Call to save boardwalk<br />

• By Fraser Walker-Pearce<br />

SOUTH NEW Brighton<br />

residents are furious at the lack<br />

of action by the city council<br />

to stop the estuary edge and<br />

walkway eroding away.<br />

They say action needs to be<br />

taken quickly to save not only<br />

the estuary edge that runs from<br />

the end of Caspian St to Bridge<br />

St, but also the walkway, off<br />

Estuary Rd.<br />

The walkway was built about<br />

25 years ago, but now is warped<br />

and twisted after being<br />

damaged in the February 22,<br />

2011 earthquake and a lack of<br />

care, they say, from the city<br />

council.<br />

But the city council says it is<br />

taking a “no regrets” approach<br />

to the treatment of the estuary<br />

edge.<br />

Investigations had been delayed<br />

because of the engineering<br />

and funding problems, it said.<br />

City council head of strategic<br />

policy Helen Beaumont said it<br />

needed to weigh the cost and<br />

benefits of the potential solutions.<br />

Natural dune systems and<br />

planting, sea walls, stop banks<br />

and pumping stations were potential<br />

solutions, she said.<br />

A report on what to do with<br />

the boardwalk would be before<br />

the Burwood-<strong>Pegasus</strong> Community<br />

Board in September.<br />

City councillor David East said<br />

there was a number of environmental<br />

reports that could have<br />

been done, but “there were other<br />

priorities”.<br />

But community board member<br />

Tim Sintes said the city<br />

council response was not good<br />

enough.<br />

Residents want the same<br />

amount of money spent on their<br />

estuary edges as was spent at<br />

Ferrymead and Redcliffs, he<br />

said. About $5.3m was spent by<br />

the city council to build a 500m<br />

long sea wall in Redcliffs in 2014.<br />

The annual plan has $337,000<br />

earmarked for the boardwalk,<br />

but it was unknown how much<br />

was budgeted for the estuary.<br />

Mr Sintes said: “It’s been left<br />

to rack and ruin. It’s very disheartening<br />

for those who come<br />

over here after being in the Ferrymead<br />

or Redcliffs area and see<br />

how much money has been spent<br />

on their sea walls, and they come<br />

over here and they can’t see any<br />

sea walls.”<br />

South Brighton Motor Camp<br />

resident Deidre McGowan said<br />

the estuary edge and boardwalk<br />

were popular and said it was<br />

indicative to her of “how little<br />

the city council cares”.<br />

NEGLECT:<br />

Deidre<br />

McGowan and<br />

Tim Sintes are<br />

fed up with the<br />

city council’s<br />

inaction over<br />

the South<br />

IT IS a sad fact that bullying is<br />

not only prevalent in schools, but<br />

in many other facets of life. Vicki<br />

Edwards-Brown is the driving<br />

force behind Be The Change,<br />

an anti-bullying programme<br />

that started after she saw a lack<br />

of empathy for those subjected<br />

to schoolyard harassment. The<br />

actress and singer talks about not<br />

only the programme but her stint<br />

on Shortland Street on page 6.<br />

On page 17, reporter Donna<br />

Miles talks to the Canterbury<br />

Muslim Community Trust.<br />

Though they do not suffer the<br />

same levels of “islamophobia”<br />

compared to the rest of the world,<br />

there is still a way to go in understanding<br />

the different cultures<br />

of the 40 ethnic groups that<br />

represent the Muslim community<br />

in the city.<br />

Have a good week.<br />

East-siders looked down on<br />

• By Fraser Walker-Pearce<br />

EASTERN suburbs teenagers<br />

feel the rest of the city look<br />

down on them due to where<br />

they live and the schools they<br />

go to.<br />

That is the conclusion made<br />

by 17-year-old Christchurch<br />

East youth MP and Aranui<br />

High School student, Bethany<br />

Walters.<br />

Bethany interviewed more<br />

than 50 students from Aranui<br />

High, Linwood College and<br />

Mairehau High School for her<br />

short film – Eastside Youth:<br />

Our Voice.<br />

She said that although<br />

more than 70 per cent of the<br />

students she interviewed liked<br />

living in the east, the majority<br />

feel they are looked down on<br />

by the rest of the city because<br />

of the school they attend, and<br />

the suburbs they live in.<br />

“The stigma and reputation<br />

that people who don’t live<br />

here give the east is not a true<br />

representation,” she said.<br />

Bethany said overwhelmingly<br />

the students felt underappreciated<br />

and left out of<br />

decisions that will impact their<br />

future.<br />

“They said the east was<br />

resilient . . . but felt like local<br />

government and central<br />

government weren’t engaging<br />

youth in the process of recovery<br />

in the east.”<br />

Christchurch East MP Poto<br />

Williams said Bethany was “a<br />

credit” to the community that<br />

she is fighting for.<br />

“She’s making sure the<br />

voices in the east are heard.<br />

She’s also making sure that<br />

people on the other side of the<br />

country know how the youth<br />

on the east of Christchurch<br />

feel.<br />

“Youth often get left out<br />

unless people are really intentional<br />

about seeking their<br />

voices. She’s doing a really<br />

good thing, she’s showing that<br />

everyone counts, especially<br />

youth,” she said.<br />

Aranui High principal<br />

Maree Furness said the<br />

film was a voice for eastern<br />

Christchurch.<br />

“ The youth that live here<br />

have some amazing ideas,<br />

so it would be great if their<br />

opinions were really sought.<br />

Particularly as some of their<br />

decisions are impacting their<br />

future,” she said.<br />

BEHIND THE SCENES:<br />

Bethany Walters’ film,<br />

Eastside Youth: Our Voice,<br />

depicts the concerns of<br />

students in the eastern<br />

suburbs.<br />

FLYING FOX COMPLAINT<br />

A childrens’ flying fox was taken down<br />

in the Prestons’ subdivision last week<br />

because it exceeded noise levels. City<br />

councillor Glenn Livingstone said last<br />

week that he would be working with the<br />

Burwood-<strong>Pegasus</strong> Community Board to<br />

find “a positive outcome” in the coming<br />

weeks.<br />

CONTAMINATED WATER<br />

Banks Avenue School have tested its<br />

water for cryptosporidium, a bug that<br />

causes upset stomachs. The school said<br />

it was notified last week that a pupil<br />

had cryptosporidiosis, and had to be<br />

kept away from school. The school also<br />

said it had “several” pupils off school<br />

with “tummy bugs” recently, so had<br />

undertaken precautionary measures.<br />

Playgrounds need to<br />

be wheelchair-friendly<br />

Shirley-Papanui<br />

Community<br />

Board member<br />

Jo Byrne talks<br />

about having<br />

“wheelchairfriendly<br />

surfaces” in<br />

childrens’ playgrounds, so all<br />

children have the chance to<br />

play.<br />

Many people know of my<br />

interest in flooding issues in the<br />

Flockton area.<br />

However, many people don’t<br />

realise that, as a part-time speech<br />

language therapist working with<br />

children and young people with<br />

disabilities, I have also been<br />

actively advocating for more inclusive<br />

facilities in our ward.<br />

The therapy team I work with<br />

made an in-depth submission to<br />

the Margaret Mahy family playground<br />

team on making that play<br />

area safe and accessible for people<br />

with disabilities.<br />

Overseas, many major cities are<br />

developing all access play areas.<br />

These are destination play areas<br />

where children of all abilities can<br />

play on the equipment.<br />

This means children with disabilities<br />

can play alongside their<br />

siblings and friends. Children can<br />

be side-by-side using different<br />

swings, including basket swings<br />

and platform swings.<br />

Children using wheelchairs<br />

are then not isolated in the<br />

wheelchair swing in the corner of<br />

a park.<br />

Internationally there are now<br />

play equipment manufacturers<br />

which specialise in accessible play<br />

grounds.<br />

In Auckland an all abilities<br />

playground has opened in Long<br />

Bay.<br />

Locally, it is fantastic to see the<br />

Smile Dial Sensory Garden development<br />

plans in Burwood.<br />

The Shirley-Papanui Community<br />

Board has been working for<br />

more accessible play areas in our<br />

ward, too.<br />

As playgrounds in the ward<br />

have come up for renewal, we<br />

have supported city council staff<br />

in coming up with play solutions<br />

that work for as many children as<br />

possible (while operating within<br />

the proposed budget).<br />

This means we have chosen<br />

more wheelchair friendly surfaces,<br />

and equipment that has<br />

more options for less physically<br />

able children.<br />

Work has started in the Craighead<br />

Reserve play area, and is<br />

planned for the new The Groynes<br />

play area.<br />

The community board would<br />

love a future Christchurch that<br />

has play equipment across the<br />

city for all our young people, so<br />

they can play safely in their own<br />

community and have the most<br />

suitable resources available.<br />

Another project the community<br />

board has had input into is the<br />

working party for the design of<br />

the new St Albans Community<br />

Centre.<br />

The plans for the proposed centre<br />

include an adult change bed,<br />

and hopefully will also include a<br />

ceiling hoist.<br />

This means that adults with disabilities<br />

who are unable to use the<br />

usual disability toilet facilities can<br />

still access their community and<br />

not have to go home when they<br />

need changing.<br />

This would open the community<br />

facility for use for a wider<br />

range of community groups.<br />

We all hope that when we look<br />

at the future Christchurch that it<br />

is truly accessible.<br />

HAVE YOUR SAY: Do you<br />

agree with Jo Byrne? What<br />

parks can you think of that<br />

specifically need to be upgraded<br />

so that all children<br />

can enjoy them? Email fraser.<br />

FLAME FILES<br />

GUTTED: A garage fire on Linwood Ave started when hot<br />

ash was put in a bin.<br />

Winter fire tips<br />

• By Mark Thomas – Fire<br />

Risk Management Officer<br />

TWO PROPERTY fires, with all<br />

the drama and heartache they<br />

entail, occurred last week – the<br />

result of very topical causes<br />

reflecting the start of winter.<br />

In the early hours of <strong>June</strong> 12,<br />

a household in Parklands was<br />

alerted by smoke alarms to the<br />

fact the house was on fire.<br />

That there were operating<br />

smoke detectors saved a possible<br />

tragedy, but the cause may have<br />

been avoidable.<br />

The origin of the fire was<br />

traced to a clothes dryer that<br />

had been started before the occupants<br />

went to bed.<br />

There’s two points here.<br />

Firstly, it isn’t known whether<br />

the lint filter had been cleared<br />

recently.<br />

If it hadn’t, and this should<br />

be done every time the drier is<br />

used, it is possible the contents<br />

just got hotter and hotter to<br />

PEGASUS POST<br />

ignition temperature.<br />

Secondly, the use of these<br />

things should probably be restricted<br />

to when you’re at home,<br />

up and alert.<br />

Then you can deal with<br />

problems immediately as they<br />

occur.<br />

The other fire was a classic<br />

winter event, where fire ash was<br />

left against the side of a garage<br />

in Linwood on <strong>June</strong> 14.<br />

Ash is an excellent insulator.<br />

Hot embers encased in the ash,<br />

inside a bucket, will not cool<br />

down for days.<br />

In this case, heat transferred<br />

through the ash, the side of the<br />

bucket and the iron cladding of<br />

the garage, igniting the wooden<br />

framing.<br />

It is recommended that five<br />

days is the minimum time to<br />

expect ash to completely cool.<br />

That’s five days you must<br />

keep the ash and bucket outside<br />

and well away from anything<br />

combustible.<br />

New Brighton rugby stronger than ever<br />

Glenn Matthews,<br />

of New Brighton,<br />

talks about the<br />

community’s<br />

winning attitude.<br />

The culture that has been built<br />

within the New Brighton Rugby<br />

Club – especially after the<br />

earthquakes, when some thought<br />

the suburb would fade away –<br />

was a big key to the club’s success<br />

this season.<br />

Previously<br />

United Travel<br />

The club created history when<br />

the division 1 and 2 sides both<br />

won their first round competitions<br />

in the Hawkins Cup.<br />

It is the first time that the club<br />

has won both grades on the same<br />

day.<br />

The division 1 side went into<br />

the final round level on points<br />

with Lincoln University, who<br />

were aiming to be the first club<br />

to win the Hawkins Cup four<br />

years in a row.<br />

As expected, New Brighton<br />

cruised past Belfast, running in<br />

12 tries in a 72-12 win to secure<br />

their 9th win in 11 matches,<br />

while Lincoln University were<br />

unable to earn a bonus point in<br />

their 15-10 win over Sydenham.<br />

Therefore, the trophy was<br />

handed to the sea-siders for the<br />

first time since 2010 when they<br />

shared it with High School Old<br />

Boys.<br />

The division 2 side remained<br />

unbeaten and hold a 14-point<br />

lead with two rounds to play<br />

after winning their 11th straight<br />

match 49-19 against a tough<br />

Sydenham side.<br />

The closeness of the two sides<br />

and communication between<br />

the coaching staff and the senior<br />

coaching staff, of Scott Pawson<br />

and Troy Manaena, was responsible<br />

for the win.<br />

The senior side will now look<br />

to win their first Hawkins Cup<br />

since 2013. Meanwhile, the Division<br />

2 side will be hoping to get<br />

their name on it for the first time<br />

since 2012.<br />

Super-school recruiting<br />

• By Fraser Walker-Pearce<br />

SUPER-SCHOOL in the<br />

making, Haeata Community<br />

Campus, will be looking to fill<br />

more than 40 staffing positions<br />

over the next two weekends.<br />

The school, being built on the<br />

site of Aranui High School, will<br />

see the closure of Avondale Primary,<br />

Wainoni, Aranui Primary<br />

and Aranui High schools at the<br />

end of the year.<br />

Haeata principal Andy Kai<br />

Fong said he was looking forward<br />

to meeting the “shortlist”<br />

of applicants for the more than<br />

40 positions they are looking to<br />

fill.<br />

“We’re about to enter into<br />

two big weekends of recruiting,<br />

so we’re looking for more great<br />

staff. We have up to about 45<br />

positions to offer, and we’ve<br />

had over 120 to 130 applicants.<br />

So we’ve trimmed that to a<br />

shortlist, but it’s still quite a long<br />

shortlist,” he said.<br />

Mr Kai Fong said he hopes<br />

to meet each applicant on the<br />

shortlist to make the strongest<br />

staffing team possible, and<br />

begin offering roles at the end of<br />

term 2.<br />

“We’ll go into these recruiting<br />

weekends, and we will see at<br />

he said.<br />

Last week, Haeata announced<br />

the appointment of Aranui<br />

Primary’s deputy principal, Jess<br />

Bijl-Kakoi, as the super-school’s<br />

new diverse education leader.<br />

Mr Kai Fong said Ms Bijl-<br />

Kakoi will start with Haeata at<br />

the beginning of the next term.<br />

“With the Ministry’s model<br />

of staffing, we get to appoint a<br />

certain amount of staff in the<br />

middle of the year.<br />

We decided we could do with<br />

some extra support of diverse<br />

education, and celebrate the<br />

kids coming from four different<br />

schools . . . we’re excited to have<br />

her expertise and enthusiasm on<br />

board.<br />

“Each school has students<br />

that have shown home learning<br />

is becoming difficult, and we<br />

want to be able to support all of<br />

them.” he said.<br />

Wheelie bins<br />

get ID tags<br />

HAVE YOU ever wondered how<br />

the city council keeps track of all<br />

of its wheelie bins?<br />

The city council will carry out<br />

a stock take of kerbside wheelie<br />

bins throughout the city, starting<br />

next month. It is designed to<br />

reduce the cost of the bin collection<br />

service by removing lost,<br />

damaged and stolen bins from<br />

circulation.<br />

The stock take is expected to<br />

save ratepayers $9.3m over the<br />

course of the city council’s contract<br />

with Waste Management<br />

NZ, which runs until 2029.<br />

It will reduce the cost of<br />

collecting bins by $13.8m, but<br />

the stock take will cost the city<br />

council $4.5m.<br />

City council’s solid waste manager<br />

Ross Trotter said bins will<br />

be fitted with radio frequency<br />

tags to ensure damaged, stolen or<br />

lost bins can be easily identified.<br />

“The radio frequency chips<br />

can’t track the location of the<br />

bins. They communicate with<br />

the collection truck as it goes<br />

past to ensure that the bin is located<br />

near the correct property.<br />

It is a short range signal,” he said.<br />

They can then be checked<br />

and matched to the database,<br />

returned to their original property<br />

or re-allocated for future<br />

distribution.<br />

PEGASUS POST<br />

Our People<br />

Taking a stand against bullying<br />

Burwood resident Vicki Edwards-Brown started the<br />

charity Be The Change in 2011 to tackle the problem<br />

of bullying and help support victims. She spoke to<br />

reporter Tom Doudney about what inspired her to<br />

set the charity up, her role on Shortland Street and<br />

the freak spinal injury she suffered.<br />

I heard that you were actually<br />

bullied as an adult, is that<br />

right? What role did that play<br />

in starting Be The Change?<br />

Yes, I was but it’s not the driving<br />

force behind why I started<br />

Be The Change. That driving<br />

force was to do with my husband<br />

working in a high school, seeing<br />

the effect that bullying was<br />

having on young people around<br />

me, and just really having a<br />

desperate need to help them and<br />

massive empathy for them. I was<br />

thinking that’s hard enough, and<br />

then you have the earthquakes<br />

to deal with as well, and we need<br />

something in New Zealand to<br />

empower young people to stand<br />

up to bullying.<br />

Yeah, I was bullied in the<br />

workplace but I didn’t know it at<br />

the time, so I guess it would have<br />

been good to have tools and tips<br />

to know that, actually, that’s not<br />

okay.<br />

Can you tell me more about<br />

your background before<br />

starting Be The Change?<br />

My background is really in<br />

the speaking side of it. When I<br />

do the workshops and presentations,<br />

that comes from an acting<br />

background that I have. I have<br />

been on Shortland Street and<br />

other things when I was younger,<br />

so that has drawn me to being<br />

able to present to young people<br />

and fit in.<br />

When were you on Shortland<br />

Street?<br />

I was on in 2010. My husband<br />

[Shaun Edwards-Brown] was actually<br />

on for a whole year during<br />

2009 and 2010 as well. He was a<br />

pivotal character and I got a twomonth<br />

contract as well, which<br />

was really awesome.<br />

What character did you play?<br />

Her name was Jewel Fitzpatrick.<br />

What was Jewel like?<br />

She was actually an actress. I<br />

was acting, playing an actress.<br />

Who did your husband play<br />

on Shortland Street?<br />

He was Ben Goodall – a paramedic.<br />

How did your tenure end<br />

at Shortland Street? Did your<br />

character get killed off or anything<br />

like that?<br />

No, some main characters did<br />

a play and I was in that play, so<br />

the play just ran its course and<br />

that was it.<br />

Did being on Shortland Street<br />

open up any more doors for you<br />

in terms of acting?<br />

Yeah, we lived in Auckland<br />

for six months and did some<br />

ads and things like that. Then<br />

ON SCREEN:<br />

Vicki Edwards-<br />

Brown played<br />

the role of<br />

actor Jewel<br />

Fitzpatrick<br />

on the long<br />

running<br />

soap opera,<br />

Shortland<br />

Street.<br />

TAKING A STAND: Vicki Edwards-Brown started Be The<br />

Change, a charity that aims to tackle bullying. ​<br />

we came back to Christchurch,<br />

I had major back surgery and<br />

then, being stuck in bed for six<br />

weeks while watching TV, I saw<br />

something which inspired me to<br />

create Be The Change.<br />

What was it you saw on TV?<br />

It was a programme about<br />

a bully prevention charity in<br />

America called Challenge Day<br />

and I saw that and just thought<br />

‘wow, that is really awesome’<br />

and it just inspired me to do<br />

something because we needed<br />

something like that in New<br />

Zealand.<br />

You mentioned being in some<br />

ads, what might we recognise<br />

you from?<br />

They’re pretty old now –<br />

Vector’s fibre to the door was<br />

one. I was just like standing at<br />

a sink turning the tap on and<br />

trying to get water through a<br />

straw.<br />

But predominately I used to<br />

sing – I’d sing at Twiggers, at<br />

Addington Raceway. We used to<br />

sing every Friday and Saturday<br />

with the band. So a lot of my<br />

performing was theatrical with<br />

singing in a band and stuff like<br />

that. I had my own band called<br />

V.I.P. I have also done about 20<br />

shows through Showbiz over the<br />

years.<br />

What sort of music did you<br />

sing with your band?<br />

I love 80s. Anything from the<br />

60s right through. It was all Top<br />

of the Pops stuff that people like<br />

to hear.<br />

So, have you stopped playing<br />

with bands now?<br />

I do stuff with a group called<br />

Chant et Danse, a Christchurch<br />

entertainment group.<br />

You also mentioned that you<br />

had major back surgery, what<br />

happened there?<br />

It was a really freak accident.<br />

Eleven years ago we were driving<br />

along Moorhouse Ave and there<br />

were high winds and a threestorey-high<br />

tree broke off in the<br />

wind just as we drove past and<br />

the tree came through the roof<br />

on to my head.<br />

Oh my gosh!<br />

I’m laughing now but it wasn’t<br />

good at the time, and it literally<br />

broke my back. I had two spinal<br />

surgeries so I have got a titanium<br />

back.<br />

Do you feel good as new now?<br />

No, I have chronic back pain<br />

but I have just learned to live<br />

with it and do the best I can<br />

through exercise and being<br />

healthy and that sort of thing,<br />

and having a positive attitude<br />

about everything – everything. If<br />

you can think of something to be<br />

grateful for in life, and literally I<br />

think helping other people helps<br />

me. If I can lie in bed at night<br />

saying I have helped one person,<br />

that makes me happy.<br />

What sort of support do victims<br />

of bullying need most? Is<br />

it really just people being kind<br />

to them?<br />

That really is a huge part of<br />

it, yes. It takes a community<br />

to prevent bullying – not just<br />

a school, or the person, or the<br />

family. Schools are the ones that<br />

are often blamed but they really<br />

struggle with the resources and<br />

it’s people like me who can help<br />

them create positive cultures –<br />

and I need funding! Funding<br />

would enable me to give more resources<br />

and help to more schools<br />

in Christchurch.<br />

But yeah, just being kind and<br />

doing things like, for example,<br />

setting up lunchtime events at<br />

schools. We held an anonymous<br />

appreciation day at Cashmere<br />

High School, where we provided<br />

kids with cards and they write<br />

anonymously nice notes to other<br />

people. We delivered 1200 notes<br />

to teachers and students that day.<br />

It was such a wonderful experience<br />

and just set a positive buzz<br />

around the school.<br />

How do you think we should<br />

view people who bully? Are<br />

these bad people or should we<br />

pity them, too?<br />

I do believe that a bully generally<br />

is someone who is doing that<br />

because they are being bullied<br />

themselves, so I do go the way<br />

of feeling sorry for them and<br />

empathising with their situation,<br />

rather than telling them they’re<br />

bad.<br />

For all your blind repair and cleaning requirements<br />

The Blind Care Company has been<br />

cleaning and repairing the region’s blinds<br />

for over 60 years. Those six decades<br />

have seen changes in both fashion and<br />

technology. Styles have ranged from<br />

festooned fabric swags to straightforward<br />

and still popular holland roller blinds,<br />

from vertical to horizontal slat systems,<br />

and in every colour or pattern popular<br />

since the 1960s.<br />

Whatever your style, the Blind Care<br />

Company has the expertise to keep your<br />

window treatments looking fresh and<br />

working efficiently. Using only ecofriendly<br />

chemicals, the build-up of dirt,<br />

dust, grease, nicotine and smoke residue<br />

can be removed so that your blinds<br />

smell fresh and are restored to their<br />

original glory. The company can repair<br />

blinds also, having a huge range of parts<br />

in stock. And if you want something<br />

completely new, a great range of blinds is<br />

available for purchase.<br />

The company prides itself on efficient<br />

service, providing a fast turn-around,<br />

with most work taking one or two<br />

days, and a same day cleaning option is<br />

available. It makes it as easy as possible<br />

for clients. The Cashel Street location<br />

couldn’t be more convenient and a pickup<br />

and drop-off service is available. 150<br />

blinds per day can be cleaned at this site,<br />

or one of their mobile vans can do up to<br />

50 per day. That means they will come to<br />

your home or office, remove and clean<br />

your blinds on the spot and reinstall them<br />

for you.<br />

A cut-down and size alteration service<br />

is available in order that the blinds you<br />

bought are a perfect fit.<br />

They are experts in their field with a<br />

huge amount of experience to draw on.<br />

for at least 8 years, and many up to 20<br />

years. Whatever the job involves, they<br />

will work hard to make sure it gets done,<br />

they completed in 4 days.<br />

Junk food-free<br />

HEALTHY SCHOOL: Kaylee Lochrie-Bennet (left), Sheldon<br />

Lawson, and Willow Warwood-Manihera, from Bromley<br />

School, with Barbara Crooks from Ferrymead Rotary, who<br />

is helping them to become healthy heroes. The pupils<br />

received juggling balls as a reward for completing the<br />

first three weeks of the Rotary Healthy Heroes Challenge.<br />

To complete the challenge, each day for nine weeks<br />

the pupils had to exercise for at least 30 minutes. This<br />

included walking or swimming. They also had to eat three<br />

vegetables, two pieces of fruit and get eight to 10 hours<br />

sleep each night. They had to read, listen to music, and try<br />

art. And they also had to help others at home, at school and<br />

in the community. Mrs Crooks said that it was a delight to<br />

see the children all involved in the programme.<br />

• By Fraser Walker-Pearce<br />

CHISNALLWOOD Intermediate<br />

has decided to go junk-food free<br />

this month.<br />

The school has joined more<br />

than 10,000 Kiwis signed up to<br />

fight cancer through Junk-Free<br />

<strong>June</strong>.<br />

Last week, the school held<br />

a community viewing of 2014<br />

documentary, That Sugar Film,<br />

as part of Junk-Free <strong>June</strong>, and<br />

asked parents to donate $1 for the<br />

screening.<br />

Chisnallwood physical education<br />

teacher Dan Vann said at the<br />

screening, there was lots of fun<br />

activities for the kids to do, as<br />

well as healthy treats.<br />

“There was lots of food that was<br />

prepared in a healthy way. Things<br />

like smoothies, toasties, and there<br />

was even a smoothie bike, where<br />

kids jumped on and when they<br />

pedalled, it blended the fruit,” he<br />

said.<br />

He said the aim of the screening<br />

wasn’t only to raise money<br />

for Junk-Free <strong>June</strong>, but to raise<br />

parents’ awareness of healthy<br />

foods, and hidden sugar in foods<br />

that kids eat.<br />

“Most of the staff are on board.<br />

They’ve signed up, but the main<br />

thing is trying to educate the kids<br />

. . . there’s a big misconception<br />

HEALTHY TREAT: Chisnallwood Intermediate pupils sold fruit<br />

salad as part of their Junk-Free <strong>June</strong> celebrations.<br />

that only junk food is bad for<br />

you,” Mr Vann said.<br />

He said the school hopes to<br />

raise about $1000 for Junk-Free<br />

<strong>June</strong>, in which the idea is to go a<br />

whole month without eating or<br />

drinking sugar-filled food and<br />

drink, while raising funds for<br />

cancer research.<br />

Mr Vann said it’s surprising<br />

how much sugar is in normal<br />

foods like Nutri-Grain and Up &<br />

Go breakfast drinks.<br />

“I’ve had a look at the average<br />

lunchbox of the kids at school,<br />

and I’ve kind of worked out their<br />

average amount of sugar intake in<br />

the day.<br />

“Surprisingly there was an<br />

average of about 62 teaspoons of<br />

sugar in that average lunchbox,”<br />

he said.<br />

Mr Vann said he put the high<br />

amount of sugar down to foods<br />

that “you wouldn’t expect to have<br />

sugar in”. Foods such as yoghurts,<br />

breakfast cereals, muesli bars,<br />

orange juice, and sauces.<br />

NEW SILVERWARE: Trampoline champions Jacob McGraw, 9, (left) and<br />

Ethan Field, 9, and talented gymnast Libby McDonald, 7, (right).<br />

Gym champions<br />

• By Fraser Walker-Pearce<br />

GYMNASTICS AND trampolining<br />

pupils from Marshland School mixed<br />

it up with the best in their age group<br />

at a recent national competition.<br />

Seven Marshland pupils attended<br />

the <strong>2016</strong> Otago artistic qualifying<br />

competition, a trampoline tournament,<br />

and the Dunedin Gymnastic<br />

Academy 1st junior competitions.<br />

Seven-year-old Marshland gymnast,<br />

Libby McDonald, won first place overall,<br />

second in the floor section, and<br />

second in the vault.<br />

Her gym team also finished second<br />

overall.<br />

Principal Jacqui Pascoe said it had<br />

been an “exciting weekend” for the<br />

pupils.<br />

“(It was) a very exciting weekend for<br />

a number of our Marshland children.<br />

In another competition, the Marshland<br />

School Tramp Team did incredibly<br />

well,” she said.<br />

In the trampoline competition,<br />

Jacob McGraw, 9, won the men’s<br />

B grade; Ethan Field, 9, gained silver<br />

in the men’s A grade; Isla Maclean, 9,<br />

also gained silver in the women’s A<br />

grade; Riley Field, 7, placed third in<br />

the men’s C grade; Brooke Robertson,<br />

6, was sixth in the women’s C grade;<br />

and Milly Robertson competed for<br />

the first time in women’s C grade.<br />

Mrs Pascoe said the scores gave<br />

Marshland a podium finish over the<br />

weekend.<br />

“With the top four scores combined,<br />

the Marshland School team came in<br />

second overall as well – outstanding,”<br />

she said.<br />

COMMUNITY HUB: Linwood College was the first school in Canterbury to host a<br />

mobile well-being unit, used to help the community build a relationship with police.<br />

It has been worked on for more than six months. Last week, the Linwood Well-being<br />

Mobile Hub made its debut appearance. The aim of the mobile unit is prevention. It will<br />

deliver important messages so every student and young person can reach their full<br />

potential. Mayor Lianne Dalziel also attended the opening.<br />

HELPING HANDS: Marshland School was<br />

full of colour last week, when volunteers<br />

planted a series of native flax in the<br />

school. With the help of the local Bunnings<br />

Warehouse Shirley on Wednesday, team<br />

members laid coconut matting and planted<br />

native flax plants in the water drains in front<br />

of the re-located school. The flax, which<br />

is one of New Zealand’s most distinctive<br />

native plants,, is particularly popular with tui,<br />

which feed on the nectar of its flowers.<br />

seedlings were planted during<br />

the Estuary Trust’s fourth<br />

restoration project, which took<br />

place in South New Brighton<br />

Park.<br />

After having established<br />

successful community restoration<br />

projects in Charlesworth<br />

wetland, McCormacks Bay wetland<br />

and Thistledown wetland<br />

reserves, the trust took to South<br />

New Brighton Park for another<br />

major restoration project.<br />

The Burwood-<strong>Pegasus</strong> Community<br />

Board gave the trust a<br />

grant for the purchase of 220 tree<br />

seedlings, which allowed a team<br />

of volunteers to head for the park<br />

to plant the seedlings near and<br />

around the park’s play ground.<br />

Estuary Trust co-ordinator<br />

Tanya Jenkins said the projects<br />

are about community involvement<br />

as much as improving the<br />

local landscape.<br />

“Our restoration projects are<br />

about encouraging local residents<br />

to become involved in taking<br />

positive actions to improve<br />

their local natural environment,”<br />

she said.<br />

She said local community<br />

members are welcome to join the<br />

small team of local volunteers on<br />

the first Sunday of every month<br />

between 2 and 4pm.<br />

Tools and gloves are provided<br />

so all volunteers need is to ensure<br />

they wear closed footwear<br />

and clothing suited to weather<br />

conditions on the day.<br />

EQC UPDATE KEEPING YOU INFORMED | JUNE <strong>2016</strong><br />

EQC begins settling ILV land damage claims<br />

Head of Canterbury Land Settlement for EQC,<br />

Keith Land<br />

The Earthquake Commission has begun<br />

settling claims for Increased Liquefaction<br />

Vulnerability (ILV) land damage.<br />

Keith Land, Head of Canterbury Land<br />

Settlement, says that the settlements will go to<br />

4,400 customers whose properties have<br />

qualified as having an increased vulnerability to<br />

liquefaction following the 2010-2011<br />

Canterbury earthquakes.<br />

“Each qualified property is being assessed and<br />

will be cash settled on a case-by-case basis as<br />

we have done to date with other forms of land<br />

damage resulting from these earthquakes.<br />

Similar to Increased Flooding Vulnerability (IFV)<br />

land damage, settlement of ILV land damage is<br />

a world-first. This type of land damage has not<br />

been covered by insurance anywhere else, so<br />

Fulbright-EQC Award recipient to study<br />

seismic performance of high-rise walls<br />

The Fulbright-EQC Graduate Award’s newest recipient, Alex Shegay,<br />

is looking into the reasons behind unexpected failures of reinforced<br />

concrete walls and ways in which performance can be improved.<br />

Mr Shegay, 24, has been granted the <strong>2016</strong> Fulbright-EQC Graduate<br />

Award in Natural Disaster Research and soon will be heading to the<br />

University of Washington on his exchange.<br />

In the US, he will research the seismic performance of high-rise structural<br />

walls and use experimental data to create validated computer models.<br />

The research will go towards his PhD in Structural/Earthquake<br />

Engineering at the University of Auckland.<br />

“Structural engineers have significant social responsibility to protect<br />

civilians even in the most devastating circumstances. The 2010/2011<br />

Canterbury Earthquakes were an example of one such catastrophic event,<br />

producing ground accelerations never before recorded in an urban<br />

environment.<br />

“Many concrete buildings in Christchurch that relied on reinforced<br />

concrete walls for seismic resistance were severely damaged to the<br />

point that it was fortunate to find them still standing. It’s crucial to learn<br />

from the Canterbury earthquakes and improve building design and<br />

construction practice.”<br />

considerable work was required to get the<br />

engineering and valuation methodologies<br />

right,” said Mr Land.<br />

“We want to make sure that the final settlements<br />

are based on a robust and appropriate<br />

settlement process so that customers can have<br />

confidence their claims for ILV land damage<br />

have been paid consistently and fairly.”<br />

EQC expects at least two thirds of ILV<br />

customers will receive settlements based on<br />

the reduction in their property’s market value<br />

caused by ILV, also known as Diminution of<br />

Value (DOV).<br />

“This is because generally, there are no<br />

available ground improvement methods to<br />

address ILV damage on a property where<br />

a house has remained in place since the<br />

earthquakes,” says Mr Land.<br />

The remaining third of ILV customers are being<br />

assessed for a settlement based on the cost to<br />

repair the ILV land damage. This will generally<br />

be in situations where the house has already<br />

been, or will be, rebuilt or removed due to the<br />

earthquake damage.”<br />

Customers receiving a ‘cost to repair’<br />

settlement will be individually case-managed,<br />

as the situation for each of them varies. Before<br />

it can be confirmed that these customers will<br />

receive a repair cost settlement, more<br />

information is needed to understand their<br />

property’s current situation.<br />

Mr Land says that settlements for DOV<br />

customers began this month and EQC also<br />

started contacting repair cost customers.<br />

EQC has resolved nearly 90% of properties<br />

with land claims resulting from 2010-2011<br />

Canterbury earthquakes, and expects to<br />

resolve the remainder of the land programme<br />

by the end of <strong>2016</strong>.<br />

EQC will also hold six ILV meetings from July to<br />

November for customers whose settlements are<br />

based on DOV. The purpose of the meetings is<br />

for customers to ask questions and hear from<br />

EQC and its valuers about what’s been involved<br />

in ILV settlement decisions.<br />

The Fulbright-EQC Graduate Award in Natural Disaster Research<br />

facilitates research that reduces and prevents natural disaster damage.<br />

It is part of $16 million granted by EQC each year to high quality research<br />

that builds knowledge about New Zealand’s natural disasters.<br />

Progress report<br />

on EQC remedial<br />

programme<br />

The Earthquake Commission has received 8,337<br />

remedial enquiries of which 2,<strong>21</strong>1 have been resolved<br />

as of 27 May <strong>2016</strong>. This leaves 6,126 enquiries<br />

remaining.<br />

The amount recorded as being spent on remedial work to<br />

May <strong>2016</strong> was $7,068,833. However it has not been possible<br />

to separate out all remedial costs from other work streams.<br />

The total cost of the remedial repairs will never be finally<br />

known until we have resolved all the outstanding claims.<br />

There are still a number of unknowns and it’s also too early<br />

to say exactly what the final figure will be for the remedial<br />

programme. However, EQC expects the final cost could be<br />

in the region of $60 million to $70 million, which is covered<br />

by our existing liability estimates. To put this estimate in<br />

context it would account for less than 3% of the approximate<br />

$2.5 billion cost of the Canterbury Home Repair Programme<br />

to date.<br />

The level of remedial work for the Canterbury Home<br />

Repair Programme is well within industry norms for the<br />

national construction sector.<br />

EQC has prioritised first time repairs, although it has carried<br />

out urgent remedial work for vulnerable customers or where<br />

the work is needed to make a house safe, secure and/or<br />

sanitary.<br />

Now that EQC is down to the last of the first time repairs,<br />

focus has increased on resolving remedials.<br />

EQC is confident it has the processes and teams in place to<br />

address the issues. EQC has been expanding the remedial<br />

team since September 2015 and more staff are being added<br />

as first time repairs near completion.<br />

EQC does not have a projected date to stop receiving<br />

remedial requests but will continue working with customers<br />

until their claims are resolved.<br />

One of the reasons for starting the Canterbury Home Repair<br />

Programme was to ensure customers would have the<br />

assurance that any issues with their earthquake repairs<br />

would be addressed.<br />

Currently around 100 remedial requests are being received<br />

a week.<br />

Customers can follow the progress of their<br />

claim through a series of EQC letters with a tick<br />

diagram. Each new tick means the customer<br />

is closer to receiving their settlement.<br />

Processing<br />

starts for<br />

Feb <strong>2016</strong><br />

quakes<br />

EQC aims to complete assessments<br />

more quickly for the February <strong>2016</strong><br />

Canterbury earthquake claims using<br />

customer-provided information for<br />

desk-based assessments.<br />

Onsite assessment visits to customers’<br />

properties will be the exception for cases<br />

where there is extensive damage, claims<br />

are complex or individual circumstances<br />

require it. EQC claim managers have<br />

been calling customers to get<br />

information and documents – such as<br />

specific damage measurements and<br />

photos – before deciding whether a<br />

phone or on-site assessment works best.<br />

Claims processing is well underway<br />

with over 685 claims paid so far out of<br />

the total 13,134 received. Priority is<br />

given to vulnerable customers, followed<br />

by claims in the order in which they<br />

were lodged.<br />

“Customers who have had their claims<br />

settled so far have told us that the new<br />

approach is working better for them.<br />

Before starting to settle claims, EQC<br />

proactively talked with customers about<br />

different ways of doing things, using<br />

their feedback to design our approach<br />

for this event,” says EQC Manager of<br />

the February <strong>2016</strong> Event, Jayne Lapin.<br />

“Most of the damage suffered is<br />

cosmetic, so EQC won’t manage a repair<br />

programme this time but, customers<br />

who need assistance to organise repairs,<br />

can contact our Community Contact<br />

Team in Christchurch. The team has<br />

strong links with support agencies who<br />

can help. Call EQC on 0800 DAMAGE<br />

(0800 326 243) to book an appointment<br />

with the Community Contact Team, if<br />

support is needed.<br />

“For customers whose 2010/2011<br />

Canterbury earthquake claims are still<br />

open, EQC aims to resolve their February<br />

<strong>2016</strong> claim together with their<br />

2010/2011 claims. We want to make<br />

sure all outstanding issues for their<br />

properties are on track for resolution by<br />

the end of <strong>2016</strong>,” Ms Lapin says.<br />

At this stage, EQC expects to resolve<br />

the majority of February <strong>2016</strong><br />

earthquake claims by the end of<br />

December <strong>2016</strong>.<br />

Menes’ honoured<br />

• By Fraser Walker-Pearce<br />

TWO VOLUNTEERS that saved<br />

Rawhiti Golf Club from closing<br />

have been recognised at a recent<br />

region-wide awards dinner.<br />

Mene and Sally Mene attended<br />

the Canterbury Golf Annual<br />

Awards dinner, held recently<br />

at Russley Golf Club, with the<br />

mind-set of being the “small club<br />

supporting the big boys”.<br />

But, by the end of the night,<br />

Mr and Mrs Mene were on stage,<br />

being jointly presented the Volunteers<br />

of the Year award.<br />

About 175 people attended the<br />

evening, which saw awards presented,<br />

stories shared, and a talk<br />

from guest speaker, Greg Turner.<br />

“We received the award on Friday,<br />

so we were celebrating at the<br />

club on Sunday,” Mr Mene said.<br />

He said there were so many<br />

“great volunteers” as finalists, so<br />

it came as a shock when they were<br />

called up.<br />

“I was quite surprised. Sally is<br />

the club’s administrator, and I<br />

he gave a speech “on behalf of the<br />

club and of eastern residents”.<br />

He said his wife was the one<br />

who dealt directly with the city<br />

council, during the period of time<br />

in 2014 when it was thought the<br />

club would close.<br />

“Sally was always involved with<br />

the communications between the<br />

club and the city council when we<br />

were fighting to keep it. She really<br />

showed off to the city council<br />

what we had done to retain the<br />

course,” he said.<br />

A FORMER Shirley Boys’<br />

High School head boy and dux<br />

has continued along the highachieving<br />

path by being named<br />

Canterbury University’s top<br />

law graduate.<br />

Tim Bain was head boy at<br />

Shirley Boys’ in 2009 and,<br />

more recently, received a gold<br />

medal in recognition of being<br />

Canterbury’s top law graduate.<br />

Shirley Boys’ headmaster<br />

John Laurenson said Mr Bain<br />

had always been a high-flyer<br />

and noted that he joined<br />

the school as the top academic<br />

entrant back in 2005.<br />

Not only this, but he was also<br />

awarded five scholarships during<br />

his time at Shirley Boys’.<br />

One was for biology, which he<br />

achieved in year 12.<br />

Mr Laurenson said the<br />

ACHIEVERS<br />

Head of the class<br />

granting of level 4 (university<br />

level) scholarships are given<br />

to the top one to two per cent<br />

of students throughout New<br />

Zealand.<br />

Another of Mr Bain’s<br />

successes was when he led the<br />

debating team to victory in the<br />

Press Cup Debating Challenge<br />

in 2009.<br />

Since then, Mr Bain has<br />

completed LLB honours.<br />

The top law graduate award<br />

is not given out every year, and<br />

is only awarded when a student<br />

is considered to have achieved<br />

the level of academic excellence<br />

worthy of such recognition.<br />

Mr Bain is currently working<br />

in Wellington as a judge’s clerk<br />

to chief justice Dame Sian Elias.<br />

Mr Laurenson said he thought<br />

Mr Bain would “end up in<br />

politics”.<br />

Reading to Dogs<br />

Every Tuesday, 3.30-4.30pm<br />

Many children have difficulties<br />

reading and become self conscious<br />

when reading in front of<br />

their peers. Libraries and schools<br />

around the world have found that<br />

by sitting down and reading to<br />

a friendly dog, a child’s fear of<br />

being judged or laughed at ‘over<br />

mistakes’ disappears. Over time,<br />

the child’s reading ability and<br />

self-confidence improves and<br />

they begin to associate reading<br />

with a pleasant experience.<br />

Fighting prejudice<br />

• By Donna Miles<br />

BREAKING PREJUDICES: Nada Tawfeek and her mother<br />

Dalia Mohamed are volunteers at the Islamic Women’s<br />

Council New Zealand.<br />

CLOSE TO 40 different ethnic<br />

groups represent the Muslim<br />

community in the city.<br />

Community worker Dr<br />

Husaini Hafiz said that the<br />

city’s 3250 Muslims did not<br />

suffer from the same levels of<br />

Islamophobia experienced by<br />

Muslims in Europe and the<br />

United States, but racial and<br />

religious prejudices can exist<br />

everywhere.<br />

Dr Hafiz said the Canterbury<br />

Muslim Community<br />

Trust is building cultural and<br />

religious bridges by reaching<br />

out to the city’s Muslims and<br />

the wider non-Muslim community.<br />

“We would like to ensure<br />

that Christchurch remains a<br />

good place to live for all, which<br />

means taking steps to foster<br />

better understanding between<br />

different groups,” he said.<br />

Dr Hafiz said many people<br />

assumed that the Muslim community<br />

in Christchurch was<br />

homogenous with the same<br />

cultural practices and religious<br />

beliefs.<br />

He said, in reality, the Muslim<br />

community in Christchurch<br />

was very diverse.<br />

The trust’s outreach programmes<br />

are run jointly with<br />

the Islamic Women’s Council<br />

New Zealand.<br />

ICWNZ member Denise<br />

Jeager said the inclusion<br />

of Muslim women in the<br />

outreach programme was essential<br />

to show Muslim women<br />

had a voice and they were willing<br />

to exercise it.<br />

ICWNZ volunteer Nada<br />

Tawfeek said the outreach programme<br />

was useful to bring<br />

about more open-minded<br />

views of Muslim women.<br />

“Some people were surprised<br />

to hear a girl in hijab speak<br />

with a British accent,” she said.<br />

Dr Hafiz said focus groups<br />

run in Canterbury had<br />

identified three common<br />

concerns amongst Muslims in<br />

Christchurch: leadership, communication<br />

and lack of Islamic<br />

knowledge.<br />

One of the trust’s goals<br />

was to address the need for<br />

stronger communication channels<br />

between Muslims and<br />

non-Muslim communities.<br />

Last July, the trust invited<br />

students from New Zealand<br />

Broadcasting School to join in<br />

the breaking of fast at the Al-<br />

Noor mosque in Christchurch.<br />

The invitation was a followup<br />

to an earlier educational<br />

session where the students<br />

were introduced to basic concepts<br />

of Islam and the impact<br />

of the media on Muslims.<br />

This year a similar educational<br />

session was offered to<br />

student journalists at the University<br />

of Canterbury and Ara<br />

Institute of Canterbury.<br />

Office of Ethnic Communities’<br />

general manager, Maarten<br />

Quivooy, said organisations<br />

such as the Canterbury Muslim<br />

Trust play a “vital role”<br />

in educating and supporting<br />

New Zealanders to embrace<br />

and celebrate the benefits that<br />

diversity brings to us all.”<br />

Earthquake<br />

amputee<br />

given gift<br />

THE LIONS Club of New Brighton<br />

has presented a survivor of the<br />

February 2011 earthquake with a<br />

cheque for $500.<br />

Stacey Herbert had both legs amputated<br />

just below the hips after she was<br />

crushed under a pile of concrete and<br />

steel for eight hours in The Press building<br />

in Cathedral Square on February<br />

22, 2011.<br />

After a long period of recovering, six<br />

months ago she made contact with the<br />

Hanger Clinic in Oklahoma, United<br />

States.<br />

The clinic specialises in creating<br />

computerised legs, known as C-legs,<br />

with unique sockets for amputees,<br />

such as soldiers who lost limbs.<br />

Travel, the prosthesis and rehabilitation<br />

will cost in excess of $150,000<br />

after ACC funded a knee prosthesis<br />

only.<br />

The process will take several<br />

months. This time next year, she hopes<br />

to be able to put on her C-legs, walk<br />

through a mall and “blend in”.<br />

Until she is independent again, she<br />

is residing with her parents.<br />

While many will acknowledge Ms<br />

Herbert has been badly let down, it<br />

would be a waste of valuable resources<br />

to fight ACC.<br />

Have you checked your<br />

underfloor repairs?<br />

This is the sort of ‘repair’ by both<br />

EQC and insurers we are finding.<br />

SPORTS<br />

BIG Win: Carisbrook To’omalatai (left), Zeke Dyson (center), Oli Jager (right) with<br />

the DCL Shield after defeating Lincoln University.<br />

Bonus for New Brighton<br />

• By Gordon Findlater<br />

NEW BRIGHTON Club’s<br />

Bernie Smith has ticked off<br />

something from his bucket<br />

list – playing against twotime<br />

defending darts world<br />

champion Gary Anderson.<br />

Smith took on the eventual<br />

winner of the event in<br />

Friday night’s first round.<br />

Smith was no match for<br />

Anderson. Smith lost 6-2.<br />

Smith’s performance was<br />

THERE’S BEEN extra<br />

reward for a trio of New<br />

Brighton’s Hawkins Cup<br />

winning squad.<br />

Three players from the<br />

club have been named in<br />

Canterbury coach Scott<br />

Robertson’s initial widertraining<br />

squad for this<br />

year’s national provincial<br />

championship.<br />

Open-side flanker Billy<br />

Harmon, tight head prop<br />

Oli Jager and utility prop<br />

Carisbrook To’omalatai<br />

will assemble with the rest<br />

of the 28-man squad at the<br />

end of the month to push<br />

their case for selection in<br />

this year’s NPC.<br />

The three players come<br />

from a range of different<br />

backgrounds.<br />

Carisbrook To’omalatai<br />

moved to Christchurch<br />

from Timaru three years<br />

ago, he played his secondary<br />

school rugby for<br />

Roncalli College.<br />

His father Stan played<br />

hooker for Samoa at the<br />

1991 Rugby World Cup.<br />

He also represented<br />

Otago, hence his son’s<br />

name, Carisbrook.<br />

The nod to his father’s<br />

rugby career in<br />

To’omalatai’s name doesn’t<br />

end there. Gordon Hunter<br />

coached Stan To’omalatai<br />

during his time at Otago.<br />

Carisbrook’s middle name<br />

is Gordon.<br />

Having made Canterbury’s<br />

initial training<br />

squad, the chances of<br />

To’omalatai going on<br />

to replicate his dad and<br />

play provincial rugby in<br />

New Zealand are looking<br />

strong.<br />

“It came as a bit of a<br />

suprise, i never really<br />

looked on the internet. I<br />

got texts from mates saying<br />

congratulations,” said<br />

To’omalatai.<br />

Oli Jager’s background<br />

stretches to the other side<br />

of the globe. Jager grew<br />

up in Dublin, Ireland.<br />

He played for Ireland at<br />

school boy level, represting<br />

his country in the<br />

under-18 European championship.<br />

Jager moved to<br />

Christchurch three years<br />

ago and is now in his<br />

second season playing first<br />

division metro rugby.<br />

“I wanted to get a taste<br />

of New Zealand rugby. I<br />

came at the end of 2013 to<br />

play for the colts and never<br />

really left,” said Jager.<br />

Billy Harmon has been a<br />

mainstay at New Brighton,<br />

making his way right<br />

through the junior ranks<br />

before playing at secondary<br />

school level for St<br />

Bede’s. He’s since returned<br />

to his home club.<br />

New Brighton recently<br />

captured the Hawkins<br />

Cup, winning the roundrobin<br />

phase of the metro<br />

competition.<br />

It’s the first time they<br />

have won the competition<br />

since 2010.<br />

“We did what we needed<br />

to. The guys weren’t too<br />

worried about the other<br />

game. It’s pretty rare for<br />

New Brighton to be winning<br />

trophys, we’ve got<br />

a good thing going and<br />

were punching above our<br />

weight,” said New Brighton<br />

coach Scott Pawson.<br />

The job isn’t over yet for<br />

the club. Coach Scott Pawson’s<br />

initial objective for<br />

the season was to ensure<br />

they finish in the top-six<br />

after round-robin play,<br />

qualifying for a crack at<br />

the end of the year at the<br />

Hawkins Trophy, which<br />

they side last won in 2013.<br />

Taking on the best<br />

easily one of the best from<br />

the Australasian contingent.<br />

Smith’s three-dart<br />

average of 83.83 was the<br />

third best of the qualifiers.<br />

He also hit two 180s, more<br />

than any other Australasian<br />

player.<br />

On <strong>June</strong> 13, he claimed<br />

the penultimate Australasian<br />

qualifying spot,<br />

assuring him a first-round<br />

match against one of the<br />

world’s top eight players.<br />

Smith said he has always<br />

wanted to play against<br />

Anderson – and on<br />

Thursday that became a<br />

reality.<br />

When the first round<br />

was drawn. Gary Anderson’s<br />

name was the first<br />

to come out of the hat. An<br />

Australasian qualifier was<br />

then selected, and Smith’s<br />

name was pulled out,<br />

setting up the fairy tale<br />

match.<br />

HOME & HEATING<br />

Get rid of dampness<br />

in your house<br />

noW WITH the colder and wetter weather on its<br />

way, home owners are focusing on ways to make<br />

their homes comfortable, warm and healthy for<br />

their families throughout winter. rISIng DAMP<br />

is an issue that affects many of our older properties<br />

which suffer from poor, or no, insulation. In<br />

Canterbury especially, post-quake, many people<br />

have relocated to homes that suffer from rising<br />

damp which can be associated with health<br />

problems. Independent tests have shown that<br />

up to 40 litres of water can rise from the ground<br />

and enter a house every day, leading to mildew,<br />

mould, condensation and musty smells. Moulds<br />

can produce various allergic reactions and the frail,<br />

elderly and very young are especially vulnerable.<br />

Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd is a locally<br />

owned and operated firm. The team understands<br />

the problems caused by rising damp and are there<br />

to help. They will come to your damp home and<br />

pump a lightweight, flowable foam concrete under<br />

your timber floored home. Specially adapted for<br />

our new Zealand conditions and applications<br />

it provides a layer of protection against rising<br />

moisture. An unexpected benefit that the team at<br />

Canterbury Foam Concrete have noticed recently,<br />

is that many owners of properties which had<br />

underfloor foam concrete installed, reported that it<br />

also provided protection against liquefaction after<br />

the earthquakes.<br />

Contact Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd now for<br />

your free, no obligation quote and complimentary<br />

To enSure the quality of your air, contact<br />

the experts. Smooth-Air Products can calculate<br />

the required air exchange for your building<br />

requirement. Smooth-Air offers a wide range of<br />

ventilation equipment, from air vents to ducting<br />

for fans, for both the commercial and domestic<br />

markets. They have an extensive range of fans<br />

and ventilation components in-store but they<br />

can also provide innovative solutions tailored to<br />

differing requirements.<br />

VenTILATIon<br />

This includes both the exchange of air to the<br />

outside as well as circulation of air within the<br />

building. It is one of the most important factors<br />

for maintaining acceptable indoor air quality in<br />

buildings.<br />

Filtered air supply for summer and filtered<br />

and warmed air in winter creates a healthy<br />

environment in which to live and work. In case<br />

of poor or insufficient air intake from outside,<br />

the oxygen content decreases, humidity and<br />

dustiness levels increase. If exhaust ventilation<br />

is not provided or it is not effective, polluted air,<br />

smells, humidity and harmful substances are not<br />

removed.<br />

Low oxygen with high carbon dioxide causes<br />

stuffiness in the room and occupants can feel<br />

drowsy. Invisible harmful substances like a<br />

high content of dust and tobacco smoke are<br />

harmful and can cause various diseases. even<br />

bad smells can cause discomfort or irritate the<br />

nervous system. In summer, it’s easy to open<br />

windows for cross ventilation, however as winter<br />

approaches, we start to shut up out houses to<br />

trap in the heat and as a result, air quality can<br />

decline.<br />

It is therefore very important to ensure good<br />

air quality indoors through adequate ventilation.<br />

Ara nurses remain in demand<br />

ExcEllEnt EmploymEnt prospects<br />

and a variety of career options continues<br />

to attract talented students to the world of<br />

nursing.<br />

At Ara Institute of canterbury (formerly<br />

cpIt), the institute’s nursing programme<br />

is highly-regarded. In fact, 90% of nursing<br />

graduates find employment after graduation<br />

– that’s new Zealand’s highest nursing<br />

graduate employment rate. Ara prides itself<br />

on consistently reaching the top place.<br />

So what makes Ara nursing graduates so<br />

employable?<br />

years of experience in delivering nursing<br />

training, along with great facilities and<br />

expert tutors, is the first key to success.<br />

Secondly, the institute works closely with<br />

the health sector to ensure that the training<br />

aligns with what is needed on the ground<br />

in the region’s hospital wards, community<br />

health centres and aged care facilities. Ara<br />

continues to develop innovative work-based<br />

training that help prepare graduate nurses<br />

for the real world of work.<br />

Executive Director of nursing at<br />

canterbury District Health Board (cDHB)<br />

mary Gordon says the sector is closely<br />

involved with nursing training at Ara<br />

providing clinical placements for nursing<br />

students, employing new graduate nurses<br />

across the canterbury health system,<br />

supporting nurses to undertake graduate<br />

and post graduate education. nurses within<br />

the canterbury health system are very<br />

committed to supporting the training and<br />

development of Ara nursing students. “These<br />

students are our future nursing workforce.<br />

They will be our future nursing educators<br />

and leaders who will be shaping the health<br />

system for the future.”<br />

Head of nursing at Ara, cathy Andrew,<br />

says nursing training is aligned to industry<br />

conditions and the demands of modern<br />

nursing. “We have excellent relationships<br />

with clinical agencies and work closely<br />

together to provide learning experiences<br />

that are positive for students. We are seen as<br />

national leaders in innovative clinical models<br />

of learning and regularly receive feedback<br />

that our graduates are actively recruited by<br />

employers throughout new Zealand.”<br />

march <strong>2016</strong> graduates of the Ara Bachelor<br />

of nursing programme achieved a 90.3%<br />

employment rate. They are out there working<br />

in the sector in a variety of roles across the<br />

spectrum of nursing including hospital<br />

wards, mental health, community health,<br />

aged care and emergency units.<br />

5 TIPS<br />

for optimal NutritioN<br />

The degree to which your body is<br />

nourished with optimal nutritional choices<br />

will have a profound effect on your overall<br />

health and wellbeing. It will influence your<br />

energy levels, your mental wellbeing, your<br />

ability to burn fat, and the strength of your<br />

immune system, among other things.<br />

One of the most outstanding figures in the<br />

history of medicine was the greek physician<br />

hippocrates. he sums up the importance of<br />

optimal nutrition choices in one line: “Let<br />

food be thy medicine and medicine be thy<br />

food.”<br />

With winter upon us, now is a great<br />

time to focus on increasing the number<br />

of positive choices when it comes to<br />

nourishing our bodies with great nutrition.<br />

Base yOur nuTrITIOnaL regIme<br />

arOund WhOLefOOds<br />

Think nuts, seeds, grains, fruits, vegetables,<br />

pulses and meat. make choices in these food<br />

groups that are as close to the original food<br />

as possible. This helps ensure the vitamins,<br />

minerals and other nutrients<br />

are still intact. for example, raw almonds<br />

instead of roasted and/or salted ones.<br />

ChOOse OrganIC<br />

Organic farming places the utmost<br />

importance on caring for the soil because it<br />

forms the basis for health, for all life forms.<br />

healthy soil encourages disease-resistant<br />

plants, which then transfers to the animals<br />

and people who consume those plants. By<br />

choosing organic, you are opting for food<br />

that has been grown without the use of<br />

synthetic pesticides and without the routine<br />

use of antibiotics.<br />

drInk WaTer<br />

your body can survive a surprisingly long<br />

time without food, but it won’t last more<br />

than a few days without water. Optimal<br />

hydration is critical to ensure our muscles<br />

and nerves function properly, and even mild<br />

dehydration can lead to feelings of lethargy.<br />

how much<br />

to drink? The answer is quite simple – drink<br />

until your wee is clear or almost clear. That’s<br />

an easy way to measure whether you’re<br />

getting enough.<br />

Take TIme TO pLan and prepare<br />

fOr eaTIng WeLL<br />

It takes time and preparation to change your<br />

habits. schedule out time to write shopping<br />

lists, shop for food and prepare meals. plan<br />

to eat before you shop to minimise the<br />

chance of giving in to temptation foods –<br />

or shop online to minimise even further.<br />

make bulk meals to freeze for busy nights<br />

and set aside time to prepare a packed<br />

lunch the night before. keep useful kitchen<br />

items in easy-to-reach places – for example,<br />

put the blender on the bench rather than<br />

in the cupboard so that healthy smoothie<br />

preparation is quick and easy.<br />

Change OnLy One smaLL ThIng<br />

aT a TIme<br />

you may feel overwhelmed by wondering<br />

where to start improving your nutrition.<br />

make one small, achievable change and once<br />

that becomes a habit (something you can<br />

do without a major effort), then focus on<br />

something else. small changes are the key to<br />

success. for example, instead of saying “I’m<br />

only going to eat wholefoods from now on<br />

and forever,” instead make your target more<br />

realistic such as, “I’m going to increase to<br />

eating at least four different vegetables per<br />

day, on at least five days every week.”<br />

FOCUS ON HEALTH<br />

Olive Leaf Extract<br />

Nature’s Extraordinary Immune Support<br />

As fAr ago as 1927 Doctors used olive leaf<br />

to reduce fevers and knock out malaria.<br />

scientists have discovered olive leaf contains<br />

powerful nutrients that directly interfere and<br />

even destroy nearly every type of disease<br />

causing micro-organisms including bacteria,<br />

fungi, mould, parasites, viruses and even<br />

yeast infections. As well as this olive leaf has<br />

immune enhancing benefits by activating<br />

immune cells that fight infection. for these<br />

reasons it has become a popular tonic herb<br />

that can be used to keep the immune system<br />

strong as well as when need to dramatically<br />

speed up recovery of conditions like colds<br />

and flu, pneumonia, tuberculosis, herpes,<br />

shingles, urinary infections, yeast infections,<br />

and much more. It has also been found<br />

beneficial for chronic fatigue syndrome,<br />

low energy levels, exotic and deadly tropical<br />

diseases, two types of leukaemia and even<br />

some cancers. In many chronic health<br />

conditions the immune system is run down<br />

and it is easy to have complications that are<br />

often life threatening. Olive leaf may be a<br />

safe and very effective option to boost the<br />

immune system and allow the body to have<br />

more energy to help heal itself.<br />

Olive leaf has also been found to be<br />

an effective cardiovascular tonic helping<br />

normalise high blood pressure, improve<br />

cholesterol quality, improve heartbeat<br />

It Is well known how important omega-3<br />

fatty acids are to good health. It is<br />

estimated most people don’t even get a<br />

third of the recommended omega-3 fatty<br />

acids on a weekly basis. Countries with a<br />

higher amounts of omega-3 in their diet<br />

are known to have lower cardiovascular<br />

disease and, in many cases, better overall<br />

health.<br />

recent research has shown inflammation<br />

to be a big part of disease and the ageing<br />

process.<br />

fish oil can help reduce inflammation by<br />

providing essential fatty acids required<br />

by the body to heal itself and maintain<br />

good health. Until now most fish oil<br />

only contained omega-3 fatty acids in<br />

triglyceride form. fish, however, naturally<br />

contain omega-3 in triglyceride and<br />

phospholipid form but until recently the<br />

phospholipid form was lost due to the<br />

manufacturing process.<br />

GO-Advanced Omega-PC sets new<br />

irregularities, and improve blood flow and<br />

vascular disorders.<br />

Olive leaf extract is so effective that too high<br />

a dose initially may make you feel worse. This<br />

is due to too many micro-organisms dying<br />

quicker than the body can process these dead<br />

organisms. This side effect can be minimized<br />

if you follow our protocol on dosage. Also<br />

drinking water and herbal teas especially<br />

raspberry leaf can be quite effective. further<br />

information on the amazing benefits of olive<br />

leaf and how it can be effectively used is<br />

available from our Medical Herbalist or our<br />

Natural Health Advisers at Marshall’s Health<br />

& Natural Therapy, 110 seaview road, New<br />

Brighton, Phone: 388-5757. We are Always<br />

Happy to Help!<br />

GO-Advanced Omega-PC<br />

standards in fish oil as it contains<br />

omega-3 attached to both triglycerides<br />

and phospholipids. studies have shown<br />

GO-Advanced Omega-PC to be far better<br />

absorbed, leading to increased levels of<br />

vital omega-3 fatty acids in the organs<br />

through giving the potential for more<br />

health benefits.<br />

GO-Advanced Omega-PC is produced<br />

from fresh wild deep sea cold water fish<br />

using a new advanced and more natural<br />

cold extraction process that better<br />

preserves the natural nutrient profile found<br />

in fish. It is manufactured to high GMP<br />

standards and is molecularly distilled to<br />

remove any containments, toxins and<br />

heavy metals.<br />

fish oil and its benefits is available from the<br />

NOT all FISH OIl IS CreaTed eQUal!<br />

ONLY GO OMEGA-PC retains the natural Phospholipids that have been shown to be so beneficial for Good<br />

Health BUT are lost in other brands of fish oil due to the less natural manufacturing processes used!<br />

GO-ADVANCED OMEGA-PC SETS NEW STANDARDS IN FISH OIL!<br />

Omega-3 fish oil normally contains the vital Omega-3 fatty acids in a triglyceride form. Fish however naturally<br />

contain Omega-3 in a triglyceride & phospholipid form but until recently the phospholipid form was lost due to the<br />

manufacturing process. GO OMEGA-PC is produced using a new more natural cold extraction process that better<br />

preserves the natural nutrient profile found in fish. Studies show GO OMEGA-PC offers superior absorption with<br />

increased omega-3 fatty acids in organs giving the potential for more health benefits.<br />

GO-ADVANCED OMEGA-PC OFFERS:<br />

• Superior absorption of vital Omega-3, as<br />

shown in research<br />

• Advanced new cold extraction better<br />

preserves the natural nutrient profile<br />

found in fish<br />

• Naturally contains phospholipids to<br />

support cellular health<br />

• Contains vitamin D3 to support immune,<br />

bone & cardiovascular health<br />

• Supports cardiovascular health - Countries with<br />

a higher Omega-3 intake have much lower rates<br />

of heart disease<br />
