Nelson is sinking Kate Russell Reporter

kate@nelsonweekly.co.nz

Nelson sank up to 20mm after the Kaikoura earthquake says a GNS scientist, on top of the annual 2-3mm the region is normally sinking.

Wellington-based geodetic scientist Sigrun Hreinsdottir says that while people needn’t panic, it is something residents and local councils need to consider when thinking about long-term planning.

Sigrun says there are 200 recording stations throughout New

Zealand run by LINZ and Geonet that continuously monitor land movement, including three in the Nelson region.

“The stations in Nelson showed a drop ranging from between 1020mm after the Kaikoura earthquake. It’s not a huge change, but it is significant,” she says.

page 26

“But our monitoring has also shown that the Nelson region has been subsiding 2-3mm per year since we first started observing the area in 2004.

“This is something that is of huge interest to scientists, and it is important when we think about sea levels changing too.

“2-3mm a year may only sound like a little bit - but when you add on the sea level rise on top of that...”

A recently published paper by GNS Science shows that last November’s magnitude 7.8 earth-

Mountain of mouthguards Andrew Board Andrew Marriot is in the business of a perfect smile, so protecting the teeth of local kids with free mouthguards is a perfect fit.

The long-standing sponsorship of free mouthguards for junior rugby players between Nelson Orthodontics and Tasman Rugby Union has now ticked over a couple of milestones: ten years and more than 50,000 mouthguards donated.

Andrew says he’s delighted to help protect the teeth of Nelson kids.

“As the only orthodontists in town, we feel a community responsibility and we really want to focus on stuff that involves youth, dental health and giving back to the community.

The feedback we get from some of the clubs is that it saves the parents money and some have even said it’s the difference between a kid playing sport or not because buying a mouthguard is just an extra expense.”

As junior rugby prepares to kick off for another season after the school holidays, new Tasman Rugby Union rugby development officer Mark Cochrane says mouthguards will soon be handed out to local clubs and schools.

“It has been a great, long-standing relationship. We know mouthguards prevent concussion, den-

Andrew says all JAB players from aged six to under 18 level receive a free mouthguard in the Nelson and Tasman regions.

“It’s really neat to know we’re helping so many youth in the region.

It’s a bit like having a helmet on your bike, isn’t it? Every kid needs one.”

Nelson Orthodontics also makes custom mouthguards for the Tasman Makos each season.

Nelson’s Church St is set to become a social dining hub with construction earmarked to start in April 2018 at a cost of $575,000.

Nelson City Council’s works and infrastructure committee have unanimously agreed to move forward with detailed design and construction of transforming the street into a one-way pedestrian-oriented environment.

In June last year, Church St business owners and landowners approached council with a view of working together to improve the key inner city laneway, which is home to Kush Coffee, East St Cafe and Nicola’s Cantina.

A report to council last month said the project would “develop the character of the street, forming a better connection between city hubs and improving the walkability and permeability of the city.”

Pedestrians will have priority over vehicles with one-way traffic flow for the full length

Church St property owners and businesses will also be able to “put their own stamp” on the street, but will still be responsible for leasing outdoor areas and providing appropriate street furniture.

There will also be an opportunity to close the street on a temporary basis for a diverse range of festivals, markets, activities and events.

As well as an increased outdoor dining space, wider paths and more vegetation are planned – but the $50,000 overhead catenary lighting, which was

shown in the concept design, was not included as it did not fit into the project’s budget.

Several councillors and mayor Rachel Reese questioned the move at the March 30 meeting, saying that lighting was “important for the city.”

“I would hope that, as officers work through the process, the businesses and owners are prepared to make some financial contribution there. It may mean some adjustment to the other items to allow this to go through,” she said.

Council will now consult with Church St businesses on the lighting as well as seek feedback from the wider public.

Building apprentice Andy Wells can add another notch to his tool belt following a convincing win at the New Zealand Certified Builders (NZCB) Apprentice Challenge at ITM Nelson on Saturday.

Andy’s workmate Thomas Ashley also placed third in the competition.

Altogether, seven apprentices from across the region donned their tool belts and safety gear for the annual test, to build an outdoor table and bench seating.

They competed under a fixed timeframe, and the final product was judged on workmanship, skill and time management. The outdoor table and bench seating was one of the trickiest challenges yet, as it tested each apprentices’ attention to detail, with carpentry joints included in its design not typically included in an outdoor furniture set from a retailer.

NZCB Chief Executive Grant Florence noted the impressive calibre of skills on show.

“Fostering more quality apprentices is critical for the future of New Zealand’s growing building industry, especially in context of our present construction boom and current shortage of qualified builders to meet demand, and is certainly a responsibility NZCB takes seriously,” says Grant.

“It’s great to see so many of Tasman’s local apprentices taking up the opportunity to participate in the NZCB Apprentice Challenge, and NZCB is pleased to give back to the community by way of donating the finished products, with materials sponsor ITM.” Andy won a Makita Drill and Driver combination kit and a $300 ITM gift voucher, and will represent Tasman in the NZCB Apprentice Challenge Final to be held at the NZCB Annual Conference in Auckland on 26-27 May. The NZCB Apprentice Challenge in Tasman was one of 14 events being held simultaneously across New Zealand on 8 April. It is run

by NZCB and its Industry Training Association Building (ITAB), in conjunction with ITM.

He disappeared like a needle in a haystack and it’s hard on the family and the people who have searched all these years.”

The detective, Sergeant Mark Kaveney: “I’ve been the officer in charge of the case since the day Leo went missing. From my perspective, it’s a relief for the family. Obviously, there is still an identification process that needs to be completed, but it has been an absolute nightmare for his family for the last seven years,

The journalist, Nelson Weekly editor Andrew Board: “It was the most surreal day.

“Later in the day the crowds grew as the recovery teams slowly worked on the car. Some were sitting on park benches with their children. Some where there drinking, watching, waiting.

“It was dark when the car was finally lifted. I walked past the Styx restaurant, which was busy and bustling. The sound from it was chatter and laughter. A few dozen metres down the wharf the sounds were hushed, solemn.

About 30 people crowded to the security fence to catch a glimpse of the car as it was lifted. Media held their cameras high, others strained their necks. Past the security fence you could see Leo’s parents watching on.”

Most importantly, the mother, Charlotte Lipp, who could not be reached by the Weekly but simply said this to the New Zealand Herald: “All parents could imagine what it’s been like.”

nelson L ve Fire rips through Richmond business: A fire, allegedly lit by two youths late Friday night, has damaged Richmond businesses PC Systems and Rowan Dron Electrical. The arson is believed to have been started by a 10 and 13-yearold who lit a fire in a rubbish bin leaning against the back of PC Systems at around 11pm. Freedom campers staying in the carpark behind the businesses alerted police to the fire, allowing them to catch the alleged arsonists almost immediately. “It’s the one time you say kudos to freedom campers,” says Rowan Dron.

Senior Sergeant Stuart Koefoed says the two youths lit the fire behind PC Systems and then went to the Nelson Coachlines depot, also on McGlashen Ave, and attempted to light a fire near a Kiwi Experience bus before being caught by police.

Chief Executive of Rātā Foundation, Louise Edwards, says one collaborative project which stood out was the Nelson Environment Centre (NEC) Kai Rescue service. The service will act as a ‘logistics hub’ collecting food for donor food retailers and producers and redistributing it to charities. “Kai Rescue is about rescuing food which is good enough to eat but not good enough to sell, and redistributing it to those groups who work with our most vulnerable and in need.”

The average value in the city is now $522,201. Values also continue to rise in the Tasman district with an increase of 16.3 per cent over the last year and 2.7 per cent over the past three months.

The average value in the district is now $512,754. With such strong value level growth over the past 12 to 18 months, affordability has become a major issue.

Man charged with fleeing police: A 28-year-old man is facing several charges after fleeing from police last Monday.

The man was initially spotted sitting in a parked vehicle outside Waimea Old Boys Rugby Club. “As police approached, the man lifted his head and began driving towards the officers, and the officers had to take evasive action to avoid being hit,” says Sergeant Dale Smith. “The man then fled from police, crashing his car a short time later on the corner of Lower Queen Street and Swamp Road.” The man is facing charges of driving while disqualified, reckless driving, aggravated assault, and other driving and drug-related charges.

War medals Locally Owned and Operated

Simon Bloomberg Reporter

simon@waimeaweekly.co.nz

The sharp eye of a machine operator at the Richmond refuse transfer station and skilled detective work from a retired service man have helped reunite a former RAF pilot with the medals he was awarded for serving in WWII and the Middle East.

Loader driver Yogi Takimoana miraculously found the medals and RAF wings among a pile of rubbish while working at the transfer station last month.

They were handed into the police who then notified the RSA which immediately called on the expert services of Nelson's Ian Martyn to find their rightful owner.

Ian has reunited 131 military medals with the recipients or their families since setting up Medals Reunited New Zealand in 2014. He is the RSA's go-toperson when lost medals turn up, often in the most unusual circumstances, and only needed 36 hours to reunite the medals with the owner, Reg Clarke of Richmond.

Ian says he recognised the

medals allowing him to narrow the search to "someone who had served as a pilot in the Reg Clarke RAF, either during WW2. an Englishman or New Zealander who had lived or retired in Nelson, or if they had passed away, belonged to one of their descendants. It also helped that one of the medals was engraved with Reg's initials and surname, although Ian says it still required extensive research because there was no first name or service number and there are hundreds of RJ Clarkes around the world. "I started with on-line UK military archives and family trees to try and determine who RJ Clarke was, when and where he had served – nothing however was easily accessible.

I then checked the obvious and went through the Nelson phonebook but there was nothing there so checked local cemetery records.

"That didn't turn up anything either so I then looked at old electoral rolls for the Tasman

and Marlborough areas. It was here I found Reginald John Clarke who was a listed as a civil pilot living in Blenheim in 1969.

"That was the connection I needed – a pilot who had lived in the local area. It turned out he'd been a pilot with Safe Air, but on checking the phone book there was still no RJ Clarke listed although there was a J I Clarke at the same address.

"I thought that Reg had probably passed away but when I phoned Reg’s ex-wife Janet answered and, to my surprise, said he was still alive and gave me his contact details in Nelson. Janet said they had emigrated from England in 1966 after Reg had retired from the RAF to pilot Bristol Freighters for Safe Air at Woodbourne”.

When Ian took the medals around to Reg to confirm their identity, he says the retired RAF pilot was astounded. Ian's colleague Brian Ramsay offered to mount the medals for free and they were handed over in an emotional ceremony last Thursday.

He says he was initially "baffled" when Ian informed him about his medals. "I didn't realise they were lost so I was quite baffled," Reg says. "I keep them in a cupboard in my bedroom but they must have got mixed up with some other things when we cleaned up the house.

"I'm delighted the gentleman found them and took the

pre-Suez Crisis, piloting him around all countries of the Middle East and Mediterranean.

Although Ian says the 36 hours he needed to reunite Reg with his medals was relatively fast work, he has taken as little as 21 minutes. In contrast, the longest Ian has taken "so far" is two years to reunite a Boer War medal, found in an old house in Northland, with the descendant family living in Northumberland in the UK. Ian says the medals have

trouble to hand them in. I didn't get them for anything heroic or anything like that but I do value them - they represent a big part of my life."

Reg was awarded the 193945 War Medal and 1918-62 General Service Medal with clasps for the Near East and Canal Zone. He also had the prestigious appointment of personal pilot for the then Chief of the Imperial General Staff, Lieutenant General Sir Gerald Templer, the Prime Minister’s adviser

WW1 statue to be unveiled at Marsden cemetery Jessie Johnston Reporter

jessie@waimeaweekly.co.nz

A new WW1 memorial will be unveiled this weekend at Marsden Valley cemetery, recognising the sacrifices made by local soldiers during the Great War. The idea was hatched around two years ago after Nelson’s Mason Robinson, a sergeant in the Royal New Zealand Airforce, was present when Helen Clark unveiled a statue of a WW1 soldier in Sydney. “The next time I came back

to Nelson and played a Last Post, I looked around and thought, our soldiers haven’t got much recognition for all the efforts that they’ve put in, I think we should do something along the lines of a war memorial,” says Mason.

Since then he has led the project on behalf of the Nelson Returned Services Association. A statue was completed by Oamaru artist Don Patterson in June last year and depicts a WW1 soldier resting on arms reversed. “The position he’s taking is one of being absolutely buggered, the expression

on his face depicts a hard day out in the field, it’s really one of genuine bewilderment at what’s just happened in battle,” says Mason.

Nelson City Council contributed $20,000 towards the statue, while Lottery provided Nelson RSA with a grant of $30,000, however, when it came time to find a place for the statue to rest, Mason saw there was a lot of work left to do to create the war memorial. “I looked around and thought, you can’t put this statue in the current surrounds, so we had to bring them up to a respectful level that

our soldiers deserve,” says Mason.

The construction of the war memorial has been undertaken by New Zealand Army engineers from Burnham military camp and is based on a WW1 bunker.

The memorial will be unveiled on Saturday, April 15, exactly 100 years after prominent Nelsonian, John Herbert Cock was killed in action while serving in the Royal Flying Corp. “The biggest impact on me has been the amount of buy in from the community and how much people have contrib-

uted, donated and supported it, it needs a lot of organising but it’s meant a lot of satisfaction in pulling it all together,” says Mason.

Beginning at 11am, the Minister of Veterans Affairs, David Bennett, will unveil the statue and inspect a troop of local cadets and New Zealand Defence Force, there will be a fly over by the Royal New Zealand Air Force display team.

The public are welcome to attend the unveiling, although it is asked that people be at the cemetery no later than 10:30am.

We can't automatically blame the parents without knowing the circumstances. I think getting the kids to help repair the mess is a good idea, also giving them some compulsory volunteer work so they can learn the value of doing good in the community and be around good influences. They need to realise the gravity of the situation they have caused as well.

DOC celebrate 30 years Brittany Spencer Reporter

The Department of Conservation celebrated its 30th birthday at Fairfield House on April 1st, and there to mark the milestone was local marine ecologist Andrew Baxter.

Andrew joined DOC as a young man in October 1987, a mere three months after the the New Zealand Forest Service, Department of Lands and Survey, and the Wildlife Service first joined together to create DOC. “I didn’t finish uni looking for a job in conservation but conservation found me, and while I’ve had job opportunities elsewhere, working for DOC in Nelson has been a pretty cool thing to do.

“There are a few of us originals still around, I joined DOC when I was 28, I’m now 57, and I’ve been in Nelson working for DOC that whole time.”

Andrew says the department has come a long way and has achieved a lot within the region since it began on April 1, 1987.

“That starting point was a time of DOC finding itself and that took two or three years, but it’s been great to see.

Department of Conservation marine ecologist Andrew Baxter, is one of the originals at DOC Nelson and on April 1, he and his colleagues celebrated the department’s 30th birthday.

Photo: Brittany Spencer.

“We’ve got a great bunch of people who are really dedicated, work hard, are committed to what DOC is all about, and people who really make a difference.

“The highlights for me would be the marine reserves I’ve helped establish like Whanganui Inlet, Tonga Island Marine Reserve, Horoirangi Marine Reserve and the Long Island - Kokomohua Marine Reserve.”

While he has been given many titles over the decades, Andrew says his role is about bridging the gap between science and management. “I’ve always been

involved in the science and technical side of work for the department, so anything to do with marine mammals, marine reserves, a lot of aquaculture and resource management.”

Andrew says, while he and his colleagues take great pride in seeing people enjoying all the projects they’ve worked on, they are still focused on preparing for the future.

“It's hard work, the challenges we’ve had in the past have been big but, scarily enough, they might pale in significance to the big challenge of climate change that we are going to face."

“Finding a simple faith that empowers my life.

To me, that’s been my greatest adventure.”

Kids art to brighten up Nelson Locally Owned and Operated

Nelson’s youngest budding artists are being encouraged to get out their paintbrushes, crayons and pencils and create something that will help brighten up the city.

Arts Council Nelson is running a competition called ‘And This My Picture - Children's Public Art Project’, which is open to children aged 11 years or younger who live in Nelson City Council wards.

Eight winning artworks will be selected to be reproduced in large format and framed for public display in Nelson and possibly Stoke, thanks to The Framing Rooms.

Each artist will also receive a prize.

The eight winning artworks will be rotated, with each one being displayed for a two-month period, at a site which is yet to be confirmed.

Arts Council Nelson Community Arts Manager Lloyd Harwood says he is very excited about the project.

“This initiative publicly celebrates creativity in one of its purest forms, providing an inclusive platform for our youngest community members to contribute,

and add, to Nelson’s rich and diverse culture,” he says.

The world of science is a fascinating one, which is probably why people flocked to Cawthron Institute’s open day on Sunday.

Their last open day in 2015 attracted around 850 people and organisers estimate they managed the same, if not more, this year. “This year Cawthron decided to open its doors to the public to show them the work we’re doing in the freshwater space,” says spokesperson Nicole Taber. “We have many very talented fresh water scientists and we thought it was important to share that science with the community, there’s

a speech on the energy content of freshwater invertebrates and we just thought that sounded really good, so we thought what a good opportunity to come and have a look,” says Lance Wakefield. “You don’t really hear too much about Cawthron out in the general public, so when they hold this sort of thing I think it gives people the opportunity to see what they actually do and the good that they can do for Nelson, it’s pretty important. They should do a lot more of them.”

Entry into the open day was free, however, if anyone wishes to support Cawthron Institute and the work they do, donations can be made to the Cawthron Foundation. Details at www.cawthron.org.nz.

Held at the institute’s site on Halifax St East, the open day saw people ‘follow the river of fish’ to learn more about healthy freshwater and the science done at Cawthron. People were free to explore seven stands that featured information and hands-on activities on areas including freshwater plankton, urban stormwater, water bugs, freshwater fish and their habitat, algae and river health. Cawthron scientists also gave presentations throughout the day on a wide range of topics. “[My son] Cameron has a keen interest in science and we saw that one of the first things was

Running, rolling and strolling to Saxton

style

Simon Bloomberg Twenty-one Nelson Prep students ticked another one off the list as they scootered, ran, walked and, in Connor Matthews' case, hobbled to the finish of the City2Saxton on Sunday.

The students joined 251 other runners, strollers and rollers in the annual Sport Tasman event, starting at the Victory Community Centre and following the Railway Reserve and Tasman Great Taste Trail to the finish at Saxton Field. Although Prep's scooter riders set the pace, finishing in just over 35 minutes, Connor produced the most impressive performance, completing the course on crutches.

Teacher Dian Edmondson says Connor, who had injured his knee mountainbiking, was determined to complete the City2Saxton because it was part of the William Pike Challenge. Dian says the students have to complete a number of tasks and events for the challenge and Connor was determined not to pull out.

"They have to make a commitment to finish all the challenges so it's good to see Connor do it," Dian says "The challenge is aimed at getting kids who don't usually get into the outdoors to become more active.

"So far they've been rafting on the Buller, mountainbiked the Great Wilderness Trail, run up the Maitai and now they've done City2Saxton. They really love it - they like being part of a team."

The students also have to complete 20 hours of community service as part of the challenge and take up a new sport or hobby.

City2Saxton organiser Jane Miles says she was delighted the Nelson Prep students entered the event which attracted people of all ages and abilities. Jane says the modes of transport were also varied with people walking, running, and scooting, skateboarding and rollerblading the 10km.

Four-year-old Robbie Freeman was the youngest competitor, biking the course alongside his dad Mark, who ran. Nelson speed skater Xan Twissell recorded the fastest time, finishing in 33 minutes.

Nelson netball will look to keep trending upwards in 2017.

After several years of growth in all areas of the sport, Nelson Netball Centre manager Lindsay Filiata says she wants to strike the perfect balance between getting all ages from all walks of life into the game.

“It’s important we keep finding ways to introduce and re-introduce the game to people of all ages.”

The Future Ferns have been a big part of getting young children introduced to netball without the usual pres-

sures.

From Year 7 players up, there will be 162 teams competing on the netball courts at the Saxton netball facilities ,both indoors and out, this season.

“That number is pretty steady with last year and this year it’s all about consolidating and finding new ways to keep people engaged.

“We are fortunate that we have high exposure as one of New Zealand’s leading female sports, it’s just a case of maximizing that as best we can.”

It is a bit of a disjointed start to the

“It’s great to have Golden Bay represented again this year at the senior level and it means players coming from further afield know they will get a game.”

The premier grade remains relatively the same as last year.

Prices Pharmacy beat Stoke by 12 goals in the decider last year.

School holiday skill sessions are also in the works with one to be held in the April holidays so junior players can brush up

on their skills before the season begins.

The Nelson Netball Academy has also been running, for more than 45 talented young players, from October through to a matter of weeks ago.

Not only has it given the 15-to-17-yearolds a chance to improve their skills on the court but they were able to learn key mental skills as well as the value of nutrition.

“The hope is that we can identify players who can make our age-group representative teams and give them a pathway.”

Nelson Heat earn shock bronze at baseball nationals

SporTS

The Nelson Heat have won a remarkable bronze medal at the Ripken Under-13 National Baseball tournament after a slurry of stunning results at the week-long event at Rosedale Park in Auckland.

The team was only put together six months ago as baseball got a foot-hold in Nelson through former softball pitch Marty Grant and the allocation of Champion Green as a place for a baseball diamond.

The Heat went undefeated in their three pool games, beating Howick-Pakuranga 17-3, Central City 20-6 and Counties 15-3.

Nelson had four batters in the top 11 averages after pool play with Astin Knowles, Reegan Lawton, Nikau Pouaka-Grego and Matt Lowe proving super productive at the plate.

Astin and Matt were also in the top 10 pitchers rankings, proving they were multi-skilled players.

The team beat Bayside 18-3 in the quarter-final to set-up a

Football: The Tasman United women’s team have a share of the Mainland Premier League lead after a 4-0 win over Parklands United at Christchurch’s English Park. Geen Gross, Tianna Williams, Holly Moffat and Amelia Abbott all found the back of the net as Sports Therapy Tasman surged to a three-way tie at the top of the league with Coastal Spirit and Cashmere Technical. The Nelson Suburbs men’s team in the MPL lost 1-0 to Universities in Christchurch.

However, the Heat showed plenty of resilience to finish third thanks to a 7-0 win over Howick-Pakuranga.

Marty says the team had no expectations for their performance when they arrived at the tournament, but as the runs piled up and the wins mounted so did the pressure.

“We wanted them to play their best but have fun.

“Once we started beating teams that were favoured to beat us, then the mood changed.

“Suddenly we’re averaging 18 runs a game."

Marty says things did not go the way he had hoped in the semi-final but he was thrilled they bounced back in the bronze medal match.

“It’s been a heck of a ride through so much unchartered territory this year and when we got to that semi-final, I felt that caught up with us and we beat ourselves.”

Marty says he is now keen to grow the game in the Nelson and Tasman region and is eager for some coaching help, as well as more players to give the game a go.

CriCket: Wakatu’s Campbell McLean won the Vonda Edwards trophy for the top run scorer in the Nelson senior cricket competition. Stoke-Nayland’s Dylan Eginton won the Syd Guppy Cup for top wicket taker. Campbell scored 491 runs this season while Dylan took 35 wickets. rugby: Nelson remained unbeaten in the NPD Tasman Trophy senior rugby competition with a 55-7 victory over Kahurangi. Waimea Old Boys beat Wanderers 39-28 while Marist edged Stoke 29-23.

In Division two action; Waimea Old boys beat Wanderers 24-7, Collingwood overpowered Huia 26-0, Stoke edged Marist 25-18; Riwaka downed Nelson 43-24 and Country Combined beat Waimea Old Boys Under-19 44-10.

Kassidy keen on Canberra experience Jacob Page Kassidy Gibbins is making the most of every opportunity her favourite sport gives her.

The 13-year-old will be one of 24 Nelson Bays Volleyball under-14 players who will travel to the Canberra Volleyball Festival later this month.

Nelson Bays Volleyball is sending three teams of eight – two girls and one boys team - to the week-long event on April 19.

The squad will stay at the Australian Institute of Sport and face some of the best young volleyballers from Australia Kassidy first started playing when she was in year 5 at St Jo-

seph’s School.

“I thought I’d give it a go, it looked like fun and my cousin played it and she enjoyed it."

The diminutive Nelson College for Girls pupil says she loves the team aspect.

“I really enjoy passing and setting as well as digging in and saving points.”

Kassidy is part of the NCG 9A team. Nelson Bays Volleyball coach Allan Brodie says being invited to the AIS to work with their staff as well as Volleyball Australia staff will be a treat.

Allan says there will likely be a mixture of indoor and beach volleyball with a trip to Ulladulla likely to see the teams

play the local high school teams before they return to Canberra to attend an Anzac Day service.

“Volleyball here is going very well in Nelson and we have 200 teams competing weekly."

Allan says he’s keen to grow a relationship between Nelson Bays and ACT volleyball.

“We want our kids to have opportunities within the sport so that they can make an informed decision.”

Kassidy wishes to thank Sun City Panel and Paint, Dollar Save Auto Centre, Fairview Window Works and Exceed Window and Door Maintenance Ltd, Urban Eatery and Frontrunner for their support.

Giants find spark with Kyle Adnam

TUESDAY 11 April 2017

Hampden Street School earn medal haul at swimming champs Hampden Street School were the big winners at the firstever Nelson Tasman Primary School regional swimming championships at Richmond Aquatic Centre on Sunday.

The event hosted 120 swimmers from 25 schools.

Hampden Street School swimmers won the 100 metre freestyle relay and topped the medal tally, winning eight gold, eleven silver and five bronze.

Olivia Huata-Findlay won all four of her events and her brother Wilson claimed three silver and a bronze. Tom Perkins won two races and claimed a silver and a bronze.

Oliver Morton won a gold and three silvers, Sam Dukes achieved a gold and two silver medals, Luisa Lata won a silver and two bronze medals, Emily Chadderton got a silver medal and Ryan Thelin won a bronze.

Henley School came second in the relay and won five gold medals and a silver medal, with William Seymour claiming four gold medals and sister Maddie winning the other.

Loretta Bradley achieved a silver medal in the 25m but-

Jacob Page New Giants import Kyle Adnam may have provided a spark with his arrival but a win for the franchise still seems a wee way off.

Kyle answered an SOS from coach Alan McAughtry and has certainly added more hustle in his two matches with the club after the departure of American Joe Slocum.

However, Sunday’s 81-63 loss to the Hawke’s Bay Hawks – a team which had lost its last 24 matches - proves that the winless Mike Pero Giants have a long way to go to avoid the wooden spoon.

Dion Prewster hit a game high 25 points while Kyle added 11 points and five assists.

After just arriving at the club, the 23-year-old believed he could add value and push himself beyond his limits.

“The chance to be an import in a league like this, at this point of my career, is fantastic.

“That game was there to be won, I had a couple of chances and we made a few

Mike Pero Nelson Giants import Kyle Adnam impressed on debut with his work-rate and hustle in the Giants'100-94 overtime loss to the Southland Sharks. Photo: Evan Barnes/Shuttersport. defensive mistakes.

“I’m not going to back down; I want the ball in my hands in the fourth quarter and in overtime, that’s what it’s all about, being a point guard.”

Kyle has had stints in the Australian NBL and seems to be finding his feet with Melbourne United at that level.

The Giants continue their road trip with two games over Easter Weekend.

They play the Super City Rangers in Auckland on Saturday before travelling to face the Taranaki Mountainairs on Sunday.

St Joseph's gained four gold, two silver and five bronze; Birchwood School won three gold, two silver and a bronze; Motueka South achieved three gold and a bronze; St Pauls gained a gold and a silver and Bianca Honey from Collingwood School won a gold in the 25m backstroke event.

Both Tahunanui and Clifton Terrace Schools won a silver and a bronze each.

Bronze medals also went to Mapua School (3), Nelson

Central (2) and one each to Brooklyn, Enner Glynn, Ngatimoti, and Tapawera Schools.

The Swimming Nelson Marlborough Committee are thrilled the champs were well supported by schools and would like this event to become an annual fixture, provided sponsorship can continue to be found. The committee thanks Stephen Fryer of Nelson Pest Management Training and Services Ltd for sponsoring this inaugural event.

At least a couple of these drivers from the red and black town will mix it up with the rest of the field with the likes of Malcolm Ngatai ex New Zealand champion and one that the Nelson locals love to hate will make an appearance while he has support from the ex Stockcar driver Brad Rosewarne. Another to watch in the Superstock class will be the winner of the South Island Superstock series Jamie Hamilton.

If things aren’t going Jamie’s way he is another that doesn’t mind using his front bumper. A great twenty two car field has entered this two day meeting which is great for a

class that has struggled a little for numbers this season.

The Three Quarter Midgets have had a resurgence this season with local numbers on the rise like never been seen before. Sixteen of these little flyers take the track for their Easter Championship with only a few out of towners entered the locals should be able to make it their own. The big brothers of the TQ Midgets are the Midgets and with only a handful of these racing here at the Milestone Homes Top of the South speedway this season it’s great to see a decent field of these here to end the season. Jayden Worthington is here all the way from Auckland plus once again a handful of cars are here from Christchurch including Jeremy Webb who has had a great season after making the move up from the TQ ranks.

This has been the entertainment class the last couple of seasons and the crash and bash brigade will be sure not to disappoint at this meeting as we may see some payback hits come to fruition to end their season. Speaking of paybacks the Streetstocks are notorious for paybacks at the Easter meeting as for most of the drivers it’s their last meeting before they get all winter to fix their cars. Will this be a Christchurch vs Nelson smashfest?

One thing is for sure entertainment is most definitely guaranteed.

Sidecars will also share the top billing with once again saving their

best for last as the line-up of bikes is impressive with the pairings of Russel Stuart and Andrew Parker from Auckland, John Hannan and Bryce Rose from Whanganui as well as bikes from Christchurch, Invercargill and Blenheim joining our locals. A big field of thirteen bikes have entered so the competition will be fierce as the “chariots of doom” wrestle elbow to elbow to gain their bragging rights.

Racing one night each will be the Production Saloons and the Youth Ministocks and with good numbers once again in both. A big field of kids in the Ministocks is heartening as it’s been the catalyst for so many drivers’ careers here in Nelson. An interesting entry is

Holly, Ocean and Lydia are all headed to the event for the first time and they will be medal threats over the sprint distances.
