AFTER 20 years of caring for
some of Christchurch’s most
vulnerable flying residents,
Jackie Stevenson is ready to
spread her own wings.

The 72-year-old from
Parklands says she’s on the
lookout for someone who shares
her love for birds to take her
place nursing them back to
health.
Mrs Stevenson gave up her
job as a nurse when she realised
birds were her true passion.
Since then, her home has been
transformed into a bird rescue
centre.
However, Mrs Stevenson
said the long days and sleepless

Teenage
taggers
caught
by police
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
POLICE HAVE caught six
youths they believe were involved
in a tagging spree throughout
Halswell.
They want people who have
had their properties or vehicles
tagged to call police in a bid to
gauge the extent of the vandalism
committed.
Police are dealing with six
youths aged between 13-15
involved with the vandalism that
occurred on January 28.
At least two cars and three
fences were vandalised, along with
a tool shed broken into at Aidanfield
where an axe was stolen and
found lodged into a lawn.
It is suspected further tagging
took place in the early hours of
Tuesday morning.
The vandalism took place in the
Aidanfield/Westlake/Halswell
area. Hornby police youth aid
worker Senior Constable Bruce
Ward said police are uncertain
about to the extent of the damage
done. But he said in the past police
have found people do not report
incidents of tagging when they
should be.

LOGAN DUNN might only be 15, but he’s
already making his mark on the bowling
green.
On page 14 today, we highlight the
youngster’s victory in the Canterbury
men’s first and second first year championship.
Logan comes from good bowls stock. His father Jason is a
handy player and those genes have also rubbed off onto Logan’s
16-year-old brother Jordan.
In the semi-final, Logan prevailed Jordan. No doubt those two
will continue to face each other in the years to come.
Logan was in the Halswell four which was runner up in the
open section. It also included his father and Darryl Hawker,
the current Canterbury coach, and part of the great Halswell
premier rugby league team during the 1980s.

Visiting teens likely troublemakers
• By Louis Day
VISITING teenagers may have
been the troublemakers at the
Sumner skate ramp over the
holidays.
Residents have posted on the
Sumner Community Facebook
group, angry at some of the
behaviour at the Nayland St
skate ramp.
One woman said she was
abused by a group of teenagers
believed to be about 14, before
they threatened to run the
woman and her three-year-old
son over
with their
skateboards.
Another
woman said
she had objects
thrown at
her car on a
few occasions
when driving
Franco Lovrich

Both women did not wish to
speak to Southern View.
Red Snapper fish ’n’ chip
shop owner Adam Jenkins was
convinced the teenagers causing
trouble were visitors.
“There was a bunch of riff-raff
out here that day, they came in
here and got lunch, not kids I
have seen before.”
ISSUES: Visiting teenagers are suspected to be behind the incidents at the Sumner skate
ramp.
Mr Jenkins said the teenagers
were smoking, drinking and
fighting among themselves
throughout the day.
There have also been issues
with skateboarders causing
problems and littering at the
Sumner Centre, across the road
from the ramp. One group had
been told to leave the centre.
Sergeant Franco Lovrich said
police were not aware of the
incidents.
“The issue with Facebook is
that we don’t monitor social
media sites, it is imperative
people report directly to us.
That way we can get an accurate
judgement of offences as they
occur and from there we can
prioritise resources.”

Why Riccarton Rd is being upgraded
The city council answers
some of the most common
questions about why it is
upgrading Riccarton Rd
Major roadworks to begin this
month will involve upgrading
damaged underground pipes
and rebuilding the road to
accommodate bus priority
measures. The nearly two-year
project is not expected to be
completed until December 2020.
Why does this work have to
be done now?
The sewer pipes that run underneath
Riccarton Rd are nearly
100 years old. They have reached
the end of their lifespan and
need replacing. If the city council
delays replacing them, there is a
risk they could fail, resulting in
major disruption and roadworks.
The road surface is also in poor
condition, with damage evident
in many areas. At the same time
as resurfacing, bus priority will
be added measures so that buses
can travel more easily along Riccarton
Rd, which will cut travel
times along this busy route.
Why is it going to take almost
two years?
If the city council is only
resurfacing the road it could
complete the upgrade in a much
shorter time frame. It is because
• By Louis Day
TENDERS WILL are being
called to repair the earthquakedamaged
Scarborough Clock
Tower.
The city council wants to
appoint one contractor to
undertake the repairs of the
Scarborough and New Brighton
clock towers.
City council head of parks
Andrew Rutledge was confident
its repair strategy would save
ratepayers’ money by having one
contractor handle both towers.
“We believe the cost for
keeping the scaffold up is minor,
considering the cost efficiencies

it needs to also replace the water
and sewer pipes that run beneath
the road that this project is likely
to take until December 2020 to
complete.
What’s the most time-consuming
aspect of the work?
The sewer pipe is located 4m
below the road so a very deep
trench has to be dug. The trench
sides need to be supported so it is
a time-consuming process. Work
in packaging both projects
together. The tenderers also
require the scaffold to be up to
fully inspect the structure and
damage so that they can price
their tender.” Repairs are yet to
start in spite of the scaffolding
being in place since February
last year. The scaffolding is also
costing ratepayers $1500 per
month.
Once a contractor has been
secured, repairs are expected to
take six months to complete.
Sumner resident of 40 years
Sam Bradley was frustrated by
the lack of progress that has been
made on the tower.
“I’m the manager for a building
on the trench can only proceed
about 1m a day. Contractors are
starting at three different work
sites to speed up the process.
Can’t you speed-up the
work by working at night and
weekends?
Contractors will be working
nights and weekends when
required, but during the sewer
pipework, it is dangerous to work
at night because good lighting

company and if we ran our
company like that we wouldn’t
have one to run anymore.”
Mr Bradley was also
disappointed to see the

to deface the clock tower.

is needed. There are also motels
and a rest home along the route
and night work would be very
disruptive for them so it is a case
of balancing the needs of the
whole community.
Why are you putting a treelined
median strip down the
middle?
In 2015, the city council asked
the community for views on two
upgrade options – one with a
tree-lined median and one without.
The option with trees along
a central median was preferred.
This option was subsequently
recommended by the Halswell-
Hornby-Riccarton Community
Board to the city council’s
infrastructure, transport and
environment committee, which
approved the scheme in August
2015. The tree-lined median
uses space made available by the
removal of car parks. There is
still one lane of traffic in each direction,
as there is now. The treelined
median should help to slow
traffic speeds and make the area
safer for pedestrians, cyclists and
drivers. The trees, along with
other streetscape enhancements,
such as new furniture, paving
and landscaping, will also make
this part of central Riccarton
more attractive and a destination
rather than solely a transport
corridor.
Do other parts of Riccarton
Rd need upgrading?
The stretch of Riccarton
Rd between Deans Ave and
Harakeke St has already been
upgraded. No other work of
this scale is planned but some
improvements to intersections
and other facilities, such as for
cycling, are scheduled to occur
over the next 10 years.

Removal
of trees
upsets
campers
• By Louis Day
ABOUT 200 trees have
been removed at Okains Bay
camping ground.
The city council removed
trees from the area as part of
their Reserve Landscape Plan
last June.
Additional trees on the
western side of the camping
ground also had to be removed
due to damage caused by salt
water inundation in last year’s
king tides.
But the felling of the pine,
gum and macrocarpa trees
has left some campers
“heartbroken”.
One camper who had been
going to the camping ground
for more than 40 years said they
were “heartbroken” when they
returned to the area over the
holidays.
“It’s taken away a lot of
natural shelter, it looks terrible,
they have left a lot of the trees
just lying around. They have left
some of the stumps of up to 1m
just sticking out of the ground
in some places.”
The camper said the removal
of the trees had left campers
exposed to the sun and wind.
“Trees that have been killed
by the seawater in high tide
haven’t been removed, yet all of
these other ones have.”
Head of recreation, sports
and events Nigel Cox said
they were working to replace
some of the trees which had
been felled.
“A community planting
day was held in September. A
large number of native trees
were planted into newlyestablished
raised gardens.
More planting in line with the
Reserve Landscape Plan will be
completed this coming year.”

Mrs Stevenson estimated she

year. All of her work had been
voluntary, with some financial
support coming from donations.
Mrs Stevenson received $100
in petrol vouchers a year from
the Department of Conservation,
and dog and cat biscuits to mash
up and feed to the birds from the
SPCA and Dogwatch.
She said cats were the main
cause of injuries to birds. But
•From page 1
“Half a dozen kids can tag a
lot of places so we want to be on
top of this really quickly,” Senior
Constable Ward said.
Several youths had gone to
a house in Halswell
on Sunday night and
unbeknownst to the
parent they snuck out
in the night, picked up
more youths, consumed
alcohol and spraypainted
properties, he
said. The tagging was
brought to the police’s
attention by one of the
parents who had seen one of the
boys covered in spray paint.
“The parents are horrified,”
Senior Constable Ward said.

a note left on the doorstep
of several dog owners in
Lyttelton threatening to call
dog control
Kaye Le Fleur – What’s
wrong with that note? I have had
a few dogs and if I received a note
like that I would
take responsibility
and make sure my
dog was not left
alone and getting
bored, I would
make sure the dog
would not be able to
wander, and be very
happy that someone
had taken the time
to notify me before notifying the
authorities. Nothing worse than
repeated barking dogs, dog poo
and wandering dogs. Just be a
responsible owner, simple.
Philip Baker – If the dog is
out roaming then fair enough.
Jade Mulcahy – Brilliant
idea. Most dog owners think
their dog is lovely and think
everyone else does too – wrong.
Good thing to do to avoid
unnecessary confrontation, at
least they didn’t just ring dog
control first.

Freedom campers at reserve frustrate residents
• By Louis Day
Cassey Millward – I
understand the roaming, as
that is a safety issue and no way
should dogs be taking themselves
on little adventures. But most
dogs bark a few times throughout
the day. I have two dogs and
they bark at each other when
they are playing or if someone
arrives. I have neighbours either
side who also have
dogs that bark. None
persistently, but a few
times throughout
the day you will
hear barking for
short periods of
time. People mow
lawns and cut hedges
through the day. You
can’t expect silence
throughout the day, it’s totally
unreasonable. I am very grateful
for the neighbours I have, as
some people sound like a total
nightmare.
Cathryn Rose Creamer –
Fair enough if a dog is roaming,
but someone trying to nap in
the afternoon and dogs barking
– get ear plugs. Don’t want to
live near dogs? Then move into
the country where your closest
neighbours are 500m away.
James Boswell – All of
the things in the letter apply to
almost every cat owner I know
too. I’m not condoning the
behaviour of the owner of this
DIAMOND Harbour residents
are calling for tighter freedom
camping restrictions at Stoddart
Point Reserve.
Residents have been frustrated
by freedom campers throwing
their rubbish on the ground only
a few metres away from empty
bins.
Congestion at the reserve means
it is also difficult to find a car park
in the morning before commuters
catch the ferry to work. Freedom
campers are currently restricted
to staying for up to two nights in
any 30-day period in certified selfcontained
vehicles.
However, Diamond Harbour
Community Association
chairman Richard Suggate said
the current restrictions were not
enough.
“That area is not big enough to
cope with those sort of numbers.
A few years ago it wasn’t a
problem but now the numbers
are too high.”
Diamond Harbour resident
Cheryl Glen said she had grown
more and more frustrated after
continuing to see rubbish left on
the reserve by freedom campers.
“There were times where the
bins would be empty and there

cat owners allowed to let their

and risk attacking pet birds,

cats and defecating on other
people’s properties?
Tina Harding – Pretty
simple, be aware of your dogs –
not every one is approachable.
Sian Vermeer – No one
would still be rubbish left on the
ground.”
Ms Glen said the number of
freedom campers at the reserve
often made it impossible for her
to find a park before catching the
ferry to work.
“Most mornings I can’t find a
park, where are we meant to park
to go to catch the ferry and go to
work?”
City council head of strategic

unlikely to make any changes

Photography exhibition
showcases the
‘many faces’ of Linwood
• By Matt Slaughter
ALASDAIR WRIGHT is
combining his 55-year love affair
with cameras and photography
with his love for the area he
lives in.
The Linwood
resident is one of 12
photographers with
work on display at an
exhibition focusing on
the community and its
diversity.
The Many Faces of the
Inner City East/Linwood
exhibition was set to
open yesterday at the
Linwood Community
Arts Centre and Eastside Gallery.
Wright, 59, said he has been
living in Linwood for seven years
and has seen it go through huge
changes since the earthquakes.
He said the aim of his
photographs is to document
what Linwood was like before the
changes occurred and the past is
forgotten.
“It’s important to record things
because when you think I’ll
take that photo now and don’t
have a camera and go back a few
days or years later, the case may
Alasdair Wright
be that they’re gone.” Wright
said Linwood’s population
and landscape has changed.
He said showcasing this in the
photographs was key.
“It’s important to see the
changing face of Linwood because
we’ve got a wide gamut of
society around here.”
“You can travel the
world without even
having to leave home.”
Linwood Community
Arts Centre and Eastside
Gallery exhibition coordinator
Shirley Scarlett
said the display was
about Linwood residents
like Wright “defining
the neighbourhood on their own
terms.”
Ms Scarlett said the exhibition
was also about breaking down the
stereotypes that could sometimes
have a negative effect on how
others viewed Linwood.
“The exhibition focuses on
celebrating and delving deeper
into a community that doesn’t
always get the best coverage.”
It was about “capturing the
good and the beautiful alongside
the challenges and concerns” of
the community, she said

THE SEASIDE Toy Library
hopes an open day will make it
a haven for toy lovers and their
families.
The library, which operates
out of St Luke’s Church in South
New Brighton, will host the
event on March 9 from 9.30amnoon.
It aims to promote the library
to people in the area and attract
new members.
Seaside Toy Library chairman
Andy Dimond said it was one
of many businesses in the east
that had a hard time after the
earthquakes.
“The library did struggle
financially and struggled with
attracting membership and
volunteers.”
Since then, Mr Dimond said
the toy library had employed a
part-time librarian and this had
helped it gain some stability.
However, he said word needed
to get out if the library should be
used to its full potential.
“There are a lot of young
families in the area who don’t
know about the toy library,
how much it costs and when
we operate, so this is a good
opportunity to promote
the library and also build
relationships in the local area,”
he said.

Teen bowls his way to men’s title
• By Gordon Findlater
TEENAGER Logan Dunn has
shown he has a bright future in
bowls.
The 15-year-old Halswell
player defeated Jonathan
Truesdale, of Cust, 21-10 to win
the Bowls Canterbury men’s first
and second year centre title.
Logan comes from a talented
bowls family. In the semi-final,
he defeated his 16-year-old
brother, Jordan, 21-12.
“He usually beats me when
we’re practicing but I got on top
of him that day,” said Logan.
He also teamed up with
his father, Jason Dunn, in
the Halswell fours team and
made the final before losing to
Rangiora 4-20.
“As soon as we step on the
green, he’s just another player.
He accepts that and he wouldn’t
want it any other way either,”
said Jason.
Logan completed a trio of
final appearances by making
his way to the under-20 singles
final which was taken out by
Rangiora’s Rebecca Jelfs 21-19 in
a tight match.
The Bowls Canterbury centre
championships began with
round-robin play in November
before the finals weekend at
Parklands from January 26-27.
Although the family represent
Halswell, they travel to the club
for inter-club each Saturday from
their home in Hawarden.
FAMILY TIES: As well as winning the Bowls Canterbury first and second year centre title,
Logan Dunn (right) finished second in the men’s fours with Darryl Hawker (left), his father Jason
Dunn and Paul Matheson.
“That’s just given the kids
the best opportunity to fulfil
what they want to in the game.
There’s not enough up here in
our area. Now they’ve got good,
hard competitive bowlers to go
against and get their game to the
next level,” said Jason, who is a
well know greyhound trainer. He
grew up in Sydney and pursued
bowls into his mid-20s. He
played representative bowls for
New South Wales but gave the
sport away when he moved to
Christchurch in 2007.
Logan didn’t know about
bowls until being introduced to
it by his father when he took him
to the green two years ago.
“It just clicked and I’ve liked
it from day dot,” said Logan. “I
played rugby for a year but I’m
too small for that.”
Canterbury men’s coach
Darryl Hawker – who played in a
Halswell fours team with Logan
– believes the 15-year-old could
SPORTS
go a long way in bowls.
“I think he could have a
big future in the game, his
commitment to improving as
a bowler is impressive,” said
Hawker.
Practicing three to four times
a week, Logan dreams of playing
the sport professionally one day.
“I want to be world champion,”
he said.
If his progression in the sport
continues, the Sydney-born
bowler could find himself
having to make a choice between
representing New Zealand or
Australia one day.
The family’s current rugby
allegiances are split, with the
boys backing the Wallabies and
the girls cheering on the All
Blacks.
As for Logan’s future bowling
allegiances: “It all depends who
gives me the offer,” he said.
Other Halswell players to
make finals were Phil Austin,
who was defeated by Elmwood
Park’s Bruce Humphreys 15-21
in the men’s under-eight singles
final, while Rex Carpinter, John
Connolly and John Topham were
also beaten finalists in the over
60s triples. The title was won by
Elmwood Park 18-4.

Centuries old folk remedy supports
good health!
A fermented liquid health
tonic offers an array of
powerful health benefits. It is
none other than the popular
apple cider vinegar or ACV.
Since the time of Hippocrates – the “Father
of Medicine” – ACV has been renowned for its
curative properties.
In his popular book “ARTHRITIS & FOLK
MEDICINE”, DR. D.C. Jarvis reports how he
found that Vermonters who regularly consumed
ACV and Honey had excellent health with
many putting in a vigorous day’s work on the
farm even when well into their eighties. He also
noted the effects of ACV and H on arthritis to be
remarkable with many patients reporting almost
total relief after taking a course of the
mixture. Dr. Jarvis surmised that
the acid and potassium in cider
vinegar counteracted calcium
deposits and helped the body
control calcium use. He also noted
that Vermonters who consumed
ACV and H around meal time
had excellent blood pressure and
circulation. The reason he found
was that protein foods thickened
the blood and vinegar thinned it.
As the blood thickens it cannot
pass as easily and quickly through
the blood vessels and capillaries. This
poor blood flow would reduce cellular
health by limiting nutrients to the cells
as well as waste elimination from the cells.
To prevent cell damage the body naturally
increases blood pressure but this puts more stress
on the blood vessels, organs and heart. Having
ACV and H with meals will help prevent protein
raising the blood pressure. It also contributes
to a feeling of greater well-being because the
thinner blood circulates quickly and more easily
through the blood vessels. Dr. Jarvis found regular
consumption of CV and H to be an excellent
health tonic with numerous Health attributes.
ACV is highly nutritious as it contains all the
goodness of the apple in a form that is readily
accepted by the bodyGood health starts with good
digestion and assimilation of nutrients. ACV taken
before food will stimulate and promote healthy
digestion and assimilation of vital nutrients for
good health. A well-functioning digestive system
helps prevent disease by neutralising any toxic
substances that enter the body.
It is important to note not all ACV is produced
in the traditional way and results are likely to
prove disappointing with these other vinegars.
Marshall’s Premium ACV & ACV with 20%
Manuka Honey is produced in Canterbury from
Organic whole apples in the traditional way. It is
double strength so you can use less.

Device to prevent
snoring
Why put up with broken sleep, when
help is at hand with Snorex, an appliance
that prevents snoring, sleep apnoea, and
dry and raw throats.
Snorex is custom-fitted to your mouth
for comfort, and a follow up service is
provided.
Denise Lim has been involved with
Snores for 22 years and has had a 98%
success rate with
people using the
appliance. Snoring
can be a health
hazard, causing
sleep apnoea, where
the person actually
stops breathing for
short periods.
It can cause
short-term memory
loss, tiredness and
contribute to high
blood pressure.
The Snorex
device does not feel
restrictive, is noninvasive
and carries
a money-back
guarantee.
Many people are referred by ear, nose
and throat specialists, however, anyone can
phone for an appointment.
For an information pack or to discuss
the Snorex further, phone Denise Lim on

beauty and wellness. The body’s natural
collagen production decreases with
age resulting in many signs of aging,
such as flaccid skin, wrinkles, ligament
and tendon injuries and aching joints.
Collagen supplementation is one of
the most fundamental things a person
can do to prevent premature aging and
promote youthful vitality.
NEOCELL are the industry leaders
in research on collagen supplementation.
Through advanced research they have
perfected a way to hydrolyse collagen and
effectively reduce its molecular weight this
improving the absorption of collagen into
the blood stream by over 90%.
A clinical study on NEOCELL
COLLAGEN has shown skin hydration to
increase an average of 21% and up to 50%,
with 92% of test subjects experiencing
firmer, softer skin. Most people taking
NEOCELL COLLAGEN reported seeing
visible improvements within two weeks.
Collagen supplementation provides
the nutrients necessary to support the
body’s collagen supply. It can help reduce
fine lines and wrinkles and improve skin
elasticity, support building of strong bones
and teeth, strengthen the nails and hair,
and is vital for muscle growth, It also
assists weight loss by helping burn fat
for energy, promotes wound healing by
supporting the regeneration of healthy
tissue as well as help support overall
health.
NEOCELL COLLAGEN and further
information is available from the
Natural Health Advisers at Marshall’s

Road, New Brighton, Phone: 388-5757.
