RSA claims<br />

council<br />

wasted<br />

$<strong>25</strong>,000<br />

• By Gabrielle Stuart<br />

CONTROVERSIAL $<strong>25</strong>,000<br />

glass graffiti protection panels<br />

around the New Brighton War<br />

Memorial may be removed,<br />

sparking calls they have been a<br />

waste of money.<br />

The panels<br />

were installed<br />

around the<br />

memorial last<br />

month, but were<br />

criticised by the<br />

New Brighton<br />

RSA and by<br />

Kim Money<br />

people in the<br />

community who<br />

said they were<br />

“horribly ugly”.<br />

The Coastal-Burwood<br />

Community Board is now<br />

considering taking them down<br />

and using lighting, security<br />

cameras and more open<br />

landscaping to discourage<br />

vandalism instead.<br />

Board chairwoman Kim<br />

Money has met with New<br />

Brighton RSA representatives to<br />

discuss the idea.<br />

Ms Money said the options<br />

LOOKING AHEAD: The graffiti protection panels around the New Brighton War Memorial may be removed, sparking New Brighton<br />

RSA executive manager Garry House to say they have been a waste of money.<br />

PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER<br />

included removing the low walls<br />

in the area to open it to the<br />

street, making it less attractive to<br />

vandals.<br />

But Ms Money said there was<br />

no funding currently set aside for<br />

the work, and having it approved<br />

could take months.<br />

New Brighton RSA executive<br />

manager Garry House said that<br />

was not good enough.<br />

He said the city council had<br />

wasted money on the panels<br />

without properly consulting the<br />

community.<br />

“If you’ve blown the money on<br />

doing something stupid, that’s<br />

no excuse. You’ve just got to find<br />

the money somewhere else,” he<br />

said.<br />

The memorial was vandalised<br />

in 2015, and he said the idea<br />

of protective panels had been<br />

briefly mentioned then, but there<br />

had been no discussion of it<br />

since.<br />

“I understand the council was<br />

trying to do the right thing by<br />

protecting the cenotaph, so I<br />

applaud them for that, but they<br />

went about it very badly,” he said.<br />

He said the association would<br />

be happy to see the panels left up<br />

as a temporary measure, but only<br />

for a few months.<br />

But Ms Money said the<br />

plan was likely to take some time<br />

to approve, as it would need<br />

to be put to both city council<br />

staff and Development<br />

council subsidiary responsible<br />

Richmond garden expands<br />

RICHMOND’S GREEN thumbs<br />

have been given a space to grow<br />

their community garden.<br />

The Richmond Community<br />

Garden Group has been given<br />

a two year lease to develop just<br />

under half a hectare of red zone<br />

property in front of Avebury<br />

House on the corner of Evelyn<br />

Couzins Ave and River Rd.<br />

Land Information New Zealand<br />

leased the group the land<br />

for $1 after it had twice outgrown<br />

its previous space.<br />

It is the biggest piece of land<br />

LINZ has ever leased to a community<br />

group.<br />

The group’s founding member<br />

Hayley Guglietta said, since<br />

2015, it has had a small garden<br />

beside Avebury Park.<br />

“But we had too many people<br />

volunteering – we just ran out of<br />

space and things to do,” she said.<br />

After approaching Regenerate<br />

Christchurch and being told to<br />

go to LINZ, the group had to<br />

prove they were “providing a<br />

space for the community” before<br />

being given the lease.<br />

But with nearby schools,<br />

pre-schools and families already<br />

using the garden, it was not a<br />

hard sell.<br />

So now the group is busy planning<br />

its new space, which will be<br />

PLANS: The Richmond Community Garden Group has worked<br />

with the city council on designs. ​<br />

the first of its kind in the city.<br />

Mrs Guglietta said it’s not just<br />

about providing a community<br />

garden anymore.<br />

“We want to develop an area<br />

for people to come, bring their<br />

kids, have a picnic, learn something<br />

about gardening and be<br />

able to run around,” she said.<br />

The new space will feature<br />

above ground garden beds, fruit<br />

trees, a natural playground, picnic<br />

area and a nature and education<br />

focused community space.<br />

Initial designs also show a<br />

kayak rental shed for the adjacent<br />

Avon River, beehives and<br />

a lecture theatre with movable<br />

seats.<br />

The group has been working<br />

with a landscape architect provided<br />

by the city council.<br />

And Mrs Guglietta said it’s<br />

proud to have achieved all of this<br />

with very little funding.<br />

“We’ve done all of this with a<br />

small grant from the city council’s<br />

strengthening communities<br />

fund and a small win from Z<br />

Energy’s Good in the Hood.<br />

But aside from that, it’s all been<br />

donations and pure man-power,”<br />

she said.<br />

Currently 15 volunteers work<br />

in the garden but members of the<br />

public are more than welcome<br />

to join.<br />

Part of the project will include<br />

converting the Avebury House<br />

garden into a medicinal herb and<br />

cut flower area.<br />

“Programmes at Avebury<br />

House will be able to use the<br />

garden, go out there and cut<br />

flowers … but we’re looking for<br />

someone who knows about cut<br />

flower gardens at the moment,”<br />

Mrs Guglietta said.<br />

It is also hosting a wicker<br />

weaving session as part of the<br />

development on August 19 at<br />

Avebury House.<br />

150 people<br />

comment on<br />

beachside<br />

playground<br />

PUBLIC consultation on New<br />

Brighton’s new $8 million<br />

beachside playground closed<br />

on Sunday, with more than 150<br />

people commenting on the plans.<br />

Work on upgrading the whale<br />

pool playground is due to begin<br />

next month, following a monthlong<br />

feedback process on the concept<br />

design, run by Development<br />

Christchurch Ltd.<br />

More than 150 people commented<br />

on the Select Evolution<br />

design. Seating, shading, grassed<br />

areas, and accessibility were key<br />

themes of many of those.<br />

DCL chief executive Rob Hall<br />

said the feedback would allow<br />

it to build the best playground<br />

possible.<br />

“The beachside playground will<br />

be a real drawcard for Christchurch<br />

residents and visitors alike,<br />

contributing strongly to the revitalisation<br />

of New Brighton.”<br />

The new playground will be<br />

built to the south of the existing<br />

whale pool play area, which will<br />

enable a larger play area and better<br />

connectivity to the business<br />

centre. It is on track to open this<br />

summer.<br />

Rotary helps teacher succeed on water<br />

Ferrymead Rotarians had a<br />

strong inkling they were on<br />

to a good thing when Ryan<br />

Pearce approached them for<br />

support to get to the waka<br />

ama (outrigger canoeing)<br />

world championships. Club<br />

member Barbara Crooks<br />

writes about how it worked<br />

out<br />

THE 34-year-old South<br />

Brighton School teacher<br />

was part of a para-six which<br />

paddled to a silver medal at the<br />

World Distance Waka Ama<br />

Championships in Tahiti a<br />

couple of weeks ago.<br />

Pearce, who has used a brace<br />

on his right leg since spinal<br />

surgery eight years ago, had been<br />

paddling for just 12 months<br />

before making the New Zealand<br />

team.<br />

To get to Tahiti he – and each<br />

of his fellow paddlers –had to<br />

raise $4000 in three months<br />

since the team was named in<br />

March.<br />

His personal and professional<br />

attributes impressed Ferrymead<br />

Rotary members so much they<br />

DETERMINED: Ryan Pearce (front) won a silver medal at the World Distance Waka Ama<br />

Championships in Tahiti. ​<br />

readily agreed. And while they<br />

thought their contribution<br />

modest, Ryan pointed out that<br />

they had paid his Christchurch<br />

to Auckland airfare – without<br />

which he wouldn’t have made<br />

the plane to Tahiti.<br />

After his selection was<br />

confirmed in March, he had to<br />

fund a medical examination, and<br />

flights, food and accommodation<br />

for three training camps (in<br />

Napier, Auckland and Tauranga)<br />

and the world champs in Tahiti.<br />

As he says, there are no free<br />

rides for truly amateur sports in<br />

New Zealand.<br />

His waka success further<br />

reflected Pearce’s resolve since<br />

complications with a 2009<br />

operation to remove a varicose<br />

vein on his spinal cord left him<br />

with no feeling from the waist<br />

down. A month later, thanks<br />

to his intensive rehabilitation<br />

efforts, he was walking with the<br />

help of a stick on his wedding<br />

day.<br />

Two years later, the remnant<br />

of the vein forced another<br />

operation, six weeks in hospital,<br />

and back to work on physio in<br />

a wheelchair. The next year,<br />

he tackled the 2.8km harbour<br />

crossing swim in Auckland,<br />

dragging himself across almost<br />

entirely with his arms. He has<br />

done four more distance swims<br />

since.<br />

But he believes he trained<br />

harder for waka than his swims<br />

because he didn’t want to let his<br />

mates down. He’s also quick to<br />

point out that, while one of the<br />

seven paddlers did not get a start<br />

in Tahiti, the performance was<br />

very much a team effort.<br />

Pearce sees “paddling in<br />

some capacity” as very much a<br />

part of his immediate sporting<br />

future. He believes he’s best<br />

suited to longer distances, which<br />

opens the way for him to bring<br />

his swimming, paddling and<br />

perhaps other endurance talents<br />

together.<br />

QE II track unlikely to stay<br />

• By Gabrielle Stuart<br />

AN APPEAL to save the<br />

community-built QE II<br />

Park fitness trail has failed<br />

– but campaigners fighting<br />

for it are not giving up yet.<br />

The fitness trail currently<br />

runs around the park, with<br />

17 fitness stations set up<br />

around the 2km track.<br />

But about half the track<br />

is set to be removed when<br />

Shirley Boys and Avonside<br />

Girls’ high schools are built there.<br />

The Coastal-Burwood Community<br />

Board wrote to the<br />

Ministry of Education last week<br />

asking it to reconsider its decision<br />

to remove that portion of the fitness<br />

trail.<br />

But the ministry has refused to<br />

Dan<br />

O’Sullivan<br />

reconsider.<br />

Ministry education infrastructure<br />

service deputy head Rob<br />

Giller said keeping the trail<br />

would “compromise the<br />

safety and security of the<br />

school”.<br />

“That’s because if public<br />

access was granted over the<br />

schools’ land, its boards of<br />

trustees would not be able<br />

to trespass members of the<br />

public causing menace,” he<br />

said.<br />

He said the school site had<br />

already been reduced to meet<br />

city council requirements, and<br />

keeping the trail would reduce it<br />

further.<br />

Community board chairwoman<br />

Kim Money said she<br />

accepted that, and believed there<br />

was nothing more the board<br />

could do.<br />

She said she would now work<br />

with the city council to create<br />

a shorter loop off the school<br />

grounds.<br />

North New Brighton resident<br />

Dan O’Sullivan, who has been<br />

campaigning to save the trail,<br />

said that was not good enough.<br />

He said he would now look at<br />

organising a letter or petition<br />

from residents to keep it. “Of<br />

course there’s a way around it, it’s<br />

just they don’t want to,” he said.<br />

He believed keeping the trail<br />

would make the school more<br />

secure, as residents walking there<br />

on weekends or after hours could<br />

keep an eye out for vandalism<br />

or problems happening at the<br />

school.<br />

No decision on dairy<br />

NO DECISION has yet been<br />

made whether a dairy on Union<br />

St, South New Brighton, will be<br />

able to expand.<br />

Owner Christine Chen wants<br />

to expand the business by<br />

building on a section next to the<br />

dairy.<br />

Neighbours Brendon Moir<br />

and Patricia Claypoole objected<br />

to the plan because they believe<br />

the expansion does not comply<br />

with the city council’s resource<br />

consent requirements.<br />

A commissioner heard<br />

arguments for and against the<br />

expansion in May, and has yet to<br />

release a decision.<br />

issue, Pegasus Post has omitted<br />

to report Mr Moir and Ms Claypoole’s<br />

objection was because<br />

Our People<br />

Michelle Fuentes-Whittaker<br />

Brighton’s social conscience<br />

Social entrepreneur<br />

Michelle Fuentes-<br />

Whittaker’s latest<br />

venture is The Good<br />

Shop in Carnaby Lane,<br />

New Brighton. Sarla<br />

Donovan talked to<br />

her about the cafe,<br />

shop and hub for<br />

community education<br />

and workshops<br />

What’s the idea behind The<br />

Good Shop?<br />

To make living greener easier<br />

and more accessible. We tend<br />

to get overwhelmed and don’t<br />

know where to start, or feel like<br />

any small change won’t make a<br />

difference. We aim to shift this<br />

through having the shop, building<br />

a community of support and<br />

also education and workshops.<br />

What motivated you to set<br />

this up?<br />

It grew out of a combination<br />

of things. I’ve been involved in<br />

the social enterprise scene for<br />

a couple of years and when we<br />

had the big Kaikoura/Hurunui<br />

earthquake in November, I wanted<br />

to help the vulnerable small<br />

businesses. So I set up Alpine<br />

Pacific in a Box – a Christmas<br />

gift box full of artisan products<br />

made in these regions. I’ve<br />

always been a greenie so when I<br />

realised that all the artisan products<br />

were also naturally ethical<br />

and environmentally-friendly,<br />

I thought to extend the support<br />

to both the makers and the customer<br />

through a not-for-profit<br />

social enterprise.<br />

Is it a challenge to run an<br />

enterprise like this and make a<br />

living?<br />

Short answer is yes. We are<br />

only in the start-up phase and it<br />

takes a while to get the cash flow<br />

going. So we are mainly volunteers<br />

at this stage but are very<br />

committed to the initial pilot to<br />

see if it is viable going forward.<br />

We’ve got a lot of support from<br />

the local community but it also<br />

GREENER: Michelle Fuentes-Whittaker and chef Noelina Maruccio at The Good Shop on<br />

Carnaby Lane, which aims to make it easier to live a green lifestyle. PHOTO: GILBERT WEALLEANS<br />

needs to translate into financial<br />

sustainability. We do need some<br />

funding to help us through the<br />

start-up phase.<br />

Are you juggling family as<br />

well?<br />

We are all parents. Another<br />

string to the venture is to create<br />

the type of workplace you’ve<br />

always wanted that is flexible<br />

around family. So there are four<br />

of us that work part time to<br />

cover the Tuesday to Saturday<br />

week and the collective directorship.<br />

Though I’m finding that<br />

I’m working everyday being the<br />

business developer, communications<br />

and marketing, social<br />

media, managing director, ops<br />

manager, finance manager and<br />

admin! But for now, I’m loving it<br />

and once the systems are set up<br />

and we have more volunteers on<br />

board, it will be more sensible.<br />

Why did you decide to open<br />

in New Brighton?<br />

Three of us are locals. We love<br />

living here and are putting our<br />

hands up to contribute to the<br />

vibrant community. We have<br />

strong networks across greater<br />

Brighton and the east, which<br />

is vital to starting up a not-forprofit<br />

venture. We also have<br />

the support from Development<br />

Are you originally from<br />

Christchurch?<br />

Born and bred Cantabrian. I’ve<br />

lived elsewhere and travelled a<br />

lot but found myself returning<br />

home to start a family. As much<br />

as the earthquakes were horrible,<br />

I’ve seen the silver lining in the<br />

openness to new ideas and the<br />

strengthened communities.<br />

From doing earthquake recovery<br />

work with CERA to creating the<br />

river of flowers for the February<br />

22, 2011, earthquake anniversary,<br />

Places of Tranquillity in<br />

Manchester St, being involved in<br />

the beginning of the All Right?<br />

well-being campaign and developing<br />

the Well-being Game.<br />

Have you always been a socially<br />

aware kind of person?<br />

I’ve always been involved in<br />

volunteering and community<br />

from an early age. That continued<br />

through university and my<br />

first job as a community centre<br />

manager in Wellington. My<br />

career hasn’t been a linear typical<br />

journey but there is a very<br />

clear thread and commitment to<br />

social change and community<br />

well-being. The Good Shop is<br />

Orbiter Bus stops Innes Road<br />

an umbrella of Flourish Inc, a<br />

collective for happy people and<br />

a healthy planet. I pulled this<br />

together to bring my various<br />

initiatives, interests and fabulous<br />

collaborators under a clear vision<br />

and practice – enjoyable, innovative<br />

experiences that just happen<br />

to be good for you and good for<br />

the planet.<br />

There seems to be a real push<br />

back on plastic bags at the moment.<br />

Why do you think that<br />

is?<br />

Waste is a huge issue and<br />

plastic bags are a tangible item<br />

that we all use and it’s easy to<br />

see what damage they’re doing<br />

to our oceans and environment.<br />

Plastic has only really been<br />

around in everyday household<br />

products for the last 40 to 50<br />

years. Yet there has only recently<br />

been the realisation of the prolific<br />

impact. We don’t really know<br />

how long plastic takes to break<br />

down either. It’s commonly<br />

stated as 100 years, yet we haven’t<br />

reached that time yet so it could<br />

be 1000 years. The silly thing is<br />

that we don’t need them. Our<br />

parents and grandparents never<br />

needed them either. Use cloth<br />

bags – it’s that simple. Putting a<br />

levy on plastic bags or making<br />

Great New Salon<br />

Opening Soon<br />

• Global Colour • Treatment<br />

• Foils • Balayage<br />

them thicker so they are more<br />

easily reusable isn’t going to solve<br />

the problem either. It’s an initial<br />

step, though, and it raises awareness<br />

of the problem.<br />

Where do you like to hang<br />

out when you have some down<br />

time?<br />

The beach and the forest are<br />

such amazing assets on this side<br />

of the city and are extra enjoyable<br />

with kids and dogs. I mostly<br />

hang out with family and friends<br />

in winter, but with this project,<br />

I am spending my downtime<br />

working.<br />

Do you have a bucket list?<br />

What’s at the top right now?<br />

I haven’t got a bucket list as<br />

such. I’ve always tried to live<br />

my life doing what I love as I go.<br />

Though getting The Good Shop<br />

successful and making a living<br />

for those involved is at the top of<br />

my life list right now.<br />

Where do you see yourself in<br />

five years time?<br />

Everything flourishing – www.<br />

flourish.org.nz<br />

How are you enjoying these<br />

frosty winter days?<br />

I’m more of a spring and autumn<br />

person but I love the frosty<br />

days if it means sunshine all day.<br />

With the very cold mornings,<br />

though, I’m not enjoying the<br />

condensation on the windows<br />

and running the heat pump a lot<br />

more. It’s important to be warm<br />

and dry, though, to reduce the<br />

winter ills.<br />

Do you have any go-to recipes<br />

at this time of year?<br />

Usually soups like curried<br />

kumura, and my son’s favourite<br />

leek and potato, which I make<br />

nice and thick. But with having<br />

a cafe in our shop, I’m in heaven.<br />

I’ve been a vegetarian for more<br />

than 20 years and to have a<br />

whole menu I can eat from is so<br />

incredibly exciting. So I’m enjoying<br />

Pod Cafe black bean burgers<br />

or empanadas with gorgeous<br />

winter salads. I can’t feel bad<br />

about eating them a lot either<br />

as they’re so healthy and eating<br />

meat-free is one of the top things<br />

we can do for climate change.<br />

Museum puts 51 years of<br />

Pegasus Post on display<br />

COPIES OF the Pegasus Post dating back<br />

to 1966 have been bound into a book by<br />

the New Brighton Museum.<br />

The newspapers were stored in boxes<br />

at the back of the museum, but it was decided<br />

the public would enjoy them.<br />

The first box full was taken to the city<br />

council bindery at Linwood and the<br />

museum committee was thrilled with the<br />

result.<br />

One paper had a whole page on the<br />

pancake races which were an annual event<br />

on Shrove Tuesday. Teams of keen competitors<br />

would race up Seaview Rd, tossing<br />

their pancakes on the way. The museum<br />

has some handsome trophies in its cabinet<br />

from the races.<br />

Museum secretary Peggy Butterfield<br />

said not many years in the collection are<br />

complete until after 2002 when the museum<br />

opened and dedicated collecting of<br />

PEGASUS POST<br />

HISTORY: Margaret Kelso<br />

from the New Brighton<br />

Museum, pores over the<br />

newly bound Pegasus Post<br />

collection. ​<br />

the Pegasus Post began.<br />

The book is on display at the museum,<br />

along with many other treasures. One<br />

such item is Patsy and Warner Mauger’s<br />

recently written memoirs – a beautiful<br />

book stacked with memories.<br />

The museum is open every day from<br />

1-3pm so get along and browse the memorabilia.<br />

However, Monday is movie day, so<br />

it is not possible to browse that day.<br />

The museum is reliant on volunteers to<br />

open each day and is presently a bit thin<br />

on helpers. If you can spare an afternoon<br />

a week to be on the desk, meet and greet<br />

visitors and show them around, it would<br />

be greatly appreciated.<br />

“It is so important now more than ever<br />

that we preserve our local history,” said<br />

Major Production <strong>2017</strong> ‘Wolfstock’<br />

Kia ora koutou. Talofa. Kia Orana. Malo<br />

e lelei. Bula. Fakaalofaatu. Namaste<br />

and Kumusta. Greetings to our<br />

Community.<br />

I am very pleased to inform our<br />

community of two important decisions<br />

regarding our rebuild process.<br />

The school’s master-planning<br />

designers have been announced. This<br />

is the firm Architectus and we are very<br />

positive about this.<br />

www.architectus.co.nz<br />

Architectus has completed many<br />

school rebuilds and other major<br />

projects, including in Christchurch the<br />

Knowledge Centre (the Central Library)<br />

and the Bus Exchange. The lead<br />

person for our rebuild at Architectus<br />

is Carsten Auer. Carsten leads the<br />

Christchurch Architectus team. He is<br />

a Redcliffs resident and is committed<br />

to the concepts of community and<br />

inclusion which came through strongly<br />

in Architectus's submission.<br />

In Term 2, 2019 Linwood College will<br />

shift off-site for the duration of our<br />

rebuild to what will then be the former<br />

Avonside Girls’ High site. The site will<br />

be available as AGHS (and Shirley BHS)<br />

will be on their new site, formerly QE2<br />

Park. This is a very good step for us,<br />

for while it has its own processes to<br />

work through, there are three major<br />

positives:<br />

1. LC students and staff will not<br />

experience the difficult period of rebuild<br />

disruption. The time and energy<br />

that otherwise would have gone to<br />

ensuring learning was not affected<br />

can now be used more positively.<br />

2. The LC demolition and building<br />

processes start with an unoccupied<br />

site and so can operate in a single<br />

stage. This means that a year<br />

comes off the rebuild timeline so the<br />

timeline we are looking at now is 18<br />

months to two years.<br />

3. With this considerable timesaving<br />

and there being no need<br />

for relocatables to shift us around<br />

in, there is a financial saving of<br />

approximately $1 million. This money<br />

does not leave the budget so is used<br />

to enhance what we will be getting.<br />

The Ministry of Education will ensure<br />

that LC has all the support that we<br />

need during our temporary relocation,<br />

including a transport plan for our<br />

students to the new site. We will be<br />

exploring bussing options to get our<br />

students there. The MoE appoints<br />

a relocation manager and employs<br />

specialist movers skilled at shifting a<br />

school, everything from basketballs to<br />

hydrochloric acid.<br />

The AGHS site is safe. The buildings<br />

are mainly relocatable classrooms.<br />

AGHS has operated very successfully<br />

in them with a full academic and<br />

social curriculum. About half of the<br />

relocatables were brought in postearthquake<br />

so they are modern and<br />

warm. In fact, they are of better quality<br />

than our present LC classrooms.<br />

The site is close to us. I have timed my<br />

last two drives there: 3 min 50 sec and<br />

4 min 10 sec, just 2.2 kilometres from<br />

the LC front gate to the AGHS front<br />

gate.<br />

While the rebuild of Linwood College is<br />

well overdue, we are also aware that<br />

the demolition of the old school will<br />

bring mixed feelings for some. And<br />

this makes sense as a school’s physical<br />

fabric contains many memories and<br />

key moments in people’s lives. How<br />

we close and honour this chapter in our<br />

school’s history, while we open another,<br />

is important to us and already is being<br />

given due attention.<br />

Nga mihi nui to our community as the<br />

positive activity of the year continues. I<br />

am always keen to meet people if any<br />

member of the community wishes to<br />

talk to me about anything. My door is<br />

open.<br />

Flooring apprentice takes<br />

out top industry accolade<br />

A WAINONI apprentice has<br />

taken out the top title at the<br />

annual Flooring Apprentice<br />

of the Year Awards held in<br />

Christchurch.<br />

The event, held by the Building<br />

and Construction Industry<br />

Training Organisation earlier<br />

this month in conjunction with<br />

the National Flooring Association,<br />

honours excellence and<br />

dedication towards training.<br />

Nicholas Poultney from<br />

Wainoni was awarded both the<br />

stage three and the supreme apprentice<br />

of the year awards – the<br />

overall highest achiever of all<br />

winners.<br />

The award winners were selected<br />

based on the achievement<br />

and skills they display at courses<br />

provided by the Allied Trades<br />

Institute throughout the year.<br />

“Nicholas was well prepared<br />

for his course and showed a<br />

great ability to problem solve<br />

and think things through. He<br />

consistently produced a high<br />

standard of work,” said Allied<br />

Trades Institute principal tutor<br />

Jeff Henry.<br />

“All of this year’s winners are<br />

strong role models for those who<br />

may be considering an apprenticeship<br />

in the flooring industry,”<br />

said BCITO chief executive<br />

Warwick Quinn.<br />

There has never been a better<br />

time to consider a career in the<br />

trades, he said. “New Zealand<br />

is in the midst of a skills shortage<br />

and the construction and<br />

building sector desperately needs<br />

more recruits. This pressure is<br />

set to continue so anyone considering<br />

a career in the trades can<br />

be confident they are making an<br />

excellent choice.”<br />

WINNER: Supreme apprentice of the year Nicholas Poultney<br />

with Deb Paul from the Building and Construction Industry<br />

Training Organisation. ​<br />

HEALTH & AWARENESS<br />

PEGASUS POST<br />

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

could it be mainly my muscles?<br />

The team at Physical Sense in<br />

Sydenham sees clients with a<br />

range of symptoms but many<br />

of their middle-aged and senior<br />

clients visit complaining of pain in one or<br />

both hips.<br />

Physiotherapist Ietje van Stolk suggests<br />

that a major part of the pain could be due<br />

to muscle pain rather than simply arthritis.<br />

“Even if an x-ray shows arthritis, the reason<br />

for the pain may be the muscles around<br />

the joint,” she explains. Alternatively, a back<br />

muscle could also be the cause, as shown in<br />

the image.<br />

Ietje recalls one case where an 89 year old<br />

client with severe arthritis who walked with<br />

a stick, told her, “I will end up in a wheelchair,<br />

I cannot put any weight through my right<br />

leg due to pain in my hip and buttock”.<br />

“Within 4 treatments, she was walking with<br />

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

Ietje. “The arthritis was one of the factors<br />

that made her muscles spasm but the other<br />

was that older people move less and the<br />

flexed position the hip is in when we sit is<br />

particularly bad for the hip.” Ietje is happy<br />

with the fact that although the client was 89<br />

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

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

Hip muscle that causes hip pain<br />

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

her health and wellbeing.<br />

At Physical Sense, hands-on techniques<br />

(massage and triggerpoint deactivation<br />

techniques) are used to release the muscles.<br />

The client also gets a home exercise program<br />

designed to mobilize and stretch the hip,<br />

strengthen the important core muscles and<br />

increase general strength and balance. They<br />

teach a movement sequence that stretches<br />

the hip in all directions whilst the client is<br />

able to lie safely on their bed, perfect for<br />

older or less mobile clients.<br />

In many cases having the muscles<br />

released and being taught how to maintain<br />

it, is enough to stay on top of the problem. If<br />

severe arthritis is the underlying cause, some<br />

Back hip muscle that causes hip pain<br />

maintenance therapy may be necessary, but<br />

that is often more affordable and, for older<br />

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

very few treatments the client will know if<br />

it is going to work for them or not, without<br />

financial commitment.<br />

KIDSTUFF<br />

Lindisfarne nursery school<br />

Lindisfarne opened in 1987 with the aim of<br />

providing parents and families with a nursery<br />

school which respects their individual needs<br />

and aspirations. We provide full time, part<br />

time and casual enrolment opportunities for<br />

your child, so that you can organise a schedule<br />

which suits your requirements.<br />

The teachers provide learning experiences<br />

tailored to individual children’s needs and<br />

interests, and the programme promotes<br />

independent thinking and skill development.<br />

Our aim is to have happy, settled, confident<br />

children, who enjoy an environment which<br />

fosters a love of learning, and respect for all<br />

people.<br />

We are proud of our multi-national<br />

community and the opportunities this<br />

provides for both teachers and children.<br />

Regular parent and whanau activities are<br />

organised throughout the year, and we place<br />

an emphasis on a close liaison between home<br />

and nursery school, which is vital to any child’s<br />

success and progress.<br />

We do hope you find our website helpful<br />

(www.lindisfarnenursery.school.nz) but<br />

encourage you to visit the nursery school<br />

for a full information booklet. We will be<br />

delighted to meet you and your child, and<br />

welcome you to Lindisfarne.<br />

Learning through<br />

experiences,<br />

interactions and play<br />

at Marshlands Nest<br />

Roslyn Eason, fully trained and experienced<br />

early childhood teacher, owns and operates<br />

Marshlands Nest Early Learning Centre which<br />

is an intimate centre with a maximum of <strong>25</strong><br />

children.<br />

Roslyn says “Our goal is to create a setting<br />

where self-esteem, love, learning and respect<br />

for others is prominent and where every child<br />

leaves each day feeling secure and loved in<br />

their special environment.<br />

At Marshlands Nest they create a most<br />

positive environment for children so they can<br />

learn through all experiences and interactions<br />

but most importantly through play.<br />

This have a mixed licence which means<br />

children of different ages play and interact with<br />

each other. It allows siblings to be together<br />

and gives solo children a chance to be part of<br />

a larger family. It also means children do not<br />

need to transition between rooms so can stay<br />

with the same teachers and children.<br />

Marshlands Nest does recognize the need<br />

for age specific learning and a portion of each<br />

day is spent in ‘nest times” learning with<br />

others of the same age.<br />

The team at Marshland Nest would love to<br />

have you as part of their family, please feel<br />

free to drop in or give them a call.<br />

CASPA (Creative After School Programmed<br />

Activities) incorporating PAPA JACKS offers<br />

children the opportunity to be creative, make<br />

new friends and try new experiences all within<br />

a safe, nurturing environment. CASPA offers<br />

working parents an affordable after school and<br />

school holiday programme that their kids just<br />

love!<br />

CASPA attributes its success to the variety<br />

of activities on offer as well as the convenience<br />

and affordability for parents. CASPA kids<br />

enjoy an exciting range of activities including<br />

sports, music, games, drama, arts and craft as<br />

well as fun trips. Previous themes and activities<br />

have included a Karaoke Dance Party, CASPA<br />

Fear Factor, Healthy Art, Out of Africa and<br />

hundreds of other amazing themes/activities!<br />

CASPA parents enjoy peace of mind,<br />

knowing their kids are safe and enjoying the<br />

benefits of a quality after school programme.<br />

Some parents and caregivers also enjoy<br />

government subsidies for CASPA. CASPA<br />

is Child Youth and Family approved for the<br />

OSCAR Subsidy and in some circumstances,<br />

the full CASPA fee will be covered by the<br />

subsidy.<br />

REAL ESTATE<br />

An elegant answer<br />

153A Clyde Road, Fendalton<br />

Auction: Thursday, 03 August <strong>2017</strong> Unless Sold Prior<br />

3 bedrooms | 2 bathrooms | 3 toilets | 1 living room | 1 dining room | 2 car-garage | Listing # PI47784<br />

Combining elegant and beautifully<br />

proportioned spaces with ease of<br />

maintenance and a superbly convenient<br />

location, this exceptional townhouse is the<br />

perfect answer for those seeking stressfree<br />

contemporary living. Classic brick<br />

construction ensures timeless appeal,<br />

lovingly updated renovation to incorporate<br />

modern comforts including partial double<br />

glazing and a chic new kitchen. Situated in<br />

a perennially popular neighbourhood, it<br />

is zoned for top schools and is just a short<br />

stroll from the supermarket, with several<br />

cafés and restaurants within walking<br />

distance.<br />

Stone features add texture to the openplan<br />

living, providing separation between<br />

dining and lounge areas. A double-sided gas<br />

fire (above which two televisions are cleverly<br />

positioned) enhances the ambience of the<br />

space, while large sliders to the courtyard<br />

garden bathe the room in light and provide<br />

delightful leafy views. The chic kitchen<br />

combines the practicality of generous<br />

storage and bench space with contemporary<br />

extras such as under-bench lights at the<br />

breakfast bar, instant boiling water and softclose<br />

drawers. The spacious master upstairs<br />

has its own private balcony and en-suite,<br />

and two more double bedrooms share a<br />

family bathroom. A double garage, separate<br />

laundry, guest powder room and great<br />

storage ensure this property ticks all the<br />

boxes. Outside, a brick-walled courtyard<br />

garden offers an appealing and easy-care<br />

space for relaxing and entertaining.<br />

Classic design and a leafy, established<br />

setting ensures that this development is<br />

often admired. Warm, comfortable and<br />

appealing, this lovely property offers so<br />

many options. Zoned for Fendalton School,<br />

Cobham Intermediate, Burnside High,<br />

Boys’ High and Girls’ High (Jan 2018), you<br />

can be assured that your investment will be<br />

underpinned by a blue-chip location. Don’t<br />

miss this unique opportunity!<br />

Open Homes Saturday and Sunday 2:30<br />
