Plan to

road
• By Andrew King
ONE OF the city’s most
promising young surfers has a
big future ahead of him if recent
results are anything to go by.
Shirley Boys’ High’s Myka
Black (above) powered his way to
second in the under-14 section
at the national scholastic surf
championships in Gisborne after
winning a Canterbury title in
May.
His coach Aaron Lock said he
is one of the best surfers coming
out of New Brighton.
“He definitely has the talent
to go pro and had a really good
showing at the national event,”
he said.

a handy wave rider too.
Lock said Myka’s father was
one of the top surfers in the
South Island and was helping to
coach the Canterbury team.

A CRASH-PRONE road in North
New Brighton may be narrowed
to make it safer.
There have been 12 crashes on
Palmers Rd between Bowhill and
New Brighton Rds between 2005
and 2016, New Zealand Transport
agency data shows.
Now the city council is considering
narrowing Palmers Rd to
one lane in four places.
Public feedback on the upgrade
closed last week.
Narrowing Palmers Rd will
make it more pedestrian-friendly.
However, some on-street parking
will be lost.
Palmers Rd resident Nicola
Smith has experienced issues with
speed on the street before.
Miss Smith, who is a nurse, has
attended crashes on her street
during the four years living there.
She lives near the bend in the
road as it approaches Bower Ave.

SOBERING DETAILS on page
3 today showing the need for
emergency food supplies in low
decile schools has doubled over
the past six years.
No surprises the jump has
been particularly noticed in the
eastern suburbs. Linwood North
principal Sandra Smith says more
pupils are coming to school than
ever before without food.
It was never that way when I
went there. Mum would always
make sure we had our lunchbox
when she waved us off at the front
door.
But that was many, many years
ago and times have changed
dramatically – drugs, pokie machines
and the cost of housing eat
into the family budget.
The brakes are about to go on
that race track known as Palmers
Rd (see page 1).
About time.

Demand for emergency food increases
Families
struggle
in eastern
suburbs
SCHOOL FOOD charity
KidsCan says demand for
emergency food supplies in low
decile schools has doubled over
the last six years.
KidsCan chief executive Julie
Chapman said the percentage
of children needing food in
schools supported by the charity
has jumped from 11 per cent
in 2011 to 22 per cent this year.
Chapman says the jump has
been particularly noticeable
in the east of Christchurch
where at least 10,000 houses
were demolished due to the
earthquakes.
“Certainly the housing pressures
[in Christchurch] have
forced a lot of families into
situations where they’re sharing
houses and I think that, coupled
with increased cost of living, is
having a real impact.”
Linwood North School
principal Sandra Smith said the
stress on the local community is
acute and has resulted in more
pupils coming to school without
food than ever before.
“Things have become
exponentially more challenging
for families in the east of
Christchurch,” she said.
“There is absolutely genuine
poverty in this community that
can’t be helped by the families
that are living in it.
“It’s time for the rest of New
Zealand to really wake up to the
fact that many of our children
are not getting the lives that we
had when we were children.”
Ms Smith said she now relies
on food and clothing provided
by businesses and charities
like KidsCan to ensure her
students don’t go hungry
during the day.
TACKLING
HUNGER: Linwood
North School
principal Sandra
Smith said more
pupils are coming
to school without
food than ever
before.
“When you’re hungry you
can’t learn. So for some children
who come to school with no
breakfast or lunch we’re able to
provide the food. We’re filling a
real need,” she says.
KidsCan figures show the
charity now supports 700
schools and a record 30,000
children every week across the
country.

Funding gives confidence to plan ahead
Manager of the
Neighbourhood
Trust Ginny
Larsen writes
about how
three years
of funding
has secured the trust’s
future to the benefit of the
community
Funding – the very word is
enough to send chills up the
spine of most not-for-profit organisations.
As the manager of Neighbourhood
Trust, (the community arm
of St Albans Baptist Church),
a local not-for-profit working
mainly in the Mairehau, Shirley
and St Albans part of town, I
feel like half my life is taken up
with funding applications and
accountabilities.
So it is a nice surprise to have
some funders making the process
a bit easier by putting three-year
funding as an option.
This year both NZ Lotteries
and the city council, through its
community boards offered this
alternative.
And we are exceptionally grateful
to the Papanui-Innes Community
Board for its grant.
It must be hugely difficult
making decisions, especially as
the funds available to them have
been cut by $85,000.
So what does this mean for an
organisation to have funds guaranteed
for three years?
It gives us confidence to plan
and look ahead, to know we can
retain our wonderfully effective
staff and provide appropriate
training to keep them up-to-date.
It means we can continue to
offer our community consistent,
community-led work at a high
level to a variety of sectors – the
Golden Connections programme
for over-60s; from exercise classes
to community days; from free
English as a second language
classes to OSCAR programmes
to the Pay It Forward collective
of over 50 local designers, selling
their products through the store
at 49 Nancy Ave.
It also means we can dream
a little about working with our
community in different ways,
supporting and mentoring,
listening to their aspirations for
their whanau.

SEWING: Hannah Perry and her daughter Millie sew together one of the 300 bags which
community group Stitch-O-Mat hopes to create in order to cut down on plastic bag usage.
Community group leads effort
to replace plastic bags
• By Sophie Cornish
STITCH-O-MAT has opened
and is already making positive
contributions to the community
by sewing reusable bags.
Located in The Old School,
formerly Central New Brighton
School, the community group is
aiming to sew 300 reusable bags
to reduce plastic consumption.
Run by co-founders Bridget Allen
and Samantha Fay, the project
runs in conjunction with the
New Brighton FoodTogether hub.
FoodTogether is a collective of
organisations selling cheap fruit
and vegetables.
The New Brighton hub, located
at St Faith’s Church, is one of 40
distribution hubs in Canterbury
and offers a $12 bag of fruit and
vegetables, enough to feed a family
of four.
Ms Allen gets curtain material
cut-offs donated from businesses
such as Hubbers, Millers and
McKenzie and Willis.
Each bag requires 2m of material.
Ms Allen said for some it’s
more than just sewing a bag.
“The people that are coming
along to the workshops, it is more
than just sewing the bag, it is the
social aspect and bringing people
together,” she said.
“Some people are out of work
and just want something positive
that they could be doing with
their skills. A lot of people have
sewing skills but don’t really have
a reason to use them.”
Three years ago, Ms Fay
and Ms Allen worked with
students from Linwood College
to sew fairy dresses and capes
for children at Christchurch
Hospital.
Ms Allen hopes to start this
project up again with the opening
of Stitch-O-Mat.

SHIRLEY BOYS’ High
School mountain biking
coach Pete Beswick finally
has the trophy he’s been
waiting four years for.
The trophy was won by
his team of Shirley students
at the South Island mountain
biking championships
in Dunedin.
“I’ve been eyeing it up, it
is the fourth year in a row
that I’ve had my eyes set on
that trophy,” he said.
Five SBHS students
finished in the top 10 of
their individual categories,
generating enough points
for the school to finish
first with 1102 points. Mt
Aspiring College finished
second with 1057 points.
The overall individual
category included three
races – cross-country,
downhill, and ‘super-D’,
a less technical version of
the downhill race with
more pedalling.
Beswick said he has witnessed
a real growth in the
sport across the country
and within the SBHS.
“I started this club (at the
school) five years ago with
six people, now this year
we had about 35 people
sign up.”
Beswick said the competition
was met with thunder,
lightning, a downpour
of rain and “inches of
mud” on the first day of
competition.
SBHS student Indy
Hawthorne took the best
overall individual result
with fourth in the under-16
grade. He finished second
in the cross-country race, a
huge achievement, Beswick
said.

Principal’s Report
Kia ora koutou. Talofa.
Kia Orana. Malo e
lelei. Bula. Fakaalofa
atu. Namaste and
Kumusta. Greetings to
our Community.
The content of this
page shows the busy
life of a NZ secondary
school. Education is
about seeing the whole person and how these
developmentally positive experiences enrich our
students’ understanding of whom they are and
broaden their outlook. They nurture students’
classroom focus by contextualising their learning
and sowing the seeds of positive ambition.
Linwood College believes in a ‘pathwayed
curriculum’. This means the school, students and
families knowing:
1. students’ past learning and skills as they come
into LC from our partner primary schools and
building on these successes
2. how the learning at LC connects to what the
students want to do when they leave school.
“What are my post-school pathways and how
does my LC learning help me to achieve these
pathways?”
In this way learning is meaningful to the individual
and strengths-based.
Coast to Coast Update
Article by The Press’ Robert van Royen
– Sept, 2017 (paraphrased)
Six Linwood College pupils are competing in the
Tough Mudder event alongside Richie McCaw
in Auckland in November, thanks to iSport
Foundation and Coast-to-Coast Rangers.
Linwood College’s Mapu Uasi, Moahengi
Ngauamo, Juilan Elia-Lui, Tupito Saofai and
Kyle Amer couldn't contain their excitement
when they heard the news that they would
be competing. They will all do the 20km mud
and obstacle course, which is designed to test
physical strength, stamina and mental grit.
Connected to these student pathways are the
national development of Kāhui Ako-Communities
of Learning. Education, unfortunately, can have
its share of short-term fads, but Kāhui Ako are
not one of them. In fact, effective schools and
communities have taking this approach for
decades. Kāhui Ako are schools collaborating
to ensure that the student is at the centre of all
activity, not just in the individual school that they
are in at the time, but as students progress in
education from early childhood centres through
their schooling to tertiary and the workplace.
Linwood College is in two Kāhui Ako. Tamai is
the schools of Bamford, Bromley, Linwood Ave,
Linwood College, Linwood North, Tamariki,
and Te Waka Unua. Aupaki is Heathcote Valley,
Linwood College, Lyttelton, Our Lady Star of
the Sea, Mt Pleasant, Redcliffs and Sumner.
One practical outcome already of our Kāhui Ako
has been a specific focus on enrichment with
students from our schools getting together
for very successful eight week enrichment
programmes in Maths, Debating, Pasifika and
with Technology to come.
Finally, schools can be complicated places. If
for any reason you would like to talk to me about
anything please contact the office so we can
arrange this. My door is open.
Ngamihinui – best wishes,
Richard Edmundson - Tumuaki (Principal)
McCaw's Foundation contacted Jess De Bont,
who is currently training the pupils for next year's
Coast-to-Coast and suggested the Tough Mudder
event to her.
"It's an amazing
opportunity –
once in a life time
stuff," she said.
“Auckland is a
really good lead
up for the Coastto-Coast,”
said
Jess De Bont.
Planting at Charlesworth Reserve
Linwood College’s Year 7 & 8 students did an awesome job during a day of
planting at Charlesworth Reserve according to Karla Guerin, the Kiwi Can
Coordinator from the Graeme Dingle Foundation.
Karla said that the planting day (late last term) was very hot and windy but
the students all persevered and gave it their best. She said that it was great
to see everyone fully engaged and work alongside each other with great
teamwork.
Cultural Festival
NZ Army Visit
College's Car Club
Linwood College students’ Car Club had a great
time at Ara Institute of Canterbury over Term 3,
learning about all things cars. Under the careful
guidance of Tutor Bernie Blanken, students
learnt how to change tyres, jump-start flat
batteries, strip down and rebuild a small fourstroke
engine, disassemble and reassemble a
gearbox as well as automotive welding.
Students thanked Bernie by buying him a big box
of chocolates at the end of the course.

Masking Up
Part of the Year 9 Drama curriculum is to focus

worked on Mask Making.
This is an important technology which has
links to Greek Theatre and Commedia
Del'Arte, both types of Drama which the
students will be researching when they get to
their NCEA studies.

'The Change Over' Review
As a Christchurch resident from the Eastern suburbs, the
movie ‘The Changeover’ is certainly well worth watching,
not just for its plot but for the visually striking scenes of
post-quake Christchurch. Aerial views show the lead
character’s home surrounded by a sea of vacant lots and
low-lying swampy stretches. Looking across to the city,
with randomly plonked containers and road works, these
scenes also tell part of our story. Linwood College is listed
on the credits as many of our students were acting extras.

Clinic offers easy
solution to varicose veins
If varicose veins are a problem for you, the
dedicated, professional team at Transform
Clinic in Mandeville Street Riccarton can
provide the perfect solution.
Firstly, they will give you a free
assessment of your veins, and then suggest
the appropriate method of treatment,
depending on the condition of the veins.
There are two methods available –
endo-venous laser treatment, which is
used for both smaller and larger veins,
and ultrasound guided sclerotherapy.
Both are easy and straightforward, and
you can be fully active immediately
afterwards, without needing to take any
time off work, or curtail your normal
activities. The only requirement is for you
to wear special stockings for two weeks
following treatment, and daily walking is
recommended.
Both these treatments give long-term
relief from the pain and discomfort of
varicose veins, and as Transform Clinic’s
Jenny Little points out, they have become
the treatment method of today, with
surgical removal of varicose veins now
considered obsolete.
Jenny advises having treatment as early
as possible when varicose veins start to
appear, as left untreated they may lead to
venous ulcers and venous eczema, although
if these have developed, Transform Clinic
can treat them as well.
Transform Clinic has an affiliation
with health provider Southern Cross and
relationships with several other health
insurance companies, which means you are
usually covered for treatment, providing it
is included in your policy.
Transform Clinic also offers a full range
of appearance medicine options, including
skin rejuvenation and skin-tightening
treatments designed to improve skin quality
and enhance self-esteem. They remove
superficial veins on the legs and face, and
also provide mole mapping, mole removal
and primary skin cancer removal. Their
website, www.transformclinic.co.nz, has
information on all the various treatments
available.
“We are a ‘one-stop shop’ for all cosmetic
medicine treatments,” says Jenny.
Transform Clinic is discreetly located
at 52a Mandeville Street. Opening hours
are Monday to Friday from 8.30am, with
late nights on Tuesday and Thursday,
and Saturday from 9am to 3pm. Phone
343-2880 to enquire about treatments or
make an appointment.
