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 />

FLAME FILES<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 />

the area more visible through<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 />

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 />

primary schools after the earthquakes.<br />

Rawhiti School deputy principal<br />

Helen Parata said they were<br />

“absolutely delighted” with winning<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 />

tupu o te harakeke.”<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 />

SENIOR LIVING<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 />

400V/230V (low voltage) 1.5 metres 0.5 metres<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 />
