Police warn speeding drivers
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
DRIVERS CAUGHT speeding
in the east are, on average,
travelling 15-20km/h over the
speed limit – and police say it has
to stop.
Police issued 12 speeding
tickets during four checkpoint
operations it carried out leading
up to Christmas.
They will be continuing to run
checkpoints in the eastern suburbs
to crack down on the “fatal
five” driving offences, which are
using a mobile phone while driving,
dangerous manoeuvres, not
wearing a seat belt, drink
driving and speeding.
Sergeant Jim Currie said
police want to continue reinforcing
the message that these offences
cause a lot of crashes and
damage.
“We want to reduce that and
make people safer on the roads,”
he said.
During the roading
initiative launched during the
Christmas season, police carried
out checkpoints on Cuthberts
Rd, Rothesay Rd near Burwood
Hospital, Mairehau Rd and
Avondale Rd.
Seven speeding tickets were
issued on Cuthberts Rd, three
on Rothesay Rd and two on
Avondale Rd.

Petition launched to save bank

In Brief
Fire rages, homes at risk
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
A PETITION has been launched
in a bid to stop Kiwibank closing
its branch at Eastgate Shopping
Centre.
More than 1300 people have
signed the petition, which will be
put to Kiwibank chief executive
Steve Jurkovich
and chairwoman
of the
board Susan
Macken before
the closure on
January 30.
It was
Jackie Simons
launched by
Port Hills MP
Ruth Dyson, city councillor Yani
Johanson and Woolston Community
Association chairwoman
Jackie Simons.
New Zealand Post, which is a
joint operation with Kiwibank,
will also close on January 30.
But NZ Post is still planning to
provide postal and bill payment
services in Eastgate through an
agency.
Head of retail Mark Yagmich
said it is working on shifting
postal services to another local
business and hopes to be able to
announce who the operator will
be later this month.
The Kiwibank closure comes
three months after Environment
CHANGE: Eastgate Shopping Centre’s Kiwibank and New
Zealand Post branch will close at the end of the month, but
postal services are planned for another agency.
Canterbury reduced its bus services
in Linwood. Environment
Canterbury replaced the 535 bus
route with a shopper service.
The 155 service runs three
times a day, Monday to Friday,
and is on trial for 12 months.
The closure of Kiwibank has
been described as “one more
frustrating thing” for residents
living in the area.
Ms Simons said the closure of
Kiwibank is “just ridiculous” as
it is the third branch in the area
to close.
Kiwibank has previously
closed its branches on Stanmore
Rd and in Woolston.
Said Ms Simons: “We have
just had a load of bus cuts in the
Linwood-Bromley area . . . it is
just one more frustrating thing
for people who don’t have the
same necessary advantages other
people do,” she said.
City councillor Yani Johanson
said the closure was “death by
a thousand cuts” and a petition
was one way of expressing community
concern.
“It is absolutely heartbreaking
to see the corporate approach
they are taking at the expense of
the community,” he said.
Kiwibank announced in November
it would open a standalone
branch in Papanui on February
1 and withdraw services
from Eastgate and Merivale.
A Kiwibank spokeswoman
said the way its customers access
banking services has changed
dramatically over the past 17
years. Less than 10 per cent
of Kiwibank’s service transactions
now occurs in its physical
network.
The nearest banking service is
at The Palms Kiwibank, which is
5km away.
Ms Dyson said it was a terrible
time of the year to be launching
the petition, but it was “fantastic”
to have got more than 1300
signatures.
Westpac provides the other
banking service at Eastgate.

KITCHEN FIRES
Cooking left unattended has
been the cause of several fires
in the New Brighton area.
The Anzac Fire Station was
called to extinguish a kitchen
fire on Keyes Rd and Bridge
St last week. Senior station
officer Shane O’Brien said it is
reminding people not to leave
their cooking unattended and
to always have working smoke
alarms. He said the Keyes Rd
property sustained damage to
the walls and smoke damage
to the house while the Bridge
St property had light smoke
damage.
BROAD PARK FLYING FOX
The slide at Broad Park in
Waimairi Beach will be replaced
next month. The slide was
removed in October by the
city council after it had begun
to rust. The park’s flying fox
platform was also removed
after it had deteriorated beyond
repair. City council head of
parks Andrew Rutledge said
a date for the reinstallment of
the flying fox cannot be set as
the design and orientation of
it is yet to be confirmed. It is
anticipated the replacement will
cost $30,000 and $12,000 for the
new slide.

Founder of Eldernet recognised
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
TWENTY-TWO years ago
Eleanor Bodger established
Eldernet to help people reaching
their twilight years make some
of the biggest decisions in their
life.
Now the 66-year-old New
Brighton woman has been recognised
with a Companion of
the New Zealand Order of Merit
Award for services to seniors in
the New Year Honours List.
“One of the things that people
commonly think about ageing
is by the time you get older you
have made the biggest decisions
in your life. But an actual fact
that is not true,” she said.
In the 90s, information to help
older people and their families
make informed decisions during
some of the most crucial moments
in their life was hard to
come by, Ms Bodger said.
In 1997, when the internet was
just beginning to take off, she
took an opportunity to create
the online comprehensive information
service Eldernet.
Each month the online database
has millions of hits.
It provides directories of rest
home and retirement villages,
home help services, and lifestyle
information broadly covering
travel, technology, and financial
assistance.
Ms Bodger said she was “absolutely
flabbergasted” to receive
the award.
“Once I got over being
flabbergasted I was so thrilled
and honoured that the work
we have been doing for a long
time I guess has been found to
be useful to people,” Ms Bodger
said.
It was during the February
CARING:
Founder of online
comprehensive
information
service Eldernet
Eleanor Bodger
has been
recognised in
the New Year
Honours List.
22, 2011, earthquake Eldernet
commissioned a report into the
aged-care sector response to the
emergency.
“In terms of that broader
stuff, of course, older people
were significantly affected and
many died before they saw their
issues addressed with their own
home,” Ms Bodger said.
But she said many older
people living in rest homes were
more concerned about what
was happening with staff, their
families and children.
“I think that was maybe part
of the ageing process of having
that really generalist and much
more universal view of life.”
Ms Bodger’s first introduction
to the aged care sector was when
she started working as a nurse at
Nurse Maude in the late 1970s.
From there, she delved into
social and community work and
has since had many highlights
in her career.
She helped establish the
Linwood Community Resource
Centre and co-created the
annual LYFE (Linwood Youth
Festival Experience).
LYFE is a not-for-profit event
celebrating youth diversity and
achievement in the Linwood
community.
“I love meeting people and
I guess the highlight for me
is with the elder network we
can be on the road up to three
months of the year going
around the country,” she said.

Musician, historian and
author receives honour
WOOLSTON resident Edward
Bohan has also been recognised
in the New Year Honours list.
He was made a Member of the
New Zealand Order of Merit
for services to music, historical
research and literature.
Mr Bohan has made
significant contributions as a
singer since the 1960s and as a
historian and author from the
1970s.
He established his career as a
singer in the United Kingdom
between 1964 and 1987
and developed an extensive
repertoire of more than 170
choral, orchestral, and operatic
works before returning to New
Zealand.
Mr Bohan has since
performed with the Canterbury
Opera, Wellington City Opera
and the State Opera of South
Australia.
He has sung regularly with
the New Zealand Symphony
Orchestra and Concert FM for
Radio New Zealand and has
performed without charge at
various community and charity
events.
Mr Bohan was a member of
the artistic panel of Canterbury
Opera and has been influential
in the career development of
other high profile New Zealand
opera singers.
He has authored biographies,
histories and historical fiction
and has published 18 books,
including the biographies
Edward Stafford, New Zealand’s
First Statesman (1994) and To Be
a Hero: A biography of Sir George
Grey (1998), which were both
finalists in the Montana Book
Awards.
Mr Bohan’s other works
include a series of historical
detective novels featuring
Inspector Patrick O’Rorke,
the most recent of which was
published in 2017.
Praise for Pukeko Centre
VOLUNTEERS AT Pukeko
Centre will know on Sunday
if they have been named the
finalists in the Mitre 10 New
Zealand Community of the Year
Award.
The community-led development
has been named as a semifinalist
in the national award
recognising people who use their
passion to make the country a
better place.
The Pukeko Centre is a multiuse
sports and recreation facility
formed from a joint venture
between the Parklands Bowling
Club and the Parklands Junior
Rugby Club.
The clubs joined forces to build
the facility after being badly affected
by the February 22, 2011,
earthquake.
For five years the project has
been driven by a small, committed
team of volunteers from the
Parklands community led by
Pukeko Centre chairman Maurice
Lawlor.
He said he could not begin to
calculate the number of volunteer
hours that have gone into
making this vision a reality.
“To make it into the top 10
out of 231 nominations for this
prestigious award is a real pat on
the back for all involved.”
The award is part of the New
Zealander of the Year Awards
EXCITING DEVELOPMENT: The opening of stage one of the
Pukeko Centre in February last year. (From left) – Parklands

which recognises people across
the country for their hard work.
The first stage of the centre
opened last year and consists of
a clubroom and pavilion, which
is located on the grounds of the
Parklands Bowling Club.
For five years the project has
been driven by a small, committed
team of volunteers from the
Parklands community led by Mr
Lawlor.
The building utilises the buildings
from the former Freeville
School.
The Pūkeko Centre not only
serves as a home base for the
founding clubs but will provide
much-needed sports and recreation
facilities for other clubs and
organisations.
Fundraising efforts are now
under way for the 1.2 million
required to progress stage 2 – a
full-sized hall for indoor sports,
performances and events.

LOWER SPEED limits could be
on the horizon to make way for the
new Shirley Boys’ and Avonside
Girls’ High School.
The city council has opened for
submissions on a proposal that
would see a 40km/h school speed
zone on Travis Rd and Bower Ave.
It is also open for public
feedback on reducing the
permanent speed limit on
Frosts Rd from 70km/h to
50km/h.
The changes are in preparation
for the increased
volume of all road users in
the QE II Park area when
the school opens on April
29.
Sergeant Jim Currie said he
recommended lowering the speed
limit on Frosts Rd during a recent
meeting with the city council and
schools.
“Police are very supportive of
reducing the speed limit to make
it safer . . . especially with a lot
of kids using the cycleway along
Travis Rd,” he said.
The school speed zones would
operate Monday-Friday for no
more than 35min in the morning
and 20min in the afternoon.
The times would be aligned to
the school’s start and finish times,
once these are confirmed.

City councillor David East said
while he was comfortable with a
40km/h speed limit zone around
the school, he was “a bit ambivalent”
about the proposed speed
limit change to Frosts Rd.
“I would prefer to see
some conformity of

Grant brings sports hub one step closer
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
THE PLAN to turn Rawhiti
Domain into a sports hub has
taken another step forward as
progress is made on funding
to upgrade the New Brighton
Rugby Football Club.
The Rata Foundation has
granted $200,000 towards the
reconfiguration of the rugby
clubrooms, originally built in
1951.
The project coincides
with the Eastern Community
Sports and Recreation’s 10-year
plan to open an all-weather $2.2
million sports facility at the
domain.
The trust was established in
2008 to bring New Brighton
sports clubs together and is
driving the upgrade of the rugby
clubrooms.
But Eastern Community
Sports and Recreation Inc board
member Wayne Turner said the
grant is subject to securing the
rest of the funding to allow the
work to go ahead.
The upgrade of the clubrooms
will cost $350,000 – leaving the
club with an additional $150,000
to find.
Mr Turner said it is currently
seeking funding from other
trusts, and it is hopeful it will
have it secured by the end of
February.
Latest Christchurch news at www.star.kiwi
It is also in discussion with the
city council over the building
consent process.
But Mr Turner said he was
uncertain how long that process
would take.
The upgrade will include
replacing the roof, relocating
the kitchen upstairs, refitting
the downstairs lounge, and
adding two new changing
rooms.
The club will also be
rebranded to Eastern
Community Sports and
Recreation.
In August, a city council
hearings panel decided to lease
3881 sq m of land of the domain
to allow the trust to upgrade
four tennis courts, and build a
canopy with lighting over three
of the courts.
Trust chairman Peter Burley
said it able is to move forward
with the plans after securing
funding from the Lottery Grants
Board, Rata Foundation and
the New Zealand Community
Trust.
“That gives us enough to
start the project and fully
purchase the canopy and start
finalising the geotech and other
components,” he said.
The canopy is set to cost $1.2
million and the trust currently
has $1.05 million.

Mr Burley said while it was

He said the trust has a small

Well-known Avon Rowing
Club member will be missed
• Matt Slaughter
THE AVON Rowing Club
community is mourning
the death of one of its
longest-serving members.
Ray Flanagan, who was
known as Charlie, died
unexpectedly at home aged
72.
Mr Flanagan had been a
member of the club since
1967 and was successful on
the water as a competitor
and off it as a coach.
He went through the
grades and was a member
of the club’s winning junior
eight in 1971.
Mr Flanagan then went
on to win the champion
eight competition at
Karapiro in 1976.
He rowed competitively
until 1991 before turning
his attention to coaching.
Close friend and fellow
club member, Warren
Blazey, said Mr Flanagan
helped to make Avon a
great rowing club on and
off the water.
“He’s been a tireless
worker and a life member.”
Mr Blazey said Mr
Flanagan was “cheerful and
charming” and “always had
a good laugh.”
His life was celebrated
at a service at St Mary’s
Cathedral on Friday.
A post on the Canterbury
Rowing Association’s
Facebook page said Mr
CHAMPION:
Ray Flanagan
(left), Warren
Blazey
and Dave
Husband
at the Avon
Rowing Club.
Flanagan led a number
of rowing teams to great
results.
“He produced many
championship results in all
classes of boats. A record
any coach would be proud
of.”
His coaching success at
club level led to further
success on the international
stage.
He coached the New
Zealand university eight
in 1997 and 1998. Then in
1999, he coached the New
Zealand junior eight in
Bulgaria.
The team recorded
the fastest time ever by
a New Zealand junior
crew.

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.

Stalling claim denied by ECan
Pensioners
still fighting
for bus stop
• Matt Slaughter
RESIDENTS AT the Diana Isaac
Retirement Village in Mairehau
say Environment Canterbury is
putting off their next meeting to
discuss new bus route options.
Rest home resident Graham
Tate said he believes ECan has
been stalling and past meetings
had not produced a solution.
“They made
a promise that
they would give
us an accessible
bus and they
haven’t kept that
promise.”
An
Graham Tate
Environment
Canterbury
spokesperson
said this was not the case.
“We are not stalling on any
decision, it will take time to work
through the process and we are
still in the stage of working with
(city council), Ryman Healthcare
and Diana Isaac residents to
explore suitable and sustainable
solutions.”
As of the last week, the Orbiter
bus service no longer goes along
Philpotts Rd, leaving residents
with very few nearby public
transport options.
Residents have been fighting
since March to have the No 44
bus route adjusted so it would
stop at the village.
Mr Tate said he had
emailed ECan after the last
meeting in December to inquire
about the next meeting date, but
nothing had been confirmed yet.
He said one of his main
concerns with the delay was
some residents had reached
an age where driving was
difficult.
In spite of this, Mr Tate said
even some of the village’s most
elderly residents now felt their
only option was to get behind the
wheel.
“People are independent, even
though they’re old, but there’s a
number of 90-year-olds driving
and perhaps it would be better

for them and the public if they
weren’t.”
The ECan spokesperson said
they did not know how long it
would be until a decision on a
new route would be made.
“At this stage, there is not
a set timeframe, as it will be
dependent on what any potential
solution looks like.” ECan
would not comment on the
inconveniences and risks facing
rest home residents now that
their bus service was gone.

QE II tops
‘code
brown’ list
• By Sophie Cornish
EVEN THOUGH it has only been
open for about six months, Taiora:
QE II Recreation and Sport
Centre took out the ‘most poops’
title with 71 code browns last year.
However, in defence of the new
facility, it has seven pools.
Due to its popularity, QE II
implemented a one-in, one-out
policy on 30 occasions last year
when it reached maximum
capacity.
City council head of recreation
sports and events Nigel Cox said
QE II had the most closures due
to the significant number of
young swimmers who use the
facility. It also experienced about
33 vomiting incidents.
The city council provides tips
on its website on how to ensure its
pools stay open, offering pointers
for parents and caregivers who
should take extra care when
accompanying a child to the pool.
City council staff were kept busy
last year with 167 ‘code browns’
closing pools across the city.

about how
Regenerate
Christchurch’s plan may
impact the area and how
residents were unaware of
the red zone music event
recently
I FEEL A SUBTLE shift
happening in my community.
Dallington was hard hit by the
earthquakes, losing 55 per cent
of homes after the red-zoning.
Slowly the houses were replaced
by a weird in-between
space that has now become a
lovely riverside park.
It’s starting to feel like we are
moving on.
We’ve been hunkered down for
years but now we are starting to
think about what comes next.
Understandably, some locals
are concerned about what “next”
looks like.
Regenerate Christchurch
recently released its draft Regeneration
Plan for the area.
It’s a fairly high-level imagining
of the future, but it gives us
some ideas about what we might
look forward to.
I suspect it will be a long time
before we see much more than
stopbanks and stormwater treatment.
In the meantime, the 600ha
red zone park that surrounds us
has been enjoyed by a variety of
groups holding events and developing
transitional use projects.
There is a sense of action and
activity in the red zone that
wasn’t there before.
And I think most locals would
agree that this is great for our
community.
We want people to make use
of the green space around us,
but ask that they do this with
respect.
I think that sometimes event
planners forget that they are
operating in a space that is surrounded
by residential homes.

Fire rages, homes at risk
The people in these homes
have experienced trauma and
loss through the red-zoning process
and they need time to adjust
to the different uses.
A big part of moving on is having
some certainty about what’s
going on.
Together with others from
Burwood and Avondale, the
Dallington Residents Association
has been advocating for increased
communication between
LINZ (which owns most of the
red zone land), city council, and
community groups so we are
well informed about what’s going
on in our area.
Last year, there was a music
event in the red zone.
Local residents heard the concert
but had no idea what it was,
where it was, or when it would be
ending.
This uncertainty created anxiety
for some, which would have
been easily resolved by letting
people know what was happening.
A few well-placed signs and
a more substantial flyer drop to
affected locals would have gone a
long way to help the situation.
It’s no more than you’d ask of
your neighbour if they were having
a loud party.
We need to figure out how
everyone can use this shared
space in a way that respects the
past, and the people who still live
nearby.

In regard to Tim Baker’s
comment, we have had
EQC do pipe inspections
two or three times and the
one we recorded, was by
pipevision.co.nz, on December
10, 2014. The small
blockage was cleared on
that day.
We were never advised
by EQC on any necessity
to lay new drainpipes. But
don’t talk to us about EQC
and their repair work.
John Dunphy
– Council can afford all
the luxury trinkets, cycle
lanes and posh buildings
but can’t deal with
its basic infrastructure
and responsibilities to its
ratepayers. And of course,
the east side can wait even
longer cause with a bit of
luck they’ll get wiped out
by a tidal wave before the
next council election.
Chrissi Tukaki – EQC,
not the residents have
failed to fix
the sewers as stated in this
article.
Janice Belgrave –
How are the residents
supposed to fix their
wastewater pipes, in many
cases, would that actually
be “landlords fail to fix
wastewater pipes”? And
therefore, EQC fail to
pay out to fix wastewater
pipes?
Corey Humm – Not
to worry, Lianne will sort
them out with a few cycle
lanes and art installations.
Who needs sewerage?
A reader responds
to the Pegasus Post
article on having
more frontline police
officers at the New
Brighton Police
Station
Christina Taylor – I
am writing to say that
the New Brighton Police
Station would benefit
from having another staff
member available to be on
the front desk.
I have noticed that
the one staff member
sometimes becomes
overworked, it is also
hard for the clients who
feel uncomfortable about
waiting. Members of the
public should be able to
approach the desk for
advice too without going
away feeling put off.
A reader responds
to the Pegasus Post
article on a Tumara
Park resident calling
for the speed limit
to be lowered on
Rothesay Rd, Putake
Drive and roads
within Tumara Park to
40km/h
Bruce Barbour – Yes,
the speed limit should be
reduced or speed bumps
installed in Rothesay Rd
or Putake Drive, as cars
travel at ridiculous speeds
along there. It’s only a
matter of time before a
serious crash occurs.
Anna Lee School of Dance is one of
Canterbury’s premiere dance schools,

Papanui studio operates from
two purpose-built dance
studios in a modern building.
Anna Lee School of Dance
has a proven history of
students excelling with superb
exam, medal and competition
results. Dance classes are
tailored for preschoolers
through to advanced students,
catering for all levels of
commitment. There are classes
designed for those who wish

the world!) The fun and
supportive environment, with
its emphasis on enjoyment

Cathedral Grammar Pre-School
located within the heart of the city
Our play based learning
approach supports your child
as they begin their exciting
journey as a lifelong learner.
Play, laughter and learning are essential
ingredients for a successful Pre-School
education. The crucial early years need to
be nurtured, shaped and cherished as your
child takes their first steps in education.
Cathedral Grammar Pre-School proudly
teaches the children of tomorrow, today.
At Cathedral Grammar Pre-School your
whole family is welcomed into the wider
embrace of the Grammar community
including whole school fun and functions,
services and support as well as smooth
transition to the Junior School and links to
the Prep School.
In Cathedral Grammar’s purpose built
Pre-School, taught by qualified teachers,
your child will discover by curiosity,
investigation and exploration. Our low
child/teacher ratios, ensure your child’s
quality individual and group learning.
Research states that play may be the
single most important things that humans
do. “Our play based learning approach
supports your child as they begin their
exciting journey as a lifelong learner” says
Principal Scott Thelning.
Your child will develop essential
foundations in literacy and numeracy. He
or she will enjoy the benefits of specialised
facilities, subjects and staff including Art,
Physical Education, Yoga and Chapel.
When children feel good about
themselves and their abilities, they are able
to take flight and explore, discover, take
risks and play, laugh and learn effectively
and successfully. “Self-esteem is at the core
of this development process” Thelning
says.
Being an inner city Pre-School gives
you a wonderfully easy opportunity to
engage in your child’s learning if you are
working in the CBD. Every opportunity
is taken to utilise our central city location
to extend our ‘campus’ from the Botanic
Gardens to the Canterbury Museum,
The Christchurch Art Gallery Te Puna o
Waiwhetu to the Christchurch Transitional
Cathedral, from Tūranga (Christchurch
central library) to the emergency services.
Every day is an open day at Cathedral
Grammar Pre-School. Contact the

Cathedral Grammar School Bamford school
– Every Child, Every Day
2019 edition
The secret of getting ahead is getting
started and at The Cathedral Grammar
School that start is something
extraordinary. Our school is a place of
ambition alongside preparation. We
balance our enduring commitment
to tradition and our Christian values
with an energy to explore and create,
all amplified within small, focused
classrooms and a family centred
environment. Your child’s journey to
excellence begins here with a solid
foundation of academic success and a
well-rounded character.
Cathedral Grammar, with its attached
Pre-School, is a Year 1- Year 8 Primary
School, for both boys and girls. Small
maximum class sizes at every year
level ensures that our teachers build
strong, meaningful and productive
relationships with their students.
Principal Scott Thelning says that the
underlying promise to parents is that
the School will nurture, know and grow
every child, every day in a holistic
manner as they are prepared for life.
“Our student-centred philosophy, caring,
family focussed culture, wonderful
relationships, high expectations and vast
array of opportunities provide a fantastic
environment for all students to thrive.
Our high quality staff employ a variety
of teaching methods within structured
classrooms to provide a balance of
tradition and rigour, while being curious
and adventurous”.
Our school structure is unique among
New Zealand schools and designed to
ensure students have the opportunity to
make the most of their formative years. At
Cathedral Grammar, our students learn
in both co-educational and single-sex
classrooms at times when this best suits
their learning styles. In Pre-School and
the Junior School (Yr 1-3) students learn
in a co-educational environment, while
our Yr 4-8 students attend either our Girls’
School or Boys’ School. “This structure
provides the best of both worlds with
learning, teaching and social interactions
taking place across multiple settings”.
Year 7 opportunities for
girls
Wanting to be assured that your child is
prepared well for secondary school is a
concern for parents. Although the Year
7 level is full for boys in 2019, there are
some vacancies for girls still available.
The Intermediate Years at Cathedral
Grammar are specifically designed to
deliver the best possible preparation
for our girls who attend a variety of
schools across the city, says Head of
the Girl’s School, Brigit McCormack.
“We not only offer the girls a very strong
academic curriculum, we also offer
them a wide variety of opportunities
and the chance to transition into their
teenage years in a supportive, caring
and inclusive environment. Our unique
Mitre Programme for intermediate
students provides opportunities to
develop leadership potential, participate
in Service projects and develop skills
for personal growth and development.
We treasure individuality and strive for
our girls to be inclusive, courageous
with a strong sense of identity. The
girls flourish in our environment which
is based around a specialist teacher
timetable. They leave us as confident and
connected learners who are ready for
the challenges of secondary school and
beyond.”
If you would like to visit the School
and talk to either Scott (Principal) or
Brigit (Head of Girls’ School) please
call us on 3650385 or email principal@
cathedralgrammar.school.nz

Catholic Cathedral College Chisnallwood Intermediate
Catholic Cathedral College has just
celebrated 150 years of history on
its site next to the Cathedral of the
Blessed Sacrament. From the first
arrival of the Sisters of Our Lady of the
Missions in 1868, Catholic education
has been delivered to generations of
Christchurch families in this place.
Today Catholic Cathedral College
is a vibrant community of 450 boys
and girls from Year 7 to Year 13. In
the Marist tradition we focus on the
sense of family and the bonds that
this creates through our academic and
pastoral systems. Our vision statement
is: Guided to live by faith; with mana,
compassion, integrity, and a drive for
personal excellence.
As a Catholic Special Character
school, we aim to develop each
student’s relationship with Jesus, and
each student is supported to be the
best that he or she can be. Besides
excellent academic results each year,
we guide our students to make a
full contribution to their College and
communities through service, respect,
integrity and a strong sense of social
justice.
We celebrate our cultural diversity
whilst acknowledging the important
place of Tangata Whenua and the
obligations we have under the Treaty
of Waitangi in our bicultural society.
Every student from Year 11 is mentored
to ensure he or she is on the most
appropriate academic or vocational
pathway. Our goal is that each
individual will graduate as a young
adult who is confident in their ability,
has respect for themselves and others
and with the knowledge that they have
a faithful relationship with Jesus.
Established as a Junior High School,
Chisnallwood is specifically designed to
meet the needs of students in their preadolescent
years. This design has been
carefully developed over many years
and is based on the best that has been
seen in New Zealand and Internationally.
By enrolling at this school you are
opening doorways to opportunities that
will prepare you fully for secondary and
beyond. A well-balanced mixture of
specialist and home room teaching in
this highly resourced environment will
capture your interest and attention in a
manner that will ensure your success.
Recognised as a leader in its field,
Chisnallwood is nationally renowned
for its achievements particularly in the
areas of music, the arts, sport and all
academic endeavours. This success
is brought about by the quality of
the resources we have and the
commitment of the highly trained and
dedicated teaching staff.
Our values of Respect, Relationships,
Responsibilities and Resilience (Our
4Rs) enable our students to fulfill
our motto which is to challenge the
margins of time and explore what is
beyond.

Starting
a new
school
Whether you have a new entrant, you have moved to a new area or have
children starting at an intermediate or secondary school for the first time,
the feeling of new beginnings can be daunting.
This can be a stressful time for both parents and children alike, so it’s
important that the lines of communication are open so that children can
express their emotions at this time.
If your child is at primary school it’s a good idea to take part in some of
the school drop offs and pick-ups if possible. This means you get to meet
other parents and also allows you to organise all important play dates
that will soon see your child forming new relationships which will settle
them quicker.
Joining sports teams or different organisations within the community
will also help your child meet other children their own age with similar
interests. Make sure you are communicating with your children about the
exciting new possibilities that a new school may bring – new friends, new
teachers and new routines. Making sure they know they can talk with you
about any concerns often gives them peace of mind.

Making the right
impression
Small school has a big
impact
At Hagley we encourage our students to
be aware of their identities, or what they
look like to others.
What our students wear says a lot
about them and of course a lot about
Hagley. For us, it’s simply saying “be
yourself”. Wearing what they like is one
component in establishing whom they
are and also in knowing that they’re in a
school that accepts them for that.
We also encourage our students to
think about what they look like in the
digital world too. John Parsons, a leading
expert on cyber-safety, advises young
people that the message given by
their online appearance should be a
really positive one. Their online identity
should give a “chin up, shoulders back”
message about them. We reinforce that
message and that our students should
actively manage their online reputations.
A negative digital footprint that others
might look at and form a judgement
from is not how they want to appear.
Whatever they are applying for, people
will want to know more about them
and they’ll often find that out online.
We encourage our students to put
on their “best clothes” in the digital
world so that they build themselves an
identity asset online, an identity that
shows a self-confident person. It’s the
persona that they would like to put
forward if they were in fact physically
present in the room with that person
who was checking them out online and
considering them for that scholarship,
job, or whatever they were hoping to be
selected for.
Whatever their plans, we want our
students to value their identities in all
its senses. In many respects, it’s one the
most important assets they have.

Hornby High School community.
What an exciting year we had in 2018,
2019 looks to be even better as we strive
to get ever closer to our vision as ‘a
centre of creative excellence’.
Having occupied the first of our new
buildings, we watch with excitement as
stage two of our rebuild takes place,
giving us some of the best secondary
school buildings in the country at the
moment.
The spaces encourage all the best
learning habits, and every day we see
our amazing students, our beautiful
rangatahi, engaged with and enjoying
their learning.
During an interview with a new parent
late in 2018, he said ‘You are proud
of this school, aren’t you’, to which I
answered ‘yes we are’. He came right
back at me and said ‘When I dropped
off our enrolment forms, I could see it
in your kids.’ And he is so right. There is
much to be proud of at Te Huruhuru Ao
o Horomaka Hornby High School.
In our new buildings some of the best
pedagogy, the most modern curriculum,
is developing as students and staff
explore new, more exciting, and more
engaging, ways to learn together. All
of this exciting learning is magnified
by our use of Chromebooks. The end
result of this is that, for example, writing
achievement is accelerated at twice the
average for children across the country,
one of many achievements of which we
are very proud. We ask that all children
come to Hornby High School with a
serviceable Chromebook.
On top of all that, music, arts, sport and
culture are flourishing in an environment
in which every student is encouraged
to be her or his best. This approach lies
at the heart of our development of the
many gifts and talents that every child
has.
And all of that takes place on the solid
foundation that is our school values:
Commitment, Achievement, Resilience,
and Respect.
Yet again, what an amazing year we are
going to have. Please do join us and be
a part of the extraordinary adventures of
our rangatahi in 2019.

Papanui High School -
Preparing students for
their future
School preparation
“Our aim is simple... to provide the
best education possible for every
student”
Giving students the opportunity
to study from an innovative and
broad curriculum is critical to
providing each student a pathway
that meets their individual needs.
We allow for a greater range
and flexibility in subject choice
including the utilization of the
secondary/tertiary interface.
This reinforces the philosophy
underpinning personalised
learning and is strongly supported
by understanding our students’
interests, passions, talents, and
ultimately their career aspirations.
We understand that for effective
learning to take place, it has
to be implemented in such a
way that students will be highly
engaged. The school does this
in a ‘forward thinking’ way by
creating learning environments
that allow our students to see
value in what they do and achieve.
Papanui “PRIDE” is what we
represent and we demonstrate
this by having young adults leave
our school as confident learners
who have gained the appropriate
qualifications and social skills
to become valued contributing
members of society.
All that we do here is reinforced
by positive relationships, an ethos
of caring, cultural responsiveness,
inclusion, and high expectations
– what we call “Our Full service
Model”. The school highly values
the connectedness of curricular
and co-curricular learning. We have
a philosophical understanding that
the holistic development of the
student is critical to their individual
success.
The school has worked hard to
consolidate recent initiatives to
ensure sustained and continuous
improvement. You are invited to
view our website, school charter,

New research on Gingko
Biloba excites researchers!
For decades scientists believed brain
damage with age, after a stroke or injury
was irreversible and brain neurons could
not be repaired. In more recent times,
new research has shown that neurons
can grow back with the right conditions
and that a special extract of Gingko
Biloba (EGb-761 or TEBONIN) has
been clinically found to assist in this.
The implications for stroke recovery are
obvious, but researchers also know many
of us suffer from undetected “microstrokes”
that over a period of time slowly
reduce our cognitive function. TEBONIN
is prescribed worldwide as a natural
supportive agent for a healthy brain and
cognitive function. It supports healthy
mental performance, concentration, focus,
alertness, motor function and to help
with many conditions including tinnitus
(ringing and noise in the ears), vertigo
and normal balance. TEBONIN improves
micro-circulation and helps the blood
flow reach those critical places it needs to
get. It is a potent anti-oxidant and makes
the red blood cells more pliable and
capillary walls more flexible.
TEBONIN is one of the most widely
studied and researched herbal products in
the world and is the only Ginkgo biloba
extract manufactured via a patented
multi-step extraction process. Each small
tablet contains a highly concentrated
BOOST BRAIN
PERFORMANCE UP TO 30%
TEBONIN is the No 1 Ginkgo Biloba extract in the World with more than 8 million tablets
being consumed every day. It is also the most researched herbal extract with more than 60
controlled clinical studies & over 400 scientific studies. It has been shown to have excellent
efficacy, safety & tolerability. Millions of consumers have trusted TEBONIN for over 30
years to support blood flow, capillary health, brain health & performance.
Studies on TEBONIN Show:
- Improved Brain Performance & Function up to 30%. This includes improvement
in mental sharpness, focus, attention, concentration, understanding, memory & recall.
- Reduces errors made & mental stress.
- The only Ginkgo shown to increase activity in all areas of the brain. Can help restore
brain function after a brain injury such as from a stroke.
- Helps relieve tinnitus (ringing & noise in the ears), vertigo, dizziness & supports normal
balance.
- Improves blood flow to all areas of the body.
- Reduces plaque formation in the blood vessels.
- Protective effect against eyes damage caused by light.
50:1 extract to give you a therapeutic
clinical dose without having to take a large
amount of the herb. Of 25 Gingko biloba
products on the market, and tested by a
major medical journal, only TEBONIN
passed all five of the test requirements.
Ten brands didn’t meet any requirements
and the rest didn’t pass more than three
out of five requirements. TEBONIN is
the only Gingko biloba extract shown
to activated all areas of the brain and is
considered the gold standard in Gingko.
TEBONIN has been trusted by millions
of consumers worldwide for over 30
years with more than 8,000,000 tablets
consumed each day.

WORKSAFE NEW Zealand
has b en a proached in a bid to
fina ly repair the potholes in New
Brighton’s Hawke St car park.
Coastal-Burw od Ward city
counci lor David East wants
WorkSafe to pre sure the car
park’s private owners into
repairing the potholes which are
a “trip and vehicle” hazard.
WorkSafe chief inspector
a se sment southern Da ren
Handforth said it may be able to
take action under the Health and
Safety at Work Act 2015, “as a
person conducting a busine s or
undertaking.”
Mr Handforth said WorkSafe
is aware of the concerns raised by
Cr East abou the car park.
“WorkSafe has completed
an a se sment visi to the site
and is engaging with the owner
to advise them that it is their
responsibility to manage their
risks a propriately.”
Different parts of the car park
are owned by various people
and the Coastal-Burw od
Community Board recently
wrote to them about its concerns
around health and safety.
Cr East said the bi gest i sue
in the past has b en ge ting in
touch with the landlords and
owners and ge ting them to
agr e to anything. “The board
a preciates that multi-ownership
of the parking space may present
a difficulty in co-ordinating
repair/resurfacing but felt obliged
to pa s these concerns onto you,”
said the le ter.
One reply has b en received so
far from an owner who is wi ling
to discu s the i sue. However, a l
the owners would have to agr e
to undertake work.
Cr East said there had b en
a “number of incidences” in
the car park of people injuring
themselves which had gone
unreported.
“I’ve always though that it
has b en quite amazing that we
haven’t had any serious a cidents
or senior citizens perhaps
tri ping in those potholes and
doing themselve some damage.”
He is confiden the new
a proach wi l bring results.
“I think the WorkSafe
involvement may prove to be the
lever that we are l oking for.”

THE PAPANUI-I nes
Community Board has taken the
rare step of starting a petition
to figh the city council over
funding.
Signatures are being co lected
in a bid to get funding for a community
facility in Shirley.
It comes after the city council
removed funding for the centre
pla ned for Shirley Rd, near the
intersection with Hi ls Rd. This
was the site of the former community
centre, which was badly
damaged in the February 2,
20 1, earthquake.
The removal o funding
prompted community board
chairwoman Ali Jones to threaten
to stan down, citing it as her “die
in the ditch” project.
Ms Jone said the board’s role
is to represen the community,
and by gathering signatures from
residents, it was fulfi ling that
role.
“One of the roles of a community
board is to represent and act
as advocate for the interests of its
community and this is what we
are doing. The LTP and a nual
plans are a l about lo bying the
council.”

Cave Rock
Apartments’
owners
expect EQC
sign-off
this week
• By Sarla Donovan
THE OWNERS of Sumner’s Cave
Rock Apartments ar expecting the
Earthquake Commi sion to sign-off
on a se tlement agr emen this w ek.
Body corporate chairman Mike
White said the group had gone
into mediation with IAG and EQC
on February 20, and signed off
on a deal with IAG on February
2 – coincidenta ly seven years
to the day after the February 2,
20 1, earthquake. However, they
are waiting for EQC to sign the
agr ement.
“Given that EQC actua ly drafted
the agr ement, there’ l be no
problem with them doing that.”
The apartment suffere damage
in the February and June, 20 1,
earthquakes and were demolished in
late 2012. In 2016, IAG’s offer of the
difference betw en indemnity value,
$10 mi lion, and the sum insured,
$16 mi lion, was rejected by the body
corporate.
The mediation agr ement
prevented Mr White from disclosing
the se tlement amount, but he said it
involved the two parties paying “a bit
more money than they’d wanted to
earlier.”

Pure South Sharp Blacks, recently
came second a the World
Butchers’ Cha lenge in Northern

It was the firs time Mr Garth

how the team performed.
“We produced some top quality
products and came away
with a g od result so we’re very

The preparation for this year’s
World Butchers’ Cha lenge was
intense as the team members
met in Auckland every two
months for lengthy w ekend
practices.
Mr Garth, who has b en a
butcher for 14 years, said the
competition brought back his
pa sion for the job.
“Doing a l thi stuff and

back for you,” he said.
Mr Garth hopes t own a
butcher shop of his own someday
but says for now he wi l focus
on ge ting mor experience
and on the 2020 cha lenge.
“In two years’ time, we’ l be
going back to try and win the

A CRACKDOWN on mobile
traders acro s the districts could

However, the public has li tle
interest in having input into the
i sue.
Only eight submi sions were
received for a potential bylaw
aimed at regulating commercial
activities in public places.
The district council wi l be
holding a hearing for the Public
Places Bylaw and Policy on Commercial
Activities and Events in
Public Places.
A hearing i scheduled to be
held on Thursday.
The bylaw comes as an increasing
number of mobile traders
are s eking t operate in Selwyn,
especia ly during the summer
months.
In the past year, the district
council has received five inquiries
about se ting up a mobile busine s
on private or public land.
A report said there are two

to the Gr endale Recreation Reserve
Management Commi t e’s
upcoming Anzac Day service.
As a tribute to those who
served, members of the trust wi l
ride horseback to the service.
Mr A pleton said it was
important children were
educated on what soldiers
wen through during World
War 1 and World War 2.
But he said the presentation
didn’t go into t o much detail
and was more of a “show and
te l” to make them aware of what
the soldiers l oked like.
Children were shown the type
of kits horses were required to
wear in the war.

AN U PER Ri carton butcher
has proven himself to be a cut
above his Au sie rivals at an
international competition.
Elite Meats owner Corey
Winder was named in the a l
star team a the World Butchers’
Cha lenge in Northern Ireland.
Mr Winder and his team, the
Pure South Sharp Blacks, which
includes W olston butcher
Jeremy Garth, finished second
in the competition.
He said the cha lenge started
as a “transtasman test match”
seven years ago.
The preparation for this
year’s World Butchers’ Challenge
was intense as the team
members met in Auckland
every two months for lengthy
w ekend practices. Mr Winder
said coming second against 1
other countries was a “fantastic”
result.
“To get second behind Ireland
was a huge achievement and to
be ahead of Australia is an
even bi ger thing for us,” he
said.
But Mr Winder admires the
Australian team.
“Those guys over there
[Australia] are on top of their
game, they do a g od job,” he
said.
“And it just showcases that
New Zealand has got some
of the best butchers in the
world,” he said.
Mr Winder has b en a butcher
since the age of 19.

THE HALSWE L-Hornby-
Ri carton Community Board
has b en given the gr en ligh to
o pose the pla ned qua ry near
Templeton.
Mayor Lia ne Dalziel told the
board on Thursday it had the okay
from the city council to make a
submi sion if Fulton Hogan a plies
for a resource consen to create a
qua ry.
Board chairman Mike Mora
told Western News the submi sion
would likely o pose Fulton Hogan’s
plan.
“You can just about guarant e
it . because we [the community
board] don’t believe qua ries
should be so close to residential
areas,” he said.
Mr Mora said he wasn’t sure if
the city council would endorse the
board’ submi sion.
“I’d like to think so because the
city council has had their eyes
open as we l ove recent years over
the crysta line silica risk,” he said.
Mr Mora said the community
board wi l be “representing and
advocating” for the Templeton
community.
