Post-election spat 

for community board 

Stewart hits 

out at former 

chairwoman 

• By Shelley Robinson 

RE-ELECTED Burwood-Coastal 

Community Board member 

Linda Stewart has taken a swipe 

at her former chairwoman, 

Andrea Cummings. 

In a text released to the 

Pegasus Post under the Official 

Information Act, Ms Stewart 

told Ms Cummings after the 

recent local body elections, that 

she had not done her best for the 

community – rather done the 

best by “the mayor.” 

Ms Stewart said in the text she 

ignored the rest of the board in 

the last term, and would do so 

again this term if they failed to 

“work with the people.” 

Ms Stewart was elected 

onto the Burwood-Coastal 

Community Board alongside 

Tim Baker, Tim Sintes and Kim 

Money. Ms Cummings, who was 

the chairwoman of the former 

community board, missed out 

on re-election. 

Ms Stewart also ran for district 

councillor in the Rangiora- 

Ashley Ward but failed to get 

elected.

Lianne Dalziel Linda Stewart Andrea Cummings 

Since the earthquakes, Ms 

Stewart has relocated from 

her house in Parklands, and 

has been living in a home in 

Rangiora since the start of the 

year. She told the Pegasus Post 

last month that she wanted 

“closure” and to finish projects 

in Burwood. 

The text was sent in response 

to Ms Cummings thanking 

her supporters on Facebook on 

October 8. 

She wrote that she could leave 

with her “head held high . . . 

knowing I did all I could for the 

community with honesty and 

their best interests at heart.” 

Ms Cummings told the 

Pegasus Post she had always 

behaved in a fair way. 

“During the term I was 

gracious to Linda and offered 

her many opportunities to 

participate in the public eye 

over and above what I was 

obliged to as chair.” 

But Ms Stewart texted her the 

morning after the local body 

elections saying: [I] disagree that 

you did you best to represent 

the east. You did your best for 

the mayor. The people were so 

disappointed that you didn’t 

represent them. I tried to tell you 

but you ignored my advice. The 

term was hard for that reason 

and not as hard as the one prior 

by a long shot . . . 

“I hope now that this board 

gets reconnected to our people 

and represents them. If not I 

will ignore them and again work 

with the people. That’s advocacy. 

Screw politics,” she wrote. 

“Find a new direction for 

yourself,” she advised Ms 

Cummings. 

Ms Stewart told the Pegasus 

Post it was not intended to be 

personal attack on Ms Cummings 

or Mayor Lianne Dalziel, but she

FROM 

THE 

EDITOR’S 

DESK News................................ 3, 5-6 

IT WAS a surprise exit from 

local body politics for former 

community board chairwoman 

Andrea Cummings last week. 

But it appears that one of her 

board members, Linda Stewart 

(who did get re-elected), took 

the opportunity to share a few 

thoughts the morning after the 

elections by sending her a text 

message. Pegasus Post received 

the text that was sent under the 

Official Information Act and that is 

our front page this week. Was the 

community board as disconnected 

from residents as Ms Stewart says?

Safety concerns near school 

In Brief 

• By Caitlin Miles 

TRAFFIC OUTSIDE Linwood 

Ave School has parents fearful 

for the safety of children when 

they walk to and from school, 

and they want the speed limit 

reduced urgently. 

Parents say the crossings at 

the busy Linwood Ave, Buckleys 

Rd and Aldwins Rd intersection, 

and the Linwood Ave crossing 

outside the school, are “too 

dangerous” for children to use 

safely. 

The school has called in the 

city council to look at reducing 

speed on Linwood Ave from 

50km/h outside the school to 

40km/h, and to put in flashing 

speed signs. 

Principal Blair Dravitski, who 

started at the school last week 

replacing Gerard Direen, said 

it’s an issue the school wants 

improved. 

He said the city council would 

be at the school on Wednesday 

to observe the issues around 

children safely navigating the 

traffic. 

The Pegasus Post went to the 

school on Friday morning and 

spoke with concerned parents. 

Tracy Blackmun said she 

worries about her son, Keith, 

walking to school and having to 

navigate the traffic lights. 

SAFETY: Tracy Blackmun drops her son, Keith, off directly 

outside the Linwood Ave School gates because she is concerned 

for his safety crossing the busy roads. PHOTOS: GEOFF SLOAN 

“I drop him off right outside 

the gate every morning and pick 

him up right here too because 

I’m worried about his safety,” 

Mrs Blackmun said. 

“Something needs to be done 

because the kids need to be 

safe,” she said. 

Another parent, Lisa Harrison, 

said the school’s location 

is great, her problem is with the 

traffic and crossings. 

“It’s absolute crap, people 

need to be more careful driving 

around here. It’s too dangerous 

for the kids to get across safely,” 

Mrs Harrison said. 

Mr Dravitski said teachers 

had to be very vigilant at the 

crossings. 

“We think the signs will be 

effective in reminding people 

that they are around a school. 

We want our kids and families 

safe,” he said. 

“We want to get the ball rolling 

on this one. The focus is on 

safety,” Mr Dravitski said. 

WESTHAVEN TREES 

Pavements and driveways being 

torn up does not warrant the 

removal of disruptive trees in 

Westhaven, the city council 

says. Residents living on Wild 

Dunes Place and Lexington 

Place gave deputations to the 

Burwood-Pegasus Community 

Board in August about the plane 

trees in the hopes they would be 

removed by the city council. The 

board resolved that trees creating 

damage to infrastructure and 

private property in the Westhaven 

subdivision would be assessed 

by the city council. But the city 

council’s assessment has returned 

saying their removal is not 

warranted. 

TRUST UPDATE 

The Bridge South Brighton Trust 

has been granted the money it 

needed to purchase the former 

Bridge St Baptist Church. The 

trust hopes to complete the purchase 

in the coming weeks, trust 

member Jane Harrison said at 

which time the community will 

own the building. The trust also 

won a free ‘lift and level’ of the 

building from Smartlift, to the 

value of $150,000 – that will also 

be completed in the coming days. 

Ms Harrison said the building 

was jacked up about 60mm and 

its foundations re-levelled.

Your Local Views 

Attend to the basics first 

Re-elected 

Burwood 

Ward city 

councillor 

Glenn 

Livingstone 

talks 

about the 

importance of prioritising 

needs in the east 

Thank you to the electors of 

the Burwood Ward for your 

support in electing me as your 

city councillor for the next three 

years. 

For residents in the Coastal 

Ward, I will have a relationship 

with you by virtue of being appointed 

to the Coastal-Burwood 

Community Board. 

In many ways, the Burwood 

Ward is a microcosm of where 

the whole city is at and where I 

think we need to head to over the 

next city council term. 

In my view, the city is living 

in a state of an amplified 

hierarchy of needs (in reference 

to Abraham Maslow’s identified 

hierarchy of needs). At one end of 

the pyramid, in terms of the provision 

of the most basic needs, 

many are waiting for roads, 

footpaths and infrastructure to 

be rebuilt and repaired. 

At the other end, many are 

yearning to ‘reach for the stars’ 

and make Christchurch the best 

city it can be. 

The reason I say this hierarchy 

of needs is amplified is that in 

this rebuild phase of our city, the 

call to attend to needs at both 

ends of the pyramid is stronger 

than it would normally be in a 

city, six years on from the earthquakes, 

had we not had a natural 

disaster. 

In Burwood, many of our 

roads and footpaths are still in a 

shocking state. Along with this, 

most of the residential red zone is 

contained within this ward. 

Regeneration Christchurch is 

beginning its work of taking on 

the ideas from the communities 

of interest and working with the 

local, host communities. 

In many ways, this Avon 

Otakaro corridor represents the 

aspirations of how many would 

like Christchurch to look in 

the future. And in some cases, 

rebuild and repair of roads and 

footpaths and the future use of 

this area will go hand in glove, as 

they are inter-related. 

A clue to balancing the 

pyramid is found in the thinking 

behind Maslow’s work itself. 

It’s not rocket science and you 

already know the answer. Basically, 

attend to the basics first 

and then the community will be 

more ready to support the ‘reaching 

for the stars’ aspirations. 

Stay in the kitchen 

when cooking 

• By Mark Thomas – Fire Risk 

Management Officer 

HOW LONG does it take for 10 

litres or more of water in a large 

saucepan to boil away and then 

the pan to melt from the heat (in 

this case a gas cooker) and set 

fire to the building? 

Well in the case of a house in 

Stanley St, Sydenham, last Friday 

night it took eight hours. 

That’s the time between the 

occupant forgetting the pan was 

on and leaving and the place being 

fully involved in fire. 

Five fire trucks and a command 

unit attended and, as 

you would expect, damage was 

severe. 

This has to be counted as a 

cooking fire. There were two 

more reported this week. One of 

them involved someone being 

taken to hospital with smoke 

inhalation. 

It also appears this victim may 

have had two or three drinks 

too many. There are some classic 

recipes for disaster in the above 

incidents. 

The first is relatively common 

but doesn’t always mean a house 

is completely destroyed. 

The second is also quite common, 

particularly amongst our

fatality statistics.

Should be simple. 

There was a smile to be had 

after Woolston’s crew were sent 

to Truscotts Rd up the Heathcote 

Valley on Monday to rescue 

some ducklings from a drain. 

A thorough search failed to 

find them. 

The radio message back to

we may have been sent on

Artwork addresses addiction 

In Brief 

• By Fraser Walker-Pearce 

WHEN Liz Cropp started to 

address her drug addiction, she 

had to do something to fill the 

void, so she took up the paint 

brush. 

Ms Cropp is one of about 

six drug addicts in recovery 

who will be exhibiting their 

work in the Ignite and Excite 

art exhibition at the Linwood 

Community Arts Centre, which 

opens next week. 

Ms Cropp, of Woolston, 

said she started going to art 

workshops to fill up her days 

with activities other than doing 

drugs. 

“Originally it was to find 

something else to do rather 

than fill up my day with drugs. 

So I found that through these 

workshops I was able to go 

straight and it was my first day 

I was able to go without pot 

(cannabis). So I knew that I 

could do it,” she said. 

The exhibition’s creator Helen 

Linton said it is a particularly 

special show, as drug 

consumers, those in rehab, and 

workers in the addiction sector 

are all contributing. 

“[The exhibition] is different 

because it’s aimed at those with 

drug addiction. It’s great as well 

because they feel good about 

UNIQUE ART: Liz Cropp’s artwork which she plans to keep. She said the 

rainbow is God’s light and the footprints coming out of the sea is God 

carrying her away from a sea of emotion. 

contributing, often they get 

lumped in with mental health 

people. So they feel pretty 

special to have this exhibition,” 

she said. 

Ms Cropp said it was an 

incredible feeling for her to 

complete a goal she had set for 

herself. 

“Things like this [the 

exhibition], it could be a once 

in a lifetime opportunity. It’s 

the first time I’ve set myself 

a goal and I’ve actually been 

able to complete it,” she 

said. 

Ms Linton said she 

doesn’t know how many 

artists will contribute to the 

exhibition, or the number 

of artworks on display, as it 

is a big commitment for the 

contributors. 

“The number of pieces is 

Helen Linton 

Liz Cropp 

an unknown quantity at this 

stage, as they are quite critical 

of themselves. Some are out of 

town, and start off saying ‘I’ll 

bring in six’ but on the day only 

bring in a few because they 

didn’t like their others,” she 

said. 

The exhibition is opening at 

the Linwood Community Arts 

Centre on October 25, and will 

run until November 12. 

FIRST MEETING 

The newly-formed 

Coastal-Burwood Community 

Board will have its first meeting 

next Tuesday. The new board 

consists of a city councillor and 

two elected representatives from 

both Coastal and Burwood 

Wards. The meeting will be held 

on the corner of Beresford and 

Union Sts at 4.30pm. The first 

meeting of the Linwood-Central- 

Heathcote Community Board 

will meet next Wednesday at 

9am, with nine community 

representatives appointed across 

the three boards. 

ROAD REPAIRS 

The final section of repairs to 

damaged patches of Travis Rd, 

New Brighton, started yesterday. 

Work is concentrated near Blue 

Gum Pl, and is being carried out 

by the Stronger Christchurch 

Infrastructure Rebuild Team. 

Damaged patches of road between 

the Anzac Dr roundabout and 

Blue Gum Pl will also be repaired. 

The work is expected to take 

about two weeks. Meanwhile, the 

intersection of Hampshire St and 

Cheriton St, Aranui, will have its 

old wastewater system removed 

in the coming days. SCIRT will 

temporarily close the intersection 

over the next five days while 

work is carried out. The work is 

expected to finish on Saturday.

Hot pool views sought 

PEGASUS POST 

THE FLOOR is open to residents 

wanting to give their opinion on 

taking part in the next stage of 

the New Brighton hot salt water 

pools’ development. 

Development Christchurch 

Ltd, working alongside the city 

council, has come up with ideas 

for upgrading the existing whale 

paddling pool playground and 

developing the hot salt water 

pools’ facility. 

Both projects are based on 

community feedback provided 

during the New Brighton 

Suburban Master Plan process 

and the Long Term Plan. 

DCL Chief Executive Rob Hall 

said he is looking forward to 

hearing if the organisation is on 

track or not. 

“We now need to hear 

back from local residents and 

community groups to make sure 

we’re on the right track,” he said. 

New Brighton Pier and 

Foreshore Society deputy 

chairman Tim Sintes said DCL 

is interested to hear what the 

public wants to see happen with 

the pools’ project and the whale 

pool. 

“It’s just giving the public 

a chance to get involved with 

it. If they don’t do it now, and 

something goes later on, you get 

an ‘I told you so’,” he said. 

FEEDBACK WANTED: The city council is asking residents what 

they want to see for the hot salt water pools project. Some 

want to see a design similar to the St Clair pools in Dunedin 

(pictured). 

Mr Sintes said he imagined one 

of the talking points during the 

feedback process would be the 

cost of a family getting into the 

pools. 

Work on the new, substantially 

enlarged play area and hot salt 

water pools is part of the wider 

programme of regeneration 

happening in New Brighton. 

“This development needs to 

fit in with other community 

initiatives, plans for the 

revitalisation of the commercial 

centre of the suburb, the 

implementation of the Master 

Plan, work to understand future 

environmental issues and the 

wider regeneration of the New 

Brighton area,” said Mr Hall. 

Previously, the community 

had said they would like to see 

a design similar to the St 

Clair Hot Salt Water Pools in 

Dunedin. 

Feedback will inform further 

work on the project and more 

detailed planning of the play 

and pool concepts, which are 

expected to be presented to the 

city council for consideration by 

the end of the year. 

Consultation closes on 

November 5 at 5pm. 

NO-GO: The CDHB is warning people to not collect or eat 

shellfish like oysters from the east coast.

Toxic shellfish 

• By Annabelle Dick 

THE CANTERBURY District 

Health Board has issued a public 

warning to not collect or eat 

shellfish from the coastline 

between Motunau Beach and 

Akaroa Harbour after toxic 

shellfish were discovered. 

The shellfish were discovered at 

Sumner Beach and the warning 

says not to eat shellfish from the 

east coast. 

CDHB medical officer of health 

Dr Daniel Williams said routine 

tests on shellfish samples from 

the beach showed high levels of 

Diarrhetic Shellfish Poisoning 

toxins of up to 0.26mg/kg. 

“This is above the safe limit of 

0.16mg/kg set by the Ministry 

for Primary Industries. Anyone 

eating shellfish from this area is 

potentially at risk of illness,” Dr 

Williams said. 

“Mussels, oysters, tuatua, pipi, 

toheroa, cockles, scallops, cat’s 

eyes, kina (sea urchin) and all 

other bivalve shellfish should not 

be eaten.” 

He said cooking shellfish does 

not remove the toxin and it can 

cause diarrhoea, vomiting, nausea 

and abdominal cramps. 

Dr Williams said symptoms 

of diarrhetic shellfish poisoning 

usually appear within half an 

hour and can last for 24 hours. 

Toxin level monitoring will 

continue and the CDHB will let 

the public know when shellfish 

are safe to eat.

SCIRT programme on the home straight 

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

is almost complete and we’re aiming to finish construction in December. 

The City Council and NZ Transport Agency will continue completing ongoing repairs 

to the city's earthquake-damaged infrastructure after SCIRT. 

Progress in your neighbourhood 

• We’ve finished connecting homes in Aranui to 

their new resilient vacuum wastewater system. 

Storm water and roading work will continue until 

the end of the year. 

• Pages Road, between Anzac Drive and 

Breezes Road is back to one-way towards 

the city, while we complete the final round of 

wastewater repairs and rebuild the road. 

• We’ve almost completed our extensive repairs 

to the wastewater, storm water, fresh water and 

roading networks in Parklands and expect to be 

finished by the end of November. 

• Wastewater repairs on Woodham Road, 

Linwood are 80% complete. 

• New Brighton will still see major works to the 

wastewater network and crews repairing small 

sections of road until December. 

Your support is helping 

us to get the job done. 

Thank you from the 

SCIRT team. 

Road works and detours are tough on nearby businesses. 

Please go the extra mile to support your local businesses.

Dementia Care 

at Admatha 

At Admatha Dementia Care we are 

privileged and pleased to be able to offer 

care in a beautiful, homely environment. 

Our homes are small, with no more than 

16 people. The homes are cosy, easy to 

move around, familiar, and there are just 

familiar faces around. 

At Admatha Dementia Care Rest 

Home, there are two small homes set 

within a beautiful villa. The homes are 

bright and warm with views out over the 

established trees and gardens. Residents 

walk outside into the gardens as they 

please. Small homes mean we have more 

one to one attention and care. We watch 

the everyday activity on the street and 

the boys walking home from Shirley 

Boys High School. We are a part of our 

neighbourhood. We are safe and secure 

and part of our community. 

Engaging in regular, meaningful, 

activity is very important to us at 

Admatha. A special favourite, is 

establishing our summer vegetable 

gardens. It is fun for all to work together 

in preparing the beds, planting the 

seedlings and nurturing plants to grow. 

We are then able to harvest throughout 

the year, gathering vegetables and herbs 

to make into delicious soups and salads 

together in our open plan kitchens. 

We are especially lucky at Admatha 

to have recently had a new and very 

special member of our Admatha family 

join with us. Merlin is a five month old 

Labrador puppy who we are training to 

be a dementia therapy dog. Merlin loves 

frolicking in the garden and interacting 

with residents under supervision, 

providing opportunity for reminiscence 

and one to one conversations about pets, 

home and family. 

Merlin has already made some firm 

friends among our residents, with cuddles, 

questions, conversations, memories, 

jokes and laughter accompanying his 

visits to the lounge. 

We welcome your enquiry and are 

happy to meet with people any time. 

Please feel free to visit us onsite or call to 

make a time to come and chat with our 

manager and experience what Admatha 

has to offer.

STAR GUIDANCE: Paralympic swimming world record holder Sophie Pascoe 

gave a speech at Mairehau High last week. The Kiwi Paralympian told a group 

of about 100 students from six schools her story of battling adversity and 

becoming a world champion. Mairehau was the second of 10 schools she will 

visit as part of a nationwide tour. After the speech, Pascoe posed for photos 

and allowed the students to wear any of the three gold and two silver medals 

she won at the Rio Paralympic Games.

of jellybeans in a jar and estimated the weight of a pumpkin. The school held different 

activities for each year group. The more senior pupils took on measurement activities and

PEGASUS POST 

Marlene Bennetts 

Children’s author writes book 

Author Marlene Bennetts, 78, has finished writing her 

latest children’s book, The Little Drummer Boy, to 

raise money for her earthquake-damaged church in 

Opawa. She spoke to Caitlin Miles about her roving 

childhood and writing her memoirs 

Can you tell me about The 

Little Drummer Boy? 

I was approached to write 

something for the church in 

November last year that could 

be ready for Christmas. I sat on 

it for a while wondering what I 

could write and Evelyn Hille said 

to me why not write something 

on The Little Drummer Boy and 

so that’s what I did. 

How long have you belonged 

to the Opawa Community 

Church? 

I’ve lived in Opawa for about 

eight and half years and belonged 

to the church for at least 

six and half I think. 

How long have you been 

writing? 

I have been writing for about 

30 years now, children’s books 

and poems mostly. 

What made you want to be a 

writer? 

I’ve always wanted to write. I 

hated poetry. I was always interested 

in reading. We didn’t have 

libraries in the one-room schools 

so I didn’t get my first book until 

I was eight. It was Peter Pan – I 

loved that book, my grand-kids 

have it now. When I was 

growing up I used to tell my 

brothers stories to get them to 

do things for me when I didn’t 

want to. 

How many siblings do you 

have? 

I have two younger brothers. 

Did you grow up in Christchurch? 

No I didn’t. We moved roughly 

15 times so it’s hard to pinpoint 

where I grew up. I was born in 

Westport, though. 

Why did you move so often? 

My father worked in sawmills, 

so we moved around a lot. We 

were in a lot of small towns that 

only had one-classroom schools. 

Most of them had basically the 

same text books throughout, so 

I would read a couple of chapters 

ahead before starting at a new 

school and the teachers would 

think I was really clever until 

they caught up to the chapter I 

was on. 

Were you a bit cheeky in 

AUTHOR: Marlene Bennetts has written 28 books over her 

30-year career.

school Marlene? 

I had a strong character and 

got bored quickly I think is what 

it was. I ended up being prefect 

of my high school so I can’t have 

been that bad! Just a little cheeky. 

Was it hard moving from 

school to school? 

It wasn’t so bad when I was 

young. I do remember this one 

boy used to ride a white horse to 

school and every day my brother 

and I would have to run home 

because he would chase us on 

his horse and get it to nip at 

us. When I turned 11, I started 

to realise that my family were 

considered low on the social 

class because our dad worked in 

the sawmill. My dad left school 

at 14-and-a-half but he was very 

resilient. 

That was young to leave 

school. 

It wasn’t that uncommon back 

then. My parents were young 

when they had me. My mum 

was 17 and my dad was 18. Mum 

had all three of us before she 

was 21. We kind of grew up with 

our parents, they were like older 

siblings. Well, they were parents 

first but you know. It was great. 

You see I have a lot to write 

about for my memoirs. 

How will you write everything 

from your memory? 

I have kept journals for the 

last 30 or 40 years, I use them to 

write stories and poems too. I 

can reflect on what people were 

wearing during the time. How 

they wore their hair, things like 

that. I write about what I know 

so I recall on my memories a lot 

which is what I’m doing for my 

memoirs.

to rebuild community church 

Did you end up settling anywhere 

for a while? 

No. Even after we got married, 

we kept moving around. We 

used to buy houses and do them 

up before we sold them on. So 

we were moving all around the 

North Island. Then in 1987, we 

heard of a wee cottage in a place 

called Blackball and I said, as 

long as I don’t have to use a long 

drop, I don’t mind and it had an 

indoor toilet so we bought it. I 

had never heard of Blackball in 

my life and we just packed up 

and went there. I hadn’t been in 

the South Island since I was nine 

and my husband had never been 

so it was pretty big. We bought 

the house for $10,000 – you 

wouldn’t dream of that now. 

Did you start writing when 

you lived there? 

Yes. My husband decided to 

retire when we moved there so 

he was 56. I use to have a room 

in the house which looked out 

onto the mountains where I 

would go to write. That was 

my special spot. We had our 

children by that stage but they 

were all grown up. I would just 

shut myself off and Hec would 

keep supporting me. 

Were there times when you 

wanted to give up on writing? 

I was 48 when I wrote my first 

poem called Stolen Virginity. I 

went to this group where people 

read out their poems and had 

them criticised by other writers. 

These were respected and widely 

published writers and I was 

sitting there wondering why I 

was there and what I was doing. 

I got up and read it out and came 

home saying to my husband 

there is no way I am ever going 

back there, I’m not writing 

anymore, and he managed to 

convince me it wasn’t that bad 

so I went back the next month 

and it was the best thing I ever 

did. For every acceptance letter 

I got for a piece, I got about 

10 rejections. So it was pretty 

common for me to say I’m not 

doing this anymore and chuck 

it all in the bin. And Hec, my 

husband, would pull it all out 

again and convince me to keep 

writing. If it wasn’t for him, I 

wouldn’t be talking to you today. 

HER ROCK: 

Marlene’s late 

husband Hec 

was her biggest 

supporter, 

encouraging 

her to keep 

writing when she 

considered giving 

up several times. 

He was always my rock. 

Your husband seems like a big 

part of your motivation, how 

did you two meet? 

We were doing high jump 

and that was very different then 

compared to what it is now. We 

used to jump and fall into a pit of 

sawdust. So anyway, I was doing 

high jump and I stopped just 

short of the pit and tore a whole 

load of ligaments in my knee. I 

needed surgery but it was more 

risky back then. I had wanted 

to be in the Air Force but that 

wasn’t likely and, after that, it 

certainly wasn’t going to happen. 

So I ended up moving 800 

miles (1287km) away to live 

with my Grandmother to work 

as a secretary – I was 16 at 

the time. Hec was working in 

the garage and he was 23 so it 

worked out. 

What have been some of your 

highlights? 

I wrote this poem called The 

Miner’s Widow and I got a letter 

from a man who had picked up 

a copy and he said he had read 

it crying because it was the tale 

of his mum. That was really 

touching. 

You received a New Zealand 

Order of Merit? 

Yes, that was a real shock and 

an honour to receive – I couldn’t 

believe it. I read the letter and 

wondered what I was receiving it 

for. I never dreamed I would get 

one. I just wished my dad could 

have been there to see it. 

How often do you write each 

day? 

I’m not sure how many a day, 

but about 15 hours a week now. 

I’ve taken a bit of a step back 

from how much I used to do 

but I still work away on my 

laptop.

CONTINUING EDUCATION 

Pasifika Trades Training leads 

to new career for Charity 

Receiving a Pasifika Trades Training 

scholarship has been a game-changer for 

Charity Ierome. After completing a 12- 

week Essential Civil Skills course at Ara 

Institute of Canterbury for free, she now 

has a clear career path and a new outlook. 

“The biggest thing it’s done for me is 

build up my confidence. Before I felt like 

nobody and now I know that I can achieve 

and what I want to do in the future,” she 

says. 

Charity used to work in the butchery at 

Pak n Save, but knew it wasn’t what she 

wanted to do long-term. Her Dad found 

out about the Pasifika Trades Training 

scholarship through Reverend Fitifiti 

Lautua, a mentor for the programme. 

With so many opportunities in 

Canterbury, Charity says that trades 

training was a good career move and it 

made financial sense. 

“It was a chance for me to do something 

for myself and make a better living for my 

family. My Nana was my inspiration. I 

wanted to make sure she was well looked 

after back in Samoa,” she says. 

Studying for 12 weeks full-time was a 

big commitment for Charity, who also 

continued to work full-time. However, the 

backing of her tutor and classmates helped 

her to succeed. 

“My tutor had experienced the kind of 

difference that a qualification can make in 

your life and he was a real role model. My 

class became my second family,” she says. 

The course was exactly what Charity 

needed to get into the industry. It included 

the core practical skills and certifications 

that employers look for, and provided 

support to enter the workforce. 

“The most valuable thing I learned was 

how to get work-ready. I was taught how 

to approach an interview and what to put 

in my CV. We also had potential employers 

come to talk to us,” she says. 

Just two weeks after completing her 

qualification, Charity was offered a job at 

City Care. She is now a Traffic Management 

Site Supervisor, wants to work towards 

a degree and has her sights set on a 

management role. 

“It’s like I’m on a totally different planet 

now. Studying has changed who I am and 

it has changed my family’s future,” she says.

FOCUS ON HEALTH 

Are you one of 

the 70% with 

excess Candida 

Do you suffer from any of 

the following symptoms? 

Heart burn, indigestion, feeling tired 

often, low energy, gas, constipation or 

diarrhoea, abdominal cramps, frequent 

urination, thrush, oral thrush (white 

coated tongue), sore throat, fungal skin 

infections and rashes, jock itch, chronic 

disease among others are just some of the 

common symptoms. 

A causative factor for all these symptoms 

and more can be a yeast organism 

called Candida albicans. It is often 

underestimated what a profound effect it 

can have on our health and wellbeing. 

It is normal and beneficial to have 

some Candida in the gut where it is kept 

under control by the good gut bacteria or 

probiotics that feed on this yeast. However, 

using antibiotics without probiotic 

supplementation, sickness, poor diet, 

insufficient stomach acid and medications 

are some of the factors that can upset this 

delicate balance and allow the Candida to 

thrive. 

The Candida yeast often enters the blood 

stream as a fungus. Symptoms will vary 

depending on its location in the body. If it 

enters the brain, it can cause depression, 

anxiety and foggy thinking. Some 

researchers believe the Candida fungus 

can release a pleomorphic microorganism 

or virus that’s form changes depending 

on its environment. This is believed to 

be a factor in cancer and other chronic 

health conditions. However, it is the 

body’s weakened immune system and 

toxic environment that is the real cause of 

disease. 

The natural health advisers at 

Marshall’s Health and Natural Therapy 

can provide you with a detailed 

nutritional protocol to cleanse the excess 

candida and its fungus from the body, 

and improve your overall health and 

wellbeing. Visit them at 110 Seaview Rd, 

New Brighton. Phone 388 5757. We are 

always happy to help! 

Forgetting Things? 

Surprising Advice! 

Brain and memory changes happen to 

everyone around the age of 50 or so. 

Four reasons why the brain 

‘ages’ 

1. Our age-related hormones 

decline 

2. Living a sedentary lifestyle 

3. Lacking mental & physical 

activity 

4. Poor nutrition & obesity 

Factors 2, 3 and 4 are under 

YOUR control! 

Exercise is SO important for 

cell regeneration. 

In a recent U.S. study, those 

who exercised for 15 minutes 

three times a week reduced 

their risk for dementia by onethird. 

“Moderate exercise is the 

closest thing we have to a magic 

wellness bullet for everyone,” 

said William Thies, of the 

Alzheimer’s Association for 

medical and scientific affairs. 

“Moderate physical activity 

has all kinds of benefits and 

almost no downside.” 

The Aircycle exerciser was 

designed to boost circulation 

and keep nutrients and 

oxygen flowing to the cells. 

Well nourished cells aid 

regeneration in all parts of the

Are you Magnesium 

deficient? 

Minerals are the building 

blocks of good health. Some 

minerals are only needed in 

trace amounts where others like 

magnesium are needed in much 

larger amounts and on a regular 

basis to prevent deficiency and 

maintain optimum health. 

A large number of us do not 

obtain sufficient magnesium 

from our diet and may notice 

some of the common signs 

of deficiency. Some of the 

more common symptoms that 

may be caused by insufficient 

magnesium are: leg and muscle 

cramps, twitches, muscle pain, 

muscle fatigue and weakness, 

tremors of hands, blurred 

vision, restlessness, poor sleep, 

raised and/or unstable blood 

pressure, poor circulation, 

irregular heartbeat, shortness 

of breath, swallowing problems, 

dizziness, headaches, anxiety, 

agitation, irritability, seizures, 

poor concentration and many 

more. 

Although many young people 

now show signs of magnesium 

deficiency symptoms 

generally worsen as we age 

due to our digestive system 

being less efficient. Taking a 

magnesium supplement of 

sufficient strength may be a 

sensible option to top up our 

vital magnesium levels. Not 

all magnesium supplements 

however are well absorbed by 

everyone. Luckily a new marine 

sourced magnesium has been 

found that offers good levels of 

absorbable magnesium as well 

as many trace nutrients that are 

low in the diet but essential for 

good health.

HEALTH & BEAUTY 

Cramping pain in my 

leg when I try to walk 

Intermittent Claudication 

“This is different from “night-cramps” Ietje van Stolk, (physiotherapist 

at Physical Sense and the centre for Senior Well-being) explains. 

This kind of cramping (sometimes called 

“window -shopping legs”) is triggered by 

normal exertion of the leg muscles and 

is typically caused by obstruction of the 

arteries. Sufferers have to find themselves a 

regular excuse to stop for a while to allow 

the blood flow to reach the cramped up 

muscles. 

The official name for this condition is 

Intermittent Claudication. Claudication is 

pain and/or cramping in the lower leg due 

to inadequate blood flow to the muscles. 

The pain usually causes the person to 

limp. The word “claudication” comes from 

the Latin “claudicare” meaning to limp. 

Claudication typically is felt while walking, 

and subsides with rest. It is commonly 

referred to as “intermittent” claudication 

because it comes and goes with exertion 

and rest. In severe claudication, the pain is 

also felt at rest. 

It is a painful condition that really 

“cramps people’s lifestyle”. The pain free 

walking distance tends to get shorter as the 

condition progresses. If you suffer from 

this condition it is crucial to understand 

that the body actually finds a way to 

increase the blood flow to the legs IF 

THE DEMAND is there. It is like every

PLUS 

thing in the body……..”use it or lose it”. 

Unfortunately many people with this 

condition end up in a vicious cycle; the 

pain stops the walking, and the lack of 

walking increases the problem. 

Exercise is recommended to greatly 

reduce symptoms and to increase 

pain free walking distance. Eight years 

ago on request of the vascular nurse 

in Christchurch hospital, Physical 

Sense started a two weekly circuit for 

Intermittent Claudication patients. The 

pilot program started with 50 clients. 

• 82% of all clients, experienced 

improvement in their walking distance 

• Quite a number of clients doubled their 

walking distance, for some it even became 

limitless. 

• After a year 88% of clients were still active 

• There was an exceptionally low dropout 

rate of only 8% 

• The 18% who did not notice a difference 

in relation to their walking distance still 

enjoyed all the other benefits of exercise 

(to heart, lungs, sugar levels, bone health, 

balance and mood etc.) 

People always start in a group, so they 

get the benefit of a guided introduction to 

more exercise and the use of the gym. In

just for giving it a try 

the groups we are looking at 50-80+ year 

olds that are giving their legs a workout 

by using steppers, treadmills, stationary 

bikes and other exercise stations. That way 

they also benefit from working out with 

people who suffer the same problems. “It 

is amazing the support and wisdom people 

receive from each other” Ietje says. In this 

“circuit setup” every client can work in 

their own tempo, and people simply sit 

down and have a rest when the “cramping 

in the leg” becomes too much. Some 

people stay in the group and some choose 

to use the gym by themselves to keep on 

top of their claudication. 

At Physical Sense they have been going 

strong with the Intermittent Claudication 

class ever since the first class eight years 

ago. 

You can try the classes for FREE. If you 

want to continue and you have WINZ 

support, WINZ usually pays for the classes 

(as WINZ is VERY supportive of these 

classes).

AUTOMOTIVE PROFESSIONALS 

A name synonymous with the 

motor vehicle industry 

As a youngster, Trevor Crowe always tinkered with cars. After completing his 

mechanics engineering apprenticeship, he established Lichfield Motors and later 

Trevor Crowe Motors, obtaining the Subaru franchise in 1988. Crowe Subaru was 

the top selling Subaru dealership in New Zealand for many years. 

In 2000, Trevor sold his Subaru franchise to 

concentrate on his passion of motor vehicle maintenance 

and repairs, and motor racing in his spare time. 

“Trevor enjoys making and fixing things,” advises 

Josh Mitchell, Car Sales Manager at CroweSport. “He 

sold the franchise so he could specialise in repairs but 

so many customers kept asking to buy a car that he 

began importing second-hand cars, opening a car yard 

beside his workshop.” 

Josh joined Trevor as an apprentice mechanic when 

he left school. He learnt the ins and outs of Subarus 

while also helping out in the car yard. 

“Customers liked talking to a mechanic who could 

answer their questions about Subarus and how they 

worked,” explains Josh who admits to being as fanatical 

about motor vehicles and engines as Trevor is. 

After the 2011 February earthquake, the business 

took over a vacated business next door and Josh took 

responsibility for the buying and selling of cars. 

Each day, Josh sifts through the details of around 200 

cars at Japanese auctions, selecting vehicles reflecting 

quality. He then requests their Japanese agent to 

thoroughly inspect each car and recommend the best 

which CroweSport imports. With a new law governing 

the emission levels of imported vehicles, only Subarus 

that are 2004 or newer are imported. 

Around forty vehicles a month come into the 

CroweSport workshop where they are serviced and any 

repairs carried out before being placed in the yard for 

sale. 

“Our customers have peace of mind when purchasing 

our cars as they know they have been thoroughly 

checked and are in good condition,” explains Josh. 

Josh says that the standard of cars available from Japan 

is wide so they only deal with one company. This allows 

them to have an excellent relationship, building trust in 

their import agent who checks the cars at auction for 

CroweSport. 

Trevor and Josh both currently races Subaru 

Imprezas, and Trevor is building a new ‘Subaru Special’ 

race car, which might explain why CroweSport really 

are Subaru specialists, though they repair and service 

all makes and models. 

CroweSport is a privately owned and operated 

automotive sales and service centre. They sell secondhand 

Subaru and are looking to the future with Nissan 

Leaf electric vehicles. CroweSport can be found at 518 

Moorhouse Avenue (between Fitzgerald Avenue and 

Ferry Road). 

To contact CroweSport telephone 03 379 7615 or 

email: boss@crowesport.co.nz. Their website is: www. 

crowesport.co.nz; and like them on Facebook where 

they regularly update motorsport news and events.
