KATIE TEMPLE never thought 

her job as a road-patroller would 

lead her to creating inspiring 

artwork. 

The 10-year-old is the youngest 

ever winner of the junior section 

of this year’s SCAPE Public Art 

Re:Activate competition.

UP AND COMING ARTIST: Katie Temple’s artwork can be see in Hagley Park as she is the winner of the junior section of the 

SCAPE public art competition. 

Combining road patrol with a love of art 

Her art piece titled Changing 

Pathways features two signs, 

one with ‘go’ and one with 

‘stop.’ 

The inspiration for the signs 

came from Katie’s role as a roadpatroller 

at Thorrington Primary 

School. 

Both sides of the ‘lollipop’ Katie 

carries as she helps children 

cross the road safely has a different 

message on it. 

“On one side of the road patrol 

sign it says ‘thanks for stopping’ 

and on the other side it says, 

‘have a nice day’. So that’s where 

I got the idea of using signs.” she 

said. 

Katie wanted her signs to relate 

to our everyday choices and 

to highlight that every day, we 

have a choice to do the right or 

wrong thing. 

On the ‘go’ sign, it features 

ideas such as planting trees, 

walking and biking. The ‘stop’ 

sign mentions topics such as 

animal cruelty and wasting 

water.

David East 

apologises 

over 

District Plan 

accusation 

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding 

CITY COUNCILLOR David East 

has apologised for accusing the 

city council staff of tampering 

with the city’s District Plan. 

His actions have been supported 

by Christchurch Coastal 

Residents United group. 

CCRU deputy chairman 

Warwick Schaffer said the issue 

wasn’t so much one of tampering, 

it was that the panel wasn’t alerted 

to the omission. 

“Strictly speaking there was 

no tampering of the plan and so 

he was quite right to apologise 

for that because it is not the case 

but it is extremely unlikely staff 

wouldn’t have noticed it was there 

and they should have said something 

to the panel. 

“My perspective is good on 

him for owning that and it will be 

nice to see council admit 

some similar kind of mistake on 

their side as well,” Mr Schaffer 

said. 

He said it was an extremely 

technical topic and from an 

outsider looking in you would 

naturally jump to the conclusion 

there had been there had been 

tampering. 

“He always sort of said it 

had been alleged,” Mr Schaffer 

said.

THERE’S A lot of pieces of the proverbial 

about as we highlight on page 3. 

I’m referring to the so-and-sos who have 

stolen Jill Walker’s two urns again. 

They were restored by her late husband 

and have great sentimental value. 

They were stolen in June as we have previously reported, and 

found by police and returned to her. 

Now they have been taken from her Woolston property again. 

That’s a very low blow. 

So, if you know where these urns are and would like to make 

Jill’s day, call our reporter Anan Zaki on 021 911 576. 

You can also ring the police on 363 7400, or make an 

anonymous call to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

•From page 1 

Katie’s mother Kimala Temple 

admits Katie has been “quietly 

excited” by all the comments on her 

artwork and how far her message 

has gone. 

“During SCAPE’s grand opening, 

a professor from Massey University 

told Katie that her artwork was 

inspiring and some of the best she 

had seen. She took photos to show 

her students,” she said. 

“Katie was rather thrilled to sit 

and watch last time at the number 

of people taking photos on their 

walks.” 

The budding artist attends weekly 

art classes with her teacher Ira 

Mitchell, who encouraged her to 

enter the competition. 

SCAPE spokeswoman Carolyne 

Grant said Katie is the youngest 

winner they have ever had in the 

competition, which offers the opportunity 

for local and emerging 

artists to have their artwork produced 

on a large scale. 

“Katie is excited to have her 

artwork in Hagley Park, to get 

attention and provoke thoughts on 

all the subjects especially around 

the environment, people and 

animals of the world,” she said. 

Woman hit by golf ball; call for signs 

• By Julia Evans 

THE CITY council is 

investigating ways to stop people 

being hit by golf balls on a 

Ferrymead walking track. 

It comes after a woman was hit 

by wayward ball from the Ferrymead

who wants warning signage

“I have put in a request

News 

• By Matt Salmons 

RICHMOND HILL residents 

say positive steps have been 

made towards resolving safety 

concerns in their area. 

An increase in traffic on 

Richmond Hill Rd due to 

development forced residents 

to raise concerns with the city 

council, calling for more safety 

measures beyond the new 

40km/h speed restriction. 

Last week the city council 

said a sought-after footpath 

could be added during planned 

resurfacing works next year. 

This comes after council staff 

met with residents over the issue 

on October 24. 

Resident Kathy Duncan said 

that was a “step in the right 

direction.” 

“We feel really positive and 

hopeful that the footpath will be 

done next year.” 

The lack of a footpath on 

a 300m section of the road 

between the top corner and 

Cecil Wood Way forced 

pedestrians and cyclists to 

share the narrow road with 

trucks and cars. 

City council transport planning 

and delivery manager 

Lynette Ellis said that section of 

Richmond Hill Rd was due for 

resurfacing in the next financial 

year. 

“Staff have said it would be 

best to treat this work as one project 

and replace the broken kerb 

and channel . . . at the same time 

as forming the missing footpath 

section.” 

Ms Ellis said there was no 

budget for a footpath so the best 

option was for staff to apply for 

funding next year. 

“Staff would need to review 

the plans and associated costs 

and an application for additional

capital funds would need to be 

considered as part of the Annual 

Plan review for the 2019/20 

financial year.” 

Linwood-Central-Heathcote 

Community Board member 

Darrell Latham said he was 

“thrilled” that residents’ concerns 

had been acknowledged. 

Completing the footpath and 

the resurfacing work simultaneously 

would “save the ratepayer 

valuable money in the long run,” 

he said. 

“It will also minimise future 

ongoing disruption for residents. 

Safety has to be of paramount 

importance.’’ 

Mrs Duncan said safety 

concerns would remain a “daily 

issue” until the footpath was 

installed, but residents were 

“thinking pragmatically” in the 

interest of working together with 

the city council. 

“Obviously we’d like it done 

urgently, but at the same time we 

have to work with what can be 

done,” she said. 

Residents would continue to 

communicate the risk “as best as 

possible” to drivers. 

“You can’t stop people driving 

on the hill and the risk is there 

because there’s no room for 

error.”

Pupils can watch buildings fall 


DEMOLITION OF the old 

Redcliffs School buildings 

on Main Rd is expected to be 

finished in two weeks. 

Work began on site almost two 

weeks ago. 

Principal Rose McInerney said 

Scope Group contractors have 

demolished the hall and were 

removing asbestos. 

“The kids are really interested 

in it and they’re keeping an 

eye on it because they live close 

by.” 

She said pupils would be allowed 

on site on November 13 to 

see the “biggest, most dramatic 

parts” get demolished. 

“It’s really cool the kids can be 

involved,” she said. 

Meanwhile, the Workforce 

and Education Select Committee 

continues its investigation into 

the Friends of Redcliffs Park’s 

fight to return the school to the 

Main Rd site. 

Group member Chris Doudney 

said it was “very sad” the 

old school buildings were being 

demolished. 

He said the committee had 

received evidence from the 

Ministry of Education and the 

Friends of Redcliffs Park had 

recently sent a response to that. 

Once the committee had 

completed its investigation, it 

would give a recommendation 

to Parliament. There was no 

set time line for how long that 

process could take. 

Once that recommendation 

was given, the Government 

would have 60 days to respond 

as to whether it would take any 

action. 

“I think it’s very unfortunate 

that the Ministry has gone on 

with the demolition without 

waiting for the select committee’s 

recommendation,” Mr Doudney 

said. 

Mrs McInerney said the demolition 

would resonate most with 

the school’s final year group, 

as they had been new entrants 

during the February 22, 2011, 

earthquake. 

She said the demolition of 

the hall was an especially 

emotional time because it had 

been half-owned by the school 

community.

The school had tried to have 

the hall moved to the new school 

site in Redcliffs Park, but due to 

its proximity to the cliffs, it was 

deemed too dangerous. 

“But it’s also great because 

all of the insurance money has 

meant we can have a lovely new 

hall [at the new school] 

. . . similar in size to the one we 

had.” 

The new school was expected 

to open in early 2020.

Butcher up for ‘Olympic’ challenge 

A BUTCHER at New World 

Ferry Road has been selected once 

again to represent New Zealand in 

an event known as the Olympics 

of Butchery. 

Jeremy Garth, who is butchery 

manager at the Woolston supermarket, 

was this week named 

among the seven butchers who 

will make up the New Zealand 

team at the 2020 World Butchers’ 

Challenge. 

It’s the second time the Burnside 

man has made the cut for 

the team known as the ‘Sharp 

Blacks’, having taken part in this 

year’s WBC in Belfast, Northern 

Ireland, where the Sharp Blacks 

placed second. 

“I’m still celebrating being 

selected again,” Mr Garth says. 

“Apart from the captain [Corey 

Winder, also of Christchurch] I’m 

the only one who got back in.” 

He and the other six Sharp 

Blacks will now start preparing for 

the next WBC, to be held in Sacramento, 

California, in September 

2020. 

“Over the next two years we’ll 

meet regularly for training weekends, 

then return to each of our 

home butcheries to apply those 

techniques to what we do for our 

customers.” 

Mr Garth has been assigned a 

new team role too, switching from 

breaking down the raw carcasses 

to turning them into retail cuts. 

For shoppers of New World 

Ferry Road that will mean soon 

being able to buy cuts of meat that 

are indisputably ‘world class’. 

“Being able to talk to customers 

about the wide range of cuts they 

can get is one of the best parts of 

my job. Now I’m essentially going 

to be in training for 2020 every 

day, our shoppers can expect to 

see some good stuff.” 

Steve Anderson, chief executive 

of Foodstuffs South Island, says 

having a butcher of Mr Garth’s 

calibre on the Foodstuffs team 

shows the supermarket operator is 

“getting the right people.” 

“Because our stores are locallyowned 

and operated their butchery 

teams are more responsive 

to local shoppers’ tastes, and also 

more attractive to the best local 

talent – proof of which can be 

seen here,” says Mr Anderson. 

Indeed, Garth’s rise to the top of 

the butchery world is an inspiration 

to young school-leavers. 

“My first job was as a cleaner in a 

butcher shop. Now I’m managing 

a very large city butchery serving 

hundreds of shoppers a day, and 

representing my country at what I 

do best. If I could tell my 16-yearold 

self one thing it would be to 

find something you like and can 

get better at every day, and stick 

at it.”

‘Lyttleton St’ 

blunder in 

Spreydon 

IT’S HAPPENED again. Another 

incorrectly spelt street sign. 

Lyttelton St at the intersection 

with Edinburgh St in Spreydon is 

‘Lyttleton St’. 

City council road maintenance 

manager Mark Pinner said the 

sign “will be corrected.” 

“If it is the contractors, even 

if it is their sub-contractors, error, 

they will pick up the cost of 

replacement,” he said. 

“There are a lot of stages in the 

process, so potentially the error 

could be from when it may have 

been requested to simply what the 

sign manufacturer puts in, and 

even allowing for spell checking, 

names are so individual that this 

isn’t a complete fail-safe. The 

install would be the last line of 

defence.” 

Mistakes on street signs were 

“very infrequent”, he said. 

The most memorable one was 

the spelling of 1974 Christchurch 

Commonwealth Games 10,000m 

gold medal winner Dick Tayler. 

The street sign read ‘Dick Taylor’. 

Others have included 

Moorehouse Ave (correct spelling 

Moorhouse) and a no-stopping 

sign saying ‘Catherdral’.

Extra funding for community groups 

CITY COMMUNITY groups 

will receive an increased amount 

of funding this year from 

Christchurch Casinos Charitable 

Trust annual grants distribution.

problems.

centres and prison-related 

charities. 

“Recipients of funding are 

achieving positive results of 

significant change for individuals 

and families impacted by 

addictive behaviour, including

Food debate goes behind closed doors 


A COMMUNITY board will 

go behind closed doors to 

decide whether it will continue 

spending ratepayer money on 

food for its fortnightly meetings. 

The Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton 

Community Board has 

munched through more than 

$10,000 since it was elected in 

October 2016 – the highest spend 

of any of the city council’s seven 

community boards, Southern 

View revealed last week. 

The food is available at its 

board meetings for board 

members, and city council staff 

and members of the public who 

attend. 

Board chairman Mike Mora 

said members will discuss the 

catering costs at their next meeting 

on November 13, but it will 

be public excluded. 

“It’s an internal matter. I don’t 

see the need that it needs to be 

[public].” 

“It’s a discussion we need 

to have to gauge each other’s 

responses as to what they see as 

our needs,” Mr Mora said. 

Board member Debbie Mora 

is against the idea of discussing 

the future of the catering behind 

closed doors. 

Helen Broughton Mike Mora Debbie Mora 

“I feel as a ratepayer, they have Helen Broughton said she previously 

attempted to hold discus-

Ms Broughton felt if the

“I’ve given an understanding

will be an offline discussion,” she 

said. 

But if the catering discussion is 

deferred again at the next meeting, 

Ms Broughton said she will 

file a notice of motion to discuss 

it publicly. 

Ms Broughton also felt her 

board spent “too much” on

First sail for 

historic tug 

hits delay 


OPERATORS OF the historic tug 

Lyttelton say their first passenger 

cruise will not happen until 

January, a month later than they 

had hoped. 

Tug Lyttelton Preservation Society 

head stoker Mike Bruce said 

the marine surveyor who oversaw 

the tug’s sea trials on October 

4 had given the society a list of 

items to address before they could 

carry passengers. 

Though the society had funding 

to address most of it, the time 

frame pushed the date back from 

December. 

“It’s nothing major, It’s just time 

and effort,” Mr Bruce said. 

The list included the need to 

add another emergency exit and 

update flotation devices, fire 

extinguishers, signage and communication 

equipment. 

The most difficult item to address 

on the list was the requirement 

for the lifeboat to be at least 

2.8m long and capable of travelling 

at 6km for two hours. 

Mr Bruce said the society would 

request an exemption for the 

lifeboat requirement.

Woolworths plans subdivision 


Grand Designs 

host to help 

develop site 


A SUPERMARKET chain 

wants to build laneways and 

“New York-style” apartments in 

Halswell, designed by the host of 

Grand Designs NZ. 

Woolworths NZ, which own 

grocery chains Countdown, 

FreshChoice and Super Value, 

lodged a resource consent 

application for 

a mixed-use 

development at 

a 21ha site at 201 

Halswell Rd. 

The design team 

is led by Grand 

Chris 

Moller 

Designs NZ host 

Chris Moller. 

Public 

submissions opened on 

Wednesday and will remain open 

until November 28. 

The residential part of 

the development includes 

248 dwellings, including 24 

units of two level “New Yorkstyle” 

apartments, a covered 

COMMUNITY charitable 

trust, the Sumner Ferrymead 

Foundation, recently celebrated 

its 25th anniversary at the 

GoodHome Ferrymead. 

Three of the original trustees 

attended – George Scrimshaw, 

Max Percasky, and Julie 

Cunningham, who is still a 

serving trustee. 

The October 25 occasion also 

recognised Mrs Cunningham’s 

remarkable 25-year contribution 

to SFF. 

Since 1993, the foundation has 

given almost $100,000 in grants, 

which has extended financial 

assistance to those pursuing 

education, cultural or sporting 

swimming pool facility, extensive 

landscaping and 3.1991ha of 

reserve and stormwater detention 

areas. 

Said Countdown general 

manager property Adrian 

Walker: “In New York, these 

[apartments] were conversions of 

old brownstone factories but new 

replica-style buildings typically 

replicate the key characteristics 

of weathered brick, high stud and 

saw tooth roof.” 

endeavours, and also to community 

groups, who play an important 

role. 

The foundation was the vision 

of Sumner-born Dora Grut, who 

married a Canadian and moved 

to Vancouver. 

After returning to Canada 

from a 1991 visit home, she donated 

$10,500 to start a Sumner 

Community Trust, to be run 

along the lines of the Vancouver 

Foundation. 

The Vancouver Foundation 

started in 1943 with $1000 

donated from receptionist Alice 

McKay’s savings. 

She had donated the money 

to assist the wives and families 

The commercial component 

of the proposal includes a 

Countdown supermarket, 

medical centre, cafe, childcare 

facility, retail space for 21 tenants, 

a tavern, 522 car parks, covered 

outdoor spaces, landscaping and 

lawn seating. 

There are no groundwater 

springs below the proposed site. 

The company lodged the 

resource consent application in 

December last year. 

of Vancouver soldiers killed in 

France during World War 2. 

A Vancouver businessman was 

impressed with her generosity 

and added a further $10,000, 

encouraging nine others to do 

likewise. 

That foundation, which began 

with $101,000, today exceeds one 

billion dollars. 

Similarly, since Dora Grut’s 

initial donation, the Sumner 

Ferrymead Foundation has 

grown significantly through 

the generosity of many 

local benefactors within the 

community. 

Only interest from the invested 

funds is used for grants, 

PLANNED: This 21ha site on Halswell Rd is currently covered in 

overgrown weeds but could soon have a subdivision with “New 

York-style” apartments. 

In its application, Woolworths 

said a dimension often missing 

in contemporary suburbs is a 

sense of community or collective 

life. 

The vision for the project 

includes a “village life” approach, 

which will be encouraged by 

lanes, bridleways and pocket 

parks. 

“The Halswell project is 

already zoned for residential and 

commercial as part of the larger 

Halswell key activity centre 

development to be built over the 

and the foundation considers 

applications from groups and 

individuals in a catchment area 

running from east of Tunnel Rd 

to Taylors Mistake. 

Donations to the foundation 

can be for a specific community 

use or asset, or for discretionary 

funds – all gratefully received as 

the trustees are looking to grow 

the fund. 

•Anyone wishing to 

donate, or requiring further 

information, could phone 

John Taylor 0274 326 972,

next 25 years,” Mr Walker said. 

This is not Woolworths NZ’s 

first foray into a mixed-use 

development. The company built 

31 buildings in Vinegar Ln, in 

Ponsonby, Auckland. 

“We’re excited to bring a high 

quality development to Halswell,” 

Mr Walker said. 

A construction management 

plan is yet to be submitted. 

Should the resource consent be 

approved, construction would 

start about a year after a design 

and tender process.

SOUTHERN VIEW 

Nuturing the young for 167 years 

The late US journalist 

Herb Caen wrote: “A city 

is not gauged by its length 

and width but by the 

broadness of its vision and 

the height of its dreams.” 

Caen might have been 

writing of Christchurch, 

as our visions for the new 

city pay homage to the 

dreams of the founders 

while unleashing our own 

dreams for a lofty future. 

At the heart of the 

city since those earliest 

aspirational days when the 

founders laid out the first 

roads and planted the first 

trees, St Michael’s has had 

at its heart the vision and 

dreams of our city and its 

children. 

Indeed, for 167 years, 

St Michael’s has been 

educating and nurturing 

the visionaries and 

dreamers who continue to 

shape our city and step 

out into the world beyond. 

For our young pupils have 

limitless potential to lead 

exciting and generous 

lives, and we have the 

responsibility to educate and inspire 

them, to encourage every child to 

flourish, in mind, body and spirit. 

St Michael’s is a prep school for girls 

and boys in Years 1-8. Our classes are 

small, fewer than 20 pupils, and our 

specialist teachers ensure each child is 

an individual, well known by staff and 

fellow pupils alike. For at the heart of 

St Michael’s are the essential values 

of Christian faith and good citizenship: 

respect, integrity, community, faith, 

hope and love. 

An independent school education 

at the primary level is a great gift 

and so traditional foundations in 

Counting the beat, an exploration of rhythm. Year 1 

and 2 Music. 

English and Maths are assured. This 

academic rigour then underpins our 

wider curriculums in Science, History, 

Geography and Spanish. IT literacy is 

taught, not assumed, and computer 

use is measured. We like teaching and 

talking to our pupils! 

A prep education offers balance. 

St Michael’s cultural and sports’ 

programmes further develop each 

child’s foundation, as creativity and 

problem-solving come in many forms. 

Specialist art and music classes are 

enjoyed weekly. We have two choirs, 

and most pupils play at least one 

instrument or study speech and 

drama with one of our nine 

itinerant staff. 

Located in the heart of 

the city, on the banks of 

the Avon and the new City 

Promenade, our extended 

campus is spectacular: 

today, the Art Gallery; 

tomorrow, the Gardens; 

tennis later in Hagley Park. 

A recent school survey 

indicates that many of 

our parents now work in 

the thriving city centre, 

or Lincoln and Riccarton 

Road hubs but they live 

city-wide. They comment 

on the benefit of knowing 

their children are in 

school nearby and the 

convenience of popping 

in for an hour to catch 

a performance or watch 

a race. With the new 

central exchange only a 

block away, a number of 

children arrive by bus from 

all corners of the city. 

Is your child one of 15 

or 50? Is their classroom a 

calm, productive learning 

space or is the noise and 

movement unceasing? How 

much of the teacher’s attention does 

your child actually receive? There is 

an alternative. 

You and your child are warmly 

invited to discover for yourselves

inclusive prep school. Our Open Day

Bigger and better book fair 


A MOUNTAIN of donated 

books is growing at Lyttelton 

Primary School in the lead up 

to its second biennial book fair. 

Organised by parents from 

the school’s family hub, the 

November 10 event would see 

thousands of donated books go 

up for sale out of the Lyttelton 

Arts Factory. 

Lyttelton Primary School 

secretary and librarian Rita 

Norris said the first book fair in 

2016 had boosted the library’s 

stock and allowed the school to 

run literary events over the last 

two years. 

“It enabled us to top up with 

new books as it had been a bit 

depleted [after the merger].” 

The 2016 event saw the 

library receive about 300 books 

from the more than 5000 donated, 

while book sales raised 

$5500. 

Mrs Norris said it had meant 

the library could get “back up to 

where it should be.” 

She said the organisers were 

“just amazing” and the school 

library would not be where it 

was without them. 

Family hub member and 

organiser Ruth Connor said the 

school’s library was looking “a 

lot healthier” after the last book 

fair. 

“But to be honest, the whole 

thing needs 

overhauling, especially nonfiction. 

A lot of that is 10-yearsold 

and things have changed. 

“We need to keep the collection 

exciting for kids.” 

She said people could still 

donate books to be sold and 

organisers hoped to “have a 

similar or greater amount of 

books this year and we’re well 

on the way.” 

“If people have good quality 

books, absolutely we’d love 

them,” Ms Connor said. 

While they would accept any 

donated books, not everything 

was going to sell, she said. 

“People are always trying to 

get rid of their 1980s microwave 

cookbooks.” 

Ms Connor said the books 

were priced low, adults books

bus lanes 

in operation 

NEW BUS lanes installed as part 

of the Riccarton Rd upgrade are 

now in operation. 

The bus priority work helps 

the 3000 people a day who board 

buses in Riccarton, and people 

passing through the area, reach 

their destinations on time. 

Christchurch City Council 

transport operations manager 

Steffan Thomas says the dedicated 

bus lanes are integral to the 

success of the city’s transport 

network. 

“It is important that other 

vehicles keep clear of these bus 

lanes so that everyone can arrive 

at their destinations on time,” Mr 

Thomas says. 

“We all need to support the delivery 

of an efficient and effective 

public transport network across 

the city, and dedicated lanes help 

achieve that.” 

The bus lanes will be enforced 

through bus lane cameras. 

“Motorists ignoring the rules 

face a $150 fine if they are caught 

wrongly using the bus lanes, while 

those who park in the lanes can 

receive a $60 fine, along with a 

bill for towing costs,” Mr Thomas 

says.

CASHMERE JUNIORS’ Lucia 

Gale, Ruby Young and Nant 

Prachuabmoh have been selected 

to represent Canterbury at the 

national junior teams event. 

Lucia and Ruby have both been 

selected to represent Canterbury’s 

12 and under team, while Nant 

will play in the 14 and under 

squad. 

Said Cashmere junior coach 

James Meredith: “It’s very rare in 

tennis to have a team environment 

because it’s usually a very 

individual sport. It’s great for 

these guys to be in an environment 

where it’s about playing 

for one another and being there 

to support and cheer on one 

another.” 

At just 10-years-old, Lucia is 

the youngest player in the Canterbury 

team. After a stellar year 

that saw her win the Rod Laver 

Queensland junior championships 

at Brisbane in July, she will 

now battle against older competitors 

when the 12 and under team 

look to go one better than they 

did in January. 

Ruby has recently moved to 

Cashmere to play interclub and 

will look to play a key role for the 

team after finishing fourth at the 

12 and under singles in January. 

Nant is likely to play as the 14 

and under No 1 singles player 

TALENT: Lucia Gale is the 

youngest player in the 

Canterbury 12 and under 

squad. 

after finishing fourth in his age 

group at the NZ junior masters 

finals in Hamilton last month. 

Both the 12 and under and 14 

and under team events will take 

place at Wilding Park from January 

15-18. The event follows the 

14 and under individual championships 

from January 10-14 and 

is proceeded by the 12 and under 

tournament from January 19-23. 

“For these guys it’s about being 

able to flick the switch from being 

an individual to being a team 

player,” said Meredith. 

Each tie will consist of three 

boys singles, three girls singles, 

one boys doubles, one girls 

doubles and one mixed doubles 

match. Auckland are the current 

champions at 12, 14 and 16 and 

under level. 

Keas president 

keeps winning 

momentum 

• By Jacob Page 

LINWOOD KEAS president 

Hana Kakoi is adamant the 

club’s 106th season will be just 

as good as their 105th. 

The 28-year-old, first-year 

president has seen the club’s 

men’s and women’s premier 

teams win their respective competitions. 

The club won the Poore Cup 

at the Canterbury Rugby League 

awards, as it was the most 

consistent club to make finals 

appearances across all grades 

this year. 

Mrs Kakoi was also named 

club president of the year at the 

awards night. 

“We’ve certainly created history 

in a lot of areas this year 

but a lot of that comes from the 

hard work of our coaches and 

volunteers,” she said. “For our 

premier women to win their first 

ever title and the men to win it 

three years in a row for the first 

time was amazing.” 

She said the club had 350 

members as well as 70 volunteers 

who give up their time in a 

coaching, training or management 

capacity each season. 

Mrs Kakoi said premier men’s 

coach Andrew Auimatagi’s ‘big 

brother’ initiative, which saw a 

senior player assigned to one of 

the 15 junior teams, had been a 

big plus in 2018. 

“We’re so fortunate to have 

Andrew at our club,” she said. 

“His work ethic is amazing 

and, in fact, he’s already messaged 

me saying that he’s bored 

already, so he’ll be using the 

off-season to plan for 2019.” 

Mrs Kakoi has been part of 

the Keas for the past five seasons 

and is the first woman to be 

president. 

“To win (president of the year) 

was quite unexpected but a huge 

honour.” She said with games 

moving to Nga Puna Wai next 

year, she expected the facility 

would allow club’s to hold on to 

their junior players for longer. 

“The issue at the junior level 

has been finding parks for them 

to play at on a Friday and Monday 

night that had lights, so going 

to Nga Puna Wai and having 

one location will make things a 

lot easier.” 

She said the club was keen to 

strengthen its governance to 

ensure the Keas continued to 

build on a stellar season.

it’s too late to get your 

home’s earthquake 

repairs checked.

Collagen 

The Body’s Youth Protein 

Collagen is the primary protein in the 

body. It is a major component of skin, 

hair, nails, muscles, tendons, ligaments, 

joint cartilage, bones, gums, teeth, eyes, 

and blood vessels. 

In fact collagen is the primary structural 

component for all tissue in the body, 

providing the strength and resilience 

associated with youth, beauty and 

wellness. The body’s natural collagen 

production decreases with age resulting 

in many signs of aging, such as flaccid 

skin, wrinkles, ligament and tendon 

injuries and aching joints. Collagen 

supplementation is one of the most 

fundamental things a person can do to 

prevent premature aging and promote 

youthful vitality. 

NEOCELL are the industry leaders in 

research on collagen supplementation. 

Through advanced research they have 

perfected a way to hydrolyse collagen and 

effectively reduce its molecular weight this 

improving the absorption of collagen into 

the blood stream by over 90%. 

A clinical study on NEOCELL 

COLLAGEN has shown skin hydration to 

increase an average of 21% and up to 50%, 

with 92% of test subjects experiencing 

firmer, softer skin. Most people taking 

NEOCELL COLLAGEN reported seeing 

visible improvements within two weeks. 

Collagen supplementation provides 

the nutrients necessary to support the 

body’s collagen supply. It can help reduce 

fine lines and wrinkles and improve skin 

elasticity, support building of strong bones

The tree of LIFE 

New research on Gingko 

Biloba excites researchers! 

For decades scientists believed brain 

damage with age, after a stroke or injury 

was irreversible and brain neurons could 

not be repaired. In more recent times, 

new research has shown that neurons 

can grow back with the right conditions 

and that a special extract of Gingko 

Biloba (EGb-761 or TEBONIN) has 

been clinically found to assist in this. 

The implications for stroke recovery are 

obvious, but researchers also know many 

of us suffer from undetected “microstrokes” 

that over a period of time slowly 

reduce our cognitive function. TEBONIN 

is prescribed worldwide as a natural 

supportive agent for a healthy brain and 

cognitive function. It supports healthy 

mental performance, concentration, focus, 

alertness, motor function and to help 

with many conditions including tinnitus 

(ringing and noise in the ears), vertigo 

and normal balance. TEBONIN improves 

micro-circulation and helps the blood 

flow reach those critical places it needs to 

get. It is a potent anti-oxidant and makes 

the red blood cells more pliable and 

capillary walls more flexible. 

TEBONIN is one of the most widely 

studied and researched herbal products in 

the world and is the only Ginkgo biloba 

extract manufactured via a patented 

multi-step extraction process. Each small

Public Notices 

Our Lady of the 

Assumption School 

To avoid overcrowding, or the likelihood 

of overcrowding, the board of Our Lady of 

the Assumption School has adopted an 

enrolment scheme that has been approved 

by the Secretary for Education. 

Under this scheme, students will be enrolled 

if they live within the home zone described 

below. The boundaries of our home zone 

are the boundaries of the Catholic Parish of 

Hoon Hay and Halswell. 

The enrolment of out-of-zone students is 

governed by the provisions of the Education 

Act 1989. 

The enrolment scheme, which includes 

a precise description of the home zone, 

may be viewed at the school office, 

where copies of the scheme are also 

available, or on our school website
