combine 

for concert 

extravaganza 

Christ’s College’s Tom Kelly was 

one of the more than 120 students 

who came together on Wednesday 

from his school, Rangi Ruru Girls’ 

School and St Margaret’s College 

to play in a combined concert band 

and string ensemble. 

Christ’s College director of music 

Robert Aburn said collaborating 

with other schools to present a 

combined concert gave the young 

musicians a focal point, which was 

instrumental in creating a polished 

performance. 

The Orchestral Extravaganza 

concert took place at Christ’s 

College. 

Children’s trust funding in doubt 

• By Julia Evans 

PRINCIPALS are 

concerned that funding 

for a group which 

provides support for 

quake-stressed children 

and parents from northwest 

schools could come 

to an end.

Limited appointments available. T&Cs apply 

support for their families over 

the past three years, but 

funding will finish at the 

end of the year. 

Although it has reapplied 

for more funding, it is 

proving difficult, said trust 

manager Ginny Larsen. 

This comes after 

principals from Belfast, 

Mairehau, Papanui, 

St Albans, Redwood,

their concern about stressaffected

managing anxiety-related issues. 

“Neighbourhood trust has 

been fantastic, but it needs to be 

more effectively funded to do its

FROM

EDITOR’S 

DESK 

NOR’WEST NEWS 

News........................................3-7 

It is a shame that so many vital services 

offered by non-Government 

organisations in our city are reliant 

on philanthropic and Government 

funding. 

Almost every year, they have 

to fill the myriad of forms as 

they apply again and again in the 

hopes of securing money for vital 

programmes. It is like facing losing 

your job every year. 

Neighbourhood Trust finds itself 

in this position with the counselling 

role it offers quake-stressed 

children. Principals are worried 

that if they do not find funding, 

kids will not get the support they 

need and if principals are concerned 

we should be concerned 

(page 1). 

There was a bit of a buzz around 

Tane Apanui’s idea for a train 

service that will go from North 

Canterbury, through Papanui and 

into the city. We tracked him down 

to have a bit of yarn (page 5)

Cycleway nears completion 


THE PAPANUI Parallel 

Cycleway has entered the final 

stages of its construction. 

Completion of the Papanui 

section of the city council’s 

$156 million project is set for 

June. 

The route will connect 

Northlands Shopping Centre 

and the Northern Line Cycleway 

to the central city, offering a 

Museum guide a permanent exhibit 

• By Tom Doudney 

THE AIR Force Museum’s oldest 

and longest-serving guide is used to 

showing people the exhibits but now 

he is part of one himself. 

A cardboard cut-out of Burnside 

resident Laurie Turner, 93, is among 

about 30 currently positioned around 

the museum to celebrate the 80th anniversary 

of the Royal New Zealand 

Air Force. 

A total of 80 such cut-outs 

of those who have served RNZAF 

were created, each accompanied 

with information about the person’s 

career. More will soon be placed in the 

museum. 

They comprise a diverse selection of 

individuals, with all manner of ranks 

safer option for cyclists than 

main arterial roads. 

An update from the city council 

said construction is progressing 

well from the northern end 

of Rutland St south to Bealey 

Ave. 

Businesses on Rutland St had 

struggled with construction 

right on their doorsteps and 

one dairy owner made just $40 

a day. 

and trades. 

The display was launched at the Air 

Tattoo at Ohakea last month, where it 

was viewed by thousands. 

Mr Turner has been volunteering as 

a guide at the museum since it opened 

in 1987. His cut-out depicts him in his 

younger days with RNZAF. 

Having served as a bomb aimer 

during World War 2, Mr Turner returned 

to the RNZAF as an accounts 

officer in 1952. 

In 1955, he was posted to No. 14 

Squadron, which was about to finish 

its deployment to Cyprus. He assisted 

with the arrangements for the squadron’s 

move to Tengah, Singapore. 

He retired in 1973, after several 

decades managing the finances of the 

service. 

However, work has now 

moved further along the street. 

The cycleway is expected to 

attract new commuters, shoppers 

and recreational cyclists. 

“The major cycle routes aim to 

encourage new groups of people 

to try cycling as a commuting 

option by connecting suburbs, 

shopping areas, businesses, 

schools and sporting destinations,” 

said city council head of 

transport Chris Gregory. 

He said it’s very exciting for 

the city. 

“As each route nears completion, 

I think residents around 

the city can see the big picture 

coming together now as we 

develop this network.” 

Mr Gregory said the city 

council is aware that residents 

are getting anxious to begin 

using it.

In Brief 

CRANFORD REGENERATION 

Rural land in Papanui and St 

Albans is one step closer to 

being rezoned for residential 

development. The city council 

is opening public feedback on 

Thursday regarding the draft 

Cranford Regeneration Plan that 

would see 125ha of former farm 

land between McFaddens and 

Winters Rd redeveloped. The city 

council said it considers the edge 

of the basin suitable for residential 

development and proposes 

rezoning 38ha for housing. 

NAKED MAN 

Police were called to Leinster 

Rd on March 20 after reports 

of an intoxicated man running 

along the road naked. A unit was 

dispatched to the area but the 

man could not be located. 

TREE REMOVAL LIKELY 

A proposed widening of the St 

James cycleway at the junction 

with Harewood Rd would likely 

see the removal of trees. This 

comes as route options are being 

discussed for the extension of 

the cycleway from St James Park 

through the Papanui shopping 

area and past Papanui High 

School northwards. The trees are 

silver birches but Papanui-Innes 

Community Board member John 

Stringer urged residents to let him 

know if they have any concerns.

Veterinary practice 

Gizmo’s Adventure 

Gizmo, an 11 year old Ginger tabby 

from Sydney, presented to Catherine 

one morning with an acute left 

hindleg lameness. He wasn’t placing 

any weight on the leg and seemed 

in a lot of pain. Catherine suspected 

a femoral fracture due to his leg 

swinging and the obvious angulation 

mid femur. No other injuries were 

seen. He had normal neurological 

function. All his nails were scuffed and 

worn. Most often we see these injuries 

with road traffic accidents. Blood work 

the previous week was great. 

Catherine performed a digital xray to 

confirm her suspicions and Gizmo was 

immediately placed on intravenous 

fluids with pain relief ( a fentanyl CRI) 

and started on penicillin. A transverse 

femoral fracture located proximal third 

femur was diagnosed. His diaphragm 

was intact, as was his bladder and all 

his other abdominal organs looked 

fine. Surgery to repair the fracture or 

amputation were the only options 

available. This fracture couldn’t be 

left to just heal on its own. The clients 

were informed of the options – a 

referral to a specialist orthopaedic 

surgeon to plate the femur or IM 

pinning and cerclage wire performed 

at McMaster & Heap Vet practice. 

We repeated blood work to make 

sure Gizmo was still in good health to 

sustain an anaesthetic. The IM pinning 

option was adopted. His ongoing 

arthritic issues would have made 

losing a hindleg difficult for him to 

cope with, especially at 11 years old. 

Dr Michele McMaster performed the 

surgery within 24 hours of Gizmo 

being admitted. It is important 

with this type of injury to get those 

bone ends realigned as soon as 

possible. The anaesthetic and surgery 

went without a hitch. Gizmo was 

connected to our Cardell monitoring 

machine. The nurses can record his 

heart rate, blood pressure, breathing 

rate, body core temperature and

oxygen saturation every 5 minutes 

during his anaesthetic. All his vital 

signs were excellent. I placed a 

large intramedullary pin through 

the medullary cavity of his femur to 

reduce the fracture and align the 

ends of the femur. 

A single cerclage 

wire was also placed 

to create as much 

stability as possible. 

Post operative xrays 

confirmed perfect 

placement. Now the 

rest is up to Gizmo. 

Gizmo was discharged 

3 days later able to stand and get 

into his dirt tray, eating up a storm 

and with the surgical site looking 

great. He was starting to place the 

paw when he left here. He will be in a 

cage for 4-6 weeks to allow as much 

immobility as possible for fracture 

healing. I will remove the pin in about 

6-8 weeks once the fracture site has 

calloused and healed. Gizmo will be 

back weekly for us to check on his 

progress. A great outcome all around.

Tribute for Papanui 

historian and author 

Papanui Heritage Group chairman Murray Williams pens a tribute to 

Mollie Chalklen, a local Papanui historian 

MOLLIE FREEMAN Sharp (1930- 

2015) received her primary schooling at 

Broomfield, near Amberley, and then 

attended Christchurch Girls’ High School. 

After completing secondary school, she 

had set her heart on studying history at 

tertiary level. 

But Mollie’s father believed that university 

was not an appropriate destination 

for his daughter and she was encouraged 

to apply for a job in the Department 

of Health where her ability was soon 

recognised with promotion within the 

bureaucracy. 

In 1953, she married Neil Chalklen and 

later they moved into a new house at 76 

Sawyers Arms Rd opposite the Papanui 

Domain. 

In the 1970s and early 1980s, Mollie 

attended university classes on a part 

time basis, eventually graduating with a 

Bachelor of Arts in history and linguistics 

in 1983. 

The 1980s was to be a busy, but successful, 

decade in terms of her developing 

reputation as a local historian. In 1985, 

she completed The Church to the North of 

the River Avon, a publication that marked 

the 125th jubilee of St Luke the Evangelist. 

In 1990, she wrote a centennial publication 

for the local Cambrian Society. 

The Chalklen children had attended 

Papanui High School and her natural interest 

in the school was recognised when 

the old students’ association invited her to 

write a book commemorating the school’s 

50th jubilee.

passed 

away before 

she could 

complete 

her dream 

of writing a 

local history 

of Papanui.

RICHARD 

CHALKLEN 

The School at the Terminus, published in 

1986, was a superb analysis of the school’s 

history. It was based on meticulous research 

and the skilful use of a wide-range 

of relevant sources. 

While working on these and other 

publications, she chaired the Canterbury 

Women’s Regional Committee of the New 

Zealand Historic Places Trust, now Heritage 

New Zealand. 

She was also president, and later patron, 

of the Soil and Health Association and 

also found time to belong to the Canterbury 

Herb Society and the local branch of 

the New Zealand Iris Society. 

Unfortunately, Mollie did not manage 

to achieve two major ambitions. 

An analysis of some of her personal papers 

recently donated to the Papanui Heritage 

Group by her son Richard Chalklen, 

makes it obvious that she planned to write 

a general history of Papanui. 

She was also close to completing a 

master’s thesis on the topic of the religious 

settlements of North Canterbury. 

Unfortunately, in 2005, she suffered a 

stroke and found it impossible to complete 

these projects. 

However, Mollie will be remembered 

for her highly-significant contribution as a 

local historian and for her whole-hearted 

participation in community affairs.

Tane Apanui 

Our People 

One man’s bid for train system 

Tane Apanui talks to 

Noah Graham about his 

campaign to gain support 

for a railway system that 

would run from North 

Canterbury through 

Papanui and into the city 

How has it been trying to 

organise the Dash Rail project? 

I’m a one-man band, so it’s 

been very difficult trying to 

organise it. It’s been more than 

two years of work getting it 

done. The last city council were 

a bit more difficult to work with, 

whereas the new city council is a 

lot better to work with so that’s 

been good. I think we’ve elected 

the right people. 

Why is having a community 

railway system in Christchurch 

important? 

We Kiwis, we’re addicted to 

cars. When I was in Australia, 

I bought myself a nice Holden 

Commodore but then I took 

the train and I thought, wow, 

this is stress-free. You just jump 

on the train. One of the telling 

numbers for me that showed 

we need it was the suicide rate 

in Christchurch has doubled 

since the quakes. So I thought 

about the amount of stress it 

takes to break someone and if 

we are adding an extra 10 hours 

a week of stress because of the 

morning commute, when we 

could be sitting on a train using 

wi-fi just relaxing before work, I 

think it would go a long way to 

helping the mindset of the city. 

We’re fairly tense at the moment 

and we have been for a couple 

of years. So putting in a railway 

that needs to be done anyway, 

is going to help alleviate those 

daily stresses. 

What are some of the challenges 

you have faced while 

trying to get this system under 

way? 

One of the biggest obstructions 

I’ve faced when it comes 

to putting in rail is people don’t 

think it will succeed. But when 

you look at modelling for transport, 

the No 1 concern is travel 

CITY GOALS: Tane Apanui has aspirations to implement a Christchurch community railway 

network to turn the city’s transport system into something suitable for the 21st century.

time. The train is twice as fast as 

a bus and 50 per cent faster than 

a car. So when people wonder 

why the buses are failing, it’s because 

they are too slow. Whereas 

if they were to link up with a 

main system – this is where 

the rail should be a centrepiece 

– your whole public transport 

system would function better. 

At the moment, the buses are 

floundering all over the city. 

What was it like being a 

Hornby Ward candidate last 

year and why did you do it? 

It was difficult as well. Constituents 

base a lot of their trust 

on whether they have met you or 

not, regardless of what you are 

actually like. I would go doorknocking 

and people would say 

they have already made up their 

mind. That was hard. I’m a lucky 

person. No-one can achieve anything 

without the community 

around them. You can’t be successful 

without people lifting you 

up or putting you in a position to 

be successful. I suppose growing 

up in a poverty-stricken, broken 

home, I managed to get a couple 

of lucky breaks. I came over 

to Canterbury to play hockey. 

Even though I’m a high school 

drop-out from a poor family, I 

got these really cool opportunities. 

As a community, we need to 

recognise the people who have 

actually helped us get there. 

You’ve had a variety of jobs, 

including flying a plane, what 

was that like? 

It’s been a lot of work. I did 

eventually find a job when I was 

in Australia flying a 1942 de 

Havilland tiger moth and it was 

cold and miserable because of 

the open cockpit. The first five 

minutes you are like, wow, and 

then it hits you and you’re like, 

“you know, this open cockpit 

thing is not awesome.” I’ve done 

a wee bit of flying, but I didn’t do 

a lot in that job, it just didn’t pay 

enough. I’ve done more excavator 

and operator work I suppose 

in scrap steel yards. 

Could you tell me a bit about 

your family? 

We’re all over the place. We’re 

not what you’d call a tight family. 

I’ve got a sister who is awesome. 

She is the coolest sister in 

the world. She lived in Christchurch 

recently and is the chief 

finance officer of CerebralFix. 

She bought a house in Westport 

and is working in the epic centre 

over there and still working for 

CerebralFix. 

You also represented Canterbury 

in under-18 hockey, what 

was that like? 

I was born and raised in 

Greymouth so getting into a 

Canterbury side, especially for 

hockey, was a big deal. I think 

I was one of the first kids ever 

from the West Coast to make 

the Canterbury side. Then I went 

on to play for the Canterbury 

under-21s in 2000. We won 

both of those tournaments, the 

under-18 and the under-21s. 

Then, a few years later, I went on 

to coach the under-21s and we 

won both of those tournaments 

in 2004 and 2005 – back-to-back 

national tournaments. Playing 

for Canterbury was awesome, 

and was definitely one of the 

highlights of my career. 

What was coaching like compared 

to playing? 

Stressful. Coaching is stressful. 

When you’re playing, it’s a 

lot more fun. Coaching takes 

years off of your life expectancy. 

You do meet some cool people 

though. 

You’ve also worked with deaf 

and blind communities in Australia 

and New Zealand, how 

did you get into that? 

I was dating a sign language 

interpreter over in Australia, so 

I took up sign language. I did a 

couple of courses over there and, 

whenever I could help out with 

the deaf community, I did. I did 

a camp where you deal with people 

who are both deaf and blind. 

If you’ve not seen how deaf and 

blind people interact, it’s incredible. 

They’re quick and articulate 

and if they don’t like you, they let 

you know really quick. They’re 

incredible people. 

If you had spare time, what 

would you do? 

If I had time to play hockey, I’d 

play hockey. I’d go to the gym or 

I would play World Of Warcraft. 

Actually, the last time I logged 

on was probably a month and 

a half ago because I’ve been 

so flat out organising the train 

network.

Debut for young actor 


LAST FRIDAY the curtain 

went up for Alex Wilson’s debut 

theatre performance. 

He’s starring as Benji in 

Showbiz’s Priscilla, Queen of 

the Desert at the Isaac Theatre 

Royal, the production will run 

until April 8. 

Alex’s 

mother Cathy 

Wilson said 

the opportunity 

almost 

came out of 

nowhere. 

It was 

Alex Wilson 

Alex’s chorale 

teacher at 

Cobham Intermediate 

School who put his 

name forward to audition, that 

landed him the role. 

“I’ve always liked watching the 

plays that come to school, now I 

get to be in one,” Alex said. 

Benji is the son of one of 

Priscilla’s main characters, Tick, 

who is on a journey back to Alice 

Springs but is apprehensive 

about introducing his son to his 

flamboyant new lifestyle. 

The role is key in reinforcing 

the message of tolerance and 

diversity, Showbiz said. 

Alex shares the role with 

STAR: 11-year-old Alex Wilson landed his first acting role as 

Benji in Priscilla, Queen of the Desert. He is pictured with 

Markham Lee who plays Bob in the production.

another 11-year-old from Ashburton, 

Ollie Bubb – they’ve 

become great friends. 

Mrs Wilson said it’s a shame 

that after rehearsals the boys will 

not see each other again since 

they perform for alternate shows. 

Alex said that’s to help with 

the late nights, but they don’t 

worry him too much. 

“The hardest part is staying 

on top of your lines and remembering 

that you’re not the centre 

of the scene,” Alex said. 

WINNER: An award-winning garden in Willowview Drive. 

Ceremony recognises 

gardeners’ efforts 

FOR THE 27 th year running 

the Papanui-Innes Ward 

Community Pride Garden 

Awards have been presented. 

Last Monday awards were 

presented to residents and businesses 

with outstanding gardens 

and streetscapes at the Christchurch

gardens and 56 people 

attended the event hosted by 

the Papanui-Innes Community 

Board.

From kitchen fires to 

bathtub shenanigans 

Readers respond to 

Tane Apanui’s Pledge 

Me campaign to have 

passenger trains run 

from the city through 

Papanui and out to North 

Canterbury in order to 

ease traffic congestion. 

• By Mark Thomas – Fire Risk 

Management Officer 

OVER THE past couple of 

weeks, several people have had 

the misfortune of having the 

Fire Service called to their house 

because of a blaze in the kitchen. 

At one in Hoon Hay recently, 

firefighters had to smash a 

window to get into a well-locked 

house with a pot on fire on the 

stove. 

There’s got to be a sinking 

feeling when you get the call after 

having gone out that there’s a fire 

at your house. 

I know it’s easy to forget and, 

in this case, smoke was the only 

cause of damage to the house, 

but the possibility of a complete 

disaster is certainly there. You’ve 

just got to remember to switch 

elements off. 

A lady in a motorised 

wheelchair had the misfortune 

of becoming stuck up against a 

wall when the control panel for 

her scooter failed in Bellbrook 

Tce, Shirley. She obviously, and 

fortunately, had her phone with 

her and had the presence of mind 

to call 111. 

This wasn’t a fire. It was a call 

for help. And the St Albans crew 

that responded had to break in to 

her house to free her. It’s the sort 

of thing firefighters do without 

complaint. So well done to the St 

Albans crew. 

Finally, you know the stainless 

steel or brass grill in the plug hole 

of your bath? I bet you can’t get 

your finger down it, but a small 

child can – just. 

However, getting their finger 

out is another matter. The 

Addington crew had to spend 

almost an hour dismantling the 

bath in Hoon Hay Rd to do it. 

There was no injury, just a very 

relieved wee fellow when he was 

eventually freed. 

Karen Kingsford – Love, 

love, love this. Just what a progressive 

Canterbury should be 

shooting for. It would provide 

jobs and transportation and get 

people out of cars. It has to start 

somehow. We don’t want to be 

bogged down like Auckland. It’s 

really about great planners using 

what’s available and identifying 

and sourcing (locally if possible) 

what’s not. All the great 

cities have rail and have had for 

years. People want to live and 

work where there is great infrastructure. 

Cantabrians need to 

think about their future and the 

generations ahead. 

Mark Docherty – What a 

fantastic idea. About time the 

rail system was put to good use. 

Roger Larkins – Unfortunately, 

it is largely a feel good 

idea. . . to be effective, it needs 

to operate frequently and costeffectively. 

It also needs to go 

to and from places that people 

actually travel to. It also needs 

tracks that are available for use 

at the appropriate times. In 

Christchurch, the tracks have 

scheduled freight, the stations 

don’t meet the general community 

needs, the schedule would 

be infrequent and the cost of 

operation on a per journey basis 

will be either very high, or heavily 

subsidised. 

Andrew Deadman – About 

bloody time someone gave this 

a shot. 

Nicky Gibson – About time 

we had some sort of rail service 

back, just back from Australia 

and, wow, the trains are the way 

to go for sure. Come on New 

Zealand, bring our train service 

back. 

Christine Mottram – They 

should bring the railway station 

into the centre of Christchurch 

near the bus terminal so people 

can get off the train and catch a 

bus to where they need to go like 

in Auckland. For people coming 

in from North Canterbury and 

Rolleston, it would save some 

of the traffic congestion on the 

motorway. 

Jeff Bell – This is a case of 

shutting the gate after the horse 

has bolted. For years, places like 

Kaiapoi had a railway station 

with ample parking available – 

now there is housing there.

Teen track cyclist tops age group 

• By Andrew King 

ST MARGARET’S College 

student Jenna Borthwick was 

crowned under-15 champion 

at the age group national track 

championships in Cambridge 

this month. 

Her stunning effort of three 

wins and a second place helped 

take the 13-year-old from Ashburton 

to the title. 

“I am so proud and pretty 

excited,” she said. 

Competing with the Mid- 

South Canterbury team, she 

won the 5K points race, 1500m 

scratch race and 750m derby and 

was very close to winning the 

500m time trial. 

In 2016, Borthwick won the 

1500m scratch and 750m derby 

races and was third in the 500m 

time trial. 

Growing up in Ashburton, her 

love of cycling came from her 

father, who got her into the sport 

at the Tinwald Velodrome, when 

she was four. 

“I started getting competitive 

when I was 13 . . . I would really 

like to make a career out of it,” 

she said. 

Her team was helped out by 

four-time national road race 

champion Hayden Roulston, who 

is also from Ashburton. 

“He was so good at working 

with us on plans and our warmup. 

He is such a professional,” she 

said. 

It was her first time competing 

in the North Island and the taste 

SPORTS 

of it has left her wanting more. 

“I am looking forward to getting 

into next season . . . I have 

been given a two-week break by 

my coach and then I will start 

hitting the road again,” she said.

Student builds towards a career in triathlon 

• By Andrew King 

ST ANDREW’S College 

student Saxon Morgan won the 

Canterbury secondary schools 

triathlon championships last 

week at Scarborough ahead of 

great friend and rival Zachary 

Taylor. 

Morgan, 16, completed the 

350m swim, 9km bike and 3km 

run in 31min 57.6sec. He finished 

50sec ahead of Christchurch 

Boys’ High School student 

Taylor to come first overall in 

the under-19 category. 

Taylor’s brother, William, 

came third in the overall standings, 

but first in the under-14 

individual category and only 

24sec behind his older brother. 

“Zac (Taylor) was my main 

competition in the race and we 

both got into clear water in the 

swim and then he tried to pull 

away on the bike, but I matched 

his pace and surged in my run 

to take the win,” Morgan said. 

He said he and Taylor do a 

lot of training together and it is 

good to have that competitiveness 

between mates. 

All competitors start the race 

at the same time, but when they 

finish, they are separated off 

into individual categories arranged 

by age. 

Morgan is looking to make a 

career out of triathlon, and will 

head to Europe with his family 

in April for four months. 

“While I am over there, I will 

do a lot of training and compete 

in a few races to see if I like it,” 

he said. 

He spends about 15 hours 

a week training – three hours 

running, four on the bike and 

four in the pool and ocean. 

Before he heads overseas, 

Morgan is focusing on the 

upcoming New Zealand 

schools triathlon national 

championships on Thursday in 

Wanganui. 

“I feel like I am ready for the 

nationals after this win. I’m 

feeling confident,” he said. 

Overall results 

First: Saxon Morgan, St 

Andrew’s, 31min 57.6sec 

Second: Zachary Taylor, 

Christchurch Boys, 32min 

47.6sec 

Third: William Taylor, 

Christchurch Boys, 33 min 

11.4sec 

Fourth: Sola Kuwasaki, 

Cashmere High School, 

33min 23.6sec 

SPENT: St Andrew’s College 

student Saxon Morgan showed 

a clean pair of heels to win the 

Canterbury secondary schools 

triathlon championships last week.

App will keeps students in touch with Mairehau High 


MAIREHAU HIGH School 

students Kees Gifford-Whanau 

and Michael Scanlan are excited 

about keeping in touch with 

their school through its new 

app. 

The app is set to be released in 

the coming weeks. 

School deputy principal 

Rebecca Swanson said the idea 

came after a staff discussion 

about how to make it easier for 

parents and the community to 

find out more information about 

the school. 

“With society’s ever increasing 

reliance on mobile devices, we 

thought an app was the perfect 

option,” she said. 

Another driver was the 

unreliability of phone 

lines during earthquakes – 

specifically motivated by the 

aftermath of the Kaikoura 

earthquake, which interrupted 

NCEA and scholarship exams. 

“Our app will help mitigate 

any similar situations in the 

future, when it’s crucial for 

information to go to a lot of 

people, quickly,” Ms Swanson 

said. 

Alerts can be sent to all users 

with key information or even 

just to certain groups. 

“When you download it, 

you can subscribe to different 

alert groups, whether it be a

The app was developed in 

conjunction with Snapp Mobile 

and has other features, which 

include parents being able to 

send in absences, contact school 

staff, sync with the school events 

calendar, daily notices and 

newsletters. 

The school is excited to launch 

the app to the community and 

Ms Swanson said it hopes to 

strengthen its relationships 

with families and students even 

further.

complex work like Wisdom teeth surgery, 

Implants and Crowns. 

Dentists Keith Chiang and Zohnia 

McNeill and Dental Hygienist Amy Lee 

offer a complete range of dental and oral 

care services, all in a very calm and relaxed 

environment. “We listen carefully to what 

our patients tell us so we can address each of 

their dental problems and help them achieve 

good oral health,” says Keith. 

A major component of Keith’s work is 

under IV sedation, which is available for 

people that are very nervous about visiting 

the dentist. He has performed more than 

2000 Intravenous sedation procedures and 

the clinic is equipped with the latest advanced 

equipment for sedation monitoring. He has 

a special interest in Oral Surgery, Implants 

and Intra venous sedation. 

For people with damaged or missing teeth, 

Zohnia will discuss with them the options 

of having crowns, permanent implants or 

dentures fitted, all of which have the added 

advantage of helping clients regain their 

functional bite as well as improve their 

smile and overall confidence. She 

has a special interest in Cosmetic 

dentistry, Root Canals and Geriatric 

dentistry. Her calm approach and 

special individual attention to detail 

has helped deal with most common 

dental issues in her patients. 

Hygienist Amy specialises in 

the overall maintenance of healthy 

teeth and gums. She educates her 

clients on how to look after their 

oral health, which if not taken care 

of can have detrimental effects 

on their overall health. The gum 

Dr Keith Chiang, 

Dentist 

disease, Gingivitis is one of the main reasons 

why people lose their teeth, the dentists 

point out, while research also indicates that 

gum disease in pregnant women can mean 

a higher chance of premature birth and low 

birth weight. 

Dry mouth or reduced salivary flow, 

which is caused by certain medications that 

people take can also lead to gum problems 

and tooth decay. By visiting the hygienist 

regularly, gum problems can be prevented, 

and consequently tooth decay as well as 

more serious health issues can be avoided. 

Fendalton Dental Surgery will soon add to 

its suite of advanced dental equipment with 

Dr Zohnia McNeil, 

Dentist 

Amy Lee, 

Dental Hygienist 

a state-ofthe-art 

3D CT scanner, which will be used 

to scan jaws, enabling the dentists to give a 

better diagnosis of clients’ dental problems. 

Keith, Zohnia and Amy invite new 

patients to visit their clinic and experience 

Expert Care and of being one of their valued 

patients, and without having to pay high 

fees. 

Easily accessible, highly visible and 

with plenty of on-site parking, Fendalton 

Dental Surgery, on the corner of 

Glandovey and Idris road, is open Monday 

to Friday 8.30am-5pm. Phone 351 1188
