Agonising<br />
time for fire<br />
devastated<br />
couple<br />
• By Anan Zaki<br />
A RETIRED couple are reeling<br />
after a devastating fire destroyed<br />
their Halswell home on Labour<br />
Day.<br />
Derek Petch, 75, and his partner<br />
Marie Musson, 84, had lived<br />
together at the Alvaston Dr house<br />
for 12 years. The fire started at<br />
about 4.15pm in the rear unit of<br />
the two-unit section.<br />
Ms Musson was taken to hospital<br />
on the day for precautionary<br />
checks. Speaking the day after the<br />
fire, she could not hold back the<br />
tears.<br />
“It’s just hit me, that’s our home<br />
gone,” Ms Musson said.<br />

Campaign<br />
to clean<br />
up Kyle<br />
Park gets<br />
results<br />
• By Anan Zaki<br />
HORNBY’S KYLE Park is finally<br />
getting the clean up locals have<br />
been campaigning for.<br />
<strong>Western</strong> <strong>News</strong> reported on the<br />
overgrown weeds at the park in<br />
September following complaints<br />
from the Christchurch City BMX<br />
Club.<br />
The city council announced last<br />
week it has begun removing the<br />
weeds at the park.<br />
The club’s track manager<br />
Michael Stronach previously<br />
said the weeds at the park were<br />
“disgraceful”, and that it had been<br />
neglected since asbestos fencing<br />
was put up in 2015.<br />
City councillor Vicki Buck<br />
said a maintenance programme<br />
started on Thursday.<br />
The maintenance plan consists<br />
of mowing, fence-line spraying<br />
and weed control. The park will<br />
be mowed twice a month.<br />
Mr Stronach was delighted that<br />
the city council had listened to the<br />
BMX club and Hornby residents.<br />
“It’s always good when you get<br />
a result. It’s good for the community<br />
not just the BMX club,”<br />
he said.<br />

THAT’S A well deserved honour for Jeff<br />
Whittaker on page 16 today.<br />
Jeff has been made a life member of the<br />
Canterbury Rugby League for the fantastic<br />
work he has put in for the code over the<br />
decades, both as a player and later a behind the scenes man.<br />
He was part of the great Halswell side of the mid-80s, coached<br />
by the late ‘Herman’ Williams, memorable for two great grandfinals<br />
when the mercurial Phil Bancroft kicked field goals to<br />
snatch victories over arch rivals Hornby in 1985 and 87.<br />
I can still see one of those goals taken from just over 50m, the<br />
ball wobbling its way towards the goalposts, Bancroft raised<br />
arm, fist clenched in a victory salute.<br />
Those were the days.<br />

Slower speeds likely for Templeton<br />
• By Anan Zaki<br />
TEMPLETON residents are a<br />
step closer to getting their wish<br />
of slower speeds in the area.<br />
City council staff have recommended<br />
that 100 km/h roads in<br />
Templeton should be reduced to<br />
80 km/h.<br />
The<br />
Halswell-<br />
Hornby-Riccarton<br />
Community<br />
Board<br />
is set to vote<br />
on the staff<br />
Garry Kilday<br />
recommendation<br />
today.<br />
The affected<br />
roads are – Dawsons, Hasketts,<br />
Jones, Kirk, Leggett, Maddisons,<br />
Newtons and Waterloo Rds.<br />
<strong>Western</strong> <strong>News</strong> reported last<br />
year that Templeton residents<br />
believed the existing 100km/h<br />
speed limits are an “accident<br />
waiting to happen.”<br />
Templeton Residents’ Association<br />
chairman Garry Kilday<br />
welcomed the new recommendation.<br />
“For example on Kirk Rd,<br />
after coming into the 50 km/h<br />
area from the 100km/h area,<br />
people still do 100km/h,” Mr<br />
Kilday said.<br />
Reducing Kirk Rd to 80km/h<br />
would discourage drivers from<br />
speeding through a 50km/h<br />
area, he said.<br />
Some roads are too narrow<br />
for the 100km/h speed limit, Mr<br />
Kilday said.<br />
“Maddisons Rd is not a true<br />
road. It’s a dirt road that’s been<br />
tar sealed.”<br />
A city council report said because<br />
of the speed limit reductions<br />
by Selwyn District Council<br />
earlier this year, the area had a<br />
variation of speed limits, which<br />
may be confusing to motorists.<br />
Some rural roads such as<br />
Newtons Rd, was too narrow,<br />
had no hard shoulders and<br />
no road markings, a 100km/h<br />
speed limit, the report said.<br />
“These speed limit changes are<br />
proposed primarily for safety<br />
and consistency,” the report<br />
stated.<br />
Automobile Association, NZ<br />
Transport Agency, police and<br />
the Selwyn District Council<br />
supported the proposed speed<br />
limit changes.<br />
Installing the new speed<br />
signs across Templeton will<br />
cost $<strong>30</strong>,000, and the funding is<br />
sourced from the city council’s<br />
traffic operations signs and road<br />
marking budget.<br />
Should the changes be approved<br />
by the community<br />
board, it will take about six<br />
weeks to complete.<br />
SLOW: Speed limits of<br />
100km/h on some Templeton<br />
roads could be reduced to<br />
80km/h.<br />
CRASH DATA:<br />
Dawsons Rd: One serious<br />
and three minor/non-injury<br />

ROAD CHANGES LIKELY<br />
The intersection of Annex and<br />
Blenheim Rds in Middleton<br />
may soon have a no U-turn<br />
restriction. A city council staff<br />
recommendation says that there<br />
have been concerns raised by the<br />
public about the safety at the intersection.<br />
A city council report<br />
said when motorists travelling<br />
on Blenheim Rd towards Annex<br />
Rd perform a U-turn, it causes<br />
confusion for left-turning motorists<br />
from Annex Rd. Main South<br />
Rd could also get two no-right<br />
turn and U-turn restrictions.<br />
City council staff recommended<br />
that the restrictions be placed<br />
the road’s two intersections with<br />
Harvard Ave and Green Lane.<br />
The decisions will be voted on by<br />
the Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton<br />
Community Board today.<br />

GUTTED:<br />
A fire<br />
destroyed<br />
two houses<br />
on Alvaston<br />
Drive,<br />
Halswell, on<br />
Labour Day.<br />
Couple reeling after<br />
Halswell house fire<br />
•From page 1<br />
The couple said they received<br />
countless messages of support<br />
and were staying at a relative’s<br />
home.<br />
They only had the clothes on<br />
their backs and a handful of<br />
items firefighters could salvage.<br />
“The firemen were bringing<br />
pictures off the walls and<br />
jewellery all out for us,” Mr Petch<br />
said.<br />
Ms Musson often sat by the<br />
window during the day and saw<br />
many people walk past her house.<br />
“People used to stop everyday<br />
and stop and wave to me. I just<br />
wish people could know that I’m<br />
alright,” Ms Musson said.<br />
Mr Petch said the fire spread in<br />
a matter of minutes after a panel<br />
heater that was against a couch<br />
was accidentally turned on by a<br />
child. The rear unit was occupied<br />
by a young family of five.<br />
When the fire started, Mr<br />
Petch went to the rear unit to<br />
help evacuate a nine-month-old<br />
baby.<br />
At the time, only the couch was<br />
on fire.<br />
“I went to get a hose, and when<br />
I returned, in a minute, it [the<br />
fire] had spread from the couch<br />
to the whole [living] room,” Mr<br />
Petch said.<br />
“In four minutes the whole<br />
place was engulfed,” he said.<br />
The fire spread from the rear<br />
unit into the roof of the front.<br />
The ceiling fell down and most of<br />
their furniture was damaged by<br />
water from the fire hoses.<br />
No one was injured in the fire.<br />
Kyle Park to be cleaned up<br />
•From page 1<br />
However, Mr Stronach was<br />
disappointed he only got the<br />
result after going public.<br />
“It’s been [overgrown] for two<br />
years now so they [city council]<br />
obviously weren’t listening to<br />
people before,” he said. “Maybe<br />
the publicity around the<br />
Denton Park community centre<br />
might have helped. It’s put the<br />
whole area in<br />
the limelight,”<br />
Mr Stronach<br />
said.<br />
But people<br />
shouldn’t have<br />
to go public<br />
to keep basic<br />
Marc Duff<br />
maintenance,<br />
he said. “This<br />
is part of what we pay our rates<br />
for, isn’t it?”<br />
Prior to the maintenance<br />
programme, the BMX club had<br />
to remove the weed to improve<br />
the appearance of the park, Mr<br />
Stronach said.<br />
Greater Hornby Residents’<br />
Association chairman Marc<br />
Duff welcomed the Kyle Park<br />
maintenance programme. “It’s<br />
outstanding news. There has<br />
been concerns about Kyle Park<br />
for quite a while,” he said. “And<br />
it’s good for BMX Club because<br />
they get a lot of visitors from<br />
around the South Island,” Mr<br />
Duff said.<br />

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

Riccarton High celebrates 60 years<br />
• By Anan Zaki<br />
RICCARTON HIGH School is<br />
turning 60 tomorrow.<br />
The co-ed school opened on<br />
<strong>October</strong> 31, 1958, with a roll of<br />
142 students.<br />
For the celebration, the school<br />
organised tours for past alumni<br />
on Saturday and a get-together at<br />
Riccarton Racecourse.<br />
Principal Neil Haywood said<br />
there had been a lot of interest in<br />
the celebrations with 260 people<br />
registered for the tour and 2<strong>30</strong><br />
people registered for the supper.<br />
Mr Haywood said celebrating<br />
the school’s birthday is a time to<br />
not only reflect but look to the<br />
future.<br />
“In terms of our school, the<br />
words for the old boys and old<br />
girls of the school is the school is<br />
in good heart and there are some<br />
exciting developments coming to<br />
the school,” he said.<br />
Though no plans have been<br />
confirmed, the school is planning<br />
to replace its older buildings<br />
starting from 2020.<br />
But the school ruled out open<br />
plan classrooms.<br />
The values of the school have<br />
also not been forgotten, Mr Haywood<br />
said.<br />
“What we call the Riccarton<br />
way is still very strong in the<br />
TEAM: Riccarton High School head boy Josh Paul, 17, principal Neil Haywood, head of physical<br />
education Chris Nielson and head girl Apoorva Patelkhana, 17.<br />
value-based system that underpins<br />
everything we do.”<br />
The school’s values are respect,<br />
commitment, excellence and<br />
honesty, he said.<br />
“It’s something we believe<br />
in, something quite genuine<br />
amongst the school community,”<br />
Mr Haywood said.<br />
A strong point for the school<br />
throughout its history has been<br />
it’s multiculturalism, he said.<br />
“To be multicultural is a real<br />
asset to us . . . it brings with it<br />
some challenges, increasing<br />
number of students who need<br />
intensive English support,” Mr<br />
Haywood said.<br />
“But having such a dynamic,<br />
diverse community with more<br />
than 50 ethnicities,” he said.<br />

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

going to be interesting in itself.<br />
“But the really crucial part of<br />
this is going to start informing<br />
sophisticated computer<br />
modelling of population<br />
movements when they evacuate,”<br />
he said.<br />
The models will simulate<br />
people evacuating after a<br />
tsunami warning.<br />
The project involves a<br />
partnership with Civil Defence<br />
Emergency Management, the<br />
city council and Environment<br />
Canterbury. It is planned the<br />
information formed from the<br />
research will be presented in a<br />
series of workshops for affected<br />
coastal communities next year.<br />
It comes after confusion<br />
following the quake, in which<br />
hundreds were stuck in traffic for<br />
more than an hour trying to get<br />
to higher ground.<br />
In the new survey, residents<br />
will be asked how they knew<br />
there was a potential tsunami<br />
hazard, what they did when the<br />
official warning went out, what<br />
their knowledge of tsunami<br />
hazards is, and how it influenced<br />
their behaviour.<br />
It will focus on residents<br />
living in coastal areas in eastern<br />
areas of the city, including New<br />
Brighton and Southshore as well<br />
as the Sumner, Redcliffs and the<br />
wider Banks Peninsula area.<br />
The survey also asks people to<br />
draw the route they drove if they<br />
evacuated.<br />
“We want to map what they<br />
did and try understand how<br />
their prior state of knowledge<br />
influenced that behaviour,” Dr<br />
Hughes said.<br />
He said the evacuation routes<br />
collected from the survey will<br />
go towards developing the<br />
computer model, which will<br />
help Civil Defence and other<br />
agencies help with evacuation<br />
planning.<br />
Anzac Fire Station senior<br />
station officer Shane O’Brien,<br />
who was on duty the night<br />
of the earthquake, said every<br />
fire station in the city has an<br />
emergency plan but the more<br />
information it receives the<br />
better.<br />
Dr Hughes said the aim is for<br />
evacuation paths and evacuation<br />
zones to be further informed<br />
by local knowledge when the<br />
models are developed.<br />
The survey will take place over<br />
the next several months and a<br />
preliminary report will<br />
be completed at the end of the<br />
year.<br />

Eco-Warriors in national final<br />
• By Anan Zaki<br />
AN OAKLANDS School<br />
team has made it to the final<br />
of a national problem solving<br />
competition.<br />
The team, named Eco-<br />
Warriors, entered the Future<br />
Problem Solving New Zealand<br />
competition in March.<br />
They had to<br />
solve a community<br />
problem<br />
and the<br />
Eco-Warriors<br />
chose to focus<br />
on waste reduction<br />
in the<br />
Caroline<br />
Martin<br />
community.<br />
The team<br />
is made up of<br />
nine pupils aged between nine<br />
and 11 years-old.<br />
Eco-Warriors coach and Oaklands<br />
School deputy principal<br />
Caroline Martin said the idea<br />
was to encourage pupils to take<br />
action in the community.<br />
“We looked at newspaper articles,<br />
including the <strong>Western</strong> <strong>News</strong><br />
and we just looked at issues in<br />
the community. It was around<br />
that time that supermarkets<br />
were saying they were going to<br />
do away with plastic bags,” Mrs<br />
Martin said.<br />
The team then researched on<br />
FINALISTS: The Eco-Warriors team (from left), Ben Hanson ,10 ,Thomas White, 10, Isis<br />
McKenzie, 9, Beatrice Christie, 10, Keisha Byrne, 10, Max McAlister , 9, Madison McKenzie, 9,<br />
Aden Veint, 11 and Charlie Barnes, 10.<br />
plastic, what damage it causes to<br />
oceans and landfills.<br />
“The kids decided they would<br />
try to get rid of plastic rubbish<br />
from our school and our community,”<br />
Mrs Martin said.<br />
Regardless of the result, the<br />
team were proud to have made a<br />
difference, she said.<br />
“We cleaned Westlake Park<br />
and are we’re now discussing<br />
putting signs up on the park<br />
explaining the birds in the area,”<br />
Mrs Martin said.<br />
The team also held rubbish<br />
free lunchtimes, sold reusable<br />
bags and held presentations to<br />
educate the community.<br />
The final will be held from<br />
Friday to Sunday in Auckland.<br />
To enter the final the Eco-<br />
Warriors had to put in a submission<br />
highlighting why they<br />
should be in the final.<br />
In the final, the team have to<br />
create a display board, a scrapbook<br />
and an oral presentation<br />
about their projects.<br />
If the team win the<br />
competition they will qualify<br />
to compete in the international<br />
final in Massachusetts, United<br />
States.<br />

The Christchurch Tamil School<br />
will be moving its school<br />
operation from the Waimairi<br />
Community Centre to Riccarton<br />
Baptist Church. The school will<br />
be using rooms that had been<br />
previously used by Pasifika<br />

The Riccarton Rd pavement<br />
works to Harakeke St are<br />

rail crossing were commissioned<br />
on <strong>October</strong> 24. This was a joint<br />
commissioning between the city<br />
council and KiwiRail and the<br />
pedestrian and cycle crossing is<br />
now operational. The temporary<br />
pedestrian crossing outside<br />
Wilson’s Sports Bar has been<br />

HAVE YOUR SAY<br />
Lincoln Road and Moorhouse Avenue<br />
bus priority improvements<br />
We are planning to install peak hour bus lanes on Lincoln Road and Moorhouse Avenue<br />

into that area over the next <strong>30</strong> years. The bus priority measures we are proposing<br />
will help to cater to this growth. We’d like to hear your views.<br />

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

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

Ratepayers’ front up for board<br />
Fire rages, homes at risk<br />
meeting food<br />
WHAT HAS BEEN SPENT<br />
ON FOOD:<br />
• By Anan Zaki<br />
COMMUNITY board members<br />
have chomped through just<br />
over $49,000 of biscuits, candy<br />
and savouries since they were<br />
elected.<br />
The biggest spender was<br />
Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton<br />
Community Board.<br />
The nine members have<br />
eaten food to the value of<br />
$10,000.<br />
That is the catering bill<br />
ratepayers have funded for<br />
community board meetings since<br />
the election in 2016.<br />
Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton<br />
Community Board chairman<br />
Mike Mora defended the<br />
expenses.<br />
He said<br />
catering at<br />
meetings is a<br />
“necessity.”<br />
Community<br />
boards meet<br />
every two to<br />
three weeks,<br />
Mike Mora<br />
but take a<br />
recess from<br />
January to December.<br />
“I don’t think it’s right for<br />
people sitting for two or three<br />
hours with hunger pains,” Mr<br />
Mora said.<br />
Mr Mora said the food was<br />
also available to city council staff<br />
members and members of the<br />
public who attended meetings.<br />
“Personally, I think it’s for<br />
the wider benefit of everybody<br />
who attends the meeting to<br />
be able to have a sandwich, a<br />
savoury or a bit of fruit,” Mr<br />
Mora said.<br />
Board deputy chairwoman<br />
Helen<br />
Broughton<br />
was “shocked”<br />
to learn her<br />
board was the<br />
top spender.<br />
She said the<br />
Helen<br />
Broughton<br />
board will<br />
discuss the<br />
food expenses<br />
in two weeks.<br />
“We’re going to have to have<br />
a serious discussion – does it<br />
continue at all or does it continue<br />
at a lesser level?” Ms Broughton<br />
said. “It’s far too much to be<br />
spending,” she said.<br />
Ms Broughton also said the<br />
board never made it clear to<br />
members of the public attending<br />
meetings they could share in<br />
the food. Fendalton-Waimairi-<br />
Harewood<br />
Community<br />
Board spent<br />
the least on<br />
catering.<br />
The board<br />
only caters<br />
for meetings<br />
Sam<br />
MacDonald<br />
which have a<br />
“substantial”<br />
agenda or if<br />
it is combined with other<br />
boards.<br />
Chairman Sam MacDonald<br />
said the board decided early into<br />
its current term that catering<br />
meetings was not a good use of<br />
ratepayers’ money.<br />
“I think the reality is that in<br />
any workplace, [catering is] not<br />
something that’s readily available<br />
or readily offered.”<br />
Mr MacDonald said the food<br />
that’s usually provided are<br />
biscuits and lollies.<br />
“We were just cognisant of<br />
the fact that in the end, we<br />
represent the community and<br />
are outcomes focused<br />
and we need to be mindful<br />
with ratepayers’ funds,” Mr<br />
MacDonald said.<br />
A variety of caterers are used<br />
by the community boards, and<br />
sometimes the food is purchased<br />
from supermarkets, city council<br />
head of community support,<br />
governance and partnership John<br />
Filsell said.<br />

Southern ChiropraCtiC<br />
3 kennedys bush rd, halswell (upstairs)<br />
Chiropractic treatment promotes<br />
wellness and happiness<br />
Southern Chiropractic specialist André<br />
Grob loves nothing more than to help<br />
people.<br />
With 17 years of experience treating<br />
people with a range of spinal problems,<br />
he has a deep understanding of the<br />
value and benefits that his chiropractic<br />
practice can offer clients experiencing<br />
pain.<br />
A high percentage of the patients<br />
André treats suffer from lower back<br />
and neck pain, followed closely by mid<br />
back pain. He says some pain such<br />
as headaches or shoulder pain often<br />
comes from other places, and it’s<br />
about finding and treating the source.<br />
André believes that not only does<br />
chiropractic treatment help relieve pain<br />
but when applied regularly it also helps<br />
promote an overall feeling of wellness<br />
and happiness.<br />
“When clients first come to the clinic,”<br />
says André, “the first thing I do is to<br />
take the time to find out what the<br />
problem is. The aim is to treat the pain<br />
and make them comfortable.” Once<br />
the patient is better, he says it’s then<br />
up to the patient to decide if they want<br />
to come back for further or regular<br />
chiropractic treatment. This could<br />
be weekly, monthly or bi-annually<br />
depending on what they want.<br />
André says that in the USA chiropractic<br />
treatment is listed third among the<br />
most beneficial natural therapies<br />
available. Used as an ongoing<br />
preventative treatment, it offers a<br />
holistic approach to overall wellbeing.<br />
Keeping up with the latest trends and<br />
developments in his field is vital to<br />
André; however, he says it’s about<br />
what works best for his clients. He<br />
offers not only hands-on manipulation<br />
of the spine but also soft tissue<br />
massage, which some patients prefer.<br />
He also utilises the modality of laser<br />
treatment to assist the traditional<br />
approach and an activator instrument,<br />
which can be used more precisely<br />
instead of hands.<br />
Over the years André has successfully<br />
treated an extensive client base<br />
with ages ranging from school-age<br />
children through to 90+ year-olds. He<br />
enjoys the down-to-earth professional<br />
relationships he has with each patient<br />
and says delivering the chiropractic<br />
service and getting people better is<br />
what it’s all about.<br />
Also, if he can’t help, he will refer his<br />
patients to a professional who can.<br />
If you have back pain and are looking for a committed, passionate, and caring chiropractic practitioner, call André today on 03 322 1432. Based in halswell at 3 Kennedys Bush Road,<br />
Southern Chiropractic also runs a clinic every Tuesday in Ashburton.<br />

Horrack on Parker’s under-card<br />
Strikeforce boxer training<br />
for bout on December 15<br />
• By Jacob Page<br />
HALWELL’S Strikeforce boxer<br />
Bjorn Horrack will trade a roof<br />
for the ring to be on the undercard<br />
for Joseph Parker’s bout<br />
against United States-Mexican<br />
Alexander Flores at Horncastle<br />
Arena.<br />
The 29-year-old is a roofer<br />
by trade but has competed in<br />
boxing, kickboxing and mixed<br />
martial arts since he was 21.<br />
He will take on fellow<br />
Cantabrian Quintin Poole on<br />
December 15 at the Round 12<br />
Boxing and Fitness Centre in the<br />
central city.<br />
Horrack will compete in a<br />
corporate bout consisting of<br />
three 2min rounds.<br />
“The talk is we’ll be opening<br />
the night, which is a bit of fun,”<br />
he said. “I’ll have a few mates<br />
going so it’ll be great to be out<br />
there.”<br />
Cantabrians Bowyn Morgan<br />
(18-1) – a two-weight national<br />
champion and IBO Asia Pacific<br />
welterweight champion –<br />
and Nort Beauchamp (17-2),<br />
who is the IBO Oceania super<br />
featherweight champion, will<br />
also be on the card.<br />
The former Cashmere High<br />
School student practiced jiu jitsu<br />
in his early 20s at the Strikeforce<br />
Gym before taking an MMA<br />
bout on a week’s notice for his<br />
first taste of competitive combat.<br />
“I’d always loved mixed<br />
martial arts and have combined<br />
that with kickboxing and boxing<br />
over the years,”<br />
Horrack last competed on<br />
the Pacific Warrior II card<br />
at the Hagley Events Centre<br />
last month. But he said the<br />
upcoming bout would be the<br />
biggest of his life.<br />
“Obviously there will be a few<br />
more people having a look and<br />
tuning in to see how we go,” he<br />
said.<br />
Horrack, who weighs in at<br />
100kg, said he expected to give<br />
up at least <strong>30</strong>kg to Poole.<br />
He said he had a few options<br />
on how to combat his opponent’s<br />
size and one was to simply try to<br />
outlast him.<br />
“He’ll try to use his size to lean<br />
on me and make things difficult,<br />
but the longer it goes, it may<br />
work in my favour.”<br />
Coach Steve Brown said<br />
Horrack had a big heart and<br />
they would be working on not<br />
only his physical preparation but<br />
also a mental approach to deal<br />
with boxing at a big event.<br />

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

REAL ESTATE<br />
You asked for it ... we found it!<br />
103 Penruddock Rise, Westmorland<br />
Auction: Thursday, 8 November <strong>2018</strong> - unless sold prior<br />
4 bedrooms | 2 bathrooms | 2 toilets | 2 living rooms | 2 car-garage | 2 off-street parks | Listing Number BE193132<br />
On a flat 938 sq m section, with<br />
magnificent views encompassing rolling<br />
hills, city lights and the Southern alps,<br />
and all on a single level with easy drive-on<br />
access; this Westmorland property has a list<br />
of requirements we often see and can seldom<br />
fulfill, with demand always outstripping<br />
supply. The beautifully finished executive<br />
home is spacious and well laid out with<br />
multiple choices of living and entertaining<br />
zones, indoors and out. With solar panels<br />
installed to maximize the home’s fantastic<br />
exposure to all day sun, it’s no wonder our<br />
vendors are only reluctantly relinquishing<br />
their much loved home to relocate north.<br />
A centerpiece kitchen sits at the heart of<br />
the home, with sleek stainless steel benches,<br />
custom built charcoal joinery and 900 wide<br />
free standing range. From here you can<br />
preside over two separate living areas, the<br />
dining room and three different outdoor<br />
decks, not to mention panoramic views.<br />
The design is perfect for family living<br />
and entertaining with the areas able to be<br />
separated off when required for a more<br />
intimate feel. Each of the outdoor spaces<br />
has a different aspect, making it easy to find<br />
a sheltered spot in the sun at any time.<br />
There are four bedrooms, the master<br />
being particularly spacious, with walkin<br />
robe and ensuite. Both bathrooms are<br />
elegantly finished with extensive tiling<br />
and modern wall hung vanities. There is a<br />
separate laundry and a double garage with<br />
internal access. Raised vege planters are<br />
currently flourishing with home grown<br />
produce, testament to the unique hillside<br />
micro climate and just one more reason to<br />
come for the views and stay for the lifestyle.<br />
Open Home Saturday 3rd and Sunday<br />
4th November 4:00pm - 4.<strong>30</strong>pm.<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 />

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 />
council.”<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 million, 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 />

However, the public has li tle<br />
interest in having input into the<br />

Only eight submi sions were<br />
received for a potential bylaw<br />
aimed at regulating commercial<br />
activities in public places.<br />
The district council wi l be<br />
holding a hearing for the Public<br />
Places Bylaw and Policy on Commercial<br />
Activities and Events in<br />
Public Places.<br />
A hearing i scheduled to be<br />
held on Thursday.<br />
The bylaw comes as an increasing<br />
number of mobile traders<br />
are s eking t operate in Selwyn,<br />
especia ly during the summer<br />
months.<br />
In the past year, the district<br />
council has received five inquiries<br />
about se ting up a mobile busine s<br />
on private or public land.<br />
A report said there are two<br />

The New Zealand Mounted<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 />

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 />

the soldiers l oked like.<br />
Children were shown the type<br />
of kits horses were required to<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 />

Mayor Lia ne Dalziel told the<br />

from the city council to make a<br />
submi sion if Fulton Hogan a plies<br />

Board chairman Mike Mora<br />
told <strong>Western</strong> <strong>News</strong> 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 quarries<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 />
