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 />

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 />
•HAVE YOUR SAY: Do you<br />
think a disaster psychologist<br />
could make a difference<br />
to suburbs battling social<br />
isolation issues postearthquake?<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 />

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 />
COASTAL: Little<br />
feedback has<br />
been received<br />
on a proposal<br />
to change the<br />
District Plan.<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 />

DEMOLITION OF the North<br />
Avon Baptist Church is under<br />

church and community facility<br />
is expected to start early next<br />
year.<br />
The church building on 101<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 />

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 />

tune of The<br />
Wheels On<br />
The Bus.<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 />
him back down, nothing came<br />
out of that manoeuvre.<br />
“There was no pulse<br />
and we started CPR. I<br />
started chest compressions<br />

said.<br />
An airway, and ambu<br />

on the man.<br />
Mrs Hall said an airway was<br />
inserted but it looked like the<br />
man was beginning to choke so<br />
it was taken out and the man<br />
vomited out an apricot.<br />
She said it all happened so<br />
quickly and was a blur.<br />
“In the end it was a really great<br />
outcome and then the ambulance<br />
crew arrived and police arrived<br />
and he was sitting up and talking,”<br />

Not ones to follow the pack, Duchenne<br />
Denture Specialists have always been a<br />
company of firsts:<br />
- First to bring to you Duchenne’s Digital<br />
3D Denture system<br />
- First to introduce suction dentures to New<br />
Zealand<br />
- The only state-of-the-art laboratory of its<br />
kind in New Zealand<br />
- First to bring the injection moulding<br />
technique to NZ. A process that gives<br />
greater strength and a superior fit to their<br />
denture products.<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 />
world-wide in this technique, and the only<br />
one in New Zealand. He and his team at<br />
Duchenne Denture Services are proud to be<br />
able to offer you this leading technology.<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 />

‘Sadness and joy’ at Chisnallwood<br />
Chisnallwood<br />
Intermediate<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 />

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 />

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 />

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 />

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 />
New bid to fix potholes<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 />
council.”<br />

Cave Rock<br />
Apartments’<br />
owners<br />
expect EQC<br />
sign-off<br />
this week<br />
• By Sarla Donovan<br />
THE OWNERS of Sumner’s Cave<br />
Rock Apartments ar expecting the<br />
Earthquake Commi sion to sign-off<br />
on a se tlement agr emen this w ek.<br />
Body corporate chairman Mike<br />
White said the group had gone<br />
into mediation with IAG and EQC<br />
on February <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 />

In the past year, the district<br />

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

Board chairman Mike Mora<br />

“You can just about guarant e<br />
it . because we [the community<br />

Mr Mora said he wasn’t sure if<br />
the city council would endorse the<br />

“I’d like to think so because the<br />
