Adding beauty<br />

to the banks<br />

of the Avon River<br />

Performing in spite of the odds<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-<br />

Harding<br />

EVER SINCE she was a<br />

child, there is nothing else<br />

Laurel Gregory has wanted<br />

to do other than perform on<br />

stage.<br />

But it has been a “rocky”<br />

road for the Richmond<br />

22-year-old, who has been<br />

battling an auto-immune<br />

disease for about 14 years,<br />

which has led to her being<br />

diagnosed with arthritis.<br />

Yet instead of feeling<br />

sorry for herself, she has<br />

refused to let anything<br />

stop her from chasing<br />

her dream of becoming a<br />

professional musical theatre<br />

performer.<br />

Gregory is currently<br />

training in New York City<br />

at the Broadway Dance<br />

Center as part of a threemonth<br />

programme.<br />

Founded in 1984, the dance<br />

school is known as one of the<br />

first drop-in studios to be<br />

established in the world and<br />

has more than 80 teachers<br />

and choreographers taking<br />

classes.<br />

As part of her training,<br />

Gregory is attending 12<br />

classes a week, including<br />

ballet, bodyArt and<br />

contemporary dance. She<br />

said she chose to attend the<br />

school after needing a “fresh<br />

perspective” on dancing.<br />

Pressure<br />

ramps up<br />

to start<br />

Oram Ave<br />

extension<br />

• By Matt Slaughter<br />

CALLS TO make funding for the<br />

proposed Oram Ave extension<br />

available sooner are being<br />

supported.<br />

The project is being overseen by<br />

Development Christchurch Ltd<br />

and is currently scheduled to be<br />

completed in the 2018-2028.<br />

DCL manager of communications<br />

and engagement Cecilia<br />

Densham said: “DCL supports<br />

the Oram Ave project and would<br />

certainly like to see it brought<br />

forward.”<br />

Coastal Ward councillor David<br />

East and the New Brighton Business<br />

and Landowners Association<br />

also said the $12 million budgeted<br />

to go towards the completion of<br />

the project should be made available<br />

sooner.<br />

Cr East said given DCL’s support,<br />

he would now seriously consider<br />

making a formal proposal to<br />

the city council to get the Oram<br />

Ave extension under way.<br />

He said DCL’s support of<br />

the project would give him the<br />

grounds he needed to take a<br />

more formal approach to have the<br />

funding brought forward.<br />

SAME OLD, same old for road repairs in<br />

the eastern suburbs.<br />

Part of New Brighton Rd (page 3) is in<br />

desperate need of an upgrade.<br />

I lived on New Brighton Rd before, and<br />

for about 18 months after the February 22, 2011, earthquake.<br />

The road was severely damaged. Every time a truck or a vehicle<br />

towing a trailer went by it felt like another quake had struck.<br />

Sometimes it felt like the house might collapse.<br />

So, I feel the frustration of the Coastal-Burwood Community<br />

Board in their bid hasten repairs.<br />

The city’s leaders have rarely – in my view anyway –<br />

prioritised the east. New Brighton Rd is another example.<br />

All power to the community board to make life better for<br />

those in the east.<br />

Two-year wait for road repairs<br />

• By Matt Slaughter<br />

ROAD USERS in the east will<br />

have to wait another two years<br />

for one of the area’s most badly<br />

damaged roads to be repaired.<br />

THe city council has confirmed<br />

the repair to New Brighton Rd<br />

between Bower Ave and the<br />

Pages Rd roundabout will take<br />

place in 2020-21 at a cost of<br />

about $1.2 million.<br />

Members of<br />

the Coastal-<br />

Burwood<br />

Community<br />

Board said this<br />

is too long to<br />

wait and they<br />

Kim Money<br />

would continue<br />

to put pressure<br />

on the city<br />

council to start work now.<br />

Deputy chairman Tim Sintes<br />

said the community board’s<br />

concerns about the state of the<br />

stretch of road would continue<br />

to be raised in its meetings until<br />

the city council did something<br />

about it.<br />

“It won’t go away until it’s<br />

fixed. The community board’s<br />

members like myself and others<br />

get it coming to us all the time,<br />

so we’ll just keep bringing it up<br />

all the time.”<br />

Board chairwoman Kim<br />

Money said: “We just need to<br />

be seeing some action because<br />

it is seriously affecting the wellbeing<br />

of our residents. A lot of<br />

these earthquake repairs that<br />

we haven’t seen for the last eight<br />

years are attached to the wellbeing<br />

of the community.<br />

“On a daily basis, we are<br />

seeing these repairs that haven’t<br />

been done and that’s really<br />

hard, so for us to be able to move<br />

these things forward would be<br />

good.”<br />

Ms Money said the stretch of<br />

road was an “absolute disgrace.”<br />

“THere’s plenty of potholes,<br />

bumpy road dips and water<br />

flooding on it . . . the pothole<br />

people must be in there virtually<br />

every week filling potholes.”<br />

THe city council has also said<br />

the project won’t include the<br />

repair of the Cockayne Reserve<br />

car park.<br />

Ms Money said the car park<br />

had been used as a dumping<br />

ground by contractors and it was<br />

common for shingle and metal<br />

to be dumped there.<br />

UNEVEN:<br />

Road users<br />

will have to<br />

wait another<br />

two years for<br />

New Brighton<br />

Rd between<br />

Bower Ave and<br />

the Pages Rd<br />

roundabout to<br />

be fixed.<br />

“It really is an eyesore … it<br />

really is just not fair for the<br />

residents and the shops and<br />

retailers in that area.”<br />

Mr Sintes said the community<br />

board had been calling for New<br />

Brighton Rd to be repaired<br />

since the February 22, 2011,<br />

earthquake and another twoyear<br />

delay would be a huge blow<br />

for residents.<br />

“New Brighton Rd has been<br />

on the agenda for so long and<br />

it’s just so disappointing to see it<br />

taking this long.”<br />

CONSENT FOR CAR PARK<br />

A new car park will be<br />

constructed at Thomson Park<br />

on Marine Pde. Resource<br />

consent has been approved and<br />

the project will be completed<br />

by June. The new car park is<br />

part of a project to renew the<br />

facilities in the park. A new<br />

public toilet was installed in<br />

December and the project will<br />

also involve the installation<br />

of a new basketball court and<br />

the completion of landscaping<br />

work. Meanwhile, a project to<br />

repair earthquake damage in<br />

Bexley Park will get under way<br />

this month. The car park will<br />

be replaced, upgrades will be<br />

made to the track connecting<br />

the car park and toilet, and a<br />

damaged footbridge will be<br />

removed.<br />

BUS STOP UPGRADE<br />

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

last week the Papanui-<br />

Innes Community Board<br />

had approved a proposal to<br />

upgrade the bus stop and<br />

shelter on Shirley Rd in<br />

front of the Palms Shopping<br />

Centre. The proposal was not<br />

approved and actually only<br />

considered and was discussed<br />

at a meeting on February 22<br />

rather than February 18, as<br />

was first reported.<br />

Dead birds<br />

not linked<br />

to spraying<br />

ENVIRONMENT Canterbury<br />

has reassured Southshore<br />

residents dead birds in the area<br />

are not related to the spraying of<br />

the spartina pest plant.<br />

ECan said the birds were quite<br />

some distance from the spraying<br />

of the chemical Haloxyfop<br />

and recently died, so it was very<br />

unlikely that they were affected<br />

in any way by spray.<br />

ECan principal of resource<br />

management adviser of<br />

biosecurity Laurence Smith<br />

said spraying was “applied to<br />

spartina at low tide to allow the<br />

maximum amount of time for<br />

the chemical to take effect. It<br />

has been mixed and applied at<br />

the lowest concentrations to still<br />

be effective, and only to a very<br />

limited number of plants . . . at<br />

these levels, the chance of birds<br />

or other animals dying from the<br />

chemical is extremely low.”<br />

The controlled application<br />

of Haloxyfop was undertaken<br />

jointly by the city council, the<br />

Department of Conservation<br />

and ECan at selected sites<br />

around the Avon/Heathcote<br />

Estuary, McCormacks Bay and<br />

Brooklands Reserve.<br />

This is to follow up on initial<br />

control works that were undertaken<br />

at a similar time last year.<br />

IT HAS TAKEN two bike<br />

crashes in 2min to convince the<br />

city council to fill potholes near<br />

Banks Avenue School.<br />

On February 22, two pupils<br />

were left scraped and bruised<br />

after hitting rough patches on<br />

River Rd, Shirley, in separate<br />

crashes.<br />

Neighbouring resident Patrick<br />

Boland found both pupils after<br />

they had fallen off their bikes.<br />

Mr Boland and principal Toni<br />

Burnside then got in touch with<br />

the city council and asked it to<br />

fix the street.<br />

Mr Boland said he has been<br />

asking the city council for five<br />

years to make the road safe, but<br />

very little had been done.<br />

City council road maintenance<br />

manager Mark Pinner said a<br />

“small number of potholes” have<br />

now been fixed.<br />

Mrs Burnside said injuries<br />

were almost a daily occurrence<br />

for pupils who walked and biked<br />

to school along River Rd.<br />

A parent of one of the pupils<br />

who fell of their bike, Cathy<br />

Allden, said although her son<br />

Jack wasn’t seriously injured, he<br />

was shaken by the accident.<br />

“It could have been worse if a<br />

car had been close . . . he literally<br />

fell right into the middle of the<br />

road.”<br />

Mrs Burnside said the two<br />

crashes were “just the tip of the<br />

iceberg as far as children who are<br />

hurting themselves goes.”<br />

Banks Avenue School is due to<br />

move to a new site in 2021.<br />

Mr Pinner said since 2015, the<br />

city council has serviced River<br />

Rd and other roads in the red<br />

zone less regularly.<br />

Mrs Burnside said repairing<br />

the road completely may not be<br />

the best option because it is in<br />

the red zone, but work needs<br />

to be done to ensure it remains<br />

safe.<br />

OUCH: Banks Avenue School principal Toni Burnside with Jack Allden who was one of two pupils<br />

to fall off their bike after hitting potholes on River Rd.<br />

diagnosed with rheumatoid and<br />

psoriatic arthritis.<br />

Gregory said both conditions<br />

are caused by the auto-immune<br />

disease, psoriasis, which causes a<br />

rapid build-up of skin cells.<br />

Before she was diagnosed, she<br />

was told her skin condition was a<br />

result of dermatitis. But now she<br />

is taking an oral immune system<br />

suppressant, methotrexate, which<br />

has kept her condition under<br />

control. The only time she ever<br />

stopped dancing was when she<br />

attempted to take a break from<br />

her medication in 2015 to find a<br />

more natural way to control her<br />

condition. When she stopped<br />

taking it her psoriasis came back<br />

“horribly” and she had to spend<br />

three months away from dance.<br />

“This time (away from dance)<br />

allowed me to realise how much<br />

I actually enjoyed dancing rather<br />

than just doing it,” she said.<br />

Gregory said she is grateful the<br />

medication gives her the ability<br />

to do what she wants with her life.<br />

Bid to inform New Brighton voters<br />

• By Matt Slaughter<br />

NOT MANY suburbs have as<br />

much at stake in this year’s local<br />

body elections as New Brighton.<br />

With the construction of<br />

the New Brighton hot pools<br />

set to be completed this year,<br />

the continued push from the<br />

New Brighton Business and<br />

Landowners<br />

Association to<br />

get the Oram<br />

Ave extension<br />

under way and<br />

opportunities to<br />

grow business<br />

in the area, New<br />

Nikki Griffin Brighton has a<br />

lot to gain.<br />

For many residents, ensuring<br />

•From page 1<br />

He said completing the<br />

construction of the Oram Ave<br />

extension at the same time as big<br />

projects like the New Brighton<br />

hot pools made total sense.<br />

“If they’re starting to advance<br />

some projects that are going to<br />

see the business core move ahead<br />

. . . the two have got to be linked<br />

in some fashion.”<br />

New Brighton Business<br />

and Landowners Association<br />

charwoman Rebecca Tavete said<br />

it would continue to put pressure<br />

on the city council to start work<br />

on the extension and will discuss<br />

how to do this at its meeting on<br />

Thursday next week.<br />

“We’re at a point now where<br />

we’ve done all the consultation<br />

that needs to be done and it’s just<br />

time to get stuff happening.”<br />

The proposal would see Oram<br />

the right people are in power<br />

to drive this growth would be a<br />

priority.<br />

However, too many people are<br />

out of the loop with the political<br />

decision-making process in the<br />

area.<br />

To address this, community<br />

members are planning to start a<br />

campaign to educate residents in<br />

New Brighton and its surrounding<br />

suburbs on all aspects of<br />

October’s local body elections.<br />

Bin Inn New Brighton owner<br />

Nikki Griffin is helping to organise<br />

the campaign and said<br />

it will aim to provide residents<br />

information about who will be<br />

running, their policies and how<br />

they could affect New Brighton.<br />

Mrs Griffin hopes this will also<br />

help educate people who are not<br />

aware of the difference between<br />

the city council and Environment<br />

Canterbury and the roles<br />

the organisations play.<br />

“As a community, we need to<br />

ask these questions. What are<br />

you going to do for us? What is<br />

our vote going to get us? Rather<br />

than leaving it two to three<br />

Ave extended from Brighton mall<br />

to Hawke St to increase access<br />

to New Brighton’s commercial<br />

centre and create a sheltered retail<br />

and hospitality area.<br />

Former New Brighton Business<br />

and Landowners Association<br />

manager Paul Lonsdale said the<br />

project was proposed to the city<br />

council in 2012 and was eventually<br />

included in the New Brighton<br />

master plan in 2015.<br />

residents to<br />

inform them<br />

on all aspects<br />

of October’s<br />

local body<br />

elections.<br />

months out or a month out from<br />

the election, it’s actually about<br />

thinking about it now.”<br />

Fellow campaign organiser<br />

Patrick Boland said too many<br />

residents in New Brighton<br />

and other eastern suburbs felt<br />

disconnected from the political<br />

decision-making process.<br />

“There’s certain lobby groups<br />

Given funding for the project<br />

was available, Mr Lonsdale said<br />

it had taken the city council too<br />

long to provide funding for it.<br />

He said the city council had<br />

been working on the master plan<br />

since 2012.<br />

“We’re now in <strong>2019</strong> and nothing<br />

really in that particular commercial<br />

area has been done to<br />

actually activate capital reinvestment.”<br />

Mr Lonsdale said the project<br />

has the potential to bring huge<br />

investment to New Brighton, but<br />

delaying it any longer may put<br />

investors off.<br />

“The Oram Ave extension provides<br />

lots of opportunities for not<br />

only getting a better connection<br />

to the foreshore along Marine Pde<br />

. . . it provides a really great opportunity<br />

for businesses to locate<br />

in there, especially hospitality<br />

or interest groups who, by virtue<br />

of being more organised or being<br />

more vocal, have had a huge say<br />

in shaping the blueprint for the<br />

[Ōtākaro Avon] river corridor<br />

for example. But, we’re still<br />

having residents’ associations or<br />

other groups, which are speaking<br />

on behalf of their community . . .<br />

that have not engaged at all with<br />

their local residents.”<br />

Mrs Griffin said the amount<br />

of on-going work and work still<br />

to do in New Brighton meant it is<br />

important residents are given the<br />

knowledge they need to make<br />

informed decisions that are best<br />

for the area.<br />

Mr Boland said discussions are<br />

under way on the best ways to<br />

provide election information to<br />

residents.<br />

He said the Peoples Republic<br />

of New Brighton Facebook group<br />

would be used, but he wants the<br />

campaign to also reach residents<br />

who are not on social media.<br />

“It’s important for all of us to<br />

actually get out there and door<br />

knock and talk to your neighbours<br />

as well. By doing both<br />

things, I think we’ll get there.”<br />

Project has potential to bring in investment<br />

WAITING: Work on the Oram Ave extension has not started yet.<br />

businesses.”<br />

It was also important the city<br />

council started work on the<br />

extension this year, so it did not<br />

clash with other big projects in<br />

New Brighton, Mr Lonsdale said.<br />

“The hot pools are about to<br />

go in . . . those works are going<br />

to take just over a year. We’ve<br />

got between now and then to do<br />

other work so we’re not interfering<br />

with those projects.”<br />

Mrs Tavete said the Oram Ave<br />

extension would also improve<br />

access to new developments like<br />

the hot pools once they were<br />

finished.<br />

“If we have all these other<br />

initiatives happening . . . we’re<br />

going to need some better traffic<br />

flow. So, the Oram Ave extension<br />

is quite critical for those other<br />

initiatives to be successful.”<br />

PEGASUS POST<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

Business leader gives back to community<br />

• By Matt Slaughter<br />

REBECCA TAVETE was faced<br />

with a decision two years ago.<br />

She could either continue<br />

running her co-working space<br />

from its premises in the central<br />

city, or take a risk and start a<br />

new space in New Brighton.<br />

The 44-year-old Aranui resident<br />

chose New Brighton and<br />

hasn’t looked back.<br />

Mrs Tavete is the founder of<br />

the ARGO Beach Co-Working<br />

space on Marine Pde and the<br />

chairwoman of the New Brighton<br />

Business and Landowners<br />

Association.<br />

Mrs Tavete filled a number<br />

of managerial roles all over<br />

Christchurch and even worked<br />

for 10 years in Portugal before<br />

taking her work to New<br />

Brighton.<br />

In spite of loving the coastal<br />

lifestyle in Portugal and bringing<br />

her two children Diego, 21,<br />

and Porzia, 17, up there, she said<br />

“there’s no place like home.”<br />

“We have everything there<br />

is to offer I think here in New<br />

Zealand and especially on a<br />

coastal frontage like here in New<br />

Brighton and it really took me to<br />

be living overseas to really appreciate<br />

what I had at my doorstep.”<br />

She said New Brighton had just<br />

as much to offer and had been<br />

LOYAL: Rebecca Tavete started the ARGO Co-working space in New Brighton to give back to<br />

the community that she and her family love so much.<br />

a hub for her since first moving<br />

out to the east as a 13-year-old.<br />

She said her children were<br />

“very staunch patriotic eastsiders”<br />

and “they wouldn’t give<br />

up living here for everything”<br />

and her parents belonged to the<br />

New Brighton Bowling Club.<br />

Starting ARGO in New Brighton<br />

“made total sense” and had<br />

been her way of bringing some<br />

life back into the area that her<br />

and her family loved so much.<br />

“I just started wandering<br />

around Brighton and I came<br />

down to Marine Pde and I<br />

looked up and you could see that<br />

this top floor was empty and it<br />

had no life.”<br />

“Taking the time to wander<br />

around and just take it in, it just<br />

felt really good.”<br />

Argo had since become a<br />

place where businesses, workers<br />

and students from throughout<br />

Christchurch came to experience<br />

working by the seaside, she said.<br />

“It’s creating a nice synergy of<br />

work and community and bringing<br />

a really nice sense of that<br />

work-life balance.”<br />

Mrs Tavete said her goal was<br />

its clients would see New Brighton’s<br />

potential, spend money in<br />

the area and New Brighton’s appeal<br />

would spread as a result.<br />

She said she had always seen<br />

New Brighton’s potential and<br />

through her roles at ARGO and<br />

the New Brighton Business and<br />

Landowners Association she<br />

wanted to give people the opportunity<br />

to see this potential for<br />

themselves.<br />

“You’ve got the beautiful ocean<br />

right in front of you, you’ve got<br />

these amazing palm trees that<br />

line the parade here . . . we’ve got<br />

amazing people that are working<br />

here.”<br />

“I guess we get into automatic<br />

mode as human beings when<br />

we’re in business and just think<br />

the CBD is where we need to be,<br />

but it’s absolutely not.”<br />

New walking path adds<br />

to beauty of riverbank<br />

• By Matt Slaughter<br />

THE RICHMOND end of the<br />

Avon River looks even more<br />

beautiful this week.<br />

Last week, Richmond<br />

Community Garden volunteers<br />

teamed up with Phillipstownbased<br />

organisation Greening<br />

the Rubble, the Avon-Otakaro<br />

Network and residents to bring<br />

life to the river’s surroundings.<br />

Greening the Rubble<br />

community activator Jane Ash<br />

said a small group of volunteers<br />

got together to install a 25m log<br />

round walking path along the<br />

side of the river and a viewing<br />

platform, which extends around<br />

a large tree.<br />

Each of the 22 logs will contain<br />

one word of a poem by Teoti<br />

Jardine.<br />

The poem would be about<br />

“kaitiakitanga,” which Jardine<br />

said translated to “taking care<br />

of.”<br />

“It is about connecting people<br />

to the place as well as the<br />

memories of the place,” Jardine<br />

said.”<br />

The words will be inscribed on<br />

the log rounds next week.<br />

Ms Ash said Jardine had been<br />

very involved in the Richmond<br />

area after the earthquakes<br />

as kaumatua of the Avon-<br />

Ōtākaro Network.<br />

She said he also blessed the<br />

site before the project to beautify<br />

the Avon River edge began in<br />

September last year.<br />

Richmond Community<br />

Garden co-founder Cathy Allden<br />

said projects like this mean a lot<br />

to the community.<br />

“It is important for Richmond<br />

because so many people enjoy<br />

that walk that goes along the<br />

river loop.”<br />

“If we can improve this<br />

section of the river where<br />

everyone utilises it, and make it<br />

a destination, it will be great for<br />

Richmond, it will be great for the<br />

residents and it will be great for<br />

people’s mental health who are<br />

using that specific space.”<br />

LINWOOD NORTH School has<br />

been renamed Whītau School.<br />

The school held a ceremony to<br />

celebrate the renaming on Friday.<br />

A traditional whaka noa to<br />

welcome the guests was followed<br />

by the gifting of the new name by<br />

Ngai Tahu representative Lynne<br />

Ti Aika.<br />

A Principal’s Gold Award was<br />

also handed out to a pupil from<br />

each of the school’s 11 classes<br />

during the ceremony.<br />

The awards went to pupils who<br />

showcased the school’s values.<br />

Whītau School deputy<br />

principal Amy Collins said the<br />

ceremony was hugely significant<br />

for the school and a great<br />

occasion.<br />

“It was wonderful to see all<br />

students, staff, whānau and our<br />

local and wider community<br />

together in our school hall<br />

celebrating this special occasion.”<br />

NORTH WAI boardrider<br />

Ava Henderson was crowned<br />

champion of the under-16 girls<br />

division at the Billabong Grom<br />

Series.<br />

Ava, 13, won the final round<br />

of the series at Piha.<br />

She came into the round with<br />

the series lead after winning the<br />

second event in Whangamata<br />

and finishing as the runner-up<br />

in the opening round at Mt<br />

Maunganui. With bad weather<br />

marching up the North Island’s<br />

west coast before the final<br />

round, the event was completed<br />

in one big day with solid 1m<br />

waves and light cross-onshore<br />

wind at the south end of Piha.<br />

Ava advanced to the final with<br />

a score of 8.9 in her heat, which<br />

was good enough for second.<br />

In her final ride she took things<br />

to another level, scoring a<br />

Taranaki’s Natasha Gouldsbury<br />

(9.27), Piha’s Liv Haysom (8.76)<br />

and Raglan’s Brie Bennett (8.4).<br />

The teenager has been in a<br />

rich vein of form this year. The<br />

previous weekend she won both<br />

the under-16 and under-18 girls<br />

divisions in the third round of<br />

New seats<br />

installed at<br />

Linfield Park<br />

• By Gordon Findlater<br />

THE GRASS embankment at<br />

Linfield Park is sporting a new<br />

look ahead of the rugby season.<br />

It is now home to 100 seats from<br />

Lancaster Park which is currently<br />

being demolished.<br />

The seats have been constructed<br />

near the halfway line underneath<br />

the scoreboard on the main<br />

ground at Linfield, opposite the<br />

rugby clubrooms.<br />

“As long as you don’t get that<br />

easterly it’ll be a damn good spot<br />

to watch the footy,” said Linwood<br />

Rugby Club manager Aaron<br />

Flynn.<br />

The seats were purchased more<br />

than 12 months ago by Flynn.<br />

However, the placing of the seats<br />

was put on the back burner until<br />

this summer.<br />

The installation of the seats<br />

was carried out by former<br />

Linwood player Shaun Lyons<br />

and John Norton from Taurus<br />

Construction.<br />

“They had to get some brackets<br />

made up and have concreted them<br />

in – they did it really well,” said<br />

Flynn.<br />

The seats will be in action this<br />

weekend when Linwood’s premier<br />

side play Methven for the Tane<br />

Norton Cup. Linwood will host<br />

Sydenham in their first match of<br />

the premier metro competition on<br />

New Brighton gears up<br />

for surf-themed festival<br />

The New Brighton community and its<br />

surfers are keenly anticipating the annual<br />

Duke Festival of Surfing taking place in<br />

New Brighton from <strong>March</strong> 11-17.<br />

The event was instigated in 2016 to<br />

honour Hawaain surfing legend Duke<br />

Kahanamoku, who had arrived in New<br />

Zealand in 1915 and went surfing at<br />

New Brighton. A replica of his surfboard<br />

was placed on the foreshore by the<br />

Pier & Foreshore Society in 2015 to<br />

commemorate that, with the annual<br />

Duke Festival being launched the<br />

following year.<br />

Society member and event co-founder<br />

Esther Perriam is playing a key role in<br />

organising the <strong>2019</strong> Ray White New<br />

Brighton Duke Festival of Surfing,<br />

which aims to not only raise the profile<br />

of surfing in New Brighton, but also to<br />

lift community spirits and participation<br />

in the eastern suburbs, benefit local<br />

businesses from visitors coming for the<br />

event and raise funds for indoor facilities<br />

at the new hot salt water pool being<br />

developed in New Brighton.<br />

The festival is being launched on <strong>March</strong><br />

11 with a function for invited guests,<br />

then on <strong>March</strong> 14 an art exhibtion,<br />

titled Stoked <strong>2019</strong> – The Art of Surfing<br />

and featuring works by artists and<br />

photographers from Christchurch<br />

and elsewhere, is being held at the<br />

Level 1 Bar.<br />

Several other events throughout the<br />

week will add to the fun and excitement<br />

of the festival. These include free<br />

surfing lessons for 100 primary school<br />

students from four local schools, an art<br />

competition for local school children,<br />

with the theme ‘My perfect Brighton<br />

day’, and a free open air movie night on<br />

Friday, <strong>March</strong> 15, with Finding Nemo<br />

screening at 6pm and The Endless<br />

Summer at 8pm.<br />

Surf competitions will of course be be<br />

a key feature of the festival, with short<br />

board events for under 12s and under<br />

20s and age group and open long board<br />

events for men and women. These will<br />

be held from <strong>March</strong> 15-17.<br />

Competitors in the short board<br />

events, which are sanctioned by<br />

Surfing New Zealand and SISA, can<br />

gain calendar points and potential<br />

selection for the New Zealand surfing<br />

team.<br />

Freshly cooked takeaways<br />

to meet customer demand<br />

For almost a quarter of a century,<br />

Gourmet Seafoods QE2 in Travis Road,<br />

North New Brighton has been providing<br />

delicious, freshly cooked takeaways for<br />

local residents.<br />

Over that time, the range of items has<br />

grown and developed to satisfy changing<br />

customer tastes, says owner Peter, who runs<br />

the business with his wife Helen, and today<br />

they serve much more than the basics they<br />

started with.<br />

In addition to the standard fish and chips,<br />

Gourmet Seafoods offers a selection of<br />

specialty fish, including gurnard, tarakihi,<br />

sole and blue cod, which can be crumbed<br />

or battered. The seafood selection includes<br />

fresh and cooked Bluff oysters in season,<br />

Pacific oysters, scallops and mussels.<br />

Entrée items include mini spring rolls<br />

and corn nuggets, while hamburgers<br />

are another popular choice, with a good<br />

selection on offer.<br />

“People like variety, so we try to give<br />

them that,” says Peter.<br />

He also introduced souvlakis to the<br />

menu, filled with beef, chicken or lamb and<br />

tzatziki sauce. Crispy chicken fillets have<br />

been added to the souvlaki choices, and<br />

Peter says these have proved very popular<br />

with customers.<br />

In fact, their crispy, crunchy batter for<br />

fish and chicken has become a signature<br />

item at Gourmet Seafoods, and is favoured<br />

by many happy customers.<br />

Their chips are hand-made and freshly<br />

cooked every day. Always seeking to<br />

improve their products, Peter and Helen<br />

have changed from frozen to fresh chips, as<br />

they have found that’s what their customers<br />

prefer. They have also introduced glutenfree<br />

items in response to customer demand.<br />

To accompany the delicious hot food,<br />

a wide selection of soft drinks is available<br />

from the chiller.<br />

Dedicated to the business, Peter is<br />

carrying on a family tradition at Gourmet<br />

Seafoods – he is the third generation of<br />

his family to own a fish and chip shop.<br />

His grandfather had a shop in Petone, and<br />

his parents ran one in Wellington, while<br />

his son Ben is a chef and also works parttime<br />

at Gourmet Seafoods, along with staff<br />

member John.<br />

Gourmet Seafoods is located in the<br />

Travis Road shopping centre at 251 Travis<br />

Rd. They are open seven days a week, so<br />

try them next time you fancy some tasty<br />

takeaways and personal service.<br />

How to support<br />

healthy weight loss<br />

One of the big reasons we<br />

gain weight especially as we<br />

get older is our metabolism<br />

slows down. Metabolism is<br />

the process by which our<br />

bodies convert what we eat<br />

and drink into energy. That<br />

energy is what allows our<br />

body to operate. With a slower<br />

metabolism we often feel like<br />

eating more leading to more<br />

weight gain and less energy.<br />

If we try to do more exercise<br />

with a slower metabolism<br />

often this has little benefit<br />

as we feel hungrier and eat<br />

more.<br />

GO HEALTHY NZ have recently released<br />

an advanced new weight management<br />

formula “CAPSI-SLIM” that contains<br />

clinically researched ingredients. The first<br />

new ingredient Capsimax ® has been shown<br />

to support energy production, healthy<br />

metabolism as well as Lipolysis the breakdown<br />

of stored fat for energy. The formula<br />

also contains Hydroxycitric Acid or HCA<br />

from Garcinia cambogia. HCA has been<br />

shown to help control the appetite so we feel<br />

like eating less. HCA also helps manage your<br />

stress levels preventing excessive emotional<br />

eating. As well as this it also helps reduce the<br />

amount of fat being stored in the body but<br />

instead helps burn this stored fat for energy.<br />

Green tea extract is another<br />

nutrient in the formula that<br />

can help activate the central<br />

nervous system, which in<br />

turn increases the body’s<br />

metabolic rate, decreases fat<br />

absorption and is a powerful<br />

antioxidant. The next nutrient<br />

is chromium a trace mineral<br />

that is essential to stabilize the<br />

body’s blood sugar levels but<br />

is often lacking in our diet.<br />

Chromium may help reduce<br />

carbohydrate and sugar<br />

cravings while increasing<br />

lean body mass. It has been<br />

shown to stimulate weight<br />

loss in people with obesity. The last nutrient<br />

iodine is lacking in the New Zealand<br />

diet. Sufficient iodine is essential for the<br />

production of thyroid hormones, which<br />

regulate the metabolic energy of the body.<br />

As well as weight gain iodine deficiency can<br />

lead to diseases and reduced life-span.<br />

The Natural Health Advisers at Marshall’s<br />

Health & Natural Therapy are happy to help<br />

you with your weight loss goals. Everyone<br />

is different and we can help you choose the<br />

most suitable supplements for best results.<br />

Modern diet leads to illness!<br />

It’s not what you eat but what you absorb<br />

Two Australian Naturopaths Stephen<br />

and Shane noticed at the end of the 20th<br />

century more and more of their patients<br />

were experiencing gut, bowel and digestive<br />

issues that were often leading to more<br />

serious chronic health conditions. Being<br />

Naturopaths they wanted to find what was<br />

going wrong and began extensive research.<br />

What they found was although their clients<br />

were generally eating good food they were<br />

not obtaining all the nutrients required for<br />

good health from this food. Further research<br />

showed one of the main problems was the<br />

digestive system, “it’s not what you eat but<br />

what you absorb.” Another well-known<br />

problem is the soils the crops are grown in<br />

have been depleted of many trace elements<br />

and other nutrients that are known to be<br />

essential for good health and therefore the<br />

crops and food are also depleted. If we do<br />

not obtain all the nutrients we require the<br />

body will compensate to some degree but<br />

a lack of too many nutrients will eventually<br />

lead to health issues.<br />

Based on this they<br />

developed VITAL<br />

GREENS, now called<br />

VITAL ALL-IN-<br />

ONE, a nutrient dense<br />

powdered formula<br />

that provides superior<br />

absorption as well<br />

as comprehensive<br />

nutrition. They<br />

decided on a<br />

powdered formula<br />

that could be made<br />

as a great tasting drink because liquid<br />

nutrition is the easiest way for the body<br />

to absorb nutrients especially if digestive<br />

issues are present. The formula provides<br />

78 vital ingredients that work together in<br />

synergy optimising each other’s absorption<br />

and benefits. Vital Greens contains a<br />

carefully balanced blend of nutritionally<br />

rich greens, vegetables, fruits, minerals,<br />

vitamins, essential fatty acids, plant and<br />

herbal extracts, superfoods, powerful<br />

antioxidants, probiotics, essential amino<br />

acids, digestive enzymes, fibre plus a<br />

uniquely alkalising pea protein. It provides<br />

superior nutrition to a multivitamin and<br />

just about anyone will benefit from it. It is<br />

designed to provide all the nutrients the<br />

body requires for good health. It is also ideal<br />

for those in poor health, those recovering<br />

from injury or sickness, children, athletes,<br />

poor eaters and the elderly. It is also suitable<br />

for people with dietary restrictions and is<br />

gluten, wheat and dairy free. VITAL ALL-<br />

IN-ONE will help remove toxic waste from<br />

the body while supporting all organs. You’ll<br />

often notice more energy and endurance,<br />

better sleep, a more positive mood,<br />

skin problems improving, less sickness,<br />

improved eyesight and overall better more<br />

optimum health.<br />

the maximum benefits from VITAL ALL-<br />

IN-ONE as well as tastings is available<br />

HOME & HEATING<br />

The<br />

importance<br />

of air quality<br />

Choosing the<br />

right heat pump<br />

for your home<br />

The quality of the air we breathe<br />

affects our health and ability to<br />

perform. We breathe in and out<br />

approximately 20,000 litres of<br />

air every day. It is therefore very<br />

important to ensure good air<br />

quality indoors through adequate<br />

ventilation. Ventilation is the<br />

process of air exchange to provide<br />

the necessary air quality that meets<br />

the needs of the occupants for clean,<br />

fresh air. Low oxygen with high<br />

carbon dioxide causes stuffiness<br />

in the room and occupants can<br />

feel drowsy. Invisible harmful<br />

substances like a high content of<br />

dust and tobacco smoke are harmful<br />

and can cause various diseases. Even<br />

bad smells can cause discomfort<br />

or irritate the nervous system. In<br />

summer, it’s easy to open windows<br />

for cross ventilation, however as<br />

winter approaches, we start to shut<br />

up out houses to trap in the heat and<br />

as a result, air quality can decline.<br />

Ventilation includes both the<br />

exchange of air to the outside as<br />

well as circulation of air within<br />

the building. It is one of the<br />

most important factors for maintaining<br />

acceptable indoor air quality in buildings.<br />

Filtered air supply for summer and filtered<br />

and warmed air in winter creates a healthy<br />

environment in which to live and work. In<br />

case of poor or insufficient air intake from<br />

outside, the oxygen content decreases,<br />

humidity and dustiness levels increase. If<br />

exhaust ventilation is not provided or it is<br />

not effective, polluted air, smells, humidity<br />

and harmful substances are not removed.<br />

To ensure the quality of your air, contact<br />

the experts. Smooth-Air Products can<br />

calculate the required air exchange for<br />

your building requirement.<br />

Smooth-Air offers a wide range<br />

of ventilation equipment, from<br />

air vents to ducting for fans,<br />

for both the commercial and<br />

domestic markets. They have<br />

an extensive range of fans and<br />

ventilation components instore<br />

but they can also provide<br />

innovative solutions tailored to<br />

differing requirements.<br />

You can contact Smooth-Air on<br />

0800 SMOOTH (0800 766684).<br />

Are you struggling with the heat of<br />

Summer or wanting to get organised for<br />

Winter? With the ever changing weather<br />

patterns, heat pumps have the flexibility<br />

of being able to heat and cool which is an<br />

advantage no other appliance can offer. This<br />

represents great value for your investment<br />

as you can use it all year round. The team<br />

at Enviro Master Ltd can help keep you<br />

cool this Summer either at home or work.<br />

Enviro Master supplies, installs and services<br />

all the leading brands including Panasonic,<br />

Fujitsu, Mitsubishi and Daikin. This means<br />

our team can show you which system and<br />

brand will best suit your needs.<br />

With new regulations coming in for<br />

Landlords to provide heating in rentals,<br />

now is a great time to beat the 1st of<br />

July deadline. Inadequate heating and<br />

ventilation can lead to mould growth and<br />

dampness in your property, leading to<br />

costlier maintenance and an unhealthy<br />

living environment. Providing a fixed<br />

heater with a higher heat output and lower<br />

running costs, like a heat pump, will enable<br />

your tenants to heat the area effectively.<br />

It will also discourage them from using<br />

unflued gas heaters which can make a<br />

house damp and mouldy.<br />

It is important to remember, when<br />

selecting an installer, the manufacturer’s<br />

warranty does not cover the installation<br />

and consumers could be responsible for<br />

any repair or damage caused to the system<br />

due to poor installation. Enviro Master’s<br />

five-star installation guarantee ensures<br />

correct installation, and a demonstration<br />

so customers have an understanding on<br />

how it will best meet their needs.<br />

REAL ESTATE<br />

An inspiring lifestyle retreat<br />

869 Purau Port Levy Road, Port Levy<br />

By negotiation – realistic vendor<br />

5-6 bedrooms | 3 bathrooms | 2-3 living rooms | 4 outdoor sheds | 3 bay barn/garage (1.23 hectares approx. Title pending) | Listing Number; 8453<br />

As they say there is no substitute for quality<br />

and this home has that in spades.<br />

North facing, sheltered, and nestled amongst<br />

mature trees and gardens this superbly built<br />

spacious light and airy home of about 337m2<br />

enjoys lovely sea and rural views and is also<br />

very private.<br />

Comprising 5/6 very generous bedrooms,<br />

3 bathrooms including an en suite, and 2/3<br />

living areas. The kitchen and lounge are<br />

enormous, the hallways wide and most of the<br />

rooms open on to covered verandah giving<br />

shelter in Winter and shade in Summer. The<br />

main living area is octagonal in shape and is<br />

huge with a large wood-burner and also opens<br />

onto the verandah and lawn area giving great<br />

indoor outdoor flow.<br />

The farm house style kitchen features plenty<br />

of storage, a Rayburn stove connected to a<br />

wetback and the entire house is centrally<br />

heated with a diesel burner supplying hot<br />

water radiators. Fully insulated throughout<br />

and with double glazed cedar joinery you can<br />

see and feel no expense has been spared on<br />

this build.<br />

The land (1.23 hectares approx. Title pending)<br />

is a mixture of lawns, native plantings a<br />

paddock and 2 very well established orchards.<br />

There are 4 outdoor sheds, a good sized 3 bay<br />

barn/garage, lockable with concrete floor,<br />

3 phase power and toilet and good water<br />

supplies with a spring and deep water bore.<br />

This property gives many options due to its<br />

size, i.e. extended family or Airbnb etc. etc.<br />

and only a 12 minute drive to the Diamond<br />

Harbour ferry giving access to Lyttelton and<br />

the city.<br />

This is the perfect opportunity to have the<br />

lifestyle without having too much to look<br />

after, a chance to be semi self-sufficient and all<br />

this only 45 minutes approx. drive from the<br />

city.<br />

Only approx. 10 years old, to build this now<br />

to this quality would cost well in excess of<br />

the asking price so this is great buying in a<br />

beautiful location.<br />
