Sydenham<br />
Park to<br />
reopen in<br />
time for<br />
Golden<br />
Oldies event<br />
• By Bridget Rutherford<br />
THE REOPENING of Sydenham<br />
Park has been delayed for a fourth<br />
time due to wet weather.<br />
City council neighbourhood and<br />
sports parks operation manager Al<br />
Hardy said the renovations will now<br />
be completed by April 1 in time to<br />
host matches in the Christchurch<br />
Casino Golden Oldies Sports Celebration<br />
<strong>2018</strong>.<br />
“The grass is in its grow-in phase<br />
and we anticipate that the grounds<br />
could start to be utilised progressively<br />
from early April.”<br />
The work to install four cricket<br />
blocks and three sand carpet playing<br />
fields began in April last year.<br />
Originally it was meant to be finished<br />
by July. That was then delayed<br />
until October due to bad weather.<br />
The city council then pushed that<br />
out until February. The city council<br />
told <strong>Southern</strong> <strong>View</strong> it has now been<br />
delayed again until April.<br />
Mr Hardy said the delays had been<br />
directly attributed to wet or extreme<br />
weather conditions during winter.<br />
“In August last year we did plan to<br />
have the project completed in February,<br />
however, the wet weather in<br />
August and early September caused<br />
further delays to the commencement<br />
of the three month grow-in period<br />
for the turf.” •Turn to page 7<br />

Woolston Cut dredging starts<br />
Local<br />
News<br />
Now<br />
In Brief<br />
Fire rages, homes at risk<br />
• By Bridget Rutherford<br />
A PROJECT to dredge the<br />
Woolston Cut begins this week.<br />
City Care will do the work,<br />
which is taking place between<br />
the flood control gates at Connal<br />
St and Long St.<br />
The project is expected to be<br />
completed by June.<br />
Several small dams would be<br />
constructed in the waterway to<br />
allow the silt to be removed by a<br />
long reach excavator.<br />
It would then be loaded on<br />
trucks and taken away to be<br />
disposed.<br />
During the work, each section<br />
will be fenced off and there will<br />
be no access to the Heathcote<br />
River and walkways in the work<br />
area.<br />
The cut was built in the 1980s<br />
to prevent flooding in the lower<br />
Heathcote River area, and for<br />
other catchment-wide improvements,<br />
such as the upper Heathcote<br />
detention basins.<br />
Water from the Heathcote<br />
flows into the cut, which can<br />
then be opened during floods<br />
using the tidal barrage.<br />
The city council decided to<br />
dredge the cut so it continued to<br />
provide effective flood remediation.<br />
It is currently about 50 per<br />
cent full of silt and liquefaction.<br />
Originally the project was<br />
PROGRESS: The removal of silt from the Woolston Cut will begin this week.<br />
PHOTO: GILBERT WEALLEANS<br />
meant to start in October, but<br />
asbestos was found in the silt,<br />
which caused it to be delayed.<br />
Because of the contamination,<br />
it was expected to cost slightly<br />
more than the original $2.3 million<br />
budget.<br />
Contamination mitigation<br />
strategies have been developed to<br />
ensure contaminated silt will be<br />
removed and disposed of safely<br />
and at the right facility.<br />
However, the majority of the<br />
silt is not contaminated.<br />
The city council has also<br />
installed rubbish booms in the<br />
Heathcote and Avon rivers,<br />
which gather floating debris.<br />
It is then harvested by City<br />
Care and sent to landfill.<br />
Booms were previously<br />
deployed in this way but were<br />
removed following the earthquakes.<br />
BOY RACER RULES<br />
The hearing panel on proposed<br />
boy racer vehicle restrictions<br />
on Summit Rd is likely to be led<br />
by city councillor David East.<br />
The city council will meet on<br />
Thursday to approve the makeup<br />
of the panel. Deputy Mayor<br />
Andrew Turner, city councillor<br />
Tim Scandrett, and community<br />
board members Melanie Coker,<br />
Ross McFarlane, Darrell Latham<br />
and Christine Wilson have been<br />
put forward as panel members.<br />
The proposal would prohibit<br />
vehicles under 3500kg on Summit<br />
Rd, between Rapaki and Gebbies<br />
Pass Rds, and on Worsleys Rd<br />
from 10pm-5am, Thursday to<br />
Monday, and on public holidays.<br />
DYERS PASS RD MEETING<br />
A joint meeting between the<br />
Spreydon-Cashmere and Banks<br />
Peninsula community boards to<br />
discuss the proposed Dyers Pass<br />
Rd speed limit changes and no<br />
passing lines has been tentatively<br />
set for March 2. The city council<br />
is looking at introducing a flat<br />
speed limit of 60km/h from<br />
the Sign of the Takahe to the<br />
intersection of Governors Bay<br />
and Dyers Pass Rds. During the<br />
meeting, the boards will make<br />
a recommendation to the city<br />
council regarding the proposed<br />
changes.<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />
Dream job of keeping abreast of bugs<br />
BRIAN PATRICK loves bugs.<br />
The Woolston entomologist<br />
and ecologist won’t leave home<br />
without a jar in his pocket just in<br />
case he spots a rare specimen.<br />
Creepy crawlies aren’t<br />
everyone’s favourite thing,<br />
but Mr Patrick, who works for<br />
Wildlands Consultants, is in<br />
the middle of his dream job,<br />
collecting insects at the Botanic<br />
Gardens.<br />
Mr Patrick has been tasked<br />
by the city council’s parks conservation<br />
team with a summer<br />
survey of the small fauna living<br />
in the central city park, including<br />
butterflies, moths, cicadas,<br />
grasshoppers, weta, crickets,<br />
praying mantis, cockroaches,<br />
stick insects, beetles, dragonflies,<br />
bees and flies.<br />
He believes the survey is a trailblazer<br />
and shows that a botanic<br />
gardens is full of exciting wildlife.<br />
“This is a New Zealand first.<br />
Nobody has ever been brave<br />
enough to do this before. I’ve<br />
already found plenty of unusual<br />
species. The native brooms have<br />
been yielding a lot of surprises,<br />
especially interesting caterpillars.”<br />
The work, which he is carrying<br />
out during the day and at night,<br />
is mainly funded by Friends<br />
of the Christchurch Botanic<br />
Gardens.<br />
Visitors to the gardens have<br />
been fascinated to see him bashing<br />
bushes, walking around with<br />
a net, and crawling on his hands<br />
and knees on the ground.<br />
At night, usually between<br />
10pm and midnight, he uses a<br />
160 watt UV light and a white<br />
sheet to trap moths and butterflies<br />
and other nocturnal insects.<br />
After he finishes his survey<br />
in late summer he will present<br />
the gardens with a pinned and<br />
named collection of dried insects<br />
in entomological boxes.<br />
He will explain the significance<br />
of his findings including noting<br />
which are new, threatened or<br />
endangered species.<br />
Botanic Gardens curator John<br />
Clemens said the survey results<br />
will provide valuable information<br />
NATURE: If<br />
you are in<br />

Gardens keep<br />
an eye out for<br />
Woolston’s<br />
Brian Patrick<br />
who is<br />
surveying<br />
bugs.<br />
on plants the insects are associating<br />
with which will help guide<br />
future decisions.<br />
“By improving our plant collection<br />
we can also look after the<br />
insect life. We’re intrigued to see<br />
what Brian will come up with<br />
about the ecology of the gardens,”<br />
he said.<br />
Mr Patrick is an expert on the<br />
order lepidoptera, a large group<br />
of insects that includes moths<br />
and butterflies.<br />
He started collecting bugs as a<br />
10-year-old living in Invercargill<br />
and still has records of his first<br />
trip on <strong>January</strong> 1, 1970, when he<br />
began a database.<br />
Since then he has carried out<br />
about 3770 bug hunting trips.<br />
Why does he love insects so<br />
much?<br />
“I think I’m driven by patterns.<br />
I like the striking patterns on<br />
their wings, the distribution<br />
patterns, and patterns in the way<br />
they interact with the plants they<br />
feed on. I’m a mathematically<br />
trained person so that makes it<br />
really rewarding when you come<br />
to predictions based on your<br />
observations.”<br />

Denton group thankful for support<br />
• By Emily O’Connell<br />
A COUNTRY rugby club is<br />
getting behind its Hornby<br />
‘friends’ in a bid to stop the city<br />
council’s plan to build a $35.7<br />
million mega centre in Denton<br />
Park.<br />
Darfield rugby club president<br />
Scott McIlroy said it will do<br />
whatever is needed to help the<br />
Hornby Rugby Football Club.<br />
“If they’re trying to close<br />
Denton Park, we’ll definitely be<br />
in behind them to try and keep<br />
it going,” he said.<br />
The proposed facility has been<br />
highly controversial with sports<br />
clubs fearful of losing their<br />
home grounds.<br />
Mr McIlroy said he’s not sure<br />
what they can do to assist yet.<br />
“No, I don’t know what options<br />
are available but I’m sure<br />
we’ll look at anything that helps<br />
them tick along,” he said.<br />
Hornby club chairwoman Lyn<br />
Hucklebridge is grateful for the<br />
support and she hopes more<br />
clubs follow suit.<br />
Mrs Hucklebridge said the<br />
Save Denton Park group will<br />
discuss what Darfield could do<br />
and get back to them.<br />
“What we need is for everyone<br />
to be outspoken about the whole<br />
process,” she said.<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />
Taggers hit<br />
Halswell<br />
• By Emily O’Connell<br />
HALSWELL residents are<br />
concerned with the amount of<br />
graffiti which has appeared in<br />
their suburb.<br />
City council graffiti clean-up<br />
volunteer and Halswell Residents’<br />
Association treasurer Matt<br />
Shallcrass said State Highway 75<br />
in Halswell is a popular spot for<br />
vandalism.<br />
“I think it’s just people passing<br />
through the area,” he said.<br />
Mr Shallcrass has reported<br />
eight graffiti incidents in Halswell<br />
already this month.<br />
Which is a large increase compared<br />
to his one report in December<br />
and two in November.<br />
He uses the city council’s Snap,<br />
Send, Solve application to record<br />
the vandalism.<br />
The application works by identifying<br />
the location the photo is<br />
taken using the phone’s Global<br />
Positioning System data.<br />
It sends an email to the city<br />
council from your email address,<br />
including the incident type, notes,<br />
address of incident, photo and<br />
contact details.<br />
The report is then allocated to<br />
the city council.<br />
Mr Shallcrass doesn’t believe<br />
school holidays have anything to<br />
do with the rise in graffiti.<br />

•From page 1<br />
Mr Hardy said after wet<br />
weather the ground could<br />
quickly become waterlogged,<br />
even after two days of rain.<br />
“This means the heavy machinery<br />
required for trenching<br />
drainage and levelling the fields<br />
cannot be used until the ground<br />
has dried out over a period of<br />
time, sometimes weeks.”<br />
Sydenham Park will be one<br />
of many to host Christchurch<br />
Casino Golden Oldies Sports<br />
Celebration <strong>2018</strong> in early April.<br />
Mr Hardy said three cricket<br />
blocks will be available to host<br />
matches.<br />
He said there was a narrow<br />
window between winter and<br />
summer to do renovation<br />
works.<br />
“Christchurch turns its sports<br />
fields around, making them<br />
available for summer sport<br />
quicker than any other major<br />
metropolitan city. This year we<br />
have had to increase the amount<br />
of renovation activity as a result<br />
of the very wet winter,” Mr<br />
Hardy said.<br />
“Sydenham Park, when completed,<br />
will provide yearlong capacity<br />
to the local community.”<br />

AN ESTIMATED 7000 people<br />
flocked to New Brighton<br />
beach on Saturday for the<br />
SummerTimes Kite Day event.<br />
Run by the city council, the<br />
free event attracted families,<br />
kite-makers and enthusiasts who<br />
battled the 31 deg C heat.<br />
One of them was Julie Adam,<br />
also known as ‘The Kite Lady’,<br />
who lives in Christchurch but<br />
travels around New Zealand<br />
running kite-making workshops<br />
for children with her business<br />
Skylines and Bylines.<br />
Ms Adam liaised with some of<br />
the guest kite flyers who attended<br />
the popular Kite Day event.<br />
One of the guests at the<br />
event was Perrin Melchior, of<br />
Auckland, who uses the recycled<br />
skins of damaged kite surfing<br />
kites to make intricate 3D and<br />
box kites.<br />
Ms Adam says flying a kite is<br />
the best way to raise the spirits<br />
and is also a great social<br />
activity.<br />
“Whenever I fly a kite, people<br />
come and talk to me. It makes<br />
people smile and they’ll come<br />
over and tell me stories about<br />
kites they used to fly and ask to<br />
have a go. There’s a really nice<br />
community kind of feeling to it,”<br />
she said.<br />

Private hair colouring services at<br />
Elite Hair Cuts<br />
Have you ever thought about<br />
colouring your hair? No specific reason<br />
needed, but many people have all kinds<br />
of reason for colouring their hair.<br />
Greying, change, experimentation,<br />
fashion, illness, fun. No excuse is<br />
actually needed to colour your hair in<br />
the private colouring room at Elite Hair<br />
Cuts located on Barrington Street.<br />
Owner, Louise has been a stylist for<br />
decades and is an expert at cutting<br />
curly hair, short styles, youth cuts,<br />
women’s styles and senior cuts.<br />
“I love what I do. It is so<br />
wonderful to have a person<br />
walk into the salon and<br />
walk out several minutes<br />
later feeling great about<br />
themselves.” Louise<br />
adds.<br />
“I have had repeat<br />
customers for years<br />
and I value their<br />
loyalty. I enjoy people and<br />
appreciate when a new<br />
customer enters the salon. My goal is<br />
to make my customers experience so<br />
positive and rewarding that they want<br />
to return time and time again. Even<br />
recommending Elite Hair Cuts to their<br />
family and friends.”<br />
Over the past several months, a few<br />
clients made a request which Louise<br />
honoured when they wished for a<br />
completely private hair colouring room.<br />
“I wanted them to have a space where<br />
they could relax. A place that felt<br />
like home. A room they could<br />
sit back and enjoy a cup of<br />
tea or coffee. Put their feet<br />
up and read a book or just<br />
relax in, while they<br />
waited on their hair<br />
colour to complete.<br />
In most salons, the<br />
client is out in public<br />
for an extensive<br />
period of time. At<br />
Elite Hair Cuts you<br />
will enjoy a private<br />
room so you will feel comfortable and<br />
at ease. My clients have appreciated and<br />
enjoyed their private colouring room<br />
experience.”<br />

Conor lives the surfing dream SPORTS<br />
• By Sophie Cornish<br />
CONOR MCLENNAN is living<br />
every young surfers dream –<br />
hitting the school books in the<br />
morning and riding waves in the<br />
afternoon.<br />
The Raglan Surf Academy student<br />
recently won the under-18<br />
title at the national surfing championships<br />
in Gisborne.<br />
Originating from Waimairi<br />
Beach, Conor, 17, represented his<br />
home club, North Wai Boardriders,<br />
in the competition.<br />
He moved to Raglan in 2016<br />
to start at the academy. The programme<br />
is part of Raglan Area<br />
School and was set up in 1998.<br />
It allows students to complete<br />
NCEA while learning about<br />
surfing both in and out of the<br />
classroom.<br />
“We write reports about surfing,<br />
the safety of surfing and trying<br />
to get out to surf breaks, then<br />
every lunchtime we will finish up<br />
and go surfing. It’s a great life, I<br />
love it,” said Conor. The national<br />
final came down to a tight finish,<br />
TWISTS AND TURNS: Conor Mclennan competing at the Health 2000 national surfing<br />
championships where he won the under-18 title. PHOTO: CORY/NZ SURFING MAGAZINE<br />
which Conor said made time go<br />
by “very, very slowly.”<br />
“It was the best feeling ever, I<br />
don’t think words can describe<br />
how stoked I was to win that, I’ve<br />
been working so hard for it for<br />
the last year and it all paid off. It’s<br />
a really good way for me to start<br />
the year,” he said.<br />
His parents watched on from<br />
the beach. “It was a very cool feeling<br />
to win in front of my mum<br />
and dad . . . to win in front of<br />
them was probably the greatest<br />
feeling of it all,” he said.<br />
The former Christchurch<br />
Boys’ High School student won<br />
another national title in 2014 at<br />
the national scholastic secondary<br />
schools championship.<br />
He was also the under-17 Billabong<br />
grom series champion last<br />
year. Conor is already looking<br />
ahead to the future, hoping to<br />
secure himself a spot in the<br />
New Zealand under-18 junior<br />
worlds team, which he narrowing<br />
missed out on last year, making a<br />
reserve spot.<br />
“This year I’m going all out for<br />
it,” he said.<br />
After finishing year 13,<br />
Conor wants to work towards<br />
gaining sponsorship and competing<br />
in some qualifying series<br />
events.<br />
Wimbledon to the West Coast<br />
• By Gordon Findlater<br />
THREE YEARS ago Englishman<br />
Harry Weeds was representing<br />
his county on the lush grass<br />
courts of Wimbledon. At the<br />
weekend, he won the West Coast<br />
Open while sleeping in his car at<br />
a campground.<br />
“I spent the first night in my<br />
car but had to have the door<br />
open all night because it was<br />
stinking hot. I splashed out on<br />
Saturday night and stayed in a<br />
cabin,” said Weeds.<br />
Now a Woolston resident and<br />
Cashmere Tennis Club member,<br />
he dominated the cultured astroturf<br />
at the Grey United Tennis<br />
Club going unbeaten over two<br />
days of competition.<br />
The <strong>23</strong>-year-old decided to<br />
enter the tournament due to the<br />
holiday break in the Canterbury<br />
premier inter-club competition<br />
and to also explore the sights of<br />
Greymouth.<br />
Weeds went through the tournament<br />
relatively untested until<br />
his final match against Vaughan<br />
Kingi. Weeds found himself<br />
down a break in both sets of the<br />
match but rallied to win 7-6, 6-4.<br />
He also teamed up with Kingi<br />
to win the doubles title. Weeds<br />
was awarded $200 for winning<br />
the singles title and $75 for the<br />
doubles.<br />
“It was a successful trip. That<br />
covered all of my petrol, food<br />
and accommodation,” said<br />
Weeds. He celebrated his win by<br />
visiting the Monteith’s Brewing<br />
Co and spending some of his<br />
prize money on beer tasting and<br />
fries.<br />
“The Golden Lager was my<br />
favourite. It was a very refreshing<br />
drop after a gruelling two days<br />
TOURIST: Harry Weeds (right)<br />
played on Wimbledon’s court<br />
seven with friend Charlie<br />
Horn in 2015. On Sunday,<br />
Weeds won the West Coast<br />
Open in Greymouth.<br />
of battle on the West Coast,” said<br />
Weeds.<br />
In June, he moved to Christchurch<br />
from Norwich, England, for<br />
what he describes as a working<br />
adventure.<br />
Weeds has played on a number<br />
of courts at Wimbledon during<br />
his time in England. In 2014, he<br />
represented his county, Norfolk,<br />
in a match against the All England<br />
Lawn Tennis and Croquet<br />
Club.<br />
Retaining his West Coast titles<br />
in 2019 has already been added<br />
to his to-do list while in New<br />
Zealand. “I’ll definitely be back.<br />
Greymouth has given itself a special<br />
place in my heart.”<br />

Young golfer to learn from Ko<br />
Shoot-off goes<br />
to Brettkelly<br />
FORMER Christchurch Boys’ High<br />
golfer Dominic Brettkelly won the<br />
Canterbury stroke play in a sudden<br />
death shoot-off.<br />
He, along with Rangiora’s Kazuma<br />
Kobori, were tied on 212 after<br />
three rounds forcing a shoot-off<br />
which Brettkelly won on the second<br />
hole at the Waitikiri Golf Club on<br />
Sunday. He also won the best under-19<br />
score title.<br />
Burnside High’s Juliana Hung<br />
won the senior women’s title shooting<br />
75, 69 and 68 for a combined 212<br />
six shots ahead of Jeonghyun Lee.<br />
A Canterbury Golf spokeswoman<br />
said the full field of 96 players had<br />
great conditions over the weekend<br />
but also playing a course which was<br />
in excellent condition.<br />
“The field was strengthened with<br />
over 30 entries from outside the<br />
region, predominately due to the enhanced<br />
initiative formed with Otago<br />
and Southland Golf this year,” she<br />
said.<br />
Brettkelly was also the winner of<br />
the inaugural Ron Clement Memorial<br />
Trophy which was presented by<br />
Ron’s wife Rae and daughter Tracy.<br />
“Clements was heavily involved in<br />
the development of junior golf and<br />
so it is fitting that this year we now<br />
have the Ron Clements Memorial<br />
Trophy which is awarded for the<br />
best under-19 boys score,” she said.<br />
OPPORTUNITY: Amelia Garvey will learn from former<br />
world No 1 Lydia Ko in the United States.<br />
IT IS the dream start to the year for<br />
Christchurch golfer Amelia Garvey<br />
with an opportunity to learn from<br />
former world No 1 Lydia Ko in the<br />
United States.<br />
Garvey will travel with Auckland’s<br />
Rose Zheng to Scottsdale in<br />
Phoenix, Arizona and spend time<br />
with Ko, training and playing at<br />
one of the most exclusive golfing<br />
establishments in the world after<br />
being offered the scholarship by<br />
New Zealand Golf and Ko.<br />
The former Burnside High student<br />
is ranked No 1 in Canterbury<br />
and ninth in the New Zealand<br />
amateur rankings.<br />
The pair will be with Ko from<br />
Thursday to Saturday learning<br />
about the game they both want to<br />
pursue as a career.<br />
For Garvey, last year was a<br />
success. Her highlights included<br />
winning the New Zealand amateur<br />
stroke play championship and being<br />
the only New Zealand amateur<br />
to make the half-way cut in the<br />
LPGA Tour New Zealand Women’s<br />
Open.<br />
Those performances helped her<br />
secure a golf scholarship to the<br />
University of <strong>Southern</strong> California<br />
which she will start after her time<br />
with Ko.<br />
Ko, who signed to play with PXG<br />
clubs last year, said the motivation<br />
behind the scholarship is so she can<br />
give back to the game by inspiring<br />
the next generation of females to<br />
strive for the top to see what it<br />
takes to get there and help grow the<br />
Lydia Ko Rose Zheng<br />
number of New Zealanders competing<br />
with her on the LPGA Tour.<br />
Ko is excited at the opportunity<br />
to host Garvey and Zheng and<br />
proud to be able to provide support<br />
back to females in golf to show<br />
recognition of the support she<br />
received along her journey.<br />
“I received support from so many<br />
people as I grew up and I’m proud<br />
to be able to give something back,”<br />
Ko said.<br />
“I am really pleased to be able to<br />
work with New Zealand Golf and<br />
use the scholarship with the intention<br />
to help the next wave of young<br />
golfers rise and compete on the<br />
LPGA Tour.”<br />
Through the Lydia Ko Scholarship,<br />
both New Zealand Golf and<br />
Ko hope to attract more interest<br />
from the emerging talent within<br />
the women’s game.<br />
Last year the recipients of the<br />
scholarship were Alanna Campbell<br />
and Momoka Kobori, of Rangiora,<br />
who have both taken up scholarships<br />
to Iowa State University and<br />
Pepperdine University respectively.<br />

continuing education<br />
Lincoln Decision Day helps<br />
students choose future<br />
<strong>2018</strong> has come around quickly. Maybe<br />
school is fast becoming a memory, or perhaps<br />
you are looking for a new direction. If you<br />
are new to tertiary study, <strong>2018</strong> might even be<br />
fees free, giving you the perfect start to your<br />
academic study.<br />
On 25 <strong>January</strong> Lincoln University is holding<br />
its Decision Day event on campus, from 9am<br />
to 4pm. Experts will be available to answer<br />
your questions about what to study, help you<br />
enrol and discuss your options so that the<br />
decision about where to study becomes easier.<br />
Lincoln is gearing up for a big year, adding<br />
new majors to its popular Commerce degrees<br />
as well as new programmes, to make sure it is<br />
offering choice to students.<br />
Students are now able to include a<br />
transferable environmental management<br />
major into a commerce degree, ensuring<br />
they are ready to meet the environmental<br />
challenges they will face in the future.<br />
Or they can include Event Management,<br />
Parks and Outdoor Recreation, Tourism<br />
Management and Water Management,<br />
bringing new skills, perspectives and depth to<br />
their studies.<br />
There are also new separate majors in<br />
Supply Chain Management and Global<br />
Business in the Bachelor of Commerce as<br />
well as new programmes such as the Master<br />
of Professional Accounting (CPA) and the<br />
Bachelor of Commerce (Agriculture and<br />
Professional Accounting), both of which<br />
prepare students to qualify as a professional<br />
accountants.<br />
There is also the Master of Business<br />
in Finance, providing a perspective on<br />
finance in New Zealand and international<br />
contexts, with reference to sustainability,<br />
agribusiness, entrepreneurship, innovation<br />
and commercialisation<br />
Lincoln still has places in its on-campus<br />
student accommodation available, offering<br />
an opportunity to enjoy the whole range of<br />
student life.<br />
But this is only scratching the surface of<br />
what’s available. Come along to Decision<br />
Day and find out more. That’s an easy one<br />
to decide on.

MICHAEL Jackson fans will be moonwalking their way to<br />
theatres next month as the Michael Jackson HIStory Show<br />
makes it's return to New Zealand.<br />
Aer an approximate 5000+ performances in the past nine<br />
years across Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Hong Kong,<br />
Dubai, Indonesia, South Africa, Canada and the US, word of<br />
this show has spread amongst the MJ community, with the<br />
show being inundated with pleas to come back to the NZ<br />
stage. It was this persistent devotion of admirers that allowed<br />
producer John Van Grinsven to hear the requests loud and<br />
clear, ultimately leading to the Michael Jackson HIStory<br />
Show's return.<br />
e world-class production showcases all of Michael<br />
Jackson's greatest hits live on stage, complemented by the<br />
famous dance moves that fans all know, love and aspire to do.<br />
Star of the show, Dantanio, will be accompanied by a lively<br />
six-piece band, four groovy backup dancers and a<br />
phenomenal lighting team.<br />
e show features 40 different customised costumes,<br />
twenty of which are for the MJ character alone. Over 100<br />
hours have been dedicated to the lighting design, which<br />
makes use of 160+ moving lights and over 2000 lighting cues<br />
arranged to punctuate and enhance the musical elements of<br />
the show.<br />
Playing the role of Michael is Dantanio, a South African<br />
theatre performer and solo recording artist who has been<br />
studying and impersonating Jackson since the age of nine!<br />
e Michael Jackson HIStory Show takes place at the Isaac<br />
eatre Royal on Monday 19th February <strong>2018</strong>.<br />
Tickets are on sale now at Ticketek or visit<br />
