Bid to<br />

sporting<br />

facility<br />

zoning<br />

snag<br />

• By Emily O’Connell<br />

A ROAD block, which is in the<br />

way of a Russian businessman’s<br />

plan to expand his Yaldhurst<br />

sporting facility, might be cleared<br />

today.<br />

Canterbury Sports Ltd director<br />

Slava Meyn, who moved to<br />

Christchurch in 2009, built the<br />

Yaldhurst Football Academy two<br />

years ago.<br />

He is now in the process of<br />

planning a bigger complex on the<br />

20ha block of land, which would<br />

include a gymnastics indoor<br />

stadium, swimming pool, sport<br />

courts, and weights area.<br />

But the land he wants to<br />

develop is zoned Open Space<br />

Community Park under the<br />

district plan, which does not<br />

allow for buildings larger than<br />

<strong>10</strong>00 sq m.<br />

Mr Meyn wants the zoning<br />

to be changed to Open Space<br />

Metropolitan Facilities Zone, so<br />

he can progress the development<br />

as planned.<br />

FROM<br />

THE<br />

EDITOR’S<br />

DESK<br />

YOUNG MEN, cars, speed<br />

and alcohol are unfortunately a<br />

perfect mix for tragedy.<br />

It was like that decades ago,<br />

and it still remains today and<br />

will no doubt into the future.<br />

Next week, two people<br />

affected by drink driving and<br />

crashes will talk to students<br />

at Christchurch Boys’ High<br />

School.<br />

One is a young guy who was<br />

the passenger in a car driven by<br />

a drink driver that crashed –<br />

and one a dad who lost his son<br />

to drink driving (see page 5).<br />

How students digest the talk<br />

will inevitably be up to them.<br />

Hopefully, when they are<br />

out at the weekend, they’ll<br />

remember the talk and not<br />

get into a car driven by a mate<br />

who has been drinking, or get<br />

behind the wheel themselves<br />

after having a few.<br />

Red zone trail opening celebration<br />

• By Bridget Rutherford<br />

UP TO 5000 people are expected<br />

to meet in the middle on Sunday<br />

to celebrate the partial opening<br />

of the residential red zone’s first<br />

major project.<br />

The Meet in the Middle event<br />

will be held at Kerrs Reach to<br />

mark the partial completion of<br />

Te Ara Otakaro, a city to sea<br />

transitional trail running alongside<br />

the Avon River.<br />

When complete, the 12km<br />

long trail will run from Barbadoes<br />

St to Pages Rd, and will be<br />

accessible for cyclists, walkers,<br />

joggers and wheelchairs.<br />

WELL<br />

KNOWN:<br />

Singer<br />

Hollie<br />

Smith will<br />

headline<br />

Meet in<br />

the Middle<br />

on Sunday.<br />

Organised by the Avon-Otakaro<br />

Network, Meet in the Middle<br />

will see groups meet at either the<br />

New Brighton Clock Tower or on<br />

the northern bank of the Avon,<br />

opposite the Margaret Mahy<br />

Family Playground, at <strong>10</strong>.30am.<br />

Both groups will then walk or<br />

cycle to meet at Kerrs Reach at<br />

noon for the free event, which<br />

will have live music, food, information<br />

stalls and a regatta.<br />

New Zealand soul singer Hollie<br />

Smith will headline the live<br />

music. Folk band The Eastern’s<br />

Adam McGrath will also play.<br />

Canterbury and Union Rowing<br />

Clubs, Arawa Canoe Club,<br />

Aoraki Dragons and Te Waka<br />

Pounamu crews will all compete<br />

in the regatta.<br />

Avon-Otakaro Network<br />

spokesman Evan Smith said the<br />

partial opening was a milestone.<br />

“It’s important to get people<br />

engaged again in the red zone<br />

around the river. For a long<br />

time it’s been a scar in the landscape<br />

in the east, but it’s time<br />

now for that to heal.”<br />

He said the trail still needed<br />

to be completed from the Avondale<br />

Bridge to New Brighton,<br />

although many people had<br />

already been using the<br />

other sections.<br />

The date was chosen<br />

because it coincided<br />

WELL USED: Walkers have already been using the Te Ara<br />

Otakaro trail, along the Avonside section. ​<br />

with The Breeze Walking Festival,<br />

Biketober, Mental Health<br />

Week, school holidays and heritage<br />

and conservation weeks.<br />

Mayor Lianne Dalziel and<br />

Minister supporting greater<br />

Christchurch regeneration Nicky<br />

Wagner will lead the group from<br />

the central city, while Christchurch<br />

East MP Poto Williams and<br />

network chairman Teoti Jardine<br />

will lead those coming from New<br />

Brighton.<br />

The work to construct the trail<br />

is coinciding with the city council’s<br />

upgrade of temporary stop<br />

banks next to the river.<br />

City Care has done pro bono<br />

work on it, alongside a $50,000<br />

grant from the Ministry of Social<br />

Development.<br />

It is not yet known how long<br />

the trail will remain, because the<br />

future location of stop banks has<br />

not been decided.<br />

• Meet in the Middle<br />

will be held on Sunday, from<br />

11am-3pm, with<br />

access from Hockey Lane.<br />

Those walking will meet<br />

at <strong>10</strong>.30am. For more<br />

SCHOOL SPEED CHANGES<br />

Cars may have to slow down<br />

near Aidanfield Christian<br />

School. At its meeting tonight,<br />

the Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton<br />

Community Board will discuss<br />

a new variable speed limit of<br />

40km/h on Aidanfield Drive<br />

outside the school. City council<br />

WORKING GROUP<br />

A working group looking at the<br />

layout and future development<br />

of Scott Park in Mt Pleasant<br />

will meet tomorrow. The<br />

group was set up after Coastal<br />

Pathway Group chairman<br />

Scott Babington last month<br />

raised concerns about public<br />

access to the Scott Park<br />

foreshore near the Ferrymead<br />

Bridge. Mr Babington said the<br />

meeting would be a chance<br />

to start developing an overall<br />

masterplan for park users.<br />

DOG PARK<br />

The Ferrymead site that<br />

was once home to the failed<br />

Christchurch Maori Village<br />

could be turned into a dog park.<br />

The Linwood-Central-Heathcote<br />

Community Board has asked<br />

city council staff to prepare a<br />

report on whether the site could<br />

be used as a dog exercise area.<br />

Memories shared as<br />

quarry building reopens<br />

• By Emily O’Connell<br />

THE WITHERS’ family<br />

celebrated with a crowd<br />

of about 30 people as the<br />

Singlemen’s Quarters in<br />

Halswell Quarry Park<br />

reopened on Wednesday.<br />

The building, which has<br />

been closed since the February<br />

22, 2011, earthquake,<br />

spent a year under repair.<br />

The historic building dates<br />

back to 1922.<br />

Former city councillor<br />

Norm Withers and his family<br />

are descendants of one of<br />

the original tenants of the<br />

quarters.<br />

Mr Withers said he really<br />

enjoyed the whole day.<br />

He said being there brought<br />

back a lot of memories from<br />

his childhood, like him flying<br />

kites with his uncles.<br />

He believed all their<br />

loved ones would have been<br />

proudly looking down on<br />

them, he said.<br />

City councillor Anne<br />

Galloway said with the<br />

growing number of people<br />

in Halswell, the building<br />

continued to be an important<br />

LOOKING BACK: John Wilson’s book Local Lives: A History of<br />

Addington, won’t be published until next year.<br />

Addington book delayed<br />

• By Andrew King<br />

A BOOK about the history of<br />

Addington will now be released<br />

next year due to funding<br />

problems.<br />

The book titled Local Lives: A<br />

History of Addington was due to<br />

be released on November 15, but<br />

has now been postponed until<br />

May.<br />

It is being produced by the<br />

Addington Neighbourhood<br />

Association and historian John<br />

Wilson.<br />

Association treasurer Graham<br />

Robinson said the funding it<br />

thought it would get was not<br />

available until next year, but the<br />

book can be preordered.<br />

“It will still be coming out but<br />

because of a funding issue we<br />

need to delay the printing,” he<br />

said.<br />

Mr Wilson has spent more<br />

than 20 years interviewing locals,<br />

pouring over records and collating<br />

a huge amount information<br />

to put the 368-page book<br />

together.<br />

“I have talked to a lot of people,<br />

but have missed a lot as well. If I<br />

was to interview everyone on the<br />

list, I would have been dead for<br />

20 years,” he said.<br />

Mr Wilson, who now resides<br />

in Arthur’s Pass, was working<br />

for the city council heritage<br />

team in the 1990s when he was<br />

approached by the association to<br />

write a book about the suburb.<br />

Mr Wilson, who has a PhD in<br />

history from Harvard University,<br />

said it was great the book was<br />

being designed and printed in<br />

Christchurch.<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

Crash victim tells sobering story<br />

• By Julia Evans<br />

CHRISTCHURCH Boys’ High<br />

School students are about to get<br />

a sobering lesson.<br />

George Cairney’s life was completely<br />

changed in<br />

2008 when he sat<br />

in the passenger’s<br />

seat of a car beside<br />

a driver who had<br />

been drinking.<br />

George<br />

Cairney<br />

Graham<br />

Clarke<br />

Nic Hill<br />

The car crashed<br />

into a brick wall at<br />

135km/h.<br />

He will talk<br />

about the incident<br />

to students at the<br />

CBHS hall on<br />

<strong>October</strong> 18 from<br />

7pm.<br />

At the time Mr<br />

Cairney, 24, was<br />

17 and attended<br />

King’s College in<br />

Auckland.<br />

Taking most<br />

of the impact of<br />

the crash, he has<br />

since been legally<br />

blind and has lost<br />

his sense of taste,<br />

hearing and smell,<br />

as well as developing diabetes,<br />

epilepsy and premature<br />

ageing.<br />

HIGH RISK: Crash victim George Cairney will talk about drink driving to students at CBHS on<br />

<strong>October</strong> 18.<br />

After spending a month in a<br />

coma, Mr Cairney also lost his<br />

memory from a year before and<br />

after the crash.<br />

His talk will discuss the road<br />

to recovery from his injuries, as<br />

well as the decisions which led<br />

to him to get into the car on that<br />

tragic day.<br />

Mr Cairney, who lives in<br />

Wanaka, will be supported<br />

during the talk by his mentor<br />

and friend Graham Clarke who<br />

has his own story to tell.<br />

His son was killed after getting<br />

behind the wheel after he’d been<br />

drinking.<br />

Headmaster Nic Hill has<br />

invited students from all schools<br />

around the city and the wider<br />

community to hear the story<br />

of “sadness, recovery, love and<br />

strength”.<br />

Mr Hill said the school is<br />

encouraging students to have<br />

emotional conversations about<br />

alcohol and driving.<br />

“These are conversations that<br />

we as adults have to be starting<br />

. . . there is a parental role<br />

in making sure our boys are<br />

equipped to be safe,” he said.<br />

New animal<br />

bylaw not likely<br />

COMPLAINTS ABOUT a<br />

noisy pig in Linwood made it<br />

all the way to the Linwood-<br />

Central-Heathcote Community<br />

Board table.<br />

However, city council staff<br />

have recommended the board<br />

should not investigate the possibility<br />

of introducing a city<br />

wide bylaw to regulate farm<br />

animals in residential areas.<br />

The pig was moved out of the<br />

area before the meeting – but<br />

the board asked city council<br />

staff for advice on the “keeping<br />

of farm animals in urban areas”<br />

anyway.<br />

In their response, staff said<br />

the keeping of animals is not<br />

regulated through a bylaw or<br />

in the District Plan and they<br />

did not recommend bringing<br />

one in.<br />

“A new bylaw could help<br />

improve clarity around what is<br />

considered acceptable behaviour<br />

around the keeping<br />

of livestock but it would not<br />

enable or offer advantages in<br />

terms of enforcement options,’’<br />

a memo said.<br />

Staff said a better alternative<br />

would be “a policy or other<br />

educational tools” to provide<br />

direction about appropriate<br />

behaviour without the same<br />

cost to the city council.<br />

Bid to overcome zoning snag<br />

•From page 1<br />

Because Mr Meyn’s plans do<br />

not comply, the project could be<br />

delayed by up to five years with<br />

resource and building consent<br />

processes.<br />

City council staff have been<br />

looking into how it could change<br />

the zoning to allow the expansion<br />

to go ahead.<br />

They decided the best way to<br />

do so was through the Greater<br />

Christchurch Regeneration Act.<br />

Today, the city council’s regulatory<br />

performance committee<br />

will decide whether to ask staff<br />

to investigate a way of doing so<br />

through the Act, and to report<br />

back to city councillors.<br />

It would require working with<br />

Regenerate Christchurch and the<br />

department of prime minister<br />

and Cabinet.<br />

It comes just as McDonald’s<br />

has applied for resource consent<br />

to the city council to build a new<br />

restaurant and drive through opposite<br />

the sporting facility.<br />

The idea to speed up the<br />

zone-changing process has been<br />

supported by Sport Canterbury,<br />

Christchurch Netball Centre,<br />

Canterbury Basketball Association,<br />

Mainland Football,<br />

Canterbury Water Polo, <strong>Southern</strong><br />

Districts Football Club,<br />

ChristchurchNZ, and Apollo<br />

SPECTACULAR: The current football academy, funded mainly by Slava Meyn and built in 2015. ​<br />

Projects – Aquatic and Sporting<br />

Facilities, who all wrote to the<br />

city council asking it to help<br />

change the zoning.<br />

Wigram MP Megan Woods<br />

and Canterbury Employers’<br />

Chamber of Commerce chief<br />

executive Peter Townsend have<br />

also written in support of using<br />

the act to do so.<br />

Dr Woods said it has the<br />

potential to be a really good asset<br />

for western Christchurch but the<br />

community must be involved.<br />

“I think what we absolutely<br />

have to do is make sure that we<br />

get the views of the community<br />

in the process as well,” she said.<br />

The existing football facility<br />

has two full size artificial<br />

football pitches, four artificial<br />

mini-pitches, a full-size natural<br />

turf pitch, clubroom facilities,<br />

café, administrative offices,<br />

grandstand seating for about<br />

AN ORIGINAL Team New<br />

Blake and Sir Russell Coutts who<br />

headed the 1995 campaign.<br />

The auction is one of many<br />

items on the website GalaBid,<br />

raising money for the rebuild of<br />

Pleasant Point Yacht Club’s clubrooms<br />

in South New Brighton<br />

The club lost all it’s facilities in<br />

the earthquakes.<br />

The auction is now under way<br />

until noon on Saturday.<br />

Team New Zealand will be<br />

hosted by the yacht club at an<br />

event on Saturday, where the<br />

auctioning of GalaBid items will<br />

Other items up for grabs include<br />

several seats on a helicopter<br />

ride piloted by Richie McCaw to<br />

a mystery location, a horse power<br />

experience in a dual sulky behind<br />

Monkey King, New Zealand’s<br />

top harness racer, and a hot laps<br />

session at Mike Pero Motorsport<br />

Park in a V8 Supercar driven by<br />

Greg Murphy. Club spokesman<br />

Nigel Humphreys is very happy<br />

with the auction items and said<br />

there is a constant stream of<br />

ticket sales for the event, which<br />

will take place at the Air Force<br />

Museum of New Zealand.<br />

and individuals keen to help the<br />

club realise its dream to rebuild<br />

in the South New Brighton Park,”<br />

said Mr Humphreys.<br />

SPRING HAS sprung, and<br />

Heathcote Valley School is<br />

gearing up for their annual<br />

twilight gala.<br />

It’s the main fundraising<br />

event for the school and organiser<br />

Jina Russell said she’d been<br />

planning since June for a “brilliant”<br />

community get together<br />

which usually attracted around<br />

2500 people.<br />

“I really love the atmosphere<br />

of getting it ready and everyone<br />

helping out. And just seeing<br />

kids running around having<br />

fun and families relaxing and<br />

being able to catch up.”<br />

This was her first year running<br />

the event, which was<br />

“scary, as the previous years it<br />

has been an amazing lady called<br />

Mel. I’ve got bit shoes to fill!”<br />

The Friday night timeslot<br />

made for a “relaxed, after-work<br />

environment for families,” Ms<br />

Russell said. “It’s a great way to<br />

end the week.”<br />

The evening involves games<br />

and activities to suit all ages,<br />

live entertainment and music<br />

TWO HALSWELL men<br />

have been recognised at the<br />

Apprenticeship Training Trust<br />

graduation and awards.<br />

ATT was established in 1991<br />

to provide trade training opportunities<br />

for New Zealanders.<br />

Its purpose is to deliver a regular<br />

stream of quality tradespeople to<br />

the construction industry.<br />

Nimo Vili graduated as a<br />

plumber gasfitter.<br />

Mr Vili is a father and has<br />

been supporting his family<br />

whilst undertaking his apprenticeship.<br />

Last year, he won the Plumbing<br />

World Prize for Excellence in<br />

Plumbing and Gasfitting.<br />

Mr Vili said he was both proud<br />

and relieved to have graduated.<br />

He said it was nice to not be on<br />

apprentice wages anymore.<br />

Shaun McCoskery is an apprentice<br />

in training. He won<br />

the Plumbing World Award for<br />

Excellence in Plumbing and<br />

Gasfitting.<br />

ATT’s CEO, Gray Paterson<br />

said they were delighted to see<br />

these talented and hard-working<br />

young people complete their apprenticeships.<br />

“We also salute the four<br />

apprentices who have won<br />

prizes for excellence. Mid-way<br />

through their apprenticeships,<br />

these young people are strongly<br />

committed and work to the<br />

high standards we set in our<br />

apprenticeship programme,” Mr<br />

Paterson said.<br />

Mr Vili is now working for a<br />

gas company and Mr McCoskery<br />

is continuing his apprenticeship<br />

with ATT.<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

FLAME FILES<br />

Fires, rescue, man impaled with bike handle - just another week<br />

• By Mark Thomas - Specialist fire<br />

investigator<br />

A RECENT call to Hei Hei<br />

presented a bit of a challenge for<br />

the Sockburn crew.<br />

A child in a wheelchair was<br />

stuck in her bedroom because<br />

the door handle had broken.<br />

She had been there for some<br />

hours before the family admitted<br />

defeat in their endeavours to<br />

make entry.<br />

The fire crew called managed<br />

to get one of their number<br />

through a window into the room<br />

with some small tools that were<br />

sufficient to break out.<br />

Family reunited.<br />

Water reported flowing from<br />

a house in Stanmore Rd turned<br />

out to be the downfall for some<br />

indoor gardeners.<br />

Helpful firefighters looking<br />

inside were worried that the<br />

chemicals visible were part of a<br />

methamphetamine lab.<br />

They weren’t, but several<br />

rooms full of spiky leafed illegal<br />

plants were found by the police<br />

experts called in.<br />

A resident of Aranui was<br />

recently taken to hospital with<br />

burns to the hand.<br />

You guessed it!<br />

Stovetop fire.<br />

Every week the same!<br />

Spreydon’s fire crew had the<br />

unpleasant job of removing a<br />

bicycle brake handle from a bike<br />

last Tuesday.<br />

That bit sounds easy.<br />

But the handle was impaled<br />

through the rider’s hand at the<br />

time.<br />

The delicate use of a serious<br />

pair of bolt cutters allowed the<br />

patient to be taken to hospital<br />

for expert surgery to remove the<br />

handle from hand.<br />

Finally, someone in Aranui<br />

was cold on Wednesday night.<br />

They opened the boarded up<br />

fireplace and lit a fire.<br />

It was boarded for a reason.<br />

No flue, no chimney!<br />

Ruthlessness recognised<br />

• By Andrew King<br />

CASHMERE HIGH footballer<br />

Eddie Wilkinson is known as<br />

a gentleman off the pitch and a<br />

ruthless competitor on it.<br />

His fierceness on the field has<br />

seen him named in the national<br />

under-19 team to travel to the<br />

United States in April.<br />

“I play my best out there. There<br />

are no friends on the field,” he<br />

said.<br />

Cashmere coach Craig Squire<br />

said he is a very talented player<br />

and an absolute gentleman off<br />

the pitch.<br />

“He is one of the most polite,<br />

respectful people I have had the<br />

pleasure of teaching in the past<br />

15 years,” he said.<br />

“He will do great things in the<br />

sport.”<br />

The 17-year-old had a great<br />

season for Cashmere High’s<br />

first XI, which placed 14th at the<br />

national tournament in Napier<br />

last month.<br />

Wilkinson was named Cashmere’s<br />

most valuable player for<br />

HILLMORTON High’s<br />

away from winning their first<br />

national title.<br />

After cruising through pool<br />

play and the semis undefeated,<br />

the boys team, which came<br />

last at the 2016 Schick<br />

championships secondary<br />

schools nationals, narrowly lost<br />

to Taranaki’s Stratford High 77-<br />

72 in the final on Thursday.<br />

Canterbury Ram’s co-captain<br />

and coach Marques Whippy<br />

said the team was down by 35<br />

heading into the final quarter<br />

but came roaring back to lose by<br />

only five.<br />

“Another minute, we would<br />

have won,” he said. “[We] took<br />

a couple of quarters to settle<br />

before coming right.”<br />

The side competed in the ‘A’<br />

grade, a level below the top ‘AA’<br />

grade played at nationals.<br />

HEALTH & BEAUTY<br />

SOUTHERN VIEW<br />

Love your dentures<br />

Is it time to swap your generic denture appearance<br />

for a beautiful, natural looking smile?<br />

Internationally renowned dental<br />

technician Richard Greenlees,<br />

PGDipCDTech (University of Otago) of<br />

Lovebite is the person to call.<br />

His special point of difference is<br />

rebuilding what he calls the Oral<br />

Architecture, the structure and shape of<br />

a patient’s face that is often lost following<br />

years of wearing dentures.<br />

Lovebite dentures address problems<br />

that can arise due to years of the patient<br />

wearing incorrectly fitting or poorly<br />

functioning dentures, such as poor<br />

occlusion (the way the teeth come<br />

together), aesthetics, function and<br />

hygiene.<br />

An intricate knowledge and<br />

understanding of facial features allows<br />

Richard to return facial tissues back to the<br />

correct position, reform lips, and restore<br />

beauty and confidence.<br />

Richard provides a friendly, discreet<br />

service and personally guides his patients<br />

through the transformation process to<br />

create teeth with small nuances in the<br />

fabrication, colour and shape.<br />

Carmen, a recent patient said in a<br />

thank you letter to Richard, “I highly<br />

recommend your craftsmanship to anyone<br />

wanting a natural looking smile. Because<br />

you do your work in front of your client,<br />

one is able to see how meticulous and<br />

dedicated you are to ending up with a top<br />

class result. My dentures are amazing.<br />

They look like one’s own natural teeth. So<br />

much time, effort and energy went into<br />

the end result. Simply the best.”<br />

Richard’s patients have varying needs,<br />

from full denture replacement, to first<br />

time immediate dentures, implant<br />

supported dentures and metal partial<br />

dentures.<br />

Since he started making teeth in<br />

1980 Richard has travelled extensively,<br />

accumulating vast knowledge through<br />

training and working in Japan, and<br />

running his own practice in the<br />

prestigious Harley Street, London for 15<br />

years. He continues to teach his world<br />

leading techniques globally.<br />

Richard also creates porcelain crowns<br />

and veneers, working with like-minded<br />

dental professionals.<br />

A beautiful new Lovebite smile<br />

resembles nature and reflects the patient’s<br />

character. It boosts confidence and helps<br />

patients to look and feel years younger.<br />

AFTER<br />

These before and after photographs<br />

perfectly highlight the facial<br />

rejuvenation that can be achieved<br />

with a Lovebite denture (right).<br />

The patient’s facial structure and<br />

shape have been restored, with her<br />

beautiful new smile transforming<br />

the way she looks and feels.<br />

These stunning lovebite full upper and<br />

internationally-recognised dental technician<br />

Richard Greenlees at his Christchurch studio.<br />

The combination of Richard’s skill, experience<br />

(including 15 years in London’s prestigious<br />

Harley Street) knowledge and revolutionary<br />

techniques allow him to create beautiful<br />

bespoke false teeth that truly resemble those<br />

in nature and reflect each patient’s individuality<br />

1 tsp Vanilla<br />

1¼ tsp Gluten-free baking<br />

powder<br />

AND MUSHROOM KEBABS<br />

Kebabs<br />

600g Beef rump steak<br />

12 small mushrooms<br />

1 Large onion, cut into 3cm<br />

squares<br />

6 Vine-sweet mini peppers,<br />

halved diagonally<br />

Syrup<br />

1 Tangelo, juiced<br />

¼ cup Sugar<br />

1 bowl Greek yoghurt, creme<br />

fraiche, vanilla ice cream or<br />

coconut yoghurt for a dairy-free<br />

alternative<br />

Directions<br />

Place whole tangelos in a large<br />

pot and cover with plenty of cold<br />

water. Boil for two hours, drain<br />

and allow to cool.<br />

Heat the oven to 180 deg C.<br />

Grease and line a 21cm round<br />

spring form cake tin.<br />

Cut tangelos in half and<br />

remove any pips. Place fruit<br />

(skin, pith, flesh and all) in a<br />

food processor and blitz until<br />

smooth.<br />

Add all other ingredients<br />

and blitz until smooth and well<br />

combined.<br />

Pour into prepared cake tin<br />

and bake for one hour or until a<br />

skewer inserted into the middle<br />

of the cake comes out clean.<br />

Cover cake with tin foil half way<br />

through cooking time to avoid<br />

the top burning.<br />

Remove cake from the oven,<br />

resealable plastic bag.<br />

Cut the steak into 3cm cubes,<br />

it around so it is evenly<br />

covered.<br />

Discard any long stems<br />

from the mushrooms. Add to<br />

the marinade and move them<br />

at least eight hours. This is the<br />

secret of the well-flavoured<br />

kebabs.<br />

CONTINUING EDUCATION<br />

SOUTHERN VIEW<br />

Papanui<br />

High School<br />

As the weather gets warmer and the<br />

evenings get longer it is the ideal time to get<br />

out of the house and learn something new<br />

and meet some new people by taking part<br />

in one of the wide range of nightclasses on<br />

offer at Papanui High School for Term 4<br />

beginning from Tuesday 24 <strong>October</strong>.<br />

From Art to Yoga and everything in<br />

between we are sure regardless of your<br />

age or interest you will find something<br />

to tempt you. Classes at Papanui High<br />

School are held in a warm, friendly relaxed<br />

environment and our tutors are supportive<br />

and well qualified in their chosen fields.<br />

A new course on offer is Creative Candle<br />

Making which will teach you to create<br />

your own soy container candles and<br />

melts, either for yourself or ideal as a gift.<br />

Discover more about soy wax, fragrance,<br />

wick selection and trouble shooting<br />

commom candle making issues. This is a<br />

hands on course where you will make 3 full<br />

sized scented candles, 6 melts, 5 tea lights<br />

and 1 votive. The cost of all materials is<br />

included in the course fee. This course is<br />

being taught by Jane Alexander and will be<br />

held at Papanui High School on Saturday 4<br />

November between <strong>10</strong> am – 4 pm at a cost<br />

of $148.<br />

For further information and enrolment<br />

Ensuring a safe<br />

work place<br />

Learning first aid is not only a part of<br />

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

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 4 sees us continuing to offer<br />

a range of classes across the city at<br />

Risingholme Community Centre,<br />

Riccarton High School, Shirley Boys High<br />

School, Christchurch Girls High School<br />

and Hornby High School, many of which<br />

have become a tradition of Risingholme<br />

Community Centre programme. So what<br />

better way to prepare for summer than<br />

to get out and learn something new by<br />

enrolling in a course of interest – maybe<br />

something that you have tried before and<br />

want to explore further or perhaps you<br />

would like to try something new, or to<br />

meet new people with similar interests.<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 />

Are you Digitally challenged in our<br />

ever changing digital world? Or if you<br />

are not familiar with using a computer,<br />

we offer classes on Computer Basics or<br />

maybe something more advanced such as<br />

like to know more about these or other<br />

classes that we are running, we would<br />

love to hear from, you can enrol via<br />

our website www.risingholme.org.<br />

nz or phone the Risingholme office<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 to<br />

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

products. This class will teach you a<br />

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

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 />

If you would like to know more about<br />

these classes or others on our website<br />

Fast turnaround for<br />

minor panel repairs<br />

As we all know, having our car off the road for minor<br />

panel repairs can be frustrating, but for customers of<br />

SMART Repairs in Lichfield Street, it isn’t a problem.<br />

“With our focus on fast turnaround,<br />

getting customers back on the road<br />

as quickly as possible is the way we do<br />

business,” says owner Brian Caffell, who<br />

runs the long-established panel shop<br />

with his wife Maxine.<br />

In addition, customers have the<br />

benefit of a courtesy car, so they can stay<br />

on the road while their vehicle is in the<br />

workshop. There is also a free pick-up<br />

and delivery service available if required.<br />

Customers can be assured of topquality<br />

workmanship at SMART<br />

Repairs, with the workshop team having<br />

over 40 years’ industry experience<br />

between them, with services including<br />

panelbeating, spraypainting, paintless<br />

dent removal, (PDR) and mag wheel<br />

repairs and painting.<br />

As specialists in small to medium<br />

panel repair work, no job is too small for<br />

SMART Repairs, and with their friendly,<br />

personal approach they make it easy for<br />

customers who may be unsure what to<br />

do if their vehicle has been scratched or<br />

dented.<br />

The team also provides quotes for all<br />

insurance companies, and carry out<br />

those repairs quickly and efficiently.<br />

“We take pride in our work and ensure<br />

that our customers are happy with the<br />

results,” says Maxine.<br />

SMART Repairs are currently looking<br />

at expanding and incorporating a mobile<br />

division, so they can come to you for<br />

minor paint and interior trim repairs,<br />

PDR and mag wheel repairs.<br />

SMART Repairs is located at 272<br />

Lichfield Street, at the Fitzgerald<br />

Avenue end. Opening hours are<br />

Monday to Friday, 8am-4.30pm.<br />
