Barb is no stranger to the Guardian having previ- ously been a member of the accounts team. She brings with her a strong accounting and man- agement background, working primarily in the Wai- kato where she managed an accounting firm with a staff of 30. “I’m an absolute processes and numbers person and I’ve always worked in accounting firms or own- er-operated business as their company accountant,” she said. With husband Steve she moved from the Waikato to Westport before moving to Ashburton six years ago and joining the Guardian staff. After a stint out of the accounting industry where she worked in the dairy industry, Adam returned to the Guardian this year in an accounting role. “Leaving my industry made me realise how much I liked this kind of work. I absolutely love numbers,” she said. “I enjoy this company and the people here are so good to work with.” Barb says she is all about systems and numbers and will be working to refine the company’s processes. “I’m very lucky to have a strong team with me. Everyone knows what they’re doing and there’s a lot of experience among staff and it’s good to have strong back-up and support from Bruce (Bell, general man- ager).” Her management style, Barb said, was to resolve issues by working with people and making them feel valued and in finding ways to help staff to work smarter, rather than harder.

  • Education & Learning
    Education & Learning 'Rugby with Rodney' 2 Like everybody, in between washing his hands and learning new rugby skills, Rodney needs some help with learning other skills and is asking all his friends if they could work through some of his tasks and send them into us or post them to us on twitter. [email protected] @DRA_Community Good luck and thanks for your help. Task 1 Lots of Rodney's friends that play for Dragons Rugby are in different positions. Could you write a paragraph on one forward and one of our backs and explain the differences between them? Rodney says : “Think about what different skills sets or qualities they may need…” Task 2 I sometimes get really confused with the different sizes and weights of our Dragons players. Below are some of our players: I would like you to research and tell me the height and weight of them all and convert it from metric to imperial measurements. (Metres & Kilograms / Feet & Pounds). Rio Dyer Elliot Dee Jack Dixon Rhodri Williams Ross Moriarty Richard Hibbard Sam Davies Aaron Wainright Task 3 I love keeping fit and healthy like all our Dragons players. Could you help me by using your technology at home to video a short exercise video in your home or garden to give me some ideas? Rodney says: “Think of using your communication skills, as well as videoing the action from different angles or slow motion to help me understand your exercises…” Task 4 At the Dragons we don’t only have Welsh born players in our squad.

  • 20Th May 2017 Round 10
    20th May 2017 Round 10 SEASON TOTAL 1 Josh Ioane TEAM 1 14 2 Josh Renton 11 3 Josh Walden 11 4 Leroy Van Dam 9 5 Jona Nareki 9 6 Chucky Koroi 8 7 Ryan Hammer 8 8 Jared Williams 7 9 Tom Rowe 7 ROUND 10, May 20 2017 University of Otago Oval, 2.45pm UNIVERSITY TAIERI University and Taieri clash in Round 10 action, with the two teams entering the game in a ‘must win’ mind-set. University are winless in 4 (3 losses and a draw), whilst after a slow start Taieri are on a mini resurgence and are undefeated since 29th April. Key Clash: The forward pack battle is set to be decisive with a wet, cold day predicted. University will look to set the platform with Ricky Jackson, Angus Williams & Jack Sherratt, whilst Taieri will answer back with the likes of Josh Reid, Brendon Murdoch and Vinnie O’Connell. In the battle of the backs, Fletcher Smith makes a timely return for University and will take his place at Fullback. For Taieri rising star Matt Whangaa returns to the heart of the midfield, after a lengthy injury stint. Whangaa made his return via the Colts last week and after getting through 15mins, including scoring two tries has been elevated to the Premier side. Players to Watch: Taylor Haugh (University) one of many young guns in the University side, Haugh is an exceptional attacking threat including speed (1.57sec over 10m – Otago record) and agility. He has popped up at first five, wing and fullback this year, so don’t be surprised if Haugh roams on Saturday.
