Bid to
overcome
sporting
facility
zoning
snag
• By Emily O’Connell
A ROAD block, which is in the
way of a Russian businessman’s
plan to expand his Yaldhurst
sporting facility, might be cleared
today.
Canterbury Sports Ltd director
Slava Meyn, who moved to
Christchurch in 2009, built the
Yaldhurst Football Academy two
years ago.
He is now in the process of
planning a bigger complex on the
20ha block of land, which would
include a gymnastics indoor
stadium, swimming pool, sport
courts, and weights area.
But the land he wants to
develop is zoned Open Space
Community Park under the
district plan, which does not
allow for buildings larger than
1000 sq m.
Mr Meyn wants the zoning
to be changed to Open Space
Metropolitan Facilities Zone, so
he can progress the development
as planned.

FROM
THE
EDITOR’S
DESK
YOUNG MEN, cars, speed
and alcohol are unfortunately a
perfect mix for tragedy.
It was like that decades ago,
and it still remains today and
will no doubt into the future.
Next week, two people
affected by drink driving and
crashes will talk to students
at Christchurch Boys’ High
School.
One is a young guy who was
the passenger in a car driven by
a drink driver that crashed –
and one a dad who lost his son
to drink driving (see page 5).
How students digest the talk
will inevitably be up to them.
Hopefully, when they are
out at the weekend, they’ll
remember the talk and not
get into a car driven by a mate
who has been drinking, or get
behind the wheel themselves
after having a few.

Red zone trail opening celebration
• By Bridget Rutherford
UP TO 5000 people are expected
to meet in the middle on Sunday
to celebrate the partial opening
of the residential red zone’s first
major project.
The Meet in the Middle event
will be held at Kerrs Reach to
mark the partial completion of
Te Ara Otakaro, a city to sea
transitional trail running alongside
the Avon River.
When complete, the 12km
long trail will run from Barbadoes
St to Pages Rd, and will be
accessible for cyclists, walkers,
joggers and wheelchairs.

Singer
Hollie
Smith will
headline
Meet in
the Middle
on Sunday.
Organised by the Avon-Otakaro
Network, Meet in the Middle
will see groups meet at either the
New Brighton Clock Tower or on
the northern bank of the Avon,
opposite the Margaret Mahy
Family Playground, at 10.30am.
Both groups will then walk or
cycle to meet at Kerrs Reach at
noon for the free event, which
will have live music, food, information
stalls and a regatta.
New Zealand soul singer Hollie
Smith will headline the live
music. Folk band The Eastern’s
Adam McGrath will also play.
Canterbury and Union Rowing
Clubs, Arawa Canoe Club,
Aoraki Dragons and Te Waka
Pounamu crews will all compete
in the regatta.
Avon-Otakaro Network
spokesman Evan Smith said the
partial opening was a milestone.
“It’s important to get people
engaged again in the red zone
around the river. For a long
time it’s been a scar in the landscape
in the east, but it’s time
now for that to heal.”
He said the trail still needed
to be completed from the Avondale
Bridge to New Brighton,
although many people had
already been using the
other sections.
The date was chosen
because it coincided

Otakaro trail, along the Avonside section.
with The Breeze Walking Festival,
Biketober, Mental Health
Week, school holidays and heritage
and conservation weeks.
Mayor Lianne Dalziel and
Minister supporting greater
Christchurch regeneration Nicky
Wagner will lead the group from
the central city, while Christchurch
East MP Poto Williams and
network chairman Teoti Jardine
will lead those coming from New
Brighton.
The work to construct the trail
is coinciding with the city council’s
upgrade of temporary stop
banks next to the river.
City Care has done pro bono
work on it, alongside a $50,000
grant from the Ministry of Social
Development.
It is not yet known how long
the trail will remain, because the
future location of stop banks has
not been decided.
• Meet in the Middle
will be held on Sunday, from
11am-3pm, with
access from Hockey Lane.
Those walking will meet
at 10.30am. For more

SCHOOL SPEED CHANGES
Cars may have to slow down
near Aidanfield Christian
School. At its meeting tonight,
the Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton
Community Board will discuss
a new variable speed limit of
40km/h on Aidanfield Drive
outside the school. City council
staff recommend approving the
speed change, which would cost
$32,000.
WORKING GROUP
A working group looking at the
layout and future development
of Scott Park in Mt Pleasant
will meet tomorrow. The
group was set up after Coastal
Pathway Group chairman
Scott Babington last month
raised concerns about public
access to the Scott Park
foreshore near the Ferrymead
Bridge. Mr Babington said the
meeting would be a chance
to start developing an overall
masterplan for park users.
DOG PARK
The Ferrymead site that
was once home to the failed
Christchurch Maori Village
could be turned into a dog park.
The Linwood-Central-Heathcote
Community Board has asked
city council staff to prepare a
report on whether the site could
be used as a dog exercise area.

Memories shared as
quarry building reopens
• By Emily O’Connell
THE WITHERS’ family
celebrated with a crowd
of about 30 people as the
Singlemen’s Quarters in
Halswell Quarry Park
reopened on Wednesday.
The building, which has
been closed since the February
22, 2011, earthquake,
spent a year under repair.
The historic building dates
back to 1922.
Former city councillor
Norm Withers and his family
are descendants of one of
the original tenants of the
quarters.
Mr Withers said he really
enjoyed the whole day.
He said being there brought
back a lot of memories from
his childhood, like him flying
kites with his uncles.
He believed all their
loved ones would have been
proudly looking down on
them, he said.
City councillor Anne
Galloway said with the
growing number of people
in Halswell, the building
continued to be an important

LOOKING BACK: John Wilson’s book Local Lives: A History of
Addington, won’t be published until next year.
Addington book delayed
• By Andrew King
A BOOK about the history of
Addington will now be released
next year due to funding
problems.
The book titled Local Lives: A
History of Addington was due to
be released on November 15, but
has now been postponed until
May.
It is being produced by the
Addington Neighbourhood
Association and historian John
Wilson.
Association treasurer Graham
Robinson said the funding it
thought it would get was not
available until next year, but the
book can be preordered.
“It will still be coming out but
because of a funding issue we
need to delay the printing,” he
said.
Mr Wilson has spent more
than 20 years interviewing locals,
pouring over records and collating
a huge amount information
to put the 368-page book
together.
“I have talked to a lot of people,
but have missed a lot as well. If I
was to interview everyone on the
list, I would have been dead for
20 years,” he said.
Mr Wilson, who now resides
in Arthur’s Pass, was working
for the city council heritage
team in the 1990s when he was
approached by the association to
write a book about the suburb.
Mr Wilson, who has a PhD in
history from Harvard University,
said it was great the book was
being designed and printed in
Christchurch.

Fire rages, homes at risk
Crash victim tells sobering story
• By Julia Evans
CHRISTCHURCH Boys’ High
School students are about to get
a sobering lesson.
George Cairney’s life was completely
changed in
2008 when he sat
in the passenger’s
seat of a car beside
a driver who had
been drinking.
George
Cairney
Graham
Clarke
Nic Hill
The car crashed
into a brick wall at
135km/h.
He will talk
about the incident
to students at the
CBHS hall on
October 18 from
7pm.
At the time Mr
Cairney, 24, was
17 and attended
King’s College in
Auckland.
Taking most
of the impact of
the crash, he has
since been legally
blind and has lost
his sense of taste,
hearing and smell,
as well as developing diabetes,
epilepsy and premature
ageing.
HIGH RISK: Crash victim George Cairney will talk about drink driving to students at CBHS on
October 18.
After spending a month in a
coma, Mr Cairney also lost his
memory from a year before and
after the crash.
His talk will discuss the road
to recovery from his injuries, as
well as the decisions which led
to him to get into the car on that
tragic day.
Mr Cairney, who lives in
Wanaka, will be supported
during the talk by his mentor
and friend Graham Clarke who
has his own story to tell.
His son was killed after getting
behind the wheel after he’d been
drinking.
Headmaster Nic Hill has
invited students from all schools
around the city and the wider
community to hear the story
of “sadness, recovery, love and
strength”.
Mr Hill said the school is
encouraging students to have
emotional conversations about
alcohol and driving.
“These are conversations that
we as adults have to be starting
. . . there is a parental role
in making sure our boys are
equipped to be safe,” he said.
We’ve been trusted to look after hundreds
of properties all over Christchurch.
You can trust us to look after your’s too.

New animal
bylaw not likely
COMPLAINTS ABOUT a
noisy pig in Linwood made it
all the way to the Linwood-
Central-Heathcote Community
Board table.
However, city council staff
have recommended the board
should not investigate the possibility
of introducing a city
wide bylaw to regulate farm
animals in residential areas.
The pig was moved out of the
area before the meeting – but
the board asked city council
staff for advice on the “keeping
of farm animals in urban areas”
anyway.
In their response, staff said
the keeping of animals is not
regulated through a bylaw or
in the District Plan and they
did not recommend bringing
one in.
“A new bylaw could help
improve clarity around what is
considered acceptable behaviour
around the keeping
of livestock but it would not
enable or offer advantages in
terms of enforcement options,’’
a memo said.
Staff said a better alternative
would be “a policy or other
educational tools” to provide
direction about appropriate
behaviour without the same
cost to the city council.
Bid to overcome zoning snag
•From page 1
Because Mr Meyn’s plans do
not comply, the project could be
delayed by up to five years with
resource and building consent
processes.
City council staff have been
looking into how it could change
the zoning to allow the expansion
to go ahead.
They decided the best way to
do so was through the Greater
Christchurch Regeneration Act.
Today, the city council’s regulatory
performance committee
will decide whether to ask staff
to investigate a way of doing so
through the Act, and to report
back to city councillors.
It would require working with
Regenerate Christchurch and the
department of prime minister
and Cabinet.
It comes just as McDonald’s
has applied for resource consent
to the city council to build a new
restaurant and drive through opposite
the sporting facility.
The idea to speed up the
zone-changing process has been
supported by Sport Canterbury,
Christchurch Netball Centre,
Canterbury Basketball Association,
Mainland Football,
Canterbury Water Polo, Southern
Districts Football Club,
ChristchurchNZ, and Apollo
SPECTACULAR: The current football academy, funded mainly by Slava Meyn and built in 2015.
Projects – Aquatic and Sporting
Facilities, who all wrote to the
city council asking it to help
change the zoning.
Wigram MP Megan Woods
and Canterbury Employers’
Chamber of Commerce chief
executive Peter Townsend have
also written in support of using
the act to do so.
Dr Woods said it has the
potential to be a really good asset
for western Christchurch but the
community must be involved.
“I think what we absolutely
have to do is make sure that we
get the views of the community
in the process as well,” she said.
The existing football facility
has two full size artificial
football pitches, four artificial
mini-pitches, a full-size natural
turf pitch, clubroom facilities,
café, administrative offices,
grandstand seating for about
1000 people.
PROPOSED: A swimming
complex like this is planned
for the Yaldhurst facility.

Historic Team NZ shirt up for grabs
• By Sophie Cornish
AN ORIGINAL Team New
Zealand shirt from the historic
1995 America’s Cup win is up for
auction to raise money for the
rebuild of Pleasant Point Yacht
Club.
It is one of 1000 limited edition
shirts with a certificate of
authenticity signed by Sir Peter
Blake and Sir Russell Coutts who
headed the 1995 campaign.
The auction is one of many
items on the website GalaBid,
raising money for the rebuild of
Pleasant Point Yacht Club’s clubrooms
in South New Brighton
Park.
The club lost all it’s facilities in
the earthquakes.
The auction is now under way
until noon on Saturday.
Team New Zealand will be
hosted by the yacht club at an
event on Saturday, where the
auctioning of GalaBid items will
continue.
Other items up for grabs include
several seats on a helicopter
ride piloted by Richie McCaw to
a mystery location, a horse power
experience in a dual sulky behind
Monkey King, New Zealand’s
top harness racer, and a hot laps
session at Mike Pero Motorsport
Park in a V8 Supercar driven by
Greg Murphy. Club spokesman
Nigel Humphreys is very happy
with the auction items and said
there is a constant stream of
ticket sales for the event, which
will take place at the Air Force
Museum of New Zealand.
FUNDRAISING:
The Team New
Zealand shirt
that will go up
for auction to
raise funds for
Pleasant Point
Yacht Club’s
proposed new
clubrooms.
“The special auction items have
all been donated by businesses
and individuals keen to help the
club realise its dream to rebuild
in the South New Brighton Park,”
said Mr Humphreys.
Those who are not attending
the event but still wish to
continue bidding on the items
should contact club commodore
Alastair Burgess.

It’s the main fundraising
event for the school and organiser
Jina Russell said she’d been

2500 people.
“I really love the atmosphere

helping out. And just seeing
kids running around having
fun and families relaxing and
being able to catch up.”
This was her first year running
the event, which was
“scary, as the previous years it
has been an amazing lady called
Mel. I’ve got bit shoes to fill!”
The Friday night timeslot
made for a “relaxed, after-work
environment for families,” Ms
Russell said. “It’s a great way to
end the week.”
The evening involves games
and activities to suit all ages,
live entertainment and music

TWO HALSWELL men
have been recognised at the
Apprenticeship Training Trust
graduation and awards.
ATT was established in 1991
to provide trade training opportunities
for New Zealanders.
Its purpose is to deliver a regular
stream of quality tradespeople to
the construction industry.
Nimo Vili graduated as a
plumber gasfitter.
Mr Vili is a father and has
been supporting his family
whilst undertaking his apprenticeship.
Last year, he won the Plumbing
World Prize for Excellence in
Plumbing and Gasfitting.
Mr Vili said he was both proud
and relieved to have graduated.
He said it was nice to not be on
apprentice wages anymore.
Shaun McCoskery is an apprentice
in training. He won
the Plumbing World Award for
Excellence in Plumbing and
Gasfitting.
ATT’s CEO, Gray Paterson
said they were delighted to see
these talented and hard-working
young people complete their apprenticeships.
“We also salute the four
apprentices who have won
prizes for excellence. Mid-way
through their apprenticeships,
these young people are strongly
committed and work to the
high standards we set in our
apprenticeship programme,” Mr
Paterson said.
Mr Vili is now working for a
gas company and Mr McCoskery
is continuing his apprenticeship
with ATT.

Fire rages, homes at risk
FLAME FILES
Fires, rescue, man impaled with bike handle - just another week
• By Mark Thomas - Specialist fire
investigator
A RECENT call to Hei Hei
presented a bit of a challenge for
the Sockburn crew.
A child in a wheelchair was
stuck in her bedroom because
the door handle had broken.
She had been there for some
hours before the family admitted
defeat in their endeavours to
make entry.
The fire crew called managed
to get one of their number
through a window into the room
with some small tools that were
sufficient to break out.
Family reunited.
Water reported flowing from
a house in Stanmore Rd turned
out to be the downfall for some
indoor gardeners.
Helpful firefighters looking
inside were worried that the
chemicals visible were part of a
methamphetamine lab.
They weren’t, but several
rooms full of spiky leafed illegal
plants were found by the police
experts called in.
A resident of Aranui was
recently taken to hospital with
burns to the hand.
You guessed it!
Stovetop fire.
Every week the same!
Spreydon’s fire crew had the
unpleasant job of removing a
bicycle brake handle from a bike
last Tuesday.
That bit sounds easy.
But the handle was impaled
through the rider’s hand at the
time.
The delicate use of a serious
pair of bolt cutters allowed the
patient to be taken to hospital
for expert surgery to remove the
handle from hand.
Finally, someone in Aranui
was cold on Wednesday night.
They opened the boarded up
fireplace and lit a fire.
It was boarded for a reason.
No flue, no chimney!

Ruthlessness recognised
• By Andrew King
CASHMERE HIGH footballer
Eddie Wilkinson is known as
a gentleman off the pitch and a
ruthless competitor on it.
His fierceness on the field has
seen him named in the national
under-19 team to travel to the
United States in April.
“I play my best out there. There
are no friends on the field,” he
said.
Cashmere coach Craig Squire
said he is a very talented player
and an absolute gentleman off
the pitch.
“He is one of the most polite,
respectful people I have had the
pleasure of teaching in the past
15 years,” he said.
“He will do great things in the
sport.”
The 17-year-old had a great
season for Cashmere High’s
first XI, which placed 14th at the
national tournament in Napier
last month.
Wilkinson was named Cashmere’s
most valuable player for
the tournament.
He also played for FCTwenty11
this year after competing for
Halswell United since age 9.
He is looking forward to playing
overseas, saying it was a great
way to get noticed.
“I want to get into a college
over there and play football
professionally, or at least get it

Love your dentures
Is it time to swap your generic denture appearance
for a beautiful, natural looking smile?
Internationally renowned dental
technician Richard Greenlees,
PGDipCDTech (University of Otago) of
Lovebite is the person to call.
His special point of difference is
rebuilding what he calls the Oral
Architecture, the structure and shape of
a patient’s face that is often lost following
years of wearing dentures.
Lovebite dentures address problems
that can arise due to years of the patient
wearing incorrectly fitting or poorly
functioning dentures, such as poor
occlusion (the way the teeth come
together), aesthetics, function and
hygiene.
An intricate knowledge and
understanding of facial features allows
Richard to return facial tissues back to the
correct position, reform lips, and restore
beauty and confidence.
Richard provides a friendly, discreet
service and personally guides his patients
through the transformation process to
create teeth with small nuances in the
fabrication, colour and shape.
Carmen, a recent patient said in a
thank you letter to Richard, “I highly
recommend your craftsmanship to anyone
wanting a natural looking smile. Because
you do your work in front of your client,
one is able to see how meticulous and
dedicated you are to ending up with a top
class result. My dentures are amazing.
They look like one’s own natural teeth. So
much time, effort and energy went into
the end result. Simply the best.”
Richard’s patients have varying needs,
from full denture replacement, to first
time immediate dentures, implant
supported dentures and metal partial
dentures.
Since he started making teeth in
1980 Richard has travelled extensively,
accumulating vast knowledge through
training and working in Japan, and
running his own practice in the
prestigious Harley Street, London for 15
years. He continues to teach his world
leading techniques globally.
Richard also creates porcelain crowns
and veneers, working with like-minded
dental professionals.
A beautiful new Lovebite smile
resembles nature and reflects the patient’s
character. It boosts confidence and helps
patients to look and feel years younger.

of stunning Lovebite dentures, visit

BEFORE
AFTER
These before and after photographs
perfectly highlight the facial
rejuvenation that can be achieved
with a Lovebite denture (right).
The patient’s facial structure and
shape have been restored, with her
beautiful new smile transforming
the way she looks and feels.

STUNNING: A beautiful new denture for
a young female patient
These stunning lovebite full upper and
lower dentures have been expertly crafted by
internationally-recognised dental technician
Richard Greenlees at his Christchurch studio.
The combination of Richard’s skill, experience
(including 15 years in London’s prestigious
Harley Street) knowledge and revolutionary
techniques allow him to create beautiful
bespoke false teeth that truly resemble those
in nature and reflect each patient’s individuality
and unique character.

Papanui
High School
As the weather gets warmer and the
evenings get longer it is the ideal time to get
out of the house and learn something new
and meet some new people by taking part
in one of the wide range of nightclasses on
offer at Papanui High School for Term 4
beginning from Tuesday 24 October.
From Art to Yoga and everything in
between we are sure regardless of your
age or interest you will find something
to tempt you. Classes at Papanui High
School are held in a warm, friendly relaxed
environment and our tutors are supportive
and well qualified in their chosen fields.
A new course on offer is Creative Candle
Making which will teach you to create
your own soy container candles and
melts, either for yourself or ideal as a gift.
Discover more about soy wax, fragrance,
wick selection and trouble shooting
commom candle making issues. This is a
hands on course where you will make 3 full
sized scented candles, 6 melts, 5 tea lights
and 1 votive. The cost of all materials is
included in the course fee. This course is
being taught by Jane Alexander and will be
held at Papanui High School on Saturday 4
November between 10 am – 4 pm at a cost
of $148.
For further information and enrolment
in this or any of our Term 4 courses
please visit our website on www.papanui.

nz or telephone our office on 3520701.
Ensuring a safe
work place
Learning first aid is not only a part of
ensuring a safe work place, but also an
integral part of our engagement with
the wider community. We all learn the
necessary skills to ensure that in times of
emergency we are able to assist our work
colleagues, but are we able to take these
skills home, into the community or on to
the sports field?
Not all work places are the same and
the injury risk for each place can be
wide and variable. The office attended by
administrators does not carry the same
risk as those people working with heavy
machinery, or perhaps at some distance
from a regular ambulance service. It is
therefore essential that you pick the right
first aid course to suit all of your activities
– both professional and social.
Take, for example, an office worker who
does not have a high risk work environment
and whose concern might be to ensure
that they can deal with minor cuts and
superficial injuries, or the ability to perform
effective CPR. These skills can be achieved
on a course of eight hours duration and
would generally fit into low to medium
risk area. But take this same person on to
a sports field either as a spectator or player
when a higher level injury occurs. The
eight hour course covering unit standards
6402 and 6401 (or 26551 and 26552) does
not cover head neck and spinal injuries,
eye injuries, hypothermia and poisonings.
The majority of injuries occur outside of
the work place, in fact one in three injuries
occurs in the home, making it the most
common place for injuries to happen.
New Zealand children are twice as likely
to die through injury as children who live
in Australia. They mostly die as a result
of motor vehicles accidents or falls in the
home. Fatalities from leisure and sport are
not far behind those in the workplace.
The wider 12 hour course teaches the
additional unit standard 6400 and provides
a wide knowledge base for medium to high
risk environments. This course covers
many of the skills required to deal with
the most common injuries, such as falls
(which can result in head, neck and spinal
injuries) and dealing with complex scenes
such as motor vehicle accidents.
If you are not sure on the course best
suited to your needs, ask your accredited
first aid training provider. They can explain
the course content and give you options
that will best suit your needs. Look beyond
the workplace and consider your family
and your location. Check that you have a
good quality first aid kit that is up-to-date
with replenished items, and that everyone
knows where it is located.

your mind wanders in meditation,
or you would like a creative aspect to
your mindfulness, this may work for
you. This method of drawing does not
require any previous drawing ability,
it can be a 15 minute practice you can
build into your everyday, or you can
explore some of the more creative ways
you can then use this design practise to
make your own cards, images, or decorate
products. This class will teach you a
variety of ‘tangles’ and get you started on
your Zentangle path in a supportive and
creative atmosphere, and you can build it

Fast turnaround for
minor panel repairs
As we all know, having our car off the road for minor
panel repairs can be frustrating, but for customers of
SMART Repairs in Lichfield Street, it isn’t a problem.
“With our focus on fast turnaround,
getting customers back on the road
as quickly as possible is the way we do
business,” says owner Brian Caffell, who
runs the long-established panel shop
with his wife Maxine.
In addition, customers have the
benefit of a courtesy car, so they can stay
on the road while their vehicle is in the
workshop. There is also a free pick-up
and delivery service available if required.
Customers can be assured of topquality
workmanship at SMART
Repairs, with the workshop team having
over 40 years’ industry experience
between them, with services including
panelbeating, spraypainting, paintless
dent removal, (PDR) and mag wheel
repairs and painting.
As specialists in small to medium
panel repair work, no job is too small for
SMART Repairs, and with their friendly,
personal approach they make it easy for
customers who may be unsure what to
do if their vehicle has been scratched or
dented.
The team also provides quotes for all
insurance companies, and carry out
those repairs quickly and efficiently.
“We take pride in our work and ensure
that our customers are happy with the
results,” says Maxine.
SMART Repairs are currently looking
at expanding and incorporating a mobile
division, so they can come to you for
minor paint and interior trim repairs,
PDR and mag wheel repairs.
SMART Repairs is located at 272
Lichfield Street, at the Fitzgerald
Avenue end. Opening hours are
Monday to Friday, 8am-4.30pm.
