FOR 20 years John Kuipers has 

been a regular at the Pioneer 

pool, swimming against the 

retirement tide to stay fit and

After the Pioneer Recreation

anniversary celebration on 

Saturday, Mr Kuipers, 82, has 

plans to kick on into the next 

decade. “I have been a regular 

since the pool opened,” he said. 

“I go five days a week but 

I only use the leisure pool 

now. When I was 65, I did 65 

laps but now I do about 20 laps 

in the leisure pool. “I used to 

also go regularly to the gym, but 

now I go one day a week and do 

gentle exercise.” •Turn to page 4

THE LOCAL body elections in October 

are shaping up as the most fascinating for 

years. 

Lianne Dalziel is still a lone contender 

for mayor, and no one is signalling yet they 

will stand against her. But the battle for 

council seats is under way. 

Spreydon-Cashmere Community Board member Lee 

Sampson is in the fight for the Cashmere Ward. 

He faces two term councillor Tim Scandrett, and others may 

also join the battle. 

Sampson is running under The People’s Choice banner, a left 

leaning political group which appears to be making a stronger 

bid for power this election than they did three years ago. 

They are fielding candidates in wards where there are leftthinking 

incumbent councillors. 

It’s going to be an interesting battle.

Flooding costs holiday park 

Owners ask 

for help to 

fix problem 

• By Matt Slaughter 

HEAVY RAIN has forced the 

South Brighton Holiday Park to 

close four times in the past two 

years. 

Park manager Sam Hawkins 

estimates closing due to 

flooding has cost the park more 

than $8000. It had to close over 

Queen’s Birthday weekend. 

He said the park needs help to 

deal with the flooding. 

Mr Hawkins addressed the 

Coastal-Burwood Community 

Board last week, where he 

outlined his concerns over 

the impact heavy rainfall has 

had on the park, including 

the downpour over Queen’s 

Birthday weekend. 

The board has requested 

urgent advice on how flooding 

can be dealt with and has asked 

for site meetings to take place 

between holiday park staff, 

city council staff and board 

members. 

Mr Hawkins said the drainage 

system at the holiday park has to 

be improved, as it has not coped 

with the heavy rain. 

“If it gets too bad we have to 

shut the park due to sites being 

unusable,” he said. 

“It affects most of our camp 

because we’re quite low-lying. 

There are puddles pretty much 

through most of the camp, the 

roadways, everything like that, 

so then it affects the grass with 

oversaturation and people drive 

on it, which creates mud and 

headache after headache.” 

The flooding over Queen’s 

Birthday meant the park had to 

turn away guests, Mr Hawkins 

said. 

“It’s affecting the income 

revenue, but also affecting 

having staff working longer 

hours and coming in on their

flooding is one petrol-powered 

water pump, which is not been 

able to deal with the problem on 

its own. 

Mr Hawkins said he wants the 

city council to provide a larger 

water pump to clear stormwater 

lines, and the area’s water 

storage and drainage systems 

need to be improved. 

Mr Hawkins hopes a meeting 

to discuss these options with 

city council staff will take place 

before the holiday park floods 

again. 

“Hopefully, before the 

next rainfall, there’s some 

action with at least a decentsized 

pump or something 

like that to help alleviate the 

problem.”

MOOSE’S MISADVENTURE 

Meet Mr Moose, a 7 week 

old White Swiss Shepherd 

who our vet Kirsty saw 

on Saturday for anorexia, 

straining to defecate and 

vomiting for the past 24 

hours. Moose had Giardia 

as a wee puppy and 

was treated whilst at the 

breeders. On examination 

Moose was alert and 

interactive but extremely 

painful on palpation of 

the abdomen, hunching 

and crying when touched. 

Kirsty didn’t feel he was 

constipated. He was very lean and dehydrated. 

Being so young, Kirsty was concerned at 

his level of pain so he was admitted for 

Intravenous fluids, pain medications and xrays 

to determine the cause of his pain. 

Plain radiographs didn’t show much initially 

so we went straight into contrast studies, 

administering barium orally. The xrays looked 

pretty and we had a hunch he either had an 

intestinal foreign body, an intussusception 

or severe gastroenteritis. The pain relief we 

had administered 

hadn’t really settled 

him at all. His blood 

testing revealed 

an anemia and 

an inflammatory 

response. 

After close 

consultation 

with the owners, 

Kirsty felt it the 

right option to 

anaesthetise 

Moose and have 

a look inside to see what was going on. She 

didn’t feel he was improving and that it 

wouldn’t be right to wait another 24 hours. 

On surgical examination, Moose 

was diagnosed with a jejunojejunal 

intussusception – this is where an inflamed 

section of bowel has slipped inside another 

segment of bowel (prolapse), effectively 

obstructing and restricting the movement of 

ingesta through. 

This can happen 

in any part of the 

gastrointestinal 

tract. It is more 

common in 

younger animals 

and often occurs 

in association with 

a worm burden, 

recent diarrhoea, 

a foreign object 

in the gut, intense 


contractions or 

recent bowel 

surgery. Moose did 

have Giardia as a 

young puppy and 

was treated for this. 

Open 7 days

www.mcmasterheap.co.nz 

Gastrointestinal intussusceptions are 

serious with severe complications if not 

corrected surgically. These can be electrolyte 

imbalances, severe dehydration, death 

(necrosis) of bowel tissue due to constriction 

of the blood supply and severe toxaemia. 

Clinically these dogs present with bloody 

diarrhoea, straining to pass faeces, weight loss, 

occasional vomiting and loss of appetite. 

Luckily for “Moose” our vet Kirsty was onto it 

late on a Saturday afternoon. Waiting another 

24 hours for surgery 

could have been 

too late for Moose. 

Kirsty easily reduced 

the prolapsed 

bowel and 

checked the entire 


tract for any other 

abnormalities. 

The bowel looked 

essentially healthy. 

Kirsty biopsied a 

piece of bowel 

tissue just in case there is an underlying cause 

as it why this occurred. We are still awaiting 

these results. 

Moose has recovered very well from his big 

ordeal. He needed to spend a few nights at 

our After Hours clinic for around the clock 

monitoring, basically due to him undergoing 

major surgery at only 13 weeks of age. He was 

discharged on pain medication, antibiotics 

and gut protectants. We are 

awaiting bowel biopsy and 

fecal testing results to see if a 

cause can be attributed to the 

intussusception. He’s back on 

his food, maintaining his weight 

and healing well. He’s simply 

adorable and very huggable. 

Well done Kirsty for another 

great surgical success. Steve 

and I are very proud of our staff, 

always going the extra mile 

for their patients, regardless if 

these patients are seen over a 

weekend or late at night.

Another blow for Linwood Village 

A number of strategies 

have been tried and 

tested in the Linwood 

Village area including 

a liquor ban. But it has 

been dealt yet another 

blow with the closing of 

SuperValue last week, 

Julia Evans reports 

THE SHELVES were nearly 

empty and almost everything was 

on special – including last year’s 

Christmas paper. 

Instead of beggars outside, 

there was a steady stream of 

people making their way in 

and out of the Stanmore Rd 

SuperValue to get a deal before it 

closed. 

Friday was the store’s last 

trading day, it was shutting up for 

good. 

But it seemed owner Choy 

Ming Lee wanted to leave quickly 

and quietly, without making a 

fuss. 

He declined to be interviewed. 

Mr Lee had previously said 

drinking and begging outside 

the store was putting shoppers 

off – they were too intimidated to 

enter. 

Last year the city council 

approved a permanent liquor 

ban for streets around the village 

bound by Fitzgerald Ave, Armagh 

St, England St and Hereford St, 

including Doris Lusk Reserve. 

But beggars and people 

drinking outside the shops are 

still the main reason Steve Joseph, 

who owns Hibbards Butchery on 

the opposite side of Stanmore Rd 

said he is also leaving. 

Once his tenancy was up, the 

business would be the next store 

to close – he’s already purchased 

another butchery to move into 

and will leave Linwood when his 

lease runs out mid-2020. 

However, Mr Joseph said it was 

not quite as bad since the alcohol 

ban had come in. 

“But I’ve had customers 

phone in and say they would 

love to shop here but they won’t 

anymore,” he said. 

Police drive through and don’t 

stop to move people on, he said. 

“Losing the supermarket is a 

big blow, but it’s just the area.” 

Mr Joseph was waiting to see 

how losing the supermarket 

would impact the area, but he 

predicted it would soon be empty 

of any shoppers at all. 

“The street’s going to be a ghost 

town,” he said. 

“I can’t imagine how many 

customers we are losing because 

of all the drinking and smoking.” 

One of his customers Lisa 

Howard, who has lived in the area 

for more than 20 years, said she 

doesn’t go to the butchery often 

any more because of the people 

begging outside. 

“I haven’t been down to the 

butcher since people started 

drinking outside . . . I love the 

butcher,” she said. 

The fact that the supermarket 

was going would impact the 

whole area, she said. 

“It’s going to affect a lot of 

elderly people and people who 

live nearby, for a lot of people its 

only a hop, skip and a jump,” Ms 

Howard said. 

“I don’t blame him, it’s not his 

fault.” 

However, she said the liquor 

ban had made a different and 

there were other initiatives, like 

the tiny shops, a hub for smallscale 

community businesses such 

as bike repairs, and other work by 

Te Whare Roimata, which were 

helping. 

“It’s hard to tell the difference 

between beggars and the 

homeless. If they’re genuinely 

homeless, I would like to see 

them get a home,” she said. 

Armagh St resident Adam Calje 

said SuperValue closing was a 

“major loss” for the area. 

“It’s angered me that the 

beggars have done this. I’ve got 

half a dozen neighbours I know 

that won’t come down to these 

shops at all,” he said. 

“The whole area is dying.” 

Mr Calje said the SuperValue 

was convenient and cheap for 

those who lived on the south 

side of the Avon River, compared 

to New World more than 1km

away along Stanmore Rd. 

“I don’t understand why they 

don’t have this problem on the 

other side of the river,” he said. 

“I resent the fact I’m going to 

have to walk further to go to the 

supermarket.” 

Mr Calje has witnessed major 

fights, drinking, drug use and 

been approached by women 

offering sexual favours in broad 

daylight. 

When Southern View visited, 

a man placed his open can of 

bourbon on top of the Kiwibank 

ATM before he went and urinated 

up against the fence. 

It was 3pm. 

Mr Calje said he would drive 

around the block to go into the 

supermarket through the back 

door so he didn’t have to walk 

past the beggars. 

“But the neighbourhood has 

improved in some ways,” he said. 

The alcohol ban had helped, 

but not enough. “Before the 

earthquake, it used to be quite a 

vibrant shopping area,” Mr Calje 

said. Now he’s made it his mission 

to bring attention to the issues 

and get some action.

Fighting for Linwood 


“I’ve spoken to police, Deon 

[Swiggs] and now I’ve got an 

appointment with Duncan Webb,” 

he said. 

“If I die trying, I’m going to 

help.” 

Mr Calje said there was a 

distinct police presence in the 

area a while ago, but it had 

dropped off as time went on. 

Superintendent Lane Todd 

said resources had been 

diverted since the March 15 terror 

attack. 

“We are aware of concerns and 

have been in touch with local 

businesses to offer reassurance. 

The Neighbourhood Policing 

Team will be resuming duties in 

Linwood Village in the coming 

weeks,” he said. 

“Police strongly encourage 

anyone who feels threatened 

or unsafe due to anti-social 

behaviour to notify police 

immediately, so we can respond 

as appropriate. We want the 

public to be safe, and feel safe.’’ 

Improving the area has been 

on the radar of Central Ward city 

councillor Deon Swiggs since he 

was elected in 2016. 

“It’s a local supermarket and 

a huge loss of amenity for local 

residents,” he said. 

“But there’s a lot of potential in 

the area, just a lot of deep-seated 

social issues to overcome.” 

Cr Swiggs lobbied hard for the 

alcohol ban – but said there was 

still a lot more to be done and in 

spite of the supermarket leaving, 

hope was not lost. 

“We do need to do more. I 

think the area needs a special 

regeneration. The success of the 

central city is dependent on the 

suburbs around it,” he said. 

However, Cr Swiggs said it was 

more than just drinking, there 

were mental health issues. 

A city council spokesperson 

said about 60 per cent of the area’s 

commercial buildings were lost in 

the earthquake. 

There were concerns over 

the recent loss of the supermarket. 

“Anchors play an important 

role in centres, and the loss of an 

anchor such as a supermarket 

may impact the vibrancy of a 

centre.” 

However, work is ongoing in 

the area’s redevelopment. 

“The Linwood Village Master 

Plan was developed with the 

community and adopted in 

August 2012 to support the 

recovery of the commercial 

centre.” 

Work to date includes landscape 

improvements at Doris Lusk Park,

Residents have 

mixed feelings for 

council – surveys 

WATER AND the state of 

roads are the two major sources 

of discontent with the city’s 

residents. 

The point of contact survey 

and the general service 

satisfaction survey are two of the 

measures the city council uses 

to gauge its performance and to 

identify areas for 

improvement. 

The condition of 

roads and footpaths 

and the quality of 

the water remain a 

source of discontent 

for people – 27 per 

cent of people were 

happy with the state 

of the roads and 37 

per cent with water 

quality. 

“The findings of these surveys 

are valuable because they highlight 

the areas where residents 

feel we need to do better,’’ chief 

executive Karleen Edwards said. 

“For example, it is clear from 

the point of contact survey 

results that residents want better 

maintenance and upkeep of our 

community parks, wharves and 

jetties, and cemeteries. That is 

something elected members 

will be able to take into account 

when they meet over the next 

few weeks to finalise the city 

council’s budget and work 

programme for the next 12 

months.” 

Dr Edwards said the survey 

findings also show residents 

don’t fully understand city 

council decision-making 

processes or how they can get 

involved. 

“That is something we need to 

address,” she said. 

“We need to make sure we are 

communicating effectively with 

all sectors of our community 

and that everyone feels they can 

engage with us on the issues 

they care about,’’ Dr Edwards 

says. 

The general service 

satisfaction survey shows 62 

SOUTHERN VIEW 

per cent of those surveyed are 

generally satisfied with the 

council’s performance – up from 

55 per cent last year. 

“One of the most pleasing 

findings of the point of contact 

survey is that 86 per cent of 

those who were asked about 

their interactions with city 

council staff said they 

found them to be 

friendly, approachable 

and helpful,” Dr 

Edwards said. 

“We have put a lot 

of focus on improving 

our customer service 

and ensuring that we 

put the needs of our 

Karleen residents first so I’m very 

Edwards pleased with this result, 

although there is still 

room for improvement.” 

In the general service 

satisfaction survey, roading 

remains the most commonly 

cited area for improvement, 

followed by water supply. 

“We know the condition of 

our roads and footpaths remains 

an issue and we are spending 

an unprecedented amount of 

money to try and improve the 

situation,’’ Dr Edwards said. 

“Before the earthquakes we 

spent about $70 million a year, 

in today’s dollars, on maintaining, 

renewing and upgrading 

the city’s roads and footpaths. In 

this current year we are spending 

$86 million.” 

She said it was also investing 

in the water supply. 

“Unfortunately we have had to 

chlorinate the water while that 

work is done. As a result we have 

seen satisfaction with the quality 

of our water drop from 79 per 

cent last year to 37 per cent,” she 

said. 

“By the end of May about 

90 per cent of Christchurch’s 

water supply is expected to 

be chlorine-free and we are 

working to remove the chlorine 

from the remaining water 

supply as quickly as possible.”

REUNITED: Bill Lochrie and seven of the original navy crew members who travelled 

to Antarctica with him in 1970-71 at a four-day reunion event at the beginning of this 

month. (Left to right) – Ted Haar, John Hutching, Terry Gunn, Bill Lochrie, Pat Katipa, 

Ian Jacques and Keith Ingram. 

MEMORIES: Bill Lochrie (back row, far right) and his crew on the forward 

hold of the HMNZS Endeavour in 1971. 

Navy mates relive Antarctic experiences 


BILL LOCHRIE set sail for 

Antarctica on the HMNZS 

Endeavour as a navy engineer 48 

years ago at the age of 22. 

Some of Mr Lochrie’s best 

memories of his life were made 

on this journey. 

He was with the Royal New 

Zealand Navy for almost nine 

years. 

The New Brighton RSA 

president was reunited with 

seven of his fellow crew members 

who travelled on this 1970-1971 

expedition at the beginning of 

this month. 

The event was organised jointly 

by the New Brighton RSA and 

Rangiora RSA. 

About 60 ex-navy staff who 

travelled to Antarctica in years 

including 1957-58 and 1965 also 

attended to reconnect with old 

friends and remember their 

journeys. 

Mr Lochrie said the reunion 

was special and just like old 

times. 

“We’re all a lot older, but we 

call ourselves matelots [French 

for sailors] and the matelot sense 

of humour never changes. We 

had a great time. 

“A lot of humour and words 

were generated through us 

having a few tots and telling old 

stories and old lies.” 

Leading seaman on the 1970- 

71 expedition Keith Ingram, 

who lives in Auckland, said the 

reunion also had a special link to 

Sir Edmund Hillary. 

Mr Ingram said the 1957-58 

navy crew delivered the Tucker 

Sno-Cat tractor to Hillary’s 

Commonwealth Trans-Antarctic 

Expedition partner Vivian Fuchs 

to make his way from Antarctica 

to the South Pole. 

Fuchs arrived at the South Pole 

on January 20, 1958, 16 days after 

Hillary. 

Mr Ingram and Mr Lochrie’s 

crew picked up the sno-cat from 

McMurdo Sound and brought it 

back to New Zealand in 1971. 

It is now on display in 

Canterbury Museum’s Antarctic 

section, which was visited as part 

of the reunion. 

Other highlights of the fourday 

event included a visit to the 

International Antarctic Centre 

and the Air Force Museum of 

New Zealand and dinner at the 

Rangiora RSA Club, said Mr 

Lochrie.

ARWEN VALKS says no one 

should have to go through 

depression and anxiety alone. 

She has been through them 

herself and knows how hard 

things can get. 

Now Mrs Valks wants to 

publish Rupert’s Black Dog, a 

book she has written for young 

people who are facing similar 

struggles, or might do in the 

future 

A Givealittle page she started 

has already raised $1656. 

Mrs Valks wants to raise $5000 

at least, which would publish 

about 250 books, but said the 

more she raised the more people 

the book would be able to help. 

She said the story followed a 

young boy who discovers his 

anxiety and depression through 

talking to a black dog and learns 

how to deal with it and share 

what he is feeling with others. 

Mrs Valks said she felt the 

message of the book would be 

of value to both young people 

with mental health problems and 

their parents. 

“There are way too many 

precious, amazing, beautiful 

little people who can’t see that 

about themselves and who get 

stuck in this cloud and think 

their only way out is to call time 

out on themselves and it’s just 

heartbreaking and it’s completely 

unnecessary.” 

Part of her inspiration for 

writing the book was the mental 

health struggles she went 

through after the birth of her 

19-month-old daughter Zuri. 

Mrs Valks said if her 

experience with anxiety and 

depression since she was a child, 

which had shaped some of the

themes of the book, could help 

others she would have done her 

job. 

“If me going through all of 

this and writing this book makes 

things better for half a dozen 

people, then it’s worth it. “ 

Mrs Valks said she had sent 

Rupert’s Black Dog to some 

publishers, but nothing had 

come of this yet. 

Her decision to fundraise and 

self-publish was because she 

wanted to get the book out and 

start helping people as soon as 

possible. 

The dog in the story was 

named after her friend Rupert 

Hill-Hayr, who illustrated the 

book for free. 

The Givealittle page for the 

book closes at the end of this 

month and Mrs Valks said every 

contribution would help.

Award for 

pre-school 

A SMALL family-owned 

pre-school has scooped a top 

award from the Healthy Heart 

Foundation. 

Abacus Montessori Pre School 

based in Woolston was recognised 

with a Pᾱ-Harakeke Healthy 

Heart Award last week. 

The award acknowledges early 

childhood services that promote 

healthy food choices and encourage 

physical activity in centres, at 

home and the wider community. 

To celebrate the achievement, 

Heart Foundation New Zealand 

nutritional adviser Mikaela 

Battaerd presented the award to 

the school. 

In2Hula Hoop for Fitness 

owner Bernadette Smith, who 

works alongside the foundation 

also shared her passion for fitness 

with the school by showcasing her 

hula hoop skills. 

The pre-school’s owner-operator 

Mel Dougherty said it is the 

pre-school’s purpose to provide 

an environment that recognises 

the importance of all children’s 

health as spending the day learning 

and playing requires the right 

sort of fuel. 

“Good nutrition is something 

we are very passionate about 

and devote a lot of time to in our 

centre,” she said. 

Basketball court opened in style 


SCHOOL PUPILS, community 

members and sports stars 

gathered on Wednesday to 

celebrate the completion of 

upgrades to Thomson Park in 

New Brighton. 

Rawhiti School pupils, 

Canterbury Rams and 

Canterbury Wildcats basketball 

players were among more than 

100 people who attended the 

event. 

The pupils took part in 

basketball games and drills 

run by the players on the 

new International Basketball 

Federation standard court at the 

park. 

There was a sausage sizzle and 

Coastal-Burwood Community 

Board chairwoman Kim Money 

spoke. 

Along with the construction 

of the basketball court, the park 

upgrades have involved putting 

in a brand new car park, toilet 

facility, bike stands, picnic area, 

pathways and greenery. 

Ms Money said the project 

had taken about 12 weeks to 

complete and it had been great 

to see people finally enjoying the 

park again at the event.

Lock sets sights on world 

champs of a different kind 

• By Gordon Findlater

Shoes are only available at 

37 Main South Road clinic 

NEW BRIGHTON lock Boris 

van Bruchem is preparing to 

represent New Zealand at a 

world championships – but not 

in rugby. 

Van Bruchem, 20, will travel 

to South Africa following New 

Brighton’s final game of the 

metro rugby season as part 

of the New Zealand team to 

compete at the World Korfball 

Championships for the first time. 

The 195cm lock grew up 

around korfball – a ball sport with 

similarities to netball and basketball 

– due to his parents being Dutch. 

His parents through playing 

korfball in the Netherlands, where 

more than 100,000 people take part 

in the sport. 

“I remember watching my 

parents play, then they coached a 

school team we had at Richmond 

School,” said van Bruchem. 

Meet Ruth 

He started playing rugby as an 

eight-year-old for Shirley before 

going on to play first XV rugby at 

Shirley Boys’ High School. 

“Korfball helps with my handeye 

co-ordination, which helps 

with catching and distributing 

the ball at lineouts, but they are 

quite different sports, which is 

why I enjoy them because it’s 

nice being able to do something 

and the next day having a 

different training for a different 

game,” he said. 

He has played for the 

New Zealand under-19 

korfball team at international 

competitions. However, the 

world championships will be his 

first time playing for the New 

Zealand senior side. 

Last year van Bruchem was 

part of the Canterbury rugby 

team which competed at the 

national under-19 tournament. 

Since the end of last season, van 

at the Te Hapua ¯ Halswell Centre Café 

2-3pm Friday 14 June 

Second Friday of each month 

Bruchem has put on 10kg. Now 

105kg, he hopes the added size 

will help him progress his game 

to the next level. 

“Every off-season is about 

putting on weight to be able to go 

to the next level. It is a bit hard 

because you have to eat a lot,” he 

said. 

Van Bruchem is used to being 

the tallest player on the rugby 

field. 

However, when New Zealand 

come up against the Netherlands 

in pool play at the korfball 

champs, he will be brought back 

to eye level with the world’s best. 

“There’s going to be a lot of 

really good players there, it’s just 

going to be really cool to test 

myself against the best in the 

world,” he said. 

The World Korfball 

Championships will 

take place in Durban from 

August 1-10.

CHAMP: Byron 

Antal shows off 

his South Island 

Golden Gloves 

most improved 

trophy. 

Fasting gets boxer 

a bout – and a win 

• By Jacob Page 

WOOLSTON BOXER Byron 

Antal’s success at the South 

Island Gloves has been more 

than 12 months in the making. 

The 15-year-old, who stands 

193cm and used to weigh 110kg, 

has not been able to find an 

opponent in more than a year. 

To find someone to box, 

Byron lost 17kg through 

intermittent fasting, then 

stepped into the ring at 93kg. 

His hard work paid off – not 

only did he beat Marlborough’s 

Elevisi Kaloni to win the junior 

male novice South Island 

title but he was also named 

most improved boxer at the 

tournament. 

“The whole thing was surreal,” 

he said. “I was just sitting there 

at prize-giving and I heard my 

name called.” 

Byron, who lives in New 

Brighton and plays under-16 

rugby for St Bede’s College, said 

he was thrilled to find a bout 

and it validated his effort at 

training. 

“I felt really good in there, 

considering it had been a while,” 

he said. 

“I was happy with my jab 

and my work rate in there. 

Sometimes you get impatient 

and frustrated just training, but 

it’s a waiting game.” 

He had the support of his 

Woolston Boxing Club trainers, 

who went on the weight-loss 

journey with him. 

“I have been having my first 

meal at 12pm and then a dinner 

between 5pm and 6pm and 

nothing else besides water and 

it’s worked.” 

Byron started boxing in 2015 

as a way to get fit during the 

rugby off-season. 

“I didn’t really think I would 

like it, but I kept with it and 

realised I really enjoyed it. 

“At the start, I was training 

hard but I wasn’t looking 

to improve and I was quite 

stubborn, but then I started to 

take advice on board and get 

better. The coaches say I need 

to use my jab, my hook and my 

right.” 

Byron said he would like to 

force his way into Canterbury 

teams this year and then push 

his claim for national honours.

St Thomas’ 

looking to 

continue form 

ST THOMAS of Canterbury 

College and Burnside High 

School will meet in a top of the 

table schools premier first XI 

football match at Christchurch 

Football Centre tomorrow. 

It will be a rematch of last year’s 

final which saw St Thomas claim 

the title 2-1. 

After six rounds in this year’s 

championship St Thomas have 

been untouchable. They have 

gone unbeaten, scoring 36 goals 

and not conceding. 

In their last match they hammered 

Middleton Grange 8-0, 

with captain Tom Stewart scoring 

a hat-trick. 

Meanwhile, Burnside have won 

four of their five games. Their 

first dropped points came in a 1-1 

draw with third placed Papanui 

High School at English Park last 

week. 

A win for either team in tomorrow 

night’s match would provide 

massive boost to their chances 

of qualifying for the Boys Lotto 

Premier Tournament secondary 

school tournament in Napier later 

in the year. 

Kick-off between St Thomas 

and Burnside is at 5.30pm. 

Other fixtures – Cashmere 

v Rangiora; Christ’s College v 

Papanui, Middleton Grange v 

CBHS, St Andrew’s v Lincoln, St 

Bede’s v Riccarton. 

Big year for teen baller 

• By Jacob Page 

CASHMERE HIGH School 

basketball centre Thomas 

Webley is aware how big this 

year is for his future hoops 

dreams. 

The 17-year-old, who is in 

his third and final season with 

the school’s premier basketball 

team, wants to lead them to a 

third consecutive South Island 

title later this year and a top 

four ranking nationally. 

He is also busy applying for 

scholarships to United States 

colleges for next year. 

“This is a big year for me,” he 

said. 

“My last at Cashmere and I 

know that people are looking at 

me to be one of our leaders.” 

Thomas played a big part 

in Waitaha Red’s third-place 

finish at the national under-19 

tournament in Dunedin over 

Queen’s Birthday weekend. 

He was one of five Cashmere 

players to take part in the 

tournament, with Finn Barclay 

and Louis Oskam joining him 

at Waitaha Red, and Luca 

Williams and Willem Russ- 

Hofman playing for Waitaha 

Black, which finished 10th. 

Webley was the only player 

to make the tournament 

teams after several strong 

performances in the paint. 

Waitaha have a mix of 

players from Canterbury and 

North Canterbury. “To make 

the tournament team was a 

good bit of recognition and not 

something that I’ve had a lot of 

so it felt good,” Thomas said. 

He said with a bulk of the 

starting Cashmere team in their 

final year, they were determined 

to stay unbeaten in Canterbury, 

a streak which stretches back to 

2017, while also trying to break 

into the semi-finals at nationals 

later in the year, 

“Last year we had a top four 

goal and we fell short but we 

believe we’ve learnt from that

He said the team was

the more physical North Island 

style, with a trip to Auckland to 

play games against secondary 

schools likely for July.

Experienced hairdresser offers ‘the best cuts’ 

Conveniently located in Barrington Street, just along 

from the mall, Elite Hair Cuts provides top-quality 

hair-cutting services for the whole family. 

Owner Louise Holdern, who has almost 35 years’ 

experience in the industry, says many people have 

told her that the haircut she did for them is the best 

they’ve ever had. 

“I always listen carefully to what the client wants 

and give them that, and most people are very happy 

with the results. They also say they like the friendly, 

down-to-earth atmosphere at the salon,” Louise says. 

For hair colouring, Louise uses the top-ofthe-range 

Luminart Professional Colour Cream; 

however, clients are also welcome to bring in their 

own colour product, which she will apply at a cost of 

$20. 

She also suggests that when a mother brings her 

children in to Elite for their haircut, while she is 

doing that, mum can have a chat to Melissa at the 

adjacent beauty clinic, The Glow Room Beauty, about 

booking in for a beauty treatment for herself. 

To book an appointment for a cut or colour 

at Elite Hair Cuts, phone 022 689 0528, or just 

walk in for a hair cut any time. Opening hours 

are Monday to Friday 9am-5pm, with late night 

Thursday till 6pm.

The Glow Room Beauty, located in the same 

premises as Elite Haircuts in Barrington Street,

services.

with over 13 years’ experience, enjoys meeting 

people from the community, getting to know them 

and making them feel comfortable and relaxed while 

she provides their beauty treatments. 

The products she uses include Harbour Botanicals, 

a natural range made in Diamond Harbour from 

locally grown flowers and herbs. 

Melissa has a particular focus on the senior 

members of the community, providing expert 

pedicures, massage therapy, and lip and chin waxing, 

with a discount for Gold Card holders. 

For people unable to get to The Glow Room Beauty 

for any reason, Melissa offers an outcall service, so 

clients can enjoy their treatment in the comfort and 

privacy of their own home.

offering student discounts, so girls will look beautiful

REAL ESTATE 

Sunrise to sunset 

7A Ranui Crescent, Diamond Harbour 

Price: $418,000 

2/3 bedrooms | 1 bathroom | Open plan living/dining/kitchen | Listing Number: 9394 

Sitting as centre stage to the water, this is 

a quirky, retro and totally unique property. 

Sitting as centre stage to the water as you can 

get, the views here out to the hills and the 

head of the harbour are unbeatable. 

In a well-established, private garden which 

adjoins the reserve, this is a property which 

begs closer inspection. It’s functional in 

layout, and there is certainly opportunity 

here to add value and create something quite 

remarkable with the interior, which oozes 

potential. 

Two decent sized bedrooms and a 

bathroom downstairs, and on the middle 

level is open-plan living/dining and kitchen 

with more phenomenal views. Ascend the 

spiral staircase to the upper level where 

you will find more space for potentially the 

master bedroom or additional living. 

The house itself is tidy but requires some 

structural work to continue its longevity - 

this is a project best suited to someone with 

construction skills or experience. There is an 

engineer’s report available. 

For a private viewing of this unique 

property in a stunning harbour position, 

please contact Emma Dunningham of 

Min Sarginson Real Estate (Licensed 

Agent REAA 2008), phone 027 631 1570 or 

328 7273

THE PAPANUI-I nes 

Community Board has taken the 

rare step of starting a petition 

to figh the city council over 

funding. 

Signatures are being co lected 

in a bid to get funding for a community 

facility in Shirley. 

It comes after the city council 

removed funding for the centre 

pla ned for Shirley Rd, near the 

intersection with Hi ls Rd. This 

was the site of the former community 

centre, which was badly 

damaged in the February 2, 

20 1, earthquake. 

The removal o funding 

prompted community board 

chairwoman Ali Jones to threaten 

to stand down, citing it as her “die 

in the ditch” project. 

Ms Jone said the board’s role 

is to represen the community, 

and by gathering signatures from 

residents, it was fulfi ling that 

role. 

“One of the roles of a community 

board is to represent and act 

as advocate for the interests of its 

community and this is what we 

are doing. The LTP and a nual 

plans are a l about lo bying the 

council.”

THE OWNERS of Sumner’s Cave 

Rock Apartments ar expecting the 

Earthquake Commi sion to sign-off 

on a se tlement agr emen this w ek. 

Body corporate chairman Mike 

White said the group had gone 

into mediation with IAG and EQC 

on February 20, and signed off 

on a deal with IAG on February 

2 – coincidenta ly seven years 

to the day after the February 2, 

20 1, earthquake. However, they 

are waiting for EQC to sign the 

agr ement. 

“Given that EQC actua ly drafted 

the agr ement, there’ l be no 

problem with them doing that.” 

The apartment suffered damage 

in the February and June, 20 1, 

earthquakes and were demolished in 

late 2012. In 2016, IAG’s offer of the 

difference betw en indemnity value, 

$10 mi lion, and the sum insured, 

$16 mi lion, was rejected by the body 

corporate. 

The mediation agr ement 

prevented Mr White from disclosing 

the se tlement amount, but he said it 

involved the two parties paying “a bit 

more money than they’d wanted to 

earlier.”
