School gains support to remain open Phillip Rollo Salisbury School will not reach its centenary in 2014 if the Ministry of Education’s plans to close the school by the end of the year are met.

The Ministry of Education is planning to close four residential schools throughout New Zealand, two for students with intellectual impairment and two for students with “extremely challenging” behaviour.

The move will instead favour a wraparound service which puts all of the students back into mainstream schools.

Salisbury School will have until the middle of June to put in a submission as to why it should remain and the support from around the community has already been very high, says Salisbury School principal Brenda Ellis.

Brenda is urging the public to support the school via a petition on its website. The school was first opened in 1914 and she hoped it would make it well past its 100 year birthday. “Absolutely. There’s

thousands of girls and their families that we have helped throughout that time. We think there is a very strong case for continuation,” she says.

A final decision will be made in October.

The move could force Salisbury School’s 44 intellectually disabled students to find new schools and will also leave its 70 staff members without work.

The Ministry of Education believe the change will give support to twice as many intellectually impaired students around New Zealand. It will also dramatically reduce the cost per student to keep them in residential housed schools, a figure it estimates to be between $70,000 to $90,000 per individual per year.

Brenda says the news came as a surprise. She learnt the school’s fate at a meeting with the Ministry of Education in Wellington earlier in the month. “We didn’t know what the meeting was going to contain. There had been some SEE PAGE 4

Shades secure sporting goods Richmond School’s new sunnies have won them $1000 worth of sporting equipment.

The sunglasses kept their eyes away from the exposure of potentially harmful UV rays and also helped them win Rebel Sport vouchers thanks to Visique’s Back to School campaign.

Richmond School embraced Visique’s nationwide campaign which launched at the start of the school term in February and involved Visique handing out free sunnies to five year old new entrants.

All of the schools went into the draw to win. Richmond was one of five.

“At times. I live in a council flat but I’m not out in the community enough to really know.”

“Yeah they’re not bad. They have a hell of a job to do. But it’s probably easy to say things they don’t do well, like rates for example.”

Buses stop traffic in Croucher Street Tasman District Council says it will not create a new bus park at Sundial Sq despite overlapping bus schedules meaning traffic can be backed up for up to several minutes as one bus waits in the middle of the road.

The latest incident on Tuesday morning saw as many as six cars stuck behind a bus that had to wait for another bus to get out of the sole bus park at Sundial Sq. There are two end-to-end car parks behind the one bus stop, which would be big enough to house another bus park.

But TDC says buses only occupy the space for several minutes a day and it does not want to lose two more car parks in the centre of town. It says it would rather Suburban Bus Lines – which operates the buses – fixed its scheduling to make sure there is no cross over.

Meanwhile fed-up car drivers have taken to driving through the Richmond Mall or Sundial Sq car parks when a bus clogs the Croucher St lane between Queen St and McGlashen Ave. The actions have prompted Richmond Mall to review

its safety features around the area, according to its manager David Hill. “The vast majority of people that use that car park are safe but it’s the few that are irate after being delayed by the buses that are causing us concern. I’ve seen it happen myself and we are considering putting in speed humps to make sure our car park is safe.”

A representative from SBL was unavailable for comment but TDC transport manager Gary Clark says he met with SBL several weeks ago over the issue and he told them council would not look at another park.

“We assisted SBL in providing a park for them in a location they wanted one and we did that in good faith. Now they’ve come back to us saying they want another one, and a space on Queen St. We’re not prepared to lose two more car parks in a prime location so they can sit there unused for most of the day because they can’t sort their scheduling out. We see this as a scheduling problem. The drivers can communicate, they should make sure the space is clear for the next bus.”

Ministry to close school FROM PAGE 1 rumblings over the past months that change was on the cards.”

Salisbury School usually has a roll of 80 students, but that number was down to just 44 for 2012. There are also 22 students in the school’s outreach service.

The outreach service is part of the

Ministry of Education’s wraparound service where the school works with students in mainstream settings.

But Brenda questioned the Ministry of Education’s decision to close the school, saying it must survive to provide for the students that could not cope in mainstream environments. “For some students that is extremely difficult.”

Council back-pedal on cycle trail funding Phillip Rollo Funding has been put back on the table as council pushes the completion of the Great Taste Cycle Trail.

Tasman District Council removed funding from its draft plan last month, but has now u-turned on that decision and decided to fund the trail to the finish.

A fully completed loop would put the cycle trail on the forefront of national advertising, making it an appealing destination for international tourists, says Tasman District mayor Richard Kempthorne.

It will come at a $4 million cost that coun-

cil deems beneficial for the community.

The majority of that cash will come from less work being done on Saxton Field, although $500,000 will be expected to be raised from the Nelson Tasman Cycle Trails Trust and from the community.

Richard also confirmed council would be reviewing its funding for Nelson Tasman Tourism. Council currently provides $404,000 to Nelson Tasman Tourism. $314,000 goes into the running costs of information centres while $90,000 is put into destination marketing.

Progress is occurring very quickly on the trail and its current stage is the construc-

tion of a suspension bridge over the Wairoa River.

The $265,000 bridge is a key connection in the Great Taste Trail, which for this section, will link Richmond and Brightwater between Pugh Rd and Bryant Rd. It is hoped the opening of the trail and the bridge can be arranged with the Brightwater community on July 8.

Two nine metre high towers have been constructed by Edifice Ltd with the foundations constructed by Kidsons Construction.

Stage one, between Richmond and both Wakefield and Mapua, is expected to be

finished by the end of the year. The entire loop could take seven years to complete.

The New Zealand Transport Agency has capped funding for roading maintenance, meaning there was less cash in the engineering budget.

That was the initial reason for council to pull the funding for the trail.

But Nelson City Council’s decision to do less work on the Saxton Field development has now freed up space for TDC to shift their efforts back onto the cycle trail.

A second Bridge across the Waimea River at the western end of lower Queen St will be out to tender in the coming weeks.

Coral Bowe and Bev Moffat have retired after 63 years between them at Hoddy’s Orchard in Hope. Photo: Phillip Rollo.

End of the line for apple graders Bev Moffat and Coral Bowe know how to spot a bad apple – it has been their job for the past 30 years.

But last week, the pair called it a day and have retired from more than a quarter of a century at Hoddy’s Orchard.

Coral started life at Hoddy’s Orchard in 1980.

Bev followed suit in 1981, when the shed was built. The two ladies had previously worked together at Richmond Packhouse before making the shift south.

Coral, who is a Richmond resident, spent her first year out on the orchard. When the shed was constructed she moved onto packing, the same job Bev, who lives in Hope, had when she was employed.

It wasn’t long before Bev moved onto quality

control, a job that involves checking all of the fruit in the boxes, making sure they are of a high standard, and then onto grading.

Coral was quick to move into the grading role as well, and the pair ended up working the same job on different days of the week. They only saw each other when someone was sick and one of them had to cover.

Coral jokes that Bev is old enough to retire, but she was spending the next few months on holiday. “I’m a few times grandma, so I’m going to try get out and do things,” she says.

Bev says she was going to miss all of the staff. “We’ll miss the workers.

We’ve made some wonderful friends.”

The Hoddy’s Orchard end of year party, held on Friday, was their final farewell.

Staff take 10,000 steps a day Phillip Rollo The Global Coportate Challenge is a walk in the park for council staff.

The Global Corporate Challenge is believed to be the world’s largest workplace health and wellness program with more than 180,000 people taking part around the world.

TDC have entered nine teams of seven that must walk 10,000 steps a day and is tracked by their own person GPS. The challenge encourages workplaces around the world to live healthier lives but also tests teamwork, reduces absenteeism, and creates a culture of resilience across entire organisations.

Tara Cater, team leader for one of the TDC groups, says general day-to-day activities, like walking around the office, accounts for 4000 steps. So council staff have to make the extra effort to get up to the 10,000 mark.

On the event’s website, you can virtually track your distance. TDC has currently reached Birmingham after starting its journey in London.

Tara says the team has enjoyed seeing how far they are actually walking everyday and the competition around the office has become quite fierce.

Tara was not aware of other businesses around Richmond that were also taking part but encouraged them to enter in the coming years. The walk officially started on May 24.

Diane Penn, Paula Cater, Francie Wafer and Tara Cater have been walking 10,000 steps a day as part of the Global Corporate Challenge.

Participation was high, but not high enough as Waimea College fell short of reaching the world record for highest participated robot dance.

Last Friday, the world record attempt, organised by the Tasman Youth Council, lured a group of 492 students hoping to stamp their name into the Guinness World Record Book.

However, Waimea College fell fractionally short of the current Guinness World Record of 525 dancing robots, set in 2010 by Adlai E Stevenson High School in the United States.

Students remained upbeat despite the failure, and took to the stage for karaoke competitions instead.

From My Desk Ava Murphy, 4, uses the new computer at First Years. Photo: Phillip Rollo.

Technology computes with local preschool A Richmond preschool is the latest education centre to push technology.

First Years Richmond received a grant to install a computer that will give children as young as four years old their first taste of IT. The computer was donated by the New Zealand Childcare Association.

Karina Rasmussen, centre manager, says the computer will integrate more children into IT. “It’s the future for children. They need to be involved in it and learning it. Computer wise this is first for us, we do a little bit with digital cameras too.”

The most popular task with the children was the educational games on offer. The computer does not have internet but instead has games installed that teach basic motor skills, like left and rights, to the children.

“If you’re an adult and you haven’t used a computer, well it can be quite daunting. So we want children to have all of those basic skills that they can take with them onto school or even at home.”

Another month is nearing it’s end, and with all the winter sports in full swing I enjoy seeing many of Nelson’s youth on Saturdays heading to our cafes for a warming hot chocolate after a full-on morning playing sport. Big smiles from all, whether the teams have been victorious in winning or successful in playing together as a team. I enjoy overhearing some of the stories of superb goals being scored and the perfect tackle with mud smeared over the uniforms being the trophy!

Feeling the warm ambience as you walk through the doors of Columbus Café, in the heart of Fashion Island, you will be greeted by Trudi and Ian Brassfield.

Choosing to sit in the courtyard surrounded by phoenix palms or inside at either your café style table and chairs or to relax in chocolate leather tub chairs, you can view the vast array of savoury and sweet options like paninis, wraps, quiches, pastries, cakes and slices, enticing you from the glass display unit or choose from the menu for the kitchen to prepare.

At Columbus Café, they ensure that the coffees are always freshly roasted, freshly ground and freshly brewed, and you can ensure that you will be served by experienced, friendly and knowledgeable staff who enjoy sharing the enjoyment of great coffee and food in a relaxing environment.

Have a fantastic week, and I look forward to seeing you at our Fashion Island.

Quitting smoking has never been so easy. Several Richmond stores and health providers are right on hand, offering assistance, advice and support to make becoming smoke free easier and allow you to experience the benefits of a smokefree lifestyle.

More than 80 per cent of New Zealand is smoke free, with the hope that in the next decade the number of smokers will continue to decrease.

Not only does being a non-smoker have proven health benefits and improve your quality of life, there is the financial impact that being a smoker takes on you and your family. Parents who are smokers are also more likely to pass the habit and health risks on to their children.

Join the Smokefree movement and be a part of the majority of New Zealanders working towards making our country better. You were born smoke free; make a change for the better in your life and the lives of those around you.

In the cold winter months, you won’t have to exclude yourself from social events to duck outside to stifle a craving.

Unichem Richmond Mall Pharmacy are offering a free consultation in store to get a prescription for Nicotine Replacement Therapy. As part of the drive to make New Zealand Smoke Free by 2025, Unichem Richmond Mall Pharmacy’s free consultations can determine what dosage is necessary for each individual to quit. You will be provided with a Quit Card, a course of gum, patches or lozenges to give you the best chance of quitting and staying smoke free.

The friendly team of GPs at Washbourn Medical Centre is on hand to offer advice, support and guidance through the process of quitting smoking. Make an appointment today to discuss what options are available and which products will suit you best.

If you’re looking for an alternative method, drop into Health 2000. The friendly team of girls is more than happy to give advice and offer suggestions of natural ways to cope with the withdrawal symptoms.

Tasman Medical Centre are running a children’s colouring competition to support Smokefree, so call into the

There are benefits of being smoke free that you may not even have considered. Non-smokers are more likely to be considered for job prospects and on rental applications. Cars that haven’t been smoked in are more desirable on the second hand market.

If you have wanted to quit but can’t find the right time or method, visit Richmond Mall and look out for the stalls and displays to find the methods available to make the process hassle free and rewarding.

The best time to quit is now.

Head Flashing: One piece combined cavity closure and head flashing.

Flashman reduces the builder’s cost of ordering, measuring, supplying, fitting, plastering and painting that are necessary with any flashing system; making Flashman either highly cost competitive or cheaper than common but inferior sealant reliant system.

With plastering systems the so called PVC “flashings” (actually mouldings to allow screed lines for the even application of the plaster) are buried below the plaster making it impossible for any water that penetrates the paint system to escape.

The designers of the Flashman system say this is against every known principle of flashing practice. Flashings are created at a junction where water will inevitably penetrate. Flashings purposefully allow water penetration but are designed to allow that water to escape. Monolithic (seamless look) plaster systems do not achieve this basic function of allowing water to escape, yet these paint and sealant reliant methods still exist and appear in the NZ Building Code.

Jamb Flashman: Provides unparalleled weather tightness security at the window or door cladding junction.

Wanderers school Collingwood in Grade 5 Wanderers Titans continued its winning way when it overpowered Collingwood Area School 33–12 in the Grade 5 game played at Saxton Stadium on Saturday.

Wanderers have swept all before them as they have accumulated 161 goals for and have only 69 against so far this season. IThe team’s efforts have earned them promotion to Grade 4, with the opening game set for June 9.

Collingwood Area School have entered the Nelson Centre competition, having previously played in the Golden Bay competition. It is a huge commitment for the two teams considering the four hour round trip that is involved.

The B team is doing exceedingly well, having won the first round of the Collegiate 5 grade. They have amassed 126 goals for while conceding only 58.

According to coach Paula Beck, Saturday’s game was not their best one, however there were some enterprising passages of play and a number of stand out individual performances.

Collingwood’s defence toiled against the strong offensive line up of Wanderers. The Robinson sisters – Sarah and Amy had their work cut out for them as they fought to contain the accurate shooting of Marie James who was receiving an abundance of ball from her feeders.

Wolves beat Rabbits Ben Cooper

Unbeaten streak ends Taylor’s Contracting Wanderers’ unbeaten streak in the Car Company division two competition has come to a crashing hault.

Wanderers and Murchison met in last year’s final and came into this clash without a loss to its name. Murchison had a slight edge on the standings after Wanderers drew with Stoke earlier in the month.

But it was Wanderers that started the game more spritely. Blinside Matt

Keeble jumped onto a loose ball in the in-goal area to score the opening try. Murchison hit back before Stacey Lines powered his way over to head into the break with a 12-10 lead.

Richard Bolitho and Reece Horncastle were two of the side’s top performers.

Murchison scored its second try 15 minutes into the second half to take a two point lead.

The scoreline stayed at 12-10 throughout the game to give Murchison the win.

On a cold winter’s night in front of a large and parochial crowd at Wanderers Sports Club in Brightwater, the Wanderers Wolves pulled off what can only be described as an impressive turnaround of form in a very short space of time and also the upset of the TRL Bin Inn Cup competition so far.

Only five weeks previously, the competition leading Richmond Rabbits team handed out a humbling 64-0 defeat to the Wolves and the Rabbits may have come into the game expecting more of the same.

It was soon evident that this would not prove to be the case. After sustaining continued pressure on its own goal line for most of the first 10 minutes, a determined Wolves side worked their way downfield and opened the scoring on their first opportunity in the opposition 20 metres with barnstorming centre Joe Collins crashing over from short range after some slick build up work.

Ten minutes later the Wolves found themselves in the same position and attacked the same side again with a superb pass from hard running second rower Matt Easton setting up James McDonald for his first try in Wolves colours.

The Rabbits came back hard, turning defense into offense, and when the Wolves were forced to kick early in the tackle count, impressive fullback Cam Salton returned it with interest, beating three players on his way to scoring a superb solo effort from 60 metres out. The conversion took the score to 12-6.

Ill discipline cost the Rabbits side towards the end of the second half, with a number of high tackles resulting in penalties which the incumbent Tasman Titans standoff and sharpshooter Hayden Smith converted to points to take the score into the break with the Wolves ahead 16-6.

Whatever coach Phil Tavite said at the half time break must’ve fired the Rabbits up as they came out with venom, achieving back to back sets of six from the kickoff resulting in a try to tireless loose forward Johnny Delore.

However the Wolves struck back immediately. A mistake from the kickoff resulting in a scrum 10m out from the Rabbits goal

line. Loose forward Dan Minogue took full advantage of the opportunity, breaking off the back of the scrum and beating two players to dot down.

The two teams traded blows (figuratively speaking) over the next 15 minutes with Lucas Bennett crossing for the Rabbits and Joe scoring his second as momentum swung back and forth and the crowd’s excitement built.

Making a strong return from injury and leading well from the front, Rabbits captain Deon Charles scored to close the gap to eight and the game was right in the balance.

When the Wolves’ halfback, and one of the best performers on the field, Josh McMillan cut a scything run through the Rabbits backline to set up a long range try for Hayden to take the score to 32-20 it looked like the Wolves might pull off a huge upset.

But the game wasn’t over yet.

With eight minutes to go Cam scored his second of the night to close within six points and ensure this battle would go right down to the wire. Nails were getting shorter on the sidelines and the yells louder as sides traded possession, both eager to close out the win. The Rabbits had the best of the attacking chances in the final stages with only some desperate Wolves defence shutting out attack after attack.

This whistle blew for the final time and a massive cheer went up all round the ground as the Wolves closed out deserved winners of a hard fought battle 32-28.

Particularly poignant was a guard of honor formed by the Wanderers A and B rugby teams as the Wolves left the field, a true sign of respect from the club that has welcomed rugby league with open arms.

Wolves coach Joe Kiriona credited their win in the most part to the dominant defensive display in the first half. “We’ve worked really hard both on fitness and our defensive patterns over the last month and it’s really starting to pay off. We feel like we’re improving every game and that’s what’s important to us,” he says.

With two consecutive wins on the board for the first time this season, the Wanderers Wolves will be looking to continue their good form against last year’s grand final winners the Stoke Cobras when they arrive in Brightwater. Kick off is at 3pm.

Two wins in a week for Waimea

Scott “Macka” McKenzie

Josh Rutledge’s 22 point haul has seen Star & Garter Waimea Old Boys secure a vital four competition points.

You wouldn’t have thought Waimea Old Boys were playing its third game in a week after the way they started on Saturday. The red and whites climbed into a 13 point lead after just eight minutes of play when Josh

nailed two early penilaties and converted Dan Hytongue’s try.

After that though Waimea Old Boys started to loosen up and gifted New World Huia an intercept try five minutes later.

At that stage Waimea Old Boys were completely dominating all facets of the match and Sam Prattley in particular was causing plenty of carnage. But another five minutes went by and Waimea Old Boys happened

to gift Huia another seven pointer.

Waimea went into the halftime break with a 22-14 lead.

The second half saw Josh continuing his tally from all parts of Sports Park Motueka. With the lineout ball getting taken and forward park going forward this gave pivot Carl Smith plenty of time to plug the corners. That, in turn, was also giving James Lowe that extra space to free his legs.

With Waimea now leading 25-14, the side was looking pretty confident.

Huia kept crawling back, and with some sharp backs moves from broken play, spilt Waimea’s defence to score in the corner and really put some pressure on.

But Kerry O’Conner made sure of the victory, scoring late in the game to seal the 32-19 victory. It came on the back of a win over Stoke midweek.

WOB Women edge Huia, stay top of table

Stacey Davis

Halfway through the second round of the competition, the Star & Garter Waimea Old Boys Women’s team were confident it could carry on its unbeaten start to the season when they met Huia at Sports Park Motueka on Saturday.

It was a very slow start to the game for Waimea Old Boys as the team struggled to find structure. It took them 20 minutes before first five Penny Stickney dotted over the line for the first points in the match, before converting her own try.

Not long after Huia replied with a try of its own. But

Waimea Old Boys didn’t hesitate following the reply and it was the hard working Charna Thompson who was the next to cross the chalk.

Huia’s backline seemed to dominate for most of the first half, sliding through the Waimea defence to score. It was back and forward between the two teams with Aleisha Hart adding to her try tally for the season and Huia’s backline again looking very slick.

The half was ended by a good try to replacement hooker Natalie Waite to put Waimea Old Boys ahead 22-17.

Some stern words were spoken to the Waimea side from the coaches to encourage the girls and pick up their sec-

ond half efforts.

Unfortunately Waimea conceded two tries early in the second half to put Huia ahead by ten. Finally the Waimea girls responded with a well deserved try to Tash Kara.

Tash’s enthusiasm at halfback soon got the team firing and a refreshed Anna Bradley came back onto the field for a storming 40 metre run to off load to Natalie for her second try of the match. Waimea finally found their rhythm with more hard earned tries to flanker Kelly Stanford and prop Steph Mitchell.

The 44-29 victory stretches Waimea Old Boys’ perfect start to the season.
