RIVER CARE groups responsible<br />

for the annual Mother of All Clean<br />

Up events on the Heathcote River<br />

are applauding the city council<br />

for reinstating rubbish booms in<br />

Woolston.<br />

The three groups – Avon-<br />

Heathcote Estuary Ihutai Trust,<br />

Ōpāwaho Heathcote River<br />

Network and Avon-Ōtākaro<br />

Network – lobbied the city council<br />

to reintroduce the booms following<br />

successful river clean up events<br />

in which tonnes of rubbish was<br />

collected.<br />

The booms will also be placed in<br />

the Avon River at Dallington.<br />

The booms gather floating debris<br />

as it travels downstream from the<br />

city. It is then harvested by City<br />

Care and sent to landfill.<br />

Rubbish booms were previously<br />

deployed in this way but were removed<br />

following the earthquakes.<br />

“Reintroducing the booms will<br />

greatly reduce the amount of rubbish<br />

ending up along the edges of<br />

the rivers and estuary,” said Avon-<br />

Heathcote Estuary Ihutai Trust<br />

co-ordinator Tanya Jenkins.<br />

from the editor’s desk<br />

ANYTHING THAT helps the water<br />

quality of our rivers has to be applauded.<br />

That’s why it’s great news that – finally<br />

– booms are back in the Heathcote (and<br />

Avon, too) as our page 1 article reveals.<br />

The Heathcote boom in Woolston is<br />

designed to catch, contain and hold debris that pollutes our<br />

waterways until the boys and girls from City Care get there.<br />

The reintroduction of the booms post-quake has been because<br />

of lobbying from three very worthwhile groups – Avon-Heathcote<br />

Estuary Ihutai Trust, Ōpāwaho Heathcote River Network<br />

and Avon-Ōtākaro Network.<br />

tion Their datE] bid to restore and develop the city’s waterways cannot<br />

be underestimated. The people in these groups are tireless workers,<br />

who fight tooth and nail for the city’s future.<br />

All power to them. - Barry Clarke<br />

Cancer survivor cycles with pros<br />

• By Sarla Donovan<br />

AT 73, Rob Dally is looking<br />

forward to riding with top New<br />

Zealand cycling pros like Jack<br />

Bauer and George Bennett.<br />

The cancer survivor and keen<br />

cyclist is taking part in the<br />

Bupa Challenge Tour on Friday<br />

– Santos Tour Down Under’s<br />

annual mass-participation ride<br />

in Adelaide.<br />

At the event, recreational<br />

cyclists get to ride on the same<br />

stage as the world’s top riders<br />

on a Union Cycliste Internationale<br />

world tour route. The<br />

competitors also raise money to<br />

help fund cancer research.<br />

Mr Dally was diagnosed with<br />

prostate cancer seven years ago<br />

and had a radical prostatectomy.<br />

But he fought through<br />

it and has been cancer-free since<br />

the early diagnosis operation.<br />

He now rides to celebrate this<br />

achievement.<br />

“I’m keen to ride a stage of the<br />

tour that the elites do straight<br />

after me and I’m keen to support<br />

a good charity,” Mr Dally<br />

said.<br />

The Halswell resident flew<br />

to Adelaide yesterday with his<br />

wife Jan as his support crew.<br />

He said he was looking forward<br />

to meeting other passionate<br />

cyclists. Clocking up about<br />

PARTNERS: Keen cyclists Rob and Jan Dally are heading to an event<br />

in Adelaide next week where cancer survivor Rob will cycle on the<br />

same course as some of the world’s best.<br />

PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER<br />

400km a week on average, Mr<br />

Dally regularly rides and drinks<br />

coffee with the Magpies cycling<br />

group. “You get hooked,” he<br />

says. “There’s a real camaraderie.”<br />

The former city council<br />

manager used to run for Papanui<br />

TocH but took up cycling<br />

13 years ago when his<br />

dodgy knee forced him<br />

to stop running.<br />

He says cycling is<br />

more exciting: “You’re<br />

going faster on two<br />

wheels – around corners,<br />

down hills.”<br />

In 2011, he was preparing<br />

for a 130km road<br />

race and was as fit as<br />

he’d ever been, when his<br />

surgeon called him in<br />

and said he had cancer.<br />

“It was pretty awful really<br />

. . . pretty sobering.”<br />

But he counts himself<br />

as one of the lucky ones<br />

and credits the experience<br />

with changing his<br />

thinking.<br />

“Do what you want to<br />

do today, don’t leave it<br />

till tomorrow. Don’t take<br />

things or anybody for<br />

granted.”<br />

Mrs Dally also took up<br />

cycling about same time<br />

as the cancer diagnosis<br />

and now the couple ride<br />

and race together.<br />

Last year, they<br />

rode across France to<br />

celebrate 50 years of<br />

marriage. “Those are the<br />

sorts of things you do when you<br />

can and count your blessings<br />

you’re able to.”<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

Pet dog:<br />

I’m not a<br />

burglar<br />

• By Andrew King<br />

A FAMILY feared they were in<br />

the midst of a potential burglary<br />

when they heard a tapping<br />

sound on the front door of their<br />

Sydenham home at about 4am.<br />

The police were called to the<br />

Seddon St property on Thursday –<br />

but the source of the noise was not<br />

as sinister as first feared.<br />

The family’s dog was outside<br />

wanting to get back in and was<br />

tapping on the front door.<br />

The family quickly called police<br />

back, who were on-route flashing<br />

lights and all, to let them know it<br />

was their dog.<br />

“They were stood down before<br />

they got there as she relayed it was<br />

her other dog (she has two) doing<br />

the tapping,” a police communications<br />

spokeswoman said.<br />

“The dog was not ‘K9d’<br />

(arrested).”<br />

About 5mm of rain fell between<br />

2am and 4am in the city, which<br />

could have been a contributing<br />

factor to the dog wanting to come<br />

inside.<br />

It is unclear what the other<br />

dog’s involvement in the incident<br />

was.<br />

Red zone rabbits<br />

spared . . . for now<br />

Former Linwood league player<br />

makes another big splash<br />

• By Julia Evans<br />

FORMER TOP Linwood rugby<br />

league player Mike Brown<br />

and his daughters found a<br />

way to cool off over the<br />

holidays.<br />

Mr Brown, along with Jaz and<br />

Montana (left), 14, were spotted<br />

by the Pegasus Post near the<br />

Christchurch Yacht Club and<br />

duly played ball for a photo.<br />

But Mr Brown said it wouldn’t<br />

be a proper summer without<br />

loading two of his daughters, a<br />

few towels and some food into<br />

the car to head off to Moncks<br />

Bay.<br />

The afternoon out was one<br />

last hurrah on his holiday<br />

break.<br />

“You’ve just got to spend<br />

summer around the water, it<br />

wouldn’t be right otherwise,” he<br />

said.<br />

Jaz seemed a bit of a water<br />

baby, but the cool temperature<br />

meant it took a little more<br />

convincing before Montana hit<br />

the water.<br />

• By Bridget Rutherford<br />

RABBITS THAT gained quite<br />

the audience for living in the<br />

middle of busy roundabouts in<br />

the red zone have been spared -<br />

for now.<br />

More than 20 rabbits, some of<br />

which are black in colour, have<br />

been spotted on the roundabout<br />

at Anzac Drive, Travis and<br />

Frosts Rd, and the junction of<br />

Anzac Drive and New Brighton<br />

Rd.<br />

But they caused traffic concerns,<br />

with motorists driving<br />

slowly to look at them and others<br />

parking and crossing Anzac<br />

Drive to get to the roundabout.<br />

In November, the New Zealand<br />

Transport Agency said the<br />

highway maintenance team was<br />

looking to put a rabbit control<br />

operation in place to deal with<br />

the safety issue.<br />

That may have included culling<br />

the rabbits, or catching and<br />

releasing them elsewhere. The<br />

idea sparked outrage, with many<br />

saying to leave the bunnies<br />

alone.<br />

But it appears the bunnies will<br />

likely be able to live out their<br />

days on their roundabouts.<br />

“At this stage the transport<br />

agency is not proposing to do<br />

anything about the rabbits<br />

which are sometimes seen on<br />

the state highway roundabouts<br />

through Brighton/Burwood,” an<br />

NZTA spokeswoman told the<br />

Pegasus Post.<br />

“We continue to advise people<br />

not to be distracted while driving<br />

and to put their own and<br />

other road users’ safety first.”<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

New Brighton ANZ to close<br />

• By Andrew King<br />

NEW BRIGHTON residents<br />

have been dealt another blow as a<br />

second bank announces it will be<br />

permanently closing its doors.<br />

ANZ on Seaview Rd will<br />

amalgamate with The Palms<br />

branch in Shirley on <strong>January</strong> 26,<br />

meaning the area will only have<br />

one bank left - New Brighton NZ<br />

Post & Kiwibank in the Brighton<br />

Mall.<br />

It comes after Westpac<br />

announced last year it will<br />

be closing its doors in New<br />

Brighton, mid-February.<br />

An ANZ spokesman told Star<br />

Media a 20 per cent decline in<br />

transactions over the past two<br />

years at the New Brighton site<br />

was the main reason the two<br />

branches will join.<br />

Christchurch East MP Poto<br />

Williams posted the news on her<br />

Facebook page, which gained a<br />

swift and angry response.<br />

One person replied to her post<br />

saying: “What can we do as a<br />

community do to stop all this,<br />

everything is being done behind<br />

closed doors, no thoughts to the<br />

community at all.”<br />

Bin Inn New Brighton<br />

owner Nikki Griffin said: “As a<br />

business owner that uses ANZ<br />

not impressed will look at my<br />

options and haven’t been told by<br />

them (sic).”<br />

Mrs Williams said it was a<br />

blow to a community working<br />

hard to get back on its feet.<br />

“I have completely lost faith in<br />

corporates because they lost faith<br />

in us,” she said.<br />

“We are all working so hard<br />

to get the area back on its feet<br />

but this is out of line of where<br />

we are heading and a complete<br />

lack of faith in the suburb of New<br />

Brighton.”<br />

New Brighton Business<br />

and Landowners Association<br />

manager Paul Lonsdale said<br />

it was a sad decision. “On one<br />

hand, you can understand it<br />

but you have to look at the<br />

demographics of the area. There<br />

are a lot of elderly people out here<br />

and some of them are not that<br />

mobile,” he said.<br />

An ANZ spokesman said most<br />

New Brighton customers already<br />

use other branches.<br />

It will install a SmartATM<br />

where customers can make<br />

deposits, withdrawals and do<br />

account transfers.<br />

Rehoming unwanted and<br />

With the SPCA and<br />

other organisations<br />

rehoming hundreds<br />

of animals this<br />

summer, reporter<br />

Emily O’Connell<br />

checks out some of<br />

the potential pets<br />

desperately in need<br />

of some love and<br />

attention<br />

PASCAL THE cat is looking for<br />

a new home.<br />

And if she gets one, the nineyear-old<br />

will become one of<br />

hundreds of cats rehomed by<br />

the Society for the Prevention of<br />

Cruelty to Animals Canterbury<br />

this summer.<br />

Pascal is an affectionate and<br />

loving animal, according to<br />

SPCA southern region general<br />

manager Barry Helem. But the<br />

furry feline has been without a<br />

home for two months.<br />

Mr Helem said Pascal was<br />

found lost in Ashburton and was<br />

taken to a vet clinic as she had an<br />

injured tongue and some dental<br />

issues.<br />

She was collected by the<br />

SPCA ambulance and had a few<br />

teeth removed as well as other<br />

treatments to help her heal.<br />

Pascal then went to a foster<br />

home where her foster parents<br />

said she loved “rolling around,<br />

chilling out in front of the fan<br />

and sleeping on the pillows.”<br />

Mr Helem said the perfect<br />

home for Pascal would be one<br />

with no young children, “so<br />

she can live out her golden<br />

years calmly being the centre of<br />

attention.”<br />

“She has two disclaimers –<br />

one regarding the teeth which<br />

WAITING GAME:<br />

Pascal has been<br />

at the SPCA for<br />

two months and is<br />

eagerly awaiting a<br />

new home.<br />

she had removed and another<br />

regarding a historic soft tissue<br />

injury to her right hip,” he said.<br />

Mr Helem said SPCA<br />

Canterbury has had a very high<br />

adoption rate during summer<br />

but also a very high influx of<br />

animals coming into its care.<br />

“Our adoptions for the<br />

November and December period<br />

totalled 3<strong>16</strong>. This included<br />

201 cats and kittens, 14 dogs<br />

and puppies, 59 rabbits and<br />

32 livestock. This total is an 11<br />

per cent increase over the same<br />

period last year,” he said.<br />

Pascal is one of about 20 cats<br />

SPCA Canterbury is currently<br />

trying to rehome.<br />

The organisation has 321<br />

animals on-site at present and<br />

139 animals in foster homes.<br />

Adoption fees for an adult cat<br />

like Pascal are $150, kittens $250,<br />

adult dogs $250, puppies $350<br />

and rabbits $50.<br />

In a bid to continue rehoming<br />

animals, SPCA Canterbury has<br />

a Facebook page which profiles<br />

different animals in their care.<br />

The page has more than 22,000<br />

followers.<br />

SPCA is a charity which<br />

helps protect animals that are<br />

sick, injured, lost, abused or<br />

simply abandoned. Every year,<br />

the 40 SPCA centres across<br />

the country receive more than<br />

45,000 animals through their<br />

doors and 14,000 animal welfare<br />

complaints.<br />

Said Ms Jenkins: “Of course<br />

the best solution would be if<br />

members of the public didn’t<br />

discard rubbish into streets<br />

and gutters in the first place,<br />

as much of it ends up in the<br />

rivers.”<br />

Said Helene Mautner of the<br />

Network: “The rivers and<br />

Another Mother of All Clean<br />

see a significant reduction in<br />

Jenkins.<br />

Spokesman for Avon-<br />

Ōtākaro Network Evan<br />

Smith said: “Floating rubbish<br />

presents a real navigation<br />

hazard to recreational users on<br />

the river and the rubbish along<br />

the banks is a real eyesore that<br />

diminishes the amenity value<br />

of riverside trails. The booms<br />

are placed in bends of the<br />

rivers in such a way that they<br />

don’t impede navigation, a<br />

win-win for all.”<br />

The initiative has the support<br />

of the Christchurch West<br />

Bird’s candy wrapper nest<br />

• By Sarla Donovan<br />

MOST PEOPLE expect bird<br />

nests to be made of twigs, leaves,<br />

moss and grass.<br />

Not snickers bar and peppermint<br />

sweet wrappers – or<br />

fibreglass pink batts.<br />

But that’s exactly what Clydesdale<br />

St, Woolston, resident Tanya<br />

Jenkins<br />

found in her<br />

garden last<br />

week.<br />

A blackbird’s<br />

nest<br />

came down<br />

in the wind<br />

and to Ms<br />

Jenkins’ surprise,<br />

it was<br />

Tanya Jenkins mostly made<br />

of plastic.<br />

She said when she pulled the<br />

nest apart she could distinctly<br />

see the different types of plastic<br />

used.<br />

The Avon Heathcote Estuary<br />

Ihutai Trust co-ordinator has<br />

been “pulling nests” for years.<br />

“It’s a strange hobby I know,<br />

but I’m just so impressed with<br />

the building and design technique<br />

of birds. The time they<br />

spend and skills they have is<br />

amazing. But this particular nest<br />

HIDDEN PLASTIC: This blackbird’s nest contained close to 80 pieces of plastic.<br />

amazed me as the natural building<br />

material used was reduced to<br />

only about 15 per cent, with the<br />

rest being plastic and pink and<br />

wool batts materials.”<br />

Birds seemed to be adapting<br />

nest-building to use more<br />

rubbish and litter, she said, but<br />

wasn’t sure what the explanation<br />

was.<br />

“Bird life adjusting to city life?<br />

Birds being awesome recyclers?<br />

Birds getting lazy? I have no<br />

answers, but it is interesting to<br />

see.”<br />

FOCUS ON HEALTH<br />

Co-Q10 reduces all<br />

causes of mortality<br />

by 50%<br />

Researchers were amazed with the<br />

results of how beneficial a natural nutrient<br />

Coenzyme- Q10 (CoQ10) is to the human<br />

body. Co-Q10 is a natural enzyme in<br />

the body’s cells that is essential for cell<br />

function, energy and survival. The Heart,<br />

Liver, Kidneys and Pancreas require large<br />

amounts of Co-Q10 to function well.<br />

In a recent multi country double blind<br />

trial on the possible benefits of CoQ10 to<br />

protect against heart failure, 420 patients<br />

with severe heart failure were given CoQ10<br />

or a placebo and then followed for two<br />

years. It was found to the amazement of<br />

the researchers the patients who received<br />

the Co-Q10 had a 50% reduction in an<br />

adverse cardiovascular event or death<br />

compared to the placebo patients. Not only<br />

this but the patients on the CoQ10 had a<br />

50% reduction in death not only from<br />

cardiovascular events but from all causes.<br />

According to lead study author Professor<br />

Mortensen this study is the first in over a<br />

decade to show a natural nutrient can<br />

reduce heart failure mortality and CoQ10<br />

should be added as a standard treatment<br />

for anyone with cardiovascular complaints.<br />

It is known that CoQ10 levels decrease in<br />

the heart muscle of patients with heart<br />

failure as severity worsens. Statin drugs<br />

Co-Q10 Vital for Good Health<br />

SUPERIoR ADVANCED NEW FoRMULA<br />

Co-Q10 is a nutrient that is absolutely vital to every cell to perform its function & live. It is essential for<br />

energy production, muscle function & required in sufficient amounts for the heart to keep beating.<br />

A deficiency will affect all organs & sufficient Co-Q10 is considered an important factor in reducing the<br />

chances of chronic disease & reduced life expectancy. Co-Q10 is a fat soluble nutrient & its absorption<br />

is enhanced when it is in a base of fatty acids. Our advanced new formula contains 300mg of naturally<br />

fermented Co-Q10 in a base of fish oil & Bioperine (Black Pepper Extract) for added benefits & to<br />

enhance absorption. It also contains 1000iu of Vitamin D3 that has been<br />

shown to be so beneficial for cardiovascular, bone & immune health.<br />

Co-Q10 Supports:<br />

• Cardiovascular health<br />

• Blood circulation<br />

• Healthy blood pressure<br />

• Energy & endurance<br />

• Muscle function<br />

• Blood sugar regulation<br />

• Weight loss<br />

• Immune function<br />

• Antioxidant protection<br />

• Essential if on Statin drugs<br />

• Enhanced health<br />

are used to treat many patients with<br />

cardiovascular problems but these drugs<br />

also reduce CoQ10 levels further in the<br />

body. Symptoms of low CoQ10 in the body<br />

can be low energy and endurance, muscle<br />

pain, poor memory and concentration and<br />

poor heart function or heart failure.<br />

CoQ10 levels are known to decrease<br />

as we age and many researchers believe<br />

keeping our levels up of this vital nutrient<br />

may help prevent many chronic diseases<br />

including cancer.<br />

Co-Q10 is available as a natural<br />

supplement to support good health.<br />

Centuries old folk remedy<br />

supports good health!<br />

A fermented liquid health tonic offers an<br />

array of powerful health benefits. It is none<br />

other than the popular apple cider vinegar<br />

or ACV. Since the time of Hippocrates –<br />

the “Father of Medicine” – ACV has been<br />

renowned for its curative properties.<br />

In his popular book “ARTHRITIS and<br />

FOLK MEDICINE”, DR. D.C. Jarvis<br />

reports how he found that Vermonters<br />

who regularly consumed ACV and Honey<br />

had excellent health with many putting in<br />

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

when well into their eighties. He also noted<br />

the effects of ACV and H on arthritis to be<br />

remarkable with many patients reporting<br />

almost total relief after taking a course<br />

of the mixture. Dr. Jarvis surmised that<br />

the acid and potassium in cider vinegar<br />

counteracted calcium deposits and helped<br />

the body control calcium use. He also noted<br />

that Vermonters who consumed ACV and<br />

H around meal time had excellent blood<br />

pressure and circulation. The reason he<br />

found was that protein foods thickened the<br />

blood and vinegar thinned it. As the blood<br />

thickens it cannot pass as easily and quickly<br />

through the blood vessels and capillaries.<br />

This poor blood flow would reduce cellular<br />

health by limiting nutrients to the cells as<br />

well as waste elimination from the cells.<br />

To prevent cell damage the body naturally<br />

increases blood pressure but this puts<br />

more stress on the blood vessels, organs<br />

and heart. Having ACV and H with meals<br />

will help prevent protein raising the blood<br />

pressure. It also contributes to a feeling<br />

of greater well-being because the thinner<br />

blood circulates quickly and more easily<br />

through the blood vessels. Dr. Jarvis found<br />

regular consumption of CV and H to be<br />

an excellent health tonic with numerous<br />

health attributes.<br />

ACV is highly nutritious as it contains all<br />

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

readily accepted by the body. Good health<br />

starts with good digestion and assimilation<br />

of nutrients. ACV taken before food will<br />

stimulate and promote healthy digestion<br />

and assimilation of vital nutrients for good<br />

health. A well-functioning digestive system<br />

helps prevent disease by neutralising any<br />

toxic substances that enter the body.<br />

It is important to note not all ACV is<br />

produced in the traditional way and results<br />

are likely to prove disappointing with these<br />

other vinegars.<br />

Marshall’s Premium ACV and ACV<br />

with 20% Manuka Honey is produced in<br />

Canterbury from Organic whole apples in<br />

the traditional way. It is double strength so<br />

you can use less.<br />

Excitement building along<br />

with new campus<br />

<strong>2018</strong> edition<br />

Enormous progress is being made in<br />

the construction of a new campus for<br />

Avonside Girls’ High School and Shirley<br />

Boys’ High School.<br />

Some 5000 piles have now been driven<br />

into the ground at the site in QEII Park.<br />

The state of the art campus is on track<br />

to be opened for term two of 2019.<br />

Avonside Girls’ Principal Sue Hume<br />

expects the campus will become a<br />

crucial asset for the east of Christchurch.<br />

“Residents in the east of Christchurch<br />

have long been calling for a new<br />

high school, and the new campus<br />

will be a place where the community<br />

is welcomed. Many of our facilities,<br />

including the sports facilities will be<br />

available for community use,” says Sue<br />

Hume.<br />

Among the facilities are a Performing<br />

Arts Centre with a 750-seat theatre, a<br />

second smaller<br />

100-seat theatre and three full-sized<br />

indoor Gymnasiums.<br />

Shirley Boys’ Principal John Laurenson<br />

says the new school will be the ultimate<br />

campus for providing high quality single<br />

sex education.<br />

“We’ll still be offering all the benefits of<br />

a single-sex education, but our students<br />

will have the advantage of being able<br />

to learn and grow alongside students<br />

from our partner school, in what will be<br />

a truly incredible campus,” says John<br />

Laurenson.<br />

In the meantime, as work continues<br />

onsite, the schools are gearing up for a<br />

busy <strong>2018</strong>.<br />

The schools will make New Zealand<br />

history in 2019 when they become the<br />

first two single sex schools to co-locate.<br />

SOUTHERN VIEW<br />

Christchurch Girls<br />

Last year our school was 140 years old<br />

and in that 140 year history we have never<br />

doubted what we stand for. We know<br />

what we are. From our beginnings in<br />

1877 we have only ever been a purpose<br />

built school for girls. When our school<br />

first opened on that September day in<br />

1877 who could have envisaged 140<br />

years later: three site moves, a number of<br />

earthquakes, 13 principals and a fabulous<br />

new building? In that time we have seen<br />

the move from ink pens to ball points,<br />

from blackboards to whiteboards to<br />

laptops. It makes you wonder what the<br />

future holds in store and how can you<br />

prepare for what may or may not be? At<br />

Christchurch Girls’ High School we work<br />

hard to build capacity in our students so<br />

that they are able to embrace the future<br />

with confidence.<br />

Students strive to pursue personal<br />

excellence on the sporting field, in cultural<br />

activities, through community service and<br />

academically. They do so with energy and<br />

enthusiasm, supported by an experienced,<br />

professional and caring staff. We are<br />

traditional in aspects such as uniform,<br />

courtesy and the high expectations we<br />

have of our students but innovative in the<br />

wide range of opportunities we provide<br />

both inside and outside the classroom.<br />

Hence our vision: Embrace Tradition,<br />

Embrace Innovation, Embrace Excellence.<br />

Education takes us from darkness into<br />

light.<br />

Kia tu ki tenei taumata – o te Whai Ao – ki<br />

te Ao Marama<br />

Kia mohio hei whakatuwhera mou<br />

Nau mai, Haere mai.<br />

So stand at this threshold – Te Whai Ao –<br />

The World of Light and know that it is open<br />

for you. You are welcomed.<br />

<strong>2018</strong> Pathways at Linwood College<br />

Education is about the well-being of the<br />

whole person and how developmentally<br />

positive experiences enrich our<br />

students’ understanding of who they<br />

are and broaden their outlook. They<br />

nurture students’ classroom focus by<br />

contextualising their learning and sowing<br />

the seeds of positive ambition.<br />

Linwood College believes in a ‘pathwayed<br />

curriculum’. This means the school,<br />

students and families knowing:<br />

1. Students’ prior learning and skills as they<br />

come into LC from our partner primary<br />

schools and building on these successes<br />

2. How the learning at LC connects to<br />

what the students want to do when they<br />

leave school. “What are my post-school<br />

pathways and how does my time at LC<br />

help me achieve these pathways?”<br />

In this way learning is meaningful to the<br />

individual and strengths-based.<br />

Kia ora koutou. Talofa. Kia Orana. Malo e<br />

lelei. Bula. Fakaalofa atu. Namaste. Kumusta.<br />

Haere mai ki Te Kura Huruhuru Ao o<br />

Horomaka. Warm greetings to the Hornby<br />

High School community.<br />

What an exciting year we have ahead of us<br />

in <strong>2018</strong>. We will move into the first two of our<br />

new buildings around the middle of the year.<br />

Our new gymnasium offers a second full<br />

sized basketball court to complement the<br />

court in the existing Gymnasium. It will also<br />

contain a fitness and weights room (a new<br />

addition for students) and teaching spaces.<br />

Marian College<br />

Students learn best when who they are in<br />

terms of language, culture and identity – is<br />

affirmed. Enhancing the mana and dignity<br />

of the individual is at the heart of Linwood<br />

College.<br />

Our school’s Year 7-13 curriculum creates<br />

aspiration and community. There is<br />

age-appropriate educational and social<br />

continuity and multiple opportunities for<br />

leadership so students excel and develop<br />

independence.<br />

At our school all students can make<br />

their mark whether academic, cultural<br />

or sporting and set their direction for life<br />

after secondary school. An LC leaver is<br />

confident and well-prepared for the future.<br />

Our leavers continue to join thousands of<br />

former LC students who have achieved<br />

personal success both within New Zealand<br />

and overseas.<br />

The main building (the one you see from<br />

Waterloo Road) will contain specialist<br />

teaching spaces for technologies, visual arts<br />

and sciences. It will also include our learning<br />

commons, Whare, student cafe and wellness<br />

resources, staffroom, and administration.<br />

We all know of course that a school is much<br />

more than its buildings, and a huge amount<br />

of work has gone into adapting how we<br />

cause learning.<br />

The Manaiakalani pedagogy (Learn Create<br />

Share), and the use of digital devices<br />

(Chromebooks) is having a huge effect on<br />

student achievement, with achievement<br />

surpassing growth and improvement<br />

nationally by a significant margin. We ask<br />

all students to come to school equipped<br />

with a Chromebook, apart from your time,<br />

there is little better you can invest in your<br />

child’s education than the purchase of that<br />

Chromebook.<br />

Junior students are increasingly approaching<br />

their learning via real world contexts<br />

(whether it’s the arts or business, or project<br />

based learning designed to improve our<br />

community in real ways). This is contributing<br />

to improved engagement and improved<br />

learning.<br />

We are a very values based school, and our<br />

students repeatedly show that they have a<br />

heart for our values, for their community, and<br />

for what is right.<br />

What an amazing year we are going to have.<br />

Kiwi Christmas<br />

visits South New<br />

Brighton Primary<br />

Marian College<br />

Stress-Free Day 2017 at Marian College.<br />

South New Brighton Primary School<br />

children were delighted to see a Christmas<br />

Sleigh in their playground area on<br />

Wednesday morning.<br />

There was much excitement around a<br />

visit from Tony Simpson, the writer and<br />

director of the newly released movie ‘Kiwi<br />

Christmas’ and the sleigh from the movie.<br />

Tony visited the school to share the<br />

process of making a movie from<br />

developing the idea, writing the script,<br />

casting the actors and adding the special<br />

effects. The children were in awe listening<br />

to him and asked some fantastic questions<br />

about the journey of making the movie.<br />

The children from the Ruru and Kuaka<br />

teams then got to sit inside the sleigh<br />

that was used in the actual movie. Even<br />

Principal John Bockett got in on the action<br />

by sitting inside the sleigh and making<br />

it go faster than the speed of light by<br />

pressing the red button on the dashboard<br />

of the sleigh! The children had so much<br />

fun and loved enjoying the magic of a ‘Kiwi<br />

Christmas’.<br />

Villa Maria College<br />

<strong>2018</strong> edition<br />

Hagley Community College<br />

Villa Maria College is a state integrated<br />

Catholic secondary school for girls in Years<br />

7 – 13. The foundation for everything we<br />

do is our Catholic faith, which we express<br />

through our Mercy charism.<br />

We aim to offer spiritual formation and<br />

pastoral care in the tradition of Catherine<br />

McAuley, and the Sisters of Mercy who<br />

founded the College in 1918. This year we<br />

turn 100 years old and will be celebrating<br />

in style on <strong>16</strong>,17,18 February.<br />

Our Mission is to: “Empower each young<br />

woman to determine her potential, live<br />

Gospel values, confidently embrace lifelong<br />

learning and as a Mercy woman be<br />

inspired to make a difference”.<br />

We have a proud academic history,<br />

annually achieving academic results<br />

which are among the best in the country.<br />

Students set high goals and the College<br />

supports them in striving for excellence.<br />

Our most recent NCEA results included<br />

pass rates of 93.5% at Level 1, 95.2% at<br />

Level 2 and 97.4% at Level 3. UE 86.4%.<br />

Villa Maria College offers many sporting<br />

opportunities, our Sports Director coordinates<br />

over 30 sports for girls to choose<br />

from. It’s not surprising that we have<br />

extremely high participation levels along<br />

with impressive regional and national<br />

successes!<br />

The cultural life of the College is also<br />

filled with extensive musical and choral<br />

opportunities along with bi-annual<br />

Productions and Stage Challenge entries.<br />

We invite you to visit our Open Day on 8<br />

May, <strong>2018</strong> and see for yourself our special<br />

character. You will also find a wealth of<br />

information on our website –www.villa.<br />

school.nz<br />

Over 1,000 students enrol into Hagley<br />

each year. They choose Hagley because<br />

of the great choice of subjects and<br />

the unique programmes Hagley offers.<br />

Students go to Hagley because of the<br />

way they are treated and supported.<br />

Every student at Hagley knows that<br />

it is cool to be different and they<br />

celebrate this difference in a dynamic<br />

environment.<br />

With over 150 senior subjects available,<br />

Hagley creates opportunities that you<br />

never imagined were possible at school.<br />

Imagine being able to be an animator,<br />

a dancer, a scientist, a film producer, a<br />

fashion designer, or a chef. At Hagley<br />

When Shirley Intermediate School’s<br />

two swimming pools were earthquake<br />

damaged the SIS Board of Trustees, having<br />

found no likely help sources, undertook<br />

costly repairs. Now, after six summers<br />

their pupils continue to reap the benefits.<br />

In addition to swimming almost daily,<br />

pupils can also join the endurance club.<br />

As few SIS pupils attend swim clubs, It is<br />

significant whenever the 1km continuous<br />

swimming certificate is awarded.<br />

Principal, Geoff Siave said the pools<br />

provide achievement opportunities -<br />

and fun - for pupils, local schools, and<br />

the community. “Learning to swim is<br />

achievable, and we’’re also building<br />

community connections.” Children need<br />

Stretch<br />

your way back to it<br />

As we return to our normal daily routines after the holidays you<br />

may begin to find the odd ache or pain creeping in.<br />

This is a good indicator from our<br />

bodies, that the holiday routine<br />

was somewhat different. Perhaps<br />

you sit a lot for work and you<br />

were on the go or, you are normally more<br />

active and the holiday break was more<br />

sedentary. Either way the sooner you pay<br />

attention to these signals the easier it will<br />

be to deal with it.<br />

So what can you do to ward off pain<br />

and stiffness and boost your energy and<br />

alertness? 10 simple stretching exercises<br />

at your desk that will release tension from<br />

head to toe. They take only a few minutes.<br />

Set the alarm on your cell phone or<br />

computer to go off every hour to remind<br />

you it’s time to get up and stretch.<br />

Just stand up and sit down - no hands<br />

If you stand up and sit down (over and<br />

over) without using your hands it can be a<br />

challenge, do it while you’re on the phone;<br />

no one will know.<br />

Shrug your shoulders - to release the neck and shoulders<br />

Inhale deeply and shrug your shoulders,<br />

lifting them high up to your ears. Hold.<br />

Release and drop. Repeat three times.<br />

Loosen the hands with air circles<br />

Clench both fists, stretching both hands<br />

out in front of you.<br />

Make circles in the air, first in one direction,<br />

to the count of ten. Then reverse the circles.<br />

Shake out the hands.<br />

Point your fingers - good for hands, wrist, and forearms<br />

Stretch your left hand out in front of you,<br />

pointing fingers toward the floor. Use your<br />

right hand to increase the stretch, pushing<br />

your fingers down and toward the body.<br />

Be gentle do the same with the other hand.<br />

Now stretch your left hand out straight<br />

in front, wrist bent, with fingers pointing<br />

skyward. Use your right hand to increase<br />

the stretch, pulling the fingers back toward<br />

your body. Do the same on the other side.<br />

Release the upper body with a torso twist<br />

Inhale and as you exhale, turn to the right<br />

and grab the back of your chair with your<br />

right hand, and grab the arm of the chair<br />

with your left. With eyes level, use your<br />

grasp on the chair to help twist your torso<br />

around as far to the back of the room as<br />

possible. Hold the twist and let your eyes<br />

continue the stretch see how far around<br />

the room you can peer. Slowly come back<br />

to facing forward. Repeat on the other side.<br />

Do leg extensions<br />

Grab the seat of your chair to brace yourself<br />

and extend your legs straight out in front of<br />

you so they are parallel to the floor.Flex and<br />

point your toes five times. Release. Repeat.<br />

Stretch your back with a “big hug”<br />

Hug your body, placing the right hand on<br />

your left shoulder and the left hand on your<br />

right shoulder. Breathe in and out, releasing<br />

the area between your shoulder blades.<br />

Cross your arms - for the shoulders and upper back<br />

Extend one arm out straight in front of you.<br />

With the other hand, grab the elbow of the<br />

outstretched arm and pull it across your<br />

chest, stretching your shoulder and upper<br />

back muscles. Hold. Release. Stretch out the<br />

other arm in front of you - repeat.<br />

Stretch your back and shoulders with a “leg hug”<br />

Sit on the edge of your chair (if it has<br />

wheels, wedge the chair against the desk or<br />

wall to make sure it does not roll). Put your<br />

feet together, flat on the floor.<br />

Lean over, chest to knees, letting your arms<br />

dangle loosely to the floor. Release your<br />

neck. Now bring your hands behind your<br />

legs, right hand grasping left wrist, forearm<br />

(or elbow if you can reach that far), left hand<br />

“Your face is unique.<br />

grasping the right. Feel the stretch in your<br />

Trust your injectable<br />

back, shoulders and neck. Hold. Release<br />

times<br />

Look up to release upper body<br />

Sit up tall in Medical your Director chair, or stand up. Stretch<br />

Dr Heather Jefferies<br />

your arms overhead and interlock your<br />

REAL ESTATE<br />

Luxury on a grand scale<br />

48 Revelation Drive, Clifton Hill - Auction 1 February <strong>2018</strong>, unless sold prior<br />

4 bedrooms | 3 bathrooms | 3 toilets | 3 living rooms | 2 dining rooms | 2 car-garage | 3 off-street parks - Listing # FM5326<br />

This absolute gem on the upper slopes of Clifton<br />

Hill will captivate you on every level. The expansive<br />

4-bedroom home could fit in proudly anywhere in<br />

the world, but just happens to grace Christchurch,<br />

with breath-taking views across the city, Pegasus<br />

Bay and the <strong>Southern</strong> Alps.<br />

The house was designed by Architect Jonty Rout<br />

of Sheppard & Rout. Rout looked after every detail,<br />

including quality, scale and light at every turn,<br />

making this huge home an unparalleled offering<br />

in the hills of Christchurch. Upon entry into the<br />

home, luxury surrounds you combined with<br />

the connection to the views beyond. Gaggenau<br />

appliances, granite benchtop and a butler’s pantry<br />

are just the start, the kitchen continuous with a<br />

casual sitting and dining area, completing a space<br />

that sets the tone for the rest of the property.<br />

The 350m2 house spreads across 3 levels, and<br />

embodies the openness of its Tuscan influences,<br />

with high ceilings, tiled and wooden floors, and<br />

large outdoor balconies. The main living level is a<br />

dramatic and elegant space, with a formal dining<br />

area and an enormous light filled lounge offering<br />

impressive 180- degree views, and opens out to a<br />

sun filled balcony. A guest bedroom has separate<br />

external access and a connecting bathroom of the<br />

highest standard. Storage throughout has been well<br />

catered for with separate spaces designed to allow<br />

you to keep the home in immaculate order.<br />

The lower level comprises another large living<br />

area, a luxurious bathroom with built-in laundry,<br />

and three bedrooms including the master. The<br />

master bedroom has impressive proportions, and<br />

joins to a massive and uniquely beautiful private<br />

bathroom, complete with bathtub, Italian wall<br />

tiles, and a large window linking to the garden and<br />

mountains beyond.<br />
