Recipe for disaster as rat-runners 

avoid busy intersection queue 

• By Julia Evans 

FRUSTRATED motorists 

waiting for a green light at a busy 

intersection are taking short cuts 

through a bar’s car park – which 

the owner says is a recipe for 

disaster. 

And if someone is injured it 

will be the city council’s fault, 

co-owner of Bailies Bar and Restaurant, 

Richard Norton said. 

His bar is on the busy 

intersection of Colombo St 

and Edgeware Rd. Drivers cut 

through the car park to avoid the 

lights.

“People have started 

racing through the car 

park, it’s dangerous, 

it’s going to cause an 

accident,” Mr Norton said. 

He said it’s frustration 

that causes accidents and 

one is inevitable if the 

lights stay in the “absolute 

shemozzle” they are. 

“If that [an accident] 

happens, I’d hold the city council 

responsible since they know 

the intersection isn’t working 

properly,” he said. 

The city council told Nor’West 

News the congestion is due to

drivers not approaching 

the intersection properly 

rather than incorrect 

light phasing so it won’t 

be putting in a fix. 

“Investigations of 

the site have found that 

the traffic signals are 

correctly configured, 

however, due to some 

uncertainty of drivers 

regarding how to use road space 

there is increased congestion as 

a result of the traffic signals not 

operating as intended,” Christchurch 

Transport Operations Centre 

manager Ryan Cooney said.

The underground detectors on 

Colombo St are adjacent to the 

centre line, as there is car parking 

next to the kerb for the shops. 

“Unfortunately, some drivers 

are stopping adjacent to the kerb 

when waiting at the limit line 

and therefore the traffic signal 

phase for Colombo St is not being 

called,” he said. 

Mr Cooney said the city council 

would not be putting in more 

sensors to trigger the lights. 

He said if a vehicle parked with 

no intention of going through, 

the signals would change the 

phase allowing for movement

from Colombo St when it is not 

necessary. 

“Therefore detectors would 

result in too much time being 

allocated to Colombo St.” 

But Mr Norton said the city 

council is simply trying to “pass 

the buck” and not take responsibility 

for the error. 

“You’ve never seen another 

intersection like it anywhere else 

in the city and there’s a reason 

for that,” he said. 

The city council has received 

six complaints about the lights 

that were installed as part of the

EDITOR’S 

DESK 

TWO CASEBROOK Intermediate 

pupils are off tomorrow to the 

world’s hottest spot at the moment 

– the Korean peninsula. 

Ben Donaldson and Bronte 

Perriam are off to a problem 

solving competition in South 

Korea. How ironic is that! 

They will represent New 

Zealand at the e-ICON World 

Contest in Busan, and will be 

accompanied by deputy principal 

Nick Leith (see page 6). 

Nick told reporter Julia Evans 

he wasn’t too concerned about the 

volatile situation between North 

Korea and the United States. 

“We’re focusing on all the 

opportunity to work in a positive 

environment to help solve global 

issues,” he said 

If they come up with any ideas 

maybe they should call Kim Jong 

Un and Donald Trump.

Council in tough spot over sign 


CITY COUNCIL staff are 

between a rock and a hard place 

regarding a contentious sign on 

the fence of 85 Westminster St, 

St Albans. 

That was the view expressed 

by the Papanui-Innes 

Community Board at its 

meeting on Friday. 

The sign, which reads “St 

Albans children matter, slow 

down”, was put up by St Albans 

School parent Rachel Donaldson 

in a bid to put the spotlight on 

dangerous driving in the area. 

The city council’s compliance 

team had to investigate the sign 

after receiving a complaint and 

found it was illegal. 

It said the sign “does not 

comply with the District Plan”. 

When asked by Nor’West 

News why the sign does not 

comply with the plan, city 

council principal adviser of 

regulatory compliance Claire 

Le Grice said no further 

comment could be made until 

investigations were complete. 

Board chairwoman Ali Jones 

said the city council can’t “pick 

and choose” when to uphold 

complaints. 

“What I find interesting is 

the complaint itself. I don’t 

know who would complain and 

why? It’s hardly a neon flashing 

sign but then again, people are 

within their rights to make a 

complaint,” she said. 

Board member Jo Byrne said 

it was frustrating how the city 

council was working in two different 

ways. 

One faction was working to 

address dangerous driving in 

the area and the other is saying 

the signs must be removed. 

“They [the city council] 

should be working with Rachel 

towards making the sign legal 

rather than telling her to take it 

down,” Ms Byrne said. 

In the meantime Christchurch 

Central Labour candidate 

Duncan Webb has provided a

temporary solution. 

He attached his picture and 

endorsed the sign with his 

signature, making it a political 

hoarding. 

“If people can see my face 

then that’s all good for me too, 

but I’m happy to help out,” Dr 

Webb said.

In Brief 

ALL-ACCESS PLAYGROUND 

A working party has been 

established for an all-access 

playground earmarked for the 

Papanui area. Papanui-Innes 

Community Board member Jo 

Byrne and city councillor Mike 

Davidson have joined the party 

along with members of the 

Papanui Youth Development 

Trust and Allenvale and 

Ferndale schools. Currently, St 

James Park is the most likely 

location for the playground 

which will offer play equipment 

that can be used by children of 

all abilities. 

NURSERY NOT A PARK 

Harewood Park will be renamed 

Harewood Nursery to avoid 

confusion over whether it is 

a public space. The 11.2ha 

nursery is not open to the public 

and is used to grow trees and 

plants for city council parks, 

street landscaping and the 

regeneration of native bush and 

wetlands. 

BLAIR AVE NO STOPPING 

New no-stopping restrictions 

will be put in on Blair Ave, 

Papanui. The restrictions, 

between KFC and the block of 

shops on the corner, will cover 

just over 4m. They will be put in 

place to stop vehicles blocking a 

driveway.

Meet Indy... 

MODERN: 

Davinia 

Sutton’s 

bathroom 

design won 

a supreme 

award for 

its beautiful 

elegance. 

Designer on a roll 

Meet Indy, an 11 year old speyed Lab 

cross, who presented for a hind leg 

mass. Indy has previously had tumors 

removed so the owners knew what to 

expect and wanted to get this mass 

checked out as it seemed to grow quite 

quickly. Indy was not bothered by it 

though and she wasn’t lame on the leg. 

Indy is a very special patient of mine 

as she has had not one but two knee 

surgeries about 4 years ago 

(2 months apart), to repair ruptured 

cranial cruciate ligaments. Fortunately 

her stifles give her no problems and she 

enjoys a very fit and active social life. 

FOR THE second year in 

a row, Merivale interior 

designer Davinia Sutton 

has won a top national 

prize. 

Judges called Ms Sutton’s 

bathroom design “beautiful 

and elegant” when 

they gave 

Elmwood 

her a supreme 

award at the New Zealand 

Kitchen and Bathroom Excellence 

in Design Awards 

in Sydney last week. 

They said her design 

was simple and stylish, 

minimal yet warm and 

comfortable. The design 

provided great storage and 

had a “lovely composition 

of colours”. 

Ms Sutton, who won 

the same award last year, 

said she is passionate 

about interior 

architecture, from 

traditional to modern 

in style. 

“My approach to 

each design is well 

thought out and 

highly considered.” 

Her company 

Detail by Davinia 

Sutton is a boutique design 

practice in Merivale’s Office 

Rd with a combined 

experience of over 25 years 

designing interiors. 

But National Kitchen 

and Bath Association president 

Annemarie Mains 

said her designs 

are of world class 

standard. 

“We have been 

so excited about 

the beautiful and 

creative kitchen 

and bathroom 

designs of the New 

Zealand designers 

this year,” she said. 

The awards are in their 

33 rd year and are the longest 

standing kitchen and 

bathroom design awards in 

the country. 

Davinia 

Sutton 

Olivia performed a FNA ( fine needle 

aspirate) on the large mass, that was 

very inflamed and was golf ball sized. 

Unfortunately she saw lots of “mast cells” 

under the microscope, giving a diagnosis 

of Mast Cell tumor ( MCT ). These tumors 

are malignant, grow fast and will set up 

in other sites quickly. Her only option was 

surgical removal to hopefully limit the 

spread and extend her life. 

Indy was admitted, blood tests performed 

in house and chest xrays taken to make 

sure the mass hadn’t spread. Catherine 

ultrasounded her liver as well to check 

tumor spread. All looked clear. There is no 

point subjecting Indy to a major surgery 

if we saw gross changes in other organs. 

We will never go in and operate on a 

malignant tumor without first making 

absolutely sure we cant detect disease 

elsewhere. 

Indy was then anaesthetized, connected 

to our Cardell monitoring machine and 

placed on intravenous fluids, then taken 

to surgery to remove her MCT. Kirsty, 

her surgeon, also had to remove the 

associated draining popliteal lymph 

node as it was enlarged and very close 

to the tumor. A wide resection was 

undertaken to ensure no tumor tissue 

was left behind. The mass will be sent off 

for histopathology to make sure no tissue 

was left behind. In 10 days after surgical 

removal, Indy will be back to her old self, 

charging around as though nothing has 

happened. 

Ultrasound is a widely used diagnostic 

tool at McMaster & Heap Vets. It would 

be fair to say it is used daily and we see 

referrals from other clinics as well. Our 

ultrasound is mainly used for scanning 

hearts, pregnancy diagnosis and viewing 

all the organs in the abdomen plus has 

an inbuilt ECG for looking at the electrical 

rhythm of the heart. Occasionally 

Catherine has scanned eyes and thyroid 

glands and tendons. Its great at picking up 

abdominal foreign bodies and showing 

abdominal masses. Ultrasound is quick 

and painless to the pet and usually yields 

an answer that helps us in deciding if 

the patient is a surgical candidate or not. 

We have just invested in a brand new 

human ultrasound machine – GE Vivid T8 

– to better enable our ultrasonographer 

Catherine accurate, fast diagnoses. 

If you have any questions regarding 

ultrasound in your pet, please feel free to 

call the clinic.

Problem-solvers go to South Korea 


BEN DONALDSON and Bronte 

Perriam have a chance to prove 

they are the best young 

problem-solvers in the world – 

and on the Korean peninsula of 

all places. 

The year 8 Casebrook 

Intermediate School pupils 

won’t be advising 

Donald Trump or 

Kim Jong Un on 

how to diffuse the 

tense situation, 

but they will be

Bronte 

Perriam 

Ben 

Donaldson 

Zealand at the 

e-ICON World 

Contest in Busan, 

South Korea. 

They leave 

tomorrow and will 

be accompanied by 

deputy principal 

Nick Leith. 

Held at the Ulsan 

National Institute 

of Science and 

Technology, the 

competition is centred around 

designing an “interactive digital 

resource” to help solve problems 

of the future, something the 

United States and North Korea 

might need help with. 

But Mr Leith said the 

heated North Korean political 

climate isn’t something they’re 

WORLD CLASS: Two Casebrook Intermediate pupils will head 

to one of the most volatile parts of the world, South Korea, for a 

global problem-solving competition. 

concerned about. 

“We’re focusing on all the opportunities 

to work in a positive 

environment to help solve global 

issues,” he said 

At 12-years-old, Ben and 

Bronte are the youngest pupils in 

the world selected for this year’s 

competition. 

“It’s meant to be a competition 

but it’s more about kids working 

together and solving problems in 

a fun way,” Mr Leith said. 

They will be competing 

alongside representatives from 

more than 16 countries, including 

South Korea, Japan, China, 

Thailand, the United States, 

Indonesia, Morocco, Malaysia 

and the United Kingdom. 

But, after putting forward a 

proposal around sustaining New 

Zealand’s environment, the pair 

were selected out of a nationwide 

pool of entries. 

“The proposal got accepted 

and the next thing the flight tickets 

arrived, it all happened very 

quickly,” Mr Leith said. 

But he said it’s only just sunk 

in that they’re going now and 

they’re excited. 

“I think it’s dawned on them 

how lucky they are,” he said. 

Ben and Bronte are collaborating 

with pupils from South 

Korea’s Buwon Girls’ Middle 

School to create an app about the 

sustainable environment, which 

they will then present to judges. 

“Ultimately they have to design 

a smart phone app around 

educating people, which is pretty 

intimidating but they’re both 

eager,” he said. 

So eager, they’ve already been 

in touch with the pupils from the 

school and have working on their 

Korean language skills. 

“Ben and Bronte are getting to 

know some of the other kids and 

picking up basic language skills. 

They’ve realised the importance 

of trying to connect through 

language,” he said. 

There will be an Olympic-style 

opening ceremony before the 

competition begins. Mr Leith 

said he expects it will “blow their 

minds.” 

“South Korean organisations 

tend to make massive deals out 

of ceremony – it’ll be incredible,” 

he said. 

And after four days of 

competition, Ben, Bronte and 

their teacher will have a day 

to soak up the sights of Busan 

before heading back to the 

airport. “It’s a bit of a whirlwind 

trip,” he said. 

But with all expenses paid, he 

said there’s nothing to complain 

about. 

Bus stops 

too far apart 

for elderly 


ELDERLY RESIDENTS living 

near Northlands Shopping 

Centre are struggling to walk to 

and from the bus stop. 

Because the distance between 

the two stops by the mall on 

Main North Rd falls outside 

city council policy, the Papanui- 

Innes Community Board is 

investigating. A stop on Main 

North Rd outside Countdown 

was removed to make way for 

the Papanui Parallel cycleway. 

City councillor Mike 

Davidson said he has been 

approached by several elderly 

residents who wanted the bus 

stop reinstated. 

Cr Davidson found it was 

650m between the bus stops, 

but said it should be less than 

500m. 

He said city council staff are 

looking into the possibility of 

putting another stop possibly 

near the intersection of Main 

North and Sawyers Arms Rds. 

“Due to the new signalised 

crossing for the cycleway, there 

was insufficient space for the 

bus stop directly outside Countdown,” 

city council head of 

transport Chris Gregory said.

Your Local Views 

Readers respond to the 

article about the city 

council upholding a 

complaint about a sign 

discouraging dangerous 

driving in St Albans 

Cathryn Lucy – How is this 

any different to Mount Pleasant 

School and their students putting 

“40km/h” road signs all over the 

hill with their “over the hill at 

40” campaign a year or so back? 

Just wondering why that was 

allowed and this isn’t? 

light cameras on every traffic 

light and apply demerits see how 

those people like that. 

Michael Stringer – Constant 

CCTV on all intersections 

to record red light runners. That 

will allow unemployment to 

drop as imagine how many staff 

would be required to review 

footage. But city council needs to 

put arrows on intersections and 

fix phasing as often the Bealey 

Ave and Papanui Rd intersection 

phasing is screwed up. 

Kevin Garty – Just paint the 

message on your fence, it’s not a 

“sign” then. What total tossers, 

the biggest tosser is whoever 

complained, the second largest 

tosser is the person who acted on 

the complaint. 

Pamela Neil – It should be a 

law as it is here and has been for 

many years. 40km/h in school 

zones 7-9am and 2-4pm. 

Jan Lowe – Who would 

complain about that and I’m 

guessing the council must have 

done all its chores around the 

city if they have time to bully 

someone over a sign. 

Jane Harwood – Put it 

on the inside of fence nice and 

high so can been seen. These are 

necessary signs. 

Chris Loach – City council 

do your job . . . fix CBD and stop 

worrying about a sign . . . get 

your priorities right. 

Mary Holden – Good on 

the woman at the intersection 

of Cranford St and Westminster 

who carries a sign and assists at 

the crossing. 

Zane Crofts – So old stupid 

council rules come before 

children’s safety. What kind of 

world are we living in if we’d 

always followed the rules and 

hadn’t pushed for change. We’d 

still have slavery, women not 

allowed to vote and gays going 

to prison. Rules change with 

the times and should be based 

on common sense and looking 

after the community and the 

environment. 

Suzanne Anderson – 

Maybe put it just inside the 

boundary high enough to still 

be seen. Readers also react to the 

article regarding a simple fix to 

red light runners outside Shirley 

Primary School. 

Tony Oosthuysen – Put red 

Judith Collins – Why aren’t 

there more arrow turning lights 

at intersections then maybe there 

wouldn’t be so many racing the 

red light. 

Lynda Byrnes – There are 

a lot of intersections on main 

roads, where you never get a 

chance to turn right if you don’t 

run the red light. Giving them an 

extra few seconds will make this

Training soldiers in Papanui during WW2 

Murray Williams, chairman of the Papanui Heritage Group, writes about what life 

was like in the suburb during World War 2 

THE WAR years were difficult 

ones for most New Zealanders 

and the experiences of those who 

lived in Papanui were probably 

typical. 

The first adjustment was the 

effect of the disappearance of 

many of the young men in the 

area – either because they volunteered 

for service in the armed 

forces or because they were 

conscripted. 

In the first years of the war, the 

New Zealand Division served in 

Greece, Crete and North Africa 

and, although the casualty rate 

was a huge concern for those 

with family members involved, 

in another sense the war seemed 

remote from the everyday lives 

of many New Zealanders. 

However, increasing tension 

WE NEED YOU: 

A Government attempt 

to increase interest in 

volunteering for home service 

throughout the country and in 

Papanui. 

in the Pacific led to the realisation 

that New Zealand could be 

vulnerable to direct attack. 

Those men who were not 

serving overseas were exhorted 

to join local units of the Home 

Guard, an invitation that later 

became compulsory for those 

who were able-bodied and aged 

between 35 and 50. 

The Papanui company was 

commanded by J.A. Gregor and 

was based at the Papanui Technical 

College in Langdons Rd. 

The training programme 

revolved around drill, route 

marches and lectures. 

But it was realised that to 

maintain enthusiasm, activities 

more relevant to defending the 

country should be encouraged. 

In May 1941, the Papanui unit 

joined those from Waimairi and 

Elmwood in an exercise on the 

Harewood golf course. 

Papanui’s role was to join 

Waimairi as the ‘enemy’ while 

Elmwood attempted to ‘dislodge’ 

them. 

The Royal New Zealand Air 

Force contributed an aircraft 

to simulate dive bombing and 

strafing and the lack of military 

hardware was solved by the use 

of flour bombs as hand grenades 

and tin rattles as machine guns. 

The exercise was observed by 

the national commander of the 

Home Guard, Major General 

Young, who expressed his satisfaction 

with the practical nature 

of the training. 

This exercise was to have 

consequences for at least one 

member of the Papanui unit. 

A local resident, the late Shona 

Elliott (née Turton) recalled that 

when her father returned from 

the exercise with his clothes 

covered in flour, he received a 

most hostile reception from her 

mother. 

Nevertheless, Home Guard 

exercises continued and the men 

were gradually equipped with 

uniforms, boots and rifles. 

By late 1943, it had become 

obvious that the threat of invasion 

had receded and the Home 

Guard units were disestablished. 

Uniforms had to be returned 

to the army but the former 

guardsmen were allowed to keep 

their army-issue boots.

Checkmate for Burnside teams 

BURNSIDE HIGH last had 

its name etched on the chess 

championship trophy 19 years ago 

– now the school’s finally done it 

again. 

The school’s A team, made up 

of Iain Thirring, Samuel Li, Robin 

Wan and Wynn Mo, came out on 

top of the Christchurch inter-secondary 

school chess competition. 

And the B team of Louie Lu, Yu 

Duan, Christopher Henry and Elias 

Mohammad finished third in the 

competition. 

In the B grade, the C team of 

Ryan Worsley, Lakshmi Thillaikkannan, 

Naduli Goonatillake and 

Leon Meierbrought brought home 

silver. 

The D team, made up of Gervinve 

Go, Sung Min Oh, Sehyun Kim and 

Jayon Thomas, came fourth. 

CONCENTRATION: 

Burnside High 

students battled 

it out at the 

Christchurch 

inter-secondary 

school chess 

competition. 

PRIZES: Burnside High’s A team took home the overall 

champions trophy and its B grade team received a plaque 

for second. 


AFTER SPENDING a 

night with the city’s most 

vulnerable, St Andrew’s 

College students have put 

together packs for people 

sleeping rough. 

Year 12 students Lewie 

Broadhurst, Ralph Clink, 

Hamish Sloper, Joseph Lin 

and Cosmo Bennett make up 

the business studies group, 

SHARECARE. 

As part of the class, the 

boys surveyed people at the 

City Mission’s night shelter 

and put together the packs 

which cater to their needs. 

“It opened our eyes to 

things, as when we were 

doing research for items 

it was quite amazing what 

everyday items we take for 

granted (which) homeless 

people lack,” Lewie said. 

He said after the survey 

the team put together packs 

which included medical kits, 

crystaderm cream, socks, nut 

bars, jackets, fleeces and a 

Macpac bag. 

The team approached 

Macpac which donated the 

backpacks free of charge.

CBHS to meet 

Nelson in UC 

champs semi 

• By Gordon Findlater 

CHRISTCHURCH Boys’ High 

will host Nelson College in the 

UC Championship semi-final on 

Saturday as they look to defend 

their title. 

CBHS cruised to victory 57-21 

in their final round-robin game 

against Lincoln Combined at the 

weekend. They previously defeated 

fourth placed Nelson 13-11 

in a tight encounter on June 24. 

Going into the weekend, CBHS 

looked odds on to face third 

placed Timaru Boys’ High in the 

semi-final. However, St Andrew’s 

College pulled off a spirited comeback 

to defeat Nelson 43-42. 

The win wasn’t enough for fifth 

placed St Andrew’s to qualify for 

the top four. They will now turn 

their attention to the plate competition, 

played between the fifth to 

eighth placed finishers.

• By Andrew King 

ST ANDREW’S College and 

Burnside High have made the 

semi-finals in the Connetics 

first XI football competition 

tomorrow. 

Burnside finished fourth and 

will play minor premiership 

winners St Thomas at 4pm, while 

St Andrew’s finished second 

and will take on third placed 

Cashmere High at 6pm. 

Both semi-finals will be played 

at English Park. 

St Andrew’s previously met 

Cashmere in round two, with 

Cashmere taking a 4-2 win at the 

Christchurch Football Centre, 

where all league games were 

played this year. St Andrew’s 

football co-ordinator Matt 

Jansen said they have learnt a lot 

since that loss. 

“[We are] looking forward 

to playing them again and 

embracing the challenges that 

the game will bring. We know 

that we can play good football on 

our day,” he said.

“[St Andrew’s] will be a hard 

side to break down with a very 

talented squad,” he said. 

“However, the boys have the 

self-belief, skill and desire to win 

. . . the boys are ready for the 

challenge.” 

Burnside were beaten 3-1 by St 

Thomas in round seven. 

St Thomas coach Richard 

Washington said it will be a 

fantastic match to be a part of. 

“As I have always said, any 

of the top six sides can beat 

anybody on the day. Wednesday 

will be no different and we 

will have to deliver our best 

this season, the side has racked 

up 497 points while only letting 

in 119. 

A win will see them clinch the 

automatic qualifiers berth in the

them against the top team from

capable quality side,” he said. 

Burnside coach David 

Williams said getting the 

defensive line right will be key. 

“Knocking them in is not the 

problem, we have scored 50 this 

season. But we have let a few 

in, so if we can minimise our 

mistakes at the back, we will be 

fine,” he said. 

All four teams finished the 

regular season last week with 

wins, scoring 18 goals between 

them.

FORMER ST Margaret’s 

College rower Star Davidson 

has just left for Charlottesville, 

Virginia, in the United States 

to pursue her dream of one day 

competing for New Zealand. 

Davidson, 18, will start a 

four-year stint at the University 

of Virginia and race in the 

National Collegiate Athletic 

Association division one competition, 

which includes more 

than 350 universities across 

the US. 

“I am extremely excited to 

settle in and get stuck into the 

American lifestyle, as well as 

the rowing and school work,” 

she said. 

She always wanted a “unique 

university experience”, so she 

buckled down and worked 

hard at school and put the 

hours in to be recognised as a 

rowing talent. 

Davidson started rowing 

when she was 13 and developed 

a huge love for the sport, 

especially the competitive 

nature of it. 

“I have always been a competitive 

person and winning is 

something that I enjoy, rowing 

helps me to fulfil this drive,” 

she said. 

SPORTS 

Her goal is to learn as much 

as she can in the US before 

returning to New Zealand to 

have a go at representing her 

country.

St Andrew’s duo help national crew to rowing silver 

Magazine & TV | sTyle.kiwi 


BEN TAYLOR and Thomas 

Russel have helped bring 

home a silver medal at 

the Junior World Rowing 

Championships. 

The St Andrew’s duo were 

part of the junior men’s coxless 

quad crew which narrowly 

missed out on gold to Great 

Britain on Lake Galve, 

Lithuania. 

The crew of four also 

included Matt MacDonald 

and Daniel Williamson, of 

Auckland, and was coached 

by Tony O’Connor. They were 

the only New Zealand team to 

make the podium. 

Taylor and Russel were a part 

of this year’s winning 

St Andrew’s Maadi Cup crew 

which not only brought back 

the top prize for the first 

time in the college’s history, 

but the Springbok Shield as 

well.

GREAT food 

BROUGHT TO YOU BY... 

Your fresh food people 

ROASTED CARROTS WITH 

ORANGES AND AVOCADO 

Ingredients 

2 cloves Garlic, crushed 

1 Red chilli, deseeded and finely 

chopped 

1 tsp Cumin seeds, toasted and 

ground 

4 Tbsp Olive oil 

500g Carrots, small, scrubbed 

½ cup Vegetable stock 

3 Oranges 

1 Avocado, firm and ripe, halved, 

stone removed and peeled 

1 Lemon, juiced 

¼ cup Pomegranate seeds, 

optional 

1 handful Basil leaves 

Directions 

Heat the oven to 200 deg C. 

Place the garlic, chilli and cumin 

in a small bowl and mix with one 

tablespoon olive oil to make a 

paste. 

Place carrots in an ovenproof 

dish and rub with the garlic 

paste. Pour ½ cup vegetable 

stock into the corner of the dish 

to prevent unsettling the paste. 

Cover the dish with foil and 

place in the oven. Roast carrots 

for 20-25min until just tender. 

Remove from the oven and allow 

to cool to room temperature. 

Place carrots on a serving plate 

and reserve cooking juices. 

Segmenting an orange: Cut the 

top and bottom off the orange. 

Place one of the cut sides down 

on a board. Starting at the top 

and following the contour of the 

orange, cut off the skin, leaving 

no white pith behind. Working 

over a bowl to catch the juice, 

cut between the membranes to 

release orange segments, reserve 

juice. Place segments on top of 

the carrots as you go. Repeat 

with remaining oranges. 

Slice the avocado and place 

on the salad. Squeeze over the 

lemon juice. 

Make a dressing by whisking 

the reserved orange juice with 

the remaining oil and flavour 

with some or all of the carrot 

juices. Season with salt and 

freshly ground black pepper. 

Drizzle over enough dressing to 

moisten the salad. 

Scatter over pomegranate 

seeds, if using, and the basil 

leaves. 

COURGETTES, MINT AND 

BROWN RICE 

Ingredients 

300g Courgettes 

400g Broad beans 

1 Ltr Vegetable stock, hot 

2 Shallots, medium, or a small 

onion 

60g Butter 

250g Brown rice, short grain 

½ cup White wine 

3 Tbsp Mint leaves, chopped 

1 handful Parmesan cheese 

4 Courgette flowers, optional 

Directions 

Wipe the courgettes, then slice 

them. Put them in a colander in 

the sink, generously grind salt 

over them and leave for at least 

20min. Pod the beans, cook 

them for 7-10min in very lightly 

salted boiling water, then drain. 

If the beans are large and you 

have the inclination, pop them 

out of their skins. Heat the stock 

in a saucepan and keep warm 

over a low heat. 

Peel the shallots or onion 

and chop finely. Cook in 40g of 

butter until soft but not coloured, 

stirring regularly so they don’t 

brown. Add the rice, stir to coat 

the grains in the butter, then 

pour in the wine. 

Let it almost evaporate, then 

start to add the hot stock a 

ladleful at a time, stirring almost 

continuously. You will find that 

the rice will take a good 40min 

to cook to tenderness – that is, 

considerably longer than white 

risotto rice. 

As the rice approaches 

tenderness (at least 35min into 

cooking), squeeze the courgette 

dry and stir it in. 

Continue cooking then, as the 

rice is almost cooked, add the 

beans, chopped mint and, if you 

are using them, the courgette 

flowers. Check the seasoning, 

adding black pepper and a little 

salt (you may not need any salt 

at all), then stir in the remaining 

butter and the grated parmesan. 

Serve in warm shallow bowls, 

with a little more cheese if you 

wish.

Ensuring a safe work place 

Learning first aid is not only a part of ensuring a safe 

work place, but also an integral part of our engagement with the 

wider community. We all learn the necessary skills to ensure that 

in times of emergency we are able to assist our work colleagues, 

but are we able to take these skills home, into the community or 

on to the sports field? 

not all work places are the same and the injury risk for each place 

can be wide and variable. The office attended by administrators 

does not carry the same risk as those people working with heavy 

machinery, or perhaps at some distance from a regular ambulance 

service. it is therefore essential that you pick the right first aid 

course to suit all of your activities – both professional and social. 

take, for example, an office worker who does not have a high 

risk work environment and whose concern might be to ensure that 

they can deal with minor cuts and superficial injuries, or the ability 

to perform effective CPr. These skills can be achieved on a course 

of eight hours duration and would generally fit into low to medium 

risk area. But take this same person on to a sports field either as a 

spectator or player when a higher level injury occurs. The eight 

hour course covering unit standards 6402 and 6401 (or 26551 and 

26552) does not cover head neck and spinal injuries, eye injuries, 

hypothermia and poisonings. 

The majority of injuries occur outside of the work place, in 

fact one in three injuries occurs in the home, making it the most 

common place for injuries to happen. new Zealand children 

are twice as likely to die through injury as children who live in 

australia. They mostly die as a result of motor vehicles accidents 

or falls in the home. fatalities from leisure and sport are not far 

behind those in the workplace. 

The wider 12 hour course teaches the additional unit standard 

6400 and provides a wide knowledge base for medium to high risk 

environments. This course covers many of the skills required to 

deal with the most common injuries, such as falls (which can result 

in head, neck and spinal injuries) and dealing with complex scenes 

such as motor vehicle accidents. 

if you are not sure on the course best suited to your needs, ask 

your accredited first aid training provider. They can explain the 

course content and give you options that will best suit your needs. 

Look beyond the workplace and consider your family and your 

location. Check that you have a good quality first aid kit that is 

up-to-date with replenished items, and that everyone knows where 

it is located.

HOME & HEATING 

Get rid of dampness 

in your house 

Now wITH the colder and wetter weather 

on its way, home owners are focusing on 

ways to make their homes comfortable, warm 

and healthy for their families throughout 

winter. RISING dAmp is an issue that affects 

many of our older properties which suffer 

from poor, or no, insulation. In Canterbury 

especially, post-quake, many people have 

relocated to homes that suffer from rising 

damp which can be associated with health 

problems. Independent tests have shown 

that up to 40 litres of water can rise from the 

ground and enter a house every day, leading 

to mildew, mould, condensation and musty 

smells. moulds can produce various allergic 

reactions and the frail, elderly and very young 

are especially vulnerable. 

Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd is a 

locally owned and operated firm. The team 

understands the problems caused by rising 

damp and are there to help. They will come 

to your damp home and pump a lightweight, 

flowable foam concrete under your timber 

floored home. Specially adapted for our 

New Zealand conditions and applications 

it provides a layer of protection against 

rising moisture. An unexpected benefit that 

the team at Canterbury Foam Concrete 

have noticed recently, is that many owners 

of properties which had underfloor foam 

concrete installed, reported that it also 

provided protection against liquefaction after 

the earthquakes. 

Contact Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd 

now for your free, no obligation quote and 

complimentary appraisal of your underfloor 

ventilation needs. Phone 03 376 4608 or

The facts about 

home ventilation 

Balanced Pressure vs Positive Pressure 

Under the New Zealand Building Code, 

all buildings, including residential, need to 

be suitably ventilated, either with opening 

windows or forced ventilation. Clause G4.1 

states: “The objective of this provision is 

to safeguard people from illness or loss of 

amenity due to lack of fresh air.” There are 

many benefits to forced, or mechanical, 

ventilation over opening windows, including 

warmth, security, reduction of outside noises 

and reduction of condensation. 

Traditional domestic ventilation systems 

are ‘positive pressure’. They bring air in from 

outside via the roof space and force the stale air 

out through gaps around windows and doors. 

The incoming air from these 

systems has to be heated or 

cooled to keep the house warm 

in winter or cool in summer. 

The Smooth-Air HEX390 is 

a ‘balanced pressure’ system. It 

extracts air from the house and 

at the same time brings in fresh 

air. These two streams of air 

pass through a heat exchanger, 

which warms incoming air in 

winter and cools in summer if 

air conditioning is being used. 

This means that up to 80% of 

the energy which would be 

Heat Transfer 

wasted using a traditional positive pressure 

system is recovered, resulting in significant 

energy savings and therefore lower heating or 

cooling costs. 

Until recently, balanced pressure ventilation 

systems have been considerably more 

expensive than traditional positive pressure 

systems. However, with Smooth-Air’s unique 

manufacturing capabilities, a HEX390 

balanced pressure system can be installed for 

a similar price as a traditional positive pressure 

system.

Learning through 

experiences, 

interactions and play 

at Marshlands Nest 

Roslyn Eason, fully trained and experienced 

early childhood teacher, owns and operates 

Marshlands Nest Early Learning Centre which 

is an intimate centre with a maximum of 25 

children. 

Roslyn says “Our goal is to create a setting 

where self-esteem, love, learning and respect 

for others is prominent and where every child 

leaves each day feeling secure and loved in 

their special environment. 

At Marshlands Nest they create a most 

positive environment for children so they can 

learn through all experiences and interactions 

but most importantly through play. 

They have a mixed licence which means 

children of different ages play and interact with 

each other. It allows siblings to be together 

and gives solo children a chance to be part of 

a larger family. It also means children do not 

need to transition between rooms so can stay 

with the same teachers and children. 

Marshlands Nest does recognize the need 

for age specific learning and a portion of each 

day is spent in ‘nest times” learning with 

others of the same age. 

The team at Marshland Nest would love to 

have you as part of their family, please feel 

free to drop in or give them a call.

HEALTH & BEAUTY 

Migraine relief 

Your headache or migraine may literally be a pain in the neck 

It’s not very well known that almost 13 

percent of people – including childrensuffer 

from headaches and migraines. 

It is the 3rd most prevalent illness in 

the world and causes 91 percent of the 

people it affects to miss work or reduce 

their functional capacity. In the past 10 

years, the understanding of what causes 

headaches and migraines has significantly 

changed. The research now shows that 

the sensitisation of the brain stem in 

your neck is what causes this pain; and 

the specially trained physiotherapists at 

Muscle People are well versed in how to 

treat it. 

Krissy Winter, a patient of Muscle 

People, had this to say about her 

experience: “My migraines were 

debilitating and they’d often come without 

warning. Sometimes once a week, but 

generally about once a month. I’d moved 

up from Dunedin where I’d managed them 

with my Osteopath, yoga and Pilates. In 

Christchurch I was so reluctant to let 

anyone near my neck. I read the article 

and I must admit I wasn’t convinced and I 

went to the first appointment with a page 

of all the concerns I had. The first time I 

met Laurie I remember walking out and 

feeling more in control. After about four 

treatments with Laurie and perfecting the 

technique she taught me I truly began to 

reap the benefits. Now I’m fantastic. If I 

feel a migraine coming on I now have the 

control to manage it myself, even stopping 

them from taking over, without needing 

someone to drive me in to the osteopath 

or the hospital for an injection to relieve 

the pain. With the technique Laurie 

taught me I’m armed and dangerous!” 

Laurie, Clare and Naomi were trained 

in Australia in the award winning and 

ground breaking Watson Approach to 

dealing with headaches and migraines. 

This proven method examines and treats 

the movements of the first three segments 

of the neck, which when sensitised cause 

headaches and migraines. 

“In our clinics we see people from 

as far away as Invercargill who come 

to us specially to seek treatment” says 

Laurie Moore, Director of Muscle People 

Physiotherapy. She says “The symposium 

in Australia we went to just recently 

reaffirmed the effectiveness of what we 

do, and honed our skills even more.” 

Generally patients will come to our 

clinic four or five times in the first few 

weeks of treatment. We show them some 

very simple exercises to do at home. After 

the first few weeks, treatment sessions are 

guided by how the patient is feeling. 

“Often patients come to us at the end 

of a long journey having tried quite a few 

other treatments, and we are able to help 

them reduce or remove their pain.” Laurie 

says.

coming on I now have
