Stroke victim back on his bike<br />

• By Anan Zaki<br />

A KEEN cyclist and triathlete<br />

Grant Cowan enjoyed an active<br />

life.<br />

But his world came crashing<br />

down 18 months ago when he<br />

suffered two strokes.<br />

The former police officer and<br />

father of two teenagers lost the<br />

ability to speak, lost feeling in his<br />

right arm and right leg.<br />

Mr Cowan’s cycling hobby<br />

came to a halt. He now resides<br />

at St John of God care facility in<br />

Halswell.<br />

Having lost touch with pedals,<br />

Mr Cowan’s family and friends<br />

took him to the New Zealand<br />

Bike Expo last week.<br />

It was there, that they saw an<br />

expression almost unseen for a 18<br />

months.<br />

Said his friend of 30 years<br />

Rodger Wyatt: “The look on<br />

his face, he was just absolutely<br />

humming.”<br />

“I didn’t know you could enjoy<br />

someone else’s joy so much,” he<br />

said.<br />

Mr Cowan, 52, tried a<br />

recumbent tricycle. The trike is<br />

able to be ridden while sitting<br />

down.<br />

“I was just wrapping my brain<br />

on how do we get this to happen<br />

and get some public support,” he<br />

said.<br />

Mr Wyatt gathered two of<br />

Mr Cowan’s closest friends and<br />

former cycling teammates, Jan<br />

Hales and Derrick Murray, to buy<br />

the trike.<br />

But the trike was $16,500.<br />

The trio quickly hatched a plan<br />

to raise money for Mr Cowan.<br />

They will race in the Blue Dog<br />

six-hour blast at McLeans Island<br />

on Saturday, a race that the team<br />

previously took part in with Mr<br />

Cowan.<br />

Mr Murray, who now lives in<br />

Sydney, will fly across the ditch to<br />

fundraise.<br />

“We’ve got a spot for Grant,<br />

he’s in the team but obviously he<br />

can’t race,” Mr Murray.<br />

“It seems like a very fitting way<br />

to get word out about our mate,”<br />

Mr Murray said.<br />

The race at McLeans Island<br />

brought back many memories,<br />

Mr Wyatt said.<br />

“We did a race together out at<br />

McLeans Island as a mixed team<br />

about four or five years ago.<br />

“Grant came off his bike and<br />

tore his leg open on his gear<br />

leaver. It was pretty ugly.”<br />

Mr Cowan was taken to<br />

hospital and the team finished<br />

second place.<br />

“We still bag Grant now about<br />

letting the team down,” Mr<br />

Wyatt said.<br />

He said Mr Cowan is aware<br />

that his friends are trying to help<br />

him.<br />

“He knows he wants a bike,<br />

he knows it’s going to give him<br />

something to look forward to.<br />

“I think he’s had a reasonably<br />

dark 18 months and the look<br />

on is face [on Monday] was just<br />

extraordinary,” Mr Wyatt said.<br />

Mr Murray just wants to see his<br />

best friend mobile again.<br />

“My thing is, he’s my best<br />

mate, we’ve done so many crazy<br />

adventures all over the South<br />

Island,” he said.<br />

“He doesn’t deserve to be in<br />

a rehab facility, we just thought<br />

we’ve got to find a way at to at<br />

least come on a small ride with<br />

us,” Mr Murray said.<br />

He also wants to raise<br />

friend of 30 years<br />

Rodger Wyatt<br />

(above) is helping<br />

raise money for the<br />

IF EVER a guy deserved a helping hand it’s<br />

Grant Cowan (see page 1).<br />

Life has dealt him a terrible blow; two<br />

strokes at a still relatively young age.<br />

Now his mates have rallied to raise funds<br />

for a special bike for this once very good sportsman.<br />

I can vouch for Grant. My contact with him was in our<br />

basketball team, many years ago now, but I can still see him as<br />

an imposing figure under the basket. He was also a top bloke.<br />

Grant was also a top martial arts exponent, went onto cycling<br />

and as mentioned a natural basketballer.<br />

His fundraiser is a worthy cause.<br />

New method to beat midges<br />

A NEW WAY of controlling the<br />

plague of midges at the Bromley<br />

oxidation ponds will be trialled<br />

over the coming months.<br />

The city council will be<br />

disturbing the bottom of the<br />

ponds where the midge lay<br />

their larvae by mechanically<br />

dragging chains across the pond<br />

floor.<br />

The chains will be dragged by<br />

a boat travelling across the ponds<br />

at a steady walking pace.<br />

It is a control method that has<br />

delivered promising results at<br />

the Mangere oxidation ponds<br />

in south Auckland, which has<br />

also historically been plagued by<br />

midge problems.<br />

“At the moment the Bromley<br />

oxidation ponds are the perfect<br />

breeding ground for midges, so<br />

in order to control their numbers,<br />

we need to make the ponds<br />

more inhospitable. We believe<br />

that mechanically disturbing the<br />

floor of the ponds is a quick, costeffective<br />

way we can do that,’’<br />

said city council three waters and<br />

waste operations manager Adam<br />

Twose.<br />

“We will need to use the boat<br />

on the ponds every 10 days for<br />

about five hours. The result from<br />

Mangere suggest that it should<br />

lead to a reduction in the midge<br />

population this summer.’’<br />

SWARM: The midge population plaguing Aranui and Bromley will be controlled by chains which<br />

will be dragged by a boat across the oxidation pond.<br />

Mr Twose said longer term<br />

there are plans to change the<br />

engineering of the ponds so that<br />

the inflow of treated wastewater<br />

can be altered to create a less<br />

hospitable environment for the<br />

midges.<br />

The city council is also doing<br />

more planting around the ponds<br />

to reduce the light from nearby<br />

homes so that midges, which, like<br />

moths, are naturally attracted<br />

to light, are not drawn towards<br />

them.<br />

“It is going to take a while for<br />

the plants to grow up to the point<br />

where they make an effective<br />

screen but in the meantime<br />

we’re hoping we can provide<br />

nearby residents with some<br />

relief from the midges this<br />

summer through the mechanical<br />

disturbance work we’re doing,’’<br />

Mr Twose said.<br />

Hooked on fishing<br />

McMaster & Heap<br />

Veterinary practice<br />

THE DANGER OF<br />

FEEDING BONES<br />

Hillmorton’s Lucas Rolston, 6, joined about 5000 other<br />

children and parents at The Groynes lakes for the annual Take<br />

a Kid Fishing event<br />

With the popularity of feeding raw food<br />

diets now, we are seeing on the rise<br />

intestinal damage and blockages due to<br />

dogs eating the wrong sort of bones on a<br />

regular basis. Over the past six months we<br />

are doing exploratory surgeries to remove<br />

bones that have got lodged somewhere in<br />

the gastrointestinal tract almost on a weekly<br />

basis– often we see these patients late Friday<br />

afternoon so they end up being operated on<br />

that night and transferred to the afterhours.<br />

All this costs a lot of money and is stressful<br />

for the owner. I’m not saying all bones are<br />

bad but I think owners have to be aware of<br />

the pitfalls, research carefully the safer bone<br />

options like raw meaty bones and supervise<br />

carefully when there pooch is having a good<br />

old chew.<br />

In some adult dogs with no medical issues,<br />

feeding balanced and complete raw diets<br />

may be okay but we at McMaster & Heap<br />

will never be advocates of feeding most<br />

bones on a regular basis and certainly not to<br />

puppies. Very occasionally feeding a large<br />

RAW meaty cannon bone is great for teeth<br />

cleaning and general enjoyment. I limit Lola<br />

my Labrador to a raw cannon bone twice<br />

a month and it’s binned after one hour of<br />

chewing. Once I forgot to take the bone<br />

away and after three hours she was still<br />

knawing away and the pulp in her upper<br />

canine had bled into the tooth. Luckily it<br />

healed quickly and she didn’t need the tooth<br />

extracting.<br />

The nutritional value of bones is poor and<br />

their complication rate high. Dental disease<br />

is common and we will often see fractured<br />

canines and dying teeth from the pulp of<br />

the tooth getting permanently damaged<br />

from continual chewing on a hard object<br />

for too long. Again supervision is needed.<br />

Gastrointestinal disease, presenting with<br />

vomiting, regurgitation, diarrhoea and<br />

inappetance is commonplace (especially<br />

with the feeding of cooked bones ) as is the<br />

dreaded and expensive to treat “pancreatitis”<br />

patient. Baked or barbequed bones become<br />

hard and brittle causing splintering and<br />

subsequent piercing of the softer tissues.<br />

And then we have the blockages, where<br />

bone is “stuck” and can’t be pushed<br />

along with peristalsis, requiring surgical<br />

intervention – not a cheap option but a<br />

necessary one if we are to save the patients’<br />

life.<br />

Now we come to my beloved “Henry” who<br />

regularly loves to visit me and have some<br />

sort of operation fairly regularly. We have a<br />

close relationship now. In January he was<br />

This is Henry NOT<br />

allowed on the furniture<br />

very sick with pancreatitis and hospitalised<br />

for days, then in August on a Sunday we<br />

surgically removed a foreign body from his<br />

small intestine and very recently he got a<br />

large knuckle bone completely stuck in his<br />

oesophagus requiring emergency surgery.<br />

He usually bounces back quickly from<br />

surgery but this last visit he’s had a few quite<br />

serious complications from eating bones.<br />

The large knuckle was removed through his<br />

pharygnx carefully with the use of forceps.<br />

Due to the oesophageal damage he’s had<br />

difficulty eating and regurgitation issues.<br />

He also had exploratory surgery to remove<br />

many sharp shards of bone from his stomach<br />

that were not able to pass through Henrys<br />

intestine. As a result of the regurgitation due<br />

to the surgery and eating of bones, he now<br />

has aspiration pneumonia which is holding<br />

his usually super recovery back. Henry<br />

has spiking fevers daily, feels listless and is<br />

off his food – a rare event for a Labrador!!<br />

He is currently taking nine medications,<br />

four of which are antibiotics. He’s been a<br />

daily inpatient getting intravenous fluids<br />

to support him as he hasn’t wanted to<br />

drink much. His owners are performing<br />

coupage several times a day to help clear<br />

secretions from the lungs. This is a bit like<br />

physiotherapy on the lungs to dislodge<br />

mucous and fluid pooling in the lungs so<br />

Henry can breathe easier. He coughs up the<br />

secretions in his airways and swallows them.<br />

Suffice to say the latest update from Henry<br />

is great news. He’s back home, eating<br />

much better, off intravenous fluids but still<br />

on a variety of medications. Pneumonia<br />

will probably take three to four weeks<br />

of antibiotic therapy to clear his lungs<br />

completely. Henry was very lucky as his<br />

owners will do anything for him and acted<br />

quickly getting him to us. He’s certainly<br />

worthy though of the love he has from us<br />

all. As you can see from his photo, he’s one<br />

“cool dude”.<br />

Earlier this year, Environment<br />

Canterbury consulted on<br />

proposed changes for public<br />

RE-ROUTE: Public transport-users are advised to check their bus routes as changes to some<br />

Metro bus services come into effect on Monday.<br />

transport as part of its Long<br />

Term Plan <strong>2018</strong>-28, to help<br />

address a financial shortfall in<br />

the public transport network.<br />

Other routes affected by the<br />

changes will be the 107, 108,<br />

135, 145, 150 and 535, all of<br />

which were originally set to be<br />

axed to fill a $4 million funding<br />

shortfall in February.<br />

The routes had the lowest<br />

patronage in the city, accounting<br />

for 2.3 per cent of all bus travel<br />

between them. After listening to<br />

public feedback throughout the<br />

Long Term Plan process, a final<br />

package of changes was agreed,<br />

and the routes spared.<br />

ECan senior manager public<br />

transport Stewart Gibbon<br />

urged people to check the new<br />

timetables.<br />

“The new timetables are<br />

available now at metroinfo.<br />

co.nz. You can also collect<br />

a timetable from the Bus<br />

Interchange or by calling<br />

Metroinfo on 03 366 8855,” said<br />

Mr Gibbon.<br />

Among the key changes, the<br />

135 and 150 buses will form a<br />

new combined route travelling<br />

to New Brighton via the new<br />

Taiora QE II, retaining the<br />

current connection between<br />

New Brighton and Burwood<br />

Hospital and allowing for more<br />

connections across the northeast<br />

of Christchurch.<br />

Free bus for<br />

Linwood<br />

College<br />

students<br />

• By Ashleigh Monk<br />

A FREE bus service will be<br />

provided for Linwood College<br />

students when they move to<br />

the former Avonside Girls’<br />

High site while their school is<br />

rebuilt.<br />

Linwood College will occupy<br />

the site from the middle of next<br />

year until the rebuild is finished<br />

in mid-2021.<br />

The Ministry of Education<br />

will pay for a free bus service<br />

to shuttle students between<br />

Linwood and Avonside.<br />

Linwood College principal<br />

Richard Edmundson said his<br />

“heart gave a leap” when the<br />

ministry offered to fund the<br />

service. He was also excited<br />

about the upcoming rebuild.<br />

“The buildings are a vehicle for<br />

the values and what is important<br />

to the community – that’s what<br />

is at the heart of it.”<br />

Ministry of Education head of<br />

education infrastructure service<br />

Kim Shannon said the bus<br />

service would help “minimise<br />

the impact” of the relocation on<br />

students.<br />

Veteran gardener wins another cup<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

The spring garden<br />

competition has put some<br />

of the city’s most beautiful<br />

gardens in the spotlight,<br />

with Northwood resident<br />

Peter Lawrence taking out<br />

the top award. Ashleigh<br />

Monk talks to him about<br />

what makes his section<br />

stand out<br />

NORTHWOOD’S Peter<br />

Lawrence has always taken pride<br />

in his garden – and moving to<br />

a smaller section hasn’t stopped<br />

him from winning a top garden<br />

award.<br />

Mr Lawrence won the Andrews<br />

Cup at the Christchurch<br />

Beautifying Association’s spring<br />

garden competition.<br />

He has competed “just about<br />

every year” since 1974 and has<br />

won the cup numerous times.<br />

This was his first year working on<br />

a smaller section.<br />

“I was actually living next door,<br />

but it was time to down-size so I<br />

wouldn’t have such a big garden.<br />

This is the first year I’ve entered<br />

with this garden,” he said.<br />

“I feel really good to have won.<br />

There were some lovely gardens<br />

out there.”<br />

He said he has worked to get<br />

the garden looking perfect over<br />

the past year.<br />

“Laying the lawns, cutting out<br />

where the garden was going to<br />

be. I had a vision in my head of<br />

what it was going to look like and<br />

it turned out really well.”<br />

Mr Lawrence said gardening<br />

was a “great past-time”,<br />

regardless of the awards.<br />

“It gets you out and the<br />

neighbours talk to you, everyone<br />

that passes talks to you,” he said.<br />

“I’ll keep going as long as I’m<br />

able to. I like a nice garden, it<br />

offsets the house and upgrades<br />

the area a bit. It’s nice to have an<br />

area that people can enjoy.”<br />

Parklands resident Joceylin<br />

Ching was awarded a certificate<br />

of merit in the competition for<br />

her garden at 153 Royal Park<br />

Drive.<br />

After the earthquakes, the<br />

former Dallington resident<br />

scoured the red zone and rescued<br />

a number of rose bushes.<br />

She moved to Parklands<br />

from her Cheam St home after<br />

being red-zoned and the roses<br />

flourished.<br />

“I lot of the roses I picked up<br />

from people who were leaving the<br />

red zone,” she said.<br />

“It’s great now seeing it all<br />

come together, considering how<br />

sick a lot of the plants were when<br />

I lifted them up.”<br />

GREEN FINGERS: Northwood<br />

resident Peter Lawrence in his<br />

award-winning garden with<br />

his dog Roxy.<br />

Christchurch Beautifying<br />

Association president Ron<br />

Andrews said it had been the best<br />

spring awards since before the<br />

quakes.<br />

“This competition has been<br />

well-attended over the years,<br />

right up until the earthquake.<br />

We lost a lot of gardens after that,<br />

and it hasn’t been quite the same.<br />

But we’ve had a record year – this<br />

is the first time we’ve exceeded<br />

the 40 or so entries,” he said.<br />

He wanted to encourage more<br />

people to take part in the awards<br />

even if they didn’t have much<br />

gardening experience.<br />

“A lot of people feel they can’t<br />

compete with some of the top<br />

gardens, and of course that is<br />

difficult, but we’re encouraging<br />

people to come along, learn<br />

to built up their competition<br />

gardens, and we’re starting to get<br />

more interest. Things are looking<br />

really good.”<br />

Seventhwave moves back home<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

• By Matt Salmons<br />

WELL-KNOWN wetsuit<br />

manufacturer Seventhwave<br />

has returned home, bringing<br />

its entire operation back to its<br />

original Ferrymead site.<br />

The company moved to a site<br />

on Dyers Rd, Bromley, the day<br />

before the September 4, 2010,<br />

earthquake.<br />

Managing director Sarah<br />

Armstrong-Park said the refitted<br />

shop opened on Monday morning.<br />

She said the staff were excited<br />

to move the manufacturing<br />

plant, showroom and headquarters<br />

back to the company’s<br />

original home.<br />

Sumner surfer Paul Zarifeh<br />

founded the company in 1987 as<br />

the Canterbury Wetsuit Company.<br />

Mr Zarifeh died of<br />

pancreatic cancer on<br />

November <strong>23</strong> aged 60. Three<br />

weeks later, his son Sam Zarifeh<br />

died after falling from a raft on<br />

the West Coast’s Landsborough<br />

River.<br />

The two were commemorated<br />

by a sculpture on the Esplanade<br />

which was installed in July.<br />

Said Mrs Armstrong-Park:<br />

“Paul was a lovely guy and even<br />

though we weren’t there [when<br />

Seventhwave was in Ferrymead]<br />

HOME AGAIN: Sarah Armstrong-Park outside the Seventhwave shop in Ferrymead.<br />

ourselves, it’s still like going<br />

home. For our staff, who’ve been<br />

here for a long time, they’re so<br />

excited.”<br />

Mrs Armstrong-Park and<br />

Leif Park took ownership of the<br />

company three years ago, and<br />

briefly considered whether it was<br />

feasible to continue manufacturing<br />

locally.<br />

“We decided that, really, that’s<br />

what the brand is, keeping it<br />

FOUNDER: Seventhwave<br />

was founded by the late Paul<br />

Zarifeh (right), whose son<br />

Sam died three weeks after<br />

his father last year.<br />

Kiwi. Taking it home really<br />

aligns with that.”<br />

She said the feedback from<br />

the surfing community has been<br />

positive. “Everyone’s really excited<br />

Experienced basketballers<br />

leave Cashmere High<br />

• By Jacob Page<br />

TWO OF Cashmere High<br />

School’s most experienced<br />

basketballers have ended their<br />

time in the senior team after<br />

a vastly different four years<br />

together.<br />

Tom Russ-Hofmans and Dylan<br />

Mahon have been part of the<br />

team for four years, along with<br />

Nic Wenmoth and Quinten<br />

Conner.<br />

Tom, 18, admits his final game<br />

for the South Island champs at<br />

the national championships this<br />

month – where the team finished<br />

ninth – was an emotional<br />

moment.<br />

“It was emotional knowing<br />

that there was no next year to<br />

aim for,” he said. “These guys<br />

have been like brothers to me<br />

and to know we won’t play<br />

together again was a little sad.”<br />

Said coach Paul Conner:<br />

“Games where (Tom) may have<br />

struggled to get into the grove<br />

early, as a coach you always knew<br />

you could rely on him down the<br />

stretch in the fourth-quarter,”<br />

Conner said.<br />

“(Tom) was happy to mix<br />

it inside the paint he would<br />

also use his soft touch to his<br />

advantage taking the shot from<br />

behind the arc.”<br />

While Tom played more<br />

minutes than any other on the<br />

EXPERIENCE: The four departing Cashmere High School senior<br />

basketballers Dylan Mahon (left), Nic Wenmoth, Tom<br />

Russ-Hofmans and Quinten Conner. PHOTO: PAUL CONNER<br />

team, for Dylan, 17, just making<br />

it onto the court at nationals was<br />

a victory.<br />

Dylan played his entire year 10<br />

season, but spent the next two<br />

years recovering after “snapping”<br />

his left anterior cruciate ligament<br />

(ACL) twice.<br />

The injury and rehabilitation<br />

took him two years of recovery<br />

time. “It was a hard time because<br />

I still wanted to be part of the<br />

squad so I’d turn up to trainings<br />

and games and do an assistant<br />

coach-type of role but it was<br />

tough not to get out there and<br />

add to my team,” he said.<br />

This year he was back in the<br />

starting five and helping his team<br />

to ninth in New Zealand.<br />

“Hopefully I can keep<br />

playing basketball at club level<br />

and see where it takes me,” Dylan<br />

said.<br />

Beating diabetes<br />

SPORTS<br />

• By Louis Day<br />

CLAIRE HAMPTON managed<br />

to overcome her type two<br />

diabetes within four months<br />

thanks to Sport Canterbury’s Be<br />

Active programme.<br />

Mrs Hampton’s blood glucose<br />

levels dropped from 89 hba1c to<br />

37 hba1c, anything less than 40<br />

is considered normal, whereas<br />

levels over 50 suggest someone is<br />

diabetic.<br />

“My doctor was so happy, she<br />

sent me a text saying I was a<br />

legend.”<br />

Mrs Hampton now volunteers<br />

in Sports Canterbury new<br />

diabetes-specific programme,<br />

which is run in conjunction with<br />

the Diabetes Centre at Linwood<br />

Medical Centre.<br />

Mrs Hampton said the Be Active<br />

programme gave her a new<br />

lease of life.<br />

“One part of the programme<br />

is focused on well-being and<br />

nutrition whereas the other is<br />

all about exercise. I found out<br />

through Be Active all the places I<br />

could go for exercise that worked<br />

for me. I did Zumba, line dancing,<br />

thai chi, mall walking, just<br />

all sorts.”<br />

Mrs Hampton said the new<br />

diabetes-specific programme<br />

LIFESTYLE: Claire Hampton’s<br />

blood glucose levels<br />

Participants have access to<br />

nutritionists and psychologists<br />

from the Diabetes Centre as<br />

well as the practice nurse from<br />

Linwood Medical Centre.<br />

Pre-diabetics and people with<br />

type two can come along to the<br />

programme, and others should<br />

keep an eye on their blood sugar<br />

levels by checking in with their<br />

GP.<br />

Cashmere Tech keeper in<br />

under-17 World Cup squad<br />

• By Jacob Page<br />

CASHMERE Technical<br />

goalkeeper Blair Currie has<br />

been named in the New Zealand<br />

under-17 women’s football team<br />

to compete at the World Cup in<br />

Uruguay.<br />

The year 13 St Andrew’s<br />

College student was one of six<br />

Mainland players to be named<br />

in the 21-strong squad on<br />

Wednesday.<br />

Other players who made the<br />

cut were Marissa van der Meer<br />

(FC Twenty 11, Middleton<br />

Grange), Macey Fraser<br />

(Waimak United , Rangiora<br />

High School), Gabrielle Rennie<br />

(Waimak United, Rangiora High<br />

School), Jayda Stewart<br />

(Waimak United, Papanui High<br />

School) and Amelia Abbott<br />

(Nelson).<br />

The squad will depart on<br />

November 3 with their first<br />

game coming against Finland on<br />

November 14.<br />

Currie transferred to<br />

Cashmere Technical from<br />

Waimakariri United at the start<br />

of the season.<br />

When she began playing<br />

football as a six-year-old,<br />

she said she did not initially<br />

start out as a goalkeeper and<br />

actually spent a season playing<br />

rugby.<br />

“I used to watch my dad play<br />

masters (football) on<br />

the weekend so thought I’d<br />

give it a try,” she said. It wasn’t<br />

until she was 13 that she gave<br />

goalkeeping her full focus.<br />

“I’d always ask the coaches if<br />

I could give it a go and I really<br />

loved it when the goalkeeper was<br />

away,” she said. “Eventually I just<br />

did it all the time.”<br />

Currie was also named<br />

women’s goalkeeper of the year<br />

at the Mainland Football awards<br />

night this month.<br />

CANTERBURY WON back-toback<br />

Collier Trophy under-13<br />

girls national hockey titles<br />

at North Harbour over the<br />

weekend.<br />

The team won in dominant<br />

fashion, scoring 27 goals in the<br />

week-long tournament and conceding<br />

just two.<br />

What made their back-to-back<br />

success more impressive was that<br />

only one of the squad, captain<br />

Keeley Hughes, returned from<br />

last year’s victorious squad.<br />

Canterbury defeated Central<br />

Otago in the final on Saturday.<br />

Canterbury beat Hawke’s Bay<br />

5-0 in their semi-final, thanks<br />

to two goals from Hughes and<br />

Kaiyah Ratu, as well as one from<br />

Holly Gilray.<br />

hockey trophy again<br />

Hastie and Ava Croton earned<br />

Canterbury their winning margin<br />

by half-time of the final.<br />

Coach Cathy Baker said the<br />

team trained hard defensively<br />

and emphasised their fitness<br />

prior to the tournament.<br />

“We tried to keep teams out of<br />

our circle and that worked well<br />

for the most part, plus we had a<br />

goalkeeper who stood up,” she<br />

said.<br />

“We tried to prioritise our<br />

fitness because after eight games<br />

in a week that can make a real<br />

difference for young kids.”<br />

Baker said the past two seasons<br />

have highlighted the level of<br />

talent coming through in Canterbury<br />

hockey.<br />

Three year 7 players can qualify<br />

again for the team next year to<br />

attempt the three-peat.<br />

an award-winning architect’s own home,<br />

and uncompromised style is showcased<br />

throughout. From the board and batten and<br />

cedar exterior through to the light-embracing<br />

living spaces, bamboo flooring and exquisite<br />

kitchen that features a scullery and marble/<br />

stainless bench tops.<br />

This property occupies an expansive<br />

1149sqm section that’s ensconced against<br />

the botanical backdrop of Drayton Reserve<br />

which can be appreciated from the dramatic<br />

open plan living area and decks.<br />

In addition to the dining/kitchen level you<br />

step down into the lounge which has inbuilt<br />

feature shelving and opens to the sundrenched<br />

deck. There’s also a separate media room and<br />

a sizeable self contained flat with bathroom,<br />

great for Airbnb or a work-from-home space<br />

which guarantees pleasurable family living.<br />

The outdoors is an oasis of calm and includes<br />

tiered entertaining spaces which provides you<br />

with flexibility, with a childrens play area at<br />

the foot of the garden surrounded by natives<br />

which further heightens the overwhelming<br />

sense of privacy and tranquillity.<br />

Comprehensive insulation, a gas fire and<br />

ducted air conditioning assure absolute<br />

comfort, and accommodation is offered<br />

by four double bedrooms with built-in<br />

wardrobes, with the master enjoying an<br />

ensuite. The remainder of the household<br />

shares a family bathroom.<br />

Situated in a cul-de-sac that boasts views<br />

over Drayton Reserve which stretch from<br />

the hillside across to the water, this home is<br />

peacefully located yet is approximately 10<br />

minutes’ drive from Sumner and a little over<br />

15 minutes from the CBD to provide you<br />

with a desirable balance of privacy, sun and<br />

surf.<br />

Buyers seeking elegance, individuality and<br />

an exceptional outlook will be attracted to<br />

this eye-catching architectural marvel.<br />

WORKSAFE NEW Zealand<br />

has b en a proached in a bid to<br />

fina ly repair the potholes in New<br />

Brighton’s Hawke St car park.<br />

Coastal-Burw od Ward city<br />

counci lor David East wants<br />

WorkSafe to pre sure the car<br />

park’s private owners into<br />

repairing the potholes which are<br />

a “trip and vehicle” hazard.<br />

WorkSafe chief inspector<br />

a se sment southern Da ren<br />

Handforth said it may be able to<br />

take action under the Health and<br />

Safety at Work Act 2015, “as a<br />

person conducting a busine s or<br />

undertaking.”<br />

Mr Handforth said WorkSafe<br />

is aware of the concerns raised by<br />

Cr East abou the car park.<br />

“WorkSafe has completed<br />

an a se sment visi to the site<br />

and is engaging with the owner<br />

to advise them that it is their<br />

responsibility to manage their<br />

risks a propriately.”<br />

Different parts of the car park<br />

are owned by various people<br />

and the Coastal-Burw od<br />

Community Board recently<br />

wrote to them about its concerns<br />

around health and safety.<br />

Cr East said the bi gest i sue<br />

in the past has b en ge ting in<br />

touch with the landlords and<br />

owners and ge ting them to<br />

agr e to anything. “The board<br />

a preciates that multi-ownership<br />

of the parking space may present<br />

a difficulty in co-ordinating<br />

repair/resurfacing but felt obliged<br />

to pa s these concerns onto you,”<br />

said the le ter.<br />

One reply has b en received so<br />

far from an owner who is wi ling<br />

to discu s the i sue. However, a l<br />

the owners would have to agr e<br />

to undertake work.<br />

Cr East said there had b en<br />

a “number of incidences” in<br />

the car park of people injuring<br />

themselves which had gone<br />

unreported.<br />

“I’ve always though that it<br />

has b en quite amazing that we<br />

haven’t had any serious a cidents<br />

or senior citizens perhaps<br />

tri ping in those potholes and<br />

doing themselve some damage.”<br />

He is confiden the new<br />

a proach wi l bring results.<br />

“I think the WorkSafe<br />

involvement may prove to be the<br />

lever that we are l oking for.”<br />

New bid to fix potholes<br />

Action looms<br />

on Hawke St<br />

THE PAPANUI-I nes<br />

Community Board has taken the<br />

rare step of starting a petition<br />

to figh the city council over<br />

funding.<br />

Signatures are being co lected<br />

in a bid to get funding for a community<br />

facility in Shirley.<br />

It comes after the city council<br />

removed funding for the centre<br />

pla ned for Shirley Rd, near the<br />

intersection with Hi ls Rd. This<br />

was the site of the former community<br />

centre, which was badly<br />

damaged in the February 2,<br />

20 1, earthquake.<br />

The removal o funding<br />

prompted community board<br />

chairwoman Ali Jones to threaten<br />

to stan down, citing it as her “die<br />

in the ditch” project.<br />

Ms Jone said the board’s role<br />

is to represen the community,<br />

and by gathering signatures from<br />

residents, it was fulfi ling that<br />

role.<br />

“One of the roles of a community<br />

board is to represent and act<br />

as advocate for the interests of its<br />

community and this is what we<br />

are doing. The LTP and a nual<br />

plans are a l about lo bying the<br />

Cave Rock<br />

Apartments’<br />

owners<br />

expect EQC<br />

sign-off<br />

this week<br />

• By Sarla Donovan<br />

THE OWNERS of Sumner’s Cave<br />

Rock Apartments ar expecting the<br />

Earthquake Commi sion to sign-off<br />

on a se tlement agr emen this w ek.<br />

Body corporate chairman Mike<br />

White said the group had gone<br />

into mediation with IAG and EQC<br />

on February 20, and signed off<br />

on a deal with IAG on February<br />

2 – coincidenta ly seven years<br />

to the day after the February 2,<br />

20 1, earthquake. However, they<br />

are waiting for EQC to sign the<br />

agr ement.<br />

“Given that EQC actua ly drafted<br />

the agr ement, there’ l be no<br />

problem with them doing that.”<br />

The apartment suffere damage<br />

in the February and June, 20 1,<br />

earthquakes and were demolished in<br />

late 2012. In 2016, IAG’s offer of the<br />

difference betw en indemnity value,<br />

$10 mi lion, and the sum insured,<br />

$16 mi lion, was rejected by the body<br />

corporate.<br />

The mediation agr ement<br />

prevented Mr White from disclosing<br />

the se tlement amount, but he said it<br />

involved the two parties paying “a bit<br />

more money than they’d wanted to<br />

earlier.”<br />

A WOOLSTON butcher proved<br />

to be a cut above the rest in an<br />

international competition.<br />

New World Fe ry Rd butcher<br />

Jeremy Garth and his team, the<br />

Pure South Sharp Blacks, recently<br />

came second a the World<br />

Butchers’ Cha lenge in Northern<br />

Ireland.<br />

It was the firs time Mr Garth<br />

had competed in the cha lenge<br />

and he was “rea ly proud” of<br />

how the team performed.<br />

“We produced some top quality<br />

products and came away<br />

with a g od result so we’re very<br />

ha py,” he said.<br />

The preparation for this year’s<br />

World Butchers’ Cha lenge was<br />

intense as the team members<br />

met in Auckland every two<br />

months for lengthy w ekend<br />

practices.<br />

Mr Garth, who has b en a<br />

butcher for 14 years, said the<br />

competition brought back his<br />

pa sion for the job.<br />

“Doing a l thi stuff and<br />

m eting new people, s eing new<br />

ideas, it just brings that flair<br />

back for you,” he said.<br />

Mr Garth hopes t own a<br />

butcher shop of his own someday<br />

but says for now he wi l focus<br />

on ge ting mor experience<br />

and on the 2020 cha lenge.<br />

“In two years’ time, we’ l be<br />

going back to try and win the<br />

title,” he said.<br />

Pupils learn about role of war horses<br />

GR ENDALE SCHOOL pupils<br />

have taken a step back in time,<br />

s eing first hand what men and<br />

horses l oked like during war.<br />

The New Zealand Mounted<br />

Rifles Charitable Trust president<br />

Mark A pleton and member<br />

Mike Donaldson t ok their<br />

horses to the sch ol on Monday,<br />

in a bid to educate pupils on the<br />

sacrifice their ancestors made in<br />

World War 1 and World War 2.<br />

Mr A pleton and Mr Donaldson<br />

a rived a the sch ol dre sed<br />

in World War 1 uniforms while<br />

their horses Tommy and Kruze<br />

wore 1 0-year-old sa dles donated<br />

to the trust.<br />

The presentation is a prelude<br />

to the Gr endale Recreation Reserve<br />

Management Commi t e’s<br />

upcoming Anzac Day service.<br />

As a tribute to those who<br />

served, members of the trust wi l<br />

ride horseback to the service.<br />

Mr A pleton said it was<br />

important children were<br />

educated on what soldiers<br />

wen through during World<br />

War 1 and World War 2.<br />

But he said the presentation<br />

didn’t go into t o much detail<br />

and was more of a “show and<br />

te l” to make them aware of what<br />

the soldiers l oked like.<br />

Children were shown the type<br />

of kits horses were required to<br />

wear in the war.<br />

AN U PER Ri carton butcher<br />

has proven himself to be a cut<br />

above his Au sie rivals at an<br />

international competition.<br />

Elite Meats owner Corey<br />

Winder was named in the a l<br />

star team a the World Butchers’<br />

Cha lenge in Northern Ireland.<br />

Mr Winder and his team, the<br />

Pure South Sharp Blacks, which<br />

includes W olston butcher<br />

Jeremy Garth, finished second<br />

in the competition.<br />

He said the cha lenge started<br />

as a “transtasman test match”<br />

seven years ago.<br />

The preparation for this<br />

year’s World Butchers’ Challenge<br />

was intense as the team<br />

members met in Auckland<br />

every two months for lengthy<br />

w ekend practices. Mr Winder<br />

said coming second against 1<br />

other countries was a “fantastic”<br />

result.<br />

“To get second behind Ireland<br />

was a huge achievement and to<br />

be ahead of Australia is an<br />

even bi ger thing for us,” he<br />

said.<br />

But Mr Winder admires the<br />

Australian team.<br />

“Those guys over there<br />

[Australia] are on top of their<br />

game, they do a g od job,” he<br />

said.<br />

“And it just showcases that<br />

New Zealand has got some<br />

of the best butchers in the<br />

world,” he said.<br />

Mr Winder has b en a butcher<br />

Ri carton Community Board<br />

has b en given the gr en ligh to<br />

Mayor Lia ne Dalziel told the<br />

board on Thursday it had the okay<br />

from the city council to make a<br />

submi sion if Fulton Hogan a plies<br />

for a resource consen to create a<br />

qua ry.<br />

Board chairman Mike Mora<br />

told Western News the submi sion<br />

would likely o pose Fulton Hogan’s<br />

plan.<br />

“You can just about guarant e<br />

it . because we [the community<br />

board] don’t believe qua ries<br />

should be so close to residential<br />

areas,” he said.<br />

Mr Mora said he wasn’t sure if<br />

the city council would endorse the<br />

board’ submi sion.<br />

“I’d like to think so because the<br />

city council has had their eyes<br />

open as we l ove recent years over<br />

the crysta line silica risk,” he said.<br />

Mr Mora said the community<br />

board wi l be “representing and<br />

advocating” for the Templeton<br />

THE entire west wing of the Hornby WMC<br />

that involves the demolition and rebuilding of<br />

half the Club’s current premises,” said Paul<br />

Inwood, General Manager. “e main bar area<br />

needed to be earthquake strengthened, so the<br />

Board decided to look at the bigger picture<br />

and create a multi-functional facility where<br />

families can spend more time in a relaxed<br />

environment.”<br />

e new west wing, to be completed by the<br />

end of 2019, will incorporate a large sports bar<br />

on the ground floor and a mezzanine floor<br />

above with a performance area and a cafe<br />

opening out to a deck with indoor/outdoor<br />

eating options.<br />

Next stage, the current east wing main bar<br />

will be gutted and replaced with a family<br />

restaurant; indoor children’s playground;<br />

corporate areas; and hall for the Club’s sporting<br />

sections. Completion date for Stage 2 is set at<br />

12 months aer completion of Stage 1.<br />

Choosing to live in a retirement village can be an<br />

overwhelming decision. You want to be sure you<br />

are making the right choice as there are several<br />

things to consider. You can give us a call and have<br />

a discussion about any concerns you may have<br />

and our team will be happy to help.<br />

What we can tell you is that becoming a village<br />

resident can be a great new chapter and can offer<br />

the opportunity to make a fresh start with some<br />

like-minded friends. A retirement village offers a<br />

community-type feel and atmosphere with the<br />

benefits of still having privacy and maintaining<br />

your independence.<br />
