DENTON PARK is again the<br />
subject of controversy.<br />
The Halswell-Hornby-<br />
Riccarton Community Board<br />
last week rejected an application<br />
from the Hornby Rugby Football<br />
Club to cover legal bills in their<br />
campaign to keep Denton Park’s<br />
reserve status.<br />
Save Denton Park chairman<br />
Mark Peters – who was at the<br />
meeting – said voters would<br />
remember the decision at next<br />
year’s local body elections.<br />
HRFU requested their full legal<br />
bill of $1380 be covered.<br />
The club refused to comment<br />
to the <strong>Western</strong> <strong>News</strong>.<br />
The Council Delegations Register<br />
states that community boards<br />
cannot grant money from its<br />
discretionary response fund to<br />
cover legal challenges against the<br />
city council.<br />
But board deputy chairwoman<br />
Helen Broughton argued that the<br />
board should ask the city council<br />
for an exception and grant the<br />
money to HRFU.<br />
She was backed by board member<br />
Debbie Mora.<br />
“The reason I think it’s important<br />
that council grants [the<br />
money] if they will, is [because] on<br />
this occasion the hearings panel<br />
decided that the community was<br />
correct and they did not wish to<br />
give up the reserve status for Denton<br />
Park, “ Ms Broughton said.<br />
“They had to battle it from<br />
August 2017 to May <strong>2018</strong>. I think<br />
it’s a reasonable, low-level request<br />
for funding,” she said.<br />
LTD<br />
Ms Broughton and Ms Mora<br />
lost the vote 6-2.<br />
Board member and city<br />
councillor Vicki Buck said: “The<br />
community board doesn’t have<br />
Hearing aids –<br />
the next generation.<br />

LAST WEEK we reported on Halswell<br />
Hornets’ Jeff Whittaker’s life membership<br />
honour at the Canterbury Rugby League<br />
awards.<br />
This issue we have caught up with two<br />
other awardees (page 11) who received recognition at the same<br />
ceremony – Riccarton Knights’ Shane Tamatea (sportsman of<br />
the year) and Tony Grenfell (volunteer of the year).<br />
Tony, who is also a life member of Riccarton, was described<br />
at the awards as “someone who lives and breathes rugby league<br />
from the pre-season until the very end of the national season,<br />
offering assistance every step of the way.”<br />
Said Tony: “There are heaps of jobs and they all have to get<br />
done,” he said.<br />
A real club man so to speak.<br />

Woolworths plans subdivision<br />
Grand Designs<br />
host to help<br />
develop site<br />
• By Anan Zaki<br />
A SUPERMARKET chain<br />
wants to build laneways and<br />
“New York-style” apartments in<br />
Halswell, designed by the host of<br />
Grand Designs NZ.<br />
Woolworths NZ, which own<br />
grocery chains Countdown,<br />
FreshChoice and Super Value,<br />
lodged a resource consent<br />
application for<br />
a mixed-use<br />
development at<br />
a 21ha site at 201<br />
Halswell Rd.<br />
The design team<br />
is led by Grand<br />
Chris<br />
Moller<br />
Designs NZ host<br />
Chris Moller.<br />
Public<br />
submissions opened on<br />
Wednesday and will remain open<br />
until <strong>November</strong> 28.<br />
The residential part of<br />
the development includes<br />
248 dwellings, including 24<br />
units of two level “New Yorkstyle”<br />
apartments, a covered<br />
swimming pool facility, extensive<br />
landscaping and 3.1991ha of<br />
reserve and stormwater detention<br />
areas.<br />
Said Countdown general<br />
manager property Adrian<br />
Walker: “In New York, these<br />
[apartments] were conversions of<br />
old brownstone factories but new<br />
replica-style buildings typically<br />
replicate the key characteristics<br />
of weathered brick, high stud and<br />
saw tooth roof.”<br />
The commercial component<br />
of the proposal includes a<br />
Countdown supermarket,<br />
medical centre, cafe, childcare<br />
facility, retail space for 21<br />
tenants, a tavern, 522 car<br />
parks, covered outdoor spaces,<br />
landscaping and lawn seating.<br />
There are no groundwater<br />
springs below the proposed site.<br />
The company lodged the<br />
resource consent application in<br />
December last year.<br />
In its application, Woolworths<br />
said a dimension often missing in<br />
contemporary suburbs is a sense<br />
of community or collective life.<br />
The vision for the project<br />
includes a “village life” approach,<br />
which will be encouraged by<br />
lanes, bridleways and pocket<br />
parks.<br />
“The Halswell project is<br />
already zoned for residential and<br />
PLANNED: This 21ha site<br />
on Halswell Rd is currently<br />
covered in overgrown weeds<br />
but could soon have a<br />
subdivision with “New Yorkstyle”<br />
apartments.<br />
commercial as part of the larger<br />
Halswell key activity centre<br />
development to be built over the<br />
next 25 years,” Mr Walker said.<br />
This is not Woolworths NZ’s<br />
first foray into a mixed-use<br />
development. The company built<br />
31 buildings in Vinegar Ln, in<br />
Ponsonby, Auckland.<br />
“We’re excited to bring a high<br />
quality development to Halswell,”<br />
Mr Walker said.<br />
A construction management<br />
plan is yet to be submitted.<br />
Should the resource consent be<br />
approved, construction would<br />
start about a year after a design<br />
and tender process.<br />

INTERSECTION CHANGE<br />
Turning restrictions for<br />
Blenheim Rd and Main South<br />
Rd have been approved by the<br />
Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton<br />
Community Board. The<br />
intersection of Annex and<br />
Blenheim Rd in Middleton<br />
will have no U-turn<br />
restrictions. The restriction<br />
will be installed in about<br />
four weeks. Main South Rd<br />
will get two no-right turn<br />
and U-turn restrictions.<br />
The board voted restrictions<br />
be placed at the road’s two<br />
intersections with Harvard<br />
Ave and Green Lane. The<br />
board also requested staff<br />
look at a right turn bay near<br />
Harvard Ave.<br />
SPEED LIMITS REDUCED<br />
Reduced speed limits in<br />
Templeton have been given<br />
the green light. The<br />
Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton<br />
Community Board last<br />
week voted to implement<br />
the city council staff<br />
recommendation to reduce<br />
the speed limit from<br />
100km/h to 80km/h on<br />
Dawsons, Hasketts, Jones,<br />
Kirk, Leggett, Maddisons,<br />
Newtons and Waterloo Rds.<br />
The changes will be installed<br />
in about six weeks.<br />

Kitchen fire destroys home<br />
• By Sophie Cornish<br />
A HOUSE fire which destroyed a<br />
family home in Avonhead started<br />
in the kitchen.<br />
Fire and Emergency New<br />
Zealand were called to a property<br />
in Kirkdale Pl, Avonhead around<br />
1.30pm on October 29.<br />
Fire investigator Darren Aiken<br />
confirmed the fire was not suspicious<br />
and started in the kitchen.<br />
He could not confirm how it<br />
started until the investigation was<br />
complete.<br />
However, Mr Aiken said the<br />
fire highlights the need for people<br />
to be careful with any heating or<br />
hot materials in the house.<br />
No one was injured in the fire.<br />
“Unfortunately, we have had a<br />
whole family displaced and lost<br />
all their possessions,” said Mr<br />
Aiken.<br />
The Orion website said power<br />
had been shut off to 15 houses in<br />
the area and remained disconnected<br />
after 4pm, as a result of<br />
the fire.<br />
On October 22, two homes in<br />
Alvaston Drive, Halswell were<br />
destroyed by a fire which started<br />
from a heater being accidentally<br />
turned on.<br />
A couch was up against the<br />
heater and caught alight.<br />
Fire and Emergency NZ<br />
spokesman Andrew Norris<br />
said the two houses were joined<br />
together and both received<br />
“extensive damage.”<br />
FIERCE: An accidental kitchen fire gutted this family home in<br />
Avonhead.<br />
Riccarton<br />
bus lanes<br />
in operation<br />
NEW BUS lanes installed as part<br />
of the Riccarton Rd upgrade are<br />
now in operation.<br />
The bus priority work helps<br />
the 3000 people a day who board<br />
buses in Riccarton, and people<br />
passing through the area, reach<br />
their destinations on time.<br />
Christchurch City Council<br />
transport operations manager<br />
Steffan Thomas says the dedicated<br />
bus lanes are integral to the<br />
success of the city’s transport<br />
network.<br />
“It is important that other<br />
vehicles keep clear of these bus<br />
lanes so that everyone can arrive<br />
at their destinations on time,” Mr<br />
Thomas says.<br />
“We all need to support the delivery<br />
of an efficient and effective<br />
public transport network across<br />
the city, and dedicated lanes help<br />
achieve that.”<br />
The bus lanes will be enforced<br />
through bus lane cameras.<br />
“Motorists ignoring the rules<br />
face a $150 fine if they are caught<br />
wrongly using the bus lanes, while<br />
those who park in the lanes can<br />
receive a $60 fine, along with a<br />
bill for towing costs,” Mr Thomas<br />
says.<br />

Award for enterprising Villa students<br />
A VILLA Maria College<br />
team proved too good for the<br />
competition at Wednesday’s<br />
Canterbury Young Enterprise<br />
Scheme awards.<br />
The team, Too Good Foods,<br />
won the supreme award for the<br />
region.<br />
Too Good’s Maddison Barrett,<br />
Kate Beentjes, Isabella Brunel,<br />
Amelia King, Jessica Smith<br />
and Simone Turner worked<br />
together during the year-long<br />
programme to develop their<br />
product, a healthy cracker.<br />
Starting [the competition]<br />
with just $5 each, the girls have<br />
made a $250 profit so far.<br />
They manufactured the crackers,<br />
developed marketing and<br />
social media, created finance<br />
plans, sold the product through<br />
markets and were approved<br />
by Foodstuffs to sell through<br />
supermarkets.<br />
The budding business, which<br />
plans to expand into more<br />
supermarkets, won $300 cash,<br />
an Ara Institute of Canterbury<br />
Scholarship, certificates and a<br />
trophy.<br />
The YES programme develops<br />
entrepreneurial business skills<br />
along with personal development,<br />
confidence, leadership<br />

growing native trees and planting<br />
them in a designated forest.<br />
The teams had triumphed<br />

Quarry officials to front up<br />
• By Anan Zaki<br />
FULTON HOGAN officials will<br />
front up in Templeton for the<br />
first time tonight to discuss their<br />
quarry proposal.<br />
Since first announcing the<br />
170ha quarry proposal in Templeton<br />
and Weedons last year,<br />
the company has steered clear of<br />
Templeton.<br />
The company<br />
is planning<br />
a series<br />
of information<br />
evenings from<br />
tonight until<br />
Thursday, in a<br />
marquee next to<br />
the Templeton<br />
Garry Kilday Community<br />
Centre.<br />
Residents can hear the latest<br />
information relating to the<br />
quarry proposal and discuss<br />
concerns with Fulton Hogan<br />
technical experts.<br />
Templeton Residents’ Association<br />
chairman Garry Kilday<br />
welcomed the move but called<br />
for more.<br />
“I would’ve preferred the way we<br />
wanted it, if the whole community<br />
is engaged.” Mr Kilday said.<br />
“In a group people will ask<br />
more questions,” he said.<br />
He has not yet decided if he<br />
will attend the information sessions.<br />
Mr Kilday said Fulton Hogan<br />
has previously not visited<br />
Templeton.<br />
Fulton Hogan South Island<br />
general manager Craig Stewart<br />
says it’s an opportunity for<br />
residents to share their concerns<br />
and hear from experts how the<br />
company is planning to deal with<br />
issues such as dust, truck movements<br />
and water quality.<br />
“We recognise and understand<br />
that some of the residents are<br />
concerned about the impact the<br />
quarry might have on the community.”<br />

“We have a lot of information<br />
including the proposed site<br />
layout, the latest technology<br />
looking at issues like wind<br />
direction and weather<br />
monitoring, and new technology<br />
on display like water fogging and<br />
misting machines which stop any<br />
dust leaving the site,” Mr Stewart<br />
said.<br />
He hoped hearing information<br />
from experts will “allay any fears<br />
they [residents] may have.”<br />
“We want to be really open and<br />
honest with the community and<br />
that’s why we are coming out to<br />

four days to give people every<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />
Denton Park battle<br />
costs won’t<br />
be met by board<br />
•From page 1<br />
After a heated 25min debate,<br />
the board accepted a city council<br />
staff recommendation to reject<br />
the application on the basis it did<br />
not have the power to grant the<br />
money.<br />
Ms Broughton said it would<br />
have been a “show of good faith”<br />
to the Hornby community to ask<br />
the city council for an exception.<br />
Mr Peters said it was “unfortunate”<br />
that board members “could<br />
not understand” Ms Broughton’s<br />
amendment.<br />
He described the meeting as<br />
“very tense”.<br />
“It was a telling meeting that<br />
would paint a lot of pictures in<br />
light of next year’s elections. That<br />
was their one chance as a board to<br />
show some good faith to the community<br />
that they were embattled<br />
with,” Mr Peters said.<br />
The board also turned down another<br />
funding application by the<br />
Yaldhurst Environment Group –<br />
Hau Ora Inc on the same grounds<br />
as the HRFU application.<br />

for $37,000 to help cover it’s Environment<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />
Readers react to the<br />
community boards’ catering<br />
bill, footed by the ratepayer<br />
Heather Wilkins – This has<br />
to stop. They should take their<br />
own food. My hubby goes to<br />
work and takes his own smokos<br />
and lunch just like most others<br />
do. Why should I pay for<br />
their food? They don’t pay for<br />
my morning tea or lunch or<br />
afternoon tea. Why should the<br />
ratepayers pay? Get off the gravy<br />
train and pay for it yourself.<br />
Guess we won’t be seeing our<br />
community board around the<br />
community for a few weeks then.<br />
Natasha Lott – I love the<br />
comment it’s not fair to have people<br />
sitting for two to three hours<br />
with hunger pains, umm eat before<br />
you go maybe. A few biscuits<br />
and snacks every now and then<br />
is fine but having full catering to<br />
every meeting to avoid ‘hunger<br />
pains’ is a little silly.<br />
Sharren Wilson – Absolutely<br />
should not be paid for out of<br />
rates. Every time some CEO has<br />
a meeting with another CEO<br />
and associates . . . they delve into<br />
ratepayers’ funds. With technology<br />
the way it is they could have<br />
meetings via Skype and conference<br />
calling saving on airfares<br />
and food. Stop the rot now. It’s<br />
not necessary.<br />
Maria Lee – Does this council<br />
really not know how many<br />
ratepayers on not on their side.<br />
People we need to vote this council<br />
out in the next election.<br />
Fred Gear – I have absolutely<br />
no problem whatsoever with<br />
this. All the whingers are just<br />
saddos who love to be part of the<br />
chattering class that knock everything<br />
that others deserve.<br />
Tania Jones – A packet of<br />
biscuits and a cuppa would suffice<br />
for morning and afternoon<br />
tea. Eat your breakfast and take<br />
your lunchbox like every other<br />
employee.<br />
Karl Dean – I have no issue<br />
with this but they should have<br />
been making it more clear to the<br />
public that it’s for everyone who<br />
attends. They might get more<br />
people there, and most meetings<br />
for the organisations I am on<br />
have some sort of supplied food<br />
for a snack after the meeting. You<br />
would be amazed at the amount<br />
of productive conversation after a<br />
meeting instead of everyone just<br />
heading off.<br />
Reuben Tekoeti-Mead –<br />
When you look at the actual figure<br />
between the different boards<br />
per year its almost nothing.<br />
People who think $50,000 is<br />
enough to feed seven different<br />
boards ‘lunch and smoko’ every<br />
day for two years must be living<br />
in an alternate universe and<br />
clearly didn’t actually read the<br />
whole article.<br />
PT Patrick Enright – Man<br />
$49,000 could feed hungry kids<br />
for a year rather than corporates<br />
who probably have good jobs in<br />
the first place to even be able to<br />
get on that board. But that’s the<br />
council for you – feed the rich<br />
before fixing the drains.<br />
Paula Rose – Hunger pains<br />
during a two to three-hour meeting<br />
– eat before you go. And if you<br />
are going to waste our rates on<br />
food at your meetings please try<br />
and make some healthier choices.<br />
Seriously, cakes, biscuits, lollies . . .<br />
it’s a meeting not a kids party.<br />
Jonnie F. Omen – Two $20<br />
bags of savouries every two to<br />
three weeks is almost a grand.<br />
Breaking it down like that it’s not<br />
exactly a lot of money, just the big<br />
figure looks like it is.<br />
Lisa Hetherington – There<br />
are a lot of volunteer committees<br />
who also sit around for two to<br />
three hours in meetings who have<br />
to go hungry. Not to mention all<br />
those who go hungry everyday. .<br />
Nikki Macpherson – When<br />
you spend public money you<br />
need to be certain in your justification.<br />
I’ve worked for a DHB.<br />
We had to self pay our Christmas<br />
function. That’s okay. The public<br />
purse was better spent on meeting<br />
more health needs.<br />

Riccarton league stalwarts awarded<br />
• By Jacob Page<br />
TWO OF the Riccarton<br />
Knights’ most influential people<br />
got their moment of recognition<br />
at the Canterbury Rugby League<br />
awards.<br />
Veteran senior player Shane<br />
Tamatea was named sportsman<br />
of the year, while Tony Grenfell<br />
was named volunteer of the year.<br />
Grenfell, who is a life member<br />
of the club, was described at the<br />
awards night as someone who<br />
lives and breathes rugby league<br />
from the pre-season until the<br />
very end of the national season,<br />
offering assistance every step of<br />
the way.<br />
Grenfell said he came to<br />
the club in 2002 when his son<br />
Dwayne wanted to play premiers<br />
and has never left.<br />
“I love the club [and] the<br />
people and for me it’s become a<br />
big part of my life.”<br />
Grenfell is on the club<br />
committee and has been the<br />
premier team’s manager since<br />
2005.<br />
However, you’re just as likely<br />
to see him sweeping the floors<br />
or marking the field for a day’s<br />
play.<br />
“There are heaps of jobs and<br />
they all have to get done,” he<br />
said.<br />
“If you want something done<br />
right, you have to do it yourself.<br />
It’s quite humbling to receive<br />
an honour like that, it’s not<br />
really what I do it for, but to<br />
RECOGNITION: Riccarton Knights stalwarts Tony Grenfell and Shane Tamatea with their<br />
Canterbury Rugby League awards<br />
be recognised, that was a great<br />
feeling.<br />
Tamatea has been a premier<br />
player since 2000, when he<br />
debuted at 18. The 37-year-old<br />
second-rower has also coached<br />
the under-18 Knights team and<br />
has been a player-coach, pulling<br />
double-duty for the premier<br />
reserves side. If Tamatea plays<br />
a full season next year, he will<br />
bring up 300 games for the<br />
club’s premier team.<br />
“Looking at all the names<br />
on the cup made it really sink<br />
in how special this award is,”<br />
Tamatea said.<br />
He said he would keep playing<br />
premier rugby league for as long<br />
as his body holds up.<br />
“We won it all in 2002 and<br />
2004, so I got a taste of that<br />
success early, but I’d really like<br />
to get the team back to another<br />
one before I give it away.”<br />

Austin goes from the<br />
Halswell Hornets to<br />
Canada Wolverines<br />
HALSWELL Hornets’ Brad<br />
Austin is set to become the first<br />
New Zealand-based league<br />
player to be selected for the<br />
Canada Wolverines later this<br />
month.<br />
Austin, 27, has<br />
been selected for<br />
the forthcoming<br />
Americas<br />
Championship,<br />
which will also<br />
act as a qualifier<br />
for the 2021<br />
Rugby League<br />
World Cup in<br />
England.<br />
The University<br />
of North Florida,<br />
Jacksonville, will<br />
host two doubleheader<br />
rounds<br />
on <strong>November</strong> 13<br />
and 17.<br />
Austin’s<br />
selection comes<br />
about thanks to<br />
a conversation<br />
with his grandmother about<br />
her father, who died during<br />
World War 2 while on duty with<br />
the Queen’s Own Cameron<br />
Highlanders of Canada.<br />
“To be given the opportunity<br />
to represent Canada in the<br />
World Cup qualifiers is an<br />
absolute privilege,” said Austin<br />
to the website Total Rugby<br />
Brad Austin<br />
League.<br />
“My nana, who was born<br />
in Winnipeg, was excited to<br />
hear the news of my selection,<br />
as were family members I still<br />
have living over there and<br />
in Vancouver.”<br />
Austin,<br />
initially played<br />
for the Halswell<br />
Hornets, South<br />
Island Scorpions,<br />
Canterbury<br />
Bulls and the<br />
Canterbury<br />
Maori team,<br />
before moving<br />
to Australia<br />
and joining<br />
Wests Devils<br />
and winning a<br />
championship<br />
with them in the<br />
Illawarra league.<br />
Austin is still<br />
a member of the<br />
Hornets’ premier<br />
squad and his<br />
dad, Lance, is still an active<br />
member at the club.<br />
“I believe we have a great<br />
chance to make history by<br />
qualifying for the Rugby<br />
League World Cup, and I<br />
will do everything possible to<br />
help achieve this goal for my<br />
teammates, my family and for<br />
Canada,” Austin said.<br />
Cobham beat rivals in<br />
water polo final<br />
• By Jacob Page<br />
COBHAM Intermediate got one<br />
back in the final of the South<br />
Island year 7 and 8 water polo<br />
champs at Dunedin’s Moana<br />
Pool.<br />
Cobham beat Christ The King<br />
7-5 to win the title on October<br />
28. They previously drew with<br />
Christ The King 4-4 during<br />
the round-robin and lost the<br />
Canterbury title decider to them<br />
the previous week.<br />
Cobham beat Canterbury<br />
Combined 8-3, Southland<br />
Combined 7-6, Balmacewen<br />
Intermediate 7-2, James Hargest<br />
College 3-2 and Casebrook<br />
Intermediate 8-5 on their way to<br />
the title.<br />
Cobham won five of their<br />
six games and reversed the<br />
Canterbury championships<br />
result in which they were beaten<br />
by Christ the King.<br />
Teacher in charge of water<br />
polo Kate Dore said it was<br />
Cobham’s first South Island title<br />
in six attempts.<br />
“Christ The King had been<br />
the benchmark all season, so<br />
for us to draw with them in the<br />
round-robin game gave us a<br />
lot of confidence that we were<br />
able to use for the rest of the<br />
tournament,” she said.<br />
Dore said the team trained<br />
once a week at Christ’s College.<br />
Six of their players are part of<br />
the Canterbury set-up, while the<br />
rest are first-timers.<br />
“The team has really improved<br />

WESTERN NEWS<br />
Nuturing the young for 167 years<br />
The late US journalist<br />
Herb Caen wrote: “A city<br />
is not gauged by its length<br />
and width but by the<br />
broadness of its vision and<br />
the height of its dreams.”<br />
Caen might have been<br />
writing of Christchurch,<br />
as our visions for the new<br />
city pay homage to the<br />
dreams of the founders<br />
while unleashing our own<br />
dreams for a lofty future.<br />
At the heart of the<br />
city since those earliest<br />
aspirational days when the<br />
founders laid out the first<br />
roads and planted the first<br />
trees, St Michael’s has had<br />
at its heart the vision and<br />
dreams of our city and its<br />
children.<br />
Indeed, for 167 years,<br />
St Michael’s has been<br />
educating and nurturing<br />
the visionaries and<br />
dreamers who continue to<br />
shape our city and step<br />
out into the world beyond.<br />
For our young pupils have<br />
limitless potential to lead<br />
exciting and generous<br />
lives, and we have the<br />
responsibility to educate and inspire<br />
them, to encourage every child to<br />
flourish, in mind, body and spirit.<br />
St Michael’s is a prep school for girls<br />
and boys in Years 1-8. Our classes are<br />
small, fewer than 20 pupils, and our<br />
specialist teachers ensure each child is<br />
an individual, well known by staff and<br />
fellow pupils alike. For at the heart of<br />
St Michael’s are the essential values<br />
of Christian faith and good citizenship:<br />
respect, integrity, community, faith,<br />
hope and love.<br />
An independent school education<br />
at the primary level is a great gift<br />
and so traditional foundations in<br />
Counting the beat, an exploration of rhythm. Year 1<br />
and 2 Music.<br />
English and Maths are assured. This<br />
academic rigour then underpins our<br />
wider curriculums in Science, History,<br />
Geography and Spanish. IT literacy is<br />
taught, not assumed, and computer<br />
use is measured. We like teaching and<br />
talking to our pupils!<br />
A prep education offers balance.<br />
St Michael’s cultural and sports’<br />
programmes further develop each<br />
child’s foundation, as creativity and<br />
problem-solving come in many forms.<br />
Specialist art and music classes are<br />
enjoyed weekly. We have two choirs,<br />
and most pupils play at least one<br />
instrument or study speech and<br />
drama with one of our nine<br />
itinerant staff.<br />
Located in the heart of<br />
the city, on the banks of<br />
the Avon and the new City<br />
Promenade, our extended<br />
campus is spectacular:<br />
today, the Art Gallery;<br />
tomorrow, the Gardens;<br />
tennis later in Hagley Park.<br />
A recent school survey<br />
indicates that many of<br />
our parents now work in<br />
the thriving city centre,<br />
or Lincoln and Riccarton<br />
Road hubs but they live<br />
city-wide. They comment<br />
on the benefit of knowing<br />
their children are in<br />
school nearby and the<br />
convenience of popping<br />
in for an hour to catch<br />
a performance or watch<br />
a race. With the new<br />
central exchange only a<br />
block away, a number of<br />
children arrive by bus from<br />
all corners of the city.<br />
Is your child one of 15<br />
or 50? Is their classroom a<br />
calm, productive learning<br />
space or is the noise and<br />
movement unceasing? How<br />
much of the teacher’s attention does<br />
your child actually receive? There is<br />
an alternative.<br />
You and your child are warmly<br />
invited to discover for yourselves<br />
our purposeful, wholehearted and<br />
inclusive prep school. Our Open Day<br />
is Tuesday, <strong>November</strong> 14, or contact<br />

Collagen<br />
The Body’s Youth Protein<br />
Collagen is the primary protein in the<br />
body. It is a major component of skin,<br />
hair, nails, muscles, tendons, ligaments,<br />
joint cartilage, bones, gums, teeth, eyes,<br />
and blood vessels.<br />
In fact collagen is the primary structural<br />
component for all tissue in the body,<br />
providing the strength and resilience<br />
associated with youth, beauty and<br />
wellness. The body’s natural collagen<br />
production decreases with age resulting<br />
in many signs of aging, such as flaccid<br />
skin, wrinkles, ligament and tendon<br />
injuries and aching joints. Collagen<br />
supplementation is one of the most<br />
fundamental things a person can do to<br />
prevent premature aging and promote<br />
youthful vitality.<br />
NEOCELL are the industry leaders in<br />
research on collagen supplementation.<br />
Through advanced research they have<br />
perfected a way to hydrolyse collagen and<br />
effectively reduce its molecular weight this<br />
improving the absorption of collagen into<br />
the blood stream by over 90%.<br />
A clinical study on NEOCELL<br />
COLLAGEN has shown skin hydration to<br />
increase an average of 21% and up to 50%,<br />
with 92% of test subjects experiencing<br />
firmer, softer skin. Most people taking<br />
NEOCELL COLLAGEN reported seeing<br />
visible improvements within two weeks.<br />
Collagen supplementation provides<br />
the nutrients necessary to support the<br />
body’s collagen supply. It can help reduce<br />
fine lines and wrinkles and improve skin<br />
elasticity, support building of strong bones<br />

New research on Gingko<br />
Biloba excites researchers!<br />
For decades scientists believed brain<br />
damage with age, after a stroke or injury<br />
was irreversible and brain neurons could<br />
not be repaired. In more recent times,<br />
new research has shown that neurons<br />
can grow back with the right conditions<br />
and that a special extract of Gingko<br />
Biloba (EGb-761 or TEBONIN) has<br />
been clinically found to assist in this.<br />
The implications for stroke recovery are<br />
obvious, but researchers also know many<br />
of us suffer from undetected “microstrokes”<br />
that over a period of time slowly<br />
reduce our cognitive function. TEBONIN<br />
is prescribed worldwide as a natural<br />
supportive agent for a healthy brain and<br />
cognitive function. It supports healthy<br />
mental performance, concentration, focus,<br />
alertness, motor function and to help<br />
with many conditions including tinnitus<br />
(ringing and noise in the ears), vertigo<br />
and normal balance. TEBONIN improves<br />
micro-circulation and helps the blood<br />
flow reach those critical places it needs to<br />
get. It is a potent anti-oxidant and makes<br />
the red blood cells more pliable and<br />
capillary walls more flexible.<br />
TEBONIN is one of the most widely<br />
studied and researched herbal products in<br />
the world and is the only Ginkgo biloba<br />
extract manufactured via a patented<br />
multi-step extraction process. Each small<br />
tablet contains a highly concentrated<br />

50:1 extract to give you a therapeutic<br />
clinical dose without having to take a large<br />
amount of the herb. Of 25 Gingko biloba<br />
products on the market, and tested by a<br />
major medical journal, only TEBONIN<br />
passed all five of the test requirements.<br />
Ten brands didn’t meet any requirements<br />
and the rest didn’t pass more than three<br />
out of five requirements. TEBONIN is<br />
the only Gingko biloba extract shown<br />
to activated all areas of the brain and is<br />
considered the gold standard in Gingko.<br />
TEBONIN has been trusted by millions<br />
of consumers worldwide for over 30<br />
years with more than 8,000,000 tablets<br />
consumed each day.<br />
TEBONIN and further information<br />
is available from the Natural Health<br />
Advisers at Marshall’s Health & Natural<br />
Therapy in New Brighton. PH: 388-5757.<br />

Summerset<br />
at Avonhead<br />
Summerset at Avonhead is coming!<br />
We have purchased nine and a half hectares of land in the lovely suburb<br />
of Avonhead for our newest retirement village. Located on Hawthornden<br />
Road, the village location is close to shops, along with both Avonhead<br />
and Burnside Parks and transport links. With villages already located in<br />
Wigram and Casebrook, our village in Avonhead will be another great<br />
option for future residents.<br />
We are working towards a village which will provide around 240 homes<br />
including villas, cottages, apartments and serviced apartments. A village<br />
centre will offer fantastic recreational facilities, and a care centre will offer<br />
rest home and hospital-level care. Plus an award-winning Memory Care<br />
Centre will provide safe, apartment style living for people with dementia.<br />
Register your interest in our village by ordering an information pack today,<br />
and you will be the first to receive information and updates.<br />
