OVERFLOWING Bishopdale<br />
rubbish bins won’t be collected<br />
more frequently, nor will they<br />
have their size increased.<br />
An outcry from Sumner<br />
residents saw the bins along The<br />
Esplanade being cleared twice as<br />
often.<br />
But Leacroft St resident<br />
Graham Adams said he is “frustrated”<br />
the same isn’t happening<br />
in Bishopdale Park.<br />
Mr Adams has been calling for<br />
the city council to install larger<br />
bins or collect the bins more<br />
frequently at the park across from<br />
his house with no success.<br />
“We all pay rates. It’s part of<br />
that.”<br />

from the reporter’s desk<br />
WE HEAR a lot about rubbish problems along popular beach<br />
spots.<br />
But on today’s front page we see it’s not only Sumner and<br />
New Brighton that are dealing with overflowing bins.<br />
Residents using a local suburban park in Bishopdale are<br />
fighting their own battle trying to get bins cleared so rubbish<br />
isn’t left to fly around in the strong nor-westerly wind.<br />
It’s been a hot summer so it is no wonder the parks are busy<br />
with families and, as a result, the bins are full.<br />
The city council does increase the amount of times bins are<br />
cleared at this time of year, but clearly it’s not quite doing the<br />
trick.<br />
Maybe it’s time for people to start taking their rubbish home<br />
with them?<br />

Potholes reason for ‘poor’ roads<br />
• By Julia Evans<br />
“THIS IS just totally<br />
unacceptable.”<br />
Those are the words of Papanui-Innes<br />
Community Board<br />
chairwoman Ali Jones, who said<br />
the amount of potholes across<br />
the two wards is too high.<br />
Ms Jones and the board are<br />
lobbying to get signs of the<br />
<strong>February</strong> 22, 2011, earthquake<br />
removed, saying it has now been<br />
seven years.<br />
“This is just<br />
another part<br />
of our recovery<br />
. . . not to<br />
be looking at<br />
this kind of<br />
thing every<br />
day,” she said.<br />
It comes<br />
Ali Jones<br />
as the board<br />
asked the<br />
city council for advice on what<br />
it can do in terms of dealing<br />
with abandoned and vacant<br />
properties, which are becoming<br />
“eyesores” and risks in terms of<br />
vandalism and arson.<br />
Mayor Lianne Dalziel supported<br />
the idea.<br />
“We need initial advice on<br />
what the current rules are and<br />
how they’re applied and whether<br />
there are any changes around<br />
the regulatory process we could<br />

Ms Jones said the roads went<br />
hand-in-hand with the abandoned<br />
properties.<br />
“We just want some emphasis<br />
and effort put in around our<br />
pavements and roads,” she said.<br />
Ms Jones said streets in St<br />
Albans around Rugby Park were<br />
particularly poor and were not<br />
planned for repair in the near<br />
future.<br />

“I think that’s pretty awful<br />
for people to have to be walking<br />
around, walking dogs and driving<br />
past on streets like that,” she<br />
said.<br />
Ms Jones said its about getting<br />
the “basics right” to move on<br />
from the earthquakes.<br />
“I know the pressure the council<br />
is under and the issues around<br />
standards of repair but this is just<br />
unacceptable,” she said.<br />

Veterinary practice<br />
Charity work<br />
For a while now, Steve and I have helped<br />
out charity organizations in Christchurch.<br />
We are involved with CPL, redzonecats and<br />
more recently the SPCA. We all really enjoy<br />
the involvement and working relationship<br />
we have with these organizations, ensuring<br />
that these animals get “Gold” Standard<br />
treatment and care in our hospital, just like<br />
any of our pets would receive.<br />
Megan and a tabby kitten in for desexing.<br />
What has amazed me is the total<br />
commitment , kindness and compassion<br />
the inspectors, fosterers, vets and carers we<br />
have dealt with have for these homeless,<br />
sick and often abused animals. Many of<br />
these people work voluntarily. It is not an<br />
easy job, physically or emotionally. They<br />
see a lot of things we shouldn’t have to<br />
be exposed to. They often transform<br />
their homes to cater for the fast growing<br />
number of cats to care for. They do the<br />
very best in terms of nutrition and pet care.<br />
They genuinely care and want to improve<br />
the life and health for this animal.<br />
Working with the CPL means we mainly<br />
desex, microchip and vaccinate kittens who<br />
are living with fosterers until they are ready<br />
to be put up for adoption. One of the best<br />
parts of our day is cuddling these kittens<br />
– all are so cute and huggable. Robyn<br />
who we liase with, has worked tirelessly<br />
and voluntarily for over 25 years for the<br />
CPL and is just one of the kindest most<br />
generous people I know. She makes a huge<br />
difference in the lives of those kittens and<br />
has a dedicated team of fosterers to help.<br />
CPL kittens awaiting their surgery.<br />
Redzonecats also do a remarkable job,<br />
a job no one else was prepared to do, in<br />
that they carefully monitor and trap stray<br />
cats in earthquake redzoned areas and<br />
endeavor to find their previous owners or<br />
socialize and rehome these cats to loving<br />
families. Many of these cats have been<br />
alone and “just surviving” since 2011 and<br />

so are difficult for us to handle without<br />
sedation. Initially we check these cats for<br />
FIV and FeLV ( Feline Aids or Feline leukemia<br />
Virus) and if they test negative we will often<br />
desex and vaccinate these cats, perform<br />
dentistry on mouths that require it, and<br />
groom or xray where appropriate. These<br />
cats are given a fantastic chance and we<br />
all treat them with respect, kindness and<br />
humility. We love helping out Jane and her<br />
cats. Another outstanding woman who<br />
genuinely cares about animals.<br />
Recently we have started working<br />
alongside the SPCA. This has been<br />
particularly rewarding diagnosing and<br />
treating these animals to the best of<br />
our ability and providing them with a<br />
level of kindness and care they often<br />
haven’t experienced before. The SPCA<br />
inspectors we deal with are a wonderful<br />
bunch of passionate, gentle people who<br />
are solely dedicated to helping improve<br />
the lives of the animals in their care. We<br />
examine sick and uplifted animals, provide<br />
diagnostics such as xrays, blood testing<br />
and ultrasounds where necessary and<br />
we provide intensive care monitoring if<br />
needed. Due to being open 7 days, the<br />
weekends can often be busy checking out<br />
SPCA patients and providing a treatment<br />
plan.<br />
We even see tortoises - here Kirsty is<br />
performing a hind leg amputation<br />
to save its life.<br />
Steve and I are very proud to be<br />
associated with the above organizations<br />
and we have met some fabulous people<br />
along the way, who all share our views<br />
that a pets’ life is just as important as our<br />
own, and these special furry friends of ours<br />
should be treated and cared for exactly<br />
the same. We are all headed in the same<br />
direction whereby we want to decrease<br />
animal abuse and abandonment by way of<br />
providing the correct education to people,<br />
care that is affordable and showing respect<br />
and kindness to everyone, regardless of<br />
where they come from. Everyone does<br />
deserve the love and companionship of<br />
owning a pet but it’s not a decision to be<br />
taken lightly and the correct advice and<br />
education from us as health professionals is<br />
vitally important for a successful outcome.<br />
Dr Michele McMaster<br />

Overflowing bins ‘frustrate’<br />
•From page 1<br />
Mr Adams said just<br />
like the Sumner beaches,<br />
the “elephant” park is<br />
used more frequently in<br />
summer and the bins are<br />
overflowing every week.<br />
Saturday and Sundays<br />
nights are the worst before<br />
the bin is cleared on Monday<br />
morning, Mr Adams<br />
said. He said the windy<br />
summer has meant litter<br />
has blown around the park.<br />
“When they clear it,<br />
they only pick up rubbish<br />
around the bin. It can go for<br />
miles if it’s really blowing.”<br />
City council operations<br />
manager neighbourhood<br />
and sports parks Al Hardy<br />
said the number of times<br />
the three bins at the park<br />
are cleared was increased<br />
to four times a week over<br />
summer.<br />
“A programme for regular<br />
visits is put in place. Where<br />
a call is received outside<br />
what is planned, contractors<br />
will then organise to<br />
empty the bins concerned.”<br />
But Mr Adams said that<br />
is not enough.<br />
He has contacted the city<br />
council on multiple occasions<br />
via telephone, email<br />
and its Snap Send Solve app<br />
CLEAN UP: Graham Adams took this photo of<br />
rubbish piling up at Bishopdale Park last week.<br />
to report overflowing bins<br />
in the park.<br />
Mr Hardy said the city<br />
council had received five<br />
complaints about overflowing<br />
bins in the last year.<br />
Mr Adams said it was<br />
not “rocket science” to see<br />
that the bins needed to be<br />
bigger. He said he spoke<br />
to someone from the city<br />
council parks team about<br />
the idea. “They assured<br />
me it would be done.” But<br />
Mr Hardy said there was<br />
no report of a request for<br />
larger bins. “Just reports of<br />
overflowing bins.”<br />
Signs for my petition to support the<br />
Christchurch Northern motorway<br />
extension from Belfast to Pegasus<br />

Last year, National committed to<br />
the next tranche of major roading<br />
projects to support the growth of<br />
our regions. These build on the<br />
success of projects like our Western<br />
Belfast Bypass. We know it is through<br />
integrated traffic solutions that we<br />
can move our motorists through<br />
our regions smoothly. We need a<br />
firm commitment from Government<br />
that these projects will go ahead as<br />
promised in Budget 2017 and that<br />
funding from the National Land<br />
Transport Fund is not diverted to rail<br />

He said the city council’s<br />
contractors would recommend<br />
if a larger bin was<br />
required, but had not in the<br />
case of Bishopdale.<br />
And he said each site is<br />
monitored individually<br />
according to its needs and<br />
the city council regularly<br />
reviews complaints and<br />
monitors the number of<br />
times bins are cleared.<br />

Study into Cranford St traffic<br />
• By Julia Evans<br />
THE IMPACT the $240 million<br />
Northern Corridor will have on<br />
Cranford and Sherbourne Sts is<br />
being investigated.<br />
THe city council has<br />
appointed an independent<br />
expert to manage the predicted<br />
downstream effect of an<br />
increase in<br />
traffic through<br />
St Albans and<br />
Edgeware into<br />
Bealey Ave<br />
as part of the<br />
major roading<br />

St will be extended<br />
to four<br />
lanes, which will narrow to two<br />
at McFaddens Rd.<br />
City council manager planning<br />
and delivery transport<br />
Lynette Ellis said as part of the<br />
Northern Arterial and Cranford<br />
St upgrade the city council has<br />
to undertake a Downstream Effects<br />
Management Plan.<br />
“This management plan is to<br />
ensure the downstream effects<br />
of the Northern Corridor and<br />
Cranford St upgrade are appropriately<br />
managed and assess<br />
the existence, nature and extent<br />
of increased traffic on streets<br />
adjoining Cranford St,” Ms Ellis<br />
said.<br />
A management plan was<br />
included as part of the resource<br />
consent for the Northern Corridor<br />
granted by the Environment<br />
Court.<br />
The city council has had to appoint<br />
an independent expert to<br />
assess how increased traffic will<br />
impact on the surrounding road<br />
network, Ms Ellis said.<br />
The city council has named<br />
transport consultant Shane<br />

Dr Turner has begun working<br />
on a report that will determine<br />
a series of possible measures<br />
which will mitigate those impacts.<br />
Ms Ellis said he was chosen<br />
for his expertise in the field and<br />
because he was not conflicted in<br />
terms of any previous involvement<br />
of the project or with<br />
competing projects in the area.<br />
“This work, informed by<br />
traffic modelling, will be crossreferenced<br />
to traffic counts and<br />
a monitoring regime,” Ms Ellis<br />
said.<br />
The city council will also<br />
begin engaging with “key stakeholders”<br />
and the local community<br />
to determine any potential<br />
solutions they would like to see<br />
in the management plan.<br />
“The city council will operate<br />
a monitoring regime to examine<br />
impacts post construction –<br />

put in place do work,” Ms Ellis<br />
said.<br />

Trust building<br />
relocated<br />
• By Sophie Cornish<br />
A NEW building for the Shirley<br />
Community Trust was relocated<br />
from St Albans to MacFarlane<br />
Park yesterday.<br />
The building, which has a large<br />
meeting room, two offices, a<br />
kitchen and toilets, was donated<br />
to the city by the Lions Clubs<br />
International Foundation following<br />
the <strong>February</strong> 22, 2011, earthquake.<br />
It was previously used as<br />
the St Albans Community Centre<br />
on Colombo St.<br />
There were some delays to the<br />
process as the city council initially<br />
estimated the cost to relocate<br />
the building would be $100,000.<br />
However, more detailed planning<br />
revealed it would cost $225,000.<br />
The initial $100,000 was approved<br />
through the city council’s<br />
Annual Plan. An additional<br />
$125,000 was fast tracked for the<br />
move.<br />
The trust has been mainly operating<br />
out of a small building at<br />
MacFarlane Park for 16 years.<br />
Trust manager Jane Mitchell<br />
said the new building is a “very<br />
exciting” prospect.<br />
“We will still be operating<br />
out of the smaller building, but<br />
now there will be room for other<br />
things to happen,” Mrs Mitchell<br />
said.<br />
SALLY MCPHERSON loves all<br />
things equine.<br />
Now the 17-year-old Rangi<br />
Ruru Girls’ School student has<br />
been named in the New Zealand<br />
Team for the American Quarter<br />
Horse Youth World Cup in<br />
Bryan, Texas.<br />
But don’t get it confused with<br />
rodeo.<br />
Think dressage with a western<br />
twist, that’s american quarter<br />
horse, Sally said.<br />
“It’s not rodeo. “It’s very precise<br />
and technical. But it’s also<br />
very colourful and sparkly unlike<br />
the more demure dressage,”<br />
she said.<br />
Sally said there’s a fair bit of<br />
bling involved in the outfits<br />
which are quite heavy from all<br />
the rhinestones.<br />
“Some jackets and tops can<br />
cost tens of thousands of dollars.<br />
Many are specially made for the<br />
competitor and the horses are<br />
also bedazzled,” she said.<br />
Sally and her team will head to<br />
the United States in June to compete<br />
for medals in cutting, reining,<br />
horsemanship, ranch riding,<br />
trail, western riding, hunt seat<br />
equitation, hunter under saddle<br />
and showmanship.<br />
She will have a horse provided<br />
by the organisers.<br />
She’s the only Christchurch<br />
member of the youth team and<br />
Sally said it’s the realisation of a<br />
goal she set herself many years<br />
ago.<br />
“I have been working towards<br />
this for a long time,” she said.<br />
“My aim is to learn as much<br />
as I can and be proud of my<br />
achievements. It’ll be the best experience<br />
and biggest opportunity<br />
yet, to meet others and compete<br />
on the international stage.”<br />
Sally grew up in a family who<br />

Intersection made safer<br />
• By Julia Evans<br />
SAFETY concerns at a Papanui<br />
intersection are being addressed<br />
with a new road layout.<br />
The intersection of Cranford<br />
and Fraser Sts has had two new<br />
traffic islands following fears of<br />
mishaps around Papanui Primary<br />
School.<br />
Papanui-Innes Community<br />
Board deputy chairwoman<br />
Emma Norrish said she has head<br />
concerns for safety of motorists<br />
and pedestrians from a number<br />
of locals when turning right off<br />
Fraser St onto Cranford St.<br />
The New Zealand<br />
Transport<br />
Agency was lobbied<br />
by the city<br />
council to install<br />
the new traffic<br />
islands, with<br />
work finishing<br />
Emma Norish<br />
on Friday.<br />
“The new traffic<br />
islands will<br />
make turning right out of Fraser<br />
St easier and safer by ensuring<br />
Cranford St Drivers don’t enter<br />
the right hand lane too soon or<br />
use the right turn lane as a short<br />
cut to Main North Rd,” a letter to<br />
residents from NZTA said.<br />
The islands will guide vehicles<br />
from Fraser St into the correct<br />
lane and ensure drivers on Cranford<br />
St don’t stray into the right<br />
lane.<br />
“This new layout should make<br />
this intersection easier and safer<br />
to use,” the letter said.<br />
SAFE: Two new traffic islands have been<br />
installed on Cranford St.<br />

Ms Norrish said traffic flow<br />
onto Fraser St had increased since<br />
work began on the Northern Corridor.<br />
“So I’m glad these concerns<br />
are being addressed,” she said.<br />

TARGET: 21 Francis Ave is abandoned and overgrown with<br />
vegetation.<br />

A week after Nor’West<br />
<strong>News</strong> reported the<br />
Papanui-Innes Community<br />
Board is targeting<br />
abandoned and vacant<br />
properties in the area<br />
that could be targeted<br />
by vandals, a reader<br />
responded reporting<br />
another property at 21<br />
Francis Ave in St Albans<br />
Christine Abbasi –There is<br />
a property in Francis Ave, the<br />
house numbers on either side of<br />
it are 19 and 25 so am unsure of<br />
its correct number. It appears<br />
to be on a single section. It<br />
is single-storey with garden<br />
vegetation now all over it. Last<br />
winter there was a derelict car<br />
parked beside it but that is now<br />
totally covered in vegetation<br />
too. It is sad as the rest of the<br />
houses in the street are well<br />
cared for. I look forward to<br />
hearing of the progress. Do<br />
these owners pay rates? If not<br />
the city council should be able<br />
to move them on.<br />

History group revived<br />
St Albans<br />
History Group<br />
chairman<br />
David Spear<br />
writes<br />
about the<br />
regeneration<br />
of the group<br />
following the earthquakes<br />
The St Albans History Group<br />
grew out of a bus trip around the<br />
suburb in 1998 organised by the<br />
late Muriel Soanes.<br />
She had been a leader in the<br />
movement to oppose the planned<br />
motorway through the area and<br />
had an extensive knowledge of<br />
the history of the suburb.<br />
Mrs Soanes lived in St Albans<br />
all her life and, in fact, at that<br />
time was living in the house in<br />
which she was born some 100<br />
years earlier.<br />
A number of those who enjoyed<br />
the bus trip and were interested<br />
in the history experience felt that<br />
there was a need to establish a<br />
history group in the area.<br />
A public meeting was called<br />
and from a considerable attendance,<br />
a small committee was<br />
formed and a group of interested<br />
members began meeting on a<br />
monthly basis.<br />
Initially these meetings were<br />
held in private homes, but once<br />
the St Albans Resource Centre<br />
at the former St Albans library<br />
came into being, we used this as<br />
a base.<br />
Of course members aged, they<br />
moved from the district and<br />
numbers declined.<br />
The earthquakes shook the<br />
life out of much of our work and<br />
regular meetings ceased.<br />
The remaining members kept<br />
in touch and did their best to not<br />
only record the history of the<br />
area, publish articles of general<br />
interest in the community news,<br />
and act as a point of reference for<br />
those wishing to preserve the history<br />
of the suburb.<br />
More recently, meetings have<br />
been revived and the group again<br />
meets monthly to discuss recent<br />
discoveries and share knowledge<br />
of the area.<br />
The book Swamp to Suburb<br />
TIME: The St Albans History Group meets monthly to share<br />
stories about the area.<br />
published in 1989 by the Federation<br />
of University Women<br />
provides a wealth of information<br />
and it has always been our aim<br />
to extend this information and<br />
record further topics not fully<br />
covered.<br />
Over the years topics researched<br />
have included notable<br />
identities, local natural features,<br />
prominent buildings and local<br />
industries.<strong>News</strong> sheets have been<br />
produced recording the information<br />
and they have provided the<br />
basis for articles in the community<br />
news.<br />
The group had hoped to<br />
obtain copies of photos of early<br />
St Albans but these have proved<br />
elusive. A collection of portraits<br />
of the mayors of the borough<br />
remains incomplete with two also<br />
eluding us.<br />
Archaeology is rather thin on,<br />
or rather under the ground, in St<br />
Albans. In general terms the area<br />
has been subjected to not much<br />
over 160 years of human activity.<br />
Unlike the United Kingdom,<br />

we don’t have layers of Stone<br />
Age, Iron Age, Roman, Medieval<br />
and Tudor occupation evident in<br />
excavations.<br />
However, the history of St Albans<br />
is rich in human affairs.<br />
The people who lived there and<br />
the many who still do, provide an<br />
insight into what was going on in<br />
our city.<br />
Recent natural disasters may<br />
have damaged and destroyed<br />
buildings and we may have lost<br />
forever the bricks and mortar but<br />
the history of St Albans remains<br />
intact. The history of the area is<br />
the story of the residents.<br />

Chairman of the Papanui<br />
Heritage Group Murray<br />
Williams writes about<br />
the establishment of the<br />
Papanui Primary School<br />
dental clinic<br />
The first official indicator of<br />
the sorry state of New Zealanders’<br />
dental health was revealed<br />
when a significant number of<br />
men were turned down for<br />
military service in World War 1<br />
because of the poor condition of<br />
their teeth.<br />
Eventually the Government<br />
realised that any improvement<br />
would have to start with better<br />
care of children’s teeth and in<br />
1921 a commitment was made to<br />
provide for Government funding<br />
of the training of young women<br />
as dental nurses who then were<br />
deemed competent to care for<br />
primary school children’s teeth<br />
The Papanui School clinic was<br />
opened in May 1930 and the services<br />
of the dental nurse were to<br />
be shared with Waimairi School.<br />
Parents were obviously keen<br />
to have their children’s dental<br />
needs attended to but were not<br />
impressed when it was revealed<br />
that they were expected to pay<br />
some of the expenses.<br />
In October 1933, the Papanui<br />
School committee determined<br />
that parents would be charged<br />
2/6 (25 cents) per child or five<br />
shillings (50 cents) per family as<br />
an annual levy.<br />
It was pointed out that this was<br />
still much cheaper that the cost<br />
of private dental care.<br />
Parents who could not afford<br />

dental<br />
clinic<br />
would<br />
have<br />
looked<br />
like.<br />
Murder house memories<br />
the school charge could apply<br />
to the school committee to have<br />
the fees waived but by 1935 even<br />
better-off parents were refusing<br />
to pay the charge.<br />
In 1934, the Waimairi County<br />
Council had offered to supply<br />
electric power to the clinic at no<br />
cost to the school, thus reducing<br />
running expenses.<br />
In August 1934, the Papanui<br />
school dental nurse offered an<br />
annual prize to the child with<br />
the cleanest teeth but even this<br />
inducement probably did little<br />
to change juvenile attitudes to<br />
attending the ‘murder house.’<br />
It was not unknown for pupils<br />
summoned for their turn in the<br />
chair to take an unscheduled but<br />
speedy trip home.<br />
Instruments were sterilised<br />
with boiling water. Wall posters<br />
exhorted children to clean their<br />
teeth regularly. The chair was<br />
wooden with little scope for adjustment<br />
for patient comfort.<br />
However, the most feared feature<br />
was the drill operated by the<br />
nurse via a foot-operated treadle,<br />
thus the speed of the procedure<br />
was a direct function of the<br />
energy applied.<br />
By the end of the day a weary<br />
nurse could have inadvertently<br />
slowed the drill to create an even<br />
more painful experience for the<br />
young patient undergoing preparation<br />
for a filling.<br />

Dance sport medals for teacher<br />
• By Andrew King<br />
ST MARGARET’S College<br />
dance teacher Stacy Goldsworthy<br />
helped a number of teams win<br />
medals at the New Zealand<br />
Masters Games in dance sport.<br />
The 36-year-old was involved<br />
with three teams that one gold,<br />
silver and bronze during the<br />
competition held on Waitangi<br />
weekend in Dunedin.<br />
She was one of 10 in a formation<br />
team who won gold, which<br />
requires the dancers to make as<br />
many different formations as they<br />
can in three-and-a-half minutes<br />
while facing the four sets of<br />
judges at all times.<br />
The team was made up of Molly<br />
Chapman, Rebecca Abrahams,<br />
Sarah-Jane Haywood, Kate Podmore,<br />
Sarah Van Hoof, Hayley<br />
Toso, Caroline Stevenson, Kay<br />
McDonald and Sue Gledhill.<br />
Goldsworthy then took part<br />
in a quartet, which also featured<br />
Rebecca Abraham, Sarah-Jane<br />
Haywood and Kate Podmore<br />
tap dancing, and was awarded a<br />
silver medal.<br />
“In my whole dancing career<br />
of about 33 years it was the most<br />
fun I have had on stage. For some<br />
DANCE STARS:<br />
(Left to right) –<br />
Stacy Goldsworthy,<br />
Rebecca<br />
Abrahams, Sarah-<br />
Jane Haywood<br />
and Kate Podmore<br />
placed second in<br />
the quartet.<br />
reason, it was such a highlight to<br />
dance with them,” she said.<br />
She also received a bronze<br />
medal for another formation routine<br />
with a separate team made<br />
up of Toso, Van Hoof, Chapman,<br />
McDonald and Stevenson.<br />
Goldsworthy got into dance<br />
when she was three-years-old,<br />
following in her mother tap<br />
dancing footsteps.<br />
Now she teaches dance at St<br />
Margaret’s but said her passion is<br />
about winning medals.<br />
“I just love it, I love performing<br />
and being on stage in a costume,<br />
and winning medals,” she said.<br />

ST ANDREW’S has the third<br />
best beach volleyball junior girls<br />
pair in the country.<br />
Marijke Hinton and Kate Allen<br />
took bronze in the division<br />
one competition of the New<br />
Zealand secondary school beach<br />
championships at Mt Maunganui.<br />
It was a tough competition for<br />
the year 11 students, who had to<br />
battle strong North Island teams<br />
and a king tide which washed the<br />
court away preventing play for<br />
about an hour on day one.<br />
THe pair made the quarterfinals<br />
and beat Bethlehem 2-1<br />
before losing in the semi-final to<br />
Auckland’s Long Bay College 1-2.<br />

most competitive indoors season<br />
I have seen in a while,” he said.<br />
Burnside High’s Libby Collett<br />
and Talitha Bootsma placed<br />
second in the division two girls<br />

he believes there is some really<br />
good competition between the<br />
Christchurch schools now.<br />
“Looking ahead to the indoor<br />
season I think our [Burnside’s]<br />

had good success in the past but<br />
the competition is looking very<br />

Horomaka. Walks and wanderings. Thinking about conservation<br />
and the sheer love and hard work of the locals who protect<br />
and manage the land and its beautiful birds.<br />
Our taonga. This exhibition feels like just the<br />
beginning, there is so much left to say.”<br />

Wildside Project<br />
The Wildside Project is a large scale collaboration<br />
of landowners, Christchurch City Council,<br />
Department of Conservation, Environment<br />
Canterbury, and BPCT for the protection of a<br />
variety of endemic, threatened, and iconic species<br />
such as the endemic white-flippered little blue<br />
penguin, the only titi (sooty shearwater) colony<br />
in Canterbury, and yellow-eyed penguin at their<br />
northern breeding range. jewelled gecko, spotted<br />
skink, the Banks Peninsula tree weta and Akaroa daisy (both<br />
found only on the Wildside). The Wildside covers <strong>13</strong>,500ha and<br />
focuses on habitat protection, with 25% of the Wildside held in<br />
private or public reserve, and predator control, with over 700<br />
predator traps controlling feral cats, ferrets, stoats, weasels,<br />
and possums used in this extensive trapping programme.<br />
The Tui Project<br />
The Banks Peninsula Tui Restoration group translocated a<br />
total of 72 tui from Maud Island, Marlborough Sounds to<br />
Hinewai Reserve, Banks Peninsula in 2009 and 2010. This<br />
NatureWatchNZ project has been set up to capture the many<br />
observations of tui contributed by people all over Banks<br />
Peninsula and Christchurch since the first release. The vast<br />
majority of observations in the project are made by a small<br />
team of volunteers, who have spent thousands of hours<br />
observing, recording and managing this information over the<br />
last nine years.<br />

Hi from the team at<br />
McGirr Motors<br />
It is almost a year since McGirr Motors<br />
moved to their new premises in Gloucester<br />
Street.<br />
As we approach our first anniversary<br />
trading from our new workshop at 332<br />
Gloucester St, we look back at what has<br />
been an exciting year for us.<br />
Owner, Gary Lake wishes to thank family<br />
and friends who helped in getting us off to<br />
such a good start. Relocating was a huge<br />
undertaking and we could not have done it<br />
without you all.<br />
Gary and right-hand man Yutaka are still<br />
on board. They have also employed two<br />
new mechanics – Terry, who has 30-plus<br />
years’ experience, and Jacob, their thirdyear<br />
apprentice.<br />
“Thank you to our customers (old and<br />
new) for your continued support, which<br />
has helped grow our business in this new<br />
location,” Gary says.<br />
“Now in our 18th year, our qualified and<br />
experienced mechanics still strive to give<br />
the professional and friendly service which<br />
McGirr Motors is known for.”<br />
The services provided include:<br />
• WOF<br />
• Servicing and Mechanical Repairs<br />
• Diagnostics<br />
• Batteries<br />
• Brakes<br />
• Clutch<br />
• Tyres etc.<br />
“If you have any concerns about your<br />
vehicle, please don’t hesitate to call or drop<br />
in,” Gary says. “We would be delighted to<br />
take care of your car maintenance.”<br />
In this summer of record temperatures,<br />
Gary recommends a vehicle check to test<br />
your air-conditioning and cooling system.<br />
To make your appointment, phone<br />
03 379 6698 or email gary@mcgirrmotors.<br />

business. It is very<br />

Reverse the signs of aging naturally with the<br />
newest LED Facial Device to New Zealand!<br />
As summer comes to a close, your skin,<br />
especially your face needs hydration and<br />
rejuvenation. Coming off the heat wave<br />
Christchurch has been experiencing, the<br />
elasticity in your skin will have shrivelled<br />
after being exposed to the drying, aging<br />
outdoor elements.<br />
Now there is a machine that is sweeping<br />
the globe and has landed in Christchurch.<br />
Experience the eleven beauty treatments<br />
accomplished within one facial mask. LED<br />
was invented by NASA as they were looking<br />
for a light source to be able to grow plants<br />
in space, from this they found that it had<br />
amazing skin cell rejuvenation & it wasn’t<br />
long before LED was used in hospitals<br />
around the world.<br />
People are experiencing the full facial<br />
rejuvenating experience with the LED light<br />
therapy with documented results in:<br />
Anti-Ageing – Wrinkles, Age spots,<br />
Scaring<br />
Anti-Acne – Antibacterial, Reduces<br />
inflammation<br />
Cell Rejuvenation - Eczema<br />
Reduce Redness – Rosacea, Sunburn<br />
Even Skin Tones – Hyper-Pigmentation<br />
Skin Booster – Collagen Rejuvenation<br />
Skin Soothing – Psoriasis<br />
Pain Blocker – Reduce swollen capillaries<br />
Charmaine McFarlane has established a<br />
new salon to accommodate her Aduro LED<br />
light therapy equipment for a business that<br />
runs parallel to her popular Sparklewhite<br />
teeth-whitening programme.<br />
Charmaine says the light therapy<br />
encourages new cells to regenerate.<br />
Depending on the particular skin condition<br />
the client wants to treat, he or she will don<br />
an Aduro LED face mask that emits light of<br />
a particular colour.<br />
“We cleanse, exfoliate, tone and apply a<br />
serum to the skin before putting the client<br />
under LED light,” Charmaine says.<br />
“The bonus is with this salon LED light<br />
therapy we can whiten your teeth at the<br />
same time as you are having your facial”,<br />
there is no other machine in the world that<br />
can do this!”<br />
