Flu runs rampant through schools Kate Russell

Flu season is hitting Nelson schools “hard and early” with one local principal saying it’s the worst he’s seen in his 12 years in charge.

Hampden Street School had 97

students away with flu symptoms on Tuesday, May 28 and have reported similar numbers throughout that same week.

“We had 80 students away on the Monday and 90 away on the Thursday as well, out of a roll of 472 children,” says principal Don

McLean.

“We also had eight teachers sick, with one being hospitalised. It’s the hardest we’ve been hit in the 12 years I’ve been here. We’ve never had anything like it before.”

Nelson Central School principal Pip Wells has also reported a

high number of absentees due to influenza as well as chickenpox.

“Last week we had about 40 students away each day,” she told Nelson Weekly.

Tahunanui School also recorded 41 students away on Monday and Birchwood School have had up

to 40 students absent in one day with flu symptoms.

According to Nelson Hospital ED presentations and admissions for May, children were the most frequent for flu-like illnesses,

with 31 per cent being aged 0-4 and six percent being 5-9-year olds.

“We are seeing large numbers of young people with flu-like illnesses, especially young children and infants,” says Dr Nick Baker, chief medical officer at Nelson Marlborough Health.

Over May, 162 people presented to Nelson Hospital’s ED with influenza-like illnesses, with 36 of those people being admitted to hospital - including pregnant women.

“This is a particularly heavy, and early start to the flu season.

Given the national reporting and what we are seeing in our own community, we should all be preparing for a bad season,” says Nick.

He says the spike of cases in the region is putting pressure on the

hospital.

“When people are admitted to hospital with suspected influenza they are put into ‘droplet isolation’ and we also put robust infection prevention protocols into place.

This all puts pressure on bed use, ward organisation and staffing.”

Influenza vaccination levels have hit near record levels nationwide, with Pharmac reporting it has distributed over 1.26 million doses of the vaccine so far this winter.

This demand means that while many general practices, health providers and pharmacies have vaccines available, the national stockpile is now running low.

Nick says the current shortage does not affect those who are eligible for free flu immunisations, and they are urged to make an appointment at their GP, afterhours medical centres or selected pharmacy if they are not already

This includes pregnant women, those aged 65 and over, children up to the age of five who have had respiratory illnesses, people with severe asthma, heart disease, diabetes and other serious health conditions and children between 6 and 35 months.

For everyone else, Nick advises them to seek medical advice if

they think they, or someone they care for, has the flu.

“Most people can care for themselves and others at home by following self-care advice and by asking Healthline nurses or the GP practice for further advice,” he says.

“It’s important to stay home from work or school and away from other people while you are unwell, and to frequently and thoroughly wash your hands as well as catch coughs and sneezes in a disposable tissue.”

Nelson GP spokesman Dr Graham Loveridge agrees that the flu season has hit early.

“In some of these school cases, it may not be the flu, but there is a nasty cold/virus going around.

Some viruses will come into town that we don’t have much immunity to so a classroom makes the ideal environment for it to spread.”

Council votes for $750k climate change fund Staff Reporter Nelson City Council will put more than $750,000 forward for initiatives to address climate change.

Last Friday’s vote came two weeks after the council voted on declaring a climate change emergency.

It allocated $254,500 of operational funding in its annual plan, and created a reserve of $500,000 for undertaking actions to address climate change.

Should a suitable initiative or idea come through from the public to instigate action on climate change, then that reserve can be drawn on

following approval by council.

The allocated funding of $254,500 will be used to establish a climate forum, a climate taskforce, and appoint a new climate champion.

Mayor Rachel Reese said that the reserve was to make the most of ideas raised from the forum and community.

“We are at the start of a journey, and we need our community to be with us as we begin this journey … The reserve fund will enable those ideas to become a reality, and really influence what we do to address climate change.”

The climate forum was recommended by a number of submitters and would involve collaboration across

sectors and stakeholders, focussing on emissions reduction, adaptation and resilience.

However, the vote only passed by one with many councillors voicing their concerns at the haste in which the ideas were put forward.

Councillors Bill Dahlberg and Mel Courtney said the proposal ought to have gone out to the public for consultation and that there was no reason why the public could not be brought along on the decision.

Ian Barker agreed.

“I don’t see there was a need for this haste, I don’t see there was a need to do this without consulting the community.”

Natureland left in limbo Staff Reporter

The Nelson City Council has decided to stick to only offering $170,000 in annual funding for the Natureland Wildlife Trust, leaving the future of the zoo up in the air.

Trust chair Alan Hinton says they are very disappointed by council’s decision.

“The decision is contrary to the recommendation of council staff and is also out of step with the vast majority of public submissions which were overwhelmingly in favour of reinstating last year’s level of council funding support.”

He says that the council’s decision leaves Natureland’s future in limbo, given that council’s current contract with the trust runs out at the end of this month.

The trust holds its next board meeting today, where it will discuss its future.

The council’s decision brings to a close a saga that has spanned more than a year.

Natureland was awarded $248,000 for the last financial year after an audit showed that it needed another keeper for health and safety reasons. Then it wanted that amount to remain for the next five years, while also receiving a capital grant of $50,000.

However, last May, councillor Matt Lawrey suggested lowering the amount to $170,000. This caused former director of the trust Mike Rutledge, whose wife Meg was then also a director, to have an outburst which led to a letter of censure.

At last week’s meeting, Rutledge, whose wife has since resigned, said the council was funding it “to fail”.

However, councillor Luke Acland said he “strongly objected” to that characterisation or that the council was responsible for the zoo’s operation.

“The trust has chosen to operate, it has chosen to operate in the market, and it has to make sure its operation is sustainable, and it’s not.”

Councillor Stuart Walker said the

decision to keep Natureland’s funding at $170,000 would not see the zoo close.

“Nature Wildlife Trust may not be the long-term operators, but I see Natureland itself operating very much as it is now.”

Butterfly Forest Trust has also submitted to the council that it could operate the zoo for $170,000 per year.

Natureland Wildlife Trust has said it was interested in partnering with the Thames-based operation.

Despite this, Alan Hinton says the decision is still a bitter blow for the zoo staff, management, and volunteers who have managed and operated the zoo with dedication and skill over the past five years.

“We want to reassure our staff and volunteers that this decision is not a reflection on their hard work and dedication. We also want to reassure the community that the welfare of the animals in our care and the wellbeing of our loyal team will be central to our decision-making going forward.”

College up for award: Nayland College has been named as a finalist for the prestigious Prime Minister’s Education Excellence Awards. The awards honour schools and educational institutions across the country that are showcasing highly effective and evidence-based best practice. The awards panel says that the school has been on a transformational pathway for the last five years.

Principal Daniel Wilson says it is a credit to the work of the board, leadership and staff. “This is an incredibly special place. To achieve this sort of recognition is a testament to the quality education we provide and the true partnership we have developed with our local community.” Winners are announced at a ceremony at the Beehive in September.

Effort to secure Pepin Island: Nelson MP Nick Smith is seeking to secure any opportunity for improving access and conservation on Pepin Island. The property north of Nelson is currently on the market with a hefty price tag of $16 million. He says Pepin Island is an “iconic property” with “wild landscapes and its beautiful coast”.

Nick has written to the Overseas Investment Office, LINZ and Conservation Minister Eugenie Sage asking them to ensure that, if the property is to be resold to an overseas buyer, the opportunity is taken to improve public access and the conservation protections on the island.

Nelson bucking housing trend: While the rate of house price growth has dropped nationally, the Nelson region is still climbing. The rate of annual growth nationally dropped from 6.9 per cent in May last year to 2.3 per cent at the same time this year. Nelson, however, has bucked the trend with residential property values rising 8.3 per cent in the year to May and by 2 per cent over the past quarter.

The average value in the city is now $624,574. Values in the Tasman District have also continued to rise, up 5.4 per cent year on year and 0.6 per cent over the past three months. The average value in the Tasman district is now $602,759. QV Nelson senior consultant Craig Russell says the upper end of the market still appears to be performing strongly, particularly in the central city and Port Hills.

High-flying executive puts historic B&B back on market Locally Owned and Operated

Charles Anderson Editor

charles@nelsonweekly.co.nz

Heather D’Arcy needed a break, so five years ago she bought a historic bed and breakfast overlooking the Maitai River.

She was fresh from working in Zurich as a vice president for computer giants Dell Corporation and then Hewlett Packard.

“I was burned out,” she says. “So, I said ‘I’m going home. I’m done’.”

After previously living in the U.S for 20-odd years, she wanted to head back to New Zealand and thought the best place to settle down for a bit might be Nelson.

“I came back from overseas and I wanted to do something different.

I had been in IT my whole career so instead of travelling the world I thought it would be better to let the world travel to me.”

So, she went from managing multimillion-dollar budgets to managing a bed and breakfast.

Heather bought the six-bedroom, seven-bathroom Sussex House on Nile St. As soon as she walked in the door, she knew this was the

place.

“It really is a beautiful home.

From the minute you walk in it sort of envelopes you. I just walked in the door and I hadn’t even been upstairs, and I thought ‘this is it’.”

Heather got her wish. Most of the people who stayed at Sussex House were from overseas.

“Nelson is such a drawcard for them.”

The home dates back to 1880 when it was built by the local haberdashery. The family owned the part of the CBD where the Vodafone building is now.

“They owned that whole block – they had seven children,” says Heather. “It was a family home.”

But, for a long time, it was Heather’s home. That is until McDonald’s came calling. At the end of last year Heather closed up the B&B after being headhunted by the global fast food giant to come and live in Chicago and be its chief information officer.

Rather than changing sheets and making guests breakfast, she is now responsible for the development and execution of the

Hence why she has now put the home on the market.

“It would be wonderful if someone

would like to transfer it back into a family home but for tourists coming in, they love the proximity to the city looking over the river,” she says. “It’s just a lovely house to be in. It could be anything – could be a doctor’s office. Whatever you

want to make it.”

It is due to be sold by tender by Harcourts on June 24, unless sold prior.

“I would say whoever is the person buying it, is buying a beautiful home,” Heather says.

Schools pumping with brand new bike track Locally Owned and Operated

Sara Hollyman Reporter

sara@nelsonweekly.co.nz

St Joseph’s School is the latest on a fast-growing list of schools around the region to receive its very own pump track.

The track, which is being shared with Nelson Central School, has been funded by Bike in Schools Charitable Trust, and the Nelson City Council, as well as fundraising efforts from the school community.

PTA member Irene Firestone says the feedback from children has been “absolutely phenomenal” and seeing the community and families coming and using it over the weekend is “just awesome”.

She says the idea came from school-wide community feedback four years ago, which asked people about areas they wanted to see upgraded.

“A pump track was something that was identified. It’s taken a while to get to this point but when Bikes in Schools came on board it was

So, it was really exciting when that happened.”

Part of the obligation when

receiving money from the Bike in Schools initiative is that a portion of the money is used to buy bikes to house onsite.

For both St Joseph’s and Nelson Central, a fleet of 50 bikes was the required amount, ranging in sizes so all age groups can use them.

“It means that every kid will have the opportunity to ride a bike and, in theory, no child should leave this school not being able to ride a bike,” says Irene.

St Joseph’s principal Chris Gladstone says she hopes the new track will be the place where a lifelong interest in biking can be sparked.

“It’s so cool seeing the kids get out there and get physical and develop those skills, it’s socially inclusive and fun.”

Year 8 student Charlie Weaver spoke at the opening of the track and says he remembers the day he and his brothers found out about the pump track – three years ago.

“As the saying goes, good things take time, but now I get to do my three favourite things - playing, fixing and riding bikes” Charlie is part of the maintenance team who spend break times maintaining the bikes, fixing any problems as people are riding, and ensuring that each child has a bike that fits them.

Nelson youth find new ways to conquer famine Kate Russell Reporter

kate@nelsonweekly.co.nz

Every time 16-year-old Laura Eyles reached for her phone over the weekend, she had to remind herself of those less fortunate than her.

The Nayland College student underwent a two-day detox from social media for the World Vision 40 Hour Famine.

More than 1,000 Nelson students took part in the country’s largest youth fundraising event, which ran from Friday night until Sunday.

Students can either take on a challenge or give something up for 40 hours - like food, warm blankets, speaking or technology, all to provide life-saving aid for South Sudanese refugees in Uganda.

This was the third time Laura had participated in the event and says she chose something that would be hard for her to go without.

“I had to uninstall apps like Instagram off my phone, but I still found myself always reaching for my phone to message people.”

Fellow student Neele Micholka went without her laptop and television for her very first famine.

“It wasn’t too hard, I just kept busy with other things,” she says.

Both are yet to do a final count of how much money they raised but say they hope they can make a difference.

Nayland College teacher and organiser Ihaka Griffin-Matthews says around 30 students took part and they also had a mufti day to raise funds.

The money will help provide nutritious food, clean water, foster care and household items for South Sudanese refugees from the moment they cross the border.

Since the event started in 1975, it has raised more than $80 million and helped thousands of children living in poverty in more than 40 countries.

Council pushes forward with divestment of community housing Staff reporter

Nelson City Council is pushing ahead with selling its community housing portfolio saying that the transition to a potential new owner will be carefully managed.

A council spokesperson says the divestment of the community housing portfolio will be conditional on a sale and purchase agreement that provides an appropriate level of protection for both tenant wellbeing and ratepayer interests.

They say there will be no sudden changes for tenants, and should the housing get a new owner, the transition process will be carefully managed.

The next step is for council to

Mayor Rachel Reese work with interested parties.

Mayor Rachel Reese reiterated that tenants’ wellbeing was a top priority.

“We received many very thoughtful submissions from tenants, and we understand their concerns.

“I can reassure tenants that their wellbeing will be at the

centre of our discussion with interested parties.”

Rachel says tenants will be kept informed throughout the process.

“Demand for subsidised housing to support people on low incomes or with particular needs is continuing to outstrip supply. Waitlists for council’s community housing have hit all-time highs, and we simply do not have the tools to grow our stock.”

She says the decision will hopefully enable growth of that supply, so more of the community can access these services.

“This is a significant step for council, and we believe it is a forward-looking decision for the city and both current and future tenants”.

Greenmeadows gets the thumbs up Sara Hollyman Reporter

sara@nelsonweekly.co.nz

The Greenmeadows Centre in Stoke has got the thumbs up from community members who came through the open day on Sunday.

The community hub has been involved in turmoil throughout the construction process but is now home to Stoke Seniors, Stoke Tennis Club and Stoke Rugby, as well as the Stoke ‘pop-up’ library.

The project originally tendered for just under $5 million but had been subject to delays and budget overruns. The current cost of the project is just over $7m. It was initially meant to open at the end of 2017.

However, on Sunday that was ancient history as hundreds of people filtered through the rooms to see the newly completed centre.

While some raised concerns over some of the rooms not being big enough, feedback was mostly positive with one visitor saying she is “excited for the centre to become a community hub”.

An art installation of 72 CDs sits at the entry point to the centre with Sunday’s visitors invited to contribute to the second installation by weaving a design onto their own CD. Nelson Arts Council arts administrator Heidi Lucas took charge of the art creation saying the idea came from wanting something that would “engage many people in the community”.

Chess club all Victory on debut Locally Owned and Operated

Jonty Dine Reporter

jonty@nelsonweekly.co.nz

It was a memorable competitive debut for the Victory Primary School Chess Club at regionals last month.

The young rooks went on to finish second at the tournament held at Clifton Terrace School with one of its players, Danica Balloch, named best female.

The result certainly came as a surprise to the eight-year-old.

“It took a moment to sink in for her because she just kept sitting down and we had to tell her to go up,” coach Reuben Prestige says.

“It came out of the blue, we knew she had been playing well all day but when it came to the prizegiving and all of a sudden Danica got top female and I was just so impressed.”

Reuben, who is a Nelson College student, volunteers one hour a week at Victory, offering his wealth of wisdom to the team.

Danica began playing chess two years ago at the school’s club which is continually growing in popularity.

“I like that it’s a quiet thinking game and it takes strategy.”

She says she was delighted with her performance.

“I’m very proud that I got best girl.”

The club was started by teacher and chess enthusiast Cathryn Hayes.

“It was just about learning the game and out of that we formed

the club for year 5 and 6. We have a really keen bunch of players.”

She says the players had worked exceptionally hard in the lead-up to regionals.

“We are extremely proud of them.”

Victory’s attention will now shift to Nationals in Christchurch on October 19, but the team has plenty of funds to raise before then.

“It will be a big ask but some of the kids had not been as far as

Atawhai before,” says Cathryn.

“So it would be just amazing if we could get the team to nationals.”

Billy the bookworm helping students Jonty Dine Literature levels are being lifted at Stoke Library thanks to its resident canine companion.

Young readers have been reaping the rewards of Billy the dog’s regular visits as they are able to read aloud confidently with no judgement or corrections.

Billy acts as a support dog for his disabled owner who is unable to leave home.

The owner’s mother, Nicki Berkett, says she wanted to get Billy out and about and what better way than to volunteer his time to children?

The five-year-old Shih Tzu-Maltese-lhasa has proven a hit with the wee ones as they often argue about who gets to read to the popular pooch first.

“He’s amazing with the kids,” Nicki says.

Nicki says the children grow in confidence as they read to Billy.

“Dogs don’t correct, they just listen, and Billy is a great listener.”

You can find Nicki and Billy at the Stoke Library at Greenmeadows on Wednesdays from 3.30pm.

Council spending: The decisions made not to provide funding for Natureland and additional funding for the Brook Sanctuary will have repercussions among Nelson ratepayers that will no doubt surface again before this year’s local body elections.

In the meantime, the talk on the street suggests the majority of ratepayers support those decisions. The statement made at the meeting by aspiring mayoral candidate, councillor Mel Courtney 'council has no money' is very revealing. I think most ratepayers have had an inkling about the state of council finances, but no one has been that totally upfront about it.

During the term of every council there is always publicly-stated concerns about council spending money on what ratepayers consider are non-core projects, but regardless of that, not much

changes. While council is struggling to make ends meet there should be a large sign erected in the council chamber when debates on budget spending are taking place that says 'is it essential or desirable?' If councillors took time to think that question through, then who knows - the council’s financial position may not be so dire!

Yours faithfully, Neville Male

Restoring dignity to local history one grave at a time: I have noticed some of the graves have had work ... love reading the inscriptions and imagining the folk beneath!

Robynne Harvey My grandfather lived in the house on Wakapuaka cemetery, his father was one of the last Saxtons. We spent lots of time visiting as he had many fond memories of his childhood there.

He would be pleased to see someone taking care of it again.

editorial@nelsonweekly.co.nz facebook.com/nelsonweekly www.nelsonweekly.co.nz I might have to go up and see my elders who are up the top of the hill. Good work, Brian. You’re a legend. Jane Murison This is one of the loveliest stories I've read in a long time. Thank you for doing what you do, Brian. People like you make this community the great place it is. Karyn Brain Good on you, Brian! We are regulars walking up at the cemetery every Wednesday morning, Frankie (my dog) and I - we love it up there! Robynne Harvey If you pass by Henry Arthur Wardell Burn and Olive Caroline Burn, could you give them a little touch for me.

They are my grandparents. (Mum and Dad are there too but their gravestones are only 15 years old). Caroline Turnock I don't know anyone up there, But I'd like to say THANK YOU!! for anyone who

can't. Kelly Stewart Thank you, Brian. My family from the 1800s are buried there. The Pahls.

Jacquie Webb My uncle is up there buried in a part of the cemetery that was so neglected we couldn't find or get to him for years.

Now it's been uncovered but still difficult to get down to, fenced off in a part that frankly looks like the council would just like to pretend it doesn't exist. Makes me sad and angry. Do they think no one cares about this group of people?

Pam McCorkindale Nelson dog park plan needs public’s input: Not a fan... unless it’s huge.

I personally wouldn’t use one as its potential for conflict (both human and dog) is too great and yes, I am a dog owner.

Nelson Matters Education is one of my strongest passions. It defines the sort of future our community and country will have. It is about giving every child growing up in Nelson the best possible start in life.

I am very proud of Nelson’s network of 30 schools and colleges.

They are well led by capable principals and skilled teachers. I am particularly appreciative of our volunteer Boards of Trustee currently going through elections who give so much to ensure our schools are well governed.

My job in Parliament is to ensure schools get a fair allocation of resources from Government to support their work.

My major concern is that school funding changes announced

in last week’s Budget are going to create unfairness for Nelson schools and families. Labour is in real trouble in education because it way over-promised in Opposition and has run out of money.

This has been the root cause of the massive teacher strikes that have caused the worst ever disruption in our schools. In Opposition they told workers like teachers that they were underpaid by 20%, but now in Government are refusing pay claims that are half of this.

This is just one of 57 Labour’s education promises that have not been delivered (see www.laboursreportcard.co.nz) This money problem has seen

Labour scale back its promise to end school donations.

The original policy was that all schools would receive an extra payment of $150 per pupil provided they seek no donations from parents. The policy now applies only to schools in ‘deciles’ one to seven. It means a third of the Nelson schools will miss out.

Next year Waimea College will miss out on $250,000, Waimea Intermediate $97,000, Garin College $77,000, Henley School $73,000, St Josephs (Nelson) $54,000, Brightwater $46,000, Clifton Terrace (Atawhai) $43,000, St Pauls (Richmond) $40,000, Ranzau $23,000, Appleby $19,000, Hira $13,000 and

You watch, this park will go ahead and then dogs will be banned from beaches, forestry, other parks etc. Look at other countries. Be careful people. Deana Jane Insley

I'm guessing people don't consider the back beach as being adequate. Christchurch has an excellent dog exercise park out at the Groynes. Does Council own any of the land on the landward side of the road out to the Boulder Bank? That might be a sufficiently large space. Can't think of any spaces big enough closer than that.

Dennis Goodman

544 Waimea Road, Nelson

Hope $11,000. These are big sums for parents to make up.

These schools are understandably angry. It will create a two tier school system in Nelson where a third of our schools will require significant contributions from parents.

The line between which schools get this extra and those who don’t, depends on decile ratings. These are outdated and unreliable. National’s policy was to ditch the decile ranking of schools with a model focussed on pupil’s needs.

Even the Education Review Office no longer uses deciles. The system wrongly assumes schools in better off areas do not have any disadvantaged families.

Breaking News

Love the idea. Our dog has been to the one at the Goynes in Christchurch, Rolleston and Rangiora and he has a ball. It can be a pretty social occasion for the owners as well. Great too, for people travelling with dogs to have a designated space for their dog/s to have a run around and refresh. Jackie Jeffery

The flaw in the policy is highlighted by Waimea College (Decile 8) now getting $250,000 less in Government funding as compared to Nayland College (Decile 6), Nelson College (Decile 7) or Nelson College for Girls (Decile 7).

I am personally advantaged as a parent of the last two colleges, but see it as very unfair for Waimea families.

These 12 school communities should not be discriminated against in this way. I will be doing all I can to ensure the Government does what it promised and provides fair funding to all of our schools.

Penny promising parade of fun

Charles Anderson

Editor

charles@nelsonweekly.co.nz

The Nelson Arts Festival was the first-ever regional festival Penny Ashton performed at, way back in 2003.

“I have performed there so many times since and always had a blast because the audiences are an absolute delight.”

So it seems only natural that she would want to come back. On June 22 and 23, Penny is bringing her much loved musical Promise and Promiscuity along with her new children’s show Captain Pinky’s Toddler Pirate Boogie.

“Captain Pinky also first set sail in Nelson, so she’s looking forward to bringing back some more barnacled, boogying good time tunes,” Penny says.

Penny Ashton will be skipping into town with two fun-filled shows. Photo: Supplied.

a comedy to sink your teeth into!

12 – 15 June at the Theatre Royal BOOKINGS: www.theatreroyalnelson.co.nz or phone 548 3840

“Basically, as a comedy actress and marriage celebrant, my professional life is all about love and laughter, and I’m looking forward to spreading myself about in sunny Nelson doing the same.”

Promise and Promiscuity has been performed for six years from Edinburgh to Winnipeg and now again is returning Nelson.

Penny has collaborated with Jane Austen to tell the tale of Miss Elspeth’s literary snobbery, cousin Horatio’s digestions and her mother’s nerves. Miss Elspeth is poised to tackle these issues armed only with a blushing countenance and excellent ukulele skills.

Captain Pinky’s Toddler Pirate Boogie takes Kiwi favourites, retro smashes and pirate shanties all combined for a treasure chest

of solid gold hits to make you and your toddler shimmy yer timbers.

Dress ups are encouraged, and the show is recommended for children under six years. Sailors under six months free.

Promise and Promiscuity is on at the Theatre Royal on June 22 at 7.30pm and Captain Pinky’s Toddler Pirate Boogie is on June 23 at 10.30am at the Nelson Centre for Musical Arts.

The Copy Press prints on demand, allowing clients to produce small quantities of their books at any one time and to return for reprints when needed. This both reduces the initial financial outlay for an author and as well as assisting in stock control and storage.

What about selling books? "We have three representatives presenting books to the book trade around the country," says Dave, "which is a significant drawcard for many of our authors who ask, ‘how can I get my book into bookstores?’” The Copy Press assists with exposure in the New Zealand market, by presenting books in a way that makes them commercially acceptable. Last year, The Copy Press assisted local author Brin Murray in the production of her book Children of the Furnace which has been selected as a finalist in the 2019 NZ Children’s Book Awards.

From Baroque to Beatles, music and youthful talent was on display at the Nelson Centre for Musical Arts on Monday night.

Ten groups of young musicians from five secondary schools across the Top of the South competed at the 54th annual Nelson Marlborough District, New Zealand Community Trust Chamber Music Contest.

Competition organizer RosieAnne Pinney says the audience was treated to an exciting range of music with dynamic performances from large groups of brass players and sensitive, precision playing from clarinet, guitar and string ensembles.

“It was a night of amazing variety

presented by some very talented, young musicians.”

The adjudicator, Amalia Hall, who is also violinist with the NZTrio, pronounced a performance of Darius Milhaud’s Sonata for Two Violins and Piano by ‘Les Trois’, as the winners of the night’s competition.

‘Les Trois’, is made up of three students from Nelson College for Girls - Flora Secker on violin, Jeni Choi on violin and Gloria Lee on piano.

‘Les Trois’ will be performing again for Chamber Music New Zealand on Sunday June 16 at the NCMA prior to the Francesco Turrisi jazz piano concert at 5pm. They will then go on to compete in Christchurch at the regional contest on June 23.

‘Life stolen’ out of man’s car Sara Hollyman A man who came to Nelson wanting to spread joy by giving away 100 free haircuts has had his “life stolen” out of his car while parked up at Tahunanui Beach.

Cadby Kong was in Nelson last year when he started the Door to Door Barber and gave away 100 haircuts.

He recently returned to Nelson for his next project, 100 memories for 100 people, which aims to give people a chance to capture a special moment for $50 - a fraction of the cost a professional photographer would normally charge.

Cadby returned to New Zealand, where two of his brothers were born in November 2017, with his mother and three brothers, after being deported due to visa complications while in Australia.

Since then he has been travelling the country freelancing as a photographer, videographer and barber.

Cadby says after photographing a first birthday party on Saturday, he stayed up until around 1am working on his laptop.

He decided to spend the night sleeping on Tahunanui Beach, as he had done the last time he was here.

“I feel bad for bothering people, I

have places I could just rock up to, but I feel bad, so I thought I’ll just go sleep there [at the beach].”

When he returned to the car, which he is borrowing, on Sunday morning, he found the window smashed and his backpack containing “his life” had been stolen.

The bag contained his camera, barbering equipment, computer, hard drive and printer - around $20,000 worth of equipment.

“People say ‘oh it’s just a backpack’, it’s not a backpack it’s my whole life in there. I know it’s my fault for parking there, it wasn’t smart.”

He says he was “kind of shocked” at how well he took the loss and holds a philosophical view of the events.

“I’m really grateful for what’s been happening.”

Cadby took to social media to share what had happened and within hours someone had commented saying they had found his camera on the beach and it has since been reunited with him.

His other belongings are yet to be returned but Cadby says he harbours no ill will.

“Every human being in this world, they do something for a reason, and when you understand the reason, you can have compassion.”

The forestry and logging industry in the Nelson/Tasman region continues to show its strength, resilience and importance to the economic strength of the region.

Forestry and logging contributes $114 million towards the gross domestic product in the Nelson/Tasman region, according to statistics released by the Forest Owners Association and compiled by the New Zealand Institute of Economic Research. The economic impact

of forestry and logging is larger than sheep meat, wool and beef and veal production.

The Nelson Port is the fifth largest exporter of sawn timber and logs in New Zealand.

With the economic impact undeniable, the inaugural Top of the South Forestry Awards will be held on Friday night at the Trafalgar Centre.

PF Olsen started off in Nelson almost 30 years ago, focusing on the establishment, and later tending, of the woodlots planted in the early 90’s. The focus has now shifted to the harvesting and subsequent replanting of these forests, along

with the planting of new ones under the new government’s One Billion Tree policy.

“Locally, we pride ourselves on the supply of logs to sawmills from our clients’ forests. This provides continuity of work for sawmills, but also provides more stable log prices than that of the export market, giving us and our contractors more confidence to invest in our businesses and resulting in a better service to our clients.”

Brodie was just 26 years old when he took on the Manager’s role which he says was a fair bit of responsibility managing 35 staff.

New Zealand will take on England at Saxton Oval on November 5 in what will a first visit to the city for the English. General manager of Nelson Cricket David Leonard says it is a massive moment in the evolution of Saxton Oval.

Green Machine reigns supreme Jonty Dine

It took 180 minutes to separate the sides, but Marist eventually prevailed to claim the Tasman Trophy following a dramatic final with Waimea Old Boys on Saturday.

The scoreboard at Trafalgar Park read 29-all at full-time as Waimea first five Campbell Parata slotted a clutch penalty to send the sides into extra time.

It took a further 18 minutes before Marist skipper James Hawkey put his side in front. This ultimately proved enough as the team held on for a dramatic victory.

James was at a loss for words following the final whistle.

“I’m just so relieved, I can’t believe we came out and did it. Faith was there and it’s a bloody good feeling.”

James says he kept the message simple as the clock ticked past eighty.

“Be patient, be positive and keep playing.”

Coach Gavin Briggs says his heart was feeling it after the thrilling win.

“My ticker is getting too old as it

Marist’s Sam Moli drives through the Waimea Old Boys defence at Trafalgar Park on Saturday. Photo: Evan Barnes/Shuttersport. is, but the guys showed a lot of character to play through that extra 20 minutes.”

Gavin says there was a key factor they had prepared for during the week.

“Pressure, we knew it was going to happen, but to that extent?”

The former Nelson Bays prop says Waimea would have been worthy winners and gave his men one hell of a fight.

“There were two very good sides out there. It’s unfortunate that there had to be a runner up but I’m just really proud and stoked

for our guys.

“We are going to enjoy a few drinks on this one.”

The competition’s top try scorer, halfback Cleve Barrell, again played an integral role for Marist.

His brace of tries in the final took his season tally to 12.

The 22-year-old says it was an unbelievable feeling to finally get across the line in a final.

“To lose in both last year and finally come through this year, it means so much especially with this group of lads, it really is special.”

Cleve was quick to credit his teammates for his try-scoring feats this season.

“It just makes it so much easier for me to play behind a pack going forward.”

He says he simply finished off what his team started.

“The whole team takes credit for those.”

Scorers: Marist 32 (Barrell 2, Sami, Saulekaleka tries, Briggs 3 cons, 1 pen Hawkey 1 pen) Waimea 29 (Stringer, Amberger tries, Parata 2 cons 5 pen)

Dan seeking global downhill glory Jonty Dine Reporter

jonty@nelsonweekly.co.nz

Speeding downhill on a skateboard at almost 100kph wouldn’t appeal to most people.

However, Dan Waterhouse is not like most people.

The Nelson skater’s body boasts a plethora of scars and grazes from the tumbles he’s taken over the years.

“I won’t be surprised if I end up needing skin grafts for my gouged face, shoulder, knees, elbows and hips,” he says.

But despite the danger, Dan says he thrives on the adrenaline of the sport and his passion will now see him competing against the world’s best.

The 21-year-old will represent New Zealand at the 2019 World Roller Games in Barcelona next month.

After not racing competitively for the last three years, Dan returned with a vengeance in April to claim seventh at the Gold Coast leg of the International Downhill Federation world tour.

He also recently obtained his degree in Art History from Victoria University and April’s race was his first since 2015.

“It felt good to hop back on the board.”

He says he is now itching to see

Nelson skater Dan Waterhouse will attend the World Roller Games in Barcelona in July.

Photo: Renee Edwards. how far he can take his talents on the world stage.

Dan has been skateboarding in some shape or form for over 10 years, but picked up downhill in 2010 after watching videos with some friends.

After conquering some of Nelson’s gnarliest hills, including Bay View Rd, Panorama Drive and the Takaka Hill, Dan will now take on some of the steepest streets Barcelona has to offer.

Dan says his average speed around Nelson would hit about 70kph with his fastest being

90kph down Mt Ruapehu.

“Going really fast around corners in a big group can look a bit scary, but we are in more control than people think.”

During eleven days of competition, more than 4,000 athletes will compete in disciplines such as Alpine, Artistic, Inline Hockey and Roller Derby.

Dan is confident his team will not just be making up the numbers.

“There will be a lot of really good racers, but New Zealand has a strong team.”

Dan has been working 50-hour

weeks at Scott Construction for the past eight months to get to Europe.

With no funding, all eight members of the New Zealand team must pay their own way.

“It is a lot of money I have to front, but if we can show the country and the world that we have a good team and a future, it will all be worth it.”

The games will act as a trial to determine the feasibility of a roller games in the Olympics.

“It would be an absolute dream to skate in the Olympics,” Dan says.

Though there is still a lack

of funding, pathways to professionalism are possible.

“It’s getting to between point where some people are able to make it as a profession.”

He says he hopes the games will act as the next stepping stone on that journey.

“We are all just really excited to represent New Zealand at this level, we never thought we would get here.”

Nelson dominate derby to go top of the table Locally Owned and Operated

Jonty Dine Reporter

jonty@nelsonweekly.co.nz

Connor Wilkins says he was a barrel of nerves as he took the field to replace injured Nelson College first five Niko Barton, only one minute into their match against Waimea Combined on Saturday.

However, Connor soon settled into his rhythm and amassed a whopping a whopping 35 points as a clinical Nelson hammered Waimea in the UC Championship.

He says, despite the spanner that was Barton’s injury, the side stuck to its plan and reaped the rewards.

“We came out and scored some good tries.”

With captain Anton Segnar returning to the openside, College were all class at Sports Park in Motueka and ran riot over their neighbours with some scintillating attack to rack up 90 points in a ruthless display.

The floodgates didn’t take long to open as Nelson raced out to a 12-0 lead with two quick tries to Taya Brown and Ben Faingaanuku.

Moments later, a heavily strapped Segnar made his presence felt

with a trademark pilfer to set up his own try after a superb offload

by Brown.

Waimea eventually were able to mount some attack as Mackay Springer went in under the bar, but Nelson responded immediately as its offload game began to overwhelm Waimea.

Nelson were gaining metres at will and Tom Thornally stretched the lead further with a typically powerful surge.

Waimea began falling off numerous first up tackles, creating space for Wilkins to cross for a sixth try.

Nelson’s dominance could not be halted, and Brown stormed his way over for a second time as Nelson took a 45-7 half-time lead.

The try came at a cost for Nelson however as Luca Inch was assisted from the field with a serious looking leg injury.

Things didn’t look any better for Waimea after a clearing kick went out on the full to put Nelson right back on attack.

Segnar strolled through some feeble defence to bring up the half century for Nelson.

Another devastating break by the inspirational skipper saw Nelson waltz back into Waimea territory,

Connor Wilkins scored 35 points as Nelson College ran in 14 tries in a devastating display of running rugby in Motueka on Saturday.

With the result assured, coach Warren Johnson took the opportunity to blood some new combinations with halfback Mason Lund getting a chance to run the ship from first five as

the diminutive Justin Yokohama was introduced.

The Japanese scrum half showcased his skills and produced a magical offload leading to replacement prop Jontee Taylor’s try.

A clean break by Daniel Rogers sent winger Connor Johnson away before Waimea gave its fans something to shout about with a second try to Springer.

However, normality soon resumed with Wilkins crossing for his hat-trick.

Lund was then rewarded for his efforts, running a superb support line off Johnson as Nelson entered the nineties.

Wilkins says a win over Waimea is always a great feeling.

“It was a pretty good performance from the boys, we were coming up against a few mates from old schools, so it was great to get the win.”

With five wins from six games, Nelson now sit first on the UC Championship table - two points clear of second-placed St Bedes and St Andrews.

The side now face a tough road to the finals with three consecutive away games starting with Christchurch Boys on Saturday.

Scorers: Nelson 90 (Wilkins 3, Segnar 2, Brown 3, Faingaanuku, Thornally, Johnson, Taylor, Lund, L. Inch tries, Wilkins 10 cons) Waimea Combined 12 (Springer 2 tries, 1 con)

Prices impress, Jacks stay top Jonty Dine Reporter

jonty@nelsonweekly.co.nz

Prices Ahurei picked up another comfortable victory in the Nelson Premier Netball competition on Thursday night, built on the back of its relentless defence.

After being named most improved in 2018, Holly Chandler has taken her game to another level this season with Prices.

The dynamic young defender picked off intercepts at will against a Stoke side with few answers to her and Dayna Whiting’s ruthless resistance.

Holly would nab a turnover in the opening minute to set the tone as Prices raced out to a 7-0 lead.

Natalie Fullman led her side around the court superbly from centre, linking seamlessly with Chelsea Reed and Lauren Chaney as the two sharp

The dominant quarter ended at 16-4 to the defending champions.

Holly started the second as she did the first while Chelsea and Lauren continued to punish Stoke at the other end.

Natasha Bannister showed some spectacular athleticism as she led the fightback for her side but they could only manage a further seven goals to trail 2711 at the break.

Stoke managed to slow the scoring to start the final quarter as coach Mandy Whiting took the chance to blood some new combinations.

However, Lauren soon rediscovered her radar and took Price’s lead past 20.

The win sees Prices kick clear of Stoke on the premier table, however Richmond F45 remain in hot pursuit after holding off a spirited Waimea College 46-41.

In the evening’s later games, Jacks kept its unbeaten record intact with a win over Motueka High while Nelson College for Girls recorded an impressive victory over Stoke SPORTWISE.

Change Is Good almost does the double Jacob Page Richmond-owned horse Change Is Good almost pulled off the perfect Nelson Harness Racing Club winter meeting at Richmond Park on Sunday.

The Mitchell Kerr-trained runner won the Winter Cup prelude on Friday but had to settle for second in the Winter Cup proper thanks to Storm Prince.

It was Change Is Good’s first tilt at 3000m and she was aiming for five wins in a row, but was run down by

Storm Prince, who got a softer run on the leader’s back and then used the passing lane to charge past the favourite.

Change is Good used to be trained at Richmond Park by Murray Pash and used all its familiarity of the track to almost win both its races over the weekend.

Change Is Good will likely head to the second day of the races in Blenheim in a fortnight.

The weather played its part on both days with large crowds on course on both Friday and Sunday.
