JIG: St Margaret’s student Annabel Watts made the New Zealand dance company for highland dancing.<br />

Dancer to join national academy<br />
• By Julia Evans<br />
A ST MARGARET’S College<br />
student who has been highland<br />
dancing since she was three<br />
has been selected as part of the<br />
national academy.<br />
Annabel Watts, 16, danced<br />
her way into a spot as one of<br />
the youngest members of the<br />
New Zealand Academy of<br />
Highland and National Dancing.<br />
“There are a few younger<br />
people but there are a lot around<br />
30,” she said.<br />
The auditions took place in<br />
the city at the beginning of<br />
April, which Annabel said was<br />
perfect having them “at home.”<br />
Annabel will join the<br />
company for its <strong>2017</strong> and 2018<br />
season.<br />
“I could’ve done it last year<br />
but I decided school was more<br />
important,” she said.<br />
Beginning with workshops<br />
and conferences around the<br />
country, Annabel will also<br />
perform at the Virginia Tattoo<br />
arts festival.<br />
Now she has to focus on practising,<br />
which she does at least<br />
three times a week.<br />
Her love for highland dance<br />
started more than <strong>13</strong> years ago.<br />
“When I was three I liked the<br />
bagpipes so mum sent me down<br />
the road to join dance classes,”<br />
she said.<br />
And she has never looked<br />
back.<br />
Although she did say it was a<br />
bit unusual to love the bagpipes<br />
any time let alone at such a<br />
young age.<br />
Annabel also recently passed<br />
the advanced highland exam,<br />
which is the highest a dancer<br />
can achieve, and is qualified to<br />
teach.<br />
The national academy will<br />
have its first session after the<br />
New Zealand Highland and National<br />
Dancing Championships<br />
in July.<br />
Red light<br />
runners<br />
risk<br />
safety<br />
of pupils<br />
• By Julia Evans<br />
RED LIGHT runners are putting<br />
primary school pupils at risk.<br />
Shirley Primary School, the city<br />
council and the police are acting<br />
quickly after fears for pupils safety<br />
when crossing<br />
Shirley Rd.<br />
There is a<br />
signalised<br />
pedestrian crossing<br />
outside the<br />
school but red<br />
Sandra<br />
Jamieson<br />
light runners<br />
have caused serious<br />
concern.<br />
Deputy principal<br />
Sandra Jamieson said it’s only<br />
a matter of time before a pupil is<br />
hurt.<br />
“It’s not a matter of if someone<br />
gets injured. It’s when,” she said.<br />
An urgent meeting was held<br />
between school staff, city council<br />
parking enforcement staff and<br />
traffic engineer Penny Gray,<br />
members and staff from the<br />
Papanui-Innes Community<br />
Board, the police and parents last<br />
Wednesday to discuss ways to<br />
improve safety.<br />

<strong>News</strong>.......................................3-5<br />
THE WORLD is a rapidly<br />
changing place, and today we<br />
report on new technology at St<br />
George’s.<br />
It’s called 4k. If you’re not sure<br />
what that actually means watch<br />
Hunger Games or Spectre – it’s the<br />
same technology used in those<br />
Hollywood movies.<br />
The technology will be used in<br />
the hospital’s five new operating<br />
theatres.<br />
What the technology does is<br />
produce a resolution four times<br />
as higher than the traditional full<br />
HD, making it possible to zoom<br />
in on the smallest details and<br />
magnify them.<br />
That will allow surgeons to watch<br />
what they are doing live on a screen<br />
during keyhole surgery, and zoom<br />
in as they work to see right into the<br />
individual blood vessels.<br />

4K technology for St George’s<br />
FROM HOLLYWOOD to the<br />
operating theatre – technology<br />
used in blockbuster movies<br />
is now being used to help<br />
Christchurch surgeons during<br />
operations.<br />
The 4k imaging technology<br />
has been incorporated in the five<br />
new operating theatres built as<br />
part of the redevelopment at St<br />
George’s Hospital.<br />
The technology has been<br />
used to film big screen movies,<br />
including the Hunger Games and<br />
Spectre.<br />
It produces a resolution four<br />
times higher than the traditional<br />
Full HD, making it possible to<br />
zoom in on the smallest details<br />
and magnify them.<br />
That will allow surgeons to<br />
watch what they are doing live<br />
on a screen during keyhole surgery,<br />
and zoom in as they work<br />
to see right to the individual<br />
blood vessels.<br />
Hospital chief executive Greg<br />
Brooks said the technology<br />
would directly benefit patients.<br />
“The redevelopment has<br />
provided us with a key<br />
opportunity to invest in worldleading<br />
innovation to provide<br />
our patients with superior care,”<br />
he said.<br />
ADVANCED: One of the new<br />
operating theatres at St<br />
George’s, where the new 4k<br />
technology will make it easier<br />
for surgeons to do keyhole<br />
surgery. The technology now<br />
in use has been used in big<br />
screen movies, including the<br />
Hunger Games.<br />
In Brief<br />
BARBECUE ARRIVES<br />

City council staff are currently<br />
working through the building<br />
consent required for the shelter,<br />
which is due to arrive in July.<br />
Installation of the barbecue and<br />
shelter will also take place in<br />
July. However, the delivery of the<br />
picnic tables has been delayed.<br />
NEW MEMBERS<br />

a building redevelopment, set<br />
to be completed by the end of<br />
2019. The Board of Trustees is<br />
currently working on concept<br />
plans for the new-look school.<br />

McMaster & Heap<br />
Veterinary practice<br />
Air rifle<br />
injury<br />
in A cAt<br />
Chanel, a beautiful 17 month old Birman<br />
arrived home late one Sunday evening with<br />
a profusely bleeding wound on her back.<br />
Her very concerned owners rushed her to<br />
the After hours clinic where she was placed<br />
on oxygen, given intravenous fluids and pain<br />
relief. The xray taken showed Chanel had<br />
been shot with two air rifle pellets – one was<br />
sitting in her abdomen and one in her left<br />
hind leg. She was also slightly anemic due<br />
to blood loss. Miraculously she was still alive.<br />
Chanel was operated on to remove the hind<br />
leg pellet that night but it was felt too risky<br />
to open her up and remove the abdominal<br />
pellet due to ongoing blood<br />
loss. Thankfully the pellets<br />
missed her vital organs and<br />
spine.<br />
Chanel arrived at McMaster<br />
& Heap Vet Practice on<br />
Monday morning in a fairly<br />
critical condition. She was<br />
closely monitored and her<br />
pain medication with a<br />
fentanyl patch provided<br />
her with continuous relief<br />
– being shot would be<br />
quite sore!<br />
Chanel had regular blood<br />
tests in house to check her<br />
vital organs and to be sure<br />
her anemia wasn’t worsening. Unfortunately<br />
she was becoming more anemic. Kirsty<br />
performed an abdominal ultrasound and<br />
took chest xrays to check for free blood<br />
indicating an active bleed. There was also<br />
some concern about potential damage<br />
to her left kidney from the pellet location.<br />
Thankfully through all this her appetite was<br />
great!<br />
Prior to her<br />
second surgery,<br />
it was decided<br />
that Chanel<br />
would benefit<br />
from a blood<br />
transfusion to<br />
help her red<br />
blood cell levels.<br />
She was blood<br />
typed ( Type A)<br />
and found to be<br />
a match for Kirsty’s cat “Wolfie”. Wolfie was<br />
sedated<br />
and<br />
about 60mls of blood was drawn from<br />
him to give to Chanel over a couple of hours.<br />
The donor cat has their red<br />
cell levels checked and must<br />
be Feline Aids (FIV) negative.<br />
The following day Chanel<br />
appeared brighter and<br />
happier. We decided to<br />
wait a further week before<br />
operating to make sure her<br />
blood levels were stable<br />
and that she was producing<br />
good numbers of red cells<br />
on her own. The repeated<br />
ultrasound and xray showed<br />
that thankfully her left<br />
kidney appeared normal<br />
however the bullet had<br />
slightly moved.<br />
Chanel’s surgery proceeded without a<br />
hitch. The bullet was successfully removed<br />
with very little trauma, from just behind<br />
her left kidney. That afternoon she was<br />
rolling around, playing in her cage, able<br />
to be discharged from our hospital. We<br />
continued with pain relief and one week<br />
later Chanel was near normal. This would<br />
have been a completely different story had<br />
her abdominal organs been penetrated or<br />
her spine shattered. Thanks to her owner’s<br />
rapid response, Chanel’s life was saved and<br />
she’s never looked back. Also a bonus that<br />
her dedicated owners have pet insurance.<br />

Lions club celebrates<br />
• By Julia Evans<br />
THE CHRISTCHURCH<br />
North Lions Club has<br />
marked a significant<br />
milestone.<br />
At the end of May members<br />
from the club gathered<br />
for a luncheon to celebrate<br />
the 50 th anniversary.<br />
It comes in the same year<br />
as centenary celebrations<br />
for the Lions Club internationally.<br />
Early members from<br />
the 60s and 70s joined the<br />
current members for a<br />
celebratory luncheon.<br />
“It was a great day, there<br />
were at least 65 people<br />
there,” club president<br />
Bruce Greenaway said.<br />
It was good seeing former<br />
members of the club<br />
join with us in marking<br />
our 50 years of service to<br />
the community he said.<br />
Over the course of its<br />
history, the branch has<br />
raised more than $250,000.<br />
Many charitable<br />
organisations, as well as<br />
deserving individuals, have<br />
benefited from the quarter<br />
of a million dollars raised<br />
over the 50 years, Mr<br />
Greenaway said.<br />

Police presence stops fires<br />
• By Andrew King<br />
ARSON ATTACKS in<br />
Burnside and Ilam have<br />
stopped after police increased<br />
patrols around the area.<br />
Over a number of weeks,<br />
there have been a series of<br />
deliberately lit fires<br />
in the area, with<br />
wheelie bins, a car<br />
and for sale sign set<br />
alight – some close<br />
enough to scorch<br />
Stephan the exterior of occupied<br />
homes.<br />
McDaniel<br />
Senior Sergeant<br />
Stephan McDaniel<br />
said in response to<br />
the fire, police have<br />
increased patrols in<br />
the area in an effort<br />
James to catch who is<br />
Wallace<br />
lighting the fires.<br />
“At this stage, we have no<br />
clear suspects, but we are looking,”<br />
he said.<br />
He said while there appears<br />
to have been a halt in the attacks,<br />
police will continue to<br />
keep an eye on the area.<br />
“The extra patrols will stay in<br />
place for now,’ he said.<br />
Bins on Greers Rd and Westburn<br />
Tce were set on fire three<br />
weeks ago, prompting police to<br />
dispatch a dog unit to try and<br />
track the offender or offenders.<br />
None have been found.<br />
SINISTER: Most of<br />
the arson attacks<br />
have been wheelie<br />

WALLACE<br />
Burnside resident James<br />
Wallace’s bin was set alight<br />
about a month ago and<br />
scorched the side of his house<br />
while his children were asleep.<br />
He said he had not heard of<br />
any more events around his<br />
area.<br />
“I haven’t seen them, but<br />
I’ve been told there are extra<br />
patrols and a dog unit on<br />
standby,” he said.<br />
• Anyone with<br />
information about the<br />
fires should phone 363<br />

information can also be<br />

Good riddance trees<br />
• By Julia Evans<br />
SOME RESIDENTS are not sad<br />
to see eight blue gum trees around<br />
Bishopdale Village Mall felled.<br />
Burnside’s Bill Willoughby, 79,<br />
said he was pleased the trees had<br />
finally got the chop.<br />
“The city council have done the<br />
right thing, they were getting a bit<br />
scraggy,” he said.<br />
As a regular shopper at the mall,<br />
he said it had really tidied the<br />
place up.<br />
The trees were felled recently<br />
because of their poor health,<br />
structural condition and the<br />
risk they presented to the<br />
public. The Bishopdale Business<br />
Association expressed concern<br />
after a limb fell and wrote off a<br />
parked car last year.<br />
Debris from the trees was<br />
also an additional burden for<br />
businesses in the mall causing<br />
regular maintenance issues.<br />
Appropriate replacement trees<br />
will be planted in consultation<br />
with mall businesses.<br />

recently lost the Mitre 10 at the<br />
mall, which has shifted further<br />
down Harewood Rd.<br />
Trees are important to a community,<br />
which is why we have<br />
protection orders and bylaws<br />
governing some trees.<br />
The Bishopdale blue gums<br />
were on private property so,<br />
in one sense, they can do as<br />
they please, but as trees are an<br />
important aesthetic to any community<br />
is it worth extending<br />
the reach of bylaws to cover not<br />
just historic trees but also the<br />
impact on a community of the<br />
removal of large treescapes?<br />
There is a lot of tree removal<br />
going on in our community.<br />
With all the change in our<br />
city and roadworks strangling<br />
our arterials, the continuity<br />
of arboreal landscapes is<br />
important for psychological<br />
well-being.<br />
Too much change all at once<br />
brings a feeling of dislocation<br />
and being wrenched from stability<br />
and familiarity.<br />
When I moved from a large<br />
property in Papanui several<br />
years ago, the owners cut down<br />
every single tree on what was<br />
one of the last un-subdivided<br />
residential properties in the<br />
area – a remnant quarter acre<br />
section.<br />
Down came the red peaches,<br />
the figs, a tall native, blueberries,<br />
pears and a huge magnolia<br />
that was such a feature of the<br />
local community.<br />
FELLED: A<br />
Treetech<br />
arborist<br />
removed<br />
eight blue<br />
gums<br />
outside the<br />
Bishopdale<br />
Village<br />
Mall.<br />
Up went a tilt slab jammed in<br />
behind an older house.<br />
As the Bishopdale blue gums<br />
toppled, I reflected on Gerard<br />
Manly Hopkins’ famous eulogy<br />
to Binsey Poplars.<br />
“My aspens dear, whose<br />
airy cages quelled, Quelled or<br />
quenched in leaves the leaping<br />
sun, All felled, felled, are all<br />
felled; Of a fresh and following<br />
folded rank . . . O if we but knew<br />
what we do.”<br />
RIP Bishopdale blue gums –<br />
you will be missed.<br />
DANGER: Red light runners at this Shirley Rd pedestrian crossing<br />
are causing concerns for pupils safety.<br />

Pupils safety at risk<br />
•From page 1<br />
Community board chairwoman<br />
Ali Jones said off the back of the<br />
meeting, the group came away<br />
with seven action points.<br />
“The school is not that obvious,<br />
it actually looks like a big office<br />
block . . . if drivers are aware there<br />
are children in the area they will<br />
slow down,” Ms Jones said.<br />
Plans likely to be implemented<br />
include a sign<br />
that warns of children in<br />
the area, increased police<br />
presence, increased city<br />
council enforcement and<br />
pupils carrying flags as<br />
they cross the road.<br />
Mrs Jamieson said they<br />
were also looking at having<br />
a longer waiting time between<br />
the light changing red and the<br />
crossing turning green.<br />
“It will be a combined effort.<br />
The sign, police enforcing, city<br />
council enforcing and also<br />
Ali Jones<br />
someone suggested the children<br />
holding flags as they cross<br />
the road like they already do at<br />
St Albans Primary,” Ms Jones<br />
said.<br />
A full safety audit by the city<br />
council, of traffic from Hills Rd to<br />
The Palms Shopping Centre has<br />
also begun.<br />
Although ideas such as<br />
a flashing 40km/h signs<br />
outside the school were<br />
also proposed but is unlikely<br />
to go ahead.<br />
“They’re expensive and<br />
we have to tick a lot of<br />
NZTA boxes related to<br />
getting that,” Ms Jones<br />
said.<br />
But due to traffic<br />
congestion along Shirley Rd after<br />
school, Mrs Jamieson said it<br />
wasn’t so much an issue of speed<br />
as red light running.<br />
Ms Jones said changes would be<br />
in place within four weeks.<br />

MUSIC: Independent Schools of New Zealand Board<br />
chairwoman Heather McRae (left), with Janet Kingsbury and<br />
Sandra Hastie at the awards ceremony.<br />
Rangi’s ‘Mozart’ gets award<br />
A RANGI Ruru Girls’ School<br />
teacher has received an award for<br />
her outstanding contribution to<br />
music.<br />
Director of music Janet Kingsbury<br />
received the honours award<br />
from Independent Schools of<br />
New Zealand.<br />
She joined Rangi Ruru 14 years<br />
ago. Then, following the September<br />
4, 2010, earthquake, she<br />
volunteered hundreds of hours<br />
to work closely with the campus<br />
design team to ensure the music<br />
department was successfully<br />
rebuilt.<br />
At the Independent Schools<br />
of New Zealand conference,<br />
principal Sandra Hastie said<br />
Mrs Kingsbury is an exceptional<br />
music teacher and leader who<br />
goes above and beyond what is<br />
expected.<br />
“Music is a flagship of Rangi<br />
Ruru and is revered both within<br />
the school and throughout the<br />
music community, both locally<br />
and around the country.”<br />
During a recent performance<br />
review, one of her students said:<br />
“Apart from Mozart, no one<br />
knows more about music than<br />
Mrs K.”<br />
Dr Hastie said the school is<br />
incredibly fortunate to have<br />
Mrs Kingsbury as part of the<br />
team. She was thrilled that her<br />
dedication, talent and hard work<br />
had been recognised with this<br />
award.<br />
Fendalton pupils learn how<br />
the settlers lived<br />
Jayden White, Kellan Faulkner and Connie Zhou<br />
(above) were among the year 1, 2 and 3 pupils<br />
from Fendalton Open Air School who visited<br />
Canterbury Museum last week. They learnt<br />
about the early settlers and how they lived,<br />
worked and played.<br />
Ethan Wong (right) and Paige Layton found out<br />
what it felt like to wear Victorian clothes, which<br />
the children of colonists would have worn.<br />

Tomorrow I will be celebrating<br />
the contribution made by<br />
the women of Waimakariri<br />
electorate to the community<br />
and professional sectors at a<br />
working luncheon with Hon<br />
Amy Adams. I am hosting this<br />
event to celebrate the hard<br />
work of our local women and<br />
to provide an opportunity<br />
for them to hear about the<br />
personal journeys other women<br />
have travelled towards turning<br />
their vision into a life path. The<br />
luncheon is an opportunity to<br />
network, make connections and<br />
be inspired by the experiences<br />
of others.<br />
I enjoyed great feedback from<br />
my Keeping Connected Evening<br />
Meetings held last month to<br />
be more accessible outside<br />
business hours. Transport and<br />
roading were topics raised<br />
frequently. Thank you to all<br />
who attended.<br />
Budget 17 delivered good<br />
news for families who will<br />
welcome adjustments to tax<br />
thresholds, increased Working<br />
for Families and assistance<br />
with housing costs. The<br />
$2 billion package delivers<br />
comprehensive support for<br />
families that is underlined by<br />
our strong economy and wage<br />
growth, and reinforces our<br />
commitment to supporting our<br />
families to get ahead.<br />
The return of cruise ships<br />
to Lyttelton will benefit local<br />
tourism operators. I advocated<br />
for our operators whose<br />
businesses were affected<br />
when the port couldn’t berth<br />
cruise ships after the 2011<br />
earthquake, meeting with the<br />
Port company, Christchurch<br />
City Council and Canterbury<br />
Tourism. The return of these<br />
liners is going to mean some of<br />
our local people can stay<br />
in business.

CBHS prepare for St Andrew’s<br />
SPORTS<br />
• By Andrew King<br />
CHRISTCHURCH Boys’ High<br />
have a hard week ahead of<br />
them with a traditional rival<br />
looking to topple their season<br />
on Saturday.<br />
St Andrew’s will be looking<br />
to take points from top-of-thetable<br />
CBHS when they meet at<br />
the weekend.<br />
CBHS manager Rob Smith<br />
said it will be a tough game.<br />
“This will be a good test for<br />
the boys. They are definitely up<br />
to it; they love playing the game<br />
so the more the better,” he said.<br />
CBHS are currently top of the<br />
table in the UC Championship<br />
after a five try to four win over<br />
St Thomas on Saturday.<br />
Smith said the St Thomas<br />
match was very physical, but he<br />
didn’t expect anything less from<br />
the men from Middlepark Rd<br />
on their club day.<br />
• By Andrew King<br />
RANGI RURU’S first XI<br />
hockey team have won the Pat<br />
Barwick Shield for the first time<br />
in the school’s history with a<br />
great second half performance<br />
against Villa Maria on Friday<br />
night.<br />
The shield was named after<br />
Barwick, a former Black Sticks<br />
women’s captain from 1971-79,<br />
and came into existence in 2014.<br />
It is considered the Ranfurly<br />
Shield of high school women’s<br />
hockey.<br />
The first half of the game<br />
was a feeling out period at<br />
Marist Park. With Rangi slow<br />
out of the blocks, they found<br />
themselves defending a penalty<br />
corner within minutes of the<br />
first whistle.<br />
They turned it around in the<br />
second half, finding the back<br />
of the net four times to win the<br />
shield off their nearby rivals.<br />

games in four days.<br />

“They gave it their all – it was<br />
a great match,” he said.<br />
In the week’s other matches,<br />
Burnside were unable to<br />
get a point against Lincoln<br />
It was presented to captain<br />
Annabelle Wilson by Barwick<br />
herself.<br />
Rangi director of sport Jo<br />
Fogarty said it was a real buzz to<br />
on Saturday losing 15-0.<br />
Meanwhile, Shirley grabbed<br />
their second win of the season<br />
with a 17-8 victory over St<br />
Bede’s.<br />
have the shield on the line and<br />
they look forward to seeing who<br />
will challenge them for it first.<br />
The shield has to be challenged<br />
for by schools, 3 it is not<br />

CHRISTCHURCH BOYS’ High<br />
will take on St Bede’s tomorrow<br />
in the Connetics first XI football<br />
competition.<br />
Seventh placed CBHS put six goals<br />
past Rangiora last week and will be<br />
looking to keep their foot firmly to<br />
the floor when they meet sixth placed<br />
St Bede’s at 4pm. All games will be at<br />
the Christchurch Football Centre.<br />
CBHS coach Mick Braithwaite said<br />
after a slow start to the season, the<br />
team are starting to ramp things up.<br />
“The St Bede’s game will be a<br />
tough ask. The key for us to get three<br />
points is for our defence to continue<br />
their impressive record and we start<br />
scoring more of the chances we are<br />
creating,” he said.<br />
St Bede’s played out a 4-4 draw<br />
against Riccarton last week to help<br />
them retain sixth position on the<br />
table.<br />
Meanwhile, St Andrew’s will look<br />
to continue their winning way when<br />
they take on Riccarton at 7.30pm<br />
tomorrow. They moved into second<br />
position on the table with a solid 2-0<br />
win over Lincoln last week.<br />
Burnside will have their work<br />
cut out for them when they face<br />
off against a rampaging St Thomas<br />
squad at 5.45pm.<br />
Burnside moved into third position<br />
on the table with a hard fought 2-2<br />
draw against Shirley last week.<br />
Burnside will have a crack at the<br />
Connetics Shield tomorrow night,<br />
but will face staunch opposition<br />
from St Thomas who defended it for<br />
a second time with a 5-1 win over<br />
Papanui in round 6.<br />
Burnside coach David Williams<br />
said the shield challenge has come as<br />
a surprise as they have never played<br />
for it.<br />
Papanui will have a crack against<br />
third-placed Lincoln tomorrow at<br />
4pm.<br />
•Last week we said Papanui was<br />
defeated 3-0 by St Thomas in last<br />
year’s fixture. It was Papanui who<br />
beat St Thomas 3-0.<br />

KIDSTUFF<br />
Kids love CASPA!<br />
School that never was<br />
Chairman of the Papanui Heritage Group Murray Williams<br />
writes about the Government’s doomed plan to build<br />
‘Redwood High School’<br />
AS EARLY as 1960 it was accepted by<br />
both the Papanui High School Board<br />
of Governors and the Department of<br />
Education that the rapid increase in the<br />
population of the city’s north-west would<br />
require the construction of another<br />
secondary school in the area.<br />
The site chosen was a 7.7ha block at<br />
the western end of Tuckers Rd, approximately<br />
2km from Papanui High School.<br />
Most of the land had been “taken by<br />
proclamation,” meaning it was acquired<br />
under the Public Works Act, which gave<br />
the Government the right of compulsory<br />
purchase if the land was required for<br />
reasons of public interest.<br />
The completion of Kaiapoi High School<br />
in 1972 might have been expected to<br />
reduce some pressure on the Papanui roll,<br />
but the board remained adamant that the<br />
Tuckers Rd site should be developed as<br />
soon as possible.<br />
A pressure point at Papanui High<br />
School was the lack of quality accommodation.<br />
The departmental reaction had<br />
been to increase the supply of temporary<br />
buildings, thus creating a prefab alley of<br />
dingy classrooms.<br />
The board considered the possibility<br />
of creating a side school at the new site,<br />
one that should be administered from<br />
Papanui High School. The possibility of<br />
creating two single sex schools was also<br />

PLANS: The site<br />
plan developed<br />
by the Ministry<br />
of Works for the<br />
proposed new<br />
secondary school<br />
in the 1970s. The<br />
school would have<br />
been accessed<br />
from Tuckers Rd<br />
and by a right of<br />
way from Sturrocks<br />
Rd. <br />
advanced, although neither option was<br />
found to be favourable.<br />
The local newspaper took up the cause<br />
of an extra school and demanded “urgent<br />
action now.”<br />
In May 1976, the Department of Education<br />
decided to build a new co-educational<br />
high school on Tuckers Rd (tentatively<br />
named Redwood High School).<br />
It was scheduled to open in 1980, initially<br />
with a form 3 intake of 200.<br />
The design of the school would be the<br />
same as the S68 model used at Kaiapoi.<br />
However, by 1977, the issue suddenly appeared<br />
less urgent.<br />
It was noted that the Papanui roll had<br />
stabilised and the Burnside High School<br />
roll was falling. In April 1979, the education<br />
minister decided that the new school<br />
would not be built.<br />
In retrospect, it can be seen that the<br />
department’s planners had been blindsided<br />
by the decrease in the national birth<br />
rate, which had fallen by 18 per cent over<br />
the period from 1964 to 1974. The boom<br />
years of the demand for new schools had<br />
come to a halt.<br />
Most of the land that had been earmarked<br />
for the “school that never was”<br />
is now owned by the Exclusive Brethren<br />
church.<br />

Creating a Better<br />
Denture Experience<br />
When was the last time you<br />
had your dentures checked?<br />
Call us today for your FREE<br />
check today.<br />
At Better Denture, the denture clinic<br />
situated in Brynley Street, Hornby, the aim<br />
is to take the hassle out of getting new teeth,<br />
says experienced dental technician and<br />
owner Chris Castle.<br />
“We focus on making it easier for people<br />
coming here to have dentures made or<br />
maintained with our relaxed environment<br />
and friendly approach.”<br />
Chris understands that people can be a bit<br />
nervous about coming into a dental clinic,<br />
but he makes sure everyone feels welcome<br />
and comfortable at Better Denture by<br />
breaking down those barriers and putting<br />
them at ease.<br />
The process of having new dentures made<br />
and fitted usually takes four appointments,<br />
and Chris explains the process step by step<br />
so patients understand what’s being done,<br />
further complete after care is provided at no<br />
additional cost.<br />
“Every set of dentures is made to onsite<br />
by hand, using higher grade materials as<br />
standard, allowing us the ability to customise<br />
every aspect of the process. We also aim to<br />
cater toward the upkeep of existing dentures,<br />
with same day repairs and relines on offer,<br />
as well as being available on Saturdays,<br />
allowing us to work around even the busiest<br />
schedules,” he says.<br />
“Our aim at Better Denture is to create<br />
the best possible denture experience for<br />
you, the customer, whether it be through<br />
the products we custom create, the service<br />
we provide or the manner in which strive to<br />
achieve both of those goals.”<br />
Anyone needing new dentures is invited<br />
to contact Better Denture, phone 349 5050,<br />
for a free consultation. The clinic is spacious<br />
and welcoming, and patients are invited to<br />
bring someone with them for support at any<br />
appointment if they wish.<br />
Located at 6 Brynley Street Hornby,<br />
Better Denture is open Monday to Friday,<br />
9am-5pm and Saturday, 10am-12pm.<br />

this carefully.<br />
Stir until syrup is clear. Cool.<br />

No job too small at<br />
this repair business<br />
Scratch on the bumper? Dent in the door?<br />
Damage like this can happen so easily – in<br />
supermarket car parks, for example. And<br />
the place to get minor damage quickly and<br />
professionally repaired is SMART Repairs<br />
in Lichfield Street.<br />
SMART (Small to Medium Automotive<br />

the trade, so customers can be confident<br />
they will get a first-class job.<br />

their work is non-insurance, they also<br />
provide insurance quotes and carry out<br />
those repairs quickly and efficiently.<br />
To keep their customers on the road while<br />
their vehicle is in the workshop, SMART<br />
Repairs recently acquired a courtesy car,<br />
and this has already proven to be a great<br />
help for people, Maxine says. They also offer<br />
a pick-up and delivery service if required.<br />
As a small, friendly operation, SMART<br />
Repairs specialises in small to medium<br />
repair work, with no job too small, Maxine<br />
says. Their aim is to provide personalised<br />
service, and make it easy for customers<br />
unsure what to do if their vehicle is<br />
damaged.<br />
“We take pride in our work and ensure<br />

trees and the with glorious sound of bird<br />
song, it’s easy to see the possibilities for<br />
really transforming this section into your<br />
special home. Only a short walk or drive<br />
