Burnside High’s leaky building repairs<br />
• By Gabrielle Stuart<br />
DESIGN FLAWS are believed<br />
to be responsible for leaks in the<br />
six-year-old $4 million Burnside<br />
High School art and technology<br />
block.<br />
Similar leaks have also<br />
been found in the school<br />
administration buildings.<br />
They will be repaired as part<br />
of a $24 million repair and<br />
redevelopment work plan at the<br />
school, which is set to start this<br />
year.<br />
The cost of fixing the leaks is<br />
not yet known, but is expected<br />
to be assessed in the next few<br />
weeks.<br />
The building has been leaking<br />
for more than two years, but<br />
work to fix it was put on hold<br />
while the Ministry of Education<br />
assessed other earthquake<br />
repairs and redevelopment work<br />
at the school.<br />
Burnside principal Phil<br />
Holstein said the repair was<br />
initially not expected to be done<br />
until 2022.<br />
It was brought forward to this<br />
year, as the school was worried<br />
damage would be done to the<br />
building if the leaks were not<br />
repaired, he said.<br />
He said the architectural<br />
design of the buildings was<br />
believed to be responsible for the<br />
leaks.<br />
“Across the country, a lot of<br />
school designs with this style<br />
of architecture, particularly flat<br />
roof buildings, a lot of them have<br />
weather tightness issues,” he<br />
said.<br />
Alongside the repair work,<br />
he said the school was set to be<br />
refurbished and modernised.<br />
“We want to provide the best<br />
learning environment we can<br />
for our students here, and that’s<br />
ultimately what we’re after,” he<br />
said.<br />
Bringing the work forward<br />
meant the school could start the<br />
master-planning process with<br />
the Ministry of Education soon,<br />
he said.<br />

Mother Nature<br />
rains down on<br />
school netball<br />
tournament<br />
While most of the city was sheltering away from<br />
the terrible weather conditions last week, hardy<br />
students were out in the elements competing<br />
in the South Island secondary schools junior<br />
netball tournament. Rangi Ruru Girls’ School<br />
and St Margaret’s College year 10 sides battled<br />
it out at the Christchurch Netball Centre in<br />
Hagley Park until it got too bad and the game<br />
had to be called off.<br />
The tournament was celebrating its 20th<br />
anniversary, but Mother Nature had other ideas.<br />
The competition, held from <strong>July</strong> 10-12, saw year<br />
9 and 10 teams from around the South Island<br />
compete. The grand finals were able to be<br />
played after St Margaret’s came to the rescue<br />
and offered their gym for the tournament.<br />

WHAT RAIN?: Rangi Ruru and St<br />
Margaret’s year 10 netball sides<br />

THERE’S ONE big leaky problem<br />
on page 1 today – Burnside High<br />
School.<br />
We reveal design flaws are<br />
believed to be responsible for leaks<br />
in the six-year-old $4 million art<br />
and technology block.<br />
Similar leaks have also been<br />
found in the school administration<br />
buildings.<br />
The cost of fixing the leaks will<br />

The building has been leaking<br />
for more than two years, but work<br />
to fix it was put on hold while<br />
earthquake repairs were assessed.<br />
The flat roof design appears to<br />
be the cause of the damage.<br />
No surprises there.<br />

No library bus for Merivale<br />
• By Julia Evans<br />
THE MERIVALE Precinct<br />
Society is worried about the<br />
lack of facilities for its ageing<br />
population.<br />
So the residents’ group came<br />
up with a solution – to put the<br />
mobile library bus stop there<br />
again.<br />
Deputy chairwoman<br />
Denise Leighs approached the<br />
Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood<br />
Community Board, which<br />
raised the issue with the city<br />
council.<br />
However, the<br />
city council said<br />
Merivale does not<br />
meet the criteria<br />
to get the mobile<br />
library bus back<br />
Carolyn<br />
Robertson<br />
anytime soon.<br />
“The mobile<br />
library idea was<br />
discussed at (the<br />
Merivale Precinct Society’s)<br />
May meeting as an ongoing<br />
conversation about the lack<br />
of facilities for the ageing<br />
population,” Mrs Leighs said.<br />
She said the library bus used<br />
to stop in Merivale before the<br />
earthquakes outside the JDV<br />
cafe entrance on Aikmans Rd.<br />
But city council libraries and<br />
information manager Caroline<br />
Robertson said the city council<br />
would not be considering a stop<br />
in Merivale.<br />
“Previously the mobile library<br />
did stop at Merivale but, at<br />
the time, the area did not have<br />
access to the same number of<br />
library facilities it does now,” Ms<br />
Robertson said.<br />
In assessing the need for a<br />
mobile stop, city council staff<br />
have to consider a number of<br />
factors.<br />
“The mobile library operates<br />
a service that targets specific<br />
sectors of the community. This<br />
includes travelling to those<br />
parts of the city that do not have<br />
adequate library facilities and<br />
also sectors of the community<br />
that are socially isolated or<br />
vulnerable,” Ms Robertson said.<br />
She said the city council is<br />
also mindful of the distance to<br />
the nearest library. Merivale<br />
Mall is 2.9km from the Papanui<br />
Library, 2.4km from the<br />
Peterborough Library and 3km<br />
from the Fendalton Library.<br />
“In light of these aspects<br />
and due to the need to service<br />
other areas of the community<br />
Elmwood<br />
BUS: The<br />
mobile<br />
library used<br />
to stop on<br />
Aikmans Rd<br />
but the city<br />
council won’t<br />
consider<br />
bringing it<br />
back.<br />
. . . at this time, we will not<br />
be considering offering a stop<br />
in the Merivale area,” Ms<br />
Robertson said.<br />
Mrs Leighs will take the<br />
response back to the Merivale<br />
Precinct Society. The mobile<br />
library route has 23 stops,<br />
including various retirement<br />
villages around the city.<br />

there enough facilities for<br />

In Brief<br />
CLUB’S PARKING TROUBLE<br />
Parking is proving difficult<br />
at Tulett Park in Casebrook<br />
for members of the Nomads<br />
football club. The club requested<br />
additional parking from the<br />
city council. City council staff<br />
have advised that they will look<br />
into marking individual parks<br />
on Claridges Rd once other<br />
construction work in the area has<br />
been finished.<br />
TRUCK HAZARD SOLVED<br />
Delivery trucks which park at the<br />
intersection of Trafford St and<br />
Harewood Rd while servicing the<br />
Harewood Dairy and Superette<br />
could be a major factor in the<br />
visibility problem for motorists<br />
on the corner. The Fendalton-<br />
Waimairi-Harewood Community<br />
Board was approached by a<br />
resident who expressed concern<br />
for the safety of both the drivers<br />
and pedestrians. The trucks have<br />
now been asked to park further<br />
back from the corner.<br />
EDGEWARE STORY BOARDS<br />
The boards outside Edgeware<br />
Rd’s Supervalue supermarket,<br />
which tell the history of<br />
Edgeware, have been put into<br />
storage while the supermarket<br />
is expanded. Once the work is<br />
completed, the boards will be<br />
returned to the street-front.<br />

Sian Nihoniho<br />
Ms Nihoniho has been a key<br />
volunteer with the Papanui<br />
Baptist Freedom Trust’s friendship<br />
Friday community lunch<br />
for more than 13 years. She has<br />
played a variety of roles in that<br />
time, in particular as part of<br />
the leadership team working<br />
with the community.<br />
Over the years the lunch<br />
has attracted a large number<br />
of community members<br />
who have disabilities, mental<br />
illnesses, chronic illnesses, are<br />
elderly, unemployed or<br />
are from minority ethnic<br />
groups.<br />
Yvonne Palmer<br />
Ms Palmer has been serving<br />
the public as a Justice of the<br />
Peace for more than 15 years.<br />
She has also been an active<br />
panellist and facilitator for the<br />
Community Justice Panel since<br />
its inception five years ago.<br />
As a former Shirley-Papanui<br />
Community Board chairwoman<br />
and member, she has<br />
always been very active beyond<br />
the call of duty and still has an<br />
extensive network of contacts.<br />
Ms Palmer is also a marriage<br />
and funeral celebrant, often<br />
performing these roles voluntarily.<br />
CULTURE: The Northcote kapa haka group performed at<br />
the event.<br />
Peter Simpson<br />
Mr Simpson has been the<br />
principal at Belfast School for<br />
23 years and has served the<br />
Belfast Community Network<br />
since 2006. During that time<br />
he has volunteered his own<br />
time to support community<br />
events and meetings.<br />
The children, staff, local<br />
families and the community<br />
have all benefitted from the<br />
pivotal role Mr Simpson has<br />
undertaken in the Belfast community.<br />
Tony Simpson<br />
Mr Simpson has been<br />
involved with the city council<br />
graffiti programme since it was<br />
piloted.<br />
The overwhelming support<br />
and commitment from<br />
volunteers like Mr Simpson<br />
have contributed to the success<br />
of this programme and the<br />
reduction of graffiti.<br />
Knit and Knatter<br />
The group started in 2007<br />
with five members. The group<br />
now has more than 15 members<br />
who meet once a fortnight<br />
for two hours at the Shirley<br />
Community Trust premises.<br />
But each of them knit for approximately<br />
two or three hours<br />
each day.<br />
The group has knitted and<br />
crocheted a large variety of<br />
items such as blankets, beanies<br />
and baby items. Last year the<br />
group produced 2000 knitted<br />
items and so far this year it has<br />
knitted 636.<br />
The knitting is passed onto<br />
a variety of organisations,<br />
hospitals, pre-school facilities<br />
and schools.<br />
The knitters benefit by being<br />
able to join together and form<br />
friendships over an activity<br />
they enjoy while producing a<br />
large range of useful items for<br />
donation to organisation and<br />
agencies.<br />
Rotary Club of Belfast<br />
Kaiapoi<br />

in 1969 and has been<br />
providing services to the community<br />
ever since.<br />
It works tirelessly to fundraise<br />

in Belfast, Redwood and<br />
Kaiapoi. This service group has<br />
a major fundraiser each year<br />
where members grow and sell<br />
over $50,000 of potatoes. The<br />
funds raised are donated back<br />
to the local community.<br />
Rotary members have ensured<br />
all Belfast junior touch<br />
module teams have sponsored<br />
shirts as well as outfitting the<br />
Belfast Community Network<br />
with new office furniture,<br />
providing youth leadership<br />
programmes and support to<br />

requirements from computers<br />
to funds for children who are<br />

GOOD LUCK: Redwood man Patrick Bennett showed Grant<br />
Dalton how happy he is to have the cup back in New Zealand.<br />
Sealed with a kiss<br />
• By Bridget Rutherford<br />
PATRICK BENNETT had<br />
waited a long time to see the<br />
America’s Cup.<br />
And during Emirates Team<br />
New Zealand’s victory parade on<br />
Wednesday, the Redwood man<br />
got to give it a kiss.<br />
Mr Bennett said he did not<br />
know what possessed him to do<br />
it. “It’s pretty unreal to see it,” he<br />
said.<br />
It was great to see the team<br />
overcome its loss at the hands of<br />
Oracle during the campaign in<br />
San Francisco in 2013, he said.<br />
Mr Bennett was one of about<br />
6000 who braved the freezing<br />
conditions to celebrate the<br />
team’s 7-1 victory in Bermuda.<br />
In spite of the conditions, Mr<br />
Bennett said the cup was actually<br />
“quite warm”.<br />
“I’ve been waiting a long time<br />
to see that.”<br />
Pipe band leads parade, gets<br />
up close with America’s Cup<br />
• By Julia Evans<br />
SNOW FLURRIES, sleet, rain<br />
and near freezing temperatures<br />
were not enough to stop the St<br />
Andrew’s College pipe band<br />
leading the America’s Cup<br />
parade.<br />
“Everybody playing warmed<br />
to the idea, if you know what<br />
I mean,” pipe leader Graeme<br />
Bryce said.<br />
Mr Bryce said last week’s<br />
parade was a “golden<br />
opportunity” for the band.<br />
“Parades like that don’t<br />
happen very often . . . everyone<br />
was pretty excited,” he said.<br />
It was a last minute phone<br />
call from tourism organisation<br />
ChristchurchNZ that brought<br />
the band together.<br />
“It was a little difficult because<br />
of the school holidays but a lot<br />
of kids replied quickly and<br />
were all keen to play,” Mr Bryce<br />
said.<br />
There were 12 pipers and 10<br />
drummers making up the band,<br />
with ages ranging from 11 to 17.<br />
Mr Bryce said the band didn’t<br />
miss the opportunity to touch<br />
the America’s Cup and get their<br />
photo taken with it just before<br />
the crew left.<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />
FLAME FILES<br />
Seal pup gets short shrift<br />
• By Mark Thomas – specialist<br />
fire investigator<br />
IT WAS going to be the mother<br />
of all storms apparently.<br />
It turns out it wasn’t.<br />
At least not in the city.<br />
But it was bitterly cold, some<br />
snow fell and on the hills it<br />
managed to settle.<br />
I’m sure the weather did have<br />
some effect, however, with 16<br />
motor accidents attended by our<br />
crews in the week.<br />
We did have the odd other<br />
call that could have been attributed<br />
to the weather.<br />
Although the incident attended<br />
by Harewood and Addington<br />
crews in Hornby last Friday had<br />
its origin in ignorance rather<br />
than iciness.<br />
A fire was lit in the fireplace<br />
by a shivering occupant.<br />
It’s just that this was a house<br />
damaged back in the earthquakes<br />
and the chimney had<br />
been removed. The result was<br />
quite fortunate really, with<br />
smoke filling the ceiling and<br />
then the house itself. Fortunate<br />
because that smoke was all that<br />
happened.<br />
Could easily have resulted in<br />
the loss of the home. We go to<br />
any number of false alarms at<br />
buildings with smoke detectors.<br />
Some are from accidental<br />
causes, where smoke from<br />
PLAYFUL:<br />
This seal pup<br />
was escorted<br />
from<br />
Fitzgerald<br />
Ave by the<br />
city’s red<br />
watch fire<br />
crew.<br />
cooking or dust from workmen<br />
sanding, set the alarms off.<br />
Last Thursday’s call to the<br />
Riccarton Clinic was a bit different.<br />
A plaster cast was being<br />
cut off a patient.<br />
Seems the plaster dust was<br />
enough to activate the alarm.<br />
Result was a full evacuation.<br />
Finally, the retrieval of a seal<br />
pup from Fitzgerald Ave and its<br />
return to the Avon was accomplished<br />
by the city’s red watch<br />
fire crew on Wednesday.<br />
Hope Mum was about.<br />
Leaky building repairs for Burnside High<br />
•From page 1<br />
Ministry of Education head<br />
of the education infrastructure<br />
service Kim Shannon said the<br />
work would start in the next few<br />
weeks.<br />
Once the design work was<br />
done on the buildings, the cost<br />
of fixing the leaking issues could<br />
be assessed, she said.<br />
“A designer will be appointed<br />
in the next few weeks to<br />
determine specifically what<br />
is required to fix the weathertightness<br />
issues,” she said.<br />
She said the leaks were the<br />
result of “historic design and<br />
construction work”, but who<br />
was liable was complicated.<br />
“Proving liability for weathertightness<br />
issues is not straight<br />
forward in Christchurch due to<br />
the wide ranging impacts of the<br />
earthquakes,” she said.<br />
Readers write about<br />
whether free entry is<br />
enough to get them cycling<br />
into the Jellie Park Sport<br />
and Recreation Centre<br />
Connie Kruse Christensen<br />
– Free entry would make me cycle<br />
to the swimming pools. But it<br />
needs more promoting to schools,<br />
workplaces and the greater community<br />
for people to know it<br />
exists.<br />
Nic Davies – Warm weather.<br />
Sadly, I’m not much of a biker,<br />
but have to say, love these new<br />
cycleways that are being made.<br />
If I was more into biking, I’d feel<br />
damn safer using them with all<br />
the crazy car drivers about.<br />
Lynn Mortlock – The first<br />
trial was in the middle of summer<br />
and 117 visits were recorded,<br />
which according to the organiser<br />
was a success. Welcome to<br />
Christchurch, which caters for the<br />
minority and the majority suffer.<br />
Warren Kemp – For a start,<br />
you need a push-bike. Oh, and<br />
warmer weather. Then I will need<br />
motivation (extremely low when<br />
it comes to push-bikes) and better<br />
roads. What about self-propelled<br />
push-bikes? And we could put a<br />
cage around them for safety.<br />
Wait a minute that sounds like<br />
a car. Yes – a car would work for<br />
me.<br />
Jason Gemmill – Give it up!<br />
Stop trying to force people out of<br />
cars and on to bikes. If we wanted<br />
to, we would. But clearly the vast<br />
majority of us are not interested<br />
in cycling.<br />
Anna Barclay – Nothing.<br />
Don’t waste the money, there’s<br />
still people using chemical toilets<br />
in New Brighton.<br />
Anna Henderson – Probably<br />
will anyway but cycle lanes<br />
the whole way would help. Feels<br />
much safer.<br />
Dennis Rogers – It makes<br />
sense to bike as you’re saving at<br />
least $1000-plus a year leaving<br />
your car at home. It’s extra money<br />
in your pocket.<br />
Danielle Aitken – Advertise<br />
it more. I saw nothing about the<br />
last trial at all.<br />
Jillian Nuth – I’d love to but<br />
the traffic is terrifying.<br />

St Andrew’s win junior tournament<br />
• By Andrew King<br />
RAIN, HAIL and sleet could<br />
not stop the St Andrew’s<br />
College year 9 netball team<br />
from winning their grade in<br />
the South Island secondary<br />
schools junior netball<br />
tournament on Wednesday.<br />
St Andrew’s beat Dunedin’s<br />
St Hilda’s Collegiate 33-12 in<br />
the final.<br />
However, due to the appalling<br />
weather conditions, the<br />
final was transferred from the<br />
STAUNCH FANS: Rangi Ruru fans braved<br />
the weather to watch their team.<br />
Christchurch Netball Centre<br />
to the St Margaret’s College<br />
gym.<br />
Unfortunately, they were<br />
unable to play most of the<br />
other final games due to snow<br />
falling.<br />
St Andrew’s breezed past<br />
Kaiapoi High in the opening<br />
round 54-12 before beating<br />
St Kevin’s College 39-13 and<br />
Marlborough Girls’ High<br />
31-<strong>18</strong>.<br />
They backed those results up<br />
by beating Rolleston College<br />
39-13, St Margaret’s 40-19 and<br />
Mt Aspiring College 34-14.<br />
The semi-final against Villa<br />
Maria College was tighter<br />
with St Andrew’s getting past<br />
them 30-24.<br />
Tournament director Penny<br />
Martin said it was a great<br />
event which was, unfortunately,<br />
let down by the weather.<br />
“After two full days of playing<br />
their little hearts out, it<br />
was a shame to cancel those<br />
last games,” she said.<br />
Rangi Ruru Girls’ High<br />
AIRBORNE: Molly Spark looked to get a<br />
pass away in St Andrew’s win over St Hilda<br />
in the final.<br />
came third equal with Villa<br />
Maria in the year 9 grade and<br />
St Margaret’s were fifth equal.<br />
Christchurch Girls’ High<br />
came third equal with Southland<br />
Girls’ High in the year 10<br />
grade, while St Andrew’s was<br />
fifth equal with St Hilda’s.<br />
The tournament, now in its<br />
20th year, attracted 88 year 9<br />
and 10 teams to compete for<br />
glory over the three-day event,<br />
which is held every year at<br />
the Christchurch Netball<br />
Centre.<br />
New treatment for fungal nails<br />
Feet First, the long-established<br />
podiatry clinic in Upper Riccarton, now<br />
has a much more efficient and effective<br />
means of dealing with the problem of<br />
fungal nails, thanks to a new machine<br />
they recently obtained from Britain,<br />
where it was designed and trialled.<br />
Clearanail is a procedure where the<br />
Podiatrists use a machine to make<br />
tiny holes in the nail without affecting<br />
the nail bed – a completely pain-free<br />
procedure that then allows the topical<br />
application of antifungal<br />
solution to directly reach the<br />
problem area.<br />
Fungal nails may cause<br />
the toenail to thicken, which<br />
consequently can make shoes<br />
feel uncomfortable. Anyone<br />
who believes they have a fungal<br />
infection of the nails is invited<br />
to make an appointment for a<br />
consultation with Feet First so one of the<br />
qualified Podiatrists can assess if that is<br />
the case, and if so, will recommend the<br />
Clearanail procedure. This involves the<br />
initial treatment, and three follow-up<br />
appointments at monthly intervals to<br />
check progress.<br />
“Fungal nail infections won’t disappear<br />
immediately,” clinic director Charlotte<br />
Russell says, “so people need to commit<br />
to the process, which can take up to four<br />
months as the nail grows.”<br />
effective treatment, Feet First has<br />
another unique feature – the Shoe<br />

EAGER: More than 50 people and their bicycles braved the cold to celebrate the<br />
opening of the Papanui Parallel. <br />
Community celebrates cycleway<br />
• By Julia Evans<br />
THE ST Albans<br />
community thinks<br />
the cycleway in its<br />
neighbourhood is<br />
something to celebrate.<br />
So more than 50 residents<br />
took their children,<br />
dogs and bicycles along<br />
to the Papanui Parallel to<br />
mark its opening.<br />
Organiser Lynne O’Keefe<br />
said they’d tried to arrange<br />
the event at the same time<br />
as the official opening by<br />
Mayor Lianne Dalziel and<br />
Minister of Transport<br />
Simon Bridges.<br />
But she said it was a<br />
“moving target” due to the<br />
minister’s busy schedule so<br />
they locked in their own<br />
date.<br />
Residents met at the Rutland<br />
Reserve for a barbecue<br />
lunch provided by Fulton<br />
Hogan before exploring the<br />
new cycleway.<br />
Mrs O’Keefe said it was<br />
great to see people out using<br />
the new route.<br />
“It just encouraged<br />
people out onto it and it felt<br />
like we moved away from<br />
the controversy surrounding<br />
the cycleways,” she said.<br />
The event was supported<br />
by local businesses, who<br />
Mrs O’Keefe said were the<br />
most negatively impacted<br />
by the cycleways.<br />
“It was great to see them<br />
getting behind it.”<br />

GREAT food<br />
BROUGHT TO YOU BY...<br />
Your fresh food people<br />
CHICKEN BREAST WITH<br />
MUSHROOM STUFFING<br />
AND MARSALA GLAZE<br />
Ingredients<br />
1 Garlic clove<br />
1 Shallot, or small onion, diced<br />
15g Butter<br />
50g White Button mushrooms<br />
2 slices Bread, stale and diced<br />
1 Tbsp Parsley, finely chopped<br />
1 Lemon, zest<br />
2 Chicken breasts<br />
1 Tbsp Oil<br />
3 Tbsp Marsala, or sherry<br />
2 Tbsp Cream<br />
Directions<br />
Stuffing<br />
In a small frying pan, fry the<br />
garlic and shallot in the butter<br />
until translucent. Add the mushrooms<br />
and fry for 2-3min until<br />
cooked. Add the breadcrumbs,<br />
cooking until the butter has<br />
been absorbed.<br />
Take off the heat, add the parsley<br />
and lemon zest and season<br />
with salt and freshly ground<br />
black pepper.<br />
To cook the chicken<br />
Heat the oven to <strong>18</strong>0 deg C.<br />
Stuff the chicken breast by lifting<br />
the tenderloin up (if there is no<br />
tenderloin, ignore this). Press<br />
half of the stuffing on to the<br />
breast meat. Cover the stuffing<br />
with the tenderloin. Wrap the<br />
breast with kitchen string to secure<br />
the stuffing in place and tie.<br />
Repeat with second breast.<br />
Heat a frying pan and add oil.<br />
Add the breasts skin side down<br />
and season with salt. When<br />
browned on one side, turn and<br />
season again. After 3min, place<br />
the pan in the hot oven for a further<br />
10-12min or until cooked.<br />
Remove from the oven and<br />
cover with foil to rest for 5min.<br />
To serve, place the chicken on a<br />
chopping board and remove the<br />
string.<br />
Slice in half and place on a<br />
warmed plate. Cover with foil<br />
while you make the sauce.<br />
Return the pan of chicken<br />
juices to the hob. Add the<br />
marsala or sherry and let it<br />
reduce for 2-3min (this is called<br />
de-glazing). Add the cream and<br />
taste for seasoning. Pour the<br />
sauce over the chicken. You may<br />
need to pour over through a<br />
sieve to remove any burnt pan<br />
leftovers. Season with freshly<br />
ground black pepper. Serve with<br />
potatoes and greens.<br />

Neighbour<br />
Hello<br />
Christchurch is entering a new and<br />
exciting phase and the recent inauguration of<br />
ChristchurchNZ bringing together four key<br />
sectors; Tourism, International Education,<br />
Business Innovation and the new Convention<br />
Bureau, is a demonstration of the city’s<br />
commitment to make Christchurch a great<br />
destination to visit and to study and work<br />
in! International students are on the rise, and<br />
Alpha Homestays Limited (AHSL) is building<br />
on the proud history of Student Links to<br />
facilitate good matching of international<br />
students with local New Zealand families<br />
as they pursue their various study options.<br />
AHSL provides services to Alpha Educational<br />
Institute (AEI), in Sheffield Crescent (where<br />
Margaret Bray and Jude Cochrane look after<br />
our office); the National Trade Academy<br />
(NTA), a land-based training centre near<br />
Orana Park; the International Aviation<br />
Academy of New Zealand (IAANZ), in<br />
Pound Road, which trains pilots, and the Air<br />
New Zealand Aviation Institute (AirNZAI),<br />
in Orchard Road, who train the Aircraft<br />
Engineers! So, we do have our work cutout<br />
these days and are definitely looking<br />
to broaden our Homestay base – hence the<br />
accompanying advertisement!<br />
Currently the age-range that AHSL caters<br />
for is from 12-years old to mature adults.<br />
The younger students (mostly teenagers) are<br />
generally in AEI’s High School Preparation<br />
Programme and the adult students are<br />
preparing for further tertiary study or<br />
are already enrolled in one of the tertiary<br />
institutions mentioned.<br />
The recent nationality mix has included<br />
Chinese and Taiwanese, Japanese, South<br />
Korean, Filipino, Vietnamese, Indonesian,<br />
Thai, Indian, and several of our South<br />
American countries!<br />
AHSL is very attentive to the need to<br />
support both the homestay families and<br />
the international students, and so pastoral<br />
care oversight is a high priority. We are very<br />
mindful of the significant ‘Adjustment Curve’<br />
that all the students go through, no matter<br />
what their age! After all, they are changing<br />
country and culture and language of learning!<br />
This means different food, climate, lifestyles,<br />
customs, and of course the challenge of<br />
learning and communicating in English!<br />
We try to imagine ourselves in the reverse<br />
scenario and we can totally empathise! We<br />
hope many of you will consider joining the<br />
AHSL Team!<br />

FOCUS ON HEALTH<br />
Time Honoured<br />
Remedy<br />
Are you<br />
Magnesium<br />
According to a country Doctor “D.C. Jarvis”<br />
from Vermont in the USA cider vinegar and<br />
honey (CV & H) can be an important part of<br />
a long healthy life. Dr. Jarvis noted Vermonters<br />
who regularly consumed cider vinegar and<br />
honey had excellent health with many putting<br />
in a vigorous day’s work on the farm even<br />
when well into their eighties.<br />
Dr. Jarvis found the effects of cider vinegar<br />
and honey on arthritis can be remarkable<br />
with many patients reporting almost total<br />
relief after taking a course of the cider vinegar<br />
and honey. Dr. Jarvis surmised that the acid<br />
and potassium in cider vinegar counteracted<br />
calcium deposits and helped the body control<br />
calcium use.<br />
As well as a general tonic Dr. Jarvis found<br />
regular administration of cider vinegar and<br />
honey at the onset of complaints such<br />
as the common cold, sinusitis,<br />
asthmatic attacks, hay fever,<br />
and childhood diseases<br />
such as chicken pox<br />
and measles, was<br />
accompanied by<br />
an improvement<br />
in the condition<br />
with symptoms<br />
either disappearing,<br />
or the conditions were<br />
extremely mild and soon<br />
over.<br />
Apple cider vinegar contains all the goodness<br />
of the apple in a form that is readily accepted<br />
by the body. Scientists have found over 90<br />
different substances in ACV, among them 20<br />
important trace elements, minerals, essential<br />
enzymes, a number of different acids including<br />
malic acid, amino acids and roughage in the<br />
form of potash and pectin. A scientific study<br />
at the Shizuka University in Japan has proven<br />
ACV to have potent antioxidant benefits (It can<br />
destroy free radicals, which are a major factor<br />
in ageing.) and also the ACV can break down<br />
cholesterol formations in the blood vessels.<br />
ACV and H is a powerful tonic that also<br />
promotes digestion, assimilation of nutrients<br />
and elimination of waste, and helps neutralize<br />
any toxic substances that enter the body.<br />

deficient?<br />
Minerals are the building blocks of<br />
good health. Some minerals are only<br />
needed in trace amounts where others<br />
like magnesium are needed in much<br />
larger amounts and on a regular basis to<br />
prevent deficiency and maintain optimum<br />
health. A large number of us do not<br />
obtain sufficient magnesium from our<br />
diet and may notice some of the common<br />
signs of deficiency. Some of the more<br />
common symptoms that may be caused by<br />
insufficient magnesium are: leg and muscle<br />
cramps, twitches, muscle pain, muscle<br />
fatigue and weakness, tremors of hands,<br />
blurred vision, restlessness, poor sleep,<br />
raised and/or unstable blood pressure,<br />
poor circulation, irregular heartbeat,<br />
shortness of breath, swallowing problems,<br />
dizziness, headaches, anxiety, agitation,<br />
irritability, seizures, poor concentration<br />
and many more.<br />
Although many young people now show<br />
signs of magnesium deficiency symptoms<br />
generally worsen as we age due to our<br />
digestive system being less efficient. Taking<br />
a magnesium supplement of sufficient<br />
strength may be a sensible option to top<br />
Numerous HealtH Problems may be a magNesium DeficieNcy!<br />
Some of the common symptoms can be:<br />
- Leg cramps<br />
- Leg pain<br />

Be health smart<br />
this winter<br />
HaNDS arE the main pathways of germ<br />
transmission. Hand hygiene is therefore<br />
the most important measure to avoid the<br />
transmission of harmful germs.<br />
Wash your hands, before & after food<br />
preparation and eating, if you borrow<br />
someone elses equipment and of course<br />
after blowing your nose. For convenience<br />
it is a good idea to have hand sanitiser on<br />
hand to use in between washing.<br />
Sneezing & coughing into the crook<br />
of your arm or tissues rather than your<br />
hand, reduces the spread of airborne<br />
bugs. remove tissues to the rubbish<br />
immediately.<br />
Keep hydrated, two thirds of your body<br />
is made of water, so keeping hydrated<br />
is one of the most important things you<br />
can do for your health. Dehydration<br />
symptoms range from headaches to<br />
nausea to fatigue, but the effects of<br />
dehydration on your immune system are<br />
not always as obvious. Staying hydrated<br />
keeps the mucus membranes moist, which<br />
keeps the immune system functioning<br />
optimally. Unfortunately, lattes and wine<br />
don’t count, but upping your intake of<br />
water is incredibly beneficial. aim to<br />
drink at least eight glasses of water a day.<br />
You’ll notice the difference!<br />
Eat in season, poor nutrition impairs<br />
the immune response. Fresh vegetables,<br />
fruits, nuts, grains and legumes or pulses<br />
are full of immune-boosting properties<br />
and antioxidants. Nature provides fresh<br />
seasonal foods to compensate for what<br />
our bodies are lacking at that time of<br />
year. Kiwifruit & citrus fruits that are in<br />
season throughout winter are packed with<br />
Vitamin C.<br />
Stress less, although short periods of<br />
stress can actually be good for us longterm<br />
chronic stress lowers our immunity,<br />
making us more susceptible to colds and<br />
flu. We all have our own ways of coping<br />
and reducing stress so whether it’s taking<br />
a bath, going to the gym, getting outdoors<br />
in the garden or having fun with the kids,<br />
do something to unwind. Not only are<br />
you doing your adrenal glands a favour,<br />
you’re also reducing your chances of being<br />
struck down by the latest virus.<br />
Get a good night’s sleep, sleep is<br />
essential for your body to rest, repair and<br />
rejuvenate. (Don’t you find you always<br />
tend to look your best after a good night’s<br />
sleep?) The human growth hormone<br />
that’s released during sleep helps repair<br />
your body at a cellular level, but it’s<br />
also beneficial for the immune system.<br />
Interrupted sleep (or just not enough of<br />
it) significantly reduces the effectiveness<br />
of your immune system, particularly the<br />
natural killer cells, which is your body’s<br />
first line of defence against germs.<br />

Christchurch<br />
School of Music<br />
INTERNATIONAL SUCCESS: The National Brass Band of New Zealand, which<br />
includes 13 Christchurch members, were runners-up in a section of the World<br />
Music Contest. <br />
Woolston Brass members play<br />
big role in international success<br />
CHRISTCHURCH musicians feature<br />
prominently in the National Brass Band<br />
of New Zealand, which was named<br />
runner-up in the brass band section of<br />
the World Music Contest.<br />
A third of the band members are from<br />
Christchurch, with all but one playing<br />
for Woolston Brass.<br />
The contest is held every four years in<br />
Kerkrade, the Netherlands.<br />
The New Zealand band’s programme<br />
opened with Whakarangatiratanga,<br />
commissioned from New Zealand composer<br />
Gareth Farr.<br />
The programme also featured a new<br />
major work written for the band by<br />
renowned English composer Peter<br />
Graham. The 39 th Parallel is based on the<br />
landscape and mythology of the Wanganui<br />
region in memory of brass band<br />
icon Kevin Jarrett.<br />
This year more than 20,000 musicians,<br />
making up 260 bands from 32 countries<br />
and five continents, participated.<br />
The band performed concerts in Stein,<br />
the Netherlands, and Aachen, Germany,<br />
before returning to New Zealand last week.<br />
The 13 Christchurch musicians<br />
are Kevin McMorran, New Brighton,<br />
Anthony Smith, Sydenham, Kevin<br />
Hickman, Sydenham, and his brother<br />
Graham, Huntsbury, Andrew<br />
Yorkstone, Burnham, Joe Thomas<br />
and Sam Pinder, Hoon Hay, Phillip<br />
Johnston, Spreydon, Nigel Seaton<br />
and his son Jordan (the youngest<br />
member of the national band at 20<br />
years of age), John Mason, Burnham,<br />
Cameron Lee, Ilam and Vaea<br />
Peterson, Halswell.<br />
The Christchurch School of Music is<br />
a family-oriented community aimed at<br />
providing quality music education in and<br />
around Christchurch.<br />
CSM is a not-for-profit organisation with a<br />
strong focus on community. On a Saturday<br />
morning the whole family can find something<br />
to suit. Preschool and junior school children<br />
can start their musical journey by joining<br />
in our experiential “Take Off with Music”<br />
while older children and adults may opt for<br />
group or individual lessons on a specific<br />
instrument (including voice). Those who<br />
already play are welcome to join in one of<br />
the great ensembles which all take part in<br />
regular concerts including Saturday soirees<br />
and the popular annual Showcase Concert.<br />
Solo Recitals where individuals can perform<br />
are held regularly.<br />
CSM also provides a comprehensive music<br />
education to participating primary schools<br />
via its Outreach programmes offering<br />
tuition in band, strings, recorder, ukulele<br />
and classroom music in a wide range of<br />
Christchurch schools.<br />
Age is no limit - our Late Starters<br />
programme provides the opportunity for<br />
adults approaching retirement with more<br />
time on their hands to learn an instrument<br />
and join an ensemble with other like-minded<br />
adults.<br />
If Saturday isn’t an option, CSM also offers<br />
a range of weekday opportunities for learning<br />
and playing music and, if affordability is an<br />
issue, CSM may be able to offer a discount<br />
through funding provided by the Rata<br />
Foundation.<br />
Term 3 starts on Saturday 29 <strong>July</strong> and we<br />
can take new enrolments in most classes and<br />

Ensuring a safe work place<br />
LEArning firST aid is not only a<br />
part of ensuring a safe work place, but also<br />
an integral part of our engagement with<br />
the wider community. We all learn the<br />
necessary skills to ensure that in times of<br />
emergency we are able to assist our work<br />
colleagues, but are we able to take these<br />
skills home, into the community or on to<br />
the sports field?<br />
not all work places are the same and<br />
the injury risk for each place can be<br />
wide and variable. The office attended by<br />
administrators does not carry the same<br />
risk as those people working with heavy<br />
machinery, or perhaps at some distance<br />
from a regular ambulance service. it is<br />
therefore essential that you pick the right<br />
first aid course to suit all of your activities<br />
– both professional and social.<br />
Take, for example, an office worker who<br />
does not have a high risk work environment<br />
and whose concern might be to ensure<br />
that they can deal with minor cuts and<br />
superficial injuries, or the ability to perform<br />
effective CPr. These skills can be achieved<br />
on a course of eight hours duration and<br />
would generally fit into low to medium<br />
risk area. But take this same person on to<br />
a sports field either as a spectator or player<br />
when a higher level injury occurs. The<br />
eight hour course covering unit standards<br />
6402 and 6401 (or 26551 and 26552) does<br />
not cover head neck and spinal injuries,<br />
eye injuries, hypothermia and poisonings.<br />
The majority of injuries occur outside of<br />
the work place, in fact one in three injuries<br />
occurs in the home, making it the most<br />
common place for injuries to happen.<br />
new Zealand children are twice as likely<br />
to die through injury as children who live<br />
in Australia. They mostly die as a result<br />
of motor vehicles accidents or falls in the<br />
home. fatalities from leisure and sport are<br />
not far behind those in the workplace.<br />
The wider 12 hour course teaches the<br />
additional unit standard 6400 and provides<br />
a wide knowledge base for medium to high<br />
risk environments. This course covers<br />
many of the skills required to deal with<br />
the most common injuries, such as falls<br />
(which can result in head, neck and spinal<br />
injuries) and dealing with complex scenes<br />
such as motor vehicle accidents.<br />
if you are not sure on the course best<br />
suited to your needs, ask your accredited<br />
first aid training provider. They can explain<br />
the course content and give you options<br />
that will best suit your needs. Look beyond<br />
the workplace and consider your family<br />
and your location. Check that you have a<br />
good quality first aid kit that is up-to-date<br />
with replenished items, and that everyone<br />
knows where it is located.<br />

settle into the winter months a great way<br />
to lift the winter spirits, is to enrol in a<br />
course of interest – maybe something that<br />
you have tried before and want to explore<br />
further or perhaps you would like to try<br />
something new.<br />
It has been proven that Lifelong Learning<br />
has many benefits with the obvious ones<br />
being the continuation of a learning<br />
journey, learning a new skill, increased<br />
confidence, meeting new people and much<br />
more. Our full range of classes can be<br />
viewed on our website www.risingholme.<br />
org.nz<br />
Is English your second Language? In<br />
term 3 we have ESOL classes including<br />
IELTS running at Risingholme Community<br />
Centre, Riccarton High School and Shirley<br />
Boys. Other Language classes include,<br />
German, Spanish, Italian, Russian, Arabic,<br />
NZ Sign and Te Reo. So if you would like to<br />
improve your English or learn a new<br />
language you can enrol via our website<br />
www.risingholme.org.nz or phone the<br />
Risingholme office 332 7359<br />
New and exciting at Risingholme<br />
Community Centre is Zentangle.<br />
What is this you might say - well if<br />
you can’t sit still enough for yoga, or<br />
your mind wanders in meditation,<br />
or you would like a creative aspect to<br />
your mindfulness, this may work for<br />
you. This method of drawing does not<br />
require any previous drawing ability,<br />
it can be a 15 minute practice you can<br />
build into your everyday, or you can<br />
explore some of the more creative ways<br />
you can then use this design practise<br />
to make your own cards, images, or<br />
decorate products. This class will teach<br />
you a variety of ‘tangles’ and get you started<br />
on your Zentangle path in a supportive and<br />
creative atmosphere, and you can build it<br />
at a pace that suits you, within your time<br />
constraints or desire as you move through<br />
the term.<br />
If you would like to know more about<br />
these classes or others on our website<br />

HOME & HEATING<br />
Get rid of dampness<br />
in your house<br />
Now wITH the colder and wetter weather<br />
on its way, home owners are focusing on<br />
ways to make their homes comfortable, warm<br />
and healthy for their families throughout<br />
winter. RISING dAmp is an issue that affects<br />
many of our older properties which suffer<br />
from poor, or no, insulation. In Canterbury<br />
especially, post-quake, many people have<br />
relocated to homes that suffer from rising<br />
damp which can be associated with health<br />
problems. Independent tests have shown<br />
that up to 40 litres of water can rise from the<br />
ground and enter a house every day, leading<br />
to mildew, mould, condensation and musty<br />
smells. moulds can produce various allergic<br />
reactions and the frail, elderly and very young<br />
are especially vulnerable.<br />
Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd is a<br />
locally owned and operated firm. The team<br />
understands the problems caused by rising<br />
damp and are there to help. They will come<br />
to your damp home and pump a lightweight,<br />
flowable foam concrete under your timber<br />
floored home. Specially adapted for our<br />
New Zealand conditions and applications<br />
it provides a layer of protection against<br />
rising moisture. An unexpected benefit that<br />
the team at Canterbury Foam Concrete<br />
have noticed recently, is that many owners<br />
of properties which had underfloor foam<br />
concrete installed, reported that it also<br />
provided protection against liquefaction after<br />
the earthquakes.<br />
Contact Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd<br />
now for your free, no obligation quote and<br />
complimentary appraisal of your underfloor<br />
ventilation needs. Phone 03 376 4608 or<br />

The facts about<br />
home ventilation<br />
Balanced Pressure vs Positive Pressure<br />
Under the New Zealand Building Code,<br />
all buildings, including residential, need to<br />
be suitably ventilated, either with opening<br />
windows or forced ventilation. Clause G4.1<br />
states: “The objective of this provision is<br />
to safeguard people from illness or loss of<br />
amenity due to lack of fresh air.” There are<br />
many benefits to forced, or mechanical,<br />
ventilation over opening windows, including<br />
warmth, security, reduction of outside noises<br />
and reduction of condensation.<br />
Traditional domestic ventilation systems<br />
are ‘positive pressure’. They bring air in from<br />
outside via the roof space and force the stale air<br />
out through gaps around windows and doors.<br />
The incoming air from these<br />
systems has to be heated or<br />
cooled to keep the house warm<br />
in winter or cool in summer.<br />
The Smooth-Air HEX390 is<br />
a ‘balanced pressure’ system. It<br />
extracts air from the house and<br />
at the same time brings in fresh<br />
air. These two streams of air<br />
pass through a heat exchanger,<br />
which warms incoming air in<br />
winter and cools in summer if<br />
air conditioning is being used.<br />
This means that up to 80% of<br />
the energy which would be<br />
Balanced<br />
Pressure<br />
Ventilation<br />
wasted using a traditional positive pressure<br />
system is recovered, resulting in significant<br />
energy savings and therefore lower heating or<br />
cooling costs.<br />
Until recently, balanced pressure ventilation<br />
systems have been considerably more<br />
expensive than traditional positive pressure<br />
systems. However, with Smooth-Air’s unique<br />
manufacturing capabilities, a HEX390<br />
balanced pressure system can be installed for<br />
a similar price as a traditional positive pressure<br />
system.<br />
