TONY RALFE was recognised 

for 51 years of involvement 

at the Bishopdale Tennis 

Club by receiving the Ian 

Jones Memorial Award at the 

Canterbury Tennis Awards. 

Ralfe, who is approaching 70, 

has been made a life member by 

Bishopdale, Wilding Park and 

Canterbury Tennis. For almost 

34 years he has also owned 

and operated a sports shop at 

Bishopdale Mall. However, 

he is currently trying to sell 

Bishopdale Sports World with 

the idea of taking to the road 

with his tennis racket stringing 

machine. •Turn to page 4 

Funding 

shortfall if 

intersection 

lights are 

approved 

• By Jess Gibson 

MORE THAN half of the 1085 

submissions on the Harewood, 

Breens and Gardiners junction 

signalled support for $1.2 million 

traffic lights. 

But if the option is approved, 

the city council will need to find 

$800,000 to fund it. 

A proposal on two options to 

upgrade safety at the intersection 

bought in the highest amount 

of feedback from May 6 to June 

10 of any of the city council’s 

consultations in the last 12 

months. 

Head of transport Richard 

Osborne said staff are still in 

the process of analysing the 

submissions for the Harewood, 

Breens and Gardiners Rds 

intersection but confirmed 

the majority supported the 

installation of traffic lights. 

The other option, which is the 

city council’s preferred option, is 

to make both Gardiners Rd and 

Breens Rd left turn in and left 

turn out only, and installing a 

traffic-light controlled pedestrian 

crossing – which would cost 

$400,000.

from the editor’s desk 

THE PEOPLE have spoken (see page 1). 

They want traffic lights at the 

troublesome Harewood, Breens and 

Gardiners Rds intersection. 

Troublesome for motorists – but 

troublesome too for the city council. 

More than half of the 1085 public submissions on the 

intersection are in favour of the second option for planned 

improvements. But that will cost $1.2 million and the city 

council only has $400,000, earmarked for option one. That 

involves changes to the intersection’s layout. 

But the city council says it doesn’t have the other $800,000 for 

what people actually want. 

So if the city council decides to go with the majority, there 

are likely to be more delays to improving the intersection until 

funding is found.

Traffic decision welcomed 


Mark Wilson 

ONE OF the main drivers in 

opposing a traffic management 

plan for St Albans, Mark Wilson, 

has applauded its rejection. 

On Thursday, the city council 

voted not to endorse the Downstream 

Effects Management 

Plan, which was designed to 

mitigate traffic 

when the $240 

million Northern 

Corridor 

opens next 

year. 

Mr Wilson, 

who is a St Albans 

resident, 

helped organised 

a 

2400-signature petition opposing 

the DEMP last year as the 

community felt it prioritised 

vehicles above people. 

He said there is still a long way 

to go before the community get 

the outcome they want but the 

decision is a step in the right 

direction. 

“The overriding feeling is that 

the community is thankful that 

staff have tried their best and 

that they will continue to try 

their best,” Mr Wilson said. 

The DEMP did not address 

traffic volumes on Cranford St 

which were expected to more

than double from an existing

effectively splitting the community 

in half. 

Elected members unanimously 

passed the recommendations 

by the joint Linwood-Central- 

Heathcote and Papanui-Innes 

community boards to turn down 

the plan. The recommendations 

passed were slightly amended 

version from what the joint community 

boards resolved. 

In spite of the plan being 

turned down, one resolution 

was that staff proceed with the

completed before the CNC opens. 

Mr Wilson said the main 

project the community wants to 

see delivered is an “express bus 

service that reduces the number 

of single car commuters.” 

This was part of an alternative 

plan developed by traffic engineer 

Axel Wilke that uses two of 

the four lanes of the Northern 

Arterial for busses. 

Said Mr Wilke: “The agencies 

delivering the project are, at this 

point, considering a city-bound 

high-occupancy vehicle lane 

and express bus services for four 

hours per day. We argue that’s 

not good enough yet, and we will 

further work with the agencies 

to advance their thinking.”

FUNDING: If traffic lights are approved for the Harewood, 

Breens and Gardiners Rds intersection, the city council would 

need to allocate $800,000 in additional funding to the project. 

Possible lights funding concern 

•From page 1 

Mr Osborne said if the traffic 

lights are approved, the city 

council would need to allocate 

additional funding to the project 

as part of the Annual Plan and 

Long Term Plan process. 

This means another existing 

project would need to be deferred 

or a rates increase would 

be needed to provide 

the additional budget 

required. 

However, if the city 

council’s preferred option 

was approved, work 

could begin in the first 

half of 2020 as it has 

allocated $400,000 towards 

the upgrades and 

it would likely be eligible 

for a funding subsidy 

from the Government. 

City councillor and 

chairwoman of the 

infrastructure, transport 

and environment committee, 

Pauline Cotter 

said funding was “quite 

clearly spelt out in the 

document.” 

“The question is, did 

people read it properly or did 

people just vote emotionally and 

say ‘traffic lights sound like a 

good idea, let’s tick that’,” said Cr 

Cotter. 

“There’s a big queue for the 

money in Christchurch as we are 

all very aware of and this is not 

one of the most dangerous intersections 

in the city.” 

The intersection is currently 

ranked number 61 on a list of 

the city’s 100 most dangerous 

intersections. 

“It would seem quite bizarre to 

accelerate that above the priority 

programme and I think other 

communities could well question 

that and ask why it’s happening,” 

Cr Cotter said. 

But Harewood Ward city councillor 

Aaron Keown said 

the intersection is a “safety 

issue” and that other 

communities would not 

judge its funding if they 

“believed in democracy.” 

“If that’s the logic then 

we should apply it to funding 

community centres, 

swimming pools and all 

Aaron Keown 

the other things that are 

nice to have.” 

He said the city council 

can apply for a subsidy for 

the intersection from the 

New Zealand Transport 

Agency. 

“My expectation as an 

elected member and a 

ratepayer is that our staff 

would do that,” he said. 

Pauline Cotter 

“I will be keeping a 

very close eye on the application 

we make for the funding of the 

intersection to make sure it has 

the best chance possible of succeeding,” 

Cr Keown said. 

A report on the two options 

will come before the Fendalton- 

Waimairi-Harewood Community 

Board who will make 

a recommendation to the city 

council. 

After that, the city council will 

make its final decision. 

Fundraiser has dual role 

THE FIGHT to end period 

poverty is under way. 

The Fill-a-Bag fundraiser 

for The Good Fund is being 

held in 16 locations nationwide 

throughout June. 

Kimberli Schuitman, co-founder 

of The Good Fund, is hosting 

the Christchurch event from 

2-4pm on June 22 at the Landsdowne 

Community Centre. 

Ms Schuitman said the fundraiser 

pulled together two things 

that were extremely important 

to her. 

“Period poverty is rife in New 

Zealand and by talking about 

it we can break down taboos 

and create an awareness around 

this cycle of poverty that keeps 

children from achieving their 

learning milestones. It is about 

ensuring menstruating people 

in New Zealand have easy and 

affordable access to sustainable 

and more comfortable menstrual 

products,” she said. 

They are currently seeking 

donations of children’s clothing 

that will be recirculated from 

a family who no longer needs 

them to another in need to keep 

them out of a landfill, says Ms 

Schuitman. 

To date the quality of the 

clothing donated has been incredible, 

a lot of people will walk 

away with a real bargain. 

They are also looking for bags

“I’ll just keep a stringing 

machine and trot round the 

country and Wilding Park, 

picking up the odd thing when 

there’s a tournament on,” said 

Ralfe. 

“In smaller places like 

Greymouth or Kaikoura if 

you break a string on Saturday 

morning you can’t get it restrung, 

but: “I used to play veterans and 

take the machine with me. You 

can restring between games quite 

comfortably.” 

Ralfe isn’t just accustomed 

to doing restrings for talented 

recycled from online grocery orders 

that will be given on arrival 

to fill with baby clothes. 

Entry is $10 and anyone is welcome 

from parents, guardians 

to grandparents, Ms Schuitman 

said. 

There will be lots of other fun 

stuff happening as well as an 

information table about reusable 

menstrual products. 

“The fundraiser is an important 

event in bringing Christchurch 

communities together to 

share baby clothes, catch up with 

friends and raise awareness of 

period poverty in our community,” 

she said. 

“The Good fund is all about 

giving access to reusable menstrual 

products to people that 

would normally be unable to afford 

them,” Ms Schuitman said. 

All proceeds raised will go 

juniors and veteran players, every 

January he travels to Auckland 

for the ASB Classic where he has 

serviced rackets for the world’s 

best players including Serena 

Williams. 

“I went this year. I may have 

had my swansong. I’ve had 15 

years up there and I’m getting 

too old for it now. The hours are 

long and it’s fairly tough work, 

but I haven’t fully decided yet,” 

said Ralfe.

Fendalton centre may get more services 


ANOTHER ONE-stop shop may 

be on the cards for the northwest 

– this time in Fendalton. 

The city council is considering 

expanding the Fendalton Library 

Service Centre to offer postal 

services, bill payments and Metro 

card purchases. 

The city council also 

announced recently that its 

Papanui Service Centre will 

soon offer these services, as 

it has become a full NZ Post 

agent. The move prompted 

Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood 

Community Board chairman 

Sam MacDonald to request the 

same for the Fendalton centre. 

The Fendalton centre is 

currently closed while a $1.1 

million upgrade is made to 

the interior and exterior of the 

building. It is set to reopen on 

July 29. 

“When you’re spending money 

to redo the library like that, we 

should do it right.” 

Since the closure of the Fendalton 

Post Shop in 2015, the centre 

has been providing basic postal 

services. 

Mr MacDonald asked the city 


MERIVALE’S POST shop will

it has partnered with

Papanui Rd. 

NZ Post needed to 

find a new business

Kiwibank announced 

it will close the

payments and the purchase of 

Metro cards. 

“There are five schools within 

After July 1, Paper Tree Local 

will continue to deliver the 

postal services and bill payments 

which are currently available 

at the store. All postal services 

will be available from 

July 1 but bill paying 

services will start on July 

30. 

Paper Tree manager 

Hiren Amin, who also 

runs Papercraft, which 

is a partner of Lincoln 

NZ Post, wanted to open 

a second location and 

continue the partnership. 

“We’ve seen how much 

the community value 

these services at our Lincoln 

location, and we want the 

Merivale community to know 

we will be ready to help out 

with their postal needs from 

day one. Partnering with NZ 

close proximity to the library, 

including two large secondary 

schools – Burnside High School 

and Christchurch Boys’ High 

Post is exciting for us, and we 

can’t wait to serve the Merivale 

community.” 

Said NZ Post head of retail 

Mark Yagmich: “This model of 

working with local businesses 

works well for our customers, 

who now also have access to 

our partner’s products. We are 

excited to continue working in 

this way in this location.” 

“It is also a more financially 

sustainable way of working 

for NZ Post in an ever-changing 

mix of postal services usage . . . 

it’s also good for the businesses 

we work with, as they enjoy 

additional income both from 

transacting postal services on 

our behalf and by having more 

customers coming through 

their doors to pick up their 

parcel or send a postcard,” he 

said. 

School. (The community board) 

believe that having the option to 

purchase Metro cards from the 

service centre would be of great 

convenience to our residents,” he 

said. “We are also conscious of 

the needs of our older residents, 

who often prefer to pay their bills 

in person rather than online.” 

A response from chief 

executive Karleen Edwards said 

the city council is in discussion 

with NZ Post about providing 

bill payment services within the 

Fendalton area. 

“Proximity of other NZ Post 

plus centres and customer 

demand are considerations that 

they will investigate further,” she 

said. 

An update is expected by the 

end of the month. 

Dr Edwards said the city 

council is also in discussion with 

Environment Canterbury over 

Metro card services to cover gaps 

in coverage. 

“Further work is under way 

to identify high demand areas 

and the development of an 

appropriate rollout strategy.”

Retired ‘musketeers’ still helping 


A TRIO of retired friends – 

dubbed “the three musketeers” 

– were recognised for their 

services to Ronald McDonald 

House on Monday. 

Gus Gale, of Belfast, David 

Chappie (Avonhead) and Neil 

Fleming (Ilam), all former 

teachers, received an award 

from Volunteering Canterbury 

for their work over the past five 

years. 

They meet every Wednesday 

morning to help with a range 

of tasks at Ronald McDonald 

House on Cashel St, such as 

keeping the grounds tidy, 

fixing toys, washing waste bins, 

plumbing and electrical repairs. 

Said Mr Chappie: “I was 

surprised because we certainly 

don’t come here to look for any 

accolade, we come here because 

it’s a worthwhile organisation 

that we have heard about that we 

could help at ground level.” 

“The people here are so 

accommodating and making 

everyone feel so welcome. The 

families are going through a 

tough patch in their lives but 

there’s a joy all the way from 

the staff to the mums and dads 

and the kids being picked up 

and cuddled. There’s a quality 

here I don’t think you would 

find in many other institutions. 

It’s a quality based on love 

and concern for one’s human 

beings.” 

Ronald McDonald 

House offers support and 

accommodation to families with 

children in hospital. 

The three musketeers’ shared 

background in education adds 

up to a total of more than 120 

years at primary, secondary and 

university level. 


VOLUNTEERS: Friends 

and former teachers David 

Chappie, Neil Fleming 

and Gus Gale meet every 

Wednesday to undertake 

odd jobs at Ronald 

McDonald House. 

Said Mr Fleming: “In those 

years we have accumulated 

some useful skills that Ronald 

McDonald House finds helpful.” 

Mr Fleming started 

volunteering to use up his excess 

energy. 

Mr Chappie and Mr Gale 

agreed to help “on one 

condition” – after each 

morning’s work they go out for 

lunch and a beer. 

“We decided to set a pseudochallenge 

by limiting our choice 

of lunch place to new or recently 

changed venues. We range 

widely with a requirement that 

the selected venue has to serve 

beer and it has to be new to us,” 

Mr Fleming said. 

He said each lunch is spiced 

with recollections from their 

friendship, which has lasted at 

least 10 years. 

“Some (stories) stray from 

the truth but have greater 

entertainment value,” he said.



Gender neutral loos for Burnside High 

• By Tatiana Gibbs 

THE SOUTH Island’s largest 

high school will soon have a 

gender neutral bathroom. 

Burnside High School is 

following a nationwide trend 

of being inclusive and diverse 

by planning a gender neutral 

toilet facility, which is due to 

be completed 

next month 

for use in term 

three. 

Principal 

Phil Holstein 

said the 

move was 

in response 

to students 

Phil Holstein 

who wanted 

a gender 

diverse space where they feel 

comfortable. 

The new bathroom will be in 

the school’s central block. 

“This is a big step for us in 

order to acknowledge and 

recognise our gender neutral 

students,” Mr Holstein said. 

Burnside High follows 

Beckenham Primary School 

and Lincoln High School, 

which also have gender neutral 

bathrooms. 

The trend has been supported 

by the Ministry of Education, 

which has funded the facility at 

Burnside High. 

The school has a total roll of 

INCLUSIVE: Burnside High School’s new gender neutral bathroom is due to be finished next 

month in time for term three. 

about 2500 students and has a 

LGBTQ+ club, which has been 

in place for four years. 

Teacher in charge of the 

club Karen Healey said 

Burnside High has students 

who feel “uncomfortable using 

bathrooms that don’t match 

their gender identity.” 

“We really want schools 

to be a safe and supporting 

environment for students, and 

that can mean adjusting our 

mind, language and even our 

buildings,” she said. 

It follows Burnside High’s 

decision to open up the 

school uniform regulations to 

interpretation by students. 

Students can now choose 

what school uniform items they 

are comfortable in, rather than 

being restricted to clothing by 

gender identity.

Dead kauri 

tree to be 

replaced 

in Papanui 

A KAURI tree which died several 

weeks after it was planted at St 

James Park, Papanui, will be 

replaced by a japanese maple tree. 

The 12m kauri had to be 

removed due to a problem with 

its roots. The city council will also 

add some flowering cherry trees 

along the main path and several 

wollemi pines. 

Wollemi pines are considered 

one of the world’s rarest plants 

and are critically endangered 

in the wild. The oldest wollemi 

tree fossil is 200 million-yearsold, 

but the first living plant was 

only discovered 25 years ago in 

Australia’s Blue Mountains. 

Papanui-Innes Community 

Board member John Stringer 

said the kauri tree’s decline was 

mainly caused by girdling roots, 

which meant the tree strangled 

itself below ground. 

He said city council staff dug up 

and water blasted the roots and on 

inspection found the root system 

was deformed. 

Due to the advanced state of 

the tree’s decline and its root 

deformities, corrective measures 

were not an option.

COTSWOLD SCHOOL’S Freya Hall 

hardly ever stops dancing. 

Outside of the five hours she spends 

practicing at Silhouette Studios City in 

Linwood every week, Freya, 7, constantly 

uses dance to “express how she is feeling.” 

Her mum, Laura Hall, who lives in 

Bishopdale, said Freya will dance to a 

genre of music that fits her mood until it is 

time to go to bed. 

Now Freya has an opportunity to take 

the next leap in her goal to become a fulltime 

professional dancer. 

Freya will compete at the Evolution 

Dance finals on the Gold Coast next year. 

She qualified after finishing in the top five 

for her age at the national competition in 

Christchurch last month. 

Freya will need to learn two new solo 

dances before she takes the international 

stage – one jazz and one contemporary. 

Mrs Hall said in spite of the task being 

“quite a big undertaking”, Freya has not 

shown any nerves yet. 

“It’s a pretty big deal for her,” Mrs Hall 

said. 

Freya fell in love with dance about 

three years ago after she went along to 

a ballroom class with her older brother 

Quinn. 

“She started doing ballroom in 

the beginning and that led to more 

opportunities within the studio to do 

other types of dancing. After about six 

months she was competing solo. It went 

A VERSION of Disney’s Beauty and the 

Beast will be brought to life at Papanui 

High School this week. 

The school’s annual production, called 

Beauty and the Beast Jr, will involve 68 

students and starts tomorrow at 7pm. 

It will run everyday in the lead up to a 

matinee performance at 2pm on Saturday. 

All performances will take place in the 

school hall, 30 Langdons Rd. 

Beauty and the Beast Jr tells the story of 

Belle, an adventurous young girl, and the 

Beast, her hideous captor, who is actually a 

young prince trapped under a spell. 

In order to break the spell, the Beast

from nothing to a lot really quickly” Mrs 

Hall said. She now competes regularly in 

both jazz and lyrical styles and is also a 

ballroom and Latin dancer. 

“She’s always the first one at practice,” 

said Mrs Hall. 

To fundraise for the upcoming trip, Mrs 

Hall has launched a Givealittle page and 

will be selling plants donated by people in 

the community. 

Freya also busks outside Bishopdale

her brother.

Unique approach 

to helping kids thrive! 

For parents that have children struggling 

with anxiety, depression, behavioural 

issues, or in fact, anything that is troubling 

them or causing disruption to family life, it 

can sometimes seem that no-one can help 

and nothing works. 

Amanda Staniford, founder and 

director of Kids Life Academy, says many 

parents come to her with issues like these, 

desperate to get help for their children, 

which they haven’t found anywhere else. 

Providing that help is the purpose of Kids 

Life Academy, and is Amanda’s passion. 

Drawing on her diverse background and 

experience in education, including special 

needs, emotional intelligence, drama 

teaching, neuro linguistic programming, 

educational kinesiology and life coaching, 

Amanda began developing Kids Life 

Academy five years ago. 

She has created programmes for 

primary-age children (Rock Solid Kids) 

and pre-school children (Little Pebbles). 

Teens have access to Amanda’s expertise 

via group or individual coaching sessions. 

“I have a different approach, which is 

holistic and unique. For me the three 

keys to helping children overcome any 

problems are imagination, visualisation 

and belief.” 

“The real magic wand is the child’s 

own mind.” - Jose Ortega Y Gasset 

The weekly classes are based on a term 

theme, which caters for the immediate 

needs of the students enrolled. 

“The children have a lot of fun, and 

are encouraged to use their imagination 

through drama. The drama platform 

allows children to explore their thoughts 

and feelings in a supported and safe 

environment,” Amanda says. 

“It allows me to understand their 

particular issues and help them develop the 

skills and techniques to overcome them. 

“They also have a journal that they 

use to record what they are ‘happy and 

grateful’ for each week and this is shared 

at the beginning of each lesson. 

“Each child is a treasured member of 

our KLA family and as such I place a great 

deal of importance on communication 

with parents.” 

Another aspect of Amanda’s work, 

which can be very helpful for some 

families, is the kids coaching sessions. 

Amanda is currently taking bookings 

and enrolments for next term, with 

classes being held after school on 

Mondays at the Waimairi Community 

Centre. Numbers are limited to 16 per 

class. July School Holiday programme 

bookings and enquiries are also welcome.

Bishopdale Village Mall 

Pharmacy offers 

natural remedies for 

stress and anxiety 

Stress and anxiety can be caused 

by various situations in our lives, 

and at this time of the year 

exams, for example, can 

create enormous pressure 

for young students. 

When coupled with 

the winter bugs that 

are doing the rounds, 

it means students can find it 

difficult to focus and perform at 

their best. 

For them, or anyone 

dealing with problems 

like this, some 

advice from trusted 

professionals can 

prove very useful. 

Always there to 

help, the pharmacists 

at Unichem Bishopdale 

Pharmacy suggest natural 

stress remedies may provide solutions, 

and they are offering free samples of two 

particular remedies so customers can try 

them first. 

GO Stress Remedy contains L-Theanine, 

the compound found in green and black 

tea, which has been associated with relaxing 

and calming effects. Other potential 

benefits include improving clarity and 

focus and supporting a more restful and 

prolonged sleep. Also, it is not associated 

with the drowsiness that can be caused by 

other supplements or medicines for stress 

and anxiety. 

GO Stress Remedy contains L-Theanine 

in a concentrated form and is a great option 

to try for those experiencing stress or 

requiring a greater level of focus and clarity. 

The pharmacists also suggest C0Q10 

supplements, which have the potential to 

increase energy levels and support and 

protect body organs, particularly the heart 

and brain. 

CoQ10 is an enzyme involved in 

energy production. There are a number 

of factors that can affect the CoQ10 levels 

in our bodies, including age and certain 

medications (such as statins, which are 

usually taken for high cholesterol). 

Both these are available as free 

samples to try at Unichem Bishopdale 

Pharmacy, but as with all 

supplements or medicines it 

is important to talk with a 

pharmacist to make sure 

they are right for you. 

This includes checking 

to see if they interact with 

anything you may already be 

taking. 

Whenever you call into 

the Unichem Bishopdale 

Pharmacy there is a 

pharmacist available to 

provide personalised 

advice on medicines, 

natural health products 

and any health issues 

you may have. 

Unichem Bishopdale 

Pharmacy is conveniently 

located in the Bishopdale 

Village Mall. Opening hours are

Golden tan, gorgeous 

nails for the school ball 

Every girl wants to look stunning for her school ball, and that 

requires some preparation. 

Michelle of Euphoria Beauty in Bishopdale suggests having 

a spray tan to give the skin a natural, golden glow and 

complement the ball gown. 

“The spray tan I use looks beautiful and has a wonderful 

cherry aroma,” Michelle says. “It takes 20 minutes to 

apply and lasts seven to 10 days.” 

A full body spray tan usually costs $35, but for the 

ball season – June and July – it costs $25 at Euphoria 

Beauty. 

The other ball season special at Euphoria is shellac 

nails. Usually $55, they are $45 in June and July. The 

nails are available in a wide range of gorgeous colours, 

application takes 25 to 30 minutes and they last for at 

least two weeks without chipping. 

Bookings for these treatments should be made a 

week ahead of the ball. 

As well as spray tanning and shellac nails, 

Euphoria offers the full range of beauty services 

including waxing, facials and massage. For the 

facials, Michelle uses Environ cosmeceuticals 

from South Africa. 

Euphoria Beauty is located on the ground floor 

of the YMCA building at Bishopdale Mall, with 

plenty of parking outside. 

Opening hours are Tuesday to Friday 9.30am- 

5.30pm with late nights till 8pm Tuesday and 

Thursday, and Saturday 10am-4pm. To book an 

appointment, phone 359 3445.

Silver medal exceeds expectation 


JUST ONE team practice the 

night before leaving for Mongolia 

didn’t get in the way of Ashley 

Strawbridge and her New 

Zealand team winning silver at 

the FIBA Under 18 3x3 World 

Cup. 

The 17-year-old Rangi Ruru 

Girls’ School basketballer was 

part of the New Zealand team 

along with Sharne Pupuke- 

Robati, Tayla Dalton and Charlisse 

Leger-Walker who outdid 

expectations to reach the final of 

the tournament in Ulaanbaatar, 

Mongolia, before falling to the 

United States. 

“I’m still riding the high, it’s 

been really cool to have people 

at school ask about and be able 

to share the experience,” said 

Strawbridge. 

The team had next to no experience 

playing 3x3 basketball, but 

were selected on their strengths 

from the five-aside game which 

would translate well to the high 

intensity 3x3 format. 

New Zealand, seeded 15th, 

went into the tournament with 

little expectation in the 20-strong 

World Cup. However, they finished 

second in their pool with 

wins over Hungary (16-9), Russia 

(14-2) and Poland (21-4). Their 

only pool loss came against the 

United States 11-20. 

“The fact we got to the quarter 

finals was amazing in itself,” said 

Strawbridge. 

In the quarter-finals they 

defeated Japan 14-12 in an 

extremely tight match which 

went to overtime. The win set up 

a semi-final with No. 1 ranked 

China, which New Zealand swept 

aside 21-15 before going down to 

the United States 13-19 in a more 

than respectable performance. 

“When we first played them we 

were like: ‘Oh my god we’re playing 

America’,” said Strawbridge. 

“In the final we knew we had 

no pressure and all eyes were on 

them.” 

Strawbridge’s biggest contribution 

to the Kiwi effort came on 

the defensive end which saw her 

touted as one of the best defensive 

players at the tournament. 

She says the biggest challenge 

came against the United States. 

“They are just so quick, so it felt 

really good any time you could 

stay in front of them and stop 

them from scoring,” she said. 

Strawbridge will now turn her 

attention to representing New 

Zealand in the five-a-side game 

at the Oceania Championships in 

Noumea, New Caledonia, from 

August 19-24.

Your money, your 

home, your choice 

Merivale. 

These days, it’s all too easy to feel as 

though we are just a number when we 

work with the banks. Kim at Mylend 

understands, and wants to make sure 

that her clients are treated as individuals 

with tailored finance packages that suit 

them, their situation and their future. 

Having previously worked with one of 

the major banks, and real estate firms, 

Kim’s background enables her to have full 

knowledge of all transactions to do with 

home lending. 

Mylend’s founder Kim Laurenson has 

longstanding relationships with all the 

banks across Canterbury and she can 

negotiate on your behalf to get the very best 

deal for you – better still, the banks pay 

for this service, it’s free for the customer. 

She does her best to demystify the jargon 

and make the process as simple and 

straightforward as possible. She appreciates 

that as a customer of the banks, you 

have choices, and she believes in finding 

solutions that best match your needs. “It’s 

not a one-size-fits all,” she says. Whether 

it is your first home or you are refinancing, 

Kim knows that “it’s your money, your 

home, and your needs that should be 

considered.” She will help you find out if 

what the bank is offering is right for you, or 

whether something else would work better. 

With over seven years’ experience 

working in this industry, and ably 

supported by Operations Manager 

Georgina Bell, Kim has a thorough 

knowledge of our local banks’ processes 

and options. Buying your first home, 

moving house or simply refinancing to 

take advantage of the current interest 

rates can be complicated. Kim is there to 

ensure arranging finance is as stress-free as 

possible. 

Kim is completely impartial and 

independent and she will talk you through 

your options, and help you make a sensible 

and informed decision. Kim explains that 

with interest rates as low as 3.85%, this is a 

wonderful time to refix your lending and 

use the rates to your advantage. She will 

sit with you and help you to maximise the 

repayments to the bank, so your lending is 

paid off faster. 

With so much experience, the Mylend 

team find most of their clients are 

returning customers or are referred to 

them by word-of-mouth. They trust Kim’s 

advice and know that she and Georgina 

are there to help them navigate lending 

for long-term financial success. Visit 

Mylend.co.nz or call Kim directly on

FOCUS ON HEALTH 

Dilo Oil 

the remarkable 

skin rejuvenator 

Until Rachel Hunter’s popular TV 

series “TOUR OF BEAUTY” Dilo Oil was 

relatively unknown being one of the bestkept 

secrets of the Pacific Islands. It may 

however be the number one natural beauty 

oil available as it possesses powerful natural 

skin regeneration, anti-aging and healing 

properties. 

According to ethnobotanist Chris 

Kilham, Dilo (pronounced dee-low) Oil 

is a powerful skin regenerator as it is one 

of the most effective agents in promoting 

the regeneration and formation of new 

tissue, thereby accelerating wound healing 

and the growth of healthy skin. Dilo Oil 

is super-absorbing and nourishing and 

can penetrate all three layers of the skin, 

offering exceptional cell hydration and 

regeneration. As well as this, Dilo Oil has 

potent anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, 

antifungal and antioxidant properties. 

Traditionally, Dilo Oil is used to keep 

the skin young and youthful and for just 

about any skin complaint. Some of the 

conditions for which it is considered 

helpful include abrasions, cuts and cracks, 

acne and acne scars, pimples, blemishes, 

stretch marks, wrinkles, blisters, burns 

(including chemical and radiation), 

diabetic sores, rashes, shaving irritation, 

dry or scaly skin, eczema, psoriasis, 

dermatitis, herpes sores (cold-sores), insect 

bites and stings, rheumatism, pain, sciatica, 

shingles, sunburn, rosacea, athlete’s foot, 

skin eruptions, warts, skin ulcers and sores, 

nappy rash and almost any other skin 

ailment and often with incredible results. 

Many beauty and skincare products 

on the market today contain unnatural 

ingredients that can be toxic and may even 

contribute to disease. Generally the benefits 

are exaggerated and often only temporary 

or camouflage. Marshall’s Dilo Oil is 100% 

pure and certified organic. It has been coldpressed 

from the Dilo nut and contains 

absolutely no additives. Polynesians and 

Southeast Asians have revered Dilo Oil for 

centuries believing it to be a sacred gift of 

nature and the Gods. Dilo Oil contains a 

unique blend of fatty acids that stimulate 

and supports the skins natural healing 

process through the growth of new healthy 

skin tissue. It is a remarkable product we 

highly recommend to everyone. A 50ml 

bottle is $19.90 and 100ml only $32.50.

NATURAL HEALING & BEAUTY OIL 

As seen on Rachel Hunter’s Tour of Beauty 

Revered for centuries by Polynesians & Southeast Asians for its remarkable skin 

anti-aging & healing properties, Dilo oil comes from the nut of the sacred Dilo 

tree, “the tree of a thousand virtues”. Dilo oil is often called the beauty oil as it 

can penetrate all three layers of the skin offering exceptional cell hydration & 

regeneration. It has a unique ability to stimulate the growth of healthy skin cells 

& this gives it powerful anti-aging & healing properties that can help reduce 

lines, blemishes, scars & damage to the skin. It also possesses 

anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antifungal & antioxidant properties. 

Dilo Oil Supports 

• Anti-aging & skin regeneration, helps reduce lines, 

blemishes, scars & stretch marks GREAT GIFT 

• Skin hydration 

• Skin repair & growth, helps feed the skin & stimulate healthy new cells

Inflammation 

an underlying factor in just about 

every chronic health condition! 

Inflammation can have a major impact 

on our health and quality of life. It is a 

sign our body is aggressively trying to 

protect and heal itself. Common signs of 

inflammation can be redness, pain, heat, 

swelling and stiffness. Acute inflammation 

is the short term inflammation when you 

bang your knee or hurt your back. Chronic 

inflammation is a disease that can affect 

our overall health and life expectancy. 

It is conditions like arthritis, allergies, 

asthma, inflammatory bowel disease, 

eczema, diabetes, cancer, Alzheimer’s and 

in fact most diseases. An example of the 

seriousness of chronic inflammation is that 

inflammation in the arteries causes plaque 

to build up in the arteries that leads to 

hardening of the arteries or atherosclerosis. 

If this plaque continues to build it reduces 

blood flow to the organs. This causes blood 

pressure to increase. The next danger 

especially with raised blood pressure is 

some of the plaque can break off forming 

a clot that can block blood flow. These clots 

are responsible for the majority of heart 

attacks and strokes. 

Natural supplements like turmeric 

(curcumin), boswellia, Artemisia, omega-3 

fatty acids, cider vinegar, magnesium, msm 

and vitamin-C can play an important part 

in reducing inflammation and speeding the 

healing process. 

Curcumin is the active ingredient in 

turmeric. The problem is there is only a 

Inflammation affects our quality of life. It is associated with pain, swelling, 

heat, redness & stiffness. Inflammation is a part of most diseases even 

the aging process. These diseases include: Eczema, Asthma, Allergies, 

Cardiovascular, Alzheimer’s, Cancer, IBS, Arthritis, Thyroid, Diabetes & 

many more. Natural anti-inflammatories effectively reduce inflammation 

at its source while also stopping the initiation of inflammation in the first 

place. This leads to a faster more efficient healing process & a better 

quality of life. 

GOOD HEALTH TURMERIC EXTRA STRENGTH: 

Provides powerful natural health & anti-inflammatory support. Excellent for 

pain, swelling, stiffness & joint issues. Contains scientifically researched 

CurcuWin Turmeric that offers enhanced absorption by more than 46X. 

Also includes AKBA Boswellia & Sweet wormwood both highly effective 

natural supplements.

small amount in the spice and you would 

have to have a large amount to obtain much 

benefit. Scientists have thru developed 

special concentrated supplements that 

offer enhanced absorption. CuruWin as 

used in Good Health TURMERIC EXTRA 

STRENGTH is clinically proven to be 

46 times more absorbable than standard 

turmeric supplements. It offers powerful 

health support. 

Boswellia (Indian Frankincense herb) has 

been used for centuries in Asian countries 

for chronic inflammation and other 

diseases including certain cancers. Good 

Health TURMERIC EXTRA STRENGTH 

contains a potent extract of Boswellia. 

Good Health TURMERIC EXTRA 

STRENGTH also contains Artemisia annua 

or Sweet Wormwood. Artemisia has been 

shown to possess anti-inflammatory, antiviral, 

antioxidant, antimicrobial, joint and 

cartilage support benefits. It is also being 

researched for use in cancer treatments as it 

has been found to promote apoptosis (cell 

death) of cancer cells, without harming 

healthy cells. 

Omega-3 fish oil also offers powerful 

anti-inflammatory benefits without the side 

effects of prescription anti-inflammatory 

drugs. It also offers numerous health 

benefits. 

Natural supplements can be highly 

beneficial in supporting your good health. 

At Marshall’s Health and Natural Therapy 

our experienced Natural Health 

Advisers can help you choose 

the right supplements for you 

as everyone is different. We 

can advise you on the best 

times to take the supplements, 

the right dosage and how to 

obtain maximum benefits. 

We specialise in helping you 

optimise your health through 

correct supplementation, diet 

and lifestyle. Often it is the 

small changes that can make a 

huge difference. Better health 

can be achieved naturally.

HOME & HEATING 

Get rid of 

dampness in 

your house 

Now with the colder and wetter weather 

on its way, home owners are focusing on 

ways to make their homes comfortable, 

warm and healthy for their families 

throughout winter. Rising damp is an issue 

that affects many of our older properties 

which suffer from poor, or no, insulation. 

In Canterbury especially, post-quake, many 

people have relocated to homes that suffer 

from rising damp which can be associated 

with health problems. Independent tests 

have shown that up to 40 litres of water 

can rise from the ground and enter a 

house every day, leading to mildew, mould, 

condensation and musty smells. Moulds 

can produce various allergic reactions 

and the frail, elderly and very young are 

especially vulnerable. 

Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd is a 

locally owned and operated firm. The 

team understands the problems caused 

by rising damp and are there to help. 

They will come to your damp home 

and pump a lightweight, flowable foam 

concrete under your timber floored home. 

Specially adapted for our New Zealand 

conditions and applications it provides a 

layer of protection against rising moisture. 

An unexpected benefit that the team at 

Canterbury Foam Concrete have noticed 

recently, is that many owners of properties 

which had underfloor foam concrete 

installed, reported that it also provided 

protection against liquefaction after 

the earthquakes. 

Contact Canterbury Foam Concrete 

Ltd now for your free, no obligation 

quote and complimentary appraisal of 

your underfloor ventilation needs. Phone 

03 376 4608 or 0508FOAMCO for more 

information. 

Does your range 

hood suck? 

Whether it plain sucks, or whether it 

doesn’t suck enough, or even if it is a noisy 

sucker - Smooth-Air can help. 

Smooth-Air can either improve your 

current range hood, or custom build to 

your specifications. 

“We can take your attractive but noisy, 

underperforming range hood and retrofit 

it with one of our whisper quiet remote 

extraction fans.” says Richard Jack, 

Regional Manager of Smooth-Air, “We 

have fans which can sit in the ceiling space, 

or outside on your wall or roof to make it 

extra quiet.” 

In-house testing showed a difference of 

20dbA (decibels) between a remote fan 

from Smooth-Air and a common in-hood 

fan range hood. This corresponds to a 

quadrupling in perceived noise level. 

Range hood conversions include removal 

of existing fan and rewiring for new remote 

fan. Your local sparky can easily carry out 

installation of the new fan. 

For kitchens not suited to a standard 

range hood, Smooth-Air can manufacture 

and powdercoat a bespoke range hood to 

match your décor. Custom built range 

hoods have the benefit of being designed 

specifically for your house. 

As well as being whisper quiet, Smooth- 

Air’s remote fans are powerful - sucking 

out cooking smells and moisture so they 

don’t circulate around your home. 

Moisture in your home can cause mould 

and mildew on your walls and furnishings. 

It is also bad for the health of the occupants. 

Household cooking is a major source of 

internal moisture, therefore an effective 

kitchen extraction system can make a 

significant difference to internal moisture 

levels. 

Smooth-Air can also help with other 

forms of ventilation, such as bathroom 

extraction, condensation reduction or 

whole house ventilation. 

Contact Smooth-Air on 0800 SMOOTH 

(0800 766 684) to ask how they can help 

you with your kitchen extraction, as well 

as any other ventilation requirements.

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 are 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.”
