GREAT RANGE

• By Caitlin Miles
FOR YEARS pupils at Bromley
School have had to duck and
dive as they crossed a nearby
busy intersection.
But soon they will have a
pedestrian island on Bromley
Rd at the intersection with
Keighleys Rd so the children can
safely get to the middle of the
road before crossing the other
lane.
The Bromley Community
Centre raised the issue with
the former Hagley-Ferrymead
Community Board in 2015,
pushing it for something to be
done.
“So many of our kids cross
there and it’s such a busy road it
can be dangerous.
“They would duck between
stopped cars and trucks because
they didn’t want to wait, now it
will be much safer,” said school
teacher Cathy Baker.
She hopes parents will be
happier to let their children
make their own way to school.
School pupils made a
deputation to the Linwood-
Central-Heathcote Community
Board meeting last week,
asking for safety measures to
be put in place to make it safer
to cross.
The community board
approved the decision to install a
pedestrian island.
Cr Yani Johanson said it was
good news for the school and
community centre.
Ms Baker said it was “exciting”
news after campaigning for
safety measures for so long.
“We spoke to so many
people, went and counted cars
and trucks driving past . . . it’s
ridiculous,” she said.
This comes after schools
around the city started
campaigning for safer roads
outside schools by lowering the
speed limits during school hours
in the morning and afternoon.
Ms Baker said lowering speed
limits is an important issue
for the schools, but said this
was a good step in making the

children safer.
She said the school will hold
road safety lessons with the
pupils to encourage them to
safely use the island to cross the
road.
Work is under way for the
pedestrian island.

News........................................3-7
A NEW era has dawned for
education in the eastern suburbs
with the opening of Haeata
Community Campus (see our
photos on page 4).
The earthquakes brought many
changes to the east side and
schools are one of them.
Time will tell whether Haeata
is a good move, but purely from a
family point of view, I’m guessing
many parents will only be too
happy to have all of their kids
heading to one school.
Older brother looks after
younger brother and all that sort
of thing.
Aranui High was a great school
(I’m an old boy). I can remember
some of the stuff we got up to like
it was yesterday.
The teachers were great (except
for one or two), and I made some
great friends, a number I still see
all these years on.

Yacht club’s $1.17m shed
• By Tom Doudney
THE Christchurch Yacht Club
is hoping it will soon get the go
ahead for a new rowing shed to
replace the one demolished after
the June 2011 earthquake.
The Moncks Bay-based club
wants to build a new $1.17 million
shed in a
more seaward
position to allow
room for the
Coastal Pathway
walking and cycle
route between
Trevor Kite
it and the road.
Building the shed
further seaward
means higher costs.
The club already has resource
consent and a building permit
for the new shed. It has also
asked the city council to contribute
$327,595 towards the extra
costs associated with providing
for the Coastal Pathway, along
with an additional $239,713 because
the public will have use of
the shed’s decks and ramps.
The club has raised $607,000
so far, and has carried out soil
testing.
It has met with both the city
council and the Coastal Pathway
group over the last two months
and expects to get a response
from the city council soon.
Once funding has been
secured, work could begin
almost immediately and
would take about 10 months to
complete.
The new shed would be 5.5m
further seaward, enlarging the
space for a public walking and
cycle route between it and the
road from 1m to 4m.
The club’s shed and boardwalk
project convener Trevor Kite
said the proposal was a winwin
scenario for the club and
community.
“Although we have the right
to put the shed back as it was, to
have done so would have denied
the community the chance to
walk past there except for a little
track,”
he said.
“It has been identified as the
major obstacle for completing
the Coastal Pathway between
Ferrymead and Sumner.”
Mr Kite said the club would
function much better when it
could once again provide a shed
for members to store boats in.
This would also help with

traffic and parking in the area,
as members would not have to
bring their boats with them on
trailers.
The shed had already been
damaged in the February 2011
earthquake and was deemed
unsafe following the magnitude
6.3 quake in June that year,
which was centred less than
200m away.
The clubrooms were
also damaged by the 2011
earthquakes, although they are
still able to be used and will be
rebuilt at a later date.

FLOOD PROTECTION
Consultation on landscaping
at Linwood Lower Fields as
part of flood mitigation work
will close next week. The plans
involve turning 2.75ha of
unused land at the Kimihia
Parents’ College into an urban

retention ponds. The city council
wants to use the land as part
of a series of work between
Antigua St in the central city
and Hargood St in Woolston,
designed to improve flood
protection and water quality in
the Bells Creek catchment. The
plans will go to the Linwood-

The Blind Care Company has been
cleaning and repairing the region’s blinds
for over 60 years. Those six decades
have seen changes in both fashion and
technology. Styles have ranged from
festooned fabric swags to straightforward
and still popular holland roller blinds,
from vertical to horizontal slat systems,
and in every colour or pattern popular
since the 1960s.
Whatever your style, the Blind Care
Company has the expertise to keep your
window treatments looking fresh and
working efficiently. Using only ecofriendly
chemicals, the build-up of dirt,
dust, grease, nicotine and smoke residue
can be removed so that your blinds
smell fresh and are restored to their
original glory. The company can repair
blinds also, having a huge range of parts
in stock. And if you want something
completely new, a great range of blinds is
available for purchase.

Concerts, events could
be held in red zone
gotoring
CONCERTS AND other events
could be held in the residential
red zone to take pressure off
Hagley Park.
Mayor Lianne Dalziel
floated the idea at a city
council meeting on
Thursday that holding
“concerts and various
other events” would be a
good transitional use of
ites asty Bites
the land.
It is not the first time the red
zone has been suggested as a
location for concerts and other
big events.
Hands off Hagley, the park’s
watch dog group, suggested last
year popular noisy events
should be hosted in the
residential red zone to
stop damage to the park.
Ms Dalziel said holding
events in the red zone
would “re-engage the
community in the area”.
The residential red zone is
430ha of land, an area two and a
half times the size of Hagley Park.
Her comments came after city
councillor Aaron Keown said
that he had received a number
of complaints regarding the lack
of available parking at Hagley
Park for events.
In November the city council
banned parking on the grassed
areas in Hagley Park.
Previously vehicles could be
parked on the fields for major
events, but the practice was
damaging the land.
Ms Dalziel said the city
councillors needed an update on
the parking situation.
Making bus rides
more enjoyable
• Ashleigh Monk
MAGDA Lorenzo has spent the
last two months delivering books
to bus stops for commuters to
enjoy.
Ms Lorenzo started the
initiative ‘The Commuting Book’
to encourage reading and the use
of public transport.
The idea is for people to pick
up a book at their bus stop, read
it while they ride the bus, then
drop it off when they get to their
stop.
“The idea behind The
Commuting Books is to create
opportunities for people to
engage in reading by bringing
them (books) into public spaces,”
she said.
“I see bus stops a social hub
and it’s very interesting the way
you can engage in conversation
with people waiting for the bus
with you and sometimes the
books are an excuse to do
that.”
Ms Lorenzo delivered the
books herself on her bicycle she
had named ‘Mantis’.
“It depends on the weather
that day; I can ride for several
hours around the city. Normally
I choose one of the bus routes
and leave the books at the stops
on that route.”
Each book had a ‘Commuting
Book’ sticker with informations
and instructions on the project.
Although Ms Lorenzo has not
had much feedback she said the
travelling of books was a good
sign.
“Some of them are responding
through Facebook. They are
being very generous with their
comments and their feedback.
It’s very encouraging.”
Ms Lorenzo estimated she
had distributed about 230
books so far, and hoped that
number would rise as the project
developed.
“We hope to be implementing
a few different aspects to the
project in the next couple of
months.”

Southshore triathlete
dominating junior series
ARI GRAHAM has continued
to dominate the junior triathlon
circuit with her third win of
the national series at Takapuna
Beach, Auckland.
The Southshore triathlete was
also crowned winner at both the
House of Travel (Christchurch)
and Future ChampioNZ festivals
(Taupo) in December.
Graham, 17, has recently
started to focus on triathlon with
most of her training previously
targeting athletics. She was
introduced to the sport while
she was at school and enjoys the
combination of swimming and
running.
“Over the next six to 12
months, I’m looking to improve
my cycling as it’s my weakest
discipline. I also want to
increase my knowledge and
understanding of triathlon as the
training is a lot different
to athletics training,” said
Graham.
The background in athletics
has given Graham a strong
advantage on the run leg of the
sport. She steamed off ahead
of her competition completing
the run almost 1min ahead of
Hamilton’s Hannah Knighton
who finished second.
“I used to be a 1500m runner
so having that experience has
allowed me to understand

running tactics more,” said
Graham.
The National Junior Series
is intended to promote
strength and depth of domestic
competition for aspiring young
triathletes in New Zealand.
There are a diverse mix of
races that athletes will encounter
throughout the series to promote
skill and speed.
The final two races of the series
will take place in Wanaka this
month and Wellington in March.
Graham has her eyes set on the
remainder of the series and, with
a gap year ahead of her to work
part-time and focus on training,
the youngster will be one to
watch out for this year.

AT THIS time of the year former
Super Rugby player Ged Robinson
is normally getting towards peak
fitness ahead of a busy season.
This year he’s all about keeping
Christchurch well fed with what
he calls a Kiwi take on Italian style
pizza.
Fed by Ged will be one of many
tasty and nutritious options

Robinson
has always had a love for food. After
recently hanging up the boots he’s
now had more time to concentrate
on that love.
“I’m a front rower so I love food.
I moved to Melbourne and played
over there for three years. My wife
and I spent a lot of time checking out
the city and enjoying the food, that
probably fired up the taste buds even
more,” said Robinson.
His first experiments with pizza
came during his time while playing
for the Melbourne Rebels, regularly
feeding teammates on his own
creations. His passion for fuelling a
squad has grown ever since.
After spending a decade as a
professional rugby player Robinson
knows all about nutrition, something
he’s taken to the oven.
“Italian style pizza has really high
quality meat and really low in sugar
and salt. I do make brown flour
pizza dough as well as the traditional
white. It’s all really good quality,
non-processed food,” said Robinson.
Robinson is continually working
on new creations and by the time
March 19 rolls around he may just
have a new recipe to unveil.

Be part of the Christchurch
United dream
Christchurch United FC is the most
successful football club in Canterbury
and is making great strides to once again
become the most famous football brand in
the country.
Since its formation in 1970 Christchurch
United captains have lifted six National
League trophies (1973, 1975, 1978, 1987,
1988, 1991) and six Chatham Cups (1972,
1975, 1976, 1989 and 1991).
Christchurch United has recently joined
forces with the acclaimed Christchurch
Football Academy programme and the
merged entity will be mainly based at the
world-class Christchurch Football Centre
on Yaldhurst Road, as well as the historic
home at Spreydon Domain.
The state-of-the art artificial pitches,
top quality natural pitches, fit-for-purpose
floodlights, 500-seat grandstand will soon
be flanked by new offices, changing rooms
and a café that will create the
best football environment
for players, parents and
supporters, all seasons and all
weather, 12 months a year.
Christchurch United FC
is proud to be one of the
few clubs in the country
with three internationallylicenced
elite coaches with
extensive pedigree in youth
development.
They will provide a huge
variety of programmes, from
intensive elite Academy
development, equivalent to the FTC
programme, to community programmes
in Spreydon, from First Kicks to Masters
grades.
Our professional coaches will personally
deliver the curriculum but also run a
coaching education programme to enhance
the skills and qualifications of the club’s
volunteer coaches.
Christchurch United FC has set itself
extremely high standards to deliver a
world-class football experience, both on
and off the pitch, from our elite players,
our toddlers to the grey-haired weekend
warriors battling.

The power of
chlorophyll
Chlorophyll is a truly amazing substance
with powerful health benefits. It is the green
pigment found in plants they use to make
energy through photosynthesis. It is a rich
source of natural minerals, vitamins, amino
acids and antioxidants, which are essential
in balancing and maintaining the alkalinity
of the body. Ideally we want our body to
be slightly alkaline as an acidic body is
prone to unhealthy organisms that can
damage organs, the immune system and
may lead to allergies, asthma, congestion,
fatigue, frequent colds, headaches,
inflammation, joint and muscle pain, skin
problems, ulcers, weight gain and over
the long term arthritis, cancer, diabetes,
fibromyalgia, heart disease, multiple
sclerosis, osteoporosis and stroke. The
biggest contributor to acidity in the body is
our modern diet. Excess acidity is caused
by eating processed foods, too much animal
protein, dairy products and processed
grains such as corn and wheat. Normally
the kidneys maintain our acid/alkaline
balance by adjusting the electrolyte levels
in the body. The electrolytes are calcium,
magnesium, potassium and sodium. The
best source of these electrolytes is raw
fruits and vegetables as cooking depletes
alkalising minerals. Green drinks made
with fresh vegetables or powders are very
alkalising as they contain chlorophyll.
Chlorophyll is structurally similar to our
own blood and alkalises the blood.
Chlorophyll is available in concentrated
liquid form and is an ideal way to help
alkalise and mineralise the body. Generally
5-15ml is taken straight or diluted in
water or juice. Chlorophyll is a powerful
cleansing and detoxifying agent for the
body and blood. It acts as a natural internal
deodoriser, helping with body odour, bad
breath, promoting good digestive function
and supporting overall health and wellbeing.
Chlorophyll supports efficient
oxygen transportation by the blood and as
a result can improve energy and make you
feel more refreshed and invigorated.

Third Aged Tours
Taking people aged over 50 on trips
around New Zealand and the world for
nearly 20 years has earned Third Age Tours
a brag book that Director Brenda Corby-
Yarrall says “businesses would give their
eye teeth for.”
Taking small groups of 10 – 24 people
means I can operate the tour in a relaxed,
companionable manner. We have an
absolute blast when we’re away. It’s all about
having fun.
Most of my trips are run annually
because they’re so popular, but I’m always
adding new destinations - like “Sicily, South
Italy & Vatican” + “Cuba”,
as people ask for them.
Brenda checks out all
accommodation before
booking it, and ensures
the party spends at least a
few nights at each place.
That way you don’t feel
like you’re living out of a
suitcase.
Many clients now have
made over 20 tours with
us, one has completed a
whopping 27 tours.
My clients tell me they
keep coming back because
of the size of the groups and our relaxed
manner. My motto is ‘There are no
strangers, only friends waiting to meet.’
We gather together for breakfast at
8.30am which sets us up for the day and
everybody thinks is a very civilised hour.
I organise incredible trips at incredible
prices. Look around, you can’t find better
for all we include.

Strengthen your spine, avoid
back pain
Whether it’s from gardening, lifting
something heavy, or twisting awkwardly,
most of us will experience low back pain
during our lifetime and it can certainly
slow us down.
An exciting and effective way of
resolving and preventing low back or neck
pain is Dynamic Spines, a programme run
by Muscle People in Christchurch City
and Bishopdale. As physiotherapist and
director of Muscle People, Laurie Moore,
explains: “Spinal strength and stability is
the focus of the programme, concentrating
on the deep core muscles in the trunk.”
The programme is designed to move
you beyond pain to a place where you feel
confident about taking part in dynamic
activities, and significantly reduce
recurrence of back pain, she says.
Led by physiotherapists, the weekly
exercise programme is conducted for
small groups, with core stability and
spinal muscle control being addressed.
Participants experience clear progression
each week, which will cross over to their
everyday life.
“More than 80 per cent of New Zealanders
suffer from a significant episode of low
back pain during their life,” Laurie says.
“Of these, 84 per cent are likely to have
a recurrence of back pain within a year.
Research shows that those that undergo a
specific spinal strengthening programme
are almost three times better off.”
The benefits of completing the Dynamic
Spines programme:
• Stabilise your spine
• Increase your core strength
• Improve your confidence
• Correct causative factors that may
relate to ongoing pain and recurrent
episodes of low back pain
• Specific training for your back
A Muscle People client who has completed
the Dynamic Spines programmes, Julie,
says: “The course has been life-changing.
I suffered from severe neck pain and was
fearful of any movement. This programme
has strengthened up my neck muscles,
making me feel confident and like a new
woman.”
Another participant, Tor, says: After
partaking in the Dynamic Spines group
exercise programme I definitely feel
stronger all over – thigh muscles, arms,
general increased stamina. This has helped
with my gardening work, with less lower
back niggles.”
Before you join the Dynamic Spines
programme, a physiotherapist will assess
your individual needs. The programme is
then split into two levels. Laurie explains:
After
Before
“The first level is all about learning to locate and then strengthen the appropriate muscles.
The physiotherapists will help each person to achieve this based on their individual
diagnosis and ability.
“The second level focuses on turning those learned skills into habitual movements and
improving strength. Home exercises are also an integral part of the programme.
The Dynamic Spines programme is designed for men and women of all ages and fitness
levels, who have back or neck pain, or with core or postural weakness.

Waterfront Gem
28 Esplanade, Sumner
Auction 16th February 2017 (unless sold prior)
4 Bedrooms | 1 Bathroom | 2 Living Rooms | 1 Dining Room | 2 Car Garage | 2 Off Street Carparks - Listing No: FM5064
Properties in this location are tightly held and are
rarely becoming available and it is almost impossible to
find an original character home let alone on Sumner’s
waterfront.
Positioned right opposite Cave Rock, Scarborough
and Sumner Beaches and boasting one of the few
homes on the Esplanade with rear access and views
in both directions. Views encapsulate Scarborough
Heads sweeping over Sumner Beach and right along
the coastline to the Kaikoura Ranges and the Southern
Alps.
Built approximately 100 years ago when
craftsmanship was valued this graceful character home
has great street appeal, good bones and untapped
potential. Clearly cherished and lovingly maintained
with gleaming timber floors throughout and a good old
fashioned ambience.
All the ground floor is dedicated to two generous
sized living rooms, one which is open plan with the
kitchen and has French doors opening on to the rear
garden, the other being the formal dining and living
room area.
Upstairs hosts four bedrooms, two that are large and
two smaller plus a sunroom which is sure to be the best
seat in the house.
The grounds are much larger than first appear with
a well laid out back area for the family to enjoy, rear
access from the ROW (off Burgess St) and off street
parking, garage and a workshop/studio/storage room.
This is an ideal location to raise your family and
offers a beachy laid back lifestyle. Enjoy a surf or swim
after work or a morning stroll along the Esplanade. Life
doesn’t get much better than this.
With a myriad of village shops, cafes and boutiques
within close proximity from your door, you are sure to
enjoy the benefits of such a prime address.
A treasured family home for the past 35 years, it is now
time for our owner to say goodbye. Here’s your chance
to stamp your mark and purchase this special property.

COMPUTING FOR FREE
Free qualification builds digital confidence
The New Zealand Certificate in Computing Level 3
(Intermediate User) has been developed to equip
students with the digital skills expected in today’s
workforce.
Ara Computing for Free Academic Team Leader Des
Hoogervorst says that learning how to use digital
technology and operate online is now a necessity.
“Technology, the workforce and education are
evolving. Through this new programme, we work
with students to build their confidence with
technology step-by-step. Then we show them how
they can use it to discover information and come up
with solutions.”
The certificate introduces students to the types of
tools commonly used in a business environment.
Students can then apply this knowledge to the
specific tools used in their workplace and adapt to
new ones as technology advances.
One of the advantages about studying through
Computing for Free is the community that students
become part of. The Level 3 certificate includes an
online forum where students can share their insights
as they progress through the course.
“This experience will enable students to have
confident conversations in a digital work
environment. By interacting with people from
different industries and backgrounds, students will
also learn more about the digital business world.”
The qualification covers fundamental digital skills,
such as the use of different mobile devices and how
to connect these to WiFi and Bluetooth.
Students will explore the privacy and security
implications of different types of filing systems and
file sharing software, including cloud-based storage.
Experiencing tools such as Microsoft Office, online
presentations, basic HTML editing suites and social
media will give students a wide understanding of
the digital activities carried out in most businesses.
The programme has no fees, is self-paced and
flexible. Students can start at any time of the year
and can choose to study from home or at one of the
Ara Computing for Free locations in Christchurch or
Timaru. Enrolments are open now.
Computing for Free focuses on digital skills
Ara Institute of Canterbury is preparing students
to operate in the digital workplace through
Computing for Free. New qualifications are being
introduced this year, with a focus on digital literacy.
Computing for Free Manager Peter Nock says that
the new qualifications reflect today’s digital business
environment. They are delivered primarily online and
encourage digital collaboration and problem solving.
The New Zealand Certificate in Computing Level 3
(Intermediate User) is open for enrolment now and
equips students with the knowledge to use a broad
range of technology to their advantage.
“Rather than just teaching students to use specific
software well, this qualification encourages them to
become independent thinkers. They will learn to use
technology to problem solve and come up with their
own solutions, instead of relying on a textbook or
their tutor.”
While some familiarity with computing is needed
to get started, beginners can complete some of
Computing for Free’s non-assessed courses as
a stepping-stone to build their basic skills and
confidence first.
“It doesn’t matter what level of knowledge you have,
just come in and talk to us and we can come up with
a pathway to suit you. We’re here to support you to
fill in the gaps.”
With 90% of the course content delivered online,
the Level 3 qualification is highly flexible. Students
can fit study in around their work and family
commitments, and progress at their own pace.
They can choose to study from home, the office,
or at one of our Computing for Free locations in
Christchurch or Timaru.
A Level 4 qualification will also be introduced in
2017 for people who want to further their skills.
The New Zealand Certificate in Computing Level 4
(Advanced User) will give students the expertise
to analyse more complex data and become more
efficient at doing business using technology.
We’re here to help make your enrolment easy. Please call, email or visit our website for more information.

COMPUTING FOR FREE
5 essential skills for the digital workplace
The skill-set for anyone who works in an office environment has changed dramatically in the past 10 years and it continues to
change at a rapid pace. Ara Head of Computing Dr Nathan Rountree identifies the essential skills people need to thrive in the
digital workplace.
ESSENTIAL SKILL #1:
ADAPTABILITY TO A RANGE
OF DIGITAL TOOLS
General digital confidence and competence is now
essential for employment and career progression.
Gone are the days of just training to use select
computer programs, instead people need to be able
to find and use the right digital tools to complete a
variety of tasks.
ESSENTIAL SKILL #2:
IT COMMUNICATION
People need to understand enough about IT to
communicate effectively with IT support in their
organisation, or as part of running their own
small business. An increased knowledge of the IT
environment results in better communication, better
functioning of teams and better business results.
ESSENTIAL SKILL #3:
ELECTRONIC FILING CAPABILITY
It is now an expectation that all staff in an
organisation, from business administrators to
managers, can make decisions about file storage.
Everyone needs to have the ability to organise an
electronic filing system that many other people are
going to use, with differing levels of access.
ESSENTIAL SKILL #4:
UNDERSTANDING TECHNOLOGY
FOR BUSINESS IMPROVEMENT
There are now endless digital tools that can help us do
better, faster and more efficient business. It’s important
that people are aware of how new technologies can be
used to benefit them and their organisation.
ESSENTIAL SKILL #5:
KNOWING HOW TO MAKE SENSE
OF DATA
Today almost all organisations are using data
to make better decisions and there is a strong
expectation that everyone in a business can look at,
process and understand data. The most common
way data is presented is in a spreadsheet and these
have to be read by people who understand both
data and spreadsheets.
Computing For Free can help support you in acquiring these skills so you can be more effective in the workplace.
