THE ST Andrew’s College<br />
preparatory first XI hockey<br />
team had the chance to learn<br />
some tips and tricks from<br />
former Black Sticks star Gemma<br />
McCaw.<br />
McCaw played 246 games for<br />
New Zealand scoring 71 goals<br />
since 2008.<br />
Page 3 Page 10<br />
McCaw inspires St Andrew’s first XI<br />
The 28-year-old spoke to<br />
the students for 30min<br />
about perseverance and<br />
success and answered any<br />
questions.<br />
She also ran a coaching<br />
and skills session on the school<br />
turf.<br />
The opportunity came about<br />
when a parent won an auction<br />
for McCaw’s time at the Chalky<br />
Carr Trust fundraising dinner,<br />
of which McCaw is the patron.<br />
She spoke to the team about<br />
the importance of looking<br />
within yourself, giving 100 per<br />
cent and never giving up on<br />
your dreams.<br />
She stressed the importance<br />
of staying focused on school<br />
work as well as the need for a<br />
career after sport.<br />
The team will be travelling to<br />
the AIMS Games in Tauranga<br />
in September.<br />
They hope to place in the top<br />
five at that event.<br />
The team currently play in<br />
division two in the Canterbury<br />
Hockey Kwik Sticks 11-aside<br />
competition.<br />
They currently sit at the top of<br />

Consent<br />
sought<br />
to build<br />
Belfast<br />
shopping<br />
centre<br />
• By Sophie Cornish<br />
THE FIRST stage of a commercial<br />
centre in Belfast may soon get the<br />
green light after almost 20 years of<br />
planning.<br />
Belfast Village Centre Ltd has<br />
applied for a land use consent to<br />
develop a commercial centre on<br />
Main North Rd, near the corner of<br />
Johns Rd.<br />
The 11,295 sq m proposal includes<br />
a supermarket as the key anchor<br />
tenant and several retail, food and<br />
office spaces.<br />
A city council spokeswoman said<br />
the consent is still being processed<br />
and no decision has been made yet.<br />
Planning for the site dates back<br />
to the early 2000s when a sequence<br />
of Environment Court cases began<br />
between Apple Fields Ltd, the city<br />
council and Environment Canterbury<br />
as to the zoning of the land.<br />
The application covers stage one<br />
of the development.<br />
Future stages, which will involve<br />
separate consent applications, are<br />
anticipated to include community<br />
facilities such as a health care and<br />
child care centre. •Turn to page 4<br />

CHRISTCHURCH continues to grow.<br />
Our front page article today reveals more<br />
commercial development is planned in<br />
the north-west, this one near the corner of<br />
Main North Rd and Johns Rd.<br />
It comes on the back of major roading changes to the area and<br />
fast residential growth. People mean money and where there’s<br />
people and money, business sets up.<br />
There’s never been any rocket science in that.<br />
The Belfast plan includes a supermarket as the key anchor tenant<br />
– no surprises there – and retail and food outlets.<br />
It was first mooted 20 years ago by the late Tom Kain, of horse<br />
racing and Apple Fields fame, and his wife Tessa. She is behind<br />
the latest application.<br />

Rats invade park in St Albans<br />
• By Sophie Cornish<br />
RATS HAVE taken up<br />
residence in Abberley Park,<br />
St Albans, threatening the<br />
monarch butterfly and fantail<br />
populations.<br />
Traps have been set to rid the<br />
park of rats. Friends of Abberley<br />
Park group member Patricia<br />
Wallace said butterfly numbers<br />
had been noticeably dwindling.<br />
“When concerns were raised<br />
that rats might be eating<br />
butterflies in the trees at night, it<br />
immediately spiked our interest.<br />
We also have quite a lot of<br />
fantails and we know rats eat the<br />
eggs and fledglings of our native<br />
birds like these,” she said.<br />
City council manager<br />
community parks Al Hardy said<br />
while no decisions have been<br />
made in relation to rat control,<br />
cameras, traps and a small<br />
number of mice and rat traps<br />
have shown evidence of rats in<br />
the park.<br />
Only one rat nest has been<br />
found so far, after a dog had a<br />
particular interest with one tree.<br />
“We shook the trees and<br />
we saw rats running in the<br />
branches,” said Ms Wallace.<br />
Ms Wallace is calling on<br />
any volunteers who could help<br />
to reduce the problem, and is<br />
urging the public to report any<br />
information if they see rats in<br />
the park.<br />
She said all parties involved<br />
want to be careful about what<br />
sort of traps that are set.<br />
“Because it’s a public park, it’s<br />
bounded by domestic buildings<br />
which will probably have cats<br />
and dogs and there are children,<br />
too, who enjoy the park, too, so<br />
we can’t be having any poison<br />
UNWELCOME VISITOR: A rat<br />
that was spotted in a tree in<br />
Abberley Park, St Albans.<br />
baits.” She believes the number<br />
of rats in Christchurch has<br />
increased since the earthquakes.<br />
“There is still an awful lot<br />
of buildings in demolition or<br />
rebuild states in St Albans.”<br />
‘We’re optimistic that the<br />
new traps might make a big<br />
difference and we are asking<br />
people to notify us if they see<br />
any rat nests in the park,” she<br />
said.<br />

In Brief<br />
PRINCIPAL RETIRES<br />
The principal of Isleworth<br />
School will retire at the end of<br />
this year. Jeanette Shearer has<br />
been principal at the school for<br />
12 years. Mrs Shearer also has<br />
several other roles including<br />
being the former president of the<br />
Canterbury Primary Principals’<br />
Association and leader of the<br />
Waimairi-iri Community of<br />
Learning. The board of trustees<br />
will now seek a replacement to<br />
begin in 20<strong>19</strong>. BOT chairwoman<br />
Heather Algar said Mrs Shearer<br />
has been a “pinnacle part of the<br />
growth of Isleworth School over<br />
the past 12 years.”<br />
WORK ON PUMP STATIONS<br />
The city council is targeting<br />
work on pump stations in the<br />
north-west of the city to improve<br />
well head security, in order to<br />
stop chlorinating the water at<br />
those pump stations. Water<br />
supply improvement programme<br />
manager Helen Beaumont said<br />
the pump stations involved<br />
have a mix of above ground and<br />
below ground well heads. Those<br />
identified for remedial works are<br />
Grampian, Farrington, Burnside,<br />
Grassmere, Hills and Mays.<br />
Mayor Lianne Dalziel said she will<br />
remain determined to have city<br />
council resolve the chlorination<br />
issue within the 12 months.<br />

chairman<br />
Sam<br />
MacDonald<br />
writes<br />
about the Nor’West <strong>News</strong><br />
article last week about<br />
how he voted against<br />
granting funding to a<br />
community development<br />
organisation<br />
I RECENTLY voted against<br />
giving $20,000 of ratepayer<br />
money to Te Ora Hou<br />
Otautahu to fund a social work<br />
programme to address needs<br />
such as mental health, and as<br />
the chairman of our board<br />
that has attracted some media<br />
attention.<br />
It would be fair to say I’ve<br />
copped some heavy criticism<br />
this week for that call, but<br />
equally so – I have been heartened<br />
by the phone calls from<br />
locals pleased that I have spoken<br />
out for ratepayers.<br />
Don’t get me wrong, I am all<br />
for supporting people who are<br />
in need of help, and am a strong<br />
believer in the social investment<br />
approach that was championed<br />
by former Prime Minister Bill<br />
English. Where I disagree is<br />
over who should fund it – I am<br />
strongly in the camp that says<br />
this is, and should be, a responsibility<br />
of central government<br />
not local government.<br />
I hear from residents across<br />
the Fendalton, Waimairi<br />
and Harewood Wards on a<br />
daily basis with concerns over<br />
roading, water chlorination,<br />
cycleway spending and now<br />
likely rate rises as a result of the<br />
city council’s Long Term Plan<br />
<strong>2018</strong>. This current LTP has quite<br />
rightly pointed out that there is<br />
a limited pool of funds that can<br />
be used in our city to improve<br />
everything we need done, and<br />
that additional spending comes<br />
out of the pockets of all us who<br />
pay rates.<br />
With infrastructure pressures,<br />
rate increases and ballooning<br />
city council debt the only responsible<br />
call I could make was<br />
to point out that local ratepayers<br />
shouldn’t be subsidising the<br />
Government.<br />
Gary Knight responds to<br />
last week’s article about<br />
community board funding<br />
being granted to Te<br />
Ora Hou Otautahi<br />
The hallmark and criteria<br />
of any community board<br />
is its ability to assess funding<br />

a decision did not engage full<br />

such issues as mental health,<br />

New bid for Edgeware Pool funding<br />
• By Sophie Cornish<br />
A GIVE-A-LITTLE campaign<br />
was set to be launched yesterday<br />
in a bid to begin fundraising for<br />
the new Edgeware Pool.<br />
The pool has a budget of $5<br />
million which will see an 25m<br />
outdoor pool and a 14m indoor<br />
pool.<br />
A launch event to unveil a<br />
new logo and the fundraising<br />
campaign was set to be held<br />
yesterday at the old pool<br />
entrance on Edgeware Rd.<br />
One of the longest members<br />
of the St Albans Swim Club<br />
and president for many years,<br />
Brian Gardner, attended the<br />
launch, along with Christchurch<br />
Central MP Duncan Webb,<br />
city councillors, Papanui-Innes<br />
Community Board members<br />
and other supporters from the<br />
community.<br />
Nor’West <strong>News</strong> released plans<br />
by Apollo Designs, who designed<br />
the new QE II, for the pool in<br />
April.<br />
The complex will have no<br />
operating cost for ratepayers as it<br />
is an entirely community-driven<br />
project<br />
Pool spokesman Paul<br />
Somerville said the support from<br />
design agency ‘imagic’ for the<br />
logo provided a professional edge<br />
to the important part of the pool<br />
project.<br />
“Raising money is obviously<br />
key to the success of getting<br />
Edgeware Pool open. We have a<br />
much smaller budget than other<br />
proposed pool projects around<br />
the city. However, it’s still a<br />
significant amount of money.”<br />
“We have already raised<br />
more than $150,000 to fund the<br />
project to this point, as well as<br />
an equivalent amount in probono<br />
services and consultancy<br />
fees which was needed to get<br />
the resource consent. We are<br />
extremely grateful. And now<br />
imagic is doing this pro bono<br />
which is extraordinary,” said Mr<br />
Somerville.<br />
Imagic account director Tim<br />
Thomas said the agency feels<br />
particularly excited about being<br />
involved in the project as it is not<br />
far from where the new pool will<br />
be located.<br />
“We are on Colombo St, on the<br />
Edgeware side of Bealey Ave, just<br />
down the road from where the<br />
new pool will be. We are looking<br />
forward to popping up the road<br />
for a swim at lunchtimes,” he<br />
said.<br />
Mr Somerville believes there’s<br />
a sense that a new pool on<br />
the original site will heal the<br />
hurt which resulted from city<br />
council closing and subsequently<br />
bulldozing the pool more than<br />
a decade ago. “The original<br />
Edgeware pool was built in<br />
<strong>19</strong>34 after a major fundraising<br />
drive by locals and was run by<br />
the St Albans Swim Club, until<br />
the city council took over its<br />
management in 2002. The rest<br />
they say, is history and with so<br />
many pools in schools no longer<br />
operating, the importance of<br />
exercise (and access to facilities),<br />
and the number of young people<br />
who can’t swim, we believe the<br />
need for this facility grows every<br />
year,” said Mr Somerville.<br />

CAR PARKS LOST<br />
Traffic congestion and risk<br />

of parking on Trafalgar St.<br />
The narrow width of the<br />
road near the intersection<br />
with Edgeware Rd means<br />
when cars are parked on<br />
the west side of the street,<br />
cars are restricted from<br />
travelling north up the<br />

Kittens keep stretch classes purring<br />
• By Stacey Bryan<br />
CAT RESCUE Christchurch has<br />
teamed up with the Altitude Pole<br />
and Fitness studio to bring kitten<br />
stretch classes to the city.<br />
The two 90min stretch<br />
sessions sold out well in advance<br />
due to the promise of cuddles<br />
with rescued kittens during the<br />
class.<br />
Altitude Pole and Fitness<br />
instructor Oliva Andersen said<br />
the fundraiser was intended to be<br />
a one-off, but a second class was<br />
CUDDLY: Instructor Oliva<br />
Andersen said it was easy to<br />
be distracted by the kittens<br />
during the stretch class.<br />
added to cope with the hugely<br />
positive response from the public.<br />
“Everyone was basically just in<br />
awe,” she said.<br />
Miss Andersen, who lives in<br />
Parklands, said it was great to be<br />
able to do something good for<br />
the kittens, as well as the class<br />
participants.<br />
As a non-profit organisation,<br />
CRC uses its fundraised money<br />
to pay for the medical bills of the<br />
cats it rescues.<br />
CRC volunteer Michelle Fitz<br />
Patrick said because the organisation<br />
does not have a centre, there<br />
is normally nowhere for people to<br />
go and see the cats available for<br />
adoption.<br />
“This brings them all out for<br />
people to actually see . . . and they<br />
are all on Trade Me waiting to be<br />
adopted”<br />
The first two classes raised<br />
$800 for CRC and inspired<br />
several people to sign up as volunteers.<br />
Miss Andersen said the classes<br />
also resulted in two kittens being<br />
adopted. She said as a cat lover, it<br />
was difficult to resist taking one<br />
home.<br />
She thinks there will be a<br />
demand for more kitten stretch<br />
classes in the future, but it would<br />
involve a lot of organisation to fit<br />
them around the studio’s already<br />

Prestons Rd<br />
• By Sophie Cornish<br />
ALPINE VIEW Lifestyle Village<br />
Ltd is planning to develop<br />
another retirement village, just<br />
3km west of its current one on<br />
Prestons Rd.<br />
Broadwater Retirement Village<br />
will have close to 200 residential<br />
units, comprising of five different<br />
housing types.<br />
It will house a specialist dementia<br />
facility with 16 rooms, a<br />
60-room rest-home care facility<br />
and a lodge, a communal facility<br />
with 40 apartments, a swimming<br />
pool, cafe, restaurant, medical<br />
centre, salon and gym.<br />
There will also be a club house<br />
function centre, which will be<br />
used by residents and hired<br />
out, as well as 80 car parks. A<br />
resource consent for the project<br />
was granted in April.<br />
Demands generated by an<br />
ageing population and forecasted<br />
growth in the area were cited as<br />
reasons for the development.<br />
Its completion date is unclear.<br />
Alpine Retirement Group Ltd<br />
chief executive Graeme Dodd<br />
said the development is in its<br />
early stages.<br />
Respite care available now<br />
If you’re planning a break and want your loved one to<br />
receive the best possible care while you’re away, or they<br />
need temporary care after surgery, we offer respite care.<br />
Did you know you can also use your carer support allowance?<br />
Right now the very best of respite care is available in<br />
one of our beautifully appointed serviced apartments,<br />
resthome or hospital rooms.<br />
At Ngaio Marsh Retirement Village enjoy a warm<br />
stay and delicious hearty meals made fresh on-site<br />
daily by our own village chef.<br />

Designed by Tony Hoare<br />
of Wilke & Bruce Architects,<br />
the centre features an<br />

of students win ‘best<br />
communication with the<br />
audience’ and ‘best student<br />

regional competition held<br />
in Christchurch.<br />
The cast and directors<br />
advanced through to the<br />
national competition in<br />
Wellington, where they<br />
won three awards. They<br />
took out best comedy, best<br />
student directed ensemble<br />
(for Ruby and Emily) and<br />
the most convincing onstage<br />
connection, which<br />
was won by Ruby and<br />
Sophie McClean as Celia<br />
and Rosalind. The girls also<br />
participated in workshops<br />
run by actors and directors,<br />
saying the highlights<br />
of their trip included<br />
a special welcome by<br />
Governor-General Dame<br />
Patsy Reddy, exploring<br />
Government House and<br />
taking in the Wellington<br />
theatre culture.<br />
For the competition, the<br />
students were required to<br />
come up with a setting,<br />
interpretation and to<br />
‘breathe new life’ into<br />
Shakespeare to make it<br />
relevant for a modern<br />
audience.<br />

A Hundred<br />
Stories of Hope<br />
and Healing<br />
A one night only event in Christchurch<br />
In May 2009, nationally acclaimed interior designer Hayley Brown was<br />
diagnosed with breast cancer. She quit her career of 25 years to find some<br />
solution that didn’t include chemo, radiation or surgery. Together with her<br />
partner, nutritionist and high performance coach Todd Balfour, she travelled<br />
the world looking for better ways of dealing with cancer.<br />
Journeying through Australia, Bali, Spain and finally landing in the USA. Hayley<br />
had Hyperthermia in LA for just 14 weeks and her 5cm tumour disintegrated<br />
completely. She was cleared of cancer using a PET scan in July 2010.<br />
In May 2013 the cancer came back with a vengeance, chances of survival<br />
looked slim. Over the duration of her illness, Hayley lost everything, her health,<br />
her home, her career - all her money had been used up in the fight to stay<br />
alive. She was now dying and in debt. “I was given a round of chemo to subdue<br />
the tumour that had grown out through my skin. I never had any surgery - it<br />
was potentially life threatening so I turned it down. I was discharged and the<br />
oncologist said that she would ‘manage me forward’ (till I died).”<br />
“But I wasn’t thinking about dying, I was thinking about living and wanting to<br />
help others…” In 2014, despite apparently having limited time, Hayley and Todd<br />
began a new venture called “Health Evolution” on the Kāpiti Coast.<br />
“Not knowing how long I was going to be around, I took on a month-to-month<br />
lease in a commercial building. That was five years ago. To the amazement of<br />
oncology, and the landlord, I am still alive and my cancer is in remission.”<br />
So what happened? What changed the game?<br />
At Heath Evolution, Hayley and Todd offer Pulsed Electromagnetic field therapy<br />
(PEMF) and mild Hyperbaric Oxygen therapy (HBOT) treatments based on<br />
cutting-edge German protocols.<br />
Both modalities have far-reaching implications for physical and neurological<br />
rehabilitation. PEMF and HBOT work by taking advantage of the welldocumented<br />
effects of electromagnetic fields and the power of oxygen<br />
combined with pressure on cellular function and metabolism.<br />
From tiny babies to senior citizens, we have witnessed remarkable turnarounds<br />
in health for a wide variety of illness’s and conditions.<br />
Let us share with you a hundred stories of hope and healing.<br />
Come and hear the remarkable stories of health restored<br />
If you’re baffled by the overwhelming mass of health claims of<br />
what’s good for you and what’s not; if you know there must<br />
be a better way to achieve lasting well-being; if you’ve<br />
tried to improve your health, and nothing worked; if you<br />
believe that ‘health is wealth’ – then come along.<br />
We’d love for you to hear our journey.<br />
Q&A will be available afterwards.<br />

Clark eyes up water polo champs in Hungary<br />
SPORTS<br />
• By Jacob Page<br />
CHRIST’S COLLEGE water<br />
polo exponent Louis Clark<br />
has been selected in the New<br />
Zealand team for the youth world<br />
championships in Hungary in<br />
August.<br />
The 16-year-old from Fendalton<br />
impressed selectors at a national<br />
selection camp in Auckland three<br />
weeks ago.<br />
“It was a new environment for<br />
me, those trials, and I was a little<br />
nervous to start with, but I felt<br />
better the longer it went and to be<br />
selected is such a huge honour,”<br />
he said.<br />
Clark said he followed his older<br />
brother into the sport at the start<br />
of high school and has loved it<br />
ever since.<br />
“I’ve always loved being physical<br />
in sports and water polo is like<br />
rugby in water,” he said.<br />
Clark also splits his time<br />
between competitive swimming<br />
and surf lifesaving at the Taylor’s<br />
Mistake club.<br />
Between his three sporting<br />
ambitions, he has 12 regular trainings<br />
a week which doesn’t leave<br />
room for much else.<br />
He said being able to have the<br />
right balance between power and<br />
agility was crucial for water polo.<br />
While Europe tends to dominate<br />
the scene, Clark said he and<br />
the rest of the New Zealand<br />
team are eager to test themselves<br />
against the world’s best.<br />
“It will be good to see where we<br />
are at and test ourselves against<br />
the best of what is out there,” he<br />
said.<br />

The story behind Papanui’s Rayburn Ave<br />
Papanui Heritage Group<br />
chairman Murray Williams<br />
writes about Rayburn Ave<br />
RAYBURN AVE, formerly<br />
called Ingmire St, runs parallel<br />
to Papanui Rd between Paparoa<br />
St and Grants Rd. The street<br />
occupies an area originally<br />
carved out of rural sections 302<br />
and 307.<br />
In <strong>19</strong>13, 11 sections in a new<br />
housing development on Ingmire<br />
St were advertised in The Press. It<br />
was claimed that it was ‘the last<br />
block of land suitable for subdivision<br />
in the locality’ and that the<br />
new street was ‘properly made<br />
with concrete channelling and<br />
asphalt pavements.’<br />
Perhaps the four years of war<br />
slowed building development,<br />
as in <strong>19</strong>20 there were still building<br />
lots available in this street,<br />
but the coming decade saw a<br />
boom in the construction of new<br />
housing in south Papanui and<br />
Ingmire St was no exception.<br />
The Californian bungalow,<br />
characterised by street-facing<br />
double gables complemented<br />
with shingles, dominated in the<br />
<strong>19</strong>20s, while in the next decade<br />
the elegant English bungalow<br />
HISTORY: A <strong>19</strong>20s Californian bungalow on Rayburn Ave.<br />
with its hipped roof and more<br />
complex window joinery was<br />
popular. After the war, the more<br />
basic bungalow, developed by<br />
Paramount Homes, made an<br />
appearance at the north-eastern<br />
end of the street.<br />
It is possible that a change in<br />
the name of the street had added<br />
to its popularity as the northern<br />
end of Ingmire St had been notoriously<br />
swampy and, although<br />
drained before subdivision, its<br />
name had done little to inspire<br />
confidence in potential residents.<br />
In <strong>19</strong>26, the street became Rayburn<br />
Ave, although in <strong>19</strong>32 an<br />
article in The Press noted the apparent<br />
anomaly that the avenue<br />
was treeless. It is not clear when<br />
the planting occurred; unlike<br />
neighbouring Perry and Dormer<br />
St, Rayburn Ave was not a designated<br />
memorial street, a status<br />
which attracted kerb side planting<br />
after World War 2. The introduction<br />
of street-side trees to<br />
Rayburn Ave must have occurred<br />
between <strong>19</strong>32 and <strong>19</strong>43, the latter<br />
the date of a city council minute<br />
scheduling future tree planting<br />
in south Papanui streets where, it<br />
was noted, that ‘Rayburn Ave had<br />
already been done’.<br />
Today, Rayburn Ave is a pleasant<br />
and popular residential street.<br />
Many of the original houses have<br />
been modified but most of these<br />
enhancements have been sensitively<br />
designed and the street has<br />
maintained much of its original<br />
character.<br />
In 2016, Rayburn Ave was one<br />
of several in this neighbourhood<br />
to face the threat of reclassification<br />
to permit more intensive<br />
housing development.<br />
Eventually an independent<br />
hearing panel ruled against this<br />
application and hopefully the<br />
street will be able to retain its<br />
distinctive charm based on the<br />
well preserved timber bungalows<br />
that characterised the inter-war<br />
period.<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 />

Up to 1 in 2 people may have a shrinking brain due to a lack of vitamin B12.<br />
Supplementation of methylcobalamin B12 has been shown to reduce the rate of brain<br />
shrinkage & support memory & brain function. B12 is also known to protect against<br />
homocysteine a serious cardiovascular risk factor that can also damage the hearing,<br />

added to be effective for those who have<br />
suffered from Osteoporosis, Intermittent<br />
Claudication, and Diabetes. On top of<br />
that they also run four weekly classes<br />
for seniors. These weekly rehabilitation<br />
and injury prevention classes can lead to<br />
continued gym membership at a reduced<br />
cost. Participants may also be eligible for<br />
a WINZ subsidy to pay for the continued<br />
gym membership with their super<br />
Gold card.<br />

Fresh air<br />
in your home<br />
Get the right<br />
choice for winter<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 Heat<br />
Exchange, such as the HEX390, use the heat<br />
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 />
Every year around about<br />
now people start to plan<br />
ahead for their winter<br />
heating needs. High on<br />
most people’s ‘must have’<br />
list is a Heat Pump. They<br />
have naturally become<br />
extremely popular because<br />
of their cheap heat and<br />
“touch of a button”<br />
convenience.<br />
Heat pumps are<br />
however a significant,<br />
long term investment, so<br />
it’s important to make the<br />
right choice.<br />
New Zealand properties tend to be of<br />
unique design and have many features that<br />
greatly affect their heating requirements.<br />
Factors such as location, orientation to<br />
the sun, room volume, heat loss surface<br />
area, and room air flow characteristics, etc.<br />
all play a major role. This means that the<br />
heat pump that is right for your friend or<br />
neighbour is not necessarily right for you.<br />
Add to that the fact that all manufacturers<br />
claim to have the best, quietest, most energy<br />
efficient, and have a multitude of constantly<br />
updating models; finding out which heat<br />
pump is best is not so straightforward.<br />
Getting the right heat pump for your<br />
home is a combination of accurate<br />
calculation of the space to be heated, taking<br />
into account all property characteristic,<br />
plus an up to date knowledge of the<br />
performance specifications of all makes<br />
and models available.<br />
This is where the local company Heat<br />
Pump Guys can help. They are fully<br />
independent heat pump specialists, and are<br />
accredited agents for all top brands. They<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<br />
more convenient than a log burner as you<br />
just need to press a button. But how do you<br />
decide what is best? Choosing the right<br />
sized heat pump is key to ensuring optimum<br />
comfort levels. Every situation varies and<br />
it is therefore important to get professional<br />
advice from heat pump 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<br />
a very discreet way of heating your whole<br />
home to a constant temperature<br />
throughout.<br />
Firstly, you must select a heat<br />
pump that is suitable for the size<br />
of the space you wish to heat.<br />
Usually a site visit is the best<br />
way to ascertain this. Not only<br />
is the size of the area taken into<br />
consideration but also, insulation,<br />
building orientation, windows<br />
and ceiling space. There are a wide<br />
range of heat pumps available<br />
with different heating outputs<br />
so it is important to select the<br />
correct size for your requirements<br />
that will handle the job but not be<br />
unnecessarily overpowered.<br />
Secondly, the location of your heat<br />
pump is also extremely important. The<br />
cheapest installation is a back to back where<br />
the outdoor unit is positioned directly<br />
behind the indoor unit however this is<br />
not necessarily always the best option. It is<br />
vital that the indoor unit is positioned in a<br />
place that will not be constantly blowing on<br />
you. Also important, is the location of the<br />
outdoor unit. Most people do not want their<br />
outdoor unit sitting directly in their outdoor<br />
entertaining area or right outside their<br />
bedroom window.<br />
Choose a brand you can trust. Many<br />
brands have come and gone over the years<br />
but there are a number of manufacturers<br />
who provide reputable and reliable products.<br />
All brands vary in their energy efficiency,<br />
quietness of systems and price, so it depends<br />
on your application as to which will be most<br />
suitable. Major brands such as Panasonic,<br />
Fujitsu, Mitsubishi, Daikin, Toshiba and<br />
Hitachi are all reliable brands backed up by<br />
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<br />
also validate the manufacturers warranty.<br />
Other things to consider when choosing<br />
a heat pump are time clocks, ease of use of<br />
the remote controllers, air filtration and also<br />
wifi capabilities.<br />
Heating is a major investment<br />
in your home and it is vital to get<br />
the right advice.<br />
Enviro Master Ltd specialise<br />
in the supply, installation and<br />
servicing of all major brands<br />

and shelter. Combine this with heritage,<br />
charm, and character and you’ve got the<br />

architectural features of its era and adding<br />
modern style and convenience.<br />
Sunny, open plan living and dining areas<br />
both open through French doors to a deck<br />
with views toward the city and beyond. A<br />
gas fire and heat pump ensure year round<br />
comfort. A gorgeous modern kitchen<br />
adjoins the dining area with tons of bench<br />
and storage space and quality stainless<br />
steel appliances. On this level there are<br />
two double bedrooms and a single as<br />
well as one of two bathrooms, a laundry<br />
and guest toilet. Upstairs is a huge area<br />
currently furnished as the master suite but<br />
easily able to be a very large games room.<br />
Adjoining this space is a very generous<br />
bathroom with spa bath, separate shower<br />
and double vanity. Magnificent views from<br />
this area will provide wow factor day and<br />
night 24/7.<br />
There is a single garage at the top of the<br />

Winter is upon us and we have many buyers looking<br />
for their next home. If you are thinking of selling this<br />
year, now is the time to do it.<br />
There is a very short supply of homes on the market<br />
at present which means buyers have very little options<br />
to choose from.<br />
Kathryn and I believe that the time is right to market<br />
and sell your home. We would welcome a call from you<br />
to discuss selling your home, we may just have a buyer!<br />
HOMES NEEDED NOW -<br />
URGENT<br />
• First home buyers looking to<br />
$400,000<br />
• 4 bedroom homes Strown,<br />
Merivale up to 1.8 Million<br />
• 2 bedroom unit, Merivale up to<br />

Property for sale<br />
Buy ONE or buy TWO...<br />
1007A and 1007B Colombo Street, St Albans - Auction Wednesday 4th July <strong>2018</strong> (Unless Sold Prior) - Listing Numbers: ST7411 & ST7412<br />
2 bedrooms | 1 bathroom | 1 living room | 1 dining room | 1 car-garage | 1 off-street park<br />
Yes that’s right this is an exceptional opportunity for individual buyers, those looking to<br />
get on the property ladder or an investment. This proposal sits in a popular location that<br />
has seen significant regeneration in recent years due to the excitement of its proximity<br />
to the CBD and a gentle stroll to Edgeware Village. Both homes offer street frontage<br />
and presented in low-maintenance brick for ease of mind. Renovated throughout while<br />
injecting a contemporary flare, including retro glazing. A sun drenched open plan living,<br />
well-appointed kitchen and bathroom and two double bedrooms. A private and secure<br />
courtyard, single garage with off street parking adds to the appeal. With zoning for<br />
several sought after schools (including St Albans Primary, Heaton Intermediate, CGHS<br />
and CBHS), represents excellent value for money. Don’t miss this opportunity to secure<br />
your own slice of the city fringe our owners are focused on a sale and the properties are<br />
to be auctioned separately - hence this should be your call to action.<br />
Client Testimonials<br />
In May <strong>2018</strong> I decided to sell my property at 165 Westminster Street. Although I knew<br />
a number of real estate sales people (including friends) I decided to place my property<br />
with Peter Hampton from the St Albans office of Harcourts. I made this decision based<br />
on a number of factors. Firstly I researched Peters track record and found he was an<br />
achiever and was a proven professional person in all respects, secondly he worked<br />
and seemed to specialise in the area, thirdly he worked in conjunction with his partner,<br />
Katherine, which gave further impetus to the whole process.<br />
I certainly made the right decision. We achieved a most satisfactory sale, the<br />
communication between ourselves and Peter (and Katherine) was excellent and<br />
everything went really well.<br />
Above all these things, Peters enthusiasm and dedication to extract a successful sale was<br />
catching... on the tail of his attitude we all got fired up! And were carried along with “the<br />
ensuing real estate ride.”<br />
Thanks Peter & Katherine...Thanks Harcourts!!<br />
Nigel Keeley<br />
Peter and Kathryn both have a passion for property that’s obvious when you first meet<br />
them. Their enthusiastic approach and ability to see each property’s individual potential<br />
makes them a great team when it comes to selling your property.<br />

Wikipedia search ‘The Hamptons’ and you will discover pages about a group of villages<br />
and hamlets in Long Island, New York that form a popular seaside resort and one of the<br />
historical summer colonies of the northeastern United States: a community-oriented<br />
dwelling place for affluent families originally descended from salt-of-the-earth, potato<br />
farming community stock.<br />
Google search The Hamptons in Christchurch and you will come across a few parallel<br />
observations. A husband and wife team with a passion for Canterbury homes, villages<br />
and hamlets, dedicated to helping sometimes affluent and always salt-of-the-earth<br />
families in their quest to find community-oriented dwelling places.<br />
But let’s cut the sales flannel because that’s definitely not how Kathryn and Peter roll.<br />
On the contrary, if you’re looking for sound, well-researched property advice, without<br />
the hype then look no further. My family and I relocated here from Australia with no<br />
prior knowledge of the various neighbourhoods and an innate fear of buying a property<br />
on ground that might be susceptible to movement. The Hamptons proved to be our<br />
salvation….careful, considered and coherent counsel, always with a smile and delivered<br />
with a can-do approach to bespoke house viewing times and wine-inspired strategy<br />
sessions.<br />
The net outcome: we moved into our beautiful new family house in Strowan a few<br />
months ago and what we owe the bank pales in comparison to our debt of gratitude to<br />
Pete and Kathryn for helping us to find our dream home. I would be more than happy to<br />
hear from you if you need any more convincing of why to consider the Hamptons when<br />
thinking of buying or selling a property.<br />

he first time I woke up with a cold nose in my brand<br />
new home, I was shocked. How could this be? The<br />
cool, calm, collected one and I had planned for our<br />
home to be well insulated against Canterbury’s<br />
cold winters. Turns out, not well enough. We’d<br />
even assured a well-meaning friend we had ample<br />
insulation (yes, Duncan, you were right). I’ve worked out where we<br />
fell short in hindsight. Our home was designed by highly respected<br />
Christchurch architect the late Peter Beaven, for a magic little<br />
Port Hills site, where he planned to live in with his wife Lesley.<br />
Sadly Peter died before realising his plans. We bought them and<br />
employed Archology in Sydney, where we were living at the time, to<br />
prepare the construction drawings and specifications. Compared to<br />
Australia, the R values for insulation would have looked high. Our<br />
talented young builder, Sam McCarthy, would never have queried<br />
the levels because they were standard practice around town. So it<br />
wasn’t until we were living in the house and I consulted Council’s<br />
eco design advisor Julie Villard about how we could warm it up that<br />
we discovered, while we unwittingly thought we had exceeded New<br />
Zealand standard, we had merely met Code. And that ain’t going to<br />
cut it in our climate.<br />
Fortunately Julie had plenty of ideas on how we could improve<br />
the situation and we have easy access to our underfloor to top-up<br />
the insulation. Julie Villard, an architect from France, is on a mission<br />
to transform building best practice here and you can read about the<br />
groundbreaking ideas she’s applied to her own brand new build on<br />
page 20.<br />
I’ve shared the highs and lows of building with the other home<br />
builders and renovators I interviewed and, like Diane (page 36), would<br />
relish doing it again. I was struck by how all the home owners said<br />
what they most valued was the ability of their designer or builder to<br />
“really listen” to their wants and needs. I was also impressed by how<br />
much Christchurch people love a good garage! We’ve got some ideas<br />
for some top of their class cars to complement yours on page 81 and<br />
how to quickly establish a lawn on page 72.<br />
We review all the latest trends in everyone’s favourite room –<br />
the kitchen (page 48), and share an easy yet impressive recipe for<br />
entertaining friends in your fabulous new home on page 77.<br />
I hope Peter Beaven would be pleased with how the cool, calm,<br />
collected one and I realised his dream. Go chase yours people!<br />
Speaking to the NZ Institute of Architects about ‘bespoke<br />
architecture’ being a ‘minority pursuit’ not long before his death<br />
Peter said “I am going to try to prove that it’s possible to build<br />
modestly and cheaply with a little house for ourselves. It’s going to<br />
be sustainable and it’s going to be beautiful and it’s going to be just<br />
cheap – no more than an ordinary spec house. I’ll prove that it can<br />
be done, and it might be the last thing I prove.”<br />
