Patrollers want funding Andrew Board Editor

andrew@nelsonweekly.co.nz

Nelson’s Community Patrollers say they are fed up spending their weekends volunteering to keep

Nelson safe without any financial support from Nelson City Council.

Nelson’s Community Patrol was originally founded as Night Watch in 1994 after the brutal murder of Kevin O’Laughlin in

Montgomery Square car park.

At the time the council supported the group by lending them a car, paying costs including petrol, appointing a liaison officer and lending the use of the council chambers for meetings. Funding

dried up several years ago, despite funding for similar groups like the Street Ambassadors continuing.

The Nelson Community Patrol is one of 150 around New Zealand and it also one of the few that

doesn’t attract support from its local council.

Community Patrols in Richmond and Motueka are funded by the Tasman District Council, with

Brittany Spencer The fish and chip shop owner who pulled an elderly man from Nelson Haven on Monday morning says he’ll “fall apart” if he was to meet his family.

“I just feel so bad for them. He went out for a walk and they’d be wondering way he didn’t come back. It’s just horrible,” says Roy Gray, co-owner of The Sands Fish & Chip shop.

Roy was driving with his partner Bruce Maxfield to Nelson along Rocks Rd at about 10.15am when Roy spotted a body floating in the water. He pointed it out to Bruce who, at first, didn’t believe him.

“When we were driving to the bank I said to Bruce, ‘there’s a body floating in the water’, and he said, ‘bull&^%$’ but I could see it because it was out about 15 or 20 feet so I reversed up about 10 feet, slammed the brakes on and jumped out. I rang triple one and handed Bruce the phone and said, ‘we’ve got to get in there and try and get him out’, but they said ‘no, wait until police are there’.”

He and an officer then pulled the body out of the water but efforts to revive him were unsuccessful.

Roy says the man was recently in his fish and chip shop and says he was “a beautiful man”.

“I remember him coming in the shop two or three days ago and just having a wee chat with him, like I do with everyone who comes in, but when something like this happens that face sticks in your mind.

“I really just don’t know what to say, it’s sort of hard to put into words really but it will probably stay with me for a day

or a few and hopefully his family come in and I’ll probably lose the plot when they do.”

Roy says he went back to the location of the incident at low tide to try and find some ID. “I spent over an hour and a half looking right around the rocks and where he fell in, and I found what might be his sunglasses. I couldn’t find a wallet or any other sign of ID which is a shame.”

Police are appealing for information from the public. If you saw anything unusual at around 10.15-10.20am please call police on 546 3840.

Wairua Warrior now a world qualifier Jacob Page

Nelson-based Obstacle Course Race (OCR) the Wairua Warrior has gained accreditation as a World Championship qualifying event for its annual Wairua Warrior race in March.

For the first time, New Zealand’s OCR athletes will get the chance to qualify for the OCR World Championships on March 25 at the event which is held at Nelson’s

Ben Bolitho and Reid Carnegie have had to travel to Australia to qualify for the Obstacle Racing Course World Championships in Toronto, Canada, in October but with Nelson’s Wairua Warrior earning qualifying status they will be able to do it on home soil from now on.

Happy Valley.

The top three men and women at the Wairua Warrior will qualify to compete in the Pro division at the Obstacle Course Racing World Championships, while the top 10 men and women will qualify to compete in their respective age group divisions. The Championship will be held in Ontario Canada, October 13 to 15.

The Wairua Warrior has seen an increasing rise in participation since its inception, with numbers doubling in 2016 – interest has already been strong, particularly with international athletes from the USA, Canada and Australia booked to compete in this year’s race.

The race itself includes 6km and 12km distances, features more than 20 obstacles ranging from balance beams to barbed wire crawls, to sand bag carries, climbing walls and tyre drags, with some obstacles requiring pure physical strength, with others requiring endurance, balance and technical ability.

Event organisers Greg and Donna Witika created the Wairua Warrior to bridge the gap between “mud runs” and “obstacle course racing”.

Greg says he couldn’t have imagined how much the event has

“This is great news for our elite athletes but we also want the event to continue to grow with all people giving it a go.”

Reid Carnegie and Ben Bolitho are two Nelsonians who have already qualified for Canada, but they had to do it by competing in Australia.

Both men agreed this was an ex-

citing development for the event and the sport as a whole in New Zealand.

OCRWC athlete services manager, Rachelanne Gladden, says the organisation is thrilled to have the Wairua Warrior as part of its qualifying schedule.

“The athletes in New Zealand have proven themselves to be more than formidable, and to

have a race of the quality that Wairua Warrior brings to the table, offering them the opportunity to join us at OCR World Championships, is a terrific honour for us on the OCRWC team.

“We look forward to having a powerful showing of NZ competitors in 2017 from OCRNZ, thanks much in part to this new affiliation.”

Lover scammed out of $28k Locally Owned and Operated

Carolyne Meng-Yee/Herald on Sunday

A woman convicted of stealing $28,000 from her lover after concocting an elaborate scam involving multiple made-up people, says her only regret is meeting her victim.

Stacey Anne Webb was sentenced to 240 hours of community service when she appeared before Nelson District Court this week.

Webb, 26, defrauded businessman Brendan Santorini after duping him into giving her his credit card PIN number.

Her plot, which involved lying about being gang raped and terminally ill, saw police collect a 227-page book of text messages and 49 pages of emails purportedly written by the fake individuals.

But, in a fresh twist, it’s emerged that police investigated only after Santorini complained to the Independent Police Conduct Authority.

“It took me ages to convince the police to believe me – they said it was a civil matter,” said Santorini, 56. “They also told me they had lots of child abuse cases to deal with.”

Determined to get justice, Santorini and a friend turned detective, spending hours

gathering evidence. The file sat with police for two years before he contacted the IPCA. “I think the police could’ve done more sooner. When I got more proof – that’s when they did something.”

Detective Senior Sergeant Wayne McCoy said this week that fraud was important to the police but “low on the priority scale”.

“Violent crimes, child abuse and sexual violations must take precedent.”

Santorini said Webb had never apologised or repaid the money, but sent him one final text.

“I neva wuda spent any muny if i knew dis was gna happen! I wish every day dat I cud turn bck da clock bt I cnt so I owe u every cent I hate that dis has hapend and it breaks my heart every time I luk at u knwn wat u have dun 4 me. I wil neva stop lovn u no mata wat and I want 2 make this rite again. (sic)” Webb told the Herald on Sunday that everything said in court was “bulls***”.

Asked for her version of events, she said “things would get manipulated”.

And asked whether she had any regrets, she replied: “Meeting (Santorini).”

Santorini struck up a friendship with Webb in 2009 when he was a

He said Webb was having difficulty finding accommodation, so offered her a room. Soon after, the pair became intimately involved.

The solo father said: “Like most narcissists, she was charming to begin with and easy to get along with.”

Their relationship changed one night when Webb confided she’d been gang raped years earlier by four skinheads using a hammer handle contaminated with dirt and dog faeces.

Police have no record of the incident.

Santorini took eight months off “We had a few clashes and I had work to nurse her. Webb told him a gutsful of the lies. It was all life-saving surgery kept being bulls*** – it was too unbelievable that everyone was sick or too delayed.

Bridget Budget answers your questions

Q: I have got so many bills in the

mail this week. I didn’t think I had spent that much over the holidays.

It’s really stressful! How am I going to be able to pay everything?

A: There are a few steps that you can take to

regain a sense of control over your money, reduce your stress and reduce your debt.

 Know where your money is going each week and reduce your spending in order to address your debt.

Sorted.org.nz has an excellent ‘money-planner’ tool to help you work this out.  Sort your bills into an order of priority. Bills for essential things like rent and power should be paid first; high interest debts are the next priority; low interest or interest free debts such as those you might have with family are less of a priority.  Ask for help from family or friends.  Look for ways to increase your income.  Sell assets to free up some cash.  Call your creditors and make repayment arrangements.

Creditors are much more likely to be flexible if you talk to them instead of just stopping payments.  If you do not have enough money to go around all your creditors, talk to a Budget Advisor. They may be able to help you come up with a solution.

Driver caught twice after clocking 159kmh Simon Bloomberg

Police are disappointed at a driver who was stopped doing 159kmh near Springs Junction and then stopped again about an hour later for driving while his licence was suspended.

Nelson senior sergeant Grant Andrews says the driver was caught as a result of a “huge” police presence on the State Highways around Springs Junction, Murchison and St Arnaud. Police have been targeting SH7 and SH65 after the number of vehicles on those roads increased from about 1500 to 4200 a day following the closure of SH1 after the Kaikoura earthquake in November.

“Road policing staff from Tasman have made a huge commitment to that area,” Grant says. “We’ve got two staff permanently positioned at Murchison and we’ll be extending that out to the end of June, at this point.

“One guy recently went past the camera van at 159 and they called up the highway patrol who stopped him at Springs Junction. He had his licence suspended on demerit points we took him back to Maruia Motels so he could stay the night.

“We even dropped his car off there because he didn’t want to leave on the side of the road. But we went back there an hour later and the car had gone, so we radioed down the road and got him again and he was

Senior sergeant Grant Andrews. charged with driving while suspended. People like this are really disappointing - 159kmh is just not acceptable.”

However, Grant says the majority of drivers have been very patient and police are delighted there were no “significant injury crashes” on those roads over the busy Christmas period. He says the increased physical presence of police, as well as enforcement and education, are all helping to ensure traffic flows smoothly and safely though the roads. “We’ve given away pallet loads of water to drivers with drive safe messages on the bottles.

We are also giving coffee vouchers to drivers who we pull over, and we are talking to them about their driving. We’ve also stopped a few drivers for impeding traffic. In fact, I was down at the lake yesterday and I got one myself.

“A lot of them are unfamiliar with the roads, so it’s about education. If you see vehicles backing up behind you, there’s a reason, and it’s about bringing it to their attention.”

When an accident with a steam sterilizer left engineer Glenn Brewerton in hospital requiring skin grafts to a large part of his body, it gave him time to think what he wanted out of life.

It turns out what he wanted was to give to those less fortunate than him.

In the years since he has volunteered for Habitat for Humanity as a project manager, help bring a medical ship from Japan back to Auckland to be refitted and sent to the Pacific to provide free health care, all the while continuing to work as a contract engineer.

So when a part time role as general manager of Habitat for Humanity Nelson came up, he thought it could be his perfect job. And the Habitat board of directors thought so, too.

Glenn started in the role this month and his goal is to grow Habitat’s influence in the region, building more houses and expanding its influence in other ar-

you get to that point and it’s all worth it because you know this family have a home where they can raise their family.”

Habitat for Humanity is a worldwide organisation that aims to help people move into healthy homes. In Nelson, Habitat has built 23 homes over 20 years, while groups of Nelsonians have travelled around the world help build hundreds of homes in places like Nepal and Cambodia.

Rowan says the appointment of Glenn is a big step forward for the Nelson group.

“In the past, the board has been very hands-on and done a lot of the work themselves, which has been fantastic. But having a single go-to person is a part of our growth and strategic plan. With someone like Glenn on board we'll have more opportunity to have a bigger impact.”

If you’re interested in helping Habitat for Humanity, either as a volunteer or a business that would be keen to develop a relationship with the group, email Glenn on nelson@habitat.org.nz.

Arborists get to work after storm hits Brittany Spencer Clean-up crews have been working round the clock to remove fallen trees after Saturday’s storm.

Nelmac Marketing Coordinator Nic Stuart says the biggest damage occurred at Fairfield Park, Cleveland Terrace and to a big tree on Haven Rd. “Our arborists have been up to their knees in work,” says Nic. “The phone was ringing first thing on Sunday morning, it would have been about 4am that we started getting calls and we would have received 40 plus calls.

“Most of the really dangerous health and safety impacting jobs were done on the first day but there are a lot of less critical jobs that have been assessed and pushed back another day.”

Cleveland St resident Sally Warren took to her driveway with a chainsaw on Sunday morning, but the extensive debris and large poplar tree brought down in the storm were too immense.

The street has been restricted to resident access only as Nelmac arborists work to remove the tree and clear mother nature’s road block.

“It’s the worst wind I have ever felt,” says Sally.

“The house shook at one stage which it doesn’t do in earthquakes or anything, but it was the tree landing on the ground.”

Sally, who owns over an acre of native plantings, says there were originally three poplars standing tall beside the road.

“One fell down in 2002 and now this second one has fallen down, they are all incredibly rotten in the middle so they’re very vulnerable in stormy weather.”

Sally says that while all the residents have access to their homes, it’s going to be a big job to clear the street.

“There’s a great, huge log over the bank that they are going to have to bring a crane up to drag up, so it’s going to be quite a big job.”

SCHOOL HOLIDAY PUPPET SHOW: Shadow puppet performances, art and food will be taking over the Victory Community Centre this Thursday and Friday.

Performances by Roger Sanders (pictured left) and Akiko Miyamoto (right) are being supported by Gareth Cashin (centre) at the centre, as well as Nelson Creative Communities Fund, to give Nelson kids something fun to do as the school holidays draw to a close. Each morning at 10:30am there will be two shows – Momotaro (Peach Boy) and Mr Praying Mantis and Dragon Dance, followed by art activities. In the afternoons at 1:30pm you can see The Very Hungry Caterpillar and The Rat who Wrestled, followed by ‘create your own puppet performance’, (bring a shoe box and torch with you for this). Yummy food and drinks will also be available both days from 11am – 1:30pm, cash only. Tickets are $3.00 per person, or $15.00 per family (up to five people). You can pick up tickets at the community centre, or get yours on the day. Photo: Kate Russell.

Bagpipes and haggis at Fairfield The sound of bagpipes and the smell of haggis are set to fill the Fairfield House Meadow this Sunday evening.

It is the first time the City of Nelson Pipe Band has organised ‘Pipes in the Park’ – an outdoor Scottish summer concert that will also feature other local musicians too, not just pipes and drums.

There will be guest performances by Single Malt Barbershop Quartet, actor and story teller Roger Sanders, singer Jacquie Walters, Nicola Haines, a highland dancer, and the Kildunne School of Irish Dance.

It is being done as a fundraiser for the band, whose members range in age from 13 right through to 80.

Organiser Lucy Jackson, who is a piper and also secretary of the band, says it will be a “one of a kind” event. “It’s going to be a real fest of all things Scottish, right here in sunny Nelson,” she says. “We will also have some food and drink available, including real haggis, shortbread and berries and icecream.

“So bring a rug to sit on, and cash for the food and raffles.”

Pipes in the Park is on this Sunday, 29 January, 4-6pm, Fairfield House Meadow. Entry is $10 for adults, kids free. Cash only. If raining, it will be held on Monday, 30 January, (Nelson Anniversary day).

I was very happy with the customer service and range of products with selecting feature wallpaper for the house so it was an easy choice again to get ColourPlus to help me with drapes and blinds for the new build.

The team at ColourPlus were knowledgeable and had some great advice using my floor-plans, colour charts and flooring choices to narrow down options, initially from off the plan, through to selecting samples to complement our colours and floorings and importantly fit in with our build budget, finally installing them to a fantastic finish to our new home.

New app for reporting council problems: There's certainly a lot of graffiti around the city of late, what are the council doing about that? Ally J Melse.

Can we report on inappropriately placed freedom campers too? Will they do something about them?

Caroline Mew.

I know two small kids (and one or two big ones) who'll be keen to try this out when we visit.

Karen Wyatt-Epapara.

I had a look at the comments on this app and they weren't great, love the idea of it though and certainly is worth a try.

Brenda Kenny

Why would they be providing an app if they are not going to listen?? if they don't receive info they don't know if and where there is a problem..be positive people,this is a great move on their part... well done NCC. Jessie Cross.

Tourists spent $616M in region: Now you may all stop whining about freedom campers not spending here...yes, they need to sort their cleanup better...but They Do Spend when here!! Shawnee Burford-Young.

About time really, Christchurch have been doing this for many years and it works well. Does this include Tasman or is it just for Nelson area??

Marty Price.

Is that broken down ever further with how much freedom campers contribute and the costs associated dealing with the aftermath?....also, considering the article relates to flights in and out, thinking most freedom campers are in their $2 vans driving everywhere with their 2 minute noodles and cheap pasta....and, of course, good supply of alcohol.

This guy is bloody great, good on him for pushing to develop this under-utilised land, I said 20 years ago that there should be a fun park there, such potential, and slowly but surely he is building more attractions, good job! Rozane Stephenson.

The airport's in Tahuna, anyway. If NCC really wants to cry about semantics maybe they should move it to The Centre Of New Zealand. Or maybe they could be good sports for once and stop crying over someone else winning something. Sounds like someone got too much praise as a child. There's no award for participation here, NCC. Go home and cry to Mummy.

Josephine McKay. Haha....Nelson, time to get with the modern technology!!

Ann Gallot.

Nelson is still in the 1900's, like the NCC. Terry Beach.

Come on, Nelson, give Richmond a break...it's time you upgraded.

Raewynne Pedofski.

Freedom campers: Judging by the letters to the newspaper and other places on this subject, you would think Nelson was having a terrorist attack. I live on boat within 100 metres of the Council space created for campers.... yes, there are a handful or so of campers there, not 194 as suggested, with rampaging, drug-induced parties.

No pooing on the ground, no yelling, etc, all very quiet. Perhaps these visitors raise people's fears of disturbance to their secure middle-class comfort zones. So come on Nelsonians, how about a little tolerance and kindness! Robert Leslie.

Girl Guide groups grow in Stoke Nelson’s youngest Girl Guides now have place to call home in Stoke.

Pippins, which is for five and six year old girls, will be starting up in term one at the Stoke Memorial Hall.

Currently there is no Pippins group in the Nelson region, just Waimea.

Sophie Dennan, recruitment manager for Girl Guiding New Zealand says there has always been a “want” from the Nelson community, however they were unable to provide the unit for the younger girls until now. “We were missing out on a big opportunity for our younger ones. Often they have older sisters attending brownies and they want to be involved too, so it’s great we can offer this now,” she says.

The group will meet on Tuesdays from 4:45pm to 6pm. They will do a wide range of activities and learn how to become independent and confident. And, it’s all “girl led”, following their interests and personalities.

Stoke Guide Leader Donna Connell, who helped to establish the unit last year, says Girl Guiding is “very healthy” in Nelson.

The Stoke Girl Guide unit was only established at the end of last year. “I have nine girls in my unit, Designed but thereto is work heapsinof space. We’ d the really harmony with love some more girls.”

Colourplus paint palette, the In Style Donna says they are also looking for some collection features a stunning range more leaders - and you don’t have to be a womof beautiful to wants help bring an. “It’s great for wallpapers anyone who to learn your decorating dreams to life.great trainsome new skills and there are some ing opportunities available,” she says.

She was left to manage the studio

at age 30 when William moved to Sydney. William sold his building to Hallenstein Brothers in 1912, but Rose leased back the studios and bought out the business in 1914, continuing under the well-known Tyree name.

View of a group of Iron Duke sea scouts in fancy dress on board a vessel.

With its Victorian Italianate architecture, Fellworth House is one of Nelson’s most admired historic houses - and now 138 years after it was built, it is on the market once again, with its owners hoping to keep it local.

Built in 1879, Fellworth House was designed for one of Nelson’s early European colonists, John Sharp.

After his death in 1919, it was bought by the Cawthron Trust and opened as the Cawthron Institute using funds bequeathed by philanthropist, Thomas Cawthron. It accommodated laboratories, a library and a museum, and was visited by many dignitaries, including Sir Ernest Rutherford and HRH Prince Philip.

After the Cawthron Institute relocated to Halifax Street, the house became a wedding and events venue and a backpacker’s hostel, until it was bought

by Dave and Jill Harvey in 1999 who spent years restoring it.

The historic Fellworth House is up for sale.

In 2007 it was sold to its current owners – a family trust headed by dentist Aleksandra Markicevic.

As well as a dentistry business operating on site, Fellworth House has been used as a functions and events venue and also offers accommodation.

Aleksandra’s son, Miki Djukanovic, says they have listed the house privately on Trade Me as an “expression of interest”, and are already receiving quite a bit of interest.

Miki moved down from Auck-

land when they brought the house, and says there was an original vision to open a health and wellness centre.

Now they are moving onto new projects, with Miki, a personal trainer, planning on opening his own boutique gym, and Aleksandra looking at moving her dentistry. “We’d love to keep it in Nelson and sell it to somebody local,” says Miki.

“There is some cool history with this place and it would be nice to keep it in the spirit of Fairfield or Melrose House.”

RESTAURANT AND WINE BAR

Taking its name from the Roman god of wine, Bacco Restaurant and Wine Bar is a new addition to Nelson’s hospitality scene. Previously Café Affair, Terry Milton took ownership of the business on June 1 last year, the new name being just one of many changes the restaurant has seen during its transformation into Nelson’s first wine bar. After 22 years as a police detective, Terry had had enough of the not so nice side of policing and decided it was time for a change. “Wine was a passion, so I retrained and did a wine making and viticulture qualification before buying a block of land out in Hope. I planted grapes and established a vineyard. Two years later I launched a wine label and 10 years later, here we are,” says Terry. “Bacco is a great opportunity to showcase the boutique wines that I produce and also to create a food and wine match style menu for people to enjoy.” Milcrest produces nine wine varieties including Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, Pinot Gris, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Montepulciano, Dolcetto Merlot and Syrah, all of which can be tasted on site.

“The wine bar has been the one additional feature to the restaurant,” says Terry. “We have developed the upstairs area to have a premium range of boutique wines from around Nelson and favourites from New Zealand, as well as featuring some international growers. We really wanted to provide a place where people in the 30 and up age range can come to relax,

The Bacco Restaurant and Wine Bar team include, from left, Maia, manager Jo De Ranieri, Charlie, Darren, Andrea, Fabricio, Vito and owner Terry Milton.

enjoy great wine and food matches and listen to some live music, which is something that Nelson really lacks.”

In a bid to make the most of the wine bar and provide opportunities for people to learn more about how wine and food go together, Terry will be introducing bimonthly degustation dinners and a wine club meeting on the first Tuesday of each month.

“With the degustation dinners, we will look to secure a boutique producer to come along and present their wines on the evening, which is all about matching great food to great wine. The wine club meeting will also see a visiting winery come in to showcase their wines while we will provide canapes and treats that complement those wines.”

Numbers will be restricted to 40, so those interested will need to express their interest to avoid missing out.

As well as serving great boutique wines, Terry says a memorable experience for diners also requires a knowledgeable staff.

“We’ve been bringing them up to speed on how to recommend food with wine,” says Terry. “Rather than staff simply handing people a menu and wine list and leaving them to work it out for themselves, we want to take the headache out of selecting a great match and educate people at the same time.”

The menu has changed a lot since Terry has taken over, “we’ve got more

of an Italian/European theme going and an emphasis on gourmet platters with food and wine-match components. We’ve also introduced more of a sharing plate mentality with some of the dishes and, rather than having set breakfast, lunch and dinner menus, we have put together an allday menu that basically changes over at 3pm, but you can still order from the earlier part of the day. It’s working quite well.”

Examples from their mouth-watering menu include the Bacco vegetarian stack and Bacco big breakfast, prawn linguini, wild venison and confit duck. For dessert, try the white chocolate crème brulee or lemon panna Passionate about wine, Terry purchased Bacco as a way of showcasing local, national and international boutique wines, as well as offering people a food and wine-match style menu. cotta, or take advantage of or if you’re into sharing, order also included a repaint with their weekday special and get one of Bacco’s three tempting much of the old bric-a-brac two courses plus a house wine, platters including the tapas coming down to make way coffee or soft drink for just $36. platter, cheese board or gour- for more wine orientated déBacco features a kid’s play area met platter. cor, creating a modern, elegant and a designated kid’s menu, Changes to the business have feel that welcomes people to sit

“The site was what drew me to the business in the first place, it has that European/Italian feel to it with the bifold windows that open out, the wrought iron and the warmth of the Rimu timber. It lends itself well to this wine bar,” says Terry.

The fact that Bacco is Nelson’s first wine bar makes it a welcome addition to Nelson’s dining scene, “it really complements the other hospitality businesses we’ve got around us,” says Terry. People looking to enjoy a night out in Nelson certainly have some great options to choose from and will often have dinner at one of Bacco’s neighbouring restaurants before heading to the wine bar for a wine and dessert.

Alternatively, they may start out at the wine bar with a gourmet platter before heading off to another restaurant for the rest of the

However people choose to make the most of Nelson’s restaurants and bars, Terry is glad that Bacco and other businesses are all able to benefit each other.

“Plus, being located where we are at the top of Trafalgar St, next to such fantastic restaurants as the Cod and Lobster and Hopgood’s, pushes our team to do the very best we can,” says Bacco Restau-

rant and Wine Bar’s manager, Jo De Ranieri.

“The bar is set pretty high which means we have a commitment to providing a very high standard.”

Bacco Restaurant and Wine Bar is

also the perfect place to host work functions, birthdays, parties and anniversaries, as groups can hire the upstairs or downstairs areas exclusively, with catering options including set menus.

With fantastic food, wine and service, Bacco Restaurant and Wine Bar is dedicated to providing an unforgettable dining experience.

Live music can also be enjoyed on Friday and Saturday nights from 7:30pm to 10:30pm.

“It’s a challenge and I love a challenge,” says Terry. “It was a difficult decision to change the name because Café Affair has been here for 17 years, but we wanted a name that was synonymous with what we were trying to do and already people have returned for their third or fourth time in the last six weeks.”

Parents may feel like the school holidays have lasted forever, but for kids and teenagers their summer break has probably gone far too fast.

It’s time to think about heading back to school and making the necessary preparations such as buying new books and equipment, getting the uniforms clean and tidy and, for some, enrolling in a new place of education.

Whether your kids are toddlers, primary age or ready for college, the Nelson Tasman region offers an abundance of choice when it comes to picking an education provider that meets your child’s schooling requirements.

If you’re trying to decide on the best place to enrol your child this year, take a look at some of the schools and preschools included in this feature and get to know them all a little bit better.

Many of them are also happy to host a visit so you and your family can get a feel for the environment and meet the teachers.

ulum which they adapt to meet the individual needs of their students.

This is made possible thanks to small class sizes and fantastic teacher aide support. In addition to offering the full curriculum, the school provides an enrichment programme where students get to take part in horse riding, swimming and other community experiences.

Maitai School also differs in that it has a range of specialist services available including speech, music and occupational therapy, as well as a psychologist and physiotherapist.

Maitai School caters to students whose significant disabilities impact on their ability to learn in regular schools, however, students often get involved in activities within other schools, while Maitai’s experienced special needs teachers often reach out to local schools to provide support.

Singing, Dancing, Acting, Creating Friendships, Growing Confidence and Having Fun! Soundstage music and performing arts school has been a home away from home for Nelson’s talented kids for over 10 years. “When I first set up SOUNDSTAGE in 2006 my intention was to create a safe space where kids of all ages and abilities could come and spend time doing what they loved” says Jane Winter, the school's founder (and Nelson-raised herself).

While the school has certainly produced its fair share of successful performers, that’s not what makes this place so unique, “Are we proud of the graduates who have gone on to the West End in London, or to successful careers in dance, music or TV and film?

Of course, but more than just about getting better at singing or dancing or excelling in exams, Soundstage is about growing confidence, creating friendships and having fun”.

And as anyone who’s ever walked past the laughter-filled building can attest, the students certainly seem to agree!

The Fargher Academy of Dance provides professional, quality dance tuition in Jazz, Hip Hop, Ballet and Contemporary. Owner and teacher Trudy Fargher has a passion for dance with the curriculum carefully planned to help guide each student, while still giving each dancer the very best opportunity to achieve. The strong dance programme sees dancers achieve highly in competitions throughout New Zealand and students are encouraged to participate in shows and performances. In 2016 a group of dancers travelled and competed in Anaheim and Las Vegas, with another trip being planned for 2018. Guest teachers also give students an opportunity to experience a variety of teaching styles and choreography. Trudy recognises each dancer as an individual and aims to instil strong dance technique in a fun and supportive atmosphere. Classes are designed to build self-esteem, study dance technique and discover the joy of movement. Training often ignites a passion for dance and several dancers have continued with careers in Australia and New Zealand.

Bookings are now open for term one lessons in Riverside Pool’s SwimMagic programme. SwimMagic is New Zealand’s largest swim school and caters to

people of all ages. Whether your child is starting from the beginning, has the basics but needs practice, or you’re an adult who lacks confidence in the water, Riverside Pool can help. Their instructors are qualified and have a wealth of experience working with people to overcome their fear of the water and develop important water safety skills.

Kids enjoy SwimMagic lessons because they are fun, well organized and goal orientated with a water safety focus.

Lessons will run from Monday to Saturday, so for more information on booking a space give the team a call today on 546 3221. Riverside Pool also has some fantastic facilities to help you keep cool and have fun this summer, so head along during the public pool hours.

Peta Spooner has been introducing people to the joys of dance for the past 49 years. Her passion for teaching is shared by her fellow teachers at the Peta Spooner Academy of Dance, which aims to develop well-rounded dancers who are gracious, considerate and demonstrate a positive attitude. “Dance is a wonderful activity for children, capable of teaching confidence, poise and grace and the academy has a reputation for nurturing young talent, says Peta. "You can be confident your child will train in a recognised ballet curriculum. The academy has an excellent record for training teachers to degree status qualifications and these exams are recognised internationally. “We continue to produce students for the dance profession.” Many of the academy’s students, male and female, have gone on to top national dance schools and professional dance careers. At present there are former students at NZ School of Dance, Whitireia and Unitec. Peta and her team, which include highly-qualified and experienced teachers, who have been with the academy for many years, derive pleasure from teaching kids who may not be the best dancers, but who do it for the pure and simple pleasure of it.

The academy provides tuition in classical ballet, contemporary dance, modern

jazz and theatre craft. Students of all abilities get regular opportunities to perform on stage. For further information on the courses available at the Peta Spooner Academy of Dance, visit www.petaspooner.co.nz or phone 548 9890.

Nelson to bring in Chinese New Year Kate Russell Chinese New Year is the biggest celebration on the Chinese calendar, and it can be experienced right here in Nelson this Friday at Founders Heritage Park.

The event is being organised by The New Zealand Chinese Association Nelson Branch, and will include singing, dancing, kung fu shows, balloon twisting, face painting, bouncy castles and a fireworks display - all for a basic entry of two dollars.

Or, you can experience the full event with a catered Chinese meal for a $20 pre-purchased ticket.

Spokesperson Miaolin (Lillian) Li says New Year is a very big event for Chinese people at home, or living elsewhere in the world.

“It’s the big day for families to get together and wish each other good luck for the coming year,” she says.

She says food plays a big part in the celebrations, with dumplings the main traditional menu item in North China and glutinous rice cake in South China.

“We like to celebrate the event in Nelson for our own people who would otherwise feel homesick, and as an opportunity to promote Chinese culture and let Nelsonians enjoy it together with the entire Chinese community here.”

The Chinese New Year celebrations are at Founders Heritage Park on Friday, January 27, 5-8pm.

Tickets are available at Founders Heritage Park, Victory Community Centre and the New Asia Chinese Restaurant.

Nelson's Mike Rose has always had an affinity for the sea.

A keen surfer who has spent countless days chasing the waves around the world, Mike has swapped surf board for sailing yacht in recent years.

The builder by trade is still having a ball at sea, even with two artificial hips brought on by his daytime job.

The competitive streak is still there and, despite his first day of racing being a washout on Sunday, Mike is keen to win a few keeler races at the Nelson Weekly Regatta before the event ends on Sunday.

He's competed in every year of the event and believes he has the skills and crew to be a winner before the week has concluded.

Mike purchased his Bruce Farr-designed boat almost a decade ago, thanks to his brother's keen eye for yachts

as a career sailor and his wife's ability to write a cheque.

"My brother asked if I wanted to go halves in a yacht.

"It was about $50,000 so I scraped together the $25,000 we needed.

"We had enough overdraft to cover it but I was away in Indonesia surfing, so my brother put the deal together and my wife wrote the cheque and she's barely spent an hour on the boat ever since.”

Mike says he's suited to sailing as he just goes where the wind blows.

"I've always loved sea water and the serenity that goes with it."

Mike also enjoys the social side of sailing, whether it's cruising around the Abel Tasman region or sharing a drink with fellow competitors after a race to Wellington.

"We can forget how pleasurable it is to go out for a sail.

"Some Wednesdays years ago,

we used to do a thing where anyone who turned up could come and have a sail on one of the boats.

"It became quite a big thing the power of word of mouth was on display".

Mike and Missy Hearfield will compete in the first-ever Waikawa to Tarakohe 85 mile twohander race in March.

Five races for the trailer sailors and sports boats were raced on Saturday, before 30 knot winds and three metre swells cancelled racing on Sunday.

Eagle, crewed by Trudy Shield, Mark Howard and Hayden McCronie won the division one racing.

Coast to Coast legend Steve Gurney is at the regatta, sailing his boat as he made the trek from Queenstown.

Keeler racing got underway yesterday with yachts heading to Tarakohe today for a day of races and social interaction and dinghy races.

Speedway avoids weather to crown GP champ Jody Scott Former New Zealand champion Daniel Eggleton made the most of a one night Sprint Car New Zealand Grand Prix event in Nelson to take the title, on Friday.

Milestone Homes Top of the South Speedway adapted to the predicted weather bomb that drenched the Tasman area over the weekend to successfully run the Sprintcar Grand Prix, a key decision by the club to rejig the format to run the title on Friday night only meant Saturday’s rainout didn’t have an impact on the championship..

Other tracks were not so lucky and now have to reschedule race meetings over the coming weeks.

The drivers were keen to make sure the Grand Prix had a conclusion rather than risking the weather and have to travel back from around New Zealand. The new format had four groups race each other to find the top 12 drivers to go thru to the main final, a further 6 drivers came out of the B main race to get the final 18 cars for the 25 lap final.

The first heat saw a win to local driver Greg Teece, who led from the start, but a flat tyre in the later race scuppered his chances of qualifying for the final,

Simon Reiter was another local whose night was ended in spectacular fashion, with a roll over in the back straight.

The North Island drivers were quick to work out where the best race line was with many of the cars running the high line, almost brushing the wall as they came out of the corners, The track was in superb condi-

tion and even the brief rain that fell delaying the meeting midway only enhanced the track conditions.

The racing was pretty clean in the heats with the first caution only coming in the third race.

New Zealand Champion Jamie Larsen had a lucky escape when he got a bit wide, he ended up on his 2 right wheels but the clay

cushion saved him from rolling over. Not so lucky were Steve Duff Jr, ex Black cap Nathan Astle and local Kris Gerard, who all rolled together in the first corner of the opening lap of the final.

Former New Zealand champions Daniel Eggleton and Jamie McDonald were tied on points for the final race, a coin toss gave Daniel the positional choice, he

controlled the start and was never challenged throughout the race to take the title.

The Stock cars ran best pairs, they stirred it up a bit in the final heat with a bit of wall riding, 217n Keightley Teece, fresh from finishing fifth at the New Zealand title, decided to pick on a few cars.

The winners of the pairs were Dylan Clarke and John Everett.

The Productions ran round two of the club championship, Jono Sutton claiming the round win on 50 points. Hamish Carter won all 3 Youth Ministock races while Jayden Corkill picked up another feature win in the T.Q’s.

Saturday night's racing was predictably called off after the wet weather struck as expected.

It was a credit to all involved, who managed to ensure Friday night went ahead and the national title racing could be completed without hassle for the large crowd that turned up.

This week's meeting is the 75th New Zealand Midget title, running over Friday and Saturday night, American and Australian drivers will be battling the top Kiwi drivers to become the national champion, over two exciting nights of racing expected with a worldclass field.

Micayla wins four golds Simon Bloomberg Reporter

simon@waimeaweekly.co.nz

Stoke School sprinter Micayla Whiti completed a double-double at the Colgate Games when she won the 100m and 200m at the South Island Colgate Games in Invercargill.

The talented 10-year-old had already won the sprint double at the North Island Colgate Games held in Hastings a week earlier.

She completed the clean-sweep of the 10-year-old girls sprints, winning the 100m and 200m finals by big margins after cruising through the heats and semifinals unbeaten in Invercargill on January 14-15.

But what was even more remarkable was the Athletics Richmond sprinter's times. Micayla recorded personal bests at Hastings of 29.33secs in the 200m and a

stunning 13.94sec in the 100m, only running slightly slower times in blustery conditions in Invercargill.

"It was so windy in Invercargill, I couldn't go fast," Micayla says.

"But I got personal bests in Hastings which was cool."

Micayla attributes her fast times to a lot of hard training and her coach Dennis Kale, who also has New Zealand age group 200m record holder Lucy Sheat in his squad.

"Lucy is amazing, I'm so lucky to train with her," Micayla says.

"She always tells me to do my best - I hope I can run as fast as her one day."

Micayla's sister Ashleigh, 12, also won a gold at Invercargill running the 200m leg in Athletics Richmond's successful medley team with Lilly Zwart, Jacob Neal, Alex McGillivray and Kristal Bennett.

rugby players have been added to the New Zealand Sevens team for the Wellington leg of the World Sevens Series this weekend.

Trael Joass, Andrew Knewstubb and Tone Ng Shiu have been added to the 14-man squad for the tournament after being asked to a training camp following the National Sevens tournament a fortnight ago.

Running: Tasman runner Jared Lautenslager has achieved his goal of a national 3000m title. Jared won the 3000m U20 men’s title with a very strong last lap in Whanganui to stop the clock in 8:37.96.

Despite the quality of Lautenslager family over a range of distances, Jared’s win was the first NZ title for the family since his mother Debbie

Total Decorating Nelson Limited is a Painting Company with a major focus on quality customer service. Due to continued growth we require a qualified painter to join our team.

We specialize in the painting of new projects, architecturally designed homes, renovations and commercial properties. We are currently looking for a qualified painter the ideal candidate would need “new work” experience to join our hard working team.

What you’ll need to succeed: The right candidate will be able to take direction well, skilled in all areas of preparation both exterior and interior. Spraying is an essential part of our job so if you have experience in spraying and are able to do so to a high standard this would be an advantage but not essential to the position.

This position would suit an experienced Painter who is capable of either working within a team or at times in sole charge. You will need to be able to paint a new home from start to end with a high standard of finish to be successful in this role.

Safety is paramount so you must be someone who takes an active role in work place safety.

You will be required to provide referees.

Please don’t apply if you are not qualified or working towards a qualification.

Applicants for this position should have NZ residency or a valid NZ work visa.
