JUNIOR EEL: Joseph Taipari has made the NRL club’s junior team after relocating to Sydney late<br />
last year.<br />
Hornets teen scores Eels spot<br />
• By Gordon Findlater<br />
PROMISING Halswell Hornets<br />
scrum-half Joseph Taipari has<br />
got his big Sydney rugby league<br />
break.<br />
The 17-year-old has been<br />
named in the Parramatta Eels<br />
junior squad for the <strong>2017</strong> season.<br />
Taipari left for Sydney last year<br />
to join the Eels set up on a permanent<br />
basis and push his case<br />
for selection in the club’s junior<br />
squad for this year – and the<br />
tactic appears to have paid off.<br />
He will represent the Eels in<br />
the S.G. Ball Cup, played between<br />
teams made up of players aged<br />
under 18 from 19 NRL and NSW<br />
Cup junior teams.<br />
He has previously represented<br />
the South Island Scorpions at<br />
under-15 and under-17 level.<br />

A WELL-KNOWN Hornby<br />
sports identity says the longer<br />
the $34 million mega facility is<br />
delayed the better.<br />
John Catchpole (below) said<br />
sports clubs that use Denton<br />
Park – one of the options for the<br />
new Hornby Library, service<br />
centre and south-west<br />
pool – would be relieved<br />
a decision on a<br />
site may not be made<br />
until the end of the<br />
year.<br />
“We just don’t want<br />
to lose Denton Park<br />
because I think Denton<br />
Park is about the only<br />
green area around that built up<br />
area,” the former president of<br />
Hornby Rugby Football Club<br />
said.<br />
“If we were to ever lose something<br />
like this, it would be a<br />
massive disappointment.”<br />
The Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton<br />
Community Board recommended<br />
last week that they<br />
would consult the community<br />
on three possible sites for the<br />
mega facility – Denton Park,<br />
Warren Park and Kyle Park.<br />
Other sites could emerge as a<br />
result of the public consultation.<br />
The recommendation will<br />
go before the city council on<br />
Thursday for approval.<br />
The location and<br />
concept designs for<br />
the facility, which will<br />
house a library and<br />
service centre, are not<br />
likely to be known until<br />
the end of the year, the<br />
board was told.<br />
The project is<br />
not expected to be<br />
completed now until mid-2019<br />
or later. It has previously been<br />
delayed because of council<br />
budget issues.<br />

IT LOOKS like there’s a lot of<br />
water to go under the bridge<br />
yet before important decisions<br />
are made on the Hornby mega<br />
facility.<br />
The key one of course: Where<br />
will it go?<br />
There are many divisions in the<br />
community over where it should<br />
be placed, and this I suspect is<br />
working into the city council’s<br />
hands.<br />
Because the longer it is delayed<br />
through mucking around over<br />
a site, the more time the city<br />
council has to find the money to<br />
build the $34 million project.<br />
We report today on page 1 it<br />
will be the end of the year before<br />
a location and concept plans<br />
are determined, and it won’t be<br />
until late 2019 at least until it’s<br />
completed.<br />
I bet it will be much longer<br />
than that. – Barry Clarke<br />

Still no plans for old library<br />
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />
THE OLD Halswell Library is<br />
wasting away and no sign has<br />
been given on what will come<br />
of it.<br />
Groups interested in using the<br />
library are fed up with the lack<br />
of communication from the city<br />
council over the library’s future.<br />
The library has now been out<br />
of use for more than a year after<br />
the new Te Hapua: Halswell<br />
Centre opened in November,<br />
2015.<br />
Halswell Community Project<br />
chairwoman<br />
Chrys Horn (right)<br />
said several local<br />
groups have been<br />
interested in using<br />
the facility for a<br />
long time but there<br />
has not been “a lot<br />
of communication”<br />
from city council staff.<br />
More than a year ago groups<br />
including the Halswell Residents’<br />
Association came up with a<br />
varied list for what the library<br />
could become.<br />
This included a youth facility,<br />
museum, police office and<br />
funeral chapel.<br />
“We said lots of things and<br />
we would be happy to put in a<br />
proposal if we thought it would<br />
POPULAR: Several community groups have put their hands<br />
up for using the old vacant Halswell Library as a community<br />
space.<br />
be successful . . . we needed to<br />
know from the city council there<br />
was a possibility for it being used<br />
then nothing happened,” Ms<br />
Horn said.<br />
City council head of facilities<br />
Bruce Rendall said the old<br />
Halswell Library, based on 381<br />
Halswell Rd, will be reviewed by<br />
the Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton<br />
Community Board and because<br />
of this, no decisions have been<br />
made yet.<br />
He said conversations have<br />
started on a city-wide review<br />
that will progress throughout the<br />
year.<br />
“As such, the property previously<br />
used for providing library<br />
services in Halswell is one of the<br />
facilities being reviewed.<br />
“Matters that the board may<br />
consider include community<br />
demand, other community facilities<br />
in proximity, capital<br />
projects in their area and the cost<br />
of upgrading and maintaining<br />
the property,” he said.<br />
City councillor Anne Galloway<br />
said she was aware of the new<br />
approach for the city council<br />
dealing with the assets they own<br />
and no longer use.<br />
But she did not know when<br />
the community board would be<br />
consulted on this review.<br />
“My hope is the city council<br />
could come to some sort of shortterm<br />
lease agreement,” she said.<br />
Groups including the Halswell<br />
Community Project, Kiwi<br />
Church, Halswell Playcentre and<br />
the CDN Trust have expressed<br />
interest in using the space.<br />
Halswell Playcentre copresident<br />
Karen White said<br />
the empty facility could have<br />
well and truly been used by a<br />
community group.<br />
“I think it would be an<br />
amazing opportunity for a whole<br />
lot of groups to work in together<br />
regardless of each other’s<br />
individual philosophies; to keep<br />
a resource in the community,”<br />
she said.<br />

Making bus rides<br />
more enjoyable<br />
• Ashleigh Monk<br />
MAGDA Lorenzo has spent the<br />
last two months delivering books<br />
to bus stops for commuters to<br />
enjoy.<br />
Ms Lorenzo started the<br />
initiative ‘The Commuting Book’<br />
to encourage reading and the use<br />
of public transport.<br />
The idea is for people to pick<br />
up a book at their bus stop, read<br />
it while they ride the bus, then<br />
drop it off when they get to their<br />
stop.<br />
“The idea behind The<br />
Commuting Books is to create<br />
opportunities for people to<br />
engage in reading by bringing<br />
them (books) into public spaces,”<br />
she said.<br />
“I see bus stops a social hub<br />
and it’s very interesting the way<br />
you can engage in conversation<br />
with people waiting for the bus<br />
with you and sometimes the<br />
books are an excuse to do<br />
that.”<br />
Ms Lorenzo delivered the<br />
books herself on her bicycle she<br />
had named ‘Mantis’.<br />
“It depends on the weather<br />
that day; I can ride for several<br />
hours around the city. Normally<br />
I choose one of the bus routes<br />
and leave the books at the stops<br />
on that route.”<br />
Each book had a ‘Commuting<br />
Book’ sticker with informations<br />
and instructions on the project.<br />
Although Ms Lorenzo has not<br />
had much feedback she said the<br />
travelling of books was a good<br />
sign.<br />
“Some of them are responding<br />
through Facebook. They are<br />
being very generous with their<br />
comments and their feedback.<br />
It’s very encouraging.”<br />
Ms Lorenzo estimated she<br />
had distributed about 230<br />
books so far, and hoped that<br />
number would rise as the project<br />
developed.<br />
“We hope to be implementing<br />
a few different aspects to the<br />
project in the next couple of<br />
months.”<br />

Tasty Bites<br />
• By Gordon Findlater<br />
AT THIS time of the year former<br />
Super Rugby player Ged Robinson<br />
is normally getting towards peak<br />
fitness ahead of a busy season.<br />
This year he’s all about keeping<br />
Christchurch well fed with what<br />
he calls a Kiwi take on Italian style<br />
pizza.<br />
Fed by Ged will be one of many<br />
tasty and nutritious options<br />
available for those needing refuelling<br />
following The Star City2Surf. The<br />
former Crusader, whose mobile<br />
wood fire pizza oven is regularly<br />

Outside<br />
of rugby<br />
Robinson<br />
has always had a love for food. After<br />
recently hanging up the boots he’s<br />
now had more time to concentrate<br />
on that love.<br />
“I’m a front rower so I love food.<br />
I moved to Melbourne and played<br />
over there for three years. My wife<br />
and I spent a lot of time checking out<br />
the city and enjoying the food, that<br />
probably fired up the taste buds even<br />
more,” said Robinson.<br />
His first experiments with pizza<br />
came during his time while playing<br />
for the Melbourne Rebels, regularly<br />
feeding teammates on his own<br />
creations. His passion for fuelling a<br />
squad has grown ever since.<br />
After spending a decade as a<br />
professional rugby player Robinson<br />
knows all about nutrition, something<br />
he’s taken to the oven.<br />
“Italian style pizza has really high<br />
quality meat and really low in sugar<br />
and salt. I do make brown flour<br />
pizza dough as well as the traditional<br />
white. It’s all really good quality,<br />
non-processed food,” said Robinson.<br />
Robinson is continually working<br />
on new creations and by the time<br />
March 19 rolls around he may just<br />
have a new recipe to unveil.<br />

For all your blind repair and cleaning requirements<br />
The Blind Care Company has been<br />
cleaning and repairing the region’s blinds<br />
for over 60 years. Those six decades<br />
have seen changes in both fashion and<br />
technology. Styles have ranged from<br />
festooned fabric swags to straightforward<br />
and still popular holland roller blinds,<br />
from vertical to horizontal slat systems,<br />
and in every colour or pattern popular<br />
since the 1960s.<br />
Whatever your style, the Blind Care<br />
Company has the expertise to keep your<br />
window treatments looking fresh and<br />
working efficiently. Using only ecofriendly<br />
chemicals, the build-up of dirt,<br />
dust, grease, nicotine and smoke residue<br />
can be removed so that your blinds<br />
smell fresh and are restored to their<br />
original glory. The company can repair<br />
blinds also, having a huge range of parts<br />
in stock. And if you want something<br />
completely new, a great range of blinds is<br />
available for purchase.<br />
The company prides itself on efficient<br />
service, providing a fast turn-around,<br />
with most work taking one or two<br />
days, and a same day cleaning option is<br />
available. It makes it as easy as possible<br />
for clients. The Cashel Street location<br />
couldn’t be more convenient and a pickup<br />
and drop-off service is available. 150<br />
blinds per day can be cleaned at this site,<br />
or one of their mobile vans can do up to<br />
50 per day. That means they will come to<br />
your home or office, remove and clean<br />
your blinds on the spot and reinstall them<br />
for you.<br />
A cut-down and size alteration service<br />
is available in order that the blinds you<br />
bought are a perfect fit.<br />
They are experts in their field with a<br />
huge amount of experience to draw on.<br />

they completed in 4 days.<br />

Strengthen your spine, avoid<br />
back pain<br />
Whether it’s from gardening, lifting<br />
something heavy, or twisting awkwardly,<br />
most of us will experience low back pain<br />
during our lifetime and it can certainly<br />
slow us down.<br />
An exciting and effective way of<br />
resolving and preventing low back or neck<br />
pain is Dynamic Spines, a programme run<br />
by Muscle People in Christchurch City<br />
and Bishopdale. As physiotherapist and<br />
director of Muscle People, Laurie Moore,<br />
explains: “Spinal strength and stability is<br />
the focus of the programme, concentrating<br />
on the deep core muscles in the trunk.”<br />
The programme is designed to move<br />
you beyond pain to a place where you feel<br />
confident about taking part in dynamic<br />
activities, and significantly reduce<br />
recurrence of back pain, she says.<br />
Led by physiotherapists, the weekly<br />
exercise programme is conducted for<br />
small groups, with core stability and<br />
spinal muscle control being addressed.<br />
Participants experience clear progression<br />
each week, which will cross over to their<br />
everyday life.<br />
“More than 80 per cent of New Zealanders<br />
suffer from a significant episode of low<br />
back pain during their life,” Laurie says.<br />
“Of these, 84 per cent are likely to have<br />
a recurrence of back pain within a year.<br />
Research shows that those that undergo a<br />
specific spinal strengthening programme<br />
are almost three times better off.”<br />
The benefits of completing the Dynamic<br />
Spines programme:<br />
• Stabilise your spine<br />
• Increase your core strength<br />
• Improve your confidence<br />
• Correct causative factors that may<br />
relate to ongoing pain and recurrent<br />
episodes of low back pain<br />
• Specific training for your back<br />
A Muscle People client who has completed<br />
the Dynamic Spines programmes, Julie,<br />
says: “The course has been life-changing.<br />
I suffered from severe neck pain and was<br />
fearful of any movement. This programme<br />
has strengthened up my neck muscles,<br />
making me feel confident and like a new<br />
woman.”<br />
Another participant, Tor, says: After<br />
partaking in the Dynamic Spines group<br />
exercise programme I definitely feel<br />
stronger all over – thigh muscles, arms,<br />
general increased stamina. This has helped<br />
with my gardening work, with less lower<br />
back niggles.”<br />
Before you join the Dynamic Spines<br />
programme, a physiotherapist will assess<br />
your individual needs. The programme is<br />
then split into two levels. Laurie explains:<br />
After<br />
Before<br />
“The first level is all about learning to locate and then strengthen the appropriate muscles.<br />
The physiotherapists will help each person to achieve this based on their individual<br />
diagnosis and ability.<br />
“The second level focuses on turning those learned skills into habitual movements and<br />
improving strength. Home exercises are also an integral part of the programme.<br />
The Dynamic Spines programme is designed for men and women of all ages and fitness<br />
levels, who have back or neck pain, or with core or postural weakness.<br />

Sutherland returns from US<br />
for Junior All Whites trial<br />
• By Gordon Findlater<br />
FORMER Burnside High<br />
student Joash Sutherland<br />
returned home from the United<br />
States last month to push his<br />
case for a spot in the All Whites<br />
under-20 World Cup squad.<br />
Sutherland, 19, played for<br />
both Burnside and FC Twenty<br />
before leaving for Xavier University<br />
in Cincinnati, Ohio, on<br />
a scholarship midway through<br />
2015.<br />
The midfielder was home over<br />
the Christmas period to attend<br />
a New Zealand under-20 camp<br />
in Auckland.<br />
He was the only Christchurch<br />
player at January’s four-day<br />
Junior All Whites camp. He has<br />
his eyes set on this year’s FIFA<br />
under-20 World Cup in South<br />
Korea, which will take place<br />
between May 20 and June 11.<br />
“It was a really good experience<br />
for me and great to see<br />
a lot of the lads there that I<br />
haven’t seen in a while. All in<br />
all, I think I played well and<br />
worked hard. Obviously there<br />
are a great group of boys there<br />
so it’s going to be a competitive<br />
selection to pick from,” said<br />
Sutherland.<br />
“I’m trying to stay reasonably<br />
calm about the whole process.<br />

CONTINUING EDUCATION<br />
Help your child grow in confidence<br />
Do your children lack self-confidence, or<br />
perhaps have so much energy that they need an<br />
outlet for it? Development through drama is the<br />
ideal approach to teach confidence and channel<br />
youthful energy while building self-esteem.<br />
The Helen O’Grady Drama Academy has been<br />
in New Zealand for 35 years. This highly regarded<br />
international programme helps students aged 5 to<br />
17 fulfil their potential by acting confidently and<br />
speaking clearly. Our unique, self-development<br />
programme helps achieve invaluable life skills.<br />
The confident, articulate child makes friends<br />
easily, accepts challenges and new directions.<br />
Confident children become well-rounded adults.<br />
Our fully qualified teachers are trained in<br />
the Helen O’Grady Drama system, they ensure<br />
each child is encouraged and valued in a warm,<br />
positive learning environment. Lessons stimulate<br />
and motivate students without the exam or<br />
is something I’ve dreamed<br />
for since I was little and has<br />
definitely been one of my many<br />
goals. I definitely think I’m capable<br />
and at the standard to be<br />
a part of the group, but it’s just<br />
a matter of what the coaches<br />
are looking for at the end of the<br />
day.”<br />
He has now returned to<br />
Xavier University ahead of its<br />
spring season, which begins in<br />
March. After nearly two years<br />
at college, Sutherland is becoming<br />
acclimatised to the student<br />
athlete environment.<br />
“I’ve really enjoyed being<br />
over here, meeting people and<br />
studying. Being able to play<br />
football every day at a good level<br />
is something I am really grateful<br />
for. Being a student athlete<br />
is definitely challenging. From<br />
having class in the morning to<br />
going straight to training for<br />
three hours and then to have<br />
one or two more classes in the<br />
afternoon is really full on,” said<br />
Sutherland.<br />
Life during the season is even<br />
busier with the team often travelling<br />
home from away games<br />
on sleeping busses which travel<br />
through the night.<br />
Sutherland will find out<br />
closer to May if he has made the<br />
Junior All Whites World Cup<br />
squad.<br />
peer group pressure. Weekly class activities<br />
include speech training, creative movement and<br />
improvisation. Our Youth Theatre programme<br />
encourages the development of leadership and<br />
organisational skills. We also offer Trinity College<br />
London examinations as an option for those who<br />
wish to pursue an international qualification.<br />
Our safe structured<br />
learning environment<br />
values student<br />
individuality and<br />
encourages team<br />
building. After school<br />

The power of<br />
chlorophyll<br />
Chlorophyll is a truly amazing substance<br />
with powerful health benefits. It is the green<br />
pigment found in plants they use to make<br />
energy through photosynthesis. It is a rich<br />
source of natural minerals, vitamins, amino<br />
acids and antioxidants, which are essential<br />
in balancing and maintaining the alkalinity<br />
of the body. Ideally we want our body to<br />
be slightly alkaline as an acidic body is<br />
prone to unhealthy organisms that can<br />
damage organs, the immune system and<br />
may lead to allergies, asthma, congestion,<br />
fatigue, frequent colds, headaches,<br />
inflammation, joint and muscle pain, skin<br />
problems, ulcers, weight gain and over<br />
the long term arthritis, cancer, diabetes,<br />
fibromyalgia, heart disease, multiple<br />
sclerosis, osteoporosis and stroke. The<br />
biggest contributor to acidity in the body is<br />
our modern diet. Excess acidity is caused<br />
by eating processed foods, too much animal<br />
protein, dairy products and processed<br />
grains such as corn and wheat. Normally<br />
the kidneys maintain our acid/alkaline<br />
balance by adjusting the electrolyte levels<br />
in the body. The electrolytes are calcium,<br />
magnesium, potassium and sodium. The<br />
best source of these electrolytes is raw<br />
fruits and vegetables as cooking depletes<br />
alkalising minerals. Green drinks made<br />
with fresh vegetables or powders are very<br />
alkalising as they contain chlorophyll.<br />
Chlorophyll is structurally similar to our<br />
own blood and alkalises the blood.<br />
Chlorophyll is available in concentrated<br />
liquid form and is an ideal way to help<br />
alkalise and mineralise the body. Generally<br />
5-15ml is taken straight or diluted in<br />
water or juice. Chlorophyll is a powerful<br />
cleansing and detoxifying agent for the<br />
body and blood. It acts as a natural internal<br />
deodoriser, helping with body odour, bad<br />
breath, promoting good digestive function<br />
and supporting overall health and wellbeing.<br />
Chlorophyll supports efficient<br />
oxygen transportation by the blood and as<br />
a result can improve energy and make you<br />
feel more refreshed and invigorated.<br />

Third Aged Tours<br />
Taking people aged over 50 on trips<br />
around New Zealand and the world for<br />
nearly 20 years has earned Third Age Tours<br />
a brag book that Director Brenda Corby-<br />
Yarrall says “businesses would give their<br />
eye teeth for.”<br />
Taking small groups of 10 – 24 people<br />
means I can operate the tour in a relaxed,<br />
companionable manner. We have an<br />
absolute blast when we’re away. It’s all about<br />
having fun.<br />
Most of my trips are run annually<br />
because they’re so popular, but I’m always<br />
adding new destinations - like “Sicily, South<br />
Italy & Vatican” + “Cuba”,<br />
as people ask for them.<br />
Brenda checks out all<br />
accommodation before<br />
booking it, and ensures<br />
the party spends at least a<br />
few nights at each place.<br />
That way you don’t feel<br />
like you’re living out of a<br />
suitcase.<br />
Many clients now have<br />
made over 20 tours with<br />
us, one has completed a<br />
whopping 27 tours.<br />
My clients tell me they<br />
keep coming back because<br />
of the size of the groups and our relaxed<br />
manner. My motto is ‘There are no<br />
strangers, only friends waiting to meet.’<br />
We gather together for breakfast at<br />
8.30am which sets us up for the day and<br />
everybody thinks is a very civilised hour.<br />
I organise incredible trips at incredible<br />
prices. Look around, you can’t find better<br />
for all we include.<br />

WESTERN NEWS<br />
Properties in this location are tightly held and are<br />
rarely becoming available and it is almost impossible to<br />
find an original character home let alone on Sumner’s<br />
waterfront.<br />
Positioned right opposite Cave Rock, Scarborough<br />
and Sumner Beaches and boasting one of the few<br />
homes on the Esplanade with rear access and views<br />
in both directions. Views encapsulate Scarborough<br />
Heads sweeping over Sumner Beach and right along<br />
the coastline to the Kaikoura Ranges and the Southern<br />
Alps.<br />
Built approximately 100 years ago when<br />
craftsmanship was valued this graceful character home<br />
has great street appeal, good bones and untapped<br />
potential. Clearly cherished and lovingly maintained<br />
with gleaming timber floors throughout and a good old<br />
fashioned ambience.<br />
All the ground floor is dedicated to two generous<br />
sized living rooms, one which is open plan with the<br />
kitchen and has French doors opening on to the rear<br />
garden, the other being the formal dining and living<br />
room area.<br />
Upstairs hosts four bedrooms, two that are large and<br />
two smaller plus a sunroom which is sure to be the best<br />
seat in the house.<br />
The grounds are much larger than first appear with<br />
a well laid out back area for the family to enjoy, rear<br />
access from the ROW (off Burgess St) and off street<br />
parking, garage and a workshop/studio/storage room.<br />
This is an ideal location to raise your family and<br />
offers a beachy laid back lifestyle. Enjoy a surf or swim<br />
after work or a morning stroll along the Esplanade. Life<br />
doesn’t get much better than this.<br />
With a myriad of village shops, cafes and boutiques<br />
within close proximity from your door, you are sure to<br />
enjoy the benefits of such a prime address.<br />
A treasured family home for the past 35 years, it is now<br />
time for our owner to say goodbye. Here’s your chance<br />
to stamp your mark and purchase this special property.<br />
Your earliest inspection is highly recommended.<br />
Open Home Dates: Wednesday, Saturday and<br />
Sunday 11:00 a.m. - 11:45 a.m until auction day. See<br />
you at one of the Open Days, or for a private viewing<br />
