Fears new subdivision ‘rushed’ Jo Kent Reporter

jo@waimeaweekly.co.nz

Some Wakefield residents are concerned that plans to subdivide and rezone land for 350 new homes in the village have been

“rushed through”, without having the necessary infrastructure in place.

The management of water, storm water and wastewater, as well as the logistics of increased traffic flow, were raised by locals at a meeting held last week to discuss

the new subdivision.

Tasman District Council communications and change manager, Chris Choat says council is rezoning an area of land from rural 2 to residential for a new subdivision, to address housing pressures in Wakefield.

The houses will be built as an extension to the 63-lot subdivision currently underway off Pitfure Rd in Wakefield.

Chris says works won’t commence until plans for infrastructure are in place and the meeting was just an early engagement

“Development can’t occur until infrastructure is planned,” Chris says.

Mine are up already. I couldn’t wait this year and the kids are happy.

Usually after the Richmond Santa Parade but this year it’s later, so this weekend.

I don’t need to. Every day is like Christmas for me.

Beginning of December. We get a real tree and go all out.

Fears new Wakefield subdivision ‘rushed’ from PAGE 1 Duane Whiting, agrees that water, wastewater and “a wee bit” of roading infrastructure will be needed for the proposal, for which a “good mix” of section sizes was planned.

An application was previously made by Tasman District Council to the Infrastructure Acceleration Fund (IAF) process in a bid to secure financial support for infrastructure from a $1 billion Government fund.

The Wakefield proposal got through to the second phase of the application process, but it’s still only in the preliminary stages.

However, one resident at the meeting, who wishes to remain unnamed, says the council is running before it can walk.

“Without the infrastructure funding in place, how can they

have given the green light for this large subdivision?”

Others were disappointed that their own applications to subdi-

vide their land had been delayed or rejected for many years, only for the new subdivision to be “rushed through” ahead of the

queue.

“It’s not right that, at great cost to me, I’m still waiting to subdivide land which has been in my fam-

ily for three generations,” another resident said.

Sonja Lamers who is part of community group Focus Wakefield, says they approached the developer themselves as the results from their ‘Homes for Wakefield’ survey gave valuable insight into how residents would like their village developed in the future.

“We talked our findings through with the developer directly and they’ve agreed to earmark seven per cent of the sections for smaller dwellings, so one- or two-bedroom properties,” Sonja says.

With the new rezoning and land use consent, Duane says buyers of the larger sections will have the option of putting more than one dwelling on their property, such as a granny flat or apartment, which would take the hassle away from potential purchasers.

The next public meeting will be held in February 2022.

Farmers protest ‘unworkable regulations’

WEDNESDAY 24 November 2021

from page 1 Hundreds of local farmers, growers and their supporters honked through the Top of the South on Sunday as part of national Groundswell protests.

Groundswell NZ has hosted nationwide protests on Sunday in an effort to reverse what they say are “unworkable regulations” for Kiwi farmers and growers.

According to Groundswell NZ’s website, these regulations surround “freshwater, indigenous biodiversity, climate change and Crown Pastoral Land Reform bill”.

Convoys of utes, trucks, tractors and cars from across the region travelled from Lower Queen St Richmond, along Whakatu Dr and through to the Nelson city centre. A convoy also completely filled the main street through Murchison.

Many vehicles were emblazoned with New Zealand flags and banners reading “no three waters” and “no farming no food no life”.

There were a handful of supporters standing in the rain in central Nelson.

Murchison resident and farm-

$ Tractors on rutherford St on Sunday. Photo: Erin Bradnock. er Sandy Beaumont says she and a friend Amanda Andrews organised the first protest in Murchison.

“We had this massive turnout in town for that one, but this one we thought not everyone would come. When we arrived, there were three times as many people, we could hardly fit in the town centre.”

She says the main concerns that rang out were around Three Waters and the “stealing of land” through Significant Natural Area policy.

“How we have to have our crops and pastures in by a certain date, it’s unworkable here, we have so much rain in Murchison.

“Farmers are just really frus-

trated,” Sandy says.

Local representative for Groundswell NZ Bruce Gordon, a lifelong farmer from Maruia, just south of Murchison, says local farmers are “so stressed” under recent regulations.

On top of regulation, Bruce says farmers are also worried about the transmission of Covid-19 onto the unvaccinated within rural communities.

“This Government and all their regulations, now it’s letting Auckland come down and destroy us,” he says.

Bruce delivered a ute load of local produce to Salvation Army in Nelson as the protest convoy passed. Another was donated to Kai Rescue.

SH6 delays as rockfall stabilised near Murchison Sara Hollyman Editor

sara@topsouthmedia.co.nz

Delays of up to 30 minutes can be expected on SH6 near Murchison from this week as work to stabilise storm damage begins.

Work to stabilise a rockface between the Owen River and Kawatiri Bridges began on Monday and will continue through to Wednesday 22 December.

Travellers can expect delays of up to 30 minutes while the work progresses.

“Scaling and rock removal work is needed after a recent slip in late October, to stabilise the rock face,” says Andrew James, system

manager Waka Kotahi Top of the South.

While the scaling works are taking place, the site will be man-

aged by Stop/Go traffic management with most delays between 10 and 15 minutes. There will also be slightly longer closures up

to 30 minutes.

There will also be slightly longer closures up to 30 minutes. Andrew says they want to return the

highway to two lanes in time for Christmas Traffic.

Work will be under way Monday to Saturday, between the hours of 7am and 6pm. Outside these hours the site will be managed with temporary traffic signals with the single lane and a 30km/ hour speed limit.

Contractors, using helicopters, will be drilling, scaling and removing rocks and installing netting over the rockfall area. The large slip came down in October, blocking part of the highway.

“The aim is to get this site back to two lanes for the summer break with further rockface safety work to take place in the New Year,” says Andrew.

Masked Parade comes to Māpua

Students from Māpua School ran their own Mask Parade on Thursday. Photo: Erin Bradnock.

Last Thursday Māpua School students turned into unicorns, taniwha, mermaids and other magical creatures to wow their peers and the school’s community.

Due to Covid-19 restrictions, parents were welcomed to watch the parade from outside the school’s fence.

Year One teacher The-

resa Shepard, known by “brownie” by her students, says the school usually participates in the Masked Parade every second year but alongisde a raft of Nelson Arts Festival events, this years Masked Carnival had to be cancelled.

Originally the plan was to organise a community parade with other local schools and playcenters

but Alert Level changes made planning too difficult.

Instead of giving in to ‘cancel culture’ of events amid Covid-19, Māpua School took the opportunity to get creative to connect with their community.

“It’s about keeping that relationship between the school and the community alive,” Theresa says.

Lea getting back on her feet Jenny Nicholson Reporter

jennifer@waimeaweekly.co.nz

Lea Wallrab’s day off didn’t end up as planned, and neither did her OE. A ski tour with fellow Rainbow ski instructors at the end of September ended with a trip to the emergency department for the 22-yearold German national. During the tour, Lea’s ski got caught in heavy snow and she fell, twisting her knee.

“It dislocated and then popped back in when I fell down on it,” she says.

After an X-ray, she was told her knee wasn’t broken and sent home with the advice to go to physio or see her GP if she needed further follow up. But Lea knew something wasn’t right. That’s when things got tricky.

She was told she couldn’t have an appointment with a specialist until she had an MRI and that wasn’t possible for about five weeks. Her days revolved around doing the exercises her physio had given her.

She was living in her car which became hard climb-

“The exercises and workout itself I did every day was exhausting enough,” says Lea.

“To live in a car is another challenge on top of that.”

When she finally had an MRI, it showed bruising to

the bone, two tears in the meniscus and a torn ACL. She still couldn’t get an appointment with a specialist until the end of November.

“It was so hard not knowing how bad my knee is.”

Lea says the hardest thing is to be positive every day.

“I know every day of my life is amazing because of the people around me,” she says.

“But it can be a real challenge to find positive things every day.”

Things hit a low when her car broke down.

Stranded in Tāhunanui, she texted anyone she knew for help. A mother of one her ski instructor colleagues picked her up and invited her to stay with them and gave her the use of a car to get to physio appointments.

Next, she finally had a call from ACC which organised for her to fly to Christchurch to see a surgeon last Tuesday. There she was told she would have to wait for surgery as her knee wasn’t ready. The next appointment for surgery would be end of February.

Lea knows there will be a lengthy period of recovery.

NEWS Cyclist dies in Wakefield: A cyclist has died after being hit by a truck in Wakefield. Emergency services were alerted to the truck and cyclist crash on SH6 between Baigent Valley Road and Hoult Valley Road West shortly before 5pm Monday. The road was closed while emergency services were at the scene with diversions in place.

Appleby Fair cancelled: Appleby School has made the decision to cancel their annual Country Fair fundraiser after already postponing twice. Tanya Snowden, fair coordinator, says it was a tough decision to make. “But we will run an online silent auction on TradeMe instead. We tried our best to go ahead and even postponed the date twice but, unfortunately, with restrictions it just became too difficult.”

Garin student named as National Youth MP: Garin College Year 11 student James Ivamy has been appointed as National List MP Maureen Pugh’s 2022 Youth MP. Youth Parliament convenes every three years and James will travel from his Brightwater home to Wellington for a unique opportunity to learn about our democracy, how to influence government decision-making and ways to have a voice heard. Maureen says James’ enthusiasm and interest in politics made him a very strong applicant.

Richmond house fire: A Lowry St home was all but destroyed last Tuesday after a fire started in the kitchen. Five fire appliances battled the blaze, which broke out shortly before 5pm.

Local hero gets national recognition Jo Kent Reporter

Waimea Weekly Locally Owned and Operated

A surprise nomination has put Richmond volunteer Marty Price in the running for the KiwiBank New Zealand Local Hero of the Year Award.

His entry beat thousands of Kiwis across the country to a shortlist of just 100 nominees.

“I received a medal and certificate in the mail, and it took me a few minutes to get my head around it all,” Marty says. “It was totally unexpected, and I’m thrilled.”

To be eligible for this award, nominees must have made, or be making, a significant contribution to their region.

As well as working full-time at Nelson Marlborough Health, Marty is a tireless volunteer for more than a dozen organisations in the region. From working as a first responder for urban search and rescue to offering community mental health assistance and leading the Richmond community patrollers, he’s the man you want around in a crisis.

In fact, it was while volunteering as a patroller that Marty crossed paths with Kai With Love chief executive Abigail Packer, the person

“Marty reached out to me during lockdown and offered to help deliver food parcels for us with his community patrol team. It was a real lifesaver for us.”

She says nominating him was easy because of his great attitude and all the things he does for the region.

“I’m so proud that he made the shortlist, that’s not an easy thing to do. It just goes to show how respected his work in the community is.”

The 100 medallists will be whittled down to 10 semifinalists by a panel of 50

judges and announced midDecember. From there, three finalists will be chosen, and an overall winner selected at a gala dinner on 31 March at the Cordis Hotel, Auckland.

“I can’t believe I’m one of the medallists, it’s an honour,” Marty says.

“Although, I have to say, I’m a little embarrassed by all the attention.”

The region has one other medallist, 16-year-old Sophie Weenink Smith who arranged her first beach cleanup when she was just 13, motivating 200 volunteers to join her.

Sophie is the Under 25 representative for the Nelson Tasman Climate Forum and is a youth ambassador for Kohine Maia, a Sport Tasman initiative to improve girls’ mental health by being active.

She has helped raise thousands of dollars for Giving Aroha to support the homeless community, and during Covid-19 lockdowns organised meal rosters to deliver food to the people living on the streets.

Sophie devotes every spare second of her time to create change.

We want to hear your opinions on what matters to you and your community

Email: sara@topsouthmedia.co.nz I read with interest the two pieces by politicians Maureen Pugh and Damien O’Connor on your Murchison feature in last week’s Waimea Weekly and their messages for the rural community. The difference was stark. Damien’s was congratulatory on how we’ve pulled together despite Covid-19 and he encouraged people to get vaccinated to maintain the momentum.

Maureen Pugh’s piece was very negative. She wrote ‘The management of NZ’s response is in a complete mess and as the number of infections continues to climb thankfully the hospitalisations do not.’ Well, surely if the hospitalisations aren’t rising despite infections rising, isn’t that positive? Isn’t that indicative of how its being relatively well-managed? She also pulls out the racist card in her comment on the Three Waters reform by focussing on the establishment of ‘an entity made up of 6 council-appointed reps and 6 iwi-appointed reps. State sponsored theft at its best.’

Well, wasn’t the Treaty of Waitangi more indicative of state sponsored theft at its best? Colonialism and divide and rule has a lot to answer for globally. And who ended up with the prime assets under colonial rule?? Its obvious that a politician in opposition is going to criticise the Government’s action in order to boost the Opposition’s position. It’s a shame that she can’t project a positive position rather than just make negative comments and include no positive statements except to ask people to air their views – so this is mine!

Jo Leyland Maureen Pugh responds; I appreciate that feedback. My comments were about being realistic and are based on my request for feedback which I receive from my work in Wellington, a recent electorate-wide survey, recent visits to parts of the South Island, and from people talking to me from throughout the huge West CoastTasman Electorate. It wasn’t sugar coated.

Quest to reunite lost medals: I’d love to have my grandad’s medals that were stolen many years ago in Auckland. Donna Theobald I was just given the heads up… try looking on the side of the medals… as they usually have a name there.

Robyn Rusholme Gosh, what an amazing find. Trust they’ll find their way back home. Good luck. Karen Ward NMDHB stands down 110 staff: Yet come 15 December you can travel all over NZ without the jabs, just a negative test. Teena McCoy I wonder how many more quit in the lead up to the mandate. This figure seems to be those that were stood down, so potentially this figure is under reporting. My heart goes out to those affected.

Karen Waine

waimeaweekly and www.topsouthmedia.co.nz Your health is now your wealth. Bridget Davis If we get a rush of cases here, whether they need hospital treatment or not (and a few will no doubt), it will put extra pressure on staff. When we think of frontline workers, it is not only medical workers, but as someone said with some mental health staff having gone now, people will now have lost their counsellor they trusted and confided in. Also, mental health, with all of this is needed for many people long-term. The whole roll-on effect will be noticed in the weeks and months ahead. Let alone how our hospital itself with the resources will cope. Let’s just keep looking after each other individually as much as we can and doing what we can as a community to help where we can. Marie Scherer For a country that’s already massively understaffed for health professionals we now just lost a whole lot more. Bronwyn Eggers

Let’s hope no one misses out proper care because they are understaffed - this is sad. Keri Williams I feel so sorry for the remaining staff, it makes hard work even harder. Also feeling for those that have been stood down - it would be very tough. Sarah Stratford This is an easy fix - have a jab. Italina Sowman Wait wait wait … so, you’re telling me the health workers who saved lives unvaccinated and were the heroes of last year are now being fired this year before Christmas?

Kurt Johnson Well, you should stand down all the police that have not been vaxed. Jas N Kaiarahi If I needed medical help I wouldn’t want to be cared for by unvaccinated staff.

Keeping you up to date with news and events in Brightwater

New art space for Brightwater Jo Kent When Wendy Payne bought her fiancé Ian Richardson a painting, they never thought that just a few months later they’d be opening their own art gallery and exhibiting work from that very same artist.

“I bought Ian a gift by local artist Sally Reynolds and she is now one of the five artists who are part of our new gallery.”

White Space gallery forms the front part of their house, which is in the old post office building on Ellis Street.

“Opening a gallery is a dream we both had,” Ian says. “Wendy’s got an art background and has travelled to galleries all around the world, everywhere from Russia to Italy and most of Europe.”

Wendy says the gallery will showcase talent from the Nelson Tasman region with a view to getting more art-

ists on board as time goes on.

“All the pieces we’ve chosen to display are works that I love.”

She says that the art is available to buy and she hopes that the community will pop along to see what they are passionate about.

When on holiday from Wellington last summer, they fell in love with Nelson and decided this was where they wanted to live.

They bought Everyday Goodness in Stoke and relocated last June.

“We’ve been here 18 months now and recently moved to Brightwater.”

Ian says they run the Stoke shop during the weekdays and open White Space on Fridays and weekends, with a view to private hire for func- Wendy Payne and Ian Richardson have tions in the future. opened White Space gallery. Photo: Jo Kent.

Gerald is refocusing, Richmond not retiring Jenny Nicholson The days of handing out principal’s awards are numbered for Gerald Baldwin.

After about 13 years as principal at Brightwater School, Gerald is leaving.

“I won’t call it retirement,” Gerald says.

“I call it ‘refocusment’.”

He says, at 62 he hopes he still has a third of his life left to enjoy family time, projects, personal fitness and his first grandchild who is due to be born in March. Along with restoring a 1962 mini cooper, he hopes to finish building the house he started in 1985.

Gerald says Brightwater it is a great country school, with very sporty children and very strong connections with

its parents.

Ph 544 “It’s a cool place to 6122 come to work.”

One of his legacies is the cycle track that was built at the back of the school. He sees it as a good place for children who prefer to be alone, because they can connect with others in a social context while also having fun.

For Gerald, it is important that children can still be children in the fast-changing world we live in. He wants to see them grow both academically and holistically to become successful members of society.

“Even outside the Covid situation, the pace of life is a lot quicker for families,” he says.

He says device time has impacted on a lot of other learning opportunities and

LOVE YOUR LAND

LOVE YOUR LAND

has affected the level of literacy of children coming into school.

A major achievement was leading the school to back-to-back five-year EROs. Education Reviews are usually conducted every three years, but the quality of Brightwater School’s education was such that they were given five years between reviews.

A favourite aspect of his job has been handing out principal stickers to children sent to show him their work.

One five-year-old arrived at his office to ask him if he could tell her where she could go to buy her own supply of principal stickers.

Glenda Earle, currently a deputy principal at the school, will take up the role of principal in 2022.

NELSON VINTAGE CAR CLUB CAR RALLY The Nelson Vintage Car Club is delighted it can proceed with its Daffodil Car Rally on Sunday, 5 December to raise funds for cancer. “Because we had to plan the rally under Covid Level Two rules, this year we will be running the event without the inclusion of onsite food stalls and the public display of vehicles,” says co-organiser Ray Robertson.

“Our aim is to drive up the entry numbers, because it’s these kinds of events the Nelson Cancer Society gets their funds from.” Any type of car is welcome – modern or old; it’s a chance for proud car owners to participate in a fun drive with others while raising money for a great cause.

“Previously, we were able to have a car show with more public involve-

ment, and people could wander around the displays and food stalls,” says Ray. “But this time we can’t have the assembly of people, so the aim is to start the clock and send the first vehicles off out the gate.”

The event will kick off at the Nelson Speedway grounds at 10am on Sunday, 5 December.

Participants will enter from the pit entrance on Lansdowne Road and will be marshalled into lanes to take their entry and receive their rally route guides.

Everyone will need to stay in their cars and the event organisers will come around so people can scan the Covid tracer app and fill out an indemnity form.

“This comes with two complimentary raffle tickets, with three major prizes on offer, worth over $1000 each, provided by local businesses.”

There are spot prizes too, and the first 130 entries will receive a complimentary pass to the Nelson Classic Car Museum.

“There are four routes; two

When the cars return to the speedway, there will be no assembly; the vehicles will leave the premises and the winners of the major prizes will be contacted via phone or email.

“Due to Covid, the event has been hit two years in a row, so it’s great to be able to go ahead this year,” says Ray. For more information, phone Rob Thompson on 03 547 5120 or 027 547 1520.

Pirate panto defies Covid cancellations

Mother and daughter share love for art Jenny Nicholson Mother and daughter Cindy Hutton and Charlotte Blythen are both living their girlhood dreams of being full-time artists.

Now, they are opening Cindy’s garden to the public for an exhibition of local art and giving other artists the opportunity to showcase their creativity.

Some years ago, when the garden was part of Henley School’s Garden Trail fundraiser, Cindy had her art displayed throughout the garden.

The positive feedback was part of the inspiration for this month’s exhibition.

There has been a generational influence in their art, with Cindy seeing her grandmother’s art on the walls of their holiday home.

“I dreamed of having my own art on our walls, but I didn’t ever imagine I could be an artist,” she says.

Sixteen years ago Cindy started selling her paintings, starting at a gallery in Akaroa.

For Charlotte, it was her mother who inspired her artistic dreams.

She remembers sitting on a Golden

Bay hill covered in foxgloves watching Cindy capture the scene on a canvas. She says it was the coolest thing and seeing Cindy become an artist opened her eyes to the possibility of a career in the field.

“I couldn’t paint though until about year 11,” Charlotte says. “My dexterity hadn’t caught up with what I was imagining in my head.”

While Cindy favours painting scenes with people superimposed on them,

Charlotte is enjoying still life. Both paint for commission and have had a lot more work come in lately.

“I feel people are more sentimental,” says Cindy. “They are asking us to paint things that mean something to them with people they care about.”

The exhibition will be held from 10am to 4pm on Saturday, 27 November at 77 Champion Road and will feature paintings, pottery, and coloured glass art. A coffee cart will be on site.

Covid-19 may have put the brakes on many shows in the last six months, but it hasn’t stopped Nelson Repertory Theatre from bringing some pre-Christmas pantomime fun to Nelson.

Treasure Island is coming to the Red Door Theatre, located at Nelson Musical Theatre, from 1 - 5 December.

Director Hugh Neill says he was “determined” for the show to go on under Alert Level 2 restrictions and hopes it will offer some much-needed cheer in an uncertain time.

“I found a script and thought it would be fun to do. It has all the very best elements of traditional pantomime, lots of slapstick, there’s a custard pie fight, and even a water fight amongst the audience.

“There will be various wellknown songs throughout,” he says.

The swashbuckling pirate adventure has a cast of 22 ranging from teenagers to

those in their 60s.

Covid-19 restrictions will mean that the audience for each show will be limited to 52 people.

“Our usual home, the Theatre Royal, wasn’t available, but we have been determined to keep going despite the restrictions. People, of course, will need to arrive masked and scan in,” says Hugh.

The audience will sit at tables of four, where they can enjoy drinks and platters.

Hugh says the Friday and Saturday night sessions have sold out already, but they have just added a matinee show for Sunday, 5 December at 2pm.

“It’s a fun show and a great opportunity for people to see some live theatre leading up to Christmas.”

Hugh would like to thank Smugglers Pub and Cafe for their help with the production.

Treasure Island is on from 1-5 December, at Nelson Musical Theatre on Atawhai Dr. Tickets available from www. iticket.co.nz/events/2021/ dec/treasure-island

Nicole achieves top guiding award Jenny Nicholson Reporter

jennifer@waimeaweekly.co.nz

Nicole Delaney’s hard work has been rewarded with her achieving the highest possible award in guiding.

In the past, the prestigious Queen’s Guide Award has been presented by the Governor General, but ranger leader Lisa Kerr says that Covid-19 prevented that for Nicole.

Lisa says that the award is very rare as it takes a lot of hard work. Completing the different badges required to be eligible for the award usually take four years, but Nicole managed it in three.

“Nicole is a wonderful young lady, and I am incredibly proud of her,” says Lisa. “It has been awesome

to watch her grow.” With a variety of activities including outdoor adventure, advocacy, community service, and leadership opportunities, Nicole says she learned to move beyond her comfort zone.

“We are more than cookie sellers,” Nicole says. “Guides gives new experiences and a safe place to go and be yourself.”

Nicole says she has gained a lot of confidence and has learned to have her say about what she thinks. She loves the opportunity to be involved with helping others.

“People are so supportive at rangers. There’s no negativity,” she says.

“They have helped me to be the person I want to be.”

Nicole is now training to be a leader of Pippins; the youngest in the Girl Guide group, for girls aged five and six.

Dallas’ dream to be queen of the court Jonty Dine Reporter

jonty@nelsonweekly.co.nz jonty@nelsonweekly.co.nz

Dallas Ehau doesn’t just want to play in the world’s biggest tennis tournaments, she wants to win them all.

“I want to be number one in the world.”

The 11-year-old prodigy has already surged to the top of the national rankings and is up for Junior Sportswoman of the Year at the Nelson Sports Awards.

“I didn’t know I was going to be in that, it was a bit of a surprise but pretty cool.”

The former Richmond Primary student recently moved to Auckland to further her career. Mother Tracey King says this has been hugely beneficial to her game as she has joined the prestigious

Lavie Tennis Academy. Dallas has also made the shift to online learning at Te Kura to enable her more time for tennis and to travel for tournaments. Dallas is ranked number one in New Zealand for 12 and under girls, a title

she says she is very proud of.

The highlight of a very successful season came at a tournament in Australia where she played the best tennis of her life, blitzing the competition. Dallas won all four matches in two sets -

6-0, 6-0, in a dominant performance.

She also competed in the Rod Laver Tournament where she lost her quarter-final to the number one ranked Australian. Dallas says she thrives on the challenge of individual sports.

“I like that you don’t have to rely on other people, I’ve never really played team sports.”

Most of Dallas’ development came in her namesake city in the United States where her family moved when she was six. However, when Covid hit the US, the family opted to move back to New Zealand.

The ASB Sports Award will be presented via livestream on the Sport Tasman Facebook page and the Nelson App from 7pm, 3 December.

#FinzUp The Mako had its quest for a hattrick of titles foiled at the hands of Waikato last weekend.

Tasman fell agonisingly short in the Premiership final, going down 23-20 in a thriller.

It began with a fairy-tale season, an unbeaten run to an inaugural premiership title in 2019.

The Mako followed this up with a gritty effort against a highly-favoured Auckland side to go backto-back last season.

However, a third consecutive crown has eluded the side in a season where the squad was ravaged by injury and depleted through All Blacks duty.

Not to mention the constant uncertainties and disruptions due to Covid-19 - the Mako can be proud of its stellar season.

Written off by many after being soundly defeated in the shield challenge and only just scraping into the playoffs, the Mako peaked at the perfect time, producing two near-flawless performances against Wellington and Hawke's Bay before falling to the Mooloos.

D'Angelo Leuila kicked off the scoring in the final as Hamilton put on a stunning evening for the crescendo of the provincial season.

The Mako came within three points of achieving its threepeat. Photo: Shuttersport Tasman claimed the lead approaching the half hour mark, Regan Ware finishing off a brilliant break by halfback Louie Chapman.

Just as Tasman appeared to be asserting control, speedster Bailyn Sullivan turned the tide in a flash as he latched onto a poor pass to streak away for Waikato's first try.

Mitch Hunt evened the honours before Leuila put the hosts back

in front at halftime with a penalty after the siren.

Almost immediately after Hunt squared it up again, Sullivan struck for a second time, another intercept putting Waikato up 2013.

Quentin MacDonald entered the fray in his 100th cap for Tasman while Levi Aumua made a massive impact off the pine.

The hulking centre made two

surging breaks within minutes of getting on the field, his second setting up Quin Strange to score and reestablish the stalemate with ten to play.

Replacement first five Fletcher Smith then kicked the crucial points that would end up separating the two gallant teams, the win breaking a 15-year title drought for Waikato.

It is often said that when it comes to success in big games, “winning the big moments” is key - and so it proved on Saturday night.

When Tasman reflect on how the final slipped away they will pinpoint a series of ‘big moments’ which they lost.

They will look at the loose pass that gifted Sullivan a runaway try immediately after Tasman had begun to boss the game.

They will rue a scrum penalty on the stroke of halftime that enabled the home side to grab a psychological edge going into the break.

Ditto with the wayward pass that handed Sullivan his second try, then an early penalty goal miss

in the second half, the penalty against Anton Segner that allowed Fletcher Smith to land the match-winning penalty and finally, the wayward lineout in overtime that ended Tasman’s chances of a last-gasp miracle play.

Make no mistake, the Mako were up for this game and right in it until the final whistle.

They were just not at their clinical best, and often struggled with the interpretations of referee Nick Briant who, incidentally, also refereed the previous Mooloo v Mako match this season, won 3922 by Waikato.

The 2021 NPC has been a long and winding road, not just for the Mako but for all the NPC sides.

When Covid reared its ugly head again the competition was turned on its head.

Tasman began with a couple of strong showing, beating Bay of Plenty away then lowering Auckland’s colours in Nelson before the competition went into an enforced hiatus.

When they returned to action, over a month later, Auckland, Counties Manukau and North Harbour had dropped out of the competition and the season’s planning was completely up in the air.

The Mako returned with a big win over Northland, but then struck their first road bump, against the side who would prove their season’s nemesis, Waikato.

They rebounded with a big win over Southland, then headed for Napier and a shot at the Ranfurly Shield full of confidence.

But the Magpies were in the middle of a strong season and again Tasman came up short.

Old foe Canterbury was up next and they also had the Mako measure, winning narrowly in Christchurch.

Tasman’s final round robin match was against Wellington, in Blenheim, and had become a virtual

Leicester Fainga'anuku topped the try scoring charts with eight. Photo: Shuttersport quarter-final, with the Lions also needing to win to make the play-offs.

A superb second half and some gritty defence go the job done though and then it was on to the semis and another trip to Napier.

This time the Bay were beaten, Tasman turning in probably their best performance of a testing season.

Then came the final and a chance to conclude what had turned into something of a bizarre season with some familiar silverware.

Making it even more bizarre was the fact their opponents were able to bring this season’s Bay of Plenty halfback, former All Black Te Toiroa Tahuriorangi, on from the bench for the final 10 minutes.

One wonders if Mitch Drummond wouldn’t have been a handy reserve for the Mako. Anyway, despite slipping at the final hurdle, Tasman can take plenty of positives from a season which involved major change.

N E L S O N

The loss of key backline players Finlay Christie, David Havili, Sevu Reece, Mark Telea, Fetuli Paea and Will Jordan certainly hurt the Mako potency on attack, while Tyrel Lomax, Shannon Frizell, Ethan Blackadder, Ryan Coxon and Sione Havili Talitui were sorely missed up front.

However, player development became key, with a string of young players putting their hands up to step into the space left by those regulars.

Guys such as Louie Chapman, who found his running game in the final, Antonio Shalfoon, Max Hicks, Sam Matenga, Anton Segner, Timoci Tavatavanawai (perhaps the rookie of the year), Luca Inch, Macca Springer and Willie Havili showed they can live at the top level.

The youngsters were able to again rely on a band of senior players led by cocaptains Mitch Hunt, whose guidance was superb, and Quinten Strange.

Such experienced operators as Quen-

tin MacDonald, Pari Pari Parkinson, Te Ahiwaru Cirikidaveta, Jacob Norris, Hugh Renton, Alex Nankivell, Tim O’Malley, Levi Aumua and the irrepressible Leicester Fainga’anuku were also pivotal as the Mako found a way to get into the ‘big dance’ again.

They may not have come away with the result that they craved, but Tasman again deserve the respect and admiration of the NZ sporting public, not only for the way they continue to develop talent, but also for their ability to handle defeat with dignity and class.

s w e N g n i h s Fi Anchors Aweigh… or Away?

John Hawkins October 1st signalled to us, it was just the day for our first fish of the Dawnbreakers Fishing Club season, commencing that day. Being a Friday it was perfect to avoid a weekend boat ramp queue and just go through our process slowly and quietly.

The boat had recently come back from service, fuel in, life jackets, electrics and batteries checked, motor cranked over, phone, vhf, bait, berley, tackle, coffee and hot scones packed in the morning. Ready to go!

As we headed out we both commented how good it felt to be back out on the water and it was a beautiful day, even though as we got past Pepin Island it was a bit sloppy.

There was sign on the sounder, so we decided to anchor up and try for a fish. Sue put down a flasher rig and then cast out a new stray-line, with a butterflied pilcher.

A few seconds later the line went limp. Her comment, “not a very good knot”. I did the same with very similar results, but we had unfortunately found barracuda and when we got to the bottom were plagued with spikey dogs. After about half an hour Sue pulled up a nice gurnard. After 12 spikey dogs and 6 barracuda, “Let’s move” was the consensus.

Then the fun began. No power to the Capstan (hmmm I didn’t

check that). Easy, I’ll pull it up by hand. As the weight came onto the anchor it would not lift. We tried all the tricks in the book, with Sue in the driver’s seat and me giving directions.

Backwards, forwards, even around in circles but no luck.

After an hour and a half and all avenues covered even my patience had waned. Sue said “cut the rope” more than once.

Marked it on the sounder and kissed the Anchor good bye.

We decided to carry on past Delaware Bay and have a drift, but after a few more gurnard caught decided the snapper were not biting and headed home. We were both very calm and pleased that we still had a lovely day on the water receiving our vitamin sea and fish for tea, anchor snag aside.

Capstan checked once home – a faulty foot switch. New Anchor, chain and warp… And one Bugger Award received from the club.

They were made to work for it but defending champions Athletic College Old Boys continue to set the pace in the Tasman Premier League, with its third win on the trot.

A brave chase from Wakatu fell 29 runs shy of its target as Ollie Jones-Allen produced a crucial five-for to lead his side to victory on Saturday.

Half centuries at the top of the order by Finn Restieaux and Thomas Zohrab set Wakatu a formidable total of 267.

Restieaux’s 75 came off just 73 deliveries and comprised of 11 boundaries and a six, with both Sam Berkett and Jones-Allen providing some late fireworks.

Daniel Hooper and Campbell McLean ensured a thrilling reply from the hosts with 80 and 69 respectively.

At 216/6 it was ‘game-on’ but when McLean fell, the lower order followed suit and were dismissed for 238 with JonesAllen claiming 5/53.

Elsewhere, Car Company Stoke/Nayland made short work of Nelson College at Marsden Rec., chasing down the modest target with eight wickets and more than 30 overs to spare.

The hosts ripped through the college line-up in just 27 overs with Jared Silvester again at the forefront of the attack with 3/19, while Daniel Phillipps snared 3/19 off four.

Josh Smith was kept busy behind the stumps with five

catches and a run out as no Nelson batsman was able to get past 20. Chris Dittimer controlled a comfortable chase as he notched 59 from 51 balls to seal an emphatic win.

In Blenheim, the Falcons produced the highest total of the season on the back of the competition’s first century.

Matthew Stretch blasted 142 from 109 to propel the Falcons to an imposing 309 against Waimea Toi Toi United, losing its final wicket with the final ball of the innings.

WTTU was never in the hunt, eventually dismissed for 125.

The second match over the Whangamoa’s saw Taylors Contracting Wanderers/Motueka pick up its second win, defeating the Dolphins by six wickets.

Robb steals the show again Jody Scott Canterbury’s Harley Robb has a habit of taking home trophies at Milestone Homes Top of the South Speedway.

Over the weekend, he continued the trend - picking up top prize with team-mate Jayden Nicholls in the stock car best pairs Summer Slam. The former NZ Grand Prix champion was still hard to catch with two wins and a 2nd placing in the heats to give the pairing a one-

point win over local Roydon Winstanley and Blenheim’s Wade Sweeting.

Adam Hall collected his first trophy win in the super stocks winning with partner Lloyd Jennings. Callum Russ continued his good form in the youth section - winning two out of three races. Ryan Musgrove returned to winning ways in the street stocks after playing blocker last meeting. Neville Soper took a big hit and came off second best with a break to

his left leg. He was hit by another car and then forced into the wall and, although it didn’t look too bad, it was enough to cause the serious leg injury.

It took a while to safely extract him from the car after he was towed into the pit area still inside the car.

The next meeting is the “Big One” - the PTS Super Stock Stampede over two nights on December 10 and 11, including Ministock Mania and Street Stock provincial triples event.

Air rifle ideal for pest control The Gamo Swarm Magnum could have almost been designed for the farmer.

With an extra 300 FPS, this break-rotary-fed air rifle in 177 or 22 can cleanly and humanely kill most pests out to 100 metres and, best of all providing you are over 18, you don’t need a licence. Once shooters load up their 10-shot rotary magazine, the Magnum can spit .22 cal. pellets at speeds up to 1,300 fps, a full 300 fps faster than the previous Maxxim. After every shot, simply break the barrel and the magazine automatically loads the next round into the breech.

This perfected system has been left unchanged for multiple shots as fast as you can cock the barrel. Gun city manager Clay Barry says this rifle will quickly become the staple for rural pest control, in particular rabbits and rats. “While we have a small amount of stock at the moment I do urge customers to be quick because, like the rest of the country, we are having supply difficulties.”

The rifle is very high quality and built to be reliable, and retails for $899. It can also be fitted with a scope for pin point accuracy for those long shots.

Tips on writing your resume 1. Keep it short Your current CV may include information about every job or course you’ve ever done but, in New Zealand, CVs are usually only two to three pages long. Employers mainly want to know if you can do the job.

Your CV should include: • your contact details • work experience that is relevant to

Feature

the job you want 3. Make sure your CV is up to • your skills that are relevant to the date job.

If you want an employer to contact you, you need to keep 2. Give examples of your skills your CV up to date with your When writing about your skills, don’t latest address and telephone just list them – make sure that you number. give examples of how you’ve used • Include the phone number each skill. Identify what you did, the that you are most easily consetting in which the activity was car- tacted on, whether it’s a landried out, and what happened as a re- line or cellphone number. sult.

• Check that you have a suitable answerphone message.

• Include an email address on your CV. If you don’t have an email address, set one up.

wanteD! Holiday Park Duty Managers This position is for a couple

We are a small, fun and diverse holiday park located 2km from Nelson City Centre.

As our Holiday Park Duty Managers, you will be working 30-40 hours per week each to cover the Managers days off.

You will be in charge of the on-call after hours phone 4 nights a week.

On the Managers rostered days off you will be responsible for the cleaning and the general day to day running of the holiday Park.

Your responsibilities will include but are not limited to: Housekeeping and cleaning of the facilities, staff organisation, customer service/reception and grounds maintenance. Previous experience in another holiday park or hospitality would be an advantage but not essential.

If you have a positive ‘can do’ attitude, great work ethic and friendly personalities that fit in well with a small team then we want to hear from you.

Included is quality onsite accommodation, including power and Wi-Fi (small weekly rent deducted from wages).

If this sounds like you as a couple, then please send both of your updated resumes and cover letters to john@top10parks.co.nz or pop into reception.

Applicants for this position should have NZ residency or a valid NZ work visa.

4. Include referee contact details Most New Zealand employers will ask for two referees who they can contact to ask about your work. Make sure that the contact details for your referees are current, and check this by contacting them yourself.

Tell them about your plans and ask them to read your CV – you may get some good advice from them. Some New Zealand employers prefer you to have New Zealand work experience. If you are having trouble finding work, consider taking an entry-level job or doing voluntary work. This can also be a source of referees.

5. Put yourself in the employer’s place Once you’ve written your CV it’s important to ask yourself these three key questions: • When an employer scans my CV, will they think “This CV looks interesting”?

Employers have to sort and reduce a pile of CVs to shortlists of two or three people. They will respond better to a clear, well laid-out CV than a long, disorganised one.

• When an employer reads my CV fully, will they think “This person has skills we need”?

Employers are looking for someone who matches the job description. Adjust and target your CV to highlight things that fit the job you are applying for.

• When an employer is shortlisting CVs will they think

“This person is worth meeting”?

Employers are thinking about what you can offer them. Give people a sense of who you are and what you do best.

6. Get it checked It is important to get someone else to check your CV to see that it makes sense, is well formatted and has no spelling or grammatical mistakes.

7. Write a cover letter When you send your CV to an employer, make sure you include a cover letter. Your cover letter should: • explain why you want the job • explain what you can offer the employer • highlight skills, qualifications and experience that you have that match the job.

Top 5 job search secrets from NZ’s best recruitment consultants Whether you’re a job seeker or you’re scoping out a career path, a lot can be learned from the best recruitment consultants in the biz.

As recruiters, it’s our job to slog through candidates and jobs until we spot the best match. We’re not exaggerating when we say we’ve seen it all.If you think you’ve thought of a sure-fire way to stand out from the crowd, chances are, someone else has already done it.

There’s no fooling a recruiter, but learning our secrets will help you gain an edge on your job search.

1. Dig deep and do your research One of the first things we do when matching a candidate with a role is to check that their values, experience and work ethic match those of the prospective employer.

Put your back into some solid research about the company; check

out their website, social media accounts, and stalk them on LinkedIn. What can you gauge about their company values and culture? Now weave your findings into your CV and cover letter. If there’s a match in values and experience, your chances of being picked up out of the stack of CVs is raised.

2. Maintain your social media accounts The best recruitment consultants check your LinkedIn page.

And your Facebook. And your Instagram. If the CV in our hand doesn’t match the information we see on your socials, that’s an instant red flag for us. Keeping your social media accounts up to date is a crucial step in the job search process. It shows that you’re social media savvy, and proves to us that you’re being honest about the details on your CV. 3. Don’t be a flake Flaky candidates are our worst

nightmare. Pulling out of an interview or changing your mind about a role last minute is understandably a massive turn off for a recruiter.

Good communication skills and punctuality are examples of your soft skills. If we can see that your soft skills are lacking, we won’t be lenient. If you’ve committed to something, see it out. T he worst that can happen is you’ll determine that the role isn’t for you, at which point you can communicate it to your recruiter and move on to the next step.

WEDNESDAY 24 November 2021

4. Show your worth Employers love to see qualitative, measurable achievements on a CV. Percentages and dollar figures really stand out on a page, so pull out one or two examples from your past roles and sing them to the rooftops.

Think about a time where you made a sizable impact on the organisation. Have you helped to increase productivity? Managed a sizable marketing budget?

Reduced turnover? We love hard facts, so hit us with your best data.

Trainee Line Mechanics We have an exciting opportunity for those interested in pursuing a career within the Electrical Distribution industry in Hope, Motueka and Takaka.

5. Know who to schmooze While a recruiter may be your main point of contact with your potential employer, it’s important to realise that we’re only there to connect the dots. We’re not going to make the final hiring decision — that’s a decision for the hiring manager or employer. Try not to focus entirely on your relationship with your recruiter. After an interview, it’s worth reaching out to the employer with an email to strengthen that relationship and prove that you’re serious about the role.
