NEW SILVER Ferns assistant<br />
coach Debbie Fuller credits<br />
her upbringing in North New<br />
Brighton as a fortunate place to<br />
start her career.<br />
The 47-year-old grew up in<br />
North New Brighton and said<br />
her first memory of netball<br />
came watching her mother,<br />
Claire Matoe, play at the Hagley<br />
Park netball courts, play for<br />
Canterbury and trial for the<br />
Silver Ferns.<br />
“I just remember how lucky I<br />
was to grow up there,” she said.<br />
“The beach was our haven,<br />
I remember Thomson Park<br />
and the skate park and New<br />
Brighton Mall was humming on<br />
a Saturday.<br />

“Mum still lives in South New<br />
Brighton and we love visiting her<br />
and having a look around.”<br />
Fuller went to North New<br />
Brighton School where she first<br />
started playing netball.<br />
When she went to Aranui<br />
High School she played for the<br />
New Brighton club.<br />
We were never the glamorous<br />
club but always competed well<br />

against the top clubs like Hearts<br />
and St Nicks.”<br />
In the late 1980s, she transferred<br />
to Hearts and was noticed<br />
for representative teams.<br />
Fuller, a defender, cracked the<br />
Canterbury team and made her<br />
debut for New Zealand against<br />
Jamaica in 1994. She played eight<br />
tests between 1994 and 1996.<br />

Eastgate<br />
bus hub<br />
one step<br />
closer<br />
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />
EASTGATE MALL may have<br />
the third busiest bus interchange<br />
in the city, but it is still without<br />
an integrated transport hub.<br />
The Linwood-Central-<br />
Heathcote Community<br />
Board has supported a<br />
recommendation from<br />
the Linwood Eastgate Area<br />
Integrated Transport Study to<br />
have a bus hub installed outside<br />
the centre.<br />
Further action recommended<br />
in the report included<br />
investigating a signalised<br />
crossing on Buckleys Rd<br />
across from Eastgate Mall and<br />
providing cycle parking facilities<br />
outside the centre.<br />
But the board wants to<br />
understand how Environment<br />
Canterbury’s recent changes to<br />
bus routes as part of its Long<br />
Term Plan will affect the area<br />
before it goes ahead with the<br />
plan. It has also requested a city<br />
council and community board<br />
joint seminar with ECan on the<br />
Canterbury Regional Public<br />
Transport Plan.<br />
The transport plan, which<br />
shapes the future of the bus services<br />
in the city, is not expected<br />
to be known until March.<br />

WE’VE GOT a profile on that somewhat<br />
controversial figure in David East (pages<br />
6-7).<br />
It ran in The Star (the big boy of our<br />
newspaper stable) but it would have<br />
been remiss not to also publish it in East’s<br />
local paper.<br />
City councillors and other politicians are often targets for the<br />
media. In many cases it is totally justified.<br />
I’m often heard around the office wondering why some public<br />
figures won’t put their proverbials on the line when it comes to<br />
significant community issues.<br />
So it was refreshing when East and others put their heads out<br />
of the trench over the District Plan matter that landed them in<br />
hot water.<br />
But it’s worked. There will be an independent inquiry over the<br />
matter.<br />

Community spirit triumphs<br />
• By Sophie Cornish and Georgia<br />
O’Connor-Harding<br />
ACTION TAKEN to get a<br />
missing clause back into the<br />
city’s District Plan has been<br />
applauded by the Southshore<br />
Residents’ Association.<br />
The city council<br />
unanimously<br />
voted and requested<br />
urgency<br />
on the matter<br />
so that the<br />
city’s District<br />
Plan could be<br />
David East<br />
amended last<br />
Thursday.<br />
Councillor<br />
David East landed himself in<br />
hot water when he alleged the<br />
omission of a discretionary rule<br />
in the city council’s High Flood<br />
Hazard Management Area<br />
policy was against the intentions<br />
of the replacement District Plan<br />
independent hearing’s panel.<br />
Without the discretionary<br />
rule known as the enable clause<br />
residents are finding it almost<br />
impossible to build or extend<br />
their properties within the High<br />
Flood Hazard Management<br />
Area,<br />
Cr East and Burwood-Coastal<br />
Community Board members<br />
Tim Sintes and Kim Money<br />
faced council disciplinary action<br />
over their outspoken views.<br />
A meeting with council chiefs<br />
on Thursday to discuss the matter<br />
was adjourned. Their stand,<br />
though, led to huge support from<br />
people in the eastern suburbs.<br />
Mayor Lianne Dalziel who was<br />
one of the instigators of the disciplinary<br />
proceedings, has now<br />
led an independent inquiry into<br />
the omission of the discretionary<br />
rule.<br />
Southshore Residents’<br />
Association chairwoman Lynda<br />
Burdekin said the independent<br />
inquiry was welcomed.<br />
“It is not something that is<br />
going to happen overnight. We<br />
will be watching the process<br />
with interest and hoping the<br />
Government and city council get<br />
something done promptly,” she<br />
said.<br />
Last Tuesday more than 300<br />
people attended a public meeting<br />
at the New Brighton Club.<br />
They decided to support Cr<br />
East, Mr Sintes’ and Ms Money’s<br />
stand.<br />
A motion passed at the meeting<br />
fully supported their actions<br />
and also stated the meeting<br />
strongly objected to the code of<br />
conduct complaints and request<br />
they be withdrawn.<br />
PROGRESS:<br />
The Southshore<br />
Residents<br />
Association is<br />
pleased a notice of<br />
motion has been<br />
made by the city<br />
council to have a<br />
missing clause in<br />
the city’s district<br />
plan put back in.<br />
It also called for the<br />
Christchurch Coastal<br />
Residents’ United group to<br />
write on its behalf jointly, to<br />
the Prime Minister Jacinda<br />
Ardern, Minister of Local<br />
Government Nanaia Mahuta<br />
and Minister of the Greater<br />
Christchurch Regeneration<br />
Megan Woods.<br />
The letter would advise that<br />
they fully support the efforts of<br />
the elected members and request<br />
an independent inquiry and<br />
subsequent reinstatement on the<br />
relevant clause.<br />

SECURITY REMINDER<br />
Police are reminding the public<br />
to securely lock and remove<br />
valuables from their cars as the<br />
weather begins to warm up. New<br />
Brighton Senior Constable Shane<br />
Thompson said there will be a lot<br />
more people using the wetlands,<br />
walkways and beaches as a result.<br />
“If you are out and about make<br />
sure your vehicles are parked<br />
in areas where there is a lot of<br />
public access,” he said. Constable<br />
Thompson said police do tend<br />
to notice a spike in car break- ins<br />
over the summer.<br />
RICHMOND MAINTENANCE<br />
Council staff are continuing work<br />
on the maintenance programme<br />
for Richmond and developing<br />
a clear understanding of the<br />
requirements for the work to be<br />
done. Both the capital team and<br />
the maintenance team have been<br />
working closely together to ensure<br />
that resources are maximised.<br />
Maintenance work has been<br />
carried out in the area including<br />
clearing sumps, sweeping and<br />
channel clearing. This has resulted<br />
in reduced incidences of flooding<br />
in Crystal, Randall, Petrie,<br />
Warden, Dudley and Slater streets<br />
in recent rain events. Staff are<br />
working on the development of a<br />
regular newsletter to the community<br />
and the Papanui-Innes Community<br />

is well informed.<br />

Red zone barrier changes for Burwood<br />
Fire rages, homes at risk<br />
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />
ROAD BARRIERS making it<br />
difficult to access Donnell Sports<br />
Park in Burwood and causing<br />
anti social behaviour issues in the<br />
red zone will be changed.<br />
The city council will take away<br />
road barriers on Stour Drive and<br />
Brooker Ave to make it easier for<br />
the public to get to the park.<br />
It will mean<br />
people will be<br />
able to travel<br />
from New<br />
Brighton Rd,<br />
down Stour<br />
Drive to Brooker<br />
Glenn<br />
Livingstone<br />
Ave to get to<br />
the park, as<br />
well as from<br />
Kingsbridge<br />
Drive through to Brooker Ave.<br />
But full barriers will be placed<br />
at Prior Close, Istana Place,<br />
Azure Place and Dunair Drive at<br />
the Brooker Ave end.<br />
This will be to stop illegal<br />
rubbish dumping and boy racers<br />
from destroying vegetation in<br />
the red zone.<br />
It was expected the barriers<br />
would begin to be changed from<br />
yesterday.<br />
It comes after the Coastal<br />
Burwood Community Board,<br />
the Burwood East Residents’<br />
Association and Land<br />
BLOCK: Extended road barriers, like the one above, are being removed in streets around<br />
Burwood to allow better access to Donnell Sports Park.<br />
Information New Zealand met<br />
recently to discuss ongoing<br />
issues with the red zone barriers.<br />
<strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong> reported in May<br />
that BERA sent a letter to the<br />
community board calling for<br />
the placement of barriers to be<br />
reviewed as a result of boy racers<br />
doing burnouts in the red zone.<br />
BERA committee member Sue<br />
Roper said it was a productive<br />
meeting and the group is pleased<br />
because the changes it agreed on<br />
will be going through.<br />
“We are excited about the fact<br />
people will now be able to have<br />
freer access to Donnell Sports<br />
Park especially now it is going to<br />
be upgraded and fixed up,” she<br />
said.<br />
Funding of $600,000 has been<br />
secured in the city council’s<br />
Long Term Plan to upgrade the<br />
park.<br />
It was also agreed at the<br />
meeting if further rubbish<br />
dumping and illegal use of cars<br />
on the street after dark were to<br />
continue, the city council and<br />
community board would review<br />
the barriers again.<br />
City councillor Glenn<br />
Livingstone said it has been a<br />
great collaborative effort because<br />
it means the community can<br />
take pride in the park.<br />
He said due to the roads<br />
opening in the area, it may mean<br />
the city council will need to<br />
consider fixing Brooker Ave in<br />
the future.<br />
Cr Livingstone said he is<br />
considering promoting the idea<br />
through the community board.<br />

Controversial councillor’s<br />
Coastal Ward city<br />
councillor David East<br />
landed himself in hot<br />
water when he held<br />
a press conference<br />
calling for an<br />
independent inquiry<br />
into an erased clause in<br />
the city’s District Plan.<br />
He speaks to reporter<br />
Sophie Cornish about<br />
his life outside of local<br />
politics<br />
Where did your involvement<br />
in the east all begin?<br />
I am a fourth-generation<br />
resident of the area. I was born<br />
in the Burwood area, where my<br />
parents farmed in horticulture.<br />
When I got married, I moved<br />
back into the area, so I have been<br />
essentially back since 1980. But as<br />
I said, my parents, grandparents<br />
and great-grandparents on both<br />
sides of the family all lived in the<br />
North Beach or New Brighton<br />
area. I live in North Beach now.<br />
Where did you grow up?<br />
I started at Burwood School,<br />
then my father brought land on<br />
Marshland Rd and farmed there.<br />
So I grew up in a little place<br />
called Ouruhia, at the top end of<br />
Marshland Rd. I went to school<br />
there, then went to Shirley Boys’<br />
High School and Canterbury<br />
University. I graduated with a<br />
Bachelor of Science in geography<br />
and geology.<br />
I know you are a life member<br />
of Surf Life Saving New<br />
Zealand, when did you become<br />
involved in that?<br />
I have been a member of the<br />
North Beach Surf Life Saving<br />
Club since 1968. In fact, I<br />
became a life member of North<br />
Beach in 2000, a life member of<br />
Canterbury in 2006 and New<br />
Zealand in 2011. In a couple<br />
of weeks time I am due to<br />
receive a 50 year badge for my<br />
MAKING WAVES: David East and the beach have been constant companions over the years.<br />
involvement in surf lifesaving in<br />
New Zealand. I tick over 50 years<br />
this year.<br />
What was your favourite<br />
thing about surf lifesaving when<br />
you were younger, were you a<br />
strong swimmer?<br />
Well, I was what I would call<br />
a very average competitor. I was<br />
always a reasonably strong swimmer.<br />
But my involvement actually<br />
gradually swung to the administration<br />
side of things. I held most<br />
positions on the committee at<br />
North Beach, I ended up being<br />
the club captain and president.<br />
I have been president of the<br />
Canterbury district and have had<br />
quite a long involvement nationally<br />
with a few committees. I’ve<br />
been judging at the national<br />
championships, I think this upcoming<br />
championships will be<br />
my 31st consecutive event that I<br />
have judged nationally. I’ve been<br />
to every surf lifesaving champs<br />
since 1974, bar one. I missed the<br />
1980 one when my daughter was<br />
born.<br />
What is your favourite thing<br />
about it, do you like being on<br />
the beach?<br />
I love the beach, I love the<br />
coastline. I’ve got so many<br />
friends and associates in the<br />
movement. Even going to a<br />
national championship, it’s<br />
as much catching up with old<br />
friends as it is doing the judging.<br />
Do you have any memorable<br />
stories from your time<br />
competing?<br />
Yes, several. But most couldn’t<br />
be printed. We had a lot of fun<br />
and there have been a few hi-jinx,<br />
but all good-natured.<br />
What led you to start surf<br />
lifesaving?<br />
I was 16 and my family and<br />
friends did it. My aunts and<br />
uncles and to a degree my father,<br />
were all members of the North<br />
Beach club previously. There is<br />
quite a significant family connection,<br />
going way back. My<br />
grandfather, aunts and uncles,<br />
my sons, daughter and I, and<br />
now my grandchildren, have an<br />
association with the club.<br />
What other things like this<br />
are you involved with other<br />
than surf lifesaving?<br />
For a long period I was<br />
involved with rugby when both<br />
my sons were playing, they<br />
played for the Shirley club. I<br />
coached junior rugby for quite<br />
a number of years, I was the<br />
junior club captain there and<br />
ended up being the chairman of<br />
the board at Shirley rugby and<br />
eventually president of the club. I<br />
still maintain a very keen interest<br />
in rugby for the club, provincial<br />
and national levels. I went to the<br />
Canterbury v Manawatu game<br />
just recently.<br />
What led you into local<br />
government?<br />
I think it’s ultimately<br />
something that my family<br />
have been involved with. My<br />
parents, Colin and June, were<br />
very community-minded. My<br />
father was on a number of<br />
boards around the country in<br />
a horticultural context. He was<br />
deeply involved in rotary, the<br />
local Federated Farmers and all<br />
sorts of things there. I am very<br />
grateful for the way I was raised<br />
by my parents. The sense of<br />
community involvement<br />
that was instilled in me and<br />
giving back was something<br />
that I have always carried on<br />
with and am eternally grateful<br />
to them for. Unfortunately,<br />
neither of them are here, but I<br />
am sure they would be totally<br />
supportive and proud of where I<br />
have got to.<br />
So was the reason you<br />
wanted to get involved in local<br />
politics because of the family<br />
connection?<br />
Yes, that and I ended up on<br />
the board of trustees at my<br />
children’s school and eventually<br />
became the chair of that. I<br />
have naturally taken interest<br />
in my community and what is<br />
happening in the area and have<br />
wanted to offer any help I can<br />
to see the local community<br />
flourish.<br />

study in 2019?<br />

Tuesday <strong>September</strong> <strong>18</strong> 20<strong>18</strong> 7<br />
Local<br />
News<br />
Now<br />
Fire rages, homes at risk<br />
lifelong passion for the east<br />
Is that what you believe is the<br />
best thing about local politics?<br />
Yes, I do get a lot of personal<br />
sort of satisfaction of seeing<br />
improvements in my local area. I<br />
have always sort of believed that<br />
if you have a vibrant community<br />
with a lot of facilities, it looks<br />
good, it feels good, people will be<br />
responsive in the way they look<br />
after the community and are<br />
proud of where they live. That’s<br />
the sort of philosophy I have tried<br />
to work with.<br />
Do you think there is a<br />
different sense of community in<br />
the Coastal Ward?<br />
Yes, I have never come across a<br />
community that is so connected<br />
and interested in what happens<br />
around them. The number<br />
of residents’ associations and<br />
community groups in my ward<br />
is phenomenal. Compared<br />
to some other parts of the<br />
city, we would have far more<br />
of these community groups.<br />
You only have to look at the<br />
reaction to some proposals for<br />
the eastern suburbs and the<br />
number of people who have<br />
signed petitions, submissions<br />
and things to council. In fact,<br />
I’d go as far to say in 2015, the<br />
volume of submissions received<br />
from this side of town was quite<br />
instrumental in council, in<br />
changing their mind on aspects<br />
of the Annual Plan that year.<br />
What are some less desirable<br />
aspects of local politics?<br />
I’d say the worst thing is the<br />
time and processes you have to<br />
go through. Council never moves<br />
very fast and while we can all see<br />
the benefits of a particular project,<br />
actually getting there is quite<br />
complex and time-consuming.<br />
People that have got into local<br />
affairs have been burnt-out<br />
because they haven’t been able<br />
to work their way through some<br />
of these processes. I have learnt<br />
my way around council a bit and<br />
have been able to promote things<br />
POWER BROKERS: David East speaking to fellow city councillors Anne Galloway and Jamie<br />
Gough at last week’s council meeting.<br />
and get things on a priority list.<br />
Whereas some people may get<br />
elected to a community board<br />
or council and think they are<br />
going to come in with a big stick<br />
and their ideas and notions will<br />
be acted fairly quickly, when in<br />
fact that is not the case. There is a<br />
process, the process is not great,<br />
but it is what it is and you just<br />
have to work your way through<br />
the system with some of these<br />
projects. As you are well aware<br />
sometimes you have to step out<br />
of the square, like I am doing at<br />
the moment, to progress things<br />
that are of immense concern to<br />
the community and are not being<br />
acted on quickly or fairly.<br />
What are some of the most<br />
challenging things you have<br />
faced in this role?<br />
I have always held the notion<br />
that New Brighton and the<br />
eastern suburbs have been an<br />
under-funded, under-appreciated<br />
asset for the city. It’s taken a long<br />
time to get some projects off the<br />
ground. I am eternally grateful<br />
that we now have a great playground<br />
in New Brighton and<br />
QE II has been rebuilt. Although<br />
we have ongoing work there,<br />
looking at whether the great<br />
facility is going to be big enough<br />
for the needs of this side of<br />
town. We are working very well<br />
through the consenting process<br />
for the hot pools which is a project<br />
first mooted way back in the<br />
<strong>18</strong>80s.<br />
You have not strayed away<br />
from things that may be<br />
controversial like the debate<br />
last year about donating<br />
director’s fees to charity, did you<br />
face much fall-out from that?<br />
I was pretty principle on<br />
that matter. In fact, I followed<br />
council’s directive to the letter<br />
of the law, the ruling was that<br />
anyone who had directorships<br />
that involved Christchurch City<br />
Holdings Ltd, the fees would be<br />
directed to the Mayor’s Welfare<br />
Fund. I was a director of Canterbury<br />
Development Corporation<br />
and my fees went to that fund.<br />
But, at the same time, I was a director<br />
of Transwaste Canterbury<br />
who was not a member CCHL.<br />
I felt I was quite entitled. While<br />
other councillors would argue<br />
no, but in an interpretation of<br />
council’s ruling of the matter, I<br />
kept the fees and I would be quite<br />
happy to publicly say that if you<br />
do that sort of work you should<br />
be remunerated for it. There<br />
are huge responsibilities being<br />
a director and I think that the<br />
position council takes is wrong, I<br />
would take the same stand again.<br />
In the long term, I would hope<br />
that the attitudes to this practice<br />
are better reflected in the future.<br />
Can you tell me something<br />
about the life of a city councillor<br />
that people might not know?<br />
It is quite a demanding sort of<br />
lifestyle and it can be easy as you<br />
want and as complex as you want.<br />
I choose to attend quite a number<br />
of local community events, local<br />
committees and things so<br />
that I hope I am up to the play<br />
with what is happening in my<br />
community. I don’t necessarily<br />
have to do that, I could be just<br />
attending council meetings and<br />
community board meetings and<br />
not a lot more. From a relationship<br />
sort of view I am out at night<br />
sometimes three to five nights<br />
a week, so that has an impact. I<br />
have to say, I exceedingly grateful<br />
that my partner Lynn is very supportive<br />
of what I do, even though<br />
at times it’s not the greatest thing<br />
in a normal relationship.<br />
Is Lynn involved in local<br />
government?<br />
She is involved in a number of<br />
community and social enterprise<br />
activities. She is very supportive<br />
and takes an interest in a number<br />
of community groups.<br />
Can you tell me about your<br />
children?<br />
I have a daughter and two sons.<br />
Well, I had four children. My second<br />
daughter died at eight weeks,<br />
a long time ago. My daughter is<br />
Sarah and sons Jamie and Bid.<br />
Do they want to get into local<br />
politics?<br />
No, not at this stage. They may<br />
do, certainly I am not encouraging<br />
them too, it’s something<br />
they need to assess and get into<br />
themselves, rather than me<br />
leading them towards it. My son<br />
Jamie was club captain at the<br />
surf club for a long time and in<br />
recent months, he has become<br />
the president.<br />

Silver Ferns<br />
assistant<br />
coach’s east<br />
side roots<br />
•From page 1<br />
She retired from international<br />
play following the 1996 world<br />
championships, but played<br />
provincially until 2002 before<br />
coaching became her focus.<br />
Fuller started coaching in<br />
Wellington and Bay of Plenty. Her<br />
first notable job was as defensive<br />
coach of the Northern Mystics<br />
during the ANZ Championship in<br />
2009 under head coach Te Aroha<br />
Keenan.<br />
She was promoted to assistant<br />
the next year before cementing<br />
the head coaching job in 2011.<br />
The Mystics finished second<br />
during her first season in charge,<br />
and third in 2012. Fuller took<br />
2013 off due to family commitments,<br />
before returning to the<br />
helm and continuing until 2016.<br />
Fuller said it was emotional<br />
when she was welcomed into the<br />
Silver Ferns group. “The players<br />
did a Mihi Whakatau to welcome<br />
the new coaching staff and I still<br />
get emotional thinking about it.<br />
“I never thought when I started<br />
coaching it would lead to this but<br />
I love seeing players grow and<br />
I know this group of players is<br />
eager to do well,” she said.<br />
•From page 1<br />
“We need to know what the<br />
bus routes are before we make<br />
a decision on what the public<br />
transport<br />
services should<br />
be and we<br />
can’t do that<br />
until a regional<br />
transport plan<br />
is finished,”<br />

city councillor<br />
Yani<br />
Johanson<br />
Yani Johanson<br />
said.<br />
But he said he<br />
was supportive<br />
of an integrated plan.<br />
Cr Johanson said it would be<br />
“bizarre” for the city council<br />
to invest in public transport<br />
infrastructure when ECan will<br />
discontinue bus routes 145 and<br />
535 travelling to Eastgate next<br />
month. Instead a shopper service,<br />
the 155, will be introduced<br />
in the south-east of the city,<br />
running between Lyttelton and<br />
Eastgate via Ferrymead.<br />
The bus stops in front of<br />
Eastgate cater up to 30 buses<br />
per hour and board up to 1500<br />
passengers per day.<br />
The usage of buses in the area<br />
rivals Northlands Shopping Centre<br />
and is only outdone by the<br />
central city Bus Interchange and<br />
Westfield Riccarton hub.<br />
On average 84 buses use the<br />
bus interchange per hour, 67 at<br />
Westfield Riccarton and 45 at<br />
Northlands Shopping Centre.<br />
The average week day boarding<br />
of passengers at the Bus<br />
Interchange is 7130, Westfield<br />
Riccarton 3060 and Northlands<br />
is <strong>18</strong>20.<br />
A city council staff report said<br />
it is widely acknowledged that<br />
passenger facilities at Eastgate<br />
are inadequate and in need of<br />
improvement.<br />
But the city council’s Long<br />
Term Plan has no provision for a<br />
transport hub or any other projects<br />
suggested in the study.<br />
City council staff believe<br />
funding from the Aldwins Rd,<br />
Buckleys Rd and Linwood Ave<br />
intersection safety project could<br />
be used for the upgrade of the<br />
Buckleys Rd bus stop.<br />

A space for well-being and creativity<br />
Fire rages, homes at risk<br />
Renew Brighton<br />
co-ordinator Sue<br />
Davidson and<br />
manager Sylvia<br />
Smyth write<br />
about the health,<br />

Sue Davidson<br />
TE KURA Tawhito<br />
on the former<br />
central New<br />
Brighton School site<br />
is growing into an Sylvia Smyth<br />
amazing community hub.<br />
Renew Brighton was offered<br />
the site after it closed as a school<br />
and while it goes through the<br />
public works disposal process.<br />
We felt our community needed<br />
an opportunity to re-imagine the<br />
site and to turn it from a place of<br />
loss to a place of hope.<br />
Fast forward to a year since<br />
opening and Te Kura Tawhito<br />
has become a bustling health,<br />
well-being and creativity hub.<br />
The site now sees over 700<br />
visitors per month.<br />
We have more than 20 groups<br />
and artists occupying the space<br />
– from classes on how to sew<br />
sandwich bags, to supporting<br />
TOP WORK: Te Kura Tawhito client service co-ordinator Sieni Afamiliona, Pregnancy Help<br />
Canterbury manager Dahlia Xander and mother Rachel Warwick with her baby.<br />
new mothers, growing vegetables<br />
for the community fridge, and<br />
weaving harakeke – the site is<br />
abuzz with people and energy.<br />
It’s all about people!<br />
We receive weekly inquiries<br />
from community organisations,<br />
artist and many others alike, all<br />
wanting to occupy a space.<br />
In the last month we have<br />
opened the art room, a space set<br />
up specifically for people to be<br />
able to drop in and offer their<br />
classes.<br />
Get in touch with co-ordinator<br />
Sue Davidson, if you are keen.<br />
We at Renew Brighton are<br />
ready to expand what we can<br />
offer at Te Kura Tawhito.<br />
However, we’re waiting to hear<br />
if the plans are to sell the site on<br />
the open market, or whether we<br />
can remain.<br />
There is so much evidence on<br />
how creativity positively impacts<br />
our health and well-being and<br />
we hope to be able to continue to<br />
offer this for our community.<br />
In an ideal world, we hope<br />
to soon be sitting around a<br />
large table talking to likely<br />
stakeholders about the future of<br />
the old Central New Brighton<br />
School site – Te Kura Tawhito.<br />

Anxiety and breathing<br />
– are they related?<br />
When good breathing goes bad<br />
Have you experienced any of these<br />
breathing difficulty symptoms?<br />
• Disturbed sleep<br />
• Erratic heartbeats*<br />
• Feeling anxious and uptight<br />
• Upset gut/nausea<br />
• Chest pains*<br />
• Shattered confidence<br />
• Tired all the time<br />
• Achy muscles and joints<br />
• Dizzy spells* or feeling spaced out<br />
• Irritability or hypervigilance<br />
• Frequent yawning and sighing<br />
• Breathing discomfort*<br />
• Pins and needles<br />
• Feelings of ‘air hunger’<br />
*Check with your doctor if you experience<br />
these symptoms.<br />
These questions are asked on<br />
the website www.BradCliff.com.<br />
BradCliff was started by North Island<br />
physiotherapists Dinah Bradley and<br />
Tania Cliffton Smith, who specialise in<br />
hyperventilation and anxiety treatment.<br />
Their website notes one in 10 people<br />
experience some form of breathing pattern<br />
disorder or chronic over breathing at some<br />
time in their lives, resulting in a range<br />
of disturbing or frightening symptoms<br />
puzzling to you and your doctor.<br />
You feel unwell because of overbreathing,<br />
and overbreathing makes you feel unwell.<br />
A vicious cycle is established, which is a<br />
major stress all by itself. This is experienced<br />
currently by many Cantabrians, says Ietje<br />
van Stolk of Physical Sense Gym & Physio.<br />
As she explains, it is normal to breathe fast<br />
and in the upper chest when we are in danger<br />
and fight or flight is needed. We know all<br />
about that here, due to the earthquakes.<br />
Normally, once the danger is gone, our<br />
breathing should restore itself within a<br />
couple of days. We would then be using the<br />
diaphragm for our normal nonstressed<br />
breathing. We have been having a hard<br />
time restoring our breathing pattern<br />
here in Canterbury because every time<br />
our body tried to achieve that, the next<br />
aftershock came rolling in. Even though the<br />
aftershocks have significantly diminished,<br />
some people’s fight or flight mode<br />
breathing has become chronic, or habitual,<br />
Ietje says. And, as she points out, using the<br />
wrong muscles for breathing means these<br />
overworked muscles cause headaches, neck<br />
pain and jaw pain.<br />
With fast upper chest breathing, sighing<br />
and yawning, the resulting disturbance<br />
of our oxygen and carbon dioxide levels<br />
can give us the feeling we are not able to<br />
control our own body. One moment you<br />
are feeling fine, next moment your chest<br />
feels tight, you feel out of breath, your<br />
heart beats erratically and you may even<br />
experience dizziness and/or tingling.<br />
Very scary if you do not understand what<br />
is happening. No wonder this causes<br />
anxiety. Not being the boss over our own<br />
body makes us anxious, anxiety feeds the<br />
faulty breathing pattern, and so it goes on.<br />
The BradCliff physiotherapists have<br />
established a national network of<br />
practitioners that regularly train together<br />
and can help you overcome this problem.<br />
Physical Sense is part of that network.<br />
Physical Sense Gym and Physio is located at 300 Colombo Street, Sydenham. The Blue Line Bus stops in front of the door and there is ample<br />
parking. To enquire about specialised exercise classes or physiotherapy treatment, phone 377-2577 or visit www.triggerpoints.co.nz<br />

Linwood<br />
College<br />
PERSONALISED<br />
PATHWAYS<br />
TO SUCCESS<br />
A NEW SCHOOL IS COMING<br />
We are making it yours<br />
Linwood College is undergoing some major changes. During this time a number of things will be happening as part of this transition into our new school buildings so we want to let<br />
you know about our plans and processes.<br />
• While our school is being rebuilt, Linwood College will temporarily relocate to the existing Avonside Girls' High School site.<br />
• We are organising a farewell celebration for current and ex students of Linwood College to farewell the current buildings.<br />
• Staff are focusing on teaching and learning that allows for students to collaborate, supports engagement and meets the individual needs of our current and future students -<br />
personalised learning.<br />
REBUILD INFORMATION<br />
What’s been happening so far?<br />
Workshops around the physical buildings have been occurring. These have included<br />
staff from each learning area, Architectus - our architects, Mana Whenua and the<br />
Linwood College rebuild team. Your community consultation feedback has fed into the<br />
design of the physical teaching spaces and how the buildings will be positioned on<br />
the physical site. Within our design we have ensured that the teaching spaces are for<br />
30 students maximum with the ability to open up to a teaching space for 60 students<br />
if and when appropriate. We also have smaller spaces for students to work. We want<br />
to be able to encourage collaboration but ensure students are not lost in big open<br />
spaces. High level design meetings occur fortnightly. These meetings look at logistics:<br />
finances, structural and engineering considerations, geotechnical considerations, gas,<br />
water, heating, cooling, ventilation and lighting. The Project Steering Group meets on a<br />
monthly basis. This is when the Ministry of Education and the Linwood College Board<br />
meet, making sure that what is being planned for is actually what the school and the<br />
community are wanting.<br />
Where we are now...<br />
We now have a final site plan completed, and the final outside cladding of the new<br />
buildings has been decided. We are coming to the end of the design phase of the<br />
internal structures, and the individual classroom teaching spaces within the Learning<br />
Hubs and the Innovation and Creativity buildings. A transition manager has been<br />
appointed to oversee the shift to the Avonside Girls’ current site.<br />
Where to next?<br />
We are now looking at developing the landscaping designs that will surround the<br />
buildings. We will be starting to look at internal fixtures and fittings, including flooring,<br />
furniture and fabric finishes within the learning spaces. IT consultation is occurring to<br />
plan the wireless connectivity within the buildings. There is planning about the closure<br />
of the current Linwood College buildings including the Whare and the number of<br />
significant memorials on site.<br />
SAYING GOODBYE TO THE OLD LINWOOD COLLEGE BUILDINGS<br />
As part of preparing for the demolition and complete rebuild of Linwood College, we are<br />
organising a farewell celebration weekend. This will be over the weekend of April 5 & 6<br />
2019. There will be a formal ticketed event on the Friday evening for past students and<br />
teachers followed on the Saturday with a day of farewell open to all current and past<br />
students and staff, and the wider community who would like to join us. This will also<br />
include the closing of the Whare and acknowledging the other significant memorials<br />
around Linwood College. We are remembering and celebrating the rich history that has<br />
occurred in these buildings over the years.<br />
Linda Rutland is chairing the organising committee for this event and is now<br />
taking pre-registrations for the ticketed evening on registration@linwoodcollege.<br />
school.nz. Queries to Linda 021 2398946 or Ken Bye 027 748 0697.<br />
TEACHING AND LEARNING<br />
At Linwood College we are committed to providing personalised pathways for students<br />
to succeed. We are working on developing teaching and learning practices that develop<br />
collaboration between both teachers and students. For us, this doesn’t mean having<br />
everybody in an open space trying to work, but rather more structured environments<br />
where both students and teachers can be successful. For example, at the moment our<br />
year 10 and year 12 Physical Education classes work in partnership with the teachers<br />
planning together.<br />
AVONSIDE GIRLS’ HIGH SITE TRANSITION<br />
WHY DO WE NEED TO RELOCATE?<br />
By relocating for the period of the rebuild, the rebuild will occur faster as the<br />
construction team will not have to work around us. Our students will not have to<br />
do their learning in a building site. Because the timeframe will be shorter, Linwood<br />
College can use the money saved to reinvest into the new school buildings.<br />
WHEN WILL IT HAppEN?<br />
Linwood College will be relocating to the old Avonside Girls’ High School site once<br />
AGHS have moved to their new school on the QE2 site. This will be occurring<br />
sometime in term 2 2019. A transition manager has been allocated by the Ministry<br />
of Education to facilitate this shift, and to ensure that this does not disrupt the day<br />
to day running of the school over this period.<br />
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR THE STUDENTS?<br />
It means that our Linwood College staff and students won't have to continue<br />
learning in a construction site. It means that once we have relocated, there will be<br />
little to no disruption until we shift back. Our students will still be able to participate<br />
in sport, major productions and all the other opportunities that Linwood College<br />
currently offers.<br />
CAN I ENROL MY CHILD AT LINWOOD COLLEGE DURING THIS TIME?<br />
Yes you most certainly can. Just contact our Linwood College office on<br />
(03) 9802100 or email office@linwoodcollege.school.nz for enrolment forms and to<br />
arrange an enrolment interview. We will continue to warmly welcome new students<br />
during this transition time.<br />
HOW WILL I GET THERE?<br />
AGHS is only 2.2 kms away from the original Linwood College site. The Ministry<br />
of Education will supply buses from the original Aldwins Road Linwood site to the<br />
Avonside site for the duration of the rebuild. This will be a free service, and will<br />
leave LC to get to Avonside by the start of school, and will leave Avonside at the<br />
end of the day to return to Linwood.<br />

The tree of LIFE<br />
New research on Gingko<br />
Biloba excites researchers!<br />
For decades scientists believed brain<br />
damage with age, after a stroke or injury<br />
was irreversible and brain neurons could<br />
not be repaired. In more recent times,<br />
new research has shown that neurons<br />
can grow back with the right conditions<br />
and that a special extract of Gingko<br />
Biloba (EGb-761 or TEBONIN) has<br />
been clinically found to assist in this.<br />
The implications for stroke recovery are<br />
obvious, but researchers also know many<br />
of us suffer from undetected “microstrokes”<br />
that over a period of time slowly<br />
reduce our cognitive function. TEBONIN<br />
is prescribed worldwide as a natural<br />
supportive agent for a healthy brain and<br />
cognitive function. It supports healthy<br />
mental performance, concentration, focus,<br />
alertness, motor function and to help<br />
with many conditions including tinnitus<br />
(ringing and noise in the ears), vertigo<br />
and normal balance. TEBONIN improves<br />
micro-circulation and helps the blood<br />
flow reach those critical places it needs to<br />
get. It is a potent anti-oxidant and makes<br />
the red blood cells more pliable and<br />
capillary walls more flexible.<br />
TEBONIN is one of the most widely<br />
studied and researched herbal products in<br />
the world and is the only Ginkgo biloba<br />
extract manufactured via a patented<br />
multi-step extraction process. Each small<br />
tablet contains a highly concentrated<br />
50:1 extract to give you a therapeutic<br />
clinical dose without having to take a large<br />
amount of the herb. Of 25 Gingko biloba<br />
products on the market, and tested by a<br />
major medical journal, only TEBONIN<br />
passed all five of the test requirements.<br />
Ten brands didn’t meet any requirements<br />
and the rest didn’t pass more than three<br />
out of five requirements. TEBONIN is<br />
the only Gingko biloba extract shown<br />
to activated all areas of the brain and is<br />
considered the gold standard in Gingko.<br />
TEBONIN has been trusted by millions<br />
of consumers worldwide for over 30<br />
years with more than 8,000,000 tablets<br />
consumed each day.<br />
