Operations Group Activity Report Bryan Nicholson, Chief Operating Officer, reports: Executive Summary The purpose of this report is to provide the Committee with an update on the District Library, Whanganui Regional Museum, Sarjeant Gallery, NZ Glassworks, Whanganui Venues & Events, Arts Facilitation, Emergency Management, Safer Whanganui and Health & Safety, which form the Operations Group, for the period 1 January 2017 to 30 April 2017. Progress Update District Library This was a (relatively) quiet quarter for the Library, with staff bedding into their new roles following a major restructure in December 2016. Frontline Services Manager, Nicholas Keene arrived from Auckland with his family in February. Nick was previously Community Library Manager at Ranui Library. Preparatory work for the introduction of Radio Frequency ID (RFID) tagging and the move to a new Integrated Library Management System (ILMS) has been underway through the period to the end of May. RFID will enable customer self-checkout and return and speedier transactions by staff; and the new ILMS will deliver improved functionality at a significantly reduced cost. A full report will follow once the systems are in place. The new system will go live on 22 June 2017, with RFID going live in September. A Children’s Day event was held in Queens Park on Sunday 5 March 2017. The Library stepped in after SKIP lost funding to help community partners, including Nga Tai O Te Awa, organise the family fun day. The event was attended by more than 1,000 people. The move of the heritage collection into the climate-controlled storage is complete. The mobile shelving (enabling more items to be stored in a smaller area) and the climate control system were entirely funded by a grant from the Lottery Grants Board Environment & Heritage Committee. Heritage Librarian Lynley Fowler celebrated fifty years’ service with Whanganui District Library on 6 February 2017. The District Library activity dashboard for January to April 2017 is attached. (Ref A1) Whanganui Regional Museum The main Museum buildings closed to the public from September 2016, but the Museum continues to provide a high level of access and has made major advances in its collection management and conservation while working on the overhaul of its storage, work and exhibition facilities. The seismic project is on schedule and being carried out with a high degree of co- operation among staff of the Council, the Museum and the contractors, W&W Construction. At the same time, the Museum secured funding for additional work from the Lottery Grants Board, the Minister for the Arts, Culture and Heritage, Te Puni Kōkiri Property and Community Services Committee 20 June 2017 and bequests totalling more than $900,000. Work on the Museum’s upgrade project is already underway and will continue into 2018. The Museum has yet to set a reopening date, but it is expected to be in the third quarter of 2018. The Museum’s temporary site at 62 Ridgway Street has kept the Museum active and accessible to the community while enabling the continuation of a range of key activities, most importantly, the Ministry of Education’s Learning Experiences Outside the Classroom programme. Overall, over 32,000 people used the Museum across a variety of sites in the first nine months of the year, exceeding the annual visitation target. All other Performance Indicators have been met or are on track for fulfilment by 30 June 2017. The Whanganui Regional Museum activity dashboard for January to April 2017 (Ref A2) and Service Level Agreement 2016 – 2017 (Ref A3) are attached.

  • Rob Waddell Discipline: Rowing Specialist Events: Single Scull
    CHAT with a Olympic Education CHAMPION Rob Waddell Discipline: Rowing Specialist events: Single scull Rob Waddell was born in Te Kuiti in 1975 and grew up on a farm in the King Country. He took up rowing while in year ten at Kings College in Auckland. Despite being small and slightly uncoordinated when he started, Rob was determined and soon made it into the school’s top rowing team. Rob also showed all-round ability by playing in his school’s First XV rugby team. As a 17 year old, Rob made the New Zealand junior rowing team. He was asked to try out for the national under-23 team, but declined as he was heading to Japan on a scholarship. In Japan, he learnt Japanese and gained a black belt in judo. Upon his return to New Zealand, he completed an honours degree in management studies at Waikato University, while continuing to row competitively. In 1993, Rob noticed he was having trouble with an irregular heartbeat. He didn’t stop rowing but didn’t want to let his team-mates down during a race. This led him to focus more on single sculling, although he still competed in team events. This change of focus enabled Rob to win the New Zealand single sculls title in 1995. At 20, he was the youngest New Zealand champion ever. In 1996, he won six out of seven national titles. He qualified for the 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games and finished seventh in the final. This was the beginning of an exciting rise through the ranks of world rowers.
