From Ilam to
touring with a
Broadway star
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
WHEN SARAH Greenwood-
Buchanan retired from a long career
in hairdressing, she never expected
to land a job working for one of
Broadway’s biggest stars.
But in 2012 English singer Elaine
Paige was on the hunt for a personal
dresser during her tour of New
Zealand, Australia and Asia.
Greenwood-Buchanan, who works
on hair and make-up at The Court
Theatre and lives in Ilam, landed the
job.
Earlier this month, she started
travelling and working with Paige
again on her tour of Australasia
which finished last week.

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.

Businesses bid for direct access
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
BUSINESSES HAVE banded
together in a bid to get back
direct access to their shopping
area on Main South Rd.
A petition with almost 150
signatures has been collected by
businesses calling for a rightturning
bay along Main South
Rd, opposite Harvard Ave.
They are concerned patronage
could be declining as customers
travelling towards Hornby are
unable to directly access their
businesses.
The issue was raised
in October when the
Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton
Community Board approved a
recommendation to ban vehicles
from turning right off Main
South Rd or make U-turns at the
Harvard Ave intersection.
Board chairman Mike Mora
said at the time a turning bay
could be put in and a report on
the issue is expected back in
April.
“The board has always been
supportive of a turning bay,” he
said.
However, city council staff
have not started an investigation
into the situation.
Vehicles which want to access
businesses opposite Harvard Ave
have to perform a U-turn about
1km further along Main South
Rd. The petition was presented
to the board by RA Shearings
Contractors director Bob
Shearing and DA Lewis director
Mark Lewis.
Mr Shearing, a former city
councillor, said his business has
been there for more than 40
years and there has never been a
problem with the road.
He said there are about 20
businesses in the shopping block
with about 200-300 employees.
“We certainly don’t believe it
was ever dangerous or is . . . they
need to make the corner safe to
do U-turns and the only way to
do that now is to put a turning
bay into it which is easy to do.”
City council transport
operations manager
Steffan Thomas said there have
been 12 crashes reported in the
past five years – one serious
injury and three minor injury
crashes.
Mr Shearing said if people
can’t turn there, they will go to
another business.
CALL FOR CHANGE:
Business owners Bob
Shearing and Mark
Lewis have collected
a petition with nearly
150 signatures to have
a turning bay installed
on Main South Rd
opposite Harvard Ave.
He is being supported by Mr
Lewis and Chipmunks Playland
& Cafe Wigram business partner
Dell Lu. Mr Lu said he believes
he has lost customers due to the
access issue.
The city council originally
installed the signs because there
was no turning bay.
Mr Thomas said right and
U-turning traffic obstructs the
traffic flow along Main South
Rd and the city council needs to
deal with the safety issue before
a turning bay can be put in.

Has your property been tagged?
•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.
Residents on Wigram Rd, near
Westlake Park were one of the
unfortunate targets on a Monday
morning.
A resident, who did not wish
Bruce Ward
to be named, woke up at about
1.15am to a light being shone in
her window before finding
two vehicles had been badly
tagged. Senior Constable Ward
said either the youths or their
parents may have to
pay for reparation or
community service
and they will have their
photos and
fingerprints taken
for further use. “If it
runs into thousands of
dollars we might have
to think where we take
these youths. They may
have to go to the youth court.”
If your property or vehicle was
vandalised between January 28
and 29 call police on 363 7435.

UNFORTUNATE: The damage sustained from six youths who went on a tagging spree
throughout Halswell.
Life on the road with a
musical theatre legend
DREAM JOB: Sarah Greenwood-Buchanan has been working
as a personal hairdresser, tour companion and assistant for
Broadway star Elaine Paige.
•From page 1
Well known for her work in
musical theatre, Paige’s career
came into the spotlight when
she played Eva Peron in Andrew
Lloyd Webber’s production of
Evita in 1978.
Greenwood-Buchanan said she
was “very privileged” to be asked
back to work as Paige’s personal
hairdresser, tour companion and
personal assistant.
“I think she likes me because
we like a lot of the same things
. . . the fact I can help her with
her hair and make-up is a bit of a
treat for her because she usually
always does it herself. We just get
on really well,” she said.
While Greenwood-
Buchanan was in charge
of setting up Paige’s dressing
room, she said Paige preferred to
get ready and decide what to wear
by herself.
She described Paige as a “classy
lady” who knows how to make
herself look a “million dollars.”
“She is absolutely lovely. She
is very down to earth, she has a
fantastic sense of humour. We
have a lot of laughs,” Greenwood-
Buchanan said.
She said it was a “career
highlight” to work with Paige.
“I remember listening to her
songs in the 80s . . . I was in awe
of her voice, her presence and
persona.”
Touring with Paige in 2012
“kicked off a massive career”
for Greenwood-Buchanan who
“didn’t really know” what she
was going to do after 29 years as
a hairdresser. She has since been
involved in sourcing and styling
wigs, hairdressing, make-up and
managing wardrobes backstage
for shows.
Following her first tour with
Paige, Greenwood-Buchanan
was contacted by one of The
Court Theatre’s leading directors
to work on wigs and hair
backstage.
“I haven’t looked back really. I
have been contracted to do this
work ever since . . . it is a whole
new career,” she said.
Greenwood-Buchanan has also
led an exciting career on stage,
playing the lead role of Velma
Kelly in Showbiz Christchurch’s
production of Chicago in 2008.
She is also a co-director
and co-performer in vocal
trio The Starlets, and hopes to
perform more for the public this
year.

Historic hall could be a heritage site
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
YALDHURST’S historic war
memorial hall could be a heritage
site.
A site visit made by the city
council’s heritage team recently
has found the hall contains heritage
values which means it could
be protected under the District
Plan. If the hall was scheduled
under the District Plan as a heritage
building, a resource consent
would be needed to enable the
demolition, head of community
support, governance and partnerships
John Filsell.
The site visit also identified the
hall is physically intact and has
not changed since 1954 when it
was built. But Mr Filsell said a
research and evidence gathering
phase is needed to provide a full
picture.
Yaldhurst Memorial Hall
Committee member Michelle
Clark said it “absolutely” believes
the hall has historical significance
not only for the city but a
memorial point of view.
She said it would be positive if
the hall was a heritage building
under the district plan.
Discussions of the demolition
of the hall have been ongoing
since 2015. The hall may also be
thrown a lifeline with the possibility
of it being offered back to
the community for restoration.
A report exploring options
on the future of hall will be presented
to the community board
between April and June by city
council staff. But Mr Filsell said
it is too early establish what the
options are as not all information
is available.
City council staff recommended
demolishing the hall on
Pound Rd.
Yaldhurst Rural Residents’
Association chairwoman
Sara Harnett-Kikstra said
the community is hoping the
money set aside for demolishing
the building could go towards
restoring it.
HOPE: The Yaldhurst Memorial Hall could be a heritage site.

Students nuts and bolts about robots
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
BURNSIDE HIGH School
students with a flair for
electronics will take their own
robot to a national competition.
Aditi Sharma, Alisha Sangwan
and Aarya Advilkar have spent
hours joining wheels, axles,
motors and gears to create their
own robotic machine.
But the hard work has paid
off, with the students travelling
to the Vex Robotics National
Competition in Auckland later
this month.
The competition requires
students to build and
programme a robot, which
will then undertake a series of
challenges.
The students have designed
their robot to launch balls
through a catapult design, go up
onto platforms and flip flags.
It is controlled by a remote
controller.
Aditi, 15, said it is an
opportunity for them as they can
meet other people who share the
same interests.
They have been working on
building the robot since January
last year and have spent time in
their school holidays working on
the project.
BUILDERS: Burnside High School students Alisha Sangwan, Aditi Sharma and Aarya Advilkar will
be taking their robot to the Vex Robotics National Competition
Alisha, 13, said the students
are hoping to earn a good
placing in the competition.
“Top 50 would be good, but the
least would be getting experience
and new ideas of what other
people think,” she said.
All three students share an
interest in electronics and how
robotics could impact society in
the future.
Alisha said while she doesn’t
think “robots are going to take
over the world” learning about
them is helpful if you want
to go into different types of
technology.
She said the programming
for the robot has similarities to
science, technology, engineering
and mathematics.
Aarya, 14, said she “likes
robotics so much” and thinks
it will help her in the future as
she is considering becoming an
architect.
“I like to plan ideas for the
robots and how it can compete
in the game and how it can fulfil
the task within the game,” she
said.
Aditi said she is taking three
technology subjects this year and
is interested in pursuing a career
in engineering.
“I think robots would be a
good part of society, they can
help in so many ways. They can
do things humans can’t,” she
said.
About 80 teams from around
New Zealand are taking part in
the event which aims to increase
the awareness of robotics in
school communities.

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
TURMOIL: The city council has answered some of the most common questions on why
Riccarton Rd needs to be upgraded.
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
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
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.

Western News’ article on
extending the opening
hours at the Te Hāpua:
Halswell Summer Pool
WESTERN NEWS
this and you just might find they
pull their own behaviour into
line as a car community. Not a
just a few boy racers making the
rest look bad.
Madeline Howe – I think
the pool hours really need to
be extended. I have lived in
Halswell for four years and I
am a ratepayer and have never
used the pool because of the
volume of people there in peak
times which by the look of it is
all the time bus loads of kids
from schools that aren’t from
Halswell or nowhere near. As the
generations get older, to be blunt
they don’t want to be sharing a
pool with kids diving onto them
from every angle. I would love
to go swimming on a hot day at
8am onwards but not when every
man and his dog is there. Considering
being told to keep your
body moving as you get older,
it’s all the younger generation
getting catered for. I brought this
point up about three years ago
when I gave up work but sadly
the pool wasn’t opened until
3pm when the school went back.
Very disappointed with lack of
feedback or support. What are
rates for? Get active and keep
moving it would help if I could
in the pool that was meant for
everyone.
Gary Knight – As a community-based
facility, the Te Hapua:
Halswell Centre community
pool is a true asset to Halswell.
To utilise it to fullest advantage
would deem the extension of the
present opening hours to be a
pro-active step, for the benefit of
not only Halswell residents but
many from other areas enjoying
this facility. In spite of patronage
levels fluctuating at this venue
over different time periods, rationale
must prevail from a city
council perspective and concede
the necessity of extended pool
hours to cater for the rapid
population growth of Halswell,
projected to be 34000 to 40000
by 2035.

CHANGE: A push has been made for the Te Hāpua Halswell Summer Pool hours to be extended.
Chris Huddlestone – You
move into an area where there
are racetracks which have
been there since 1963 and you
complain about the noise . . . go
figure.
Stacey Benton – It’s a no
win situation. People complain
about burnouts on the street
wanting them to go to a place
where they can do burnouts and
then complain they are doing
burnouts in a controlled environment.
What the hell . . . it’s a
racetrack what do people expect?
Matt Reid – Yaldhurst Rural
Residents’ Association is always
whinging. Noise, dust, flight
paths, quarries. And yet all winter
the rural residents are burning
huge amounts of rubbish.
Kyla Ellis – If they don’t like
the noise then why move into
an area or close to a racetrack.
Don’t like it, do your homework
and move somewhere else. The
race track was there before you
moved into the area.

happening once a year. It’s a controlled
environment. Pretty sure
they weren’t using it all hours of
the night. Seems selfish, let them
have it, it’s not like they are using
it every weekend.
Ricky Ireland – Weekend
from hell? It went from noon till
5.30pm on a Saturday afternoon.
Sorry Christchurch, we tried
though.
Karyn Molloy – I think you
will find that most of the drivers
at that burnout competition are
not the young ones that do burnout
out on public roads. Surely
once a year is not bad compared
to every weekend on the streets, I
hear a lot in my area every weekend
then see results on the roads
when I go out during the week.
People wanted a pad for them
and now complain when someone
uses it. Get over it people.
Tiffany Burke – If you live
so close to the track, chances are
you know when they are going to
have big events. So maybe make
plans, have a weekend away, or
buy earplugs. I live close to it,
heard the cars, but didn’t sound
anymore than usual.
Neil Ward – The speedway
been there for years and years.
People move into the area knowing
it’s there then complain
about the noise.
Robyn Jones – I don’t
understand all these people that
complain about the noise, yet
they chose to move into the area
or build a house when there was
an existing track. I can hear it
from my place it doesn’t faze me
in the slightest. It’s only a few
weekends every now and again
and I think the people that use
the track are entitled to some fun
if you don’t like the noise why
move there when the track has
been there long before the new
subdivision. Bunch of complainers.
CJ Hendry – Giving the
car culture a place to go that is
already to be used is one of the
best ideas the city council has
come up with yet. Create some
boundaries . . . like sober, fully
licenced drivers, cars with warrants
of fitness and registrations.
But most of all give them somewhere

Jimmy Harvey – That racetrack
was there long before you.
Don’t like it? Do your research
before you move there.
Ryan Trounce – Section 10
of the RMA should allow its use
to continue. I guess that residents
that are complaining are new to
the area, post-earthquake had
no choice to move into a new
subdivision. Not directly their
choice, but they are probably on
the approach for Christchurch
International Airport too and
complain about that.
Mary Ann Grace – We had
the weekend from hell What a
joke. Hell is starving to death in
a third world country, lady!
Simon Marshall – As the
owner of the safety crew who
was at this event I would like to
say that the noise of this event
was not over the 90db. I would
say the speedway this weekend
was louder than the burnouts.
Lyn Morris – Two complaints
out of hundreds of houses
around there.
Ben Ditmer – This was a
fantastic event. There was only
burnout noise from noon-3pm.
Don’t buy a house near a racetrack.
James FitzPatrick – There’s
no point using a skid pad at Ruapuna.
The track gets plenty of
noise complaints from legitimate
events and use as it is. Say they
open access to the skid pad for
said boy racers to use on Friday
and Saturday nights, they would
surely have to close it at a reasonable
hour, say 10pm. I’d doubt
everyone will just jump in their
cars and call it a night cause
the pads closed. A dedicated
site away from residential areas
would be best. Station a few
police during the nights it’s open
to keep people in line, inspect
any dodgy vehicles and breath
test drivers.

“The staff here are
lovely, giving really
good care.”
Nicky Anderson, the new
clinical manager at Ryman
Healthcare’s Woodcote
Retirement Village, likes the
warmth and friendliness and
easy access around the village,
where she is already drawing
out the best in people.
A registered nurse, Nicky
has an outgoing personality
and shines with enthusiasm
when she is working with
fellow staff members and
residents. She’s keen to build
on what is already a strong
team of happy, kind and highly
motivated staff.
She has spent much of her
working life in Canterbury as
well as bringing up a family
of four.
Her career has seen her work
in a wide variety of health care
jobs and Ryman has welcomed
her management skills and
vast experience in acute clinical
roles. These have included
district nursing, nursing at a
medical centre and previously
working at another Ryman
village – the Ngaio Marsh
Retirement Village.
Since her arrival at the village
she has settled back into the
Ryman way and loves the
friendly banter between staff.
She was appointed to the
role after Woodcote’s previous
clinical manager, Jacky
Fitzsimon, transferred to a
Ryman village in Melbourne.
She and Village Manager
Liz Hampton go back many
years, having trained
and worked together at
Christchurch Hospital.
Nicky likes the open spaces
in and around Woodcote with
its single level townhouses,
studio apartments and
resthome. The landscaped
gardens are gorgeous and there
are plenty of outdoor spaces
undercover as well as lounges
at the village where residents,
friends and family can gather.
The lovely facilities include a
dining room, lounges, library,
petanque court, indoor bowls
and hair salon.
There is also an activities
programme for residents who
can choose to join in with
things such as the Ryman
Triple A exercise programme
or events and outings.
“Quite a few of the
family members have been
introducing themselves to me.
Woodcote’s got quite a nice
feel to it. The residents have
got their photos up and like to
tell me about their families.”
Resident June Mounce says
it is great to have Nicky at
the village and she is doing a
good job.
Over the years she has
worked with young and old,
however, likes the fact that
she can chat away with a
resident while changing a
dressing or attending to their
regular medications.
Nicky Anderson (centre) with fellow workers Anu Gill (left) and Lisa Mazey (right).
“I love the tales they tell,
talking about things like life
experience. That’s when you
get to know them,” she says.
The support from Ryman
includes the introduction
of the exclusive myRyman
Care app.
The app is designed for
staff to have residents care
information at their ngertips
on a tablet. There is a tablet in
every care residents room and
allows staff to have more time
with the residents rather than
on paperwork. The electronic
care device is colour coded and
a particularly strong tool for
resthome care, she says.
She has had members
of her own family in care
facilities, so recognises the
ADVERTISEMENT
importance of the standard
of care and the impact of this to
every individual resident and
family member.
“Ryman is excellent. They
dot the i’s, cross the t’s and
provide great care.
“The staff here are lovely,
giving really good care and
they’re good to each other;
they’re a great team.”
Peace of mind
retirement
Residents enjoy a lovely and private room with
ensuite and the very best care from our staff.

Andrew Foster – They move
there because the housing is
cheap because of the racetrack
then complain hoping it will get
closed and their house prices
will rise.
Andrew Lawrence – Listening
to their whinging is more
damaging than the sound of
the burnouts. Just shut your
windows and turn the air conditioning
on. Then you won’t even
hear it.
Matto Croton – And you
wonder why people do it on the

Desexing pets is responsible
SPCA
southern
region
general
manager
Barry Helem
writes about
problems
the centre based in Hornby
faces when people don’t
desex their pets
In April last year, a little kitten
named April Penny arrived at
the SPCA Christchurch Centre.
The vets noticed an
abnormality in her chest, and
an X-ray showed her sternum
growing inwards towards her
vital organs.
She would have eventually
died from internal bleeding if
she didn’t receive urgent care.
A surgery like this hasn’t
always been possible at SPCA
due to limited resources, but
fortunately for April Penny, she
arrived at our centre just after
our SPCA hospital opened up.
It was a great feeling when she
received the surgery she needed
to live a happy and healthy life.
In 2018 we also began building
our new ringworm unit that will
open in March this year.
After years of fundraising,
we will finally have a facility to
properly manage the extremely
infectious disease, that affects
numerous cats and dogs each
year.
But even with new facilities,
our centre still struggles over the
summer period – kitten season.
This summer has been particularly
busy in Christchurch,
with hundreds of abandoned
and stray kittens like April
Penny needing our help – all
because people don’t desex their
pets.
WESTERN NEWS
When Ollie the kitten arrived
at SPCA, he had such bad cat
flu he needed surgery to remove
his eye, and Popeye the kitten’s
conjunctivitis was so severe, it
looked like he had already lost
his eye from the infection.
There are countless other cats
and kittens with similar stories.
Every year the SPCA’s main
goals are to educate New
Zealanders how to be responsible
pet owners, break the cycle of
cruelty, and hopefully see fewer
animals like April Penny, Ollie
and Popeye needing our help.
It’s not small feat trying to
achieve this change, and we
can only do it with help
from you – our Christchurch
community.

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 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

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
377 4318 or check out the website

Collagen
The Body’s Youth Protein
Collagen is the primary protein in the
body. It is a major component of skin,
hair, nails, muscles, tendons, ligaments,
joint cartilage, bones, gums, teeth, eyes,
and blood vessels.
In fact collagen is the primary
structural component for all tissue
in the body, providing the strength
and resilience associated with youth,
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.
