• By Sarla Donovan
A TINY piece of the city’s
railway history has come back
to life.
Railway Tce in Heathcote
Valley has been newly-repaired
following damage in the
September 4, 2010, and February
22, 2011, earthquakes.
The little street was formed
by New Zealand Rail in 1961
to build six workers’ houses
between Port Hills Rd and the
motorway.
NZR later sold them into
private ownership and each
resident owns a sixth of the
road.
It means there’s no city council
responsibility for maintenance
such as road sweepers, weed
spraying or drain clearance.
And the costs of fixing the
quake damage fell on the homeowners’
private insurance.
Plumber Peter Bigelow has
lived on Railway Tce for years.
He said it had taken quite a
bit of co-ordination to fix the
road as it came under private
insurance rather than EQC.
“Half of us were with AA
(Vero) and they took the lead,
managed it and went to the other
insurers.”
Fibre was laid first, then
potholes repaired and new kerbs
and footpaths are now going in.
The work has taken about a
month.
Mr Bigelow said Port Hills MP
Ruth Dyson has been helpful
in advocating on behalf of the
come to for a holiday but you have the
opportunity to live the holiday lifestyle
all year round. There is plenty to do in
and around the town with art galleries,
theatre and cinema, interesting shops
and boutiques, two museums and a wide
range of good places to eat. For the more
adventurous there are river and forest walks
nearby, opportunities for biking and a choice
of two local golf clubs.
For more information and to secure
your future lifestyle call Hayley Grant on

PIECE OF HISTORY: Ngai Tuari is one of six homeowners living on Railway Tce, Heathcote, whose private insurance has funded the
repair of the earthquake-damaged road.
PHOTO: GILBERT WEALLEANS
Railway Tce homeowners.
Ngai Tuari shifted into a
three-bedroom property with
her engine driver husband
about 35 years ago and raised
her four children there, all of
them attending Heathcote Valley
Primary School.
“It’s a lovely street, I wouldn’t
move for quids. In fact, I sold my
other house, the original one, to
my son, so he’s my neighbour.
And he wouldn’t move for quids
as well.”
However, the private road is
“an awful pain,” Mrs Tuari said.
“It’s a private road, but that
doesn’t work because any of the
public are allowed to use it.
The only time it becomes a
private road is when we have
to pay for it. I’d love to put a gate
up there and you pay a
gold coin to go through it.
Then the upkeep wouldn’t be a
problem.”
“But it is a nice community
feel; it’s almost like the country;
you can hear cows, see the horse
paddocks and the watercress
growing everywhere. Just the feel
of the place, it’s lovely.”

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.

In Brief
Fire rages, homes at risk
• By Sophie Cornish
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
regional parks
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
spring/summer season and
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

of the control as it depends on
unknown environmental conditions,

time for it to be controlled and

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.
BUND WORK DEFERRED
Work on building a temporary
bund in the area between Bridge
St and the South New Brighton
jetty has been deferred. The work
was approved by city council
last October as a short-term,
temporary measure to reduce
the flood risk for properties
in the area. Since then more
detailed hydraulic modelling
has suggested the flood risk is
significantly lower than indicated
by early analysis.
ANZAC DRIVE FLOODING
The city council is aware of
an issue regarding surface
flooding during heavy rain at
the intersection of Anzac Drive
and Pages Rd. City council
land drainage manager Keith
Davison said Anzac Drive is an
NZTA asset and that the two are
working together to identify the
cause of the flooding, including
inspections of the pipe network.
FORMER TEACHER DIES
Linwood College’s longest serving
teacher Alan Parris died on April

the school from 1979 until 2016.

Nayland St favoured for skate park
• By Sarla Donovan
IT’S OFFICIAL – the
community’s favoured site for a
skate park is 26 Nayland St.
Consultation results were
released last week, and from 534
submissions a whopping 314 (58
per cent) supported the former
Marine Tavern site.
Sumner beach was the second
most popular with 109 supporters,
and the former Redcliffs
School site third with 78. Scott
Park was a distant fourth, with
just 28 in favour.
Five submitters did not select a
ranking preference.
The Linwood-Central-
Heathcote Community were
to make a decision in April, but
it is now likely to be August
before the matter is put to the
board.
That’s because the city council
is in discussions with the crown
around ownership of the adjacent
sites at 20/24 Nayland St,
said head of parks Brent Smith.
The board has also
requested a soil test on 26 Nayland
St, to “further inform their
decision making for a site,” he
said.
Sumner Green and Skate
spokeswoman Liza Sparrow said
the group was “delighted” 26

popular site for the permanent
skate area, as it would enable a
village green to be developed
adjacent to it.
“We are now one step closer to
achieving the goal of having
a recreation space within the
heart of the village,” said Ms
Sparrow.
“If 26 Nayland Street is approved
for use by our community
board, Sumner Green and
Skate will continue to work with
the city council to ensure that
this project is completed in a
way which best meets the needs
of our community.”
In the meantime, the group
is fundraising for landscaping
and upkeep around the temporary
ramp on the Nayland St/
Wakefield Ave corner, which Ms
Sparrow said may be in place
until 2021.

Fire rages, homes at risk
Long wait
likely for
safety barrier
A $92,000 safety barrier to protect
pedestrians using the coastal
“goat track” in Moncks Bay could
be years away.
The track runs alongside Main
Rd from Redcliffs to Sumner.
It has seen two serious crashes
since 2016.
A new metal barrier was
installed at the Shag Rock bend in
December, following the death of
Maureen Imrie when her husband
Bruce smashed through the
wooden barrier and into the sea.
The walkway south of the bend,
where repeat drink driver Sarah
Arrow crashed into a couple, badly
injuring one, is only protected in
parts by a flimsy wooden fence.
City council transport operations
manager Steffan Thomas
said they were giving “consideration”
to a barrier as part of the
Coastal Pathway project.
But the $10 million Moncks
Bay/Shag Rock section of the
project is not funded in the draft
Long Term Plan – and it may be
years before it is built.
Mr Thomas said design solutions
for that section were being developed,
but given the narrowness of
the area “any solution is very complex
and all options and the associated
costs need to be explored. “

Serious side to racetrack fun
• By Ross Kiddie
DOING SLALOMS in a motor
vehicle and dodging cones on a
racetrack sounds like a lot of fun.
And if you are 16-years-old,
a learner driver and in your
father’s ute, it’s even better.
That’s what Wigram’s Samantha
Sinclair experienced at the
Holden Street Smart programme
held recently at Ruapuna’s Mike
Pero Motorsport Park.
However, there is a serious
side to Holden Street Smart, it
is a nationwide hands-on programme
whereby teenagers who
are learning for their licence can
be taught essential safety skills
in a controlled environment, and
be provided with the confidence
they need to keep them out of
trouble on the road when they
complete stages of the New Zealand
driver licence.
Initiated by Holden New
Zealand, the programme is being
rolled out around New Zealand
and is spearheaded by New
Zealand motorsport legend Greg
Murphy who is taking an active
role in each of the events.
“It was fun, but it was a good
way to learn about the technology
in a car and the safety
features,’’ Samantha said.
“We learnt different techniques
and it was cool to be part of the
fun stuff.’’ Ten different
elements are
incorporated into
the day-long course.
Some include
understanding
braking techniques,
reaction time and
safe stopping distances.
Others
incorporate an
understanding
of
safe following
distances

Introducing safer and more competent
drivers to our roads is the
major aspect of the programme.
Samantha said she enjoyed the
simulation where an unmarked
police car stopped the vehicle
she was driving, something
which could happen any time on
the road. An officer introduced
himself and went through a
standard process – asking for her
licence and checking warrant of
fitness and registration details
before asking her to blow into an
alcohol breath-testing device.
“The officer said he would have
been a bit worried if anyone on
the course had failed the test,”
Samantha said
“The course was pretty good, it
was all beneficial, and it covered
all of the tough things that I’m
likely to face in my licence test.”

Emergency
plan
taking shape
• By Emily O’Connell
PLANS ARE being put in place
to prepare Riccarton residents
for an emergency.
A group met late last month
to start creating the Riccarton
Emergency Response Plan.
City council head of
community, governance
and partnerships Lester
Wolfreys said the plan aims
to build community resilience
by identifying hazards. It
was initiated as a result of
community feedback following
the Kaikoura earthquake and
tsunami warning.
He said representatives from
the city council, Ministry of
Civil Defence and Emergency
Management, Canterbury
Neighbourhood Support and
Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton
Community Board attended the
meeting last month.
“It’s intended that this will be
community-led once up-andrunning.
It is in the initial stages
at present,” he said.
The next meeting on the plan
will be held later this month and
is open to anyone interested in
participating.

Fist full of gold for boxing squad
SPORTS
• By Jacob Page
CANTERBURY titles have
highlighted a successful
build-up to June’s South Island
Golden Gloves tournament for
Riverside Boxing Gym.
Four of the five Addingtonbased
team members came away
with titles while the fifth was
a runner-up in a bout many
considered the fight of the
tournament, at the Cashmere
Club.
The South Island Golden
Gloves will be held at the same
venue over Queen’s Birthday
weekend.
Jamie Mulligan, Alex Oliver,
Sonny Teki-Clark and Sophie
Mullaley all claimed Canterbury
titles while Thomas Hanford
won silver after a points defeat to
New Zealand title-holder Kasib
Murdoch.
“To have six wins in seven
fights certainly exceeded our
expectations.
“If you saw our gym, it’s the
size of two double garages so to
have this outcome so close to
South Island Golden Gloves is
just great for our confidence,”
coach Matt Neale said.
Mulligan’s 69kg novice title
PACKING A PUNCH: The Riverside Boxing Club came back from the Canterbury Championships
with four titles. From left – Matt Neale, Thomas Hanford, Alex Oliver, Sonny Teki-Clark and Dave
Mather.
win was most impressive considering
he had three fights in one
day and won them all, one by
knockout.
Oliver, who won the 75kg open
title, had not been in the ring for
two years but decided to come
out of retirement after starting
his own business.
“(Oliver) was always popping
his head in every so often and
then all of a sudden he was hear
three-to-four times a week,”
Neale said.
Mullaley, from Riccarton High
School, won the junior girls’
under-54kg title unopposed.
Teki-Clarke won the light
heavyweight under-91kg title
with a solid win.
Hanford, from Christchurch
Boys’ High School, was the
runner-up in the under-60kg
class.

More delays
for Burnside’s
Aurora Centre
• By Julia Evans
UNFORESEEN fire compliance
issues have again delayed the
Aurora Performing Arts Centre’s
reopening.
Earthquake repairs,
refurbishment and upgrades have
been ongoing since January and
were expected to be completed by
February to minimise impact on
Burnside High School students.
The reopening was delayed
until March, but it has now been
revealed the centre won’t open
until May 11.
“Due to the complexity of this
work, plus unforeseen compliance
issues with new fire regulations,
the Aurora Centre will not be
available for school use until the
beginning of term two,” principal
Phil Holstein said in a report.
He said work on the exterior of
the building would continue until
November.
The performing arts centre, on
the site of Burnside High School,
has been undergoing weather
tightness and earthquake damage
repairs.
Mr Holstein said while the repair
work was going on, the school
was also taking the opportunity
to spend time doing “necessary”
upgrades to the centre.
The school has spent $2 million
on the upgrades, which include a
new air-conditioning system and
refreshing the exterior paint.

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:
SOUTHERN VIEW
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.

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
Heating is a major
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.
Heating is a major
investment in your
home and it is vital to
get the right advice.

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.
