HALLOWEEN DELIGHT: Tara Dockerty-Wanhalla of Hornby with her son Soul dressed<br />
up as Chucky from supernatural film series Child’s Play. On Saturday The Hub Hornby<br />
celebrated Halloween with about 350 children participating in the mall’s trick or treat<br />
event. The Hub Hornby centre manager Jason Marsden said the mall was “buzzing”<br />
with lots of smiling children in costume. He said some of the costumes efforts made<br />
by the children were “outstanding”. Halloween was officially celebrated yesterday.<br />

INCREASING THE cost of on-site<br />
car parking is the “fairest approach”<br />
to Canterbury University addressing<br />
the cost of car parking provision<br />
and maintenance.<br />
On-site campus parking prices has<br />
been earmarked to skyrocket over<br />
the next three years.<br />
Last week Canterbury University<br />
announced on-site campus parking<br />
will increase by more than 56.6 per<br />
cent per cent for students and nearly<br />
120 per cent for staff by 2<strong>01</strong>9.<br />
The decision comes after Canterbury<br />
University was unable to cover<br />
the cost of car park provision and<br />
maintenance.<br />
Vice-chancellor Dr Rob Carr said<br />
it does not believe it is appropriate<br />
to subsidise car parking from other<br />
revenue that would be used for<br />
research, teaching and learning.<br />
When asked by <strong>Western</strong> <strong>News</strong><br />
if the decision was a last resort Dr<br />
Carr said the decision was the “fairest<br />
approach”.<br />
City council requirements outlined<br />
in the Christchurch District<br />
Replacement Plan estimates an additional<br />
1057 extra car parks will be<br />
needed in the next seven years.<br />
Dr Carr said the number of<br />
student parking permits had grown<br />
continually since 2<strong>01</strong>3, in spite of<br />
parking fees increasing by 15 per<br />
cent.<br />
“In terms of impact on the community,<br />
on-street parking issues are<br />
for the city council to address,” he<br />
said.<br />
Currently students pay $304 a year<br />
while staff pay $455 a year to park<br />
on campus.<br />

BARBECUE PROPOSED<br />
The city council has begun<br />
consultation on the installation of<br />
a barbecue and shelter with seating<br />
at Avonhead Park. Wigram Lions<br />
approached the city council about<br />
the project so they could leave a<br />
permanent legacy for their 100th<br />
worldwide Lions anniversary in<br />
2<strong>01</strong>7. The barbecue facility would<br />
be located between the tennis court<br />
and sports pavilion. The city council<br />
also plans to install an additional<br />
picnic table and footpath. To make<br />

Hub celebrates $75m upgrade<br />
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />
A CELEBRATION was held<br />
last Thursday to mark 40 years<br />
since The Hub Hornby was first<br />
established in 1976.<br />
As well as celebrating 40<br />
years, a red ribbon was cut to<br />
officially mark the completion<br />
and opening of the mall’s food<br />
court.<br />
The food court features wellknown<br />
restaurants and cafes<br />
including Pita Pit, Ichiban,<br />
Roast Republic, Cheeky Sparrow,<br />
Tank Juice, Shamiana and<br />
Hungry Wok.<br />
The $75 million refurbishment<br />
saw the centre grow from<br />
1200 to 6000 sq m.<br />
The Hub Hornby centre manager<br />
Jason Marsden said it was<br />
quite a milestone for the centre<br />
across a number of areas.<br />
He said leading up to the official<br />
opening, the food court had<br />
been popular with a nice design<br />
for seating.<br />
“Depending on how people<br />
use the centre – from big round<br />
tables for families to sit around,<br />
to lean-on bars and high stalls<br />
for people grabbing a quick bit<br />
of lunch before they disappear,”<br />
he said.<br />
Mr Marsden said the stage<br />
completes the whole picture as<br />
far as people being able to flow<br />
around the entire centre.<br />
Last Thursday was also the<br />
beginning of the mall’s late<br />
night Thursdays where it traded<br />
from 9am-9pm for the first<br />
time.<br />
Mr Marsden said Thursday<br />
was a big night for retail in New<br />
Zealand<br />
The final stage of the refurbishment<br />
will be the completion<br />
of the northern entrance way<br />
which is set to be finished by the<br />
end of <strong>November</strong>.<br />
SPEED LIMIT CHANGES<br />
POSSIBLE IN HALSWELL<br />
The city council has proposed lowering<br />
the speed limit along six roads<br />
within the Halswell area. This would<br />
include changing the speed limit on<br />
Halswell Junction Rd, Marshs Rd,<br />
Quaifes Rd, Sparks Rd, Milns Rd<br />
and Sutherlands Rd. It comes after<br />
the city council approved speed limit<br />
changes on 29 roads around the city<br />
in September. At the meeting, the<br />
Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton Community<br />
Board requested the city<br />
council looked into further speed<br />
reviews in the Halswell area. To see<br />

McMaster & Heap<br />
Veterinary practice<br />
Lymphoma<br />
Moya is a beautiful 4yr old Bull Mastiff cross who<br />
until earlier this year had been a perfectly healthy<br />
young dog. Her owners had noticed that over the<br />
past few days she hadn’t been quite her normal<br />
bouncy self, had gone off her food and developed<br />
a swelling under her throat. They bought her<br />
to the clinic and although on examination she<br />
seemed quite well she not only had enlarged<br />
lymph nodes around her neck but also around the<br />
front of her shoulders and at the back of her hind<br />
legs. Causes of this could be infection, an allergic<br />
reaction, immune mediated disease (where the<br />
body kills off its own cells) or cancer. Fine needles<br />
aspirates (FNA’s) were taken of Moya’s lymph<br />
nodes and sent to a veterinary laboratory. Taking<br />
an FNA is a painless procedure and in the majority<br />
of animals can be done without sedation. A small<br />
needle is inserted into the tissue that you want to<br />
sample and a small amount of cells are collected<br />
and put onto a slide.<br />
Unfortunately, the results that came back from the<br />
laboratory confirmed that Moya had a malignant<br />
form of cancer known as Lymphoma. This form of<br />
cancer is one of the most commonly seen in dogs<br />
and often involves multiple organs around the<br />
body. To find out where the cancer had spread to<br />
Moya had blood tests and thoracic and abdominal<br />
x-rays and ultrasound scans performed. The<br />
Lymphoma had spread to organs within her chest<br />
and abdomen as well as within her lymph nodes –<br />
she had high stage B cell-Lymphoma.<br />
The results were discussed with her owners who<br />
decided that they would like to go ahead with<br />
treating her further. With this type of Lymphoma<br />
treatment is not surgical, but medical; usually<br />
with chemotherapy. We are in contact with a<br />
number of specialist Veterinary Oncology<br />
clinics in Australia and we<br />
contacted them straight away.<br />
Within 24 hours they had<br />
produced an entire report on<br />
Moya, her cancer and different<br />
chemotherapy options that<br />
they recommended. These<br />
treatment options varied<br />
from palliative care with<br />
steroids through to multidrug<br />
chemotherapy options.<br />
Moya’s family decided to go<br />
ahead with the preferred<br />
primary treatment option<br />
lasting 15 weeks.<br />
Moya started her<br />
chemotherapy the following<br />
day coming into the clinic<br />
every Friday for a blood<br />
test to check her red and<br />
white blood cell levels and for<br />
administration of her drugs<br />
intravenously. Throughout the<br />
entire duration of treatment,<br />
she was very well behaved and<br />
tolerated the chemotherapy<br />
drugs extremely well, with<br />
hardly any noticeable side<br />
effects. She was always ready<br />
for her treats and walk after her<br />
drugs had been given!<br />
At the end of the 15 weeks<br />
Moya was in complete remission<br />
and four weeks later still appears<br />
to be. Her owners report that<br />
she is better than ever and when she visited last<br />
week she was rolling around as normal for her<br />
tummy to be tickling whilst we were trying to<br />
take her blood test! There is a chance that the<br />
Lymphoma will come back but for the moment<br />
she is happy, has a new lease of life and is enjoying<br />
her time at home with her family.<br />
Informing a client that their special friend has<br />
a form of cancer, is one of the awful parts of<br />
my job. It is such a dreaded disease with often<br />
fatal consequences and often at the time of<br />
diagnosis, the disease has well advanced. Due<br />
to many cancers having<br />
malignant potential, speed<br />
of diagnosis and treatment<br />
is necessary to have any<br />
chance of remission. Many<br />
hard decisions have to be<br />
made and that is when you<br />
can rely on us to do our job.<br />
We have the necessary skills<br />
and diagnostics to diagnose<br />
the type of cancer your pet<br />
has and then we employ<br />
the specialized services of<br />
Oncology consultants in<br />
Australia to get the most<br />
successful chemotherapy<br />
protocol for your pet. That’s<br />
often the hardest part<br />
as the administration of<br />
chemotherapy usually goes<br />
really smoothly. Pets rarely<br />
have side effects, the drugs<br />
are painless if given properly,<br />
your pet is treated as an<br />
outpatient and we often see<br />
improvement quickly, if we are<br />
going to be successful. I have<br />
first hand experience in the<br />
process as my beautiful dog<br />
Lola developed kidney cancer<br />
last year and received four<br />
rounds of chemo. If anyone<br />
wants to discuss the process<br />
of cancer diagnosis and<br />
treatment for your pet, please<br />
give the clinic a call.<br />

AN OLD single-storey<br />
building has been<br />
transformed into a new<br />
two-storey retail and<br />
commercial centre.<br />
Designed by Cymon<br />
Allfrey Architects Ltd,<br />
a rebuilt retail centre in<br />
Hornby will feature a retail<br />
area on the first floor and a<br />
studio space on the second.<br />
The centre based on the<br />
intersection of Main South<br />
Rd and Garvins Rd will<br />
have a downstairs area<br />
housing a hairdresser, fish<br />
and chip shop and restaurant.<br />
Tenants for the retail<br />
centre are still being finalised.<br />
NAI Harcourts real estate<br />
agent Mike Tapley said<br />
the studio space on the second<br />
floor could be divided<br />
into a gym and office.<br />
He said the building was<br />
close to completion and<br />
was hoping to receive a<br />
code of compliance certificate<br />
from the city council<br />
over the next two weeks.<br />
The business owners<br />
Kaushik Nalin Patel and<br />
Manta Kaushik Patel<br />
applied for the resource<br />
COMING SOON: A newly-rebuilt double-storey<br />
retail centre is set to open in the next few weeks in<br />
Hornby.<br />
consent on March 10 last<br />
year.<br />
The former single<br />
building which housed a<br />
dairy, Thai restaurant and<br />
fish and chip shop was<br />
demolished so the new<br />
two-storey building could<br />
be rebuilt.<br />
Mr Tapely said the former<br />
building was “tacky as<br />
anything” and a “terrible<br />
old place” before it was<br />
demolished.<br />
The new centre leased<br />
by Harcourts will include<br />
associated car parking,<br />
48m 2 of signage and landscaping.<br />
Along the eastern side of<br />
the site will be car-parking<br />
and access both to Main<br />
South Rd and Garvins Rd<br />
with 17 on-site car-parking<br />
spaces.<br />
relationship<br />
property, employment law and resolving contractual<br />
and estate disputes.<br />

Mr Tapley said all traffic<br />
issues will be mitigated<br />
with a 10min car park<br />
outside the shop, car parks<br />
around the back of the<br />
building and down the<br />
road.<br />
The report prepared<br />
by traffic engineer Novo<br />
Group Ltd’s planner Andrew<br />
Fitzgerald said the<br />
proposal’s potential effects<br />
on the surrounding environment<br />
would be minor<br />
at most.<br />

Tap dancers’ amazing feat<br />
Car park price<br />
fair – varsity<br />
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />
YEARS OF training to<br />
transform his feet into musical<br />
instruments has paid off for<br />
18-year-old Josh Wadley.<br />
The former Burnside High<br />
School student claimed the<br />
top prize in tap dancing at the<br />
National Young Performer<br />
Awards.<br />
Josh won the overall prize<br />
of $5000, beating 49 of New<br />
Zealand’s top tap dancers aged<br />
15 to 21.<br />
“I think it went extremely<br />
well. I was very happy with<br />
how I danced and felt that I left<br />
everything I could on the stage.<br />
It was great to have my hard<br />
work pay off,” he said.<br />
Josh trained under Daniel<br />
Sintes and is now based in<br />
Sydney, where he’s studying<br />
a full-time dance course at<br />
performing arts centre, Village<br />
on Broadway.<br />
His next goal is to travel to<br />
the United States to take part<br />
in tap festivals, including the<br />
Los Angeles Tap Festival and<br />
TapCity in New York.<br />
“I am one day hoping to<br />
become a professional dancer<br />
touring the world performing in<br />
shows,” he said.<br />
Josh said he also enjoys<br />

teaching and would love to have<br />
his own dance school or show<br />
one day.<br />
His mother, Michelle Wadley,<br />
said her son had grown up with<br />
tap dancing but went over to<br />
Sydney to strengthen his other<br />
forms of dance.<br />
“He was extremely shy so<br />
I didn’t think he would ever<br />
dance on stage, but (he) proved<br />
me wrong,” she said.<br />
As part of the competition,<br />
each dancer was required to<br />
take part in a masterclass by the<br />
adjudicators, perform a threespeed<br />
dance solo and a solo of<br />
their own choice.<br />
Meanwhile, current Burnside<br />
High students Will Perkins and<br />
Bayley Graham, both 16, were<br />
awarded second and third place<br />
respectively.<br />
Both dancers said they felt the<br />
competition went well with Will<br />
winning $3000 in second place<br />
and Bayley winning $1500 in<br />
third.<br />
Will trained under JK Dance<br />
Works and Bayley with Jan<br />
Ruardy.<br />
In the future, Will is looking<br />
to compete in national dance<br />
championships, including<br />
Hollywood Bound in Australia,<br />
while Bayley is looking at<br />
competitions in Sydney and<br />
Melbourne.<br />
“I really like being in front<br />
of audiences so anything that<br />
makes me happy I love doing.<br />
So I’d like to keep it up,” Bayley<br />
said.<br />
Christchurch Tap Dancing<br />
Teachers’ Association president<br />
Tracey Wilson said the boys<br />
danced their hearts out.<br />
She said the city had six tap<br />
dancers at the competition and<br />
achieved an amazing feat by<br />
taking out the top three places.<br />
•From page 1<br />
Next year, students will be expected<br />
to pay $350 per year, $400<br />
per year in 2<strong>01</strong>8 and $475 in 2<strong>01</strong>9.<br />
Canterbury University staff will<br />
be expected to pay $600 next year,<br />
$800 in 2<strong>01</strong>8 and $1000 in 2<strong>01</strong>9.<br />
Ilam and Upper Riccarton Residents’<br />
Association chairman Peter<br />
Harding (right)<br />
said he felt sorry<br />
for the university<br />
having to resort to<br />
such extremes to<br />
attract revenue.<br />
“If I was brutally<br />
honest it shows<br />
a measure of desperation on the<br />
university’s part.<br />
“We both know they would<br />
probably prefer not to do that. But<br />
I don’t think they believe they have<br />
any other choice,” he said.<br />
Waimairi Rd resident and member<br />
of the residents’ association<br />
Richard English said the increase<br />
would have ramifications on all<br />
affected parties.<br />
“It is certainly going to drive<br />
more people onto the street of<br />
course. From a resident’s point of<br />
view it is not helpful and some of<br />
the fees do seem to be quite steep,”<br />
he said.<br />
The resident association will hold<br />
a meeting to see what can be done<br />
about the issue.<br />
Spotted any lonely cones?<br />
There are a lot of lost, lonely road cones out there. We want to bring them home.<br />
We’re tidying up the streets as the SCIRT programme winds down.<br />
Please help us track down stray cones no longer on the job. We’ll put them back to<br />
work, or send them off to the giant cone melting pot in the sky.<br />
The CONEMOBILE is coming your way.<br />
SCIRT’s CONEMOBILE is hitting the streets to collect any road cones that have gone<br />
astray. Let us know if you’ve spotted a lost or wayward cone.<br />

Focusing on the issues<br />
We will be<br />
asking the city<br />
councillors in<br />
the western<br />
area to give<br />
us their views<br />
on issues. This<br />
week Hornby<br />
councillor<br />
Jimmy Chen<br />
talks about being elected<br />
and what he intends to do<br />
over the next three years<br />
I would like to take this opportunity<br />
to express my sincere<br />
appreciation to the people of the<br />
Hornby Ward for voting for me<br />
once again and for giving me the<br />
opportunity to represent you on<br />
the city council.<br />
I received 3416 votes, and each<br />
of these votes represents the<br />
people of my community who<br />
showed trust in me, supported<br />
me and voted for me. I promise<br />
that I’ll continue do my best to<br />
serve you and to provide you<br />
with quality advice and information<br />
about the city council’s<br />
services.<br />
As a councillor for the next<br />
three years, I’ll focus on the following<br />
issues citywide:<br />
•Implementation of the housing<br />
policy – ensuring everyone<br />
has warm, dry, and affordable<br />
housing<br />
•Implementation of the multicultural<br />
strategy – I want to<br />
ensure every single person in the<br />
city has a sense of belonging<br />
•Build new cycleway facilities<br />
•Strengthening the international<br />
relationships between the<br />
city and our sister and friendly<br />
cities in tourism, international<br />
education, science and technology,<br />
economic development and<br />
cultural exchange<br />
At a local level for Hornby:<br />
•Build a new Hornby Library,<br />
service centre and south-west<br />
pool<br />
•Improve the traffic situation<br />
and ensure all pedestrians can<br />
cross the road safely<br />
•Clean drinking water – I want<br />
people to be able to turn on their<br />
tap and have no fear about it being<br />
unsafe to drink<br />
•Ongoing monitoring of the<br />
quarry issue (Canterbury Aggregate<br />
Producers Group resource<br />
consent application was refused<br />
by the joint Hearings Commissioners,<br />
and Isaac and Selwyn’s<br />
Quarry have logged appeals to<br />
the decision to refuse CAPG consent<br />
to quarry up to 4m into our<br />
groundwater in mid-September<br />
2<strong>01</strong>6)<br />
•Continue to monitor the issue<br />
of Templeton Golf Course land<br />
swap with an old quarry site<br />
•Continue to monitor the<br />
Ruapuna Noise Management<br />
Plan issue<br />
Other priorities:<br />
•I want the city council’s<br />
decision-making to be more open<br />
and transparent through the engagement<br />
and consultation with<br />
residents<br />
As you maybe aware, the vision<br />
of our city is a great place where<br />
people want to be; and the values<br />
of the city council is one team,<br />
making it happen with integrity<br />
and passion.<br />
I am genuinely looking<br />
forward to working together<br />
with the mayor, my fellow<br />
councillors, community board<br />
members and staff to serve our<br />
residents and to help in creating<br />
great benefits for this city and the<br />
community.<br />
FLAME FILES<br />
Remember the citywide<br />
ban on outside fires<br />
• By Mark Thomas – Fire<br />
Risk Management Officer<br />
SUPPOSEDLY WE’RE zeroing<br />
in on summer now although<br />
some days it certainly doesn’t<br />
feel like it.<br />
A reminder that in the city<br />
boundaries there is a permanent<br />
ban on outside fires and we’re<br />
sort of obliged to put any fire out<br />
that we’re called to.<br />
I say sort of obliged because<br />
our officers are generally pretty<br />
decent people and quite often<br />
leave a small fire like a brazier<br />
to the occupants to put out<br />
themselves rather than involve<br />
a high-revving fire pump and<br />
have firefighters stomp all over a<br />
section.<br />
They do this at the risk of<br />
being lied to and ignored. The<br />
second time called back to<br />
the same fire their attitude is<br />
generally much less obliging.<br />
Ducklings, a dog stuck in<br />
a fence and an injured swan<br />
featured in animal rescues<br />
carried out by city crews this<br />
week.<br />
For good measure they were<br />
again called to pluck a<br />
trapped drone from the top of<br />
a tree.<br />
These are sure to increase as<br />
aerial tools and toys become<br />
more and more prevalent. Just<br />
a word of advice to would-be<br />
pilots.<br />
There are an awful lot of trees<br />
that are much taller than our<br />
tallest ladder.<br />
Hornby Hub had an<br />
evacuation last Thursday<br />
evening, caused, it seems, by<br />
a spray tanning operation in a<br />
beauty shop setting off the fire<br />
detection system.<br />

WESTERN NEWS Tuesday <strong>November</strong> 1 2<strong>01</strong>6 7<br />
Readers respond to the<br />
<strong>Western</strong> <strong>News</strong> article<br />
on a proposed Lamb &<br />
Hayward funeral home to<br />
be established on Halswell<br />
Junction Rd<br />
Margaret and Tony Reiha<br />
– This is a residential area with<br />
beautiful homes – people have<br />
spent a lot of money to build a<br />
lovely home in a new area and<br />
this will bring the prices down<br />
considerably.<br />
The traffic will be horrific causing<br />
accidents at the roundabouts.<br />
We had considered shifting from<br />
our home in Westlake to the<br />
Longhurst area or surrounding<br />
areas to be a little closer to our<br />
family who also live in Longhurst<br />
and Halswell but most certainly<br />
wouldn’t entertain that area at all<br />
should this go ahead.<br />
This is residential not a business<br />
area. There are plenty of<br />
business areas for this funeral<br />
home to build on else where<br />
– who wants to be reminded<br />
daily of death and the increase<br />
in traffic every day. Think about<br />
all the little children as well and I<br />
understand a school is to be built<br />
across from this – no thanks.<br />
Stuart and Alison<br />
Westoby – Although not living<br />
in the immediate vicinity but a<br />
little further west along Halswell<br />
Junction Rd we have no objection<br />
to a funeral home being established.<br />
There are few funeral facilities<br />
in the Halswell area apart<br />
from local churches leading to<br />
considerable travel to attend most<br />
funerals. For people to claim<br />
“cultural values” and “religious<br />
beliefs” as a reason to oppose is<br />
frankly clutching at straws if this<br />
is the best reason they can come<br />
up with. Death occurs in all<br />
cultures and some sort of service<br />
or celebration of life usually takes<br />
place. This is another example of<br />
nimbyism at its worst.<br />
Gary Knight – In<br />
consideration of the majority of<br />
funeral homes situated in sites<br />
not encroaching on residential<br />
properties the proposed Lamb<br />
& Hayward addition to Halswell<br />
Junction Rd is a retrograde step.<br />
This insensitive siting will not<br />
only have a negative impact on resale<br />
value for adjacent homeowners,<br />
create congested traffic issues<br />
but is also demeaning for those<br />
having cultural values or religious<br />
beliefs opposing having a funeral<br />
home so close to a living area.<br />
In spite of parochial views by<br />
Lamb & Hayward noting the<br />
advantage of a funeral home<br />
and chapel within a community<br />
environment, the 500-strong petition<br />
opposing it would suggest<br />
otherwise.<br />
Given the myriad of land opportunities<br />
within a growing and<br />
expanding south-west surely an<br />
appropriate sector of land could<br />
be purchased by this commercial<br />
entity for the proposed 1222<br />
sq m funeral home comprising<br />
two chapels, memorial gardens ,<br />
lounge, administration block and<br />
a 181 car park site.<br />
Readers respond to<br />
<strong>Western</strong> <strong>News</strong>’ article<br />
on the Quarryman’s Trail<br />
cycleway potentially<br />
removing car parks,<br />
changing speed limits and<br />
road layouts.<br />
James McKee – We think<br />
it’s a dumb idea and a total waste<br />
of funds. When the cyclists are<br />
charged for using the road then<br />
we should look at it.<br />
But they are a bunch of whining<br />
kids who want everything for<br />
free. The taxpaying road users are<br />
about to be screwed again and<br />
the ratepayers are screwed twice.<br />
Maybe the council can start licensing<br />
bikes and use the money<br />
for upgrades.<br />
Brian Roberts – With<br />
reference to the article in <strong>Western</strong><br />
<strong>News</strong> I have a few questions:<br />
1. Has anyone done any<br />
research into how many cyclists<br />
will use this facility. Will it be<br />
only on fine days and the car<br />
brought out for winter?<br />
2. Does it take the needs of<br />
cyclists to have two roundabouts<br />
removed and replaced with traffic<br />
lights when motorists have put up<br />
with the roundabouts for years?<br />
The bicycle lobbyists seem to<br />
think that the city can be taken<br />
back to the 1950s and we will all<br />
ride bikes again.<br />
Has no one told them that you<br />
can never go back. The car is here<br />
to stay and that is a fact of life.<br />
They give no thought to the<br />
old and infirm and their needs<br />
but only see the Holy Grail of<br />
a car-less society. It is time that<br />
some of them grew up.<br />
One hopes that common sense<br />
will prevail.<br />
Michael Brathwaite –<br />
Regarding the Quarryman’s<br />
Trail, while I do not object to<br />
cycle lanes in principle, I do<br />
object to the removal of any<br />
parking spaces, the closure of<br />
street entrances to motorists, and<br />
the lowering of speed limits.<br />
I am on a list of people to<br />
whom the city council is supposed<br />
to send emails regarding<br />
issues like this but, while they<br />
advise me of proposed changes<br />
in places to which I seldom go,<br />
such as Linwood, I never seem to<br />
hear about ones in my area, and<br />
I’m certain I heard nothing about<br />
this one.<br />
On Labour Day, when driving<br />
along Brougham St, I noticed<br />
Collins St had been closed. There<br />
had been a lot of discussion about<br />
it in the local papers recently and<br />
the community board recently<br />
asked the city council to lower<br />
the speed limit there.<br />
However, I suspect it has all<br />
been an orchestrated smokescreen,<br />
because when I rang the<br />
city council about it, I learned<br />
that they had decided in February<br />
to stop motorists turning<br />
into it to avoid the traffic jams<br />
where three lanes merge into two,<br />
and that it is to become part of a<br />
cycleway.<br />
I fully sympathise with shop<br />
owners who will lose business<br />
when customers can no longer<br />
park near their shops. They will<br />
probably be forced to cycle as<br />
they will not be able to afford to<br />
run cars anymore.<br />

Brightest young sporting talent<br />
THE 26 TH Zonta secondary schools<br />
sports awards dinner was held on<br />
Thursday night.<br />
The annual event, initiated by the<br />
Zonta Club of Christchurch South<br />
in 1990 to celebrate the sporting<br />
achievements of talented young<br />
Cantabrians, is a highlight of the year<br />
for award winners.<br />
For many, recognition at the awards<br />
heralds the beginning of long-standing<br />
and highly successful international<br />
careers.<br />
The judging of the awards was<br />
undertaken this year by Anita<br />
Sutherland, Mike De Bono, Jon Peters,<br />
MOST VALUABLE SPORTSMAN:<br />
Burnside High School first XV<br />
captain Cam Russell (right) took<br />
out the most valuable contribution<br />
to a team by a young sportsman<br />
award. Russell was the co-winner<br />
of this year’s UC Championship<br />
player of the year award. The<br />
flanker played well in excess of<br />
50 games for Burnside in his four<br />
seasons with the first XV. After first<br />
making the squad as a year 10<br />
student in 2<strong>01</strong>3, Russell went on to<br />
captain the team in 2<strong>01</strong>5. The year<br />
13 student has also been a part of<br />
the Crusaders Knights under-18<br />
development programme and<br />
this year helped Burnside win<br />
the South Island co-ed school<br />
championship.<br />
SPORTS<br />
Aaron Webb and Dave Harrison. They<br />
had the challenging task of selecting<br />
finalists and winners from a total of<br />
150 nominations (counting teams as<br />
one) received from 21 schools in the<br />
Canterbury area, including Kaikoura,<br />
North Canterbury and the West Coast.<br />
Zonta International is a service<br />
organisation, made up of business and<br />
professional women, committed to raising<br />
the status of women worldwide.<br />
This is undertaken through service,<br />
advocacy and fundraising to support<br />

School volleyball team<br />
were rewarded for their<br />
national dominance<br />
over the last two years,<br />
taking home the most<br />
outstanding team of<br />
young sportswomen<br />
award. They shared the<br />
award with Villa Maria.<br />
Burnside won their<br />
second straight national<br />
title in Palmerston<br />
North in April. They<br />
defeated Tauranga<br />
Girls’ College in a tight<br />
four-set tournament<br />
final 3-1 (25-19, 25-27,<br />
25-22, 26-24).<br />
BEST SPORTSWOMAN: The ability to<br />
turn heads on the netball court and the<br />
water has seen St Margaret’s College<br />
student Lily Marshall (left) win the best<br />
all-round young sportswoman award.<br />
The highlight for Marshall came earlier<br />
in the year when she was named in<br />
the New Zealand secondary school<br />
netball team. The defender captained<br />
her school at the national secondary<br />
school tournament in Hutt Valley<br />
this month, where the team finished<br />
seventh. Marshall also represented<br />
St Margaret’s at this year’s Maadi Cup<br />
national secondary school rowing<br />
championship. She was part of the<br />
eight which finished second in the<br />
Levin Jubilee Cup final. The year 13<br />
student also competed in a four which<br />
finished in the top 10 at the regatta.<br />

OUTSTANDING YOUNG SPORTSWOMEN: Villa Maria<br />
College’s first XI hockey team also won the most<br />
outstanding team of young sportswomen award after<br />
securing their first ever national title this year. In September,<br />
the team won the Christchurch schools’ premier league<br />
before capturing their maiden Federation Cup title in<br />
Auckland. The team had only one loss over the entire<br />
season against St Margaret’s College in the premier league.<br />
It was also the perfect farewell for six students who played<br />
their final season for the school.<br />
The St Andrew’s College clay target shooting team of Jacob<br />
Warnock, Lyndon Arundell, Jimmy Field, Mason Gardener<br />
and Laurence Arundell won the most outstanding team of<br />
young sportsmen award. They made history recently when<br />
they won the team points title at the New Zealand secondary<br />
school trap shooting championships. They scored 295/300<br />
points, which has never been achieved before.<br />
Middleton Grange student<br />
William Stedman took home<br />
two Zonta sports awards.<br />
Stedman won the award for<br />
most outstanding achievement<br />
by a young sportsman with a<br />
disability. He then received<br />
the biggest award – most<br />
outstanding achievement by a<br />
young sportsman specialising<br />
in one sport. The 16-year-old became a double<br />
Olympic medallist this year when he won bronze<br />
in both the men’s 400m T36 and men’s 800m T36<br />
final at the Rio Paralympics. Stedman, who has<br />
cerebral palsy, also competed in the long jump at<br />
Rio.<br />

in their community for a minimum of 12 months, working<br />
on a skill of their choice, travelling away for four days and<br />
three nights, taking part in a physical recreation activity for a<br />
minimum of 12 months and engaging in a purposeful activity<br />
away from home for five days such as environmental work.<br />
Deputy principal Shane Morrow said it is a huge commitment<br />
of time and effort to get through to the gold award. “We’re<br />
very proud of their outstanding achievement,” he said. Last<br />

teeth, says experienced dental technician<br />

feels welcome and comfortable at Better<br />
Denture by breaking down those barriers<br />
and putting them at ease.<br />
The process of having new dentures<br />

Replacement dentures<br />
now just a phone call<br />
away with 3D technology<br />
Keeping up-to-date with the latest<br />
techniques in denture technology is<br />
one of the keys to the success of John<br />
Batchelor’s company, Duchenne Dental, so<br />
it’s no surprise that John has been closely<br />
following the development of 3D printing<br />
of dentures and dental implants.<br />
“I knew it was something that would be<br />
of enormous benefit to our patients,” he<br />
explains. “When I was confident in the<br />
advanced technology and its affordability,<br />
then I knew it would be a good option.”<br />
His research took him to the bi-annual<br />
International Dental Show in Cologne and<br />
to some of the world’s leading dental and<br />
IT companies, helping John decide that the<br />
timing was right to bring this technology to<br />
New Zealand.<br />
“I formed relationships with leading<br />
companies in dental scanning technology<br />
and 3D printing in several countries. We<br />
now have the technology and expertise to<br />
ensure our clients here in New Zealand<br />
receive world class treatment and<br />
products.”<br />
Unexpected client benefits<br />
Duchenne now 3D print all their chrome<br />
frames and partial bases, and have also<br />
started using 3D print technology in full<br />
upper and lower dentures.<br />
John says there are numerous benefits<br />
to Duchenne’s clients, including<br />
providing patients with a quicker and<br />
more economical service, and dentures<br />
and implants that are more accurate and<br />
personalised.<br />
“A bonus is that all models are stored<br />
digitally so wherever you are, if you need<br />
a replacement denture or tooth, we can<br />
quickly and easily print one. And in many<br />
cases patients don’t even need to visit the<br />
surgery!”<br />
Duchenne Dental has manufactured over<br />
300 partial dentures and both they and<br />
their patients are delighted with the results.<br />

Arthritis, it could surprise you!<br />
Pine bark may support brain<br />
function<br />
Recent news from Auckland University<br />
of Technology has people excited about a<br />
pine bark extract called Enzogenol. AUT<br />
reported that patients suffering memory<br />
loss and other brain problems after a<br />
traumatic brain injury recovered better<br />
when taking Enzogenol compared to a<br />
control group.<br />
Enzogenol is not a new product, though.<br />
In fact, it was developed at Canterbury<br />
University and has been in our health<br />
food shops for over 10 years. According to<br />
ENZO Nutraceuticals, the company that<br />
produces the product, a number of research<br />
studies have shown how Enzogenol can<br />
help improve brain function and support<br />
healthy blood circulation.<br />
The amazing thing is, it is made from<br />
the bark of New Zealand Pinus Radiata<br />
with an extraction method that uses only<br />
purified water. Apparently, the pine bark<br />
is full of healthy plant compounds that<br />
are naturally part of our diet when we eat<br />
fruits and vegetables. Yet, the pine bark is<br />
loaded with these natural antioxidant and<br />
anti-inflammatory compounds and makes<br />
a great starting material for this health<br />
product. Keen on a chewing a bit of pine<br />
bark?<br />

“Treadle” for<br />
Healthy Feet<br />
“Treadling” on an Aircycle circulation booster is a highly effective<br />
way to keep your feet healthy,” says Lynne Taylor, Manager of<br />
Diabetes Christchurch.<br />
Maintaining good blood<br />
flow in the feet is key to<br />
preventative foot care<br />
and is simple with an<br />
Aircycle. The “treadle”<br />
exercise works the calf<br />
muscles and pumps the<br />
blood.<br />
“It’s in our feet that<br />
arthritis, complications of<br />
diabetes, including nerve,<br />
neuropathy and circulatory<br />
disorders often show up,”<br />
says Lynne. ”It’s important<br />
to heed the first signs, as<br />
loss of feeling can mean<br />
abrasions, ulcers and<br />
other foot problems go<br />
undetected or do not<br />
heal, sometimes leading<br />
to amputation”.<br />

blood flow with the<br />

Enzogenol, is a potent natural antioxidant & anti-inflammatory, produced<br />
from an extract of the New Zealand pine bark. In one study researchers<br />
concluded it can reduce the average age of the brain by 12 years in as<br />
little as 5 weeks. Studies show it can improve response time as well as<br />
long & short term memory, concentration & brain performance. Enzogenol<br />
also helps protect the body from the aging process, including supporting<br />
the cardiovascular, nervous system & improving recovery after illness.<br />
ENZO:PROFESSIONAL contains 240mg of Enzogenol + 30mg Vitamin C.<br />
It is the most potent Enzogenol formula available.<br />

Improve Prostate<br />
Health Naturally!<br />
The prostate is a small<br />
walnut shaped male organ<br />
located beneath the urinary<br />
bladder and wrapped around<br />
the urethra or urinary tube.<br />
It is of little significance for<br />
most men until the late 40’s<br />
when for a large percentage<br />
of men it tends to enlarge<br />
and affect normal urination<br />
by restricting flow through the<br />
urethra. This condition is known<br />
as Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia or BPH.<br />
BPH reduces the ability of the bladder<br />
to evacuate completely causing common<br />
symptoms like wanting to urinate more<br />
frequently (especially annoying at night<br />
and as it affects sleep quality), difficulty<br />
starting urination, dribbling after urination<br />
and pain with urination.<br />
The word benign in BPH is very<br />
significant as it means an enlargement of<br />
the prostate that isn’t cancer. However BPH<br />
should always be diagnosed by a M.D.,<br />
as there is always the chance of prostate<br />
cancer. Once diagnosed as BPH it can often<br />
be managed quite well with herbal and<br />
nutritional remedies and without the side<br />
effects of prescription drugs used for this<br />
condition.<br />
Saw Palmetto is a herb that has been<br />
used for centuries for BPH of the prostate.<br />
A review of 18 doubleblinded<br />
studies found an<br />
average improvement of 72%<br />
of BPH symptoms in Saw<br />
Palmetto users. Researchers<br />
have found Saw Palmetto<br />
to inhibit the formation of<br />
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT)<br />
and DHT is the main reason<br />
for the prostate to enlarge, and<br />
to be a risk factor for prostate<br />
cancer and hair loss.<br />
Phellodendron amurense inner bark is<br />
another herb that has been found to protect<br />
against BPH and recent research has shown<br />
it to be protective against prostate tumor<br />
development in laboratory studies.<br />
Lycopene is a potent antioxidant with<br />
numerous health benefits including cancer<br />
and BPH protective benefits.<br />
Fatty acids from the seeds of Pumpkin,<br />
Evening Primrose and Flax have been<br />
shown to be supportive of prostate and<br />
general good health.<br />

THE ABBA Show jets in for a full national<br />
tour this month, playing at the Isaac Theatre<br />
Royal on Wednesday 9th <strong>November</strong>.<br />
Following more than 4000 international<br />
performances to date, including recent tours of<br />
North America and South Africa, the show’s<br />
NZ tour will take in an exhausting 22 different<br />
venues in just 34 days.<br />
Far from being ‘just another cover band’,<br />
The ABBA Show is a full-scale concert<br />
experience and stage show featuring 2.5 hours<br />
of live musical performance with a live band,<br />
replica costumes, theatrical lighting and effects,<br />
and all the ABBA hits. And despite Mamma<br />
Mia (the musical) still doing the rounds,<br />
promoter John Van Grinsven from Showtime<br />
Australia is confident that fans will recognize<br />
the distinct and worthwhile experience that<br />
The ABBA Show offers.<br />
“They’re completely different shows.<br />
Mamma Mia is a great musical but The ABBA<br />
Show does more of an authentic concert<br />
experience. We’ve worked really hard to make<br />
it just the way the fans will remember it if they<br />
were lucky enough to see the originals perform<br />
live. It really is a unique show.”<br />
