Keown’s
gets his
wish –
Harewood
intersection
will be
upgraded
• By Sophie Cornish
OUTSPOKEN CITY councillor
Aaron Keown has got his wish –
the contentious Breens, Harewood
and Gardiners Rds intersection
will be upgraded.
Cr Keown said the news last
week was a “huge weight off his
shoulders” after campaigning to
upgrade the intersection for more
than two years.
Previously Cr Keown offered
$100 to anyone who could
come forward and name
another intersection in the city
without lights that has 10 lanes
converging.
A report with several options to
upgrade the intersection will go
before the Fendalton-Waimairi-
Harewood Community Board in
September.
In the mayor’s Long Term Plan
recommendations released last
week, Lianne Dalziel said city
council staff would report back to
the community board with one
preferred upgrade option.
However, in a meeting on
Friday, Cr Keown fought for an
amendment to the recommendation.

‘Disappointed’ board seeks MOE meeting
Bid to change
planned QE II
school zone
• By Sophie Cornish
THE PAPANUI-Innes
Community Board will invite
the Ministry of Education to
meet with it over the proposed
enrolment zones for Shirley
Boys and Avonside Girls’ High
Schools.
After writing
to the MOE
in May, the
community
board is
“disappointed”
by the
response, said
Ali Jones
chairwoman
Ali Jones.
The schools
will re-locate to a shared campus
at QE II Park next year.
The letter from the
community board to the MOE
outlined concerns that the
suburbs of Richmond and
Shirley were not included in the
new draft zone.
MOE deputy secretary sector
enablement and support Katrina
Casey replied on behalf of
Minister of Education Chris
Hipkins.
Her letter “acknowledged that
the post-quake period for people
in the Christchurch area has
been stressful, demanding
and challenging for many
families.”
It said there was a consultation
process, which was open to all
members of the public affected
by zone changes. Schools
were then required to make a
recommendation for a zone
change to the MOE.
Factors Ms Casey said were
being considered included current
and future student demographics,
potential changes to
residential areas, along with the
schools’ recommendation.
The community board will
write another letter, inviting Ms
Casey, MOE manager education
Canterbury Sean Wheeler and
director of education for Canterbury
Coralanne Child to meet
the board.
“As the local community
board, as a group that is well
connected in the community, we
were not invited to be part of the
consultation process . . . we still
want to address some issue that
that letter raises that we don’t
think have been satisfactory

answered,” said Ms Jones.
Other concerns the board will
address are the consultation
process and how it was carried
out during school holidays and
only in the school environments,
not beyond with the wider community.
“We haven’t stopped the conversation
there,” said Ms Jones.
Said board member Jo Byrne:
“There is a lot of people in our
wards that are absolutely devastated
by this.”
“Decisions about the major
high schools need to be
managed more publicly and
transparently.”

SPEED LIMIT CHANGES
The speed limit on Cranford St and
Main North Rd may change soon.
The Papanui-Innes Community
Board voted last week to reduce
the speed limit from 60km/h to
50km/h on the northern stretch of
Cranford St and Main North Rd
through to the Northcote Rd, Main
North Rd, QE II Drive intersection.
It comes after concerns about
conflicting speed limits at the
intersection.
CRANFORD ST PLANS
Cranford St may soon get even
busier with plans approved to build
a 24-unit residential complex.
Newport Seventeen Holdings Ltd
has been issued a resource consent
from the city council to begin
construction on a 2835 sq m site
between 165-173 Cranford St.
KENDAL AVE PARKING
Parked vehicles at the Kendal Ave
and Arlington St intersection,
Burnside, are limiting driver visibility,
forcing them to ‘nose out’ to
see other cars. Public concern over
the issue has led the Fendalton-
Waimairi-Harewood Community
Board to approve changes last week
which will see no stopping restrictions
installed on Kendal Ave, near
the intersection, to minimise the
problem.

Getting prisoners back on track
Belfast’s
Helen Murphy
writes about
working in
the prisoner
welfare and
rehabilitation
sector for 27
years, which recently led to
her becoming a member of
the New Zealand Order of
Merit
A FORMER partner’s time
behind bars was the catalyst
for a lifetime of service for
me to help former prisoners
reintegrate into society.
I understand the shame a
prisoner feels and also their
families as well.
I have spent the last 10 years
working for the Prisoners’ Aid
and Rehabilitation Society in
Christchurch.
Prisoners are often subject to
being degraded and told they
have no value in society.
Without help on the outside,
prisoners often find themselves
stuck in the system.
My latest work has involved
helping those forced to come
back to New Zealand from
Australia because of their
criminal past.
HELP: Helen Murphy has worked in the prisoner welfare and rehabilitation sector for 27
years.
A recent tightening of
regulations in Australia has
led to spiralling numbers of
people being deported, many
for apparently minor offences,
and PARS is group which helps
offenders returning to New
Zealand. I lead the Christchurch
branch of the organisation.
About 22 deportees have
arrived in Christchurch alone
since January and about 200
since 2014, when Australia
brought in legislation allowing
New Zealanders jailed for 12
months or more to be
deported.
The grief that these people
feel on their arrival is huge.
They’ve often been in Australia
since they were teenagers, and
here they are arriving in New
Zealand.
It’s a hugely different culture,
plus the grief of leaving families
behind makes it very difficult.
On a personal note, I
have lived in Belfast for nearly
43 years in the same house and
my three children grew up here
and went to Belfast Primary
School.
I was also a member of the
crew which helped in the
fight to keep the community
swimming pool open, and was
even a lifeguard for one season.
I have seen many changes
over the years in Belfast, and
the little village I first came to
live in has under gone a huge
transformation.
Readers respond to an
article about the Fendalton-
Waimairi-Harewood
Community Board granting
funding to Te Ora Hou
Otautahi
Clive Paris – I am writing
in support of Sam MacDonald’s
stance opposing funding of Te
Ora Hou and am surprised that
the other community board
members did not support
him.
I think the community board
has missed the point regarding
the funding of Te Ora Hou.
The mission of Te Ora Hou is
not in dispute and its aims are
meritorious and valuable to the
community it resides in.
However, where our
community board has erred is in
directing further funding to
this national based organisation.
Te Ora Hou has based in
Whangarei, Gisborne, Hastings,
Whanganui, Wellington and
Christchurch.

Since 2015, Te Ora Hou (Otautahi) has
received funding from the city council of
$246,108. That is ratepayer money. Now
the community board has just bumped
that figure to $266,108.
Why is this a local community board
issue now when in the past it has been
dealt with by city council and why is this
not an issue dealt with by Government?
Is this a guilt trip by the community
board and has it taken the easy way out
and made the grant? For the deputy
chairman Aaron Campbell to state
“there are no other options right now,
the Government is not in that space,”
when in fact it is exactly in that space and
has so stated that mental health issues,
housing and anti-social behaviour were
platforms for its election campaign.

No extra pollution monitoring
on Cranford St, Innes Rd – ECan
• By Sophie Cornish
ENVIRONMENT Canterbury
will not be looking into air
pollution concerns in the
Cranford St and Innes Rd area.
The Papanui-Innes Community
Board wrote to ECan
in May asking whether its air
quality monitoring station in
Coles Pl, St Albans, was a reliable
source of data on air quality in
the northern end of Cranford St.
A concerned St Albans
resident wrote to the board with
fears the area could become
heavily polluted when the
Christchurch Northern Corridor
opens. It is estimated to create a
30 per cent increase in traffic for
Cranford St and the surrounding
area.
The community board wants
the appropriate data logged so
when the CNC opens, there will
be data to compare it to.
ECan said a limited amount
of data was obtained by the
city council and New Zealand
Transport Agency in 2010 for the
CNC and Cranford St upgrade
resource consent.
“ECan will not be providing
any temporary air quality monitoring
of the Cranford St area
in the foreseeable future,” said
programme manager strategic
DIRTY AIR: ECan will not look into concerns over future air
pollution from the Christchurch Northern Corridor.
programmes Sam Elder.
Mr Elder said comparative
data is not necessary to identify
if standards are being exceeded.
As a result of the latest letter,
community board chairwoman
Ali Jones said her position on the
matter has changed.
“Having baseline readings
won’t achieve anything when
it comes to challenging any
exceedances. If there are exceedances
along that stretch (of road)
then they have to be remedied,
that’s just end of story,” she said.
The board plans to write back
to ECan, requesting the baseline
data recorded in 2010, so it can
have it on file.
ECan said the Coles Pl air
quality monitoring station is
designed to measure concentrations
of air pollutants and is not
designed to monitor a specific
street, although emissions on a
nearby street may be picked up.
Keown gets his wish
•From page 1
Cr Keown wants several
options included in the report,
and one has to include traffic
lights. His amendment was
approved and supported by city
councillor Jamie Gough.
The contentious intersection
sees 10 lanes converging and was
a popular topic in LTP hearings.
LTP submissions on the issue
came from the community board,
local school principals, pupils and
parents. Funding will come from
the LTP budget, which is set to be
confirmed today.
If the option selected by the
community board costs more
than is budgeted for in the LTP,
a further report will come back
to city council by the end of
October. The funding could

•From page 1
St Albans Pool and Pavilion
Group chairman Paul Somerville
was surprised to hear about the
funding, saying support from
the Papanui-Innes Community
Board helped to promote the
development.
“We weren’t expecting the city
council to put money in, but the
community board got behind
it and put it in their plan, they
budgets.
During the LTP hearings, Ms
Dalziel said installing traffic
lights may not be the answer
to make the intersection safer.
She said often lights can bring
an undesired outcome, making
the intersection busier and, as a
result, potentially more unsafe.
Cr Keown believes the public
wants traffic lights.
“Staff could come back with
something marvellous and
brilliant that the public have
never even thought of. But
I haven’t seen anything like
that yet. I haven’t heard any
suggestions that I think the
public would like.”
He believes now is the time
to motivate the community to
engage with the board about what
they want for the intersection.

own submission. It was brilliant
of them,” he said.
Mr Somerville said the group
will continue to raise money. If
it raises a sufficient amount, it
hoped the city council might consider
advancing the money.

Arterial
design
delayed
• By Sophie Cornish
THE PAPANUI-Innes
Community Board has delayed
its decision on the final design for
the Northern Arterial extension.
At a meeting last week, the
board decided to table the decision
and will meet with city
council staff to go over issues it
has with the designs.
Board chairwoman Ali Jones
said the board needed more time
to make a decision as it still had
several questions.
“It felt like we were potentially
going to go around in circles and
it was better to lay it out on the
table.”
The decision involves the
Northern Arterial extension, the
northern part of the Cranford
St upgrade (the section between
McFaddens Rd north to the
Northern Arterial junction), the
Cranford-Innes intersection and
surrounding streets.
The board will meet with city
council staff behind closed doors
to discuss questions it has.
“It won’t be a public forum
. . . we are still trying to sort out
some of the information and it’s
not fair to put information that
hasn’t been confirmed out into the
public arena.
David Hall
IMPROVING social
connections within the
community has led two
volunteers to be recognised for
their efforts.
Bishopdale Community
Trust’s David Hall and Age
Concern’s Douglas Shepherd
were two of 27 people and five
groups to receive awards at Volunteer
Canterbury’s volunteer
recognition awards last week.
Award recipients were nominated
by community not-forprofit
organisations.
In his nomination,
it said Mr Hall is one
of the longest serving
members of the
Bishopdale Community
Trust.
“His knowledge of
the trust, its activities
and its history is of huge
value in ensuring that Sundbye
Community House effectively
delivers its services to the local
community,” said the nomination.
Mr Hall set up the
trust’s computer systems
and uses his specialist IT
skills to maintain them,
including undertaking
staff training.
Mr Shepherd’s contribution
to Age Concern in
Papanui since 2009 has
been “invaluable” said his nomination.
He is a volunteer driver for the
senior citizen group, which ensures
regular attendance
at social outings for those
who otherwise couldn’t
get there.
“Doug is reliable and
dedicated, often assisting
at short notice, and
always with a sense of
humour. He also assists
with delivery of the
organisation’s magazine
and at home, with his wife
Margaret, hosts some of the Age
Concern seniors for afternoon

Isleworth pupils up
SCHOOLS
close with longfin eels
• By Sophie Cornish
EVERY TIME we put the brakes
on or are cleaning our cars
in the driveway, we could be
putting pollutants into streams
which may affect the wildlife.
That’s what year 5 and 6
Isleworth School pupils are
learning through a project
called ‘Te Tuna Tāone – Urban
Eel’.
Run by the Working Waters
Trust and Enviroschools Canterbury,
the pupils learnt about
longfin eels.
Trust project manager Sophie
Allen said the project focuses
on helping improve the quality
of stormwater and the stream
habitats where urban eels live.
Ms Allen said the north-west
area of the city would have had
a lot of clean springs for the species
in the past.
“Now sadly, it is listed as ‘at
risk-declining’ by the Department
of Conservation species
classification system, and our
urban eels have pollutants coming
into the streams such as
pesticides, zinc from unpainted
galvanised roofs, and detergents
from washing your car on your
drive.”
Ms Allen said many people
don’t realise the water draining
from roofs and roads is going
UP CLOSE LOOK: Isleworth School pupils got to see longfin

into streams.
The pupils visited the Styx
Mill Conservation Reserve last
week where Ms Allen said they
“squealed in delight” seeing the
eels up close.
“The important next step will
be for the pupils to choose actions
they wish to undertake to
help these local longfin eels.”
Some ideas for actions from
the pupils include planting
native plans along streams,
creating artwork around gutters
to tell people they drain into
streams, and becoming local
stormwater pollution detectives.
Their actions could also
include creating special housing
for eels called ‘tuna townhouses’,
similar to those in the Avon
River.
GLOBAL: A Selwyn House team placed third in an international
problem solving competition with their initiative to get people
using cycleways.
Problem-solvers US win
• By Sophie Cornish
SELWYN HOUSE pupils
have taken their Let’s Bike
Christchurch initiative to the
United States to finish third in
an international problem-solving
competition.
A team of nine pupils travelled
to La Crosse, Wisconsin to
compete in the future problemsolving
international conference.
The team was third in the middle
division of the community
problem-solving section. They
were required to find an issue in
the community and work find a
solution.
Stemming from a class project,
the group of year 7 and 8 pupils
wanted to promote the city’s cycleways
by creating bike cut-outs,
which are then decorated and
hidden in places along the cycle
routes.
For the competition, the team
had to create a written report,
video and take part in an interview.
Previously the team took the
idea to the city council’s infrastructure,
transport and environment
committee.
Those who find the bike cutouts
while cycling can upload a
photo of themselves holding it
to social media with the hashtag
#letsbikechch for a chance to win
prizes.
The pupils drew inspiration for
their project from the Pokemon
Go app and a public art project in
2014 where 99 giraffe sculptures
were placed around the city.

Christchurch Intermediate
Schools
Specialists in Year 7 and Year 8 Education
OPEN NIGHTS 2018
Intermediate schools target the needs of
early adolescent Year 7 & 8 students -
11-13 year olds. These two-year, co-educational
schools are in many ways ideal environments
for students to begin their adventures into
adolescence.
Early adolescence is a unique and special time
of immense physical, intellectual, emotional
and social development. These changes
create specific needs and challenges that are
significantly different from the needs of younger
children or older adolescents.
An intermediate school can support your Year 7 &
8 child in ways that include but are not limited to:
• The staff are all focussed on the needs of
early adolescents and teach in these schools
because they establish strong relationships
and particularly enjoy working with Year 7 & 8
students. They are highly qualified, experienced
and skilled teachers of early adolescent
students, who ensure pastoral, social and
emotional needs are well supported.
• The resources are all designed and acquired
to meet the needs of this age group - age
Intermediates are exciting places for students to
begin their adventure into adolescence. In addition
to providing a rich, age and stage, middle-yearsspecific
curriculum in a stimulating, challenging and
rewarding environment, intermediates cater for many
interest groups and clubs.
It is not surprising that New Zealand and overseas
research concludes that the quality of teaching is
one of the most significant factors influencing how
well students learn at school. Given that quality
teaching occurs in most New Zealand schools
regardless of their type, it’s only natural to consider
other factors that might make a difference for early
adolescents.
The young people at intermediates are changing
rapidly – physically, emotionally and socially.
Intermediates focus solely on this age group and
are well positioned to meet their needs. A mix
of specialist and home room teachers helps to
provide the choices, challenge, love for practical
activities and academic rigour in the students’
learning. Resourcing, both human and physical, that
is developed deliberately to meet early adolescent
student needs, helps to build self esteem, assist
students to develop and find strengths and links
learning with career aspirations. Teachers who are
focussed solely on the middle years are able to work
collaboratively to provide level-appropriate engaging
appropriate experiences, opportunities and
challenges are planned for and provided.
• Leadership development focuses on
opportunities for students to develop the
important skills associated with leading their peers
- people their own age.
• Secure and supportive yet challenging
environments are provided to support students
to develop their independence.
• Students thrive on the opportunity to step up.
• Specialist teaching opportunities enable
students to receive age appropriate and
challenging learning in technology, science,
performing arts and visual arts.
• Significant home group environments support
strong literacy and numeracy programmes
differentiated in creative ways to meet students’
individual needs - all students are extended
and the focus is on accelerating progress.
The intermediate schools in Christchurch work
closely together to collectively provide a wide
range of extracurricular opportunities for students
in sporting, cultural and academic contexts.
programmes that connect learning to students’ lives
and interests and provide challenge for all students
to achieve to the best of their ability.
Current intermediate school students list these
points:
1. “There are more children of my own age here
because our school takes all the year sixes from a
few different schools and they come to one school.
And because we’ve got bigger numbers of pupils
we can have more sports teams and … there’s
something for everyone” Y8 child
2. “Our school has different specialist teachers for
subjects like music art, P.E. and technology, so we
get used to that – which is good preparation for
secondary school” Y7 girl
3. “At intermediate school everything is for our two
years (age group).” Y8 girl
4. “I like that we don’t have to look out for little
children. That was neat at our old (primary) school
but it’s nice to just have our own age here. Y7 boy
5. “It’s good that we don’t have big secondary kids
here. We can worry about them when we’re older…
and then we’ll be big too. Y8 boy

Currie steps closer
ATHLETIC: St Andrews College goalkeeper Blair Currie hopes
she can push her claims for a spot in the New Zealand under-17
World Cup team,
PHOTO: ST ANDREW’S COLLEGE
to football goals
• By Jacob Page
ST ANDREW’S football
captain Blair Currie knows
making the New Zealand
under-17 football talent ID
squad gets her one step closer to
her 2018 goals.
The 17-year-old goalkeeper is
eager to force her way in to the
national squad for the under-17
World Cup in Uruguay in
November.
Then she wants to pursue
a football scholarship in the
United States or Europe.
“It’s such a thrill to be named
in this squad,” she said.
“It’s something I’ve been
working towards for a very long
time.
“This gets me a step closer
to the World Cup and one day
playing for the Football Ferns.
Currie is one of four
Canterbury players named in
the squad with Macey Fraser,
Jayda Stewart and Marisa van
der Meer also getting their
chance.
Currie, who transferred to
Cashmere Technical from
Waimakariri United at the start
of the season, said she initially
played the outfield as a six-yearold
after spending a season
trying rugby.
“I used to watch my dad play
masters on the weekend so
thought I’d give it a try.”
It wasn’t until she was 13
when she gave goalkeeping her
full focus.
“I’d always ask the coaches if
I could give it a go and I really
loved it when the goalkeeper
was away,” she said. “Eventually
I just did it all the time.”
Currie is also part of the
Mainland Pride wider training
squad. An opportunity to train
with the best senior players in
the region was something she
thrived on.
“There’s always plenty to
work on but I have training
most days after school so it
gives me a chance to really
improve.”
The under-17 squad will have
more training sessions together
before the World Cup squad is
announced before November.
Wilson earns bronze at Oceania champs
• By Jacob Page
THE DISCOVERY of his dad’s
old table tennis bat in the depths
of the family garage when he
was seven led Alex Wilson to his
passion for the sport.
The 17-year-old St Andrew’s
College student made the most
of his New Zealand
under-18 table tennis
call-up with two
bronze medals in two
events in Rarotonga.
Wilson finished
third in doubles at the
Oceania Championships
and then backed
that up with another
medal in the Cook
Islands Open.
“It’s a team that I’ve
trialled for in the past and
always been part of the wider
squad but to be part of the team
itself was a fun experience.
“I felt like I was progressing
well over time and my overall
game was getting better and
I thought this year, with some
of the older players moving on,
that I could make the team.”
Alex Wilson
During the January to
September competition season,
Wilson trains five days a
week at the Canterbury Table
Tennis Association’s facility on
Blenheim Rd.
He also plays for the Lincoln
University club once a week.
Wilson said after playing
against his dad initially
to see if he liked the
sport, he soon realised
he was hooked.
“Dad helped me try
it out and I’ve been
playing ever since,”
he said. “I’ve always
enjoyed how global the
sport is - to me, there
aren’t many countries
in the world where you
can go too and play.”
Wilson said his
university studies next year
were likely to affect the amount
of time he could devote to the
sport, but he was keen to keep
playing.
“This is my last year in the
junior ranks so from next year
I’ll be playing in the open grade
against men.”

PROMINENT Cantabrians
have given a mixed response to
the possible futuristic look of
Cathedral Square.
Plans for what the Square
could look like were released
by Regenerate Christchurch
yesterday after seven years of
debate and controversy over the
slow progress of the rebuild.
It includes three covered
pavilions, which would have
a “lattice-style” translucent
roof, which could host markets
and other events.
FUTURISTIC: Plans released yesterday show what Cathedral Square could look like.
The long-term vision, which is

A CON man who tells his
intended victims he will harm
their families if they don’t pay up
may face a bigger problem than
the law – gangs.
Police have received 19 complaints
from Christchurch people
targeted by the sinister scam. It
involves phone
calls and texts to
victims who are
told the caller is
from the Mongrel
Mob, Highway 61
or Black Power.
Pay up or your
family members, Greg
including elderly Newbold
parents, will be
attacked, the caller says.
But it appears the con man is
not connected to the gangs, just
using their names to put fear into
the intended victims.
Canterbury University criminologist
Greg Newbold said yesterday
the gangs would be “filthy”.
“All I can say is he’s got a death
wish,” he said.
“They will be absolutely p***ed
off. Anybody who impersonates
a gang member is committing a
serious crime against the gang.”
Prof Newbold said the perpetrator
could get a “hiding” for that
alone.

CELEBRATING
OUR SUCCESS
• By Bridget Rutherford
PROMINENT Cantabrians
have given a mixed response to
the possible futuristic look of
Cathedral Square.
Plans for what the Square
could look like were released
by Regenerate Christchurch
yesterday after seven years of
debate and controversy over the
slow progress of the rebuild.
It includes three covered
pavilions, which would have
a “lattice-style” translucent
roof, which could host markets
and other events.
The long-term vision, which is
estimated to cost between $60-
$80 million, aims to bring people
back into the area, through a
series of interconnected public
spaces.
The vision for the Square also
includes Cathedral Gardens
with trees and water features,
Post Office Place with events
and meeting spaces, and Library
Plaza with other people-friendly
areas.

A CONVICTED killer is back
behind bars after a spectacular
crash while allegedly fleeing
police.
John Oliver Jamieson’s Subaru
Forester crashed through the
Rolleston dog park fence on
Saturday.
A spear-like fence post
smashed through the window

woman in the passenger seat.
Miraculously Jamieson and the
woman were unhurt.
He had earlier been recorded
driving at 180km/h on State
Highway 1.
A cut-down rifle was later
found by police in the vehicle.
Startled dog walkers said
Jamieson ran a short distance
from the vehicle before stopping
to see if the woman in the vehicle
was okay.

he was apprehended.

Big chance for teen touch referee
SPORTS
• By Jacob Page
CHRIST’S COLLEGE’S Will
Hutchinson will officiate at the
touch rugby youth World Cup in
Malaysia in August.
The 18-year-old will be joined
by fellow Cantabrian Cameron
Wootton in the nine-strong Kiwi
squad.
Hutchinson started refereeing
as a 12-year-old when a friend of
his mum’s asked if anyone knew
of someone who could referee
social touch rugby games.
He is now ranked No 13 in the
country.
“I love the sport and the friendship
that comes from it. This is a
chance to push myself to make
the open World Cup,” he said.
“The sport has allowed me to
travel internationally, largely for
free, and those opportunities are
one of the great things about the
sport.”
He said he was looking forward
to experiencing the international
flavour of play and it has been a
ACTION: Christ’s College’s
Will Hutchinson will look to
improve on his national touch
rugby referee ranking of 13 in
Malaysia in August.

strong motivator for him to work
hard on his preparation and fitness
over the winter months.
Wootton, 18, started refereeing
four years ago and has since
earned his level four badge, the
highest on offer for an official.
The Lincoln High student has
controlled games at the junior,
secondary school and open
national level, as well as the Australian
juniors.
Wootton said this would be a
major step-up.
“It’s going to be a lot of fun to
be out there with a whole lot of
new countries, new styles and being
able to see where I stack up,”
he said.
Another positive of the
appointment is that some of
Wootton’s mum’s family lives in
Malaysia, which means a family
reunion is in the works.
He said as he has risen through
the ranks, he has a new found
appreciation for how fast the
game is.
“It makes you appreciate the
level of skill on display and
makes me work hard at my fitness
to keep up,” he said.
Wootton said he would like to
gain an appointment at the open
World Cup next year and he saw
this trip as an opportunity to
prove he was up to that level.
The duo both agreed the sport
could do with more young referees,
especially as they enter the
open ranks for the first time in
the coming months,

Go along to the Bishopdale YMCA on Friday night at 7pm for a free
viewing of the movie Dominion. The venue can hold up to 60 people so
feel free to bring along friends and family too. Dominion is a documentary
that explores the six primary facets of human and animal interaction –
companion animals, wildlife, scientific research, entertainment, clothing
and food – and questions the morality and validity of our dominion over
the animal kingdom. This feature-length film contains the most recent and
highest-quality footage from hundreds of investigations across Australia.
Gold coin donations will be accepted.

SECONDARY SCHOOL SELECTION
State of the art campus opens next year
Construction of the new campus for
Avonside Girls’ and Shirley Boys’ High
Schools is progressing rapidly with
opening on track for 2019.
The new campus will feature a Performing
Arts Centre with a 750-seat theatre and a
100-seat theatre, a hockey turf, four sports
fields, three indoor gymnasiums, a café,
and a large library and learning centre.
Both Avonside Girls’ High School
Principal Sue Hume and Shirley Boys’
Headmaster John Laurenson are excited
by the progress.
“You can finally see that all we have been
talking about and dreaming about is taking
shape. We will be onsite with our students,
staff and community making the most of
all of the fantastic new facilities before we
know it,” says Sue Hume.
John Laurenson says the progress is
impressive.
“We went through the site recently and
it was actually a little emotional to stand
in what will be our new school for the first
time - it signals the end of all the hard times
the earthquakes brought. Already you can
see this will be a very well-resourced and
impressive campus.”
The campus is due to open in Term
Two of 2019. It will be the first time in
New Zealand’s modern history that two
well established and successful single sex
schools are being rebuilt side by side. Both
schools will retain their single sex identity,
providing learning tailored to boys and
girls and continuing to develop their
unique values.
John Laurenson says the move has
enabled the schools to offer students more.
“Because we’re building together, we’ve
been able to build bigger and better
facilities.”
Sue Hume says being side by side will also
enable better educational opportunities.
“We’ll collaborate on teaching
some senior subjects, so we can offer
students wider choice and there’s also
the opportunity to work together on
co-curricular opportunities – such as
productions, and sports competitions.
This move will increase the opportunities
we can offer our students – both in and out
of the classroom.”

campus go to www.newcampus.nz

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