Plans to quarry golf course possible<br />
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />
and Bridget Rutherford<br />
CONTROVERSIAL plans<br />
for Fulton Hogan to quarry<br />
Templeton Golf Course within<br />
the next five years, could<br />
go ahead if it meets certain<br />
conditions.<br />
The company wants to do a<br />
land swap with the 53.5ha golf<br />
course, and its nearby quarry,<br />
which sits on 84.3ha of Pound<br />
Rd land.<br />
The current quarry has<br />
reached the end of its life span,<br />
and the golf course sits on top of<br />
aggregate.<br />
In a recently released decision,<br />
the Christchurch Replacement<br />
District Plan independent<br />
hearings panel said Fulton<br />
Hogan could pursue its plans<br />
only if it met certain conditions.<br />
City council head of planning<br />
and strategic transport Richard<br />
Osborne said the prerequisite<br />
conditions had to be met by<br />
December, 2021.<br />
Those included gaining<br />
resource consent to clear<br />
indigenous vegetation and<br />
trees and providing a contract<br />
to the city council for the<br />
establishment of the course<br />
on the current quarry site, he<br />
said.<br />
The city council, neighbours<br />
Sara Harnett and Tjeerd Kikstra<br />
and Waterloo Park Ltd were<br />
strongly opposed to the plan.<br />
Ms Harnett’s property is right<br />
next door to the golf course. She<br />
said if the quarry moved there it<br />
would be noisy and dusty.<br />
“It is pretty devastating it has<br />
got so far,” she said.<br />
“There is certainly a chance<br />
it could happen. It is certainly a<br />
win for Fulton Hogan.”<br />
As part of the plan, Fulton<br />
Hogan would build the club<br />
new facilities and an 18 hole golf<br />
course on the current quarry<br />
site, and would begin quarrying<br />
at the current golf course site.<br />
The left over land is tagged for<br />
community use.<br />
It also needs to gain the<br />
Minister of Conservation’s<br />
approval to uplift the recreation<br />
reserve classification at the golf<br />
course and put it on the quarry<br />
site, he said.<br />
A Fulton Hogan spokesman<br />
said it was pleased with the<br />
outcome of the independent<br />
hearings panel, although it was<br />
not a foregone conclusion.<br />
He said the company currently<br />
quarried and processed at the<br />
Pound Rd site, and after the<br />
swap the activity would remain<br />
the same, if not in a reduced<br />
scale.<br />

Proposed resident parking<br />
scheme moves up a gear<br />
• By Andrew King<br />
RESIDENTS ARE closer to<br />
getting permits that will allow<br />
them to park on their own<br />
street over-riding any time<br />
restrictions.<br />
The Fendalton-Waimairi<br />
Community Board and city<br />
councillor Jamie Gough want to<br />
introduce permits so residents<br />
can park in their street exempt<br />
from restricted time constraints.<br />
The board recommended city<br />
council staff arrange a briefing<br />
where resident permits can be<br />
explored and potential solutions<br />
found.<br />
The recommendation was<br />
adopted by the city council at a<br />
recent meeting.<br />
“Parking restrictions are<br />
a necessary evil to promote<br />
vehicle turnover in busy areas.<br />
But the point of them is not to<br />
punish the residents that need to<br />
park in front of their own house<br />
for longer than the restricted<br />
time period,” Cr Gough said.<br />
“I think there’s a better way,<br />
and it’s pretty straight-forward,”<br />
he said.<br />
The permit would over rule<br />
any parking restrictions on the<br />
street outside their property.<br />
Russley resident Ken Legat<br />
said the permit was a fantastic<br />
idea that will start to give<br />
residents the freedom to park<br />
outside their properties.<br />
“Parking is a big problem,<br />
especially for us with the<br />
inclusion of the Airport Business<br />
Park and its employees needing<br />
a space to park near their work,”<br />
he said.<br />
The permits would be similar<br />
to the contractor parking<br />
permits Cr Gough campaigned<br />
for on behalf of a Holmwood Rd<br />
resident.<br />
They allow contractors to<br />
park exempt from restrictions<br />
in suburban streets. That idea is<br />
now being trialled for the next<br />
10 months.<br />
HAVE YOUR SAY: Does the<br />
city council need to bring<br />
in parking permits to allow<br />
residents to park outside<br />
their properties without the<br />
risk of parking fines? Share<br />

SHED FIRE<br />
A Halswell Junction Rd shed in a<br />
Fulton Hogan yard was engulfed<br />
in flames last Saturday at 3.33am.<br />
Fire Services from Addington<br />
and Sockburn were sent to the<br />
scene and were shortly backed<br />
up by Harewood and central city<br />
appliances. One end of the shed<br />
was on fire along with a tractor.<br />
The fire soon spread to the roof<br />
of the shed. The fire is not being<br />
treated as suspicious and no one<br />
was hurt. Fire Services were at<br />
the scene for about two hours.<br />
It was first noticed by a security<br />
guard passing by.<br />
RESERVE NAMES<br />
APPROVED<br />
The Riccarton-Wigram<br />
Community Board has approved<br />
the proposed names of several<br />
western reserves in the city. The<br />
subdivisions with new reserve<br />
names include the Wigram<br />
Skies subdivision, Kirkwood<br />
subdivision and the Longhurst<br />
subdivision. For a full list of the<br />
proposed reserve names and<br />
classifications go to attachment A<br />
of the Tuesday <strong>August</strong> 16 board<br />
meeting on the city council<br />
website.<br />
CAR CRASH<br />
Fire Services were sent out to the<br />
intersection of Halswell Junction<br />
and Springs Rds after a car crash.<br />
Fire Services were sent to clean<br />
up oil on the road caused by<br />
the crash. No one was trapped.<br />
Two appliances were sent from<br />
Sockburn and Harewood but<br />
only one arrived. A St John<br />
ambulance was sent to the scene.<br />
A woman involved in the crash<br />
was assessed on the site and did<br />
not need to go to the hospital.<br />
GRANT FOR<br />
HALSWELL SCHOOL<br />
The Riccarton-Wigram<br />
Community Board resolved to<br />
make a grant of $1100 from its<br />
<strong>2016</strong>-2017 Youth Development<br />
Fund. The grant was made to<br />
Halswell School to support<br />
11 pupils attending the China<br />
Group Tour. The tour will be<br />
held on September 17 through to<br />
October 5.<br />

Anti-fluoridation argument<br />
doesn’t ‘hold much water’<br />
Nick King<br />
responds to<br />
last week’s<br />
opinion piece<br />
by John<br />
Verd about<br />
the dangers<br />
of water<br />
fluoridation<br />
in Christchurch<br />
With respect John, I think<br />
your passion for the well-being<br />
of others is admirable but, in this<br />
case, misguided.<br />
To suffer a “toxic dose” of<br />
fluoride, at the current safe and<br />
recommended level you’d have to<br />
guzzle 25 gallons of water. You’d<br />
die from hyperhydration first.<br />
Sola dosis facit venenum – the<br />
dose makes the poison.<br />
You quote Hirzy and Connett<br />
as if that adds weight to the antifluoride<br />
argument.<br />
They are not respected in their<br />
field, nor do they speak for the<br />
(United States) Environmental<br />
Protection Agency. And they’re<br />
at odds with their peers and<br />
mountains of research.<br />
I suspect these “studies” are the<br />
well-known “Chinese studies”,<br />
popular among conspiracy theorists<br />
and widely discredited. Fifty<br />
poor studies versus thousands<br />
of more robust studies does not<br />
make a solid case.<br />
The Chinese studies fail to<br />
acknowledge the higher than recommended<br />
levels of fluoride and<br />
other chemicals (also other factors<br />
that may contribute to lower<br />
IQ), including arsenic and iodine<br />
– iodine being a good example<br />
of “beneficial in small doses,<br />
dangerous in higher doses”.<br />
The dose makes the poison.<br />
Even if it is a by-product of an<br />
industrial process, so what? Lots<br />
of things are. We call it recycling.<br />
It’s safe at the levels required to<br />
be beneficial to teeth.<br />
Sure, it might be classed as<br />
a hazardous product which, of<br />
course, it will be if you’re counting<br />
it by the truck load.<br />
Hydrochloric acid is highly<br />
corrosive, but is also produced<br />
naturally by your own body.<br />
There’s arsenic in rice.<br />
The dose makes the poison.<br />
I’m all for questioning and<br />
challenging the status-quo –<br />
things go stale if we don’t.<br />
But scaring people with<br />
sciencey-sounding rhetoric isn’t<br />
very helpful, even if your intentions<br />
are good.<br />
I too have my own reservations<br />
about this situation because of<br />
Christchurch’s reputation for<br />
amazing water, and I have an<br />
emotional attachment to that.<br />
But the points you covered just<br />
don’t hold much water (pun<br />
intended) and are potentially<br />
unnecessarily scary for people.<br />
Readers respond to last<br />
week’s opinion piece by<br />
John Verd about fluoridated<br />
water<br />
Pam Webber, Middleton<br />
I agree with you. (It’s)<br />
abhorrent that they intend<br />
ruining our beautiful<br />
Christchurch water. Keep up the<br />
good work.<br />
Ian Orchard, Papanui<br />
I won’t be losing sleep<br />
over the possibility of<br />
fluoridated water until I get<br />
some more details which<br />
John Verd omitted from<br />
his soapbox. The somewhat<br />
breathless revelation that<br />
hydrofluorosilicic acid (more<br />
properly Hexafluorosilicic acid)<br />
is a by-product of the fertiliser<br />
industry isn’t particularly<br />
relevant. Like sausages, lots<br />
of ingredients in food come<br />
from pathways that we prefer<br />
not to know about, without<br />
being in any way hazardous.<br />
On the other hand, plenty of<br />
ingredients can be dangerous<br />
in the wrong concentrations.<br />
Sodium chloride and<br />
dihydrogen oxide are two classic<br />
examples. Sodium bicarbonate,<br />
frequently recommended for<br />
tough cleaning jobs, is also an<br />
essential ingredient in cakes.<br />
John makes no mention of the<br />
concentration of fluoride ions in<br />
treated water. The World Health<br />
Organisation recommends<br />
WESTERN NEWS<br />
1mg/l or one part per million,<br />
hardly a toxic dose for a mineral<br />
that doesn’t accumulate in the<br />
body. He also omits to mention<br />
the ‘elevated’ levels of fluorine<br />
required to cause reduced<br />
IQ, or whether association is<br />
actual causation, or if any of<br />
the 50 studies had survived<br />
peer review? It’s much easier to<br />
scaremonger if you leave out<br />
any details that might counter<br />
your beliefs.<br />
Fee, Fendalton<br />
I am very annoyed that<br />
people do not have a choice<br />
with fluoridation. It’s mass<br />
poisoning. I certainly do not<br />
want to drink a neurotoxin<br />
everyday. What about babies<br />
and pregnant mothers? I would<br />
have to buy a special water filter<br />
that can get rid of fluoride.<br />
Children who have rotten teeth<br />
are most likely not drinking<br />
water and consuming too much<br />
sugar. Better to educate than<br />
fluoridate.<br />
Daniel Brice, Woolston<br />
I strongly support John<br />
Verd’s article on water<br />
fluoridation. It’s a poison and,<br />
like all things we ingest, it<br />
should be done of our own<br />
hand. I will be doing as much<br />
as possible to stop our precious<br />
water from being tainted with<br />
this chemical and having the<br />
choice taken from me of water I<br />
put into my body.<br />

Models at big event<br />
• By Annabelle Dick<br />
BURNSIDE’S Rebecca<br />
Dore will be among the<br />
models strutting down the<br />
catwalk at New Zealand<br />
Fashion Week.<br />
She will join Lucy Wyma,<br />
of Papanui, for tomorrow’s<br />
wedding section of the<br />
show. They will also appear<br />
on Saturday.<br />
Miss Dore, 21, is Portfolio<br />
Model Agency’s booker and<br />
a model for the business.<br />
This is her fourth time<br />
walking at NZFW and she’s<br />
thrilled to be part of one of<br />
the more extravagant shows<br />
of the week.<br />
“I did the wedding show<br />
last year and it was beautiful.<br />
It’s the best show of<br />
the week and it’s exciting<br />
to be a bride,” Miss Dore<br />
said.<br />
Portfolio Model Agency<br />
director Mel Radford<br />
Brown said the girls are<br />
some of the best in the<br />
agency and reflect the talent<br />
Christchurch has to offer.<br />
“This speak volumes of<br />
portfolio models and the<br />
calibre of our models,” Mrs<br />
Radford Brown said.<br />
She has also walked in<br />
Australia’s premier event,<br />
the Mercedes-Benz Fashion<br />

Miss Wyma, 20, also<br />
walked in the latest Mercedes-Benz<br />
Fashion Week<br />
and will model at NZFW<br />
this week.<br />
The young up-andcoming<br />
model was recently<br />
signed to IMG International,<br />
which has represented<br />
the likes of Gisele<br />
Bundchen, Miranda Kerr<br />
and Kate Moss.<br />
Georgia Greig, 19, of<br />
Ilam, will accompany the<br />
girls in what will be her first<br />
appearance at fashion week.<br />
Miss Greig only just<br />
stepped into the modelling<br />
scene a year ago and is<br />
excited to be in the show<br />
seeing as she didn’t even attend<br />
casting for the event.<br />
“It’s pretty overwhelming<br />
to be chosen because, being<br />
a student, it was financially<br />
unviable to attend casting<br />
so I just hung back and let<br />
them know I was available<br />
to be booked directly,” she<br />
said.<br />
The models will appear<br />
in the wedding show next<br />
Wednesday and Saturday.<br />

Our People<br />
WESTERN NEWS<br />
Snowboarding and modelling<br />
Anneke Stewart is an artist who has spent years<br />
travelling and adventure-seeking. Reporter<br />
Annabelle Dick spoke to her about what it was<br />
like growing up on a deer farm, modelling for one<br />
of New Zealand’s biggest designers and how she<br />
impressed some of Europe’s most well-known<br />
graffiti artists<br />
You are an artist by trade, can<br />
you tell me about your art and<br />
your career?<br />
I exhibit at least once or twice<br />
a year, I’m always producing<br />
artwork. I produce in about<br />
10 different mediums quite<br />
prolifically. The style is very much<br />
cohesive throughout my work.<br />
I’m into reclaimed objects<br />
and keeping the integrity of a<br />
material. My approach to what<br />
I do is consciously create and<br />
honour where we come from and<br />
where our materials come from.<br />
I believe we’re here to look after<br />
this beautiful planet. I’m a Reiki<br />
master which is like an energy<br />
healer so I’m very sensitive to<br />
energy and energy patterns.<br />
I love what I do. Art is not<br />
something I do, it’s who I am and<br />
there’s no separation between the<br />
two. It’s like breathing I have to<br />
do it in order to feel normal.<br />
What are you working on at<br />
the moment?<br />
I’m currently working on<br />
more products and print media<br />
on paper so I can make my<br />
work more accessible. I’ve<br />
just completed the largest<br />
commission of my career so<br />
far for the Deloitte building in<br />
the city centre. It’s a lenticular<br />
lightbox which is an animated<br />
3D-type medium so the images<br />
change when you walk past.<br />
I’m trying to keep my fine art<br />
and commercial art separate. On<br />
a weekly basis I do art classes<br />
where I teach a handful of<br />
students – hopefully, by next year<br />
I can have more classes. I want<br />
to start adult classes next month<br />
too. I’m also doing a piece for the<br />
BMX park over in New Brighton<br />
in spring.<br />
Tell me about you family.<br />
My father was a deer farmer<br />
and my mother has always<br />
worked in fashion. When I was in<br />
school she sold Pieter’s Modelling<br />
Agency which is now Portfolio<br />
CREATIVE: Anneke Stewart with one of her creations.<br />
Model Agency. Then a few years She’s very down to earth, a hard<br />
later she started New Zealand worker and she’s quite shy. She<br />
Fashion Week.<br />
loves to cook and hates shopping.<br />
I’ve always grown up with a That sounds like you would’ve<br />
highly driven and motivated had an interesting upbringing,<br />
mum doing amazing events. what was life like growing up?<br />
I had an amazing life growing<br />
up on a farm. We spent summers<br />
in the Sounds at our family bach<br />
and in the winter I was always up<br />
at Mt Olympus.<br />
Spending time on the snow was<br />
a big part of my life. I learnt to<br />
ski there at three-years-old and<br />
snowboard at 16.<br />
I actually did my minor<br />
at art school in snowboard<br />
photography just so I could get<br />
up the mountain every week<br />
and justify it. I’ve been really<br />
involved in the early days of the<br />
snowboard industry in New<br />
Zealand. It makes me who I am<br />
and it makes me tick.<br />
Were you ever keen to get into<br />
fashion after growing up with a<br />
mother who’s highly prominent<br />
in the industry?<br />
Fashion isn’t something I’ve<br />
felt a huge desire to get into, I<br />
chose to pursue art which isn’t<br />
highly lucrative but I’m working<br />
on it. I used to model when I was<br />
15 through to about 20 – but it<br />
wasn’t serious at all.<br />
I was just learning to<br />
snowboard when I got the biggest<br />
bruise on my hip. Soon after<br />
that happened I had to fly up to<br />
Auckland for my first advertising<br />
campaign for a New Zealand<br />
designer and it was with Helen<br />
Cherry.<br />

give way to creating art<br />
It was a big deal and I turned<br />
up all bruised expecting them to<br />
say: ‘Who is this chick from the<br />
boonies? What’s she doing?’<br />
Christine Webster shot the<br />
campaign and I idolised her as<br />
a photographer and here was<br />
me this little rookie snowboard<br />
model chick. I was mortified. That<br />
exemplifies my non-attachment<br />
to the fashion industry.<br />
I did draw on my photography<br />
skills though and I was the official<br />
photographer for New Zealand<br />
Fashion Week when I moved back<br />
to the country.<br />
What was school like?<br />
I went to Hororata Primary<br />
then Selwyn House before<br />
going to boarding school at St<br />
Margaret’s College.<br />
After high school I went to<br />
Christchurch Polytechnic where I<br />
did a degree in craft design.<br />
I actually failed university<br />
entrance for art so I couldn’t get<br />
into art school on my marks.<br />
So I took the year off and<br />
snowboarded every day and<br />
painted at night and filled up<br />
work books so I could get myself<br />
in. I then did my post graduate<br />
at Elam School of Fine Arts<br />
majoring in sculpture.<br />
What did you do after<br />
studying?<br />
I had been institutionalised my<br />
ENTHUSIASTIC: Anneke Stewart on the slopes with her<br />
four-year-old daughter Phoenix.<br />
whole life so I decided to move<br />
overseas where I spent 10 years.<br />
What was it like living<br />
overseas?<br />
I tried to get art-related jobs<br />
but they wouldn’t recognise my<br />
degree there. While I was there I<br />
got very good at graffiti.<br />
My partner of the time was<br />
an aerosol artist so I went out to<br />
do public walls with him quite<br />
often. I was part of a paint jam in<br />
Brighton with about 150 graffiti<br />
artists from all around Europe<br />
and I was one of three girls. They<br />
were watching me paint and<br />
asked me how long I’ve been<br />
doing it . . . it was probably about<br />
my fifth ever piece and they were<br />
really impressed.<br />
After living in the UK I moved<br />
to Morzine, France and I got a job<br />
as a photographer. The first gig<br />
was at the Arctic Circle up the top<br />
of Sweden to an event called The<br />
Battle which is legendary in the<br />
snowboarding world. I ended up<br />
meeting a pro rider from Sweden<br />
and we ended up dating for four<br />
years.<br />
SUNSET: Mandala light box created from an original photo<br />
taken near Shag Rock after the February 22, 2011, earthquake.<br />
Why did you make the move<br />
back to New Zealand?<br />
After the Sweden saga I<br />
came home. I became unwell<br />
and developed really bad<br />
endometriosis.<br />
I was close to being booked in<br />
to get surgery but I wanted time<br />
to get my body strong so I moved<br />
to Wanaka. Being a Reiki master<br />
I was aware that what was going<br />
on could be fixed holistically. I<br />
worked with a natural healer and<br />
nutritionist for a year and I got<br />
rid of it completely without any<br />
surgery.<br />
You got engaged earlier this<br />
year, how did you meet you<br />
partner?<br />
When I moved to Wanaka I<br />
met my partner Anthony who’s a<br />
builder. We lived in Wanaka for a<br />
couple of years before moving to<br />
Leeston, then to the high country<br />
and now we’re in Sumner. We<br />
have two kids together – Phoenix<br />
who’s four and Knox who is twoand-a-half.<br />
After the endometriosis I was<br />
told I wouldn’t be able to conceive<br />
children easily so my children are<br />
miracles. He’s from the Taranaki<br />
so he’s a North Island boy but<br />
I managed to move him down<br />
here because I’m a hardcore<br />
Cantabrian.<br />
SCIRT programme on the home straight<br />
SCIRT’s five year programme of repairs to pipes, roads, bridges and retaining walls is<br />
almost complete and will finish in December.<br />
Most of our repairs involve fixing the city’s underground pipe networks with only small<br />
amount of our work focused on roads.<br />
Our roading work largely involves fixing where we have dug down to repair and replace<br />
the earthquake damaged pipes beneath. The result may look a little patchy but we repair<br />
roads to a reliable and serviceable standard.<br />
The City Council and NZ Transport Agency will continue completing ongoing repairs to the<br />
city's earthquake-damaged roads after SCIRT.<br />
Progress in your neighbourhood<br />
• Extensive repairs to the wastewater network in Upper Riccarton and Ilam will be<br />
completed next month.<br />
• Repairs to underground pipes and roading throughout the Hornby area are more than<br />
halfway through and will be complete in October this year.<br />
• Essential wastewater repairs in Aikmans Road in Merivale have begun and will be<br />
completed at the end of the year.<br />
• Your support is helping us to get the job done, thank you from the SCIRT team.<br />

Bridal Show<br />
Plan your honeymoon<br />
THE COST and time it takes<br />
to organise a honeymoon can<br />
often be underestimated when<br />
couples are planning their<br />
weddings.<br />
But at Sunday’s With This<br />
Ring Bridal Show, there will be<br />
a number of exhibitors there<br />
to take the stress out of it.<br />
Hello World Travel’s<br />
Rangiora and Rolleston<br />
branches will be at the show,<br />
with a group of experts to talk<br />
to people who are looking into<br />
the planning.<br />
Rangiora branch managing<br />
director Liz Ditmer said<br />
often people had unrealistic<br />
expectations of how much<br />
honeymoons could cost.<br />
She said people also had to<br />
start planning their trips well<br />
in advance, and their teams<br />
would be at next Sunday’s<br />
show to help people do so.<br />
“We’re just there to start<br />
pointing them in the right<br />
direction,” she said.<br />
“We can make<br />
appointments and sit down<br />
with them at a later time to<br />
talk in more detail.”<br />
This year’s show will have<br />
85 exhibitors ranging from<br />
wedding and bridesmaid<br />
gowns, photography,<br />
honeymoons, flowers,<br />
stationary, caterers, venue hire<br />
and many more.<br />
On top of that, there will be<br />
more than $22,000 of prizes to<br />
be won.<br />
A wedding and honeymoon<br />
at Norfolk Island will be<br />
up for grabs, as well as a<br />
honeymoon at The Edgewater<br />
Resort and Spa in Rarotonga.<br />
Venue hire up to the value<br />
of $4050 for Wigram Base<br />
will be up for grabs, along<br />
with many more prizes and<br />
giveaways.<br />
Two fashion catwalks will<br />
be held, one at 11am and the<br />
other at 2pm, showcasing<br />
wedding gowns and mother of<br />
the bride outfits.<br />
•The With This Ring Bridal<br />
Show will be held at the<br />
Air Force Museum of<br />
New Zealand, Wigram,<br />
on Sunday (<strong>August</strong> 28),<br />
from 9.30am-4pm. Tickets<br />

SCHOOLS<br />
Japanese<br />
students<br />
visit CGHS<br />
A GROUP of<br />
exchange students<br />
from Mukogawa,<br />
Japan, made<br />
themselves at home<br />
for about two weeks<br />
at Christchurch Girls’<br />
High School.<br />
Mokogawa High<br />
School travelled to<br />
New Zealand to experience<br />
the true kiwi<br />
lifestyle by attending<br />
school and living<br />
with billet families<br />
of students at CGHS<br />
recently.<br />
It is the second<br />
year CGHS have<br />
hosted students from<br />
Mokogawa High<br />
School.<br />
Prefect Jess Maindonald<br />
said it was<br />
apparent that there<br />
were many differences<br />
between living and<br />
attending school in<br />
Japan in comparison<br />
to New Zealand.<br />
“In Japan, none of<br />
the girls sit on the<br />
floor during classes<br />
or at break times.<br />
Similarly, they also do<br />
not use computers in<br />
class, instead doing all<br />
of their written work<br />
by hand,” she said.<br />
Jess said she found<br />
the Japanese students<br />
were fascinated by<br />
New Zealand culture.<br />
One of the students<br />
she spoke to said they<br />
thoroughly enjoyed<br />
learning about Maori<br />
culture and about selfdefence<br />
in PE.<br />
Principal Pauline<br />
Duthie said the school<br />
is looking to return<br />

Competitive and fun swimming<br />
and recreation at Wharenui<br />
When Coronation Pool opened in 1911 to celebrate King George V’s<br />
coronation, its future significance to new Zealand swimming might<br />
not have been realised.<br />
Wharenui Pool, as it is known today,<br />
has changed substantially over the years.<br />
now larger, the indoor pool caters for<br />
competitive training, social swimming and<br />
swimming lessons. The attached sports<br />
stadium which recently re-opened is also<br />
available for casual and organised use by<br />
individuals and groups, for basketball,<br />
badminton, volleyball and netball.<br />
“The stadium has one full size court or<br />
two smaller courts where people can play<br />
casually for as little as $6.00 or groups can<br />
use for organised events, in the daytime<br />
or evening,” explains Jackie nicol, General<br />
Manager of the Wharenui Sports Centre.<br />
The pool has also been home to the<br />
Wharenui amateur Swim Club since 1911<br />
and now has 100 registered swimmers<br />
including a junior squad.<br />
head coach, Martin harris has been with<br />
the club for the last eleven years. his high<br />
level of expertise and experience on how to<br />
compete at the top is one reason the club,<br />
has been one of the top ten swim clubs in<br />
new Zealand at the national competitions.<br />
Martin represented the united Kingdom at<br />
the Commonwealth Games, was part of an<br />
olympian team, and holds records in the<br />
united Kingdom for backstroke.<br />
another 150 to 200 non-competing<br />
swimmers use Wharenui Pool while many<br />
Christchurch schools also bus students to<br />
Wharenui for swimming lessons.<br />
Daytime and evening lessons are provided<br />
by a strong base of expert coaches who<br />
include mothers and university students<br />
with a background in swimming and<br />
coaching. Fiona Campbell, Secretary of the<br />
Wharenui Swim Club says the key is having<br />
coaches who can build a rapport with their<br />
learners so water confidence and skills<br />
develop.<br />
“Babies to mature adults learn to swim<br />
here,” adds Fiona. “Most children love water<br />
and love to play in it. We teach the basics<br />
and how to be safe in the water.”<br />
Wharenui pool is open daily: 6.30am-<br />
3.30pm (public use); 3.30pm –7.00pm (learn<br />
to swim/squads); evenings 7-9pm (public<br />
use); and weekends 9.00am–5.00pm (public<br />
use). The stadium is open: 8.30am-9pm for<br />
casual play or group bookings.<br />
Pop in for a swim, game or to check out<br />
the Kiwiana mural that was painted by<br />
Christchurch artist Dcypher (Guy ellis)<br />
who is currently working as an artist in the<br />
united States.<br />

CONTINUING EDUCATION<br />
BUSINESSES<br />
eStar working to<br />
attract best IT talent<br />
Nurturing new talent and better<br />
engaging employees will reach new<br />
heights at eStar, as the world class<br />
e-commerce platform and leading<br />
Christchurch tech company strives to<br />
attract the brightest IT professionals.<br />
eStar’s outreach activities look<br />
four to five years ahead, says Chief<br />
Operations Officer Kevin Rowland.<br />
eStar ‘lead team’ staff attend careers<br />
events, visit secondary schools and<br />
recently supported Shadowtech,<br />
with two female employees<br />
mentoring two secondary school girls for a day.<br />
The company is recruiting and will be looking<br />
for new talent at Ara Institute of Canterbury’s<br />
Industry Expo on 25 <strong>August</strong>, having previously<br />
employed Ara graduates (when Ara was CPIT).<br />
Finding the right skills mix for retail IT is<br />
challenging, Rowland says. With around 70<br />
staff, eStar designs and develops the software<br />
that powers the websites and the online retail<br />
systems of retailers including Briscoes and<br />
Country Road.<br />
Technical skills are of course essential, but ‘soft<br />
skills’ such as communication and interaction<br />
can really set candidates apart. “When we<br />
interview I am always looking for personality. We<br />
do a technical test/developer half day immersion<br />
and everybody freaks over the fact that it’s a tech<br />
test, but if you can do what you say on your CV<br />
then it’s not an issue. You’re in a live ‘dev’ room,<br />
with the people you are going to be working<br />

BURNSIDE HIGH School flanker Cam<br />
Russell was rewarded for his efforts<br />
during this year’s UC Championship at<br />
Saturday’s grand final.<br />
Russell was the joint winner of the<br />
Philip McDonald Memorial Medal with<br />
Shirley Boys’ High School No 8 Cruz<br />
Topai-Aveai.<br />
Former winners of the medal include<br />
the likes of super rugby players Damian<br />
McKenzie and Mitchell Drummond.<br />
The UC Championship was decided on<br />
Saturday when Christchurch Boys’ High<br />
School defeated Shirley Boys’ 21-20.<br />
The winner of the medal is decided<br />
by opposition coaches throughout the<br />
season. After each game they submit who<br />
they think were the top three performers<br />
on the opposition side.<br />
Russell is in his fourth season with the<br />
first XV. He made his Burnside debut<br />
in 2013 as a year 10. He was part of the<br />
Burnside team that conceded 100 points<br />
against CBHS that season.<br />
Now in his second season as the team’s<br />
captain, Russell has played a large part in<br />
Burnside’s rise in the UC Championship.<br />
He scored nine tries last year and has<br />
gone one better this year with 10.<br />
The flanker now has the chance to<br />
help his team win entry to the national<br />

Reclaim your<br />
identity<br />
When it comes to dentures, Christchurch people<br />
have access to world-leading techniques and oral<br />
aesthetics right on their doorstep.<br />
At his Montreal street studio Lovebite,<br />
internationally renowned dental<br />
technician Richard Greenlees creates<br />
beautiful bespoke dentures with small<br />
nuances in the fabrication, colour and<br />
shape, and even slight imperfections to<br />
create a uniquely individual smile.<br />
There is no need for dentures to look<br />
false. Richard takes a great deal of<br />
satisfaction in making bespoke dentures<br />
that look 100 per cent real and natural,<br />
personally guiding his patients through<br />
the transformation process to craft a<br />
smile that reflects their individuality and<br />
personality, and recreates their natural<br />
pre-denture smile.<br />
Not only do Lovebite teeth look<br />
real, the whole structure and shape of<br />
the patient’s face is transformed with<br />
Richard’s top-of-the-line dentures,<br />
something he calls his signature ‘denture<br />
lift’.<br />
“With appropriate facial support, the<br />
facial tissues are brought back into the<br />
correct position, the lips are reformed,<br />
and beauty is restored,” he says.<br />
it is the interior architecture of a<br />
Lovebite denture that helps to create a<br />
more youthful appearance by recovering<br />
the face and skeletal shape that can be<br />
lost after years of wearing dentures.<br />
As the smile is transformed, so are the<br />
patient’s confidence, and the way they<br />
feel about themselves.<br />
Richard’s vast experience includes<br />
15 years of running his own clinic in<br />
the prestigious harley st, London,<br />
where he treated people from all walks<br />
of life, from barrow boys to the rich<br />
and famous, politicians, actors and<br />
musicians.<br />
his techniques are recognised as<br />
world-leading among his international<br />
peers, and he is regularly asked to<br />
lecture and run courses worldwide.<br />
Miles Cone (DMD, Ms, FACP, CDt),<br />
a prosthodontist from Oregon, UsA,<br />
said in November 2015: “Richard<br />
Greenlees’ craftsmanship is as stunning<br />
as it is unique. There is liberation in<br />
the calculated imperfection, indeed an<br />
asperity that reflects a purely human<br />
element.”<br />
in addition to dentures, Richard also<br />
carries out crown and bridge, veneer<br />
and implant work, in conjunction<br />
with like-minded dental surgeons who<br />
complement his creative and aesthetic<br />
work.<br />
“teeth are as different as fingerprints<br />
and vary greatly depending on a person’s<br />
age, sex and race. Dentures from<br />
Lovebite reflect this, and are as unique<br />
and individual as the people they are<br />
made for,” says Richard.<br />
There is nothing more satisfying for<br />
Richard than to see his patients leave<br />
the Lovebite studio with their selfconfidence<br />
and identity restored, as well<br />
as their smile.<br />
Confidence and beauty is restored with a new<br />
denture by Lovebite.<br />
As the smile is transformed, so are the<br />
patient’s confidence, and the way they<br />
feel about themselves.<br />

FOCUS ON HEALTH<br />
Proven<br />
formula<br />
combats<br />
colds & flu<br />
Research has shown certain herbs and natural<br />
ingredients can dramatically reduce the chances<br />
of succumbing to colds and flu.<br />
One example of a proven formula is Go<br />
Healthy ‘Go Vir-Defence’. Due to the high<br />
potency extracts it contains, one or two capsules<br />
daily are usually sufficient to keep the immune<br />
system at optimum efficiency; however, at the<br />
onset of headaches, sore throat, body aches<br />
etc. the dose should be increased to one or two<br />
capsules up to three times daily.<br />
Go Vir-Defence contains: Olive Leaf Extract<br />
- a popular ingredient used in the treatment of<br />
immune attacks for its strong anti-microbial<br />
properties.<br />
Garlic Extract - effective in combatting<br />
bacteria, viruses and fungi and supporting the<br />
immune system. Andrographis Extract - has<br />
powerful immune-enhancing properties.<br />
Echinacea Extract - a natural antibiotic and<br />
infection fighter.<br />
Pau D’ Arco Extract - helps enhance the<br />
immune system.<br />
Citrus Bioflavonoids - work with Vitamin<br />
C and support the immune system as well<br />
as strengthening capillaries and reducing<br />
inflammation.<br />
Vitamin C - a powerful antioxidant that helps<br />
counteract bacteria and viral infections.<br />
Elderberry Extract - provides immune support.<br />
Zinc - an essential mineral for the immune<br />
system and general health.<br />

Essential<br />
nutrients for<br />
health & vitality<br />
After noticing patients were<br />
experiencing gut, bowel and<br />
digestive issues that often led to<br />
more serious chronic health<br />
conditions, two Australian<br />
Naturopaths conducted<br />
extensive research. This<br />
revealed that although<br />
the patients were generally<br />
eating good food, they were not<br />
obtaining all the nutrients required<br />
for good health, with one of the<br />
main problems being the digestive<br />
system.<br />
Also, with the soils crops are<br />
grown in being depleted of many<br />
trace elements and other essential<br />
nutrients, the crops are also<br />
depleted.<br />
If we do not obtain all the<br />
required nutrients, our body will<br />
compensate to some degree, but<br />
a lack of too many nutrients will<br />
eventually lead to health issues.<br />
Knowing this, the naturopaths<br />
developed Vital Greens, a nutrientdense<br />
powdered formula that<br />
provides superior absorption and<br />
comprehensive nutrition.<br />
Vital Greens contains a balanced<br />
blend of nutritionally rich<br />

Father’s Day -<br />
Keep Dad on<br />
his toes<br />
Every three hours a New Zealand man dies from a<br />
preventable disease. Yet most “blokes” wait until<br />
something goes wrong before seeking help!<br />
Men are not as diligent at taking<br />
care of themselves as women,<br />
according to health practitioners<br />
around the world.<br />
So men, what about some<br />
preventative maintenance for<br />
your body, as you would give your<br />
car? And women, let’s try harder<br />
to encourage our men to take care<br />
of themselves. Small lifestyle<br />
changes can prevent or delay the<br />
onset of many health problems.<br />
When diabetes, arthritis or<br />
stiff, aching joints are a problem,<br />
and more time is spent sitting,<br />
it’s important to have an easy and<br />
enjoyable way to remain active.<br />
Participating in sports or not,<br />
watching TV, reading the paper,<br />
or talking on the phone, an<br />
Aircycle circulation booster can<br />
keep you moving while you sit..<br />
Keeping Dad on his toes with<br />
a Father’s Day gift of an Aircycle<br />

muscles strong and help relieve<br />
pain.<br />

Davis Cup event returns to Christchurch<br />
The New Zealand Davis<br />
Cup team are heading back to<br />
Christchurch to take on Pakistan in<br />
the Asia-Oceania Group 1 second<br />
round playoff. The Tie is being<br />
held from Friday 16 September to<br />
Sunday 18 September, indoors at<br />
Z Energy Wilding Park.<br />
Kiwi Olympians Michael Venus<br />
and Marcus Daniell ranked 41<br />
and 58 respective in the world<br />
for doubles have been named<br />
alongside Finn Tearney ranked<br />
381, Rubin Statham at 444 in<br />
singles. If Statham takes the court<br />
he will beat Onny Parun’s New<br />
Zealand Davis Cup record of the<br />
most ties played for his country of<br />
25 ties.<br />
It is likely Pakistan will select<br />
their doubles expert Aisam<br />
Qureshi who is 36-years-old and<br />
ranked 48th in doubles. Aqeel<br />
Khan is another likely veteran<br />
who should be selected.<br />
New Zealand lead Pakistan<br />
3-1 in head-to-head clashes. The<br />
last time the two sides clashed it<br />
was a 4-1 win for New Zealand<br />
in Myanmar in 2013 which was<br />
abandoned.<br />
Christchurch has been the home<br />
of Davis Cup ties since 2014, with<br />
a win against Chinese Taipei in<br />
2014 and a close 3-2 loss to India<br />
in the 2015 semi-finals. Tennis<br />
Canterbury is extremely excited<br />
to host yet another Davis Cup tie<br />
for the third consecutive year. This<br />
is a return to the glory days that<br />
has seen Tennis Canterbury host<br />
numerous Davis Cup ties against<br />
some of the superpower of world<br />
tennis.<br />
Z Energy Wilding Park is one<br />
of the oldest sport venues still in<br />
operation in all of Canterbury.<br />
It has played host to Davis<br />
Cup matches as far back as the<br />
1910’s and 20’s. Much like many<br />
of Christchurch’s other most<br />
important sporting facilities<br />
Wilding Park was severely<br />
impacted by the Christchurch<br />
Earthquake impacted in both<br />
September 2009 and February<br />
2010.<br />
The rebuilding process has<br />
been a long one. Mixed emotions<br />
were felt at the demolition of the<br />
iconic Memorial Stands, host to<br />
numerous Davis Cup Tie and other<br />
International Tennis Federation<br />
events. However it was also the first<br />
bit of tangible progress in relation<br />
to the redevelopment of Wilding<br />
Park and proved to generate<br />
some real excitement amongst the<br />
tennis community. Strengthening<br />
work on the facility’s structural<br />
steel and refurbishment of the<br />
administration and function<br />
space erased any signs of the<br />
earthquake damage and provided<br />
the wider community with some<br />
great function space.<br />
The final stage of development<br />
will see the reinstatement of<br />
six additional outdoor courts,<br />
the development of a grassy<br />
embankment for spectator viewing<br />
and social spaces, including a<br />
barbeque area. The facility will<br />
continue to be available to the<br />
local communities, including<br />
school, charitable organisations<br />
and, in some cases, other sports<br />
outside of normal hours. The<br />
final stage of development work<br />
is scheduled to be gin in the<br />
coming month with a completion<br />
date of mid November, just in<br />
time for the Summer of Tennis.<br />
This development will allow<br />
Canterbury to again host National<br />
Age Group events, International<br />
Events and, of course, future<br />
Summer Davis Cup ties.<br />
This year’s Davis Cup tie is a<br />
three day event. Two singles will<br />
be played on Friday, doubles on<br />
Saturday and the two reverse<br />
singles on Sunday. Matches are<br />
the best of five sets. Tickets and<br />
Corporate Boxes are available.<br />

Cantabrian Tennis Player USA Bound<br />
On the 1st June <strong>2016</strong>, Jack Tiller<br />
signed a national letter of intent<br />
with Southeastern Oklahoma State<br />
University, located in Durant,<br />
Oklahoma, USA.<br />
From the age of 15 Jack’s overall<br />
goal in tennis was to gain a<br />
scholarship to train, play and study<br />
in the United States of America.<br />
Through taking part in Canterbury<br />
Performance squads since the age of<br />
12, he constantly saw older players<br />
being granted scholarships and<br />
given opportunities to experience<br />
American lifestyle through<br />
tennis while gaining invaluable<br />
experiences. Seeing others excel<br />
in the college tennis system<br />
encouraged him to start<br />
preparation for enrolment in<br />
Fall <strong>2016</strong>.<br />
In October of 2015, Jack<br />
got in contact with John<br />
Gardner, the head coach in<br />
the Nelson/Marlborough region<br />
and his company, Inspire Sports.<br />
John’s expertise guided Jack<br />
through a comprehensive checklist<br />
of what he needed to achieve to<br />
reach his ultimate goal of signing<br />
with a college that fitted in well with<br />
what he wanted. John’s personalised<br />
programme was a great help. It<br />
began with initial meetings with<br />
Jack and his father so John could<br />
understand what they were looking<br />
for in a college. John then set out a<br />
‘Plan of attack” on how they would<br />
go about getting a contract. They<br />
began working together through<br />
each stage, which included NCAA<br />
registration, skills video, personal<br />
website, SAT and GPA results and<br />
working through what colleges Jack<br />
wanted to contact. Jack believes that<br />
it would not have been possible for<br />
him to work through everything<br />
that needed to be done without<br />
John’s outstanding expertise and<br />
knowledge. Jack found John’s<br />
attention to detail and reliability to<br />
be outstanding.<br />
Jack began talks with the coach<br />
from Southeastern Oklahoma State<br />
University in March of this year. The<br />
coach expressed his interest in Jack<br />
joining the college team and, after<br />
talking through email, the college<br />
made an offer for Jack to attend<br />
their college and become part of the<br />
Savage Storm athletic family. After<br />
the initial paper work, Jack signed a<br />
national letter of intent, committing<br />
Jack to attending the university.<br />
Through his years of training,<br />
Jack’s ultimate goal was to get to<br />
university. Jack is a self-professed<br />
‘late bloomer’ in tennis. During his<br />
junior years, he describes himself as<br />
a mediocre player who was always<br />
outside the top player category.<br />
Through growth, maturity and the<br />
help of the Canterbury training<br />
programme, he was able to play<br />
smarter tennis and achieve positive<br />
results. Coaching by Alistair Hunt<br />
and Matt Meredith has afforded<br />
Jack the opportunity to learn from<br />
the best and use their expertise on<br />
court, creating a huge advantage.<br />
Jack has represented Canterbury<br />
in multiple ties including<br />
Canterbury vs Marlborough,<br />
City vs Country, Canterbury<br />
team’s event and also the<br />
Canterbury men’s team. In 2015<br />
he won the under 18 Canterbury<br />
Championships, a great result to put<br />
on his college application form.<br />
Jack has always loved the fact that<br />
tennis is mostly an individual sport,<br />
results are based on a player’s own<br />
ability and there are no excuses. Jack<br />
has always enjoyed competing in<br />
Canterbury Interclub representing<br />
his club of Elmwood. He is grateful<br />
to Ashley Forbes for giving him<br />
the opportunity to play top level<br />
tennis in the premiere grade against<br />
great players like James Meredith,<br />
Remi Fennon and other top rated<br />
players in the region. Jack feels that<br />
it through playing top level players<br />
that he has learned the most, even if<br />
it involved losing.<br />
During tennis season, Jack trains<br />
or plays every day of the week. Each<br />
week also includes four sessions of<br />
hitting, two fitness sessions and two<br />
days of interclub matches on the<br />
weekends. During the off season<br />
Jack keeps training with hitting<br />
three days a week and a fitness<br />
session and match play on the<br />
weekends.<br />
Jack chooses to keep his future<br />
goals simple. His immediate goal<br />
is to do the best he can to prepare<br />
for college and to give himself the<br />
best chance of success. For Jack,<br />
this means being fit and healthy,<br />
requiring him to train as well as he<br />
can every time he gets on the court.<br />
Over the long term, Jack plans to<br />
take every opportunity he can at<br />
Southeastern Oklahoma State in<br />
order to reach his full potential<br />
whilst there, not just in tennis, but<br />
also in academic life.<br />
For younger players aspiring to<br />
play college tennis, Jack’s advice is<br />
to never give up. Jack recalls many<br />
moments in his time of playing<br />
tennis when he thought he wasn’t<br />
good enough, or wasn’t able to<br />
compete to his full potential. Not<br />
TENNIS CANTERBURY <strong>2016</strong> / 2017 CALENDAR<br />
being the best player in the region<br />
or the nation is not a problem;<br />
it’s a challenge. By embracing<br />
that challenge, working hard and<br />
training, it is possible to shorten the<br />
gap between the different levels in<br />
order to compete in top level tennis.<br />
Have a goal and go for it!<br />
Jack invites anyone interested in<br />
college tennis to feel free to ask any<br />
questions. He will be happy to try<br />
and answer!<br />

Reaching out to a<br />
new generation<br />
Hagley Park Tennis Club intends to put<br />
tennis within reach of a new generation<br />
with new programmes and initiatives<br />
designed for today’s busy families. Tim<br />
Preston, who will soon assume the role<br />
of club President, plans to breathe new<br />
life into the club by offering a fresh array<br />
of functions and activities. Along with<br />
deputy coordinator, Christine Yap, and<br />
club coach, Mark Belcher, Tim hopes<br />
to attract new players to the sport with<br />
alternatives that are approachable and<br />
fun.<br />
“Hagley Park Tennis Club has been<br />
doing too much of the same things for too<br />
long,” Tim said. “We need new ideas to<br />
bring in new people.”<br />
One of the initiatives on offer is the<br />
Tennis Hot Shots Community Play<br />
programme, which will be offered on<br />
Saturday afternoons through school terms.<br />
Community Play offers the opportunity<br />
for kids to try tennis in a friendly<br />
environment with an emphasis on having<br />
fun. Hagley Park Tennis Club’s Tennis Hot<br />
Shots community play programme will be<br />
available free to members or otherwise a<br />
gold coin donation throughout summer<br />
(Term 4 of this year and Term 1 of 2017).<br />
Let’s not forget the parents. With 28<br />
courts at their disposal, Hagley Park<br />
Tennis Club sweetens the offer with adult<br />
play sessions running simultaneously to<br />
the Tennis Hot Shots programme. Parents<br />
can do more than stand around and<br />
watch their kids play. By running both<br />
sessions at the same time, the tennis club<br />
hopes to attract families across a variety<br />
of age groups, promoting tennis as a sport<br />
that the entire family can enjoy. Situated<br />
next to Hagley Park’s rugby pitch, the<br />
tennis club also provides an alternative for<br />
families seeking to occupy children while<br />
siblings are involved in other sport.<br />
Many of Hagley Park’s tennis courts<br />
have natural lawn surfaces, with lines<br />
painted on each week. This allows the<br />
club to provide a smaller format Hot<br />
Shots court for children. It also provides<br />
the perfect surface for another of the<br />
tennis club’s initiatives, Summer League.<br />
Summer League will be offered<br />
on Tuesdays after work starting on<br />
25th October and will offer team<br />
competition for social tennis players.<br />
The format is more casual than that of<br />
traditional Business House.<br />
Other programmes at Hagley Park<br />
Tennis Club include:<br />
HAGLEY PARK TENNIS CLUB<br />
offers four FREE lessons for new<br />
members. The club offers heaps<br />
of social activities and three kinds<br />
of court surfaces. Experience the<br />
advantages of the largest tennis club<br />
in New Zealand.<br />
HOT SHOTS coaching comes to<br />
Hagley Park for kids aged three years<br />
and up. Come and have a try at one<br />
of our junior open days, Saturday<br />
10th and 17th September from 9am.<br />
Holiday Programme 26-29 September<br />

Cardio Tennis uses low-compression tennis<br />
balls which travel at a slower speed, making<br />
it easier for a beginner to hit the ball. More<br />
advanced players will be challenged by a<br />
range of activities that cater to all skill levels.<br />
Cardio Tennis works by raising participants’<br />
heart rates into their aerobic training zone. At<br />
the beginning of each session, participants<br />
are equipped with heart rate monitors before<br />
exercising to music and using a variety of<br />
modified equipment to elevate the heart<br />
rate. Like interval training, periods of high<br />
intensity are followed by short periods of rest.<br />
Cardio Tennis combines fun with<br />
spectacular success. Women can burn up to<br />
500 calories in a 60 minute workout. Men<br />
can burn up to 800 calories. Cardio Tennis<br />
coaches are Tennis NZ registered and trained<br />
to ensure that participants get a great workout<br />
while improving their tennis skills.<br />
Even if you’re not good at tennis, Cardio<br />
Tennis can provide a fun, social way to keep<br />
fit. Contact Tennis Canterbury to find a<br />
Cardio Tennis programme near you.<br />
