Battle against bottle store continues
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
A BATTLE to stop another
liquor store from opening in
Halswell is continuing to rage
on.
The Halswell Residents’ Association
has appealed the decision
to allow off-licence liquor store
Bottle-O Halswell to open on
29 Ensign St, with the opening
hours of 9am-11pm daily.
The appeal was made to the Alcohol
Regulatory and Licensing
Authority.
The bottle store won’t be able
to open until the appeal period is
finished.
The bottle store was approved
by the district licensing committee
last month and had 37 objections
against the application.
There were also five petitions
containing 32 signatures against
the application.
Residents’ association chairman
John Bennett said
the fact it wants to put an offlicence
facility in the middle
of suburbia is not good for the
community.
“We believe it was wrong and
we think that the community
deserves better,” he said.
In October it objected to the
application with concerns there
would be “many aspects of
amenity loss” if it was approved.
Mr Bennett said the
association believes there are
sufficient facilities in Halswell for
alcohol with Craythorne’s Public
House, Super Liquor and New
World Halswell.

ANOTHER PROMISING young
sportsman has gone to the United States to
pursue his dream.
On page 10 today, reporter Gordon
Findlater talks to golfer Ben Baker who has
taken up a four-year golf scholarship at Nicholls State University
in Louisiana. He will join the thousands upon thousands of
other promising young golfers in the US trying to break into
secondary tours which can springboard you onto the PGA.
Baker, 19, is a product of Christchurch Boys’ High School,
which won its maiden New Zealand secondary schools title in
2017. Baker is now the third member of that promising team
to head to the US on a golf scholarship, following Tom Parker
(University of Oregon) and Dominic Brettkelly (Western
Kentucky University). Lots of talent out there.

In Brief
Fire rages, homes at risk
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
THE CITY council is remaining
tight-lipped over code of
conduct complaints involving
Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton
Community Board members.
It has refused to reveal details
to Southern View on the behindclosed-doors
sessions that went
on last year to resolve issues
amongst the board.
But a residents’ association
which labelled the board “dysfunctional”
says the information
should be public.
Central Riccarton Residents’
Association secretary Garth
Wilson said the ratepayer should
know if there is “dysfunction”
on the board.
“It is the ratepayers’ business,
it is the ratepayers’ money that
is being squandered by this
dysfunction,” he said.
His views were backed by
Templeton Residents’ Association
chairman Garry Kilday,
who said the public should know
what is happening.
A request by Southern View
for all correspondence between
Dr Edwards and the community
board on the code of conduct
of fellow board members was
refused.
A city council spokesman said
the privacy of those who make
TROUBLE: The city council is refusing to release information
on conflict between the Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton
Community Board which led to behind-closed-door meetings
with the mayor and chief executive.
complaints to the city council or
the nature of the complaints are
not generally released.
He said releasing the information
could have a “negative
effect” on expressing their opinions
openly in the future.
“In the council’s view, the
reasons for withholding these
details are not outweighed by
public interest considerations.”
Southern View reported last
year the board privately met
with city council chief executive
Karleen Edwards and Mayor
Lianne Dalziel in October.
Dr Edwards had received
complaints about the conduct of
board members.
She told Southern View the
meeting centred on challenges
they faced, in particular, surrounding
the Denton Park
decision-making process, their
relationships and joint-decision
making.
But Halswell-Hornby-
Riccarton Community Board
chairman Mike Mora said issues
it had faced “absolutely” did not
get in the way of the board getting
the job done.
“Our record is we get the job
done. Everything we have been
asked to do or has been put in front
of us we will make a decision either
one way or another,” he said.
Mr Mora said it is not the only
board in the city facing code of
conduct issues.
The Papanui-Innes, Coastal-
Burwood and Linwood-Heathcote-Central
Community Board
have faced code of conduct
issues over the past year.
But Dr Wilson said the association’s
experience with the
board is it is unable to resolve any
issues in a timely manner and it
now goes above the board to Dr
Edwards to get things done.
“We are not saying the
personalities on the boards are
hopeless. We are saying the
board is dysfunctional and it
does not achieve anything,” he
said.
Mr Mora said it passes resolutions
at the board and has to
wait on staff to implement them.
“It is the way bureaucracy
works in Christchurch,” he said.
Deputy chairwoman Helen
Broughton said she will be meeting
with two senior city council
staff members today over the
process in place for elected
members.
SWIMMING POOL HOURS
A bid has been made to have Te
Hapua: Halswell Summer Pool’s
open for longer. A notice of
motion filed by Halswell-Hornby-
Riccarton Community Board
member Debbie Mora will be
brought to the board today. The
pool’s current hours are 11.30am-
7pm. It opened for the summer
season on November 17 and will
close again on March 31.
PARKING RESTRICTION
The Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton
Community Board will make
a decision today on whether it
will approve the installation
of a 10min parking restriction
at 104 Hayton Rd. It is a result
of a takeaway business owner
contacting the city council to
have short-term, on-street
parking to service the business
property.
TRAILER OVERTURNS
A blockage on the Christchurch
Southern Motorway was caused
by a truck’s trailer overturning on
Friday morning. The trailer lost
its load of soil causing a blockage
on the eastbound lane near the
Wrights Rd overbridge. A police
spokeswoman said there did not
appear to be any injuries. The
road was cleaned up and trailer
removed.

Pathway to sports hub idea
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
A PATHWAY to the new Ngā
Puna Wai Sports Hub could be
built to keep children off busy
Halswell roads.
A junior council made up
of primary school pupils in
Halswell will meet in March to
discuss building a pathway from
Aidanfield Christian School to
the $100 million sports facility.
City councillor
Anne
Galloway said
the idea is to
allow parents
to park safely
at the school’s
car park as
Anne Galloway
opposed to
parking on
Aidanfield
Drive to take their children the
Nga Puna Wai Sports Hub.
It would mean children would
avoid walking on Aidanfield
Drive, Euphrasie Drive and Augustine
Drive.
“It is getting kids involved
in decision-making and in
civics which is something I am
passionate about,” Cr Galloway
said.
It is estimated about 5433 vehicles
travel on Aidanfield Drive
between Nash Rd and Donovan
Place daily.
CIVIC DUTY: The Halswell Ward junior council will meet in
March to plan building a pathway between Aidanfield Christian
School and the Ngā Puna Wai Sports Hub.
On average, 499 vehicles
use Eupharasie Drive between
Josephine Cres and Benedict St
daily.
Instigated by Cr Galloway in
2017, the Halswell Ward junior
council is made up of pupils year
5-8 from Seven Oaks School,
Oaklands School and Aidanfield
Christian School.
Cr Galloway said it is planning
to invite the newly completed
Knights Stream School and
Wigram Primary School to the
junior council when they are up
and running.
The project will also be worked
on in conjunction with the
Student Volunteer Army and the
city council.
The pathway is in the early
stages with the cost and construction
time lines still yet to be
discussed.
“We are hoping we do all of
that with voluntary labour but
we need to plan where it will be,”
Cr Galloway said.
DANGEROUS: The tram shelter on Main Rd will remain closed
due to concerns over the condition of its roof.
Moncks Bay tram shelter
deemed a quake risk
• By Louis Day
THE MONCKS Bay tram
shelter will remain closed due to
earthquake risk.
The 85-year-old building on
Main Rd has been closed
since Christmas Eve.
A recent assessment
indicated the condition of
the roof has compromised
the structural integrity
of the shelter, leaving it
vulnerable to quakes.
City council transport
operations manager
Steffan Thomas said he
was not sure how long the shelter
would be closed, or how much it
would cost to repair.
Redcliffs Residents’ Association
secretary Pat McIntosh was
frustrated to see the historic
building deteriorate.
“We have been asking them
[city council] to repair the shelter
for at least the last year.”
Linwood-Central-
Heathcote Community
Board member Darrell
Latham said it is vital the
shelter be reopened as soon
as possible.
“The Moncks Bay tram
Darrell shelter is an iconic building,
Latham well-used by bus patrons
and coastal pathway
walkers alike. It is very sad to
see that it is fenced off. However,
public safety must always be the
first priority,” he said.

Shearing leads to llama drama
• By Louis Day
IT TOOK seven people to
contain two llamas which
escaped from their farm in
Governors Bay.
Governors Bay resident of
22 years Gail Weaver said she
was quite surprised to see two
llamas running around at the
bottom of her driveway.
Mrs Weaver said it only took
twenty minutes to reunite the
two stray llamas with their
herd.
“They were very good, I
don’t think any of us had to
touch the llamas at all, we just
encouraged them in the right
direction, they were very happy
and docile. Somebody was also
in a car and parked across the
road to stop them from going
downhill.”
The two llamas, Echo and Lily
are now safe and sound with
the rest of their herd.
“When we got them up to the
field, a lot of other llamas came

School construction on track
• By Louis Day
REDCLIFFS SCHOOL is on track
to be completed by 2020.
The relocation of the sewer
main and removal of remaining
vegetation was completed over the
Christmas holidays.
The foundations of the new
school are now set to be put in
place so construction can begin.
Redcliffs School principal Rose
McInerney said she was delighted
to see the new school start to come
together.
“The school is the heart of the
community and it always has
been, so it’s kind of like bringing
the heart back.”

The school has been based in
van Asch Deaf Education Centre
in Sumner for the last seven and
a half years after the school was
damaged in the 2011 earthquakes.
The relocation of the school
to the old Redcliffs Park site has
prompted a reshuffle of the local
traffic system.
Mrs McInerney acknowledged
the impact that this would have on
Redcliffs residents.
“I’m very aware that change

us, as a school, we are so excited
because in one years time we are

2 February – 6 March 2019
Although born and raised in the American Midwest, John Emery
has spent the past twenty-five years shuttling back and forth
between Dayton, Ohio and Burkes Pass, New Zealand, where he
established a second home and studio in 2000. These places —
so far distant in miles and cultural experience — have distinctly
shaped Emery’s vision and art.
My painting process typically begins with a solitary object, my
sketchbook journal, or a bird’s song that triggers my curiosity,
a visual narrative is then constructed. As with all my works, some
elements become three-dimensional as I form them from paper,
the most versatile material I know. Thus, the tromp l’oeil illusion
of a painted object and the reality of a constructed object shift the
perspective and perception of the work and force the viewer to
consider the point where reality and the imagined meet.
The paintings, like memories, are often not what they seem.
The result is a personal narrative.

Teen’s gift card business booming
Baby gear
impresses
Jacinda Ardern
• By Louis Day
SUMNER 13-YEAR-OLD Zoe
Elmey has sold more than 4500
gift cards featuring her own
designs, with the prime minister
being her most notable recipient.
Zoe sent some of her cards,
and bibs and teething rings
from her baby product range to
Jacinda Ardern as part of the
prime minister’s Christmas card
competition.
The former Sumner School
student was astounded when she
received a letter from Ms Ardern
thanking her for the gifts.
“It was amazing I didn’t expect
anything back, I thought it was
just going to add to the pile of
things she probably receives.”
Zoe started the business when
she was 10, since then her cards
have been sold in 22 stores across
the country as well as a shop in
Eastbourne, south-east England.
She has 26 different designs
which feature on various pieces
of artwork.
Fifty per cent of the proceeds
of a turtle card are donated
to Greenpeace to help them
continue to protect turtles from
plastic pollution.
She has also recently started
her own baby range which was
inspired by the arrival of her
newborn sister Hollyanne.
“I made so much stuff for her,
I was knitting and sewing and I
just loved the bibs and the teething
rings so I just started selling
them.”
Zoe sews all of the baby bibs,
burp cloths and material covering
her teething rings by hand,
which can take up to 20min.
“I’m probably different to the
usual teenager hanging out at the
beach and stuff. Basically, any
free time I have after school I’m
sewing and working on the baby
range.”
Zoe’s mother Becky Nisbet
CREATIVE: Zoe spends a lot of her free time sewing the items
in her baby product range. Right – A letter of thanks from
Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern. PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER
said she had shown potential
from a very young age.
“When Zoe was at pre-school
she would spend all day doing
arts and crafts and making
presents for me when other kids
were in the playground and
sandpit.”
Ms Nisbet said she started
the business for her daughter to
encourage her to pursue a career
in art.
“My older sister was good at
art and my parents pushed her
into graphic design and away
from art, I wanted Zoe to do
something she loved and not just
something that makes money.”
Zoe and her mother were
forced to move house to accommodate
her booming business.
“We had boxes of her cards
all through the living room and
especially with having a baby
I got a bit fed up with that, so I
wanted a house that had an office
for her.”
Zoe’s business boomed after
her mother would show her
cards to gift shops while they
were on holiday.
“I just can’t help myself, we go
into the shop and just show them
the cards and they either show
an interest or not, they often do
though.”
Akaroa Dolphins Shop’s
Natalie Stuart said Zoe’s cards
were extremely popular with
customers.
“People come in and are
astounded that the cards were
made by someone so young, they
sell like hot cakes.”

Baker in US to take
up golf scholarship
• By Gordon Findlater
BEN BAKER headed stateside
on January 13 to begin a
four-year golf scholarship at
Nicholls State University in
Louisiana.
The 19-year-old finished his
time at Christchurch Boys’ High
School at the end of 2017.
Baker took a gap year, which
has paid off for him with the
opportunity to become part of
Nicholls State’s golf programme.
He started playing golf when
he was 11 after being introduced
to the sport by his father and
brothers who already played.
“After I gave up rugby from
getting injured too often, I
decided to give golf a go. We had
heard Russley Golf Club had a
great junior programme so we
headed down to have a look and
get some info on it, then signed
up later that week,” said Baker.
He was part of the
Christchurch Boys’ High School
team which won their maiden
New Zealand secondary schools
golf title in 2017. Baker is now
the third member of that team
to head to the US on a golf
scholarship, joining Tom Parker
(University of Oregon) and
Dominic Brettkelly (Western
SPORTS
Kentucky University).
At the national tournament,
CBHS led by one shot after
the first round before the pair
of Parker and Baker went
bogey-free in the second round
to widen the gap on the field
and lead CBHS to their first
national title. Barker was part

of the Canterbury under-19
team which finished third at
last year’s national provincial
tournament. He was also part
of Russley’s men’s inter-club
team which defended their
Woodward Cup title.
Baker is majoring in business
management at Nicholls State.
“I have met heaps of people
already and everyone has been
welcoming, which is nice. I
have my first tournament on
Saturday at the La Tour Golf
Club,” said Baker.

invited to bolster the Wellington Phoenix Soccer School

CHRISTCHURCH United
talents Seamus Gallagher and
Nicholas Murphy have returned
from Japan with incredible
memories, new friendships and
invaluable new experiences about
what is required at the highest
level.
The two Christchurch United
players were invited to bolster
the Wellington Phoenix Soccer
School under-12 squad for a gruelling
two-week tour around Japan
where they played 11 matches
against some of Japan’s leading
professional football clubs.
Nicholas said he was grateful to
have experienced “a-once-in-alifetime
opportunity” on and off
the pitch, as a footballer and as a
young person.
The St Bede’s College student
had been immensely impressed
by the intensity of his Japanese
peers. “They were quick, disciplined
and kept their hunger for
the whole game,” said Nicholas.
Seamus, who attends St
Thomas’, was inspired by playing
against teams who operate at a
professional level. “It left me with
the question of how do I close the
gap between what I can do and
how they play in Japan?”
As the tour progressed, the
Christchurch United players and
their Phoenix teammates proved
that they could adjust to their new
opponents and environments.
The Phoenix team beat five Japanese
club sides, including a nailbiting
penalty shoot-out against
Funabashi FC in the semi-final,
before the top Japanese professional
club Kashiwa Reysol proved to be
too strong in the final.

Bid to boost
number of tennis
tournaments
Tuesday January 29 2019
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 in New Zealand,” said
Tennis New Zealand performance
coach Christophe 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. Semi-finalists will receive
$50.
First national title for Cashmere youngster
RUBY YOUNG teamed up
with Auckland’s Sasha Situe
to win the girls doubles title at
the 12U 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.
It was the second close
encounter Ruby had had with
Ruth during the week. The two

which resulted in ruby losing
6-1, 2-6, 7-10 in a third set supertiebreaker.
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

Wide range of services to
make you feel beautiful
“Beauty is when you can
appreciate yourself. When you
love yourself, that’s when
you’re most beautiful.”
- Zoe Kravitz
What better way to love yourself and be
beautiful than to take time out of the hustle
and bustle of life and simply stop. That’s the
suggestion from Melissa Hibbert, former
Top To Toe Senior Therapist with 13 years’
experience, who has teamed up with Elite
Haircuts in Barrington Street to offer the
community excellent and affordable beauty
services.
These include: massage from $48,
manicures and pedicures (natural nails
only) from $30, facials from $45, back
exfoliation and massage complete with
hot towels $50, spray tans from $30, lash
and brow tinting from $10, and men’s and
women’s body and facial waxing.
Elite Haircuts would like to introduce...
For facials, she uses the Sukin range,
and for body treatments she uses Harbour
Botanicals, a natural range of products
made in Diamond Harbour from locally
grown flowers and herbs.
A mother of two youg children, Melissa
has lived in Spreydon since she was a child.
Her mother, Sue Forbes, the former owner
of Top To Toe Beauty Clinic, inspired
Melissa to train at the National School Of
Aesthetics and become a qualified beauty
therapist.
The two worked alongside each other
for many years, before earthquake damage
closed the Breezes Road clinic Melissa was
managing.
After teaching singing for some time,
while caring for her young family, Melissa
realised she missed beauty therapy.
“I missed meeting people from the
community, getting to know them and
making them feel comfortable and relaxed
and leave feeling beautiful,” she says.
That prompted her to launch her new
business venture, The Glow Room Beauty,
based in the Elite Haircuts premises.

Bridge is not only a wonderful, stimulating
game, it is also splendidly social. We have
had much pleasure in seeing many new
friendships flourish over the years.
House of Cards is especially renowned
for its teaching and we have taught literally
thousands of beginners as well as improvers,
in Christchurch and around New Zealand.
We have run several national teachers’
conferences and have been instrumental
in creating a national standard for bridge
teachers.
We have also written a whole series of
bridge books for new and improving players
which are widely used in New Zealand,
Australia and the United Kingdom.
We are a friendly, enthusiastic team
who welcome new players. We have four
sessions dedicated especially for the novice
player, so you needn’t feel nervous!
We will also introduce you to

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
two left feet.
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!

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
SOUTHERN VIEW
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

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!
