District Plan<br />

change<br />

receives<br />

little<br />

feedback<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-<br />

Harding<br />

LITTLE FEEDBACK has been<br />

given over a potential change to<br />

the District Plan which would<br />

help coastal residents struggling<br />

to get resource and building<br />

consents.<br />

The Department of the<br />

Prime Minister and Cabinet<br />

has released a survey asking<br />

if residents agree with a<br />

draft proposal to change the<br />

District Plan through Greater<br />

Christchurch Regeneration<br />

Minister Megan Woods.<br />

The changes would allow<br />

for Southshore, South New<br />

Brighton and Redcliffs<br />

properties in the High Flood<br />

Hazard Management Area to<br />

build or renovate houses, where<br />

it otherwise would have been<br />

near impossible.<br />

But as of last week, only 37<br />

submissions had been made on<br />

the proposal since <strong>November</strong> 9.<br />

The responses received from<br />

the survey will inform Dr<br />

Wood’s decision on whether to<br />

use her section 71 powers to<br />

change the policy in the District<br />

Plan. Christchurch Coastal<br />

Residents United group deputy<br />

chairman Warwick Schaffer said<br />

it takes time for people to get<br />

these things done.<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

Psychologist one step closer<br />

In Brief<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

ANOTHER STEP has been<br />

taken to help bring a disaster<br />

psychologist into Dallington<br />

to investigate post-earthquake<br />

issues.<br />

THe Coastal-Burwood<br />

Community Board held a<br />

seminar to discuss what needs<br />

to be done to bring the plan into<br />

fruition.<br />

It was decided the board’s<br />

community development<br />

adviser Natalie Dally will talk<br />

to volunteers<br />

and leaders in<br />

Dallington as<br />

well as areas<br />

including<br />

Southshore<br />

and Avondale<br />

to gauge<br />

key social<br />

Linda Stewart isolation<br />

issues.<br />

Board chairwoman Kim<br />

Money said the aim was to find<br />

out how the communities would<br />

like to be engaged in the process<br />

and what they felt would be the<br />

best approach.<br />

It is after the Dallington<br />

Community Trust asked<br />

for funding from the board to<br />

have a psychologist look at issues<br />

in the area and develop<br />

a wellness programme.<br />

The programme developed<br />

for Dallington could set a<br />

precedent for other isolated<br />

areas.<br />

Trustee and long-term<br />

resident David Collins said it is<br />

good the board is engaging with<br />

the community.<br />

“If they are able to highlight<br />

the areas for a disaster psychologist<br />

to concentrate on well that<br />

is also showing due diligence,”<br />

he said.<br />

<strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong> reported last<br />

month Australian disaster<br />

recovery expert and psychologist<br />

Dr Rob Gordon could be<br />

brought in to investigate.<br />

Trust chairwoman and board<br />

member Linda Stewart said a<br />

decision has not yet been made<br />

but it did “float some strategies”<br />

at the seminar.<br />

She said the board is open to<br />

different people who could be<br />

brought in and how the issue<br />

could be handled.<br />

But she said she was supportive<br />

of bringing Dr Gordon over<br />

as the Australians were “light<br />

years ahead” in terms of civil<br />

defence and disaster management.<br />

Ms Stewart said it is hoped<br />

key people in the community<br />

such as Avonside community<br />

centre co-ordinator Betty Chapman,<br />

church leaders, and Dallington<br />

trust members could be<br />

NEED: The<br />

Dallington<br />

Community<br />

Trust has asked<br />

for a disaster<br />

psychologist to<br />

be brought into<br />

the area to look<br />

at social isolation<br />

issues in the area.<br />

brought together to learn from<br />

Dr Gordon.<br />

“I don’t want to bring him<br />

backwards and forwards I want<br />

a oncer so we know how to do<br />

it,” Ms Stewart said.<br />

But Mr Collins said the trust<br />

has to bear in mind bringing in<br />

a psychologist will come out of<br />

ratepayer funding in the longrun.<br />

think a disaster psychologist<br />

could make a difference<br />

isolation issues postearthquake?<br />

month. The $100,000 revamp<br />

included the installation of two<br />

new mini-trampolines, spinning<br />

toys, seating, wind protection and<br />

McMaster & Heap<br />

Veterinary practice<br />

WHERE WE HAVE BEEN AND<br />

WHERE WE ARE HEADING…….<br />

McMaster & Heap Vets officially started<br />

nearly <strong>20</strong> years ago on 1st April 1999 (April<br />

Fools Day). Steve and I had wanted our<br />

own Practice because we wanted to work<br />

together to create something special and<br />

because we wanted to be present at all our<br />

sons sports fixtures and school events and<br />

not miss out on a single thing they were<br />

doing. I grew up with parents that showed<br />

up to everything which I loved so I wanted<br />

our boys to experience that childhood.<br />

We had a choice of three Practices to buy,<br />

and looking back definitely made the right<br />

choice. Little did we know it was the start of<br />

something really great.<br />

The initial Practice was<br />

an old converted house<br />

situated in our present<br />

day carpark. It was then<br />

named Rozens Vet Clinic.<br />

It was small but worked<br />

okay initially until we grew<br />

and we were constantly<br />

running out of cages to<br />

house all our patients. Cats<br />

were in cages in the vets<br />

office and dogs tied up in<br />

the treatment room. Our<br />

very first day Steve and I<br />

worked 12 hours straight.<br />

Our first clients were<br />

people we still see now<br />

almost <strong>20</strong> years later,<br />

with their children and<br />

grandchildren now clients<br />

of ours. We had just three nurses initially who<br />

worked part time hours. We operated on a<br />

card system and were forever losing cards<br />

thanks to a dyslexic nurse who didn’t know<br />

she was dyslexic. Every time it rained our<br />

entire carpark flooded and we had families of<br />

ducks taking up residence. Our cattery was<br />

in the garage. Our sterile surgery was the<br />

size of a bathroom and we processed xrays<br />

in the toilet. There was no noise control or<br />

ventilation – pet hates of Steve’s. Our two<br />

young sons, Connor (now 21) and Dylan<br />

(now 18) were often seen playing Thomas<br />

the Tank engine trains in the waiting room<br />

entertaining the clients. We were a family<br />

and we absolutely loved it. Our boys only<br />

have fond memories of our Practice and our<br />

early days starting out.<br />

We worked hard, every weekend in fact, and<br />

fairly quickly built up a strong loyal following<br />

of clients. Steve seeing Ophthalmology<br />

referrals also increased clients through our<br />

doors. We saw our clients out of hours, in<br />

weekends and clients without appointments<br />

could just walk in without much of a wait. We<br />

loved solving peoples problems and treating<br />

their pets and we felt privileged to be in the<br />

position we were – we made a real difference<br />

and we got huge satisfaction from doing so.<br />

Open 7 days<br />

e. mcmasterandheap@yahoo.co.nz<br />

www.mcmasterheap.co.nz<br />

We both knew this was what we were meant<br />

to be doing. I remember being a three year<br />

old and only ever wanting to Practice as a<br />

vet. I grew up on a small farm in Halswell<br />

surrounded by all sorts of animals and I<br />

ended up with my own flock of pet lambs.<br />

My dads best friend was Dave Marshall<br />

(Marshall and Pringle Vets) and he was very<br />

influential at fostering my love and passion<br />

for animals from a very early age. From age<br />

five I saw Practice with Dave and never once<br />

thought about being anything else.<br />

We realised our clinic was outgrowing us<br />

fast so as soon as the house next door<br />

came up for sale we<br />

purchased it. We moved<br />

into our current building<br />

in <strong>20</strong>08 and its been a<br />

wonderful practice to<br />

work in – spacious, light,<br />

well ventilated and well<br />

designed. It has allowed<br />

us to treat and care for<br />

patients properly, see a<br />

lot more patients and<br />

attract quality staff. We<br />

have grown a lot since<br />

those early days with<br />

seven vets, 13 nursing<br />

staff and one practice<br />

manager.<br />

So this comes to an<br />

exciting piece of news.<br />

We have just been<br />

granted council consent<br />

to add a large new addition to our existing<br />

Practice, allowing us to provide more<br />

veterinary services and have more room to<br />

work in. Believe it or not we are running out<br />

of consult rooms, operating theatres and<br />

dog hospitalisation facilities. The proposed<br />

building is being tendered now and should<br />

start work early next year.<br />

We feel we have a very good reputation for<br />

providing excellent professional services<br />

and care to patients in our community. We<br />

are never complacent and always strive<br />

to be better and do things differently. We<br />

always want to welcome people through our<br />

doors because we truly believe we will help<br />

them and their pets. We care about all our<br />

people. We will always be a privately owned<br />

family business providing the best care and<br />

treatment possible, excellent communication,<br />

flexibility and understanding of our clients<br />

situation and show kindness and respect to<br />

pets and people.<br />

We firmly believe if you GIVE lots you receive<br />

LOTS.<br />

We will keep you posted on all the new<br />

exciting developments.<br />

McMaster & Heap<br />

District Plan change<br />

receives little feedback<br />

•From page 1<br />

Christchurch Coastal<br />

Residents United group<br />

deputy chairman Warwick<br />

Schaffer said it takes time<br />

for people to get these<br />

things done as they have<br />

busy lives.<br />

“Until groups<br />

get behind and<br />

go do this and<br />

remind people a<br />

few times, probably<br />

not much<br />

happens,” he<br />

said.<br />

Mr Schaffer<br />

said while it is a<br />

David East<br />

good thing the public consultation<br />

is on a tight time<br />

line, it may mean it will<br />

receive less feedback.<br />

But he said the issue of<br />

the omitted clause in the<br />

plan needs to be corrected.<br />

“I hope most people<br />

would expect that to happen<br />

and want that to happen,”<br />

he said.<br />

City councillor David<br />

East said he would be<br />

encouraging people to<br />

support the changes and<br />

is hopeful they will go<br />

through before Christmas.<br />

“Really this whole<br />

process is just correcting<br />

an injustice in an<br />

unfair situation imposed<br />

on these people,”<br />

he said.<br />

It comes after Cr East<br />

apologised for accusing<br />

the city council staff of<br />

tampering with the District<br />

Plan.<br />

The code of conduct<br />

complaint was against Cr<br />

East, Coastal-Burwood<br />

Community Board chairwoman<br />

Kim Money,<br />

feedback has<br />

been received<br />

deputy chairman Tim<br />

Sintes and Linwood-Central-Heathcote<br />

Community<br />

Board member Darrell<br />

Latham. Cr East said he is<br />

negotiating with the city<br />

council on resolving the issue<br />

without going to a code<br />

of conduct hearing.<br />

The survey will close on<br />

<strong>November</strong> 26. Dr Woods<br />

will then have 30 days to<br />

make her decision.<br />

Demolition starts at North Avon church<br />

New facility<br />

to be built<br />

early next year<br />

• By Louis Day<br />

DEMOLITION OF the North<br />

Avon Baptist Church is under<br />

way and construction of a new<br />

church and community facility<br />

is expected to start early next<br />

year.<br />

The church building on 101<br />

North Avon Rd was opened in<br />

1952 and was damaged in the<br />

February 22, <strong>20</strong>11, earthquake.<br />

Churchgoers said their final<br />

goodbyes to the building on<br />

<strong>November</strong> 4 before demolition<br />

got under way last week.<br />

Delta Community Support<br />

Trust services co-ordinator Ian<br />

Burn said the church was in<br />

desperate need of a rebuild.<br />

“The floor is on a slope<br />

so it can only be used in an<br />

auditorium context. You can’t<br />

play basketball on it, you can’t<br />

host dance parties on it. There’s<br />

dirty big cracks down the side<br />

of the building and it has a<br />

restricted use classification from<br />

the council.”<br />

Mr Burn said the new<br />

facility will be able to better<br />

accommodate the needs of<br />

PROGRESS: An artist’s impression of the new North Avon<br />

Baptist Church and community facility, which will be replace<br />

the old church building (right) after it is being demolished.<br />

the community and could be<br />

up and running as early as<br />

<strong>November</strong> next year.<br />

“The current church does<br />

have a kitchen but it is a fairly<br />

typical church kitchen. As a<br />

trust, we feed two and a half<br />

thousand people each year with<br />

low incomes and disadvantages.<br />

We are rebuilding the facility<br />

with that wider community in<br />

mind rather than just a church<br />

building.”<br />

The new facility will have<br />

a worship space, a cafe and a<br />

range of community spaces.<br />

Delta Community House,<br />

which sits next to North Avon<br />

Baptist Church, will also be<br />

demolished once the new<br />

facility is finished. The Crossway<br />

Community Church will build<br />

its new church facility on the<br />

site once it has been cleared.<br />

Mr Burn said Crossway’s<br />

facility would be bigger than its<br />

previous one and would include<br />

an area for the community to<br />

play basketball.<br />

The two new buildings will be<br />

merged into one and will share<br />

a courtyard with a children’s<br />

playground.<br />

Mr Burn said church services<br />

would continue at Delta Community<br />

House while North<br />

Avon Baptist Church was<br />

demolished.<br />

Sustainability key<br />

to organic farming<br />

There’s something for<br />

everyone in the realm of<br />

organic farming but as far<br />

as Bill Martin is concerned,<br />

it’s all about sustainability.<br />

The Training College<br />

Manager at Lincoln<br />

University’s Biological<br />

Husbandry Unit Organics<br />

Trust (BHU) is happy to see<br />

a surge in enthusiasm for<br />

organic food production<br />

as younger generations<br />

become more aware of<br />

environmental concerns.<br />

He says the growing<br />

popularity of organic<br />

production in recent years<br />

means that graduates are<br />

now taking what they have<br />

learned into a broader<br />

range of sectors.<br />

“It’s not just about<br />

growing, wholesaling<br />

and retailing food anymore. They’re<br />

going into schools and teaching primary<br />

and secondary schoolers about the<br />

importance of sustainable farming and<br />

gardening and really starting to embed the<br />

philosophy into the education system.”<br />

As far as conventional agricultural<br />

practices are concerned, he says farmers<br />

should be encouraged to optimise their<br />

production, rather than maximise it at the<br />

expense of the environment.<br />

“We need to change our agricultural<br />

paradigm and re-evaluate our priorities.”<br />

Mr Martin says those interested in a<br />

career in organics should enrol in the<br />

one-year Diploma in Agri-Food Production<br />

course, which is open to students either<br />

with or without university entrance.<br />

Introduced last year, it includes Tikanga<br />

and Mahinga Kai components and can<br />

lead to employment in organic primary<br />

production or other sectors related<br />

to organics, especially education and<br />

hospitality.<br />

“The course offers a good grounding<br />

in the principles of organic agriculture,<br />

teaching the philosophies and histories<br />

of organics and providing practical<br />

knowledge of how they are applied,” Mr<br />

Martin says.<br />

Apply now for the Diploma in Organic<br />

Agri-Food Production and begin studying<br />

First exhibition for young artist<br />

•From page 1<br />

The Christchurch Rudolf<br />

Steiner School student<br />

spent a year writing the<br />

book and illustrating<br />

images of castles and<br />

dragons on about <strong>20</strong> A3<br />

sized pages. Back then she<br />

was a pupil at the former<br />

Discovery One School.<br />

The book was published by<br />

Kalika’s mother and artist<br />

Lynda Bell.<br />

While Pounamu has<br />

never travelled outside<br />

of the country, she loves<br />

the idea of experiencing<br />

different cultures and the<br />

world.<br />

“I cannot wait to begin<br />

to travel and just live<br />

my life to the fullest.<br />

I’m most curious about<br />

Africa because I would<br />

love to help the people<br />

and families there and<br />

experience the beautiful<br />

landscapes and surf of the<br />

ocean,” she said.<br />

Having a strong<br />

passion for surfing and the<br />

sea, Pounamu said it made<br />

sense to hold her<br />

first exhibition near the<br />

beach.<br />

“I love art because it<br />

brings life and colour into<br />

the world, it expresses your<br />

passions and what you<br />

love on paper or a canvas,”<br />

Bus concerns voiced<br />

• By Ashleigh Monk<br />

“THE STAFF and residents use<br />

the bus/and if it goes, they’re<br />

bound to cuss/what a loss for all<br />

of us/if the bus should go.”<br />

Recited to the tune of The<br />

Wheels on the Bus, these lyrics<br />

were sung by residents of Diana<br />

Isaac Retirement Village to<br />

Environment Canterbury.<br />

The residents have been<br />

fighting since March to have the<br />

No 44 bus stop at their village<br />

after Environment Canterbury<br />

decided to re-route the Orbiter<br />

which previously ran there.<br />

ECan said last month it would<br />

not re-route the No 44 through<br />

some residential streets, leaving<br />

the nearest bus stop 1km away.<br />

Representatives met with the<br />

residents on Wednesday to hear<br />

their concerns over the decision.<br />

ECan senior manager public<br />

transport Stewart Gibbon said<br />

was “very pleased” with the<br />

entertaining song.<br />

“It was very well executed,<br />

and great to see the residents<br />

had a sense of humour, balanced<br />

with their real sense of concern<br />

and advocacy to retain a public<br />

transport link.”<br />

He said ECan would continue<br />

to work with residents to find a<br />

solution for the “mid and longterm.”<br />

Resident Murray Lennox said<br />

he wrote the “little ditty” in an<br />

effort to keep the meeting light<br />

and friendly.<br />

“I’ve written a number of<br />

poems. It’s become a traditional<br />

thing here on a Friday that if I<br />

turn up to morning tea without<br />

a poem then they’re asking questions,”<br />

he said.<br />

“It was just to keep the mood<br />

light and bring a bit of hilarity<br />

to it.”<br />

He said the decision not to reroute<br />

the No 44 left residents and<br />

staff at the rest home “stranded.”<br />

“A lot of us are still mobile,<br />

but the day will come for a lot<br />

of folks here where we will no<br />

longer be able to get about as we<br />

used to.”<br />

He said the residents had come<br />

up with options which were<br />

presented to ECan, including<br />

installing a turning bay on<br />

Philpotts Rd for the No 44,<br />

and implementing a small bus<br />

which could operate on an “ad<br />

hock basis” to service the rest<br />

home.<br />

“They’re still exploring those<br />

options, they have to discuss that<br />

with city council and planning.<br />

We just have to get<br />

through all this red tape,” he<br />

said.<br />

“One of our residents who is in<br />

his 90s asked if while they were<br />

trying to work those things out,<br />

why couldn’t they just bring the<br />

Orbiter down to Innes Rd and<br />

back up along Philpotts Rd until<br />

they have worked out what else<br />

they can do . . . there was hearty<br />

approval from the residents, I<br />

can tell you.”<br />

“I went over and obviously he<br />

choked on something. We put<br />

“There was no pulse<br />

Mrs Hall said an airway was<br />

it was taken out and the man<br />

vomited out an apricot.<br />

She said it all happened so<br />

3D Denture system<br />

- First to introduce suction dentures to New<br />

- The only state-of-the-art laboratory of its<br />

John Batchelor, founder and owner of<br />

Duchenne, has long been at the forefront<br />

of this industry, and has been working with<br />

international software companies such as<br />

3Shape to develop cutting-edge technology<br />

since <strong>20</strong>12.<br />

Now, once again, Duchenne are excited<br />

to be bringing the latest advances in 3D<br />

Denture Technology to the South Island.<br />

Over the past three years there have been<br />

major breakthroughs in printing and<br />

milling dental technology, which allow<br />

us to 3D print a preliminary denture that<br />

patients can literally take home and try.<br />

Patients are more involved in the process<br />

and can see their dentures on screen<br />

before they are made. This technology also<br />

produces a final denture that is superior to<br />

anything that has come before.<br />

They are currently the only company in<br />

the South Island to use this process – a<br />

significant step ahead as it offers superior<br />

fit and strength. A denture produced on<br />

the PM7, when used in conjunction with<br />

Dr Abe’s Suction Effective Mandibular<br />

technique, produces the most comfortable<br />

and high performance denture currently<br />

available.<br />

John Batchelor is one of only 35 trainers<br />

CHRISTMAS CHEER: Celebration Centre Church’s Bridget Kramer, Gregg<br />

LeRoux, Lizzy Kramer and Abraham Fonmoa are helping make Christmas<br />

brighter by giving out as many food parcels as possible to families in need.<br />

Food parcels to brighten<br />

families’ Christmas<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-<br />

Harding<br />

A CHURCH in Wainoni<br />

is planning to deliver<br />

as many food parcels as<br />

possible this year to help<br />

make Christmas a little<br />

brighter for struggling<br />

families in the east.<br />

The Celebration Centre<br />

Church is collecting food<br />

parcels as part of its annual<br />

“Giving Living” project<br />

to help families living in<br />

genuine hardship.<br />

The church’s pastoral<br />

team member Gregg Le<br />

Roux said it is one of the<br />

ways it can align with what<br />

is a very real need in the<br />

community.<br />

“We hear all about the<br />

hardship that we know is<br />

in families around and in<br />

our communities . . . as<br />

a church we believe that<br />

giving and generosity to<br />

others is and should be a<br />

lifestyle and is just part of<br />

who we are,” he said.<br />

TWO carefully<br />

handcrafted fales,<br />

modelled on traditional<br />

Pasifika buildings, were<br />

delivered to Samoan<br />

pre-schools in Linwood<br />

and Aranui recently.<br />

And they have received<br />

positive feedback from the<br />

most important recipients<br />

– the children.<br />

Carpentry students from<br />

the Ara Institute of Canterbury’s<br />

Dual Enrolment<br />

programme built the two<br />

structures over about five<br />

months while attending<br />

the tertiary institute one<br />

day a week.<br />

Māori trades training<br />

students helped to deliver<br />

the fales to Mapusaga Fou<br />

Pre School in Linwood and<br />

Tino e Tasi Pre School in<br />

Aranui.<br />

Children and teachers<br />

were delighted with the<br />

gifts.<br />

The trades students benefited<br />

from practising their<br />

skills building the fales and<br />

The church finds out<br />

about families in need<br />

through networks including<br />

the three community<br />

pre-schools it runs, Mums<br />

& Bubs groups and youth<br />

groups.<br />

The project has been<br />

running annually for about<br />

six years and anyone can<br />

nominate a family they<br />

believe would benefit.<br />

It started after Mr Le<br />

Roux and his wife ran a<br />

leadership programme in<br />

the church and the project<br />

was formed as part of the<br />

course’s work.<br />

Last year the church<br />

delivered food parcels to<br />

400 families in need.<br />

Mr Le Roux said the<br />

church will do everything<br />

it can to get as many food<br />

parcels as possible.<br />

“If we get 400 food<br />

parcels again I would say<br />

fantastic, if we get more<br />

than that then great,” he<br />

said.<br />

Haeata Community College<br />

and other schools in<br />

the area will be involved in<br />

the project.<br />

Mr Le Roux said his understanding<br />

is the schools<br />

will encourage their families<br />

to contribute if they<br />

can and then nominate<br />

and distribute food parcels<br />

to those in need.<br />

“While a food parcel is<br />

not everything, it helps to<br />

probably take off the pressure<br />

in a lot of other areas<br />

that are demanding with<br />

people,” Mr Le Roux said.<br />

The food parcels will be<br />

delivered by December 16.<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

Bid to conserve water over summer<br />

THE CITY council has warned<br />

too much water use this summer<br />

could slow down its well-head<br />

upgrade work and lead to water<br />

shortages and a reduced capacity<br />

to fight fires.<br />

As the temperature climbs,<br />

the city council is encouraging<br />

residents to start doing their<br />

bit to conserve water and help<br />

reduce demand on the district’s<br />

water supply network.<br />

Water Supply Improvement<br />

Programme manager Helen<br />

Beaumont said the issue wasn’t<br />

the amount of water available or<br />

the size of the supply network,<br />

but rather the network’s ability to<br />

deliver water when usage spiked.<br />

“When demand for water<br />

is high, we can only supply so<br />

much through the network. The<br />

pumps, pipes and reservoirs can<br />

only deliver a certain amount<br />

of water at any one time, and if<br />

people use too much while we<br />

have wells off-line for upgrades,<br />

there could be a pressure loss<br />

in the system, shortages, or not<br />

enough to fight fires.<br />

“Ninety-five per cent of the<br />

time, we only need to use about<br />

half of the wells and pump<br />

stations available in the network.<br />

It’s only a problem at times<br />

during summer, when demand<br />

for water is at its highest.”<br />

SAVE: The city council is encouraging hand-held watering only for lawns and gardens on<br />

alternate days between 9pm and 7am in a bid to save water. (Right) – The new water dial found<br />

at ccc.govt.nz/wateruse shows Christchurch’s residential water use for the previous day.<br />

Ms Beaumont said the district’s<br />

water use was already higher<br />

than this time last year so it<br />

was important people got the<br />

message now.<br />

“We need people to come on<br />

board with the campaign to<br />

conserve our water. We don’t<br />

want to impose restrictions, we<br />

want to give people a chance to<br />

change their thinking and make<br />

some small changes now to their<br />

water usage.<br />

As part of its conservation<br />

campaign, the city council has<br />

created an online water dial –<br />

available at ccc.govt.nz/wateruse<br />

– which shows the city’s daily<br />

water usage against the target for<br />

summer.<br />

The city council is encouraging<br />

hand-held watering only for<br />

lawns and gardens on alternate<br />

days between 9pm and 7am,<br />

reducing laundry loads, and<br />

keeping personal showers to<br />

5min.<br />

Ms Beaumont said water usage<br />

this summer would have a big<br />

impact on the city council’s<br />

ability to upgrade its well-heads<br />

and end chlorination sooner.<br />

“We can only work on well<br />

heads when they’re not in use. So<br />

the less water used this summer,<br />

the faster we can upgrade the<br />

well heads and the sooner we<br />

can end water chlorination in<br />

Christchurch.”<br />

What’s your view on the<br />

Residential Unit Overlay<br />

District Plan Changes<br />

Section 71 Proposal?<br />

Let us know your views on the Proposal to use section 71 of the Greater<br />

Christchurch Regeneration Act <strong>20</strong>16 to make amendments to the<br />

Christchurch District Plan.<br />

The amendments would:<br />

• provide clarity and support to areas (known as the Residential Unit<br />

Overlay) where the risk of flooding is predominantly from sea level rise<br />

• permit people with vacant sites (where houses have been demolished<br />

since the earthquakes) in the Residential Unit Overlay to rebuild<br />

houses of a similar size to what was there without requiring a resource<br />

consent.<br />

The Proposal, developed by Christchurch City Council, has been<br />

submitted to the Minister for Greater Christchurch Regeneration who is<br />

inviting your views.<br />

Anyone can make a written comment, which must be received by<br />

5.00pm, Monday, 26 <strong>November</strong> <strong>20</strong>18.<br />

The Proposal can be viewed with more information, and written<br />

comments made online at: www.dpmc.govt.nz/residential-unit-overlay<br />

Also, the Proposal can be viewed and written comment forms are<br />

available at Christchurch City Council service centres and libraries, and<br />

the main office of Selwyn and Waimakariri District Councils during normal<br />

business hours.<br />

MAIREHAU<br />

HIGH SCHOOL<br />

ENCOURAGING EXCELLENCE IN OUR COMMUNITY<br />

Good Citizenship Award.<br />

The Avon Shirley Masonic Lodge<br />

Good Citizenship Award.<br />

This is a highly prized award, presented to two of our senior students<br />

that recognize outstanding service to the school.<br />

The Lodge annually presents this Award to two students who, on recommendations of staff, best<br />

exemplify the qualities of good citizenship. To be selected for the Citizenship Award a student<br />

has consistently demonstrated the school values of Challenge, Achievement, Responsibility and<br />

Empathy through actions which include service and leadership.<br />

staff members co-lead our <strong>20</strong>18 Senior Student Executive team. This often meant needing to<br />

use tact and a positive attitude to instil in the team, as well as the feeling of being listened to,<br />

valued and supported. Niko has organised a number of events and his given freely of his freely to<br />

assist in the organisation of school music concerts and tours up and down the South Island. Niko<br />

willingly mentors younger musicians and show younger students the skills needed to put on a<br />

lighting and sound show.<br />

In Niko’s own community he provides sound and lighting expertise at a number of events,<br />

including weekly church services and the Parklands ‘Christmas in the Park’.<br />

Niko will be remembered for his significant service to the school community. We wish Niko all the<br />

best for his future success as he prepares for an engineering degree at University of Canterbury.<br />

Our two award winners have decided that the generous gift of $500 from the Lodge will go to<br />

FREESET, a global charity for women who have very limited employment opportunities.<br />

Our first recipient of this prestigious<br />

award is Georgia List:<br />

Georgia is an exemplary role model<br />

for other students needing learning<br />

assistance, demonstrating that with<br />

support, focus and determination,<br />

anything and everything is possible.<br />

Her subject strengths are Hauora<br />

(Health) and Geography. Georgia has<br />

been a role model for other students<br />

in a number of class activities, notably<br />

in performance and sport. She has<br />

participated in our school productions<br />

and due to her commitment and<br />

reliability, has developed into a valued<br />

and respected cast member. Her<br />

outstanding results as a swimming<br />

star for Special Olympics have been<br />

regularly noted at our annual Colours<br />

Awards Assembly.<br />

Georgia demonstrates service in many<br />

ways around the school including<br />

regular set up of lunchtime activities for our students. She has taken on a Peer Support Leadership<br />

role, demonstrating admirable empathy and tautoko (support) for Year 9 supported learning<br />

students. Georgia also offers her help in the library and is forever keen to learn new skills. She is<br />

focused and has grown in confidence by encouraging students to use our library for different<br />

activities from study to board games. A consistent helper at Open Evening, Report Evening and<br />

events which require students to represent the school with pride and respect.<br />

Outside of school Georgia volunteers as a support person for disabled young people during the<br />

holidays.<br />

Georgia is a confident young woman who completes tasks with humility, without realising just<br />

how much of an inspiration and role she is to others. We wish Georgia all the best in her future<br />

endeavours as she prepares for an early childcare course at Vision College.<br />

Our second recipient of this prestigious<br />

award is Niko Smith:<br />

Niko is described by staff as intelligent,<br />

demonstrates respect, warmth and maturity<br />

in all his interactions with adults and peers<br />

alike. Niko has a very strong work ethic, is<br />

generous with his time and is always ready<br />

and willing to go that extra kilometre for<br />

anyone that asks.<br />

Niko has organised and provided sound<br />

and lighting technology expertise for every<br />

‘Sadness and joy’ at Chisnallwood<br />

Chisnallwood<br />

Intermediate<br />

music<br />

programme<br />

co-ordinator<br />

Judith<br />

Bell writes<br />

about the<br />

loss of Gavin Britt who<br />

made traditional Maori<br />

instruments for the school<br />

THIS MONTH Chisnallwood<br />

music has had joy and sadness.<br />

As I write this, we mourn<br />

the loss of Gavin Britt, a longstanding<br />

friend of the school,<br />

maker of taonga pūoro (Maori<br />

instruments) and all the many,<br />

wonderful carvings which are<br />

rich in local history.<br />

He never stopped championing<br />

for their use in education and<br />

we are grateful for the influence<br />

he had, and for the passion and<br />

knowledge he shared.<br />

Our jazz and Irish bands<br />

have been privileged to get<br />

opportunities to engage in the<br />

community frequently this term<br />

and local performances include<br />

playing for the Parkland’s Ladies<br />

group, Parkland’s Christmas<br />

in the Park, New Brighton<br />

Christmas Parade, Alpine View<br />

and Diana Isaac retirement<br />

villages, the Eastern Schools<br />

Rotary Honour Roll dinner and<br />

at Gavin’s funeral.<br />

A rock band, Ricochet, will be<br />

performing at the Rawhiti School<br />

Fair and all our rock and other<br />

bands had a celebration last week<br />

at the pop-up venue, steered by<br />

ex-Chisnallwood pupil Michael<br />

Bell, Little Andromeda in<br />

Gloucester St.<br />

Our band celebrations this<br />

year have included two jazz<br />

bands achieving gold and<br />

silver at the high school event<br />

Jazzquest, seven bands taking<br />

part in Rockquest and Bandquest<br />

with seven Bandquest awards,<br />

one of them at a national level.<br />

Meanwhile, our orchestra<br />

has been part of the secondary<br />

schools’ orchestra festival, and<br />

the choir part of both the voices<br />

festival and the primary schools’<br />

music festival.<br />

Other musical high<br />

points this year have included<br />

the jazz and Irish band tour<br />

to the steam punk festival,<br />

the strum strike blow festival,<br />

the big band festival and the<br />

cultural festival, as well as our<br />

school production in term<br />

three. The jazz band has also<br />

been invited to take part at a<br />

summer youth festival in China<br />

next year and will be found<br />

down town this term as part of<br />

the City Promenade opening<br />

on <strong>November</strong> 25 and the Santa<br />

Parade on December 8.<br />

JONES, LEE MALZARD<br />

PHOTOGRAPHY<br />

Readers respond to an<br />

article on the Prestons<br />

subdivision speed limit<br />

being lowered to 40km/h<br />

Russell Parnell – My wife<br />

and I are at a loss as to why the<br />

city council even bothered to ask<br />

residents in the subdivision their<br />

opinion on changing<br />

the limit to 40km/h<br />

or leaving it as is at<br />

50km/h when it seems<br />

painfully clear that the<br />

city councillors were<br />

hell bent of changing<br />

the subdivision speed<br />

limit to 40km/h, regardless of<br />

any residents views.<br />

Tim Sintes’ comment that the<br />

streets tend to make people drive<br />

at a slower rate is exactly correct.<br />

Roads other than the two main<br />

thoroughfares, Te Rito St and Te<br />

Korari St, are narrower so selfregulating<br />

in the speed.<br />

Travelling along the two main<br />

wider roads as noted above,<br />

vision for drivers is noticeably<br />

clearer being of a more open<br />

view, but again self-regulating in<br />

speeds. From our driving along<br />

Te Rito and Te Korari Sts many<br />

times to maintain land<br />

or view housing, we<br />

have never encountered<br />

any dangerous or<br />

potentially dangerous<br />

situations. In fact all<br />

drivers, including the<br />

many operating trade<br />

vehicles, treat other road users<br />

with respect in slowing as<br />

required. To change the above<br />

mentioned two streets to 40km/h<br />

in particular, could prove to be<br />

worse than simply leaving them<br />

as is at 50km/h. Frustration<br />

could result from road users<br />

not regularly travelling through<br />

the subdivision and thus, for<br />

example, could pass a slower<br />

than 40km/h vehicle unsafely.<br />

Some drivers always travel less<br />

than a speed limit wherever they<br />

are, so at the limit of 40km/h,<br />

a driver could be down to<br />

30km/h. The most ironic thing<br />

SAFETY:<br />

Speed<br />

limits<br />

at the<br />

Prestons<br />

subdivision<br />

will be<br />

changed<br />

to 40km/h.<br />

of changing the speed limit to<br />

40km/h, spending lots of money<br />

initially with ongoing costs when<br />

not wanted by the majority, is<br />

why pick on that area in the<br />

first place? We currently live in<br />

Mairehau Rd, a 50km/h area,<br />

which is more like a 60km/h<br />

to in excess of a 100km/h road.<br />

There has been some bad crashes<br />

over time – one recently near<br />

Burwood Hospital and not<br />

once have we seen a mobile<br />

speed camera vehicle, police<br />

checkpoint set up, or any form<br />

of policing speeds. Police car<br />

speeds (car chases or call-outs)<br />

in particular along Mairehau Rd<br />

are frighteningly and excessively<br />

fast most times day or night, the<br />

latter the worst times.<br />

So it is basically unbelievable<br />

Prestons has been singled out<br />

and chosen for quote “a bit of an<br />

experiment.” Comments would<br />

be welcomed.<br />

Sally Walker – 50km/h<br />

is totally adequate. Would the<br />

city council’s 40km/h include<br />

Prestons Rd? Please outline the<br />

route that the change would<br />

affect. This would have a significant<br />

bearing on the decision.<br />

FOCUS ON HEALTH<br />

Grape seeds shown<br />

to have remarkable<br />

health benefits!<br />

According to researchers grape seeds may<br />

hold the potential to treat and prevent many<br />

devastating disorders. The seeds have been<br />

found to contain many powerful antioxidant<br />

that have been shown to support the natural<br />

healing process and even slow the aging<br />

process.<br />

Grape Seed Extract (GSE) has been shown<br />

to reduce inflammation, pain, increase<br />

cell energy, protect protein structures and<br />

increase collagen production. The powerful<br />

antioxidants can tone and strengthen the<br />

blood vessels, improve blood flow, making it<br />

valuable for circulatory disorders of all kinds,<br />

including varicose veins, haemorrhoids,<br />

hardening of the arteries and impaired<br />

blood flow to the brain. It is excellent for<br />

most skin conditions with many noticing<br />

the skin becomes smoother.<br />

GSE offers a natural alternative for many<br />

people with hypertension. (High Blood<br />

Pressure) Higher B/P puts more stress<br />

on organs and can lead to atherosclerosis<br />

(hardening of the arteries) and increased<br />

risk of heart disease and strokes.<br />

Recent studies on people with elevated<br />

B/P found GSE to significantly lower B/P but<br />

with no effect on people with normal B/P.<br />

Animal studies have shown GSE to improve<br />

heart function, reduce damage caused by<br />

heart attacks and prevent arterial plaque.<br />

A growing number of studies show that<br />

GSE has powerful anticancer properties, can<br />

help balance blood sugar, improve arthritis<br />

and protect brain cells. It may prove vital<br />

in the treatment of brain disorders like<br />

Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease.<br />

Numerous studies on GSE show it can<br />

help support our good health and prevent<br />

many degenerative diseases.<br />

Collagen<br />

The Body’s Youth Protein<br />

Collagen is the primary<br />

protein in the body. It is a<br />

major component of skin,<br />

hair, nails, muscles, tendons,<br />

ligaments, joint cartilage,<br />

bones, gums, teeth, eyes, and<br />

blood vessels.<br />

In fact collagen is<br />

the primary structural<br />

component for all tissue in the<br />

body, providing the strength<br />

and resilience associated with<br />

youth, beauty and wellness.<br />

The body’s natural collagen<br />

production decreases with age resulting in<br />

many signs of aging, such as flaccid skin,<br />

wrinkles, ligament and tendon injuries and<br />

aching joints. Collagen supplementation<br />

is one of the most fundamental things a<br />

person can do to prevent premature aging<br />

and promote 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 the<br />

nutrients necessary to support the body’s<br />

collagen supply. It can help reduce fine lines<br />

and wrinkles and improve skin elasticity,<br />

support building of strong bones and teeth,<br />

strengthen the nails and hair, and is vital for<br />

muscle growth, It also assists weight loss by<br />

helping burn fat for energy, promotes wound<br />

healing by supporting the regeneration of<br />

healthy tissue as well as help support overall<br />

health.<br />

Protect your face this Summer<br />

With Summer here, dehydrated skin is<br />

depleting your face of its moisture and<br />

youthful glow.<br />

Plus, with the high levels of chlorination in<br />

the city water, skin damage has taken place<br />

even though the levels of chlorine are being<br />

lowered. It doesn’t matter what age a person<br />

is, the short-term effect on the body’s skin<br />

has been harmful especially on the face<br />

which can tremendously benefit from the<br />

ADURO LED Light Therapy machine.<br />

NASA uses LED light therapy to heal<br />

wounds in space and on earth, imagine what<br />

it can do for your skin.<br />

imbalance and can be very painful and<br />

uncomfortable.<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 <strong>20</strong>15, “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 />

<strong>20</strong> 1, earthquake.<br />

The removal o funding<br />

prompted community board<br />

chairwoman Ali Jones to threaten<br />

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

in the ditch” project.<br />

Ms Jone said the board’s role<br />

is to represen the community,<br />

and by gathering signatures from<br />

residents, it was fulfi ling that<br />

role.<br />

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

board is to represent and act<br />

as advocate for the interests of its<br />

community and this is what we<br />

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

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

Cave Rock<br />

Apartments’<br />

owners<br />

expect EQC<br />

sign-off<br />

this week<br />

• By Sarla Donovan<br />

THE OWNERS of Sumner’s Cave<br />

Rock Apartments ar expecting the<br />

Earthquake Commi sion to sign-off<br />

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

Body corporate chairman Mike<br />

White said the group had gone<br />

into mediation with IAG and EQC<br />

on February <strong>20</strong>, 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 />

<strong>20</strong> 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, <strong>20</strong> 1,<br />

earthquakes and were demolished in<br />

late <strong>20</strong>12. In <strong>20</strong>16, IAG’s offer of the<br />

difference betw en indemnity value,<br />

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

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

corporate.<br />

The mediation agr ement<br />

prevented Mr White from disclosing<br />

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

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

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

earlier.”<br />

A WOOLSTON butcher proved<br />

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

international competition.<br />

New World Fe ry Rd butcher<br />

Jeremy Garth and his team, the<br />

Pure South Sharp Blacks, recently<br />

came second a the World<br />

Butchers’ Cha lenge in Northern<br />

Ireland.<br />

It was the firs time Mr Garth<br />

had competed in the cha lenge<br />

and he was “rea ly proud” of<br />

how the team performed.<br />

“We produced some top quality<br />

products and came away<br />

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

ha py,” he said.<br />

The preparation for this year’s<br />

World Butchers’ Cha lenge was<br />

intense as the team members<br />

met in Auckland every two<br />

months for lengthy w ekend<br />

practices.<br />

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

butcher for 14 years, said the<br />

competition brought back his<br />

pa sion for the job.<br />

“Doing a l thi stuff and<br />

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

ideas, it just brings that flair<br />

back for you,” he said.<br />

Mr Garth hopes t own a<br />

butcher shop of his own someday<br />

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

on ge ting mor experience<br />

and on the <strong>20</strong><strong>20</strong> cha lenge.<br />

“In two years’ time, we’ l be<br />

going back to try and win the<br />

title,” he said.<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 />
