Buck fed up with facility delays 

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding 

VICKI BUCK is fed up with how 

long it has taken city council 

staff to consult the public on 

where the new sports and 

community facility will be sited 

in Hornby. 

A fired-up Ms Buck sparked 

a heated debate at last week’s 

Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton 

Community Board meeting over 

the timing of an extraordinary 

board meeting on January 31 to 

discuss where the facility will be 

built. 

Ms Buck, who is also a city 

councillor, wanted the meeting 

held before the city council’s 

meeting on January 26, so the 

Vicki Buck 

board could go to the council 

with its recommended locations. 

But her call received no 

backing from the six other 

community board members at 

the meeting, Mike Mora, Helen 

Broughton, Ross McFarlane, 

Debbie Mora and Catherine Chu 

who were all for the plan to stick 

with a January 31 meeting. 

Ms Buck voted against that 

and asked for it to be recorded in 

the minutes. 

Board members Jimmy Chen 

and Anne Galloway left the 

meeting before the vote was 

taken. Natalie Bryden was absent 

from the meeting. 

It means options for the location 

will now not be heard by the 

city council until February. 

During the debate board chair- 

Debbie Mora 

man Mr Mora said he could not 

see how the delay would make 

any difference to the outcome. 

Ms Buck responded: “People 

have been waiting for three 

years, they want to see something 

happening. I think it 

makes a huge difference.” 

Ms Mora said it was important 

city council staff had time to 

prepare properly so the options 

are not prepared in a rushed 

fashion. 

But Ms Buck responded that 

was the reason the location options 

were delayed from going to 

the city council on December 15. 

Deputy chairwoman Ms 

Broughton agreed the extraordinary 

meeting should be held on 

January 31. 

“I actually want to be clear 

. . . if I am going to vote Denton 

Park I need to know it is the only 

option possible,” Ms Broughton 

said. 

But Ms Buck said: “It would 

seem to me this is the top priority 

in the area and I cannot see 

why we are stuffing round.”

JUST GET on with it and build 

a great sports and community 

facility in Hornby! 

The fast growing suburb desperately 

needs it. 

Good on Vicki Buck firing up 

at the recent community Hornby- 

Halswell-Riccarton Community 

Board meeting, calling for action 

now. 

But she got no support in her bid 

to bring a meeting of the board 

forward to discuss locations, so 

again there will be another delay. 

Hornby could be a very strong 

sports area. It has a very fast growing 

– and young population. 

Rugby league has been strong 

for many, many decades; but other 

sports have lagged behind. 

But with a great sports facility 

that could be used by a number of 

sports there’s no reason why other 

codes can’t make strides. 

Get the thing built!

Kart club prefers McLeans Island 


KARTING WANTS to set up 

close to one of Christchurch’s 

most idyllic wildlife parks. 

The Christchurch Kart Club 

plans to apply for resource 

consent to move to a site on 

McLeans Island near Peacock 

Springs which is operated by the 

Isaac Wildlife Trust. 

It is expected the application 

will be submitted before the end 

of February. 

Peacock Springs is a former 

quarry pit restored as a wildlife 

habitat established by Sir Neil 

and Lady Diana Isaac. 

A city council spokeswoman 

said location options have 

been looked at since 1995 and 

McLeans Island was the most 

suitable option. 

The club was first established 

at Carrs Rd in the 1960s and has 

a lease until 2054. 

It was required to move to

and Wildlife Trust

neighbour if the

Club moves to 

McLeans Island. 

make way for the full residential 

development of the Awatea 

Block south of Wigram. 

It was reported in July last 

year about 670 houses would 

not be able to be built if the club 

was not moved and land buffers 

would have to be put in place to 

reduce the noise impact on the 

new houses. 

At that time The Isaac Conservation 

and Wildlife Trust 

expressed concerns at the 

proposed relocation of the kart 

club to the area due to the noise 

generated by the club. 

But trust’s operations manager 

Bruce Rule told Western News 

last week they would not comment 

at this stage on whether it 

would make an objection. 

Orana Wildlife Park’s marketing 

manager Nathan Hawke 

said it does not have enough 

information yet to comment on 

whether it would object. 

He said noise is only an issue 

for animals if it is a direct noise 

such as a drone flying overhead, 

rather than a constant noise the 

kart club would make. 

National Equestrian Centre 

Christchurch’s centre manager 

Steven Irwin said they would 

most likely object if the kart club

Kart Club could move to

was placed next door, but not if 

it was down the other end of the 

island because the trees would 

block the noise. 

He said horses are a “visual 

animal” and are more sensitive 

to movement. 

“We have got shooting clubs 

and that sort of thing around 

us and they never seem to get 

bothered,” he said. 

Both Orana Park and the 

equestrian centre are located 

near Christchurch Pistol Club, 

Christchurch International Airport 

and K.B. Contracting and 

Quarries on Miners Rd. 

Depending on whether the resource 

consent is approved, the 

city council will pay $3.5 million 

for the club’s move. 

The Christchurch Kart Club’s 

president Kent Ramsay said he 

did not wish to comment at this 

stage.

Caring for TurTles 

Foot injury needing veterinary attention. 

Turtle Facts: 

Turtles are not your average pets. They 

are fascinating creatures that aren’t 

particularly complicated to care for as 

long as you invest a little time and have 

the right equipment, you can enjoy them 

for a possible 25 to 40 years! 

Pet turtles in NZ are usually red-eared 

sliders or snake necks. Turtles are cold 

blooded so regulate their temperature 

from their environment, moving between 

sunning area and the layers of warm and 

cool water. 

Turtles have hard shells made up of 

around 60 bones covered by plates called 

scutes. Scutes are shed once or twice 

a year and can be easily scratched by 

minor trauma or softened by prolonged 

immersion in warm water. When they 

bask in the sun, their scutes dry and firm 

back up. 

The shell is part of its skeleton which is 

attached to the spine and the rib cage 

so they can’t crawl out of it. They can feel 

pressure and pain through their shells, 

just as you can feel pressure through your 

fingernails. 

Enviroment 

Turtles can grow to be 13-28cm in 

length so they will need a relatively large 

enclosure. An outdoor enclosure is the 

best place for your turtles – one with 

water to swim, rocks to sunbathe on and 

some shelter under which to keep cool. 

If you are going to keep your turtle in an 

aquarium, it is very important to keep 

it clean. Turtles are messy eaters so the 

water needs to be changed regularly & 

good filter is essential. 

Plenty of natural light is good, but they 

also need special UV bulbs and a 

heat lamp. A full spectrum UVA/ 

UVB reptile light is necessary for 

the production of calcium and 

maintenance of the hardness of 

their shells. The ideal temperature 

in an aquarium should be carefully 

monitored and in the correct range. 

Gravel is not necessary, and very 

small gravel can be ingested by your 

turtle and this can cause blockage 

problems. Use stones that are large 

enough not to be swallowed or river 

rocks. 

Diet 

A healthy, balanced diet for turtles consists 

of a wide variety of foods, from snails to 

alfalfa. Red-eared turtles are omnivores, 

eating mostly meat when young and 

becoming vegetarian as they age and 

need less protein. Juveniles turtles (up to 

1yr old) should be fed twice a day and 

adults every second day. They can only 

feed in water. 

Turtles like to eat worms, snails, insects, 

fish and boiled chicken. The plants they 

prefer include most varieties found in 

tropical fish tanks, plus lettuce, cabbage, 

alfalfa, and berries. Turtle food bought 

from a pet shop contains essential 

vitamins and minerals including calcium, 

which is needed for the development of 

the shell. A poor diet results in a soft shell 

and a lethargic pet. 

Do not feed - Red meat or processed 

meat. Cat or dog food, avocado, spinach, 

silverbeet, peas, corn, cauliflower, 

cabbage, broccoli, fruits, raw chicken, 

rhubarb, beetroot, tomato, celery 

Turtle Problems 

If your Turtle has the correct diet and 

environment it is unlikely to get ill or have 

problems but there are a few things to 

look out for. 

These include: Soft shell syndrome 

(Metabolic Bone Disease): a result of poor 

diet and/or insufficient lighting. Fungal 

infections: a cotton-like layer on the shell, 

eyes or mouth. Respiratory infections: 

Wheezing, lethargy, a runny nose and loss 

of appetite, all due to an environment that 

is too cold. 

If you see any of these symptoms in your 

pet, make sure you take them to us for 

assessment and treatment. 

I really enjoy looking after the turtles that 

come through our vet clinic. They are 

beautiful, amazing and resilient creatures. 

There is never a dull moment at work and 

you never know what creatures we will 

treat next!

More to Xmas than gifts 

This week’s 

opinion 

piece was 

written by 

retiring City 

Missioner 

Michael Gorman 

about not losing sight 

of what Christmas 

really means 

For most of us Christmas 

is a time of great 

happiness. 

Children are excited 

as they receive gifts and 

we use the time to get together 

as families and with 

friends to celebrate. 

For some people, this 

time of year also has great 

religious significance as we 

recall the birth of Jesus. 

Whatever our belief, it is 

a time to get together with 

those we love and enjoy 

ourselves. 

Not everyone has good 

reason to celebrate. 

For some people, Christmas 

reminds them of happier 

days long gone. 

Days when, for example, 

they were not fighting addiction, 

had not suffered 

loss and separation and 

were not unemployed and 

living in poverty. 

Christmas can be a time 

of great loneliness if there 

has been death or family 

separation. 

Many old people are 

forgotten in the busy 

Christmas rush. 

Christmas can also be a 

time of over spending. 

We all want to give as 

much as we can to our 

children and to those we 

love. 

We are often seduced by 

advertising and easy credit 

into buying goods that we 

cannot afford and we are 

then in debt for much of 

the next year. 

While not wanting to 

be the Grinch who stole 

Christmas, maybe we 

should cut back our spending 

to what we can afford. 

Homemade gifts or offers 

to help out during the 

year are just as acceptable 

as expensive presents and 

still tell people we love 

them. 

Remembering the lonely 

and being aware of the 

need to include them in 

our celebrations and giving 

people our time may 

be the very best gift. And, 

if it is safe to do so, then 

Christmas may be the time 

for family reconciliation. 

Even if Christmas has no 

religious meaning for us 

we can still give love – the 

greatest gift of all.

More speed limit decreases 


David 

Hawke 

SIX MORE roads in Halswell 

are likely to have their speed 

limits reduced. 

The speed limit on parts of 

Halswell Junction Rd, Quaifes 

Rd, Marshs Rd, Sparks Rd and 

Sutherlands Rd will be lowered 

after concerns from 

residents. 

The changes were 

approved by the 

Halswell-Hornby- 

Riccarton Community 

Board last 

week and will be 

forwarded on to the 

city council for the final rubber 

stamp next year. 

Halswell Junction Rd will 

be reduced from 60km/h to 

50km/h, Quaifes Rd from 

80km/h to 50km/h and 100 

metres of Quaifes Rd south-east 

of Whincops Rd from 80km/h 

to 70km/h. 

Marshs Rd will be reduced 

from 80km/h to 70km/h, Sparks 

Rd from 80km/h to 60km/h and 

Sutherlands Rd from 80km/h to 

60km/h. 

It comes after 12 roads were 

approved by city council to have 

their speed limits lowered in 

September and it decided to look 

at additional roads. 

CHANGES: Halswell Junction Rd beyond Denali St is likely to 

be lowered from 60km/h to 50km/h. 

But as far as the Halswell 

Residents’ Association was 

concerned, the battle to reduce 

speed to make the area a safer 

place is not over yet. 

At a deputation last Tuesday 

to the community board, association 

secretary David Hawke 

said while it “whole-heartedly” 

supported the changes, it was 

disappointed it didn’t go as far 

as expected. 

The association wanted to 

see several other roads, including 

Nicholls Rd, lowered from 

50km/h to 30 km/h and a 

section of Halswell Junction 

Rd lowered from 60km/h to 

50km/h. 

But when asked by Western 

News if the association was 

unhappy with how the speed 

limits were handled, Mr Hawke 

disagreed and said the community 

board had been “really 

supportive.” 

He said more progress had 

been made on lowering the 

speed limits in the last six to 

eight months than in the last six 

to eight years. 

“We will obviously be back to 

talk more about speed limits in 

the future but that is just the nature 

of things,” Mr Hawke said. 

The association had concerns 

over Nicholls Rd due to the 

number of over 60-year-olds 

living near the road and the 

necessity for them to cross to get 

to the commercial area. 

It was also concerned a section 

of Halswell Junction Rd beyond 

Denali St, near the Christchurch 

Southern Motorway, had not 

been lowered. 

In October, the city council 

consulted on proposed speed 

limit changes in Halswell with 

between 77 to 91 per cent showing 

support for the six proposed 

locations.

She said the community board

Mr Mora (right)

yet. 

City council staff gave the

Stream clean-up 

SIXTY-FIVE TONNES of 

accumulated silt has been blasted 

out of an Ilam stream in an effort 

to entice trout back to breed and 

improve the habitat for other 

aquatic life. 

Recently, North Canterbury 

Fish & Game staff spent two weeks 

co-ordinating the removal of sediment 

from the Wairarapa Stream, 

one of the Avon River’s most 

important tributaries. 

The operation removed silt 

which had accumulated over the 

years from stormwater drains 

flowing into the stream, with 

about 540 sq m of stream bed near 

the Jellie Park Recreation and 

Sports Centre cleaned. 

It equated to 120kg of silt per sq 

m cleaned. Fish & Game officer 

Emily Arthur-Moore said the goal 

was to make the stream suitable 

for trout to spawn in and habitable 

for other aquatic life. 

“Silt layers on top of the stream 

gravels had smothered the invertebrates 

that live in the stream bed 

and, by removing the sediment, 

aquatic life has the chance to prosper 

again,” she said. 

“Various techniques were used 

during the two weeks, including 

water jet blasters, diggers and a 

specialised piece of equipment 

called a sand wand,” Ms Arthur- 

Moore said.

Support was given to the project 

by the city council, Environment 

Canterbury and Nelson-based 

dredging and water treatment 

consultants, Southwater, which 

also provided various pumps and 

hoses. 

The stream bed was agitated using 

either the water jet blasters or 

the sand wand and the disturbed 

silt was captured and then removed 

to a de-watering site. 

After a process to remove the 

silt, the clean water was returned 

to the stream and the sediment 

remaining was taken to a landfill 

for disposal

Our People 

WESTERN NEWS 

Tasman Gillies 

Environmentalist follows in the 

Tasman Gillies, 27 of Ngāi Tahu (Ngāti Wheke), is a third 

generation tāngata tiaki and guardian of Lyttelton Harbour. 

Annabelle Dick talked to him about his work and how he 

almost followed a completely different career path 

You work for Ngāi Tahu, can 

you tell me about what you do? 

I’m an environmental advisor 

– mahinga kai monitoring and 

enhancement for Ngāi Tahu. 

You’re also tāngata tiaki – 

what does that mean and what 

do you do in that role? 

Tāngata tiaki are guardians 

responsible for managing fisheries 

resources. In regards to 

my role as tāngata tiaki, it’s an 

ongoing thing. It’s the legislative 

side so it’s a ministerial appointment. 

Effectively we manage 

the mātaitai (an identified 

traditional fishing ground with 

special status) and issue customary 

fishing permits for the ngāti 

wheke area. In the harbour, ngāti 

wheke is a representative on the 

Whakaraupo/Lyttelton Catchment 

Management Plan so I’m 

the science advisor for that. 

You’re a third generation 

tāngata tiaki, can you tell me 

about your family and their 

involvement? 

My pōua was involved in 

the establishment of the first 

mataitai reserve at Rapaki. The 

whole purpose is a recognition 

of rangatiratanga and the 

relationship with the traditional 

fishing grounds and customary 

fishing management within the 

mataitai. They were made the 

first ever tāngata tiaki. 

Did having the family connection 

prompt you to follow it 

as a career? 

It definitely influenced it, but I 

didn’t go to university intending 

to study it or come out involved 

in this area. My Dad’s a GP so 

I went down to study medicine 

and in the first year I knew it 

wasn’t for me. I’m not sure if I 

would’ve got into my second 

year, but regardless, I didn’t want 

to do it. Funnily enough, I told 

my dad and he laughed and said 

“good, because I didn’t think 

you wanted to do it, but I didn’t 

want to influence your decision.” 

I laugh at that because I could’ve 

saved myself a year but, at the 

same time, I had to realise it. 

I changed course and ended 

up gravitating towards marine 

LEGACY: Tasman Gillies is continuing his family legacy as a 

third generation tangata tiaki.

science and work associated with 

mahinga kai. 

Did you learn a lot about your 

family in the process? 

Yes. You start to run into 

people that used to know my 

pōua and talk to them. The 

people I work with now at Ngāi 

Tahu worked with him when 

he was alive and, being an iwi, 

some of them are related to him 

as well so you hear stories. You 

definitely learn the technical 

things like dates and specific 

legislative parts and what 

mātaitai is and taiapure. 

Considering the involvement 

your pōua had, do you feel any 

pressure to live up to his name? 

Not at all – if anything it’s 

more understanding about what 

he wanted. The process that him 

and Henry Couch were involved 

with, and what they did to get 

the mātaitai in place, it was a 

lengthy process. For me, it’s 

about understanding what he 

wanted to achieve because Ngāi 

Tahu always uses the saying 

“Mō tātou, ā, mō kā uri, ā muri 

ake ne,” which means “for us 

and our children after us.” It’s a 

pretty straightforward concept. 

Knowing my pōua was involved 

in that whole process, and being 

third generation tāngata tiaki, it’s 

quite a literal thing for me. In his 

mind, he wanted to sustain the 

fisheries and have management 

over it so our generation could 

too. It comes back to the concept 

of kaitiakitanga, or kaitiaki, 

which means guardianship 

or stewardship over the 

environment. Ngāti Wheke 

is my hapu, so that’s Rāpaki. 

Our area is Lyttelton Harbour 

or Whakaraupo and because 

I whakapapa back to there, 

kaitiaki or guardianship is also 

a responsibility – so our world 

view is we have a responsibility 

to take care of it as well.

footsteps of his ancestors 

HOME: Tasman Gillies is at home in the harbour. 

Being tāngata tiaki is not so 

much about continuing his 

legacy – it’s more what I should 

be doing anyway. The kaitiaki 

concept isn’t exclusive to Maori, 

I think people should have a responsibility 

towards the environment 

and take care of it because 

we’re being trusted to take care 

of it while we’re here for future 

generations. 

Did you grow up at Rāpaki? 

We moved to Rāpaki when I 

was nine. I was born in Australia 

and lived in a little town called 

Alstonville near Byron Bay. Both 

of my parents are Kiwi and I 

have two older sisters. We kind 

of grew up in the bush – we 

lived in a big valley and the next 

neighbour was a kilometre away 

so we had all the room to play 

around but we had to be careful 

because it was Aussie. We knew 

we were Maori but, in Australia, 

we were absent from the culture 

in a sense. When I moved here, it 

was a big learning curve. I think 

that was why our parents wanted 

us to move back to see those 

things. 

What You does can your also family pin it do? 

My mum and dad still live 

in Rāpaki – he’s a doctor. My 

sister works You can also for pin the it Ministry of 

Education, but she was previously 

a Maori teacher at Lincoln 

High School. My other sister is a 

dentist in Masterton. 

What was it like moving to 

Rāpaki? 

It was a shock initially. You 

can know you’re Maori but then 

someone goes “oh you’re Maori, 

do you want to be in the Kapa 

Haka group?” I didn’t even know 

what that was. People look at 

you funny because they know 

14km 

14km 

things about your culture that 

you don’t. But in saying that, my 

sister became a Maori teacher. 

It’s been a massive learning 

curve but also a really good one. 

It’s more than the acknowledgement 

I’m Maori now. Now I’m 

part of it. 

Where did you go to school? 

I went to Lyttelton West then 

Cashmere High School. 

OFFICIAL ENTRY NUMBER: 

I heard you were head boy, 

6km 

6km 

too? You kept that one quiet. 

Yeah I was . . . that was a laugh. 

Do you have any hidden 

talents? 

I won the dance competition 

at the work Christmas function 

out of like 300 people. I don’t 

know what kind of dancing I 

was doing OFFICIAL and ENTRY when NUMBER: and where I 

picked it up . . . I just free-styled. 

I think I picked it up from those 

Step Up films from years ago. I 

was dressed as The Wiggles with 

a few of the guys from work. 

What do you do for fun? 

I love surfing and skiing and I 

used to do waka ama, too, which 

is outrigger canoeing. 

Have you travelled overseas? 

In 2014, after I had submitted 

my masters thesis, I went to 

Canada. I lived in Whistler for a 

year working at the bar and on 

the mountain and just skied and 

had fun. I had a good time and, 

by the end of the year, I came 

back wanting to make use of my 

degree and be more involved in 

something besides living paycheck 

to paycheck. 

Were there any bear encounters? 

Yeah, walking through the 

village early morning and I was 

still quite tired and went through 

the forest section in the valley. 

I looked up and there’s a beer 

standing just in front of me. He 

didn’t really care so I just turned 

around cause I didn’t want to 

deal with it. You get them everywhere. 

They’re quite clever so a 

lot of the door handles are knobs 

because they know how to open 

the levers. Stuff like that I wasn’t 

used to. The raccoons were 

hilarious but they’re the weirdest 

creatures that waddle around.

SCHOOLS 

CHARITY: Halswell School students Michael Wilkinson and 

Hamish Williams have been inspired by a school project to 

fundraise and donate six soccer balls to Kaikoura schools. 

Soccer balls make way to 

Kaikoura thanks to fundraiser 

WHEN TWO Halswell School 

pupils chose to do a school 

project on their favourite pastime 

soccer, they found the benefits 

reached further than promoting 

a healthy lifestyle. 

Year 8 pupils Michael Wilkinson 

and Hamish Williams were 

inspired to fundraise and donate 

six soccer balls to Kaikoura 

schools. 

“Soccer has the power to do 

amazing things, even though it 

is just a simple game. Some kids 

don’t have an amazing life. Soccer 

lightens their mood, makes 

them feel better,” Michael said. 

“It takes their mind off things; 

soccer can make the bond with 

your mates stronger,” Hamish 

said. 

Red Cross recovery manager 

Michael Donoghue said people 

and communities that are wellconnected 

socially recover faster 

from disasters. 

During their research the 

pupils were surprised to discover 

how generous some football 

clubs are, sparking an idea to 

undertake their own fundraising 

activity. 

The pupils were prompted after 

seeing an English football club 

donating equipment to children 

in Africa and the Red Cross helping 

out people in Kaikoura. 

This prompted the pupils to 

contact the organisation and donate 

the soccer balls to children 

in need of a pick-me-up. 

The Red Cross delivered the 

soccer balls to Kaikoura last 

week. 

CHRISTMAS TIME: South Hornby School’s “storytellers” singing Christmas songs to make the 

terminal more festive. 

Xmas tunes for travellers 

FOUR PRIMARY schools from 

across the western area of the 

city brought Christmas cheer to 

the Christchurch International 

Airport. 

South Hornby School, St Teresa’s 

School, Templeton School 

and Avonhead School were 

four of 12 schools from across 

Canterbury selected by the 

airport to perform a wide variety 

of “Christmas-themed” songs, 

dances and theatre. 

A Christchurch International 

Airport spokeswoman said 

the performances were “pretty 

Christmasy” this year and wellattended 

by friends, families and 

visitors.

SCHOOLS 

Funding for Rio ‘baby’ 

WARM WELCOME: A fence in Halswell was decorated by 

Halswell School pupils last weekend. 

Election hoardings 

put to good use 

OLD CAMPAIGN boards from 

the local elections have been 

put to good use, giving people 

a warm welcome as they drive 

into Halswell. 

A plain site at the corner of 

Halswell Rd and Sparks Rd had 

a makeover last weekend with 

pupils from Halswell School 

decorating a fence. 

The campaign boards were 

donated by Halswell-Hornby- 

Riccarton Community Board 

chairman Mike Mora, community 

board member Debbie 

Mora and councillor Jimmy 

Chen. 

The Halswell Residents’ Association 

and year 8 student 

Amelia Ledingham also helped 

to organise the project to beautify 

the section. 

Ms Mora said it was great the 

project was given to a student 

and she grabbed the opportunity. 

“She did an incredible job 

to collate all these art students 

together to do this product,” she 

said. 

Ms Mora said the community 

will look at doing more projects 

like this around Halswell. 

“It is just really admirable 

to look at it when you are 

sitting at the traffic lights,” she 

said. 

Resene Paints pitched in 

donating paint and lollies for the 

project. 

HIGH PERFORMANCE Sport 

New Zealand has committed to a 

two-year investment in Halswell 

gymnast Courtney McGregor. 

The 18-year-old was the baby 

of the Olympic team in Rio, 

where she finished 13th in her 

specialty apparatus of vault. 

“As far as we are aware, Courtney 

is the first artistic gymnast 

to be funded by HPSNZ. This 

is a great achievement for both 

Courtney and for the sport of 

gymnastics in New Zealand,” 

said GymSports NZ chief executive 

Tony Compier. 

HPSNZ is hoping to see Mc- 

Gregor grow on her performance 

at Rio, with an eye toward the 

2020 Olympics in Tokyo. 

McGregor is now a student 

athlete in the United States at 

Boise State University and is on 

a four-year scholarship under 

head coaches Tina Bird and Neil 

Resnick. The two led the college 

team to a record 15-meet unbeaten 

regular season last year. 

“I’m learning so much here 

at Boise and to know that my 

hard work and goals are being 

recognised and supported from 

home is fantastic. It also helps to 

justify all the time and money 

that my parents have invested 

in my gymnastics over the years 

to get me here. I’m stoked,” said 

McGregor. 

She is at her family home in 

Halswell for Christmas and will 

return to Boise in the new year.

Hornby Panthers duo up for awards 

• By Gordon Findlater 

TWO HORNBY Panthers have 

been made finalists for major 

awards at next month’s New 

Zealand Rugby League awards. 

Jordan Riki is a finalist for the 

under-16 domestic player of the 

year, while Tevin Arona is up for 

the domestic player of the year. 

Arona, 21, has been a star 

player for both the Panthers and 

Canterbury Bulls since returning 

to Christchurch two years ago 

after a stint in Australia with the 

Canberra Raiders. 

The scrum-half helped lead the 

Panthers to a grand-final appearance 

and was also named in the 

New Zealand Residents team. 

“Getting to play for my 

country was one of my proudest 

moments. Going into camp with 

the residents team was a great 

experience,” said Arona. 

His efforts saw him picked up 

by the Warriors recently. Arona 

is currently in Auckland training 

with the NRL team’s New South 

Wales Cup side. He will return to 

Christchurch for Christmas before 

returning to Auckland with 

the goal of making the squad for 

the 2017 season. 

Riki, 16, was the standout 

player for the South Island Scorpions 

at the national under-17 

tournament in October. He was 

named tournament MVP after 

helping the team to a second 

place finish. 

SPORTS 

The second rower was also the 

MVP at this year’s under-16 New 

Zealand Rugby League performance 

camp in Rotorua. 

“I went there last year as a 

15-year-old and at the end said, 

‘I would love to get one of the 

awards one day.’ That was my 

goal going into it this year and 

everything panned out,” said 

Riki. 

Recognition of his talent hasn’t 

only come from within New 

Zealand. Riki was noticed by 

an agent two years ago and was 

soon picked up by the Brisbane 

Broncos. He has recently signed 

a new three-year deal with the 

NRL club and will make the 

move to Brisbane following his 

final year at Christchurch Boys’ 

High School. 

Riki has also proven handy 

in the 15-man game. His first 

experience with the oval ball 

was in union with Burnside as a 

four-year-old, before his parent 

moved him to league because of 

his build. 

“A lot of parents were complaining 

because I was a bit too big and 

rough. My mum actually had to 

take down my birth certificate to 

prove how old I was,” said Riki. 

YOUNG STAR: Jordan Riki (above) scored two tries during the under-16 New Zealand Rugby 

League performance camp in Rotorua. While Tevin Arona’s performances on the domestic 

front have seen him pick up a pre-season contract with the Warriors. 

He then joined the Riccarton 

Knights before moving to the 

Panthers. 

Riki was part of a combined 

Panthers and Halswell Hornets 

team that won this year’s under-18 

Canterbury club grandfinal, 

defeating the Papanui 

Tigers 50-6. 

Riki has also returned to union 

since his first stint as a youngster. 

This year he played a handful 

of games at No 8 for the 

Christchurch BHS first XV 

before deciding to concentrate 

on league. However, he’s planning 

on giving the defending 

UC Championship team another 

crack during his final year of 

school in 2017.

With the family having left home this magnificent home is now simply too big for the vendor. 

Quintessentially Cashmere this superb home with sweeping views and all day sun will 

please the most discerning buyer. A superbly designed extension by Sheppard and Rout has 

resulted in a six bedroom, four bathroom, three living room home retaining the style and 

charm of its history whilst giving the benefit of modern day living. 

Step into the large elegant entranceway and on into the large family kitchen and dining 

room area featuring beautiful timber floors and then through to the family room. A large 

formal wood panelled lounge is a wonderful space to perhaps achieve a quiet area from the 

bustle of family life. The adjoining conservatory can also double as room for teenagers, being 

big enough to take a table tennis table. A media room complete with speakers, projector and 

screen is a great place to entertain family and friends, perhaps after a bbq and swim in the 

heated inground pool. 

But perhaps the real surprise lies at the top of the house. Here is a purpose-built workspace, 

generous in size and ideal for those who wish to work from home. There is room for three 

people to comfortably work plus storage space for samples or stock. Attention to detail 

continues even into laundry and a refrigerated cool room. The large private grounds are a joy 

for the gardener with expansive lawns and well established trees and shrubs. You can sit on 

the deck and admire your garden in these long summer days to come. There is so much to see 

in the house - call now to view your new home.

SHOW


Food business focuses on 

healthy choices 

Their experiences on New Zealand 

reality TV show MKR was the catalyst for 

two Christchurch women, Ricki and Jessie, 

to start their own food business – with the 

focus firmly on healthy eating. 

The pair spent many hours spent tasting, 

testing and developing a series of healthy, 

nutritionally balanced salads before 

launching Healthkicks in April 2015. 

“We wanted to provide healthy 

options for everyday people,” says Ricki. 

“Everyone’s busy these days and as a result 

they sometimes find it quicker and easier 

to get fast foods, which are often unhealthy. 

We wanted to change that culture and offer 

healthier options.” 

Their selection of fresh, tasty salads 

can be purchased in takeaway containers, 

which hold a generous portion of up to 

500 grams for $10. The salads can also be 

vacuum-packed, so they will last longer in 

the fridge. Those without lettuce can be 

served hot or cold. 

They are also available as platters to 

serve at parties and barbeques, and with 

Christmas Day and other festive occasions 

coming up, these would be ideal, Ricki says. 

They are delivered in vacuum packs for 

easy storage. And as a healthy sweet treat 

for ‘afters’, Healthkicks has the delicious 

snickers slice. 

Items are ordered through the website, 

healthkicks.nz, with free delivery available 

throughout the Christchurch area – 

minimum purchase $30. Orders placed by 

6pm will be delivered the following day, 

Monday to Friday. 

“We are finding that customers are 

ordering a week’s worth of salads on a 

Monday so they are set up for the week,” 

says Ricki. “Our food speaks for itself. As 

well as vegetables and proteins it contains 

healthy carbs, so it keeps you full.” 

Healthkicks also has a shop in 

Avonhead, at 104 Staveley Street, phone 

342 9541, where customers can purchase 

items or pick up their orders. Business 

hours are Monday 9am-1.30pm, Tuesday 

to Friday, 6.30am-1.30pm.

Christmas – a time for 

celebration & worship 

Christmas Day is a holy 

day for Christians who 

mark the 25 December as 

the birth of Christ. They 

come together in prayer 

and song, heralding the 

coming of Jesus, the son of 

God. 

Leading up to Christmas 

day is the period of 

advent. It begins on the 

Sunday closest to the 30 

November, with the advent 

calendar counting down 

the days to Christmas 

while the advent wreath 

contains five candles 

representing the Sundays 

before the special day and 

one for Christmas Day. 

Joseph, a carpenter and 

Mary had been travelling 

90 miles from Nazareth to 

Bethlehem; as Joseph was 

required to participate in a 

Census where the Roman 

rulers counted the number 

of Jewish people for tax 

purposes. 

Heavily pregnant Mary 

had been riding on a 

donkey. She gave birth in 

a cave stable where they 

slept with the animals due 

to there being no room at 

the inn. The nativity scene 

shows Jesus lying in a 

manger in the stable; often 

re-enacted by children as 

part of church services 

leading up to Christmas 

Day with some churches 

even having live animals as 

part of this service. 

A bright Star signalled 

the coming of Christ and 

guided wise men who took 

gifts of gold, frankincense 

and myrrh to the new born 

while shepherds were led 

there by an angel. 

Christmas Eve and 

Christmas Day services 

are a time for rejoicing the 

birth of Christ when carols 

are sung and there is much 

happiness. 

We wish everyone a very merry Christmas and happy hoildays
