Councillors<br />

clash over<br />

dangerous<br />

intersection<br />

upgrades<br />

CITY COUNCILLORS are in a<br />

battle over which intersection on<br />

Harewood Rd needs to be upgraded<br />

first.<br />

The clash took place when the<br />

Harewood Rd Corridor Study was<br />

presented to the city council on<br />

Thursday.<br />

Councillors Aaron<br />

Keown and Mike<br />

Davidson sparred<br />

over the report’s<br />

contents. Cr Keown<br />

said the paper<br />

was not credible<br />

as it downplayed<br />

the danger of the<br />

Harewood, Breens<br />

and Gardiners Rds intersection.<br />

Aaron<br />

Keown<br />

“I have a lot of problems with the<br />

report, because I feel this report<br />

has been put together to get a<br />

particular outcome for a particular<br />

intersection.”<br />

Cr Keown has been battling to get<br />

lights installed at the intersection<br />

since the issue saw him re-elected to<br />

the city council in 2016.<br />

He says there are several<br />

discrepancies within the findings in<br />

terms of crashes at the Harewood,<br />

Gardiners and Breens Rds<br />

junction that made it seem like<br />

the intersection did not need an<br />

upgrade. •Turn to page 8<br />

from the editor’s desk<br />

I CAN sympathise with Tim Sintes, who<br />

has been struck down with pneumonia<br />

(pages 13 and 15).<br />

The all-round good guy from Southshore<br />

has been laid very low in recent weeks.<br />

I know exactly how he is feeling. Pneumonia smashed me<br />

about 18 months ago. I don’t smoke and I’m reasonably fit. And<br />

like Tim, I’ve no idea how I got it.<br />

I lost 9kg in just over a week, spent four days in hospital and<br />

was off work for three weeks (the longest time I have ever been).<br />

The doctor initially said I had a dose of the flu and I was sent<br />

on my way. A week later when I struggled back to the doctor, she<br />

dispatched me to hospital.<br />

Be careful out there.<br />

Speaking at the symbolic<br />

anniversary of Armistice Day last<br />

month to commemorate 100 years<br />

of peace since the ending of World<br />

War 1 was a special moment.<br />

It’s important that every year we<br />

acknowledge those who made the<br />

ultimate sacrifice to give us the<br />

freedom and choices we enjoy<br />

today. The lessons learnt from that<br />

awful war, called the Great War<br />

because it was inconceivable that<br />

another war would ever be waged<br />

on that scale, are as relevant today<br />

as they were then.<br />

I enjoyed meeting the teams<br />

at Pegasus Health and Rural<br />

Canterbury PHO with National’s<br />

Associate Health Spokesperson<br />

Shane Reti recently. We heard<br />

about some great initiatives to<br />

support rural health and Pegasus<br />

Health in Christchurch briefed us<br />

on their work supporting general<br />

practices and community-based<br />

health providers. It’s important<br />

this work on the frontier of mentalhealth<br />

delivery in our communities<br />

is supported by all parties.<br />

We know that Kiwi families<br />

should be at the centre of our<br />

legislation if we’re to deliver policies<br />

that help people get ahead. Rising<br />

living costs have long-reaching<br />

effects on families being able to<br />

plan for their futures. We want<br />

families to feel safe and financially<br />

secure, and have access to good<br />

health and education services.<br />

We’re asking families to participate<br />

in a survey about how we can<br />

support you. Go to https://www.<br />

national.org.nz/families to take part.<br />

I’ll be out and about over the<br />

Christmas break as my family and I<br />

have decided to enjoy a staycation,<br />

appreciating the beaches and<br />

walks on our doorstep. Whether<br />

you stay at home or go away,<br />

from my family to yours I wish you<br />

a wonderful holiday season and<br />

a New Year of good health and<br />

wellbeing.

Church opposing same-sex<br />

marriage sets up in Papanui<br />

• By Matt Slaughter<br />

A NEW church for people who<br />

split from the Christchurch<br />

Anglican Diocese after its<br />

decision to allow same-sex<br />

marriage has held its first service<br />

in Papanui.<br />

The newly re-branded All<br />

Saints Church met at the Palmer<br />

Funeral Chapel on<br />

Harewood Rd.<br />

The service was<br />

led by former St<br />

Stephen’s Anglican<br />

Church vicar Jay<br />

Behan, who was a<br />

Andy<br />

Carley<br />

guest preacher.<br />

He said the<br />

service was<br />

attended by almost<br />

50 people and was “a good,<br />

positive get-together.”<br />

Rev Behan stepped down from<br />

St Stephen’s in May, saying he<br />

was saddened by the synod’s<br />

decision to embrace same-sex<br />

marriage, as his congregation<br />

had not “been able to come<br />

to an arrangement where, in<br />

good conscience, we can move<br />

forward together.”<br />

Former St Paul’s Anglican<br />

Church vicar Andy Carley gave<br />

his last service at the church last<br />

Sunday and will now step in as<br />

the leader of All Saints Church.<br />

The St Paul’s congregation<br />

voted in May to stay with the<br />

Christchurch Anglican Diocese,<br />

in spite of its new stance on<br />

same-sex marriage, with 70<br />

per cent voting in favour of the<br />

status quo.<br />

The decision to allow same-sex<br />

marriages was criticised by Rev<br />

Carley, who previously called<br />

the move “a step in the wrong<br />

direction.”<br />

Armed with a new logo and<br />

name, All Saints is calling its<br />

church “a new expression of<br />

BREAK<br />

AWAY: The<br />

new All Saints<br />

Church<br />

held its first<br />

service at<br />

the Palmer<br />

Funeral<br />

Chapel.<br />

Anglicanism.”<br />

Rev Carley refused to<br />

talk about the new church.<br />

Said Christchurch<br />

Anglican Diocesan manager<br />

Edwin Boyce: “We recognise<br />

their desire to begin a new<br />

ministry and we wish them<br />

well.”<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

Mia ready to make her<br />

mark on politics<br />

• By Ashleigh Monk<br />

ARMED WITH a love for<br />

science, technology and politics,<br />

16-year-old Mia Wright is ready<br />

to make her mark.<br />

The St Margaret’s College<br />

student has been selected to<br />

represent National list MP Nicky<br />

Wagner as a youth MP in the<br />

Youth Parliament next year.<br />

Mia said she has always been<br />

interested in politics and she<br />

followed last year’s election<br />

closely.<br />

“With social media and the<br />

internet in particular, youth<br />

are a lot more aware of the<br />

going-ons around them, and I<br />

think it’s really important that<br />

we have a voice in our future,”<br />

she said.<br />

“The plan in the next couple<br />

of weeks is for me to reach out<br />

to a couple of youth groups<br />

and get their point of view on<br />

what they want to see happen in<br />

Government.”<br />

Mia has a passion for science<br />

and technology.<br />

“I’m in love with technology<br />

and coding and science. I’ve<br />

done a lot of robotics in the past,<br />

and over the last six months my<br />

REPRESENTING: National list MP Nicky Wagner has selected<br />

the project, so that’s amazing.”<br />

Davidson v Livingstone<br />

• By Julia Evans<br />

MIKE DAVIDSON has capped<br />

off his year of sport with a<br />

win against his city council<br />

counterpart.<br />

The Papanui Ward city councillor<br />

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

Ward’s Glenn Livingstone<br />

in the Car Park Cannon Ball<br />

challenge. The pair competed in<br />

the councillor category, racing up<br />

eight floors of a car park building.<br />

Cr Davidson won comfortably<br />

2-0. “I won’t go into the detail of<br />

how easy it was to beat him, but<br />

thank him for also supporting the<br />

cause,” he said.<br />

It was a “fantastic event” for<br />

riders and spectators, he said.<br />

“But, more importantly, the<br />

RACE: City<br />

councillors<br />

Mike<br />

Davidson<br />

and Glenn<br />

Livingstone<br />

went headto-head<br />

in<br />

the Car Park<br />

Cannon Ball<br />

challenge.<br />

reason for the event was about<br />

raising money and awareness for<br />

men’s health.”<br />

Cr Davidson will be competing<br />

again next year and challenged all<br />

councillors to do the same.<br />

“Personally this caps off a<br />

significant year for me on the<br />

sporting scene, having completed<br />

the Coast to Coast, Sea to Sky<br />

Duathalon, Le Race, Grape Ride,<br />

Christchurch Marathon, Fight for<br />

Christchurch and Car Park Cannon<br />

Ball,” he said.<br />

Cr Davidson recently got in the<br />

boxing ring with Crusaders<br />

assistant coach Brad Mooar to<br />

raise money for Cure Kids. He<br />

also dropped about 20kg when<br />

he was training for the Coast to<br />

Coast in February.<br />

WHAT’S INSIDE? Helping Papanui-Innes Community Board<br />

chairwoman Ali Jones open the time capsule are Molly Vaile<br />

(left), Annabel Allen, Rory Forsythe and Max McNulty.<br />

Time capsule to spend 100<br />

more years underground<br />

THE CONTENTS of a 1920s<br />

time capsule recently opened<br />

in St Albans are set to be<br />

reburied.<br />

The capsule was opened in<br />

September after being hidden<br />

for nearly 100 years. It was buried<br />

in 1920 when the St Albans<br />

Public Library was constructed<br />

and was only discovered in 20<strong>11</strong><br />

when the building was demolished.<br />

Copies of The Lyttelton Times<br />

and The Press from the 1920s<br />

were among the artefacts found<br />

in the capsule, along with a<br />

letter.<br />

However, at Friday’s meeting,<br />

the Papanui-Innes Community<br />

Board decided to rebury the<br />

capsule alongside a new one.<br />

It will be buried in 2020 with<br />

the completion of the new St Albans<br />

Community Centre and is<br />

set to be reopened on the 100th<br />

anniversary of the community<br />

centre in 2120.<br />

City council staff will incorporate<br />

the two capsules into the<br />

centre’s foundation design.<br />

Community groups will be<br />

invited to make a contribution<br />

to the contents at the St Albans<br />

Park reopening event.<br />

A replica of the contents of<br />

the old capsule may also be<br />

displayed in the entrance to the<br />

community centre.<br />

•From page 1<br />

But city councillors Mike<br />

Davidson and Pauline Cotter said<br />

the report actually highlights<br />

a more dangerous intersection<br />

along the corridor – Greers and<br />

Harewood Rds.<br />

Said Cr Davidson “You can<br />

read through reports and try and<br />

pick out little bits that you have<br />

issues with, but<br />

when you read<br />

the report in its<br />

entirety, it’s very<br />

clear that actually<br />

the intersection<br />

that is creating the<br />

most risk down<br />

Mike<br />

Davidson<br />

there is the Greers<br />

Rd/Harewood Rd<br />

intersection.”<br />

The city council needed to be<br />

“careful” about moving capital<br />

forward to pay for upgrades at the<br />

Breens, Gardiners and Harewood<br />

Rds intersection, Cr Davidson<br />

said.<br />

He said that intersection would<br />

likely not get a New Zealand<br />

Transport Agency subsidy.<br />

“We need to look at what<br />

actually needs to be done first.<br />

We need to be mindful where the<br />

risk is down that corridor.”<br />

However, Cr Keown said you<br />

cannot compare the two as<br />

the Greers and Harewood Rds<br />

intersection already has traffic<br />

lights. “The problems are not<br />

because it has traffic lights, it’s<br />

a number of other reasons. This<br />

is about getting people<br />

across that intersection.”<br />

Mayor Lianne Dalziel<br />

said it is important to<br />

look at the entire corridor<br />

as Harewood Rd has<br />

changed.<br />

“It is no longer the<br />

major thoroughfare that<br />

it used to be. As a result,<br />

the four lanes encourage<br />

people to speed because there<br />

isn’t a lot of traffic to slow it down<br />

Clash over intersection upgrades<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

DEBATE: City councillors have clashed over whether the<br />

controversial Breens, Harewood and Gardiners Rds intersection<br />

should be upgraded first.<br />

and so it creates a dangerous<br />

corridor.”<br />

“There are significant issues in<br />

this report that need to be<br />

worked shopped.”<br />

She called for a<br />

workshop involving<br />

the Papanui-Innes and<br />

Fendalton-Waimairi-<br />

boards.<br />

But she said there were<br />

River plan creates ‘vibrant future’<br />

Avebury<br />

House<br />

Community<br />

Trust<br />

house coordinator<br />

Tanya<br />

Didham<br />

writes<br />

about how the Otakaro<br />

Avon River Corridor<br />

draft regeneration plan<br />

will have an impact on<br />

Richmond<br />

AVEBURY House has<br />

experienced several<br />

transformations since its<br />

origins in the 1850s. It was<br />

a doctor’s cottage, a grand<br />

family home, a youth hostel,<br />

a quake victim and now,<br />

heading into 2019, a fullyrefurbished<br />

community asset.<br />

Richmond has weathered<br />

more than its fair share of<br />

transformation, too, but<br />

as we approach eight years<br />

since a kink in the earth’s<br />

surface changed everything,<br />

we are beginning to see<br />

the way forward – the next<br />

transformation.<br />

Bordering the red zone,<br />

as we do, whatever happens<br />

in that quake-affected river<br />

corridor is going to have a<br />

BEAUTIFUL: Avebury House has had its fair share of<br />

changes since it opened in the 1850s.<br />

big impact on us and our<br />

communities. The waiting-toknow<br />

is almost over.<br />

Regenerate Christchurch<br />

has released its draft plan and<br />

it feels like it has listened to<br />

what so many of us have been<br />

saying: Restore the health of<br />

the river.<br />

Move forward by respecting<br />

our past heritage – not just our<br />

built heritage, but our cultural<br />

and natural heritage too.<br />

In 1851, Dr Samuel Grundy<br />

bought the section Avebury<br />

now stands on and built a<br />

modest house, naming it after<br />

his hometown in England.<br />

At that time, the South<br />

Island was still referred to<br />

as New Munster, the entire<br />

European population of New<br />

Zealand was just under 27,000<br />

(Maori numbered about<br />

56,000) and the Otakaro-Avon<br />

got its first footbridge, crossing<br />

the river where Worcester St<br />

does now.<br />

Already by then a huge<br />

amount of native bush had<br />

been cleared, but Canterbury<br />

long-tailed bats were still<br />

thriving, native bush still lined<br />

the waterways and tui were an<br />

ever-present songbird.<br />

Here at Avebury, we’re<br />

excited to see the river<br />

walkways and cycleways open<br />

up and native planting start<br />

to fill the gaps and cracks that<br />

still remind us of what’s gone,<br />

while bringing back a little of<br />

what was lost long before. And<br />

we also see projects that bring<br />

people and activities back to<br />

our community.<br />

Let Regenerate Christchurch<br />

know (before the consultation<br />

closes on <strong>December</strong> 19) that<br />

you like where it is going<br />

with this, because here in<br />

Richmond, we’re ready for a<br />

green and vibrant future.<br />

NOR’WEST NEWS<br />

As a person who sets high (at times<br />

ridiculously high) standards, it’s often a<br />

relief to get to the end of the year – and this<br />

year especially. Along with everyone else,<br />

whether working at a breakneck pace or<br />

to a simpler rhythm, I find it a good time to<br />

reflect on the events of the previous twelve<br />

months. The businessperson in me looks to<br />

analyse and assess. To attempt to repeat the<br />

successes and minimize the falls in the year<br />

that’s been and, of course, there have<br />

been both.<br />

Achieving the highest performing office<br />

internationally for the Harcourts brand has<br />

been the biggest accolade. It’s seen the<br />

Papanui office placed as the number-one office<br />

out of over 900 in 10 countries. Undoubtedly<br />

a proud moment, but there have also been<br />

the usual conflicts that come with running<br />

a successful business whilst managing the<br />

various agendas of over 120 people across<br />

five offices.<br />

It’s also been a year where law changes<br />

around Overseas Investment and Anti-<br />

Money Laundering have required a new level<br />

of compliance and vigilance. 2019 will no<br />

doubt see even more training and specialist<br />

assistance to ensure the highest levels of<br />

professional care are maintained in these<br />

very new areas.<br />

Personally, the mother in me is adjusting to<br />

the new dimension of having two sons mostly<br />

living away from home and another Christmas<br />

(the seventh) without our eldest son Harry, who<br />

will be working in the Japanese Alps. Like every<br />

parent, these moments make me thoughtful<br />

and nostalgic, and probably contribute to the<br />

rationale for always having an open house on<br />

Christmas Day. We’re a ‘more the merrier’ kind<br />

of family and our day is complete with our own<br />

quirky traditions and enough food and drink to<br />

feed a small army.<br />

So, it’s been a great year, a changing market<br />

and a changing environment. Adjusting to new<br />

price points in different demographics whilst<br />

instigating additional support services for the<br />

company. The appointment of a full-time social<br />

media designer has opened-up a whole new<br />

methodology for connecting with potential<br />

clients and purchasers, and the year ahead sees<br />

us adding to this part of the business. Giving back<br />

has also been a constant theme, and children<br />

and the vulnerable are the first on our list. So,<br />

what will 2019 look like? Like other years, it will<br />

probably have its share of challenge and cheer.<br />

I’m hoping it means lots of good madness, a<br />

caring community, lots of opportunity and more<br />

time with the people I love.<br />

Happy Christmas!<br />

Now<br />

‘Knocked for six’ with pneumonia<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

Pneumonia can strike at<br />

any time. Well-known<br />

local body politician Tim<br />

Sintes is recovering from<br />

the potentially deadly<br />

infection. Julia Evans<br />

reports<br />

TIM SINTES has been in<br />

bed living off a diet of english<br />

breakfast tea and Kurols cough<br />

drops for the past five weeks.<br />

It’s a big change for the 67-yearold<br />

former fisherman, who can<br />

normally be found surfing,<br />

gardening or tinkering in his<br />

shed.<br />

But Mr Sintes, who is deputy<br />

chairman of the Coastal-<br />

Burwood Community Board,<br />

has been “knocked for six” by a<br />

severe case of pneumonia.<br />

It’s landed him in hospital<br />

twice.<br />

“The day before it happened,<br />

I was riding my mountain bike<br />

over Rapaki with my daughter.<br />

The next day, I woke up and I<br />

thought I just had hay fever, I<br />

had a blocked nose and that was<br />

about it,” Mr Sintes said.<br />

He started to shake and shiver<br />

– the next morning he went to<br />

the doctor.<br />

“One listen to the croak in<br />

my chest and he said ‘you’ve<br />

got quite severe pneumonia’. I<br />

went straight to get an X-ray<br />

and then I was admitted to<br />

hospital.”<br />

It went downhill from there.<br />

“I just kept getting worse.<br />

At first we thought it was<br />

legionnaires’, I’d just redone the<br />

lawns.”<br />

Every year Mr Sintes’ hosts<br />

a community Christmas<br />

celebration at his Southshore<br />

home and was relaying the lawn<br />

for the occasion.<br />

ON THE<br />

MEND:<br />

Coastal-<br />

Burwood<br />

Community<br />

Board deputy<br />

chairman<br />

Tim Sintes<br />

has been in<br />

bed for five<br />

weeks with a<br />

severe case of<br />

pneumonia.<br />

“But I’d been wearing a mask<br />

when I was doing the lawn . . .<br />

they worked out it was a bacterial<br />

infection that caused the<br />

pneumonia, but nobody knows<br />

how I got it.”<br />

Mr Sintes said he knew nothing<br />

about pneumonia before, but now<br />

he is an expert.<br />

“I did not realise the<br />

seriousness of it. When people<br />

would say to me they’ve got<br />

pneumonia, I would think it was<br />

just a bit like having the flu,” he<br />

said.<br />

There were moments he<br />

thought he would never breathe<br />

again when his lungs felt like<br />

they were compressing in on<br />

themselves.<br />

“I was on oxygen in a severe<br />

state for three days. I couldn’t<br />

breathe and the bed was<br />

wringing wet from me sweating<br />

so much. One night I had the<br />

most intense hallucinations.<br />

They were in 3D colour. It was<br />

horrible,” he said.<br />

“You feel very vulnerable.<br />

Usually I’m too busy to be sick.”<br />

He was discharged from<br />

hospital and felt like he was on<br />

the mend.<br />

“I felt better and I thought,<br />

wow, I can do all these things.<br />

Since I didn’t feel too bad, I<br />

thought good, it was all over,” he<br />

said.<br />

Soon he was back in the surf,<br />

mowing the lawns and just about<br />

at the end of his first course of<br />

antibiotics.<br />

Shakes and shivers a battle for Sintes<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

•From page 13<br />

“There were about three or<br />

four days where I couldn’t quite<br />

believe it, I felt alive again.<br />

One day I mowed the lawns, the<br />

next day I was out for a coffee in<br />

Sumner and I started feeling not<br />

too good again,” Mr Sintes said.<br />

His wife Jan suggested he go to<br />

hospital.“The aches and shakes<br />

were back and I thought, ‘no, I<br />

don’t want to go to hospital’. But<br />

I had to tell my wife to ring the<br />

ambulance.”<br />

He ended<br />

up spending<br />

another<br />

six days in<br />

hospital.<br />

Mr Sintes<br />

was discharged<br />

from hospital<br />

for the second<br />

Tim Sintes<br />

time 10 days<br />

ago.<br />

The pneumonia had spread to<br />

his other lung. “That taught me<br />

a lesson. Listen to your doctor<br />

when they say you need to rest. I<br />

didn’t think it was much, I didn’t<br />

think of the consequences and<br />

now I’ve been sick for five weeks.”<br />

After losing 8kg, Mr Sintes<br />

believes he may be on the road to<br />

recovery and has been getting his<br />

appetite back.<br />

“I’m so cautious now. I don’t<br />

pneumonia and it was the cause of 124 deaths.<br />

want to go backwards again.”<br />

Although most people are<br />

lamenting the cold start to<br />

summer, Mr Sintes said it has<br />

been great.<br />

“It would be torture if I had<br />

to lie here and it was sunny. I<br />

enjoy life so much. Believe me,<br />

this weather has been bad for<br />

everyone except me.”<br />

Six weeks ago, Mr Sintes<br />

had an accident with a<br />

chainsaw and cut his leg. Two<br />

weeks later he was back out<br />

surfing. “It’s hard to believe you<br />

can be right two weeks after<br />

being cut by a chainsaw, but<br />

you can be knocked for six by<br />

something like this.”<br />

But the cause of his pneumonia<br />

remains a mystery.<br />

“It’s the strangest feeling.<br />

I’m the kind of person that<br />

needs explanations and needs a<br />

reason, but this time it could be<br />

anything,” he said.<br />

Mr Sintes said people had<br />

asked if it was related to stress<br />

from his city council work and<br />

the code of conduct investigation<br />

“I can easily say it’s not. I’m not<br />

a stress kind of person. My way<br />

of relaxing is being busy, that’s<br />

different.” Raising the issue has<br />

been a “weight off my shoulders,”<br />

he said.

The Pharmacy at the<br />

heart of Bishopdale<br />

Bishopdale Pharmacy has been in the<br />

heart of the Bishopdale community for<br />

over 50 years.<br />

The Pharmacy has always prided itself<br />

on giving good health care advice and have<br />

recently taken this a step further.<br />

Pharmacy co-owner Amanda Nuttall<br />

says, “we know how much our customers<br />

value being able to speak to a health care<br />

professional – they can just stop in, no<br />

appointments and for free. This is why we<br />

have recently incorporated a pharmacist<br />

into our retail team. It will<br />

be even easier for our<br />

Bishopdale Village Mall<br />

customers to speak to their local health<br />

care professional when they need them.”<br />

Bishopdale Pharmacy is not only<br />

about health, but also well-being. That<br />

sometimes means just being somewhere<br />

nice. People come from all over the city<br />

to choose from the amazing range of<br />

exquisite Christmas decorations and<br />

gorgeous gifts artfully displayed in-store.<br />

You will often hear someone leaving the<br />

pharmacy commenting on the beautiful,<br />

complimentary wrapping of the gifts they<br />

have just purchased.<br />

So if you need health care advice,<br />

enjoyable Christmas shopping and fantastic<br />

service from a team of great people –<br />

Unichem Bishopdale Pharmacy is the right<br />

place for you.<br />

Paper Tree Bishopdale<br />

Nestled in the heart of the Bishopdale shopping<br />

complex, Paper Tree is a light airy bookshop,<br />

welcoming customers through the doors<br />

with tables laden with an eclectic range<br />

Paper Tree Bishopdale was started<br />

two years ago, combining the existing<br />

post office and Kiwibank with a fresh<br />

new bookshop. Their staff are a blend<br />

of experienced bookshop salespeople<br />

FUTURE BLACK<br />

CAPS: The Breens<br />

Intermediate first XI<br />

have proved they<br />

are one of the best<br />

intermediate teams<br />

in the country after<br />

finishing third at the<br />

National Primary<br />

School Cup.<br />

Breens among NZ’s top<br />

intermediate cricket sides<br />

THE BREENS Intermediate first<br />

XI cricket team finished third<br />

at the National Primary School<br />

Cup in Lincoln.<br />

The team put together three<br />

gutsy performances in what<br />

coach Jono Collins said were<br />

“appalling conditions” to finish<br />

in the top three against six of the<br />

best intermediate-aged teams in<br />

New Zealand.<br />

Collins said the result was<br />

even more impressive given the<br />

other schools in the tournament<br />

were either private or had much<br />

bigger rolls.<br />

Although Breens only won<br />

one out of their five games and<br />

one match was abandoned,<br />

they were able to grab third in<br />

Key<br />

• Ryman village<br />

• Proposed village<br />

the knockout-style tournament<br />

because their net run-rate was<br />

higher than the three teams<br />

below them.<br />

Collins said the result was by<br />

far the best Breens have achieved<br />

at a national level.<br />

“We haven’t even come<br />

remotely close to a result like<br />

this before. It was an amazing<br />

achievement for a school like<br />

ours.”<br />

The highlight of the<br />

tournament came when<br />

Breens defeated Raroa Normal<br />

Intermediate, of Wellington, by<br />

six wickets in their first game.<br />

The team were anchored by<br />

a quick-fire 52 from opening<br />

batsman Connor Stewart.<br />

Breens’ were also aided by<br />

standout performances from No<br />

who finished as the tournament’s<br />

Collins said “everyone did<br />

their part with the ball.”<br />

Neville Peck watched his<br />

grandson Thomas Langdon<br />

play in the tournament and<br />

said the way he and his<br />

teammates performed was “quite<br />

outstanding.”<br />

Breens continued their good<br />

form by winning another<br />

tournament against the best<br />

intermediate schools in the city<br />

on Tuesday. Collins said the<br />

team were enjoying “riding the<br />

wave of success.”<br />

School girls volleyball team<br />

celebrate after winning the<br />

South Island junior champs.<br />

BURNSIDE HIGH School have<br />

brought a title home from the<br />

South Island junior volleyball<br />

champs at Dunedin’s Edgar<br />

Centre.<br />

Burnside’s girls A team won<br />

the year 9-10 division one title,<br />

finishing ahead of 16 teams from<br />

across the South Island.<br />

Coach Sam Ryburn said they<br />

only lost one game in pool play to<br />

city rivals St Margaret’s College.<br />

Ryburn said although it had<br />

been a “pretty tight competition,”<br />

the team eventually made up for<br />

the loss, defeating St Margaret’s<br />

two games to one in the final.<br />

“We have a pretty well-rounded<br />

team of players and really played<br />

well as a team.”<br />

The win capped off a successful<br />

tournament for Christchurch<br />

school girls, with St Margaret’s<br />

finishing second and St Andrew’s<br />

A taking third.<br />

Riccarton High School’s<br />

boys team also won their<br />

competition, finishing above 20<br />

other teams.<br />

Christchurch players also<br />

cleaned up the tournament’s<br />

individual awards, earning eight<br />

of the 12 slots in the girls alltournament<br />

team and six spots in<br />

the boys all-tournament team.<br />

The most valuable players in<br />

the girls and boys competitions<br />

were Burnside’s Taylah Holdem<br />

and Riccarton’s Joe Baxter.<br />

Ryburn said the strong<br />

performance from Canterbury<br />

schools was “really positive” and<br />

could create “definite pathways”<br />

for young volleyballers to gain<br />

athletic scholarships overseas in<br />

the future.<br />

Both Burnside and Riccarton<br />

hope to continue their good<br />

form. Burnside’s girls team are<br />

competing at the Australian<br />

Pump track<br />

likely for<br />

next year<br />

A NEW pump track for Shirley<br />

could be installed by mid-way<br />

through next year.<br />

At a meeting on Friday, the<br />

Papanui-Innes Community<br />

Board said it was working with<br />

the council’s parks team to<br />

discuss options to get the project<br />

over the line by the end of the<br />

current financial year.<br />

It was previously said that a<br />

decision on funding would not be<br />

made before the start of the council’s<br />

2021-2031 Long Term Plan.<br />

Papanui Ward board member<br />

Emma Norrish said they were<br />

also seeking support from<br />

community groups, given the<br />

benefits the park would have for<br />

Shirley residents.<br />

“With nothing planned in the<br />

next 10 years, it is the perfect opportunity<br />

to make it an appealing,<br />

usable community space.”<br />

By way of a petition, primary<br />

school pupils in Shirley asked<br />

the city council to install a pump<br />

track at the Shirley Community<br />

Reserve where they could ride<br />

their skateboards, scooters and<br />

bikes.<br />

The petition was started by<br />

pupil Shannon Smith and was<br />

presented to the Papanui-Innes<br />

Community Board in August.<br />

Reunion for freezing workers<br />

FORMER EMPLOYEES of the<br />

Canterbury Freezing Works,<br />

which opened on Belfast Rd in<br />

the late 1800s and shut down in<br />

2008, have reunited to celebrate<br />

the 10th anniversary of its<br />

closure.<br />

Around 200 ex-staff members<br />

met at The Bower hotel on November<br />

17 to exchange stories of<br />

their time at the freezing works<br />

and reconnect with old friends.<br />

Those who attended ranged<br />

in age, with some guests having<br />

started at the freezing works in<br />

the early 1950s.<br />

Loyal employee Hooch Fonotia<br />

(real name John) who organised<br />

the event, was a workhorse at the<br />

freezing works for 45 years, starting<br />

at the age of 18 and finishing<br />

the day the plant closed its doors<br />

for the last time.<br />

Mr Fonotia said his time at the<br />

plant had played a huge part in<br />

shaping who he is today and said<br />

the reunion brought back many<br />

fond memories.<br />

“The job always meant more to<br />

me than money.”<br />

“I made a hell of a lot of<br />

friends.”<br />

Mr Fonotia said: “It was a really<br />

good feeling to see all sorts of<br />

people, as many had gone their<br />

separate ways and not seen each<br />

other since the closure.”<br />

Guests celebrated with a slice<br />

of cake and were surprised by an<br />

appearance and speech by secretary<br />

of the New Zealand Meat<br />

Workers Union’s Canterbury<br />

branch Bill Watt.<br />

Mr Watt said the get-together<br />

was a great way to celebrate the<br />

history and people associated<br />

with a workplace that shaped<br />

Canterbury’s economic and social<br />

landscape for over 100 years.<br />

“It was a really good function.”<br />

Mr Watt said the event could<br />

have potentially been “the last<br />

hurrah” for some of freezing<br />

works longest-serving employees,<br />

making the event even more<br />

special.<br />

REUNITED: (From left to right) – John (Hooch) Fonotia, Ross Blakley, Janine, and Graham Finiki<br />

were just some of over 200 former employees of the Canterbury Freezing Works who reunited<br />

for the 10th anniversary of its closure.<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

“There were some there that<br />

may not to be able to do it again.”<br />

Mr Watt said, in its day, the<br />

Canterbury Freezing Works was<br />

one of the biggest producers and<br />

exporters of lamb products in<br />

New Zealand.<br />

Its closure in 2008 led to the<br />

loss of 250 jobs.

Stolen rabbits make happy return<br />

NOR’WEST NEWS<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

BUNNY BANDITS have returned<br />

two pet rabbits to a pre-school<br />

after outrage on social media.<br />

The two bunny sisters, Ruby and<br />

Rose, were stolen from BestStart<br />

Hei Hei on November 30.<br />

Two hutches, rabbit food and<br />

a wooden baby fence were also<br />

taken. It was the second burglary<br />

in two nights at the pre-school.<br />

During the first one, a Civil<br />

Defence kit and two shade sails<br />

were stolen.<br />

The rabbits and a hutch were<br />

returned on <strong>December</strong> 3 after<br />

CCTV footage of the offenders<br />

was published on Facebook and on<br />

Stuff.<br />

BestStart Hei Hei pre-school<br />

manager Melitta Fielding narrowly<br />

missed the burglars returning the<br />

rabbits.<br />

“A friend has a surveillance<br />

camera and saw the car driving<br />

down the road with a rabbit cage<br />

on the back . . . by the time I got<br />

there they had dumped them<br />

down the side of the building and<br />

the rabbits were in the hutch.”<br />

She said the children loved<br />

having them back.<br />

“They were so excited when they<br />

saw the cage.”<br />

Miss Fielding believed media<br />

coverage of the thefts may have<br />

pressured the thieves to return the<br />

rabbits.<br />

Nothing else stolen in the<br />

burglaries has been returned.<br />

HAPPY DAYS: Cameron Denson, 2, Jaxon Bain, 3, teacher Abbie Young, Elliot Jolly, 4, Alexander Bromell, 2, and Lachan Preddy,<br />

TĀTOU KO MERE E WHAKAPONO ANA<br />

MESSAGE FROM THE BOARD<br />

This year has been particularly special in that so many of our past students and staff<br />

have responded to our call to join a new group. Named Rauru, the group has been<br />

formed to strengthen and support our Marian College community. Past students and<br />

staff of Marian College, St Mary’s College (Christchurch) and McKillop College, are<br />

warmly invited to register for Rauru and help us shape the future of Marian.<br />

Collective dialogue and strategic visioning are underway as we prepare for a new<br />

school. Work includes development of a brief to ensure our Special Catholic Character,<br />

values and culture are captured and reflected in our new school.<br />

We appreciate Marian College is part of the bigger picture and we support the Bishop<br />

in taking due care of process and in making informed decisions for the benefit of the<br />

Catholic Diocese of Christchurch as a whole. The old saying is true – good things<br />

take time.<br />

Thank you to our Board of Trustees, our school staff and community, and members of<br />

the Marian Foundation for your support and fantastic work throughout <strong>2018</strong>.<br />

To our Marian girls – relax and enjoy a well-earned holiday. We look forward to<br />

having you back refreshed, inspired and ready for 2019 at Marian College.<br />

And finally, congratulations to our <strong>2018</strong> Marian leavers:<br />

we wish you all the very best and please stay in touch.<br />

Wishing you good health and blessings this Christmas.<br />

Jan Paterson<br />

Marian College Board of Trustees<br />

THE GIFT OF GIVING<br />

Our Young Vinnies Group helps support the important work of the<br />

Society of St Vincent de Paul. Recently the group spent a lunchtime<br />

wrapping Christmas presents for the Vinnie’s Christmas Party for<br />

people in need.<br />

Marian College has a long tradition of service. Both students and staff<br />

members are actively involved and contribute positively to the wider<br />

community. All students complete at least six hours of meaningful<br />

service within the school and community every year.<br />

PRIZE WINNERS<br />

WHIRLWIND<br />

WOW TRIP<br />

Congratulations to Catherine Ryan (right)<br />

and Louise Daly (left) who have been<br />

awarded <strong>2018</strong> Marian College dux and<br />

proxime accessit respectively.<br />

Marian College Principal Mary-Lou<br />

Davidson says major prize winners<br />

demonstrate exceptional performance<br />

and dedication across all aspects of life<br />

at Marian College – in academia, special<br />

character, leadership, music, sport,<br />

environment, culture and service.<br />

The Marian College PTA Grace Awards<br />

are very special awards for senior students<br />

who quietly go about their learning, being<br />

kind and caring, participating in school<br />

life and sometimes managing through<br />

challenges. These students often go ‘under<br />

the radar’ and as the award criteria says<br />

– they just get on with school and are not<br />

always officially recognised. This year<br />

Grace Awards were presented to Mia<br />

Blyth, Renee Rae, Zoe Frame, Molly Ford<br />

and Hannah Manalaysay.<br />

A full list of prize recipients and<br />

photographs are on the College website.<br />

IT’S<br />

BUSINESS TIME!<br />

Recently, Year 10 Marian College<br />

students had the opportunity to pitch<br />

their business ideas to a panel of judges<br />

as part of the three-day Young Enterprise<br />

BP Business Challenge programme.<br />

The hands-on learning event creates<br />

opportunities for students to develop<br />

their skills, engage with local business<br />

people and learn how a good business<br />

works. The programme covers learning<br />

in English, Mathematics and Statistics,<br />

Social Sciences, Digital Technology and<br />

Commerce subjects.<br />

Described by some as the highlight<br />

of the year, senior students studying<br />

textiles at Marian College have the<br />

opportunity to travel to Wellington for a<br />

two-day whirlwind WOWtrip. The group<br />

experienced the World of WearableArt<br />

Awards Show, explored two tertiary<br />

institutes offering textile and design<br />

programmes and visited the Beehive.<br />

“The show was incredible with amazing<br />

outfits and dancers. This was a wonderful<br />

way to end the term,” says Year 12 Marian<br />

College student Phoebe O’Regan.<br />

The group also attended the Suffrage 125<br />

exhibition Whakatū Wāhine at Museum of<br />

New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa.<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 2015, “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 />

Action looms<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 />

20 1, earthquake.<br />

The removal o funding<br />

prompted community board<br />

chairwoman Ali Jones to threaten<br />

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

in the ditch” project.<br />

Ms Jone said the board’s role<br />

is to represen the community,<br />

and by gathering signatures from<br />

residents, it was fulfi ling that<br />

role.<br />

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

board is to represent and act<br />

as advocate for the interests of its<br />

community and this is what we<br />

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

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

Cave Rock<br />

Apartments’<br />

owners<br />

expect EQC<br />

sign-off<br />

this week<br />

• By Sarla Donovan<br />

THE OWNERS of Sumner’s Cave<br />

Rock Apartments ar expecting the<br />

Earthquake Commi sion to sign-off<br />

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

Body corporate chairman Mike<br />

White said the group had gone<br />

into mediation with IAG and EQC<br />

on February 20, 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 />

20 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, 20 1,<br />

earthquakes and were demolished in<br />

late 2012. In 2016, 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 2020 cha lenge.<br />

“In two years’ time, we’ l be<br />

going back to try and win the<br />

title,” he said.<br />

The bylaw comes as an increasing<br />

number of mobile traders<br />

Pupils learn about role of war horses<br />

GR ENDALE SCHOOL pupils<br />

have taken a step back in time,<br />

s eing first hand what men and<br />

horses l oked like during war.<br />

The New Zealand Mounted<br />

Rifles Charitable Trust president<br />

Mark A pleton and member<br />

Mike Donaldson t ok their<br />

horses to the sch ol on Monday,<br />

in a bid to educate pupils on the<br />

sacrifice their ancestors made in<br />

World War 1 and World War 2.<br />

Mr A pleton and Mr Donaldson<br />

a rived a the sch ol dre sed<br />

in World War 1 uniforms while<br />

their horses Tommy and Kruze<br />

wore 1 0-year-old sa dles donated<br />

to the trust.<br />

The presentation is a prelude<br />

to the Gr endale Recreation Reserve<br />

Management Commi t e’s<br />

upcoming Anzac Day service.<br />

As a tribute to those who<br />

served, members of the trust will<br />

ride horseback to the service.<br />

Mr A pleton said it was<br />

important children were<br />

educated on what soldiers<br />

wen through during World<br />

War 1 and World War 2.<br />

But he said the presentation<br />

didn’t go into t o much detail<br />

and was more of a “show and<br />

te l” to make them aware of what<br />

the soldiers l oked like.<br />

Children were shown the type<br />

of kits horses were required to<br />

wear in the war.<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 />

since the age of 19.<br />

Ri carton Community Board<br />

has b en given the gr en ligh to<br />

Templeton.<br />

Mayor Lia ne Dalziel told the<br />

board on Thursday it had the okay<br />

from the city council to make a<br />

submi sion if Fulton Hogan a plies<br />

for a resource consen to create a<br />

qua ry.<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 />

the crysta line silica risk,” he said.<br />

Mr Mora said the community<br />

board wi l be “representing and<br />

advocating” for the Templeton<br />

community.<br />
