Richmond schools hit hard by flu
Richmond schools are being hit by influenza, with Garin College reporting that up to one third of its students were away last week and Waimea Intermediate this week struggling to find enough relievers to replace sick teachers. Garin College had 160 absences from its roll of 480 last week as a “spike in Type A influenza” hit Nelson and Marlborough. Richmond Health Centre’s Doctor Richard Martin says the spike had earlier hit Canterbury and was now sweeping through Nelson with rates of infection two times higher than usual. Garin’s acting principal Sheila Granger says they have been affected by “a gastric bug as well as a bit of a cold going around” although “it seems to be coming right now”. Waimea Intermediate has also been affected badly with office manager Andy Colley saying they have had

“a significant number of pupils away” over the last few weeks. Staff at Waimea Intermediate have also been affected and the school has “struggled to get relievers because all the schools are after them”. “It’s a nasty virus,” Andy says. “The kids have been feeling dizzy and suffering headaches and they get a nasty cough that hangs around.” Henley School office manager Tracey Aindow says they had 18 to 19 per cent of their pupils away sick on Monday this week which is much higher than usual for winter.

Grower doing her bit for Daffodil Day Simon Bloomberg
Gordon Levy used to spend hours every August helping to organise the Cancer Society's Daffodil Day Appeal. Gordon has sadly passed away, but over 20 years later his daughter Pip Little is continuing the family's involvement in Daffodil Day by growing and picking daffodils she planted on their Hope property specifically for the Cancer Society's biggest fundraiser of the year. Pip planted 5000 daffodil bulbs last
year and this week has been busy picking the flowers to help the society's Nelson centre fill the order for 234 bunches to be distributed to businesses around Nelson and Tasman. "Dad was one of the first volunteers who organised Daffodil Day in Richmond, so I decided I'd like help out as well," Pip says. "I went to the Cancer Society last year and said we had some land to grow daffodils for Daffodil Day, and then we planted all these bulbs that were mostly donated."
Cancer Society Nelson centre manager Linda Lucre says Pip has joined an army of around 500 volunteers who help make Daffodil Day a success. The volunteers will be picking and bunching daffodils early this week in preparation for Friday, when they will set up collection sites at 30 locations in Nelson, Stoke, Richmond, Brightwater, Wakefield, Motueka, Murchison and Golden Bay. Last year, Daffodil Day raised $85,000 for the Nelson centre of the Cancer Society.

“I don’t think they should be armed all the time but in certain circumstances, yes. In a dangerous situation or if under any circumstances they were out on their own.”
“They should be armed, yes. It’s getting to the stage where they need to be the same as all the other countries around the world and be armed.

winter. The only good news for Henley is that so far the teachers have not been affected. “We’ve had colds and flu’s and headaches and a few stomach upsets,” Tracey says. “It’s been trending upwards for a while so touch wood it doesn’t get any worse.” Waimea College acting principal Graeme Smith says they have been lucky with an average of three of the school’s 108 teachers away sick each day.
Students have also been hit although Graeme says that’s “quite common for this time of year”. “I’ve just done a rough calculation and there was probably 15 to 20 per cent away over the last week. We’ve been told it’s a fluflu, whatever that means, probably as a result of the pollen this time of year, as well as a vomiting bug going around.” Richard says “we are seeing a lot of children through the surgery. It’s following a large spike in Canterbury a few weeks ago
although the figures are going down there now. “We are a bit surprised by this because we expected the flu jab to prevent it - we don’t know why it hasn’t worked.” Richard says symptoms typically start with a sore throat and nasal congestion followed by fever, aches and sweats and then a persistent cough that can last up to two weeks. He says pregnant women and anyone with health issues or experiencing chronic symptoms should contact their doctor.

‘Crash risk’ corner to be redesigned Kate Russell Reporter
kate@nelsonweekly.co.nz
A temporary speed limit of 50km on Main Road Stoke has left some Nelson residents confused, with a small stretch of the road staying at 80km. The speed limit was lowered from 80km to 50km around the entrance to Wakatu Estate earlier this month, after an accident at the intersection in May prompted the Nelson City Council to complete a crash reduction study. A motorcyclist was also injured in a crash at the intersection in July. But one small stretch of the road leading into the Salisbury Rd roundabout has been left at 80km, and one local resident, Wayne Sellers, has expressed confusion to the Waimea Weekly, asking why the council hasn’t made it all 50km. “It’s only about a 400m section of road, so by the time you get up to 80km you have to slow back down to 50km again as you approach the roundabout,” he says. “You don’t gain anything, and it’s not saving any time.” Wayne is also concerned that if drivers try to speed up quickly

“I can’t see it causing any accidents.” He says that he can see how it would be confusing for drivers, but emphasises that it is just a temporary measure. “Once the intersection has been upgraded then the whole area will go back up to 80km again,” he explains. Alec Louverdis, group manager of infrastructure at the council, says that plans to make changes to the intersection are still in the early stages and the design work is yet to be completed. It is hoped the work will be carried out within this financial year.

Here’s some stories from ... Man shot by police in Motueka: A man wanted over a parole breach was shot by police in Motueka on Thursday afternoon. Ford William Hurinui, 27, is in a critical condition after a confrontation with police on Wharepapa Grove. Hurinui, who was wanted for breaching his parole conditions, was found by police and a short pursuit ensued through residential streets of Motueka. Police allege Hurinui got out and aimed a gun at police officers, who attempted to negotiate with him. He then attempted to flee on foot, but was pursued by police. Police called on the man to surrender, but he failed to do so and once again aimed a gun at police and was then shot. Police are seeking a second man, Jahdai Brice Kennard, and have called on him to contact police.

Cliff repair enters next stage for November completion: Work continues on the Rocks Rd cliff face as specialist abseilers begin laying 1400 square metres of steel mesh this week. Around 160 anchor rock bolts have already been installed into the cliff, with another 59 to go. The anchors hold the steel mesh onto the cliff face, which will then be coated in a 1600 square metre layer of either sprayed shotcrete or a special mat surfacing. The original completion date was estimated for October, but NZTA regional performance manager Mark Owen says the project is now due to be completed in November.

Richmond tax-dodger sentenced
A Richmond tradesman has been sentenced to four months’ home detention for failing to file tax returns involving more than $92,000. Anthony Robert Pearce was sentenced in Nelson District Court last week after pleading guilty to four representative charges of failing to file tax returns with the intention to evade tax for himself and a company, JAK Holdings Limited. Pearce had worked as a roofing contractor for local roofing companies and originally worked as a sole trader. He took deliberate steps to make it appear as if he was not self-employed and had no association with JAK Holdings Limited, by using his son’s name to incorporate the company. Inland Revenue’s Group Manager Investigations and Advice, Patrick Goggin, said the case sent a strong message to those trying to dodge their tax liability. “It’s important New Zealanders realise that Inland Revenue will investigate people who don’t meet their tax obligations, and we will prosecute them if they continually flout their social responsibility and not do the right thing.” Both Pearce and JAK Holdings were required to file income tax and GST returns accounting for the income that they had received. Although Pearce received regular reminders from Inland Revenue about overdue returns and debt, he did not file the returns, or make any payments. Nine income tax returns and 18 GST returns were not filed. This resulted in income tax of $51,044.17 and GST of $41,762.85 being evaded by Mr Pearce and JAK Holdings Limited. Pearce was also sentenced to 120 hours of community detention and ordered to pay reparation of $45,000.

Police sting fails Cake-taster doing his bit for school fair to catch local bars Simon Bloomberg
Former All Black Chris Jack will be having his cake and eating it, at the Appleby School Country Fair next Saturday. Like all the Appleby School parents, Chris has put his hand up to help run the popular fair. And because he is a self confessed expert on baking, it made sense to assign him to the arduous task of judging the cake and truffle baking competitions. “When we were on tour, we got tired of hotel food so we’d do some baking in our rooms, so I know a bit about it,” Chris says. “But I’m definitely more of a consumer - I know a good cake when I taste one.” Chris says he will be looking at both presentation and taste but isn’t too concerned about the ingredients, saying, “it won’t have to be healthy as long as it tastes good.” He also hinted that chocolate and carrot cakes would have the inside running because they are his favourites. Chris’ wife Kym says her husband’s vast experience eating cakes at home makes him the perfect man for the job. “I usually bake one cake a week and the kids know they’re not allowed to eat too much at once, but Chris doesn’t. If all the cake’s gone, I know who’s eaten it.” Fortunately, Chris will only be sampling a small piece of the cakes and truffles which will then be sold in the cafe kitchen. The winning cakes will be announced at
Bars in the Waimea region passed a Police sting with flying colours. Last Friday, police, along with the Nelson Marlborough District Health Board and Tasman District Council, organised the operation in which a total of 16 licensed premises in Richmond, Mapua, Brightwater, Wakefield and Tapawera were visited by two 16 year old volunteers. The sting also included supermarkets and bottle stores. All the premises visited during the operation were found to be operating within the laws, with none selling alcohol to the underage volunteers. “It is very encouraging to see everyone complying with their licence conditions and being responsible hosts,” says liquor licensing sergeant Malcolm Drummond.

Editorial: Let’s support new airlines Andrew Board
It’s an exciting time for Nelson air travellers. For years we’ve been at the mercy of Air New Zealand and they’ve shown very little of it. We’ve been forced to pay extraordinary fares – often larger than international fares – because we had little choice. So Air New Zealand has rubbed its hands in pleasure and overcharged us year in, year out. The cost of air travel was out of control, and out of reach for many Nelsonians.
Protests from local folk have been getting louder and louder over the past few years and the right people were obviously listening. Originair started flying earlier this month, Kiwi Regional Airlines will start flying next month and Jetstar is on the verge of announcing where it will fly, with Nelson strongly tipped to be in the mix. It’s a relief for many of us, but how did Air New Zealand react? Exactly as many predicted, by slashing its fares as low as $59 for flights to Auckland, Wellington
Jetstar’s Q300 which is tipped to start flying to Nelson. and Christchurch. It’s great to see the cheap fares, but infuriating knowing that they could have made more flights cheaper more often but didn’t - until a bit of competition came to town. New Zealand Herald reported yesterday that Air New Zealand
fares were being dropped by as much as 40 per cent on some regional routes. Air NZ, of course, denied the price drop was to target Jetstar ahead of an announcement of where they will fly next month. Air New Zealand’s chief sales and commercial officer, Cam Wallace, told the Herald that his airline had said earlier this year - before Jetstar announced its plans - that it would cut prices. “We are now seeing this play out,” Wallace said. While Jetstar NZ CEO Grant Kerr was quoted in the same
article, saying he’s not surprised to see the price drop. “We’re delighted to see that without even announcing destinations or publishing a schedule, Jetstar is already making regional travel much more affordable,” Kerr said. For many, the cheap Air NZ fares will help them fly to see friends and family, enjoy a holiday or travel for work. That’s great, but let’s not forget how they treated us when they were the only ones flying here. I urge locals to support the other airlines as much as they can.

Ark dogs get new wardrobe The Nelson Ark’s dogs are not only easy to spot these days, they are sending a very clear message to potential owners. The Ark rescues unwanted dogs and pairs them with at-risk youths, in a programme aimed at getting young people back on track and training the dogs. And the Ark’s trainer Vikki Pickering is hoping that new dog coats with Adopt Me printed on the sides will help them complete the final phase of the programme - finding a new home for the dogs. Last week, the six dogs in the Ark’s second programme for the year became the first intake to wear the coats and Vikki says they “help them stand out in a crowd”. “The coats are a great conversation starter and bring attention to people that the dog is up for adoption. It gets them talking about the Nelson Ark as well, so it’s a great advertising and networking for both the dog and the Ark.” Vikki says the coats were donated by Sue Walsh, who was the trainer for the Ark until she left at the end
of last year. Vikki says the dog’s foster owners, who look after the dogs while they are taking part in the 12-week training programme, are encouraged to put the coats on the dogs when they take them out in public. She says they have already found permanent homes for two of the six dogs in the latest course and hope the coats help find homes for the remaining four. Although Vikki is optimistic they will find good homes for the dogs, she says the Ark is “desperately short” of foster owners to look after the dogs while they are being trained. She says fostering a dog is a good way to find out if the dog is suitable for a family. “We provide all the food and vet care, and can pick up and drop-off the dogs for training,” Vikki says. “If it works out, the family has the option of adopting the dog at the end of the course.” Anyone interested in fostering or adopting an Ark dog can call the Nelson Ark on 5423866.

Richmond Baptist Church and Grace Church are helping to bring a little joy into the lives of young children in cyclone-devastated Tanna Island in Vanuatu, this Christmas. The two churches are collecting gifts as part of the international aid project Operation Christmas Child, which sends shoeboxes full of presents to children in more than 100 countries every Christmas. Grace Church’s Julie Barry says Operation Christmas Child is sending around 5000 boxes from New Zealand and Australia to Tanna, which was

devastated by Cyclone Pam in March. She says people can help out by filling the shoeboxes with a few items of clothing, toys, school and hygiene supplies, and donating the $9 postage cost. “This is also a fantastic opportunity for teaching your own children, grandchildren, nieces and nephews the value of giving,” Julie says. Shoeboxes can be collected from either Richmond Baptist Church at 123 Salisbury Rd or Grace Church at 452 Lower Queen St. All boxes can be returned to either of the above churches during October.

Pass the salt and pepper please Monaco Collection Three separate collections of salt per and metre pepper shakers, totalling around 800 sets, will go under the hammer this weekend in what is thought to be one of the largest auctions of its kind. The first collection of around 450 shakers was given to Libscombes Auction House about two months ago from a deceased estate. Then two weeks ago another collection of 340 was brought in and just last week another collector dropped off another 50. Libscombes co-owner Eleanor Davidson says they’ve been astounded by the amount and detail of the shakers. “It’s been quite intriguing and a lot of fun. In a way, we’d like to leave them on display for several weeks so people can have a look at them.” The second collection up for auction was owned by local woman Olive Jackson. She says Nelson had its own salt and pepper shaker club around 30 years ago. “Both my husband and I belonged to it and there were clubs all around New Zealand, so whenever we’d go on holiday we would go to a club meeting and see if there were any there we’d like to buy.” Olive says she decided to sell the shakers because she’s 90 years old and “as you get older there are things you can get rid of ”. The shakers will be sold in lots of around 30-40 shakers and will go under the hammer at the Antique, Collectable Art Auction this Saturday, August 29 at 11am, at Libscombes Auction House on New St.

No more round-abouts: Oh, please, no more roundabouts. They block traffic flows at peak times. The trouble is caused by a minority of rude and impatient Nelson drivers unable to merge or control their desire to race. If a slower driver pisses you off, try and control your road rage. If you cannot, buy a mobility scooter or a bicycle. Dot Parsons. Free WiFi costs: The Weekly notes the absurdity of ratepayers supporting innercity Wi-Fi at $1.20 per use. But this is only one example of council continuing to lavishly spend money from rates on non-core activities while infrastructure receives insufficient funding from rates. Instead, council borrows to fund infrastructure. Compare our situation in Nelson to the council based at Oamaru, where over the last twelve months, council operated with a multi-million dollar surplus despite installing a new water purification facility. That council sticks to its knitting, and thus does not have the cost overruns that plague councils like Nelson. The huge liabilities accepted by NCC in recent years will swamp.co.nz Nelson ratepayers over the next ten years. Maybe then we will begin electing councillors who are prudent with our money, rather than ones who are susceptible to lobby groups wanting to raid the public purse. Dan McGuire.

I want to put more up but we rent. I asked the landlord about it and they said two is enough. Cheyenne Evans. If there was a system where you could take your smoke alarm in and have the old battery replaced with a new working one, then a lot more people would have more working smoke alarms. We have two, but I have heard people saying that they can not afford new batteries. Aimieelee Marshall. Yes, I have six. Two more to install. Mat Krahagen. Everyone should have one. If you can afford a coffee, or a beer or wine, you can afford a battery. There are the new alarms out that don't require a battery change and last ten years. More expensive, but saves any hassles of not replacing batteries and, I think, work out cheaper over ten years. Gary Price.

Just a thought... By Rev Allan Wasley, Wakefield Anglican Church
At last. Just when we had all had a belly-full of cold and wet weather, and ordering more wood, it seems the spring may well be driving the daffodils out and exciting us by a renewed season of grass cutting. I reckon it’s the one season which really gives us an insight into the circle of life that God as Creator has somehow
planned to provide for this very blessed planet, called the Earth. In particular, it reminds me of the continuing process of death that winter brings to our gardens – for otherwise we would not have the soil refreshed and left fallow to kill the bugs with a good frost. We are ready to stop our winter fires, get on the lighter clothes, and get the garden tools out. The process of tilling the earth, planting seeds, bulbs and plants,
News is strangely therapeutic to the human soul. Gardening brings happiness and fulfilment. Some mysterious force brings those dead plants into life – to provide us with a mix of shrub, tree and flower, beauty and delight, as well as various crops which grow naturally and don’t come out of a freezer or can. The analogy can be extended out to the span of life that is allotted human beings. After a long gestation, an infant bursts forth with a miraculous surge – and delighted

parents are full of hope, of faith, of thankfulness to God, and wonderment as to what their life will turn out as they grow. Children along the way are such a mixture of fun, hilarity and delight - a mix of marvel and monster. All this relies on a coming season of new life, of new growth, and of vitality that has been designed to bless us and make us thankful to God. Yes, it is deeper than science, more logical than myth. It so fills us with new life and new hope that someone, God I say,
has designed every tree, every flower and even every human being – to be a blessing and make life so fantastic. It’s as if this someone has a plan for our lives, breathes life into our bodies, and gives us Hope beyond the mundane. For the Christian, it is a reminder that even when suffering, sin, fear and doubt try to break us the resurrection hope that Jesus Christ can raise us to newness of life, holds the promise of more to come, even a life beyond death.
Freezer now full for Gun Shop winner
When the Gun Shop in Motueka decided to hold a competition for its first birthday, they didn't quite expect the response they got. To enter the competition – the winner of which received a half day guided hunt with Doughboy Safari owner Alex Monahan – people simply had to buy one item at the Gun Shop Motueka on the day of its birthday. They ended up with 280 entries. "It was certainly a busy day," says store co-owner James Simpson. "We haven't seen anything like it, the promotion in the Weekly certainly did the trick." Winner of the competition, Shane Ryland, also happened to be the first person in the store that day when he went in to buy a new jacket. Earlier this month he collected his prize and, as a result, has a freezer full of venison.

Lauren Kelley poses for a photo in Commentary Cave in Upper Takaka. Photo: Sean Canton.
Stunning photos shot in local caves The Nelson-based outdoor education centre Whenua Iti is looking to extend its annual photography workshop and competition, after it produced a series of stunning shots taken in the region’s caves. Whenua Iti invited well-known caver and adventure photographer, Neil Silverwood, to take the centre’s second photography workshop and competition held earlier this month. Neil took a group of aspiring photographers into Commentary Cave in Upper Takaka to put their newly-acquired knowledge into practise and the re-
sults were amazing, with Sean Canton’s shot taking the award for the best photo. “I was really surprised how well it turned out,” Sean, who has been a keen amateur photographer for the last 35 years, says. “Neil told us not to worry too much about the numbers and settings and to just keep reviewing the shots and making adjustments, and it worked. I’ve had quite a bit of feedback from the photo. There’s a few likes on Facebook and I’ve had people who I don’t even know say ‘well done’.” Whenua Iti manager Mark Bruce-Miller says the photog-
raphy workshop and competition is “proving to be popular” and they will consider expanding its format to attract more people next year. “The cave photography was only open to a limited number of photographers who had to be over the age of 18 because of the nature of the environment they were going into,” Mark says. “The concept has got legs, so next year we’d like to make it more accessible, especially to younger photographers.” Photos from the workshop can be seen on Whenua Iti’s Facebook page.

New vicarage underway
With things changing so fast these days it takes vision and commitment to plan ahead and provide for the future. After several years planning, the Brightwater Community Anglican Church has begun to build a new Church house (Vicarage) in Brightwater, with the aim of providing
the community with a local church and resident church Minister into the future. Last week the foundations were dug and laid, and this week should see the floor slab laid. The last Vicarage served the community for 116 years - we trust this one will serve many years, too.

Fabric & patchwork paradise
Grape Escape Complex - McShanes Road Richmond - Ph 544 4630
Creative people are everywhere and you don’t have to go far to find June Law, a passionate teacher and expert in all things fabric and thread. June’s Room is her latest project, offering a nurturing environment where people wanting to develop their creativity can come and achieve wonderful things. For the first 20 years of her working life June was running cinemas, in the 1960s when television hit, she also qualified as a home economics teacher and has been dedicated to the profession for most of her life. After retiring
from teaching, June was invited to go overseas for 12 months as a volunteer teacher and help up-skill girls in the art of patchwork and quilting in Thailand. Droughts had put an end to any kind of income so the aim of June’s teaching was to give the girls skills they could use to support themselves. “That was a very humbling experience and when I left Thailand after 12 months, I felt I could do anything,” says June. So she returned to New Zealand and bought the gallery within the Grape Escape complex, operating it for seven years.
A proud supplier to June’s room
June’s Room was established to fill a gap in the area which lacked, at the time, a source of quality fabric. As she was still running the gallery, June’s Room was an idea that June was looking forward to focusing on in her “second” retirement. With the gallery officially closed, June’s Room is in full swing and people are welcome to come and learn from a passionate crafter. “This is how I see my role in this stage of my life, passing on knowledge while I still can,” says June. With over 50 years of professional teaching experience in all aspects of sewing and needlecraft, there is no end of knowledge to learn from and there is nothing June enjoys more than engaging with people who have similar interests and helping them grow their confidence. Julie Hunter, June’s Room features a Suzanne Law. huge range of colourful cotton and linen fabrics, sourced from around the world, plus, a range of accessories and craft supplies both for customers and to enhance her teaching abilities. Working alongside June, Susanna Law and Julie Hunter are more than happy to assist in fabric and colour selection, as well as offering their skills and advice in all aspects of quilt making and general sewing. From the formulation of ideas and designs through to sewing
techniques and pattern translations, June’s Room is here to help you reach your creative potential. “People talk about the atmosphere in here, and they all enjoy it, the ladies can’t wait to get here every week, some people even travel from Motueka. A number of the ladies in care giving situations set aside this time to do something for themselves. They’re learning in a non judgmental environment, in their own time and at their own pace,” says June. Everyone from beginners to the experienced are welcome at June’s Room and everyone is able to work on their own project, bouncing ideas off other students and June, and creating a finished product they can be proud of. June’s current class schedule includes two June Law and day sessions on Monday and Thursday from 9:30am until 11:30am and covers patchwork and quilting techniques. These skills are also taught on Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 6pm until 8pm, then on Friday, from 10am until 12pm, people can learn how to sew and use over lockers. Anyone that is interested in joining one of June’s classes can contact her by email, escape. gallery@clear.net.nz or give her a call between 10am and 4pm on 544 4630.

mittee. He was vice-president when the club qualified for the Mainland League in 2006, one of the highlights of his time at the club. “That was a massive day for the club. There was a huge crowd and everyone ran onto the pitch afterwards.” The following year, with the club playing in that league, Stu received a phone call from thenpresident Phil Whitley. “He said ‘my lawyers have advised me to resign as the president as of now. Good luck.’ And that was it, I was president.” The fallout from Phil – and his money – leaving the club was huge, with numerous out-oftown players leaving when their pay check was no longer guaranteed. The club was relegated the following year. Stu says it was a tough start to his time as president but he’s enjoyed plenty of success since. “There have been lots of highlights and some lows as well, but just being involved in the club has been a real highlight for me.

It is the one achievement he holds above all else.

“To be on the honours board with my mum and my dad is a buzz. It’s not what I’m involved in the sport for, but it has certainly been pretty special.” Stu says he had hoped to complete ten years as president before resigning but now is the right time to step down.

Last week’s solutions
Stu Reid’s rise to the top of the Richmond Athletic Football Club was far from conventional – his exit, however, will be much more dignified. After nine years as president of Richmond Athletic, Stu has decided to quit the job to spend more time with his family. He says he’s “burnt out” after almost a decade running the club, but has no plans to leave the club entirely. “I will continue to play and will continue to be involved in the club, and I’m really looking forward to just standing on the deck on Saturdays and watching football with a rum in my hand.” Stu’s involvement started with Richmond as a five year old when his father signed him up to play midgets. His dad was already well-known to the club as a player and his mum as an enthusiastic supporter and club volunteer. “My parents came over from Scotland and the story is that they arrived in Nelson on the Wednesday and Dad started playing for Richmond on the Saturday.” Stu played for Richmond as a youngster and when he returned to Nelson in 2000, after 14 years working in other parts of the country, he joined the club com-

With the final round of the championship round yet to be played, the semi-finalists have already been found in the Nelson Netball Premier 2 grade competition. Prices Pharmacy Gold, Waimea College A, Tapawera Nelson Honey and Jacks Pro Netball have qualified although their seedings could change considerably after the final round next week. Competition has been keen and
Sport
at times there has been very little between the teams. Tapawera and Waimea College 10A scraped through with one goal victories in their games at Saxton Stadium on Saturday, Jacks Pro Netball had a five goal win while Waimea College A recovered from a slow start to account for Prices 45-34. Waimea College A opened their account on their first centre pass but Prices responded, scoring seven unanswered goals. While
the college team took time to settle, their shooters Demi Woolley and Kalyssa Rasmussen were doing all that was asked of them as Prices took an 11–9 lead into the first break. Prices made five positional changes at the break which appeared to take time to settle. The teams scored off their own centre passes for the first six, however the college team scored five unanswered goals to take the lead which they did not relinquish.
Waimea had a 20–18 advantage at the major break. Centre Lauren Hippolite was a threat through court and impressed as the pivotal link. Kalyssa was slick off the line and took the majority of the centre passes, which allowed wing attack, Brooke Mathieson to be an effective option as second phase. The speed of the ball meant the shooters were receiving an abundance of stress-free ball, which resulted in impressive statistics –
Demi 34 from 43 for 81 per cent while Kalyssa shot 11 from 12 for 92 per cent. Waimea stuck with their original line up until the final quarter, as each and every one were “doing their job”. The defensive duo of Georgia Roden and Louise Walker did not do anything flashy but were solid throughout, while wing defence Hana Tava provided the “nuisance value” on the outside of the circle. The final will be played on September 12.

It’s the second year in a row that Sprig & Fern, along with Art Expo Nelson have offered this unique opportunity which will see one New Zealand artist get their work showcased, for a limited time, on one of their biggest selling beer labels. While the total number of entries isn’t known, Sprig & Fern owner and head brewer Tracy Banner says they have received a lot, and now four paintings have been short-listed with voting in full swing to find out which image Sprig & Fern patrons want to see on their Pilsner riggers. Tracy says the competition is a great chance for the winner to get their art out to a huge audience as their Pilsner riggers are stocked in supermarkets and liquor stores around the country. The chance to choose your favourite artist is as simple as walking into any one of their nine Sprig & Fern taverns between

The winner of the coveted prize will be announced at Art Expo Nelson on Labour Weekend and as well as their painting on a Sprig & Fern beer, the lucky people’s favourite will also win $1000 prize money. The four finalists in the competition are from Tasman, Nelson and Temuka, although their identities will be kept anonymous until voting has come to an end. Make sure you take a trip to Sprig & Fern between now and September 12 to vote for your favourite work of art.

Local swimmers prepare for Australian champs Tasman Swim Club’s Sam McKenzie and Thomas Heaton are preparing to “take another step in their development” when they compete in next month’s Australian State Teams Age Short Course champs in Canberra. Sam and Thomas, both 16, were selected in the 40-swimmer team last week after winning gold medals at the New Zealand short course championships in Auckland earlier this month. Sam will be swimming in the 16-17 boys 100m and 200m freestyle while Thomas will contest the 16-17 boys 400m and 1500m freestyle at the champs in Canberra from September 25 to 27. Although the two swimmers have raced in Australia before, their coach Andy Adair says this will be their toughest assignment yet. “They were both in the New Zealand team that went to the Australian age groups last year, so they have experience at that level,” Andy says. “There were 1200 kids and half a dozen Olympians there, but this will be harder because they will be swimming in the 16-17 age group. “It’s going to be a great opportunity for them. It’s another step in their development.” Sam says he’s excited by the prospect of competing against the best swimmers in Australia although recognises it is going to be a “steep learning curve” stepping up an age group. He is also looking forward to staying at Australia’s elite sporting precinct, the Australian Institute of Sport’s campus in Canberra. “I can’t wait to swim against the Australians again,” Sam says. “We’ll be racing against faster swimmers so hopefully that’ll push us to go faster.” Thomas knows it will be a big challenge racing against older swimmers and hopes that it will “help us learn to go faster”. The three-day meet will feature a team’s competition which Andy says will add another dimension to the champs. “It’s also going to be interesting for them because it’s team’s racing, so there’s always a lot more hype and excitement. Even if they can’t win a race, it’s important to get second or third to get points for the team.” Andy says Tasman Swim Club’s Talia Harwood just missed selection for the team, while Caitlin Delany was ineligible because she “just turned 17” and missed the 15 to 16 age criteria for girls.

Engineering geologist, Andrew Smith is the latest recruit at Davis Ogilvie’s office in Nelson. The Nelson office has been keen to add the geotechnical and environmental engineering disciplines to its established structural engineering, civil engineering, surveying and planning services, and Andrew’s appointment fills the gap. Originally from the United Kingdom, Andrew is an experienced engineering geologist who has worked on a number of geotechnical and contaminated land projects in Nelson over the last five years, as well as many around the country and the world. “The opportunity to join Davis Ogilvie came at exactly the right time for me and I took the chance to join a developing team which is providing a robust one-stop-shop service to local residential and commercial developments. “Being part of a new structural, geotechnical and environmental team at DO and to become actively involved in the local market is a great challenge. The range of work is interesting and it’s a great learning environment.” Andrew’s inclusion in the team comes as Davis Ogilvie consolidates its Nelson base with the recent addition of both a contract Geotechnical Engineer and Structural Draughtsperson. Tony Lindbom, DO’s Nelson Director, says they are also fortunate to have the Nelson office’s previous Managing Director, Dave Ward, working as a consultant for the company. Davis Ogilvie’s surveying capabilities have also been enhanced with the recent purchase of a new top of the line GPS system. The firm’s one-stop-shop options for building and development are beginning to attract an increasing number of clients. A major project that Davis Ogilvie is currently working on is the Richmond West residential and light industrial development, where planning is progressing well. Other residential developments that Davis Ogilvie has been working on include multi-lot subdivisions in Atawhai, Nelson, Stoke, Richmond, Kaiteriteri and Kaikoura. “We also have a large industrial development in Stoke that is to be expanded in the near future,” says Tony Lindbom.
