Prompt response to fix flooding issue
• By Ashleigh Monk
A MERIVALE couple who
struggled with flooding on their
property have been successful
in spurring the city council into
action.
Colin and Valerie Averill, who
live on Garden Rd, approached
the Fendalton-Waimairi-
Harewood Community Board
last week over their concerns of
flooding from the Wairarapa
Stream which runs through their
property.
Within a few days, Mr Averill
was advised the city council
would begin work on a project to
clear a large amount of weeding
and silt from the stream.
Mr Averill said the stream
overflowed regularly and not just
when it rained, which had damaged
trees.
“We learned this year that the
river was higher than it normally
was at this time of year,” he said.
Community board chairman
Sam MacDonald said the board
decided this was an “urgent”
matter.
He said it immediately sent a
request for staff to look into solutions.
“The earthquakes had essentially
lifted the land. Previously
to the earthquake they had been
having council come and clear
the stream once a year, but
because of the silt movement that
had to increase to twice a year,”
he said.
“It got worse recently and they
don’t want it to get too much
higher because it’s imposing on
their property.”
Mr Averill said the city council
had done a “great job” managing
the stream in previous years.

PROMISING YOUNG tennis player Dylan
Heap has returned to Christchurch after a
stint in France.
And while he was there he got to train
with world No 10 and French Davis Cup
captain Arnaud Clement.
That’s no mean feat.
Heap, who plays for Waimairi, gained valuable match experience,
playing in many prestigious open tournaments during the
northern summer. He won three tournaments.
Said Heap: “I definitely benefited from the experience, which
was awesome, and can’t wait to do it all again next July.”
The world’s your oyster for promising young sports people.
And a good result too for Merivale couple Colin and Valerie
Averill (page 1).
Their flooding issues are being sorted.

Call to look at heavy vehicle ban
• By Anan Zaki
THE Fendalton-Waimairi-
Harewood Community Board
has asked city council staff to
look at the viability of a heavy
vehicle ban in Avonhead.
Board chairman Sam Mac-
Donald said it asked staff last
week to report back by October
3.
The request comes after
Avonhead residents voiced their
anger over heavy traffic in the
Nor’West News last week.
“We’ve asked staff to go away
and basically bring us a report
and say what our options are
with regard to a [heavy vehicle]
ban in the area,” Mr MacDonald
said.
Staff will investigate options
for a heavy vehicle ban
on Roydvale Ave (between
Avonhead Rd and Memorial
Ave), Avonhead Rd (between
Roydvale Ave and Russley Rd)
and Hawthornden Rd.
“We just want them to be very
clear, with the current rules in
place, what delegations the community
board has [to ban heavy
vehicles] and what evidence they
would require to do that,” Mr
MacDonald said.
But he steered clear of committing
to seek a heavy vehicle
ban in Avonhead.
“Until we get advice [from
staff], it wouldn’t be appropriate
to comment,” Mr MacDonald
said.
Hawthornden Rd resident Jon
Leadbeater said the community
board’s request was good news.
“People in the area would welcome
that. It could be a big step
to improve safety.
“The big wagon trucks, they
are the things that are concerning
to the residents.”
He hoped increased publicity
will get heavy traffic banned in
the area.
“I feel the publicity can make
the difference. [A ban] would
be a great outcome for everyone
concerned,” he said.
Mr Leadbeater said last week
that heavy vehicles are using
Roydvale Ave, Hawthornden Rd
and Cutts Rd as a shortcut.
He said heavy traffic increased
after the Avonhead and Russley
Rd intersection was closed in
November 2015, as part of NZ

Transport Agency’s $112 million
Russley Rd upgrade.
It follows on from residents
in Fendalton and Wigram also
voicing opposition to heavy
vehicles travelling through residential
areas.
Fendalton residents last
month lost their bid to ban
heavy vehicles from the Glandovey
and Idris Rd intersection.
Lady Wigram Retirement Village
residents on Lodestar Ave
also complained about heavy
traffic last year.

Young dancers in The Nutcracker
• By Ashleigh Monk
FIVE ST Andrew’s College
students will be dreaming
of sugar plum fairies after
scoring parts in the Royal New
Zealand Ballet’s rendition of The
Nutcracker.
Eilish John, Jai Bartlett, Kate
McFerran, Charlotte Brown
and Anja Sander are part of the
school’s ballet academy and will
feature in the show at the Isaac
Theatre Royal from November
22.
Eilish, 11, and Jai, 12, said they
were “so excited” to have the
opportunity to dance alongside
some of the country’s best ballerinas.
“We got sent along to do an
audition, and then maybe about
a month later you either got an
email saying ‘sorry you haven’t
made it’ or ‘you made it’,” Eilish
said.
“We got the email to say we’d
made it and it was brilliant,” Jai
said.
Jai has been learning ballet
since he was four-years-old.
“I always liked dancing to
music as a child, whether that be
with my mum or just alone,” he
said.
“I started doing ballet before
coming to St Andrew’s, but as
soon as the ballet programme
opened in 2011 I jumped straight
in. I think I was the ‘naughty
duckling’ for one of my first performances
there.”
Eilish joined the St Andrew’s
College Ballet Academy four
years ago.
“I had just moved to Christchurch
and was a bit nervous about
everything, and I wanted to try
some new things. So when ballet
came up I thought I’d give it a go,
and I fell in love with it,” she said.
The pair practised for hours
each week and both played parts
in last year’s school production of
The Nutcracker.
About 60 children had been
picked to play parts in Christch-

Play It Strange chief executive
Mike Chunn said he was
“amazed” at the talent that came
out of Christchurch. “I have the
best job in the world, listening to
these songs, it’s that simple.”
Several famous New Zealand
artists had been featured on the
album in past years, including
Kimbra, Annah Mac, and Georgia
Nott from the band Broods.
Mr Chunn started Play it
Strange in 2004. The first album
featured 19 songs, and this year’s
album will include more than 40
out of the 370 entries.
“Every single day, every single
secondary school student will
hear a recorded song, and the
craft of writing them is completely
absent from life at school. Why?
So that’s what I thought, let’s do
something about it,” he said.
Each finalist has been given
funding to professionally record
their song to be included on the
album, which will be released by
the end of the year.

A THIEF was chased by staff at
a souvlaki shop and ended up
jumping a fence after he stole a
donation box.
The suspect left Redwood
Souvlaki with the box, which
held about $100 in donations
for Cholmondeley Children’s
Centre.
Shop manager Arshdeep
Dhillon said he and his staff were
at the back of the store when the
man pulled the box from the
front counter.
“He just quietly came in and
grabbed it and ran off,” he said.
“When he ran we tried to
catch him, but he ran so fast and
jumped over a fence.”
He said although there wasn’t
a lot of money in the donation
box, he was upset someone had
taken it. “It’s awful, the money is
supposed to be for those kids.”
The man was wearing a blue

Solution found to fix flooding issue
•From page 1
But he was glad a long-term fix
was being implemented.
“We’re used to getting a bit of
flooding when it rained,
but what we’re concerned
about is the higher
average flow. There’s a
difference between the
flash flooding and the
longer term flooding, and
we’ve lost a few trees over
the year because of the
higher average flow,” Mr
Averill said.
He said he and his
wife were not the only ones
who had flooding issues as their
neighbours’ properties were also
affected.
“There’s a bit of an island that
we share with our neighbours
at the side of our property, and
that’s given us a bit of a problem.
The river does come up quite
quickly, and our island nearly
goes underwater.”
Mr Averill said he
was notified by the city
council that work would
start yesterday to clear
weeds and silt from the
stream along about a
1km stretch from Mona
Vale to the couple’s
Sam property.
MacDonald “It’ll take about two or
three weeks and they’ll
get rid of it, which is very good
news for us.”

the eating, so we’re waiting with
baited breath to see if it turns out
well,” Mr Averill said

Top chippie builds new career
• By Ashleigh Monk
AFTER STUDYING fine arts at
Canterbury University, St Albans
resident Peter Ravn decided he
wanted to work with his hands.
His dream is to build sets for
theatre productions – and what
better way to gain the necessary
skills than with a carpentry apprenticeship?
Now the 26-year-old has been
named the Central South Island
Registered Master Builders Carters
apprentice of the
year.
Mr Ravn trained under the
Building and Construction
Industry Training Organisation
and is employed by Armitage
Williams Construction Ltd.
He said winning the award was
“pretty overwhelming”.
“It’s a pretty big honour for me
and the company I work for.”
“I gave it a go last year and
wasn’t successful, so I tried again
this year. It was a motivation to
see how you faced off against
your contemporaries”
The regional competition involved
building something from
scratch in just two hours. Mr
Ravn built a tool box.
“Having to deal with your
nerves and having to deal with
industry leaders, I definitely
think it was a massive thing you

need to overcome. So different to
when you are working on site.”
After finishing high school,
Mr Ravn began a fine arts degree
at Canterbury University before
securing the opportunity to train
as a carpenter.
“I like making things, so I
thought I would give it a go and
really enjoyed it and here I am
now. In Christchurch there was a
lot of demand.”
“The building industry is
amazing, and we do things that
other people can’t do, we create,
and you get paid to learn. Definitely
give it a go and see where
you stand.”
Mr Ravn will take part in the
national competition in Auckland
on November 9.

Chlorine-free
north-west
one step closer
• By Ashleigh Monk
THE NORTH-WEST is one
step closer to being chlorine-free
as the construction of a new
pump station finishes.
The new Gardiners pump
station has been constructed in
Harewood Park, replacing the
old Harewood pump station.
City council planning and
delivery manager John Moore
said the project cost $6.05 million
including investigation,
design, construction, project
management, construction and
commissioning of the pump station,
suction tank, diesel tank,
two deep wells, access road and
drainage.
“The pump station was built
to replace Harewood pump station,
which had a shallow well,
and also to provide additional
supply capacity for growth in
the north-west area, particularly
in Highsted and Upper Styx,”
he said.
The city council stopped chlorinating
the Thompsons water
pump station in late August,
bringing the total number of
pump stations across the city
not being chlorinated to eight.
Including the Gardiners
pump Station, that number was
now nine.

but the MacFarlane Park Centre
has opened in Shirley.
The centre will serve as a community
hub alongside the original
MacFarlane Park Neighbourhood
Centre.
Shirley Community Trust manager
Jane Mitchell said she was
“overwhelmed” by the support
from the community.
“We had probably about 120
people there, and I think there
would have been more if the
weather was better . . . It was a
lovely atmosphere.”
The building, which had a
large meeting room, two offices,
a kitchen and toilets, was
donated to the city by the Lions
Clubs International Foundation
following the February 22, 2011,
earthquake.
It was used as the temporary
St Albans Community Centre
on Colombo St before moving to
Shirley.The Shirley Community
Trust had been operating out of
the MacFarlane Park Neighbourhood
Centre, a small building at
the park, for 16 years.
“We’ve had the neighbourhood
centre, but this now will allow us
to grow the things we do because
it’s a bigger space. Plus, there’s an
opportunity for other groups to

Trust’s new centre.
come and hire the centre so that
offers more to the community,”
she said.
There were some delays to the
process as the city council initially
estimated the cost to relocate
the building would be $100,000.
However, more detailed planning
revealed it would cost $225,000.
The initial $100,000 was approved
through the city council’s
Annual Plan, and an additional
$125,000 was fast tracked for
the move. The trust facilitated
community meals, after school
programmes, touch rugby, food
banks, parenting courses, numeracy
and literacy classes, and
youth workers in local schools.
Experience Chinese culture
• By Ashleigh Monk
A CHINESE tea ceremony,
calligraphy and martial arts are
on the cards for the Christchurch
Boys’ High School Chinese
Immersion Day.
The event is in its fifth year and
gives students and their families
across the city the chance to
experience Chinese culture firsthand.
Christchurch Boys’ High
School head of Chinese Huili
Feng said the day had attracted
hundreds of visitors in previous
years.
“The aim is to create more
opportunities for students from
other schools who do not have
Chinese language courses to
get some experience in Chinese
culture,” she said.
“The event has become popular
with around 500 participants last
year.”
Activities on the day include
Chinese painting, paper cutting,
knots, traditional games, folk
dance, a culture quiz and the
opportunity to learn Chinese
characters and numbers.
Ms Feng said she aimed to
encourage people to take part in
as many activities as possible and
even had an incentive.
“Each participant is given a
booklet with the list of activities.
KNOT MESSING AROUND: Students have a go at making
Chinese knots at last year’s Chinese Immersion Day.
The participants are required to
collect a sticker or stamp for the
completion of each activity,” she
said.
“At the end of the event, they
can collect a reward according to
the number of stickers or stamps
they have collected.”
•The free Chinese
Immersion Day will be held
on September 15 from
1.30-4.30pm in the

Fire rages, homes at risk
Mooar, Davidson eye each other up
• By Ashleigh Monk
TRAINEE BOXERS Mike
Davidson and Brad Mooar are
both feeling pretty confident as
their big fight draws closer.
The Papanui Ward city
councillor and Crusaders
assistant coach are set to battle it
out in the ring at this year’s Fight
for Christchurch on November 3.
Mooar’s campaign manager
Ben Harris organised an event
held on Thursday night to raise
extra funds for Mooar’s chosen
charity, Conductive Education
Canterbury.
The event, which was attended
by about 45 people, saw $9100
raised.
“We had some fantastic
auction items, and we sold some
sponsorship on the singlet I’ll be
wearing for the fight,” he said.
“I’ve been blown away by the
support so far. There have been
some really generous donations
and people keen to support us. It
just shows what people are wiling
to do when the cause is a good
one.”
He said he was having fun
learning the mechanics of boxing
in the lead up to the fight.
“I’m just chipping away really,
it’s going as well as it can,” Mooar

said.
“I’m just working hard on fitness
and the real fundamentals
of protecting myself and the
footwork. It’s been awesome,
and I’m in great hands with my
trainer . . . It’s definitely going
to be one hell of a challenge, no
doubt Mike has been training
hard as well.”
Davidson has experience with
endurance sports and did the
Coast to Coast earlier this year,
but had never tried boxing.
“It’s been great so far, I’m having
fun . . . I’m definitely using
a lot of different muscles that I
don’t normally use, I’m feeling it
in my upper-body,” he said.
“I guess it’s just a matter of getting
in the ring and sparring, and
getting to know what it feels like
to be punched.”
Davidson is raising money for
Cure Kids, and has so far raised
more than $1200 on his Givealittle
page.
“It’s not about the fight, it’s
not about hurting each other, it’s
about raising money for some really
worthy charities,” he said.
“I’m just trying to encourage
as many people as possible to
donate, because it’s such a good
cause, Cure Kids. Even small
amounts, it all adds up, the more
the merrier.”
He said he hoped to host a raffle
closer to the fight to assist in
his fundraising efforts.

Costume hire that
promotes sustainability
IN A world where
single-use products and
fast fashion has become
the norm, Gabrielle Heath,
owner of Petticoat Lane
Costume Hire, has recently
seen a change for the good
within her industry.
She said that over the last
two years she had noticed
a significant shift back to
people wanting to hire
costumes as opposed to
purchasing them.
“Young people have a
big consciousness around
sustainability,” Mrs Heath
said.
“People, in general, are
mindful about what they
purchase.”
The trend to buy costumes
online has not impacted
the business as she
said people still enjoy coming
in to try on costumes
and receive personalised
fittings and accessories.
For most people, hiring

practical, and has
an ethical value.
Creating a sustainable
business practice has always
been part of her business
model. Costumes are
designed in-house, fabric
sourced locally, and made
either in the company’s
studio or contracted out to
local sewers.
With over 14,000 hire
items available, Mrs Heath
said that the most popular
of all time was the Scoobie
Doo costume.
Costumes were regularly
hired out for birthdays,
parties, corporate events,
advertising and television,
work conferences,
children’s school dress-up
days, and NCEA students
studying history and
drama.
“As a destination store,
we have one-of-a-kind costumes,

Fire rages, homes at risk
Putting smiles on the faces of strangers
• By Ashleigh Monk
SMALL ACTS of kindness
“make the world a better place”
- at least, that’s what Feebee
Newlands believes.
Mrs Newlands is the founder
of Pay It Forward, a volunteer
organisation which has been
dedicated to carrying our
random acts of kindness for the
past five years.
On September 1, the 15th
New Zealand Random Acts of
Kindness Day, Mrs Newlands
and her team armed themselves
with flowers and lollies to give
out around the city.
“It was a lot of fun this year, we
ran into a lot of people who had
bad days and they said ‘thank
goodness you’ve come along and
cheered me up, I feel so happy
now’,” she said.
“There were a lot of emotions
this year, there have obviously
been some tough times for
people, so it’s just a matter
of bringing some cheer to
Christchurch.”
The group visited Ronald
McDonald House, the YMCA,
the Margaret Mahy Family
Playground, Christchurch
Charity Hospital, Ngaio Marsh
Retirement Village and others.
“It was a day of joy and
excitement, and just people
getting out of their comfort zone
. . . It’s so great to have some fun
with the kids, and the elderly
were just beside themselves
getting flowers and chocolates.”
This year’s theme was suicide
awareness, and Mrs Newlands
said the support from local
sponsors had been “incredible”.
“We had a focus on suicide
awareness which was tough
because two of the girls have lost

their a mother, brother and son
to suicide,” she said.
“Everything gets donated,
it’s amazing. Nona [general
manager] from Moffat’s Flower
Company, as soon as she found
out it was for suicide awareness,
she just gave us bucket-loads of
flowers, it was incredible.”
Mrs Newlands started the Pay
It Forward group five years ago.
She said she wanted to inspire
others to perform random acts
of kindness not only just on
September 1, but all year round.
“It’s pretty powerful. It’s a great
message of remembering to reach
out, build a better community
and love and support one
another,” she said.
“It’s a really important day,
and we want to create that ripple
effect. There are people that do
random acts of kindness all the
time, but there are some that
don’t do it, and we want to get
people to start doing it all the
time.”
She said she wanted to expand
Pay It Forward to include people
from all over the country,
encouraging them to reach out to
their own communities.
“It’s all about linking people
from all over New Zealand up,”
she said.
“I’m trying to collect people
from all over New Zealand to
make the magic happen. We have
some guys in Nelson, we had
someone from Oamaru, some
from Hokitika, people from
Auckland.”
After advocating strongly for
our residents for the three laning
of the Waimakariri Bridge and
a cycle lane with my petition to
NZTA last year, it’s exciting to
see construction is underway.
This project shows how powerful
our voices can be when we
work together. My petition was
about cementing the benefits of
National’s major roading projects
such as the Western Belfast
Bypass, which has significantly
shortened travel times.
Our young people are
submitting their applications to
be my Youth MP 2019 and, once
again, I am impressed by their
calibre.
The deadline is Monday 8
October at 5pm. It’s a great
opportunity for our young people
to put their passion for social
issues into action.
Ahead of the last Youth
Parliament, my Youth MP and
I held roadshows around the
electorate to hear the views of
our young people. If you are
interested, please ring my office
on 03 3270514 for details.
I am working with Northwood
residents to have their concerns
heard by NZTA about the Main
North Road/Radcliffe Road
intersection. They’re concerned
pedestrians don’t have sufficient
time to cross safely, and that
some motorists are doing illegal
u-turns, which is increasing the
dangers. After meeting with
residents, I’ve written to NZTA
requesting a meeting to explore
solutions such as changing the
signal phasing of the traffic lights.
It was an easy decision for
me to get behind the YMCA
Canterbury Youth Awards again
this year to acknowledge how
much our young people are
giving back to their communities.
Well done to Thomas Robson
for winning the Matt Doocey
Supreme Youth Award for
Waimakariri for your dedication in
serving our community.

email Murray Williams at papanuiheritage@gmail.com or phone 3554 841.
Too many St Andrew’s for Papanui
Papanui Heritage
group chairman Murray
Williams investigates how
Hartley Ave was named
THE AREA of south Papanui,
between Normans and Blighs
Rds was originally Rural Section
135.
Eventually this became known
as the Strowan block because of
its proximity to George Gatonby
Stead’s property of that name,
which became St Andrew’s College
in 1916.
At this stage much of RS 135
had already been developed as
a residential area, for example,
Watford St in the 1890s and
Hawthorne St in the previous
decade.
Leonard Hart, (the subject
of last month’s column) in association
with H. Davey, had
acquired land that ran from the
western end of Hawthorne St as
far as Normans Rd. In 1924, they
decided to develop this area into
a residential street.
In The Press of March 3, 1924,
their joint agents, Jones, Mc-
Crostie and Co. and Pyne, Gould
& Guinness, announced an
auction for the building sections
in the new street to be called St
Andrews Tce.
The lots ranged in size from
530 to 960 m 2 . The agents noted
the ideal location; the proximity
of schools (St Andrew’s and
Waimairi) while Elmwood Park
and handy tram stops were also
mentioned.
The tendency of real estate
agents to indulge in hyperbole
was certainly alive and well in
the 1920s.
Potential buyers were assured
that all sections ‘were as level as
a bowling green’, that ‘the garden
soil was of the finest and would
grow anything’, and that the new
owners would ‘get all the sun that
shines’.
A final statement in smaller
print claimed that ‘High pressure
water supply is a certain distance
up St Andrews Tce.’
By 1938, the existence of St
Andrews Tce, College Avenue
and St Andrews Square, all in a
relatively small area close to St
Andrew’s College, was leading
to confusion and the city council
decided to rename the former to
commemorate the contribution
that Leonard Hart had made to
Papanui.
However the city already had
a Hart St (in Woolston) and thus
a compromise was to change
the name of St Andrews Tce to

knowledge of how

Hartley Ave.
Ninety-six years later this street
is a pleasant residential area.
Although there are some
examples of modern houses,
Hartley Ave also retains a period
charm; there are at least 19 examples
of Californian bungalows
dating to the development of the
street in the 1920s and a smattering
of elegant English bungalows
constructed in the 1930s.

Rapid rowing rise
for talented teen
• By Jacob Page
FORMER ST Andrew’s College rower
Ben Taylor is achieving his goals so
quickly he’s having to create new ones.
The 18-year-old, who
rows for Avon, had an impressive
world under-23
championships in Poland
where his coxed four took
silver.
He is now in Bulgaria
with the New Zealand
elite team for the world
championships, which got
under way over the weekend,
in the reserve men’s
pair with Joe Wright.
“It’s been an unbelievable
18 months,” he said.
“I need to set new goals
because I’ve achieved so
many of my two-to-five
year ones.”
Taylor was part of the winning Maadi
Cup squad in 2017 which not only
brought back the top prize for the first
time in the college’s history, but the
Springbok Shield as well.
Rowing is in Taylor’s blood, the last
time the school raised the shield was
when his father, Andrew, was in the boat
34 years ago.
Ben Taylor
While Taylor is essentially injury-cover
in Bulgaria he said he was still making
the most of the elite environment.
“It’s been very welcoming so far,” he
said.
“In training for the
event, it’s been great to
watch how some of the
more experienced guys go
about their business.’’
Taylor said he had a
bond with top Kiwi singlesculler
and fellow former
St Andrew’s College rower,
Robbie Manson.
“Robbie has been super
helpful,” he said.
“He doesn’t give you a
lot of help but if you ask
for it, he’ll make the time.”
Taylor said his rapid rise
had allowed him to realistically
dream about being
part of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
“I definitely wouldn’t have dreamed
about that 18 months ago,” Taylor said.
He said he wouldn’t mind what boat
he was put into.
“It doesn’t matter I’ve been looking at
everything as an opportunity so far so
I’ll try to make the best out of any situation.”

Heaps to learn in France
CANTERBURY’S No 2 ranked
tennis player Dylan Heap has
returned from France where he
polished his ground strokes with
former world No 10 and French
Davis Cup captain Arnaud
Clement.
The seven-week trip also gave
the 18-year-old Waimairi player’s
valuable match experience,
playing in many prestigious
open tournaments during the
northern hemisphere summer.
In all, he played 25 matches,
winning 19, and winning three
tournaments in the process - the
Rogne, Auriol and Ventabren
opens.
Heap said his time with
Clement was invaluable.
“It was such a step-up on
hitting balls in Christchurch
and he was so humble,” he said.
“He told me to make sure I keep
my passion for the sport as I
progress, even during the tough
time.”
Based in Aix-en-Provence and
playing at the Country Club
Aixois, he enjoyed the challenge
of practising with Clement and
playing many friendly matches
with a multitude of strong
up-and-coming French tennis
players aged between 16 and
25-years-old. Heap, a year 13
student at Christ’s College, loved
the chance to play some great
tennis and to beat many players
EXPERIENCE: Dylan Heap (right) with Arnaud Clement, former world number 10, after a practice
session in Aix-en-Provence.
above his level.
“I definitely benefited from the
experience, which was awesome,
and can’t wait to do it all again
next July,” he said.
Heap spent the first three
weeks in France in the company
of his parents, and the last
three with his Waimairi club
coach and fellow member of the
premier team, Remi Feneon.
Dylan was NZ national
under-16 singles and doubles
champion for the last two
seasons.
He will play premier grade for
Waimairi again this summer.
Before the New Zealand
season gets underway, Heap will
visit the United States to look
at universities offering sports
scholarships. He hopes that next
year will see him studying and
playing tennis there.
SPORTS

CHRISTCHURCH will play
host to the indoor cricket club
nationals on Thursday.
It is the first time Christchurch
has held the tournament since
2008 and a record 40 teams have
entered across the grades.
The open men’s and under-21
boy’s grades will be played at the
refurbished Howzat Riccarton
site, while the premier men’s and
over-40 men’s will be played at
Action Indoor Sports Hornby.
Indoor Cricket New Zealand
chief executive Mark Cini said it
was a thrill for Christchurch to
host the tournament again.
He said the February 22, 2011,
earthquake had made hosting
events challenging and he saw it
as a positive step.
There will also be a Gold Coast
team in the over-40 competition
for a bit of a trans-Tasman flavour.
There are Christchurch teams
throughout all the grades.
Games start on Thursday morning
and run late into the night
with finals days on Saturday.

Knitting keeps babies warm
INMATES ARE doing their bit
to keep newborn babies cosy this
month.
One hundred baby beanies
crocheted by prisoners have
been donated to newborns at
Christchurch Women’s Hospital.
The Christchurch Women’s
Prison’s knit project is growing
in popularity and currently
involves nine novice and
experienced knitters.
Poppy, who is part of the
prison group, is a very keen
knitter.
Over the past few months, she
has knitted 83 of the hats.
“I enjoy knitting and through
my knitting, I can do something
useful and give something
back to society while I am
incarcerated,” she said.
“I am approached by other
prisoners and teach them to knit
from basics to cables. I think it
is good for the younger women,
keeping them busy.”
Christchurch Women’s Prison
residential manager Tracy Tyro
said it is a constructive activity
for inmates.
“They appreciate being able
to do something positive with
their spare time. It can be a very
therapeutic activity. The knitting
group can be a good quiet space
for the women.”
“This is a project that really
appeals to the women, many
of whom have children and
grandchildren of their own. They
appreciate the difference a hat
can make to keeping little ones
warm. It offers the women an
opportunity to create something
pretty and practical for some
of our community’s most
vulnerable.”
She said in addition to helping
someone in the community, the
women have learnt other skills.
“They learn to work and be
in a group, to take instruction
and share their knowledge, they
can be creative and express
themselves in new ways. All of
these skills will be useful for
when they are released.”
The project has been

Auction: Thursday, 27 September 2018 Unless Sold Prior
5 bedrooms | 2 bathrooms | 3 toilets | 1 living room | 1 dining room | 1 office/study | 2 car-garage | 3 off-street parks | Listing #BE193116
With story book charm and grand street
appeal this home was always designed
to impress and never more so than now,
with modern homes all beginning to look
the same. The wide front portico with its
black and white chequered floor opens
into an expansive entry area with polished
wood floors, white wood panelling and the
stairway to the upstairs rooms. Impeccably
updated interiors are tasteful and elegant.
The family living and dining spaces and
kitchen are nicely connected to the central
entrance area with a second formal living
room on the opposite side. Doors can be
flung open to create large flowing spaces
or closed off for a more cosy, intimate
feel. A central wood burner efficiently
heats all the spaces with the warm glow
of real flame. The designer kitchen, all
in warm tones of white with extra wide,
freestanding oven, fits perfectly with
the character of the home while adding
contemporary convenience. A butler’s
pantry helps keep mess to a minimum
and adds a ton of storage. Adjacent to the
dining room, there is a sizeable laundry
with a showering and wash area. The
communal spaces enjoy views over the
treetops and all day sun.
There are as many as six bedrooms,
one downstairs with an ensuite and the
others all upstairs along with the main
bathroom. From the upstairs rooms there
are lovely views over the city ensuring
something to capture the eye day or night.
This substantial family home affords the
flexibility to configure it to suit your needs
with plenty of options for families of all
shapes and sizes.

Heat Pumps for the last 15 years.
We are proud to offer the Aqua-inverter HP – the most silent heat
pump ever. By adjusting compressor speed hertz by hertz, and fan
speed round by round, it matches pool temperature intelligently
with continuous & optimal efficiency. Due to the low-speed-running
philosophy, it brings you a 10 times quieter swimming experience
during more than 95% of the pool season.
For the best advice regarding which heat pump would be best for
you, give Pool Land a call to discuss your swimming pool set up.
