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 

Soozie Bragg 

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.

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 


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 

Williamson said he had emailed 

city council members about the 

weed problem, which had been 

getting progressively worse since 

he moved to the area in July. Cr 

Livingstone had been out to view 

it for himself and city council 

staff inspected some of the worst 

affected areas on Thursday. 

KITTEN RECOVERING 

Brighton the kitten is recovering 

after being thrown from a moving 

vehicle. On January 9, witnesses 

reported the cat, which was taped 

inside of a shoe box, being thrown 

from a Holden Commodore on 

New Brighton Rd, near the Bower 

Tavern. The SPCA now says he is 

expected to make a full recovery 

and is looking for a new home.

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 


STRUGGLE: Denise George says her bank account and health 

are suffering because of the New Brighton Health Care 

centre’s decision to no longer provide a community services 

card discount. (Below) – New Brighton Health Care. 

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 


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 

Rd village.” 

Mrs Guglielmo said the project 

had been part of a drive to clean 

up Richmond’s earthquakedamaged 

footpaths and provide 

something good for its people.

difference. “After the earthquake,

Monday. “But even then,

She said the new planter boxes 

could attract new business and 

it was great to see residents and

something about it.

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.” 

Ashby said painting also

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.

SBHS 

at capacity 

• By Sophie Cornish 

SHIRLEY BOYS’ High School has 

announced it is now at capacity 

for all year levels and will only be 

accepting in-zone applicants for 

2019. 

It comes after debate within the 

community following a new enrolment 

zone for the school’s shared 

site on QE II Park, which it will 

share with Avonside Girls’ High 

School. It plans to move to the site 

later this year. 

In a post on its Facebook page 

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

about $4000. 

“This comes from the maintenance 

budget. Funding is 

from the Canterbury recovery 

appropriation to maintain the 

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 

in Dallington, and four in 

Burwood and Bexley areas.

Board member launching 

business with global goal 

• By Jess Gibson 


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

member Bridget Williams (right) and her business partner Anita 

Chang are set to launch of their company next month. 

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 


launch was meant to happen late 

last year but was delayed to allow 

SILENCE employees more time 

to complete the products.

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

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.

stress is gone and nothing matters but 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

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!

The full programme for Term 4 is on our

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

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!
