Failed water park won’t be
re-election issue – East
• By Fraser Walker-Pearce
DAVID EAST and Tim Sintes
are adamant the failure of the
much vaunted New Brighton
Water Park to get of the ground
won’t affect their chance of
getting re-elected in October’s
local body elections.
The two well-known local
body politicians were main drivers
behind the $30 million water
park.
But their plans were sunk
when the city council scuppered
the plan.
Cr East (left) is
standing again for
the city council in the
new Coastal Ward,
and Mr Sintes will try
to be voted back in on
the Burwood-Coastal
Community Board.
Cr East said it wasn’t through
lack of trying that the planned
water park was aborted.
“Ultimately what got in the
road was the assessment that
the city council did, the terms
of reference didn’t allow it to
proceed,” he said.
Cr East said he was confident
of being re-elected, in spite of
recent news he is holding onto
his director fee – worth about
$45,000 – for running Transwaste
Canterbury Ltd.
“I don’t think [it will affect
the campaign]. The directors’

fee issue is something I’m not
really going to get too involved
in at this stage. There are a whole
lot of complexities and issues
involved in that, and a whole
host of things that need to be
resolved.
“You’re never supremely
confident, I won’t be taking this
election lightly. I believe I have
a reasonable measure of support
and I’ll be campaigning on a
number of issues and looking to
back that up with my track record
to underpin the campaign,”
Cr East said.
He said key focuses of his campaign
would be the hot salt water
pool plan going ahead, finishing
the infrastructure and roading
programme, and the coastal
promenade.
Mr Sintes (left) said the water
park was the most disappointing
part of his term on the board.
The idea was pitched on “the
back of us being told that QE II
(Park) could never be built on
again”.
He and Cr East would not have
brought the idea up “if we had
known the QE II site could have
been built on again”.
“I’d like to think I have a
similar support group as I did in
2013. I wasn’t elected just for the
water park . . . I’ll be looking for
better deals for the east – more
action, less talk,” Mr Sintes said.
RE-ELECTION: David East said his failed bid to get a water park for New Brighton won’t affect his
chances of retaining his seat around the city council table.

Grafitti rates rocket
• By Fraser Walker-Pearce
COMPLAINTS OF graffiti and
tagging from eastern suburbs
residents have almost doubled
in the past three months.
A report requested by the
Burwood-Pegasus Community
Board showed that there were
77 customer service requests to
the city council regarding graffiti
in March.
Last week, however, a more
up-to-date report showed the
number had risen to 127 for the
month of April.
The Pegasus Post has received
new information that in May,
the number had risen again to
147 – almost double the number
of requests made in March.
City councillor Glenn Livingstone
said the data may not
yet be reliable enough to make
judgement on.
“At the board meeting, we
talked about the CSRs (customer
service requests). With stats
like this you have to be careful
in making judgement calls, because
this is only a small group.
“We have asked for more
specific data . . . across the city
the incidents in our ward are
lower than some other wards,”
he said.
Community board member
Linda Stewart said rising graffiti
complaints in the eastern
suburbs was concerning.
“All we can do at this stage is
ask for more information, and
ask staff to investigate options
that we can take,” she said.
More than 90 reports to the
city council were of general
graffiti, with the rest being
made up of mainly public
tagging and building-related
vandalism.
The report shown to the
Pegasus Post states that the
most targeted areas for graffiti
in May were city council parks
and waterways, and community
buildings such as schools.
TAGGED: The New Brighton
war memorial cenotaph
(above) was tagged last year,
while Porritt Park (below) was
vandalised after it closed
due to earthquake damage.

PULLED PLANTS: The Bridge St roundabout was vandalised,
and plants were uprooted and “thrown around” last week.
Garden targeted
for destruction
• By Fraser Walker-Pearce
AN EASTERN suburbs resident’s
hard work was ruined overnight
after vandals destroyed a public
flower garden.
South New Brighton resident
Julie Huddy has slowly turned
the Bridge St roundabout into
a public garden space, but was
angry to find that her hard work
had been undone by vandals.
The roundabout, which was
decorated with colourful flowers,
was vandalised overnight last
week, with plants and flowers
up-rooted and thrown or kicked
around.
Mrs Huddy took to the People’s
Independent Republic of New
Brighton Facebook page to vent
her frustration.
“Do you realise this work has
not been done by the council?
These plants are bought out of
our own pockets,” she said.
She would replace the plants
that had been “ripped out and
(thrown) around”.
But, only hours after the garden
was decimated, Mrs Huddy
made a trip to the local Bunnings
Warehouse, and returned to
re-plant all of the uprooted flowers.

Future of QE II Empty houses
Burwood-
Pegasus
Community
Board
member
Linda Stewart
talks about
proposed
plans for QE
II and the city council’s
role in deciding what
will become of the
recreational area.
At the mid-June city
council meeting, the community
hopes that the city
council will support the three
councillor-led hearing panel’s
recommendation to return
the land sale proceeds back
into recreational purposes at
QE II.
The Ministry of Education
plans to relocate Avonside
Girls’ and Shirley Boys’ High
Schools on QE II land.
The location of QE II,
which is sited in the centre
of our ward, has important
elements. It is connected to
express-use roads, public
transport routes and surrounded
by many residential
communities that have a
high interest in recreational
use being the focus of future
development.
The hearing panel also
recommended that the land
leased to Travis Medical
Centre be retained in lease
with the city council, retaining
memorial trees where
possible and retaining the
recreational exercise circuit.
Judging by the focus of submissions,
the hearing panel
was listening.
This is the first significant
win for the east since the
earthquakes provided an opportunity
to steal our prized
QE II Recreation Centre.
The hearing panel recommendation
shows the submission
process was worthwhile.
A council meeting in
mid-June will consider the
councillor-led hearing panel’s
recommendation, and also be
mindful that the Burwood-
Pegasus Community Board’s
submission to the Long Term
Plan seeks future funds be
earmarked to extend the pool
space it will need once the
two high schools are operating.
Another submission
advocates for a recreational
park similar to Spencer Park,
which will have communitywide
appeal.
The high-level proposal by
the mayor and chief executive
for a land swap deal to buy
undisclosed decommissioned
school properties is a threat
to the community’s wishes
to return the funds back into
QE II.
It’s also outside the terms
of reference for the land
sale. The heart of the east is
returning in a different but
positive form.
But a community-led
initiative needs to form a
guardianship role to consider
future use.
We need to protect and
advocate for appropriate development,
or run the risk of
seeing large portions of this
land disappear into private
use without consultation.
target of arson
• By Mark Thomas – Fire Risk
Management Officer
WE’VE LOST a lot of old buildings
in the past five years. Most of them
from earthquake damage.
However, we’ve also seen a
number of earthquake-damaged
properties empty, shored up and
supposedly secure, waiting to be
repaired, which have been the
target of arsonists.
There was another one this week
at the Risingholme Community
Centre in Opawa.
I apologise to the good people
of that area, but I wasn’t aware it
existed.
The building may or may not be
saveable now. I suspect it will not
be.
But there will be another empty
section where the history of our
city once stood. Kind of sad really
isn’t it?
The past week has seen a number
of calls from the Linwood and
Bromley areas reporting strong
smells of gas.
It turns out a trucking firm has
been depositing soil in their yard.
Each time it’s turned over, or
added to, a smell permeates around
the east. It’s not dangerous, just
unpleasant.
In the equally unusual category
was the call out of the troops to
a liquid seeping from a closed
container in Middleton last Friday.
Investigations revealed the
container had been loaded in the
heavy rain of that week.
Was it rain water seeping out
a number of days later? Well,
it’s not high in the list of hazardous
materials.
Finally someone in Halswell tried
to light their fireplace with the help
of petrol on Monday. The result
was a lounge on fire. This is not a
rare occurrence. One word if you’re
tempted – don’t.

Festival’s money woes
A POPULAR local music
festival, celebrating community
connections and the coming of
spring, is in financial strife.
In October, the first New
Brighton Spring Music Festival
was run. It was successful, and
drew in about 500 people to the
seaside suburb.
But, the festival’s organiser
Raewyn Murray said without the
assistance of a major financial
backer the festival had last year, it
may not go ahead.
“I’m finding funding quite
hard to come by this year. It’s got
to cover things like the St John
ambulances, toilets, and various
things we need. The sound and
stage needs a lot of funding as
well. I had a financial backer last
year, but they’re unable to help out
this year,” she said.
Mrs Murray estimated that the
cost of this year’s festival would be
significantly less than last year’s.
She said it is mainly due to the
needs of some of the previous
year’s performers.
“It will most likely be less than
last time. It was $10,000 last year,
but we brought Written by Wolves
down last year, and we had to
use a certain brand of drums,
and this, that and the next thing

goes ahead.
for them to be happy. I think it’ll
be better to have a Christchurch
band headlining anyway. They
were a big draw card, though,
people loved them,” she said.
Mrs Murray said the festival
will be about $5000 this time
around, but needs the help of the
public to make it happen.
“It’s just about accommodating
all the things we want. I always
have bands come up to me and say
I’m keen to get [the festival] done.
There are so many bands that
want to get out there and it’s just
a matter of running through who
would mix and match,” she said.
She has set up a Givealittle
page where people can donate as
much, or as little, money as they
want. All money received will go
towards this year’s event.
If you would like to help, go to
www.givealittle.co.nz and search

Festival.
In Brief
RED ZONE PLANTING
The Avon-Otakaro Network
is running a crowd-funding
campaign to raise enough
money to re-plant 680m of
wetlands along Anzac Drive
Reserve. The re-planting
will take place in between
Corserland St and the New
Brighton Rd roundabout. The
group plans to re-plant 680m,
which means it will need a
total of $16,660. Currently the
group has the funds to cover
210m, and has raised $5145.
The group will be running
the crowd-funding campaign
until June 30.
NO GOLF AT PARK
The Burwood-Pegasus
Community Board was
advised last week that it was
not legal for people to use
Queenspark Reserve as a
“casual golf driving range”.
This information came
after complaints that local
residents were using the
reserve to practice golf shots,
and the board requested
more information. City
councillor Glenn Livingstone
said there are many places
to practice golf, but the park
was not one of those, as it
raised “health and safety:”
issues.
EXPERTS APPOINTED
A panel of five experts has
been appointed to peer
review Tonkin & Taylor’s
controversial Coastal
Hazards Report 2015. The
panel consists of Shonagh
Kenderdine, Dr Deidre
Hart, Dr Willem De Lange,
Associate Professor Ron Cox
and Dr Murray Smith. The
group will investigate the
science behind the report,
which has been widely
criticised.
BASKETBALL TOO LOUD
After presenting a deputation
to the Burwood-Pegasus
Community Board, an
unhappy Shirley resident may
be getting soundproofing
installed around a local
basketball court. Linda
Callaghan’s house backs
onto Fairway Reserve.
She was annoyed that
“loud basketballers” were
disrupting her sleep. The
board was told that options,
such as sound-proofing the
basketball court, were being
investigated

Pupils get cycle tracks
RAWHITI SCHOOL has
started a possible $120,000
project, which includes three
tracks and 50 new bikes.
Rawhiti has begun a bikes
in schools programme, which
could see a maximum of three
new tracks installed at the
school, as well as 50 bikes and
helmets, kept safely in a storage
shed.
The only catch is the school
has already used up its Ministry
of Education capital funding,
which other schools around the
country have used to cover most
of the project costs.
Therefore, Rawhiti has had
to be more creative with their
fundraising.
Deputy principal Paul
Wilkinson said after good
feedback from the community
about what challenges their
pupils faced getting to and from
school, they decided this was
the best option.
“We’re really excited to be able
to put together this package of
bikes and tracks for the community
and pupils . . . we heard
from the parents that the roads
aren’t safe, combined with the
changes in road works in the
area, and cones everywhere,
that parents didn’t feel comfortable
sending their kids to school
on bikes,” he said.
The school has received a

Sport Incorporated, and last
week it received a further
$10,000 from the Burwood-
Pegasus Community Board.
The school board has also
contributed $20,000 to the
overall cost.
This means if the school
wants to build all three tracks,
it only has to raise about
$20,000.
The three possible tracks the
school could build are a mini
BMX or ‘pump’ track, a skills
track, including see-saws and
bridges, as well as a 440m track
circling the school.
The loop track would be 440m
in length, and 2m wide, and will
be built on site.
PASSIONATE performances,
talented singers and community
markets were all features of the
recent Matariki east-side event.
The event was held on
Thursday and
Friday evening
last week at
Aranui High
School.
There
were market
stalls in the
afternoon, and
performance art
in the evenings.
The event was
particularly special as it will be
the last time that seven eastern
schools collaborated on the
project.
Aranui High School hosted
St James, Aranui Primary,
Avondale, Queenspark, Wainoni,
and Rawhiti schools over the two
days, which was centred around
the celebration of the schools’
final event.
Both Aranui schools, Avondale
and Wainoni schools will all
close at the end of the year to
make way for the new Haeata
Community Campus super
school, which is currently being
built on the site of Aranui High.

Jasper Pelayo, who
will be attending
Haeata Community
Campus in 2017
For Year Eight student Jasper Pelayo, the new
Haeata Community Campus represents an
opportunity to learn in state-of-the-art facilities
and meet new people.
“I am looking forward to more students to work
together and cooperate with, new classrooms
and buildings and facilities like the theatre,” says
Jasper, who currently attends Aranui Primary.
Jasper will be among the 900 students
attending Haeata when it opens its doors in
term one of 2017.
A community information evening is being held
on Wednesday night (15 June) to give people
the chance to learn more about the innovative
new school and speak directly with members
of the Senior Leadership Team. This is being held at the Aranui Wainoni
Community Centre on Hampshire Street from 6.00pm.
Catering for students in Years 1-13, Haeata is currently being built on the
Aranui High School site. It will combine pupils from the four schools that
are closing in eastern Christchurch – Aranui Primary, Wainoni Primary,
Avondale Primary and Aranui High School – as well as welcoming new
students from the local community.
Haeata Community Campus principal Andy Kai Fong encourages people
to attend the information evening to see first hand what the new school will
offer and get answers to any questions they may have.
“This is a great opportunity to speak directly with the Senior Leadership
Team, myself included, about the various opportunities at Haeata and
what the new school can offer your child and family/whānau,” says Andy.
“Architectural plans will be available for viewing alongside floor plans of
the buildings to help our parents, students and the community familiarise
themselves with the new spaces.”
Haeata represents a new start for the east and will provide significant
opportunities for students and the wider community, says Andy.
“This purpose-built campus will be a place of learning for the whole
community, where identity, culture and language are celebrated and
strengthened.
“Families can be confident that their children will have access to quality
and innovative education that provides a strong foundation for their future.
We can’t wait to welcome our first students in 2017.”

CTV News on Plains FM
A COLLABORATION between
two local news broadcasters has
started.
Plains FM began live broadcasting
the CTV evening news
on June 7, running each weekday
from 5.30-6pm.
Plains FM is a community-run
station based at the Ara Institute
of Canterbury.
CTV is locally-owned by
Star Media and has broadcast
regional news since 1991.
Plains FM manager Nicki
Reece said it was a great local
collaboration.
“For us, it’s a natural fit,
because we’re firmly locallybased
with programmes by and
for the community, and this is a
further reflection of what’s going
on in a visual way at CTV.
“So it’s a really nice crosspollination
between two local
entities,” Ms Reece said.
Star Media editor-in-chief
Barry Clarke said the association
with Plains FM was another step
for CTV as it broadens its reach
in the Canterbury region.
Plains FM is broadcast on 96.9
FM, and is also live streamed at

Houses needed for
exchange students
AN EXCHANGE programme is
asking Christchurch families to
open their doors to international
students.
Student Exchange Australia
New Zealand will be sending
high school-aged children to
Christchurch, from as close as
Australia to as far away as Brazil
and France.
The group is a not-for-profit
organisation.
This month, it will be receiving
students from Australia, Brazil,
Denmark, France, Finland, Germany,
Japan and Switzerland.
The new arrivals plan to live
with a host family and attend a
local school for three, five or 10
months.
Hosting an exchange student
allows local families to experience
a foreign culture first-hand,
be exposed to a new language
and pass on parts of their own
culture.
All students have at least basic
levels of English, and would attend
a school in the local area.
Aboriginal student Jaydah is
looking forward to living in New
Zealand and is hoping to learn
about the Maori culture.
Denmark native Caroline, 16,
has been to New Zealand before
and loved it so much she now
wants to live there and experience
the culture as an exchange
student.
In her spare time, Caroline
works as a swimming instructor
and in a bakery.
Nathan, 16, is a French student
who enjoys school, tennis, handball
and skiing.
He loves hiking in nature and
is looking forward to discovering
New Zealand and meeting new
people.
But a host family isn’t only doing
the student a favour by giving
them a roof over their head, as
told by the Stuart family.
They hosted Danish student
Simon for eight months. Victoria
Stuart said the experience was
fantastic, and that Simon was
a role model to their younger
children.

PEGASUS POST
When the world is your stage
Ailis Oliver-Kerby, 21, is fast on track to
becoming a professional performer after
being accepted into performing arts schools
in London, New York and Australia. She spoke
to Georgia O’Connor-Harding about living all
around the world while growing up, her love
of the arts and being related to broadcaster
Bernadine Oliver-Kerby.
Great speaking to you. How
are you finding performing in
Showbiz Christchurch’s Hairspray
so far?
I have been absolutely loving
it. It has just been such a positive
experience and to have audiences
at last is so different. Having the
laughs is more fun. I’m playing
Penny Pingleton. She is such
a lovable character with great
one-liners. Hairspray is one of
my favourite shows and Penny
is one of my ultimate roles. I
did Hairspray in the
United Kingdom but I
always wanted to play
Penny. When I came
to Dunedin I got that,
which is cool, and
now I have it again,
which is special.
You’ve been all
around the world.
Tell me about the
places you’ve lived
in?
It’s always a hard
question when
someone asks where I am from
because it is quite a long story. I
was born in Auckland and then
lived in Christchurch as a primary
school kid. My family moved
to England for a couple of years
before my teenage years. It was
back and forth from England to
here. Then, when I was about 12,
we moved to Hong Kong because
my Dad worked as a pilot with
a Hong Kong airline – Cathay
Pacific. It was getting really hard
for the family to be so split up all
the time. Dad was always flying
so we all moved there together.
What was growing up in
Hong Kong like?
NEW LOCATION ADVERT.pdf 1 1/05/2014 11:51:35 a.m.
CENTRE STAGE: Ailis Oliver-Kerby playing the role of Liesl in
the Sound of Music with Taieri Musical Society last year.
It was such an amazing adventure.
We were there for seven
years and there was a great theatre
scene in Hong Kong as well.
The dance is competitive there.
I worked hard with my singing
and dancing at the international
Island School. I met lots of British,
American and Australian
teachers. It is really different in
the middle of the city. So cultural.
I feel home there now but I
can see why people would have a
cultural shock.
And then you went
to the United Kingdom
to study?
I was 16 and I
heard about a musical
theatre course in the
United Kingdom. It
was a pre-tertiary
musical theatre
course at Tring Park
School for Performing
Arts. I just
wanted to be somewhere
I could do this
full-time.
What drew you back to New
Zealand?
It felt like I needed to get back
to my roots. I liked the look of
Otago University – I had lots
of old friends going there. The
main building is kind of like
Hogwarts.
What’s the most valuable
thing you’ve picked up from
studying the performing arts?
I think the hardest thing about
this industry is all the set backs.
And you have to believe in yourself.
If you don’t believe in yourself
no one else will. I recently
did the Christchurch International
Musical Theatre Summer
School and Andrea Burns,
who is on Broadway in On Your
Feet! at the moment, said to us:
“If you’re ready, you never have
to get ready”. It is all about being
prepared. And you have to
be prepared for every audition.
Preparation is the one thing that
can help you. You have got to appreciate
the good moments and
not let the bad moments suck it
out of you.
And is it your dream to be on
West End with all your achievements?
After getting accepted into the
Royal Central School of Speech
and Drama in London, Stella
Adler Studio of Acting in New
York and Making it On Broadway
in Sydney, it is my dream to
work in West End productions.
I most recently came second in
the International Monologue
Competition where I was lucky
enough to receive more than
2000 votes.
What an incredible variety
of places to choose from.
Have you thought about
what option you will take
up?
I do think London is where I
want to be. I have worked there
before and have contacts. I also
just found out I got into Legally
Blonde at the Court Theatre. I
haven’t confirmed anything yet.
I am trying to defer my place
in London so I can do the show
here and go the following year.
Everything is still in limbo at the
moment.
Tell me a bit more about your
family. Your dad is a pilot, what
do the others do?
My Mum studied psychology
and she is a career coach. She
is also a business owner. She
does psychology assessments.
She helps me with my CV. My
brother Lachie is very talented.
He has just released his album
on SoundCloud called The
Reach. His music is alternative
rap and he creates his own beats.
My brother is also a massive
rugby player at school. When he
was at Christ’s College he was in
the first XV for rugby. He is very
talented.
What’s it like being related to
Bernadine Oliver-Kerby?
She is an amazing aunty. She
is always there for me. I’ve been
to Auckland quite a lot with my
auditions and agency, Auckland
Actors Ltd. She always drives me
around and would do anything
for us. She enjoys watching
shows. She came and watched
my brother in his school production
of Cats and she came to see
me in the Sound of Music with
the Taieri Musical Society last
year. She has an amazing voice
as well. Not sure if she sings a lot
anymore. It is her little secret.
She was in musicals at school.
You are so busy with your
performing. What do you
always make time for and value
the most?
I value my time with my family.
I take my studies seriously. I
loved doing my degree, reading
and performing. I am lucky to
have friends all over the world
now which I value greatly.

BIG OPPORTUNITY: Ben Wilson has an opportunity to head to
France to complete his PhD.
Young scholar off
to study in France
• By Fraser Walker-Pearce
A FORMER Shirley Boys’ High
School head prefect has gained a
$25,000 scholarship to complete
his PhD paper in France.
Ben Wilson, 21, is the recipient
of the New Zealand France
Friendship Fund Excellence
Scholarship, which allows him to
complete his studies of supramolecular
chemistry at the University
of Bordeaux, in France.
When he left Shirley Boys’, Mr
Wilson went straight into the
second year of studying chemistry
because of some outstanding
grades in his final year of high
school.
Mr Wilson earned a Bachelor
of Science degree with first class
honours from Canterbury
University, graduating top of his
class.
He was also awarded the Roper
Scholarship to undertake his
PhD studies.
Canterbury University’s
professor of chemistry Paul
Kruger said Mr Wilson is one of
the “most capable students” he
has taught.
Mr Wilson studied the French
language in high school, and
took part in a student exchange
to the European country, where
he stayed with a French family in
the town of Bourges, about 3hrs
drive from Paris.
Mr Wilson has selected to
undertake his study at the the
National Center for Scientific Research,
the Centre de Recherche
Paul Pascal, and the Institut de
Chimie de la Matiere Condensee
de Bordeaux, because of their
expertise and knowledge in the
area of magneto-chemistry.
He will travel with Professor
Kruger, from Canterbury, and
Dr Rodolphe Clerac and Professor
Corine Mathoniere, from the
University of Bordeaux.
The NZFFF Excellence Scholarship
was established in 2009, and
was designed to support one New
Zealand student and one French
student’s endeavours to complete
their PhD studies.
It is a reciprocal scholarship,
and each year a French postgraduate
student is given the
opportunity to study in New
Zealand.
RESTORED: The Linwood Community Arts Centre was restored by the city council after it
was badly damaged in the February 2011 earthquake.
2016 Canterbury Heritage Award winners:
• By Fraser Walker-Pearce
THE LINWOOD Community
Arts Centre was shortlisted for a
heritage award after it was saved
from demolition following the
Febraury 22, 2011, earthquake.
The community centre was
put up for the Public Realm
Saved and Restored category.
The joint winners of the
award category were the Isaac
Theatre Royal and the Bridge of
Remembrance.
The Linwood Community
Arts Centre was commended on
the night.
The biennial Canterbury Heritage
Awards were held at the
Christchurch Arts Centre on
Thursday night, and recognised
excellence in heritage retention
and conservation, heritage tourism
and future heritage.
The city council took charge
of the repairs and restoration
of the centre, which saw nearly
$660,000 spent on its repair,
rather than rebuild.
The city council’s programme
manager for heritage rebuild,
Richie Moyle, said the money
went towards the reconstruction
of the south brick masonry
fire wall, four new chimneys,
a collapsed roof in the south
reading room, as well as updating
the centre to building code
standards.
Linwood Community Arts
Centre development co-ordinator,
Shirley Scarlett, said she was
amazed that the fireplace was
modelled and installed from
looking at a photo, “in keeping
with the old” centre.
“All kinds of people use the
centre, too. We run art-related
activities, and focus on locality,
although you don’t have to
come from the inner east area
to partake in the activities, but
that’s who we’re here for,” she
said.
Mrs Scarlett said the centre
was established as a place for
people on a lower income to
join in with art activities, while
spending only a small amount
of money to do so.
“We charge $2 a class so everyone
can take part. There is exhibition
space for the art works,
and we host events throughout
the year. We specialise in
multicultural events, at the moment
we have an exhibition on
showing Maori artists’ work,”
she said.

Future Football Ferns
• By Gordon Findlater
TWO COASTAL Spirit players are
looking to book their spot in the
New Zealand under-20 women’s
football squad for this year’s World
Cup in Papua New Guinea.
Central defender Rebecca Lake
was recently named in the New
Zealand under-17 team which will
head to China in July, before their
upcoming World Cup in Jordan,
beginning this September.
After being named in the New
Zealand under-20 training squad,
Lake now has the rare opportunity
of potentially representing her
country in two different age group
world cups in the same year.
Goalkeeper Una Foyle joins her
Coastal Spirit teammate in the
training squad and is no stranger to
the under-20 set up, having already
represented the team over the past
12 months.
At 17, both girls can also look
ahead to the prospect of two potential
under-20 tournament as they
will still be eligible for the 2018
World Cup in France.
“After this campaign, I’ll be
training hard for selection for the
next under-20 World Cup in 2018
as I will still be eligible,” says Foyle.
The two girls are currently in
Auckland with the team which has
two friendly matches against the
United States under-19 side touring
New Zealand.
SOUND IN DEFENCE: Rebecca Lake can potentially represent
New Zealand at two World Cups this year.
GRABBING THE
OPPORTUNITY:
Goalkeeper Una
Foyle will look
to cement her
spot in the New

squad for this

Postal and banking
services now
offered in Ferrymead
PostShop manager Carrie, left, and her assistants Kim and Sharmaine
Take Note Ferrymead have a full range of NZ Post services, plus books, stationery, cards and so much more.
Residents from Woolston through
to Sumner now have the benefit of
local NZ Post and Kiwibank services
seven days a week, thanks to Take
Note in Ferrymead.
The popular book and stationery store
has taken on the franchise for the postal and
banking services, with the new franchise
operation, Take Note Ferrymead PostShop and
Kiwibank, open for business as of May 19.
“Being open seven days a week means we’ll be
available when people need us,” says PostShop
manager Carrie.
“By opening at the weekend we’re catering
to working people who can’t get to the bank or
Post Office during the week.”
Carrie brings 11 years’ experience managing
PostShops to her new Ferrymead role, while
her two assistants, Kim and Sharmaine, are also
experienced PostShop staff.
Take Note owners Barry and Kerry moved
their business from neighbouring premises
into the former Video Ezy site several months
ago in preparation for setting up the NZ Post
and Kiwibank franchise, as they were keen to
provide an even wider range of services for their
customers.
PostShop facilities include bill paying for telco
companies, power companies and The Press,
vehicle registration and diesel miles. Kiwibank
customers can set up bank accounts, automatic
bill payments and deposit and withdraw cash,
while those wanting to enquire about obtaining
a Kiwibank mortgage can have an appointment
arranged with a mobile mortgage manager at a
time to suit.
Since establishing Take Note Ferrymead
(formerly Paper Plus Ferrymead) 14 years ago,
Barry and Kerry have built up a strong and loyal
customer base from across the Bay Harbour
News readership area by offering friendly
service and an extensive selection of books,
magazines, stationery, toys, gifts, greeting cards
and wrapping paper.
The wide range of book titles includes travel
books, recipe books, novels and children’s
books. Home and office stationery supplies
include everything from printing paper and
ink cartridges to notepads and exercise books,
filing systems and paper clips.
Customers can browse through an
attractive range of gift items, including locally
manufactured items, or alternatively there are
gift cards and Prezzy Cards in a range of values.
Ferrymead is one of the city’s fastest-growing
retail and business areas, and Take Note
Ferrymead PostShop and Kiwibank is ideally
located among a mix of other business outlets
including hardware, supermarket, cafes and
professional services.
There is extensive off-street parking available
at the front and rear of the store and a bus stop
close by on Ferry Road.
Opening hours are Monday to Friday,
8.30am to 5.30pm, Saturday 9am to 5.30pm

Our passion . . .
their future
At our two Kids & Co Ltd
Preschools – Lake Terrace
Preschool and Bottle Lake
Preschool – we recognise
that ‘family’ are the most
important people in
children’s lives. That’s why
families’ aspirations and
beliefs form the foundation
of everything we do with
and for the children,
parents and caregivers.
We also firmly believe that children are unique individuals capable
of making sound decisions in regards to their own learning. At
our pre-schools, children are the leaders of their own curriculum.
We intentionally work alongside them to develop and progress
their special interests and
talents as they start to build
lifelong learning skills.
Through our experience
with children we have
developed our ‘priorities for
learning’. These are broken
down into skills that create
a strong foundation for
lifelong learning processes
and are interwoven
throughout all areas of our
curriculum.
Our Lake Terrace Preschool Manager Michelle Cross and Bottle
Lake Preschool Manager Rachel Allan, along with our team of
passionate and dedicated teachers, are fully committed to our
philosophy and teaching approach towards children’s learning.
We also have a strong
commitment to bi-cultural
practices and believe in the
importance of honouring
our Treaty partnership.
had formal training are rich in life skills. All of them are strong
advocates for children and love working with them. The owners
of Lake Terrace Preschool and Bottle Lake Preschool, Karen and
Lindsay Byrne, are here on a regular basis interacting with teachers
and children.
The learning environment at both preschools is bright, inviting and
well maintained.
There are three areas
in each, Nursery, Pre-
School and Kindergarten,
with high-quality,
developmentally
appropriate resources
provided.
Our last ERO Report in
February which stated
the centre was ‘well
placed’ to provide quality
care and education for
children, was very welcome and reinforced our confidence in the
quality of our programmes.
Our strong ‘transition to school’ programme, which we have
developed through working closely with local schools, ensures
children can head off to school fully prepared for their new learning
environment. And the feedback we receive from schools is that
children arrive ‘well prepared’.
We offer 20 hours ECE
and WINZ subsidies

parents and caregivers to
visit our Preschools and

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.
PEGASUS POST
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.

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