Anti fast-food campaign<br />
calls for Brownlee’s support<br />
District plan<br />
change<br />
may be<br />
an option<br />
• By Tom Doudney<br />
A CAMPAIGN to stop fast<br />
food outlets proliferating<br />
around schools and low income<br />
areas may depend on support<br />
from Greater Christchurch<br />
Regeneration Minister Gerry<br />
Brownlee.<br />
City council<br />
staff briefed<br />
the Hagley-<br />
Ferrymead<br />
Community<br />
Board last<br />
week ahead of<br />
a deputation by<br />
Linwood community members<br />
and Port Hills MP Ruth Dyson<br />
to the city council on <strong>August</strong> 11.<br />
The group, which includes<br />
schools and doctors, want the<br />
city council to take action on the<br />
issue.<br />
A petition supporting the call,<br />
organised by Linwood resident<br />
Tracie Charnock, has received<br />
more than 600 signatures.<br />
Possible methods of tackling<br />
the matter include a bylaw, district<br />
plan change or national policy<br />
statement by the Government.<br />
City council solicitor Vivienne<br />
Wilson advised that creating<br />
a bylaw could be difficult and<br />
there were many questions that<br />
would have to be resolved, including<br />
how fast food stores and<br />
low socio-economic areas would<br />
be defined.<br />
“My job is try and keep the<br />
Special introductory offer<br />

council out of court and I have<br />
real concerns about that,” Ms<br />
Wilson said.<br />
“I have no doubt that if we try<br />
and do something novel and<br />
new with a bylaw, we will be<br />

challenged.”<br />
City council team leader<br />
policy Claire Bryant advised<br />
that the district plan had been<br />
finalised and, due to earthquake<br />
recovery legislation, it would<br />
now be difficult to make changes<br />
before 2021 unless Mr Brownlee<br />
ordered them.<br />
Community board<br />
chairwoman Sara Templeton<br />
said all options sounded<br />
“difficult and time consuming,<br />
which is a real concern” but<br />
the quickest way to get a result<br />
would probably be for the city<br />
council to ask Mr Brownlee to<br />
make the district plan changes.<br />
However, she believed Mr<br />
Brownlee might be unwilling<br />
to do so, given a letter of<br />
expectations he had written<br />
indicating obstacles to<br />
development in the district plan<br />
should be removed.<br />
City councillor Yani Johanson<br />
said he would be in favour of<br />
asking Mr Brownlee to make<br />
changes.<br />
“I can’t see any reasons why<br />
[a plan change] couldn’t happen<br />
quite quickly,” Cr Johanson said.<br />
“We have one of the most<br />
permissive plans in the country<br />
which allows anything to go<br />
anywhere.”<br />
Mr Brownlee did not respond<br />
to a request for comment.<br />

East resigns from<br />
alcohol working party<br />
• By Shelley Robinson<br />
CITY COUNCILLOR David<br />
East has resigned from a<br />
working party negotiating with<br />
opponents to a controversial<br />
alcohol policy.<br />
He did so in a bid to prevent<br />
the 19 appellants to the city<br />
council’s provisional local alcohol<br />
policy using it as grounds for<br />
judicial review, after it emerged<br />
he had made a submission<br />
opposing several points of the<br />
policy in 2013.<br />
It was made before he was<br />
elected.<br />
In October, the LAP will come<br />
under scrutiny at an Alcohol<br />
Regulatory and Licensing Authority<br />
hearing.<br />
The contentious LAP would<br />
force most bars to close at 1am,<br />
except those in a small central<br />
city zone. It would also restrict<br />
off-licence hours from 9am to<br />
9pm.<br />
The working party of five city<br />
councillors, including Cr East,<br />
was formed to negotiate with<br />
the appellants before the hearing.<br />
Cr East who represents the<br />
Burwood-<strong>Pegasus</strong> ward made a<br />
submission on the policy in 2013<br />
when it was being drafted and<br />
asked the city council whether<br />
it was concerned it could be<br />
used by the appellants due to a<br />
perceived conflict of interest or<br />
predetermination.<br />
City council’s head of strategic<br />
policy Helen Beaumont said<br />
it was satisfied the submission<br />
did not raise “any particular<br />
concerns”.<br />
“There is nothing to suggest<br />
that Cr East has not maintained<br />
an open mind in being a part<br />
of the council’s working party,”<br />
she said.<br />
Cr East said he resigned from<br />
the working party on Monday<br />
“in part” because of inquiries by<br />
The Star newspaper.<br />
He said he had forgotten he<br />
had made a submission but as a<br />
precautionary measure he chose<br />
to resign.<br />
“It is a course of action I<br />
would have taken in any situation.<br />
If there was a potential<br />
conflict it is better to be out of it<br />
and not have a reason for judicial<br />
review or whatever,” he said.<br />
In his 2013 submission he said<br />
licences should be issued on<br />
the merit of the application and<br />
closing times “at the discretion”<br />
of the licensing authority.<br />
He wrote that bars that<br />
close at 1am would impact the<br />
financial viability of some and<br />
that the LAP was restrictive on<br />
trade and did not address the<br />
“real issues of pre-loading” with<br />
alcohol.<br />
In Brief<br />
NEIGHBOURHOOD WEEK<br />
Applications are now open<br />
for a small subsidy from the<br />
Shirley-Papanui Community<br />
Board for activities celebrating<br />
neighbourhood week. The closing<br />
date for applications is <strong>August</strong> 19<br />
at 5pm. For more information, go<br />
to www.ccc.govt.nz<br />
FUNDING APPROVED<br />
The Shirley-Papanui Community<br />
Board has granted $11,000 from<br />
its discretionary response fund<br />
for three projects. It approved<br />
$2000 to Te Ora Hou Otautahi<br />
Inc for Te Pihi Ora Hou after<br />
school mentoring programme,<br />
$4000 for neighbourhood week,<br />
and $5000 for Canterbury Cook<br />
Island Sports to host more events.<br />
BLOOD DONATIONS<br />
A mobile blood service will be<br />
up and running in New Brighton<br />
from Wednesday next week.<br />
The service will be set up at<br />
New Brighton’s Grace Vineyard<br />
Church, 111 Seaview Rd, on<br />
Wednesday, <strong>August</strong> 17 from<br />
2-6pm. Phone 0800 448 325 to<br />
book an appointment.<br />
ENSOR RD WORKS<br />
Ensors Rd near the intersection<br />
with Fifield Tce has been reduced<br />
to one lane and will remain so<br />
for about five weeks. Temporary<br />
traffic lights are in place but<br />
expect significant delays during<br />
peak times.<br />
NO STOPPING APPROVED<br />
The Shirley-Papanui Community<br />
Board has approved no stopping<br />
lines on five streets. Sail, Wiremu,<br />
Dalriada Sts and St James Ave,<br />
Brenton Close and Langdons Rd<br />
all had no stopping restrictions<br />
approved at last Wednesday’s<br />
meeting. Wiremu St also had<br />
P120 parking restrictions<br />
proposed for it but the board<br />
decided parking on the street<br />
was not bad enough to warrant<br />
restrictions.<br />
COMMUNITY CENTRE<br />
Plans for the new St Albans<br />
Community Centre will come<br />
back to the Shirley-Papanui<br />
Community Board for sign off<br />
before heading into the detailed<br />
design process. Board chairman<br />
Mike Davidson was pleased with<br />
the momentum of the project<br />
saying it was a huge priority for<br />
the board. The plans will be at the<br />
board meeting on <strong>August</strong> 17.<br />

LAST WEEK I mentioned<br />
heading to a fire investigation<br />
about the time I was writing the<br />
column. That incident turned out<br />
to be the fatal fire that occurred<br />
in Woolston and involved<br />
Gardening<br />
several days on the scene for<br />
investigators.<br />
While inquiries continue, I can<br />
say that any situation in which<br />
people are living where flame is<br />
involved in any cooking, heating<br />
or lighting makes for a heightened<br />
level of risk from fire.<br />
I regularly report the instances<br />
of cooking or kitchen fires here.<br />

to sympathy for the poor mum<br />

didn’t have a battery. Which<br />
could have made a bad situation<br />
tragic!<br />
Winter weather has had an effect<br />
on fire calls in the city. Crews<br />
attended 18 car crashes this week.<br />
They also went to 20 ambulance<br />

which eight involved fatalities.<br />
Cold, wet weather seems to be<br />

we should be extra careful driving<br />

elderly parents. Just in case!<br />

Sarah beats cancer again;<br />
now she’s helping others<br />
• By Bridget Rutherford<br />
SARAH O’KEEFE is used to<br />
facing challenges.<br />
The 32-year-old was diagnosed<br />
with hodgkin’s lymphoma, a<br />
type of cancer, about 10 years ago<br />
and since then has fought off the<br />
disease three times.<br />
Now she faces a different challenge<br />
– going on a road trip with<br />
her mother, Lynne, to the West<br />
Coast on scooters to raise money<br />
for the Cancer Society of New<br />
Zealand.<br />
The pair will be among 250<br />
people to ride the 250km from<br />
Christchurch to Hokitika on<br />
scooters as part of the Tranz Alpine<br />
Scooter Safari on September<br />
10 – and it will be a new experience<br />
for both of them.<br />
“Mum’s never ridden one, and<br />
I only have in Rarotonga,” Sarah<br />
said.<br />
With the help of Aked Mobile<br />
Hose and Fittings, where Sarah’s<br />
partner Matt works, they were<br />
able to buy new scooters, and race<br />
jackets.<br />
Sarah was diagnosed with<br />
hodgkin’s, which originates from<br />
a specific type of white blood<br />
cells, just months after her 21st<br />
birthday. She underwent chemotherapy,<br />
and got the all clear<br />
about 10 months later. But the<br />
following year it was back. After<br />
radiation treatment, Sarah was<br />
given the all clear for a second<br />
time.<br />
But 10 years later, in November,<br />
she began to have stomach pains.<br />
The doctor initially believed it<br />
was gallstones, but it turned<br />
out she had tumours in her<br />
stomach.<br />
“If its going to come back it<br />
generally comes back within a<br />
couple of years, so it’s kind of<br />
unusual its come back 10 years<br />
later.”<br />

Second tunnel plan mooted<br />
• By Tom Doudney<br />
A SECOND<br />
ashion<br />
road tunnel between<br />
Christchurch and Lyttelton will<br />
be needed in about 20 years due<br />
to growth in freight transport,<br />
the port boss says.<br />
Lyttelton Port Company chief<br />
executive Peter Davie said a<br />
“guestimate” from an engineer<br />
had put the cost of a second tunnel<br />
in the region of $500 million,<br />
and funding it would probably<br />
fall to road control authorities.<br />

WESTMINSTER Sports Inc<br />
• By Andrew King<br />
no longer has the funds or a<br />
commitment from its member<br />
clubs to continue offering sports<br />
programmes.<br />
The organisation started in<br />
2006 and combined the interests<br />
of a number of sports clubs and<br />
asty Bites<br />
organisations clustered around<br />
Mairehau, Marshland, Shirley,<br />
Papanui, Merivale, St Albans<br />
and Redwood, with more than<br />
2000 members from eight different<br />
sports codes.<br />
to say, ‘if we have got this volume<br />
of cargo in 20 years time, how<br />
are we going to handle it’?”<br />
Mr Davie said the logical thing<br />
would be for one tunnel to serve<br />
port traffic, possibly bypassing<br />
Norwich Quay in Lyttelton and<br />
connecting directly to the port.<br />
Member clubs unanimously<br />
accepted the recommendation<br />
of the board to wind up the operations<br />
of the organisation at a<br />
special general meeting in June.<br />
Chairman Rob Smith said<br />
while it’s a regrettable and difficult<br />
decision to make, this was<br />
something that had been looming<br />
for some time.<br />
“This reflects the significant<br />
challenges associated with running<br />
a viable sporting organisation<br />
in the current environment,”<br />
he said.<br />
Mr Smith said there was a<br />
New Zealand Transport<br />
Agency director southern region<br />
Jim Harland said the tunnel<br />
still had significant capacity to<br />
accommodate further growth in<br />
traffic volumes before a solution<br />
would be needed. Increasing<br />
use of rail to the port would also<br />
help.<br />
“The second tunnel has been<br />
discussed as part of the Greater<br />
Christchurch Freight Management<br />
Study, and was suggested<br />
as a long term option, subject to<br />
a comprehensive business case<br />
analysis at the appropriate time,”<br />
Mr Harland said.<br />
Westminster Sports winds up<br />
number of factors that contributed<br />
to the idea not working.<br />
He said the financial position<br />
of the organisation was such that<br />
operation beyond a two to three<br />
month time frame was not viable<br />
and member clubs were not engaged<br />
to the degree necessary to<br />
ensure or create a viable business<br />
model.<br />
Sport Canterbury chief executive<br />
Julyan Falloon said while<br />
it was a concern for those clubs<br />
involved, plenty survive without<br />
the aid of organisations like<br />
Westminster Sports.<br />
In Brief<br />
TREES TO BE REMOVED<br />
The Burwood-<strong>Pegasus</strong> has<br />
approved the removal of 29 street<br />
and park trees to allow the first<br />
stage of the Avon Temporary<br />
Stopbanks reconstruction<br />
works. The board expressed a<br />
wish that the suggested trees<br />
be removed only if absolutely<br />
necessary noting that this was<br />
the first stage of the project. It<br />
has asked city council parks<br />
staff to provide it with a plan to<br />
replace the trees where possible.<br />
They will advise the board if<br />
the replacement trees would be<br />
exotic, native or a combination.<br />
Board member David East<br />
wished his vote against the<br />
removal recorded.<br />
TWO TAKEN TO HOSPITAL<br />
A man was taken to<br />
Christchurch Hospital in a<br />
moderate condition after two<br />
cars crashed in Woolston. St<br />
John sent an ambulance to<br />
the scene at the intersection of<br />
Linwood Ave and Humphreys<br />
Dr about 10.45am. The man<br />
was assessed at the scene and<br />
taken to hospital for further<br />
treatment. Another person was<br />
taken to hospital after two cars<br />
crashed in Marshland. St John<br />
took a person from the scene on<br />
Marshland Rd at about 1pm with<br />
minor injuries.<br />
FUNDING GRANTED<br />
The Burwood-<strong>Pegasus</strong> Community<br />
Board has approved funding<br />
for St Thomas of Canterbury<br />
College students Sua Aiiloilo<br />
and Amani Khoi to attend<br />
the New Zealand Secondary<br />
Schools Rugby League National<br />
Tournament held in Auckland<br />
from <strong>August</strong> 29 to September 2.<br />
The money came from its youth<br />
development fund. The board<br />
also approved $3730 for Pleasant<br />
Point Yacht Club Incorporated<br />
towards the purchase of a replacement<br />
12m container from<br />
its discretionary response fund.<br />
REPAIRS STARTED<br />
Fulton Hogan has started<br />
repairing a large section of<br />
earthquake-damaged wastewater<br />
pipe near the intersection of<br />
Halsey St and Estuary Rd as<br />
of yesterday. There will be no<br />
vehicle access to properties 319<br />

PEGASUS POST<br />
Cherry blossoms mark quake deaths<br />
• By Annabelle Dick<br />
TWENTY EIGHT young<br />
Japanese language students<br />
lost their lives when the CTV<br />
building collapsed during the<br />
February 22, 2011, quake.<br />
Now eight cherry blossom<br />
trees will be planted in the<br />
Botanic Gardens at a ceremony<br />
tomorrow (<strong>August</strong> 10) at<br />
2.30pm to honour their memory.<br />
The trees, donated by the<br />
city of Ishinomaki, Japan, will<br />
be planted at the World Peace<br />
Bell garden to honour victims<br />
of New Zealand and Japan’s<br />
earthquakes.<br />
Just weeks after the February<br />
quake, Japan was struck by<br />
a devastating magnitude 9<br />
earthquake and tsunami which<br />
killed about 16,000 people. The<br />
city of Ishinomaki lost more<br />
than 3000 people.<br />
New Zealand World Peace<br />
Bell member David Bolam-<br />
Smith said the commemoration<br />
project came about when he<br />
met Japanese families and<br />
representatives at the five-year<br />
anniversary in February.<br />
Zen Buddhist priest Taigen<br />
Goto was there on behalf of<br />
one of the families when Mr<br />
Bolam-Smith invited him to<br />
ring the peace bell to pray for<br />
the Japanese students lost in the<br />
CTV building.<br />
Mr Bolam-Smith said he was<br />
telling Mr Goto about his plans<br />
to plant cherry trees from the<br />
bell to the river when he offered<br />
some help.<br />
“He pulled out his wallet<br />
and gave me $500 dollars on<br />
the spot and said, ‘please plant<br />
cherry trees here to remember<br />
the people who died in the<br />
Christchurch earthquake<br />
and the tsunami and<br />
quakes in Japan’,” Mr Bolam-<br />
Smith said.<br />
After planting trees in<br />
Christchurch, Mr Bolam-Smith<br />
will travel to Mr Goto’s home<br />
city of Ishinomaki to return<br />
the favour by planting cherry<br />
blossoms.<br />
“We’re building a cherry<br />
blossom bridge between the two<br />
countries,” he said.<br />
Ishinomaki is home to a<br />
training facility being built for<br />
the Rugby World Cup in 2019.<br />
Mr Bolam-Smith will visit the<br />
city in September to plant the<br />
trees outside the stadium in the<br />
presence of Japan Rugby Football<br />
Union representatives and the<br />
city mayor.<br />
He will travel to Japan on<br />
September 1.<br />
He is also urging residents to<br />
attend the public tree-planting<br />
ceremony at the Botanic Gardens’<br />
World Peace Bell.<br />
A BLOSSOMING CONNECTION: David Bolam-Smith will plant cherry blossom trees in both<br />
Christchurch and Ishinomaki, Japan, to honour the lives of earthquake victims who perished in<br />
the CTV building.<br />

Familiar face at the theatre<br />
Pam Lutton first offered to help out with ushering a<br />
show at the Isaac Theatre Royal 35 years ago. Georgia<br />
O’Connor-Harding talked to her about the changing face<br />
of the theatre, rubbing shoulders with the prime minister<br />
and what it’s like to have an Olympian in the family.<br />
MRS LUTTON now spends her<br />
days working front-of-house at<br />
the theatre, greeting customers,<br />
taking tickets and making sure<br />
everything runs smoothly.<br />
“I said I would only do it for<br />
the weekend and here I am 35<br />
years later,” she said.<br />
Mrs Lutton, 67, of Burwood,<br />
described herself as a “nervous<br />
person” before starting her job.<br />
“It gives you confidence<br />
because I was brought up in a<br />
boarding school with nuns . .<br />
. you didn’t have a lot of confidence<br />
when you get out of there,”<br />
she said.<br />
Now she has rubbed shoulders<br />
with the likes of Prime Minster<br />
John Key, former prime minsters<br />
Helen Clark and Jenny Shipley,<br />
and celebrities including Dame<br />
Kiri Te Kanawa.<br />
And times have changed since<br />
Mrs Lutton began working at the<br />
Isaac Theatre Royal in 1981.<br />
“Once upon a time it was only<br />
a part-time job. You would have<br />
shows probably once every two<br />
months. Now we have got something<br />
going nearly all the time,”<br />
she said.<br />
Mrs Lutton has spent so much<br />
time at the theatre that one night<br />
about 25 years ago she, along<br />
with several others, camped out<br />
at the theatre to ghost watch.<br />
“My friend Julie McKenzie says<br />
(the theatre) is haunted but I have<br />
never seen the ghosts.”<br />
Mrs Lutton grew up in Cronadun<br />
on the West Coast before<br />
attending St Mary’s School in<br />
Hokitika.<br />
She comes from a sporting<br />
family and one of her daughters<br />
has represented New Zealand at<br />
the Commonwealth Games.<br />
Her daughter Tania came<br />
fourth in shot put at the 1998<br />
Commonwealth Games in Kuala<br />
Lumpur.<br />
Her son Deane works as a professional<br />
rugby coach in Japan,<br />
while another daughter Nina had<br />
a flair for swimming, but gave<br />
up the sport to pursue tertiary<br />
studies.<br />
She is also very proud of her<br />
nephew, Tom Walsh, who will<br />
compete at the Rio Olympics on<br />
<strong>August</strong> 19.<br />
Mrs Lutton has a passion for<br />
sports herself, having raced<br />
in marathons, including the<br />
Christchurch Marathon.<br />
But in spite of her interest in<br />
sports, Mrs Lutton loved the performing<br />
arts from a young age.<br />
“The nuns used to have us<br />
ballroom dancing in the hall, We<br />
did the dancing but weren’t allowed<br />
to do anything too crude<br />
or sexy.”<br />
She described working<br />
at the theatre as a “luxury<br />
job” and missed it when the<br />
theatre closed after the earthquakes.<br />
FRONT-OF-HOUSE:<br />
Pam Lutton has<br />
been working at the<br />
Isaac Theatre Royal<br />
for 35 years. She is<br />
also the proud aunt<br />
of Olympian shot<br />
putter Tom Walsh<br />
who will compete<br />
in Rio on <strong>August</strong> 19.<br />

William Stedman<br />
Athlete’s first paralympics<br />
Christchurch’s William<br />
Stedman, 16, will debut<br />
at the Rio de Janeiro<br />
Paralympics in September.<br />
He spoke to reporter Caitlin<br />
Miles about how he hasn’t<br />
let cerebral palsy stop him<br />
from competing and what<br />
inspired him to become a<br />
paralympic athlete<br />
Congratulations on getting a<br />
grant from Inspire Foundation.<br />
Thank you. Yeah, it’s really<br />
cool, it’ll help me out a lot to get<br />
things I need before heading to<br />
Rio. I’m really thankful that they<br />
gave me the money. They’re a<br />
great foundation.<br />
How much money did<br />
you receive? What will it go<br />
towards?<br />
I got $1000, so that will go<br />
towards paying for orthotics<br />
and shoes and that kind of stuff.<br />
The New Zealand Paralympics<br />
covers our entry costs and stuff,<br />
which is a big relief because it’s<br />
not cheap. The money I got from<br />
the foundation can be focused on<br />
getting me the things I need for<br />
it, not just pay to compete.<br />
Congratulations, too, on<br />
heading to Rio – are you<br />
excited?<br />
I fly out tomorrow so I’m pretty<br />
excited. I’ve been doing a lot<br />
of training and stuff so it’s still<br />
pretty surreal. The other people<br />
I’ve met in the paralympic team<br />
are really great so it’s going to be<br />
really cool.<br />
How long have you been<br />
training for?<br />
I kind of never stop training. It<br />
gets ramped up and more intense<br />
closer to the time, but I’m always<br />
training. When I went to the<br />
world champs in Doha, I didn’t<br />
know I was going until about two<br />
weeks before. I didn’t think I had<br />
got in so, when I found out I had,<br />
there was a bit more pressure to<br />
train harder. I had been training<br />
constantly anyway, but that<br />
uncertainty was annoying. It was<br />
such a big event and competition<br />
to be a part of so the idea of<br />
missing out was hard, so it was<br />
even better when I found out I<br />
DRIVE: William Stedman spends more than 10 hours a week<br />
training for events and competitions, such as the paralympics.<br />
had got in.<br />
How did you fund that? It<br />
must have been hard to get<br />
all the money and everything<br />
together in a short amount of<br />
time?<br />
Well my parents were really<br />
good about it. They helped<br />
me out big time with getting<br />
everything together in not much<br />
time. I guess it was such a big<br />
thing for me and a really great<br />
opportunity they didn’t want me<br />
to miss out either.<br />
Is this your first year going to<br />
the paralympics?<br />
Yeah, it is. It’s really exciting to<br />
be going over.<br />
What classifies you as a<br />
paralympian?<br />
I have cerebral palsy so the left<br />
side of my body is a bit slower<br />
and doesn’t react as quickly. I<br />
was classed as T28, which was bit<br />
too hard for me to compete in. I<br />
am now classed at T36 and that<br />
made a big change to how I can<br />
compete. It’s much easier for<br />
me and I compete better and<br />
a little easier, which gives me<br />
a good chance to compete<br />
professionally and go to worlds<br />
and stuff.<br />
Why did you decide to<br />
become an athlete?<br />
I have always been pretty<br />
active. I enjoy sport. It wasn’t<br />
until I saw the 2012 London<br />
Paralympics and I thought, ‘I can<br />
do that, why can’t I do that?’ So<br />
I decided to get serious about it<br />
and see what I can do.<br />
So you’ve been competing for<br />
four years?<br />
No, not at first. I wanted to<br />
get into running and see what it<br />
was like. I joined the Port Hills<br />
Athletics Club and I started<br />
long distance running with the<br />
club. It wasn’t until 2014 when<br />
I started training properly for<br />
competitions.<br />
What events do you compete<br />
in?<br />
I do the 400m, 800m running<br />
events and the long jump.<br />
How often do you train and<br />
what’s involved?<br />
I train roughly seven times a<br />
week. That’s about 10-11 hours.<br />
It might not sound like much<br />
but it’s pretty high intensity stuff.<br />
I do a lot of different exercises<br />
over the week. I’ll do short<br />
distance running, long distance,<br />
endurance stuff, running up<br />
and down stairs and hills, gym<br />
sessions and all of that kind of<br />
stuff. I usually get two days off<br />
a week. Sometimes I’ll train on<br />
Sundays, though.<br />
How does your body cope<br />
with that? Do your muscles<br />
struggle?<br />
No, my muscles handle it<br />
pretty well, but my left side is<br />
just slower and I have less muscle<br />
control over it so it doesn’t move<br />
as well. I started off running long<br />
distances and then I switched<br />
to shorter distances. I think it’s<br />
because my body can handle<br />
shorter distances better. I’m more<br />
NEW LOCATION ADVERT.pdf 1 1/05/2014 11:51:35 a.m.<br />
of a middle distance runner now.<br />
As I get older, I might go back to<br />
doing longer distances.<br />
How do you balance school<br />
and training? Is it your first<br />
year of exams?<br />
Yeah, I’m doing NCEA level 1<br />
this year, so there is a bit going<br />
on. My school is really supportive<br />
of my sport so that’s a big help.<br />
They understand there is a lot<br />
going on so I balance it. I’ve got<br />
to stay really motivated to be able<br />
to do both.<br />
Do you ever worry about<br />
cerebral palsy stopping you<br />
from running and competing?<br />
I never really think about it<br />
to be honest. I make sure I look<br />
after myself. It’s important to me<br />
to compete and be a good athlete,<br />
but I also know to look after<br />
myself. I’m not too worried about<br />
having to stop. Not at this stage<br />
anyway. I have had a couple of<br />
injuries but nothing too serious.<br />
I had a bone stress injury in my<br />
foot when I competed, which<br />
was painful, but nothing that has<br />
made me think about stopping.<br />
Has anyone ever told you<br />
that you shouldn’t be an athlete<br />
because of cerebral palsy?<br />
No. I’m really lucky. I’ve had so<br />
much support from my parents<br />
and my friends and my school.<br />
My coach, George Edwards, is<br />
really great, too. I also think<br />
paralympics are getting more<br />
support and recognition, which<br />
is really cool. It’s not so hidden<br />
anymore. There is a lot more<br />
support for us athletes, which I<br />
think is a really great thing to see.<br />
Do you see yourself as a role<br />
model for other people with<br />
disabilities?<br />
I wouldn’t call myself a role<br />
model. Not at the moment<br />
anyway. I’d like to be a role model<br />
in the future, though. I think it’s<br />
just really cool that paralympics<br />
is becoming a bigger event and<br />
getting more people to celebrate<br />
us. It gets more coverage in the<br />
media, more people recognise us<br />
as athletes that have disabilities<br />
and support us. Not just here, but<br />
around the world, which is really<br />
cool. It’s a big step forward.<br />

Overpasses planned for Brougham St<br />
• By Tom Doudney<br />
REPLACING Brougham St<br />
intersections with overpasses<br />
would solve a lot of traffic<br />
problems, Lyttelton Port<br />
Company chief executive Peter<br />
Davie says.<br />
Overpasses are being considered<br />
as part of a programme<br />
business case for<br />
State Highway 76,<br />
which includes<br />
Brougham St,<br />
led by New Zealand<br />
Transport<br />
Agency.<br />
Key stakeholders<br />
including the port company,<br />
the city council and KiwiRail are<br />
also involved.<br />
Mr Davie said the port company<br />
had some concerns about<br />
congestion on Brougham St – a<br />
major transport route to and<br />
from the port.<br />
JAM PACKED: Traffic congestion on Brougham St could be<br />
eased by putting in overpasses. PHOTO: GEOFF SLOAN<br />
“There is twice the traffic<br />
ACHIEVERS<br />
trying to get across Brougham<br />
St as there is down it. If you<br />
think about why you have got<br />
ACHIEVERS<br />
congestion, you have actually got<br />
a whole lot of crossings where<br />
trucks and cars are stopping the<br />
whole way down,” he said.<br />
“It seems pretty obvious that<br />
you would need to try and do<br />
away with that congestion by<br />
[roads] going over or under<br />
each other.”<br />
NZTA director southern<br />
region Jim Harland said overpasses<br />
would reduce the number<br />
of conflicting movements at<br />
intersections but the pros and<br />
cons of this option compared to<br />
others still needed to be established.<br />
“The cost has not yet been<br />
determined, but would be<br />
significant given the cost of<br />
adjacent land along Brougham<br />
St,” Mr Harland said.<br />
Mr Davie said there were<br />
perhaps three or four major<br />
intersections on Brougham St<br />
and putting overpasses on two<br />
of them would go a long way to<br />
fixing the problem.<br />
“Your only other option really<br />
is to three-lane Brougham St<br />
which means you take all the<br />
parking out,” he said.<br />
Average daily traffic volumes<br />
on Brougham St have risen from<br />
35,019 movements a day in 2006<br />
to 38,525 in 2015.<br />
Mr Davie said that with just<br />
four per cent of the traffic volume<br />
being comprised of vehicles<br />
travelling to or from the port, its<br />
contribution to congestion was<br />
low.<br />
The volume of goods going to<br />
and from the port was expected<br />
to increase steadily in the years<br />
ahead due to growth in Canterbury’s<br />
exports and imports.<br />
However, some of that increase<br />
could be accommodated by<br />
moving goods by rail.<br />

Shirley Boys’ to face top side in semis<br />
• By Gordon Findlater<br />
SHIRLEY BOYS’ High School<br />
will face an in-form Christ’s<br />
College in this weekend’s UC<br />
Championship semi-finals.<br />
Shirley Boys’ finished the<br />
round-robin on Saturday with a<br />
13-19 loss to Christchurch Boys’<br />
High School. It could have been<br />
a different story though, after the<br />
scores were tied at seven a piece<br />
at half-time.<br />
Trailing 13-14 with less than<br />
10min remaining, first-five Taine<br />
Jacobs-Lawson had a chance to<br />
win the game for Shirley Boys’<br />
with a penalty attempt. His<br />
shot at goal missed, CBHS then<br />
wrapped up the game with a try<br />
in the final minute.<br />
The result means they go into<br />
the semis as the fourth qualifier<br />
behind Christ’s, CBHS and<br />
Nelson College.<br />
They will play Christ’s College<br />
in this Saturday’s semi-final.<br />
SPORTS<br />
SPORTS<br />
CLOSE: Shirley came agonizingly close to making it two<br />
consecutive wins over CBHS. A try in the final minute gave<br />
the hosts a 19-13 victory.<br />
The two sides played recently, the July 23 meeting 33-10.<br />
with Christ’s College winning Shirley Boys’ rugby manager<br />
John Fox knows how tough getting<br />
a result against the competition’s<br />
top side will be.<br />
“Playing them on upper is<br />
always a tough task, we will go<br />
into the game with nothing to<br />
lose. We’ve achieved our goal<br />
of making the top four so anything<br />
from here is a bonus,” said<br />
Fox.<br />
Christ’s College wrapped up<br />
top spot in emphatic fashion,<br />
demolishing St Andrew’s 67-19.<br />
The win means that they will<br />
now host their first ever UC<br />
championship semi-final.<br />
“It will be huge atmosphere<br />
at Upper on Saturday, it’s<br />
been a long time since the<br />
school has had a game like<br />
this to celebrate,” said Stephen<br />
Dods, Christ’s College rugby<br />

SCHOOL OPTIONS – early and middle years 2017<br />
Getting Parents Involved<br />
MerrIn BelIeveS that effective<br />
school-home partnerships can enhance<br />
children’s learning. These partnerships are<br />
also welcome within the school to give<br />
students an extra boost through various<br />
programmes which would not be available<br />
without parent input.<br />
examples of these programmes are<br />
our group of Parent reading tutors<br />
whom work alongside 2 students three<br />
times a week and the Perceptual Motor<br />
Programme which helps enhance<br />
our tāmariki’s movement skills and<br />
understanding of language.<br />
Including and encouraging parents to<br />
be active participants within learning<br />
discussions is another growth area<br />
at Merrin.<br />
These opportunities are provided<br />
through our Merrin ICt Community<br />
Blog providing instant online support<br />
and information about BYOD and<br />
digital citizenship through a specially<br />
designed portal, giving parents interactive<br />
responses to questions.<br />
There is a regular Monday Parent<br />
Drop in Centre for parents to ask<br />
questions while having a chat and cup of<br />
coffee. Parent information workshops<br />
also pop up regularly throughout the year<br />
on a variety of topics.<br />
Merrin is always looking for ways to<br />
enhance and grow our partnership with<br />
parents for the benefit of all our tāmariki.<br />

HEALTH & BEAUTY<br />
A game changer in the fight<br />
against Parkinson’s Disease<br />
If you have Parkinson’s disease, you cannot<br />
afford to underestimate the benefits of<br />
exercise. Being sedentary is one of the fastest<br />
ways to see your symptoms get worse. To be<br />
the best you can be, consider a revolutionary<br />
Parkinson’s programme, PD Warrior, run by<br />
Muscle People Physiotherapy.<br />
“Exercise needs to be a front line defence<br />
for people with Parkinson’s disease. PD<br />
Warrior aims to re-wire the brain to allow<br />
everyday movements and activities to be<br />
performed with greater ease. Just like your<br />
muscles benefit from cross- training, your<br />
brain also benefits from being challenged and<br />
surprised.” Melissa McConaghy, co-founder<br />
of PD Warrior and Specialist Neurological<br />
Physiotherapist.<br />
Purposeful movement can combat the loss<br />
of motor control seen in Parkinson’s disease.<br />
PD Warrior combines a high effort, intensive<br />
work-out with a challenging combination<br />
of movements and mental strategy. It is<br />
designed for people with early stage or mild<br />
Parkinson’s disease with the aim of slowing<br />
down the progress of the disease.<br />
“PD Warrior is loads of fun and can get<br />
very loud with plenty of variety to keep<br />
people engaged. you get to connect with<br />
like-minded people who want to fight their<br />
symptoms,” says Laurie Moore, Director of<br />
Muscle People Physiotherapy.<br />
Neil, from Rangiora, has been attending<br />
the PD Warrior programme and says; “The<br />
exaggerated movement keeps the body<br />
moving rather than seizing up”. Neil keeps<br />
up the exercises at home during the week and<br />
says “that’s how you get the most benefit out<br />
of it.” He has been playing more golf and is<br />
able to work a couple of days a week.<br />
Muscle People has helped clients achieve<br />
some significant milestones through PD<br />
Warrior. Those who come to the PD Warrior<br />
circuit style programme at the city clinic each<br />
week report feeling more confident in their<br />
movements and are able to move more freely<br />
and get back into life.<br />
The first step in the PD Warrior<br />
programme is an assessment at Muscle<br />
People Physiotherapy. for more information<br />
or to book your assessment telephone the<br />
friendly team at Muscle People on<br />
360 3606.”<br />
PD Warrior not only re-trains your<br />
brain, it also helps you to get -<br />
• Your life back – get back to doing<br />
the things you love.<br />
• Stronger and healthier, so you feel<br />
better about yourself.<br />
• More comfortable doing several<br />
things at one time.<br />
• Better balance... prevent<br />
dangerous accidents and falls.<br />
• Able to do all the little things that<br />
you have recently abandoned.<br />
Parkinson’s -<br />
• Parkinson’s is a progressive<br />
neurodegenerative condition<br />
which effects the part of the brain<br />
responsible for initiating and coordinating<br />
movement.<br />
• Approximately 1 in 500 people<br />
have the condition.<br />
• Twenty percent of people affected<br />
by Parkinson’s are of working age<br />
(15-64 years).<br />
PD Warrior -<br />
• Uses a unique combination of<br />
physical and cognitive activities to<br />
drive the brain’s natural ability to<br />
re-wire itself.<br />
• PD Warrior retrains the brain<br />
and helps people feel stronger and<br />
fitter.<br />
• Muscle People Physiotherapy run<br />
the PD Warrior each week with a<br />
group of 10 people.<br />
What type of Parkinson’s do you have?<br />
Knowing the answer to this question can slow down your Parkinson’s and<br />
help you to look, move and feel better.<br />
