Decision over 

BP expansion 

next week 

Catwalk ready 

• By Andrew King 

ST ALBANS residents trying to 

stop the expansion of a petrol 

station will know next Thursday 

whether they have been 

successful. 

The group was expecting 

to find out on Friday if the 

resource consent BP Oil had 

applied for had been approved 

after the hearing was held last 

month. 

But there was a delay to the 

official closure of the hearing, 

after commissioner David 

Mountfort said he needed 

additional information about 

the application. This meant the 

decision is now not expected 

until next Thursday. 

BP has bought two sections 

next to the service station on 

the corner of Edgeware Rd and 

Cranford St, and plans to build a 

bigger forecourt and shop there. 

If the consent is granted it will 

add four pumps with 12 more 

car parks. 

Resident Rob Hull said while 

he was disappointed, residents 

had not been notified of the delay, 

it was not surprising. He said 

residents had been “kept in the 

dark” about most of the process. 

“The communication has been 

shocking,” he said. 

A city council spokeswoman 

said the city council is not 

obliged to inform the submitters 

when the commissioner has 

closed the hearing. 

As the consent was only 

limited notification, only two 

residents were able to speak 

at the hearing, however, they 

submitted a petition with 37 

signatures on it, opposing the 

expansion.

Mr Mountfort asked the 

city council to present a more 

specific condition about the 

spacing of trees along the 

northern internal boundary. 

Mr Hull said residents were 

concerned on the weekend when 

they saw construction fencing 

going up around property BP 

has bought to expand. 

Objector and resident Kazu 

Kano said he just wanted the 

outcome to be known in a 

timely fashion.

Bank closure would be ‘huge loss’ 


RESIDENTS ARE fighting 

the potential closure of the 

Bishopdale Westpac branch by 

starting a petition. 

The Bishopdale and Fendalton 

Westpac branches are two of 19 

around the country that could 

be closed due to the rise in online 

transactions. 

But Bishopdale residents are 

fighting the closure because they 

say it needed in the area, especially 

among older people. 

According to a statement 

released by Westpac the closure 

is because 85 per cent of service 

transactions are not done at 

banks. 

Bishopdale Centre 

Association secretary Jenny 

Haig said the suburb has been 

labelled as a “rejuvenation 

area” by the city council so not 

having basic amenities seems 

strange. 

“People are not happy and 

the customers are quite 

passionate about having a 

branch here. They are killing it,” 

she said. 

“The access is good, there is 

great parking and a lot of businesses 

bank here.”

UNHAPPY: Residents around Bishopdale band together to try stop the closure of their local 

branch. The Bishopdale and Fendalton Westpac branches are two of 19 around the country 

that could be closed due to the rise in online transactions. PHOTO: ANNABELLE DICK 

development worker Tania 

Smith said it will not only 

affect elderly people in Bishopdale 

but businesses who use the 

branch to doing their banking 

as well. 

Meanwhile, Hamilton Ave 

Residents Association chairman 

Doug Archbold said losing 

Westpac bank was another blow 

to the Fendalton community, after 

the Kiwibank and PostShop 

closed in December and moved 

to the Fendalton Library and 

Service Centre. 

“There is surprise and concern 

from the elderly, who are not 

that technologically-savvy,” he 

said. 

Mr Archbold believes they 

would not just start using the 

internet because their bank 

moved, they would have to go 

further to find another branch 

that could accommodate their 

needs. 

Westpac media adviser Hilary 

Marett said they would not be 

making any comment while the 

consultation process is under 

way. 

HAVE YOUR SAY: Is there 

still a need for bank 

buildings or can everything 

be done online meaning 

less need for a branch?

In Brief 

SPA CLOSED 

Jellie Park Recreation and Sport 

Centre’s spa will remain closed 

for the next one to two weeks 

after receiving a positive test 

result for Legionella bacterium 

from the Canterbury District 

Health Board. As an additional 

precaution, spa pools at the 

Pioneer and Graham Condon 

Recreation and Sport Centres will 

be super-chlorinated and tested. 

REDUCED SPEED 

Papanui Rd has a reduced speed 

limit to 30km/h between Innes Rd 

and Bealey Ave until September 

30. The reduction is due to trenchwork 

being carried out. The lanes 

have also been shifted, but both 

remain open, to accommodate the 

work. Delays can be expected.

Anti-fluoridation argument 

doesn’t ‘hold much water’ 

Nick King 

responds to 

last week’s 

opinion piece 

by John 

Verd about 

the dangers 

of water 

fluoridation 

in Christchurch 

With respect John, I think 

your passion for the well-being 

of others is admirable but, in this 

case, misguided. 

To suffer a ‘toxic dose’ of 

fluoride, at the current safe and 

recommended level you’d have to 

guzzle 25 gallons of water. You’d 

die from hyperhydration first. 

Sola dosis facit venenum – the 

dose makes the poison. 

You quote Hirzy and Connett 

as if that adds weight to the antifluoride 

argument. 

They are not respected in their 

field, nor do they speak for the 

(United States) Environmental 

Protection Agency. And they’re 

at odds with their peers and 

mountains of research. 

I suspect these ‘studies’ are the 

well-known ‘Chinese studies’, 

popular among conspiracy theorists 

and widely discredited. Fifty 

poor studies versus thousands 

of more robust studies does not 

make a solid case. 

The Chinese studies fail to 

acknowledge the higher than recommended 

levels of fluoride and 

other chemicals (also other factors 

that may contribute to lower 

IQ), including arsenic and iodine 

– iodine being a good example 

of “beneficial in small doses, 

dangerous in higher doses”. 

The dose makes the poison. 

Even if it is a by-product of an 

industrial process, so what? Lots 

of things are. We call it recycling. 

It’s safe at the levels required to 

be beneficial to teeth. 

Sure, it might be classed as 

a hazardous product which, of 

course, it will be if you’re counting 

it by the truck load. 

Hydrochloric acid is highly 

corrosive, but is also produced 

naturally by your own body. 

There’s arsenic in rice. 

The dose makes the poison. 

I’m all for questioning and 

challenging the status-quo – 

things go stale if we don’t. 

But scaring people with 

sciencey-sounding rhetoric isn’t 

very helpful, even if your intentions 

are good. 

I too have my own reservations 

about this situation because of 

Christchurch’s reputation for 

amazing water, and I have an 

emotional attachment to that. 

But the points you covered just 

don’t hold much water (pun 

intended) and are potentially 

unnecessarily scary for people. 

Readers respond to last 

week’s opinion piece 

by John Verd about 

fluoridated water 

Pam Webber, Middleton 

I agree with you. (It’s) 

abhorrent that they intend 

ruining our beautiful 

Christchurch water. Keep up the 

good work. 

Ian Orchard, Papanui 

I won’t be losing sleep over 

the possibility of fluoridated 

water until I get some more 

details which John Verd 

omitted. The somewhat 

breathless revelation that 

hydrofluorosilicic acid (more 

properly Hexafluorosilicic acid) 

is a by-product of the fertiliser 

industry isn’t particularly 

relevant. Like sausages, lots 

of ingredients in food come 

from pathways that we prefer 

not to know about, without 

being in any way hazardous. 

On the other hand, plenty of 

ingredients can be dangerous 

in the wrong concentrations. 

Sodium chloride and 

dihydrogen oxide are two classic 

examples. Sodium bicarbonate, 

frequently recommended for 

tough cleaning jobs, is also an 

essential ingredient in cakes. 

John makes no mention of the 

concentration of fluoride ions 

in treated water. The WTO 

recommends 1mg/l or one 

part per million, hardly a toxic 


dose for a mineral that doesn’t 

accumulate in the body. He also 

omits to mention the ‘elevated’ 

levels of fluorine required to 

cause reduced IQ, or whether 

association is actual causation, 

or if any of the 50 studies had 

survived peer review? It’s much 

easier to scaremonger if you 

leave out any details that might 

counter your beliefs. 

A reader responds to 

a recent article about 

construction of the new 

Northern Corridor project 

Peter Reid – Bishopdale 

Good about the pedestrian 

and cycleway. I presume it will 

take the same form as the one 

alongside QE II. Seems odd to 

have a third lane north over the 

Waimakariri, but not south. It 

will ease congestion a bit and, 

for a while, for rush hour motorists 

coming into the city until 

numbers increase and congestion 

gets back to present levels. Not 

that I’m against the project. I left 

Christchurch in 1969, a few years 

after the original motorway was 

done. When I returned in 1986, I 

was very disappointed to find an 

extension hadn’t been done to the 

east of Belfast into the city. Have 

they ditched that silly extra exit 

off QE II in the vicinity of Hills 

Rd through a park and across to 

Innes Rd, or somewhere there, 

that was proposed a couple of 

years ago?

Proposed resident parking 

scheme moves up a gear 


RESIDENTS ARE closer to 

getting permits that will allow 

them to park on their own street 

overriding any time restrictions. 

The Fendalton-Waimairi 

Community Board and city 

councillor Jamie Gough want to 

introduce permits so residents 

can park in their street exempt 

from restricted time constraints. 

The board recommended city 

council staff arrange a briefing 

where resident permits can be 

explored and potential solutions 

found. 

The recommendation was 

adopted by the city council at a 

recent meeting. 

“Parking restrictions are 

a necessary evil to promote 

vehicle turnover in busy areas. 

But the point of them is not to 

punish the residents that need to 

park in front of their own house 

for longer than the restricted 

time period,” Cr Gough said. 

“I think there’s a better way, 

and it’s pretty straight-forward,” 

he said. 

The permit would over rule 

any parking restrictions on the 

street outside their property. 

Russley resident Ken Legat 

said the permit was a fantastic 

idea that will start to give 

residents the freedom to park 

outside their properties. 

“Parking is a big problem, 

especially for us with the 

inclusion of the Airport Business 

Park and its employees needing 

a space to park near their work,” 

he said. 

The permits would be similar 

to the contractor parking 

permits Cr Gough campaigned 

for on behalf of a Holmwood Rd 

resident. 

They allow contractors to 

park exempt from restrictions 

in suburban streets. That idea is 

now being trialled for the next 

10 months. 

HAVE YOUR SAY: Does the 

city council need to bring 

in parking permits to allow 

residents to park outside 

their properties without the 

risk of parking fines? Share

SCIRT programme on the home straight 

SCIRT’s five year programme of repairs to pipes, roads, bridges and retaining walls is 

almost complete and will finish in December. 

Most of our repairs involve fixing the city’s underground pipe networks with only small 

amount of our work focused on roads. 

Our roading work largely involves fixing where we have dug down to repair and replace 

the earthquake damaged pipes beneath. The result may look a little patchy but we repair 

roads to a reliable and serviceable standard. 

The City Council and NZ Transport Agency will continue completing ongoing repairs to the 

city's earthquake-damaged roads after SCIRT. 

Progress in your neighbourhood 

• Fixing the Northern Relief, one of Christchurch’s biggest wastewater pipes running 

through Fendalton, Merivale and St Albans is more than halfway through and will be 

completed at the end of the year. 

• Essential wastewater repairs in Aikmans Road in Merivale have begun and will be 

completed at the end of the year. 

• Ongoing repairs to the wastewater networks in Fendalton, Strowan, Papanui and 

Bryndwr are due to finish next month. 

• Your support is helping us to get the job done, thank you from the SCIRT team.

morning in Christchurch – but 

not in the way you’d expect. 

Pupils from Tuahiwi School 

released eels and planted trees to 

celebrate the successful realignment 

of the Kā Pūtahi Creek. 

Rich with native life, the creek 

area in Belfast has been the beneficiary 

of the upcoming creation 

of the Northern Corridor 

roading system. 

The realignment has been 

carried out by the city council to 

allow the corridor, which begins 

construction in October, to pass 

over the Kā Pūtahi without the 

need to obstruct the creek with 

the creation of special culverts. 

City council head of transport 

Chris Gregory said big transport 

developments like this often led 

to unexpected benefits on the 

side. 

“In this case, the Northern 

Corridor project has given the 

city council the perfect opportunity 

to create two hectares of 

native forest and riparian planting,” 

he said. 

“Importantly, the realignment 

of the stream means that both 

people and wildlife will be able 

to move up and down the stream 

corridor freely, without any barriers 

created by the motorway 

NEW DIRECTION: A Belfast creek has benefited from the 

Northern Corridor roading project. 

and culverts.” 

Planning for the realignment 

began in 2013 and was approved 

by the city council in August 

2015. 

Construction began in 

January 2016, with contractors 

Grounds & Services Ltd able 

to complete the work ahead of 

schedule. 

In securing a viable spring-fed 

river ecosystem and a sourceto-sea 

experience through the 

continuation of the urban reserve 

network and walkway, the 

project has been an important 

step in achieving the Styx Vision 

2000-2040. 

PROGRESS: Harcourts Holmwood owners Tony Jenkins and 

Lynne MacDonald outside the business’s old premises which 

will make way for a new building. 

New headquarters for 

Harcourts Holmwood 

HARCOURTS Holmwood is 

preparing for a new era with the 

demolition of its quake-damaged 

head office. 

More than five years on from 

the earthquakes, the damaged 

building at 397 Ilam Rd will 

make way for a new state-of-the 

art premises. 

Owners Tony Jenkins and 

Lynne MacDonald said it was 

incredibly satisfying to see work 

underway on the site after several 

years of evaluation and planning. 

The new building will be the 

flagship premises for Harcourts 

Holmwood, which operates seven 

offices throughout Christchurch, 

as well as in Invercargill 

and Gore. 

It’s been designed to cater for 

all aspects of the business’s real 

estate service, including a new 

on-site auction room and adjoining 

cafe. 

The business will operate 

out of 142 Sherborne Street, St 

Albans, during construction.

Our People 


Snowboarding and modelling 

Anneke Stewart is an artist who has spent years 

travelling and adventure-seeking. Reporter 

Annabelle Dick spoke to her about what it was 

like growing up on a deer farm, modelling for one 

of New Zealand’s biggest designers and how she 

impressed some of Europe’s most well-known 

graffiti artists 

You are an artist by trade, can 

you tell me about your art and 

your career? 

I exhibit at least once or twice 

a year, I’m always producing 

artwork. I produce in about 

10 different mediums quite 

prolifically. The style is very much 

cohesive throughout my work. 

I’m into reclaimed objects 

and keeping the integrity of a 

material. My approach to what 

I do is consciously create and 

honour where we come from and 

where our materials come from. 

I believe we’re here to look after 

this beautiful planet. I’m a Reiki 

master which is like an energy 

healer so I’m very sensitive to 

energy and energy patterns. 

I love what I do. Art is not 

something I do, it’s who I am and 

there’s no separation between the 

two. It’s like breathing I have to 

do it in order to feel normal. 

What are you working on at 

the moment? 

I’m currently working on 

more products and print media 

on paper so I can make my 

work more accessible. I’ve 

just completed the largest 

commission of my career so 

far for the Deloitte building in 

the city centre. It’s a lenticular 

lightbox which is an animated 

3D-type medium so the images 

change when you walk past. 

I’m trying to keep my fine art 

and commercial art separate. On 

a weekly basis I do art classes 

where I teach a handful of 

students – hopefully, by next year 

I can have more classes. I want 

to start adult classes next month 

too. I’m also doing a piece for the 

BMX park over in New Brighton 

in spring. 

Tell me about you family. 

My father was a deer farmer 

and my mother has always 

worked in fashion. When I was in 

school she sold Pieter’s Modelling 

Agency which is now Portfolio 

CREATIVE: Anneke Stewart with one of her creations. 

Model Agency. Then a few years She’s very down to earth, a hard 

later she started New Zealand worker and she’s quite shy. She 

Fashion Week. 

loves to cook and hates shopping. 

I’ve always grown up with a That sounds like you would’ve 

highly driven and motivated had an interesting upbringing, 

mum doing amazing events. what was life like growing up? 

I had an amazing life growing 

up on a farm. We spent summers 

in the Sounds at our family bach 

and in the winter I was always up 

at Mt Olympus. 

Spending time on the snow was 

a big part of my life. I learnt to 

ski there at three-years-old and 

snowboard at 16. 

I actually did my minor 

at art school in snowboard 

photography just so I could get 

up the mountain every week 

and justify it. I’ve been really 

involved in the early days of the 

snowboard industry in New 

Zealand. It makes me who I am 

and it makes me tick. 

Were you ever keen to get into 

fashion after growing up with a 

mother who’s highly prominent 

in the industry? 

Fashion isn’t something I’ve 

felt a huge desire to get into, I 

chose to pursue art which isn’t 

highly lucrative but I’m working 

on it. I used to model when I was 

15 through to about 20 – but it 

wasn’t serious at all. 

I was just learning to 

snowboard when I got the biggest 

bruise on my hip. Soon after 

that happened I had to fly up to 

Auckland for my first advertising 

campaign for a New Zealand 

designer and it was with Helen 

Cherry.

give way to creating art 

It was a big deal and I turned 

up all bruised expecting them to 

say: ‘Who is this chick from the 

boonies? What’s she doing?’ 

Christine Webster shot the 

campaign and I idolised her as 

a photographer and here was 

me this little rookie snowboard 

model chick. I was mortified. That 

exemplifies my non-attachment 

to the fashion industry. 

I did draw on my photography 

skills though and I was the official 

photographer for New Zealand 

Fashion Week when I moved back 

to the country. 

What was school like? 

I went to Hororata Primary 

then Selwyn House before 

going to boarding school at St 

Margaret’s College. 

After high school I went to 

Christchurch Polytechnic where I 

did a degree in craft design. 

I actually failed university 

entrance for art so I couldn’t get 

into art school on my marks. 

So I took the year off and 

snowboarded every day and 

painted at night and filled up 

work books so I could get myself 

in. I then did my post graduate 

at Elam School of Fine Arts 

majoring in sculpture. 

What did you do after 

studying? 

I had been institutionalised my 

ENTHUSIASTIC: Anneke Stewart on the slopes with her 

four-year-old daughter Phoenix. 

whole life so I decided to move 

overseas where I spent 10 years. 

What was it like living 

overseas? 

I tried to get art-related jobs 

but they wouldn’t recognise my 

degree there. While I was there I 

got very good at graffiti. 

My partner of the time was 

an aerosol artist so I went out to 

do public walls with him quite 

often. I was part of a paint jam in 

Brighton with about 150 graffiti 

artists from all around Europe 

and I was one of three girls. They 

were watching me paint and 

asked me how long I’ve been 

doing it . . . it was probably about 

my fifth ever piece and they were 

really impressed. 

After living in the UK I moved 

to Morzine, France and I got a job 

as a photographer. The first gig 

was at the Arctic Circle up the top 

of Sweden to an event called The 

Battle which is legendary in the 

snowboarding world. I ended up 

meeting a pro rider from Sweden 

and we ended up dating for four 

years. 

SUNSET: Mandala light box created from an original photo 

taken near Shag Rock after the February 22, 2011, earthquake. 

Why did you make the move 

back to New Zealand? 

After the Sweden saga I 

came home. I became unwell 

and developed really bad 

endometriosis. 

I was close to being booked in 

to get surgery but I wanted time 

to get my body strong so I moved 

to Wanaka. Being a Reiki master 

I was aware that what was going 

on could be fixed holistically. I 

worked with a natural healer and 

nutritionist for a year and I got 

rid of it completely without any 

surgery. 

You got engaged earlier this 

year, how did you meet you 

partner? 

When I moved to Wanaka I 

met my partner Anthony who’s a 

builder. We lived in Wanaka for a 

couple of years before moving to 

Leeston, then to the high country 

and now we’re in Sumner. We 

have two kids together – Phoenix 

who’s four and Knox who is twoand-a-half. 

After the endometriosis I was 

told I wouldn’t be able to conceive 

children easily so my children are 

miracles. He’s from the Taranaki 

so he’s a North Island boy but 

I managed to move him down 

here because I’m a hardcore 

Cantabrian.

Big opportunity for models 

UP-AND-COMING: Papanui’s 

Lucy Wyma, 20. 

• By Annabelle Dick 

TWO NORTH-WEST residents 

will strut their stuff at New 

Zealand’s most popular fashion 

showcase in Auckland this 

week. 

Rebecca Dore, of Burnside, 

and Lucy Wyma, of Papanui, 

will take to the catwalk at New 

Zealand Fashion Week. 

Portfolio Model Agency 

director Mel Radford Brown 

said the girls are some of the top 

within the agency and reflects 

the talent Christchurch has to 

offer. 

“This speak volumes of 

Portfolio Models and the calibre 

of our models,” Mrs Radford 

Brown said. 

Miss Dore, 21, is Portfolio 

Model Agency’s booker as well 

as a model for the organisation. 

This is her fourth time walking 

at fashion week and she said 

she’s thrilled to be a part of one 

of the more extravagant shows 

of the week. 

“I did the wedding show last 

year and it was beautiful. It’s 

the best show of the week and 

it’s exciting to be a bride,” Miss 

Dore said. 

She has also walked in Australia’s 

premier event Mercedes- 

Benz Fashion Week in Sydney. 

Lucy Wyma, 20, also walked 

in the latest Mercedes-Benz 

Fashion Week and will be at 

New Zealand Fashion Week. 

The young up-and-comer 

was recently signed to modelling 

agency IMG International 

which has boasted the likes 

of Gisele Bundchen, Miranda 

Kerr and Kate Moss. 

Georgia Greig, 19, of Ilam, 

will accompany the girls in what 

will be her first appearance at 

New Zealand Fashion Week. 

BREAK OUT: 

Newcomer 

Georgia Greig, 

19, lives in Ilam. 

Miss Greig only just stepped 

onto the modelling scene a year 

ago and is excited to show at the 

event seeing as she didn’t even 

attend the casting for the event. 

“It’s pretty overwhelming to 

be chosen because being a student 

it wasn’t financially viable 

to attend casting so I just hung 

back and let them know I was 

available to be booked directly,” 

she said. 

The models will walk in the 

wedding show tomorrow and 

Saturday.

Bridal Show 

Plan your honeymoon 

THE COST and time it takes 

to organise a honeymoon 

can often be underestimated 

when couples are planning 

their weddings. 

But at Sunday’s With This 

Ring Bridal Show, there will 

be a number of exhibitors 

there to take the stress out 

of it. 

Hello World Travel’s 

Rangiora and Rolleston 

branches will be at the show, 

with a group of experts 

to talk to people who are 

looking into the planning. 

Rangiora branch 

managing director Liz 

Ditmer said often people 

had unrealistic expectations 

of how much honeymoons 

could cost. 

She said people also had to 

start planning their trips well 

in advance, and their teams 

would be at next Sunday’s 

show to help people do so. 

“We’re just there to start 

pointing them in the right 

direction,” she said. 

“We can make 

appointments and sit down 

with them at a later time to 

talk in more detail.” 

This year’s show will have 

85 exhibitors ranging from 

wedding and bridesmaid 

gowns, photography,

honeymoons, flowers, 

stationary, caterers, venue 

hire and many more. 

On top of that, there will 

be more than $22,000 of 

prizes to be won. 

A wedding and 

honeymoon at Norfolk 

Island will be up for grabs, as 

well as a honeymoon at The 

Edgewater Resort and Spa in 

Rarotonga. 

Venue hire up to the value 

of $4050 for Wigram Base 

will be up for grabs, along 

with many more prizes and 

giveaways. 

Two fashion catwalks will 

be held, one at 11am and the 

other at 2pm, showcasing 

wedding gowns and mother 

of the bride outfits.

at the Air Force Museum

Flanker rewarded 

HEARTBREAK FOR MAGS: Villa and St Margaret’s players 

embrace following the secondary school girls final.

Villa takes hockey final 

ST MARGARET’S College 

and Burnside High School 

both came agonisingly close 

to taking the biggest prizes in 

Christchurch secondary school 

hockey. 

The top secondary school 

hockey teams were found on 

Friday night at Marist Park. 

After a hard fought season 

which began at the start of 

May it was down to just two in 

the finals of the boys and girls 

school’s premier league hockey 

competition. 

St Margaret’s met Villa Maria 

College in the girls final. A tight, 

low scoring encounter saw Villa 

take the spoils 1-0. 

Villa and St Margaret’s 

finished the round-robin 

as the top two teams in the 

competition. St Margaret’s 

defeated Rangi Ruru 4-1 in last 

week’s semi-final while Villa 

topped Christchurch Girls’ High 

School 3-2. 

The boys final was played 

between Christ’s College and 

Burnside High School. 

Christ’s proved to strong winning 

the game 3-1. 

It was a valiant effort by Burnside 

just to make the final. They 

snuck into the play-offs as the 

fourth qualifier and then upset 


2-0 in last week’s semi-final. 

• By Gordon Findlater 

BURNSIDE HIGH School 

flanker Cam Russell was 

rewarded for his efforts during 

this year’s UC Championship at 

Saturday’s grand final. 

Russell was the joint winner of 

the Philip McDonald Memorial 

Medal with Shirley No. 8 Cruz 

Topai-Aveai. 

Former winners of the medal 

include the likes of Super Rugby 

players Damian McKenzie and 

Mitchell Drummond. 

The winner of the award is 

decided by opposition coaches 

throughout the season. After 

each game they submit who they 

think were the top three performers 

on the opposition side. 

Russell is in his fourth season 

with the first XV. He made his 

Burnside debut in 2013 as a year 

10. He was part of the Burnside 

team that conceded 100 points 

against Christchurch BHS that 

season. 

Now in his second season as 

the team’s captain, Russell has 

played a large part in Burnside’s 

rise in the UC Championship. 

He scored nine tries last year 

and has gone one better this year 

with 10. 

The flanker now has the 

chance to help his team win 

entry to the national co-ed competition 

which takes place next 

month.

Teen Tall Ferns 

YEAR 12 Rangi Ruru Girls’ 

School student Esra McGoldrick 

will represent the New Zealand 

under-19 basketball team. 

McGoldrick and Charlotte 

Whittaker, of Rangiora High 

School, are Canterbury’s two 

representatives in the squad. 

The Junior Tall Ferns will play 

China in two games at Cowles 

Stadium next month. 

McGoldrick, 16, represented 

Canterbury in a third place 

finish at last month’s under-19 

provincial championships. She 

was named in the New Zealand 

team at the conclusion of the 

tournament. 

McGoldrick should have 

represented New Zealand at under-19 

level last year. However, 

she missed out on the Junior Tall 

Ferns tour to China after tearing 

her ACL (anterior cruciate 

ligament) during the national 

under-17 provincial final 12 

months ago. 

“That was terrible. My surgery 

was in October and I missed out 

on a lot of stuff, including the 

tour to China.” 

“It’s going to be my first time 

representing New Zealand in 

front of a home crowd. There’s 

going to be a lot of supporters – 

it should be great.” 

She has previously represented 

New Zealand at under-16 and 

17 level. 

McGoldrick will play for 

Rangi Ruru tonight when they 

host St Andrew’s College in the 

semi-final of the Whelan Trophy 

competition. 

Rangi Ruru qualified for the 

play-offs after finishing at the 

top of their pool, with 12 wins 

and two losses this season. 

McGoldrick puts a lot of her 

recent development down to the 

coaching and support available 

at the school. She previously attended 

Rangiora New Life School 

before making the switch. 

She will also represent the 

Halswell premier women’s team 

on Saturday. They’re led by 

Canterbury Wildcats coach Lori 

McDaniel, and are currently 

third in the Canterbury premier 

competition. 

BALLERS: 

Esra 

McGoldrick 

(right) and 

Charlotte 

Whittaker 

will represent 

New Zealand 

against China. 

McGoldrick plays in the 

centre and power-forward 

positions. 

She’s looking forward to 

testing herself against the best 

under-19 players from China. 

“They definitely have height. 

They have a girl that’s 6”7 

(2.04m). They’re also great 

shooters and can play quick with 

the ball. It’s going to be pretty 

intense.” 

The two games against China 

will act as preparation ahead 

of the team’s under-19 Oceania 

World Championship qualifying 

tournament at the end of the 

year. 

New Zealand play China on 

September 7 and 8 at Cowles 

Stadium.

eStar working to 

attract best IT talent 

Nurturing new talent and better 

engaging employees will reach new 

heights at eStar, as the world class 

e-commerce platform and leading 

Christchurch tech company strives to 

attract the brightest IT professionals. 

eStar’s outreach activities look 

four to five years ahead, says Chief 

Operations Officer Kevin Rowland. 

eStar ‘lead team’ staff attend careers 

events, visit secondary schools and 

recently supported Shadowtech, 

with two female employees 

mentoring two secondary school girls for a day. 

The company is recruiting and will be looking 

for new talent at Ara Institute of Canterbury’s 

Industry Expo on 25 August, having previously 

employed Ara graduates (when Ara was CPIT). 

Finding the right skills mix for retail IT is 

challenging, Rowland says. With around 70 

staff, eStar designs and develops the software 

that powers the websites and the online retail 

systems of retailers including Briscoes and 

Country Road. 

Technical skills are of course essential, but ‘soft 

skills’ such as communication and interaction 

can really set candidates apart. “When we 

interview I am always looking for personality. We 

do a technical test/developer half day immersion 

and everybody freaks over the fact that it’s a tech 

test, but if you can do what you say on your CV 

then it’s not an issue. You’re in a live ‘dev’ room, 

with the people you are going to be working 

with. I not only encourage people to talk to each 

other but it has to happen because that helps me 

see what they’re like. 

“Most people who work in IT are introverts. 

It’s what makes us good programmers; it’s part 

of our personality. 

“It’s OK if candidates are a bit meek, but I 

have to see some kind of spark. I can throw a 

stone into Christchurch and find graduates 

who can do IT. They have got to have that bit of 

enthusiasm.” 

To find out more about working for eStar 

and other leading Christchurch companies

HEALTH & BEAUTY 


Reclaim your 

identity 

When it comes to dentures, Christchurch people 

have access to world-leading techniques and oral 

aesthetics right on their doorstep. 

At his Montreal street studio Lovebite, 

internationally renowned dental 

technician Richard Greenlees creates 

beautiful bespoke dentures with small 

nuances in the fabrication, colour and 

shape, and even slight imperfections to 

create a uniquely individual smile. 

There is no need for dentures to look 

false. Richard takes a great deal of 

satisfaction in making bespoke dentures 

that look 100 per cent real and natural, 

personally guiding his patients through 

the transformation process to craft a 

smile that reflects their individuality and 

personality, and recreates their natural 

pre-denture smile. 

Not only do Lovebite teeth look 

real, the whole structure and shape of 

the patient’s face is transformed with 

Richard’s top-of-the-line dentures, 

something he calls his signature ‘denture 

lift’. 

“With appropriate facial support, the 

facial tissues are brought back into the 

correct position, the lips are reformed, 

and beauty is restored,” he says. 

it is the interior architecture of a 

Lovebite denture that helps to create a 

more youthful appearance by recovering 

the face and skeletal shape that can be 

lost after years of wearing dentures. 

As the smile is transformed, so are the 

patient’s confidence, and the way they 

feel about themselves. 

Richard’s vast experience includes 

15 years of running his own clinic in 

the prestigious harley st, London, 

where he treated people from all walks 

of life, from barrow boys to the rich 

and famous, politicians, actors and 

musicians. 

his techniques are recognised as 

world-leading among his international 

peers, and he is regularly asked to 

lecture and run courses worldwide. 

Miles Cone (DMD, Ms, FACP, CDt), 

a prosthodontist from Oregon, UsA, 

said in November 2015: “Richard 

Greenlees’ craftsmanship is as stunning 

as it is unique. There is liberation in 

the calculated imperfection, indeed an 

asperity that reflects a purely human 

element.” 

in addition to dentures, Richard also 

carries out crown and bridge, veneer 

and implant work, in conjunction 

with like-minded dental surgeons who 

complement his creative and aesthetic 

work. 

“teeth are as different as fingerprints 

and vary greatly depending on a person’s 

age, sex and race. Dentures from 

Lovebite reflect this, and are as unique 

and individual as the people they are 

made for,” says Richard. 

There is nothing more satisfying for 

Richard than to see his patients leave 

the Lovebite studio with their selfconfidence 

and identity restored, as well 

as their smile. 

Confidence and beauty is restored with a new 

denture by Lovebite. 

As the smile is transformed, so are the 

patient’s confidence, and the way they 

feel about themselves.

Proven 

formula 

combats 

colds & flu 

Research has shown certain herbs and natural 

ingredients can dramatically reduce the chances 

of succumbing to colds and flu. 

One example of a proven formula is Go 

Healthy ‘Go Vir-Defence’. Due to the high 

potency extracts it contains, one or two capsules 

daily are usually sufficient to keep the immune 

system at optimum efficiency; however, at the 

onset of headaches, sore throat, body aches 

etc. the dose should be increased to one or two 

capsules up to three times daily. 

Go Vir-Defence contains: Olive Leaf Extract 

- a popular ingredient used in the treatment of 

immune attacks for its strong anti-microbial 

properties. 

Garlic Extract - effective in combatting 

bacteria, viruses and fungi and supporting the 

immune system. Andrographis Extract - has 

powerful immune-enhancing properties. 

Echinacea Extract - a natural antibiotic and 

infection fighter. 

Pau D’ Arco Extract - helps enhance the 

immune system. 

Citrus Bioflavonoids - work with Vitamin 

C and support the immune system as well 

as strengthening capillaries and reducing 

inflammation. 

Vitamin C - a powerful antioxidant that helps 

counteract bacteria and viral infections. 

Elderberry Extract - provides immune support. 

Zinc - an essential mineral for the immune 

system and general health.

Essential 

nutrients for 

health & vitality 

After noticing patients were 

experiencing gut, bowel and 

digestive issues that often led to 

more serious chronic health 

conditions, two Australian 

Naturopaths conducted 

extensive research. This 

revealed that although 

the patients were generally 

eating good food, they were not 

obtaining all the nutrients required 

for good health, with one of the 

main problems being the digestive 

system. 

Also, with the soils crops are 

grown in being depleted of many 

trace elements and other essential 

nutrients, the crops are also 

depleted. 

If we do not obtain all the 

required nutrients, our body will 

compensate to some degree, but 

a lack of too many nutrients will 

eventually lead to health issues. 

Knowing this, the naturopaths 

developed Vital Greens, a nutrientdense 

powdered formula that 

provides superior absorption and 

comprehensive nutrition. 

Vital Greens contains a balanced 

blend of nutritionally rich

Father’s Day - 

Keep Dad on 

his toes 

Every three hours a New Zealand man dies from a 

preventable disease. Yet most “blokes” wait until 

something goes wrong before seeking help! 

Men are not as diligent at taking 

care of themselves as women, 

according to health practitioners 

around the world. 

So men, what about some 

preventative maintenance for 

your body, as you would give your 

car? And women, let’s try harder 

to encourage our men to take care 

of themselves. Small lifestyle 

changes can prevent or delay the 

onset of many health problems. 

When diabetes, arthritis or 

stiff, aching joints are a problem, 

and more time is spent sitting, 

it’s important to have an easy and 

enjoyable way to remain active. 

Participating in sports or not, 

watching TV, reading the paper, 

or talking on the phone, an 

Aircycle circulation booster can 

keep you moving while you sit.. 

Keeping Dad on his toes with 

a Father’s Day gift of an Aircycle 

will keep his blood pumping, 

muscles strong and help relieve 

pain.

Davis Cup event returns to Christchurch 

The New Zealand Davis 

Cup team are heading back to 

Christchurch to take on Pakistan in 

the Asia-Oceania Group 1 second 

round playoff. The Tie is being 

held from Friday 16 September to 

Sunday 18 September, indoors at 

Z Energy Wilding Park. 

Kiwi Olympians Michael Venus 

and Marcus Daniell ranked 41 

and 58 respective in the world 

for doubles have been named 

alongside Finn Tearney ranked 

381, Rubin Statham at 444 in 

singles. If Statham takes the court 

he will beat Onny Parun’s New 

Zealand Davis Cup record of the 

most ties played for his country of 

25 ties. 

It is likely Pakistan will select 

their doubles expert Aisam 

Qureshi who is 36-years-old and 

ranked 48th in doubles. Aqeel 

Khan is another likely veteran 

who should be selected. 

New Zealand lead Pakistan 

3-1 in head-to-head clashes. The 

last time the two sides clashed it 

was a 4-1 win for New Zealand 

in Myanmar in 2013 which was 

abandoned. 

Christchurch has been the home 

of Davis Cup ties since 2014, with 

a win against Chinese Taipei in 

2014 and a close 3-2 loss to India 

in the 2015 semi-finals. Tennis 

Canterbury is extremely excited 

to host yet another Davis Cup tie 

for the third consecutive year. This 

is a return to the glory days that 

has seen Tennis Canterbury host 

numerous Davis Cup ties against 

some of the superpower of world 

tennis. 

Z Energy Wilding Park is one 

of the oldest sport venues still in 

operation in all of Canterbury. 

It has played host to Davis 

Cup matches as far back as the 

1910’s and 20’s. Much like many 

of Christchurch’s other most 

important sporting facilities 

Wilding Park was severely 

impacted by the Christchurch 

Earthquake impacted in both 

September 2009 and February 

2010. 

The rebuilding process has 

been a long one. Mixed emotions 

were felt at the demolition of the 

iconic Memorial Stands, host to 

numerous Davis Cup Tie and other 

International Tennis Federation 

events. However it was also the first 

bit of tangible progress in relation 

to the redevelopment of Wilding 

Park and proved to generate 

some real excitement amongst the 

tennis community. Strengthening 

work on the facility’s structural 

steel and refurbishment of the 

administration and function 

space erased any signs of the 

earthquake damage and provided 

the wider community with some 

great function space. 

The final stage of development 

will see the reinstatement of 

six additional outdoor courts, 

the development of a grassy 

embankment for spectator viewing 

and social spaces, including a 

barbeque area. The facility will 

continue to be available to the 

local communities, including 

school, charitable organisations 

and, in some cases, other sports 

outside of normal hours. The 

final stage of development work 

is scheduled to be gin in the 

coming month with a completion 

date of mid November, just in 

time for the Summer of Tennis. 

This development will allow 

Canterbury to again host National 

Age Group events, International 

Events and, of course, future 

Summer Davis Cup ties. 

This year’s Davis Cup tie is a 

three day event. Two singles will 

be played on Friday, doubles on 

Saturday and the two reverse 

singles on Sunday. Matches are 

the best of five sets. Tickets and 

Corporate Boxes are available. 

Please go to www.tennis.kiwi for 

further information and pricing.

Cantabrian Tennis Player USA Bound 

On the 1st June 2016, Jack Tiller 

signed a national letter of intent 

with Southeastern Oklahoma State 

University, located in Durant, 

Oklahoma, USA. 

From the age of 15 Jack’s overall 

goal in tennis was to gain a 

scholarship to train, play and study 

in the United States of America. 

Through taking part in Canterbury 

Performance squads since the age of 

12, he constantly saw older players 

being granted scholarships and 

given opportunities to experience 

American lifestyle through 

tennis while gaining invaluable 

experiences. Seeing others excel 

in the college tennis system 

encouraged him to start 

preparation for enrolment in 

Fall 2016. 

In October of 2015, Jack 

got in contact with John 

Gardner, the head coach in 

the Nelson/Marlborough region 

and his company, Inspire Sports. 

John’s expertise guided Jack 

through a comprehensive checklist 

of what he needed to achieve to 

reach his ultimate goal of signing 

with a college that fitted in well with 

what he wanted. John’s personalised 

programme was a great help. It 

began with initial meetings with 

Jack and his father so John could 

understand what they were looking 

for in a college. John then set out a 

‘Plan of attack” on how they would 

go about getting a contract. They 

began working together through 

each stage, which included NCAA 

registration, skills video, personal 

website, SAT and GPA results and 

working through what colleges Jack 

wanted to contact. Jack believes that 

it would not have been possible for 

him to work through everything 

that needed to be done without 

John’s outstanding expertise and 

knowledge. Jack found John’s 

attention to detail and reliability to 

be outstanding. 

Jack began talks with the coach 

from Southeastern Oklahoma State 

University in March of this year. The 

coach expressed his interest in Jack 

joining the college team and, after 

talking through email, the college 

made an offer for Jack to attend 

their college and become part of the 

Savage Storm athletic family. After 

the initial paper work, Jack signed a 

national letter of intent, committing 

Jack to attending the university. 

Through his years of training, 

Jack’s ultimate goal was to get to 

university. Jack is a self-professed 

‘late bloomer’ in tennis. During his 

junior years, he describes himself as 

a mediocre player who was always 

outside the top player category. 

Through growth, maturity and the 

help of the Canterbury training 

programme, he was able to play 

smarter tennis and achieve positive 

results. Coaching by Alistair Hunt 

and Matt Meredith has afforded 

Jack the opportunity to learn from 

the best and use their expertise on 

court, creating a huge advantage. 

Jack has represented Canterbury 

in multiple ties including 

Canterbury vs Marlborough, 

City vs Country, Canterbury 

team’s event and also the 

Canterbury men’s team. In 2015 

he won the under 18 Canterbury 

Championships, a great result to put 

on his college application form. 

Jack has always loved the fact that 

tennis is mostly an individual sport, 

results are based on a player’s own 

ability and there are no excuses. Jack 

has always enjoyed competing in 

Canterbury Interclub representing 

his club of Elmwood. He is grateful 

to Ashley Forbes for giving him 

the opportunity to play top level 

tennis in the premiere grade against 

great players like James Meredith, 

Remi Fennon and other top rated 

players in the region. Jack feels that 

it through playing top level players 

that he has learned the most, even if 

it involved losing. 

During tennis season, Jack trains 

or plays every day of the week. Each 

week also includes four sessions of 

hitting, two fitness sessions and two 

days of interclub matches on the 

weekends. During the off season 

Jack keeps training with hitting 

three days a week and a fitness 

session and match play on the 

weekends. 

Jack chooses to keep his future 

goals simple. His immediate goal 

is to do the best he can to prepare 

for college and to give himself the 

best chance of success. For Jack, 

this means being fit and healthy, 

requiring him to train as well as he 

can every time he gets on the court. 

Over the long term, Jack plans to 

take every opportunity he can at 

Southeastern Oklahoma State in 

order to reach his full potential 

whilst there, not just in tennis, but 

also in academic life. 

For younger players aspiring to 

play college tennis, Jack’s advice is 

to never give up. Jack recalls many 

moments in his time of playing 

tennis when he thought he wasn’t 

good enough, or wasn’t able to 

compete to his full potential. Not 

TENNIS CANTERBURY 2016 / 2017 CALENDAR 

being the best player in the region 

or the nation is not a problem; 

it’s a challenge. By embracing 

that challenge, working hard and 

training, it is possible to shorten the 

gap between the different levels in 

order to compete in top level tennis. 

Have a goal and go for it! 

Jack invites anyone interested in 

college tennis to feel free to ask any 

questions. He will be happy to try 

and answer!

Putting a friendly 

face on tennis 

If you were to visit Bishopdale Tennis Club on a Saturday morning, you would find the 

courts buzzing with people as the junior programme is in full swing. The Kiwi programme 

for 5-7 year-olds starts at 8:30am, followed by the 8+ junior programme. Players are 

supported by a host of parents, uncles, aunties, and siblings. 

At the heart of all this activity is the friendly face of Andrea Stanton, the club’s junior 

administrator. Andrea has filled this role for the past seven years, bringing a personable 

manner and professionalism to her role that has created a positive, friendly culture and a 

highly successful junior programme. For this reason, Andrea has been named Junior Club 

Volunteer of the Year by Tennis Canterbury. 

Since Andrea first took on the administrator role, the club has seen a steady increase 

from seven junior teams to 15. The club currently has approximately 130 juniors. Andrea 

knows each of them – and their parents - by name. Her warm personality makes her an easy 

“go-to” person for those involved with the club. She is well organised and committed to her 

role, often putting in a huge number of courtside hours in support of each and every team. 

Through volunteers like Andrea, Bishopdale Tennis has been able to develop a very 

family orientated programme. The club welcomes players of all ages and abilities and offers 

some of the best facilities in Christchurch. Players are invited to come in for a drink at the 

club house to get to know other members. Bishopdale Tennis Club is located at 35 Leacroft 

Street, next to Bishopdale Park. 

Whether you would like play socially or competitively, come to Bishopdale Tennis Club 

to meet Andrea and their other friendly volunteers.

Have Fun and Get Fit 

with Cardio Tennis 

Looking for a way to get fit, have fun and 

meet new people? Cardio Tennis is a fitness 

programme offered at tennis clubs across 

Canterbury. Combining the best features of 

tennis with cardiovascular exercise, Cardio 

Tennis delivers a fun, full-body, calorieburning 

aerobic workout ¬– even if you have 

never played tennis before. 

Cardio Tennis uses low-compression tennis 

balls which travel at a slower speed, making 

it easier for a beginner to hit the ball. More 

advanced players will be challenged by a 

range of activities that cater to all skill levels. 

Cardio Tennis works by raising participants’ 

heart rates into their aerobic training zone. At 

the beginning of each session, participants 

are equipped with heart rate monitors before 

exercising to music and using a variety of 

modified equipment to elevate the heart 

rate. Like interval training, periods of high 

intensity are followed by short periods of rest. 

Cardio Tennis combines fun with 

spectacular success. Women can burn up to 

500 calories in a 60 minute workout. Men 

can burn up to 800 calories. Cardio Tennis 

coaches are Tennis NZ registered and trained 

to ensure that participants get a great workout 

while improving their tennis skills. 

Even if you’re not good at tennis, Cardio 

Tennis can provide a fun, social way to keep 

fit. Contact Tennis Canterbury to find a 

Cardio Tennis programme near you.

engaged, excited and motivated to 

participate. 

2. TACTICAL/PLAY Players 

think and make decisions about 

meaningful tennis situations. 

3. SKILLS Players have plenty 

of opportunities to improve their 

tennis skills. 

4. SOCIAL Players build social 

skills such as working cooperatively 

with a partner, building friendships, 

encouraging teammates and 

showing sportsmanship during game play. 

Coaching New Zealand Post Tennis Hot Shots 

coaching sessions are run by Tennis New Zealand 

October marks the beginning of Tennis 

Canterbury’s exciting tournament calendar 

for the 2016/17 season at Wilding Park. Chris 

Anderson and Rosemary Hargreaves, both 

experienced tournament co-coordinators, 

have been appointed to organise this year’s 

tournaments. 

As in previous years, the programme for 

junior tournaments will take place during 

each of the school holidays, starting with the 

Z Energy Junior Spring Open (2-7 October). 

Entries for the Spring Open are now being 

accepted online until the closing date of 23 

Sept 2016. Fact Sheets are available on the 

website for each tournament, and provide 

information for planning and for play as well 

as contact information for any questions. The 

tournament welcomes players from the 8 and 

under age group up to 18 years. 

All junior tournaments are open to any 

junior, regardless of age or ability. Players 

can be from any area, in New Zealand and 

internationally, except for the ASB Primary/ 

Intermediate Tournament on Show Weekend, 

which is replicated throughout the country 

for each area’s participation. 

Primary Sports Canterbury and School 

Sport Canterbury (Secondary Schools) also 



qualified coaches. Our qualified coaches teach 

kids to play in fun, supportive and interactive 

sessions. Lessons generally run for between 30 and 

60 minutes. NZPTHS coaching 

sessions can be one-on-one or in a 

group – ask your local venue what 

options are available. 

Community Play Community 

Play is designed to give kids 

the chance to have a hit in a 

supportive environment where the 

emphasis is on fun, not coaching. 

The Community Play program 

is conducted in clubs and centres 

New Zealand-wide by parents, 

club volunteers and NZPTHS 

coaches.
