A WOOLSTON widow has been<br />

reunited with her much-loved<br />

copper urns.<br />

Police returned the urns<br />

to retired nurse Jill Walker<br />

on Thursday after they were<br />

recovered from a house in St<br />

Martins.<br />

The urns were stolen from<br />

Mrs Walker’s home in June. A<br />

29-year-old-man and a 44-yearold<br />

woman have been charged<br />

with burglary and receiving<br />

stolen property.<br />

Mrs Walker made a plea in<br />

<strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong> last month for<br />

the return of the “precious”<br />

urns which belonged to her<br />

late husband of 43 years Barry<br />

Walker.<br />

She was delighted the items<br />

had been found and returned to<br />

her. “It’s just wonderful news,”<br />

Mrs Walker said.<br />

The copper urns were one<br />

of the few memories left of her<br />

husband who passed away nine<br />

years ago.<br />

She thanked everyone who sent<br />

in messages of support after her<br />

appeal for help.<br />

“I’m sure the newspaper article<br />

helped. When a lot of people<br />

know about it, it makes it hard to<br />

get rid of it doesn’t it?”<br />

Mrs Walker was grateful for<br />

the work of the Phillipstown<br />

Neighbourhood Policing Team.<br />

She admitted “fearing the<br />

worst” when the urns were stolen,<br />

believing they may have been<br />

melted down for their copper.<br />

Mrs Walker now plans to plant<br />

two camellias called ‘donation’<br />

in the urns because her husband<br />

was an organ donor.<br />

“Once they are full of dirt they<br />

will be much harder [to steal].”<br />

She will now make sure her<br />

courtyard gates are always locked<br />

and plans to install security<br />

cameras. The urns were part of a<br />

$100,000 antique haul seized in<br />

a police sting on Aynsley Tce, St<br />

Martins, two weeks ago.<br />

Mrs Walker said she was<br />

surprised they were found so<br />

close to Woolston.<br />

The two alleged offenders<br />

entered no plea in the district<br />

court last week and will appear<br />

again on September 11.<br />

Other items recovered include<br />

outdoor ornamental pots, statues,<br />

street lamps, iron gates and other<br />

antiques, police said.<br />

Detective Karen Simmons said<br />

the alleged burglars targeted<br />

antiques, and the items were<br />

taken from around Beckenham,<br />

Opawa, Somerfield and<br />

Woolston.<br />

Said Detective Simmons:<br />

“To be able to return the urns<br />

to the victim and her family is<br />

absolutely wonderful.”<br />

“We do still have a number of<br />

items that we haven’t identified<br />

an owner for, and we’d obviously<br />

like to get these back where they<br />

belong.”<br />

NOW THAT’S a great story on the front<br />

page today - and a terrific photo too.<br />

Two urns that belonged to Jill Walker’s<br />

late husband Barry were stolen a couple of<br />

months ago.<br />

The chance of them being found was<br />

remote. Understandably, Jill was fairly upset as her husband<br />

adored them. They had major sentimental value.<br />

But never underestimate the police and during an operation<br />

they were found alongside other stolen antiques and property.<br />

We had published an article the theft at the time in the hope<br />

someone might find and return them.<br />

But behind the scenes police were beavering away on the case.<br />

The police played ball with us last week and agreed to be photographed<br />

at the hand over.<br />

A good result all round.<br />

Lease granted for sports centre<br />

COMING SOON: Eastern Community Sport and Recreation Inc has secured its lease to part of<br />

Rāwhiti Domain. ​<br />

• By Matt Salmons<br />

THE LEASE is secured, now<br />

onto consents and funding say<br />

Eastern Community Sports and<br />

Recreation Inc organisers.<br />

Plans for a $2.2 million sports<br />

facility in New Brighton started<br />

coming to fruition last week<br />

when the group’s lease of two<br />

spaces in Rāwhiti Domain totalling<br />

4325m 2 was granted.<br />

A recommendation had been<br />

sent to the Burwood-Coastal<br />

Community Board from a hearings<br />

panel, giving the board the<br />

authority to grant the lease at its<br />

meeting last week.<br />

The area leased included the<br />

tennis and netball courts, which<br />

the group planned to relay and<br />

cover with a Canadian built $1.3<br />

million kit-set canopy. The first<br />

of its kind in New Zealand.<br />

Group chairman Peter Burley<br />

said the focus now would shift<br />

to resource and building consents<br />

and applying for Lotteries<br />

Commission funding. He said<br />

the group still planned on work<br />

beginning early next year.<br />

“We’re quite excited about<br />

the next step. It’s a recreational<br />

reserve and it means we can go<br />

in there and increase the utilisation<br />

of it.”<br />

The majority of public submissions<br />

during consultation in May<br />

were in support of the idea, only<br />

seven out of 62 being against.<br />

Five submissions supported the<br />

idea but expressed concern about<br />

reduced public access to the tennis<br />

courts.<br />

Mr Burley said that while it<br />

would have a small impact in the<br />

availability for casual users, it<br />

would significantly increase and<br />

improve the use of the area for its<br />

intended purpose.<br />

“It’s the way of the future really.<br />

What it loses in occasional use<br />

by residents, it gains in giving<br />

them a much higher experience,”<br />

Mr Burley said.<br />

The group planned for the<br />

court outside the canopy to be<br />

available as much as possible<br />

for general use. Only using it<br />

if trainings or tournaments attracted<br />

too many people.<br />

Top award for school<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-<br />

Harding<br />

CHISNALLWOOD<br />

Intermediate’s talented<br />

jazz band has won another<br />

top award after competing<br />

against some of the<br />

country’s best high school<br />

bands.<br />

The band, which is<br />

made up of pupils aged<br />

11 to 13, was awarded a<br />

gold certificate in the big<br />

band category for the Ara<br />

Institute of Canterbury’s<br />

JazzQuest competition.<br />

The school was competing<br />

against 12 other high<br />

school big bands.<br />

To win a gold certificate<br />

the band needed to be<br />

graded between 85 to 100<br />

per cent and were judged<br />

on intonation, balance,<br />

presentation, tightness in<br />

musical phrasing, repertoire<br />

and improvisation.<br />

Music programme coordinator<br />

Judith Bell said it<br />

was amazing for the pupils<br />

to meet the gold standard<br />

criteria at an intermediate<br />

age.<br />

The band performed a<br />

varied repertoire of seven<br />

songs including Neal Hefti’s<br />

Splanky, Louis Prima’s<br />

Sing Sing Sing and Billie<br />

Jean by Michael Jackson.<br />

Pupil William Kao performed<br />

an original song<br />

titled Never Enough Brass.<br />

William has been playing<br />

trombone for a year and a<br />

half. He also plays piano,<br />

the Irish bodhran drum<br />

and cello.<br />

Since 2008 the band has<br />

won several awards at Jazzquest<br />

– four bronze, nine<br />

silver, four gold and one<br />

“best combo” award.<br />

It has already taken part<br />

in several music competitions<br />

this year including<br />

the Steampunk NZ<br />

Festival in Oamaru and<br />

the New Zealand School of<br />

Music Annual Jazz Festival<br />

in Wellington.<br />

SUCCESS: The Chisnallwood Intermediate jazz<br />

band was awarded a gold certificate in the big<br />

band category for the Ara Institute of Canterbury’s<br />

JazzQuest competition.<br />

The band is planning to<br />

take part in the Christchurch<br />

Big Band Festival in<br />

October and have been<br />

invited to perform at music<br />

in the summer air festival<br />

youth summer music camp<br />

in Shanghai next year.<br />

It is also planning to perform<br />

at the Christchurch<br />

Santa Parade and to record<br />

an album at the end of the<br />

year.<br />

“The band is vibrant.<br />

They look and sound like<br />

they enjoy themselves, and<br />

they enjoy rising to challenges<br />

and achieving great<br />

levels of playing,” Ms Bell<br />

said.<br />

Ms Bell said the band<br />

has been performing for<br />

more than 19 years after an<br />

international student from<br />

Thailand asked if he could<br />

join.<br />

“I thought well I have<br />

got nothing to lose and it<br />

just grew from there,” she<br />

said.<br />

Hours: Mon to Fri 10am to 4pm. Sat 10am to 3pm.<br />

city councillors David East<br />

and Glenn Livingstone<br />

pledging to help keep the<br />

New Brighton Guy Fawkes<br />

fireworks event at the pier<br />

Karen Hibberd – Ban all<br />

fireworks.<br />

Taina Kahutia Tawhitopou<br />

Connell – Ban it.<br />

Amanda White – Stay!<br />

They can’t do the big bangers in<br />

the city and Brighton has lost<br />

enough.<br />

Heather Knox – Get rid of<br />

it and replace with a Matariki or<br />

Parihaka event, more relevant to<br />

New Zealand.<br />

Ryan Nield – I think the<br />

current council needs to go.<br />

Sam Stoner – Keep it. It’s<br />

one of the few events we have in<br />

Christchurch.<br />

Christine Weston – Keep it<br />

in Brighton.<br />

We said:<br />

Eighteen families in<br />

Shirley have received free<br />

firewood as a result of a<br />

large community effort<br />

You said:<br />

Ryan Baker – Brilliant idea<br />

of city council and Environment<br />

Canterbury to try and push people<br />

into heat pumps and electric<br />

heating. Fastest way to cripple<br />

vulnerable people’s health and<br />

financial security.<br />

Brian Tones – I wish they<br />

would do more for pensioners, as<br />

most of our power bills in winter<br />

get up around the $400 a month<br />

mark.<br />

Stef Fagan – I’m really<br />

confused. A big load if firewood<br />

costs way less than $700 and<br />

would last longer than a month.<br />

I’m not saying they don’t struggle<br />

but it seems they attack it<br />

from the wrong end?<br />

Traci Leigh – This is<br />

great. But loads of families in<br />

Christchurch don’t have a fire as<br />

we’re not allowed them. Where<br />

is the help for them?<br />

Karen Drummond – Great<br />

to know families won’t be going<br />

Board gets help<br />

to understand<br />

flooding issues<br />

• By Sarla Donovan<br />

THE Linwood-Central-<br />

Heathcote Community Board<br />

has requested an “outside<br />

support person” to<br />

help it understand<br />

Higher Flood Hazard<br />

Management Areas<br />

and Restricted Unit<br />

Overlays.<br />

Christchurch<br />

Coastal Residents<br />

United deputy<br />

chairman Warwick<br />

Schaffer attended a<br />

public-excluded city<br />

council seminar about the topics<br />

last week after the city council<br />

agreed to the request.<br />

The outside adviser was to<br />

help the board “interpret the<br />

information and ask questions,”<br />

said member Darrell Latham.<br />

He said there were<br />

“incongruities” in city council<br />

policy related to HFHMA which<br />

had serious implications for<br />

residents.<br />

“We need clarification and<br />

answers now,” Dr Latham said.<br />

Darrell Latham<br />

The Coastal-Burwood<br />

Community Board was also at<br />

the seminar.<br />

CCRU is a group made up of<br />

coastal residents and experts<br />

who have recently flagged<br />

concerns about how 1486<br />

sites in a Restricted Unit<br />

Overlay within the HF-<br />

to discuss the concerns.<br />

restricted discretionary<br />

activity rule, recommended by<br />

the replacement District Plan<br />

independent hearings panel,<br />

was left out when the plan was<br />

finalised last year.<br />

Without the discretionary<br />

rule, under the District Plan new<br />

developments or intensification<br />

of land use in the HFHMA is to<br />

be avoided.<br />

Dr Latham said the seminar<br />

was for information sharing<br />

rather than decision-making<br />

purposes.<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

Haeata girls art heads to Hagley<br />

Two Haeata<br />

students have won<br />

the Re:ACTIVATE<br />

competition, with a 6m<br />

korowai they designed is<br />

set to be built in Hagley<br />

Park. Julia Evans reports<br />

A 6M steel korowai, stop-go<br />

signs and a sculpture that breaks<br />

if one piece is removed.<br />

The designers of these three<br />

works are about to become fully<br />

fledged artists,<br />

with their work<br />

on display in<br />

Hagley Park –<br />

and they’re all<br />

under the age<br />

of 18.<br />

Art announced<br />

the winners of<br />

its Re:ACTIVE<br />

competition on<br />

Friday after it<br />

put out a call for<br />

young artists’<br />

designs.<br />

A 6m tall<br />

korowai, called<br />

Kākahu, is a<br />

Maori cloak<br />

designed by year<br />

10 and year 12<br />

Haeata Community Campus<br />

students and cousins<br />

Kayla Folwell and Manaia<br />

REFLECTION: Haeata Community Campus students Kayla Folwell and Manaia Mahuika Davis<br />

asked for students to send them designs for their 6m korowai’s feathers.<br />

Mahuika Davis.<br />

The girls were inspired by a<br />

cloak made of paper, which was<br />

already on display at the school.<br />

“We were just looking around<br />

the school for inspiration. In<br />

one of the classrooms, there’s a<br />

korowai made of paper,” Manaia<br />

said. But instead of designing the<br />

feathers themselves, they decided<br />

to enlist the help of schools from<br />

around the city.<br />

“We chose to do that so we<br />

could collaborate with the different<br />

students. Part of the brief was<br />

about braided rivers, which join<br />

HOLD: Christ’s<br />

College student<br />

Ollie Moginie’s work<br />

(left) will break if one<br />

piece is removed.<br />

together,” she said.<br />

Kayla and Manaia had 60<br />

feather designs sent in from 10<br />

different school around the city,<br />

across all levels from early childhood<br />

to high school.<br />

Last week they were taken into<br />

Hagley Park to see the space<br />

where their korowai will be<br />

installed.<br />

“It was really cool,” they said.<br />

Also chosen was Changing<br />

Pathways by nine-year-old<br />

Thorrington School pupil, Katie<br />

Temple, and Our Stories Make<br />

Us, designed by Christ’s College<br />

year 11 student Ollie Moginie.<br />

Katie’s sculpture was inspired<br />

by visits to her grandparents at<br />

Lake Coleridge.<br />

“The Rakaia River is always<br />

in a different place, height, or<br />

speed. It’s like it’s alive and has<br />

a choice of where it’s going,<br />

its amazing. We have a choice<br />

everyday to do the right thing, or<br />

not to, and that is what my signs<br />

are all about.”<br />

Ollie said his sculpture represents<br />

the importance of conservation<br />

of the environment.<br />

“Together all these sticks (the<br />

parts of our environment) are<br />

from one beautiful sculpture<br />

(representing New Zealand).<br />

This sculpture is held together<br />

by each stick and if we let one of<br />

them go (let our rivers get polluted)<br />

then the whole sculpture<br />

will fall apart, and it will just be<br />

on flat pile of sticks,” Ollie said.<br />

Katie, Kayla, Manaia and<br />

Ollie will watch their designs<br />

be created and displayed in<br />

Hagley Park as part of Scape’s<br />

six-week season from October 6<br />

to November 17.<br />

INSPIRATION:<br />

Thorrington School<br />

pupil Katie Temple’s<br />

design was inspired<br />

by trips to her<br />

grandparent’s house.<br />

From the field to the stage<br />

SPORTS<br />

• By Matt Salmons<br />

HAEATA’S Peni Junior Iva is<br />

gearing up for two national<br />

competitions in Auckland next<br />

month – one on the sports field<br />

and another on stage.<br />

As if beginning each weekday<br />

with an hour long bus trip to<br />

Haeata Community Campus<br />

from his home in Halswell<br />

was not busy enough, the year<br />

13 student splits his free time<br />

between his passions- club and<br />

school rugby league games,<br />

youth group, band rehearsals<br />

and training.<br />

“It’s a bit of a struggle every<br />

morning [to travel to Haeata] .<br />

. . but just with how the school<br />

goes, it fits in well with how I<br />

am,” he said.<br />

PJ said he started playing<br />

rugby union when he was 13, but<br />

switched to league as it was “just<br />

much more chill and fun.”<br />

He said it also keeps fitness<br />

levels high.<br />

In early September, he will<br />

play for Haeata at the secondary<br />

schools national rugby league<br />

development tournament in<br />

Auckland. Last year Haeata went<br />

all the way to the televised final,<br />

but was beaten by Auckland’s<br />

Marcellin College.<br />

“It’s such a fun tournament,<br />

MULTI-TALENTED: Halswell’s Peni Junior Iva, 18, is a young man of many talents, both on the<br />

sports field and live on stage.<br />

playing alongside amazing<br />

players and learning off them.<br />

“We’re hoping to get ourselves<br />

[in the final] again this year and<br />

take it out. We’ve got a lot of<br />

juniors stepping up, so it’s cool<br />

for them,” he said.<br />

PJ is used to the responsibility<br />

of setting a positive example to<br />

younger peers both on and off<br />

the field.<br />

On Fridays he volunteers as a<br />

youth leader at Fusion Youth and<br />

leads the group’s band alongside<br />

his sister, Nesa.<br />

He started learning the guitar<br />

when he was nine and PJ is now<br />

able to play a range of instruments<br />

including the bass guitar,<br />

drums and piano<br />

“I try to learn as much as possible.<br />

For the youth bands for example,<br />

people come in and want<br />

to learn and I’m able to teach<br />

them any instrument,” he said.<br />

PJ’s drumming ability helped<br />

get Haeata band Proud Brown<br />

to the Rockquest Tangata Beats<br />

final in Auckland last year<br />

and win the best vocals award.<br />

This year, his duo PJ and Evile<br />

came second in the Canterbury<br />

Rockquest finals and first in the<br />

region’s Tangata Beats final.<br />

The win entered the duo into<br />

the Tangata Beats national finals<br />

- part of the Rockquest finals<br />

held in Auckland on September<br />

22.<br />

“I’m definitely looking forward<br />

to that ... just the whole atmosphere.”<br />

For his future, PJ said he would<br />

study at Ara Institute of Music<br />

Arts with an aim to eventually<br />

qualify as a music teacher.<br />

“My dream is to travel the<br />

world playing music, but if that<br />

doesn’t work out, coming back<br />

as a music teacher. You’re still<br />

working with kids and I’d still<br />

get to do what I love either way.”<br />

Jackson swims to<br />

six Canterbury records<br />

• By Jacob Page<br />

WAITIKIRI PRIMARY School<br />

swimmer Jackson Close has<br />

broken six Canterbury agegroup<br />

swimming records.<br />

The 10-year-old who swims for<br />

Jasi Swim Club, was presented<br />

with his certificates last week.<br />

Jackson, who is the youngest<br />

of eight siblings, broke records<br />

in the 50m, 100m and 200m<br />

freestyle as well as the 100m and<br />

200m individual medley and the<br />

100m butterfly at the Wharenui,<br />

Timaru and Ashburton swim<br />

meets.<br />

Jackson said he first<br />

remembered swimming when he<br />

was five-years-old.<br />

He started racing two years<br />

ago.<br />

He said he enjoyed both<br />

racing and winning and said his<br />

favourite stroke was butterfly.<br />

Jackson has recently moved<br />

to the Jasi Swim Club ‘A’ squad<br />

becoming its youngest member.<br />

“It’s quite scary but exciting,”<br />

he said. “They give me advice.”<br />

His coach, Reuben Lim, said<br />

he is a dedicated athlete for his<br />

age.<br />

“He’s very motivated to well<br />

and picks things up quickly,” he<br />

said. “Being the youngest child<br />

and having brothers and sisters<br />

who swam at his age means he’s<br />

quite well prepared.<br />

“Whenever I give him a new<br />

drill to lean he manages it<br />

quickly and when we discuss<br />

time for his races he’s very<br />

aware of what he’d like to<br />

achieve which is amazing for<br />

someone so young,” he said.<br />

Jackson said his next meet<br />

would be in early September<br />

when he competes in the North<br />

Canterbury championships in<br />

Rangiora.<br />

“I want to work on some of my<br />

other strokes,” Jackson said.<br />

“Not just my good ones.”<br />

Mairehau<br />

high School<br />

Encouraging ExcEllEncE in our community<br />

-<br />

The<br />

Principal’s<br />

Desk<br />

Mairehau high School continues as a solid, viable<br />

co-educational school in the east of christchurch.<br />

We are working with other schools, clusters, and<br />

community sector groups to develop a plan<br />

which will enhance the provision of education<br />

for all students in christchurch. all schools<br />

Harry romana, Principal<br />

want students to access quality education outcomes, to access quality teaching, and quality<br />

learning. i wish to share with you an insight into the future of education by providing our<br />

community with progress on ‘Modern learning Practices’ and collaboration. Mairehau high<br />

School continues to build and strengthen our relationship with christchurch east Schools and<br />

early childhood centres, through our involvement with the ‘Te ara Tūhura cluster.’<br />

We feel we are in a strong position to offer students opportunities which will enable them<br />

to become decent, worthwhile citizens of the world, people who will contribute to their<br />

communities. Students who pass through our school gates, learn in our classrooms, and access<br />

technology through our wireless internet provision will be well set in the future.<br />

i trust you can pass on to your friends and family, the opportunities that a co-education school<br />

such as Mairehau high School can provide for christchurch east.<br />

Towards 2019<br />

Mairehau high School is committed to innovation by focusing on strategies which improve<br />

learning outcomes for all students. Mairehau high School is now planning for 2019 and<br />

beyond with continued roll growth and a recent addition of a new Year 9 class.<br />

For several years we have implemented in our junior school modern learning practices, a<br />

programme to enhance independent learning, balanced with good old traditional teaching<br />

approaches. There are more sharing and collaborative practices between learning areas and<br />

stronger links with the use of BYoD devices in the classroom. These modern learning strategies<br />

engage and improve outcomes for all learners. learning Teams are embedding crosscurricular<br />

teaching and learning programmes in the classroom.<br />

NCEA<br />

our new government is providing opportunities for students, staff and community to<br />

‘have their Say’ as the review of our Ncea qualifications are currently underway. Ncea was<br />

introduced into secondary schools over 15 years ago and is an internationally recognised<br />

and respected qualification. This year we have a powerful opportunity to explore ways to<br />

strengthen it to meet its full potential. The government is reviewing Ncea as part of the wider<br />

national education conversation/Kōrero Mātauranga. i believe this review is important and<br />

timely, and i want to make sure we are able to encourage as many people in our community as<br />

possible to feedback on it.<br />

i am currently writing a submission to the government on potentially providing a cultural lens<br />

option across our qualifications. in my view New Zealand as a nation is beginning to grow<br />

up, as a small nation in a global environment, we tend to punch above our weight. We have a<br />

strong connection to the Black jersey, silver fern, haka, and Māori icons. Perhaps it is now time<br />

to have a mandatory cultural component as a requirement of our school qualification. ‘have<br />

your say at http.conversation.education.govt.nz”<br />

Christchurch East Schools - Te Ara Tūhura<br />

Mairehau high School is still committed to the vision with other christchurch east Schools<br />

based on the premise of sharing, collaboration and working together to enable every student<br />

in the east to be provided with opportunities to curriculum delivery and curriculum access.<br />

Many of these schools are accessing the learn, create and Share practices being implemented<br />

by successful ManaiaKalani School throughout New Zealand.<br />

i am confident in ensuring a quality education system for all students who live in the east.<br />

Students will have a choice, opportunity and access to learning. i am confident in working<br />

with other east christchurch Secondary schools on the future and quality of Teaching and<br />

learning for our communities. i take this opportunity to acknowledge all of the Te ara<br />

Tūhara christchurch east Schools/ early childhood centres for your continued support of our<br />

community.<br />

A time to enjoy<br />

i wish to conclude by saying that as Principal i get much pleasure watching students enjoying<br />

and having fun in their learning. We need to have the ability to laugh at ourselves and others,<br />

and a time to enjoy the moment. i was so proud of the students who participated in the recent<br />

Mairehau high School talent quest, Voices of canterbury choral Festival, School formal and our<br />

School production. i look forward to the many other upcoming events.<br />

Outdoor Education Programme<br />

our outdoor education programme has been in full swing this term. our Year 11 oeD students<br />

went to Bottle lake Forest and did some serious mountain biking, while our senior oeD students<br />

had a 2 day tramp in oxford along<br />

with a 3 day mountain biking camp<br />

in hanmer Springs. our Senior oeD<br />

students have 2 more camps this<br />

term – one being sea kayaking in<br />

Kaikoura with the other being a 3<br />

day camp at craigieburn, where<br />

they will participate in caving,<br />

biking, tramping, snow caving, and<br />

kayaking.<br />

We recently had a school wide<br />

snow day at Mt hutt. it was a<br />

glorious day with fresh snow and<br />

loads of sunshine. Some very tired<br />

bodies (staff included) travelled<br />

back to school after the big day<br />

out.<br />

Junior Boys’ Rugby<br />

our junior boys’ rugby team played their semi-final match against ellesmere college. We lost 76-24<br />

however the boys put up a great fight, scoring the first 2 tries in the first half and holding the lead<br />

for a good portion of the game. our congratulations to ellesmere college. Their fitness got the best<br />

of us in the end but it was a great way to end our season.<br />

Year 9 and Year 10 students chose early childcare. each student was required to complete 4 hours<br />

work experience at a local kindergarten or Preschool and then complete their project.<br />

We had such wonderful feedback from the kindergartens on our students’ willingness to learn and<br />

their attitude towards the young children and staff. Several kindergartens were sorry to see our<br />

students leave but are looking forward to repeating the project again next year.<br />

News<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

A SECOND-HAND book shop<br />

in New Brighton is helping raise<br />

funds to support community<br />

initiatives in Aranui and<br />

Linwood.<br />

The St Christopher’s Trust has<br />

gifted the ownership of the<br />

Barnabas Book Shop to the St<br />

Ambrose Anglican Church in<br />

Aranui and St Chad’s Linwood<br />

Anglican Church.<br />

The two churches now have the<br />

opportunity to put all proceeds<br />

from the book shop towards its<br />

community work in the east side<br />

of the city.<br />

The ownership was handed<br />

over due to the trust having book<br />

shops in Papanui and Bishopdale<br />

and it was too far for them to<br />

travel to New Brighton.<br />

Reverend Anne Russell-<br />

Brighty said the trust has been<br />

a long time supporter of the<br />

churches and the food banks<br />

they organise.<br />

“They have gifted it to us<br />

completely in recognition of the<br />

thought the New Brighton people<br />

have given to the book shop,”<br />

she said.<br />

Rev Russell -Brighty said the<br />

proceeds will go to community<br />

work in the east side of the city<br />

including the churches’ breakfast<br />

club, food bank, community<br />

lunches and cafes.<br />

The churches took over ownership<br />

earlier this month.<br />

“People are very excited to<br />

discover it is still there. It is not<br />

going anywhere, it is not closing<br />

down. It is going to continue the<br />

same,” Rev Russell- Brighty said.<br />

All books are donated.<br />

•For information on the book<br />

shop go to the Barnabas<br />

Book Shop Facebook<br />

page. It is open Tuesday to<br />

Saturday 10am to 4pm.<br />

PEGASUS POST<br />

Community initiatives to benefit from book shop<br />

CHARITABLE:<br />

The Barnabas<br />

Book Shop in<br />

New Brighton<br />

has been<br />

gifted to the<br />

St Ambrose<br />

Anglican<br />

Church in<br />

Aranui and<br />

St Chad’s<br />

Linwood<br />

Anglican<br />

Church. ​<br />

Phen Day Dhargyey Ling (Tibetan)<br />

- ‘A Centre for the Source of Benefit and<br />

Happiness’ is the meaning of the name given<br />

by the esteemed lama Lhagon Rinpoche.<br />

The Christchurch people have the wonderful opportunity to engage in Tibetan Buddhist<br />

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

as, Venerable Geshe Nyima Dorje (Geshe-la).<br />

The Christchurch Centre was started due<br />

to requests made to have a highly qualified<br />

authentic Tibetan Buddhist teacher<br />

residing in the city and carrying out weekly<br />

teachings, meditation classes and retreats.<br />

Fulfilling this request Geshe-la now teaches<br />

every Tuesday night and Sunday morning.<br />

• Geshe-la graduated from the largest<br />

Tibetan Buddhist monastery in the<br />

world, Sera Monastic University<br />

in South India. His main teachers<br />

included His Holiness the Dalai Lama,<br />

the late Venerable Khensur Urgyen<br />

Tseten, Venerable Khensur Kangurwa<br />

Lobsang Thupten and Venerable<br />

Khenpo Lobsang Palden.<br />

• Geshe-la arrived in New Zealand in<br />

2008 teaching originally in Dunedin<br />

then through requests moved to<br />

Christchurch 2011, ever since proving<br />

to be lively and entertaining, fresh<br />

and eloquent. Certainly he is very<br />

experienced, having taught younger<br />

monks in the monastery, in his home<br />

region of Tibet and for 3 years in<br />

the traditionally Tibetan-Buddhist<br />

country of Mongolia. Having Geshela<br />

to teach in Christchurch therefore,<br />

is quite a wonderful opportunity for<br />

people to make a deep connection<br />

with age-old teachings.<br />

• At the Centre Geshe-la’s classes focus<br />

on understanding the mind, mind<br />

training and meditation practices.<br />

ADVERTORIAL<br />

Meditation & Mind Training;<br />

• How to generate love, compassion,<br />

generosity and patience. The purpose<br />

is to create a peaceful mind. When<br />

our mind is disturbed it lacks love,<br />

compassion and patience. If we know<br />

how to generate these qualities we<br />

can create a more peaceful mind. We<br />

have accustomed our minds more to<br />

disturbances. We know that as we can<br />

see how easy it is to become angry and<br />

how much effort is needed to remain<br />

patient. Familiarisation is the key.<br />

Also if we apply our understanding<br />

to our own situation; we need to<br />

be loved and if we need this then it<br />

is fair to say others also want to be<br />

loved. If we generate this to others<br />

then we gain the benefits, as we then<br />

receive love and compassion. ‘Others’<br />

mean all beings, if we have this<br />

mental expansion there are enormous<br />

benefits.<br />

• As long as we have strong compassion<br />

we have more patience, from this we<br />

don’t get angry as quickly or as easily<br />

then we have peace of mind.<br />

• The Mind Training constitutes these<br />

kinds of practices, learning and<br />

practicing how to become acquainted<br />

with these qualities of mind, so that<br />

arises spontaneously, or at least are<br />

generated more easily.<br />

The Canterbury<br />

Horticultural Society’s<br />

fruit and vegetable<br />

growing meetings<br />

start next week.<br />

Each event will offer<br />

an opportunity to<br />

learn and discuss<br />

techniques, buy seeds<br />

and share stories<br />

SPRING flowers<br />

blossoming throughout the<br />

city is a clear signal that it’s<br />

time to get your vegetable<br />

garden set up and ready to<br />

go.<br />

To help, the Canterbury<br />

Horticultural Society has<br />

set up a specialist fruit and<br />

vegetable group focusing<br />

on edible gardening.<br />

Organisers said the<br />

group would be an<br />

invaluable way for new<br />

gardeners to learn how<br />

gardens were managed<br />

in each season and about<br />

techniques such as crop<br />

rotation, composting, and<br />

fertilising.<br />

The first session will<br />

focus on tips and tricks for<br />

growing plants from seeds.<br />

Experienced Christchurch<br />

home gardener Phil Ducker<br />

will give a demonstration<br />

on how best to plant seeds.<br />

GREEN THUMB: The manicured garden of<br />

Christchurch’s Phil Ducker.<br />

Ducker could provide<br />

answers on where to<br />

plant, how close to plant,<br />

how deep to plant, which<br />

companion plants did best<br />

together, which were better<br />

separate and which plants<br />

could be directly sown in<br />

the garden.<br />

Canterbury Horticultural<br />

Society programme coordinator<br />

Michele Moore<br />

said there was a lot to know<br />

on the subject.<br />

“As well there will be<br />

recommendations on<br />

where to get your seed and<br />

which varieties do well here<br />

in Canterbury. Each variety<br />

has particular requirements,<br />

so success depends<br />

on getting these things<br />

right,” she said.<br />

It was important to share<br />

that information down the<br />

generations, Mrs Moore<br />

said, so that it was not lost.<br />

Each month, Peter Saunders<br />

would present a segment<br />

of his running commentary<br />

A Visual Guide<br />

To Gardening Through The<br />

Year, focussing on what<br />

he has been doing in his<br />

garden. By following Mr<br />

Saunders’ progress, it was<br />

hoped other attendees<br />

could gain some insights to<br />

apply in their own gardens.<br />

Meetings would be held<br />

monthly at the Deaf Society<br />

rooms, 80 Fitzgerald<br />

Ave, with plants, books and<br />

tools available for purchase<br />

on site, as well as raffles<br />

and refreshments.<br />

show stars John Crane as Rod Stewart and<br />

Col Jones as Joe Cocker, MC’ed by none<br />

other than Austin Powers (Gary Brown).<br />

Austin Powers since 2000 and is the only<br />

he has been touring the country with the<br />

Legends, Best of British Show.<br />

Originally from Edinburgh, John<br />
