New life saving vehicles Jonty Dine A trio of new ambulances is set to start saving lives across the region.

The three vehicles were gifted to St John last week with one to be based at Richmond and one to each Motueka and Blenheim.

Territory manager Robbie Blankstein says ambulances no longer simply act as transport to the hospital.

“These are our offices - the days of working in a converted campervan are over.”

The highly-equipped, lifesaving vehicles do not come cheap, however, with each ambulance costing $220,000. But the new additions were made possible thanks to donations from Pub Charity Limited in partnership with Northend Hotels, including Armadillos, owned by local busi-

nessman Tony Crosbie.

Among the features is an automated Powerload Stryker Stretcher, which will reduce staff injuries and fatigue.

“Our job is unplanned; we pick up multiple patients often multiple times per day,” Robbie says.

He says the new stretcher will mean 70 fewer lifts per day for ambulance officers.

“It is one of the many design benefits.”

The three vehicles were dedicated at a ceremony last Friday. St John District operations manager for Tasman, James McMeekin, says the generous donation helps ensure local ambulance crews have the most up-todate vehicles and lifesaving equipment to treat patients.

“No one knows when they will need an ambulance, but if and when the time

‘Firefighters ‘extraordinary’ level of professionalism’ Matt McCrorie Firefighters were thanked for their hard work and ‘extraordinary level of professionalism’ by the Prime Minister last week.

Jacinda Ardern arrived in Richmond to personally thank those who helped during the Pigeon Valley forest fires earlier this year.

Three months ago, the regions fire crews were under immense pressure as they battled an enormous blaze that began in Pigeon Valley and saw thousands of nearby residents evacuate their homes.

The task was enormous, but now that it was all over it was time to rest, reflect and ac-

knowledge the contribution that so many locals made to help their community in a time of need.

That acknowledgment came right from the top, as Arden met with and personally thanked those involved with keeping the region safe.

“We’re really thrilled that the Prime minister could be here this week, especially in the lead up to national firefighters’ day” said Paul Swain, New Zealand Fire and Emergency chief.

The prime minister had nothing but praise for those involved.

“I saw, on a massive scale here recently, people making a contribution to their community.

We haven’t seen a fire like that

since the 1950’s. The fire was extraordinary in its scale and its intensity, but the professionalism of the firefighters was just incredible.”

Addressing the firefighters who were involved, Ardern said, “As we near a day that we mark as a day of thanks to those who work in our firefighting and emergency services, on Saturday, I’m here to give my very personal thanks to each and every one of you” Ardern was joined by West Coast-Tasman MP Damien O’Connor and Minister of Civil Defence Kris Faafoi, with Faafoi also extending his thanks to those involved, “At the end of the day, you kept your community safe.”

House sales fall Colin Williscroft

The number of residential property sales in the Nelson/ Tasman/Marlborough region fell in March compared to the same time last year, which was in line with the trend across the country.

Across the Top of the South, 241 properties sold in March compared with 257 in February and 318 in March last year.

In Tasman, 70 residential properties sold last month, up from 63 in February but well down on the 90 sold in March last year.

“The Nelson/Marlborough/ Tasman regions all saw the number of properties fall when compared with the same time last year,” Bindi Norwell, Real Estate Institute of New Zealand chief executive, says.

“With the continuation of activity, multi offers are still very common, especially in the lower price ranges, and we see that a positive outlook

for interest rates are somewhat helping these attitudes.

“However, the banks are certainly not easing up on their lending restrictions.

The lower levels of inventory available continues to affect the number of active first home buyers.”

Although the sales count for March across the Top of the South was down 24.2 per cent on the same month last year, the median price was 9.8 per cent higher.

Days to sell were six days longer than the same time last year, although the current figure of 35 days is the same as the 10-year average for March.

“The investor market continues to be at the same numbers as they have been during the start of the new year, and the trend of buying new builds instead of cheaper established houses appears to hold. Going forward, we are likely to continue to see an increase in priced properties and a steady market.”

residents at the Ernest Rutherford Retirement Village.

Lawrie and Hazel celebrated with their children and extended family on May 5, gathering for lunch.

Their daughter Kay said “We wish them every happiness and a few more years together to come.”

Tasman Mayor gets dunked Matt McCrorie Mayor Richard Kempthorne got dunked last week, with 97 litres of ice cold water.

On a freezing Wednesday morning, winners of the Tasman District Council’s ‘Beat the Mayor’ competition got to dunk Mayor Richard Kempthorne as a reward for beating his water saving efforts during the summer drought.

During the drought, Kempthorne issued a challenge that anyone who could beat his water saving would get the chance to dunk him.

One of the three winners, Ruth Bagnell, was at the Richmond Aquatic Centre along with Hope school students Tillie Young, Seraphina Barker and Thomas Whittle. Hope school was one of the schools which participated in the council’s school’s water competition over the summer. When asked about their water saving techniques, Tillie said that “we shut the pool.” “We missed it, though!” Thomas added.

Ruth said that things like drinking bottled water, tak-

ing very quick showers, and washing her face in milk helped her get her water use down, some days as low as 50 litres.

Richard and his wife Jane were able to reduce their household water use during the drought, but it wasn’t enough to save him from being dunked himself. “We managed to get down to 97 litres between the two of us. Things like no outdoor watering, short showers every second day, making sure we have a full load in the dishwasher or washing machine.” Richard says that what the council consider essential use of water is 125 litres per person per day.

The average use is 250 litres.

“I really like this initiative, as it was a fun challenge and a good way for a serious issue to be publicised. I’m glad so many people got on board.”

Although he admited defeat, Richard said that he was stoked at how the contest turned out, and that “the efforts of everyone who reduced their water were crucial to seeing us through the drought this summer.”

New Principal welcomed at Mahana School Matt McCrorie Paul Shand was welcomed with open arms to Mahana School, as he begins his role as the school’s new principal.

The school held a mihi whakatau, a welcoming ceremony, for both Paul and new families joining the school.

Paul is familiar with the area, having come from Motueka South School and Upper Moutere School before that.

Paul and his family also spent five years in Malaysia at The International School of Kuala Lumpur, where he was the Activities Director, and also the Acting Assistant Principal for a time.

Excited to begin his new role, Paul said that “Mahana is a school with heart and a fantastic community. It has an excellent reputation and we are called Mahana for a reason, as you can feel the warmth as soon as you come through the school gate.”

The school welcomed Paul with a waiata and kaikaranga to welcome Paul and the new families. Songs were sung by Mahana school students welcoming Paul, as well as by Motueka South students saying farewell. “I am very excited, and feel privileged, to be joining the collaborative team here. My first steps are to continue the school’s many strengths and to get to know the wonderful community.”

Dovedale School to mark milestone

High fire risk caused the Dovedale School’s 150th anniversary to be postponed earlier this year.

However, that hasn’t stopped the community forging ahead with the new celebrations planned for this month.

A weekend reunion will celebrate the school’s rich 150 year history, inviting any former students and teachers to return and celebrate together.

The reunion starts on Friday, May 17, with a guided tour of the school and a mix and mingle family barbeque, which will be a chance for former pupils to catch up with old friends, classmates and former teachers.

Saturday’s programme kicks off with an official opening with speeches, a time capsule placement and an unveiling of the new

school plaque. Current students of the school will be there performing an item of historical proportions, followed by lunch in the school grounds.

The afternoon will be more laid back, with a cricket match between locals and visitors planned, set in the tree- flanked domain.

The whole event will be rounded off with a dinner and dance at the nearby Moutere Hills Community Centre.

Dovedale School was built in 1880 after classes had been previously held in the local church. This was built earlier in 1869 and funded by many local families on land donated by Apo Hocton and Jacob Russ.

The Dovedale community has long been a strong force and that continues today with support and hard work

put in by the residents committee.

The school itself has almost always been the hub of this relatively isolated community and is still an integral part of it. Dovedale is a full primary school of 41 children, with two full-time teachers and one part-time teacher.

The school has moved with the changing times and the school values reflect this by encouraging resilience alongside academic excellence and cultural experiences. Children at Dovedale School live by the motto “Flying Together”, represented by the dove in flight against the hills and mountains that surround the valley.

Anyone who fancies a trip down the memory lane of your school days, or is curious to see what the school has evolved into, is encouraged to go along.

There’s a new face but a similar philosophy at the head of Nelson Building Society.

Tony Cadigan took over as chief executive of NBS at the start of the year but he says after 18 and a half years in senior management roles at NBS he represents a ‘steady as she goes’ appointment.

Tony was lured to NBS in 2000, when he was working for ASB in Auckland, by the man he’s replaced, longserving general manager Ken Beams, who retired at the end of last year.

Ken and Tony first met when Ken coached Hokitika’s Westland High School’s 1st XV where Tony was a player.

“So when he called about a job at NBS, I listened,” says Tony.

He says he didn’t know much about NBS back then but quickly realised it was too good a chance to turn down.

“The opportunity to come to Nelson and raise our kids, who were young then, was the major carrot for us. It was good timing.”

Tony first took the role as

Since 2000, NBS has grown its assets from $60 million to $828 million, which represents double digit growth year-on-year since the turn of the century.

“It’s an incredible legacy that

Ken leaves,” says Tony. “And being able to sit beside him through that journey has positioned me to take over.”

He says the short-term focus is on staying the course.

“It’s steady as she goes for the time being, I need to take the time to find my feet before doing anything too adventurous. We’ll continue to

foucs on our customers and the things we do well.”

Tony’s appointment has also seen a shuffle of NBS’ senior management team.

Toni Lane moves from Richmond branch manager to be regional manager. Howie Timms moves from Motueka branch manager to commercial manager. Greg Dykzeul is the new Motueka branch manager and Brent Williams is the new Richmond branch manager.

With almost two decades at NBS, Tony says he’s excited about his new challenge.

“We think we’ve done so well and have such a great brand and profile, but it feels like we haven’t touched the surface. I think that’s what excites me the most, we’ve done so well but we can just keep getting better.

“When people think about NBS I want them to think about a community bank. I want us to be respected and I want to be an employer of choice.

“We’re going great, but in some respects we haven’t started yet and that’s what is so exciting.”

Terms and conditions ap ly. broccoli 2 FOR 2 The death of native trees in the Nelson/Tasman area is thought to have been caused by the recent drought, the Department of Conservation says.

DOC botanist, Shannel Courtney, says root stress from a very wet winter and spring in 2018 had already weakened the trees and the extremely dry conditions are proving fatal. “It is a much worse event than the previous big drought in 2001. As we are likely to have more droughts due to climate change, we can expect to see vegetation dieback like this happening more often.”

Nelson helicopter pilot Matt Gibb has commented that this is the first time he has seen this many dead native trees in 25 years of flying around Nelson. “The ridges, especially, are speckled with dead trees, including in the Wairoa Valley and the Wangapeka area of Kahurangi National Park. They are becoming very noticeable” he says.

Dead trees have also been reported in the Murchison and Nelson Lakes area, the Wairau Valley in Marlborough, the Marlborough Sounds and the Takaka area in Golden Bay. DOC staff have seen extensive areas of dead mahoe in Abel Tasman National Park’s Wainui Inlet, browning rimu trees on dry ridges

near the Heaphy Track, and dead beech trees particularly in places where they grow on thin or stony soils along the banks of the Buller River.

Dead introduced species, including pines and eucalyptus, have also been reported.

The impact of the drought isn’t all bad for native plants.

Shannel says that two criticallythreatened plants have increased in number following previous droughts; shovel mint that grows only in the northern South Island, and pygmy button daisy, found in Marlborough’s Rai Valley.

DOC says that it is also possible heavy beech seeding this summer could have added further stress on the trees.

Beech species flower around October and develop seed from December to March, which coincided with the driest conditions.

“Further tree deaths are likely for up to two years due to factors such as soil type and insect or fungal attack on trees weakened by drought and other stressors,” Shannel says.

Shannel notes that while the forest will eventually regenerate once dead trees fall, there is some risk of woody weed invasion where there are wilding pines or other types of pest plants growing nearby.

Velodrome road open Opinion on council sought An annual survey of Tasman residents’ satisfaction with their Council begins on Friday, 3 May. The council has commissioned the National Research Bureau (NRB) to carry out the survey. The survey provides data on people’s levels of satisfaction with our services, and on which Council decisions they approve or disapprove of. The council asks anyone who is contacted to take part, to use the opportunity to give feedback – the results help shape the future of the services and facilities we provide to the community.

For the second year in a row, the survey will include face-to-face as well as phone interviews. With changes in demographics and use of technology, it is important that those who do not have a landline phone are represented.

NRB will survey 400 residents over the age of 18, using a randomised selection method.

NRB will be contacting residents from 3 - 19 May. Although the results of the survey are made public, individual survey respondents’ details are confidential.

The access road for the Saxton Velodrome is now complete, with entry from Champion Road linking to a new parking area beside the Velodrome. Now this access is available, the informal route from the internal road through Saxton Field will be closed to motor vehicles.

Rescue Chopper Appeal Tasman locals are being asked to

give generously for their local rescue helicopter service. Westpac is launching its Chopper Appeal Month to support New Zealand’s rescue helicopters, which flew 7,374 missions nationwide last year, and 451 flights in the Tasman and Marlborough regions.

The appeal aims to raise funds and awareness for the rescue helicopter services, with all donations going back to the region where they were collected. Westpac NZ General Manager of Consumer Banking and Wealth, Simon Power, says accidents can happen anywhere – including close to home..

Petition gets 50,000 Signatures The petition to help a Nelson firefighter who helped fight the Pigeon Valley forest fire earlier this year gain residency has gone past 50,000 signatures, but it has failed to persuade immigration officials that Steve Webster and his family should be granted residency.

Steve Webster, originally from the UK, is a member of the volunteer fire brigade in Stoke and was involved with protecting the region from the forest fire that started in Pigeon Valley in February, and moved to New Zealand in 2012 with his family.

Last month Steve and his family were denied residency but were granted another 24-month work visa.

Garin students at Laugh Nelson Garin College’s theatre sports team is getting ready to perform when Laugh Nelson returns later this month. The team will join their counterparts from Nelson Boys College, Nelson College for Girls and Motueka High School as part of the event, which is being held at the Suter Theatre on May 25 from 7pm to 9.30pm. The headline act is award-winning stand-up comedian and actor Cohen Holloway, who has more than 15 years of stage experience to draw on. A former Billy T Award nominee, Cohen has also appeared on 7 Days, and in movies including Thor, Boy and Hunt for the Wilderpeople. He performed at last year’s Nelson Arts Festival with his band The Maori Side Steps. Laugh Nelson is aimed at 14 to 24-year-olds and is free to attend.

New beds for Nelson Hospital Kate Russell Reporter

kate@nelsonweekly.co.nz

A brand-new unit at Nelson Hospital is set to ease the pressure on bed space before the busy winter season hits.

The 10-bed Medical Assessment and Planning Unit (MAPU) opens on 1 July.

It will receive patients needing medical care, allowing people with multiple medical conditions to be assessed by multiple medical professionals.

Doctors, nurses, physiotherapists, occupational therapists and social workers will all be working in the space, so that a comprehensive care plan can be put in place for patients.

This will improve the patient experience, ensure that investigations and treatments are quicker, and decrease wait time.

Nelson Hospital emergency department charge nurse manager Sharon Scott will manage the unit and says it will be a huge help until hospital’s long-awaited redevelopment takes shape.

“We don’t have many medical beds compared to the size of our population. It will improve the

Some of the key staff from the new unit are, from left: MAPU Associate Charge Nurse Manager Jodie Winwood, MAPU and ED Charge Nurse Manager Sharon Scott, Team Leader Pharmacy Sonja van Alphen and Allied Heath Lead Deidre Crichton. Photo: Kate Russell. flow of the hospital and reduce the waiting time for patients in ED,” she says.

Sharon was one of the team who

set up and tested a trial unit between August and October 2018 as part of a 10 week pilot programme.

She says the results of the trial were impressive and is delighted that the unit is being made permanent under Nelson Marlbor-

ough Health’s Models of Care programme. “We surveyed patients and 51 out of 53 rated their care as either ‘outstanding’ or ‘good.’ They told us that they appreciated the level of attention they received in the ward and the privacy the ward offers.

“Patient experience is an important factor in patient care, and to a patient’s recovery in hospital,” she says.

People will be referred to the hospital by their GP and will be fasttracked through ED into the new unit.

Other patients will be admitted to the unit from ED. Sharon says that the other main benefit of the unit is that fewer medical patients will have to be admitted to the surgical ward because the medical ward is full.

And, as well as creating more beds, the unit will be creating 14 new jobs in the region.

Sharon says people can view it as a more “intensive” unit with a higher turnover that aims to have patients discharged within 36 hours. This will likely help to ensure that the hospital isn’t operating above its capacity, and that patients can get more specific care. “It’s not like a normal ward, its very patient-centred.”

Tasman mission a go Matt McCrorie Tasman District Council is hosting the “Tasman Mission - A Sustainability Race” for students aged 7 to 12 years old, (upper primary and intermediate) being held 9.45 till 2.30pm Friday, May 10, 2019 at Whenua Iti Outdoors, 375 Main Road, Lower Moutere.

In past years Nelson and Tasman Councils have joined together to put on the Moturoa Mission – an event at Rabbit Island for upper primary-aged students where lots of different organisations, including DOC, TDC, Whenua Iti Outdoors, Motueka High School, Nelson Environment Centre and more provide activities, and schools have a go at some of these activities as they navigate round a course. This year, Tasman District Council are organising the event, which will now be based at Whenua Iti Outdoors.

Nettie Stow, Communications & Funding Coordinator for Whenua Iti Outdoors, says that “the objec-

tive is to bring together students, with a passion for action in their environment, to interact with a range of environmentally-connected learning experiences, and to have fun!”

Nettie says that that the event’s success heavily relies on the support of many of local environmental, cultural or health educators, including Otago University through Richard de Hamel, The Cawthron Institute, Experiencing Marine Reserves, DOC, Project Janszoon and more.

The day runs from 9.45am till 2.30 pm, with activities from 10.30am till 1.00pm, and Tasman schools can put forward one team each ,and each team of 4 or 5 students will have a map of the Whenua Iti grounds and a score sheet. They will be told their starting station then have two and half hours to complete the tasks at as many stations as possible.

Schools should contact claire.webster@tasman.govt.nz for more information or nettie@wio.org.nz

The life and achievements of a former Wakefield resident – reportedly the oldest person to land on Gallipoli peninsula during World War I – is the subject of a new information panel on the Wakefield village green.

Surgeon Lieutenant Walter Relf Pearless was 61 when he landed at an area that would later be called Anzac

Cove, on April 25, 1915.

It was a baptism of fire.

Upon landing, Walter quickly established a field station to treat the wounded. The casualties were serious. On his first day his battalion had 20 killed, 89 wounded and 101 listed as missing.

Born in East Grinstead, Sussex, England in 1854, Walter gained a pass for junior stu-

in South Africa in the Boer War. His South African service led to him being awarded the Queen’s South Africa Medal and a promotion to Surgeon Lieutenant Colonel.

As well as Gallipoli, Walter also served in France during World War 1.

He returned to Wakefield after the war and re-established his medical practice.

He died in December 1924 at the age of 70. His funeral was held with full military honours and was one of the largest seen in Wakefield at the time.

He is buried at St John’s Church.

The idea for the new information board, which was installed on April 23 this year, in time for Anzac Day, came from the Wakefield Mural Group.

The group acknowledges the financial support it received from the Wakefield Community Council, along with historical research assistance from Vic Evans of Nelson, local historian John Dearing and Roger Batt from the Waimea South Historical Society, along with the work of Matt Arps, of Matty’s Signs.

The photos that are part of the display were supplied by Walter’s great granddaughter, Penny Richards.

Our Christian Community News and Views

Just a thought...

Daryl Bay KiwiBank recently ran a Facebook campaign called “I AM HOPE.” The campaign obviously struck a nerve and reflects our deep ache for identity, belonging and community. Hope is a currency of the heart, more valuable than all the wealth in the world.

Hope-rich people have an anchor for the soul when everything else is moving. They smile at the future.

They progress through their challenges. They choose to love those around them with purpose and patience. They make their world a better place. Is that true of you?

HopeFest 2019 is our church’s way of saying two things. First, we love our community and we want to see it flourish and prosper. We dream of a community in which individuals know wholeness, families know love, and together we grow and care for each other. HopeFest is

a small contribution towards that dream. Any church or organisation can focus on itself – HopeFest helps us focus outwards.

Second, HopeFest shares the message that in our sighing world, ultimate hope is available. This year, national trauma and local fires have been dramatic and publicised. But under the radar, personal fires and trauma are everywhere in our community. We have found that hope in Jesus Christ goes beyond anything this world can offer. Hope is not a campaign, a concept, or an event; hope is a person. To anyone who would come to him, Jesus offers unconditional love, forgiveness from our past, and freedom to become all that God created us to be.

So check out the HopeFest programme, here or online at www.hopechurch.org.nz. Feel free to get in touch. We’d love you to come and join us at any of these free HopeFest events.

The Big Share Fair is HopeFest’s most popular event. For one morning the Big Share Fair offers all manner of goods and services for free! Everyone coming on the day will receive free ‘Hope Notes’ money which can be used to buy all manners of things. Come along to Hope Community Church on Saturday, 18th May, 9.30am – 12.30pm.

Questioning Faith, Following Jesus Kiwis have a lot of questions about religion right now and Hope Church has a “doubters welcome” mat at the door.

During the month of June, at our 9am and 11am gatherings, we are wrestling with some of New Zealand’s big questions about faith, religion and Jesus.

How can there be a God in a day of shootings and fires?

Aren’t all religions the same anyway? What is “tolerance” and what if I’m not sure who I should tolerate? Are all Christians bigots? What evidence do I need to have faith in God anyway?

We can’t promise a tidy little

answer to every big questions – but we can promise you a person who for centuries has provided grace, truth and lifegiving love.

You’re welcome to come and explore with us, as we consider what it means to follow Jesus. June 2, 9, 16. Hope Church, 9am and 11am.

Hockey Nelson is running a series of coach education workshops this month.

On May 9, from 6pm to 8pm, it is holding a workshop focused on player-centred coaching.

It’s aimed at adult coaches involved in coaching junior players up to 12 years of age.

That includes those who are, or will be, part of the coaching team on the junior hockey programme and those who coach junior teams.

The workshop will focus on how to use a fun games approach to develop skills and tactical knowledge in young players.

It will cover the Sport and Recreation New Zealand’s (SPARC) NZCoachApproach, the Teaching Games for Understanding programme and developing game sense through playing games.

The workshop, at the Saxton Field Hockey Pavilion, will be facilitated by Sport Tasman community sport adviser Julie Price.

On Saturday and Sunday, May 11 and 12, from 8am to noon both days, there is a ‘growing coaches’ workshop for coaches aged between 13 and 18 years old.

It is aimed at coaches who are, or would like to be, part

The workshop will focus on the roles and qualities of a coach, player-centred coaching, how to use a fun games approach to develop skills and tactical knowledge in young payers, managing groups, session delivery, practical skills for coaching hockey and a Hockey New Zealand Small Sticks course.

Nelson Matters I am a staunch opponent of recreational drugs. I have personally witnessed hundreds of lives ruined by drugs from my school and university days through to my community and constituency work as Nelson’s MP. I see the impact drug abuse has on family violence, crime, child neglect, suicide, welfare dependency, our road toll and people’s mental health.

The change causing controversy this month is the amendments to the Misuse of Drugs Act directing Police that they may only prosecute for possession of illegal drugs after considering all other options, including treatment. This radical change ap-

plies to all illegal drugs like cannabis, meth and heroin. The NZ Law Society says that under these changes they cannot foresee any prosecutions being taken for possession of illegal drugs. The Police Association strongly oppose it saying it amounts to defacto decriminalisation. It will make Police’s job of limiting access to drugs near impossible.

The Government’s philosophy behind these changes is to make drugs a health issue rather than a criminal issue. I am all for increasing access and support for drug treatment and rehabilitation, but these programmes will always have mixed success rates.

The best cure is prevention. I am

also all for educational programmes that help young people make better choices. The problem with decriminalisation and going soft on enforcement is it removes any personal responsibility and sends a signal that drug use is not a problem.

The Government is also proposing, at the Green Party’s insistence, a referendum in 2020 on legalizing cannabis. This in itself sends a message to young people that the Prime Minister and Government thinks cannabis use is OK. The medical evidence on cannabis, like from Otago University’s world famous longitudinal study, shows its use increases mental health problems, reduces education-

Delivery will be interactive and practical. On completion, coaches will receive a Sport New Zealand leadership certificate.

Participants must be able to attend both days.

It will be facilitated by Julie.

On Thursday, May 16, from 6pm to 8pm, it is holding a coach mentoring programme at the same venue.

It is aimed at coaches who

are part of the coaching team on a junior programme and will cover the role of a coach mentor, effective observation, feedback and support, and coach mentoring in practice.

Julie will also facilitate this workshop.

For more information on any of the workshops contact Julie at Sport Tasman or Tamara Dudley at Nelson Hockey.

al achievement and acts as a gateway to more serious drugs.

I am cautious of the argument that if you regulate rather than ban a recreational drug, you can better manage its harm. We tried this in 2013 with party pills and synthetic cannabis and it was a disaster. People falsely believed these drugs were safe if the Government was regulating them.

We also need to look to other countries and states that have been experimenting with legalizing cannabis.

The experience is that usage increases and so has the harm. Criminal gangs remain involved. Age limits are easily evaded when a drug becomes legal.

I am also frustrated that the Government has made no attempt to address the ongoing problem of drugged drivers. The number of drugged driver road fatalities at 79 now exceeds drink drivers of 70 per year. National has repeatedly tried to introduce a Bill enabling random roadside drug testing like for alcohol, but this has been opposed by Government parties.

This Government’s soft approach to drugs is seriously flawed. We need to be strong, clear and consistent that happiness does not come in a bong or a bottle. These measures will make us less healthy, poorer and a less successful nation.

Police emphasise caution for hunters Matt McCrorie

“We know this year is going to be a little different with the new firearms laws and we want to make sure people are clear about the changes and what they mean for their hunting this season,” says Mike.

Police have put a video and frequently asked questions on their website for duck shooters, to support people in their understanding of the new laws and are encouraging all game bird shooters to take a look.

“We know that going hunting with your mates is fun and having a drink with your mates is fun too – but these two activities should never be mixed,” says Mike.

More safety information can be found on the Police website. Hunters of all levels of experience are encouraged to look at the safety material.

This means making sure people are vigilant about safety,” says Acting Superintendent Mike McIlraith.

“This includes refreshing yourself on the seven rules of firearm safety and making sure you’re familiar with your firearm and have inspected it, especially if it’s been in secure storage since last season.”

Mike says that the last thing police want is hunters facing injuries because they weren’t being careful with their firearms. Mike acknowledges the recent changes in the law and wants to help provide clarity for hunters this season.

Tasman Rugby League in crisis Jonty Dine After plenty of optimism to kick-off the season with new sides and seemingly a resurgence in the region, the Tasman Premier Rugby League competition has folded.

The call was made to cancel the competition after the Stoke Raiders defaulted for a second consecutive week.

The league was initially set to be a five-team competition before the Wairua Taniwha was forced to withdraw just prior to its scheduled start.

It only got worse as the Stoke Raiders had to forfeit on April 27th and again on Saturday in their planned fixture against the

Victory Phoenix.

Tasman Rugby League, said in a statement, ‘the sides organisers have advised that they don’t believe that this side is sustainable for the balance of the planned competition.”

“Despite this well-intentioned attempt by a number of people to keep rugby league in the Tasman area alive, due largely to player unavailability and the loss of teams, keeping the competition going has not been possible.”

To ensure players from the remaining clubs, the Greymouth Greyhounds and the Phoenix have an opportunity to continue to play, they have agreed to a three-match series in the com-

ing weeks.

The first of these will be played in Greymouth on the May 11 with the final two to be played in Nelson on the May 25 and June 8.

Plans are currently being formulated to provide rugby league for those interested later in the year.

Development Officer Dominic Tola will continue to deliver the popular junior coaching programmes in schools and provide competitions at junior and teenage level for keen young players, both male and female.

The annual Intermediate Schools tournament and the Simon Mannering Cup will be the culmination for these players.

Team wins feathers trophy

Wakefield Bowling Club recently hosted a special tournament sponsored by Tasman Funeral Services.

Play was preceded by a “Kiwi breakfast” and a remembrance ceremony led by retired Royal Navy Commander Denis Hall and former New Zealand serviceman Peter Fitzwater.

There were cash prizes after each round of games and the overall winning team of Bruce Smith, Geoff Litt and Reuben Ellis was awarded the “Wakefield Feathers” Trophy, which is made from cap feathers from soldiers who were at the Boer war.

The Wakefield bowls winter season starts on Saturday, May 11, with an open day for members and anyone else interested, commencing 11am and including a barbecue lunch.

The winter season includes mini tournaments on Wednesday afternoons, social roll up and social evening on Fridays, interclub events, Club days on Saturday with various events and full day open tournaments on alternate Sundays.

Wakefield holds a very popular two-day tournament over Queens Birthday weekend, which attracts teams from throughout the country.

Peter Harman, Gavin Milne, David Carpenter, Paul Gibson, Garry Pollard, and Graham Howden competed against one another in the Long Putt competition.

Greenacres hosts national golf event This year was the 6th year of the Festival of Golf and the 4th year that TSB has been the primary sponsor, and yet again the event had the terrific support from TSB during the tournament. Over 120 players from 45 golf clubs throughout New Zealand, including the local club in Richmond, arrived into town to play in this weeklong tournament.

There were 50 returning

players and 70 first timers, and they arrived into Nelson’s great weather on Sunday, and by the time they left the following Saturday, all they had experienced was sunshine all the way. The region certainly stood up to its reputation of being the sunshine capital of New Zealand.

The event ran like clockwork and the players thoroughly enjoyed all three of the re-

gions 18 hole golf courses, Nelson, Motueka and Greenacres. All the courses were presented in great condition, and the players loved them all. The tournament had its first female overall winner, with Julia Greig taking the honours.

The tournament also had its first hole in one during the tournament, with Julie Hamilton scoring an ace on the 3rd hole on the last day. She

was presented with a $100 voucher from Hello World Nelson as a prize.

The tournament is supported by the Nelson Regional Development Agency Programme. The programme’s objective, is to stimulate the regions economy in the shoulder and off seasons, by bringing new spending through visitors coming to the Nelson and Tasman district for local events.

Wanderers Sports Club Report Night rugby returned to Centennial Park, Brightwater, on Friday night with the Taylors Wanderers Women team hosting Motueka in ideal conditions, in front of a reasonable, passionate crowd.

The supporters were entertained by a curtain-raiser between two lovely Under 6 teams from the same clubs, who, although in the very early days of their rugby careers, displayed all the values that make the sport so attractive, notably discipline, respect and courage, with the supporters all displaying equal amounts of passion.

All coaches, managers, players and parents are to be commended on the FUN factor that was always promoted in this match. The Wanderers Under 6 Gold team is Harrison Davis, Mason Holder, Taylor Martin, Ryder Mathews, Lucas Nordstrom, Keagan Perriam, Darcy Rasmussen, Mack Rawson and Ryder White Pressure Prevails The main event, although a highly-competitive encounter with championship points at stake, was also a good advertisement for sport in general, but women’s rugby in particular, with the skills displayed being of a high standard for only the second game together for both teams.

Ten tries were scored in total and both teams enjoyed periods of dominance where they were able to exert pressure and score points, and at the 65 minute mark the teams were tied up at 22-22.

However, in the final analysis it was the visitors from Motueka who created the greater pressure and eventually prevailed with two tries in the final 10 minutes to take the points 22-36. For Wanderers, tries by Katie Silcock x (2), Tessa Silcock and Amelia Hammett.

This photo includes six girls from our JAB teams who acted as Ball Girls for the match: Samara Bright, Aurora Flemming, Makenna Holland, Sarah Jones, Grace Mathewson and Libby Roche. All the above girls play in JAB teams with boys and attended a female training camp with the Women’s team last month. All part of the aim of growing the game and improving the experiences.

Strong Performance It was a strong performance by the Wanderers team as a whole, advancing more and more each week and gelling very well as unit with strong individual performances by forwards Katie Silcock, ShakiaLee Biggs and Leila Nisbett. There were some excellent runs by back Amelia Hammett, and fine first season games by Tempest Ropiha and Tamara Mati.

Coach Ian Biggs: “As coaches, all we ask is that the team work hard on and off the field, exactly what we are experiencing with this tight group of enthusiastic ladies, growing our women’s game week in, week out”.

The Taylors Wanderers Women will have a bye this week and return to play at Wanderers Club Day on 18 May against Waimea Old Boys.

Friday night rugby is obviously popular with players and public alike so Wanderers will endeavour to provide further matches at Brightwater during the season, especially while the ground situa-

tion at Lord Rutherford Park exists.

Outstanding Defence On Saturday, the Taylors Wanderers Div 2 team headed out to Tapawera to play the Valley Stags with a team vastly different from the previous week due to duck shooting commitments, necessitating 9 changes in the line-up.

As expected, this did cause some disruptions to the teamwork initially, and against a spirited Valley Stags side a close game ensued.

However, the team rallied behind Brad Pool who was outstanding as a ball carrier and on defence, justifiably winning the Player of the Day award.

Wanderers kicked away in the final quarter to win 46-14 in a score line that did not accurately record the closeness of the contest.

Charlie Munroe had a good points haul with an outstanding day off the tee and coach Steve Leef was particularly pleased with the manner that the team worked together, again emphasising the develop-

ment of this team, with new players arriving to training every week and then contributing as required on the field.

Players Refuse to Yield The Taylors Wanderers Div 1 team were hosted by Stoke on Saturday afternoon in front of a good crowd at Greenmeadows. The game was important to both teams, with Wanderers wanting a Top Four spot on the table and Stoke hoping to arrest their unbelievable run of narrow losses.

Stoke definitely started in the right manner and raced out to 22-nil lead after about twenty minutes and looked the better team in all facets of play.

However, there is a character within the Wanderers team this year that refuses to capitulate and slowly they climbed back into the contest and shortly before halftime finally crossed the Stoke line.

22-5 at halftime was a fair reflection on the play in the first 40 minutes with Stoke, playing towards their clubrooms, dominating.

There was no noticeable wind, and the ground certainly appeared level, but the second half continued in a similar fashion to the first with the team playing towards the clubrooms dominating. This time Wanderers won the second 40-minute period 27-8 for a victory 32-30.

It was a remarkable match with Wanderers scoring 6 tries in total with only 1 successful conversion and Stoke having the chance to win after full-time with a penalty that, fortunately for Wanderers, narrowly missed, with many players from both sides unable to watch.

Wanderers took maximum points and Stoke got 2 bonus points.

Stoke now have 8 bonus points after 7 games and are a better team than the 1 from 7 would suggest.

Wanderers on the other hand may yet rue the fact that, in the entire competition, only Central has less bonuses than them.

Coach Glenn Grant commented that Stoke’s efforts allowed the hosts to dictate, with Wanderers lacking accuracy and patience especially in the first half. The big positive was playing the full 80 minutes and the team this year is a good blend of senior players with a nice mix of new players to the club and some young boys promoted from Div 2 also, which was reflected in the presentation of debutant ties after the game last week with 11 new recipients being acknowledged.

With Waimea Old Boys and Marist drawing 26-26 on Saturday and sitting first and second on the table, Waitohi 3rd and Wanderers in 4th position, this week’s round should see some movement with Marist against Waitohi, and Wanderers hosting East Coast at Brightwater.

Wanderers Sports Club acknowledges the wonderful support from our valued sponsors and partners

Richmond F45 claim first season outing Richmond F45 has started the 2019 premier netball season with a win over defending champions, Prices Pharmacy Netball.

With new additions of Maddison Springer, Harriet Ogilvie, Tia Van Diepen & Ruby Jenkins added to the squad, the Richmond F45 netballers now have a balanced squad of well experienced and seasoned players Kat Jones, Sharon Finch, Amy Cunningham, MacKenzie Orange & Sarah Steel, to blend with the youth in their side. They are looking fit, focused and ready to make their mark.

A slow start was interrupted by a superb intercept from Goal Defence, Kat Jones, with Sarah Steele at Goal Keeper also making her point known. Prices defensive unit of Dayna Whiting & Holly Chandler were in usual tight form, Holly responding with two clean intercepts, ending the first quarter 9 - 8 in Prices’ favour.

Positional changes were made after the first quarter, Jones moving to Centre, Amy Cunningham to Goal Defence and Maddison Springer to Wing Defence.

The strategy made an immediate impact, with Jones’ experience throughout the court to steady the play. Steele snatched two intercepts and the shooters made better angles. Richmond F45 ended the quarter strongly, seeing in half time at 21 - 18.

Third quarter saw Ruby Jenkin enter the court at Wing Defence and Springer switch to Goal Defence.

Ogilvie made excellent space followed by slick shooting to end the quarter 31 - 30.

With the scoreline tight Richmond F45 were asked to put the pedal down. They delivered with a great defensive start to the final quarter, complemented by the shooters working well at the opposite end of the court. Springer making two crucial intercepts to help push Richmond into the lead and capitalising in the last few minutes.

Prices will be disappointed to have let this game slip away, however both teams were guilty of complacency at times with ball being thrown away.

Richmond F45 will be pleased to bank a final score win of 41 - 36.
