Breaking free from meth Tracy Neal of RNZ Cayden Minto says meth is a religion. “I believe there are spiritual forces that govern its use and whether you get free of it,” he says. A clue that the 27-year-old has not yet broken free of its grip is strapped to his ankle. The electronic bracelet ensures he’s not likely to skip

court on yet another burglary charge. Seven years ago Cayden was still struggling to deal with the death in 2009 of his older brother Troy. He was shot in the chest in a broad daylight fight at a public picnic spot in Nelson’s Maitai Valley. Cayden, in prison at the time on violence matters, wasn’t allowed out to attend the funeral. More prison time followed for burglary and theft, and then a period of grace before a provocative comment one night triggered a moment’s rage, and a longer violence record. He broke the noses of two women after punching them in retaliation over a comment about his dead

brother. He’s turned his confinement into a time to read and reflect. “When he’s like this he’s amazing and I love him,” says his mother Shirley Way. “My biggest wish is that he stays on track, and the falling off becomes less frequent.” Shirley, who knows the pitfalls first-hand but with less powerful drugs, hates the person her son becomes on meth. “I don’t understand the drug – I just understand the impact it’s had on us. I can’t stand the person it makes my son. It’s easy to swap from being chill to having a psychotic episode where the person on it wants to slit someone’s throat.” She calls it “the most evil

drug” she has ever come across. Cayden was 17 when he first tried it. He says it took a while to feel its effects, by which time he was in deep. Meth became his one object of desire, but it cost so much he started making it. He says the money came so easily it was hard to justify getting a real job. “I could make 3 times the amount in less than a third of the time. Once you’ve seen that it’s hard to sit on $17 an hour when I could make $500 an hour.” But the money is a trap. “It’s like trying to hold a handful of sand when you have drug money. It comes with ties, and great risk.” Shirley says it’s heart-breaking watching her son fall, get

up and fall again. But there’s only so much she can take. “Over the last few times he’s slipped, I’ve had him buried and shut the door.” Cayden wants to rid meth from his life, and says he’ll use faith as his weapon. “You can’t serve God and money. When I’m close to God I see my family restored. I’ve learned to be a giver, not a taker. I’m learning to be content with who I am and to feel valued and approved of.” And he’s also learned to thank God for his mum.

History recreated at school of music Charles Anderson Editor

charles@nelsonweekly.co.nz

When Ian Bowman first walked into the then Nelson School of

Music in the late 1960s he was just a child learning the violin. Then, on the outside of the building were ornate decorations that welcomed Nelsonians into the building that was originally con-

structed 117 years ago. But in 1970 it was earthquake strengthened and large reinforced buttresses were put in. Those ornate decorations were destroyed. So, for 50 years, Nelsonians have

not seen the building as it was originally intended. “It was butchered really,” says Ian who is now a heritage architect tasked with recreating buildings true to their original form. “I im-

agine they thought it was easier to knock it down.” But there was a desire to bring the school, renamed the Nelson

recreated in glass-reinforced concrete, which is more durable and lightweight. He says the project, which was managed by the architects Irving Smith, does justice to the original vision of the School of Music. “I think its absolutely tremendous." It is also a personal job for Ian. His own father designed the Kidson Block for the school in 1971 and he also met his wife through the school. And now, 50 years on, he has also put his own permanent mark on the building - recreating it the way it was meant to be.

But one thing has always eluded him – a proper job. “The reason why I want to get a job is that I want to learn how to do things and get into the business industry,” Louis says. “I can just try my best, that’s all I can do.” For his mum Deborah, she just wants to see Louis live as independently as possible. “For me, everyone has a right to be valued in their community, have their own sense of

person and place, I think that’s vital regardless of difficulties.” But she is frustrated at how difficult it can be in convincing an employer that someone like Louis is a good bet. “He is punctual and loyal and will turn up every day looking smart and with a smile on his face,” Deborah says. His carer Sally Chisnall says that Louis is always willing to give anything a go and would be a great addition to any workplace. “He is a great front man and great with people.” Louis is also eligible for employer funding which subsidises any payment Louis gets.

It felt like Christmas morning at the Nelson Community Toy Library on Saturday. Five recently-settled refugee families were gifted a free six-month membership worth $65 for the toy library - something that they wouldn’t normally be able to afford. But now they will be able to borrow up to four toys for three weeks at a time – including bikes, scooters, educational games and dressups. Toy library committee member Lauren Penney says they worked in conjunction with Red Cross to make it happen, with funding from The Rata Foundation. Then they held an open day to introduce the families to the library and the way it works. “We did it because we want recently-settled refugees to be able to access our wonderful toy library without having to worry about cost,” she says. “We also want to enable children in our community to learn and de-

velop via play and to enable these families to settle confidently into our community, meet more families and become more involved within our community.” Megan Riddell, a volunteer coordinator for the Red Cross Pathways to Settlement programme, says the families are “thrilled” with the opportunity. “As an ex toy library president it has always been something I’ve wanted to do. Then Lauren ran the idea past me and I was like ‘yes, let’s do it’. “So, the toy library got the funding and we made it happen.” Megan says once families understand how it works, they’ll start using it more and more. “It shows them that they don’t have to spend money on toys, but instead access them for a very low cost. It’s great.” There are still another two memberships to gift to Red Cross refugee families. If this is you, or someone you know, contact the toy library at nelsoncommunitytoyibrary@gmail.com or via Facebook.

These service lines are live and cannot be turned off by the main power switch on your switch board. If you touch them, or the bare conductors that connect them to the house, you may be seriously injured or killed. When entering a building, these lines are required to have suitable insulated covering. If the covering looks damaged or worn, contact your local electricity retailer or Nelson Electricity for referral to the appropriate licensed professional. It is the homeowner’s responsibility to ensure that, within the boundary of their property, power lines and cables are maintained in a safe condition. Very often, supply to an out-building is taken from the house by overhead lines. As with service lines, old coverings of the wire deteriorate with time. If the covering looks damaged or worn, have the lines replaced by your licensed worker.

Dancing for hospice sure to be a knockout Boxing coach and former teacher Paul Hampton remembers Chrissy Gillespie as a young pupil showing off her dance trophies in class. Now, the tables have turned and she is the one teaching him. Paul, better known as the man behind Victory Boxing, is one of eight local personalities taking part in Dancing for a Cause. The May 26 event is a major fundraiser for Nelson Tasman Hospice. Paul is partnered with Chrissy, who he taught in Year Six about 15 years ago. “She used to come in with her little dance trophies to Show and Tell,” he says. Now she’s his partner in a twominute jive, a Latin dance style with a quick beat. Dance instructor Emma SilkeFrench, who is teaching all eight contestants their various dances, said Hampton was making good progress. “I’ve told him a few times that what he’s showing me now is what I would have expected to get on show day, so I’m very impressed.” Paul was dancing in Cuban heels but had to find some lower heels after “nearly breaking my ankle”.

After the second run-through of his routine at one of his weekly lessons, he is puffed. “At the gym, I wave my arms around a lot telling the guys what to do, but I don’t actually do it myself,” he says. Emma says dancing requires more fitness than most people realised. Paul says he agreed to take part in the contest as hospice was such a good cause. “I”ve had two friends with cancer and hospice is an amazing service. “I get quite nervous [dancing] but thinking about that puts it

into perspective." The seven other contestants, each of whom is learning a different dance, are: Mayor Rachel Reese, peanut butter business-man Pic Picot, politician Rachel Boyack, Surgeon Ros Pochin, restauranteur Matt Bouterey, councillor Matt Lawrey, and osteopath and Youth Theatre founder Richard Carruthers.

Load control is a mechanism that Network Tasman and many other lines companies use to manage the demand that heating water places on the electricity network during ‘peak’ demand periods, typically in the morning and early evening on the coldest winter days.

Load control allows Network Tasman to shut off devices such as electrical hot water cylinders for a short time, using a ripple control system, then switch them back on during low-demand ‘off-peak’ periods. As a result Network Tasman can keep costs down and pass those savings on to our consumers. Cheaper prices for water heating are shown on your electricity bill as a line called ‘controlled’ or ‘economy’. Controlling the load in this way doesn’t impact on how you use your hot water e.g. to wash your dishes, do laundry or have showers and baths. Our aim is to ensure that you don’t even notice that load control is being used. RC LAN

Your advanced meter will display “LC” if hot water heating is switched off by our load control system. “LC1” will be displayed if hot water heating is enabled. Visit www.networktasman.co.nz to see if load control is in place.

Load control helps save consumers money because it reduces the transmission charges that Network Tasman pays to Transpower. Network Tasman also doesn’t have to invest so much money upgrading the capacity of its local network to cope with ever-increasing peaks during network busy hours. “As an example,” says Network Tasman’s Regulatory and Commercial Manager, Emma Lanigan, “in the next five years a new transmission grid exit point needs to be built. If we didn’t have load control, this investment would have been needed approximately 6 years earlier and customers would already be paying for that in their power bill.” “Deferring investment keeps our network at a level that’s in line with what the community actually needs and, in turn, keeps electricity prices down. It also means we can take advantage of developing technology and innovation as alternatives to traditional network supply become available. “Management of peak load through hot water load control by Network Tasman saves the company and its customers more than $3 million every year. This equates to around $76 per customer per year.”

Cawthron under fire for parasite response By Staff reporter with Newsroom.co.nz Nelson’s Cawthron Institute is refusing to answer allegations that it badly handled an outbreak of an oyster parasite that threatened a burgeoning aquaculture industry. According to an investigation by the news website, Newsroom, scientific experts believed the Cawthron Aquaculture Park in Glenduan to be infected as part of a hushed-up biosecurity outbreak that is being investigated the Ministry for Primary Industries. In January 2015, three months before its opening, the oysterkilling parasite Bonamia ostreae was discovered in samples from the Cawthron facility, which was breeding several different shellfish species in the hope of commercialising the research for farming. Last year, Bonamia ostreae’s existence exploded into public view when the parasite was confirmed at a Stewart Island oyster farm. MPI ordered oyster farmers to remove their operations from Big Glory Bay. Farms in Marlborough’s Tory Channel and Port Underwood – infected since at least 2015 – got the same order.

However, the Newsroom investigation says that MPI discarded advice from scientific and technical experts to remove Marlborough’s infected farms and restrict the movement of aquaculture vessels and equipment used there. Those same experts raised concerns about “major biosecurity flaws” at Cawthron’s aquaculture park. On May 31 last year, MPI contacted New Zealand’s Bluff Oyster Company, owned by Southlander Rodney Clark to say it was one of two farms to test positive for Bonamia ostreae. Nine days later, Clark’s company received the devastating news that its oysters and equipment had to be removed. The business was finished and he blames Cawthron. MPI refuses to confirm Cawthron was infected, however, Newsroom found confirmation of Cawthron’s infection in an MPI document published last year. Cawthron Institute’s chief commercial officer Stuart Cooper did not respond to requests for comment from the Nelson Weekly or Newsroom. Instead, it says it was one of many organisations that cooperated with MPI’s investigation. An MPI report, released to News-

The Cawthron Aquaculture Park is the largest of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere. Photo: Supplied. room under the Official Information Act, contains a scathing assessment of Cawthron’s response to Bonamia ostreae saying its biosecurity plan and procedures failed to address “major biosecurity flaws”. Green-lipped mussels and Pacific oysters – potential carriers of the parasite – had already been transferred to the North Island, the report noted. Allowing movements of potentially infected bivalve species from within the “contained zone” was likely to spread the disease, the experts warned. The group was unimpressed

Cawthron was keen to claim it was, or wished to be, free of Bonamia ostreae, “with no evidence to support that assertion”. Among the 2015 advisory group’s key recommendations were removing oysters and equipment from infected Marlborough farms and adding commercial aquaculture vessels and equipment to the restrictions. However, those recommendations weren’t followed. MPI’s director of readiness and response Geoff Gwyn says removing the infected Marlborough farms would have been “extreme” and the decision to

restrict shellfish movement “was the appropriate one, given the circumstances”. Former Minister for Primary Industries Nathan Guy also says commercial considerations played no part in the decision, which he said was based on “science and risk mitigation”. A December 2016 presentation given at Cawthron’s Nelson offices said the discovery of Bonamia ostreae had “major implications in terms of stock movements and therefore our research programmes”. That caused alarm within Cawthron, which had received millions of taxpayer dollars to pursue its aquaculture research. Gwyn rejects any suggestion MPI is too close to the industry to make hard decisions. However, in mid-September, the Government announced its $250 million Endeavour round of science projects. Cawthron received the largest pledge, $14.6 million over five years, for research into “the risk to NZ aquaculture from infectious diseases and aquatic health issues”. It’s an ironic twist not lost on former oysterman Clark. “Good grief,” he says, when told of the $14.6 million grant. “Now that does make me wild.”

I wasn’t interested in Asia and I was a bit scared of it.” However, when she arrived, all those fears faded away. She says the family was so grateful and in awe of having a new home.

Tori Puklowski, Glenn Brewerton and Rob Silcock of Habitat for Humanity are planning a trip to Cambodia to build homes for vulnerable people. Photo: Charles Anderson. Silcock. “Doing it for the first time, there is a sense of safety with other people.” Rob says most people haven’t laid bricks either and they are looking for people from any age who are keen to get stuck in and do some good. “You get this amazing sense of camaraderie with the people you are working with and you have that sense of belonging with people you’ve gone with and who you’ve built for.” Rob says the biggest part of the $4600 cost of the trip is the airfare. The rest goes towards materials for the week-long build.

Then there is also an option to join on a tour around Cambodia for the second week. Rob says he knows the price can put people off so is keen to hear from anyone who is interested but might not be able to afford it, as there may be some options available. Tori says that the cost is well worth it. “I went thinking ‘I can help these people’ but you realise they are kinder and more generous than I will ever be. Really, they helped me.” For more information contact nelson@habitat.org.nz

Swap ‘til You Drop gives clothes new lease on life Sara Hollyman A whole new wardrobe for only a gold coin donation is what locals got on Sunday at Fashion Revolution’s Swap ‘til You Drop. Organiser John Marshall says the event was about showing people how easy it can be to re-use their unwanted clothes instead of simply throwing them away. “The fashion industry is the second most taxing on the

environment after the oil industry and this is about showing people that, actually, we don’t need to just throw things away.” The idea for the event was that people brought along up to five unwanted, good quality items of clothing and exchanged them for the same number of items that others had exchanged. “A lot of people who bought clothes to swap had never worn them because they

were the wrong size or wrong colour, some of them even still had the tags on.” John says they were expecting a great turn out and needed around 750 people to cover costs and ensure the event can happen again. By 10.30am they had already seen a couple of hundred people arrive, exchange, and go on their merry way with their new items. The event was run by the Nelson branch of Fashion

Opinion

Your Voice Nick Smith (Weekly Apr.24) inaccurately speaks about those who opposed the dropping of poison in the Brook Valley watershed. Out of concern for their environment, members of the Brook Street community used every legal facility available to get their message across. Their latest action, at great personal expense, was a court case held in Wellington. Halfway through the case, Parliament, led by Nick Smith, changed the law allowing the poison drop to occur without citizen input. Consequently the case went

against the community group. When those in authority make bad decisions, the people have little choice but to stand on principle. Yours sincerely, Dan McGuire. Container development stalls after ‘red tape’ delays: Disappointing but predictable from a council of proven ineptitude, and as living proof, we have the blue stripes as their contribution to a "bustling, clever...", how did that bollocks go? They have no idea how to advance but a million ways to impede. Jim Mitchell. Have you not worked out that the NCC just don’t

Alcohol is already cheap and easily accessible. Of all the other retail options that could go in that space, which

Nelson Matters Bouquets and brickbats are deserved from this year’s Anzac commemorations. My bouquet goes to the thousands of people who attended Anzac services across the region and those who helped organise these events. This is a huge show of respect for the scale of sacrifice generations of Nelsonians have made in our armed services from the Boer War, WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam, Malaysia and Afghanistan. Silent gratitude is not much good to anyone. I am proud as a Kiwi that far more New Zealanders participate in Anzac Day than many countries on their equiva-

lent remembrance days. The RSA chose this year to focus on the mental health cost that our returning service men and women suffer. This was aptly illustrated with the story of the tragic suicide of Nelson architect Sgt Roland Chadwick in 1918, after five years’ service in the medical corps from Gallipoli to the Western Front. I thank the many who ensured the success of Anzac Day commemorations. People like Nelson RSA President Dave Lawes, Parade Commander Derek Nees, Brian Ramsay who organises the services at the Wakapuaka and Marsden Cemeter-

ies, our dedicated bugler Mason Robinson and the hundreds of volunteers between the Nelson City Brass Band, Nelson and Districts Pipe Band, our Army, Navy and Airforce Cadets, the Male Voice Choir, Anzac Quartet and Kia Karanga group. I contrast this collective showing of respect for our armed service personnel with the ongoing campaign by Nicky Hager and Jon Stephenson to discredit our service men and women on their work in Afghanistan. Labour and NZ First deserve a brickbat for their decision to initiate a Government inquiry into their book “Hit and Run”

of a kind and I have never seen you have a bad day, always happy. Always in the smoko room at 6:30 talking to Mark. I will miss your humour and great spirit. Great effort, Phil. Duncan Renwick.

and it was tasteless announcing it just before Anzac Day. Afghanistan is an ugly hell hole. Islamic bombers last week killed over 30 innocent people in Kabul at a voter registration centre. These Islamic extremists conduct mass murder to stop democratic elections or girls getting an education. We can sit on our comfortable couches tut tutting about such atrocities, but it is our brave armed service personnel who confront this barbarism. I have no problem with questioning and debate over whether armed intervention is the best way to bring peace to a troubled

part of the world like Afghanistan or Syria. I favour diplomatic solutions wherever possible. My problem is the questioning of the integrity of our brave armed service people. The anti Vietnam protestors wrongly vilified our soldiers. I do not doubt that innocent people have been injured or killed by allied military operations in Afghanistan as is inevitable in a war zone. My confidence, though, is in New Zealand’s armed services today. They are as brave, professional and deserving of respect as the generations that have served before them.

Every few weeks the Nelson Weekly sits down at the Vic Brewbar for a drink and bite to eat with someone interesting doing something interesting. Today we speak with Stella Chrysostomou from Volume Books about how she came to be running an independent bookstore in the heart of Nelson. Q: How did you come to be in Nelson running your own bookstore? A: I went to university in Wellington and studied history and politics. I came out of university thinking I’d probably end up in public service but realised, actually, the idea of sitting at a desk shuffling paper isn’t what I wanted to do. I fell into the book trade by accident because I needed a job and a friend said ‘Oh there’s a job going at Bennetts, you should apply for it.’ So, I was the packing girl in the back room parcelling up the packages to send out to people. I ended up back in Nelson totally by accident, like most people I think. I came back for a couple of months to save some money and then suddenly, I’m still here. That was about 19 years ago. My partner Thomas and I decided we would really like to have our

Stella Chrysostomou of Volume Books talks about her love of literature. Photo: Sara Hollyman own book shop and give it a try. The space became available, so we did it. Q: Have you always had a love of literature? A: Yes, I was one of those kids that read with their torch hiding under the covers, and when my torch got confiscated I would use the outside light by pulling the curtains back. I just read everything, I worked my way through the Stoke library. By the time I was 10 or 11, I had read most of the kids’ books and moved on to teen fiction and was reading my mother’s books.

Q: Do people still read? A: Definitely! People still read, I think there is more choice for people’s entertainment time, there’s Netflix, movies, and gaming which is huge. People can be gaming sometimes with people from the other side of the world. There’s a lot more choices about how you use your time, but people still read in all sorts of formats. What we’re finding is that people want to turn away from screens. Most people’s jobs involve screen time of some sort. There’s a new enthusiasm for books.

Hey Glen, Just touching base re the wording for your story. When would suit to call in and see you for an interview? Also, is there any main points you would like to cover for the readers? Hello, Jason and myself are here from 8am each day, so any time is good really. Cheers Glen.

Just me again, I guess things I’d like to cover would be a few of the basics, like how we have been on Trafalgar Street for 6 months in our new shop. Um... we have a 60% off all our bangles until stocks last which may be good to cover as Mothers Day is coming up. What else? Jason has been working here for a whole year and how customers have gotten to love him as well (the older ladies fancy him lol) One thing I’d really like to mention is how lots of customers love the speed in which we can resize their rings, re-do the claws, and other repairs. This is because we do in all on site.

Q: What’s special about Volume? A: We want people to make discoveries. An important part is sort of being a cultural hub and a place where people can gather and discuss ideas. We have a table and seats, so people can sit down and really browse. There are lots of places people can meet, you know there’s cafes and restaurants but there’s not many places where conversations take place especially around ideas which is something that we like to encourage.

It’s great to get their feedback, so some angle on that for the story would be good, please. Other than that, just pop in maybe in the morning if that suits and we can get the wording done. Cheers Glen. Do we have enough space to mention our custom design for rings or will that be too much?

SmartVent is the way to go this winter. Rowan Dron Electrical is the place to go to get the best home ventilation system in SmartVent. Rowan says the New Zealand based product continues to prove popular because of its consistency and reliability to get Kiwis through the approaching winter months while not stinging their wallet. The SmartVent system allows clean air to be used to eliminate cold and condensation from around the home, keeping your family healthier this winter. “It also works with your other heating options to create an optimum temperature. “It’s a product that works every time and does what it says it’s going to do,” Rowan says. “It has all the extras that other systems charge extra for like acoustic insulated ducting fans, filters and wifi control. “They’ve really progressed the technology forward and people who get it installed won’t regret it,” he says. “I know I’ve never had a complaint about them.” People wanting more information on

Keeping warm in winter is about more than just turning the heater up. If you’ve got a wood burner, you’ll know how important it is to get dry wood in early and store it well. There’s lots of info on Council’s website at nelson.govt.nz/ burn-bright. Make sure you make the most of your valuable woodpile by operating your wood burner efficientlyget your flue cleaned before winter; use plenty of newspaper and kindling to get the fire going; don’t fill the firebox up too much – add less wood more frequently and keep a good blaze going. And do pop outside to check for smoke after the fire’s been going for 15 minutes – if it’s still smoking you are wasting valuable fuel. If you’re looking at alternatives, then heat pumps are the most efficient option if used correctly. Is your home insulated? If not, then look at the options for insulation – there are grants available from Warm Up New Zealand - visit energywise.co.nz for more information.

wood burner more efficiently

1

Check if it’s OK to use. Does it have a Council building permit or consent? Was it installed before 2000? Burners installed before 2000 in some parts of Nelson cannot be used or replaced with another wood burner.

2

Use Good Wood. This means dry wood with less than 25% moisture, left long enough after cutting to dry out before using it.

3

Check for Council’s list of Good Wood suppliers nelson.govt.nz (search phrase = Good Wood).

4

Use the right wood at the right time. Lighter wood like Pine or Douglas Fir is good for kindling. Dense wood like Gum will burn longer and give more heat once the fire is burning well.

5

Store your wood properly – split and stack in a criss-cross pattern for good ventilation and keep in a covered, dry place.

6

Burning things like wet wood, plastic, rubbish or treated wood, is banned. It can create toxic fumes and damage your burner.

7

STEP ONE for a good fire: When preparing to light your fire leave a bed of ash, put scrunched newspaper in the bottom, add small bits of kindling, add larger pieces of dry wood as fire catches hold.

8

STEP TWO for a good fire: Light newspaper in several places. Have air control fully open to keep fire burning brightly, unless reloading you should keep the door closed.

9

STEP THREE for a good fire: Never use the door to force wood into burner – it could break the glass.

10

STEP FOUR for a good fire: Look after your burner – follow the manufacturer’s operation and safety instructions. Clean your flue every autumn and replace any damaged parts.

OPENING SOON Haven Road, Nelson

After a two year restoration process, the old seafarers mission building on Haven Road has been beautifully transformed into ‘The Chapel Café’ and will soon be open for customers! In 2015, Nelson photographer Jose Cano purchased the derelict church with a vision to bring the historic building back to its former glory. Its new owner, Emily Balaam, brings her passion for hospitality to her new business, having come from a family of restaurant owners. In keeping with what Jose wanted, Emily also has a desire to give back to the Nelson community, “In the spirit of the Little Chapel with a big heart, we will offer a discounted price for members of the community who work in the public sector, such as police, fire officers, coastguards, civil defence, ambulance, hospitals, and community volunteers, and especially those

in military service. We will also have dollar for dollar donations for the Nelson Hospice; whatever the community donates, we will donate back to the community.” “It has been very much a passion project for Jose, who has been wonderful to work with, together with local tradesman Gus, who also helped rebuild the chapel. We have appreciated their expertise as well as the artists and other trades people who have played a part in the chapel’s interior and exterior restoration. Nelson artist Pete Madsen also worked alongside Jose; he’s found a lot of old photos of the harbour, and has been doing a number of paintings which will be displayed in a mini gallery at the chapel. I will soon be meeting with some locals who have been to a few of the sermons there; we want to keep CHAPEL CAFE: Head Chef Karl Marshall, cafe manager Marcus Simmerlein, wrought iron spethe history of the chapel alive!” cialist Adam Styles, builder Gus Harrison, lead light specialist Pauline English and cafe owner Emily Balaam.

Specialist in custom metalwork and wrought iron Proud to be involved in the restoration of The Chapel Cafe

Formerly known in the 1800s as the Port Chapel, it was once a home for seamen seeking respite from the challenging voyages to come to our shores from abroad. It then became St Andrew’s Chapel, one of the earliest examples of a galleried chapel in Nelson. The chapel boasts many outstanding features, such as the old bell tower

which echoed through the port to invite the congregation to enjoy their time of worship and gratitude; and people can still enjoy the timeless ambience of its stained glass windows. St Matthew’s closed its doors as an Anglican church in the 1900s and lay derelict for a number of years until it was purchased as a scout hall, and

by boat makers. History also tells us that, at some point, the old building survived a devastating fire which could have been the chapel’s demise, however one local who could see its beauty, chose to save it. “Their desire was to see the chapel restored back to resemble a place of prayer and sanctuary, reflection and a reminder of yes-

We will be offering breakfast and lunch to begin with, with the possibility we will open in the evenings sometime in the future. Our goal is to make delicious food that people will want to come back for.” The business will also be “ very committed to quality customer service. Everyone who visits the chapel will be welcomed, as a nod to the building’s history of welcoming all who visited the chapel. Our staff will be dedicated to creating a positive experience for everyone who walks through our doors.” Owner Emily Balaam is excited to see the old Port Chapel lovingly restored to her glory – and the way it has honoured the iconic architecture that has stood the test of time. “It was

The old Seafarers Mission building on Haven Rd will open as ‘Chapel Cafe’, after a two-year restoration process. great to see the tasteful renovation and refurbishment of this Nelson landmark acknowledged and shortlisted recently in the Architects Awards in Nelson City Awards 2018.” Meanwhile, Emily brings her own history to the waterfront table: “I’ve had family who have owned cafes and restaurants. They have been in the hospitality industry and I’ve learnt from them, and I have also had some formal barista training. I started out in Wellington, then I fell in love with Nelson after coming here on holiday. The first day I was here, I said ‘I have to move here!’ It’s the city, the people; I knew Nelson was my home.” Once settled here, the

opportunity came up for Emily to open a local cafe. “I wanted to give something really special to Nelson.” The chapel, which once provided a haven for seafarers and their families, will soon be welcoming locals and visitors inside for exceptional food, in a peaceful port setting by the sea. Initially, the Chapel Café will be open 7 days a week and, as it expands its business, it will be available for private functions such as weddings and social or charity functions. With bookings already coming in, people are encouraged to enquire early to avoid disappointment! For more information email: emily@chapel-cafe.com

Sara Hollyman Five lucky children got to see Nelson from a whole new height thanks to the Nelson Marlborough Rescue Helicopter Trust on Sunday. The annual open day, gives locals an inside look at what they do on a day-to-day basis. As part of the open day children were invited to dress-up as one their favourite emergency responders to compete for a chance to win one of five scenic helicopter rides. The judges said it was a tough decision, but after close examination of the amazing array of costumes the five winners were selected. They enjoyed a tour around Nelson by helicopter. Meanwhile other children queued

to be hand-winched in a stretcher or to be electrically winched up to the second storey in a harness, in what was a fun and interactive day for all ages. The base also welcomed the Red Cross, St John, Coastguard, Search and Rescue, Civil Defence and the Fire Service to its open day. Trust manager Paula Muddle said it was a great chance to show everyone what they do and how important the service is. "The weather has held off and we’re able to do the scenic helicopter rides, so a great day all round.” The open day is an annual fundraiser for the NMRHT which provides life-saving missions across the Top of the South more than 500 times a year.

Opera is making a triumphant return to the Theatre Royal this month. Marlborough based Cavalcade Productions is performing ‘Opera Unboxed’ for one show only on Wednesday 16 May. It’s the first time the Theatre Royal has had a ‘proper’ opera since reopening in 2010, with four NZ Opera colleagues presenting an evening of music from

the worlds of grand opera and musical theatre. Director and baritone Robert Tucker from Blenheim will be joined by New York based mezzo Rachelle Pike, Auckland singer/actress Helen Medlyn, and Wellington tenor Declan Cudd. They will be accompanied by Wellington-based pianist Catherine Norton the big Steinway. Helen Medlyn, who has been a frequent performer at Nelson’s Opera in the

Park, says she’s delighted to be coming back to Nelson. “We are all very excited to be bringing opera back to the Theatre Royal, and I think the audience will enjoy the variety of songs we have planned,” she says. “It’s mostly opera, with some lighter stuff. There will be solos and duets - it’s a bit of everything really.” Opera Unboxed is on at the Theatre Royal on Wednesday 16 May, 7.30pm. Tickets available from www.ticketdirect.co.nz

A 49-point demolition Jonty Dine Reporter

The Nelson Giants made an emphatic statement on Saturday night, opening their season with a 49-point demolition of the Super City Rangers. Signs of a Mike Pero Nelson Giant’s resurgence in 2018, after a poor 2017, look positive after the 117-68 round one rout in front of a boisterous crowd at the Trafalgar Centre. The opening encounter also featured the highly-anticipated debut of American Jerry Evans Jnr, who sunk the side's first three pointer of the season. Jerry went on to contribute 16 points include four three pointers. Another debutant, Damon Heuir, looked strong throughout, top scoring with 25 points and nine assists.

Former Nelson College student Finn Delany made his presence felt all over the court, chipping in with 15 points. "Everyone who came on contributed, the boys are pretty excited about the win, but we need to continue to build and don’t want to get complacent.” Finn says after a disappointing couple of campaigns, the club has a different feel this season. Perhaps most pleasing for the home side was the contribution from their bench. Head coach Jamie Pearlman has added plenty of depth to the roster, the Giants bench comfortably out-scoring the visitors 43-26. Jamie says he is delighted with the opening result. "You're never quite sure where you're at till you play that first game, so it’s great to

get a win." The Cairns Taipans assistant coach says fellow Taipan Damon Heuir was superb in his first Giants appearance. "Damon did a terrific job guarding [Clay] Wilson and he made some really tough shots and rebounded the ball well." Jamie says it was pleasing to see so many shots find the net. "We did shoot the ball tremendously well and we can't expect to shoot that well all season, but it was nice to see them going in first game." The result sees the Giants rocket to the top of the New Zealand NBL table on points differential. The Giants will next take the court when they host the Southland Sharks next Saturday night.

Nelson sprinter Bailey Cotton has recently returned from a training camp in Qatar where he had access to a $2billion sports facility. Bailey was one of seven Kiwi sprinters selected to attend Aspire Academy, the biggest sports academy in the world, for a two-week training camp. “It was unreal, you could smell the money, it is a very rich place, flash everything.” The 19-year-old says the facility was a far cry from what he is accustomed to, where anyone can rock up at anytime with their dog for a quick jog around the track. “There were security guards at every entrance and you needed a special pass just to get past the gate.” The former Nayland College student had the opportunity to rub shoulders with world class coaches and use world leading training technology, including a $1million treadmill. The camp culminated in a competition, where Bailey put his speed to the test

ships in Finland later this year. The team were on track too, as Bailey, running third, handed the baton to his teammate with a 25-metre lead. However, disaster struck as the young runner pulled his hamstring within 15 metres of the finish, quashing Kiwi hopes of appearing at the world games. Bailey says it was a tough pill to swallow. “I knew we were going to get close and I was jumping up and down, it was looking good, and then suddenly he just dropped.” He says the experience has so far been the highlight of his short career. Bailey won gold in the 200m at the 2017 national championships, but a severe case of shin splints curtailed his 2018 season, finishing fifth at nationals. Having hung up the rugby boots to focus fully on his sprinting, Bailey will soon start his winter training regime. He has run personal best times of 11.20, 22.2 and 50.1 in the 100, 200 and 400m respectively. Bailey hopes to break the sub 11, 20 and 50 seconds marks next season.

What a save! Nelson Suburbs goalkeeper Corey Wilson pulls off a penalty save on full time to secure a win for his team at Saxton Field on Sunday. Photos: Chris Symes/Shuttersport.

Jonty Dine

A miraculous last minute save by Suburbs keeper Corey Wilson ensured his side escaped with the points at Saxton Field on Sunday. Nelson Suburbs continued their resurgence in the Mainland Premier League, with a frustrating and nerve-racking 2-1 victory over Universities FC. The match served as Suburbs' third in just eight days, but they showed no early signs of fatigue. On the back of a 4-0 rout of FC Twenty 11 on Anzac Day, Suburbs were full of running, the dangerous duo of Jordan Yong and Ben Wright combining to

create a number of early opportunities. Corey was returning for Suburbs after a month overseas and was relatively untroubled as the visitors barely fired a shot in the first half. Fans have become accustomed to seeing spectacular goals from Jordan Yong this season and he didn’t disappoint, expertly converting a free kick with a stunning strike to open the scoring. Only the crossbar prevented the hosts taking a commanding lead before the break. Suburbs continued to dominate territory and possession in the second stint against an under-

whelming Universities outfit. Half a dozen shots at goal later, Ben Wright finally netted a second for Suburbs shortly after oranges, guiding in a pinpoint Jordan cross. A red card to skipper George Moore compounded Universities’ woes in the second half. However, a rare defensive lapse saw Universities score what looked like a consolation goal late in the piece. Then, with seconds remaining and Universities on attack, Jonathan Gough was penalised inside the box, giving the visitors the chance to snatch a draw. Step up Corey Wilson.

After four weeks off, Corey performed a picture-perfect save to the delight of the home fans. "I’m absolutely shattered now,” he said. Corey says a gut feeling told him which direction to dive. "Penalties are 50-50, you just have to pick a side. I never go that side and I just thought I’d go left today.” As the ball rocketed into Corey’s gloves, the final whistle blew and the crowd roared. "I didn’t even know how long there was to go but we will take the three points.” Suburbs now sit third in the Mainland Premier League

and will next face Nomads in Christchurch this Saturday.

Local football: In the Nelson Bays Football first division, Blenheim's Rangers AFC sit on top of the table after a dominate 4-0 win over Tahuna FC at Tahunanui. Elsewhere, Richmond Athletic came storming back from two goals down to draw 2-2 Nelson College at Jubilee Park and Nelson Suburbs beat FC Nelson 1-0 at Saxton Field. Behind Rangers on 9 points, Nelson College and Nelson Suburbs are on 7 points, FC Nelson on 6, Tahuna FC on 3 points and Richmond on 2.

Proud supporters of

NPD Tasman Trophy and local rugby in the region

Nelson remain unbeaten in the NPD Tasman Trophy after another comfortable 59-10 victory over Kahurangi on Saturday. The competition leaders ran in nine tries in a dominant display, posting a half century for the second consecutive week. Willy Havili’s stock continues to rise, scoring his second double of the season and slotting eight conversions to contribute 24 points, while number 8 Isiah Miller scored his fifth try of the season. Waimea Old Boys have also gone three from three to start the season after they defeated Marist 31-24 in a close contest at Jubilee Park. Billy Guyton opened the scoring for the hosts with the first of his four penalty goals. The match featured a battle of the blockbusters out wide in Waimea's Erenimo Tau, who tops the season try scoring charts, and Marist’s Isaac Laga. It was the Waimea wing who struck first as Erenimo crashed over in the corner after just five minutes, before James Hawkey busted the Waimea midfield defence wide open and set

Laga away for Marists’ first try. Fly halves Billy Guyton and Taine Robinson traded penalties in a see-sawing affair that saw Marist within seven points with just two minutes to play. However, a knock on in front of the posts by Marist handed Waimea the win. Marist captain Tyler McKinnon-Stevenson says a slow start ultimately cost his side the points. "We wanted to stick it to them today, but it just didn’t go our way.” Tyler says Marist did not react as well as they should have to the conditions and they will have plenty to work on during the week, especially their scrummaging. "They are a big issue for us, we got a real lesson today.” Meanwhile at Brightwater Domain, Stoke registered their first win of the Tasman Trophy on Saturday with a 34-21 win over Wanderers. Over in Marlborough, Waitohi and East Coast also scored their first victories. Waitohi, who lost to Renwick in the first round and had the bye in round 2, got up to edge out an unbeaten Moutere side

30-29 in Picton. East Coast pulled off a major upset, beating Central, who have yet to win a game, 17-15 in Seddon. Round three results: Waimea Old Boys 31 (Erenimo Tau, Kaide Whiting, Chris Mason tries; Billy Guyton 4 pen, 3 con) beat Marist 24 (Isaac Laga, Caleb Havili tries; Taine Robinson 4 pen, con). Nelson 59 (Willy Havili 2, Tima Faingaanuku 2, Willis Scott, Neo Milligan-Richard, Isaiah Miller, Kent Strange, Jackson Harvey tries; Havili 7 con) beat Kahurangi 10 (Jack Kohler try; Aaron Coe con, pen). Stoke 34 (Hugo Nankivell, Rupena Parkinson, Sione Inisi, Charlie Chambers, Isei Lewaqai tries; Jack Grooby 3 con, pen) beat Wanderers 21 (Ethan Reuben, Jacob Berthelsen, Ducati MorrellHopa tries; Jayden Woolley 3 con).

Netball Centre manager Lindsay Filiata said there was a lot of nervous energy at Saxton Stadium which showed as both sides shot sloppily in the opening exchanges. However, Jacks soon came into their work and goal shoot Hannah Mead found her radar, sinking some superb goals from the edge of the circle. Captain Jessica Drummond was a terrier for Jacks and their defence went from strength to strength as the 2017 champions started to play accordingly, dominating all areas of the court. Jess says it was a solid start to the season. "It's always good to have a win first up, we had a lot of cobwebs and are still trying to gel as a unit, so that was a good result." In other results, Nelson College for Girls went down to Stoke NBS 62-53 and Prices Pharmacy defeated Waimea College 53-33. Saturday saw the start of the senior

Nelson teenager Jamie Harris has confirmed her status as one of the best junior rowers in the country. She has been selected in the New Zealand junior rowing team to compete at the world championships in the Czech Republic later this year. Jamie faced a rigorous and intense selection process. “We had to trial for a week and at the end of it we got in a group and they read out the team, I was quite overwhelmed when they said my name,” she says. Jamie’s inclusion puts her in elite company. The team includes junior veteran Veronica Walls and fellow Nelsonian Kayla Baker. “Veronica would be the best female junior in New Zealand, this is her third year in the team which is amazing,” says Jamie. The team will attend a twomonth training camp in Cambridge, before the big dance in the Republic from August 12-17. Jamie only took to the water

The match of the day saw Nayland College pip Collingwood by a solitary goal. Collingwood came storming in the last quarter but Nayland managed to hang onto their slim lead and escape with a round one win. All Nelson netball competitions will be up and running by May 12.

and tried to bring him down, but he never let them, and I find that really inspiring.” Jamie has an intense training regime which includes up to six rows per week. “I just love the sport, so it doesn’t bother me.” She has rowed in the Maadi Cup for the past three years, claiming a bronze medal in her most recent appearance. Currently in her last year at collegiate, Jamie will continue to focus on her rowing career when she leaves school. “I just want to see how far I can go.” She hopes to one day stand on the podium at an Olympic Games with gold around her neck. Jamie credits her coach, crew and family for her rapid ascent to national honours. “Without their support, I wouldn’t be where I am today.” Jamie must raise $10,000 for her flights and accommodation in the Czech Republic.

Former Warrior aiming for Mako Jonty Dine Reporter

jonty@nelsonweekly.co.nz

Stoke picked up its first win of 2018 on Saturday and while Tomas Aoake wasn’t on the scoresheet he has been a standout in the early games for the men from Greenmeadows. The former age-grade Warrior is currently in his second season with Stoke after making the move south in 2017. He scored three tries in his side’s first two games and says he’s hoping to make an impression in the current NPD Trophy season. Born and raised in Auckland, Tomas, 22, was playing in the reserve grade with the Warriors when his agent suggested giving rugby a crack. “I didn’t feel like I was going anywhere, and I thought there would more opportunity in rugby,” Tomas says. His partner Grace Kukutai plays

netball for the Northern Mystics and remained in Auckland. “It wasn’t easy, but we are both chasing the same dream.” Tomas has since enjoyed a rapid rise through the rugby ranks with his first professional season culminating in the 2017 ITM Cup final. “There were a couple of injuries and they called me in, it was pretty nerve-racking, it was a huge step up from what I had been playing,” Tomas says. He played on the right wing in the 35-13 loss to Canterbury. “It was a blur, bad memories in a way because we lost, Richie (Mounga) just played so well that day.” Tomas says his career highlight to date was being called into a Crusaders trial at the start of the year against the Hurricanes. “I was marking Julian Savea which was a pretty scary sight, but it was quite wet that day, so he kept slipping over.”

Playing under Warrior legend Stacey Jones, Tomas experienced a break out season in 2016, scoring 23 tries in 20 games. Despite topping the try scoring charts, Tomas still couldn’t force his way in to the top team.

enced players.” He says he hopes to replicate the path of former Warrior Ngani Laumape, who made his All Black debut last year. “I can see there are those opportunities in rugby and he took a similar path to the one I’m on now.” Tomas says Stoke are a club in rebuild mode but there are plenty of positive signs from their first two games. “We’ve had a tough start to the season, but we will keep building, we have plenty of positives to take out of those games.” Tomas is a second-year building apprentice with Fitzgerald construction and is currently refurbishing the boarding house at Nelson College. He says his goal is to secure his spot in the Tasman Mako for the 2018 campaign. “They’ve signed a couple new players so I’m just going to work on improving my game.”

“With the likes of (David) Fusitu’a and Manu (Vatuvei) who had those positions, it was hard to compete against that.” Tomas says he did experience a few trainings with the top side where he rubbed shoulders with the likes of Simon Mannering and Shaun Johnson. “You learn heaps off those experi-

Racing off to a PRomising staRt

The arrival of the first magistrate, H.A. Thompson and his valuable thoroughbred mare spurred horse racing on to an early start. Within a year, the initial Anniversary

Day Festival, February first, 1843 witnessed Nelson’s first hurdle race repeated in 1844. In the following year it was moved to Stoke on what became the Nelson Racecourse fronting Songer Street, between the Turf Hotel and Nayland Road.
