Scammers almost claim entire credit card limit SARA HOLLYMAN A woman is warning others after she was nearly scammed out of her entire credit card balance by someone she thought was a relative.

Valerie Schroeder’s son returned to New Zealand last year after living in the UK but work recently called him back to the UK for a three-week period.

Valerie thought nothing of it when she got a text message from a UK number saying, ‘Hi mum, here’s my new number’.

She began to converse with who she thought was her son, asking how the trip was going and when his gig was playing.

The responses were nothing untoward, they even included ‘xx’ at the end of them, mirroring her replies.

After some back-and-forwarding, Valerie told her son she would prefer to video call him but was met with ‘I’ll give you a call later, I’m just trying to sort out a problem’.

Worried for her son, she asked if there was anything she could help with.

The response was that he had some invoices that needed paying today but with his new

number he couldn’t get his mobile banking to work.

Valerie, eager to help in anyway possible, asked what she could do to assist.

The suggestion was made that the invoices could be sent to her to pay with the promise to ‘pay you back tomorrow xx’.

Then the suggestion was made that she could just send him a photo of the credit card and he could save her the hassle and pay them himself. So that’s what she did. Being an international payment of a large sum, she had to call the bank to authorise the payment, thankfully in the meantime she thought she better contact other family members to confirm her son had in fact got a new number.

Before she got through to the bank, her daughter-in-law informed her that no, he did not have a new number, so instead of authorising the payment, she cancelled her card and blocked the number, saving her almost $5000.

Aroha for Ukraine: rally in support Members of Nelson’s Ukrainian community are hoping lots of locals turn out for a rally in support of their wartorn homeland this weekend. ‘Aroha for Ukraine’ will see speeches, live music and fundraising stalls at 1903 Square at the top of Trafalgar St on Saturday from midday.

Dmytro Romanenko says it will be “an opportunity for us to thank New Zealand, and Nelsonians in particular, for the amazing support for Ukraine, demonstrated during these hard times.”

Nelson City Councillor Matt Lawrey, who is organising the event, says it’ll be also be a great opportunity for Nelsonians to show their support for the Ukrainian people, and it would be great to see lots of people in blue and yellow.

Maitai School is moving to Richmond MAX FRETHEY Maitai School is set to build and move to a new campus on Salisbury Rd in Richmond.

“We highlighted in 2014 that this school needed substantial upgrades to become suitable for our students,” occupational therapist and staff board of trustees representative Emily Wood says. “So we applied to the Ministry [of Education] for that.”

She says that the ministry said capacity and building-wise, its current site on the corner of Bridge and Domett Sts was too small.

“And all the upgrades required are too much, so we need to be rebuilt somewhere else.”

The only piece of ministryowned land that could accommodate a new school was on the block of land currently occupied by Salisbury School and several other specialist services.

The new purpose-built facility will be a considerable upgrade to Maitai School’s current site which has been outgrown by its roll.

“Our roll is growing. We’re expanding and we require more space,” says deputy principal

Maitai School deputy principal Janet Watt, occupational therapist Emily Wood, and principal Jenny Milne are excited about their new planned campus in Richmond.

Janet Watt. “We get enquiries all the time from families… we want to say yes.”

Maitai School provides learning and therapy opportunities for students aged 5-21 who require support in the Ongoing Resourcing Scheme.

Currently, Maitai School’s roll is 45 students but their new facilities will expand their capacity to 64.

“We’ll be able to cater for a bigger range of students,” Emily says. “They’ve all got quite different needs and so we’ll be able to have facilities that meet everybody’s needs.”

But it’s not just a new main

campus that Maitai School is getting. Two satellite classrooms are also being built at Tāhunanui School and at Nayland College.

The Tāhunanui School satellite will replace a small one at Victory Primary School while the new satellite at Nayland College will return a classroom to the college and give Maitai School a new, larger facility.

The new facility on Salisbury Road will keep the name ‘Maitai School’ and is expected to be open for the 2025 school year. The current Maitai School site is planned to be retained by the school.

Too early to tell if half-price fares working JENNY NICHOLSON IIt’s early days but figures show there hasn’t been a large overall increase in those choosing to catch the bus since the introduction of half-price fares.

Half-price bus fares were introduced across the country for three months from Friday 1 April.

Nelson City Council manager transport and solid waste, Marg Parfitt, says numbers for April tend to be about 7,000 fewer than March due to the impact of the Easter and Anzac holidays. She says ongoing dips in patronage from March 2022 are likely influenced by the Omicron outbreak.

“However, the reduction in fare price has seemed to stabilise passenger numbers, and patronage in April 2022 was only 3,495 less than in March 2022.”

The total bus patronage for the month of April was 25,822. This compares to 29,317 in March this year and would bring the number close to that of April 2022. This compares to 29,317 in March this year and would bring the number close to that of April 2022. There have been a few individual days in April where passenger numbers exceeded 1400, which is notably higher than any day in March this year.

“Active transport is the number one, but public transport is the number two choice with electric cars next,” Joanna says.

She says there are multiple reasons buses are more favourable than electric cars.

“They reduce congestion, accidents and road maintenance, which is very costly to the council and the community,” she says. “High traffic roads like State Highway 6 divide communities. That’s very real for us in Richmond.”

She says those travelling by car should be grateful for people who choose to walk, cycle, or use public transport.

Skidmarks on road lead police to address TRACY NEAL

Open Justice Reporter

Police were led to Peter Johnson’s poor driving by a series of strong clues, including skid marks on the road, straight to his home.

After smashing through a fence into a Leicester St, Stoke garden in his Ford Falcon, Johnson was then seen reversing out quickly and driving off erratically, on the wrong side of the road.

Later that night, on March 31 this year, the 47-yearold was seen doing a series of skids and donuts in the middle of the intersection of Seaview Rd and Leicester St, as his vehicle let off a large plume of smoke. In the Nelson District Court on Monday, where Johnson appeared on his 12th drink-drive charge, police prosecution said they were able to follow a “large trail of skid marks” to his address, and on arrival noticed his vehicle was giving off a “strong smell of burning rubber”. He also

appeared on charges of driving dangerously and operating a motor vehicle with sustained loss of traction; all of which he admitted. Breath testing procedures revealed he had been driving while more than four times the legal limit, with 1145 micrograms of alcohol per litre of breath.

The legal limit is 250mg.

His lawyer Wayne Jones said Johnson had not been before the court in six or seven years, and neither had he drunk alcohol in the past nine years.

“He’s not an alcoholic. He hasn’t drunk in several years. He was given a bottle of whisky for his birthday and just went crazy,” Jones told Judge Jo Rielly as to why a drug and alcohol report was possibly not necessary.

Judge Rielly remanded Johnson on bail for sentencing on June 23.

Airport to ‘reassess’ amid new sea level data ERIN BRADNOCK Local Democracy Reporter

Nelson Airport’s chief executive says he is “reassessing” its coastal inundation plan following the release of damning sea level rise and land subsidisation data.

Last week, new data showed sea levels are rising twice as fast as previously thought in some parts of the country with Richmond and surrounding Nelson areas subsiding at a rate of 5mm a year.

This information comes from a new programme comprising of dozens of local and international scientists called NZ Sea Rise.

Victoria University of Wellington Professor and NZ SeaRise programme co-leader, Tim Naish, singled out Nelson Airport and Richmond as areas of concern early last week.

“That whole area there has been a lot of development, new subdivisions, housing ... the airport is very exposed, and that road

around [the coast to Richmond] is vulnerable,” said Naish.

Nelson Airport CEO Mark Thompson assures that the impact of sea level rise in the area has been on their radar for “a while”.

“This latest information just exasperates the speed of change,” he said.

Thompson says the airport commissioned an internal report of coastal inundation impacts through Tonkin & Taylor which

Museum and sanctuary partner up for new display KATE RUSSELL The Nelson Provincial Museum has partnered up with the Brook Waimārama Sanctuary to create an educational display that highlights endemic species found at the sanctuary.

‘Te Tautiaki i Te Ao e Whakatinanatia ana - Conservation in Action’ is a new addition to the museum’s regional gallery and opened to the public last week.

Visitors will have an opportunity to view a lifelike beech tree, taxidermy from the museum’s own collection, and a wētā hotel - right in the middle of the museum.

The display also includes a video of the sanctuary’s conservation journey, and an original Taonga Pūoro soundscape composed and recorded by Bob Bickerton in the sanctuary itself.

Nelson Provincial Museum chief executive, Lucinda Blackley-Jimson, says it’s an important story for them to be telling.

“The museum and the sanctuary have been working together over a number of years and we’ve done joint education programmes and hosted an artist in residence for them a few years ago, so this is just

another initiative in our partnership.

“We recognise the importance of protecting the unique species of our rohe and therefore, it is an honour and a privilege to collaborate with sanctuary.”

She says it has been inspiring to see the project grow from an idea to an actuality.

“This display is a celebration of an important communitybased initiative. We are also proud that the display is fully bilingual, recognising the vital importance of iwi relationships in the conservation and protection of our endangered species.”

he says will need to be reassessed in light of this new data.

“Now we’ve got to reassess things if we’re sinking as well as experiencing rising sea levels,” said Thompson.

Actions outlined to mitigate the risk of future flooding included deepening a pond connected to neighbouring waterway Jenkins Creek.

During a storm in early 2018, Jenkins Creek rose and flooded the airport’s car park during a

king tide. This was while the airport’s $32 million raised terminal build was under construction.

Thompson says they are still in the planning stage in terms of deepening the Jenkins Creek Pond and other mitigation proposals.

The importance of heat pump servicing Think a quick dust or vacuum of your heat pump is enough to keep it in top condition?

Taking the time to regularly clean your filters can certainly help – but having a professional service every 12 months (stated in EECA’s “Good Practice Guide”), is the only way to ensure your heat pump remains working efficiently and reduces the chances of costly breakdowns.

Heat pumps are the most cost-effective way to heat your home according to the Energy Efficiency and Conservation Authority (EECA). Yes even better than a wood burner.

A dirty or blocked heat pump that is no longer working efficiently is like trying to burn wet wood. Studies show that blocked coils (the fins behind the filters) can reduce efficiency by up to 30%. This can affect your power bill and the lifespan of your heat pump!

What about the outside unit? Well it’s just as important, local professionals Airify say.

When was the last time your outside unit was serviced? Is your heat pump running low on refrigerant? Is your unit producing the cor-

rect amount of heat? These checks all form part of a qualified Airify service.

Let’s not forget about healthy air! If anyone in your household suffers from allergies, Asthma or even the slightest respiratory illness, then it’s critical your heat pump is cleaned and serviced to remove dust or mould spores.

Mould is a common issue often found after continued use as an air conditioner after long hot summer months.

The Healthy Homes Standards now ensures maintenance is performed on all heating devices including heat pumps in all tenanted properties and tested to meet the World Health Organisations minimum heating standard. Airify says it’s important that all homes are healthy homes.

A Premium heat pump clean and service includes more than 30 checks on your heat pump system – inside and outside unit – ensuring peak performance, healthy air and heat pump longevity. Make certain you purify your heat pump before winter.

Community of cabins to help housing crisis KATE RUSSELL A vacant section on Vanguard St has finally found its purpose and is set to house eight emergency accommodation cabins.

Habitat for Humanity Nelson, Housing First, and Victory Community Anglican Church have joined forces to build a community of cabins for people who have been living in emergency accommodation for the last two years.

The section at 236 Vanguard St is owned by the church but has been vacant for around six years.

“There was an old house on it

which we took down as it wasn’t fit for living in and it’s really just remained vacant ever since, waiting for an inspiration,” says warden Neville Jackson. “And Habitat Nelson walking through the door was that inspiration.”

Habitat Nelson general manager Nick Clarke says conversations began with Housing First and the church after he saw a similar project in Carterton and noticed the vacant land in Victory.

“We built a couple of prototype cabins and we started exploring what a cabin community would look like,” he says. “I started talking with Jaap [Noteboom]

at Housing First and once we thought it was a model that could work, we approached the church.

Conversations started and they were wonderfully receptive.”

The cabins will be ready to house people from early July and there will be a communal whare with a kitchen, living and dining areas, as well as ablutions with a toilet, shower, and laundry. During their stay in the cabins, residents will be supported and prepared to move into long-term accommodation elsewhere.

“Six of the cabins have been built by pre-trade students at NMIT, which is great because people are

learning skills while immediately giving back to their local community,” says Nick.

Each cabin is 4.8 metres long and 2.4 metres wide. They are insulated, double-glazed, with a veranda.

Jaap from Housing First, which is a collaborative programme managed by The Salvation Army in Nelson, with Te Piki Oranga and the Male Room, says the cabins are a “huge deal” for Nelson “It is going to help enormously.

This project is going to be a good in-between step for people. There is a long list for emergency housing, and this is the next step on

their housing journey. It’s about getting people back on track.”

Jaap says he is grateful for the partnership. “I don’t think the housing crisis can be solved with just a few open sections - we need to come together as a community and this project sets a good example.”

The agreement will let them use the land initially for three years with an annual review. Nick says the project is the perfect example of the power of communities coming together to make a difference. “If you want to go far, you go together. It’s a very powerful thing.”

70km row celebrates ‘remarkable men’ A 70km row from Awaroa to Nelson celebrated two of the Nelson rowing community’s ‘remarkable men’ over the weekend.

The Golden Edge Nelson Rowing Club hosted the first Myles Sellers Memorial Row on Saturday in honour of Nelson man Myles Sellers, who died last year.

Myles’ wife Margarette says the day was emotional, but she and her two daughters are so thankful for the support of the community.

She says Myles had a long involvement in the club as a rower going back to his school days and had represented the club at a national level.

In more recent times he had reconnected with past rowing friends and had been coaching at the club.

“For Myles, it was a way of encouraging people to do a sport that they perhaps thought that they couldn’t do, and giving back to the rowing community.”

Nelson Rowing Club president Grant Wilson says Myles was an outstanding member of the Nelson Rowing Club.

“Rowing was in Myles’ blood. His great uncle was Darcy Hadfield, the first ever NZ Olympic medallist.”

Darcy won the bronze medal

“When Darcy was a schoolboy growing up at Awaroa, he would often row a 14ft clinker dinghy across 35 miles (56km) of Tasman Bay for a day out in Nelson, sparking the inspiration for Saturday’s event,” Grant says.

“The rowing club saw this as a

very fitting way to remember Myles by following in Darcy’s footsteps and starting the event from Darcy’s home in Awaroa.”

The memorial row followed the coastline from Abel Tasman’s Awaroa Lodge with accessible crew changeovers at Kaiteriteri, Ruby Bay, Rabbit Island, and then back to the Nelson Rowing Club.

Two five-crew coastal rowing boats completed the journey with

safety support boats.

Margarette rowed two of the legs including heading back into Nelson from Rabbit Island.

Grant says coastal rowing is a new part of the sport and the Coastal Rowing Revolution opens up new rowing experiences in the Te Tau Ihu region.

The boats are wider and more stable than flat water rowing boats which make it easier to learn how

to row. It is also attracting past members back into the sport.

“The club is thankful for the support of Myles’ family, members, past members and the team at Wilson’s Abel Tasman that enabled this event to happen,” Grant says.

The rowing club is holding more events in the region and welcomes new members to experience the sport.

Hospice launch new appeal campaign Final facts on some of our stories

JO KENT Nelson Tasman Hospice is encouraging its supporters to help the much-needed service by organising their own fundraising events.

The ‘Hands up for Hospice’ campaign launches this Monday, 16 May, and runs into June.

Communications coordinator Rachel Moffitt says the appeal aims to be a fun campaign, encouraging individuals to do their bit and help raise funds for the charity.

“We are lucky to have fantastic support from our community, but with the recent Omicron wave and various Covid-related restrictions, it’s been hard for people to organise fundraising events.”

It’s hoped ‘Hands up’ will be a chance for people to reconnect with the community by hosting their own events, such as quiz nights, sausage sizzles, cake sales or sponsored walks.

“It’s also an opportunity for us to tell the story of our work and our funding reality ¬- only 52 per cent of money comes from the DHB, so fundraising is crucial.”

Rachel says various local busi-

Chief executive Tony Gray says Nelson Tasman Hospice’s $3 million funding shortfall continues to grow each year.

“We know that the community needs are growing exponentially, whether this is clinical or in the extended services we provide throughout the region.”

Head of supporter engagement and income development Don-

na Ching-Tregidga says the vision for Hands up for Hospice is to be an annual appeal that shines a spotlight on the specialist service they provide.

“We would love to see it grow to where there are schools, book clubs, quiz nights and workplace fundraisers. Each month between 220-260 people throughout the community are looked after by our service, and so our reach throughout the region is extensive.”

About 80 people aged from four months to 80-years-old joined the walk along the Maitai on Sunday, 1 May, to raise awareness and funds for perinatal mental health. Organiser Ruth Brodbeck says that many new connections were made and there were lots of wonderful comments about the event. “Everyone enjoyed the walk and talk along the river.

Some people along the way asked what it was all about and said, ‘good on you, a great opportunity to raise awareness’.” Nearly $500 was raised which will be shared with the Perinatal Support Nelson.

Orange light for orange bikes

27 April, 2022

Almost 50 people took part in the orange bike ride on Saturday, 30 April, to celebrate the nationwide Dutch week and to promote cycling as a sustainable means of transport. Organiser Velma Vermaat says 46 keen bikers dressed

in orange and made their way from the Nightingale Library in Tāhunanui to the Trafalgar Centre - 12.5km in total. “Everyone had big smiles on their faces and loved the ride, we had lots of compliments on the route that we set out. The youngest rider was around eight, and there were people in their 70s. There was a real buzz.” The event finished with celebrations and a prizegiving at Rutherford Park.

Baking for children in Ukraine

4 May, 2022

The bake sale to raise funds for Ukraine’s biggest children’s hospital, at the Nelson Market on Saturday, was a huge success. The final figure from the Nelson Market was $5940, and another sale at the Motueka Sunday Market raised another $5000. Organisers say they went through around 45 cakes on Saturday, and one man put $200 in the donation bucket. Nelsonians will get another chance to show their support at the Aroha for Ukraine event at the Top of Trafalgar this Saturday, 12pm.

Opinion Lack of loading zones in CBD

Leon Ward makes a very important point. From his explanation, the ability to operate a viable delivery business is becoming difficult. Reading the story, I’m not sure who Leon has been talking to, but I suspect it wasn’t a Councillor. If it was a staff member, then that is where the problem starts. Staff should not be contacted. Staff have the duty of carrying out parking policies which Councillors develop and instruct staff to implement, or that’s how it’s supposed to happen. Sadly, the current Council, over the last nine years, has shown to do little more than meekly ask questions of staff members who in many cases are running a hard agenda against vehicles to the great detriment of the likes of Leon. To prove the point, the bike shed recently built on Montgomery car park has taken up most of what was a loading bay, with no alternative provided! But, at the same time Councillors and the Mayor are comfortable with fining delivery people who attempt to keep the so-called city functioning. Operators must not accept

parking fines due to bad Council policies. If operators want to overcome the problem, they need to stand for Council at the rapidly approaching election.

I commend councillor Rohan for his mayoralty bid. It takes courage, support, and a certain amount of resilience which he seems to possess. Kia kaha. He states that he is a Green Party member, and he is not a middleaged white man - but man and white he is, nevertheless.

My concern is that if elected and the current Green Party councillors are also re-elected into positions of power then a large portion of our community will have no voice. Last election saw the strategic way, Green Party members encouraged their supporters to vote for them and no one else, which was disappointing but effective.

I encourage all nelson community groups who have felt that their concerns have fallen on deaf ears to unite this election, strategically plan and do the same.

Civic Trust awards

Brian McIntyre and the ‘A Team’ are to be congratulated on being given the Nelson Civic Trust Community Award for cleaning and restoring graves at the Wakapuaka Cemetery. 3500 headstones in four years. I’ve seen them – and they look as good as new!

How will ratepayers benefit from Three Waters?

The claims made by mayor Reese cannot be left unchallenged (Nelson Weekly 3/5/22). The suggestion the changes made by the Mahuta Working Group, that mayor Reese was handpicked to sit on, have ‘improved representation and accountability’ are simply not true. Let’s look at this and ask this question … how will Nelson ratepayers benefit from having their water assets managed in the future by a distant bureaucratic

Good Samaritan emerges out of Anzac medal hunt:

entity intended to be called ‘Entity C’? The answer is there will be no benefits as a number of water management analysts have already commented. In fact, it will cost ratepayers a great deal more for water services imposed by a decision-making entity over which, in reality, Nelson ratepayers have no say. The suggestion that Nelson will have influence because it will have a one vote shareholding in Entity C is a ‘smoke screen’ and frankly ridiculous as there are at least five other local bodies who will have greater shareholding and therefore will command priority.

Should Nelson ratepayers, as mayor Reese claims, accept that our current ‘water structure debt’ is the prime reason we should roll over and accept the Mahuta Three Waters reforms? The answer is definitely not as it is abundantly clear that having direct control of our water assets will be the only way ratepayers for many reasons will see any benefits from the rates they pay in the years ahead. The Three Waters Entities legislation will be introduced soon and following that, as promised by mayor Reese and

Lovely thing to do Brian, for Rebecca. Hope she finds the medals.

CEO Dougherty, ratepayers will at last be given the opportunity to have their say.

Neville Response from Rachel Reese: The Independent Working Group, chaired by Doug Martin, had the opportunity to provide its unconstrained advice to the Government. It fully considered suggestions and alternative options put forward by local government and iwi Māori colleagues and listened to their concerns. No one who spoke to the Working Group asked for the status quo to remain. Everyone accepted there is a major problem to resolve.

The Working Group’s recommendations were largely accepted by the Government.

Of the 47 recommendations, the Government agreed to 44 in full, partially and in principle - with three that need to be worked on further. The legislation has been amended accordingly.

Everyone will have their chance to have their say once the bill is published either via feedback to council or directly to the Select Committee.

Well done Brian and I hope she finds the medals.

My mum’s are missing so I know how she feels.

April Jarden This is awesome. Was a nice thing for Brian to do for you.

I hope you find those medals one day, Rebecca.

Mandy Stewart Well done, Brian. You are so thoughtful.

Bringing a point of difference to the region's building sector Local couple Anna and Ruary O’Toole are certainly no strangers when it comes to the building industry. Bringing years of experience to the trade with their current commercial construction business, when the opportunity to purchase a complementary residential-build franchise with already-established brand, Sentinel Homes, came up in 2019 the Wakefield-based couple seized it with both hands.

Anna and Ruary were impressed with the level of support and comradery offered by other franchisees and be-

came the proud owner-operators of Sentinel Homes Nelson & Marlborough. Having recently completed the build of their stunning brand-new show home on Ascot St, in Richmond, they say having an existing business in the field was a huge asset as their already-established connections gave the team an advantage. ”We did already have relationships with our suppliers under our construction company which also gave us the knowledge of being able to plan ahead to ensure the build kept moving.”

The efficient three bedroom, 178m2, home is the perfect family home, boasting a spacious open plan kitchen, dining and living room, excellent for entertaining, with a scissor truss ceiling, and a skylight in the kitchen to allow natural lighting. “Our kitchen also features a floating curved end on the kitchen island which beautifully complements the dining and living area.” The stunning use of colour creates a warm and inviting space which perfectly showcases the design quality and attention to detail.

“We are very excited to finally have our show home open! It has been a longer journey than expected with Covid coming along as we started the build.

The support from our key suppliers has been great and we are very proud of the finished product.”

Reno Checklist

Heat pumps are efficient and cost-effective Building or renovating this winter? Peter Cameron, owner operator of Pete Pumps Ltd, has 13 years’ experience installing heat pumps in the Nelson-Tasman region and highly recommends that people organise their heat pumps when they first start working on their building project.

“If you leave it too late, there is a chance you might not be able to get the correct system for your house. So prior to building is a really good time to get in contact.

We can visit you and discuss your exact requirements to ensure that the most efficient heating or cooling system is installed in your home or business.”

New tenancy laws came into effect in July 2021, so when investing in a rental property Pete recommends people look into the best and most efficient heat sources for their investments. “Heat pumps are great choice for homes, business or rental properties. They the most cost-effective and efficient form of heating available, so they are better for the environment,” says Pete.

Another alternative heating option people may want to consider is hot water heat pumps. “They

are a really good second option to electric hot water. You can save a huge amount, up to 70 percent, on your water heating bills. Hot water heat pumps can be hooked up to your solar, too.”

Coming into winter now is also a good time to get your heat pump serviced and make sure it is performing at its highest capacity.

“For a lot of Nelsonians, the middle of winter is the only time they use their heat pump or air con, so before winter hits it’s important to have it checked and know that it is working correctly.”

Pete and his team install some of the leading products in durability and efficiency, making them better for the environment. “The more efficient your heatpump, the less it will cost you to run, and the less it will impact on the environment.” In addition, their products use environmentally-conscious refrigerant which has a significantly lower impact on the environment than those used previously.

Pete Pumps Ltd service both the domestic and commercial market.

Ideal for those looking for energy efficient air-to-water heat pump hydronic home heating solutions for compact spaces.

erving patrons for over sixty years, The Turf Hotel has a long-established connection with their patrons and wider local community. For co-owners, Janelle and Scott Clark, and general manager, Gary Owens, supporting the region is a huge part of their focus and on May 29 they will be joining Breast Cancer Foundation New Zealand with their biggest campaign of the year.

Turning the Turf Hotel pink is the aim of the day, beginning with hosting a Pink Ribbon Champagne Breakfast, live music from two Turf favourites, and providing a BBQ and a multitude of raffles throughout to help raise funds for breast cancer research, patient support and education.

“This is the first time we have hosted a Pink Ribbon Breakfast and we are really excited to be a part of this year’s fundraiser.

Unfortunately, we all know someone who has been affected by the disease and for some of our patrons, it is a reality close to home. It is good to be a part of it and help to support our community where we can.”

Pink decorations will adorn the Turf Hotel and staff will be getting decked out head to toe in support of the Breast Cancer Awareness campaign. The Champagne Breakfast will begin from 10am through to 12pm and Janelle suggests booking a table to secure availability. “We encourage patrons to really get into the spirit of the day and dress up as much as possible!”

A mammoth meat raffle will be on offer with prizes upwards of $1400 to be won and live music from Phil (Flipside) from 122:30, and Take Me Out will be performing from 3-5pm. A courtesy van will be available from 3pm onwards.

FAMILY WORK TOGETHER TO BRING DREAMS TO FRUITION

L

ocal lads, Tane and Arahi Raumati, have long shared a deep passion for building and a dream of owning their own company within the construction industry. Tane began his career in carpentry in 2014, with Arahi following suit in 2016, and both becoming licensed building practitioners.

Bringing together a wealth of experience, when an opportunity arose in July 2020, there was no hesitation between the brothers in finally creating their building company, Tuakana Builders.

Tuakana translates to ‘older sibling’ in Te Reo, a representation that suits the family-owned company well. With strong determination, motivation and a solid drive for success, Tane and Arahi are passionate about delivering high-quality workmanship to all of their builds. “Being a smaller business allows us to have a closer relationship with clients as the owners deal with clients directly. We pride ourselves on completing each job efficiently, to a high standard with no hidden costs. No job is

too big or too small. The building industry is very fast-paced and forever growing. This provides endless opportunities to grow the company. We enjoy building because every project is different, and we love seeing the homes come together using different designs and materials.” Tuakana Builders can offer expert building services on renovations, new builds or expansions, and a vast range of building projects and seeing clients dreams turn to reality. They have a solid reputation built upon impeccable attention to detail and providing workmanship of the highest standard. “Whether it’s a fixed price or an estimate, we offer project outcomes with no hidden costs.

We set a realistic schedule, communicate proactively and ensure that our projects are delivered on time.”

Superstar potential and greatness in the genes of Giants’ new signing JACK MALCOLM

Trey Mourning has made 66 points in his first two games for the Nelson Giants, sitting over 10 points per game higher than any other player in the league. Photo: Trina Brereton/Shuttersport.

Nelson Giants’ import Trey Mourning is excited to be able to bring his brand of basketball to the loyal local fans.

Touching down just days before the Mike Pero Nelson Giants season opener, a 88-69 win over the Otago Nuggets, he made 35 points and 14 rebounds.

He followed that up with a 31 point performance in his almost 35 minutes of court time against the Auckland Tuatara in the 7786 loss the following week.

“It’s the first time I’ve got the opportunity to play 30 minutes a game since high school.

“The first time I’ve got the opportunity to show what I’m capable of.”

Trey played two seasons for the Sioux Falls Skyforce in the G League, a feeder league for the NBA, after going undrafted in 2019 and playing for the Miami Heat in the NBA Summer League.

He played 77 games for the Skyforce, averaging five points and 3.5 rebounds while starting one time.

“I know I can play in the NBA and be very successful. One of the marks of being the best is winning championships, and I want to be the best.”

Trey has a better claim than many in wanting to be one of the most elite basketball players in the world. He is the son of seventime NBA all-star and hall-offame recipient Alonzo Mourning. Alonzo played 16 years in the league, earning a championship with the Miami Heat in 2006 and defensive player of the year in 1999 and 2000.

“That’s my dad’s career, not mine,” says Trey.

“I don’t think about that when I’m out there, and I have the ball in my hands.

“I’m not trying to play like him.

I’m trying to play like me.”

He says it’s been a blessing to have someone in his corner who’s

gone through his journey already that he can lean on for advice.

He’s noticed the game is very different to home, with the Americans using their pace and physicality and the Kiwis using their “ingenuity” and stronger fundamentals. Despite the differences, he already feels at home with his new squad.

“The guys welcomed me with open arms. We’ve been spending time on and off the court and we’re bonding really well.”

Trey chose the Giants because of head coach Michael Fitchett.

“It was the most professional offer I have ever seen.”

He says Michael included in the offer a blurb about himself, his family and why he loves the Nelson region.

“For a coach to do that, it means a whole lot.”

As for plans and ambitions after he wins a championship with the Giants, he says he wants to stay in New Zealand for a little bit before his next season kicks off.

Men’s team triumphant return to top league JACK MALCOLM The return of the Nelson Men’s and Mixed Netball Club to premier competition has been a long time coming.

It was also a moment to remember for partners Sarah Mather and Rob Boomer, who were matched up against each other on the wing after an injury.

She says it was a special moment, having met playing indoor netball many years ago.

“It was fantastic to start the season against the men’s team, so good that they are back in the competition.

“They bring a very different game to the league - much faster and aerial, they are very skillful and have the ability to move the ball at speed and score quickly.”

A 57-10 loss to Central just one week after their 85th minute loss to Marist has highlighted what looks like a strong delegation of teams from the other side of the Whangamoas.

They will look to right their wrongs as they take on Waimea Old Boys, who are also in search of their first win after a loss to Stoke, this weekend.

Marist will make their debut after a bye in the opening week as

for 10 years, Nelson Men’s and Mixed Netball Club captain Jared Lock says they were just happy to be out there again, beating Richmond F45 77-36.

“We didn’t come out with expectations to win or do well. It’s ten years since we’ve been in prems.”

As an original member of the squad, he says the return was a “pretty special” moment for himself and the other four original players.

Jared was a leading force behind the team’s win, with accurate shooting from deep around the arc that Richmond F45 struggled to defend. Alongside goal shoot Matt Davies, the men quickly grew a lead from the outset by utilising their pace and height. After opening the game with a goal, a forced turnover on Richmond’s first possession served as an in-

dication of how the game would play out.

The men used their pace to their advantage, with centre Ricky Fry pushing the tempo with his quick restarts and running of the court.

Richmond consistently found themselves one step behind their opponents who punished them with highly accurate passing and shooting, despite their best efforts. Jared says they were surprised at the lift in competition intensity after playing the team on Saturday in a preseason fixture.

“They really gave it to us. The score did not really reflect how it felt out there.”

In the other fixtures of week one, Prices Waimea Ahurei beat NCG senior A 57-41, Jacks Netball Club OPD beat Nayland senior A 8522, and Prices Waimea Pango beat Jacks Netball Club TBC 57-18.

they play host to Stoke in what is set to be an exciting rematch of round one of the sub-union competition.

Kahurangi will be eager to continue their charge after a 39-12 win over Waitohi as they play host to the struggling Nelson side at Cooks Reserve.

It will be an all Blenheim affair at Endeavour Park as Waitohi and Renwick play off, while Central have a bye.

NZ Enduro Champs and will see a combined 40 cars race around 650km of the Golden Downs track – a similar distance to that from Nelson to Dunedin, but all on gravel roads.

Organiser and local driver, Dan Fisher, says they are expecting a “high attrition rate”.

“For the 40-plus race cars and drivers this is a relentless race and it will take a toll. We’re expecting an attrition rate more than 50 per cent. It’s a staggering figure and it means fewer than 20 finishers are expected.”

The local racer team of Dan with navigator David Pinkerton feel their previous race knowledge of the forest is a huge advantage, as with the other local contesting drivers of Darrin Thomason, Grant Adamson, Dale McKenzie, and John Hodgson who have

Suburbs maintain third place

Nelson Suburbs sit third on the Southern League points table after a 2-2 home draw against Coastal Spirit over the weekend.

Goals either side of halftime gave Coastal Spirit the early lead, but they were unable to hold on to a late surge from Suburbs.

A 75th-minute goal to Suburbs’ Scott Wallace sealed the scores after Lu Bu Pan opened the scoring for Suburbs late in the first half.

The draw puts the Suburbs, who have 13 competition points, clear of Dunedin City Royals FC and Ferrymead Bays FC who both sit on 10 points having played an additional game.

The only two teams ahead on the leaderboards are the unbeaten Cashmere Technical (18 points) and Christchurch United (21 points) squads.

Suburbs are yet to play Cashmere Technical, with their first game scheduled for 4 June, but have suffered a 4-0 loss at the hands of Christchurch United earlier in the season.

New shields change hands

Stoke Hockey Club have put in a commanding performance to win the Fireshire Shield from Federal Hockey Club, 5-1.

In the other shield match of the weekend, Waimai United Hockey Club held onto their Waimea Shield with a 5-2 win over Tasman Black in P1 women.

lington, our big number three.”

Tyler Blake also impressed at halfback with the way he organised the team and ran play, Jono says.

“We targeted the first half, just the accuracy required to keep the pressure on them and I thought we did that really well.

“St Andrew’s is such a proud rugby school and to keep them to five points in the second half. . . I was really proud of the defensive effort.”

Jono was also impressed with how the team banded together on defence. “This early in the season to see that sort of unitedness of the boys and how they went about it is very cool. You know you’re a united team when you defend well.”

At Waimea, a wayward last-minute penalty kick by first five-eighth Ryan Flowers saw them finish their first game tied at 28-a-piece.

A late resurgence from Rangiora saw them claw back the Barbarian’s’ early lead with 21 unanswered points.

Nelson College has started its first 15 campaign with a convincing 3613 win over St Andrew’s College.

Meanwhile, Waimea Combined Barbarians drew with Rangiora High School in a 28-28 thriller.

Despite fielding 12 debutants, the Nelson College team played with maturity beyond their years.

They were able to absorb the pressure on defence and were clinical on the attack, being unlucky not to have scored several more tries.

Nelson College number 8 Matt Lowe had a dominant performance, with strong ball running from the back of the scrum and a high work rate around the park.

Despite struggling at scrum time, with St Andrew’s putting the shove on, Nelson College were better in open play. Head coach Jono Phillips says he was impressed with prop Sione Mafi’s performance.

“I thought he had an immense first half. He’s our boy down from Wel-
