Planning

concern

over

another

quake

• By Fraser Walker-Pearce

COMMUNITY leaders from

the eastern suburbs say they

wouldn’t know what to do

if another big earthquake

happened tomorrow.

At a meeting last Monday

night, Burwood-Pegasus Community

Board members said

they were unsure what their role

would be in the event of another

major natural disaster.

Board member Linda Stewart

said they were confused about

what actions to take during a

natural disaster. She said members

hadn’t had civil defence

training since 2013.

The role of a community

board member after a natural

disaster is to be a link between

the community and city council.

BACK WHEN I was a

reporter on the Pegasus Post,

many a year ago, I remember

writing about the hot salt

water pool concept. It was a

grand idea, but many felt in

the community that perhaps

it was another great idea that

would not eventuate.

Happily this week we have

an update on the project on

page 5, which organisations

are very cautious but

optimistic about.

A fascinating read on page

6 about Dr Kate Dewes who

is well-known for her fight to

keep New Zealand nuclearfree.

She talks to reporter

Caitlin Miles.

And finally we catch all the

fun during the final week of

the school holidays over on

page 9.

Aranui to get police team

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding

and Fraser Walker-Pearce

A NEIGHBOURHOOD

policing team will move to

Aranui in a bid to address

crime in the east.

The policing team has been

based in Riccarton for the

past five years, but will make

the move in October, due to a

higher crime rate in the eastern

suburbs.

Police say the team has

been successful in halving the

amount of burglaries since

the Riccarton Neighbourhood

Policing Team was established,

and have hopes the same result

will happen for the east.

A mobile police station will

be based in Aranui, which

means police can be on any

street at any time.

The team will finish its work

in Riccarton on October 1, and

then make

the move to

Aranui, New

Brighton Senior

Sergeant

Dave Robertson

(left)

said.

Acting Superintendent

Peter Cooper said although

the policing team is based in

Aranui, they may be back in

MOBILE: A neighbourhood policing team will make the move from Riccarton to Aranui in

October in an attempt to reduce crime.

Riccarton on occasions.

“We are reasonably confident

now. As always with these

policing neighbourhood teams,

they won’t stay forever. They are

a five-year commitment which

is up now,” he said.

Senior Sergeant Robertson

said police had discussed the

move “for some time”, and

decided there was a greater

need in Aranui than there was

in Riccarton.

“There’s definitely a higher

rate in the east and particularly

through that corridor from the

central city through Linwood

and Aranui,” he said.

Inspector Cooper said in

the meantime, there will still

be a community constable in

Riccarton along with other

police resources around the

area.

The neighbourhood policing

team was first formed as a three

to five-year project designed

to address underlying causes

around crime.

Senior Sergeant Robertson

said Riccarton will still be

looked after when the neighbourhood

team leaves.

“We’re definitely not abandoning

Riccarton at all, there

will still be community services

staff working in that area with

large organisations and the

mall,” he said.

In Brief

MORE MOWING

Donnell Park in Burwood has

gone from being mowed four times

a year to 32. Damage from the

earthquakes has seen a portion of

the park red-zoned, while the other

part of the park remains in the

green zone. City councillor Glenn

Livingstone said there has been a

lack of clarity over mowing issues.

At last week’s Burwood-Pegasus

Community Board meeting, the

board was updated on progress

made by city council staff, who

had changed the mowing contract

from informal to amenity. The park

will be mowed twice each a month

in July and August, and 11 times

between September and November.

CORRECTION

In May, the Pegasus Post reported

South Brighton Residents’

Association chairman Hugo

Kristinsson approved the process

by the city council to put together

an expert panel to review a coastal

hazards assessment. Mr Kristinsson

said while he was satisfied with

panel member Dr Deidre Hart, he

was unable to comment on other

experts. The article headline stated

‘Council earns praise for coastal

hazards process’, Mr Kristinsson

did not praise the city council for

its coastal hazards process. Mr

Kristinsson says the city council

process has taken too long, leaving

homeowners in limbo. The Pegasus

Post apologises for the error.

Continuing proud history

Shirley Boys’

High School

principal

John

Laurenson

talks about

the colocation

of

Shirley and

Avonside Girls’ High School

to the vacant QE II Park.

To say now is an exciting time

for Shirley Boys’ and Avonside

Girls’ High Schools is an understatement.

We now have confirmation

that our new schools will be

built at QE II. As many people

in Canterbury know, to have

certainty over your future after

many years of waiting is a wonderful

feeling.

But what is even better is

knowing that we have an opportunity

to create something

incredibly special and unique for

the city’s eastern residents.

This will be the first time

in New Zealand’s history that

two single sex schools will be

co-located. It’s a completely

new approach that is prompting

many questions from our communities.

Are the schools merging? Is

this a co-educational school?

Are they going to be called

Shirley and Avonside when they

won’t be in Shirley or Avonside?

What will the zone be?

The new campus will cost at

least $80 million and open in

time for the 2019 school year.

There is still a lot of work to take

place but already there are many

questions we can answer.

No – the schools are not merging,

there will be one campus

but two separate schools.

This is not a co-educational

school. The schools will continue

delivering quality single sex

education. That is really important

to us – single sex education

benefits both boys and girls.

What will be different is that

while our students will spend

most of their day in a single sex

environment, they will also have

opportunities to learn alongside

and interact with students from

our partner school. That brings

both social and educational

advantages. It is the best of both

worlds.

As for the names – yes, we

will still be Avonside Girls’ and

Shirley Boys’. Why? Because

we are two of Christchurch’s

oldest schools, our histories are

proud and we want to continue

our legacies. We may tweak the

names slightly to reflect our new

location – you’re welcome to

give us your thoughts on that.

In fact, you’re welcome to give

us your thoughts on anything

and to ask questions about the

new campus. We are holding

four community meetings so

you can do just that – come

along for a cuppa, it will be nice

to meet you.

Reader Allen Harbrow

responds to an article about

the Buckleys Rd bus stop in

last week’s Pegasus Post.

He says there needs to be

a rethink about bus routes

around the city.

I have just read your article

on bus stops, or lack of them at

Linwood and Northlands. I have

felt for a long time that we are not

well served with bus stops at our

malls.

In Australian malls, buses and

taxis take and pick-up customers

from within the mall car park

area at suitably placed shelters. At

The Palms and Eastgate Shopping

Centres, the bus services go in all

directions.

So if you want to take a bus into

the city, there are two or even

three different stops that you

could wait at, only to see a bus

that you could take, leaving from

one of the other stops.

NEW LOCATION ADVERT.pdf 1 1/05/2014 11:51:35 a.m.

I would suggest that the city

council and mall operators get

together to better co-ordinate the

bus service.

For example, there is no reason

why all buses passing Eastgate

including the Orbiter, could not

enter the parking area at the back

of the mall, from say Linwood

Ave and exit on to Buckleys Rd to

go in either direction.

A reasonable shelter could then

be built at the back of the mall for

passengers.

The Palms has less space for

buses to enter the car park area,

but if that mall is looking to expand,

city council should make it

conditional on creating a suitable

bus stop within the mall area. It

could enter or exit via Marshland

Rd and exiting Golf Links Rd or

vice versa, and this includes the

Orbiter.

Perhaps the new transport

committee could look at this.

Progress made on hot water pools

was not good enough.

“Who’s to know what will

Our People

PEGASUS POST

Memorable moments from nearly

Dr Kate Dewes has been fighting to keep New Zealand

nuclear-free since her early 20s. She spoke to reporter

Caitlin Miles about receiving threats for her work, sharing

a memorable moment with the United Nations secretary

general in 2011 and her plans to spend more time with

her family

Now that New Zealand has been

nuclear free for nearly 30 years,

can you tell me why you became

involved in nuclear disarmament

work?

It goes back to 1975. I was a

23-year-old music teacher at Epsom

Girls Grammar, and at the time I

was about to teach the girls a piece

of music dedicated to the survivors

of the atomic bomb that was

dropped on Hiroshima. I wanted to

learn who the victims were and what

happened to them and the aftermath

of it. I was horrified. I decided

I wanted to go back to university

and learn about peace studies and

nuclear disarmament.

Is that when you decided to

study in England?

No university in New Zealand was

offering a course in peace studies. So

I had to leave the country to be able

to do it. I went to Bradford University

to learn more about peace

talks, disarmament and what was

happening around the world. I lived

in Bradford while I studied and then

came back here.

Why did you decide to come

back to Christchurch?

Well, I had to. And I was pregnant

with my first daughter so I wanted

to settle back here. I also wanted to

be able to keep working on disarmament

and promoting peace talks

within Christchurch and the rest of

New Zealand. In 1979, I had my first

daughter and became a founding

member of the Peace Foundation.

I ran the Christchurch office from

home. I still do.

How was it balancing motherhood

and work?

It was tough. I have three

daughters and I was a solo mum so

there was a lot to do. It was really a

balancing act. I never had hired help

to look after my girls that was part

of my job. There were other woman

involved in the Peace Foundation

so we would take turns baby sitting

each others kids when we needed

to do things. I slowed down a bit

after the earthquakes, though. It was

more a case that I had to.

Why was that?

Our house in Riccarton was

damaged following the September

4, 2010, earthquake and all of my

work and the paper I had written on

nuclear disarmament, and my PhD

on peace issues, had to be put into

storage so they could be kept safe. It

MEMORABLE: Following the February 22, 2011, earthquake, UN

secretary general Ban Ki-moon told Dr Dewes that the people

of Christchurch had his support.

turned out to be about 120 banana

boxes of work. Funnily, they were

stored in the Air Force Museum

here in Christchurch.

You got some abuse for what you

were doing, can you tell me a bit

about that?

There were some people that were

against what we were doing. It was

the height of the cold war and we

wanted to educate people as to what

was going on. I was getting threatening

phone calls about being attacked

and some people even came to my

home. I remember a photo was

taken of me in the paper with one

of my daughters sitting on my lap

and someone said to me, ‘how dare

you travel and work internationally

when you have a family!’ I just

laugh about it. There was a group

that was against our idea of encouraging

schools to teach children

about peace settlements and things.

Someone from the group against

what we were doing spoke at a concerned

parents’ association meeting

in Hamilton. That’s where I am from

and my parents were in the audience.

During the person’s speech,

he called me a communist, not that

there was anything wrong with that,

but at the time that was a rather

weighted word. My parents were in

the audience, and my dad stood up

and said that I was his daughter and

he defended me. That was a really

big thing to do.

Were there many low points?

It was hard travelling internationally

and being a solo mum, but I did

it. When I wasn’t overseas, I worked

from home so I could manage.

What do you think are your really

big personal achievements?

Being a mother of three daughters

is a big personal achievement.

Getting my PhD was another one.

I was working, being a parent and

doing my PhD, so I’m really proud

of that.

30 years of nuclear resistance

POLITICAL INVOLVEMENT: Former Prime Minister David

Lange spoke to Dr Dewes about making New Zealand

nuclear-free and not allowing nuclear weapons to enter the

country.

What about moments when you

have had to pinch yourself?

There were a few pinch yourself

moments with all the people I have

met and things we have managed

to achieve. I was in the United

States when I got the news that the

February 22, 2011, earthquake hit.

I thought about the house; it didn’t

do well in the September-quake

so I was worried it would be gone

completely. I got all set to head back

to Christchurch and I called one of

my daughters and she said, ‘no mum

stay there, you have some important

things to do, you need to stay and

do it’. So I did. In the morning, I saw

pictures the New York Times had

of the Cathedral and then I had to

go and speak at the UN. We were

standing around before the discussion

started and someone must have

told the UN secretary general where

I was from and he came up to me

and shook my hand and said, ‘please

tell the people of Christchurch they

have my support’. Then he told the

whole audience at the UN where I

was from and what had happened to

my city. I couldn’t speak for several

moments. I saw what had happened

at home as an opportunity to get my

point across.

What was the point you were

making?

If we had a nuclear power centre

in Christchurch, the effect would

have been devastating. Especially if

a tsunami had come through. The

rest of the country would have been

in a really horrible situation. The

Japanese ambassador challenged me

on what I said. I had no idea several

weeks later I would be writing him

letters of support for what had happened

following the earthquake that

hit Japan.

Can you tell me a bit more about

your involvement with the United

Nations?

I was appointed to the UN Secretary

General’s Advisory Board

on Disarmament Matters as a

non-government member, which

was great because I could openly

say what I wanted and what I truly

thought and felt. They had to look

at things a little differently because I

made them. I was the only female on

the Government peace delegation

in 1988, too. I think that I presented

a really different perspective to the

men as well, which was refreshing.

I wasn’t paid for my work at the UN

though.

AT WORK: Dr Dewes marks on

a map the areas that support a

nuclear-free New Zealand.

How could you afford not to get

paid for your work?

The UN paid for my flights and

accommodation so that helped. I

also continued working from home.

I taught peace studies part-time at

Canterbury University so there was

a little bit of money. I re-married so

there was a wage coming in. What I

could go without, I did. But for me,

it wasn’t about the money. I got to sit

on the advisory board and provide

my input and opinions, which was

why I kept doing it.

How did you meet your second

husband?

I was in Geneva for work in 1992

and Robert Green was at the same

convention about peace talks and

nuclear development. Robert was

the chair of the United Kingdom

branch of the World Court Project

so I gradually got to know him. I

had to convince him to come to

New Zealand, as the Government

were looking at changing a clause to

the nuclear legislation, so I needed

to convince him to come to New

Zealand to speak and make sure

they didn’t change the legislation.

When he was in the navy, he carried

nuclear bombs so he knows what

he’s talking about and I wanted to

get him to share his information

with New Zealand. Soon I had

people sending me money to help

get him to New Zealand.

What do you think of Helen

Clark running for secretary general?

I think go Helen. I watched the

debate she was in recently and

thought she did really well. She has

the knowledge and experience for

the job and I think she would do

really well at it.

What are you setting your sights

on for the future?

Robert and I are trying to wind

down a bit now, that’s easier said

than done though. I would really

like to be able to spend more

time with my four grand-children,

too.

and Kindergarten

EQC UPDATE KEEPING YOU INFORMED | JULY 2016

February 2016

earthquake

response

With each natural disaster, EQC has increasingly listened

to customer feedback to improve how it works, says

EQC February 2016 Event Manager, Jayne Lapin.

“For the February 2016 earthquakes we are emailing a

survey to customers to complete two weeks after their claim

resolution to gauge potential areas for improvement.

To date, most customers have said their experience of the

new EQC process was positive or very positive,” she said.

EQC has taken a different approach to finalising the 13,985

claims lodged by customers following the Canterbury

earthquakes of 14 and 29 February, 2016, and the

aftershocks through March and June. To date EQC has paid

over $7.8 million to customers for damage claims.

EQC is reverting back to cash settlements as there is no

managed repair programme. EQC aims to complete

assessments for these events sooner, where possible,

using a claims management approach that EQC customers

helped design. EQC aims to resolve all claims for these

2016 Christchurch events by the end of December.

“One way to achieve this is by phoning customers to get all

the relevant information up front, before conducting

assessment. For many claims, damage assessment is done

over the phone. At its heart is the drive to make EQC easier

to do business with,” Miss Lapin says.

This differed from the 2010/2011 Canterbury claims, largely

because earthquake damage incurred in 2016 quakes was

minor. Customer payments are averaging $1,000 to $5,000

per claim. Only two claims were up to $50,000, and no

claims to date have gone over the EQC cap.

Seismic monitoring on Mt Ruapehu

Marking

GeoNet’s 15th

birthday

A message from Dr Hugh Cowan,

General Manager Reinsurance,

Research and Education

This month, GeoNet is celebrating its

15th anniversary. Most Cantabrians will be

familiar with the GeoNet app which provides

instant information about quakes and

volcanic activity.

GeoNet uses a network of over 600 sensors

across New Zealand to detect, analyse and

respond to earthquakes, volcanic activity

and other geological hazards. It was

established in 2001 as a collaboration

between EQC as investor and GNS as

technical manager.

Over the years, GeoNet has been recognised

internationally as at the leading edge of

natural hazards monitoring, which is a

significant bonus for New Zealand given the

dynamic nature of our region.

Canterbury’s proximity to the Alpine Fault

means that it has a large number of sensors.

The start of the Canterbury earthquake

sequence triggered further expansion of this

network, ultimately making the February

2011 earthquake one of the most

comprehensively recorded earthquakes in

urban history.

The quantity of GeoNet data has delivered

significant benefits for Canterbury, not least

in enabling decisions relating to building

reconstruction, engineering, the behaviour

of the land, and reinsurance to be informed

by science.

Such a wide range of applications in

Canterbury exemplifies the benefits of EQC’s

investment which requires GeoNet to make its

data publicly and freely available. GeoNet’s

growing and diverse community of users

extends well beyond EQC and GNS. Land

surveyors, airline pilots, power and water

companies and local government all use

GeoNet data in different ways.

EQC is proud to have maintained such a

long-term and successful partnership with

GNS, providing GeoNet with around $12m

a year. Late last year, we committed funding

through to 2021 as part of our research and

education programme.

EQC awarded

costs from

Action Group

The Earthquake Commission welcomes

the High Court’s recent costs decision

which orders the EQC Action Group to pay

costs of $4,237 to EQC.

The costs decision was issued following the

discontinuation of the Action Group’s

declaratory judgment application. The Action

Group sought a series of declarations in

relation to the obligations of the Commission

under the EQC Act.

Chief Executive Ian Simpson says the costs

decision reaffirms EQC’s position that

litigation was an unnecessary way to address

the specific issues concerning the Action

Group members’ claims.

Mr Simpson says that EQC remains completely

focussed on settling outstanding claims in

Canterbury including those of EQC Action

Group members. “Any customer can request a

review of their individual claim if they believe

EQC has missed earthquake damage

sustained to their home, if they don’t agree

with the proposed repair strategy, or if they

believe the settlement amount is incorrect.

The process for this is detailed on our website

and EQC continues to work with our

customers so they receive what they are

entitled to and have their claims resolved.”

Customers wanting to have their claim

reviewed can call 0800 326 243 (0800

DAMAGE) or email info@eqc.govt.nz or visit

www.eqc.govt.nz/about-eqc/makecomplaint.

In such situations you should

provide us with details supporting your

request for a claim review, together with any

information you have obtained in support of

your request.

Support agencies

EQC continues to work with customer advisory

agencies to progress the settlement of customer claims,

and answer customer queries.

ILV community

meetings on

EQC invites you to attend one of our community

meetings for homeowners who have received an

Increased Liquefaction Vulnerability (ILV) land

damage settlement based on Diminution of Value.

The 90-minute meetings will feature:

• a presentation by EQC’s Head of Canterbury

Land, Keith Land, on overall approach for

settling ILV land damage; and

• a presentation by EQC’s valuers, on the

valuation assessments which underpin EQC’s

settlement decisions.

The presentations will be followed by a Q&A

session, which will allow you to put questions to

the presenters. Please note that the meetings are

not intended for discussion of individual claims.

All meetings will be held at Beulah Church,

140 Springfield Rd, St Albans at 7pm on the

Christ’s too strong for Shirley

in top of table clash

AN IMPRESSIVE Christ’s

College unit were too much for

Shirley Boys’ High School on

Saturday.

The top of the table clash in

the UC Championship saw

Christ’s retain their lead with

a 33-10 bonus point win in the

championship.

Shirley, which came into the

weekend in third position, now

find themselves in a must win

position with just two rounds

remaining before the play-offs.

Christ’s first-five Nic Murray

broke the deadlock just five

minutes into the game, skipping

inside the Shirley defence from

15 metres out.

Five minutes later, Shirley’s

Jackson Taylor was charged

down inside his own half by

Christ’s flanker Daniel Freeman-

Greene.

The flanker backed up his

great charge by running onto

the ball and crossing the line to

make it 14-3 to the visitors.

Christ’s scored another try

before the half-time break with

lock, Ben Chamberlain, muscling

his way over in the left

corner.

Trailing 19-3 at the half-time

break, Shirley had to turn the

game around.

No 8 Cruz Topai Aveai didn’t

waste any time getting his team

back into the game.

Just two minutes into the half

the big man took a quick penalty

and barged his way over the

line from 10m out.

With the difference cut to

just nine, Shirley maintained

pressure for the next 10 minutes.

However, they were unable

to turn it into anything on the

scoreboard.

Christ’s grabbed two tries in

quick succession to kill off the

game.

Kale Thatcher and Isaiah

Punivai both crossing the line as

Christ’s racked up a 33-10 win.

Saturday’s loss means it’s not

going to be an easy run into the

finals for last year’s grand finalists,

Shirley.

They host fellow top-four contender

Waimea Combined and

then play Christchurch Boys’

High School in the last round of

the championship.

THERE WERE mixed results for

Canterbury teams at the under-15

and under-19 National Basketball

Championships.

The Canterbury A under-19 boys

had the best result, finishing second

at their four-day tournament in

Nelson after a 82-73 to Auckland

Counties-Manukau.

Canterbury A went unbeaten in

pool play before cruising into the

final. They defeated Wellington 84-

69 in the quarter-finals before doing

a demolition job on Otago in the

semi-final 94-46.

Canterbury Rams player Toby Gillooly

led all scorers with 26 points

in the semi-final win, while forward

Sam Lees had 21 points.

The under-19 boys took on

Auckland Counties-Manukau in the

competition final. The North Island

side held Canterbury to just nine

points in the second quarter to take

a 48-30 lead into half-time. Canterbury

came out with more effort in

the third, but were unable to pull in

the deficit.

The under-19 Canterbury boys

B team finished the tournament

in eighth and the under-19 girls

finished third.

Book now to have

new dentures

for Christmas

While it may seem too early to start

thinking about Christmas, anyone looking

at getting new dentures fitted before the

holiday season starts needs to book in

now, says Ryan Carlton of Dentures Plus

in innes Road.

Appointments are filling up over the

next few weeks, and as the process takes

several appointments over a few months

to complete, people are advised to get in

touch as soon as possible to ensure their

dentures are settled in by Christmas, Ryan

advises.

Patients can approach Dentures Plus

directly, who will either recommend a

dentist for teeth extraction or contact

the patient’s own dentist. The dentures

are made up before the dentist extracts

the teeth, as this helps the mouth heal

faster. The professional approach taken by

Ryan and his staff ensures that the whole

process of having dentures fitted goes as

smoothly as possible.

Ryan also advises that people with

existing dentures should have them

checked every two to three years to make

sure they are not starting to wear, which

could cause discomfort in the future. This

may not be noticeable to the wearer, Ryan

says, but a free, no-obligation check-up

will determine if the dentures need some

attention, or even replacing.

The team at Dentures Plus specialise

in all aspects of denture work – from

making and fitting for first-time wearers,

relining, which is done after the first few

months to make sure the new dentures

are fitting correctly, through to providing

dentures that clip on to implants, and full

replacement dentures.

They provide full follow-up care to

patients and also supply a range of

products for denture care. These include

denture cleaners, brushes and denture

baths for soaking the dentures. Ryan

recommends Caldent denture cleaner, as

it is non-abrasive and effectively removes

stains, calculus and plaque.

Dentures Plus, 396 innes Road, is

open Monday to Thursday 8am-5pm

and Friday 8am-2pm. to make an

appointment, phone 385 5517.

Ryan also advises that

people with existing

dentures should have

them checked every

two to three years sure

they are not starting

to wear, which could

cause discomfort

in the future.

PHIL'S NEW ALBUM

IS NEARLY HERE!

FOLLOWING on from his debut release, Stone & Wood,

Phil Doublet is set to release his second album, Endless

Highway.

"I can't tell you how exciting this is," exclaims Phil. "The new

album is nearly here, and the preparations for the album

launch marking its official release are underway."

Well recognised in country music circles both here and

overseas, Phil is an accomplished guitarist-vocalist who has

been developing his skills for almost 3 decades in concert,

studio and "just jamming around at home".

He has claimed many music awards over the years with his

most recent being Male Artist of the Year 2014 at the National

Country Music Awards.

A strong ambassador for original music, Phil is front man

for the regular local event, 'Songwriters in the Round'. Taking

place towards the end of each month at Alvarado's on Stevens

St, each round showcases three songwriters with acoustic

interpretations of their music.

Phil launches his new album Endless Highway at Kaiapoi

High School on Saturday 27th August

along with special guests The

Ranchsliders, Dani Rigby, and Lana

Doublet.

Tickets are available now exclusively

at Music Works, South City, Colombo

St. (cash only).
