PAPANUI WILL have a
new liquor outlet in spite of
opposition from businesses and
the local high school.
An application by B & S Liquor
Limited Reporting Agencies’ to
have a liquor store at 495 Papanui
Rd was granted at a hearing on
June 2 by a district licensing
committee.
Northgate Community
Services Trust, Papanui High
School, police and businesses
were listed as objectors to the
application but none appeared at
the hearing.
In the past, the company has
applied for a liquor licence for
a store in Stanmore Rd but was
turned down by the committee as
the area was unsuitable.
A number of businesses close
to the proposed shop said they
were angry with the idea of another
liquor store.
One local business owner, who
did not want to be named, said
she was concerned about littering.
“So I guess I will be picking up
those bottles from my carpark
each morning,” she said.
She was concerned also about
parking and its proximity to
Papanui High School.
“There are plenty of other
places to get alcohol, why do we
need another one?”
Northgate Community Services
Trust spokeswoman Karen
Watson said there were a lot of
youths in the area who did not
need another place to get alcohol.
“There are plenty of places to
get alcohol in the area. There are
supermarkets just down the road,
Super Liquor and wine bars up
and down the street,” she said.
Papanui High School Board of
Trustees deputy chairman Jerome
Williamson was unavailable for
comment. B & S Liquor could
not be reached for comment.

Alleyway a safety concern
• By Andrew King
DRUG DEALING, graffiti,
damage and rowdy nights have
forced a community board
to put $5000 into a Mairehau
walkway and bus stop to make it
safer for locals.
Residents near the walkway,
between Hills Rd and Onawe Pl,
have put up with ongoing drug
dealing, graffiti and damage
to their bus stop and walkway
fences and people trespassing on
their properties.
City councillor
Ali Jones (left)
organised a security
camera to be put in
for a few weeks to
illustrate how bad
the area is. However,
she said it was
quite a deterrent.
“We did notice reduced graffiti
and anti-social behaviour.
However, once the camera was
removed, there was more damage
to the fence,” she said.
The security camera was similar
to the one used on Manchester
St, St Albans to deter clients
visiting sex workers.
The Shirley-Papanui Community
Board will allocate $5000
from its discretionary response
fund to enable a one-off upgrade
to the walkway, and to support a
neighbourhood art project.
The art project, led by the
residents, will improve the walkway
by covering graffiti on the
walkway fences.
The board has asked the
city council to give priority to
maintaining the bus stop near
the Hills Rd entrance to the
walkway to ensure that it is
safe and comfortable for users.
Lighting in the walkway and
outside the shopping precinct on
Hills Rd will undergo a safety
assessment.
Senior Sergeant Stephen
McDaniel said putting in the
camera has shown a reduction
in calls to the area.
“There have been less congregations
of people due to the
camera,” he said.
He said a community art
project would be a great idea
as it does deter people from
vandalism.
IMPROVEMENTS:
A walkway that
runs between
Hills Rd and
Onawe Pl will get
a $5000 upgrade
to fix damaged
fences, clean
up grafitti and
improve lighting.

SLOAN
Cr Jones said putting the camera
back was a possibility.
“We may always put the camera
back, of course. Or it may be
there already, but better hidden,”
she said.
HAVE YOUR SAY: Will a
$5000 improvement to the
walkway between Hills Rd
and Onawe Pl solve the
problem of drug dealing
and graffiti in the area?

In Brief
NO REIMBURSEMENT
St Francis of Assisi School
in St Albans will not be paid
back $150,000 of development
contributions it made when
it moved onto its new site
on Innes Rd. Development
contributions are fees paid
to compensate for the added
strain of new development on
infrastructure. City councillors
were tied seven to seven when
they voted on whether the
school should be reimbursed.
St Paul’s School in Dallington
and Our Lady of Fatima in
Edgeware were merged after the
February 22, 2011 earthquake
left St Paul’s unusable.
ROAD CHANGE
This week, southbound
traffic along Russley Rd will
be temporarily merged into
one lane. Two lanes will be
maintained for northbound
vehicles. This will allow the first
half of the southern airport
access underpass to be built.
This stage will take about 5-6
months to complete and then
northbound traffic will be
merged to complete the second
half of the underpass. For more

Bringing communities back to life
This week’s
Soapbox is
written by city
councillor and
Fendalton-Waimairi
Community Board
member Raf
Manji about how
suburban plans can be brought
to life through a new arm of the
city council.
Post-earthquake, much of the focus
has been on the rebuilding of the central
city and the long-awaited anchor projects.
At the same time, many communities
have been asking for help and engagement
on the re-development of their
villages and suburban centres.
The city council has developed a number
of suburban master plans but has
limited ability to bring them to life, as
the areas often include private landowners
and developers.
This was one of the reasons the city
council set up a new entity called Development
Christchurch Limited. DCL has
responsibility for working with the community
and the private sector to bring
about better outcomes for local areas.
At the most basic level, this means
helping with the re-development of
local malls and village shops, using city
council-owned land to energise new
investment and allow local communities,
business associations and groups
to drive the changes they want to see in
their commercial neighbourhoods.
For example, this new approach could
provide a great opportunity for Bishopdale
Mall. As the city council owns the
land, it’s in a good position to work with
the community to enable the regeneration
of the public space, as well as the
upgrade of the current commercial
stock.
A recent example of community
input is the new Bishopdale Library and
community centre, which will shortly
get underway. The joint working group
process to prepare the plan illuminated
the new, inclusive approach from the
city council, which DCL will look to
build on.
Opportunities for local management
of the public space and the ability to redraw
the map of the building footprints
will help to make Bishopdale Mall an
even more attractive place for the local
community to visit and act as a core
driver of economic and social activity
for the north-west.
•Do you believe suburban plans
will be easier to complete with
the city council’s new entity,
Development Christchurch Ltd?

FLAME FILES
Empty houses
target of arson
• By Mark Thomas – Fire Risk
Management Officer
WE’VE LOST a lot of old
buildings in the last five
years. Most of them from
earthquake damage.
However, we’ve also seen
a number of earthquake
damaged properties empty,
shored up and supposedly
secure, waiting to be
repaired, which have been
the target of arsonists.
There was another
one this week at the
Risingholme Community
Centre in Opawa.
I apologise to the good
people of that area, but I
wasn’t aware it existed.
The building may or
may not be saveable now. I
suspect it will not be.
But there will be another
empty section where the
history of our city once
stood. Kind of sad really,
isn’t it?
The last week has seen
a number of calls from
Linwood and Bromley areas
reporting strong smells of
gas.
It turns out a trucking
firm has been depositing
soil in their yard. Each time
it’s turned over, or added to,
a smell permeates around
the east. It’s not dangerous,
just unpleasant.
In the equally unusual
category was the call out
of the troops to a liquid
seeping from a closed
container in Middleton last
Friday.
Investigations revealed
the container had been
loaded in the heavy rain of
that week.
Was it rainwater seeping
out a number of days later?
Well, it’s not high in the list
of hazardous materials.
Finally someone in
Halswell tried to light their
fireplace with the help of
petrol on Monday. The
result was a lounge on
fire. This is not a rare
occurrence. One word if
you’re tempted – don’t.
Readers responds to
last week’s article about
lowering the speed limit
on sections of St Asaph
St and Hagley Ave as
well as 27 other roads in
the city.
Robert McGregor,
Harewood –
This speed limit is a joke.
Most cyclists I know will
be breaking the speed limit
most of the time.
Many average more than
35km/h as a rule.
Michael J Brathwaite,
Spreydon –
Regarding the proposed
speed limit changes, I am
totally against any changes to
the speed limits.
The only road that will
affect me is Waterloo Rd,
which I use one day a week.
Although I drive below
the 100km/h limit, unless
someone is following me, I
never strike any congestion
on the road.
It is a rural road, and it is
nice to be able to drive without
keeping an eye constantly
on the speedometer of my
car.

I work here,
I sell here’’

Burke in council race
• By Donna Miles
FAIMEH BURKE has
announced her candidacy in
the new Waimairi Ward for the
October local body elections.
Lady Burke, a long-time
community board member, is
standing for the city council.
She will not stand for the new
Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood
Community Board.
It will be Lady Burke’s fifth
attempt at winning a seat
around the city council table.
Lady Burke said she has had
discussions with two sitting
councillors, Raf Manji and
Jamie Gough, over which
ward they would stand in.
It is anticipated October’s
elections will be hotly contested
because of boundary
changes and the creation of
three more council seats.
Cr Raf Manji is expected
to announce his decision to
whether to stand by the beginning
of July.
“It’s a major commitment,
so not a decision I take
lightly,” he said.
Cr Gough said if Cr Manji
decided to run, the two would
work closely to ensure three

strong independent candidates
were elected for their joined
Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood
community board area.
“Raf and I obviously work
both closely and well together
so we are prudently taking a
holistic view of our ward,” he
said.
Cr Gough said his chances
of getting re-elected was
best in Fendalton Ward but
believed the work he had done
for the wider Fendalton-Waimairi
Ward made him electable
in any of the new wards.
Lady Burke said she was
buoyed by the fact she had a
good knowledge of the local
LAWyerS
issues and a good support base
in the area.
In the recent six-yearly review
of council representation
the number of existing wards
were increased from seven to
16.
Each of the new 16 wards
will now be represented by one
councillor, increasing the total
number of councillors from
13 to 16.
The number of community
boards will be reduced from
eight to seven.
Overall, the number of
elected councillors and community
board members stays
the same the same at 54.
In Brief

Broadcasting to
beat loneliness
NOR’WEST NEWS
CTV News now
on Plains FM
AFRICAN MUSIC is as
varied as the many African
cultures it represents, and
although it’s rare to hear
these sounds on broadcast
media in Canterbury, a
young mother of two has
been doing just that for
the last two years through
a radio show called Voices
of Africa on Plains FM.
Regina Smedley is married
to a New Zealander
and is proud to call herself
a Cantabrian, but she was
born and raised in a small
village in Malawi.
Since 2008, she has been
living in Christchurch and
successfully straddling
two cultures by immersing
herself in the Kiwi lifestyle
while still staying connected
to her roots.
As is common with
many migrants, she has
also had to confront deep
feelings of isolation.
“There are very few Malawian
people in Christchurch.
So when you meet one
you immediately want to sit
down and have a long chat.”
The impetus to broadcast
Voices of Africa was born
out of her desire to overcome
feelings of loneliness.
Regina readily admits that
she struggled at times to
feel she belonged and
having a project to focus
on which was close to her
heart helped immensely.
“I had always wanted to
do broadcasting so when
I got this opportunity to
present my own show it
was a life’s dream come
true for me. In my village,
there were very few opportunities.
My kids couldn’t
believe it.”
The radio programme is
predominantly in English
and aims to help eliminate
cultural barriers, provide a
connection for the African
community to their roots,
and assist all migrants to
feel part of the Christchurch
community.
“I like to focus on
interviews with recent
migrants, or New Zealanders
who have themselves
been to Africa. It’s a great
way to share stories and
experiences with the
wider community. I get to
choose the African music
I want to play and it really
helps build my confidence
speaking English as well.”
As if raising a family,
running a cooking business
and producing a
radio show aren’t enough,
Regina also raises funds
for a children’s orphanage
in Malawi. She is hosting
a fundraising dinner at
Visions Restaurant at 7pm
on June 10 on behalf of the
charity Mphatikizo.
Voices of Africa airs on
Plains FM 96.9 on Fridays
at noon, repeats Saturdays
at 11pm, and is available to
download as a podcast at
www.plainsfm.org.nz and
on iTunes.

A COLLABORATION between two
local news broadcasters has started.
Plains FM began live broadcasting
the CTV evening news on June 7,
running each weekday from 5.30-
6pm.
Plains FM is a community-run
station based at the Ara Institute of
Canterbury, while CTV is locallyowned
by Star Media and has broadcast
regional news since 1991.
Plains FM manager Nicki Reece
said it was a great local collaboration.
“For us, it’s a natural fit, because
we’re firmly locally-based with
programmes by and for the
community, and this a further
reflection of what’s going on in a
visual way at CTV. So it’s a really
nice cross-pollination between two
local entities.”
Star Media editor-in-chief Barry
Clarke said the association with
Plains FM was another step for CTV
as it broadens its reach in the Canterbury
region.
Plains FM is broadcast on 96.9
FM, and is also live streamed at
www.plainsfm.org.nz. CTV News
can also be watched live or on
demand at www.ctv.co.nz
PARTNERSHIP: Plains FM will now broadcast
CTV News between 5.30 and 6pm
each weekday.

The $39 million bowel cancer screening
pilot announced in Budget 2016 will tick
the box for our residents. I receive a lot
of feedback that highlights the issue as
a major concern. With my background
in health, I endorse any programme that
will stop New Zealanders dying from
bowel cancer, which is a leading cause of
death. Early diagnosis will save lives.
I’m enjoying catching up with our over
65s at my Super Seniors coffee mornings.
It has been interesting to hear the range
of issues that have been brought forward.
Look out for your invitation coming to

Heritage buildings recognised
• By Andrew King
MONA VALE Lodge and
Acland House have been
recognised in this year’s
Canterbury Heritage Awards
final.
Acland House was commended
in the domestic saved
and restored category while
Mona Vale Lodge was highly
commended in the domestic
saved and restored category, and
public realm saved and restored
category.
The sold out award ceremony
saw 23 of the 80 entrants awarded
highly commended while
seven received commended.
Mona Vale Lodge, off Fendalton
Rd, is one of three domestic
buildings that form part of
Mona Vale. The lodge was damaged
in the February 22, 2011
earthquake.
2016 Canterbury Heritage Award winners:
RESTORED: Mona Vale Lodge was highly commended in
two categories.
It was the first to be fully
repaired, restored and in use
again. The judges said it was an
excellent example of a careful
conservation approach by the
city council that has not only
fully restored the building, but
has resulted in the restoration
of number of hidden original
features, such as pressed metal
ceilings.
It also included the reinstatement
of its detailed brick
chimneys and Marseille tiled
roof, ensuring that it retains its
landmark position as the southern
gateway to the Mona Vale
gardens.
Acland House was originally
built in 1893 and has been the
Christchurch Girls High School
boarding hostel since 1921.
It suffered significant damage
on February 22, 2011 and
reopened again in May 2015
after earthquake repairs, seismic
strengthening and refurbishment
had been undertaken.

Homes needed for
exchange students
AN EXCHANGE programme
is asking for Christchurch
families to open their doors to
international students.
Student Exchange Australia
New Zealand will be sending
high school-aged children to
Christchurch, from as close as
Australia to as far away as Brazil
and France.
The group is a not-for-profit
organisation.
This month, it will be receiving
students from Australia, Brazil,
Denmark, France, Finland, Germany,
Japan and Switzerland.
The new arrivals plan to live
with a host family and attend a
local school for three, five or 10
months.
Hosting an exchange student
allows local families to experience
a foreign culture first hand,
be exposed to a new language
and pass on parts of their own
culture.
All students have at least basic
levels of English, and would attend
a school in the local area.
Aboriginal student Jaydah is
looking forward to living in New
Zealand and is hoping to learn
about the Maori culture.
Denmark native Caroline, 16,
has been to New Zealand before
and loved it so much she now
wants to live here and experience
the culture as an exchange
student.
In her spare time, Caroline
works as a swimming instructor
and in a bakery.
Nathan, 16, is a French student
who enjoys school, tennis, handball
and skiing.
He loves hiking in nature and
is looking forward to discovering
New Zealand and meeting new
people.
But a host family isn’t only
doing the student a favour by
giving them a roof over their
head, as told by the Stuart family.
They hosted Danish student
Simon for eight months. Victoria
Stuart said the experience was
fantastic, and that Simon was
a role model to their younger
children.

Cobham Intermediate students put on their gumboots and
went insect hunting as part of a programme run by Lincoln
University. The Waterwatch course is run by the university
and gives years 7-13 students the chance to participate in
real ecological practices outside the classroom. Students
got involved in measuring a range of physical, chemical and
biological indicators of water quality. First they disturbed the
river bottom in order to catch sediment in their nets. They then
transferred the sediment to trays and examined the samples
up close to try and identify the insects that they found. They
then processed and interpreted data and information gathered
from the field trip to produce an assessment on the streams
health.
YOUNG SCIENTISTS: Cobham
Intermediate School students
look on as Hayley Clutterbuck
(holding net) takes samples to
analysis.
COLLECTING: Student Casey
Kereama (right) catches
sediment in a net to identify
insects and flora to determine
the stream’s health.
DISCOVERY TIME: Year 5 and 6 students at Wairakei School had no winter sport during
Queen’s Birthday Weekend so they filled their time with lego, smoothies, biscuit decoration
and outdoor games. Pupils could chose between construction with lego and large planks,
making fruit and vege smoothies, biscuit decoration, and outdoor games. Most pupils were
able to have a go at two activities.
St Andrew’s College was a wash with colour as it celebrated its international students with an
assembly recently. Every two years the school holds an assembly to showcase the diversity
it has on its campus. Students dress up in clothes native to their homelands and bring in their
national flag to show others their heritage. They were welcomed into the school hall by a Takumi
drum group and entertained by a group visiting from Ecole School in Dehradun, India. School
head of values and culture Hamish Bell said it is fantastic to see students representing their
homeland. “The whole school was involved which makes it quite a special event,” he said.
SCHOOL PRIDE: Director of
international and exchange
students Pale Tauti walks the
New Zealand flag into the
international assembly.
DIVERSE: St Andrew’s College showcases just some of the
nationalities that go to the school.
HAROLD’S BACK: The Life Education bus visited Wairakei
School’s juniors for two days last week. All junior pupils had
the opportunity to visit the bus to learn about friendship,
digital citizenship, respect for each other and finding out
about being bucket fillers by making people feel happy and
bucket dippers by making people feel sad or unhappy.

Our People
When the world is your stage
Ailis Oliver-Kerby, 21, is fast on track to
becoming a professional performer after
being accepted into performing arts schools
in London, New York and Australia. She spoke
to Georgia O’Connor-Harding about living all
around the world while growing up, her love
of the arts and being related to broadcaster
Bernadine Oliver-Kerby.
Great speaking to you. How
are you finding performing in
Showbiz Christchurch’s Hairspray
so far?
I have been absolutely loving
it. It has just been such a positive
experience and to have audiences
at last is so different. Having the
laughs is more fun. I’m playing
Penny Pingleton. She is such
a lovable character with great
one-liners. Hairspray is one of
my favourite shows and Penny
is one of my ultimate roles. I
did Hairspray in the
United Kingdom but I
always wanted to play
Penny. When I came
to Dunedin I got that,
which is cool, and
now I have it again,
which is special.
You’ve been all
around the world.
Tell me about the
places you’ve lived
in?
It’s always a hard
question when
someone asks where I am from
because it is quite a long story. I
was born in Auckland and then
lived in Christchurch as a primary
school kid. My family moved
to England for a couple of years
before my teenage years. It was
back and forth from England to
here. Then, when I was about 12,
we moved to Hong Kong because
my Dad worked as a pilot with
a Hong Kong airline – Cathay
Pacific. It was getting really hard
for the family to be so split up all
the time. Dad was always flying
so we all moved there together.
What was growing up in
Hong Kong like?
CENTRE STAGE: Ailis Oliver-Kerby playing the role of Liesl in
the Sound of Music with Taieri Musical Society last year.
It was such an amazing adventure.
We were there for seven
years and there was a great theatre
scene in Hong Kong as well.
The dance is competitive there.
I worked hard with my singing
and dancing at the international
Island School. I met lots of British,
American and Australian
teachers. It is really different in
the middle of the city. So cultural.
I feel home there now but I
can see why people would have a
cultural shock.
And then you went
to the United Kingdom
to study?
I was 16 and I
heard about a musical
theatre course in the
United Kingdom. It
was a pre-tertiary
musical theatre
course at Tring Park
School for Performing
Arts. I just
wanted to be somewhere
I could do this
full-time.
What drew you back to New
Zealand?
It felt like I needed to get back
to my roots. I liked the look of
Otago University – I had lots
of old friends going there. The
main building is kind of like
Hogwarts.
What’s the most valuable
thing you’ve picked up from
studying the performing arts?
I think the hardest thing about
this industry is all the set backs.
And you have to believe in yourself.
If you don’t believe in yourself
no one else will. I recently
did the Christchurch International
Musical Theatre Summer
School and Andrea Burns,
who is on Broadway in On Your
Feet! at the moment, said to us:
“If you’re ready, you never have
to get ready”. It is all about being
prepared. And you have to
be prepared for every audition.
Preparation is the one thing that
can help you. You have got to appreciate
the good moments and
not let the bad moments suck it
out of you.
And is it your dream to be on
West End with all your achievements?
After getting accepted into the
Royal Central School of Speech
and Drama in London, Stella
Adler Studio of Acting in New
York and Making it On Broadway
in Sydney, it is my dream to
work in West End productions.
I most recently came second in
the International Monologue
Competition where I was lucky
enough to receive more than
2000 votes.
What an incredible variety
of places to choose from.
Have you thought about
what option you will take
up?
I do think London is where I
want to be. I have worked there
before and have contacts. I also
just found out I got into Legally
Blonde at the Court Theatre. I
haven’t confirmed anything yet.
I am trying to defer my place
in London so I can do the show
here and go the following year.
Everything is still in limbo at the
moment.
Tell me a bit more about your
family. Your dad is a pilot, what
do the others do?
My Mum studied psychology
and she is a career coach. She
is also a business owner. She
does psychology assessments.
She helps me with my CV. My
brother Lachie is very talented.
He has just released his album
on SoundCloud called The
Reach. His music is alternative
rap and he creates his own beats.
My brother is also a massive
rugby player at school. When he
was at Christ’s College he was in
the first XV for rugby. He is very
talented.
What’s it like being related to
Bernadine Oliver-Kerby?
She is an amazing aunty. She
is always there for me. I’ve been
to Auckland quite a lot with my
auditions and agency, Auckland
Actors Ltd. She always drives me
around and would do anything
for us. She enjoys watching
shows. She came and watched
my brother in his school production
of Cats and she came to see
me in the Sound of Music with
the Taieri Musical Society last
year. She has an amazing voice
as well. Not sure if she sings a lot
anymore. It is her little secret.
She was in musicals at school.
You are so busy with your
performing. What do you
always make time for and value
the most?
I value my time with my family.
I take my studies seriously. I
loved doing my degree, reading
and performing. I am lucky to
have friends all over the world
now which I value greatly.

Vegetarian chef in final
A CLEARWATER chef’s first
entry in a cooking competition
has made the finals of the
New Zealand Vegetarian Dish
Challenge.
Peppers Clearwater Resort
Lakes Restaurant’s senior chef
de partie Drew Weeda’s entry,
Out of this Earth, has earned
her a New Zealand Vegetarian
Dish Challenge Excellence
Award plaque.
Chefs are
challenged
to create
delicious and
inspired meals
from one
of the three
categories of
breakfast or
brunch, lunch
and dinner or
fine dining.
Ms Weeda’s
said she
wanted to create
a dish that would showcase
some of their wonderfully
versatile root vegetables.
“I teamed up baby turnips
and beetroot with goat cheese
balls and dehydrated kale. The
cubed tofu was dusted with
beetroot powder, which
provided a lovely delicate
flavour, and gently fried then
topped with a raspberry reduction,”
she said.
This is not only her first
entry into the challenge but
her first time entering any
cooking competition and
she is delighted to have her
creative talents recognised.
“I grew up with a vegetarian
sister and a chef for a dad, so
I have spent many years not
only eating vegetarian food
but preparing it,”
she said.
The winners of
the three categories,
announced in
July, will each be
awarded a winner’s
plate.
Competition
organiser and food
services consultant
Pip Duncan said as
plant based diets
continue to grow
in popularity, chefs
need to provide
a greater range of choice of
vegetable dishes.
“Chefs are being called upon
to create imaginative and tasty
vegetable dishes,” he said.

Moascar Cup
up for grabs
• By Gordon Findlater
ST ANDREW’S College will
look to retain the Moascar Cup
when they host Timaru Boys’
High School today.
The cup is the schoolboy rugby
equivalent of the Ranfurly
Shield with its history going
back to World War I.
Mounted on a piece of a
wooden propeller from a German
aircraft shot down in
Palestine, the trophy was first
played for between British, New
Zealand and Australian troops
camped in Moascar, Egypt, following
the war.
Bought into the country by
the New Zealand Mounted
Rifles Unit and Depot which
had won the cup, it was gifted to
New Zealand Rugby Union on
the condition it be a challenger
trophy for secondary schools.
Over 100 years on, the Moascar
Cup is now one of the most
coveted prizes in New Zealand
schoolboy rugby.
STAC claimed the trophy
from Wellington’s Scots College
late last year becoming just the
third Christchurch school to
do so, along with Christchurch
Boys’ High School and St Bede’s
College.
Today, Timaru get a crack
at the silverware and there’s
no reason they won’t back
themselves to go back to South
Canterbury with an another
addition to the trophy case,
winning four of their six games
to start the UC Championship.
Kick-off is at 1pm.
ON THE LINE: St Andrew’s
College lock George Murfin
proudly shows the Moascar
Cup.
READY TO GO: Sports broadcaster and former New Zealand double international representative
in cricket and hockey Lesley Murdoch opens the new turf at Rangi Ruru Girls’ School.
Rangi Ruru’s new turf
• By Gordon Findlater
RANGI RURU Girls’ School
has welcomed a new artificial
hockey turf.
Current Black Sticks Gemma
Flynn, Jordan Grant and Rachel
McCann attended the opening,
watching on as current national
champions, the first XI Rangi
Ruru hockey team, had their
first official practice on the new
surface.
The turf cost just over $1m
and is included in stage two of
the Project Blue Sky Rangi Ruru
campus redevelopment which
began in 2012.
Sports broadcaster and
former New Zealand double
international representative
in cricket and hockey, Lesley
Murdoch ONZM, MBE, was
also present, cutting the ribbon
on the world class facility which
she knows will prove pivotal
in the growth of hockey in the
region.
“It’s massive. It just takes the
pressure off those existing turfs
to get people on.” Murdoch said.
She also believes Canterbury
Hockey have done an amazing
job to stay competitive following
the Christchurch earthquakes,
especially at secondary
school level.
Last September Rangi Ruru
claimed the Federation Cup, the
highest honour in secondary
school girl’s hockey.
Christchurch club HSOB/
Burnside will use the hockey
turf for training.
Canterbury Hockey will also
use the facilities for weekend
junior hockey and representative
training.

GREAT EFFORT: Five north-west students have put in a solid
showing at the Australian Gymnastics Championships in
Melbourne recently. After long hours training and building
strength, (back L to R) Anna Hooker, 14, Isabelle Ralston, 14,
Emma Logan, 14, (front L to R) Abby Field, 14, coach Alesha
Berry and Catherine Hooker, 17, all made the trip across
the ditch to compete. In the level seven competitions, Anna
Hooker placed second in hoop, Logan placed third in clubs,
Field placed fourth in ribbon. Together with Renee Macrae
from Nelson, the New Zealand team placed second overall in
level seven. All five girls train between 10-14 hours per week
at Breens Intermediate. In the level nine competition, Ralston
placed 15th overall while Catherine Hooker came 14th overall
in the level 10 competition.
RANGI RURU Girls’ School
student Una Foyle is off to
Auckland to trial for New
Zealand’s FIFA under-20
women’s World Cup football
team that will play in Papua
New Guinea in November.
Foyle, 17, plays in the goalkeeper
position, and is one of
only two Christchurch members
in the current under-20
squad.
“There’s one other young
Christchurch woman in the
team and she’s 19 so a bit older
than me. I live and breathe
football and am really focused
on getting into the World Cup
team,” Foyle said.
She has been playing since
she was an 8-year-old, and currently
plays for Coastal Spirit in
their premier women’s team.
The young footballer can
also look ahead to the 2018
Under-20 World Cup following
this one.
“After this campaign, I’ll be
training hard for selection for
the next Under-20 World Cup
in 2018, as I will still be eligible,”
she said.
Rangi Ruru’s director of sport
Jo Fogarty said Foyle is an exceptional
talent and shows what
can be achieved with focus and
hard work.
Foyle is in Auckland from
June 10-20 during which time
the under-20 squad will play the
an under-19 Untied States team
twice.

Ensuring a safe work place
LEARNINg fIRST aid is not only a part
of ensuring a safe work place, but also
an integral part of our engagement with
the wider community. We all learn the
necessary skills to ensure that in times of
emergency we are able to assist our work
colleagues, but are we able to take these
skills home, into the community or on to the
sports field?
Not all work places are the same and
the injury risk for each place can be wide
and variable. The office attended by
administrators does not carry the same
risk as those people working with heavy
machinery, or perhaps at some distance from
a regular ambulance service. It is therefore
essential that you pick the right first aid
course to suit all of your activities – both
professional
and social.
Take, for example, an office worker who
does not have a high risk work environment
and whose concern might be to ensure that
they can deal with minor cuts and superficial
injuries, or the ability to perform effective
CPR. These skills can be achieved on a
course of eight hours duration and would
generally fit into low to medium risk area.
But take this same person on to a sports field
either as a spectator or player when a higher
level injury occurs. The eight hour course
covering unit standards 6402 and 6401 (or
26551 and 26552) does not cover head neck
and spinal injuries, eye injuries, hypothermia
and poisonings.
The majority of injuries occur outside of
the work place, in fact one in three injuries
occurs in the home, making it the most
common place for injuries to happen.
NOR’WEST NEWS
New Zealand children are twice as likely
to die through injury as children who live
in Australia. They mostly die as a result of
motor vehicles accidents or falls in the home.
fatalities from leisure and sport are not far
behind those in the workplace.
The wider 12 hour course teaches the
additional unit standard 6400 and provides
a wide knowledge base for medium to high
risk environments. This course covers many
of the skills required to deal with the most
common injuries, such as falls (which can
result in head neck and spinal injuries) and
dealing with complex scenes such as motor
vehicle accidents.
If you are not sure on the course best
suited to your needs, ask your accredited
first aid training provider. They can explain
the course content and give you options that
will best suit your needs. Look beyond the
workplace and consider your family and
your location. Check that you have a good
quality first aid kit that is up-to-date with
replenished items, and that everyone knows
where it is located.

HEALTH & BEAUTY
Be health smart
this winter
HaNDS arE the main pathways of germ
transmission. Hand hygiene is therefore
the most important measure to avoid the
transmission of harmful germs.
Wash your hands, before & after food
preparation and eating, if you borrow
someone elses equipment and of course
after blowing your nose. For convienience
it is a good idea to have hand sanitiser on
hand to use in between washing.
Sneezing & coughing into the crook
of your arm or tissues rather than your
hand, reduces the spread of airborne
bugs. remove tissues to the rubbish
immediately.
Keep hydrated, two thirds of your body
is made of water, so keeping hydrated
is one of the most important things you
can do for your health. Dehydration
symptoms range from headaches to
nausea to fatigue, but the effects of
dehydration on your immune system are
not always as obvious. Staying hydrated
keeps the mucus membranes moist, which
keeps the immune system functioning
optimally. Unfortunately, lattes and wine
don’t count, but upping your intake of
water is incredibly beneficial. aim to
drink at least eight glasses of water a day.
You’ll notice the difference!
Eat in season, poor nutrition impairs
the immune response. Fresh vegetables,
fruits, nuts, grains and legumes or pulses
are full of immune-boosting properties
and antioxidants. Nature provides fresh
seasonal foods to compensate for what
our bodies are lacking at that time of
year. Kiwifruit & citrus fruits that are in
season throughout winter are packed with
Vitamin C.
Stress less, although short periods of
stress can actually be good for us longterm
chronic stress lowers our immunity,
making us more susceptible to colds and
flu. We all have our own ways of coping
and reducing stress so whether it’s taking
a bath, going to the gym, getting outdoors
in the garden or having fun with the kids,
do something to unwind. Not only are
you doing your adrenal glands a favour,
you’re also reducing your chances of being
struck down by the latest virus.
Get a good night’s sleep, sleep is
essential for your body to rest, repair and
rejuvenate. (Don’t you find you always
tend to look your best after a good night’s
sleep?) The human growth hormone
that’s released during sleep helps repair
your body at a cellular level, but it’s
also beneficial for the immune system.
Interrupted sleep (or just not enough of
it) significantly reduces the effectiveness
of your immune system, particularly the
natural killer cells, which is your body’s
first line of defence against germs.
