Mega season ahead for yacht club<br />
HELPING HAND: Ferrymead Mitre 10 Mega’s Tony Franc with the new mainsails.<br />
• By Sarla Donovan<br />
THE RAIN cleared to sunny<br />
skies and warm north-east<br />
winds, perfect conditions for<br />
Christchurch Yacht Club’s<br />
season opener on Saturday<br />
afternoon.<br />
The formal launch got under<br />
way at noon with an update on<br />
recent developments at the club,<br />
the raising of the club flag, a<br />
glass of champagne and a light<br />
lunch.<br />
Competition followed at 1pm<br />
with about 40 boats racing on<br />
the day.<br />
Six bright orange mainsail sets<br />
donated by Ferrymead Mitre 10<br />
Mega could be spied bobbing out<br />
on the water.<br />
The sails on the club’s optimist<br />
boats, used for learn to sail<br />
classes, were old and worn out so<br />
Mitre 10 offered to replace them,<br />
said club commodore Richard<br />
Ineson.<br />
“These new ones are nice and<br />
bright, good for training. When<br />
the boats go out, they’re easy to<br />
distinguish.”<br />
Numbers at the opening event<br />
were excellent, he said.<br />

After a fall-off in membership<br />
following the earthquakes,<br />
numbers had stabilised and were<br />
now in a growth pattern.<br />
Learn to sail classes start next<br />
week and were full.<br />
The recent success of Team<br />
New Zealand’s campaign had<br />
helped to bring the sport of<br />
yachting back to the forefront.<br />

Riccarton<br />
bus lounge<br />
solution<br />
a work in<br />
progress<br />
• By Emily O’Connell<br />
SOLUTIONS TO ongoing<br />
problems at the Riccarton bus<br />
lounge will drag on for some time<br />
yet.<br />
The lounge, on the corner of<br />
Riccarton Rd and Division St, has<br />
been plagued with youth issues<br />
since it opened in December 2015.<br />
It was revealed last week that<br />
a number of recommendations<br />
from a working party were to be<br />
discussed at the Halswell-Hornby-<br />
Riccarton Community Board<br />
meeting on Tuesday night –<br />
including more police presence in<br />
the area.<br />
The working party consisting<br />
of board members, business and<br />
landowners, police, community<br />
groups and residents’ association<br />
representatives have made recommendations,<br />
which the Halswell-<br />
Hornby-Riccarton Community<br />
Board received at its meeting last<br />
week.<br />
Three recommendations were<br />
approved by the community<br />
board and will go to the city<br />
council for further discussion.<br />
These are an additional police<br />
presence, a bylaw which would<br />
allow arrests and instant fines to be<br />
issued and continued assistance for<br />
business owners when removing<br />
graffiti. •Turn to page 5<br />

WHAT AN election it’s going to be<br />
on Saturday night.<br />
The best and potentially the closest<br />
in many years, and one which<br />
will shape the country’s future for<br />
sometime.<br />
Star Media, publisher of the<br />
<strong>Southern</strong> <strong>View</strong>, will be following<br />
the election on our website www.<br />
star.kiwi and we’ll have reporters<br />
out on the street and bringing<br />
you latest updates through the<br />
afternoon and into the night.<br />
The Star on Thursday will also<br />
have an in-depth election preview.<br />
The polls clearly show people<br />
have shifted to voting for either National<br />
and Labour and this could<br />
spell doom for many smaller party<br />
politicians who have made it into<br />
Parliament on the back of MMP.<br />
Indications are voter turnout<br />
will be high and which ever party<br />
mobilises its supporters best on<br />
Saturday will win.<br />

Lights ease congestion<br />
Fashion<br />
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />
NEW TRAFFIC lights Halswell Junction Rd have<br />
been given the thumbs up by<br />
Prebbleton residents who now<br />
say getting into work is quicker.<br />
The signals designed to ease<br />
the congestion at the Halswell<br />
Gardening<br />
Junction and Springs Rds<br />
roundabout were switched on<br />
last Thursday morning.<br />
Resident Karen Webb said the<br />
lights have cut down her commute<br />
by about half the time.<br />
“It is certainly an improvement<br />
until Rolleston traffic finds<br />
out about it and stops using<br />
Shands Rd and it will be back to<br />
Motoring<br />
normal,” she said.<br />
Another Prebbleton resident<br />
Graham Pye said the new traffic<br />
signals have improved traffic<br />
congestion considerably.<br />
“Funny enough there seems<br />
to be more traffic coming across<br />
Springs Rd. That seems to be<br />
holding up Halswell Junction<br />
Rd traffic . . . they might need<br />
Tasty<br />
to tweak timings on Halswell<br />
Bites<br />
Junction Rd,” he said.<br />
NZ Transport Agency journey<br />
manager Lee Wright said NZTA<br />
will be monitoring the lights<br />
every day over the next couple of<br />
HELPFUL: New lights switched on at the Halswell Junction<br />
and Springs Rds roundabout.<br />
weeks and getting feedback from<br />
customers and road users on the<br />
lights.<br />
A Prebbleton resident herself,<br />
Ms Wright said she left work<br />
15min later than usual and got<br />
through the intersection in<br />
about 5min.<br />
PHOTO: GILBERT WEALLEANS <br />
Until now traffic has been<br />
backed up from the roundabout<br />
to close to the Prebbleton shops.<br />
Prebbleton Community Association<br />
Committee chairman<br />
Peter Hunter said anything to<br />
improve traffic time through the<br />
intersection is a bonus.<br />
The $150,000 project was<br />
designed to reduce delays for<br />
people and bus passengers<br />
on Springs Rd heading to<br />
Christchurch by about 8min,<br />
while the Christchurch <strong>Southern</strong><br />
Motorway Stage 2 is under<br />
construction.<br />
Often traffic is backed up for<br />
more than 2km while people<br />
wait for a safe gap to enter the<br />
roundabout.<br />
HAVE YOUR SAY: Are the<br />
new traffic lights at Halswell<br />
Junction and the Springs<br />
Rds roundabout working?<br />

Girl Guides and Soroptimists<br />
joined forces to clean up a<br />
Cashmere reserve.<br />
Seven members of Sorop-<br />

their leaders carried out four<br />
hours’ “Saturday of Service” at<br />
Farnley Reserve on Centaurus<br />

“Everyone worked very hard<br />
and at the end of the day 60<br />
bags of rubbish were collected<br />
along with a large pile of tree<br />
branches and debris,” Soroptimist<br />
president Yvonne Flitcroft<br />
said.<br />
She said it was very satisfying<br />
to see the end result as the area<br />
is frequently used by walkers,<br />
joggers, dog walkers and<br />
cyclists.<br />
“Residents behind the reserve<br />
were very appreciative of the<br />
effort made and one resident,<br />
Mark, assisted us with the rubbish<br />
collection for a couple of<br />
hours,” Mrs Flitcroft said.<br />

THE HISTORY of Calder Green<br />
Reserve is now on display for all<br />
to see.<br />
A new sign explaining the significance<br />
of the lower Heathcote<br />

Formerly known as ‘Devils<br />

a salt marsh and riparian area<br />
lying between Ferry and Tunnel<br />
Rds.<br />
Forest and Bird maintains the<br />
area with input from the city<br />
council and community groups.<br />
Heathcote ward city councillor<br />
Sara Templeton was at the<br />
official opening of the project.<br />
Her daughter has been<br />
involved through her local<br />
guide group, which has planted<br />
swathes of ngaio over the past<br />
few years.<br />
She complimented Forest and<br />
Bird on the work done so far.<br />
“I’m looking forward to all<br />
the groups working together on<br />
a range of challenges including<br />
educating dog owners and the<br />
wider public about the native<br />
wildlife present in the area and<br />
how to protect it.”<br />
Mick Ingram the volunteer<br />
manager of the Calder Green<br />
Reserve project is designing<br />
habitat to suit all the wildlife<br />
of the area and has a particular<br />

soft-spot for lizards.<br />
He’s hopeful that as people<br />
visit the reserve and learn more<br />
about the area, “they will come<br />
to love its quiet serenity as I do.”<br />
“The hope is more people will<br />
become kaitiaki (caretakers) of<br />
this stretch of river and help its<br />
wildlife thrive into the future,”<br />
Mr Ingram said.<br />

New traps and bait to help<br />
pupils step up conservation<br />
n TRAPS AND bait worth about<br />
$8000 will help reduce rat,<br />
possum and stoat populations<br />
on Banks Peninsula.<br />
The Little River Trap Library<br />
and Lyttleton Primary School<br />
have been given more than 50<br />
traps by the Department of<br />
Conservation.<br />
ning<br />
Conservation Minister<br />
Maggie Barry and Associate<br />
Conservation Minister Nicky<br />
Wagner presented the traps at<br />
a Predator Free 2050 event last<br />
week.<br />
Lyttelton Primary School<br />
received 15 traps, including five<br />
possum traps from the Lyttelton<br />
Port Company.<br />
ing<br />
The school plans to start<br />
trapping on land above the<br />
township that’s owned by LPC.<br />
Said Ms Barry: “The easyto-use<br />
traps will enable the<br />
school children to take their<br />
conservation work to the next<br />
level.”<br />
The Little River Trap Library<br />
was the first of its kind in New<br />
ites<br />
Zealand and lends traps for free<br />
to people wanting to protect<br />
wildlife on their properties<br />
It was given 40 traps and bait,<br />
CONSERVATION: Lyttelton Primary School pupils Maia, Rose,<br />
Zoey and Ridley with some of the traps they received from<br />
DOC and the Lyttelton Port Company.<br />
enabling it to continue its work.<br />
Ms Barry said the two projects<br />
were examples of “collaboration<br />
and tireless dedication,” helping<br />
to eradicate predators and create<br />
pockets of safe habitat.<br />
Ms Wagner said there were<br />
signs the programme was already<br />
having an impact.<br />
“Tui are beginning to prosper<br />
on the peninsula and the whiteflippered<br />
penguin colony in Flea<br />
Bay/Pohatu has doubled in size<br />
since this work began,”<br />
“Eventually I believe these<br />
predator-free areas will expand<br />
to cover the whole of Lyttelton,<br />
Banks Peninsula, wider<br />
Christchurch and beyond. I’m<br />
confident that by 2050 we’ll have<br />
a rat, stoat and possum-free New<br />
Zealand,” Ms Wagner said.<br />

Bus lounge problems<br />
•From page 1<br />
The other 16 recommendations<br />
will come back to the community<br />
board for discussion in a month’s<br />
Fashion<br />
Local businesses have declined<br />
time.<br />
to comment on the issue but<br />
community board deputy chairwoman<br />
Helen Broughton said the<br />
situation is not ideal.<br />
“It’s quite hard to pass a lot<br />
of recommendations at a board<br />
meeting. My guess is we will have<br />
a workshop on them first,” Mrs<br />
Gardening<br />
Broughton said.<br />
Community board chairman<br />
Mike Mora said he thinks the<br />
community board is doing its<br />
best.<br />
“We’re going as quick as we<br />
can. There are laws in place now<br />
if somebody breaches trespass<br />
orders the police are contacted,”<br />
Mr Mora said.<br />
Motoring<br />
No police were at the community<br />
board meeting but Constable<br />
Aaron Thorn said “the city council<br />
talks about trespassing, they<br />
seem to think we have the power<br />
to trespass anyone from anywhere<br />
but we can only trespass<br />
people from a private area.”<br />
“They seem to think we have<br />
Tasty Bites<br />

BUS: Solutions to the ongoing<br />
problems at the Riccarton bus<br />
lounge are being discussed.<br />
Act. And there is one but the<br />
problem is we have to prove the<br />
person is about to commit an<br />
offence which can be quite difficult,”<br />
Constable Thorn said.<br />
Removing WiFi is not going<br />
to be solution to the anti-social<br />
behaviour.<br />
The community board has<br />
taken away the word ‘removing’<br />
and replaced it with ‘using’ in the<br />
WiFi recommendation.<br />
The amended recommendation<br />
reads – The Halswell-Hornby-<br />
Riccarton Community Board<br />
request staff to report back to the<br />
board on the viability and implications<br />
of using the free WiFi<br />
from the Riccarton bus lounge.<br />
City councillor Vicki Buck<br />
said the wording needed to be<br />
changed because the city council<br />
is trying to extend WiFi connections<br />
in central<br />
city. “Installing WiFi along Riccarton<br />
Rd is a good idea. WiFi<br />
is a basic thing now. It should<br />
be on buses. I’m not in favour of<br />
removing access to the internet,”<br />

WWE superfans<br />
meet wrestling idol<br />
n<br />
• By Julia Evans<br />
ZEINAT ALEBEL almost broke<br />
down in tears when she met her<br />
WWE professional wrestling<br />
idol, Dean Ambrose.<br />
The 18-year-old Sockburn<br />
resident would describe herself<br />
as a wrestling super fan.<br />
ning<br />
Which was proved after she<br />
and her sister Sofiya, 14, lined<br />
up from 7am at The Hub Hornby<br />
for the chance to meet Raw<br />
tag team champion, Ambrose.<br />
“My heart is racing,” she said.<br />
Zeinat got Ambrose to sign<br />
her<br />
ng<br />
cellphone, which she said<br />
was now one of her favourite<br />
possessions.<br />
After the 3pm meet and greet,<br />
the teens went to WWE Live at<br />
Horncastle Arena – the only live<br />
wrestling event in the country.<br />
Zeinat said seeing WWE Live<br />
was seven years in the making.<br />
“Last time we saw them I was<br />
11 and<br />
ites<br />
Sofiya was 7.”<br />
But she said they’d both been<br />
watching on television for as<br />
long as they can remember, if<br />
not longer.<br />
“I’ve been watching since<br />
<strong>19</strong>99 and I was born in <strong>19</strong>99,”<br />

Zeinat said.<br />
She, along with almost 300<br />
other fans, lined up from 7am to<br />
get the wrist bands that would<br />
see them meet Ambrose later in<br />
the day and get his signature.<br />
Zeinat said she and Sofiya<br />
went to The Hub early for the<br />
meet and greet.<br />
“It was so worth it,” she said.<br />

ARTIST RUBY Williams<br />
stood on the workshop floor of<br />
ENI Engineering in Halswell’s<br />
industrial outskirts.<br />
It might not seem like a place<br />
for creating art but the 15-yearold<br />
Villa Maria College student<br />
couldn’t wipe the smile off her<br />
face.<br />
Ruby saw the sculpture she<br />
designed as part of the SCAPE<br />
Public Art season for the first<br />
time.<br />
“It’s perfect. It’s exactly what I<br />
had in mind. Absolutely perfect,”<br />
she said.<br />
The mammoth steel branch,<br />
which will be fixed to a tree in<br />
Hagley Park, was shaped by ENI<br />
engineer Paul Bacon.<br />
It’s not something he gets to do<br />
very often.<br />
Ruby picked out the “pinkypurple”<br />
shade it will be painted,<br />

steel sculpture<br />

Student branching out to<br />
become successful artist<br />
saying it represented her personality.<br />
Ruby’s mum Breda said her<br />
“budding artist” had been waiting<br />
eagerly to see the sculpture<br />
all day. She was “so, so proud” of<br />
her daughter.<br />
Ruby won the chance to see<br />
her sketches come to life after<br />
winning the senior section of the<br />
Re:ACTIVATE project.<br />
“I don’t know how to explain<br />
how it feels. It’s just really, really<br />
cool to finally see it,” Ruby said.<br />
The branch will be on display<br />
for six weeks during the public<br />
art season from October 7.<br />
It will even feature as a stop<br />
on the public walk, which takes<br />
people on a tour of all the public<br />
art in the city.<br />
The teen said seeing the<br />
branch had given her the drive<br />
to keep chasing her creative<br />
dreams.<br />
“Now is the moment we’ve been<br />
waiting for. It’s time. This is our<br />
opportunity to build a better, fairer<br />
future for New Zealand. To fix our<br />
healthcare, grow our economy,<br />
respect our environment and to look<br />
after our towns as much as our cities.<br />
It’s time to change things for the<br />
better. I’m ready. We’re ready.”<br />

As your local Member of Parliament, I listen to<br />

Don’t fight fire unless<br />
you’re sure to succeed<br />
ashion<br />
• By Mark Thomas – specialist fire<br />
investigator<br />
I WENT to the fire on Clifton<br />
Hill, in Sumner, which recently<br />
destroyed most of a home.<br />
There were a few things there<br />
Gardening<br />
that are worth mentioning.<br />
Firstly, the occupants were in<br />
an unfamiliar house and once<br />
smoke began to restrict visibility<br />
it was fortunate that one of the<br />
group had familiarised himself<br />
with the route to the back door<br />
and was able to herd most of his<br />
family in the right direction.<br />
Secondly, and knowing hu-<br />
otoring<br />
man nature, understandably, the<br />
group leader tried to put the fire<br />
out.<br />
It was too advanced at this<br />
stage and all he managed was to<br />
receive very painful burns.<br />
He only evacuated the house<br />
when the smoke was too thick to<br />
breathe.<br />
He very nearly didn’t make it.<br />
asty Bites<br />
I was asked later by media how<br />
the fire grew so large so quickly.<br />
There was nothing unusual<br />
about the fire growth here.<br />
GUTTED: This three-storey house will have to be demolished<br />
after a fire ripped through it. PHOTO: GEOFF SLOAN <br />
Modern furniture, made<br />
of plastics, foams and nylon,<br />
provides a huge reserve of fuel,<br />
allowing much faster fire growth<br />
than was normal 50 years ago.<br />
Using the word fuel is very<br />
appropriate because all of those<br />
materials originate in oil. And<br />
burn accordingly.<br />
Anywhere you stay, home, motel,<br />
cabin or hotel room, ensure<br />
there is smoke detection.<br />
If there’s heavy smoke the<br />
cleanest air will be at the lowest<br />
point.<br />
Get down, get low and get out.<br />
Don’t try to fight the fire unless<br />
you’re absolutely sure you will<br />
succeed.<br />
Get out, get your family out,<br />
shut doors as you leave and<br />
phone 111 from a safe place.<br />

Halswell, recent<br />
changes<br />

and its<br />
future<br />
WE ALL know that<br />
Halswell, towns and suburbs around<br />
Christchurch’s west will keep growing.<br />
So, we have to work out how to get people<br />
from where they live to where they work.<br />
I’ve recently done some counting at<br />
the Lincoln Rd and Whiteleigh Ave<br />
intersection in the morning rush hour.<br />
People on bicycles make up nine per cent<br />
of the traffic entering Addington village,<br />
Gardening commutes. Doubling the frequency of the<br />
and 11 per cent are on the bus. The rest of buses from 15 minutes to seven to eight<br />
us are in cars, and 80 per cent have just<br />
the driver.<br />
There are two ways of approaching this<br />
problem. First, the big solution. Forget<br />
the new motorway; people I know in<br />
Rolleston are eagerly awaiting it so they<br />
can zoom<br />
otoring<br />
into the central city, so the motorway<br />
won’t help. How about light rail<br />
(i.e. a modern-day tram) along Halswell<br />

spoken to are enthusiastic because it<br />
would enhance their community.<br />
Alternatively, there could be lots of little<br />
solutions. Did you know that secondary<br />
school principals will no longer take<br />
out of zone students? This will cut down<br />
the hauling that happens every school<br />
day. Then, there is continuing to grow<br />
the city’s cycleway network, and e-bikes<br />
may get to be really important for longer<br />
minutes would help too, but this starts to<br />
look like a convoy.<br />
What about car sharing? Sadly, people<br />
these days often don’t know their neighbours<br />
so they are hardly likely to share<br />
a car with a person living blocks away.<br />
Applying a levy on sole occupancy cars<br />
at rush hour might encourage this sort of<br />
chumminess, but does city council have<br />
the political will?<br />
So, we are left with politically difficult<br />
alternatives. Pay for light rail, or charge<br />
single occupancy vehicles. Personally, I<br />

Spreydon fighter takes out<br />
national title, memorial belt<br />
• By Andrew King<br />
SUNNY TEKI-CLARK from<br />
Bells Boxing Gym was crowned<br />
New Zealand champion in the<br />
under-81kg elite category last<br />
week and took home The George<br />
Bush Memorial belt.<br />
The New Zealand Boxing<br />
Championships were held in<br />
Rotorua from Monday to Friday<br />
last week and attracted the best<br />
the country had to offer.<br />
Teki-Clark, who fights out of<br />
the Spreydon club, said he was<br />
pleased with his win, but said<br />
there is always room for improvement.<br />
“You can always improve, I<br />
could have kept my hands up in<br />
the third round. It’s great to be<br />
able to put on the red and black<br />
and fight for Canterbury,” he<br />
said.<br />
Woolston Boxing Club’s Hamuera<br />
Tainui received a silver<br />
medal in the under-57kg category<br />
in an all-Canterbury affair<br />
against Daniel Meehan, 14, of the<br />
Smiling Tigers Boxing Club.<br />
It was a split decision loss for<br />
Tainuiwho landed some great<br />
shots, according to his coach and<br />
Canterbury Boxing Association<br />
team manager Holly Sullivan.<br />
“He has a few things to work on<br />
but great first time at nationals<br />
against a tough competitor,” she<br />
said. Tainui said he was pretty<br />
sore after the bout.<br />
“I left everything out there so I<br />
feel good,” he said.<br />
Sullivan said it was one of the<br />
“greenest” teams they have taken<br />
to the national championships, in<br />
spite of being awarded the Malcolm<br />
Treston Shield for the most<br />
wins at the competition.<br />

THE traditional Cashmere High<br />
leavers v senior rugby match<br />
was played on Wednesday with<br />
the seniors taking the bragging<br />
rights 35-0.<br />
The game is an annual fixture<br />
and a good opportunity for the<br />
leaving students to have one last<br />
hit-out in the college colours.<br />
A school spokesperson said<br />
SPORTS<br />
FRIENDLY: The seniors took the bragging rights in the annual<br />
rugby match against the leavers on Wednesday.<br />
Cashmere High seniors<br />
too strong in final hit-out<br />
there was “more pre-match chat<br />
and hype than an All Blacks<br />
game” but the seniors were<br />
too strong for their departing<br />
counterparts.<br />
“It was great to see quite a few<br />
non-rugby players stepping up<br />
for both teams.<br />
“Well done to all players<br />
and water boys involved in the<br />
game.”<br />
A better deAl<br />
for future<br />
generAtions<br />
i’m campaigning on:<br />
• Drug reform<br />
• Replacing 1080 poison with<br />
Opposum farming<br />
• Increased job opportunities<br />

Firstly crumb the eggplant. Dip<br />
into seasoned egg, then roll into<br />
the breadcrumbs and parsley<br />
combined in another bowl. Set<br />
aside in the fridge until ready to<br />
cook.<br />
Into a frying pan pour a little<br />
oil. Fry the eggplant on a medium<br />
heat to ensure they cook<br />
right through, turning once to<br />

1 Tbsp Olive oil<br />
Directions<br />
Season schnitzel with salt<br />
and pepper and lay on a work<br />
surface. Arrange two slices of<br />
mozzarella on one half of each<br />
schnitzel and top each with a<br />
heaped teaspoon of pesto.<br />
Fold the empty side of each<br />
schnitzel over to cover the filling<br />
and secure by threading<br />
two toothpicks through each<br />

New research on Gingko<br />
Biloba excites researchers!<br />
GO-Advanced<br />
Omega-PC<br />
For decades scientists believed brain<br />
damage with age, after a stroke or injury<br />
was irreversible and brain neurons could<br />
not be repaired. In more recent times, new<br />
research has shown that neurons can grow<br />
back with the right conditions and that a<br />
special extract of Gingko Biloba (EGb-761<br />
or TEBONIN) has been clinically found to<br />
assist in this. The implications for stroke<br />
recovery are obvious, but researchers also<br />
know many of us suffer from undetected<br />
“micro-strokes” that over a period of time<br />
slowly reduce our cognitive function.<br />
TEBONIN is prescribed worldwide as a<br />
natural supportive agent for a healthy brain<br />
and cognitive function. It supports healthy<br />
mental performance, concentration, focus,<br />
alertness, motor function and to help<br />
with many conditions including tinnitus<br />
(ringing and noise in the ears), vertigo<br />
and normal balance. TEBONIN improves<br />
BOOST BRAIN<br />
PERFORMANCE UP TO 30%<br />
TEBONIN is the No 1 Ginkgo Biloba extract in the World with more than 8 million tablets<br />
being consumed every day. It is also the most researched herbal extract with more than 60<br />
controlled clinical studies & over 400 scientific studies. It has been shown to have excellent<br />
efficacy, safety & tolerability. Millions of consumers have trusted TEBONIN for over 30<br />
years to support blood flow, capillary health, brain health & performance.<br />
Studies on TEBONIN Show:<br />
- Improved Brain Performance & Function up to 30%. This includes improvement<br />
in mental sharpness, focus, attention, concentration, understanding, memory & recall.<br />
- Reduces errors made & mental stress.<br />
- The only Ginkgo shown to increase activity in all areas of the brain. Can help restore<br />
brain function after a brain injury such as from a stroke.<br />
- Helps relieve tinnitus (ringing & noise in the ears), vertigo, dizziness & supports normal<br />
balance.<br />
- Improves blood flow to all areas of the body.<br />
- Reduces plaque formation in the blood vessels.<br />
- Protective effect against eyes damage caused by light.<br />
micro-circulation and helps the blood flow<br />
reach those critical places it needs to get to.<br />
It is a potent anti-oxidant and makes the<br />
red blood cells more pliable and capillary<br />
walls more flexible.<br />
TEBONIN is one of the most widely<br />
studied and researched herbal products in<br />
the world and is the only Ginkgo biloba<br />
extract manufactured via a patented multistep<br />
extraction process. Each small tablet<br />
contains a highly concentrated 50:1 extract<br />
to give you a therapeutic clinical dose<br />
without having to take a large amount of<br />
the herb. Of 25 Gingko biloba products on<br />
the market, and tested by a major medical<br />
journal, only TEBONIN passed all five of the<br />
test requirements. Ten brands didn’t meet<br />
any requirements and the rest didn’t pass<br />
more than three out of five requirements.<br />
TEBONIN is the only Gingko biloba<br />
extract shown to activate all areas of the<br />
brain and is considered the gold standard<br />
in Gingko. TEBONIN has been trusted by<br />
millions of consumers worldwide for over<br />
30 years with more than 8,000,000 tablets<br />
consumed each day.<br />

Health BUT are lost in other brands of fish oil due to the less natural manufacturing processes used!<br />
GO-ADVANCED OMEGA-PC SETS NEW STANDARDS IN FISH OIL!<br />
Omega-3 fish oil normally contains the vital Omega-3 fatty acids in a triglyceride form. Fish however naturally<br />

preserves the natural nutrient profile found in fish. Studies show GO OMEGA-PC offers superior absorption with<br />
increased omega-3 fatty acids in organs giving the potential for more health benefits.<br />

It is well known how important omega-3<br />
fatty acids are to good health. It is estimated<br />
most people don’t even get a third of the<br />
recommended omega-3 fatty acids on<br />
a weekly basis. Countries with a higher<br />
amounts of omega-3 in their diet are known<br />
to have lower cardiovascular disease and, in<br />
many cases, better overall health.<br />
Recent research has shown inflammation<br />
to be a big part of disease and the ageing<br />
process.<br />

Fish oil can help reduce inflammation<br />
by providing essential fatty acids required<br />
by the body to heal itself and maintain<br />
good health. Until now most fish oil<br />
only contained omega-3 fatty acids in<br />
triglyceride form. Fish, however, naturally<br />
contain omega-3 in triglyceride and<br />
phospholipid form but until recently the<br />
phospholipid form was lost due to the<br />
manufacturing process.<br />
GO-Advanced Omega-PC sets new<br />
standards in fish oil as it contains<br />
omega-3 attached to both triglycerides<br />
and phospholipids. Studies have shown<br />
GO-Advanced Omega-PC to be far better<br />
absorbed, leading to increased levels of<br />
vital omega-3 fatty acids in the organs<br />
through giving the potential for more<br />
health benefits.<br />
GO-Advanced Omega-PC is produced<br />
from fresh wild deep sea cold water fish<br />
using a new advanced and more natural<br />
cold extraction process that better preserves<br />
the natural nutrient profile found in fish. It<br />
is manufactured to high GMP standards<br />
and is molecularly distilled to remove any<br />
containments, toxins and heavy metals.<br />
Further info on this revolutionary new<br />
fish oil and its benefits is available from<br />

and Medical Herbalist at Marshall’s<br />

children’s feelings of self-worth,<br />
and encouraging tolerance and<br />
understanding of others.<br />
Our teachers all hold a<br />
Diploma of Teaching in Early<br />
Childhood, and one holds a<br />
Diploma of Teaching in Primary<br />
as well as early childhood. She<br />
prepares the four year olds for<br />
school through an informal<br />
and brief daily ‘lesson’ time<br />
which the children love to take<br />
part in.<br />
We have a separate nursery<br />
with an outdoor area where the<br />
children discover and explore.<br />
We are a strong multi-cultural<br />
centre with committed teachers<br />
who embrace and celebrate<br />
diversity for our families.<br />

Kids love CASPA!<br />
A child who’s ‘a<br />
little different’<br />
Children who are just ‘a little different’ – perhaps they’re<br />
clumsy, have difficulty writing or tying shoelaces, or<br />
prone to ‘meltdowns’, and struggle to fit in.<br />
To interpret and function in the world<br />
we need to accurately process information<br />
from our environment.<br />
Some children’s nervous systems<br />
may receive, sort and use information<br />
inaccurately (sensory processing) causing<br />
them to either under or over reaction to<br />
a sensation, or actively seek or avoid a<br />
sensation.<br />
This may cause distress for the<br />
child, family and teachers,<br />
as coping with everyday<br />
experiences like<br />
noisy classrooms,<br />
the feel of fabric,<br />
or moving in a<br />
coordinated way<br />
may present huge<br />
challenges. It can<br />
influence behaviour<br />
and interfere with<br />
learning, doing<br />
everyday activities or<br />
simply fitting in.<br />
No child is the<br />
same, each have<br />
their own individual<br />
difficulties.<br />
Therapy Professionals Therapists<br />
may be able to help improve the life<br />
of these children and those around<br />
them. Contact us at 3775280 or<br />

working parents an affordable after school<br />

Ensuring a safe work place<br />
Learning first aid is not only a part of ensuring a safe<br />
work place, but also an integral part of our engagement with the<br />
wider community. We all learn the necessary skills to ensure that<br />
in times of emergency we are able to assist our work colleagues,<br />
but are we able to take these skills home, into the community or<br />
on to the sports field?<br />
not all work places are the same and the injury risk for each place<br />
can be wide and variable. The office attended by administrators<br />
does not carry the same risk as those people working with heavy<br />
machinery, or perhaps at some distance from a regular ambulance<br />
service. it is therefore essential that you pick the right first aid<br />
course to suit all of your activities – both professional and social.<br />
take, for example, an office worker who does not have a high<br />
risk work environment and whose concern might be to ensure that<br />
they can deal with minor cuts and superficial injuries, or the ability<br />
to perform effective CPr. These skills can be achieved on a course<br />
of eight hours duration and would generally fit into low to medium<br />
risk area. But take this same person on to a sports field either as a<br />
spectator or player when a higher level injury occurs. The eight<br />
hour course covering unit standards 6402 and 6401 (or 26551 and<br />
26552) does not cover head neck and spinal injuries, eye injuries,<br />
hypothermia and poisonings.<br />
The majority of injuries occur outside of the work place, in<br />
fact one in three injuries occurs in the home, making it the most<br />
common place for injuries to happen. new Zealand children<br />
are twice as likely to die through injury as children who live in<br />
australia. They mostly die as a result of motor vehicles accidents<br />
or falls in the home. fatalities from leisure and sport are not far<br />
behind those in the workplace.<br />
The wider 12 hour course teaches the additional unit standard<br />
6400 and provides a wide knowledge base for medium to high risk<br />
environments. This course covers many of the skills required to<br />
deal with the most common injuries, such as falls (which can result<br />
in head, neck and spinal injuries) and dealing with complex scenes<br />
such as motor vehicle accidents.<br />
if you are not sure on the course best suited to your needs, ask<br />
your accredited first aid training provider. They can explain the<br />
course content and give you options that will best suit your needs.<br />
Look beyond the workplace and consider your family and your<br />
location. Check that you have a good quality first aid kit that is<br />
up-to-date with replenished items, and that everyone knows where<br />
it is located.<br />
