Oli back home after 

a year on 

the prowl 

• By Sarla Donovan 

OLI THE cat is back. 

Well, owner Lyn 

Gottermeyer is 99 per cent sure 

it’s Oli. 

The big maine coon lookalike 

went missing in June last 

year and Mrs Gottermeyer, 

who lives in Marshland, said 

after months and months of 

searching, she’d given up any 

hopes of finding him when 

her daughter noticed a post 

on the Lost Cats Christchurch 

Facebook page last month. 

“ ‘Mum, I think that’s Oli,’ 

she said. I took a look and he 

had the same markings. It was 

a lady in Spreydon who’d found 

him, he’d been hanging around 

her place and then took up 

residence in her garden.” 

Jeanette O’Connor, who 

posted his photo on the 

Facebook page, has a labrador 

and three cats of her own and 

Oli had been going in and 

stealing food from them. 

“She cried when I went and 

picked him up,” said Mrs 

Gottermeyer. 

So how did he end up 

travelling from Marshland to 

Spreydon? 

“I think either someone 

took him because of the way 

he looks, or he’s got into 

someone’s vehicle. We 

had contractors around 

the day he went missing 

and he’s very inquisitive. 

He might have climbed 

into their van.” 

Mrs Gottermeyer kept 

him inside for a week 

after he returned, just 

to make sure he didn’t 

disappear again. 

She thinks he must have 

eaten well as he’s “a bit 

broader” than when he left. 

“I’ve noticed he doesn’t like 

my husband as much, but 

I’ve got three fox terriers and 

they always got on well. One 

of them went and laid down 

in front of him. He likes to 

be outside; he always used to 

sleep on the back porch but 

now he goes down to the creek 

somewhere and gets soaking 

wet. He’s one of a kind, Oli.” 

MEOW: Pet Oli is back with 

owner Lyn Gottermeyer after 

disappearing for a year.

MEASURES TO improve the 

safety of school children crossing 

Ferry Rd may be brought 

forward. 

The Linwood-Central- 

Heathcote Community Board 

will ask the city council to fast 

track time frames for speed 

reduction measures outside 

Te Waka Unua and St Anne’s 

Catholic schools. 

The move comes after the city 

council’s Ferry Rd Masterplan, 

which was meant to solve the 

safety problems by reducing speed 

limits along sections of Ferry Rd, 

was pushed back. 

Board member Alexandra Davids 

said safety needed to 

come “before masterplan time 

frames.” 

The two schools want the speed 

reduced from 50km/h to 40km/h 

during school pick-up and dropoff 

times along with flashing 

speed reduction signs.

Home, Sea & Between 

JoSH BaSHford 

The imagery in Josh Bashford’s new body of work was inspired by last summer’s 

early morning and late evening fishing adventures. Adventures such as heading 

40km offshore to fish for Groper off Banks Peninsula, or ducking down to 

Birdlings Flat for a relaxing evening surf casting on the beach, fishing the Rakaia 

River or Hurunui river mouth early morning for the elusive Chinook salmon. 

These places are of great significance for Josh Bashford. They provide him with 

not only a harvest of fresh kai for friends and family, but also the visual material 

for his art making. 

This visual material is sometimes captured on 

a GoPro camera, but more often it’s caught by 

simply being physically present in these very 

special places. It’s the way a bird may move 

through the air, a sudden glimpse of a fish 

breaching, or the excitement of hundreds of birds 

and kahawai chasing after small bait fish along 

the beach. All this strong imagery settles itself 

in Josh’s mind and has allowed him to produce 

this new body of limited edition woodcut prints 

on canvas. 

Josh’s latest exhibition named ‘Home, Sea & 

Between’ takes place at Little River Gallery from 

July 8th until August 2nd.

Council’s $25m property buy-up 

• By Bridget Rutherford 

MORE THAN $25 million has 

been spent on buying properties 

for cycleways, roading projects 

and flood remediation in the last 

two years. 

Figures released under the 

Local Government Official 

Information and Meetings Act 

show since November 2015, 

the city council has bought 42 

properties and pieces of land, 

costing $25.1 million. 

Two of the latest purchases, 

finalised last month, were 

properties in Somerfield that 

needed to be bought to make 

way for the Quarryman’s Trail 

cycleway. 

The $915,000 purchase of 

the properties, on Roker and 

Barrington Sts, was contentious 

as the owners were not keen to 

sell. 

It spent just over $2 million 

buying land parcels and properties 

as part of the Northern Arterial 

project. 

They included some on 

Winters Rd, and others on 

Cranford St and Innes Rd to 

make room for Cranford St to 

become four-laned as part of the 

work. 

Some properties were bought 

for flood remediation plans for 

the upper Heathcote storage 

project, the Styx stormwater 

management plan, and Bells 

Creek. 

On top of that 13 houses 

and properties were bought in 

Flockton Basin at a cost of 

$3 million. Some were bought 

so the property could be used 

for the Dudley Creek Flood 

Remediation Scheme. 

Seven were properties the city 

council had to buy because they 

could not be protected from 

flooding, even after the $48

million scheme is completed. 

Two street frontages along Lincoln 

Rd were bought last month 

for its road widening project, 

costing $24,240. From 2011 to 

November 2015, the city council 

spent $65.1 million on property 

purchases. 

In Brief 

GRANT FOR CENTRE 

The Pūkeko Centre development 

has been awarded a $400,000 

grant from the lottery community 

facilities fund. The joint venture 

between two sports clubs has seen 

the relocation of two buildings 

from the now closed Freeville 

School on to the Parklands 

Bowling Club site. The money will 

go towards setting up the former 

school hall to provide a venue for 

indoor sports, performances and 

events. 

FUMES CAUSE INJURY 

A man was taken to Christchurch 

Hospital after fumes from a 

generator filled the building he 

was in. St John were called to the 

scene on Travis Country Drive, 

Burwood, at about 7.40am last 

Wednesday and found a man 

feeling dizzy from the fumes. 

Firefighters were called to assist 

ambulance staff and he was taken 

to hospital with moderate injuries. 

QEII DRIVE EXPANSION 

Steel safety barriers are being 

installed on QE II Drive this 

week, from Grimseys to Innes Rd. 

There will also be site clearance 

work involving tree felling and 

vegetation removal along QE II 

Drive, allowing work to start on 

building two new traffic lanes. 

Work is due to finish on July 24.

FLAME FILES 

Rescuing animals 

all part of the job 

• By Mark Thomas – specialist fire 

investigator 

I’M NOT sure what got into the 

pets of Halswell last week but 

over just two days our crews 

were called to three animal 

rescues in the suburb. 

First a dog chased a rabbit 

underneath a childcare centre – 

and stayed there. 

It was retrieved. Second, a 

horse was stuck down a bank at 

Kennedy’s Bush. With local help 

and a vet on-site it was winched 

up. 

Finally, an old fashioned catup-a-tree 

event in Arkwright Pl 

shows no record of just what was 

done in the radio message log. 

It might still be there. But I 

doubt it. 

To complete this animal report 

a mama duck from Bromley, 

who is a bit out of season with 

her troop of ducklings, fell into 

a drain only to be rescued by the 

good lads of the Woolston Fire 

Station. 

A bit early in the year you’d 

think. I hope they all survive. 

There were fires of course. 

A very elderly lady wielding a 

walking stick actively prevented 

neighbours evacuating her from 

her home in Sockburn after a 

kitchen fire on June 24. 

Consequently, she was treated 

for smoke inhalation at the 

scene. 

Someone in Redwood used a 

toaster as a cigarette lighter by 

lying it on its side on June 23. 

Not too surprisingly the 

toaster caught fire. 

There’s a thousand ways your 

house can catch fire. 

But there are many hundreds 

of thousands of houses. 

Most will never burn. 

A bit of common sense makes 

it much less likely. 

Just how common that common 

sense is, I sometimes 

wonder. 

We said: 

Linwood College is on 

the move to the former 

Avonside Girls’ High School 

site while the school is 

being rebuilt 

You said: 

Laura McIntosh – Lots of 

chopping and changing and 

moving of sites to create this 

Avonside Girls’ High School/ 

Shirley Boys’ High School super 

school. Seems like they should 

be staying where they are. Is 

Linwood going to adopt this new 

student-led learning policy like 

Haeata? 

Lisa Armstrong – This has 

made me so mad. I have had 

several chats with the principal 

and others and they all said that 

they won’t be moving, as they 

didn’t want it to interfere with 

the students and thought moving 

VISION: Architect Carsten Auer will redesign Linwood College, 

which will move to the former Avonside Girls’ High School site 

while it is rebuilt.

sites would do more harm 

than good. The original plan 

was to do one block that was not 

being used at the time, i.e build 

a new gym on site, then remove 

the old building. 

Sounds like saving dollars 

became the first priority. 

Stephan Lance Gardiner 

– Fact of the day, the grounds 

were used as the morge for the 

influenza pandemic during the 

war before the school was built.

News 

Lower speed zones may be brought forward 

•From page 1 

But St Anne’s was facing the 

prospect of a three to five-year 

wait after the Linwood Village 

project was met with public criticism 

and was taken back by the 

city council. 

Principal Dallas Wichman 

said that was “a lot of time in the 

meantime for someone to get run 

over.” 

He was pleased to hear that 

the city council may look at 

prioritising the speed zones. 

“There’s a lot of schools higher 

up the order (for getting speed 

zones) which are in quiet roads, 

compared to us. In terms of the 

volume of cars, we must be one of 

the highest in the city.” 

Traffic figures from April last 

year showed along Ferry Rd 

between Osborne St and Aldwins 

Rd an average of 24,600 vehicles 

per day used the road with 1810 

during peak traffic from 8am- 

9am and the same figures for the 

school peak between 3pm and 

4pm. 

A 1759-signature petition was 

presented to the city council in 

March, asking for its support in 

lowering speed limits outside the 

schools. 

Meanwhile, Linwood Avenue

Gym club stumbles 

over QE II Park build 


IT’S BACK to the drawing 

board for the Christchurch 

School of Gymnastics after its 

proposed new building site was 

rejected by residents. 

The club has been in its 

current spot at QE II Park for 

21 years, but says the cost of 

repairing the building is high 

and it wants to relocate closer to 

the new QE II Recreation and 

Sports Centre. 

However, Dan O’Sullivan, 

who lives near Ascot Ave, 

said he and at least 25 nearby 

residents aren’t happy about the 

spot that has been chosen, and 

they’ve made their voices heard 

in two recent meetings at the 

proposed site. 

Coastal-Ward city councillor 

David East said a “co-operative” 

discussion was held on 

Thursday between the CSG, 

city council staff, Coastal- 

Burwood Community Board 

members and residents. 

As a result, a new consultation 

document will now be 

drawn up and delivered to the 

local community within the 

next few weeks. It will present 

several options which may include 

the original QE II site. 

Mr O’Sullivan said he was 

pleased there would be other 

options put on the table as the 

current proposal was in the 

middle of the sports grounds 

and partially covered one of the 

rugby fields. 

“It’s going to be an eyesore, 

built on a prime position in the 

middle of the park. That rugby 

field is well-used. They’ve already 

covered up a playing field 

for the schools (Shirley Boys 

and Avonside Girls’ High).” 

“It seems like there’s a land 

grab. We don’t mind the 

schools, but the gym school, 

which is a private company, 

doesn’t need to be there. It’s an 

ugly, tilt-slab, single-use building, 

a private facility in the middle 

of a public park.” 

“They’re trying to piggy-back 

on the pool but we can’t see 

their point (about wanting to be 

closer to the recreation centre).” 

The club has said it wants to 

remain close to the recreation 

centre “so members could 

potentially use both facilities in 

one visit.” 

Following further public 

consultation, the community 

board will make a final 

recommendation on a site to 

the city council.

HELP: City council ranger Kenny Rose helped Isla Cook to place her penguin 

nesting box at Harris Bay. 

Nine-year-old’s bid to 

help save the penguins 

HILLVIEW Christian 

School pupil Isla Cook is 

doing her part to protect 

endangered penguins. 

The nine-year-old turned 

her school project into a 

conservation reality this 

month, placing her homemade 

penguin nesting box 

on site at Harris Bay, near 

Taylors Mistake. 

Isla has been doing an 

endangered species topic 

at school and chose to do 

her project on the whiteflippered 

penguin – which 

involved making an action 

plan on how to save it. 

“I chose the white-flippered 

penguin because it 

lives close to us so I could 

actually do something. We 

found out you could sponsor 

a penguin nesting box 

on Quail Island, but that 

cost $500, so I persuaded 

dad to help me build one,” 

Isla said. 

After some home handywork, 

the box was ready 

to go and Isla emailed the 

Department of Conservation 

to get advice on where 

she could put it. 

DOC put her in touch 

with city council ranger 

Kenny Rose and the pair 

worked together to put the 

nesting box in place by the 

pine trees at Harris Bay. 

“We dug out a bit of the 

hill and had to lever out 

all sorts of rocks. Then we 

put the box in place and 

chose a nice view for the 

penguin and then covered 

the box with big stones and 

rocks and earth to keep the 

penguin safe and make it 

look like part of the hill,” 

Isla said. 

The Harris Bay colony 

has around 65 breeding 

pairs which produce between 

80 to 90 chicks each 

season. 

Mr Rose said Isla’s 

project was a fantastic 

initiative for someone 

so young, and he looked 

forward to seeing the 

nesting box become home 

to a penguin. 

“It’s so great to see kids 

taking the initiative to do 

conservation and wildlife 

projects. As rangers, that 

is so wonderful to see, so 

we were more than happy 

to help Isla complete 

her project and get the 

penguin nesting box 

installed,” Mr Rose said. 

Isla plans to revisit the 

nesting box site in the 

future and hopefully plant 

some Ngaio on it to make 

it look nice.

Council makes peace 

with RSA over Brighton memorial panels 


AN APOLOGY has been 

extended to the New Brighton 

RSA after it copped some of 

the blame for the “ugly” panels 

installed around the war 

memorial by the city council. 

The $25,000 panels were 

intended to protect the New 

Brighton War Memorial from 

vandalism. 

But after their installation 

in May, they received almost 

universal condemnation from 

the community. The panels were 

called “hideous”, “horrible” and 

compared to the Berlin Wall. 

City council staff apologised 

for their poor communication on 

the issue at a meeting with New 

Brighton RSA executive manager 

Garry House on Friday. 

Mr House said although they’d 

agreed to the panels, they had 

never seen an image of what they 

would look like. 

He said the city council 

had failed to communicate 

directly with the New Brighton 

RSA, instead directing 

their correspondence to the 

Christchurch RSA, a completely 

separate group. 

Mr House said he was keen to 

move on and was working cooperatively 

with the city council 

to resolve the issue. 

Andrew Rutledge, city 

council head of parks, said the 

city council would continue to 

“monitor the situation and liaise 

with the community to ascertain 

if and when it might be prudent 

to remove the barriers.” 

Mr House said the city council 

had asked him to consult New 

Brighton RSA members about 

different options for protecting 

the memorial. 

One option could involve 

removing the panels but making 

the area more visible through 

increased lighting, signage and 

cameras. 

Coastal-Burwood Community 

Board chairwoman Kim Money, 

who was also at Friday’s meeting, 

said it was good to get everybody 

around the table. 

“We want to look forward 

rather than back.” 

Mr House said he hoped to 

meet with the city council again 

this week after speaking to RSA 

members.

Rescuing animals all part of the job 

• By Mark Thomas – 

specialist fire investigator 

I’M NOT sure what got into 

the pets of Halswell last week 

but over just two days our 

crews were called to three 

animal rescues in the suburb. 

First a dog chased a rabbit 

underneath a childcare centre 

– and stayed there. 

It was retrieved. Second, a 

horse was stuck down a bank 

at Kennedy’s Bush. With 

local help and a vet on-site it 

was winched up. 

Finally, an old fashioned 

cat-up-a-tree event in Arkwright 

Pl shows no record 

of just what was done in the 

radio message log. 

It might still be there. But I 

doubt it. 

To complete this animal 

report a mama duck from 

Bromley, who is a bit out 

of season with her troop of 

ducklings, fell into a drain 

only to be rescued by the 

good lads of the Woolston 

Fire Station. 

A bit early in the year 

you’d think. I hope they all 

survive. 

There were fires of course. 

A very elderly lady wielding 

a walking stick actively 

prevented neighbours evacuating 

her from her home in 

Sockburn after a kitchen fire 

on June 24. 

Consequently, she was 

treated for smoke inhalation 

at the scene. 

Someone in Redwood used 

a toaster as a cigarette lighter 

by lying it on its side on June 

23. 

Not too surprisingly the 

toaster caught fire. 

There’s a thousand ways 

your house can catch fire. 

But there are many hundreds 

of thousands of houses. 

Most will never burn. 

A bit of common sense 

makes it much less likely. 

Just how common that 

common sense is, I sometimes 

wonder.

Golden anniversary for jewellers 


ANDREW KELSO is fascinated 

by jewellery. 

The 45-year-old took over 

Westende Jewellers from his 

father Roger in 2013, but he’s 

worked in the business for 30 

years, starting as a youngster doing 

engraving work after school. 

He loves seeing the hallmarks 

on a ring or bracelet, telling 

where and when it was made. 

Vintage and antique pieces 

have become an increasingly 

important part of the business, a 

way to differentiate from massproduced 

chain stores. 

Westende celebrate their 50th 

anniversary this year and Mr 

Kelso says helping customers is 

still one of the most fulfilling 

parts of the business. 

“A lady we helped recently had 

developed arthritis in her hands 

and had to cut her rings off but 

they meant a lot to her, so we 

made a bangle and set her stones 

into it,” he said. 

“There’s nothing more satisfying 

than a remake; (it might 

be) helping a couple with their 

engagement or wedding bands, 

sourcing stones – just seeing a 

client’s dream become a reality.” 

BLING: Andrew Kelso celebrates the 50th anniversary of the family-owned Westende jewellery 

store. 

PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER 

Mr Kelso’s father was a police 

detective in 1967 when he 

decided to buy a pawn shop and 

costume jeweller, also called 

Westende Jewellers, at 207 Manchester 

St. 

He’d married Margaret a year 

earlier and the couple, who were 

in their early 20s, weren’t keen 

on a possible transfer out of 

Christchurch. 

Roger already knew a bit about 

the business having visited 

regularly during policing work, 

so they took the plunge and 

worked long hours over the 

next few years to transform the 

pawnbrokers into a fine jewellery 

business. 

They shifted to the corner of 

Manchester and Worcester Sts in 

the 1980s. 

But, after the September 4, 

2010, earthquake, the business 

settled in Colombo St, Sydenham. 

Dealing in vintage goods 

means they have to take precautions, 

always ask for identification 

and hold the pieces for a 

period of time. 

“If there’s any reason staff 

are suspicious, they’ll let police 

know. Once we made a specific 

time for a guy selling jewellery to 

come back and the police were 

here waiting for him – took him 

away for a wee chat.” 

Fashions come and go in 

jewellery, but Mr Kelso assures 

me diamonds are still a girl’s best 

friend. 

“If it’s an engagement ring, it’s 

generally a diamond. They still 

far outsell any other gemstone. 

Sapphires would be second and 

rubies are also popular at the 

moment.”

Cross-country athletes make NZ team 

• By Andrew King 

CASHMERE HIGH students 

Connor Melton and Liliana 

Braun have been selected for the 

New Zealand secondary schools 

cross-country team to compete 

in Hobart in August. 

Melton and Braun competed 

in the New Zealand secondary 

schools cross-country championships, 

held in Christchurch 

on June 17-18, and will now test 

their skills against international 

competition. 

Both Braun and Melton said

• By Andrew King 

A NERVOUS wait has given way 

to jubilation for Cashmere High’s 

first XI football players as they 

found out yesterday 

they will be heading 

to nationals. 

Cashmere, along 

with Lincoln High, 

St Andrew’s College 

and St Thomas, will 

compete against the 

best 32 teams in the 

country at the national 

tournament in 

Napier in September. 

It was touch and go 

for Cashmere, who were pushed 

out of the top four last week after 

a 3-2 loss to St Thomas, but the 

school was told on Monday that 

in spite of that, they have qualified. 

am interested to see how I will go 

against a larger field, as I’ve only 

ever raced against New Zealanders 

before.” 

Said Melton: “After missing 

out in previous years, making 

this team in my last year of high 

school is a big achievement for 

me.” 

Cashmere High sports director 

Michael Jones said the school is 

proud of their students selection. 

“Connor has been a great 

representative of the school at 

running events throughout his 

time at Cashmere and it is great 

to see his hard work rewarded. 

Liliana has been shining since 

she arrived in year 9 and continues 

to do great things with her 

running. She is a truly dedicated 

and talented athlete,” he said. 

Melton said for the past four 

months he has been training and 

racing six times a week, specifically 

to peak for nationals, where 

the national team gets selected 

from. 

Braun said she has also been 

putting in the hard yards with 

five runs a week and a day dedicated 

to biking. 

“I was pleased that all the 

training has paid off,” Braun 

said.

HIGH SCHOOL 

Coach Craig Squire said the 

players were distraught after the 

loss, but that has all changed now 

they know they have made it. 

“This means a lot to this team. 

We have been to the 

past six national tournaments 

in a row and 

getting there again was 

a definite goal for us,” 

he said. 

He said it will take a 

bit of pressure off his 

side and hopefully let 

them concentrate on the 

football. 

“Now we need to get 

back on the horse. I was 

proud of the effort the boys made 

to stay in the game last week. 

However, we need to show more 

desire and be hungry for the ball 

with more passion,” he said. 

Burnside High will be disappointed, 

Squire said. They now 

have to apply for a wildcard position, 

in spite of being in fourth 

spot while Cashmere are in fifth. 

Cashmere takes on Papanui at

HOME & HEATING 

Choosing the right heat 

pump for your home 

Whether it be a new build, or a retrofit, 

most homes include at least one heat pump, 

if not a whole heating solution. They can 

provide cheap, clean heat and are much more 

convenient than a log burner as you just need 

to press a button. But how do you decide 

what is best? Choosing the right sized heat 

pump is key to ensuring optimum comfort 

levels. Every situation varies and it is therefore 

important to get professional advice from heat 

pump experts. 

The range varies from wall mounted high 

walls, floor mounted systems, multi systems, 

ceiling cassettes, right through to ducted 

central heating systems allowing you to have a 

very discreet way of heating your whole home 

to a constant temperature throughout. 

Firstly, you must select a heat pump that 

is suitable for the size of the space you wish 

to heat. Usually a site visit is the best way to 

ascertain this. Not only is the size of the area 

taken into consideration but also, insulation, 

building orientation, windows and ceiling 

space. There are a wide range of heat pumps 

available with different heating outputs so it 

is important to select the correct size for your 

requirements that will handle the job but not 

be unnecessarily overpowered. 

Secondly, the location of your heat pump 

is also extremely important. The cheapest 

installation is a back to back where the outdoor 

unit is positioned directly behind the indoor 

unit however this is not necessarily always 

the best option. It is vital that the indoor 

unit is positioned in a place that will not be 

constantly blowing on you. Also important, is 

the location of the outdoor unit. Most people 

do not want their outdoor unit sitting directly 

in their outdoor entertaining area or right 

outside their bedroom window. 

Choose a brand you can trust. Many brands 

have come and gone over the years but there 

are a number of manufacturers who provide 

reputable and reliable products. All brands 

vary in their energy efficiency, quietness of 

systems and price, so it depends on your 

application as to which will be most suitable. 

Major brands such as Panasonic, Fujitsu, 

Mitsubishi, Daikin, Toshiba and Hitachi are 

all reliable brands backed up by good technical 

after sales service. 

Ensure your heat pump is installed by an 

accredited installer. This will not only ensure 

correct installation of your heat pump, but 

also validate the manufacturers warranty. 

Other things to consider when choosing a 

heat pump are time clocks, ease of use of the 

remote controllers, air filtration and also wifi 

capabilities. 

Heating is a major investment in your home 

and it is vital to get the right advice. 

Enviro Master Ltd specialise in the supply, 

installation and servicing of all major brands 

of heat pumps. Our salesmen are engineers 

ensuring you get quality, unbiased advice as 

to which system will suit your application 

the best. Enviro Master Ltd offer a free, no 

obligation quote and will come to your home 

to see what is required. Visit our website at 

www.enviromaster.co.nz. 

The facts about 

home ventilation 

Balanced Pressure vs Positive Pressure 

Under the New Zealand Building Code, 

all buildings, including residential, need to 

be suitably ventilated, either with opening 

windows or forced ventilation. Clause G4.1 

states: “The objective of this provision is 

to safeguard people from illness or loss of 

amenity due to lack of fresh air.” There are 

many benefits to forced, or mechanical, 

ventilation over opening windows, including 

warmth, security, reduction of outside noises 

and reduction of condensation. 

Traditional domestic ventilation systems 

are ‘positive pressure’. They bring air in from 

outside via the roof space and force the stale air 

out through gaps around windows and doors. 

The incoming air from these 

systems has to be heated or 

cooled to keep the house warm 

in winter or cool in summer. 

The Smooth-Air HEX390 is 

a ‘balanced pressure’ system. It 

extracts air from the house and 

at the same time brings in fresh 

air. These two streams of air 

pass through a heat exchanger, 

which warms incoming air in 

winter and cools in summer if 

air conditioning is being used. 

This means that up to 80% of 

the energy which would be 

wasted using a traditional positive pressure 

system is recovered, resulting in significant 

energy savings and therefore lower heating or 

cooling costs. 

Until recently, balanced pressure ventilation 

systems have been considerably more 

expensive than traditional positive pressure 

systems. However, with Smooth-Air’s unique 

manufacturing capabilities, a HEX390 

balanced pressure system can be installed for 

a similar price as a traditional positive pressure 

system.

Supporting your bowel and digestive 

function helps prevent disease 

It is most important to keep the 

whole digestive and elimination 

systems of the body working efficiently. 

Otherwise toxins that have not been 

eliminated set the stage for disease. 

Many diseases have been linked with 

micro-organisms (virus) or a bacterial 

component. Generally these microorganisms 

or bacteria can only survive 

due to the fact that the environment 

they are in is suitable for their survival. 

Non eliminated toxins are probably 

one of the main causative factors for 

their survival. We know that when the 

digestive system and bowel function 

are poor we have many more health 

problems. These include arthritis, digestive 

problems like reflux and stomach pain, 

bladder infections, chronic skin conditions 

such as eczema, psoriasis and rashes, poor 

eyesight, pain and inflammation, tumors 

and a weakened immune system just to 

name a few. 

Nature’s Sunshine LBS II contains a 

highly effective blend of natural herbs to 

support the whole digestive system and it 

is especially effective at cleansing the lower 

bowel and intestinal tract. It is commonly 

used for arthritis, constipation, diarrhea, 

digestive problems, dry stool, fever, colds 

and influenza, flatulence, gallstones, gout, 

skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis, 

urinary infections, liver dysfunction, 

Candida, weakened immune function and 

for people who want to keep their health as 

good as possible. 

The herbs in LBS II help stimulate the 

production of digestive fluids and bile 

for efficient digestion. This alone may 

help prevent many diseases as a properly 

working digestive system will itself 

neutralise many disease causing organisms 

before they have a chance to cause any 

problems. LBS II also stimulates peristaltic 

action of the colon effectively cleansing 

the colon of any accumulated build-ups of 

waste material. It also relaxes abdominal 

cramping and spasms, enhances liver 

function, purifies the blood, neutralizes 

acidic conditions, helps destroy intestinal 

parasites and worms, and fights infection. 

Keeping your digestive system and 

bowels functioning efficiently is definitely 

an important step in obtaining and 

maintaining good long term health. 

LBS II and further information is 

available from the Natural Health 

Advisers at Marshall’s Health & Natural 

Therapy, 110 Seaview Road, New

Osteoporosis is a serious condition 

...but research shows it can be reversed! 

Osteoporosis is not taken as a serious 

condition by most people! Most people 

don’t realise they have osteoporosis until 

a fracture happens, as there are usually 

no signs or symptoms. Fractures can 

commonly be debilitating with chronic 

pain and can lead to early mortality. 

Fractures kill more women than all 

gynaecological cancers put together and 

one in six women taken to hospital with 

a hip fracture, will not come out alive and 

men fare even worse. Around one in three 

women and one in twelve men are affected 

with osteoporosis. 

The most common osteoporotic fractures 

are of the wrist, spine, shoulder and hip. 

Vertebral collapse is a compression fracture 

and causes back pain often with shooting 

pains due to compression of the nerves. 

Multiple vertebral fractures lead to a 

stooped posture, loss of height and chronic 

pain with reduced mobility. Hip fractures, 

in particular, usually require prompt 

surgery, as there is a serious risk associated 

with it of deep vein thrombosis and 

pulmonary embolism leading to increased 

mortality. 

Osteoporosis literally means “bones with 

holes”. It occurs when bones lose minerals 

such as calcium more quickly than the 

body can replace them. Although calcium 

is essential for bone health other minerals 

like magnesium, zinc and trace minerals 

like silica, boron, manganese, copper are 

essential also. Vitamin’s D3 and K2 have 

been shown to be essential in a bone 

support program. 

A less well known mineral strontium, 

that is naturally found in your bones 

has been researched and found in 

four landmark studies to actually 

reverse bone loss when sufficient other 

nutrients are present. One study of 1,649 

postmenopausal women with osteoporosis 

who had had at least one fracture were 

divided into two groups. Both groups 

took vitamin D and calcium supplements. 

One group were also given 680mg/day 

of strontium. After the three year study 

the strontium group showed an unheard 

of average bone growth of 8.1%. This 

study shows that osteoporosis can not 

only be halted but may even be reversed 

and without the side effects of common 

osteoporosis drugs. 

Further information on how to 

support your bone density and overall 

health is available from the natural 

health specialists at Marshall’s Health 

& Natural Therapy, 110 Seaview Road, 

New Brighton, Phone: 388-5757. We are 

Always Happy to Help! 

BREAKTHROUGH AGAINST OSTEOPOROSIS 

Osteoporosis, the weakening of the bone is a serious health threat 

that often leads to severe pain, fractures & early mortality. Research 

has found the bones can be re-mineralised & strengthened when 

the required nutrients are present. Minerals calcium, magnesium & 

vitamins D3 & K2 are essential but are not enough in many cases. 

A missing link appears to be the mineral strontium. 

Research shows strontium to positively affect bone density. 

- Supports strong healthy bones, teeth & nails 

- Is a naturally occurring mineral often lacking in the 

modern diet 

- Found in healthy bones & teeth but lacking in people 

with osteoporosis

HEALTH & BEAUTY 

Journey to a smile 

continued... 

“Over the last few years Smile Concepts has 

helped my extreme fear of the dentist, treating 

me as a person not a dental guinea pig.” 

Visiting the dentist can be a daunting proposition for many 

people, who fear they may have to endure a painful process 

when having their teeth treated. That’s where the caring team 

of experienced dentists team at Smile Concepts can help, by 

providing painless treatment. Plus, the personal touch they 

offer by taking time to go over all the treatment options and 

associated costs means those who fear a dental surgery will be 

immediately put at ease. 

One patient who is very happy with their service tells her 

story… 

“My name is Jacinta. I am a 27-year-old wife and mum from 

Christchurch. I have enamel hypoplasia, which is a lack in 

enamel formation. In most cases, the enamel on people’s teeth is 

low or thin, but I have no enamel on all my teeth, resulting in a 

dark-yellow colouring. 

After a life of struggling with everything from bullying to 

failed ‘fixes’, I decided to once again pursue my smile dreams. 

After ringing around Christchurch dentists, Smile Concepts was 

the first ‘off the bat’ to know about hypoplasia. Natalie happily 

booked me in for a consultation. 

Over the last few years Smile Concepts has helped my 

extreme fear of the dentist, treating me as a person not a dental 

guinea pig. Natalie always did what she knew would work 

instead of trying things that might. 

In January 2017 I contacted Dr Dee from Vogue Dental 

Studios in Melbourne. He is kindly donating his time, skills 

and expertise to give me my dream smile. Financially, this is 

something I would have never been able to do without Dr Dee. 

And Natalie has been fabulous in helping prepping me for my 

trip to Australia with photos, bite guards, moulds and cleaning”. 

On June 2, Jacinta had the opportunity to tell her story on 

Seven Sharp, just one week before she flew to Melbourne to 

begin her journey. Before she left, Jacinta had her final hygienist 

clean at Smile Concepts where the team wished her well in 

Melbourne, and now look forward to helping her maintain her 

beautiful new smile in the near future. 

Smile Concepts is proud to help patients like 

Jacinta with any dental problems they may have. 

Their knowledgeable staff members use safe and 

proven procedures, the latest technology, materials 

and philosophies to enhance your teeth and smile.

Trees and Power Lines 

The responsibilities of tree owners and Orion under the 

Electricity (Hazards from Trees) Regulations 2003 

Orion New Zealand owns and operates the electricity distribution network in central 

Canterbury between the Waimakariri and Rakaia rivers and from the Canterbury coast 

to Arthur’s Pass. Trees touching power lines account for 10-20% of all unplanned power 

outages on our network. If you see a tree touching a power line, or any other hazardous 

tree condition, please contact us immediately on 03 363 9898 or 0800 363 9898. 

This advertisement provides a general notice of the Electricity (Hazards from Trees) 

Regulations 2003 and the dangers of trees near power lines. More detail on these issues 

can be found on our website www.oriongroup.co.nz or by phoning us on 03 363 9898. 

The Electricity (Hazards from Trees) Regulations 2003 

The regulations set out the responsibilities of electricity line companies and tree owners. 

The purpose of the regulations is to protect the safety of the public and help to ensure a 

secure supply of electricity. The regulations: 

• define safe separation distances between trees and power lines 

• specifies who is responsible for ensuring clearances are maintained 

• places potential liability on the tree owner if any damage or accident occurs due to 

trees touching power lines. (Note that the word “trees” includes all types of vegetation, 

including shrubs, hedges and climbing vines.) 

What are the dangers? 

Trees near power lines need to be trimmed or removed for the following reasons: 

• children like to climb trees and when trees are close to power lines there is a risk of 

serious injury or death 

• in severe weather conditions, vegetation can become electrically “live” and may 

electrocute anyone or anything that touches it 

• while a tree may not touch a power line in fine weather, branches can bend or break in 

wind or snow storms, causing serious damage and possibly prolonged power outages 

• in dry conditions, electrical sparking caused by branches or windblown debris on lines 

may cause fires. 

Minimum distances required between trees and power lines 

The minimum distances that must be maintained between trees and power lines, defined in 

the regulations, are outlined in the diagram to the right. A common sense approach, by tree 

owners trimming trees early, will generally prevent trees touching power lines. 

To maintain a safe distance from power lines some trees require cutting or trimming 

more frequently than other trees, but if it is determined that cutting or trimming cannot 

satisfactorily meet the requirement then removing the tree is recommended. Other 

situations may require trees to be felled because they are at a distance that is considered 

to be a hazard due to falling during storms or being diseased. 

Orion’s tree management programme 

Orion’s tree management programme is largely governed by the Electricity (Hazards from 

Trees) Regulations 2003. Our programme involves education, monitoring and the cut/trim 

or removal of trees that threaten to come into contact with power lines. Through this 

programme we work with tree owners to minimise the risk of their trees touching power lines. 

We currently undertake periodic cutting or trimming of vegetation within the notice zone. 

The intent of this cutting or trimming is to support safety and reduce the risk of power 

outages. This periodic cutting or trimming by us does not remove the tree owner’s 

responsibilities and in the case of fast growing species may not be sufficient to ensure 

that trees remain outside of the growth limit zone. You will be notified prior to any periodic 

trimming being carried out and the work will be completed by arborists carrying Orion 

identification. 

If Orion becomes aware of a tree which is within the ‘Notice zone’ (see Tree “A” in the diagram 

below) then we are required to issue the tree owner with a Hazard Warning notice. For trees 

within the ‘Growth limit zone’ (see Tree “B” in the diagram below) we are required to issue the 

tree owner with a Cut or Trim notice. 

What is a hazard warning notice? 

If a tree is within the “Notice zone” (see Tree “A” in the diagram), we are required to issue a 

hazard warning notice to the tree owner. 

Tree “A” 

Notice

Growth

Tree “B” 

Power line Notice zone Growth limit zone 

66kV (high voltage) 5.0 metres 4.0 metres 



400V/230V (low voltage) 1.5 metres 0.5 metres 

Note: 

V = Volts; kV = kilo Volts ie 1,000 Volts 

1) These distances are from the power line, not the power pole 

2) These distances are a minimum and apply in all conditions including high wind or snow 

3) In most instances the power lines that go to a house or building are low voltage power 

lines. Power lines that go down a street may be low or high voltage. 

Trimming trees near power lines 

Trimming trees near power lines can be extremely hazardous and the dangers should not 

be underestimated. Contact with a power line can cause: 

• injury or death to yourself, family or passers by 

• injury or death to livestock 

• damage to property and other trees 

• damage to electrical appliances 

• damage to power supply facilities 

• damage to third parties. 

We recognise that the public is not always experienced in tree trimming, so we are happy 

to advise you on this. We can arrange for trees near power lines to be trimmed at your 

cost. If, however, you prefer to arrange your own tree trimming, we recommend you hire 

professionals with the necessary expertise and safety procedures to competently carry out 

this work. 

If you or someone working for you intends to work within 4 metres of power lines, a close 

approach consent is required from Orion before you start. As a tree owner you may be liable 

for any damage caused by carrying out trimming or felling of trees. 

A hazard warning notice alerts the tree owner that the tree has encroached the notice zone 

and that if it encroaches the “Growth limit zone” (see Tree “B” in the diagram) a cut or trim 

notice may be immediately given to the tree owner (see above). 

The growth limit zone is the area around a power line which trees must not encroach even 

in windy or snow conditions. The notice zone is a distance one metre beyond the growth 

limit zone. 

What is a cut or trim notice? 

If we become aware that a tree has encroached on the “Growth limit zone”, we will give 

notice in writing to the tree owner that the tree must be cut or timed to maintain the 

distances prescribed in the regulations, and the timeframes for action. 

If no action is taken Orion may then trim the tree and seek to recover costs. 

Who pays for the cut or trim? 

Orion is responsible for the first cut of trees near power lines, where the first cut is on a 

property basis, not owner basis. We have already met this obligation by completing a first cut 

of vegetation on all our lines. 

The tree owner will need to organise and pay for any subsequent and future cuts or trims. 

We are happy to provide tree owners with a list of approved arborists who can carry out this 

work, and also advise the best solution given the circumstances. 

What fines can be imposed? 

A tree owner commits an offence where a cut or trim notice is given, and without reasonable 

excuse, the tree owner fails to have the tree cut or trimmed and/or fails to advise us of the 

time and location of the cut or trim. 

A person who commits such an offence is liable on summary conviction to a fine not 

exceeding $10,000. If the offence continues, that person is also liable for a further fine of 

not more than $500 for every day or part day during which the offence continues. 

Contact us if in any doubt about your tree 

We aim to work with tree owners to ensure safety is maintained and power outages are 

minimised. We will actively work with tree owners to see trees are trimmed or cut before 

regulatory powers are applied. However, as we wish to ensure the safety and security of the 

public, we will use the regulations where necessary. 

Please contact us or an approved Orion tree trimming contractor to help with your trees, 

or to discuss your options.
