Reece Falck was at the top of his game in Auckland last week, winning the 

national under-14 singles tennis title at the Scarbro Tennis Centre. Falck, 14, 

defeated tournament favourite Nick Beamish 6-0, 6-2 in what was a 

one-sided final. •Turn to page 15

EASTERN schools face 

a possible two to six-year 

wait before they will get 

reduced speed limits. 

The city council has 

only $120,000 a year to 

spend implementing 

school speed zones on 

roads by schools. 

The cost covers up to 

four zones across the 

city a year. 

That means many 

schools will face long 

waits – including Haeata 

Community Campus, 

Marshland Primary 

School, Queenspark Primary 

School and Mairehau 

Primary School. 

A school zone is an 

area around a school 

where the speed is 

reduced to 40km/h 

during times when 

pupils are arriving and 

leaving. Any other time 

the usual speed limit 

applies. 

Coastal-Burwood 

Community Board 

member Linda Stewart 

said in particular Chisnallwood 

Intermediate, 

Avondale School and 

Waitakiri Primary 

School needed slower 

speed zones. 

“They need them there 

because they are now 

crucial schools in the 

area. Chisnallwood’s future 

is not sealed yet and 

I think there will be a 

lot of backlash from the 

community if they get 

rid of it. It’s well-loved,” 

she said. 

“It’s a safety issue as 

well. Burwood Rd, in 

particular, has been a 

nightmare with demolition 

trucks coming back 

and forth. Marshland 

will become a crucial 

area for the safety of the 

kids I think.”

EDITOR’S 

DESK 

PEGASUS POST 

News....................................3-10 

THE CITY council needs to 

urgently boost the amount of 

money it has to implement 

40km/h zones outside schools. 

We reveal today the city council 

has a paltry $120,000 a year to put 

in school zones – and at about $30k 

a pop that means only four schools 

across the city a year will get them. 

Not good enough. 

Schools in the eastern suburbs 

face a two to six-year wait. 

That’s simply not good enough. 

The poor old east continues 

to miss out; the pace of the road 

repairs has been pedestrian and 

the planned investment and boost 

to New Brighton is still light years 

away. 

It’s about the time the council as 

a group started advocating for the 

east. 

But on a positive note, good to 

see young Burwood Park tennis 

player Reece Falck win the under 

14 national singles title. – Barry

Playground finally under way 

• By Fraser Walker-Pearce 

RESIDENTS IN Waitikiri are 

still waiting for a playground 

to be completed that they were 

promised two years ago. 

Construction has finally started 

on a long-awaited playground 

which was initially consulted on 

in February 2015. 

More than $130,000 has been 

set aside for the Waitikiri Square 

Landscape Plan, which includes 

the installation of playground 

equipment, new trees, a football 

goal, seating, and a bike track. 

The city council said the 

plan would be completed by 

Christmas, but 

work had only 

just started on 

the playground 

at the beginning 

of this month, 

Waitikiri 

Residents 

Association 

chairman Rod 

Miller said. 

“They’ve started building the 

kids playground, I think it was 

starting to get built when we 

left [on holiday] 10 days ago, 

but they’ve stopped again for 

the Christmas break – at least 

they’re under way. 

“They started the ground 

UNDER WAY: Construction has finally started on the Waitikiri Square playground. Residents 

have waited two years. 

PHOTOS: GEOFF SLOAN 

works towards September, 

October, but a year ago they 

said it would be completed by 

Christmas and it hasn’t been,” 

he said. 

The city council consulted 

the public about the project in 

February 2015. 

Coastal-Burwood Community 

Board member Linda Stewart 

(left) said there had been no 

updates to the board from the 

city council on the plan since 

Pegasus Post last published an 

article on the subject. 

“I just know the community 

was underwhelmed with 

the budget, it was measly. I 

support the residents on this, 

they bought a section there 

[Waitikiri] on a concept that 

in future it would include a 

playground, and if it hasn’t gone 

to schedule, which it hasn’t, then 

there has been hold-ups there,” 

she said. 

In a letter to the Burwood- 

Pegasus Community Board last 

year Mayor Lianne Dalziel said 

the Waitikiri Square Landscape 

Plan had funding allocated and 

was due to be installed by the 

end of the year. 

In May Pegasus Post reported 

that the proposed playground 

would be installed by Christmas 

last year. 

At the time, the city council 

said they were still in the detailed 

design stage, and the projected 

end date was “Christmas 

[2016].” 

In Brief 

QE II CEREMONY 

A ceremony to mark the start 

of construction of the new 

Eastern Recreation and Sport 

Centre will be held today at 

10am. Mayor Lianne Dalziel 

and city councillor David East 

will be joined by members of the 

Coastal-Burwood Community 

Board and the wider project 

team. Following speeches from 

Ms Dalziel and Cr East, there 

will be a sod-turning ceremony 

that includes the handing over of 

a sapling in conjunction with Te 

Ngai Tuahuriri. The ceremony 

will set the stage for Apollo 

Projects to begin work on the 

site. The eagerly-awaited 

4573 sq m facility will return 

swimming and fitness amenities 

to QE II Park and is expected 

to open mid-2018. The previous 

facility was badly damaged 

in the 2011 earthquakes and 

demolished in 2012. 

ARANUI ROBBERY 

A man was robbed of his 

wallet and cellphone as he 

walked along Portsmouth St in 

Aranui last week. The man was 

approached by two others at 

about 6.30pm last Thursday. He 

was threatened with a knife and 

his wallet and cellphone were 

taken. He was not injured in the 

robbery.

History of famous North New Brighton 

The Mauger family has owned and 

developed properties in the eastern 

suburbs for more than 60 years. Warner 

and Patsy Mauger bought 60 acres of 

land in 1990 and developed it into what 

is now called Northshore. And now, 

the Mauger family’s history has been 

documented in a book. 


THE FAMILY responsible for 

many property developments 

in North New Brighton and 

Northshore can now sit down to 

read their own story. 

The Mauger family has owned 

property in the eastern suburbs 

since Ron and Jean Mauger 

bought a property on Rookwood 

Ave in 1945 for just £60. 

Now, Ron and Jean’s son 

Warner and wife Patsy own 

Maugers – a company with 

many divisions and arms including 

residential and commercial 

property and building projects 

across the city. 

Warner and Patsy were raised 

in North New Brighton in the 

1930s and, by 1955, Warner 

was managing the well-known 

Maugers Garage on the Bower 

Ave and Travis Rd corner on

behalf of Ron. It was the couple’s 

first business venture. 

The garage was later sold to 

petroleum giants BP and a station 

is situated on the corner to 

this day. 

Warner’s late father Ron was 

a house builder and began the 

family’s business in 1945. He 

went on to purchase and build

liner QE2. 

properties in popular eastern 

suburbs streets such as Travis 

Rd, Bower Ave, Bassett St, Pages 

Rd, Beach Rd, Shaw Ave and 

Bowhill Rd. 

The Mauger family net has 

now been cast far and wide, with 

Warner and Patsy’s own children 

Philip, Timothy, Stephen and 

Penelope also having families of 

their own. 

One of Philip’s sons, Jordan, 

was the star of television programme 

The Bachelor last year. 

Warner and Patsy live in Eastwood 

Rise, Northshore, one of 

many subdivisions that Warner 

started developing in the early 

1990s. 

The family also does a great

sold to BP and a petrol station is still there today. 

deal of charitable work, which is 

not often talked about. 

After Warner suffered an eye 

injury requiring surgery in 1964, 

Ron and Jean donated a set of 

surgical equipment, along with 

a supporting holder designed for 

infants undergoing retina surgery, 

to the Canterbury District 

Health Board’s ophthalmology 

department a year after Warner’s 

surgery. 

Later, Warner and Patsy 

donated a Kowa Fundus (retina 

scanning) camera and committed 

more than $470,000 of their 

own money to the Canterbury 

Charity Hospital for a “muchneeded” 

expansion. 

In 2011, Warner and Patsy 

donated Olympus Endoscopic 

Ultrasound equipment to the 

Department of Gastroenterology 

at Christchurch Hospital after 

reading a newspaper article on 

the subject. 

It allowed the hospital to test 

bowel and liver cancer patients 

on-site rather the patients having 

to fly to Auckland for the 

same test. Some of the patients 

who, before that, had to fly to 

Auckland for treatment were too 

sick to do so, and were forced to 

stay put. 

By June of 2012, the machine 

had provided the specialised 

investigation tools to meet the 

needs of 160 cancer patients in 

the South Island. 

But the Maugers’ generosity 

did not stop there. 

In 2015 they knew the Canterbury 

Charity Hospital Trust 

needed more space following the 

earthquakes’ increased strain on 

the community and its health, 

and so injected the trust with 

more capital. 

In a charity hospital newsletter 

shortly after the Maugers’ 

donation, it stated “the Maugers’ 

have not only provided the 

hall at Innovation Park at no 

charge as the venue again for 

the Canstaff Charity Hospital 

Christmas Ball but have also 

bought a house next door to the 

hospital with the potential to 

expand the hospital’s services in 

the future.”

family documented in publication 

The property situated on 

Leacroft St was bought by the 

Warner and Patsy Mauger Charitable 

Foundation for more than 

$470,000. 

Canterbury Charity Hospital 

chairman Philip Bagshaw said 

the generosity and donations of 

the Mauger family have assisted 

the hospital’s running for a number 

of years. 

He said two of the new wards 

at the hospital will be named in 

honour of the Maugers. 

“We’re about to name two of 

the new buildings in their honour. 

One is going to be the Patsy 

Mauger House where we can do 

endoscopy, dentistry and counselling 

and the new one next to 

that will be the Warner Mauger 

House. That will principally 

house things like dental surgery 

and a dental laboratory for fixing 

and mending dentures,” he said. 

In 2013, Mt Pleasant author 

Paul Corliss was contacted by 

Warner in the hopes of collating 

the family’s history and having it 

printed in a book. 

Corliss was “more than happy 

to oblige” and recently completed 

the three-year project. He has 

now published the more than 

500-page book, titled Mauger 

Milestones: The Legacy of a North 

Brighton Family. 

“Warner and Patsy fly very 

much under the philanthropy 

radar but contribute enormous 

sums to charities with a deliberate 

lack of fanfare and little 

publicity,” Corliss said. 

The book details the family’s 

rise in success from the early 

1900s all the way up to present 

day, when Warner and Patsy 

opened the Maugers Property 

project Innovation Park in Templeton. 

Prior to being Innovation Park, 

the site was used as a school for 

intellectually disabled children, 

known as the Templeton Farm 

Colony. 

In 1967 it was disestablished, 

and completely closed down in 

the 1990s. After both the CDHB 

and Ngai Tahu attempted and 

failed to turn the land into 

residential properties, it was subsequently 

sold to the Maugers. 

BLANK CANVAS: In 1990, the Mauger’s 

Northshore land was a desolate area of grass and 

weeds. Now it is a thriving subdivision.

North Brighton Family 

HISTORY: The Hay’s dinosaur slide was part of the 

Christchurch Santa Parade until it was sold to the Ferrymead 

Heritage Park where it was chainsawed into bits. Warner 

Mauger paid a contractor to fix, clean and paint the slide, but 

when he offered it back to the city council it was rejected. 

“We got advised by a land 

agent that the old Templeton 

Hospital and its site were up for 

sale, from the CDHB, through 

Ngai Tahu. No doubt others were 

also interested, and we literally 

only had the weekend to assess 

it and make our minds up – no 

time to do the usual homework. 

The boys will tell you, they 

weren’t happy with the time 

available to make the decision,” 

Warner said. 

Initially the idea for a business 

park was rejected by the city 

council, but in 2010 after a 

change of tack their case was 

heard by a commissioner, the 

decision was reversed and 

the Maugers were allowed to 

continue with Innovation 

Park. 

“Innovation Park was built 

upon a belief that to achieve 

great things people need a great 

environment to work in 

. . . companies, collaborating on 

projects and establishing a powerful 

network of complementary 

business, while employees are 

inspired to explore new ideas 

and possibilities while enjoying 

a host of outstanding amenities,” 

Warner said. 

Following in the property 

development footsteps of his late 

father Ron, and after the sale of 

the family garage to BP, Warner 

bought 60 acres of land in North 

Beach, behind Waimairi Beach, 

for “about one million dollars” in 

1991 and named the subsequent 

developments Northshore. 

“My mother thought I was 

absolutely mad as it was just 

swampy hills, tussock, broom, 

lupin and old man macrocarpa,” 

Warner said. 

The book states that from the 

first truck loads of sand excavated 

from the site up until last year, 

about 250 houses have since been 

built and sold in the Northshore 

subdivision. 

Patsy and Warner also have a 

passion for keeping history alive, 

as can be seen with the resident 

green dinosaur in their garden. 

The fibreglass dinosaur 

childrens’ slide originally sat on 

the Farmers department store 

roof, but after it was gifted to the 

Ferrymead Heritage Park, it was 

chainsawed into pieces. 

Warner was on the board 

of directors at the park at the 

time, and thought the dino slide 

should be saved as it was part of 

the city’s history. 

“We took it around to the 

contracting workshop at Tahuna 

St and with the help of one of 

the Maugers’ workers Roger 

Westerink, fibre-glassed, painted 

and rebuilt it. When the restoration 

project was complete I rang 

parks and reserves at the city 

council and said ‘the historic 

dinosaur slide is all ready to go, 

what park do you want me to put 

it in?’ . . . the offer was rejected 

on health and safety grounds,” 

he said. 

The slide now sits next to 

Warner and Patsy’s home and is 

used by local children whenever 

the Maugers host street parties.

From climbing with Sir Edmund Hillary to walking on his own

achievements and receiving a Queen’s Service Medal 

Firstly Geoff, 

congratulations on receiving 

your medal. 

I was quite astonished, it was 

quite a surprise. 

Really? Did you know that 

you had been nominated for 

it? 

I was told someone had 

nominated me at the end of 

October. I’m not sure who it is 

but I was a little embarrassed 

because, while I had worked 

hard for mountaineering and 

conservation and skiing, so 

have a hell of a lot of other 

people. There should be a couple 

of thousand other people 

that I know of that should 

deserve it just as much or more 

than me. 

How did you get started in 

conservation work? 

Well, I was always a bit of a 

wanderer. We lived in Upper 

Riccarton near the airport 

and we would go up around 

the countryside setting rabbit 

snares and collecting, dear 

I say it, terrible things like 

collecting bird eggs! I even 

HELPING US,

COMMUNITY 

Drop off or buy 

collected bird eggs from the 

main runway at Christchurch 

Airport. I’ve always been 

interested in birds. I started off 

making a birds’ egg collection, 

which is a terrible no-no these 

days, but a lot of kids did when 

I was at Riccarton School. I’ve 

always looked at the Port Hills 

and tried to get my brothers 

and sisters to take me there 

and they rarely would but, as 

I got older, I went with school 

friends and I could see the 

mountains way out to the west. 

We had a school trip to the 

West Coast and we came right 

through Arthur’s Pass and I 

saw snow up on the mountains 

and glaciers and thought, oh, 

isn’t that amazing and that I’d 

love to get up in that country, 

but I was a bit small to do that 

at that stage. So I had an interest 

from a very early age, but 

I’ve been a member of Forest 

& Bird since 1938, and I’m 90 

now so 79 years. 

You’ve also been interested 

in the mountains for a long 

time?

was quite something. We saw 

these back country huts so 

they were places to stay and 

the people that owned the huts 

said you kids should belong 

to the club because you’re 

using our facilities and very 

shortly after that I joined the 

mountaineering club, in 1945 I 

think it was. 

Did you work in the 

conservation sector? 

No. This was purely just a 

hobby. I worked for medical 

supplies’ companies. The 

whole of my life was spent 

in the marketing of research 

medicines to doctors and 

chemists. I’ve been retired for 

32 years now.

leads to New Year’s honour 

You were a foundation member 

of the Craigieburn Valley 

Ski Club as well? 

I suggested to the mountaineering 

club that there were quite 

a group of young members who 

had their own set up and I was 

working in some of the sheep 

stations in the high country, 

Flockhill in particular and Mt 

White. In the Craigieburn Valley, 

they asked if I could show 

them how I get through that 

valley. I was a director for the Mt 

Hutt ski field for about 12 years 

and involved in the development 

right from the beginning. 

I was very lucky to get a trip to 

the Himalayas with Ed Hillary 

in 1954 with the New Zealand 

Alpine Club. 

That’s incredible, how did you 

manage to do that? 

They were calling for applications 

and I put my name forward 

and got on the team. 

What was that experience 

like? 

It was a very big challenge. 

We were in the Barun Valley 

mapping our climb and having a 

look at Makalu, the fifth highest 

mountain in the world. We got 

pretty high up that and then Ed 

Hillary collapsed, he was very 

sick and also had broken ribs 

SO CLOSE: A view of Mt Makalu, which is located in the Mahalangur Himalayas, 19 km 

south-east of Mt Everest. Geoff Harrow nearly conquered the mountain on a climbing 

expedition with Sir Edmund Hillary in 1954. 

because he helped one of our 

team out of a crevasse. He collapsed 

at about 22,000ft (6705m) 

and we had to stop and get him 

off the mountain. So that was 

the end of climbing Makalu. But 

the highest peak we climbed was 

Baruntse, which is about 23,000ft 

(7010m). 

Have you ever gone back and 

tried to climb Makalu again? 

I went back with my wife on a 

tramping trip. I didn’t get a second 

chance to climb those, but 

I went down to the Antarctic on 

a biological expedition for four 

months in 1965 or 1966, and we 

were studying penguins and I got 

a trip to the South Pole. There 

were a lot of planes going down 

there and I got asked if I’d like to 

go. I was lucky to get on that trip. 

The planes were C130 Hercules 

and they pulled up just by the 

pole station and the navigator 

that was on the trip said this 

wasn’t quite the South Pole. It 

was about 1km away, so I walked 

to the South Pole alone. 

You must have had quite a 

few ‘pinch yourself moments.’ 

What was it like rediscovering 

hutton’s shearwater birds? 

My wife and I were on holiday 

up in Kaikoura staying with Ivan 

Hislop. He found out that we 

were interested in seeing all the 

water birds and suggested some 

things that we could do. I asked 

if there were any mutton birds or 

hutton’s shearwater colonies on 

the Kaikoura coast and he said 

not on the coast but up in the 

mountains there were. I was astonished, 

there was little known 

about hutton’s shearwaters so I 

went and had a look. That was 

about 50 years ago and I have 

been working with them ever 

since. 

You’ve mentioned your wife a 

bit, how did you meet? 

We met at Craigieburn Valley 

Ski Club. I told her I was one of 

the founders of the club and she 

came up and we met and we’re 

still together almost 60 years 

later. We both still ski, we skied 

last winter at Mt Hutt and Coronet 

Peak. She’s joined me and 

encouraged me with the work 

and things I’ve done. 

Do you have children that are 

interested in the outdoors too? 

My son Paul does a lot of skiing 

and a lot of hunting. But he 

came with me on one trip and 

just as we were going over a very 

steep waterfall, a huge rockfall 

came through – several hundred 

tonne – rocks as big as pianos 

came smashing through us. 

There were five in our party, including 

two 12-year-olds, one of 

them being Paul. Not one of us 

got a mark on us. I was terrified 

and wanted to turn round. My 

brother-in-law was with us and 

he was a pretty cool customer. 

He said ‘look Geoff, it’s all over 

and you’ve got some pretty important 

work to do while you’re 

here.’ It was a near miss but we 

did carry on.

Long wait 

looms for 

speed zones 

•From page 1 

Based on the city council being 

able to install about four 

zones per year, Haeata and 

Marshland would be done this 

year, Queenspark in 2020, and 

Mairehau’s speed zone would be 

extended onto Mahars Rd in 2022. 

City council manager operations 

transport Steffan Thomas 

said schools were prioritised based 

on a number of factors relating to 

the road environment outside a 

school. 

“The list is reviewed regularly 

and the ranking of an individual 

school can change due to the 

school, and the surrounding environment, 

changing,” he said. 

Currently Haeata Community 

Campus, Marshland School, 

Somerfield School, Yaldhurst 

Model School and Ouruhia School 

are all earmarked to have school 

zones installed this year. 

Road policing manager Inspector 

Al Stewart said school zones 

are a great way to remind motorists 

they are around other vulnerable 

road users, mainly children.

Weather hampers beachgoers 


THE BUSIEST days of the 

lifesaving season are yet to 

come. 

A mixture of cooler 

temperatures and getting the 

right messages to the public has 

seen a safe summer so far, clubs 

say. 

Normally the busiest part of a 

beach lifeguard’s season is over 

Christmas and New Year’s – 

but not this year due to cooler 

temperatures over the festive 

period. 

New Brighton Surf Lifesaving 

Club lifeguard manager Scotty 

Roberts said the traditional 

busy period on the beaches has 

passed, but it was quieter than 

normal because the weather 

“hasn’t been that fantastic” so 

far. 

“I’m hoping that kind of 

weather is still to come, I really 

want to see more sun come 

through and with that then 

comes the increase in numbers 

on the beach,” he said. 

Waimairi president Mike 

Litten said the club has seen 

“slightly” fewer people on the 

beach compared to the last 

couple of years. 

“On our beach it’s very family-oriented, 

further down in 

IMPORTANT LESSONS: Linwood North School pupils were one of many schools that 

attended beach safety courses last year. 

[New] Brighton it’s more adults, 

but on ours we tend to see families 

and young people. Due to 

that there’s probably been fewer 

saves than at this time last year I 

think,” he said. 

Waimairi, South Brighton and 

New Brighton clubs host beach 

education programmes for primary 

school-aged children. 

South Brighton president 

Rohan McNaughton said the 

school programmes have been 

running for at least 20 years 

now, and the messages are starting 

to sink in. 

Mr Roberts and Mr Litten 

also agreed that the programmes 

had seen the number 

of saves drop each season. 

“Our club is used a lot for 

those programmes. They’re 

PEGASUS POST 

called Beach-Ed and they’re 

focused on primary schools. 

It’s all sun-safe stuff, going 

down onto the beach, doing 

some boogie boarding and at 

the end of the day they go 

home and say ‘mum and dad 

when we go to the beach we 

should swim between the flags’ 

which is fantastic,” Mr Litten 

said.

PEGASUS POST 

Children in Linwood have been keeping entertained over 

the school holidays thanks to Youthtown. The not-for-profit 

organisation runs a holiday programme at Linwood Avenue 

School. Last week the children played games, took a day trip 

out to Lake Daniells in Maruia and had a dip in the cool water 

at the school pool. 

DAY TRIP: As part of the Youthtown programme, 

children were taken to Lake Daniells. Macpac 

Outdoors lent them the outdoor equipment they 

needed. 

LAKE SIDE: The children enjoyed playing by 

the lake. 

BAKING: The group had a go at making homemade biscuits. 

Parenting help group to launch Linwood chapter 

A NEW programme to help first 

time mums and dads navigate 

the parenting maze will start up 

in Linwood. 

The programme, co-ordinated 

by the Linwood Resource Centre, 

Anglican Care Community 

Development and Christchurch 

Methodist Mission, will give 

first-time parents an opportunity 

to build connections and access 

parenting information. 

It will begin at the Linwood 

Resource Centre, 332 Linwood 

Ave, on February 13. 

The ‘Space for you and 

your baby’ programme 

encourages parents to explore 

different perspectives on child 

development and parenting so 

they can choose what works best 

for them, their baby and their 

family. 

It will be aimed at first-time 

parents with newborn babies. The 

sessions will run weekly. 

The sessions will cover 

parenting topics and incorporate 

play sessions with equipment that 

supports babies’ learning and 

development. 

Qualified facilitators, along 

with other professionals, will 

share their collective knowledge 

and experience with the group 

each week. 

Topics to be covered will 

include sleeping, becoming

attachment. 

The programme was started 

in Addington and Sydenham 

last year. One mother who 

attended the Addington branch 

said it had helped her connect 

with other mothers in similar 

situations. 

“I love knowing that they 

will also discuss certain key 

topics regarding parenthood 

and the joys and difficulties 

associated with being a parent,” 

she said.

Back to school blues 

Christchurch 

Methodist 

Mission 

executive 

director Jill 

Hawkey writes 

about the 

challenging time families 

face as the start of the 

school year looms 

Going back to school is a 

stressful time for some families. 

Just before the Christmas and 

New Year break, the Christchurch 

Methodist Mission ran 

its annual Support a Family 

initiative. 

Support a Family meant that 

150 families and 30 older people 

enjoyed Christmas without 

worrying about what they could 

afford. 

It was incredible to see both 

the generosity of individuals, 

families, businesses and 

churches who provided the 

hampers and the overwhelming 

joy of the families and older 

people who received them. 

For families in our community 

who have just managed to 

get through Christmas, the start 

of the school year represents a 

very challenging time. 

Sending a child to a state 

school is not cheap. Stationery, 

RED CROSS 

Ensuring a safe work place 

Learning first aid is not only a part of ensuring a safe 

work place, but also an integral part of our engagement with the 

wider community. We all learn the necessary skills to ensure that 

in times of emergency we are able to assist our work colleagues, 

but are we able to take these skills home, into the community or 

on to the sports field? 

not all work places are the same and the injury risk for each place 

can be wide and variable. The office attended by administrators 

does not carry the same risk as those people working with heavy 

machinery, or perhaps at some distance from a regular ambulance 

service. it is therefore essential that you pick the right first aid 

course to suit all of your activities – both professional and social. 

take, for example, an office worker who does not have a high 

risk work environment and whose concern might be to ensure that 

they can deal with minor cuts and superficial injuries, or the ability 

to perform effective CPr. These skills can be achieved on a course 

of eight hours duration and would generally fit into low to medium 

risk area. But take this same person on to a sports field either as a 

spectator or player when a higher level injury occurs. The eight 

hour course covering unit standards 6402 and 6401 (or 26551 and 

26552) does not cover head neck and spinal injuries, eye injuries, 

school fees, camps, sports fees 

and travel all add up. With 

technology being such an integral 

part of a child’s education, 

a tablet or laptop is also required 

by many schools. These 

costs are significant. For families 

who are struggling with 

unemployment, redundancy, 

income insufficiency or illness, 

they can be insurmountable. 

CMM is working with many 

families that will struggle to 

meet these costs and will need 

our assistance. 

Looking at the year ahead, 

housing and anxiety are set 

to continue to affect our most 

vulnerable. CMM is ready to 

respond to these critical issues. 

We provide warm, affordable 

and secure housing and ongoing 

social support to a number 

of families and older people. 

This year we are opening an 

emergency house and expanding 

our existing community 

housing stock. 

Anxiety continues to have a 

huge impact in our community. 

CMM’s Flourish initiative, 

funded by the Tindall Foundation, 

responds to the needs 

of children and their parents 

who are struggling with low to 

moderate anxiety. It provides 

individual support for children 

and their families, group

hypothermia and poisonings. 

The majority of injuries occur outside of the work place, in 

fact one in three injuries occurs in the home, making it the most 

common place for injuries to happen. new Zealand children 

are twice as likely to die through injury as children who live in 

australia. They mostly die as a result of motor vehicles accidents 

or falls in the home. fatalities from leisure and sport are not far 

behind those in the workplace. 

The wider 12 hour course teaches the additional unit standard 

6400 and provides a wide knowledge base for medium to high risk 

environments. This course covers many of the skills required to 

deal with the most common injuries, such as falls (which can result 

in head, neck and spinal injuries) and dealing with complex scenes 

such as motor vehicle accidents. 

if you are not sure on the course best suited to your needs, ask 

your accredited first aid training provider. They can explain the 

course content and give you options that will best suit your needs. 

Look beyond the workplace and consider your family and your 

location. Check that you have a good quality first aid kit that is 

up-to-date with replenished items, and that everyone knows where 

it is located.

Four schools closed 

for good last month have 

already been vandalised. 

The Fire Service and 

Ministry of Education now 

fear that Aranui High and 

Aranui, Avondale and 

Wainoni (pictured) primary 

schools will now be the 

target of arson. 

You said: 

Jill Reesby – Note for those 

who won’t read the full article, 

St James School will be using the 

Aranui Primary buildings as their 

school is rebuilt. As is a pre-school 

and the learning support services 

for all local schools. So security is 

always present. 

Heidi Meinzer – When 

my old primary school closed 

we saw ratbags throwing rocks 

at the school windows and we 

made them leave. But after we 

left, they would have come back. 

Our school was demolished then 

rebuilt, it’s now Rawhiti School. 

Even though people say it’s just a 

building, it’s not just a building. 

When you spend a lot of time at 

the school, it’s like a second home. 

It’s part of you, especially if you 

have had a child go to the school. 

Brendan Sky Walker – If 

they are just going to demolish 

them, why doesn’t the Fire Service 

use them for practice exercises? 

Jan Johnson – Turn them 

into accommodation . . . open 

living like they did in the 1980s. 

Rosalie Fuller – Luka was 

around there last week and 

said there was a man repairing 

windows so it’s started there.

Falck dominant in under-14 champs 

• By Gordon Findlater 

BURWOOD PARK’S Reece 

Falck has returned home from 

Auckland as the country’s top 

tennis player in his age group. 

He only dropped one set on 

his way to winning the under-14 

New Zealand Junior Championships 

at the Scarbro Tennis 

Centre last week. 

Edgeware’s Liam Adams also 

grabbed victory at the competition, 

winning the doubles title 

with Queenstown’s Thomas 

Hartono. The South Island pairing 

defeated Jayden Harrison 

and Anton Shepp 6-3, 6-1 in the 

tournament final. 

Both Adams and Falck also 

tasted success playing for Canterbury 

in the national under-14 

teams event which finished in 

Auckland on Sunday. A strong 

four days for Canterbury concluded 

with a tight 5-4 win over 

Auckland in the final. 

Falck, 14, moved to Christchurch 

with his parents from 

Johannesburg, South Africa, as a 

five-year-old. His father, Andrew, 

took up the junior coaching role 

at Burwood upon their arrival 

and has worked directly with his 

son since. 

“He’s always had the drive,” 

said Andrew. 

“When we first arrived here, he 

used to have a little foam ball he 

would go outside and hit against 

the garage door. When we were 

back in South Africa, we had an 

outside wall and he would go 

and do the same thing from a 

young age.” 

He’s come a long way since 

then. Falck has been playing for 

Burwood in the Christchurch 

premier men’s interclub competition 

and has represented New 

Zealand at age group level. 

The Shirley Boys’ High School 

student got through his first and 

second round matches at the 

junior championships with relative 

ease winning 6-0, 6-0 and 

6-3, 6-3. 

In the third round, Falck came 

up against sixth seed Michael 

Gealogo, of Wanaka. After 

winning the first set 6-2, Falck 

dropped the second 4-6. However, 

he dominated in the decider 

to win 6-1. 

He then faced his tournament 

doubles partner, Matthew 

Shearer, of Auckland, in the 

semi-final. The pair had crashed 

out of the doubles earlier in the 

competition at the quarter-final 

stage. Falck sent Shearer packing 

in the singles 6-1, 6-4. 

On Wednesday, Falck went 

up against No 1 seed and New 

Zealand junior representative 

Nick Beamish in the final. What 

was billed as a gruelling match 

turned out to be anything but as 

Falck dispatched the tournament 

favourite 6-0, 6-2. 

“I was expecting a really tough 

match so I was kind of surprised 

SPORTS 

with the outcome, but I knew if 

I could play well then the score 

could be like that,” said Falck. 

Earlier this month, he competed 

in the under-16 New 

Zealand Junior Championships 

at Wilding Park. 

After progressing past the 

first round, he ran into third 

seed and eventual runner-up 

George Stoupe, of Hutt Valley. 

He pushed his older opponent to 

a third set before going down 5-7, 

6-4, 1-6. 

“That gave me a lot of confidence 

coming into this tournament,” 

said Falck. 

He has now turned his attention 

to the Canterbury ITF tournament, 

which begun yesterday 

at Wilding Park. Falck will be 

looking to earn points and improve 

his junior world ranking. 

The teenager said he was also 

hopeful of earning a spot in the 

New Zealand Junior Davis Cup 

team within the next two years. 

CHAMPION: Reece Falck 

took out the under-14 national 

tennis title in Auckland 

last week. He then helped 

Canterbury to victory in the 

national teams event.

KIDSTUFF 

Celebrating 45 years 

of Childcare that Cherishes Children 

In 1972, when Glennie Oborn opened 

her first centre, her commitment to 

parents was to keep each child Safe, Loved 

and Learning. And after 45 years, every 

Kindercare centre is still family owned, 

guided by the same family values, and still 

providing fun-filled care, that nurtures 

children through kindness. 

Knowing your child is Safe matters to 

parents, and to Kindercare. That’s why 

access to our centres is by keypad only, to 

control entry and exit. Protecting children 

in a secure environment is our priority. 

Love is at the heart of our centres because 

relationships matter. Our qualified, 

experienced team ensure your child will 

receive lots of cuddles and affection, which 

helps them settle, because they feel loved. 

Getting to know your child is a priority so 

we can respond to them quickly. 

Learning happens naturally, through 

play, once your baby, toddler or preschooler 

feels safe and loved. When they’re relaxed, 

they can have fun, and enjoy discovering 

their world. Your child will benefit from 

freedom to move in open spaces, exploring 

tactile environments for sensory learning, 

and challenging themselves at each 

developmental stage. 

Home-made midday 

meals, and morning and 

afternoon snacks, ensure 

busy parents don’t have to 

worry about their child’s 

nutritional needs. With lots 

of fresh fruit and loads of 

vegges for lunch, your child 

will enjoy healthy variety 

that’s good for them too! 

Parents appreciate the 

value in preparing their child 

for school. At Kindercare, 

we know the difference a 

smooth transition makes 

for your preschooler. 

Our dynamic curriculum 

includes social/emotional 

development programs, 

Letterland (introducing the 

alphabet) and Cherry.bytes 

(a safe and fun introduction 

to technology as a learning 

tool). 

We’re privileged to be 

entrusted with your child’s 

care, and we’re here to work 

alongside your family. Pop 

in for a visit…we’re waiting 

to meet you and your child. 

Entrust your 

child to the safe, 

lov ng care of our 

family-owned 

childcare centres 

Since 1972, we’ve provided more than full and part time 

care and education for babies, toddlers and preschoolers - 

we’ve provided a Kindercare family. And we’re here 

for you, to keep your child safe, share their 

discoveries, guide their enquiry, ensure 

they’re ready for school and most of all, fill 

your child’s days with love and fun. 

Our Kindercare team have a 

warm welcome waiting at a 

centre near you…

Own Device) scheme is being increased 

to include all of the Year 9 cohort, a new 

uniform is in the pipeline and the school 

is adopting a new style of form class to 

lend greater support to students. 

Principal Sue Hume says the new system 

will see each girl with the same whanau 

group teacher for her five years at school. 

“This model gives students the 

opportunity to bond with one teacher 

and have her own family within the 

Avonside community. The classes will 

have an hour each week together – that 

will be an important time to ensure that 

each student is happy and progressing 

within our school environment.” 

Principal Sue Hume. 

Sue Hume says this is part of Avonside’s 

drive to increase student wellbeing and 

support. 

“Avonside’s core focus is not just on 

educating but empowering girls to 

be the best they can be. You can’t 

lift students to their highest levels 

of achievement unless you have a 

supportive atmosphere.” 

Students are also looking forward to 

increased access to digital technology 

with the BYOD scheme rolling out across 

the Year 9 cohort, with the view to having 

full BYOD across the school by 2019. 

“Technological devices are just a tool 

for learning but they do unlock a whole 

new way of engaging students with 

their learning. It is also important our 

girls have the very best IT skills for 

further study and future employment 

opportunities.” 


A fresh look for 

Shirley Boys’ High School 

You won’t have to look hard to see one 

of the new developments at Shirley Boys’ 

High School in 2017 – it will be on almost 

every student you see. 

A new uniform is being rolled out… so it’s 

out with the grey shorts and walk socks 

and in with a sleek new navy and light 

blue kit. Along with the new look, Shirley 

Boys’ is continuing to show it’s at the 

forefront of education with several new 

initiatives, including a unique new form 

class, the roll out of a BYOD (Bring Your 

Own Device) system across the whole 

school and the introduction of a new 

teaching model. 

“All of our teachers will be given the 

chance to co-teach in 2017 and 2018. 

That will see two teachers working with 

two classes of students at the same 

time” says Headmaster John Laurenson. 

“It’s a collaborative approach that we 

trialed in 2016. The feedback was very 

positive – teachers inspired each other 

and the students liked being able to 

experience a range of teaching styles.” 

The new form class will have a strong 

emphasis on tikanga and te reo 

Māori, embracing Maori principles 

such as manaakitanga (exercising 

compassion and empathy), thus 

providing a respectful environment 

for focused mentoring and raising 

student achievement. Priority for the 

new class will be given to students who 

are engaged in Māori cultural pursuits, 

studying te reo or who have come 

bilingual or immersion units.

Casebrook - ʻA School 

of opportunity that will 

engage and challenge 

Casebrook Intermediate students will 

tell you they love their school and the 

learning. 

Happy students are engaged students. 

Engaged students succeed. At 

Casebrook, we constantly review our 

programmes to find the best possible 

way to excite and challenge. We provide 

a flexible programme that moves with 

the needs of the students and the 

learning that excites them. 

Our classrooms promote innovative 

ways of learning, with all students having 

access to modern digital technology, and 

learning through researching, thinking 

and acting on new understanding. All 

our students are catered for by adapting 

our programmes to find the best ways 

to teach our students and providing 

learning support and extension where 

needed. 

Casebrook’s school culture is driven 

by our REP programme. We expect 

our Casebrook REPs to demonstrate 

Respect, Excellence and Perseverance 

to provide a positive environment where 

student wellbeing is central to our school 

and community. We celebrate their 

success as Casebrook REPs through 

our school houses and REP badges. Our 

students tell us they love being part of 

the Casebrook REP community and are 

proud to display their achievements. 

Beyond the classroom we look for 

opportunities to engage our students 

in cultural, artistic, musical, technical, 

sporting and community programmes. 

We have expert teachers who strive to 

involve as many students as possible in 

our groups. It is our aim to find the right 

extra-curricular programme for every 

one of our students. 

Our students leave Casebrook filled with 

new experiences, great friendships and 

most importantly a newfound confidence 

that can be found in a supportive, 

learning-rich environment like ours.

Welcome to Christchurch 

Boys’ High School 

Altiora Peto – I Seek Higher Things 

Welcome to Christchurch Boys’ High 

School. This is a great place to learn and 

we have a history of over 130 years of 

educating boys to be fine young men. 

We have high expectations of our boys 

and strong relationships with them. 

Academic success and moral strength 

are considered paramount, and our 

boys excel across academic, cultural 

and sporting fields. We value tradition, 

we honour excellence, we teach values 

and we celebrate success in a school 

environment that cares for student 

welfare, recognises cultural diversity 

and meets the learning needs of a wide 

range of students. 

Our rich history includes Old Boys, who 

have made their mark in the worlds 

of the military, the arts and culture, 

commerce, law, community service 

and sport. We have close ties with our 

very supportive and active community, 

and we are proud of our place in New 

Zealand education. 

Our success in academic, sporting and 

cultural fields is due to a desire to make 

a difference to all of our young men’s 

achievement. The staff of Christchurch

Hornby High School 

We will start 2017 with a bang, quite 

literally, as we get set for the first 

demolitions that precede our rebuild. 

First to go are the administration block, 

and the library building, due to come 

down in March. Contractors then 

begin the build for the first part of the 

brand new Hornby High School with 

our Hauora, administration, learning 

commons and specialist learning spaces 

that cover sciences, creative arts, and 

technologies. 

The work that goes on inside our 

buildings is also changing with two 

ongoing developments. 

We are asking all students to have 

Chromebooks available during their 

school day. The evidence for their 

significant impact on learning is growing, 

all of this work underpinned with our 

learning methodology of ‘Learn Create 

Share’ (supported by the Manaiakalani 

Outreach Programme) which we share 

with our partnership schools in our Uru 

Manuka cluster. This pedagogy develops 

deeper learning and digital fluency, both 

essential in our modern era. 

We are also developing student and 

staff abilities to cause learning using 

project based learning. PBL is well 

known to improve student engagement 

and deeper learning, and following 

successful trials in 2016 is set to grow in 

use this year. 

This all forms a part of the backdrop to 

our journey towards the school’s exciting 

vision ‘A centre of creative excellence’. 

Make sure that you are a part of this 

exciting future focussed journey. 

Robin Sutton, Principal 

Riccarton’s Kokiri Lodge 

Experience 

Outdoor education is an integral and 

compulsory part of the Riccarton High 

School junior programme. We own our 

outdoor education centre, Kokiri Lodge, 

situated in Westland, near Lake Brunner. 

The Board of Governors bought the old 

Kokiri school building and some 5 acres 

of land in August 1973. Soon after the 

purchase a bunkroom was built and a 

dedicated education programme was 

developed with the emphasis on inter 

personal skills. The first class groups 

visited Kokiri in November 1974, 40 years 

ago. 

The Kokiri Experience fits in well with The 

Riccarton Way. Students get involved, 

work hard at the challenging tasks, show 

care for others, are tolerant, and always 

have to be part of team. A key factor in 

facing the difficulties of Kokiri is giving it 

their best shot. 

Each year all Year 9 and Year 10 students 

travel by train to the lodge with a 

teacher accompanying them on the 

train. A specialist Kokiri teacher and 

three instructors lead the specialist four 

day programme. The four instructors 

live at the Lodge for the camps. Senior 

students from Year 12 and Year 13 are 

involved in the programme as group 

leaders – four per camp. 

The Year 9 and 10 programmes are 

different, and complement each other 

in developing self-confidence, team 

work and leadership skills in an outdoor 

education context facilitated by the 

experienced instructors. 

Students enjoy the abseiling, 

orienteering, confidence and ropes 

courses. Year 10 students also 

experience an exciting overnight campout 

in tents in the bush. 

This two year programme, unique to 

Riccarton, is designed to provide a 

positive introduction to the outdoors 

and to develop links in the class and 

confidence in the students when 

they return to Christchurch. Students 

often refer to their time at Kokiri as a 

highlight of their school time and a truly 

memorable experience.

South New Brighton 

School’s Got Talent 

Villa Maria College 


Dance Crew, from left to right: Morgan Bailey, Ella Timbrell, Molly Chalmers and Chloe Timbrell. 

One of the great things about our school 

is that it is a full primary (Year 1-8). This 

means that our students can stay with the 

same group of friends and teachers until 

high school and get to take on a lot of 

areas of responsibility around the school. 

This year we had a large group of Year 8 

Prefects who have buddied up with new 

entrants, visited our local kindergarten, 

led assemblies, arranged a staff vs. Year 

8’s basketball tournament and worked in 

the office at lunchtimes to give our hardworking 

office staff a break. 

We also have so many talented students 

at SNBS! For the second year in a row, 

our school has held an SNBS’s Got Talent 

Show to showcase this talent. This is 

another one of the things that our Prefect 

group has helped to organise. 

69 of our Year 5-8 students gave up 

their morning teas and lunchtimes to 

audition for their place in the Semi Finals. 

There were Solo and Group categories 

of Singing, Dance, Entertainment and 

Instrumental. All of this could not have 

happened without our dedicated 

teachers, who gave up their valuable time 

to judge and decide who would make 

it through to the finals. Leading into the 

final, the competition was fierce. The 8 

finalists performed stunningly in front 

of the whole school at our Whanau Hui. 

It was an intensely difficult decision for 

our judges, Tom and Holly from Original 

Scripts Theatre School. They decided 

that the overall winner was ‘Dance Crew’, 

dancing to “It’s the Hard Knock Life” from 

the musical Annie, and they won a $10 

subway voucher (a special thanks to 

Subway Ferrymead for donating these) 

and Miss Gill, our Deputy Principal and 

organiser of SNBS’s Got Talent, took 

them out for lunch. Every participant 

was awarded a certificate at our school 

Whanau Hui.

Make wise 

choices for 

holiday fun 

Don’t spend your holiday 

recuperating from a preventable 

accident. The double whammy of 

the holiday and summer seasons 

are in full swing. Accidents lead 

the way for ambulance rides and 

healing time. An accident is just 

that. An event that happens from 

a series of events, causing bodily 

harm. In most cases those events 

could have been prevented with 

a little more thought behind the 

decision. 

At Physiotherapy Associates, 

located at 86 Wainoni Rd, 

Wainoni, they pride themselves 

in assisting the healing process 

and they are strong advocates in 

that awareness and assessment 

are the key to prevention. 

“We stress to our clients, the 

following; always have a first aid 

kit in the car, on the boat, or at 

your location and do a first aid 

course. Muscle and ligament 

strains and sprains are some 

of the most common accident 

results.” Says head physiotherapist 

Richard.

Alcohol consumption is one 

of the biggest contributors to 

any accident. As people mature 

in many cases they acquire that, 

“invisible, superhero syndrome” 

where they feel they can do 

actions with the same buoyancy as 

when they were younger. In many 

instances this leads to the result 

of a fall, tweak or miscalculate in 

the action and an injury incurs.” 

Richard advises, “If there is 

severe pain, deformity or inability 

to bear weight seek medical help 

or call 111 immediately. If soft 

tissue pain does not improve by 

the order of about 50% within 48 

hours, visit your GP, afterhours or 

your local physiotherapist.” 

Fun is what life is all about. 

Creating memories and enjoying 

yourself. Just remember when 

water-skiing, swimming, 

playing cricket, touch, tramping, 

skateboarding, running, biking, 

walking, or any physical activity 

to assess the situation, look at the 

potential outcome and make that 

choice to protect yourself and

Anthony’s back 

with a new 

show! 

LOCAL performer, Anthony Easterbrook-Carter returns 

to the Hornby Working Men’s Club on Saturday 18th 

February with his latest show... Retro Rockin’ 

“If you love dancing and singing along to the great 

Rock & Rock 'n' Roll Hits of the 50's, 60's & 70's then 

this is for you,” said Anthony. “All the songs are hits 

you will know and want to dance along to. Songs from 

Beatles, The Beach Boys, Cliff Richard, Shadows, Elvis, 

Roy Orbison, The Shirelles, Gerry & Pacemakers, CCR, 

Doobie Brothers and many more.” 

Anthony, who has been singing professionally for 

over 25 years, has shared the stage with many 

esteemed artists including Frankie Stevens, Suzanne 

Prentice, Toni Williams, George McArdle (Little River 

Band bass player). 

A stellar lineup of top musos form his backing band, 

‘Backpack’. 

On guitar and vocals: John Campbell was founder 

and frontman of popular 60's group, ‘Johnny & the 

Detours’. As well as performing regularly at the iconic 

Laredo Nitespot. They opened for The Rolling Stones 

Christchurch show in 1965 and had many recordings 

including hit single ‘My Girl’. 

On bass and vocals: Trevor Wright was also a 

member of ‘Johnny & the Detours’, as well as more 

recent bands ‘Remedy’, ‘Page One’, and ‘About Time’. He 

has also shared the stage both here and in Australia 

with many notable artists including Suzanne Prentice, 

and Frankie Stevens. 

On lead guitar and vocals: Maurice Sammons, with 

over 50 years experience, has been playing in well 

known local bands ‘Solid Gold’ and ‘Shalow’. In earlier 

years he played in the ‘Shoobedo’ band, and had the 

pleasure of opening for ‘The Shadows’ during their 

Australian tour. 

On drums and vocals: Wayne Allen, during this vast 

career, has been involved in many top bands. From the 

early days with ‘The Dynamics’ and ‘The Secrets’ 

through to current band ‘The Hi Rollers’. 

On keyboard and vocals: Paul Andrew is the 

youngest member of this impressive lineup. He 

currently plays in well known local band ‘The New 

Entrants’ and has played many major events and is a 

highly regarded and accomplished pianist. 

And joining them of vocals, Tracey Crichton.
