Surfers, skateboarders and
musicians will be among the
people interviewed for the
documentary, which Mr Gibson
hopes will be finished by the end
of summer.
The idea came about when
talking about New Brighton with
friends, joking that they could
write a book about all the stories
they have. “Then, one day, I was
just sitting around going through
Netflix documentaries and
thought hang on a minute, I’ve
got a camera and I know how to
use it. The idea just came to me.”
The film will be interviewbased.

have a screening somewhere in
New Brighton when it is released.

Team to
look at
coastal
problems
• By Sophie Cornish
SOUTH NEW Brighton and
Southshore residents will have
the opportunity to create an
engagement plan for their areas.
The plan will then go to
Regenerate Christchurch which
will then use it to consult the
community on issues like the red
zone, coastal hazards and climate
change.
Called the How Team, it will be
made up of about eight residents.
An application process is under
way. Regenerate, the city council
and Environment Canterbury will
also be represented.
About 2000 households from
Rodney St south to the end of
Rockinghorse Rd are the focus of
the study.
Said team convener Rachel
Puentener: “It is difficult to know
how to have a conversation with
all of these people about something
as complex as the impacts of
climate change.”
Ms Puentener lives in South
New Brighton and works parttime
for Renew Brighton and
Environment Canterbury.
Renew Brighton is a community
development organisation and
charitable trust which was formed
following the earthquakes with
the aim of connecting various
groups.

FROM
THE
EDITOR’S
DESK
I’M LOOKING forward to the
doco Todd Gibson is doing on
Brighton in the 80s and 90s (see
page 1).
McCormacks and the Esplanade
(Espie) across the road were top of
the list.
You could cruise the streets
from New Brighton to South
Brighton and never be short of
finding a party, and you’d never be
turned away . . . most of the time
anyway.
There were the burger bars in
Seaview Rd and down a bit further
on Hardy St that were patronised
on a regular basis.
A cheese, bacon and pineapple
burger and a piece of fish, or a
toasted sandwich, depending on
how much money you had left in
your pocket. Scoop of chips? Not
normally – there’d be too many of
your mates who would want to eat
them for you.
Great memories!

Students create housing concepts
• By Sophie Cornish
ARA INSTITUTE of
Canterbury students are
investigating the idea of
co-housing villages in New
Brighton.
The plot of land in question
is on the corner
of Beresford and
Mafeking Sts and is
currently a public
car park.
Co-housing
Irene
started in Denmark
in 1960, with the
idea that ‘it takes
Boles
100 parents to raise a child’.
It is community-based and
sees people share tasks, such as
childcare, gardening, cleaning,
communal dining and food
production.
The idea is based around living
sustainability and gives emphasis
to open, shared spaces,
including vegetable gardens,
bike sharing, tool sheds, children’s
areas and gardens.
Engineering and architectural
studies tutor Irene Boles said
the students hope their concepts
will inspire the community and
suggest possible scenarios for
affordable, quality housing.
The students investigated different
housing solutions starting
from only 45 sq m of space,
which can adapt and grow with
the needs of a family.
The focus is on environmentally-friendly
medium density
villages and all houses would be
elevated to meet flood management
requirements.
The land is currently owned
by Development Christchurch
Ltd, a city council entity set up
following the earthquakes.
DCL is not associated with
the students’ project, but is
looking at the possibility of
transforming the area into affordable
housing in the future.
Ms Boles says a development
like this would thrive and expand
quickly due to the diverse
and inclusive community in
New Brighton.
Suitable materials for coastal
conditions were also used it
the designs, which age well and
don’t require chemical treatments.
The project is part of a course
called ‘Design for Social Sustainability’
for a Bachelor of
MAIN GREEN:
A concept
for the main
green area by
Ara students,
Nicholas
Besuyen,
Faridun
Joya and Iris
Nguyen.
Architectural Studies degree at
Ara. Ms Boles got the idea for
the project after meeting with
members of the New Brighton
Sustainable Coastal Village
Project.
The project was founded in
2013 and has been pushing
for the idea on the plot of land
since.
Ms Boles hopes her students’
research and proposals will
inspire more people join the
group and help the project go
ahead.

weeks but the pier will still be
accessible from the south-side.
AVON RIVER LITTER CAGE
A new litter cage with booms on
either side has been installed on
the Avon River. The previous boom
was removed due to earthquake
damage. The boom has been placed

large booms either side of the gate.
Once the litter is in the cage, it

regularly for full band rehearsals
and the individual tuition of youth
players. The hall is also used by

Veterinary practice
A DAY IN THE LIFE OF VET
MICHELE
Last month, our super vet nurse Megan wrote
about what a nurses day is like at our clinic so I
thought I’d give you a little insight into one of
my marathon 12 hour Tuesdays, that must start
with a flat white!
I typically arrive in after 9am due to organizing
our teenage lads for school in the morning and
walking Lola before our big 12 hour Tuesday.
I will then assess, liase with the hospital nurse
and devise a plan for any of my sick hospital
patients from the previous day. Sometimes I
will pass an intensive care patient of mine onto
Catherine if my day is full surgically. If there
is time before consulting I will phone clients
with patient updates or call them in the early
afternoon when I’ve finished consulting.
Typically I consult seeing patients for 3-4
hours in the morning and then again another 3
hours during the evening. By the time Tuesdays
rock around my consulting schedule is almost
full so when distressed clients phone with a very
sick pet, obviously we will see them but they
have to be squeezed into an already full block of
consulting. If on arrival they are in urgent need
of attention, either I will see them or one of our
expert nurses will triage the patient, often take
bloods, place a catheter and advise me of their
findings. Every patient that rings is seen that
day and often we see patients from other clinics
because they cant be seen that day at their own
Practice.
It is common place that during my morning
consults I have admitted sick patients for either
blood testing, intravenous fluids, xrays or
ultrasounds, dentistry, exploratory surgeries, or
just observation. I will check on these patients
progress, review any blood test results or
findings, ring their owners if necessary and work
out a treatment plan with the hospital nurse for
that day.
Once the sickies are dealt with, I turn my
attention to the surgical board in which all my
surgeries are highlighted in green pen!
This past Tuesday was a little insane...
Heres my list for that day-
1. Right Stifle surgery in a sweet 1 year old
Golden Retriever called “Bonnie” to repair
ruptured ACL ligaments. Bonnie blew her ACL
ligaments in both stifles while out exercising
with other dogs, so the left is yet to be repaired
in 2 weeks depending on how she’s coping after
this surgery.
2. A right femoral pinning
and wiring in a young
cat “Simba” to repair a
fractured femur probably
caused by a collision with
a car.
3. Full shoulder and
elbow, spinal, lumbar
and hip xrays in Murphy,
a 12 year old chocolate
Labrador with an
annoying persistent right
foreleg lameness.
4. A sick, lethargic Chinchilla called Pickles who
needed syringe feeding through the day.
5. A Caesarian in a 2 year old Pug called
“Geraldine”, who gave birth to 1 live puppy, with
2 unfortunately dying.
All in all I have absolutely no time to eat, drink
or get into any trouble!! All the above need to be
finished with and owners rung by 4pm when I
start all over again with consults.
Oh I forgot to mention that somewhere in the
day I have
a board
full of
messages
to call
clients
regarding
their pets
blood or
pathology
results,
medications requirements, booking in surgeries,
queries from other vets or just general advice
inquiries.
We also look after sick animals for the SPCA
and Cats Protection league. We will get a call
alerting us to how far away they are and what
sort of patient we are seeing, whether a medical
or surgical case. That can happen anytime in
our day so we fit these consultations around
everything else. I feel very good being able to
help these less fortunate animals and hopefully
give them a chance at recovery and a great life.
A day in MY LIFE is a hugely busy, fast paced
one where I need to make so many important
decisions in a day on the health and well being
of the patients in my care. There is no time to
second guess yourself, communication between
my staff and my clients is key and I need to
be very organized and able to prioritise all the
patients in my care needing my help. We are so
fortunate at McMaster & Heap to have such a
highly skilled, clever and practical group of vets
and nurses to be able to bounce ideas off when
a difficult case needs a plan.
Honestly I LOVE my job – actually it’s a
priviledge to be able to help animals in the way
we can and do. As you can see, every day is
extremely different, very challenging at times
with difficult medical cases or surgeries but the
buck stops with
me so to speak.
I leave after my
12 hour shift very
tired and hungry!
But with a big
smile on my face
knowing that I’ve
made a difference
in many animals
lives that day
and so have my
fabulous team.

Village may get liquor ban
Local
News
Now
Fire rages, homes at risk
Constable Conal Ross who
patrols the Linwood area said the
incidents of anti-social behaviour
from drinking and smoking
synthetic drugs are becoming
more “frequent.”
From business owners, workers
and shoppers feeling unsafe and
no longer shopping at all – Constable
Ross said the behaviour
is taking its toll and with police
only able to issue tickets to those
using drugs, its not enough.
A local shop owner, who did
not want to be named, said a ban
would stop profits diving.
It has been a long standing issue
for three or four years.
“It’s also just the hanging
outside . . . we’ve had customers
ringing up and say we love your
shop but we’re not coming in
anymore,” he said.
Drinking is “definitely” putting
shoppers off, according to
supermarket owner Choy Ming
Lee.
“We call the police but they say
they can’t do anything,” he said.
A liquor ban will give police the
power to finally do something,
Mr Lee said.
City councillor Deon Swiggs
said this had been an issue on his
radar since he was first elected
more than a year ago.
“We’ve been trying to deal with
it without control . . . it just hasn’t
worked,” he said.
Cr Swiggs said the synthetics
are the main issue but stopping
people drinking on the street is
a start.
“We don’t want to put more
pressure on police resources, but
they’re [police] are there every
day . . . we’ve got to try.”
A police spokeswoman said
there has been anti-social behaviour
in the area for a long time.
“Police believe alcohol is one
of a number of factors at play. A
liquor ban has been suggested
as one way of reducing alcoholrelated
harm in the area,” she
said. As the matter is now with
the city council, she said it would

not be appropriate for police to
comment further.
But Mr Wallace has a different
opinion. He doesn’t drink
himself but he knows those who
do and said the problem is much
more complicated than simply
banning booze.
He said giving people with
criminal convictions more convictions
will only make it harder
for them to get jobs. It’s just moving
the problem elsewhere, not
solving anything.
“We all make mistakes. We
all want a job. But its the background
. . . there are a lot of reasons
that turn guys to the bottle
or the can to cope,” he said.
Mr Hauwai said most of the
beggars, don’t want to be there
either. “It’s a pride thing. It’s
degrading.”
The pair are working with the
city council to set up a drop-in
centre for the area.
Mr Wallace said it would give
streeties an opportunity to have
access to education, work skills
and even simple things like fixing
their bicycles.
“That’ll get rid of us. It’ll give
us somewhere to go,” Mr Wallace
said. “We don’t need a liquor ban.
What we need is a second chance
and a lot of hope.”
But Mr Wallace and Mr
Hauwai said they do understand
where the shops are coming
from. “But why arrest a person
because they are drinking. I understand
if he’s fighting or hitting
someone but not just drinking,”
Mr Wallace said.
The liquor ban will go before
the city council at a meeting in
the coming months.

The residents’ association is

It hopes to have at least part of

effective for youths at this age.
“They have a level of maturity
in terms of they can take the
information that’s been given and
process it in a way that makes
sense. As well as the fact that
people at that age are getting into
relationships or will be soon, so
that information is relevant to
them.”

engineering concept.
The engineering team of 14
pupils, including teachers Dave
Sutherland and Bex Osborn, were
second equal in the junior section
of the 2017 Transpower Neighbourhood
Engineers Awards.
They will be presented with a
cheque of $1500 which will go
towards new STEM (science,
technology, engineering and
maths) equipment for the school
to build up their resources in this
area.
Mr Sutherland said it was the
first time the school had entered
the nationwide competition and
year 5-8 pupils who had shown
an interest and ability in engineering
were chosen.
“We try to look for authentic
learning experiences for our
pupils, so some real life problemsolving
is ideal,” said Mr Sutherland.
Pupils worked with an engineer
who was assigned by the
awards programme to identify a
problem in the community and
work to find a resolution.
The pupils noted that during
school time, their scooters were
left out uncovered by the elements
and proposed the idea of a

Health Demands 'Inglewood' Sold!
100 Threlkelds Road, Ohoka
5 Bedrooms | 1 Study | 2 Bathrooms | 2 Living | 1 Dining | 2 Car Garage | Off Street Parking | Property ID: PLS2326
Lovingly built in 1867, the soul of
"Inglewood" has endured over time -
and with the glorious grounds, modern
enhancements throughout, additional
dwelling, outbuildings and facilities -
this property is unequivocally a one of a
kind. Due to health reasons our reluctant
owners must now sell.
Featured in numerous home publications,
and with the Queen Mother herself having
visited twice, this property is a tremendous
piece of country heritage. Entertainers
will adore the ample living spaces, high
ceilings and native timbers throughout, as
well as the updated kitchen with Rayburn,
the generous bedrooms and plentiful
storage.
A second dwelling (with four bedrooms,
two bathrooms) and separate studio
provide additional income/business
opportunities, or independent living
space for extended family, whilst the
historic stable block and eight paddock
facilities are perfect for equestrian lovers.
The swimming pool, spa pool, tennis court,
snooker room and beautifully established
grounds create a magic wonderland of
beauty and recreation... all situated on
4.6323ha of prime Ohoka land.
A quality homestead for the family who
desire a truly outstanding country home
which has it all, or perhaps the buyer who
understands the potential for the property
as a venue destination.
Situated in the heart of Ohoka provides
a unique country lifestyle in a well loved
community - and only a short distance
from Ohoka School and the Ohoka village
with a Farmers market... whilst in close
proximity to Rangiora (8kms), Kaiapoi
(6kms) and Christchurch CBD (24kms).

Your Local Views
Readers respond to an
article about the Rawhiti
and Avondale golf course
land swap for housing
which has been proposed
by Regenerate Christchurch
Tanya Didham – The worst
thing to me about this is not
losing a golf course (couldn’t
give a monkey’s about that, we
have loads), it is putting the
‘replacement’ on the regenerating
Bexley salt marsh. Critical habitat
that has nowhere else to go.
Whatever way you slice this one,
it’s a dud.
Stephan Lance Gardiner –
Seeing as this is for the future of
our city, people over a certain age
should not have a say. As most
elderly people are not open to
change weather better or worse.
Bruce Burns – I am firmly
against the Rawhiti Domain land
swap, it will be the thin end of
the wedge.
Les Money – Definitely
against it. Natural green
landscapes will bring more
people to enjoy New Brighton
than cheap housing. My
suggestion would be to put that
housing in Fendalton Park.
Linda Street – I am
completely opposed to the
proposed land swap between
Rawhiti Domain and Bexley red
zone. Of all the red zoned land, it
seems obvious that Bexley should
be allowed to naturalise and
return to wetland. Liquefaction
has repeatedly occurred and,
after rain, there is major ponding
in this area.
Bexley is currently accessible
to anyone, but a golf course
would limit and interfere with
this public access. The major
detrimental ecological impact
of a golf course being located
alongside the river is just plain
wrong. Christchurch east has
suffered enough loss of assets
such as schools, bowling and
croquet clubs, shops and
churches, so why would anyone
think it is a good idea to lose
a golf course by swapping two
golf courses for one? There is
already ample space left vacant
for housing after the closure of
so many of our local schools
such as Central New Brighton,
Freeville, Wainoni, Aranui
and Burwood to name a few.
GUARDIANS: Ruthie Emeny and Cathy Baker from the
Guardians of Rawhiti are firmly against the land swap proposal.
The Guardians of Rawhiti are
absolutely right to fear that this
would be the beginning of the
end for the fantastic community
asset that Rawhiti Domain is.
You only have to look at what
has happened to QE II; the
park environment has been
decimated and continues to be
carved up with the most recent
development a massive gym
building consented to be located
right in the middle of two sports
fields. Leave Bexley to revert to its
natural state.
Readers respond to an
article about rabbits living
on the Anzac Drive, New
Brighton and Travis Rds
roundabouts and whether
they should be culled or
caught and released
Gill Williams – For the last 11
years, I have driven past pukekos,
canadian geese, ducks and once
a loose bull in the New Brighton
Rd and Travis Rd area.
There has never been any
mention of these animals being
a problem in the tabloids, or
anywhere else to my knowledge.
The rabbits have been on the
roundabouts for several months
now, with no mention of them
being regarded as unwelcome or
harmful and needing to be dealt
with.
Therefore, I think the rabbits
should be caught and released so
they enjoy their lives with no risk
to them or anyone else.
Donna Hancock – Why
do they have to interfere at all?
Bunnies are happy and probably

Fire rages, homes at risk
quite safe, drivers are responsible
for themselves. Live and let live.
Rosie Carney – I am
emailing you as I feel very
passionate about the survival of
these beautiful rabbits on Anzac
Drive, New Brighton and Travis
Rds.
They have obviously evolved
since the earthquakes, and
them being black in colour, I
would think they were originally
domestic animals that have
bred. I think if they are culled
there will be an outcry from the
general public.
I live near the roundabouts and
don’t see them everyday, they
are under the bushes most of
the time. I think they should be
caught together as a group and
relocated together to another site.
Who are we to cull animals if is
is the easiest option, makes one
glad we are human and not an
animal.
Claire Coveney – The
black rabbits do not need to
be culled, they are not hurting
anyone. They could be humanely
sterilised. The biggest pest on this
planet is the two-legged human,
who is responsible for destruction
of habitat and pollution.
Such hypocrisy about pests
in NZ. The road should never
have gone through Travis
Wetland as wildlife is killed
by the next biggest pest, motor
vehicles.

October. She has been in early childhood
management for over seven years and has
three children of her own. Along with the

is staffed with a team of professional
educators and nurturers who are highly
trained and passionate about creating
happy experiences.
The setting is warm and home-like in
nature while the playground and indoor
environment have been designed to allow
children to safely explore and learn with
confidence. This is supported by a strong
curriculum designed for active and exciting
play.
With 10 spaces in their nursery, and
23 spaces in their preschool, the centre

service. The fluidity of care allows children
to form close bonds while families enjoy

GREAT food
BROUGHT TO YOU BY...
Your fresh food people
HOW TO BARBECUE
PERFECT RIBEYE STEAK
Ingredients
Ribeye steaks, at least an 1.5
inches thick
Olive oil
Salt
Fresh ground black pepper
Directions
Preheat your grill to high heat.
If you have a sear burner and a
steak that is more than an inch
thick, get one side of the grill
going at about medium-high in
case you need to cook it through
a little more after the sear.
Remove the ribeye steaks from
their packaging and rub them
down with some olive oil and
then coat a generous amount
of salt and freshly ground black
pepper. The olive oil provides
just enough fat to help the salt
and pepper create a great, caramelised
crust.
Clean and lubricate your grill
grates with some cooking oil on
a rolled up piece of paper towel
(using tongs, of course).
Place the ribeye steaks on the
hottest part of the grill and then
stand ready with the tongs.
At this point, you are on flareup
watch. The fat dripping off of
the steaks could create a flare-up.
If a flare-up occurs and doesn’t
go away in a few seconds, simply
use your tongs to slide the steaks
away from the open flame until
the flame dies down and then
move them back over the heat.
Continue to grill with the lid
open for about 4-6min.
Flip the steaks over onto the
other side, still over the hottest
part of the grill.
Grill the ribeye steaks for an
additional 4-6min on the other
side, lid open, for a medium-rare
delicious steak.
Remove the steaks from the
grill and allow to rest for 5min
before serving. The resting
period is important so that the
juices don’t run out when you cut
into the ribeye, so be patient.
AVOCADO AND
CARAMELISED PINEAPPLE
SALAD
Ingredients
2 Tbsp Brown sugar
½ Pineapple, peeled
2 Tbsp Butter
3 Avocados, firm but ripe
½ Red onion
100g Blue cheese, creamy
½ Red chilli
2 cups Salad leaves, washed
Dressing
1 Orange, zest and juice
1 Chilli, finely chopped
1 tsp Ground cumin
4 Tbsp Avocado oil
1 to taste Salt & freshly ground
pepper
Directions
Prepare all the ingredients.
Core the pineapple, then cut
the flesh into 3cm cubes and
sprinkle with the brown sugar.
Put a frying pan on to heat, then
add the butter. When the butter
is starting to sizzle, add the pineapple
pieces and fry over a gentle
heat until they are caramelised
on all sides.
Cool. Cut the avocados into
2-3cm cubes. Break the cheese
into small pieces and slice the
onion paper-thin. Slice the chilli
into thin pieces. Make the dressing
by shaking all the ingredients
together in a jar.
To serve, line a flat serving
plate with the fresh salad leaves.
Toss the avocado, pineapple,
cheese, chilli and red onion
together on top of the leaves.

HEALTH & AWARENESS
PEGASUS POST
Hip pain: Do I have arthritis or
could it be mainly my muscles?
The team at Physical Sense in
Sydenham sees clients with a
range of symptoms but many
of their middle-aged and senior
clients visit complaining of pain in one or
both hips.
Physiotherapist Ietje van Stolk suggests
that a major part of the pain could be due
to muscle pain rather than simply arthritis.
“Even if an x-ray shows arthritis, the reason
for the pain may be the muscles around
the joint,” she explains. Alternatively, a back
muscle could also be the cause, as shown in
the image.
Ietje recalls one case where an 89 year old
client with severe arthritis who walked with
a stick, told her, “I will end up in a wheelchair,
I cannot put any weight through my right
leg due to pain in my hip and buttock”.
“Within 4 treatments, she was walking with
her stick but without the severe pain,” says
Ietje. “The arthritis was one of the factors
that made her muscles spasm but the other
was that older people move less and the
flexed position the hip is in when we sit is
particularly bad for the hip.” Ietje is happy
with the fact that although the client was 89
and could have been “given up on” or told to
live with the pain, she made a difference to
Hip muscle that causes hip pain
(the crosses are the areas of the muscle spasms, the red areas is where the pain is felt)
her health and wellbeing.
At Physical Sense, hands-on techniques
(massage and triggerpoint deactivation
techniques) are used to release the muscles.
The client also gets a home exercise program
designed to mobilize and stretch the hip,
strengthen the important core muscles and
increase general strength and balance. They
teach a movement sequence that stretches
the hip in all directions whilst the client is
able to lie safely on their bed, perfect for
older or less mobile clients.
In many cases having the muscles
released and being taught how to maintain
it, is enough to stay on top of the problem. If
severe arthritis is the underlying cause, some
Back hip muscle that causes hip pain
maintenance therapy may be necessary, but
that is often more affordable and, for older
patients, better tolerated than surgery. In
very few treatments the client will know if
it is going to work for them or not, without
financial commitment.
Physical Sense Gym and Physio is located at 300 Colombo Street, Sydenham. The Blue Line Bus stops in front of the door and there is ample
parking. To enquire about specialised exercise classes or physiotherapy treatment, phone 377-2577 or visit www.triggerpoints.co.nz

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.

Experience comfort! Experience
technology!!!
Dr Keith Chiang and his team at
Fendalton Dental Surgery are excited to
offer the very latest in dental imaging
technology. They have taken delivery of
several sophisticated dental equipment
over the recent months. All designed
to enhance patient diagnosis, improve
their comfort and safety during dental
procedures by upgrading to the latest
available. Keith believes in constantly
updating himself with recent advances
by attending several courses in NZ
and overseas. “Each course teaches me
something new and makes me revisit
Dentistry with a renewed passion”.
Keith with
the CBCT
The newest arrival is the Cone Beam
Computed Tomograph (CBCT), which
provides a 3D image of the patient’s
jaws and teeth through the latest digital
imaging technology. As Keith explains,
the current digital X-rays shows only
a 2D image. The image is crisper but
it sometimes leaves a few questions
unanswered. Now with the complete 3D
technology, he is able to have a much
better understanding of problems in
the patient’s mouth. “It’s a huge game
changer and takes diagnostic imaging
to a totally different level. It’s like having
Superman’s extra pair of eyes to help with
the diagnosis,” he says. “And it saves time
as patients do not have to be referred
elsewhere for the scans as we have the
CBCT machine in our practice and the
scan costs cheaper comparatively too”.
The Surgery has also acquired a stateof-the-art
patient sedation monitoring
system, Capnograph, which is used for
patients under IV sedation. Surgical or
Dental treatment under IV sedation is an
area of special interest for Keith, who is
a dental surgeon, and he has carried out
more than 1800 IV procedures since 2008.
“Patient safety is our utmost priority when
they are under sedation. Our Capnograph
monitors their vital signs namely the
respiratory gaseous exchange of oxygen
and carbon dioxide levels, heart rate and
Non-invasive intermittent blood pressure
throughout the procedure. This not only
benefits the patient, but also gives the
dentist a sense of reassurance.”
Associate dentist, Dr Zohnia McNeill
has a keen focus in cosmetic and
restorative dentistry, restoring the smile
for people of all ages and from all walks
of life. She shares the same passion for
dentistry and is happy to put a smile
back on the patients face. Oral Health
Therapist, Amy Lee is dedicated to
looking after the Oral hygiene of the
patients. Her role involves treating gum
diseases, educate people about care of
The Fendalton Dental team
their teeth and gums to help prevent oral
diseases and maintain good oral health as
well as overall general health.
The Fendalton Dental Surgery
provides General dental services with
a focus on Surgical and Restorative
Dentistry. The team warmly welcomes
you to enjoy the friendly environment
and the experience the new technology
they provide. The Surgery is located
on the high-profile corner of Idris and
Glandovey roads. For an appointment

In Where the Past Begins, bestselling author of The Joy Luck Club

confessions of self-doubt in her journals, and heartbreaking letters
to and from her mother, she gives evidence to all that made it
both unlikely and inevitable that she would become a writer.
Through spontaneous storytelling, she shows how a fluid fictional
state of mind unleashed near-forgotten memories that became
the emotional nucleus of her novels. Supplied with candor and
characteristic humor, Where the Past Begins takes readers into the
idiosyncratic workings of her writer’s mind, a journey that explores
memory, imagination, and truth, with fiction serving as both her
divining rod and link to meaning.

23 Waitikiri Drive, Parklands
Deadline Treaty - Closing November 22nd 2017 (unless sold prior)
3 bedrooms | 1 bathroom | 1 living room | 1 kitchen/dining room I 2 car-garage | Listing no. NTW25143
Set back on a spacious, established section
and located only moments away from all
the lifestyle and recreation that Parklands
offers, this very sunny three-bedroom home
delivers more than just space to rest your
feet at the end of the day. This home has just
been given a makeover by the current owners
including a new kitchen, carpet, drapes and
a complete repaint throughout the home.
This gives you the opportunity to move and
simply enjoy all that 23 Waitikiri Drive has
to offer. With two seriously well sized double
bedrooms and a third single bedroom this
home would cater perfectly to the growing
family or anyone seeking a more modern
home in a great location. The new kitchen
has made a massive improvement from the
original bones, now offering more storage
space and a great workspace for the master
chef of the family. Other recent updates
include the addition of LED Lighting in
the lounge, hallway and kitchen. On top
of this the new carpet was only installed at
the beginning of October. The home also
offers double internal access garaging and
a separate laundry as well. The large open
lounge is spacious enough to cater for large
furniture and houses the log burner fire and
also the heat pump ensuring the home is
warm and cool all year round on demand.
The lounge leads through to the dining space
and then the kitchen and makes great use of
natural lighting. The outside spaces of the
home hold established plantings and plenty
of space to spread out at the end of the day.
There is also the option if fencing in more
of the frontage to create another private
yard space if you so desire. My vendors are
extremely motivated to make the next move
with plans to move out of Christchurch set
in stone. I this looks like your next home
call Jonathan and his team today to find
out more. Deadline Sale Closing November
22nd 2017 (unless sold prior)
Open Homes: 1.30pm – 2.15pm
