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 />
council staff<br />
to investigate<br />
fixing a rough<br />
section<br />
of road<br />
between<br />
the New<br />
Brighton and<br />
Wainoni Rds<br />
roundabout<br />
and the<br />
Bower<br />
Ave/New<br />
Brighton Rd<br />
intersection.<br />
City council planning and<br />
delivery transport manager<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 />
Hampshire St after one of their<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 />
DARK PAST: The House<br />
of Horrors where it<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 />

Te Kupenga o Aranui youth<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 />

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 />

installed from<br />
Marlow Rd to Pages<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 />

top candidate award.<br />

Belinda Slement said the<br />
lifeguards showed exceptional<br />
leadership, teamwork and<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.

From the Senior<br />
Leadership team<br />
Meri Kirihimete, Maligayang Pasko, Merry christmas and a happy<br />
New Year.<br />
as 20<strong>18</strong> winds down, it is a great time to reflect on all our<br />
successes throughout the year, as well as looking forward to the<br />
new year ahead. We are extremely proud of our students and our<br />
staff, and all the wonderful opportunities Mairehau high School<br />
continues to offer our community.<br />
Who are we?<br />
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 />
Harry romana,<br />

Messages of support from our current students and families tell<br />
us that our small class sizes are appreciated and they tell us they<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 />

Donna and younger brother<br />
M.J, Maiyah, 8, has been doing<br />
her bit to fundraise for the City<br />
Mission by selling baking at<br />
food markets.<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 />
toiletries to donate to the City<br />
Mission.<br />
Maiyah’s mission is<br />
documented on her Facebook<br />
page, Girl With Cake Projects,<br />
which has more than 300<br />
Facebook likes.<br />
The pathway displays the<br />

Videos successful for pupils<br />
CREATIVE DIGITAL videos by<br />
Rawhiti School pupils to promote<br />
cyber awareness have been<br />
recognised with top awards in a<br />
national digital competition.<br />
The schools’ year 7 and 8 digi<br />
group won awards at the movies<br />

for two adverts they designed to<br />
advocate for children being cyber<br />
smart.<br />
The awards attracted nearly<br />
500 entries from primary and<br />
intermediate schools across the<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 />

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 />

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 />
hair, nails, muscles, tendons,<br />
ligaments, joint cartilage,<br />

body, providing the strength<br />
and resilience associated with<br />
youth, beauty and wellness.<br />
The body’s natural collagen<br />
production decreases with age resulting in<br />
many signs of aging, such as flaccid skin,<br />
wrinkles, ligament and tendon injuries and<br />
aching joints. Collagen supplementation<br />

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 />
to figh the city council over<br />
funding.<br />
It comes after the city council<br />
removed funding for the centre<br />
planned 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 />
residents, it was fulfi ling that<br />
role.<br />
community and this is what we<br />
are doing. The LTP and annual<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 />
