Expo to focus on crime
prevention, emergencies
• By Matt Slaughter
OUT-THINKING burglars, what
to do in a tsunami and how to
prepare for another big earthquake
will all be topics of discussion at
a large public meeting in New
Brighton.
The Save Our Suburbs safety
expo will give residents in the east
“the knowledge
they need to protect
themselves
and their neighbours,”
said its
organiser Soozie
Bragg.
The expo will

be held on March
9 from 11am
until 3pm at the old Central New
Brighton School site.
It will bring together emergency
services, Civil Defence, community
watch groups, security companies,
Age Concern, dog trainers, cybersecurity,
insurance and self-defence
experts and concerned residents.
More groups are likely to confirm
their attendance as the day gets
closer.
Ms Bragg said educating people
on how they could work together
with police to prevent crime in the
eastern suburbs was a major focus
of the event.

from the editor’s desk
ABOUT TIME. That’s the big disaster and
crime prevention expo set down for March 9
(see page 1).
The eastern suburbs have needed
something like this since the aftermath of
the 2011 quake. There was a wake-up call on
November 14, 2016, when the big Kaikoura quake struck and led
to tsunami worries.
Post the Kaikoura quake, there has been much debate, but little
action, about an evacuation plan – in other words, getting away
from the coast as quickly as possible.
And with a couple of large fault lines in Pegasus Bay, a plan is
fairly critical. So good on Soozie Bragg and Paul Lonsdale for
getting the expo up and running. And it will include some crime
prevention tips too. Be there.

Bus battle almost over for rest home
• By Matt Slaughter
RESIDENTS OF a Mairehau rest
home may have won their battle
with Environment Canterbury
to get an alternative transport
service.
Diana Isaac Retirement Village
resident Graham Tate has met
with ECan representatives to
discuss what
could replace
the bus service
which no
longer stops at
the village on
Philpotts Rd.
The meeting
Graham Tate
comes after a
long fight by
residents to get an alternative
service.
At a meeting on January
17, ECan raised the idea of
providing a service on a trial
basis to transport retirement
village residents to bus stops and
locations that they can no longer
access.
“We’re very happy to look at
an option that I think could be
better than the bus,” Mr Tate
said.
“The welfare of the elderly is
very much about them getting
out and meeting other people
and seeing other things.”
ECan senior manager of public
transport Stewart Gibbon said
the service would be similar
to what is already offered to
residents in rural areas,
where bus services are not
accessible.
Mr Tate said the details of the
service still need to be worked
out.
“What I think would be ideal
would be to run a regular route
in a 4km radius with stops at
places like the malls and at
bus hubs and at St George’s,
Burwood and Southern Cross
hospitals,” Mr Tate said.
Mr Gibbon said ECan had
not decided how big the vehicle
would need to be, but Mr Tate
said an eight-seater would be
ideal. ECan would run the
alternative service on a trial basis
if the idea is given the green
light.
“Discussions to date are
exploring the idea of a trial
period of up to six months to
validate the feasibility of the idea
in this specific urban context,”
Mr Gibbon said.
If the service continued after
the trial, a trust could be formed

between ECan and elected
representatives from the village
to fund it. ECan and the New
Zealand Transport Agency could
provide an annual grant for the
service, but the majority of the
cost would need to be covered by
the trust.
Mr Tate said the drivers
would be a mix of volunteers
from the village and other
community members who
wished to help. ECan will now
discuss the option with Ryman
Healthcare, which owns Diana
Isaac Retirement Village.

MAN ATTACKED BY DOGS
A man was attacked by two dogs
while walking on the corner
of Dudley St and Stapleton St,
Richmond, last Tuesday. Andrea
Tummi said he was bitten in
the back, but the owner of the
dogs ran away after seeing him
bleeding. Police are trying to track
down the owner.
WEED CONCERNS
Residents’ concerns about the
number of overgrown weeds
in Prestons will be discussed at
the next city council meeting by
Burwood Ward city councillor
Glenn Livingstone. Resident Ross

Bid to manage
emergency
strategies
•From page 1
“We need to be able to help the
police to keep the crime under
control and accept the fact that
the police want us to report
everything,” Ms Bragg said.
Ms Bragg said she and a number
of others in the east were left
with damaged properties, no running
water and no toilets after the
earthquakes.
She said her limited knowledge
of what she could do to help
herself during this time had highlighted
the importance of providing
this information on the day.
New Brighton Business and
Landowners Association’s Paul
Lonsdale is also helping to
organise the event. He said the
community
had also not
been prepared
for the tsunami
warning after
the Kaikoura
earthquake, just
after midnight
Paul Lonsdale on November
14, 2016.
This made the tsunami preparedness
side of the expo another
key focus, Mr Lonsdale said.
“Both Sumner and New
Brighton got bottlenecked with
people trying to get out late
at night and some people had
nowhere to go.”
“There’s always this threat
hanging over any coastal
community, and understanding
what to do to ensure that you’re
safe if something should ever
happen I think is an important
thing to know.”
Ms Bragg said she had been to
a number of small-scale disaster
preparedness and public safety
community meetings in the past.
At these, she said people had
often voiced safety concerns,
but discussion rarely took place
around strategies to manage
them. She said this had inspired
her to organise the event.
“We’ve got to help people and
the only way we can do that is by
arming them with knowledge,
because knowledge is power.”
Cost of a doctor’s visit hits hard
The axeing of
community services
card discounts at
some medical centres
has become an issue
nationwide. Matt
Slaughter investigates
what the situation is in
the eastern suburbs
NEW BRIGHTON Health Care
is one of four medical centres in
the east which do not provide
community services card
discounts.
Auckland-based White
Cross Healthcare took over the
ownership of New Brighton
Health Care late last year and
decided to stop providing the
discount.
Travis Medical Centre in
North New Brighton, Woodham
Road Medical and Parklands
Medical Centre are the closest
options for residents in these
areas. However, none of them
offer the community services
card discount. QE II Medical
Centre, Linwood Medical
Centre, Eastcare Health and
North Avon Medical Centre all
offer the discounts.
White Cross Healthcare made
the decision to opt out because of
a new Government policy which
took effect on December 1.
The policy means clinics that
had opted into the community
services card discount can
now only charge card-holders

a maximum of $18.50 for a
doctor’s visit and $12.50 for
children aged between 14 and 17.
The move prompted
Southshore Residents’
Association treasurer Denise
George to voice her concerns
when the group met recently.
Ms George said New Brighton
Health Care’s decision to stop
offering the discount had left her
with no choice but to take the
financial hit when visiting her
doctor.
She said the cost had
sometimes put her off going to
the doctor altogether.
“Because of a health problem, I
have to go every three months, so
when you add my prescriptions
onto it, you’re looking at $80
or $90 every time I go to the
doctor.”
She said she was ill recently,
but instead of visiting the
doctor, she waited until her next
scheduled appointment.
“I thought I can’t afford (it),
so I waited until my doctor’s
appointment and I got told off
PEGASUS POST
. . . because I could have made
myself very ill,” she said.
New Brighton Health Care
currently has 3000 patients
enrolled who have community
services cards. The centre is the
only general practitioner in New
Brighton, South New Brighton
and Southshore.
New Brighton Health Care
clinic business manager Sharron
Harris said it recognised the
financial strain the policy is
having on some patients, and
is considering reintroducing
discounts in the future.
Said Mrs Harris: “New
Brighton Health Care has
decided to remain outside of the
Government’s funding scheme
while it makes a more detailed
assessment of the impacts.”
However, Ms George said these
clinics were sometimes too hard
to get to for the sickest and most
elderly patients.
Eastcare Health practice
manager Fiona McDonald said
its decision to continue to offer
the discount to card-holders
was to ensure patients were not
put off by the same costs as Ms
George had been.
Mrs McDonald said the
community services card
discount decreased the cost of
a doctor’s appointment at the
clinic by $30 for both adults and
children.
“It’s a huge help to people,
especially in this community in
Aranui, so there’s nothing that
will prevent them from coming
when they’re sick.”
Mrs Harris said New Brighton
Health Care sympathised with
community services card-holders
and was assessing the impact of
its policy.
“We are considering the
possibility of introducing
discounts for community
services card-holders because
New Brighton Health
Care recognises the extra
affordability challenges faced
by these patients. We are
currently considering if we can
offer discounts for community
services card-holders and how to
fund them.”

Rallying to beautify Richmond
• By Matt Slaughter
RICHMOND IS looking greener
after a working bee was held
to install planter boxes along
Stanmore Rd.
Richmond residents and
businesses came together with
Richmond Community Garden
representatives to take part in
the Richmond village streetscape
project.
Richmond Residents
and Business Association
chairwoman Hayley
Guglielmo said she and about 20
volunteers had got their hands
dirty installing 10 new planter
boxes along the footpath at the
North Avon Rd end of Stanmore
Rd.
Mrs Guglielmo said the
existing plantings on the footpath
also received a tidy-up.
The planter boxes were repurposed
and donated by the
city council, which also provided
some funding for plants.
Mrs Guglielmo said the planter
boxes would add some muchneeded
vibrancy to Stanmore
Rd’s worn footpath.
“They will have a mixture of
bee-loving, colourful hebes and
herbs for restaurants and shops to
use, so it will look lush and green.
It will brighten up our Stanmore

IN 1993, Mark Ashby had
to relearn how to walk and
talk after a car accident left
him with a serious brain
injury.
He achieved this, and
now 26 years later, the
44-year-old from Woolston
is using art as the next step
towards recovery.
Ashby’s work is on
display at the New Brighton
Library until the end of the
week.
Art is just one of the
activities he has taken up to
aid his recovery.
Ashby is also a keen
bodybuilder who has
competed overseas.
He said his art reflects his
unique view of the world
after his injury.
Ashby said his artworks
have been part of his
journey towards recovery
and he hopes they will help
others going through the
same challenges.
The exhibition is
about “getting over the
stigma of having had the
accident and then being
able to express myself,” said
Ashby.
For others in similar
positions, he said “it will
give them hope.”
He also said keeping
moving was crucial to
his recovery. The mental
fitness he has gained
from painting was just as
important as the physical
fitness he has developed
through a passion for
bodybuilding, he said.
“Getting everything
moving is a wondrous
achievement and that
should be recognised.”

“The value that he

Mr Ready said seeing

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

on Thursday night, the school said
it will only be accepting enrolments
from in-zone applicants.
“Priority” students will now go
on waiting lists.
First priority on the waiting list
will go to siblings of current students,
then siblings of former students, sons
of former students, sons of board
members or board employees and
then out-of-zone applicants.
It comes after debate between
the schools, the Ministry of
Education and east Christchurch
communities following announcements
last year that the suburbs
of Shirley, Avonside, Dallington,
Richmond, Edgeware and parts of
Linwood may not be included for
the enrolment zone at the new site.
The school’s zones will be reviewed
again in May.

POLICE SAY they are unable
to prosecute a motorist who has
allegedly caused damage in the
red zone because there is not
enough evidence.
Avonside resident Patrick
Boland went to police in October
with photographs and video he
took of a man he has dubbed the
‘red zone ram raider.’
Mr Boland gave police the vehicle’s
registration number and
said he had witnessed him driving
erratically in his sport utility
vehicle and damaging gates and
barriers.
A police spokeswoman said
the man has been issued with
infringement notices, including
driving without a licence and a
warrant of fitness.
There was not enough evidence
to support the claim he
had been smashing barriers.
Said Mr Boland: “The method
he uses is just driving straight
through like Rambo. I would
say that’s happened at least three
times. At the moment he seems
to be acting with impunity.
“As a community, all we are
trying to do is keep ourselves
safe,” he said.
Mr Boland’s video footage
shows the man acting
aggressively towards him,

driving erratically and on the
wrong side of the road, but he
has been unable to film him in
the act of driving through the
barriers.
Currently, security within the
red zone area is managed by
Land Information New Zealand.
LINZ group manager land
and property Jeremy Barr said it
has discussed the damage with
police, who patrol the wider red
zone area.
“No action plans have been
developed with the police because
we have not been able to
identify any vehicles causing the
damage.”
“LINZ’s security guards are
very aware of the vandalism, and
patrol the problem areas to try
to stop damage being done. They
have not yet been able to identify
any vehicles causing damage,”
he said.
Last year, there were 25 occasions
where LINZ carried out
repairs to barriers, which cost

“This comes from the maintenance

residential red zone which comes
from the Government,” said Mr
Barr.
Some areas required more
repairs than others.
Six repairs have been
carried out in Avondale, five

Board member launching
business with global goal
• By Jess Gibson
Tuesday January 29 2019
News
A JEWELLERY business set up
by a community board member
to tackle global issues is finally
set to launch.
Bead and Proceed, which
aims to spark up conversations
about the United Nations’ 17
sustainability goals, is set to
launch on February 24.
Its chief executive Bridget
Williams – who is also a
Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood
Community Board member –
plans to host a launch party with
business partners, Luke Gillespie
and Anita Chang, at Avebury
House from 12.30-3pm on the
day of the launch.
New Zealand agreed to adopt
the sustainability goals in 2015.
They aim to end poverty, protect
the environment and minimise
inequality, among other
aspirations, by 2030.
“These goals are for everyone,
no one can be left behind,” said
Miss Williams.
The jewellery kits aim to get
people together to create their
own necklaces, with five beads
that can be painted different
colours to represent the goals
they want achieved.
The money from each kit

purchased will be used to donate
another kit to a low decile school
or community organisation.
Bead to Proceed has partnered
with SILENCE, an organisation
in Kolkata, India, which employs
deaf and physically-challenged
people to craft products and
earn a sustainable income. The
Latest Christchurch news at www.star.kiwi
launch was meant to happen late

TUG LYTTELTON’S first
passenger cruise in three years
has been delayed again.
The cruise was originally
scheduled to take place in
December but was pushed back
to this month. It has now been
delayed again until next month.
Tug Lyttelton Preservation
Society head stoker Mike Bruce
said there is still paperwork to
complete before any passenger
cruises on the restored tug can
take place.
“The boat is fine, everything
is absolutely tickety-boo there.
We are just waiting on the final
sign-off from the maritime safety
authority.”
Mr Bruce said once the
paperwork has been completed,
it could take up to three weeks
to prepare the boat for passenger
cruises.
“If we get the sign-off at the
end of this week, we will have to
reheat the boiler. That’s going to
take five to six days to do, then it
is going to take a few days to get
a roster together. After that it’s
going to be a good two to three
weeks before we get steam up.”
Lyttelton Community
Association chairman Ken
Maynard said he was becoming
concerned the tug boat might not
return at all.

Cruise on hold
“It would be a massive loss if
it was lost forever. It’s one piece
of the puzzle in Lyttelton, if it
goes it could have an impact on
tourism and local businesses in
the area.”
One Lyttelton cafe owner, who
did not want to be named, said
the tug brought a lot of business
to the area.
However, Lyttelton Coffee
Company owner Stephen Mateer
said it did not boost his business.
“My customers tend to be the
more environmentally-friendly
type. The tug has quite a specific
clientele and I don’t notice a
difference in my business when it
is running.”
Mr Mateer, a self-confessed
“greenie”, did not appreciate the
tug’s impact on the environment.
“The tug boat burns coal
and lets out a large amount
of black smoke. If it could be
re-powered with more of an
environmentally-friendly design,
that would be great.”

First national tennis title
for Cashmere youngster
DETERMINED: Hollie Tribble riding at the Oceania BMX
Continental Championships.
PHOTO: DUSTY ROAD PHOTOGRAPHY
Hollie pedals to third at
Oceania BMX champs
• By Jess Gibson
NORTH Avon Christchurch
BMX Club rider Hollie Tribble
has made her mark at an
international level.
Hollie, 8, finished third
at the Oceania Continental
Championships last Saturday
in Te Awamutu, where she
competed against riders a year
older than her.
The event for nine-year-olds
was won by Cambridge rider
Beth Walker. More than 500
riders competed at the champs
– eight of them from the North
Avon Christchurch club.
Hollie qualified after finishing
eighth at the national competiton
in New Plymouth last year, in
spite of suffering a big crash
during the race.
Earlier this month, Hollie
competed at the South Island
BMX Titles in Dunedin, where
she won all of her seven races
and the overall event for girls
aged seven to nine, defending her
2018 title as the top South Island
rider in her category. Hollie
started riding at age four after her
mother Hayley Groves took her
to watch a national competition
in Hornby.
“She decided then that she
CHUFFED: Hollie Tribble
receives her trophy for
finishing third in the ‘girls aged
nine’ section. PHOTO: HAYLEY
GROVES
wanted to be a BMX rider, so
she tested us until she could get
a BMX bike and go to training,”
said Ms Groves.
Hollie said her favourite part
about riding is “travelling around
New Zealand” with friends from
her club. She will soon have to
balance three to four days of
training a week.
“Training is after school so
sometimes homework can be
a challenge, but Hollie tries to
complete her homework before
school each day by getting up
early,” said Ms Groves.
RUBY YOUNG teamed up with
Auckland’s Sasha Situe to win
the girls doubles title at the 12
and under New Zealand junior
championships at Wilding Park
last week.
The 12-year-old Cashmere
player and Sasha were more
than worthy of their No 1
seeding, dropping just three
games in their opening two
matches. In the semi-final they
defeated the all-Christchurch
pairing of Emma Mason and
Tatum Falck 6-2,6-3.
In the final they met No 3
seeds and the all Auckland
pairing of Aisha Das and Renee
Zhang. Ruby and Sasha had a
crucial late break to win the
opening set 7-5. The second set
was an even tighter affair going
to a tiebreaker, which they won
8-6 to win 7-5, 7-6(6).
“It was really exciting and
nerve-racking, but my partner
[Sasha] was really supportive,”
said Ruby.
In singles Ruby defeated
fellow Cashmere player Lucia
Gale 6-4, 6-1 in the first
round. She then accounted for
Ruth Baantarawa from New
Caledonia 6-1, 6-2 before falling
to No 4 seed Maria Galatescu
5-7, 4-6 in a tight quarter-final.
THE CASHMERE Tennis
Club will host one of Tennis
New Zealand’s new money
tournaments being launched
to boost the number of
competitive tournaments on the
national calendar.
Kiwi Money Tournaments
will launch next month with six
pilot events.
The new tournaments will
offer $2000 in prize money per
event.
The men’s draw will have
up to a 32-strong qualifying
field starting on Fridays and a
24-strong main draw starting
Saturday. The women’s draw
will start with a 24-strong main
draw field.
“Every successful tennis
nation has a highly competitive
tournament pathway. New
Zealand was missing an all-year
tournaments circuit where
junior, casual and pro players
could compete against each
other. These tournaments
are the perfect step towards a
complete tournament calendar
SPORTS
COMPETITIVE: Ruby Young (far left) and Sasha Situe (centre
left) won the national 12 and under girls doubles title by
defeating Aisha Das (centre right) and Renee Zhang.
It was the second close
encounter Ruby had had with
Ruth during the week. The two
met at the teams tournament
played before the 12 and
under New Zealand junior
championships which resulted
in ruby losing 6-1, 2-6, 7-10 in a
third set super-tiebreaker.
Ruby – who plays in
Cashmere’s premier women’s
interclub team – began playing
at the age of seven and is
coached by her father Greg
Young who is a former premier
interclub player.
She will begin her first
year at St Margaret’s College
shortly on a sports scholarship.
Ruby is also a rep level football
and plays for Cashmere
Technical.
Bid to boost number
of national tournaments
in New Zealand,” said Tennis
New Zealand performance
coach Christopher Lambert.
Cashmere will host the last
of the six tournaments from
March 29-31. The other venues
holding tournaments from
late February are North Shore,
Auckland, Hamilton, Blenheim
and Timaru.
The winners of the
tournaments will receive $600
in prize money, with defeated
finalists receiving $300. Semifinalists
will receive $50.

The dance floor – a place where bills

stress is gone and nothing matters but the
music. The dance floor is freedom, say the
Cathedral City Line Dancers.
A recent German study tested people
who tried different forms of exercise and
then measured their hippocampuses
(the memory centre of their brains) and
those who did Line Dancing were better
protected from dementia and memory loss.
So, if you like to dance, want a social life
with a friendly bunch of people and a lot
of laughs while exercising your brain, then
Line Dancing could be just what you are
looking for. They even cater for people with

You can have all this, plus meet new

Join a night class at
Papanui High School
It is time to make those New Year
resolutions so why not begin 2019 by
taking some time for yourself and joining
one of the wide range of nightclasses that
are on offer at Papanui High School.
The start of a new year is the ideal
opportunity to get inspired to get out and
learn something new and meet some new
people? Classes for Term 1 begin from
Monday 11 February and the options are
extensive from Art to Yoga and everything
in between we are sure regardless of your
age or interest you will find something
to tempt you. Classes at Papanui High
School are held in a warm, friendly relaxed
environment and our tutors are supportive
and well qualified in their chosen fields.
One of our new courses on offer is
Cake Design, taught by Paula Profitt from
Sweet Revenge Bakery. Paula is a very
experienced Cake Designer and she will
teach students how to layer and fill and ice
a cake to a smooth finish, piping techniques
and the art of a good drizzle along with
mirror glazes and chocolate decorations.
You will also learn how to make fondant
cake toppers in various styles.
For further information and enrolment
in any of our courses please visit our
website www.papanui.school.nz go to the
Adult Education tab at the top right of the
screen and then browse courses, or email
Barbara Roper rpb@papanui.school.nz
or telephone our office on 3520701.
New experiences at WEA
It is almost time for the new term to
start here at the Canterbury Workers
Educational Association (WEA). Just as the
new year brings a chance for us all to reflect
and set goals for positive change in the year
ahead, so to does the new school year for
us at the WEA, as we plan and schedule
courses, talks and learning opportunities
across the coming months. Positive change
(whether for personal or planetary gain)
is what the WEA is all about and we are
excited to offer plenty to support positive
change in the Term 1 programme (which
runs February 11th to April 7th).
With new courses in printmaking and
creative writing, and workshops ranging
from crafting feminism to renaissance
dance there is plenty to help you get creative
this summer.
We also have talks coming up from and
about some truly inspiring people and
organisations. We will be joined by Mojo
Mathers on 20th February (New Zealand’s
first deaf Member of Parliament) for a
look at why disability representation in
politics matters for all of us. Then during
Seaweek (6th March) we will hear from the
volunteers at Sea Shepherd on the threats
to our underwater ecosystems and the
work they are doing to protect them. There
are also talks about Marie Curie, Ernest
Shackleton and William Morris to mention
but a few.
For those wanting to take action in their
own lives to make a difference, a course in
taking sustainability to the next level will
be on Wednesday evenings (it even has
dinner included) followed by one on how
to live well with less (Living Tiny(er)) on
Thursday evenings.
All in all there are more than 40 listed
events, all of which can be booked
online at www.cwea.org.nz . Our printed
programme is available from our front
porch (59 Gloucester street) or at your
local library, and our office is open
9.30-3pm Monday to Friday. We look
forward to answering your questions and
hopefully helping
you to make 2019
a year of new
experiences and
positive learning!

We are continually developing new courses

FREE Arts & Design
course, with NCEA built in
For those looking for a role that
combines artistic and digital talents, then
this outstanding, FREE, entry level course
delivered by local Training Provider
Trainme, is perfect for those wishing to
pursue, graphic design, photography or
digital media as a career.
The course covers the introduction to
media techniques such as drawing and
photography. Students will learn to use
design software and create their own design
concepts while collaborating with other
students on creative projects.
This course is FREE to students aged 16
to 19 and they only have to have NCEA 1
to join. Students without NCEA 1 can be
admitted, if they show artistic or digital
aptitude.
“Many feel that school is not working for
them or they left without qualifications,”
says Rhys Pollard, Marketer with tertiary
educator Trainme. “While not necessarily
academically minded, they do
have artistic talents and are very
much into digital technology.”
“This FREE six-month
Trainme course, combines
these in a very hands-on,
practical way, giving them an
intro into various digital media.
This way, they can decide which
direction to pursue as their
career focus.”
“As an NZQA approved
programme, NCEA credits
are built in, so if they apply
PEGASUS POST
themselves, they can graduate with a New
Zealand Certificate in Arts and Design
Level 2, as well as gaining credits towards
NCEA level 1 or 2.” Says Pollard.
“NCEA results will depend on how many
credits they bring to the course to start
with, but as it’s a fun subject, it won’t feel
like school at all.”
Successful Graduates from this
programme could pathway into higher
study in media arts, which could include
graphic design, video production,
photography or one of the many emerging
digital-based careers. Places are limited, so
students are encouraged to apply as soon as
they can.
Enrolments are Now Open, for a
February start. Contact Trainme at their
Addington campus for more information

REAL ESTATE
Luxury waterfront residence - one of NZ’s finest homes
145 Main Road, Redcliffs
Price: $3,795,000
4 bedrooms | 3 bathrooms | 4 toilets | 3 living rooms | 1 dining room | 1 office/study | 3 car-garage | Listing Number: PI54988
Rarely are we favoured with the
opportunity to bring to the market a home
of this quality and size within a prestigious
neighbourhood, where luxury residences
are few and far between. With all the
earthquake repairs thoroughly completed
the house is now insured with NZI ready
for the next owners to enjoy its splendour.
Epitomizing a cutting edge design,
this striking home is a commitment to
contemporary architectural language and
unparalleled luxury. Designed by Stufkens
+ Chambers Architects the home has
perfectly encapsulated an ambience of
timeless elegance, while forsaking nothing
in practicality and functionality.
With a rich floor area of 501sqm, the
home built in 2010 is notable for the way
in which it explores the three separate
buildings joined by transparent links
wrapped around an open courtyard
to create a timeless, modern building,
appropriate to its urban location.
With precise planning and detailing it
incorporates four bedrooms, several living
areas, soundproof media room, mezzanine,
study, gym, pool/spa, and an air conditioned
wine cellar as well as triple car garaging.
All with water views and effortless indooroutdoor
flow, lighting and well thought out
landscaping, it is the perfect result.
The natural palette of materials and
colours used throughout the home delivers
on a promise of calm and clarity with oak
timber veneer, timber flooring, exposed
aggregate concrete walls, frosted glass
and simple white interior. Inspections
will reveal the full extent of the luxurious
detailing. Automated roller blinds, localized
air-conditioning, double-glazing, extensive
underfloor heating, smart security and
home automation system start a very long
list of quality specifications.
Located just a few minutes to either the
city or the beach, with local amenities
meaning you will never need to leave this
pinnacle position
The extravagance of this home requires
new occupants and prudent purchasers
will recognise that this is indeed a rare
opportunity for a life that excites the senses.
Adequate superlatives elude us, so we must
make do with just two words - SEE IT!
