Local sports heroes over the
decades will be acknowledged
in the New Brighton Museum’s
2018 calendar.
Each year the museum has a
different theme for its calendar.
Mr Penrose said he was honoured
to feature in it.
“I always find them (the calendars)
very interesting having
lived down there for so long,”
said Mr Penrose.
Museum secretary Peggy Butterfield
said the idea came about
when she was looking through
an old Aranui speedway book.
She noticed east Christchurch
had three world speedway
champions. Ivan Mauger,
Ronnie Moore, Barry Briggs
and another top rider in Geoff
Mardon.

Changes

for
Marine
Parade
• By Sophie Cornish
MARINE PDE could be narrowed
near New Brighton Mall to make
the area more pedestrian-friendly.
That is one option of two the
public is being asked to give
feedback on as the city council
looks at ways to boost New
Brighton’s business area.
A budget of $3.2 million has
been allocated to the project.
Option one is focused on
reducing vehicle speeds on Marine
Pde between Hawke and Beresford
Sts to 30km/h, as well as a new
road layout at the Hawke St and
Beresford St intersections to reduce
vehicle numbers.
Under option one, the centre
barrier on Marine Pde would also
be removed to narrow the road,
improve safety and increase space
for activity next to the mall.
Key features for the mall will
include a combination of asphalt
and paving, new seating and
improved landscaping.
Option two has fewer
improvements for Marine Pde but
still includes the same changes
without the removal of the centre
barrier.

FROM
THE
EDITOR’S
DESK
THE NEW Brighton Museum is
always full of great ideas for its
calendars – and the 2018 edition
is chocka with sporting stars
from the eastern suburbs.
There are plenty of them, from
rugby players and cricketers to
the league boys and surfers and,
of course, the fantastic speedway
riders of yesteryear – Ronnie
Moore, Ivan Mauger, Barry
Briggs and Geoff Mardon.
We highlight one of the sports
stars on page 1 today – Ian
Penrose.
Ian, now 76, played 103 games
for Canterbury, including 64 as
captain, between 1963-1971. He
led the side against the Lions
in the infamous match in 1971
which became known as the
Battle of Lancaster Park.
I kind of liked those sorts of
games – from the safety of the
embankment of course.

Red zone’s rabbit island
• By Sophie Cornish
RABBITS LIVING on a
roundabout in the red zone have
motorists hopping mad.
About 20 black rabbits
have been spotted at the busy
junction of Anzac Drive, New
Brighton and Travis Rds.
They have attracted an
audience, with motorists
driving slowly to look at them
and others parking up and
crossing the road to get to the
roundabout.
Motorists say the junction
has now become dangerous
and have posted their concerns
on the People’s Independent
Republic of New Brighton
Facebook page.
One resident saw a woman
take three children across to
the roundabout, while another
mentioned several motorists
driving as slow as 30km/h to get
a glimpse of the rabbits.
Transport for Christchurch
posted a video on its facebook
page of the rabbits with a safety
message.
“While it might seem like a
good idea to take your children
to see the roundabout rabbits,
the safest way to do this is to
point them out as you drive
past,” the message said.
RED ZONE BUNNIES: One of up to 20 rabbits spotted on the Anzac Drive roundabouts. Safety
concerns have been raised as people cross the busy intersection to see the rabbits.
“It is not a good idea to take
them across the road onto the
roundabout. We all know how
unpredictable young children
can be when over-excited, this
could also endanger the rabbits
and scare them into running
on to the road. This is a state
highway and heavily used by
large trucks.”
An Environment Canterbury
spokeswoman said it has
received a number of calls about
the issue.
“While it is not our responsibility
but the landowners, it
is a situation we can help get
resolved,” she said.
“With this in mind, we have
contacted the New Zealand
Transport Agency, which we
understand is looking into
control options to reduce the
risk.”

A MAIN feature of the New
Brighton seaside playground
will be a traditional waka.
A ship was originally planned
in the initial design phase.
However, the waka design will
reflect discussions during the
consultation process about
interweaving cultural elements.
The budget for the
playground is $3 million. The
equipment will cost about
$750,000.
In comparison, the Margaret
Mahy Family Playground
in the central city cost $3
million, with $2 million spent
on equipment. It was opened
in December 2015 and is
the largest in the Southern
Hemisphere.
Development Christchurch
Ltd worked with Matapopore
Charitable Trust and Ngai Tahu
to develop the waka concept.
Matapopore general
manager Debbie Tikao was
pleased about the waka and
wants to see more cultural
equipment in playgrounds.
“It’s great that our kids
learn through playing on more
of their own history,” said Mrs
Tikao.
“I think we will be seeing
more of this sort of thing
happening, there is some
integration of Maori design
components in playgrounds
within the North Island and we
are certainly seeing more of
that happening it the South
Island,” she said.
Mrs Tikao enjoyed working
alongside DCL and Ngai Tahu
on the project.

The playground will have

including some with wheelchair

A global motion spinner,
water cannons, musical
equipment and a splash pad
with spouts is among the list of
different equipment.
The Halberg Disability Sport

elements as well as an inclusive

Roar of vintage bikes on the beach
• By Sophie Cornish
THE SOUND of vintage
motorcycles revving will boom
around New Brighton beach on
Saturday.
New Brighton was one of only
of a handful of beaches in New
Zealand used for organised racing
during the early 1900s.
But on Saturday they won’t
be racing – the bikes will travel
along the beach in a parade.
Manufacturers would send
their motorcycles to Christchurch
to be raced and trialled on the
beach.
The youngest bike in the show
will be a 1939 350cc Triumph.
The fifth annual Smash Palace
Bike Show will focus on the late
Geoff Hockley, a former bike
enthusiast and author.
Mr Hockley was a New
Brighton identity and a founding
member of the Pioneer Motorcycle
Club.
In the 1960s, Mr Hockley wrote
A Tribute to A Gentleman about
the history of the club.
The event will be linked to the
book and Mr Hockley’s son Tony
will attend the event.
Tony, 82, will be the judge of
the ‘Gentleman’s Tribute’ on the
day, an award for who he believes
is the standout bike and rider on
the day.
“I’ve known for a wee while
it’s been coming up and I think
it’s a wonderful idea because it’s
the sort of thing my dad would
have always been involved in. I’ve
always lived in Brighton and I
think it’s a really good thing for
the area,” he said.
Event organiser Anna May said
previous motorcycle shows in
New Brighton have been a success.
However, this is the fifrst year the
bikes will ride on the beach.
“It’s sort of rekindled New
Brighton’s love for motorbikes
and the history,” said Ms May.
Twenty bikes will be paraded
on the day, two at a time.
The races will begin in front of
the New Brighton Surf Life Saving
Club and continue for 400m
around the legs of the pier and
back toward the surf club.
Ms May wants the focus to be
on the demonstration, not racing.
“These bikes are not exceptionally
fast, but they will be
spectacular.”
“Its not going to be a big fast
drag racing thing, we are very
careful to point out this isn’t a
race, it’s a demonstration . . . we
are demonstrating the way it use
to be,” said Ms May.
PROUD SON: Tony
Hockley will attend the
Smash Palace Bike Show
at New Brighton beach
on Saturday, which will
honour his late father Geoff
Hockley a former bike
enthusiast.

THE NEW Brighton seaside
market celebrated its 17th
birthday on October 21.
Beginning in 2000, the market
once began as a small community
affair every couple of
months.
It began weekly on Saturdays
in November 2013.
There was a wide variety of
music and entertainment during
the birthday market day including
an open mic day hosted by
Willie McArthur from Willie’s
Open Mic Night.
There was also birthday cake.
The New Brighton Project coordinator
and market manager
Martha Baxendell is pleased to
reach the 17th-year milestone.
“My team and I have worked
really hard especially over the
last five years to create a weekly
space that is inviting with a
special focus on family fun. We
are so happy with where we are
and hope to keep going from
strength to strength alongside
New Brighton’s regeneration,”
said Ms Baxendell.
It is one of Christchurch’s only
non-commercial markets with
stall rental fees going towards
advertising, entertainment and
running costs.
Surplus funds are returned to
the organising group, the New
Brighton Project, and are used
for other community initiatives
it runs such as the blanket bank
and the Christmas parade.
By Christmas this year, market
organisers hope to fully transition
to using environmentally
friendly packaging for all its stall
holders, where possible.
This involves moving away
from plastic and polystyrene.
Some food vendors have
already moved towards using
eco-friendly biodegradable plates
and cutlery.

believes this extension
coupled with the closure
of Marine Pde to traffic will
strengthen the commercial
area. “Longer term, I’ve always
thought that opening up Oram
Ave and then having the ability
to close Marine Pde down
– either temporarily, on the
weekends or, ultimately,
permanently – is probably a
good move to strengthen that
connection between the foreshore

Cr East.
“Quite often people will come

children and teenagers aged eight
to 21.
There are a variety of sports
including swimming, athletics,
wheelchair racing, boccia and
basketball.
Lilian and Alisha represented
Canterbury at the Halbergs and
came second and third respectively
in the A-grade boccia
category.
Boccia is a precision ball sport
similar to bowls and petanque
played by athletes with physical
disabilities.
Lilian also received the
award for the top athletics nonclassified
female at the closing
ceremony.
“We went to closing ceremony
on Sunday and no one knew who
was going to get what awards.
Team Canterbury got four
awards. I was one of the lucky
ones who got an award for athletics
non-classified best female.
It was an amazing feeling,” said
Lilian.
At the boccia champs, Alisha’s
team won a silver medal and
Lilian won the categories for
open class champion and most
improved player.
Alisha has acioscaphlohumeral
muscular dystrophy, causing her
muscles to be weak.
She has very little muscle
around her shoulder, upper
arms and abdomen, which
makes her core unbalance,
making it difficult to walk unassisted.
This has also caused her facial
muscles to stop working.
Lilian has otospondylo
megaepiphyseal dysplasia,
the only person in New Zealand
to have the condition which
makes her bones grow too
much, causing joint paint and
rigidness.
Both students are also deaf,
their conditions affecting their
ability to hear.
Head of learning support at
Avonside Katrina Boxall said the
two girls are fiercely independent
and competitive.
“They have amazingly supportive
families also, just really
awesome people,” said Ms Boxall.
MEDAL-WINNER: Alisha Mill
from Avonside Girls’ High
School with her silver medal
from the National Boccia
Championships.

Encouraging ExcEllEncE in our community
The
Principal’s
Desk
Mairehau High School continues as a
vibrant, viable co-educational school
in the east of Christchurch. We are
working with other schools, clusters,
and community sector groups to
develop a plan which will enhance the provision of education for all students in
Christchurch. All schools want students to access quality education outcomes, to
access quality teaching, and quality learning. I wish to share with you an insight
into the future of education by providing our community with progress on
‘Modern learning Practices’ and collaboration.
We feel we are in a strong position to offer students opportunities which will
enable them to become learners who are critical thinkers and communicators,
responsible and empathetic, confident and connected, digitally fluent, and who
embrace challenges.
I trust you can pass on to your friends and family, the opportunities that a coeducation
school such as Mairehau High School can provide for your child.
Towards 2018
Mairehau High School is committed to innovation by focusing on strategies
which improve learning outcomes for all students. Mairehau High School is now
planning for 2018 and beyond. For several years we have implemented in our junior
school modern learning practices, a programme to enhance independent learning,
balanced with good old traditional teaching approaches.
There are more sharing and collaborative practices between learning areas and
stronger links with the use of BYOD devices in the classroom. These modern
learning strategies engage and improve outcomes for all learners. learning
Teams are embedding cross-curricular teaching and learning programmes in the
classroom.
These key strategies are aligned with government priorities and include 2013-
2017 Achievement strategy, Building on Success (a focus on our priority learners)
strategy and Positive Behaviour for learning strategy. Mairehau School is
committed to ensuring the success of all students who walk through our school
gates.
Christchurch East Schools- Te Ara Tūhura
Mairehau High School is still committed to the vision with other Christchurch
east Schools based on the premise of sharing, collaboration and working
together to enable every student in the east to be provided with opportunities
to curriculum delivery and curriculum access. I am confident in ensuring
a quality education system for all students who live in the the eastern
communities. Students will have choice, opportunity and access to learning. I
take this opportunity to acknowledge all of the Te Ara Tūhura Christchurch east
Schools/ early Childhood Centres for participating in the fantastic Kapa Haka
showcase held in term 3.
A time to enjoy
I wish to conclude by saying that as Principal I get much pleasure watching
students enjoying and having fun in their learning. We need to have the ability
to laugh at ourselves and with others, and a time to enjoy the moment. I was
so proud of the students who participated in the recent Mairehau High School
talent quest, School Music tour and international day. All events were much fun
for students, staff and community. The musical and dance performances were
simply fantastic, and well done to all. Thank you to all who helped make these
events such a success.

This year our annual music tour visited Shirley Intermediate School where we
gave an hour long concert to a large and enthusiastic audience. At the end of our
performance, Shirley Intermediate performed a stirring haka.
In the afternoon we performed to another keen audience at Mt Hutt College,
before staying the night in Tekapo. Our final concert was at Mackenzie College in
Fairlie.
Thank you to all our staff and students who performed so well and to our tech
crew, Niko Smith, Don MacDonald and Paul lucas. We couldn’t do it without you.

since then there have been countless successes in its 29 year
history such as Bic Runga, Anika Moa, Nesian Mystik and our
very own student band Falter, who were National winners in
2003. This year we had three entries, with one group and two
soloists carrying on our proud tradition. entrants have to write
and perform their own original music.
We are thrilled to announce that Darrell Suaesa Faamau who
joined up with students from Haeata Community College,

One group chose to support 0800Hungry by organising a fundraising night here
at school. The students had a very successful quiz night and have raised in excess
of $250.00 for their charity. Members of our school community attended and
supported us through donations.
A very big thank you to our Year 12 students John Osgood, Parata Rurehe-Moke,

FOCUS ON HEALTH
Modern diet leads to illness!
It’s not what you eat but what you absorb
Two Australian Naturopaths Stephen
and Shane noticed at the end of the 20th
century more and more of their patients
were experiencing gut, bowel and digestive
issues that were often leading to more
serious chronic health conditions. Being
Naturopaths they wanted to find what was
going wrong and began extensive research.
What they found was although their clients
were generally eating good food they were
not obtaining all the nutrients required for
good health from this food. Further research
showed one of the main problems was the
digestive system, “it’s not what you eat but
what you absorb.” Another well-known
problem is the soils the crops are grown in
have been depleted of many trace elements
and other nutrients that are known to be
essential for good health and therefore the
crops and food are also depleted. If we do
not obtain all the nutrients we require the
body will compensate to some degree but
a lack of too many nutrients will eventually
lead to health issues.
Based on this they
developed VITAL
GREENS, a nutrient
dense powdered
formula that
provides superior
absorption as well
as comprehensive
nutrition. They
decided on a
powdered formula
that could be made
as a great tasting drink because liquid
nutrition is the easiest way for the body
to absorb nutrients especially if digestive
issues are present. The formula provides
76 vital ingredients that work together in
synergy optimising each other’s absorption
and benefits. Vital Greens contains a
carefully balanced blend of nutritionally
rich greens, vegetables, fruits, minerals,
vitamins, essential fatty acids, plant and
herbal extracts, superfoods, powerful
antioxidants, probiotics, essential amino
acids, digestive enzymes, fibre plus a
uniquely alkalising pea protein. It provides
superior nutrition to a multivitamin and
anyone will benefit from it. It is designed to
provide all the nutrients the body requires
for good health. It is also ideal for those
in poor health, those recovering from
injury or sickness, children, athletes, poor
eaters and the elderly. It is also suitable
for people with dietary restrictions and is
gluten, wheat and dairy free. Vital Greens
will help remove toxic waste from the body
while supporting all organs. You’ll often
notice more energy and endurance, better
sleep, a more positive mood, skin problems
improving, less sickness, improved eyesight
and overall better more optimum health.
Further information and how to obtain
the maximum benefits from Vital Greens
as well as tastings is available from the
Natural Health Advisers at Marshall’s

Anxious Kids -
What can you do?
We are all aware that anxiety in our
children has risen considerably over the
last 7 years, the forces that rattled our city
have continued to rattle its citizens and this
has impacted on how our children exist
and respond in their day to day lives.
Of course this is not the only contributor
and it must be remembered that any
mental health problem is not a clear cut
issue. However parents, teachers, doctors
and other people closely working with our
children and young adults have noticed a
change in behaviour.
They are seeing things such as increased
irritability, aggression, separation anxiety,
sleep disturbances and moodiness. The
normal response of anxiety to a future
challenging event has become an out of
proportion reaction to normal daily events
and this is where the problem lies.
So what natural options are there to help
support children’s mental health?
Probiotics - Promote healthy balance of
chemicals in our brain
The connection between the brain and
the gut is key to understanding and
maintaining good mental health. You
need a well balanced microbiome (gut
flora), with an abundance of good bacteria
to ensure the creation and regulation of
neurotransmitters. Neurotransmitters
are chemicals that send messages to and
around our brain. Serotonin is one of
these neurotransmitters - low levels are
associated with anxiety and other problems
such as depression. It is important to note
ARE YOU READY
TO DOWNSIZE?
Paying rates for a house that’s
too big? Paying maintenance and
heating costs for space you don’t use?
A move to one of our
architecturally designed villas
at McKenzie Lifestyle Village in
Geraldine will cut those costs.
Three villas are available for
occupation now, priced from
$355,000.

that the majority of serotonin is actually
made in our gut!
Fish oils - Reduce cellular inflammation
Fish oils are a source of Omega 3 fatty acids,
unless we eat at least 3 - 4 meals of oily fish
per week we generally aren't getting enough
of this essential fatty acid (EFA). The
result is an imbalance between this antiinflammatory
EFA and the inflammatory
EFA omega 6 (found in most animal
products, cereals, vegetable oils). Low
levels of omega 3 (particularly DHA) in the
brain can result in increased inflammation
and the disruption of signaling between
nerves, this contributes to conditions such
as anxiety. Taking a supplement that also
includes vitamin D will help increase the
absorption of the EFA’s.
B Vitamins & Magnesium - correct
nutritional deficiency
Low levels of nutrients such as B vitamins
and magnesium have been linked
to anxiety and other mental health
conditions. When we are under stress our
bodies use more of these nutrients and
our requirement is higher. B vitamins are
necessary for the production and release of
neurotransmitters, while magnesium helps
to regulate the nervous system. Magnesium
helps to relax, calm and protect the
cardiovascular system which can be put
under extra stress when suffering from
anxiety.
Theanine - promote a calm but alert
state of mind
Another really helpful nutrient is
L-theanine, this is an amino acid found in
green tea. The action of theanine is to relax
without sedation - basically it encourages
an alert but relaxed state of mind and
in doing so is very effective at reducing
anxiety. There are also other remedies
such as Bach flower remedies, essential oils
and herbs that can make a big difference
in your child’s mental health. Herbal
teas such as Passionflower, Chamomile,
Lemon Balm and Licorice are all helpful to
encourage a feeling of calm. Bach flowers
can be individually prescribed to suit the
individual child’s emotional personality,
they are very effective in helping to
reduce feelings of fear, loneliness, fatigue,
hopelessness, restlessness and sadness.
Our Herbalist Nadine, is available to
prescribe Bach flower remedies as well
as herbal formulas and give advice on
which nutrients are the most suitable.
She is available for private consultations
on Tuesday and Thursday 10-2pm and
within the store at other times.

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.

REAL ESTATE
Spectacular seascape classic
11 Cholmondeley Lane, Governors Bay
Auction: Thursday, 9 November 2017 Unless Sold Prior
4 bedrooms | 2 bathrooms | 3 toilets | 2 living rooms | 1 office/study | 2 car-garage | Listing ID BE192909
Locations like this don’t come up often
but with our vendors committed to a move
overseas, this is a rare opportunity to settle
somewhere very special. In a park like
setting with gently sloping lawns and lush,
established gardens the property connects
directly to the waterfront via a pathway.
With nothing in the way, it’s a magnificent
panorama out to the Lyttelton Harbour
and surrounding hills. Peaceful and ever
changing, this must be the ultimate antidote
to life’s daily stresses.
The classic homestead sits at the top of
the property enjoying the best of the views
and sun. Built with family in mind there are
four bedrooms, two living, 2 sunrooms and
a large library/office that could be a fifth
bedroom. The main family area is open plan
with a huge kitchen at the heart. Granite
benches and state of the art appliances
make this a home-cook’s paradise. The
dining area and adjoining living both open
directly to a large deck and the ever-present
vista. A wood burner with a feature stone
surround adds the cosy warmth of real
flame. Adjoining these spaces is the second
living room, which in turn connects to
a sunny rear facing conservatory and
courtyard. Upstairs is the master suite,
library and a second sunroom with views
right to Godley Head - the perfect spot to
watch ships come and go, with yachts in the
foreground and kids jumping off the pier at
the bottom of your garden.
There are two luxury bathrooms one
being ensuite. There is two car garaging
and tons of off street parking for the whole
clan. Set in the small harbour community
of Governors Bay the property is an easy
commute to central Christchurch, and
a short stroll from all the community
amenities including bars and cafes, the
school and the local pool.
Open Homes Saturdays and Sundays
12:00pm - 12:45pm.
See you at the open home or to arrange

‘Famous for their roasts!’
NZTrio, New Zealand's leading piano trio
concludes its 2017 Christchurch concerts with Soar
this November with guest violinist and fellow
Mainlander, Manu Berkeljon. Cellist Ashley Brown
and pianist Sarah Watkins are delighted to be
working with Manu, who is originally from the
West Coast and currently based in Sweden with a
position in the Dalasinfoniettan orchestra, to bring
this powerfully moving programme to
Christchurch audiences, including the world
premiere of Anthony Ritchie's Childhood and the
NZ premiere of Onaia by Dorothy Ker.
Described as a 'national treasure' and 'New
Zealand's most indispensable ensemble' (William
Dart, NZ Herald), NZTrio is renowned for their
eclectic repertoire, outstanding talent, and warm
kiwi stage presence. ey smash outmoded

preconceptions of classical music being 'stuffy' or
'intimidating' by presenting a fresh and
approachable ethos that appeals to listeners from
all walks of life.
e SOAR programme prepares audiences for
new heights and perspectives. Weaving through
changing tapestries, you'll find yourself adri in
daydreams (Ireland) where life's complexity is
seemingly simplified (Ritchie), primordial
soundscapes pacify (Ker), and naivety is blissfully
deliberate like a game of hide and seek (Schubert).
