Surf club a step closer 

to new beginning 

• By Fraser Walker-Pearce 

THE NEW Brighton Surf 

Lifesaving Club is a step closer to 

finally rebuilding its earthquakedamaged 

clubhouse. 

Club officials will meet soon 

with the city council’s Development 

Christchurch Ltd. 

DCL is holding $1 million for the 

rebuild of the clubrooms. 

The money was approved by the 

city council recently in the annual 

plan. 

Once DCL is happy with where 

the $1 million will be used and 

how it will be 

spent, it will release 

the funds for the 

rebuild. 

The club needs 

to raise between 

$750,000 to $1 million 

for the rebuild 

which could cost up 

to $3 million. 

Club president James Gaskell 

(above) said the money would be a 

huge boost for the club, and its ambitions 

of rebuilding their broken 

clubhouse. 

“It’s quite a big bit of money for 

us, insurance didn’t favour us too 

much in looking at the clubhouse 

. . . so it’s something we’re heavily 

dependent on,” he said. 

He said the club had already 

raised just under a third of the 

anticipated cost. 

“With what the club has in the 

bank at the moment, we’d be just 

under a third. 

“If we get this council funding, 

it will cover a third, and we’re now 

looking for a final third . . . I would 

say we’re looking at between $2.5 

to $3 million, for the whole project,” 

he said. 

Mr Gaskell said the club is now 

looking at preparing a feasibility 

report by August. 

The club will send the report to 

the Lotteries Commission, to “enhance 

the chances of securing” the 

extra funding needed to progress 

the project. 

The club is also asking local businesses, 

not-for-profit 

organisations, club members and 

residents in the area to put 

forward their ideas on why the club 

is important to New Brighton. 

“We know it’s really needed in 

our eyes, but it’s also about having 

that need backed up by the community 

. . . we want to build something 

great for the community,” he 

said. 

Mr Gaskell asked anyone with 

supporting or relevant information 

that will help the club’s rebuild to 

email info@newbrightonslsc.org.nz 

BIG BOOST: The New Brighton Surf Lifesaving Club may receive $1 million from the city 

council to go towards a new clubhouse.

Petrol thief tries to 

run attendant down 


A SERVICE station attendant 

had a lucky escape when a 

motorist who had stolen petrol 

allegedly tried to run him 

down. 

The incident happened 

recently at Mobil Wainoni 

when a motorist in a Mazda 

took off without paying for a 

full tank of petrol. 

The employee, only wanting 

to be called Saj, saw the man 

acting suspiciously in the 

forecourt and asked him 

to come inside after he had 

finished filling up his car so 

his face could be caught on the 

CCTV cameras. 

Saj told the man, whose 

credit card declined, that he 

could access an ATM at 

the Pak’nSave across the 

road. 

Mobil Wainoni owner Andrew 

Elliott said at that point 

Saj went outside to check the 

man’s car. 

“While he was across the 

road, Saj looked and saw there 

was two different number 

plates on the car. 

“That’s when he became 

suspicious that it was a stolen 

car,” he said. 

When the man came back 

from the ATM, he did not go 

into the store, but rather into 

his car and began to drive 

away. 

“When the man returned 

from the Pak’nSave, he 

jumped in his car and Saj ran 

outside after him onto the 

footpath. The guy saw him, did 

a big u-turn and drove up onto 

the footpath, aiming for him. 

So Saj had to run behind the 

lamp post,” he said. 

The man skidded past the 

lamp post and drove away, 

leaving Saj unharmed, but 

shaken up. 

“I think (Saj) was just running 

out to get his attention, 

yelling ‘where are you going’ 

type of thing, rather than 

CLOSE CALL:

SLOAN 

actually chasing after him,” Mr 

Elliott said. 

He called the police immediately. 

“They’ve just logged it in 

their systems, and got the 

details. It’s a wait and see kind 

of thing. I mean he tried to run 

someone over, so he needs to 

be stopped,” he said. 

A police spokeswoman said 

they are “following lines of 

inquiry to locate the driver and 

the vehicle in question”. 

In Brief 

SERIAL BURGLAR 

Six properties around Bridge 

St in South New Brighton 

were targeted by burglars 

over the past two weeks. 

All properties were targeted 

between 9am and 5pm. 

Detective Sergeant Damon 

Wells said no one had been 

arrested in relation to the 

burglaries yet, but police are 

reviewing CCTV footage and 

awaiting the results of forensic 

evidence. 

MUFTI-MANIA 

New Brighton Catholic School 

was full of wacky hair and 

crazy socks on Friday – the 

last day of term. The school 

hosted a mufti-mania day, 

which saw lots of effort and 

creativity put into some new 

and different hair styles. Each 

year, the school puts on a 

mufti-day to support a special 

cause. This year money the 

raised will go to a school in 

the Solomon Islands. 

KERB REPAIRS 

A new storm water drain 

and repairs to the kerb and 

channel are part of an ongoing 

repair programme on Beach 

Rd in North New Brighton. 

The work is being undertaken 

by the Stronger Infrastructure 

Rebuild Team and is expected 

to finish on August 19.

The future of the 

FLAME FILES 

Coastal Ward 

Dean Lester, The 

People’s Choice 

candidate for the 

Coastal Ward in 

October’s local 

body elections, 

talks about the 

need for looking forward with 

practicality in mind. 

The new Coastal Ward is a jewel in 

our city. Stretching from Brooklands 

to Southshore, then west to Travis 

Wetland and east to the sea, it includes 

natural assets that are prized 

by all of us. 

We are recovering from a disaster 

– a recovery that will continue for 

many years to come – which has 

seen the jewel of this area lose some 

of its radiance and attraction. 

The focus now is generally about 

looking ahead, and we need to do 

so with reality-based planning that 

identifies and considers the resources 

of the community and determining 

what we can actually afford. 

We love the area that is the Coastal 

Ward because of its plentiful and 

easy access to natural habitat and 

landscapes. 

While human built enhancements 

over the years, such as QE II, the pier 

and salt water pools, have increased 

the number of leisure and recreational 

attractions, there is no greater 

reason to visit than to enjoy what 

mother nature has provided. 

Our physical and mental health 

improves because we can enjoy 

Spencer Park, Bottle Lake Forest 

Park, the expansive beach, or a stroll 

beside the estuary (yes, a walking 

path needs to be re-instated here). 

In our practical planning, we 

need to make sure we create a ‘fair 

go’ culture so that as many people 

as possible are given a voice and 

heard, not only the loudest and best 

organised, but those that speak in a 

whisper as well. 

There is no silver bullet that will 

come in the form of a singular concrete 

structure, and there shouldn’t 

be either, because we love and cherish 

the sea and natural environment 

in this part of paradise. 

We need a safe, accessible and 

clear way forward that is smart. And 

there isn’t a better place to consider 

and plan that than in the Coastal 

Ward. 

Look while you cook 

• By Mark Thomas – Fire Risk 

Management Officer 

I’VE SPENT much of the last 

week in the North Island. 

Firstly in Rotorua, where I 

visited the New Zealand Fire 

Service training facility for the 

first time. 

It is one extremely impressive 

complex, with full a 

number of buildings providing 

scenarios for training from 

cars to houses to commercial 

buildings, aircraft and ships. 

It’s a quantum leap from the 

bare concrete yard and tower 

that sufficed 35 years ago. 

While I was away, fire crews 

attended the normal range 

of incidents including, unsurprisingly, 

four kitchen fires. 

These ranged from an 

overcooked chicken breast in 

Dallington to a full house fire 

in Barbadoes St last Friday. 

I almost despair that the 

message, ‘keep looking while 

you’re cooking’ continues to 

be ignored by many in our 

community. 

The result can be life shattering. 

One of the features of fine 

days at this time of year is that 

the sun travels low in the sky. 

This provided a shock for 

the owner of a house in Hillmorton 

returning home just 

before 5pm on Tuesday. 

She found two cushions 

quietly smouldering away in 

her lounge. 

The setting sun was reflecting 

perfectly from a small concave 

mirror on to the couch. 

In this case she was lucky. 

She came home just in time. 

Electric fans today have an 

oscillating feature that widens 

the dispersal of air. 

A fan against a wall that 

prevented this movement in St 

Martins last week was found 

to be overheating. Again just 

in time. 

But another thing that can 

ruin your life.

Garden delights senses 


NEW BRIGHTON will soon 

become home to a sensory 

garden – a playground where 

children can experience nature 

first hand. 

The garden is intended to be a 

wheelchair accessible environment 

so that any child, able 

bodied or not, can take full advantage 

of the edible plants with 

differing textures and smells. 

Work may begin as soon as 

this weekend on the project, 

which was initiated by SmileDial 

New Zealand – a charity supporting 

families raising children 

with special needs. 

It will be constructed by the 

Stronger Christchurch Infrastructure 

Rebuild Team on a 23m 

by 43m plot of land in the New 

Brighton Community Garden. 

The installation alone is worth 

about $20,000. 

The initial idea came about 

through SmileDial New Zealand 

chief executive Kelly Dugan 

(below), who said it came to him 

more than three 

years ago. 

“I want to move 

away from the 

standard playground 

with swings 

and slides and all 

that, which are still cool. 

READY TO GO: The sensory garden will be built on a plot of 

land at the New Brighton Community Garden in Rawhiti Domain. 

“But I think that we’re 

getting a whole generation of 

kids who spend too little time 

outside playing with nature, 

climbing trees, and eating apples 

they pick off the tree,” Mr Dugan 

said. 

He drew inspiration for the 

project from his own daughter, 

Lucia, who has a disability but 

wants to experience things that 

everyone else does. 

“Usually when I take her to 

a park, she has to adapt to the 

environment in the park. What 

we’re doing is we’re creating a 

place that is adapted to her,” he 

said. 

Mr Dugan said that after work 

had gone into the garden, its 

overall value will be “significantly 

higher”. 

“If we take into consideration 

volunteer hours, donated goods, 

and labour, the overall financial 

value of the garden will be 

around $400,000. 

“The vast majority of that cost 

is covered by tradespeople donating 

their time, along with companies 

donating their gardening 

products free of charge.” 

BILINGUAL: Amiria and Matakaea Tikao helped supermarket 

customers celebrate Maori Language Week. 

Pupils teach Te Reo 

TWO PUPILS – one from Shirley 

Intermediate and the other from 

St Albans School – were the 

voices behind a supermarket 

initiative to celebrate Maori 

Language Week. 

Amiria Tikao, 12, and her 

younger sister Matakaea, 9, 

had their voices professionally 

recorded in a sound studio to 

help SuperValue and FreshChoice 

customers better understand the 

Maori language. 

The sisters were recorded pronouncing 

items such as apples, 

mushrooms, fish, milk, meat, 

kiwifruit and cheese, along with 

many others. 

Amiria said it was a fun project 

to be involved with. 

“It was really cool. It took about 

45mins, so not very long . . . we 

got most of the words first time, 

which was good,” she said. 

Local SuperValue and Fresh- 

Choice supermarkets then put 

posters up around their stores, 

with a QR code that customers 

could scan with their cell phone. 

The code led to a website where 

they could hear the two pupils 

correctly pronounce the word. 

Amiria said she had not yet 

tested out the posters, but she 

would think about going in later. 

SuperValue and FreshChoice 

brands manager Liz de Lange 

said that when the campaign was 

run last year, the QR codes were 

used thousands of times. 

Final countdown for SCIRT programme 

SCIRT’s five year programme of repairs to pipes, roads, bridges and retaining walls 

is now 91% complete and will finish in December. 

Almost 80% of our repair programme is focused on the city’s underground 

pipe networks. 

SCIRT has replaced 715km of pipes – the distance of a return trip between 

Christchurch and Dunedin. These pipes are now invisibly doing their important job 

below ground. 

Progress in your neighbourhood 

• We’re more than three-quarters through connecting homes in Aranui to the new resilient 

vacuum system. This will be completed in the next few months. 

• We’re more than halfway through the extensive repairs to the wastewater, storm water, 

fresh water and roading networks in Parklands. 

• The three-year programme of repairs to the wastewater, storm water, fresh water and roads 

in Burwood is due to finish in the next few months. 

• Work in North New Brighton is mostly complete. The rest of New Brighton will still 

see major works to the wastewater network and crews repairing small roading patches 

until December. 

• Your support is helping us to get the job done, thank you from the SCIRT team.

SCHOOLS 

Principals’ disaster recovery tour 

LINWOOD NORTH principal 

Sandra Smith is off to North 

America to learn how other 

schools have recovered from 

disasters. 

Ms Smith (right) was one of 

three principals, all 

from Christchurch, to 

be given the opportunity. 

The principals will 

travel to New Orleans, in the 

United States, and Toronto, 

Canada, to take part in two new 

training programmes. 

In New Orleans, the principals 

will learn about the city’s recovery 

10 years on from Hurricane 

Katrina. 

The disaster had a serious 

impact on children and their 

schools, especially in lower 

decile areas. 

They will visit schools in the 

Louisiana Recovery School 

District as well as Tulane University. 

The trip was made possible 

because of the school’s support 

for Canterbury University 

lecturer Kathleen Liberty, who 

specialises in research projects 

for junior pupils. 

SINGING TALENT: Holly Bowry (left), Ruby Allan, and Mia Ellicott 

were all picked for the Canterbury Special Choir. The three 

Queenspark School pupils are now training for the Christchurch 

Schools’ Music Festival, taking place in October at Horncastle 

Arena. Holly and Mia were picked for the junior section, and 

Ruby was picked for the senior section. More than 200 schoolaged 

children auditioned for the choir. 

ALL TOGETHER NOW: A combined 150 voices sang out from Shirley Intermediate School last 

week. The Shirley Area Music Festival included pupils’ from Waitakiri, Banks Avenue, Shirley 

Primary, and Shirley Intermediate schools, who came together to perform. The pupils sang 

classic songs from Les Miserables, The Sound of Music, Annie, and Oliver. They included 

numbers such as Food Glorious Food, and I’d Do Anything. The festival used to be held 

annually at Shirley Boys’ High until the February 22, 2011, earthquake damaged the school’s hall. 

It is still held annually, but is now performed at Shirley Intermediate.

Making great strides in 

rugby and academics 

SPORTS 

PROMISING young looseforward 

Tom Christie is 

working towards a professional 

rugby career and a job in civil 

engineering, thanks to the 

support of Crusaders partner 

Infor. 

Christie is in his first year at 

the Crusaders Academy, having 

captained Shirley Boys’ High 

School’s first XV in one of its 

most successful seasons last year. 

Under Christie’s captaincy, 

Shirley made the final of the UC 

Championship – the Crusadersregion 

secondary schools competition 

– for only the second time 

in the school’s history. 

He was also named the 

school’s sportsman of the year in 

2015 and made the New Zealand 

Secondary Schools’ squad. 

He is in his first year of an 

engineering degree at the University 

of Canterbury and hopes 

to do well enough to secure a 

spot in the civil engineering 

course from next year. 

“In a normal week, I’ll be at 

university from about 8am to 

5pm, Monday to Friday, with 

training at 6am two mornings a 

week before I head to uni. 

“Then in the evenings, I train 

as well with Canterbury under- 

19s on Mondays, club training 

on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and 

academy training on Wednesdays. 

Saturdays are full with 

games as well. So it is busy, but 

I enjoy what I have set up and I 

wouldn’t have it any other way,” 

he said.

BEAUTIFUL GAME: Two local sporting organisations hope to 

team-up to develop two new artificial football fields at QE II 

Park. 

New QE II turf mooted 

• By Gordon Findlater 

THE Celebration Lions 

Sports Trust is hoping to get 

permission to go ahead with a 

plan to install two new football 

pitches on a section of QE II 

Park. 

The planned development 

would be in partnership with 

Parklands United Sports Club. 

The two organisations have 

had an informal agreement over 

the past eight years, with the 

trust’s football teams playing 

under the Parklands United 

umbrella. 

The planned development 

would only use a small section 

of the QE II site and consist of 

two artificial football turfs, a 

grandstand and changing room 

facilities. 

“Parklands United are a club 

that’s growing. With around 

1000 members playing a number 

of sporting codes, there 

is a need for more facilities,” 

said the trust’s manager Corey 

Watkinson. 

The city council will decide 

the project’s future after the October 

elections, when work on a 

master plan for the future use of 

QE II will begin. 

“We’ve had several meetings 

with council. There’s a general 

openness, but we will have to 

wait to see what they do,” said 

Mr Watkinson. 

The project is expected to cost 

around $4 million.

PEGASUS POST 

Rebekah Head 

Diving deep into new role as 

The Little Mermaid will be visiting The Court Theatre 

as part of her big above-sea experience. Played by 

Rebekah Head, she spoke to Georgia O’Connor- 

Harding about playing mythical Maori character 

Pania of the Reef’s mermaid grand-daughter, living 

out of a suitcase and what she hopes to do next. 

Hey Rebekah, how have the 

rehearsals been going? 

It has been a fast rehearsal 

process but it is a lot of fun and 

laughs. There are three actors. 

Unlike me, the other two actors 

get to do a lot of costume 

changes and swapping between 

other roles so I have the easy job 

in that sense. 

How come the mermaid in 

this show is called PJ rather 

than the Princess Ariel we all 

know from Disney? 

The show, adapted by Alison 

Horsley, has incorporated the 

story of Pania of the Reef. There 

is a statue in Napier and she is 

part of Maori mythology. It is a 

New Zealand story. So PJ the 

mermaid is the grand-daughter 

of Pania of the Reef. It is definitely 

a more localised story. 

Have you grown up watching 

the Disney version of The Little 

Mermaid? 

EMERGING PERFORMER: Former NASDA student Rebekah 

Head is making her way in the performing arts industry in New 

Zealand. 

Definitely. Religiously. 

So how does it feel to be the 

mermaid of the show? 

It is very exciting and a bit 

nerve-racking because I think 

lots of people have The Little 

Mermaid in their head already. I 

am looking forward to creating 

my own version. Hopefully that 

is something people enjoy. 

How are you planning to portray 

yourself differently to The 

Little Mermaid we all know? 

Ariel was a large inspiration 

for the character but that is quite 

an American story so I have 

tried to make myself into more 

of a Kiwi mermaid. The wonderful 

work from the costume ladies 

has helped. The magnificent tails, 

with loads of sequins fellow actor 

Jane and I both wear, make it 

easy to take on the character. 

Following on from studying 

at Christchurch’s National 

Academy of Singing and Dramatic 

Art are you performing 

full-time? 

I am trying to perform fulltime 

but it is a bit tricky because 

performing jobs only last 

a month or two. You rehearse 

them for two weeks and then 

perform them for two weeks. I 

have been moving around Auckland, 

Christchurch and Hawke’s 

Bay in the last few months with 

various kids shows. Last year, I 

toured around New Zealand and 

Australia for a few months with 

the New Zealand Playhouse. 

Would touring Australia be 

the main highlight since leaving 

NASDA? 

Definitely touring Australia for 

10 months was a highlight. It was 

a crazy experience – I saw a lot 

of cool places. We started in 

Brisbane and went all the way 

across to Perth. We drove all 

the way, too. We performed 

high school and primary school 

shows. 

Our show for high schools was 

an adaptation of the Importance 

of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde. 

Our primary school show was 

called Jack Flash and the Jumping 

Beanstalk. They were 50 minute 

shows and they were performed 

three times a day. 

Do you ever get tired of the 

performing lifestyle? 

No, but the performing lifestyle 

is a specific one. I feel like 

I have spent the last two years 

living out of a suitcase, which 

perhaps isn’t everybody’s lifestyle 

choice, but I love it and won’t be 

stopping anytime soon. 

What was NASDA like because 

I hear it is tough? 

I think any performing school 

is tough. You learn a lot about 

yourself because it is a very vulnerable 

craft to be doing.

Maori-inspired little mermaid 

What did you learn about 

yourself? 

I suppose you learn how you 

behave as a person with other 

people when you are under a lot 

of pressure. There are quite a lot 

of time pressures at NASDA. A 

lot of creative art can’t be forced. 

You learn a lot when you are 

pushed to your limits. 

What do you enjoy about 

children’s shows compared to 

the other shows you have done? 

One of the most exciting 

things about children’s theatre 

is that children are the most 

honest audience members you 

are ever going to get. If they are 

not enjoying a show they will let 

you know because they will start 

moving around. It is exciting 

hearing all the things yelled out 

as well. 

What do you think about 

the relaxed performance for 

children, including those with 

an Autism Spectrum Condition 

or learning disability? 

I think it is wonderful they 

are making this show accessible 

for people who wouldn’t 

feel comfortable bringing their 

children to the theatre. Children 

are always yelling out different 

things so I don’t think it would 

be too different for us. 

CHILDREN’S THEATRE: Rebekah is no stranger to performing 

for children. Here she is in April playing Molly in Cops and 

Robbers. 

Tell me about the other performers 

in the show. 

In the Disney performance 

Eric is known as the Prince. But 

in our show, Isaac Pawson is 

playing a character called Dylan. 

But I wouldn’t really call him a 

prince. It is a modern tale of The 

Little Mermaid. He is just a cool 

guy who lives in Christchurch. 

Jane Leonard will be playing Pania 

of the Reef and Pania’s evil 

sister Kelpie. Pania of the Reef 

is a New Zealand character but 

Kelpie the evil twin has more of a 

Cruella De Vil type of vibe. 

So what’s next? 

After this I am going to go 

travelling to Europe for a month. 

I am starting off in London and 

then going to Barcelona. It is 

more of an overseas experience. 

I will be watching a lot of shows. 

I already have a lot booked at 

West End in London. I am going 

to Matilda The Musical, The 

Curious Incident of the Dog in 

the Night-Time, which The Court 

Theatre is doing next year. When 

I come home it will be back into 

the performing. 

Going to West End, are there 

any companies you dream of 

performing for in the future? 

The Court Theatre was something 

I have always hoped to perform 

[for] and I feel lucky to be 

performing with them, so hopefully 

again one day. I would also 

like to perform for the Auckland 

Theatre Company. Obviously, the 

West End would be an amazing 

dream come true but it is one in 

the distance. 

I saw in on your biography 

you are a member of Equity 

New Zealand? What is that all 

about? 

Basically, it is a union for actors 

– somewhere to go if they 

need help with sorting out contracts 

or finding out your rights 

as an actor. Just making sure you 

are looked after. They offer free 

workshops to actors to extend 

their performing skills. I think 

it is important to join this support 

system. It is also a wonderful 

way to stay connected with 

other actors in the industry. I 

have been a member for two 

years. 

And last but not least, why do 

you think people should come 

ABOVE THE SEA: Rebekah 

will play the role of The Little 

Mermaid in the upcoming 

production at The Court 

Theatre. 

to The Little Mermaid? 

It is a fun, funny show that has 

something for everyone. I am 

excited to be doing a kids show 

that has lots of songs in it as well. 

I think putting songs in a kids 

show creates a wonderful flow. 

It has been awesome working 

with Matt Everingham who 

has done all the music. All of us 

actors are ex-NASDA students 

which is cool. 

The Little Mermaid will run 

at The Court Theatre from July 

13-23.

Encouraging ExcEllEncE in our community 

The Principal’s Desk 

Students enjoying and sharing their learning is 

what i enjoy the most as Principal. This is evident 

in events such as school productions. our recent 

“Popstars the 90s Musical” production provided 

students an opportunity to step outside their 

comfort zone and perform in front of their peers, 

family, and community. i was amazed at the talent 

of our wonderful performers who sang those 

familiar 90s musical sounds. i take this opportunity 

to congratulate the cast, directors, and stagehands 

on their contribution to wonderful and successful 

Harry romana, 

Principal 

performances. i also congratulate our teachers and parents who helped 

with rehearsals, costumes, and props. Thank you to you all. 

Mairehau high School continues as a solid, viable co-educational school 

in the east of christchurch. We continue working with other schools, 

clusters, and community sector groups to develop a plan which will 

enhance the provision of education for all students in christchurch. all 

schools want students to access quality education outcomes, to access 

quality teaching, and quality learning. We can provide a friendly nurturing 

learning environment for all students. our students are our priority. 

Mairehau high School is in a strong position to offer students 

opportunities which will enable them to become decent, worthwhile 

citizens of the world, people who will contribute to their communities. 

Students who pass through our school gates, learn in our classrooms, 

and access technology through our wireless internet provision will be 

well set in the future. 

Future of Mairehau High School property 

Mairehau high School will be entering the ‘Master Planning building 

stage’ this July. The Ministry of education (Moe), school and community 

are expecting roll growth in the near future. as a school and community, 

we are planning for the growth in our school. 

The school has completed the Moe’s education Brief which provides 

a framework for Mairehau high School to develop and document our 

vision for delivering teaching and learning in the future and how that 

translates into a property solution that enables and supports Mairehau 

high School’s education vision. 

The government’s investment in Mairehau high School is most 

immediately a response to the earthquakes that have had a significant 

impact on our schools and community. at the same time, it is important 

that the educational community uses this unique investment wisely, 

to ensure re-building provides the best possible platform for effective 

teaching and learning into the future, informed by increasing knowledge 

about how children and young people learn and what they need to learn 

at school to prepare for their futures as connected, capable, life-long 

learners. 

i trust you are able to pass on to your friends and family, the opportunities 

that a co-education school such as Mairehau high School can provide 

for christchurch east. Thank you to everyone who attended our ‘open 

evening’ and braved the cold winter night. 

Harry Romana 

Principal. 

Open Evening 

Thank you to all those 

who attended our open 

evening on Tuesday 31 

May. Despite the cold and 

dreary weather, many 

prospective students 

and their families braved 

the elements to see and 

enjoy what our wonderful 

school has to offer. 

Many parents and 

members of our community commented on the helpfulness of our guides. it’s 

our students who know our school best, and it was wonderful to hear many of 

them telling prospective families their feelings towards our school; that they 

loved being part of a small, community school with a true family feel. 

if you missed our open evening for this year, please ring the office for a 2017 

Prospectus and we will gladly send it on to you. if you would like to discuss 

your child’s high school education with us, Mrs Shaw, the Principal’s secretary, 

will make the necessary appointment.

Smokefree Rockquest 

The rockquest regional heats 

were held on 21 May and there 

were excellent performances from 

our students. 

rebekah Williams was great in 

the solo section singing her own 

composition. New Year 9 group 

“heck i Don’t Know”, made up of 

ella Peoples, ancke hurter and Tammy reynard, performed especially well. 

‘indispute’, made up of Year 13 students lorne Joblin, Kaisie Van Dyk and 

Fale Polo were also fantastic and were 

selected for the rockquest regional 

Final which was held on 1 July. Sadly 

they didn’t move on from the regionals 

but Kaisie said it was a great experience 

and he was happy with getting as far as 

they did. 

Well done to you all.

Outdoor 

Education 

on Tuesday 7 June, the Senior outdoor education 

class embarked on an overnight adventure to Mt 

oxford. Faced with well-below-zero temperatures, 

the first thing on the agenda was to light a bonfire 

to keep us toasty – and the marshmallows of 

course! 

For dinner, students cooked spuds on the open 

fire – some were boiled, some were baked, and 

some made fries. 

after a chilly night in the tents, we were up 

at 5.30am for bacon, eggs, spaghetti and hot 

chocolate before we attempted to climb Mt 

oxford. By 8am, we were an hour into the climb 

and we had the most eerily warm weather – and 

we were stripping down the layers of clothing – 

even though we were standing in a few inches of 

snow. We made it half way up, and then Year 12 

student Dallas had a run-in with a tree (literally), 

and we decided it was best to make the tramp 

down to camp. By this stage we were in a foot 

of beautiful powdery snow – so we had an epic 

snow fight before we departed. although we 

were disappointed we could not continue to the 

summit, we had an awesome time and we look 

forward to our next adventure. 

Popstars - The 90’s Musical 

after 3 months of rehearsals, our drama production for 

2016, ‘PoPSTarS – the 90’s musical’ was presented to 

enthusiastic and welcoming audiences, both in the 

morning matinee and evening performances. 

The cast was brilliant, with a few new talents emerging 

and our ‘seasoned professionals’ stole the show with 

fantastic singing and acting. 

The production was very well supported by the 

community. Thank you to everyone who was involved. 

Year 12 students pitch in to 

help Christchurch community 

an area of wetland damaged by fire in 2014 was restored to its former glory with help from Mairehau 

high School students and the university of canterbury Volunteer army (SVa). in 2014, vandals drove a car 

into halswell Quarry, destroying an area of native planting before setting fire to a section of boardwalk. 

in March, Year 12 students Shilah Norman, Kodie North, and Madi Maxwell-Mcginn, alongside the uc 

SVa, took on the restoration project as part of the SVa’s uc volunteer programme, and in the space 

of a few hours transformed the wetland area. The uc programme encourages secondary students to 

become leaders in their communities through volunteering while being mentored by SVa members. 

Despite it being a rainy day the girls, 

and other students from christchurch 

schools, arrived eager to get to 

work. one crew set about rebuilding 

the damaged boardwalk, another 

group cleared around young native 

plantings and another group used 

bark mulch to restore the pathway. 

christchurch city council park rangers 

Nigel Morritt and robbie hewson 

worked alongside the volunteers. 

“The students were full of energy 

and enthusiasm for the project and 

were a credit to their schools and the 

organization”, they said.

buyer, with large bedrooms, second separate living and entertainment patio with beautifully 

established gardens and lawn - situated in the top neighbourhood suburb of Northwood.

Add-Value / Investment! 


Our out-of-town owner has purchased elsewhere, and consequently needs to sell-up urgently, 

providing this entry-level property, close to City. The perfect opportunity for a buyer to really add value 

and truly make their own, or purchase as an investment for rental income - with spacious bedrooms + 

wardrobes, large living areas, pellet-fire, entertainment deck all on a private fully fenced rear section.

Potential + Location! 


Our out of town owners have owned this investment property for more than 13 years and the time 

has come to pass the baton to a new owner. This two bedroom unit is well positioned for the sun, has 

a large lounge, great storage and enjoys a fully fenced front and back yard. While our owners have 

maintained this home it would benefit from some redecoration with potential to reap the rewards.

HEALTH & BEAUTY 

Tattoo removal specialists 

offer discreet professional service 

The TaTToo Removal Company is the first in Christchurch to 

specialise in the removal of tattoos, and removing clients’ unwanted 

tattoos is their sole focus. 

This family business has three 

technicians, male and female, who have 

undergone extensive training and are 

committed to ongoing professional 

training to maintain their skills. Coming 

from beauty, hairdressing and hospitality 

backgrounds, they love working with 

people and providing a friendly and totally 

professional service. 

for whatever reason you wish to remove 

your tattoo, the technicians provide a fast, 

effective, confidential and unprejudiced 

service in an exclusive, private environment. 

Whether you are having a full tattoo 

removal or lightening a tattoo for a cover-up 

with new art, during the initial consultation 

your technician will take the time to fully 

understand your needs, relevant medical 

history and the history of the tattoo in 

question so that you get the best service 

possible. 

The q-switch laser the technicians use 

removes tattoos effectively. The laser emits 

short, nanosecond energy pulses that 

penetrate the tissue and shatter particles of 

ink pigment into fragments, which are then 

eliminated via the lymphatic system. 

While there may be some slight discomfort, 

it is very brief. however, ice packs and 

numbing cream can be provided if required.

Customer testimonial 

“Coming from a professional work 

environment i was very conscious about 

keeping a business image. although at the 

time i had it done i thought it was amazing, 

my tattoo has now become a part of me that 

i hide. i had always wondered about getting 

it removed but thought it would be too 

expensive and painful. 

The Tattoo Removal Company has made 

this process very easy for me. Not only is 

the removal affordable it is no more painful 

than when i put it on. after one treatment 

the results were amazing and i highly 

recommend The Tattoo Removal Company 

– great service, great results.” - Jackie henry, 

licensed Real estate agent

remove your tattoo, the technicians 

provide a fast, effective, confidential 

and unprejudiced service in an

Winning ticket on Tui 

40 Tui Street, Fendalton 

Auction: 28 July 2016 unless sold prior 

4 bedrooms | 1 bathroom | 1 toilet | 2 living room | 1 car garage | Listing #: PI55813 

Rent, renovate or redevelop? This 

property could be your lucky ticket, 

with its mouthwatering array of 

opportunities for the savvy investor. 

Situated on a superb 1004sqm freehold corner 

site with a blue chip Fendalton address, the 

upside of this house and land couldn’t be sweeter. 

The substantial character home is presented in 

very tidy condition. Two generous living areas 

boast wood panelling and lead lights to excite the 

character lover, while the roomy separate kitchen 

is perfectly functional, but ripe for updating. 

There are four good bedrooms, and the bathroom 

is fresh and neat with a separate shower. A heat 

pump and log burner will keep family or tenants 

cosy. Outside, the section is fully fenced with a 

single garage and established gardens. 

Breathing new life into the home would be 

an enticing project, but others will be drawn 

to the possibilities presented by renting out the 

property while developing plans for a new build 

on the site. There is possibly even the potential 

to subdivide. Whichever way you look at it, the 

value is underpinned by a top location, in zone 

for Fendalton School, Boys’ High and Girls’ High. 

You’ve got to be in to win, so contact us today 

to find out more!
