Campbell to be axed
over water comment
Rumblings continue on community boards
• By Julia Evans
SPEAKING OUT over
the city’s water issues will
cost Fendalton-Waimairi-
Harewood Community
Board deputy chairman
Aaron Campbell his
position.
City council chief executive
Karleen Edwards has notified
Mr Campbell that the board filed
a notice of motion to remove him
from his role as deputy chairman.
The motion will go to the board’s
next meeting on Monday.
He will remain as a member for the
rest of the term but remains undecided
if he will run again.
It comes after tension from Mr
Campbell’s call to introduce a liquor ban
in Elmwood Park, which chairman Sam
MacDonald said was not supported by the
majority of the board.
This time Mr Campbell questioned the
city council’s membership of Water New
Zealand.
He questioned it during a board area report
to city councillors.
Mr Campbell and Mr MacDonald met
with board governance manager Matt
McLintock the next day.
Mr Campbell was told it was not
the right place to raise the issue without
authority.
Mr Campbell disagreed.
The notice was signed by all board members
including the three city councillors Aaron Keown,
Raf Manji and Jamie Gough.
“I’m disgusted and disappointed,” Mr Campbell
said.
He said he feels let down by his community
board colleagues and should have had the chance
to discuss personality issues.
Mr MacDonald said he would not comment on
the matter until after the meeting.
However, Mr Campbell said the move is political
censorship, an attack on free speech and preelection
manoeuvring before local body elections
next October.
Mr MacDonald and Mr Campbell have different
political leanings – Mr MacDonald is electorate
chairman for Ilam National MP Gerry Brownlee
and Mr Campbell was campaign secretary for
Mayor Lianne Dalziel and Christchurch Central
Labour MP Duncan Webb.
Mr MacDonald (right) also
ran for the board under the
right-leaning Independent
Citizens group, while
Mr Campbell ran as an
independent.
“Central Government
aligning should not come in at
a local level,” Mr Campbell said.
But Mr MacDonald said that is not the case.
“For anyone to insinuate that this is political and
not purely for the outcomes of our community is
quite frankly offensive.”
The move to sack Mr Campbell comes on top of
other community board spats in the city.
There have been clashes over the Denton
Park decision between Halswell-Hornby-
Riccarton Community Board members, which
required intervention from an independent
facilitator. Dr Edwards and Mayor Lianne Dalziel
also attended one of the board’s meetings
to discuss the decision-making process and
relationships.
More recently there has been friction between
Papanui-Innes Community Board chairwoman
Ali Jones and member John Stringer. An
independent facilitator was also used.

IF EVER a guy deserved a helping hand
it’s Grant Cowan (see page 5).
Life has dealt him a terrible blow; two
strokes at a still relatively young age.
Now his mates have rallied to raise funds
for a special bike for this once very good sportsman.
I can vouch for Grant. My contact with him was in our
basketball team, many years ago now, but I can still see him as
an imposing figure under the basket. He was also a top bloke.
Grant was also a top martial arts exponent, went onto cycling
and as mentioned a natural basketballer.
His fundraiser is a worthy cause.
On another note, more rumblings on the city community

Fire rages, homes at risk
St Andrew’s crossing approved
• By Ashleigh Monk
A SIGNALISED pedestrian
crossing could be installed
outside St Andrew’s College.
Last week the Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood
Community
Board approved the $285,000
project, which would replace the
island crossing on Papanui Rd.
The proposal would be presented
to the city council at an
upcoming meeting.
The issue was brought to the
board after city council staff
carried out a risk assessment for
roads across the city and found
the crossing to be a high priority
for an upgrade.
St Andrew’s
College general
manager
David Evans
said the existing
crossing
had been a
safety concern
Sam
MacDonald
for “a long
time.”
“It’s a really
difficult road
to cross because of the high volume
of traffic,” he said.
“We’ve had to put supervision

school finishes to facilitate our

students crossing the road in a
safe way.” He said a signalised
crossing was a great solution.
“Rather than people trying to
dodge through traffic and trying
to find a gap, this will provide
a safe crossing. It will probably
take away a bit of angst from
motorists as well.”
Community board chairman
Sam MacDonald said having the
signalised crossing would be a
good solution for both pedestrians
and motorists.
“The beauty is that the lights
will not come on without people
pressing the button. They’re not
going to stop the traffic unless
there’s actually someone there.”
Pedestrian numbers peaked at
90 per hour at 8am on weekdays,
along with the average traffic
peak of 1657 vehicles.
Afternoon pedestrian numbers
peaked at 110 per hour at 3pm,
with the average traffic peak of
1698 vehicles.

A KEEN cyclist and triathlete
Grant Cowan enjoyed an active
life.
But the Papanui man’s world
came crashing down 18 months
ago, when he suffered two
strokes.
The former police officer and
father of two teenagers lost the
ability to speak, lost feeling in his
right arm and right leg.
Mr Cowan’s cycling hobby
came to a halt. He now resides
at St John of God care facility, in
Halswell.
Having lost touch with pedals,
Mr Cowan’s family and friends
took him to the New Zealand
Bike Expo last week.
It was there, that they saw an
expression almost unseen for a 18
months.
Said his friend of 30 years
Rodger Wyatt: “The look on his
face, he was just absolutely humming.”
“I didn’t know you could enjoy
someone else’s joy so much,” he
said.
Mr Cowan, 52, tried a recumbent
tricycle. The trike is able to
be ridden while sitting down.
“I was just wrapping my brain on
how do we get this to happen and
get some public support,” he said.
Mr Wyatt gathered two of
Mr Cowan’s closest friends and
former cycling teammates, Jan
Hales and Derrick Murray, to buy
the trike.
But the trike was $16,500.
The trio quickly hatched a plan
to raise money for Mr Cowan.
They will race in the Blue Dog
six-hour blast at McLeans Island
on Saturday, a race that the team
previously took part in with Mr
Cowan.
Mr Murray, who now lives in
Sydney, will fly across the ditch to
fundraise.
“We’ve got a spot for Grant,
he’s in the team but obviously he
can’t race,” Mr Murray.
“It seems like a very fitting way
to get word out about our mate,”
Mr Murray said.
The race at McLeans Island
brought back many memories,
Mr Wyatt said.
“We did a race together out at
McLeans Island as a mixed team
about four or five years ago.
“Grant came off his bike and
tore his leg open on his gear
leaver. It was pretty ugly.”
Mr Cowan was taken to hospital
and the team finished second
place.
“We still bag Grant now about
letting the team down,” Mr
Wyatt said.

Friends rally to get stroke victim back cycling
ALL SMILES: Grant Cowan tries a tricycle with Trikes NZ owner Brian Gilbert. Mr Cowan’s friend
of 30 years Rodger Wyatt (inset), is helping raise money for the trike.
Fire rages, homes at risk
He said Mr Cowan is aware
that his friends are trying to help
him.
“He knows he wants a bike,
he knows it’s going to give him
something to look forward to.
“I think he’s had a reasonably
dark 18 months and the look
on is face [on Monday] was just
extraordinary,” Mr Wyatt said.
Mr Murray just wants to see his
best friend mobile again.
“My thing is, he’s my best mate,
we’ve done so many crazy adventures
all over the South Island,”
he said.
“He doesn’t deserve to be in
a rehab facility, we just thought
we’ve got to find a way at to at
least come on a small ride with
us,” Mr Murray said.
He also wants to raise awareness
for signs of stroke among
40-50 year-olds.
The Stroke Foundation of New
Zealand recommends to learn
three observations to look for in
identifying stroke victims.

Hooked on fishing

Veterinary practice
THE DANGER OF
FEEDING BONES
Belfast’s Braden Anderson, 7, and Izack Paku, 7, joined about 5000
other children and parents at The Groynes lakes for the annual
Take a Kid Fishing event
With the popularity of feeding raw food
diets now, we are seeing on the rise
intestinal damage and blockages due to
dogs eating the wrong sort of bones on a
regular basis. Over the past six months we
are doing exploratory surgeries to remove
bones that have got lodged somewhere in
the gastrointestinal tract almost on a weekly
basis– often we see these patients late Friday
afternoon so they end up being operated on
that night and transferred to the afterhours.
All this costs a lot of money and is stressful
for the owner. I’m not saying all bones are
bad but I think owners have to be aware of
the pitfalls, research carefully the safer bone
options like raw meaty bones and supervise
carefully when there pooch is having a good
old chew.
In some adult dogs with no medical issues,
feeding balanced and complete raw diets
may be okay but we at McMaster & Heap
will never be advocates of feeding most
bones on a regular basis and certainly not to
puppies. Very occasionally feeding a large
RAW meaty cannon bone is great for teeth
cleaning and general enjoyment. I limit Lola
my Labrador to a raw cannon bone twice
a month and it’s binned after one hour of
chewing. Once I forgot to take the bone
away and after three hours she was still
knawing away and the pulp in her upper
canine had bled into the tooth. Luckily it
healed quickly and she didn’t need the tooth
extracting.
The nutritional value of bones is poor and
their complication rate high. Dental disease
is common and we will often see fractured
canines and dying teeth from the pulp of
the tooth getting permanently damaged
from continual chewing on a hard object
for too long. Again supervision is needed.
Gastrointestinal disease, presenting with
vomiting, regurgitation, diarrhoea and
inappetance is commonplace (especially
with the feeding of cooked bones ) as is the
dreaded and expensive to treat “pancreatitis”
patient. Baked or barbequed bones become
hard and brittle causing splintering and
subsequent piercing of the softer tissues.
And then we have the blockages, where
bone is “stuck” and can’t be pushed
along with peristalsis, requiring surgical
intervention – not a cheap option but a
necessary one if we are to save the patients’
life.
Now we come to my beloved “Henry” who
regularly loves to visit me and have some
sort of operation fairly regularly. We have a
close relationship now. In January he was
This is Henry NOT
allowed on the furniture
very sick with pancreatitis and hospitalised
for days, then in August on a Sunday we
surgically removed a foreign body from his
small intestine and very recently he got a
large knuckle bone completely stuck in his
oesophagus requiring emergency surgery.
He usually bounces back quickly from
surgery but this last visit he’s had a few quite
serious complications from eating bones.
The large knuckle was removed through his
pharygnx carefully with the use of forceps.
Due to the oesophageal damage he’s had
difficulty eating and regurgitation issues.
He also had exploratory surgery to remove
many sharp shards of bone from his stomach
that were not able to pass through Henrys
intestine. As a result of the regurgitation due
to the surgery and eating of bones, he now
has aspiration pneumonia which is holding
his usually super recovery back. Henry
has spiking fevers daily, feels listless and is
off his food – a rare event for a Labrador!!
He is currently taking nine medications,
four of which are antibiotics. He’s been a
daily inpatient getting intravenous fluids
to support him as he hasn’t wanted to
drink much. His owners are performing
coupage several times a day to help clear
secretions from the lungs. This is a bit like
physiotherapy on the lungs to dislodge
mucous and fluid pooling in the lungs so
Henry can breathe easier. He coughs up the
secretions in his airways and swallows them.
Suffice to say the latest update from Henry
is great news. He’s back home, eating
much better, off intravenous fluids but still
on a variety of medications. Pneumonia
will probably take three to four weeks
of antibiotic therapy to clear his lungs
completely. Henry was very lucky as his
owners will do anything for him and acted
quickly getting him to us. He’s certainly
worthy though of the love he has from us
all. As you can see from his photo, he’s one
“cool dude”.

Rangi celebrates 25 years
with Japanese sister
RANGI RURU Girls’ School
is celebrating a 25-year
relationship with Japanese sister
school Yokohama Jogakuin
High School.
Rangi Ruru head of community
and global connections
Tania Morgan says looking back
over the last quarter of a century
really highlighted the strength
of the relationship between the
two schools.
“Yokohama Jogakuin’s principal
Mr Hirama approached Rangi
Ruru 25 years ago after looking
around the country for a school he
felt would be best to partner with
and that’s when he knocked at the
door of the then principal, Gillian
Heald,” she said.
A group from Jogakuin, including
Mr Hirama, began their
visit to Rangi with a powhiri in
the school chapel on Wednesday,
and followed that with Maori
lessons that afternoon where
they learned waiata and Kēmu
Rākau (a stick game).
“Mr Hirama often talks about
how important people are in
this relationship we have. He
tangata, he tangata, he tangata
(the people, the people, the
people). That was never more
clearly illustrated as after the
SISTER SCHOOL: Rangi Ruru Girls’ School teacher Gillian

Julie Moor with Yokohama Jogakuin High School principal Mr

2011 earthquake when he came
to Christchurch and brought a
group of his students with him
to show support for Rangi and
Christchurch. There wouldn’t
be one girl at Rangi who does
not know Jogakuin is our sister
school and how important the
relationship is to both of us,” Ms
Morgan said.
During the week, the Yokohama
Jogakuin group took time to
check in on the Japanese garden
which was specially dedicated in
2016. Yokohama Jogakuin also
has a garden on their grounds
which grew the yellow Rangi
Ruru rose.
Rangi Ruru principal Dr Sandra
Hastie officially opened the
garden in 2016, said the 25-year
mark was in fact a starting point
for the next 25 years.
“Over the last two and a half
decades, we have developed a
deep relationship with Yokohama
Jogakuin,” she said.
“It’s a relationship between
student and student, staff
member to staff member and
principal to principal. When
we grow with our partners and
learn from them, we become
stronger.
School zone in final
stage of planning
• By Ashleigh Monk
ISLEWORTH School in
Bishopdale is in the final stages of
forming an enrolment zone.
The school has been working
with the Ministry of Education to
set boundaries for a new zone to
manage the school’s growing roll.
Several primary schools in the
north-west area already have
zones, including Bishopdale
School, Burnside Primary
School, Redwood School,
Harewood School, St Albans
School and Papanui School.
Principal Jeanette Shearer
said the zone was proposed
about three years ago after the
school built two new classrooms
due to roll growth.
“The Ministry of Education
don’t want to build new classrooms
at one school for children
who could be going to another
school which they’re in zone for
and has space for them.”
The zone included Harewood
Rd from Greers Rd to Breens
Rd, both sides of Breens Rd, a
selection of streets off Breens
Rd, Wairakei Rd from Grahams
Rd to Breens Rd, Grahams Rd
from Greers Rd to Wairakei Rd,
Greers Rd from Grahams Rd to
Harewood Rd, the south side of
Wairakei Rd from Charlcott St
to Grahams Rd and both sides of
Gregan Cres.
Ms Shearer said the zone was
restricted to the Isleworth School
side of the main arterial routes
to ensure pupils could travel to
school safely.
“It was a logical way
to put a zone in. We
don’t want children
to have to cross those
main roads to get here.”
Ministry of Education
deputy secretary
Katrina
Casey sector enablement and
support Katrina Casey
said the scheme ensured children
in the area would be prioritised
for enrolment.
“The establishment of a scheme
will help the school manage its
roll and ensure that space is available
for local students to enrol,”
she said.
Isleworth School and the
Ministry of Education planned to
hold a public consultation before

ECan puts brakes on plan
to extend Shirley route
• By Ashleigh Monk
A PROPOSED extension to the
No 44 Shirley bus service will
not go ahead.
At a meeting with
representatives from affected
parties on Thursday afternoon,
Environment Canterbury
senior manager public
transport Stewart Gibbon said
the consultation process had
shown the community strongly
opposed the extension of the No
44 route.
“We received 140 submissions,
of which 108, or 77 per cent,
opposed the change,” he said.
The proposed extension came
about due to an upcoming
change to the Orbiter route
because of roading changes as
part of the Northern Corridor
project.
The change to the Orbiter
will affect some people living
adjacent to Philpotts Rd, such
as Diana Isaac Retirement
Village staff and residents who
brought their concerns to ECan
in March.
“We took the concerns of the
retirement village on board and
worked with them to develop
a potential solution that meant
they would retain access to the
network, while remaining a
viable option for ECan,” he said.
“We proposed an extension
to the 44, which would provide
a stop on Philpotts Rd within
150m of the village, as the
solution. However, the proposal
to extend the 44 was dependent
on consultation with other
affected residents before any
decisions could be finalised.”
The proposed change to the
No 44 route would have included
travelling to and from Innes
Rd via Philpotts Rd, Glenfield
Cres, Roslyn Ave, Croziers Rd,
Ranger St and Nancy Ave.
Several submissions against
the No 44 extension suggested
other alternatives to the Orbiter

re-route that had previously
been considered by ECan.
Mr Gibbon said he
understood that the decision left
residents and staff of Diana Isaac
Retirement Village without close
access to a bus service, at least in
the short-term.
“Operating an accessible
public transport network is a
priority. We will continue to
work together with the village
residents, Ryman Healthcare,
the Mairehau community and
the city council to investigate the
best way to ensure appropriate
access to the network,” he said.
The Orbiter change is expected
to be put in place in the next few
months, with the exact date to
be confirmed.
A PAPANUI bus is one of seven
Metro services that will change.
From Monday, bus No 28 will
be extended from Papanui to also
travel to Bishopdale, Casebrook
and Northwood.
Earlier this year, Environment
Canterbury consulted on
proposed changes for public
transport as part of its Long
Term Plan 2018-28, to help
address a financial shortfall in
the public transport network.
The other routes affected by
these changes are the 107, 108,
135, 145, 150 and 535, all of
which were originally set to be
axed to fill a $4 million funding
shortfall in February.
The routes had the lowest
patronage in the city, accounting
for 2.3 per cent of all bus travel
between them.
After listening to public feedback
throughout the Long Term
Plan process, a final package
of changes was agreed, and the
routes spared.
Senior manager public transport
Stewart Gibbon urged people
to check the new timetables if
they travel on those services.
“The new timetables are available
now at metroinfo.co.nz. You

Metroinfo on 03 366 8855,” said
Mr Gibbon.
Among the key changes, No

combined route travelling to New
Brighton via the new Taiora QE
II, retaining the current connection
between New Brighton and
Burwood Hospital and allowing
for more connections across the
north-east of Christchurch.
The No 45 will travel from
Westmorland to the CBD, via
Barrington Mall.
A new shopper service, No
155, will be introduced to run
between Lyttelton and Eastgate
via Ferrymead, The Tannery,
Woolston, Bromley and Eastgate.

BISHOPDALE’S Bernadette
Barrett will put months of
training to the test at the New
Zealand Spelling Bee next month.
The home-schooled 15-year-old
will compete against 18 of the
country’s top young spellers on
November 3 in Wellington.
The rigorous “competition
against the dictionary” began with
a written classroom test,
which found the top 200
spellers in the country
who then went headto-head
in six regional
semi-finals across New
Zealand.
The winner will
receive a trophy and
$5000 towards their
academic pursuits. Now
in its 14th year, the
New Zealand Spelling
Bee is a competitive
spelling event aimed at
encouraging students to gain a
love of the English language.
Spelling bee founder Janet Lucas
is expecting a tough competition
– with many of the spellers taking
an extremely competitive stance
and working hard for the win.
“It will be an interesting final.
There are some amazing spellers,
some who are in the final for the
second year in a row, and many of

them really want to win and have
worked hard to get here,” she said.
“One of the things that’s great
about the spelling bee is that
anyone can take part – money
is no barrier, which makes it
fair and equal for everyone. Our
sponsorship from the Wright
Family Foundation means that
the finalists win airfares and
accommodation for
themselves and a parent
or caregiver to travel to
the final – successful
students don’t have to
fundraise to get there.”
Ms Lucas said it was
a fallacy that in the
age of the spellchecker,
knowing how to spell was
not important.
“It’s actually more
important than ever.
By widening word
knowledge, children
are better able to understand
and enjoy language, be it online,
spoken, or in print,” she said.
“Lack of communication skills
is at the root of so many problems
in society. The spelling bee aims
to increase vocabulary, leading
to effective communication skills
and a person’s ability to express
themselves.”
Students cook up spicy book
A COOK book inspired by
recipes from refugees and
immigrants has been created by
a group of year 12 Rangi Ruru
Girls’ School students.
Lucy Johnson, Tulsi Lathia,
Sarah Lawrence and Victoria
Park compiled the 100-page
book as part of the Lion Young
Enterprise programme. Spoonful
of Spice is set to be released
before Christmas.
Rangi Ruru teacher Jacqui
Griffith said the book was an
opportunity for the girls to put
their skills to work.
“These enthusiastic young
women began the year with a
vision of exposing the difficulties
migrants have faced on their
journeys to start a new life,” she
said.
“And that’s precisely what
they’ve achieved. But more than
this, it has also been an opportunity
for the girls to develop
and exhibit their leadership and
entrepreneurial skills.”
The girls first got in touch
with a group of refugees and
migrants six months ago, and
organised a series of potluck
dinners where the women
prepared and served traditional
meals from their homelands.
In the cookbook, recipes from
the dinner are accompanied
by interviews with the women.
The book aims to break down
barriers between migrant communities
and locals.
“It’s hard when you feel so
isolated,” Lucy said.
SPICY: Rangi Ruru Girls’ School students Tulsi Lathia and
Lucy Johnson have collated recipes for their cook book
called Spoonful of Spice.
“People really wanted to share
their recipes and their stories
with us, and in publishing it,
we’re helping break down the
barriers that exist between our
communities.”
They received funding from
awards including the Cora
Wilding memorial fund, Coffee
Culture local hero awards and
the YMCA youth voice awards.
Pre-orders for the book are
being taken now.
The girls are talking to a number
of businesses about stocking
their cookbook.
They are also looking at demonstration
evenings with the
migrant women and a possible
second edition.

Veteran Northwood gardener takes
The spring garden
competition has put some
of the city’s most beautiful
gardens in the spotlight,
with Northwood resident
Peter Lawrence taking out
the top award. Ashleigh
Monk talks to him about
what makes his section
stand out
GREEN FINGERS: Northwood
resident Peter Lawrence in his
award-winning garden with
his dog Roxy.
NORTHWOOD’S Peter
Lawrence has always taken pride
in his garden – and moving to
a smaller section hasn’t stopped
him from winning a top garden
award.
Mr Lawrence won the Andrews
Cup at the Christchurch
Beautifying Association’s spring
garden competition.
He has competed “just about
every year” since 1974 and has
won the cup numerous times.
This was his first year working on
a smaller section.
“I was actually living next door,
but it was time to down-size so I
wouldn’t have such a big garden.
This is the first year I’ve entered
with this garden,” he said.
“I feel really good to have won.
There were some lovely gardens
out there.”
He said he has worked to get
the garden looking perfect over
the past year.
“Laying the lawns, cutting out
where the garden was going to
be. I had a vision in my head of
what it was going to look like and
it turned out really well.”
Mr Lawrence said gardening
was a “great past-time”,
regardless of the awards.
“It gets you out and the
neighbours talk to you, everyone
that passes talks to you,” he said.
“I’ll keep going as long as I’m
able to. I like a nice garden, it
offsets the house and upgrades
the area a bit. It’s nice to have an
area that people can enjoy.”
Parklands resident Joceylin
Ching was awarded a certificate
of merit in the competition for
her garden at 153 Royal Park
Drive.
After the earthquakes, the
former Dallington resident
scoured the red zone and rescued
a number of rose bushes.
She moved to Parklands
from her Cheam St home after
being red-zoned and the roses
flourished.
“I lot of the roses I picked up
from people who were leaving the
red zone,” she said.
“It’s great now seeing it all
come together, considering how
sick a lot of the plants were when
I lifted them up.”
Christchurch Beautifying
Association president Ron
Andrews said it had been the best
spring awards since before the
quakes.
“This competition has been
well-attended over the years,
right up until the earthquake.
We lost a lot of gardens after that,
and it hasn’t been quite the same.
But we’ve had a record year – this
is the first time we’ve exceeded
the 40 or so entries,” he said.
He wanted to encourage more
people to take part in the awards
even if they didn’t have much
gardening experience.
“A lot of people feel they can’t
compete with some of the top
gardens, and of course that is
difficult, but we’re encouraging
people to come along, learn
to built up their competition
gardens, and we’re starting to get
more interest. Things are looking
really good.”

St Bede’s brothers play
indoor cricket for NZ
• By Jacob Page
TWO BROTHERS from St
Bede’s College found success
with New Zealand age-group
indoor cricket teams over the
school holidays.
Jackson Hemingway is part
of the under-17 national team
and younger brother Brodie is
part of the under-13 side. Both
competed in the junior world
series at Action Indoor Sports
Hornby.
Jackson’s team won their
grade, beating South Africa
in the final, while Brodie’s
under-13 team finished third.
The brothers both play their
outdoor cricket for St Bede’s
College and live at North Beach.
The junior world series saw
eight teams from New Zealand,
four each from Australia, South
Africa and England, as well as
two from Singapore, compete
across several age-groups for
more than a week.
In June Brodie’s under-13
Canterbury team won their
national title, while Jackson’s
under-17 Canterbury team
finished runner-up.
Jackson, who has been a
regular in Christchurch Metro
outdoor teams, as well as the
St Bede’s College first XI, is a
talented batsman. He usually

comes in during the final
partnership in indoor cricket
and looks to get his team home
or add runs to the total at an
accelerated pace.
“There’s definitely a skill to
it, that’s for sure,” he said. “You
have to rotate the strike while
managing risk and taking on
the big shot when needed.”
Brodie opens the batting in
both forms of the game and
said he was thrilled to make the

St Andrew’s keeper
in World Cup squad
• By Jacob Page
ST ANDREW’S College student
Blair Currie has been named
in the New Zealand under-17
women’s football team to
compete at the World Cup in
Uruguay.
The year 13 goalkeeper, who
plays her club football for Cashmere
Technical, was one of six
Mainland players to be named in
the 21-strong squad on Wednesday.
Other players who made the cut
were Marissa van der Meer (FC
Twenty 11, Middleton Grange),
Macey Fraser (Waimak United ,
Rangiora High School), Gabrielle
Rennie (Waimak United, Rangiora
High School), Jayda Stewart
(Waimak United, Papanui High
School) and Amelia Abbott
(Nelson).
The squad will depart on
November 3 with their first game
coming against Finland on November
14.
Currie transferred to Cashmere
Technical from Waimakariri
United at the start of the season.
When she began playing
football as a six-year-old, she said
she did not initially start out as a
goalkeeper and actually spent a
season playing rugby.
“I used to watch my dad play
masters (football) on the weekend
so thought I’d give it a try,” she

goalkeeper Blair Currie is off

Uruguay next month. PHOTO:
MAINLAND FOOTBALL
said. It wasn’t until she was 13
that she gave goalkeeping her full
focus.
“I’d always ask the coaches if
I could give it a go and I really
loved it when the goalkeeper was
away,” she said.
“Eventually I just did it all the
time.”
Currie was also named women’s
goalkeeper of the year at the
Mainland Football awards night
this month.

Goodbye to Westview Lounge
and Chalmers Restaurant
e DnD Duo
THE entire west wing of the Hornby WMC
closes this weekend. e closure heralds Stage
1 of an exciting two-year redevelopment
project commencing in November.
“It’s a major $18 million redevelopment
that involves the demolition and rebuilding of
half the Club’s current premises,” said Paul
Inwood, General Manager. “e main bar area
needed to be earthquake strengthened, so the
Board decided to look at the bigger picture
and create a multi-functional facility where
families can spend more time in a relaxed
environment.”
e new west wing, to be completed by the
end of 2019, will incorporate a large sports bar
on the ground floor and a mezzanine floor
above with a performance area and a cafe
opening out to a deck with indoor/outdoor
eating options.
Next stage, the current east wing main bar
will be gutted and replaced with a family
restaurant; indoor children’s playground;
corporate areas; and hall for the Club’s sporting
sections. Completion date for Stage 2 is set at
12 months aer completion of Stage 1.
