Call for urgent action
to repair rough roads
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
URGENT ACTION is being
called to address rough roads in
the eastern suburbs.
Coastal-Burwood Community
Board chairwoman Kim Money
said the community cannot
continue to wait on plans and
strategies to be implemented, the
roads need to be fixed now.
City council
staff is arranging
a seminar
in the new
year to review
road conditions
and to
Kim Money
look at pedestrian
crossings
on the east.
Each board member will
discuss what roads they believe
need to be prioritised for
resurfacing or upgrades in the
east.
“We really need to know where
things sit in the programme . . . it
is just too long. Things need to be
done,” Ms Money said.
In 2016, the city council budgeted
$680 million to fix roads in
the Burwood-Pegasus area over
10 years.
Its total budget for resurfacing
for the financial year of 2019-
2020 is $12.9 million.
Portions of roads planned to
be repaired next year include
Owles Tce, Avonside Drive and
Union St for the city council’s
Carriageway & Footpath Programme
2018-21.
A key area under scrutiny
is the roading between
Wainoni Rd/New Brighton Rd
roundabout and the Bower Ave/
New Brighton Rd intersection.
The board has asked city council
staff to investigate if it can be
put back to its original condition
post-earthquake.
“The road is a disgrace there,
there are holes everywhere . . . it
is a very bad stretch of road,” Ms
Money said.

OUR FEATURE on Hampshire St (pages 4,
5 and 6) brings back some memories.
I could tell you a few stories but in a
family newspaper like Pegasus Post, I
probably wouldn’t get away with it.
Needless to say, back in the day they
were great times in the east . . . probably still are, it’s just another
generation having them.
A lot of my mates were from Hampshire St and its surrounding
streets, and our social lives radiated through Aranui and across
the eastern suburbs – usually from Waimairi Beach to South
Brighton. Basically anywhere there was a good party.
All you had to do was cruise the streets and you’d find a party
happening somewhere. And they were pretty damn good. Unless
the Hampshires arrived . . .

Potential drainage trial concern
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
A POTENTIAL flood
prevention measure may
not be a silver bullet for
solving drainage issues at the
Southshore estuary.
THe city council will trial a
groyne in Sumner to prevent
problems there. If that works
it will then
be trialled in
Ebbtide St,
Southshore.
But doubt
has been
cast over
whether the
trial to place
David East
a temporary
groyne at
the drain in
Burgess St, Sumner, will work at
the estuary.
Coastal Ward city councillor
David East, said the Sumner
waves and the estuary at
Southshore are “totally different
conditions.”
“In the meantime, we have
just got to carry on with a bit
of experimentation with some
options and get the problem
sorted once and for all,” he said.
It comes after the Coastal-
Burwood Community Board
raised concern over inefficient
stormwater drains in Southshore
filling up when it rains heavily
and the water being unable to
flow out to the estuary.
Board deputy chairman Tim
Sintes said he also has doubts the
trial will work at Ebbtide St, but
leaving it as it is was “not an option.”
City council land drainage
manager Keith Davison said
while staff are looking at the
trial on Burgess St, there are no
firm plans at this stage.
THe temporary groyne would
aim to artificially lower sand
levels on one side which, if
placed next to an outlet, may
help clear it.
But a city council report said
there would need to be natural
tidal waves to move the sand
laterally.
It said while natural tidal
effects are expected at Sumner,
there is no certainty it will work
at drain outlets in the estuary
such as Ebbtide St.
THe board recently inquired
with city council staff about the
status of Ebbtide St drain after
concerns it was not working
properly when it rained.
Mr Davison said during a
heavy rain event when the tide is
UNCERTAINTY:
A potential
flood prevention
measure may

the Southshore
estuary.
high, the drain will be below
the tide level which means
it occasionally has to send a
temporary pump out.
He said when there is a
rainstorm the city council will
ensure the drain is clear of sand
and isn’t blocked.
“At this stage we will continue
this method and monitor the
effectiveness of it,” he said.
Placing a temporary groyne
at Ebbtide St will be dependent
on how successful the trial is
at Sumner and if the estuary
conditions are suitable, Mr
Davison said.

Hampshire St: Transformed into
Hampshire St in Aranui
has had a reputation
over the years as a
place you dare to tread.
But it is undergoing a
transformation. Julia
Evans reports
IN THE PAST it has been
labelled the most feared street in
the city.
Sirens, stabbings, sexual assaults,
fires, shootings, gangs,
murders, high unemployment
rates and low incomes have been
synonymous with Hampshire St
for the better part of its history.
A stark contrast to its namesake,
the area of Hampshire in
the United Kingdom, which has a
Christchurch city and Avon River
of its own.
Hampshire calls forth images
of a rolling English countryside
rather than the street police in
the 1990s would often refer to as
“The Reservation.”
Erina Staples has lived on and
around Hampshire St for 27 years
and said the area used to be
“really rough.”
She said there were fights often
between the Mongrel Mob and
Black Power gangs when the pub,
BANABA BANABA has lived
on Hampshire St for at least 20
years.
It could be 30.
“I’ve forgotten, I’ve had other
things on my mind.”
He’s spent the last eight years
in his modern brick unit after
moving from down the other
end of the street.
Mr Banaba had to move
after the February 22, 2011,
earthquake destroyed the
second storey of his home.
“You couldn’t use the
bathroom or go upstairs. I
like it here better anyway,” he
said.
“There aren’t as many people
doing wheelspins outside the
house here, its quieter.”
Originally from the Cook
Islands, Mr Banaba moved to
Auckland and lived in Porirua
with his brother.
He then moved down to
known as the Hampshire Hilton,

“It was terrible when the pub
was open . . . there were fights
outside and the kids would hang
outside and see it all,” she said.

lived on Hampshire St, but he wouldn’t live anywhere else.

“I like it here. At my old
place the backyard was too
big to mow on my own,” Mr
But the Mongrel Mob and Black
Power haven’t been the only gangs
to be prominent in the area.
In the 70s, there was the Flagon
Wagon gang, and later the fully
patched Hampshires. They tried
Banaba said.
Now he mows the front lawns
of most of his neighbours and
said the area has a strong sense
to rule the roost in the eastern
suburbs from their base in the
streets around Hampshire St.
But they weren’t always the
victor.
In the 1970s, surfers from the
of community.
“I like helping,” Mr Banaba
said.
He also liked playing darts
at the Eastern Eagles Rugby
League Club clubrooms.
“I stopped playing when I
reached the top. I said: ‘I’ve had
enough now’.”
Mr Banaba said Wainoni
Park was a great spot on
Hampshire St.
“When my grandkids
come over, I say go over to
the park and play. I can walk
over with them and watch,” he
said.
However, Mr Banaba said he
knew there were gangs in the
area, but they mostly kept to
themselves.
“Black Power and the
Mongrel Mob, they don’t cause
any problems,” he said.
“It’s not as bad as people
think. People tell me it’s bad
but it’s not.”

Fire rages, homes at risk
a real sense of community
“One of the young surfie guys
got beaten up by the Flagon
Wagon so we decided to go
around there. We rang the police
first and told them we were going
there to sort them out,” long-time
surfer Keiry Bennett recalled this
week.
The Flagon Wagon gang
members were swinging chains
as the surfies approached. A few
moments later it was all on.
“We grabbed their chains,
jumped up and down on the car
roofs . . . and when we were done
the police were waiting around
the corner to sort them out,” he
said.
“They didn’t beat up surfers
after that, that’s for sure.”
The Hampshires emerged
in the 1980s from the Flagon
Wagon, and then faded away.
They were a feared gang in the
east, who would turn up to halls
having 21sts and other parties
and cause and get involved in
carnage.
As the years rolled on the
Ruthless Boot Boys, an odd fit
in an ever-growing Maori and
Polynesian population in
Aranui, and the Mongrel Mob
and Black Power would take up
residence.
Hampshire St was given the

status as unofficial worst street
in the city – TV3’s Campbell Live
used the term when discussing
the merger of Aranui schools.
But the street’s notoriety went
to a national and international
level in September 2009 when the
bodies of Tisha Lowry, 28, and
Rebecca Chamberlain, 33, were
found under the floorboards of
one of the units on the corner of
Hampshire St and Wainoni Rd.
It became known as The House
of Horrors.
Mrs Chamberlain’s husband,
Jason Somerville, was jailed for
their murders. He had killed Ms
Lowry, who was his neighbour,
in September 2008.
A year later he killed his wife.
The House Of Horrors
would later be burnt down –
culprits still unknown. The
property was bought by the city
council and turned into a small
park Ripene Ma Reserve – White
Ribbon Reserve, which honours
those who lost their lives to
violence.
But for all of this Ms Staples
feels “pretty lucky” to live in
Hampshire St.
She has lived in the new state
house for the last two years, but
raised her children in various
spots along the street.
Her oldest is now 27,
her youngest daughter is a
16-year-old student at Haeata
Community Campus, her
mother lives just around the
corner.
DARK PAST: The House
of Horrors where it
was discovered Jason
Somerville had buried
the bodies of his wife
and neighbour in
2008 and 2009 was
destroyed by fire.
Ms Staples said a lot of that had
to do with the February 22, 2011,
earthquake, which provided an
opportunity for Hampshire St to
regenerate.
“There’s a lot of community
and it’s good having the police
around. They come in and say
hello, make sure all the kids and
teenagers respect them. You don’t
see that in every street.”
“I actually feel a lot safer here
than I would in town. Everyone’s
got your back here, everyone
makes sure you’re safe,” she said.

New library, park upgrade and leadership
Fire rages, homes at risk
WHILE HAMPSHIRE St has
had a chequered past – it’s
future is full of rejuvenation and
community spirit.
Recent years have seen the
opening of a new library, upgrades
at Wainoni Park and the
rise of Aranui Community Trust
Incorporated Society, which runs
the tool shed, a walking group,
community
lunches,
amongst a
range of other
services.
Rob
Davidson,
who is the
Rob Davidson
husband of
Mayor Lianne
Dalziel, has been chairman of
ACTIS for 18 years.
“I went to the recent Affirm
celebration and I sat there with
Sandy Kaa, our kaumatua and
looked around at all the positive
changes. I actually became quite
emotional,” he said.
“The people were just so engaged.”
Mr Davidson said the area had
managed to achieve so much in a
short period of time.
“There’s the new $6.5 million
community hall . . .the new
library and we’ve shifted the playground
from behind the shops,
there’s been community plantings
days, it’s really opened up now so
houses overlook it and it’s much
safer,” Mr Davidson said.
Hampshire St’s high deprivation
index and low income rates
meant ACTIS’s role in the community
was on-going.
“You have to continue your
support. You can’t go in and then
leave again . . . it’s the sort of
thing we’ve got to carry on.”
The community spirit would
see the area flourish in the future,
Mr Davidson said.
Murals have been painted on
the shop walls, courtesy of street
artists and students from Haeata
Community Campus
as part of an ongoing
campaign by the Aranui
neighbourhood policing
team to brighten up the
area.
Constable Jules
Atkinson said the
murals brought a
passion for art and the
community together.
“This project is about
uniting us all and engaging
with one another. We’ve found a
common interest and the locals

love it,” she said.
Te Kupenga o Aranui youth
worker and mentor Silivelio
Fasi, 28, painted
one of the murals and
was raised in the area.
“One of the key
changes is the park.
When I was younger
there was an old half
court and that was
about it, now there’s a
flash basketball court
and a path. It’s a lot
more vibrant,” he said.
Fasi said the look of the
area was changing, which was
helping outward perception.
“There’s always been gang activity
and things. But at the same
time there’s a lot of kids having
a lot of fun. Biking up and down
the street, going to the shops and
sitting outside having a pie.”
Fasi said when you go down
Hampshire St everyone says
hello, gives the nod of a head or
the friendly eyebrow raise.
“When I was young, people
thought A-town was scary.
But I strongly believe there are
downsides to any community.
There has just been a magnifying
glass over Aranui.”

Call for urgent repair
of rough roads
•From page 1
The budget is more than $1.1
million but a time line for when
the project would begin was not
available.
The state of Breezes Rd is also
planned to be discussed
at the meeting.
Pegasus Post reported
last month city councillor
Glenn Livingstone
has gone to the city
council asking to have
heavy vehicles rerouted
to Anzac Drive.
He also wanted a section
of road on Breezes
Rd between Wainoni Rd
and Pages Rd in front of Haeata
Community Campus to be
repaired.
Cr Livingstone said he is
really pleased there will be a
seminar on the issue.
As part of the seminar, the
board will also look at pedestrian
crossings.
Cr Livingstone said he was
contacted by an elderly woman
living adjacent Pages
Rd wanting a crossing
installed from
Marlow Rd to Pages
Rd.
He said it has since
prompted the board
to look at where pedestrian
crossings are
needed on the Pages
Rd corridor.
Tim Baker
Community board
member Tim Baker said prioritising
what roads need to be
fixed is not going to be an easy
task, as there are “hundreds”
that need fixing at this stage.

A NEW Brighton dairy owner
robbed at gunpoint in February
“feels sorry” for the two men in
jail for the crime.
Beachcomber Dairy owner
Zeny Cargill and her elderly
mother were robbed by the men
who took more than $2000 in
cigarettes and cash.
“You do feel sorry for them
in some way . . . sometimes I
don’t know who is to blame. The
parents or maybe the bringing
up,” said Ms Cargill.
She said every person has a
“sad story.”
Tanui Smith, 23, was sentenced
last week to three years and one
month in prison for pointing
a pistol at Ms Cargill and her
mother.
Jayden Peta Brown, 24, was
jailed for four years and one
month for the robbery and the
earlier robbery of a liquor shop
in St Albans. He was also driving
with excess breath-alcohol and
while his licence was suspended.
He has been disqualified from
driving for six months.
Ms Cargill said Brown had not
learned his lesson as it was his
second robbery.
She described working at the
dairy as “living on the edge” but
said it was part of the job.
Having worked at the
Beachcomber Dairy for about 30
years, Ms Cargill said she had
lost count of how many times she
had been robbed.
“I don’t even think about it
really. I try to forget it,” she said.

SOUTH BRIGHTON’S Harry
Roberts and Waimairi’s Rachael
Cleeve were among 20 top
volunteer surf lifesavers to attend
the National Lifeguard School.
They received an advanced lifeguard
award at the school in New
Plymouth, which was run by Surf
Life Saving New Zealand.
Based at the Fitzroy Surf Life
Saving Club, the three-day school
takes top volunteer surf lifeguards
and teaches them advanced skills
including rock rescues, helicopter
operations, advanced first-aid and
rigorous fitness challenges.
All participants take the
specialised skills back to their
beaches, where they will ultimately
help save lives and help
keep beach-goers safe during the
holiday season.
Hamish Clayton from Waihi
Beach took home the highlyvalued
top candidate award.

national education manager
Belinda Slement said the
lifeguards showed exceptional
leadership, teamwork and
decision-making skills.
HOOCH FONOTIA was
18-years-old when he walked
through the doors of the
Canterbury Freezing Works in
Belfast for the first time.
His reason for taking the job
was simple, he needed one.
Mr Fonotia, who lives in
Aranui, had no idea that this
decision would lead to some of
the best memories and strongest
friendships he would ever have.
After 45 years service at the
age of 64, he was forced to call
it quits when the plant closed
down, causing about 250 staff
members to lose their jobs.
Mr Fonotia said his time at the
plant had played a huge part in
shaping who he is today.
“The job always meant more to
me than money – I made a hell
of a lot of friends.”
Mr Fonotia and other former
freezing works employees
reunited to mark the 10th
anniversary of its closure on
November 17.
Mr Fonotia organised the
event in which about 200 former
staff members met at The Bower
hotel to exchange stories about
their time at the freezing works
and reconnect with old friends.
Said Mr Fonotia: “It was a
really good feeling to see all
sorts of people, as many had
gone their separate ways and
not seen each other since the
closure.”
Guests celebrated with a slice
of cake and speeches from Mr
Fonotia and New Zealand Meat
Workers Union Canterbury
branch secretary Bill Watt.
Mr Watt said Mr Fonotia was
the main reason the get-together
had happened. “A lot of credit
has to go to Hooch. It was a
really good function.”
Mr Watt said Mr Fonotia’s
efforts to make the reunion
happen were even more special
given the event could have been
“the last hurrah” for some of the

Sustainability key
to organic farming
There’s something for
everyone in the realm of
organic farming but as far
as Bill Martin is concerned,
it’s all about sustainability.
The Training College
Manager at Lincoln
University’s Biological
Husbandry Unit Organics
Trust (BHU) is happy to see
a surge in enthusiasm for
organic food production
as younger generations
become more aware of
environmental concerns.
He says the growing
popularity of organic
production in recent years
means that graduates are
now taking what they have
learned into a broader
range of sectors.
“It’s not just about
growing, wholesaling
and retailing food anymore. They’re
going into schools and teaching primary
and secondary schoolers about the
importance of sustainable farming and
gardening and really starting to embed the
philosophy into the education system.”
As far as conventional agricultural
practices are concerned, he says farmers
should be encouraged to optimise their
production, rather than maximise it at the
expense of the environment.
“We need to change our agricultural
paradigm and re-evaluate our priorities.”
Mr Martin says those interested in a
career in organics should enrol in the
one-year Diploma in Agri-Food Production
course, which is open to students either
with or without university entrance.
Introduced last year, it includes Tikanga
and Mahinga Kai components and can
lead to employment in organic primary
production or other sectors related
to organics, especially education and
hospitality.
“The course offers a good grounding
in the principles of organic agriculture,
teaching the philosophies and histories
of organics and providing practical
knowledge of how they are applied,” Mr
Martin says.
Apply now for the Diploma in Organic
Agri-Food Production and begin studying
in February 2019.
Grow a career
in organics
Lincoln University’s Diploma in Organic Agri-Food Production will prepare
you for work in the organic sector or your own garden or smallholdings. It’s
a full-time, one-year programme that covers the theory and practice behind
contemporary organic agri-food production.
Join us in February to find out what growing organically on an agricultural
scale really means.

Pressure on to
save city’s water
THE CITY council is
taking a myth-busting
approach to remind
residents about the need to
save water this summer.
It has put out a series
of fact-based articles
via its website and
Facebook page in an
effort to correct common
misunderstandings about
water use in Christchurch.
Water supply
programme manager
Helen Beaumont says it’s
important people get the
facts so they understand
the importance of saving
water this summer.
“We’ve had a lot people
effectively calling us out
for asking them to save
water when water bottling
plants are taking it out of
the ground every day. But
there are two problems
with that. Firstly, the city
council doesn’t decide
who can or can’t take
groundwater, Environment
Canterbury does, while
taking environmental
factors into account. And
secondly, the water taken
by water bottling plants
doesn’t actually affect our
public water supply –
they’re separate issues.”
Ms Beaumont says
another common
misunderstanding is
around the need to
conserve water this
summer.
“It’s not that we’re
running out of water.
The problem is we
need to take some
water wells out of service
so we can upgrade them
and stop chlorinating as
fast as possible. If we keep
using too much water, we
have to use more wells to
cope, and then we can’t
work on them. It’s really
that simple,” she says.
A wet start to summer in
Christchurch has seen the
city council’s
online water
dial spend a
number of
consecutive
days in the
“green zone”,
which is where
the city council
wants to see it
stay as the city
moves into the
warmest part of the year.
Ms Beaumont says
the rain means people
generally don’t feel the
need to turn on their
garden sprinklers or
irrigators, which are

the biggest household
water users.
“Running a garden
sprinkler or irrigator for
an hour can use up to 1500
litres – or 150 buckets –
of water. That’s a huge
amount when you consider
we’re targeting an average
daily use of 212 litres
per person this summer.
We’re asking people to use
hand-held hoses to water
– during early morning or
late evening – because you
can direct exactly where
the water goes and avoid
wasting it.”
•More water saving tips
are available on the city
council’s website at ccc.

ADVENTURE: Marian College students spent the day learning about nature
and the history of the uninhabited Quail Island. The year 9 students spent the
day walking, swimming, having a picnic and taking part in games. The school’s
head of social services Anna Perry said the students enjoyed the day and it was
perfect weather time outdoors.

Encouraging ExcEllEncE in our community
-
From the Senior
Leadership team
Meri Kirihimete, Maligayang Pasko, Merry christmas and a happy
New Year.
as 2018 winds down, it is a great time to reflect on all our
successes throughout the year, as well as looking forward to the
new year ahead. We are extremely proud of our students and our
staff, and all the wonderful opportunities Mairehau high School
continues to offer our community.
Who are we?
We are a true community school with a long history of serving
christchurch’s North east, proud of our diversity and our close
connections with contributing schools. We have caring and
supportive staff who treat each student as an individual. our
students tell us they value the guidance and support they receive
from staff at Mairehau high School. We offer a wide range of
academic and vocational pathways from school with strong links
to ara and university of canterbury.
What do we value?
• Challenge (always challenge yourself to be the best)
• Achievement (achievement looks differently to different
people. We value achievement in all its many shapes and sizes)
• Responsibility (for yourself, for others and for the environment)
• Empathy (understand the needs of others)
What are our points of difference?
• Small class sizes
• Traditional classrooms and workshop spaces
• A small school with a family atmosphere
• Provision for supported learning in a centre that is
well-designed to suit individuals.

families value our traditional classroom environments. They also
support our commitment to allowing students and staff every opportunity to engage in
innovative and collaborative teaching and learning opportunities.
To our Year 13 Leavers...
congratulations on all your success this year. it has been a privilege to share your learning
journey with you over the last five years. it was wonderful to see so many students and
parents at the final leavers’ Dinner recently. We look forward to hearing about your future
successes and adventures! as part of the Mairehau whānau it will always be a pleasure to
reconnect with you. You are welcome here any time.
To those students and families who are yet to enrol with us please take the time to visit us,
to read about us and to talk to us - we welcome your interest in our school. our staff and
students are always happy to show you around and answer any questions you have about
Mairehau high School.
Finally, we wish you a safe, happy and peaceful summer break and look forward to meeting
up again in the new year.
A message from Kane...
Kia ora, my name is Kane. i came from rawhiti Primary School and now i’m a Year 9 student at
Mairehau high School.
When i first came to Mairehau, i was nervous like most people are when they first go to high
school.
But when i came to Mairehau all this changed. everyone is so kind and everyone accepts you
for who are you. Even if you do hit problems, the teachers here are amazing. They listen and
come up with solutions for your problem.
I’ve had a lot of fun talking to different people and making new friends. The
thing i like here is that even the older kids are kind. i always thought the big
kids were intimidating but really they look after us and help us when we
need it. They are senior role models and help us with a lot of activities.
anyway, what i’m trying to say is that at Mairehau we are like a family; we
stick together like glue, we care about everybody and no one is left out.

as a small school, Mairehau high School is pleased to be able to
offer a range of different learning opportunities, including a very
strong Gifted and Talented (GaTE) programme, to support our
students.
An important part of our junior GaTE programme is students
volunteering to complete a project. Through consultation with
staff and the wider community, students choose their focus.
Topics can be either academic or non-academic and may
include hobbies, sports, theatre, community service, culture, and
entrepreneurship. There may be ties to their family background,
personal experiences or global issues.
A group of Year 10 GaTE girls displaying a strong interest in
the Visual arts decided they would like to do a mural for a
community group. After consultation with Te Puna Oraka
Barnados early learning centre in Mairehau, the girls decided
to create a mural for their premises. Te Puna Oraka were able to
share information about the history of the area which helped the girls with their design process.
We presented the mural to Te Puna Oraka at a community morning tea event on the 11th of
December at their premises.
Gifted and Talented Teacher-in-Charge Angela Marshall says, “We are so lucky to have such a
wonderful group of young people wanting to give back to their community. They enjoy being
creative and working in small groups, knowing we are there to support them every step of the
way. i am very proud of what they have achieved.”

Her services were recognised
when she was presented with a

which runs along Oxford Tce.
All of the proceeds from
her baking have gone towards
buying pamper packs full of
toiletries to donate to the City

Maiyah’s mission is
documented on her Facebook

smart.
The awards attracted nearly
500 entries from primary and
intermediate schools across the
country.
The two digital videos designed
by the year 7 and 8 pupils
were The Pass-Bot (passwords
are like underpants) and Digital
Footprints.
The Pass-Bot aimed to teach
children about making “strong”
passwords.
It used the analogy passwords
are like underpants – with the
message not share them with
friends or strangers and change
them regularly.
The video came first in the

FOCUS ON HEALTH
Dilo Oil – The Remarkable
Skin Rejuvenator
Until Rachel
Hunter’s popular
TV series “TOUR OF
BEAUTY” Dilo Oil was
relatively unknown being
one of the best-kept secrets of
the Pacific Islands. It may however
be the number one natural beauty oil
available as it possesses powerful natural
skin regeneration, anti-aging and healing
properties.
According to ethnobotanist Chris
Kilham, Dilo (pronounced dee-low)
Oil is a powerful skin regenerator as
it is one of the most effective agents
in promoting the regeneration and
formation of new tissue, thereby
accelerating wound healing and the
growth of healthy skin. Dilo Oil is
super-absorbing and nourishing
and can penetrate all three layers
of the skin, offering exceptional
cell hydration and regeneration.
As well as this, Dilo Oil has potent
anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial,
antifungal and antioxidant properties.
Traditionally, Dilo Oil is used to keep the
skin young and youthful and for just about
any skin complaint. Some of the conditions
for which it is considered helpful include
abrasions, cuts and cracks, acne and acne
scars, pimples, blemishes, stretch marks,
wrinkles, blisters, burns (including chemical
and radiation), diabetic sores, rashes, shaving
irritation, dry or scaly skin, eczema, psoriasis,
dermatitis, herpes
sores (cold-sores),
insect bites and stings,
rheumatism, pain, sciatica,
shingles, sunburn, rosacea,
athlete’s foot, skin eruptions,
warts, skin ulcers and sores, nappy
rash and almost any other skin ailment
and often with incredible results.
Many beauty and skincare products
on the market today contain unnatural
ingredients that can be toxic and may
even contribute to disease. Generally
the benefits are exaggerated and often
only temporary or camouflage.
Marshall’s Dilo Oil is 100% pure
and certified organic. It has been
cold-pressed from the Dilo nut and
contains absolutely no additives.
Polynesians and Southeast Asians
have revered Dilo Oil for centuries
believing it to be a sacred gift of
nature and the Gods. Dilo Oil
contains a unique blend of fatty
acids that stimulate and supports
the skins natural healing process through
the growth of new healthy skin tissue. It is a
remarkable product we highly recommend to
everyone. A 50ml bottle is $19.90 and 100ml
only $29.90.
Further information is available from
the Natural Health Advisers at Marshall’s
Health & Natural Therapy, 101 Seaview
Road, New Brighton, Phone: 388-5757. We
are always happy to help!
NATURAL HEALING & BEAUTY OIL
As seen on Rachel Hunter’s Tour of Beauty
Revered for centuries by Polynesians & Southeast Asians for its remarkable skin
anti-aging & healing properties, Dilo oil comes from the nut of the sacred Dilo
tree, “the tree of a thousand virtues”. Dilo oil is often called the beauty oil as it
can penetrate all three layers of the skin offering exceptional cell hydration &
regeneration. It has a unique ability to stimulate the growth of healthy skin cells
& this gives it powerful anti-aging & healing properties that can help reduce
lines, blemishes, scars & damage to the skin. It also possesses
anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antifungal & antioxidant properties.
Dilo Oil Supports

Collagen
The Body’s Youth Protein
Collagen is the primary
protein in the body. It is a
major component of skin,
hair, nails, muscles, tendons,
ligaments, joint cartilage,
bones, gums, teeth, eyes, and
blood vessels.
In fact collagen is
the primary structural
component for all tissue in the
body, providing the strength
and resilience associated with
youth, beauty and wellness.
The body’s natural collagen
production decreases with age resulting in
many signs of aging, such as flaccid skin,
wrinkles, ligament and tendon injuries and
aching joints. Collagen supplementation
is one of the most fundamental things a
person can do to prevent premature aging
and promote youthful vitality.
NEOCELL are the industry leaders in
research on collagen supplementation.
Through advanced research they have
perfected a way to hydrolyse collagen and
effectively reduce its molecular weight this
improving the absorption of collagen into
the blood stream by over 90%.
A clinical study on NEOCELL
COLLAGEN has shown skin hydration to
increase an average of 21% and up to 50%,
with 92% of test subjects experiencing
firmer, softer skin. Most people taking

Christmas is so much more
than tinsel and trees
There seems to be more and
more to do at Christmas these
days, from choosing between
traditional or up-to-theminute
decoration colour
schemes through to worrying
about having a ‘beach-ready
body’ and buying presents,
food and bubbles.
With all the hype and pressure
around the season, it’s easy
to forget that Christmas is in
fact a faith-based celebration
of the birth of Jesus Christ
and a time to come together
Baptist
Anglican
in worship. Churches across
the city are recognising
Christmas and what it means
for Christians in a number of
ways, often with music at the
centre.
Most churches offer Carol
Services encouraging us all
to raise our voices in the
seasonal songs we remember
from our childhood, as well as
concerts, talks and recitals.
It is a time when churches
and faith-based organisations
remind us of how fortunate
we are and that it is possible
to give gifts of hope that will
make a true difference at
this time of year. Christmas
is, after all, about giving nor
receiving.
So why not take a moment
away wrapping the expensive
electronics to reflect on the
true meaning of the season
and call into your nearest
church – all are always
welcome, regardless of their
faith, and especially so at
Christmas.
