Godwit plan grounded<br />
Planned<br />
site in<br />
no-man’s<br />
land<br />
FRASER WALKER-PEARCE<br />
Plans to put sculptures of<br />
godwits in South New Brighton<br />
are on hold because the<br />
proposed site is in<br />
“no-man’s land.”<br />
The South Brighton Residents’<br />
Association wants to put the<br />
seven sculptures on the banks<br />
near the south-eastern entrance<br />
of the Bridge St bridge.<br />
The association presented a<br />
report to the Burwood-<strong>Pegasus</strong><br />
Community Board last week.<br />
The board approved a<br />
$3974.25 grant for Southshore<br />
artist Bon Suter to begin work<br />
on the seven godwits, and ringfenced<br />
a further $8000 for the<br />
project until a location had been<br />
decided upon.<br />
Godwits are wading birds that<br />
visit the eastern suburbs every<br />
year, travelling long distances<br />
to get here in time for summer.<br />
They live in Alaska before<br />
undertaking a record non-stop<br />
ARTWORK: A concept of what the sculptures would look like near the Bridge St bridge, South New Brighton.<br />
migratory flight south to New<br />
Zealand’s coastline.<br />
But city council staff told the<br />
board members that after extensive<br />
research, it was found that<br />
the land didn’t belong to Land<br />
Information New Zealand, the<br />
city council, or the Crown.<br />
The land is classed as a common<br />
marine coastal area, and<br />
therefore “doesn’t belong to<br />
anyone.”<br />
City council’s community<br />
development adviser Heather<br />
Davies said the<br />
residents’ association<br />
would have<br />
to find somewhere<br />
else to install the<br />
artwork.<br />
“The land . . . is<br />
incapable of being<br />
owned. I’ve spoken to the South<br />
Brighton Residents’ Association<br />
and have suggested that they<br />
relocate to a different space .<br />
. . they have no right to put it<br />
there,” she said.<br />
But association chairman Hugo<br />
Kristinsson (left) said he will<br />
continue to push for the sculptures<br />
to be installed near the bridge.<br />
“It’s the most desirable spot,<br />
but if that’s not an option we<br />
will have to think about others.<br />
If it’s put in no man’s land and<br />
it’s not a nuisance, who would<br />
challenge it? I’d like to see if<br />
anyone has objections to us using<br />
that land,” he said.<br />
Mr Kristinsson said he has<br />
considered having the sculptures<br />
installed alongside the ‘welcome<br />
to South New Brighton’ sign.<br />
“That’s one of the options<br />
that has been identified, but the<br />
thing is it would look really nice<br />
where we had initially planned<br />
for it, so we will pursue that,”<br />
he said.<br />
HAVE YOUR SAY: Do you<br />
think the sculptures should<br />
be installed in no-man’s land?<br />

Long wait for proposed<br />
Waitikiri playground<br />
FRASER WALKER-PEARCE<br />
A playground that was first<br />
proposed for Waitikiri Square<br />
in February last year, won’t be<br />
installed until this Christmas.<br />
The Waitikiri Square<br />
Landscape Plan, including<br />
the installation of playground<br />
equipment, trees, a football<br />
goal, and seating went up<br />
for public consultation last<br />
February.<br />
But the city council says it is<br />
still in the detailed design stage,<br />
and the projected end date “is<br />
Christmas this year.”<br />
City council’s head of parks<br />
Andrew Rutledge said the<br />
community shouldn’t worry, as<br />
the budget that was talked about<br />
well over a year ago is still safe.<br />
“Funding is available for<br />
the installation of the play<br />
equipment, picnic table, park<br />
bench and post and bollard<br />
fence in (this) financial year,<br />
following annual plan approval.<br />
$137,000 has been set aside for<br />
this project,” he said.<br />
Mr Rutledge said construction<br />
estimates for the playground are<br />
still the same as they were during<br />
the consultation process.<br />
The park will be bordered by<br />
Waitikiri Square and Bluestone<br />
Drive, in the Waitikiri subdivision<br />
in Marshland.<br />
Waitikiri Residents’ Association<br />
chairman Rod Miller said<br />
people should be getting more<br />
for the rates they’re paying.<br />
“We do want<br />
to see it at the<br />
end of the year<br />
but I mean we<br />
could’ve said<br />
that this time<br />
last year. We are<br />
looking forward to seeing it, but<br />
it is taking a long time,” he said.<br />
Burwood-<strong>Pegasus</strong> Community<br />
Board member Linda Stewart<br />
(left) said the concept plan for<br />
the playground did not meet the<br />
expectations of residents.<br />
“It just doesn’t meet the<br />
expectations set by the<br />
residents. It’s a measly budget,<br />
and it’s not living up to what the<br />
developers had planned either,”<br />
she said.<br />
MEDICAL CENTRE<br />
CAR PARK SUPPORT<br />
Travis Medical Centre’s Dr<br />
Sue French has asked the<br />
Burwood-<strong>Pegasus</strong> Community<br />
Board to support them in<br />
lobbying to keep their car<br />
park. The lease on the car<br />
park could be in jeopardy if<br />
the QE II Park land sale deal<br />
is confirmed. The Ministry of<br />
Education has signalled it may<br />
want the land where the car<br />
park is situated. Community<br />
board chairwoman Andrea<br />
Cummings told Dr French that<br />
during the ongoing hearings<br />
process, the board cannot<br />
support the medical centre<br />
until a decision has been made<br />
either way. She said after a<br />
decision had been made the<br />
board would reconvene to<br />
make a decision.<br />

your local Views<br />
Readers respond to the<br />
<strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong> article on the<br />
fireworks display being moved<br />
away from New Brighton for<br />
the next two years:<br />
Paul Jennings: I have read<br />
about the fireworks being<br />
canned from the pier until<br />
repairs are complete. I think<br />
Hagley Park would be a better<br />
place than Scarborough.<br />
Think about the traffic. There<br />
is only one way in and out of<br />
Scarborough. Hagley Park is<br />
more central for all.<br />
Louise Macdonald: If we lose<br />
the fireworks to somewhere<br />
else, for example Sumner, we<br />
definitely won’t see the venue<br />
back in New Brighton. Also<br />
has anyone thought of the oneway<br />
road into Sumner, on Guy<br />
Fawkes night? It would be a<br />
nightmare for parents taking<br />
their families on the night of<br />
November 5.<br />
Can you imagine the chaos<br />
on the road into, and back out,<br />
especially in the dark? And<br />
don’t forget November 5 doesn’t<br />
always fall on a Saturday night,<br />
so children have to be back to<br />
school the next morning, and if<br />
it’s late, then hitting one-way<br />
traffic out of Sumner could<br />
mean they don’t get back home<br />
until after 11pm.<br />
It is bad enough driving home<br />

out of New Brighton – I know<br />
because one year our family<br />
went up from South Brighton<br />
to New Brighton, and when<br />
the fireworks finished, it took<br />
an hour or more to get back to<br />
South Brighton, with all the<br />
traffic. So from then on we<br />
just go over to the beach and<br />
watched from there.<br />
New Brighton certainly<br />
doesn’t need to lose any venues,<br />
it’s already suffering through<br />
lack of shops. Compared that<br />
to what it was like in its hay<br />
day. I agree with Tim Sintes’<br />
comment, “promises have a<br />
habit of being broken around<br />
here” – meaning New Brighton.<br />
So true.<br />

RISK MANAGEMENT<br />
OFFICER<br />
Only about 30 per cent of the<br />
calls we attend now actually<br />
involve fires. The other 70 per<br />
cent includes false alarms, car<br />
crashes, hazardous substance<br />
incidents and medical<br />
emergencies where we provide<br />
manpower with first aid skill<br />
to back up the experts from St<br />
John.<br />
Some of our work does not<br />
neatly fit into any of the normal<br />
categories. An elderly caller last<br />
Thursday had knocked a cushion<br />
that had fallen down the side<br />
of her hot water cylinder. She<br />
wondered if it was a fire risk. It<br />
probably wasn’t. But St Albans<br />
Red Watch crew went to her<br />
house and retrieved the cushion<br />
which almost certainly saved her<br />
days and nights of worry.<br />
We also saw the Wainoni crew<br />
travelling to Collingwood St in<br />
New Brighton the same day to a<br />
child who had managed to trap<br />
their leg in a gate. All the efforts<br />
of the locals were to no avail. A<br />
tool known as a hooligan bar,<br />
a kind of short crowbar, was<br />
utilised by the crew to bend the<br />
railings enough to release the<br />

There were a couple of<br />
potentially serious fires in the<br />
week. Both were of a suspicious<br />
nature. A camper van at the back<br />
of a vehicle dealer in St Asaph<br />
St was set alight and destroyed<br />
recently and on Wednesday<br />
night, fireworks were apparently<br />
utilised to ignite a fire on the<br />
Port Hills that was visible across<br />
the city.<br />
I’m sure police would<br />
appreciate any information<br />
that might identify either set of<br />
culprits.<br />

‘Risky’ alleyways a concern<br />
Residents worry over Haeata student safety<br />
FRASER WALKER-PEARCE<br />
Avondale and Wainoni residents<br />
are concerned that when Haeata<br />
Community Campus opens next<br />
year, students will be unsafe<br />
walking home from late-night<br />
events, due to a number of<br />
“dangerous” alleyways.<br />
The opening of Haeata will see<br />
the closure of Avondale, Wainoni,<br />
Aranui Primary, and Aranui High<br />
Schools, and is only three terms<br />
away from opening its doors.<br />
But concerns have been raised<br />
over the safety of students<br />
attending Haeata, who would walk<br />
to and from the school, and use<br />
these alleyways.<br />
At a recent Active and Passenger<br />
Transport Working Group meeting,<br />
the concerns were raised by<br />
Living Streets spokeswoman Meg<br />
Christie.<br />
Mrs Christie said that in daylight<br />
hours residents living around the alleyways<br />
didn’t think it was risky using<br />
them, but in the night and early<br />
morning, they saw a risk involved.<br />
“It’s the moving around to<br />
rugby training or church events or<br />
something that is the problem. If<br />
students are walking or cycling to<br />
and from their after-school events,<br />
they need to feel safe,” she said.<br />
In the Avondale-Wainoni<br />
suburbs, six alleyways have been<br />
named as needing more lighting,<br />
some back onto parks, and most<br />
are in residential areas.<br />
The alleyways of concern are<br />
between Mervyn Drive and Woolley<br />
St, Pembroke St and Emlyn<br />
Pl, Wainoni Rd and Aldershot St,<br />
Ben Rarere Ave and Aldershot St,<br />
Ventor and Corhampton Sts, and<br />
Meon and Warblington Sts.<br />
Mrs Christie said a lot of residents<br />
said they wouldn’t feel safe<br />
walking down certain alleyways,<br />
and wouldn’t recommend others<br />
to either.<br />
“The neighbours said ‘we don’t<br />
want to encourage people to walk<br />
down there’. They said it’s really<br />
scary at night. They lived there<br />
and felt it wasn’t safe,” she said.<br />
Burwood-<strong>Pegasus</strong> Community<br />
Board member Tim Baker said he<br />
was fully supportive of the alleyways<br />
receiving more lighting.<br />

ALLEGED ASSAULT<br />
A man suffered moderate<br />
injuries after he was allegedly<br />
assaulted last week in New<br />
Brighton. St John sent an<br />
ambulance to the incident, on<br />
Marine Parade, at about 7.30pm<br />
last Tuesday. The man, in his<br />
50s, was taken to hospital.<br />
ROAD REPAIRS<br />
From today Travis Rd, between<br />
Blue Gum Place and Atlantis<br />
St, will be closed for Stronger<br />
Christchurch Infrastructure<br />
Rebuild Team wastewater, storm<br />
water and road repairs. This<br />
is expected to take about two<br />
months. Traffic will be diverted<br />
around the site using the former<br />
QE II slip road. Meanwhile,<br />
traffic going east towards The<br />
Palms Shopping Centre is being<br />
detoured, because of culvert<br />
repairs. Traffic management is<br />
scheduled to be uplifted by late<br />
<strong>May</strong>. Work will be undertaken at<br />
night on North Parade, between<br />
Banks Ave and Randall St, and<br />
is due to finish early this week.<br />
SPEED BUMP NOT NEEDED<br />
A speed bump will not be<br />
installed on Saltaire St, North<br />
New Brighton, after a report<br />
by city council staff told a<br />
community board there was no<br />
need for one. The report was<br />
heard at last week’s Burwood-<br />
<strong>Pegasus</strong> Community Board<br />
meeting, and said the estimated<br />
cost of installing a speed bump<br />
on the street would be more than<br />
$30,000.<br />

School space draws interest<br />
from community groups<br />
FRASER WALKER-PEARCE<br />
Help for the Homeless is one of<br />
more than 50 community groups<br />
that has registered its interest<br />
in the use of a classroom at the<br />
former Central New Brighton<br />
School.<br />
Central New Brighton, along<br />
with Freeville and North New<br />
Brighton schools were merged to<br />
make way for Rawhiti School at<br />
the end of last year.<br />
ReNew Brighton has volunteered<br />
to help line up the use of<br />
the former school site with the<br />
best wishes of the community.<br />
The site has been split up into<br />
three sections. The hall, the pool,<br />
and the school sites.<br />
ReNew Brighton co-ordinator<br />
Sylvia Smyth said the hall site<br />
has not seen any changes, and<br />
is currently being used by the<br />
Christchurch Circus Trust.<br />
Meanwhile, a decision to<br />
demolish the pool site is being<br />
lobbied by the Strategic Urban<br />
Rejuvenation Force, after it<br />
was announced without public<br />
consultation.<br />
Ms Smyth said this has left the<br />
school site, which contains nine<br />
usable classrooms, up for community<br />
use.<br />
COMMUNITY USE: The former Central New Brighton School site is<br />
currently being negotiated for community use by ReNew Brighton.<br />
“We don’t know<br />
how long we will<br />
have this (site) for.<br />
The school has<br />
gone to the disposal<br />
process, which<br />
is what happens<br />
when the Ministry of Education<br />
doesn’t need the school anymore,<br />
and they’re in the process<br />
of getting rid of it,” she said.<br />
Help for the Homeless founder<br />
Amy Burke (above) said the group<br />
is “very interested” in using one of<br />
the classrooms for storage.<br />
“We are very interested in the<br />
site. We’re hoping for it, because<br />
then we can get a new space for<br />
storing furniture, although we<br />
haven’t been in contact with the<br />
organisers since then,” she said.<br />
She said getting a classroom for<br />
storage would “make things really<br />
easy”, because furniture currently<br />
has to be placed all over town.<br />
Ms Smyth said ReNew<br />
Brighton will continue<br />
negotiations with the Ministry of<br />
Education.<br />
“There was a huge variety of<br />
ideas and among that a strong art<br />
theme. We don’t know how we<br />
will operate just yet . . . we’re<br />
at the point now that we’ve said<br />
we’ll continue lease negotiations<br />
with the ministry,” she said.<br />
Owners just happy<br />
parakeet is alive<br />
FRASER WALKER-PEARCE<br />
A family who lost their parakeet<br />
two years ago have been<br />
reunited with their feathery<br />
friend, but they won’t take him<br />
back home, they’re just happy<br />
to see he’s alive.<br />
<strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong><br />
reported last<br />
week that a parakeet<br />
had made<br />
itself at home in<br />
a Burwood resident’s<br />
trees.<br />
A Shirley resident<br />
contacted<br />
the <strong>Pegasus</strong><br />
<strong>Post</strong> to say she<br />
thought the<br />
bird could be<br />
her “best fiend”<br />
Tweety Bird,<br />
who she lost two<br />
years before.<br />
Shahna Hira said she lost<br />
her pet parakeet two years ago<br />
when it managed to escape<br />
outside and fly away.<br />
“We did post things on Facebook<br />
and Trade Me and tracked<br />
him for a month after he flew<br />
away. We went to all the locations<br />
that people had said they’d<br />
seen him, but couldn’t find<br />
him,” she said.<br />
But, after reading last week’s<br />
article, Ms Hira was convinced<br />
that Tweety Bird had reappeared<br />
at Burwood residents<br />
Roger and Veronica Foley’s<br />
house. She made contact with<br />
the couple, who<br />
have had the<br />
parakeet visit them<br />
every day since<br />
they moved in last<br />
year.<br />
Ms Hira said<br />
she visited the<br />
Foleys twice to<br />
have a look at the<br />
parakeet, and was<br />
“certain” it was<br />
the same bird she<br />
had lost two years<br />
before.<br />
But she said as<br />
much as she wanted<br />
to catch Tweety<br />
Bird and take him home, she<br />
knew she had to leave him.<br />
“As much as we’d love to<br />
have caught him and taken him<br />
home, we’re just happy to know<br />
he’s happy, and happy to know<br />
he’s being looked after. I will be<br />
visiting him but it’s never going<br />
to be about us trying to catch<br />
him,” she said.

Colin Wood<br />
Pastor with a sense of adventure<br />
Newly-appointed<br />
Parklands Baptist<br />
Community Church<br />
pastor Colin Wood<br />
talks to Fraser Walker-<br />
Pearce about how he<br />
proposed long distance<br />
to his wife of 25 years,<br />
why his body doesn’t<br />
bounce like it used to,<br />
and why he chose to<br />
work in Parklands.<br />
Hi Colin, when did you come<br />
to Parklands, and why?<br />
I started at Parklands Baptist<br />
Community Church the week<br />
before Easter, and what brought<br />
me out here was, after pastoring<br />
in other places, I found they<br />
had a really strong community<br />
connection. Part of me wanted<br />
to become a pastor in a really<br />
interesting community.<br />
So it was the community<br />
connection that drew you in?<br />
It has a really strong community<br />
connection. We had<br />
friends who went through the<br />
earthquake and we really wanted<br />
to be here, but obviously at the<br />
same time I didn’t want to be<br />
here. The church is very involved<br />
in community. I can’t<br />
give you exact numbers but it’s<br />
an astonishing number of people<br />
coming through every week.<br />
There is a craft group, a move<br />
and groove group for toddlers,<br />
babies groups, and they show<br />
movies. They’re really very<br />
involved. It was very attractive<br />
for me.<br />
Where were you in 2011?<br />
I was in Invercargill, working<br />
with the Invercargill Central<br />
Baptist Church in 2011. When<br />
the earthquake rolled around,<br />
the Parklands church really did<br />
very well. They opened up their<br />
building, became an earthquake<br />
support area for the community<br />
and ran meals for everyone for<br />
about six weeks. I wasn’t here<br />
for it but I have heard from people<br />
around the area who say: ‘Oh<br />
Previously<br />
United Travel<br />
COMMUNITY LEADER: Colin and Linda Wood have recently moved to the eastern suburbs from Invercargill,<br />
and Colin is the new pastor of the Parklands Baptist Community Church.<br />
yes, I’ve had a meal there’ or<br />
something like that, about their<br />
experiences with the church.<br />
Wow, sounds like you’ve<br />
picked the right one. Where<br />
did you train to become a pastor?<br />
I trained at Carey College and<br />
also the University of Auckland.<br />
So I have a bachelor in theology,<br />
and have pastored in Ilam for<br />
eight years and another eight in<br />
Invercargill before that.<br />
And what did you do before<br />
that?<br />
Well this is where it gets interesting.<br />
I actually spent four years<br />
in Hong Kong and helped drug<br />
addicts for some of that.<br />
Well I wasn’t expecting that<br />
answer. How did you help<br />
them?<br />
It was astonishing, and probably<br />
one of the reasons I’ve ended<br />
up working as a pastor, is seeing<br />
a number of people change their<br />
lives. My background is with<br />
computers, and although computers<br />
are great, it’s even better<br />
seeing people change their lives<br />
for good, it’s just magnificent.<br />
So did you go over there<br />
specifically to work with drug<br />
addicts?<br />
I went over to work with<br />
computers, and wanted to see if<br />
I could live in another culture. I<br />
got involved with a church that<br />
was working specifically with<br />
heroin addicts. After we’d been<br />
involved with the church for a<br />
few years, full-time, we began<br />
running houses that housed recovering<br />
addicts. And that would<br />
probably have been for 24 hours<br />
a day, six days a week.<br />
So it was a successful exercise?<br />
A lot of those guys have overcome<br />
that now and they have<br />
lives now, it’s just fantastic. We<br />
do keep in touch with a few and<br />
they’re doing well, from what<br />
looked like dead-end stories, have<br />
now got lives and they’re out<br />
making a difference. That was for<br />
two years full-time, and a year<br />
and a half were volunteering.<br />
So if you were volunteering<br />
did you have to have a job<br />
there too?<br />
When we first got there I<br />
worked with computers, and<br />
my wife worked as a nurse, and<br />
is now a district nurse here in<br />
Christchurch. But we actually<br />
lived off our savings back then. I<br />
think it was in the mid-90s.<br />
So how old does that make<br />
you now?<br />
Hmm . . . let’s just say I’m in<br />
my 50s.<br />
Okay fair enough. Where did<br />
you meet your wife?<br />
I met my wife in Wellington.<br />
Fly Direct to Fiji<br />
Children Fly, Stay & Eat From $199. * Limited to the first 70 children.<br />
No, it wasn’t love at first sight<br />
(laughs) – love is a process.<br />
When I left to go to Hong Kong<br />
I actually called her from my<br />
hotel in Boston (during a stopover)<br />
and I proposed to her over<br />
the phone, while she was back in<br />
Wellington.<br />
What – really?<br />
I missed the engagement party<br />
and everything – don’t do it the<br />
way I did. I guess you could say<br />
I came to my senses right then<br />
and there, and have not regretted<br />
it ever since. We’ve now been<br />
married 25 years.<br />
Do you have any children?<br />
Yes, I have two daughters.<br />
They’re both university age. One<br />
is at Canterbury and one is in<br />
Dunedin, they’re both studying.<br />
And what do you do in your<br />
spare time?<br />
Well I surf . . . badly. I’m a<br />
bit of an old fogey, so I have a<br />
longboard, but my friend has<br />
leant me a shortboard so I will<br />
be trying out the shortboard<br />
soon. I’m really enjoying riding<br />
the mountain bike around Bottle<br />
Lake Forest as well. And I’m<br />
also an old school whitewater<br />
kayaker, which I don’t do as<br />
much anymore unfortunately,<br />
and I also play guitar.<br />
Would you say you like extreme<br />
sports?<br />
I actually skateboard to church<br />
sometimes. It’s just such a fun<br />
thing to do. It’s just really good<br />
getting some exercise. But I’m<br />
too old to get into the really extreme<br />
sports, I don’t take it down<br />
hills, you become aware that<br />
once you’re past 50 your body<br />
doesn’t bounce like it used to.<br />
Where were you born?<br />
I grew up in Christchurch on<br />
the Port Hills, from about age<br />
seven upwards. I wasn’t born<br />
here, I was born in Australia.<br />
Oh no, not an Aussie-born<br />
Kiwi?<br />
I won’t respond to what rugby<br />
team I support (laughs). I have a<br />
New Zealand passport but I was<br />
born in Manly.<br />
What schools did you attend?<br />
I went to Cashmere Primary<br />
and Cashmere High after that.<br />

Singing and signing<br />
Buddy classes at Banks Avenue School last week had a ‘singing and<br />
signing’ lesson. The school celebrated New Zealand Sign Language<br />
Week by learning letters and words from a pupil who has cochlear<br />
implants, with the help of her mother. Natalia and mother Liz<br />
Kay taught junior and senior buddy classes a fun way of learning<br />
sign language, through singing and dancing. New Zealand Sign<br />
Language Week started yesterday and runs until Sunday.<br />
EXCITED: These Rawhiti School<br />
pupils were among hundreds<br />
from South New Brighton and<br />
Rawhiti schools who will count<br />
down the sleeps until they watch<br />
the Warriors take on the Penrith<br />
Panthers. Last week nearly 500<br />
pupils and parents were handed<br />
tickets to attend the National<br />
Rugby League match thanks to<br />
the generosity of a number of<br />
local businesses. The Panthers will<br />
visit both schools on Thursday in<br />
the lead-up to the Saturday clash<br />
at AMI Stadium.<br />
New equipment, facilities<br />
welcome back Marshland pupils<br />
FRASER WALKER-PEARCE<br />
Marshland School pupils came<br />
back after the holidays to find<br />
they had a whole range of new<br />
equipment, a cricket pitch, and<br />
more seating for lunchtime.<br />
They were all installed at the<br />
school during the holiday<br />
break.<br />
Principal Jacqui Pascoe<br />
said the pupils have spent<br />
their morning tea and<br />
lunch breaks testing out<br />
the new equipment all<br />
week.<br />
“The children, teachers<br />
and parents at Marshland<br />
are all very excited to have<br />
the new equipment,” she<br />
said.<br />
The pupils have also been<br />
training for their upcoming<br />
cross-country event, which will<br />
be the first at the new site.<br />
Mrs Pascoe said the new track<br />
will be testing for the pupils.<br />
“At the new school, the crosscountry<br />
track is much more<br />
interesting with mounds for the<br />
children to<br />
run up and down,” she said.<br />
In addition to the pupils coming<br />
back from their holiday<br />
break, Mrs Pascoe said the second<br />
stage of development to the<br />
school is about to begin.<br />
“(Stage two) will<br />
consist of a new learning<br />
hub and da Vinci<br />
making space for our<br />
intermediate students,<br />
and a learning hub<br />
for a group of students<br />
from Ferndale<br />
School,” she said.<br />
She said the da<br />
Vinci space will be<br />
where pupils can<br />
design, create and<br />
collaborate on new ideas using<br />
technology.<br />

the kids outside testing it out for the past week.<br />

Many benefits from insulating homes<br />
HEALTHY: A workman installing insulation under the floor of a<br />
Canterbury home.<br />
A successful partnership<br />
between community, health<br />
and commercial organisations<br />
has helped save Canterbury<br />
DHB nearly $1m, by providing<br />
insulation and/or heating to high<br />
health needs patients.<br />
As well as reducing hospital<br />
costs, it has also assisted in ensuring<br />
people can remain in their<br />
own homes.<br />
In 2011, a Healthy Homes programme<br />
was created between the<br />
Canterbury DHB and the three<br />
Canterbury primary health care<br />
organisations, Community Energy<br />
Action, Environment Canterbury<br />
and the Energy Efficiency<br />
Conservation Authority. Orion<br />
and MainPower also contributed<br />
funding into this programme.<br />
The programme was developed<br />
to keep people in their own<br />
homes and communities rather<br />
than using hospital services. This<br />
recognised Canterbury’s compromised<br />
housing stock following<br />
the 20<strong>10</strong> and 2011 earthquakes.<br />
The Canterbury DHB and partnering<br />
organisations understood<br />
the potential benefits for frequent<br />
users of the health system of living<br />
in warm and dry homes, including<br />
improved physical and<br />
mental health.<br />
The programme initially focused<br />
on people who had been in<br />
the Christchurch Hospital at least<br />
twice within a year prior to the<br />
programme starting (defined as<br />
being the highest-needs patients).<br />
In July 2013, the programme was<br />
extended to include general practice<br />
patients, for example families<br />
with children under 17 years<br />
of age identified as being at risk<br />
and parents with newborn babies.<br />
The programme ran from 2011<br />
to late 2014 and the whole programme<br />
provided over 1500 insulation<br />
installations and 450<br />
heating appliances. Partnerships<br />
amongst the organisations meant<br />
many Healthy Homes’ clients<br />
were referred to other organisations<br />
and services, as additional<br />
needs were identified.<br />
A qualitative report was completed<br />
by <strong>Pegasus</strong> Health in June<br />
2015 on the whole programme.<br />
Canterbury DHB invested<br />
$1.7m over 2.5 years between<br />
2011 and 2014, covering 22 per<br />
cent of the total programme costs.<br />
Around half of the $1.7m invested<br />
went towards intervention<br />
costs for the 900 highest-needs<br />
patients, as defined above. The<br />
remaining partnering organisations<br />
covered the balance of the<br />
total costs. Of those 900 highest-need<br />
patients, a significant<br />
number of them were aged over<br />
65. There was an approximately<br />
60 per cent/40 per cent split between<br />
home owners and tenants.<br />
After reviewing the health<br />
data, comparing the year prior<br />
to the interventions with the year<br />
following, the findings showed a<br />
29.2 per cent reduction in hospital<br />
bed days of those 900 patients.<br />
This equates to a reduction of<br />
five bed days per annum, a cost<br />
saving to the Canterbury DHB of<br />
nearly $1m.<br />
“This means the programme<br />
was extremely successful for the<br />
community and all involved including<br />
the Canterbury DHB,”<br />
says Caroline Shone, chief executive<br />
of CEA.<br />
“Whilst the cost for insulation<br />
and heating is a one-off, the<br />
benefits last for years. I’m sure<br />
for the Canterbury DHB the return<br />
on investment can be spent<br />
on other health needs. This programme<br />
was a first for CEA and<br />
the other organisations involved,<br />
I am really happy that we have<br />
helped so many people working<br />
in partnership with Government,<br />
private and public sector organisations.”<br />
Greg Hamilton from the Canterbury<br />
DHB said he was “delighted<br />
with the results.”<br />
David Meates, CEO of Canterbury<br />
DHB said: “This is just<br />
brilliant to see the hard evidence<br />
being brought to life.”<br />
The above analysis only takes<br />
into account one of a number of<br />
benefits (hospitalisation) which<br />
result from improving a home’s<br />
insulation. There are other considerable<br />
benefits to this programme<br />
including:<br />
Hospital benefits after the first<br />
12 months – a single intervention<br />
has a 40-year life span taking into<br />
account the life of the insulation;<br />
benefits to partners, children and<br />
others living in the same dwelling;<br />
benefits to future occupants;<br />
reduction in other primary and<br />
community services required for<br />
intensive post-discharge rehabilitation;<br />
reduction in absenteeism<br />
from work/school for all home<br />
occupants due to improved overall<br />
health; people living in their<br />
own homes with better wellbeing<br />
and feeling safer; and empowerment<br />
through improved physical<br />
health, mental health and/<br />
or an improved general state of<br />
mind/well-being; establishment<br />
of other successful working relationships<br />
with a range of organisations,<br />
with a focus to assist<br />
vulnerable families.<br />
To date, EECA has provided<br />
approximately $450m worth of<br />
subsidies for insulation nationwide<br />
through their programmes,<br />
including Warm Up New Zealand.<br />
The Healthy Home Programme<br />
analysis shows the need to continue<br />
with programmes such as<br />
these, particularly when EECA<br />
and CEA through their own surveys,<br />
have identified that there<br />
are still over 30,000 low income<br />
family homes in Canterbury<br />
alone, with inadequate or no insulation.<br />
There have been other relevant<br />
New Zealand studies and discussions<br />
over the years around the<br />
need to improve housing quality<br />
and the associated health benefits.

CHRISTCHURCH SCHOOL OF MUSIC<br />
2015 was a really busy year for the<br />
Christchurch school of Music with lots of<br />
exciting things happening. In september<br />
the school celebrated its Diamond Jubilee<br />
– 60 years of providing excellent music<br />
tuition and ensemble opportunities to<br />
thousands of Cantabrians.<br />
Other highlights of 2015 were working<br />
with G&a Creative to develop a new<br />
website, logo and brand for the school and<br />
the signing of a sponsorship arrangement<br />
with the University of Canterbury for our<br />
flagship orchestra, now known as the UC<br />
Christchurch Youth Orchestra.<br />
Most exciting of all, in December, the<br />
school moved back home onto the site of<br />
the old Music Centre. with the support<br />
of the Catholic Diocese, the school is<br />
housed in four portable buildings on<br />
the site adjacent to Catholic Cathedral<br />
College where all the instrumental and<br />
voice teaching takes place on a saturday<br />
morning and after school. The buildings<br />
will officially open on Friday 13 <strong>May</strong><br />
with a celebration to say thank-you to<br />
all the organisations that have supported<br />
us to get to this stage. Many hours of<br />
work have gone into fitting out the new<br />
buildings with furniture, shelving, storage<br />
and teaching materials to ensure it is a<br />
friendly, welcoming and efficient place<br />
for the school to operate from. Particular<br />
thanks to Creative New Zealand and Rata<br />
Foundation who have provided financial<br />
support for the fit out<br />
so along with its new branding, a new<br />
user-friendly website and a great new<br />
place to call home the CsM is in good<br />
heart and enjoying a fantastic year of<br />
music making in <strong>2016</strong>.<br />
From pre-schoolers to septuagenarians,<br />
the CsM caters for a wide range of ages<br />
and musical styles offering opportunities<br />
for group or individual tuition in all<br />
instruments and an ensemble to suit<br />
everyone. with orchestras, choirs, jazz<br />

Tips to improve your running<br />
Running should be as easy as<br />
putting one foot in front of the other<br />
right? Anyone can run, but having good<br />
technique can make it feel so much<br />
easier.<br />
good running technique will make<br />
your runs feel less tiring, reduce<br />
your risk of injury, and ultimately<br />
be more enjoyable. Muscle People<br />
Physiotherapists specialise in assessing<br />
and improving running technique<br />
whether you are a competitive runner or<br />
just running for fun.<br />
start getting better now with these basic<br />
tips:<br />
POSTURE<br />
• Keep your head straight<br />
look straight ahead of you, about 30-40<br />
metres out in front and avoid looking<br />
down at your feet. looking down will<br />
create tension in your neck and shoulders.<br />
• shoulders back and down<br />
Your shoulders should be back and down<br />
not up by your ears. Keep them relaxed<br />
and avoid tensing them. don’t hunch<br />
over as this restricts breathing.<br />
• Keep your elbows at 90 degrees<br />
Your elbows should be bent at a 90 degree<br />
angle. Try to swing your arms forward<br />
and back, not across your body. This arm<br />
movement helps to propel you forward.<br />
Your hands should be relaxed, but don’t<br />
let them flop. Tight hands can cause<br />
tension all the way up to the back and<br />
shoulders.<br />
• solid core<br />
Focus on keeping your core (trunk) firm,<br />
though not rigid, and straight and your<br />

hips and shoulders level and relaxed.<br />
Keeping this position in your hips can<br />
help prevent low back and hip pain.<br />
FOOT STRIKE AND LEG POSITION<br />
• don’t strike the ground too heavily<br />
good running is light and quiet. You<br />
should land in the middle of your foot<br />
with a slightly bent knee. Whatever your<br />
weight, your feet should not slap loudly<br />
as they hit the ground. light steps are<br />
more efficient and cause less stress to the<br />
body and landing on the middle of your<br />
foot is the safest way to land for most<br />
recreational runners.<br />
That’s the basics but there’s always more<br />
we can do to help. Try these:<br />
RUNFIT – The technical edge<br />
Muscle People Physiotherapy &<br />
the YMCA gym have a running<br />
group in hagley Park – RunFit, led<br />
by a Physiotherapist and Canterbury<br />
competitive runner, and a Personal<br />
Trainer from the YMCA gym. RunFit<br />
focuses on running technique which<br />
is vital to improving speed, reducing<br />
injuries and making running more<br />
enjoyable for both regular runners<br />
and the beginner. RunFit is ideal for<br />
regular runners who are looking to<br />
challenge themselves, as well as the<br />
beginning runner who wants to start<br />
with good technique and the guidance of<br />
professionals.<br />

diane, from st Martins “i’ve had<br />

three calf injuries in the last 18 months<br />
and i wanted to make sure my running<br />
technique wasn’t contributing to that.<br />
over the course of the RunFit programme<br />
i improved my technique, got faster and<br />
i’m injury free. My training plan is on<br />
track for my first marathon in June.”<br />
Celia, works in sydenham, “RunFit is<br />
the perfect combination of running drills,<br />
core strength and running and i enjoyed<br />
the variety. The core strength training<br />
has helped with my tennis and posture<br />
and i’ve learnt a lot about running form<br />
to help with training in my solo sessions.<br />
The physiotherapist and personal<br />
trainer are fantastic and work really well<br />
together, their on-hand knowledge is<br />
invaluable. The small group environment<br />
is very encouraging and works for all<br />
abilities. i highly recommend RunFit - in<br />

Tuesday <strong>May</strong> <strong>10</strong> <strong>2016</strong> 19<br />
A solid choice for smart buyers<br />
2/57 Withells Rd, Avonhead<br />
Auction: <strong>May</strong> 19, <strong>2016</strong><br />
3 bedrooms | 2 bathrooms | 2 toilets | 1 dining room | 1 living room | 2 car-garage | Listing #: PI42934<br />
Invest your hard-earned money with<br />
confidence: this townhouse ticks all the<br />
boxes for great real estate. Start with the<br />
security of permanent materials – clad in<br />
timeless brick with aluminium joinery, this is a<br />
home that will retain its classic good looks with<br />
the minimum of maintenance.<br />
Add in good proportions that will suit many<br />
– three light, bright bedrooms (master with en<br />
suite bathroom) and a separate lounge adjacent<br />
to the open-plan kitchen and dining area will<br />
appeal to families, couples or investors. An<br />
aspect that ensures the home soaks up sunlight<br />
throughout the day and an easy flow from<br />
indoor living spaces to the sunny and secure<br />
garden will keep entertainers, children and pets<br />
equally happy. The convenience of a double<br />
internal-access garage plus additional off-street<br />
parking adds further practical appeal.<br />
A very sought-after location underpins the<br />
value of this investment: handy to schools and<br />
shops, family-friendly and standing on solid<br />
TC1 land. Presented in immaculate condition,<br />
this is a home you can move straight into or<br />
rent out from day one, but astute buyers will<br />
realise there is plenty of potential here for those<br />
wanting to enhance the property and further<br />
capitalise on their investment.<br />
The vendors have already purchased their<br />
next property so 2/57 Withells Road is very<br />
definitely for sale on or before auction day.<br />
Open Homes: Saturday and Sunday, 2pm<br />
to 2.30pm.<br />
See you at the Open Home or for a private<br />
viewing, contact Cameron Bailey of Harcourts<br />
