Tahunanui School principal Paul Drum-mond has fired off a plea to the govern-ment as he prepares to leave for the capital: “Don’t suck the joy out of school.”Paul has been elected president of the New Zealand Principals’ Federation, taking up his new full-time role in January. The job means a year away from his family and school as he will commute to his new of-fice in Wellington each week.But ahead of his arrival to the home of the country’s lawmakers, Paul told Waimea

Weekly the government’s national standards are a farce and he wants to see them removed. “Political decisions are being made around education that schools, teachers, principals, researchers and boards know a little bit more about than the politicians that are making the decisions that affect us,” says the Richmond resident.Paul has been a fierce opponent of National Standards, but says he doesn’t

want to get in a fight with the government, he would rather be diplomatic and talk through the issues. Although his stance is clear; he would like to see the gov-ernment backtrack on the policy that has galvanised principals and teachers around the country in opposition to it.He says his new role will be about giving principals a voice, and

key to that is more input in to education

policy. “We [the federation] get criticised because we are political but that’s what we are advocating for, political issues – why wouldn’t we be? We are increasing critical; I don’t think we need to make any apolo-gies about that.”Paul has spent six years on the executive board for the federation, two years as sec-retary and is currently its vice-president. He was elected, unopposed, to head the Paul

Drummond.

It’s business time as the Rugby World Cup playoffs loom, and de-spite all the games being held in the North Island, locals will still get a piece of the action.The pool matches are done and dusted, but once the quarter finals have concluded, Nelson and Mo-tueka will again hit fever pitch. Both centres are hosting fan zones and will screen all the semi final and final action live.You can be at the heart of the action and watch the finals on a massive 20 foot screen in Nelson’s fan zone at the top of Trafalgar St or at the Mo-tueka Recreation Centre.Although food and soft drinks can be taken into the perimeter of the fan zone, glass, alcohol and BYO al-cohol will not be allowed. So, come on down and get in the zone, urge organisers. Regardless of which teams are playing, the atmos-phere will be electric, they say.Fan zones start on October 15.

“I use my herb garden a lot. There’s rosemary, thyme, mint and lemon grass. It’s great hav-ing a garden at home.”

Ian Gibson, Richmond.

This week we launch our new gardening column Growing Things. How often are you out in the garden at home?

Robyn Scherer, Richmond. Stuart Bubb, Richmond.

“I don’t get in there as much as I probably should do. We’ve got a few veges; radishes, cab-bages, carrots, peas. It’s great, it saves a bit of money too.”

“I’m not really in to gardening, no. I’ve got a little wee patch that my boy was in to, but he’s not living with us at the mo-ment.”

“It’s relaxing. I’ve got vegeta-bles, flowers - the lot. I would definitely read a gardening column.”

Tasman’s latest del-uge of rain has put the Waimea River on a flood scale you would expect only once every three years, says Tas-man District Council.The Waimea river at the Appleby bridge peaked at 830m3 per second on Monday, a volume that is expected once every three years, says TDC analytical hydrologist Matt McLarin.Over the Monday-Tuesday period there had been 200mm of rain in the Richmond ranges at the top of the Wairoa river and

120mm on the Waimea plains over the same time frame. The statistic is still down from May 26 of this year when the river had a flood of 1073m3 per second.

organisation which represents 2147 of the country’s principals, more than 90 percent. National Standards aims to measure students in key subjects including maths and English. Those results are then passed onto parents so they can gauge the rate at which their child is learning. It will bring more account-ability to teachers and schools, says education minister Anne Tolley.But Paul says it is a “low trust, top down model” that has disenfran-chised schools. “They want to some-how drive more out of the system but you’re not going to get more out of teachers, schools and parents by wav-ing a big stick and demanding more. If you involve them about how we can

make it better, isn’t that more likely to get the outcomes that we want? “We feel the voice of the profession is being ignored and trivialised by the government. The argument has big appeal, because who doesn’t want to lift achievement? But they are going about it the wrong way.”Paul says he will push those issues and others facing principals when he moves into his new role. “It is excit-ing and balanced with a healthy bit of anxiety and trepidation because I’ll be away from my family and school for long periods of the year. But it will be exciting for me personally and I’m looking forward to it.”Paul says he is looking forward to working with the new government after this year’s election, be it either National or Labour.

A group of Waimea College learning centre students will literally be build-ing on their success following a suc-cessful trade experience unit.Ten students were involved in the building of a shed which is being ten-dered and sold on TradeMe and all the money raised will go towards new tools and new materials for the next project.Trade-Ex was the brainchild of Learning Centre teacher Trent Dalli-more, who says some of the less aca-demic students needed some “hands on work” and experience to give them a kick start in the trade industry.“The boys that I had needed some-thing a little extra. They actually gained a lot of real-world experience,” says Trent. Waimea College’s Learning Centre has been running the trade experi-ence programme since the beginning of Term 2. It began with a pinecone pick to raise funds for materials and equipment.Experienced builder Ken Ferris jumped on board to lend some wise skills and all his knowledge.Kent Gibbons from Waimea Saw millers has been a major factor in enabling the programme to run, says Trent.Placemakers on Saxton Rd was also “very supportive” and donated mate-rials and gave plenty of advice to the young builders.Students worked on the shed for two hours a week, and Trent says there was a notable spring in their step when it was Trade-Ex time. “It started with an idea, we had no equipment. We’ve built this up from nothing. The support from the community was just awesome. Most of

them have gone on and that’s really positive.”The next project is likely to be chicken coups, although they are open to suggestions from the public.If you are interested in the purchase of the shed, or to contact Trent at the school phone 544 6099.The TradeMe auction closes on November 30.

An All Black cap presented to a Brightwater farmer in 1931 has found its way home, almost 40 years after his family thought it had been lost.Former All Black Donald Max was handed the cap after his first test match against Australia in 1931. When he died in 1972 his family distrib-uted his All Blacks memorabilia, with the cap going to one of his two sons, Doug, who lived in the North Island.Then, tragically, Doug died just five years after his father, in 1977, leaving the cap in the pos-session of his wife. The couple did not have any children and the widow remarried, holding onto the All Black cap. The Max family did not know Doug had the cap and assumed it had gone miss-ing until this year when his former wife passed away. Her second family, not having any rela-tionship with Donald Max, tracked down his 87 year-old son Gordon, who still lives in Brightwa-ter, and handed it back to the family.Gordon says it’s good to have his dad’s cap back where it belongs – for his family to cherish it and prolong the legacy left by the three-test All Black. “It means a lot, not so much for me, but for the family because, with all due respect to the

present All Blacks, there was far more aura with the All Blacks back in the day,” says a thrilled Gordon.Donald, a towering lock, played eight matches for the All Blacks and debuted against Australia in 1931.His first game was the final match that featured a scrum formation of 2-3-2. He was used as a blind-side flanker after that and scored one test try, worth three points.Back then, there were no reserves, only “emer-gency players” that could only come on to the field if a doctor was present to sign a certificate for the injured player.Gordon was six years-old at the time his father debuted in the black jersey, but he remembers it like it was yesterday. “After the football on the Saturday we had to light the copper and boil all the gear,” he says. “He had a lot of bandages and part of my job was, once the bandages had washed and dried, I would throw it out in front of me and roll them up for him.”He also remembers watching his dad head off to Nelson rep practice at Tra-falgar Park on his Harley Davidson motorbike and use the shed outside for

catching practice with his brother. “We had this big shed and he would practice his kicks by kicking over it.”Donald broke his leg playing against Australia in 1934, which ended his first class career. He then made the transition to referring and then on to administration where he became the president of the New Zealand Rugby Union in 1949.Donald was the fourth inductee in the Nelson Sports Hall of Fame.

Health ‘complex’ opens its doorsThe Lower Queen St Health Centre is officially open for operation.Minister of Health Tony Ryall, along with National MP Nick Smith, Tasman District Mayor Richard Kempthorne and members of the centre unveiled the building on Friday midday. Construction started in October last year on the 2400 square metre, two-storey health centre next to Oakwood Retirement Village, and was originally due for completion on July 1.Housed in the Lower Queen St Health Clinic are; Vanilla bean café, Medlab South, Fry’s pharmacy, Matthew’s Eye-wear Eye Care, Hearing Advantage,

Tasman Medical Centre, Specialists @ Lower Queen St, Richmond Physi-otherapy and Healthcare New Zealand.The multi-million dollar centre is the result of a collaborative approach to providing for Richmond’s growing health needs, funded entirely by private investment. The centre’s spokesperson, Ben Castle, believes the provision of a broad range of health services under one roof is the best model both for patients and pro-viders. “It provides excellent syner-gies for health professionals working together towards a better health care model,” says Ben.

Mentors give Henley kids a helping handBig Brothers Big Sisters has been such a hit at Henley School its principal John Armstrong says its turned the area, between the schools, in to a campus.Waimea College students have been mentor-ing Henley School students in various activi-ties over the past year and the relationship has been hugely beneficial for both schools. “It has a real campus feel to it now. Just last week we had students going over to the college for a perfor-mance and one girl spotted her mentor in the crowd and waved out to her,” says John. The thirteen mentors were recognised with a morning tea and a certificate late last week.

Payless has extended to Nelson, opening an outlet store in the old Briscoes building in Achilles Ave.The store has a permanent site by the lights on Gladstone Rd in Richmond but has taken a four month lease of the new site, bringing their quality products with bargain prices to the heart of Nelson says manager Wendy Hunt.“This is an outlet store; we are bringing our top 1500 lines here and offering great prices for Nelson folk without them having to travel to Richmond.”Payless is not just about plastics either says Wendy, with huge lines of food products,

books, gaming, sheets and towels, camping equipment, electrical products like toasters and plenty of storage products. The new store is open seven days a week and Wendy hopes Nelson people will take advantage of the new store. “We are here for four months and have options to extend, but at the moment we are just seeing how it works. We know a lot of people from Nelson travel to the Richmond store but we also know there is a lot that don’t, so hopefully we’ll see some new faces.”To check out the huge range of stock Payless have moved into their new store. pop in and pay them a visit or give them a call on 546 7370.

TDC TO EXTEND: The Tasman District Council is to go ahead with planned build-ing renovations and extensions. Approval to accept the recommended tender was given at a special council meeting Thursday afternoon. The works will include strength-ening and renovation of the 1962 build-ing which has been identified as requiring major earthquake strengthening. Further work will provide more office space to an-swer the long discussed overcrowding and to bring the staff currently spread about in different buildings into one.

LOOK OUT FOR PHONE SCAM: If you re-ceive a phone call on your mobile from any person, saying that he or she is a company engineer, or telling that they’re checking your mobile line, and you have to press #90 or #09 or any other number, end this call immediately without pressing any num-bers. There is a fraud company using a de-vice that once you press #90 or #09they can access your ‘SIM’ card and make calls at your expense.

Traffic lights erected to increase flow on SalisburyTasman District Council and Waimea College are confident that a new set of traffic lights will help ease the flow of traffic on Salisbury Rd.The project was given the green light after several years of plan-ning and a 10 percent increase of traffic congestion.More than 15,000 vehicles a

year use Salisbury Rd, accord-ing to the TDC and it was this reason, along with Waimea College’s concern for safety outside the special education department, that placed the project on high urgency.Council is funding 50 percent of the cost of installing the new signals and markings from its

Subsidised Minor Improve-ments Budget for 2010/11. The Ministry of Education will pay the other share as well as the entire cost for altering kerbs to accommodate the new access-way.Contractors, Fulton Hogan have scheduled an October 10 completion date.

Nelson Police are currently targeting those steal-ing scrap metal and copper as demand for and value of these products grows.“Over the last year more than 800 dishonesty offences have been reported to Nelson Bays po-lice relating to the theft of copper wiring, copper cylinders and other scrap metal and it continues to be a problem in the area,” says sergeant Shane Miles.He says a considerable amount of police time and resources are being spent investigating these offences. “I would encourage members of the public, particularly in rural areas, to form neigh-

bourhood support groups and to report suspi-cious behaviour or individuals in their area to police immediately.” He added the community could also help reduce the growing number of burglaries and thefts by removing and selling scrap on their properties themselves or by keeping these types of items se-cured and out of sight.Anyone with information about metal thefts should contact constable Steve Gardiner at the Nelson Police. To give information anonymously, call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

Bomb squad at college

Waimea College and Salisbury School students watch in awe as a $300,000 bomb deto-nation robot successfully finds a replica explosive during a demonstration at Waimea College last week. Photo: Phillip Rollo.

The security team for the Rugby World Cup exploded into Waimea College last week.The team - made up of mainly Cantabrians, featured a dog handler, armed offenders and bomb detonation staff - demonstrated their capabilities in front of Waimea College special education and Salisbury School stu-dents. Students spent the beginning of the day try-ing on bulletproof armoury - some weigh-ing up to 40kg. Christchurch Airport dog

sniffer Luca showed off his clever skills, able to find a replica bomb just by scent.Waimea College special education teacher Ed Book says the day was a fantastic op-portunity for both students and the security team. “It was pretty split though, some liked Luca and the other liked the robot,” says Ed. “It was a great opportunity to see what they actually did. It was really neat.”They were here for Nelson’s final two match-es.

The thought of riding on some of the roughest roads in the region has Neil Albury smiling.But the thought of doing it on a scooter brings a slight wince to his face.Neil is one of the newbies, signing up for the second Survivor Scooter Challenge that will see a group of peo-ple ride, off road, from Mar-lborough, through Nelson and Tasman and finish on the West Coast. Founder Jason Monopoli says the challenge is for anyone and everyone, with many of the starters not motorbike riders.Neil says he signed up for the challenge for a bit of fun and to try something new. “I’m in to this sort of thing and when I saw it I thought it looked like great fun, and with great people, so I gave Jason an email and here we go.”Neil bought the scooter local-ly and took it to Morley Mo-torcycles for a tune up before the race this month.For more information on the race visit www.survivorscoot-erchallenge.co.nz.

Science behind the artCollege student wins big at regional Science Fair

Science Fair chief judge Des Duthie says passion and effort were the key factors in selecting Aliesha Shutte as the winner for 2011.The Cawthron Nelson Science and Technology Fair awards were held at Broadgreen Intermediate School on Fri-day evening and it was Tasman schools which dominated the major results.Aliesha, of Waimea College, discovered the effect of exposure on the emotion exhibited by a photograph and Des says her effort in a “very difficult concept” made her stand above the rest.Using the same ISO and aperture, Al-iesha took a photo of a blank piece of paper with different shutter speeds looking for the speed that would show the most detail and colour variancy. She then used a histogram to show the lightest point and darkest point in the photo. “I’m really in to photography and it annoys me when people use Photo-shop. It doesn’t matter if the photo they take is bad, they just fix them up. So I just wanted to show how people can get good photos without using Photoshop,” says Aliesha. “I was experimenting with the shutter speed on the quality of the photo and so if you have a really long shutter speed it will be really bright, so it was just to find the right balance.”Aliesha says her experiment has actu-ally helped her immensely understand-ing her camera and its abilities and was rather surprised to take home the win-ning trophy. “I was really excited, really

surprised though. I was originally doing it for the credits.”The 18 year-old scooped three awards on the night and took home a total of $900 for her efforts. Although she says she is interested in doing medicine when she is older, the year 13 student says she is not a “super keen scientist. I would definitely en-courage people to try it though, even if it’s just to meet cool people at the sci-ence fair.”Des says the number of schools holding their own fair has increased dramati-cally. “We actually limit the number of entries to 120 each year and it’s over-subscribed by three times that. With so many schools taking part but only a limit on places it has really increased the quality of entries.”While there was not a common theme among entries in 2011, Des says most of the participants chose to investigate something a little closer to home than in other years.Nayland College students; Mitchell Chandler’s ‘Gard Against the Frost’ and Cadence Nikkel’s ‘The Tasteful Life of Birds’ both shared the award for runner up in the overall senior category.Joshua Venables of Henley School took out best overall best junior with his Nerd Fun with Nerf Guns experiment.Des is standing down as organiser after ten years involved in the competition and is take up a head of science role at a school in the Cook Islands.

SPEciAL OFFER FOR RichMOnD RESiDEntS


New Zealand’s cycle trail ambassador Sarah Ul-mer and Tasman mayor Richard Kempthorne took to their bikes on Sunday to officially open the new 6.8km section of Tasman’s Great Taste Trail that runs through Rabbit Island. The new section of cycle trail, which is suitable for all ages and fitness levels, runs from the en-trance to Rabbit Island through to the Mapua estuary, where a brand new ferry has been built to transport cyclists and walkers across to Ma-pua’s bustling wharf area. Tasman’s Great Taste Trail is a joint project be-tween the Nelson Tasman Cycle Trails Trust, Tasman District Council and The New Zealand Cycle Trail. The trail’s overall objective is to create a 175km cycle trail in a loop around Tasman from Nel-son, passing through Mapua, Motueka, Riwaka, Ngatimoti, Tapawera, Kohatu, Belgrove, Wake-field and Brightwater and back to Richmond.New Zealand Cycle Trail Programme Manager John Dunn says Rabbit Island has been a pop-ular daytrip for some time and it’s great to see that both locals and visitors alike will now have the chance to enjoy more riding on the island thanks to the new trail and cycle-friendly ferry service.Funding has so far been secured for the Nelson, Richmond, Mapua and Brightwater sections of the trail.

In the words of a popular song... ‘where do I begin’! I really should talk about Spring. It is such a lovely time of year and this one is no exception. I have just come in from a long walk with Cruze [my dog] and along the Railway Reserve it is a mass of colour and fragrance. The colour is from one of my favourite spring flowering trees, the amazing deciduous Magnolias. Thought to be one of the oldest of the true flowering plants, they come originally from Asia (especially China and Japan) but they have certainly made their presence felt here in Nelson. Some of my favourites are the old fashioned Magnolia soulangeana and some of the

modern hybrids from the Campbellii are quite stunning also. Vulcan, Black Tulip, Star Wars, and my all-time favourite Felix. Could not resist this photo from such a small tree. Hardly up to my shoulder and he produces at least one or two of these glorious blooms every year. I have called himWith Robyn Hollis The thing about these trees is that they come in sizes thatcan fit all garden spaces. The lovely Liliiflora Nigra is delightful and only grows to two metres or so, with the beautiful Susan or Sayonara being names to look out for. Also, the Stellata or Star Magnolias are compact growers – less than two metres and make a lovely showy small tree in the

smallest of gardens.Enough of the flowering things, we also have work to do...

• Time to feed most plants in the garden now. • A dose of Sequestrene around and over your hardworking Daphne and around the base of any Citrus is a good thing to do now. • Sequestrene is a tonic rather than a food which gives acid loving plants a boost and enables them to take up the food that you will give them. Epson salts is a quick fix for yellowing leaves on Daphnes but to my mind not as good.• Citrus also need feeding now (or could have been done last month). They are gross feeders needing a good quality citrus food or extra potassium and some good

compost with blood and bone for those who do not want to chemical feed.• Roses are starting to leaf up and need a feed now also. Burnetts Gold (they also have a citrus food) or Thrive for roses – if in doubt about what to use ask your garden centre staff – they will assist you.• Watch for the first signs of the aphids now – I saw some on my new leaves

the other morning – so although I do not spray much I will have to use the Mavrik or Shield for a first hit. Mavrik is kinder to the bees but Shield is a systemic spray which gets into the plant and means less spraying in the long run. Super Shield is also good but is only a contact spray which means you will have to spray a little more often.• Always spray in the early morning before the sun, wind (and bees) come out. You can add a spray fixitive to your mix but always, when all else fails, read the instructions! Do not be tempted to add more when spraying – the right amount is important, you will not get a better “kill” with a stronger mix and you run the risk of burning new foliage.

I think that will do for this week folks - next fortnight we will chat about lawn care, also feeding….gardens are a hungry lot, and the vege patch.If you have any questions for our Q & A section please email them to: [email protected]. I will do my best to help.

Proprietors Maureen and Graeme Crook welcome you to their recently renovated country cafe.

a time. They ensure you enjoy your stay with the emphasis on a clean, tidy room and a comfortable, warm night’s sleep. The location is peaceful and the views from the room are of rolling mountains, so that even a stressful business trip becomes relaxing.The focus of the café is on “enjoying a nice meal with great views and a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere”. Graeme and Maureen are involved in all aspects to make sure that it keeps the personal touch that they strive for. The newly renovated kitchen opens out behind the counter and their full time chef, Clare Johnson, is always there with a friendly greeting for customers.Graeme and Maureen are very community focused, sourcing their

fresh produce locally. All of their bread is made from scratch, as are their pies and pizzas. Their menu is changed frequently, with seasonal meals available.Having reopened in June, Flat Rock Café is under the new ownership and has undergone major renovations. The building was established in the late Nineteenth Century and was formerly well known as a hotel and bar. Much of the original charm has been preserved, while the extensions and upgrades maintain the rustic country feel. They have a large car park leading to the sundrenched courtyard dining area, through to either the dining room or the verandah, where you can enjoy the sun and the views.

The feedback that the couple has received so far is very positive. Their intention is to create a place that feels personal and serves great quality, fresh food that supports local suppliers, with an affordable price to match. The diners all respond positively to the inviting atmosphere and friendly staff. You only need to come once to realise why they already have so many return customers.They are open every day, on Monday through to Thursday from ten until four, and Friday through to Sunday from ten until six onwards, staying open later through the weekend if customers are still dining. Come in to enjoy quality food and company with a welcoming atmosphere and beautiful views.

For 50 years the Nelson Savage Club has been lighting up halls, rest homes and schools around the region with its brand of variety entertainment, and this weekend it will celebrate those years the best way it knows how – with song and dance.The Savage Club was founded in London in 1857 as an alternative to the gentleman clubs of the time; its name was taken by a little-known and recently deceased poet by the name of Richard Savage. Its choice of name was intended to rile the establishment.It didn’t take long for the concept to take off and by the early 1900’s Savage Clubs were being established in New Zealand, even one in Nelson. But the First World War dwindled its numbers so much that the Nelson chapter folded. In 1961 a group resurrected the club in Nelson, and today it continues to operate, with around 50 members attending its monthly shows in Tahunanui.Past president Philipa Hardman says the group regularly plays at concerts

around the city, in rest homes and church halls. The brand of entertainment makes it a special group to be involved in she says. “We have talent from all genres and all backgrounds. One minute you’ll be listening to classical piano, six minutes later it will be a comedy skit and then a singing group.”The group is welcoming eight other clubs from around the country to its birthday this weekend at the Suburban Club. The concert on Saturday night at 7.30pm and is open to the public. If you’d like to come along and watch, or perhaps come to one of their monthly shows, call Philipa on 547 7022 for more information or tickets.

Like most of you, I am enjoying watching some of the Rugby World Cup games – and the excitement is surely building as we head towards the most exciting finals. It’s such a good thing to be a spectator I reckon. Sure you have to pay to get in, but hey once there you just sit or stand and holler you head off, wave a flag, and enjoy the excitement about what your team is getting up to. Ironically, life can feel like a spectator sport sometimes – lots of heroic people getting up there and doing great things, while we just sit and cheer them on. However, I implore you not to accept that mentality. We are all called to be participants in the game of life, fully involved, doing the hard yards of practice and discipline – so that we ourselves will actually reap the rewards. What rewards? Well delayed

gratification, or self denial while training for the better to come, is how to come out best in life. Those who simply live for self and the immediate moment – will not know the joy of actually

earning a high reward. Spiritually the same principle is true. When you sow into the spiritual realm, so you reap from it. When you ignore the spiritual dimension, you suddenly find there is a vacuum when you need that help. I am talking here about God’s help which is promised to us in two ways. Firstly, there is the promise of finding solace, strength and meaning in a life fully engaged with God.Second, there is the promise of delayed gratification, eternal life, when you have fully lived a good life focussed on God and Jesus, and others not just me. Don’t be a spiritual spectator – find a good

church and get involved in having an active faith working with others on the team.

David Preston offers both acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicines treating a range of injuries, illnesses and health concerns. David is a fully qual-ified acupuncturist and has spent years training both in New Zealand and in China. The range of ailments that patients come to David for treatment for is wide. Digestive problems, constipation, acid reflux, urinary problems, depression, sleeping disorders, fatigue, allergies, menstrual disorders, joint pain, respira-tory disorders and high or low blood pressure to mention a few. David says that acupuncture is absolutely outstanding for back pain, arthritis, and sciatica as well as headaches and stress relief. But he says “Often the conditions people come for are quite vague. People know they are unwell and can’t put a finger on it. They just feel that things aren’t right and that their health is deteriorating.” David spends a lot of time with them, asking lots of questions. In the end ‘nine times out of ten’ the treatment is very simple. David treats with a combination of acupuncture, massage and Traditional Chinese Medicine, which has been around and evolving for 2500 years, looking beyond the symptoms to the root cause of a condition. Call him today for an appointment on 544 4610.

Volleyball HQ right here in RichmondNew Zealand’s head office for one of the world’s largest sports can’t be found in Wellington, Auckland or even Christchurch.Volleyball New Zealand calls Richmond home. The head office of the sport moved to Richmond about 18 months ago after its general manager, Hope resident Pam Brodie, told the board she had enough of commuting to the capital and was returning full time to Nelson. She said they could either move the office with her, or find a replacement.The board opted for the former and now employs two locals with another two part time staff in Christchurch. Pam says having the office in Richmond is a big deal for the region and shows that any sporting code can operate from anywhere.“I hated going to Wellington, I was the mother in the back room, living with my son and his partner and I hated spending my week in Wellington. When

I’d fly home on a Friday night I just loved coming back.” She says the future of the sport in New Zealand is through beach volleyball, as it is too tough to find 16 top and dedicated athletes, in an amateur sport, to take on the world’s super powers who have all the resources in the world. “But we can produce two outstanding beach volleyball players, and the goal is to start getting some of those teams to the Olympics.” Pam – who remarkably is married to the president of New Zealand Volleyball, Allan Brodie – is joined in her Nelson office by operations manager Julie Carpinter. She says the sport is “sustainable” in this country but only gets a limited grant from the government, via SPARC. Pam says Tasman has a strong bond with volleyball and is one of the top performing regions in New Zealand, so it is a nice fit that it’s HQ is also here. “Tasman punches well above its weight in volleyball.”

Three of the region’s top women footballers say competing against boys during the winter had primed them for ASB Women’s Youth League selection, and hope to show a new physical side in the upcoming season.Fourteen year-old Juliana Los has been selected in the Mainland Pride squad along with last season’s players Lara Malcolm and Young Football Fern defender Emily Jensen. Lara says playing the winter season for Suburbs Blue Crew in the Robbie’s Bar & Bistro 17th grade against male counterparts has seen them take their physical game to the next level.“For me personally, in the women’s league I don’t get much action in goal,” says the 17 year-old goal keeper. “Against the boys I have to be on my game a lot more and it’s a lot busier. It’s also a much higher level of football compared to what we get here and I’m quite excited to be actually playing this year.”Juliana and Lara also play for Nelson College for Girls, while Emily, 16, attends Waimea College. Emily is currently away with the Young Foot- ball Ferns in a three match series with Australia in Auckland.

The ASB Women’s Youth League is the premier women’s football competition in New Zealand and the girls agree it’s the best way to make a name for themselves while they are still at sec- ondary school. “It’s really exciting,” says Juli- ana, a central midfielder. “I just want to prove myself, up my game and play to a higher level. Basically just to develop as a footballer. I aspire to that and hopefully one day soon I will make a New Zealand team.”Juliana is the youngest member of the team that will compete in the Southern Conference of this season’s ASB Women’s Youth League, but packs a punch in the middle of the park despite her small frame. “I do my best,” she says.Last season Lara was based in Christchurch over the summer holidays, but with the 2011 edition to be played between October and December to align with the ASB Youth League, the girls will have to commute between cities.Mainland Pride finished third in the Southern Conference last year and the girl’s are hoping to go one better this season and make the playoffs.Mainland Pride open their league account against Capital on October 15 in Christchurch.

Speedway ready to roarThere will be plenty of fireworks on and off the track as the Top of the South Speedway opens its gate later this month.The open night, on October 29, will also double as the Guy Fawkes evening and race fans can expect an action packed season with the biggest production class numbers in recent history.Club president Christine Carpen-ter says Stockcar numbers have increased dramatically after the announcement that the 2012/13 New Zealand Superstock Cham-pionship will be held in Nelson.But this season, the might and speed of the super saloons will be doing it in the dirt at the Top of the South Speedway.

On January 13 the New Zealand Super Saloon Championship will take place in Nelson. “This is huge,” says Christine. “It’s the premier event, so it’s really good that it’s in Nelson.”Ian Burson and the Carey broth-ers – Shane and Mark – will all be in with a sniff for the champion-ship.Christine says the speedway cal-endar has been shortened due to the Rugby World Cup, but it means that there will always be a significant trophy up for grabs. “Every single race meeting is an event, it’s not just a meeting.” Gates open on October 29 at 5:30pm with races set to com-mence at 7pm.

Ian Burson races his new super saloon as the lead up to the Top of the South Speedway nears closer. The 2011/12 season is highlighted by the New Zealand Super Saloon Championship on January 13. The season opens on October 29. Photo: Blair Hall/Photoaction.

Winners from the The Totaradale Golf Club Championship last week are from left: Adrianne Wislang, ladies senior, Robbie Stuart, mens senior, Paul Tunnicliff mens junior, Sally Manning, ladies intermedi-ate, Erica Mytton, nine hole ladies, Shona McLean, ladies junior and Shane Miles who took out the mens intermediate grade. Golfers had been involved in the qualifying process for weeks before the tourna-ment. The Pigeon Valley course is also gearing up for Twilight Golf, a more social version of the game. Twilight Golf runs every Wednesday throughout the summer and is a great way to get a feel for the sport. The first round of Twilight Golf will be held on Wedneday October 12 and starts at 4:30pm.

Navigation Safety Action: Extension of Temporary Reservation of wastewater pipeline corridor across Waimea Inlet between Bells Island and MonacoPursuant to provisions of the Tasman District Council Navigation Safety Bylaw 2005 (Amended 2006) and the Local Government Act 1974, the Tasman District Council and Nelson Harbourmasters granted a temporary reservation to March Civil Ltd of a corridor of the waters of Waimea Inlet between Bells Island, Saxton Island and Monaco, for the installation and maintenance of a wastewater pipeline between 14 February 2011 and 20 October 2011. Due to unanticipated delays, this has been extended until 31 January 2012. The effect of the temporary reservation is to allow contractors involved in the project to control access to or across the reserved area, including defining or closing navigable channels for small craft, in the interests of safety. Closures will be notified by signage at Best Island, Rabbit Island, Monaco and Akersten Street boat ramps, and by broadcast on local marine radio stations from time to time. Sheet piles will be temporarily installed. These will be marked with yellow retro-reflective tape in most cases, with those defining the available channel(s) for navigation showing port or starboard lateral mark characteristics. Usual hours of work on the project will be 7.00 am to 6.00 pm, but navigation restrictions may be in force at any time. Mariners are required to observe and use only the marked route(s) across the reserved area, and take care that their wake, speed or proximity does not cause risk of harm to contractors (who may be involved in underwater operations), or risk of damage to structures including equipment and pipes. A number of other conditions have been imposed on March Civil Ltd, which may be viewed by contacting either the Harbourmaster on Ph. 03 543 8433/027 246 1904 e-mail: [email protected] or Gary Kennedy of March Civil Ltd during office hours.
