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 

Local 

News 

Now 

In Brief 

Fire rages, homes at risk 


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 


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 

Rugby Club members Sophie and Lara Stewart, Pūkeko Centre 

chairman Maurice Lawlor, Mayor Lianne Dalziel and committee 

member Wayne Eden. 

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.

Crackdown on ‘fatal five’ 

 

•From page 1 

No tickets were issued on 

Mairehau Rd. 

He said most people police 

issued a speeding ticket to were 

“philosophical.” 

“Most of them didn’t try to 

make too many excuses . . . they 

just realised they had made the 

mistake and they had to pay the 

price,” he said. 

Drivers caught speeding 

10km/h or less over the limit 

will be fined $30, $80 for 11- 

15km/h over the limit and $120 

for 16-20km/h. 

The highest speed over 

the limit recorded by police 

was a vehicle driving 72km/h 

in a 50km/h zone on Avondale 

Rd. 

“We got them on a laser and 

they must have seen us and 

turned off on a side street but 

we are always prepared for 

that,” Sergeant Currie said. 

Police took off after the vehicle, 

stopped them and issued a 

notice. 

“They gave the excuse they 

didn’t know where they were 

and they were lost. I said if you 

were, we would have given you 

directions as well,” Sergeant 

Currie said. 

Police are also planning to 

target traffic outside primary 

schools as the academic year

Rd when police held a checkpoint last year.

this month. 

Sergeant Currie said it will 

be looking at making sure 

seat belts are restrained, 

drivers are not causing parking 

problems around the schools 

and ensuring children and 

new entrants get to the school 

safely. 

“You never know when we are 

going to turn up so you have to

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.

Lower speeds near schools likely 

be installed on side roads including 

Atlantis St, Blue Gum Place, 

Wattle Drive, Saltaire St and Marriotts

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 

60km/h on Frosts Rd and

up towards Bassett St . . . 

it just needs uniformity 

around the speed zones he 

said.

spokeswoman Jo Zervos said the 

school speed zones and lowering 

the speed limits are “common

She said it would have been 

better if the school was located

until January 28. To make a

$102k for 

organisations 

in the east 

EIGHT organisations across 

the eastern suburbs will benefit 

from $102,188 in grants from 

the New Zealand Community 

Trust. 

The largest grant was awarded 

to Tennis Canterbury, which 

is based at Wilding Park. It received 

$50,000 to go towards the 

salary of its general manager. 

Arawa Canoe Club received 

$7000 to attend the canoe sprint 

national championships later 

this year. 

Parklands Christchurch United 

Softball Club received $2000 

to attend the NZ open men’s 

clubs championships. Coastal 

Spirit Football Club received 

$15,000 for coaching courses 

and a salary for its football development 

manager, while New 

Brighton Cricket Club received 

$4000 for equipment. 

Parklands Rugby Football 

Club received $4187 to put 

towards equipment. 

Rawhiti Golf Club received 

$10,000 to repair the roof of its 

clubhouse, while $10,000 will go 

to the White Elephant Trust for 

a communications manager. 

A total of $459,155 was 

awarded to organisations across 

Christchurch. 

Grant brings sports hub one step closer 


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. 


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. 

The trust is currently working

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. 

ADverTOrIAL 

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

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

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.

Association

Bebe Frayle 

writes 

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.

LICENSED SALES CONSULTANT REAA 2008 

Beautifully presented by my fastidious vendor this standalone 

townhouse is a smart choice for those who want an easy-care property 

in a popular location. 

With spacious open plan living leading onto an enclosed conservatory 

you can entertain in comfort. The added benefit of a downstairs toilet is 

always a good plus to any property. With good indoor/outdoor flow from 

the conservatory area to an immaculate courtyard and garden. Enough 

to potter around in and perhaps grow some vegetables, but easy care 

enough that you can also have your weekends free to enjoy the many 

amenities the area offers. 

Two large double bedrooms upstairs along with a roomy bathroom 

complete the package this lovely home has on offer. 

A good sized single internal access garage keeps your car tucked away at 

night, along with off street parking as well. Secure fencing allows you to 

keep children or pets safe while outside.

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.

PEGASUS POST 

Enrolments for Term 

One at Anna Lee 

School of Dance are 

being taken now 

UPGRADE: Building consents put on hold in Aranui will likely be granted when 

the suburb’s sewerage system is upgraded. 

The fun and supportive environment, with its 

emphasis on enjoyment, ensures students feel 

comfortable as they learn dance. Students in regular 

dance classes benefit from increased confidence 

and coordination, self-esteem and self-discipline. 

Readers respond to 

the Pegasus Post 

article on building 

consents in Aranui 

being put on hold 

because of capacity 

issues with the 

suburb’s sewerage 

system 

Les Hibbard – We 

have lived in Sandown 

Cres since 1965. Most 

homes were owneroccupied 

through a State 

Advances loan. 

Now most homes are 

owned by speculators. 

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, 

offering specialised classes in ballet, jazz, 

contemporary and hip-hop. With studios 

in Papanui, Ferrymead/Sumner, Halswell 

and the Selwyn District (Ladbrooks 

and Lincoln), we offer a unique blend 

of a family focused studio with all the 

benefits of a large, well-established 

school – multiple exam/ 

grading opportunities, large 

scale recitals at the beautiful 

Isaac Theatre Royal, quality 

teaching staff who really care 

about their students. The 

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 

to dance for fun and fitness, as 

well as those who are aiming 

for a career in dance (we 

have past students currently 

dancing in companies, 

professional shows and 

full-time schools all around 

the world!) The fun and 

supportive environment, with 

its emphasis on enjoyment 

ensures students feel comfortable as they 

learn dance. Students in regular dance 

classes benefit from increased confidence 

and coordination, self-esteem and selfdiscipline.

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.

Cathedral Grammar School Bamford school 

– Every Child, Every Day 


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@

needs of students in all subject areas

experiences to support their learning. 

This year to provide learning 

experiences we have visited the beach, 

museum, art gallery, Travis Wetlands 

and the Botanic Gardens. We have a 

thriving Kapa Haka group and choir. Our 

sports teams are known for their fair play 

and determination. 

Bamford School is a small school with a 

strong whanau feel where connections 

are easy to make and all staff know

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.

PEGASUS POST 

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.

Ao o Horomaka. Warm greetings to the 

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, 

ERO report, and/or contact the 

school for more information.

a close its time to start preparing 

for the year ahead and getting your

weeks leading up introduce earlier 

bedtimes and gradually wake the 

kids earlier each morning to ease 

them back into a healthy sleep 

wake cycle. 

Serving meals at home which 

are in line with what the school 

timetable dictates is also a good 

way to get your kids back into the 

rituals schools demand and helps 

accustom the little ones adapt 

before the school year begins.

location in the household will 

make sure each family member is

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.”

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

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.”

A WOOLSTON butcher proved 

to be a cut above the rest in an 

international competition. 

New World Fe ry Rd butcher 

Jeremy Garth and his team, the 

Pure South Sharp Blacks, recently 

came second a the World 

Butchers’ Cha lenge in Northern 

Ireland. 

It was the firs time Mr Garth 

had competed in the cha lenge 

and he was “rea ly proud” of 

how the team performed. 

“We produced some top quality 

products and came away 

with a g od result so we’re very 

ha py,” he said. 

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 

m eting new people, s eing new 

ideas, it just brings that flair 

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 

title,” he said.

A CRACKDOWN on mobile 

traders acro s the districts could 

be l oming. 

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 

str et operators in Darfield, a 

coff e cart is parked beside the 

railway in Ro leston, and a pi za 

cart visits Lincoln w ekly betw en 

September-May along with a Thai

Pupils learn about role of war horses 

GR ENDALE SCHOOL pupils 

have taken a step back in time, 

s eing first hand what men and 

horses l oked like during war. 

The New Zealand Mounted 

Rifles Charitable Trust president 

Mark A pleton and member 

Mike Donaldson t ok their 

horses to the sch ol on Monday, 

in a bid to educate pupils on the 

sacrifice their ancestors made in 

World War 1 and World War 2. 

Mr A pleton and Mr Donaldson 

a rived a the sch ol dre sed 

in World War 1 uniforms while 

their horses Tommy and Kruze 

wore 1 0-year-old sa dles donated 

to the trust. 

The presentation is a prelude 

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.
