Staff take<br />

pay cut<br />

in bid<br />

to save<br />

pre-school<br />

TOM DOUDNEY<br />

Woolston Preschool staff have<br />

taken pay cuts and are handling<br />

maintenance jobs themselves to<br />

keep the cash-strapped centre<br />

open.<br />

Pre-school manager Rachell<br />

Laugesen said it faced a real<br />

risk of closure by the end of the<br />

year – unless it could get child<br />

numbers back up.<br />

The pre-school, on Glenroy St,<br />

has 54 children enrolled and is<br />

particularly short of children in<br />

INSIDE:<br />

its nursery where it has room for<br />

eight a day.<br />

Mrs Laugesen said the closure<br />

of Woolston businesses such as<br />

the post office, Kiwibank and<br />

ANZ had had an impact on its<br />

enrolment numbers.<br />

The eight staff had taken a<br />

7.5 per cent pay cut so that the<br />

pre-school could make it through<br />

to the next Government funding<br />

round in July, with one staff<br />

member also due to retire in<br />

June.<br />

“As a manager, putting it to<br />

my staff in the first place is not<br />

something I would have ever<br />

wanted to do but I had to,” Mrs<br />

Laugesen said.<br />

“I gave them time to think<br />

about it but because they are<br />

such passionate people and they<br />

love their centre, they love the<br />

families and the children they<br />

care for, we are choosing to fight<br />

to win. We are not going down<br />

without a fight.”<br />

Staff were also on cleaning<br />

duties two days a week and<br />

parents were helping with<br />

maintenance to cut costs.<br />

Mrs Laugesen said staff were<br />

passionate about the pre-school<br />

having been there for the long<br />

haul. She had been at the preschool<br />

26 years and the most<br />

recently hired staff member<br />

started seven years ago.<br />

She said many people<br />

probably didn’t know the preschool<br />

was there, so a big effort<br />

was being made to boost its<br />

visibility with posters, pamphlets<br />

and a Facebook page.<br />

Port Hills MP Ruth Dyson<br />

said she was approaching other<br />

local businesses asking them to<br />

put posters up advertising the<br />

pre-school and also seeing if<br />

they were in a position to make<br />

a donation to assist in the short<br />

term.<br />

“They operate a tremendous<br />

not-for-profit high quality<br />

pre-school which is really<br />

at the heart of the Woolston<br />

community,” she said.<br />

Bid to light up court<br />

TOM DOUDNEY<br />

A teenage basketballer with a<br />

famous namesake and his friends<br />

are hoping to get their local court<br />

lit up at night so they can play after<br />

dark.<br />

Shaquille Ausage, 17, who was<br />

named after American basketball<br />

star Shaquille O’Neal, is part of<br />

a group of teenagers who put the<br />

request for lights at the Hoon Hay<br />

Park basketball court to the Spreydon-Heathcote<br />

Community Board.<br />

The board has asked city council<br />

staff to investigate the idea.<br />

Ausage said he and his friends had<br />

been playing basketball at the park<br />

for about 10 years.<br />

“We have a lot of good basketball<br />

players here in our neighbourhood<br />

so other people from around Christchurch<br />

come and check out our<br />

court because they want to see the<br />

ballers who are here,” he said.<br />

“When it’s not daylight savings<br />

we have heaps of time to play but<br />

it’s just during the time when it<br />

gets dark early [that the lights are<br />

needed]. Some people are working<br />

so they don’t finish until 5pm or<br />

6pm.”<br />

Board chairwoman Karolin Potter<br />

said residents near the park were<br />

yet to be consulted but she believed<br />

there was a good chance of the idea<br />

being approved.<br />

Megan<br />

WOODS<br />

Member of Parliament for WIGRAM<br />

“So far the staff seem to think<br />

the actual basketball court are far<br />

enough away from the residents<br />

around the perimeter of the park for<br />

noise and light not to be a nuisance,”<br />

she said.<br />

Having more people on the basketball<br />

court until later would also<br />

make the park safer for others, she<br />

said.<br />

Cross Over Trust community liaison<br />

facilitator Roy Kenneally, who<br />

is supporting the teenager’s efforts,<br />

said Ausage had raised the idea with<br />

him about two years ago.<br />

“I was talking with [Ausage]<br />

about what they wanted in the community<br />

and he talked about the light<br />

and I thought ‘it’s going to be in the<br />

too hard basket’ but a year later I<br />

asked him again and he still said the<br />

light,” Mr Kenneally said.<br />

“So I thought if these guys are<br />

keen then lets start fundraising to<br />

see how keen they are and I thought<br />

that might deter them but it didn’t.”<br />

The teenagers had raised $1000<br />

through a variety of efforts including<br />

selling snow cones, sausage<br />

sizzles, helping a woman move<br />

house and helping with setting up<br />

and packing up a community event.<br />

They were also going to help the<br />

city council run a three-on-three<br />

basketball tournament at the park on<br />

HELPING<br />

HAND: Keen<br />

helpers<br />

came out in<br />

force to help<br />

the Rowley<br />

Resource<br />

Centre move<br />

its contents<br />

to the new<br />

centre in<br />

September.<br />

Help Rowley centre rebuild<br />

garage for more events<br />

TOM DOUDNEY<br />

Rowley Resource Centre is<br />

calling on the community to help<br />

it raise money for the rebuild<br />

of a garage so it can hold more<br />

events.<br />

In September, the centre<br />

shifted to a new site about 250m<br />

down the road from its old one.<br />

However, the garage at the<br />

new site was old and had been<br />

damaged in the earthquakes. It is<br />

expected to cost about $50,000<br />

to replace it.<br />

The centre has been offering<br />

social services for the last 25<br />

years in the area, which is known<br />

as a lower socio-economic area.<br />

It hopes to use the garage as a<br />

multi-purpose workshop space<br />

for various activities including<br />

its men’s shed, women’s maintenance<br />

courses, arts classes and<br />

literacy classes.<br />

The centre plans to hold a<br />

series of fundraisers until they<br />

have enough money for the<br />

rebuild and it is hoped the community<br />

will take an active role in<br />

supporting these.<br />

Centre manager Donna<br />

McAleer said at present all its<br />

activities had to be held in the<br />

building’s lounge.<br />

“Now we really need another<br />

space so that some of the development<br />

work we are doing can<br />

convene,” she said.<br />

“This is why we want the community<br />

behind it to raise funds so<br />

that they are proactive, involved<br />

and collaborative in the decision<br />

of what the shed is going to look<br />

like.”<br />

The centre has been busy<br />

fundraising already and a market<br />

day was held on Saturday. Locals<br />

were encouraged to rent a<br />

stall space with the money raised<br />

going towards the garage.<br />

The centre has some money<br />

for the garage from an EQC payout<br />

and has also applied to the<br />

New Zealand Lotteries Commission<br />

for funding.<br />

HERITAGE AWARDS<br />

FINALIST<br />

The Linwood Community<br />

Centre on Worcester St is<br />

a finalist in the biennial<br />

Canterbury Heritage<br />

Awards, in the public realm<br />

saved and restored category.<br />

The building is one of 35<br />

finalists, with the winners to<br />

be announced in a ceremony<br />

at the newly restored Great<br />

Hall in the Christchurch<br />

Arts Centre on June 9.<br />

MORE PARKING<br />

SPACE LIKELY<br />

Additional parking spaces<br />

could be created on Jack<br />

Hinton Drive in Addington,<br />

by removing yellow no<br />

parking lines, it has been<br />

suggested. The Spreydon-<br />

Heathcote Community<br />

Board is seeking advice<br />

from city council staff on<br />

the idea which was put<br />

forward by Riccarton-<br />

Wigram Community Board<br />

member Debbie Mora. Ms<br />

Mora said that parking<br />

restrictions on the drive<br />

were understandable when<br />

there were events being held<br />

at the nearby Horncastle<br />

Arena or Addington<br />

Raceway. However, she<br />

believed parking could be<br />

made available during the<br />

day time with road cones<br />

placed at night when events<br />

were on.<br />

Amputee’s story told<br />

FRASER WALKER-PEARCE<br />

When Trixie Wuts was born<br />

her parents had a very difficult<br />

decision to make whether or not<br />

to amputate both of her legs to the<br />

knee.<br />

On the advice of medical professionals,<br />

Trixie’s parents Anton<br />

and Margot Wuts decided amputation<br />

was the best solution.<br />

Their experience has been<br />

documented in a children’s book<br />

that they wrote, called Little Jellybean.<br />

It is being distributed by the<br />

Amputee Society of Canterbury<br />

and Westland to help families facing<br />

a similar choice.<br />

The society helped get a $5000<br />

grant for the publishing and<br />

distribution of the book from the<br />

Artificial Limb Service.<br />

Trixie was diagnosed with distal<br />

arthrogryposis before she was<br />

born, meaning she had crooked or<br />

hooked joints in her feet.<br />

She had many procedures done<br />

when she was born, which attempted<br />

to correct the deformities<br />

in both of her feet, but they were<br />

largely unsuccessful.<br />

The surgery however, was and<br />

Trixie now “leads a full and active<br />

life” with her new feet.<br />

Amputee Society of Canterbury<br />

and Westland president<br />

Mark Bruce said the more families<br />

that can be reached with the<br />

book, the better.<br />

“It’s about raising awareness<br />

for parents in a situation where<br />

their child is very unwell. The<br />

story is mainly about the parents<br />

having to make an incredibly<br />

tough decision to help their children,”<br />

he said.<br />

Mr Bruce said the book will<br />

become an invaluable source for<br />

those looking for support.<br />

“If you have a young one with<br />

an amputation or have a young<br />

one about to undergo an amputation<br />

then this is a great resource.<br />

“The future of the federation is<br />

in its youth . . . If we can affect<br />

just one family with the help of<br />

this book, then it’s been a worthwhile<br />

venture,” he said.<br />

The society are making copies<br />

‘Just a state of mind’ for centenarian<br />

TOM DOUDNEY<br />

Stay away from television,<br />

spend more time in the garden<br />

and you might just live as long<br />

as Jean Roberts.<br />

The Linwood resident recently<br />

celebrated her 100th birthday.<br />

Asked about the secret to her<br />

longevity, she said is it was “just<br />

a state of mind.”<br />

“You don’t sit on the couch<br />

and watch TV all day, no, I am<br />

out in the garden and I do all<br />

that sort of thing. That is all it<br />

is really – just keep going and<br />

enjoy every day.”<br />

Mrs Roberts still lives in<br />

her own home, does her own<br />

cooking and cleaning and only<br />

needs help to do her lawns.<br />

She is currently<br />

working on<br />

staining her<br />

deck.<br />

She celebrated<br />

her birthday<br />

with friends<br />

and family at<br />

the Woolston<br />

Club where she<br />

likes to enjoy a<br />

roast meal and<br />

a shandy every<br />

Wednesday.<br />

Receiving a<br />

card from the<br />

Queen had been<br />

a highlight for<br />

her.<br />

“[It had a] beautiful photo<br />

Halswell Residential College<br />

will be undergoing a $9 million<br />

upgrade with construction<br />

expected to be completed by<br />

January.<br />

Four new family-style villas<br />

will be built to accommodate up<br />

to 32 students.<br />

The plan is to replace the<br />

institutional-style accommodation<br />

blocks and help enhance the<br />

school’s education programme.<br />

The new redevelopment is designed<br />

to have a multi-purpose<br />

learning environment allowing<br />

students and staff to be together<br />

in a welcoming and multi-functional<br />

space.<br />

It will include earthquake<br />

absolutely<br />

beautiful in it<br />

and she will<br />

days up through<br />

Halswell Residential College<br />

provides round-the-clock special<br />

education for children and young<br />

people with complex needs.<br />

The plan behind the redevelopment<br />

is to strengthen the school’s<br />

students who need significant<br />

curriculum adoption due to an underlying<br />

intellectual impairment.<br />

IMPRESSIVE: Last year’s Heathcote River clean-up day got a lot of<br />

rubbish out of the river, and this year’s event will be even bigger.<br />

River clean-up plan<br />

Hundreds of volunteers are<br />

expected at the inaugural<br />

‘Mother of All Clean Ups’ on<br />

Saturday to try to improve the<br />

quality of the city’s waterways.<br />

The clean-up will be held<br />

along the banks of the Heathcote<br />

and Avon rivers and the estuary.<br />

It is jointly organised by the<br />

Avon-Ōtākaro Network, the<br />

Ōpāwaho Heathcote River Network<br />

and the Avon-Heathcote<br />

Estuary Ihutai Trust.<br />

It follows a pilot programme<br />

organised last year by the trust<br />

and community groups on the<br />

banks of the Heathcote River.<br />

The community groups and<br />

sports clubs which have put up<br />

their hands so far have each been<br />

allocated specific reaches of the<br />

rivers or estuary and volunteers<br />

will be expected to spend at least<br />

an hour collecting litter. Work<br />

at each of the locations will take<br />

place at various times between<br />

9am and 3pm.<br />

There will be several ‘thank<br />

you’ events around the city starting<br />

at 3pm on the same day.<br />

For more information on the<br />

clean up including times and<br />

locations, visit www.estuary.org.<br />

Trust to keep<br />

post shop going<br />

TOM DOUDNEY<br />

Residents of the Linwood<br />

Village area will continue to<br />

have a post shop in their midst,<br />

at least for the time being,<br />

thanks to a community trust.<br />

Te Whare Roimata took over<br />

operations at Stanmore Book<br />

& Post Shop yesterday and is<br />

working on plans to keep it going<br />

as a community-run social<br />

enterprise.<br />

The post shop was run for<br />

the last 27 years by Berwyn<br />

Stevenson but he retired on<br />

Friday.<br />

Te Whare Roimata coordinator<br />

Jenny Smith said<br />

keeping the post shop going<br />

would be a challenge but it was<br />

important for the community.<br />

“The area was very badly<br />

damaged by the February [2011]<br />

quake and we lost over two<br />

thirds of the shopping centre,”<br />

she said.<br />

“It’s a post shop that services<br />

the local area and many<br />

older people, and it has been an<br />

important service and meeting<br />

place for that community for<br />

many years.”<br />

The post shop will be operating<br />

on shorter opening hours<br />

of 9am-3pm for the next month<br />

but will move back to 9am-5pm<br />

after that.<br />

Ms Smith said it had been a<br />

frantic effort to get everything<br />

organised and for people to<br />

learn the systems in time to take<br />

over yesterday.<br />

“We have only had about 10<br />

days to get to this point.”<br />

The trust intends to consult<br />

the community on possible<br />

income generating ventures to<br />

support the post shop into the<br />

future.<br />

The Hagley-Ferrymead<br />

Community Board has granted<br />

Te Whare Roimata $5000 from<br />

its Discretionary Response<br />

Fund for starting the project,<br />

including a feasibility study to<br />

assess its ongoing viability.<br />

Board chairwoman Sara<br />

Templeton said the Linwood<br />

Village area had been under<br />

“significant stress” for some<br />

time but the trust’s move was a<br />

positive step.<br />

“The post shop closing would<br />

be one more real hardship for<br />

that community,” she said.<br />

PROGRESS: Members of the St Martins community were on site<br />

yesterday to mark the beginning of work on their new community centre.<br />

Work starts for new<br />

community centre<br />

Work has begun on the new<br />

community centre for St Martins.<br />

The new centre is being built<br />

on the site of the old St Martin’s<br />

Voluntary Library in Wades Ave<br />

and is expected to be completed<br />

by the end of year.<br />

The voluntary library building<br />

had been badly damaged in the<br />

earthquakes and was demolished<br />

under an order from the Canterbury<br />

Earthquake Recovery<br />

Authority.<br />

It includes space for the voluntary<br />

library, community use<br />

areas, a kitchen, toilets, storage<br />

and outdoor breakout spaces.<br />

“This facility will be a real hub<br />

for the residents with carefully<br />

designed community spaces<br />

and a welcoming exterior,’’ city<br />

council community capital delivery<br />

manager Darren Moses said.<br />

“The spaces within the building<br />

have been designed with<br />

residents in mind and will cater<br />

for a wide range of activities<br />

such as yoga and dance classes,<br />

community meetings and choir<br />

practice.”<br />

The building was designed<br />

by Melbourne-based Plus<br />

Architecture.<br />

The demolition took place in<br />

2014 and funding for the new<br />

building was approved as part of<br />

the city council’s facilities repair<br />

and rebuild programme.<br />

Phillip Mitchell<br />

‘Filthy’ work with pipes and plumbing<br />

AT WORK: Phillip Mitchell has been a plumbing tutor at the Ara Institute<br />

of Canterbury for many years. At 73, he is still going strong working three<br />

days a week. ​<br />

Phillip Mitchell has had his hand in the city’s pipes<br />

for half a century. He talks with Matthew Salmons<br />

about his life as a plumber, being a tutor and<br />

winning the Graeme Victor Smith Outstanding<br />

Contribution to the Industry Award<br />

Well Phillip, you’re clearly<br />

the plumbing master around<br />

here, but why did you decide<br />

to get into the trade in the<br />

first place?<br />

My father went with me to a<br />

vocational guidance counsellor<br />

in the square. The guy that was<br />

interviewing me said ‘I know<br />

a bloke by the name of Athol<br />

Jamieson.’ He knew him on a<br />

fairly friendly basis so I went<br />

and saw him. He had a fairly<br />

large company and said ‘there’s<br />

a job there if you want it.’ I’d<br />

seen plumbers, we’d not long<br />

had the sewerage put on in the<br />

house and a flush toilet put in,<br />

which you guys would take for<br />

granted now. I was fascinated.<br />

So I thought ‘it’s not a bad idea’,<br />

and that’s what it was.<br />

So when did you start your<br />

apprenticeship?<br />

In the days when I did my apprenticeship,<br />

you signed up for<br />

what they called a 12,000 hour<br />

apprenticeship which equates to<br />

six years. In that era, when you<br />

got to your fifth year you could<br />

sit your license and if you passed<br />

your exam you didn’t have to do<br />

your sixth year, so there was a<br />

lot of incentive there. In those<br />

days it was about five pounds a<br />

week which probably equates to,<br />

I don’t know, $200 these days. A<br />

tradesman now could get about<br />

$30 an hour, about $1200 a week,<br />

and an apprentice, well they<br />

probably get more than $200, so<br />

a lot of incentive there to pass. I<br />

spent most of my apprenticeship<br />

under a guy named Bill Walsh,<br />

an Irish plumber, and also with<br />

his brother John. They were<br />

ship’s plumbers, they were fastidious.<br />

If something happened it<br />

was either right or it was wrong.<br />

And after you finished your<br />

apprenticeship did you stay<br />

with the same company?<br />

No, after I finished I left<br />

plumbing for a wee while and I<br />

did quantity surveying. It was a<br />

very good experience and I was<br />

fortunate that I had the trades<br />

experience to do it. It was very<br />

enjoyable.<br />

Did you work on any big<br />

projects?<br />

I did, it was Wilkins and<br />

Davies I was working for at the<br />

time. The buildings at Canterbury<br />

University were being built<br />

then, and we worked on them.<br />

That was straight out of my<br />

apprenticeship, so when I left<br />

that I went to learn about drain<br />

laying. I’ve always enjoyed drain<br />

laying. When you’re doing it, you<br />

feel like you’ve achieved more<br />

than you would working in a<br />

bathroom. I did that for the best<br />

part of a year, then I put the sewerage<br />

into John Walsh’s house.<br />

That was the practical part of<br />

my exam. I started working for a<br />

drain laying firm then, but they<br />

went out of business, so at about<br />

23 I started working for myself.<br />

You knew nothing then, but that<br />

was beside the point because<br />

you thought you did and you had<br />

to get experience the hard way.<br />

So I was working for myself for<br />

a while and I was doing some<br />

tutoring at night. When you’re<br />

tutoring and still in the trades,<br />

to the students, you’re still a<br />

plumber.<br />

Working full time and tutoring<br />

at nights, it must’ve taken a<br />

toll on your social life?<br />

I was young, I was only about<br />

still enjoyable after more than 50 years<br />

27 when I finished that and when<br />

you’re young you could burn the<br />

candle at both ends a bit.<br />

Where did you do your tutoring?<br />

In town, it was called Christchurch<br />

Technical College then<br />

- it has had about three name<br />

changes since then. It was only<br />

one night a week at that stage.<br />

That was about 1969, then me<br />

and another guy started commercial<br />

drain laying. We had a lot of<br />

fun, we did all of the drainage<br />

at QE II which was a monstrous<br />

job, but we just got stuck in and<br />

got on with it. We were young<br />

and wishful, ‘of course we can<br />

bloody well do it.’<br />

Far out, was it only you two<br />

doing the job?<br />

No, we had 10 staff on. We updated<br />

the Kaiapoi sewerage plant<br />

as well. It was physical, hard<br />

work but enjoyable. You were<br />

outside all the time. Sometimes<br />

you wore yourself out, but that’s<br />

just life. We formed a partnership<br />

called Mitchell and Rodgers. You<br />

used to be filthy everyday, but<br />

that’s part of your life and you<br />

hope that you can look back on<br />

your life and have enjoyed it.<br />

How did it feel to receive that<br />

award?<br />

I thought why me? I’d started<br />

in 2005 with just me, with another<br />

tutor joining in 2006 and<br />

another in 2007. We now have<br />

eight, virtually a new tutor every<br />

year. We do work for the Schools<br />

Organisation and Ara managed<br />

apprenticeships in plumbing and<br />

gas fitting. We’ve grown and<br />

grown, I have to ask myself, is<br />

this real?<br />

It’s been an absolutely fantastic<br />

journey building this thing, I<br />

have had some really great support,<br />

and I didn’t do it alone by<br />

any stretch of the imagination.<br />

I’m putting back what I got out<br />

of the industry. The biggest thing<br />

for me is the recognition of offsite<br />

job training.<br />

Having been in the industry<br />

so long, what sort of changes<br />

have you seen?<br />

Basically, when I started there<br />

was a horrendous amount of<br />

lead; it was the material of the<br />

time for waste pipes, sewer pipes<br />

and roof flashings. I only know<br />

of two plumbers who got lead<br />

poisoning. After that, it graduated<br />

to Copper. Copper’s priced<br />

itself out of the market now,<br />

but it’s a marvellous material to<br />

work with. We used to have to<br />

fabricate everything, but now it’s<br />

plastic and made fit for purpose.<br />

The skill sets have changed due<br />

to the change of materials.<br />

And your family has been<br />

supportive for all this time,<br />

tutoring and working?<br />

I could never have done it<br />

without the support of my wife,<br />

Beth, she’s always worked in the<br />

background.<br />

Where did you meet your<br />

wife?<br />

Through one of my cousins,<br />

she was a friend of hers, they<br />

bought us together, many years<br />

ago now but that’s alright. We<br />

went to the pictures, the usual<br />

courting thing, it was different<br />

then than it is today, 6 o’clock<br />

closing, it was the 6 o’clock<br />

swill. We went to dances and the<br />

pictures, things like that, nothing<br />

out of the ordinary.<br />

Where did you grow up?<br />

In Marshland Rd, bottom end,<br />

so I’m not very far from home.<br />

There wasn’t many houses. We<br />

were in one of the houses at the<br />

bottom end. It was still basically<br />

farmlands, was still in the country<br />

then. Shirley Lodge it was<br />

called then, I don’t know what<br />

it’s called now, we were midway<br />

between that and Shirley Rd, but<br />

we still lived in the country.<br />

And where did you go to<br />

school?<br />

Shirley Primary of course,<br />

my great-grandparents on one<br />

side took up land on the side of<br />

Marshland Rd, so it was pretty<br />

family orientated from there.<br />

Every kid’s good at school, I was<br />

just an average kid at school.<br />

I didn’t excel at anything. My<br />

mother would’ve thought I was<br />

outstanding.<br />

Has your passion for plumbing<br />

been passed on to your<br />

kids?<br />

No, I’ve got two daughters and<br />

one grandson who is 32. I used to<br />

take him on work experience, he<br />

enjoyed it, and he could’ve done<br />

it blind, but he said there was<br />

too much to learn. But for the<br />

students, I’ve chosen my path,<br />

I have to sell them the industry.<br />

I have to tell them the pluses<br />

and the fun they’ll have on the<br />

RECOGNITION:<br />

Phillip Mitchell<br />

received the<br />

Graeme Victor<br />

Smith Outstanding<br />

Contribution<br />

to the Industry<br />

Award last<br />

month, at the<br />

New Zealand<br />

Plumbing Awards.<br />

journey. You go to work for fun,<br />

if you don’t enjoy your work, get<br />

another job! I’ve got to be passionate<br />

about the industry.<br />

Not looking at retirement?<br />

Well, I’m only working three<br />

days a week, I treat it as a hobby<br />

now, not a job. I’m going to be 74<br />

in a fortnight, so I guess I’ll have<br />

to sooner or later, but I’m still<br />

enjoying it. You’ve got to look<br />

at it and say ‘well, I better pull<br />

back’. It’s such a privilege to see<br />

it working so well. Me getting the<br />

award was a positive for Ara Institute<br />

of Canterbury, showing<br />

that tutors and support staff are<br />

readily available to keep things<br />

moving forward.<br />

ORGANIC HORTICULTURE COURSES<br />

Instruction in organic horticulture is<br />

now well established at the Lincolnbased<br />

Organic Training College. The<br />

next year-long course, which begins<br />

on 1st August, will be the ninth<br />

intake for the college. Students need<br />

no prior qualifications or experience<br />

to commence Year One and can<br />

study full or part-time. Those who<br />

have some horticultural background<br />

can go straight into Year Two.<br />

An added appeal of the course is that<br />

all fees are under $500, and full time<br />

students are eligible to apply for a<br />

loan or allowance through Studylink.<br />

Course Director Bill Martin says it<br />

works well to start the course year in<br />

the spring. “The organic horticulture<br />

course is all about growing so we<br />

want to start the course in spring<br />

when it is the right time to begin<br />

planting.”<br />

Year One students get plenty of<br />

hands on training in subjects such as<br />

sowing and planting organic crops,<br />

soil management and composting.<br />

The Year Two students have the<br />

option of using land and facilities<br />

on the Biological Husbandry Unit<br />

(BHU) Farm to grow and sell their<br />

own certified produce – a semicommercial<br />

venture that gives<br />

students a real taste of organic<br />

horticulture as a business. The<br />

students grow vegetables under the<br />

guidance of a mentor and sell them<br />

at a weekly stall at Lincoln University<br />

“The Year Two programme gives the<br />

students experience in a commercial<br />

environment without any risk. It’s<br />

the icing on the cake for a lot of the<br />

students here,” says Bill Martin.<br />

As well as the year-long organic<br />

horticulture courses a distance<br />

(correspondence) programme in<br />

organics is also available.<br />

The Organic Training College is<br />

located at the Biological Husbandry<br />

Unit at Lincoln University. There<br />

are 10 hectares of certified organic<br />

land as well as greenhouses, tunnel<br />

houses and research areas.<br />

Housing subsidy still needed<br />

A Government heating and<br />

insulation subsidy programme<br />

comes to an end in June. Community<br />

Energy Action Charitable<br />

Trust chief executive Caroline<br />

Shone writes this week’s column<br />

about the importance of the<br />

programme and why it should<br />

continue in some form.<br />

SOAP<br />

BOX<br />

Shelter is one<br />

of the most basic<br />

of human needs<br />

and the Universal<br />

Declaration<br />

of Human Rights<br />

says that everyone<br />

has the right<br />

to housing.<br />

It can be debated that housing<br />

that makes people sick, isn’t housing<br />

at all.<br />

However houses that are damp,<br />

houses that are cold, with the<br />

people living in them unable to<br />

heat them to an adequate temperature<br />

to keep them healthy, are<br />

a reality for many households in<br />

Christchurch.<br />

The old, the young and the sick<br />

suffer most in those houses.<br />

We all know the result.<br />

Every winter sees many residents<br />

ending up in hospital with<br />

preventable cold-related health issues.<br />

Even healthy people get sick<br />

more often in those cold, damp<br />

houses.<br />

From experience we know that<br />

installing insulation and heating<br />

in people’s homes especially those<br />

with health conditions will reduce<br />

hospitalisations, delivering cost<br />

savings to the health system.<br />

Installing insulation and heating<br />

is a one-off cost but the benefits<br />

last a long time, saving money on<br />

health and saving lives every year.<br />

The Government through the<br />

Energy Efficiency and Conservation<br />

Authority (EECA) have spent<br />

$450 million nationwide on insulation<br />

and heating subsidies over<br />

the last couple of years.<br />

And we know it has made a<br />

difference.<br />

The current subsidy programme<br />

comes to an end in June this year.<br />

It would be fantastic if subsidies<br />

would be available in the future<br />

for those who need insulation.<br />

It’s a great way for Christchurch<br />

people to help those in their community<br />

who need a bit of help to<br />

create a warm, dry, healthy home.<br />

Hoon Hay resident Gary<br />

Knight writes about a plan to<br />

intensify housing in Linwood.<br />

A major anomaly exists in<br />

respect of an upgrade of<br />

health and social services in<br />

Linwood.<br />

The proposed service hub in<br />

Eastgate mall, designated as<br />

The Loft, includes Barnados,<br />

Family Help Trust and NZ<br />

Red Cross Community<br />

Outreach as well as doctors,<br />

nurses, midwives, pharmacy<br />

assistance, a physio and<br />

rehab area, and mental health<br />

counselling. This bears<br />

testimony to the extent of this<br />

HAVE YOUR SAY: If you have<br />

an opinion on a current issue,<br />

send your views to tom.<br />

doudney@starmedia.kiwi<br />

multi-purpose innovation.<br />

The Loft hub will effectively<br />

combine mental, physical,<br />

emotional, social and daily<br />

health issues all under one<br />

community venue.<br />

This concept, however, is<br />

undermined by the revelation<br />

of an abundance of low quality<br />

terrace-style housing units to<br />

flood Linwood.<br />

Engineered by a Governmentappointed<br />

independent hearings<br />

panel to fast-track a city<br />

planning rule review, resultant<br />

in notification to the city<br />

council to build up Linwood,<br />

this is ill-conceived legislature<br />

and demeaning to the area.<br />

The social services hub,<br />

along with local schools, suburban<br />

centres and bus routes<br />

will be disadvantaged by the<br />

influx of a myriad of extra<br />

personnel at these junctures, as<br />

well as parking problems due<br />

to increased traffic volume in<br />

many Linwood areas.<br />

In respect of this issue,<br />

therefore, reality must prevail<br />

over the issue of increased<br />

Linwood housing of this<br />

nature.

Changing facilities upgraded<br />

for Halswell United<br />

The Halswell United A.F.C<br />

club changing rooms<br />

have undergone a new<br />

transformation.<br />

The changing rooms<br />

based at Halswell Domain<br />

were built in 1964 and up<br />

until the upgrade they were<br />

in “a pretty sorry state,”<br />

general manager Sam Bunn<br />

said.<br />

The upgrade took about<br />

two months with donations<br />

from Asia Pacific Football<br />

Academy Andy and Jane<br />

Smith who supplied the joinery at<br />

a reduced rate.<br />

Club president James Maguire<br />

said he was very proud of the<br />

new changing room facilities.<br />

He said the generous input of a<br />

long-standing player and member<br />

Gordan Murdoch made the<br />

new changing rooms possible.<br />

“This upgrade represents the<br />

start of our ongoing work to<br />

refresh and update our facilities<br />

as we look forward to the<br />

next 50 years of Halswell<br />

football,” he said.<br />

Mainland Football competition<br />

manager Colin Grant<br />

said he was proud of what<br />

the Halswell community<br />

had done with the changing<br />

facilities.<br />

“Especially the volunteers<br />

who have put their time and<br />

effort to make the club better<br />

than it already is.”<br />

He is certain within a<br />

few years the club will<br />

attract more players due to<br />

the endeavours of their strong<br />

committee.<br />

day was a close one with a 4-5<br />

Haircuts for Haircuts<br />

Celebrating 30 years of great service<br />

Haircuts for Haircuts are<br />

celebrating – this year, they<br />

turn 30. That’s 30 years of<br />

reasonably-priced great<br />

haircutting and 30 years of awesome,<br />

friendly customer service.<br />

It is rare for a small business to be so<br />

successful for so long - Michelle has been<br />

the driving force behind the two cutting<br />

bars for the three decades. She believes<br />

they have done so well because they go<br />

above and beyond for their customers.<br />

“We are already affordable, but we<br />

offer discounts for pensioners, university<br />

students and children on top of that,”<br />

she explains. “We are here for the whole<br />

family and we offer a welcoming, friendly<br />

atmosphere to make the experience<br />

enjoyable.”<br />

It’s easy and convenient, too. Because<br />

they are located in the Bush Inn Centre<br />

and South City Mall, getting a haircut can<br />

be combined with shopping and running<br />

errands. They are open mall hours, 7 days<br />

a week and there’s no need to be tied to an<br />

appointment. Just head on in, take your<br />

place and sit and relax while you wait.<br />

There are usually 4 to 5 stylists working at<br />

any time, so you’re never waiting for long.<br />

But it’s much more than that – all their staff<br />

are fully-qualified, professional stylists and<br />

they focus on nothing but hair cutting.<br />

That means they have expertise and will<br />

take the time to find out what you want and<br />

give you the best advice. They can deliver<br />

trend-of-the-moment cuts or whatever a<br />

client requests. They pride themselves on<br />

the positive experience they offer so that<br />

clients leave them looking good and feeling<br />

great. The salons are up to the minute, but<br />

Michelle has given them a taste of the past,<br />

too, installing traditional barber’s chairs<br />

in recognition of her 30 years’ anniversary<br />

so the customers get to combine the<br />

traditional with the ultra-modern.<br />

Michelle knows that it’s customer loyalty<br />

that has kept her in business for so long,<br />

and repays customers with a loyalty scheme<br />

where every 8th cut is free. She also offers<br />

styling products so you can recreate your<br />

salon look at home but her real aim is to<br />

cater for the community by providing<br />

fabulous haircuts for the whole family in<br />

a friendly atmosphere and all at affordable<br />

prices.<br />

Call in to the Bush Inn salon on<br />

the corner of Riccarton and Waimari<br />

Road (telephone 3487008) or the South<br />

Be More<br />

Effective<br />

with Debbie<br />

<strong>May</strong>o-Smith<br />

Manage<br />

your time<br />

How can you effectively manage<br />

your busy day? Time<br />

management is not necessarily<br />

working “harder,” but rather,<br />

“smarter.” Here are five time<br />

management mistakes we<br />

should all avoid to increase our<br />

daily success both on and off the<br />

job.<br />

1. Starting your day without a<br />

plan of action. Time<br />

management is doing the right<br />

things initially.<br />

2. Losing balance in your life.<br />

Our lives comprise seven vital<br />

areas that need balance. These<br />

areas include health, family,<br />

financial, intellectual, social,<br />

professional, and spiritual.<br />

3. Working with a messy desk or<br />

work area. Studies have shown<br />

that the person who works with<br />

a messy desk spends, on<br />

average, one-and-a-half hours<br />

per day looking for things or<br />

being distracted by things.<br />

4. Getting insufficient sleep.<br />

Studies show that nearly 75 per<br />

cent of us complain on a regular<br />

basis that we are tired.<br />

5. Giving up a lunch break. Many<br />

do not take a lunch break.<br />

Studies have shown that after<br />

doing what we do for several<br />

hours, we start to “dull out.”<br />

A lunch break, even a short<br />

15-minute break, gives us a<br />

chance to get our batteries<br />

charged up again to more<br />

effectively handle.<br />

Bottom line: Prioritise! End<br />

your day with a list of things to<br />

do tomorrow. Ensure they are in<br />

order of importance and<br />

timeliness.<br />

HELP YOUR CHILD GROW<br />

- IN CONFIDENCE<br />

Life skills programme for children.<br />

Widely recognised trades training<br />

The <strong>Southern</strong> Institute of<br />

Technology Christchurch campus<br />

in Hornby offers a great range of<br />

education possibilities for those<br />

looking for a trade’s qualification.<br />

If you are keen on getting involved<br />

in Construction, we offer the National<br />

Certificate in Building, Construction and<br />

Allied Trades Skills, a 12 week, Level 2<br />

programme. This programme provides a<br />

pathway for students to enter into a range<br />

of trade-related professions and its main<br />

focus is teaching them the practical skills<br />

they require for further study.<br />

We also offer the Level 3 Certificate<br />

in Construction, where students spend<br />

three days on campus and two days out in<br />

the community on work experience. All<br />

students are involved in building a house<br />

from scratch, ensuring sound practical<br />

skills in conjunction with classroom<br />

learning.<br />

Our programmes are widely recognized<br />

within related industries and SIT has a<br />

proven record of students moving into<br />

employment or apprenticeships.<br />

Courses are NZQA approved and<br />

students are eligible for student loans and<br />

allowances.<br />

Spaces for midyear <strong>2016</strong> are filling fast<br />

and demand for affordable trades training<br />

is high.<br />

To find out more, discuss options or tour<br />

the facilities, call 0800 TO STUDY (0800<br />

campus at 60 Waterloo Road Hornby.<br />

Do your children lack selfconfidence,<br />

or perhaps have<br />

so much energy that they need<br />

an outlet for it? Development<br />

through drama is the ideal approach to<br />

teach confidence and channel youthful<br />

energy while building self-esteem.<br />

The Helen O’Grady Drama Academy has<br />

been in New Zealand for 32 years. This<br />

highly regarded worldwide programme<br />

helps students aged 5 to 17 fulfil their<br />

potential by acting confidently and speaking<br />

clearly. This unique, self-development<br />

programme helps achieve invaluable life<br />

skills. The confident, articulate child makes<br />

friends easily, accepts challenges and new<br />

directions. Confident children become<br />

well-rounded adults.<br />

Our fully qualified teachers are trained<br />

in the Helen O’Grady Drama system,<br />

they ensure each child is encouraged<br />

and valued in a warm, positive learning<br />

environment. Lessons stimulate and<br />

motivate students without the exam or<br />

peer group pressure. Weekly class activities<br />

include speech training, creative movement<br />

and improvisation. Our Youth Theatre<br />

programme encourages the development<br />

of leadership and organisational skills.<br />

Three terms of the year cover the selfdevelopment<br />

programme and in the fourth<br />

term all students prepare a performance<br />

for parents and friends. We also offer<br />

Trinity College London examinations as<br />

an option for those who wish to pursue an<br />

international qualification.<br />

Our safe structured learning environment<br />

values student individuality and<br />

encourages team<br />

building. Most<br />

Device to Prevent Snoring<br />

Why put up with broken sleep,<br />

when help is at hand with<br />

Snorex, an appliance that<br />

prevents snoring, sleep<br />

apnoea, and dry and raw throats.<br />

Snorex is custom-fitted to your mouth for<br />

comfort, and a follow up service is provided.<br />

Denise Lim has been involved with Snores<br />

for 19 years and has had a 98% success rate<br />

with people using the appliance. Snoring can<br />

be a health hazard, causing sleep apnoea,<br />

where the person actually stops breathing for<br />

short periods.<br />

It can cause short-term memory loss,<br />

tiredness and contribute to high blood<br />

pressure.<br />

The Snorex device does not feel restrictive,<br />

is non-invasive and carries a money-back<br />

guarantee.<br />

Many people are referred by ear, nose<br />

and throat specialists, however, anyone can<br />

phone for an appointment.<br />

For an information pack or to discuss<br />

the Snorex further, phone Denise Lim<br />

on 383 0994 or check out the website<br />

A Mother of All Gifts<br />

Take the worry out of Mother’s Day!<br />

Wondering what to buy Mum<br />

when a box of chocolates or<br />

hand-cream won’t do another<br />

year round?<br />

A clever Lower Hutt woman has given me<br />

a new idea. When many of our mothers are<br />

feeling the ache of ageing limbs, or suffer<br />

with chronic pain or circulatory problems,<br />

Jenny Watson’s Aircycle is a perfect self-help<br />

answer. It’s totally transportable, folding to<br />

fit your pocket, simple in concept, easy to use<br />

and acclaimed by a growing number of users<br />

in its efficacy, and it can be easily posted in an<br />

envelope if Mum lives a distance away.<br />

For painful hands, feet or legs this small<br />

therapeutic device is used when sitting, most<br />

effective when used in several short spells a<br />

day - no need for long tough workouts. Jenny<br />

says, “Many delighted people report that it<br />

helps relieve arthritic pain and other problems<br />

such as cramp and ankle swelling. We know<br />

that regular use while sitting watching TV<br />

can begin the progress of stronger legs, better<br />

balance, comfortable walking and freedom<br />

from discomfort. It’s an easy way to manage<br />

a range of health conditions – it offers<br />

relief. Any of us can use the Aircycle almost<br />

anywhere.<br />

Jenny showed me some of the many<br />

grateful letters she’d received. Often Aircycle<br />

users have spent heavily on medications<br />

and therapy before discovering this simple<br />

effective, drug-free device. Jenny says, “News<br />

is fast spreading by word of mouth, but we<br />

still have a way to go.”<br />

Well, I say, time others knew about it. Well<br />

done Jenny! Mum – you’re going to like this!<br />

SOUTHERN VIEW<br />

Care, compassion and skill<br />

define Nurse Maude<br />

Nurse Maude has been caring for the people of Canterbury since 1896.<br />

Much of this nursing care<br />

and support has been in the<br />

community so people can stay<br />

in their own homes and retain<br />

as much independence as possible.<br />

Every year millions of kilometres are<br />

clocked up as nurses and home support<br />

workers cross the Canterbury region<br />

providing personal, domestic, nursing and<br />

specialist palliative care.<br />

“All the nursing and homecare services<br />

we provide, whether it be in the community<br />

or in the Nurse Maude Hospital or Nurse<br />

Maude Hospice are founded on the core<br />

principles of partnership, respect and<br />

nursing excellence,” says Jim Magee, chief<br />

executive of Nurse Maude.<br />

“Our unique strength lies in the ability<br />

of our people to blend that with the values<br />

which motivated Sybilla Maude in 1896;<br />

that the needs of the patients and clients are<br />

met with quality nursing care and support<br />

provided by skilled and compassionate staff.”<br />

“The broad spectrum of care provided by<br />

Nurse Maude encompasses the two most<br />

vulnerable groups in our society, the very<br />

young and the elderly.”<br />

Nurse Maude has always been a<br />

collaborative organisation, providing care<br />

in partnership with general practitioners,<br />

practice nurses, district health boards, ACC<br />

and the Ministry of Health among others.<br />

“It is through improved communication<br />

and the sharing of information that these<br />

relationships continue to strengthen for<br />

the benefit of our patients and clients,” says<br />

Magee.<br />

From the frontline staff who exhibit<br />

that blend of expertise, efficiency and<br />

compassion which makes Nurse Maude so<br />

special through to those who support them<br />

in administrative roles and Nurse Maude’s<br />

volunteers who give so generously of their<br />

time and talent, the organisation that is<br />

Nurse Maude attracts enormous respect in<br />

the community.<br />

While the technology, processes and<br />

systems used to provide that care today<br />

would no doubt astonish Sibylla Maude,<br />

there is little doubt that 120 years on that<br />

the organisation that bears her name and<br />

continues her legacy of care would meet<br />

with her wholehearted approval.

Olive Leaf Extract Nature’s<br />

Extraordinary Immune Support<br />

As far ago as 1927 Doctors used<br />

olive leaf to reduce fevers and<br />

knock out malaria. Scientists have<br />

discovered olive leaf contains<br />

powerful nutrients that directly interfere<br />

and even destroy nearly every type of disease<br />

causing micro-organisms including bacteria,<br />

fungi, mould, parasites, viruses and even<br />

yeast infections. As well as this olive leaf has<br />

immune enhancing benefits by activating<br />

immune cells that fight infection. For these<br />

reasons it has become a popular tonic herb<br />

that can be used to keep the immune system<br />

strong as well as when need to dramatically<br />

speed up recovery of conditions like colds<br />

and flus, pneumonia, tuberculosis, herpes,<br />

shingles, urinary infections, yeast infections,<br />

and much more. It has also been found<br />

beneficial for chronic fatigue syndrome,<br />

low energy levels, exotic and deadly tropical<br />

diseases, two types<br />

of leukaemia and<br />

even some cancers.<br />

In many chronic<br />

health conditions the<br />

immune system is run<br />

down and it is easy to<br />

have complications<br />

that are often life<br />

threatening. Olive<br />

leaf may be a safe and<br />

very effective option to<br />

boost the immune system and allow the body<br />

to have more energy to help heal itself.<br />

Olive leaf has also been found to be<br />

an effective cardiovascular tonic helping<br />

normalise high blood pressure, improve<br />

cholesterol quality, improve heartbeat<br />

irregularities, and improve blood flow and<br />

vascular disorders.<br />

Olive leaf extract is so effective that too<br />

high a dose initially may make you feel worse.<br />

This is due to too many micro-organisms<br />

dying quicker than the body can process<br />

these dead organisms. This side effect can<br />

be minimized if you follow our protocol on<br />

dosage. Also drinking water and herbal teas<br />

especially raspberry leaf can be quite effective.<br />

Further information on the amazing benefits<br />

of olive leaf and how it can be effectively<br />

used is available from our Medical Herbalist<br />

or our Natural Health Advisers at Marshall’s<br />

Health & Natural Therapy, 110 Seaview<br />

Keep comfortable with<br />

EnviroMaster<br />

Are you struggling with the heat<br />

of Summer or wanting to get<br />

organised for Winter? With the<br />

ever changing weather patterns,<br />

heat pumps have the flexibility of being able<br />

to heat and cool which is an advantage no<br />

other appliance can offer. This represents<br />

great value for your investment as you can<br />

use it all year round. The team at Enviro<br />

Master Ltd can help keep you cool this<br />

Summer either at home or work. Enviro<br />

Master supplies, installs and services all<br />

the leading brands including Panasonic,<br />

Fujitsu, Mitsubishi and Daikin. This means<br />

our team can show you which system and<br />

brand will best suit your needs.<br />

We currently have savings up to $600<br />

off the recommended retail price on<br />

selected models.<br />

Would you like to maximise the number<br />

of days you can use your swimming pool?<br />

Heating your pool can do this and one of<br />

the most cost effective ways is with a water<br />

heat pump. Enviro Master Ltd can supply,<br />

install and service you swimming pool heat<br />

pump providing you with a comfortable,<br />

extended swimming season.<br />

Servicing your heat pump is extremely<br />

important to ensure that it is working<br />

as effectively and efficiently as possible<br />

resulting in a healthy, hygienic heat pump,<br />

lower power bills and greater comfort. But<br />

beware, not all cleaning companies are<br />

equal. We are constantly hearing of people<br />

being charged huge amounts for servicing<br />

and all they are getting is a heat pump<br />

clean. We at Enviro Master, are qualified<br />

engineers and therefore are able to fully<br />

test and diagnose any problems you may<br />

or may not be aware of with your heat<br />

pump. Also, as we are associated with all<br />

major brands, we are able to repair these<br />

under warranty if they are still within the<br />

warranty period.<br />

It is important to remember, when<br />

selecting an installer, the manufacturer’s<br />

warranty does not cover the installation<br />

and consumers could be responsible for<br />

any repair or damage caused to the system<br />

due to poor installation. Enviro Master’s<br />

five-star installation guarantee ensures<br />

correct installation, and a demonstration<br />

so customers have an understanding on<br />

how it will best meet their needs.<br />

An extensive range<br />

To ensure the quality of your air, contact<br />

the experts. Smooth-Air Products can<br />

calculate the required air exchange for<br />

your building requirement. Smooth-<br />

Air offers a wide range of ventilation equipment,<br />

from air vents to ducting for fans, for both<br />

the commercial and domestic markets. They<br />

have an extensive range of fans and ventilation<br />

components in-store but they can also provide<br />

innovative solutions tailored to differing<br />

requirements.<br />

VENTILATIoN<br />

This includes both the exchange of air to the<br />

outside as well as circulation of air within the<br />

building. It is one of the most important factors<br />

for maintaining acceptable indoor air quality<br />

in buildings.<br />

Filtered air supply for summer and filtered<br />

- warmed air in winter creates a healthy<br />

environment in which to live and work. In case<br />

of poor or insufficient air intake from outside,<br />

the oxygen content decreases, humidity and<br />

dustiness levels increase. If exhaust ventilation<br />

is not provided or it is not effective, polluted air,<br />

smells, humidity and harmful substances are<br />

not removed.<br />

Low oxygen with high carbon dioxide causes<br />

stuffiness in the room and occupants can feel<br />

drowsy. Invisible harmful substances like a high<br />

content of dust and tobacco smoke are harmful<br />

and can cause various diseases. Even bad smells<br />

can cause discomfort or irritate the nervous<br />

system. In summer, it’s easy to open windows for<br />

cross ventilation, however as winter approaches,<br />

we start to shut up out houses to trap in the heat<br />

and as a result, air quality can decline.<br />

It is therefore very important to ensure good<br />

air quality indoors through adequate ventilation.<br />

HOME OR OFFICE<br />

What a view to wake up to<br />

18 Glendevere Terrace, Redcliffs<br />

Auction: <strong>May</strong> 12, <strong>2016</strong><br />

4 bedrooms | 3 bathrooms | 3 toilets | 2 living rooms | 1 dining room | 3-car garage | 2 off-street parks | Listing #: FM4869<br />

Designed to maximise the glorious<br />

views, you will be captivated as<br />

you gaze over the estuary and<br />

Southshore to take in the sweep<br />

of Pegasus Bay to the Kaikouras beyond.<br />

This is not for the casual observer as the<br />

home conceals its appealing and spacious<br />

interior from the street, and it’s only once<br />

you have soaked up the stunning views will<br />

you be able to enjoy the expansive family<br />

living, including a bright, modern kitchen<br />

and defined dining area, then explore further<br />

into the home.<br />

To suit families who want extra space,<br />

there is a large formal lounge/media room<br />

on the first floor, which would also suit those<br />

who wished to have an office to work from<br />

home as it features easy separate access from<br />

the street while on the lower level the home<br />

offers a master bedroom complete with en<br />

suite, three further good-sized bedrooms<br />

and main bathroom. There is also the benefit<br />

of a shower room on the ground floor, which<br />

is ideal when you get back from a quick surf<br />

or trip to Sumner beach that is just a short<br />

drive away.<br />

For your outdoor entertaining, the west<br />

-facing timber deck is perfect for summer<br />

BBQs, or relaxing with a glass of wine at<br />

the end of the day. The internal access,<br />

triple garage for all the boy’s toys completes<br />

the package.<br />

Having just completed a major renovation<br />

to a very high standard, the home will meet<br />

the demands of the most discerning buyers<br />

and, while I am surprised the decision has<br />

been made to sell such a wonderful home, I<br />

have been given clear instructions to sell the<br />

property on auction day, unless sold prior.<br />

Open Home dates: Wednesdays and<br />

Sundays, 2pm to 2.40pm. See you at<br />

the Open Days. For more information<br />
