NMIT to add 200 students to Richmond campus Matt McCrorie Reporter

matt@waimeaweekly.co.nz

NMIT’s Richmond campus is set to grow, with the campus expand-

ing to take on 200 students a year.

Currently home to Nelson Marlborough Institute of Technology’s horticulture, the Richmond campus will be expanded to carpentry courses and Trades Academy

and Foundation Studies (TAFS) The move is part of a suite of refurbishments planned by NMIT, including a $1.2m rebuild of its Applied Businesses school building in the Nelson campus, K

block.

NMIT’s Executive Director of Strategy, Enterprise and Sustainability, Grant Kerr, says the decision to move its Trades Academy to Richmond is based on the ‘sig-

nificant growth’ of the course.

“The move to Richmond provides us with the opportunity to engage closer with industry,” Grant says.

Jacqui Rawson A local man from Aniseed Valley, George Bennett, is currently competing in the most highlighted of cycling feats, the Tour de France, but Brent Sturm remembers George at age 16 when he came seeking sponsorship to get to France and ride.

“We’re all extremely proud of him,” says the Tasman Wheelers Cycling Club committee member.

George has come a long way since those beginnings, but he is just the same, says Brent. He’s a well-liked guy who hasn’t lost any of his humbleness and always comes to ride with the club when he’s back in town.

While racing in Europe George has found enough time to help promote his hometown club Tasman Wheelers’ spring racing series that starts this Saturday, 5th September, making videos and sending them home for the club. George first started his

There are still a lot of things we have to go into Nelson for so growth will help create a bit more of a Richmond hub, things like a cinema.

It’s expanding too fast for the roading infrastructure. The speed of the growth needs to be controlled so that the infrastructure pace is the same.

NMIT to boost Richmond campus fRoM PAGE 1 “It also provides us with closer connectivity with Motueka and the surrounding areas – we are seeing a number of students coming out of Motueka area.”

NMIT is currently looking at several options for a building project that would facilitate the courses moving to Richmond, but aims to have the courses up and running in Richmond for February 2021, with tutors and course management staff also shifting their offices across to Richmond.

“It’s certainly an investment for the Richmond area, but the biggest gain for us is going to be our connectivity with the businesses in the

region,” Grant says.

“It takes us out of our campus environment, and opens up for more partnership with industry, especially with the growth that is going on in Richmond at the moment.”

Grant says that the move cements NMIT’s commitment to Richmond and the wider region.

Waimea College Principal Scott Haines has also welcomed the move.

“NMIT’s relocation of the Trades Academy to the Richmond Campus is welcome news for Waimea College,” he says.

“Particularly for the students studying trades-academy subjects through the Top-of-the-South Trades.”

Mixed recycling on hold

Essential maintenance at the Recycling centre Richmond means that any mixed recycling (plastic paper, cardboard, cans) collected in the week of 14-18 September can’t be processed and will go to landfill.

The plant operator, Smart Environmental, needs to replace a chain drive conveyer belt at the processing plant.

Glass that is collected during this week will be recycled as normal.

Wheelie bins will still be collected if they are put out, but the contents will go into landfill rather than being recycled.

Protestors blockade Ravensdown Matt McCrorie Protestors from the environmental group ‘Extinction Rebellion’ caused a stir in Richmond this week, chaining themselves to the gates of Ravensdown on Lower Queen Street at dawn on Monday to halt the production of synthetic nitrogen fertiliser.

Extinction Rebellion is a global environmental movement with the aim of using nonviolent civil disobedience to compel government action to avoid tipping points in the climate system.

Protesters aimed to halt the distribution of synthetic nitrogen fertiliser, which they say causes the pollution of rivers and lakes. Employees and trucks were unable to access the depot as protestors chained themselves to the gates.

Extinction Rebellion Whakatū campaigner Te Wehi Ratana says that the government needs to phase out synthetic fertiliser and limit the pollution resulting from industrial agriculture.

“We’re making a stand against the synthetic fertiliser that’s degrading our water and driving the climate crisis,” Ratana says.

Dr Aaron Stallard, who is the Green Party Candidate for Nelson, says that the protest is about standing up for rivers and lakes.

The all new

“This is about our government not doing enough to protect our rivers and our lakes, so we are making a stand,” he says.

“Ravensdown supplies most of the agricultural market in New Zealand with synthetic nitrogen fertiliser and blood phosphates,” he says.

Aaron says that nitrogen fertiliser contributes to the poor health of New Zealand waterways.

“For all the problems that we have with rivers that aren’t swimmable, the two biggest factors are livestock effluents and fertiliser, so that system needs to change, that’s why we blocked the gates,” he says.

“We don’t want to burden our children with a worsening climate crisis. The answer is

fewer cows and the end of synthetic fertiliser,” Ratana says.

A police spokesperson said that police officers were at the event, and arrived at 7:15am.

“The priority for police is to ensure safety and uphold the law, while recognising the lawful right to protest,” a spokesperson said.

Protester Tamzyn Davey says that protestors are willing to be arrested for what they believe in.

“I’ve been involved in protests in Australia, mostly against the coal mining industry, and I’ve been arrested,” she says.

“It’s for people to see that normal folks are upset enough about this that they are willing to get arrested, it’s making a point to our leaders,” she says.

Piano removed after years in Richmond Jacqui Rawson Reporter

jacqui@waimeaweekly.co.nz

An upright piano, lovingly painted by artists and used by members of the public, has had to be removed from Richmond.

Stephanie Buck donated the piano more than six and a half years ago because she wanted to share the instrument and through it breathe artistic life into Richmond.

Most of that time there have been no issues related to the piano other than the noise of unskilled fingers.

However, after years of public use, the piano won’t be avaliable for the public anymore.

“All because of the abuse of a few, the instrument has had to be removed,” says Stephanie.

Since lockdown 4 the piano has been vandalised more than once.

Nelson Matters

The part I love about my job is the opportunity it gives me to make a positive difference in Nelsonians’ lives. Helping Angela Wilson get cataract surgery last week was such an experience.

Angela came to me for help early this year out of frustration at being refused access to cataract surgery. She is 49, can’t drive and can’t work. She has had repeated falls from her blindness resulting in broken bones and hospital admissions. She was advised by the Nelson Marlborough District Health Board last year that she did not meet the criteria for public surgery. She wrote to the

Minister of Health 18 months ago but got fobbed off. Support was offered in getting alterations to her house to make it safer, despite this costing much more than the surgery.

I took Angela to Nelson Airport last Friday where the charity Angel Flight flew her to Hamilton for the surgery. A huge thank you to pilot Kurt Fraunstein who gave his time and Nelson aircraft owners Ian and Jill Andrews who donated the use of the aircraft and fuel. It was not without drama, with disruptions firstly from the Auckland Covid lockdown and then fog in Hamilton.

I was so relieved to return An-

gela home safely on Friday night.

The bonus is they removed the cataracts in both eyes. Angela is this week recovering.

The bigger issue is why our public health system is failing people like Angela. I found out in investigating Angela’s case that the number of cataract surgeries

A cover was made by Mortimer’s Upholstery to place over the piano and meet Covid-19 protocols thanks to donations from the public and businesses in the area. The cover had a sign on it asking people not to play the piano while in lockdown 2.

Last week, less than a week after the cover was first put on the piano, in one incident it had its zips broken and then in another incident, the cover was removed and stolen. At the time of the second incident, a hinge was also broken, and the piano’s lock destroyed.

In previous years, the piano was wheeled somewhere safe overnight by happy-to-help staff from both The Warehouse and Kmart. The piano sat in the front of Benge & Co Green Grocers for a long time until the business closed, and this is where the piano received most of its ongoing help. The staff

ensured it was indoors and safe every night.

The first acts of vandalism amounted to someone breaking off the donations box. This happened again during another incident, but the donations box was left untouched in the latest attack.

“I just can’t understand why anyone would take the cover, or trash the lock for that matter,” says Steph.

Police were notified of the incident and were checking CCTV in the area.

Stephanie removed the piano last Friday to place it in a secure location where it will be fixed and cleaned-up ready for whatever becomes the next steps for Stephanie and the piano.

At this stage Stephanie is unsure what the best solution is, but is contemplating giving the piano a holiday in another location in the Tasman area.

done each year by Nelson Marlborough Health has reduced 27% since Labour became Government in 2017. The numbers grew from 364 in 2009 to 573 in 2017 under National (an increase of 57%) but have since declined to 414 in 2019. There are over 100 locals waiting on cataract surgery and this excludes people like Angela who do not meet the criteria. I have spoken to many doctors concerned that the criteria for cataract surgery is outdated and unfair. I am also concerned that eligibility varies significantly around New Zealand so people’s access to healthcare varies by postcode.

Angela has organised a petition that I am supporting to get Parliament to review the criteria for surgery, which is not expensive but makes a huge difference to people’s lives. It is false economy with welfare and other costs often exceeding the cost of getting the surgery done.

I encourage Nelsonians to support Angela’s petition. It can be signed at my caravan in Strawbridge Square in Stoke on Thursday 11am-2pm, Sundial Square in Richmond, Friday 11am-2pm, or in Montgomery Square in Nelson 8.30am-12.30 on Saturday.

We need to improve access to this life-changing surgery.

Tasman region’s busiest roundabout to be upgraded school children in this area, we’ve got our premium sports complex down the road, and an increasing commercial area here. With the supermarket going in, this is a really important area to try and improve what is available for pedestrians and cyclists,” he says.

“If you don’t have to drive, we want you to be able to make a safe decision not to drive.”

Matt McCrorie Reporter

matt@waimeaweekly.co.nz

The busiest roundabout in the Tasman District is set to get a much-needed upgrade.

Agreed by council late last year, the roundabout on the corner of Champion and Salisbury Roads will be upgraded to have double lanes at the three busiest entry points, and new shared cycle and pedestrian crossings built. With nearly 17,000 vehicles passing through a day, this roundabout is the busiest in the district.

The development of a Countdown supermarket on the corner means that the intersection will become even busier.

Tasman District Council’s transportation manager Jamie McPherson says that the initial plans to build an underpass below Champion Road have been scrapped, in favour of a cheaper option.

“The council had included a project to build an underpass under Champion Road as well as the roundabout upgrade, but as the investigation progressed, it turned out to be more expensive and challenging – rather than an underpass we decided to add raised crossings at each approach. “

TDC transport manager Jamie McPherson says that the planned Countdown supermarket in Richmond is the catalyst for the Salisbury/Champion Roads roundabout upgrade.

The proposed underpass would have set the council back $2.9m. Nelson City Council’s contribution to the project, as it borders on their jurisdiction, was fixed and would not be increased and NZTA would not subsidise the work. Instead, the two atgrade crossings on Champion Road and Salisbury Road will cost $100,000 before any subsidy from NZTA. The twin-laning of the roundabout is expected to cost council $900,000.

Both Nelson City Council

and Woolworths, who own Coutdown, have made commitments to co-fund the works.

Jamie says that splitting the single approach lanes on Salisbury and Champion Roads will help with traffic at peak times.

“On Salisbury Road approach and Champion Road approach lane, the single approach lanes that we’ve got now will split into two approach lanes. On Salisbury Road we’ll be able to split Straight ahead traffic from

those who are turning, so you get more throughput at peak times,” he says.

The tender process for the project began last week and will go through until the end of September. Council hopes to have construction underway before Christmas, with a completion date for the roundabout set around mid2021.

Jamie says that making sure there are safe options for walking and cycling is a priority in the upgrade.

Masks now required for public transport Matt McCrorie Bus drivers in Nelson are now encouraging passengers to wear face coverings as the government mandated their use on public transport across the country.

The government announced the mandate last week that under Alert Level 2 or above, passengers on public buses, trains, planes, and ferries, over the age of 12, are required to wear a mask or face covering.

However, Nbus says that while drivers will be encouraging their use, they won’t be enforcing it.

The company says that it is up to passengers to keep themselves and others safe by wearing a face covering.

Those who break the rule can face a $300 infringement notice or a fine of up to a $1000 imposed by the courts.

Nelson City Council’s chair of infrastructure, Brian McGurk, says that masks will assist in managing the virus.

“Essentially this is just following medical advice, it’s a health response that will keep drivers and passengers safe.

“It can be difficult to maintain distance on public transport, and it’s important to keep the drivers safe in their workplace. If you’ve forgotten, you can use a scarf or anything just to cover the face.”

Tasman regional transport committee chair Stuart Bryant says that council would like to see residents following the new Government mandate.

“Now that it’s a government directive we are obliged to wear masks on public transport, and we’d like to see people in this region follow that as much as possible,” Stuart says.

He says he is hoping that residents will respect the directive.

“I’m hoping that people will get on board with it, especially for the safety of the bus drivers. It’s for the community benefit.”

Local support for world class cyclist from PAGE 1 cycling as a mountainbiker to improve his rugby playing fitness. A road bike has been his set of wheels for over 11 years and are the ones that took him into professional cycling. The highlight of George’s career, up until two weeks ago, was winning the Tour of California in 2017, an annual professional race where he became the first New Zealander to win the

general classification at a Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) cycling event. On the 12th of August George won the Gran Piemonte race in Italy and he’s currently in the first week of the threeweek, 3,470 km ride through France.

George is no novice when it comes to this huge race having completed his first Tour de France in 2016. This year is George’s fourth time in this race and, based on re-

cent riding, bodes well for him to ride well.

The Tour de France is a teamfocused race however, so George’s power in the saddle will be used to support and protect his Jumbo-Visma team’s lead riders, Primoz Roglic and Tom Dumoulin.

“With a guy like Primoz, he’s clearly far better than me, he’s a step above,” says George Bennett.

Brent said what George has achieved, riding at the levels

he’s riding, could be compared with someone from Argentina being allowed to come and play for the All Blacks. “That’s the level he’s competing with, the best in the world.” George, now 30 years of age is at a good age to be strong in the mountains. Couple that with his great power-to-weight ratio and he is expected to do well in this year’s race which encompasses all five of France’s mountain ranges.

Sal’s finally open after months of delays Matt McCrorie Reporter

matt@waimeaweekly.co.nz

After nearly seven months of delays, Richmond residents will finally be able to get a taste of New York, with Sal’s Pizza finally opening on Queen Street.

Operator Matt Dewar says that the months of delays have been ‘frustrating.’

“We were a couple of weeks through our initial fit out in

March, and then we got held up by the lockdown.”

After the country moved back into Alert Level 2, Matt then had to play the waiting game.

“We had to take stock of the situation and make sure that it was sensible to go ahead, we had to proceed with a bit of caution.”

With the fit-out completed and seven local staff hired, Sal’s was set to open on August 14. Then, another lock-

down, this time in Auckland on August 12.

“We just got caught with not being able to bring our Auckland staff in. We’ve got some great local staff, but because there hasn’t been a store here we needed our Auckland team to help us get set up,” Matt says.

After Auckland moved down to Alert level 2 on Sunday night, staff from Sal’s in Auckland were finally able to make it to Richmond, mean-

ing that after months of delays, Richmond’s newest pizzeria was finally able to open its doors.

“It feels like a long time coming,” “We’re relieved, and very excited to be open,” Matt says.

“A lot of people have gone through a really challenging year, and this has been the case for us, but I’m sure that will begin to fade now that we’re up and open and trading.”

Living wages for all Nelson is a great place to live and work, but that doesn’t mean people should be paid less for living in a beautiful place.

That’s why one of my top priorities is to end sunshine wages.

A recent example of this is the workers at Pak’nSave Richmond who are paid less than their counterparts at Countdown for doing the same job.

John Sylvanus Cotterell was a young surveyor employed by the New Zealand Company.

He was born Bath, England, in 1819. Cotterell arrived in Nelson, February 1842, on board the Fifeshire. He advertised his services as a surveyor and agent, opening a store selling household goods. During the months between March and July he completed surveys of the Waimea Plains. Later that year, in November, he discovered the Tophouse route to the Wairau Valley and Lake Rotoiti. Cotterell was often accompanied by his trusted Maori guide, Pikiwati.

In 1842 John Cotterell and fellow surveyor H. W. Burt established a regular boat service from Nelson to what became known as Cotterell’s Landing, sited about 150 metres north of the Pearl Creek Information Board on the Tasman Great Taste Trail. The twiceweekly ferry was Nelson’s first transport service and it meant people could avoid hours of negotiating the swampland between Rabbit Island and Nelson. Taking the ferry was a popular option for the settlers.

A small wharf allowed the boat to load and unload passengers

and goods.

By March 1843, Cotterell was surveying the Wairau for the New Zealand Company. Ngati Toa disputed the company’s claim and tried to stop the surveys by non-violent means, burning huts and evicting the survey parties.

Cotterell was part of the illfated party sent to the Wairau to deal with the well-prepared Ngati Toa. An armed conflict ensued. As a Quaker, Cotterell refused to bear arms. Several of the men fled, but Arthur Wakefield dissuaded him from fleeing, saying he would surely be shot. Cotterell surrendered to a Maori he knew, but he was seized by another and killed.

The Wairau incident was the first major confrontation between Māori and colonials since the 1840 signing of The Treaty of Waitangi, killing 22 Europeans and four Māori.

A newspaper in his hometown of Bath, England, published the following tribute: ‘We have it on the best authority that he took no part in the affray, except as an unarmed peacemaker; that during the whole of his sojourn in New Zealand, he was on the best terms with the natives; and the very last letter received from him mentions the pleasure he experi-

enced in having acquired sufficient of the native language to be able to converse with the ‘Maories’ on religious subjects.

In Mr. Sylvanus Cotterell the New Zealanders have slain one of their best friends. Indeed, we cannot but reflect with feelings of the most distressful character upon the early removal of this young man and by means too painful to contemplate. We last saw him in 1841 at the New Zealand House in London, on the eve of embarkation for that distant country. He was then in the bloom and pride of manhood - tall, strong, active and robust.

In a word, as fine a specimen of a young Englishman as we have ever remembered to have seen. At the time of his death, he wanted only a month of being 24 years of age.’

The road that now bears Cotterell’s name was the original route to Rabbit Island. Prior to 1957 when the first bridge was built, a horse and wagon was the only way to get there.

Even after the bridge was built, it was only possible to use the road at low tide. Visitors had to be aware of the tides to avoid being marooned on the island.

John S. Cotterell died 17 June, 1843 and is buried at Tuamarina cemetery near Blenheim.

Govt funding creating jobs

Matt McCrorie “I really didn’t know what to do.”

Mike Robertson remembers the moment he found out that he would be losing his job.

The former Technical Services Engineer was one of 89 who lost their jobs this year when Air New Zealand announced plans to move its regional heavy maintenance facility from Nelson.

“I struggled with the news. My family love Nelson, and I was concerned I may need to uproot my family and start again somewhere else.”

Mike had spent the last 12 years as an aircraft engineer, working to repair aircraft in Air New Zealand’s regional fleet. However, funding from central government for a Tasman District Council project has created new jobs in the region.

The programme, which is fo-

cused on removing dangerous trees around Tasman roads has employed 11 people who found themselves out of work due to the pandemic, including Mike. Mike has had to adapt his mechanical engineering to civil engineering, and has started work for Downer, who contract for the Tasman District Council. TDC transportation manager Jamie Macpherson says that it’s ‘fantastic’ that this project has been able to create jobs for locals like Mike. Jamie says that the funding from the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment and the Provincial Growth Fund has created these jobs.

“That’s money that wouldn’t have been in the system in this area otherwise,” he says.

“Without the funding, employers like Downer would not have the confidence to commit to taking on new staff.

Waimea scramble past Roncalli Jacob Page Waimea Combined needed another second half comeback and a little luck to beat Roncalli Combined 2726 in Timaru on Saturday.

Just 10 days after they needed a second half fight back to beat Marlborough Boys’ College, Waimea needed an encore performance and a missed injury time conversion to beat lowly Roncalli.

Waimea Combined trailed 19-8 at one point in the second half but managed to grab the win to move up to ninth on the ladder with two rounds to go.

Coach James Lash says the team did not get to use their attacking backline to their full extent.

“Roncalli’s scrambling defence did

really well.

“We looked the better side but there wasn’t much room for us to play our expansive game.

“We had too much lateral movement which made it easier for them to defend their line.”

James said the team still hopes to finish in the top eight.

“We are in a good spot but we just have to keep working hard.

“Timaru Boys’ this weekend won’t be easier and they’ll be targeting us after they see the score line against Roncalli.”

James praised the loose forward trio of Caleb Sproul, Eamon Sherlock and Jeen Salton.

“They were our go-to guys and helped us with our ball carries and exit plays.

Waimea Combined clung on for a 27-26 win over Roncalli Combined.

School roll projections explained In a story ‘Proposed new school may not go ahead’ published on Wednesday 26 August 2020, Waimea Weekly stated: “Tim is concerned that people are not aware of the Ministry’s projected figures which demonstrate why consideration should be given to schools other than primary…

the projected figures for Waimea Intermediate are 1165 in 2048 and for Waimea College, 3046 students in 2048.”

These numbers are indicative of the cumulative number of state school students living in the school’s catchment area, not the projected school roll itself.

Have your say and go in the draw to WIN a $50 Richmond Mall Voucher each month Frustration grows over ‘unrealistic’ wage offer: Lance Millward: Front line workers- let’s show them a little respect.

Shane Mills: It’s not just about a living wage (currently $22.10 per hour) - these workers have been fighting for a Collective Contract for literally years.

Sarah Sharp: School bus drivers are paid minimum wage & yet they carry our most vulnerable. The buses are overloaded & my daughter sometimes stands in the stairwell. All of this responsibility places on the shoulders of somebody who is not valued by their level of pay.

Minimum wage means.. “I’d pay you less if I could”.

Kyle Hedley: Yes, I agree that supermarket workers and bus drivers should be paid more especially how they worked through Alert Level 4 putting their health at risk and keeping the wheels of the economy going while, shall I say, everyone else had the right to stay at home.

And they got nothing extra.

Ross Lampert: Kyle Hedley,

waimeaweekly and www.waimeaweekly.co.nz

supermarket workers were paid 10% extra, but that ended after level 4. The companies made huge profits and can afford to make it permanent.

Dennis Goodman: I’ve commented to the Weekly, pay these workers a living wage? One of my cousins has worked at both Countdown and New World, and says Countdown pay and look

It was with great interest that some of my colleagues and I read your article “Pak’nSave workers lobby for a fair deal,” on August 20. We work at Pakn’Save and feel there is more to this story that your readers may be interested in.

We did work through lockdown which was a stressful time for everyone. The manager (separate from the store owner) was in the shop working alongside staff, asking if we were doing ok.

We had a bonus while in lockdown, cleaning was implemented in the shop, working areas, and staff room. The staff often had supplies of bottled drink to show appreciation. Screens were put between customers and staff.

We receive a Christmas bonus and there is fruit in the staffroom.

I know with the cost of living ever increasing we can all use more in our wages each week. I have worked here for three years now, and get a pay rise every year.

Just a thought...

Ross Ferguson

Richmond Community Church Just a thought and a question for you this week as we approach another Father’s Day. As someone said: “It is much easier to become a father than to be one!”

Are fathers becoming an endangered species in our society?

A fascinating and revealing TV documentary about young elephants in an African National

Park highlights what can happen when there is an absence of mature male elephant role models.

The documentary showed young bull elephants acting out of character — they were antisocial and violent, out of control—killing rhinos, stomping on cars, destroying their environment, and attacking one another for no apparent reason. Park rangers eventually discovered the reason. They found there were no older bull elephants in that area. All the old male ele-

phants were missing and had been killed or poached.

Teenage men just like elephants need a father figure. Many don’t know how to be mature males and because they have never had it modelled it will often lead to antisocial and often violent behaviour, especially in young males in society.

A jail chaplain for many years

WEDNESDAY 2 September 2020

said that the majority of men in our prisons are angry and violent because they have deep wounds, largely due to abuse, fatherlessness and rejection, and that in fact, deep down, they are really sad and lonely individuals trapped in the prison of their own minds.

The very last verse in the Old Testament starts with a challenge to the fathers to turn

their hearts to their children but also to the children to turn their hearts to their fathers. Check it out and read about the consequences for our communities and our nation. Malachi 4: 6 The book of Proverbs speaks of the righteous man who walks in integrity, His children are blessed after him. Proverbs 20: 7 There is also a promise of blessing and favour for children who honour their parents!

Happy Father’s Day!

Tractor Repairs and Spares on Appleby Highway not only has the best tractor brands in town, but it also has plenty of service and support vehicles, and a fantastic new building to display its products.

It’s been a year since Tractor Spares and Repairs Ltd first opened the doors to its new premises at 28 Appleby Highway, so during the month of September the team is celebrating their 1st birthday.

It all began back in 1996 in Blenheim, when Adrian Orchard, a fully-qualified technician, started the company as a home-based business, working out of a service vehicle.

Today, Tractor Repairs and Spares Ltd have grown to include 64 staff and 4 branches.

In 1996, the company was offered the Massey Ferguson

agency, and in the year 2000 Fendt was added. Due to commitment to quality workmanship the business grew, and in 2007 they opened a branch in Seddon. Then in 2016 they purchased TFM Tractors in Hastings and 10 years ago established the Richmond branch which was originally on Poutama Street.

TRS are the experts for tractor sales, agricultural, viticultural and horticultural machinery supplies, repairs, maintenance, air-conditioning and the servicing of new and used machinery. Their customers are

mostly wine growers, orchardists, hops growers, lifestyle block owners, sheep, beef and dairy farmers.

“We moved into our new building a year ago,” says Richmond branch manager Craig Hovenden, who has been with the company for 20 years. “To celebrate our first birthday, we’ll probably have a beer.”

“We have some prizes to give away, also. During September, as customers come in, they can put an entry into the prize box – there’s a Fendt chilly bin, Fendt doormat and a socket set to give away.‘’

It is also great for displaying their product range, with hundreds of different models of tractors available including Massey Ferguson, Fendt and Iseki brands. “We can supply the newly-launched Massey Ferguson 8S Tractors, the 3700 Massey Ferguson, and there’s an ever-increasing range of horticultural machinery.

Men over 40 with prostate cancer in the immediate family absolutely should get simple, painless annual checks from their GP’s. If the GP doesn’t offer it the men should ask for it themselves.

Max Duncan gives Richmond victory Stu Reid After a couple of draws, the Fresh Choice Richmond 1st division team took on Nelson College at Jubilee Park on Saturday determined to pick up all three points.

The game was tight right the

Richmond coach Clay Wilhelmus was very satisfied with his team’s efforts.

In the other matches played over

the weekend the club recorded 3 wins, 6 losses and a draw.

The Hothouse Foxes continue their winning ways with a 5-0 win over Nelson Suburbs, and the Tasman Auto Electrics Bogans beat Tahuna 5-1. The young Fresh Choice 2nd team lost 8-2 to Nel-

son Suburbs Seals, the Thompson Daly Chartered Accountants Thistle lads were beaten 2-0 by Golden Bay, the Global Wings Travel Hornbills went down 2-1 to Motueka, and the Sprig and Fern Upper Queen Street Masters had a 0 – 0 draw with Suburbs.

The 3 youth age teams all had losses.

The club hosts five senior games at Jubilee Park this Saturday, two at 1pm and three at 3pm.

The Fresh Choice Richmond 1st team will be playing against FC Nelson.

Dean’s Nursery - spring planting

James and Susie Dean started the nursery in 1989 on Lansdowne Road, Richmond, which has grown into a family run business meeting the needs of the retail and wholesale gardener.

They specialize in growing one to two year old New Zealand natives, exotic trees and shrubs. The plants suit lifestyle blocks, landowners and town gardens.

Their youngest son Ollie started working with his parents five years ago and last year bought the business. But dad James is still very much a part of the enterprise, staying on to work part-time.

Most of their trees and shrubs are grown on site with plants hardened to suit a wide range of conditions. They deliver to Golden Bay, Marlborough and other areas throughout New Zealand on request.

ian who spent years with his family living and working in Nashville, he’s a Grammy nominee who describes himself as a speaker, teacher, musician, and family man. He lives with his family in the Upper Moutere where his children’s maternal grandparents are from. This is where he operates his Global Ministry, but Grant has ministered in over 20 countries, mostly behind his bass guitar but not always, he says.

“I first saw a virtual choir on Youtube and was so impressed with the picture of unity and worship that it portrayed.

That first impression of the video stayed with Grant and it was Stephen Maina of the Nelson Diocese of the Angli-

can Church who original suggestion that he should create a virtual choir for The Blessing in New Zealand.

Grant looked into it further and decided that, as nobody had done one in New Zealand, it would be great to integrate the Christian community nationally for the first time in this way.

He put his feelers out into the community asking for recordings of The Blessing. He was met with mostly excitement but some trepidation and in his imagination hoped he’d receive about 30 or 40 recordings to work with.

In the end, he received about 200 video submissions and took 3 months to piece the video together. His wife Brooke

worked alongside him, as did a large number of other musicians and technicians.

“It was a huge team effort, I was only steering the ship,” says Grant.

He enlisted the help from what he says is a huge amount of world-class talent living in the Tasman region, of which there were five audio technicians, two video editors, several admins, and some cultural advisors, used on The Blessing video.

“I had to own up to my own ignorance,” says Grant.

Locals from Te Āwhina Marae, Sean Delaney, and Callum O’Leary, assisted Grant and added something deep and spiritual from Maori culture into the song.

Hot Shots gets kids into tennis Jacob Page

Father Love Steve Dunne

The hardest thing we fathers seem to be able to pass onto our children and those around us is who we are.

We manage to give over what we do, but not who we are. We pass on our trade, our opinion on life, our money and even our external strength. But the one thing needed by our children is to know who we really are on the inside.

During a time of change and crisis in my early thirties, my deepest gratitude goes to a man in his eighties. I met with him on a weekly basis. We met for prayer and discussion for two hours a week. John would father me without even realising it. We drank weak tea and ate stale biscuits. Yet during these face to face interactions I came away from those meetings feeling “heard”. I came away alive to the bigger picture of my own existence mirrored in the face of an old man. John passed on who he was.

Because I was able to trust John his masculinity, encased in a frail body, touched my insecurity and a deeper journey began to take place.

The Psalmist called it “deep calling unto deep” (Psalm 42:7) The reason most men struggle to offer this is because masculine essence was never passed onto them. Essential maleness has been in short supply for generations. We are in short supply of men who are willing to sit with younger men and show them the ropes. The reason so many of us are externally compelled by money, power and sex is not necessarily be-

cause we are bad people but because we think by obtaining these things we will deepen our inner journey. Nothing could be further from the truth.

The “gap” inside us to do the inward work or further spiritual journey can never be met by more external power, extra money or sex with someone different.

The lack of fathering so many of us have experienced is a lack of masculine energy being infused to us through relational experience. This cannot be achieved by reading books or doing a psychology degree. Only the close, safe, relational love of a father or father figure can transfer this love to us. Masculine love calls forward the younger to the further inner journey of growth.

Father love flows effortlessly when the father refuses to believe that external powers can grow him. The power is in the very place we think it could not possibly be - the father wound. Like Jesus before us, we go through the centre of our wound, the dread of the abandonment, the fear of being rejected. Through this death and resurrection process we are able to move further on the inner journey to join the flow of fatherhood that is so needed in our society.

Today could be a good day to reflect on the fathering you have given and received. Maybe like me, you need a John figure with weak tea and stale biscuits. We can learn from fathers who have gone before us, we can watch and listen to good fathers around us and we can become better fathers for tomorrow.

More than 4000 primary school children from 32 schools in the Nelson and Tasman region are getting a taste of tennis with Tennis Hot Shots.

This term, primary schools across the region are taking part in the Tennis Hot Shots (THS) schools’ programme generously sponsored in the Nelson region by Nelson Building Society, supported by Kiwisport and the Lion Foundation.

THS is the national starter

programme for New Zealand children aged five to 12..

Tennis Hot Shots Schools use a ‘learning through play’ approach, integrated with the school physical education curriculum to develop each child’s basic ball skills - hitting, throwing, catching, and fitness.

Nelson Bays Tennis Association regional coordinator Ali Telford says it is designed to give kids a fun, interactive taste of the game.

“The end goal is to give the kids some skills, have fun and use it as an activity for the rest

of their lives.

“Our end goal is to create a great activity that the whole family can participate in.”

The smaller courts, slower balls and shorter racquets allows for longer rallies.

The coaching programme offers four sessions per child, provided by a THS and Tennis New Zealand accredited coach.

The fourth session tends to be an afternoon at the club and entry into a THS competition, this also leads on to the Primary Schools Tennis Tournament in term four.

Ex Southland run machine eager to impress Jacob Page Harsh Visavadia is hoping he can add some grit the top of the Wanderers batting line-up this season.

The former Otago A batsman and part-time leg spinner is keen to help young players while keeping his chances of playing domestic cricket hopes alive.

Originally from India, Harsh has spent the last five years playing in Invercargill and Dunedin.

He scored a lot of runs for the Southland Hawke Cup team.

He got the John Wright Scholarship at Southland Institute of Technology while studying

Harsh Visavadia is set to add some toughness to the Wanderers top-order this season. a diploma in sport, recreation and exercise science.

He made 199 against South

Canterbury in 2017 and 223 against North Otago in 2018.

“I want to help the young players while I’m here,” he says.

“I want to try to help in this region with the cricket and I’ve met some of the Wanderers boys and they have a lot of talent.”

He says, while he would love to play for Nelson and even push his claims for a Central Districts call-up, he is eager to assist Wanderers in their second premier club season which begins in early October.

He hopes the warmer weather will give him a chance to score plenty of runs early in the season, while his part-time leg spinners could also play a role.

Come and meet Family First’s Bob McCoskrie and Nick Tuitasi and be informed on important issues coming up in the election in October. Copies of our popular voting guide Value Your Vote 2020 will also be made available.

Our response to the health and economic threats of COVID-19 have been especially important this year. But focusing on economics and other issues while ignoring social values will actually make society’s present problems worse in the long term, not better.

Research proves that the strength of marriage and family, along with respect for life and the protection of our most vulnerable, has a major impact on the strength of a nation: lowering the rates of child poverty, child abuse, imprisonment, mental health and the costs of welfare - and producing an ordered, civil society.

Ride the new Richmond Bus Loop Alert Level Two restrictions At the time of printing we are set to remain at Alert Level Two until midnight on Sunday 6 September.

All Council services continue to operate but with changes to limit numbers at some facilities, enable physical distancing and contact tracing. Should any further changes be needed, you can get the latest information on, our website – tasman.govt.nz, our Facebook page and the Antenno app or you can give us a call on 03 543 8400.

The new convenient bus service around Richmond is now running Monday to Saturday.

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.

Please follow the general health advice from central government as we work together in our renewed battle against Covid-19.

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.

• Keep your distance from other people in public

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.

• Wash your hands • Sneeze and cough into your elbow • Keep track of where you’ve been and who you’ve seen • Wear a face covering if you can.

Get more information on our website, tasman.govt.nz and search on “bus”.

Please note: A face covering must now be worn when using public transport.

Slip repair underway A section of the Wairoa Gorge Road, near the Lee Valley Road and River Terrace Road end is down to one lane until the overhang from a recent slip can be made safe.

There is a priority one-way system in place on this section of the road until the work is completed so please follow the signage in place, slow down and take care.

Flush only the three P’s!

We’ve cleared 17 clothing blockages from wastewater pump stations around Māpua in the last 11 months. Men’s undies, women's undies and women's shirts have been removed and costs are running at over $3,500 so far. It’s a shame we actually have to say it but – there’s no place for clothing in the toilet. Always flush only the three Ps – pee, poo and paper.

No wet wipes, no face masks and certainly NO UNDIES!!

Keep rag monsters and fatbergs out of our pipes!

Only flush the 3 Ps! Pee, poo and paper.

Water safety consultation extended Submissions are now open until Friday 2 October.

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

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

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

The in-person public meetings were cancelled due to the Alert Level Two restrictions on gatherings and physical distancing.

A replacement session will take place via Zoom video conferencing on Wednesday 16 September from 4.30 pm.

Access details are available on the website.

How to have your say: • Email your submission info@tasman.govt.nz with ‘Water Safety Consultation’ in the subject line.

2 SEPTEMBER 2020

No mixed recycling processed from 14 – 18 September Due to essential maintenance at the recycling processing plant, any mixed recycling (plastic, paper, cans) put out for collection 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 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.

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 Join us for the last community planting day of the season on the Waimea Inlet.

• Sunday 6 September, 9.00 am – 1.00 pm, Hunter Brown Reserve, Rough Island.

Please note: The event planned for 13 September has been cancelled.

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.

• Head to tasman.govt.nz/feedback to submit your feedback online.

Tasman District Council invites submissions by 25 September on a proposal to review the Local Alcohol Policy.

The Local Alcohol Policy (LAP) has been in force since 14 March 2015 and must be reviewed prior to 14 March 2021 to remain in force. The most significant impact of the LAP is to limit the hours that Licensed Premises may trade, compared to the default national maximum trading hours permitted by the Sale and Supply of Alcohol Act 2012. The Council has proposed that no change is made to the existing LAP. You can read the full statement of proposal online at tasman.govt.nz/feedback or see a hard copy at all Council offices and libraries.

You can: • Email your submission to info@tasman.govt.nz with ‘Local Alcohol Policy Consultation’ in the subject line.

• Head to tasman.govt.nz/feedback to submit your feedback online.

• Post your submission to “Local Alcohol Policy Consultation”, Tasman District Council, 189 Queen Street, Private Bag 4, Richmond 7050.

Submissions close Friday 25 September 2020.

• Post your submission to 'Water Safety Consultation', Tasman District Council, 189 Queen Street, Private Bag 4, Richmond 7050.

If it needs fixing, call Council first If you notice something that needs fixing or work that needs to be done around the district, please call us and let us know. You should only call our contractors directly if it’s related to a specific project and they are listed as the point of contact. Otherwise we are available to help 24/7, just call us on 03 543 8400. Another quick and easy way to report an issue is to use the Antenno app. Simply open Antenno, go to 'your reports' and tell us about the issue. Download Antenno for free from your app store.
