Work reflects artist’s life in New Brighton<br />

• By Matt Slaughter<br />

ARTIST JOSH O’Rourke has<br />

lived in New Brighton all of his<br />

life.<br />

He loves the sea and its<br />

untapped potential for creativity.<br />

Now, the 30-year-old has left<br />

his own indelible mark on a long<br />

stretch of wall overlooking the<br />

beachside basketball court just<br />

south of the New Brighton Pier.<br />

Low Pressure High Pressure<br />

was finished in December and<br />

represents the surf breaks and<br />

weather patterns O’Rourke has<br />

become so fond of in his many<br />

years living in the area.<br />

O’Rourke was educated at<br />

New Brighton Catholic and<br />

Shirley Boys’ High Schools and<br />

has family in the area.<br />

Bid to<br />

save bus<br />

service to<br />

retirement<br />

village fails<br />

• By Matt Slaughter<br />

A MAIREHAU retirement village’s<br />

11-month battle with Environment<br />

Canterbury to save their bus service<br />

has been lost.<br />

ECan has “run out of ideas” for a<br />

compromise, which would satisfy<br />

residents and staff at Diana Isaac<br />

Retirement Village after their<br />

Orbiter service was cut last month.<br />

The <strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong> reported last<br />

month ECan had raised the idea<br />

of trialling a service to transport<br />

retirement village residents to bus<br />

stops and locations they can no<br />

longer access. The vehicle would<br />

have been run by a trust and<br />

volunteers from the village.<br />

Village resident Graham Tate had<br />

supported the idea but said residents<br />

had decided this would have<br />

simply been too much work at their<br />

stage in life.<br />

“An email survey of about 20 per<br />

cent of the independent residents<br />

within this village made it clear<br />

that there is very little support for<br />

the proposed ECan Village Vehicle<br />

Community Trust model. Personally,<br />

I think the Village Community<br />

Vehicle Trust concept could well<br />

work in a village where residents<br />

ages were younger than here.”<br />

IT’S THAT time of the year again – the<br />

countdown to the City2Surf.<br />

This year’s instalment will be the 45th<br />

time the iconic event has been held.<br />

Thousands upon thousands of<br />

Cantabrians have ran, walked,<br />

skateboarded, pushed prams and hobbled to the line over the<br />

decades.<br />

On page 10 today, we talk to some of the people who will take<br />

part this year.<br />

The City2Surf is not a race – but many do consider it that, and<br />

that’s fine. Being first across the line is a great incentive.<br />

For others, taking on the City2Surf can be the start or end of<br />

a personal goal from a fitness perspective or just to say I’ve done<br />

it. With two distances, it’s an event for everyone.<br />

Noise relief at Common Ground<br />

• By Matt Slaughter<br />

SOUTH NEW Brighton’s<br />

Common Ground has become a<br />

lot less noisy.<br />

Six loud diesel generators were<br />

replaced by a more sustainable<br />

power connection box.<br />

THe box was installed by Orion<br />

and commissioned at a ceremony<br />

last Thursday following concerns<br />

from Common Ground about<br />

the noise and fumes the<br />

generators were creating.<br />

Common Ground coordinator<br />

Jane Harrison said she<br />

wanted the space to be environmentally<br />

and noise-friendly, but<br />

the funds had not been available<br />

to achieve this when it first<br />

opened.<br />

“We always wanted to have<br />

electricity and we didn’t want<br />

diesel-burning generators . . . the<br />

cost was just going to be absolutely<br />

prohibitive.”<br />

Ms Harrison said Burwood<br />

Ward city councillor Glenn Livingstone<br />

had come together with<br />

Orion, Safe Power and Nova<br />

Energy to install the power box<br />

for free.<br />

She said this would now<br />

ensure the surrounding environment<br />

and residents’ ears were<br />

looked after.<br />

“We’ve worked really closely<br />

with our neighbourhood and<br />

with our immediate neighbours<br />

SUSTAINABLE: A ceremony to commission a power connection box was attended by Common<br />

Ground co-ordinator Jane Harrison, Orion general manager and stakeholder Paul Deavoll and<br />

Burwood Ward city councillor Glenn Livingstone.<br />

to make sure that everything we<br />

do is going to just work really<br />

positively for the community.”<br />

The new power box will now<br />

run the mobile food and coffee<br />

vans, which operate on the site. ​<br />

It has been a popular community<br />

gathering space for residents<br />

in the east since it was set up by<br />

the Common Ground Collaborative.<br />

Orion general manager<br />

customer and stakeholder Paul<br />

Deavoll said: “It’s great to be able<br />

to support the South Brighton<br />

community to create a more<br />

sustainable hub for local people<br />

to get together.”<br />

City Care also donated its<br />

time and machinery to level and<br />

landscape the site when it was<br />

first opened.<br />

Burwood Ward city councillor<br />

Glenn Livingstone said: “This<br />

site has proven a real success for<br />

the local community. It is great<br />

to see the noisy generators go,<br />

and landscaping making a real<br />

community gathering place.<br />

“Orion and City Care’s contributions<br />

have made a big difference<br />

for a community that’s been<br />

through hard times.”<br />

HOUSE BUS FIRE<br />

A house bus was destroyed by<br />

East Shirley Cricket Club<br />

has successfully applied to<br />

develop a junior cricket pitch<br />

in Burwood Park. The project<br />

was given the go-ahead at a<br />

Coastal-Burwood Community<br />

Board meeting last week.<br />

Currently, there are no junior<br />

facilities on the park meaning<br />

junior teams play and carry<br />

Backstage Passes<br />

The untold story of New Zealand’s Live Music<br />

Venues 1960-1990<br />

By Joanna Mathers<br />

New Zealand music was made on beer-stained stages, in<br />

grimy toilets and smoky back rooms. Backstage Passes charts<br />

the stories of the countries most celebrated live music venues.<br />

Hookers, heroin, cocaine, killings, sex in alleyways, punch-ups<br />

on dance floors – live music was the nexus around which a<br />

cultural history happened.<br />

Backstage Passes has the inside story on what it was like<br />

to be part of a vibrant scene when New Zealand was a rural<br />

backwater. First-hand accounts from muscicians, fans and bar<br />

owners bring each chapter to life.<br />

The beating heart of the book is the music and the spaces<br />

within which the music was played. Rock, pop, reggae, punk<br />

and hip-hop.<br />

The Book of Knowing<br />

Know How you Think, Change How you Feel<br />

By Gwendoline Smith<br />

‘This book has given our daughter life’s most essential skill:<br />

the ability to notice and manage her thoughts. This skill has<br />

fundamentally changed her present and her future. We will<br />

be forever grateful.’ Scarlett’s mum. Written in an accessible<br />

and humorous style, this book teaches you to know what’s<br />

going on in your mind and how to get your feelings under<br />

control. It’ll help you adapt and feel better about your place<br />

in the world. Psychologist Gwendoline Smith uses her broad<br />

scientific knowledge and experience to explain in clear and<br />

simple language what’s happening when you are feeling<br />

overwhelmed, anxious and confused.<br />

The Six Loves of Billy Binns<br />

By richard Lumsden<br />

THE SIX LOVES OF BILLY BINNS is a deeply moving debut<br />

set in London against the backdrop of the changing 20th<br />

century. it is reading group fiction perfect for those who loved<br />

the quirky pathos of Gail Honeyman’s ELEANOR OLIPHANT<br />

IS COMPLETELY FINE and the warmth and humour of Rachel<br />

Joyce’s THE PILGRIMAGE OF HAROLD FRY. At 117 years old,<br />

Billy Binns is the oldest man in Europe and he knows his time<br />

is almost up. But Billy has a final wish: he wants to remember<br />

what love feels like one last time. As he looks back at the<br />

relationships that have shaped his life - and the events that<br />

shaped the century - he recalls a life full of hope, heartbreak<br />

and, above all, love.<br />

At The Wolf’s Table<br />

By rosella <strong>Post</strong>orino<br />

They called it the Wolfsschanze, the Wolf’s Lair. ‘Wolf’ was his<br />

nickname. As hapless as Little Red Riding Hood, I had ended<br />

up in his belly...<br />

Germany, 1943: Twenty-six-year-old Rosa Sauer’s parents<br />

are gone and her husband Gregor is far away, fighting on the<br />

front lines. Impoverished and alone in war-torn Berlin, she<br />

makes the fateful decision to seek refuge with her in-laws in the<br />

countryside.<br />

But one morning the SS arrive to inform her she has been<br />

conscripted as one of Hitler’s food tasters. Twice a day, Rosa<br />

and nine other women must go to his secret headquarters, the<br />

Wolf ‘s Lair, to eat his meals before he does. After each meal,<br />

the women must wait an hour to see if they will die.<br />

Forced into this deadly game of roulette, the tasters divide into The Fanatics, loyal to Hitler, and<br />

the women like Rosa who insist they aren’t Nazis, even as they risk their lives every day for his.<br />

As secrets and resentments grow, one of Rosa’s SS guards becomes dangerously familiar. And<br />

as the war escalates, it becomes increasingly clear that Rosa and everyone she knows are on<br />

the wrong side of history.<br />

Woolston village upgrade criticised<br />

• By Matt Slaughter<br />

CONTENTIOUS: Business owners are concerned a plan to upgrade the Woolston Village<br />

Centre will result in the loss of 14 on-street car parks along Ferry Rd.<br />

BUSINESSES AND a<br />

community board member are<br />

concerned after a proposal to<br />

upgrade the Woolston Village<br />

Centre was green-lighted.<br />

The decision was made at a<br />

Linwood-Central-Heathcote<br />

Community Board meeting last<br />

week and the project will now be<br />

brought to city council for final<br />

sign-off. The project to transform<br />

the centre, which runs down<br />

Ferry Rd, will result in the loss of<br />

14 on-street car parks.<br />

The original 2016 Woolston<br />

Village Centre upgrade proposal,<br />

which did not go ahead, would<br />

have resulted in the removal of<br />

48 on-street car parks.<br />

In spite of the new plan reducing<br />

this number, Woolston<br />

Pharmacy owner Simon Payne<br />

said business owners and shoppers<br />

will still be worse off if these<br />

parks are lost.<br />

“It is definitely negative for our<br />

customers. It will be negative for<br />

the whole shopping area, really.”<br />

“If you don’t have car parks<br />

that are convenient, then people<br />

are just going to drive on by.”<br />

From a pharmacy’s point of view,<br />

we get a lot of people who are<br />

injured, immobile, or have low<br />

mobility due to long-term health<br />

conditions . . . it is very inconvenient<br />

if they can’t park nearby<br />

where they want to go.”<br />

Mr Payne said a petition to keep<br />

the car parks, started by the pharmacy<br />

late last year, received more<br />

than 1000 signatures in one week.<br />

Around Again Cycles workshop<br />

manager Josh Boot said<br />

parking in the area was already<br />

difficult and losing more parks<br />

would make things even harder.<br />

“That’s a pretty substantial loss,<br />

I mean we already struggle for<br />

car parking as it is.”<br />

Woolston Bakery owner Min<br />

Che was also worried about losing<br />

business if the proposal went<br />

ahead.<br />

“We don’t want it to happen . . .<br />

because we are going to lose customers<br />

if there are no car parks<br />

on the street.”<br />

The project will also involve<br />

the planting of trees and plants<br />

around the village, and new footpaths<br />

and street furniture.<br />

Linwood-Central-Heathcote<br />

Community Board member<br />

Brenda Lowe-Johnson said she<br />

has concerns about the kauri<br />

trees which would be planted.<br />

“Kauris are a North Island tree,<br />

they don’t belong to the South<br />

Island and they don’t grow here<br />

very well. I’m not very happy<br />

about that either because it’s a<br />

waste of money having something<br />

that’s not going to grow properly.”<br />

The proposal will be presented<br />

to city council on Thursday and<br />

a decision is expected in the<br />

next six weeks as to whether the<br />

project will go ahead.<br />

If it does, construction is<br />

anticipated to start in January.<br />

He was given the go-ahead<br />

to install his design after being<br />

named as one of the two winners<br />

of the SCAPE Public Art Trust’s<br />

Re:Activate New Brighton competition<br />

last year.<br />

His strong connection to New<br />

Brighton was his inspiration for<br />

entering the competition.<br />

“I’m pretty passionate about<br />

seeing New Brighton do well and<br />

doing things that are good for the<br />

community.<br />

“As a local artist, there are<br />

people in the community who<br />

know who I am, so I kind of felt<br />

a little bit of responsibility to<br />

put in an application and have it<br />

considered.”<br />

O’Rourke said completing<br />

the project had been important<br />

for both his growth as an artist<br />

and New Brighton’s growth in<br />

general.<br />

“For me, it represents development<br />

and growth in my practice.<br />

“For the public . . . I hope that<br />

they see that there’s been a bit of<br />

an investment in the area in public<br />

art and beautifying the space.”<br />

O’Rourke was a surfer and his<br />

experience with topographic<br />

weather maps to find out the size<br />

of waves and direction of wind<br />

had inspired the design.<br />

“I’d been toying with the idea<br />

of the patterns of the weather<br />

WINNER: O’Rourke and SCAPE Public Art Trust education<br />

and community engagement manager Josie Whelan with<br />

the design which won SCAPE’s Re:Activate New Brighton<br />

competition.<br />

maps with some studio work and<br />

I thought that it would be perfect<br />

for the site because it’s so impacted<br />

by the weather . . . with surfing,<br />

I’m always looking at those<br />

maps and their impact on what<br />

we’re doing when we go out.”<br />

The completion of the project<br />

took seven days, but it was carried<br />

out over three weeks because<br />

of bad weather.<br />

It was fully funded by<br />

SCAPE, with O’Rourke also<br />

receiving prize money for his<br />

winning design.<br />

Fellow New Brighton artist<br />

Nathan Ingram was the other<br />

winner and is in the process<br />

of installing another work on<br />

the basketball court, which<br />

O’Rourke’s piece overlooks.<br />

Ingram’s artwork, titled Forces<br />

Ryman Healthcare spokesman<br />

David King said the age of residents<br />

had ultimately been behind<br />

its decision to not support the<br />

vehicle trust idea.<br />

“We think that creating a trust,<br />

which required our residents to<br />

drive, roster, and take<br />

full responsibility for<br />

their own scheduled<br />

transport service, placed<br />

a large and unfair burden<br />

on them.”<br />

Both Mr Tate and<br />

Ryman Healthcare were<br />

now again calling ECan<br />

to re-route the number<br />

Graham Tate<br />

44 bus service to take it along Philpotts<br />

Rd and closer to the village.<br />

However, ECan senior manager<br />

of public transport Stewart Gibbon<br />

said Philpotts Rd could only<br />

be accessed from one end.<br />

Ryman Healthcare had offered<br />

to provide a portion of its land for<br />

a bus turnaround area to make<br />

the detour smooth.<br />

Mr Gibbon said this would<br />

require the construction of “a<br />

physical piece of infrastructure<br />

to be built to enable a bus to do a<br />

U-turn at the end of the street.”<br />

This would cost $100,000 and<br />

this, combined with the time it<br />

would take to construct, meant<br />

ECan did not see this as a good<br />

Local<br />

Retirement village introduces<br />

option, Mr Gibbon said.<br />

Mr Gibbon said re-routing the<br />

number 44 also did not align<br />

with ECan’s regional public<br />

transport plan.<br />

“We’ve run out of ideas. We’ve<br />

offered alternatives and we haven’t<br />

been able to implement those<br />

alternatives, so there’s really<br />

not much to do.”<br />

Mr Tate said he and other<br />

residents were hugely upset<br />

with ECan’s stance on this.<br />

“Our feeling is that ECan<br />

is unwilling to offer any<br />

accessible bus service to the<br />

village. Residents believe<br />

this is an unacceptable<br />

position. It seems incredible that<br />

probably the largest concentration<br />

of residents in the locality<br />

and perhaps the most in need of<br />

public transport should have that<br />

access taken away.”<br />

From March, Ryman Healthcare<br />

will be operating a village<br />

taxi and car share scheme to<br />

make sure residents can still get<br />

around.<br />

One will be used as a bookable<br />

taxi, which will be available<br />

to get residents to and from<br />

appointments using a Rymanemployed<br />

driver who has a<br />

passenger licence. The second<br />

will be available for residents who<br />

can drive themselves.<br />

PEGASUS POST<br />

• By Gordon Findlater<br />

A KEY figure in establishing the<br />

Parklands rugby league club has<br />

died.<br />

Heta Mauhara passed away at<br />

the age of 71 after a battle with<br />

cancer. His funeral was held on<br />

Friday.<br />

Mauhara started playing<br />

league with the Papanui Tigers<br />

in the late 1960s and also played<br />

for Sydenham.<br />

He then<br />

went on to<br />

become a<br />

very successful<br />

junior<br />

coach at<br />

Papanui.<br />

Heta<br />

Mauhara<br />

A number<br />

of juniors<br />

coached by<br />

Mauhara ended up going on<br />

to represent New Zealand,<br />

including Simon Angell and<br />

Blair Harding.<br />

“He was a players coach. He<br />

was able to motivate players and<br />

was very positive in everything<br />

that he did,” said close friend Pat<br />

Harding.<br />

“In our community we had<br />

a lot of young students coming<br />

through and there were all sorts<br />

of social issues. He took it upon<br />

himself to try and eliminate a<br />

lot of those issue that were going<br />

on.”<br />

He was heavily involved with<br />

CELEBRATION: Heta Mauhara Day was held at Broadhaven<br />

Park in October to honour the legend (middle).<br />

establishing the Parklands rugby<br />

league club. “He loved sport and<br />

rugby league,” said Mauhara’s<br />

daughter Leeanne Ward.<br />

In October about 150 people<br />

turned out for a Heta Mauhara<br />

Day event at Broadhaven Park,<br />

which included a number of<br />

masters games.<br />

“He was very community and<br />

youth sport-minded. It’s nice to<br />

know he meant a lot to so many<br />

people,” said Ward.<br />

Mauhara had been part of the<br />

Eastern Masters Rugby League<br />

Club for the last 18 years and<br />

was playing in the team until<br />

last year when he was diagnosed<br />

with cancer. He was described<br />

as a very handy winger in his<br />

masters playing days.<br />

“He was just one of those<br />

really good guys,” said<br />

Canterbury Masters Rugby<br />

League chairman Bruce Milne.<br />

“He was also very good with<br />

karaoke and played the guitar<br />

quite well.<br />

Mauhara was not a drinker or<br />

smoker.<br />

His family and friends say<br />

he was a big lover of ice cream.<br />

On Wednesday 30th january a team from Mitre 10 MeGA Ferrymead ran a hands<br />

on holiday programme with Youthtown at the te Waka Unua School.<br />

The day started off with the banging of hammers and whirring of<br />

drills as the kids began to put together six planter boxes which<br />

will be left for the school. Working in groups and supervised by<br />

the Mitre 10 Team, it wasn’t long before the boxes were built and<br />

ready for painting. The children got stuck right in decorating them<br />

with purple, green and yellow before breaking for a well earned<br />

lunch. Once re-energised they were on to filling the planter boxes<br />

with soil and some vege mix supplied by Tui, before planting some<br />

edibles - lettuce, onion, broccoli to name a few. Overall it was a very<br />

successful day!<br />

Who is up for the<br />

Thousands will turn out<br />

for the 45th anniversary<br />

of the City2Surf on<br />

March 24. Reporter<br />

Sophie Cornish spoke to<br />

some of the people<br />

who have entered the<br />

fun run<br />

Karen Young – This year’s<br />

City2Surf will be the first ever<br />

running event Mrs Young has<br />

participated in. In June last year,<br />

she joined the Energise Health<br />

and Fitness<br />

running club and<br />

has been training<br />

for the 6km<br />

event through<br />

a <strong>12</strong>-week<br />

programme. Mrs<br />

Karen<br />

Young<br />

Young runs with<br />

her club once a<br />

week while trying<br />

to fit in her own training. “I<br />

think it will be achievable (the<br />

6km),” she said.<br />

Mark Winsley, 49 – Mr<br />

Winsley has tackled the 14km<br />

City2Surf event before, but this<br />

year he will run the 6km. That’s<br />

because his nine-year-old son,<br />

Felix, will be running with him,<br />

along with his partner, Janelle<br />

Clark. The father and son have<br />

been “hiking around the hills<br />

and jogging<br />

around the parks”<br />

to prepare for the<br />

event. Felix is not<br />

a novice when it<br />

comes to running<br />

events, having<br />

participated in the<br />

Kids’ Mara’Fun<br />

Winsley<br />

race before, which is part of<br />

the Christchurch Marathon. “I<br />

took my neighbours son to do it<br />

(City2Surf) a few years ago – he<br />

was a bit older. Felix watched it<br />

and said I’m going do that papa,”<br />

said Mr Winsley. The pair have<br />

been training two to three times<br />

a week. Their training includes a<br />

hike in the weekend and a couple<br />

of runs accompanied by “kicking<br />

the ball around and playing<br />

cricket,” said Mr Winsley.<br />

RIVALRY: Ezra, Anna and Josiah Beach. (Right) – Geoff<br />

Sutton and Angela Penn.<br />

Rebecca Barrell, 44<br />

– In the past Ms Barrell has<br />

completed the Buller Gorge Half<br />

Marathon. Now she wants to get<br />

back into running. Ms Barrell has<br />

set herself the goal of completing<br />

the 14km event<br />

this year and has<br />

been training<br />

using the 10-week<br />

programme offered<br />

by City2Surf. “I<br />

walk a lot up the<br />

Rebecca<br />

hills, but I wanted<br />

to improve my<br />

running again and<br />

Barrell<br />

I thought this was a good goal<br />

. . . I’ve done 10km in the past,<br />

years ago. I did the 6km last year<br />

with the dog, so I thought this<br />

was a good progression,” she said.<br />

The registered nurse has been<br />

running around Hagley Park for<br />

her training.<br />

Judith McInnes, 77 – Mrs<br />

McInnes, who is retired, says her<br />

participation in the 14km event<br />

is “not a hardcore thing, just<br />

for fun.” It will not be her first<br />

time in the City2Surf, having<br />

completed the event six or seven<br />

times previously, both walking<br />

and jogging and it’s just a<br />

jogging twice a<br />

week. She likes to<br />

explore the Harry<br />

walking the 6km and then we<br />

will have a coffee afterwards,” she<br />

said.<br />

Josiah Beach, 30, Anna<br />

Beach, 30, and Ezra Beach,<br />

16 – The trio will take on the<br />

14km event this year. Husband<br />

and wife, Josiah and Anna, have<br />

completed the event a handful<br />

of times previously, but it will be<br />

Ezra’s first time doing the 14km.<br />

“He’s just brought some new<br />

running shoes especially for it,”<br />

said his older brother Josiah, who<br />

has run up Rapaki Track a couple<br />

of times to prepare. “I think I’ll<br />

really get started on my training<br />

next month.” Mrs Beach ran her<br />

with<br />

first City2Surf in 2009, when<br />

training for a half marathon and<br />

“never looked back.”<br />

Ed Hogbin, 23 – Mr Hogbin<br />

describes himself as a “little bit<br />

of a runner” but it will be his first<br />

time doing the City2Surf. “A few<br />

years back I did a half marathon<br />

and thought I’d have another<br />

crack at one this year.” He will<br />

use the City2Surf 14km event as<br />

a “halfway gauge” while training<br />

to see how on-track he is for his<br />

next half marathon. Hagley Park<br />

is his ‘go-to’ spot for training two<br />

or three times a week.<br />

Angela Penn, 49,<br />

and Geoff Sutton, 42 – The<br />

brother and sister duo aren’t<br />

letting the fact they are getting<br />

older slow the down. The pair<br />

are running the 6km event in the<br />

City2Surf together. “I’m going to<br />

be 50-years-old soon, I might as<br />

well keep going while I am still<br />

standing and don’t have many<br />

injuries,” said Mrs Penn. Back<br />

in October, the pair ran in the<br />

<strong>Pegasus</strong> Fun Run 6km event and<br />

hope to run the 10km event at the<br />

Christchurch Marathon in June.<br />

They are both driven by the hope<br />

that one day they might have<br />

grandchildren, who they would<br />

like to be fit and healthy for. “It’s<br />

more about getting out there and<br />

enjoying it. I am really looking<br />

forward to spending some time<br />

with my brother, it’s good to hang<br />

out,” Mrs Penn.<br />

Roger Comber, 70 – Back<br />

in his youth, Mr Comber took<br />

part in two half-marathons in<br />

Ashburton and Timaru. Now<br />

retired from his job as an english<br />

teacher, he said he has decided to<br />

get back into running. He enjoys<br />

running around the streets near<br />

where he lives and often goes to<br />

Les Mills gym to stay in shape. “I<br />

like the City2Surf because it is an<br />

easy distance and it’s a popular<br />

run to take part in.”<br />

James Ferguson, 32 – Mr<br />

Ferguson will take on the 14km<br />

event in the City2Surf. It will<br />

2<br />

CITY2SURF<br />

with Les Mills<br />

Roger<br />

be his first time<br />

doing the event<br />

and he admits<br />

he’s a “first-time<br />

runner,” opting to<br />

keep fit through<br />

rugby and other<br />

sport. The event<br />

will help him<br />

Comber<br />

prepare for more running later<br />

in the year when he takes on<br />

the Buller Gorge half marathon<br />

and the Saint Clair Vineyard<br />

half marathon in Blenheim.<br />

He is enjoying his training –<br />

somewhat.<br />

“It’s a fair distance the 14km,<br />

but I’ve got to get fit somehow.”<br />

Before and after<br />

work a couple of<br />

times a week, Mr<br />

Ferguson has been<br />

challenging himself<br />

to run distances<br />

James<br />

Ferguson<br />

between 10km<br />

and 14km. He will<br />

accompanied by<br />

a group of friends<br />

who will also run in the event<br />

next month.<br />

Pauline De Wit, 66 – Mrs<br />

De Wit isn’t keen to slow down<br />

anytime soon. Previously, she<br />

has run the 6km event in the<br />

City2Surf but next month<br />

she decided to “push the boat<br />

out” and do the 14km run. “I<br />

felt I could have<br />

gone further<br />

so I am keen to<br />

try the 14km.<br />

I have seen the<br />

wonderful sense<br />

of achievement<br />

gained from an<br />

event such as this<br />

and wanted to be<br />

part of it . . . I am getting older<br />

and I want to achieve something<br />

like this before age takes me<br />

over.” Mrs De Wit has been<br />

training with her friend Jill,<br />

who she has done the event with<br />

before. The pair enjoy after-work<br />

walks around the Burwood<br />

Wetlands. “The Wetlands takes<br />

welcome your own research and collectively we can help<br />

bring it all together. Booking your travel via one agent is highly<br />

recommended. When booking via multiple channels, online, it<br />

can get very confusing and if anything goes wrong it can be hard<br />

to fix a problem and speak to a real person!<br />

Here at HOT, we offer a 24/7 emergency phone line so you get<br />

to speak to one of us directly and we will go out of our way to<br />

solve any problems so you can carry on and enjoy your trip.<br />

That personal experience and our direct contacts go a long<br />

way when you need to get out of a pickle!<br />

You may be thinking to yourself that we are more expensive<br />

that booking online?<br />

This is simply not true. In most circumstances we can get<br />

the exact same price that you may have seen. We work with<br />

many “low cost booking engines” such as Expedia and can<br />

sometimes even provide a cheaper rate. Another very valid<br />

point to note is that if you purchase travel via an overseas<br />

website you may find that the Consumer Guarantees Act might<br />

not apply and if anything goes wrong it can be difficult to<br />

obtain any kind of rebate or refund. By booking with TAANZ<br />

Bonded House of Travel we’re with you all the way and your<br />

money is protected.<br />

So, where to next you may ask?<br />

Here are some of our HOT picks for <strong>2019</strong>…<br />

SOUTH PACIFIC: A HOT destination is Samoa for its fab<br />

beaches, laid back atmosphere and some great family friendly<br />

resorts. For something different and if you love to snorkel OR<br />

dive then try Niue. Crystal clear waters and still a bit off the<br />

beaten track.<br />

ASIA: One HOT destination is Borneo where jungle meets<br />

the beach. Get a chance to see Orangutans, Proboscis<br />

monkeys, Sun bears, turtles and an abundance of bird life<br />

within their natural or protected habitats. After this we<br />

suggest some time over on the beautiful beaches near Kota<br />

Kinabalu. A great place to take the family.<br />

USA: Take time out in the Southern States. Visit vibrant<br />

cities like New Orleans, Austin, Dallas and then maybe head<br />

up the Music belt to Memphis and Nashville. A great area<br />

Back row, L to R: Julia Dawson, Jodie Daniell, Aimee<br />

Ford, Bella Hill Front row, L to R: Alannah Batt, Lisa<br />

Hutchison, Nicky de Clifford, Claire Harre<br />

to do a self-drive and perhaps combine with a cruise from<br />

Galveston down into the Gulf of Mexico.<br />

EUROPE: Places we just love in Europe are Croatia,<br />

Portugal, and Russia. All are a little bit off the beaten track<br />

to the main tourist hot spots. We recommend a small ship<br />

cruise around the Adriatic to explore the Croatian islands.<br />

Portugal has amazing old towns combined with stunning<br />

beaches in the South. Russia continually surprises us with<br />

great feedback about how friendly the people are and how<br />

different it is from many other parts of Europe.<br />

SOUTH AMERICA: An amazing place to visit is Ecuador. Here<br />

you can visit an eco-lodge in the Amazon Jungle, take a cruise<br />

out to the Galapagos Islands where you can wonder at the<br />

wildlife & beauty of this area. Plus, a chance to spend time in<br />

the old city of Quito and soak up the South American charm.<br />

AUSTRALIA: Why not head to Tasmania – maybe<br />

somewhere you’ve not considered before. Tasmania offers<br />

amazing culture in the cities, beautiful scenery and some<br />

impressive historical sights. We suggest a self-drive holiday to<br />

make the most of it.<br />

We look forward to welcoming you in store.<br />

KIDSTUFF<br />

Cathedral Grammar Pre-School<br />

located within the heart of the city<br />

Our play based learning<br />

approach supports your child<br />

as they begin their exciting<br />

journey as a lifelong learner.<br />

Play, laughter and learning are essential<br />

ingredients for a successful Pre-School<br />

education. The crucial early years need to<br />

be nurtured, shaped and cherished as your<br />

child takes their first steps in education.<br />

Cathedral Grammar Pre-School proudly<br />

teaches the children of tomorrow, today.<br />

At Cathedral Grammar Pre-School your<br />

whole family is welcomed into the wider<br />

embrace of the Grammar community<br />

including whole school fun and functions,<br />

services and support as well as smooth<br />

transition to the Junior School and links to<br />

the Prep School.<br />

In Cathedral Grammar’s purpose built<br />

Pre-School, taught by qualified teachers,<br />

your child will discover by curiosity,<br />

investigation and exploration. Our low<br />

child/teacher ratios, ensure your child’s<br />

quality individual and group learning.<br />

Research states that play may be the<br />

single most important things that humans<br />

do. “Our play based learning approach<br />

supports your child as they begin their<br />

exciting journey as a lifelong learner” says<br />

Principal Scott Thelning.<br />

Your child will develop essential<br />

foundations in literacy and numeracy. He<br />

or she will enjoy the benefits of specialised<br />

facilities, subjects and staff including Art,<br />

Physical Education, Yoga and Chapel.<br />

When children feel good about<br />

themselves and their abilities, they are able<br />

to take flight and explore, discover, take<br />

risks and play, laugh and learn effectively<br />

and successfully. “Self-esteem is at the core<br />

of this development process” Thelning<br />

says.<br />

Being an inner city Pre-School gives<br />

you a wonderfully easy opportunity to<br />

engage in your child’s learning if you are<br />

working in the CBD. Every opportunity<br />

is taken to utilise our central city location<br />

to extend our ‘campus’ from the Botanic<br />

Gardens to the Canterbury Museum,<br />

The Christchurch Art Gallery Te Puna o<br />

Waiwhetu to the Christchurch Transitional<br />

Cathedral, from Tūranga (Christchurch<br />

central library) to the emergency services.<br />

By now, landlords, property managers<br />

and most tenants will be aware of the<br />

changes to the Residential Tenancy Act<br />

concerning home insulation, requiring all<br />

rental properties to have adequate ceiling<br />

and under floor insulation installed, where<br />

practicable, by 30 June <strong>2019</strong>.<br />

However, many landlords and property<br />

managers may not be aware they could be<br />

liable for a $4,000 fine (per non-compliant<br />

property), payable to the tenants, if their<br />

investment properties do not meet the<br />

standard in time. With an estimated <strong>12</strong>5,000<br />

rental properties still requiring better<br />

insulation, these owners and property<br />

managers are being urged to take action now<br />

to avoid the impending rush.<br />

Local long-established insulation specialists<br />

EnergySmart are a selected service<br />

provider for the government’s EECA (Energy<br />

Efficiency and Conservation Authority)<br />

insulation programme, and currently offer<br />

both landlords and homeowners great<br />

savings to better insulate their properties.<br />

The company offers free property<br />

assessments with an insulation Compliance<br />

Certificate for the property if the existing<br />

insulation already complies. If insulation<br />

is required, they provide a Compliance<br />

Report and quote to complete the work.<br />

Extended home energy assessments are<br />

also available, covering heat pumps and LED<br />

lights if required.<br />

EnergySmart are one of the largest<br />

manufacturers and installers of insulation<br />

products in New Zealand and supply a<br />

range of home solutions including their<br />

own insulation brands Terra Lana wool and<br />

PolyKing polyester, as well as supplying Pink<br />

Batts fibreglass insulation. All carry a 50<br />

year warranty.<br />

Their installers are fully trained, clean<br />

and tidy, and their work is audited both<br />

internally as well as by the government, so<br />

you are assured of the highest standard of<br />

workmanship.<br />

EnergySmart has easy payment options<br />

including no deposit and 36 months<br />

interest free, meaning you can insulate your<br />

property from only $<strong>12</strong> per week. Landlords<br />

can insulate now, take advantage of current<br />

discounts, and beat the rush.<br />

While insulation in rental properties is now<br />

a legal requirement for landlords, they will<br />

also have the satisfaction of knowing their<br />

tenants are living in a warmer healthier, more<br />

energy-efficient home, and consequently<br />

are more likely to stay.<br />

To enquire about a free property<br />

assessment and insulation options,<br />
