SING SONG: Diana Isaac Retirement Village resident Jean Rutherford plays the piano as other residents sing a song to the<br />

tune of The Wheels On The Bus.<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 />

Road<br />

report to<br />

address<br />

safety<br />

concerns<br />

• By Ashleigh Monk<br />

A PAPANUI roading and traffic<br />

report, one year in the making,<br />

will look at “safety concerns” on<br />

Sisson Drive.<br />

Sisson Drive was originally<br />

designed to be a cut-through street<br />

for motorists, cyclists and pedestrians<br />

in the area, but the report<br />

showed it was being used as a<br />

main road.<br />

The report suggests the speed<br />

limit should be reduced from<br />

40km/h to 30km/h, and several<br />

road marking changes be implemented<br />

to mitigate risk.<br />

It will also detail traffic movements<br />

on Main North Rd, Harewood<br />

Rd, Sawyers Arms Rd and<br />

Sisson Drive.<br />

The report included proposals to<br />

install a pedestrian refuge on Sawyers<br />

Arms Rd, make alterations to<br />

some intersections and introduce<br />

more road markings in the area.<br />

The Papanui-Innes Community<br />

Board requested the report in<br />

December last year.<br />

Community board chairwoman<br />

Ali Jones said that while the report<br />

seemed to have taken a long time<br />

to be completed, this was not the<br />

case.<br />

AT LAST some action looms on Sisson<br />

Drive in Papanui.<br />

We reveal on page 1 today a possible<br />

reduction in speed will be in a report out<br />

before Christmas.<br />

Sisson Drive was designed to be a minor thoroughfare<br />

connecting major roads between Northlands. But today it is a<br />

busy road, doubling as an arterial.<br />

This has been caused by the congestion on surrounding roads.<br />

So it will be a no-brainer for the Papaniu-Innes Community<br />

Board to endorse the changes city council staff have come up<br />

with, the key one being a 30km/h speed limit.<br />

Then all it needs is for the city council to give it the green<br />

light.<br />

Time line: Your guess is as goods as mine.<br />

New group for Papanui businesses<br />

Now<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

• By Ashleigh Monk<br />

PAPANUI BUSINESS owners<br />

now have a place to go to share<br />

their experiences.<br />

The newly-formed Papanui<br />

Business Community last month<br />

had its first meeting.<br />

The group’s co-ordinator,<br />

Papanui Ray White owner<br />

Vanessa<br />

Golightly said<br />

she set the<br />

group up in the<br />

hopes it would<br />

better connect<br />

businesses in<br />

the area.<br />

Vanessa<br />

Golightly<br />

“I just<br />

thought there<br />

are a lot of neat<br />

people in this community, and<br />

I didn’t even know who half of<br />

them were,” she said.<br />

“We had the first meeting last<br />

month and it was really good,<br />

we had I think about <strong>20</strong> people<br />

show up.”<br />

She said she had set up a<br />

private Facebook group to<br />

make sure members were in<br />

the loop.<br />

“It’s about getting to know<br />

each other and hopefully getting<br />

people supporting using local a<br />

bit more . . . and it’s nice to walk<br />

down the road or go to the coffee<br />

shop and say ‘gidday’ to people.”<br />

The group would be separate<br />

from the more formal Papanui<br />

Village Business Association,<br />

which was formed after the<br />

earthquakes. The group only had<br />

two members left and no longer<br />

held formal meetings.<br />

Ms Golightly said the Papanui<br />

Business Community would forgo<br />

recording meetings, as the Papanui<br />

Village Business Association had<br />

previously done.<br />

“I think after a while people<br />

sort of lost interest. I talked to<br />

the two remaining members before<br />

I set up this group because I<br />

didn’t want to step on any toes,<br />

and they were really supportive,”<br />

she said.<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 />

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 />

Webinars on the post-quake<br />

mental well-being<br />

of children launched<br />

A SERIES of webinars<br />

focusing on the mental<br />

well-being of post-quake<br />

Christchurch children has<br />

been launched.<br />

The series, called Stress<br />

Inside Out, is voiced by<br />

Dancing With The Stars<br />

co-host and well-known<br />

comedian Dai Henwood,<br />

and is supported by the St<br />

Albans Neighbourhood<br />

Trust and the Papanui<br />

Youth Development<br />

Trust.<br />

The project examines<br />

biological issues within<br />

children, brought about<br />

by more than 22,000<br />

earthquakes experienced<br />

in Canterbury, and will be<br />

available to the public this<br />

week.<br />

The six 90sec webinars<br />

(seminar conducted over<br />

the internet) will focus on<br />

how chronic stress affects<br />

children, the behaviours as<br />

a result and strategies on<br />

how to deal with it.<br />

They are based on<br />

comparative research<br />

from Canterbury<br />

University associate<br />

The chapel claimed the <strong>20</strong>18<br />

Architecture Awards last Friday.<br />

The Centennial Chapel replaced<br />

the college’s much-loved<br />

Memorial Chapel, damaged in<br />

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

It was chosen along with 17<br />

other projects to be honoured<br />

at the country’s premier design<br />

competition.<br />

It was one of only four projects<br />

to receive the further distinction<br />

of taking out a named award.<br />

the Centennial<br />

Chapel, which<br />

has been<br />

named a<br />

winner in the<br />

New Zealand<br />

Awards.<br />

predecessor, is ‘materially exquisite<br />

and spatially sophisticated.’<br />

“It establishes layers of connections<br />

– to the history of the<br />

College and its post-earthquake<br />

recovery, and to the Christchurch<br />

neo-Gothic tradition.”<br />

College Rector Christine<br />

Leighton said she was<br />

“delighted” with the award.<br />

“I am very grateful to all those<br />

who contributed to the design<br />

and construction of this wonderful<br />

building which exudes<br />

both heart and soul,” she said.<br />

This was the third prestigious<br />

design award won by the<br />

Centennial Chapel, after<br />

winning the Public Architecture<br />

Putting life back into stream<br />

• By Anan Zaki<br />

A GROUP of residents are a<br />

step closer to bringing the Ilam<br />

Stream back to life.<br />

The Network of the Ilam<br />

Stream, made up of residents<br />

wanting to revive the stream, are<br />

lobbying to improve its water<br />

flow.<br />

The stream runs above ground<br />

in the city at Avonhead Park<br />

and goes through suburban<br />

Avonhead and Ilam before<br />

joining the Avon River in Ilam<br />

gardens.<br />

The stream is sourced from<br />

springs and the Waimakariri<br />

river water race system but it is<br />

often dry for most of the year,<br />

residents say.<br />

Two years ago, the water<br />

flow has stopped on Colina St,<br />

Avonhead due to a leak.<br />

Network of the Ilam Stream<br />

treasurer Bill Carroll says fixing<br />

the leak is another step towards<br />

achieving the residents “dream”<br />

– to have a constant water flow<br />

through the Ilam Stream.<br />

Last week, the city council fixed<br />

the leak but have no plans to work<br />

on a permanent water flow.<br />

“We’ve been lobbying to get<br />

the leak fixed because the water<br />

doesn’t get to the end of the<br />

stream in the Ilam Gardens,” Mr<br />

Carroll said.<br />

The revolution<br />

in heat pumps<br />

is here now!<br />

Network of the Ilam Stream<br />

proposes the city council uses<br />

one of its bores in Avonhead Park<br />

to draw water for the stream.<br />

The current springs and water<br />

race system is not enough to<br />

have a continuous flow, Mr Carroll<br />

said.<br />

He said if the residents’ wishes<br />

for the Ilam Stream come true, it<br />

would be more valued by locals.<br />

“[We hope] there will be public<br />

places where people can walk<br />

along it and enjoy it,” Mr Carroll<br />

said.<br />

City council manager land<br />

drainage Keith Davison said the<br />

council does not have plans to<br />

“augment” the supply of water in<br />

the Ilam Stream.<br />

Said Mr Davison: “You may<br />

remember that only a couple<br />

of years back many rivers and<br />

streams around Canterbury<br />

dried up.”<br />

“Discussions were held with<br />

Environment Canterbury and<br />

agreement was reached then that<br />

we would not be augmenting<br />

supply,” Mr Davison said.<br />

FOR 30 years the Waimairi Toy<br />

Library has been a mainstay for<br />

everything from board games to<br />

bicycles.<br />

The library, based in Burnside,<br />

marked the milestone with a family<br />

fun day last week.<br />

Library co-chairwoman Vicki<br />

Lynch said making sure all children<br />

had access to good quality<br />

toys was essential.<br />

“Having the toy library means<br />

every child has access to quality<br />

toys, regardless of whether their<br />

parents can afford to buy toys,<br />

and regardless of their background,”<br />

she said.<br />

She said hiring toys rather than<br />

buying them was a great way to<br />

preserve the environment.<br />

“The good thing about hiring<br />

toys is that it’s better for the<br />

environment because you’re<br />

not buying junky stuff and then<br />

throwing it out. It’s saving a lot of<br />

toys from landfill.”<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

Toy library celebrates<br />

Toy librarian Annabel Sim said<br />

it was a “fantastic asset” to the<br />

community.<br />

“We say it’s like Christmas<br />

every two weeks. Quite a lot of<br />

parents actually come to the library<br />

without their kids to get out<br />

toys, then they’ll go home and the<br />

next day the kids wake up and go:<br />

‘Oh my gosh, look at these new<br />

toys’.”<br />

Ms Sim said the most popular<br />

toys were often not what people<br />

thought.<br />

“Last year our most popular<br />

toy, believe it or not, was a recycling<br />

truck. It was only in the<br />

library about two or three weeks<br />

of the year,” she said.<br />

She said her favourite part of<br />

working at the toy library was<br />

getting to “test” the new toys that<br />

came in.<br />

“I love being able to play<br />

with all the toys before anyone<br />

else gets them. All the toys get<br />

delivered to my place, so my kids<br />

get to be toy testers.”<br />

Butcher up for ‘Olympic’ challenge<br />

A BURNSIDE man has once<br />

again been selected to represent<br />

New Zealand in an event known<br />

as the Olympics of Butchery.<br />

Jeremy Garth, who is the<br />

butchery manager at New World<br />

Ferry Road, was this week named<br />

among the seven butchers who<br />

will make up the New Zealand<br />

team at the <strong>20</strong><strong>20</strong> World Butchers’<br />

Challenge.<br />

It’s the second time he has made<br />

the cut for the team known as<br />

the ‘Sharp Blacks’, having taken<br />

part in this year’s WBC in Belfast,<br />

Northern Ireland, where the<br />

Sharp Blacks placed second.<br />

“I’m still celebrating being<br />

selected again,” Mr Garth says.<br />

“Apart from the captain [Corey<br />

Winder, also of Christchurch] I’m<br />

the only one who got back in.”<br />

He and the other six Sharp<br />

Blacks will now start preparing<br />

for the next WBC, to be held<br />

in Sacramento, California, in<br />

September <strong>20</strong><strong>20</strong>.<br />

“Over the next two years<br />

we’ll meet regularly for training<br />

weekends, then return to each<br />

of our home butcheries to apply<br />

those techniques to what we do<br />

for our customers.”<br />

Mr Garth has been assigned<br />

a new team role too, switching<br />

from breaking down the raw<br />

carcasses to turning them into<br />

retail cuts.<br />

For shoppers of New World<br />

Ferry Road that will mean soon<br />

being able to buy cuts of meat that<br />

are indisputably ‘world class’.<br />

“Being able to talk to customers<br />

about the wide range of cuts they<br />

can get is one of the best parts of<br />

my job. Now I’m essentially going<br />

to be in training for <strong>20</strong><strong>20</strong> every<br />

day, our shoppers can expect to<br />

see some good stuff.”<br />

Steve Anderson, chief executive<br />

of Foodstuffs South Island, says<br />

having a butcher of Mr Garth’s<br />

calibre on the Foodstuffs team<br />

shows the supermarket operator is<br />

“getting the right people.”<br />

“Because our stores are<br />

locally-owned and operated<br />

their butchery teams are more<br />

responsive to local shoppers’<br />

tastes, and also more attractive<br />

to the best local talent – proof of<br />

which can be seen here,” says Mr<br />

Anderson.<br />

Indeed, Garth’s rise to the<br />

top of the butchery world is an<br />

inspiration to young schoolleavers.<br />

“My first job was as a<br />

cleaner in a butcher shop. Now<br />

I’m managing a very large city<br />

butchery serving hundreds of<br />

shoppers a day, and representing<br />

my country at what I do best. If<br />

I could tell my 16-year-old self<br />

one thing it would be to find<br />

something you like and can get<br />

better at every day, and stick at it.”<br />

California for the World Butchers’ Challenge.<br />

Another First, 3D<br />

Digital Dentures<br />

<strong>News</strong><br />

from Duchenne<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 />

“It was very well executed,<br />

and great to see<br />

the residents had a sense<br />

of humour, balanced with<br />

their real sense of concern<br />

and advocacy to<br />

retain a public<br />

transport link.”<br />

He said ECan<br />

would continue<br />

to work with<br />

residents to find<br />

a solution for the<br />

“mid and longterm.”<br />

Resident Murray<br />

Lennox said he wrote the<br />

“little ditty” in an effort to<br />

keep the meeting light and<br />

friendly.<br />

“I’ve written a number<br />

of poems. It’s become a<br />

traditional thing here on<br />

Stewart Gibbon<br />

a Friday that if I turn up<br />

to morning tea without a<br />

poem then they’re asking<br />

questions,” he said.<br />

“It was just to keep the<br />

mood light and bring a bit<br />

of hilarity to it.”<br />

He said the<br />

decision not to reroute<br />

the No 44 left<br />

residents and staff<br />

at the rest home<br />

“stranded.”<br />

“A lot of us are still<br />

mobile, but the day<br />

will come for a lot of<br />

folks here where we<br />

will no longer be able to get<br />

about as we used to.”<br />

He said the residents<br />

had come up with options<br />

which were presented to<br />

ECan, including installing<br />

a turning bay on Philpotts<br />

“They’re still exploring<br />

those options, they have<br />

to discuss that with city<br />

We just have to get<br />

through all this red tape,”<br />

he said.<br />

“One of our residents<br />

who is in his 90s asked if<br />

while they were trying to<br />

work those things out, why<br />

couldn’t they just bring the<br />

Orbiter down to Innes Rd<br />

“It was first requested<br />

because of the cycleway<br />

done, we essentially knew<br />

that it had to be<br />

put on hold . . . it<br />

hasn’t been held up<br />

or slowed down or<br />

anything like that,”<br />

she said.<br />

She said she could<br />

not comment further<br />

on the contents<br />

of the report until it had<br />

been presented to the board.<br />

“There’s nothing that I<br />

can, will, or wants to say<br />

about the report before it<br />

come back before the board,<br />

John Stringer<br />

because that just would be<br />

totally inappropriate given<br />

the process we’re in.”<br />

Community board member<br />

John Stringer said there<br />

had been some “disquiet”<br />

amongst Papanui<br />

residents due to<br />

the amount of<br />

change happening<br />

in the area.<br />

“I am conscious<br />

of defending the<br />

residential nature<br />

and needs of<br />

Papanui as one of the oldest<br />

residential suburbs of Christchurch<br />

with a large retired<br />

demographic,” he said.<br />

“I do welcome the report<br />

– which we commissioned<br />

as a board last year – as<br />

it studies directly local<br />

impacts that perhaps a<br />

wider city council may not<br />

discern, which is why we<br />

have local boards.”<br />

He said in spite of how<br />

long it had taken to complete<br />

the report, he looked<br />

forward to seeing it.<br />

“I’m critical about how<br />

long it’s taken to get to us,<br />

but that said, it will enable<br />

the local board to address<br />

local transport pressures<br />

and I look forward to<br />

engaging in any issues<br />

the report raises once<br />

it’s tabled publicly, and<br />

hearing what local people<br />

have to say.”

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 />

chance to contribute with my skills to<br />

people in this country.<br />

As an interpreter I’ve been in courts,<br />

inside the police offices and even on top<br />

of a boat! There is never a dull moment.<br />

I’ve also done some difficult emotional<br />

jobs as I had to translate to a Latin family<br />

that their relative (who was very ill in the<br />

hospital) was about to die.<br />

What I like the most about being an<br />

interpreter is the fact I can help people<br />

to connect and understand each other.<br />

Something we really need in this world we<br />

live in nowadays, something I know, as a<br />

psychologist, is an essential human need.”<br />

At Interpreting NZ we believe that in<br />

order to be an interpreter, it is vital to have<br />

excellent language skills as the message<br />

must be passed on fully and accurately.<br />

There are at least two other necessary<br />

attributes: the first is the ability to remain<br />

completely impartial, something that<br />

is often difficult to manage when you<br />

are interpreting for people you know<br />

well. The second is making sure to keep<br />

everything absolutely confidential. Good<br />

training provides you with the tools to deal<br />

competently with all these aspects of the<br />

interpreter’s role.<br />

At Interpreting NZ we train, employ<br />

and provide professional community<br />

interpreters. If you are a proficient<br />

speaker of English and another language<br />

and interested in training as an interpreter,<br />

our next course starts on Friday the 1st of<br />

February <strong>20</strong>19.<br />

“A local team for local people”<br />

NATIVE: Natives were planted by Burnside Primary and Cobham Intermediate<br />

pupils in an effort to provide shade for eels in the Wairarapa Stream.<br />

Burnside, Cobham pupils<br />

team up to protect eels<br />

SCHOOLS<br />

TWO SCHOOLS have<br />

joined forces to care for<br />

a shared local treasure –<br />

giant longfin eels in the<br />

Wairarapa Stream.<br />

Pupils from Burnside<br />

Primary School and Cobham<br />

Intermediate came<br />

together last week to plant<br />

native plants along the<br />

stream as part of the Te<br />

Tuna Tāone – Urban Eel<br />

project.<br />

The project, run by the<br />

Working Waters Trust in<br />

collaboration with Enviroschools<br />

Canterbury, aims<br />

to teach the pupils about<br />

aquatic life and recognise<br />

the impacts that humans<br />

have on it.<br />

Part of Te Tuna Tāone involves<br />

pupils planning and<br />

participating in their own<br />

activities.<br />

Burnside Primary pupils<br />

chose to plant along the<br />

waterway to provide eel<br />

habitat and shade, and<br />

invited their neighbouring<br />

pupils at Cobham Intermediate<br />

to also get involved.<br />

Burnside teacher Bianca<br />

Woyak said the planting<br />

was particularly poignant<br />

as it was a sign of the future,<br />

with the two schools<br />

slated to share a campus<br />

when rebuilding occurs.<br />

“Burnside Primary<br />

School loved working<br />

with Cobham Intermediate,<br />

Working Waters and<br />

Enviroschools Canterbury.<br />

The pupils enjoyed working<br />

together for such an excellent<br />

cause. The Burnside<br />

Primary School year 5 and<br />

6 students will be able to<br />

watch the trees grow, and<br />

help monitor the Wairarapa<br />

Stream’s health.”<br />

Cobham student Jessica<br />

French was one of the<br />

participants on the day and<br />

said she enjoyed making a<br />

difference to the environment.<br />

“Room 11 has had a lot<br />

of fun planting these trees<br />

and knowing that we are<br />

doing our part for the environment<br />

is a huge plus.”<br />

Jessica was also proud<br />

of the long-term effect this<br />

project would have.<br />

“By planting these trees,<br />

we are creating a future<br />

education resource to<br />

explain river health to the<br />

next generation, and to a<br />

broader degree, helping the<br />

environment and doing our<br />

bit to stop global warming.”<br />

Cobham teacher Brenton<br />

Jackson was enthusiastic<br />

about being involved in the<br />

project.<br />

“Going forward, Cobham<br />

would love to be part of Te<br />

Tuna Tāone – Urban Eel<br />

next year. I feel that educating<br />

young New Zealanders<br />

about protecting longfin<br />

eels is essential to prevent<br />

this at-risk species from<br />

becoming extinct in the<br />

long term”.<br />

Solid performance earns apprentice award<br />

ST ALBANS man Peter Ravn has<br />

been named New Zealand’s top<br />

carpentry apprentice.<br />

Mr Ravn, 26, took out the title<br />

of Registered Master Builders<br />

Carters <strong>20</strong>18 apprentice of the<br />

year at the annual national competition.<br />

He went head-to-head with<br />

nine other national finalists, in<br />

a tough six-hour practical challenge.<br />

They were tasked with building<br />

a complex<br />

garden station<br />

that put their<br />

skills to the<br />

test.<br />

Mr Ravn<br />

employed by<br />

trained through the BCITO.<br />

The competition judges<br />

said Peter was an outstanding<br />

all-rounder, and gave a solid<br />

performance throughout the<br />

competition.<br />

“To be successful in this industry,<br />

you must be an all-rounder.<br />

Peter demonstrated high competency<br />

across all aspects of the<br />

competition,” they said.<br />

“Peter had a good submission,<br />

was a great communicator in his<br />

interview, and displayed high<br />

quality skills in the practical<br />

challenge.<br />

“He shows maturity and passion<br />

for his craft, with a clear<br />

vision to be an industry leader.<br />

His professionality is admirable.<br />

A worthy winner of the <strong>20</strong>18 Apprentice<br />

of the Year.”<br />

The two-day national competition<br />

saw each of the 10 finalists<br />

undergo a 45min individual<br />

interview with the judging panel.<br />

This was followed by the challenging<br />

practical component,<br />

the garden station build. All 10<br />

garden stations will be donated to<br />

local schools and are designed to<br />

help children learn about growing<br />

food.<br />

The challenge took place in<br />

front of an audience of family,<br />

friends and the general public at<br />

the ASB Showgrounds.<br />

Registered Master Builders<br />

chief executive David Kelly says<br />

it was great to see the young<br />

apprentices demonstrate such a<br />

high level of skill so early in their<br />

careers.<br />

and have demonstrated high<br />

craft standards throughout the<br />

competition. They are an inspiration<br />

to those looking to join the<br />

industry,” he said.<br />

Mr Kelly also says the competition<br />

acknowledges and celebrates<br />

the employers that contribute<br />

to the industry by investing in<br />

young talent.<br />

“We need more employers<br />

to invest their time, skills<br />

many companies entering their<br />

apprentices into the competition<br />

year after year, and we applaud<br />

them for their ongoing and<br />

continued investment in young<br />

talent.”<br />

Carters chief executive Mike<br />

Guy said he was incredibly proud<br />

to be involved in helping support<br />

the careers of such a talented<br />

group of apprentices.<br />

“Apprentice of the year reflects<br />

Carters’ dedication to supporting<br />

New Zealand’s apprentices<br />

through investing in training<br />

and mentoring. Attracting young<br />

talent to our industry is essential<br />

to the success of New Zealand’s<br />

booming construction sector,”<br />

he said.<br />

“We congratulate Peter and<br />

all the finalists for their commitment<br />

and passion for the<br />

industry and we look forward to<br />

seeing them make their mark on<br />

the industry.”<br />

Nominated by Mr White, Teacher in Charge of Rowing, and<br />

backed up by Sarah Lindley (Head Coach), Fergus made the<br />

step from being a rower himself the previous two seasons, to<br />

helping coach our young, large squad of rowers this year.<br />

Fergus supported the Head Coach throughout the year<br />

and was sole charge of a number of morning trainings. He<br />

volunteered and attended all the regattas that Burnside High<br />

entered into in the <strong>20</strong>17/<strong>20</strong>18 season, and was always willing<br />

to help load and unload boats after training and regattas<br />

and support the students getting ready for their races. With<br />

Fergus’ help, many of the crews achieved top placings at their<br />

different regattas over the season, culminating in making three<br />

‘A’ finals at Maadi Cup in Twizel.<br />

Over the winter months this year, Fergus has worked towards<br />

achieving his Rowing New Zealand<br />

Level 1 Coaching certificate. On top<br />

of this he is also accredited with his<br />

Maritime NZ Boat Safety certificate.<br />

Fergus is an enormous asset to<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 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 />

ADVERTORIAL<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 />

Acne a concern? It thrives in harsh<br />

environments like dry weather or hormonal<br />

imbalance and can be very painful and<br />

uncomfortable.<br />

With more than two decades of experience<br />

behind them, Charmaine and her team<br />

to the rescue. The clinic offers a variety of<br />

services including Teeth Whitening, Anti-<br />

Acne, Anti-Aging, Age Spots, Eczema,<br />

Psoriasis, Uneven Skin Tone, Rejuvenation<br />

treatments and so much more.<br />

Their technical LED Light Therapy facial<br />

BEFORE<br />

AFTER<br />

Amazing results – before and after photos<br />

supplied by a happy client, who has been<br />

battling acne all her life<br />

machine is having astounding results by<br />

infusing nourishment back into the skin<br />

pores with the natural but active Mismo<br />

skincare range.<br />

For acne, the LED machine helps with antibacterial<br />

treatments, which makes puss<br />

pools smaller and smaller over time, so the<br />

acne won’t be as visible on the face.<br />

The LED machine also triggers the regrowth<br />

of collagen which smooths out wrinkles and<br />

lessens facial line severity, Age Spots & Scars<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 />

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 />

from the city council to make a<br />

submi sion if Fulton Hogan a plies<br />

Board chairman Mike Mora<br />

told Western <strong>News</strong> the submi sion<br />

would likely o pose Fulton Hogan’s<br />

plan.<br />

“You can just about guarant e<br />

it . because we [the community<br />

board] don’t believe qua ries<br />

should be so close to residential<br />

areas,” he said.<br />

Mr Mora said he wasn’t sure if<br />

the city council would endorse the<br />

board’ submi sion.<br />

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

city council has had their eyes<br />

open as we l ove recent years over<br />

board wi l be “representing and<br />
