Long wait
for safety

principal
• By Jess Gibson
MAIREHAU Primary School’s
principal is still waiting for a
safety report on two “dangerous”
pedestrian crossings used daily by
its pupils.
In September, the Papanui-
Innes Community Board asked
the city council to investigate
the crossings on Innes Rd after
concerns were raised about
motorists failing to stop.
Principal John Bangma said he
is “frustrated” that the school has
heard nothing after six months
and the problem “hasn’t changed.”
The New Zealand Transport
Agency told Nor’West News in
September it had recorded five
crashes at the crossing outside
Mairehau Primary School dating
back to 2002 – one fatal, one
serious, one minor and two noninjury.​
Board deputy chairwoman
Emma Norrish followed up
the issue with the city council
recently and was told staff aim to
provide information for each of
the crossings this month.

from the reporter’s desk
IT WAS fantastic to see members of the Warriors put a smile
on the faces of more than 100 pupils at Bishopdale School last
week.
They gave a KidsCan raincoat with the Warriors logo on the
back to every child at the school to keep them warm and dry as
winter approaches.
Sarah Stewart from KidsCan says the school wanted the visit
to go ahead as planned so the pupils could look forward to it
following last month’s tragic events.
In other school news, we revisit the concerns that at least one
principal has over pedestrian crossings outside his school.
It has been about six months since Nor’west News reported on
the “dangerous” pedestrian crossings near Mairehau Primary
and St Francis of Assisi schools. The principals are still waiting
for a safety report from the city council while pupils continue to
cross the road there every day.

I sought to bring these threads

Cycle route plan worries businesses
• By Jess Gibson
STORE OWNERS on Edgeware
Rd are confused over whether
a proposed cycle route could
lead to parking being removed
outside their stores.
Concerns were raised after a
public consultation document on
Christchurch Northern Corridor
traffic mitigation
was delivered to
shop owners by
the city council
in March.
The proposal
showed the city
council’s plan
David Timbs
to undertake a
study into a cycle
route on the east
and west sides of Edgeware Rd,
running from Springfield Rd to
Packe St.
Peter Timbs Meats owner
David Timbs said when he
looked at the diagram, it seemed
like the cycle route could remove
parking, which would affect foot
traffic and have a major impact
on the business.
Crisp on Edgeware owner
Simon Lau also said the proposal
might lead to car parks being
removed.
But city councillor Mike
Davidson said that is not the
case.
Cr Davidson talked to city
council staff after hearing about
the confusion from businesses
and was told there has been “no
discussion over the removal of
car parks.”
He said he could understand
store owners’ concerns because
of the Papanui Parallel cycleway
upgrades in 2017, which hurt
several businesses after parking
was removed.
But he said that it is too
early to know what will happen
and the study will need to
be done before any options,
including the removal of
parking, are even discussed.

But Mr Timbs said whatever
the outcome of the study, there is
“no way” traffic could go
both ways with car parks,
cycle routes and a footpath on
Edgeware Rd.
There are seven car parks
outside the two buildings leased
on Edgeware Rd for Peter
Timbs Meat’s wholesale and
retail stores.
Although he understands
the study is only a proposal,
Mr Timbs is still gearing up to
oppose any changes that may
happen down the track.

Anniversary
of Nor’West
Brass Band
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
IT WAS over a beer at a busy pub
that Avonhead’s Bill Vail and his
friend Adrian Dalton decided the
north-west of the city needed its
own brass band.
The idea was sparked after Mr
Dalton, a teacher at Burnside
High School, was concerned his
brass students had no local band
to play in.
The two musicians decided
to do something about it and
the Nor’West Brass Band was
formed.
Five years on and the booming
band, based at Rangi Ruru
Girls’ School, has surpassed their
original goals to have 80 band
members over three tiered levels.
In the time it has been
running, it has grown from about
five to 85 members. The band was
set to hold a concert to mark its
five-year anniversary on Sunday,
which featured a performance
of Christchurch Alive!, written
by Mr Vail’s son Dale, who has
received a fellowship with the
Sydney Symphony Orchestra.

Costly security upgrade for casket maker
• By Jess Gibson
A BISHOPDALE coffin club
which provides free caskets to
mothers who have lost their
babies has forked out $2300 for
new security after a burglary.
The Kiwi Coffin Club is
attempting to raise the money
spent on alarms, window bars
and doors at its container on the
Menzshed site on Kendal Ave
through a Givealittle page.
The club makes ‘angel boxes’ –
custom-made caskets for babies
lost to stillbirth, cot death or
miscarriage – which are donated
to Christchurch Women’s
Hospital.
Club founder Donna
Sutherland said insurance will
cover the cost of the equipment
taken when the burglars broke
in through the window.
The items taken included an
air compressor, airbrush guns
and hoses. “They even took my
pink tools and toolbox,” she
said.
Mrs Sutherland started
the Givealittle page a week
after the burglary but had to
extend it after it did not meet
the target.
All money used to fund the
angel boxes is earned through
selling adult-sized, custommade
caskets.​
Mrs Sutherland, who started
Latest Christchurch news at www.star.kiwi
the project in 2016, said she was
“deeply saddened” when the
container was burgled.
She is retired and devotes all
of her time to the coffin club
with four other trustees who
help out at no cost.
One of the trustees,
Kevin Bradshaw, discovered the
container had been broken into
and said he contacted
Mrs Sutherland straight
away.
Mr Bradshaw volunteers
at the Menzshed and acts as
a quality control checker to
ensure the caskets are up to
scratch before they are sold to
customers or donated to the
hospital.

Lovelock garden impresses again
• By Jess Gibson
BRIAN AND Janet Lovelock
have two new garden trophies
to display in their Northwood
home.
The couple took out two
awards at the Fendalton-
Waimairi-Harewood
Community Pride Garden
Awards on Wednesday night.
The ‘most attractive residential
garden’ and ‘community board
choice’ awards add to the list of
accolades they have won in past
gardening competitions.
“It’s such an exciting thing.
You do these gardens for
pleasure, but to get a reward
is just extra special,” said Mrs
Lovelock.
More than 100 awards went
to residents from Fendalton,
Waimari and Harewood at the
awards ceremony.
About 200 people filled the
Russley Golf Club, including
recipients and their guests,
speakers and board members.
The awards acknowledge
community gardens
and celebrate the effort residents
put into them.
There were six special
awards, which went to people
with exceptional gardens in
the community, two of which
were claimed by Mr and Mrs
Lovelock. They have been top
contenders in many gardening
competitions – and also won
seven awards for their garden
at this year’s Christchurch
Beautifying Association summer
garden competition.
They also received premier
gold at the spring gardening
awards from the Canterbury
Horticultural Society in 2017.
“It’s so rewarding. It just
shows how much other people
appreciate what we do,” said Mrs
Lovelock.
Board chairman Sam
MacDonald attended and said
the night went “really well.”
“This is a great annual
event, where our board get the
opportunity to recognise the
hard work of so many people
who make our streets and
communities such nice places to

Still waiting for
school crossing
safety report
•From page 1
Ms Norris said it was unclear
after a six-month wait whether the
city council would provide the full
report.
City council transport
operations manager Steffan
Thomas said staff will meet with
the community board on April 17
to confirm top priority transport
projects.
“Mairehau Primary School
and/or the St Francis of Assisi
School zebra crossings are being
considered. Staff will refine
options to improve the zebra
crossings if funding is allocated to
the project,” he said.
Ms Norris is frustrated
the process is taking so long and
the board will continue chasing
it up, she said. Mr Bangma has
worked at the school for 17 years
and said the problem has got
worse.
He said motorists speed through
the crossings even when the signs
are out before and after school.
“The law is clear that when one
sign is out, regardless of which
side it’s on, that traffic must stop.
We get cars speeding up so they
can get through before the other
sign can be put out,” said Mr
Bangma.

Your Local Views
Rates increase ‘isn’t sustainable’
Fendalton-Waimairi-
Harewood Community
Board chairman and
chartered accountant
Sam MacDonald writes
about concerns over rate
increases
ARE WE being rated out of our
own homes?
I regularly have ratepayers
contact me expressing their
concerns over the rate rises,
and the idea that we will all
eventually be “rated out of our
own homes.” It particularly
worries me for the large fixed
income population across our
community.
It’s appropriate for me to note
this is my personal view and I’m
not speaking on behalf of our
board as I write this.
As an area, we contribute just
over $100 million in rates to the
council each year, so when we
factor in the yearly increases,
this is a large contribution from
us all (whether you own or rent
your home). What do we get for
that?
I want to share with you the
most common questions and
concerns I get locally from
residents: Do we need more
cycleways? What’s happening
with our water? Why did the
town hall cost us millions more
than planned? Why are our
roads still the way they are?
What would you add to
that list? Here’s mine: In my
household, my rates now cost
more than the cost of my power
bill, what more am I getting for
that?
The council draft Annual
Plan has been out for public
submissions over the past
several weeks. This has been an
opportunity for us all to have a
say and to tell councillors and
the mayor what we think the
priorities are in our city, whether
that be local projects or the rates
charged to us all.
As you will recall, the council
10-year Long Term Plan was
set last year, which on current
projections would mean our
rates will increase by 50 per cent
over this period.
That isn’t sustainable and
nowhere near
the annual inflation increase.
Whether it be deferring
spending money on some
new projects, getting greater
operational efficiency within
the council or being as bold as
imposing a rates increase cap, it’s
clear something has to change.
I hope you are able
to follow the city council debate
and amendments over the
Annual Plan in the coming
weeks, I know I will be.

City2Surf
Iconic event brings community together
The Kadodo Western African band get the crowd warmed up before the start, including Alice Egan, 14, Isabelle O’Carroll, 15, and
Bing Lin.
• By Julia Evans
“THIS YEAR was special.”
Star Media regional manager
Steve McCaughan said this year’s
45th fun run was one of the most
poignant City2Surf events there
has been.
Thousands of Cantabrians
turned out, entries were well
up on 2018, with a surge of last
minute entries at the end of the
week.
Had it been any closer to the
tragic terror attack of March 15
that claimed 50 lives, Mr
McCaughan said the City2Surf
would not have gone ahead.
Instead it was a chance to bring
people together to have a positive
distraction through the adversity,
he said.
“It felt like the first step that
Cantabrians could take in the
healing process and moving back
to some normality . . . we needed
this,” he said.
“It brought people together
to share in a community activity
with the benefit of some physical
activity.”
There was also an increase in
the number of small groups, with
more people running in twos,
threes and fours than usual, Mr
McCaughan said.
“People were getting together
and saying let’s do this.”
This year’s supporting charity
was the Canterbury Charity
Hospital Trust, which is currently
offering free counselling following
the Christchurch shootings.
Maori health provider He
Waka Tapu had 1200 people running,
jogging and walking under
its banner.
The major prize, return flights
to Singapore with Singapore
Airlines, was won by one of its
team.
“There was a strong sense of elation
at the finish line, more so than
usual,” Mr McCaughan said.
“People from almost every part
of the community came over the
line as one. It was inclusive, which
is a value that New Zealanders
have embraced.”

Proposed
Aquatic
Thrill Ride
Summer ‘19
Our biggest development yet...
We’re pumped! We have
resource consent to build
five new thermal pools and
a new aquatic thrill ride.
The development will cost
$4.5 million and is set to
open in late 2019.
Best of all, we’ve worked
hard to make the new
additions environmentally
sustainable.
Proposed
Cascade
Pools
Our newest thrill
The new 13.5 metre high slide will attach
to our existing hydroslide tower above the
SuperBowl flume.
We’re yet to name the slide, but it will be
a rush. Riders will shoot down a winding
hydroslide in 2-person tubes, before going
down a steep drop that propels them
up a near-vertical wall for a moment of
weightlessness, before zooming back down
and onto the slide’s finish.
Five new pools
Five new pools will sit among river boulder
terraces and native gardens next to the
Rainbow Pools. They’ll be linked by cascading
water over the rocks – a peaceful place
to relax and soak while enjoying the water
sounds surrounding you.
The bottom pool will have beach-style
access making it easy for everyone to use.
Environmentally
sustainable
Half of the energy required to run the
new pools and slide will come from a heat
transfer unit that will utilise energy which is
a bi-product of our electricity generator.
The pools are designed to be super water
efficient with no holding tanks. That was
important to us – we’ve worked hard to save
58,000,000 litres of thermal water a year in
recent times.
We are also pioneering new construction
techniques so the pools’ foundation will sit
above ground and not damage tree roots
below.
Timeframe
Construction is underway and
we will be open Summer 2019!

Burnside High golfer
scores top junior award
BURNSIDE HIGH School’s
Juliana Hung was named junior
sportswoman of the year at the
Canterbury Sports Awards on
Friday night.
Hung, 17, was recognised for a
spectacular 2018, with highlights
which included representing New
Zealand at the Queen Sirikit Cup
and winning the New Zealand
stroke play title.
She recently finished 10th at this
year’s stroke play tournament at
the Christchurch club.
The Russley member also
represented New Zealand at
the Buenos Aires 2018 Olympic
Youth Games. In November,
Hung helped guide Canterbury
to second at the NZ Toro
Interprovincial.
Hung was in a fine class of
finalists named for the junior
sportswoman award. The others
were New Zealand under-17
footballer Gabrielle Rennie,
Canterbury rugby rep Grace
Brooker, junior international
triathlete Ari Graham and New
Zealand junior track cycling rep
Annamarie Lipp.
ST ANDREW’S College
basketballers Samuel
Jenkins and Mac Stodart
will join Rangi Ruru
Girls’ School’s Ashlee
Strawbridge at a national
junior selection camp this
month.
Samuel and Mac have
been selected for the New
Zealand men’s under-19
camp, while Ashlee will
push her case for the
under-19 women’s team.
Three Christchurch
students were also named
in the New Zealand men’s
under-17 camp team –
Hunter Adam and Tanae
Lavery from St Thomas
of Canterbury College
and Gregory Rodger from
Shirley Boys’ High School.
A star coaching line-up
will work with the players
at the camp. Head coaches
Pero Cameron, Daryl
Cartwright, and US-based
coaches Aaron Fearne and
Hernando Planells, will
put these players through
their paces from April
23-27 at Pulman Arena in
Auckland.

HONOURED: Juliana Hung was named junior

Big chance for St Andrew’s,

teams, can only be as

that are tasked with the
job.
“These four coaches
know what it takes to
create winning teams,
foster strong cultures, and
get the best from their
players.
“Having discussed
where we see New Zealand
basketball heading,
all these coaches have
brought into the idea of
creating a great culture
and style of play that is
taught throughout all
our teams. These players
will be experiencing
a top, internationallycompetitive

environment,” said Mr
King.

on April 26. Mr King says
this part of the camp will
be attended by a number
of US college coaches.
He also hinted
that Basketball New
Zealand may conduct a
Tall Ferns camp at the
same time as the selection
camp.
Mr King said if he can
make it happen, he will
look to get the junior
players court-side to see
their senior role-models in
action.
“These camps take on
added significance if we
can have the Tall Ferns
or Tall Blacks there. We
will announce more on
this later but, yes, there’s a
chance the girls will get to
see their heroes in action,”
he said.

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

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

HOME & HEATING
Bathroom
Ventilation
The extraction of air from the bathroom
should be a priority for all houses and
commercial buildings.
Bathrooms can generate a large quantity
of steam and odours. It is important this
compromised air does not circulate around
the house.
Bathroom odours can be unpleasant,
especially when near living, sleeping or
working areas.
The moisture generated by showers and
baths can be damaging to your home and
furnishings and be a major contribution
to condensation. Damp houses are not a
healthy environment for anyone to live in,
especially for children or other vulnerable
people.
By extracting air from the bathroom to
outside, warmer air from inside the house
will move in to the bathroom. Whereas
opening a window can draw cold air into
the bathroom and blow the smelly, moisture
laden bathroom air into the house.
Modern houses are built to be very
airtight and require mechanical ventilation
such as extraction fans or heat exchanger
systems. Although older houses can be
draughty, the air often flows in the wrong
direction. Therefore, they also usually
require mechanical ventilation to keep the
air quality higher.
The quality of the air we breathe affects
our health and ability to perform. We
breathe in and out approximately 20,000
litres of air every day. It is therefore very
important to ensure good air quality
indoors through adequate ventilation.
To ensure the quality of your air, contact
the experts. Smooth-Air Products can
calculate the required extraction for your
bathrooms, and look into air exchange
for your whole building. Smooth-
Air offers a wide range of ventilation
equipment, from air vents to ducting
for fans, for both the commercial
and domestic markets. They have an
extensive range of fans and ventilation
components in-store but they can also
provide innovative solutions tailored
to differing requirements. You can
contact Smooth-Air on 0800 SMOOTH
(0800 766684).
Choosing the
right heat pump
for your home
Are you struggling with the heat of
Summer or wanting to get organised for

patterns, heat pumps have the flexibility
of being able to heat and cool which is an
advantage no other appliance can offer. This
represents great value for your investment
as you can use it all year round. The team
at Enviro Master Ltd can help keep you
cool this Summer either at home or work.
Enviro Master supplies, installs and services
all the leading brands including Panasonic,
Fujitsu, Mitsubishi and Daikin. This means
our team can show you which system and
brand will best suit your needs.
With new regulations coming in for
Landlords to provide heating in rentals,
now is a great time to beat the 1st of
July deadline. Inadequate heating and
ventilation can lead to mould growth and
dampness in your property, leading to
costlier maintenance and an unhealthy
living environment. Providing a fixed
heater with a higher heat output and lower
running costs, like a heat pump, will enable
your tenants to heat the area effectively.
It will also discourage them from using
unflued gas heaters which can make a
house damp and mouldy.
It is important to remember, when
selecting an installer, the manufacturer’s
warranty does not cover the installation
and consumers could be responsible for
any repair or damage caused to the system
due to poor installation. Enviro Master’s
five-star installation guarantee ensures
correct installation, and a demonstration
so customers have an understanding on
how it will best meet their needs.
For a free in home consultation, call
Enviro Master on 366 0525 or visit our
showroom at 41A Shakespeare Rd,
Waltham, Christchurch.

also make sure you’re aware of all costs, giving you the certainty that
there won’t be any unexpected surprises.

to worry about maintenance or upkeep. Simply choose your new home and make it
your own. You can even bring along your pet.
Summerset at Wigram and Summerset at Casebrook have brand new homes
available now and our Summerset at Avonhead village is pre-selling* homes that
will be ready to move into in June!
Come along to our Open Weekend and find the home that’s right for you. We will take
you through village plans and pricing, and answer any questions you may have.
If you would like to get some information prior, you can make an appointment or call
in and visit us any time - we are open 7 days.
