Traffic lights possible for<br />
dangerous intersection<br />
• By Andrew King<br />
A DANGEROUS Harewood<br />
intersection that is avoided by<br />
residents and people who work in<br />
the area could have traffic lights<br />
installed at it sooner rather than<br />
later.<br />
The Breens, Gardiners and<br />
Harewood Rds intersection<br />
has been a serious concern for<br />
residents and parents whose<br />
children need to cross it to get to<br />
school.<br />
At a recent Fendalton-<br />
Waimairi Community Board<br />
meeting a city council traffic<br />
engineer said they are working<br />
behind the scenes to bring<br />
forward a proposal to install<br />
traffic lights.<br />
It all comes<br />
down to finding<br />
the money to do<br />
it, according to<br />
board deputy<br />
chairman<br />
David<br />
Cartwright (left).<br />
“We have been told we can<br />
expect a solution to the problem<br />
in the next two months,” he said.<br />
Mr Cartwright said he<br />
questioned a report given to the<br />
board that said: “There are no<br />
current plans for upgrading the<br />
intersection.”<br />
“We said this is a real concern<br />
to the community so we need to<br />
find a solution,” he said.<br />
Mr Cartwright said he trusted<br />
that staff will work hard to put<br />
the community’s collective<br />
minds at rest.<br />
Shirley-Papanui Community<br />
Board deputy chairman Aaron<br />
Keown said he will start a<br />
petition to show the city council<br />
just how many residents are<br />
affected by the intersection.<br />
“I have received more<br />
correspondence on this issue<br />
than any other in my nine years<br />
of working as a city councillor<br />
and as a community board<br />

It is the second intersection<br />
near Breens Intermediate<br />
to come under fire from<br />
residents.<br />
Bishopdale residents have<br />
asked the city council to build a<br />
pedestrian island in the middle<br />
of busy Farrington Ave, near<br />
where it intersects with Wairakei<br />
Rd to assist students negotiating<br />
the traffic.<br />
The city council has said there<br />
are no plans to make further<br />
safety changes to the intersection<br />
– but has agreed to listen to<br />
community concerns.<br />

Permanent site for camera<br />
• By Andrew King<br />
A TEMPORARY camera<br />
championed by city councillor<br />
Ali Jones has prompted a<br />
permanent one to be installed in<br />
St Albans.<br />
Two new high-definition<br />
security cameras were installed<br />
last week on the corner of Manchester<br />
and Purchas Sts to deter<br />
anti-social behaviour.<br />
It comes after Cr Jones suggested<br />
a temporary one, in an<br />
attempt to solve ongoing issues<br />
between sex workers and residents.<br />
It was installed in May.<br />
The new security camera is<br />
being paid for and maintained<br />
by the city council.<br />
However,<br />
Shirley-Papanui<br />
Community<br />
Board<br />
deputy chairman<br />
Aaron<br />
Keown (left)<br />
said while it<br />
gives sex workers<br />
a safe spot<br />
to stand, it has been put in the<br />
wrong place.<br />
“It is a double-edged sword.<br />
Because of recent events the<br />
girls have been looking for a<br />
safer spot to stand, and right<br />
underneath this camera is<br />
perfect for them, which is not<br />
good for residents,” he said.<br />
Sex worker Renee<br />
Duckmanton, who was last seen<br />
on Manchester St, was allegedly<br />
murdered in May.<br />
Mr Keown believes it is a<br />
good start but more cameras<br />
were needed in the city centre to<br />
provide sex workers the safety<br />
they deserve while moving them<br />
out of residential areas.<br />
“The next step is more<br />
cameras and more toilets<br />
for those who work in this<br />
industry,” he said.<br />
Police had were consulted<br />
by the city council to find the<br />
best place to install the camera,<br />
they will also have access to the<br />
footage.<br />
The camera will go live in the<br />
next two weeks.<br />
Right: The temporary<br />
camera was installed in May.<br />
NEW:<br />
The city<br />
council has<br />
installed a<br />
permanent<br />
camera<br />
on the<br />
corner of<br />
Manchester<br />
and Purchas<br />
Sts to<br />
replace a<br />
temporary<br />
one used<br />
to deter<br />
anti-social<br />
behaviour.<br />
In Brief<br />
WORK UNDERWAY<br />
Repairs to the earthquake<br />
damaged wastewater system<br />
on Fendalton Rd, near the<br />
intersection with Deans and<br />
Harper Aves, is under way. Work<br />
will begin between property<br />
numbers 2-4 on Fendalton Rd.<br />
It is installing new wastewater<br />
pipes and a pressure wastewater<br />
tank on private property, as well<br />
as a new wastewater chamber on<br />
the road outside of 4A Fendalton<br />
Rd. To minimise delays, in the<br />
morning there will be two lanes<br />
operating for southbound traffic.<br />
Northbound traffic will share<br />
a single lane. In the afternoon,<br />
there will be two lanes operating<br />
on Fendalton Rd for northbound<br />
traffic, and southbound traffic will<br />
share a single lane when passing<br />
the work site.<br />
FUNDING APPORVED<br />
The Fendalton-Waimairi<br />
Community Board will give<br />
two grants to students pursuing<br />
activities overseas. It approved<br />
$300 for 14-year-old Matthew<br />
O’Connor to attend the Children’s<br />
International Summer Village<br />
Camp in the Philippines. It also<br />
approved $600 for 21-year-old<br />
Anna Woods to put towards<br />
studying at the Hopkins-Nanjing<br />
Centre in China. The funding<br />
was sourced from the board’s<br />
<strong>2016</strong>/17 discretionary response<br />
fund.<br />

Time for a fairer<br />
distribution of wealth<br />
St Albans<br />
Uniting<br />
Parish<br />
minister<br />
Reverend<br />
Hugh Perry<br />
writes this<br />
week’s opinion piece<br />
about the growing<br />
gap between the rich<br />
and poor and ‘blame<br />
game’ that follows it.<br />
Tuesday <strong>July</strong> <strong>12</strong> <strong>2016</strong><br />
AS THE minister of St<br />
Albans Uniting Parish<br />
my concern is very much<br />
focused on the wellbeing<br />
of people and that is influenced<br />
by the world we live<br />
in as much as our immediate<br />
neighbourhood<br />
Statistics New Zealand’s<br />
recently reported that the<br />
wealth share of individuals<br />
shows the top 10 per cent<br />
of people have almost 60<br />
per cent of wealth and<br />
the bottom 40 per cent of<br />
households hold just 3 per<br />
cent.<br />
In his 1970 book Future<br />
Shock Alvin Toffler said<br />
that new technologies<br />
would free humanity from<br />
dangerous and dehumanising<br />
work but the real<br />
challenge will be to fairly<br />
distribute the wealth technology<br />
produces.<br />
Clearly Toffler’s predictions<br />
about new technology<br />
have been proved correct.<br />
But Statistics New Zealand<br />
percentages show we<br />
have failed to fairly distribute<br />
the wealth produced.<br />
We seem to compensate<br />
for this failure by blaming<br />
the poor, particularly the<br />
unemployed, for their<br />
plight.<br />
But in this world of robots<br />
and rapid worldwide<br />
communication there are a<br />
whole host of jobs that no<br />
longer exist and people are<br />
urged to retrain.<br />
I come across people<br />
who have and spent years<br />
retraining only to find they<br />
can’t get a job because they<br />
have no experience.<br />
I have met others who<br />
because of accident or<br />
other reasons are too slow<br />
in even menial tasks to be<br />
employed.<br />
The ultimate insult in<br />
the blame game, however,<br />
seems to be the practice of<br />
putting a homeless family<br />
in a motel while they<br />
wait for a suitable house<br />
then debiting their benefit<br />
to pay back the cost and<br />
therefore making them less<br />
able to pay rent.<br />
Isn’t it time we took up<br />
Toffler’s 1970 challenge of<br />
a fairer distribution of the<br />
wealth our new technologies<br />
produce.<br />
Certainly that is a huge<br />
challenge but perhaps the<br />
first step is to care and<br />
show compassion.<br />
•Do we as a society<br />
look down on the less<br />
fortunate to a point<br />
where it is too hard for<br />
them to get off the bottom<br />
rung? Share your<br />

Readers respond to a recent<br />
article about the city council<br />
not planning on upgrading the<br />
intersection of Breens, Gardiners<br />
and Harewood Rds in Bishopdale.<br />
They say:<br />
Sara Howes, of Bishopdale – I have<br />
just read the article in the Nor’West <strong>News</strong>.<br />
I can’t believe it. What time of the day<br />
did city council staff observe this intersection?<br />
As a resident of Gardiners Rd and<br />
therefore a regular user of the intersection<br />
at peak time it is diabolical and that’s being<br />
polite.<br />
Daily at peak time, people just charge<br />
straight through the intersection from the<br />
Breens Rd side failing to give way or either<br />
end up sitting in the middle of the road.<br />
It is out of control. I’ve even witnessed a<br />
GoBus doing this exact thing.<br />
The city council needs to step up and<br />
spend ratepayers money wisely, they put<br />
lights at the Sawyers Arms and Gardiners<br />
NOR’WEST NEWS<br />
Rds intersection and that had a lesser accident<br />
rate.<br />
Donna McLachlan, of Bishopdale –<br />
The results to this intersection problem<br />
are outrageous. Does someone have to die<br />
before things change?<br />
Traffic is the problem, people don’t follow<br />
the road rules at this corner making it<br />
dangerous for everyone.<br />
Cars stop at the stop sign on Breens Rd<br />
and think that it is okay to go straight<br />
through, while traffic is sitting in the middle<br />
of Harewood Rd waiting to turn right<br />
into Breens or Gardiners Rds.<br />
I have seen a lot of near misses and<br />
my husband was a witness to a bad accident<br />
where a man just pulled out into<br />
Harewood Rd hitting a female student’s<br />
car. He said he had been waiting too long<br />
to cross.<br />
I have noticed a decrease in traffic, I<br />
think people are avoiding the corner and<br />
going another way, I know I try to. I was<br />
really hoping something would have been<br />
done.<br />

Burke announces intention<br />
to run in Harewood Ward<br />
• By Andrew King<br />
THE HAREWOOD Ward<br />
now has three people set to vie<br />
for a seat, with Faimeh Burke<br />
throwing her hat into the ring<br />
for the upcoming city council<br />
election.<br />
Lady Burke originally said<br />
she would stand in the Waimairi<br />
Ward.<br />
However, she feels she can do<br />
more for her community in the<br />
Harewood Ward.<br />
She said part of the reason<br />
was because current city councillor<br />
Raf Manji was standing<br />
in the Waimairi Ward.<br />
“It was definitely a factor in<br />
my decision, but not the main<br />
one,” she said.<br />
Lady Burke said she had a<br />
strong bond with the area and<br />
felt it was the best ward for her<br />
to stand in.<br />
In the race for the Harewood<br />
seat, she will join Shirley-<br />
Papanui Community Board<br />
deputy chairman Aaron Keown<br />
and Stronger Christchurch Infrastructure<br />
and Rebuild Team<br />
value manager Rod Cameron.<br />
She has been a member of<br />
the Fendalton-Waimairi Community<br />
Board for the past <strong>12</strong><br />
YOU DECIDE: Faimeh Burke (left) will stand in the Harewood<br />
Ward in October’s city council election. Her competition<br />
so far will come from SCIRT value manager Rod Cameron<br />
(middle) and former city councillor Aaron Keown (right).<br />
years and said her passion and<br />
dedication to the area has not<br />
waived in the slightest.<br />
“I have close ties to community<br />
groups in this area and<br />
have pushed for a lot of change<br />
over my time on the board,” she<br />
said.<br />
Fellow board member and<br />
current city councillor Jamie<br />
Gough is also standing for reelection<br />
to the city council.<br />
Cr Gough will stand in the<br />
Fendalton Ward.<br />
BILINGUAL: Amiria and Matakaea Tikao helped supermarket<br />
customers celebrate Maori Language Week. <br />
Pupils teach Te Reo<br />
TWO PUPILS – one from Shirley<br />
Intermediate and the other from<br />
St Albans School – were the<br />
voices behind a supermarket<br />
initiative to celebrate Maori<br />
Language Week.<br />
Amiria Tikao, <strong>12</strong>, and her<br />
younger sister Matakaea, 9,<br />
had their voices professionally<br />
recorded in a sound studio to<br />
help SuperValue and FreshChoice<br />
customers better understand the<br />
Maori language.<br />
The sisters were recorded pronouncing<br />
items such as apples,<br />
mushrooms, fish, milk, meat,<br />
kiwifruit and cheese, along with<br />
many others.<br />
Amiria said it was a fun project<br />
to be involved with.<br />
“It was really cool. It took about<br />
45mins, so not very long . . . we<br />
got most of the words first time,<br />
which was good,” she said.<br />
Local SuperValue and Fresh-<br />

Cheaper swimming<br />
MOVIE<br />
ABOUT 1300 more children<br />
will be able to join Swim Safe<br />
classes thanks to a $40,000<br />
funding increase.<br />
The boost was approved by<br />
city council as part of its annual<br />
plan for <strong>2016</strong>/17.<br />
The funding will go towards<br />
the transport subsidy for children<br />
travelling by bus to city<br />
council swimming pools to take<br />
part in the programme.<br />
The city council also agreed<br />
to introduce a 25 per cent discount<br />
on entry fees to centres,<br />
such as Jellie Park Recreation<br />
and Sports Centre, for children<br />
of Community Services Card<br />
holders.<br />
The move aims to improve<br />
access to pools.<br />
The discount on entry fees<br />
will be introduced from October<br />
1.<br />
However, the child entry fee<br />
for swimming at council pools<br />
is due to increase from $3.10 to<br />
$3.50 in October. City council<br />
staff are investigating how the<br />
cost can be kept as low as possible.<br />
City council acting head of<br />
recreation and sports David<br />
Bailey said the extra funding<br />
would help make Swim Safe<br />
more accessible, particularly for<br />
students at low decile schools.<br />
CHEAPER ACCESS: The children of parents with a<br />
Community Services Card will be entitled to a 25 per cent<br />
discount on entry fees to facilities including Jellie Park<br />
Recreation and Sports Centre.<br />
“Swimsafe is our foundation<br />
programme that every single<br />
child in the city should have access<br />
to,” Mr Bailey said.<br />
Fendalton-Waimairi Community<br />
Board chairwoman Val<br />
Carter said water safety is a vital<br />
skill that all children should<br />
have.<br />
“As New Zealanders, we have<br />
a responsibility to teach our<br />
children how to swim,” she said.<br />
“I think it is a fantastic idea<br />
but children need to continue<br />
to build their swimming skills<br />
after these classes.”<br />
Ms Carter said the programme<br />
could tie in well with<br />
an incentive plan which the<br />
board had come up with to get<br />
people to use public transport,<br />
bike or walk to Jellie Park to<br />
reduce car parking issues.<br />
The board has suggested those<br />
who get to the facility without<br />
using a car should be eligible for<br />
discounts.<br />

discounts encourage you<br />

Financial boost for oral care<br />
$10,000<br />
donated<br />
to charity<br />

SMILES WILL get a bit<br />
brighter for those whose dental<br />
care is unaffordable with the<br />
contribution of $10,000 by the<br />
Harcourts Foundation to the<br />
Canterbury Charity Hospital.<br />
The funds will be used to<br />
expand the hospital’s current<br />
oral care facilities into a larger<br />
dental surgery on Harewood Rd<br />
in Bishopdale.<br />
Canterbury Charity Hospital<br />
founder and surgeon Phil Bagshaw<br />
said the new oral surgery<br />
would increase the number of<br />
procedures and provide better<br />
dental training and options for<br />
the community.<br />
“Because we receive no<br />
Government assistance we are<br />
totally reliant on the support<br />
of hundreds of volunteers and<br />
financial assistance is like gold<br />
to us,” Mr Bagshaw said.<br />

NOR’WEST NEWS<br />
Diving deep into new role as<br />
The Little Mermaid will be visiting The Court Theatre<br />
as part of her big above-sea experience. Played by<br />
Rebekah Head, she spoke to Georgia O’Connor-<br />
Harding about playing mythical Maori character<br />
Pania of the Reef’s mermaid grand-daughter, living<br />
out of a suitcase and what she hopes to do next.<br />
Hey Rebekah, how have the<br />
rehearsals been going?<br />
It has been a fast rehearsal<br />
process but it is a lot of fun and<br />
laughs. There are three actors.<br />
Unlike me, the other two actors<br />
get to do a lot of costume<br />
changes and swapping between<br />
other roles so I have the easy job<br />
in that sense.<br />
How come the little mermaid<br />
in this show is called PJ rather<br />
than the Princess Ariel we all<br />
know from Disney?<br />
The show, adapted by Alison<br />
Horsley, has incorporated the<br />
story of Pania of the Reef. There<br />
is a statue in Napier and she is<br />
part of Maori mythology. It is a<br />
New Zealand story. So PJ the<br />
mermaid is the grand-daughter<br />
of Pania of the Reef. It is definitely<br />
a more localised story.<br />
Have you grown up watching<br />
the Disney version of The Little<br />
Mermaid?<br />
EMERGING PERFORMER: Former NASDA student Rebekah<br />
Head is making her way in the performing arts industry in New<br />
Zealand.<br />
Definitely. Religiously.<br />
So how does it feel to be the<br />
mermaid of the show?<br />
It is very exciting and a bit<br />
nerve-racking because I think<br />
lots of people have The Little<br />
Mermaid in their head already. I<br />
am looking forward to creating<br />
my own version. Hopefully that<br />
is something people enjoy.<br />
How are you planning to portray<br />
yourself differently to The<br />
Little Mermaid we all know?<br />
Ariel was a large inspiration<br />
for the character but that is quite<br />
an American story so I have<br />
tried to make myself into more<br />
of a Kiwi mermaid. The wonderful<br />
work from the costume ladies<br />
has helped. The magnificent tails,<br />
with loads of sequins fellow actor<br />
Jane and I both wear, make it<br />
easy to take on the character.<br />
Following on from studying<br />
at Christchurch’s National<br />
Academy of Singing and Dramatic<br />
Art, are you performing<br />
full-time?<br />
I am trying to perform fulltime<br />
but it is a bit tricky because<br />
performing jobs only last<br />
a month or two. You rehearse<br />
them for two weeks and then<br />
perform them for two weeks. I<br />
have been moving around Auckland,<br />
Christchurch and Hawke’s<br />
Bay in the last few months with<br />
various kids shows. Last year, I<br />
toured around New Zealand and<br />
Australia for a few months with<br />
the New Zealand Playhouse.<br />
Would touring Australia be<br />
the main highlight since leaving<br />
NASDA?<br />
Definitely touring Australia for<br />
10 months was a highlight. It was<br />
a crazy experience – I saw a lot<br />
of cool places. We started in<br />
Brisbane and went all the way<br />
across to Perth. We drove all<br />
the way, too. We performed<br />
high school and primary school<br />
shows.<br />
Our show for high schools was<br />
an adaptation of the Importance<br />
of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde.<br />
Our primary school show was<br />
called Jack Flash and the Jumping<br />
Beanstalk. They were 50-minute<br />
shows and they were performed<br />
three times a day.<br />
Do you ever get tired of the<br />
performing lifestyle?<br />
No, but the performing lifestyle<br />
is a specific one. I feel like<br />
I have spent the last two years<br />
living out of a suitcase, which<br />
perhaps isn’t everybody’s lifestyle<br />
choice, but I love it and won’t be<br />
stopping any time soon.<br />
What was NASDA like because<br />
I hear it is tough?<br />
I think any performing school<br />
is tough. You learn a lot about<br />
yourself because it is a very vulnerable<br />
craft to be doing.<br />

ABOVE THE SEA:<br />
Rebekah will play<br />
the role of The Little<br />
Mermaid in the<br />
upcoming production at<br />
The Court Theatre.<br />
What did you learn<br />
about yourself?<br />
I suppose you learn how<br />
you behave as a person<br />
with other people when<br />
you are under a lot of<br />
pressure. There are quite<br />
a lot of time pressures at<br />
NASDA. A lot of creative<br />
art can’t be forced. You<br />
learn a lot when you are<br />
pushed to your limits.<br />
What do you enjoy<br />
about children’s shows<br />
compared to the other<br />
shows you have done?<br />
One of the most exciting<br />
things about children’s<br />
theatre is that children are<br />
the most honest audience<br />
members you are ever going<br />
to get. If they are not<br />
enjoying a show, they will<br />
let you know because they<br />
will start moving around.<br />
It is exciting hearing all the<br />
things yelled out as well.<br />
What do you think<br />
about the relaxed performance<br />
for children,<br />
including those with an<br />
Autism Spectrum Condition<br />
or learning disability?<br />
I think it is wonderful<br />
they are making this show<br />
accessible for people who<br />
wouldn’t feel comfortable<br />
bringing their children to<br />
the theatre. Children are<br />
always yelling out different<br />
things so I don’t think<br />
it would be too different<br />
for us.<br />
Tell me about the other<br />
performers in the show.<br />
In the Disney performance,<br />
Eric is known as<br />
the Prince. But in our<br />
show, Isaac Pawson is<br />
playing a character called<br />
Dylan. But I wouldn’t really<br />
call him a prince. It is<br />
a modern tale of The Little<br />
Mermaid. He is just a cool<br />
guy who lives in Christchurch.<br />
Jane Leonard will<br />
be playing Pania of the<br />
Reef and Pania’s evil sister<br />
Kelpie. Pania of the Reef is<br />
a New Zealand character<br />
but Kelpie the evil twin has<br />
more of a Cruella De Vil<br />
type of vibe.<br />
So what’s next?<br />
After this I am going to<br />
go travelling to Europe for<br />
a month. I am starting off<br />
in London and then going<br />
to Barcelona. I will be<br />
watching a lot of shows. I<br />
already have a lot booked at<br />
West End in London. I am<br />
going to Matilda The Musical,<br />
The Curious Incident of<br />
the Dog in the Night-Time,<br />
which The Court Theatre is<br />
doing next year.<br />
The Little Mermaid will<br />
run at The Court Theatre<br />
from <strong>July</strong> 13-23.<br />

TOP TEAM: The<br />
Submarines show<br />
beat Sumner School<br />
3-1 to take the year<br />
7 and 8 water polo<br />
competition. <br />
Submarines rise to<br />
top of competition<br />
BREENS Intermediate’s A<br />
grade water polo team, the<br />
Submarines, have won the year 7<br />
and 8 competition at Jellie Park<br />
Recreation and Sports Centre<br />
recently.<br />
The final was played between<br />
Breens and Sumner was the<br />
culmination of a term of tough<br />
competition in the pool.<br />
The teams were unable to be<br />
separated during round robin<br />
play as they battled to a 2-2 draw.<br />
However, Breens coach Jono<br />
Collins said the final was a different<br />
story.<br />
“Sumner scored first but this<br />
just seemed to energise the<br />
Submarines, showing heart and<br />
coming out on top in the end<br />
3-1,” he said.<br />
“Some outstanding work in<br />
goal by Blake Richards saw a<br />
number of shots repelled, while<br />
dominating the pool Piper<br />
Spencer and Aiden Carson kept<br />
the opposition at bay, with Aiden<br />
scoring all three goals.”<br />
The Submarines have been<br />
together for two terms now<br />
and things look bright as they<br />
work towards the South Island<br />
tournament in Dunedin later this<br />
year.<br />
THREE LITTLE PIGS: Room 2 pupils sung and danced their interpretation of for three little<br />

Fairy tales come to life<br />
HAREWOOD SCHOOL pupils<br />
performed at the Aurora Centre<br />
in Burnside to showcase what<br />
they had learnt in their literary<br />
study of fairy tales.<br />
One hundred and seventy<br />
two pupils were involved in the<br />
production called The Fairy Tale<br />
Fantasy and was written and<br />
directed by teachers Julie Argyle<br />
and Joanna Woods.<br />
School spokeswoman Angela<br />
Dini said the pupils focus during<br />
the term was dance and music<br />
and the classes worked hard<br />
towards integrating the two.<br />
“The synopsis of the story is<br />
children writing fairy tales as<br />
part of their literacy studies.<br />
They then had to gather information<br />
about what characteristics<br />
make a good fairy tale.<br />
“Then each class at the school<br />
chose a fairy tale and danced to<br />
the appropriate music,” she said.<br />
There were whole school songs<br />
in between each class dance.<br />
Seven year-old Lilly Carline<br />
was a huge fan of the night.<br />
“It was exciting that we got to<br />
WRITING:<br />
A teacher<br />
encouraging his<br />
class to write<br />
their fairy tales. <br />
perform on the stage,” she said.<br />
Ms Dini said all the children<br />
had a great time and the Aurora<br />
Centre was packed with parents,<br />
extended family and friends.<br />
Seven-year-old Emily Grins<br />
said she loved the colour and<br />
music.<br />
“I loved watching the other<br />
classes dance and sing,” she said.<br />

Trophies for musicians<br />
UNIFORM CHANGE: Rangi Ruru students were able to find out<br />
what it was like to be a St Kent’s girl for a day.<br />
Successful exchange<br />
for Rangi students<br />
Rangi Ruru Girls’ School students<br />
spent three days in Auckland as part<br />
of an exchange with St Kentigern<br />
Girls’ School.<br />
The year 7 and 8 students have<br />
recently returned after an actionpacked<br />
sport and cultural exchange.<br />
They participated in netball,<br />
basketball and indoor soccer against<br />
the St Kent girls foraging new<br />
friendships while battling on the<br />
court.<br />
They also shared a combined<br />
music performance, which was a<br />
unique opportunity to share their<br />
learning of the Sasa, a Samoan<br />
dance, which they taught to their<br />
new friends.<br />
The girls also experienced being<br />
a St Kent’s girl for the morning<br />
attending classes in mathematics,<br />
cooking and art.<br />
A school spokeswoman said the<br />
students learnt a lot during their<br />
time away.<br />
“It was a truly varied learning<br />
experience, full of personal growth<br />
and development,” she said.<br />
GRAZNYA’S GIRLZ: Sarah Lawrence, Victoria Park, Rachel<br />
McSweeney and Grace McKenzie.<br />
IT HAS been a hugely successful<br />
couple of weeks for Rangi Ruru<br />
Girls’ School music students.<br />
The school’s senior choir<br />
Resolutions won selection for<br />
the New Zealand Choral Federation<br />
Big Sing Finale.<br />
It is one of 24 schools that will<br />
attend the event in Dunedin in<br />
late August, and one of only four<br />
choirs from Christchurch.<br />
This follows two significant<br />
wins for Resolutions at the Big<br />
Sing regional competition in<br />
Christchurch, where they won<br />
best performance of a contemporary<br />
work and the award for<br />
the most outstanding recital<br />
from a girls’ choir.<br />
The school’s junior chorale<br />
was named joint winner of the<br />
most outstanding junior choir<br />
award at the same regional<br />
competition.<br />
Demonstrating incredible<br />
depth in music, Rangi Ruru<br />
also has two of only <strong>12</strong> groups<br />
selected for the national semifinals<br />
and finals of the NZCT<br />
Chamber Music Contest, to be<br />
held in Auckland early next<br />
month.<br />
Graznya’s Girlz and From<br />
Russia with Love secured their<br />
places after their selection for<br />
the South Island regional finals.<br />
Graznya’s Girlz, made up of<br />
Grace McKenzie, Sarah Lawrence,<br />
Victoria Park and Rachel<br />
McSweeney, won the district<br />
contest, along with the University<br />
of Canterbury Trophy for<br />
the Best Performance, and then<br />
went on to win the South Island<br />
regional finals.<br />
From Russia with Love, made<br />
up of Grace McKenzie on<br />
violin, Karen Hu on the cello<br />
and Isabella Gregory on piano,<br />
were highly commended in the<br />
district contest and also a South<br />
Island regional finalist.<br />
In addition Vietz, made up of<br />
Lucy Costelloe on violin, Anna<br />
Bruce on the cello and Jessie<br />
Anderson on piano won the<br />
adjudicators’ choice award at the<br />
district contest and were bronze<br />
award winners at the South<br />
Island regional finals.<br />
As well as these national<br />
selections, six girls in year 7 and<br />
8 have been selected to perform<br />
in the Christchurch Schools’<br />
Music Festival special groups –<br />
four in the orchestra, one in the<br />
concert band, and one in the<br />
senior choir.<br />
All year 7 and 8 girls will sing<br />
in the massed choir on the final<br />
night of the Festival, which runs<br />
October 26-28 at the Horncastle<br />
Arena.<br />
MATT DOOCEY<br />

CHAT WITH MATT<br />
I look forward to meeting you on<br />
Thursday, 14 <strong>July</strong>, from 7pm to 8pm,<br />
at the Belfast Rugby Club at my<br />
Keeping Connected Evening meeting.<br />
It’s about keeping connected through<br />
these night meetings, my caravan<br />
clinics or just living and working in<br />
the electorate with my family. Please<br />
drop in and take part.<br />
I enjoyed speaking at the Belfast<br />
Residents’ Association’s monthly<br />
meeting. The group are working hard<br />
to create a strong community and<br />
it was good to hear from them and<br />
explore ways we can work together.<br />
Forty students and a lot of<br />
questions were the order of the day<br />
when 40 students from Casebrook<br />
Intermediate recently took over my<br />
Parliamentary office during a visit to<br />
Parliament. The students attended<br />
Question Time before descending on<br />
my office for juice, fruit and biscuits.<br />
I arranged for Hon Nicky Wagner,<br />
Minister of Customs, to visit and<br />
there were lots of questions about<br />
Customs and the work to stop crime<br />
at our borders.<br />
A productive meeting I facilitated<br />
for Casebrook residents with<br />
representatives from a range of<br />
agencies at the Papanui Club proved<br />
the value of working together. I am<br />
happy to assist in your area with any<br />
issue.<br />
Budget 16 and what’s in it to help<br />
local businesses is the focus of a visit<br />
by the Deputy Prime Minister when I<br />
host him in the electorate this month.<br />
I have arranged this visit to inform<br />
our local businesses on these new<br />
changes.<br />
Chatting to our over 65s in Belfast<br />
on Monday at my Super Seniors<br />
coffee morning once again resulted in<br />
some interesting issues being raised.<br />
I value these opportunities to hear<br />
from our seniors.<br />

ACHIEVERS<br />
HIGH ACHIEVER: Casebrook Intermediate’s Ella Mitchell (left) has been described as an<br />
exceptional leader, while Scott Janet, of St Andrew’s College, received an award for his fine<br />
qualities.<br />
Natural young leaders<br />
• By Andrew King<br />
SIX PILLARS of the north-west<br />
youth community have been<br />
honoured with Sir Peter Blake<br />
Young Leader Awards.<br />
This year’s nominations<br />
included stories of exceptional<br />
young leaders, talented Kapa<br />
Haka performers and students<br />
who volunteered their time to<br />
community groups.<br />
Scott Janet, of St Andrew’s<br />
College; Krissy Epton, of Rangi<br />
Ruru Girls’ School; Pippa Gutry,<br />
of Paparoa Street School; Ella<br />
Mitchell, of Casebrook Intermediate;<br />
Jared Talenoa, of Breens<br />
Intermediate; and Hugh Fergusson,<br />
of Belfast School, all received<br />
awards.<br />
All six were noted for their<br />
natural ability to inspire those<br />
around them and bring out the<br />
best in their fellow students and<br />
themselves.<br />
Sir Peter Blake Trust chief<br />
executive Shelley Campbell said<br />
the awards aimed to nurture and<br />
celebrate leadership in young<br />
people.<br />
“The qualities these children<br />
display – humility, humour, inclusiveness,<br />
positivity and a team<br />
approach – were all shown by Sir<br />
Peter himself,” she said.<br />
The awards span 460 schools<br />
from Northland to Bluff and<br />
celebrate year 5 to 8 leaders.<br />
GOOD SORT: Papanui Primary School has given a shout-out<br />
to one of its fantastic volunteers, Carol Watson. Ms Watson<br />
has deep roots with the school, which was attended by<br />
her grandchildren and now her great grandchildren. Office<br />
administrator Lisa Brunel said she was a fantastic volunteer,<br />
who is always happy to give up her time. “From a regular slot on<br />
road patrol duty to taking reading groups, one on one reading,<br />
helping out in the classroom, testing spelling words, and<br />
assisting on class trips, she is a lovely person,” she said. “She is<br />
very positive, caring and always willing to help out with anything<br />
and everything. We are so grateful for everything she does for<br />
the pupils and school and we feel very lucky to have her.”<br />

Rent, renovate or redevelop? This<br />
property could be your lucky ticket,<br />
with its mouthwatering array of<br />
opportunities for the savvy investor.<br />
Situated on a superb 1004sqm freehold corner<br />
site with a blue chip Fendalton address, the<br />
upside of this house and land couldn’t be sweeter.<br />
The substantial character home is presented in<br />
very tidy condition. Two generous living areas<br />
boast wood panelling and lead lights to excite the<br />
character lover, while the roomy separate kitchen<br />
is perfectly functional, but ripe for updating.<br />
There are four good bedrooms, and the bathroom<br />
is fresh and neat with a separate shower. A heat<br />
pump and log burner will keep family or tenants<br />
cosy. Outside, the section is fully fenced with a<br />
single garage and established gardens.<br />
Breathing new life into the home would be<br />
an enticing project, but others will be drawn<br />
to the possibilities presented by renting out the<br />
property while developing plans for a new build<br />
on the site. There is possibly even the potential<br />
to subdivide. Whichever way you look at it, the<br />
value is underpinned by a top location, in zone<br />
for Fendalton School, Boys’ High and Girls’ High.<br />

Grass roots rugby league in the north-west is looking strong with both under-6 Papanui<br />
teams winning their games recently. Papanui Orange had a solid 22-16 win over the Woolston<br />
Rams, while Papanui Black beat Linwood Green 40-26. Both Papanui teams trained together<br />
but then split off into their respective sides. Papanui Black’s Kingston Donnelly now tops the<br />
try scoring table with 27 four pointers with seven rounds still to play. He has amassed 118<br />
points while Orange player Jonah Teokotai nips at his heels with 92 points for the season.<br />
Orange is sitting second on the table with Black occupying third position. The Hornby<br />
Panthers are currently sitting top of the under-6 table. •More sport page 18<br />

ST ANDREW’S College has<br />
re-ignited their finals hopes in<br />
this year’s UC Championship<br />
going into the school holidays.<br />
A 23-<strong>12</strong> win over Burnside<br />
High School has moved STAC<br />
to sixth in the championship.<br />
With four rounds remaining<br />
in the competition, STAC went<br />
into Saturday’s game five points<br />
outside of the top four.<br />
STAC hosted Burnside which<br />
occupied fifth in the competition<br />
and had the opportunity<br />
to separate themselves from the<br />
chasing pack.<br />
Wins for third and fourth<br />
placed Shirley Boys’ High<br />
School and Nelson College at<br />
the weekend means that STAC<br />
will have to finish strong.<br />
It won’t be easy with two<br />
challenging away games to end<br />
the round robin.<br />
STAC will host bottom of<br />
the table Roncalli when the UC<br />
Championship resumes next<br />
weekend.<br />
They then face competition<br />
favourites Christchurch Boys’<br />
High School in their penultimate<br />
game before a final round<br />
match with top of the table<br />
Christ’s College.<br />

FLAME FILES<br />
Look while you cook<br />
• By Mark Thomas – Fire Risk<br />
Management Officer<br />
I’VE SPENT much of the last<br />
week in the North Island.<br />
Firstly in Rotorua, where I visited<br />
the New Zealand Fire Service<br />
training facility for the first time.<br />
It is one extremely impressive<br />
complex, with full a number of<br />
buildings providing scenarios for<br />
training from cars to houses to<br />
commercial buildings, aircraft<br />
and ships.<br />
It’s a quantum leap from the<br />
bare concrete yard and tower that<br />
sufficed 35 years ago.<br />
While I was away, fire crews attended<br />
the normal range of incidents<br />
including, un-surprisingly,<br />
four kitchen fires.<br />
These ranged from an<br />
overcooked chicken breast in<br />
Dallington to a full house fire in<br />
Barbadoes St last Friday.<br />
I almost despair that the message,<br />
‘keep looking while you’re<br />
NOR’WEST NEWS<br />
cooking’ continues to be ignored<br />
by many in our community.<br />
The result can be life shattering.<br />
One of the features of fine days<br />
at this time of year is that the sun<br />
travels low in the sky.<br />
This provided a shock for the<br />
owner of a house in Hillmorton<br />
returning home just before 5pm<br />
on Tuesday.<br />
She found two cushions quietly<br />
smouldering away in her lounge.<br />
The setting sun was reflecting<br />
perfectly from a small concave<br />
mirror on to the couch.<br />
In this case she was lucky.<br />
She came home just in time.<br />
Electric fans today have an<br />
oscillating feature that widens the<br />
dispersal of air.<br />
A fan against a wall that<br />
prevented this movement in St<br />
Martins last week was found to be<br />
overheating. Again just in time.<br />
But another thing that can ruin<br />
your life.<br />

HEALTH & BEAUTY<br />
Tattoo removal specialists<br />
offer discreet professional service<br />
The TaTToo Removal Company is the first in Christchurch to<br />
specialise in the removal of tattoos, and removing clients’ unwanted<br />
tattoos is their sole focus.<br />
NOR’WEST NEWS<br />
This family business has three<br />
technicians, male and female, who have<br />
undergone extensive training and are<br />
committed to ongoing professional<br />
training to maintain their skills. Coming<br />
from beauty, hairdressing and hospitality<br />
backgrounds, they love working with<br />
people and providing a friendly and totally<br />
professional service.<br />
for whatever reason you wish to remove<br />
your tattoo, the technicians provide a fast,<br />
effective, confidential and unprejudiced<br />
service in an exclusive, private environment.<br />
Whether you are having a full tattoo<br />
removal or lightening a tattoo for a cover-up<br />
with new art, during the initial consultation<br />
your technician will take the time to fully<br />
understand your needs, relevant medical<br />
history and the history of the tattoo in<br />
question so that you get the best service<br />
possible.<br />
The q-switch laser the technicians use<br />
removes tattoos effectively. The laser emits<br />
short, nanosecond energy pulses that<br />
penetrate the tissue and shatter particles of<br />
ink pigment into fragments, which are then<br />
eliminated via the lymphatic system.<br />
While there may be some slight discomfort,<br />
it is very brief. however, ice packs and<br />
numbing cream can be provided if required.<br />
Before<br />
After<br />
Treatment and the number of sessions<br />
required vary depending on skin type,<br />
quality of tattoo and desired outcome,<br />
with six weeks needed between treatment<br />
sessions.<br />
for women who have had marks made on<br />
their skin during breast cancer treatment,<br />
the Tattoo Removal Company will remove<br />
these at no cost.<br />
The tattoo removal service is available seven<br />
days a week from 6am-10pm at the merivale<br />
clinic, 33 springfield Road. mention this<br />
advertisement and you are entitled to a<br />
17 per cent discount off the first three<br />
treatments.<br />

Customer testimonial<br />
“Coming from a professional work<br />
environment i was very conscious about<br />
keeping a business image. although at the<br />
time i had it done i thought it was amazing,<br />
my tattoo has now become a part of me that<br />
i hide. i had always wondered about getting<br />
it removed but thought it would be too<br />
expensive and painful.<br />
The Tattoo Removal Company has made<br />
this process very easy for me. Not only is<br />
the removal affordable it is no more painful<br />
than when i put it on. after one treatment<br />
the results were amazing and i highly<br />
recommend The Tattoo Removal Company<br />
– great service, great results.” - Jackie henry,<br />
licensed Real estate agent<br />

remove your tattoo, the technicians<br />

HealTH & BeauTY<br />
Keeping TracK<br />
Of YOur HealTH<br />
Lets take a look at the new fitness sensation Fitbit. What is it and<br />
how does it work? Most importantly,<br />
how do we incorporate it into our fitness regime?<br />
Fitbit consists of a family of products<br />
designed to track every part of your day<br />
– including activity, exercise, food, weight<br />
and sleep – to help you stay motivated,<br />
and see how small steps make a big<br />
impact. There’s something for every taste,<br />
budget and technical requirement from<br />
the everyday category of wrist bands to<br />
performance-specific watches.<br />
All Fitbit products track steps, distance,<br />
calories burned and active minutes. All<br />
but the most basic Fitbit also track sleep<br />
patterns. At the performance end of the<br />
range you’ll also have access to things<br />
like heart rate and GPS tracking. All of<br />
the products feature wireless syncing and<br />
online and mobile tools, such as the Fitbit<br />
app to help track your exercise, sleep,<br />
hydration and food, and connect with<br />
friends.<br />
Seeing your progress can really help<br />
you realise what’s possible, and investing<br />
in a Fitbit may help to take you on the<br />
next step of your health and fitness<br />
journey.<br />
Fitbit was built on the premise that<br />
fitness is not just about gym time; it’s<br />
about all the time. So, it can be a great<br />
addition to your fitness regime.<br />
There are many things to consider when choosing a<br />
health and fitness regime to follow through with.<br />
for example:<br />
• What type of exercise to choose: indoor, outdoor or a mixture of both? Running, walking,<br />
cycling, swimming, yoga, pilates, dancing, group fitness, a team sport, or something else?<br />
• Who to exercise with: just yourself, with a buddy, in a group, or to enlist the help of a<br />
personal trainer?<br />
• What nutrition guidelines to follow: enlist the help of a nutritionist, or just cut back on<br />
processed food, for example?<br />
• Balance: how will you ensure you get a good balance of enough rest and recovery as well as<br />
the right frequency, duration and intensity of exercise?<br />
• Motivation: how will you motivate yourself to get out the door in the first place?!<br />
Professional advice from a registered exercise professional should always be your first port<br />
of call. They can help get you set up with an appropriate personalised programme, help you<br />
with exercise techniques, and help you stay accountable to your goals.<br />
Once you’re in the swing of things you may find you want some extra assistance to ramp<br />
up your progress towards your goals. investing in a Fitbit could help you to achieve this,<br />
especially if you’re a ‘details’ person who likes to be well organised and able to measure<br />
progress from<br />
each and every workout. Similarly, if you find you’re in a bit of a rut and could do with a<br />
mini accountability ‘buddy’, then a Fitbit could be<br />
just the ticket.<br />

Winning ticket on Tui<br />
40 Tui Street, Fendalton<br />
Auction: 28 <strong>July</strong> <strong>2016</strong> unless sold prior<br />
4 bedrooms | 1 bathroom | 1 toilet | 2 living room | 1 car garage | Listing #: PI55813<br />
Rent, renovate or redevelop? This<br />
property could be your lucky ticket,<br />
with its mouthwatering array of<br />
opportunities for the savvy investor.<br />
Situated on a superb 1004sqm freehold corner<br />
site with a blue chip Fendalton address, the<br />
upside of this house and land couldn’t be sweeter.<br />
The substantial character home is presented in<br />
very tidy condition. Two generous living areas<br />
boast wood panelling and lead lights to excite the<br />
character lover, while the roomy separate kitchen<br />
is perfectly functional, but ripe for updating.<br />
There are four good bedrooms, and the bathroom<br />
is fresh and neat with a separate shower. A heat<br />
pump and log burner will keep family or tenants<br />
cosy. Outside, the section is fully fenced with a<br />
single garage and established gardens.<br />
Breathing new life into the home would be<br />
an enticing project, but others will be drawn<br />
to the possibilities presented by renting out the<br />
property while developing plans for a new build<br />
on the site. There is possibly even the potential<br />
to subdivide. Whichever way you look at it, the<br />
value is underpinned by a top location, in zone<br />
for Fendalton School, Boys’ High and Girls’ High.<br />
You’ve got to be in to win, so contact us today<br />
to find out more!<br />
