PLANITHERM®XNLow-e double glazing So thermally efficient, it’s like double double glazing.
There’s double glazing. And then there’s double glazing with Viridian’s premiumPlanitherm®XN glass.
It’s a low-e glass with an invisible coating that reflects heat back into the roomrather than letting it escape outside.
Planitherm®XN reduces heat loss by up to 59% compared to ordinary doubleglazing, so you’ll feel cosier and warmer on the coldest winter night.
So don’t think twice. Choose Viridian’s Planitherm®XN glass for your retrofit ornew double and triple glazed windows.

Fresh face at the food bankTASHA LEOV

A fresh face will take over the roleof street appeal team co-ordinatorfor the Marlborough Food Bankthis year.
After four years of service, vol-unteer co-ordinators Bruce andPetrea Barker are leaving to moveback home to Christchurch.
‘‘It’s time now that we movecloser to family and that’s whatwe’re doing in a fortnight’s timeto Christchurch, we’re movinghome,’’ Petrea says.
The two are succeeded by JoLane, a mother-of-five who haslived in Marlborough for 19 years.
Most recently she has beenvolunteering as a hospitalchaplain.
‘‘It will be a great challengeand great opportunity to serveback into the community,’’ Josays.
‘‘Most jobs and roles I’ve beenin have been doing just thatbecause that’s what I think we’recalled to do.’’
She has been involved in co-ordinating roles, previously work-ing for the Ford Mondeo racingteam in the United Kingdom andthe Blenheim Nativity Church.
When Bruce and Petrea startedhelping the region in 2012 theysay they were ‘‘thrown into thedeep end’’.
‘‘It’s been a challenge from thestart but the community in Blen-heim, and Marlborough as awhole, is so incredibly generousand so willing to get behind acause that they see as doinggood,’’ Bruce says.
‘‘Hopefully only temporarilyfor the people who are getting thepackages but nonetheless import-
ant to those people, getting themback on their feet so they cancarry on without our assistance.
‘‘Each year we are amazed atthe generosity, it’s just incred-ible,’’ he says.
The couple say they will missworking for the food bank but areready to ‘‘hand the reins over’’.
‘‘Regardless of us going back toChristchurch, we’ve done the fouryears now and it’s time for some-
body else to take a fresh look atand do something different withit.’’
The Marlborough Food Bankstreet appeal is held annually atthe end of the year and sees
around 200 volunteers from theregion roam the streets with helpfrom rural firefighters.
They collect any non-perishable goods that people arewilling to donate.

YOUR PAPER, YOUR PLACE
I love a good rugby game, andthere is something special aboutseeing one live.
Unfortunately I have not hadmany opportunities to go to them,but when I do it is awesome.
There is no denying mysupport for my belovedSpringboks, even if I they are notso mighty at the moment.
I also support a South AfricanSuper Rugby team from backhome, but here in New Zealandthe Tasman Makos are myfavourite.
I’ve seen them play live a fewtimes and the game is alwayshugely entertaining. We only get acouple of their home games inBlenheim, with the last for theseason on tomorrow night atLansdowne Park.
The clash with CountiesManukau is a must win affair andthe team management believethat if Marlborough supportersturn out in their droves a win willbe that much more likely.
So, let’s show our support. Finsup!

Jackie Browning had just turned19-years-old when, as a freshlygraduated kindergarten teacher,she found herself alone in chargeof a class of 36 children.
It was 1966 and there was nosuch thing as relieving teachers.
‘‘So if one was off sick, it wasjust me and 36 children. If I couldget a mum to help, I had a mum,’’remembers Jackie.
‘‘That would never happen
today of course.’’ Alone, Jackiewould read stories or lead music,with her at the piano. ‘‘Back thenthey didn’t have cassette playersor even record players.
‘‘They just had a piano. Youwere expected to play a musicalinstrument and I didn’t like violinso I taught myself the piano.’’
Fifty years after earning herkindergarten teaching diploma inChristchurch, Jackie is retiringfrom her role at Witherlea Kin-dergarten, where she taught for 18
years. When she graduated,parents’ only early childhood edu-cation options were kindergartenfor children over 3-years-old, andPlaycentre.
Kindergarten teachers spentWednesday afternoons doinghome visits for prospectivepupils. ‘‘We had lots of lovelyafternoon teas.’’
Jackie enjoyed teaching, butbeing so young, didn’t feel quali-fied to tell parents ‘‘what to do’’.
She moved to Australia where
she worked in a personnel officeand had her three children.
She returned to New Zealandin 1989 and took up a teacher aidrole at the newly opened RenwickKindergarten.
Jackie worked as a reliefteacher in kindergartens aroundMarlborough, including themobile kindergarten, beforestarting at Witherlea in 1998.
Some children remain in hermemory, like the little boy whomemorised the phonetic alphabet,
so Jackie did too. And the twoFrench students for whom Jackiewrote learning stories in herschoolgirl French.
Now, she is teaching the chil-dren of former students andalthough so much has changedsince 1966, some things never will.
‘‘My favourite things … talkingto them, reading them stories,because you can put a lot into astory, you can put someexpression and some interest intoa story.’’

Students pick food for thoughtTASH LEOV

completing the Food for Thought programme. PHOTO: TASHA LEOV/FAIRFAX NZ
Eating pumpkin, carrot and kiwi-fruit skins is good for your body,two Riverlands School classeslearned this term.
Under teachers Emily Ander-son and Julie McDonald, the twoclasses have been studying whatnutritional value means, whatfoods are good for you and whythey are good to eat.
Year 6 and 7 students, HoneyMarzola, Tegan Walker andAraiara Bristowe say they havestarted looking at nutritionalinformation on food packets andeducating their families on whatit means to be healthy.
‘‘If you just eat biscuits orchips for lunch you are not goingto improve your health and whenyou’re older you’re going to thinkback and just wonder why youdidn’t try harder,’’ Honey says.
‘‘Everything is healthy for youif have the right amount, if youhave too much of it, it’s not as
good but if you have a smallamount then it’s actually quitehealthy for you because you needsugar to survive.’’
Year 4 students Jed Corneliusand Paige Davis say they thinkit’s a good idea for other children
their age to learn about foodnutrition.
The fresh food programme iscalled Food for Thought andteachers Emily Anderson andJulie McDonald say it has beenwell received by the children.
‘‘There’s a need from what wesee with the children in what theybring for lunch that we need toeducate them and also parentswith what healthy choices are atthe supermarket.
‘‘We’re trying to encourage lesspackaged food,’’ she says.
‘‘They’re loving it, they’re allinto it.’’
Julie says she is surprised thatshe learnt a lot too.
The programme has six stepsin educating the children includ-ing a visit from a nutritionist, avisit to the supermarket and asponsored healthy lunch toconclude.
‘‘They loved the supermarketvisit.
‘‘They were told they were fooddetectives and they had to findthings in the supermarket toreplace what they normally wouldeat with things that had less than10 grams of sugar, 10 grams of fatand more than five grams offibre,’’ Emily says.

A business team of three siblingsin Marlborough has developed anatural skin care range that hasbeen picked up by a Picton phar-macy.
Hallie, Sean and Tahlia Gra-ham from Queen Charlotte Col-lege, in Picton, use their kitchenat home to create their SmotherMe products.
The team create moisturiser,lip balm and perfume oils whichthey sold at the Nelson Saturdaymarket.
They were the only high schoolstudents at the market represen-ting Marlborough along with 11other Nelson school businesses.
‘‘We were pleased with how themarket went, we sold some of ourproducts and people loved thesmell and the feel of the product,’’Tahlia said.
Smother Me was created aspart of the Lion FoundationYoung Enterprise Scheme whichteaches students how to make areal business from scratch andsets them up with a business bankaccount and access to Xeroaccounting software.
Tahlia says they wanted to cre-ate a product that was simple tounderstand while they learnt theins and outs of a real business.
‘‘It was something different totry so we decided to see how itwould go, we looked at whatpeople liked, we wanted to makesomething simple that we couldunderstand.’’
She says the Young EnterpriseScheme is a good thing for highschool students to get into.
‘‘I would definitely recommend
the Young Enterprise Schemeespecially if you’re not too surewhat you want to do after school,it gives you really valuable skillsthat you can use like customer
service or financing.’’As for the name, Tahlia says
Smother Me ‘‘came out of theblue’’ when the team werebrainstorming ideas.
‘‘I kind of came up with‘smother me with oils’ because allof our products are made with oiland we liked it so we kept with it.’’
The students have been work-
ing on their business since Febru-ary and are supported by aregional co-ordinator, a businessmentor and their local businesscommunity.
Big home game for MakosSVEN HERSELMAN

The Tasman Makos Marlboroughfans will get their last chance tosee the team in action in Blen-heim when they take on CountiesManukau tomorrow night.
The Lansdowne Park game isset to kick-off at 7.30pm, with theMakos keen to get one over theteam which denied them a homesemi-final last year when theywere beaten 42-33 at Pukekohe’sECOLight Stadium.
The loss may have been almost
exactly one year ago, but it willnot soon be forgotten by the team.
Tasman Rugby chief executiveTony Lewis says while they don’tsee it as a grudge match it is vitalthey pick up a win.
‘‘It’s important to get a top fourfinish. It’s a must win game forboth teams.’’
The Makos are coming off awin against Hawke’s Bay on theweekend and will have a shortturn around for the Countiesgame. However, Tony believes ifMarlborough rugby fans turn out
in force it will give the team theedge they need.
‘‘If we have 4000 or 5000screaming and shouting fans thatwould be outstanding. Blenheimare rugby people who always sup-port us really well.’’
‘‘When we get a big crowd ofBlenheim fans turn out it alwaysbrings us home.’’
As with all Makos games chil-dren under 12-years-old,accompanied by an adult, will getin for free.

Ashley’s love of Lego never gets old
Ashley Toms with his Lego models, ready for display at the upcoming Nelson Marlborough Truck and Modelers Club’s
annual show. PHOTO: JEFFREY KITT/FAIRFAX NZ
MAIKE VAN DER HEIDE It took just under 10hours to build in sixsessions.
Ashley Toms was just a schoolboywhen a classmate received a Legotruck set for Christmas, whichcaught Ashley’s eye.
He never forgot it and 20 yearslater, after finding it again onTrade Me, the 954-piece set isfinally his.
Once assembled it will be ondisplay at the Nelson Marlbor-ough Truck and Modelers Club’sannual show on Saturday.
‘‘It’s quite an old-school model,quite square and blocky becausethat’s how they did it in the 1980sand 90s,’’ Ashley says.
‘‘I quite enjoy those old onesmore than the new ones, nowthey’re all rounded edges andsoftened.’’
Ashley has been collecting andconstructing Lego for about 23years and among his collectionare model vintage cars, cranes,space ships, a fire station andeven a model of the Sydney OperaHouse and London’s TowerBridge.
Ashley’s latest Lego project,which will also be at the show, is aMercedes Benz Arocs 3245 truckwith crane, which consists ofnearly 2800 pieces.
Some of its features would not
sound out of place on a real truck,with things such as pneumaticsystem twin axle steering, doubledifferential drive and fully inde-
pendent suspension, while thedriver’s cab tilts to reveal adetailed six-cylinder engine withmoving pistons.
It took just under 10 hours tobuild in six sessions and ‘‘it wasfun, not challenging’’, says Ash-ley. ‘‘It’s complete, that’s the main
thing.’’ Ashley has attended aboutfive shows for the model club, andsays his Lego collection is a ‘‘natu-ral attraction for people to comeand have a look; big kids and littlekids’’.
This year he will be showing anumber of models including theold truck, the new Mercedes, arecently built 179-piece hydro-plane racer, a small acrobaticsplane and the fire station andLondon Tower Bridge.
Other models on show willinclude a range of styles andmaterials, such as die-cast, oftanks, fire engines, race cars, heli-copter and planes.
Ashley also intends to take hisLego to the first top of the southLego show in Nelson inNovember.
The Nelson MarlboroughTruck and Modelers Club show ison Saturday from 10am to 3pm atthe Redwoodtown Hall.
Entry is a gold coin donationand there will be a raffle withprizes drawn throughout theshow.

Keen for a runin the park?
While the wine andseafood are secondto none it's thepeople that makeme love this town.
LOOK WHO’STALKING
Parkrun has been going inBlenheim for a couple monthsnow. Tell us what it is aboutand how it got started?
Parkrun is a free, timed 5kilometre run suitable forrunners and walkers of allabilities. We’ve had people run itin under 17 minutes and peoplewho walk it in an hour. Mum’scan bring their babies in a strollerand some bring their dogs. It gotstarted in 2004 with 13 runnersand a park in the UnitedKingdom, now there are over halfa million runners across 14different countries.
Blenheim Parkrun started upon the July 9 and we have had 119different runners and walkers sofar.
What sets Parkrun apartfrom other running events andwhat is its aim?
It’s 100 per cent free thanks toour principal sponsor NewZealand Home Loans. It’s foreverybody and while there willalways be friendly competitionbetween friends it’s not aboutracing, it’s about running.
What made you decide tostart it up?
We were approached by OliverCarne who is from the UK andrecently moved to Blenheim. Hemissed the event so when hefound out New Zealand HomeLoans were sponsoring Parkrunin other towns he came to theBlenheim branch and asked meand Phil Muir, the businessowner, if we’d be interested insetting up a Parkrun course herein Blenheim.
We thought it would be sobeneficial for the community sowe were happy to volunteer our
resources and time on a Saturdaymorning for such a great event.
What kind of feedback haveyou had?
So far the feedback has been allpositive with people even tryingto donate to it because they wantit to continue.
Are you into your runningmuch and what do you enjoyabout it?
I’ve always been into healthand fitness, but the part I enjoymost about it is giving back to thecommunity even if it meansgetting up bright and early to setup the course on a Saturdaymorning.
Where are you fromoriginally and what broughtyou to Marlborough?
I grew up on the Kapiti coastbut gran lived down theMarlborough Sounds so everyschool holiday (both my parentswere teachers) we would go toRuakaka Bay to visit her.
I came to Blenheim in 2014because my wife got offered a jobwith Bay Audiology and when Ilooked up the town I thought itwould be a great place to work,live, play and start a family oneday.
What do you enjoy mostabout the region?
While the wine and seafood aresecond to none it’s the people thatmake me love this town. That andno traffic lights.
If you could change onething about Marlborough whatwould it be?
An absolute pipe dream, but I’dlove to see the All Blacks playhere one year.
Aside from that I wouldn’twant to change the town, it’s agreat place to live and it will keepbeing a great place to live.
Any words of wisdom for thereaders?
Don’t raise your voice,improve your argument.

TASHA LEOV ‘‘It's very rewarding,the kids and thestaff are all veryappreciative.’’Dave Oliver, BlenheimMenz Shedchairman
A new playhouse has beenincluded in the furniture of theKoru Room at Blenheim Schoolthanks to the Menz Shed.
School principal Denyse Healysays the 5-year-olds were rapt toreceive it.
‘‘We really appreciate the sup-port that the Menz Shed has givenus throughout the year, they havehelped us with a woodwork tableand now this amazing doll houseand the kids just love using theseas part of their developmentallearning programme.’’
Blenheim Menz Shed chair-man Dave Oliver says it took a‘‘week’s worth of labour to build’’and was made without a properplan.
‘‘It’s very rewarding, the kidsand the staff are all very appreci-ative. I can’t remember who but it
was someone’s idea, the projectmanager just built what hewanted, it was really brilliant.’’
Dave says they dropped off thelittle house after school hourswhich he wished could have beenduring the day.
‘‘It was fun to make, althoughwe didn’t get to see their faceswhen they saw it for the first time,I’m sure they would have lit up.’’
He says the shed has 35 guyswho drop in, 20 of those are activemembers.
‘‘We’re really involved in thecommunity and all the guys arehard workers, I would like to see abit more downtime actually.’’
As well as the new playhouse agroup of boys from the school arein the process of making LEDlight tiles to be fitted to the out-side classroom steps.
Ben Snalam from MarlboroughLines is mentoring the children
and has been working with themone-on-one, Denyse says.
The students started workingon the lights as a science fair proj-ect but after running out of time,they are making prototypes forthe school. They will have squaretiles attached to the steps whichwill light up when stood on.
Denyse says the tiles willpromote active learning.

The children showed off arange of clothing supplied by thePicton and Blenheim Vinnies opshops at the Mini VinniesFashion Parade on Thursday lastweek.
Organiser Leanne Cooper saysaround 50 people turned out toenjoy the evening of op shop highfashion, which provided for someentertaining moments.
‘‘Mini Vinnies is the children’s
branch of St Vincent de Paul.Members of St Vincent de PaulPicton conference work with thestudents, regularly focussing onprojects aimed at raising theirawareness as young Christians ofthe importance of social justice,both locally and abroad.
‘‘This year the theme has beenwater.’’
The children learned abouthow millions of people die fromunclean water.
They decided to help familiesin Fiji affected by Cyclone Win-ston and raised just under $300,
almost enough for three installedwater filters, Leanne says.
‘‘A great effort given there areonly 11 students on the school roll.
‘‘The children chose Fiji in par-ticular because they have alreadysent Christmas boxes to under-privileged children in the remotecommunities there for the pastthree years.
‘‘The feedback from those whoattended the fashion parade hasbeen fantastic and it is likely tonow become an annual event onthe schools’s calendar,’’ Leannesays.

Coping with acash surplus
Congratulations, it’s early onset post-mortgage tension. PHOTO: 123RF
GOLDEN RULES❚ Do your planning❚ Do your learning❚ Be ready to copewithmorefinancial freedom

MONEY MATTERS
‘‘When there issuddenly a surplusof money, suddenlyyou have to choosewhat to do with it.That’s scary.’’
It’s comforting when someoneelse tells you what to do with yourmoney.
That’s why mortgages can besuch comfortable companions inpeople’s lives.
But there comes a time inevery homeowner’s life whenPMT may strike.
That’s ‘‘post mortgagetension’’, a form of stress broughton by suddenly having to makedecisions about what to do withthe disposable income yousuddenly have available.
There’s a similar conditionwhich may strike KiwiSaverswhen they attain the age 65.
It’s called OCD. That’s‘‘Options Confusion Dysfunction’’characterised by similar feelingsof panic about where to investtheir newly-available funds.
Clearly, neither PMT and OCDare real medical syndromes.
But I think my made-upmaladies capture real feelings ofstress that can arise when bigmoney choices have to be made.
I’m going to focus on PMT.
When there is suddenly asurplus of money, suddenly youhave to choose what to do with it.That’s scary.
When a frustrated EU decidedto find out about why people makesuch bad investment decisions, itspent a large quantity of eurosproducing a report calledConsumer Decision-Making inRetail Investment Services: ABehavioural EconomicsPerspective.
It could have been called ‘‘Whypeople make bad investmentdecisions’’.
The two biggest issues itidentifies is fear of monetary loss,and ignorance.
Sufferers from PMT need to getover the fear, and the ignorance.
A short cut is to pay someoneelse to help, namely an authorisedfinancial adviser.
They will help you set: a) yourgoals, and b) the strategy forachieving them, including howmuch you need to be saving andinto what.
If you want to be self-led, youstill need to work out a) and b).
This includes your ‘‘assetallocation’’ namely how much ofyour money you want in cash,bonds, shares and property,including how in New Zealandassets, and how much in overseasassets.
You’re not really in newterritory.
Before the mortgage was gone,you were investing in a mix ofcash, shares, bonds and property,and perhaps in your ownbusiness.
You were already saving intoKiwiSaver and the bank, and mayhave had an investment propertyor two, and a few directinvestments like electricity andAMP shares picked up along theway.
Now is the time to direct eachmonth’s surplus income into theassets that give you the
diversification you want, and thebest long-term risk-return youcan manage.
You’ll also want to thinkcarefully about how you save it.KiwiSaver funds provide instantdiversification, but do you reallywant to be locking your moneyaway even more money until theage of 65?
The best way to avoid eitherPMT, or OCD, is to becomefinancially literate and capablenow, and developing your a) andyour b), so when the headymoment comes, you know whatyou’re going to do.

Driving a convertible Mustang around Hawaii.
History of the Vehicle:
It’s now 50 Years old. I have had it for 9 months. Before that
it was in Auckland for 2 years, and, before that it spent
20 years in a shed in Winton . Previous to that I don’t have

Shining cuckoos should be returning fromtheir summer holiday in the Pacific, writesDepartment of Conservation communityranger Wendy Sullivan.
Shining cuckoos return to Marlborough during the spring to lay their eggs in the nests of warblers, who then raise the
intruder chick. PHOTO: SUPPLIED
Pretty impostoris back in town
The poor warblersare dedicatedparents though, andwill feed theimpostor chick forfour weeks.
The herald of spring, the shiningcuckoo or pipiwharauroa is back.
This bird is one you rarely seebut often hear. Their distinctivecall is a bit like a dog whistle, ordescribed more formally as, ‘‘aloud upwardly-slurred whistlerepeated several times; thesequence usually ends with adownwardly-slurred whistle’’.
They a have a very enviablelife. Every autumn they fly off toNew Guinea and Solomon Islandsto spend the winter in the sun.
In late September they returnto breed, but not in the normalway. Like other cuckoos theshining cuckoos are broodparasites, laying single eggs innests of grey warblers.
That is the end of the cuckoosparental investment, and it goeson to have a relaxing summerfeeding up before the big 4600kilometre flight back to thePacific Islands at end of autumn.
Back in the warbler nest thecuckoo egg sticks out like a sorethumb, being bigger and acompletely different colour to its
tiny nest mates so there is nosubterfuge involved.
However, for some reason thewarbler accepts this addition toits family.
When the cuckoo chickhatches it quickly eliminates itscompetition for food by pushingthe warbler eggs or chicks out ofthe nest.
It is probably just as well, asthe shining cuckoo chick takes upall of its tiny foster parents’attention and energy, and beingmuch larger, requires a constantdelivery of spiders and insects.
The poor warblers arededicated parents though, andwill feed the impostor chick forfour weeks before it flies off to
enjoy its first winter in thePacific.
If you are lucky enough to seeone, you will find the shiningcuckoo is a very attractive bird.
It has an iridescent green backand wings and a black and whitestriped breast.
They are not rare, and arefound in most bush habitats
around New Zealand.Despite their sneaky and
bullying survival tactics, that firstcuckoo call of spring always feelspretty special.

No, not really. When I firststarted playing it was just for funbut now I just really like playingfor Tasman, it’s great fun.
What’s it like playingalongside your brother?
We have always played footytogether since our MarlboroughBoys’ College days, so it’s alwaysbeen the norm I suppose.
How did you get into thegame in the first place?
Back when I was 4-years-oldthe old man was playing and hestarted coaching my olderbrother’s team so I tagged along.
