The Shirley Boys’ and Avonside Girls’ High head students and the rest of their schoolmates were welcomed to their new shared site at QE II Park last week. SBHS students had their first day of class on Friday and AGHS was set to start yesterday after staff and senior prefects from both schools were officially welcomed onto the site with a pōwhiri last Monday. Liam said there has been a real buzz among SBHS students over the move. •Turn to page 8 SUPER PRICES: 30’s only $14.90 save $15.00 60’s only $26.90 save $23.00 120’s only $49.90 save $49.90 MAIL ORDER AVAILABLE PROVEN FORMULA Bringing You The Best In Natural Health MARSHALLS HEALTH & NATURAL THERAPY CONSULTING - PRESCRIBING - DISPENSING - MANUFACTURING MEDICAL HERBALISTS 101 SEAVIEW ROAD, NEW BRIGHTON | PHONE 388 5757 Opposition increases over plan to change Brighton mall, Marine Pde • By Matt Slaughter NOT EVERYONE is happy with the plan to upgrade Marine Pde and parts of New Brighton mall. The New Brighton Residents Association and newly-formed Cycle Action New Brighton say the city council’s plan does not represent what residents want and will be unsafe for pedestrians and cyclists. PegasusPost revealed the planned changes last month, which received support from Coastal Ward city councillor David East and the New Brighton Business and Landowners Association. The $4.3 million plan will create 13 new car parks on Marine Pde, widen footpaths, move bus stops, decrease the speed limit to 30km/h between Beresford and Hawke Sts and establish new artwork and native plants near the mall. Residents association organiser Brian Donovan said he is not convinced the majority of residents are in favour of Marine Pde, between Beresford and Hawke Sts, remaining open to traffic or the plan to create 13 new car parks.
