Mother punched defending son 

‘Thomson 

Park is the 

problem 

spot’ 

• By Sophie Cornish 

A SOUTH New Brighton woman 

was left with a badly bruised face 

after trying to defend her autistic 

son against a teenage bully. 

Erica Godfrey was punched 

at the Thomson Skate Park after 

confronting a teenager who had 

pushed and threatened her son. 

Her son, Isaiah, 14, told her of 

the incident when she picked him 

to take him home. Isaiah has autism, 

ADHD and a laryngeal paillomatosis 

tumour in his throat. 

Mrs Godfrey then confronted 

the teenager who was still at the 

skate park. 

“I started trying to explain to 

the boy that my son was trying 

to make friends with him but 

because he has a throat tumour 

he can’t talk clearly and with his 

autism he doesn’t communicate 

very well,” she said. 

The teenager wouldn’t listen to 

Mrs Godfrey, telling her he has 

anger problems and then punched 

her hard in the face. 

Mrs Godfrey told him she was 

calling the police, to which he 

said: “So what, there’s no cameras, 

you can’t ID me, get over it.”

ensued and the teenager was 

eventually caught in New 

Brighton. 

The 14-year-old bully has been 

referred to Youth Aid. 

Mrs Godfrey is now calling on 

the city council to look at funding 

security cameras in Thomson Park. 

“Thomson Park is the problem 

spot . . . it needs to be opened up 

more, some of the trees pulled 

back a bit and some lighting and 

cameras,” she said.

JASMINE TULI is one step away from 

being recognised as one of rugby league’s 

top volunteers. 

The passionate Linwood Keas club 

member (see page 8) is a finalist in the 

female volunteer of the year category at the New Zealand Rugby 

League awards in Auckland on Saturday night. 

She is the premier squad manager, is a director of the club and 

has a lot to do with the junior teams. 

Her husband Teni, aka the ‘Godfather’, tragically died on the 

training field during 2015, one game short of his 300th for the 

Keas. It was going to be his last premier grade match. 

Says Jasmine: “We are a league family and that is all we do. It 

is in my blood.” 

All the best for Saturday.

Fire rages, homes at risk 

SERVICE: Prestons New World customer service manager Sarah Gudsell helps Izzy Taylor, of Mairehau, with her groceries on 

the supermarket’s opening day.

Prestons New World opens 

MARSHLAND residents have 

been hit by a “mini 

economic boom” as the 

Prestons New World 

employing more than 

100 staff opened its 

doors on Friday. 

Owner and grocer 

Julia Spence said 80 

per cent of the staff live 

locally and opening day 

sales had been excellent. 

The recruitment 

process for the supermarket 

proved popular, with people 

lined up outside the Marshland 

Julia Spence 

scouts hall where it was being 

run. The store was opened 

by Christchurch East MP 

Poto Williams 

A Ngai Tahu Property 

(Prestons developer) 

spokeswoman said it was 

thrilled to see the supermarket 

opening. 

“As a part of the 

original masterplan, it 

was envisaged that the 

development would 

include a thriving retail 

area anchored by a New World 

supermarket, so to see it come 

to fruition is very rewarding.” 

“Residents we have spoken with 

are very excited to have this facility 

on their doorstep and they 

are eagerly awaiting the (opening 

of) further stores in the coming 

months,” she said. 

The store features some new 

innovations such as a ‘vertical 

wall’ in the produce department. 

This refrigeration shelving system 

allows fruit and vegetables 

to be displayed with minimal 

packaging to reduce wastage. 

The system works by misting 

the produce with water to keep 

it fresh. 

This feature has also been 

rolled out in a few other 

Christchurch stores, receiving 

“some of the most positive 

feedback from customers owners 

have ever received,” said a 

spokeswoman from Foodstuffs 

New Zealand. 

Ms Spence said she has been 

living and breathing the grocery 

business since she was a “nipper.” 

“I went to my first Foodstuffs 

conference with my parents 

when I was six-weeks-old,” she 

said. 

Ms Spence bought her first 

store when she was 24, a Four 

Square in Akaroa. 

HOT POOLS FEEDBACK 

Development Christchurch Ltd 

has analysed the feedback received 

during the public engagement 

on the New Brighton hot pools. 

Consultation was open from late 

October to early November. It has 

contributed to the way the pools 

are being designed, with strong 

themes of wind protection, shelter, 

seating, parking, and accessibility 

coming through in the feedback. 

Finalised concept designs are 

expected in the coming months 

when preparations will also begin 

for consenting. 

QE II MASTER PLAN 

The city council is set to start 

developing a master plan that will 

help guide the future use of QE 

II Park in collaboration with the 

community. The plan will set out 

the vision for the park and how it is 

used . The city council project team 

will ask immediate neighbours of 

the park and the wider community 

for input.

Good Samaritans help with school costs 


A NORTH New Brighton couple 

raised more than $900 in a week 

to help families with 

their back-to-school 

costs. 

Jason and Liz Harber 

donated more than 60 

school stationery packs 

to the Compassion 

Trust, with help from 

the community and 

work colleagues. 

The couple received a 

“hugely overwhelming” response 

after posting on a New Brighton 

community Facebook page asking 

where they could drop off 16 

primary school stationary packs 

they had made up with items 

bought from The Warehouse. 

“There was so many positive 

responses, it was unbelievable,” 

said Mrs Harber. 

Following this, she told her 

work colleagues at 

the Christchurch Casino 

administration 

office about the idea 

and, by the end of the 

day, she had raised 

more than $850. 

Another 28 primary 

school packs 

were created and 

donated as well as 22 

year 9 packs, including scientific 

calculators. 

The Compassion Trust helps 

more than 250 families in east 

Christchurch with free services, 

such as financial mentoring, 

‘street kitchens’, emergency aid 

Jason and Liz Harber 

and house repair services. 

Trust manager Anne Addei 

said the donations, as well as 

the online responses, had been 

“mind-blowing and amazing.” 

“This time of year is our craziest 

time. It’s when people get the 

most stressed. To tell you the 

truth, most of our clients don’t 

ever have spare money so to be 

able to plan ahead for these costs, 

it is just too hard,” she said. 

DONATIONS: Some of 

the back-to-school items 

purchased with the money 

raised by Jason and Liz 

Harber to form stationery 

packs. 

Mrs Harber wants people to 

understand how easy it is to 

make a difference. “You don’t 

really need a big plan in place, 

you literally just have to go out 

and buy things and give them 

away.” 

“I think people think there is 

more to it than there actually is 

. . . the stuff we got was all quite 

generic for those specific age 

groups so it made it easier,” said 

Mrs Harber. 

Cops join Aranui kids for barbecue 

WITH temperatures soaring to 

31 deg C, families cooled off at 

the Aranui Community Trust 

Back 2 School Barbecue. 

Funded through the city 

council’s neighbourhood week 

programme, the barbecue at 

Wainoni Park was attended 

by more than 200 community 

members. “It was a fun day 

with people connecting with 

their neighbours,” said trust 

spokeswoman Tracey Hunter. 

Sausages were cooked by the 

neighbourhood policing team 

and ice creams were supplied 

by the Ara Institute of 

Canterbury.

Council bins full of household rubbish 

SCORCHING temperatures may 

have sent people to the beach, 

but it also put pressure on 

rubbish bins. 

The city council says the 

problem is being exacerbated 

by people dumping household 

rubbish, including umbrellas, 

televisions and boogie boards, in 

public bins. 

The city council has been 

criticised for failing to keep up 

with clearing rubbish bins, firstly 

at the popular New Brighton 

ISSUES: More rubbish bins 

were installed at the New 

Brighton seaside playground 

after over-flowing issues. 

seaside playground and then 

again last week at beaches in the 

Bay area. 

Extra bins have now been 

added near the playground. 

City council acting head 

of parks Brent Smith said its 

contractor has collected 20 per 

cent more rubbish compared to 

the same period last year. 

“While the warm weather is 

partly to blame for the increase, 

people misusing the bins has 

been another contributing 

factor,” he said. 

Joe’s Garage, a cafe in Sumner, 

has even offered people a free 

coffee if they fill a bucket with 

rubbish and bring it back to the 

cafe. 

Mr Smith said the city council 

has added an extra bin collection 

in the Sumner area in the 

evening. 

“We’re also investigating some 

long-term changes that could 

help ensure we keep on top of 

the rubbish. We’re looking at 

the number and style of bins we 

provide and we are also looking 

at improved signage to inform 

and encourage appropriate 

behaviour,’’ Mr Smith said. 

He said the city council had 

also had a high number of 

illegal rubbish dumping 

reported. 

“We have had 72 requests for 

service come in over the past two 

months that relate to rubbish 

being dumped illegally, which is 

an unacceptably high number,” 

he said. 

“We do our best to keep our 

beaches, parks and public spaces 

tidy by making sure we regularly 

empty the rubbish bins, but we 

need the public to play their 

part too and take some civic 

responsibility,’’ Mr Smith said. 

Aranui Primary future may lie with community 

Options for site to be discussed 

at meeting tomorrow 


THE MINISTRY of Education 

has said it has no plans to 

demolish any of the 

buildings at the Aranui 

Primary School site, 

allowing community 

groups to come together 

to discuss its future. 

Coastal-Burwood 

Community Board 

member Tim Baker 

wants the community 

to be involved with 

what happens to the 

site. 

“We want to discuss 

what is best for the future . . . let’s 

talk about it as a community and 

let the community decide,” said 

Mr Baker. 

The school closed in December 

2016 and merged with Avondale 

Tim Baker 

Primary, Wainoni School and 

Aranui High School to form 

Haeata Community Campus. 

A meeting will be held 

tomorrow about the 

possibility of using 

the site for affordable 

housing. 

Mr Baker said he 

will be one of several 

individuals, including 

Christchurch East 

MP Poto Williams, 

meeting about 

affordable housing 

in the east, with the 

Aranui Primary 

site (right) being 

one option for housing. 

He suggested another option 

for the site is that it may be 

purchased by a community 

organisation. 

“Why pull down buildings 

that an organisation may want 

to purchase the whole lot of,” 

said Mr Baker, hinting at the 

possibility there may be a group 

interested. 

The site is currently used 

by two groups: The Incredible 

Years, an under five parenting 

programme, and Te Kupenga o 

Aranui, an alternative education 

programme for teenagers with 

learning difficulties. 

The community board is 

waiting on Minister of Education 

Chris Hipkins to arrange a time 

to discuss several school sites on 

the east. 

“We know they have been busy 

with the 100-day plan and we are 

a very small priority,” said Mr 

Baker.

NEW ROAD markings are to 

be put in on Rothesay Rd in a 

bid to deter speeding motorists. 

The Parklands road between 

Queenspark and Putake Drives 

has had ongoing issues with 

excessive vehicle speeds. 

In a memo to the Coastal- 

Burwood Community Board, 

city council staff said it is likely 

due to the fact that part of 

Rothesay Rd has a forest on 

the north side with no road 

markings. 

“It presents a very open traffic 

environment and perhaps feels 

less like a 50km/h urban road 

but more like a higher speed 

rural road to some users,” city 

council staff said. 

The board asked staff to 

investigate the possibility of 

relocating bollards to address 

the parking and speeding 

issues. 

However, staff told the board: 

“Removing/relocating the 

bollards at the front north side 

of the parking bays . . . may in 

fact be counter-productive in 

that it would create an even 

more open traffic environment 

and potentially lead to higher 

vehicle speeds.” 

Instead staff said to 

address both speed issues 

and encroachment of parked 

vehicles, new road markings are 

to be installed. 

New edge and centre lines 

will be painted around the 

curve opposite 102 and 

104 Rothesay Rd. There are 

currently no road markings 

there. 


Rothesay Rd speed solution 

PLANS: Rothesay Rd as it is now and with the planned new 

road markings to deter speeding motorists. 

“The proposed road markings 

will define the edge of the 

roadway and therefor the depth 

of the parking bays as well as 

provide a visual narrowing 

of the roadway and present a 

more urban road environment 

that will help moderate vehicle 

speeds,” the memo said.

LONG-TIME RUGBY league 

supporter Jasmine Tuli has been 

recognised for her work with the 

Linwood Keas. 

Mrs Tuli is a finalist in the 

female volunteer category at 

the New Zealand Rugby League 

Awards in Auckland on Saturday 

night. 

She is the premier squad’s 

manager, director of the club 

in 2017, oversaw the junior 

committee and under-18 squad, 

managed and trained the 

under-16s, helped create the 

premier women side, represented 

Linwood at Canterbury Rugby 

League meetings and took the 

under-14s to an undefeated 

finish in a Southern Zone 

tournament last year. 

She has also managed the 

premier men’s side since 2016 

and works full time for Land and 

Information New Zealand. 

Mrs Tuli stayed immersed 

herself with the Linwood club 

after the death of her husband 

Teni Tuli, known as the 

‘Godfather’, saying it was like 

a second home to her, and a 

second family.

that is all we do. It is in my 

blood,” she said. 

Teni died of a heart attack on 

a training field on June 2, 2015, 

just before his 300th game which 

he told his teammates would be 

his last. 

He played prop and second 

row, and debuted for the Keas in 

1994 and was part of the grand 

final-winning teams of 2005 and 

2008 and was named premier 

player of the year three times. 

THe first she knew about the 

nomination was when she got a 

phone call from NZRL telling 

her she had made the finals and 

to be in Auckland on Saturday. 

“I’m quite honoured to be 

nominated and I have no idea 

who has put my name forward 

but it is my everyday life you 

know,” she said. 

“To be recognised by New 

Zealand Rugby League is a big 

achievement so I must be doing 

something right.” 

She played for the Sydenham 

Swans before getting involved 

with the Keas. 

Mrs Tuli’s 14-year-old son, 

Uriah, now plays for in the 

under-16s. He is the captain of 

his side and plays loose forward. 

“He is following in his dad’s 

footsteps. He is a Kea through 

and through,” Mrs Tuli said. 

Other Canterbury finalists 

are: St Thomas’ and Hornby 

Panthers Caius Fa’atili, 16s 

player of the year, former St 

Thomas’ and Papanui Tiger 

Seth Tauamiti, 18s player of the 

year, Panthers’ volunteers Willy

volunteer of the year and Jason 

Wilson, referee of the year. 


THE TURF and One Good 

Horse in Parklands is doing its 

part for the environment by 

phasing out the use of plastic 

straws. 

“It’s 2018 and plastic straws are

Paper straws will be available

It will be phasing out the straws 

over the next few weeks. 

The reason behind the move 

is environmentally-based, claiming 

that 500 million single-use 

plastic straws are used daily by 

just the United States alone and 

that a lot of these will end up 

in landfills and eventually the 

ocean. 

City councillor and chair of 

the innovation and sustainability

Still Me By Jojo Moyes 

The third Lou Clark novel by Jojo Moyes, following the Number 

One international bestsellers Me Before You and After You Lou Clark 

arrives in New York ready to start a new life, confident that she 

can embrace this new adventure and keep her relationship with 

Ambulance Sam alive across several thousand miles. She is hurled 

into the world of the super-rich Gopniks: Leonard and his much 

younger second wife, Agnes, and a never-ending array of household 

staff and hangers-on. Lou is determined to get the most out of the 

experience and throws herself into her job and New York life within 

this privileged world. Before she knows what’s happening, Lou is 

mixing in New York high society, where she meets Joshua Ryan, a 

man who brings with him a whisper of her past. In Still Me, as Lou 

tries to keep the two sides of her world together, she finds herself 

carrying secrets - not all her own - that cause a catastrophic change 

in her circumstances. And when matters come to a head, she has to 

ask herself: Who is Louisa Clark? And how do you reconcile a heart 

that lives in two places? 

Fire and Fury By Michael Wolff 

With extraordinary access to the Trump White House, Michael Wolff tells the 

inside story of the most controversial presidency of our time. The first nine 

months of Donald Trump’s term were stormy, outrageous, and absolutely 

mesmerising. Now, thanks to his deep access to the West Wing, bestselling 

author Michael Wolff tells the fascinating story of how Trump launched a 

tenure as volatile and fiery as the man himself. In this explosive book, Wolff 

provides a wealth of new details about the chaos in the Oval Office. Among 

the revelations: - What President Trump’s staff really thinks of him - What 

inspired Trump to claim he was wire-tapped by President Obama - Why FBI 

director James Comey was really fired - Why chief strategist Steve Bannon 

and Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner couldn’t be in the same room - 

Who is really directing the Trump administration’s strategy in the wake of 

Bannon’s firing - What the secret to communicating with Trump is - What the 

Trump administration has in common with the movie The Producers. Never 

before has a presidency so divided the American people. Brilliantly reported 

and astoundingly fresh, Michael Wolff’s Fire and Fury shows us how and 

why Donald Trump has become the king of discord and disunion. 

Breaking Free By rachel Jeffs 

In this searing memoir of survival in the spirit of Stolen Innocence, the 

daughter of the self-proclaimed Prophet of the FLDS Church takes you 

deep inside the secretive, polygamist and fundamentalist Mormon cult 

run by her family and recounts her escape. Born into the Fundamentalist 

Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, Rachel Jeffs was raised in a 

strict patriarchal culture defined by subordinate sister wives and men they 

must obey. No one in this radical splinter sect of the Mormon Church was 

more powerful or terrifying than its leader Warren Jeffs--Rachel’s father. In 

2006 the FBI placed him on its Ten Most Wanted List. Rachel describes her 

harrowing life with Warren Jeffs, and the years of physical and emotional 

abuse she suffered. Sexually assaulted, compelled into an arranged 

polygamous marriage, locked away in ‘houses of hiding’, as punishment 

for perceived transgressions, and physically separated from her children, 

Rachel eventually found the courage to leave the church in 2015. A 

shocking and mesmerising memoir of faith, abuse, courage and freedom, 

this is an expose of religious extremism and a beacon of hope for anyone 

overcoming obstacles or trauma in their own lives.

Christchurch United 

Academy growing 

at rapid pace 

The Christchurch United Football 

Club and its high-performance academy 

continues to develop at a rapid pace. 

The arrival of high-profile Academy 

Director Colin Williamson is another major 

step in the development of the academy 

based at the world-class Christchurch 

Football Centre (CFC) on Yaldhurst Road. 

Williamson worked with some of the best 

coaches in the Netherlands during his seven 

years at professional clubs PSV Eindhoven 

and Roda JC. He will be working closely 

with the club’s Brazilian Head Coach 

Fernando Lambert in developing the other 

coaches at Christchurch United. 

This year the academy has expanded to 

include an U13, two U14 and an U15 squad. 

Christchurch United also offers preacademy 

programmes from U6 to U12 and 

will expand its community programmes 

for players from the age of 4 to 17, with 

additional pitches at Yaldhurst, as well as 

the historical base at Spreydon Domain. 

Players can join the community teams 

from $119 a season, and still get the 

benefit of the professional coaching staff 

supporting the volunteer coaches. 

The academy and CFC were created 

by Christchurch businessman Slava 

Meyn in 2014 to provide all-year football 

development with top quality coaching. 

The academy in 2016 merged with 

the Christchurch United and last year 

dominated many of the junior leagues. 

A staggering 36 players were being picked 

for representative teams.

Women set to make 

Kathmandu 

brings you 

New Zealand’s 

most iconic 

adventure 

race. 

#KMDC2C 

KBR1153/L 

Kathmandu 

Coast to Coast 

male domination 

changing 

HISTORICALLY THE Kathmandu Coast 

to Coast has been a male dominated race, 

but that is definitely changing. 

The event is full for the first time in a 

decade, with organisers and title sponsor 

Kathmandu challenging more females to 

take it on, a rallying call that is gaining 

some real momentum and having an 

impact on the event in a number of ways. 

Jess De Bont is a working mum who 

has competed in the event and now 

throws her energy into running a youth 

programme, training a new generation of 

multi-sport athletes. 

“It’s wonderful to see so many females 

stepping up and being involved in 

Coast to Coast whether it be in a team, 

tandem, support crew role or some other 

way of getting behind the event,” 

she said. 

Ms De Bont established the Coast 

to Coast Rangers, a programme for 

disadvantaged youth in Canterbury 

She is one of a growing number of 

women who are making their mark on 

the event in different ways. 

“Our programme is about making the 

event accessible to teenagers who would 

not have had the opportunity otherwise,” 

she said. 

“The Kathmandu Coast to Coast is 

accessible, achievable and fun, and there’s 

a real social element to training and 

getting into the outdoors. Kathmandu are 

all about making the outdoors accessible 

to everyone and the race is the same so it’s 

a great fit.” 

Ms De Bont says for her east 

Christchurch teenagers it has been 

about getting outside and exploring the 

wonderful backyard that Christchurch 

and Canterbury offers, just as much as it 

has been about training. 

“They have biked, run and kayaked over 

places they never knew existed. Exposing 

them to the great outdoors has been an 

absolute privilege. They embrace each 

week in the Port Hills with enthusiasm 

and gratitude,” said Ms De Bont. 

This is the third year the Coast to Coast 

Rangers have competed in the event with 

16-year-old Emmy Slott, competing in the 

TRAINING: Jess De Bont training with Finn Pierce as part of her Coast to Coast 

Rangers group for youths in Canterbury. 

kayak leg. 

Emmy has two fellow Linwood College 

team mates competing with her in a twoday, 

three person team, with the other 

two doing the cycling and running legs, 

making the challenge of completing the 

243km journey across the South Island 

very do-able. 

“They will be supported by their friend, 

Aleisha, who is keen to see the event from 

a support crew role and then compete in 

years to come,” said Ms De Bont. 

“Emmy has been training hard these 

past few months, getting up at 6am for 

kayak training more than once a week has 

been a challenge in itself. 

“For me, it is all about giving these east 

Christchurch teenagers opportunities 

they perhaps wouldn’t normally have and 

taking them to places they haven’t been, 

encouraging them to step outside their 

comfort zones, which they do on a regular 

basis. Some people don’t step outside their 

comfort zones all year. Our teenagers do it 

each week when I ask them to participate 

in various activities, challenges and races. 

It is inspiring to see.” 

“As a working mum and an athlete 

myself, I know all that the multi-tasking 

busy mums have to do. Trying to fit 

in kids activities, nutritional cooking, 

training and working is a juggling act in 

itself, but it is a very special thing to be 

able to compete and have your children 

waiting and cheering so proudly as their 

mum crosses the finish line, smiles all 

round,” said Ms De Bont. 

Kathmandu Coast to Coast full 

– women’s race shaping up for 

titanic battle 

A LEAVE NO TRACE EVENT 

0 

More women competing is highlighted 

even further with the women’s World 

Championship Longest Day event shaping 

up as one to watch this year. 

The late entry of two-time champion 

and three-time adventure racing world 

champion, Sophie Hart, has added some 

real spice to an already deep field for the 

women’s one-day race. The 34-year-old 

Lyttelton GP is a two-time winner of the 

women’s one-day event with her last win 

coming in 2013. Her first win in 2011 in a 

time of 12hr 10min was only 1min 

outside the women’s individual record 

set by Christchurch’s Andrea Murray in 

1997.

The women’s field is the strongest in 

years, led by defending champion and 

four-time winner Elina Ussher; last year’s 

runner-up, South African Robyn Owen, 

who was leading the race into the final 

bike leg before being overhauled by Ussher; 

Christchurch-based German Simone 

Maier, who last raced in the event in 2015 

when she was second; and Whakatane’s 

Corrine O’Donnell, a strong runner who 

always makes her presence felt. 

Former world champion kayaker and 

Olympian Teneal Hatton is another one 

to watch in the women’s one-day event. 

Hatton was third in November’s ICF 

ocean ski world champs in Hong Kong, 

racing as the event’s defending world 

champion. 

Leading Australian multi-sport athlete 

Alex Hunt and New Zealander Bobby 

Dean loom as men’s defending World 

Championship Longest Day champion 

Sam Clark’s biggest challenges. Clark 

stormed home last year to pass Braden 

Currie on the final bike leg and claim 

back-to-back wins in the World Championship 

longest day event. 

Dean has raced for top adventure racing 

team Team Bivouac inov-8 and was 11th 

in the 2016 Kathmandu Coast to Coast 

and fourth last year while Hunt is back for 

his third crack at his favourite event and is 

aiming to repeat his 2016 podium effort. 

Politicians proud of New Brighton 

finish 

Christchurch East MP Poto Williams 

will join Coastal-Burwood Ward city 

councillor Glenn Livingstone, who is 

competing in the two-day individual 

event, on the run and final bike ride. The 

pair have been training together and both 

politicians are proud of the fact the event 

finishes in New Brighton. 

“One of the reasons I am competing in 

the Kathmandu Coast to Coast is because 

it ends in New Brighton at the pier,” Ms 

Williams said. “I have done most of my 

training in the eastern suburbs and New 

Brighton is the heart of outdoor activity 

in Christchurch.” 

Cr Livingstone said the city council sees 

the real benefits of what the event means 

for Christchurch, New Brighton and the 

Canterbury region. 

“It not only brings competitors and 

their support crews into the city from 

throughout New Zealand and overseas 

but shows off the amazing terrain and 

scenery of our region as well,” said Cr 

Livingstone. 

ATHLETE: Previous 

Coast to Coast 

champion and 

three-time adventure 

racing world champion, 

Sophie Hart (above), 

is a late entry in the 

event. Christchurch East 

MP Poto Williams and 

Coastal-Burwood Ward 

city councillor Glenn 

Livingstone are proud 

to compete in the event 

which finishes at New 

Brighton.

Pellet fuel and so much more 

at handy hardware store 

While we have enjoyed a mainly sizzling 

hot summer, we know that all too soon 

the temperatures will drop and we will 

be needing to heat rather than cool our 

homes. 

Residents of New Brighton and 

surrounding areas, who have pellet fires, 

will be pleased to learn that Azwood pellet 

fuel will be available from March 1 at 

Home & Castle Hardware And Stuff. 

Owner Dennis Shrimpton wasn’t able 

to stock the fuel last year due to lack of 

available space, but he is happy to advise 

customers he has now created an in-store 

storage area for the pellet fuel. 

This fuel is the industry standard for all 

pellet fires, and the 15kg bags are easy to 

handle, Dennis says. 

As the name suggests, the store stocks 

a huge selection of products including 

hardware, plants, tools, paints, power and 

hand tools – and everything else you need 

for projects around the home. 

In addition, you’ll find an extensive 

fishing section, key cutting, leather and 

sterling silver giftware, games, toys, 

homewares and small appliances. 

Home & Castle Hardware And Stuff is 

located in Beresford Street, New Brighton, 

opposite Super Liquor – look for the 

yellow and black shop signs. 

There is a five-minute loading zone 

right outside the store for your parking 

and browsing convenience.

1 in 2 people 

deficient in B12 

Emerging research has shown as many as 50% of older adults and 

as many as 25% of younger adults are deficient in vitamin B12. 

Scientists at Rush University Medical 

Center found those most deficient 

in vitamin B12 to have the smallest 

brain mass & the lowest scores on 

tests measuring short-term memory, 

concentration & brain performance. 

Another study showed that older people 

with higher levels of B12 in their blood 

have bigger, healthier brains & score higher 

on cognitive tests than those with lower 

levels. Yet another recent landmark study 

showed that B12 supplementation slows 

the accelerated rate of brain shrinkage 

& declining cognitive function. B12 is 

essential for energy production, cell 

health, regulation of mood & sleep cycles, 

nerve health & repair, & prevention of 

homocysteine a serious cardiovascular 

risk factor that is known to cause damage 

& plaque in the blood vessels. It can also 

increase the chances of a stroke. Harvard 

researchers found 

a 34% decrease 

risk of vision 

loss in a study 

of participants 

aged 40+ who 

supplemented 

with B12. Another 

study 

linked a higher risk of hearing loss in 

subjects in their 60’s who were low in B12. 

The reason so many people lack B12 

appears to be our body’s ability to absorb 

it declining with age as the digestive 

system becomes less efficient. Anti-reflux 

medication & other drugs further reduce 

B12 absorption. The good news is B12 in 

the form of Methylcobalamin sublingual 

tablets that are dissolved in the mouth & 

thru bypassing the digestive tract have 

been shown to effectively raise B12 levels in 

the body.

Advisers at Marshall’s Health & Natural 

Therapy, 110 Seaview Road, New

Dilo Oil – The Remarkable 

Skin Rejuvenator 

Until Rachel 

Hunter’s popular 

TV series “TOUR 

OF BEAUTY” Dilo 

Oil was relatively 

unknown, being one 

of the best-kept secrets 

of the Pacific Islands. It 

may however be the number 

one natural beauty oil available 

as it possesses powerful natural skin 

regeneration and healing properties. 

According to ethnobotanist Chris 

Kilham, Dilo (pronounced dee-lo) 

Oil is a powerful skin regenerator as 

it is one of the most effective agents 

in promoting the regeneration and 

formation of new tissue, thereby 

accelerating wound healing and 

the growth of healthy skin. Dilo 

Oil is super-absorbing and can 

penetrate all three layers of the 

skin, offering exceptional cell 

hydration and regeneration. 

As well as this, Dilo Oil has 

potent anti-inflammatory, 

antimicrobial, antifungal and 

antioxidant properties. 

Traditionally, Dilo Oil is used to keep the 

skin young and youthful and for just about 

any skin complaint. Some of the conditions 

for which it is considered helpful include 

abrasions, cuts and cracks, acne and 

acne scars, pimples, blemishes, stretch 

marks, wrinkles, blisters, burns (including 

chemical and radiation), diabetic sores, 

rashes, shaving irritation, dry or scaly skin, 

eczema, psoriasis, 

dermatitis, herpes 

sores (cold-sores), 

insect bites and 

stings, rheumatism, 

pain, sciatica, 

shingles, sunburn, 

rosacea, athlete’s foot, skin 

eruptions, warts, skin ulcers 

and sores, nappy rash and almost 

any other skin ailment and often with 

incredible results. 

Many beauty and skincare products 

on the market today contain unnatural 

ingredients that can be toxic and may 

even contribute to disease. Generally 

the benefits are exaggerated 

and often only temporary or 

camouflage. Marshall’s Dilo Oil is 

100% pure and certified organic. 

It has been cold-pressed from the 

Dilo nut and contains absolutely 

no additives. Polynesians and 

Southeast Asians have revered 

Dilo Oil for centuries believing it 

to be a sacred gift of nature and 

the Gods. Dilo oil stimulates 

and supports the skins natural 

healing process through the growth of new 

healthy skin tissue. I personally believe 

it is a remarkable product and highly 

recommend it to everyone. A 50ml bottle is 

$19.90 and 100ml only $29.90. 

Further information is available from 

the Natural Health Advisers at Marshall’s 

Health & Natural Therapy in New 

Brighton. We are always Happy to help! 

NATURAL HEALING & BEAUTY OIL 

As seen on Rachel Hunter’s Tour of Beauty 

Revered for centuries by Polynesians & Southeast Asians for its remarkable 

skin anti-aging & healing properties, Dilo oil comes from the nut of the sacred 

Dilo tree, “the tree of a thousand virtues”. Dilo oil is often called the beauty oil 

as it can penetrate all three layers of the skin offering exceptional cell hydration 

& regeneration. It has a unique ability to stimulate the growth of healthy skin 

cells & this gives it powerful anti-aging & healing properties that can help 

reduce lines, blemishes, scars & damage to the skin. It also possesses 

anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antifungal & antioxidant properties. 

Dilo Oil Supports 

• Anti-aging & skin regeneration, helps reduce lines, blemishes, scars & 

stretch marks 

• Skin hydration 

• Skin repair & growth, helps feed the skin & stimulate healthy new cells 

• Wound healing & skin protection from bacteria, viruses & fungus 

• Most skin problems, rosacea, pimples, ulcers & sores, acne, psoriasis, 

eczema, dermatitis, rashes, blisters, skin eruptions, warts, insect bites & 

stings, athlete’s foot, burns, nappy rash etc. 

• Joint & muscular pain

Up to 1 in 2 people may have a shrinking brain due to a lack of vitamin B12. 

Supplementation of methylcobalamin B12 has been shown to reduce the rate of brain

homocysteine a serious cardiovascular risk factor that can also damage the hearing,

What’s happening 

at Lady Wigram 

Retirement Village? 

It’s been a busy few years for The 

Golden Healthcare Group with their latest 

development of Lady Wigram Retirement 

Village on Kittyhawk Road. The first villas 

were occupied in August 2015 and now 101 

villas are completed. 

In December, the club house opened 

which provides a bowling green, hair 

dressing salon, restaurant and bar, billiard 

room, movie theatre and library. The Club 

House has all the trimmings, including 16 

one and two bedrooms Apartments. The 

next stage will also include a swimming 

pool, gym and a further 14 Apartments. 

When speaking with one of their 

residents about how he feels about the new 

Club house, Mr Havill said “everyone is 

so excited about it opening, we have all 

been watching it very closely’. Mr Havill is 

fascinated as to how the fountain works. 

He has lived in the village for the past 

few years, enjoying his new life style and 

making friends. He has also picked up new 

hobbies including learning to play mahjong, 

“I love it, I had never played in my life”. Mr 

Havill owned his own home for 44 years 

and in that time he maintained the house, 

painted it, did this... did that. “We don’t 

have to do that anymore, this is my place for 

the moment. Every villa is different, even 

121 Skyhawk Road 

though they look the same. But you make it 

your own”. One thing Mr Havill likes at this 

age is “the gates shut at night, we can get in 

but no one else can and that is an additional 

sense of security for us”. 

Owner John Tooby says “our residents 

are very involved in the continuing 

development of the village, they share our 

pride in making this a great place to live. It’s 

a real community and it continues to grow”. 

ARE YOU READY 

TO DOWNSIZE? 

Paying rates for a house that’s 

too big? Paying maintenance and 

heating costs for space you don’t use? 

A move to one of our 

architecturally designed villas 

at McKenzie Lifestyle Village in 

Geraldine will cut those costs. 

Three villas are available for 

occupation now, priced from 

$355,000.

PEGASUS POST 

Hydrate to elevate 

We all know drinking water is important, but the 

majority of us simply don’t drink enough even though 

we know it makes us feel great when we do. We look 

at the benefits and motivate you to drink more with a 

few tips on how to make it just a little more palatable. 

With over a quarter of Kiwis consuming 

less than two glasses of water a day and only 

5% drinking more than the recommended 

eight, the message obviously hasn’t hit 

home on the importance of hydrating our 

body. 

A recent survey conducted by 

SodaStream found that Cantabrians are 

particularly guilty when it comes to their 

water intake. 

With 82% drinking less than six glasses 

of water a day, but with over 85% admitting 

they feel healthier when they drink more 

water, something needs to be done to 

bridge the gap in terms of what we know 

to be true and what we’re actually doing 

about it. 

This same survey revealed that although 

41% of us limit how many soft drinks we 

consume due to our concerns over sugar 

content, the same number of people said 

tea or coffee is this their number one drink 

of choice. 

Some people even believe that the water 

consumed in their cup of Joe constitutes 

part of their water intake. This is a fallacy. 

As caffeine actually dehydrates us, as 

does alcohol too, it means we need to 

drink even more water to compensate. 

Not so surprisingly the reason we don’t 

drink nearly enough water is that we 

simply forget. Now with apps you can 

download direct to your smart phone, 

there are no more excuses. 

Further studies proved that people who 

had a SodaStream machine in their homes 

were more likely to drink more water. 

In fact, the study showed that people 

drank 30% more water. 

For those of us who aren’t used 

to drinking water like it’s going 

out of fashion, there are plenty of ways 

to increase the fun factor while still 

being healthy. 

By simply turning tap water into 

sparkling water with a SodaStream 

machine and adding a splash of fresh 

lemon juice or naturally squeezed fruit 

juice, is bound to have a positive impact on 

our health and wellbeing.

deck bathed in sunshine - here you could 

dine al fresco. Perhaps coffee and a croissant 

for breakfast or a summer evenings meal. 

There is also another lovely outside area 

off the living room, complete with your 

own garden waterfall. The easy-care garden 

has room for you to grow some of your own 

vegetables and fruit, whilst not requiring 

many hours to maintain at all. 

The loft bedroom with its own bathroom 

is a delight - with panoramic views across 

Christchurch. Downstairs there are two 

good double bedrooms linked by a large 

bathroom. Both have external access to the 

garden. You may have a hard time deciding 

which is to be the master bedroom. 

Complemented by easy drive on access 

and a roomy double garage with a rumpus 

room as well this home is perfect for the 

busy lifestyle we all lead today. 

Quality, low maintenance and easy access 

are a winning formula - call now to view! 

Open Homes: Saturday 10 Feb 2:15pm -
