Call for urgent action<br />

to repair rough roads<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

URGENT ACTION is being<br />

called to address rough roads in<br />

the eastern suburbs.<br />

Coastal-Burwood Community<br />

Board chairwoman Kim Money<br />

said the community cannot<br />

continue to wait on plans and<br />

strategies to be implemented, the<br />

roads need to be fixed now.<br />

City council<br />

staff is arranging<br />

a seminar<br />

in the new<br />

year to review<br />

road conditions<br />

and to<br />

Kim Money<br />

look at pedestrian<br />

crossings<br />

on the east.<br />

Each board member will<br />

discuss what roads they believe<br />

need to be prioritised for<br />

resurfacing or upgrades in the<br />

east.<br />

“We really need to know where<br />

things sit in the programme . . . it<br />

is just too long. Things need to be<br />

done,” Ms Money said.<br />

In 2016, the city council budgeted<br />

$680 million to fix roads in<br />

the Burwood-<strong>Pegasus</strong> area over<br />

10 years.<br />

Its total budget for resurfacing<br />

for the financial year of 2019-<br />

2020 is $12.9 million.<br />

Portions of roads planned to<br />

be repaired next year include<br />

Owles Tce, Avonside Drive and<br />

Union St for the city council’s<br />

Carriageway & Footpath Programme<br />

20<strong>18</strong>-21.<br />

A key area under scrutiny<br />

is the roading between<br />

Wainoni Rd/New Brighton Rd<br />

roundabout and the Bower Ave/<br />

New Brighton Rd intersection.<br />

The board has asked city council<br />

staff to investigate if it can be<br />

put back to its original condition<br />

post-earthquake.<br />

“The road is a disgrace there,<br />

there are holes everywhere . . . it<br />

is a very bad stretch of road,” Ms<br />

Money said.<br />

BATTERED:<br />

The Coastal-<br />

Burwood<br />

Community<br />

Board has<br />

asked city<br />

the New<br />

Brighton and<br />

Wainoni Rds<br />

roundabout<br />

and the<br />

City council planning and<br />

Lynette Ellis said a project of<br />

repair for the road is in the “early<br />

planning phrase.”<br />

OUR FEATURE on Hampshire St (pages 4,<br />

5 and 6) brings back some memories.<br />

I could tell you a few stories but in a<br />

family newspaper like <strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong>, I<br />

probably wouldn’t get away with it.<br />

Needless to say, back in the day they<br />

were great times in the east . . . probably still are, it’s just another<br />

generation having them.<br />

A lot of my mates were from Hampshire St and its surrounding<br />

streets, and our social lives radiated through Aranui and across<br />

the eastern suburbs – usually from Waimairi Beach to South<br />

Brighton. Basically anywhere there was a good party.<br />

All you had to do was cruise the streets and you’d find a party<br />

happening somewhere. And they were pretty damn good. Unless<br />

the Hampshires arrived . . .<br />

Potential drainage trial concern<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

A POTENTIAL flood<br />

prevention measure may<br />

not be a silver bullet for<br />

solving drainage issues at the<br />

Southshore estuary.<br />

THe city council will trial a<br />

groyne in Sumner to prevent<br />

problems there. If that works<br />

it will then<br />

be trialled in<br />

Ebbtide St,<br />

Southshore.<br />

But doubt<br />

has been<br />

cast over<br />

whether the<br />

trial to place<br />

David East<br />

a temporary<br />

groyne at<br />

the drain in<br />

Burgess St, Sumner, will work at<br />

the estuary.<br />

Coastal Ward city councillor<br />

David East, said the Sumner<br />

waves and the estuary at<br />

Southshore are “totally different<br />

conditions.”<br />

“In the meantime, we have<br />

just got to carry on with a bit<br />

of experimentation with some<br />

options and get the problem<br />

sorted once and for all,” he said.<br />

It comes after the Coastal-<br />

Burwood Community Board<br />

raised concern over inefficient<br />

stormwater drains in Southshore<br />

filling up when it rains heavily<br />

and the water being unable to<br />

flow out to the estuary.<br />

Board deputy chairman Tim<br />

Sintes said he also has doubts the<br />

trial will work at Ebbtide St, but<br />

leaving it as it is was “not an option.”<br />

City council land drainage<br />

manager Keith Davison said<br />

while staff are looking at the<br />

trial on Burgess St, there are no<br />

firm plans at this stage.<br />

THe temporary groyne would<br />

aim to artificially lower sand<br />

levels on one side which, if<br />

placed next to an outlet, may<br />

help clear it.<br />

But a city council report said<br />

there would need to be natural<br />

tidal waves to move the sand<br />

laterally.<br />

It said while natural tidal<br />

effects are expected at Sumner,<br />

there is no certainty it will work<br />

at drain outlets in the estuary<br />

such as Ebbtide St.<br />

THe board recently inquired<br />

with city council staff about the<br />

status of Ebbtide St drain after<br />

concerns it was not working<br />

properly when it rained.<br />

Mr Davison said during a<br />

heavy rain event when the tide is<br />

UNCERTAINTY:<br />

A potential<br />

flood prevention<br />

measure may<br />

not be able to fix<br />

flooding issues<br />

of drains within<br />

the Southshore<br />

estuary. ​<br />

high, the drain will be below<br />

the tide level which means<br />

it occasionally has to send a<br />

temporary pump out.<br />

He said when there is a<br />

rainstorm the city council will<br />

ensure the drain is clear of sand<br />

and isn’t blocked.<br />

“At this stage we will continue<br />

this method and monitor the<br />

effectiveness of it,” he said.<br />

Placing a temporary groyne<br />

at Ebbtide St will be dependent<br />

on how successful the trial is<br />

at Sumner and if the estuary<br />

conditions are suitable, Mr<br />

Davison said.<br />

Hampshire St: Transformed into<br />

Hampshire St in Aranui<br />

has had a reputation<br />

over the years as a<br />

place you dare to tread.<br />

But it is undergoing a<br />

transformation. Julia<br />

Evans reports<br />

IN THE PAST it has been<br />

labelled the most feared street in<br />

the city.<br />

Sirens, stabbings, sexual assaults,<br />

fires, shootings, gangs,<br />

murders, high unemployment<br />

rates and low incomes have been<br />

synonymous with Hampshire St<br />

for the better part of its history.<br />

A stark contrast to its namesake,<br />

the area of Hampshire in<br />

the United Kingdom, which has a<br />

Christchurch city and Avon River<br />

of its own.<br />

Hampshire calls forth images<br />

of a rolling English countryside<br />

rather than the street police in<br />

the 1990s would often refer to as<br />

“The Reservation.”<br />

Erina Staples has lived on and<br />

around Hampshire St for 27 years<br />

and said the area used to be<br />

“really rough.”<br />

She said there were fights often<br />

between the Mongrel Mob and<br />

Black Power gangs when the pub,<br />

BANABA BANABA has lived<br />

on Hampshire St for at least 20<br />

years.<br />

It could be 30.<br />

“I’ve forgotten, I’ve had other<br />

things on my mind.”<br />

He’s spent the last eight years<br />

in his modern brick unit after<br />

moving from down the other<br />

end of the street.<br />

Mr Banaba had to move<br />

after the February 22, 2011,<br />

earthquake destroyed the<br />

second storey of his home.<br />

“You couldn’t use the<br />

bathroom or go upstairs. I<br />

like it here better anyway,” he<br />

said.<br />

“There aren’t as many people<br />

doing wheelspins outside the<br />

house here, its quieter.”<br />

Originally from the Cook<br />

Islands, Mr Banaba moved to<br />

Auckland and lived in Porirua<br />

with his brother.<br />

He then moved down to<br />

known as the Hampshire Hilton,<br />

was open.<br />

“It was terrible when the pub<br />

was open . . . there were fights<br />

outside and the kids would hang<br />

outside and see it all,” she said.<br />

HOME SWEET HOME: Banaba Banaba can’t say how long he’s<br />

lived on Hampshire St, but he wouldn’t live anywhere else.<br />

Hampshire St and hasn’t left.<br />

“I like it here. At my old<br />

place the backyard was too<br />

big to mow on my own,” Mr<br />

But the Mongrel Mob and Black<br />

Power haven’t been the only gangs<br />

to be prominent in the area.<br />

In the 70s, there was the Flagon<br />

Wagon gang, and later the fully<br />

patched Hampshires. They tried<br />

Banaba said.<br />

Now he mows the front lawns<br />

of most of his neighbours and<br />

said the area has a strong sense<br />

to rule the roost in the eastern<br />

suburbs from their base in the<br />

streets around Hampshire St.<br />

But they weren’t always the<br />

victor.<br />

In the 1970s, surfers from the<br />

of community.<br />

“I like helping,” Mr Banaba<br />

said.<br />

He also liked playing darts<br />

at the Eastern Eagles Rugby<br />

League Club clubrooms.<br />

“I stopped playing when I<br />

reached the top. I said: ‘I’ve had<br />

enough now’.”<br />

Mr Banaba said Wainoni<br />

Park was a great spot on<br />

Hampshire St.<br />

“When my grandkids<br />

come over, I say go over to<br />

the park and play. I can walk<br />

over with them and watch,” he<br />

said.<br />

However, Mr Banaba said he<br />

knew there were gangs in the<br />

area, but they mostly kept to<br />

themselves.<br />

“Black Power and the<br />

Mongrel Mob, they don’t cause<br />

any problems,” he said.<br />

“It’s not as bad as people<br />

think. People tell me it’s bad<br />

but it’s not.”<br />

New Brighton area took matters<br />

into their own hands. About 20<br />

in a convoy of cars headed to<br />

mates was jumped by the Flagon<br />

Wagon gang the night before.<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

a real sense of community<br />

“One of the young surfie guys<br />

got beaten up by the Flagon<br />

Wagon so we decided to go<br />

around there. We rang the police<br />

first and told them we were going<br />

there to sort them out,” long-time<br />

surfer Keiry Bennett recalled this<br />

week.<br />

The Flagon Wagon gang<br />

members were swinging chains<br />

as the surfies approached. A few<br />

moments later it was all on.<br />

“We grabbed their chains,<br />

jumped up and down on the car<br />

roofs . . . and when we were done<br />

the police were waiting around<br />

the corner to sort them out,” he<br />

said.<br />

“They didn’t beat up surfers<br />

after that, that’s for sure.”<br />

The Hampshires emerged<br />

in the 1980s from the Flagon<br />

Wagon, and then faded away.<br />

They were a feared gang in the<br />

east, who would turn up to halls<br />

having 21sts and other parties<br />

and cause and get involved in<br />

carnage.<br />

As the years rolled on the<br />

Ruthless Boot Boys, an odd fit<br />

in an ever-growing Maori and<br />

Polynesian population in<br />

Aranui, and the Mongrel Mob<br />

and Black Power would take up<br />

residence.<br />

Hampshire St was given the<br />

HISTORY: A Hampshire gang<br />

member during the 1980s.<br />

status as unofficial worst street<br />

in the city – TV3’s Campbell Live<br />

used the term when discussing<br />

the merger of Aranui schools.<br />

But the street’s notoriety went<br />

to a national and international<br />

level in September 2009 when the<br />

bodies of Tisha Lowry, 28, and<br />

Rebecca Chamberlain, 33, were<br />

found under the floorboards of<br />

one of the units on the corner of<br />

Hampshire St and Wainoni Rd.<br />

It became known as The House<br />

of Horrors.<br />

Mrs Chamberlain’s husband,<br />

Jason Somerville, was jailed for<br />

their murders. He had killed Ms<br />

Lowry, who was his neighbour,<br />

in September 2008.<br />

A year later he killed his wife.<br />

The House Of Horrors<br />

would later be burnt down –<br />

culprits still unknown. The<br />

property was bought by the city<br />

council and turned into a small<br />

park Ripene Ma Reserve – White<br />

Ribbon Reserve, which honours<br />

those who lost their lives to<br />

violence.<br />

But for all of this Ms Staples<br />

feels “pretty lucky” to live in<br />

Hampshire St.<br />

She has lived in the new state<br />

house for the last two years, but<br />

raised her children in various<br />

spots along the street.<br />

Her oldest is now 27,<br />

her youngest daughter is a<br />

16-year-old student at Haeata<br />

Community Campus, her<br />

mother lives just around the<br />

corner.<br />

was discovered Jason<br />

Somerville had buried<br />

the bodies of his wife<br />

and neighbour in<br />

2008 and 2009 was<br />

destroyed by fire.<br />

Ms Staples said a lot of that had<br />

to do with the February 22, 2011,<br />

earthquake, which provided an<br />

opportunity for Hampshire St to<br />

regenerate.<br />

“There’s a lot of community<br />

and it’s good having the police<br />

around. They come in and say<br />

hello, make sure all the kids and<br />

teenagers respect them. You don’t<br />

see that in every street.”<br />

“I actually feel a lot safer here<br />

than I would in town. Everyone’s<br />

got your back here, everyone<br />

makes sure you’re safe,” she said.<br />

New library, park upgrade and leadership<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

WHILE HAMPSHIRE St has<br />

had a chequered past – it’s<br />

future is full of rejuvenation and<br />

community spirit.<br />

Recent years have seen the<br />

opening of a new library, upgrades<br />

at Wainoni Park and the<br />

rise of Aranui Community Trust<br />

Incorporated Society, which runs<br />

the tool shed, a walking group,<br />

community<br />

lunches,<br />

amongst a<br />

range of other<br />

services.<br />

Rob<br />

Davidson,<br />

who is the<br />

Rob Davidson<br />

husband of<br />

Mayor Lianne<br />

Dalziel, has been chairman of<br />

ACTIS for <strong>18</strong> years.<br />

“I went to the recent Affirm<br />

celebration and I sat there with<br />

Sandy Kaa, our kaumatua and<br />

looked around at all the positive<br />

changes. I actually became quite<br />

emotional,” he said.<br />

“The people were just so engaged.”<br />

Mr Davidson said the area had<br />

managed to achieve so much in a<br />

short period of time.<br />

“There’s the new $6.5 million<br />

community hall . . .the new<br />

library and we’ve shifted the playground<br />

from behind the shops,<br />

there’s been community plantings<br />

days, it’s really opened up now so<br />

houses overlook it and it’s much<br />

safer,” Mr Davidson said.<br />

Hampshire St’s high deprivation<br />

index and low income rates<br />

meant ACTIS’s role in the community<br />

was on-going.<br />

“You have to continue your<br />

support. You can’t go in and then<br />

leave again . . . it’s the sort of<br />

thing we’ve got to carry on.”<br />

The community spirit would<br />

see the area flourish in the future,<br />

Mr Davidson said.<br />

Murals have been painted on<br />

the shop walls, courtesy of street<br />

artists and students from Haeata<br />

Community Campus<br />

as part of an ongoing<br />

campaign by the Aranui<br />

neighbourhood policing<br />

team to brighten up the<br />

area.<br />

Constable Jules<br />

Atkinson said the<br />

murals brought a<br />

passion for art and the<br />

community together.<br />

“This project is about<br />

uniting us all and engaging<br />

with one another. We’ve found a<br />

common interest and the locals<br />

Silivelio Fasi<br />

Te Kupenga o Aranui youth<br />

worker and mentor Silivelio<br />

Fasi, 28, painted<br />

one of the murals and<br />

was raised in the area.<br />

“One of the key<br />

changes is the park.<br />

When I was younger<br />

there was an old half<br />

court and that was<br />

about it, now there’s a<br />

flash basketball court<br />

and a path. It’s a lot<br />

more vibrant,” he said.<br />

Fasi said the look of the<br />

area was changing, which was<br />

helping outward perception.<br />

“There’s always been gang activity<br />

and things. But at the same<br />

time there’s a lot of kids having<br />

a lot of fun. Biking up and down<br />

the street, going to the shops and<br />

sitting outside having a pie.”<br />

Fasi said when you go down<br />

Hampshire St everyone says<br />

hello, gives the nod of a head or<br />

the friendly eyebrow raise.<br />

“When I was young, people<br />

thought A-town was scary.<br />

But I strongly believe there are<br />

downsides to any community.<br />

There has just been a magnifying<br />

glass over Aranui.”<br />

Call for urgent repair<br />

of rough roads<br />

•From page 1<br />

The budget is more than $1.1<br />

million but a time line for when<br />

the project would begin was not<br />

available.<br />

The state of Breezes Rd is also<br />

planned to be discussed<br />

at the meeting.<br />

last month city councillor<br />

Glenn Livingstone<br />

has gone to the city<br />

council asking to have<br />

heavy vehicles rerouted<br />

to Anzac Drive.<br />

He also wanted a section<br />

of road on Breezes<br />

Rd between Wainoni Rd<br />

and Pages Rd in front of Haeata<br />

Community Campus to be<br />

repaired.<br />

Cr Livingstone said he is<br />

really pleased there will be a<br />

seminar on the issue.<br />

As part of the seminar, the<br />

board will also look at pedestrian<br />

crossings.<br />

Cr Livingstone said he was<br />

contacted by an elderly woman<br />

living adjacent Pages<br />

Rd wanting a crossing<br />

installed from<br />

Marlow Rd to Pages<br />

He said it has since<br />

task, as there are “hundreds”<br />

that need fixing at this stage.<br />

A NEW Brighton dairy owner<br />

robbed at gunpoint in February<br />

“feels sorry” for the two men in<br />

jail for the crime.<br />

Beachcomber Dairy owner<br />

Zeny Cargill and her elderly<br />

mother were robbed by the men<br />

who took more than $2000 in<br />

cigarettes and cash.<br />

“You do feel sorry for them<br />

in some way . . . sometimes I<br />

don’t know who is to blame. The<br />

parents or maybe the bringing<br />

up,” said Ms Cargill.<br />

She said every person has a<br />

“sad story.”<br />

Tanui Smith, 23, was sentenced<br />

last week to three years and one<br />

month in prison for pointing<br />

a pistol at Ms Cargill and her<br />

mother.<br />

Jayden Peta Brown, 24, was<br />

jailed for four years and one<br />

month for the robbery and the<br />

earlier robbery of a liquor shop<br />

in St Albans. He was also driving<br />

with excess breath-alcohol and<br />

while his licence was suspended.<br />

He has been disqualified from<br />

driving for six months.<br />

Ms Cargill said Brown had not<br />

learned his lesson as it was his<br />

second robbery.<br />

She described working at the<br />

dairy as “living on the edge” but<br />

said it was part of the job.<br />

Having worked at the<br />

Beachcomber Dairy for about 30<br />

years, Ms Cargill said she had<br />

lost count of how many times she<br />

had been robbed.<br />

“I don’t even think about it<br />

really. I try to forget it,” she said.<br />

The dairy has been robbed<br />

at gunpoint twice since the<br />

February 22, 2011, earthquake.<br />

Ms Cargill said she doesn’t<br />

know when it is going to happen<br />

again.<br />

Lifeguards<br />

brings their<br />

specialised<br />

skills home<br />

SOUTH BRIGHTON’S Harry<br />

Roberts and Waimairi’s Rachael<br />

Cleeve were among 20 top<br />

volunteer surf lifesavers to attend<br />

the National Lifeguard School.<br />

They received an advanced lifeguard<br />

award at the school in New<br />

Plymouth, which was run by Surf<br />

Life Saving New Zealand.<br />

Based at the Fitzroy Surf Life<br />

Saving Club, the three-day school<br />

takes top volunteer surf lifeguards<br />

and teaches them advanced skills<br />

including rock rescues, helicopter<br />

operations, advanced first-aid and<br />

rigorous fitness challenges.<br />

All participants take the<br />

specialised skills back to their<br />

beaches, where they will ultimately<br />

help save lives and help<br />

keep beach-goers safe during the<br />

holiday season.<br />

Hamish Clayton from Waihi<br />

Beach took home the highlyvalued<br />

top candidate award.<br />

Surf Life Saving New Zealand<br />

national education manager<br />

Belinda Slement said the<br />

lifeguards showed exceptional<br />

leadership, teamwork and<br />

decision-making skills.<br />

HOOCH FONOTIA was<br />

<strong>18</strong>-years-old when he walked<br />

through the doors of the<br />

Canterbury Freezing Works in<br />

Belfast for the first time.<br />

His reason for taking the job<br />

was simple, he needed one.<br />

Mr Fonotia, who lives in<br />

Aranui, had no idea that this<br />

decision would lead to some of<br />

the best memories and strongest<br />

friendships he would ever have.<br />

After 45 years service at the<br />

age of 64, he was forced to call<br />

it quits when the plant closed<br />

down, causing about 250 staff<br />

members to lose their jobs.<br />

Mr Fonotia said his time at the<br />

plant had played a huge part in<br />

shaping who he is today.<br />

“The job always meant more to<br />

me than money – I made a hell<br />

of a lot of friends.”<br />

Mr Fonotia and other former<br />

freezing works employees<br />

reunited to mark the 10th<br />

anniversary of its closure on<br />

November 17.<br />

Mr Fonotia organised the<br />

event in which about 200 former<br />

staff members met at The Bower<br />

hotel to exchange stories about<br />

their time at the freezing works<br />

and reconnect with old friends.<br />

Said Mr Fonotia: “It was a<br />

really good feeling to see all<br />

sorts of people, as many had<br />

gone their separate ways and<br />

not seen each other since the<br />

closure.”<br />

Guests celebrated with a slice<br />

of cake and speeches from Mr<br />

Fonotia and New Zealand Meat<br />

Workers Union Canterbury<br />

branch secretary Bill Watt.<br />

Mr Watt said Mr Fonotia was<br />

the main reason the get-together<br />

had happened. “A lot of credit<br />

has to go to Hooch. It was a<br />

really good function.”<br />

Mr Watt said Mr Fonotia’s<br />

efforts to make the reunion<br />

happen were even more special<br />

given the event could have been<br />

“the last hurrah” for some of the<br />

Sustainability key<br />

to organic farming<br />

There’s something for<br />

everyone in the realm of<br />

organic farming but as far<br />

as Bill Martin is concerned,<br />

it’s all about sustainability.<br />

The Training College<br />

Manager at Lincoln<br />

University’s Biological<br />

Husbandry Unit Organics<br />

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

a surge in enthusiasm for<br />

organic food production<br />

as younger generations<br />

become more aware of<br />

environmental concerns.<br />

He says the growing<br />

popularity of organic<br />

production in recent years<br />

means that graduates are<br />

now taking what they have<br />

learned into a broader<br />

range of sectors.<br />

“It’s not just about<br />

growing, wholesaling<br />

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

going into schools and teaching primary<br />

and secondary schoolers about the<br />

importance of sustainable farming and<br />

gardening and really starting to embed the<br />

philosophy into the education system.”<br />

As far as conventional agricultural<br />

practices are concerned, he says farmers<br />

should be encouraged to optimise their<br />

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

expense of the environment.<br />

“We need to change our agricultural<br />

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

Mr Martin says those interested in a<br />

career in organics should enrol in the<br />

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

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

with or without university entrance.<br />

Introduced last year, it includes Tikanga<br />

and Mahinga Kai components and can<br />

lead to employment in organic primary<br />

production or other sectors related<br />

to organics, especially education and<br />

hospitality.<br />

“The course offers a good grounding<br />

in the principles of organic agriculture,<br />

teaching the philosophies and histories<br />

of organics and providing practical<br />

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

Martin says.<br />

Apply now for the Diploma in Organic<br />

Agri-Food Production and begin studying<br />

in February 2019.<br />

Grow a career<br />

in organics<br />

Lincoln University’s Diploma in Organic Agri-Food Production will prepare<br />

you for work in the organic sector or your own garden or smallholdings. It’s<br />

a full-time, one-year programme that covers the theory and practice behind<br />

contemporary organic agri-food production.<br />

Join us in February to find out what growing organically on an agricultural<br />

scale really means.<br />

Pressure on to<br />

save city’s water<br />

THE CITY council is<br />

taking a myth-busting<br />

approach to remind<br />

residents about the need to<br />

save water this summer.<br />

It has put out a series<br />

of fact-based articles<br />

via its website and<br />

Facebook page in an<br />

effort to correct common<br />

misunderstandings about<br />

water use in Christchurch.<br />

Water supply<br />

programme manager<br />

Helen Beaumont says it’s<br />

important people get the<br />

facts so they understand<br />

the importance of saving<br />

water this summer.<br />

“We’ve had a lot people<br />

effectively calling us out<br />

for asking them to save<br />

water when water bottling<br />

plants are taking it out of<br />

the ground every day. But<br />

there are two problems<br />

with that. Firstly, the city<br />

council doesn’t decide<br />

who can or can’t take<br />

groundwater, Environment<br />

Canterbury does, while<br />

taking environmental<br />

factors into account. And<br />

secondly, the water taken<br />

by water bottling plants<br />

doesn’t actually affect our<br />

public water supply –<br />

they’re separate issues.”<br />

Ms Beaumont says<br />

another common<br />

misunderstanding is<br />

around the need to<br />

conserve water this<br />

summer.<br />

“It’s not that we’re<br />

running out of water.<br />

The problem is we<br />

need to take some<br />

water wells out of service<br />

so we can upgrade them<br />

and stop chlorinating as<br />

fast as possible. If we keep<br />

using too much water, we<br />

have to use more wells to<br />

cope, and then we can’t<br />

work on them. It’s really<br />

that simple,” she says.<br />

A wet start to summer in<br />

Christchurch has seen the<br />

city council’s<br />

online water<br />

dial spend a<br />

number of<br />

consecutive<br />

days in the<br />

“green zone”,<br />

which is where<br />

the city council<br />

wants to see it<br />

stay as the city<br />

moves into the<br />

warmest part of the year.<br />

Ms Beaumont says<br />

the rain means people<br />

generally don’t feel the<br />

need to turn on their<br />

garden sprinklers or<br />

irrigators, which are<br />

Helen<br />

Beaumont<br />

PEGASUS POST<br />

PRECIOUS: Limit the<br />

time you operate your<br />

garden hose.<br />

the biggest household<br />

water users.<br />

“Running a garden<br />

sprinkler or irrigator for<br />

an hour can use up to 1500<br />

litres – or 150 buckets –<br />

of water. That’s a huge<br />

amount when you consider<br />

we’re targeting an average<br />

daily use of 212 litres<br />

per person this summer.<br />

We’re asking people to use<br />

hand-held hoses to water<br />

– during early morning or<br />

late evening – because you<br />

can direct exactly where<br />

the water goes and avoid<br />

wasting it.”<br />

•More water saving tips<br />

are available on the city<br />

council’s website at ccc.<br />

govt.nz/water-savingtips<br />

ADVENTURE: Marian College students spent the day learning about nature<br />

and the history of the uninhabited Quail Island. The year 9 students spent the<br />

day walking, swimming, having a picnic and taking part in games. The school’s<br />

head of social services Anna Perry said the students enjoyed the day and it was<br />

perfect weather time outdoors.

We are a true community school with a long history of serving<br />

christchurch’s North east, proud of our diversity and our close<br />

connections with contributing schools. We have caring and<br />

supportive staff who treat each student as an individual. our<br />

students tell us they value the guidance and support they receive<br />

from staff at Mairehau high School. We offer a wide range of<br />

academic and vocational pathways from school with strong links<br />

to ara and university of canterbury.<br />

What do we value?<br />

• Challenge (always challenge yourself to be the best)<br />

• Achievement (achievement looks differently to different<br />

people. We value achievement in all its many shapes and sizes)<br />

• Responsibility (for yourself, for others and for the environment)<br />

• Empathy (understand the needs of others)<br />

What are our points of difference?<br />

• Small class sizes<br />

• Traditional classrooms and workshop spaces<br />

• A small school with a family atmosphere<br />

• Provision for supported learning in a centre that is<br />

well-designed to suit individuals.<br />

A message from Kane...<br />

Kia ora, my name is Kane. i came from rawhiti Primary School and now i’m a Year 9 student at<br />

Mairehau high School.<br />

When i first came to Mairehau, i was nervous like most people are when they first go to high<br />

school.<br />

But when i came to Mairehau all this changed. everyone is so kind and everyone accepts you<br />

for who are you. Even if you do hit problems, the teachers here are amazing. They listen and<br />

come up with solutions for your problem.<br />

I’ve had a lot of fun talking to different people and making new friends. The<br />

thing i like here is that even the older kids are kind. i always thought the big<br />

kids were intimidating but really they look after us and help us when we<br />

need it. They are senior role models and help us with a lot of activities.<br />

anyway, what i’m trying to say is that at Mairehau we are like a family; we<br />

stick together like glue, we care about everybody and no one is left out.<br />

Junior Gifted and Talented<br />

Investigative Project<br />

Our Year 10 Food students<br />

have been making lunches<br />

for students and staff every<br />

Monday and Tuesday – yum!!<br />

as a small school, Mairehau high School is pleased to be able to<br />

offer a range of different learning opportunities, including a very<br />

strong Gifted and Talented (GaTE) programme, to support our<br />

students.<br />

An important part of our junior GaTE programme is students<br />

volunteering to complete a project. Through consultation with<br />

staff and the wider community, students choose their focus.<br />

Topics can be either academic or non-academic and may<br />

include hobbies, sports, theatre, community service, culture, and<br />

entrepreneurship. There may be ties to their family background,<br />

personal experiences or global issues.<br />

A group of Year 10 GaTE girls displaying a strong interest in<br />

the Visual arts decided they would like to do a mural for a<br />

community group. After consultation with Te Puna Oraka<br />

Barnados early learning centre in Mairehau, the girls decided<br />

to create a mural for their premises. Te Puna Oraka were able to<br />

share information about the history of the area which helped the girls with their design process.<br />

We presented the mural to Te Puna Oraka at a community morning tea event on the 11th of<br />

<strong>December</strong> at their premises.<br />

Gifted and Talented Teacher-in-Charge Angela Marshall says, “We are so lucky to have such a<br />

wonderful group of young people wanting to give back to their community. They enjoy being<br />

creative and working in small groups, knowing we are there to support them every step of the<br />

way. i am very proud of what they have achieved.”<br />

Her services were recognised<br />

when she was presented with a<br />

star by the City Mission as part<br />

of its Walk of Stars pathway<br />

which runs along Oxford Tce.<br />

All of the proceeds from<br />

her baking have gone towards<br />

buying pamper packs full of<br />

Maiyah’s mission is<br />

documented on her Facebook<br />

Videos successful for pupils<br />

CREATIVE DIGITAL videos by<br />

Rawhiti School pupils to promote<br />

recognised with top awards in a<br />

national digital competition.<br />

The schools’ year 7 and 8 digi<br />

advocate for children being cyber<br />

smart.<br />

The awards attracted nearly<br />

500 entries from primary and<br />

country.<br />

The two digital videos designed<br />

by the year 7 and 8 pupils<br />

were The Pass-Bot (passwords<br />

are like underpants) and Digital<br />

Footprints.<br />

The Pass-Bot aimed to teach<br />

children about making “strong”<br />

passwords.<br />

It used the analogy passwords<br />

are like underpants – with the<br />

message not share them with<br />

friends or strangers and change<br />

them regularly.<br />

The video came first in the<br />

in the commercial year 7 and 8<br />

category of the awards.<br />

Their second entry Digital<br />

Footprints, which aims to teach<br />

children that what they post,<br />

comment and how they behave<br />

on the internet, can impact others<br />

and their future.<br />

The school’s year 7 and 8 pupils<br />

were not the only to achieve a<br />

top award with the school’s year<br />

FOCUS ON HEALTH<br />

Dilo Oil – The Remarkable<br />

Skin Rejuvenator<br />

Until Rachel<br />

Hunter’s popular<br />

TV series “TOUR OF<br />

BEAUTY” Dilo Oil was<br />

relatively unknown being<br />

one of the best-kept secrets of<br />

the Pacific Islands. It may however<br />

be the number one natural beauty oil<br />

available as it possesses powerful natural<br />

skin regeneration, anti-aging and healing<br />

properties.<br />

According to ethnobotanist Chris<br />

Kilham, Dilo (pronounced dee-low)<br />

Oil is a powerful skin regenerator as<br />

it is one of the most effective agents<br />

in promoting the regeneration and<br />

formation of new tissue, thereby<br />

accelerating wound healing and the<br />

growth of healthy skin. Dilo Oil is<br />

super-absorbing and nourishing<br />

and can penetrate all three layers<br />

of the skin, offering exceptional<br />

cell hydration and regeneration.<br />

As well as this, Dilo Oil has potent<br />

anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial,<br />

antifungal and antioxidant properties.<br />

Traditionally, Dilo Oil is used to keep the<br />

skin young and youthful and for just about<br />

any skin complaint. Some of the conditions<br />

for which it is considered helpful include<br />

abrasions, cuts and cracks, acne and acne<br />

scars, pimples, blemishes, stretch marks,<br />

wrinkles, blisters, burns (including chemical<br />

and radiation), diabetic sores, rashes, shaving<br />

irritation, dry or scaly skin, eczema, psoriasis,<br />

dermatitis, herpes<br />

sores (cold-sores),<br />

insect bites and stings,<br />

rheumatism, pain, sciatica,<br />

shingles, sunburn, rosacea,<br />

athlete’s foot, skin eruptions,<br />

warts, skin ulcers and sores, nappy<br />

rash and almost any other skin ailment<br />

and often with incredible results.<br />

Many beauty and skincare products<br />

on the market today contain unnatural<br />

ingredients that can be toxic and may<br />

even contribute to disease. Generally<br />

the benefits are exaggerated and often<br />

only temporary or camouflage.<br />

Marshall’s Dilo Oil is 100% pure<br />

and certified organic. It has been<br />

cold-pressed from the Dilo nut and<br />

contains absolutely no additives.<br />

Polynesians and Southeast Asians<br />

have revered Dilo Oil for centuries<br />

believing it to be a sacred gift of<br />

nature and the Gods. Dilo Oil<br />

contains a unique blend of fatty<br />

acids that stimulate and supports<br />

the skins natural healing process through<br />

the growth of new healthy skin tissue. It is a<br />

remarkable product we highly recommend to<br />

everyone. A 50ml bottle is $19.90 and 100ml<br />

only $29.90.<br />

NATURAL HEALING & BEAUTY OIL<br />

As seen on Rachel Hunter’s Tour of Beauty<br />

Revered for centuries by Polynesians & Southeast Asians for its remarkable skin<br />

anti-aging & healing properties, Dilo oil comes from the nut of the sacred Dilo<br />

tree, “the tree of a thousand virtues”. Dilo oil is often called the beauty oil as it<br />

can penetrate all three layers of the skin offering exceptional cell hydration &<br />

regeneration. It has a unique ability to stimulate the growth of healthy skin cells<br />

& this gives it powerful anti-aging & healing properties that can help reduce<br />

lines, blemishes, scars & damage to the skin. It also possesses<br />

anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antifungal & antioxidant properties.<br />

Collagen<br />

The Body’s Youth Protein<br />

Collagen is the primary<br />

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

major component of skin,<br />

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 />

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 />

THE PAPANUI-Innes<br />

Community Board has taken the<br />

rare step of starting a petition<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 />

PEGASUS POST<br />

Christmas is so much more<br />

than tinsel and trees<br />

There seems to be more and<br />

more to do at Christmas these<br />

days, from choosing between<br />

traditional or up-to-theminute<br />

decoration colour<br />

schemes through to worrying<br />

about having a ‘beach-ready<br />

body’ and buying presents,<br />

food and bubbles.<br />

With all the hype and pressure<br />

around the season, it’s easy<br />

to forget that Christmas is in<br />

fact a faith-based celebration<br />

of the birth of Jesus Christ<br />

and a time to come together<br />

Baptist<br />

Anglican<br />

in worship. Churches across<br />

the city are recognising<br />

Christmas and what it means<br />

for Christians in a number of<br />

ways, often with music at the<br />

centre.<br />

Most churches offer Carol<br />

Services encouraging us all<br />

to raise our voices in the<br />

seasonal songs we remember<br />

from our childhood, as well as<br />

concerts, talks and recitals.<br />

It is a time when churches<br />

and faith-based organisations<br />

remind us of how fortunate<br />

we are and that it is possible<br />

to give gifts of hope that will<br />

make a true difference at<br />

this time of year. Christmas<br />

is, after all, about giving nor<br />

receiving.<br />

So why not take a moment<br />

away wrapping the expensive<br />

electronics to reflect on the<br />

true meaning of the season<br />

and call into your nearest<br />

church – all are always<br />

welcome, regardless of their<br />

faith, and especially so at<br />

Christmas.<br />
