CITY COUNCILLORS David 

East and Glenn Livingstone have 

pledged to fight against the annual 

New Brighton 

fireworks event 

being taken away 

from the pier. 

They have told 

the Pegasus Post 

they will work 

hard to retain the

the area.

David East 

It comes after the event has come 

under scrutiny from the city council 

as part of a city wide review of all 

council-run events. 

It confirmed last week the event 

would go ahead in November, and 

if there were to be any changes, they 

would not be implemented this 

year. 

Cr East said he would be debating 

strongly and working hard to 

persuade other city councillors of 

the merit and worth of retaining a 

display on the coast.

from the editor’s desk 

WE’VE PUT David East and Glenn 

Livingstone on record this week: They have 

pledged to fight any attempt to move the 

fireworks display from New Brighton. 

You wouldn’t expect anything less from 

the ward’s two sitting councillors. Now it’s 

black and white in the Pegasus Post there’ll be no wriggle room 

for them - not that I am suggesting they would try that. 

As far as Pegasus Post is concerned the Guy Fawkes display 

must stay in New Brighton. 

Murmurings from council staff that there are traffic issues as 

we reported last week are in my view a red herring. There are 

traffic issues everywhere with big events. 

Clearly the city council is planning/scheming to move this 

great event. 

Don’t let them!

Waterfront consent no precedent 

• By Sarla Donovan and Georgia 

O’Connor-Harding 

AN OUTCOME allowing a 

property to be built in Redcliffs 

is unlikely to help Southshore 

and South New Brighton 

residents struggling to get 

resource and building consents. 

An independent hearings 

panel has granted Redcliffs 

section owner Wendy Gilchrist 

resource consent to build on a 

waterfront site in Main Rd, after 

a year-long wait. 

It is a small win in an ongoing 

saga where coastal residents living 

in the city council’s High Flood 

Management Plan area are facing 

difficulties obtaining resource 

consent to extend their homes or 

build on empty sections. 

But Coastal- Burwood Community 

Board deputy chairman 

Tim Sintes said he does not 

believe the decision has set a 

precedent for others in the same 

situation. 

He said not a lot of people can 

afford to through an independent 

hearings panel process and 

there is no clear path moving 

forward. 

The hearing panel said Mrs 

Gilchrist’s consent was an exception 

and “cannot in any way 

create a planning precedent for 

applications on sites in other 

HOT TOPIC: About 100 people, including Southshore and 

South New Brighton residents packed into the Redcliffs 

Bowling Club to discuss difficulties they are facing in getting 

consents to extend their property. 

parts of the Residential Unit 

Overlay.” 

But following the decision, city 

council acting head of resource 

consents Andy Christofferson 

wrote in a memorandum to 

Mayor Lianne Dalziel the panel’s 

ruling would be “valuable in 

shaping city council officers 

thinking on this matter going 

forward.” 

It came a day after more than 

100 residents met with Christchurch 

Coastal Residents United to 

hear about issues being faced by 

coastal property owners when 

trying to get resource and building 

consents. 

The CCRU is made up 

of coastal residents and experts. 

The meeting looked at how 

1486 sites in a Restricted Unit 

Overlay within the High Flood 

Hazard Management Area are 

being treated by city council 

planners. 

The CCRU believes a restricted 

discretionary activity rule, 

recommended by the replacement 

District Plan independent 

hearings panel, was left out 

when the plan was finalised last 

year. 

Without the discretionary 

rule, under the District Plan new 

developments or intensification 

of land use in the High Flood 

Management Plan area is to be 

avoided. 

Mr Sintes, who attended the 

meeting, said it was a very good 

meeting and it is going to continue 

lobbying to resolve the issue. 

Last month Labour MPs Ruth 

Dyson, Duncan Webb and Poto 

Williams met with members of 

CCRU and Linwood-Central- 

Heathcote Community Board 

member Darrell Latham to discuss 

the problem and a potential 

remedy. 

Ms Dyson said after that 

meeting they had agreed to do 

further investigations before 

making a decision on “what 

intervention, if any, is necessary 

or appropriate.” 

Linwood-Central-Heathcote 

Community Board member 

Darrell Latham said he wanted 

Greater Christchurch Regeneration 

Minister Megan Woods 

to use her powers under the 

Christchurch Regeneration Act 

to fast track changes to the city’s 

district plan.

Brighton fireworks 

fight starts 

•From page 1 

He said the items he would 

be stressing is the event makes 

for great viewing, all fireworks 

land in the sea, making it easy 

to clean up and no one is at risk 

of being hit, he said. 

“This has been an integral 

part of the event programme of 

the east,” he said. 

Cr Livingstone said the fireworks 

should stay. 

“The question has been raised 

before over safety concerns but 

my view is wherever you hold 

the fireworks there is going to 

be safety concerns that need to 

be addressed anyway.” 

He said he suspects council 

would be faced with a unanimous 

resolution from the Coastal- 

Burwood Community Board to 

keep the event where it is.

John Filsell said last 

week for a number of years it 

has received feedback on traffic

But Cr East said while there 

are difficulties for traffic exiting

compounded by ongoing roadworks.

•From page 1 

After reading an article earlier 

this year on Mrs Hayes’ 100th 

birthday, Ms Smith sent her a 

birthday card and wrote to her 

asking if she was well enough 

on the day, could she go to the 

ceremony. 

She said the journey the school 

had been through was unique. 

“I feel an immense sense 

of pride in the journey of the 

school and what they are now 

achieving,” she said. 

In 2007, Ms Smith encouraged 

its board of trustees to apply 

for the Ministry of Education 

National Building Replacement 

Funding programme to rebuild 

buildings dating back to the 

1940s. 

The February 22, 2011, 

earthquake not only damaged 

the school hall but rafted two 

other classroom blocks under 

construction and severely 

damaged the school grounds and 

car parks with liquefaction. 

Due to the school’s rapid 

roll growth, it is awaiting 

construction of a fourth 

classroom block. 

On the day of the earthquake 

the school had about 185 pupils 

before it went down to 125 in 

about a week. It is now sitting at 

305. 

Ms Smith said the pupils have 

never been in a school hall and 

it was significant teaching them 

about special occasions, the role 

of the governor-general and the 

commonwealth. 

She said it was an “amazing 

occasion” to have Dame Patsy 

and Sir David attend. 

But it was not the only 

milestone acknowledged – it 

announced its new school name 

gifted by Ngai Tahu. 

From next year the school will 

officially be known as Whitau 

School. 

Whitau means the purest 

and raw form of flax fibre and 

is strong and resilient – boding 

with the school’s vision and 

values. 

Ngai Tahu believes the flax 

grew abundantly in the north 

Linwood area of the school 

giving it both a historical and 

metaphorical association to 

the school and its learning 

model.

SOUTHSHORE residents 

are fed up over inefficient 

stormwater drains filling up 

when it rains. 

At issue is rainwater being 

unable to flow out from the 

stormwater drains on parts of 

Rocking Horse Rd to the Southshore 

estuary. 

This is due to the pipe running 

out to the estuary being buried 

which causes the gutters on parts 

of Rocking Horse Rd to overflow 

with rainwater. 

It has been an ongoing problem 

for about six years. 

It was noted at a recent 

Coastal-Burwood-Community 

Board meeting there were concerns. 

The city council has received 

five complaints about surface 

flooding on the road in the past 

year. 

City council land drainage 

manager Keith Davison said 

PROBLEM: Stormwater drains on parts of Rocking Horse Rd are filling up when it rains due to the 

main pipe running to the estuary being buried. 

drainage along Rocking Horse 

Rd is challenging given the low 

lying nature of the land. 

“The city council will continue 

to maintain the outfalls and pipe 

networks servicing Rocking 

Horse Rd. Temporary pumps 

will continue to be deployed 

when required,” he said. 

Deputy chairman Tim Sintes 

said he gets “annoyed” because 

it is often viewed as a flooding 

issue when the problem is the 

stormwater cannot get out of the 

drainage system properly because 

it is not working properly. 

He said the city council bringing 

a pump down when there is a 

storm or bad weather is a “Band- 

Aid fix.” 

“This is nuisance flooding that 

has gone on for too long. The 

gutters are filling up with rain 

because the water can’t get out 

through a system that can’t operate 

efficiently,” he said. 

His views were backed by

Poor drains upset Southshore residents 

When it 

rains, it 

floods 


Rocking Horse Rd resident 

Warwick Schaffer, who said, the 

city council hiring a pump every 

time the street is full of water 

was a “ridiculous solution.” 

He said the gutters overflow 

with every little bit of rain, 

which is a “real pain.” 

Offshore and Coastal Engineering 

Ltd managing director Gary 

Teear said from what he had observed, 

he thinks the pipe running 

into the estuary along with other 

pipes on the road have a rubber 

duckbill valve at the end of it. 

“You have this pipe down at 

the estuary and you don’t want 

the water coming up the pipe, 

so when there is pressure on the 

estuary side the duckbill is shut. 

Mr Teear said when there is 

water pressure on the inside of 

the pipe, the valve should open. 

But he said because the estuary’s 

pipe and valve is so large, 

it takes a lot of pressure to open 

which was why rainfall was not 

opening it. He said possibly 

a number of smaller duckbill 

valves are needed like a manifold, 

which doesn’t require the 

same rainfall pressure to open.

artistic and digital talents, then this outstanding, 

FREE, entry level course has just been announced

much into digital technology.” 

“This FREE six-month Trainme course, combines

towards NCEA level 1 or 2.” Says Taylor. 

“NCEA results will depend on how many credit 

they bring to the course to start with, but as it’s a fun 

subject, it won’t feel like school at all.” 

Successful Graduates from this programme could

Special medal for 

Waimairi golfer 

• By Jacob Page 

WINNER: Waimairi Beach golfer, Allison Doell will 

be presented with the Coronation Medal after she 

won the national links competition. 

WAIMAIRI Beach 

golfer Allison Doell was 

surprised as anyone when 

she won the Coronation 

Medal. 

The medal was presented 

to the New Zealand 

Ladies Golf Union by 

the Ladies Golf Union in 

1907 to commemorate 

the Coronation of King 

Edward VII. 

The medal, first played 

for in 1908, is a silver division 

award in the national 

home links competition. 

It is played for by 

women with a handicap 

between 0-18. 

The competition is a 

compilation of national 

club results where women’s 

golfers play on their 

home turf, and their score 

is adjusted to account for 

their playing handicap 

before being compared to 

other players, both in the 

district and nationally. 

Doell’s club played their 

Coronation Medal round 

in April and she shot 81, 

which was adjusted to a 

63 nett. 

Now that all other 

participating clubs have 

played their round, Doell 

was crowned the winner, 

something she was elated 

about. 

“To be honest I’d forgotten 

about it and when 

I saw the email come 

through I thought it was 

an award the whole club 

had won and it wasn’t until 

I received another email 

I read that it was for me,” 

she said. 

“It’s an amazing feeling, 

like winning lotto.” 

Doell, who plays off an 

eight handicap when on 

form, will be presented 

with the medal later this 

year at the end of the 

season. 

Doell, who lives in 

Harewood has been playing 

at the Waimairi Beach 

club for more than 35 

years after she moved to 

Christchurch from Cheviot 

to work in the city. 

She said while she only 

gets to play once a week, 

she said it was a privilege 

to play a good or bad 

round. 

“I don’t practice often,” 

she said. “When I have 

time to play that’s what I 

love to do. 

“When I shot that round 

PEGASUS POST 

of 81, I couldn’t wait to get 

back out on the course and 

play again,” she said. 

“Even when it’s not going 

well, I’m still grateful 

for the chance to have 

some exercise and walk in 

the sun and I often think 

of all the ladies I used to 

play with who can’t play 

golf any more and I think 

I’m lucky.” 

Doell said while there 

were many closer golf 

courses to her home, she 

would always remain loyal 

to Waimairi Beach. 

“The club has been good 

to me and even through 

the earthquakes we still 

have a very nice course out 

there with great people,” 

she said. 

“It’s a very technical 

course and one that 

requires a lot of thought 

and skill and that’s what 

I like.”

THOMSON Park’s 

$400,000-plus makeover 

is open for feedback. 

Under the 

redevelopment, the city 

council has proposed 

to revitalise the New 

Brighton park area, 

boosting safety and 

accessibility and making 

the park more user 

friendly with the addition 

of several features. 

The draft plan includes 

a new full basketball court 

and picnic area, along 

with a sealed car park 

“We aim to enhance this 

popular space, ensuring 

the park and facilities 

best meet community 

needs in a safe and 

open environment,” city 

council community parks 

manager Al Hardy said. 

“We welcome the local 

community’s feedback 

and suggestions as 

the reinvigoration of 

New Brighton and the 

surrounding areas steps 

up.” 

A new entrance further 

along Marine Parade and 

the installation of security 

barriers to prevent nighttime 

use are key elements 

of the safety upgrade. New 

post and cable fencing is 

also proposed, along with 

the replacement of several 

trees that are in poor 

condition. 

Residents can also 

attend a drop-in 

information session at 

New Brighton Library on 

August 13 between 4pm 

and 6pm. 

The consultation period 

closes on August 27, with 

a staff report going to 

the Coastal-Burwood 

Community Board 

for a final decision in 

September or October. 

The city council hopes 

to start work at Thomson 

Park by February next 

year.

Your Local Views 

Readers respond to last 

week’s article on keeping 

the annual city council Guy 

Fawkes fireworks event in 

New Brighton 

Wilhelmina Flick – Please 

keep it. We all enjoy it and would 

hate to see it go. It’s great for the 

businesses and is a wonderful 

family event. My vote is for it to 

stay. 

Aaron Tily – I feel as if the 

event should continue to be held 

in New Brighton. If need be, get 

those who go to the event on 

buses. Solves some of the traffic 

issues. If Wellington can have 

fireworks on the waterfront we 

should be allowed them on the 

pier. 

Sarah Spencer Smith – I 

went last weekend and it was 

packed out, even at 5pm on 

Saturday. No space to change in 

women’s changing room. Once 

two schools open and clubs return 

then there will be no room 

for lane swimming. Need a 50m 

pool desperately. 

Aubrey Walker – Having 

it at the end of the pier gives us 

the best safety overall. When it 

comes to the fireworks therefore 

they give us a bigger show and 

bigger shells. It’s amazing being 

at the end of the pier, it should 

never move and the date should 

never change. 

Jacob Savage – Hagley 

Park, because if they continue 

to do it at New Brighton beach 

there will be so much rubbish on 

the beach. It’s got worse over the 

past years. 

Maria Mann – Keep it 

in Brighton. It’s brilliant, we 

can watch it from our place in 

South Brighton no need to 

worry about a park or getting 

home. 

John Dunphy – When is 

this city council going to force 

the people remaining on the east 

side of town out? Before or after 

the lake goes in? 

Graham Pownceby – How 

about Summit Rd, so we can all 

watch it from anywhere in the 

city. 

Taina Kahutia Tawhitopou 

Connell – It stays where its 

always been. 

John Wooding – Hagley 

Park is the obvious place. 

We said: 

Sport groups and recreational 

users are jostling for 

space at the new Taiora: 

QE II Recreation and Sport 

Centre: 

You said: 

Lynne Cook – I am writing 

to say how disappointed we 

are in the new QE II complex. 

We have found the water temperature 

cool to say the least. We 

have gone back to Graham Condon 

Recreation and Sports Centre 

pool as its warmer. Talking to 

people they are saying the same 

– the pool staff are aware of this 

but shrugging it off. I was told 

it was cool for the swim squads. 

We swim regularly and are even 

more disappointed in the size 

of the complex. The changing 

rooms are very cramped, 

two people sitting opposite each 

other getting changed have 

to be careful not to bang into 

each other. The city council has 

definitely made a big mistake 

with the size of the complex. We 

were absolutely horrified to be 

turned away one Sunday due to 

it being full. The 25m pool was 

not full but the complex was. It’s 

a real shame. 

Gary Knight – Given the volume 

of sporting groups that have 

endured limited space facilities 

prior to the opening of Taiora: 

QE II Recreation and Sport Centre, 

it would be surely reasonable 

to allow them specific time slots 

at this venue. A hydroslide, lap 

pool, leisure pool, learn to swim, 

hydrotherapy, spa sauna and 

steam pool bears testimony to 

the diverse range of facilities 

for the benefit of all. In spite of 

parochial viewpoints from some 

recreational pool users, rationale 

should prevail and concede the 

need for specific times from 

some sporting groups. Within 

this context the sole use of the 

25m pool for seven hours weekly 

by water polo groups hardly 

encroaches on the overall use of 

this space for all public personnel. 

Kim Button – It’s such a 

shame that this iconic site was 

not given more pool options. The 

old QE II had a dive pool, a 50m 

and a 25m lane pool for recreation 

and sporting use (as well as 

the lazy river and hydroslides). 

Seems as though there has been 

a genuine lack of vision and 

understanding of the true needs 

and demands for a decent aqua 

recreation facility. And, as we 

know, it’s going to be a very long 

time before we see the metro 

sports centre operating. 

Gayle Elizabeth Lord 

– Once again they didn’t listen 

to those who live in the area, 

many of whom used the old QE 

II. The situation will only get 

worse once we have two high 

schools using the facilities. 

Meredyth Anderson – I 

think that most of the money 

went on developing a pool that 

could go up and down re: water 

depth. I totally agree . . . it’s too 

small for the demand and such a 

shame. 

Thor Major – There is just 

not enough space for recreational 

users who are not children 

there at all. I went one evening 

and found no adult swimming 

space at all. 

Amanda White – Closed 

because either too full or “code 

brown,” spa too shallow, changing 

rooms too small. Dreading 

when the schools open. 

Tana Helsham – I feel like 

they made a huge mistake with 

its size. They had an opportunity 

to create a world-class swimming 

facility for professionals 

as well as a large entertainment 

pool for families. I did read there 

are plans for another pool/park 

on Brighton beach. So that could 

relieve QE II pressure in like six 

years maybe. 

Tanya Hyde – Bad planning 

on so many levels. Was so looking 

forward to finally having a 

pool in my area but it’s too busy. 

Paula Hemingway – Another 

council mistake by the 

sound of it. It is never going to 

get anything right. 

Michelle Ben Haim – It was 

obvious from the word go. It was 

to small. 

Heather Wilkins – At least 

there is a pool to fight over on 

that side of town. Just enjoy it.

The Coastal Burwood and

Board met with the Ministry

discuss concerns it had with 

the proposed zone changes 

for Avonside Girls’ and 

Shirley Boys’ High Schools. 

You said: 

Vicki Ware – Prestons is closer 

to Mairehau than QE II, it wasn’t 

included in the zone. The school 

runs its own zoning every three 

years. I believe they could include 

it at that stage, the zone is not 

well thought out. South Brighton 

is included which is further 

away than the school original 

zone and Prestons. The MoE has 

failed everyone doing consulting 

through a school holiday period 

and wasn’t well publicised to the 

area they were excluding unless 

you had a child or were involved 

in the school. We were given 

options of Mairehau and Haeata 

Community Campus. Prestons 

has Mairehau High School, not far 

at all. This was a closure by stealth, 

and a new high school should be 

built in Richmond, there are lots 

of feeder schools here that will suffer 

due to no definite high school 

options. 

Don Gould – Simply no 

engagement from the MoE on 

this issue with the community. 

Where is the data from the MoE 

that these calls are being made 

on? What is the plan for schooling 

for the southern area around 

Richmond now? I really can’t 

comment on this issue because I 

just know nothing. The MoE has 

put nothing in the public domain 

that I’ve seen, so the only noise in 

the room is simply from objectors 

who seem very emotive at best.

what stupid does. Let the morons 

hurt themselves, and when they 

go to A&E, get the police to pick 

them up and either arrest them 

or trespass them . . . either way, 

they are morons. 

Tiffany Burke – If the council 

was really worried then they’d 

demolish the buildings. The fact 

is the city council doesn’t actually 

care to begin with. 

Marg Edwards – Dumb answers, 

they are still fellow man no 

matter what. Okay, so they climb 

into the building, that’s the last 

thing I’d say on it, not rumblings 

from idiots who think everyone 

deserves some damage done to

would blame the council for not 

putting up enough notices. 

Karen Hibberd – Let them

You can’t fix stupid.

Community treasure 

Avebury House Community 

Trust social enterprise 

manager Michelle 

Whitaker writes about the 

history of the “Mona Vale 

of the East” 

THERE’S A good chance you 

have never heard of Avebury 

House. 

Tucked away in a corner of 

Richmond’s river red zone are 

the well-tended gardens and 

stately grandeur of a Victorian 

manor. 

Completed in 1885 for the 

Flesher family, Avebury House 

has weathered dilapidation, 

youth hostel and earthquakes, 

and is now beautifully restored 

to 100 per cent quake standard. 

A beautiful heritage building 

steeped in local history Avebury 

House is no museum – it is a 

thriving community hub where 

you can find yoga or art classes, 

join the new men’s shed, hire 

the commercial kitchen, have a 

birthday party, or your workplace 

meetings, and naturally 

it is a stunning setting for that 

picture-perfect wedding too. 

You can view the history room 

or just sit in the cosy community 

library with a good book. 

In contrast to the neatly kept 

flower gardens in front, out 

back beyond the paddling pool 

and playground, dedicated local 

volunteers have created the 

Richmond Community Garden. 

Raised garden beds, a native 

edibles garden and a rain capture 

system, it is definitely worth 

a visit. 

BEAUTIFUL: 

Victorian home 

Avebury House 

is located in 

Richmond. 

The space was recently used 

for a Matariki celebration that 

included live music, stalls and a 

traditional hāngi. 

The restoration and ongoing 

management of the house and 

grounds has been funded by 

council and Government agencies, 

but the goal is to make it 

into a bustling social enterprise, 

a community space supporting 

locals and have wonderful annual 

events. 

So all the very affordable hire 

fees for your party, wedding or 

meeting goes straight back into 

community activity. So a beautiful 

venue with the real feel-good 

factor. 

If you haven’t discovered this 

architectural and community 

treasure, hopefully, this has 

piqued your curiosity – go and 

admire one of Christchurch’s 

true heritage buildings, one that 

has its face to the community’s 

future.

PEGASUS POST 

Production under way at SBHS 


GETTING TO work with a 

professional playwright for an 

original production is a rare 

occurrence for any aspiring 

performer. 

But not for Shirley Boys’ and 

Avonside Girls’ High School 

students, who will be performing 

an original play by Shirley’s head 

of drama Ken Hudson. 

Mr Hudson, who has previously 

written for The Court 

Theatre, has developed a new 

play inspired by English writer 

Charles Dickens’ A Tale of Two 

Cities. 

The original play Two Cities 

Told Again has been described by 

Mr Hudson as a “psychological 

drama” where the main characters 

are “heavily conflicted” 

between doing what is right and 

their passions. 

“The main thing was I didn’t 

set out to write a school production 

because I never do that 

I wanted to write a play I would 

be happy with so it could be performed 

by anybody anywhere,” 

he said. 

Mr Hudson said he thought the 

scripts for Dickens’ A Tale of Two 

Cities was a bit “Victorian” and 

SCHOOLS 

“melodramatic” which was why 

he decided to rewrite the play. 

About 50 students will take 

part in the production. 

It will be Mr Hudson’s sixth 

production with Shirley Boys’ 

after he became a teacher at the 

school nine years ago. 

In his first production, only 

12 students took part (some of 

which needed a lot of persuasion). 

Mr Hudson said it also didn’t 

help with the first production being 

at the time of the September 

4, 2010, earthquake. 

“They did not have much of 

a history of drama, they did in 

60s and 70s I think but it all sort 

of faded out . . . it was a bit of a 

rocky road getting it up and running,” 

he said. 

•Two Cities Told Again will 

be performed at the Shirley 

Boys’ High School main hall 

at 7pm from today through 

to August 10. Tickets cost 

$10 and will be sold at the 

door. 

DRAMA: Shirley Boys’ High School and Avonside Girls’ High School will perform an original 

production by their head of drama and playwright Ken Hudson. 

Pre-schoolers learn sign language with deaf teacher 

• Ashleigh Monk 

DEAF WOMAN Jocelyn Thorpe 

has never learned sign language. 

So when the opportunity came 

up for the Linwood pre-school 

teacher to learn it with her pupils, 

she jumped at the chance. 

Ms Thorpe and the children 

at Haven Early Learning Centre, 

in Linwood have been learning 

the basics of New Zealand Sign 

Language with the help of van 

Asch Deaf Education Centre tutor 

Victoria Green. 

She said the pre-school welcomed 

her with open arms when 

she took up her teaching position 

at the centre. 

“The children have just accepted 

me as who I am, not 

necessarily as a deaf person, but 

just as Jocelyn.” 

Ms Thorpe, who could hear 

with the help of a cochlear implant, 

said learning sign language 

could help the children be more 

accepting of hearing-impaired 

people in their community. 

“It has been wonderful, actually, 

because they are just so 

receptive to learning another way 

of communication. And they 

seem even more intrigued to find 

out that it can help a person that 

BILINGUAL: Haven Early 

Learning Centre teacher 

Jocelyn Thorpe, who is deaf, 

has been learning New 

Zealand Sign Language with 

the pre-schoolers. 

has got a hearing impairment,” 

she said. 

“They know that if somebody 

has a hearing impairment 

. . . they need to use their sign 

language.” 

The youngsters had picked up 

sign language really well, and 

could all sign their name. “We 

don’t have high expectations, we 

let children learn at their own 

pace. So some are quite happy 

to use just a few signs, others are 

happy to do a few more. We just 

celebrate what they have learnt.” 

Ms Thorpe said parents often 

sat in on the sessions to join their 

children in learning sign language, 

which encouraged them to 

use it outside of pre-school. 

The idea to kick start sign language 

lessons at the centre came 

from teacher Clair McConchie. 

Ms McConchie said it was important 

for the children to learn 

NZSL, not only to communicate 

with hearing impaired people, 

but also to use sign as a way of 

expressing themselves. 

“They know signs like ‘hungry’ 

and ‘thirsty’ . . . so they can communicate 

every day sentences by 

using their signs.” She had been 

learning sign language herself 

for the past three months, and 

wanted to share what she had 

learnt with the children. 

“More people should learn (sign 

language). I hope it catches on to 

other pre-schools; it’s so important, 

it just bridges that gap in the 

deaf community.”

Trust dishes up 

free brekkie to 

Aranui children 

FREE breakfasts 

including sausages, egg 

muffins, cereal, fruit and 

milo were served up to 

students and pupils on 

their way to school in 

Aranui. 

The Aranui Community 

Trust fed 106 pupils, 

students and their families 

as part of its monthly 

Brekky on the Run. 

The free breakfast 

was dished up outside 

the trust’s office on 

Hampshire St. 

Students and pupils at 

the breakfast were from 

Haeata Community Campus, 

St James School and 

Linwood North School. 

Trust worker Sheree 

Rangihuna said it could 

not run the event without 

the generosity of its 

valued sponsors. Brekky 

on the Run is supported 

by Iron Bridge Real Estate 

and the eggs are donated 

by Camilla Obel and Matt

Said Ms Rangihuna: 

“(The breakfast) is really 

nice and quite engaging 

because you are getting 

that one-on-one with 

people who want to stop 

and talk.” The trust’s 

next community lunch 

will be held on Thursday 

from 11am at Cafe 53 on

residing in the city and carrying out weekly 

teachings, meditation classes and retreats. 

Fulfilling this request Geshe-la now teaches 

every Tuesday night and Sunday morning. 

• Geshe-la graduated from the largest 

Tibetan Buddhist monastery in the 

world, Sera Monastic University 

in South India. His main teachers 

included His Holiness the Dalai Lama, 

the late Venerable Khensur Urgyen 

Tseten, Venerable Khensur Kangurwa 

Lobsang Thupten and Venerable 

Khenpo Lobsang Palden. 

• Geshe-la arrived in New Zealand in 

2008 teaching originally in Dunedin 

then through requests moved to 

Christchurch 2011, ever since proving 

to be lively and entertaining, fresh 

and eloquent. Certainly he is very 

experienced, having taught younger 

monks in the monastery, in his home 

region of Tibet and for 3 years in 

the traditionally Tibetan-Buddhist 

country of Mongolia. Having Geshela 

to teach in Christchurch therefore, 

is quite a wonderful opportunity for 

people to make a deep connection 

with age-old teachings. 

• At the Centre Geshe-la’s classes focus 

on understanding the mind, mind 

training and meditation practices. 

ADVERTORIAL 

Phen Day Dhargyey Ling (Tibetan) 

- ‘A Centre for the Source of Benefit and 

Happiness’ is the meaning of the name given 

by the esteemed lama Lhagon Rinpoche. 

The Christchurch people have the wonderful opportunity to engage in Tibetan Buddhist 

philosophy and tradition with the local resident spiritual ‘friend’, as he likes to be referred 

as, Venerable Geshe Nyima Dorje (Geshe-la). 

Meditation & Mind Training; 

• How to generate love, compassion, 

generosity and patience. The purpose 

is to create a peaceful mind. When 

our mind is disturbed it lacks love, 

compassion and patience. If we know 

how to generate these qualities we 

can create a more peaceful mind. We 

have accustomed our minds more to 

disturbances. We know that as we can 

see how easy it is to become angry and 

how much effort is needed to remain 

patient. Familiarisation is the key. 

Also if we apply our understanding 

to our own situation; we need to 

be loved and if we need this then it 

is fair to say others also want to be 

loved. If we generate this to others 

then we gain the benefits, as we then 

receive love and compassion. ‘Others’ 

mean all beings, if we have this 

mental expansion there are enormous 

benefits. 

• As long as we have strong compassion 

we have more patience, from this we 

don’t get angry as quickly or as easily 

then we have peace of mind. 

• The Mind Training constitutes these 

kinds of practices, learning and 

practicing how to become acquainted 

with these qualities of mind, so that 

arises spontaneously, or at least are 

generated more easily.

PEGASUS POST 

Full range of auto 

services at familyrun 

business 

The long-running auto repair and 

servicing business, New Brighton 

Automotive, has been a family-run 

operation for two years now with Michael 

Cromwell at the helm, and parents Richard 

and Karen backing him up. 

Michael had gained extensive knowledge 

and experience working in garages around 

Christchurch, and he and Richard had 

worked together previously in Oamaru, so 

taking over the New Brighton business was 

an ideal move for the family. 

They have two qualified mechanics on 

the team, with the workshop offering the 

full range of automotive servicing and 

mechanical repairs, including diagnostic 

and electrical work and WOFs. 

Wheel alignment and supply and fitting 

new tyres are also included in the range 

of services, while a free towing service is 

available for customers if necessary. 

As well as providing expert repairs 

and servicing, Michael and his team can 

offer helpful advice to customers, with 

the positive comments on their 

Facebook page seen Michael says 

business has increased since they 

took over. Customers come from 

right around the New Brighton and 

Parklands areas, and further afield, 

with some people who moved to the 

outskirts of Christchurch following 

the earthquakes still coming back to have 

their vehicles serviced at New Brighton 

Automotive. 

They also have contacts in the 

Christchurch car sales industry he says, 

with a number of the car sales yards 

sending vehicles there for servicing. 

New Brighton Automotive is located at 

40 Hawke Street, New Brighton, behind 

the Z Energy service station. Opening 

hours are Tuesday to Friday, 8am to 

5.30pm, Saturday 8am-12pm. Closed 

Sunday and Monday. 

To book in for any of their services, 

phone 388 3630, or call in at the workshop. 

They are always happy to help.

SCHOOL OPTIONS - early & middle years 2019 

Small co-ed classes at St Michael’s 

Is your child one of 15 or 50? Is their 

classroom calm and productive 

or a disharmony of noise and 

movement? How much of their 

teacher’s attention does your child 

actually receive? 

At St Michael’s, our small co-ed classes 

and specialist teachers ensure your child is 

an individual, well known by staff and fellow 

pupils alike. For at the heart of St Michael’s 

are the essential values of Christian faith 

and good citizenship: respect, integrity, 

faith, hope and love. 

St Michael’s is a prep school so your 

child is assured of a traditional foundation 

in English and Mathematics. This 

academic rigour then underpins our wider 

curriculums in Science, History, Geography 

and Spanish. IT literacy is taught, not 

assumed, and computer use is measured. 

We like teaching and talking to our pupils! 

Cultural and sports’ programmes 

develop your child’s foundation further, 

as creativity and problem-solving come 

in many forms. Specialist art and music 

classes are enjoyed weekly; and most pupils 

play at least one instrument, whether piano 

or flute, bassoon or bongos. There are two 

choirs, and drama lessons. 

And our extended campus is spectacular: 

today, the Art Gallery; tomorrow, the 

Gardens; next week… 

St Michael’s has been nurturing and 

educating children for 167 years, and our 

pupils come from city-wide, arriving via 

the bus exchange only a block away or 

with parents who work in the thriving city 

centre. 

You and your child are warmly welcome 

to discover for yourselves our purposeful, 

wholehearted and inclusive prep school. 

Our Open Day is Wednesday 15 August or

Cathedral Grammar 

The Cathedral Grammar School is an 

independent school providing high-quality 

education for pre-school, primary school 

and intermediate aged girls and boys. 

This is a place of ambition alongside 

preparation where students learn from the 

best right from the start. Every year level 

benefits from the expertise of our highcalibre 

specialist teachers across multiple 

subjects. And small class sizes means a 

lot of individual attention so every child’s 

strengths are identified and built on and 

support provided where and when needed. 

Our school structure is unique and 

designed to ensure students have the 

opportunity to make the most of their 

formative school years. We understand 

learning happens in different ways at 

different ages; our students work in both 

co-educational and single-sex learning 

environments at times when this best suits 

their learning styles. In Pre-School and 

the Junior School children learn in a coeducational 

environment. Students in Years 

4 to 8 attend either our Boys’ or Girls’ School. 

Allowing students the best of both worlds, 

single sex classes offer the opportunity to 

target and deliver the curriculum in the 

most effective and interesting style possible, 

while social skills are developed by sharing 

mixed-environment break times, specialist 

classes and activities. 

Creativity and culture play a 

big role here with four choirs and 

hundreds of individual music, 

speech and drama lessons every 

week. We’re also a proud sporting 

school, providing students with 

the facilities and encouragement 

to try their hand at a range of 

sports and recreation activities. 

Ultimately, we are committed 

to providing a balance of 

tradition and rigour, while being 

curious and adventurous every 

day. 

Let the learning 

adventure begin

Grammar School has to offer. To register

OPEN DAY 

28 August, 9.30 am




Middle schooling 

makes a difference 

Having a curriculum and learning 

environment designed specifically for 

learners in the “middle years” (Years 7-10) is 

essential to ensure high levels of motivation 

and engagement in learning during this 

crucial stage of schooling. 

At Hillmorton High School having a 

consistent approach without a transition 

to a new school between Year 8 and 9 is 

proving to be positive in terms of 

accelerating student learning within 

the Middle School. 

We are currently working with 

our architects designing a new 

Middle School building with 22 

“General Learning Areas”. These 

areas are flexible and can operate as 

single cell classrooms or be opened 

up to allow more open learning 

spaces – the best of both worlds. 

This building will not disrupt 

learning as it is being built on the 

current tennis courts. 

This environment fits well 

with our broad Middle School 

curriculum allowing learners to 

explore and find both their strengths 

and passions. 

The advantage of combining 

the skills of Year 7 and 8 specialist 

teachers with the subject specialists 

of a high school gives our Middle 

School learners a huge advantage. 

Additionally, our “Big Day Out” 

events and end of year student 

electives allow our young people to learn in 

a range of environments often participating 

in social action such as planting, working 

with the elderly, along with exploring the 

city, the Art Gallery and the university. 

Our Middle School is ensuring real 

educational success and positive future 

prospects as students move into the Senior 

School for Years 11-13. 

Providing 

our students 

with learning 

and personal 

growth 

opportunities 

At St. Francis of Assisi Catholic School, 

our mission is that we are “choosing 

to be an innovative, catholic learning 

community that inspires and empowers 

learners to succeed.” 

We are committed to inspiring and 

empowering students for success, 

through the implementation of innovative 

instructional practices, leveraging digital 

technology, ensuring equity of access for 

all. 

We offer a range of sporting and cultural, 

innovative and creative opportunities. 

Teaching and learning experiences are 

personalised for our students and value 

student voice. 

Within our new flexible learning spaces 

every child has the opportunity to learn 

through authentic contexts, solving real 

world problems. 

Together we continue to innovate within 

a Catholic learning environment where all 

learners are inspired to learn, create and 

share. We are creating learners who will 

not only be successful but will become 

people who will positively impact on their 

world.

Selwyn House School - 

small class sizes and talented 

teaching staff 

For primary school, every parent wants 

to ensure their child is receiving the best 

foundation for their academic future. 

Selwyn House School has small class sizes 

and a talented teaching staff set within a 

nurturing environment and an extensive 

range of opportunities. 

Selwyn House offers the International 

Baccalaureate (IB) Primary Years 

Programme (PYP) and is proud to be a 

leading STEAM focused school. We not only 

encourage our girls to work in advanced 

STEAM fields, we want our girls to lead 

them. Our STEAM Hub provides every 

student from Year 1 to 8 access to stateof-the-art 

equipment. In Mechatronics, 

girls learn the foundations of mechanical 

and electrical knowledge. Robotics is 

introduced as an interdisciplinary, projectbased 

learning activity drawing mostly 

on mathematics, science and technology. 

Learning is also enhanced by additional 

opportunities including the 2018 Space 

Camp trip where 18 girls will travel to the 

United States to attend a week-long Space 

Camp. 

A supportive all-girl learning 

environment encourages girls to take 

risks without fear of failure. As the girls 

progress they are confident in their 

abilities, understanding that perseverance 

helps them grow. A school-wide buddy 

programme provides each girl with support 

and mentoring. 

Learning is personalised and each 

teacher has the time to foster authentic 

and meaningful relationships. Strong 

relationships between the class teacher and 

family ensure each girl’s learning journey 

is nurtured by a partnership of support. 

Teachers construct learning activities 

to help each girl identify their personal 

strengths. 

Selwyn House believes these strengths 

can be applied to academic tasks 

and become more powerful with the 

acquisition of skills and knowledge, aiding 

intellectual development and academic 

achievement. For this reason core learning 

in reading, writing and mathematics is 

a priority. Specialist teachers in Spanish, 

Mechatronics, Art, Science, Physical 

Education, Swimming, Performing Arts 

and Music work with classroom teachers to 

help identify the strengths of every girl. 

The environment at Selwyn House 

empowers each girl to embrace their future 

and develop a love of learning. A Selwyn 

House girl will learn to define herself, 

accept responsibility, form opinions, 

and have compassion for the world. This 

combination of achievement, confidence, 

and character makes a Selwyn House 

education a powerful and transformative 

experience.

A SMALL celebration was held in 

recognition of Queenspark Primary 

School keeping its patch of land litter-free

Chris Kime present. 

The school and its

were recognised for 

going “above and

city a greener place 

at the annual KCB 

awards. 

However, principal 

Kim Money Ross Willocks was 

unable to attend the awards ceremony so 

he decided to have a special assembly to 

present the awards to the whole school. 

Mr Kime said it was a significant 

achievement to have 25 years of friendship 

with KCB, which was why the school 

wanted to make a big 

deal of the awards at its 

assembly. 

“Having Lianne with 

us was such a privilege 

and a honour and it is 

not the sort of thing 

she does everyday, 

going out to schools,” 

he said. 

Pupils from Korea Ross Willocks 

and China were also 

welcomed at the assembly and were the 

first children from overseas to be hosted 

at the school since the February 22, 2011, 

earthquake. 

The certificates also acknowledge 

Queenspark’s commitment towards the 

maintenance and upkeep of Queenspark

Grape seeds 

shown to have 

remarkable 

health benefits! 

According to researchers grape seeds 

may hold the potential to treat and prevent 

many devastating disorders. The seeds 

have been found to contain many powerful 

antioxidant that have been shown to 

support the natural healing process and 

even slow the aging process. 

Grape Seed Extract (GSE) has been shown 

to reduce inflammation, pain, increase 

cell energy, protect protein structures and 

increase collagen production. The powerful 

antioxidants can tone and strengthen 

the blood vessels, improve blood flow, 

making it valuable for circulatory disorders 

of all kinds, including varicose veins, 

haemorrhoids, hardening of the arteries 

and impaired blood flow to the brain. It 

is excellent for most skin conditions with 

many noticing the skin becomes smoother. 

GSE offers a natural alternative for many 

people with hypertension. (High Blood 

Pressure) Higher B/P puts more stress 

on organs and can lead to atherosclerosis 

(hardening of the arteries) and increased 

risk of heart disease and strokes. 

Recent studies on people with elevated 

B/P found GSE to significantly lower B/P 

but with no effect on people with normal 

B/P. Animal studies have shown GSE to 

improve heart function, reduce damage 

caused by heart attacks and prevent arterial 

plaque. 

A growing number of studies show that 

GSE has powerful anticancer properties, 

can help balance blood sugar, improve 

arthritis and protect brain cells. It may prove 

vital in the treatment of brain disorders like 

Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease. 

Numerous studies on GSE show it can 

help support our good health and prevent 

many degenerative diseases. Further 

detailed information is available from

1 in 2 people 

deficient in B12 

Emerging research has shown as many as 50% of older adults and 

as many as 25% of younger adults are deficient in vitamin B12. 

Scientists at Rush University Medical 

Center found those most deficient 

in vitamin B12 to have the smallest 

brain mass and the lowest scores on 

tests measuring short-term memory, 

concentration and brain performance. 

Another study showed that older people 

with higher levels of B12 in their blood 

have bigger, healthier brains and score 

higher on cognitive tests than those with 

lower levels. Yet another recent landmark 

study showed that B12 supplementation 

slows the accelerated rate of brain 

shrinkage and declining cognitive function. 

B12 is essential for energy production, cell 

health, regulation of mood and sleep cycles, 

nerve health and repair, and prevention 

of homocysteine a serious cardiovascular 

risk factor that is known to cause damage 

and plaque in the blood vessels. It can also 

increase the chances of a stroke. Harvard 

researchers found 

a 34% decrease 

risk of vision 

loss in a study 

of participants 

aged 40+ who 

supplemented with 

B12. Another study 

linked a higher risk of hearing loss in 

subjects in their 60’s who were low in B12. 

The reason so many people lack B12 

appears to be our body’s ability to absorb 

it declining with age as the digestive 

system becomes less efficient. Anti-reflux 

medication and other drugs further reduce 

B12 absorption. The good news is B12 in 

the form of Methylcobalamin sublingual 

tablets that are dissolved in the mouth and 

thru bypassing the digestive tract have 

been shown to effectively raise B12 levels in 

the body.

Therapy, 110 Seaview Road, New

HOME & HEATING 

Choosing the 

right heat pump 

for your home 

Whether it be a new build, or a retrofit, 

most homes include at least one heat pump, 

if not a whole heating solution. They can 

provide cheap, clean heat and are much more 

convenient than a log burner as you just need 

to press a button. But how do you decide what 

is best? Choosing the right sized heat pump is 

key to ensuring optimum comfort levels. Every 

situation varies and it is therefore important 

to get professional advice from heat pump 

experts. 

The range varies from wall mounted high 

walls, floor mounted systems, multi systems, 

ceiling cassettes, right through to ducted 

central heating systems allowing you to have a 

very discreet way of heating your whole home 

to a constant temperature throughout. 

Firstly, you must select a heat pump that 

is suitable for the size of the space you wish 

to heat. Usually a site visit is the best way to 

ascertain this. Not only is the size of the area 

taken into consideration but also, insulation, 

building orientation, windows and ceiling 

space. There are a wide range of heat pumps 

available with different heating outputs so it 

is important to select the correct size for your 

requirements that will handle the job but not 

be unnecessarily overpowered. 

Secondly, the location of your heat pump 

is also extremely important. The cheapest 

installation is a back to back where the outdoor 

unit is positioned directly behind the indoor 

unit however this is not necessarily always 

the best option. It is vital that the indoor 

unit is positioned in a place that will not be 

PEGASUS POST 

constantly blowing on you. Also important, is 

the location of the outdoor unit. Most people 

do not want their outdoor unit sitting directly 

in their outdoor entertaining area or right 

outside their bedroom window. 

Choose a brand you can trust. Many brands 

have come and gone over the years but there 

are a number of manufacturers who provide 

reputable and reliable products. All brands vary 

in their energy efficiency, quietness of systems 

and price, so it depends on your application as 

to which will be most suitable. Major brands 

such as Panasonic, Fujitsu, Mitsubishi, Daikin, 

Toshiba and Hitachi are all reliable brands 

backed up by good technical after sales service. 

Ensure your heat pump is installed by an 

accredited installer. This will not only ensure 

correct installation of your heat pump, but also 

validate the manufacturers warranty. 

Other things to consider when choosing a 

heat pump are time clocks, ease of use of the 

remote controllers, air filtration and also wifi 

capabilities. 

Heating is a major investment in your home 

and it is vital to get the right advice. 

Enviro Master Ltd specialise in the supply, 

installation and servicing of all major brands 

of heat pumps. Our salesmen are engineers 

ensuring you get quality, unbiased advice as

HOME & HEATING 

Get rid of 

dampness 

in your house 

Now with the colder and wetter weather on 

its way, home owners are focusing on ways 

to make their homes comfortable, warm and 

healthy for their families throughout winter. 

Rising damp is an issue that affects many of 

our older properties which suffer from poor, or 

no, insulation. In Canterbury especially, postquake, 

many people have relocated to homes 

that suffer from rising damp which can be 

associated with health problems. Independent 

tests have shown that up to 40 litres of water can 

rise from the ground and enter a house every 

day, leading to mildew, mould, condensation 

and musty smells. Moulds can produce 

various allergic reactions and the 

frail, elderly and very young are 

especially vulnerable. 

Canterbury Foam Concrete 

Ltd is a locally owned and 

operated firm. The team 

understands the problems 

caused by rising damp and are 

there to help. They will come 

to your damp home and pump 

a lightweight, flowable foam 

concrete under your timber 

floored home. Specially adapted 

for our New Zealand conditions and 

applications it provides a layer of protection 

against rising moisture. An unexpected 

benefit that the team at Canterbury Foam 

Concrete have noticed recently, is that many 

owners of properties which had underfloor 

foam concrete installed, reported that it also 

provided protection against liquefaction after 

the earthquakes. 

Contact Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd 

now for your free, no obligation quote and 

complimentary appraisal of your underfloor 

ventilation needs. Phone 03 376 4608 or 

0508 362626 for more information.

Of the 23 Christchurch Workshop team 

members, seven have been there for over ten

Several other staff have been with 

Smooth-Air since near the beginning, 

even if not continuously, such as Russell 

Warnock, who was a great innovator during 

the early years and is now back in R&D. 

Also, Paul Shaw, who worked with Allan 

even prior to Smooth-Air, and has been in 

the Ventilation industry for nearly 40 years. 

Paul is now Smooth-Air’s HVAC Product

“Living Fully in Dying 

and Death?” 

Dying and especially death have become 

increasingly taboo subjects in our modern 

western society. This course will involve reflective 

consideration of the recent important literature 

of how to live life to the full when facing the last 

of life’s major stages of dying and death. This is 

at a time when more people are living longer and 

are becoming more removed from the reality of 

what it means to be mortal. Attention will also 

be drawn to recent research on palliative care and 

how it informs people to face approaching death 

not with trepidation but openness, clarity and 

understanding. This is an information sharing, 

reflective course and is not therapeutic in format. 

It will be a six-week course of 2 hour sessions; held 

on Thursday afternoons, 2 – 4 pm, commencing 

on 23rd August. The course will be facilitated by 

Rodney Routledge and others and be interactive 

in format.

THAT’S right folks! DND Showband returns 

to the Hornby Club this Saturday with the 

original line up. 

“We’ve had a lot of fun putting this show 

together, ”said Jo-Anne Davern, performer 

and manager of the band. “It’s been a good 

couple of years since this line up last 

performed together and I’m amazed at how 

simply we all slotted back in place. It’s like 

we were never apart.” 

Joining Jo on stage will be regular 

members Ben Harvey (guitar, vocals); Grant 

McPhie (bass, keys); and Mark Newburn 

(drums, vocals), along with showband 

chanteuses Michele Webb, Gina Gilbreath, 

and Mel Lawson. 

Christchurch based DnD Showband has 

been delighting audiences across the 

country with their multi-tribute theme 

shows for an incredible ten years. In 

rehearsal mode for Saturday’s show, the 7 

piece troupe has been busy fine tuning show 

content, sorting costumes and tightening up 

moves. 

“We’ve put together a great play list 

guaranteed to get everyone up dancing. 

We’re opening with a set of 50s/60s tunes, 

followed by our Moulin Rouge theme set 

that brims with disco dance anthems of the 

70s/80s, and concluding with our tribute to 

ABBA,” said Jo. “And for those who prefer to 

listen and watch, our professional tech’s 

Peter Standring and Peter ‘Pedro’ Buchan-Ng 

will be out front running our audio and 

light systems to ensure it sounds and looks 

wonderful.”
