Quake survey a bid to
help evacuation planning
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
PEOPLE LIVING along
the Brighton coast line who
evacuated the night of the
2016 Kaikoura earthquake are
being called on to take part in a
research project.
Canterbury University is
aiming to survey as many
residents as possible to collect
data on the tsunami evacuation
response that took place
following the
magnitude 7.8
earthquake nearly
two years ago.
Matthew
Hughes, one of
the academics
overseeing the
Matthew
Hughes
project, said
the survey isn’t
about asking for
opinions on the night of the
earthquake, it is about what
residents did in response to the
tsunami hazard.
The survey is part of a wider
research project led by GNS
Science and called Quicker
and Safer Tsunami Evacuation
through Agent-Based Modelling.
The project is looking at
tsunami risks and exposure in
Christchurch and Wellington
Dr Hughes said the data
collected from the survey is
going to be interesting in itself.
“But OPTION the really ONEcrucial
part of
BIG PROJECT: Canterbury University is surveying coastal residents on how they responded to
the tsunami hazard following the 2016 Kaikoura earthquake.

this is going to start informing
sophisticated computer
modelling of population
movements when they evacuate,”
he said.
The models will simulate
people evacuating after a
tsunami warning.
The project involves a
partnership with Civil Defence
Emergency Management, the
city council and Environment
Canterbury. It is planned the
information formed from the
research will be presented in a
series of workshops for affected
coastal communities next year.
It comes after confusion
following the quake, in which
hundreds were stuck in traffic for
more than an hour trying to get
to higher ground.
In the new survey, residents
will be asked how they knew
there was a potential tsunami
hazard, what they did when the
official warning went out, what
their knowledge of tsunami
hazards is, and how it influenced
their behaviour.
It will focus on residents
living in coastal areas in eastern
areas of the city, including New
Hearing aids –
the next generation.
Hearing aids that are smaller, look more stylish, and
are packed with features for people who are always
on the go.

technology valued up to $2000. *
Brighton and Southshore as well
as the Sumner, Redcliffs and the
wider Banks Peninsula area.
The survey also asks people to
draw the route they drove if they
evacuated.
“We want to map what they
did and try understand how
their prior state of knowledge
influenced that behaviour,” Dr
Hughes said.
He said the evacuation routes
collected from the survey will
go towards developing the
computer model, which will
help Civil Defence and other
agencies help with evacuation
planning.
Anzac Fire Station senior
station officer Shane O’Brien,
who was on duty the night
of the earthquake, said every
fire station in the city has an
emergency plan but the more
information it receives the
better.
Dr Hughes said the aim is for
evacuation paths and evacuation
zones to be further informed
by local knowledge when the
models are developed.
The survey will take place over
the next several months and a
preliminary report will
be completed at the end of
the year. To take part in the
survey, go to http://canterbury.

WE PAY tribute today to one of Shirley
Boys High School’s great staff members –
John Fox (page 6).
John passed away a couple of weeks ago
and the huge turnout to his funeral underlined
his popularity.
John was synonymous with sport at the school.
He was rugby development officer, managed and coached
the dragon boat team, was instrumental in the school’s crosscountry
and had a big hand in athletics.
He was the health officer at the school, looking after wellness
and first aid as well as liaising with the school’s guidance
department.
A fairly impressive record.
Also on sport, we have the Zonta Sports Awards winners and
finalists on page 13.
Rangi Ruru rowing and the Christchurch Girls’ High School
sevens team were big winners.

Playcentre a step closer to old site
• By Ashleigh Monk
BELFAST Playcentre is a
step closer to getting back
to its original site after a fire
destroyed the original building.
On Friday the Papanui-Innes
Community Board approved
a request to have two trees
removed from the centre’s land
on Main North Rd to make way
for a new relocatable building.
Belfast Playcentre coordinator
Julie O’Rourke
said she was pleased with the
decision as this was the second
time the playcentre had applied
to have the trees removed.
“They’re really average trees,
and we’ve asked to have them
removed before, so this was the
second go,” she said.
“When those trees were there
at our old centre, we used to
have rodents coming into the
building by climbing up the
trees. They were a real health
and safety issue for us, because
we don’t want rat and things
coming in.”
The playcentre had been
operating from the Spencerville
Community Hub since a fire
destroyed the centre a year ago.
The blaze started when
something was left on a hot
stove at a five-year-old’s
birthday party.
HOME: After its building was destroyed by fire, the Belfast Playcentre has been holding
classes at temporary sites like the Belfast Community Centre.
Ms O’Rourke said that while
she was grateful to be able to
use the space, it had affected the
playcentre’s roll.
“We haven’t been able to get
more people coming to the
playcentre because most people
are waiting for a building.”
“Some of the time we just
choose to go on outings, because
it’s quite hard for our parents
to actually physically get out to
Spencerville. So parents who
don’t have cars, it’s hard for
them, so that’s why we go out
so that we don’t lose contact
with everybody.” She said the
news that the trees were to be
removed would be “great news”
for the community.
“It’s been really tricky, but the
core group of parents have been
really determined to rebuild,
and everything I’ve heard
from the community is parents
are just waiting for it to be
rebuilt.”
She said there was no
definitive time line for the tree
removal, but she hoped the
centre would be back up and
running in time for the new
year.

remove two on-street car parks.
PLUNKET OPENING DELAY
The opening of the Redwood

again. Work on the building was
expected to be completed this

to December. The building was
being repaired following damage
from the earthquakes. The project
was originally scheduled to be
completed in June, but was
delayed due to the discovery of black

Love of Shakespeare gets Ruby to UK
St Margaret’s
student on
stage at Globe
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
THE WORK of William
Shakespeare hasn’t always been a
passion for St Margaret’s College
student Ruby Anderson.
But wanting to jump at any
opportunity to perform, she
was drawn into the playwright’s
theatrical work when she
took part in the national
SGCNZ University of Otago
Sheilah Winn Shakespeare
festival last year.
Now Ruby, 17, has been
selected alongside Christchurch
Rudolf Steiner School student
Quinn Kueppers to travel to
London to take part in an
intensive theatre programme
based around the Shakespeare’s
work.
Ruby said since taking part
in the festival, she had fostered
“such a love” for Shakespeare.
In fact when she took part
in it again this year, she was
compelled to direct and perform
a piece from Shakespeare’s
comedy As You Like It alongside
fellow student Emily Stewart.
The work was recognised with
a range of awards in both the
ON STAGE: Quinn Kueppers (second from left) and St Margaret’s College student Ruby
Anderson (third from left) performing William Shakespeare’s The Taming of the Shrew at the
SGCNZ National Shakespeare Schools Production.

regional and national sections of
the festival. “I think Shakespeare
for young people is dubbed
as non-relevant for people or
maybe not accessible to a young
generation but I think that
stigma is just so wrong,” she said.
She said the way his work has
lasted so long throughout history
is unlike any other author and
it is a testament to his work and
longevity.
Ruby and Quinn will join
24 students from around the
country in the Shakespeare
Globe Centre New Zealand
Young Shakespeare Company.
The students will travel to
London in July. Quinn said just
seeing London will be amazing,
but he is looking forward to
working with the directors and
performing at the Globe Theatre
the most. They were selected
from 48 students who took
part in the SGCNZ National
Shakespeare Schools Production
at Dunedin earlier this month.
The 48 students were whittled
down from 5000 who took part
in a series of national SGCNZ
University of Otago Sheilah
Winn Shakespeare festivals.
Ruby said she already has
a good bond with the other
students travelling to London
and is excited to work with them
again. “I am absolutely humbled
I have been selected for such an
opportunity,” she said.
Established in 1991, the
programme has seen 520
students travel to Shakespeare’s
Globe in London. The theatre
is a reconstruction of the Globe
Theatre which was built in 1599
by Shakespeare’s company Lord
Chamberlain’s Men. The twoweek
theatrical programme will
see the students take part in 12
rehearsals with Globe director
Tim Walker before they perform
for the public.

Fire rages, homes at risk
Pokie player thought hold up was a joke
• By Sophie Cornish
WHEN AN armed robber
ordered people playing the pokies
to lie on the floor, Jenny Hogg
thought it was a joke.
But when Ms Hogg saw the
offender’s firearm was not a toy
gun like she first thought, she
realised it was
serious.
Ms Hogg
was playing
the pokies on
Tuesday night
at Coasters
Tavern in
Redwood
Jenny Hogg
when three
armed robbers
held up the bar.
During the ordeal shortly
before 9pm, one patron, an
elderly man, tried to wrestle
with one of the robbers. It
is believed he was hit in the
forehead with the blunt end of a
machete.
Ms Hogg said he received a
cut to his forehead. A woman in
her 20s also received a fat lip, she
said.
A shot was fired during the
ordeal, which lasted between five
and eight minutes
Ms Hogg said she believes the
shot was fired at the roof. She
said she tried to tell jokes and
laugh to keep people calm.
“I didn’t even realise everyone
was lying on the floor. I thought
this guy had walked in as a joke. I
was still playing the pokies, then
I turned around and everyone
was on the floor and I thought
‘oh, sh*t’, I better get on the floor.
I was like ‘oh, you’re for real
mate.”
Detective Sergeant Brad
Greenstreet said the men,
who were armed with various
weapons, including a machete
and a firearm, threatened bar
staff and patrons and demanded
money.
The men left in a stolen dark
blue Mazda Familia hatchback
before dumping it nearby and
using a second vehicle to leave
the area.
They wore scarves over their
faces and black hoodies.
Detective Sergeant Greenstreet
called the incident “violent and
dangerous.”
He said his advice for people
in a situation like this would be
to comply with the offender’s
demands.
“These things can escalate and
get out of hand quickly.”
ON THE CASE:
A detective
at the scene
of the armed
robbery at
Coasters
Tavern in
Redwood.
“It is fortunate more
people were not seriously hurt.”
Ms Hogg believes about $4000
was taken.
Goldi Group Ltd general
manager Gareth Bull, a
representative of the company
that owns the tavern, said he
would not comment as the
robbery was under police
investigation.

Teen to walk
for charity in
memory of
grandmother
• By Ashleigh Monk
A ST Andrew’s College student
is set to take part in a charity
walk to raise money for breast
cancer, in honour of her
grandmother who died from the
disease.
Year 13 student Amiee
Bonniface will walk 10km in the
Pink Star Walk on November
10 to raise money for the Breast
Cancer Foundation.
Amiee’s grandmother
Gweneth Parry died of breast
cancer 16 years ago.
She said the money raised

Farewell to Shirley Boys’ stalwart
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
A LARGE send off was held to
honour long-serving Shirley
Boys’ High School staff member
John Fox.
Mr Fox died at Christchurch
Hospital on October 17 after
battling a ongoing illness.
He was farewelled with a
service at Shirley Boys’ High
School on Wednesday.
More than 1100 students and
about 500 old boys attended, plus
staff.
Headmaster John Laurenson
said Mr Fox was a huge part of
the school and meant a lot to the
students and staff.
He said a full school haka was
performed for Mr Fox, which
could be heard all the way back
past The Palms Shopping Centre.
Mr Fox had been heavily
involved with the school for
more than 18 years after his
children attended Shirley Boy’s
High in the late 1990s and early
2000s.
From about 2003, he
was employed as the rugby
development officer.
He also managed and coached
the school’s dragon boating
team.
Mr Laurenson said Mr Fox was
“instrumental” in cross-country
where he organised teams and
was involved in the school’s
athletics.
He was the health officer at the
school, looking after wellness
and first aid, as well as liaising
with the school’s guidance
department.
Mr Laurenson said his office
was a place where students would
go where they would be able to
talk off the record and unload to
someone who understood them
when there were problems.
“I would wander in and
he and I would talk about
inconsequential things but that
acted as a sort of a release for me
personally as well. That was the
type of person he was.”
Outside of school, family was a
major part of Mr Fox’s life and he
was secretary for the Canterbury
Rugby Football Union where he
managed multiple teams.
He grew up in Auckland and
attended Auckland Grammar
School.
He moved to Christchurch

Mr Fox fell ill several years
ago, but was involved with the

weekends, organising things

ADVERTORIAL
Former St Bede’s student
wins top architecture award
FORMER St Bede’s
College student Matthew
Durning has won a
prestigious Australian
urban design award.
His project, Brisbane’s
Fish Lane, won the
landscape architecture
award for urban design,
which was presented by
the Australian Institute of
Landscape Architects. It
will go alongside his earlier
awards, including the
Queensland urban design
award and the Queensland
minster’s award for urban
design.
Durning graduated from
St Bede’s in 2005 and then
completed a Masters in
Landscape Architecture at
Lincoln University before
moving to Brisbane in
2011 and then to Sydney
with landscape architect
company, RPS.
Fish Lane is a vibrant
inner-city laneway that
connects Brisbane’s
Cultural Centre and South
Bank to the suburban West
End.
It has 17 retailers,
including bars and
restaurants, plus 35 pieces
of public art.
DESIGNER: Former St
Bede’s College student
Matthew Durning
with the landscape
architecture award for
urban design.
Durning said
because Fish Lane is
spread over four blocks
with a multitude of
private owners and the
council, the need for a
comprehensive stakeholder
communication
Year after year, the Pataka Country
Christmas Shop, located at the north end of
Marshland Road, warmly invites customers
to enjoy a family-friendly experience
leading up to the festive season, with
children having the chance to choose their
own Christmas
decorations from
their extensive
selection.
Housed in an
historic brick apple
coolstore and an
adjacent farm
building, Pataka
offers Santas,
snowglobes, musical
features, nativity
scenes and much
more – all of them looking right at home
in this lovely setting. There will be even
more arriving too, as some stock has been
delayed this year, so keep popping in over
programme was
paramount.
“Because we were
turning an unused space
into a dynamic, 24-hour
retail, hospitality and
commercial area, we
had to come up with a
bold design to ensure a
successful transformation,”
he said.
“We wanted to create an
element of surprise and
intrigue so decided to turn
it into an ephemeral arts
scape.”
The judging panel said
Fish Lane delivered a
highly-curated urban
experience, celebrating
Brisbane’s unique lifestyle
as an outdoor city.
They also said it
embraced four key design
principles. It created a safe
and legible pedestrianfocused
street scape;
desirable and inspiring
sub-tropical spaces and
places that are responsive
to Brisbane’s climate; a
canvas for sustainable
innovation and creativity;
and a venue for the local
economy to thrive through
distinct niche retail and
commercial spaces.

Ouch! My feet hurt
Are your feet feeling tired or hurting? Do
you have corns or warts, calluses or fungus?
People take their feet for granted, until they
are in pain and then they will pay attention to
them.
Feet experience daily abuse from the way
people walk off balance, neglect them and
use them. We have all experienced pain from
a pair of shoes that doesn’t fit properly, and
which hinders our feet and their needed
breathing room and protection.
Until the pain in unbearable, most people
forget about the value of their feet.
Papanui Foot Clinic to the rescue!
At the Papanui Foot Clinic their focus is
to provide an efficient and effective footcare
solution for whatever is ailing your feet and to
provide answers that will keep you active and
comfortable.
If you are unsure what is wrong with your
feet, their team provides a full foot assessment
to identify any outlining issues. They will then
treat the cause to ensure your feet stay healthy
and keep you on the move.
Are you now or have you ever experienced:
• In-grown Toenail • Heal Pain
• Arch Pain • Bunions
• Diabetic Foot • Forefoot or Toe Pain
• Sports Injuries • Arthritic Feet
• Corns
• Callouses
• Toenail Fungal Infections
Have you had a foot injury and need
some rehabilitation? Children
often don’t complain but are
in constant need of having
their feet assessed during their
growing years to make sure
they don’t develop Sever’s
Disease. Especially children
who play sport. Children have
many feet concerns as they grow
and develop, and you can count on
The Papanui Foot Clinic as one of your
parental advisers.
Services include:
• Treatment of foot and ankle disorders,

knee pain, leg pain, ankle pain and foot pain
• Prescription of corrective foot orthotics (to
fit sports and/or fashion shoes)
• Advice on appropriate strength or stretching
requirements, and training programs
• Advice on each person’s specific
requirements in running shoes / football boots
and other sporting footwear, as well as dress
and casual shoes.

Dolphins, pile driving spark questions
Fire rages, homes at risk
• By Matt Salmons
THE BANKS Peninsula
Community Board will ask the
Lyttelton Port Company about
its plan to manage the impact
of pile driving on Hector’s
dolphins.
The board
decided to
question
LPC after a
presentation
from Māui and
Hector’s Dolphin
Defenders
Genevieve
Robinson
committee
member
Genevieve
Robinson last week.
She said she wanted to see
LPC’s cruise berth design and
marine mammal management
plans made publicly available.
She had questioned LPC on
its plans and said most of her
questions remained unanswered.
Community board member
Felix Dawson says the board
wants to assist Ms Robinson in
getting the answers she seeks as
other will be concerned about
the dolphins’ protection.
“We wanted to help get the
answers she wanted because
it’s important if she’s correct.
If there’s some doubt about the
correct approach being taken . . .
QUESTIONS: The Banks Peninsula Community Board is seeking information on LPC’s plan to
minimise the impact of pile driving on dolphins.
then we wanted to assist her.”
The board’s questions will
be combined with others from
the city council. They will be
sent this week through the
city council’s investment arm,
Christchurch City Holdings Ltd,
which owns the port, said a city
council spokeswoman.
The spokeswoman would
not say what the city council’s
additional questions will be.
Ms Robinson said she did not
believe LPC was doing enough
to prevent the negative effects of
pile driving.
“When they do pile driving, it
makes a noise into the water. That
is what concerns us regarding the
dolphins’ hearing,” she said.
LPC chief executive Peter
Davie said the welfare of Hector’s
dolphins was a priority during
construction of the new berth.
Marine pile driving is expected
to start next month, while some
land-based piling started earlier
this year. Mr Davie said work
needed to begin soon in the
water to have the berth ready for
the 2020/21 cruise season.
Most piles will be installed
between March and December
next year.
He said the size of the piles
for the berth was smaller than
initially planned to mitigate the
effects of the noise on dolphins.
“Modelling . . . shows underwater
sound energy per pile will be 100
times less,” Mr Davie said.
However, Ms Robinson did
not agree, saying the modelling
would not provide an accurate
measure of the sound generated.
Mr Davie said LPC had
undertaken recent noise
measurements, but the data was
“still being processed.”
Mrs Robinson said using screw
piling would generate “barely
any noise” if it was used instead.
Mr Davie said screw piling
would not be strong enough to
“create a seismically resilient
wharf” which could berth the
large cruise liners.
Otago University marine
science department head,
professor Stephen Dawson,
had conducted a study of earlier
pile-driving operations in
Lyttelton Harbour between 2014
and 2015.Prof Dawson’s team
positioned instruments around
the harbour which were attuned
to the frequency of the Hector’s
dolphins’ echolocation.
He said the instruments
recorded fewer dolphins during
pile driving. “It definitely denies
habitat. That is a fact.”
He said the underwater sound
of those piles being driven in was
at a similar level to a gunshot.
That could cause deafness
and change the behaviour of the
dolphins. Prof Dawson said pile
driving could see a substantial
decrease in dolphin numbers.

75 years of looking after children
Fire rages, homes at risk
ONE OF the city’s oldest
pre-schools is on the search for its
original class of 1943.
The not-for-profit community
run Avonside Early Childhood
Centre is this year celebrating its 75 th
year of offering quality education to
children.
The centre, on Woodham Rd,
started in 1943 as the Avonside Girls
High Nursery School, offering day
care to working mothers.
Established by pioneering psychologist,
Doreen Dolton, the pre-school
also gave high school students an opportunity
to observe and take part in
the care of children.
On Saturday the centre will be
marking its 75 th anniversary with a
day of activities for children past and
present.
“We would love nothing more than
to have some of the original class of ’43
join us on November 3 to help cut our
special 75 th birthday cake,” said senior
teacher Sue Downey.
“Like many pre-schools in the city’s
east we struggled with numbers in
the immediate aftermath of the 2011
earthquake which forced a number of
our families from the area.
“Thanks to the ongoing support
of our community, our roll is now
healthier than ever, putting us in a
great position to serve this area for
another 75 years,” Mrs Downey said.
The birthday party will feature a

Reality stars in Papanui for birthday
• By Ashleigh Monk
WHAT BETTER way to
celebrate your 50th birthday
than with your favourite reality
television stars?
Papanui businessman Kim
Buckley will fly Storage Wars
stars Sally and Laurence Martin
to New Zealand for his partner
Mandy Rooney’s birthday next
month.
The Martin’s make their living
buying and selling items at
auction, and along with Storage
Wars they have also starred in
the spin-off show Baggage Battles.
Mr Buckley, who owns a KB’s
Bakery, said he and Ms Rooney
met the couple in 2014 at their
Los Angeles, California, antiques
store Studio Antiques.
“We met them after I had a
heart attack over in America. It
was only a wee one, but shortly
after I’d gotten out of hospital we
went to visit their shop,” he said.
“I said to Mandy on the way
to LA airport ‘why don’t we call
in and see the Baggage Battles
people and see if they are at there
shop in El Segoda?’ It was right
by the airport, so we called in .
. . we all clicked straight away,
Laurence thought I was his long
lost brother.”
Mr Buckley said he and Ms
Rooney were not only fans of the
Martin’s, but also good friends.
“Every time we go to the US we
go and see them, we’ve got to be
quite good mates,” he said.
He said he and Ms Rooney
were not antique collectors.
“We are more into bar
memorabilia. But we like them
for them, and that’s likewise, and
just love their whole attitude.
They are lovely people. Laurence
is a bit eccentric, and Sally is just
a lovely, happy-go-lucky lady.”
He said the Martin’s had never
been to New Zealand, but were
looking forward to visiting.
Mr Buckley said he and Ms
Rooney met seven years ago
through friends.
“We didn’t actually like
each other at first, but through
lots of talking and getting
to know each other things
blossomed.”
He said Laurence and Sally
FAST FRIENDS: Baggage Battle stars

fans Kim Buckley and Mandy Rooney after the

Martin would be among
the estimated 170 people to
attend Ms Rooney’s birthday

The Martin’s would arrive
in Christchurch on November
22 for Ms Rooney’s birthday
on November 24 and stay until
December 10.
Free shuttles for New Brighton fireworks event
FREE SHUTTLE buses will be
made available on the night of
New Brighton’s annual fireworks
celebration to make it easier for
the public getting to and from the
event.
A Slide’n’Ride offer is being prepared
to help ease traffic around
the fireworks event on Friday.
The free shuttle buses will be
running from Taiora QE II to
New Brighton between 5pm and
8pm.
The buses will then depart New
Brighton between 9.30pm and
10.30pm.
Every bus passenger over the
age of five will get a complimentary
ticket for a hydroslide ride
at either Taiora QE II or at Jellie
Park.
City council events and art
manager Karena Finnie said
thousands of people will be
heading to the event and it did
not want them stuck in traffic for
hours.
“It’s bad for the environment
and takes the gloss off the night,”
she said.

FORMER ST Andrew’s College
student Thomas Russel is
not one to look back at past
accomplishments as his rowing
career takes off.
The Avon rower has
made the New Zealand
elite team in his first
season out of secondary
school ranks.
He was part of the
national team which
competed at the world
championships in
Bulgaria last month in
the men’s four.
The 19-year-old was
in the St Andrew’s under-17
coxed four which won gold at the
Maadi Cup secondary schools’
regatta in 2017.
Russel made the Southern
RPC, he won silver as part of the
New Zealand coxless four at the
Junior World Championships last
year and the under-23 coxless
four which won a bronze in
Poland in July.
Russel is not one to let the
quick success go to his head.
“I haven’t sat down and had a
look back at what I’ve achieved so

far, I just want to make the most
of every opportunity in front of
me,” he said.
He started rowing in 2014 by
following his mates to try it out.
Russel credited the St
Andrew’s coaches for his
progression and success at
Maadi Cup regattas.
Russel was hopeful
he would spend a lot of
his time at Rowing New
Zealand’s base at Lake
Karapiro to continue his
growth in the sport.
Russel has plenty of
familiar faces to help
ease him into the elite
squad with former crewmate
Ben Taylor is also in his first year
in the national set-up while top
single-sculler Robbie Manson is a
former StAC old boy.
Russel said while the Tokyo
Olympics was on his radar he
has tried not to put too much
pressure on himself.
“I’m happy to just be part of
the squad at this stage and if I’m
picked for a boat for Tokyo that
would be great, but for now, I just
want to keep getting better,” he
said.
DETERMINED: Canterbury kendo players Masa Matsunami (left), Tania Butterfield and Kai
Edwards all received medals at the South Island Kendo Championships at Papanui High School.
Runner-up for Matsunami
PAPANUI’S MASA Matsunami
was forced to settle for second to
clubmate and Cashmere High
School student Kai Edwards
at the South Island Kendo
Championships at Papanui High
School.
Edwards won the men’s dan
competition over his good friend
Matsunami in spite of having less
experience.
The event also marked the 30th
anniversary of the Canterbury
club.
Edwards, who was an
apprentice with the New Zealand
team at the world championships
last month in South Korea,
was able to defeat the more
experienced Matsunami, who
competed for New Zealand at the
global event.
It was one of a number of
successes for the Canterbury
club with Matsunami and Chris
McGill combining to win the
kata event together.
Parklands’ Tania Butterfield

women’s competition, while
Cantabrians filled the podium
in the open kyu event with Ryan

team. The Canterbury B team of

Hanleys Essential Dog Roll
Essentials dog rolls have now rebranded to Hanleys Essential
Dog Roll under owner Philippa Hanleys animal nutrition banner.
Philippa has been making natural horse and dog food for over
10 years and lives locally in Geraldine.
Hanleys Essential Dog Roll are not just amazing meat. Philippas
own amino acids blend from Nz whey protein concentrate
are added along with organic minerals, rice and hemp seed oil
from Canterbury. Hemp seed oil has been dubbed ‘nature’s
most perfectly balanced oil’, due to its 3:1 ratio of Omega 6
to Omega 3, deemed an essential requirement for long-term
healthy nutrition. Brown rice flour and other organic minerals
are also added, making the rolls full of clean protein and good
fats. Hanleys contains 18% protein so next time you are buying
your dog roll compare this figure. More protein means you
need to feed less, so you are receiving far better value for
money. Feed less and save more.
It is not just about what is in the rolls. What is missing is also
crucial. No preservatives or chemicals are added. Many pet
owners probably do not realise how hard preservatives are
on a dog’s kidneys and how much damage they may cause. The
business mottos are: ‘enhance all health’ and ‘health before
money’.
Feed just a portion of normal supermarket rolls due to the
superfood ingredients.

Delta rhythmic
gymnast takes
first national title
• By Jacob Page
BISHOPDALE’S Delta
Rhythmic Gymnastics Club
member Sarah Quinn became a
national champion for the first
time after a stellar competition
at Tauranga.
The 16-year-old, who goes to
Villa Maria College and lives
in West Melton, became the
overall national champion at
level nine.
Sarah won the ribbon and
ball competitions and was third
in the clubs. Her consistency
across all disciplines earned her
the national title.
“It was an amazing feeling,
something I wasn’t expecting.”
Sarah started gymnastics nine
years ago just to try it out and
has not looked back.
She trained for more than
15 hours a week in the lead-up
to the competition and was
delighted with the overall result.
Sarah said she enjoys using
the clubs. “I always enjoyed
learning new routines with
them and it was something I
learnt quickly,” she said.
She will now turn her
attention to winning a level 10
title next year at the nationals
to add another golden moment
to her rhythmic gymnastics
CV.

REAL ESTATE
You asked for it ... we found it!
103 Penruddock Rise, Westmorland
Auction: Thursday, 8 November 2018 - unless sold prior
4 bedrooms | 2 bathrooms | 2 toilets | 2 living rooms | 2 car-garage | 2 off-street parks | Listing Number BE193132
On a flat 938 sq m section, with
magnificent views encompassing rolling
hills, city lights and the Southern alps,
and all on a single level with easy drive-on
access; this Westmorland property has a list
of requirements we often see and can seldom
fulfill, with demand always outstripping
supply. The beautifully finished executive
home is spacious and well laid out with
multiple choices of living and entertaining
zones, indoors and out. With solar panels
installed to maximize the home’s fantastic
exposure to all day sun, it’s no wonder our
vendors are only reluctantly relinquishing
their much loved home to relocate north.
A centerpiece kitchen sits at the heart of
the home, with sleek stainless steel benches,
custom built charcoal joinery and 900 wide
free standing range. From here you can
preside over two separate living areas, the
dining room and three different outdoor
decks, not to mention panoramic views.
The design is perfect for family living
and entertaining with the areas able to be
separated off when required for a more
intimate feel. Each of the outdoor spaces
has a different aspect, making it easy to find
a sheltered spot in the sun at any time.
There are four bedrooms, the master
being particularly spacious, with walkin
robe and ensuite. Both bathrooms are
elegantly finished with extensive tiling
and modern wall hung vanities. There is a
separate laundry and a double garage with
internal access. Raised vege planters are
currently flourishing with home grown
produce, testament to the unique hillside
micro climate and just one more reason to
come for the views and stay for the lifestyle.
Open Home Saturday 3rd and Sunday
4th November 4:00pm - 4.30pm.

WORKSAFE NEW Zealand
has b en a proached in a bid to
fina ly repair the potholes in New
Brighton’s Hawke St car park.
Coastal-Burw od Ward city
counci lor David East wants
WorkSafe to pre sure the car
park’s private owners into
repairing the potholes which are
a “trip and vehicle” hazard.
WorkSafe chief inspector
a se sment southern Da ren
Handforth said it may be able to
take action under the Health and
Safety at Work Act 2015, “as a
person conducting a busine s or
undertaking.”
Mr Handforth said WorkSafe
is aware of the concerns raised by
Cr East abou the car park.
“WorkSafe has completed
an a se sment visi to the site
and is engaging with the owner
to advise them that it is their
responsibility to manage their
risks a propriately.”
Different parts of the car park
are owned by various people
and the Coastal-Burw od
Community Board recently
wrote to them about its concerns
around health and safety.
Cr East said the bi gest i sue
in the past has b en ge ting in
touch with the landlords and
owners and ge ting them to
agr e to anything. “The board
a preciates that multi-ownership
of the parking space may present
a difficulty in co-ordinating
repair/resurfacing but felt obliged
to pa s these concerns onto you,”
said the le ter.
One reply has b en received so
far from an owner who is wi ling
to discu s the i sue. However, a l
the owners would have to agr e
to undertake work.
Cr East said there had b en
a “number of incidences” in
the car park of people injuring
themselves which had gone
unreported.
“I’ve always though that it
has b en quite amazing that we
haven’t had any serious a cidents
or senior citizens perhaps
tri ping in those potholes and
doing themselve some damage.”
He is confiden the new
a proach wi l bring results.
“I think the WorkSafe
involvement may prove to be the
lever that we are l oking for.”

THE PAPANUI-I nes
Community Board has taken the
rare step of starting a petition
to figh the city council over
funding.
Signatures are being co lected
in a bid to get funding for a community
facility in Shirley.
It comes after the city council
removed funding for the centre
pla ned for Shirley Rd, near the
intersection with Hi ls Rd. This
was the site of the former community
centre, which was badly
damaged in the February 2,
20 1, earthquake.
The removal o funding
prompted community board
chairwoman Ali Jones to threaten
to stan down, citing it as her “die
in the ditch” project.
Ms Jone said the board’s role
is to represen the community,
and by gathering signatures from
residents, it was fulfi ling that
role.
“One of the roles of a community
board is to represent and act
as advocate for the interests of its
community and this is what we
are doing. The LTP and a nual
plans are a l about lo bying the
council.”

Cave Rock
Apartments’
owners
expect EQC
sign-off
this week
• By Sarla Donovan
THE OWNERS of Sumner’s Cave
Rock Apartments ar expecting the
Earthquake Commi sion to sign-off
on a se tlement agr emen this w ek.
Body corporate chairman Mike
White said the group had gone
into mediation with IAG and EQC
on February 20, and signed off
on a deal with IAG on February
2 – coincidenta ly seven years
to the day after the February 2,
20 1, earthquake. However, they
are waiting for EQC to sign the
agr ement.
“Given that EQC actua ly drafted
the agr ement, there’ l be no
problem with them doing that.”
The apartments suffere damage
in the February and June, 20 1,
earthquakes and were demolished in
late 2012. In 2016, IAG’s offer of the
difference betw en indemnity value,
$10 mi lion, and the sum insured,
$16 mi lion, was rejected by the body
corporate.
The mediation agr ement
prevented Mr White from disclosing
the se tlement amount, but he said it
involved the two parties paying “a bit
more money than they’d wanted to
earlier.”

A WOOLSTON butcher proved
to be a cut above the rest in an
international competition.
New World Fe ry Rd butcher
Jeremy Garth and his team, the
Pure South Sharp Blacks, recently
came second a the World
Butchers’ Cha lenge in Northern
Ireland.
It was the firs time Mr Garth
had competed in the cha lenge
and he was “rea ly proud” of
how the team performed.
“We produced some top quality
products and came away
with a g od result so we’re very
ha py,” he said.
The preparation for this year’s
World Butchers’ Cha lenge was
intense as the team members
met in Auckland every two
months for lengthy w ekend
practices.
Mr Garth, who has b en a
butcher for 14 years, said the
competition brought back his
pa sion for the job.
“Doing a l thi stuff and
m eting new people, s eing new
ideas, it just brings that flair
back for you,” he said.
Mr Garth hopes t own a
butcher shop of his own someday
but says for now he wi l focus
on ge ting mor experience
and on the 2020 cha lenge.
“In two years’ time, we’ l be
going back to try and win the
title,” he said.

A CRACKDOWN on mobile
traders acro s the districts could
be l oming.
However, the public has li tle
interest in having input into the
i sue.
Only eight submi sions were
received for a potential bylaw
aimed at regulating commercial
activities in public places.
The district council wi l be
holding a hearing for the Public
Places Bylaw and Policy on Commercial
Activities and Events in
Public Places.
A hearing i scheduled to be
held on Thursday.
The bylaw comes as an increasing
number of mobile traders
are s eking t operate in Selwyn,
especia ly during the summer
months.
In the past year, the district
council has received five inquiries
about se ting up a mobile busine s
on private or public land.
A report said there are two
str et operators in Darfield, a
coff e cart is parked beside the
railway in Ro leston, and a pi za
cart visits Lincoln w ekly betw en

Pupils learn about role of war horses
GR ENDALE SCHOOL pupils
have taken a step back in time,
s eing first hand what men and
horses l oked like during war.
The New Zealand Mounted
Rifles Charitable Trust president
Mark A pleton and member
Mike Donaldson t ok their
horses to the sch ol on Monday,
in a bid to educate pupils on the
sacrifice their ancestors made in
World War 1 and World War 2.
Mr A pleton and Mr Donaldson
a rived a the sch ol dre sed
in World War 1 uniforms while
their horses Tommy and Kruze
wore 1 0-year-old sa dles donated
to the trust.
The presentation is a prelude
to the Gr endale Recreation Reserve
Management Commi t e’s
upcoming Anzac Day service.
As a tribute to those who
served, members of the trust wi l
ride horseback to the service.
Mr A pleton said it was
important children were
educated on what soldiers
wen through during World
War 1 and World War 2.
But he said the presentation
didn’t go into t o much detail
and was more of a “show and
te l” to make them aware of what
the soldiers l oked like.
Children were shown the type
of kits horses were required to
wear in the war.

AN U PER Ri carton butcher
has proven himself to be a cut
above his Au sie rivals at an
international competition.
Elite Meats owner Corey
Winder was named in the a l
star team a the World Butchers’
Cha lenge in Northern Ireland.
Mr Winder and his team, the
Pure South Sharp Blacks, which
includes W olston butcher
Jeremy Garth, finished second
in the competition.
He said the cha lenge started
as a “transtasman test match”
seven years ago.
The preparation for this
year’s World Butchers’ Challenge
was intense as the team
members met in Auckland
every two months for lengthy
w ekend practices. Mr Winder
said coming second against 1
other countries was a “fantastic”
result.
“To get second behind Ireland
was a huge achievement and to
be ahead of Australia is an
even bigger thing for us,” he
said.
But Mr Winder admires the
Australian team.
“Those guys over there
[Australia] are on top of their
game, they do a g od job,” he
said.
“And it just showcases that
New Zealand has got some
of the best butchers in the
world,” he said.
Mr Winder has b en a butcher
since the age of 19.

Mayor Lia ne Dalziel told the

from the city council to make a

Board chairman Mike Mora
told Western News the submi sion
would likely o pose Fulton Hogan’s
plan.
“You can just about guarant e
it . because we [the community

areas,” he said.
Mr Mora said he wasn’t sure if
the city council would endorse the
board’ submi sion.
“I’d like to think so because the
city council has had their eyes

Mr Mora said the community
