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

“A local team for local people”
“Mum still lives in South New
Brighton and we love visiting her
and having a look around.”
Fuller went to North New
Brighton School where she first
started playing netball.
When she went to Aranui
High School she played for the
New Brighton club.
We were never the glamorous
club but always competed well
against the top clubs like Hearts
and St Nicks.”
In the late 1980s, she transferred
to Hearts and was noticed
for representative teams.
Fuller, a defender, cracked the
Canterbury team and made her
debut for New Zealand against
Jamaica in 1994. She played eight
tests between 1994 and 1996.

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

HAT’S OFF to Keri and Dave Glassenbury
for their great initiative in Halswell (see
page 8).
They have set up the Sharing Shack and
as the name says it’s all about sharing.
The shack is a food shelf, where people can donate food and
for those who need it, they can take it.
“The whole idea is, if there is anybody out there struggling
in any way, you don’t have to put a thing in there, just take the
food,” Keri told reporter Anan Zaki.
Keri has been a community helper in Halswell for a couple of
years and the latest project looks like a winner.
The shack is outside the community hub. So if you have food
to donate to others in need that’s the place to go.
And if you’re struggling to feed the kids, drop by. Just leave
some for others in the same boat.

Patrol volunteers needed
• By Matt Salmons
MORE COMMUNITY patrols
maybe seen driving along
Linwood Ave.
But more volunteers are
needed.
Sumner to City Community
Patrol chairman Allan Bain
said the group
managed one
patrol most
days, but he
wanted two
patrols, every
day.
“The more
Franco Lovrich
we are out
there, the less
crime will
happen,” Mr Bain said.
“We’re a deterrent.”
The group covered “a fair
chunk of area” between Linwood,
Lyttelton and Sumner
and reported incidents of tagging,
suspicious behaviour,
property damage or littering to
police.
Mr Bain said the latest city
council statistics showed the
areas covered by the patrols,
such as Linwood Ave, had some
of the “lowest levels of graffiti in
Christchurch.”
As volunteers, maintenance
on the group’s vehicles was
funded through donations and
fundraising efforts. Fuel was
provided by police.
Lyttelton Police Sergeant
Franco Lovrich said the patrols
were getting “a bit stretched”
with their numbers.
“They’re out there, reporting,
keeping the community safe by
notifying police of any suspicious
behaviours.
“They’re certainly a value
to the community,” Sergeant
Lovrich said.
Mr Bain said most of his 45
volunteers were retired and
could only commit to four hours
a month.
“We’d really need to have
some younger people and people
willing to do more hours.
“Ideally we’d really need
around 55 [people].”
While the volunteer patrol
had two vehicles, it had not yet
had them patrolling simultaneously.
“We would really like someone
to do nights for us. Saturday

nights can be almost impossible.”
Mr Bain said members
normally did not leave the
vehicle on patrol so only needed
“good eyes and the ability to
walk.”
“We’re purely moving police
signs. If you see a community
patrol car, you probably don’t
want to commit a crime right?
“You’re doing something for
the community, you’re helping
the community. That’s the
bottom line,” Mr Bain said.

Thrilling ride in Sumner rescue boat
Sumner resident Christine
Toner recently joined
the Sumner Lifeboat
Institution to help with
fundraising. She shared
the experience of her
maiden voyage with
Southern View
I HAD never been out on the
ocean in a small boat before.
I had sailed a tiny yacht on
the estuary, and travelled on a
big ship across the Pacific and
Atlantic to England on my 1970s
OE, but I had never been in big
swells with the top of the sea way
above my head.
Climbing on board Blue Arrow
Rescue, the 12.5m Sumner Lifeboat,
was an easy walk up some
steps inside the Lifeboat Station,
onto the deck and into the capacious,
modern cabin.
I put on the life jacket and
clambered up on to the high seat.
Once settled on my perch I was
surprised to have to do up my
seat belt and adjust a dial to my
body weight. Later on I appreciated
how the clever spring system
used that intimate knowledge to
minimise bounce.
Skipper Heather McDonald
carried out an impressive array
of pre-launch checks and crew
MAIDEN VOYAGE: Christine Toner said her maiden voyage with the Sumner Lifeboat crew was a thrilling adventure.
briefings, and eventually we were
winched backwards down the
concrete ramp into shallow water.
As soon as we were afloat, we
were surrounded by surfers. Undaunted,
Heather manoeuvred
Blue Arrow Rescue (affectionately
known as BAR as in Bee Ay Agh)
around the humans and out into
Scarborough Bay.
Beyond the white caps, the
waves were huge – to me, anyway.
No one else seemed to be
concerned as we climbed up, up
and up then suddenly lurched
over the top and smacked down
into the void beyond. I quickly
understood the value of the seat
belt and seat spring arrangement.
Someone spotted a mussel
buoy, adrift from a mussel farm
in Pigeon Bay.
Blue Arrow Rescue came
up alongside the buoy and the
trainee crew members adroitly
hauled it on board. We roared
off to take it home. Out there the
sea was choppy but much less of
a roller coaster, and we enjoyed
stunning views of a freighter at
the Lyttelton Heads, a yacht, a
tiny runabout, and the gigantic
Whitewash Head cliffs.
What a thrill it was. And
better still, not even a hint of
seasickness. Just excitement and
awe for the powerful jet engines
and strong boat body that
propelled us at 25 knots and still
had plenty left for an emergency.

Ideas sought for failed village land
• By Matt Salmons
HEATHCOTE residents are
about to have their say on what
the failed Māori Village land at
Ferrymead Park can be used for.
City council staff will seek
views from the community this
month on what to do with the
land, which was mooted last
year as an alternative site for a
Lyttelton dog park.
Options proposed for the
former Māori Village tourist
attraction at Ferrymead Park
included a dog park, bike tracks
and horse trails.
It had been suggested as the
possible location for a dog park
last year after a suitable site in
Lyttelton couldn’t be found.
City council manager community
parks Al Hardy said the
Linwood-Central-Heathcote
Community Board had asked
staff to investigate uses for the
land in December last year.
“Staff are currently conducting
a site analysis and will be
seeking ideas and community
views shortly, prior to carrying
out formal consultation for the
site,” Mr Hardy said.
He said staff would gather
ideas from the community
through pre-engagement at the
end of the month.
“Pre-engagement involves a

project flyer being sent to adjacent
neighbours, absentee owners
and key stakeholders. This
will increase awareness of the
project and inform people where
they can seek more information
or make a submission.”
Mr Hardy said information
would be available on the Have
Your Say website.
A draft landscape plan would
be prepared around November,
Mr Hardy said, with further
public consultation on the plan
early next year.
He expected the plan could go
back to the community board
for approval mid-2019.

Sparks Rd
speed likely
to be reduced
• By Julia Evans
THE SPEED limit on busy Sparks
Rd is likely to be cut from 80km/h
from 60km/h.
The city council has proposed
the drop between between
Hendersons Rd and Milns Rd.
The road connects Halswell,
Westmorland and Hoon Hay.
A city council report said the
changes are necessary as a result
of increased activity and to prepare
for future developments.
“The current 80km/h speed
limit is no longer suitable and the
city council is proposing to reduce
the speed limit to 60km/h.”
The drop would also affect part
of Hendersons Rd as it approaches
the Sparks Rd roundabout from
Halswell Rd. The new speed limit
would be in place from November.
It is part of wider changes to
the area for the Quarryman’s
Trail cycleway, including a shared
path on Sparks Rd which would
connect to developments in the
Hendersons Basin and the Eastman
Wetlands.

Possible sites for seafarers’ centre
• By Matt Salmons
COMMITMENTS to continued
funding and finding a new
location have come from a
public meeting about the future
of the Lyttelton Seafarers Centre.
More than 40 Lyttelton
residents joined representatives
from the Seafarers Centre,
Seafarers’ Welfare Board for
New Zealand, city council and
community boards for the
meeting on September 9.
Welfare Board chairman
John McLister said the meeting
highlighted aspirations the town
had for the welcome they could
provide to seafarers.
“No one in Lyttelton wants to
see seafarers standing on a street
corner. They just want a functioning
seafarers’ centre.”
Seafarers arriving in Lyttelton
used the Norwich Quay centre
to relax and contact families.
But funding and volunteer constraints
meant the centre could
only open five nights a week and
accommodate 18 people.
Its lease on the current site
would expire in 2021.
Deputy Mayor and Banks
Peninsula Community Board
member Andrew Turner said
there was also “concern about
how the issue will be exacerbated”
by the return of the cruise

ships in 2020.
“We don’t want to find them
out of a home or ill-equipped to
meet the demand from increasing
numbers of arriving seafarers,”
Cr Turner said.
The city council had no legal
responsibility towards seafarers
welfare, Cr Turner said, but it
was “a question of moral responsibility.”
“The people of Lyttelton made
it very clear that they want us
to provide a quality welcome to
all visitors to the port, and that
includes seafarers.”
He said the city council had
provided $10,000 of operational
funding to the centre this year
and he committed to having
staff investigate ways to continue
that funding into the future.
Using voluntary contributions
from shipping companies
towards the operation of the
centre would also be investigated
with the Lyttelton Port
Company, Cr Turner said.
He said there was a “process
under way” to investigate using
the former Donald St Stables
as a new site for the centre. The
former Lyttelton Museum site
was also considered.
Mr McLister said there could
be hundreds of crew arriving
daily when the cruise ships
returned.
“It’s not just a welfare issue
but making sure Lyttelton can
benefit economically from this,”
he said.

Fire rages, homes at risk
Halswell food stall for those in need
• By Anan Zaki
A COUPLE’S goal to provide
food for those in need has taken
off.
Keri and Dave Glassenbury
have set up the Sharing Shack, in
Halswell.
The shack is a food shelf, where
people can donate and take food.
It was built by computer programmer
Mr Glassenbury, and is
outside the Halswell Community
Hub, at the former Halswell Library
on Halswell Rd.
They set up the shack in
Halswell because Mrs Glassenbury
is a manager at the Halswell
Community Project, which
works to connect and support
people in the suburb.
In its first week of operation,
the Sharing Shack has been
frequently used and is regularly
filled up and then emptied.
“People are more often donating
more than they take away,”
Mrs Glassenbury said.
“The whole idea is, if there is
anybody out there struggling in
any way, you don’t have to put a
thing in there, just take the food,”
she said.
Mrs Glassenbury’s two-and-ahalf
years of helping the Halswell
community have made her passionate
about the area.
“It’s a great area and a number
of times we have talked about
moving to Halswell . . . I just see
FRESH FOOD: Halswell Community Project co-ordinator Kate
Cleverly (left), and Halswell Community Project manager
Keri Glassenbury stock up the Sharing Shack at Halswell
Community Hub.
the whole city as one community
as well,” she said.
The shack is mainly intended
for fruit and vegetables but
canned and instant meals have
also been common.
“If people want to, they can donate
other food, and that’s great.
There is always something that
somebody needs,” she said.
Many in the community
will want to help, Mrs
D.I.Y: Dave Glassenbury
building the Sharing Shack.
Glassenbury believed.
“We dropped it off at 3pm
on Sunday [September 9] , and
posted on Facebook. Straight
away people were like: ‘Oh where
is it, I want to drop things off’,”
she said.
Giving back to the community
is something Mrs Glassenbury
has always wanted to do and is
now encouraging her husband to
join in more.
“I’ve always enjoyed working
with people, I’m a people person.
Working in the community hub
. . . it’s an awesome way to meet
people from all walks of life.”
For Mr Glassenbury, volunteering
in the community is a new
experience.
“It was Keri’s idea and they [the
community project] wanted it
done, and I quite like that sort of
thing [building work],” he said.
His first experience was a rewarding
one. “I thought it would
be slow to take off but people
were very quick to get into it,” Mr
Glassenbury said.
Now that he has had his first
taste of working for the community,
another project is around
the corner.
“I am also building a library
shelf where people can share
books,” Mr Glassenbury said.
He didn’t think there would be
demand for food sharing.
“It appears there is . . . what
I also noticed is the amount of
people that want to give stuff.
That really surprised me,” he said.
He considers himself to be a
handyman around the house,
although the project is very different
from his job as a computer
programmer.
“I’ve often do jobs around the
house or building things for the
kids,” he said.
The couple hoped their goodwill
won’t be spoiled by people
trying to take advantage of the
situation.
“If it it does [get stolen], we’ll
just build another one,” Mrs
Glassenbury said.
But it was unlikely to be stolen
Mr Glassenbury believed.
“People can surprise you
sometimes, I think it’ll be fine.”
Eastgate bus hub plan moves forward
•From page 1
“We need to know what the
bus routes are before we make
a decision on what the public
transport services should be and
we can’t do that until a regional
transport plan is finished,”
Linwood Ward city councillor
Yani Johanson said.
But he said he was supportive
of an integrated plan.
Cr Johanson said it would be
“bizarre” for the city council
to invest in public transport
infrastructure when ECan will
discontinue bus routes 145
and 535 travelling to
Eastgate next month.
Instead a shopper
service, the 155, will
be introduced in the
south-east of the city,
running between
Lyttelton and Eastgate
via Ferrymead.
The bus stops in front
of Eastgate cater up
to 30 buses per hour
and board up to 1500
passengers per day.
Yani
Johanson
The usage of buses in the
area rivals Northlands
Shopping Centre and is
only outdone by the central
city Bus Interchange and
Westfield Riccarton hub.
On average 84 buses
use the bus interchange
per hour, 67 at Westfield
Riccarton and 45 at
Northlands Shopping
Centre.
The average week day
boarding of passengers
at the Bus Interchange is 7130,
Westfield Riccarton 3060 and
Northlands is 1820.
A city council staff report said
it is widely acknowledged that
passenger facilities at Eastgate
are inadequate and in need of
improvement.
But the city council’s Long
Term Plan has no provision for
a transport hub or any other
projects suggested in the study.
City council staff believe
funding from the Aldwins Rd,
Buckleys Rd and Linwood Ave
intersection safety project could
be used for the upgrade of the
Buckleys Rd bus stop.
The report said the remaining
fund of $1.1 million from the
intersection safety project is on
hold.
But Cr Johanson said part of
the project has been completed
with traffic signals being
installed. He said he doesn’t
agree with the money for a
safety improvement into the
intersection being taken off
budget and put into the public
transport.

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

Fun to be had at new playground
SCARBOROUGH Playground
is back in action and ready just
as the sun starts to warm the
bays.
The park had been closed
since May for the upgrade and
opened recently with a mouse
wheel, eagles’ lair climbing net,
swing set, carousel, dancing
snake rope swing, four spring
toys and a new rocking horse.
Community feedback had
saved the old rocking horse, but
new safety guidelines meant it
was relegated as a feature in the
nature play area.
City council head of parks
Andrew Rutledge said the
revamped Scarborough Park
provided a perfect space for
exploration, with plenty of play
equipment.
“Scarborough Park is now
home to an interactive play area
where youngsters can climb and
slide all day.
“We have aimed to create a
seaside haven for children, and
their families. The refurbished
and upgraded space will appeal
to everyone, providing plenty of
areas for imaginative play.”
The new design followed extensive
community consultation
with both adults and children.
Meanwhile, repairs are
under way on Scarborough’s
earthquake-damaged seawall
steps, they are expected to be
back in operation in two to
three months.
Repair work on the nearby
clock tower is expected to be
completed before Christmas.

Fire rages, homes at risk
Film prompts
interest in
food forests
• By Matt Salmons
ORGANISERS OF a food
sustainability film screening in
Sumner last week say attendance
shows interest in community
gardens and food forests is growing.
Sumner Bays Union Trust
sustainability co-ordinator Robin
Arnold said there was “kind of a
revolution” in attitudes towards
food sustainability.
“It’s learning old knowledge and
bringing it back.
“We’re connecting our communities
with where our food comes
from.”
A diverse group of more than
100 people attended the Thursday
evening screening of Edible
Paradise at Hollywood Cinema, Ms
Arnold said.
She said the mix of older and
younger people, experienced gardeners
and novices was fairly even.
The film showcased food forests
from around New Zealand and
told the stories of their creation.
Ms Arnold said feedback from
the night suggested people were
happy to see others sharing their
interest.
She said the earthquakes of 2010
and 2011 made it obvious that food
sources were vulnerable.

Basketball champs
Our Senior A Boys Basketball went through
undefeated to claim the South Island Secondary
Schools Basketball title, hosted in Invercargill over
the national tournament week in September.
Cashmere went into the competition as favourites,
after winning and holding the Dowson (challenge)
Cup, and then convincingly winning the Thomson
Trophy (overall Canterbury Secondary School’s
Competition) for the second consecutive year.
More winter sports highlights
Netball: Our Girls’ Senior A team finished a wonderful
season strongly by winning both their Wednesday and Saturday
competitions. They also performed with distinction at the
South Island Tournament in Dunedin.
Rugby at Cashmere continues to grow from strength
to strength with three teams entered into the Saturday
competitions. Our U15 team went through to win the U15
Section 2 Division with a 31-17 win in the final against CBHS,
and our U18 team won the Division 1 plate trophy.
The team now heads to the National Premier
Tournament in Palmerston North over the term
holiday break, keen to take on the big Auckland
schools.
The depth of our school’s basketball programme
was clearly evident when our school’s Boys B
team attended the second tier boys’ basketball
South Island tournament hosted in Ashburton and
finished a very impressed second place.

Big win for Hillmorton
Young fencer
• By Jacob Page
THE HILLMORTON High
School basketball team are
looking to go one better than
their national tournament effort
last year when they head to
Palmerston North next month.
The team won the South
Island Secondary Schools A
premiership tournament for the
second year in a row in Blenheim
last Saturday.
They will look to avenge their
five point loss in the national
final against Stratford High
School in 2017 at this year’s
national tournament on October
1.
The A tournament is for
schools with under 600 students.
The team has not had an easy
road so far this year, losing their
coach and former Canterbury
Rams player Marques Whippy in
the middle of the season when he
moved away from the city.
Team manager Andrea
Kendrew said the team chose
not to find a new coach so not to
avoid a clash of playing styles.
“Marques had taught them all
they needed, they just went out
there and executed.”
Hillmorton won all five games
at the South Island tournament
and beat St Kevin’s College from
Oamaru 83-63 in the final.
Kendrew felt with six year
13 and six year 12 players, she
believed the balance was right
to go one better at the national

tournament.
She said the team had the
national title as their main
goal for this year so they would
be training hard for the next
fortnight.

wary of coach
• By Jacob Page
CASHMERE HIGH School
fencer Casper Howell will
be trying to avoid his former
coach during the national
championships at the end of this
month.
For the past two years his
previous mentor Adam Burrough
has knocked him out of the pinnacle
event on the New Zealand
fencing calendar.
“It’s annoying, funny, but
the luck of the draw,” he said.
“Ultimately I’d love to finish in
the top four at that event.”
The 16-year-old won the midsouth
under-20 sabre title three
weeks ago, as the best in his age
from the Waitaki River north.
It is just one of a number of
podium finishes for the year 12
student this year. Howell, who
competes for Addington’s Fencing
Institute, earned a bronze
medal at the national secondary
schools championships a fortnight
ago. “I’ve won a few medals
but I know that I’ll have to be
better if I want to break through
for a gold,” he said.
Howell has competed internationally
at the Australian
nationals in Sydney in July where
he finished 15th as an individual
and won bronze with the New
Zealand team.
VICTORIOUS: Cashmere High
School fencer Casper Howell
won the mid-south under-20s
fencing title.
He started competing in the
sport as a nine-year-old, two
years after seeing it for the first
time during the 2008 Beijing
Olympics.
Howell said to be good at fencing,
you needed similar attributes
to tennis.
“You have to be agile and to
think in the moment and react to
what’s in front of you.”
Howell said he would like to
compete internationally more,
try to move up the ranks as an
open grade competitor and push
for an Olympic spot after 2020.

St Thomas’ too good for St Kevin’s
SPORTS
• By Jacob Page
ST THOMAS’ of Canterbury
College dominated two football
games to win their annual sports
exchange with St Kevin’s College,
in Oamaru on Wednesday.
St Thomas’ won the exchange
6-2 to retain the trophy.
They won the junior football
12-1 and senior 8-0 and then
backed that up in the basketball,
with the senior team winning
66-53 and the junior side prevailing
57-52.
It was a chance for the school’s
football teams to farewell
departing year 13 players and
welcome in younger talent.
Departing players Treye Butler
and Fin Claude travelled to
Oamaru to watch the games.
Butler scored 111 goals in 94
appearances for the first XI while
Claude presented his shirt to year
8 player Phoenix Coursey, who
was one of seven players to debut
for the top team.
The others were Diego
Lavin, Angus Dempster, Dylan
Barbour-Ryan, Jack Robinson,
Api Rabuka and Memphis
Vaszilyko.
The St Thomas’ first XV won
their game 39-12 but St Kevin’s
took a nail-biting win in the
under-15 match 38-37.
St Thomas’ also won the junior
debate, but lost the senior debate.
BIG SHOT: St Thomas’ Hunter Adam goes for a three-pointer

Anxiety and breathing
– are they related?
When good breathing goes bad
Have you experienced any of these
breathing difficulty symptoms?
• Disturbed sleep
• Erratic heartbeats*
• Feeling anxious and uptight
• Upset gut/nausea
• Chest pains*
• Shattered confidence
• Tired all the time
• Achy muscles and joints
• Dizzy spells* or feeling spaced out
• Irritability or hypervigilance
• Frequent yawning and sighing
• Breathing discomfort*
• Pins and needles
• Feelings of ‘air hunger’
*Check with your doctor if you experience
these symptoms.
These questions are asked on
the website www.BradCliff.com.
BradCliff was started by North Island
physiotherapists Dinah Bradley and
Tania Cliffton Smith, who specialise in
hyperventilation and anxiety treatment.

As she explains, it is normal to breathe fast
and in the upper chest when we are in danger
and fight or flight is needed. We know all
about that here, due to the earthquakes.
Normally, once the danger is gone, our
breathing should restore itself within a
couple of days. We would then be using the
diaphragm for our normal nonstressed
breathing. We have been having a hard
time restoring our breathing pattern
here in Canterbury because every time
our body tried to achieve that, the next
aftershock came rolling in. Even though the
aftershocks have significantly diminished,
some people’s fight or flight mode

pain and jaw pain.
With fast upper chest breathing, sighing
and yawning, the resulting disturbance
of our oxygen and carbon dioxide levels
can give us the feeling we are not able to
control our own body. One moment you
are feeling fine, next moment your chest
feels tight, you feel out of breath, your
heart beats erratically and you may even
experience dizziness and/or tingling.
Very scary if you do not understand what
is happening. No wonder this causes
anxiety. Not being the boss over our own
body makes us anxious, anxiety feeds the
faulty breathing pattern, and so it goes on.
The BradCliff physiotherapists have
established a national network of
practitioners that regularly train together
and can help you overcome this problem.
Physical Sense is part of that network.

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

Advisers at Marshall’s Health & Natural

sanctuary from hectic modern living!

TURN IN the drive at 269 Hills Rd,

Located on the cusp of St Albans

with the intention to provide a local
club with a strong community focus.
Sixty years on and the club continues
with this objective providing support
for local schools and groups.
Club and affiliate members gain
access to the many great facilities on
offer. There's a MEMBER'S BAR with
discounted bar prices, bistro (open
from 5-8pm Thursday, Friday,
Saturday), bar menu, TAB, gaming
machines, big screen SKY sport, pool
tables; SPORTING SECTIONS that
compete locally and nationally; LIVE
ENTERTAINMENT; and to get you
home safe and sound... the Club
Shuttle (operates Thursday, Friday and
Saturday evenings).
Anyone can become a member of
the SAS Club and potential new
members are welcome to call in and
check out the great facilities and
advantages of joining your local club.
For more information, go to
www.sasclub.co.nz, visit them on
facebook, call in at 269 Hills Rd, or
phone them on 385 1632.
Live music this Saturday with the
