Call for<br />
police<br />
station to<br />
stay open<br />
longer<br />
• Sophie Cornish<br />
A CALL is being made for the<br />
New Brighton Police Station to be<br />
open on Saturdays.<br />
The Coastal-Burwood<br />
Communtiy Board has asked<br />
police chiefs to open the Seaview<br />
Rd station on Saturday morning.<br />
The move is being backed by<br />
New Brighton Business and<br />
Landowners Association’s Paul<br />
Lonsdale.<br />
“There are concerns by businesses<br />
that there has been an<br />
increase of shop theft lately and<br />
we have been in talks with police<br />
on how to mitigate those issues<br />
and find solutions,” he said.<br />
Community board member and<br />
city councillor David East said<br />
police also needed to consider<br />
opening longer on weekdays than<br />
its current 9am-4pm.<br />
City councillor Glenn Livingstone<br />
said with the new beachside<br />
playground and salt water hot<br />
pools, increased police presence in<br />
the area would be beneficial.<br />
“Having them on site would<br />
make a lot more sense.”<br />
Currently police are required to<br />
come from Papanui for call-outs<br />
to eastern suburbs during the<br />
weekends.<br />

Inside<br />
FROM<br />
THE<br />
EDITOR’S<br />
DESK<br />
NEW BRIGHTON people want<br />
the police station in Seaview Rd<br />
to be open at the weekends (see<br />
page 1).<br />
And in my mind, there’s no reason<br />
why it shouldn’t. New Brighton<br />
and surrounding seaside suburbs<br />
are an area in their own right;<br />
different to other Christchurch<br />
suburbs which roll into each other.<br />
Brighton people have always<br />
been very community-minded<br />
and the Pages Rd bridge acts like a<br />
border of sorts.<br />
The Brighton police station used<br />
to be open on the weekends (from<br />
memory) and local police dealt<br />
with local problems.<br />
But centralisation, decentralisation,<br />
and other ‘isations’ as different<br />
police administrations changed<br />
over the years has seen the station<br />
become a fort, where messages are<br />
left at the gate, and if there’s any<br />
troops inside they might be called<br />
out to fight the good fight.<br />

Still no solution over midge problem<br />
• By Sophie Cornish<br />
ashion<br />
A SOLUTION has still not been<br />
found to eradicate Bromley’s<br />
midge plague.<br />
A meeting was held on <strong>August</strong><br />
7 between city council staff and<br />
Coastal-Burwood Community<br />
Board members aimed at finding<br />
a solution.<br />
The city council has spent<br />
$800,000 over two years<br />
unsuccessfully trying to fix<br />
Gardening<br />
the midge problem from the<br />
Waitakiri School bake sale collars $607 for SPCA<br />
PARENTS AND children at<br />
Waitakiri School raised more than<br />
$600 for abused and neglected<br />
animals.<br />
otoring<br />
The annual SPCA cupcake day<br />
took place on <strong>August</strong> 14.<br />
An enormous $2 million has been<br />
raised since the day first came about<br />
in 2009.<br />
People are encouraged to fundraise<br />
by baking and selling cupcakes in<br />
their schools and workplaces.<br />
Pupils from Waitakiri School got<br />
involved this year by selling and buy-<br />
asty Bites<br />
ing baked goods during morning tea<br />
and lunchtime.<br />
Along with a bed and food collection,<br />
$607 was collected and donated<br />
to the SPCA.<br />
wastewater plant.<br />
Nearby residents say they have<br />
had enough of putting up with<br />
midges over the years.<br />
But a veil of silence remains<br />
from the city council about what<br />
has emerged from the <strong>August</strong> 7<br />
meeting.<br />
Community board member<br />
Linda Stewart said her solution<br />
– adding UV protection – was<br />
discussed but won’t elaborate on<br />
other possibilities.<br />
City councillor Glenn Livingstone<br />
refused to discuss the matter<br />
with <strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong>, saying:<br />
“It’s a complex matter and<br />
not easily resolved and it’s<br />
better if we assemble as much<br />
information as possible before<br />
putting it out there.”<br />
Ms Stewart said her solution<br />
would work.<br />
“This should’ve been put in<br />
place 20 years ago.”<br />
She said in the late 1990s, the<br />
South New Brighton Residents’<br />
Association fought hard for UV<br />
protection. But city council staff<br />
said it would only be added if<br />
needed.<br />
The cost has now increased<br />
from less than $5 million in the<br />
late 1990s to an estimated $23<br />
million, she said.<br />
But Ms Stewart said UV<br />
protection takes time, time<br />
residents don’t have with warmer<br />
weather around the corner.<br />
Bus stops<br />
at Palms<br />
to double<br />
• By Julia Evans<br />
BUS STOPS outside The Palms<br />
Shopping Centre are set to double<br />
in size to accommodate the<br />
number of passengers in the area.<br />
The city council is seeking<br />
feedback on the plan that will<br />
see a suburban bus interchange<br />
be put in outside the mall –<br />
similar to the mega stop outside<br />
Northlands Shopping Centre.<br />
Although not to the same scale.<br />
Two bus stops are set to be<br />
upgraded, one on Shirley Rd<br />
adjacent to Shirley Intermediate<br />
School.<br />
The second is on New Brighton<br />
Rd outside the south end of the<br />
mall.<br />
The proposal is to extend the<br />
painted on road bus stops to<br />
accommodate two buses at the<br />
same time.<br />
City council staff said the<br />
bus routes that service the area<br />
are high frequency which often<br />
results in two buses attending the<br />
stop simultaneously.<br />
“As each stop currently only<br />
caters for one bus when a second<br />
bus arrives it may overhang the<br />
bus stop and can obstruct traffic,”<br />
they said.<br />

Smoke alarms need<br />
to stay on the ceilings<br />
Fashion<br />
<br />
• By Mark Thomas - Specialist fire<br />
investigator<br />
WE HAD a fatal fire in<br />
Christchurch last week.<br />
So it was not the best week in<br />
our office.<br />
Part of what we do is to<br />
constantly strive to prevent such<br />
Gardening<br />
things happening by ensuring<br />
people have smoke alarms and<br />
escape plans.<br />
In the tragic loss in Cashel St<br />
(right) there were some smoke<br />
alarms.<br />
They were correctly installed<br />
but we don’t know if they had<br />
been maintained.<br />
The last one, still sounding<br />
Motoring<br />
when firefighters entered, was the bedroom where the occupant<br />
was found.<br />
But this one wasn’t on the<br />
ceiling where the backing plate<br />
remained.<br />
It had been brought down too<br />
low to give adequate warning.<br />
Had the alarm just been left on<br />
the ceiling, at the highest point<br />
Tasty Bites<br />
in the room, there’s a chance the<br />
victim would have had time to<br />
escape.<br />
Such a little thing!<br />
As always there were kitchen<br />
PHOTO: GEOFF SLOAN<br />
fires last week.<br />
At two of the four events,<br />
people ended up needing<br />
ambulance attention for smoke<br />
inhalation.<br />
Nearly always this is because<br />
they have left the kitchen and<br />
the cooking unattended and<br />
returned to fire and smoke.<br />
Then they desperately try to fix<br />
a situation that is beyond them.<br />
Stay in the kitchen!<br />
Most cooking fires will be controllable<br />
but only if you’re there<br />
when they start.<br />
There was a slightly odd fire<br />
cause in Woolston on <strong>August</strong><br />
12 where a low sun through<br />
the window reflected off a<br />
magnifying mirror causing<br />
curtains to start smoking.<br />
This happens occasionally.<br />
However, it’s one of those<br />
things that most of us would<br />
never consider.<br />
Call for nominations<br />
for road trauma awards<br />
ORGANISATIONS and people<br />
who deal with road accidents<br />
will be recognised for their<br />
work.<br />
The Canterbury Road Trauma<br />

Accident Remembrance Day at<br />
North Hagley Park on Saturday,<br />
November 4.<br />
Nominations for the awards<br />
are now being called for.<br />
Road Traffic Accident Trauma<br />
Charitable Trust spokeswoman,<br />
Sarah Dean, said the effects of<br />
road trauma extends far beyond<br />
the victims involved in the<br />
initial incident.<br />
The awards are seen as recognition<br />
and acknowledgement of<br />
this, she said.<br />
There are three award<br />
categories, Canterbury road<br />
trauma award for public<br />
service, trauma prevention and<br />
community service.<br />
The public service award will<br />
be for outstanding individuals,<br />
teams or organisations, who<br />
will receive recognition for their<br />
service and contribution to the<br />
duty of care for those affected by<br />
road trauma. This award is open<br />
to first responders, industry<br />
professionals from non-profit<br />
organisations and private and<br />
public organisations.<br />
The award for trauma<br />
prevention aims to recognise<br />
winners for their contribution<br />
to road safety, public education,<br />
road trauma prevention<br />
initiatives and duty of care in<br />
Canterbury.<br />
Those members of the community<br />
who have provided care<br />
or support to a road trauma victim<br />
throughout their treatment,<br />
recovery or rehabilitation will<br />
also be recognised through the<br />
community service award.<br />

SEMIS: Shirley<br />

Trophy semifinal<br />
tonight<br />
at 5.45pm in<br />
Cashmere.<br />
Shirley Boys go into Thompson<br />
Trophy semi as the underdog<br />
• By Sophie Cornish<br />
SHIRLEY BOYS’ High School’s<br />
senior basketball team will face<br />
an uphill battle going into the<br />
Thompson Trophy semi-final<br />
against Cashmere High tonight.<br />
Shirley made the semi-final after<br />
a hard fought 94-84 win over<br />
Ashburton College last week.<br />
Cashmere beat Shirley, also<br />
known as ‘The Spartans’, 91-53 in<br />
round three of the competition,<br />
handing Shirley one of only three<br />
losses this season.<br />
That gives them the underdog<br />
status as they head to Cashmere<br />
for the 5.45pm game, Shirley<br />
coach Scott Howell said.<br />
Good decisions and limiting<br />
their mistakes will be key factors<br />
in beating the stacked Cashmere<br />
side, Howell said.<br />
Shirley captain and standout<br />
player Sean Kelly will lead the<br />
team in the semi-final clash, with<br />
one goal ticked off for the year by<br />
making the semis.<br />
Howell believes this year’s<br />
team is very strong and has a<br />
good chance of making the final.<br />
They are looking forward<br />
to pursuing their next goal<br />
of qualifying for the national<br />
tournament at the South Island<br />
tournament in Dunedin from<br />
September 6-9.<br />
Cashmere coach Ben Sheat<br />
said it was vital to stick to their<br />
structure and continue to control<br />
the defensive end if the team is to<br />
beat Shirley.<br />
“Lots of players have<br />
contributed in different ways<br />
to the group [this season] but<br />
Connor Mclaughlin, Oki Tilaia<br />
and Tom Russ-Hofmans have<br />
been outstanding,” he said.<br />
Cashmere beat Christchurch<br />

CHRISTCHURCH Boys’ High<br />
will look to defend their UC<br />
Championship title against<br />
Timaru Boys’ High on Saturday.<br />
They are in the final after a<br />
tough, come-from-behind battle<br />
against Nelson College, which<br />
required the depth off the bench<br />
to get them home 40-34 after<br />
trailing 29-12 at halftime.<br />
The last time CBHS met<br />
Timaru was in round three, with<br />
CBHS winning <strong>22</strong>-17.<br />
Starting fullback Rico Syme,<br />
who is a recent addition to the<br />
first XV due to injuries, slotted<br />
into first-five in the second half<br />
SPORTS<br />
CBHS to defend UC title<br />
• By Andrew King<br />
CHRISTCHURCH Girls’ High<br />
are the undisputed champions<br />
of girls rugby in the city after<br />
clinching their third consecutive<br />
UC Cup title on Wednesday.<br />
The girls made short work of<br />
Burnside-Rangi 36-7, running<br />
in six tries on the Ilam Fields to<br />
record their second consecutive<br />
undefeated season in the UC Cup.<br />
Their last loss was against<br />
Motueka Girls’ High in the<br />
Crusader regional playoff last<br />
year.<br />
Coach Jaime Livingstone<br />
said it was rewarding to see<br />
against Nelson and provided a<br />
few moments of magic to help<br />
the team get home.<br />
The final will be played at<br />
CBHS’s Straven Rd ground.<br />
CBHS have made a bit of a<br />
habit of going behind and then<br />
making a comeback, but they<br />
will look to correct that on<br />
Saturday.<br />
Timaru made the final after a<br />
solid 24-10 over Christ’s College<br />
in Timaru. Meanwhile, St Bede’s<br />
will play Marlborough Boys’<br />
College in the bowl final after<br />
beating Shirley Boys’ High 36-33,<br />
while St Andrew’s missed out on<br />
a spot in the plate final after a 57-<br />
14 defeat to Waimea Combined.<br />
Girls’ High pull off three-peat<br />
them enjoying their success<br />
especially for the year 13s who<br />
have been part of all three title<br />
victories.<br />
They will now look to add<br />
a national title to the cabinet,<br />
taking on Southland Girls’ High<br />
on Saturday for the South Island<br />
title. A win will qualify them for<br />
the national top four tournament<br />
in Palmerston North.<br />

FERRYMEAD MITRE 10 MEGA<br />
TRADE CENTRE, DIY<br />
More products, faster service<br />
Ferrymead’s popular Mitre 10 MEGA has expanded, with a<br />
spacious, new facility opening this week for its trade and DIY<br />
customers, and a new Landscaping Zone installed.<br />
Located right next door to the current drive-thru facility, the<br />
new outlet replaces the former Trade drive-thru, which has been<br />
closed so earthquake repairs can be undertaken. This will be<br />
reopened at a later date as a drive-thru and storage area.<br />
The culmination of almost four years’ work, which involved a<br />
complete fit-out to an existing building, the new 3200sqm premises<br />
and drive-thru facility is 50 per cent larger than the current drivethru,<br />
providing a much greater space for product display as well as<br />
easier and quicker access for tradespeople and DIY customers to<br />
purchase supplies.<br />
Trade manager John Barltrop says the new space also makes<br />
it easier for Mitre 10 team members to process orders efficiently<br />
during busy periods, while continuing to provide a high level of<br />
service for customers.<br />
The space features wide aisles with an extensive range of framing<br />
and finishing timbers, along with all the common wallboards and<br />
fixings.<br />
The other outstanding feature of Mitre 10 MEGA Ferrymead’s<br />
new site is the outdoor Timber Yard and Landscaping Zone,<br />
covering a further 7000sqm. This new area presents an extensive<br />
range of Landscaping supplies and incorporates 19 bulk bins,<br />
stocking a wide range of product including compost, lawn<br />
mix, bark, aggregates and decorative stone, giving professional<br />
landscapers and DIY customers plenty of options for their home<br />
and property improvement projects.<br />

The<br />
Principal’s<br />
Desk<br />
Towards the future<br />
Mairehau High School is in a strong<br />
position to offer students opportunities<br />
which will enable them to become<br />
learners who are critical thinkers and<br />
communicators, responsible and<br />
empathetic, confident and connected, digitally fluent, and who embrace<br />
challenges.<br />
Teachers within our school are leading and developing key initiatives which<br />
will provide students with the skills, capabilities and fluency to enable them<br />
to be successful life-long learners in a digital world. In our school, we use<br />
our head, heart and hands which enable us to describe the critical thinking<br />
student who is numerate and literate; a student who can take responsibility<br />
for their own learning and manage themselves. The students who pass<br />
through our school gates, learn in our classrooms, and access technology<br />
through our wireless internet provision, will be well set in the future to access<br />
tertiary or employment opportunities.<br />
Mairehau High School has implemented Modern Learning Practices through<br />
the schools Year 9 and Year 10 flexible learning environment initiative this<br />
year. our school continues to implement innovative and creative strategies to<br />
support and enhance school improvement and student achievement.<br />
To accommodate roll growth, a multimillion dollar building project is in the<br />
planning stage to transform Mairehau High School, and ensure secondary<br />
school co-educational school provision in the East of Christchurch. The<br />
school is about to enter the design stage. At the moment, we are waiting on<br />
key compliance reports to be completed before building can take place.<br />
Christchurch East Secondary Schools<br />
All Christchurch East Secondary Schools are passionate about improving<br />
achievement and learning outcomes for all. Mairehau High School is<br />
connecting and building relationships with Te Ara Tūhura, a cluster of Primary<br />
and Early Childhood schools in the East. This cluster is focused on improved<br />
outcomes for all our learners, in each of our schools. our school is also<br />
very keen to continue to foster strong relationships with our local tertiary<br />
institutions such as the university of Canterbury, Ara, Southern Institute of<br />
Technology, and Lincoln university. I am confident in working with other East<br />
Christchurch Secondary schools and education providers on the future and<br />
quality of Teaching and Learning for our learners.<br />
Acknowledgement<br />
I take this opportunity to acknowledge Mr Mark Bell ( former Deputy<br />
Principal) and to congratulate and wish him all the very best in his new<br />
role as an Education Review Evaluator. Mark has contributed significantly<br />
to Mairehau High School and we know that he will make a huge impact in<br />
making a positive difference to many other schools in his new position.<br />

Congratulations<br />
We would like to congratulate our Deputy Principal, Mark<br />
Bell, on his appointment to a position at the Education<br />
Review office.<br />
It was with great sadness, but with our very best wishes,<br />
that we farewelled Mark at the end of Term 2. Mark had<br />
been at Mairehau High School for over 14 years, and was<br />
a highly respected and much beloved member of our<br />
school community.<br />
He was a wonderful ambassador for our school, always<br />
championing us to the wider community. Mark believed in our school, and<br />
believed in our students, always encouraging them to shoot for the stars and<br />
have pride in themselves. It is fair to say he enriched the lives of many students<br />
and staff in his time at Mairehau High School.<br />
Mark was welcomed to the Education Review office in a dignified and moving<br />
ceremony in Dunedin during the school holidays, with Harry Romana, the<br />
Principal, and Rebecca Swanson, the Assistant Principal, travelling to support<br />
him on behalf of the school.<br />
We wish him all the best in his new position at ERo. Kia kaha, Mr Bell. go well!<br />
Mark Bell<br />
It is our pleasure to announce that after a rigorous recruiting<br />
process, Ms Siobhan Murphy has been appointed to the<br />
position of Deputy Principal to Mairehau High School.<br />
Siobhan joins our staff in Term 4 as Deputy Principal from<br />
Aranui High School, where she was Assistant Principal in 2016.<br />
Siobhan’s association with Aranui High School began in 1989<br />
when she accepted a Homeroom position, teaching a junior<br />
class all their compulsory subjects, except PE. Further roles<br />
at Aranui included HoD Social Sciences, Dean, Tutor and<br />
more recently, the School garden’s chief gnome. Siobhan is very much looking<br />
forward to reconnecting with ex-colleagues and students from Aranui who are<br />
now at Mairehau High School.<br />
Siobhan lives in Mairehau with her husband Andrew. Together they have two<br />
children studying at university who they catch up with during holidays and<br />
hear from when the fridge in their flat needs refilling. During winter the whole<br />
family enjoys spending time together at Broken River Ski field.<br />
This year Siobhan has embarked on a Masters degree as well as learning Te Reo<br />
(Māori Language) which means her garden has been left to grow wild and due<br />
to the lack of exercise, her dog Alfie is growing larger and larger. Focussing<br />
on learning so intensely, Siobhan has found herself “walking in her students’<br />
shoes” and she realises that being a student in <strong>2017</strong> can be very challenging<br />
and exciting at the same time. The range of learning opportunities at Mairehau<br />
High School encouraging passion and offering individual challenges to both<br />
students and staff are what excites Siobhan most about joining us here.<br />

Top Student Excellence Award<br />
During the recent term break, Year 11 Student Cody McCallum<br />
attended the Blue Light Youth Course run at the Burnham<br />
Military Camp. Cody did extremely well on this and was awarded<br />
the Top Student Excellence Award out of 30 students who were<br />
on the course.<br />
Cody has a definite career pathway in place – and we hope to<br />
see Cody in a police officer’s uniform in the next few years.<br />

Tena koutou katoa<br />
At the end of Term 2, Mairehau High<br />
School was represented at Ngā Manu<br />
Kōrero - our regional Māori speech<br />
competition for both the Canterbury<br />
and West Coast regions, for the first<br />
time in 6 years.<br />
We were fortunate to have two of<br />
our students stand to represent us<br />
this year. We had Phoenix Neilson<br />
represent us in the Senior Māori<br />
section, and La Bella Currin-Waru<br />
represent us in the Senior English<br />
section. It was the first time both<br />
students had ever stood to represent<br />
at Ngā Manu Kōrero and did so in<br />
front of all of the competing schools<br />
in both the Canterbury and West<br />
Coast regions. Just getting to this<br />
point was an achievement in itself,<br />
not to mention that both of our<br />
representative students are in Year<br />
11 and were standing up against<br />
Year 12 and 13 students from the<br />
other competing schools.<br />
Both students did a great job and<br />
represented our school with pride.<br />
At the end of both speeches our<br />
newly established kapahaka group, under the reins of our new kapahaka tutor<br />
Miss Satriani Reihana, stood and performed our recently composed Mairehau High<br />
School haka for the first time in a public arena, with great passion.<br />
A lot of milestones were achieved that day.<br />
Whaea Dayna<br />
Hagley Dance Company<br />
on the 10th of <strong>August</strong> Hagley Dance<br />
Company came to our school to run a 90<br />
minute work shop. This was offered to all year<br />
11 - 13 Performing Arts students. It began<br />
with a performance by the Dance Company<br />
of a Maori inspired contemporary piece<br />
which was incredibly moving. They then ran<br />
a full muscle and bone warm up and then<br />
everyone split into groups to learn some<br />
contemporary choreography. This was great<br />
for dancers of all levels and everyone came<br />
away with a good experience.<br />
Dance and Performing Arts at Mairehau High<br />
School is thriving and continually moving<br />

FLT (Flexible Learning Time)<br />
Mystery dish<br />
We recently had a visit from Canterbury university who delivered interactive lessons to<br />
all Year 9 and Year 10 students in FLT (Flexible Learning Time). Students learnt about<br />
water purification in developing countries and about the many economic and practical<br />
issues which impact upon this. our students created water filters in groups and were<br />
given budgets and materials in accordance with the nation they were allocated.<br />
our Year 9 students also have a Life Skills class which<br />
is covered in FLT. Some of the topics covered have<br />
been gardening, how to change a car tyre, meditation,<br />
driver education, cooking from a mystery food box and<br />
problem solving.<br />
Flexible Learning Time (or FLT) enables our students<br />
in Year 9 and 10 to engage in personalised, crosscurricular<br />
and real-life learning opportunities for 3<br />
hours each week. The emphasis is on our students<br />
choosing and directing their own learning journey with<br />
the support of their teaching team.<br />
Most recently our Year 10s worked on projects that<br />
might contribute to their future career selection whilst<br />
our Year 9s worked on projects that involved them<br />
learning invaluable life skills, though generally not on<br />
a school curriculum. Both projects involved students Learning to make water purifiers<br />
embracing new experiences and extending their<br />
knowledge, skills and thinking.<br />
Smokefree Rockquest <strong>2017</strong><br />

Moa, Nesian Mystik and our very own Mairehau High School<br />
student band Falter, who were the National winners in 2003.<br />
This year we had four entries with two groups and two soloists<br />
carrying on our proud tradition. Entrants have to write and<br />
perform original music.<br />
This year we had the group, Heck, I Don’t Know – Ella Peoples, Rachel Wilson, Maddy<br />
Bouma and Tammy Reynard, and soloist entrants, Rachel Nolan and Moeka Ishizawa,<br />
and Darrell Faamau Suaesi in a group with his friends, who competed at the Aurora<br />
Centre on Saturday May 27th.<br />
We were really proud when Darrell and his friends from Haeata were chosen to go<br />
forward to the Regional Final and even more so, when they were selected to go to the<br />
National Final on Sept 2 in Auckland. good luck to you and the group Darrell.<br />

HEALTH & AWARENESS<br />
RSI, OOS or Gradual Process Injury<br />
can be treated!<br />
What causes OOS? The Department<br />
of Labour states: “One of the<br />
favourable explanations for OOS is<br />
that it is caused by muscles being<br />
held tense or tight for too long.’’<br />
These conditions may be caused<br />
by repetitive tasks, forceful exertions,<br />
vibrations, mechanical compression, or<br />
sustained or awkward positions.<br />
The shorter and tenser the muscle, the<br />
harder it pulls on the places it attaches to<br />
(e.g. the bone). When this happens in the<br />
forearm the pull at those attachments and<br />
tendons causes irritation and inflammation<br />
of those areas. This will be noticed as pain in<br />
the elbow and wrist. When this happens in<br />
the neck and shoulder area, it will be noticed<br />
as local pain, stiffness and sometimes<br />
headaches. The nerves run right through<br />
the muscles. Tension on the muscles causes<br />
pressure on the nerves. As the muscles<br />
shorten, the nerves running through them<br />
have a tendency to both shorten and slide<br />
less well. This causes the nerves to radiate<br />
pain throughout the arm.<br />
Triggerpoints are areas in your muscles,<br />
where a few muscle fibres have contracted<br />
<br />

areas in your muscles felt during massage) neck. Pain in your<br />

forearm can originate<br />
This drawing is an example of pain areas in your chest. This<br />

your therapist may<br />
<br />
<br />
treat an area, other<br />
than where you are<br />
<br />
experiencing pain.<br />
In the following<br />
drawing you can see<br />
the painful areas in<br />
the head caused by the triggerpoint in the<br />
neck. This is often the result of poor posture.<br />
<br />
Physical Sense has been treating<br />
this condition for the last 25 years.<br />
Their experience is:<br />
<br />
• Most of the patients who have had their<br />
pain for less than a year leave this clinic free<br />
This is your muscle’s reaction to of pain (but they have to be very careful to<br />
<br />
continuous irritation. In most cases, there avoid relapses).<br />
<br />
are multiple causes for this irritation. These • When the OOS pain has been there<br />
<br />
could be: repeated actions without breaks; for more than a year, that percentage drops<br />
constant <br />
static posture resulting in constant to 60%.<br />
<br />
muscle contraction; lack of healthy blood • The other 40% will leave the clinic with<br />
flow; <br />

high <br />
loading of some muscles, etc. numerous strategies to relieve and handle<br />

FOCUS ON HEALTH<br />
Time Honoured Remedy<br />
Supporting Your<br />
Bowel & Digestive<br />
Function Helps<br />
Prevent Disease<br />
Keeping your digestive system<br />
and bowels functioning efficiently<br />
is definitely an important step in<br />
obtaining and maintaining good<br />
long term health.<br />
It is most important to keep the whole<br />
digestive and elimination systems of the<br />
body working efficiently. Many diseases<br />
have been linked with micro-organisms<br />
(virus) or a bacterial component. We know<br />
that when the digestive system and bowel<br />
function 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 for<br />
efficient digestion. This alone may help<br />
prevent many diseases as a properly working<br />
digestive system will itself neutralise many<br />
disease causing organisms. LBS II also<br />
stimulates peristaltic action of the colon<br />
effectively cleansing the colon of any<br />
accumulated build-ups of waste material.<br />
It also relaxes abdominal cramping and<br />
spasms, enhances liver function, purifies<br />
the blood, neutralizes acidic conditions,<br />
helps destroy intestinal parasites and<br />
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 />

According to a country Doctor “D.C.<br />
Jarvis” from Vermont in the USA cider<br />
vinegar and honey (CV & H) can be an<br />
important part of a long healthy life. Dr.<br />
Jarvis noted Vermonters who regularly<br />
consumed cider vinegar and honey had<br />
excellent health with many putting in a<br />
vigorous day’s work on the farm even when<br />
well into their eighties.<br />
Dr. Jarvis found the effects of cider<br />
vinegar and honey on arthritis can be<br />
remarkable with many patients reporting<br />
almost total relief after taking a course.<br />
As well as a general tonic Dr. Jarvis found<br />
regular administration of cider vinegar and<br />
honey at the onset of complaints such as the<br />
common cold, sinusitis, asthmatic attacks,<br />
hay fever, and childhood diseases such as<br />
McKenzie Lifestyle Village is in the final<br />
stages of completion. There are still great<br />
sites available and we also have a number<br />
of affordable villas ready for immediate<br />
occupation.<br />
Our beautiful Leisure Centre is available<br />
and the pools, gymnasium and library and<br />
lounge area are in use daily. Outside, the<br />
bowling green is very popular along with<br />
Petanque, Mini-golf and Table Bowls.<br />
The residents enjoy an enviable resort style<br />
lifestyle. It is also surprisingly affordable. A<br />
former Christchurch resident, Judith, says<br />
“We couldn’t have all this for what we are<br />
paying if we were still in Christchurch.”<br />
Another resident, David, says “my wife and<br />
chicken pox and measles, was accompanied<br />
by an improvement in the condition with<br />

Apple cider vinegar contains all the<br />
goodness of the apple in a form that is<br />
readily accepted by the body. Scientists<br />
have found over 90 different substances<br />
in ACV, among them 20 important trace<br />
elements, minerals, essential enzymes, a<br />
number of different acids including malic<br />
acid, amino acids and roughage in the form<br />
of potash and pectin. A scientific study at<br />
the Shizuka University in Japan has proven<br />

Geraldine is a great little town with a<br />
very pleasant microclimate. There is plenty<br />
to do in and around the town with art<br />
galleries, theatre and cinema, interesting<br />
shops and boutiques, two museums and a<br />
wide range of good places to eat. For the<br />
more adventurous there are river and forest<br />
walks nearby, opportunities for biking and<br />
a choice of two local golf clubs.<br />

ACV and H is a powerful tonic that<br />
also promotes digestion, assimilation of<br />
nutrients and elimination of waste, and<br />
helps neutralize any toxic substances that<br />
enter the body.<br />
It is important to note not all cider<br />
vinegar is made in the traditional way and<br />
results are likely to prove disappointing<br />
with some other vinegars.<br />

Emma’s back!<br />
THAT’S right folks, Emma Palaamo has returned to<br />
the Richmond Club Bistro, and this time she is<br />
running it!<br />
Emma last worked at the Club when her parents<br />
Bev and Steve Palaamo were running the Bistro and<br />
Restaurant pre-EQ.<br />
Unsure of what she wanted to do when she left<br />
school Emma decided to attend university where she<br />
earned a degree in English and Psychology.<br />
“I’ve wondered if I’d ever use my degree, but I love<br />
being in the kitchen. Cooking’s in my blood. It’s what<br />
I’m used to,” said Emma.<br />
Largely trained by her father, Emma said she was<br />
nervous when she was initially offered running the<br />
Bistro.<br />
“My parents have such a good reputation and I don’t<br />
want to let Dad down. The reaction to my menu and<br />
cooking has been great, and regular members are very<br />
happy to see me back.”<br />
With her first few weeks spent gauging what diners<br />
wanted, Emma is confident she has streamlined the<br />
menu to provide a selection to satisfy everyone.<br />
“I’ve listened to what they want and have taken<br />
heed. by bringing back the old with new. I’m also<br />
doing blackboard specials and two course specials, as<br />
well as introducing a Kids’ menu.”<br />
The Club Bistro is open for LUNCH Tuesday to<br />
Sunday (Brunch), for DINNER Wednesday to Sunday<br />
and is also available for private functions.<br />

Greetings to our<br />
Community.<br />
Last year Linwood<br />
College and a<br />
group based on the East Christchurch<br />
community centres undertook a major<br />
community consultation about our<br />
school. This opportunity to be involved<br />
in the vision for the redevelopment of<br />
Linwood College was whole-heartedly<br />
embraced by the community. Over<br />
1300 people responded with many of<br />
these responses being face-to-face<br />
conversations.<br />
A variety of themes arose out of these<br />
conversations with the dominant being<br />
that:<br />
Linwood College should nurture<br />
personal excellence by providing<br />
varied opportunities to meet<br />
individual needs. The school should<br />
foster a ‘love to learn’ culture that<br />
creates high levels of achievement<br />
and success in ways that are<br />
accessible for all.<br />
This theme drives everything that we<br />
do and at present it is being applied to<br />
how our students select their senior<br />
subjects. Our own LC experience, that<br />
of our families and whãnau and formal<br />
research, all agree that for many<br />
teenagers the process of selecting<br />
subjects becomes more personally<br />
important and meaningful when part<br />
of considering wider career pathways.<br />
This is why LC now calls our Years 7-10<br />
curriculum the ‘Learning Pathway’ and<br />
Years 11-13 the ‘Career Pathway’.<br />
Yes, education is full of jargon but in this<br />
case, there actually are some helpful<br />
phrases that enhance understanding.<br />
Two such terms are Backward<br />
Mapping and UBD, Understanding<br />
by Design. A useful overall summary<br />
sentence is, “Start with the end in mind<br />
and work backwards.” To support this<br />
way of thinking we have redesigned<br />
the Career Pathways booklet and<br />
subsequent processes to link school<br />
subject choices with pathwayunderstanding.<br />
It is about positioning<br />
teenagers to be future-focussed:<br />
thinking ahead, playing to their<br />
strengths and accepting challenges.<br />
Ngã 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 />

Emerging Leaders<br />
Last month the Samoan National Fagasa speech<br />
competition was held in Woolston at the EFKS<br />
church. Congratulations to Vai Mariner - 1st equal<br />
for Year 13, Titi Ma Sun - 4th for Year 13 and Gloria<br />
Su'a - 2nd for Year 11. This was an outstanding<br />
result especially considering that they were up<br />
against students from the Auckland and Wellington<br />
regions!<br />

As the newly appointed Performing<br />
Arts teacher, when I first came to<br />
Linwood College I was quick to see<br />
the wonderful talent that our school<br />
had and sought a musical which our<br />
students and families would enjoy.<br />
Settling on a Maverick Musical called,<br />
‘Wolfstock’ (written by Mary McMahan<br />
with music by Donald Woodward),<br />
this was the perfect challenge for our<br />
students.<br />
With time and practice the students<br />
thrived in this environment and the<br />
end product was exciting, funny and<br />
dynamic. I am exceptionally proud of<br />
my students and the effort that they put<br />
in. To all the parents who transported,<br />
waited, got up super early and gathered<br />
costumes - thank you so much! We<br />
could not have done this without your<br />
support. I can't wait for the next one.<br />

In early July, selected students<br />
were given the opportunity<br />
to attend the annual Christ’s<br />
College Emerging Leaders’<br />
Conference, along with<br />
representatives from many<br />
Canterbury schools. At this<br />
conference many inspirational<br />
speakers told their own<br />
unique stories and passed<br />
on quintessential advice for<br />
Communities of Learning<br />
aspiring young leaders.<br />
Callum Lawson, said that the<br />
day was an inspiration. His<br />
favourite message was from<br />
the speaker Joel Bouzaid, that<br />
leadership is something that<br />
you can own, something that<br />
you can bend and mould to suit<br />
your traits and strengths, so<br />
that you can be the leader you<br />
hope to be.<br />

Linwood College belongs to two Communities of Learning. Tamai is the schools<br />
of Bamford, Bromley, Linwood Avenue, Linwood College, Linwood North,<br />
Tamariki and Te Waka Unua. The other is Aupaki: Heathcote Valley, Linwood<br />
College, Mount Pleasant, Our Lady Star of the Sea, Redcliffs and Sumner.<br />
We are very excited about the rich opportunities that lay ahead for our tamariki<br />
within these learning communities or kãhui ako from early childhood through to<br />
secondary school and beyond for many years to come.<br />
