Rangi Ruru Girls’ School won the Canterbury secondary school touch championships at the weekend, continuing on
the good form they showed at the recent quadrangular tournament in which Bailey Chamberlain (above) crossed the
line. Rangi finished top of their pool with three solid wins. They faced Kaiapoi High School in the semi-final, winning
11-0, before encountering old foes St Margaret’s in another epic game which ended 4-2 to Rangi.

Independent
evaluation of
controversial
intersection
under way
• By Julia Evans
David
Cartwright
INDEPENDENT consultants
have been commissioned to
review a controversial Fendalton
intersection.
City council staff have reported
to the Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood
Community Board and said
consultants have
been appointed to
“provide an independent
review/
opinion” of the
Glandovey and
Idris Rd intersection
layout.
It comes
following a longstanding
bid from the Glandovey,
Idris and Straven Residents’ Association
to improve pedestrian and
cyclist safety at the intersection.
The city council has also commissioned
traffic modelling to
forecast effects that any changes
to the intersection and restrictions,
such as those proposed for
heavy vehicles, could have on the
wider network.
“Additional traffic counts have
been commissioned . . . along with
tube counts on the four arms of
the intersection. The tube counts
will measure volumes, speeds and
classification of the vehicles, types
and size,” the report said.

RESIDENTS CAMPAIGNING over the
Glandovey/Idris Rd intersection have taken
another step forward (see page 1).
The city council has commissioned independent
consultants to review the layout
of the intersection which has been a sore point with people who
live near there for sometime.
If it wasn’t for the Glandovey, Idris and Straven Residents’
Association – and if I can take the liberty, coverage in Nor’West
News - I suspect little would have been done about the matter.
The group also has a very good individual within its ranks in
the form of James Wilding. With his legal background he has
the natural ability to think outside of the square and possibly,
more importantly, to read what lies between the lines.

Traffic safety idea mooted
• By Julia Evans
THE POWER to upgrade
intersections could soon go back
to community boards.
And city councillor Aaron
Keown said the news is a “great
development” for the Harewood,
Gardiners and Breens Rd intersection.
At the city
council’s draft
Long Term
Plan meeting
on Wednesday,
a motion was
moved by
Aaron Keown
Mayor Lianne
Dalziel to get
public submissions
on prioritising intersection
upgrades, which may include
providing community boards the
ability to approve them.
“There has been a lot of feedback
expressing community
concerns about the dangers presented
at a range of intersections
and the state of many streets and
footpaths. We want to hear from
the community about how they
would like to prioritise that work
so we can establish a prioritisation
framework,’’ she said.
Ms Dalziel specifically mentioned
the Harewood intersection
in relation to this project.
Cr Keown has been lobbying
to have the intersection upgraded
for more than two years.
It was the basis of his election
campaign but installing lights
was voted down by city councillors
in last year’s Annual Plan.
“It’ll be in the consultation
document of the draft Long
Term Plan . . . it’s a really good
update,” he said.
Cr Keown said the news comes
SAFETY: A crash (left) at the intersection of Harewood, Breens
and Gardiners Rd has reignited calls traffic lights be installed,
which may soon be decided by the community board.
following a crash involving a car
which was carrying a baby at the
intersection last week.
He said the crash highlighted
the “issue” at the intersection
and the Long Term Plan could
provide a potential “solution” as
the Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood
Community Board would
be able to approve upgrading the
intersection to lights.
“This time there was a baby in
this car and it was hit on the side
just over a metre from the baby.
The baby was not injured but less
than one second difference and
it could have been an extremely
tragic outcome.”
He said the crash shows the
city council’s duty of care in
regard to the safety of residents
at the intersection.
But Cr Keown said it was up to
the people to give the city council
feedback, otherwise nothing
would change.
“People just need to submit.
If they don’t submit and miss
this opportunity, it won’t come
around for another decade,” Cr
Keown said.
•The city council’s draft Long
Term Plan will go out for
consultation on the its website,
www.ccc.govt.nz, from
March 9.

evaluation
under way
•From page 1
Board chairman David
Cartwright said he was looking
forward to seeing the results of
the investigation and working towards
plan to address residents’
concerns.
“We don’t know what the
outcome will be but getting these
reports done is a step in the right
direction,” he said.
Mr Cartwright said the city
council was being “thorough” in
the reports, as it included looking
at addressing impacts change
could have on the wider area.
A camera will be installed
above the intersection to record
traffic “turning motion.”
The residents’ association
received a report, which showed
long, heavy vehicles could not
turn the corner without cutting
into other lanes, including cycle
lanes.
Spokesman James Wilding
said the group is pleased the city
council is reviewing the intersection.
But he wants to make sure
the city council is reviewing it

IDEAS ARE being sought for
the future use of two heritage
buildings in Belfast.
Individuals, groups and
organisations interested in using
or helping to fund the restoration
of Kapuatohe Cottage and
the former Belfast School master’s
house on Main North Rd
have until March 29 to submit
ideas to the city council.
The two buildings are on a list
of 17 city council heritage buildings
that sustained damage in
the 2010 and 2011 earthquakes
and are yet to be repaired.
Repairs to the cottage have
been estimated at $50,000
and the house would be about
$370,000. A city council report
said the figures are based on
preliminary investigation, not
engineering reports.
“Unfortunately, we don’t have
enough money right now to
repair all our heritage buildings
within the next few years, so
we need to prioritise how these
funds should be spent,’’ city
council acting head of parks
Brent Smith said.
The 19th-century colonial
schoolmaster’s house was built
in 1877 and was saved by public
appeal as one of few historic
buildings left in the area.
It has a Heritage New Zealand
category 2 status and high
historical and social significance
for its association with the development
of public schooling in
New Zealand.
It also provided a link from
Kaiapoi to Banks Peninsula for
Ngāi Tūāhuriri.
The interior of this building is
protected under the city council’s
District Plan.
The cottage, built in 1912 and
is linked the early settlement of
Belfast in particular the Kapuatohe
Hamlet subdivision.
The interior of this building is
also protected under the District
Plan.
“We want to hear from anyone
who is interested in helping us to

them to good use,’’ Mr Smith
said.

$11,000 to start forest planting
Local
News

In Brief
Fire rages, homes at risk
• By Julia Evans
A PORTION of Papanui Bush
is set to be reinstated more than
150 years after its last tree was
felled.
The city council has budgeted
$11,000 to begin the first stage of
the Papanui-Innes Community
Board’s plan to regenerate the
forest in Bridgestone Reserve and
an unused drainage reserve on
Langdons Rd.
A city council staff report said
planting would begin before the
end of June, which would make it
only the second native bush in the
city alongside Riccarton Bush.
Said the report: “Unlike Riccarton
Bush were the foresight
and vision of the Deans family
protected approximately 7ha of
this forest for future generations,
Papanui Bush was immediately
felled over a period of five to six
years.”
The bush once took up 36ha between
what is now Papanui High
School and Vagues Rd in 1850.
The report said there is a
“unique opportunity” to reflect
some of the city’s natural, cultural
and pioneering heritage
through planting totara and
other native trees and plants.
But the modern version will be
a lot smaller than it’s predecessor,
which is one of the first things
pioneers would have seen when
FOREST: Funding has been set aside for a project pushed by John Stringer (above) which will
see more than 1500 native plants and trees planted in Bridgestone Reserve in a bid to reinstate

Community board member
John Stringer has been lobbying
to get the project under way.
“This is essentially waste land
that can now be planted and bird
habitat developed to draw native
tui, bellbird and kereru back in to
Papanui,” he said
Two plantings of 1100m2 and
1000m2 at the north and south
ends of the reserve – that would
be about 1520 native trees, including
70 totara.
The planting would be done
by Papanui High School and Mr
Stringer said he plans to work
with local businesses, other
schools and organisations such
as churches to help with future
plantings.
“I will be working hard to see
if we can’t extend the idea to
restore Papanui Bush through a
phased series of community-led
plantings not only on this drainage
land but in other pockets that
might be appropriate over time,”
Mr Stringer said.

them to extend their lifespan.
Road layers need ‘curing’, or drying time.
If you don’t see us on site, don’t worry –
we’ll be back again soon.
The intersections will remain rougher
than usual until April or May, when the
final surface will be applied.

Raising profile of community board
Papanui-Innes
Community
Board deputy
chairwoman
Emma Norrish
writes about
what exactly
a community
board is and what it can do
for residents
I first stood for the
Papanui-Innes Community
Board in 2013 when I realised a
lot of people didn’t know what a
community board was, why they
existed, or what they did.
I wanted to change this lack
of awareness, and let people
know that there is a lot more to
community boards than just
approving no stopping markings,
tree removals and parking
restrictions.
Did you know that in the last
year the Papanui-Innes Community
Board has allocated just
over $400,000 in funding to all
sorts of different community
groups, as well as to young people
through our Positive Youth
Development Scheme?
Or that it has managed to get a
project for the re-establishment
of Papanui Bush off the ground?
Or that we are pushing to get a
virtual reality cycle teaching tool
into local schools to encourage
more children to use the nearby
cycleway?
One of the Papanui-Innes
Community Board goals for
this electoral term is to raise its
profile within the community.
The board now has a monthly
newsletter and a Facebook page,
and is continuing to network
with community groups, attend
local events, and it is now running
a public forum open to anyone
who is interested in talking
to us at the start of each of our
meetings.
Meetings are all open to the
public, the agenda is available
online, and I have also started
posting a video on my Facebook
page a few days before each
meeting giving a run-down of
what is coming up.
The board wants to be more
than just a group of people
sitting around a table making
decisions for you.
It wants to be making decisions
based upon what it has
heard from you – through
talking to you in person in the
community or at events, hearing
from you on the Facebook
page, reading your submission
to a council plan or proposal, or
even just through a good oldfashioned
phone call.
I encourage you to make your
views and your voice heard, as
this enable the board to help you
make this the best community
in Christchurch.
Be it a cracked footpath which
needs repairing, a small community
event which you want help
funding, a community facility
you think is missing from our
area, or some grand idea you
would like to see made a reality
– get in touch and let us know.

Readers respond to the
news that two Papanui
bus services are set to be
cut as part of Environment
Canterbury’s draft Long
Term Plan
Joy Scurr – I am really
disappointed to hear that buses
107 and 108 and going to be
cancelled. I am 82-years-old and
don’t have a car and rely on the
buses to get to Northlands Shopping
Centre to go shopping and
go to the bank. Our rates keep
going up but we are getting less
services for what we pay.
Karen Ravenwood – I am
emailing in regards to the possible
bus route cuts proposal. I live
in Casebrook and catch the 108
from Highsted Rd to Northlands
Shopping Centre. I then have to
catch the blue bus through to the
exchange. Before the earthquakes
I used to bus and the bus went
straight through to town. After
the earthquakes I started to take
my car into town where I work
full-time.
Once my work moved to another
location, I was encouraged
to take the bus again, but having
to change buses became quite
annoying as the journey home
was made longer as I had to wait
at least 25min for my connecting
bus from Northlands to Casebrook
on many occasions

Fire rages, homes at risk
This aside, it was cheaper to
bus than having to pay a lot for
parking.
I was surprised to read of the
cuts and while the bus at 7.19am
from Casebrook is not always
very full, it is the only bus that I
can catch without having to drive
to another stop, the closest being
Harewood Rd and leave my car
parked somewhere.
While I appreciate that there
are costing factors involved, I
would like to see the 108 bus
remain.
If the route had not been
changed to catching two buses
through to town, I feel it would
have still been a viable option.
If people are to be encouraged
to use the system, then chopping
routes is not going to help in
many areas.
Doug Soper – I read with
interest and alarm, of Environment
Canterbury’s proposed cuts
to the bus services in and out of
Northwood.
My son uses the 107 and the
108 primarily to get to and
from Burnside High School,
plus whenever he needs to get
across town for social and/or
other reasons, from our home in
Northwood.
If ECan follows through with
the cut to this essential service,
my son will have no other option
other than to take a cab, at considerable
cost to us.

Fire fears from neighbouring house
• By Julia Evans
THE NEIGHBOUR of a vacant

St Albans says she is “living a
nightmare” plagued by fears a
fire could spread to her home.
Innes Rd resident Jillian Lloyd
said the property next door has
been in state of “complete neglect”

following the February 22, 2011,
earthquake seven years ago.
She is “terrified” a fire could

the furniture in it and has had
squatters,” she said.
Ms Lloyd said the bid from
the Papanui-Innes Community
Board to find out how the city
council can work with owners of
vacant and abandoned properties
to clear and tidy the sites to stop
arson and vandalism attacks
couldn’t have come soon enough.
On Tuesday Ms Lloyd said she
heard people in the house yelling
and had to go out to tell them it
was private property.
“But it would just take one
person dropping a cigarette and
starting a fire, it would spread
over to us.”
The property still has power,
so Ms Lloyd is also worried
about rats chewing through
wires and causing a blaze.
She said her neighbours had
been wanting to sell their
property but were unable due to
the “eyesore” and “danger” next
door.
On Christmas Day she
returned home from a family
lunch to find a rotten tree that
had fallen from the property
leaning over her driveway and
onto her neighbour’s house.
“I called the Cranford St fire
brigade. They came and chopped
the tree up and threw it back over
the fence. They told me it was an
extreme fire risk,” she said.
Ms Lloyd said she called the
city council and reported the
incident on Tuesday.
But head of regulatory compliance
Tracey Weston said the
compliance team was unaware
of the incident.
However, she said the city
council is working with the
property owner to clear rubbish
from the site.
“It can be confirmed that all
the vegetation on the section was

green, wet and posed no immediate
risk of fire.”
City councillor Jamie Gough
lobbied for derelict properties
in the central city, dubbed the
“Dirty 30,” to be cleared or
repaired.
Cr Gough said if the model
used in the central city was
rolled out to the suburbs, it
would be “watered down.”
“But I think more work needs
to be done . . . the current tools
we have to clear these sites isn’t
working so I’m keen to explore
what it would look like,” he said.

Fire rages, homes at risk
Teacher lobbies
for crossing
sign upgrade
• By Julia Evans
A BISHOPDALE teacher is
lobbying to get safety concerns
addressed outside Cotswold
Primary School.
Sam Hall wrote a letter to
Harewood city councillor Aaron
Keown, which was tabled at the
Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood
Community Board meeting yesterday
regarding safety concerns
involving car speed on Cotswold
Ave.
He said some drivers don’t stop
for the crossing patrol.
“The number of cars that fly
through the crossing, I’m scared
that one of these days someone
is going to get killed and I would
hate to have not acted about this,”
he said.
Mr Hall said he is not asking for
flashing signs. But said the current
signage is “out of date” and
needs to be upgraded, in line with
schools in the area.
“There was recently an upgrade
of lights above the crossing, which
has made a bit of a difference.”
Mr Hall said drivers who go
through the crossing often don’t
notice the signs prior to it.
“The current signage is in the
old yellow, where most of the
city is now a bright highlighter
colour,” he said.

Tight schedule for Old Boys’ athlete
• By Andrew King
AFTER competing in the
Canterbury track and field
championships at the weekend,
Old Boys’ United Athletic Club’s
Tegan Duffy will have little time
to recover.
The 17-year-old is about to head
off to the New Zealand track and
field and then the Australian
junior championships – with
all three events in the space of a
month.
She has also just started
studying land and property
management at Lincoln
University, works part-time at the
Commodore Hotel, and trains six
times a week at the Christchurch
Boys’ High-based athletics club.
She won the under-20 long
jump at the Athletics Canterbury
track and field championships
with a distance of 5.64m in her
fifth jump. However, Duffy didn’t
compete in her other specialised
event, the 100m hurdles.
She is set to compete in both
events at the New Zealand track
and field championships from
March 9-11 in Hamilton before
flying to Sydney on March 12 for
the Australian junior athletics
championships from March 14-
18.
“So basically I have to get back,
repack and head off again,” she
said.
Tegan said she started
athletics as a hobby but now has
aspirations for bigger things.
“I am looking ahead to the
junior worlds and what I need to
do to qualify for that,” she said.
She has to pay her own way to
attend the championships, and
said it would cost about $2000 to
attend the Hamilton and Sydney
events.
“I have gone to the local
community board to ask for
funding and my nana Faye Kerr
has helped me fundraise with
my mum, Toni, and we have held
some quiz nights. Also, nana has
a few friends that have chipped
in,” she said.
For the past month, Tegan has
been training harder than
usual and has been pushing
herself to see what her body can
endure.
“There has been a lot of harder
running and pushing myself as
hard as possible. The weights are
heavier, all of that,” she said.
ATHLETE: Tegan Duffy, seen
here competing at last year’s
New Zealand track and field
championships, will be back
at the same event next month
looking for success in the long
jump and 100m hurdles.

Bates breaks more pool
records in school competition
• By Andrew King
CHRISTCHURCH Girls’ High’s
Hannah Bates has broken more
records in the pool.
The 17-year-old broke the
senior 50m backstroke and
breaststroke and the open girls
200m individual medley records
at the school’s swim competition
held on February 12.
Two of the records she broke
were her own after claiming them
from former Atlanta Olympian
and Kuala Lumpur Commonwealth
Games swimmer Lydia
Lipscombe who set records in the
200m medley with a time of 2min
27.90sec and 50m backstroke with
a time of 31.60sec in 1997.
Hannah swam the 50m backstroke
in 31.26sec beating her old
time of 31.42sec, a record she set
last year. It is the fastest time she
has ever posted in that event, she
said.
In the 200m individual medley,
she beat her old 2016 time of
2min 26.09sec by 2sec with the
new record standing at 2min
24.36sec.
She also beat Abbie Johnston’s
2013 senior 50m breaststroke
record of 34.32sec, the new record
is 34.19sec.
“I was ecstatic to break the
records as it was my last chance to
achieve these, due to the fact that
I am in my last year at Christchurch
Girls’ High School,” she said.
“I wanted to leave with my
name alongside as many school
swimming records as I could and
I would love to hold onto as many
as I can for as long as I can.”
In January, Hannah broke
three-time Olympian and Commonwealth
Games bronze medallist
Helen Lesslie’s (nee Norfolk)
long-standing Canterbury record
in the pool in the 200m individual
medley at the Swimming
Canterbury West Coast championships.
The Aquagym swimmer’s time
also broke the 17-year age group
record which was also previously
held by Lesslie.
Hannah swam the evening session
in a scorching 2min 17.29sec
shaving .06sec off Lesslie’s open
record of 2min 17.35sec which has
stood since 2000.
At the Canterbury West Coast
championships, Hannah also
competed in breaststroke, freestyle,
backstroke and butterfly
events and won seven gold and
one silver medal in total.
For the seventh year in a row,
the championships were held in

doesn’t have a 50m pool.
She said she will be looking
ahead to the New Zealand age
group championships in Auckland
in April.
“My next national swim meet is
the age groups, but my real focus
will be New Zealand open championships
during the first week in
July which will be the qualifying
meet for all 2018 New Zealand
swim teams,” she said.
“My short-term goal is to make
the New Zealand swim team to
compete at the Junior Pan Pacific

achieved three qualifying times

better during this meet.”

Medal haul and champion
school title for Rangi juniors
NOR’WEST NEWS
RANGI RURU Girls’ School
has taken away 16 medals at
the Canterbury junior rowing
regatta in successful outing over
the weekend.
At the Lake Hood regatta
over Saturday and Sunday, the
penultimate event before the
Maadi Cup in late March, the
Rangi Ruru crews were hugely
successful, winning 10 gold,
two silver and four bronze
medals.
The medal haul saw them
awarded the Sweep Oar champion
school, for collecting the
most points.
The majority of Canterbury
rowing schools attended the
regatta, as well as Otago Boys’
and Otago Girls’ High Schools,
St Kevin’s College and Waitaki
Boys’ High School.
Forty-seven of the 52 finals
were able to take place in
Ashburton before weather
deteriorated late on Sunday.
The next major regatta for
schools is the South Island
secondary school championships
at Lake Ruataniwha on March 3.
ONE-TWO: Rangi Ruru crews topped the podium in the girls
U18 coxed four.

NOR’WEST NEWS
Interpreters wanted:
a profession in great demand
Do you speak two or more languages fluently? Perhaps you are
already volunteering or working with your community. Would you
like to be trained and join a vibrant team of interpreters in the
Canterbury region? Then look no further!
At Interpreting New Zealand we train,
employ and provide professional community
interpreters in over 70 languages, 24/7, in a
variety of settings: medical, immigration,
legal, etc. An interpreter (oral translator)
removes the language barrier between two
people that do not share the same language.
When Farah Khosravi
arrived in NZ four years
ago, she was a fluent English
speaker as she was an
English teacher, university
lecturer as well as translator
in her home country, Iran.
Farah says: “In New
Zealand, I sometimes did
some interpreting for my
friends, later I started a
volunteering job with
women’s refuge where I got
to do some more serious but
still untrained interpreting.
I have always loved and enjoyed
interpreting and helping other people
communicate better but it wasn’t until I
started my training and later my actual
interpreting practice with Interpreting
New Zealand that I realised how difficult
and risky interpreting job can be. I had
no idea how absolutely
crucial the principals of
accuracy, impartiality and
confidentiality are to the
job of an interpreter and
that disregarding these
principals can even result
in irreversible damage.
I learned all that as well
as lots more through
Interpreting New Zealand’s
ongoing training and
professional development.

6 car garaging… will be a car enthusiasts dream!
9 Elmwood Drive, Prebbleton
Auction: Wednesday, 21st March 2018, 2pm
4 bedrooms | 2 bathrooms | 2 lounges | 2 Dining rooms | 6 Garages | Land area 1204m2 | Listing ID: HR4834
Situated amongst some of Prebbleton’s
finest properties, 9 Elmwood Drive, has
come to the market for the very first
time. This sprawling home is as unique
as it is special with 4 double bedrooms, 2
bathrooms, media room, office, formal
dining, formal living and massive garaging
on a 1204m2 section. Whilst decorative and
opulent in its design, the owners wanted
to create an authentic home where their
family could simply relax, enjoy and soak
in the peace and tranquillity of the land
and location. If you have ever considered
a property with large garaging you’ll know
that very rarely does such an opportunity
like this present itself. Whether you
are a motor enthusiast, a tradesman,
hobbyist, work from home, or just have
the requirement for expansive garaging,
this address is a must to inspect! Once this
property has been sold, there are no others
to replace it. With instructions to sell on or
before auction day, what are you prepared
to pay?
Auction date: Wednesday 21st March,
2pm at Russley Golf Club, 428 Memorial
Avenue.
