SKATE PARK SITES RELEASED<br />

• By Sarla Donovan<br />

A SKATE park between<br />

Ferrymead and Sumner is a<br />

step closer with the release of a<br />

shortlist with four suitable sites.<br />

They are Sumner beach next<br />

to the Surf Life Saving Club,<br />

Scott Park in Ferrymead, the<br />

old Redcliffs School grounds on<br />

Main Rd, and the former Marine<br />

Tavern site at 26 Nayland St,<br />

Sumner.<br />

The four were chosen from a<br />

list of 57.<br />

Public consultation on the sites<br />

will take place from <strong>January</strong> 29<br />

to February 26 with a decision<br />

from the Linwood-Central-<br />

Heathcote Community Board<br />

likely in April.<br />

Sumner Green and Skate<br />

group member Liza Sparrow said<br />

it was “really thrilled” with the<br />

sites. They all had merit, she said,<br />

but the group would continue to<br />

support a permanent site within<br />

Sumner.<br />

“It works well with the surf<br />

and skate culture, is also good<br />

for local business and it adds<br />

vibrancy to the area.”<br />

Board member Tim Lindley<br />

said he had no particular preference.<br />

“They would each offer quite<br />

a different experience. It’s a case<br />

of putting these out for consultation<br />

– they’ve all got pluses and<br />

minuses.”<br />

Board member Darrell Latham<br />

said the Sumner community had<br />

warmed to the Nayland St site.<br />

“Sumner locals have wanted<br />

centrality to the village, a place<br />

think it’s a good site. (Redcliffs<br />

Matt Cockcroft lives next door<br />

to the former Redcliffs School<br />

site on Main Rd.<br />

He said he would be happy for<br />

a skate park to go there provided<br />

it was in the middle of the park,<br />

visible from the road and residents<br />

could have input into the<br />

design.<br />

THERE’S ONE nice, happy ending story<br />

on page 5 today.<br />

Hank, the border collie cross we<br />

featured over Christmas has found a<br />

home.<br />

Hank was on our front page promoting<br />

the Dogwatch Sanctuary Trust’s <strong>2018</strong> calendar. He wasn’t in it<br />

– only canines that have been rehomed make the cut.<br />

Hank had been at Dogwatch since October, and the people<br />

who run the deserving organisation needed a family with the<br />

patience to take him – Hank has a few quirks.<br />

That’s not uncommon in dogs that end up in the pound;<br />

they’ve usually been pushed from pillar to post before they get<br />

there.<br />

So a new start for the two year-old, who also has a new<br />

name: Gus. Good stuff. – Barry Clarke<br />

New building planned for library<br />

THE OPAWA community is set<br />

to get a new building to house its<br />

voluntary library.<br />

The city council has made a<br />

decision to invest in a new facility<br />

rather than repair the old.<br />

The earthquake-damaged<br />

Opawa Library building has<br />

been closed since 2011, with the<br />

volunteer-run library operating<br />

out of interim premises in<br />

the nearby Opawa Children’s<br />

Library building.<br />

Initially the city council had<br />

considered repairing the library<br />

building. However, it has come<br />

up with a new plan that will<br />

allow both the library and the<br />

children’s library to shift into a<br />

new, modern building.<br />

“Providing a great place for<br />

the Opawa Library has been a<br />

priority for the city council,’’<br />

said Lester Wolfreys, city council<br />

head of community support,<br />

partnerships and governance.<br />

He said a recent comprehensive<br />

costing of repairs to reinstate<br />

the Opawa Library had<br />

come in significantly over the<br />

available budget.<br />

“Fortunately, some recent<br />

design and build proposals the<br />

city council has received from<br />

builders for other projects suggested<br />

to us that we could do<br />

something similar for Opawa<br />

REBUILD: The Opawa voluntary library will get a new building after its former site was<br />

earthquake-damaged. It has been working out of a temporary facility (right) for seven years.<br />

PHOTOS: GILBERT WEALLEANS<br />

that meets the community’s<br />

needs for the money we have.”<br />

“A design/build is effectively a<br />

design competition – the community<br />

representatives will work<br />

closely with the city council to<br />

agree on exactly what we need,<br />

then we provide some very<br />

precise direction to the market,”<br />

he said.<br />

“We want a modern, lowenergy<br />

and accessible building<br />

of about 200 sq m, and a design/<br />

build contract is a cost-effective<br />

way to get all of this in one package.”<br />

Linwood-Central-Heathcote<br />

Community Board chairwoman<br />

Sally Buck said the board is very<br />

supportive of both libraries and<br />

has pushed for the new facility to<br />

be a priority.<br />

The new facility will be built<br />

on the existing library site at 151<br />

Opawa Rd.<br />

Mr Wolfreys said the first<br />

step is to work with the library<br />

groups to decide what is required<br />

to co-locate the libraries<br />

and create an attractive and<br />

accessible meeting place for the<br />

community.<br />

“With the original Opawa<br />

Library a notable landmark in<br />

the area for generations, there is<br />

a strong desire for the new building<br />

to feature heritage elements<br />

from the original,’’ he said.<br />

The design will be signed off<br />

by a joint working group made<br />

up of members of the board,<br />

staff, and representatives from<br />

the Opawa Library and the<br />

Opawa Children’s Library.<br />

Opawa Public Library Committee<br />

president Marianne Field<br />

said volunteers are eagerly looking<br />

forward to getting things<br />

back up and running as soon as<br />

they can in a modern space that<br />

works for everyone.<br />

Lincoln Rd’s four-lane plan<br />

Halswell<br />

Residents’<br />

Association<br />

secretary David<br />

Hawke writes<br />

about roading<br />

changes in<br />

the area and<br />

how they will affect the<br />

community<br />

THE FOUR-LANING of Lincoln<br />

Rd, between Curletts and<br />

Wrights Rds, looks to be going<br />

ahead after years of languishing<br />

unbudgeted in the city council’s<br />

Long Term Plan.<br />

The four-laning is for<br />

bus priority, not cars. Once<br />

completed, this will allow the<br />

New Zealand Transport Agency<br />

to four-lane its section of Lincoln<br />

and Halswell Rds, again for bus<br />

priority.<br />

At one level, this is a great idea.<br />

Giving buses the chance to make<br />

their way without being caught<br />

up in car traffic will shorten<br />

travel time and make their travel<br />

time more consistent. These<br />

improvements will encourage<br />

people to use the bus at peak<br />

times.<br />

The problem is what happens<br />

when these buses (and all the<br />

cars from the ever-growing<br />

numbers of houses) arrive at the<br />

gates of Addington Village – the<br />

intersection with Whiteleigh<br />

Ave? Although the need for the<br />

improvement of this intersection<br />

is well understood, we need plans<br />

and action.<br />

The stated reason for the fourlaning<br />

is to enable increased bus<br />

frequency and increased bus<br />

reliability.<br />

However, buses already run<br />

every 15min, and we query how<br />

much this frequency can be<br />

increased. Our counts<br />

show that buses are already<br />

nearly full at peak<br />

times, so it’s unlikely<br />

that the improved reliability<br />

can do much to<br />

boost patronage in the<br />

face of ongoing population<br />

growth.<br />

And again, what happens<br />

when these buses<br />

arrive at Addington?<br />

There is clearly the<br />

potential for Addington<br />

Village to drown in a sea<br />

of cars (and buses).<br />

Halswell Residents’<br />

Association would like to<br />

see some outside-the-square<br />

thinking about both transport<br />

and work in the south-west of<br />

Christchurch (including Prebbleton,<br />

Lincoln, Rolleston), rather<br />

than the piecemeal approach that<br />

city council seems to be following.<br />

This was an idea we got from<br />

Wigram MP Megan Woods. It<br />

fits well with the intent of the<br />

Greater Christchurch Urban<br />

Development Strategy, and seems<br />

pretty good to us.<br />

Some random ideas come t<br />

mind too: Mixed-mode travel,<br />

car-sharing, e-bike subsidies,<br />

work-from-home schemes and<br />

children going to their local<br />

schools.<br />

ABOUT <strong>30</strong>0 dead birds have<br />

been discovered around the<br />

Bromley oxidation ponds.<br />

Initial indications suggest<br />

the birds have fallen victim to<br />

avian botulism, a disease which<br />

causes paralysis in birds and<br />

often results in death.<br />

Outbreaks of avian botulism<br />

are not uncommon in New<br />

Zealand and other parts of the<br />

world, and have occurred in<br />

Christchurch previously.<br />

The city council is removing<br />

the dead birds in an attempt to<br />

slow the spread of the disease.<br />

It is also checking other<br />

wetland areas to check whether<br />

any of them have been affected<br />

by the disease, which is caused<br />

when birds eat toxin produced<br />

by clostridium botulinum<br />

bacteria.<br />

Clostridium botulinum<br />

naturally occurs in soils found<br />

in ponds and wetlands. It is<br />

harmless until the right environmental<br />

factors occur.<br />

Most avian botulism outbreaks<br />

are caused by ducks<br />

CHRISTMAS CAME early for<br />

Hank the border collie cross.<br />

After featuring as poster boy<br />

for Dogwatch Sanctuary Trust’s<br />

<strong>2018</strong> calendar and more than<br />

two months at the trust, the<br />

two-year-old was adopted on<br />

December 24.<br />

He starred on the front page of<br />

the <strong>Southern</strong> <strong>View</strong> over Christmas.<br />

So he now has a new home<br />

– and a new name. He is now<br />

called Gus. His new owner said<br />

he had come along way in a short<br />

space of time – describing him as<br />

a “dolphin” in the water.<br />

“He is very affectionate and<br />

gaining more confidence as he<br />

gets to know the neighbourhood.<br />

He is very responsive to commands<br />

and appears a quick and<br />

willing learner.”<br />

“I think further down the<br />

track when he is completely<br />

chilled he will enjoy his new<br />

home.”<br />

The bright, lovely and playful<br />

animal, according to trust<br />

manager Pam Howard, had been<br />

without a home since October.<br />

Mrs Howard said many people<br />

had wanted to adopt Gus, but<br />

just weren’t a right fit.<br />

Gus had been at the city coun-<br />

SETTLING IN: With time, Gus<br />

trust, and had some “quirks” she<br />

said.<br />

She described Gus as “resource<br />

guarder” – a dog that growls and<br />

snarls at other animals and people<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

Somerfield woman’s exercise cure<br />

PROGRESS: Less than a year after her knee and hip<br />

replacements, Jude Nuttridge is walking tracks such as the<br />

Rob Roy Glacier. ​<br />

LAST Christmas, Jude<br />

Nuttridge was awaiting<br />

replacements – two knees and<br />

one hip.<br />

This Christmas, the<br />

Somerfield resident completed<br />

the Rob Roy Glacier track – as<br />

well as a couple more walks that<br />

she says “for me would have<br />

been impossible.”<br />

She credits a programme<br />

available in south-west<br />

Christchurch, which she says<br />

changed her life forever.<br />

She enrolled last year in Sport<br />

Canterbury’s Be Active course<br />

in Spreydon. In term 1 this year,<br />

the same course is available<br />

in the Wigram, Sockburn and<br />

Hornby areas, as well as again at<br />

Spreydon.<br />

When Mrs Nuttridge arrived<br />

at her first Be Active session,<br />

she didn’t know a single person<br />

there.<br />

“It was a great mix of people.<br />

If you’re numbering people’s<br />

(fitness) from one to 10, there<br />

were ones and 10s. The last<br />

thing you want to turn up to is a<br />

bunch of lycra-clad gurus.”<br />

Be Active programme<br />

participants appreciate the<br />

variety of low-impact activities<br />

on offer from circuit, boxing<br />

and badminton, to tai chi<br />

and Zumba. During group<br />

discussions, participants share<br />

ways of maintaining a healthy<br />

lifestyle, drawing on support<br />

from group leaders and fellow<br />

participants.<br />

According to Mrs Nuttridge,<br />

“the other thing that stands<br />

out in my mind were the<br />

personalities of the two girls,<br />

Sam and Abby. They were so<br />

welcoming, so friendly.”<br />

Mrs Nuttridge’s doctor had<br />

given her two options for her<br />

knee and hip pain – wait on<br />

replacements or hold off as long<br />

as you can by increasing your<br />

mobility.<br />

“It (Be Active) just gave me<br />

some impetus to think I can do<br />

this.<br />

“I don’t need to let this<br />

dominate.”<br />

Mrs Nuttridge’s family<br />

admires the commitment she<br />

has made to getting active and<br />

changing her life.<br />

“I’ve got two grown-up<br />

daughters who say ‘mum, it’s<br />

like a miracle.’ I don’t feel like<br />

a person who’s got an issue any<br />

more. I feel like a person who<br />

occasionally has sore knees and<br />

sore hips. Yes, it can be a drag<br />

and it can slow you down, but it<br />

doesn’t stop you doing things.”<br />

Mrs Nuttridge has been<br />

grateful to the team at Sport<br />

Canterbury for supporting her<br />

to try new activities that benefit<br />

all aspects of her life.<br />

“You just do it and get it over<br />

with. The more you do, the<br />

more you can do. Be Active<br />

gets your head into a different<br />

space, which I think is really<br />

important.”<br />

“You stop being a victim and<br />

start becoming the master of<br />

your destiny.”<br />

New year –<br />

new family store<br />

in Sydenham<br />

For the Salvation Army’s Sydenham congregation and<br />

the local community, the start of the New Year has been<br />

marked with the launch of a new Salvation Army Family<br />

Store in Sydenham.<br />

Located on the corner of Carlyle and Gasson streets,<br />

the store opened its doors on <strong>January</strong> 3, replacing the<br />

small shop that was part of the church premises on the<br />

Colombo/Southampton Street corner.<br />

“Our spacious new store now sells furniture in addition<br />

to clothing, bric-a-brac, books and toys. We would be<br />

very grateful for any donations of furniture, which we<br />

are happy to collect. The number to call is 332 8277 to<br />

arrange collection, or alternatively it can be dropped<br />

into the store,” operations manager Greg Kendrew says.<br />

Greg is keen to acknowledge the generosity of people<br />

in the community that donate items to the Salvation<br />

Army, and also the 25 volunteers that work in the store.<br />

“They make the place happen – we couldn’t do it<br />

without them,” he says.<br />

Proceeds from the sales go towards the range of<br />

community services provided by the Salvation Army<br />

in Sydenham. These include counselling, budgeting<br />

advice, foodbank, and their DALTA Team, a group of<br />

volunteers who work in the community three days a<br />

week helping people with tasks around their home and<br />

property, which they are unable to manage themselves.<br />

“These are people who perhaps have fallen through the<br />

cracks and have not had access to government agency or<br />

other services. We look at their situation and step in to<br />

provide solutions for them if appropriate,” Greg says.<br />

The new Salvation Army Family Store in Sydenham<br />

is open Monday to Friday, 9am-4.<strong>30</strong>pm and Saturday,<br />

9.<strong>30</strong>am-1.<strong>30</strong>pm.<br />

AUTOMOTIVE PROFESSIONALS<br />

New premises<br />

for car light<br />

specialists<br />

NEW<br />

LOCATION<br />

95<br />

gasson st<br />

Long-established car light specialists,<br />

Braxton Car Lights, are now shining their<br />

lights from a sparkling new address – just<br />

around the corner from their familiar<br />

Brougham Street site.<br />

Just prior to Christmas, the business<br />

moved from 325 Brougham Street to 95<br />

Gasson St, where they offer a brighter<br />

showroom, easier access for their customers<br />

and plenty of off-street parking.<br />

“We’re all set up in our new premises,”<br />

sales manager Richard Vernimmen says,<br />

“and continuing to provide our customers<br />

with an extensive range of replacement<br />

lights for most Japanese, European and<br />

New Zealand-made vehicles. We can cover<br />

most vehicles on the road, and all our lights<br />

are fully checked and in perfect working<br />

order.”<br />

If they don’t have it in stock, they can<br />

source it from one of the other branches in<br />

the nationwide BE Group, Richard says. BE<br />

is one of New Zealand’s largest importers of<br />

car, truck and commercial parts.<br />

Braxton Car Lights also offers a repair<br />

service for headlights, with their skilled<br />

staff of three having 80 years’ experience<br />

in the automotive trade between them.<br />

They also specialise in light adjuster and<br />

light conversion of American<br />

car lights and their repair<br />

service includes plastic<br />

welding, drying out, and<br />

re-silvering, re-sealing<br />

and lens refurbishment.<br />

Their services can also<br />

be arranged through<br />

your own local garage or<br />

workshop.<br />

So, next time you need<br />

replacement car lights, call<br />

into Braxton Car Lights’ bright new<br />

Belly dancing fun<br />

for men & women<br />

The new term of Beginners belly dance<br />

classes at Kashmir Belly Dance in South<br />

Brighton starts in February. The class will<br />

be on Monday evenings from February 12<br />

at 6.<strong>30</strong>pm, while a mixed class (men and<br />

women) will be on Thursday evenings from<br />

February 15 at 7.<strong>30</strong>pm.<br />

Anyone enrolling and pre-paying by<br />

February 10 will receive a $20 discount.<br />

Enrolments are through the website, www.<br />

bellyraqs.co.nz.<br />

The eight, 75-minute classes comprise an<br />

hour of dance movement and 15 minutes of<br />

background information on belly dancing,<br />

with videos and music.<br />

With one husband and wife already signed<br />

up, instructor Kashmir is encouraging more<br />

men to join the mixed class.<br />

“Belly dancing is not just for women,” she<br />

says. “It is fun and enjoyable for everyone.”<br />

Belly dancing can also be a step on the way<br />

to a new fitness regime, and participants get<br />

to know how their body works through the<br />

various movements, Kashmir says.<br />

Kashmir Belly Dance is located at 8<br />

Drake Street, South Brighton.<br />

Traditional<br />

social dancing<br />

of Scotland<br />

For hundreds of years Scottish Country<br />

Dancing was enjoyed at every level of<br />

society, from royal ballrooms to village halls.<br />

Over the last 100 years it has been developed<br />

to maintain its unique style and music, while<br />

keeping pace with the modern world.<br />

There are Scottish Country Dance clubs<br />

on every continent of the world, which is<br />

testament to the universal appeal of the<br />

dancing. Here in the Christchurch area there<br />

are nine clubs providing the opportunity to<br />

enjoy this pastime Monday to Thursday, plus<br />

a children’s class on Saturday mornings and<br />

combined dances most Saturday evenings.<br />

The health benefits of Scottish Country<br />

Dancing are documented. The physical<br />

movements exercise the body. The patterns<br />

of the dances are great for keeping the brain<br />

on its toes. The music, which lifts the spirits,<br />

and the social interaction complete the<br />

package.<br />

Just step on the mat…<br />

This is the advice given to people who<br />

want to learn aikido, Aikido Shinryukan<br />

Canterbury’s chief instructor Andrew<br />

Williamson says.<br />

“It really is that easy. Of course, every<br />

new student is naturally apprehensive about<br />

beginning a Japanese martial art – we have<br />

all ‘been there’. But to begin you need to take<br />

that first step and it really is not that scary.”<br />

Beginners are eased into training through<br />

basics classes.<br />

“Step by step we build your knowledge.<br />

We focus on beginners understanding the<br />

fundamentals of aikido so they can enjoy<br />

developing their skills. Anyone can do<br />

WORKOUT,<br />

SWIM, RELAX<br />

aikido regardless of age or fitness,” Andrew<br />

says.<br />

“We want students to develop technically<br />

and physically as quickly as they are<br />

capable. We can then introduce them to<br />

more advanced training and international<br />

instructors and build on the total knowledge<br />

base held in our group.”<br />

Aikido Shinryukan Canterbury offers daily<br />

classes for adults and children in Burnside<br />

and Linwood.<br />

For February, beginners may train<br />

for just $20. For more information<br />

Line up for fun –<br />

learn to Line Dance<br />

The dance floor – a place where bills and<br />

responsibility don’t exist, where stress is<br />

gone and nothing matters but the music. The<br />

dance floor is freedom, say the Cathedral<br />

City Line Dancers.<br />

A recent German study tested people<br />

who tried different forms of exercise and<br />

then measured their hippocampuses (the<br />

memory centre of their brains) and those<br />

who did Line Dancing were better protected<br />

from dementia and memory loss.<br />

So, if you like to dance, want a social life<br />

with a friendly bunch of people and a lot of<br />

laughs while exercising your brain, then Line<br />

Dancing could be just what you are looking<br />

for. They even cater for people with two left<br />

feet.<br />

You can have all this, plus meet new<br />

friends by joining Cathedral City Line<br />

Dancers and learning to dance with Mary.<br />

Exercise<br />

sharpens young<br />

adult brains<br />

Regular physical activity improves brain function<br />

even in young adults considered in their prime<br />

and at the height of cognitive ability, according to<br />

a University of Otago study.<br />

A body of research already exists showing<br />

aerobic exercise improves brain function<br />

in older adults, but there is a limited<br />

amount of literature on how it affects<br />

young adults.<br />

The Otago researchers, led by<br />

Department of Psychology Senior<br />

Lecturer Dr Liana Machado, set out to<br />

test the oft-held belief that the brains of<br />

young adults in their prime might not<br />

benefit as much as older people from<br />

regular sustained exercise.<br />

They took 52 tertiary students, aged<br />

between 18 to <strong>30</strong>, and put them through<br />

a series of cognitive tests on a computer<br />

while measuring oxygen availability in<br />

the frontal lobe of their brains, as well as<br />

their self-reported exercise frequency.<br />

Dr Machado says their “surprising”<br />

findings, just published online in the<br />

journal Psychophysiology, show that<br />

both blood supply to the brain and<br />

cognitive functioning appear to benefit<br />

from regular exercise in young adults.<br />

“This provides compelling evidence<br />

that regular exercise, at least five days per<br />

week, is a way to sharpen our cognitive<br />

ability as young adults – challenging<br />

the assumption that living a sedentary<br />

lifestyle leads to problems only later in<br />

life,” she says.<br />

The research also provides potential<br />

insight into understanding why people<br />

who regularly engage in aerobic exercise<br />

tend to function better on a cognitive<br />

level.<br />

“I think the idea that young people do<br />

not have to worry about exercising since<br />

they are in their prime developmentally<br />

is rapidly being overturned by mounting<br />

evidence that even the brains of young<br />

adults can benefit from regular exercise,”<br />

she says.<br />

“The exercise could involve brisk<br />

walking or more vigorous activity, and<br />

could be made up of a few 10 minute<br />

bouts of exercise, rather than one single<br />

block of exercise,” she says.<br />

The researchers also found that body<br />

mass index was not a key factor in how<br />

well the brain functioned, indicating that<br />

regular engagement in physical activity<br />

may be more important than body<br />

weight.<br />

Dr Machado says she had noticed<br />

over the years that university students<br />

appeared progressively less fit.<br />

“I wondered whether we might find<br />

significant relationships between exercise<br />

levels, oxygen availability in the brain,<br />

and cognition in the young adults, but<br />

no studies had considered this in healthy<br />

young adults.”<br />

These findings come at a time of<br />

increased scientific focus on links<br />

between exercise and cognitive health in<br />

older adults.<br />
