‘Under siege from nature’ by Wynsley Wrigley

TOMORROW is the 35th anniversary of heavy flooding that devastated Gisborne and much of the countryside. The destruction caused by 200 millimetres of rain falling in 24 hours was such that The Gisborne Herald later published an eight-page feature entitled Flood 1985. The feature was dominated by photographs — a small sample of the hundreds of images of the city and the countryside, including numerous aerial shots, in The Herald archives. A common image from the town and country was of residents proceeding along streets or farmland in small boats. The Herald on that fateful day of July 26, AFTERMATH: Kids paddle on a section of Childers Road in the flood of 1985.

Mayor Ted Wheeler and hundreds of others on Wednesday night were objecting to the presence of federal police sent by US President Donald Trump, who labelled the demonstrators as “agitators and anarchists” after Wheeler was gassed. Late on Thursday, a judge GASSED: Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler, right, stands at a fence specifically blocked federal guarding a federal courthouse as tear gas drifts around him in agents from arresting or using Portland, Oregon, during another night of protests against the physical force against journalists presence of federal agents sent by US President Donald Trump to and legal observers at the quell unrest in the city.

The Gisborne Herald • Saturday, July 25, 2020 SPORT 31 Social-league feedback sought NETBALL by Jack Malcolm ORGANISERS of a netball initiative set up by youth for youth are seeking feedback on their plans for a new social league. Gisborne Netball Centre’s newly formed Youth Activation Group is made up of 11 girls from four local high schools. It is part of a wider national programme run by Sport New Zealand and Netball New Zealand to get more secondary school students interested in the code. The group has just released a survey on a proposed summer league that would start in Term 4 and run for six weeks. The survey seeks the opinions of girls aged 12 to 18 on how the sport could be made more appealing to those who have never played, or those who have stopped playing but might want to get back into it. And they want those ideas to work while preserving what makes the sport fun for those already taking part. The group started meeting over Zoom during lockdown and has members of widely varying skills. Fariha Fatema had never touched a netball before she joined the group.
