dream<br />

New Brighton<br />

on the cards<br />

• By Gordon Findlater<br />

A SUCCESSFUL background in<br />

middle distance running looks to<br />

have set Southshore triathlete Ari<br />

Graham on a path to glory.<br />

Graham, 18, won the recent<br />

Sea2Sky Challenge in Sumner,<br />

the latest of many achievements.<br />

She competed in last year’s national<br />

track and field championships<br />

in Dunedin, winning both<br />

the under-18 800m and 1500m<br />

titles. She is also a champion<br />

cross-country runner and has<br />

previously represented New Zealand<br />

at secondary school level.<br />

After trying her hand at a<br />

couple of school triathlons she<br />

made the bold move to turn her<br />

full attention to triathlon and it’s<br />

now paying dividends.<br />

Graham has taken a gap year<br />

following her final year at St Andrew’s<br />

College and is currently<br />

working part-time and training<br />

full-time with the Canterbury<br />

Triathlon Academy.<br />

Over the summer, she competed<br />

in the National Junior Series,<br />

which is contested between the<br />

top under-19-year-olds in the<br />

RISING STAR: After<br />

making the switch<br />

from middle distance<br />

running, Ari Graham<br />

has dominated in her<br />

first year of triathlon.<br />

country over five events. Graham<br />

not only won the series, she took<br />

out all five events.<br />

“I was really shocked with how<br />

well it went in my first year of<br />

triathlon. Every time I competed<br />

I wasn’t really expecting to win.<br />

I was just excited to compete and<br />

learn from racing,” said Graham.<br />

Graham has always been a<br />

strong swimmer and runner.<br />

She has been hard at work on her<br />

cycling with coach Axel Reiser<br />

to develop her technique and<br />

bunch-riding tactics this year.<br />

A NEW gateway into New<br />

Brighton is on the drawing<br />

board.<br />

Plans for a rebuilt Pages Rd<br />

bridge show Hawke St being<br />

used as the main entrance point<br />

instead of Seaview Rd.<br />

The bridge suffered damage in<br />

the Canterbury earthquakes and<br />

is to be rebuilt in 2021/22 at an<br />

estimated cost of $13 million.<br />

At present, the bridge directs<br />

traffic directly into Seaview Rd<br />

with Hawke St to the left and<br />

Owles Tce to the right.<br />

Burwood Ward city councillor<br />

Glenn Livingstone told the<br />

<strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong> he had seen plans<br />

drawn up by Stronger Christchurch<br />

Infrastructure Rebuild<br />

Team showing the bridge tilting<br />

away from its current position.<br />

Traffic heading towards New<br />

Brighton would be directed into<br />

Hawke St towards the beach,<br />

rather than onto Seaview Rd and<br />

New Brighton Mall.<br />

Mr Livingstone cautioned that<br />

the plans, which are dated February<br />

2014, are likely to change.<br />

“Since that time, Development<br />

Christchurch and Regenerate<br />

Christchurch have come into<br />

being. We don’t know what the<br />

use of red zone land in that area<br />

will be.’’<br />

A NEW entrance into New<br />

Brighton would make sense.<br />

THe devastation caused by<br />

the earthquakes have forced a<br />

rethink of how the suburb fits<br />

within wider Christchurch.<br />

Key projects such as the hot salt<br />

water pools offer the prospect of<br />

an exciting future. Many people<br />

are working positively to try and<br />

expedite the transformation of<br />

Brighton’s dilapidated shopping<br />

area.<br />

THe Pages Rd bridge is an<br />

important gateway into the area<br />

and it is to be hoped that the<br />

public are fully informed and<br />

engaged in decision making on<br />

its future.<br />

Also this week, the recent<br />

Rangatahi Eastside Youth Ball<br />

brought together young people<br />

from across the east of the city to<br />

celebrate and network together.<br />

It’s heartening to see these young<br />

people so engaged in the future of<br />

our city. – Sarla Donovan<br />

$600k bus shelter for Linwood<br />

• By Bridget Rutherford<br />

BUS STOPS next to Eastgate<br />

Shopping Centre will be<br />

upgraded after patrons<br />

complained they were not<br />

getting the same service as other<br />

areas.<br />

The city council is looking at<br />

installing $600,000 weatherproof<br />

bus shelters to replace the<br />

current ones on Buckleys Rd,<br />

along with a $500,000 signalised<br />

pedestrian crossing.<br />

It came after there were complaints<br />

last year that Northlands<br />

and Westfield Riccarton had received<br />

upgrades, while Eastgate<br />

was still waiting.<br />

Property owners also called<br />

for the stop to be moved away<br />

from Buckleys Rd, as they said<br />

patrons were littering, urinating<br />

and defecating on their properties.<br />

City council staff have looked<br />

at four options, in the shopping<br />

centre’s car park at the rear<br />

entrance, the Cranley St former<br />

library site, to upgrade the current<br />

Buckleys Rd shelter with a<br />

waiting lounge, or to upgrade it<br />

without the lounge.<br />

Their recommended option<br />

was to upgrade the current shelter<br />

as it would be cheaper, and<br />

the bus route would not need to<br />

be diverted.<br />

NEW: The<br />

Northlands<br />

Shopping Centre<br />

bus stop was<br />

one of two that<br />

was prioritised<br />

for upgrading<br />

over stops in<br />

Linwood.<br />

But that would require consultation<br />

with neighbouring<br />

property owners, businesses and<br />

the mall.<br />

The Linwood-Central-Heathcote<br />

Community Board decided<br />

on Monday to ask city council<br />

staff to further evaluate upgrading<br />

the bus shelter, so it could be<br />

included in the 2018 Long Term<br />

Plan.<br />

In July, the then Hagley-<br />

Ferrymead Community Board<br />

requested the Greater Christchurch<br />

Public Transport Committee<br />

write a report<br />

looking at options for a covered<br />

interchange for Linwood.<br />

The report said there was<br />

insufficient passenger demand<br />

to justify a waiting lounge.<br />

UPGRADE:<br />

The bus<br />

stop on<br />

Buckleys<br />

Rd next to<br />

Eastgate<br />

will likely be<br />

upgraded<br />

with a<br />

weatherproof,<br />

larger<br />

shelter.<br />

GEOFF<br />

SLOAN<br />

It said in 2005, the city council<br />

identified Eastgate as a key<br />

public transport interchange<br />

site. In 2008, a review by Abley<br />

Transportation showed it to be a<br />

crucial location.<br />

New Brighton<br />

could have<br />

new gateway<br />

•From page 1<br />

He said the plans had not been<br />

made public as they necessitated<br />

the purchase of red zone land,<br />

the future of which had yet to be<br />

decided.<br />

Head of the New Brighton Business<br />

and Landowners Association<br />

Paul Lonsdale said any realignment<br />

could be linked to the city<br />

council New Brighton Centre<br />

Master Plan which proposes a<br />

new north-south road running<br />

through the existing mall from<br />

Oram Ave to Hawke St.<br />

He said the current street layout<br />

was confusing, as traffic drove<br />

along Seaview Rd towards the<br />

shopping area with an expectation<br />

they could park easily. However,<br />

the street then became one-way<br />

before turning right onto Beresford<br />

St.<br />

“It’s a bit of a maze. We do need<br />

to rethink how traffic moves in<br />

this part of New Brighton.”<br />

Mr Lonsdale said he didn’t<br />

know of any plans to shift the<br />

existing retail area, though he had<br />

heard some retailers would like<br />

the mall traffic to go two-way in<br />

Seaview Rd.<br />

Any move to realign the bridge<br />

would need require “major consultation,”<br />

he said.<br />

Church buys supermarket site<br />

• By Sarla Donovan<br />

THE FORMER Pages Rd New<br />

World supermarket is to be<br />

turned into office space.<br />

The building and car park<br />

on the corner of Pages Rd and<br />

Breezes Rd has been largely<br />

empty since Foodstuffs vacated<br />

the building in 2006.<br />

The Celebration Property<br />

Trust, part of the Wainoni-based<br />

Celebration Church, reached<br />

settlement on the property last<br />

Tuesday and planned to repair<br />

and refit the building before<br />

leasing it to tenants.<br />

interest in the<br />

ANTISOCIAL behaviour in<br />

Doris Lusk Reserve needs to be<br />

sorted out “once and for all.”<br />

The Linwood-<br />

Central-Heathcote<br />

Community Board<br />

is looking at options,<br />

which include setting<br />

up a wet-house<br />

or a drop-in centre<br />

nearby.<br />

Corey Watkinson said they<br />

would be interested to see who<br />

else “comes out of the woodwork”<br />

over the coming months.<br />

He estimated the cost of structural<br />

repairs and fit-out to be<br />

around $2 million.<br />

Engineers will be on-site this<br />

week and they hoped to have<br />

the 2500 sq m building ready for<br />

lease by the end of the year.<br />

He said the trust was very<br />

happy with the purchase. “It’s<br />

good to see something productive<br />

come from the site. Purely<br />

from an eastside residents [point<br />

of view] it’s good to see it move<br />

forward into something productive.<br />

For us it’s a commercial investment<br />

spurred by the fact it’s<br />

Board member Alexandra Davids<br />

said there had been ongoing<br />

issues with homeless people using<br />

the reserve, as well as people<br />

abusing alcohol and drugs.<br />

“We are looking at setting up<br />

a wet-house where alcohol-dependent<br />

people can get help and<br />

be off the street. Alternatively, a<br />

drop in centre could be looked<br />

at.”<br />

Miss Davids said the board<br />

didn’t have a fixed plan as yet,<br />

but was planning to meet with<br />

the Te Whare Roimata Trust and<br />

local police to take a more coordinated<br />

approach.<br />

“We were looking at a liquor<br />

ban, that’s one thing that could<br />

been sitting there without any<br />

activity. We’re concerned that as<br />

this part of the city is rebuilt, we<br />

want that site to have a positive<br />

use.”<br />

Coastal-Burwood Community<br />

Board chairwoman Kim Money<br />

INVESTMENT: The<br />

Celebration Property<br />

Trust has bought<br />

the former New<br />

World supermarket<br />

building (left) in<br />

Pages Rd and plans<br />

to turn it into office<br />

space. The trust also<br />

owns the former<br />

Donaghy’s factory<br />

which it is turning<br />

into an indoor sports<br />

centre (artist’s<br />

impression below).<br />

was positive about the purchase.<br />

“Any enhancement for our<br />

community is greatly welcomed.<br />

I am very aware of the fact that<br />

the local churches have been<br />

very proactive in our two wards<br />

by rolling up their sleeves and<br />

helping to create positive change<br />

where needed.”<br />

The trust is also developing a<br />

12,000 sq m indoor sports complex<br />

in the former Donaghy’s<br />

factory in Pages Rd.<br />

Building consent will be<br />

lodged in June for the $8 million<br />

facility.<br />

It will feature two timberfloored<br />

courts for basketball and<br />

netball, four multi-use netted<br />

courts for cricket, soccer and<br />

other sports, and a 200m indoor<br />

athletics track.<br />

The complex is expected to be<br />

finished in late 2018.<br />

help, but we don’t want to move<br />

the issue to another area.”<br />

Collective for the Homeless coordinator<br />

Brenda Lowe-Johnson,<br />

who is also a Linwood-Central-<br />

Heathcote Community Board<br />

member, felt a liquor ban<br />

would just shift the problem<br />

elsewhere.<br />

She said a recent hui organised<br />

by the collective gave strong support<br />

for a drop-in centre.<br />

“They want a place where<br />

they can come and do laundry,<br />

shower and drop in for coffee.”<br />

Te Whare Roimata Trust coordinator<br />

Jenny Smith said there<br />

had been a drop-in centre in the<br />

central city but it was demolished<br />

after the earthquakes.<br />

“We know that’s something<br />

they [the homeless] really miss.<br />

A place they can go and be a<br />

whanau together – that’s what<br />

the park provides at the moment.”<br />

The trust, which provides<br />

grassroots help to residents in<br />

the eastern inner-city, was pushing<br />

for positive solutions to the<br />

problem.<br />

Triathlete’s<br />

path to glory<br />

•From page 1<br />

The weeks are busy with four<br />

pool, three run and three cycle<br />

sessions. To keep it competitive,<br />

she spends most of her time<br />

training with a lot of the top boys<br />

at the academy.<br />

“It’s about putting her into an<br />

environment where she’s being<br />

pushed,” said Reiser.<br />

He believes that Graham<br />

shows all the signs for them to be<br />

hopeful about her development.<br />

However, like all young athletes,<br />

there are a lot of factors in the<br />

future which will determine what<br />

she could go on to achieve.<br />

“If you look at her times and<br />

compare that to previous Olympic<br />

champions, then she is now<br />

faster than them at this stage,”<br />

said Reiser.<br />

Graham currently competes<br />

over the sprint distance, which<br />

consists of a 750m swim, 20km<br />

bike and 5km run, half the length<br />

of the sport’s Olympic distance.<br />

She’s been able to get a good<br />

gauge of where she wants to get<br />

to. Since dedicating her time to<br />

triathlon, she has had the opportunity<br />

to work alongside New<br />

Zealand’s top female triathlete<br />

Andrea Hewitt. They swim<br />

together under the guidance of<br />

Roly Crichton, who trains New<br />

Zealand’s most successful Paralympian<br />

Sophie Pascoe.<br />

“I used to train with Roly at<br />

QE II when I was younger,” said<br />

Graham.<br />

“I’ve always kept in touch with<br />

him and, when I finished school,<br />

I was able to train with him<br />

again.<br />

“Andrea is really east to talk<br />

to and it’s amazing being able to<br />

train with someone who’s so accomplished.”<br />

CORRECTION<br />

Last week the <strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong><br />

Waitakiri School where Ollie Mc-<br />

Cosh was incorrectly identified<br />

as the head boy. He is in fact on<br />

the student council. The head boy<br />

and head girl titles for the school<br />

Anita Darnell<br />

Providing quality time for families<br />

Anita Darnell has<br />

run the Children and<br />

Families Ministry of<br />

the Parklands Baptist<br />

Community Church<br />

for three years. Sarla<br />

Donovan talks to her<br />

about date nights,<br />

screen time and why<br />

she loves living in postearthquake<br />

Parklands.<br />

What brought you to<br />

Christchurch Anita?<br />

We were living in Hamilton<br />

and my husband got a promotion<br />

so we moved down here and<br />

we’ve been here for the last 13<br />

years. I was born in Lincoln, my<br />

parents actually farmed out in<br />

Lincoln when I was a baby and<br />

then they moved up to Blenheim<br />

and we grew up there. Marlborough<br />

Girls is part of my upbringing.<br />

I love the community I live<br />

in, it’s one of the better parts of<br />

Christchurch, because of the<br />

community feeling. Especially<br />

after the earthquakes, people<br />

pulled together, they cared about<br />

their neighbours and there was<br />

lots of activity. I like the schools;<br />

it’s a good community to bring<br />

kids up in, there’s lots of things<br />

readily available for them. We’re<br />

close to forests, close to playgrounds,<br />

got a great local library<br />

and we’re not far from the beach.<br />

We rented in Bexley when we<br />

first moved here and then bought<br />

in Parklands so we’ve been here<br />

about 12 years now.<br />

Can you tell me a bit about<br />

your family?<br />

I met my husband Mike at<br />

church in Hamilton, we met<br />

through friends. He’s an engineer<br />

who works for Opus. We’ve<br />

got two boys James and Mason,<br />

both at Parklands School. They<br />

keep me busy with soccer, swimming,<br />

after-school sports. James<br />

is doing trumpet lessons and<br />

we’re looking at that for Mason.<br />

They keep us busy that’s for sure.<br />

HELPING HAND: Anita Darnell loves her job working with children and families at the Parklands<br />

Baptist Community Church.<br />

Family time is important to<br />

you – do you have strict rules at<br />

home around screen time?<br />

We try to limit screen time.<br />

There are days when we don’t<br />

have screens because we’re busy<br />

doing other things and days<br />

when they probably have a little<br />

bit more than they should. Days<br />

we wish they didn’t have them<br />

at all. I think you’ve got to be<br />

really careful around the screen<br />

and what games your children<br />

are playing because of all the<br />

things that they can unknowingly<br />

do with social media and<br />

even games like Roblox and<br />

Minecraft. It’s so easy for them<br />

to get trapped or tricked so we’re<br />

really conscious about talking<br />

to our kids about the computer<br />

only being used within our sights<br />

where we can monitor what<br />

they’re doing and we’ve got some<br />

safety net stuff on our computer<br />

too.<br />

What’s a typical day like running<br />

the Children and Families<br />

Ministry at the church?<br />

I work part-time, 10 hours a<br />

week. That does get stretched a<br />

bit sometimes. A typical Tuesday<br />

would be music groups in the<br />

morning for caregivers, parents<br />

and pre-schoolers, followed by<br />

staff meetings and planning<br />

for the next activities. We run<br />

a dads’ out-group which meets<br />

once a month. It’s a place where<br />

dads can come, hang out with<br />

their kids, have a bacon butty<br />

and a cup of coffee and just meet<br />

other dads in the community<br />

and not feel so isolated. I think<br />

some dads are a bit nervous going<br />

out in public either because<br />

they’ll get stared at because<br />

they’re with their children –<br />

which is a sad commentary on<br />

society – or some other reason.<br />

It’s just a friendly place where<br />

they can feel relaxed and the kids<br />

can have fun.<br />

Have you always done this<br />

type of work?<br />

I’ve always had a bent towards<br />

working with families; I’m a<br />

trained primary school teacher.<br />

I’ve worked as a pre-school<br />

teacher and also worked at a<br />

church up in Hamilton as their<br />

children and families person.<br />

I only worked as a relieving<br />

primary school teacher. It’s a lot<br />

of work, even as a pre-school<br />

teacher. I enjoyed it, but after I<br />

became a mum myself, I wanted<br />

to spend time with my own<br />

children and as they got older I<br />

was keen to be involved in the<br />

community.<br />

What do you love about your<br />

job?<br />

I love the people. I love doing<br />

things for and with people.<br />

That’s why I do it – not for the<br />

money. Above all, I want people<br />

to feel that we care about them,<br />

that they’re important, and that<br />

there’s someone there for them if<br />

they need help or a listening ear.<br />

I want to provide activities that<br />

don’t cost the earth, opportunities<br />

for parents to make memories<br />

with their children. One of<br />

the big things that came out in<br />

surveys after the earthquakes<br />

was that parents wanted things<br />

to do in the area that didn’t cost<br />

the earth, which they could go<br />

to as a family and would be fun<br />

to do together, so we’re trying to<br />

meet that need. We run a Christmas<br />

in the Park in December,<br />

which is a big event we put on for<br />

the community with local talent<br />

as well as our church band and<br />

singers. Last year we had mini-<br />

Jeeps and big balls, barbecues,<br />

all that stuff. It’s about coming<br />

out and having a fun night and<br />

celebrating Christmas together.<br />

What’s one of the biggest<br />

challenges facing parents<br />

today?<br />

Busyness. Probably one of the<br />

biggest challenges is trying to<br />

spend quality time with your<br />

children. A lot of families in our<br />

community have both parents<br />

working, and for them, it’s having<br />

that quality time with their<br />

children over the weekend. That’s<br />

part of the reason we provide<br />

things for families in our area, so<br />

they can come along and it’s not<br />

an expensive outing for them as<br />

a family. We recently ran a movie<br />

night for different age groups<br />

on the same night and the same<br />

place so parents could come out<br />

and have a date night but their<br />

children were being looked after<br />

at the same time. A lot of couples<br />

really appreciated that they could<br />

have a date night and it wasn’t<br />

costing them a fortune.<br />

What’s on your bucket list?<br />

I’m pretty content. That sounds<br />

terrible doesn’t it. I’d love to take<br />

the kids to Disney World, that<br />

would be pretty cool. For me<br />

personally, I’m pretty happy with<br />

how things are. If I was to die<br />

tomorrow, I don’t have anything<br />

I wish I’d done. I’m pretty happy<br />

with my life.<br />

Fitness trail planned for Burwood<br />

• By Sarla Donovan<br />

A PLANNED public fitness trail at<br />

Burwood Park will have six fitness<br />

machines or stations.<br />

The city council has identified Burwood<br />

Park south as an ideal site for the<br />

fitness trail due to its size, the number<br />

of sporting groups that use the park<br />

facilities, and the easy access and visibility<br />

for the public.<br />

In a set up that will be similar to that<br />

found in Hagley Park, the stations will<br />

include push-up bars, parallel and chinup<br />

bars, an air walker and a pull down<br />

exerciser.<br />

The Dallington Community Cottage<br />

Trust originally approached the city<br />

council about creating a fitness trail.<br />

The planned location in Burwood<br />

Park south is next to Cresswell Ave,<br />

either side of the existing playground<br />

and basketball court.<br />

The project is a partnership between<br />

Dallington Community Cottage Trust,<br />

which is donating the equipment, and<br />

the city council which has agreed to pay<br />

for the costs of installation. The project<br />

is estimated to cost $60,000 overall.<br />

The city council has prepared landscape<br />

plans and is now seeking feedback<br />

from the local community prior to<br />

starting construction towards the end<br />

of the year.<br />

The public has until <strong>April</strong> 21 to present<br />

submissions.

HEALTH & BEAUTY<br />

Joint pain: Do I have arthritis or<br />

could it be mainly my muscles?<br />

The team at Physical Sense in Sydenham sees clients with<br />

a range of symptoms but many of their middle-aged and<br />

senior clients visit complaining of pain in one of their joints.<br />

PhysiotheraPist ietje van<br />

stolk suggests that a major part of the<br />

pain could be due to muscle pain rather<br />

than simply arthritis. “even if an x-ray<br />

shows arthritis, the reason for the pain<br />

may be the muscles around the joint,”<br />

she explains. The images show how<br />

a muscle knot (the crosses) in a back<br />

muscle can give hip pain (aches and pain<br />

are the red areas in the drawings), a knot<br />

in a muscle on the back of the shoulder<br />

blade can give a deep pain in the front<br />

of the shoulder and a muscle knot all the<br />

way near the groin can give an ache in<br />

the knee (especially at night in bed).<br />

ietje recalls one case where an 89<br />

year old client with severe arthritis who<br />

walked with a stick, told her, “i will<br />

end up in a wheelchair, i cannot put<br />

any weight through my right leg due to<br />

pain in my hip and buttock”. “Within<br />

4 treatments, she was walking with<br />

her stick but without the severe pain,”<br />

says ietje. “The arthritis was one of the<br />

factors that made her muscles spasm but<br />

the other was that older people move<br />

less and the flexed position the hip is<br />

in when we sit is particularly bad for<br />

the hip.” ietje is happy with the fact that<br />

although the client was 89 and could<br />

have been “given up on” or told to live<br />

with the pain, she made a difference to<br />

her health and wellbeing.<br />

The same lack of movement can<br />

be the reason for your knee pain or<br />

your shoulder pain and the same few<br />

treatments could make a huge difference<br />

for you.<br />

at Physical sense, hands-on<br />

techniques (massage and triggerpoint<br />

deactivation techniques) are used<br />

to release the muscles. The client<br />

also gets a home exercise program<br />

designed to mobilize and stretch the<br />

joint, strengthen the important core<br />

muscles and increase general strength<br />

and balance. They teach a movement<br />

sequence that stretches the joint in all<br />

directions whilst the client is able to lie<br />

safely on their bed, perfect for older or<br />

SHOULDER<br />

PAIN<br />

KNEE PAIN<br />

(the crosses are the areas of the muscle spasms, the red areas is where the pain is felt)<br />

less mobile clients.<br />

in many cases having the muscles<br />

released and being taught how to<br />

maintain it, is enough to stay on top of<br />

the problem. if severe arthritis is the<br />

underlying cause, some maintenance<br />

therapy may be necessary, but that is<br />

often more affordable and, for older<br />

patients, better tolerated than surgery. in<br />

very few treatments the client will know<br />

HIP PAIN<br />

if it is going to work for them or not,<br />

without financial commitment.<br />

Physical Sense Gym & Physio<br />

is located at 300 Colombo Street,<br />

Sydenham. The Blue Line Bus stops in<br />

front of the door and there is ample<br />

parking. To enquire about specialised<br />

exercise classes or physiotherapy<br />

treatment, phone 377-2577 or visit<br />

Chronic pain in one<br />

of your joints?<br />

Even if your joint is not in the best<br />

shape, a major part of the pain could<br />

be caused by the muscles surrounding<br />

the joint.<br />

At Physical Sense we have good results<br />

with releasing the muscles (with hands<br />

on techniques) and increasing your<br />

strength and flexibility. Within a few<br />

treatments you will know if this is<br />

what you need.<br />
