Golden Bay Museum Te Waka Huia o Mohua staff welcomed their distinguished guests, who studied the diorama depicting the Dutch East India Company navigator and explorer Abel Janszoon Tasman and his ships Heemskerck and Zeehaen, alongside Ngati Tumatakokiri in their waka. Museum services manager Karen Johnson and board chair Penny Griffith introduced a special gathering of Tasman devotees: DOC staff Andrew Lamason and Neil Murray, who work in the Abel Tasman National Park and at the Abel Tasman Memorial, Manawhenua ki Mohua kuia Mairangi Reiher, Abel Tasman scholars Robert Jenkin and Dave Horry, board trustees Clive Bird and Pat Ballard and ward councillor Paul Sangster. The focus of attention was the 375th commemoration of the brief but tragic encounter. Rob Zaagman explained that it will be an international event that will mark Tasman’s voyage of discovery and will include New Zealand, Tasmania and Tonga. Cr Sangster spoke of the sister city bonds that have been forged since 1992. “We plan for Golden Bay to host the New Zealand event, and the date is set down for 18 December 2017.” Robert Jenkin appealed for a hui to take place at Onetahua Marae. “We will not have an authoritative iwi perspective until we sit and listen to the Maori speakers at the paepae.” Mr Zaagman expressed his appreciation that everyone had taken time away from their work in conservation, education and their daily business. The ambassador returned to Nelson where he opened the Rembrandt Remastered exhibition at The Nelson Provincial Museum Pupuri Taonga o Te Tai Ao.

Shrieks of laughter could be heard in the building, especially while Wonder Woman served at the counter and kept peace in Takaka township. Captain Awesome stirred up the kids with fabulous stories as well as with building rocket boosters and special gadgets which gave the children “super powers”. “I’ve been beamed into the library and out of the library, while day turned into night,” said mother Sarah Lea, as her children’s imagination took hold.

Submitted 1 Real learning happens for student playwright/director Write a play and direct its world premiere season. Can there be a more authentic learning experience for a senior secondary student? This weekend sees the first performances of Absolution, a play written and directed by Golden Bay High School year 13 student Jonathan Martin. If everything goes according to plan, audiences will experience the challenge and inspiration of live theatre and Jonathan will get a lot of NCEA credits at level three. The fledgling playwright/director says his English teacher, Tasmine Palmer, came up with the idea. “She’s really good at finding the standards that work for individual kids. She’s amazing. I can get credits that feel a lot more tangible than just writing an essay, more credits than I could get by doing other schoolwork. This is an outcome that I can feel proud of rather than just submitting a piece of writing on a subject chosen by someone else. These days I feel that learning should be about actual learning rather than having things drilled into your head and repeating them. Writing and directing a play is teaching me a lot of things that I didn’t know before.” Jonathan happens to be an excellent student in his other subjects. The credits he attains through the writing and directing process are likely to contribute to an impressive NCEA level-three qualification. The directing process has been an all-consuming process, he says. “Because it’s so real and immediate it has sort of taken over my life for a while.” Getting Absolution to the stage has been a major exercise involving many of Jonathan colleagues in Ronnie Short’s Teentheatre. He has also had invaluable assistance from the high school’s technical wizards Liam Potts and Dominic Williams. Elvira van der Waay and Paddy Brennan have also volunteered to assist with costumes and props. “I wouldn’t have been able to do it without them,” says Jonathan. An experienced actor himself, Jonathan credits Ronnie Short with much of his understanding of direction. “It’s about how a director responds to certain situations.

Even if you’ve got your role absolutely right there’s always something you can polish. Build on the actors’ individual strengths.” He is also grateful for having access to the big pool of experienced actors in Golden Bay and credits Ronnie with that too. Absolution is an ideas-driven play, says Jonathan. We want people to think about the human experiences that drive the world – forgiveness, human relationships and so on. We want our audiences to think about the way the world is going today – the way society is going. “To achieve absolution we have to be at peace with ourselves. If we make a mistake we have to be able to forgive ourselves if we are going to progress with our lives. If we live in the past we are going to be stuck in a walking shadow. In my play I deal with the concept of heaven – but heaven is between two people. The truest divinity is that which two people share and the bonds that they share with other people. In my play, absolution is found not by finding peace with God but by finding peace with yourself and with the ones you love.” Absolution opens tonight (Friday 16 October) in the high school hall and continues on Saturday 17 October at 7.30pm.

A whole lotta legendary megabands, like Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple and Genesis were at their creative height. But in a class all of their own were crazy diamonds Pink Floyd. In 1973, the band released Dark Side of the Moon – a seminal work that contains some of the most enduring tracks in rock music. In this classic album, the foursome Dave Gilmour (lead guitar), Rick Wright (keyboards), Nick Mason (drums) and Roger Waters (bass) found an optimal blend and balance between their individual creative talents. DSOTM was promptly followed up with Wish You Were Here (1975) and Animals (1977), but through this sequence Waters increasingly squeezed out the contribution from the other band members – especial Gilmour. Synergy turned to antagonism and, by the time The Wall was released in 1979, the band was on the verge of break-up. For many Floyd fans The Wall is seen as the band’s finest hour, but like the barrier that was constructed on stage during their live gigs, it still divides opinion. Most of the material was penned by Waters and it focuses on his personal obsessions of war, personal loss, and the overbearing state. Whether you see it as a work of genius or pretentious and self-indulgent twaddle, there’s no denying that it’s powerful stuff with themes that continue to resonate strongly. With its underlying narrative and almost operatic style, the album was always a good candidate to be turned into a movie. Earlier attempts met with mixed results. Alan Parker’s 1982 film The Wall is probably best known for its brutal mood, disturbing violence and surreal animated sequences. It was all rather grim. The new version delivers something quite different. In Roger Waters: The Wall, extensive live-stadium rock footage from Waters’ recent world tour is interspersed with a series of short and intimate vignettes documenting his highly personal journey to military graveyards in France and Italy. It’s on these foreign soils, where his grandfather and father were killed in action during the world wars – losses that have haunted him all his life. Film will always struggle to recreate the live-action moment, but the director does a fine job here, creating an immersive concert experience, sensibly making the most of the gargantuan, high-tech stage set and special effects that include life-sized Stuka planes and spectacular pyrotechnics. It’s definitely one for the big screen – don’t even think about getting the same thrill from viewing a downloaded copy on your TV screen, however large. The army of session musos that Waters has assembled on the vast stage is very impressive, and the music really comes alive, but despite paying homage to the band’s original lineup with impressive guitar work and solid vocals, they lack Gilmour’s musicality. One exception is the extended guitar solo on Comfortably Numb; based on Gilmour’s composition, it is particularly stirring, but it’s also a reminder of how much the former lead contributed to Floyd’s music, in spite of what Waters might say. Other tracks stand out; using the wonders of technology and some grainy footage, Waters duets with his younger “f***ed-up” self on Mother, while the up-tempo Run Like Hell re-energises the show just at the right point. The enduring appeal of Floyd’s work can be seen in the millions of downloads from iTunes and Spotify – and it can also be witnessed on film in the many young faces in the stadium’s huge crowd screaming out Waters’ lyrics. With the world full of CCTV cameras, escalating conflict in the Middle East and the Russians flexing their military muscles, it must cheer the veteran rock star to see the next generation keeping his 1970s protest songs alive. After the show’s finale, the film moves to a quiet epilogue entitled The Simple Facts. Here we see Waters and Nick Mason in conversation and answering questions submitted from fans around the world. Although the enquiries elicit some interesting answers, it’s the body language and ways things are said that are most revealing. Despite the superficial camaraderie, there’s a palpable tension between the two former bandmates, and it’s obvious that Waters, looking like a grumpy old Richard Gere, still holds a grudge against Gilmour. Despite their differences, Mason and Waters clearly agree on one thing: There will definitely not be any future Pink Floyd albums or gigs. But with a back catalogue that includes Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here and The Wall, who needs new stuff? Jo Richards roger waTERs: the wall (M). The next screening at The Village Theatre will be held on Saturday 17 October at 8pm. The GB Weekly, Friday 16 OCTOBER 2015 Bay Art and Young @ Art: entry preparation in full swing Sue McKellar Sue McKellar was impressed with the high level of talent and ability of Bay Art entrants when she saw her first exhibition, and decided to enter herself back in 2001. Almost every year since she has entered Bay Art, gaining numerous awards as a result. In 2003, she was chosen for a People’s Choice Award, and was a winner in the 2-D Category in 2004. In 2007 she was placed second in the 2-D Category and awarded a Highly Commended for her 2008 entry. Sue has been an exhibiting artist since she was 15 years old. Inside her working studio on a quiet country road, Sue’s striking landscapes and subjects on canvas offer a unique perspective of the natural world. Originally from England, Sue studied art in Croydon, where one of her teachers had her focus on the absolute detail of what she was drawing. Today she is thankful for that mastery which allows her to “see”, to become engrossed in her subject and its depiction. “I have to have such focus of attention. That’s what I like about it. I get in the zone and magic happens.” Sue studied Fine Art full time for six years and spent a year doing postgraduate teacher training. Painting in acrylic, oils, mixed media, Sue describes the inspiration and intention behind her paintings. “I look at natural patterns in nature and represent them so the viewer notices them differently when they see them. I often look at the markings in the soil left after logging or storms or farming, and I see what I call ‘the secret writing’ - the fractal markings of nature. “I’m very interested in the fractal patterns of the rocks and the marks that I can use to describe the energy of the land. I enjoy the challenge of creating a visual language that can both describe the form and the energies underlying the form.” As well as working in her studio she enjoys the challenge of working from life – en plein air. At present she is working on, and hoping to enter, a local landscape drawing for this year’s Bay Art exhibition. Moana Lee Moana Lee’s 3D entry, October Song, won first prize in Bay Art in 2012. The same year, her Romance of Birds was a prominent feature at the Takaka Memorial Library, etching in people’s minds the theme of native birds and their preservation. It’s a key signature of this multimedia artist who has won multiple awards at Bay Art in recent years. Since 1991, Moana has been an exhibiting artist, though most prolifically in the last five years. Bay Art gives her the focus to produce work by meeting its deadline. “Historically, I found them stressful; now I enjoy the buzz of creativity they ignite and the new works they inspire.” It’s her concern for the environment that inspires Moana to create with other people’s cast-offs. “I’m a staunch believer in organics, ‘true’ biodegradable/compostable products and Sue works on a landscape drawing (not her entry for this year’s Bay Art). Photo: Rae McDowell. the upcycling of materials in general, as opposed to buying brand new things.” Her concern for the plight of nature in the face of progress and industrialisation propels her to make wearable or functional art, as opposed to art for art’s sake, she says. “Parallel to these ethics I like word play and symbolism to convey a voice for nature.” In Bay Art 2013 she was awarded a Highly Commended for Chick Stack. The following year, Moana won 3D First and the Supreme Award with Time Isn’t Holding Up, Time Is An Asterisk, and the 3D Minature Second prize with Safe As Houses. For this year’s exhibition she is drawing on themes from her 2014 piece, those being both the loss of her father and the “humbling” experience of receiving the Supreme Award, which was dedicated to him. She is currently inspired and haunted by a documentary by Chris Jordan’s Midway - A Love Story For Our Time From The Heart Of The Pacific. The film documents the plight of baby albatrosses living on one of the most remote marine sancturaries on Earth, and whose parents are feeding them millions of tons of plastic, mistaken for food, gathered from the Pacific Ocean.

Susan Snelgrove Purple peaches Re Marcus Benecke’s letter (GBW 25/9), about the peach known as Black Boy; I feel he has done an excellent summing up on how insiduously terms continue in usage without consideration of the actual meaning. I’d been one of those who had always used the term with never a thought of the connotations, having copied my parents. It was the unquestioned name of that fruit at the time. I’m sure they also accepted the term in the same way that I did. However, some years ago I attended a Zero Waste conference and I exclaimed delightedly on seeing said peaches on offer at morning tea. From behind me came a mellifluous male correction, sotto voce, “Black PRINCE peaches”. Although I had no contact with the speaker other than that, it certainly set me thinking and I realised a better name for me to use would be purple peaches which takes away the inadvertent possibility of me lapsing again. What had particularly impressed me was the gentle tone of the comment which suggested to me a good sense of tolerant humour. So from then on it’s been purple peaches for me, a very tasty and healthy treat.

Whether any novelty dances, such as those advertised for the Grand Opening back in 1935, will grace the hall’s perfect dance floor is unclear, but one thing’s for certain: the good folk of the community will be making their own entertainment, just as they did all those years ago. And in true rural tradition, Saturday’s event will be a BYO bash – guests are asked to bring a supper plate and drinks and, if they are keen, a song, skit or story to share. As well as reminiscing about the past, there will Pakawau Memorial Hall will celebrate its 80th birthday this weekend.

The planned repaint is the latest job in a long list and it’s definitely worth having,” says Henk. That’s good news for one of the last surviving guests from of refurbishments and improvements carried out since the the Grand Opening of the “Pakawau New Hall”. Kath Wigzell place was first built. Back then, there were few creature comforts in what was was 14 years old when she attended the historic dance on a pretty basic “50ft by 30ft” space. There were no men’s Friday 11 October 1935. “I remember vividly – the hall was very well decorated toilets, and water for a cuppa was boiled outside in a large, with streamers all around and there was no electricity, so wood-fired copper. But it wasn’t all bad. Until electricity was connected in lanterns were hung on a rope.” It was quite a formal do, says 1951, dancing couples could bathe in the romantic, soft glow Kath. “People were very smart and the women sat around the from an array of lanterns. These days, efficient fluorescent room while men stood at the door.” The more reticent males tubes flood the hall and its occupants with a brighter, although had to leave the hall if they wanted some Dutch courage. somewhat less flattering, light. Other mod cons, added over “There was no drinking in the hall then, but they had their the years when the funds allowed, include a proper kitchen, own tipple outside.” When couples did take to the floor it was strictly ballroom, according to Kath, who was a keen decent toilets, a library and access ramps. In addition to the hall’s numerous upgrades, much time young dancer at the time. “There was great dancing – foxtrots, and money has been spent on keeping the old girl shipshape. waltzes, quicksteps - not like it is these days.” That inaugural event was the first of many to be woven into She was reroofed in 1994 and repiled in 2000, but apart from the new hat and boots, the rest of her fabric is mainly the hall’s growing history. Some, like the farewell dances for 1930s original, including the rimu framing and matai floor, departing WWII troops and the funerals of local characters, the timber for both donated by the Rhodes family and milled were obviously sad occasions. But the hall has seen far more happy times, including welcome-home parties, weddings, by the Donelly brothers. Like many of the Bay’s village venues, Pakawau Hall was dances, school concerts and 21st birthdays. Despite tremendous social changes, improvements in built, and is looked after, by members of the community. It was local families who raised the £400 to cover initial transport and advanced technology in 21st century rural life, construction costs and it was local tradesman Roy Duncan it’s clear the hall remains relevant and important. The space who oversaw the build on land donated by Charlie Flowers. continues to be well used by local clubs and societies. “It has its regulars - Rural Women, cards night and yoga,” Most of the hard graft was pitched in by Pakawau settlers - two of whom, Len Riley and Gerald Filluel, joined the committee says Henk. It also doubles as an ad hoc medical clinic, where the community can get flu jabs, and is frequently the venue in 1934 and served for 45 years and 31 years respectively. Over the decades, other selfless individuals have devoted of choice for local public meetings. This Saturday’s birthday party is an occasion for the countless time and energy to help keep this heart of the community beating. Charlie’s granddaughter, Edna Campbell- community to celebrate the wooden stalwart’s “oak” Heath, served on the committee for 42 years (1970-2013) anniversary, acknowledge personal contributions made while the recently departed John Davis racked up a total of 50 over the last 80 years and wish the old girl all the best for years (1954-1984; 1994-2014).

Concept to Completion. Two lucky people will soon have spectacular pieces of handcraft in their homes. The annual Golden Bay Patchwork and Quilters Guild quilt raffle will be drawn on 29 October. The prizes this year, a quilt for first and a table runner for second, have been given the title Heritage Bouquet and they are undoubtedly impressive collaborations. “About 20 quilters worked on it,” explains Guild spokesperson Liza Eastman. “We all cut out the flowers from various fabrics donated by guild members, then put all the flowers together and grabbed handfuls to incorporate into our squares. Quite a few people had pieces of lace - doilies, crocheted lace and so on, so they have been incorporated into the quilt and the runner.” The Heritage Bouquet pieces are collage quilts, employing the appliqué technique onto a silk background. The raffle prizes will be on display in Artisans in Takaka until they go on display at the Guild’s annual quilt display in the Collingwood Memorial Hall at Labour Weekend. Tickets in the raffle are $2 and the proceeds this year will go to the Golden Bay Museum. Neil Wilson golden bay’s news in brief The great canned sweet deal The new centre will bring together sports across codes, social and leisure groups as well as search and rescue. The combined user groups have raised $100,000 as seeding funds and this has been matched by a donation from the Rata Foundation (formerly Canterbury Community Trust). GBRPP chairperson Dean Lund stated, “This is absolutely fantastic news and means this project is really happening. Construction will commence in February 2016 and be completed by the end of October. I’m totally convinced that we will get everything, and possibly more, in the facility than has been planned over the past five years”.

Submitted Design and build team appointed Tasman District Council has appointed the design and build team for the Golden Bay Recreation Park Project (GBRPP) at Recreation Park. Gibbons Construction collaboration with Specialised Structures and Cluster Construction group, Redbox Architects and Aurecon NZ Ltd was the successful submission. Initial expressions of interest were received from six companies from which four were shortlisted. Three tenders were received and evaluated in-depth by the project team. The community development committee considered the recommendation and the decision was confirmed by the council tender panel. Gibbons Construction stated, “We aim to exceed the requirements for a functional, well-designed recreational facility.” The GB Weekly, Friday 16 OCTOBER 2015 The Telegraph Hotel is celebrating its centenary in November, and licensee Michael Delhanty is inviting everyone to get involved. Saturday 7 November is the main day of celebration, and Michael is planning activities for all ages from noon onwards. “The celebrations will start with a market day in the car park,” says Michael. “I’m looking for expressions of interest from stallholders. There’s no charge; everything the stall makes will go to the stallholder. I’d really like it if there were lots of things for children to do. There’s room for all kinds of stalls – fundraisers, produce sales, food, games and activities. Maybe some things with a bit of a historical flavour, like a coconut shy or apple-bobbing. Buskers are welcome too. It would be great to see lots of little tents and lots of kids having fun.” Michael has planned activities for older people later in the day. As an added attraction, he will be setting up an archive of material relating to the historic hotel. “I’m hoping people will bring in things that relate to the Tele in any way at all. It might be photos of 21st birthdays or wedding receptions held here back in the day, or payslips, trophies, bits of clothing - anything at all. It doesn’t have to be 100 years old, either – the archive is all about the long history of the Tele and things from more recent decades will be welcomed. I’ll reproduce everything I can so the owners can keep the originals.” Anyone with historical memorabilia or anyone interested in having a stall on 7 November should contact Michael at the Telegraph Hotel on 525 9445. The GB Weekly will print details of the rest of the birthday celebration activities in an upcoming issue.

TigerTurf courts bring new bounce to tennis season A hot-weather start to the Golden Bay Tennis Club season attracted just an average turnout for opening day last Sunday. The club’s two new TigerTurf courts revealed just how well balls bounce on the green-and-orange surface. Children aged five and under were the first to try their hands on the rackets and were assisted by club captain Wayne Rothwell. He said that a new batch of juniors “did really well” and brings eight new players to the club, which currently has 90 children and adult members. Wayne was also wearing his latest cap as new club president. Dave Lewis has stepped down from the president’s role after seven years. For Wayne, taking on two roles might be like a single player in a doubles match. “A lot of sports are finding it hard to get people to step up. It’s really for the kids – their future in the sport,” he says. Tracy Holland takes on the job of secretary this season. Tracy grew up playing tennis in the Bay and remembers matches between Pohara and Collingwood on Saturdays. “Our membership has dwindled over the years. It would be nice to keep the numbers up. We can do interclub over the hill and will hopefully get Saturday competitions going for kids.” Mixed doubles for adults is on Tuesday evenings. Dave Lewis is offering skills and games for 5-10 year olds on Mondays (for around 10 children) from 3.45-4.45pm. For anyone considering membership, sign-up is open until the end of October, with Tennis Open Day finishes with a game of doubles. Back: Malcom McKellar and Wayne Rothwell.
