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

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

Still no solution over midge problem
• By Sophie Cornish
ashion
A SOLUTION has still not been
found to eradicate Bromley’s
midge plague.
A meeting was held on August
7 between city council staff and
Coastal-Burwood Community
Board members aimed at finding
a solution.
The city council has spent
$800,000 over two years
unsuccessfully trying to fix

Waitakiri School bake sale collars $607 for SPCA
PARENTS AND children at
Waitakiri School raised more than
$600 for abused and neglected
animals.
otoring
The annual SPCA cupcake day
took place on August 14.
An enormous $2 million has been
raised since the day first came about
in 2009.
People are encouraged to fundraise
by baking and selling cupcakes in
their schools and workplaces.
Pupils from Waitakiri School got
involved this year by selling and buy-

and lunchtime.
Along with a bed and food collection,
$607 was collected and donated
to the SPCA.
wastewater plant.
Nearby residents say they have
had enough of putting up with
midges over the years.
But a veil of silence remains
from the city council about what
has emerged from the August 7
meeting.
Community board member
Linda Stewart said her solution
– adding UV protection – was
discussed but won’t elaborate on
other possibilities.
City councillor Glenn Livingstone
refused to discuss the matter
with Pegasus Post, saying:
“It’s a complex matter and
not easily resolved and it’s
better if we assemble as much
information as possible before
putting it out there.”
Ms Stewart said her solution
would work.
“This should’ve been put in
place 20 years ago.”
She said in the late 1990s, the
South New Brighton Residents’
Association fought hard for UV
protection. But city council staff
said it would only be added if
needed.
The cost has now increased
from less than $5 million in the
late 1990s to an estimated $23
million, she said.
But Ms Stewart said UV
protection takes time, time
residents don’t have with warmer
weather around the corner.
Bus stops
at Palms
to double
• By Julia Evans
BUS STOPS outside The Palms
Shopping Centre are set to double
in size to accommodate the
number of passengers in the area.
The city council is seeking
feedback on the plan that will
see a suburban bus interchange
be put in outside the mall –
similar to the mega stop outside
Northlands Shopping Centre.
Although not to the same scale.
Two bus stops are set to be
upgraded, one on Shirley Rd
adjacent to Shirley Intermediate
School.
The second is on New Brighton
Rd outside the south end of the
mall.
The proposal is to extend the
painted on road bus stops to
accommodate two buses at the
same time.
City council staff said the
bus routes that service the area
are high frequency which often
results in two buses attending the
stop simultaneously.
“As each stop currently only
caters for one bus when a second
bus arrives it may overhang the
bus stop and can obstruct traffic,”
they said.

Smoke alarms need
to stay on the ceilings
Fashion
• By Mark Thomas - Specialist fire
investigator
WE HAD a fatal fire in
Christchurch last week.
So it was not the best week in
our office.
Part of what we do is to
constantly strive to prevent such
Gardening
things happening by ensuring
people have smoke alarms and
escape plans.
In the tragic loss in Cashel St
(right) there were some smoke
alarms.
They were correctly installed
but we don’t know if they had
been maintained.
The last one, still sounding
Motoring
when firefighters entered, was the bedroom where the occupant
was found.
But this one wasn’t on the
ceiling where the backing plate
remained.
It had been brought down too
low to give adequate warning.
Had the alarm just been left on
the ceiling, at the highest point
Tasty Bites
in the room, there’s a chance the
victim would have had time to
escape.
Such a little thing!
As always there were kitchen

fires last week.
At two of the four events,
people ended up needing
ambulance attention for smoke
inhalation.
Nearly always this is because
they have left the kitchen and
the cooking unattended and
returned to fire and smoke.
Then they desperately try to fix
a situation that is beyond them.
Stay in the kitchen!
Most cooking fires will be controllable
but only if you’re there
when they start.
There was a slightly odd fire
cause in Woolston on August
12 where a low sun through
the window reflected off a
magnifying mirror causing
curtains to start smoking.
This happens occasionally.
However, it’s one of those
things that most of us would
never consider.
Call for nominations
for road trauma awards
ORGANISATIONS and people
who deal with road accidents
will be recognised for their
work.
The Canterbury Road Trauma
Awards will be held at the Road
Accident Remembrance Day at
North Hagley Park on Saturday,
November 4.
Nominations for the awards
are now being called for.
Road Traffic Accident Trauma
Charitable Trust spokeswoman,
Sarah Dean, said the effects of
road trauma extends far beyond
the victims involved in the
initial incident.
The awards are seen as recognition
and acknowledgement of
this, she said.
There are three award
categories, Canterbury road
trauma award for public
service, trauma prevention and
community service.
The public service award will
be for outstanding individuals,
teams or organisations, who
will receive recognition for their
service and contribution to the
duty of care for those affected by
road trauma. This award is open
to first responders, industry
professionals from non-profit
organisations and private and
public organisations.
The award for trauma
prevention aims to recognise
winners for their contribution
to road safety, public education,
road trauma prevention
initiatives and duty of care in
Canterbury.
Those members of the community
who have provided care
or support to a road trauma victim
throughout their treatment,
recovery or rehabilitation will
also be recognised through the
community service award.
Nominations can be
made on the Road Traffic
Accident Trauma Charitable
Trust’s website http://

SEMIS: Shirley
Boys’ High
will take on
Cashmere
High in the
Thompson
Trophy semifinal
tonight
at 5.45pm in
Cashmere.
Shirley Boys go into Thompson
Trophy semi as the underdog
• By Sophie Cornish
SHIRLEY BOYS’ High School’s
senior basketball team will face
an uphill battle going into the
Thompson Trophy semi-final
against Cashmere High tonight.
Shirley made the semi-final after
a hard fought 94-84 win over
Ashburton College last week.
Cashmere beat Shirley, also
known as ‘The Spartans’, 91-53 in
round three of the competition,
handing Shirley one of only three
losses this season.
That gives them the underdog
status as they head to Cashmere
for the 5.45pm game, Shirley
coach Scott Howell said.
Good decisions and limiting
their mistakes will be key factors
in beating the stacked Cashmere
side, Howell said.
Shirley captain and standout
player Sean Kelly will lead the
team in the semi-final clash, with
one goal ticked off for the year by
making the semis.
Howell believes this year’s
team is very strong and has a
good chance of making the final.
They are looking forward
to pursuing their next goal
of qualifying for the national
tournament at the South Island
tournament in Dunedin from
September 6-9.
Cashmere coach Ben Sheat
said it was vital to stick to their
structure and continue to control
the defensive end if the team is to
beat Shirley.
“Lots of players have
contributed in different ways
to the group [this season] but
Connor Mclaughlin, Oki Tilaia
and Tom Russ-Hofmans have
been outstanding,” he said.
Cashmere beat Christchurch
Boys’ High 99-51 last week to
make the semi-final.

to get them home 40-34 after
trailing 29-12 at halftime.
The last time CBHS met

SPORTS
CBHS to defend UC title
• By Andrew King
CHRISTCHURCH Girls’ High
are the undisputed champions
of girls rugby in the city after
clinching their third consecutive
UC Cup title on Wednesday.
The girls made short work of
Burnside-Rangi 36-7, running
in six tries on the Ilam Fields to
record their second consecutive
undefeated season in the UC Cup.
Their last loss was against
Motueka Girls’ High in the
Crusader regional playoff last
year.
Coach Jaime Livingstone
said it was rewarding to see
against Nelson and provided a
few moments of magic to help
the team get home.
The final will be played at
CBHS’s Straven Rd ground.
CBHS have made a bit of a
habit of going behind and then
making a comeback, but they
will look to correct that on
Saturday.
Timaru made the final after a
solid 24-10 over Christ’s College
in Timaru. Meanwhile, St Bede’s
will play Marlborough Boys’
College in the bowl final after
beating Shirley Boys’ High 36-33,
while St Andrew’s missed out on
a spot in the plate final after a 57-
14 defeat to Waimea Combined.
Girls’ High pull off three-peat
them enjoying their success
especially for the year 13s who
have been part of all three title
victories.
They will now look to add
a national title to the cabinet,
taking on Southland Girls’ High
on Saturday for the South Island
title. A win will qualify them for
the national top four tournament
in Palmerston North.

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

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

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

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

Tena koutou katoa
At the end of Term 2, Mairehau High
School was represented at Ngā Manu
Kōrero - our regional Māori speech
competition for both the Canterbury
and West Coast regions, for the first
time in 6 years.
We were fortunate to have two of
our students stand to represent us
this year. We had Phoenix Neilson
represent us in the Senior Māori
section, and La Bella Currin-Waru
represent us in the Senior English
section. It was the first time both
students had ever stood to represent
at Ngā Manu Kōrero and did so in
front of all of the competing schools
in both the Canterbury and West
Coast regions. Just getting to this
point was an achievement in itself,
not to mention that both of our
representative students are in Year
11 and were standing up against
Year 12 and 13 students from the
other competing schools.
Both students did a great job and
represented our school with pride.
At the end of both speeches our
newly established kapahaka group, under the reins of our new kapahaka tutor
Miss Satriani Reihana, stood and performed our recently composed Mairehau High
School haka for the first time in a public arena, with great passion.
A lot of milestones were achieved that day.

Hagley Dance Company
on the 10th of August Hagley Dance
Company came to our school to run a 90
minute work shop. This was offered to all year
11 - 13 Performing Arts students. It began
with a performance by the Dance Company
of a Maori inspired contemporary piece
which was incredibly moving. They then ran
a full muscle and bone warm up and then
everyone split into groups to learn some
contemporary choreography. This was great
for dancers of all levels and everyone came
away with a good experience.
Dance and Performing Arts at Mairehau High
School is thriving and continually moving
forward!

FLT (Flexible Learning Time)
Mystery dish
We recently had a visit from Canterbury university who delivered interactive lessons to
all Year 9 and Year 10 students in FLT (Flexible Learning Time). Students learnt about
water purification in developing countries and about the many economic and practical
issues which impact upon this. our students created water filters in groups and were
given budgets and materials in accordance with the nation they were allocated.
our Year 9 students also have a Life Skills class which
is covered in FLT. Some of the topics covered have
been gardening, how to change a car tyre, meditation,
driver education, cooking from a mystery food box and
problem solving.
Flexible Learning Time (or FLT) enables our students
in Year 9 and 10 to engage in personalised, crosscurricular
and real-life learning opportunities for 3
hours each week. The emphasis is on our students
choosing and directing their own learning journey with
the support of their teaching team.
Most recently our Year 10s worked on projects that
might contribute to their future career selection whilst
our Year 9s worked on projects that involved them
learning invaluable life skills, though generally not on
a school curriculum. Both projects involved students Learning to make water purifiers
embracing new experiences and extending their
knowledge, skills and thinking.
Smokefree Rockquest 2017
Rockquest was founded by two music teachers in 1988 (glenn
Common and Pete Rainey) and since then there have been
countless successes in its 29-year history such as Bic Runga, Anika
Moa, Nesian Mystik and our very own Mairehau High School
student band Falter, who were the National winners in 2003.
This year we had four entries with two groups and two soloists
carrying on our proud tradition. Entrants have to write and
perform original music.
This year we had the group, Heck, I Don’t Know – Ella Peoples, Rachel Wilson, Maddy
Bouma and Tammy Reynard, and soloist entrants, Rachel Nolan and Moeka Ishizawa,
and Darrell Faamau Suaesi in a group with his friends, who competed at the Aurora
Centre on Saturday May 27th.
We were really proud when Darrell and his friends from Haeata were chosen to go
forward to the Regional Final and even more so, when they were selected to go to the
National Final on Sept 2 in Auckland. good luck to you and the group Darrell.

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

FOCUS ON HEALTH
Time Honoured Remedy
Supporting Your
Bowel & Digestive
Function Helps
Prevent Disease
Keeping your digestive system
and bowels functioning efficiently
is definitely an important step in
obtaining and maintaining good
long term health.
It is most important to keep the whole
digestive and elimination systems of the
body working efficiently. Many diseases
have been linked with micro-organisms
(virus) or a bacterial component. We know
that when the digestive system and bowel
function are poor we have many more health
problems. These include arthritis, digestive
problems like reflux and stomach pain,
bladder infections, chronic skin conditions
such as eczema, psoriasis and rashes, poor
eyesight, pain and inflammation, tumors
and a weakened immune system just to
name a few.
Nature’s Sunshine LBS II contains a
highly effective blend of natural herbs to
support the whole digestive system and it
is especially effective at cleansing the lower
bowel and intestinal tract. It is commonly
used for arthritis, constipation, diarrhea,
digestive problems, dry stool, fever, colds
and influenza, flatulence, gallstones, gout,
skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis,
urinary infections, liver dysfunction,
Candida, weakened immune function and
for people who want to keep their health as
good as possible.
The herbs in LBS II help stimulate the
production of digestive fluids and bile for
efficient digestion. This alone may help
prevent many diseases as a properly working
digestive system will itself neutralise many
disease causing organisms. LBS II also
stimulates peristaltic action of the colon
effectively cleansing the colon of any
accumulated build-ups of waste material.
It also relaxes abdominal cramping and
spasms, enhances liver function, purifies
the blood, neutralizes acidic conditions,
helps destroy intestinal parasites and
worms, and fights infection.
Keeping your digestive system and
bowels functioning efficiently is definitely
an important step in obtaining and
maintaining good long term health.
LBS II and further information is

Advisers at Marshall’s Health & Natural
Therapy, 110 Seaview Road, New

According to a country Doctor “D.C.
Jarvis” from Vermont in the USA cider
vinegar and honey (CV & H) can be an
important part of a long healthy life. Dr.
Jarvis noted Vermonters who regularly
consumed cider vinegar and honey had
excellent health with many putting in a
vigorous day’s work on the farm even when
well into their eighties.
Dr. Jarvis found the effects of cider
vinegar and honey on arthritis can be
remarkable with many patients reporting
almost total relief after taking a course.
As well as a general tonic Dr. Jarvis found
regular administration of cider vinegar and
honey at the onset of complaints such as the
common cold, sinusitis, asthmatic attacks,
hay fever, and childhood diseases such as
McKenzie Lifestyle Village is in the final
stages of completion. There are still great
sites available and we also have a number
of affordable villas ready for immediate
occupation.
Our beautiful Leisure Centre is available
and the pools, gymnasium and library and
lounge area are in use daily. Outside, the
bowling green is very popular along with
Petanque, Mini-golf and Table Bowls.
The residents enjoy an enviable resort style
lifestyle. It is also surprisingly affordable. A
former Christchurch resident, Judith, says
“We couldn’t have all this for what we are
paying if we were still in Christchurch.”
Another resident, David, says “my wife and
chicken pox and measles, was accompanied
by an improvement in the condition with
symptoms either disappearing, or the
conditions were extremely mild and soon
over.
Apple cider vinegar contains all the
goodness of the apple in a form that is
readily accepted by the body. Scientists
have found over 90 different substances
in ACV, among them 20 important trace
elements, minerals, essential enzymes, a
number of different acids including malic
acid, amino acids and roughage in the form
of potash and pectin. A scientific study at
the Shizuka University in Japan has proven
ACV to have potent antioxidant benefits (It
can destroy free radicals, which are a major
factor in ageing.) and also the ACV can

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

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

REAL ESTATE
Live an exceptional lifestyle
84 Harts Creek Lane, Clearwater, Harewood
4 bedrooms | 3 bathrooms | 2 living rooms | 1 office/study | 2 car-garage | Listing # PI48268
Elegant and intelligent design marks this
as a home for an exceptional contemporary
lifestyle. Designed by Architects Plus and
built in 2013, it offers the peace of mind that
comes with post-earthquake construction,
including RibRaft foundation and Celcrete
cladding. Occupying a prime setting, with
lake and golf course views, this tranquil
retreat is just minutes from amenities and
a short stroll from coffee at Clearwater
Resort.
Extensive glazing pulls light and views
into the home, and sliders in the openplan
living ensure seamless flow to a
choice of enticing outdoor entertaining
spaces. Equipped with a six-burner gas
cooktop, butler’s pantry and island bench,
the kitchen will satisfy the most exacting
requirements, while a spacious dining and
casual sitting area, plus additional separate
lounge (with gas fire), offer comfort and
flexibility. Sumptuous fittings in the master
bedroom, ensuite and WIR add everyday
luxury, while an additional downstairs
bedroom with ensuite is ideal for guests.
Three more double bedrooms (or an office/
den option with glorious views to the
mountains) share a smart family bathroom
with under-tile heating. Double internalaccess
garaging plus a generous storage
bay, beautifully landscaped grounds and
a suite of high-spec fittings complete this
impeccable home.
Presented in immaculate condition, this
property invites you to enjoy exceptional
living. The owners have committed to a new
building project and must sell their muchloved
home - don’t miss the opportunity to
make it yours.

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

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

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

This year in ‘Gateway’ Linwood College students have work experience in a wide
range of industries and have been gaining some valuable skills.

Year 13 students, Vanessa Franklin, Amber Taylor-
Jones and Tayla Spence receive certificates for
Advanced Customer Services, achieved through the
Gateway programme.
As the newly appointed Performing
Arts teacher, when I first came to
Linwood College I was quick to see
the wonderful talent that our school
had and sought a musical which our
students and families would enjoy.
Settling on a Maverick Musical called,
‘Wolfstock’ (written by Mary McMahan
with music by Donald Woodward),
this was the perfect challenge for our
students.
With time and practice the students
thrived in this environment and the
end product was exciting, funny and
dynamic. I am exceptionally proud of
my students and the effort that they put
in. To all the parents who transported,
waited, got up super early and gathered
costumes - thank you so much! We
could not have done this without your
support. I can't wait for the next one.

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

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