POLICE FOOT patrols have been<br />

brought in to try and stop youths<br />

brawling near the busy Shirley<br />

and Marshland Rds intersection.<br />

Fifteen youths fought at a bus<br />

stop near Burger King about 3pm<br />

last week, leaving one in hospital<br />

and six facing charges.<br />

Burger King Shirley manager<br />

Tina Sherma has welcomed the<br />

increased police presence.<br />

In the past few months there<br />

have often been up to 10 or 12<br />

youths loitering nearby smoking<br />

and drinking, she said.<br />

Mrs Sherma and her staff were<br />

threatened when they asked<br />

youths to move on.<br />

“I went to talk to them (and)<br />

they said they were going to<br />

chase me to my house and find<br />

Accredited installers 10yr workmanship guarantee 6 yr warranty<br />

out where I live,” she said.<br />

Senior Sergeant Stephan<br />

McDaniel said the problem can<br />

be countered by more policing.<br />

Five units were called to the<br />

brawl last Monday.<br />

The location is a big factor in<br />

causing problems.<br />

“The location (the bus stop) has<br />

a high volume of youths and foot<br />

traffic at that time of the day,” he<br />

said.<br />

Senior Sergeant McDaniel said<br />

the youths fighting last week were<br />

not school students as had been<br />

previously reported.<br />

“It’s not necessarily school kids,<br />

it’s young adults that aren’t going<br />

to school.”<br />

Shirley Vet Clinic employee<br />

Christine O’Keefe said it’s not the<br />

first time something like this has<br />

happened. • Turn to page 5<br />

FROM<br />

THE<br />

EDITOR’S<br />

DESK<br />

WHAT AN election it’s going to<br />

be on Saturday night.<br />

The best and potentially the<br />

closest in many years, and one<br />

which will shape the country’s<br />

future for sometime.<br />

Star Media, publisher of the<br />

<strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong>, will be following<br />

the election on our website www.<br />

star.kiwi and we’ll have reporters<br />

out on the street and bringing<br />

you latest updates through the<br />

afternoon and into the night.<br />

The Star on Thursday will also<br />

have an in-depth election preview.<br />

The polls clearly show people<br />

have shifted to voting for either<br />

National and Labour and this<br />

could spell doom for many<br />

smaller party politicians who<br />

have made it into Parliament on<br />

the back of MMP.<br />

Indications are voter turnout<br />

will be high and which ever party<br />

mobilises its supporters best on<br />

Saturday will win.<br />

In Brief<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

• By Sophie Cornish<br />

THE NEW boardwalk in South<br />

Brighton is set to be finished in<br />

the next couple of weeks.<br />

It will extend from Estuary<br />

Rd, where it meets with Caspian<br />

St, along the edge of the estuary<br />

to a walking track along the<br />

water front of South New<br />

Brighton Park.<br />

The construction by<br />

Bushnell Builders has<br />

been ongoing for about<br />

six weeks, said Tim<br />

Sintes, Coastal-Burwood<br />

Community Board<br />

deputy chairman.<br />

The city council<br />

budgeted $180,000 for the<br />

project.<br />

An upgrade of the<br />

small bridge near the<br />

South Brighton jetty has<br />

also been included in the<br />

construction.<br />

Mr Sintes said there was<br />

Tim Sintes<br />

a lot of excitement over the<br />

boardwalk.<br />

“There’s so much interest out<br />

UPGRADE: A small rail will be put down<br />

both sides of the boardwalk, while the<br />

bridge is also being upgraded by Bushnell<br />

Builders.<br />

Brighton boardwalk almost ready<br />

there, it’s fantastic,” he said.<br />

“We knew people loved it but<br />

when I saw the comments, it<br />

just made me realise how much<br />

it means to so many people,” he<br />

said.<br />

A plan is being formed to<br />

organise an opening day walk<br />

for residents who want to visit<br />

the new boardwalk.<br />

GYM SCHOOL LEASE<br />

The Coastal-Burwood<br />

Community Board will<br />

recommend the city council<br />

grant a new lease to the<br />

Christchurch School of<br />

Gymnastics at QE II Park.<br />

Its current home at QE<br />

II was built in <strong>19</strong>96 and<br />

was badly damaged in the<br />

earthquakes. Rebuilding<br />

on the current site is not a<br />

viable option, according to<br />

geotechnical and engineering<br />

investigations. The school’s<br />

preference is to relocate to a<br />

site in QE II Park where more<br />

favourable land conditions<br />

exist.<br />

BASKETBALL HOOP<br />

The damaged basketball<br />

hoop in the New Brighton<br />

amphitheatre next to<br />

the library on Marine<br />

Pde is set to be repaired<br />

before summer. Coastal-<br />

Burwood Community<br />

Board Chairwoman Kim<br />

Money says the hoop will<br />

be removed and re-installed<br />

with a cherry picker, due to<br />

it’s tall height. City Care have<br />

instructed the community<br />

board it may take between<br />

3-5 weeks.<br />

Garden theft breaks hearts<br />

Kelly Dugan<br />

is the chief<br />

executive and<br />

founder of<br />

SmileDial, a<br />

charity which<br />

helps families<br />

who have a child with an<br />

ongoing medical condition<br />

or disability<br />

Support is provided by<br />

SmileDial to families through<br />

financial aid, advice, counselling<br />

and other activities, which aim to<br />

put a ‘smile on people’s dial’.<br />

Recently, one of the projects,<br />

SmileDial’s different type of<br />

perfect sensory garden, was hit<br />

by thieves for the third time, who<br />

stole trees which were planted by<br />

families.<br />

I want to change the world,<br />

I want to make life easier for<br />

everyone, and I want to make<br />

sure everybody has what they<br />

need, especially families raising<br />

children with special needs.<br />

I decided six years ago that I<br />

would try and provide the support<br />

to others that I was so desperate<br />

for six years ago, when I became<br />

the parent to a child who is a<br />

different type of perfect.<br />

I decided I would not allow<br />

anyone else to feel as alone, scared<br />

and overwhelmed as I did (we<br />

did). So I started a charity called<br />

SmileDial to be there when others<br />

aren’t.<br />

Recently, the media has<br />

discussed the theft of trees from a<br />

sensory garden our charity built<br />

in 2016.<br />

Like everything else, I have the<br />

choice of how I will deal with this.<br />

Yes, there is anger and frustration,<br />

but also there is a sense of<br />

defiance.<br />

I choose to look at the positives,<br />

the people who have offered to<br />

help, the people who have worked<br />

EMPTY:<br />

The site<br />

where<br />

the stolen<br />

citrus<br />

trees<br />

used<br />

to be<br />

planted.<br />

to replace the trees and the many<br />

people who stand with me in<br />

defiance. We will not let a few<br />

idiots ruin something amazing,<br />

something that was created with<br />

love for those who are often<br />

forgotten.<br />

Why should I spend any more<br />

of my energy focusing on the<br />

negative actions of a few and let<br />

them destroy something amazing?<br />

Something built by many for a<br />

few, something created to provide<br />

a special place for all children and<br />

also those people who no longer<br />

carry their children in their arms<br />

but always in their hearts.<br />

I will not talk or write about<br />

those who bring negativity to the<br />

garden, but rather I will celebrate<br />

those who helped create it and<br />

those people who fill the gaps left<br />

by the trees with love.<br />

Readers respond to<br />

the <strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong> article<br />

about there being no<br />

justification for the New<br />

Brighton police station to<br />

be open on Saturdays<br />

Paula Rountree – It is<br />

certainly frustrating when you<br />

want to report something that<br />

requires you to fill out a form<br />

at a police station, or you want<br />

to drop something off (found<br />

item), especially when you<br />

work “office hours” yourself.<br />

Opening Saturday mornings<br />

would be very helpful.<br />

Jen Shortley – But if it’s<br />

open and available for the general<br />

public when they need it,<br />

then they might actually report<br />

crime, which means National’s<br />

claims about the lowest crime<br />

rates wouldn’t be valid. Far<br />

easier to ask people to go all the<br />

way into the station in town<br />

(which they won’t bother doing<br />

for minor stuff) so stats look<br />

good, right? Safer communities<br />

together lol.<br />

Tatia Buckingham – I<br />

can see both sides of this. It’s<br />

hard for the police since . . . the<br />

police funding under National<br />

has been cut and has made<br />

their job so much harder so<br />

adding more hours would need<br />

funding. If they aren’t going<br />

to have it open every day, then<br />

maybe it could be just a shift<br />

of hours so that it is ‘manned’<br />

at the times stats say are most<br />

needed. For example, man it<br />

on Fridays and Saturdays and<br />

close it Sunday and Monday<br />

or Monday and Tuesday. Same<br />

amount of hours just in different<br />

periods of time. The most<br />

high activity times? Don’t live<br />

out there so don’t really know<br />

first-hand, but was just my first<br />

thought.<br />

Peter Maguire – Saturday<br />

is the ideal day for the public to<br />

report minor crimes, drop off<br />

lost property, firearms inquiries<br />

and so many more services the<br />

police provide at a local police<br />

station.<br />

Your usual Monday-Friday,<br />

nine to five worker would<br />

benefit from a Saturday without<br />

the need to travel into central<br />

and find a car park. I’m sure<br />

there are many that would<br />

rather keep or throw away lost<br />

property, than traipse into<br />

central.<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

CONCERN: Youths often loiter near Burger King Shirley.<br />

SLIM CHANCE: The New Brighton police station is unlikely to open on Saturdays.<br />

Nicolas Christopher Pegg<br />

– There is no justification for not<br />

having this station manned 24<br />

hours a day, seven days a week –<br />

look at the crime statistics.<br />

Kieran Frazer – To protect<br />

and serve . . . but not on<br />

Saturdays.<br />

Chrissi Tukaki – The<br />

beatings and burglaries and<br />

criminal activities occur in the<br />

east after 4pm<br />

Gavin Simôn – Police<br />

stations should be attended over<br />

night and after hours when all<br />

the crime usually occurs.<br />

Luke Boyce – Lol, I went<br />

in to report something and a<br />

closed for four days sign was<br />

up. Found stolen passports and,<br />

yes, closed sign was up. Went<br />

in once more and got told to<br />

come back tomorrow as the staff<br />

person had to take a statement<br />

so had to close. Noted an issue<br />

that community policing could<br />

sort – closed. Same issue and<br />

person the next week – still<br />

closed. If you can’t report to<br />

the eastside police station, then<br />

there’s no wonder the stats say<br />

it’s not worth opening<br />

John Walker – No<br />

justification for the station to be<br />

open What they mean is, that<br />

there is no money to pay for it to<br />

be open on weekends.<br />

Benny Fitz – Interesting<br />

term justification. Arguably<br />

the fact that crime is still being<br />

committed justifies a stronger<br />

presence.<br />

Do the crimes need to get<br />

significantly more violent or<br />

costly before police feel there is<br />

justification?<br />

Stephen Dickinson – The<br />

NB police station is a joke.<br />

Every time I’ve needed it, it’s<br />

been closed. Someone smashed<br />

my car in a parking lot, mid-day,<br />

like a year ago (and) was told I<br />

need to go to the police station<br />

for some reason I can’t<br />

remember, but NB was closed so<br />

had to find a way into town with<br />

no car.<br />

More police in bid<br />

to stop street fights<br />

• From page 1<br />

“There have been issues over<br />

the years with school kids<br />

fighting down the alleyway here,<br />

it’s certainly not the first time it’s<br />

happened,” she said.<br />

Ms O’Keefe walked past who<br />

she believed to be the instigators<br />

at lunchtime last Monday and<br />

noticed them drinking.<br />

“They were just starting to act<br />

a bit strange and intimidating<br />

then. Then at about 3pm we<br />

saw them chase a boy onto the<br />

bus and I think that’s when the<br />

bus driver must have called (the<br />

police) to ask for someone to<br />

come down. About half an<br />

hour later it all kicked off,” she<br />

said.<br />

Ms O’Keefe said she has<br />

previously felt intimidated by the<br />

crowds which often congregate<br />

outside Burger King Shirley.<br />

“If you walk past a group of<br />

them, they all watch, and you do<br />

feel intimidated.”<br />

Flying fox<br />

may be<br />

removed<br />

THE CONTROVERSIAL noisy<br />

flying fox at Muka Park in the<br />

Prestons North sub-division may<br />

be removed.<br />

The Coastal-Burwood Community<br />

Board will recommend at<br />

its meeting on October 2 that the<br />

city council remove the flying fox.<br />

After failing to comply with<br />

District Plan noise limits, the flying<br />

fox mechanism was disbanded.<br />

Following this, 488 people<br />

signed a petition for it to stay.<br />

The board then spent $15,000<br />

trialling a quieter flying fox cable<br />

and pulley mechanism. However,<br />

it still did not comply with most<br />

noise limits in the area following<br />

testing in June.<br />

The noise tests indicated the<br />

flying fox was within the acceptable<br />

noise limit for daytime use,<br />

but there was a marginal level of<br />

compliance due to there being a<br />

noticeable “squeak” noise.<br />

Now the board is set to recommend<br />

it be removed and moved to<br />

another park being developed in<br />

the area. Parks being considered<br />

for the flying fox include Kahu<br />

Kiwi Park and the Prestons Park<br />

sub-division.<br />

Woofing down burgers for charity<br />

• By Sophie Cornish<br />

SNAP FITNESS New Brighton’s<br />

manager is eating burgers to save<br />

troubled dogs.<br />

Marce ‘The Tongan Tornado’<br />

Taulango will defend his title<br />

against five other contestants in<br />

the Lower 9th Diner’s burger eating<br />

contest on Saturday.<br />

Mr Taulango has raised money<br />

for charities in the past two<br />

annual events, in spite of the<br />

contest not being for charity.<br />

Competitors will get 5min to<br />

eat as many burgers as possible.<br />

Christchurch Bull Breed Rescue<br />

is the charity chosen by Mr<br />

Taulango this year. It provides<br />

food, shelter and re-homing for<br />

abandoned and rescued bullbreed<br />

dogs.<br />

In 2015, his charity was the<br />

Second Chance Dog Rescue, and<br />

Cure Kids in 2016, where more<br />

than $1200 was raised.<br />

Those making donations can<br />

either pledge money per burger<br />

eaten or make a contribution.<br />

For each burger Mr Taulango<br />

eats, he will raise $104.<br />

“The more I eat, the more I can<br />

help out the charity,” said Mr<br />

Taulango.<br />

Lower 9th Diner is now getting<br />

involved in the charitable act,<br />

MUNCHING: Marce Taulango will be eating burgers to raise<br />

money for bull-breed dogs. If you are interested in adopting<br />

a dog like Reno (above) from Christchurch Bull Breed Rescue,<br />

pledging $10 per burger eaten to<br />

the Cancer Society.<br />

Mr Taulango has won the past<br />

two contests at the diner.<br />

NEW LOCATION ADVERT.pdf 1 1/05/2014 11:51:35 a.m.<br />

“In the first year, I entered and<br />

thought why not try and make<br />

it a charitable event and I ended<br />

up winning, which I didn’t really<br />

expect,” he said.<br />

Mr Taulango is hoping to demolish<br />

10 burgers this year.<br />

Last year, he managed to devour<br />

eight and a half burgers and<br />

six in 2015.<br />

No preparation has been done,<br />

other than training at the gym –<br />

a strategy which has worked for<br />

Mr Taulango in the past.<br />

“I happen to be up against professional<br />

eaters and I just try to<br />

copy their techniques,” he said.<br />

The charity is close to home for<br />

Mr Taulango, who owns a bullbreed<br />

dog himself.<br />

Abbey Vanderplas, founder of<br />

Christchurch Bull Breed Rescue,<br />

started the charity in her own<br />

home and expanded it with the<br />

East impressed with QE II<br />

City councillors<br />

visit complex<br />

building site<br />

• By Sophie Cornish<br />

CITY COUNCILLOR David<br />

East has given progress at<br />

the new QE II site his tick of<br />

approval.<br />

And the Coastal-Burwood<br />

Community Board member has<br />

vowed to be the first to jump in<br />

the pool when it reopens.<br />

Cr East was one of three community<br />

board members who<br />

visited the site last Monday.<br />

The $36.5 million complex,<br />

scheduled to open in May, will<br />

include a 25m lap pool, a 25m<br />

learn-to-swim pool, recreation<br />

pools, a hydro-slide and a fitness<br />

centre.<br />

Cr East was surprised by<br />

the size of the complex, after<br />

some people in the community<br />

criticised it for being “underwhelming”.<br />

There had previously been a<br />

call for the pool to be 50m.<br />

“Long-term, we certainly have<br />

the ability to do it, but it is not in<br />

the city council’s plans to go near<br />

there in the short-term,” Cr East<br />

said.<br />

“Once you are inside, it’s a lot<br />

THUMBS UP: Kim Money, David East and Glenn Livingstone<br />

inside the new QE II complex, which is set to be open in May.<br />

bigger than you perceive. The<br />

pool hall is enormous.”<br />

He said the fitness centre also<br />

takes up a significant space. “You<br />

will revel in the state-of-the-art<br />

and space that is being devoted to<br />

this activity.”<br />

Fellow city councillor and community<br />

board member Glenn<br />

Livingstone and board chairwoman<br />

Kim Money also visited<br />

the site.<br />

FLAME FILES<br />

Don’t fight fire unless<br />

you’re sure to succeed<br />

• By Mark Thomas – specialist fire<br />

investigator<br />

I WENT to the fire on Clifton<br />

Hill, in Sumner, which recently<br />

destroyed most of a home.<br />

There were a few things there<br />

that are worth mentioning.<br />

Firstly, the occupants were in<br />

an unfamiliar house and once<br />

smoke began to restrict visibility<br />

it was fortunate that one of the<br />

group had familiarised himself<br />

with the route to the back door<br />

and was able to herd most of his<br />

family in the right direction.<br />

Secondly, and knowing human<br />

nature, understandably, the<br />

group leader tried to put the fire<br />

out.<br />

It was too advanced at this<br />

stage and all he managed was to<br />

receive very painful burns.<br />

He only evacuated the house<br />

when the smoke was too thick to<br />

breathe.<br />

He very nearly didn’t make it.<br />

I was asked later by media how<br />

the fire grew so large so quickly.<br />

There was nothing unusual<br />

about the fire growth here.<br />

GUTTED: This three-storey house will have to be demolished<br />

after a fire ripped through it. PHOTO: GEOFF SLOAN ​<br />

Modern furniture, made<br />

of plastics, foams and nylon,<br />

provides a huge reserve of fuel,<br />

allowing much faster fire growth<br />

than was normal 50 years ago.<br />

Using the word fuel is very<br />

appropriate because all of those<br />

materials originate in oil. And<br />

burn accordingly.<br />

Anywhere you stay, home, motel,<br />

cabin or hotel room, ensure<br />

there is smoke detection.<br />

If there’s heavy smoke the<br />

cleanest air will be at the lowest<br />

point.<br />

Get down, get low and get out.<br />

Don’t try to fight the fire unless<br />

you’re absolutely sure you will<br />

succeed.<br />

Get out, get your family out,<br />

shut doors as you leave and<br />

phone 111 from a safe place.<br />

Beach clean-up<br />

on this weekend<br />

• By Sophie Cornish<br />

THE NEW Brighton Beach<br />

clean-up will happen for the<br />

second year in a row on Sunday.<br />

The event will take place<br />

between 10am and noon and<br />

is run by organiser Ariana<br />

Wilkins.<br />

Mrs Wilkins is a volunteer<br />

who organised the event last<br />

year because of her love for the<br />

environment.<br />

“I just wanted to do something<br />

community minded and I’m<br />

really passionate about the environment<br />

so it was a win-win,”<br />

Mrs Wilkins said.<br />

Last year about 400 people<br />

attended the event.<br />

This year the Facebook event<br />

has attracted interest from more<br />

ORGANISERS:<br />

Ariana and Geoff<br />

Wilkins at the<br />

beach clean-up<br />

last year.<br />

than 1000 people.<br />

City council will help to<br />

remove the rubbish and supply<br />

gloves and rubbish bags.<br />

A sausage sizzle and face<br />

painting will be at the event,<br />

along with spot prizes donated<br />

by local businesses such as<br />

Shirley Boys’ High School basketball coach Scott<br />

Howell evaluates his team’s performance at the<br />

South Island tournament which booked them a spot<br />

at nationals in Palmerston North next month<br />

OUR SENIOR A team – the<br />

Shirley Spartans – travelled<br />

to Dunedin to compete in the<br />

zone 4 South Island qualifying<br />

tournament.<br />

Our top six finish at this<br />

tournament has allowed us to<br />

attend the secondary schools<br />

national tournament in<br />

Palmerston North in October.<br />

Our first game on day one was<br />

against a solid Nayland College<br />

team, and we had a good win<br />

76-59.<br />

Our second game of the day<br />

was against a young Kaiapoi<br />

High School team. Our<br />

experience and depth led to a<br />

one-sided 106-42 win.<br />

Day two had us facing off<br />

against the two strongest<br />

teams in our pool. Coming up<br />

against Canterbury champions<br />

Cashmere High in the first game<br />

of the day was always going to be<br />

tough. The team put up a solid<br />

fight and showed some heart<br />

in the first half, but Cashmere<br />

proved too strong in the second<br />

half and the final score was 53-93<br />

to Cashmere.<br />

The second game of the day<br />

against Otago Boys’ High was<br />

do-or-die for us. If we lost we<br />

would lose our chance to go to<br />

nationals. Otago came out strong<br />

at the start of the game and were<br />

leading by nine at the end of the<br />

first quarter. Luckily for us, over<br />

the next three quarters we played<br />

some of the best basketball we<br />

had played all season.<br />

After leading comfortably<br />

during the last quarter, we had a<br />

few scares as the Otago guards<br />

hit a barrage of three-pointers,<br />

but luckily we showed composure<br />

and finished the game off,<br />

eventually winning 106-99. Sean<br />

Kelly played his best game of the<br />

tournament and led from the<br />

front for the entire 40min. He<br />

scored an impressive 36 points.<br />

He had strong support in scoring<br />

from our trio of big bodies – Joel<br />

Jeffrey (22pts), Josh Thomson<br />

(14pts) and Loyal Patelesio<br />

(10pts). This game was easily our<br />

best of the tournament.<br />

On day three, we finished off<br />

the last game of pool play by<br />

comfortably beating St Thomas’<br />

96-56. This was another game<br />

were everyone played good<br />

minutes and all 11 players<br />

contributed on the score sheet.<br />

Our quarter-final match-up<br />

later in the day was against<br />

the No 1 seed from pool A –<br />

Rangiora High. This game was<br />

important because, if we won,<br />

we were guaranteed a spot at<br />

nationals. The final score was a<br />

hard fought 77-60 win to Shirley.<br />

Our semi-final match-up had<br />

us playing one of the tournament<br />

favourites in Christ’s College. The<br />

boys came into this game with<br />

a lot of belief and were leading<br />

32-30 at the end of half-time.<br />

Unfortunately, we ran out of<br />

steam in the second half and<br />

the big minutes played by our<br />

key boys caught up with us. Silly<br />

mistakes and a lot of missed<br />

shots, combined with a lift in<br />

intensity by Christ’s in the second<br />

half, led to a one-sided second<br />

half. After leading at half-time we<br />

went down 45-70.<br />

Our last game of the<br />

tournament was a play-off for<br />

third and fourth against Waimea<br />

College.<br />

We desperately wanted to come<br />

third and came out strong in this<br />

game. The boys didn’t let up the<br />

whole game and for the third<br />

time in the tournament, all 11<br />

players contributed on the score<br />

sheet.<br />

The game turned into a<br />

runaway win for Shirley and the<br />

final score of 91-47 reflected this.<br />

It was a successful tournament<br />

for the Shirley Spartans.<br />

Everyone involved was pleased<br />

with our third place finish in the<br />

South Island. Now the boys look<br />

ahead to nationals. This will be<br />

a great experience for the entire<br />

team and should give them an<br />

idea of where we are ranked<br />

amongst the top 24 teams in the<br />

country.<br />

A big thank you to Nat Connell<br />

who put a lot of time and effort<br />

into the team over the year.<br />

Special thanks also to Russell<br />

Stocks, our teacher in charge<br />

of basketball, who was team<br />

manager and worked hard to<br />

get us into the tournament and<br />

cooked the team some delicious<br />

meals. Thanks as well to all the<br />

Wainoni club‘s young<br />

boxers take out titles<br />

• By Andrew King<br />

IZYAH HESP and Daniel Meehan of the<br />

Smiling Tigers Boxing Club won titles at<br />

the New Zealand Boxing Championships<br />

last week.<br />

It was an all-Canterbury affair in the<br />

cadet under-57kg category with Meehan,<br />

14, squaring off against 12-year-old<br />

Hamuera Tainui from the Woolston<br />

Boxing Club.<br />

Meehan won with a split decision and<br />

said he was proud of the way he fought but<br />

there was room for improvement.<br />

“It was alright, it wasn’t my best fight. I<br />

can definitely improve. It was good to get<br />

experience and see how it is in different<br />

areas,” he said.<br />

Aranui’s Hesp, 12, won the cadet under-<br />

50kg title and said it was a great step towards<br />

his dream of an international career.<br />

“I was happy to make my family proud.<br />

It was a good experience,” he said.<br />

Fighters from the Wainoni-based<br />

Smiling Tigers Boxing Club had a solid<br />

showing at the event, which ran from<br />

Monday to Friday last week, with a<br />

number of others just missing out on titles.<br />

Sam Burdett-Clark, 29, was runner-up<br />

in the under-64kg category, and Jarrod<br />

Gear-Ngatai, 16, was runner-up in the<br />

under-70kg junior category.<br />

Wiremu Herbert, 26, lost in the semifinal<br />

of the under-64kg category, and<br />

Harry Waters, 24, lost in the semi-final of<br />

the under-69kg elite category.<br />

Canterbury Boxing Association team<br />

manager Holly Sullivan said it was one of<br />

the “greenest” teams they have taken to the<br />

national championships in quite a while.<br />

The Canterbury team were awarded the<br />

Malcolm Treston Shield for the most wins<br />

at the competition.<br />

the eight students got involved<br />

at the school cafe, serving food<br />

and running the cash register<br />

for their community engagement<br />

section.<br />

He said the tramping element<br />

challenged them the most.<br />

About 70-80km were walked by<br />

the students.<br />

“There’s the tangible stuff, it<br />

goes on their CV and it shows<br />

prospective employers that during<br />

school life they didn’t just<br />

take basketball or touch, they<br />

did something more extreme<br />

like putting a pack on your<br />

back during adverse weather<br />

and tramping a whole pile of<br />

kilometres.”<br />

Marian College’s Caitlin<br />

Fleming, year 11, who has highfunctioning<br />

down syndrome,<br />

received a silver award.<br />

Caitlin completed a two-day<br />

tramp in Springfield, where she<br />

experienced river crossings and<br />

learnt how to make food on a<br />

Community involvement<br />

at Burwood Hospital, charity<br />

helped Caitlin take out the<br />

award.<br />

Ensuring a safe work place<br />

Learning first aid is not only a part of ensuring a safe<br />

work place, but also an integral part of our engagement with the<br />

wider community. We all learn the necessary skills to ensure that<br />

in times of emergency we are able to assist our work colleagues,<br />

but are we able to take these skills home, into the community or<br />

on to the sports field?<br />

not all work places are the same and the injury risk for each place<br />

can be wide and variable. The office attended by administrators<br />

does not carry the same risk as those people working with heavy<br />

machinery, or perhaps at some distance from a regular ambulance<br />

service. it is therefore essential that you pick the right first aid<br />

course to suit all of your activities – both professional and social.<br />

take, for example, an office worker who does not have a high<br />

risk work environment and whose concern might be to ensure that<br />

they can deal with minor cuts and superficial injuries, or the ability<br />

to perform effective CPr. These skills can be achieved on a course<br />

of eight hours duration and would generally fit into low to medium<br />

risk area. But take this same person on to a sports field either as a<br />

spectator or player when a higher level injury occurs. The eight<br />

hour course covering unit standards 6402 and 6401 (or 26551 and<br />

26552) does not cover head neck and spinal injuries, eye injuries,<br />

hypothermia and poisonings.<br />

The majority of injuries occur outside of the work place, in<br />

fact one in three injuries occurs in the home, making it the most<br />

common place for injuries to happen. new Zealand children<br />

are twice as likely to die through injury as children who live in<br />

australia. They mostly die as a result of motor vehicles accidents<br />

or falls in the home. fatalities from leisure and sport are not far<br />

behind those in the workplace.<br />

The wider 12 hour course teaches the additional unit standard<br />

6400 and provides a wide knowledge base for medium to high risk<br />

environments. This course covers many of the skills required to<br />

deal with the most common injuries, such as falls (which can result<br />

in head, neck and spinal injuries) and dealing with complex scenes<br />

such as motor vehicle accidents.<br />

if you are not sure on the course best suited to your needs, ask<br />

your accredited first aid training provider. They can explain the<br />

course content and give you options that will best suit your needs.<br />

Look beyond the workplace and consider your family and your<br />

location. Check that you have a good quality first aid kit that is<br />

up-to-date with replenished items, and that everyone knows where<br />

it is located.<br />

GREAT food<br />

BROUGHT TO YOU BY...<br />

Your fresh food people<br />

TOMATO AND MOZZARELLA<br />

WITH CRUMBED<br />

EGGPLANT<br />

Ingredients<br />

1 Eggplant, sliced into 1cm<br />

rounds<br />

2 Eggs, lightly whisked and<br />

seasoned<br />

1 cup Breadcrumbs<br />

¼ cup Chopped fresh herbs, e.g.<br />

parsley or chives<br />

1 bottle Oil, enough for cooking<br />

eggplant<br />

2 cups Tomatoes, sliced or<br />

chopped<br />

2 whole Mozzarella cheese<br />

1 cup Basil leaves<br />

1 drizzle Lemon-infused olive<br />

oil, to serve<br />

Directions<br />

Firstly crumb the eggplant. Dip<br />

into seasoned egg, then roll into<br />

the breadcrumbs and parsley<br />

combined in another bowl. Set<br />

aside in the fridge until ready to<br />

cook.<br />

Into a frying pan pour a little<br />

oil. Fry the eggplant on a medium<br />

heat to ensure they cook<br />

right through, turning once to<br />

brown both sides.<br />

Onto a platter, place the eggplant,<br />

tomatoes, torn mozzarella,<br />

basil and salt and pepper. Drizzle<br />

over the lemon infused olive oil<br />

then serve.<br />

MOZZARELLA AND PESTO<br />

SCHNITZEL PARCELS<br />

Ingredients<br />

1 Salt & freshly ground pepper,<br />

to season<br />

8 slices Beef schnitzel<br />

250g Mozzarella cheese, sliced<br />

¼ cup Basil pesto<br />

1 Tbsp Olive oil<br />

Directions<br />

Season schnitzel with salt<br />

and pepper and lay on a work<br />

surface. Arrange two slices of<br />

mozzarella on one half of each<br />

schnitzel and top each with a<br />

heaped teaspoon of pesto.<br />

Fold the empty side of each<br />

schnitzel over to cover the filling<br />

and secure by threading<br />

two toothpicks through each<br />

schnitzel parcel. Heat a non-stick<br />

frying pan, add a film of oil and<br />

place schnitzel parcels in the<br />

pan. Cook over a medium heat<br />

for 2 to 3min on each side, or<br />

until browned on both sides and<br />

cheese has melted.<br />

SWEET ORANGE, DATE AND<br />

MINT SALAD<br />

Ingredients<br />

½ cup Freshly squeezed orange<br />

juice<br />

1 Lemon<br />

3 Tbsp Honey, mild<br />

4 Navel oranges<br />

3 Mint leaves<br />

8 Dates, moist<br />

2 tsp Orange blossom water,<br />

optional<br />

Directions<br />

Put the juices (orange and<br />

juice of one lemon) and honey<br />

into a small pot and gently bring<br />

to the boil. Simmer until reduced<br />

by a third. Cool.<br />

Place an orange on a board<br />

and use a sharp serrated knife<br />

to cut a slice off each end. Stand<br />

the orange on one end and cut<br />

off all the rind and pith. Lay the<br />

orange on its side and cut into<br />

thin slices. Place the slices in a<br />

shallow bowl. Repeat with the<br />

remaining oranges, laying the<br />

mint leaves among the orange<br />

slices.<br />

Stone the dates and cut into<br />

chunks. Pile on top of the orange<br />

slices. Add the optional orange<br />

blossom water to the syrup and<br />

pour over the salad. If possible,<br />

set aside for an hour before<br />

serving.<br />

The Tree of LIFE<br />

New research on Gingko<br />

Biloba excites researchers!<br />

GO-Advanced<br />

Omega-PC<br />

For decades scientists believed brain<br />

damage with age, after a stroke or injury<br />

was irreversible and brain neurons could<br />

not be repaired. In more recent times, new<br />

research has shown that neurons can grow<br />

back with the right conditions and that a<br />

special extract of Gingko Biloba (EGb-761<br />

or TEBONIN) has been clinically found to<br />

assist in this. The implications for stroke<br />

recovery are obvious, but researchers also<br />

know many of us suffer from undetected<br />

“micro-strokes” that over a period of time<br />

slowly reduce our cognitive function.<br />

TEBONIN is prescribed worldwide as a<br />

natural supportive agent for a healthy brain<br />

and cognitive function. It supports healthy<br />

mental performance, concentration, focus,<br />

alertness, motor function and to help<br />

with many conditions including tinnitus<br />

(ringing and noise in the ears), vertigo<br />

and normal balance. TEBONIN improves<br />

BOOST BRAIN<br />

PERFORMANCE UP TO 30%<br />

TEBONIN is the No 1 Ginkgo Biloba extract in the World with more than 8 million tablets<br />

being consumed every day. It is also the most researched herbal extract with more than 60<br />

controlled clinical studies & over 400 scientific studies. It has been shown to have excellent<br />

efficacy, safety & tolerability. Millions of consumers have trusted TEBONIN for over 30<br />

years to support blood flow, capillary health, brain health & performance.<br />

Studies on TEBONIN Show:<br />

- Improved Brain Performance & Function up to 30%. This includes improvement<br />

in mental sharpness, focus, attention, concentration, understanding, memory & recall.<br />

- Reduces errors made & mental stress.<br />

- The only Ginkgo shown to increase activity in all areas of the brain. Can help restore<br />

brain function after a brain injury such as from a stroke.<br />

- Helps relieve tinnitus (ringing & noise in the ears), vertigo, dizziness & supports normal<br />

balance.<br />

- Improves blood flow to all areas of the body.<br />

- Reduces plaque formation in the blood vessels.<br />

- Protective effect against eyes damage caused by light.<br />

micro-circulation and helps the blood flow<br />

reach those critical places it needs to get to.<br />

It is a potent anti-oxidant and makes the<br />

red blood cells more pliable and capillary<br />

walls more flexible.<br />

TEBONIN is one of the most widely<br />

studied and researched herbal products in<br />

the world and is the only Ginkgo biloba<br />

extract manufactured via a patented multistep<br />

extraction process. Each small tablet<br />

contains a highly concentrated 50:1 extract<br />

to give you a therapeutic clinical dose<br />

without having to take a large amount of<br />

the herb. Of 25 Gingko biloba products on<br />

the market, and tested by a major medical<br />

journal, only TEBONIN passed all five of the<br />

test requirements. Ten brands didn’t meet<br />

any requirements and the rest didn’t pass<br />

more than three out of five requirements.<br />

TEBONIN is the only Gingko biloba<br />

extract shown to activate all areas of the<br />

brain and is considered the gold standard<br />

in Gingko. TEBONIN has been trusted by<br />

millions of consumers worldwide for over<br />

30 years with more than 8,000,000 tablets<br />

consumed each day.<br />

TEBONIN and further information<br />

Health BUT are lost in other brands of fish oil due to the less natural manufacturing processes used!<br />

GO-ADVANCED OMEGA-PC SETS NEW STANDARDS IN FISH OIL!<br />

Omega-3 fish oil normally contains the vital Omega-3 fatty acids in a triglyceride form. Fish however naturally<br />

contain Omega-3 in a triglyceride & phospholipid form but until recently the phospholipid form was lost due to the<br />

manufacturing process. GO OMEGA-PC is produced using a new more natural cold extraction process that better<br />

preserves the natural nutrient profile found in fish. Studies show GO OMEGA-PC offers superior absorption with<br />

increased omega-3 fatty acids in organs giving the potential for more health benefits.<br />

shown in research<br />

It is well known how important omega-3<br />

fatty acids are to good health. It is estimated<br />

most people don’t even get a third of the<br />

recommended omega-3 fatty acids on<br />

a weekly basis. Countries with a higher<br />

amounts of omega-3 in their diet are known<br />

to have lower cardiovascular disease and, in<br />

many cases, better overall health.<br />

Recent research has shown inflammation<br />

to be a big part of disease and the ageing<br />

process.<br />

Fish oil can help reduce inflammation<br />

by providing essential fatty acids required<br />

by the body to heal itself and maintain<br />

good health. Until now most fish oil<br />

only contained omega-3 fatty acids in<br />

triglyceride form. Fish, however, naturally<br />

contain omega-3 in triglyceride and<br />

phospholipid form but until recently the<br />

phospholipid form was lost due to the<br />

manufacturing process.<br />

GO-Advanced Omega-PC sets new<br />

standards in fish oil as it contains<br />

omega-3 attached to both triglycerides<br />

and phospholipids. Studies have shown<br />

GO-Advanced Omega-PC to be far better<br />

absorbed, leading to increased levels of<br />

vital omega-3 fatty acids in the organs<br />

through giving the potential for more<br />

health benefits.<br />

GO-Advanced Omega-PC is produced<br />

from fresh wild deep sea cold water fish<br />

using a new advanced and more natural<br />

cold extraction process that better preserves<br />

the natural nutrient profile found in fish. It<br />

is manufactured to high GMP standards<br />

and is molecularly distilled to remove any<br />

containments, toxins and heavy metals.<br />

Further info on this revolutionary new<br />

fish oil and its benefits is available from<br />

KIDSTUFF<br />

Lindisfarne Nursery School<br />

Lindisfarne Nursery School was<br />

established by Tricia Cuthbert in <strong>19</strong>87 and<br />

remains part of the Cuthbert family today.<br />

We are committed to Christchurch, to our<br />

community, our Lindisfarne families, and<br />

most importantly the futures<br />

and happiness of our children.<br />

We believe in developing<br />

children’s feelings of self-worth,<br />

and encouraging tolerance and<br />

understanding of others.<br />

Our teachers all hold a<br />

Diploma of Teaching in Early<br />

Childhood, and one holds a<br />

Diploma of Teaching in Primary<br />

as well as early childhood. She<br />

prepares the four year olds for<br />

school through an informal<br />

and brief daily ‘lesson’ time<br />

which the children love to take<br />

part in.<br />

We have a separate nursery<br />

with an outdoor area where the<br />

children discover and explore.<br />

We are a strong multi-cultural<br />

centre with committed teachers<br />

who embrace and celebrate<br />

diversity for our families.<br />

Morning and afternoon tea and a cooked<br />

lunch are provided, and we welcome<br />

visitors.<br />

Check us out at www.lindisfarnenursery.<br />

Kids love CASPA!<br />

A child who’s ‘a<br />

little different’<br />

Children who are just ‘a little different’ – perhaps they’re<br />

clumsy, have difficulty writing or tying shoelaces, or<br />

prone to ‘meltdowns’, and struggle to fit in.<br />

To interpret and function in the world<br />

we need to accurately process information<br />

from our environment.<br />

Some children’s nervous systems<br />

may receive, sort and use information<br />

inaccurately (sensory processing) causing<br />

them to either under or over reaction to<br />

a sensation, or actively seek or avoid a<br />

sensation.<br />

This may cause distress for the<br />

child, family and teachers,<br />

as coping with everyday<br />

experiences like<br />

noisy classrooms,<br />

the feel of fabric,<br />

or moving in a<br />

coordinated way<br />

may present huge<br />

challenges. It can<br />

influence behaviour<br />

and interfere with<br />

learning, doing<br />

everyday activities or<br />

simply fitting in.<br />

No child is the<br />

same, each have<br />

their own individual<br />

difficulties.<br />

Therapy Professionals Therapists<br />

may be able to help improve the life<br />

of these children and those around<br />

them. Contact us at 3775280 or<br />

www.therapyprofessionals.co.nz.<br />

CASPA (Creative After School<br />

Programmed Activities) incorporating<br />

PAPA JACKS offers children the<br />

opportunity to be creative, make new<br />

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

safe, nurturing environment. CASPA offers<br />

working parents an affordable after school<br />

and school holiday programme that their<br />

kids just love!<br />

CASPA attributes its success to the<br />

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

convenience and affordability for parents.<br />

CASPA kids enjoy an exciting range of<br />

activities including sports, music, games,<br />

drama, arts and craft as well as fun trips.<br />

Previous themes and activities have included<br />

a Karaoke Dance Party, CASPA Fear Factor,<br />

Healthy Art, Out of Africa and hundreds of<br />

other amazing themes/activities!<br />

CASPA parents enjoy peace of mind,<br />

knowing their kids are safe and enjoying<br />

the benefits of a quality after school<br />

programme. Some parents and caregivers<br />

also enjoy government subsidies for<br />

CASPA. CASPA is Child Youth and Family<br />

approved for the OSCAR Subsidy and in<br />

some circumstances, the full CASPA fee<br />

will be covered by the subsidy.<br />

REAL ESTATE<br />

Ready to Move!<br />

15 Caleb Place, Northwood<br />

3 bedrooms | 2 bathrooms | 2 toilets | 1 living room | 1 dining room | 1 office/study | 2 car-garage | 2 off-street parks | Listing Number PI48339<br />

The call to be closer to family is very<br />

strong. Be quick to view this immaculate<br />

and appealing modern 211.95m 2 home,<br />

built in 2005. It has been carefully<br />

maintained to offer a relaxed lifestyle in<br />

a superb location. Situated in a quiet, noexit<br />

street, across the road from walking<br />

trails in leafy Styx Mill Reserve, a close<br />

walk to supermarket and shops, and a<br />

short drive to Northlands or the CBD.<br />

Manicured gardens and timeless<br />

brick construction offer an elegant<br />

first impression and a skylight over<br />

the entrance creates a light and bright<br />

welcome. A northwest aspect ensures<br />

the open-plan living and dining is sunny<br />

and warm, and French doors opening to<br />

decking on two sides make the most of<br />

the magical outdoor living. A breakfast<br />

bar separates a well-appointed kitchen,<br />

which boasts a double wall oven, two<br />

dish-drawers and gas cooktop. The<br />

separate lounge adds further flexibility,<br />

and is an elegant and tranquil space with<br />

leafy views through the feature windows<br />

and a gas fire for cosy ambience. Light and<br />

inviting, the master bedroom includes an<br />

ensuite, while two more double bedrooms<br />

and an office (or 4th bedroom) share a<br />

family bathroom. A double internalaccess<br />

garage is a practical plus, while<br />

the fully fenced and landscaped gardens<br />

include irrigation and a choice of outdoor<br />

living.<br />

Beautifully presented and loaded with<br />

extras, including solar water heating<br />

(with gas boost) and attic storage in the<br />

ceiling, it’s clear that this is a much-loved<br />

home, but the vendor is determined to<br />

move closer to family and has committed<br />

to selling.<br />

Daughter of Gloriavale<br />

My Life in a Religious Cult<br />

By Lilia Tarawa<br />

This personal account, Lilia Tarawa exposes the shocking<br />

secrets of the cult, with its rigid rules and oppressive<br />

control of women. She describes her fear when her<br />

family questioned Gloriavale’s beliefs and practices.<br />

When her parents fled with their children, Lilia was forced<br />

to make a desperate choice: to stay or to leave. No<br />

matter what she chose, she would lose people she<br />

loved. In the outside world, Lilia struggled. Would she<br />

be damned to hell for leaving? How would she learn<br />

to navigate this strange place called ‘the world’? And<br />

would she ever find out the truth about the criminal<br />

convictions against her grandfather.<br />

What Am I Supposed<br />

To Eat?<br />

By Libby Weaver<br />

For so many people today, food is complicated.<br />

They’re told to make `healthy’ choices yet this could<br />

include anything from an apple to a packet of<br />

sugar-free biscuits. They have lost touch with how<br />

much to eat, how often and how their food choices<br />

are impacting on their health - and then there are<br />

those all-consuming moments when they feel like<br />

no amount of food could satisfy their hungry hearts.<br />

The latest book by ten times number one best-selling<br />

author Dr Libby Weaver, What am I Supposed to Eat?,<br />

puts the reader back in control of their food choices.<br />

Sweet<br />

By yotam Ottolenghi<br />

There’s nothing like a perfectly light sponge<br />

flavoured with spices and citrus or an icing-sugardusted<br />

cookie to raise the spirits and create a<br />

moment of pure joy.’ In his stunning new baking<br />

and desserts cookbook Yotam Ottolenghi and<br />

his long-time collaborator Helen Goh bring the<br />

Ottolenghi... read more hallmarks of fresh, evocative<br />

ingredients, exotic spices and complex flavourings.<br />

Sweet includes over 110 innovative recipes. There is<br />

something here to delight everyone - from simple<br />

recipes parents can make with their children to<br />

showstopping layer cakes and roulades that will<br />

reignite the imaginations of accomplished bakers.<br />

Meet the Team<br />

Paul Perry - Owner<br />

Paul has a very extensive 42 years’ experience in the Collision<br />

Repair Industry. In <strong>19</strong>75 Paul completed his apprenticeship<br />

with “Farmers” (whom were later bought out by Blackwells).<br />

Paul continued to work for Blackwells until 2007 when he<br />

decided to find something more challenging for himself. In<br />

2007 Paul broadened his abilities and began working for<br />

Truck Worx doing structural repairs on Commercial Trucks<br />

until he decided to find work closer to home.<br />

Paul was employed by Terry Stevenson Collision Repairs at<br />

the end of 2007, which he then went on to purchase with his<br />

wife Shanel in 2016, which is when QEII Collision Repairs Ltd<br />

was established. During this time, Paul has acquired his I-Car<br />

Recognition Silver Certificate in <strong>2017</strong>.<br />

Gary De Pina<br />

Gary is the go-to-guy when it comes to anything involving the<br />

Collision Repair Industry after 34 years in the trade. Gary completed<br />

his apprenticeship as a refinisher/painter at Motor Inn Panel Beaters<br />

(which Hammonds then bought out in <strong>19</strong>90) in <strong>19</strong>87 before moving<br />

on to Nui Ngakau in 2002 as a tutor, training students for the<br />

Collision Repair Industry, for 18 months. In late 2003 Gary took up<br />

the role of Shop Manager at New Brighton Panel Beaters for 8 years<br />

but due to the 2011 February Earthquakes this business ceased<br />

trading. Gary then took up the role as estimator for Terry Stevenson<br />

Panel Beaters for a period before moving on to Ferrymead Panel<br />

and Paint as estimator, as well. As of 2016, Gary returned to QEII<br />

Collision Repairs Ltd (previously Terry Stevenson Panel Beaters) as<br />

Manager and has since achieved his Platinum Certificate.<br />

Victoria Tiopira<br />

Victoria was employed by Terry Stevenson Panel Beaters when she was 14<br />

in 2011, while she was still at school during the holidays, as a car detailer<br />

& shop labourer. Spring of 2012 Victoria moved to Hokitika and went<br />

on to work at the Hokitika Glass Studio when she decided to add a little<br />

adventure to her life while she was still young. In 2013 Victoria decided to<br />

return to Christchurch to make NCEA her main priority alongside working at<br />

McDonalds Part-Time. Victoria completed NCEA Level 1, 2 & 3 by 2015 and<br />

decided to leave school early and continue working at McDonalds Fulltime.<br />

Victoria had a gorgeous little boy in 2016 and decided shift work didn’t suit<br />

her family anymore and went on to work as a telemarketing representative<br />

for a few months. Telemarketing wasn’t what she enjoyed so she left and<br />

returned to QEII Collision Repairs Ltd (previously Terry Stevenson Panel<br />

Beaters) as a Car Detailer & Shop Labourer and eventually was promoted<br />

into the role of Financial Administrator at the beginning of <strong>2017</strong>.<br />

Shanel Tiopira - Owner<br />

Shanel has worked behind the scenes of the Collision Repair Industry for 14 years as a Business<br />

Administrator and the past year as Administrator/Business Owner of QEII Collision Repairs Ltd. In<br />

<strong>19</strong>88 Shanel began working for Kmart Hastings in the Retail service sector before acquiring her<br />

Diploma of Business & Management in <strong>19</strong>90 and moving to Christchurch to continue working at<br />

Kmart Riccarton as a Trainee Manager. By <strong>19</strong>92 Shanel had been promoted to Manager at Kmart<br />

Riccarton, Papatoeoe, The Palms Shirley stores and again Riccarton when she decided that she<br />

wanted a change out of the retail scene. In 2001 Shanel moved on to iDispatch where she became<br />

supervisor in Communications. (This was the same year she also met her husband Paul Perry who is<br />

currently also her Business Partner at QEII Collision Repairs Ltd.) In 2003 Shanel went to visit Hubby<br />

at work (Terry Stevenson Panel Beaters) for lunch and she hasn’t left the Collision Repair Industry<br />

since. After working 2 jobs for a year she decided she wanted to continue working in the Collision<br />

Repair Industry and stepped back from iDispatch in 2004. When the opportunity arose to purchase<br />

the business, Shanel & Paul took the opportunity and established QEII Collision Repairs Ltd in 2016.<br />

Nikkola De Pina<br />

Nikky works<br />

part-time for QEII<br />

Collision Repairs in<br />

administration as well<br />

the lovely wife of Gary<br />

De Pina and has 20+<br />

David Woodham<br />

Joshua Skinner<br />

In 2007 Josh decided his passion<br />

of cars was enough to pursue<br />

a career in the Collision Repair<br />

Industry and completed his Panel<br />

& Paint Pre-Trade through SIT,<br />

Wigram. Josh was employed by<br />

Terry Stevenson Panel Beaters<br />

at the beginning of 2016 as a<br />

Car Groomer/Labourer before<br />

being offered a MITO Refinishing/<br />

Painting Apprenticeship at the<br />

beginning of <strong>2017</strong> with QEII<br />

Collision Repairs Ltd.<br />

Dave has 30 years Panel Beating experience behind him and continues to upskill his<br />

knowledge in the Collision Repair Industry to achieve his Bronze Certificate. In <strong>19</strong>78<br />

Dave undertook his Panel Beating Apprenticeship at Chassis Repairs Christchurch before<br />

venturing off into the world travelling & working overseas in <strong>19</strong>84 for 3 years. On return,<br />

Dave went back to contract Panel Beating for Chassis Repairs until <strong>19</strong>99. After 12 years<br />

of Panel Beating Dave decided he wanted a complete change of scenery, so he moved on<br />

to sales for 6 years. When returning to the Collision Repair Industry, Dave worked for Atkin<br />

Collision Repairs before being employed by Terry Stevenson Panel Beaters in 2015 and<br />

was then offered a position at QEII Collision Repairs Ltd in June 2016.<br />

Leofard Galacia<br />

Leofard graduated high school in the Philippines in <strong>19</strong>95 and had already<br />

decided to pursue a career in the Collision Repair Industry. Leo gained his<br />

Spray Painting and Panel Beating Certificate while still at high school and<br />

began work immediately at the Mercedes Benz Factory in the Philippines. Leo<br />

worked here for 4 years before moving on to work for the Toyota Factory, also<br />

in the Philippines for another 8 years. Following this, Leo transferred to another<br />

Toyota Factory in Qatar for another 8 years before deciding to move to New<br />

Zealand in 2014. In 2014 Leo was taken under the wing by Terry Stevenson<br />

Panel Beaters as a Spray Painter before continuing his contract with QEII<br />

Collision Repairs Ltd in 2016.<br />

Steve Hearne<br />

Steve began his journey through<br />

the Collision Repair Industry in<br />

<strong>19</strong>91 at Prestine Panel & Paint<br />

where he started his Spray Painting<br />

Apprenticeship. A year later, Steve<br />

transferred to City Panel & Paint<br />

as a refinisher for 3 years. In <strong>19</strong>96<br />

Steve took over the business and<br />

established “Steve’s Autospray”. Steve<br />

went on to expand his family in <strong>19</strong>98<br />

and a lot of time goes in to running<br />

such a big business so he decided<br />

to let it go and became a manager<br />

at Auto Body Refinishers for 3 years.<br />

Until present, Steve has offered his<br />

expertise of Spray Painting to various<br />

business’ before coming to work for<br />

QEII Collision Repairs Ltd in 2016 as a<br />

Spray Painter.<br />

Wilfredo Salazaar<br />

Wilfredo has worked in many different environments<br />

of the Collision Repair Industry over the past 29 years.<br />

Wilfredo graduated high school in <strong>19</strong>88 with a Panel<br />

Beating Certificate and went on to work for multiple<br />

Panel Beating businesses in the Philippines for a<br />

period of years, the longest being 6 years at a Nissan<br />

Dealership. Wilfredo then wanted to develop more<br />

knowledge in the Collision Repair Industry so moved<br />

his sights on to Panel Beating in Saudi Arabia for 6<br />

years. With such an intense lifestyle, Wilfredo wished to<br />

find somewhere more comfortable to work and moved<br />

to New Zealand in 2015 where he was hired by Terry<br />

Stevenson Panel Beaters. Wilfredo then went on to<br />

continue working for QEII Collision Repairs Ltd in 2016.<br />

QEII Collision Repairs<br />

QEII Collision Repairs Limited was established in June 2016 by Shanel Tiopira and Paul<br />

Perry after taking over a previously established Collision Repair Shop. QEII Collision Repairs<br />

Ltd are active members of the Collision Repair Association (CRA) as well as the Motor Trade<br />

Association (MTA) and are respected, approved repairers to various Insurance Companies<br />

including but not limited to IAG, Tower, AMI, Lumley, NZI, NAC, State and Lantern<br />

Insurance. To retain a contract as an approved repairer with Insurance companies, requires<br />

the business to maintain a certain amount of training through approved training agencies<br />

for all staff. Thanks to I-Car as well as MTA, QEII Collision Repairs Ltd has successfully<br />

assisted two employees reach a goal of a Silver Certificate and Platinum Certificate over the<br />

past year. We would like to acknowledge RJP Panel & Paint Supplies, Kaiapoi for supplying<br />

all the paint that went into designing, refurbishing, and creating our fleet of “cool soda”-blue<br />

courtesy cars. Alongside RJP, we would also like to thank Paul and his team at SignBiz<br />

for all our courtesy vehicle signage as well as our customised building signage. Finally, we<br />

would like to take the opportunity to thank the community for their on-going support in their<br />

local business. Each year we give back to the community by making donations to the local<br />

primary schools as well as the Kid’s Foundation and Children’s Hospital.<br />

Stewart Fitzgerald<br />

Stewart was a part of the Terry Stevenson Panel Beaters Team as of early 2014<br />

as a Labourer/Groomer before quickly taking up the opportunity of becoming a<br />

labourer in the Panel Shop. After a few months experience in the panel shop,<br />

Stewart moved on to the paint shop as a labourer before deciding he wanted to<br />

start his own business. Although Stewart no longer works in the Collision Repair<br />

Industry, he still shows his support consistently by offering his new business<br />

venture services to us and to our customers. In 2016, Stewart established his<br />

own Vehicle Towing Business ‘Christchurch Towing Services’ which we use<br />

when customers vehicles are not drivable and this includes Insurance work<br />

as well. Early <strong>2017</strong>, QEII Collision Repairs Ltd sponsored Stewart to enter a<br />

demolition derby using one of our retired courtesy vehicles and to our utmost<br />

joy, Stewart won! We couldn’t be prouder of how far Stewart has come today<br />

and we thank the support we continue to receive from him and his business.<br />

when your car’s<br />

in need of repair<br />

It’s YOUR RIGHT to<br />

choose the repairer<br />

For 100 years the CRA has set the benchmark for high-quality, safe vehicle repair<br />

Advancements in automotive technology - in particular safety systems -<br />

require expert knowledge to repair.<br />

The CRA demands its members continually develop their knowledge to meet that<br />

level to help ensure your car is as safe after the accident as it was before.<br />

Your insurance company may direct you to a repairer after a crash; however it’s<br />

YOUR RIGHT to choose. Choose CRA for safety and quality assistance.<br />
