Group chief executive Mark Roberts, left, and Tasman District mayor Tim King cut a ribbon at the official opening of the new Alsco Richmond plant. The cost of the development would have been higher if a land swap had not been part of the equation. Alsco had about 5000 square metres of land at Stoke, which it swapped with Coman Construction as part of a deal for the 8000 square metre site in Estuary Place at Richmond where the new plant was built. Coman Construction also handled the building of what was now Alsco’s most carbon-efficient plant in Australasia, possibly even Asia-Pacific, Barden said.
Students Hannah Young and Brodie Seelan from Nayland College, and Nelson College for Girls Head Girl Anna Sawyer spoke, remembering their grandparents and great-grandparents who fought in both World Wars. Brigadier Sean Trengrove spoke at the service about a lesser-known Anzac battle, one that took place on Anzac day in 1951 in Kapyong, South Korea. “The Anzacs had been looking forward to a joint Anzac Day parade, that would have also featured Turkish soldiers – time heals old wounds,” he said.
