housing pressures. “My experience when I was Housing Minister was that once a school is built in a development, the houses sell much more quickly,” says

Nick. He refers to the Hobsonville Primary School in Auckland which sits within a growing higher density living development. At the start homes were taking up to six months to sell. Post school, houses were being sold up to 12 months ahead and the development now has 2000 homes as of May 2020. “I am open to the new primary school being for years 1- 6 or 1-8, but most of all I want the Ministry to get on and secure the site,” says Nick.

Melbourne failed. It is scandalous that most (63%) of these 6,000 staff have not been tested. Professor Gorman of Auckland University says this error “beggars belief ”. Professor Baker from Otago University says this is most probably how the most recent outbreak started. These recent border control failings repeat the errors that compounded the first wave of Covid. I was inundated with calls in February from returning Nelsonians concerned that our borders were so lax compared to other countries. It was also an error then to have allowed tourists to continue to enter New Zealand on the basis they would

self-isolate. I urge people to be cautious of conspiratorial theories on social media. I take my lead from scientists and health professionals. I ask the Government that they be more open – less spin and more facts. The duty of other parties including National is to be supportive when the Government is acting in the national interest but to be constructive critics where systems are failing. Every country is being sorely tested by this virus. New Zealand has a huge advantage as the most geographically isolated country in the world. We must stop squandering this with sloppy border controls. Advt.

Why we are voting against the Cannabis Legalisation and Control Bill We have been helping families for many years and cry when we see children, mums and dads of all ages struggling with the pain of rejection, bullying and many other hurts, who turn to alcohol and cannabis to fix their problems. 1. When we see children destroy their brain cells to hide the pain in the family.

Wine and food festival postponed Matt McCrorie Nelson’s Wine and Food festival has officially been cancelled for 2021. Organisers announced last week that the festival, originally planned for February 2021, will not be going ahead. The event is currently being rescheduled for February 2022. Organiser Cynthia Martin says that it was not practical for the festival to go ahead next year. “Given the economic downturn, it was clear to us that it was not economically feasible

to host [the festival] at the scale and standard to which we have built this event.” Co-organiser Diana Wilkins says that while she’s disappointed, cancelling the event was the correct thing to do. “It came down to the fact that we need support for sponsors and those companies are feeling the pressure, and a couple of them weren’t able to help out this time,” she says. “We didn’t want to put stress or pressure on people at this time.” Diana says the call was made

early last week, and the events since then have proven how uncertain the future is. “I feel that we have made the right call,” she says. This isn’t the first time that the event has faced uncertainty. Drought and fire risk prevented the festival from going ahead in 2019, following the Pigeon Valley forest fires. “We’ll be working hard for the following year, we want to put together a big, fantastic 2022 event. We’ve already booked the showgrounds, and we will start work next year,” she says.

2. When we see a 14 year old regularly smoking dope and becoming one by 18 and then onto permanent Winz support. 3. When we see a grown man addicted, showing signs of paranoia and other anti-social behaviours. Its easy enough now to get dope but to make it easier is crazy. You may say that it’s not that bad but between alcohol and dope they are destroying the core of our culture and society. I’ve been there, done that and it nearly destroyed my life, so let’s make sure dope doesn’t destroy more lives. Only the Lord Jesus can really heal our pain. Des Fielding

Waimea dam culvert finished Matt McCrorie Reporter

matt@waimeaweekly.co.nz

The Waimea Community Dam hit a significant milestone last week, with the blessing of the culvert taking place on Friday. Waimea Water Board members and staff, Tasman mayor Tim King, Nelson MP Nick Smith and Labour candidate for Nelson Rachel Boyack attended a scaled-down ceremony, with the Waimea Community Dam diversion culvert blessed by Ngāti Koata, along with representatives from contractors and dam engineers. A karakia, led by Te Waari Carkeek (Ngāti Koata), celebrated the cycle of the seasons, as well as emphasising the safety of the site and those who work there. After the blessing, Melanie McGregor (Ngāti Koata) led the visitors in a waiata. After the blessing, the culvert was opened, allowing water from the river to flow through. Waimea Water Limited chair David Wright says it was a momentous day in the construction of the dam. “In August last year we held a ground-breaking ceremony

A year on, almost to the day, we recognise the work done so far and mark the significant completion of the diversion culvert,” he says. Waimea Water Limited CEO Mike Scott says that the completion of the culvert is vital to the construction of the dam going forward. “The 165-metre-long diversion culvert is key infrastructure for

the project, as it allows the river to be diverted to create the dry construction site for the reinforced dam,” Mike says. Now that the culvert is complete,

work is able to begin on the dam itself. “We are at this point in construction after a massive amount of energy and work,” says Mike.

Tasman mayor Tim King says that it’s great to reach such a major milestone on the project. “It’s a great milestone for the project, and it’s good to get that major step completed ,” he says. Tim says that the blessing on Friday, despite being a scaled-down version of the planned event, was a good opportunity to congratulate the contractors on the work done so far, as well as the safety record on the project so far. “To get this far through the project with such a good health and safety record is fantastic,” he says. Tim says that while it has been frustrating to see the delays, he was pleased to see the progress made. “At this stage things are looking pretty good, obviously we have the hangover from Covid and the delays and costs from that,” Tim says. The next stage of construction will see two coffer dams built to divert the river into the completed culvert, enabling construction of the larger, reinforced rockfill embankment. A starter dam and lower spillway bridge will also be constructed, the revised spillway continued, and the plinth completed. Works are due for completion in April 2022.

New members hold first ‘diverse’ exhibition

Five new and very diverse members of the Nelson Suter Art Society have banded together for their first exhibition. “I don’t think it’s often that you’d find an exhibition of five completely different types of art thrown together,” says Richmond-based marine artist Paul Deacon. “This is our first opportunity as newbies to put our work out for everybody to see.” ‘Five Artists Four Walls’ kicked off at the Suter’s McKee Gallery on Monday, with work ranging from marine art, landscape pastels and photography to unique fine-crafted wood displays. “The wonderful thing about the exhibition is the diversity,” says Debra

Cole, who will be showing her series of black and white photos. “Each of us have a very different modality that we use. We’re quite a mixed group of artists and I think that makes it interesting.” Other exhibiting members include Tasman-based pastel artist Karen Joost, woodwork craftsman Jonathan Truslove and Anna Pickersgill-Brown, who works in a variety of mediums. Debra says one of the “wonderful” things about the society is it gives individuals without a background in art an opportunity to apply as artist members. “It gives us a chance to exhibit, which is wonderful.” ‘Five Artists Four Walls’ runs from 10 - 30 August at the Suter’s McKee Gallery.

When myself and a friend attended the Public Party/ Advance NZ meeting in Nelson as self-motivated, 15 year old student journalists, we only wanted to jokingly interview the party leader, Billy Te Kahika. But just minutes into Te Kahika’s carefully crafted Covid conspiracy, he had the enthusiastic audience who cheered in support following every second sentence. “If they lock us down again before the election, we need to get out there and protest!” Billy said, as 300+ Nelsonians erupted into applause. As we listened, the conspiracy theories begun to feel less comedic and more terrifying, and we knew, should there be another lockdown, the Public Party and their supporters would be hitting the streets. Over a period of two hours, Billy Te Kahika explained a complicated and interconnected theory that claims Covid-19 is a global ploy to enslave and subjugate humanity. To a lot of us, this is all quite clearly ridiculous. As an organiser of School Strike for Climate, I am a huge advocate for freedom of peaceful protest/expression. Billy Te Kahika makes it clear that they

want to protest peacefully, but is this what we have seen overseas? No. Are conspiracy-fuelled anti-lockdown protests dangerous to the community? Yes New Zealand is not exempt from the selfish attitude of misinformed protestors we have seen overseas. What Billy Te Kahika is advocating is dangerous. People’s lives are on the line. Like us all, Billy Te Kahika wants to see kiwis return to a normal way of life, but protesting against lockdown does nothing but prolong our wait. However this viral chain of misinformation is already spreading. Last week Gerry Brownlee stood up in front of media and implied that the lockdown was concealed and planned by the government days in advance. As a country, we must take a strong stance against this dangerous misinformation, and give it no oxygen. From our experience with the Public Party’s outspoken crowd, we cannot stress the huge threat that they bring to a Covid recovery. They are motivated and indoctrinated, and ready to hit the streets. -Lennox Crowe, 15

Festival cancelled, performance now online Jacqui Rawson Students from Wakefield School have spent 2020 writing, producing, and performing a play about the impact of the Pigeon Valley fire on the school and were due to perform it again, but this time at the Nelson Fringe Festival. However, due to the Nelson Fringe Festival going onine, this is the second time Covid-19 has impacted the students’ endeavours. But it didn’t stop them earlier in the year and due to last-minute changes by the Fringe Festival in response to the latest Covid restrictions, it’s not stopping them now. “We’re lucky because the students already have a recording of one of their performances from July,” says Wakefield School principal, Peter Verstappen.

The students will be losing the experience of rubbing shoulders with other professional shows from around New Zealand at a festival that shares a bigger live audience than what they’ve experienced at school. But the play and the message they wanted to get across about the Pigeon Valley fire is still going to be told via their recording being provided by the Nelson Fringe Festival online. In February 2019 the Wakefield village, along with the school, was evacuated due to a series of forest fires that were

collectively known as the Pigeon Valley forest fire. The school was relocated to the Hope Community Church for a week until the fires were under control. The name of the play is ‘Fireflight’ and retells the experience of the fire and evacuation of the students. They wrote and have performed it with direction from professional theatre producers and writers, Lisa and Dan Allan. Lisa and Dan at first helped a small writing team of students weave their experience

of the fire into an imaginative tale, with dragons, fairies and a talking horse. They have continued to spend time at the school throughout the year, assisting the group of about 20 actors and musicians. Teachers and other children have also designed and made amazing props, so together the whole school have brought the script to life. To catch the Wakefield School student’s performance, the online festival will run from the 21st - 25th of August 2020 and tickets are available at Eventfinda.

You may have noticed our name change, but our mindset remains the same Well known Nelson Tasman and Marlborough business Nelson Forests was rebranded as OneFortyOne New Zealand in March. The move followed on from OneFortyOne’s purchase of Nelson Forests (including Kaituna Sawmill, near Blenheim) in 2018. “The new branding has galvanised our sense of a single business across Australia and New Zealand, communicating a collective purpose,” says Executive General Manager New Zealand for OneFortyOne, Lees Seymour. “Ultimately, the branding project speaks to the unity of the business, which is very important in the current climate.” New signs have already popped up around the forest estate and at Kaituna Sawmill and the community will see the new branding appearing on vehicles and on personal protective equipment. The team at OneFortyOne New Zealand are enjoying sharing the great story behind the OneFortyOne name, says Lees. “Our business has an integrated model, where we grow, harvest, mill, and market our wood products. This has always been a cornerstone of the way we do business. It’s proven to be important for our ability to respond to COVID-19 in the short term and for the futureproofing of our business recovery post COVID-19. “The new brand represents the wood fibre that is at the heart of everything we do. The new logo is based on the cross-section view of an individual wood fibre from one of our trees. It represents not only the physical shape of fibre that is at the heart of our business, but also the three strands of our purpose: strengthen, integrate, and extend. It has a dynamism to it. It’s energising, fresh and new and it fits with the wood industry we’re in.”

Plastic bottles not the answer Elizabeth Bean I am a regular walker and during lock-down went out most days. The tracks that I frequent were much busier than usual, and I was surprised at the absence of litter. No McDonald’s wrappers, no crisps bags and no plastic drink bottles. Sadly, as we returned to ‘normal,’ the litter has returned. As well as asking why people litter, I ask why do we drink water from single-use bottles?

plastic bottles are thrown away per year. That’s 168 bottles per person. Many plastic drink and milk bottles that could potentially be recycled go straight to landfill. And if the ones I see aren’t picked up, they will likely contribute to plastic pollution in our oceans. This is all a bit depressing – I really can’t believe that my family of four could be responsible for throwing away 672 plastic bottles in the past 12 months. And if we aren’t throwing away our share, then someone must be doing this for us. I am understandably excited to see RefillNZ stickers appearing on the windows of local cafés, which mean they provide free water on tap.

In 2018, Kiwis spent $92 million on buying water in supermarkets. The developing world is crying out for a safe and affordable water supply. In New Zealand, all we have

to do is turn on a tap – but we don’t. Instead, we head down to the supermarket or dairy, grab a plastic bottle out of the fridge and pay for the privilege. Why do we do this? A study by Consumer NZ in 2018 found no evidence that the quality of bottled water is better. Are we seduced by bottle companies like Pure Dew whose “Water is Ultra-Distilled, making it 100 times more pure than spring or mineral water?” It costs $1.75 per litre at Countdown and is remarkably similar to tap water, apart from the unnecessary plastic bottle that it comes in. Reticulated domestic water in Tasman costs 0.0022c per litre and in Nelson 0.0021c per litre. Please make my walks pleasant again. If you want water on the go, get a reusable bottle and fill it from a tap – your own, or a café – or a public drinking foundation. If you like cold water, keep it in the fridge and use an insulated bottle. This has got to be one of the simplest steps to helping save this precious planet - and your bank balance.

Spooners Range – The man behind the name John Swinton Spooner was born in December 1815 in Warwickshire, England. John and his wife Julia set sail on the 1st of October 1942, arriving in Nelson on the 5th of February 1843. The only other cabin passenger was the ship’s surgeon. John’s profession was listed as ‘Gentleman’ and he was contracted for two years by the New Zealand Company as a surveyor. In his role as superintendent of a road gang working in the the Wai-iti Valley, John was given the task of overseeing the making of a dray road from Waimea South through to Tophouse. There was much resentment among the workers owing to amalgamation. This led to the abandonment of the scheme. John then turned to surveying a road along what is now known as Spooners Range, the hill separating the

Spooners Range was named for John Swinton Spooner. Photo: Supplied. Wai-iti and Motueka Valleys. In 1843, John was commissioned to design and build Fort Arthur (named after Captain Arthur Wakefield) on Church Hill in Nelson. After fresh alarm in September about the possibility of Maori hostilities, the fort was completed. It covered more than an acre of ground and took the form of an oblong hexagon with bastions at each angle. It had a drawbridge, an inner trench and

8-foot stockade with towers and loopholes for muskets and 6 cannon. The church and survey office were located within the stockade. Later that year, on the 8th of November, John joined Charles Heaphy on an exploration trip to the south. They were looking for a pass through the hills to the southwest, which would allow settlers to access a purported great plain in the interior. They had been told of its existence

by local Maori. Over a period of three weeks they tramped via Lake Rotoiti and followed what is now known as the Buller River, westwards. They turned back after reaching an area known as the Devil’s Grip where they climbed a mountain and were able to see the river winding away to the southwest bounded by rugged mountains. They decided it was unnecessary to proceed further as they could see no sign of a great plain

ahead and were almost out of provisions. He and Julia had their residence in Manuka Street, Nelson. During November 1844, John and his wife, and possibly an infant daughter, departed Nelson, setting sail on the Star of China heading for Sydney, the first port of call on their journey home to England. John died on 3rd of March 1884 at the Old Vicarage, Bridgnorth, in Shropshire, England.

Book a ‘Career Conversation’ via nmit.ac.nz/career-conversation today to find out more. Learn. Earn. Anywhere. Established in 1991, The New Zealand Institute of Business Studies is recognised as a leader in the field of distance learning, offering practical courses in proofreading, life coaching, fiction writing, journalism, travel writing and photography. NZIBS trains people to earn an income while working flexible hours from home and pursuing their passion. It doesn’t matter where you live, or how old you are – their graduates range in age from 18 to 85!

The Institute was founded by Brian Morris, who now resides in Picton. NZBIS started with just three courses, with content sourced from Australia, but he soon ‘kiwi-ised’ it, introducing authors such as Katherine Mansfield, Frank Sargeson and journalist Terry Mclean. In the early days, before the internet, Brian and Carol Morris relied heavily on NZ Post for communication because their students were geographically spread throughout New Zealand and worldwide. Then in the late 1990s, the multicaller facility ‘NZIBS Telephone Assembly’ was created, and as technology evolved, this was eventually replaced by webinars, Facebook, blogging, ‘Chat to Your Tutor Day’, Skype, emails and student forums. Maintaining human contact was always the objective, only the technology changed. Today, the institute continues to flourish under the leadership of principal Dr Liza Pujji. A Doctor of Philosophy (PhD), Liza has vast experience in the academic, engineering and business sectors. “We strongly believe that if you follow your passion and do what you love, you’ll never work another day in your life,” says Liza. NZIBS has an impressive line-up of tutors too, including Janice Marriott, Ian Jones, Dick Ward, Phil Linklater, Tina Shaw, Val Gyde, Jill Malcolm, Chas Foxall and Atholl Robertson. With 15 specialised distance learning courses available at the Institute, why not download a prospectus? Train for a new career at home, and in your own time.

No job losses from Bowaters expected as Honda leaves Jacqui Rawson There’ll be no loss of jobs once the current Honda facility on Elm Street goes through its reconstruction to bring all of Honda’s existing operations together in the one location in Stoke. “Making sure all of the Bowater Motors employees still had jobs was of paramount importance,” says Bowater Motors chief executive, Chris Bowater. With the local Honda dealership having been part of the Bowater Motor Group for over 47 years, the decision by Honda New Zealand to consolidate their operations has a direct impact on the group, including the closing of Bowater Honda’s dealership doors in October. “While I’m personally sad to see Honda leave the Bowater Group after more than 40 years, it has been a privilege to work so closely with the senior Honda NZ team,” says Chris. He adds that ensuring his

award-winning team of Honda salesman still had jobs ‘was a bit of a mission’ to bring to fruition - but was a priority and has been achieved. “All of the Bowater Motors employees will remain in Nelson, with jobs either being offered with Honda or with the Bowater Motor Group,” says Chris. The reconstruction and consolidation to take place at the Elm Street facility in Stoke mean all of Honda’s assembly and fit-out operations in the region will remain, but will be consolidated so that all service and sales are in one place. A part of which is to be a new retail concept store. “This week we have written to each of our customers to let them know that by November all Honda NZ services will move to our Stoke site,” says Honda New Zealand’s managing director, Nobuya Sonoda. Nobuya said staff numbers remained stable at the Nelson site and none of its staff are be-

ing made redundant nor working reduced hours due to this move. “This move is about strengthening our Nelson operation and reflects our commitment to the New Zealand market,” says Nobuya. The New Zealand Motor Corporation acquired the franchise for Honda back in the mid-1970s. And most of the output of cars from the former Nelson Motor Vehicle Assembly Plant on Quarantine Rd in the 1980s were Honda. “Regretfully, after 47 years our partnership with Honda New Zealand will come to an amicable and mutually-agreed end,” says Chris. He adds that even though they will be a leaner organisation going forward, they will actually come through the changes in good shape, more focused and determined than ever to continue to successfully serve the Nelson / Tasman communities for many more years to come.

What happens to our recycling? After watching a video of how the city’s recycling is processed, Sara Hollyman wanted to know more. She takes a look inside the facility to find out exactly what happens to our 1, 2 and 5 plastics, cardboard and cans.

Perhaps like many Nelsonians, once I trundle the yellow-topped bin down the driveway it’s a matter of out of sight, out of mind. But I will soon learn that we all should be much more aware of exactly what goes into it. Smart Environmental national resource recovery manager Yuri Schokking leads me into the Materials Recovery Facility (MRF) on Fittal St, Richmond. The first thing I notice is fifteen conveyors lead in all different directions. TDC team leader waste management David Stephenson tells me that over the past couple of months 12 per cent of everything that comes into the facility leaves as contamination – or waste, a number they would prefer to see below 10 per cent, but he assures me Nelson Tasman residents are actually rather good at recycling. But what does that mean?

Dave tells me that over the Christmas period the pile on the floor will become so big it will take them until February to clear the backlog. The first stop on the journey for our objects is a trommel, which looks like a hugely oversized washing machine drum. It spins all of the objects, weeding out anything smaller than 50mm which can’t be recycled – lids, broken bits of glass and a

wide array of other random, tiny objects - before shaking out any 3D objects less than 250mm, like plastics and cans. A bouncing conveyer then jiggles the flat paper and cardboard to the top and any three-dimensional objects to the bottom. This is why we shouldn’t squash plastic and cans, because this conveyor thinks they are cardboard and they end up in the wrong place. I see a high-heel shoe tumble to the bottom, followed by its

matching pair and then a lone sneaker. With no correct home to go to it will eventually be off to landfill or, if it can be recycled, it will go into the correct line. Fibre objects, which make up 7080 per cent of our recycled goods, whiz past two eagle-eyed workers who manually pull out anything that shouldn’t be there. Plastics and cans are sent through an artificial intelligence computer at an alarming speed. The computer learns what different ob-

jects are. It takes a photo of every single item and selects which cage to send it to. This is the end of the line for the products which then get squished, baled into 200-500kg piles and stacked ready to be sent around the country. Flight Plastics in Wellington buy our type 1 plastics and turn them into things like biscuit packaging, tomato punnets and muffin trays. Comspec in Christchurch take our other plastics and re-process them into plastic trays for use by manufacturers. I have a new-found respect for this team, they really care about what happens to our waste and they want us to care, too. Next time you go to put the pizza box in the recycling bin, don’t do it. Wash the margarine container, don’t squish the milk bottle or the beer can. Be considerate of the hard-working team who sort and find a buyer for our reusable waste, but more importantly be aware of where your waste goes.

WEDNESDAY 19 August 2020

Just a thought... Pastor David Jensen Today I want to talk to you, briefly, about Jesus’s return. The 1st thing I want to mention is that God’s word makes it very clear that Jesus is coming again - to finish what He began: • It teaches us that the chief (but not only) reason why Jesus came the first time - was to die the death we deserved - to save us from our sins. • It teaches us that when He returns, that He will bring salvation in all its fullness, to those who eagerly await His return (Hebrews 9:28). • It also teaches us that the fulness of salvation that Jesus will bring at His return - is much bigger than just our personal salvation! So, the apostle Peter, in Acts 3:21, made clear that the prophets predicted that the Messiah would bring about “the restoration of all things”. Peter made clear that this would take place when Jesus returns! Paul also reminded us that all of God’s creation is groaning under the weight of sin and is eagerly awaiting it’s liberation! (Rom 8) In the book of Revelation, chapters 21 and 22, we see a vivid picture of what this restoration looks

like - and it is awesome!! The 2nd thing I want to mention about Jesus’s return is this - that even though there are many aspects of Jesus’s return that are wonderfully clear, yet there are also some mysteries surrounding His glorious coming. (Deuteronomy 29:29, 1 Cor 13:9). Because of this we need to stand firm in what God has clearly revealed to us about His return and yet avoid things that are unclear in regards to what precedes and what follows Jesus’s return i.e. avoid speculation, conspiracy theories (that sadly abound) and going beyond what is written! The final thing I want to mention about Jesus’s return is that God’s word goads us to live our lives in light of it! The apostle Peter, as he taught about the second coming, encouraged us to think about the kind of lives we ought to be living in light of Jesus’ return. Peter doesn’t leave us in the dark about this, saying“You ought to live holy and godly lives as you look forward to the day of God and speed its coming” 2 Peter 3:11–12 May we be found pure and blameless at His return!

The Tasman housing market boomed last month. Photo: Matt McCrorie.

House sales boom post lockdown The Tasman housing market boomed last month, with it’s highest July sales count since 2003. According to the latest figures from the Real Estate Institute of New Zealand, Nelson, Tasman and the West Coast had the largest increase in annual sales volume throughout the country. Last month in Tasman sales increased by 56 per cent, from 61- 95, while in Nelson house sales went up by 42 per cent – from 85 to 121. This was the most house sales

Wanderers women’s rugby coach Jo Cotton says the four players from her squad who made the Tasman squad for the upcoming Farah Palmer Cup are deserving of their chance. Front rowers Ashley Ulutupu and Alisi Seigafo, lock Gina Healey and outside back Michelle Curry have all made the squad after helping Wanderers to the final of the club competition two weekends ago. Jo says all four of the front rowers will add their own personal touch to the Tasman Squad, and bring drive and energy to their new team.

“The girls who are there have some amazing skills and they all deserve to be there,” she says. Jo says her two front-rowers do their core duties but are also dynamic with ball in hand. “Ashley solidifies our scrum and has a high tackle rate,” Joe says. “She is also great with ball in hand and always looking to pass in the tackle. “Alisi is another good ballrunner. “In one game she made 139m and she breaks a lot of tackles and is hard to bring down. Gina is one of those players who is so versatile that she’ll play anywhere for her team, so she’s been playing 10 for us. “She’s strong at the breakdown

and the clean-out and she’s dynamic. “Michelle is a very good ballrunner. “If you give her a little space, she can really move and break the game open. Jo says that Michelle can move qucikly. “She swerves, she steps and she’s a natural runner. “She also has great line-speed on defence and she gets up and makes the tackles she needs to, too.” Jo says she is keen to keep the group together so they can continue to be competitive next year. Tasman’s Farah Palmer Cup campaign will begin on the 6th of September against Canterbury in Christchurch.

Waimea combined outclassed Jacob Page

Waimea Combined have turned their focus to traditional rivals Marlborough Boys’ College this Saturday after a heavy defeat to Christchurch Boys’ High School in their rugby encounter. Waimea was soundly beaten 62-12 in Murchison, and conceding four tries in the final 10 minutes left them with little to smile about on the scoreboard. Coach James Lash says the

team, while overmatched in many areas, never stopped trying. “They had three or four big ball runners who proved hard to stop,” he says. “We certainly tried and did create some opportunities, but we weren’t able to capitalise on them. You have to take each chance that you get when you play the big teams. Waimea has four winnable games to conclude their campaign starting with Marlbor-

ough at Waimea College on Saturday. They will then travel to Geraldine to take on Roncalli Combined, then welcome Timaru Boys’ High School to the Tasman region before finally hitting the road to face an unpredictable St Thomas of Canterbury. “If we can finish on a high note and win all four, or even three out of four, I feel that’ll be a good way to end what has been a promising season for us.”

Wanderers claim victory over Stags The Wanderers division two side is one win away from a home semi-final in the next fortnight. With most sport postponed again on Saturday, the Taylors Wanderers division two team were the sole representatives for the Brightwater club when hosting the Valley Stags at Centennial Park on Saturday. With the restrictions in place, it was a small but appreciative group of supporters who were entertained by a highly-competitive game between two very even teams. The Blue and Golds started as they had trained all week and dominated possession for the first four minutes, when a foray into the visitors ter-

ritory saw a slick set play move, and good aggressive running by Ethan Johnstone to finally breach the Valley Stags defence to score by the posts. Johnstone had an impressive match both on attack and on defence, displaying a solid defensive prowess and was deservedly awarded Player of the Day. It was right on halftime when a fine lineout drive carried Ron Roberts over for a 12-0 lead. The second period of play continued with the scrum becoming dominant for Wanderers, enabling the backline to run more freely and some good continuity created space on the left-hand side for another try to

Johnstone. No 8 Steve Soper bagged a double, one again from excellent team continuity and the second from close range off another very good scrum. In between those two efforts, left wing Flynn Basalaj had completed a slick blind- side move and the game finished at 38-0. The after-match function, all lockdown protocols in place, had Tanu Malieatoa, a Wanderers’ stalwart who played and coached in many previous contests between the two clubs, awarded the LSD Shield to Bobby Palmer in recognition of the historical, long-standing and traditional grassroots encounters.

Date extended on Water Safety Consultation Alert Level Two restrictions

Submissions are now open until Friday 2 October.

At the time of printing we remain at Alert Level Two as Covid-19 has re-emerged in the community.

We’ve extended the submission period on a proposal to permanently chlorinate the following water supplies: Upper Takaka, Hamama, Motueka, Riwaka / Kaiteriteri and Richmond.

Here’s what you need to know: • Council offices, libraries and community recreation facilities remain open but will be different to usual. Numbers will be limited; physical distancing is required and contact tracing measures are in place. • Rubbish and recycling collections continue as normal. Resource Recovery Centres remain open but with number limits, physical distancing and contact tracing. Please use contactless payment if you can. Please follow the general health advice from central government as we work together in our renewed battle against Covid-19.

As a Council, we’ll be following central government advice and continuing to provide services that comply with the restrictions in place. Let’s all get behind this effort by also following government advice, especially around good hygiene and staying at home if you feel unwell. This has been a wake-up call. We can’t be complacent. We all need to do our part so let’s follow the rules at Level Two and work together to protect our community. We’ve done it before and I know we can do it again. Please follow the government advice and stay informed as the situation evolves. Mayor Tim King

No mixed recycling processed from 14 – 18 September Due to essential maintenance at the recycling processing plant, any mixed recycling (plastic, paper, cardboard, cans) collected in the week of 14 – 18 September, cannot be processed and will have to go to landfill. This will only affect residents with “Week 2” on their wheelie bin. The plant operator, Smart Environmental, needs to replace the chain drive conveyor belt at the processing plant. This belt feeds recycling into the processing equipment and is critical to the plant operation and has been working 52 weeks a year for the last five years so is due for replacement. All glass collected will be recycled as normal. It is processed differently and the conveyor belt replacement doesn’t affect that. We will still collect your wheelie bin if you put it out but the contents will go to landfill, rather than being recycled. If you don’t want that to happen, please hold on to your wheelie bin until your next collection week and put it out again on your usual day in the week starting 28 September. Any recycling dropped off at Resource Recovery Centres during the week of 14 – 18 September will also go to landfill so please drop it off the week before or after if you want to be sure it will be recycled.

A replacement drop in session will be held via Zoom video conferencing on Wednesday 16 September starting at 4.30 pm. The Zoom meeting link will be available on the Council website, tasman.govt.nz – search on 'Water Consultation'. How to have your say:

t Ru

r fo

• Email your submission info@tasman.govt.nz with ‘Water Safety Consultation’ in the subject line. • Head to tasman.govt.nz/feedback to submit your feedback online. • Post your submission to 'Water Safety Consultation', Tasman District Council, 189 Queen Street, Private Bag 4, Richmond 7050.

Apply now for the Community Resilience Fund Phase Two Applications are invited until Friday 4 September for the second funding round supporting play, active recreation and sports organisations who are experiencing financial hardship as a result of Covid-19. In a change from the first round, applicants no longer need to be affiliated to Sport NZ national partners and you can claim assistance for a broader range of costs including operational costs. Sport Tasman is administering the fund locally so get all the details and an application form on their website, sporttasman.org.nz or phone 03 546 7910.

Community planting days Head along to a fun family planting day on the Waimea Inlet. • Sunday 23 August, 9.00 am – 1.00 pm, Bronte Peninsula on Stringer Embayment (access from 76 Bronte Road East, park on Bronte Road). • Sunday 30 August, 9.00 am – 1.00 pm, Research Orchard Road Reserve #2 Please bring gloves, spade and drinking water. Wear solid footwear and clothes suitable for the weather conditions. For more information and future planting day dates, visit the website tet.org.nz or email bandedrail@gmail.com.

With the news that we will remain at Alert Level Two, I urge everyone to play their part to protect the health of our community and help stop the spread.

Mayor’s Message

In light of the current Covid-19 restrictions on gatherings, the public information sessions have been cancelled.

• Wear a face covering if you can.

New speed limit signage will be in place from 28 August to remind everyone of the change.

• Keep track of where you’ve been and who you’ve seen

This change is due to the need to provide safer and consistent speeds for busy school roads and town centre roads. The new speed limit is supported by changes made as part of the current Brightwater town centre upgrade.

• Sneeze and cough into your elbow

This applies to the section of Ellis Street 50m from Lightband Road (SH6) through to 50m prior to Lord Rutherford Road, shown on the map below.

• Wash your hands

You can read the full statement of proposal online at tasman.govt.nz/feedback or see a hard copy at all Tasman District Council and Libraries (Takaka, Murchison, Motueka and Richmond).

As agreed following the public consultation carried out in 2019, the speed limit on Ellis Street Brightwater will change to 40 km/h from the end of August.

• Keep your distance from other people in public

All other Tasman District Council water supplies are already treated with chlorine to ensure the safe supply of drinking water. This is in line with the accepted practice for water treatment around New Zealand and other developed countries around the world.

Brightwater speed limit change – 40km/h applies from 28 August

Ride the new Richmond Bus Loop The new convenient bus service around Richmond is now running Monday to Friday with regular services throughout the day. A reduced timetable runs on Saturdays (no service Sundays or public holidays). It starts and finishes in Queen Street, where you can also connect to the bus services to Stoke and Nelson. The eastern end of the route travels along Washbourn Drive to Chelsea Avenue, on to Hill Street to Champion Road, returning via Salisbury Road and Talbot Street. The western end travels down lower Queen Street, out to Three Brothers Corner, up Bateup Road and back along Wensley Road. The bus is even more convenient with the introduction of the electronic Bee Card. It’s a pre-paid “tag on – tag off” card that makes it cheaper and easier to catch the bus. Your Bee card is free until the end of October and the minimum top up amount is $5. Get yours today from Tasman District and Nelson City Council Service Centres, Nelson, Stoke and Richmond Public Libraries and the bus depot in Bridge Street, Nelson. Get more information on our website, tasman.govt.nz, search on 'bus'.

COUNCIL MEETINGS For now public access to meetings will be via Zoom video conferencing. See tasman.govt.nz/link/meetings-calendar.
