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 />

some residential areas, changing<br />

round layouts and reducing<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 />

The city council expect 5000<br />

people to use the cycleway<br />

daily.<br />

was meant to be his last game<br />

for the club.<br />

The way the club got around<br />

the family and came together<br />

as a unit was very special and<br />

something he will remember<br />

forever.<br />

SOUTHERN VIEW<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 />

You must have a lot of good<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 />

February earthquakes.”<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 />

Gymnast needs help<br />

FUNDRAISING IS under way<br />

to help send Hoon Hay gymnast<br />

Stella Ashcroft to her next<br />

the competitions.<br />

They are in the middle of<br />

fundraising for the trip and<br />

aim to get $10,000 before they<br />

leave for the competition. They<br />

have been selling fudge, pasta,<br />

sausage sizzles and selling items<br />

on Trade Me to meet their goal.<br />

Currently they have raised<br />

$7300.<br />

The gymnasts will head to<br />

Texas, United States, for the<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 />

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 />

haven’t already done so.<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 />

Scratch on the bumper? Dent in the door?<br />

Damage like this can happen so easily – in<br />

supermarket car parks, for example. And<br />

the place to get minor damage quickly and<br />

professionally repaired is SMART Repairs<br />

those repairs quickly and efficiently.<br />

To keep their customers on the road while<br />

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

Repairs recently acquired a courtesy car,<br />

help for people, Maxine says. They also offer<br />

As a small, friendly operation, SMART<br />

Repairs specialises in small to medium<br />

repair work, with no job too small, Maxine<br />

says. Their aim is to provide personalised<br />
