A GROUP of passionate<br />
gardeners has reached a<br />
milestone – one year of growing<br />
a community garden in the red<br />
zone.<br />
The Richmond Community<br />
Garden celebrated its first<br />
birthday last week, marking a<br />

Zealand leased the biggest<br />
piece of land it had ever leased<br />
to a community group last<br />
year.<br />
But the garden was so successful<br />
the lease was adjusted in six<br />
months to .8ha.<br />
Co-founder Cathy Allden<br />
said she thinks the group is<br />
very lucky to have the calibre of<br />
volunteers it has.<br />
“Because we have been on this<br />
journey post-earthquake together<br />
we are a really tight group<br />
and I think that is something<br />
powerful and you can’t recreate<br />
the right people, the right time<br />
and the right circumstance,” she<br />
said.<br />
The group has been through<br />
its ups and downs with thieves<br />
stealing more than $550 of garden<br />
tools from its storage shed<br />
earlier this year.<br />

SLOW PROGRESS to recover<br />
New Brighton’s commercial<br />
centre has left businesses<br />
lacking confidence the city<br />
council will follow through on<br />
its plans.<br />
It has been more than three<br />
years since the city council approved<br />
the New Brighton Centre<br />
Master Plan.<br />
It planned to extend Oram Ave<br />
through to the main thoroughfare<br />
of Hawke St, creating a new<br />
north-south shopping and entertainment<br />
precinct, sheltered from<br />
the easterly wind.<br />
Development Christchurch Ltd<br />
has been tasked as the lead agency<br />
for the regeneration.<br />
Businesses have been left “disheartened”<br />
and are questioning if<br />
the city council will carry through<br />
on its plans.<br />
Coupland’s Bakeries New<br />
Brighton store manager Cherie<br />
Douglas said from what she has<br />
seen since the earthquakes she<br />
is not confident the plan will be<br />
implemented.<br />
“People are just disheartened<br />
. . . they don’t want to come this<br />
way. The roads are absolutely rubbish,”<br />
she said.<br />

from the reporter’s desk<br />
THE BLEAK outlook businesses have over New Brighton’s<br />
future means action to revive the area needs to be taken now<br />
more than ever.<br />
The fact is some businesses, such as Crema Cafe, are only staying<br />
in the area in the hope that the city council and Development<br />
Christchurch Ltd will do something to improve it.<br />
The New Brighton Centre Master Plan, approved in 20<strong>15</strong>, gave<br />
businesses vision and hope.<br />
But now, three years down the line, businesses are in need of<br />
more assurance the city council’s plans will get under way soon<br />
so they can continue to invest in the area.<br />
New Brighton has great potential and the city council’s plans<br />
have the power to transform it into a thriving hub.<br />
Let’s hope something happens sooner rather than later.<br />

Stanmore Rd petition gains momentum<br />
Resident calls<br />
for 30km/h<br />
speed limit<br />
• By Sophie Cornish and Georgia<br />
O’Connor-Harding<br />
A PETITION to address safety<br />
concerns at a “dangerous”<br />
pedestrian crossing on Stanmore<br />
Rd is gaining traction.<br />
More than 500 signatures have<br />
been gathered by Richmond<br />
resident Gillian<br />
Sheard in a bid<br />
to slow traffic<br />
down and make<br />
the crossing more<br />
visible to drivers.<br />
She is calling<br />
Deon<br />
Swiggs<br />
for the speed on<br />
Stanmore Rd to<br />
be reduced from<br />
50km/h to 30km/h.<br />
Ms Sheard is also pushing<br />
for the pedestrian crossing to<br />
either be raised or have traffic<br />
lights placed at the Stanmore Rd/<br />
Avalon St corner.<br />
“I am scared like anything<br />
there is going to be a near death<br />
of major accident,” she said.<br />
Ms Sheard said there are a lot<br />
of elderly and disabled people in<br />
the area and she wants everyone<br />
ADVOCATE: Richmond resident Gillian Sheard has started a<br />
petition to address safety concerns at a pedestrian crossing<br />
on Stanmore Rd.<br />

to be safe. The pedestrian<br />
crossing has been a concern for<br />
more than two years and<br />
Ms Sheard first raised her<br />
concerns to the city council in<br />
2016.<br />
She believes the problem is<br />
drivers are too concerned about<br />
getting through the intersection<br />
of North Avon Rd and Stanmore<br />
Rd and are not looking for pedestrians.<br />
About <strong>15</strong>,000 vehicles<br />
use the road daily.<br />
City council transport operations<br />
manager Steffan Thomas<br />
said staff had considered options<br />
to reduce the safety risk and<br />
the recommendation is to not<br />
upgrade the crossing.<br />
This was due to its relatively<br />
low-use, no pedestrian-related<br />
crashes, and to ensure safety<br />
improvement funds are allocated<br />
wisely.<br />
He said there is no justification<br />
to reduce Stanmore Rd to<br />
30km/h or plans to upgrade the<br />
crossing in the future.<br />
The owner of Stanmore Rd’s<br />
The Sideline Sports Bar, Nikki<br />
Bradley, said she has been there<br />
for five years and has seen a lot of<br />
people nearly hit on the crossing.<br />
“It is a very dangerous crossing<br />
. . . if you walked out onto it<br />
expecting them to stop you are<br />
playing with your life as far as I<br />
am concerned,” she said.<br />
Miss Bradley said she would<br />
like to see a similar design to the<br />
pedestrian crossing on Williams<br />
St in Kaiapoi, where the footpath<br />
is built out onto the road to make<br />
pedestrians more visible.<br />
She is “shocked” nothing has<br />
been done about it.<br />
Blue Tiki Hair owner Juanita<br />
Scandrett said the crossing is just<br />
the “tip of the iceberg” and the<br />
whole area is “downtrodden”.<br />
City councillor Deon Swiggs<br />
said some simple things can<br />
be done to make it more noticeable.<br />

Dallington<br />
Residents’<br />
Association<br />
chairwoman<br />
Bebe Frayle<br />
writes about<br />
the suburb’s<br />
need to<br />
for a new<br />
community hub<br />
The people of Dallington have<br />
been deeply affected by the earthquakes.<br />
Two-thirds of the area has been<br />
depopulated in the development of<br />
residential red zone, and traditional<br />
community meeting places that<br />
were important for community<br />
connectedness were lost.<br />
This has created fragmentation<br />
and social isolation in our community<br />
– we do not have a place to<br />
meet, to gather, to talk about our<br />
issues.<br />
We have watched with interest as<br />
other areas have had beautiful new<br />
community spaces built.<br />
We do not begrudge them, but<br />
many Dallington residents feel that<br />
they have been left out of the postearthquake<br />
community regeneration.<br />
Looking at the Long Term Plan,<br />
it does not seem that this trend is<br />
going to change.<br />
There is no capital expenditure allocated<br />
to the Burwood Ward in the<br />
LTP for community initiatives.<br />
We felt that we have waited<br />
patiently for our turn, but that our<br />
turn may never come.<br />
The Coastal-Burwood<br />
Community Board has been<br />
provided funding for a feasibility<br />
study to consider locations and uses<br />
of a community facility, but there<br />
is little point in completing this if<br />
there is no funding available for us<br />
to built our hub.<br />
We recognise that it is not possible<br />
for every suburb in the east to get<br />
new community facilities.<br />
So, we have been working collaboratively<br />
with the residents associations<br />
in Burwood and Avondale to<br />
think of ways to get a community<br />
hub for our residents.<br />
Our community is prepared to<br />
think creatively to get the community<br />
space we need, but this will only<br />
get us so far.<br />
We don’t have the resources to<br />
raise our own community centre -<br />
we need the city council’s help with<br />
this.<br />
We are ready to move on, and we<br />
are looking forward – soon there<br />
will be a green spine winding its way<br />
through our community, and great<br />
opportunities will come with this.<br />

Old Aranui Primary may rise again<br />
• By Sophie Cornish and Georgia<br />
O’Connor-Harding<br />
A CHURCH has expressed<br />
an interest in using the former<br />
Aranui Primary School site.<br />
St George’s/Iona Presbyterian<br />
Church on Breezes Rd is looking<br />
at purchasing the school site<br />
when it becomes available.<br />
Reverend Sheena Dickson has<br />
described it as a “brave and bold<br />
move” for the small parish of 25.<br />
“What we are thinking of is<br />
a place for the community to<br />
worship . . . the possibilities are<br />
exciting,” she said.<br />
The church’s former site<br />
was severely damaged in the<br />
February 22, 2011, earthquake<br />
and it currently doesn’t have a<br />
permanent place to worship.<br />
The city council currently allows<br />
the church a permit to use<br />
a house on Pages Rd, but it will<br />
run out soon.<br />
It also shares its spaces with<br />
parishes, including the New<br />
Brighton Union Church and<br />
Linwood Avenue Union Church.<br />
The school site, located on 257<br />
Breezes Rd, is currently being<br />
passed on from the Ministry of<br />
Education to Land Information<br />
New Zealand to start the disposal<br />
process.<br />
The MoE is determining if<br />
the site is required for another<br />
POTENTIAL: St George’s/Iona Presbyterian Church has<br />
expressed an interest in purchasing the former Aranui Primary<br />
School site when it becomes available.<br />
public work. The primary school<br />
closed in 2016 when it merged<br />
with Aranui High, Avondale<br />
Primary and Wainoni School<br />
to form Haeata Community<br />
Campus.<br />
Rev Dickson said the church<br />
would like to keep the existing<br />
tenants on the school site as<br />
it wants to be “engaged in the<br />
community as much as possible.”<br />
The site is currently used<br />
by under-five parenting programme,<br />
The Incredible Years,<br />
and alternative education programme,<br />
Te Kupenga o Aranui.<br />
“It is very tentative at the moment<br />
for us . . . we would have<br />
to have huge support from the<br />
wider church,” Rev Dickson<br />
said.<br />
Coastal-Burwood Community<br />
Board member Tim Baker believes<br />
the idea “will be brilliant”<br />
and a “massive<br />
benefit to the<br />
community.”<br />
Mr Baker<br />
said retirement<br />
villages are lacking<br />
in the area<br />
and people are<br />
being forced to<br />
move out of their<br />
communities to<br />
receive this care.<br />
“They are trying to stay in<br />
their houses for as long as<br />
Tim Baker<br />
they can because they don’t want<br />
to move out of their communities.”<br />
He believes it would be a waste<br />
of money to pull the school<br />
buildings and hall down.<br />
“If (the church) bought the<br />
site, they could use the buildings<br />
and hall for church purposes,<br />
and rooms could also be rented<br />
to tenants, some of which are<br />
already there.”<br />
A timeline of when the property<br />
will be purchased could not<br />
be confirmed.<br />

Organisation<br />
receives<br />
boost from<br />
engineering firm<br />
Fire rages, homes at risk<br />
THE CANTERBURY Down<br />
Syndrome Association has<br />
received a boost of $12,420 from<br />
structural engineering firm<br />
Constructure.<br />
To celebrate its 10th anniversary,<br />
Constructure launched a<br />
Givealittle page in April, inviting<br />
its customers to donate to a good<br />
cause as an ‘unorthodox birthday<br />
present.’<br />
The firm donated $10,000 and its<br />
clients donated $2420.<br />
Constructure founder Cory Bedford<br />
said he was excited that his<br />
clients got into the spirit.<br />
“I really want to thank all our<br />
customers for their generosity that<br />
will make a big difference for a<br />
small local charity like the CDSA.”<br />
The CDSA provides support,<br />

‘All Blacks of singing’<br />
win 11th national<br />
Sweet Adelines title<br />
WINNING IS now second<br />
nature for the Christchurch<br />
City Chorus, which took home<br />
the national Sweet Adelines<br />
competition title for the 11th<br />
time.<br />
The group has finished first<br />
in every national barbershop<br />
competition it has entered since<br />
forming in 1987, and has been<br />
referred to as the “All Blacks of<br />
singing.”<br />
Singing under the direction<br />
of musical director Virginia<br />
Humphrey-Taylor, the team is<br />
made up of 130 women, mainly<br />
from Christchurch.<br />
In the competition held earlier<br />
this month, contestants were<br />
assessed by four international<br />
judges from the United States<br />
and Sweden.<br />
Said Ms Humphrey-Taylor:<br />
“The judges were excited to see<br />
a performance of such a high<br />
international level. The beautiful<br />
singing and the high energy field<br />
that was delivered was thoroughly<br />
enjoyed.”<br />
As the national champion,<br />
the group will represent New<br />
Zealand at the Sweet Adelines<br />
international competition in<br />
New Orleans next year.<br />

But the city council’s head of<br />
urban regeneration, urban design<br />
and heritage Carolyn Ingles said<br />
the plan has not been deferred.<br />
“The draft LTP allocates more<br />
than $4.5 million in funding to<br />
upgrade Marine Pde and Brighton<br />
Mall . . . and for tree pits and<br />
rain gardens in the commercial<br />
centre,” she said.<br />
The plan also includes additional<br />
funding for New Brighton<br />
projects over the next three years<br />
including $9.7 million for phase<br />
one of the hot water salt pools,<br />
the South New Brighton Park<br />
Development and the Pages Rd<br />
Bridge replacement.<br />
Ms Ingles said the master plan<br />
always anticipated projects would<br />
be delivered over a short, medium<br />
and long-term time-frame.<br />
It comes after Eastern Vision<br />
raised concerns over the master<br />
plan’s progress to the city council’s<br />
Long Term Plan <strong>2018</strong>-2028.<br />
In a submission it said, if the<br />
plan is not moved forward, “irreparable<br />
damage will be done to<br />
the communities and businesses<br />
served by this hub”.<br />
Eastern Vision spokesman<br />
Evan Smith told <strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong><br />
the master plan has never been<br />
delivered on, a part from on the<br />
foreshore.<br />
He said when he talks to<br />
business, landowners and community<br />
organisations they are<br />
very “disillusioned” and have no<br />
confidence in the city council or<br />
DCL.<br />
Mr Smith said there was a<br />
“large outcry” from New Brighton<br />
in the last LTP.<br />
“This time they are so disillusioned,<br />
so disengaged with the<br />
process they thought why even<br />
bother to say anything anymore.<br />
They have given up,” he said.<br />
So far, as part of the plans the<br />
New Brighton Beachside Playground<br />
has been completed and<br />
work is yet to begin on the New<br />
Brighton hot pools.<br />
Mrs Douglas said while<br />
the playground is “lovely” for<br />
residents, it is not going to bring<br />

LITTLE HOPE: New Brighton businesses are not expecting<br />

Crema Cafe owner Raj Kaur<br />
said the only reason she is keeping<br />
the business is the hope the<br />
city council will improve the<br />
area.<br />
“I hope they do something. It is<br />
really heartbreaking,” she said.<br />
But city councillor Glenn Livingstone<br />
said he thinks progress<br />
is going well with the playground<br />
already in place and progress on<br />
the hot pools under way.<br />

Every year, regional awards of<br />

around the country to officially<br />
recognise SLSNZ members for<br />
their work and dedication.<br />
The Canterbury-Tasman<br />
awards will be held at Sixty6 in<br />
the Christchurch Casino and<br />
include lifeguards from the<br />

The evening will conclude with<br />
the announcement of club of the<br />

The winners of each category<br />
from the awards are then automatically<br />

the national SLSNZ awards of<br />
excellence in September, where<br />

Community garden group celebrates<br />
•From page 1<br />
The group has various projects<br />
under way including running a<br />
shop on Wednesdays and Saturdays<br />
selling feijoas, walnuts, bees<br />
wax and food wraps, kale powder<br />
and lavender cream.<br />
“People come in and buy. It<br />
is just a huge compliment<br />
people are supporting what<br />
we are doing,” Miss Allden<br />
said.<br />
The group has started a native<br />
gardening section, planted heritage<br />
and apple trees and weaved<br />
garden beds.<br />
Last week co-founder Hayley<br />
Guglietta made a submission to<br />
the city council’s Long Term Plan<br />
<strong>2018</strong>-2028 to discuss options for<br />
the garden becoming an extension<br />
of Avebury Park.<br />
It is hoping the city council<br />
will take over the land to give<br />
certainty the garden is permanent.<br />
Miss Alden said the ultimate<br />
goal is to have a clubhouse in<br />
2021 so it can do more workshops,<br />
sell produce and potentially<br />
run a bike hire, picnic areas<br />
and have a outdoor pizza oven.<br />
“We are applying for funding<br />
but the idea is we will be selfsustaining,”<br />
she said.<br />

Retirement<br />
village residents<br />
win battle over<br />
bus access<br />
DIANA ISAAC Retirement<br />
Village residents have won<br />
the battle of the buses after<br />
Environment Canterbury bent<br />
over backwards to include them<br />
on a new route.<br />
About 80 pensioners living in<br />
the retirement village on Philpotts<br />
Rd, Mairehau, presented a petition<br />
to ECan, pleading for it to<br />
reconsider route changes to the<br />
Orbiter bus which would see their<br />
closest bus stop move 900m away<br />
from the village.<br />
ECan originally proposed cutting<br />
their bus route outside the<br />
village and moving it 1km away<br />
to Innes Rd. But, during a packed<br />
meeting in the village on Friday,<br />
ECan staff presented a new route.<br />
ECan chairman Steve Lowndes<br />
said he hoped residents liked what<br />
had been planned.<br />
“I told you (at the protest) we<br />
would bend over backwards to<br />
find a solution to suit you.”<br />
The new proposal will see the<br />
No 44 Shirley bus connect close to<br />
the village, and a new stop will be<br />
provided <strong>15</strong>0m from the entrance.<br />
The bus will run every half<br />
hour, with extended hours for<br />
Diana Isaac Retirement Village<br />
staff working until 9pm.<br />
Peni gets ‘new perspective’ in bush<br />
A HAEATA Community<br />
Campus student has walked<br />
away with a new perspective on<br />
life after taking part in a popular<br />
outdoor adventure programme.<br />
Year 13 student Peni Junior<br />
Iva, aka PJ, has returned from<br />
three weeks at Outward Bound.<br />
He went with 13 other<br />
“watchmates”, all from different<br />
parts of the country, and all<br />
with their own individual<br />
backgrounds.<br />
“Everyone was different, they<br />
all had inspiring stories,” said PJ.<br />
He was awarded a scholarship<br />
to attend the 21-day course at<br />
the Outward Bound centre in<br />
Anakiwa, Queen Charlotte<br />
Sound.<br />
Its ‘school leadership’ course<br />
is designed to help young people<br />
become fitter and stronger and<br />
further develop their social<br />
skills and confidence.<br />
The outdoor experience was<br />
a highlight for PJ. “We did a<br />
lot of activities, like kayaking,<br />
tramping, rock climbing, high<br />
ropes and sailing, all of them<br />
were new for me.”<br />
Rock climbing while<br />
blindfolded gave PJ the<br />
opportunity to trust himself and<br />
trust others.<br />
“I was shaking and my arms<br />
were giving up, but once you get<br />
to the top and see the amazing<br />
IN THE WILD: Peni Junior Iva (inset) stayed in a camp like this as part of his Outward Bound<br />
experience.<br />
view, you are proud of yourself.”<br />
Learning mental toughness<br />
and how to handle frustration<br />
and anger were some key skills<br />
that PJ learnt through the<br />
various challenges.<br />
The staff taught him about<br />
“living in the moment” and<br />
“not stressing about things you<br />
cannot change”.<br />
The solo experience, which<br />
involves spending two nights<br />
and two days alone in the bush,<br />
gave PJ a chance to reflect on<br />
life.<br />
Describing the experience,<br />
PJ said “they drop you off at<br />
night, so I just focused on what<br />
I needed to do to get set up and<br />
then getting to sleep as soon as<br />
possible.”<br />
While on his own, he thought<br />
about all the good things in his<br />
life that weren’t with him there,<br />

particularly his family.<br />
“I missed my nephew a lot,”<br />
he said.<br />
It was hard to say goodbye to<br />
his ‘watchmates’ but good to<br />
be home. And his family has<br />
noticed a change – they say he’s<br />
more patient.<br />
What would he say to others<br />
interested in Outward Bound?<br />
“Just do it, live in the<br />
moment,” PJ said.<br />

Parker to tee off against world’s best<br />
SPORTS<br />
• By Gordon Findlater<br />
CHRISTCHURCH club golfer<br />
Tom Parker will tee off with<br />
the New Zealand team at the<br />
junior golf World Cup in Japan<br />
next month.<br />
Parker will join Juliana<br />
Hung and Hiroki Miya,<br />
of the Russley club, in the<br />
seven-strong team, alongside<br />
Aucklanders Carmen Lim and<br />
Rose Zheng, Kevin Koong<br />
from North Harbour and<br />
Shaun Campbell from Bay of<br />
Plenty.<br />
The selection comes on<br />
the back of what has been<br />
a remarkably successful<br />
12 months for the three<br />
Canterbury golfers.<br />
It will be Parker’s second<br />
time competing in the<br />
tournament. Last year he<br />
finished 24th overall and<br />
helped the New Zealand boys<br />
team to finish sixth.<br />
“It’s my favourite event I’ve<br />
ever played in,” said Parker.<br />
“The course layout is<br />
awesome. It’s perfectly<br />
manicured, narrow with either<br />
tree trouble or out-of-bounds<br />
either side so you’ve got to hit it<br />
straight.”<br />
After finishing his final year<br />
SWING: Tom Parker (above) will join Hiroki Miya and Juliana Hung in the New Zealand team<br />
to tee off at the junior golf World Cup in Japan next month.<br />
at Christchurch Boys’ High<br />
School in 2017, Parker has<br />
been able to concentrate on his<br />
game before beginning college<br />
at the University of Oregon in<br />
the United States.<br />
With a strong support unit<br />
around him, he’s confident of a<br />
good result in Japan.<br />
“I feel like going back<br />
there this time I have extra<br />
confidence. . . . I’ve been there<br />
before and will be doing a few<br />
things differently this time<br />
around,” said Parker.<br />
He will be joined in the four<br />
strong boys team by Miya, who<br />
is having a year to remember<br />
after the biggest win of his<br />
young golfing career at the<br />
Faldo Series Asia grand-final<br />
in Vietnam in March.<br />
“I’m really excited. I think<br />
we have a really strong team<br />
and have an opportunity to do<br />
really well,” said Miya.<br />
Hung will look to continue<br />
a strong run of results in<br />
New Zealand and abroad when<br />
she represents the girls team.<br />
The New Zealand stroke<br />
play champion represented<br />
her country last week at<br />
the Queen Sirikit Cup –<br />
Asia-Pacific amateur ladies<br />
golf team championship in<br />
Thailand.<br />
The junior golf World Cup<br />
will feature <strong>15</strong> men’s and nine<br />
women’s teams.<br />
The tournament runs from<br />
June 10-<strong>15</strong> at the Chukyo Golf<br />
Club Ishino course.<br />
Having three Christchurch<br />
golfers named in the team is<br />
a rare accomplishment and a<br />
strong sign of a talented young<br />
crop of golfers emerging in the<br />
region.<br />
“We are very proud of the<br />
achievement to have Juliana,<br />
Tom and Hiroki selected<br />
to represent New Zealand<br />
at the junior World Cup<br />
event, it’s quite a remarkable<br />
achievement,” said Canterbury<br />
Golf development manager<br />
Rachel Thow.<br />
“These players have<br />
worked hard to earn their<br />
selection in this team and will<br />
gain valuable international<br />
experience amongst some of<br />
the best junior players in the<br />
world.”<br />

SPORTS<br />
FOCUSED: Shirley’s Heneli Moala sets his sights on a loose ball.<br />
SBHS go down to Lincoln<br />
in another close contest<br />
SHIRLEY BOYS’ High School’s<br />
second half rally wasn’t enough<br />
as a late penalty saw them lose<br />
18-20 to Lincoln Combined on<br />
Saturday.<br />
SBHS had trailed 12-6 at halftime<br />
in their UC Championship<br />
round two fixture at Lincoln<br />
High School before they came<br />
to life.<br />
Two tries to open the second<br />
half saw them turn their six<br />
point deficit into a six point lead<br />
midway through the final stanza.<br />
While Lincoln replied with an<br />
unconverted try of their own,<br />
SBHS cling to a one point advantage<br />
until the final minutes.<br />
SBHS had the chance to<br />
extend their advantage with<br />
several long-range penalty goal<br />
attempts, but each failed to split<br />
the uprights. Lincoln calmly slotted<br />
the match-winner 5min from<br />
full-time.<br />
SBHS will look for their first<br />

Burnside-based preschool and nursery,<br />
The Enchanted Garden, was handed over<br />
to new owner-operator Debbie Taylor in<br />
October. She has been in early childhood<br />
management for over seven years and has<br />
three children of her own. Along with the<br />
familiar faces of long-time staff, Debbie’s<br />
vision is to continue the high quality care<br />
and reputation that The Enchanted Garden<br />
has maintained since 1995.<br />
The centre offers children a home away<br />
from home, with a philosophy based on<br />
holistic, individualised care. They engage<br />
higher teacher-to-child ratios to allow better<br />
care and attention. The centre is staffed with a<br />
team of professional educators and nurturers<br />
who are highly trained and passionate about<br />
creating happy experiences.<br />
The setting is warm and home-like in<br />
nature while the playground and indoor<br />
environment have been designed to allow<br />
children to safely explore and learn with<br />
confidence. This is supported by a strong<br />
curriculum designed for active and exciting<br />
play.<br />
With 10 spaces in their nursery, and 23<br />
spaces in their preschool, the centre provides<br />
the complete early childhood service. The<br />
fluidity of care allows children to form close<br />
bonds while families enjoy peace of mind.<br />

SCHOLARSHIPS & SCHOOL OPEN DAYS<br />
Ultimate campus taking shape<br />
at QEII Park<br />
Construction of the new state-of-the-art campus for<br />
Avonside Girls’ and Shirley Boys’ High Schools is progressing<br />
rapidly with opening on track for next year.<br />
Sue and John.<br />
The new campus will feature a Performing Arts Centre<br />
with a 750-seat theatre and a 200-seat theatre, a hockey<br />
turf, four sports fields, three indoor gymnasiums, a café,<br />
and a large library and learning centre.<br />
Both Avonside Girls’ Principal Sue Hume and Shirley<br />
Boys’ High School Headmaster John Laurenson are<br />
excited by the progress.<br />
“There are now more than 100 workers on site – that<br />
will peak to more than 300 in coming months. The steel<br />
framing is up and the concrete slabs are down and we<br />
can see now just how big this campus will be – it’s simply<br />
wonderful,” says John Laurenson.<br />
“You can finally see all that we have been talking about<br />
and dreaming about taking shape. We will be onsite with<br />
our students, staff and community making the most of all<br />
of the fantastic new facilities before we know it.”<br />
The campus is due to open in Term Two of 2019. It will<br />
be the first time in New Zealand’s history that two single<br />
sex schools will be co-located.<br />
John Laurenson says the co-location will enable the<br />
schools to offer students more.<br />
“Because we’re building together, we’ve been able to<br />
build bigger and better facilities.”<br />
Sue Hume says the co-location will also enable better<br />
educational opportunities.<br />
“We’ll collaborate on teaching some senior subjects,<br />
so we can offer students wider choice and there’s also<br />
the opportunity to work together on co-curricular<br />
opportunities – such as productions, sports competitions<br />
and the like.”<br />
Both principals are keen to point out that the colocation<br />
is not a merger.<br />
“We’ll still be Shirley and they’ll still be Avonside. We’ll<br />
work together, but both schools will retain their own<br />
culture, identity, staff and uniform. This is not a co-ed<br />
school,” says John Laurenson.<br />
“Research shows that single sex education benefits<br />
both boys and girls,” says Sue Hume. “Boys perform<br />
better academically and girls participate more. This new<br />
campus, has been designed so that students will still<br />
spend most of their time in a single sex environment.”<br />
Both Sue and John say the campus will be an asset the<br />
east of Christchurch will be proud of.<br />
“We’ll be right alongside the new QE2 Sport and<br />
Recreation Centre, the School of Gymnastics and have a<br />
satellite unit for Ferndale School onsite. It’s going to be a<br />
great place to learn.”<br />
AVONSIDE GIRLS’<br />
HIGH SCHOOL<br />
OPEN EVENING<br />
Thursday 24 <strong>May</strong> <strong>2018</strong> from 5.00pm – 7.00pm<br />
The evening begins in the gymnasium at 5.00pm, with an<br />
address from the Principal Mrs Sue Hume, and student<br />
representatives. A tour of the school follows, with the<br />
opportunity to talk to teachers and students.<br />
We look forward to welcoming all prospective students and<br />
families for 2019.<br />

HEALTH & AWARENESS<br />
PEGASUS POST<br />
Headache & Migraine<br />
can be treated<br />
Scm<br />
The crosses are the area of the<br />
muscle spasms (triggerpoints).<br />
The red areas is where the<br />
pain is felt.<br />
Temporalis<br />
muscle<br />
Neck muscle that causes headaches, earaches and facial pain.<br />
Most headaches and migraines are<br />
caused by an accumulation of<br />
factors. Factors like the condition<br />
of your spine, neck, jaw and face muscles,<br />
but also posture, breathing pattern and<br />
your ability to manage stress. Once the<br />
threshold is reached, you will suffer a<br />
headache. Research shows in most cases,<br />
the neck plays a significant role (Dwyer<br />
et al. 1990). Migraine sufferers who react<br />
well to migraine medication have excellent<br />
results when treated for neck dysfunction<br />
(Pavese et al. 1994).<br />
Our physiotherapists have extensive<br />
experience in treating headaches and<br />
can quickly determine what treatment is<br />
needed. This often leads to a significant<br />
decrease in both the intensity and<br />
frequency of your headaches.<br />
As physiotherapist Ietje van Stolk<br />
explains, when our muscles tighten this<br />
can refer pain to many of the areas around<br />
the face and head. Dehydration can be the<br />
catalyst for tightening the neck muscle<br />
(SCM), which causes pain in the ear,<br />
forehead and around the eye and jaw-joint<br />
areas. Tightening of the temporalis muscle<br />
can refer pain to the teeth, which can be<br />
confusing when you visit the dentist to<br />
have it checked and the dentist can’t find a<br />
reason for the recurring pain.<br />
Teeth grinding at night and teeth<br />
clenching during the day are also a major<br />
cause of muscle tightening.<br />
Physiotherapy treatment for these<br />
problems is based on deactivating the<br />
‘trigger points’ through hands-on massage<br />
therapy to relax the muscles, which is the<br />
least invasive and a very effective form<br />
of treatment. Dry needling is another<br />
technique used for muscle relaxation, and<br />
can be used with the client’s consent, Ietje<br />
says.<br />
Immediate relief is achieved by releasing<br />
your tight muscles. At the same time we<br />
work on the cause of the problem. For<br />
example, a “feedback” headband can be<br />
provided to be worn at night to help you<br />
The muscle that causes headaches and toothaches.<br />
learn not to clench your teeth while asleep.<br />
Sometimes we need to work on the neck<br />
part of your spine, where overuse or stress<br />
can cause muscles to tighten, creating pain:’<br />
Teaching self-management of stress can<br />
also be an important aspect of the total<br />
treatment, as well as teaching breathing<br />
techniques, which go hand in hand with<br />
managing stress.<br />
Our qualified physiotherapists specialise<br />
in dealing with chronic pain, such as<br />
headaches, earache, toothache, and facial<br />
and jaw pain. ………………...We can help<br />

FOCUS ON HEALTH<br />
Supporting Your<br />
Bowel & Digestive<br />
Function Helps<br />
Prevent Disease<br />
It is most important to keep the whole<br />
digestive & elimination systems of the<br />
body working efficiently. Otherwise toxins<br />
that have not been eliminated set the stage<br />
for disease. Many diseases have been linked<br />
with micro-organisms (virus) or a bacterial<br />
component. Generally these microorganisms<br />
or bacteria can only survive<br />
due to the fact that the environment they<br />
are in is suitable for their survival. Non<br />
eliminated toxins are probably one of the<br />
main causative factors for their survival.<br />
We know that when the digestive system<br />
& bowel function are poor we have many<br />
more health problems. These include<br />
arthritis, digestive problems like reflux &<br />
stomach pain, bladder infections, chronic<br />
skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis &<br />
rashes, poor eyesight, pain & inflammation,<br />
tumors & a weakened immune system just<br />
to name a few.<br />
Nature’s Sunshine LBS II contains a<br />
highly effective blend of natural herbs to<br />
support the whole digestive system & it is<br />
especially effective at cleansing the lower<br />
bowel & intestinal tract. It is commonly<br />
used for arthritis, constipation, diarrhea,<br />
digestive problems, dry stool, fever, colds &<br />
influenza, flatulence, gallstones, gout, skin<br />
conditions like eczema & psoriasis, urinary<br />
infections, liver dysfunction, Candida,<br />
weakened immune function & for people<br />
who want to keep their health as good as<br />
possible.<br />
The herbs in LBS II help stimulate the<br />
production of digestive fluids & bile for<br />
efficient digestion. This alone may help<br />
prevent many diseases as a properly working<br />
digestive system will itself neutralise many<br />
disease causing organisms before they<br />
have a chance to cause any problems. LBS<br />
II also stimulates peristaltic action of the<br />
colon effectively cleansing the colon of any<br />
accumulated build-ups of waste material. It<br />
also relaxes abdominal cramping & spasms,<br />
enhances liver function, purifies the blood,<br />
neutralizes acidic conditions, helps destroy<br />
intestinal parasites & worms, & fights<br />
infection.<br />
Keeping your digestive system & bowels<br />
functioning efficiently is definitely &<br />
important step in obtaining & maintaining<br />
good long term health.<br />

1 in 2 people<br />
deficient in B12<br />
Emerging research has shown as many as 50% of older adults<br />
& as many as 25% of younger adults are deficient in vitamin B12.<br />
Scientists at Rush University Medical Center found those most<br />
deficient in vitamin B12 to have the smallest brain mass & the lowest<br />
scores on tests measuring short-term memory, concentration &<br />
brain performance. Another study showed that older people with<br />
higher levels of B12 in their blood have bigger, healthier brains &<br />
score higher on cognitive tests than those with lower levels. Yet<br />
another recent landmark study showed that B12 supplementation<br />
slows the accelerated rate of brain shrinkage & declining cognitive<br />
function. B12 is essential for energy production, cell health,<br />
regulation of mood & sleep cycles, nerve health & repair, &<br />
prevention of homocysteine a serious cardiovascular risk factor<br />
that is known to cause damage & plaque in the blood vessels. It can<br />
also increase the chances of a stroke. Harvard researchers found a<br />
34% decrease risk of vision loss in a study of participants aged 40+<br />
who supplemented with B12. Another study linked a higher risk<br />
of hearing loss in subjects in their 60’s who were low in B12.<br />
The reason so many people lack B12 appears to be our body’s<br />
ability to absorb it declining with age as the digestive system<br />
becomes less efficient. Anti-reflux medication & other drugs<br />
further reduce B12 absorption. The good news is B12 in<br />
the form of Methylcobalamin<br />
sublingual tablets that are<br />
dissolved in the<br />
mouth & thru<br />
bypassing the<br />
digestive tract have<br />
been shown to<br />
effectively raise B12<br />
levels in the body.<br />

HOME & HEATING<br />
Choosing the right heat<br />
pump for your home<br />
Whether it be a new build, or a retrofit,<br />
most homes include at least one heat pump,<br />
if not a whole heating solution. They can<br />
provide cheap, clean heat and are much more<br />
convenient than a log burner as you just need<br />
to press a button. But how do you decide what<br />
is best? Choosing the right sized heat pump is<br />
key to ensuring optimum comfort levels. Every<br />
situation varies and it is therefore important<br />
to get professional advice from heat pump<br />
experts.<br />
The range varies from wall mounted high<br />
walls, floor mounted systems, multi systems,<br />
ceiling cassettes, right through to ducted<br />
central heating systems allowing you to have a<br />
very discreet way of heating your whole home<br />
to a constant temperature throughout.<br />
Firstly, you must select a heat pump that<br />
is suitable for the size of the space you wish<br />
to heat. Usually a site visit is the best way to<br />
ascertain this. Not only is the size of the area<br />
taken into consideration but also, insulation,<br />
building orientation, windows and ceiling<br />
space. There are a wide range of heat pumps<br />
available with different heating outputs so it<br />
is important to select the correct size for your<br />
requirements that will handle the job but not<br />
be unnecessarily overpowered.<br />
Secondly, the location of your heat pump<br />
is also extremely important. The cheapest<br />
installation is a back to back where the outdoor<br />
unit is positioned directly behind the indoor<br />
unit however this is not necessarily always the<br />
best option. It is vital that the indoor unit is<br />
positioned in a place that will not be constantly<br />
blowing on you. Also important, is the location<br />
of the outdoor unit. Most people do not want<br />
their outdoor unit sitting directly in their<br />
outdoor entertaining area or right outside their<br />
bedroom window.<br />
Choose a brand you can trust. Many brands<br />
have come and gone over the years but there<br />
are a number of manufacturers who provide<br />
reputable and reliable products. All brands vary<br />
in their energy efficiency, quietness of systems<br />
and price, so it depends on your application as<br />
to which will be most suitable. Major brands<br />
such as Panasonic, Fujitsu, Mitsubishi, Daikin,<br />
Toshiba and Hitachi are all reliable brands<br />
backed up by good technical after sales service.<br />
Ensure your heat pump is installed by an<br />
accredited installer. This will not only ensure<br />
correct installation of your heat pump, but also<br />
validate the manufacturers warranty.<br />
Other things to consider when choosing a<br />
heat pump are time clocks, ease of use of the<br />
remote controllers, air filtration and also wifi<br />
capabilities.<br />
Heating is a major investment in your home<br />
and it is vital to get the right advice.<br />
Enviro Master Ltd specialise in the supply,<br />
installation and servicing of all major brands<br />
of heat pumps. Our salesmen are engineers<br />
ensuring you get quality, unbiased advice as<br />
to which system will suit your application<br />
the best. Enviro Master Ltd offer a free, no<br />

Get rid of<br />
dampness<br />
in your house<br />
Now with the colder and wetter weather on<br />
its way, home owners are focusing on ways<br />
to make their homes comfortable, warm and<br />
healthy for their families throughout winter.<br />
Rising damp is an issue that affects many of<br />
our older properties which suffer from poor, or<br />
no, insulation. In Canterbury especially, postquake,<br />
many people have relocated to homes<br />
that suffer from rising damp which can be<br />
associated with health problems. Independent<br />
tests have shown that up to 40 litres of water can<br />
rise from the ground and enter a house every<br />
day, leading to mildew, mould, condensation<br />
and musty smells. Moulds can produce<br />
various allergic reactions and the<br />
frail, elderly and very young are<br />
especially vulnerable.<br />
Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd<br />
is a locally owned and operated<br />
firm. The team understands the<br />
problems caused by rising damp<br />
and are there to help. They will<br />
come to your damp home and<br />
pump a lightweight, flowable<br />
foam concrete under your<br />
timber floored home. Specially<br />
PEGASUS POST<br />
adapted for our New Zealand conditions and<br />
applications it provides a layer of protection<br />
against rising moisture. An unexpected<br />
benefit that the team at Canterbury Foam<br />
Concrete have noticed recently, is that many<br />
owners of properties which had underfloor<br />
foam concrete installed, reported that it also<br />
provided protection against liquefaction after<br />
the earthquakes.<br />

HOME & HEATING<br />
Fresh air<br />
in your home<br />
All houses require air exchange in order<br />
to stay fresh and dry. No one likes to live<br />
in a stuffy, smelly, damp home. Indoor air<br />
quality is important for the health of the<br />
occupants. Houses can have many sources of<br />
contaminants, such as bathrooms, kitchens,<br />
pets, smokers, and even furnishings. Opening<br />
the windows can refresh the air, but is not<br />
always an option for security reasons and can<br />
also lead to heat energy being lost to outside.<br />
Although older houses have small gaps<br />
around windows and doors, you want to be<br />
able to control the flow of air. You don’t want<br />
air coming in to the bathroom or kitchen and<br />
pushing the soiled air around the house. It<br />
is better to expel the air out of kitchens and<br />
bathrooms to outside. This will draw air in<br />
from the rest of the house to replace the air that<br />
has been removed.<br />
Modern houses are very airtight and<br />
theoretically require a source of incoming air<br />
to allow kitchen and bathroom extraction to<br />
work optimally. Ventilation systems should be<br />
low air velocity and low air pressure so as not<br />
to cause draughts.<br />
There are two main types of ventilation<br />
system: Positive pressure and Balanced<br />
pressure. Positive pressure systems, such as the<br />
Dry-Matic, bring filtered, warmed attic air into<br />
the house, which then percolates through the<br />
rooms, pushing the damper stale air out.<br />
Balanced pressure systems bring in a<br />
similar amount of air to the amount they<br />
exhaust. Balanced pressure systems with<br />
Heat Exchange, such as the HEX390, use the<br />
heat of the outgoing air to warm the incoming<br />
air from outside. These are the most energy<br />
efficient systems available, as they recover up<br />
to 80% of the energy in the air, rather than<br />
losing it to outside. Heat exchangers work just<br />
as well cooling incoming air when the house is<br />
cooled in summer.<br />
The NZ building code has recommended<br />
air exchange rates for houses. To ascertain<br />
the required airflow for your home, please<br />
contact Smooth-Air on 0800 SMOOTH<br />
(0800 766 684), who will also be able to<br />
recommend a solution if your ventilation<br />
doesn’t yet meet the New Zealand standard.<br />

AUTOMOTIVE PROFESSIONALS<br />
New premises<br />
for car light<br />
specialists<br />
NEW<br />
LOCATION<br />
95<br />
gasson st<br />
Long-established car light specialists,<br />
Braxton Car Lights, are now shining their<br />
lights from a sparkling new address – just<br />
around the corner from their familiar<br />
Brougham Street site.<br />
Just prior to Christmas, the business<br />
moved from 325 Brougham Street to 95<br />
Gasson St, where they offer a brighter<br />
showroom, easier access for their customers<br />
and plenty of off-street parking.<br />
“We’re all set up in our new premises,”<br />
sales manager Richard Vernimmen says,<br />
“and continuing to provide our customers<br />
with an extensive range of replacement<br />
lights for most Japanese, European and<br />
New Zealand-made vehicles. We can cover<br />
most vehicles on the road, and all our lights<br />
are fully checked and in perfect working<br />
order.”<br />
If they don’t have it in stock, they can<br />
source it from one of the other branches in<br />
the nationwide BE Group, Richard says. BE<br />
is one of New Zealand’s largest importers of<br />
car, truck and commercial parts.<br />
Braxton Car Lights also offers a repair<br />
service for headlights, with their skilled<br />
staff of three having 80 years’ experience<br />
in the automotive trade between them.<br />
They also specialise in light adjuster and<br />
light conversion of American<br />
car lights and their repair<br />
service includes plastic<br />
welding, drying out, and<br />
re-silvering, re-sealing<br />
and lens refurbishment.<br />
Their services can also<br />
be arranged through<br />
your own local garage or<br />
workshop.<br />
So, next time you need<br />
replacement car lights, call<br />
into Braxton Car Lights’ bright new<br />
showroom, 95 Gasson St, phone 0800 225<br />

Celebrating 56 years<br />
on the local music scene<br />
NEVILLE Wilkins & the Viscounts celebrate<br />
56 years on the music scene this weekend<br />
making them one of New Zealand’s longest<br />
established dance bands.<br />
Straits, Tom Jones, Cliff Richard, Englebert<br />
Humperdink, and Elvis Presley,” said Neville.<br />
“So we play a good mixture of 50's, 60's, 70's<br />
ballads, rock and roll, country and even Irish.”<br />
Today the Viscounts - Neville Wilkins<br />
(trumpet); Christine Williams (vocals); Dave<br />
Petrie (keyboards); Ray Harris (guitar);<br />
Graeme Wallis (bass); John Wilson (drums) -<br />
still perform at private functions and the<br />
occasional public show.<br />
‘Famous for their roasts!’<br />

Christchurch trumpeter, Neville Wilkins<br />
formed the band in 1962 and during its career<br />
The Viscounts has had around 60 members,<br />
with some staying as long as 20 years.<br />
Their first residencies included<br />
Christchurch’s 500 Club in Chancery Lane and<br />
The Town & About in Peterborough St,<br />
followed later by the Bush Inn Courts and<br />
Twiggers.<br />
With a career spanning well over five<br />
decades, the group has adapted its repertoire<br />
with time and today play a wide selection of<br />
material.<br />
“I always aimed for the band to play the<br />
most popular artists, such as Ricky Nelson,<br />
Billy Vaughan, Beatles, Rolling Stones, Gene<br />
Pitney, Eddie Calvert, Neil Diamond, Dire<br />
Neville Wilkins & the Viscounts appear at<br />
the Woolston Club, Hargood St, this Saturday<br />
