BEAUTIFUL BRIGHTON: This photo of a golden sunrise over the New Brighton Pier on Sunday was
captured by Linwood resident Allan Macala. On his days off, Mr Macala will often walk along the beach
at sunrise. The New Brighton Pier re-opened earlier this month following a 16-month, $8.5 million
earthquake repairs. Mr Macala said it was good the repairs had been completed as the pier is a historical
landmark.

A PETITION asking Parliament
to return Redcliffs School to its
former home has collected 128
signatures in two weeks.
Organised by Friends of
Redcliffs Park, the petition calls
for urgent legislation enabling the
school to reopen on its former
Main Rd site.
It follows Greater Christchurch
Regeneration Minister Megan
Woods’ announcement last
month she would fast track
changes to the city’s district plan
enabling the school’s relocation to
Redcliffs Park.
Friends of Redcliffs Park
spokesman Chris Doudney said
he expected the petition would
attract strong support.
“Our experience is a lot of people
have been very supportive of the
idea of not taking Redcliffs Park.
I think the majority of people in
Redcliffs and Sumner think it’s a
mistake; that the (Main Rd) school
site is the best in the district and the
school should go back there.

NOW IF that photo on the front page today
doesn’t make you want to go to the pier, then
nothing will.
It was taken on Sunday by Linwood
resident Allan Macala who often walks the
beach before sunrise.
The pier re-opened this month after a 16 month $8.5 million
repair.
Wet weather has kept the people away, but with the shortest day
now behind us, and crisp frosty mornings starting to bite, it all
looks good leading into spring.
Good to see work has started on the repair and strengthening
of earthquake-damaged Risingholme Hall in Opawa (page 3).
The hall is one of several significant buildings on the Cholmondeley
Ave community centre site, which was bequeathed to the
city council in 1944.

RESTORATION: The
Wood Brothers’ Mill
in Addington, the
city’s most significant
industrial heritage
site, is getting a multimillion
upgrade.
Historic mill gets makeover
THE WOOD Brothers’ Mill is
back in the frame to take the
title of the city’s most significant
large-scale former industrial
heritage site.
A mainstay of milling in
Addington from 1886, the site is
being reborn as a combination of
office and hospitality space and
grain store apartments with a
$7.6 million makeover.
Designed by architect J C Maddison
for the Wood brothers,
the four-storey mill building sits
adjacent to a two-storey grain
store in Wise St.
Initially steam-powered, the
six-bay roller mill was serviced
by the nearby rail lines, which
delivered grains to produce flour
and other cereal foodstuffs for
export and local consumption.
By the mid-1930s, the mill
produced the largest output in
the South Island – 33 sacks of
flour per hour. The mill ceased
production in the early 1970s.
Supported by a $900,000
city council heritage grant, the
earthquake-damaged “highly
significant” buildings have now
undergone an extensive heritagefocused
transformation, overseen
by the site’s developer, structural
engineer Michael King.
The mill site includes an open
space fronting onto Wise St.
It was originally a bowling
green for mill workers.
A conservation covenant
protects the space from development,
and underpins the landmark
value of the buildings.
City council heritage team
leader Brendan Smyth said both
the grain store and the mill
building are “very resilient structures,
with massive brick walls
and sizeable timber structural
members designed to take huge
loads”.
“The mill building was also
designed to withstand substantial
vibration from the milling process,”
he said.
“These two factors seem to
have enabled the buildings to
survive the earthquakes without
irreparable damage.”
The mill’s exterior walls are
triple to seven-brick thick and
the central interior columns are
crafted from Australian wood.
Quake repair work
for Risingholme
WORK HAS started on the
repair and strengthening
of earthquake-damaged
Risingholme Hall in Opawa.
The single-storey timber
framed hall suffered damage in
the February 22, 2011, earthquake.
Work began at the start of
this month and a plan is being
worked on to try and save an
English oak tree near the site.
Earthquake strengthening will
be carried and engineered steel
beams will be added to tie the
walls into the roof along with
bracing in the walls and ceilings.
The kitchen and toilets will
be refurbished and it will be
repainted. The restoration is
expected to finish in April.
A repair and partial rebuild
of the historic two-storey Risingholme
Homestead began in
February and is expected to be
complete in January.
The 153-year-old category 2
heritage building was damaged
in an arson attack in 2016.
Several archaeological finds
have been discovered in the
homestead since restoration
began, including newspapers
dating back to 1910 and pieces of
glass and china.
These have been removed
and will be investigated by an
archaeologist.
REPAIR: Opawa’s earthquake damaged Risingholme Hall is
undergoing strengthening work.

School site
petition
gains
traction
•From page 1
“It would not take long to
reoccupy. But I know that the
current school committee has
been forced to toe the Ministry
(of Education) line,’’ Mr Doudney
said.
Redcliffs School Board of
Trustees chairman Darren Fidler
said the terminology “toe the
line” was derogatory.
“All the board and wider
community has ever done is
do the best we can within the
limitations we’ve had,” Dr Fidler
said.
The petition will remain
open until July 23 when it
would be taken to Parliament
for consideration by a select
committee, Mr Doudney said.
The group is also awaiting a
response from the Ombudsman
after laying a complaint one year
ago.
They claim the MoE was
“negligent and wrong” in its
consideration of the background
issues prior to making a
recommendation to then-minister
Hekia Parata.

go home and recreate in their
own kitchens,” she says.
And with the latest in kitchen
innovations and products on
display, it’s a chance to get creative
in all aspects of life.
Said Star Media chief executive
Steve McCaughan: “I am
very excited about the new elements
we have introduced with
the addition of our free taste
section, new glossy Home and
Leisure magazine, plus fantastic
prizes to be won.”
Seminars are held throughout
each of the three days and
feature everything from starting
a renovation through to the

Awards for volunteers
• By Sarla Donovan
TENDING TO the needs of an
often-overlooked boat crew has
garnered civic recognition for
the Lyttelton Seafarers Centre.
The work of the centre’s
volunteers was recognised in
a special ceremony at the city
council offices.
Volunteer recognition awards
were presented to five groups
and 27 individuals from across
the city.
Having helped more than
10,000 seafarers in the last
three years, Seafarers Centre
volunteers co-manager Jess
Armstrong said she was “very
proud” her team of 21 had been
recognised for their hard work.
“Without them the seafarers
would be outside in the middle
of winter. They provide a
warm welcome and a place to
be. Without the volunteers, we
would not open our doors,” said
Mrs Armstrong.
Alongside practical assistance
with things such as cellphone
sim cards and phone top-ups,
they pass on donations of warm
winter jackets, hats, books and
food.

Fire rages, homes at risk
Water tank requirement labelled unfair
• By Sarla Donovan
PROPERTY OWNERS say a
requirement to provide water
tanks for firefighters is onerous
and unfair.
Under the Fire and Emergency
New Zealand code of practice,
a new house built in an area
without a reticulated water
supply must have an additional
45,000 litres of
stored water
available for
firefighting
purposes because
of being on a
restricted water
supply.
David
Griffiths
Geoff Ettrick
and Peter Reeves,
property owners
at Birdlings Flat, spoke to the
Banks Peninsula Community
Board about the water supply
requirements.
They said the cost and the
amount of space taken up by the
two tanks that were needed, was
more slanted to a “lifestyle block
scenario” than houses on an
urban-sized section.
Mr Ettrick estimated it would
take two tanks occupying about
17 sq m to provide sufficient
water.A 30,000 litre tank retails
for around $4600 and a 15,000
litre for around $3100.
“The whole thing is just bizarre,”
Mr Ettrick said. “At the end of
the day we’re being forced to
put storage there which is the
responsibility of the city council
or the Fire Service.”
They want a community-wide
approach to be taken in Birdlings
Flat, suggesting community
water tanks would be a cheaper,
more efficient option.
A FENZ spokesman said the
code of practice applied wherever
territorial authorities had
adopted it in their district plans,
but there was room for negotiation.
“The code provides for developers
and building owners to
engage with us and territorial
authorities to determine appropriate
needs and ensure they
are met. That means that when
houses are close enough and the
terrain permits, water tanks can
be shared.”
City council head of planning
and strategic transport David
Griffiths said the measure had
WATER: Property owners are

been introduced in 2015 after
the New Zealand Fire Service,
“through consultation under
stage one of the District Plan
review” asked that a water supply
for firefighting rule be included
for all residential zones.
The board has asked city
council staff to prepare a report
on the issue.

Lodestar Ave
solution delayed
• By Anan Zaki
A WIGRAM Skies resident
is angry after further delays
on operational guidelines
for the new traffic and
parking bylaw.
The bylaw, which would
allow heavy vehicles to be
banned from roads such
as Lodestar Ave came into
force in March. But the
bylaw needed operational
guidelines in order to
be used by community
boards.
Lodestar Ave homeowner
Wanda Waites felt residents
have been forgotten by the
city council.
“It’s taking too long and
it’s driving me nuts,” she
said.
Ms Waites plans to move
out of the area in the summer
because of the trucks
and other personal issues.
“They [truck drivers]
give me dirty looks, they
think it’s all because of me
because they have seen my
picture in the paper,” she
said.
The guidelines were first
expected to be finished
in mid May, before being
delayed for another two
weeks.
City council transport
operation manager Steffan
Thomas said that it is now
not expected until the end
of next month.
The delays were due to
staff focussing on the Long
Term Plan, he said.
When the bylaw was
passed Ms Waites felt optimistic
about the future of
Lodestar Ave, but because
of the delays, the feeling
has eroded away, she said.
Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton
Community Board
chairman Mike Mora said
the guidelines will be presented
to the city council’s
infrastructure, transport
and environment committee
next month, but did not
know an exact date.
“I can assure to all readers
that they are being
listened to,” Mr Mora said.
He admitted progress
had been slow but said
staff have been working to
finalise the document for
the past two months.

WORK ON a mega centre
in Hornby may not now
start for at least another
two years.
The city council
revealed on Friday
more consultation
may be needed for the
$35.7 million facility
after a hearings panel
recommended Denton
Park not be the site.
If Denton Park was given
the nod, work was likely to
have started this year.
Greater Hornby
Residents Association
chairman Marc Duff said
he was “surprised” that the
decision was made prior
to the official Denton Park
decision on July 6.
“From our residents
association perspective, we
would like to see if that two
year process can be sped
up in anyway, because a lot
of consultation has already
been done on the possible
sites,” he said.
Save Denton Park
chairman Mark Peters
said he was pleased to see
the city council appearing
to move on from Denton
Park, but was unsure
why another consultation
process is needed.
“It’s disappointing
that they are looking to
potentially punish the
residents of the southwest
and Hornby for saving
Denton Park and pushing
it back for two years,” he
said.
The city council needed
to look at the previous
consultation process to see
community views on the
mega facility, he said.
City councillor Vicki
Buck said two years was
needed to select a new
location for the mega
facility. An additional
$450,000 was budgeted for
the two years works, which
include detailed design.
“If you don’t go through
the due process, then
you’re open to judicial
review, which could
slow down the process
by another two to three
years,” she said.
If a new location is
chosen within the next
financial year, the funding
could be brought forward
by a year, Cr Buck said.
The Halswell-Hornby-
Riccarton Community
Board will make a
final decision on
the hearings panel
recommendation to not
build the facility at Denton
Park on July 6.

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

Kendo apprentice off to South Korea
Cashmere student in NZ team
• By Jacob Page
CASHMERE HIGH School
student Kai Edwards’ six years
of dedication to kendo have seen
him named as an apprentice in
the New Zealand team for the
world championships in Korea.
The 17-year-old from Spreydon
is one of three Cantabrians who
will be part of the team, with
Tania Butterfield in the women’s
team and Masa Matsunami
competing in the men’s team.
The world championships start
in September.
He will not compete in the
world champs unless required.
Kendo is a Japanese form of
fencing with two-handed bamboo
swords, originally developed
as a safe form of sword training
for the samurai.
“I’d done karate for seven
years before kendo but I was
starting to get bored of it and
I noticed the kids my age were
leaving,” he said.
“I’d looked at kendo and
thought it looked like fun and,
while I was initially intimidated
by all the shouting, my friends
were there and that got me
through the introduction.”
Edwards will have the same
role Matsunami had at the last
world championships three years
ago.
“As an apprentice, it’s my role
to support both the men’s and
women’s teams and to train with
them so that, when it is my turn
at the next world championships,
I’ll be used to the environment.”
New Zealand men’s coach
Blake Bennett said he was eager
to build depth in the squad, not
only for the event in Korea but
for the long term.
He said the men’s team is
ranks in the top 16 countries in
the world but they want to push
into the top eight.
Japan, Korea and the united
States are some of the traditional
heavyweights of the sport, while
Italy is the rising European
power.

MARTIAL ARTS: Masa Matsunami, Tania Butterfield and Kai Edwards will represent New Zealand
at the kendo world championships in Korea in September.
Tennis coach returns to Redcliffs club
• By Gordon Findlater
IT WILL be a homecoming
for new Redcliffs Tennis Club
head coach Jack Tiller when he
starts his new job next month
at the club he played for as a
junior.
Tiller, 20, will take on the role
on July 21 after spending the
last year in a coaching role at
Elmwood Tennis Club.
The position at Redcliffs
became available with the
departure of Evie Ruegg who
is travelling the world with her
husband. Ruegg has spent the
past four years growing the
club’s junior programme from
obscurity after the earthquake
to a now strong position with 16
interclub teams.
Tiller, who lives in Monks
Bay, first picked up a tennis
racket as a six-year-old at the
Redcliffs club before relocating
to Blenheim.
As a teenager, Tiller played
for Elmwood but still remained
involved with his childhood
club whenever possible and is
now excited to take on the head
coaching role.
“Redcliffs has always been a
big part of my tennis and when I
got a phone call to ask if I would
be keen on the role I happily said
yes,” said Tiller.
He recently spent a year at
Southeastern Oklahoma State
University in the United States. It
was there he caught the coaching
bug.
“Being over there you see so
many guys that are unreal at
tennis. The staff and coaching
there is great and what they told
me really clicked,” said Tiller.
“I realised it’s something I’d
really like to do, it’s cool to see
kids grow and develop new
skills.”
Tiller is currently studying
towards a sports coaching degree
at Canterbury University.
Redcliffs currently has 77 junior

Club after returning from

interclub players and 38 hot shot
participants.
Club president Sue Cooke
was thankful of departing
coach Ruegg for the position
she has left the club in going
forward. “She’s done a great job
and has contributed greatly to
the club, in particular with our
juniors, she will be missed,” said
Cooke. The club is planning on
a leaving event for Ruegg in the
coming weeks.

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.”
