Queen St Prime Minister has good news for families footpaths one-way traffic Simon Bloomberg

Simon Bloomberg Reporter

simon@waimeaweekly.co.nz

Pedestrians are feeling the pinch on Queen St with new construction barriers and advertising signs transforming the footpaths into a slalom course that’s so tricky in places that there’s not enough room for two people to pass. And it’s even worse for people pushing prams or driving mobility scooters with the footpath width reduced to just 1.2m outside some businesses in the construction zone between McIndoe Pl and Cambridge St. That’s considerably less than the minimum width of footpath between a sign and building of two metres required by the Tasman District Council’s regulations. “I crashed into it with my stroller,” Joss Cumming says. “I couldn’t get around it – it’s dangerous.” AMI employee Neville Simpson had a near miss with a mobility scooter on one of the new bottlenecks and says something needs to be done to eliminate the danger. “A mobility scooter came through

The children at Champion Kids Pre-school in Richmond were oblivious to all the fuss, but it was a big day at the centre on Tuesday as Prime Minister Bill English arrived to announce the National Party’s latest election sweetener for families. Bill chose the new early childhood education centre on Champion Rd to reveal some new policies to help young mothers and families, including extending paid parental leave by four weeks over the next two years. Free dental checks and treatment for pregnant women and new mums, and allowing both parents to take paid parental leave at the same time, were also part of the package Bill announced from a toy microwave cabinet that doubled as a rostrum. Although the parents and teachers were obviously excited about the PM’s visit, and were pleased with the new familyfriendly policies, it was business as usual for the pre-school’s 45 children. “I told them that we had Prime Minister Bill English helps Macie Colvin walk across the beam in the play- a very important visitor ground during his visit to Champion Kids on Tuesday.

the Prime Minister, but the children didn’t really know what it was all about,” Champion Kids co-owner Hana Taylor says. “I think all the teachers and parents are more excited about it – it’s an amazing opportunity for their children to meet the Prime Minister.” One mum, Laura Tibbs, even made a special effort by finding a pair of National Party-themed blue shoes and bow tie for her daughter Harper to wear for the special occasion. “Harper doesn’t know what’s going on but I think it’s cool that they chose Champion Kids for this announcement,” Laura says. The PM also seemed to be excited about the visit, and, as expected from a man with 11 brothers and sisters and six children of his own, wasn’t fazed by 45 under-twos running around all over the place. “I thought he was lovely,” Hana says. “He took time to speak to all the parents and teachers and was very relaxed and natural with the kids. “It felt like he was enjoying himself too. You don’t see that side of him when you see him on TV.”

Queen St footpaths one-way traffic FROM PAGE 1 and we had to get out of the road in a hurry,” Neville says. “Someone said ‘you’re driving on the wrong side of the footpath’ but the lady said, ‘there’s no room, there’s only one side’ and she was right. “Even when you are walking on the footpath it’s a problem. “There’s not a lot of room between the buildings and signs and the barriers with their concrete footings.” Although many retailers are leaving their signs out on the footpath, others have removed them or placed them in their doorways to make room for pedestrians. “We brought our sign in because we wanted to make Pedestrians squeeze past a sign and rubbish bin on the footpath on Queen St last room for people,” SPCA store manager Sue Naysmith week.

says. “It’s just not on to leave them out.” Adrian Bradley of Adrian’s Barbershop has also repositioned his sign inside the entranceway to his shop to make room for pedestrians. “As soon as those barriers went up I pulled the sign in,” Adrian says. “It’s common sense.” Copyart’s Karyn Thomas says they have also “pulled our sign off the footpath in the meantime” although she appreciates that businesses need to do everything they can to attract customers. She thinks it’s unlikely that shop owners are being inconsiderate by leaving their signs on the footpath, and says they just probably don’t realise they are creating a problem. Richmond Unlimited chair-

ginning

person Marina Buonocore agrees there is a problem and says she plans to ask their members to think about repositioning their footpath signs during the construction. “I haven’t had any complaints but it’s obviously an issue and people need to be considerate,’ Marina says. “I’ll send out an email to all our members to be considerate and look at moving signs off the footpath if they are in the construction area.” Tasman District Council’s Richard Liddicoat says they are also planning to make retailers aware of the problem in the construction zone and ask them to consider moving the signs. Richard says it is a temporary situation and pedestrians also needed to be patient.

Link approved Andrew Board The Southern Link project has been approved and work will begin within three years, Prime Minister Bill English announced on Tuesday. The controversial road, which is proposed to run from St Vincent St to Whakatu Drive near the Beatson Rd roundabout, has been the subject of a business case study by the New Zealand Transport Agency since 2015. Nelson MP Nick Smith says the road met the requirements to proceed and work will begin within three years, if National is re-elected. Smith says, “the Southern Link Highway is critical to Nelson’s future in providing the efficient connection between the region, the city and the port. It also provides the exciting opportunity to transform our beautiful waterfront into a boulevard for walking and cycling.” The cost of the project has skyrocketed from an estimated $45 million in 2004, to up to $135 million. Smith says that’s due to “greater abatement” on St Vincent St and better integration with the inner city roading network. The previous attempt at building the Southern Link was canned in 2004 when the En-

Smith says new rules mean the project is unlikely to face the Environment Court. “The government, and myself as minister, have rewritten the law such that this project is more likely to go to a board of inquiry. We had similar projects like Waterview in Auckland and Transmission Gully in Wellington that were not able to be consented under the old system and both have been consented under the board of inquiry process. That gives me confidence here,” he says. Progress Nelson-Tasman chair Craig Dennis, who has been

campaigning for the Southern Link, was thrilled with the news. “We are very pleased that National have committed to building this within the next three years. It’s a huge piece of the jigsaw that’s needed for this region to unlock its potential.” Asked about the impact on the Victory community, Smith says the project should be viewed in a regional context, not one community. “My commitment to the Victory community is to ensure that they are engaged on the detail so that we can do a very professional job of this.”

Volunteer stalwarts Judene Edgar Des Henry and Allan Palmer are testament to the fact that a lot can be achieved if you’re prepared to roll your sleeves up and get stuck in. Recipients of this years’ Tasman District Council community awards for outstanding community service, Mayor Richard Kempthorne says it’s important to be able to recognize the impact that volunteers have on the entire community. Shifting to Richmond in 1997, Des immediately set to clearing Old Man’s Beard, banana passionfruit and blackberry from the neighbouring banks of Jimmy Lee Creek. “Initially it was evenings and weekends, but when I retired I worked full-time with the Council and Keep Richmond Beautiful clearing weeds, trapping and planting,” he says. Des is particularly proud of the pest management and trapping programme, as well as the wheelchair-accessible feeding station and bird hide that was opened in 2010. “You can see the relationship between the reduction in pests and the increase in bird life.” Unfortunately, in December 2011, much of his work was destroyed in the rain and consequent landslides, but undeterred Des was back up there with his colleagues rebuilding

and improving on what was there before. “I’ve planted a heck of a lot of my own plantings, but lots of people help,” he says humbly.

Former dairy farmer Allan also credits the work of others as being critical to the success of Higgins Heritage Park. “We all share the passion of remembering and showing locals and visitors alike how things used to be done in Nelson,” he says. When Allan left the farm he didn’t have a clearance sale, instead he brought all of his machinery and equipment along with him to, what was then, Pigeon Valley Steam Museum. And from there, 20 years ago, the transformation com-

menced to what is now Higgins Heritage Park. Allan quickly identified the need to establish a long-term model for the financial sustainability of the museum, and worked to create a successful partnership with like-minded clubs and groups. First on board was the Rover Car Club, who were soon joined by the Nelson Vintage Engine and Machinery Club, Army Group Centre, Historic Transport Museum and, more recently, the Ray Win collection of cars and speedway motorcycles. “We run on a shoestring, but we’ve created a home where we all share in the costs of maintenance and on-going upkeep.” His other major project has been the ‘Harry Holmwood Memorial Shed’, which displays Harry’s exhibits from the Paton Rock Vintage Machinery and Steam Museum that were gifted by the Holmwood family upon his death. “Over the past three years it’s been a labour of love of mine to bring together what I promised to Harry and the family.” “It was such a tremendous boost to the steam museum.” But Allan doesn’t have time to rest on his laurels, he’s busy preparing for this Sunday’s ‘On Steam’ and the Classic and Collectible Car show, which will be open to the public from 10am to 3pm.

Fund-raiser for Katy Friends of Katy Cobb will be holding a fundraiser in the Brightwater Community Hall this Saturday to help pay for her cancer treatment at a clinic in Germany. Katy Cobb, 32, was diagnosed with cervical cancer in March 2015 and underwent chemotherapy and radiation in Brisbane to try and cure the disease. Unfortunately, the treatment was unsuccessful and now Katy is seeking further treatment at a clinic in Germany. One of her friends, Marianne Hart-Biggs, says it’s a desperate time for Katy who is “showing an amazing will to live” and so they are raising funds to help her pay for the treatment. The fund-raiser will be held from 9am to 1pm and include a children’s activity zone, bouncy castle, face painting, pony rides, a cake stall, refreshments and raffles. Entry to the kids zone costs $5. Marianne says donations for the raffle table and baking for the cake stall will be welcome. For more information contact Marianne on 021 110 4078 or email blackcabnelson@gmail.com.

Fresh faces for fire service Andrew Board Journalist

andrew@nelsonweekly.co.nz

Four new faces have been recruited to the Nelson Fire Service, including three women. Until the new intake was accepted in April, the Nelson paid brigade didn’t have any female firefighters. Nelson Fire station chief Des Irving says the recruits have brought a fresh wave of enthusiasm to the station. “It’s all about diversity, it brings strength to the organisation. Part of that is different ethnic or gender diversity, people from different backgrounds look at problems differently.” Of the 37 paid staff at the Nelson Station, 34 are men. Cath Mulalley, Tom Bate, Karen Peters and Rochelle Hailwood are the four new firefighters for Nelson, although not all are new to fighting fires. Cath worked as a firefighter in London for 15 years before emigrating to Nelson, Rochelle was in the army for ten years, the last three of those spent in the Army fire brigade, while Tom and Karen have volunteered in brigades around Nelson before becoming

Cath says she was away from the fire service for about ten years, between London and Nelson, but she says she’s slotted right back in. “My daughter is now five and at school so it was the perfect time to get back into the workforce and this was a known entity

for me.” Rochelle worked with the Fire Service in Rotorua and Tauranga before moving to Nelson. Since arriving here in April she’s been involved in two big fires, one at Ngawhatu and a house fire in Stoke, where one man was killed. She says both were similar jobs

from a firefighting point of view but knowing that a deceased person was in the house was “weird”. “I’d never come across a burnt body before so that was a bit different. I didn’t know what I was looking for and they were hoarders as well, so we were digging to try and find them which was a bit

different.” Karen came to the fire service after working as a jailer at the Nelson Police Station for a decade. She says it was time for a change and she’s loving her new job. “I was a fire volunteer and really enjoyed it so I decided to change over. It was hard yakka to get in but it was worth it.” Former Nayland College student Tom was a youth group teacher and volunteer firefighter before making it his career. He says it wasn’t always his dream job but helping save the historic Marsden House Funeral Home as a volunteer firefighter last year made him want to pursue it. “I thought ‘that would be pretty cool to do as a job’ and it went from there. Now I love it, it’s one big family really.” Des says he’s keen for the Nelson station to reflect the community they represent as much as possible. “We’ve developed a strategy of bringing diversity as well as mixing new recruits with seasoned firefighters.” Des says anyone thinking about a career in firefighting, or volunteering at one of the region’s brigades, should visit fireandemergency.nz

UEEN STREET

What you need to know We’re now working across two stages to try to get work done faster. Speed is our key focus. Work is well underway in Stage 2 and Downer has now moved into Stage 3 as well. This is a change from the way we originally said the work would be carried out. Working across two stages is a more efficient way to progress the infrastructure replacements and allows Downer to work faster. Unfortunately, the trade-off is having to close off a longer section of the street. Downer will continue night work on the footpaths and work Saturdays where practicable.

Stage 3 progress

Key things to remember:

The small section of Stage 3 past Sundial Square will remain open as long as possible. Although Cambridge Street is officially part of Stage 3, Downer will reopen access from Cambridge Street within a month of the Stage 2 Opening. Vehicle access will be restored as soon as possible.

• The footpaths remain open with access to all shops and there is plenty of parking • The road is closed to vehicles between Noel Leemings’ temporary carpark entrance to past Sundial Square. • Access in and out via Croucher Street (Sundial Square) and Cambridge Street is closed.

• Stage 2 (Noel Leemings’ temporary carpark entrance to Cambridge Street) is scheduled for completion in lateSeptember. • Stage 3 (Cambridge Street up to ASB Bank) is scheduled for completion in late-November, however the Cambridge Street intersection will open earlier. Stage 2 progress The underground services have been replaced and the road construction is underway. Footpaths and streetscaping will follow.

McGazzaland coming to Wakefield Andrew Board When Kelly McGarry learnt to do tricks on his BMX he had to make his own jumps in the trees behind the Wakefield Domain. Now a bunch of Wakefield men are making sure the next generation inspired by his deeds will have an easier run. Kelly grew up in Wakefield and attended Waimea College before going on to make a name for himself on the free-riding scene, famously back-flipping over the Grand Canyon in the United States during a Red Bull Rampage competition. His life was tragically cut short in early 2016 when he suffered a cardiac arrest while riding in Queenstown, aged just 33. Despite his world-wide fame, Kelly often made his way back to Nelson to volunteer at various events and it was during one of his trips home that a group of guys in his home town asked him if he’d be keen

to help redesign a small pump track for bikers in Wakefield. He agreed just months before he passed. The group – including some of Kelly’s oldest friends – decided to expand their vision for the dirt track, build a second track out of asphalt and a skate park all-in-one complex. A naming competition resulted in the Park being named McGazzaland, after his nickname in the riding scene, McGazza. So far $13,000 has been pledged to the project, $10,000 from the Kelly McGarry Foundation and $3100 from the Nelson Bikefest event. Matt Goodall, a close friend of Kelly, says McGazzaland isn’t a memorial to Kelly but a tribute to him. “We want families to be able to come down here and enjoy it and have fun. And if they are inspired to take it further, then great.” He says the entire project would cost somewhere between $100,000 and $200,000,

with most of that for the asphalt track. Another group member, Dan Shallcrass, says there is enough in the kitty to complete the dirt pump track, something they are hoping to start in October. “We think the dirt track will take a month or so to complete, then we will use that to promote the project to do the asphalt track.” Matt says Kelly would have loved the concept. “He’d be all over it. He’d be saying ‘where was this 20 years ago?’” The group say, once finished, McGazzaland will be a community space. “We visualize it being a place where a family could come down, have their fish and chips, while the kids hack around on the track. We want people to say ‘I’ll meet you at McGazzaland’.” To keep up with the group’s latest progress, or to get involved, check out McGazzaland on Facebook or Instagram.

Closing the cultural divide Judene Edgar Reporter

judene@waimeaweekly.co.nz

Richmond pupils are getting Asia-aware thanks to two exchange programmes that has qualified and trainee teachers from China teaching within Henley School classrooms. Principal John Armstrong says, not only are Asian pupils the second-fastest growing group at Henley School, but that Asia will play a critical role in Henley pupils’ future careers and life experiences. “We need to make sure our students are culturally aware.” “It helps to demystify Asia for our students,” says John. An Ni He is a graduate teacher and Mandarin Language Assistant who volunteered to come to New Zealand as part of a 12-month Confucius Institute programme. During the weekdays she teaches Mandarin and Chinese culture at different primary schools, and in the evenings teaches classes at Nelson Marlborough Institute of Technology.

An Ni teaches at Henley School every Monday and loves the welcoming and friendly environment. “The classrooms are smaller and we don’t decorate the classrooms so colourfully.” “I love teaching the children,” she says. Senior syndicate pupils Noah Rogers and Mia Kinzett enjoy having An Ni teach their class and learning about the Chinese culture and traditions. Noah visited Hong Kong last year for a couple of days and says, “it’s really busy and there are skyscrapers everywhere.” “Having the Chinese lessons helped me understand the culture.” Mia says she definitely wants to visit China one day. “I love how we get to learn a different language and An Ni makes it really fun for us.” Working alongside An Ni for her first month was Cuiping Wang (Ping), who taught at Henley School as part of the AFS Teacher Exchange Programme. Ping says Henley School was a pleasant cul-

home. “We got a lot back as a school and as a family, having Ping here.” In 2013 John visited schools and other educational institutions in Singapore, Korea, Vietnam, Japan, China, Thailand and India to help develop cultural awareness in his school and students. John also visited Huangshi in

2016 with other senior education officials organised by the Confucius Institute. Due to the increased links with Asian countries, economically, socially and culturally, John says, developing Asia-related competencies is increasingly necessary. “We see ourselves as being an Asian-aware school.”

Hope School’s tri-nations success Judene Edgar Thanks to the dedicated efforts of two 10-year-old pupils, Hope School has come third in a tri-nations Mathletics challenge out of over 6000 schools from Australia, South Africa and New Zealand. From Monday, August 14, to Sunday, August 20, tens of thousands of pupils competed in a range of live, online maths games, activities and timed challenges. Room 1 teacher Graham Snell says it was a tight race, but the whole class put in an amazing effort. “I’m really chuffed about finishing third,” says Graham. “Jonty Doorman and Edward Swain really lead from the front and kept the others interested and motivated with regular updates on our placing.” Jonty and Edward also made the Hall of Fame for their individual efforts. Jonty came second overall for his year level amassing a phenomenal 117,396 points, and Edward came eighth with 63,001 points. The average points for each Room 1 pupil during the competition was 12,477, with it taking approximately an hour to achieve 1000 points. Graham estimates that each of his pupils put in at least eight hours of

their own time, with Jonty putting in about 50 hours and Edward 35 hours. “I was on Mathletics pretty much all the time,” says Jonty. The boys challenged each other and even had a sleepover, staying up until 2am doing maths. “We wanted to stay up longer,” says Edward. “Everyone did their part so we feel really good, but we wanted to win.” Graham, who admits to initially being a bit blasé about the competition due to the number of schools competing, says they could have done better. Their final score was less than 100 points from the second-place school from Australia. “They would possibly have finished higher but we (teachers) made them go outside and play at breaktime when they really wanted to stay in and do more maths!” In addition to bragging rights and a $250 prize, Graham says the effort is also paying off in the classroom. “We did our routine basic facts check up on Monday and everyone smashed their personal bests.” “I’ve been a huge advocate for Mathletics over the years and every year the kids who use it the most make the most gains in their achievement and progress.”

Colourplus Richmond takes home awards Jessie Johnston Colourplus Richmond has returned victorious from its annual conference with two major awards proudly in its possession. Held in Auckland from August 11 to 14, co-owners Kevin and Nicola Gear, and Trish and John Gray were there to receive the award for Store of the Year in the window treatments category, as well as the supreme shop award. The team was also recognised for their success in the paint

category. “Obviously there are prizes that go along with winning but truly speaking, the reward is seeing that your business is successful within the group,” says Kevin. Receiving the awards has meant achieving in a number of different areas including building partnerships with suppliers, meeting the standards set by the group, overall presentation and, of course, the store’ s turnover. “From the point of view of our business, the conference

was also extremely good because of all of the opportunities going forward that were presented such as new product categories, the ability for us to grow, the ability for us to provide a wider range of products to our clients and customers, and much better connectivity through the group back to the customers, so a lot more marketing initiatives,” says Kevin. Colourplus Richmond was up against 29 other Colourplus stores nationwide, including the major centres such as Auckland.

Living the dream in London Judene Edgar Reporter

judene@waimeaweekly.co.nz

Former Garin College student Jake Byrom Robinson is living his dream. After studying musical theatre for a year in London, the 19-year-old has now been signed by an agency and, after a two-week break in Nelson, is heading back to London for auditions. “It was absolutely insane,” says Jake, “definitely the best year of my life.” After travelling to the UK last year as part of the NZ Young Shakespeare Company to train and perform at the Globe, Jake was accepted to study the intensive one-

year musical theatre diploma at the prestigious London School of Musical Theatre. “London was a big culture shock, but if you want to be in musical theatre then it’s the place to be.” Jake has been performing since he was eight years old, treading the boards for the first time in Joseph with the Nelson Youth Theatre. And despite messing up some of his lines on that occasion, he went on to perform in over 20 productions with the Youth Theatre and Off Broadway. He went on to win Most Elizabethan Production at the 2014 Young Shakespeare national finals alongside his friend Callum McIntosh, and he followed that up in 2015

by becoming the Morrison Music Trust music competition supreme winner for his arrangement of Sonnet 130 as a pop/rock song. Despite his wealth of experience Jake says, “I underestimated how much I’d grow and learn in London.” “It pushes you to another level.” And now that he has been signed by London theatrical, television and film agency MR Management, that next level is auditions and. hopefully, the stage. “The world of musical theatre is in its second golden age – there are some amazing new shows coming out.” But while back in Nelson, Jake still found time to visit

the Nelson Youth Theatre, to share his knowledge and insights with some of their aspiring actors. “They’ve done so much for me so it’s good to give back,” says Jake. McKenzie Skye-Gardner, Year 10, who recently played Reno Sweeney in Anything Goes and Maria in the Sound of Music, says she got a lot of notes down and found it really helpful. “I’m going to do a lot of research about future schools,” she says. “Jake’s such a big inspiration.” While Jake hopes to be able to tour in New Zealand, ideally in NZ-written shows, for now London is where he needs to be.

Fund-raiser not for the faint-of-heart Judene Edgar With a poster that reads ‘if you are PC, God-fearing, non-swearing, sober or offended by nudity, then this is not the show for you,’ you’re either going to be totally turned off or definitely keen to attend. Murchison Theatre’s R18 Show is their biennial fundraiser to support the upkeep of the 97-year-old theatre.

Council’s community partnership coordinator Mike Tasman-Jones, and Sport Tasman’s facility manager Mary-Ann McNatty outside the re-branded ‘community hub’. The combined YMCA/war memorial building was opened in 1922 comprising a social room, ladies rest room, boys’ bible classroom, and a billiards room, and is home today to over 50 different community groups and activities.

“This is our fifth one and they’re just fun – anything goes, definitely not PC, no subject is taboo,” says organiser Cheryl Monahan. Despite warnings of bad language and nudity, Cheryl says the shows aren’t sleazy, but it just means that the people on stage don’t have to watch what they say, because everyone has been forewarned. “Most of the skits and items

have a bit of a Murchison theme and people know the cast members which makes it funny.” Home to the local country music club and host to a range of regional and national travelling shows, Cheryl says that the theatre is an important piece of the town’s history. “It is a unique venue with amazing acoustics and a great atmosphere,” she says.

Proud to support Appleby School and their annual spring fair

Proudly supporting Appleby School Country Fair

There’s a lot to be thankful for during a Nelson spring - sunny days, newborn lambs, getting out in the garden and, of course, a family outing to the Appleby School Country Fair. Being the first fair of spring, the Appleby School Country Fair draws visitors from all over the NelsonTasman region. With its rural charm and old-fashioned fairground favourites, the event brings a smile to visitors of all ages and this year’s fair will be no different. Scheduled for 11am, Saturday, September 2, the fair will proceed rain or shine, and don’t worry about your arrival, traffic management will be on hand to ensure there’s a safe car parking spot for everyone.

Proud to support our community

“Visitors enjoy the country atmosphere and have come to know what to expect from our fair,” says fair organiser Laura Southward. “They love the fresh food and produce, the fairground attractions and demonstrations, and the entertainment is top notch. It’s a winning formula.” There’s plenty on offer to keep children entertained including a petting zoo for the animal lovers, smashing crockery, horizontal bungy and laser tag for the energetic, and the big dig for those who love a surprise. Those with style in mind should check out the wacky

hair and face painting. The Farmer’s Market and plants stands will be well stocked as usual due to the generous support of local growers. Fresh fruit and vegetables will be in hot demand, some of it picked the morning of the fair, while an array of plants, shrubs, seedlings, citrus varieties and herbs will provide great planting coming into spring. Jam makers and preservers amongst the Appleby community have been busy again this year with fruity homemade jams, preserves and spicy chutneys on offer. They’ve rallied around to provide

1. After nearly two months of nominations and votes, Nelsonians have made their choices for the biennial New Zealand King Salmon Nelson Hospitality Awards. Held at the Rutherford Hotel on Tuesday, August 22, the awards night recognised the finest in the region’s hospitality scene with seventeen trophies handed out. This year saw a major change in how the nomination and voting processes were carried out, with everything completed online. “The introduction of online voting definitely saw numbers up on previous years and also captured a

younger age group, so it worked very well,” says hospitality awards committee member, Mishael Sowman. “There was a good array of winners and it was a great night, so we’re looking forward to the next Nelson Hospitality Awards.” For those in the hospitality industry, winning an award is a special achievement. Many who have previously won still have their trophy or certificate on show and now there will be some new venues proudly displaying the reward for all their hard work. While the people’s choice categories were left to the public to decide, industry

awards were also handed out on the night, the winners being decided by a panel of judges. NMIT's Philip Raey and two out of town judges decided the head chef award, while Howard Morris, Quentin Gately and Horst Wellmeyer were judges for Up and Coming Chef of the Year. Hayden Thompson and Emma Markland-Webster decided the barista of the year, local wine critic and writer Neil Hodgson judged the winning beverage list while Peter Morrison, from The Classic Villa in Christchurch, decided the two accommodation sector awards. Congratulations to all winners.

Brightwater school students have helped kick-start the process of improving safety on Ellis St.

Got bright ideas for Brightwater? A search for bright ideas to enhance the main street of Brightwater has started with primary school students teaming up with engineers and planners. An interactive brainstorming session of Year 5 and 6 students at Brightwater School used blocks to build models of what they wanted to see in the main street. Tasman District Council project manager Graham Rimmer said involving the students was a good way to get some creative ideas in the project. “We wanted to involve the students in the early design phase. As well as aligning with their class work on

social issues and geometrics. It also allows the views of the students to help shape the future of their community,” Graham says. The project will focus on the safety of Ellis St in the settlement while taking the opportunity to enhance its looks and features. “We have also established a project working group with community and business representatives who will help us.” A meeting to discuss ideas to improve Ellis St will be held at Brightwater School, Wednesday, September 20, from 3pm to 6pm.

From a 1920s Model T to American muscle, hotrods, and AC Cobras, over 200 cars came together to take part in the very first Daffodil Rally for Cancer on Sunday. The cars and their owners took off from the Vintage Car Club rooms at Nelson Speedway and toured around the region before arriving at the port for a public display as part of the fundraiser for the Cancer Society Nelson. Event organiser and Nelson Vintage Car Club chairman, Jim Wareing, says he was blown away by the number of club members and public who turned up to take part and support the cause. “We were thrilled, we started off thinking we’d get 150 if we were very lucky, but the club rooms were absolutely packed to bursting point and we had

215 on display at Quay Connect, they were all sandwiched in.” Nelson auctioneer John Walker turned into James Bond for the day, driving his Aston Martin DB7 in the rally. After recently buying the iconic car which is just one of three in the country, John took the car out for its second decent drive as part of the rally. “The drive was great, we got lost momentarily somewhere out Brightwater way, my navigator lead me astray, but we got to see some parts of the area that we hadn’t before and that was brilliant.” John, who is a member of the Nelson Vintage Car Club, says it is good to see so many drivers out supporting the cause in such a variety of vehicles. “We’ve got so many cars here and, while its nice to see our history maintained, there’s a great mixture of old and young, we’ve got modern, classic, and

vintage cars taking part.” Nelson Vintage Car Club captain Rob Thompson says that, while it was good to get so many car enthusiasts together, the cause was at the forefront of everyone’s minds. "While it’s a fun rally, it’s for a great cause, one in three of us get cancer, everyone knows someone who has battled with it so its great to see so many cars raising money to help.” The Daffodil Rally for Cancer raised around $2350 for the Cancer Society Nelson branch on the day. On Daffodil Day itself, over 400 volunteers sold daffodils and a 636-strong yellow toy windmill collection broke a Guinness World Record beneath the Cathedral. Cancer Society Nelson manager Michelle Hunt says they managed to raise around $80,000. The money will go towards providing services and supporting locals who are battling with cancer.

Waimea College mountainbiker Cameron Jones had a perfect lead-up race for the World Champs starting in Cairns next week when he chased home a super-fast Henry Jaine in the first round of the Nelson Mountainbike Club’s crosscountry series at Kaiteriteri on Sunday. Cameron, 16, finished within 30 seconds of the highly-credentialed winner after 90 minutes of frenetic racing through the Kaiteriteri Mountainbike Park. It was Cameron’s final hit out before he lines up for New Zealand in the junior crosscountry race at the worlds in Cairns next Thursday. “It went really well,” Cameron says. “I was only 30 seconds behind Henry after an hour and half of racing, which is the closest I’ve ever been to him. “It was a great course and I think I actually gained on Henry on the technical descents which was pleasing. I’ve been doing the cyclo-cross series as well so I’m happy with my preparation.” However, Cameron concedes “Cairns will be a massive stepup” and he is realistic about his chances. He says it’s going to be a quantum leap transitioning from winter training and club racing in Nelson to competing

Cameron also goes into the race with just five UCI points meaning he will be starting near the back of the big field. “It’s going to be a new experience racing in such a big field and starting at the back. I’ll just have to go flat out at the start and see what happens. “I’m not sure what to expect because it’s my first international race and it’s a world champs.

But I’m not nervous, I’m just excited.” Cameron is also not sure what to expect from the Smithfield Forest course which has less climbing than he’s used to but includes some very technical rock gardens. “There’s nothing really like it around Nelson so it’s going to be interesting. The climb’s only around 70m which is nothing by Nelson standards, but it’s got a few technical features so, hopefully, I’ll be able to ride them fast.”

Out of retirement and into title contention Andrew Board After 20 seasons of premier grade netball, Miranda Hart was looking forward to a season on the sideline, watching her daughter play and perhaps filling in once-in-a-while in the lower grades. But the 2017 season hasn’t been a break at all and this Saturday she has a chance to win her fifth premier netball crown after a fill-in game turned into playing the entire season with Price’s Pharmacy. Miranda, who has played for Price’s since she left school in the late 90s, vowed to retire at the end of last season, having won her fourth Nelson Netball premier title. She told coach Mandy Whiting that she was happy to fill in once-in-awhile if needed but didn’t expect the first phone call to come before the season had even started. “I filled in every week and when we got to the last round I said to Mandy ‘I may as well start coming to training’. She just said ‘yep, good idea’.”

The only two games she missed all season were when Price’s lined up against Waimea College, which Miranda’s daughter Bailee plays for. “Mandy let me sit those ones out so I could just watch Bailee play.” Now the Victory School teacher has the chance to win another title after Price’s earned a place in this Saturday’s final by beating Jack’s OPD in the first semi-final last Thursday. The other finalist will be decided on Thursday night as Jack’s OPD get a second chance in the minor semi-final against Richmond Glass, which beat Stoke NBS last week. Then it will be all eyes on Nelson Netball’s final day this Saturday starting at 9am, with games in various grades played all day until the premier grade final, which is due to start at 3.15pm at Saxton Stadium. For Miranda, the full-time whistle will definitely be the end of her premier grade career. “Definitely. I might fill in for teams at lower levels but that’s it. No more.”

Waimea College Junior A Basketball The Waimea College Junior A Girls Basketball team is ready to take on the competition at this year’s South Island Junior Secondary School’s Tournament. They’ll be going up against 15 other teams and while they’re currently a very strong side in the Nelson competition, the South Island tournament will be a real test of their skills and team spirit on court. The majority of the players are from year 10 and have been together since intermediate, as well as competing alongside each other in representative teams. “We play in the college grade basketball competition currently and we’re beating all the senior teams in Nelson, but it’s hard to know where we are because at the moment the level in the seniors’ isn’t quite the same as in previous years,” says coach Kat Jones. “In this upcoming tournament, I think we’ll be quite short com-

pared to other teams, but we play really good team defence which means we try to convert easy scoring opportunities off turnovers so we don’t have one or two main scorers, we try and spread it.” While taking home first place will always be a goal to aim for, Kat says realistically the team is aiming for the quarter finals. “We play the college grade final this Wednesday, so it would be good to get that one under our belt leading into the tournament, but really we just need to look after ourselves and make sure everybody is healthy for the tournament.” The South Island Junior Secondary School tournament is held from September 2 until September 5, in Ashburton. Kat and the team would like to thank everyone in the Waimea College community and Nelson Basketball The Waimea College Junior A Girls Basketball team are looking forward to facing the competition at community for their support. the South Island Junior Secondary School’s tournament.

Mercury took out the Nelson Women’s Club Competition on Tuesday night in their toughest basketball game yet. The team of seven had been undefeated all season but their finals clash against Lynx in the Saxton Stadium was their closest score, finishing 43-41 to take out the competition. “They were a competitive team,” says Nelson Basketball Association general manager Frances Tilly. “They’ve got a mix of old heads and new players, they were able to take the ball inside and Lisa Book is always a threat outside the three as well, they had lots of options.” Team member Rebecca James says the whole team have absolutely loved this season. “We have always enjoyed it and had each others' backs. We have only had a small squad so it has been good for us to have plenty of court time together, but quite hard work as well.” Seasoned athlete Lisa Book and young gun Hannah Crabtree were the two standout players throughout the season. “Lisa Book is an incredible athlete, she has a three pointer that never fails to make it to the hoop and she’s great at driving the lane when we need

Multisport Nelson multisport athletes have been competing all around the world this month with Wayne Leighton leading the way with a win in the 55-59 age group at the Cross-Triathlon World Championship in Penticton, Canada. Wayne completed the 1.5km swim, 31km mountainbike and 8km trail run in her 46min 33sec.

Wily Weka The Nelson Orienteering Club’s annual team’s rogaine, the Wily Weka, is proving popular with over 240 people already entered. The event is being held around the Maitai Valley on September 10 with competitors collecting as many controls as they can in three or six hours. The six-hour event has ‘foot’ or ‘foot and mountainbike’ options.

Not ready for the building inspector? Cancel early, no fee It's important to us to deliver a timely and efficient building inspection service. We know it’s always a bit of a juggle to everything to line up at the right time for the inspection. In recent months, we have had an increase in the number of instances where the job is not ready when the inspector arrives on site. This isn’t efficient use of our resources and it is causing frustration with other industry partners who miss out on an inspection booking for that day.

Cancellation after 2.00 pm will incur a cancellation fee of $150. Any inspection we encounter not ready at the time of inspection will result in a failed inspection and will incur the standard $150 re-inspection fee.
