Pet Pippi<br />

part of<br />

parade fun<br />

• By Bridget Rutherford<br />

PIPPI IS part of the family.<br />

So when the Bromley sisters headed<br />

to the America’s Cup victory parade<br />

last week, they weren’t going to leave<br />

her behind.<br />

Jade Bromley tucked Pippi into her<br />

puffer jacket to keep her warm, and<br />

headed to the central city from their<br />

Huntsbury home with sisters Ashley<br />

and Holly.<br />

They, along with about 6000 people<br />

braved the freezing rain, wind and<br />

sleet on Wednesday to celebrate Emirates<br />

Team New Zealand’s America’s<br />

Cup triumph in Bermuda.<br />

The <strong>18</strong>-year-old said in spite of the<br />

cold, Pippi didn’t seem to mind being<br />

there.<br />

She said their parents were huge<br />

sailing fans, and had encouraged them<br />

to head along to catch a glimpse of the<br />

team and the Auld Mug.<br />

Lack of<br />

aquatic<br />

facility a<br />

barrier for<br />

wider<br />

Linwood<br />

• By Bridget Rutherford<br />

HAVING NO local swimming<br />

pool is the biggest barrier for<br />

those living in the wider Linwood<br />

area, a new survey has found.<br />

The Linwood Development<br />

Aspirations: Our Social and<br />

Recreational Hopes survey interviewed<br />

499 people living and<br />

working within a 1.5km radius of<br />

the centre of Linwood Park.<br />

The findings, released last week,<br />

showed overwhelming support for<br />

a pool to be built in the area.<br />

The city council has allocated<br />

about $20 million to build a pool<br />

over the next three years. But it<br />

has not yet been determined how<br />

big it would be, or where.<br />

The survey, carried out last year,<br />

asked what people currently did<br />

for fun, what activities they would<br />

like to be doing, the barriers stopping<br />

that, and what would make it<br />

possible.<br />

In total, 103 people said they<br />

would like to take swimming<br />

lessons.<br />

But about half of those said they<br />

could not because there was no<br />

aquatic facility in the area.<br />

IF YOU are a city councillor or<br />

community board member in the<br />

Linwood area, read page 1.<br />

Because the good people of<br />

Linwood are beating the drums<br />

very loudly for a swimming pool.<br />

We reveal today having no local<br />

swimming pool is the biggest<br />

barrier for those living in the<br />

wider Linwood area. The Linwood<br />

Development Aspirations: Our<br />

Social and Recreational Hopes<br />

survey interviewed 499 people<br />

living and working within a<br />

1.5km radius of the centre of<br />

Linwood Park.<br />

About $20 million has been<br />

allocated to a pool over the next<br />

three years. Whether that happens<br />

remains to be seen.<br />

Linwood desperately needs<br />

community facilities and a pool<br />

is a perfect start. The local body<br />

elections are still a way off, but the<br />

pool issue will be a hot election<br />

topic when they come around.<br />

years, will celebrate what’s great<br />

about living, working, playing<br />

The expo is a partnership<br />

between local community<br />

groups and organisations, some<br />

social and public service groups,<br />

Eastgate Shopping Centre, local<br />

businesses and the city council.<br />

Residents, community groups<br />

and businesses come together to<br />

celebrate what they value about<br />

the area, whether it be diversity,<br />

resilience, vibrancy or strong<br />

community spirit.<br />

It also allows people to find<br />

out what is happening in greater<br />

Linwood and what various<br />

community groups and social<br />

MEET UP: The greater Linwood community will come together for the It’s Great to Live Here<br />

<strong>2017</strong> expo on Friday. ​<br />

Wheelchair<br />

users will<br />

get to use<br />

beach mat<br />

• By Caitlin Miles<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

GETTING A wheelchair<br />

across the soft sand at the<br />

beach is about to get easier<br />

thanks to a special mat.<br />

Come the summer season<br />

the North New Brighton Residents’<br />

Association and North<br />

Beach Surf Club will roll out<br />

a special wheelchair mat as a<br />

trial.<br />

It’s designed to make it easier<br />

for those in wheelchairs and<br />

with other mobility disabilities<br />

to get from the concrete across<br />

the soft sand and onto the hard<br />

sand near the water.<br />

Association chairman Josiah<br />

Thompson said it was “very<br />

exciting” to be able to provide<br />

the mat so the less able would<br />

not miss out on enjoying the<br />

beach.<br />

The mat will be stored at the<br />

surf club, every morning it will<br />

be rolled out and brought back<br />

in at the end of the day by the<br />

surf club.<br />

Mr Thompson said he hopes<br />

following the trial they will be<br />

able to keep it permanently but<br />

will need to wait and see. ​<br />

SOUTHERN VIEW<br />

Richard Jolly<br />

Former oil trader finds reward<br />

Teacher Richard Jolly is<br />

head of social science at<br />

Linwood College but in<br />

his former life, he was a<br />

London-based oil trader<br />

who travelled the world.<br />

Sarla Donovan talks to<br />

him about what a trader<br />

does and why he moved<br />

to Christchurch<br />

Oil trader to social studies<br />

teacher – why the change?<br />

To do something worthwhile<br />

and bring up a family in<br />

Christchurch. I taught in Camp<br />

America for a year before oil<br />

trading and loved it. I wanted to<br />

go back to it; teaching students is<br />

very rewarding – and there’s not<br />

many oil trading jobs here.<br />

It sounds exotic.<br />

It is exotic. I travelled to many<br />

countries – the United States<br />

lots of times, Egypt and Russia<br />

and the Baltic States. I was<br />

based in London, but did a lot<br />

of work in Hamburg and Zug<br />

in Switzerland. It’s a great life,<br />

but if you have small children<br />

you never see them. I spent<br />

hours and hours oil trading<br />

and realised one day, sitting<br />

at my desk that I was paying a<br />

nanny to take my daughter to<br />

the beach. That’s really when<br />

I decided to make the change.<br />

That was 14 years ago. We<br />

moved from Switzerland to New<br />

Zealand and I trained at the<br />

New Zealand Graduate School<br />

of Education. My wife Beth is<br />

from Methven but it wasn’t all<br />

her choice, she certainly wasn’t<br />

putting the pressure on to come<br />

back.<br />

What do oil traders need to<br />

be good at, what’s involved?<br />

You need to be good with<br />

people, good with numbers<br />

and good at making decisions.<br />

I’d make contacts in different<br />

countries, buy large quantities<br />

of oil, organise shipping, ship<br />

it halfway across the world,<br />

hedge the price using the futures<br />

market, talk to refineries to<br />

process it. So, you have to work<br />

with a lot of different people.<br />

Are there any similarities<br />

between the two jobs?<br />

Not a lot – the lunches are<br />

quite different! You’re still<br />

working with people<br />

though, that’s the same.<br />

So were you<br />

here during the<br />

earthquakes?<br />

Yes . . . but I wish I wasn’t.<br />

How did they affect<br />

you?<br />

Not good.<br />

We lost our<br />

house in the<br />

February 2011<br />

earthquake<br />

and like many,<br />

it took six years<br />

to get it replaced.<br />

Meanwhile, we<br />

moved 13 times,<br />

including one<br />

year back in<br />

the UK.<br />

I was offered a job back in oil<br />

trading when we went back but<br />

chose to stay in teaching and<br />

worked in a very posh English<br />

public school, Dauntsey’s.<br />

So Linwood’s not the only<br />

school you’ve taught at?<br />

No, prior to the earthquake<br />

I worked at Catholic<br />

Cathedral College, which I<br />

very much enjoyed, and<br />

only left because my<br />

house was destroyed.<br />

I commuted in<br />

from Methven<br />

for a few<br />

months but<br />

then got<br />

a job at<br />

Mt Hutt<br />

College followed by a spell back<br />

at Dauntsey’s.<br />

Did you grow up in the<br />

countryside back in the UK?<br />

I grew up in a town called<br />

Beaconsfield, just outside of<br />

London, and it was great but the<br />

town has now been swallowed<br />

by London commuters and is<br />

not really very nice now.<br />

Are your family still back in<br />

the UK?<br />

Yes, people are still around.<br />

My parents have lived in the<br />

same place for 52 years and I<br />

try to get back every year or<br />

<strong>18</strong> months. I also have four<br />

brothers over in that part of the<br />

world.<br />

PEOPLE: Teaching and oil trading are both peoplefocused<br />

jobs, says Richard Jolly.<br />

No pool a barrier for Linwood<br />

•From page 1<br />

Thirty-three others said there were not<br />

enough community facilities and spaces<br />

for social and recreational activities.<br />

City councillor Yani Johanson said the<br />

survey results were a good reminder for<br />

why the area needed a pool.<br />

“There’s been a really strong desire and<br />

need for a pool and recreation centre for<br />

a long time.”<br />

Of the 81 children interviewed, 28 said<br />

they wanted a swimming pool.<br />

Eighty-nine 13 to 25-year-olds were<br />

interviewed.<br />

Nineteen said they wanted to be able to<br />

go swimming, but many said there were<br />

no facilities close by, and it was too far<br />

to travel to one. Twenty-seven said they<br />

wanted a pool.<br />

Of the 210 26 to 64-year-olds interviewed,<br />

45 wanted to be able to go swimming<br />

for leisure, but 28 said there were<br />

no facilities nearby.<br />

Seventy-two wanted a pool.<br />

One-hundred-and-nineteen people<br />

over the age of 65 took part in the survey,<br />

with <strong>18</strong> saying swimming or aqua exercise<br />

was something they wanted to be<br />

able to do.<br />

However, 12 said having no local pool<br />

stopped them from doing that, and 30<br />

wanted some sort of aquatic facility.<br />

Did you attend a co-ed school like<br />

Linwood?<br />

No, I went to a boys grammar school; we<br />

were academics and rugby. The teachers<br />

wore gowns and it was very formal. The<br />

school was good for me, it got me into<br />

Cambridge University where I studied<br />

engineering. It was amazing – I was there<br />

for three years – we had our bicycles, played<br />

sport, rugby and hockey. And from there I<br />

won a scholarship to do my masters in the<br />

US, then became an oil trader.<br />

Your three kids must keep you pretty<br />

busy these days. Do you find time for<br />

sports or hobbies?<br />

I sometimes think I run a taxi service;<br />

football, ballet, gymnastics. Weekends<br />

involve cheering my kids on in their<br />

sports and trying to get out myself for a<br />

hit of tennis or a round of golf. I think it’s<br />

important that we find time to balance our<br />

lives, it makes you a better parent and a<br />

better teacher.<br />

Where are you off to in the school<br />

holidays?<br />

We’re heading over to Australia for<br />

a family holiday. Very much looking<br />

forward to it.<br />

News<br />

Halswell shelter recaptures past<br />

THE STORY of a women’s<br />

refuge has been captured in a<br />

Halswell shelter.<br />

Canterbury’s heritage has<br />

been reflected in a remembrance<br />

structure that recalls<br />

and tells the story of Mount<br />

Magdala, an <strong>18</strong>80s women’s<br />

refuge and its historical farm<br />

buildings.<br />

Titled A Place to Shelter, the<br />

new structure in McMahon<br />

Reserve outlines the history<br />

of the area and incorporates<br />

repurposed heritage material<br />

from the original Mount Magdala<br />

farm.<br />

The Halswell-Hornby-<br />

Riccarton Community Board<br />

has been involved in the design<br />

options.<br />

“We are delighted a new<br />

remembrance structure now<br />

features in McMahon Reserve,<br />

incorporating heritage material<br />

from the original Mount<br />

Magdala farm. It brings history<br />

to life in the Aidanfield area,”<br />

Community Board chairman<br />

Mike Mora said.<br />

The shelter stands on the<br />

site of the farm that once provided<br />

all the food for Mount<br />

Magdala, and, later, St Joseph’s<br />

Orphanage.<br />

It presents a new chapter in<br />

the story of the many shelters<br />

sited on the land.<br />

By using material from the<br />

original farm, it acknowledges<br />

the rural and social history of<br />

the area now known as Aidanfield.<br />

Indeed, Aidanfield was<br />

named after one of Mount<br />

Magdala’s founding sisters,<br />

Mother Aidan Phelan.<br />

Mount Magdala was a largely<br />

self-sufficient home run by the<br />

Sisters of the Good Shepherd.<br />

The farm buildings were<br />

arranged in a U-shape with<br />

a central courtyard, replicating<br />

the traditional English<br />

farmstead seldom seen in New<br />

Zealand.<br />

HISTORY:<br />

The new<br />

information<br />

shelter in<br />

Halswell<br />

tells the<br />

story of a<br />

pioneering<br />

women’s<br />

refuge. ​<br />

Mount Magdala provided<br />

food and shelter for hundreds<br />

of women, and later children,<br />

until 1966.<br />

The official opening of A<br />

Place to Shelter will be held on<br />

Sunday at 11.45am at McMahon<br />

Reserve on the corner of<br />

McMahon Drive and Aidanfield<br />

Drive.<br />

Hillmorton student holds new national records<br />

• By Andrew King<br />

A NUMBER of national<br />

swimming records now belong<br />

to Hillmorton High’s Celyn<br />

Edwards after a solid showing at<br />

the world para swimming series<br />

in Berlin.<br />

Celyn, and his brother Ieuan,<br />

travelled with the five-strong<br />

New Zealand team which broke<br />

one Oceania and 10 national<br />

records, had a number three in<br />

the world-ranked performance,<br />

three swimmers achieving<br />

Commonwealth Games<br />

qualifying times and 20 personal<br />

bests.<br />

Celyn, 16, now has the<br />

record times for 50 and 100m<br />

butterfly, 50 and 100m freestyle,<br />

50 and 100m breaststroke<br />

and 50m backstroke in the S8<br />

classification category.<br />

He said he was pleased with<br />

his performance, but was<br />

mentally and physically<br />

tired.<br />

“I really enjoyed the experience<br />

of being able to see all the<br />

other swimmers from all over<br />

SPORTS<br />

the world. I’m very happy with<br />

my performance and know what<br />

to work on in the future, my<br />

coach has given me some things<br />

to change,” he said.<br />

Fourteen-year-old Ieuan didn’t<br />

manage to break any records but<br />

broke six of his own personal<br />

bests in the 50, 100 and 200m<br />

breaststroke, 50 and 100m backstroke,<br />

50 and 100m freestyle<br />

events.<br />

In the 200m breaststroke, he<br />

beat his previous best by 11sec.<br />

“It was a great to be able to<br />

swim at an international meet. I<br />

felt that in all of my races I gave<br />

my all. It was hard to walk up<br />

the stairs after races back to my<br />

coaches as my legs were so tired,”<br />

he said.<br />

The next event on the horizon<br />

for the Edwards brothers are the<br />

South Island championships in<br />

Blenheim in August followed by<br />

the short course championships<br />

held in Auckland in October.<br />

Celyn’s big goal is to qualify<br />

for the Commonwealth Games,<br />

while both want to represent<br />

their country at the Paralympics.<br />

“As parents, we are really<br />

proud of the way the lads have<br />

applied themselves and worked<br />

very hard over the years to reach<br />

their goals. It was terrific to see<br />

them enjoy the competition<br />

and have the success they have<br />

strived for,” mother Nicky Edwards<br />

said.<br />

Both swimmers represent the<br />

Selwyn Swim Club.​<br />

New treatment for fungal nails<br />

Feet First, the long-established<br />

podiatry clinic in Upper Riccarton, now<br />

has a much more efficient and effective<br />

means of dealing with the problem of<br />

fungal nails, thanks to a new machine<br />

they recently obtained from Britain,<br />

where it was designed and trialled.<br />

Clearanail is a procedure where the<br />

Podiatrists use a machine to make<br />

tiny holes in the nail without affecting<br />

the nail bed – a completely pain-free<br />

procedure that then allows the topical<br />

application of antifungal<br />

solution to directly reach the<br />

problem area.<br />

Fungal nails may cause<br />

the toenail to thicken, which<br />

consequently can make shoes<br />

feel uncomfortable. Anyone<br />

who believes they have a fungal<br />

infection of the nails is invited<br />

to make an appointment for a<br />

consultation with Feet First so one of the<br />

qualified Podiatrists can assess if that is<br />

the case, and if so, will recommend the<br />

Clearanail procedure. This involves the<br />

initial treatment, and three follow-up<br />

appointments at monthly intervals to<br />

check progress.<br />

“Fungal nail infections won’t disappear<br />

immediately,” clinic director Charlotte<br />

Russell says, “so people need to commit<br />

to the process, which can take up to four<br />

months as the nail grows.”<br />

effective treatment, Feet First has<br />

another unique feature – the Shoe<br />

Room. Here, clients can browse<br />

through a wide selection of ‘fashionable,<br />

functional footwear’ for men and<br />

women that not only provides support<br />

and comfort, but also looks modern and<br />

attractive.<br />

The four registered and experienced<br />

Feet First Podiatrists offer the full range<br />

of podiatry services for all ages and all<br />

conditions, with customised treatment<br />

provided for every client. They also<br />

offer a range of quality foot treatment<br />

products, including the German brand<br />

Gehwol.<br />

The clinic at 37 Main South Road is<br />

open Monday to Friday from 8.30am to<br />

5pm, with late nights on Monday and<br />

Thursday to 7pm by appointment. The<br />

Shoe Room is open Monday to Friday<br />

9am-4pm. There is on-site parking<br />

available.<br />

Feet First also runs several satellite<br />

clinics. These are at the Marshland<br />

Family Health Centre, Marshland<br />

Road on Mondays, the Redcliffs<br />

Clinic, Augusta Street, on Wednesday<br />

afternoon and Friday morning, the<br />

Waltham Medical Centre, Waltham<br />

Road on Wednesday afternoon, and at<br />

Darfield Pharmacy on Friday.<br />

NEW TECHNOLOGY TO TREAT FUNGAL NAILS<br />

The Clearanail machine and<br />

related products.<br />

Clinic director Charlotte Russell displays<br />

one of the modern boot styles available<br />

in the Shoe Room.<br />

She says now is an ideal time to start<br />

fungal nail treatment with Clearanail,<br />

so nails will be looking healthy again<br />

when the warm, sandal-wearing<br />

weather arrives. Feet First has an<br />

introductory offer on Clearanail until<br />

the end of <strong>July</strong>.<br />

GREAT food<br />

BROUGHT TO YOU BY...<br />

Your fresh food people<br />

CHICKEN BREAST WITH<br />

MUSHROOM STUFFING<br />

AND MARSALA GLAZE<br />

Ingredients<br />

1 Garlic clove<br />

1 Shallot, or small onion, diced<br />

15g Butter<br />

50g White Button mushrooms<br />

2 slices Bread, stale and diced<br />

1 Tbsp Parsley, finely chopped<br />

1 Lemon, zest<br />

2 Chicken breasts<br />

1 Tbsp Oil<br />

3 Tbsp Marsala, or sherry<br />

2 Tbsp Cream<br />

Directions<br />

Stuffing<br />

In a small frying pan, fry the<br />

garlic and shallot in the butter<br />

until translucent. Add the mushrooms<br />

and fry for 2-3min until<br />

cooked. Add the breadcrumbs,<br />

cooking until the butter has<br />

been absorbed.<br />

Take off the heat, add the parsley<br />

and lemon zest and season<br />

with salt and freshly ground<br />

black pepper.<br />

To cook the chicken<br />

Heat the oven to <strong>18</strong>0 deg C.<br />

Stuff the chicken breast by lifting<br />

the tenderloin up (if there is no<br />

tenderloin, ignore this). Press<br />

half of the stuffing on to the<br />

breast meat. Cover the stuffing<br />

with the tenderloin. Wrap the<br />

breast with kitchen string to secure<br />

the stuffing in place and tie.<br />

Repeat with second breast.<br />

Heat a frying pan and add oil.<br />

Add the breasts skin side down<br />

and season with salt. When<br />

browned on one side, turn and<br />

season again. After 3min, place<br />

the pan in the hot oven for a further<br />

10-12min or until cooked.<br />

Remove from the oven and<br />

cover with foil to rest for 5min.<br />

To serve, place the chicken on a<br />

chopping board and remove the<br />

string.<br />

Slice in half and place on a<br />

warmed plate. Cover with foil<br />

while you make the sauce.<br />

Return the pan of chicken<br />

juices to the hob. Add the<br />

marsala or sherry and let it<br />

reduce for 2-3min (this is called<br />

de-glazing). Add the cream and<br />

taste for seasoning. Pour the<br />

sauce over the chicken. You may<br />

need to pour over through a<br />

sieve to remove any burnt pan<br />

leftovers. Season with freshly<br />

ground black pepper. Serve with<br />

potatoes and greens.<br />

BROAD BEAN, SNOW PEAS,<br />

1 pinch Salt<br />

1 pinch Ground cinnamon<br />

¼ cup Orange juice, use up to<br />

½ cup<br />

Directions<br />

FOCUS ON HEALTH<br />

Time Honoured<br />

Remedy<br />

Are you<br />

Magnesium<br />

According to a country Doctor “D.C. Jarvis”<br />

from Vermont in the USA cider vinegar and<br />

honey (CV & H) can be an important part of<br />

a long healthy life. Dr. Jarvis noted Vermonters<br />

who regularly consumed cider vinegar and<br />

honey had excellent health with many putting<br />

in a vigorous day’s work on the farm even<br />

when well into their eighties.<br />

Dr. Jarvis found the effects of cider vinegar<br />

and honey on arthritis can be remarkable<br />

with many patients reporting almost total<br />

relief after taking a course of the cider vinegar<br />

and honey. Dr. Jarvis surmised that the acid<br />

and potassium in cider vinegar counteracted<br />

calcium deposits and helped the body control<br />

calcium use.<br />

As well as a general tonic Dr. Jarvis found<br />

regular administration of cider vinegar and<br />

honey at the onset of complaints such<br />

as the common cold, sinusitis,<br />

asthmatic attacks, hay fever,<br />

and childhood diseases<br />

such as chicken pox<br />

and measles, was<br />

accompanied by<br />

an improvement<br />

in the condition<br />

with symptoms<br />

either disappearing,<br />

or the conditions were<br />

extremely mild and soon<br />

over.<br />

Apple cider vinegar contains all the goodness<br />

of the apple in a form that is readily accepted<br />

by the body. Scientists have found over 90<br />

different substances in ACV, among them 20<br />

important trace elements, minerals, essential<br />

enzymes, a number of different acids including<br />

malic acid, amino acids and roughage in the<br />

form of potash and pectin. A scientific study<br />

at the Shizuka University in Japan has proven<br />

ACV to have potent antioxidant benefits (It can<br />

destroy free radicals, which are a major factor<br />

in ageing.) and also the ACV can break down<br />

cholesterol formations in the blood vessels.<br />

ACV and H is a powerful tonic that also<br />

promotes digestion, assimilation of nutrients<br />

and elimination of waste, and helps neutralize<br />

any toxic substances that enter the body.<br />

It is important to note not all cider vinegar<br />

is made in the traditional way and results are<br />

likely to prove disappointing with these other<br />

vinegars.<br />

deficient?<br />

Minerals are the building blocks of<br />

good health. Some minerals are only<br />

needed in trace amounts where others<br />

like magnesium are needed in much<br />

larger amounts and on a regular basis to<br />

prevent deficiency and maintain optimum<br />

health. A large number of us do not<br />

obtain sufficient magnesium from our<br />

diet and may notice some of the common<br />

signs of deficiency. Some of the more<br />

common symptoms that may be caused by<br />

insufficient magnesium are: leg and muscle<br />

cramps, twitches, muscle pain, muscle<br />

fatigue and weakness, tremors of hands,<br />

blurred vision, restlessness, poor sleep,<br />

raised and/or unstable blood pressure,<br />

poor circulation, irregular heartbeat,<br />

shortness of breath, swallowing problems,<br />

dizziness, headaches, anxiety, agitation,<br />

irritability, seizures, poor concentration<br />

and many more.<br />

Although many young people now show<br />

signs of magnesium deficiency symptoms<br />

generally worsen as we age due to our<br />

digestive system being less efficient. Taking<br />

a magnesium supplement of sufficient<br />

strength may be a sensible option to top<br />

Numerous HealtH Problems may be a magNesium DeficieNcy!<br />

Some of the common symptoms can be:<br />

- Leg cramps<br />

- Leg pain<br />

- Twitches<br />

- Tremors of hands<br />

- Restlessness<br />

HEALTH & BEAUTY<br />

SOUTHERN VIEW<br />

Be health smart<br />

this winter<br />

HaNDS arE the main pathways of germ<br />

transmission. Hand hygiene is therefore<br />

the most important measure to avoid the<br />

transmission of harmful germs.<br />

Wash your hands, before & after food<br />

preparation and eating, if you borrow<br />

someone elses equipment and of course<br />

after blowing your nose. For convenience<br />

it is a good idea to have hand sanitiser on<br />

hand to use in between washing.<br />

Sneezing & coughing into the crook<br />

of your arm or tissues rather than your<br />

hand, reduces the spread of airborne<br />

bugs. remove tissues to the rubbish<br />

immediately.<br />

Keep hydrated, two thirds of your body<br />

is made of water, so keeping hydrated<br />

is one of the most important things you<br />

can do for your health. Dehydration<br />

symptoms range from headaches to<br />

nausea to fatigue, but the effects of<br />

dehydration on your immune system are<br />

not always as obvious. Staying hydrated<br />

keeps the mucus membranes moist, which<br />

keeps the immune system functioning<br />

optimally. Unfortunately, lattes and wine<br />

don’t count, but upping your intake of<br />

water is incredibly beneficial. aim to<br />

drink at least eight glasses of water a day.<br />

You’ll notice the difference!<br />

Eat in season, poor nutrition impairs<br />

the immune response. Fresh vegetables,<br />

fruits, nuts, grains and legumes or pulses<br />

are full of immune-boosting properties<br />

and antioxidants. Nature provides fresh<br />

seasonal foods to compensate for what<br />

our bodies are lacking at that time of<br />

year. Kiwifruit & citrus fruits that are in<br />

season throughout winter are packed with<br />

Vitamin C.<br />

Stress less, although short periods of<br />

stress can actually be good for us longterm<br />

chronic stress lowers our immunity,<br />

making us more susceptible to colds and<br />

flu. We all have our own ways of coping<br />

and reducing stress so whether it’s taking<br />

a bath, going to the gym, getting outdoors<br />

in the garden or having fun with the kids,<br />

do something to unwind. Not only are<br />

you doing your adrenal glands a favour,<br />

you’re also reducing your chances of being<br />

struck down by the latest virus.<br />

Get a good night’s sleep, sleep is<br />

essential for your body to rest, repair and<br />

rejuvenate. (Don’t you find you always<br />

tend to look your best after a good night’s<br />

sleep?) The human growth hormone<br />

that’s released during sleep helps repair<br />

your body at a cellular level, but it’s<br />

also beneficial for the immune system.<br />

Interrupted sleep (or just not enough of<br />

it) significantly reduces the effectiveness<br />

of your immune system, particularly the<br />

natural killer cells, which is your body’s<br />

first line of defence against germs.<br />

FLAME FILES<br />

Seal pup gets short shrift<br />

• By Mark Thomas –<br />

specialist fire investigator<br />

IT WAS going to be the<br />

mother of all storms<br />

apparently.<br />

It turns out it wasn’t.<br />

At least not in the city.<br />

But it was bitterly cold,<br />

some snow fell and on the<br />

hills it managed to settle.<br />

I’m sure the weather did<br />

have some effect, however,<br />

with 16 motor accidents<br />

attended by our crews in<br />

the week.<br />

We did have the odd other<br />

call that could have been<br />

attributed to the weather.<br />

Although the incident<br />

attended by Harewood<br />

and Addington crews in<br />

Hornby last Friday had its<br />

origin in ignorance rather<br />

than iciness.<br />

A fire was lit in the<br />

fireplace by a shivering<br />

occupant.<br />

It’s just that this was a<br />

house damaged back in the<br />

earthquakes and the chimney<br />

had been removed.<br />

The result was quite<br />

fortunate really, with<br />

smoke filling the ceiling<br />

and then the house itself.<br />

Fortunate because that<br />

smoke was all that happened.<br />

PLAYFUL: This seal pup was escorted from<br />

Fitzgerald Ave by the city’s red watch fire crew.<br />

Could easily have<br />

resulted in the loss of the<br />

home.<br />

We go to any number of<br />

false alarms at buildings<br />

with smoke detectors.<br />

Some are from accidental<br />

causes, where smoke<br />

from cooking or dust from<br />

workmen sanding, set the<br />

alarms off.<br />

Last Thursday’s call to<br />

the Riccarton Clinic was a<br />

bit different.<br />

A plaster cast was being<br />

cut off a patient.<br />

Seems the plaster dust<br />

was enough to activate the<br />

alarm.<br />

Result was a full evacuation.<br />

Finally, the retrieval of<br />

a seal pup from Fitzgerald<br />

Ave and its return to the<br />

Avon was accomplished<br />

by the city’s red watch fire<br />

crew on Wednesday.<br />

Hope Mum was about.<br />

Ensuring a safe work place<br />

LEArning firST aid is not only a<br />

part of ensuring a safe work place, but also<br />

an integral part of our engagement with<br />

the wider community. We all learn the<br />

necessary skills to ensure that in times of<br />

emergency we are able to assist our work<br />

colleagues, but are we able to take these<br />

skills home, into the community or on to<br />

the sports field?<br />

not all work places are the same and<br />

the injury risk for each place can be<br />

wide and variable. The office attended by<br />

administrators does not carry the same<br />

risk as those people working with heavy<br />

machinery, or perhaps at some distance<br />

from a regular ambulance service. it is<br />

therefore essential that you pick the right<br />

first aid course to suit all of your activities<br />

– both professional and social.<br />

Take, for example, an office worker who<br />

does not have a high risk work environment<br />

and whose concern might be to ensure<br />

that they can deal with minor cuts and<br />

superficial injuries, or the ability to perform<br />

effective CPr. These skills can be achieved<br />

on a course of eight hours duration and<br />

would generally fit into low to medium<br />

risk area. But take this same person on to<br />

a sports field either as a spectator or player<br />

when a higher level injury occurs. The<br />

eight hour course covering unit standards<br />

6402 and 6401 (or 26551 and 26552) does<br />

not cover head neck and spinal injuries,<br />

eye injuries, hypothermia and poisonings.<br />

The majority of injuries occur outside of<br />

the work place, in fact one in three injuries<br />

occurs in the home, making it the most<br />

common place for injuries to happen.<br />

new Zealand children are twice as likely<br />

to die through injury as children who live<br />

in Australia. They mostly die as a result<br />

of motor vehicles accidents or falls in the<br />

home. fatalities from leisure and sport are<br />

not far behind those in the workplace.<br />

The wider 12 hour course teaches the<br />

additional unit standard 6400 and provides<br />

a wide knowledge base for medium to high<br />

risk environments. This course covers<br />

many of the skills required to deal with<br />

the most common injuries, such as falls<br />

(which can result in head, neck and spinal<br />

injuries) and dealing with complex scenes<br />

such as motor vehicle accidents.<br />

if you are not sure on the course best<br />

suited to your needs, ask your accredited<br />

first aid training provider. They can explain<br />

the course content and give you options<br />

that will best suit your needs. Look beyond<br />

the workplace and consider your family<br />

and your location. Check that you have a<br />

good quality first aid kit that is up-to-date<br />

with replenished items, and that everyone<br />

knows where it is located.<br />

CONTINUING EDUCATION<br />

Risingholme Community<br />

Centre Term 3<br />

Term 3 sees us continuing to offer a range<br />

of classes across the city at Risingholme<br />

Community Centre, Riccarton High<br />

School, Shirley Boys High School,<br />

Christchurch Girls High School and<br />

Hornby High School, many of which<br />

have become a tradition of Risingholme<br />

Community Centre programme. So as we<br />

settle into the winter months a great way<br />

to lift the winter spirits, is to enrol in a<br />

course of interest – maybe something that<br />

you have tried before and want to explore<br />

further or perhaps you would like to try<br />

something new.<br />

It has been proven that Lifelong Learning<br />

has many benefits with the obvious ones<br />

being the continuation of a learning<br />

journey, learning a new skill, increased<br />

confidence, meeting new people and much<br />

more. Our full range of classes can be<br />

viewed on our website www.risingholme.<br />

org.nz<br />

Is English your second Language? In<br />

term 3 we have ESOL classes including<br />

IELTS running at Risingholme Community<br />

Centre, Riccarton High School and Shirley<br />

Boys. Other Language classes include,<br />

German, Spanish, Italian, Russian, Arabic,<br />

NZ Sign and Te Reo. So if you would like to<br />

improve your English or learn a new<br />

language you can enrol via our website<br />

www.risingholme.org.nz or phone the<br />

Risingholme office 332 7359<br />

New and exciting at Risingholme<br />

Community Centre is Zentangle.<br />

What is this you might say - well if<br />

you can’t sit still enough for yoga, or<br />

your mind wanders in meditation,<br />

or you would like a creative aspect to<br />

your mindfulness, this may work for<br />

you. This method of drawing does not<br />

require any previous drawing ability,<br />

it can be a 15 minute practice you can<br />

build into your everyday, or you can<br />

explore some of the more creative ways<br />

you can then use this design practise<br />

to make your own cards, images, or<br />

decorate products. This class will teach<br />

you a variety of ‘tangles’ and get you started<br />

on your Zentangle path in a supportive and<br />

creative atmosphere, and you can build it<br />

at a pace that suits you, within your time<br />

constraints or desire as you move through<br />

the term.<br />

these classes or others on our website<br />

HOME & HEATING<br />

Get rid of dampness<br />

in your house<br />

Now wITH the colder and wetter weather<br />

on its way, home owners are focusing on<br />

ways to make their homes comfortable, warm<br />

and healthy for their families throughout<br />

winter. RISING dAmp is an issue that affects<br />

many of our older properties which suffer<br />

from poor, or no, insulation. In Canterbury<br />

especially, post-quake, many people have<br />

relocated to homes that suffer from rising<br />

damp which can be associated with health<br />

problems. Independent tests have shown<br />

that up to 40 litres of water can rise from the<br />

ground and enter a house every day, leading<br />

to mildew, mould, condensation and musty<br />

smells. moulds can produce various allergic<br />

reactions and the frail, elderly and very young<br />

are especially vulnerable.<br />

Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd is a<br />

locally owned and operated firm. The team<br />

understands the problems caused by rising<br />

damp and are there to help. They will come<br />

to your damp home and pump a lightweight,<br />

flowable foam concrete under your timber<br />

floored home. Specially adapted for our<br />

New Zealand conditions and applications<br />

it provides a layer of protection against<br />

rising moisture. An unexpected benefit that<br />

the team at Canterbury Foam Concrete<br />

have noticed recently, is that many owners<br />

of properties which had underfloor foam<br />

concrete installed, reported that it also<br />

provided protection against liquefaction after<br />

the earthquakes.<br />

ventilation needs. Phone 03 376 4608 or<br />

Balanced Pressure vs Positive Pressure<br />

Under the New Zealand Building Code,<br />

all buildings, including residential, need to<br />

be suitably ventilated, either with opening<br />

windows or forced ventilation. Clause G4.1<br />

states: “The objective of this provision is<br />

to safeguard people from illness or loss of<br />

amenity due to lack of fresh air.” There are<br />

many benefits to forced, or mechanical,<br />

ventilation over opening windows, including<br />

warmth, security, reduction of outside noises<br />

and reduction of condensation.<br />

Traditional domestic ventilation systems<br />

are ‘positive pressure’. They bring air in from<br />

outside via the roof space and force the stale air<br />

out through gaps around windows and doors.<br />

The incoming air from these<br />

systems has to be heated or<br />

cooled to keep the house warm<br />

in winter or cool in summer.<br />

The Smooth-Air HEX390 is<br />

a ‘balanced pressure’ system. It<br />

extracts air from the house and<br />

at the same time brings in fresh<br />

air. These two streams of air<br />

pass through a heat exchanger,<br />

which warms incoming air in<br />

winter and cools in summer if<br />

air conditioning is being used.<br />

This means that up to 80% of<br />

the energy which would be<br />

Balanced<br />

Pressure<br />

Ventilation<br />

wasted using a traditional positive pressure<br />

system is recovered, resulting in significant<br />

energy savings and therefore lower heating or<br />

cooling costs.<br />

Until recently, balanced pressure ventilation<br />

systems have been considerably more<br />

expensive than traditional positive pressure<br />

systems. However, with Smooth-Air’s unique<br />

manufacturing capabilities, a HEX390<br />

balanced pressure system can be installed for<br />

a similar price as a traditional positive pressure<br />

system.<br />

Ready for<br />

something<br />

new?<br />

We’re celebrating breaking the mould<br />

of traditional retirement living!


Put the date<br />

in your diary now!<br />

Thursday 20 <strong>July</strong><br />

4pm-6pm<br />

Living Well Park Lane<br />

Apartments Launch<br />

35 Whiteleigh Ave, Tower<br />

Junction, Christchurch.<br />

Come along and enjoy bubbles,<br />

canapés and a presentation<br />

with special guests in this<br />

very unique retirement<br />

community!<br />

Welcome to the public launch and<br />

You’re invited to this very special event<br />

Inspired by the international Living<br />

Building Challenge principles, we have<br />

created a retirement development<br />

that is regenerative both for the local<br />

community and the local environment.<br />

Arvida has partnered with leading<br />

architects Jasmax to create a living<br />

environment designed to help<br />

residents remain engaged with the<br />

greater community and be truly part<br />

of things. So rather than a closed<br />

and gated village, we’ve designed<br />

an open one. And rather than taking<br />

charge of everything, we’re providing<br />

opportunities to support, grow, cook,<br />

bake and even help run things. From<br />

creating produce for our on-site café<br />

and market days, to caring for the<br />

gardens, chooks and animals, there<br />

is opportunity here to be involved as<br />

much or as little as you’d like.<br />

We call it the Arvida attitude of living<br />

well, and it’s all about providing you<br />

with choices.<br />

The attitude of living well


presentation of Living Well Park Lane<br />

Our buildings are designed to enhance the way you live<br />

It’s been our mission to create aesthetically<br />

beautiful buildings using the fundamentals<br />

of good architectural design and built from<br />

technologically advanced, natural and locally<br />

sourced materials.<br />

• One, two or three bedroom large luxury<br />

apartments in four floorplans<br />

• Thermally insulated homes with superior<br />

seismic integrity built-in for Christchurch<br />

• Wellness centre and coaches, café, gym,<br />

pool, crèche, chemist and doctors’ rooms<br />

• Fresh produce daily, grown in raised<br />

garden beds and glasshouses<br />

• Kids taking part, learning life skills and<br />

caring for the gardens and animals<br />

• Hassle-free and efficient<br />

transport, with a fleet of<br />

electric and hybrid cars<br />

provided for<br />

residents’ use.<br />

Deans Ave<br />

Living Well Park Lane Apartments Launch<br />

responses and we’re now creating a community where you can<br />

a look at what your future retirement lifestyle could look like.<br />
