DO-GOOD: Local hero and baker Brian Cate also delivers food to struggling families. 

• By Julia Evans 

BAKER BRIAN Cate starts 

work at 1am. 

But when his shift is over at 

Sydenham Bakery by 10am, Mr 

Cate doesn’t always head home 

to bed. For the last 16 years, 

every Tuesday and Thursday 

he has delivered food parcels to 

families from Burnside to Belfast 

and every suburb in between. 

Mr Cate has spent nearly 6000 

hours volunteering through 

the Papanui Baptist Church, in 

conjunction with 0800 Hungry, 

delivering food to more than 

11,000 families and individuals 

in the north-west. 

Without Mr Cate at least 

14 local families would be

ONE OF the last “gentleman’s 

estates” in the city has been given a 

new lease of life. 

A heritage incentive grant of 

$135,979 for Opawa’s Cardowan 

estate was approved by the city 

council. 

The property at 64 Opawa Rd 

was built in the 1860s at a time 

when the suburb was a desirable 

residential area and land was being 

subdivided into gentlemen’s estates 

for professional men. 

But Cardowan was badly damaged 

in the earthquakes and subsequently 

sold on an as is, where 

is basis to TT Properties Ltd, 

which want to repair and restore 

the home and rejuvenate its large 

gardens. 

TT Properties Ltd director Tangi 

Karati applied to the council for a 

heritage grant to help meet the cost 

of the work, which is estimated at 

close to $300,000. 

The $135,979 grant is subject 

to a 20-year limited conservation 

covenant being placed on the 

property.

TOP MARKS to Brian Cate, the Sydenham 

Bakery baker on our front page today. 

Brian is one of these people who work 

odd hours – most bakers do. 

His shift starts at 1am and he works 

through until 9 or 10am and then his after work time starts. 

That includes charity work; delivering food parcels to families 

through a programme at his church. 

And then it’s off home and he’ll be in the sack by around 5pm 

to get enough sleep to start his work day all over again at 1am. 

For his charity work, Brent has received a Kiwibank Local 

Hero Award, alongside a number of other Cantabrians. 

The Local Hero Awards are the real deal. Well deserved Brian.

Lanes for coastal pathway 

• By Sarla Donovan 

LANES WILL be marked to 

separate cyclists and pedestrians 

on the Christchurch Coastal 

Pathway. 

The measures are needed, the 

Coastal Pathway Group said, 

as the path was attracting an 

increasing number of cyclists - 

peaking around 5pm 

Chairman Scott Babington 

said outside that time, there were 

currently about 100 walkers and 

cyclists a day passing through 

Scott Park, “ which is the area 

most affected.” 

He said on the whole, the two 

groups shared the pathway well, 

but it made sense to provide 

markings and signs informing 

users it was a shared space. 

The New Zealand Transport 

Agency doesn’t impose a speed 

limit on shared pathways, but 

Mr Babington said they may 

need to consider introducing 

one. 

“Especially with the advent 

of electric bikes which may 

use the pathway and are often 

very powerful and used by 

inexperienced cyclists.” 

Shared paths are for “slower 

more relaxed travel,” according 

to the NZTA website. 

“On a shared path you 

should put your e-bike in a 

low power setting and cycle at 

a speed consistent with other 

users so that it does not put 

others at risk or make them feel 

uncomfortable when you pass.” 

CPG is working on a signage 

plan at the moment, which 

would be based on the one at 

Hagley Park. 

“We have other measures 

(planned) such as different 

surfaces on the pathway to make 

the point to users that this is a 

shared pathway and if they want 

to cycle fast then there are the 

on-road cycle lanes to use.” 

Mr Babington said there 

was standard shared pathway 

signage already but it was “very 

ugly and visually obtrusive and I 

think completely ineffective. So 

we are working with the council 

on better, more appropriate 

options.” 

CPG committee member 

Janine Banbury said she was 

working with a designer to 

create pavement graphics and 

expected to have them finished 

by Christmas. 

Redcliffs Residents 

Association secretary Pat 

McIntosh said they were in full 

support of putting better signage 

in place.

Christmas tips to keep 

your pets safe over the 

festive season 

‘Tis the season to be jolly! In the spirit of the 

coming festive season the staff at McMaster 

and Heap Veterinary Practice wish to give 

you some helpful tips on how to keep your 

pets safe and happy over this busy time. 

Festive foods: 

Many festive foods can be harmful and 

toxic to cats & dogs – here are some of 

the major ones that pop up every year at 

Christmas time! 

Grapes and Raisins - Some types of 

grapes and raisins have been shown to 

cause kidney failure in dogs when eaten 

in toxic quantities. So think before offering 

your pet some tasty Christmas cake or 

yummy ‘treats’ off the fruit platers. 

Onions - Pieces of raw onion, onion 

powder, or even cooked onion can cause 

damage to red blood cells, which could 

result in hemolytic anemia. 

Garlic - fresh and powdered forms of garlic 

are more potent than onions. These also 

cause damage to red blood cells. Cats are 

much more sensitive as they have more 

fragile red blood cells. 

Xylitol - Xylitol is a sugar alternative that 

is used in many commercial ‘sugar-free’ 

candies, gum, and other food items. 

Xylitol has been shown to cause severe 

hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) and liver 

damage in dogs and can be fatal. Xylitol 

keeps popping up in unexpected places – 

the newest one is peanut butter, so be sure 

to read the label carefully. 

Macadamia Nuts - dangerous to dogs 

when eaten can result in weakness, 

depression, vomiting, incoordination, and 

tremors. In most cases, dogs developed 

clinical signs within the first twelve hours 

after eating the macadamia nuts. 

Chocolate - Contains Theobromine and 

caffeine which can cause increased heart 

rate, tremors, and excitation, depending 

on the type and the quantity ingested 

potentially death when ingested at a toxic 

dose. Other effects seen with chocolate 

overdose are vomiting, diarrhea, increased 

thirst, increased urination, and lethargy. 

Dark chocolate is the most serious as it 

contains the most theobromine, then milk 

chocolate, while white chocolate doesn’t 

contain any, but still not healthy for your 

dog to have. 

Cooked bones – These easily splinter 

and the bone shards can cause choking or 

get stuck in your dog’s gums or stomach 

resulting in emergency surgery. Discourage 

your dog from foraging in your bins and try 

to secure all of the lids. 

Christmas Decorations 

Christmas decorations are not for pets to 

play with. 

• Keep your pet away from plants, many of 

which are poisonous, especially lilies which 

are extremely toxic for cats and results in 

acute kidney failure. 

• Keep electrical wires and batteries out of 

your pets reach. Chewing electrical cables 

can cause electric shock or burns to the 

mouth. 

• Be careful if you are using tinsel on your 

tree. If eaten, the tinsel can block your pets 

intestines – we saw several of these last 

Christmas! 

Don’t forget about your RABBITS 

Flystrike is a serious condition in rabbits. 

It occurs mostly in the summer months 

and we see a lot of cases over the holiday 

season as people get really busy and forget 

to regularly check on their pets. 

Flystrike is extremely distressing and it is 

also potentially fatal. It is caused by flies that 

are attracted to damp fur, urine, faeces and 

the odour of the rabbit’s scent. The flies 

will land on the rabbit normally around the 

rabbits rear end and lay their eggs. Within 

a very short time of 2 hours the eggs will 

hatch into maggots which start to feed on 

the rabbits skin. This process happens very 

quickly and is not always caught in time. 

Check your rabbit twice a day and if you 

find a maggot on your rabbit take it to us 

immediately.

•From page 1 

“I started through my 

church, other people were 

doing it so I joined in,” Mr 

Cate said. 

He said it was nice to 

be acknowledged but 

preferred to keep a low 

profile and get on with 

helping the people he had 

made a connection with 

over the years. 

He said he would carry 

on helping them for the 

foreseeable future. 

”But you’ve got to have 

the right heart,” he said. 

Mr Cate was one of four 

recipients of the local hero 

award from the northwest. 

Others included Cilla 

Glasson, of Merivale, who 

also volunteers for 0800 

Hungry, delivering food 

and often gifting toys 

and clothes to struggling 

families every Thursday. 

Bryndwr’s Alan Dickson 

won an award after 

Kerbside public 

holiday collection

volunteering at 

0800 Hungry for eight 

years. 

Gary Linford Watts, 

of Northcote, received 

an award as the project 

manager of SigJaws 

Trust, which supports 

the disadvantaged and 

disabled. 

Mr Linford Watts has 

also been a volunteer 

fireman and is president of 

the Christchurch Savage 

Club. 

Starting this Christmas, you will notice a change with 

your kerbside collection on certain public holidays. 

Wheelie bins will now be collected a day after their 

usual collection day. 

MON TUE WED THU FRI SAT 

• Monday collections will be picked up on Tuesday 

• Tuesday collections will be picked up on Wednesday 

• Wednesday collections will be picked up on Thursday 

• Thursday collections will be picked up on Friday 

• Friday collections will be picked up on Saturday 

These changes will only affect Christmas Day, New Years Day, 

Easter Good Friday and ANZAC Day, for all other holidays 

collection will continue as normal. 

Thanks to everyone who gave feedback on this through our survey. 

Please ensure wheelie bins are placed at the kerbside by 6am

New fundraiser for historic jetty 

Fire rages, homes at risk 

• By Sarla Donovan 

A NEW fundraising appeal to 

help save the historic Governors 

Bay jetty has been launched this 

week. 

The ‘sponsor a plank’ initiative 

aims to raise $750,000, which together 

with funds already raised 

by the Jetty Restoration Trust 

and committed 

by the city 

council, will 

bring the total 

to around $1.35 

million. 

People, 

families, or 

businesses who 

donate $500 

Louisa Eades 

or more will be recognised as 

“Plank Sponsors”, with a plaque 

engraved with their name or 

short message on a plank on the 

new Jetty. 

Trust secretary Louisa Eades 

has also written a piece for the 

New Zealand Women’s Weekly 

about how the jetty was rescued 

and the journey so far towards 

restoration. 

Her story will be published 

early next year. 

She’s hoping the publicity 

will broaden the appeal beyond 

Christchurch. 

The jetty has been a feature 

of the bay since 1874 and is an 

important part of Canterbury 

history. 

Before the road over Dyers 

Pass made the bay accessible 

by vehicle, twice-daily steam 

launches ran from Lyttelton to 

Governors Bay. 

These boats dropped passengers 

off on the Jetty to spend 

the day picnicking or visiting the 

“pleasure gardens” at the Ocean 

View Hotel (now Governors Bay 

Hotel.) 

“I just can’t imagine it not

initiative has been launched

Bay Jetty.

being there,” said Ms Eades. “It’s 

like the Cathedral in the square 

or the Esplanade in Sumner. 

It’s just part of the bay, and an 

important historical feature.” 

At just under 300 metres long, 

the jetty is the same length as the 

New Brighton pier, but low to the 

water and timber-made. 

“It’s an amazing place to walk 

along or boat to,” said trust 

chairman Simon Mortlock. 

The city council last year 

agreed to temporarily sell ownership 

for $1 to the Governors Bay 

Jetty Restoration Trust who will 

repair it before returning it back 

to the city council. 

The repair is expected to cost 

up to $3 million.

Tenders close for 

Halswell skate parks 

Historic cafe gets 

new lease of life 

•From page 1 

It was originally home to David 

McKay, an immigration officer 

with the Canterbury Provincial 

Government who also administered 

the Charitable Aid Fund. 

Mr McKay defaulted on the 

mortgage repayments on the 

house after he was charged with 

embezzlement, lost his job and his 

wife left him. 

The house was bought by 

Georgiana Thomson, the widow 

of accountant William Thomson, 

who was a captain with the 

Canterbury Yeomanry Calvary, 

Provincial Auditor and Official 

Assignee at the time of his death 

in 1866. 

She named the two-storey 

weatherboard house Cardowan 

after a suburb in Glasgow. 

When Georgiana Thompson 

died she passed the house to 

her son, John. He had arrived in 

Canterbury as a child with his 

parents and spent his early years 

working on sheep stations before 

taking up his father’s profession. 

In his retirement John Thomson 

took up walking long distances 

on the Port Hills and in 1931 he 

gifted 63 acres of land on the Port 

Hills (now known as Thomson 

Park) to the public. 

The city council’s heritage team 

is helping the new owners compile 

a detailed history of the property, 

email any information or photos 

to heritage@ccc.govt.nz. 

• By Emily O’Connell 

THE TWO proposed Halswell 

skate parks are one step closer 

with the deadline for tender 

applications closing yesterday. 

After three years of planning, 

the Halswell Domain and 

Knights Stream skate parks 

are expected to be ready by late 

April, instead of January as 

initially planned. 

City council head of parks 

Brent Smith said after the 

resource consents were lodged, 

the skate parks went out for 

tender on November 16. 

The consent process took 

longer than expected and, as 

a result, construction of both 

parks has been delayed. 

Halswell Residents Association 

secretary David Hawke 

said the skate parks are fantastic 

and they will have a good impact 

on the community. 

“If you look at one of the 

things the Halswell Hub is doing, 

it’s got a different type of 

outreach I suppose, for young 

people in our community and 

the skate parks fit into that bigger 

picture,” he said. 

Mr Hawke said parents are 

currently having to drive their 

children to Prebbleton to skate. 

“You see people doing what 

they’re not supposed to be 

doing, which is sort of bounce 

their scooters and skateboards 

about in the supermarket 

carparks and so on,” he said.

PATHWAYS 

TO SUCCESS 

2018 Student Leaders: 1st Row: Vai Mariner, Crystal Mehlhopt, Jenna Hollis, Leeah Mullany, Sarah Moana Wooff-Smyth 

2nd Row: Eden Pettigrew, Adonai Schwenke, Anaru Gray, Cole Barrie

Principal’s Report 

Warm greetings to 

the Linwood College 

community. Kia ora 

koutou. Talofa lava. 

Kia orana. Malo e 

lelei. Bula. Fakaalofa 

atu. Namaste. 

Kumusta. 

Linwood College 

enjoys celebrating 

student success in all its forms so our 

congratulations to the prizewinners 

highlighted on this page. I would like to also 

congratulate all Junior students who were 

awarded prizes at the 2017 Junior Prize Giving 

ceremony held on 11th December. 

Our community views education as 

the wellbeing of the whole person. All 

developmentally positive experiences enrich 

our students’ understanding of whom they 

are and broaden their outlook. They nurture 

students’ classroom focus by contextualising 

their learning and sowing the seeds of positive 

ambition. 

Linwood College believes in a “pathwayed 

Other Major Award Winners 

curriculum”. This means the school, students 

and families knowing: 

1. Students’ learning and skills as they come 

into LC from our partner primary schools 

and building on these successes 

2. How the learning at LC connects to what 

the students want to do when they leave 

school. “What are my post-school pathways 

and how does my LC help me achieve these 

pathways?” 

In this way learning is meaningful to the 

individual and strengths-based. At Linwood 

the individual matters. 

Finally, the Education Review Office reviewed 

Linwood College in the second half of term 3. 

The confirmed report is now public and I am 

delighted to say that the school is back on the 

three year return cycle. It is a testament to 

everyone’s collective vision and positive work 

for our school: BOT, staff, students, whanau, 

partner schools and community. 

Nga mihi nui and best wishes for the festive 

season and summer holiday.

Year 10s get Enterprising 

Last week ninety Year 10 students worked 

hard for three days in the school gym to create 

business ideas. Two presenters from the Young 

Enterprise Trust came to the school to lead the 

students through the process of creating and 

developing businesses. On Wednesday, the 

students were put into groups of between five and 

ten students and given the challenge of creating 

a new business based on modern technology. By 

Friday, the students were ready to present their 

ideas and associated business plans to judges 

from the local business community. 

Here Sina Sila and her team mates are presenting 

their idea ‘Zoinks’ - an app that stops you from making 

unnecessary purchases to Gyaney from BP. 

2017 Senior Prizegiving Awards 

Early in Term 3, the school’s senior 

students, teachers and families 

gathered in the school hall to celebrate 

the year’s successes. Prize winners

Shops bursting with 

festive gift ideas 

Finding those special gifts and stocking 

fillers as well as the Christmas treats for 

the table is so easy at our city’s malls and 

shopping centres, where the shops are 

bursting with festive merchandise. 

Every woman likes to receive bodypampering 

gifts, and there is a huge 

selection of these priced to suit all budgets 

at the many pharmacies and gift shops 

around the city. Perfume is another 

favourite and again there is a wide 

selection to choose from, ranging from 

exciting new releases to the well-known 

fragrances that have stood the test of time. 

Lingerie, jewellery, fashion accessories, 

homewares and decor items – there’s no 

end to the ideas for the women on the list. 

The men are equally well catered for, from 

the sophisticated metro-male boyfriends, 

to the car-crazy brothers and the DIY

The countdown to the big day is well underway, so making 

up the Christmas gift list will now be a top priority… if you 

haven’t already done so.

and dads. Choose from clothing, books, 

tools, personal grooming items and 

gadgets to put a smile on their face on 

Christmas morning. 

Speaking of smiles, nothing gives families 

more joy than seeing the excitement 

of the children opening their presents. 

Whether they are delivered by Santa or 

snuck under the tree by mum and dad, 

the cuddly toys, games, dolls and building 

blocks, the candy canes, toy trucks and 

pretty dresses currently filling the shops 

will bring squeals of sheer happiness from 

the smallest family members. 

The tweens and teens usually have their 

own ideas about what they want for

FLAME FILES 

Fire warning as 

summer starts 

Cashmere win close final 

to claim water polo title 

• By Andrew King 

CASHMERE High’s year 10 

water polo team won the B 

grade title at the South Island 

junior secondary schools 

championships. 

Playing Papanui High in 

the final, they narrowly won 

1-0 thanks to a solid defensive 

performance from Rosie Howard, 

which saw her named most 

valuable player in the decider. 

Heading into the last quarter 

at 0-0, it took a moment of 

SPORTS 

brilliance by Holly Cartwright 

who scored after intercepting 

a loose pass from Papanui’s 

goalkeeper. 

The teams met in the roundrobin 

with Cashmere coming out 

on top 4-2. 

Cashmere coach Tom 

Wilkinson said both teams had 

a better understanding of each

other’s play which led to a much 

tighter encounter in the final. 

He said after a hiatus, the sport 

is making a comeback at the 

school. “We have not had a water 

polo programme for 10 years 

until we started it again last year 

with this group of girls,” he said. 

“We had three teams this year 

so it is increasing in popularity.” 

“This is also due to the work 

of St Martins and Christchurch 

South Intermediate, who are in 

our school zone (and) have been 

pushing it at year 7 and 8.” 

heating up early 

• By Mark Thomas – fire risk 

management officer 

AS THE summer heats up, so 

does the number of calls our 

troops are attending. 

It’s normal to have about 100 

calls in a week. 

Weather events, of course, add 

to the number. 

So the 169 incidents attended 

last week can at least in part be 

attributed to the weather, or the 

heat, to be more precise. 

A large number of false 

alarms, presumably from fire 

detection systems drooping and 

a large number of ambulance 

assists including, unfortunately, 

several sudden deaths, added to 

the list. 

Also we attended far too many 

grass and skip or bin fires. 

While a few of these are the 

result of accidents most of them 

were lit deliberately. 

Whether it be kids playing or 

malicious fire-starters, the dry 

conditions make all of these 

potentially serious. 

The Governors Bay crew were 

called to the local hotel on December 

2 to what turned out to 

be a patron puffing on a vaping 

cigarette. 

It’s a first for me to see this but 

hardly surprising. 

I followed a car the other day 

with two people both vaping 

and both front windows open. 

The clouds of vapour they 

were seemingly choreographing 

erupted from both sides of the 

car like whistles from a steam 

train. I guess it’s better for them 

than the alternative! 

Sprinklers in buildings are 

expensive. But one operating in 

Pak’nSave in the Hornby Hub 

on December 3 stopped a fire 

from a bakers oven in its tracks. 

The mall re-opened quickly. 

That’s why we love sprinkler 

systems.

From the Board 

As we go to print we are excited to hear 

our new Bishop, Fr Paul Martin SM, 

has been appointed to Christchurch. In 

celebrating the news, a special thank 

you must go to Fr Rick Loughnan for 

his leadership in the interim, to the 

Diocese for its ongoing support and 

we remember Bishop Barry Jones 

with fondness. Bishop-Elect Paul’s 

appointment represents an exciting 

new phase of growth for our 

Catholic community. 

Thank you to our Board of Trustees, 

college and community and members 

of the Marian Foundation for your work 

throughout 2017. 

To our Marian girls – relax and enjoy the 

well-earned break. There are some fantastic 

programmes, and collaborative project 

opportunities planned for 2018. 

And finally, congratulations to our 2017 

Marian College leavers. The gospel values 

– which underpin the special character of 

Marian College – will guide you well into 

the future. We wish you all the very best 

and please keep in touch. 

Wishing you good health and blessings 

this Christmas.

Georgiana Vaughan-Walker (right) Y12 

has received the St John Grand Prior 

Award in a ceremony hosted by the 

Governor-General in Dunedin. 

The Grand Prior Award is the ultimate 

award, other than for bravery, for St John 

Cadets. Georgiana was one of 90 cadets 

- including former Marian student Steph 

Wessing (left) - from around New Zealand 

to receive the prestigious award. 

‘I love learning new leadership skills and 

I’m really thankful I joined St John, as 

otherwise I wouldn’t have considered the 

Navy as a career path,’ she says. 

Georgiana’s plans include a gap year, 

travel, and a career in the Navy 

as a medic. 

The opportunities and benefits of an innercity 

campus are many for Marian College 

students. 

From Year 11, students can choose to 

earn credits at Ara Institute of Canterbury, 

making the most of excellent facilities and 

teaching expertise – just across the road. 

Recently, three Marian students received

The full list of senior major prize

Marian College Principal Mary-Lou 

Davidson says as well as reflecting the 

opportunities students have in a wide 

range of areas of the school, awards are a 

reflection of hard work and dedication. 

“Congratulations to all the students 

who have been acknowledged,” Mrs 

Davidson says.

Whatever we want to be... 

Young Māori Marian 

College students 

participating in the 

Manukura programme 

are realising if they put 

their minds to it – they 

can do and be whatever 

they want. 

The programme is a 

partnership between 

Ngāi Tūāhuriri, Te 

Tapuae o Rehua 

and seven eastern 

Christchurch secondary 

schools and aims to 

ensure young Māori see 

themselves as leaders 

of the future. 

Participating student Rawinia Tahi (Ngāti 

Maniapoto) says she has learnt a lot. 

Summer scarfie 

Year 11 Marian College student Keely 

Stuart (Te Aitanga-A-Mahaki) has received 

a Ngā Mahi-a-Ringa Pūtaiao Scholarship 

from Otago University. Keely will be 

participating in a week-long Hands-on 

at Otago programme during the summer 

holidays to experience being a science 

student on campus. 

Keely says she is very excited to be 

accepted onto the fully-funded programme. 

‘I’m interested in a career in health, 

science and physiology so it will be a great 

opportunity to see what Otago University is 

like,’ she says. 

‘Recognising my gifts and 

understanding how I can use them to 

help others, was the biggest realisation 

for me,’ Rawinia says. 

Zonta Awards 

The Zonta Awards are a celebration of the 

highest sports achievers - leaders in their 

sport locally and often competitors on the 

world stage. 

This year, three Marian College students 

were finalists at the Zonta Sports Awards. 

Renee Rae won the top award for her 

contribution to netball umpiring. A judge 

said Renee follows a long tradition of 

Marian students who have won the award, 

and there was something very special about 

Marian College and its tradition of service. 

Rebecca Lake (Ngāi Tahu, Ngāti Irakehu) 

and Millicent Smith (Ngāpuhi) were both 

nominated for outstanding achievement 

for their New Zealand representation

Adding to opportunities in Halswell 

Halswell 

Community 

Project’s 

chairwoman 

Chrys Horn 

talks about 

the Nga 

Puna Wai 

Sports Hub and what it’ll 

mean to the Halswell and 

surrounding communities 

Great sports opportunities – 

both formal and informal and 

more spaces which can be used 

by our community are two 

things that we can expect as Nga 

Puna Wai develops. 

Halswell is already a great 

place for those interested in sport 

and the developments in Nga 

Puna Wai will add in athletics, 

tennis and hockey to the 

opportunities that already exist 

in the area. 

The addition of a pavilion with 

café and bar facilities is also a 

bonus for those who will use 

SPORTS: An artist’s impression of the boulevard at the Ngā Puna Wai Sports Hub. 

the site for. We understand also 

that the pavilion will have space 

available for the community to 

hire for their own events. 

For Halswell people there 

will also be great walking and 

cycling opportunities as well as 

community sports fields that can 

be used for casual games. Many 

people already use the area for 

walking and this will not change. 

We are hopeful that there 

will be great cycle paths that 

will connect from Aidanfield 

through to Curletts Rd 

and provide a safe and fun 

way for Hillmorton High 

School students to bike to school. 

In addition they could also 

provide a way to connect Hoon 

Hay and Halswell Rd through to 

the cycleway alongside the new 

Southern Motorway. 

It’s likely it will also be great 

for local businesses – especially 

those that will be setting up in 

the new Halswell Commons 

subdivision. The Halswell 

Community Project is hopeful 

they will be able to set up a 

local weekly farmers market 

when these developments are all 

complete. As the area grows this 

facility will be a wonderful 

addition to the recreation 

opportunities available 

in Halswell, Wigram and 

Hillmorton and Spreydon. 

Pupils turn hand-made 

goods into cold hard cash 

• By Emily O’Connell 

ST BERNADETTE’S School 

pupils turned hand-made and 

secondhand goods into money at 

their market day last Thursday. 

All 140 pupils, from new 

entrants through to the year 8 

students, were involved in the 

market. 

“We believe that every child 

FUN: KiwiCan’s Reece 

Bonner under fire at the 

school’s market day. 

has something worthwhile to 

offer. One of the children in our 

school is blind, he was able to 

contribute by brailing labels for 

bookmarks,” assistant principal 

Lyn Satherley said. 

Miss Satherley said each class 

decided on a reward they would 

like to have at the end of the 

school term with the money they 

raised. 

She said classes then began 

thinking about, and researching 

products or services they could 

sell or offer at the school market. 

“Having a market offers an 

authentic purpose for hands on 

learning, across the curriculum; 

science, maths, literacy, health, 

the arts and in the key competencies,” 

Miss Satherley said. 

Sweets, bookmarks, secondhand 

items, stress balls, games, 

cards and sausages all went up 

for sale. 

The school also had a cafe, 

face painting station, hair colour 

station, traditional games, and a 

water balloon throw. 

“Having all of the children involved 

in the market allows them 

to take ownership over their 

learning and working as a team,” 

Miss Satherley said. 

She said any additional profit 

from the market will go towards 

a community day at the end of 

the term. 

St Bernadette’s hold a market 

day every second year.

CHRISTMAS HAM ON THE BONE GLAZED WITH PINEAPPLE 

Ingredients 

4kg ham on the bone 

1 cup canned crushed pineapple, 

drained 

1 cup brown sugar, tightly packed 

1 tsp ground ginger 

Directions 

Preheat the oven to 180 deg 

C. Run a knife around the shank 

end of the ham. Carefully slice 

under the edge of the rind at the 

base of the ham. Use your fingers 

to ease between the rind and the 

fat. Pull to gently remove the 

rind. With a sharp knife, score 

the fat with 3mm-deep cuts in a 

diamond pattern. Place ham in a 

foil-lined oven pan large enough 

to catch any glaze that drips as it 

cooks. Surround ham with one 

cup cold water. 

Drain pineapple and combine 

with glaze ingredients in a bowl. 

Smear glaze over scored fat of 

ham. 

Bake ham for 40-45min, 

basting at regular intervals until 

the glaze has caramelised to a 

golden brown. 

Rest the baked ham for at least 

15min before carving. Sliced ham 

can either be served hot or at 

room temperature. 

ROSE PETAL MERINGUE WITH SUMMER BERRIES AND STRAWBERRY SAUCE 

Ingredients 

5 eggs 

300g caster sugar 

1 Tbsp cornflour 

1 Tbsp dried rose petals 

300 ml cream 

250g blueberries 

250g raspberries 

1 lime 

250g strawberries 

Directions 

Preheat the oven to 200 deg C 

and line a flat baking sheet with 

non-stick baking paper. Using 

an electric beater, whip the egg 

whites until firm, then whisk in 

the sugar. Fold in the cornflour 

and rose petals and place large 

spoonfuls of the mixture onto 

the baking sheet. Bake for 40- 

45min. 

When the meringue tops are 

crisp, remove them from the 

oven and leave to cool. For the 

sauce, puree the strawberries 

and lime juice in a blender. If the 

flavour is too sharp, add a little 

icing sugar. 

Whip the cream until it looks 

soft. Mix the berries in a bowl. 

Place a meringue on each plate 

with a pile of cream next to it,

FOCUS ON HEALTH 

Miracle weight loss fruit 

An extract of a small pumpkin-like fruit 

called Garcinia Cambogia from India & 

Asia has shown itself to greatly assist weight 

management & overall health. In fact many 

have found it to increase fat loss by 2 to 3 

times greater than normal. T.V. Dr. Oz has 

said it is the most effective & fastest working 

natural supplement to support weight loss. 

Even without exercise & diet changes 

many have found it beneficial, although even 

better & quicker results are often obtained 

with extra exercise & an improved diet. 

The extract of this amazing fruit is called 

Hydroxycitric Acid (HCA) or CitriMax. 

Research has shown HCA to help suppress 

the appetite, reduce cravings, feel fuller for 

longer, increase energy levels, help prevent 

fat from being made & stored in the body, 

increase lean muscle mass, increase 

serotonin levels in the brain that 

help control mood & sleep 

(great for emotional eaters), 

improve cholesterol levels 

that may help reduce 

the chances of strokes 

& cardiovascular 

disease, help prevent 

sugar spikes as well 

as other health 

benefits. 

It is considered 

a very safe 

supplement 

(although check first 

if you are on medication) 

as it has been used for centuries 

as a flavouring agent & digestive aid. 

To obtain reliable results it is important 

SUPER CitriMax 

CLINICAL STRENGTH GARCINIA CAMBOGIA 

According to Dr. Oz an extract of Garcinia Cambogia, (a small 

pumpkin-like fruit) called CitriMax is the most effective & fastest 

working natural supplement to support weight loss. However 

it is only the clinically researched Super CitriMax that contains a 

special blend that offers superior absorption & proven 

results compared to other non-Super CitriMax brands. 

CliniCAlly SHOwn tO: 

• Helps stop fat being made & stored in the body 

• Suppresses appetite & cravings. Feel fuller for longer 

• Increases energy levels & lean muscle mass 

• Increases Serotonin levels in the brain, especially good for 

emotional eaters. Serotonin may also improve mood & sleep. 

• Improves cholesterol & blood lipid levels 

Swanson Super CitriMax is a unique patented extract that 

is highly bio-available & clinically proven for reliable results. 

to take a product that contains a 

standardized extract of 60% HCA & also 

take the recommended amount as used in 

the clinical research. Some supplements also 

contain ChromeMate, a well-researched 

form of niacin-bound chromium to help 

improve the results even more.

Dilo Oil – The Remarkable 

Skin Rejuvenator 

Until Rachel 

Hunter’s popular 

TV series “TOUR 

OF BEAUTY” Dilo 

Oil was relatively 

unknown, being one 

of the best-kept secrets 

of the Pacific Islands. It 

may however be the number 

one natural beauty oil available 

as it possesses powerful natural skin 

regeneration and healing properties. 

According to ethnobotanist Chris 

Kilham, Dilo (pronounced dee-lo) 

Oil is a powerful skin regenerator as 

it is one of the most effective agents 

in promoting the regeneration and 

formation of new tissue, thereby 

accelerating wound healing and 

the growth of healthy skin. Dilo 

Oil is super-absorbing and can 

penetrate all three layers of the 

skin, offering exceptional cell 

hydration and regeneration. 

As well as this, Dilo Oil has 

potent anti-inflammatory, 

antimicrobial, antifungal and 

antioxidant properties. 

Traditionally, Dilo Oil is used to keep the 

skin young and youthful and for just about 

any skin complaint. Some of the conditions 

for which it is considered helpful include 

abrasions, cuts and cracks, acne and 

acne scars, pimples, blemishes, stretch 

marks, wrinkles, blisters, burns (including 

chemical and radiation), diabetic sores, 

rashes, shaving irritation, dry or scaly skin,

CASPA! 

FRESH: Tomato plants ready to leave Rolleston. 

Rolleston Prison donates 

tomato plants to 

social housing tenants 

MORE than 5000 tomato 

plants have been handed 

over to the Ōtautahi Community 

Housing Trust to 

be donated to city housing 

tenants. 

The plants are an annual 

project at Rolleston Prison 

and are grown from seed 

to plant ready for home 

gardens. 

The plants take eight to 

ten weeks from planting 

and germination until 

they are ready to be collected. 

“This project gives 

prisoners an opportunity 

to give something back 

and provides people in 

the community with the 

means to grow healthy 

food for themselves and 

their family,” said Rolleston 

Prison director Mike 

Howson. 

“Many of the prisoners 

know what it is like to 

struggle financially and 

they enjoy the opportunity 

to do something for the 

community, especially 

near to Christmas. 

Seeing the plants leave 

the prison for a person’s 

garden means a great deal 

to the men involved,” he 

said. 

More than 40,000 

tomato plants have been 

cultivated and donated 

since the Tomatoes for 

Tenants Project began 

in 2008 and the annual 

delivery of the tomatoes is 

highly anticipated by the 

city housing tenants. 

Rick Fraser of Ōtautahi 

said the trust values the 

partnership with Rolleston 

Prison and many tenants 

appreciate the plants and 

save a space in their gardens 

for them. 

Leftover plants are gifted 

to schools and community 

groups. 

CASPA (Creative After School 

Programmed Activities) incorporating 

PAPA JACKS offers children the 

opportunity to be creative, make new 

friends and try new experiences all within a 

safe, nurturing environment. CASPA offers 

working parents an affordable after school 

and school holiday programme that their 

kids just love! 

CASPA attributes its success to the 

variety of activities on offer as well as the 

convenience and affordability for parents. 

CASPA kids enjoy an exciting range of 

activities including sports, music, games, 

drama, arts and craft as well as fun trips. 

Previous themes and activities have included

Time to check your tyres before 

heading away on holiday 

As the holidays approach and plans are 

made for summer road trips, now is the 

time to check that your tyres are in good 

condition, says Julie Hurst of JCM Direct, 

the tyre specialists in Birmingham Drive. 

Julie and her husband Athol own the 

business, with Julie running it on a dayto-day 

basis. 

Now that WOFs on later model vehicles 

are issued every 12 months, drivers may 

be unaware that their tyres are becoming 

worn, Julie says. 

“Come in and see us. We offer free tyre 

checks, so you can head away on holiday 

knowing they are roadworthy and your 

family is safe.” 

If tyres do need replacing, JCM Direct 

offers a wide variety of quality brands at 

very competitive prices. They have new 

tyres for everything from cars, vans and 

4WDs, to caravans, ride-on mowers, 

wheelbarrows and trailers. As well as an 

excellent selection of quality second-hand 

tyres for most vehicles, they hold a vast 

selection of 4WD tyres in stock. 

JCM Direct also offer puncture repairs, 

supply and fitting of new and secondhand 

alloy wheels, wheel alignments, 

replacement factory steel rims and rim 

repairs. 

“We also specialise in old rims from 

the 1930s to 1970s for people with older 

caravans and trailers – the modern rims 

won’t fit those,” Julie says. 

Finance is available with Q Card or 

Farmers Card. 

JCM Direct is located on the corner 

of Birmingham Drive and Hands Road. 

They are open Monday to Friday, 9.30am- 

5pm and Saturday 9.30am-1pm. Phone 

343-0099, 027 22 63 805.

Public Notice 

Is your property 

safe from fire? 

Here’s a guide to help understand 

the risk in your area 

During the fire season, there are some risks you need to know about to help keep you, 

your family and your property safe. 

Throughout New Zealand, there are different levels of risk, depending on where you 

live and what the area around you is like. As we build more and more homes in 

previously rural areas, the level of risk is different to properties built in a more urban 

setting. Make sure you check your property and are aware of your surroundings so 

you can be best prepared this fire season. 

Steps you need to take to keep your property safe 

1 

2 

3 

Make sure you have a ‘safe zone’ around your property 

- Clear vegetation close to your home. This could fuel a fire if one started. 

- Choose plants with low flammability – native plants are often better. 

- Keep your lawns mowed and green. 

- Don’t store firewood close to the house. 

- Clear your gutters of dry leaves. 

- Be careful when using any mechanical equipment in dry conditions. 

Have an escape plan and an agreed safe meeting place 

- Go to www.escapeplanner.co.nz to make a plan to get out of your 

home safely and agree a safe meeting place. Practise this regularly. 

- Think about where you will meet if you need to evacuate the area. 

- Have an emergency evacuation kit in case you need to leave quickly. 

- If in doubt, leave early. 

Good access for firefighters 

- Fire trucks need a lot of space to manoeuvre. Make sure there are no 

overgrown trees or other obstacles that may prevent access to your 

property. 

- We can pump from water supplies such as a pond, pool or tank. 

- Make sure your address or RAPID number is clearly visible. 

The fire risk applies to everyone, no matter where you live.

year, the joys and the challenges. I have 

created a concert that will include the angelic 

voices of children singing which is both pure 

and for me what Christmas is all about.”
