Car park restrictions set to ease<br />
congestion at Nunweek Park<br />
• By Jess Gibson<br />
Kate Trolove<br />
A SIX-MONTH parking<br />
struggle for users of Harewood’s<br />
Nunweek Park is over.<br />
The Fendalton-Waimairi-<br />
Harewood Community Board<br />
has approved 120min parking<br />
restrictions on all 152 spaces in<br />
the car park off Wooldridge Rd,<br />
which are currently being used<br />
all day by some employees of<br />
nearby businesses.<br />
The Canterbury<br />
Hockey<br />
Association<br />
approached the<br />
community<br />
board about a<br />
“considerable<br />
shortage”<br />
of parks for<br />
hockey players<br />
and other users of the park.<br />
In December, no-stopping<br />
restrictions and a flush median<br />
were installed on Wooldridge Rd<br />
outside the entrance to the car<br />
park after the road became more<br />
heavily used and safety concerns<br />
were raised.<br />
As a result, business employees<br />
who previously used the onstreet<br />
parking on Wooldridge Rd<br />
began using the Nunweek Park<br />
car park.<br />
The association recorded the<br />
number plates of cars using the<br />
car parks for two weeks after<br />
PACKED: The Canterbury Hockey Association recorded the number plates of cars using the car parks and found that 70 to 80 per<br />
cent of the parks were taken up all day<br />
PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER<br />
changes were made and found<br />
between 70-80 per cent of the<br />
parks were taken up all day.<br />
This was during times when no<br />
events or organised recreational<br />
activities took place at Nunweek<br />
Park.<br />
Canterbury Hockey Association<br />
representative manager Kate<br />
Trolove said the enforcement of<br />
two-hour parking restrictions<br />
was “fantastic.”<br />
“Now, people won’t struggle to<br />
find a car park. People can drop<br />
their kids off safely, which is a<br />
big thing for us as we had kids<br />
trying to run or get into the car<br />
park around cars and buses,” Ms<br />
Trolove said.<br />

A GOOD election battle is looming in the<br />
eastern suburbs (see page 5).<br />
Phil Mauger is taking on the incumbent<br />
Glenn Livingstone in the Burwood Ward.<br />
It will be a tough campaign for both.<br />
Mauger heads Mauger Construction Ltd,<br />
a company which spans three generations and came out of the<br />
original family business, a service station in North Beach.<br />
Livingstone will no doubt try to exploit the fact Mauger no<br />
longer lives in the eastern suburbs.<br />
But the 61-year-old is adamant this won’t be an Achilles heel.<br />
He can push on the council table for improvements to the ward<br />
from anywhere, he says.<br />
Keeping rates in check by stopping unnecessary council overspending<br />
looks like being his key platform.<br />
Let the battle begin.<br />

Designs for community centre revealed<br />
ST ALBANS residents can<br />
expect to see a new $3.1 million<br />
community centre by next year.<br />
Final designs for the building<br />
have been revealed, with construction<br />
likely to begin at the<br />
site of the old community centre<br />
on Colombo St in a few months.<br />
The<br />
single-storey<br />
building will<br />
have modern<br />
timber and a<br />
glass facade<br />
with 400 sq m<br />
of floor space,<br />
Emma<br />
Twaddell<br />
including a<br />
hall with a<br />
stage, three<br />
meeting rooms, an office and a<br />
kitchen.<br />
Outdoors, there will be a deck<br />
and sufficient off-street parking.<br />
The designs have been<br />
approved by Papanui-Innes<br />
Community Board members<br />
and community representatives<br />
from groups including the St<br />
Albans Residents Association<br />
and the local business<br />
association.<br />
The original St Albans Community<br />
Centre was demolished<br />
after being severely damaged in<br />
the earthquakes.<br />
A transitional community<br />
centre provided by Lions Clubs<br />
International Foundation operated<br />
at the Colombo St site from<br />
2012 until last year when it was<br />
moved to MacFarlane Park to be<br />
managed by the Shirley Community<br />
Trust.<br />
Since then, the St Albans<br />
Community Centre has<br />
operated from the St Albans<br />
Tennis Club building in Dover<br />
St, run by the St Albans’ Residents<br />
Association.<br />
Chairwoman Emma Twaddell<br />
said the association is keen to<br />
promote the interests of the diverse<br />
St Albans community and<br />
several local groups are looking<br />
forward to using the new building.<br />
“The need to relocate to temporary,<br />
smaller premises meant<br />
a number of groups had to find<br />
other facilities but most have<br />
indicated their wish to come<br />
back. Our current groups such<br />
as Cranford Pippins, a Steady as<br />
you Go Fall Prevention exercise<br />
group, yoga sessions and youth<br />
theatre groups are all looking<br />
forward to the new centre,” Ms<br />
Twaddell said.<br />
“There will be more activities<br />
FACILITIES:<br />
The inside<br />
of the<br />
400 sq m<br />
St Albans<br />
Community<br />
Centre will<br />
include a<br />
hall, two<br />
meeting<br />
rooms an<br />
office and a<br />
kitchen. <br />
available in the new building<br />
which will facilitate a vibrant<br />
and healthy community.”<br />
The detailed design is being<br />
finalised before the city council<br />
apply for building and resource<br />
consents. Once these are<br />
granted, a tendering process<br />
will be carried out before<br />
construction begins.<br />

Car park<br />
struggles at<br />
Nunweek Park<br />
set to ease<br />
•From page 1<br />
She said the car park can now<br />
be filled with members or parents<br />
during the current hockey season.<br />
“On Mondays, Tuesdays,<br />
Wednesdays and Fridays we have<br />
competitions starting at 1.30pm<br />
that run through to the last training<br />
around 9pm,” Ms Trolove<br />
said.<br />
City councillor Aaron Keown<br />
voted against the decision at the<br />
community board meeting.<br />
Cr Keown asked about the<br />
possibility of leaving some parks<br />
unrestricted to prevent parking<br />
struggles from being shifted<br />
elsewhere.<br />
But city council staff said saving<br />
some of the all-day parks for nonrecreational<br />
use was not an option.<br />
This is because it would not<br />
be consistent with the Reserves<br />
Act, which states that a car park<br />
on a recreation reserve is for the<br />
benefit of the park users.<br />
Community board chairman<br />
Sam MacDonald said while Cr<br />
Keown’s concerns were understandable,<br />
the community board<br />
worked through the potential<br />
problem and “recognised there<br />
was still a lot of on-street parking<br />
available.”<br />
Teething problems at new campus<br />
• By Matt Slaughter<br />
OVERCROWDING at the<br />
Shirley Boys’ and Avonside Girls’<br />
high school new site is a concern<br />
for some.<br />
The schools say the 2200<br />
students who started at the QE II<br />
Park site earlier this month are<br />
settling in and conversations to<br />
deal with issues are ongoing.<br />
However, a post on the People’s<br />
Republic of New Brighton<br />
Facebook page asking members<br />
what their children thought<br />
of the school two days after it<br />
opened received more than 100<br />
comments.<br />
Some students had told their<br />
parents overcrowded buses and<br />
narrow hallways had made the<br />
move difficult.<br />
AGHS principal Sue Hume<br />
and SBHS principal John Laurenson<br />
said early challenges were<br />
to be expected, but there was<br />
nothing to worry about.<br />
“To be perfectly honest with<br />
you, on the first few days of<br />
school there was congestion<br />
and we couldn’t allow that to<br />
continue because it would have<br />
been a health and safety issue.<br />
So, it’s not fabricated and we<br />
have to find out a logistical,<br />
organisational solution,” said Mr<br />
Laurenson.<br />
“Of course, there are always<br />
issues with tweaking things and<br />
CROWDED: Efforts to decrease congestion at the Shirley<br />
Boys’ High School and Avonside Girls’ High School new, shared<br />
campus are under way.<br />
finding out how they work best<br />
for everyone, so we’re just working<br />
together to make sure the site<br />
works best for everyone,” Mrs<br />
Hume said.<br />
Some Facebook commenters<br />
said these early issues had made<br />
the first days at the school difficult.<br />
“My daughter said the hallways<br />
are far too narrow and packed<br />
full of kids,” said one commenter.<br />
Mr Laurenson said congestion<br />
had eased somewhat and<br />
meetings to figure out how to<br />
deal with it, particularly when<br />
students made their way to lunch<br />
areas, had already happened.<br />
Options including separating<br />
the two schools’ lunch times had<br />
been considered.<br />
The same commenter said her<br />
daughter had been made to wait<br />
more than an hour for a bus after<br />
two drove past her too full.<br />
Other commenters said students<br />
were struggling to adjust to<br />
the shared nature of the campus.<br />
Mrs Hume admitted adjusting<br />
had been difficult, but said measures<br />
had been taken to deal with<br />
these issues.<br />
“This is new for us all and<br />
we are adjusting to occupying<br />
the same site and sharing some<br />
facilities. The senior teams from<br />
both schools keep in touch with<br />
each other as we work together<br />
to support the co-location and<br />
student access to the shared<br />
spaces. There is some pressure at<br />
break times on some spaces and<br />
we are working together to manage<br />
that.”<br />
She said overcrowding on campus<br />
had eased as the students<br />
had become more familiar with<br />
the site.<br />
Environment Canterbury has<br />
also added another bus and stopping<br />
points to ensure students<br />
could get to and from school<br />
more comfortably, said Mrs<br />
Hume.<br />
Other Facebook commenters<br />
agreed with Mrs Hume, saying<br />
students needed to be patient<br />
and allow time for the schools to<br />
figure out how they could function<br />
best together.<br />
“We are so lucky to have a<br />
wonderful new school in the<br />
area. Being the newbie always<br />
takes time, give it a chance,” said<br />
one.<br />
IF IT’S<br />
HAPPENING NOW<br />

Mauger’s bid for council<br />
Businessman<br />
joins election<br />
contest<br />
• By Matt Slaughter<br />
WELL-KNOWN businessman<br />
Phil Mauger is making a bid<br />
to win a city council seat in<br />
October’s local body elections.<br />
Mr Mauger, who lives in Avonhead,<br />
has targeted the Burwood<br />
Ward where he will try to unseat<br />
three-time councillor Glenn<br />
Livingstone.<br />
Mr Mauger is head of Maugers<br />
Contracting Ltd, a third-generation<br />
family business that had<br />
its beginnings in North Beach<br />
decades ago.<br />
“It’s time to put my money<br />
where my mouth is so to speak<br />
and actually do it rather than just<br />
sit on the sidelines,” he said.<br />
“I think the council’s crying out<br />
for some people with a little bit<br />
more business acumen to stop<br />
having over-spends on things.”<br />
Lowering rates and progressing<br />
earthquake repairs would be his<br />
main priorities if he was voted in.<br />
“You can’t just keep going<br />
around cranking up people’s<br />
rates.<br />
“Rates increases must be held<br />

NEWCOMER: Businessman Phil Mauger will run against Glenn<br />
Livingstone (inset) for the Burwood Ward seat in October’s<br />
local body elections.<br />
to between 2.5 per cent and 3.5<br />
per cent. The current predicted<br />
five per cent increase over the<br />
next 10 years means more money<br />
coming out of households that<br />
are already finding it hard to<br />
make ends meet.<br />
“Much of the earthquake<br />
rebuild still remains ahead of us.<br />
We have not returned to business-as-usual<br />
mode. The remaining<br />
rebuild has to be affordable<br />
for ratepayers, and our rates must<br />
stop rising unnecessarily.”<br />
Mr Mauger, who is standing as<br />
an independent, said his contracting<br />
background would help<br />
in decision-making.<br />
“We only have one chance to<br />
plan a new future for our red<br />
PYROCLASSIC MINI<br />
AND PYRO IV<br />
Inside colour: flame red<br />
Exterior colours: 200+<br />
zone land. We are told that $800<br />
million will be spent on this<br />
area over the next 30 years. My<br />
contracting background will<br />
be hugely valuable at the city<br />
council table, ensuring money is<br />
spent wisely and with a common<br />
sense approach to provide a<br />
good outcome for generations to<br />
come.”<br />
Cr Livingstone was elected<br />
in 2010, polling 4848 votes. He<br />
held the seat again in 2013 (6862<br />
votes) and in 2016 (4797 votes).<br />
Said Cr Livingstone: “You also<br />
need a social and environmental<br />
bottom line, so you need a multidimensional<br />
approach.’’<br />
Cr Livingstone believed the fact<br />
he lived in the Burwood Ward,<br />
and Mr Mauger didn’t, would<br />
also be to his advantage.<br />
“If he lives in close proximity,<br />
that might be okay, but that’s quite<br />
some distance. I think they’ll have<br />
a question (voters) over how he is<br />
going to relate to them.”<br />
Said Mr Mauger: “I feel I can<br />
do equally as good for the people<br />
in Burwood by my passion for<br />
the area, my roots for the area.<br />
Living there wouldn’t make any<br />
difference to how well I would<br />
work for Burwood.”<br />
Cr Livingstone said his campaign<br />
would be business as usual.<br />
“I treat every candidate as if I’m<br />
up against Richie McCaw.”<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />
TWO TOILET blocks will be<br />
installed at Roto Kohatu Reserve<br />
at a cost of $1 million, with one<br />
more cubicle than expected.<br />
The Fendalton-Waimairi-<br />
Harewood Community Board approved<br />
the decision to install the<br />
facilities at Lake Roto Kohatu and<br />
Lake Rua its last meeting.<br />
There are currently only portaloos<br />
at the site on Sawyers Arms<br />
Rd, which has a high number of<br />
annual visitors who use the lakes<br />
for watersports, swimming and<br />
picnics.<br />
It was initially proposed that<br />
each block would have two cubicles<br />
and an outside shower.<br />
But the city council decided to<br />
include three cubicles in the block<br />
beside Lake Rua after public feedback<br />
suggested future proofing<br />
the services to allow for growth.<br />
To cover the cost of the $95,000<br />
cubicle, the city council have<br />
reduced some of the planned road<br />
upgrades at the site.<br />
Community board chairman<br />
Sam MacDonald said he is glad<br />
the city council enhanced the<br />
designs after looking at the feedback,<br />
rather than having a new<br />
design come back to the board.<br />

Big Apple beckons Burnside actress<br />
• By Jess Gibson<br />
WHEN JACQUELINE Doherty<br />
was 15, she fell in love with acting<br />
and has since set her sights on New<br />
York to check out its booming<br />
theatre scene.<br />
Now, the Burnside 20-year-old<br />
is packing her bags to attend<br />
a 10-week prestigious acting<br />
programme which starts on June 3.<br />
She was<br />
“shocked but<br />
excited” when<br />
she found out<br />
she was selected<br />
to take part in a<br />
course at Stella<br />
Adler Studio of<br />
Acting, where<br />
Robert<br />
De Niro<br />
Robert De Niro<br />
studied before he<br />
became a twotime<br />
Academy Award winner.<br />
He won best supporting actor in<br />
1975 for the role of Vito Corleone<br />
in The Godfather Part II and best<br />
actor for playing Jake LaMotta in<br />
Raging Bull in 1981.<br />
“New York is the hub of theatre,<br />
so I always knew I wanted to go<br />
over at some point . . . but to do an<br />
acting course there is just the best<br />
of both worlds,” Doherty said.<br />
She is looking forward to<br />
developing her acting skills and<br />
hopes the course will give her an<br />
idea of where she will go next in<br />
her career.<br />
Doherty usually sticks to musical<br />
theatre, but said this will help her<br />
to “branch out into all different<br />
types of acting.”<br />
“My main goal is to perform<br />
professionally in whatever way<br />
that might be. I’m using this<br />
opportunity to see what it brings<br />
out of me and where it will take<br />
me,” Doherty said.<br />
She started acting as a hobby<br />
when she was 11-years-old and<br />
started to pursue it more seriously<br />
throughout her years at Burnside<br />
High School.<br />
“As I went through high<br />
school I was doing a lot of music.<br />
Eventually, my love for music<br />
turned into a love for musical<br />
theatre,” she said.<br />
Her most challenging<br />
performances were in Les<br />
Misérables last year and Spring<br />
Awakening in 2017, which inspired<br />
her to work harder and develop as<br />
an actor.<br />
“Those two performances were<br />
the most memorable moments of<br />
what made me want to keep going<br />
with this,” she said.<br />
Doherty has been saving money<br />
for the trip through her job as a law<br />
secretary. She also received a $3000<br />
grant from the Inspire Foundation,<br />
which is a charity dedicated<br />
to supporting Canterbury and<br />
Marlborough’s young talent.<br />
CURTAIN CALL: Jacqueline Doherty will soon receive top<br />
training at Stella Adler Studio of acting in New York, where<br />
Robert De Niro studied before launching into a successful<br />
acting career.<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />
Rangi girls<br />
help out at<br />
clean up<br />
MORE THAN 50 students from<br />
Rangi Ruru Girls’ School headed<br />
out to Kerrs Reach in Avonside to<br />
help in the Mother of all Clean-<br />
Ups.<br />
On the eve of Mother’s Day,<br />
more than 800 people worked together<br />
to clean up the riverbanks<br />
of the Avon River, the Heathcote<br />
River and Estuary edge at 35 different<br />
sites, in what has become<br />
an annual event.<br />
About 3.6-tonnes of rubbish<br />
was picked up.<br />
A plastic bag containing a<br />
number of Korean passports was<br />
also found and these were handed<br />
into police.<br />
Rangi rower Sophie Pye, and<br />
Esther Hwang, both in year 12,<br />
helped to organise the school<br />
group.<br />
Sophie is a rower and knows the<br />
Kerrs Reach part of the Avon well,<br />
and Esther is a student passionate<br />
about sustainability.<br />
“The impact of plastic pollution<br />
on our environment is clear and<br />
evident. We don’t have much<br />
time before the damage becomes<br />
irreversible, which is why Rangi<br />
jumped on board with the Mother<br />
of All Clean Ups,” Sophie said.<br />

Readers respond to<br />
the article about the<br />
Harewood, Breens and<br />
Gardiners Rds intersection,<br />
which is currently out for<br />
consultation<br />
Barbara Purvis - The option<br />
for left-turn only from Breens<br />
and Gardiners Rds is hazardous<br />
and unnecessarily complicated.<br />
For example, it would require vehicles<br />
wanting to go into Breens<br />
Rd from Gardiners Rd not only<br />
to go quickly from Gardiners Rd<br />
into the right-hand lane and the<br />
right turning bay on Harewood<br />
Rd, but then to cross hard left<br />
across two lanes of Harewood<br />
Rd traffic to do a left-turn into<br />
Breens Rd. Given vehicles won’t<br />
be able to move until both lanes<br />
are clear, there is potential for<br />
bottlenecks at the right-turning<br />
lanes where there is not really a<br />
lot of room for vehicles to queue<br />
compared to the safe queuing<br />
zone that currently exists by<br />
waiting in Breens and Gardiners<br />
Rds as they are laid out now.<br />
Traffic lights are a sensible option.<br />
If there can be 19-plus sets<br />
of lights at the intersection of<br />
High and Tuam Sts, there can<br />
surely be lights at this dangerous<br />
intersection. After all, the city<br />
council found the money for<br />
lights opposite the Papanui Club<br />
on Sawyers Arms Rd, where<br />
there is no intersection and only<br />
one lane of traffic in each direction.<br />
It seems to me that putting<br />
in lights, as many local ratepayers<br />
Fujitsu’s Catechin Filters are<br />
approved by the Asthma and<br />
Respiratory Foundation NZ’s<br />
Sensitive Choice ® programme.<br />
Email: info@pshc.co.nz<br />
SAFETY UPGRADE: More than 400 submissions have been<br />
sent into the city council on the Harewood, Breens and<br />
Gardiners Rds intersection.<br />
have wanted, would be the sensible<br />
way forward.<br />
Helen Redmond - Lights<br />
are, in my opinion, by far the correct<br />
way to make the intersection<br />
on Gardiners, Harewood and<br />
Breens Rds operate. Option one is<br />
a load of nonsense. Lights, please.<br />
I am a Northwood resident and<br />
I use the intersection in question<br />
everyday. There has been a lot<br />
of talk, obviously, it’s all down to<br />
costs.<br />
Marg Sanders - What a<br />
ridiculous scenario option one<br />
would result in. Imagine a busonly<br />
right-turn bay that won’t be<br />
used by cars wanting to turn and<br />
the accidents this could cause.<br />
This council is nuts. Why don’t<br />
they listen to the people who<br />
put them there for a change?<br />
The same scenario happened in<br />
Shirley and now instead of a nice<br />
simple picnic table and seats,<br />
they have an expensive ping<br />
pong table and no seats. Traffic<br />
lights are the only way to go. I use<br />
this intersection and that is my<br />
opinion.<br />

In your<br />
neighbourhood<br />
Traditional and natural –<br />
Rawleigh’s for your family and your home<br />
Rawleigh’s know that when<br />
something is not broken, it<br />
just doesn’t need fixing. They<br />
have been manufacturing<br />
natural medicinal products for<br />
over a century and because their<br />
medicated ointment and salve<br />
are so effective they have pretty<br />
much kept to W T Rawleigh’s<br />
original formula from back in 1889.<br />
That is not to say they do not<br />
move with the times. Having begun<br />
with the salve and ointment that<br />
so many New Zealanders grew up<br />
with, the product range has evolved<br />
and increased to include other<br />
medicinals, nutritional, personal<br />
care and home care products. The<br />
medicinals are go-to’s for any home<br />
first aid kit with antiseptic creams for<br />
abraisions, products to help with the<br />
symptoms of colds, and rubs for after<br />
rugby and netball in these cold winter<br />
months.<br />
The expanded range of personal<br />
care items includes high-quality hair,<br />
skin and bath products, all from the<br />
best possible natural ingredients. And<br />
that same quality applies to keeping your<br />
home hygienic too, with everything from<br />
concentrated multi-surface cleaner and<br />
laundry power to pet shampoo and moss<br />
killer.<br />
Traditionally, a team of independent<br />
distributors has been responsible for bringing<br />
these items into our homes, helping keep<br />
prices affordable. One of these is Fiona<br />
Head. Based in Harewood, she moved to<br />
Christchurch from the Hawke’s Bay area four<br />
years ago and has spent the last two year as<br />
a Rawleigh’s distributor and, she says, she’s<br />
“really loving it.” She remembers Rawleigh’s<br />
in the house as a child, rediscovered it for<br />
herself and an adult and has not looked<br />
back since. Her customers benefit from her<br />
friendly welcome and in-depth knowledge of<br />
the products. She can explain what they do<br />
and which one is best for any given situation.<br />
Fiona is available every weekday afternoon<br />
and right through the weekends, and with<br />
almost all products in stock, there’s usually<br />
no waiting for a delivery.<br />
Contact her on 03 550 1544 or<br />

Unique approach<br />
to helping kids thrive!<br />
For parents that have children struggling<br />
with anxiety, depression, behavioural<br />
issues, or in fact, anything that is troubling<br />
them or causing disruption to family life, it<br />
can sometimes seem that no-one can help<br />
and nothing works.<br />
Amanda Staniford, founder and<br />
director of Kids Life Academy, says many<br />
parents come to her with issues like these,<br />
desperate to get help for their children,<br />
which they haven’t found anywhere else.<br />
Providing that help is the purpose of Kids<br />
Life Academy, and is Amanda’s passion.<br />
Drawing on her diverse background and<br />
experience in education, including special<br />
needs, emotional intelligence, drama<br />
teaching, neuro linguistic programming,<br />
educational kinesiology and life coaching,<br />
Amanda began developing Kids Life<br />
Academy five years ago.<br />
She has created programmes for<br />
primary-age children (Rock Solid Kids)<br />
and pre-school children (Little Pebbles).<br />
Teens have access to Amanda’s expertise<br />
via group or individual coaching sessions.<br />
“I have a different approach, which is<br />
holistic and unique. For me the three<br />
keys to helping children overcome any<br />
problems are imagination, visualisation<br />
and belief.”<br />
“The real magic wand is the child’s<br />
own mind.” - Jose Ortega Y Gasset<br />
The weekly classes are based on a term<br />
theme, which caters for the immediate<br />
needs of the students enrolled.<br />
“The children have a lot of fun, and<br />
are encouraged to use their imagination<br />
through drama. The drama platform<br />
allows children to explore their thoughts<br />
and feelings in a supported and safe<br />
environment,” Amanda says.<br />
“It allows me to understand their<br />
particular issues and help them develop the<br />
skills and techniques to overcome them.<br />
“They also have a journal that they<br />
use to record what they are ‘happy and<br />
grateful’ for each week and this is shared<br />
at the beginning of each lesson.<br />
“Each child is a treasured member of<br />
our KLA family and as such I place a great<br />
deal of importance on communication<br />
with parents.”<br />
Another aspect of Amanda’s work,<br />
which can be very helpful for some<br />
families, is the kids coaching sessions.<br />
Amanda is currently taking bookings<br />
and enrolments for next term, with classes<br />
being held after school on Mondays at the<br />
Waimairi Community Centre. Numbers<br />
are limited to 16 per class, to ensure<br />
the children get maximum benefit from<br />
the programme.<br />

HEALTH & AWARENESS<br />
Hip pain: Do I have arthritis or<br />
could it be mainly my muscles?<br />
The team at Physical Sense in Sydenham<br />
sees clients with a range of symptoms but<br />
many of their middle-aged and senior<br />
clients visit complaining of pain in one or<br />
both hips.<br />
Physiotherapist Ietje van Stolk suggests<br />
that a major part of the pain could be due<br />
to muscle pain rather than simply arthritis.<br />
“Even if an x-ray shows arthritis, the reason<br />
for the pain may be the muscles around<br />
the joint,” she explains. Alternatively, a<br />
back muscle could also be the cause, as<br />
shown in the image.<br />
Ietje recalls one case where an 89 year<br />
old client with severe arthritis who walked<br />
with a stick, told her, “I will end up in<br />
a wheelchair, I cannot put any weight<br />
through my right leg due to pain in my hip<br />
and buttock”. “Within 4 treatments, she<br />
was walking with her stick but without the<br />
severe pain,” says Ietje. “The arthritis was<br />
one of the factors that made her muscles<br />
spasm but the other was that older people<br />
move less and the flexed position the hip<br />
is in when we sit is particularly bad for<br />
the hip.” Ietje is happy with the fact that<br />
although the client was 89 and could have<br />
been “given up on” or told to live with the<br />
pain, she made a difference to her health<br />
Hip muscle that causes hip pain<br />
(the crosses are the areas of the muscle spasms, the red areas is where the pain is felt)<br />
and wellbeing.<br />
At Physical Sense, hands-on techniques<br />
(massage and triggerpoint deactivation<br />
techniques) are used to release the muscles.<br />
The client also gets a home exercise<br />
program designed to mobilize and stretch<br />
the hip, strengthen the important core<br />
muscles and increase general strength and<br />
balance. They teach a movement sequence<br />
that stretches the hip in all directions<br />
whilst the client is able to lie safely on their<br />
bed, perfect for older or less mobile clients.<br />
In many cases having the muscles<br />
released and being taught how to maintain<br />
it, is enough to stay on top of the problem.<br />
If severe arthritis is the underlying cause,<br />
some maintenance therapy may be<br />
necessary, but that is often more affordable<br />
and, for older patients, better tolerated than<br />
surgery. In very few treatments the client<br />
Back hip muscle that causes hip pain<br />
will know if it is going to work for them or<br />
not, without financial commitment.<br />

FOCUS ON HEALTH<br />
Centuries old folk<br />
remedy supports<br />
good health!<br />
More health<br />
benefits with<br />
Advanced<br />
Omega-3-PC<br />
Fish Oil<br />
It is well known how important omega-3 fatty acids are to good<br />
health. It is estimated most people don’t even get a third of the<br />
recommended omega-3 fatty acids on a weekly basis. Countries with<br />
a higher amounts of omega-3 in the diet are known to have lower<br />
cardiovascular disease and in many cases better overall health. Recent<br />
research has shown inflammation to be a big part of disease and the<br />
ageing process. Fish oil can help reduce inflammation by providing<br />
essential fatty acids required by the body to heal itself and maintain<br />
good health. Fish oil supplements have become hugely popular<br />
for this reason. Until now most fish oil only contained omega-3<br />
fatty acids in triglyceride form. Fish however naturally contain<br />
omega-3 in triglyceride and phospholipid form but until recently the<br />
phospholipid form was lost due to the manufacturing process.<br />
GO-ADVANCED OMEGA-3-PC sets new standards in fish oil as<br />
it contains omega-3 attached to both triglycerides and phospholipids.<br />
Studies have shown GO-ADVANCED OMEGA-PC to be far better<br />
absorbed leading to increased levels of vital omega-3 fatty acids in the<br />
organs thru giving the potential for more health benefits.<br />
GO-ADVANCED OMEGA-3-PC is produced from fresh wild<br />
deep sea cold water fish using a new advanced and more natural cold<br />
extraction process that better preserves the natural nutrient profile<br />
found in fish. It is manufactured to high GMP standards and is<br />
molecularly distilled to remove any containments, toxins and heavy<br />
metals like mercury.<br />
Further information on this revolutionary new fish oil and how<br />
it may benefit you is available from the Natural Health Advisers,<br />
at Marshall’s Health & Natural Therapy, 101 Seaview Road, New<br />
Brighton, Phone: 388-5757. We are always happy to help!<br />
A fermented liquid health tonic offers an array of<br />
powerful health benefits. It is none other than the<br />
popular apple cider vinegar or ACV. Since the time<br />
of Hippocrates – the “Father of Medicine” – ACV<br />
has been renowned for its curative properties.<br />
In his popular book “ARTHRITIS and FOLK<br />
MEDICINE”, DR. D.C. Jarvis reports how he found<br />
that Vermonters who regularly consumed ACV and<br />
Honey had excellent health with many putting in<br />
a vigorous day’s work on the farm even when well<br />
into their eighties. He also noted the effects of ACV<br />
and H on arthritis to be remarkable with many<br />
patients reporting almost total relief after taking a<br />
course of the mixture. Dr. Jarvis surmised that the<br />
acid and potassium in cider vinegar counteracted<br />
calcium deposits and helped the body control<br />
calcium use. He also noted that Vermonters who<br />
consumed ACV and H around meal time had<br />
excellent blood pressure and circulation. The reason<br />
he found was that protein foods thickened the<br />
blood and vinegar thinned it. As the blood thickens<br />
it cannot pass as easily and quickly through the<br />
blood vessels and capillaries. This poor blood flow<br />
would reduce cellular health by limiting nutrients<br />
to the cells as well as waste elimination from the<br />
cells. To prevent cell damage the body naturally<br />
increases blood pressure but this puts more stress<br />
on the blood vessels, organs and heart. Having ACV<br />
and H with meals will help prevent protein raising<br />
the blood pressure. It also contributes to a feeling<br />
of greater well-being because the thinner blood<br />
circulates quickly and more easily through the<br />
blood vessels. Dr. Jarvis found regular consumption<br />
of CV and H to be an excellent health tonic with<br />
numerous health attributes. Also when used at<br />
the onset of complaints such as the common cold,<br />
sinusitis, asthmatic attacks, hay fever and childhood<br />
diseases such as chicken pox and measles, was<br />
accompanied by an improvement in the condition<br />
with symptoms either disappearing or the<br />
conditions were extremely mild and soon over.<br />
More recent research on ACV has shown it to be<br />
highly effective at controlling blood sugar levels.<br />
Elevated blood sugar is associated not only with<br />
diabetes, but with numerous health problems<br />
from premature aging to multiple chronic<br />
diseases. In a study published in Diabetes Care<br />
Journal, ACV improved insulin sensitivity during<br />
high-carb meals by 19-34% and significantly<br />
lowered blood glucose and insulin responses.<br />
Another Japanese study found ACV can help you<br />
feel fuller, eat less and lose weight. Participants<br />
in the 12 week study were found to have reduced<br />
waist circumference and lower triglyceride levels<br />
therefore reducing their cardiovascular risk levels.<br />
Another observational study conducted by Harvard<br />
showed that women who ate salad dressings with<br />
ACV had a reduced risk of heart disease.<br />
ACV is highly nutritious as it contains all the<br />
goodness of the apple in a form that is readily<br />
accepted by the body. Scientists have found over<br />
90 different substances in ACV, among them 20<br />
important trace elements, minerals and essential<br />
enzymes. A scientific study at the Shizuka<br />
University in Japan has proven ACV to have potent<br />
antioxidant benefits (It can destroy free radicals,<br />
which are a major factor in ageing.) and also the<br />
ACV can break down cholesterol formations in the<br />
blood vessels.<br />
Good health starts with good digestion and<br />
assimilation of nutrients. ACV taken before food<br />
will stimulate and promote healthy digestion and<br />
assimilation of vital nutrients for good health. A<br />
well-functioning digestive system helps prevent<br />
disease by neutralising any toxic substances that<br />
enter the body.<br />
It is important to note not all ACV is produced<br />
in the traditional way and results are likely to prove<br />
disappointing with these other vinegars.<br />
Marshall’s Premium ACV and ACV with<br />
20% Manuka Honey is produced in<br />
Canterbury from Organic whole<br />
apples in the traditional way. It is<br />
double strength so you can use<br />
less.<br />

Health BUT are lost in other brands of fish oil due to the less natural manufacturing processes used!<br />
GO-ADVANCED OMEGA-PC SETS NEW STANDARDS IN FISH OIL!<br />
Omega-3 fish oil normally contains the vital Omega-3 fatty acids in a triglyceride form. Fish however naturally<br />

increased omega-3 fatty acids in organs giving the potential for more health benefits.<br />
GO-ADVANCED OMEGA-PC OFFERS:<br />
• Superior absorption of vital Omega-3, as<br />
shown in research<br />
• Advanced new cold extraction better<br />
preserves the natural nutrient profile<br />
found in fish<br />
• Naturally contains phospholipids to<br />

The extraction of air from the bathroom opening a window can draw cold air into<br />

Bathrooms can generate a large quantity Modern houses are built to be very<br />
of steam and odours. It is important this airtight and require mechanical ventilation<br />

systems. Although older houses can be<br />
Bathroom odours can be unpleasant, draughty, the air often flows in the wrong<br />
especially when near living, sleeping or direction. Therefore, they also usually<br />
working areas.<br />
require mechanical ventilation to keep the<br />

baths can be damaging to your home and The quality of the air we breathe affects our<br />
furnishings and be a major contribution health and ability to perform. We breathe<br />

Choosing the<br />
right heat pump<br />
for your home<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 />

THE PAPANUI-I nes<br />
Community Board has taken the<br />
rare step of starting a petition<br />
to figh the city council over<br />
funding.<br />
Signatures are being co lected<br />
in a bid to get funding for a community<br />
facility in Shirley.<br />
It comes after the city council<br />
removed funding for the centre<br />
pla ned for Shirley Rd, near the<br />
intersection with Hi ls Rd. This<br />
was the site of the former community<br />
centre, which was badly<br />
damaged in the February 2,<br />
20 1, earthquake.<br />
The removal o funding<br />
prompted community board<br />
chairwoman Ali Jones to threaten<br />
to stand down, citing it as her “die<br />
The former New Zealand<br />
title-holder trave led with his<br />
father George and brother<br />
Bryce to London ahead of the<br />

Ms Jone said the board’s role<br />
is to represen the community,<br />
and by gathering signatures from<br />
residents, it was fulfi ling that<br />
role.<br />
“One of the roles of a community<br />
board is to represent and act<br />
as advocate for the interests of its<br />
community and this is what we<br />
are doing. The LTP and a nual<br />

THE OWNERS of Sumner’s Cave<br />
Rock Apartments ar expecting the<br />
Earthquake Commi sion to sign-off<br />
on a se tlement agr emen this w ek.<br />
Body corporate chairman Mike<br />
White said the group had gone<br />
into mediation with IAG and EQC<br />
on February 20, and signed off<br />
on a deal with IAG on February<br />
2 – coincidenta ly seven years<br />
to the day after the February 2,<br />
20 1, earthquake. However, they<br />
are waiting for EQC to sign the<br />
agr ement.<br />
“Given that EQC actua ly drafted<br />
the agr ement, there’ l be no<br />
problem with them doing that.”<br />
The apartment suffered damage<br />
in the February and June, 20 1,<br />
earthquakes and were demolished in<br />
late 2012. In 2016, IAG’s offer of the<br />
difference betw en indemnity value,<br />
$10 mi lion, and the sum insured,<br />
$16 mi lion, was rejected by the body<br />
corporate.<br />
The mediation agr ement<br />
prevented Mr White from disclosing<br />
the se tlement amount, but he said it<br />
involved the two parties paying “a bit<br />
more money than they’d wanted to<br />
earlier.”<br />
