Decision over<br />
BP expansion<br />
next week<br />
Catwalk ready<br />
• By Andrew King<br />
ST ALBANS residents trying to<br />
stop the expansion of a petrol<br />
station will know next Thursday<br />
whether they have been<br />
successful.<br />
The group was expecting<br />
to find out on Friday if the<br />
resource consent BP Oil had<br />
applied for had been approved<br />
after the hearing was held last<br />
month.<br />
But there was a delay to the<br />
official closure of the hearing,<br />
after commissioner David<br />
Mountfort said he needed<br />
additional information about<br />
the application. This meant the<br />
decision is now not expected<br />
until next Thursday.<br />
BP has bought two sections<br />
next to the service station on<br />
the corner of Edgeware Rd and<br />
Cranford St, and plans to build a<br />
bigger forecourt and shop there.<br />
If the consent is granted it will<br />
add four pumps with 12 more<br />
car parks.<br />
Resident Rob Hull said while<br />
he was disappointed, residents<br />
had not been notified of the delay,<br />
it was not surprising. He said<br />
residents had been “kept in the<br />
dark” about most of the process.<br />
“The communication has been<br />
shocking,” he said.<br />
A city council spokeswoman<br />
said the city council is not<br />
obliged to inform the submitters<br />
when the commissioner has<br />
closed the hearing.<br />
As the consent was only<br />
limited notification, only two<br />
residents were able to speak<br />
at the hearing, however, they<br />
submitted a petition with 37<br />
signatures on it, opposing the<br />
expansion.<br />

Mr Mountfort asked the<br />
city council to present a more<br />

Mr Hull said residents were<br />
concerned on the weekend when<br />
they saw construction fencing<br />
going up around property BP<br />
has bought to expand.<br />

Kano said he just wanted the<br />
outcome to be known in a<br />

Bank closure would be ‘huge loss’<br />
• By Andrew King<br />
RESIDENTS ARE fighting<br />
the potential closure of the<br />
Bishopdale Westpac branch by<br />
starting a petition.<br />
The Bishopdale and Fendalton<br />
Westpac branches are two of 19<br />
around the country that could<br />
be closed due to the rise in online<br />
transactions.<br />
But Bishopdale residents are<br />
fighting the closure because they<br />
say it needed in the area, especially<br />
among older people.<br />
According to a statement<br />
released by Westpac the closure<br />
is because 85 per cent of service<br />
transactions are not done at<br />
banks.<br />
Bishopdale Centre<br />
Association secretary Jenny<br />
Haig said the suburb has been<br />
labelled as a “rejuvenation<br />
area” by the city council so not<br />
having basic amenities seems<br />
strange.<br />
“People are not happy and<br />
the customers are quite<br />
passionate about having a<br />
branch here. They are killing it,”<br />
she said.<br />
“The access is good, there is<br />
great parking and a lot of businesses<br />
bank here.”<br />
Bishopdale Community Trust<br />
UNHAPPY: Residents around Bishopdale band together to try stop the closure of their local<br />
branch. The Bishopdale and Fendalton Westpac branches are two of 19 around the country<br />
that could be closed due to the rise in online transactions. PHOTO: ANNABELLE DICK<br />
development worker Tania<br />
Smith said it will not only<br />
affect elderly people in Bishopdale<br />
but businesses who use the<br />
branch to doing their banking<br />
as well.<br />
Meanwhile, Hamilton Ave<br />
Residents Association chairman<br />
Doug Archbold said losing<br />
Westpac bank was another blow<br />
to the Fendalton community, after<br />
the Kiwibank and PostShop<br />
closed in December and moved<br />
to the Fendalton Library and<br />
Service Centre.<br />
“There is surprise and concern<br />
from the elderly, who are not<br />
that technologically-savvy,” he<br />
said.<br />
Mr Archbold believes they<br />
would not just start using the<br />
internet because their bank<br />
moved, they would have to go<br />
further to find another branch<br />
that could accommodate their<br />
needs.<br />
Westpac media adviser Hilary<br />
Marett said they would not be<br />
making any comment while the<br />
consultation process is under<br />
way.<br />
HAVE YOUR SAY: Is there<br />
still a need for bank<br />
buildings or can everything<br />
be done online meaning<br />
less need for a branch?<br />

In Brief<br />
SPA CLOSED<br />
Jellie Park Recreation and Sport<br />
Centre’s spa will remain closed<br />
for the next one to two weeks<br />
after receiving a positive test<br />
result for Legionella bacterium<br />
from the Canterbury District<br />
Health Board. As an additional<br />
precaution, spa pools at the<br />
Pioneer and Graham Condon<br />
Recreation and Sport Centres will<br />
be super-chlorinated and tested.<br />
REDUCED SPEED<br />
Papanui Rd has a reduced speed<br />
limit to 30km/h between Innes Rd<br />
and Bealey Ave until September<br />
30. The reduction is due to trenchwork<br />
being carried out. The lanes<br />
have also been shifted, but both<br />
remain open, to accommodate the<br />
work. Delays can be expected.<br />

Anti-fluoridation argument<br />
doesn’t ‘hold much water’<br />
Nick King<br />
responds to<br />
last week’s<br />
opinion piece<br />
by John<br />
Verd about<br />
the dangers<br />
of water<br />
fluoridation<br />
in Christchurch<br />
With respect John, I think<br />
your passion for the well-being<br />
of others is admirable but, in this<br />
case, misguided.<br />
To suffer a ‘toxic dose’ of<br />
fluoride, at the current safe and<br />
recommended level you’d have to<br />
guzzle 25 gallons of water. You’d<br />
die from hyperhydration first.<br />
Sola dosis facit venenum – the<br />
dose makes the poison.<br />
You quote Hirzy and Connett<br />
as if that adds weight to the antifluoride<br />
argument.<br />
They are not respected in their<br />
field, nor do they speak for the<br />
(United States) Environmental<br />
Protection Agency. And they’re<br />
at odds with their peers and<br />
mountains of research.<br />
I suspect these ‘studies’ are the<br />
well-known ‘Chinese studies’,<br />
popular among conspiracy theorists<br />
and widely discredited. Fifty<br />
poor studies versus thousands<br />
of more robust studies does not<br />
make a solid case.<br />
The Chinese studies fail to<br />
acknowledge the higher than recommended<br />
levels of fluoride and<br />
other chemicals (also other factors<br />
that may contribute to lower<br />
IQ), including arsenic and iodine<br />
– iodine being a good example<br />
of “beneficial in small doses,<br />
dangerous in higher doses”.<br />
The dose makes the poison.<br />
Even if it is a by-product of an<br />
industrial process, so what? Lots<br />
of things are. We call it recycling.<br />
It’s safe at the levels required to<br />
be beneficial to teeth.<br />
Sure, it might be classed as<br />
a hazardous product which, of<br />
course, it will be if you’re counting<br />
it by the truck load.<br />
Hydrochloric acid is highly<br />
corrosive, but is also produced<br />
naturally by your own body.<br />
There’s arsenic in rice.<br />
The dose makes the poison.<br />
I’m all for questioning and<br />
challenging the status-quo –<br />
things go stale if we don’t.<br />
But scaring people with<br />
sciencey-sounding rhetoric isn’t<br />
very helpful, even if your intentions<br />
are good.<br />
I too have my own reservations<br />
about this situation because of<br />
Christchurch’s reputation for<br />
amazing water, and I have an<br />
emotional attachment to that.<br />
But the points you covered just<br />
don’t hold much water (pun<br />
intended) and are potentially<br />
unnecessarily scary for people.<br />
Readers respond to last<br />
week’s opinion piece<br />
by John Verd about<br />
fluoridated water<br />
Pam Webber, Middleton<br />
I agree with you. (It’s)<br />
abhorrent that they intend<br />
ruining our beautiful<br />
Christchurch water. Keep up the<br />
good work.<br />
Ian Orchard, Papanui<br />
I won’t be losing sleep over<br />
the possibility of fluoridated<br />
water until I get some more<br />
details which John Verd<br />
omitted. The somewhat<br />
breathless revelation that<br />
hydrofluorosilicic acid (more<br />
properly Hexafluorosilicic acid)<br />
is a by-product of the fertiliser<br />
industry isn’t particularly<br />
relevant. Like sausages, lots<br />
of ingredients in food come<br />
from pathways that we prefer<br />
not to know about, without<br />
being in any way hazardous.<br />
On the other hand, plenty of<br />
ingredients can be dangerous<br />
in the wrong concentrations.<br />
Sodium chloride and<br />
dihydrogen oxide are two classic<br />
examples. Sodium bicarbonate,<br />
frequently recommended for<br />
tough cleaning jobs, is also an<br />
essential ingredient in cakes.<br />
John makes no mention of the<br />
concentration of fluoride ions<br />
in treated water. The WTO<br />
recommends 1mg/l or one<br />
part per million, hardly a toxic<br />
NOR’WEST NEWS<br />
dose for a mineral that doesn’t<br />
accumulate in the body. He also<br />
omits to mention the ‘elevated’<br />
levels of fluorine required to<br />
cause reduced IQ, or whether<br />
association is actual causation,<br />
or if any of the 50 studies had<br />
survived peer review? It’s much<br />
easier to scaremonger if you<br />
leave out any details that might<br />
counter your beliefs.<br />
A reader responds to<br />
a recent article about<br />
construction of the new<br />
Northern Corridor project<br />
Peter Reid – Bishopdale<br />
Good about the pedestrian<br />
and cycleway. I presume it will<br />
take the same form as the one<br />
alongside QE II. Seems odd to<br />
have a third lane north over the<br />
Waimakariri, but not south. It<br />
will ease congestion a bit and,<br />
for a while, for rush hour motorists<br />
coming into the city until<br />
numbers increase and congestion<br />
gets back to present levels. Not<br />
that I’m against the project. I left<br />
Christchurch in 1969, a few years<br />
after the original motorway was<br />
done. When I returned in 1986, I<br />
was very disappointed to find an<br />
extension hadn’t been done to the<br />
east of Belfast into the city. Have<br />
they ditched that silly extra exit<br />
off QE II in the vicinity of Hills<br />
Rd through a park and across to<br />
Innes Rd, or somewhere there,<br />
that was proposed a couple of<br />
years ago?<br />

Proposed resident parking<br />
scheme moves up a gear<br />
• By Andrew King<br />
RESIDENTS ARE closer to<br />
getting permits that will allow<br />
them to park on their own street<br />
overriding any time restrictions.<br />
The Fendalton-Waimairi<br />
Community Board and city<br />
councillor Jamie Gough want to<br />
introduce permits so residents<br />
can park in their street exempt<br />
from restricted time constraints.<br />
The board recommended city<br />
council staff arrange a briefing<br />
where resident permits can be<br />
explored and potential solutions<br />
found.<br />
The recommendation was<br />
adopted by the city council at a<br />
recent meeting.<br />
“Parking restrictions are<br />
a necessary evil to promote<br />
vehicle turnover in busy areas.<br />
But the point of them is not to<br />
punish the residents that need to<br />
park in front of their own house<br />
for longer than the restricted<br />
time period,” Cr Gough said.<br />
“I think there’s a better way,<br />
and it’s pretty straight-forward,”<br />
he said.<br />
The permit would over rule<br />
any parking restrictions on the<br />
street outside their property.<br />
Russley resident Ken Legat<br />
said the permit was a fantastic<br />
idea that will start to give<br />
residents the freedom to park<br />
outside their properties.<br />
“Parking is a big problem,<br />
especially for us with the<br />
inclusion of the Airport Business<br />
Park and its employees needing<br />
a space to park near their work,”<br />
he said.<br />
The permits would be similar<br />
to the contractor parking<br />
permits Cr Gough campaigned<br />
for on behalf of a Holmwood Rd<br />
resident.<br />
They allow contractors to<br />
park exempt from restrictions<br />
in suburban streets. That idea is<br />
now being trialled for the next<br />
10 months.<br />
HAVE YOUR SAY: Does the<br />
city council need to bring<br />

SCIRT programme on the home straight<br />
SCIRT’s five year programme of repairs to pipes, roads, bridges and retaining walls is<br />
almost complete and will finish in December.<br />
Most of our repairs involve fixing the city’s underground pipe networks with only small<br />
amount of our work focused on roads.<br />
Our roading work largely involves fixing where we have dug down to repair and replace<br />
the earthquake damaged pipes beneath. The result may look a little patchy but we repair<br />
roads to a reliable and serviceable standard.<br />
The City Council and NZ Transport Agency will continue completing ongoing repairs to the<br />
city's earthquake-damaged roads after SCIRT.<br />
Progress in your neighbourhood<br />
• Fixing the Northern Relief, one of Christchurch’s biggest wastewater pipes running<br />
through Fendalton, Merivale and St Albans is more than halfway through and will be<br />
completed at the end of the year.<br />
• Essential wastewater repairs in Aikmans Road in Merivale have begun and will be<br />
completed at the end of the year.<br />
• Ongoing repairs to the wastewater networks in Fendalton, Strowan, Papanui and<br />
Bryndwr are due to finish next month.<br />
• Your support is helping us to get the job done, thank you from the SCIRT team.<br />

Pupils release eels to mark<br />
creek transformation<br />
IT WAS a slippery winter<br />
morning in Christchurch – but<br />
not in the way you’d expect.<br />
Pupils from Tuahiwi School<br />
released eels and planted trees to<br />
celebrate the successful realignment<br />
of the Kā Pūtahi Creek.<br />
Rich with native life, the creek<br />
area in Belfast has been the beneficiary<br />
of the upcoming creation<br />
of the Northern Corridor<br />
roading system.<br />
The realignment has been<br />
carried out by the city council to<br />
allow the corridor, which begins<br />
construction in October, to pass<br />
over the Kā Pūtahi without the<br />
need to obstruct the creek with<br />
the creation of special culverts.<br />
City council head of transport<br />
Chris Gregory said big transport<br />
developments like this often led<br />
to unexpected benefits on the<br />
side.<br />
“In this case, the Northern<br />
Corridor project has given the<br />
city council the perfect opportunity<br />
to create two hectares of<br />
native forest and riparian planting,”<br />
he said.<br />
“Importantly, the realignment<br />
of the stream means that both<br />
people and wildlife will be able<br />
to move up and down the stream<br />
corridor freely, without any barriers<br />
created by the motorway<br />
NEW DIRECTION: A Belfast creek has benefited from the<br />
Northern Corridor roading project. <br />
and culverts.”<br />
Planning for the realignment<br />
began in 2013 and was approved<br />
by the city council in <strong>August</strong><br />
2015.<br />
Construction began in<br />
January <strong>2016</strong>, with contractors<br />
Grounds & Services Ltd able<br />
to complete the work ahead of<br />
schedule.<br />
In securing a viable spring-fed<br />
river ecosystem and a sourceto-sea<br />
experience through the<br />
continuation of the urban reserve<br />
network and walkway, the<br />
project has been an important<br />
step in achieving the Styx Vision<br />
2000-2040.<br />
PROGRESS: Harcourts Holmwood owners Tony Jenkins and<br />
Lynne MacDonald outside the business’s old premises which<br />
will make way for a new building. <br />
New headquarters for<br />
Harcourts Holmwood<br />
HARCOURTS Holmwood is<br />
preparing for a new era with the<br />
demolition of its quake-damaged<br />
head office.<br />
More than five years on from<br />
the earthquakes, the damaged<br />
building at 397 Ilam Rd will<br />
make way for a new state-of-the<br />
art premises.<br />
Owners Tony Jenkins and<br />
Lynne MacDonald said it was<br />
incredibly satisfying to see work<br />
underway on the site after several<br />
years of evaluation and planning.<br />
The new building will be the<br />
flagship premises for Harcourts<br />
Holmwood, which operates seven<br />
offices throughout Christchurch,<br />
as well as in Invercargill<br />
and Gore.<br />
It’s been designed to cater for<br />
all aspects of the business’s real<br />
estate service, including a new<br />
on-site auction room and adjoining<br />
cafe.<br />
The business will operate<br />
out of 142 Sherborne Street, St<br />
Albans, during construction.<br />

Our People<br />
NOR’WEST NEWS<br />
Snowboarding and modelling<br />
Anneke Stewart is an artist who has spent years<br />
travelling and adventure-seeking. Reporter<br />
Annabelle Dick spoke to her about what it was<br />
like growing up on a deer farm, modelling for one<br />
of New Zealand’s biggest designers and how she<br />
impressed some of Europe’s most well-known<br />
graffiti artists<br />
You are an artist by trade, can<br />
you tell me about your art and<br />
your career?<br />
I exhibit at least once or twice<br />
a year, I’m always producing<br />
artwork. I produce in about<br />
10 different mediums quite<br />
prolifically. The style is very much<br />
cohesive throughout my work.<br />
I’m into reclaimed objects<br />
and keeping the integrity of a<br />
material. My approach to what<br />
I do is consciously create and<br />
honour where we come from and<br />
where our materials come from.<br />
I believe we’re here to look after<br />
this beautiful planet. I’m a Reiki<br />
master which is like an energy<br />
healer so I’m very sensitive to<br />
energy and energy patterns.<br />
I love what I do. Art is not<br />
something I do, it’s who I am and<br />
there’s no separation between the<br />
two. It’s like breathing I have to<br />
do it in order to feel normal.<br />
What are you working on at<br />
the moment?<br />
I’m currently working on<br />
more products and print media<br />
on paper so I can make my<br />
work more accessible. I’ve<br />
just completed the largest<br />
commission of my career so<br />
far for the Deloitte building in<br />
the city centre. It’s a lenticular<br />
lightbox which is an animated<br />
3D-type medium so the images<br />
change when you walk past.<br />
I’m trying to keep my fine art<br />
and commercial art separate. On<br />
a weekly basis I do art classes<br />
where I teach a handful of<br />
students – hopefully, by next year<br />
I can have more classes. I want<br />
to start adult classes next month<br />
too. I’m also doing a piece for the<br />
BMX park over in New Brighton<br />
in spring.<br />
Tell me about you family.<br />
My father was a deer farmer<br />
and my mother has always<br />
worked in fashion. When I was in<br />
school she sold Pieter’s Modelling<br />
Agency which is now Portfolio<br />
CREATIVE: Anneke Stewart with one of her creations.<br />
Model Agency. Then a few years She’s very down to earth, a hard<br />
later she started New Zealand worker and she’s quite shy. She<br />
Fashion Week.<br />
loves to cook and hates shopping.<br />
I’ve always grown up with a That sounds like you would’ve<br />
highly driven and motivated had an interesting upbringing,<br />
mum doing amazing events. what was life like growing up?<br />
I had an amazing life growing<br />
up on a farm. We spent summers<br />
in the Sounds at our family bach<br />
and in the winter I was always up<br />
at Mt Olympus.<br />
Spending time on the snow was<br />
a big part of my life. I learnt to<br />
ski there at three-years-old and<br />
snowboard at 16.<br />
I actually did my minor<br />
at art school in snowboard<br />
photography just so I could get<br />
up the mountain every week<br />
and justify it. I’ve been really<br />
involved in the early days of the<br />
snowboard industry in New<br />
Zealand. It makes me who I am<br />
and it makes me tick.<br />
Were you ever keen to get into<br />
fashion after growing up with a<br />
mother who’s highly prominent<br />
in the industry?<br />
Fashion isn’t something I’ve<br />
felt a huge desire to get into, I<br />
chose to pursue art which isn’t<br />
highly lucrative but I’m working<br />
on it. I used to model when I was<br />
15 through to about 20 – but it<br />
wasn’t serious at all.<br />
I was just learning to<br />
snowboard when I got the biggest<br />
bruise on my hip. Soon after<br />
that happened I had to fly up to<br />
Auckland for my first advertising<br />
campaign for a New Zealand<br />
designer and it was with Helen<br />
Cherry.<br />

give way to creating art<br />
It was a big deal and I turned<br />
up all bruised expecting them to<br />
say: ‘Who is this chick from the<br />
boonies? What’s she doing?’<br />
Christine Webster shot the<br />
campaign and I idolised her as<br />
a photographer and here was<br />
me this little rookie snowboard<br />
model chick. I was mortified. That<br />
exemplifies my non-attachment<br />
to the fashion industry.<br />
I did draw on my photography<br />
skills though and I was the official<br />
photographer for New Zealand<br />
Fashion Week when I moved back<br />
to the country.<br />
What was school like?<br />
I went to Hororata Primary<br />
then Selwyn House before<br />
going to boarding school at St<br />
Margaret’s College.<br />
After high school I went to<br />
Christchurch Polytechnic where I<br />
did a degree in craft design.<br />
I actually failed university<br />
entrance for art so I couldn’t get<br />
into art school on my marks.<br />
So I took the year off and<br />
snowboarded every day and<br />
painted at night and filled up<br />
work books so I could get myself<br />
in. I then did my post graduate<br />
at Elam School of Fine Arts<br />
majoring in sculpture.<br />
What did you do after<br />
studying?<br />
I had been institutionalised my<br />
ENTHUSIASTIC: Anneke Stewart on the slopes with her<br />
four-year-old daughter Phoenix.<br />
whole life so I decided to move<br />
overseas where I spent 10 years.<br />
What was it like living<br />
overseas?<br />
I tried to get art-related jobs<br />
but they wouldn’t recognise my<br />
degree there. While I was there I<br />
got very good at graffiti.<br />
My partner of the time was<br />
an aerosol artist so I went out to<br />
do public walls with him quite<br />
often. I was part of a paint jam in<br />
Brighton with about 150 graffiti<br />
artists from all around Europe<br />
and I was one of three girls. They<br />
were watching me paint and<br />
asked me how long I’ve been<br />
doing it . . . it was probably about<br />
my fifth ever piece and they were<br />
really impressed.<br />
After living in the UK I moved<br />
to Morzine, France and I got a job<br />
as a photographer. The first gig<br />
was at the Arctic Circle up the top<br />
of Sweden to an event called The<br />
Battle which is legendary in the<br />
snowboarding world. I ended up<br />
meeting a pro rider from Sweden<br />
and we ended up dating for four<br />
years.<br />
SUNSET: Mandala light box created from an original photo<br />
taken near Shag Rock after the February 22, 2011, earthquake.<br />
Why did you make the move<br />
back to New Zealand?<br />
After the Sweden saga I<br />
came home. I became unwell<br />
and developed really bad<br />
endometriosis.<br />
I was close to being booked in<br />
to get surgery but I wanted time<br />
to get my body strong so I moved<br />
to Wanaka. Being a Reiki master<br />
I was aware that what was going<br />
on could be fixed holistically. I<br />
worked with a natural healer and<br />
nutritionist for a year and I got<br />
rid of it completely without any<br />
surgery.<br />
You got engaged earlier this<br />
year, how did you meet you<br />
partner?<br />
When I moved to Wanaka I<br />
met my partner Anthony who’s a<br />
builder. We lived in Wanaka for a<br />
couple of years before moving to<br />
Leeston, then to the high country<br />
and now we’re in Sumner. We<br />
have two kids together – Phoenix<br />
who’s four and Knox who is twoand-a-half.<br />
After the endometriosis I was<br />
told I wouldn’t be able to conceive<br />
children easily so my children are<br />
miracles. He’s from the Taranaki<br />
so he’s a North Island boy but<br />
I managed to move him down<br />
here because I’m a hardcore<br />
Cantabrian.<br />

Big opportunity for models<br />
UP-AND-COMING: Papanui’s<br />
Lucy Wyma, 20.<br />
• By Annabelle Dick<br />
TWO NORTH-WEST residents<br />
will strut their stuff at New<br />
Zealand’s most popular fashion<br />
showcase in Auckland this<br />
week.<br />
Rebecca Dore, of Burnside,<br />
and Lucy Wyma, of Papanui,<br />
will take to the catwalk at New<br />
Zealand Fashion Week.<br />
Portfolio Model Agency<br />
director Mel Radford Brown<br />
said the girls are some of the top<br />
within the agency and reflects<br />
the talent Christchurch has to<br />
offer.<br />
“This speak volumes of<br />
Portfolio Models and the calibre<br />
of our models,” Mrs Radford<br />
Brown said.<br />
Miss Dore, 21, is Portfolio<br />
Model Agency’s booker as well<br />
as a model for the organisation.<br />
This is her fourth time walking<br />
at fashion week and she said<br />
she’s thrilled to be a part of one<br />
of the more extravagant shows<br />
of the week.<br />
“I did the wedding show last<br />
year and it was beautiful. It’s<br />
the best show of the week and<br />
it’s exciting to be a bride,” Miss<br />
Dore said.<br />
She has also walked in Australia’s<br />
premier event Mercedes-<br />
Benz Fashion Week in Sydney.<br />
Lucy Wyma, 20, also walked<br />
in the latest Mercedes-Benz<br />
Fashion Week and will be at<br />
New Zealand Fashion Week.<br />
The young up-and-comer<br />
was recently signed to modelling<br />
agency IMG International<br />
which has boasted the likes<br />
of Gisele Bundchen, Miranda<br />
Kerr and Kate Moss.<br />
Georgia Greig, 19, of Ilam,<br />
will accompany the girls in what<br />
will be her first appearance at<br />
New Zealand Fashion Week.<br />
BREAK OUT:<br />
Newcomer<br />
Georgia Greig,<br />
19, lives in Ilam.<br />
Miss Greig only just stepped<br />
onto the modelling scene a year<br />
ago and is excited to show at the<br />

Bridal Show<br />
Plan your honeymoon<br />
THE COST and time it takes<br />
to organise a honeymoon<br />
can often be underestimated<br />
when couples are planning<br />
their weddings.<br />
But at Sunday’s With This<br />
Ring Bridal Show, there will<br />
be a number of exhibitors<br />
there to take the stress out<br />
of it.<br />
Hello World Travel’s<br />
Rangiora and Rolleston<br />
branches will be at the show,<br />
with a group of experts<br />
to talk to people who are<br />
looking into the planning.<br />
Rangiora branch<br />
managing director Liz<br />
Ditmer said often people<br />
had unrealistic expectations<br />
of how much honeymoons<br />
could cost.<br />
She said people also had to<br />
start planning their trips well<br />
in advance, and their teams<br />
would be at next Sunday’s<br />
show to help people do so.<br />
“We’re just there to start<br />
pointing them in the right<br />
direction,” she said.<br />
“We can make<br />
appointments and sit down<br />
with them at a later time to<br />
talk in more detail.”<br />
This year’s show will have<br />
85 exhibitors ranging from<br />
wedding and bridesmaid<br />
gowns, photography,<br />
GETAWAY: The With This Ring Bridal Show will<br />
have stalls that offer advice on exotic honeymoon<br />
destinations.<br />
honeymoons, flowers,<br />
stationary, caterers, venue<br />
hire and many more.<br />
On top of that, there will<br />
be more than $22,000 of<br />
prizes to be won.<br />
A wedding and<br />
honeymoon at Norfolk<br />
Island will be up for grabs, as<br />
well as a honeymoon at The<br />
Edgewater Resort and Spa in<br />
Rarotonga.<br />
Venue hire up to the value<br />
of $4050 for Wigram Base<br />
will be up for grabs, along<br />
with many more prizes and<br />
giveaways.<br />
Two fashion catwalks will<br />
be held, one at 11am and the<br />
other at 2pm, showcasing<br />
wedding gowns and mother<br />
of the bride outfits.<br />
•The With This Ring<br />

Villa takes hockey final<br />
ST MARGARET’S College<br />
and Burnside High School<br />
both came agonisingly close<br />
to taking the biggest prizes in<br />
Christchurch secondary school<br />
hockey.<br />
The top secondary school<br />
hockey teams were found on<br />
Friday night at Marist Park.<br />
After a hard fought season<br />
which began at the start of<br />
May it was down to just two in<br />
the finals of the boys and girls<br />
school’s premier league hockey<br />
competition.<br />
St Margaret’s met Villa Maria<br />
College in the girls final. A tight,<br />
low scoring encounter saw Villa<br />
take the spoils 1-0.<br />
Villa and St Margaret’s<br />
finished the round-robin<br />
as the top two teams in the<br />
competition. St Margaret’s<br />
defeated Rangi Ruru 4-1 in last<br />
week’s semi-final while Villa<br />
topped Christchurch Girls’ High<br />
School 3-2.<br />
The boys final was played<br />
between Christ’s College and<br />
Burnside High School.<br />
Christ’s proved to strong winning<br />
the game 3-1.<br />
It was a valiant effort by Burnside<br />
just to make the final. They<br />
snuck into the play-offs as the<br />
fourth qualifier and then upset<br />
Christchurch Boys’ High School<br />
2-0 in last week’s semi-final.<br />
• By Gordon Findlater<br />
BURNSIDE HIGH School<br />
flanker Cam Russell was<br />
rewarded for his efforts during<br />
this year’s UC Championship at<br />
Saturday’s grand final.<br />
Russell was the joint winner of<br />
the Philip McDonald Memorial<br />
Medal with Shirley No. 8 Cruz<br />
Topai-Aveai.<br />
Former winners of the medal<br />
include the likes of Super Rugby<br />
players Damian McKenzie and<br />
Mitchell Drummond.<br />
The winner of the award is<br />
decided by opposition coaches<br />
throughout the season. After<br />
each game they submit who they<br />
think were the top three performers<br />
on the opposition side.<br />
Russell is in his fourth season<br />
with the first XV. He made his<br />
Burnside debut in 2013 as a year<br />
10. He was part of the Burnside<br />
team that conceded 100 points<br />
against Christchurch BHS that<br />
season.<br />
Now in his second season as<br />
the team’s captain, Russell has<br />
played a large part in Burnside’s<br />
rise in the UC Championship.<br />
He scored nine tries last year<br />
and has gone one better this year<br />
with 10.<br />
The flanker now has the<br />
chance to help his team win<br />
entry to the national co-ed competition<br />
which takes place next<br />
month.<br />
Burnside finished as the top<br />
MEDAL WINNER: Cam Russell (left) was awarded with the<br />

winger Atu Manu proved crucial<br />

Shirley co-captain Logan Bell<br />
scored with 10min remaining<br />
to make it 20-21. First-five Taine<br />

a chance to give Shirley the<br />

Teen Tall Ferns<br />
YEAR 12 Rangi Ruru Girls’<br />
School student Esra McGoldrick<br />
will represent the New Zealand<br />
under-19 basketball team.<br />
McGoldrick and Charlotte<br />
Whittaker, of Rangiora High<br />
School, are Canterbury’s two<br />
representatives in the squad.<br />
The Junior Tall Ferns will play<br />
China in two games at Cowles<br />
Stadium next month.<br />
McGoldrick, 16, represented<br />
Canterbury in a third place<br />
finish at last month’s under-19<br />
provincial championships. She<br />
was named in the New Zealand<br />
team at the conclusion of the<br />
tournament.<br />
McGoldrick should have<br />
represented New Zealand at under-19<br />
level last year. However,<br />
she missed out on the Junior Tall<br />
Ferns tour to China after tearing<br />
her ACL (anterior cruciate<br />
ligament) during the national<br />
under-17 provincial final 12<br />
months ago.<br />
“That was terrible. My surgery<br />
was in October and I missed out<br />
on a lot of stuff, including the<br />
tour to China.”<br />
“It’s going to be my first time<br />
representing New Zealand in<br />
front of a home crowd. There’s<br />
going to be a lot of supporters –<br />
it should be great.”<br />
She has previously represented<br />
New Zealand at under-16 and<br />
17 level.<br />
McGoldrick will play for<br />
Rangi Ruru tonight when they<br />
host St Andrew’s College in the<br />
semi-final of the Whelan Trophy<br />
competition.<br />
Rangi Ruru qualified for the<br />
play-offs after finishing at the<br />
top of their pool, with 12 wins<br />
and two losses this season.<br />
McGoldrick puts a lot of her<br />
recent development down to the<br />
coaching and support available<br />
at the school. She previously attended<br />
Rangiora New Life School<br />
before making the switch.<br />
She will also represent the<br />
Halswell premier women’s team<br />
on Saturday. They’re led by<br />
Canterbury Wildcats coach Lori<br />
McDaniel, and are currently<br />
third in the Canterbury premier<br />
competition.<br />
BALLERS:<br />
Esra<br />
McGoldrick<br />
(right) and<br />
Charlotte<br />
Whittaker<br />
will represent<br />
New Zealand<br />
against China.<br />
McGoldrick plays in the<br />
centre and power-forward<br />
positions.<br />
She’s looking forward to<br />
testing herself against the best<br />
under-19 players from China.<br />
“They definitely have height.<br />
They have a girl that’s 6”7<br />
(2.04m). They’re also great<br />
shooters and can play quick with<br />
the ball. It’s going to be pretty<br />
intense.”<br />
The two games against China<br />
will act as preparation ahead<br />
of the team’s under-19 Oceania<br />
World Championship qualifying<br />
tournament at the end of the<br />
year.<br />
New Zealand play China on<br />
September 7 and 8 at Cowles<br />
Stadium.<br />

eStar working to<br />
attract best IT talent<br />
Nurturing new talent and better<br />
engaging employees will reach new<br />
heights at eStar, as the world class<br />
e-commerce platform and leading<br />
Christchurch tech company strives to<br />
attract the brightest IT professionals.<br />
eStar’s outreach activities look<br />
four to five years ahead, says Chief<br />
Operations Officer Kevin Rowland.<br />
eStar ‘lead team’ staff attend careers<br />
events, visit secondary schools and<br />
recently supported Shadowtech,<br />
with two female employees<br />
mentoring two secondary school girls for a day.<br />
The company is recruiting and will be looking<br />
for new talent at Ara Institute of Canterbury’s<br />
Industry Expo on 25 <strong>August</strong>, having previously<br />
employed Ara graduates (when Ara was CPIT).<br />
Finding the right skills mix for retail IT is<br />
challenging, Rowland says. With around 70<br />
staff, eStar designs and develops the software<br />
that powers the websites and the online retail<br />
systems of retailers including Briscoes and<br />
Country Road.<br />
Technical skills are of course essential, but ‘soft<br />
skills’ such as communication and interaction<br />
can really set candidates apart. “When we<br />
interview I am always looking for personality. We<br />
do a technical test/developer half day immersion<br />
and everybody freaks over the fact that it’s a tech<br />
test, but if you can do what you say on your CV<br />
then it’s not an issue. You’re in a live ‘dev’ room,<br />
with the people you are going to be working<br />
with. I not only encourage people to talk to each<br />
other but it has to happen because that helps me<br />
see what they’re like.<br />
“Most people who work in IT are introverts.<br />
It’s what makes us good programmers; it’s part<br />
of our personality.<br />
“It’s OK if candidates are a bit meek, but I<br />
have to see some kind of spark. I can throw a<br />
stone into Christchurch and find graduates<br />
who can do IT. They have got to have that bit of<br />
enthusiasm.”<br />

and other leading Christchurch companies<br />

NOR’WEST NEWS<br />
Reclaim your<br />
identity<br />
When it comes to dentures, Christchurch people<br />
have access to world-leading techniques and oral<br />
aesthetics right on their doorstep.<br />
At his Montreal street studio Lovebite,<br />
internationally renowned dental<br />
technician Richard Greenlees creates<br />
beautiful bespoke dentures with small<br />
nuances in the fabrication, colour and<br />
shape, and even slight imperfections to<br />
create a uniquely individual smile.<br />
There is no need for dentures to look<br />
false. Richard takes a great deal of<br />
satisfaction in making bespoke dentures<br />
that look 100 per cent real and natural,<br />
personally guiding his patients through<br />
the transformation process to craft a<br />
smile that reflects their individuality and<br />
personality, and recreates their natural<br />
pre-denture smile.<br />
Not only do Lovebite teeth look<br />
real, the whole structure and shape of<br />
the patient’s face is transformed with<br />
Richard’s top-of-the-line dentures,<br />
something he calls his signature ‘denture<br />
lift’.<br />
“With appropriate facial support, the<br />
facial tissues are brought back into the<br />
correct position, the lips are reformed,<br />
and beauty is restored,” he says.<br />
it is the interior architecture of a<br />
Lovebite denture that helps to create a<br />
more youthful appearance by recovering<br />
the face and skeletal shape that can be<br />
lost after years of wearing dentures.<br />
As the smile is transformed, so are the<br />
patient’s confidence, and the way they<br />
feel about themselves.<br />
Richard’s vast experience includes<br />
15 years of running his own clinic in<br />
the prestigious harley st, London,<br />
where he treated people from all walks<br />
of life, from barrow boys to the rich<br />
and famous, politicians, actors and<br />
musicians.<br />
his techniques are recognised as<br />
world-leading among his international<br />
peers, and he is regularly asked to<br />
lecture and run courses worldwide.<br />
Miles Cone (DMD, Ms, FACP, CDt),<br />
a prosthodontist from Oregon, UsA,<br />
said in November 2015: “Richard<br />
Greenlees’ craftsmanship is as stunning<br />
as it is unique. There is liberation in<br />
the calculated imperfection, indeed an<br />
asperity that reflects a purely human<br />
element.”<br />
in addition to dentures, Richard also<br />
carries out crown and bridge, veneer<br />
and implant work, in conjunction<br />
with like-minded dental surgeons who<br />
complement his creative and aesthetic<br />
work.<br />
“teeth are as different as fingerprints<br />
and vary greatly depending on a person’s<br />
age, sex and race. Dentures from<br />
Lovebite reflect this, and are as unique<br />
and individual as the people they are<br />
made for,” says Richard.<br />
There is nothing more satisfying for<br />
Richard than to see his patients leave<br />
the Lovebite studio with their selfconfidence<br />
and identity restored, as well<br />
as their smile.<br />
Confidence and beauty is restored with a new<br />
denture by Lovebite.<br />
As the smile is transformed, so are the<br />
patient’s confidence, and the way they<br />
feel about themselves.<br />

FOCUS ON HEALTH<br />
Proven<br />
formula<br />
combats<br />
colds & flu<br />
Research has shown certain herbs and natural<br />
ingredients can dramatically reduce the chances<br />
of succumbing to colds and flu.<br />
One example of a proven formula is Go<br />
Healthy ‘Go Vir-Defence’. Due to the high<br />
potency extracts it contains, one or two capsules<br />
daily are usually sufficient to keep the immune<br />
system at optimum efficiency; however, at the<br />
onset of headaches, sore throat, body aches<br />
etc. the dose should be increased to one or two<br />
capsules up to three times daily.<br />
Go Vir-Defence contains: Olive Leaf Extract<br />
- a popular ingredient used in the treatment of<br />
immune attacks for its strong anti-microbial<br />
properties.<br />
Garlic Extract - effective in combatting<br />
bacteria, viruses and fungi and supporting the<br />
immune system. Andrographis Extract - has<br />
powerful immune-enhancing properties.<br />
Echinacea Extract - a natural antibiotic and<br />
infection fighter.<br />
Pau D’ Arco Extract - helps enhance the<br />
immune system.<br />
Citrus Bioflavonoids - work with Vitamin<br />
C and support the immune system as well<br />
as strengthening capillaries and reducing<br />
inflammation.<br />
Vitamin C - a powerful antioxidant that helps<br />
counteract bacteria and viral infections.<br />
Elderberry Extract - provides immune support.<br />
Zinc - an essential mineral for the immune<br />
system and general health.<br />

Essential<br />
nutrients for<br />
health & vitality<br />
After noticing patients were<br />
experiencing gut, bowel and<br />
digestive issues that often led to<br />
more serious chronic health<br />
conditions, two Australian<br />
Naturopaths conducted<br />
extensive research. This<br />
revealed that although<br />
the patients were generally<br />
eating good food, they were not<br />
obtaining all the nutrients required<br />
for good health, with one of the<br />
main problems being the digestive<br />
system.<br />
Also, with the soils crops are<br />
grown in being depleted of many<br />
trace elements and other essential<br />
nutrients, the crops are also<br />
depleted.<br />
If we do not obtain all the<br />
required nutrients, our body will<br />
compensate to some degree, but<br />
a lack of too many nutrients will<br />
eventually lead to health issues.<br />
Knowing this, the naturopaths<br />
developed Vital Greens, a nutrientdense<br />
powdered formula that<br />
provides superior absorption and<br />
comprehensive nutrition.<br />
Vital Greens contains a balanced<br />
blend of nutritionally rich<br />

Father’s Day -<br />
Keep Dad on<br />
his toes<br />
Every three hours a New Zealand man dies from a<br />
preventable disease. Yet most “blokes” wait until<br />
something goes wrong before seeking help!<br />
Men are not as diligent at taking<br />
care of themselves as women,<br />
according to health practitioners<br />
around the world.<br />
So men, what about some<br />
preventative maintenance for<br />
your body, as you would give your<br />
car? And women, let’s try harder<br />
to encourage our men to take care<br />
of themselves. Small lifestyle<br />
changes can prevent or delay the<br />
onset of many health problems.<br />
When diabetes, arthritis or<br />
stiff, aching joints are a problem,<br />
and more time is spent sitting,<br />
it’s important to have an easy and<br />
enjoyable way to remain active.<br />
Participating in sports or not,<br />
watching TV, reading the paper,<br />
or talking on the phone, an<br />
Aircycle circulation booster can<br />
keep you moving while you sit..<br />
Keeping Dad on his toes with<br />
a Father’s Day gift of an Aircycle<br />
will keep his blood pumping,<br />
muscles strong and help relieve<br />
pain.<br />

Davis Cup event returns to Christchurch<br />
The New Zealand Davis<br />
Cup team are heading back to<br />
Christchurch to take on Pakistan in<br />
the Asia-Oceania Group 1 second<br />
round playoff. The Tie is being<br />
held from Friday 16 September to<br />
Sunday 18 September, indoors at<br />
Z Energy Wilding Park.<br />
Kiwi Olympians Michael Venus<br />
and Marcus Daniell ranked 41<br />
and 58 respective in the world<br />
for doubles have been named<br />
alongside Finn Tearney ranked<br />
381, Rubin Statham at 444 in<br />
singles. If Statham takes the court<br />
he will beat Onny Parun’s New<br />
Zealand Davis Cup record of the<br />
most ties played for his country of<br />
25 ties.<br />
It is likely Pakistan will select<br />
their doubles expert Aisam<br />
Qureshi who is 36-years-old and<br />
ranked 48th in doubles. Aqeel<br />
Khan is another likely veteran<br />
who should be selected.<br />
New Zealand lead Pakistan<br />
3-1 in head-to-head clashes. The<br />
last time the two sides clashed it<br />
was a 4-1 win for New Zealand<br />
in Myanmar in 2013 which was<br />
abandoned.<br />
Christchurch has been the home<br />
of Davis Cup ties since 2014, with<br />
a win against Chinese Taipei in<br />
2014 and a close 3-2 loss to India<br />
in the 2015 semi-finals. Tennis<br />
Canterbury is extremely excited<br />
to host yet another Davis Cup tie<br />
for the third consecutive year. This<br />
is a return to the glory days that<br />
has seen Tennis Canterbury host<br />
numerous Davis Cup ties against<br />
some of the superpower of world<br />
tennis.<br />
Z Energy Wilding Park is one<br />
of the oldest sport venues still in<br />
operation in all of Canterbury.<br />
It has played host to Davis<br />
Cup matches as far back as the<br />
1910’s and 20’s. Much like many<br />
of Christchurch’s other most<br />
important sporting facilities<br />
Wilding Park was severely<br />
impacted by the Christchurch<br />
Earthquake impacted in both<br />
September 2009 and February<br />
2010.<br />
The rebuilding process has<br />
been a long one. Mixed emotions<br />
were felt at the demolition of the<br />
iconic Memorial Stands, host to<br />
numerous Davis Cup Tie and other<br />
International Tennis Federation<br />
events. However it was also the first<br />
bit of tangible progress in relation<br />
to the redevelopment of Wilding<br />
Park and proved to generate<br />
some real excitement amongst the<br />
tennis community. Strengthening<br />
work on the facility’s structural<br />
steel and refurbishment of the<br />
administration and function<br />
space erased any signs of the<br />
earthquake damage and provided<br />
the wider community with some<br />
great function space.<br />
The final stage of development<br />
will see the reinstatement of<br />
six additional outdoor courts,<br />
the development of a grassy<br />
embankment for spectator viewing<br />
and social spaces, including a<br />
barbeque area. The facility will<br />
continue to be available to the<br />
local communities, including<br />
school, charitable organisations<br />
and, in some cases, other sports<br />
outside of normal hours. The<br />
final stage of development work<br />
is scheduled to be gin in the<br />
coming month with a completion<br />
date of mid November, just in<br />
time for the Summer of Tennis.<br />
This development will allow<br />
Canterbury to again host National<br />
Age Group events, International<br />
Events and, of course, future<br />
Summer Davis Cup ties.<br />
This year’s Davis Cup tie is a<br />
three day event. Two singles will<br />
be played on Friday, doubles on<br />
Saturday and the two reverse<br />
singles on Sunday. Matches are<br />
the best of five sets. Tickets and<br />
Corporate Boxes are available.<br />

Cantabrian Tennis Player USA Bound<br />
On the 1st June <strong>2016</strong>, Jack Tiller<br />
signed a national letter of intent<br />
with Southeastern Oklahoma State<br />
University, located in Durant,<br />
Oklahoma, USA.<br />
From the age of 15 Jack’s overall<br />
goal in tennis was to gain a<br />
scholarship to train, play and study<br />
in the United States of America.<br />
Through taking part in Canterbury<br />
Performance squads since the age of<br />
12, he constantly saw older players<br />
being granted scholarships and<br />
given opportunities to experience<br />
American lifestyle through<br />
tennis while gaining invaluable<br />
experiences. Seeing others excel<br />
in the college tennis system<br />
encouraged him to start<br />
preparation for enrolment in<br />
Fall <strong>2016</strong>.<br />
In October of 2015, Jack<br />
got in contact with John<br />
Gardner, the head coach in<br />
the Nelson/Marlborough region<br />
and his company, Inspire Sports.<br />
John’s expertise guided Jack<br />
through a comprehensive checklist<br />
of what he needed to achieve to<br />
reach his ultimate goal of signing<br />
with a college that fitted in well with<br />
what he wanted. John’s personalised<br />
programme was a great help. It<br />
began with initial meetings with<br />
Jack and his father so John could<br />
understand what they were looking<br />
for in a college. John then set out a<br />
‘Plan of attack” on how they would<br />
go about getting a contract. They<br />
began working together through<br />
each stage, which included NCAA<br />
registration, skills video, personal<br />
website, SAT and GPA results and<br />
working through what colleges Jack<br />
wanted to contact. Jack believes that<br />
it would not have been possible for<br />
him to work through everything<br />
that needed to be done without<br />
John’s outstanding expertise and<br />
knowledge. Jack found John’s<br />
attention to detail and reliability to<br />
be outstanding.<br />
Jack began talks with the coach<br />
from Southeastern Oklahoma State<br />
University in March of this year. The<br />
coach expressed his interest in Jack<br />
joining the college team and, after<br />
talking through email, the college<br />
made an offer for Jack to attend<br />
their college and become part of the<br />
Savage Storm athletic family. After<br />
the initial paper work, Jack signed a<br />
national letter of intent, committing<br />
Jack to attending the university.<br />
Through his years of training,<br />
Jack’s ultimate goal was to get to<br />
university. Jack is a self-professed<br />
‘late bloomer’ in tennis. During his<br />
junior years, he describes himself as<br />
a mediocre player who was always<br />
outside the top player category.<br />
Through growth, maturity and the<br />
help of the Canterbury training<br />
programme, he was able to play<br />
smarter tennis and achieve positive<br />
results. Coaching by Alistair Hunt<br />
and Matt Meredith has afforded<br />
Jack the opportunity to learn from<br />
the best and use their expertise on<br />
court, creating a huge advantage.<br />
Jack has represented Canterbury<br />
in multiple ties including<br />
Canterbury vs Marlborough,<br />
City vs Country, Canterbury<br />
team’s event and also the<br />
Canterbury men’s team. In 2015<br />
he won the under 18 Canterbury<br />
Championships, a great result to put<br />
on his college application form.<br />
Jack has always loved the fact that<br />
tennis is mostly an individual sport,<br />
results are based on a player’s own<br />
ability and there are no excuses. Jack<br />
has always enjoyed competing in<br />
Canterbury Interclub representing<br />
his club of Elmwood. He is grateful<br />
to Ashley Forbes for giving him<br />
the opportunity to play top level<br />
tennis in the premiere grade against<br />
great players like James Meredith,<br />
Remi Fennon and other top rated<br />
players in the region. Jack feels that<br />
it through playing top level players<br />
that he has learned the most, even if<br />
it involved losing.<br />
During tennis season, Jack trains<br />
or plays every day of the week. Each<br />
week also includes four sessions of<br />
hitting, two fitness sessions and two<br />
days of interclub matches on the<br />
weekends. During the off season<br />
Jack keeps training with hitting<br />
three days a week and a fitness<br />
session and match play on the<br />
weekends.<br />
Jack chooses to keep his future<br />
goals simple. His immediate goal<br />
is to do the best he can to prepare<br />
for college and to give himself the<br />
best chance of success. For Jack,<br />
this means being fit and healthy,<br />
requiring him to train as well as he<br />
can every time he gets on the court.<br />
Over the long term, Jack plans to<br />
take every opportunity he can at<br />
Southeastern Oklahoma State in<br />
order to reach his full potential<br />
whilst there, not just in tennis, but<br />
also in academic life.<br />
For younger players aspiring to<br />
play college tennis, Jack’s advice is<br />
to never give up. Jack recalls many<br />
moments in his time of playing<br />
tennis when he thought he wasn’t<br />
good enough, or wasn’t able to<br />
compete to his full potential. Not<br />
TENNIS CANTERBURY <strong>2016</strong> / 2017 CALENDAR<br />
being the best player in the region<br />
or the nation is not a problem;<br />
it’s a challenge. By embracing<br />
that challenge, working hard and<br />
training, it is possible to shorten the<br />
gap between the different levels in<br />
order to compete in top level tennis.<br />
Have a goal and go for it!<br />
Jack invites anyone interested in<br />
college tennis to feel free to ask any<br />
questions. He will be happy to try<br />
and answer!<br />

Putting a friendly<br />
face on tennis<br />
If you were to visit Bishopdale Tennis Club on a Saturday morning, you would find the<br />
courts buzzing with people as the junior programme is in full swing. The Kiwi programme<br />
for 5-7 year-olds starts at 8:30am, followed by the 8+ junior programme. Players are<br />
supported by a host of parents, uncles, aunties, and siblings.<br />
At the heart of all this activity is the friendly face of Andrea Stanton, the club’s junior<br />
administrator. Andrea has filled this role for the past seven years, bringing a personable<br />
manner and professionalism to her role that has created a positive, friendly culture and a<br />
highly successful junior programme. For this reason, Andrea has been named Junior Club<br />
Volunteer of the Year by Tennis Canterbury.<br />
Since Andrea first took on the administrator role, the club has seen a steady increase<br />
from seven junior teams to 15. The club currently has approximately 130 juniors. Andrea<br />
knows each of them – and their parents - by name. Her warm personality makes her an easy<br />
“go-to” person for those involved with the club. She is well organised and committed to her<br />
role, often putting in a huge number of courtside hours in support of each and every team.<br />
Through volunteers like Andrea, Bishopdale Tennis has been able to develop a very<br />
family orientated programme. The club welcomes players of all ages and abilities and offers<br />
some of the best facilities in Christchurch. Players are invited to come in for a drink at the<br />
club house to get to know other members. Bishopdale Tennis Club is located at 35 Leacroft<br />
Street, next to Bishopdale Park.<br />
Whether you would like play socially or competitively, come to Bishopdale Tennis Club<br />
to meet Andrea and their other friendly volunteers.<br />

Have Fun and Get Fit<br />
with Cardio Tennis<br />
Looking for a way to get fit, have fun and<br />
meet new people? Cardio Tennis is a fitness<br />
programme offered at tennis clubs across<br />
Canterbury. Combining the best features of<br />
tennis with cardiovascular exercise, Cardio<br />
Tennis delivers a fun, full-body, calorieburning<br />
aerobic workout ¬– even if you have<br />
never played tennis before.<br />
Cardio Tennis uses low-compression tennis<br />
balls which travel at a slower speed, making<br />
it easier for a beginner to hit the ball. More<br />
advanced players will be challenged by a<br />
range of activities that cater to all skill levels.<br />
Cardio Tennis works by raising participants’<br />
heart rates into their aerobic training zone. At<br />
the beginning of each session, participants<br />
are equipped with heart rate monitors before<br />
exercising to music and using a variety of<br />
modified equipment to elevate the heart<br />
rate. Like interval training, periods of high<br />
intensity are followed by short periods of rest.<br />
Cardio Tennis combines fun with<br />
spectacular success. Women can burn up to<br />
500 calories in a 60 minute workout. Men<br />
can burn up to 800 calories. Cardio Tennis<br />
coaches are Tennis NZ registered and trained<br />
to ensure that participants get a great workout<br />
while improving their tennis skills.<br />
Even if you’re not good at tennis, Cardio<br />
Tennis can provide a fun, social way to keep<br />
fit. Contact Tennis Canterbury to find a<br />
Cardio Tennis programme near you.<br />

Z Energy Junior Spring Open (2-7 October).<br />

tournament welcomes players from the 8 and<br />
under age group up to 18 years.<br />

junior, regardless of age or ability. Players<br />

internationally, except for the ASB Primary/<br />

kids to play in fun, supportive and interactive<br />
sessions. Lessons generally run for between 30 and<br />
60 minutes. NZPTHS coaching<br />
sessions can be one-on-one or in a<br />
group – ask your local venue what<br />
options are available.<br />
Community Play Community<br />
Play is designed to give kids<br />
the chance to have a hit in a<br />
supportive environment where the<br />
emphasis is on fun, not coaching.<br />
The Community Play program<br />
is conducted in clubs and centres<br />
New Zealand-wide by parents,<br />
club volunteers and NZPTHS<br />
coaches.<br />
