Mona Vale restoration
‘sentimental’ for Gough
• By Caitlin Miles
TEN YEARS ago Jamie Gough
held his 21st celebrations at Mona
Vale Homestead and his mother,
Helen, donated a park bench in his
name.
Yesterday, the city councillor
was back to cut the ribbon, for the
opening of the historic building.
Originally built in 1899, the
homestead had to be restored after
the September 4, 2010, and February
22, 2011, earthquakes, severely
damaged it.
The link to the homestead goes
as far back as Cr Gough’s greatgrandfather.
Tracy Thomas Gough, purchased
the property in the 1930s and later
sold it. He added the guest house
at the west entrance and offered it
free of charge to the city council
as a place of residence for visiting
dignitaries.
Cr Gough’s parents got engaged
and had their wedding reception
at the homestead, while earlier this
year Cr Gough had his wedding
photos taken in the grounds.
With a long-standing family
connection to the property, Cr
Gough said it was a “sentimental”
day.
“It was very special to open my
great-grandfather’s home. I think
if he had been here today he would
have been pretty chuffed,’’ he said.
Restoration work was carried
out on the fernery, bathhouse, and
lodge as part of the $2.8 million
project.
Different parts of the grounds
and buildings have been completed
at various times, with the homestead
being the second to last part
of the project to be completed. The
gatehouse is still being restored.

HORNBY IS booming.
And it is no surprise since the
February 22, 2011, earthquakes
gutted the central city of 50,000
workers combined with many
eastern suburbs residential redzoners
also opting to move west.
With all this population movement
comes retail needs including
supermarkets, and this has been
responsible for the retail boom out
Hornby way.
Reporter Gabrielle Stuart looks
into the latest data released from
Infometrics that predicts that
south-west of the city, including
Hornby, is expected to have the
third highest population growth
over seven years.
It is fantastic to hear from the
retailers she speaks to that, that
they are opting for Hornby instead
of Merivale and the likes. Check
out their reasons on page 5.

Bus route winners, losers
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
FRUSTRATED Greycliffe St
residents will no longer have
to put up with buses driving
through their quiet street.
But the burden has now been
passed onto residents on Murphys
Rd instead.
The Greater Christchurch
Public Transport Committee on
Wednesday to approved an extension
of the Orange Line bus
service through the residential
area of Murphys Rd.
In September Western News
reported the buses were a contentious
issue with Greycliffe
St residents who did not want
buses travelling along their quiet
residential street.
Environment Canterbury
asked for public feedback on the
proposed Orange Line extension.
Documents show a battle between
Greycliffe St and Murphy
Rd residents to keep the buses
off their respective streets.
Out of 134 submissions made,
51 per cent voted for the bus to
go through Murphys Rd while
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
FORTY DANCERS from a
Sockburn ballet school were
selected to perform with
the Imperial Russian Ballet
Company last weekend.
Dancers from the Sharon
Howells School of Ballet were on
stage at the Isaac Theatre Royal
in various roles as mice, horse
riders, angels and gnomes.
In the spirit of the festive season,
the pupils aged 6-13 years
and the Russian ballet company
presented the Christmas story of
The Nutcracker.
Director Sharon Howells said
her pupils were “very busy little
bees” leading up to the show.
She said the students had
just one rehearsal before they
performed on stage with the

Russian ballet company.
“It was wonderful. The kids
were really good off stage and
on stage. When you are in
something like that you have to
learn to adapt very fast. So the
learning kerb was enormous for
these children,” she said.
She described The Nutcracker
45 per cent voted for the bus to
go through Greycliffe St. Two
per cent voted neither option.
Therefore Murphys Rd will
have the extended bus route
through their street.
The route is via Patterson Tce,
Alvaston Drive, Caulfield Ave
through to Richmond Ave.
Concerns raised from the submissions
included buses speeding
along Murphys Rd which
is 70km/h, the drop in value of
properties, and the buses creating
noise.
Greycliffe St resident Helen
Smith, who lives near where it
intersects with Murphys Rd,
said she felt sorry for Murphys
Rd residents.
She said she thought the project
was handled badly.

Mrs Smith said her family will
be moving out of the area due to
the buses still being nearby and
plans showing a bus stop is likely
to be placed near her house with
the new route.
Originally the buses were
planned to go along Hamill Rd
onto Caulfield Ave and Richmond
Ave.
But buses could not turn properly
on the corner of Hamill Rd
and Caulfield Ave, which is the
retail area of Longhurst.
In 2014, a temporary route
was created for the Orange Line
because roads in the subdivision
were not completed.
Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton
community board member Ross
McFarlane said it was a “no-win”
situation as people who bought
houses on the street never
envisaged buses to be near their
homes.

Ballet students perform with professionals
children. As far as audience
goes you will feel as if they have
touched you. Their technique is
one thing but they have a feeling
they do it for the public,” Miss
Howells said.
The school was told by Imperial
Russian Ballet Company
deputy director coach Vitautas
Taranda they were one of the
best schools the company had
worked with.
She said her pupils were
thrilled to perform three concerts
after an extra show was
added into the programme due
to the support from audiences.
The show is based on E.T.A.
Hoffman’s story The Nutcracker
and the King of Mice and tells
the story of a young German
girl who dreams of a Nutcracker
Prince.
In Brief
PARKING RESTRICTIONS
Parking restrictions are
likely to be installed outside
the former St Nicholas Care
Home site. The restrictions
would be placed along
Kirkwood Ave, between Clyde
Rd and the old St Nicholas
Care Home site. The former
hospital has been turned into
Canterbury University student
accommodation. The Halswell-
Hornby-Riccarton Community
Board has put in a request to
council staff to report back on
the parking restrictions. It was
to address residents’ concerns
on the conversion of the care
home into a student hostel. In
February, 74 students will move
in to the site for the academic
year.
LIQUOR STORE HEARING
A hearing will be held
after Riccarton residents
raised concerns about the
establishment of a new
off-licence liquor store
on 76 Riccarton Rd, next
to the Ministry of Social
Development’s Work and
Income New Zealand. The
application lodged by PM
Liquors Ltd has been opposed
by residents, the medical officer
of health and police. Western
News reported in October
residents were concerned about
the number of liquor outlets
based along Riccarton Rd and
the close proximity to WINZ.
The hearing will be held by the
District Licensing Committee
on February 17.
BIRTHDAY EVENT
Celebrations were held at Te
Hapua: Halswell Centre on
Saturday, after it turned one
year old. Performances from
Takumi Japanese drummers,
storytimes for pre-schoolers
and a performance from the
Halswell Drama Group were
part of the event. Planning for
the $23 million centre began in
2009 to replace the old Halswell

Courtney McGregor
Olympic gymnast returns home
Courtney McGregor, 18, caught the nation’s
attention at the Rio Olympics. Fraser Walker-Pearce
talked to the gymnast about how she found out
she had been selected for Rio, the United States
college system and what it’s like to be back home
in Halswell again
Hi Courtney, you’ve had an
incredible year. What was it like
competing at the Olympics?
The Olympics was amazing.
It was a lot of hard work to get
there in the first place and I just
hoped I’d be there. So to get on
the team was amazing. We were
aiming for top 16 and I managed
13th and had no major mistakes
so that was pretty awesome.
How long has it been a dream
for you to compete at the
Olympics?
Oh wow, for a long time.
Definitely from a really young
age, from maybe six or seven.
I always thought I’d go to the
Olympics, I always just assumed
I’d go as kids do. I figured out as
time went on that it was a little
harder than I initially thought it
was.
And when did you actually
think it was possible that you
could become an Olympic
athlete?
I think it was at the 2015
worlds’ competition. I did better
than anyone thought. I think
probably after that test event, I
had to get a certain all-round
score and when I got that I
thought that it could be a possibility,
but I still had to get a lot
checked off. I still remember the
call we got from the GymSport
New Zealand chief executive
officer; he told us we weren’t allowed
to tell anyone and we had
to Facetime (video call) him to
find out whether I was in or out.
He called my mum and I, and he
told us I was going. I was only
allowed to tell immediate family
and it was at least three or four
days walking around telling my
school mates that I didn’t know
yet before I could tell people.
That must have been hard!
What happened after you were
selected for the team?
I got flown up to Auckland
where they announced the
gymnastics team, all of us were
announced. There was a lot of
media there that day and we
must have each told our life story
about 10 times.
Talking to other Christchurch
gymnasts, they were all excited
to hear you were on your way
back from college in the United
States. How do you handle
being a role model for younger
gymnasts?
It’s pretty cool I think, and
kind of surreal. I went into the
Christchurch School of Gymnastics
and all the wee kids were
all excited and happy to see me
which was cool. Then I went over
to Olympia (Gymnastic Sports)
to see a friend who is a coach
there and I saw her little girls
and they were all excited as well.
You’re at home at the
moment, but when that’s
finished you’ll head back to the
United States?
Yes. At the moment I’m based
over at Boise State University in
the US on a gymnastics scholarship.
So that starts back up in
January, so I’ll be heading back
over there soon.
What are the big
competitions you’ll be looking
forward to in both college and
New Zealand next year?
Next year there is the 2017
worlds in Montreal, Canada,
which is kind of close to
where I am. And also the
Commonwealth Games in 2018.
But I think that might interfere
with some of the college events.
So you might miss the
Commonwealth Games? That’s
a bit annoying?
It’s just that it coincides with
the college gymnastics season.
TOP GYMNAST: Courtney McGregor is back in Halswell visiting
family after representing New Zealand in the Rio Olympics.
PHOTO: GEOFF SLOAN
They always have regionals and
nationals and that kind of thing
at the end of their season so it
might clash.
What was seeing younger
gymnasts at your old club like?
It was pretty special. It’s kind
of crazy that I now inspire the
younger kids when I was in their
shoes a few years ago. Some clubs
haven’t had the most successful
events recently, but they’ve got
good programmes in place and
I think they’ll be doing fine soon.
Tell me a bit about some of
the young kids’ reactions to
seeing you?
Some were really shy when
they came up, but some were
really confident. So it was quite
funny seeing their reactions and
quite cool that they look up to
me.
And are you studying a
subject over at Boise State as
well?
Yes, I’m doing a lot of studying
on general things, but I’m also
doing health science. The set up
is kind of different over there as
compared to in New Zealand.
So are you aiming to become
a doctor or a surgeon or
something like that?
I’m not 100 per cent sure yet,
but I might want to be a doctor.
There’s so many schools over
here I really don’t know which
ones are the best for studying to
be a doctor.
In terms of your scholarship,
what does that cover for you?
It’s a full scholarship for
all schooling, housing and
everything. It’s pretty good to be
honest.
What school did you attend
when you were in Christchurch?
I was at Villa Maria College
for most of it and I did
correspondence for the last
couple. I think that school
is more important than
gymnastics, as it was my top
priority and correspondence
allowed me to get on with my
work and then I had time to do
gym after. It just cut out all of the
assemblies and hour-long lunch
times and that kind of thing – it
really worked for me.
Did you get to meet quite a
few famous people while you
were over in Rio and at college?
Yes definitely. Even in Rio
I got to meet all the final five
gymnasts and Simone Biles
(all-round vault and floor gold
medallist from the US) and
everyone like that and I get to
see them sometimes, because
most of them are in college
gymnastics now. When we were
in Rio we trained with them all,
we were in the same part of the
Olympic Village as the American
team which was great.
Do you keep in touch with a
few of them?
Yes, we talk over social media
sometimes which is nice.

Community garden to host festive dinner
• By Fleur Mealing
THIS YEAR the Riccarton West
Community Garden will spread
Christmas cheer through a
shared festive dinner.
The vision of garden
management members Loretta
and Nick Te Paa, is about
helping their community come
together during the holiday
season.
Around 100 people have been
invited to the event.
Each invitation was hand delivered
by Mr Te Paa along with
a parcel of vegetables from the
garden.
Since 2013 the community
garden on Peverel St had supplied
vegetables to the elderly
and families in need in the community.
The group works in association
with Oak Development Trust
which is managed by Carol
Renouf.
Mrs Renouf said the idea was
“absolutely fantastic”.
“We will celebrate
Christmas together as a community.”
The meal will be a chance to
put a spotlight on the value of
the community garden and its
volunteers.
The land where they grow the
vegetables has been loaned by
Housing New Zealand on a year
to year basis.
The dinner on December 9
will feature a range of fruit and
vegetables grown in the garden
as well as a ham donated by
Countdown.
Business owners laud Hornby
• By Gabrielle Stuart and
Georgia O’Connor-Harding
THE HORNBY area was once
considered low-end – but now
business owners say they would
rather be based there than
in places like Merivale or the
central city.
Kelvin Yang opened his
Cheeky Sparrow café in newly
expanded The Hub Hornby mall
a month ago.
It is one of many businesses
which have relocated to the
south-west of the city since the
earthquakes, and a new report
by data and economic analysis
company Infometrics has predicted
the boom will continue.
It predicts the number of
people living between Halswell
and Darfield will grow 85 per
cent by 2023, making it the
third-fastest growing region in
the country.
Mr Yang said he was tossing
up between opening in Merivale,
the inner city or the Hornby
area.
He chose Hornby because it
was a better place for a new business
to build a loyal customer
base, he said.
“Being a new brand competing
with established brands
in Merivale is hard. But in a
newer area as a more recently
established brand, if it is locally
owned and good quality, people
like that and they will give it a
go,” he said.
He said the rents were pretty
similar when comparing the
three locations, so that was not
much of a factor.
PREFERRED: When looking for a site for his new cafe, The Cheeky Sparrow, Kelvin Yang chose
The Hub Hornby over similar-priced sites in Merivale and the central city, because of the
growing community.

Current listings on Trade Me
for retail sites include a 178 sq m
space at Cathedral Junction for
$60,000 per year, a 239 sq m site
off Main South Rd in Hornby for
just under $60,000, and a 188
sq m shop in Fendalton village
for $66,000.
SmartyPants children’s clothing
shop owner Sarah Schaap
also chose to base her business
in the west side of the city, over
other areas.
Her shop is currently based
LAWyerS
on Nottingham Ave in Halswell,
and she plans to move to Wigram
early next year.
She considered Papanui or
Merivale when searching for a
new shop, but said the traffic issues
in the area put her off.
Wigram was easily accessible,
was drawing growing numbers
of young families and was a
strong community, she said.
“There’s quite a nice community
type feeling, so I’m keen
to be there. It’s a communityfocused
type place, where people
want to shop locally, they don’t
want to go to a mall,” she said.
The report singled out
Halswell and Wigram as areas
where there was likely to be a lot
of commercial growth, because
of “unexpected” population
growth.
It predicted Wigram would
need a high school soon, as well
as more services and commercial
spaces in the wider area.
“Over the longer-term, development
along Springs Rd is
likely to see Prebbleton, in particular,
become more and more
like a suburb of Christchurch,” it
predicted.
Halswell Community Project
chairwoman Chrys Horn said
the growth was not unexpected,
but had happened faster than
expected.
“I think the subdivisions
where there is a lot of high
density is great, but they really
need to be backed up with places
where people can work and shop
and we are lacking that, and we
have enormous traffic problems,”
she said.
Hornby Quadrant development
manager Kevin Arthur
said there had been huge
demand for commercial sites in
the development, which runs
between Main South Rd and
Springs Rd.
But although it was driven by
demand, a lot of the growth was
due to the sped-up consenting
process which made expanding
west much easier, he said.
“We were eyeing Hornby for
10 years plus prior to the earthquakes,
but to get planning consent
for industrial development
takes an awfully long time. In
one case it took us seven years.
This short-circuited the whole
system,” he said.

SPORTS
HITTING OUT: James Pearson scored 65, his first senior half century, in
Halswell’s loss to Sumner on Saturday.
PHOTO: JUNE PEARSON
Halswell make final of
one-day knockout cup
HALSWELL WILL face
off against Hornby in the
final of the Chairman’s
Cup knockout one-day
cricket competition on
Waitangi weekend after
beating Merivale Papanui
at Edgar MacIntosh Park
on Sunday.
Merivale Papanui batted
first, finishing on 169/8
from 40 overs. Hunter
Rowe (2-20) and Leighton
Johnston (2-43) were
the best of the Halswell
bowlers.
Steve Golding then
starred for Halswell with
the bat; his 71 not out
guiding his team to 170/5.
The result was
contrasted by the previous
day when Halswell lost its
Skilton Trophy one-day
match against Sumner at
St Leonards Park.
Halswell batted first after
winning the toss and got
off to a solid start, reaching
40/1 after 13 overs, but
then lost three wickets for
10 runs to be 50/4.
Blair Cotching then hit
three sixes and a four in a
quick 22 but, when he got
out, Halswell lost another
three wickets for five runs
to be 86/7.
BIG DEFENCE: The Riccarton Knights won
the Queenstown Nines Carnival in dramatic
fashion at the weekend, with extra time
required. After making their way through
pool the Knights ran into the Hornby
Panthers in the semi-final. The Knights
13-4 victory more than made up for the
heartbreak of 2015 which saw they fall to the
Panthers in the tournament final. The Knights
met the East Coast Eagles in the tournament
final after the Eagles accounted for the
Linwood Keas 26-13 in the other semi-final.
The tournament final was a nail-biter. With
the scores locked at 8-8 at full time the
tournament would be decided by a golden
point try. The Knights held their nerve to
win 12-8 in extra time and in the process
captured their first Queenstown Nine title.
James Pearson batted
well to score his first senior
half century and pushed
Halswell to 185 with
Pearson being the last man
out on 65.
Halswell started well in
the field having Sumner
7/2 but the home side
batted very well, rotating
the strike and putting
away the loose ball to the
boundary, on the way to
186/4.
Dayle Eathorne (2-28
from eight overs) and
Johnston (1-12 from nine
overs) were the best of the
Halswell bowlers.
NATIONAL STAGE: Christchurch Boys’ High School head to Auckland this
week for the Condor Sevens tournament. The current UC Championship
title holders qualified for the countries national secondary school sevens
tournament after making it to the final of the regional sevens competition
at Hoon Hay Park earlier this month. They will joined by Timaru Boys’ High
School who qualified as the second Canterbury school. The three day
tournament begins on Friday at Sacred heart College. Christchurch BHS will
play St Patrick’s Town, Thames High School and St Paul’s College in pool play.
Pupils benefit
from new sports
field donation
WHARENUI, RICCARTON and
Hornby Primary Schools are three of 11
primary schools in Canterbury to have
been gifted new sports turfs.
SKY Television has gifted the turfs to
schools that lost or incurred significant
damage to playing fields in the earthquakes.
Worth almost $20,000 each, the turfs
are part of the company’s $1 million, fiveyear
commitment to help repair the city.
SKY director of corporate communication
Kirsty Way said the turfs would
make a big difference to the schools.
“It is very important for children to be
active and outdoors and Sport Canterbury
can use these turfs to help develop
new programmes to increase sports
participation,” she said.
Sport Canterbury chief executive Julyan
Falloon said the donation will allow his
organisation to deliver new activities to
the mostly low-decile schools.
“A number of schools lost their outdoor
play areas in the earthquakes. In addition,
population shifts meant some schools
saw their decile rating change, which
meant they lost funding, while others
had an influx of pupils, resulting in new
buildings taking up space on the playing
fields,” said Falloon.
The other schools which received
turfs were Linwood North, South
New Brighton, Northcote, Waltham,
Bishopdale, Papanui, Rolleston and
Kaiapoi Borough.
SKY’s $1 million commitment to the
Christchurch Earthquake Appeal Trust
saw it give $200,000 to repair Garrick
Park, Woolston, in 2013.

Fire Service staff
remain in quake
recovery mode
Fire risk management
officer Mark Thomas talks
about the Fire Service’s
duties in Kaikoura and
Waiau, as well as some
incidents in the city
It’s certainly very different
this time. Christchurch city is
back to normal and, for most
people, it’s business as usual.
But Waiau and Kaikoura are
definitely part of our fire region
and we have a considerable
number of staff on the ground
up there.
Our Regional Control Centre
remains open and operating
and local staff are picking up
heaps of overtime to cover the
absence of those working on the
earthquake.
So it’s a matter of juggling
normal work and quake work
for those of us doing both. The
up-side is that Christchurch has
not had a terribly busy week.
Car crashes were quite high,
however, including one at Ferry
Rd and Ensors Rd on Sunday
evening, in which 11 people
were hurt, nine requiring transport
to hospital.
As usual, animal rescues became
our responsibility with a
cat stuck in a fence in Waltham
last Friday and a dog stuck
down a cliff in Dyers Pass Rd on
Monday.
In both cases, firefighters
were rewarded for their efforts
by the victims immediately
bolting once back on flat
ground. Ungrateful, but not
unexpected, I suppose.
A classic kitchen fire was
averted by luck in Sydenham on
Saturday, when a shift worker
returned home very late, put
food on to cook and promptly
fell asleep on the couch.
A smoke alarm did its job and
only smoke damage occurred.
Without the smoke alarm? Well
who knows? Tired or tiddly going
home to cook is not recommended.
Indulge yourself, buy
takeaways.
Templeton golf course plan
Hornby city
councillor Jimmy
Chen writes
about the recent
independent
hearings
panel decision
regarding Fulton
Hogan quarrying at the
Templeton golf course
I would like to take this opportunity
to share with you an
update regarding Hornby Ward
residents’ concerns about the
Templeton golf course becoming
a new quarry and an old Fulton
Hogan (FH) quarry site being
used for a new golf course.
The city council has received
decisions from the independent
hearings panel on the following
matters to replace some of the
provisions of the Christchurch
City District Plan and the Banks
Peninsula District Plan.
Decision 34: Chapter 17 – Rural
– Stage 2 (and relevant definition
and associated planning maps).
. Decision 35: Chapter 18 – Open
space – Stage 2 and 3 (and relevant
definitions)
Both the open space (decision
35) and rural (decision 34) decisions
contain commentary and
district plan policies and rules
which would enable (1) a new golf
course on the old quarry site; and
(2) a new quarry on the existing
golf course site.
That new zoning (or zone swap)
can only occur if the following
three conditions are met before
December 31, 2021, when Fulton
Hogan seeks and gains approval
for a reserve exchange under the
Reserve Act; Fulton Hogan obtains
resource consent to clear the
existing significant indigenous
vegetation on the golf course
WESTERN NEWS
site and, finally, Fulton Hogan
or Templeton Golf Club deliver
an executed contract to build a
new international standard golf
course and other facilities on the
quarry site. If those conditions
are met and the new zoning takes
effect, Fulton Hogan still requires
resource consent for the new
quarry. This is to ensure firstly, a
bond is entered into between Fulton
Hogan, the golf course and
city council to ensure completion
of the golf course. Secondly, to
approve a landscape plan for the
golf course and to ensure a bond
is entered into for completion of
the golf course.

Shops bursting with
festive gift ideas
The countdown to the big day is well underway, so making
up the Christmas gift list will now be a top priority… if you
haven’t already done so.
Finding those special gifts and stocking
fillers as well as the Christmas treats for
the table is so easy at our city’s malls and
shopping centres, where the shops are
bursting with festive merchandise.
Every woman likes to receive bodypampering
gifts, and there is a huge
selection of these priced to suit all budgets
at the many pharmacies and gift shops
around the city. Perfume is another
favourite and again there is a wide
selection to choose from, ranging from
exciting new releases to the well-known
fragrances that have stood the test of time.
Lingerie, jewellery, fashion accessories,
homewares and decor items – there’s no
end to the ideas for the women on the list.
The men are equally well catered for, from
the sophisticated metro-male boyfriends,
to the car-crazy brothers and the DIY
enthusiast and keen gardener husbands
and dads. Choose from clothing, books,
tools, personal grooming items and
gadgets to put a smile on their face on
Christmas morning.
Speaking of smiles, nothing gives families
more joy than seeing the excitement
of the children opening their presents.
Whether they are delivered by Santa or
snuck under the tree by mum and dad,
the cuddly toys, games, dolls and building
blocks, the candy canes, toy trucks and
pretty dresses currently filling the shops
will bring squeals of sheer happiness from
the smallest family members.
The tweens and teens usually have their
own ideas about what they want for
Christmas, so the gift cards offered by a
wide range of retailers are the perfect way
to please.

Creative wrapping
adds intrigue to gifts
Most of the malls offer a free gift-wrapping service, which
is a great help at this busy time, but for those who prefer
to wrap their own here are a few ideas to make gifts look
unique and exciting.
The first tip to make the job easier and
the wrapping look more professional is to
do the task on a flat surface – a table or a
hard floor.
Recycling has become an important
aspect of modern-day life, and that’s easy
to do with gift-wrapping. For example,
those brown paper bags you have put
aside are ideal, especially for odd-shaped
gifts. To give them a Christmassy look,
you could glue on those left-over pieces
of wrapping paper from last year that are
too small to use, and add a candy cane or
chocolate with the gift tag.
Another quirky idea is to wrap your gifts
in fabric. You could cut up a garment you
no longer wear, or look out those left over
pieces from curtains or clothing you have
made. Tie them up with fabric ribbon to
complete the look.
in Western News
Using newspaper or cardboard boxes as
wrapping is another recycling idea, and
you could add a festive look by tying
them with Christmas ribbon.
For long-shaped gifts, why not wrap them
to look like a Christmas cracker. Place a
tube of cardboard around the item, then
put it inside a sheet of wrapping paper,
secure it with tape then scrunch up the
ends like a cracker and tie them off with
coloured ribbon.
Kitchen foil is another wrapping option.
Being silver and shiny it already has a
festive look, which you could enhance
with bright-coloured ribbon.
Make a container, such as a jar, tin or
tray one part of the gift. Complete it with
chocolates, nuts or biscuits and wrap the
gift in clear cellophane tied with brightcoloured
ribbon.

Experts restore that
“winning smile”
MEETING PEOPLE for the first time,
interacting with others on social occasions,
going for a job interview - in all these
situations your smile is the most important
part of you.
Or perhaps, on a lighter note, you
might be scaring yourself with your ‘selfie’
because your smile is not as attractive as it
should be, due to missing or broken teeth.
Perhaps it’s time for a visit to Denture
South in Barrington, where the experts can
give you that winning smile back.
Clinical dental technician, Andrew
Johnson and associate Janice ling can
provide you with a highly personalised
experience. We have a lot of knowledge
and experience that can help guide you
through the process.
For people who have had dentures for a
while and are finding they frequently need
to buy denture adhesive to keep them in
place, Andrew advises having the dentures
relined so they will fit better. As he points
out, the money spent on denture adhesive
over 12 months would easily cover the cost
of having your dentures refitted.
Denture South has been providing a full
range of denture services for the residents
of Christchurch for over 13 years. These
services include first-time immediate
dentures, full replacement dentures, partial
plates and sports mouth-guards.
Many Denture South clients come
through word-of-mouth referral, an
indication of the level of satisfaction that’s
provided there. Coming into Christmas
we will be open and available for all
adjustments for our existing patients in the
final week, making for a great Christmas.

Social butterflies wanted
39 Applefield Court, Northwood
Auction: Thursday 15 December - unless sold prior
4 bedrooms | 2 bathrooms | 2 toilets | 2 living rooms | 1 office/study | 3 car-garage | 4 off-street parks | Listing # PI45539
Those who love to entertain will be instantly
drawn to our feature listing, a substantial
family home located within the popular gated
area of Styx Mill Country Club.
Built just over a decade ago, this very
appealing home boasts four double bedrooms
(master with walk-in robe) and two superblyappointed
bathrooms, one of which includes
a spa bath.
Versatile, interconnecting living areas
provide the scope to host both intimate
gatherings and large get-togethers, while
the gourmet kitchen ensures the ability
to cater to any and every occasion. Other
highlights include a study, a separate laundry,
and an array of intelligent heating solutions
(including a gas fire, a heatpump, and
undertile heating).
Multiple sets of bi-folding doors provide
seamless access to the expansive section,
where sun-soaked patios offer plenty of space
for entertaining in the private and tranquil
fully-fenced grounds.
Triple, internal access garaging (with
double door access) and ample off-street
parking complete the appeal, while the
proximity to the Northwood Supa Centre
means every amenity you could ever need is
right on your doorstep.
The lifestyle on offer here is compelling, to
say the least, with numerous walkways and
reserves all within easy reach. In addition,
the sale includes membership to the Styx Mill
Country Club, where you’ll find everything
from an indoor pool, spa and sauna to
outdoor tennis courts and a gym!
Quality homes in this ever-popular
part of the city are always in demand, and
interested parties are advised to act quickly.
Open homes, Saturday and Sunday 3.30pm-
4.15pm. Call today for more information or
for a private viewing appointment - contact
