Panthers win on
and off the field
FRIENDLY: The Penrith Panthers paid South New Brighton
School a visit last Thursday in the lead-up to their game against
the Vodafone Warriors on Saturday, which the visitors won
30-18. Nearly 500 pupils and parents from South New Brighton
and Rawhiti School were given tickets to attend the match
by organiser Justin Wallace. Panthers players Dallin Watene-
Zelezniak (pictured), Trent Merrin, and Peta Hiku all joined
in, signing T-shirts, autographs and posing with the pupils for
photos.

Call to sort maintenance issues
FRASER WALKER-PEARCE
Levels of routine roadside
mowing and street cleaning in
the eastern suburbs is dropping
due to the level of earthquake
related road repairs in the area.
At a recent city council
committee meeting, staff said
residents were concerned that
routine maintenance was not
being done regularly.
But city council’s head of
transport Chris Gregory said the
number of Stronger Christchurch
Infrastructure Rebuild Team
work sites has affected “day-today”
maintenance.
There are more than 150
work sites currently underway,
according to the Transport for
Christchurch website.
The South Brighton Residents
Association said in a recent
report to the Burwood-Pegasus
Community Board that it felt
not enough was being done to
maintain the area.
Chairman Hugo Kristinsson
said perhaps if rates were
lowered for that time it would be
acceptable, but they were not.
“We can’t be used as a cast-out
for the rest of the city anymore.
There’s a sharp difference
between the east and the west
and it’s been like that for too
long,” he said.
Previously the Pegasus Post
reported that elected officials
were “furious” it has taken
the city council two years to
respond with data showing the
maintenance upkeep of New
Brighton.
A report was presented to the
Burwood-Pegasus Community
Board recently that showed
residents in the ward requested
the most help in the city from
the city council on a number of
issues.
The ward had the most

and property inspection animal
control complaints.
They also had the most requests
for street shrub maintenance and
double the number of complaints
for sewer maintenance than any
other ward, during the month of
March.
Mr Gregory said at the end of
the year, the city council will be
“solely responsible” for all road
maintenance once the SCIRT
programme has ended.

Camera to catch dumpers
Bid to stop
rubbish
dumping
in Bexley
FRASER WALKER-PEARCE
A camera that was previously
used to catch taggers has been
installed in Bexley to deter
anyone dumping rubbish in the
residential red zone.
The 5m tall, 2000kg security
camera was installed on the
corner of Wetlands Grove and
Morganwood St last Tuesday.
The camera is being hired by
Land Information New Zealand,
which aims to stop the amount
of rubbish being dumped in the
residential red zone.
An LINZ spokesman said multiple
rubbish dumpings had cost
more than $3000 to dispose of.
“There has been 17 events of
domestic rubbish dumping in
Bexley on Crown-owned land
since December 1, costing LINZ
$3135.67 for collection and
disposal,” he said.
Last year Pegasus Post reported
that a similar camera was

cenotaph after it
was tagged, along
with the library.
This time the
camera was
installed to deter dumpers, and
along with filming any motion
in the area, it can capture vehicle
number plates, even in pitch
black conditions.
ATF fencing contractors
regional manager Glen Taylor
(left) said there has been a
“massive spike” in dumping in
the Bexley area recently, and
the camera will act as a visual
deterrent.
“We’ve been in there testing it
at night, and we’ve found that it
can read number plates in pitch
black, so basically I’d say you
cannot hide from it,” he said.
The LINZ spokesman said
the camera will remain in the
red zone until the problem has
improved.
“(It costs) $35 a day. The
camera’s on trial and will remain
where it is until we see an improvement,”
he said.
Mr Taylor said if there’s
enough evidence to find
out whose rubbish has been
dumped, the city council will
“return” it to the owners.
“If there are bank statements,
mail, anything like that in there,
and they find it, they will return
it. I’ve seen it before,” he said.
HAVE YOUR SAY: Where do you
think the camera should be
placed? Where are the target
areas for dumpers? Email fraser.

What’s in a name?
FRASER WALKER-PEARCE
Have you ever wondered why
Waitikiri Golf Club is spelled
differently to Waitakiri Primary
School?
Waitikiri, the subdivision and
golf club, is spelled with an ‘I’,
but Waitakiri, the school, has an
‘A’. It’s only 2.7km from one to
the other. So why are they different?
The answer goes back to 1860
when the first European, John
McLean, moved onto the now
Waitikiri land, which was used
for farming at the time.
A local history fact file on Bottle
Lake and Waitikiri: the early CONFUSION: Waitakiri Primary School opened this year, but is spelt

QE II Park land use
under question
FRASER WALKER-PEARCE
A surviving member of the
New Brighton Trotting Club
has signed an affidavit saying
that QE II Park was to be set
aside “for recreational use
only.”
Norma Robinson,
88, is “adamant” that
an 11.5ha block of
land in QE II Park
was never intended
to be used for educational
purposes,
and was to be used
by “the people of
Christchurch.”
Mrs Robinson
wrote an affidavit last week,
stating that the condition of the
land sale to the city council in
1963 was that the land was to
be set aside as a park for the
people to use recreationally.
Christchurch Concerned Citizens
Group chairman Garry
House is leading the charge
against the city council.
“We found a committee
member from the trotting club,
we think she’s the last surviving
member. She has taken the
steps of signing an affidavit,
which is a legal document that
PEGASUS POST
can be used in court. It’s very
seriously dealt with if found to
be wrong, and she’s thought of
that,” he said.
Mr House (left) said the
group had not decided whether
they would be taking
the city council to
court over the land
sale, but said he
would “rather negotiate
and see where it
goes.”
He said the group
will meet on Sunday
to discuss their options,
which include
“considering taking
legal action” if the council
didn’t negotiate with them.
Mr House said the group
would be pushing for Christchurch
to get a fair deal.
“We always try and negotiate
for the best deal for the citizens
on the east, and indeed for
Christchurch,” he said.
A city council spokeswoman
said the affidavit will be considered
by the hearings panel
and the city council when they
consider whether to proceed
with the proposed disposal of
the land, or not.

Property prices rise
FRASER WALKER-PEARCE
Newly-released statistics have
shown property sale prices in
the eastern suburbs are on the
rise.
Statistics released by Core-
Logic, a property information,
analytics and services provider,
show most properties in the east
are selling for, on average, 3.7
per cent more than they were last
year.
CoreLogic senior research
analyst Nick Goodall said it’s
good news for homeowners in
the east.
“Four of the top five suburbs
according to annual growth are
at the more affordable end of the
value range. All are below the
$400,000 median value, and all
are situated in the east,” he said.
The top five suburbs for annual
growth are Wainoni, New
Brighton, Aranui, Cracroft and
South New Brighton.
Mr Goodall said the four eastern
suburbs have been “dominated
by investors”, and the east has
been a “big growing point since
the earthquakes.”
Burwood-Pegasus Community
Board member Tim Baker said
he hopes the sale prices stay the
same for a long time, but says
it’s unlikely with all the new
buildings going up in the area.
“We’ve got

“I think that’s because of the

drills, hammers and nails under the guidance of caretaker Woody.
CRAZY ABOUT BOOKS: Queenspark School went book mad last
week, having all sorts of activities to celebrate. Book reviewer Bob
Docherty and author Gavin Bishop visited and spoke to year 5 to
8 pupils. Pupils brought in books and swapped them for others.
Teachers swapped rooms and read to different classes, and lots of
competitions and activities went on all week. On Thursday, pupils
went to school dressed as their favourite book character.
BIG EXPECTATIONS:
Avonside Girls’ High
Schools one of three
eastern schools to
have entered teams
in this year’s Stage
Challenge. Avonside
is joined by Marian
College and South
New Brighton School.
They are three of 27
Christchurch schools
entering this year’s
competition, to
be held tonight and tomorrow at
Horncastle Arena. Students work together to create a performance portraying social or political messages,
community concepts and fantasy, which lasts up to 8min each. These themes reflect issues concerning the
students and aim to have the audience leave the event thinking critically. Avonside’s theme is ‘technology
takes over’, Marian’s performance is centred around ‘everyone is unique in their own way’, and South New
Brighton will portray ‘disconnect to reconnect’.
WINNING
PLAN: Rawhiti
School won the
recent Keep New
Zealand Beautiful
wall worthy
competition. KNZB
asked schools to
submit what makes
their patch unique
and illustrate how
they would tell
their story through
a painted mural.
Rawhiti’s ‘rising
above’ concept
mural won, now
they have until
the end of term
3 to design and
paint the mural
somewhere around
the school. They
received Resene paint vouchers, a sports camera, drop cloths, stickers and treats to get their mural started.
On completion of the mural, they will also receive an iPad mini.

EQC UPDATE KEEPING YOU INFORMED | MAY 2016
EQC’s approach to
its repair obligations
Land settlements update
Keith Land, EQC Head of Canterbury Land Settlement
EQC is now working on the remaining eleven percent of
green zone properties and red zone properties (not owned
by the Crown), which still need their land claims resolved.
“From a total of 73,000 such properties which had land claims,
there are now around 8,000 where the land claims still need to
be settled by EQC,” says EQC Head of Canterbury Land
Settlement, Keith Land.
This year EQC is aiming to complete these remaining land
damage settlements, with the majority of work focusing on
claims for Increased Liquefaction Vulnerability (ILV) and
Increased Flooding Vulnerability (IFV) land damage.
As of early May, 60 percent of potential Increased Flooding
Vulnerability (IFV) customers (9,600) have had their IFV claims
resolved. This also includes any outstanding visible land
damage settlements these customers may have.
Together with resolving remaining IFV claims, the priority now
is on settlements for the around 4,400 ILV customers. Some
properties have both ILV and IFV land damage.
“We’re on track to start making the first payments to ILV
customers from late June,” says Mr Land.
Settlements for ILV land damage will be made by cash payment,
in line with how IFV and other types of land damage from the
2010-2011 Canterbury earthquakes have been settled to date.
ILV settlements will be based on one of two approaches: repair
cost, or reduction in market value of the property due to ILV land
damage – also called Diminution of Value (DOV). Information on
ILV, and details of these settlement approaches, including
answers to a number of questions, can be found on the EQC
website at www.eqc.govt.nz/ILV
ILV land damage settlements on the basis of DOV
EQC expects that most ILV properties will be settled solely on the
basis of DOV. This is because, where the house has remained in
place after the earthquakes (as many have), there will not
generally be repair methods available to repair ILV damage on the
property. The first payments made in late June will be to those
customers with ILV land damage whose settlements are based on
DOV. “The ILV DOV approach and settlement amounts will be
similar to how we’ve been handling IFV claims,” says Mr Land.
Claim
deadline
looming
Christchurch residents whose
homes suffered damage
in the 29 February 2016
earthquake still have time
to lodge a claim with EQC.
The deadline for lodging
a claim is 30 May 2016.
This deadline does not stop
you from lodging a new claim
with EQC if your dwelling
incurs new damage as part
of recent or future quakes.
EQC encourages anyone
whose home suffered
damage in this event to make
a claim even if the damage
appears minor.
“We’ve been working closely with customer advocates groups to
make sure the settlement communications our customers receive
is clear and helps them understand our decision.”
ILV land damage settlements
on the basis of repair cost
Work is underway to determine the settlements for ILV
customers whose payments can be based on repair cost.
“We are planning to start contacting customers in early June
who, based on the information we have to date, have the
opportunity to complete a ground repair on their property to
address the ILV land damage,” says Mr Land. Before the repair
cost settlements can be made, EQC will be working closely with
these customers to understand their plans for rebuilding on the
site and whether the plans include any ground repair.
“We will have a dedicated team case managing these customers
to ensure EQC has a good understanding of their situation and
they are kept up-to-date with their claim’s status,” says Mr Land.
Land assessments and settlements in general
“We have identified different types of land damage – visible land
damage, IFV and ILV. For each type of land damage, we use a
range of assessment processes that allow the appropriate
settlement for each customer and are consistent with the
legislation in place.
“Each property is different and is assessed on a case-by-case
basis, so one customer’s settlement is not indicative of
another’s,” says Mr Land.
For more information on the approach to land claims and their
settlement, visit www.eqc.govt.nz/land.
“We also have an open and robust review process in place for
those customers who want us to review our decisions on
whether their insured land has damage and/or the settlement
amount paid,” says Mr Land.
Check out www.eqc.govt.nz/landreview for more information
on land settlement review.
Land settlements for red zone properties
EQC is assessing all residential land claims across Canterbury
in a consistent way – whether they are green zone properties or
red zone properties.
The Government’s decisions related to the red zone are separate
from EQC’s decisions related to the assessment and settlement
of land damage claims.
As agreed with CERA and now Land Information New Zealand
(LINZ), EQC’s priority continues to be to resolve land damage
claims for properties in the green zone and those in the red
zone, whose owners did not accept a Crown offer.
“However, we continue to work with LINZ, which has taken over
management of the around 7,000 Crown owned red zone
properties. We expect to agree a settlement approach with LINZ
in the second half of 2016, applying the same policies EQC has
used to settle green zone claims,” says Mr Land.
EQC has so far received just
over 10,500 building, contents
and land claims since the first
quake on Valentine’s Day.
People can lodge claims
with EQC online at www.eqc.
govt.nz/claims via email on
info@eqc.govt.nz or by calling
0800 DAMAGE (0800 326 243).
The EQC call centre is open
7am to 9pm Monday to Friday
and 8am to 6pm on Saturdays.
There has been some discussion about how the Earthquake
Commission meets its obligations under the Earthquake Commission
Act (EQC Act) following the release of the Joint Statement agreed
with a group of Canterbury homeowners, the EQC Action Group.
Information on what the joint statement means for customers
and how customers can request a review of their claim can be found
at www.eqc.govt.nz
EQC acknowledges that every homeowner affected by earthquake damage
faces a set of circumstances specific to their property and that a different repair
strategy is likely to be applied in each case. That said, EQC uses some general
principles when making its decisions. EQC insures an earthquake-damaged
house for its replacement value up to a certain cap, usually $115,000 including
GST, according to the EQC Act. Given there has been some confusion about
what “replacement value” means, it’s worth having a close look at the
definition in the EQC Act, which includes three main elements:
1. the costs which would be reasonably incurred
2. in reinstating the building to a condition substantially the same as but not
better or more extensive than its condition when new
3. modified as necessary to comply with any applicable laws.
Some of the commentary following the Joint Statement focused on the
concept of “when new”, which refers to when the house was new. While
“when new” is one element, EQC needs to take into account each of the
three main elements, when meeting its obligations under the Act. For
instance, the concept of when new needs to be seen in light of complying
with any applicable laws.
How ‘replacement value’ may apply in practice
Example 1
Following an earthquake, a brick chimney falls through the corrugated iron
roof of a 1900s-era villa.
The falling chimney smashes through the ceiling, shattering a ceramic light
fitting that was already badly deteriorated prior to the earthquake.
To repair the roof, the corrugated iron in the area where the chimney fell
would be replaced with new corrugated iron. If corrugated iron of the same
type as the damaged iron is not available because it is no longer
manufactured, the new corrugated iron would be a modern product, which
matches as closely as possible the profile of the damaged corrugated iron.
In some situations, the new corrugated iron may be coloured steel or
the corrugated iron may need to be repainted to match the colour of the
existing roof.
EQC may also need to reinstate or replace non-damaged parts of the roof
that need to be removed in order to repair the earthquake damage, such as
the iron ridging on the roof peak.
The repair work to the roof would be carried out to ensure the work meets
applicable laws such as the performance standards in the Building Code.
The light fitting would be replaced. If the existing wiring couldn’t be safely
reconnected to the light fitting then an Electrical Safety Inspection would be
required. The wiring would need replacing to a point where the electrician
determines it can safely be reconnected, and to meet any legal requirements
for that work.
Example 2
An earthquake damages the so-called ‘rubble foundations’ a home is built
on. If the foundation can be repaired so that the foundation is in a condition
substantially the same as when it was new and the repair work complies with
applicable laws, the foundation repair will meet the “replacement value”
standard. In other cases, to meet the standard of applicable laws, part or
all of the foundation may need to be replaced. EQC considers each repair
strategy based on the facts specific to each home. Individual foundation
repairs are dependent on the nature of the foundation, the type of
earthquake damage suffered and the make-up of the concrete.
Customers can request a review
If any customer believes EQC has missed earthquake damage to their home,
disagrees with the repair strategy EQC has proposed, or believes their
settlement amount is not correct, they can use EQC’s standard processes to
request a review of their individual claim on 0800 DAMAGE (0800 326 243)
or email info@eqc.govt.nz

HEALTH & BEAUTY
Reclaim your
identity
When it comes to dentures, Christchurch people
have access to world-leading techniques and oral
aesthetics right on their doorstep.
At his Montreal street studio Lovebite,
internationally renowned dental
technician Richard Greenlees creates
beautiful bespoke dentures with small
nuances in the fabrication, colour and
shape, and even slight imperfections to
create a uniquely individual smile.
There is no need for dentures to look
false. Richard takes a great deal of
satisfaction in making bespoke dentures
that look 100 per cent real and natural,
personally guiding his patients through
the transformation process to craft a
smile that reflects their individuality and
personality, and recreates their natural
pre-denture smile.
Not only do Lovebite teeth look
real, the whole structure and shape of
the patient’s face is transformed with
Richard’s top-of-the-line dentures,
something he calls his signature ‘denture
lift’.
“With appropriate facial support, the
facial tissues are brought back into the
correct position, the lips are reformed,
and beauty is restored,” he says.
it is the interior architecture of a
Lovebite denture that helps to create a
more youthful appearance by recovering
the face and skeletal shape that can be
lost after years of wearing dentures.
As the smile is transformed, so are the
patient’s confidence, and the way they
feel about themselves.
Richard’s vast experience includes
15 years of running his own clinic in
the prestigious harley st, London,
where he treated people from all walks
of life, from barrow boys to the rich
and famous, politicians, actors and
musicians.
his techniques are recognised as
world-leading among his international
peers, and he is regularly asked to
lecture and run courses worldwide.
Miles Cone (DMD, Ms, FACP, CDt),
a prosthodontist from Oregon, UsA,
said in November 2015: “Richard
Greenlees’ craftsmanship is as stunning
as it is unique. There is liberation in
the calculated imperfection, indeed an
asperity that reflects a purely human
element.”
in addition to dentures, Richard also
carries out crown and bridge, veneer
and implant work, in conjunction
with like-minded dental surgeons who
complement his creative and aesthetic
work.
“teeth are as different as fingerprints
and vary greatly depending on a person’s
age, sex and race. Dentures from
Lovebite reflect this, and are as unique
and individual as the people they are
made for,” says Richard.
There is nothing more satisfying for
Richard than to see his patients leave
the Lovebite studio with their selfconfidence
and identity restored, as well
as their smile.
Confidence and beauty is restored with a new
denture by Lovebite.
As the smile is transformed, so are the
patient’s confidence, and the way they
feel about themselves.

Community initiative vital
Burwood-Pegasus
Community Board
member Stan Tawa talks
about the importance of
a community’s initiative.
Kia ora koutou.
Community initiative
is basically the ability of a
community to improve the
quality of life for everyone
in the community.
It seems like a straight
forward idea, but how do
we take it from an idea to
reality?
Well we need to decide
on our needs and priorities,
then with the necessary
skills, resources and experience,
we can work together to achieve
the desired outcome.
You see if you want to have things
that you have never had before, you
must be prepared to do things you have
never done before to achieve them.
One such proposed initiative is the
North Beach to New Brighton Promenade.
This project, spearheaded by
Community Connection
Nga Ngaru Trust has the
potential to energise our
local community and to
strengthen the destination

value of New Brighton
itself.
The ability that this
project has to be able to
draw multitudes city-wide
and beyond cannot be
overstated.

Readers respond to last week’s Pegasus
Post article Godwit plan grounded.
Carl and Michele Craw: Talking
about red tape nonsense and Kafkaian
madness.
Not to mention a sneaking suspicion
that the powers-that-be are not willing to
help South New Brighton. Nobody owns
it? Then permission should be granted to
beautify it.
No one better than the city council
knows whose land this is exactly, and
no one better than the city council can
work the process that would enable
this wonderful project to go ahead.
Alternatively, if it is not owned by anyone
in particular, then let the South Brighton
Residents’ Association claim it. Let’s
have a petition of residents to the city
council to allow the godwits to welcome
residents and visitors alike when they
come over the bridge.
If it is fluvial progression or erosion
that the city council is worried about,
why not explain clearly how this might
endanger the proposed artwork, and in
the process suggest another site, instead
of confusing everybody with who might
or might not own this site.
Don Parish: My idea of a great spot for
the godwit sculptures would be at the end
of the Southshore spit. I have seen many
resting down there when the tide is in.
Also it can be seen from the Sumner side,
and may make people more aware of
these great birds. It also may make people
go for a walk down there to check it out,
two fold, exercise and education.
Karen Wilson: These are beautiful
and I love the position near the bridge on
Bridge St. Where else should they go but
in no man’s land? They’re wild and free.
Laurence Fairley: For godwits’ sake.
New Brighton and eastern residents are
always shafted by the city council. Put
the damn sculptures up close to where
they are, not where they put the
‘welcome’ sign which could be and is
missed by all visitors. If the city council
wants to play hardball, let them. A 2hr
working bee and they would be in and
cemented for eternity. Our godwits
haven’t given up on the eastern blocks in
spite of the earthquakes, liquefaction and
poor roads.
A reader responds to Pegasus Post
article on the New Brighton fireworks
display moving away for at least two
years while repairs are made to the pier.
Graeme Scott: I was reading in your
paper on comments about the New
Brighton fireworks. Has no one thought
of the red zone between Burwood Park
and the river as a temporary location for
the New Brighton fireworks? The area
has been made into a lovely park area
ideal for picnics with plenty of room for
temporary food stalls, entertainments and
toilets.
There is parking for thousands of cars
on the north side of the road with several
options for access to the area. It is not too
far from New Brighton and it is on New
Brighton Rd so the New Brighton brand
would not be lost.
A performing arts centre, sports
facilities, gymnasium, a cutting-edge
library and technology suites are just
some of the facilities that will be built
into the new Avonside girls’ and
Shirley Boys’ High Schools.
The two schools will be open
alongside each other on a new campus
in time for the beginning of the 2019
school year. The ministry of education
is spending at least $80-million on the
campus.
Qe2 park has been named as the
preferred site for the campus, where
it could be built alongside the eastern
Sport and recreation Centre that will
have numerous swimming pools and
water facilities.
This will be the first time in new
Zealand’s history that two single sex
schools have co-located. Avonside
girls’ principal Sue Hume says the new
campus will offer the best of both the
single-sex and co-educational worlds.
“Students will spend most of their day
in a single-sex environment but there
will be times when they can interact
with students from the other school.
for example, we’ll have a shared library,
a combined café and an extensive
bus network that students from both
schools willl use. This enables our
students valuable social development,”
says Sue Hume.
“This will a place the community can
be proud of with facilities that everyone
will be able to use. We are looking
forward to seeing the proposal become
reality.”

Shirley Boys High School
Connecting with students
SHirley BoyS’ High School encourages students to strive for personal
excellence. guided by the commonly known expression BTB (Better than
Before), Shirley boys develop attitudes and skills for lifelong learning and
personal growth in a positive, supportive environment. The culture and ethos
of the ‘Shirley man’ focuses on connections with students’ roots, so they are
socially and emotionally competent, resilient and optimistic about the future.
learning, both inside and outside the classroom, is specifically tailored to
suit boys needs ensuring higher engagement, resulting in greater success and
higher achievement levels. Through enrichment and acceleration classes across
all curriculum levels and subjects, Shirley Boys’ High performance Centre
offers multiple learning pathways – nCeA, igSCe and extension courses
through the University of Canterbury.
programmes focus on inquiry
learning, high thinking skills and
global perspectives.
Academic scholarships are awarded
annually to the top performing student
at each year level and an entrance
Scholarship is awarded on the basis of
an examination for year 8 students.
in January 2019, the new Shirley
Boys’ will open alongside Avonside
girls’ on the former Qeii park site.
This will be the first time two single
sex schools have co-located in new Zealand and both schools are looking
forward to the move. “There will be one campus, but there will be two separate
schools each retaining its own culture, curriculum and uniform”
says John laurenson.
Riccarton High School Peerswick Scholarship
every yeAr riccarton High School awards
two peerswick Scholarships to year 8 students
who show strengths in the academic, sporting,
cultural and service fields.
The term ‘peerswick’ is an Upper riccarton
name which has been associated with the
school since 1959 when the school magazine
was named peerswick. in the latter part of
the 19 th century, a local horse stud was called
peerswick after a famous racehorse at the
stud called The peer and the area was called
peerswick for many years.
The 2012 winners were Dean Holdaway
and rachel Wu. now in year 13, the two have
made their mark in the school just as have all
the Scholarship winners.
Winning the $1,000 peerswick Scholarship
was an achievement they were proud of as
well as providing a useful investment for
the future.
At school they gained entrance to the top
class, felt confident that they could achieve
and seeing their names on the honours board
in the hall has been a constant reminder of
their potential.
Dean came to riccarton from Halswell
School, while rachel came from Westburn
School.
Both students have a fine pedigree in music.
They are members of the new Zealand
Secondary Schools Symphony orchestra
where they play the clarinet. They have both
gained grade 8 in clarinet.
rachel was a member of the chamber group
‘papricca’ which won the people’s Choice in
the national Chamber music competition,
a fine achievement. She also sings in the
auditioned choir, ‘Stella Cantare’. Dean
plays in the Concert Band and the Jazz Band
and last year had the lead role in the school
production of ‘Bugsy malone’.
Both rachel and Dean have achieved
excellence in nCeA in both year 11 and
year 12. rachel gained 2 nd place in the Brain
Bee competition as a year 11 and has gained
distinction in several maths and science
competitions.
Dean is planning to study electrical
engineering at Canterbury, while rachel will
study medicine at otago.
As year 13s they are very involved
in student activities, organising events,
mentoring year 9s at the beginning of the year
and being role models through the school.
They feel well prepared for this task as they
have been encouraged to be leaders and show
responsibility right from
year 9.
‘The peerswick Scholarship was not only
wonderful to win, it also gave us a great
start as we began our time at riccarton. We
have had great years here and this year is no
different,’ said Dean.

Clean lint filters in
your clothes dryer
CONTINUING EDUCATION
PEGASUS POST
Ara extends vocational
training across Canterbury
BY MARK THOMAS – FIRE RISK
MANAGEMENT OFFICER
Last Saturday a fire reported in a clothes
dryer in a commercial building in St
Asaph St was dealt with by the two city
crews attending using breathing apparatus
and fire extinguishers.
It’s another timely reminder that colder
conditions and the need for drying washing
inside must hit us soon considering
we’re just a couple of weeks short of officially
being in winter.
Home tumble dryers are found everywhere
and will be utilised more and more
as winter bites. They are generally fairly
safe but we do occasionally get called out
when they ignite.
The best prevention for this happening
is to clean the lint filter every time before
turning the machine on and to make sure
someone is home while it’s operating.
Then if all does go wrong the result
should be no worse than that in St Asaph
St. It does tend to ruin your day when
contacted at work to be told your house
has burned down.
Two good examples last weekend of
firefighters going the extra mile included
the retrieval of a model plane from a tree
at QE II and the assistance given to an

aren’t maintained.
elderly lady in South New Brighton.
This woman had slipped and crashed
through a glass door at her home. She
was kept in hospital overnight and then
released, only to come home to the still
broken door.
Wainoni’s crew spent an hour and a half
contacting insurance and repair people.
They stayed available for further calls but
saved some real anguish by taking charge.
That’s good work.
ArA InstItute of Canterbury is a
vibrant and progressive tertiary option for
a fast-changing world.
It was created earlier this year, when
CPIt and Aoraki Polytechnic merged,
bringing together two well-established
organisations and over 200 years of
collective experience and success.
Chief executive Kay Giles says Ara
brings together the best knowledge,
expertise and the greatest passion for
teaching, to deliver a superior learning
experience and the very best outcomes for
graduates, employers and new Zealand
“Ara is all about equipping graduates
with real-world industry-relevant
knowledge and hands-on experience to
help them get the career they want, then
excel in it.”
At teaching centres spanning the region
from Kaikoura to Oamaru, Ara provides
tailored programmes and skills training
designed to lead to rewarding careers.
“Whatever your dreams and goals,
every prospective student will find an
opportunity and path of learning at Ara –
from Level 1 basic numeracy and literacy
to Level 9 Masters qualifications,” Giles
says.
“What’s more, Ara provides a greater
number of programmes, more online
or blended delivery, more flexible
part time options, workplace training,
apprenticeships, flipped classrooms and
“Ara is all about equipping
graduates with real-world
industry-relevant knowledge.”
group work. This includes innovative
collaborations with other educational
providers and industry.”
Ara is the Maori word for path or
journey and represents the learning
process and the many pathways to success.
Giles says Ara stays relevant by using
learning models that are constantly
adaptive, flexible and responsive to the
industry and regional needs. “Whatever
career you choose, and wherever it may
take you, as an Ara graduate you can be
sure that your knowledge and skills will
always be relevant and you’ll be ready
for the challenges and opportunities our
changing world presents.”
Volunteers wanted for
dementia sufferers
Alzheimers Canterbury is looking for
recruits to join its volunteering service
by becoming a companion, activities
assistant, or driver for people with
dementia.
A companion visits an Alzheimers
Canterbury client on a weekly or fortnightly
basis. They may go for a walk,
watch a movie or have a cup of tea and
a chat.
Alzheimers Canterbury volunteer
co-ordinator Monique Schoneveld
said they are trying to help dementia
sufferers have “fun and meaningful”
lives.
“We want clients in our community
to live well with dementia, to have fun
and meaningful lives. Volunteers can
play a huge role in this often being the
highlight of their day,” she said.
Activity assistants help with a
community activities programme run
through Alzheimers Canterbury, and
give clients opportunities to enjoy the
things they used to in a normalised,
safe and supported setting.
Activities include swimming, community
gardening, art appreciation,
baking for Ronald McDonald House,
and others.
Another way to make a client’s day is
as a personal driver. Many clients have
lost their driver’s license so transport
can be an everyday hurdle.
To make sure a volunteer is
compatible with a client, there is
a matching service run through
Alzheimers Canterbury, which ensures
a match.
To find out more about how to
become a volunteer, companion,
activities assistant, or driver for a
client, email monique@alzcanty.

spaces for midyear 2016 are filling fast
and demand for affordable trades training
is high.
to find out more, discuss options or tour
the facilities, call 0800 tO stuDY (0800
867 883), go to www.sit.ac.nz or visit the
campus at 60 Waterloo road hornby.
Not all first aid certificates
are created equal
While first aid courses must
achieve prescribed new
Zealand Qualification
Authority (nZQA) standards
to be certified, not all training providers deliver
the same course. Providers offering shortened
courses or courses not meeting nZQA training
requirements are now in the spotlight.
nZQA and the Department of Labour have
published a factsheet to outline requirements
for first aid training based on currently
registered nZQA unit standards. Below are a
summary of what we think you should know.
Course differences
training providers can market their courses
under a wide range of names. employers
should be cautious in thinking that a one-day
workplace first aid course will meet their needs
in industries such as construction, engineering,
forestry and industrial. More advanced
learning is important to meet the proper
workplace assessments and meet health and
safety obligations.
If there are risks of falling, or medium to high
injury, then take careful look in the shortened
courses as these subjects may not be covered.
It is the responsibility of the employer to ensure
that employees attend courses appropriate to
their industry risks.
Unit standard-based first aid training
The minimum duration of first aid training
and assessment will be for training based on:
• unit standards 6400, 6401
(or 26552) and 6402 (or 26551),
a minimum of 12 hours’ training and assessment
• unit standards 6401 (or 26551) and 6402 (or
26552), a minimum of eight hours’ training
and assessment
• For refresher training where the learner’s
certificate is no older than two years and three
months from date of issue, a minimum of six
hours’ training and assessment
First aid training must cover the outcomes
of the nZQA first aid unit standards being
assessed and any additional modules identified
by the employer through the workplace risk
assessment process as outlined in Department
of Labour guidelines. Only first aid training
providers accredited by nZQA can award the
credits and issue a first aid certificate.
nZQA conduct regular external evaluative
reviews on all training providers. new Zealand
red Cross is proud to hold a double highly
Confident accreditation in both educational
Performance and Capability in self-Assessment.
This means that nZ red Cross is a Category
One training provider.
First aid refresher training
refresher training is required every
two years to maintain the certificates.
The requirement allows for a
three-month period of grace, so the cut off
period is two years and three months, which
should allow sufficient time to enrol onto a
suitable course.
If a certificate is not renewed for more
than three calendar months from the second
anniversary date of issue, it will be necessary for
the certificate holder to complete full first aid
training to maintain currency.
For the purposes of workplace first aid
emergency management, employers will need
to ensure that their first aid personnel maintain
competency at all times.
