Great club man rewarded<br />
• By Gordon Findlater<br />
WELL KNOWN rugby league<br />
identity Neil Michel has been<br />
made a life member of the<br />
Linwood club.<br />
Mr Michel’s tireless<br />
contributions at all levels of the<br />
club over many decades were<br />
acknowledged at the club’s<br />
annual meeting last week.<br />
He moved to Christchurch<br />
from Invercargill with his<br />
family when he was 12, and it<br />

didn’t take long for him to take<br />
up the <strong>13</strong>-man code with the<br />
Keas.<br />
“We moved onto Jollie<br />
St and all the kids in my<br />
neighbourhood were playing<br />
rugby league. I had only grown<br />
up playing rugby union but I<br />
picked it up straight away,” he<br />
said.<br />
The club has since become<br />
an integral part of his life. Mr<br />
Michel even met his wife Tracey<br />
through the club. Their son also<br />
played for the club.<br />
The now 54-year-old played<br />
through the grades until premier<br />
Bs and hung his boots up<br />
when he was 28.<br />
Mr Michel took on the role of<br />
club captain when he was 19 and<br />
has coached a number of Linwood<br />
youth teams. A highlight<br />
of his coaching stint was taking<br />
the same group of boys to four<br />
grand-finals from 12s through<br />
to 16s level.<br />

cycleway<br />
plan<br />
• By Caitlin Miles<br />
NEARLY 30 changes to the<br />
Quarryman’s Trail cycleway<br />
plan has not stopped houses<br />
being earmarked for demolition<br />
so car parks can remain.<br />
The preferred option for the<br />
$15.5 million cycleway plans<br />
to connect Barrington St with<br />
Roker St by creating a pathway,<br />
which would require demolishing<br />
two units.<br />
The city council still deems<br />
this the “best option” even after<br />
37 submitters specifically opposed<br />
this part of the plan.<br />
City council head of transport<br />
Chris Gregory said 29 minor<br />
changes were made to address<br />
some of the concerns raised<br />
through the 466 submissions.<br />
Twenty-nine per cent wanted<br />
changes made to the route.<br />

Sixty one per cent supported<br />
the plan and eight per cent<br />
totally opposed it.<br />
“We had some great submissions<br />
come in with some really<br />
constructive ideas and as a consequence<br />
we’ve made a number<br />
of changes that we hope will go<br />
some way to alleviating people’s<br />
concerns,” Mr Gregory said.<br />
Thirty seven opposed and 18<br />
supported the specific part of<br />
the plan which involves purchasing<br />
land between Roker and<br />
Barrington Sts but Mr Gregory<br />
said the project team decided it<br />
was still the best option.<br />
“We could put the cycleway<br />
along Milton St but we would<br />
have to remove all the on street<br />
parking which would have a<br />
detrimental effect on the business<br />
there,” he said.<br />

OUR FRONT page photo article<br />
features Neil Michel, who has just<br />
been awarded life membership<br />
of the Linwood Rugby League<br />
Football Club.<br />
It’s a well-deserved award for<br />
Neil who has put in decades of<br />
work on and off the field for the<br />
Keas.<br />
He’s one of those blokes every<br />
sports club needs – reliable, hard<br />
working and prepared to go<br />
the extra mile to help out when<br />
needed.<br />
He was a bit like that on the<br />
football field from a distant<br />
memory; I’m sure he steamrolled<br />
me a few times during tackling<br />
practice at Linwood Park.<br />
So well done Neil – well<br />
deserved!<br />
And on page 3 we have the<br />
conclusion to the long-running<br />
saga of the floodlights for the<br />
Cashmere Tennis Club. It’s a win<br />
for the club. – Barry Clarke<br />

Lights approved for tennis club<br />
• By Caitlin Miles<br />
RESIDENTS HAVE failed in<br />
their bid to stop the Cashmere<br />
Tennis Club from installing<br />
lights.<br />
During a three-and-a-halfhour<br />
Spreydon-Cashmere<br />
Community Board meeting on<br />
Friday, the board approved the<br />
tennis club’s resource consent<br />
for 10 8m-high lighting poles to<br />
illuminate four of its <strong>13</strong> courts<br />
during winter.<br />
Residents opposed the lights<br />
being installed earlier this year<br />
due to concerns over the light<br />
and noise from players.<br />
The former Spreydon-Heathcote<br />
Community Board wanted<br />
the two groups to meet and go<br />
over the issues in October with<br />
an independent facilitator to see<br />
if an agreed solution could be<br />
reached before going back to the<br />
community board.<br />
A solution was not reached<br />
and the decision was pushed<br />
out until last week’s community<br />
board meeting.<br />
During the meeting, 12<br />
deputations were made to the<br />
community board, eight from<br />
residents opposed to the lights.<br />
Nearby resident Andy Brown<br />
said he opposed the lighting as<br />
he didn’t think it was necessary<br />
APPROVED: The Cashmere Tennis Club has gained approval to light four of its <strong>13</strong> courts for<br />
several months a year. Inset: Tim Scandrett.<br />

to teach children in the evenings<br />
and the light spill would have a<br />
negative impact on his life.<br />
“There will be a reduction of<br />
quality of life in our homes during<br />
winter,” Mr Brown said.<br />
Tennis coach Matt Meredith<br />
said they wanted to light the<br />
courts during winter as the limited<br />
day light hours restricted<br />
how long and how many juniors<br />
they could coach.<br />
“The application was for our<br />
players. We are trying to encourage<br />
our players,” Mr Meredith said.<br />
The club originally requested<br />
to have the lights operating seven<br />
days a week until 9.30pm. The<br />
community board decided to<br />
grant approval on the conditions<br />
the lights would run from 4.30pm<br />
until 8pm, Monday to Friday.<br />
They can only be used during<br />
the months without daylight<br />
saving and will be on automatic<br />
timers. It will also be reviewed<br />
two months from when the<br />
lights are first turned on to see<br />
how the community are affected<br />
by the lights.<br />
Cr Tim Scandrett said it<br />
was about “finding a happy<br />
medium” between the club and<br />
residents.<br />
Stu McHarg said it was a relief<br />
for the club, since they have<br />
wanted the lights for over a year.<br />
They want the lights to be able<br />
to coach the junior players during<br />
winter.<br />
Mr McHarg said it was a<br />
great moment for the club, since<br />
it would mean junior players<br />
would get more opportunities to<br />
improve their skills.<br />
In Brief<br />
SPEED LIMIT PETITION<br />
A petition to lower the speed<br />
limits outside three schools has<br />
been extended until the new year.<br />
National list MP Nuk Korako<br />
created a petition at the end of last<br />
month asking the city council to<br />
lower the speed limit to 40km/h<br />
and install flashing speed signs<br />
outside Te Waka Unua, Linwood<br />
Avenue and St Anne’s Catholic<br />
schools. Mr Korako will now keep<br />
the petition open until the end of<br />
January and present it to the city<br />
council next year.<br />
ST JOHNS ST REPAIRS<br />
A section of St Johns St,<br />
Woolston, between Glenroy St<br />
and St Lukes St has been closed<br />
for road, footpath, kerb and channel<br />
repairs. A detour will be available<br />
down Glenroy St, Hargood<br />
St and Clydesdale St. The repairs<br />
are expected to be completed by<br />
Friday.<br />
NO PARKING<br />
Yellow lines have been installed<br />
along part of Ombersley Tce in<br />
Opawa to improve visibility for<br />
motorists. Residents asked the<br />
Linwood-Central-Heathcote<br />
Community Board to put in parking<br />
restrictions due to concerns<br />
around safety and visibility. Yellow<br />
lines will be installed down<br />
both sides of the road from the<br />
intersection with Hawford Rd.<br />

Caring for river<br />
Karen<br />
Whitla is<br />
the<br />
co-chair of<br />
Opawaho-<br />
Heathcote<br />
River<br />
Network.<br />
She<br />
discusses<br />
the ongoing clean-up of<br />
the Heathcote River and<br />
how she wants the city<br />
council to look at what<br />
they are doing to care for<br />
the river<br />
I have, in my capacity as<br />
co-chair of the<br />
Opawaho-Heathcote River<br />
Network, been involved<br />
in some wonderful people<br />
projects, such as the Whaka<br />
Inaka (whitebait) project, that<br />
many Opawaho River Schools,<br />
were involved with; and sadly,<br />
the most polluted waterways<br />
in the city, Haytons and<br />
Curletts Rd streams.<br />
I am often torn, at the huge<br />
task of a clean, swimmable<br />
Opawaho River, is it all too<br />
big, and how can I make a<br />
difference, when suddenly I<br />
was confronted by an issue<br />
much closer to home, in fact<br />
it was my neighbours and my<br />
homes.<br />
The long-awaited,<br />
earthquake damaged sewer<br />
and stormwater repairs<br />
were assessed and a plan<br />
developed. For my part I was<br />
thrilled to know the sewage<br />
was no longer flowing under<br />
the vegetable garden, down<br />
through the substructure of<br />
the neighbours’ gardens and<br />
out into the Opawaho River at<br />
the end of my street.<br />
Stormwater was a different<br />
issue. I was always proud<br />
that we were not connected<br />
to the stormwater system,<br />
and not contributing to the<br />
zinc and other contaminates<br />
that flow into our waterways<br />
daily. Instead I had rainwater<br />
soak-pits retaining our roof<br />
and floodwater within our<br />
property.<br />
Rainwater gardens aided<br />
in the slow absorption of<br />
stormwater. The only option<br />
given was to connect to the<br />
stormwater, which was in my<br />
opinion, a backwards step in<br />
the fight to reduce polluted<br />
waterways. Fortunately<br />
further investigation<br />
confirmed, that I could<br />
‘replace like for like’.<br />
Sadly, my neighbours,<br />
didn’t have the opportunity to<br />
change back from stormwater<br />
to soak-pits, rain collection<br />
tanks and gardens.<br />
So standing on my soapbox,<br />
with passion, I would like<br />
to encourage, those with<br />
soak-pits, please don’t be<br />
manipulated to connect to<br />
stormwater.<br />
The city council and landcare<br />
both have DIY rainwater<br />
garden details and various<br />
types of rainwater storage<br />
tanks are available from many<br />
large hardware stores.<br />
Our councillors must<br />
seriously look at future<br />
housing developments and<br />
legislate for every house<br />
to have modern rainwater<br />
collection and retention,<br />
as well as every new road<br />
having swales, collecting the<br />
pollutants from our car tyres<br />
and brakes.<br />
We said:<br />
It’s likely the Sydenham<br />
Heritage Church rubble<br />
won’t be moved by the end<br />
of the year, making it nearly<br />
six years. Artefacts the trust<br />
wish to salvage have been<br />
buried under the pile of stone<br />
on the corners of Colombo<br />
and Brougham Sts.<br />
You said:<br />
Deborah Hansen – Not a nice<br />
look. A real eye sore and timely<br />
reminder. Everything should<br />
be cleared now so people don’t<br />
constantly get reminded of what<br />
happened.<br />
Bruce Denton – Time it was<br />
gone, the rubbish pile is getting<br />
worse.<br />
Linda Blackwell – A real<br />
eyesore.<br />
Raymond Low: What the trust<br />
is waiting on is for someone else to<br />
pay for the clean up, recovery and<br />
storage of their mess! I say you’ve<br />
had six years to remove, salvage<br />
and store your rubbish. Now it’s<br />
time the city council cleaned your<br />
mess up and charged the trust for<br />
the cost, then begin proceedings’ in<br />
the courts to recover the costs. As<br />
for your artefacts if they are so important<br />
why have they been left to<br />
decay for the past six bloody years!<br />
Kim Davison – I would imagine<br />
the “artefacts” are a bit skeletal<br />
by now! I might be wrong but<br />
wouldn’t the Halswell Stone have to<br />
be removed so they can get to the<br />
skeletal artefacts? Not something<br />
on the tourists list of something<br />
to see in Christchurch or mine for<br />
that matter.<br />
Alison Fitzgerald – It was<br />
mistakenly demolished and now<br />
left to sit for years. I realise behind<br />
the scenes there will be a raft of<br />
financial hand breaks but surely,<br />
surely some agreement can be<br />
reached? If only to clean up the site.<br />

Aleesha Wedding – There<br />
such thing as a dump right? Or<br />
surely some could be recycled to<br />
make something else.<br />
Denyse Herewini – It’s disgusting<br />
six years and still we have<br />
to look at this rubble what is wrong<br />
with some people – get it moved it’s<br />
not a good look it’s more like telling<br />
people we can’t be bothered.<br />
Janet Roberts: Get rid of this<br />
eyesore put a green space there.<br />
Heather Verile Shirley<br />
Knights – I agree time to go we<br />
are all over this awful sight.<br />
Caroline Onslow - I think it is<br />
a disgrace that this pile of rubble is<br />
still there. I acknowledge that it was<br />
demolished without the proper notification,<br />
but that is no excuse for<br />
it still to be an eyesore for nearly six<br />
years. I drive past this several times<br />
a week and think it is a disgusting<br />
entrance to Sydenham. Somebody<br />
needs to be penalised for leaving<br />
this here otherwise nothing will<br />
be done. Why has the council not<br />
acted?<br />
We said:<br />
Large trucks and trailers<br />
have been doing U-turns<br />
on Ensors Rd, sometimes<br />
holding up four lanes of<br />
traffic to make the turn and in<br />
spite of residents’ concerns<br />
they will still be able to make<br />
these turns. We asked if<br />
you thought it was a safety<br />
concern<br />
You said:<br />
Mechelle Wilson – They do it<br />
all the time. Especially when you’re<br />
sitting on Sullivan Ave and a truck<br />
is doing a U-turn in front of you.<br />
So many close calls where I thought<br />
the truck was going to hit my car.<br />
Dave Carter – You people need<br />
to get a grip and wake up, they have<br />
a job to do. Next you will be having<br />
a whinge because there’s no food<br />
at the shops, no fuel for your cars<br />
and the roads are not getting fixed.<br />
Show some respect for someone<br />
doing a great job every day so that<br />
whingeing people like yourselves<br />
get it easy.<br />
Houses go; car parks remain<br />

However Roker St resident,<br />
Nic McKenzie said the city<br />
council’s decision is “disappointing”<br />
after she suggested<br />
one of the alternative routes<br />
was better to avoid getting rid<br />
of housing.<br />
“The cycleways are a great<br />
idea, I just feel sad that people’s<br />
homes will be demolished<br />
because of it,” Mrs McKenzie<br />
said.<br />
Consultation on the plans<br />
for the 8.3km route that runs<br />
from Halswell, Somerfield,<br />
Addington and Hoon Hay to<br />
Moorhouse Ave opened at the<br />
start of October and closed<br />
early November.<br />
The plans involve lowering<br />
the speed limit to 30km/h in<br />

Great club man rewarded<br />
•From page 1<br />
Affectionately known as ‘Ice<br />
Cream’ to those at the club, Mr<br />
Michel was club president during<br />
the earthquakes and helped<br />
carry the club through a hard<br />
time, which involved losing the<br />
the number of on street car<br />
parking outside of shops and in<br />
residential areas.<br />
The route will be discussed<br />
at the Extraordinary Major<br />
Cycleway Routes Committee<br />
clubrooms on Olliviers Rd.<br />
Mr Michel’s proudest moment<br />
as president was the way<br />
the club dealt with the tragic<br />
death of club legend Marsden<br />
Mateni Tuli, who died at a<br />
training session prior to what<br />
meeting tomorrow, before the<br />
committee decides whether or<br />
not to approve the route.<br />

people to use the cycleway<br />

Mike Vincent<br />
Million dollar mission to save a<br />
Mike Vincent is Kaikoura’s paua saviour. He<br />
reckons he and about 450 volunteers have<br />
saved paua worth more than $1 million<br />
since the November 14 earthquake. Fraser<br />
Walker-Pearce talks to the 44-year-old about<br />
questioning his science teacher and missing<br />
his wife and kids<br />
Where are you while we’re<br />
chatting?<br />
We’re in Boat Harbour in the<br />
south of Kaikoura still, we’re<br />
waiting for a road to open so<br />
we can get access to some bays<br />
further to the north, the different<br />
inlets and bays up there. All<br />
the way from Oaro through to<br />
Peketa is the area we’ve been allowed<br />
to relocate paua.<br />
Talk to me about the process<br />
of relocating paua. What does<br />
that entail?<br />
Before I do I’ll explain how to<br />
normally gather paua. You jump<br />
in at low tide and dive for it;<br />
that’s the way to get it legally. But<br />
now because of the earthquake<br />
you can walk out in sand shoes<br />
without getting wet and reach it.<br />
In my whole 30 years of diving<br />
I’ve never been able to go into<br />
a tidal zone and pick up my six<br />
paua without getting wet. There’s<br />
no science in that, it’s just what’s<br />
happened.<br />
So now you’re wading out,<br />
gathering them and dropping<br />
them deeper?<br />
What we do is we go out at<br />
low tide, when there’s a two hour<br />
window either side of that and<br />
we fill buckets with water and the<br />
harvesters go out and grab them,<br />
and the relocaters who are the<br />
experienced divers, go and place<br />
them on rocks, back into the<br />
water basically. The simple way<br />
of saying it is that we’re moving<br />
them from where there was no<br />
water, to where there is water.<br />
How much depth do you<br />
think has been lost from the<br />
earthquake?<br />
It’s hard to put a number on<br />
it, because all I can say is there’s<br />
hundreds of dead paua on the<br />
beaches now. It’s also important<br />
to ask if in the old tidal zone<br />
pre-earthquake was there any<br />
sea-life on the beach? The answer<br />
is no. In the new tidal zone after<br />
the quake would there be any life<br />
POWER COUPLE: Mike Vincent and wife Debra. Mr Vincent<br />
says she is his rock back in Christchurch.<br />
there? And the answer is still no,<br />
because sea creatures can’t live<br />
out of water (laughs).<br />
And so you’ve brought it on<br />
yourself to get them back in the<br />
water?<br />
A diving mate of mine Dylan<br />
Dhue, his wife Hannah and I<br />
phoned each other the day after<br />
the earthquake. When we saw a<br />
photo of a rock full of paua well<br />
above the water line on Facebook,<br />
that’s what made me call<br />
him and I said to him we have to<br />
do something. And that’s when<br />
I posted my first Facebook plea<br />
for help.<br />
And it all went from there?<br />
Pretty much. So now it’s all<br />
volunteers up here who all feel<br />
the same as us – they’ve all<br />
visited or dived here. It’s touched<br />
all of us. Kaikoura has a special<br />
place in all South Islanders’<br />
minds and hearts. Also a big<br />
thank you to the local runanga in<br />
Kaikoura who offered their help<br />
and support for us.<br />
Obviously you can’t save<br />
every single paua out there –<br />
but how many do you think<br />
you’ve relocated back to the<br />
water?<br />
You’re right we can’t save all<br />
of them. But I’d say we’ve put<br />
between 20,000 and 75,000kg of<br />
paua back into the water. But to<br />
give you an idea, we would fill a<br />
20-30L bucket in about a minute,<br />
so we fill thousands of buckets.<br />
To put a money figure on what<br />
we’re doing, it’s about $90 for a<br />
ton of paua, so we would be talking<br />
over a million bucks for this<br />
operation normally. We’ve probably<br />
had about 450 volunteers<br />
over the whole time helping out<br />
too. I want to say a big thank you<br />
to all our wives out there as well<br />
(laughs). We’ve all got families<br />
mate, they’ve been our rocks, so<br />
letting us go away and do this is<br />
awesome.<br />
We’re coming up to<br />
Christmas now, how much<br />
longer do you think you can do<br />
this for?<br />
We’re waiting for a road to<br />
open up towards Peketa so we<br />
can get there. If it doesn’t open<br />
by Sunday though we’ll have to<br />
call it.<br />

EQC UPDATE KEEPING YOU INFORMED | DECEMBER <strong>2016</strong><br />
The year ahead<br />
A message from outgoing EQC chief executive<br />
Ian Simpson<br />
The Kaikoura Earthquake has been an unwelcome<br />
reminder of the sheer power and unpredictability<br />
of geological forces and of New Zealand’s<br />
vulnerability to these.<br />
The earthquake has also highlighted yet again<br />
the resilience of New Zealanders in the face of<br />
natural disaster.<br />
At EQC, it’s also reminded us that every natural<br />
disaster affects communities in different ways. So<br />
while we have learned a number of lessons from<br />
Canterbury 2010-2011, our response to the<br />
Kaikoura Earthquakes will be different.<br />
One of the key things we learned from<br />
Canterbury is that we should have put more<br />
time early on into building relationships with<br />
customers, community groups, local<br />
Courtesy of Tonkin + Taylor<br />
Don’t wait to hear from<br />
EQC – lodge your claim<br />
Most people seen by EQC in the first<br />
weeks since the Kaikoura<br />
Earthquake of 14 November have<br />
wanted help lodging their claims<br />
and advice on how to get emergency<br />
repairs underway to get them back<br />
into their homes.<br />
EQC Customer and Claims General<br />
Manager Trish Keith says that having<br />
organised three teams on rotation into<br />
the most impacted areas of Ward, Waiau<br />
and Kaikoura to help lodge claims,<br />
provide information and answer<br />
EQC-related questions, EQC is being<br />
kept up to date on customer needs.<br />
“One of the lessons out of Canterbury<br />
was that people wanted information<br />
and the opportunity to talk to someone<br />
about their issues as soon as they could<br />
after an event, so we have ensured that<br />
our response to Kaikoura includes<br />
personal contact,” Mrs Keith says.<br />
“The teams have been dealing with<br />
hundreds of customers one-on-one.<br />
Many people have been asking EQC<br />
when someone from EQC will visit<br />
them, so they will know what to do<br />
next. My advice is that they go ahead<br />
and lodge the claim first. Don’t wait for<br />
anyone to visit.<br />
“Go ahead and lodge your claim to<br />
ensure you are in the system, and any<br />
earthquake damage found later can be<br />
added. If you fail to lodge a claim<br />
before 14 February 2017, we won’t be<br />
able to help you so best to lodge the<br />
government, and government agencies<br />
and insurers.<br />
We are heeding that lesson as we plan our<br />
response to Kaikoura. We’ve had staff on the<br />
ground in Kaikoura, Ward and Waiau to help<br />
customers lodge their claims and answer EQC<br />
related questions. The information our people<br />
are picking up from those areas is being fed back<br />
into our planning.<br />
The work we are doing now will mean that in<br />
2017 we will be putting in place the team we<br />
need to deliver a response tailored to the needs<br />
of customers impacted by the Kaikoura<br />
Earthquake. This team will be part of the new<br />
structure we have developed to also carry on the<br />
remaining work in Canterbury in 2017.<br />
While we are working very hard on responding to<br />
Kaikoura, we also know we have to keep focussed<br />
on resolving the final Canterbury claims.<br />
I’m stepping down as EQC’s chief executive at<br />
the end of this year. I want to thank people of<br />
claim,” Mrs Keith says.<br />
The next steps about claim assessment<br />
and settlement are still the subject of<br />
ongoing negotiations with private<br />
insurers. EQC is confident it will have<br />
news on this soon.<br />
EQC has been prioritising the<br />
vulnerable and the most damaged<br />
homes for visits, as needed.<br />
All EQC teams are working out of<br />
Recovery Assistance Centres set up by<br />
Canterbury Civil Defence Emergency<br />
Management in Ward, Waiau and<br />
Kaikoura so Government agencies and<br />
non-government agencies could deliver<br />
consistently across areas of need.<br />
If you have any questions about<br />
your existing claim or want to lodge<br />
a new claim:<br />
• Visit www.eqc.govt.nz/claims<br />
• Email info@eqc.govt.nz<br />
• Phone 0800 DAMAGE (326 243)<br />
The EQC call centre is open 7am to<br />
9pm Monday to Friday, and 8am to<br />
6pm on Saturdays.<br />
To prepare for making a claim,<br />
remember to have on hand:<br />
• Information about what damage<br />
occurred<br />
• Photographs showing the damage<br />
and any urgent work that was done<br />
• Your insurance policy number and<br />
name of your insurance company.<br />
Courtesy of NZ Fire Service<br />
Canterbury for the support we have received,<br />
and at times for your patience. I acknowledge we<br />
didn’t always get everything right but we have<br />
learned from that. I also want to acknowledge the<br />
EQC staff who worked very hard to support the<br />
Canterbury recovery.<br />
Looking ahead, it’s clear 2017 will be another<br />
year of challenges. I’m confident that EQC will<br />
rise to meet those challenges.<br />
2017 changes<br />
From later this month, EQC will be the main point of<br />
contact for all customer enquiries relating to Canterbury<br />
Home Repair Programme (CHRP) repairs.<br />
Until now, customers have dealt with EQC and/or Fletcher EQR<br />
– depending on what stage their repairs have been at. But, from<br />
16 <strong>December</strong>, EQC’s 0800 number (0800 326 243) will be the<br />
main number for all customers – including those whose<br />
properties are in the current sub-floor review, who will be<br />
transferred to the Fletcher EQR staff focussing on that work.<br />
No delays are intended or anticipated, but personnel changes<br />
due to the completion of about 68,400 first-time CHRP repairs<br />
may mean some customers will have a different contact person<br />
at EQC or EQR in 2017.<br />
EQC’s General Manager Customer and Claims Trish Keith says<br />
these customers will be advised of any changes and provided<br />
with new contact details.<br />
“We don’t want customers who currently have a contact<br />
person at EQC or EQR calling us and only then finding out that<br />
someone else is looking after their claim.”<br />
She says any changes will be limited to EQC and EQR<br />
personnel, and repair work will be carried out by contractors<br />
that have already worked for the home repair programme and<br />
are familiar with EQC’s systems and quality expectations.<br />
Most CHRP contractors will finish work for the year on<br />
23 <strong>December</strong> and resume work from 9 January.<br />
EQC’s Contact Centre hours will be:<br />
• Friday 23 <strong>December</strong>: 7am-5pm<br />
• Saturday 24 <strong>December</strong> – Tuesday 27 <strong>December</strong>: CLOSED<br />
• Wednesday 28 <strong>December</strong> – Friday 30 <strong>December</strong>: 8am-5pm<br />

The new approach uses both on-site and phonebased<br />
assessments, and allows customers to influence<br />
the pace of settlement by giving them the opportunity<br />
to provide earthquake damage data and<br />
photographic evidence.<br />
Thanks to a robust period of planning in advance and<br />
with customers providing information up front, claims<br />
have taken an average of three weeks to reach<br />
settlement from assessment.<br />
Customers who have been through the process have<br />
been surveyed and nearly 90 percent of those who have<br />
taken part have been positive about their experience.<br />
Ms Lapin says EQC had hoped to resolve all February<br />
<strong>2016</strong> claims by the end of the year but it has suited<br />
some customers to defer their assessment to 2017,<br />
meaning a small number remain open and will be<br />
closed early next year.<br />
Land settlements<br />
update<br />
Almost all land claims will be resolved by the end<br />
of the year but there will be some customers who<br />
will get their settlement in 2017.<br />
At the end of <strong>December</strong> <strong>2016</strong>, out of a total of<br />
approximately 73,000 green zone properties we<br />
expect to have resolved 97% of them. This means we<br />
have either made payments to customers or advised<br />
them that they don’t qualify for the types of land<br />
damage known as Increased Flooding Vulnerability<br />
(IFV) and/or Increased Liquefaction Vulnerability (ILV).<br />
“We’ve been working to get an answer to all land<br />
customers waiting to hear from us this year. While we<br />
have worked hard to ensure that customers have<br />
received their land settlement, we are conscious that<br />
some are still waiting”, says EQC’s Head of Customer<br />
and Claims Trish Keith.<br />
“These are the last of the most complex claims that<br />
we need to settle and we will do our best to continue<br />
to deliver robust settlements which can give<br />
homeowners confidence that all properties have been<br />
assessed fairly and consistently”, says Mrs Keith.<br />
“Looking back on the year, we would also like the<br />
opportunity to thank all land customers, community<br />
groups and many other stakeholders, who are also<br />
supporting our customers, for their patience and<br />
understanding as well as taking the time to come to<br />
our community meetings on land settlements or<br />
hosting us and providing us with their feedback”,<br />
concludes Mrs Keith.<br />
The EQC website remains a good source of<br />
information for land customers who want to find out<br />
more about IFV and ILV land damage, which are a<br />
world-first. Please visit www.eqc.govt.nz/IFV or www.<br />
eqc.govt.nz/ILV.<br />

It is with pleasure that am able to report to our<br />
community that Linwood College has had a<br />
most positive year.<br />
It has been a year of significant busyness<br />
reflecting the growth and positive nature<br />
of the wider environment: significantly<br />
increased academic achievement, community<br />
consultation for our redevelopment and<br />
whole-school rebuild, our third year of<br />
providing education at Year 7-<strong>13</strong>, curriculum<br />
and teaching changes for a connected and<br />
pathwayed curriculum, digital learning<br />
and the daily bedrock practices of positive,<br />
learning-focused relationships. At Linwood<br />
College the individual matters.<br />
Education is a vast field and terms<br />
like ‘modern’ and ‘innovative learning<br />
Six Duke of Edinburgh Gold Awards<br />
This year has been an extremely successful<br />
year at Linwood College for many of senior<br />
students who have completed their Duke<br />
of Edinburgh Hillary Gold Award, a highly<br />
distinguished achievement and one which<br />
represents a culmination of many years of<br />
effort, both physically and mentally.<br />

Right Honourable Dame Patsy Reddy<br />
environments’ and ‘21st Century learning’ are<br />
being regularly used in the media. Linwood<br />
is clear-eyed about the forms of education<br />
that work for our students. We are focusing<br />
on ‘flexible learning environments’ so that<br />
learning can be individualised and students<br />
see pathways for themselves that engage and<br />
inspire. It is not about ‘traditional’ or ‘modern’,<br />
but personalisation so the systems adapt to<br />
the learner, not the other way round.<br />
Common sense and formal research are<br />
united and very clear on the attitudes,<br />
skills and knowledge that lead secondary<br />
school students on to a successful postschool<br />
pathway, both in tertiary study and in<br />
employment, and it is the daily focus on these<br />
attributes, principally through our SEaRCH<br />
values – Service, Excellence, Respect,<br />
Curiosity and Honesty – that is at the heart of<br />
our school.<br />

Hello<br />
Experienced stylists &<br />
talented apprentice offer<br />
latest in hair services<br />
After a long history in the central city (it started in 1969),<br />
the Statesman Hair Studio moved to 410 Colombo Street,<br />
Sydenham, in 2012.<br />
Two years later, experienced stylist<br />
Bronwyn Houghton, who had been<br />
working at the Statesman for 17<br />
years under various owners, took the<br />
opportunity to become owner of the<br />
Salon owner Bronwyn Houghton<br />
business herself.<br />
Now in her 20th year with the<br />
Statesman, she has two other staff<br />
members alongside her. They are<br />
Julianne Becker, previous owner/<br />
operator of Cashmere Hair Company<br />
and a talented senior stylist with over<br />
30 years’ international experience, and<br />
Bronwyn’s daughter Maddi, their upand-coming<br />
apprentice, who is in her<br />
third year of training and thoroughly<br />
enjoying her hairdressing career. She has<br />
been named Hairdresser of the Year at<br />
the Avonmore Tertiary Academy for two<br />
years running, and is now working fulltime<br />
in the salon for her third year.<br />
While there are many salons around<br />
the city offering cutting and colouring<br />
services, the stylists at the Statesman<br />
Hair Studio say their point of difference<br />
is that they listen to their clients and<br />
understand how they want their hair to<br />
look.<br />
They offer the latest cutting, colouring,<br />
perming, texturising, finishing services<br />
and make-up tailored to fit each<br />
individual client’s needs, and will also<br />
offer suggestions on how a different<br />
hairstyle or new colour can enhance a<br />
client’s looks and personality.<br />
As well as having the talent and<br />
experience to create stunning hairstyles<br />
in the salon, the stylists also share<br />
with their clients the tips and tricks to<br />
keep their hair looking great between<br />
appointments.<br />
They have a range of quality hair care<br />
products available for purchase, with<br />
The Statesman now an exclusive KEUNE<br />
stockiest. The stylists are very impressed<br />
with all the products in this brand – as<br />
Bronwyn says, “We love it!”<br />
The Statesman Hair Studio is located<br />
on the corner of Wordsworth and<br />
Colombo streets in Sydenham. The<br />
stylists invite you to call in for a free<br />
consultation, or book an appointment<br />

Finding those special gifts and stocking<br />
fillers as well as the Christmas treats for<br />
the table is so easy at our city’s malls and<br />
shopping centres, where the shops are<br />
bursting with festive merchandise.<br />
Every woman likes to receive bodypampering<br />
gifts, and there is a huge<br />
selection of these priced to suit all budgets<br />
at the many pharmacies and gift shops<br />
around the city. Perfume is another<br />
favourite and again there is a wide<br />
selection to choose from, ranging from<br />
exciting new releases to the well-known<br />
fragrances that have stood the test of time.<br />
Lingerie, jewellery, fashion accessories,<br />
homewares and decor items – there’s no<br />
end to the ideas for the women on the list.<br />
The men are equally well catered for, from<br />
the sophisticated metro-male boyfriends,<br />
to the car-crazy brothers and the DIY<br />
in <strong>Southern</strong> <strong>View</strong><br />
enthusiast and keen gardener husbands<br />
and dads. Choose from clothing, books,<br />
tools, personal grooming items and<br />
gadgets to put a smile on their face on<br />
Christmas morning.<br />
Speaking of smiles, nothing gives families<br />
more joy than seeing the excitement<br />
of the children opening their presents.<br />
Whether they are delivered by Santa or<br />
snuck under the tree by mum and dad,<br />
the cuddly toys, games, dolls and building<br />
blocks, the candy canes, toy trucks and<br />
pretty dresses currently filling the shops<br />
will bring squeals of sheer happiness from<br />
the smallest family members.<br />
The tweens and teens usually have their<br />
own ideas about what they want for<br />
Christmas, so the gift cards offered by a<br />
wide range of retailers are the perfect way<br />
to please.<br />

Hello<br />
Restaurant’s authentic Thai<br />
flavours a long-time favourite<br />
The delicious Thai food offered at Green<br />
Chilli in Woolston has been a favourite of<br />
Christchurch’s Thai food lovers for more than<br />
20 years. Originally a takeaway outlet located<br />
in the Woolston shopping centre, Green Chilli<br />
became a fully-fledged restaurant when it<br />
moved further along Ferry Road almost three<br />
years ago.<br />
Situated at 596 Ferry Rd (next to the Three<br />
Boys brewery), Green Chilli still offers the<br />
popular takeaways, but is also a 55-seat<br />
restaurant, where diners can enjoy the authentic<br />
Thai flavours with family and friends in<br />
attractive, Thai-themed surroundings.<br />
A family-run business, Green Chilli still<br />
has the same chef, too. Many of the dishes he<br />
prepares have become customer favourites,<br />
especially their famous Pad Thai, which is the<br />
most popular item on the menu. The chicken<br />
satay with four sticks of large, juicy chicken<br />
pieces is another very popular dish, and great<br />
value at only $10.<br />
Curry puffs, spring rolls and fish cakes<br />
are among the tasty starters, while the wide<br />
selection of main dishes includes green, red and<br />
yellow curries, massaman curry, spicy chicken<br />
lemongrass and<br />
Thai-style salads. To<br />
ensure all taste preferences<br />
are catered for, the chef<br />
prepares the dishes in degrees<br />
of spiciness – mild, medium, Kiwi<br />
hot and Thai hot, according to what is<br />
requested.<br />
Fully licensed, Green Chilli is open from<br />
11-30am-2pm for lunch and from 5pm till late<br />
for dinner, seven days a week. They offer a<br />
Wednesday special – three courses for $22. And<br />
with a 10 per cent discount for group bookings,<br />
Green Chilli is ideal for Christmas and family<br />
functions.<br />
Off-street parking is available and there<br />
is plenty of on-street parking as well. They<br />
also offer a free delivery service – minimum<br />
order $45, within the local area. For over two<br />
kilometres away there is a $5 delivery charge.<br />
Green Chilli is located at 596 Ferry Rd,<br />
Woolston. For bookings or takeaway orders<br />
phone 381 2855, or their new number, 384<br />
9993. They will be open right through the<br />
Christmas and New Year holidays, except for<br />
Christmas Day and Boxing Day.<br />

for the kids<br />
With school holidays creeping closer and<br />
closer, you will be desperately thinking of<br />
some activities to keep the kids occupied and<br />
entertained. Here are a few ideas to get them<br />
out in the fresh air.<br />
Sow Sunflower seeds<br />
Sunflowers add a bright burst of colour and also<br />
draw much-needed bees to the garden. They are<br />
super easy to grow, and give the kids something to<br />
keep an eye on as they begin to grow. Here are some<br />
tips for planting.<br />
1) Pick a part of your garden that has plenty of sun.<br />
For taller varieties, make sure that you plant them<br />
near a fence or trellis so they are protected from the<br />
wind, and so you can tie them back if they start to<br />
topple.<br />
2) Sunflowers like to grow when the weather’s warm<br />
so now is a great time to get in to it.<br />
3) Push the seeds into the soft soil. Make sure<br />
they’re down at least one centimetre, then water<br />
well (using a watering can) afterwards<br />
4) As the plants grow, keep them well watered, and<br />
give them some fertiliser every couple of weeks.<br />
Plant a hanging basket<br />
These looks great, and<br />
take up very little space.<br />
Head down to your local<br />
garden centre and grab<br />
a hanging basket and let<br />
the kids help you pick the<br />
flowers you want to add<br />
in. use South-Hort Patio Plus as your growing mix,<br />
as this contains all the vital nutrients your plants will<br />
need to keep flowering, and help them get through<br />
the summer heat.<br />
Paint pots<br />
Grab some plain terracotta pots, and some paint and<br />
let the kids get creative. Once they are done, choose<br />
some flowers or some herbs and get planting. Once<br />
again, use South-Hort Patio Plus. This mix is designed<br />
specifically for growing in pots, containers and<br />
baskets.<br />

KIDSTUFF<br />
FLAME FILES<br />
Don’t leave clothes in<br />
the dryer unattended<br />
Fire risk management<br />
officer Mark Thomas<br />
talks about call outs<br />
in the lead up to<br />
Christmas, and a new<br />
call out to a fire in an<br />
ice cream truck<br />
Another week and<br />
another series of car<br />
crashes in Christchurch.<br />
Twenty-one attended by<br />
Fire Service troops in the<br />
past seven days.<br />
Lately, these seem to be<br />
increasing quite alarmingly.<br />
It might be the time<br />
of year, it might be something<br />
to do with drink<br />
driving but, whatever it<br />
is, a car crash just now is<br />
pretty much guaranteed to<br />
result in a less than merry<br />
Christmas.<br />
For goodness sake watch<br />
where you’re driving,<br />
watch other traffic and pedestrians<br />
and don’t speed.<br />
You’ve heard the term<br />
‘fire and ice’. ‘Fire and ice<br />
cream’ doesn’t have the<br />
same ring about it does it?<br />
Every now and then<br />
comes an incident that<br />
is new, even to long-time<br />
firefighters. A recently<br />
opened service station in<br />
Harewood had a fire in<br />
an ice cream machine last<br />
Thursday.<br />
It didn’t come to much<br />
and was shut down by<br />
staff with firefighters just<br />
ensuring no fire spread<br />
with a thermal imaging<br />
camera.<br />
I’ve mentioned this before<br />
but leaving the house<br />
with a clothes dryer just<br />
started is not recommended.<br />
We’ve all done it, many<br />
of us not even thinking<br />
THE PLAYHOUSE CHALLENGE<br />
about the possibilities.<br />
Mostly nothing will happen<br />
other than the clothes<br />
being dry when you come<br />
home. But occasionally,<br />
as in Malabar Cres,<br />
Broomfield, last Friday, a<br />
family will come home to<br />
a destroyed home.<br />
By being there while<br />
the appliance is operating<br />
you increase your chance<br />
of cutting off a fire or at<br />
least having us on the way<br />
earlier.<br />
And every second saved<br />
means so much more of<br />
your stuff saved.<br />
Tenants Protection Association (TPA) Christchurch, Birthright Canterbury, and<br />
Star Media are proud to present Canterbury’s first ever ‘Playhouse Challenge.’<br />
The competition will see some of our top architects and building teams compete<br />
against each other to build Canterbury’s best playhouse and receive an award for<br />
‘Best Architectural Playhouse’ or the ‘People’s Choice’.<br />
The best five playhouses will be judged by an expert panel and members of the<br />
public attending the 2017 Star Home & Leisure Show. The playhouses will be on<br />
display at the Show from 30 June until 2 July, where they will also be auctioned.<br />
Proceeds from the auction will be shared between TPA and Birthright Canterbury<br />
to support their ongoing work in the community.<br />

FOCUS ON HEALTH<br />
Arthritis &<br />
back pain<br />
to rest or keep moving?<br />
With arthritis and back pain 30 years ago<br />
the advice was to rest. But research has<br />
shown that inactivity only makes things<br />
worse.<br />
Move, move, move is always the advice<br />
for arthritis. Staying in bed with back pain<br />
often results in greater difficulty moving<br />
and may prolong the pain. Better to stay<br />
active, garden or walk to the shops.<br />
A pain killer may enable you to continue<br />
normal activities. Any movement, no<br />
matter how small, helps relieve pain. Start<br />
gently with something you enjoy.<br />
There’s no quick fix for back pain but<br />
you need to keep moving. You can keep<br />
your legs and lower back moving with an<br />
Aircycle circulation booster while you sit.<br />
By working your legs, your core muscles<br />
which help support your back, also work<br />
and strengthen. Lower back pain and<br />
sciatica, aching legs and joints are often<br />
relieved this way.<br />
So move – even while you sit. The<br />
Aircycle “pedal” exercise enables this. And<br />
don’t forget to laugh occasionally. That<br />
massages your internal organs and helps<br />
you relax.<br />
Back pain however, has many and varied<br />
causes. Never neglect seeking medical<br />
advice.<br />

Effective<br />
natural skincare<br />
that is ideal for<br />
problem skin<br />
MooGoo produce a full range<br />
of safe, natural skin and scalp<br />
products that are especially<br />
suited for those with problem<br />
skin. In these products they<br />
only use top quality edible<br />
ingredients that are known to<br />
be highly effective and good<br />
for our skin. These active<br />
ingredients are only used in<br />
correct concentrations for<br />
effective results and not just<br />
added to look good on the<br />
label. Because the MooGoo<br />
range is so safe and yet so<br />
effective is probably why it<br />
was rated the number one<br />
most preferred brand of nonprescription<br />
(non-steroid)<br />
creams for those suffering from<br />
problem skin in Australia.<br />
It is also recommended by<br />
many medical practitioners in<br />
Australia.<br />
As MooGoo products are<br />
safe and natural they are ideal<br />
for long term use from babies<br />
to adults. They are an effective<br />
alternative or follow-up<br />
treatment to chemically-based<br />
ointments.<br />

Collagen<br />
the body’s youth protein<br />
Collagen is the primary<br />
protein in the body. It is a major<br />
component of skin, hair, nails,<br />
muscles, tendons, ligaments,<br />
joint cartilage, bones, gums,<br />
teeth, eyes, and blood vessels.<br />
In fact collagen is the primary<br />
structural component for all<br />
tissue in the body, providing<br />
the strength and resilience<br />
associated with youth, beauty<br />
and wellness. The body’s natural<br />
collagen production decreases<br />
with age resulting in many signs<br />
of aging, such as flaccid skin,<br />
wrinkles, ligament and tendon<br />
injuries and aching joints.<br />
Collagen supplementation is<br />
one of the most fundamental<br />
things a person can do to<br />
prevent premature aging and<br />
promote youthful vitality.<br />
NEOCELL are the industry<br />
leaders in research on collagen<br />
supplementation. Through<br />
advanced research they have<br />
perfected a way to hydrolyse<br />
collagen and effectively reduce<br />
its molecular weight this<br />
improving the absorption of<br />
collagen into the blood stream<br />
by over 90%.<br />
A clinical study on<br />
NEOCELL COLLAGEN<br />
has shown skin hydration to<br />
increase an average of 21%<br />
and up to 50%, with 92% of<br />
test subjects experiencing<br />
firmer, softer skin. Most<br />
people taking NEOCELL<br />
COLLAGEN reported seeing<br />
visible improvements within<br />
two weeks.<br />
Collagen supplementation<br />
provides the nutrients necessary<br />
to support the body’s collagen<br />
supply. It can help reduce fine<br />
lines and wrinkles and improve<br />
skin elasticity, support building<br />
of strong bones and teeth,<br />
strengthen the nails and hair,<br />
and is vital for muscle growth,<br />
It also assists weight loss by<br />
helping burn fat for energy,<br />
promotes wound healing by<br />
supporting the regeneration of<br />
healthy tissue as well as help<br />
support overall health.<br />

their vehicle is in the workshop, SMART<br />
