WINTER WARM: Te Wharau School students are cosy in much-welcomed jackets accessed through the KidsCan scheme. Principal Steve Berezowski says a year ago there were as many as 120 kids away and one of the reasons was because of the cold. This year there were notably less and he put that down to the jackets and free school lunches. Proudly wearing their jackets are, back row (from left): Cleo Brenchley, Kylie Brightwell, Lillian Brunt and Cordai Wiperi.

STUDENTS from schools around Tairawhiti donned costumes and busted out the marimbas for a special performance of the story of Whirikoka. Around 300 people turned up at Lawson Field Theatre to support the Aurora students and learn about Tairawhiti history. Makaraka School teacher Michelle Hall has been the drama specialist for Aurora for the last three years and was impressed with this year’s students. Aurora is a specialist education provider that works with talented students from 17 primary schools in the Tairawhiti region. “They’ve done a really good job. I’m really impressed with all of them,” Mrs Hall said. The students broke into groups and wrote sections of the script in two days, then Mrs Hall joined the sections together. After less than a week of rehearsals, the students brought the story to the stage. Mrs Hall said the students were constantly giving her ideas — where they could stand, move and when the music should play. “They drive the learning rather than me saying, ‘this is my idea and you’re going to do what I say.’ If I just gave them a script that I’d purchased from somewhere, I don’t think they would be able to put this together.” The story of Whirikoka came from kaumatua Charlie Pera, who gifted it to Te Runanga o Turanganui a Kiwa, the organisation that represents the interest of Rongowhakata, Ngai Tamanuhiri and Te Aitanga a Mahaki. Runanga education manager Albie Gibson said it was a legend for future generations to learn from.

AUCKLAND — The number of people studying nursing hit a near-decade low last year, prompting calls for the Government to get serious about health. It comes at a time when the industry says having locally-trained nurses is more important than ever, as Covid-19 prevents overseas workers from entering the country. Newstalk ZB has revealed exclusive Infometrics analysis which shows the intake of those predominantly studying nursing has stagnated, with the New Zealand Nurses Organisation (NZNO) saying it’s time for action from the top. Health Minister Andrew Little admitted it had been difficult to put a proper plan in place but said the new health agency Health NZ would help address the issue. Student nurses have told NZME they believe the low rates of people studying is partly due to understaffing and poor pay that leads to burnout. NZNO acting professional services manager Kate Weston said she was concerned that mounting pressure on the sector could be keeping people away from entering the profession. “We’re in a crisis situation. We have a real NEED TO ‘REVERSE TREND’: The health industry problem, we have high vacancies, and aren’t able to says having locally-trained nurses is more important backfill those,” she said. than ever.

BRISBANE — The Warriors have made yet another move on the NRL’s player carousel, signing controversial prop Matt Lodge from the Brisbane Broncos with immediate effect. The 26-year-old joins the Warriors on a two-and-a-half-year deal, after having been linked with a move to the club at different times over the past couple of seasons. The Broncos will reportedly contribute close to $1 million of his wage over the next two and half seasons, a deal that includes a player option in 2023. “Matt will add more experience and real size to further boost our front-row resources,” Warriors head coach Nathan Brown said. “We like what he has to offer us as a big body in the middle of the park with his ability to play big minutes and his impressive work rate. He’ll be a great addition to our squad.” After injury limited him to just six appearances last year, Lodge, whose partner is the daughter of Warriors recruitment manager Peter O’Sullivan, has played 12 games this year and has been a strong player in a dismal season for the Brisbane club, averaging 12 runs, 129 metres and 25 tackles a game.
