Urgent 

meeting 

sought with 

Education 

Ministry 

on future 

of schools 

• By Sophie Cornish 

AN URGENT meeting with the 

Ministry of Education has been 

requested to discuss the future 

of several school sites across east 

Christchurch. 

The Coastal-Burwood 

Community Board want to hold 

the meeting before Christmas. 

Future use of the Burwood 

School site, a delay in the 

demolition of Aranui Primary 

School, discussions about the sale 

of Central New Brighton School, 

and the impact six school 

closures has had will be on the 

agenda. 

The community board will also 

request meetings be set up with 

community groups in response to 

the use of the Aranui and Central 

New Brighton school sites. 

Said Coastal-Burwood Ward 

city councillor Glenn Livingstone: 

“Given the significance of the loses 

– several schools – we’re saying, 

hey, we want your attention.” 

“Because this is big. Those 

decisions were made following the 

earthquake.”

Latest Christchurch news at www.star.kiwi 

from the editor’s desk 

THERE APPEARS to be a bone of 

contention over whether the grass on an 

empty section in Avondale (see page 3) is a 

fire risk or not. 

Neighbour Maree Ross has been trying 

without success to get the undergrowth cut 

for sometime. 

She and a nearby kindergarten say it’s a fire risk. 

It is the section owner’s responsibility to cut the undergrowth. 

But that person can’t be traced. 

So Maree wants the city council to step in. 

It appears they won’t. They’ve told her the undergrowth isn’t a 

health risk in terms of rats, flies and other inhabitants. 

Fire risk doesn’t seem to be on their radar. 

And that’s puzzling given there’s a fire ban in place and the 

region is tinder dry.

Clean this up – neighbour 


AN AVONDALE woman fed 

up with living next door to an 

overgrown property has been 

told it isn’t the city council’s 

problem. 

Maree Ross has tried for more 

than 18 months to get some 

action on the mess which she 

believes is a fire risk, attracts 

flies and vermin and is affecting 

her physical and mental health. 

The property is next 

to Woolley St Kidsfirst 

kindergarten which is also 

concerned about the fire risk. 

Ms Ross was visited by a 

city council staff member on 

Thursday. He said the section 

is not a health nuisance. The 

section was not assessed 

for fire risk, a city council 

spokeswoman said yesterday. 

The city council was unable 

to contact the owner to clean up 

the property, Ms Ross said she 

was told. 

City council spokeswomen 

Claire Le Grice said the 

maintenance responsibilities 

for private property sit with the 

property owner, unless it poses a 

safety risk. 

“The council may issue a 

notice requiring an occupier to 

trim or remove vegetation where 

it is likely to become a source 

of danger in the event of a fire; 

or it causes an obstruction by 

encroaching onto footpaths, 

cycleways or roads. 

The city council placed fire 

restrictions on the city on 

Saturday. 

“Long, dry grass can cause 

fires to spread quickly so it 

is important at this time of 

year that people keep any 

grass around their property 

trimmed,’’ said Richard Neale, 

compliance and investigations 

team leader. 

Ms Ross said the empty 

section was purchased after the 

earthquakes. 

Nothing has been done to 

maintain the site since. 

Ms Ross’ hay-fever has 

increased since living next to the 

overgrown garden.

advice from the city council about 

the possibility of a designated

RABBITS TO STAY 

Rabbits living on roundabouts 

in the red zone are able to stay. A 

New Zealand Transport Agency 

spokeswoman said the issue 

has ‘gone on the back-burner’ 

and nothing more will be 

happening this year. The rabbits 

occupy roundabouts on Anzac 

Drive, New Brighton and Travis 

Rds. There have been traffic 

safety concerns because of the 

distractions they were causing 

to motorists. There were also 

concerns about people crossing 

the road with children to get to 

the roundabouts. NZTA has said 

the rabbits might have to be culled 

or captured and released.

Christmas tips to keep 

your pets safe over the 

festive season 

‘Tis the season to be jolly! In the spirit of the 

coming festive season the staff at McMaster 

and Heap Veterinary Practice wish to give 

you some helpful tips on how to keep your 

pets safe and happy over this busy time. 

Festive foods: 

Many festive foods can be harmful and 

toxic to cats & dogs – here are some of 

the major ones that pop up every year at 

Christmas time! 

Grapes and Raisins - Some types of 

grapes and raisins have been shown to 

cause kidney failure in dogs when eaten 

in toxic quantities. So think before offering 

your pet some tasty Christmas cake or 

yummy ‘treats’ off the fruit platers. 

Onions - Pieces of raw onion, onion 

powder, or even cooked onion can cause 

damage to red blood cells, which could 

result in hemolytic anemia. 

Garlic - fresh and powdered forms of garlic 

are more potent than onions. These also 

cause damage to red blood cells. Cats are 

much more sensitive as they have more 

fragile red blood cells. 

Xylitol - Xylitol is a sugar alternative that 

is used in many commercial ‘sugar-free’ 

candies, gum, and other food items. 

Xylitol has been shown to cause severe 

hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) and liver 

damage in dogs and can be fatal. Xylitol 

keeps popping up in unexpected places – 

the newest one is peanut butter, so be sure 

to read the label carefully. 

Macadamia Nuts - dangerous to dogs 

when eaten can result in weakness, 

depression, vomiting, incoordination, and 

tremors. In most cases, dogs developed 

clinical signs within the first twelve hours 

after eating the macadamia nuts. 

Chocolate - Contains Theobromine and 

caffeine which can cause increased heart 

rate, tremors, and excitation, depending 

on the type and the quantity ingested 

potentially death when ingested at a toxic 

dose. Other effects seen with chocolate 

overdose are vomiting, diarrhea, increased 

thirst, increased urination, and lethargy. 

Dark chocolate is the most serious as it 

contains the most theobromine, then milk 

chocolate, while white chocolate doesn’t 

contain any, but still not healthy for your 

dog to have. 

Cooked bones – These easily splinter 

and the bone shards can cause choking or 

get stuck in your dog’s gums or stomach 

resulting in emergency surgery. Discourage 

your dog from foraging in your bins and try 

to secure all of the lids.

Christmas Decorations 

Christmas decorations are not for pets to 

play with. 

• Keep your pet away from plants, many of 

which are poisonous, especially lilies which 

are extremely toxic for cats and results in 

acute kidney failure. 

• Keep electrical wires and batteries out of 

your pets reach. Chewing electrical cables 

can cause electric shock or burns to the 

mouth. 

• Be careful if you are using tinsel on your 

tree. If eaten, the tinsel can block your pets 

intestines – we saw several of these last 

Christmas! 

Don’t forget about your RABBITS 

Flystrike is a serious condition in rabbits. 

It occurs mostly in the summer months 

and we see a lot of cases over the holiday 

season as people get really busy and forget 

to regularly check on their pets. 

Flystrike is extremely distressing and it is 

also potentially fatal. It is caused by flies that 

are attracted to damp fur, urine, faeces and 

the odour of the rabbit’s scent. The flies 

will land on the rabbit normally around the 

rabbits rear end and lay their eggs. Within 

a very short time of 2 hours the eggs will 

hatch into maggots which start to feed on 

the rabbits skin. This process happens very 

quickly and is not always caught in time. 

Check your rabbit twice a day and if you 

find a maggot on your rabbit take it to us 

immediately.

The long and winding Aotearoa 

By George Lockyer 

Driving a car (when are we there) you’re always on the way to 

somewhere. On a bike, you’re already there in the landscape, in the 

moment. And sometimes there’s literally nowhere else you’d rather 

be. In George Lockyer’s new book, The Long and Winding Aotearoa, 

we find him riding his Triumph Bonneville around the country, from 

Kaitaia to Invercargill, and seeing his often humorous take on life 

from under a crash helmet. On the way round our magnificent country 

he stops to interview some fascinating characters, all with a story to 

tell. We meet not just motorcyclists, but a wide variety of kiwis, from 

craftsmen, artists and firefighters, to rugby coaches, quakers and 

architects.

Sculpture turns back to dust 


A SELF-destructing sculpture 

represents the “fragility” of the 

eastern suburbs, according to its 

creator. 

New Brighton-based artist 

Melissa Macleod’s Salt of the 

Earth sculpture is made almost 

entirely of sand and has slowly 

collapsed. 

Located in the red zone on 

the corner of Linwood Ave and 

Woodham Rd, the temporary 

sculpture attempts to link east 

Christchurch to the central city. 

“I am interested in giving the 

east more of a voice. I like to 

do that by using materials that 

make you think of the east side 

of town. Sand is an obvious one,” 

said Macleod. 

It is a continuation of her other 

art works which engage the 

city’s coastal communities and 

the environmental and social 

challenges they face. 

In the past, Macleod has used 

sea water to create pieces and 

could possibly use coastal yellow 

daisies in future projects. 

The giant sand wedge 

mimicked a door stop when it 

was first built. 

“It’s a strong shape. The 

wedge is used a lot in sculptural 

practice. It’s quite significant in 

that it does prise things open, 

ARTISTIC: Melissa Macleod with her crumbling sand sculpture 

which she says reflects the “fragility of the east”. 

and also as a door jam, it holds 

things open. I quite like its 

symbolism.” 

“The crucial point for me 

is that it is strong but it also 

dissolves, softens and weakens 

and that is essentially cutting to 

what the core of life is out this 

way (in the east).” 

Macleod was aware of 

the sculpture’s potential 

disintegration but “hoped that it 

would speak to the strength and 

fragility of a community that is 

both determined and trodden 

under foot”. 

“The ultimate aim was that it 

might stand as a strong looking 

form for maybe a day, but it 

is sand and I asked it to do an 

incredible thing by being that 

big, but I think the hot days we 

had could’ve affected it. The 

ground is very solid and there is 

a lot of vibration in the ground 

from passing trucks.” 

She hopes the crumbling 

sculpture will challenge public 

perception. 

“It’s a real test of what public 

sculpture can be or what the 

public will cope with to some 

degree. It’s sort of like placing a 

broken thing in a public place 

and that might challenge some 

people. They might not see it as 

part of the work – they might see 

it as a problem.” 

•From page 1 

“They didn’t have to be, we 

were already going through 

enough,” “It’s time to sit down 

and have a conversation. It’s 

kind of along the lines of ‘you 

owe us’,” Cr Livingstone said. 

Recently, a facility needs 

assessment was 

carried out by an 

independent social 

researcher for the 

community board 

to identify gaps 

within communities 

following the 

earthquakes. 

It found a lack 

of community 

meeting points in 

the east, especially 

in Dallington, Avondale and 

Burwood. 

The former Burwood School 

site has been suggested as a site 

for a meeting facility.

Principal’s Report 

Warm greetings to 

the Linwood College 

community. Kia ora 

koutou. Talofa lava. 

Kia orana. Malo e 

lelei. Bula. Fakaalofa 

atu. Namaste. 

Kumusta. 

Linwood College 

enjoys celebrating 

student success in all its forms so our 

congratulations to the prizewinners 

highlighted on this page. I would like to also 

congratulate all Junior students who were 

awarded prizes at the 2017 Junior Prize Giving 

ceremony held on 11th December. 

Our community views education as 

the wellbeing of the whole person. All 

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 

Other Major Award Winners 

curriculum”. This means the school, students 

and families knowing: 

1. Students’ 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 help me achieve these 

pathways?” 

In this way learning is meaningful to the 

individual and strengths-based. At Linwood 

the individual matters. 

Finally, the Education Review Office reviewed 

Linwood College in the second half of term 3. 

The confirmed report is now public and I am 

delighted to say that the school is back on the 

three year return cycle. It is a testament to 

everyone’s collective vision and positive work 

for our school: BOT, staff, students, whanau, 

partner schools and community. 

Nga mihi nui and best wishes for the festive 

season and summer holiday.

Year 10s get Enterprising 

Last week ninety Year 10 students worked 

hard for three days in the school gym to create 

business ideas. Two presenters from the Young 

Enterprise Trust came to the school to lead the 

students through the process of creating and 

developing businesses. On Wednesday, the 

students were put into groups of between five and 

ten students and given the challenge of creating 

a new business based on modern technology. By 

Friday, the students were ready to present their 

ideas and associated business plans to judges 

from the local business community. 

Here Sina Sila and her team mates are presenting 

their idea ‘Zoinks’ - an app that stops you from making 

unnecessary purchases to Gyaney from BP. 

2017 Senior Prizegiving Awards 

Early in Term 3, the school’s senior 

students, teachers and families 

gathered in the school hall to celebrate 

the year’s successes. Prize winners 

were entertained by the highly talented 

Kimihia haka group and school jazz band.

Weight of gym phobia lifted 

ADVERSITY: Libby Searle 

started her own home gym 

and fitness business and was 

named small group trainer of 

the year at the New Zealand 

Exercise Industry Awards. 


LIBBY SEARLE used to fear 

exercise and the gym as she 

struggled to overcome obesity, 

anorexia and binge eating. 

But now the fit and trim 

business owner runs her own 

home gym to help women build 

confidence and get over the fears 

she once had. 

The competitive bench-presser 

has just won a national exercise 

award for small group trainer of 

the year. 

The 26-year-old Avondale 

resident runs Libby Searle 

Fitness on Breezes Rd and 

is “changing women’s lives 

through weight training”. 

“I always thought that the 

gym was for fit people, so 

when that changed in my life, 

I wanted to help other women 

realise they could do that too. I 

wanted them to make that first 

step into the gym and that’s 

where my group classes, ladies 

lifting, was born.” 

The personal trainer opened 

her home gym in 2016 and now 

runs 13 ‘ladies’ lifting’ classes 

and four high-intensity circuit 

classes every week. 

“I love working from home 

and having my own studio. I 

think the girls like having that 

privacy as well. We’ve got our 

own wee community going on,” 

said Miss Searle. 

Her journey to health 

started in 2011 when a flatmate 

suggested they run a half 

marathon. 

“At the age of 19, I was 

heading towards obesity, had 

lost all confidence, was getting 

sick all the time, and couldn’t 

even walk to the end of the 

street without getting puffed.” 

“We ran a lamp post, walked 

NO PAIN NO 

GAIN: Libby 

Searle hard 

at work. 

a lamp post and we actually did 

it . . . and that was the turning 

point for me,” she said. 

Miss Searle started going to 

a gym following a hip injury 

which prevented her from running. 

She was thrilled to receive the 

award. “I was so surprised that 

I had won. I was really stoked 

actually, it was quite cool.” 

She hopes to own her own 

commercial, boutique-style gym 

in the future.

Health focus 

of new Aranui 

play group 

A SUPPORTIVE play group 

focused on children’s social 

development will be trialled in 

Aranui early next year. 

Te Whare Whanua, The Family 

House will aim to give children 

aged eight and under social opportunities 

to support their health 

and well-being. 

City East Charitable Trust 

received about $1700 from the 

Coastal-Burwood Community 

Board to start the project. 

Adults may also have access to 

parental learning programmes 

through the initiative which will 

be run in the Aranui/Wainoni 

Community Centre. 

There are currently no Ministry 

of Education-certified play groups 

in Aranui. The closest is Te Puna 

Oraka in Shirley and a Youth 

Alive, New Brighton. 

The Family House will have a 

lounge-like feel and provide play 

options for children such as board 

games, Lego, woodwork, music 

and possible outings each term. 

Services such as child and 

family counselling may also be 

added. It will initially operate one 

day a week and be managed by 

an experienced early childhood 

teacher.

Users to take over community 

centre bookings from council 


A NEW community facilities booking 

service may help maximise the use of free 

spaces for groups in the city’s east. 

Local community groups have expressed 

an interest in managing the bookings 

done through the city council’s call 

centre. 

A community facility report for the 

Coastal-Burwood Community Board 

completed by an independent researcher 

found the booking system was not as effective 

as it could be. 

“Concerns were raised that bookings 

for the community centres are taken and 

managed by the city council call centre, 

and anyone can book the facility for 

any duration providing it is available. 

In practice, this means that for large 

chunks of time on a recurring basis, the 

facility is booked out by the same groups,

preventing access by other groups or local 

residents,” said researcher Sarah Wylie. 

She interviewed about 27 key stakeholders 

from suburbs in both wards. 

The co-ordinated approach will make 

it easier to match the multiple facilities to 

users’ needs. 

Residents from Aranui, North New 

Brighton, South Brighton, Queenspark 

and Parklands identified the change 

would be positive. 

The city council plans to conduct a trial 

with the Aranui Community Trust for the 

Aranui/Wainoni Community Centre. 

If successful, the Aranui Community 

Trust will also manage the bookings for St 

Ambrose church. 

The Bridge South Brighton Trust has 

also identified an interest in taking over 

bookings for the South Brighton Community 

Centre and South Brighton Surf Life 

Saving Club.

Pupils tested at police college 

SCHOOLS 


FOUR MARSHLAND School 

pupils are on their way to being 

as fit as a police officer. 

The year 7 and 8 pupils gained 

the quickest time for intermediate 

students in the physical 

competency test at the Royal New 

Zealand Police College in Wellington. 

The annual event is run by Blue 

Light New Zealand with teams 

of intermediate-aged pupils participating 

in mental and physical 

challenges. 

The Marshland team finished 

third overall out of 20 teams in 

the two-day national competition. 

Marshland was one of two 

Christchurch schools selected 

from a city-wide competition run 

by Blue Light Canterbury to get 

an all-expenses paid trip to Wellington. 

St Patrick’s School, Bryndwr, 

was the other selected and the 

two teams trained and travelled 

together. 

Marshland teacher Paul Tyson 

said the pupils are “really motivated 

kids.” 

“They came back buzzing . . . 

they were really wrapped to get 

the fastest time. Even though they 

came third overall, they were still 

really pleased with that result,” 

said Mr Tyson. 

One of the four pupils has 

already showed interest in joining 

the police force. 

FITNESS FANATICS: Tia Wynyard, Pai Wynyard, Mia McNaughton-Vincent and Niah Williams

Avonside old girl at emerging 

leaders meeting in Thailand 

MAKING FRIENDS: Courtney Cray with some Thai children on 

a visit outside of Bangkok. 

A FORMER Avonside Girls’ 

High student is making her mark 

internationally, taking part in the 

University Scholars Leadership 

Symposium in Thailand. 

Courtney Cray was one of 

more than 900 students from 

about 60 countries at the eighth 

symposium aimed at emerging 

leaders. 

The Parklands resident who is 

studying towards a Bachelor of 

Social Work degree is passionate 

about supporting families 

facing challenges and hopes her 

experience at the symposium 

will help. 

“Within New Zealand, and 

globally, even beginning to 

comprehend the magnitude of 

the social injustices taking place 

can be overwhelming,” she said. 

Mrs Cray said a highlight of 

the symposium was visiting a 

village outside Bangkok where 

people are working to be fully 

self-sufficient. 

“During our time, we met 

with locals, and learnt firsthand 

about the Thai farmers’ 

lifestyle and how they worked 

collaboratively to be selfsufficient. 

The experience left me 

with a greater appreciation of 

the hard work that goes into 

producing rice and admiration 

for the grassroots initiatives the 

community have in place.” 

The 27-year-old juggles study 

with part-time work and looking 

after her two-year-old daughter. 

Mrs Cray said it was a 

remarkable experience . 

“I look back to the beginning 

of the year and never saw myself 

doing this,” she said. 

“It was truly an amazing 

opportunity getting to meet 

with such a diverse group of 

people and learn how they 

were pursuing change in their 

communities. I came away 

feeling challenged and inspired.”

PEGASUS POST 

From the Board 

As we go to print we are excited to hear 

our new Bishop, Fr Paul Martin SM, 

has been appointed to Christchurch. In 

celebrating the news, a special thank 

you must go to Fr Rick Loughnan for 

his leadership in the interim, to the 

Diocese for its ongoing support and 

we remember Bishop Barry Jones 

with fondness. Bishop-Elect Paul’s 

appointment represents an exciting 

new phase of growth for our 

Catholic community. 

Thank you to our Board of Trustees, 

college and community and members 

of the Marian Foundation for your work 

throughout 2017. 

To our Marian girls – relax and enjoy the 

well-earned break. There are some fantastic 

programmes, and collaborative project 

opportunities planned for 2018. 

And finally, congratulations to our 2017 

Marian College leavers. The gospel values 

– which underpin the special character of 

Marian College – will guide you well into 

the future. We wish you all the very best 

and please keep in touch. 

Wishing you good health and blessings 

this Christmas.

Georgiana Vaughan-Walker (right) Y12 

has received the St John Grand Prior 

Award in a ceremony hosted by the 

Governor-General in Dunedin. 

The Grand Prior Award is the ultimate 

award, other than for bravery, for St John 

Cadets. Georgiana was one of 90 cadets 

- including former Marian student Steph 

Wessing (left) - from around New Zealand 

to receive the prestigious award. 

‘I love learning new leadership skills and 

I’m really thankful I joined St John, as 

otherwise I wouldn’t have considered the 

Navy as a career path,’ she says. 

Georgiana’s plans include a gap year, 

travel, and a career in the Navy 

as a medic. 

The opportunities and benefits of an innercity 

campus are many for Marian College 

students. 

From Year 11, students can choose to 

earn credits at Ara Institute of Canterbury, 

making the most of excellent facilities and 

teaching expertise – just across the road. 

Recently, three Marian students received 

Ara awards excellence 

Prize winners 2017 

The 2017 Dux of Marian College has 

been awarded to Jessie Fahey and 

Proxime Accessit to Rebecca Lake. 

The full list of senior major prize 

recipients and photographs are now on the 

Marian College website. 

Marian College Principal Mary-Lou 

Davidson says as well as reflecting the 

opportunities students have in a wide 

range of areas of the school, awards are a 

reflection of hard work and dedication. 

“Congratulations to all the students 

who have been acknowledged,” Mrs 

Davidson says.

Whatever we want to be... 

Young Māori Marian 

College students 

participating in the 

Manukura programme 

are realising if they put 

their minds to it – they 

can do and be whatever 

they want. 

The programme is a 

partnership between 

Ngāi Tūāhuriri, Te 

Tapuae o Rehua 

and seven eastern 

Christchurch secondary 

schools and aims to 

ensure young Māori see 

themselves as leaders 

of the future. 

Participating student Rawinia Tahi (Ngāti 

Maniapoto) says she has learnt a lot. 

Summer scarfie 

Year 11 Marian College student Keely 

Stuart (Te Aitanga-A-Mahaki) has received 

a Ngā Mahi-a-Ringa Pūtaiao Scholarship 

from Otago University. Keely will be 

participating in a week-long Hands-on 

at Otago programme during the summer 

holidays to experience being a science 

student on campus. 

Keely says she is very excited to be 

accepted onto the fully-funded programme. 

‘I’m interested in a career in health, 

science and physiology so it will be a great 

opportunity to see what Otago University is 

like,’ she says. 

‘Recognising my gifts and 

understanding how I can use them to 

help others, was the biggest realisation 

for me,’ Rawinia says. 

Zonta Awards 

The Zonta Awards are a celebration of the 

highest sports achievers - leaders in their 

sport locally and often competitors on the 

world stage. 

This year, three Marian College students 

were finalists at the Zonta Sports Awards. 

Renee Rae won the top award for her 

contribution to netball umpiring. A judge 

said Renee follows a long tradition of 

Marian students who have won the award, 

and there was something very special about 

Marian College and its tradition of service. 

Rebecca Lake (Ngāi Tahu, Ngāti Irakehu) 

and Millicent Smith (Ngāpuhi) were both 

nominated for outstanding achievement 

for their New Zealand representation 

in football and ice hockey respectively. 

This is the second year Rebecca has been 

acknowledged in the highly competed 

category.

KIDSTUFF 

Kids love 

MAINTENANCE: Donnell Park’s playground is in good condition, however the 

tennis court, basketball court, paths, drinking fountain and toilet block need 

repairs. 

PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER 

Call to address maintenance 

issues at Donnell Park 


“A LOT of maintenance” 

is needed in Burwood’s 

Donnell Park before 

it is considered a fully 

functioning community 

park again. 

Coastal-Burwood 

Ward city councillor 

David East (right) said 

with the east Burwood 

community growing, 

the park upkeep needs 

to be addressed. 

“Already when you drive 

down Travis Rd now you 

can see a number of new 

houses being built and 

there will be a need for a 

community park.” 

City council head of 

parks Brent Smith said the 

playground is in good condition 

but the tennis court, 

basketball court, 

paths, drinking 

fountain and toilet 

block need repair 

or renewal work. 

“Staff will be 

scoping out the 

repairs over the 

coming weeks, identifying 

budget requirements and 

checking on the status of 

the infrastructure servicing 

the area. This includes 

reinstating a linkage path 

across to Kingsbridge 

Drive from the playground,” 

said Mr Smith. 

Reinstating the sports 

field is not likely due to its 

low lying nature following 

the earthquakes. 

In the meantime, the 

mowing around the 

playground and the 

garden maintenance will 

be brought back up to the 

required standard. 

“It has potential, the 

infrastructure is all there, 

it just needs bit of TLC to 

bring it back to scratch,” 

said Cr East.

FLAME FILES 

Fire warning as summer 

starts heating up early 

• By Mark Thomas – fire 

risk management officer 

AS THE summer heats up, 

so does the number of calls 

our troops are attending. 

It’s normal to have about 

100 calls in a week. 

Weather events, of 

course, add to the number. 

So the 169 incidents 

attended last week can at 

least in part be attributed 

to the weather, or the heat, 

to be more precise. 

A large number of false 

alarms, presumably from 

fire detection systems 

drooping and a large number 

of ambulance assists 

including, unfortunately, 

several sudden deaths, 

added to the list. 

Also we attended far too 

many grass and skip or bin 

fires. 

While a few of these are 

the result of accidents most 

of them were lit deliberately. 

Whether it be kids 

playing or malicious firestarters, 

the dry conditions 

make all of these potentially 

serious. 

The Governors Bay crew 

were called to the local 

hotel on December 2 to 

what turned out to be a 

patron puffing on a vaping 

cigarette. 

It’s a first for me to see 

this but hardly surprising. 

I followed a car the other 

day with two people both 

vaping and both front 

windows open. 

The clouds of vapour 

they were seemingly 

choreographing erupted 

from both sides of the car 

like whistles from a steam 

train. 

I guess it’s better for 

them than the alternative! 

Sprinklers in buildings 

are expensive. 

But one operating in 

Pak’nSave in the Hornby 

Hub on December 3 

stopped a fire from a bakers 

oven in its tracks. 

The mall re-opened 

quickly. 

That’s why we love sprinkler 

systems.

FOCUS ON HEALTH 

Miracle weight loss fruit 

An extract of a small pumpkin-like fruit 

called Garcinia Cambogia from India & 

Asia has shown itself to greatly assist weight 

management & overall health. In fact many 

have found it to increase fat loss by 2 to 3 

times greater than normal. T.V. Dr. Oz has 

said it is the most effective & fastest working 

natural supplement to support weight loss. 

Even without exercise & diet changes 

many have found it beneficial, although even 

better & quicker results are often obtained 

with extra exercise & an improved diet. 

The extract of this amazing fruit is called 

Hydroxycitric Acid (HCA) or CitriMax. 

Research has shown HCA to help suppress 

the appetite, reduce cravings, feel fuller for 

longer, increase energy levels, help prevent 

fat from being made & stored in the body, 

increase lean muscle mass, increase 

serotonin levels in the brain that 

help control mood & sleep 

(great for emotional eaters), 

improve cholesterol levels 

that may help reduce 

the chances of strokes 

& cardiovascular 

disease, help prevent 

sugar spikes as well 

as other health 

benefits. 

It is considered 

a very safe 

supplement 

(although check first 

if you are on medication) 

as it has been used for centuries 

as a flavouring agent & digestive aid. 

To obtain reliable results it is important 

SUPER CitriMax 

CLINICAL STRENGTH GARCINIA CAMBOGIA 

According to Dr. Oz an extract of Garcinia Cambogia, (a small 

pumpkin-like fruit) called CitriMax is the most effective & fastest 

working natural supplement to support weight loss. However 

it is only the clinically researched Super CitriMax that contains a 

special blend that offers superior absorption & proven 

results compared to other non-Super CitriMax brands. 

CliniCAlly SHOwn tO: 

• Helps stop fat being made & stored in the body 

• Suppresses appetite & cravings. Feel fuller for longer 

• Increases energy levels & lean muscle mass 

• Increases Serotonin levels in the brain, especially good for 

emotional eaters. Serotonin may also improve mood & sleep. 

• Improves cholesterol & blood lipid levels 

Swanson Super CitriMax is a unique patented extract that 

is highly bio-available & clinically proven for reliable results. 

to take a product that contains a 

standardized extract of 60% HCA & also 

take the recommended amount as used in 

the clinical research. Some supplements also 

contain ChromeMate, a well-researched 

form of niacin-bound chromium to help 

improve the results even more.

Dilo Oil – The Remarkable 

Skin Rejuvenator 

Until Rachel 

Hunter’s popular 

TV series “TOUR 

OF BEAUTY” Dilo 

Oil was relatively 

unknown, being one 

of the best-kept secrets 

of the Pacific Islands. It 

may however be the number 

one natural beauty oil available 

as it possesses powerful natural skin 

regeneration and healing properties. 

According to ethnobotanist Chris 

Kilham, Dilo (pronounced dee-lo) 

Oil is a powerful skin regenerator as 

it is one of the most effective agents 

in promoting the regeneration and 

formation of new tissue, thereby 

accelerating wound healing and 

the growth of healthy skin. Dilo 

Oil is super-absorbing and can 

penetrate all three layers of the 

skin, offering exceptional cell 

hydration and regeneration. 

As well as this, Dilo Oil has 

potent anti-inflammatory, 

antimicrobial, antifungal and 

antioxidant properties. 

Traditionally, Dilo Oil is used to keep the 

skin young and youthful and for just about 

any skin complaint. Some of the conditions 

for which it is considered helpful include 

abrasions, cuts and cracks, acne and 

acne scars, pimples, blemishes, stretch 

marks, wrinkles, blisters, burns (including 

chemical and radiation), diabetic sores, 

rashes, shaving irritation, dry or scaly skin,

CHRISTMAS HAM ON THE BONE GLAZED WITH PINEAPPLE 

Ingredients 

4kg ham on the bone 

1 cup canned crushed pineapple, 

drained 

1 cup brown sugar, tightly packed 

1 tsp ground ginger 

Directions 

Preheat the oven to 180 deg 

C. Run a knife around the shank 

end of the ham. Carefully slice 

under the edge of the rind at the 

base of the ham. Use your fingers 

to ease between the rind and the 

fat. Pull to gently remove the 

rind. With a sharp knife, score 

the fat with 3mm-deep cuts in a 

diamond pattern. Place ham in a 

foil-lined oven pan large enough 

to catch any glaze that drips as it 

cooks. Surround ham with one 

cup cold water. 

Drain pineapple and combine 

with glaze ingredients in a bowl. 

Smear glaze over scored fat of 

ham. 

Bake ham for 40-45min, 

basting at regular intervals until 

the glaze has caramelised to a 

golden brown. 

Rest the baked ham for at least 

15min before carving. Sliced ham 

can either be served hot or at 

room temperature. 

ROSE PETAL MERINGUE WITH SUMMER BERRIES AND STRAWBERRY SAUCE 

Ingredients 

5 eggs 

300g caster sugar 

1 Tbsp cornflour 

1 Tbsp dried rose petals 

300 ml cream 

250g blueberries 

250g raspberries 

1 lime 

250g strawberries 

Directions 

Preheat the oven to 200 deg C 

and line a flat baking sheet with 

non-stick baking paper. Using 

an electric beater, whip the egg 

whites until firm, then whisk in 

the sugar. Fold in the cornflour 

and rose petals and place large 

spoonfuls of the mixture onto 

the baking sheet. Bake for 40- 

45min. 

When the meringue tops are 

crisp, remove them from the 

oven and leave to cool. For the 

sauce, puree the strawberries 

and lime juice in a blender. If the 

flavour is too sharp, add a little 

icing sugar. 

Whip the cream until it looks 

soft. Mix the berries in a bowl. 

Place a meringue on each plate 

with a pile of cream next to it, 

and pour over the sauce and 

berries

Time to check your tyres before 

heading away on holiday 

As the holidays approach and plans are 

made for summer road trips, now is the 

time to check that your tyres are in good 

condition, says Julie Hurst of JCM Direct, 

the tyre specialists in Birmingham Drive. 

Julie and her husband Athol own the 

business, with Julie running it on a dayto-day 

basis. 

Now that WOFs on later model vehicles 

are issued every 12 months, drivers may 

be unaware that their tyres are becoming 

worn, Julie says. 

“Come in and see us. We offer free tyre 

checks, so you can head away on holiday 

knowing they are roadworthy and your 

family is safe.” 

If tyres do need replacing, JCM Direct 

offers a wide variety of quality brands at 

very competitive prices. They have new 

tyres for everything from cars, vans and 

4WDs, to caravans, ride-on mowers, 

wheelbarrows and trailers. As well as an 

excellent selection of quality second-hand 

tyres for most vehicles, they hold a vast 

selection of 4WD tyres in stock. 

JCM Direct also offer puncture repairs, 

supply and fitting of new and secondhand 

alloy wheels, wheel alignments, 

replacement factory steel rims and rim 

repairs. 

“We also specialise in old rims from 

the 1930s to 1970s for people with older 

caravans and trailers – the modern rims 

won’t fit those,” Julie says. 

Finance is available with Q Card or 

Farmers Card. 

JCM Direct is located on the corner 

of Birmingham Drive and Hands Road. 

They are open Monday to Friday, 9.30am- 

5pm and Saturday 9.30am-1pm. Phone 

343-0099, 027 22 63 805.

Public Notice 

Is your property 

safe from fire? 

Here’s a guide to help understand 

the risk in your area 

During the fire season, there are some risks you need to know about to help keep you, 

your family and your property safe. 

Throughout New Zealand, there are different levels of risk, depending on where you 

live and what the area around you is like. As we build more and more homes in 

previously rural areas, the level of risk is different to properties built in a more urban 

setting. Make sure you check your property and are aware of your surroundings so 

you can be best prepared this fire season. 

Steps you need to take to keep your property safe 

1 

2 

3 

Make sure you have a ‘safe zone’ around your property 

- Clear vegetation close to your home. This could fuel a fire if one started. 

- Choose plants with low flammability – native plants are often better. 

- Keep your lawns mowed and green. 

- Don’t store firewood close to the house. 

- Clear your gutters of dry leaves. 

- Be careful when using any mechanical equipment in dry conditions. 

Have an escape plan and an agreed safe meeting place 

- Go to www.escapeplanner.co.nz to make a plan to get out of your 

home safely and agree a safe meeting place. Practise this regularly. 

- Think about where you will meet if you need to evacuate the area. 

- Have an emergency evacuation kit in case you need to leave quickly. 

- If in doubt, leave early. 

Good access for firefighters 

- Fire trucks need a lot of space to manoeuvre. Make sure there are no 

overgrown trees or other obstacles that may prevent access to your 

property. 

- We can pump from water supplies such as a pond, pool or tank. 

- Make sure your address or RAPID number is clearly visible. 

The fire risk applies to everyone, no matter where you live.

ALI HARPER CELEBRATES 

THE JOY OF CHRISTMAS 

AWARD winning entertainer - Ali Harper - is 

once again bringing some Christmas Joy to 

Canterbury. Aer her sold out Christmas Joy 

shows last year, Ali has put together another 

beautifully festive concert incorporating the 

Voices Co Youth Ensemble along with winner 

of TVNZ’s Naked Choir and founder of Voices 

Co, Julian Hay on piano. 

“I adore this time of year. Not only because 

I see it through the eyes of my children but 

because it’s a special time to reflect on the past 

year, the joys and the challenges. I have 

created a concert that will include the angelic 

voices of children singing which is both pure 

and for me what Christmas is all about.” 

In a career spanning 25 years, Ali has 

starred in numerous musicals and plays across 

CHRISTMAS JOY Produced by Ali-Cat Productions 

Starring: Ali Harper, Voices Co Youth Ensemble,

“YOU would be mad not to go and sparkle 

in Ali Harper’s light.” - eatreview 2017. 

“Loud applause for this generously gied 

actress, with an all-enveloping voice that can 

take us with her no matter what she sings, is a 

further extension of the celebration of song that 

Ali offers.” - Lindsay Clark, eatreview
