POLICE FOOT patrols have been
brought in to try and stop youths
brawling near the busy Shirley
and Marshland Rds intersection.
Fifteen youths fought at a bus
stop near Burger King about 3pm
last week, leaving one in hospital
and six facing charges.
Burger King Shirley manager
Tina Sherma has welcomed the
increased police presence.
In the past few months there
have often been up to 10 or 12
youths loitering nearby smoking
and drinking, she said.
Mrs Sherma and her staff were
threatened when they asked
youths to move on.
“I went to talk to them (and)
they said they were going to
chase me to my house and find
Accredited installers 10yr workmanship guarantee 6 yr warranty
out where I live,” she said.
Senior Sergeant Stephan
McDaniel said the problem can
be countered by more policing.
Five units were called to the
brawl last Monday.
The location is a big factor in
causing problems.
“The location (the bus stop) has
a high volume of youths and foot
traffic at that time of the day,” he
said.
Senior Sergeant McDaniel said
the youths fighting last week were
not school students as had been
previously reported.
“It’s not necessarily school kids,
it’s young adults that aren’t going
to school.”
Shirley Vet Clinic employee
Christine O’Keefe said it’s not the
first time something like this has
happened. • Turn to page 5

FROM
THE
EDITOR’S
DESK
WHAT AN election it’s going to
be on Saturday night.
The best and potentially the
closest in many years, and one
which will shape the country’s
future for sometime.
Star Media, publisher of the
Pegasus Post, will be following
the election on our website www.
star.kiwi and we’ll have reporters
out on the street and bringing
you latest updates through the
afternoon and into the night.
The Star on Thursday will also
have an in-depth election preview.
The polls clearly show people
have shifted to voting for either
National and Labour and this
could spell doom for many
smaller party politicians who
have made it into Parliament on
the back of MMP.
Indications are voter turnout
will be high and which ever party
mobilises its supporters best on
Saturday will win.

Fire rages, homes at risk
• By Sophie Cornish
THE NEW boardwalk in South
Brighton is set to be finished in
the next couple of weeks.
It will extend from Estuary
Rd, where it meets with Caspian
St, along the edge of the estuary
to a walking track along the
water front of South New
Brighton Park.
The construction by
Bushnell Builders has
been ongoing for about
six weeks, said Tim
Sintes, Coastal-Burwood
Community Board
deputy chairman.
The city council
budgeted $180,000 for the
project.
An upgrade of the
small bridge near the
South Brighton jetty has
also been included in the
construction.
Mr Sintes said there was

boardwalk.
“There’s so much interest out
UPGRADE: A small rail will be put down
both sides of the boardwalk, while the
bridge is also being upgraded by Bushnell
Builders.
Brighton boardwalk almost ready
there, it’s fantastic,” he said.
“We knew people loved it but
when I saw the comments, it
just made me realise how much
it means to so many people,” he
said.
A plan is being formed to
organise an opening day walk
for residents who want to visit
the new boardwalk.
GYM SCHOOL LEASE
The Coastal-Burwood
Community Board will
recommend the city council
grant a new lease to the
Christchurch School of
Gymnastics at QE II Park.
Its current home at QE
II was built in 1996 and
was badly damaged in the
earthquakes. Rebuilding
on the current site is not a
viable option, according to
geotechnical and engineering
investigations. The school’s
preference is to relocate to a
site in QE II Park where more
favourable land conditions
exist.
BASKETBALL HOOP
The damaged basketball
hoop in the New Brighton
amphitheatre next to
the library on Marine
Pde is set to be repaired
before summer. Coastal-
Burwood Community
Board Chairwoman Kim
Money says the hoop will
be removed and re-installed
with a cherry picker, due to
it’s tall height. City Care have
instructed the community
board it may take between
3-5 weeks.

Garden theft breaks hearts
Kelly Dugan
is the chief
executive and
founder of
SmileDial, a
charity which
helps families
who have a child with an
ongoing medical condition
or disability
Support is provided by
SmileDial to families through
financial aid, advice, counselling
and other activities, which aim to
put a ‘smile on people’s dial’.
Recently, one of the projects,
SmileDial’s different type of
perfect sensory garden, was hit
by thieves for the third time, who
stole trees which were planted by
families.
I want to change the world,
I want to make life easier for
everyone, and I want to make
sure everybody has what they
need, especially families raising
children with special needs.
I decided six years ago that I
would try and provide the support
to others that I was so desperate
for six years ago, when I became
the parent to a child who is a
different type of perfect.
I decided I would not allow
anyone else to feel as alone, scared
and overwhelmed as I did (we
did). So I started a charity called
SmileDial to be there when others
aren’t.
Recently, the media has
discussed the theft of trees from a
sensory garden our charity built
in 2016.
Like everything else, I have the
choice of how I will deal with this.
Yes, there is anger and frustration,
but also there is a sense of
defiance.
I choose to look at the positives,
the people who have offered to
help, the people who have worked

to replace the trees and the many
people who stand with me in
defiance. We will not let a few
idiots ruin something amazing,
something that was created with
love for those who are often
forgotten.
Why should I spend any more
of my energy focusing on the
negative actions of a few and let
them destroy something amazing?
Something built by many for a
few, something created to provide
a special place for all children and
also those people who no longer
carry their children in their arms
but always in their hearts.
I will not talk or write about
those who bring negativity to the
garden, but rather I will celebrate
those who helped create it and
those people who fill the gaps left
by the trees with love.
Readers respond to
the Pegasus Post article
about there being no
justification for the New
Brighton police station to
be open on Saturdays
Paula Rountree – It is
certainly frustrating when you
want to report something that
requires you to fill out a form
at a police station, or you want
to drop something off (found
item), especially when you
work “office hours” yourself.
Opening Saturday mornings
would be very helpful.
Jen Shortley – But if it’s
open and available for the general
public when they need it,
then they might actually report
crime, which means National’s
claims about the lowest crime
rates wouldn’t be valid. Far
easier to ask people to go all the
way into the station in town
(which they won’t bother doing
for minor stuff) so stats look
good, right? Safer communities
together lol.
Tatia Buckingham – I
can see both sides of this. It’s
hard for the police since . . . the
police funding under National
has been cut and has made
their job so much harder so
adding more hours would need
funding. If they aren’t going
to have it open every day, then
maybe it could be just a shift
of hours so that it is ‘manned’
at the times stats say are most
needed. For example, man it
on Fridays and Saturdays and
close it Sunday and Monday
or Monday and Tuesday. Same
amount of hours just in different
periods of time. The most
high activity times? Don’t live
out there so don’t really know
first-hand, but was just my first
thought.
Peter Maguire – Saturday
is the ideal day for the public to
report minor crimes, drop off
lost property, firearms inquiries
and so many more services the
police provide at a local police
station.
Your usual Monday-Friday,
nine to five worker would
benefit from a Saturday without
the need to travel into central
and find a car park. I’m sure
there are many that would
rather keep or throw away lost
property, than traipse into
central.

Fire rages, homes at risk
CONCERN: Youths often loiter near Burger King Shirley.
SLIM CHANCE: The New Brighton police station is unlikely to open on Saturdays.
Nicolas Christopher Pegg
– There is no justification for not
having this station manned 24
hours a day, seven days a week –
look at the crime statistics.
Kieran Frazer – To protect
and serve . . . but not on
Saturdays.
Chrissi Tukaki – The
beatings and burglaries and
criminal activities occur in the
east after 4pm
Gavin Simôn – Police
stations should be attended over
night and after hours when all
the crime usually occurs.
Luke Boyce – Lol, I went
in to report something and a
closed for four days sign was
up. Found stolen passports and,
yes, closed sign was up. Went
in once more and got told to
come back tomorrow as the staff
person had to take a statement
so had to close. Noted an issue
that community policing could
sort – closed. Same issue and
person the next week – still
closed. If you can’t report to
the eastside police station, then
there’s no wonder the stats say
it’s not worth opening
John Walker – No
justification for the station to be
open What they mean is, that
there is no money to pay for it to
be open on weekends.
Benny Fitz – Interesting
term justification. Arguably
the fact that crime is still being
committed justifies a stronger
presence.
Do the crimes need to get
significantly more violent or
costly before police feel there is
justification?
Stephen Dickinson – The
NB police station is a joke.
Every time I’ve needed it, it’s
been closed. Someone smashed
my car in a parking lot, mid-day,
like a year ago (and) was told I
need to go to the police station
for some reason I can’t
remember, but NB was closed so
had to find a way into town with
no car.
More police in bid
to stop street fights
• From page 1
“There have been issues over
the years with school kids
fighting down the alleyway here,
it’s certainly not the first time it’s
happened,” she said.
Ms O’Keefe walked past who
she believed to be the instigators
at lunchtime last Monday and
noticed them drinking.
“They were just starting to act
a bit strange and intimidating
then. Then at about 3pm we
saw them chase a boy onto the
bus and I think that’s when the
bus driver must have called (the
police) to ask for someone to
come down. About half an
hour later it all kicked off,” she
said.
Ms O’Keefe said she has
previously felt intimidated by the
crowds which often congregate
outside Burger King Shirley.
“If you walk past a group of
them, they all watch, and you do
feel intimidated.”

including Z Shirley, Shirley
Medical Centre and Lumino: The

Flying fox
may be
removed
THE CONTROVERSIAL noisy
flying fox at Muka Park in the
Prestons North sub-division may
be removed.
The Coastal-Burwood Community
Board will recommend at
its meeting on October 2 that the
city council remove the flying fox.
After failing to comply with
District Plan noise limits, the flying
fox mechanism was disbanded.
Following this, 488 people
signed a petition for it to stay.
The board then spent $15,000
trialling a quieter flying fox cable
and pulley mechanism. However,
it still did not comply with most
noise limits in the area following
testing in June.
The noise tests indicated the
flying fox was within the acceptable
noise limit for daytime use,
but there was a marginal level of
compliance due to there being a
noticeable “squeak” noise.
Now the board is set to recommend
it be removed and moved to
another park being developed in
the area. Parks being considered
for the flying fox include Kahu
Kiwi Park and the Prestons Park
sub-division.
Woofing down burgers for charity
• By Sophie Cornish
SNAP FITNESS New Brighton’s
manager is eating burgers to save
troubled dogs.
Marce ‘The Tongan Tornado’
Taulango will defend his title
against five other contestants in
the Lower 9th Diner’s burger eating
contest on Saturday.
Mr Taulango has raised money
for charities in the past two
annual events, in spite of the
contest not being for charity.
Competitors will get 5min to
eat as many burgers as possible.
Christchurch Bull Breed Rescue
is the charity chosen by Mr
Taulango this year. It provides
food, shelter and re-homing for
abandoned and rescued bullbreed
dogs.
In 2015, his charity was the
Second Chance Dog Rescue, and
Cure Kids in 2016, where more
than $1200 was raised.
Those making donations can
either pledge money per burger
eaten or make a contribution.
For each burger Mr Taulango
eats, he will raise $104.
“The more I eat, the more I can
help out the charity,” said Mr
Taulango.
Lower 9th Diner is now getting
involved in the charitable act,

pledging $10 per burger eaten to
the Cancer Society.
Mr Taulango has won the past
two contests at the diner.
NEW LOCATION ADVERT.pdf 1 1/05/2014 11:51:35 a.m.
“In the first year, I entered and
thought why not try and make
it a charitable event and I ended
up winning, which I didn’t really
expect,” he said.
Mr Taulango is hoping to demolish
10 burgers this year.
Last year, he managed to devour
eight and a half burgers and
six in 2015.
No preparation has been done,
other than training at the gym –
a strategy which has worked for
Mr Taulango in the past.
“I happen to be up against professional
eaters and I just try to
copy their techniques,” he said.
The charity is close to home for
Mr Taulango, who owns a bullbreed
dog himself.
Abbey Vanderplas, founder of
Christchurch Bull Breed Rescue,
started the charity in her own
home and expanded it with the
help of volunteers.
Mr Taulango’s wife Rebecca
also helps out at the centre and
walks the dogs.
•The burger eating contest
will be held on Saturday,
from 6-7pm, at the Lower
9th Diner, 89 Lichfield St.

East impressed with QE II
City councillors
visit complex
building site
• By Sophie Cornish
CITY COUNCILLOR David
East has given progress at
the new QE II site his tick of
approval.
And the Coastal-Burwood
Community Board member has
vowed to be the first to jump in
the pool when it reopens.
Cr East was one of three community
board members who
visited the site last Monday.
The $36.5 million complex,
scheduled to open in May, will
include a 25m lap pool, a 25m
learn-to-swim pool, recreation
pools, a hydro-slide and a fitness
centre.
Cr East was surprised by
the size of the complex, after
some people in the community
criticised it for being “underwhelming”.
There had previously been a
call for the pool to be 50m.
“Long-term, we certainly have
the ability to do it, but it is not in
the city council’s plans to go near
there in the short-term,” Cr East
said.
“Once you are inside, it’s a lot

He said the fitness centre also
takes up a significant space. “You
will revel in the state-of-the-art
and space that is being devoted to
this activity.”
Fellow city councillor and community
board member Glenn

Kim Money also visited
the site.

Don’t fight fire unless
you’re sure to succeed
• By Mark Thomas – specialist fire
investigator
I WENT to the fire on Clifton
Hill, in Sumner, which recently
destroyed most of a home.
There were a few things there
that are worth mentioning.
Firstly, the occupants were in
an unfamiliar house and once
smoke began to restrict visibility
it was fortunate that one of the
group had familiarised himself
with the route to the back door
and was able to herd most of his
family in the right direction.
Secondly, and knowing human
nature, understandably, the
group leader tried to put the fire
out.
It was too advanced at this
stage and all he managed was to
receive very painful burns.
He only evacuated the house
when the smoke was too thick to
breathe.
He very nearly didn’t make it.
I was asked later by media how
the fire grew so large so quickly.
There was nothing unusual
about the fire growth here.
GUTTED: This three-storey house will have to be demolished
after a fire ripped through it. PHOTO: GEOFF SLOAN
Modern furniture, made
of plastics, foams and nylon,
provides a huge reserve of fuel,
allowing much faster fire growth
than was normal 50 years ago.
Using the word fuel is very
appropriate because all of those
materials originate in oil. And
burn accordingly.
Anywhere you stay, home, motel,
cabin or hotel room, ensure
there is smoke detection.
If there’s heavy smoke the
cleanest air will be at the lowest
point.
Get down, get low and get out.
Don’t try to fight the fire unless
you’re absolutely sure you will
succeed.
Get out, get your family out,
shut doors as you leave and
phone 111 from a safe place.

Shirley Spartans win spot at nationals
Shirley Boys’ High School basketball coach Scott
Howell evaluates his team’s performance at the
South Island tournament which booked them a spot
at nationals in Palmerston North next month
OUR SENIOR A team – the
Shirley Spartans – travelled
to Dunedin to compete in the
zone 4 South Island qualifying
tournament.
Our top six finish at this
tournament has allowed us to
attend the secondary schools
national tournament in
Palmerston North in October.
Our first game on day one was
against a solid Nayland College
team, and we had a good win
76-59.
Our second game of the day
was against a young Kaiapoi
High School team. Our
experience and depth led to a
one-sided 106-42 win.
Day two had us facing off
against the two strongest
teams in our pool. Coming up
against Canterbury champions
Cashmere High in the first game
of the day was always going to be
tough. The team put up a solid
fight and showed some heart
in the first half, but Cashmere
proved too strong in the second
half and the final score was 53-93
to Cashmere.
The second game of the day
against Otago Boys’ High was
do-or-die for us. If we lost we
would lose our chance to go to
nationals. Otago came out strong
at the start of the game and were
leading by nine at the end of the
first quarter. Luckily for us, over
the next three quarters we played
some of the best basketball we
had played all season.
After leading comfortably
during the last quarter, we had a
few scares as the Otago guards
hit a barrage of three-pointers,
but luckily we showed composure
and finished the game off,
eventually winning 106-99. Sean
Kelly played his best game of the
tournament and led from the
front for the entire 40min. He
scored an impressive 36 points.
He had strong support in scoring
from our trio of big bodies – Joel
Jeffrey (22pts), Josh Thomson
(14pts) and Loyal Patelesio
(10pts). This game was easily our
best of the tournament.
On day three, we finished off
the last game of pool play by
comfortably beating St Thomas’
96-56. This was another game
were everyone played good
minutes and all 11 players
contributed on the score sheet.
Our quarter-final match-up
later in the day was against
the No 1 seed from pool A –
Rangiora High. This game was
important because, if we won,
we were guaranteed a spot at
nationals. The final score was a
hard fought 77-60 win to Shirley.
Our semi-final match-up had
us playing one of the tournament
favourites in Christ’s College. The
boys came into this game with
a lot of belief and were leading
32-30 at the end of half-time.
Unfortunately, we ran out of
steam in the second half and
the big minutes played by our
key boys caught up with us. Silly
mistakes and a lot of missed
shots, combined with a lift in
intensity by Christ’s in the second
half, led to a one-sided second
half. After leading at half-time we
went down 45-70.
Our last game of the
tournament was a play-off for
third and fourth against Waimea
College.
We desperately wanted to come
third and came out strong in this
game. The boys didn’t let up the
whole game and for the third
time in the tournament, all 11
players contributed on the score
sheet.
The game turned into a
runaway win for Shirley and the
final score of 91-47 reflected this.
It was a successful tournament
for the Shirley Spartans.
Everyone involved was pleased
with our third place finish in the
South Island. Now the boys look
ahead to nationals. This will be
a great experience for the entire
team and should give them an
idea of where we are ranked
amongst the top 24 teams in the
country.
A big thank you to Nat Connell
who put a lot of time and effort
into the team over the year.
Special thanks also to Russell
Stocks, our teacher in charge
of basketball, who was team
manager and worked hard to
get us into the tournament and
cooked the team some delicious
meals. Thanks as well to all the
parents and family members
who helped out with feeding the
boys and supporting them in
Dunedin.

Wainoni club‘s young
boxers take out titles
• By Andrew King
IZYAH HESP and Daniel Meehan of the
Smiling Tigers Boxing Club won titles at
the New Zealand Boxing Championships
last week.
It was an all-Canterbury affair in the
cadet under-57kg category with Meehan,
14, squaring off against 12-year-old
Hamuera Tainui from the Woolston
Boxing Club.
Meehan won with a split decision and
said he was proud of the way he fought but
there was room for improvement.
“It was alright, it wasn’t my best fight. I
can definitely improve. It was good to get
experience and see how it is in different
areas,” he said.
Aranui’s Hesp, 12, won the cadet under-
50kg title and said it was a great step towards
his dream of an international career.
“I was happy to make my family proud.
It was a good experience,” he said.
Fighters from the Wainoni-based
Smiling Tigers Boxing Club had a solid
showing at the event, which ran from
Monday to Friday last week, with a
number of others just missing out on titles.
Sam Burdett-Clark, 29, was runner-up
in the under-64kg category, and Jarrod
Gear-Ngatai, 16, was runner-up in the
under-70kg junior category.
Wiremu Herbert, 26, lost in the semifinal
of the under-64kg category, and
Harry Waters, 24, lost in the semi-final of
the under-69kg elite category.
Canterbury Boxing Association team
manager Holly Sullivan said it was one of
the “greenest” teams they have taken to the
national championships in quite a while.
The Canterbury team were awarded the
Malcolm Treston Shield for the most wins
at the competition.

Rawiri Waaka, instructor of
military studies at Haeata, said
the eight students got involved
at the school cafe, serving food
and running the cash register
for their community engagement
section.
He said the tramping element
challenged them the most.
About 70-80km were walked by
the students.
“There’s the tangible stuff, it
goes on their CV and it shows
prospective employers that during
school life they didn’t just
take basketball or touch, they
did something more extreme
like putting a pack on your
back during adverse weather
and tramping a whole pile of
kilometres.”
RED CROSS
There are currently 18,516
young people involved in
the award activities in New
Zealand, who are assisted by
thousands of volunteers.
Marian College’s Caitlin
Fleming, year 11, who has highfunctioning
down syndrome,
received a silver award.
Caitlin completed a two-day
tramp in Springfield, where she
experienced river crossings and
learnt how to make food on a
gas cooker.
Community involvement
at Burwood Hospital, charity
shops and the Step Up Club,
an organisation for young
children with down syndrome,
helped Caitlin take out the
award.
Ensuring a safe work place
Learning first aid is not only a part of ensuring a safe
work place, but also an integral part of our engagement with the
wider community. We all learn the necessary skills to ensure that
in times of emergency we are able to assist our work colleagues,
but are we able to take these skills home, into the community or
on to the sports field?
not all work places are the same and the injury risk for each place
can be wide and variable. The office attended by administrators
does not carry the same risk as those people working with heavy
machinery, or perhaps at some distance from a regular ambulance
service. it is therefore essential that you pick the right first aid
course to suit all of your activities – both professional and social.
take, for example, an office worker who does not have a high
risk work environment and whose concern might be to ensure that
they can deal with minor cuts and superficial injuries, or the ability
to perform effective CPr. These skills can be achieved on a course
of eight hours duration and would generally fit into low to medium
risk area. But take this same person on to a sports field either as a
spectator or player when a higher level injury occurs. The eight
hour course covering unit standards 6402 and 6401 (or 26551 and
26552) does not cover head neck and spinal injuries, eye injuries,
hypothermia and poisonings.
The majority of injuries occur outside of the work place, in
fact one in three injuries occurs in the home, making it the most
common place for injuries to happen. new Zealand children
are twice as likely to die through injury as children who live in
australia. They mostly die as a result of motor vehicles accidents
or falls in the home. fatalities from leisure and sport are not far
behind those in the workplace.
The wider 12 hour course teaches the additional unit standard
6400 and provides a wide knowledge base for medium to high risk
environments. This course covers many of the skills required to
deal with the most common injuries, such as falls (which can result
in head, neck and spinal injuries) and dealing with complex scenes
such as motor vehicle accidents.
if you are not sure on the course best suited to your needs, ask
your accredited first aid training provider. They can explain the
course content and give you options that will best suit your needs.
Look beyond the workplace and consider your family and your
location. Check that you have a good quality first aid kit that is
up-to-date with replenished items, and that everyone knows where
it is located.

GREAT food
BROUGHT TO YOU BY...
Your fresh food people
TOMATO AND MOZZARELLA
WITH CRUMBED
EGGPLANT
Ingredients
1 Eggplant, sliced into 1cm
rounds
2 Eggs, lightly whisked and
seasoned
1 cup Breadcrumbs
¼ cup Chopped fresh herbs, e.g.
parsley or chives
1 bottle Oil, enough for cooking
eggplant
2 cups Tomatoes, sliced or
chopped
2 whole Mozzarella cheese
1 cup Basil leaves
1 drizzle Lemon-infused olive
oil, to serve
Directions
Firstly crumb the eggplant. Dip
into seasoned egg, then roll into
the breadcrumbs and parsley
combined in another bowl. Set
aside in the fridge until ready to
cook.
Into a frying pan pour a little
oil. Fry the eggplant on a medium
heat to ensure they cook
right through, turning once to
brown both sides.
Onto a platter, place the eggplant,
tomatoes, torn mozzarella,
basil and salt and pepper. Drizzle
over the lemon infused olive oil
then serve.
MOZZARELLA AND PESTO
SCHNITZEL PARCELS
Ingredients
1 Salt & freshly ground pepper,
to season
8 slices Beef schnitzel
250g Mozzarella cheese, sliced
¼ cup Basil pesto
1 Tbsp Olive oil
Directions
Season schnitzel with salt
and pepper and lay on a work
surface. Arrange two slices of
mozzarella on one half of each
schnitzel and top each with a
heaped teaspoon of pesto.
Fold the empty side of each
schnitzel over to cover the filling
and secure by threading
two toothpicks through each
schnitzel parcel. Heat a non-stick
frying pan, add a film of oil and
place schnitzel parcels in the
pan. Cook over a medium heat
for 2 to 3min on each side, or
until browned on both sides and
cheese has melted.
SWEET ORANGE, DATE AND
MINT SALAD
Ingredients
½ cup Freshly squeezed orange
juice
1 Lemon
3 Tbsp Honey, mild
4 Navel oranges
3 Mint leaves
8 Dates, moist
2 tsp Orange blossom water,
optional
Directions
Put the juices (orange and
juice of one lemon) and honey
into a small pot and gently bring
to the boil. Simmer until reduced
by a third. Cool.
Place an orange on a board
and use a sharp serrated knife
to cut a slice off each end. Stand
the orange on one end and cut
off all the rind and pith. Lay the
orange on its side and cut into
thin slices. Place the slices in a
shallow bowl. Repeat with the
remaining oranges, laying the
mint leaves among the orange
slices.
Stone the dates and cut into
chunks. Pile on top of the orange
slices. Add the optional orange
blossom water to the syrup and
pour over the salad. If possible,
set aside for an hour before
serving.

New research on Gingko
Biloba excites researchers!
GO-Advanced
Omega-PC
For decades scientists believed brain
damage with age, after a stroke or injury
was irreversible and brain neurons could
not be repaired. In more recent times, new
research has shown that neurons can grow
back with the right conditions and that a
special extract of Gingko Biloba (EGb-761
or TEBONIN) has been clinically found to
assist in this. The implications for stroke
recovery are obvious, but researchers also
know many of us suffer from undetected
“micro-strokes” that over a period of time
slowly reduce our cognitive function.
TEBONIN is prescribed worldwide as a
natural supportive agent for a healthy brain
and cognitive function. It supports healthy
mental performance, concentration, focus,
alertness, motor function and to help
with many conditions including tinnitus
(ringing and noise in the ears), vertigo
and normal balance. TEBONIN improves
BOOST BRAIN
PERFORMANCE UP TO 30%
TEBONIN is the No 1 Ginkgo Biloba extract in the World with more than 8 million tablets
being consumed every day. It is also the most researched herbal extract with more than 60
controlled clinical studies & over 400 scientific studies. It has been shown to have excellent
efficacy, safety & tolerability. Millions of consumers have trusted TEBONIN for over 30
years to support blood flow, capillary health, brain health & performance.
Studies on TEBONIN Show:
- Improved Brain Performance & Function up to 30%. This includes improvement
in mental sharpness, focus, attention, concentration, understanding, memory & recall.
- Reduces errors made & mental stress.
- The only Ginkgo shown to increase activity in all areas of the brain. Can help restore
brain function after a brain injury such as from a stroke.
- Helps relieve tinnitus (ringing & noise in the ears), vertigo, dizziness & supports normal
balance.
- Improves blood flow to all areas of the body.
- Reduces plaque formation in the blood vessels.
- Protective effect against eyes damage caused by light.
micro-circulation and helps the blood flow
reach those critical places it needs to get to.
It is a potent anti-oxidant and makes the
red blood cells more pliable and capillary
walls more flexible.
TEBONIN is one of the most widely
studied and researched herbal products in
the world and is the only Ginkgo biloba
extract manufactured via a patented multistep
extraction process. Each small tablet
contains a highly concentrated 50:1 extract
to give you a therapeutic clinical dose
without having to take a large amount of
the herb. Of 25 Gingko biloba products on
the market, and tested by a major medical
journal, only TEBONIN passed all five of the
test requirements. Ten brands didn’t meet
any requirements and the rest didn’t pass
more than three out of five requirements.
TEBONIN is the only Gingko biloba
extract shown to activate all areas of the
brain and is considered the gold standard
in Gingko. TEBONIN has been trusted by
millions of consumers worldwide for over
30 years with more than 8,000,000 tablets
consumed each day.

ONLY GO OMEGA-PC retains the natural Phospholipids that have been shown to be so beneficial for Good
Health BUT are lost in other brands of fish oil due to the less natural manufacturing processes used!
GO-ADVANCED OMEGA-PC SETS NEW STANDARDS IN FISH OIL!
Omega-3 fish oil normally contains the vital Omega-3 fatty acids in a triglyceride form. Fish however naturally
contain Omega-3 in a triglyceride & phospholipid form but until recently the phospholipid form was lost due to the
manufacturing process. GO OMEGA-PC is produced using a new more natural cold extraction process that better
preserves the natural nutrient profile found in fish. Studies show GO OMEGA-PC offers superior absorption with
increased omega-3 fatty acids in organs giving the potential for more health benefits.
GO-ADVANCED OMEGA-PC OFFERS:
• Superior absorption of vital Omega-3, as
shown in research
• Advanced new cold extraction better
preserves the natural nutrient profile
found in fish
• Naturally contains phospholipids to
support cellular health
• Contains vitamin D3 to support immune,

It is well known how important omega-3
fatty acids are to good health. It is estimated
most people don’t even get a third of the
recommended omega-3 fatty acids on
a weekly basis. Countries with a higher
amounts of omega-3 in their diet are known
to have lower cardiovascular disease and, in
many cases, better overall health.
Recent research has shown inflammation
to be a big part of disease and the ageing
process.

good health. Until now most fish oil
only contained omega-3 fatty acids in
triglyceride form. Fish, however, naturally
contain omega-3 in triglyceride and
phospholipid form but until recently the
phospholipid form was lost due to the
manufacturing process.
GO-Advanced Omega-PC sets new
standards in fish oil as it contains
omega-3 attached to both triglycerides
and phospholipids. Studies have shown
GO-Advanced Omega-PC to be far better
absorbed, leading to increased levels of
vital omega-3 fatty acids in the organs
through giving the potential for more
health benefits.
GO-Advanced Omega-PC is produced
from fresh wild deep sea cold water fish
using a new advanced and more natural
cold extraction process that better preserves
the natural nutrient profile found in fish. It
is manufactured to high GMP standards
and is molecularly distilled to remove any
containments, toxins and heavy metals.
Further info on this revolutionary new
fish oil and its benefits is available from
the Natural Health Advisers, Naturopath
and Medical Herbalist at Marshall’s
Health & Natural Therapy in New
Brighton, phone 388 5757. We are always
happy to help!

KIDSTUFF
Lindisfarne Nursery School
Lindisfarne Nursery School was
established by Tricia Cuthbert in 1987 and
remains part of the Cuthbert family today.
We are committed to Christchurch, to our
community, our Lindisfarne families, and
most importantly the futures
and happiness of our children.
We believe in developing
children’s feelings of self-worth,
and encouraging tolerance and
understanding of others.
Our teachers all hold a
Diploma of Teaching in Early
Childhood, and one holds a
Diploma of Teaching in Primary
as well as early childhood. She
prepares the four year olds for
school through an informal
and brief daily ‘lesson’ time
which the children love to take
part in.
We have a separate nursery
with an outdoor area where the
children discover and explore.
We are a strong multi-cultural
centre with committed teachers
who embrace and celebrate
diversity for our families.
Morning and afternoon tea and a cooked
lunch are provided, and we welcome
visitors.
Check us out at www.lindisfarnenursery.

Kids love CASPA!
A child who’s ‘a
little different’
Children who are just ‘a little different’ – perhaps they’re
clumsy, have difficulty writing or tying shoelaces, or
prone to ‘meltdowns’, and struggle to fit in.
To interpret and function in the world
we need to accurately process information
from our environment.
Some children’s nervous systems
may receive, sort and use information
inaccurately (sensory processing) causing
them to either under or over reaction to
a sensation, or actively seek or avoid a
sensation.
This may cause distress for the
child, family and teachers,
as coping with everyday
experiences like
noisy classrooms,
the feel of fabric,
or moving in a
coordinated way
may present huge
challenges. It can
influence behaviour
and interfere with
learning, doing
everyday activities or
simply fitting in.
No child is the
same, each have
their own individual
difficulties.
Therapy Professionals Therapists
may be able to help improve the life
of these children and those around
them. Contact us at 3775280 or
www.therapyprofessionals.co.nz.
CASPA (Creative After School
Programmed Activities) incorporating
PAPA JACKS offers children the
opportunity to be creative, make new
friends and try new experiences all within a
safe, nurturing environment. CASPA offers
working parents an affordable after school
and school holiday programme that their
kids just love!
CASPA attributes its success to the
variety of activities on offer as well as the
convenience and affordability for parents.
CASPA kids enjoy an exciting range of
activities including sports, music, games,
drama, arts and craft as well as fun trips.
Previous themes and activities have included
a Karaoke Dance Party, CASPA Fear Factor,
Healthy Art, Out of Africa and hundreds of
other amazing themes/activities!
CASPA parents enjoy peace of mind,
knowing their kids are safe and enjoying
the benefits of a quality after school
programme. Some parents and caregivers
also enjoy government subsidies for
CASPA. CASPA is Child Youth and Family
approved for the OSCAR Subsidy and in
some circumstances, the full CASPA fee
will be covered by the subsidy.

The call to be closer to family is very
strong. Be quick to view this immaculate
and appealing modern 211.95m 2 home,
built in 2005. It has been carefully
maintained to offer a relaxed lifestyle in
a superb location. Situated in a quiet, noexit
street, across the road from walking
trails in leafy Styx Mill Reserve, a close
walk to supermarket and shops, and a
short drive to Northlands or the CBD.
Manicured gardens and timeless
brick construction offer an elegant
first impression and a skylight over
the entrance creates a light and bright
welcome. A northwest aspect ensures
the open-plan living and dining is sunny
and warm, and French doors opening to
decking on two sides make the most of
the magical outdoor living. A breakfast
bar separates a well-appointed kitchen,
which boasts a double wall oven, two
dish-drawers and gas cooktop. The
separate lounge adds further flexibility,
and is an elegant and tranquil space with
leafy views through the feature windows
and a gas fire for cosy ambience. Light and
inviting, the master bedroom includes an
ensuite, while two more double bedrooms
and an office (or 4th bedroom) share a
family bathroom. A double internalaccess
garage is a practical plus, while
the fully fenced and landscaped gardens
include irrigation and a choice of outdoor
living.
Beautifully presented and loaded with
extras, including solar water heating
(with gas boost) and attic storage in the
ceiling, it’s clear that this is a much-loved
home, but the vendor is determined to
move closer to family and has committed
to selling.

Daughter of Gloriavale
My Life in a Religious Cult
By Lilia Tarawa
This personal account, Lilia Tarawa exposes the shocking
secrets of the cult, with its rigid rules and oppressive
control of women. She describes her fear when her
family questioned Gloriavale’s beliefs and practices.
When her parents fled with their children, Lilia was forced
to make a desperate choice: to stay or to leave. No
matter what she chose, she would lose people she
loved. In the outside world, Lilia struggled. Would she
be damned to hell for leaving? How would she learn
to navigate this strange place called ‘the world’? And
would she ever find out the truth about the criminal
convictions against her grandfather.

What Am I Supposed
To Eat?
By Libby Weaver
For so many people today, food is complicated.
They’re told to make `healthy’ choices yet this could
include anything from an apple to a packet of
sugar-free biscuits. They have lost touch with how
much to eat, how often and how their food choices
are impacting on their health - and then there are
those all-consuming moments when they feel like
no amount of food could satisfy their hungry hearts.
The latest book by ten times number one best-selling
author Dr Libby Weaver, What am I Supposed to Eat?,
puts the reader back in control of their food choices.

his long-time collaborator Helen Goh bring the
Ottolenghi... read more hallmarks of fresh, evocative
ingredients, exotic spices and complex flavourings.
Sweet includes over 110 innovative recipes. There is
something here to delight everyone - from simple
recipes parents can make with their children to
showstopping layer cakes and roulades that will
reignite the imaginations of accomplished bakers.

Meet the Team
Paul Perry - Owner
Paul has a very extensive 42 years’ experience in the Collision
Repair Industry. In 1975 Paul completed his apprenticeship
with “Farmers” (whom were later bought out by Blackwells).
Paul continued to work for Blackwells until 2007 when he
decided to find something more challenging for himself. In
2007 Paul broadened his abilities and began working for
Truck Worx doing structural repairs on Commercial Trucks
until he decided to find work closer to home.
Paul was employed by Terry Stevenson Collision Repairs at
the end of 2007, which he then went on to purchase with his
wife Shanel in 2016, which is when QEII Collision Repairs Ltd
was established. During this time, Paul has acquired his I-Car
Recognition Silver Certificate in 2017.
Gary De Pina
Gary is the go-to-guy when it comes to anything involving the
Collision Repair Industry after 34 years in the trade. Gary completed
his apprenticeship as a refinisher/painter at Motor Inn Panel Beaters
(which Hammonds then bought out in 1990) in 1987 before moving
on to Nui Ngakau in 2002 as a tutor, training students for the
Collision Repair Industry, for 18 months. In late 2003 Gary took up
the role of Shop Manager at New Brighton Panel Beaters for 8 years
but due to the 2011 February Earthquakes this business ceased
trading. Gary then took up the role as estimator for Terry Stevenson
Panel Beaters for a period before moving on to Ferrymead Panel
and Paint as estimator, as well. As of 2016, Gary returned to QEII
Collision Repairs Ltd (previously Terry Stevenson Panel Beaters) as
Manager and has since achieved his Platinum Certificate.
Victoria Tiopira
Victoria was employed by Terry Stevenson Panel Beaters when she was 14
in 2011, while she was still at school during the holidays, as a car detailer
& shop labourer. Spring of 2012 Victoria moved to Hokitika and went
on to work at the Hokitika Glass Studio when she decided to add a little
adventure to her life while she was still young. In 2013 Victoria decided to
return to Christchurch to make NCEA her main priority alongside working at
McDonalds Part-Time. Victoria completed NCEA Level 1, 2 & 3 by 2015 and
decided to leave school early and continue working at McDonalds Fulltime.
Victoria had a gorgeous little boy in 2016 and decided shift work didn’t suit
her family anymore and went on to work as a telemarketing representative
for a few months. Telemarketing wasn’t what she enjoyed so she left and
returned to QEII Collision Repairs Ltd (previously Terry Stevenson Panel
Beaters) as a Car Detailer & Shop Labourer and eventually was promoted
into the role of Financial Administrator at the beginning of 2017.
Shanel Tiopira - Owner
Shanel has worked behind the scenes of the Collision Repair Industry for 14 years as a Business
Administrator and the past year as Administrator/Business Owner of QEII Collision Repairs Ltd. In
1988 Shanel began working for Kmart Hastings in the Retail service sector before acquiring her
Diploma of Business & Management in 1990 and moving to Christchurch to continue working at
Kmart Riccarton as a Trainee Manager. By 1992 Shanel had been promoted to Manager at Kmart
Riccarton, Papatoeoe, The Palms Shirley stores and again Riccarton when she decided that she
wanted a change out of the retail scene. In 2001 Shanel moved on to iDispatch where she became
supervisor in Communications. (This was the same year she also met her husband Paul Perry who is
currently also her Business Partner at QEII Collision Repairs Ltd.) In 2003 Shanel went to visit Hubby
at work (Terry Stevenson Panel Beaters) for lunch and she hasn’t left the Collision Repair Industry
since. After working 2 jobs for a year she decided she wanted to continue working in the Collision
Repair Industry and stepped back from iDispatch in 2004. When the opportunity arose to purchase
the business, Shanel & Paul took the opportunity and established QEII Collision Repairs Ltd in 2016.

the business to maintain a certain amount of training through approved training agencies
for all staff. Thanks to I-Car as well as MTA, QEII Collision Repairs Ltd has successfully
assisted two employees reach a goal of a Silver Certificate and Platinum Certificate over the
past year. We would like to acknowledge RJP Panel & Paint Supplies, Kaiapoi for supplying
all the paint that went into designing, refurbishing, and creating our fleet of “cool soda”-blue
courtesy cars. Alongside RJP, we would also like to thank Paul and his team at SignBiz
for all our courtesy vehicle signage as well as our customised building signage. Finally, we
would like to take the opportunity to thank the community for their on-going support in their
local business. Each year we give back to the community by making donations to the local
primary schools as well as the Kid’s Foundation and Children’s Hospital.
Stewart Fitzgerald
Stewart was a part of the Terry Stevenson Panel Beaters Team as of early 2014
as a Labourer/Groomer before quickly taking up the opportunity of becoming a
labourer in the Panel Shop. After a few months experience in the panel shop,
Stewart moved on to the paint shop as a labourer before deciding he wanted to
start his own business. Although Stewart no longer works in the Collision Repair
Industry, he still shows his support consistently by offering his new business
venture services to us and to our customers. In 2016, Stewart established his
own Vehicle Towing Business ‘Christchurch Towing Services’ which we use
when customers vehicles are not drivable and this includes Insurance work
as well. Early 2017, QEII Collision Repairs Ltd sponsored Stewart to enter a
demolition derby using one of our retired courtesy vehicles and to our utmost
joy, Stewart won! We couldn’t be prouder of how far Stewart has come today
and we thank the support we continue to receive from him and his business.
