Work reflects artist’s life in New Brighton
• By Matt Slaughter
ARTIST JOSH O’Rourke has
lived in New Brighton all of his
life.
He loves the sea and its
untapped potential for creativity.
Now, the 30-year-old has left
his own indelible mark on a long
stretch of wall overlooking the
beachside basketball court just
south of the New Brighton Pier.
Low Pressure High Pressure
was finished in December and
represents the surf breaks and
weather patterns O’Rourke has
become so fond of in his many
years living in the area.
O’Rourke was educated at
New Brighton Catholic and
Shirley Boys’ High Schools and
has family in the area.

Bid to
save bus
service to
retirement
village fails
• By Matt Slaughter
A MAIREHAU retirement village’s
11-month battle with Environment
Canterbury to save their bus service
has been lost.
ECan has “run out of ideas” for a
compromise, which would satisfy
residents and staff at Diana Isaac
Retirement Village after their
Orbiter service was cut last month.
The Pegasus Post reported last
month ECan had raised the idea
of trialling a service to transport
retirement village residents to bus
stops and locations they can no
longer access. The vehicle would
have been run by a trust and
volunteers from the village.
Village resident Graham Tate had
supported the idea but said residents
had decided this would have
simply been too much work at their
stage in life.
“An email survey of about 20 per
cent of the independent residents
within this village made it clear
that there is very little support for
the proposed ECan Village Vehicle
Community Trust model. Personally,
I think the Village Community
Vehicle Trust concept could well
work in a village where residents
ages were younger than here.”

IT’S THAT time of the year again – the
countdown to the City2Surf.
This year’s instalment will be the 45th
time the iconic event has been held.
Thousands upon thousands of
Cantabrians have ran, walked,
skateboarded, pushed prams and hobbled to the line over the
decades.
On page 10 today, we talk to some of the people who will take
part this year.
The City2Surf is not a race – but many do consider it that, and
that’s fine. Being first across the line is a great incentive.
For others, taking on the City2Surf can be the start or end of
a personal goal from a fitness perspective or just to say I’ve done
it. With two distances, it’s an event for everyone.

Noise relief at Common Ground
• By Matt Slaughter
SOUTH NEW Brighton’s
Common Ground has become a
lot less noisy.
Six loud diesel generators were
replaced by a more sustainable
power connection box.
THe box was installed by Orion
and commissioned at a ceremony
last Thursday following concerns
from Common Ground about
the noise and fumes the
generators were creating.
Common Ground coordinator
Jane Harrison said she
wanted the space to be environmentally
and noise-friendly, but
the funds had not been available
to achieve this when it first
opened.
“We always wanted to have
electricity and we didn’t want
diesel-burning generators . . . the
cost was just going to be absolutely
prohibitive.”
Ms Harrison said Burwood
Ward city councillor Glenn Livingstone
had come together with
Orion, Safe Power and Nova
Energy to install the power box
for free.
She said this would now
ensure the surrounding environment
and residents’ ears were
looked after.
“We’ve worked really closely
with our neighbourhood and
with our immediate neighbours
SUSTAINABLE: A ceremony to commission a power connection box was attended by Common
Ground co-ordinator Jane Harrison, Orion general manager and stakeholder Paul Deavoll and
Burwood Ward city councillor Glenn Livingstone.
to make sure that everything we
do is going to just work really
positively for the community.”
The new power box will now
run the mobile food and coffee
vans, which operate on the site.
It has been a popular community
gathering space for residents
in the east since it was set up by
the Common Ground Collaborative.
Orion general manager
customer and stakeholder Paul
Deavoll said: “It’s great to be able
to support the South Brighton
community to create a more
sustainable hub for local people
to get together.”
City Care also donated its
time and machinery to level and
landscape the site when it was
first opened.
Burwood Ward city councillor
Glenn Livingstone said: “This
site has proven a real success for
the local community. It is great
to see the noisy generators go,
and landscaping making a real
community gathering place.
“Orion and City Care’s contributions
have made a big difference
for a community that’s been
through hard times.”

Backstage Passes
The untold story of New Zealand’s Live Music
Venues 1960-1990
By Joanna Mathers
New Zealand music was made on beer-stained stages, in
grimy toilets and smoky back rooms. Backstage Passes charts
the stories of the countries most celebrated live music venues.
Hookers, heroin, cocaine, killings, sex in alleyways, punch-ups
on dance floors – live music was the nexus around which a
cultural history happened.
Backstage Passes has the inside story on what it was like
to be part of a vibrant scene when New Zealand was a rural
backwater. First-hand accounts from muscicians, fans and bar
owners bring each chapter to life.
The beating heart of the book is the music and the spaces
within which the music was played. Rock, pop, reggae, punk
and hip-hop.
The Book of Knowing

By Gwendoline Smith
‘This book has given our daughter life’s most essential skill:
the ability to notice and manage her thoughts. This skill has
fundamentally changed her present and her future. We will
be forever grateful.’ Scarlett’s mum. Written in an accessible
and humorous style, this book teaches you to know what’s
going on in your mind and how to get your feelings under
control. It’ll help you adapt and feel better about your place
in the world. Psychologist Gwendoline Smith uses her broad
scientific knowledge and experience to explain in clear and
simple language what’s happening when you are feeling
overwhelmed, anxious and confused.
The Six Loves of Billy Binns
By richard Lumsden
THE SIX LOVES OF BILLY BINNS is a deeply moving debut
set in London against the backdrop of the changing 20th
century. it is reading group fiction perfect for those who loved
the quirky pathos of Gail Honeyman’s ELEANOR OLIPHANT
IS COMPLETELY FINE and the warmth and humour of Rachel
Joyce’s THE PILGRIMAGE OF HAROLD FRY. At 117 years old,
Billy Binns is the oldest man in Europe and he knows his time
is almost up. But Billy has a final wish: he wants to remember
what love feels like one last time. As he looks back at the
relationships that have shaped his life - and the events that
shaped the century - he recalls a life full of hope, heartbreak
and, above all, love.
At The Wolf’s Table
By rosella Postorino
They called it the Wolfsschanze, the Wolf’s Lair. ‘Wolf’ was his
nickname. As hapless as Little Red Riding Hood, I had ended
up in his belly...
Germany, 1943: Twenty-six-year-old Rosa Sauer’s parents
are gone and her husband Gregor is far away, fighting on the
front lines. Impoverished and alone in war-torn Berlin, she
makes the fateful decision to seek refuge with her in-laws in the
countryside.
But one morning the SS arrive to inform her she has been
conscripted as one of Hitler’s food tasters. Twice a day, Rosa
and nine other women must go to his secret headquarters, the
Wolf ‘s Lair, to eat his meals before he does. After each meal,
the women must wait an hour to see if they will die.
Forced into this deadly game of roulette, the tasters divide into The Fanatics, loyal to Hitler, and
the women like Rosa who insist they aren’t Nazis, even as they risk their lives every day for his.
As secrets and resentments grow, one of Rosa’s SS guards becomes dangerously familiar. And
as the war escalates, it becomes increasingly clear that Rosa and everyone she knows are on
the wrong side of history.

Woolston village upgrade criticised
• By Matt Slaughter
CONTENTIOUS: Business owners are concerned a plan to upgrade the Woolston Village
Centre will result in the loss of 14 on-street car parks along Ferry Rd.
BUSINESSES AND a
community board member are
concerned after a proposal to
upgrade the Woolston Village
Centre was green-lighted.
The decision was made at a
Linwood-Central-Heathcote
Community Board meeting last
week and the project will now be
brought to city council for final
sign-off. The project to transform
the centre, which runs down
Ferry Rd, will result in the loss of
14 on-street car parks.
The original 2016 Woolston
Village Centre upgrade proposal,
which did not go ahead, would
have resulted in the removal of
48 on-street car parks.
In spite of the new plan reducing
this number, Woolston
Pharmacy owner Simon Payne
said business owners and shoppers
will still be worse off if these
parks are lost.
“It is definitely negative for our
customers. It will be negative for
the whole shopping area, really.”
“If you don’t have car parks
that are convenient, then people
are just going to drive on by.”
From a pharmacy’s point of view,
we get a lot of people who are
injured, immobile, or have low
mobility due to long-term health
conditions . . . it is very inconvenient
if they can’t park nearby
where they want to go.”
Mr Payne said a petition to keep
the car parks, started by the pharmacy
late last year, received more
than 1000 signatures in one week.
Around Again Cycles workshop
manager Josh Boot said
parking in the area was already
difficult and losing more parks
would make things even harder.
“That’s a pretty substantial loss,
I mean we already struggle for
car parking as it is.”
Woolston Bakery owner Min
Che was also worried about losing
business if the proposal went
ahead.
“We don’t want it to happen . . .
because we are going to lose customers
if there are no car parks
on the street.”
The project will also involve
the planting of trees and plants
around the village, and new footpaths
and street furniture.
Linwood-Central-Heathcote
Community Board member
Brenda Lowe-Johnson said she
has concerns about the kauri
trees which would be planted.
“Kauris are a North Island tree,
they don’t belong to the South
Island and they don’t grow here
very well. I’m not very happy
about that either because it’s a
waste of money having something
that’s not going to grow properly.”
The proposal will be presented
to city council on Thursday and
a decision is expected in the
next six weeks as to whether the
project will go ahead.
If it does, construction is
anticipated to start in January.

“I’m pretty passionate about

“For me, it represents development

“For the public . . . I hope that

with ECan’s regional public

“We’ve run out of ideas. We’ve
offered alternatives and we haven’t
been able to implement those
alternatives, so there’s really
not much to do.”
Mr Tate said he and other
residents were hugely upset
with ECan’s stance on this.
“Our feeling is that ECan
is unwilling to offer any

this is an unacceptable
position. It seems incredible that
probably the largest concentration

Mauhara had been part of the

was playing in the team until
last year when he was diagnosed

as a very handy winger in his
masters playing days.

lend a helping hand
On Wednesday 30th january a team from Mitre 10 MeGA Ferrymead ran a hands
on holiday programme with Youthtown at the te Waka Unua School.
The day started off with the banging of hammers and whirring of
drills as the kids began to put together six planter boxes which
will be left for the school. Working in groups and supervised by
the Mitre 10 Team, it wasn’t long before the boxes were built and
ready for painting. The children got stuck right in decorating them
with purple, green and yellow before breaking for a well earned
lunch. Once re-energised they were on to filling the planter boxes
with soil and some vege mix supplied by Tui, before planting some
edibles - lettuce, onion, broccoli to name a few. Overall it was a very
successful day!

Who is up for the
Thousands will turn out
for the 45th anniversary
of the City2Surf on
March 24. Reporter
Sophie Cornish spoke to
some of the people
who have entered the
fun run
Karen Young – This year’s
City2Surf will be the first ever
running event Mrs Young has
participated in. In June last year,
she joined the Energise Health
and Fitness
running club and
has been training
for the 6km
event through
a 12-week
programme. Mrs
Karen
Young
Young runs with
her club once a
week while trying
to fit in her own training. “I
think it will be achievable (the
6km),” she said.
Mark Winsley, 49 – Mr
Winsley has tackled the 14km
City2Surf event before, but this
year he will run the 6km. That’s
because his nine-year-old son,
Felix, will be running with him,
along with his partner, Janelle
Clark. The father and son have
been “hiking around the hills
and jogging
around the parks”
to prepare for the
event. Felix is not
a novice when it
comes to running

events, having
participated in the
Kids’ Mara’Fun
Winsley
race before, which is part of
the Christchurch Marathon. “I
took my neighbours son to do it
(City2Surf) a few years ago – he
was a bit older. Felix watched it
and said I’m going do that papa,”
said Mr Winsley. The pair have
been training two to three times
a week. Their training includes a
hike in the weekend and a couple
of runs accompanied by “kicking
the ball around and playing
cricket,” said Mr Winsley.
RIVALRY: Ezra, Anna and Josiah Beach. (Right) – Geoff
Sutton and Angela Penn.
Rebecca Barrell, 44
– In the past Ms Barrell has
completed the Buller Gorge Half
Marathon. Now she wants to get
back into running. Ms Barrell has
set herself the goal of completing
the 14km event
this year and has
been training
using the 10-week
programme offered
by City2Surf. “I
walk a lot up the
Rebecca
hills, but I wanted
to improve my
running again and
Barrell
I thought this was a good goal
. . . I’ve done 10km in the past,
years ago. I did the 6km last year
with the dog, so I thought this
was a good progression,” she said.
The registered nurse has been
running around Hagley Park for
her training.
Judith McInnes, 77 – Mrs
McInnes, who is retired, says her
participation in the 14km event
is “not a hardcore thing, just
for fun.” It will not be her first
time in the City2Surf, having
completed the event six or seven
times previously, both walking

challenge.” Mrs
McInnes goes
jogging twice a
week. She likes to
explore the Harry

of the Takahe
and Godley Head
tracks. “Often
in the past, I have walked with
friends. A friend of mine is
walking the 6km and then we
will have a coffee afterwards,” she
said.
Josiah Beach, 30, Anna
Beach, 30, and Ezra Beach,
16 – The trio will take on the
14km event this year. Husband
and wife, Josiah and Anna, have
completed the event a handful
of times previously, but it will be
Ezra’s first time doing the 14km.
“He’s just brought some new
running shoes especially for it,”
said his older brother Josiah, who
has run up Rapaki Track a couple
of times to prepare. “I think I’ll
really get started on my training
next month.” Mrs Beach ran her

first City2Surf in 2009, when
training for a half marathon and
“never looked back.”
Ed Hogbin, 23 – Mr Hogbin
describes himself as a “little bit
of a runner” but it will be his first
time doing the City2Surf. “A few
years back I did a half marathon
and thought I’d have another
crack at one this year.” He will
use the City2Surf 14km event as
a “halfway gauge” while training
to see how on-track he is for his
next half marathon. Hagley Park
is his ‘go-to’ spot for training two
or three times a week.
Angela Penn, 49,
and Geoff Sutton, 42 – The
brother and sister duo aren’t
letting the fact they are getting
older slow the down. The pair
are running the 6km event in the
City2Surf together. “I’m going to
be 50-years-old soon, I might as
well keep going while I am still
standing and don’t have many
injuries,” said Mrs Penn. Back
in October, the pair ran in the
Pegasus Fun Run 6km event and
hope to run the 10km event at the
Christchurch Marathon in June.
They are both driven by the hope
that one day they might have
grandchildren, who they would
like to be fit and healthy for. “It’s
more about getting out there and
enjoying it. I am really looking
forward to spending some time
with my brother, it’s good to hang
out,” Mrs Penn.
Roger Comber, 70 – Back
in his youth, Mr Comber took
part in two half-marathons in
Ashburton and Timaru. Now
retired from his job as an english
teacher, he said he has decided to
get back into running. He enjoys
running around the streets near
where he lives and often goes to
Les Mills gym to stay in shape. “I
like the City2Surf because it is an
easy distance and it’s a popular
run to take part in.”
James Ferguson, 32 – Mr
Ferguson will take on the 14km
event in the City2Surf. It will

Roger
be his first time
doing the event
and he admits
he’s a “first-time
runner,” opting to
keep fit through
rugby and other
sport. The event
will help him
Comber
prepare for more running later
in the year when he takes on
the Buller Gorge half marathon
and the Saint Clair Vineyard
half marathon in Blenheim.
He is enjoying his training –
somewhat.
“It’s a fair distance the 14km,
but I’ve got to get fit somehow.”
Before and after
work a couple of
times a week, Mr
Ferguson has been
challenging himself
to run distances

between 10km
and 14km. He will
accompanied by
a group of friends
who will also run in the event
next month.
Pauline De Wit, 66 – Mrs
De Wit isn’t keen to slow down
anytime soon. Previously, she
has run the 6km event in the
City2Surf but next month
she decided to “push the boat
out” and do the 14km run. “I

and I want to achieve something

training with her friend Jill,
who she has done the event with
before. The pair enjoy after-work
walks around the Burwood
Wetlands. “The Wetlands takes
approximately 40 minutes, plus
walks at the weekend along the

What’s ‘HOT’ at House of Travel Shirley
Welcome to 2019 and our first edition of
“What’s HOT” at House of Travel Shirley.
We hope you all had a wonderful 2018 and got the chance to
explore a part of our globe and take the opportunity to create
travel memories for yourself and your family.
2019 is shaping up to be a fantastic year for travel and we’d
love to take the chance to briefly introduce you to our team
and give you some helpful tips & tricks plus some ideas for
your next holiday…..
OUT TEAM:
Nicky de Clifford: Owner/Operator
Specialist areas: Europe/Family holidays/Central America/
South East Asia
Lisa Hutchison: Owner/Operator
Specialist areas: UK, Ireland & Scotland/Family holidays/
Cruising/Pacific Islands
Julia Dawson: International Consultant
Specialist areas: USA (all over!)/Mexico/Adventure travel
Claire Harré: International Consultant
Specialist areas: South Africa/Europe/Family holidays/
Pacific Islands
Alannah Batt: International Consultant
Specialist areas: USA (Disney expert!)/East Coast Canada/

Bella Hill: International Consultant
Specialist areas: Russia & Eastern Europe/Caribbean/Cruising
Jodie Daniell: International Consultant
Specialist areas: Pacific Islands/Youth tour travel (Contiki)/
Europe
Aimee Ford: International Consultant
Specialist areas: Thailand beaches/Australia/Bali
So, as you can see between us, “we’ve been there and done
that” which means we can team up the consultant best suited
to your travel needs. We work together and often you will
find other consultants sitting in to offer their first-hand advice
on destinations. We love to collaborate with our clients and
welcome your own research and collectively we can help
bring it all together. Booking your travel via one agent is highly
recommended. When booking via multiple channels, online, it
can get very confusing and if anything goes wrong it can be hard
to fix a problem and speak to a real person!
Here at HOT, we offer a 24/7 emergency phone line so you get
to speak to one of us directly and we will go out of our way to
solve any problems so you can carry on and enjoy your trip.
That personal experience and our direct contacts go a long
way when you need to get out of a pickle!
You may be thinking to yourself that we are more expensive
that booking online?
This is simply not true. In most circumstances we can get
the exact same price that you may have seen. We work with
many “low cost booking engines” such as Expedia and can
sometimes even provide a cheaper rate. Another very valid
point to note is that if you purchase travel via an overseas
website you may find that the Consumer Guarantees Act might
not apply and if anything goes wrong it can be difficult to
obtain any kind of rebate or refund. By booking with TAANZ
Bonded House of Travel we’re with you all the way and your
money is protected.
So, where to next you may ask?
Here are some of our HOT picks for 2019…
SOUTH PACIFIC: A HOT destination is Samoa for its fab
beaches, laid back atmosphere and some great family friendly
resorts. For something different and if you love to snorkel OR
dive then try Niue. Crystal clear waters and still a bit off the
beaten track.
ASIA: One HOT destination is Borneo where jungle meets
the beach. Get a chance to see Orangutans, Proboscis
monkeys, Sun bears, turtles and an abundance of bird life
within their natural or protected habitats. After this we
suggest some time over on the beautiful beaches near Kota
Kinabalu. A great place to take the family.
USA: Take time out in the Southern States. Visit vibrant
cities like New Orleans, Austin, Dallas and then maybe head
up the Music belt to Memphis and Nashville. A great area
Back row, L to R: Julia Dawson, Jodie Daniell, Aimee
Ford, Bella Hill Front row, L to R: Alannah Batt, Lisa
Hutchison, Nicky de Clifford, Claire Harre
to do a self-drive and perhaps combine with a cruise from
Galveston down into the Gulf of Mexico.
EUROPE: Places we just love in Europe are Croatia,
Portugal, and Russia. All are a little bit off the beaten track
to the main tourist hot spots. We recommend a small ship
cruise around the Adriatic to explore the Croatian islands.
Portugal has amazing old towns combined with stunning
beaches in the South. Russia continually surprises us with
great feedback about how friendly the people are and how
different it is from many other parts of Europe.
SOUTH AMERICA: An amazing place to visit is Ecuador. Here
you can visit an eco-lodge in the Amazon Jungle, take a cruise
out to the Galapagos Islands where you can wonder at the
wildlife & beauty of this area. Plus, a chance to spend time in
the old city of Quito and soak up the South American charm.
AUSTRALIA: Why not head to Tasmania – maybe
somewhere you’ve not considered before. Tasmania offers
amazing culture in the cities, beautiful scenery and some
impressive historical sights. We suggest a self-drive holiday to
make the most of it.
We look forward to welcoming you in store.

KIDSTUFF
Cathedral Grammar Pre-School
located within the heart of the city
Our play based learning
approach supports your child
as they begin their exciting
journey as a lifelong learner.
Play, laughter and learning are essential
ingredients for a successful Pre-School
education. The crucial early years need to
be nurtured, shaped and cherished as your
child takes their first steps in education.
Cathedral Grammar Pre-School proudly
teaches the children of tomorrow, today.
At Cathedral Grammar Pre-School your
whole family is welcomed into the wider
embrace of the Grammar community
including whole school fun and functions,
services and support as well as smooth
transition to the Junior School and links to
the Prep School.
In Cathedral Grammar’s purpose built
Pre-School, taught by qualified teachers,
your child will discover by curiosity,
investigation and exploration. Our low
child/teacher ratios, ensure your child’s
quality individual and group learning.
Research states that play may be the
single most important things that humans
do. “Our play based learning approach
supports your child as they begin their
exciting journey as a lifelong learner” says
Principal Scott Thelning.
Your child will develop essential
foundations in literacy and numeracy. He
or she will enjoy the benefits of specialised
facilities, subjects and staff including Art,
Physical Education, Yoga and Chapel.
When children feel good about
themselves and their abilities, they are able
to take flight and explore, discover, take
risks and play, laugh and learn effectively
and successfully. “Self-esteem is at the core
of this development process” Thelning
says.
Being an inner city Pre-School gives
you a wonderfully easy opportunity to
engage in your child’s learning if you are
working in the CBD. Every opportunity
is taken to utilise our central city location
to extend our ‘campus’ from the Botanic
Gardens to the Canterbury Museum,
The Christchurch Art Gallery Te Puna o
Waiwhetu to the Christchurch Transitional
Cathedral, from Tūranga (Christchurch
central library) to the emergency services.
Every day is an open day at Cathedral
Grammar Pre-School. Contact the
school office to arrange a personal tour

By now, landlords, property managers
and most tenants will be aware of the
changes to the Residential Tenancy Act
concerning home insulation, requiring all
rental properties to have adequate ceiling
and under floor insulation installed, where
practicable, by 30 June 2019.
However, many landlords and property
managers may not be aware they could be
liable for a $4,000 fine (per non-compliant
property), payable to the tenants, if their
investment properties do not meet the
standard in time. With an estimated 125,000
rental properties still requiring better
insulation, these owners and property
managers are being urged to take action now
to avoid the impending rush.
Local long-established insulation specialists
EnergySmart are a selected service
provider for the government’s EECA (Energy
Efficiency and Conservation Authority)
insulation programme, and currently offer
both landlords and homeowners great
savings to better insulate their properties.
The company offers free property
assessments with an insulation Compliance
Certificate for the property if the existing
insulation already complies. If insulation
is required, they provide a Compliance
Report and quote to complete the work.
Extended home energy assessments are
also available, covering heat pumps and LED
lights if required.
EnergySmart are one of the largest
manufacturers and installers of insulation
products in New Zealand and supply a
range of home solutions including their
own insulation brands Terra Lana wool and
PolyKing polyester, as well as supplying Pink
Batts fibreglass insulation. All carry a 50
year warranty.
Their installers are fully trained, clean
and tidy, and their work is audited both
internally as well as by the government, so
you are assured of the highest standard of
workmanship.
EnergySmart has easy payment options
including no deposit and 36 months
interest free, meaning you can insulate your
property from only $12 per week. Landlords
can insulate now, take advantage of current
discounts, and beat the rush.
While insulation in rental properties is now
a legal requirement for landlords, they will
also have the satisfaction of knowing their
tenants are living in a warmer healthier, more
energy-efficient home, and consequently
are more likely to stay.
To enquire about a free property
assessment and insulation options,
contact EnergySmart.
