Anzac<br />

services<br />

to go<br />

ahead<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

“ANZAC DAY is an absolute<br />

representation of our freedom and<br />

it must go ahead.”<br />

That is the message from former<br />

city councillor Bob Shearing who<br />

has been organising the Anzac<br />

Day service at Hornby Primary<br />

School for about 20 years.<br />

Safety concerns following the<br />

March 15 terror attack led to the<br />

cancellation of some Anzac Day<br />

services, following advice from<br />

police.<br />

Police recently made requests<br />

for smaller services to be cancelled<br />

or consolidated to allow<br />

for police to provide appropriate<br />

support at large gatherings.<br />

But, Mr Shearing said cancelling<br />

the service would have meant<br />

the shooter had won.<br />

“To be told we can’t have<br />

them for the act of some idiot,<br />

it is just absolutely wrong,” Mr<br />

Shearing said. His views have<br />

been backed by past Templeton<br />

Residents’ Association president<br />

and member John Rae, Halswell<br />

Residents’ Association secretary<br />

David Hawke and Greater Hornby<br />

Residents’ Association member<br />

Mark Peters.<br />

DON’T MEDDLE with Anzac Day.<br />

That’s the loud and clear message from<br />

organisers of services in the western suburbs<br />

(see page 1).<br />

Police have asked organisers of Anzac<br />

Day services to consider if they need to go<br />

ahead or if they can be merged.<br />

I can see the reasoning. Police have only so much resource.<br />

Events where there are reasonable amounts of people need to<br />

have a police presence, given the March 15 tragedy.<br />

But it is also good to see some tough talking from those<br />

involved in Anzac Day like Bob Shearing who has been organising<br />

the service at Hornby Primary School for 20 years.<br />

As Bob says cancelling the service would mean the terrorist<br />

had won. And that just wouldn’t be right.<br />

Bid for free swims not likely<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

HORNBY RESIDENTS bid to<br />

have free access to nearby pools,<br />

as a result of the ongoing delays<br />

with the suburb’s mega-centre,<br />

is unlikely to be granted.<br />

Greater Hornby Residents’<br />

Association member Alison<br />

Murray is calling for residents<br />

to be able to swim for free at city<br />

council pools until the Hornby<br />

Library, Customer<br />

Services<br />

and South<br />

West Leisure<br />

Centre is built.<br />

But city<br />

council head<br />

of recreation,<br />

Ross Houliston<br />

sports and<br />

events Nigel<br />

Cox said it<br />

has no plans to provide free<br />

access for Hornby residents to<br />

swimming pools.<br />

“Our priority is having the<br />

new facility open for the growing<br />

south-west community by<br />

late 2022,” he said.<br />

Mrs Murray said she has dealt<br />

with breast cancer and exercise<br />

through swimming was recommended.<br />

But she said the cost of<br />

petrol to travel from Hornby<br />

to Pioneer Recreation & Sport<br />

Centre and Graham Condon<br />

Recreation and Sports Centre<br />

was too high.<br />

The suburb has been without a<br />

city council swimming pool for<br />

about 13 years after it was closed<br />

in 2006 and demolished in 2007.<br />

An indoor pool for the southwest<br />

of the city was first proposed<br />

in the city council’s 2006<br />

Aquatic Facilities Plan.<br />

Mrs Murray’s idea has been<br />

backed by fellow member Mark<br />

Peters, who said it was quite<br />

a novel approach to have free<br />

concession tickets for residents,<br />

given the delays to the Hornby<br />

mega-facility.<br />

“It is more a case of giving<br />

Hornby residents the ability to<br />

have access free of charge due to<br />

the fact they are having to travel<br />

to get there and the inconvenience<br />

of having the cost as well,”<br />

he said.<br />

But not everyone is sure if it<br />

will be a viable option.<br />

Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton<br />

Community Board chairman<br />

Mike Mora said he would like<br />

to see Hornby residents with a<br />

green prescription to be able to<br />

get free access.<br />

A green prescription is written<br />

advice from a health professional<br />

for a person to be active<br />

or improve their diet.<br />

Mr Mora said while he was<br />

unsure whether it will be a<br />

feasible option, he will put the<br />

idea forward to the community<br />

board.<br />

But Mrs Murray said it was<br />

her intention for all Hornby<br />

residents to receive free access<br />

to pools.​<br />

The association’s treasurer<br />

COSTS: A<br />

suggestion has<br />

been made for<br />

Hornby residents<br />

to have free<br />

access to city<br />

council swimming<br />

pools until the<br />

Hornby Library,<br />

Customer Services<br />

and South West<br />

Leisure Centre is<br />

built at Kyle Park.<br />

Ross Houliston said he thought<br />

the cost of travelling to Pioneer<br />

and Graham Condon was<br />

comparable to the using some of<br />

the smaller pools near Hornby.<br />

He said he did not think it was<br />

any more expensive for residents<br />

to go to the Canterbury Swim<br />

School in Yaldhurst or Propeller<br />

Swim School in Wigram.<br />

“If they started subsidising<br />

people like that it could lead to<br />

all sorts of problems all over<br />

the city. Other people will be<br />

wanting the same,” he said.<br />

But Mrs Murray said the<br />

Canterbury Swim School’s<br />

pool hours were more limited<br />

and she could get a cheaper<br />

concession at city council pool.<br />

She had not considered<br />

the Propeller Swim School’s<br />

options.<br />

Hitting the runway at The Hub<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

SIX RESIDENTS have been<br />

recognised for making a<br />

difference to the community<br />

in a fashion show celebrating<br />

Hornby.<br />

The Hub Hornby ran its first<br />

fashion show, which saw six<br />

Hornby<br />

residents<br />

receive a “top<br />

to toe” $1000<br />

makeover<br />

styled by the<br />

mall’s fashion<br />

stylist Vicki<br />

McMillan.<br />

The<br />

Jason Marsden<br />

residents<br />

nominated<br />

by the<br />

community to star in the show<br />

were ​June Foster Campbell, Matt<br />

Voice, Mandy Wilson, Glenda<br />

Hardie, Sheavoynne Mouat and<br />

Nicola Asmussen.<br />

They were nominated for<br />

their service to the Hornby<br />

community, their<br />

commitment to family and for<br />

volunteering their time to help<br />

others.<br />

The Hub Hornby centre<br />

manager Jason Marsden said it<br />

was a fantastic evening.<br />

“The key thing that is never<br />

going to come across in video<br />

and photos was the atmosphere.<br />

I think everyone was blown away<br />

by it,” he said.<br />

A crowd of about 400 people<br />

were drawn to the free fashion<br />

show which featured about 80-<br />

100 men, women and children as<br />

models.<br />

It showcased about 10 of the<br />

mall’s fashion stores.<br />

“It has started to put us on<br />

the map as a serious fashion<br />

site so that is what it is all<br />

about as well,” Mr Marsden<br />

said.<br />

Instead of using professional<br />

models, participating retailers<br />

Mr Marsden said the six<br />

residents nominated for the<br />

makeovers had a great time and<br />

thinks the fashion show will<br />

become an annual event.<br />

Parking restrictions mooted<br />

• By Jess Gibson<br />

PARKING restrictions are being<br />

considered on an upmarket<br />

street near Russley Golf Club.<br />

Residents believe vehicles have<br />

only recently started using the<br />

all-day parking on both sides of<br />

Stableford Green because of its<br />

close proximity to the airport.<br />

Resident<br />

Trevor Keeley<br />

said he thinks<br />

it is because<br />

Thomas<br />

When parks<br />

are full, the<br />

8m wide street<br />

becomes<br />

almost as narrow as a single<br />

lane, which has caused safety<br />

concerns.<br />

A letter to the Fendalton-<br />

Waimairi-Harewood<br />

Community Board addressing<br />

the issue was signed by residents<br />

of 17 homes and the golf club.<br />

City council manager<br />

transport operations Steffan<br />

Thomas said staff are now<br />

investigating the issue.<br />

As the entrance to the golf<br />

club is on Stableford Green, the<br />

street is heavily used by vehicles,<br />

including large trucks which<br />

make deliveries to the club and<br />

rubbish trucks.<br />

Cars enter at speed when<br />

they come in from the 60km/h<br />

Memorial Ave.<br />

Resident Shirley O’Leary said<br />

she is amazed at the danger on<br />

her street when vehicles park on<br />

both sides.<br />

In a tiny little side street it’s just<br />

ridiculous,” said Mrs O’Leary<br />

Residents have also asked<br />

the city council to check the<br />

distance between the yellow<br />

lines on Memorial Ave and the<br />

entrance of Stableford Green,<br />

as it is unsafe to “manoeuvre”<br />

around parked vehicles and into<br />

the street.<br />

Community board chairman<br />

CONGESTION:<br />

The city council<br />

is considering<br />

parking restrictions<br />

on Stableford<br />

Green after<br />

residents raised<br />

concerns over a<br />

recent influx of<br />

vehicles parking on<br />

both sides of the<br />

street.<br />

Sam MacDonald said he is<br />

hopeful that the impacted<br />

residents can get a “timely<br />

resolution.”<br />

“It’s great that all of the<br />

residents concerned have got<br />

together and raised this issue,”<br />

said Mr MacDonald.<br />

Mr Thomas said staff will<br />

aim to get a decision in June<br />

which will then go out for public<br />

Junior<br />

council wins<br />

national<br />

recognition<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

A JUNIOR council formed in<br />

Halswell to engage young people<br />

in politics has been recognised<br />

at a national community board<br />

conference.<br />

The Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton<br />

Community Board won the<br />

executive best practice award for<br />

excellence in engaging with your<br />

community at the New Zealand<br />

Community Boards Conference.<br />

In 2017, city councillor Anne<br />

Galloway established the Halswell<br />

Junior Council, which is made<br />

up of year 5-8 pupils from Seven<br />

Oaks School, Oaklands School<br />

and Aidanfield Christian School.<br />

The project began as a means<br />

to teach young people civics and<br />

participation in local politics.<br />

The junior council has done<br />

a number of projects including<br />

addressing safety outside<br />

Aidanfield School where they have<br />

suggested alternative routes, a<br />

neighbouring park for parents to<br />

park at and creating a walkway to<br />

the school.<br />

They made a deputation to the<br />

board on traffic and safety and ran<br />

a clean-up of Westlake Park.<br />

Your Local Views<br />

Readers respond to the<br />

<strong>Western</strong> <strong>News</strong> article on<br />

dogs being let off the lead<br />

in areas at the Halswell<br />

Quarry where they are<br />

supposed to be leashed at<br />

all times<br />

Gary Knight - Given the<br />

vast expanse of the Halswell<br />

Quarry dog exercise area, it is<br />

unnecessary to allow dogs to<br />

be unleashed at any other point<br />

of the quarry park facility. The<br />

often steep incline, slippery<br />

surface and loose gravel of the<br />

quarry rim track makes for<br />

careful walking at all times. It<br />

is essential, therefore, that dogs<br />

are restrained through this<br />

walk to avoid them rushing at<br />

or encountering walkers often<br />

resultant in slips, falls and<br />

possible injury throughout this<br />

terrain. The responsible attitude<br />

of dog owners in adhering to this<br />

is paramount, to alleviate the<br />

continuous need for city council<br />

monitoring to ensure this.<br />

Don Robertson - When<br />

my older boy was young, we<br />

used to go to the quarry park<br />

regularly. We’d take him and<br />

his friends around the quarry<br />

rim track, have a picnic and<br />

so on. We also went to several<br />

of the planting days there and<br />

enjoyed seeing the trees we<br />

helped plant growing. Over the<br />

summer I took my youngest<br />

son – a two-year-old – to the<br />

ISSUES: Readers respond to the <strong>Western</strong> <strong>News</strong> article on dogs being let off the lead in areas at<br />

the Halswell Quarry where they are supposed to be leashed at all times.<br />

quarry park for a walk around<br />

the quarry rim track and we<br />

were going to have a picnic in<br />

the picnic area. Unfortunately,<br />

we had about a dozen<br />

dogs running up to us<br />

and jumping about us<br />

in the hour or so we<br />

spent there. As soon as<br />

one dog left, another<br />

one came up. As we<br />

gave up and started<br />

heading for home, I<br />

said to one owner that<br />

dogs should be on a lead in that<br />

area of the park. He said nobody<br />

cared what I thought. We haven’t<br />

been back. Irresponsible owners<br />

have always been a problem, but<br />

lately, it has been ridiculous. I<br />

did complain to the city council,<br />

and was told there are only<br />

two animal control officers<br />

covering Christchurch - from<br />

the Waimakariri to<br />

Akaroa - and there was<br />

nothing that could be<br />

done. (Abridged).<br />

Readers respond<br />

to the article<br />

on a resource<br />

application being<br />

made to the city<br />

council to open an eight<br />

cinema complex in Wigram<br />

Margaret Taylor - I would<br />

love to have a cinema at Wigram<br />

as its my local shopping centre, it<br />

certainly would pull the people<br />

in as nothing in Hornby.<br />

Barbara Tyson - I have lived<br />

in Wigram for the past 20-odd<br />

years and have seen so many<br />

changes. It’s great. I totally agree<br />

with the possibility of a cinema<br />

being built. It will also help the<br />

new businesses that have started<br />

up at The Landing.<br />

Nicki Howe - Well as a<br />

resident on The Runway this is<br />

the first we had heard about it.<br />

Do we want an eight cinema<br />

complex? No is my answer to<br />

this, so not all locals are happy<br />

or it seems informed. Eighteen<br />

months ago, we made a massive<br />

decision to sell our family<br />

home of 18 years and move<br />

to the quiet newly developed<br />

area of Wigram. We love the<br />

quaintness of the area, if it was<br />

to be one or two small cinemas<br />

like The Colombo or Hollywood<br />

in Sumner, then yes, okay but<br />

eight, seriously this is not the<br />

area for this, take it back to<br />

Hornby’s main centre, where<br />

the general public have easy<br />

access to this facility. This will<br />

bring more traffic into the area<br />

making the main roads in and<br />

out of The Landing more busy,<br />

idiots speeding up and down<br />

the straight stretches of road,<br />

littering because people who<br />

don’t live here give a damn,<br />

vandals, home robberies will<br />

increase and the list goes on. We<br />

really think the city council and<br />

Ngai Tahu have to think about<br />

the big picture and effect it will<br />

have on the local residents and<br />

not just their pockets. We have<br />

paid premium prices to own<br />

homes in this subdivision with<br />

many covenant restrictions<br />

imposed on us so why should<br />

such a large development be<br />

allowed. Anyway I guess at the<br />

end of the day our say doesn’t<br />

matter, it will happen no matter<br />

what and we will have to live<br />

with it. All be it when we say I<br />

told you so. Saddened if this goes<br />

ahead.<br />

great idea, about time.<br />

ADVERTORIAL<br />

Independence in a friendly community<br />

Lorraine stands happily beside her treasured painting, alongside Margaret Stoddart Sales Advisor Michelle Van der Park.<br />

Lorraine Quinn has quality<br />

art works adorning the walls<br />

of her serviced apartment at<br />

Ryman Healthcare’s Margaret<br />

Stoddart Retirement Village<br />

and loves the spaces both<br />

within her home and in the<br />

village grounds.<br />

The art is very tting<br />

with the Margaret Stoddart<br />

village, given that the village<br />

namesake was a well-known<br />

water colourist and painter.<br />

Lorraine moved to Margaret<br />

Stoddart in December 2018<br />

and loves the fact the village<br />

is within a short distance of<br />

Hagley Park and its walks.<br />

Lorraine and other residents<br />

make good use of the village<br />

facilities, which include a bar,<br />

dining room and hair salon.<br />

The boutique village is close<br />

to the many amenities that<br />

Riccarton and the central city<br />

provide. To balance this, on<br />

Bartlett Street it is tucked away<br />

from the hustle and bustle of<br />

city life.<br />

The village provides<br />

independent living in<br />

townhouses, assisted living in<br />

serviced apartments, and the<br />

very best of resthome care.<br />

Lorraine’s rst contact was<br />

when both her parents moved<br />

to Margaret Stoddart in the<br />

early 2000s.<br />

She says it retains a strong<br />

community of friendly staff<br />

and residents. She has known<br />

some of the residents since her<br />

school years and others were<br />

with her at her previous village.<br />

She still has a wide network of<br />

friends outside the village.<br />

Lorraine likes to visit her<br />

daughter and son-in-law<br />

at their home once a week.<br />

She also goes further aeld,<br />

visiting a friend at Tahunanui<br />

in Nelson at least two times<br />

a year.<br />

Lorraine likes the security<br />

and feeling of home her<br />

serviced apartment offers.<br />

She has direct access to both<br />

the inside of the village and<br />

out into an inner courtyard<br />

that features the lovely<br />

village gardens.<br />

The staff have been<br />

accommodating in terms of<br />

her meals as she is often “out<br />

and about” during the day, and<br />

thus happy that the kitchen<br />

can give her an option to eat<br />

later in the evening. She likes<br />

to drive to her daughter’s<br />

place for a family meal every<br />

Sunday and to keep in contact<br />

with other members of her<br />

family in Christchurch. She<br />

also plans to use the bus<br />

for quick trips into the city,<br />

given there is a bus stop near<br />

to the village gates. There<br />

are also transport services<br />

available at the village for<br />

resident outings.<br />

The art displayed in<br />

Lorraine’s home is not only<br />

beautiful but also reminds<br />

her of the time she ran an<br />

art gallery in Akaroa. She is<br />

even featured in a Christine<br />

King painting from 1994. The<br />

scene reects a French festival<br />

in Akaroa.<br />

But the work she is most<br />

proud to have purchased is<br />

a commissioned work of the<br />

Ōnawe Peninsula, located near<br />

Duvauchelle. The beautiful<br />

Banks Peninsula painting is by<br />

Nathanael Provis.<br />

Lorraine originally ordered<br />

the work to enable her to give<br />

it to a charity ball auction on<br />

behalf of Akaroa Hospital.<br />

About halfway through the<br />

auction she changed her mind<br />

and bought it back herself.<br />

“When I got in here (to<br />

Margaret Stoddart) I was<br />

mindful of the painting. That<br />

wall is the absolute perfect<br />

place for it.”<br />

Michelle Van der Park says<br />

the village is conveniently<br />

located close to Hagley Park,<br />

Riccarton Mall and the city.<br />

The serviced apartments<br />

provide the option for those<br />

who would like to remain<br />

independent yet would benet<br />

from some help with meals<br />

and housekeeping.<br />

Serviced apartment<br />

available now!<br />

Priced at $295,000<br />
