All-weather

one step 

closer for 

Northcote 

• By Sophie Cornish 

PLANS TO develop an allweather 

sporting facility in 

Northcote would see six sporting 

codes provided with up to 21 

indoor courts. 

A warehouse near the corner 

of Main North and Northcote Rds, 

currently tenanted by Toll Group, 

could be reconfigured and ready 

for use in two to three years. 

Developers Kris Inglis and 

Mike, Max and Glenn Percasky 

outlined their plans to the 

Papanui-Innes Community Board 

recently. 

Known as the Northcote Sports 

and Entertainment Terminus, 

it was granted resource consent 

in August 2015 and will have 12 

indoor courts for netball, futsal, 

basketball, tennis, badminton and 

volleyball. 

A gymnasium, cafe, child care 

centre, 450 car parks and other 

sports entertainment options such 

as 10-pin bowling, Laser Strike 

and Clip ’n Climb will also be 

included. 

The other sports entertainment 

options could be removed to 

expand the facility to 21 indoor 

courts.

Later date looms for fishing event 


THE ANNUAL Take a Kid 

Fishing event at the Groynes 

lakes may be saved. 

However, the October event 

could be pushed back into late 

November or December this 

year. 

There were fears the event 

could be cancelled due to 

rapid growth of the lagarosiphon 

weed. 

City council

manager Kay 

Holder has 

recommended 

two options 

involving 

David Denton 

chemical 

control to the 

Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood 

Community Board, to minimise 

the problem. 

“The reasons for the rapid 

growth are not well understood 

but the warm summer and high 

nutrient flow into the lakes 

could be the cause . . . at this 

stage it is proposed that further 

on-going chemical control of the 

lake weed will be the most effective 

method for management,” 

said Ms Holder. 

The work, costing $15,000, 

would go ahead this upcoming

fishing cannot take place for six 

weeks afterwards. 

Event organiser David Denton 

said the event can work with the 

new dates, if a commitment is 

made by city council to control 

the weed. 

The Take A Kid Fishing event 

has been held at the Groynes annually 

since 1988. 

About five to six thousand 

people attend it each year. 

Previously the Isaac Conservation 

and Wildlife Trust has 

donated 800 salmon which are 

released into the lake. 

Volunteers show the children 

how to catch a salmon, clean it 

and prepare it for cooking. 

It is unclear how effective the 

chemical control could be. 

“There will still be some 

uncertainly on the effectiveness 

of the control as it depends on 

unknown environmental conditions, 

if the weed regrows in

time for it to be controlled and 

chemical effectiveness,” said Ms 

Holder. 

The large quantity of weed 

means that if pulled out, it 

will regrow and potentially 

spread. 

“There are concerns that mechanical 

methods may produce 

loose stem that could move to 

other water bodies and spread 

the weed problem,” said Ms 

Holder.

This has been a happy family home for many years, but a change in circumstances creates an 

opportunity for another family to move in and enjoy this lovely property. The views are hard 

to beat, across the city to the mountains and sea beyond. The substantial home is configured 

to offer great flexibility for all sorts of households, with a semi self-contained area that could 

be fantastic for extended family. 

The main areas of the home are upstairs where living, dining and kitchen are open plan, all 

with aspects of the view. The living room opens through ranch sliders to a wooden deck that 

wraps around the house and also connects to the master bedroom. A large kitchen area with 

room for casual dining is a few steps up from the living spaces and connects to a private and 

sheltered outdoor area at the rear of the property. 

The master bedroom has an ensuite, and there are two other bedrooms upstairs along with 

the main bathroom facilities, which are separated into 3 rooms, making it a practical and 

convenient home for busy households. Downstairs a spacious entrance and stairway area 

opens into a double bedroom with adjoining living and kitchen area, which in turn connects 

to a large games room. These are all generous spaces with myriad uses. The whole downstairs 

area has it’s own large outdoor area where of course the views take centre stage. 

There is a double garage with easy drive on access and off street parking. The timeless design 

of the house offers the next owners potential to update without breaking the bank. Whatever 

the next owner plans it will be the views that capture the heart and spark the imagination.

Sport centre 

one step closer 

•From page 1 

Mr Inglis said the group started 

a conversation three years ago 

with local sporting and community 

groups. 

“There’s been a really positive 

response to it. A lot of sports are 

competing for court space at the 

moment.” 

Mr Inglis said the facility would 

be similar to the Edgar Centre in 

Dunedin. 

“You will find around the country, 

particularly in Wellington, 

Auckland and in Dunedin with 

the Edgar Centre, the participation 

and growth rates in the sport 

are far higher . . . in sports such 

as netball, futsal and basketball 

when you have indoor facilities.” 

Mr Inglis said the facility would 

“complement” the proposed 

Metro Sports Facility planned for 

the central city. 

“We see this as complementary 

to MSF, as a community-based 

sports centre. It’s also decentralised. 

We will have 450 car parks in 

the Papanui area, which I think it 

is a lot easier to manage than 400 

car parks in the centre of the city.” 

He believes even with the development 

nine indoor courts for 

MSF, there will still be “a shortfall 

in the capacity for indoor courts.” 

“Our understanding is that 

from netball alone, there is a need 

for 18-20 indoor courts.” 

AT 10-YEARS-OLD Finnian 

Chan-Allan ran 6km in the Star 

Media City2Surf. 

The Merivale resident started 

with a goal of raising $300 for 

the Canterbury Bowel and Liver 

Trust. 

Finnian said: “I thought it was 

a lot. I achieved this in a couple 

of days, so Mum suggested I try 

for $1000, 100 times my age – I 

was like, what?” 

But when he crossed the line, 

Finnian had raised $1568 for 

the trust. He said he was “really 

happy” with the total. 

“By doing this I have learnt 

that you can do things for charity, 

I feel proud that I raised all 

that money and I learnt that people 

were happy to help me raise 

money for charity. I am confident 

now in running 6km and I 

am more confident in speaking 

to people,” he said. 

Finnian has already decided 

next year he will do the 14km 

run and is hoping to inspire his 

whole classroom to join him. 

Last year Leanne Corby was 

sick when she entered the event, 

her husband walked with a 

wheelchair “just in case.” 

She’d had to put off her wedding 

three times because of a 

crippling illness. However, she 

married her partner of more 

than eight years, Craig Corby, 

in a wedding almost completely 

organised by the Canterbury 

Bowel and Liver Trust. 

This year Mrs Corby walked 

without a wheelchair and with 

a group of supporters. Between 

Mrs Corby and Finnian, they 

raised $8500.

WATER PUMP: An artist’s impression of the city council’s 

preferred design and location for the Jeffreys pump station. 

More feedback sought 

on Jeffreys pump station 

THE SECOND round of 

consultation has opened for the 

pump station suction tank in 

Jeffreys Reserve after residents 

were unhappy with previous 

designs. 

Feedback from the October 

2017 consultation resulted in 

a further investigation of eight 

potential location options, 

which were then independently 

peer reviewed. 

The $2.5 million project 

is required to replace the 

earthquake-damaged tank 

which supplies water to the 

north-west of Christchurch. 

City council has revealed 

it prefers option two, which 

includes the new tank next 

to the existing re-clad pump 

station. 

This may result in savings in 

energy use and pump upgrades 

because the pump station and 

suction tank would be in close 

proximity. Its visual effects 

may also be reduced as the 

height of the tank will be 4m 

above ground and 50cm below 

ground. 

The project is now expected to 

be completed in December next 

year instead of June, city council 

manager land drainage Keith 

Davison said. 

The plans were changed by 

the city council after neighbours 

of the reserve expressed concern 

with the concept designs. 

“Key concerns and 

suggestions from the have your 

say engagement carried out in 

September and October were 

the height of the tank and the 

affect on neighbours, security 

issues, visual impacts, use of 

existing site, consideration for 

other locations and lowering of 

tank height,” Mr Davison said. 

The consultation will close on 

May 14. 


CRIMEWATCH Christchurch 

now has $7000 more to carry 

out its patrols in the city’s 

north-west. 

The money has come from the 


Community Board’s discretionary 

response fund. 

North-west Crimewatch volunteers 

collectively contribute more 

than 7000 hours a year, receive 

no government funding and 

rely heavily on donations and 

sponsorship. Community board 

chairman Sam MacDonald said 

its work is “incredibly 

important.” The 

group’s 20 volunteers in the 

north-west aim to free up police 

resources, increase community 

awareness and resilience, and 

develop relationships with local 

government, schools, Civil 

Defence and emergency management 

agencies. 

The patrol runs seven days a 

week and covers more than 15 

suburbs from St Albans to Belfast 

and McLeans Island to Burnside. 

Said community board deputy 

chairman Aaron Campbell: “It’s 

fantastic we as a community 

board can help cover some of the 

expenses . . . the group 

works closely 

with police and 

help the city

council in a variety of ways, 

including reporting graffiti, 

patrolling urban parks and 

reserves, and assist the public at 

community events.” 

Community board members 

plan to ride along with the group 

to see how it operates. 

“I am hoping in the next 

couple of weeks we can get the 

chance to go out with them and 

see what’s happening at night 

in our communities,” said Mr 

MacDonald.

Get gardening in Bryndwr 

In this week’s 

soapbox, 

Bryndwr 

Community 

Garden 

secretary Kate 

Boardman 

talks about the 

garden’s need for more 

volunteers 

THE BRYNDWR Community 

Garden is based at Morley St Park 

and is run by a team of volunteers 

from the local community. 

Now in its sixth year, the 

garden is a great place to learn 

about gardening, get fresh 

vegetables and herbs, and meet 

up with friends and neighbours. 

Everyone is welcome to participate 

from the novice to the 

experienced gardener, from those 

who can ‘supervise’ to those who 

can dig, weed and water. 

Our working bees, held on 

Saturday mornings, provide a 

time to get your hands dirty as 

well as an opportunity to mingle, 

chat, share food, and build connections 

together to learn and be 

part of a community. 

Our raised beds near the 

playground contain a range of 

seasonal vegetables that are available 

for anyone to harvest. This 

year our tomatoes, bok choy and 

pak choi grew especially well. 

The community garden provides 

an opportunity for children 

and families to learn how to grow 

vegetables under the watchful eye 

of experienced gardeners. This 

can lead you to be bitten by the 

“gardening bug” and start your 

own garden. 

We want the Bryndwr Community 

Garden to continue to 

be a place which enhances community 

well-being and brings 

people together, as well as being a 

community focal point for events 

and activities, a place of learning 

HELP 

WANTED: 

More 

volunteers 

are needed at 

the Bryndwr 

Community 

Garden. 

and sharing skills and a garden 

that reflects sustainable and environmental 

values. 

While this sounds like a tall 

order, with our team of dedicated 

volunteers and links with the 

wider community, we do our 

best to achieve this – but we need 

your help. We are always looking 

for more people to be involved 

either through participating at 

the working bees, being on the 

watering roster, building raised 

beds, or being on our committee 

to guide and enable the running 

of the garden. 

•If you, your family or 

your friends are interested 

in being involved with the 

garden, come along on 

Saturday morning, 10amnoon, 

or email bryndwr.

THREE MAJOR Edgeware 

roads could have additional 

lanes added in a bid to manage 

increased traffic from the 

Northern Corridor. 

The city council has 

proposed an upgrade plan for 

Cranford St and the surrounding 

area to reduce traffic on 

smaller side streets coming off 

the motorway. 

Plans include adding third 

lanes on Forfar, Madras and 

Barbadoes Sts between Warrington 

St and Bealey Ave and a 

clearway on part of Cranford St 

from Innes Rd to Berwick St. 

“A clearway on part of Cranford 

St and three-laning sections 

of Madras/Forfar St and Barbadoes 

St would help to improve 

the traffic flow in the area and 

minimise short cuts through local 

streets,” a city council report 

said. 

The additional lanes and clearway 

would involve taking away 

on-street parking. 

“Investigations we have done 

show that local streets will be 

affected in the morning and 

evening peak periods if no road 

improvements are made. The 

Local 


Now 


Upgrade plan to manage 

Northern Corridor traffic 

impact will vary street by street 

but a number of streets will have 

a traffic increase of over 30 per 

cent,” the report said. 

The plan also includes upgrading 

the intersections at Cranford 

and Westminster Sts, Cranford 

and Berwick Sts, Forfar and 

Warrington Sts, Warrington and 

Barbadoes Sts, Madras St and 

Edgeware Rd, and Barbadoes St 

and Edgeware Rd. 

As well as upgrades to side 

streets, including improving 

safety by raising intersections, 

narrowing sections of the road, 

bends and landscaping, as well 

as installing mid-block raised 

platforms and turning restrictions. 

The city council is hosting 

drop-in sessions on May 7 at St 

Albans School from 4pm, May 

10 at English Park from 10am, 

May 16 at Paparoa Street School 

from 4pm and May 17 at the 

Edgeware Bowling Club from 

10am.

Nearly 800 

trees planted 

by community 

THE FIRST native-tree 

planting in Papanui Bush began 

on Friday in what Papanui- 

Innes Commuity Board 

member John Stringer called “a 

really historical moment.” 

The bush once took up 36-ha 

of land that is now Papanui 

High School and Vagues Rd in 

1850. 

During this time, most trees 

were felled over a period of five 

to six years. 

On Friday, about 100 people 

planted almost 800 trees, 

including totara, in the north 

and south end of Bridgestone 

Reserve on Langdons Rd. 

Mr Stringer said the day was 

“really successful.” 

Groups involved in the 

planting included Papanui 

High School, the Rotary Club 

of Papanui and members from 

the Northcity Church and the 

Papanui Baptist Church. 

The Papanui-Innes 

Community Board was also 

involved, including city 

councillors Pauline Cotter and 

Mike Davidson. 

Mr Stringer said there 

has been even more interest 

from local businesses and 

community groups for the next 

planting, which will take place 

in June. 

Petition to change schools’ zones 


“HAVEN’T OUR kids lost 

enough to the quake already?” 

That’s the message on signs 

displayed in Richmond and 

Shirley, calling for Avonside 

Girls’ and Shirley Boys’ High 

School to include the suburbs in 

its new home enrolment zone. 

Residents of the suburbs 

have delivered 3000 leaflets to 

surrounding areas and gathered 

more than 1300 signatures on 

a petition, calling for people to 

submit feedback to the schools 

and the Ministry of Education. 

The two schools will relocate 

to the new shared campus at QE 

II Park next year and have been 

required to develop a new zone 

by the secretary of education. 

The board of trustees from 

both schools opened a consultation 

document online at the 

end of March, which closed on 

Thursday. 

The document included a ‘draft 

zone’ which featured suburbs 

Burwood, Parklands, New 

Brighton, South Brighton and 

Southshore, which is supported 

by the MoE. 

The Marshland area was featured 

on the document as a ‘grey 

zone’, meaning it was an area the 

schools wish to have included in 

the zone. 

The suburbs of Richmond, 

Shirley, Dallington, Avonside and 

Edgeware were not included at all. 

Richmond resident 

Laura McIntosh said she is 

disappointed. 

“Everyone is feeling pretty sad 

about it. We had no idea this was 

going to happen. The first we 

heard that we weren’t going to be 

included was when the two schools 

posted on their Facebook page. 

She said there is “a general feeling 

of abandonment.”

residents Laura

zone for the new 

Shirley Boys’ and

campus, which 

doesn’t include 

the suburbs 

of Shirley, 

Richmond, 

Dallington, 

Avonside or 

Edgeware.

HUNTER 

“We have kids from broken 

primary schools, broken areas, 

and terrible streets, so much unknown 

. . . it’s really upsetting.” 

Other signs put up also read 

“how come areas with no historical 

connections to our school are 

in, but we are left out in the cold?” 

and “don’t abandon our kids.” 

Four public meetings were 

held with both schools’ board of 

trustees and principals. 

“There were no MoE representatives 

at the meetings at all, 

it was really disappointing. They 

didn’t get to gauge the feeling of 

the room, how upset we were,” 

said Mrs McIntosh. 

Ministry of Education deputy 

secretary sector enablement and 

support Katrina Casey said it was 

“not appropriate” to have a representative 

at the meetings. 

“Because school boards lead 

the consultation process with 

their communities.”

Herbs & natural ingredients 

give powerful support 

for your immune system 

Researchers have shown that certain herbs 

& natural ingredients can dramatically 

reduce your chances of succumbing to colds 

& flu. 

Formulas like GO VIR-DEFENCE has 

been based on the latest research and has 

proved itself to many. 

Because of the high potency extracts 

used in this formula most will find only 

one or two capsule daily sufficient to keep 

the immune system at optimum, however 

at the first sign of any immune attack, e.g. 

headaches, sore throat, aches etc. the dose 

can be increased. Most will then find the 

symptoms will disappear quickly without 

getting worse. 

GO VIR-DEFENCE contains the 

following powerful ingredients: 


Olive Leaf Extract has become one of 

the most popular ingredients used in the 

treatment of immune attacks as it has strong 

anti-microbial properties that help slow the 

growth of bacteria & prevent the replication 

of viruses. 

The formula also contains garlic, 

andrographis, Echinacea, pau d’arco, 

elderberry as well as zinc, vitamin C & 

citrus bioflavonoids all to provide effective 

immune support.

HOME & HEATING 


Get rid of 

dampness 

in your house 

Now with the colder and wetter weather on 

its way, home owners are focusing on ways 

to make their homes comfortable, warm and 

healthy for their families throughout winter. 

Rising damp is an issue that affects many of 

our older properties which suffer from poor, or 

no, insulation. In Canterbury especially, postquake, 

many people have relocated to homes 

that suffer from rising damp which can be 

associated with health problems. Independent 

tests have shown that up to 40 litres of water can 

rise from the ground and enter a house every 

day, leading to mildew, mould, condensation 

and musty smells. Moulds can produce various 

allergic reactions and the frail, elderly and very 

young are especially vulnerable. 

Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd is a 

locally owned and operated firm. The team 

understands the problems caused by rising 

damp and are there to help. They will come 

to your damp home and pump a lightweight, 

flowable foam concrete under your timber 

floored home. Specially adapted for our 

New Zealand conditions and applications 

it provides a layer of protection against 

rising moisture. An unexpected benefit that 

the team at Canterbury Foam Concrete 

have noticed recently, is that many owners 

of properties which had underfloor foam 

concrete installed, reported that it also 

provided protection against liquefaction after 

the earthquakes. 

Contact Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd 

now for your free, no obligation quote and 

complimentary appraisal of your underfloor 

ventilation needs. Phone 03 376 4608 or 

0508 362626 for more information. 

Choosing the 

right heat pump 

for your home 

Whether it be a new build, or 

a retrofit, most homes include 

at least one heat pump, if not a 

whole heating solution. They can 

provide cheap, clean heat and are 

much more convenient than a log 

burner as you just need to press 

a button. But how do you decide 

what is best? Choosing the right 

sized heat pump is key to ensuring 

optimum comfort levels. Every 

situation varies and it is therefore 

important to get professional 

advice from heat pump experts. 

The range varies from wall mounted high 

walls, floor mounted systems, multi systems, 

ceiling cassettes, right through to ducted 

central heating systems allowing you to have a 

very discreet way of heating your whole home 

to a constant temperature throughout. 

Firstly, you must select a heat pump that 

is suitable for the size of the space you wish 

to heat. Usually a site visit is the best way to 

ascertain this. Not only is the size of the area 

taken into consideration but also, insulation, 

building orientation, windows and ceiling 

space. There are a wide range of heat pumps 

available with different heating outputs so it is 

important to select 

the correct size for 


investment in your home 

and it is vital to get the 

right advice. 

your requirements 

that will handle 

the job but not 

be unnecessarily 

overpowered. 

Secondly, the 

location of your 

heat pump is also extremely important. The 

cheapest installation is a back to back where 

the outdoor unit is positioned directly behind 

the indoor unit however this is not necessarily 

always the best option. It is vital that the indoor 

unit is positioned in a place that will not be 

constantly blowing on you. Also important, is 

the location of the outdoor unit. Most people 

do not want their outdoor unit sitting directly 

in their outdoor entertaining area or right 

outside their bedroom window. 

Choose a brand you can trust. Many brands 

have come and gone over the years but there 

are a number of manufacturers who provide 

reputable and reliable products. All brands vary 

in their energy efficiency, quietness of systems 

and price, so it depends on your application as 

to which will be most suitable. Major brands 

such as Panasonic, Fujitsu, Mitsubishi, Daikin, 

Toshiba and Hitachi are all reliable brands 

backed up by good technical after sales service. 

Ensure your heat pump is installed by an 

accredited installer. This will not only ensure 

correct installation of your heat pump, but also 

validate the manufacturers warranty. 

Other things to consider when choosing a 

heat pump are time 

clocks, ease of use of 

the remote controllers, 

air filtration and also 

wifi capabilities.

HOME & HEATING 

Fresh air 

in your home 

All houses require air exchange in order 

to stay fresh and dry. No one likes to live 

in a stuffy, smelly, damp home. Indoor air 

quality is important for the health of the 

occupants. Houses can have many sources of 

contaminants, such as bathrooms, kitchens, 

pets, smokers, and even furnishings. Opening 

the windows can refresh the air, but is not 

always an option for security reasons and can 

also lead to heat energy being lost to outside. 

Although older houses have small gaps 

around windows and doors, you want to be 

able to control the flow of air. You don’t want 

air coming in to the bathroom or kitchen and 

pushing the soiled air around the house. It 

is better to expel the air out of kitchens and 

bathrooms to outside. This will draw air in 

from the rest of the house to replace the air that 

has been removed. 

Modern houses are very airtight and 

theoretically require a source of incoming air 

to allow kitchen and bathroom extraction to 

work optimally. Ventilation systems should be 

low air velocity and low air pressure so as not 

to cause draughts. 

There are two main types of ventilation 

system: Positive pressure and Balanced 

pressure. Positive pressure systems, such as the 

Dry-Matic, bring filtered, warmed attic air into 

the house, which then percolates through the 

rooms, pushing the damper stale air out. 

Balanced pressure systems bring in a 

similar amount of air to the amount they 

exhaust. Balanced pressure systems with Heat 

Exchange, such as the HEX390, use the heat 

of the outgoing air to warm the incoming 

air from outside. These are the most energy 

efficient systems available, as they recover up 

to 80% of the energy in the air, rather than 

losing it to outside. Heat exchangers work just 

as well cooling incoming air when the house is 

cooled in summer. 

The NZ building code has recommended 

air exchange rates for houses. To ascertain 

the required airflow for your home, please 

contact Smooth-Air on 0800 SMOOTH 

(0800 766 684), who will also be able to 

recommend a solution if your ventilation 

doesn’t yet meet the New Zealand standard.
