Overwhelming opposition 

to removal of car parks 

• By Tom Doudney 

OPPOSITION TO the planned 

removal of car parks in Woolston 

is gathering momentum with a 

petition against the move being 

signed by 771 people. 

The city council’s proposed 

Woolston Village Upgrade Plan 

would see the number of car parks 

on Ferry Rd reduced from 77 to 21, 

with motorists encouraged to park 

on side streets instead. 

The $1.6 million plan is intended 

to revitalise the area, with other 

components including a 30km/h 

speed limit, new tree plantings and 

raised median strips. 

The city council has received 165 

submissions on the plan. 

Woolston Main Street Business 

Association acting chairman 

Stephen Hardman said businesses 

were overwhelmingly against 

removing the car parks. 

“Many of the businesses in the 

street rely upon their customers 

being able to park at the roadside, 

nip in and get back in their car and 

leave,” he said. 

“If they were to reduce 

according to the numbers they are 

proposing it will mean that several 

businesses will close, no doubt 

about it.” 

He said a city council survey 

showing that there was not great 

demand for parking was skewed 

because it was not conducted during 

the busiest times of the day. 

Signatures on the petition were 

collected from shoppers in the area 

over a two-week period. 

In her submission 

on the plan, Port 

Hills MP Ruth Dyson 

(left) said it would 

not deliver on its aim 

of encouraging and 

retaining businesses 

in the area. 

“In my view, taking 

a significant number of car parks 

out of the area will simply mean 

that people will shop somewhere 

else,” she said. 

“They will just drive 

further down the road 

where they can stop 

outside the shop of 

their choice.” 

National MP Nuk 

Korako (left) said that 

he thought the plan, 

including car park changes, was 

a positive move to make the area 

more attractive for shoppers and the 

criticism was shortsighted. 

“The way it is planned at the 

moment, motorists just pass 

through it,” Mr Korako said.

IT IS a sad fact that bullying is 

not only prevalent in schools, but 

in many other facets of life. Vicki 

Edwards-Brown is the driving 

force behind Be The Change, 

an anti-bullying programme 

that started after she saw a lack 

of empathy for those subjected 

to schoolyard harassment. The 

actress and singer talks about not 

only the programme but her stint 

on Shortland Street on page 8. 

On page 6, reporter Donna 

Miles talks to the Canterbury 

Muslim Community Trust. 

Though they do not suffer the 

same levels of “islamophobia” 

compared to the rest of the world, 

there is still a way to go in understanding 

the different cultures 

of the 40 ethnic groups that 

represent the Muslim community 

in the city.

Move forces resignation 


HAGLEY-Ferrymead 

Community Board deputy 

chairwoman Islay McLeod has 

resigned because she is moving 

back to Dunedin. 

Ms McLeod was critical of 

the performance of her board 

which she said suffered from 

a lack of local government 

experience. 

Her departure will not trigger a 

by-election this close to elections 

in October and Ms McLeod said 

she had checked to make sure 

this was the case before resigning. 

“A lot of people in good faith 

voted for me and I would be 

letting them down if I cost the 

ratepayers anything or if there 

was anything significant coming 

up,” she said. 

“There are not a lot of major 

issues coming up. The Annual 

Plan is all sorted, the Replacement 

District Plan is pretty well 

sorted.” 

Asked if her second term 

on the board had been a good 

experience, Ms McLeod said “not 

particularly.” 

“My first term was good 

because there were good steady 

hands with very experienced and 

practised people like Bob Todd, 

who was the chair, and David 

Cox,” she said. 

“In this latest term, out of the 

seven of us, four had no local 

government experience at all.” 

She said at times the board had 

not been proactive enough when 

it came to taking a stand on local 

issues, such as the date for building 

a Linwood-Woolston pool 

continually being delayed. 

“Just putting in a submission 

like everybody else isn’t the way,” 

she said. 

“I think the board could have 

and should have had a more 

powerful and vocal say on what is 

happening in our ward.” 

Board chairwoman Sara Templeton 

said she didn’t think that a 

lack of experience was evident on 

the board. 

“I think this board has actually 

been incredibly passionate and 

vocal about a range of different 

issues and has taken it to council 

on many occasions and pushed 

for things.” 

Ms McLeod will also step 

down from the Christchurch 

West Melton Zone Committee. 

She moved to Christchurch 12 

years ago to be close to her mother 

who had health problems. Her 

mother passed away at the end of 

last year.

Traffic and parking problems in Addington 

The Spreydon-Heathcote 

Community Board recently 

called for speed limits 

in streets in the area 

between Lincoln Rd, 

Brougham St, Selwyn St 

and Moorhouse Ave to 

be reduced to 30km/h. 

Addington Neighbourhood 

Association chairwoman 

Sarah McKenzie writes 

on the traffic and parking 

problems the area is 

experiencing. 

SINCE THE earthquakes, 

Addington has become the place 

to be, from cafes and shops 

to office blocks and car yards, 

setting up a business and still 

being close to the CBD. 

However, with more businesses 

moving in came the traffic issues. 

Addington streets have had 

roads narrowed before the earthquakes 

and now the streets can’t 

handle the amount of traffic that 

passes through daily. 

The lack of parking for the 

business’ staff and customers has 

caused cars to spill out on to the 

narrow residential streets leaving 

no parking for locals or their 

visitors, particularly between 

business hours. 

The street parking causes 

issues for the residents as well 

as the businesses, from poor 

visibility due to dense parking 

to residents driveways being 

partially blocked by desperate 

drivers needing a space to park. 

Church Square has become 

a bit of a thoroughfare from 

Brougham St to Selwyn St. 

Residents have voiced concerns 

in the past about this, particularly 

around Church Square and 

changing the speed limit. 

Ward St has become an issue 

for residents due to speed and a 

higher traffic volume. 

Selwyn St between Moorhouse 

Ave and Brougham St is a big 

concern. The traffic has increased 

by a huge amount and it seems to 

be a main route for heavy vehicles. 

At peak times Selwyn St can 

be backed up from Moorhouse 

Ave to Ward St. 

Selwyn St concerns me due to 

the young children walking to 

Addington School, Christchurch 

South Intermediate, Cashmere 

High School and Hagley Community 

College. The Kidsfirst 

Kindergarten and Bishop Selwyn 

FAST AND FURIOUS: 

Damage to bollards by 

Church Square is said 

to have been caused by 

speeding drivers. 

PHOTO: GEOFF SLOAN 

Lifecare are also on Selwyn St 

and affected by the traffic. 

There is no safe ambulance access 

into Bishop Selwyn Lifecare, 

especially in peak traffic in spite 

of efforts to have yellow ‘no stopping’ 

zone painted on Selwyn St 

by the facility’s entrance. 

Selwyn St needs a 40km/h 

speed limit past Bishop Selwyn 

Lifecare and Kidsfirst Kindergarten. 

We also need speed restrictions 

around Church Square and the 

narrow streets of Addington. 

Readers respond to a 

call from the Spreydon- 

Heathcote Community 

Board that speed limits in 

some Addington streets 

should be dropped to 

30km/h. 

Richard Townshend, Spreydon 

– In our street, Blakehall 

Place, people often drive over 

70km/h. It’s too dangerous for 

small children, elders and cats. 

It’s also a narrow street and the 

limit should be 30km/h. 

E. Scott, of Fendalton – 

I definitely do not want a 

30km/h speed limit on some 

streets. 

I can’t believe this is even being 

considered as the speed in most 

areas is governed by road works 

right now. 

It is more dangerous trying to 

watch my speedometer, taking 

my eye off the road, than doing 

the 50km/h limit – 30km/h is 

almost walking speed. 

It angers me to think this is all 

for the pedestrians and cyclists. 

Why can they not take responsibility 

for their own actions? 

I have just been on a 21-day 

cruise in Europe and everyone 

always wanted to know where 

we came from. My stock answer 

was “the city from hell, called 

Christchurch”. This absolutely 

endorses this. 

J. Mortimer, Halswell – 

I would hate to see traffic dribbling 

along at 30km/h. 

The city council has already 

solved the problem for cyclists in 

Tennyson St in Beckenham by 

putting the cycleways up off the 

road. 

With all the massive roadworks 

that have taken place over 

the last five years why weren’t 

the cycle lanes done at the same 

time? Another problem solved. 

I thought when they dug up 

Halswell Junction Rd they would 

of done the same as on Tennyson 

St as it’s a very busy main road. 

For every dumb idea the city 

council comes up with, ratepayers 

shouldn’t have to pay their 

rates.

River work under way 


PARTS OF the Heathcote River 

channel are being blocked off and 

pumped dry so a wastewater pipe 

can be installed underneath the 

riverbed. 

On Wednesday, the Stronger 

Christchurch Infrastructure Team 

started work on installing the pipe, 

which will run from the intersection 

of Fairview St and Ashgrove Tce under 

the river to Cashmere Rd near 

the intersection with Valley Rd. 

Workers are using a technique 

called sheet piling which involves 

creating a metal wall to block 

off half of the river channel at a 

time. The blocked off area is then 

pumped dry and the river is able 

to flow down the other half of the 

channel. 

The work, which is taking place 

in a 100m stretch of riverbed either 

side of the Fairview St bridge, is 

expected to take 10 weeks to complete. 

Starting in about three weeks, the 

Fairview St Bridge will be closed to 

vehicles for four weeks. Pedestrians 

and cyclists will still be able to use it. 

SCIRT is expecting to undertake 

the same sort of work in the Avon 

River, between River Rd and Avonside 

Drive, next month so that two 

large wastewater pipes can be laid 

in the riverbed. 

IN THE CHANNEL: Sheet piling work to partially block the 

flow of the Heathcote River begins 

In Brief 

BIN STOCKTAKE 

Kerbside wheelie bins throughout 

the city will be fitted with radio 

frequency tags as part of a 

stocktake starting next month. 

The stocktake is designed to save 

$9.3 million on the cost of the bin 

collection service over the next 13 

years by removing lost, damaged 

and stolen bins from circulation. 

Radio frequency tags to ensure 

bins that are damaged, stolen or 

found on other properties can 

be easily identified. They can 

then be checked and matched to 

the database, returned to their 

original property or reallocated 

for future distribution. Waste 

Management will carry out 

the stocktake. The short range 

radio frequency chips will 

communicate with the collection 

truck as it goes past to ensure that 

the bin is located near the correct 

property. The stocktake will take 

approximately three years to 

complete. 

DYERS RD DELAYS 

Wastewater repairs in Dyers 

Rd, Bromley, starting this week 

are expected to take about 14 

weeks. Two-way traffic will be 

maintained but there may be 

delays. The work is between Ruru 

Rd and Linwood Ave.

BREAKING PREJUDICES: Nada Tawfeek and her mother 

Dalia Mohamed are volunteers at the Islamic Women’s 

Council New Zealand. 

Magazine & TV | sTyle.kiwi 

CLOSE TO 40 different ethnic 

groups represent the Muslim 

community in the city. 

Community worker Dr 

Husaini Hafiz said that the 

city’s 3250 Muslims did not 

suffer from the same levels of 

Islamophobia experienced by 

Muslims in Europe and the 

United States, but racial and 

religious prejudices can exist 

everywhere. 

Dr Hafiz said the Canterbury 

Muslim Community 

Trust is building cultural and 

religious bridges by reaching 

out to the city’s Muslims and 

the wider non-Muslim community. 

“We would like to ensure 

that Christchurch remains a 

good place to live for all, which 

means taking steps to foster 

better understanding between 

different groups,” he said. 

Dr Hafiz said many people 

assumed that the Muslim community 

in Christchurch was 

homogenous with the same 

cultural practices and religious 

beliefs. 

He said, in reality, the Muslim 

community in Christchurch 

was very diverse. 

The trust’s outreach programmes 

are run jointly with 

the Islamic Women’s Council 

New Zealand. 

ICWNZ member Denise 

Jeager said the inclusion 

of Muslim women in the 

outreach programme was essential 

to show Muslim women 

had a voice and they were willing 

to exercise it. 

ICWNZ volunteer Nada 

Tawfeek said the outreach programme 

was useful to bring 

about more open-minded 

views of Muslim women. 

“Some people were surprised 

to hear a girl in hijab speak 

with a British accent,” she said. 

Dr Hafiz said focus groups 

run in Canterbury had 

style 

noun 

elegance and sophistication. 

synonyms: flair, grace, poise, 

polish, suaveness, urbanity, 

chic, finesse, taste, class, 

comfort, luxury, affluence, 

wealth, opulence, lavishness. 

identified three common 

concerns amongst Muslims in 

Christchurch: leadership, communication 

and lack of Islamic 

knowledge. 

One of the trust’s goals 

was to address the need for 

stronger communication channels 

between Muslims and 

non-Muslim communities. 

Last July, the trust invited 

students from New Zealand 

Broadcasting School to join in 

the breaking of fast at the Al- 

Noor mosque in Christchurch. 

The invitation was a followup 

to an earlier educational 

session where the students 

were introduced to basic concepts 

of Islam and the impact 

of the media on Muslims. 

This year a similar educational 

session was offered to 

student journalists at the University 

of Canterbury and Ara 

Institute of Canterbury. 

Office of Ethnic Communities’ 

general manager, Maarten 

Quivooy, said organisations 

such as the Canterbury Muslim 

Trust play a “vital role” 

in educating and supporting 

New Zealanders to embrace 

and celebrate the benefits that 

diversity brings to us all.”

Our People 

SOUTHERN VIEW 

Taking a stand against bullying 

Vicki Edwards-Brown started the charity Be The 

Change in 2011 to tackle the problem of bullying and 

help support victims. She spoke to reporter Tom 

Doudney about what inspired her to set the charity 

up, her role on Shortland Street and the freak spinal 

injury she suffered. 

I heard that you were actually 

bullied as an adult, is that 

right? What role did that play 

in starting Be The Change? 

Yes, I was but it’s not the driving 

force behind why I started 

Be The Change. That driving 

force was to do with my husband 

working in a high school, seeing 

the effect that bullying was 

having on young people around 

me, and just really having a 

desperate need to help them and 

massive empathy for them. I was 

thinking that’s hard enough, and 

then you have the earthquakes 

to deal with as well, and we need 

something in New Zealand to 

empower young people to stand 

up to bullying. 

Yeah, I was bullied in the 

workplace but I didn’t know it at 

the time, so I guess it would have 

been good to have tools and tips 

to know that, actually, that’s not 

okay. 

Can you tell me more about 

your background before 

starting Be The Change? 

My background is really in 

the speaking side of it. When I 

do the workshops and presentations, 

that comes from an acting 

background that I have. I have 

been on Shortland Street and 

other things when I was younger, 

so that has drawn me to being 

able to present to young people 

and fit in. 

When were you on Shortland 

Street? 

I was on in 2010. My husband 

[Shaun Edwards-Brown] was actually 

on for a whole year during 

2009 and 2010 as well. He was a 

pivotal character and I got a twomonth 

contract as well, which 

was really awesome. 

What character did you play? 

Her name was Jewel Fitzpatrick. 

What was Jewel like? 

She was actually an actress. I 

was acting, playing an actress. 

Who did your husband play 

on Shortland Street? 

He was Ben Goodall – a paramedic. 

How did your tenure end 

at Shortland Street? Did your 

character get killed off or anything 

like that? 

No, some main characters did 

a play and I was in that play, so 

the play just ran its course and 

that was it. 

Did being on Shortland Street 

open up any more doors for you 

in terms of acting? 

Yeah, we lived in Auckland 

for six months and did some 

ads and things like that. Then 

ON SCREEN: 

Vicki Edwards- 

Brown played 

the role of 

actor Jewel 

Fitzpatrick 

on the long 

running 

soap opera, 

Shortland 

Street. 

TAKING A STAND: Vicki Edwards-Brown started Be The 

Change, a charity that aims to tackle bullying. 

we came back to Christchurch, 

I had major back surgery and 

then, being stuck in bed for six 

weeks while watching TV, I saw 

something which inspired me to 

create Be The Change. 

What was it you saw on TV? 

It was a programme about 

a bully prevention charity in 

America called Challenge Day 

and I saw that and just thought 

‘wow, that is really awesome’ 

and it just inspired me to do 

something because we needed 

something like that in New 

Zealand. 

You mentioned being in some 

ads, what might we recognise 

you from? 

They’re pretty old now – 

Vector’s fibre to the door was 

one. I was just like standing at 

a sink turning the tap on and 

trying to get water through a 

straw. 

But predominately I used to 

sing – I’d sing at Twiggers, at 

Addington Raceway. We used to 

sing every Friday and Saturday 

with the band. So a lot of my 

performing was theatrical with 

singing in a band and stuff like 

that. I had my own band called 

V.I.P. I have also done about 20 

shows through Showbiz over the 

years. 

What sort of music did you 

sing with your band? 

I love 80s. Anything from the 

60s right through. It was all Top 

of the Pops stuff that people like 

to hear. 

So, have you stopped playing 

with bands now? 

I do stuff with a group called 

Chant et Danse, a Christchurch 

entertainment group. 

You also mentioned that you 

had major back surgery, what 

happened there? 

It was a really freak accident. 

Eleven years ago we were driving 

along Moorhouse Ave and there 

were high winds and a threestorey-high 

tree broke off in the 

wind just as we drove past and 

the tree came through the roof 

on to my head. 

Oh my gosh! 

I’m laughing now but it wasn’t 

good at the time, and it literally 

broke my back. I had two spinal 

surgeries so I have got a titanium 

back. 

Do you feel good as new now? 

No, I have chronic back pain 

but I have just learned to live 

with it and do the best I can 

through exercise and being 

healthy and that sort of thing, 

and having a positive attitude 

about everything – everything. If 

you can think of something to be 

grateful for in life, and literally I 

think helping other people helps 

me. If I can lie in bed at night 

saying I have helped one person, 

that makes me happy. 

What sort of support do victims 

of bullying need most? Is 

it really just people being kind 

to them? 

That really is a huge part of 

it, yes. It takes a community 

to prevent bullying – not just 

a school, or the person, or the 

family. Schools are the ones that 

are often blamed but they really 

struggle with the resources and 

it’s people like me who can help 

them create positive cultures – 

and I need funding! Funding 

would enable me to give more resources 

and help to more schools 

in Christchurch. 

But yeah, just being kind and 

doing things like, for example, 

setting up lunchtime events at 

schools. We held an anonymous 

appreciation day at Cashmere 

High School, where we provided 

kids with cards and they write 

anonymously nice notes to other 

people. We delivered 1200 notes 

to teachers and students that day. 

It was such a wonderful experience 

and just set a positive buzz 

around the school. 

How do you think we should 

view people who bully? Are 

these bad people or should we 

pity them, too? 

I do believe that a bully generally 

is someone who is doing that 

because they are being bullied 

themselves, so I do go the way 

of feeling sorry for them and 

empathising with their situation, 

rather than telling them they’re 

bad.

EQC UPDATE KEEPING YOU INFORMED | JUNE 2016 

EQC begins settling ILV land damage claims 

Head of Canterbury Land Settlement for EQC, 

Keith Land 

The Earthquake Commission has begun 

settling claims for Increased Liquefaction 

Vulnerability (ILV) land damage. 

Keith Land, Head of Canterbury Land 

Settlement, says that the settlements will go to 

4,400 customers whose properties have 

qualified as having an increased vulnerability to 

liquefaction following the 2010-2011 

Canterbury earthquakes. 

“Each qualified property is being assessed and 

will be cash settled on a case-by-case basis as 

we have done to date with other forms of land 

damage resulting from these earthquakes. 

Similar to Increased Flooding Vulnerability (IFV) 

land damage, settlement of ILV land damage is 

a world-first. This type of land damage has not 

been covered by insurance anywhere else, so 

Fulbright-EQC Award recipient to study 

seismic performance of high-rise walls 

The Fulbright-EQC Graduate Award’s newest recipient, Alex Shegay, 

is looking into the reasons behind unexpected failures of reinforced 

concrete walls and ways in which performance can be improved. 

Mr Shegay, 24, has been granted the 2016 Fulbright-EQC Graduate 

Award in Natural Disaster Research and soon will be heading to the 

University of Washington on his exchange. 

In the US, he will research the seismic performance of high-rise structural 

walls and use experimental data to create validated computer models. 

The research will go towards his PhD in Structural/Earthquake 

Engineering at the University of Auckland. 

“Structural engineers have significant social responsibility to protect 

civilians even in the most devastating circumstances. The 2010/2011 

Canterbury Earthquakes were an example of one such catastrophic event, 

producing ground accelerations never before recorded in an urban 

environment. 

“Many concrete buildings in Christchurch that relied on reinforced 

concrete walls for seismic resistance were severely damaged to the 

point that it was fortunate to find them still standing. It’s crucial to learn 

from the Canterbury earthquakes and improve building design and 

construction practice.” 

considerable work was required to get the 

engineering and valuation methodologies 

right,” said Mr Land. 

“We want to make sure that the final settlements 

are based on a robust and appropriate 

settlement process so that customers can have 

confidence their claims for ILV land damage 

have been paid consistently and fairly.” 

EQC expects at least two thirds of ILV 

customers will receive settlements based on 

the reduction in their property’s market value 

caused by ILV, also known as Diminution of 

Value (DOV). 

“This is because generally, there are no 

available ground improvement methods to 

address ILV damage on a property where 

a house has remained in place since the 

earthquakes,” says Mr Land. 

The remaining third of ILV customers are being 

assessed for a settlement based on the cost to 

repair the ILV land damage. This will generally 

be in situations where the house has already 

been, or will be, rebuilt or removed due to the 

earthquake damage.” 

Customers receiving a ‘cost to repair’ 

settlement will be individually case-managed, 

as the situation for each of them varies. Before 

it can be confirmed that these customers will 

receive a repair cost settlement, more 

information is needed to understand their 

property’s current situation. 

Mr Land says that settlements for DOV 

customers began this month and EQC also 

started contacting repair cost customers. 

EQC has resolved nearly 90% of properties 

with land claims resulting from 2010-2011 

Canterbury earthquakes, and expects to 

resolve the remainder of the land programme 

by the end of 2016. 

EQC will also hold six ILV meetings from July to 

November for customers whose settlements are 

based on DOV. The purpose of the meetings is 

for customers to ask questions and hear from 

EQC and its valuers about what’s been involved 

in ILV settlement decisions.

The Fulbright-EQC Graduate Award in Natural Disaster Research 

facilitates research that reduces and prevents natural disaster damage. 

It is part of $16 million granted by EQC each year to high quality research 

that builds knowledge about New Zealand’s natural disasters. 

Progress report 

on EQC remedial 

programme 

The Earthquake Commission has received 8,337 

remedial enquiries of which 2,211 have been resolved 

as of 27 May 2016. This leaves 6,126 enquiries 

remaining. 

The amount recorded as being spent on remedial work to 

May 2016 was $7,068,833. However it has not been possible 

to separate out all remedial costs from other work streams. 

The total cost of the remedial repairs will never be finally 

known until we have resolved all the outstanding claims. 

There are still a number of unknowns and it’s also too early 

to say exactly what the final figure will be for the remedial 

programme. However, EQC expects the final cost could be 

in the region of $60 million to $70 million, which is covered 

by our existing liability estimates. To put this estimate in 

context it would account for less than 3% of the approximate 

$2.5 billion cost of the Canterbury Home Repair Programme 

to date. 

The level of remedial work for the Canterbury Home 

Repair Programme is well within industry norms for the 

national construction sector. 

EQC has prioritised first time repairs, although it has carried 

out urgent remedial work for vulnerable customers or where 

the work is needed to make a house safe, secure and/or 

sanitary. 

Now that EQC is down to the last of the first time repairs, 

focus has increased on resolving remedials. 

EQC is confident it has the processes and teams in place to 

address the issues. EQC has been expanding the remedial 

team since September 2015 and more staff are being added 

as first time repairs near completion. 

EQC does not have a projected date to stop receiving 

remedial requests but will continue working with customers 

until their claims are resolved. 

One of the reasons for starting the Canterbury Home Repair 

Programme was to ensure customers would have the 

assurance that any issues with their earthquake repairs 

would be addressed. 

Currently around 100 remedial requests are being received 

a week. 

Customers can follow the progress of their 

claim through a series of EQC letters with a tick 

diagram. Each new tick means the customer 

is closer to receiving their settlement. 

Processing 

starts for 

Feb 2016 

quakes 

EQC aims to complete assessments 

more quickly for the February 2016 

Canterbury earthquake claims using 

customer-provided information for 

desk-based assessments. 

Onsite assessment visits to customers’ 

properties will be the exception for cases 

where there is extensive damage, claims 

are complex or individual circumstances 

require it. EQC claim managers have 

been calling customers to get 

information and documents – such as 

specific damage measurements and 

photos – before deciding whether a 

phone or on-site assessment works best. 

Claims processing is well underway 

with over 685 claims paid so far out of 

the total 13,134 received. Priority is 

given to vulnerable customers, followed 

by claims in the order in which they 

were lodged. 

“Customers who have had their claims 

settled so far have told us that the new 

approach is working better for them. 

Before starting to settle claims, EQC 

proactively talked with customers about 

different ways of doing things, using 

their feedback to design our approach 

for this event,” says EQC Manager of 

the February 2016 Event, Jayne Lapin. 

“Most of the damage suffered is 

cosmetic, so EQC won’t manage a repair 

programme this time but, customers 

who need assistance to organise repairs, 

can contact our Community Contact 

Team in Christchurch. The team has 

strong links with support agencies who 

can help. Call EQC on 0800 DAMAGE 

(0800 326 243) to book an appointment 

with the Community Contact Team, if 

support is needed. 

“For customers whose 2010/2011 

Canterbury earthquake claims are still 

open, EQC aims to resolve their February 

2016 claim together with their 

2010/2011 claims. We want to make 

sure all outstanding issues for their 

properties are on track for resolution by 

the end of 2016,” Ms Lapin says. 

At this stage, EQC expects to resolve 

the majority of February 2016 

earthquake claims by the end of 

December 2016.

Quarry courses for orienteers 

OUTDOOR adventurers 

united last week at the opening 

of three orienteering courses at 

Halswell Quarry with Deputy 

Mayor Vicki Buck on standby 

to give the countdown to the 

opening. 

Along with Ms Buck, the 

junior world orienteering team 

produced a one-hour course and 

a novel orienteering maze. 

Halswell Scouts also fundraised 

with sausage sales and 

displayed their skills at building 

a bridge. 

The fun permanent orienteering 

courses were developed by 

the Peninsula and Plains Orienteering 

club supported by the 

city council with funding from 

the Rata Foundation. 

Project co-ordinator Mike 

Marra said the courses range 

from levels of beginners through 

to advanced for more experienced 

map readers. 

A large contribution was made 

from the community with mapping 

of Halswell Quarry Park 

from the expertise of PAPO 

members. 

The installation of the 

control posts also involved an 

enthusiastic volunteer working 

bee from the Halswell Scouts, 

PAPO members and community 

help.

School have been learning about the weather. Making their own 

weather vanes was one of several experiments they conducted 

to help them make predictions. The pupils have been looking 

into why the seasons change and the impact of weather on 

people, animals and the environment with a particular focus 

on the water cycle. They will share their findings at the school’s 

end-of-term science and technology show. 

CULTURE AND RHYTHM: Cashmere High School Japanese language students performed a 

dance known as Odoru Ponpokorin Taisoo at a day of workshops and activities held recently 

at Canterbury University. About 300 high school students from around Canterbury took part 

in the day which was arranged by university lecturers and the Canterbury Network of Teachers 

to prepare them for their NCEA assessments. All schools performed the dance and their 

performances were filmed for a combined video. There was also a Japanese drumming 

performance by the group Takumi, feedback by the national Japanese language adviser and 

prize draws.

HEATING UP: 

Connor McLaughlin 

has been a standout 

performer for 

Cashmere this 

season. 

• By Gordon Findlater 

CASHMERE HIGH School face 

their toughest task of the season to 

date when they play Christchurch 

Boys’ High School tonight. 

It’s been the perfect start for last 

year’s beaten finalists in the Thompson 

Trophy. 

They are currently undefeated 

through seven games and find 

themselves at the top of the competition. 

Year 12 point guard Connor 

McLaughlin has been the stand-out 

performer for Cashmere this year. 

He has 37 assists, second in the 

league. The point guard is also not 

afraid to score, he had a game-high 

32 points in his teams win over 

Christ’s College last week. 

Sharp-shooter Ruben Stanley has 

also been instrumental in the team’s 

success. 

The senior is among the competition’s 

top three-point shooters with 

15 to date. 

Cashmere lost a number of players 

following last year’s grand-final 

campaign. 

They now have one of the youngest 

line-ups in the league, with the 

majority of their team all year 12 

boys and younger. 

“We have quite a lot of young guys 

in the team this year, we even have 

a couple of year 10 players getting 

some good game time,” Cashmere 

coach Ben Sheat said. 

It gets tough for Cashmere now, 

though, with a visit to third placed 

Boys’ High tonight. 

They then play second placed 

Burnside in seven days time. 

“They’re two massive games, the 

next two weeks will show us where 

we are at,” Sheat said. 

A good crowd is expected at Boys’ 

High, with 100-200 students usually 

turning out for games. 

It won’t just be the boisterous 

home support Cashmere will have 

to be wary of either. Boys’ High 

boast the likes of Canterbury Rams 

guard Quinn Clinton who has 

recently returned from a trip to 

China. 

Tonight’s game at Boys’ High tips 

off at 6pm.

Ara nurses remain in demand 

ExcEllEnt EmploymEnt prospects 

and a variety of career options continues 

to attract talented students to the world of 

nursing. 

At Ara Institute of canterbury (formerly 

cpIt), the institute’s nursing programme 

is highly-regarded. In fact, 90% of nursing 

graduates find employment after graduation 

– that’s new Zealand’s highest nursing 

graduate employment rate. Ara prides itself 

on consistently reaching the top place. 

So what makes Ara nursing graduates so 

employable? 

years of experience in delivering nursing 

training, along with great facilities and 

expert tutors, is the first key to success. 

Secondly, the institute works closely with 

the health sector to ensure that the training 

aligns with what is needed on the ground 

in the region’s hospital wards, community 

health centres and aged care facilities. Ara 

continues to develop innovative work-based 

training that help prepare graduate nurses 

for the real world of work. 

Executive Director of nursing at 

canterbury District Health Board (cDHB) 

mary Gordon says the sector is closely 

involved with nursing training at Ara 

providing clinical placements for nursing 

students, employing new graduate nurses 

across the canterbury health system, 

supporting nurses to undertake graduate 

and post graduate education. nurses within 

the canterbury health system are very 

committed to supporting the training and 

development of Ara nursing students. “These 

students are our future nursing workforce. 

They will be our future nursing educators 

and leaders who will be shaping the health 

system for the future.” 

Head of nursing at Ara, cathy Andrew, 

says nursing training is aligned to industry 

conditions and the demands of modern 

nursing. “We have excellent relationships 

with clinical agencies and work closely 

together to provide learning experiences 

that are positive for students. We are seen as 

national leaders in innovative clinical models 

of learning and regularly receive feedback 

that our graduates are actively recruited by 

employers throughout new Zealand.” 

march 2016 graduates of the Ara Bachelor 

of nursing programme achieved a 90.3% 

employment rate. They are out there working 

in the sector in a variety of roles across the 

spectrum of nursing including hospital 

wards, mental health, community health, 

aged care and emergency units.

FLAME FILES 

GUTTED: A garage fire on Linwood Ave started when hot ash was put in a bin. 

Clean the lint filter in 

your clothes dryer 

• By Mark Thomas – Fire 

Risk Management Officer 

Tuesday [Edition June datE] 21 2016 

TWO PROPERTY fires, 

with all the drama and 

heartache they entail, 

occurred this week – the 

result of very topical causes 

reflecting the start of 

winter. 

In the early hours of 

last Sunday, a household 

in Parklands was alerted 

by smoke alarms to the 

fact the house was on 

fire. 

That there were operating 

smoke detectors saved 

a possible tragedy, but 

the cause may have been 

avoidable. 

The origin of the fire 

was traced to a clothes 

dryer that had been started 

before the occupants went 

to bed. 

There’s two points here. 

Firstly, it isn’t known 

whether the lint filter had 

been cleared recently. 

If it hadn’t, and this 

should be done every 

time the drier is used, it is 

possible the contents just 

got hotter and hotter to 

ignition temperature. 

Secondly, the use of 

these things should probably 

be restricted to when 

you’re at home, up and 

alert. Then you can deal 

with problems immediately 

as they occur. 

The other fire was a classic 

winter event, where fire 

ash was left against the side 

of a garage in Linwood on 

Tuesday. Ash is an excellent 

insulator. Hot embers 

encased in the ash, inside a 

bucket, will not cool down 

for days. 

In this case, heat transferred 

through the ash, the 

side of the bucket and the 

iron cladding of the garage, 

igniting the wooden 

framing. 

It is recommended that 

five days is the minimum 

time to expect ash to completely 

cool. 

That’s five days you must 

keep the ash and bucket 

outside and well away from 

anything combustible. 

HOME & HEATING 

Stay warm with 

EnviroMaster 

Are you struggling with the heat of 

Summer or wanting to get organised for 

Winter? With the ever changing weather 

patterns, heat pumps have the flexibility 

of being able to heat and cool which is an 

advantage no other appliance can offer. This 

represents great value for your investment 

as you can use it all year round. The team 

at enviro Master Ltd can help keep you cool 

this Summer either at home or work. enviro 

Master supplies, installs and services all the 

leading brands including Panasonic, Fujitsu, 

Mitsubishi and Daikin. This means our team 

can show you which system and brand will 

best suit your needs. 

We currently have savings up to $600 off 

the recommended retail price on 

selected models. 

Would you like to maximise the number 

of days you can use your swimming pool? 

Heating your pool can do this and one of the 

most cost effective ways is with a water heat 

pump. enviro Master Ltd can supply, install 

and service you swimming pool heat pump 

providing you with a comfortable, extended 

swimming season. 

Servicing your heat pump is extremely 

important to ensure that it is working 

as effectively and efficiently as possible 

resulting in a healthy, hygienic heat pump, 

lower power bills and greater comfort. But 

beware, not all cleaning companies are 

equal. We are constantly hearing of people 

being charged huge amounts for servicing 

and all they are getting is a heat pump clean. 

We at enviro Master, are qualified engineers 

SOUTHERN VIEW 

and therefore are able to fully test and 

diagnose any problems you may or may not 

be aware of with your heat pump. Also, as 

we are associated with all major brands, we 

are able to repair these under warranty if 

they are still within the warranty period. 

It is important to remember, when 

selecting an installer, the manufacturer’s 

warranty does not cover the installation 

and consumers could be responsible for 

any repair or damage caused to the system 

due to poor installation. enviro Master’s 

five-star installation guarantee ensures 

correct installation, and a demonstration so 

customers have an understanding on how it 

will best meet their needs.

HOME & HEATING 

Get rid of dampness 

in your house 

noW WITH the colder and wetter weather on its 

way, home owners are focusing on ways to make 

their homes comfortable, warm and healthy for 

their families throughout winter. rISIng DAMP 

is an issue that affects many of our older properties 

which suffer from poor, or no, insulation. In 

Canterbury especially, post-quake, many people 

have relocated to homes that suffer from rising 

damp which can be associated with health 

problems. Independent tests have shown that 

up to 40 litres of water can rise from the ground 

and enter a house every day, leading to mildew, 

mould, condensation and musty smells. Moulds 

can produce various allergic reactions and the frail, 

elderly and very young are especially vulnerable. 

Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd is a locally 

owned and operated firm. The team understands 

the problems caused by rising damp and are there 

to help. They will come to your damp home and 

pump a lightweight, flowable foam concrete under 

your timber floored home. Specially adapted for 

our new Zealand conditions and applications 

it provides a layer of protection against rising 

moisture. An unexpected benefit that the team at 

Canterbury Foam Concrete have noticed recently, 

is that many owners of properties which had 

underfloor foam concrete installed, reported that it 

also provided protection against liquefaction after 

the earthquakes. 

Contact Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd now for 

your free, no obligation quote and complimentary 

appraisal of your underfloor ventilation needs. 

Phone 03 376 4608 or 0508 362626 for more 

information. 

smooth-air products 

To enSure the quality of your air, contact 

the experts. Smooth-Air Products can calculate 

the required air exchange for your building 

requirement. Smooth-Air offers a wide range of 

ventilation equipment, from air vents to ducting 

for fans, for both the commercial and domestic 

markets. They have an extensive range of fans 

and ventilation components in-store but they 

can also provide innovative solutions tailored to 

differing requirements. 

VenTILATIon 

This includes both the exchange of air to the 

outside as well as circulation of air within the 

building. It is one of the most important factors 

for maintaining acceptable indoor air quality in 

buildings. 

Filtered air supply for summer and filtered 

and warmed air in winter creates a healthy 

environment in which to live and work. In case 

of poor or insufficient air intake from outside, 

the oxygen content decreases, humidity and 

dustiness levels increase. If exhaust ventilation 

is not provided or it is not effective, polluted air, 

smells, humidity and harmful substances are not 

removed. 

Low oxygen with high carbon dioxide causes 

stuffiness in the room and occupants can feel 

drowsy. Invisible harmful substances like a 

high content of dust and tobacco smoke are 

harmful and can cause various diseases. even 

bad smells can cause discomfort or irritate the 

nervous system. In summer, it’s easy to open 

windows for cross ventilation, however as winter 

approaches, we start to shut up out houses to 

trap in the heat and as a result, air quality can 

decline. 

It is therefore very important to ensure good 

air quality indoors through adequate ventilation.

5 TIPS 

for optimal NutritioN 

The degree to which your body is 

nourished with optimal nutritional choices 

will have a profound effect on your overall 

health and wellbeing. It will influence your 

energy levels, your mental wellbeing, your 

ability to burn fat, and the strength of your 

immune system, among other things. 

One of the most outstanding figures in the 

history of medicine was the greek physician 

hippocrates. he sums up the importance of 

optimal nutrition choices in one line: “Let 

food be thy medicine and medicine be thy 

food.” 

With winter upon us, now is a great 

time to focus on increasing the number 

of positive choices when it comes to 

nourishing our bodies with great nutrition. 

Base yOur nuTrITIOnaL regIme 

arOund WhOLefOOds 

Think nuts, seeds, grains, fruits, vegetables, 

pulses and meat. make choices in these food 

groups that are as close to the original food 

as possible. This helps ensure the vitamins, 

minerals and other nutrients 

are still intact. for example, raw almonds 

instead of roasted and/or salted ones. 

ChOOse OrganIC 

Organic farming places the utmost 

importance on caring for the soil because it 

forms the basis for health, for all life forms. 

healthy soil encourages disease-resistant 

plants, which then transfers to the animals 

and people who consume those plants. By 

choosing organic, you are opting for food 

that has been grown without the use of 

synthetic pesticides and without the routine 

use of antibiotics. 

drInk WaTer 

your body can survive a surprisingly long 

time without food, but it won’t last more 

than a few days without water. Optimal 

hydration is critical to ensure our muscles 

and nerves function properly, and even mild 

dehydration can lead to feelings of lethargy. 

how much 

to drink? The answer is quite simple – drink 

until your wee is clear or almost clear. That’s 

an easy way to measure whether you’re 

getting enough. 

Take TIme TO pLan and prepare 

fOr eaTIng WeLL 

It takes time and preparation to change your 

habits. schedule out time to write shopping 

lists, shop for food and prepare meals. plan 

to eat before you shop to minimise the 

chance of giving in to temptation foods – 

or shop online to minimise even further. 

make bulk meals to freeze for busy nights 

and set aside time to prepare a packed 

lunch the night before. keep useful kitchen 

items in easy-to-reach places – for example, 

put the blender on the bench rather than 

in the cupboard so that healthy smoothie 

preparation is quick and easy. 

Change OnLy One smaLL ThIng 

aT a TIme 

you may feel overwhelmed by wondering 

where to start improving your nutrition. 

make one small, achievable change and once 

that becomes a habit (something you can 

do without a major effort), then focus on 

something else. small changes are the key to 

success. for example, instead of saying “I’m 

only going to eat wholefoods from now on 

and forever,” instead make your target more 

realistic such as, “I’m going to increase to 

eating at least four different vegetables per 

day, on at least five days every week.” 

Chronic pain in one 

of your joints? 

Even if your joint is not in the best 

shape, a major part of the pain could 

be caused by the muscles surrounding 

the joint. 

At Physical Sense we have good results 

with releasing the muscles (with hands 

on techniques) and increasing your 

strength and flexibility. Within a few 

treatments you will know if this is 

what you need.

FOCUS ON HEALTH 

Olive Leaf Extract 

Nature’s Extraordinary Immune Support 

As fAr ago as 1927 Doctors used olive leaf 

to reduce fevers and knock out malaria. 

scientists have discovered olive leaf contains 

powerful nutrients that directly interfere and 

even destroy nearly every type of disease 

causing micro-organisms including bacteria, 

fungi, mould, parasites, viruses and even 

yeast infections. As well as this olive leaf has 

immune enhancing benefits by activating 

immune cells that fight infection. for these 

reasons it has become a popular tonic herb 

that can be used to keep the immune system 

strong as well as when need to dramatically 

speed up recovery of conditions like colds 

and flu, pneumonia, tuberculosis, herpes, 

shingles, urinary infections, yeast infections, 

and much more. It has also been found 

beneficial for chronic fatigue syndrome, 

low energy levels, exotic and deadly tropical 

diseases, two types of leukaemia and even 

some cancers. In many chronic health 

conditions the immune system is run down 

and it is easy to have complications that are 

often life threatening. Olive leaf may be a 

safe and very effective option to boost the 

immune system and allow the body to have 

more energy to help heal itself. 

Olive leaf has also been found to be 

an effective cardiovascular tonic helping 

normalise high blood pressure, improve 

cholesterol quality, improve heartbeat 

It Is well known how important omega-3 

fatty acids are to good health. It is 

estimated most people don’t even get a 

third of the recommended omega-3 fatty 

acids on a weekly basis. Countries with a 

higher amounts of omega-3 in their diet 

are known to have lower cardiovascular 

disease and, in many cases, better overall 

health. 

recent research has shown inflammation 

to be a big part of disease and the ageing 

process. 

fish oil can help reduce inflammation by 

providing essential fatty acids required 

by the body to heal itself and maintain 

good health. Until now most fish oil 

only contained omega-3 fatty acids in 

triglyceride form. fish, however, naturally 

contain omega-3 in triglyceride and 

phospholipid form but until recently the 

phospholipid form was lost due to the 

manufacturing process. 

GO-Advanced Omega-PC sets new 

irregularities, and improve blood flow and 

vascular disorders. 

Olive leaf extract is so effective that too high 

a dose initially may make you feel worse. This 

is due to too many micro-organisms dying 

quicker than the body can process these dead 

organisms. This side effect can be minimized 

if you follow our protocol on dosage. Also 

drinking water and herbal teas especially 

raspberry leaf can be quite effective. further 

information on the amazing benefits of olive 

leaf and how it can be effectively used is 

available from our Medical Herbalist or our 

Natural Health Advisers at Marshall’s Health 

& Natural Therapy, 110 seaview road, New 

Brighton, Phone: 388-5757. We are Always 

Happy to Help! 

GO-Advanced Omega-PC 

standards in fish oil as it contains 

omega-3 attached to both triglycerides 

and phospholipids. studies have shown 

GO-Advanced Omega-PC to be far better 

absorbed, leading to increased levels of 

vital omega-3 fatty acids in the organs 

through giving the potential for more 

health benefits. 

GO-Advanced Omega-PC is produced 

from fresh wild deep sea cold water fish 

using a new advanced and more natural 

cold extraction process that better 

preserves the natural nutrient profile found 

in fish. It is manufactured to high GMP 

standards and is molecularly distilled to 

remove any containments, toxins and 

heavy metals. 

further info on this revolutionary new 

fish oil and its benefits is available from the 

Natural Health Advisers, Naturopath and 

Medical Herbalist at Marshall’s Health & 

Natural Therapy in New Brighton, phone 

388 5757. We are always happy to help!

NOT all FISH OIl IS CreaTed eQUal! 

ONLY GO OMEGA-PC retains the natural Phospholipids that have been shown to be so beneficial for Good 

Health BUT are lost in other brands of fish oil due to the less natural manufacturing processes used! 

GO-ADVANCED OMEGA-PC SETS NEW STANDARDS IN FISH OIL! 

Omega-3 fish oil normally contains the vital Omega-3 fatty acids in a triglyceride form. Fish however naturally 

contain Omega-3 in a triglyceride & phospholipid form but until recently the phospholipid form was lost due to the 

manufacturing process. GO OMEGA-PC is produced using a new more natural cold extraction process that better 

preserves the natural nutrient profile found in fish. Studies show GO OMEGA-PC offers superior absorption with 

increased omega-3 fatty acids in organs giving the potential for more health benefits. 

GO-ADVANCED OMEGA-PC OFFERS: 

• Superior absorption of vital Omega-3, as 

shown in research 

• Advanced new cold extraction better 

preserves the natural nutrient profile 

found in fish 

• Naturally contains phospholipids to 

support cellular health 

• Contains vitamin D3 to support immune, 

bone & cardiovascular health

deck access and sea views. The two upstairs 

bedrooms enjoy panoramic views and share a 

shower room and bathroom. A smaller fourth
