Oli back home after<br />
a year on<br />
the prowl<br />
• By Sarla Donovan<br />
OLI THE cat is back.<br />
Well, owner Lyn<br />
Gottermeyer is 99 per cent sure<br />
it’s Oli.<br />
The big maine coon lookalike<br />
went missing in June last<br />
year and Mrs Gottermeyer,<br />
who lives in Marshland, said<br />
after months and months of<br />
searching, she’d given up any<br />
hopes of finding him when<br />
her daughter noticed a post<br />
on the Lost Cats Christchurch<br />
Facebook page last month.<br />
“ ‘Mum, I think that’s Oli,’<br />
she said. I took a look and he<br />
had the same markings. It was<br />
a lady in Spreydon who’d found<br />
him, he’d been hanging around<br />
her place and then took up<br />
residence in her garden.”<br />
Jeanette O’Connor, who<br />
posted his photo on the<br />
Facebook page, has a labrador<br />
and three cats of her own and<br />
Oli had been going in and<br />
stealing food from them.<br />
“She cried when I went and<br />
picked him up,” said Mrs<br />
Gottermeyer.<br />
So how did he end up<br />
travelling from Marshland to<br />
Spreydon?<br />
“I think either someone<br />
took him because of the way<br />
he looks, or he’s got into<br />
someone’s vehicle. We<br />
had contractors around<br />
the day he went missing<br />
and he’s very inquisitive.<br />
He might have climbed<br />
into their van.”<br />
Mrs Gottermeyer kept<br />
him inside for a week<br />
after he returned, just<br />
to make sure he didn’t<br />
disappear again.<br />
She thinks he must have<br />
eaten well as he’s “a bit<br />
broader” than when he left.<br />
“I’ve noticed he doesn’t like<br />
my husband as much, but<br />
I’ve got three fox terriers and<br />
they always got on well. One<br />
of them went and laid down<br />
in front of him. He likes to<br />
be outside; he always used to<br />
sleep on the back porch but<br />
now he goes down to the creek<br />
somewhere and gets soaking<br />
wet. He’s one of a kind, Oli.”<br />
MEOW: Pet Oli is back with<br />
owner Lyn Gottermeyer after<br />
disappearing for a year.<br />
Gym club<br />
stumbles<br />
over<br />
proposal<br />
to build<br />
on QE II<br />
• By Sarla Donovan<br />
IT’S BACK to the drawing board<br />
for the Christchurch School of<br />
Gymnastics after its proposed<br />
new building site was rejected by<br />
residents.<br />
The club has been in its<br />
current spot at QE II Park for<br />
21 years, but says the cost of<br />
repairing the building is high and<br />
it wants to relocate closer to the<br />
new QE II Recreation and Sports<br />
Centre.<br />
However, Dan O’Sullivan, who<br />
lives near Ascot Ave, said he and<br />
at least 25 nearby residents aren’t<br />
happy about the spot that has<br />
been chosen, and they’ve made<br />
their voices heard in two recent<br />
meetings at the proposed site.<br />
Coastal-Ward city councillor<br />
David East said a “co-operative”<br />
discussion was held on Thursday<br />
between the CSG, city council<br />
staff, Coastal-Burwood<br />
Community Board members and<br />
residents.<br />

FROM<br />
THE<br />
EDITOR’S<br />
DESK<br />
RESIDENTS LIVING near QE<br />
II have had to put up with a lot<br />
since the earthquakes: Battered<br />
properties, liquefaction, EQC and<br />
insurance companies.<br />
Now they’re fighting again; this<br />
time about the site for the new<br />
Christchurch School of Gymnastics,<br />
which was badly damaged in<br />
the February 22, 2011, quake (see<br />
page 1).<br />
Ascot Ave residents and others<br />
living nearby aren’t happy with<br />
the planned new site. They met<br />
last week with gym officials and<br />
the local community board.<br />
The school will look at presenting<br />
other site options at QE II, but<br />
the one residents don’t want still<br />
hasn’t been ruled out.<br />
And on page 4, resident Dan<br />
O’Sullivan has his say in our regular<br />
Soap Box column on plans to<br />
shorten the training track at QE<br />
II. What would Her Majesty say!<br />

Progress on Dudley Creek<br />
scheme eases flood worries<br />
RESIDENTS IN the Flockton<br />
area will sleep easier next time<br />
they hear rain pelting against<br />
their roofs.<br />
Key parts of the Dudley<br />
Creek flood mitigation scheme<br />
have now been completed.<br />
Last week saw the final part<br />
of the 800m bypass installed<br />
that will take stormwater from<br />
Petrie St to the Avon River.<br />
More than 500 properties<br />
now have increased flood<br />
protection to restore Flockton<br />
and surrounding areas to preearthquake<br />
levels of flood risk.<br />
The bypass is one of the<br />
biggest in the country and has<br />
been built by laying about 500<br />
box-shaped concrete pipes endto-end.<br />
The pipes weigh between four<br />
and five tonne each and measure<br />
4m x 2m.<br />
Most of the time, the bypass<br />
will be dry. It is only designed<br />
to be used when there is heavy<br />
rain and a risk of Dudley Creek<br />
overflowing.<br />
“Now, if we have a heavy<br />
rainfall, we’ll be able to divert<br />
over 8 cu m of flood water<br />
every second from Dudley<br />
Creek to the Avon River,” said<br />
city council land drainage<br />
manager Keith Davison.<br />
“This, combined with all the<br />
other aspects of the scheme<br />
we’ve been working on over<br />
the last few years, means we<br />
can now reassure hundreds of<br />
households that their flood risk<br />
has been significantly reduced.”<br />
There is still work to be done<br />
on other aspects of the flood<br />
remediation scheme, including<br />
the Hills Rd culvert, Shirley<br />
Stream widening and road<br />
renewal in the area.<br />
“While we are thrilled that<br />
we’ve met our target deadline<br />
to significantly reduce flood<br />
risk, we are very conscious<br />
that until we’re finished all<br />
the works, there will still be<br />
disruption and inconvenience<br />
for people in these areas,” Mr<br />
Davison said.<br />

GRANT FOR CENTRE<br />
The Pūkeko Centre development<br />
has been awarded a $400,000<br />
grant from the lottery community<br />
facilities fund. The joint venture<br />
between two sports clubs has seen<br />
the relocation of two buildings<br />
from the now closed Freeville<br />
School on to the Parklands<br />
Bowling Club site. The money will<br />
go towards setting up the former<br />
school hall to provide a venue for<br />
indoor sports, performances and<br />
events.<br />
FUMES CAUSE INJURY<br />
A man was taken to Christchurch<br />
Hospital after fumes from a<br />
generator filled the building he<br />
was in. St John were called to the<br />
scene on Travis Country Drive,<br />
Burwood, at about 7.40am last<br />
Wednesday and found a man<br />
feeling dizzy from the fumes.<br />
Firefighters were called to assist<br />
ambulance staff and he was taken<br />
to hospital with moderate injuries.<br />
QEII DRIVE EXPANSION<br />
Steel safety barriers are being<br />
installed on QE II Drive this<br />
week, from Grimseys to Innes Rd.<br />
There will also be site clearance<br />
work involving tree felling and<br />
vegetation removal along QE II<br />
Drive, allowing work to start on<br />
building two new traffic lanes.<br />
There may be delays for road users<br />
while the work is taking place.<br />

•HAVE YOUR SAY: What do you think of the decision to shorten the<br />
QE II fitness track? Email sarla.donovan@starmedia.kiwi with your views.<br />
Leave fitness track alone<br />
North New<br />
Brighton<br />
resident Dan<br />
O’Sullivan<br />
urges the<br />
Ministry of<br />
Education<br />
to rethink its<br />
decision to shorten the QE<br />
II fitness track. It is shortsighted,<br />
he writes, and<br />
goes against the wishes of<br />
many residents<br />
Common sense tells me I<br />
should not be writing this. We<br />
should not have to fight to keep<br />
something that everyone wants.<br />
The 2.2km QE II fitness and<br />
walking track follows the perimeter<br />
of QE II park. It is well<br />
used by walkers, joggers and<br />
cyclists. It also gives walking<br />
access to the Travis Rd shops. It<br />
was built by local residents and<br />
the council 10m at a time on the<br />
weekends.<br />
The Ministry of Education<br />
has bought a large portion of<br />
QE II park for two new schools.<br />
The ministry wants to take the<br />
schools’ boundary right up to<br />
the back fence of the Bower Ave<br />
residences, leaving no corridor<br />
for the track – forcing it to be<br />
diverted and shortened.<br />
As a local and regular user<br />
of the track, I am generally in<br />
favour of two new schools proposed<br />
for the park. There was<br />
one condition of my approval<br />
though – keep the full track.<br />
Many people who I have spoken<br />
to are in agreement with this<br />
view.<br />
Recently the Ministry of<br />
Education was found to be<br />
wanting in the way it dealt with<br />
Christchurch schools restructuring<br />
after the earthquakes.<br />
The ministry did not listen to<br />
many people who were opposed<br />
to the restructuring they were<br />
doing.<br />
Now is the time to listen.<br />
Why go against logic and<br />
close off an asset that helps<br />
keep people fit and active, keeps<br />
kids off the roads and provides<br />
a quiet place for people to<br />
meet each other? The schools<br />
will also benefit as it will be a<br />
convenient asset for physical<br />
education.<br />
Consultation after the earthquakes<br />
showed that the people<br />
of Christchurch want a greener<br />
and more accessible city. Closing<br />
the full track runs counter<br />
to that vision. It has been an<br />
oversight by the planners and<br />
one that is easily fixed.<br />
Open up areas for public use<br />
and you engender a sense of<br />
ownership and therefore pride.<br />
Close them off and the opposite<br />
tends to happen.<br />
I urge the city council to approach<br />
the Ministry of Education<br />
to see common sense, and<br />
leave the 2.2km track alone.<br />
We said:<br />
Linwood College will shift<br />
to the site of Avonside Girls’<br />
High School while its whole<br />
school is rebuilt<br />
You said:<br />
Lisa Armstrong – This has<br />
made me so mad. I have had several<br />
chats with the principal and<br />
others and all said that they won’t<br />
be moving, as they didn’t want it<br />
to interfere with the students and<br />
thought moving sites would do<br />
more harm than good. The original<br />
plan was to do one block that<br />
was not being used at the time,<br />
i.e. build a new gym on site, then<br />
remove the old building. Sounds<br />
like saving money became the first<br />
priority.<br />
VISION: Architect Carsten<br />
Auer, who will redesign<br />
Linwood College, stands in<br />
the school’s recreation area.<br />
PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER <br />
Laura McIntosh – Lots of<br />
chopping and changing and moving<br />
of sites to create this ASGH/<br />
SBHS super-school. Seems like<br />
they should be staying where they<br />
are. Is Linwood going to adopt this<br />
new student-led learning policy<br />
like Haeata?<br />
Raewyn Roberts – Just so<br />
long as it looks good in the hood<br />
seems to be the priority for the architect.<br />
“This project is special not<br />
only for its scale but in particular<br />
for the strong pedagogical vision<br />
developed by the college and the<br />
leadership role it is looking to undertake<br />
in the revitalisation of the<br />
eastern suburbs of Christchurch.”<br />
He said the project was personal<br />
for him as he lived in Redcliffs,<br />
which was part of Linwood’s<br />
catchment, and he wanted to<br />
contribute to shaping the future<br />
of the school. No mention of the<br />
students . . .<br />

Flood plan draws controversy<br />
• By Sarla Donovan<br />
THERE’S BEEN mixed feedback<br />
on a proposed new water storage<br />
scheme for Aranui and Wainoni.<br />
An area north-west of the<br />
Pages Rd and Anzac Dr intersection<br />
has been proposed as the site<br />
for new flood storage ponds.<br />
Of the 14 submissions received<br />
during a two-week public consultation,<br />
almost half had concerns<br />
and two did not support the plan.<br />
The concerns related to the<br />
link into Farnborough Reserve,<br />
maintenance of the area when<br />
built, the possibility of changing<br />
the footpath on Pages Rd to a<br />
shared path to connect with Anzac<br />
Dr, the potential for midges<br />
and mosquitos, and the impact<br />
on existing homeowners.<br />
There are 13 houses in the<br />
scheme area, five of which the<br />
city council owned before the<br />
earthquakes.<br />
The other seven houses are<br />
currently occupied.<br />
Keith Davison, city council<br />
land drainage manager, said<br />
there were three submissions<br />
from landowners, all of which<br />
supported the proposal.<br />
He said the city council<br />
would need to pass a resolution<br />
that “supports the preferred<br />
construction options” before it<br />
could negotiate with landowners.<br />
HOME: Ninety-year-old Dorothy Grieve wasn’t keen on selling<br />
her home for a city council flood storage scheme. <br />
“If that occurs, we will enter<br />
into negotiations with property<br />
owners and only then will we<br />
be able to understand fully their<br />
views on selling.”<br />
Property owner Dorothy<br />
Grieve, who is 90-years-old, has<br />
said she is not keen on selling her<br />
home as she didn’t know where<br />
she would go if she had to sell.<br />
Ground levels in some parts<br />
have dropped by up to a metre<br />
in the Knight’s Drain catchment<br />
zone, which covers parts of<br />
Aranui and Wainoni, putting<br />
houses at greater flood risk<br />
due to earthquake-related land<br />
damage.<br />
REJECTED: Residents have opposed Christchurch School of<br />
Gymnastics’ proposal to build its new headquarters on a site<br />
at QE II Park.<br />
Gym club stumbles<br />
•From page 1<br />
As a result, a new consultation<br />
document will now be drawn<br />
up and delivered to the local<br />
community within the next few<br />
weeks. It will present several<br />
options which may include the<br />
original QE II site.<br />
Mr O’Sullivan said he was<br />
pleased there would be other<br />
options put on the table as the<br />
current proposal was in the<br />
middle of the sports grounds<br />
and partially covered one of the<br />
rugby fields.<br />
“It’s going to be an eyesore,<br />
built on a prime position in the<br />
middle of the park. That rugby<br />
field is well-used. They’ve already<br />
covered up a playing field<br />
for the schools (Shirley Boys and<br />
Avonside Girls’ High).”<br />
“It seems like there’s a land<br />
grab. We don’t mind the schools,<br />
but the gym school, which is a<br />
private company, doesn’t need<br />
to be there. It’s an ugly, tilt-slab,<br />
single-use building, a private<br />
facility in the middle of a public<br />
park.”<br />
“They’re trying to piggy-back<br />
on the pool but we can’t see their<br />
point (about wanting to be closer<br />
to the recreation centre).”<br />
The club has said it wants to<br />
remain close to the recreation<br />

use both facilities in one<br />

Rescuing animals<br />
all part of the job<br />
• By Mark Thomas – specialist fire<br />
investigator<br />
I’M NOT sure what got into the<br />
pets of Halswell last week but<br />
over just two days our crews<br />
were called to three animal<br />
rescues in the suburb.<br />
First a dog chased a rabbit<br />
underneath a childcare centre –<br />
and stayed there.<br />
It was retrieved. Second, a<br />
horse was stuck down a bank at<br />
Kennedy’s Bush. With local help<br />
and a vet on-site it was winched<br />
up.<br />
Finally, an old fashioned catup-a-tree<br />
event in Arkwright Pl<br />
shows no record of just what was<br />
done in the radio message log.<br />
It might still be there. But I<br />
doubt it.<br />
To complete this animal report<br />
a mama duck from Bromley,<br />
who is a bit out of season with<br />
her troop of ducklings, fell into<br />
a drain only to be rescued by the<br />
good lads of the Woolston Fire<br />
Station.<br />
A bit early in the year you’d<br />
think. I hope they all survive.<br />
There were fires of course.<br />
A very elderly lady wielding a<br />
walking stick actively prevented<br />
neighbours evacuating her from<br />
her home in Sockburn after a<br />
kitchen fire on June 24.<br />
Consequently, she was treated<br />
for smoke inhalation at the<br />
scene.<br />
Someone in Redwood used a<br />
toaster as a cigarette lighter by<br />
lying it on its side on June 23.<br />
Not too surprisingly the<br />
toaster caught fire.<br />
There’s a thousand ways your<br />
house can catch fire.<br />
But there are many hundreds<br />
of thousands of houses.<br />
Most will never burn.<br />
A bit of common sense makes<br />
it much less likely.<br />
Just how common that common<br />
sense is, I sometimes<br />
wonder.<br />
Council makes peace with RSA<br />
over Brighton memorial panels<br />
• By Sarla Donovan<br />
AN APOLOGY has been<br />
extended to the New Brighton<br />
RSA after it copped some of<br />
the blame for the “ugly” panels<br />
installed around the war<br />
memorial by the city council.<br />
The $25,000 panels were<br />
intended to protect the New<br />
Brighton War Memorial from<br />
vandalism.<br />
But after their installation<br />
in May, they received almost<br />
universal condemnation from<br />
the community. The panels were<br />
called “hideous”, “horrible” and<br />
compared to the Berlin Wall.<br />
City council staff apologised<br />
for their poor communication on<br />
the issue at a meeting with New<br />
Brighton RSA executive manager<br />
Garry House on Friday.<br />
Mr House said although they’d<br />
agreed to the panels, they had<br />
never seen an image of what they<br />
would look like.<br />
He said the city council<br />
had failed to communicate<br />
directly with the New Brighton<br />
RSA, instead directing<br />
their correspondence to the<br />
Christchurch RSA, a completely<br />
separate group.<br />
Mr House said he was keen to<br />
move on and was working cooperatively<br />
with the city council<br />
to resolve the issue.<br />
Andrew Rutledge, city<br />
council head of parks, said the<br />
city council would continue to<br />
“monitor the situation and liaise<br />
with the community to ascertain<br />
if and when it might be prudent<br />
to remove the barriers.”<br />
Mr House said the city council<br />
had asked him to consult New<br />
Brighton RSA members about<br />
different options for protecting<br />
the memorial.<br />
One option could involve<br />
LOOKING<br />
AHEAD: The<br />
city council has<br />
apologised to the<br />
New Brighton<br />
RSA for poor<br />
communication<br />
over the war<br />
memorial panels.<br />

Coastal-Burwood Community<br />
Board chairwoman Kim Money,<br />
who was also at Friday’s meeting,<br />
said it was good to get everybody<br />
around the table.<br />
“We want to look forward<br />
rather than back.”<br />
Mr House said he hoped to<br />
meet with the city council again<br />
this week after speaking to RSA<br />
members.<br />

Unsightly trees<br />
concern residents<br />
• By Sarla Donovan<br />
DEAD macrocarpa and pine<br />
trees at the former Pleasant<br />
Point Yacht Club site are<br />
unsightly, depressing and a<br />
“serious health concern.”<br />
The Southshore Residents Association<br />
want the trees removed<br />
urgently and have written to the<br />
Coastal-Burwood Community<br />
Board expressing “shock” at<br />
finding out the city council<br />
intended them to provide a permanent<br />
nesting spot for birds.<br />
Association<br />
spokesman Simon<br />
Brown said<br />
neither he nor<br />
any other Southshore<br />
residents<br />
had ever seen<br />
Hugo<br />
Kristensson<br />
any birds near<br />
the trees, which<br />
were “precariously<br />
balanced”<br />
and posed a health and safety<br />
risk for people using the estuary<br />
edge.<br />
“We are concerned that the<br />
trees could fall on someone and<br />
for the ongoing effect on our<br />
mental health as the eastern<br />
EYESORE: Residents want these dead trees beside the Bridge<br />
St bridge removed.<br />
suburbs continue to be forgotten<br />
in the recovery of the city,” Mr<br />
Brown said.<br />
South Brighton Residents Association<br />
chairman Hugo Kristensson<br />
agreed they should go.<br />
They were “ghostly” and “not<br />
very attractive,” he said. “We<br />
need to tidy the area up, everyone<br />
agrees on that.”<br />
Salt water intrusion relating<br />
to the February 22, 2011,<br />
earthquake had killed a number<br />
of trees around the Avon-<br />
Heathcote Estuary edge, some of<br />
which were removed in 2012.<br />
Mr Kristensson said the city<br />
council had decided to leave<br />
some for herons and other birds<br />
to nest in.<br />
But he said he had never seen<br />
any birds nesting in the trees.<br />
Council properties may be sold<br />
• By Sarla Donovan<br />
NOT<br />
NEEDED:<br />
This city<br />

land<br />
on Ben<br />
Rarere Ave<br />
in Wainoni<br />
may be<br />
sold to<br />
Housing<br />
New<br />
Zealand.<br />
FIVE CITY council properties<br />
will be sold unless the Coastal-<br />
Burwood Community Board can<br />
find alternative uses.<br />
The land parcels are no longer<br />
required for their original purpose<br />
and the board is looking to<br />
repurpose or sell off the land.<br />
Any alternative use would need<br />
to establish a clear community<br />
need, have prior city council<br />
funding and make sound business<br />
sense.<br />
All in Burwood or Wainoni,<br />
the five parcels are a piece of bare<br />
land on the corner of Lakewood<br />
Drive and Wichita Pl; an accessway<br />
at 35 Yarmouth St; reserve<br />
land at 242F Lake Tce Road and<br />
two sections on Ben Rarere Ave.<br />
The Ben Rarere sections have a<br />
rating valuation of $250,000 and<br />
the city council has had discussions<br />
with Housing New Zealand<br />
around a possible purchase.<br />
However city council head of<br />
facilities, property and planning,<br />
Bruce Rendall, said while the sections<br />
are not listed on any contaminated<br />
land databases, there<br />
was a “possibility of asbestos<br />
containing materials in the soil.”<br />
He said this was based<br />
on surveys undertaken by<br />
adjacent landowners of their<br />
properties, but added there<br />
was “no immediate risk to the<br />
community,” though the issue<br />
required further investigation.<br />
The Coastal-Burwood<br />
Community Board has six<br />
months in which to make a<br />
decision to retain or sell the land<br />
parcels.<br />
They are amoung 68 city council<br />
properties across Christchurch<br />
that are no longer required<br />
for their original purpose.<br />

Mall garden gifted to school<br />
• By Amelia Christensen-Rose<br />
A TEAM of 15 mothers,<br />
fathers, grandparents and staff<br />
have installed a new garden<br />
at Rawhiti School, along with<br />
members of Greening the<br />
Rubble.<br />
The Pod Oasis garden was<br />
originally constructed in the<br />
Re:Start Mall. But with the mall<br />
closing down this year, Greening<br />
the Rubble – a charitable trust<br />
that creates and maintains temporary<br />
public parks on cleared<br />
sites around Christchurch – held<br />
a competition to find a new<br />
home for the garden.<br />
The Pod Oasis, made in 2014,<br />
was designed by Johnathan<br />
Hall and Gina Payne, and was<br />
awarded a silver distinction in<br />
the Ellerslie Flower Show the<br />
same year.<br />
The competition entry, organised<br />
by Rawhiti School Parent<br />
Teacher Association chairwoman<br />
Stephanie Haskell, said: “Our<br />
children in this earthquakeaffected<br />
suburb need beauty in<br />
their lives and the chance to feel<br />

“We believe our school is a<br />
POPULAR: Deputy principal Helen Parata says the Pod Oasis<br />
has completely transformed Rawhiti School.<br />
SCHOOLS<br />
symbol of the regeneration in<br />

The school was created<br />
through a three-way merger of<br />
North New Brighton, Freeville<br />
and Central New Brighton<br />
primary schools after the earthquakes.<br />
PEGASUS POST<br />
Rawhiti School deputy principal<br />
Helen Parata said they were<br />
“absolutely delighted” with winning<br />
the garden.<br />
Mrs Parata had nothing but<br />
praise for the Pod Oasis. “It’s<br />
completely transformed the<br />
area,” she said.<br />
With how big the garden is,<br />
Mrs Parata said it looks like it<br />
has always been there.<br />
“The Pod Oasis garden has<br />

children to visit.’’<br />

Year 12 Geography Trip<br />
our Year 12 geography trip this year was a little different to past years as we went on<br />
a camp to Mt hutt. The focus of the camp was to collect primary research data for the<br />
2.5 research assessment on the interaction between altitude and natural elements<br />
(climate, soil, vegetation) on Mt hutt. We visited three research locations at different<br />
altitude and students were in charge of planning and carrying out their research. They<br />
were able to use equipment geographers use in the field thanks to the geography<br />
Department at the university of canterbury who loaned us the equipment.<br />
We stayed at Mt hutt retreat, which offered us a wide range of exciting activities to<br />
participate in. Students were able to take part in abseiling, archery, air rifles, a low ropes<br />
course and a camp fire, where we roasted marshmallows. We also spent some time in<br />
Methven, exploring the township, going out for dinner and even having a golf lesson!<br />
We would like to thank the Make it happen charitable Trust who paid for a number of<br />
students to attend the camp, uncle Dom's Methven for the incredible dinner they put<br />
on for us and Barbara and Barry Wackwitz who gave up their time to support the camp.<br />
it is great to have such strong support from the wider community.<br />

Astronomy Conference<br />
In May I attended a weekend Conference in Dunedin on Astronomy. It was held at the<br />
Otago Museum. There were 10 Secondary students from around New Zealand that<br />
attended and a range of other students from the University.<br />
My time in Dunedin for the RASNZ Conference <strong>2017</strong> was an experience that I honestly<br />
believe changed my perceptions on Astronomy forever. I found the whole experience<br />
of listening to all of the Astronomers sharing their research with us, was absolutely<br />
incredible. Also being able to get the chance to talk with many of the professional<br />
Astronomers at the conference, hearing their stories and learning everything they<br />
know, was captivating in itself. Joss Bland-Hawthorn is a good example of this, and in<br />
my opinion, he’s an absolutely fascinating person. Not only did I find his talk on Near<br />
Field Cosmology absolutely incredible to listen to (it was actually my favourite talk out<br />
of everyone else’s), but his stories that he shared with me about his path through his<br />
Astronomy carrier, and the amount of love, passion and enthusiasm he brings to his<br />
work, is truly inspiring. The amount of effort he has contributed to the science, is just<br />
astounding. To this day, I still can’t believe that I have talked with one of Australia’s<br />
leading Astronomers! I felt privileged to be able to not only just see him, but talk to him<br />
too, and be able to learn from this incredible person. I’ve found myself realising how<br />
much I’ve enjoyed talking to all of these amazing people,<br />
and how much of an inspiration they all are to me. They are<br />
the sole reason why I want to pursue my dream of becoming<br />
an Astronomer, and I’m not going to let anyone else tell me<br />
otherwise. Astronomy is an amazing science, and my love for<br />
it has only gained traction after being given the opportunity<br />
to attend the RASNZ Conference through the SWAPA scheme.<br />
I thank everyone for making this possible for me.<br />

Year 12 and 13 Outdoor Education<br />
over Queen’s Birthday weekend, the Year<br />
12 and 13 outdoor education students<br />
tramped the St James Walkway. Building up<br />
to the tramp the students had completed a<br />
tramp up and down Mt’s grey, richardson,<br />
oxford and herbert. The St James Walkway is<br />
situated in the lewis Pass and the students<br />
found it exceptionally challenging given the<br />
sheer endurance needed to persevere each<br />
day. The Walkway is well signposted and<br />
clearly distinguishable in any weather; this is fortunate as two days in we experienced<br />
snow flurries which eventually gave way to just under a foot of snow. The walkway is<br />
67km long, and the students tented each night except one, when we stayed at anne<br />
hut due to the weather. getting up early so we could get a good start was a key to us<br />
having a successful day. We started the tramp at the lewis Pass end and the first day<br />
tramped to ada Pass hut. on Saturday we walked 25.5km to anne hut. We set up our<br />
tents and cooked our dinner on gas cookers, and had fascinating conversations with<br />
other trampers in the hut. Day three we had time to spend practising our navigational<br />
skills, exploring the area, and selecting appropriate campsites in the snow. We also met<br />
robyn and Trevor who became honorary camp parents. They journeyed with us for the<br />
rest of the tramp, giving counsel, advice and support, carrying packs and keeping our<br />
spirits high with their humour. on day four we left early in the morning and travelled to<br />
Boyle Flat hut. The final day was a swift walk out to Boyle Village and then home. Thank<br />
you to Mrs Dench, Mr Marshall and Mr russell for accompanying us and keeping us safe<br />
- you’re amazing.<br />
Here’s what some students discovered whilst on the tramp:<br />
alyssa: Plastic bag socks don’t work for very long in the snow.<br />
connor: The stars were a highlight. Dallas falling on our tent and squishing it was a low light!<br />
lily: The scenery was the most beautiful I’ve seen, especially the wild horses.<br />
cassidy: It definitely pushed me out of my comfort zone – each day I thought I wouldn’t make<br />
it so I was proud at the end of the day when I pushed through.<br />
Miu: Sleeping outside for the first time made me frozen. And I didn’t love it but it was a good<br />
experience.<br />
Tarryn: Very physically challenging experience. Next time wear boots that have been worn in!<br />
The Kakahu presentation<br />
The whānau of former teacher Ngawati heremaia presented Mairehau high School with<br />
a taonga (gift) in the form of a kākahu (cloak). it is the hope of Ngawati’s whanau that<br />
this cloak is worn by generations of young people from Mairehau high School, creating<br />
connections through the stories the cloak will carry. over the kākahu’s lifetime, it will<br />
absorb the mana (prestige) first of Ngawati and subsequently of every wearer and every<br />
event it is associated with in the future.<br />
The kākahu is woven from a special harakeke (flax) that makes up every part of it. This<br />
taonga comes from both the Tai Tokerau (Northland) and Ōtautahi (christchurch),<br />
representing Ngawati’s whakapapa (genealogy) in Ngāpuhi and his connection to the<br />
South island where he lived with his whānau.<br />
ana Maria heremaia (daughter) presented the kākahu to Mairehau high School at a<br />
full school assembly held on 23rd June <strong>2017</strong>. ana provided a narrative to students<br />
and staff on the journey<br />
she took in making<br />
this very special<br />
taonga. ana placed<br />
the kākahu carefully<br />
on the shoulders of<br />
Mairehau high School<br />
chief executive Shilah<br />
Norman, who was our<br />
first student to wear the<br />
cloak.<br />
i take this opportunity to<br />
acknowledge and thank<br />
the heremaia whānau<br />
for the cloak.<br />
“Tūngia te ururua, kia<br />
tupu whkaritorito te<br />

Year 11 Sports Ambassadors Workshop<br />
on Monday 19th June, three Year 11 students went along to a Young Sports<br />
ambassadors workshop, hosted by gemma Mccaw. This was an exciting opportunity<br />
for our young leaders to hear first hand what it takes to be successful and committed to<br />
their sport.<br />
Our students gave insightful reviews about what they learnt and their take home<br />
messages from the session with Gemma.<br />
I learnt that only you can make things happen in your life and you have to balance school,<br />
family, and sports - La Bella Currin-Waru.<br />
I learnt that we can all achieve our goals if we all work hard, and we as people can better<br />
ourselves from our own experiences - Sebastian Anae-Ah Sue.<br />
Listening to Gemma, I’ve learnt that failing is never<br />
a bad thing because you know what to do next<br />
time and how to try harder the next time you give<br />
it a go - Darrell Suaesi Faamau.<br />
The triple olympian was hugely inspiring<br />
and provided powerful wisdom and tools for<br />
students to use while aiming high and working<br />
towards achieving their sporting and academic<br />
goals.<br />

Supporting your bowel and digestive<br />
function helps prevent disease<br />
It is most important to keep the<br />
whole digestive and elimination<br />
systems of the body working efficiently.<br />
Otherwise toxins that have not been<br />
eliminated set the stage for disease.<br />
Many diseases have been linked with<br />
micro-organisms (virus) or a bacterial<br />
component. Generally these microorganisms<br />
or bacteria can only survive<br />
due to the fact that the environment<br />
they are in is suitable for their survival.<br />
Non eliminated toxins are probably<br />
one of the main causative factors for<br />
their survival. We know that when the<br />
digestive system and bowel function<br />
are poor we have many more health<br />
problems. These include arthritis, digestive<br />
problems like reflux and stomach pain,<br />
bladder infections, chronic skin conditions<br />
such as eczema, psoriasis and rashes, poor<br />
eyesight, pain and inflammation, tumors<br />
and a weakened immune system just to<br />
name a few.<br />
Nature’s Sunshine LBS II contains a<br />
highly effective blend of natural herbs to<br />
support the whole digestive system and it<br />
is especially effective at cleansing the lower<br />
bowel and intestinal tract. It is commonly<br />
used for arthritis, constipation, diarrhea,<br />
digestive problems, dry stool, fever, colds<br />
and influenza, flatulence, gallstones, gout,<br />
skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis,<br />
urinary infections, liver dysfunction,<br />
Candida, weakened immune function and<br />
for people who want to keep their health as<br />
good as possible.<br />
The herbs in LBS II help stimulate the<br />
production of digestive fluids and bile<br />
for efficient digestion. This alone may<br />
help prevent many diseases as a properly<br />
working digestive system will itself<br />
neutralise many disease causing organisms<br />
before they have a chance to cause any<br />
problems. LBS II also stimulates peristaltic<br />
action of the colon effectively cleansing<br />
the colon of any accumulated build-ups of<br />
waste material. It also relaxes abdominal<br />
cramping and spasms, enhances liver<br />
function, purifies the blood, neutralizes<br />
acidic conditions, helps destroy intestinal<br />
parasites and worms, and fights infection.<br />
Keeping your digestive system and<br />
bowels functioning efficiently is definitely<br />
an important step in obtaining and<br />
maintaining good long term health.<br />

Osteoporosis is a serious condition<br />
...but research shows it can be reversed!<br />
Osteoporosis is not taken as a serious<br />
condition by most people! Most people<br />
don’t realise they have osteoporosis until<br />
a fracture happens, as there are usually<br />
no signs or symptoms. Fractures can<br />
commonly be debilitating with chronic<br />
pain and can lead to early mortality.<br />
Fractures kill more women than all<br />
gynaecological cancers put together and<br />
one in six women taken to hospital with<br />
a hip fracture, will not come out alive and<br />
men fare even worse. Around one in three<br />
women and one in twelve men are affected<br />
with osteoporosis.<br />
The most common osteoporotic fractures<br />
are of the wrist, spine, shoulder and hip.<br />
Vertebral collapse is a compression fracture<br />
and causes back pain often with shooting<br />
pains due to compression of the nerves.<br />
Multiple vertebral fractures lead to a<br />
stooped posture, loss of height and chronic<br />
pain with reduced mobility. Hip fractures,<br />
in particular, usually require prompt<br />
surgery, as there is a serious risk associated<br />
with it of deep vein thrombosis and<br />
pulmonary embolism leading to increased<br />
mortality.<br />
Osteoporosis literally means “bones with<br />
holes”. It occurs when bones lose minerals<br />
such as calcium more quickly than the<br />
body can replace them. Although calcium<br />
is essential for bone health other minerals<br />
like magnesium, zinc and trace minerals<br />
like silica, boron, manganese, copper are<br />
essential also. Vitamin’s D3 and K2 have<br />
been shown to be essential in a bone<br />
support program.<br />
A less well known mineral strontium,<br />
that is naturally found in your bones<br />
has been researched and found in<br />
four landmark studies to actually<br />
reverse bone loss when sufficient other<br />
nutrients are present. One study of 1,649<br />
postmenopausal women with osteoporosis<br />
who had had at least one fracture were<br />
divided into two groups. Both groups<br />
took vitamin D and calcium supplements.<br />
One group were also given 680mg/day<br />
of strontium. After the three year study<br />
the strontium group showed an unheard<br />
of average bone growth of 8.1%. This<br />
study shows that osteoporosis can not<br />
only be halted but may even be reversed<br />
and without the side effects of common<br />
osteoporosis drugs.<br />
Further information on how to<br />
support your bone density and overall<br />
health is available from the natural<br />
health specialists at Marshall’s Health<br />
& Natural Therapy, 110 Seaview Road,<br />

BREAKTHROUGH AGAINST OSTEOPOROSIS<br />
Osteoporosis, the weakening of the bone is a serious health threat<br />
that often leads to severe pain, fractures & early mortality. Research<br />
has found the bones can be re-mineralised & strengthened when<br />
the required nutrients are present. Minerals calcium, magnesium &<br />
vitamins D3 & K2 are essential but are not enough in many cases.<br />
A missing link appears to be the mineral strontium.<br />
Research shows strontium to positively affect bone density.<br />
- Supports strong healthy bones, teeth & nails<br />
- Is a naturally occurring mineral often lacking in the<br />
modern diet<br />
- Found in healthy bones & teeth but lacking in people<br />
with osteoporosis<br />

Journey to a smile<br />
continued...<br />
“Over the last few years Smile Concepts has<br />
helped my extreme fear of the dentist, treating<br />
me as a person not a dental guinea pig.”<br />
Visiting the dentist can be a daunting proposition for many<br />
people, who fear they may have to endure a painful process<br />
when having their teeth treated. That’s where the caring team<br />
of experienced dentists team at Smile Concepts can help, by<br />
providing painless treatment. Plus, the personal touch they<br />
offer by taking time to go over all the treatment options and<br />
associated costs means those who fear a dental surgery will be<br />
immediately put at ease.<br />
One patient who is very happy with their service tells her<br />
story…<br />
“My name is Jacinta. I am a 27-year-old wife and mum from<br />
Christchurch. I have enamel hypoplasia, which is a lack in<br />
enamel formation. In most cases, the enamel on people’s teeth is<br />
low or thin, but I have no enamel on all my teeth, resulting in a<br />
dark-yellow colouring.<br />
After a life of struggling with everything from bullying to<br />
failed ‘fixes’, I decided to once again pursue my smile dreams.<br />
After ringing around Christchurch dentists, Smile Concepts was<br />
the first ‘off the bat’ to know about hypoplasia. Natalie happily<br />
booked me in for a consultation.<br />
Over the last few years Smile Concepts has helped my<br />
extreme fear of the dentist, treating me as a person not a dental<br />
guinea pig. Natalie always did what she knew would work<br />
instead of trying things that might.<br />
In January <strong>2017</strong> I contacted Dr Dee from Vogue Dental<br />
Studios in Melbourne. He is kindly donating his time, skills<br />
and expertise to give me my dream smile. Financially, this is<br />
something I would have never been able to do without Dr Dee.<br />
And Natalie has been fabulous in helping prepping me for my<br />
trip to Australia with photos, bite guards, moulds and cleaning”.<br />
On June 2, Jacinta had the opportunity to tell her story on<br />
Seven Sharp, just one week before she flew to Melbourne to<br />
begin her journey. Before she left, Jacinta had her final hygienist<br />
clean at Smile Concepts where the team wished her well in<br />
Melbourne, and now look forward to helping her maintain her<br />
beautiful new smile in the near future.<br />
Smile Concepts is proud to help patients like<br />
Jacinta with any dental problems they may have.<br />
Their knowledgeable staff members use safe and<br />
proven procedures, the latest technology, materials<br />
and philosophies to enhance your teeth and smile.<br />

HOME & HEATING<br />
Choosing the right heat<br />
pump for your home<br />
Whether it be a new build, or a retrofit,<br />
most homes include at least one heat pump,<br />
if not a whole heating solution. They can<br />
provide cheap, clean heat and are much more<br />
convenient than a log burner as you just need<br />
to press a button. But how do you decide<br />
what is best? Choosing the right sized heat<br />
pump is key to ensuring optimum comfort<br />
levels. Every situation varies and it is therefore<br />
important to get professional advice from heat<br />
pump experts.<br />
The range varies from wall mounted high<br />
walls, floor mounted systems, multi systems,<br />
ceiling cassettes, right through to ducted<br />
central heating systems allowing you to have a<br />
very discreet way of heating your whole home<br />
to a constant temperature throughout.<br />
Firstly, you must select a heat pump that<br />
is suitable for the size of the space you wish<br />
to heat. Usually a site visit is the best way to<br />
ascertain this. Not only is the size of the area<br />
taken into consideration but also, insulation,<br />
building orientation, windows and ceiling<br />
space. There are a wide range of heat pumps<br />
available with different heating outputs so it<br />
is important to select the correct size for your<br />
requirements that will handle the job but not<br />
be unnecessarily overpowered.<br />
Secondly, the location of your heat pump<br />
is also extremely important. The cheapest<br />
installation is a back to back where the outdoor<br />
unit is positioned directly behind the indoor<br />
unit however this is not necessarily always<br />
the best option. It is vital that the indoor<br />
unit is positioned in a place that will not be<br />
constantly blowing on you. Also important, is<br />
the location of the outdoor unit. Most people<br />
do not want their outdoor unit sitting directly<br />
in their outdoor entertaining area or right<br />
outside their bedroom window.<br />
Choose a brand you can trust. Many brands<br />
have come and gone over the years but there<br />
are a number of manufacturers who provide<br />
reputable and reliable products. All brands<br />
vary in their energy efficiency, quietness of<br />
systems and price, so it depends on your<br />
application as to which will be most suitable.<br />
Major brands such as Panasonic, Fujitsu,<br />
Mitsubishi, Daikin, Toshiba and Hitachi are<br />
all reliable brands backed up by good technical<br />
after sales service.<br />
Ensure your heat pump is installed by an<br />
accredited installer. This will not only ensure<br />
correct installation of your heat pump, but<br />
also validate the manufacturers warranty.<br />
Other things to consider when choosing a<br />
heat pump are time clocks, ease of use of the<br />
remote controllers, air filtration and also wifi<br />
capabilities.<br />
Heating is a major investment in your home<br />
and it is vital to get the right advice.<br />
Enviro Master Ltd specialise in the supply,<br />
installation and servicing of all major brands<br />
of heat pumps. Our salesmen are engineers<br />
ensuring you get quality, unbiased advice as<br />
to which system will suit your application<br />
the best. Enviro Master Ltd offer a free, no<br />
obligation quote and will come to your home<br />

The facts about<br />
home ventilation<br />
Balanced Pressure vs Positive Pressure<br />
Under the New Zealand Building Code,<br />
all buildings, including residential, need to<br />
be suitably ventilated, either with opening<br />
windows or forced ventilation. Clause G4.1<br />
states: “The objective of this provision is<br />
to safeguard people from illness or loss of<br />
amenity due to lack of fresh air.” There are<br />
many benefits to forced, or mechanical,<br />
ventilation over opening windows, including<br />
warmth, security, reduction of outside noises<br />
and reduction of condensation.<br />
Traditional domestic ventilation systems<br />
are ‘positive pressure’. They bring air in from<br />
outside via the roof space and force the stale air<br />
out through gaps around windows and doors.<br />
The incoming air from these<br />
systems has to be heated or<br />
cooled to keep the house warm<br />
in winter or cool in summer.<br />
The Smooth-Air HEX390 is<br />
a ‘balanced pressure’ system. It<br />
extracts air from the house and<br />
at the same time brings in fresh<br />
air. These two streams of air<br />
pass through a heat exchanger,<br />
which warms incoming air in<br />
winter and cools in summer if<br />
air conditioning is being used.<br />
This means that up to 80% of<br />
the energy which would be<br />
wasted using a traditional positive pressure<br />
system is recovered, resulting in significant<br />
energy savings and therefore lower heating or<br />
cooling costs.<br />
Until recently, balanced pressure ventilation<br />
systems have been considerably more<br />
expensive than traditional positive pressure<br />
systems. However, with Smooth-Air’s unique<br />
manufacturing capabilities, a HEX390<br />
balanced pressure system can be installed for<br />
a similar price as a traditional positive pressure<br />
system.<br />

Trees and Power Lines<br />
The responsibilities of tree owners and Orion under the<br />
Electricity (Hazards from Trees) Regulations 2003<br />
Orion New Zealand owns and operates the electricity distribution network in central<br />
Canterbury between the Waimakariri and Rakaia rivers and from the Canterbury coast<br />
to Arthur’s Pass. Trees touching power lines account for 10-20% of all unplanned power<br />
outages on our network. If you see a tree touching a power line, or any other hazardous<br />
tree condition, please contact us immediately on 03 363 9898 or 0800 363 9898.<br />
This advertisement provides a general notice of the Electricity (Hazards from Trees)<br />
Regulations 2003 and the dangers of trees near power lines. More detail on these issues<br />
can be found on our website www.oriongroup.co.nz or by phoning us on 03 363 9898.<br />
The Electricity (Hazards from Trees) Regulations 2003<br />
The regulations set out the responsibilities of electricity line companies and tree owners.<br />
The purpose of the regulations is to protect the safety of the public and help to ensure a<br />
secure supply of electricity. The regulations:<br />
• define safe separation distances between trees and power lines<br />
• specifies who is responsible for ensuring clearances are maintained<br />
• places potential liability on the tree owner if any damage or accident occurs due to<br />
trees touching power lines. (Note that the word “trees” includes all types of vegetation,<br />
including shrubs, hedges and climbing vines.)<br />
What are the dangers?<br />
Trees near power lines need to be trimmed or removed for the following reasons:<br />
• children like to climb trees and when trees are close to power lines there is a risk of<br />
serious injury or death<br />
• in severe weather conditions, vegetation can become electrically “live” and may<br />
electrocute anyone or anything that touches it<br />
• while a tree may not touch a power line in fine weather, branches can bend or break in<br />
wind or snow storms, causing serious damage and possibly prolonged power outages<br />
• in dry conditions, electrical sparking caused by branches or windblown debris on lines<br />
may cause fires.<br />
Minimum distances required between trees and power lines<br />
The minimum distances that must be maintained between trees and power lines, defined in<br />
the regulations, are outlined in the diagram to the right. A common sense approach, by tree<br />
owners trimming trees early, will generally prevent trees touching power lines.<br />
To maintain a safe distance from power lines some trees require cutting or trimming<br />
more frequently than other trees, but if it is determined that cutting or trimming cannot<br />
satisfactorily meet the requirement then removing the tree is recommended. Other<br />
situations may require trees to be felled because they are at a distance that is considered<br />
to be a hazard due to falling during storms or being diseased.<br />
Orion’s tree management programme<br />
Orion’s tree management programme is largely governed by the Electricity (Hazards from<br />
Trees) Regulations 2003. Our programme involves education, monitoring and the cut/trim<br />
or removal of trees that threaten to come into contact with power lines. Through this<br />
programme we work with tree owners to minimise the risk of their trees touching power lines.<br />
We currently undertake periodic cutting or trimming of vegetation within the notice zone.<br />
The intent of this cutting or trimming is to support safety and reduce the risk of power<br />
outages. This periodic cutting or trimming by us does not remove the tree owner’s<br />
responsibilities and in the case of fast growing species may not be sufficient to ensure<br />
that trees remain outside of the growth limit zone. You will be notified prior to any periodic<br />
trimming being carried out and the work will be completed by arborists carrying Orion<br />
identification.<br />
If Orion becomes aware of a tree which is within the ‘Notice zone’ (see Tree “A” in the diagram<br />
below) then we are required to issue the tree owner with a Hazard Warning notice. For trees<br />
within the ‘Growth limit zone’ (see Tree “B” in the diagram below) we are required to issue the<br />
tree owner with a Cut or Trim notice.<br />
What is a hazard warning notice?<br />
If a tree is within the “Notice zone” (see Tree “A” in the diagram), we are required to issue a<br />
hazard warning notice to the tree owner.<br />

Note:<br />
V = Volts; kV = kilo Volts ie 1,000 Volts<br />
1) These distances are from the power line, not the power pole<br />
2) These distances are a minimum and apply in all conditions including high wind or snow<br />
3) In most instances the power lines that go to a house or building are low voltage power<br />
lines. Power lines that go down a street may be low or high voltage.<br />
Trimming trees near power lines<br />
Trimming trees near power lines can be extremely hazardous and the dangers should not<br />
be underestimated. Contact with a power line can cause:<br />
• injury or death to yourself, family or passers by<br />
• injury or death to livestock<br />
• damage to property and other trees<br />
• damage to electrical appliances<br />
• damage to power supply facilities<br />
• damage to third parties.<br />
We recognise that the public is not always experienced in tree trimming, so we are happy<br />
to advise you on this. We can arrange for trees near power lines to be trimmed at your<br />
cost. If, however, you prefer to arrange your own tree trimming, we recommend you hire<br />
professionals with the necessary expertise and safety procedures to competently carry out<br />
this work.<br />
If you or someone working for you intends to work within 4 metres of power lines, a close<br />
approach consent is required from Orion before you start. As a tree owner you may be liable<br />
for any damage caused by carrying out trimming or felling of trees.<br />
A hazard warning notice alerts the tree owner that the tree has encroached the notice zone<br />
and that if it encroaches the “Growth limit zone” (see Tree “B” in the diagram) a cut or trim<br />
notice may be immediately given to the tree owner (see above).<br />
The growth limit zone is the area around a power line which trees must not encroach even<br />
in windy or snow conditions. The notice zone is a distance one metre beyond the growth<br />
limit zone.<br />
What is a cut or trim notice?<br />
If we become aware that a tree has encroached on the “Growth limit zone”, we will give<br />
notice in writing to the tree owner that the tree must be cut or timed to maintain the<br />
distances prescribed in the regulations, and the timeframes for action.<br />
If no action is taken Orion may then trim the tree and seek to recover costs.<br />
Who pays for the cut or trim?<br />
Orion is responsible for the first cut of trees near power lines, where the first cut is on a<br />
property basis, not owner basis. We have already met this obligation by completing a first cut<br />
of vegetation on all our lines.<br />
The tree owner will need to organise and pay for any subsequent and future cuts or trims.<br />
We are happy to provide tree owners with a list of approved arborists who can carry out this<br />
work, and also advise the best solution given the circumstances.<br />
What fines can be imposed?<br />
A tree owner commits an offence where a cut or trim notice is given, and without reasonable<br />
excuse, the tree owner fails to have the tree cut or trimmed and/or fails to advise us of the<br />
time and location of the cut or trim.<br />
A person who commits such an offence is liable on summary conviction to a fine not<br />
exceeding $10,000. If the offence continues, that person is also liable for a further fine of<br />
not more than $500 for every day or part day during which the offence continues.<br />
Contact us if in any doubt about your tree<br />
We aim to work with tree owners to ensure safety is maintained and power outages are<br />
minimised. We will actively work with tree owners to see trees are trimmed or cut before<br />
regulatory powers are applied. However, as we wish to ensure the safety and security of the<br />
public, we will use the regulations where necessary.<br />
Please contact us or an approved Orion tree trimming contractor to help with your trees,<br />
or to discuss your options.<br />
