CITY COUNCIL hopeful 

Phil Mauger says he will finish 

cleaning up a pile of shingle near 

The Bower this week. 

Last month, Pegasus Post 

reported on the Coastal- 

Burwood Community Board’s 

bid to remove 

the shingle piles 

from a car park 

alongside the 

Avon River, near 

the intersection of 

New Brighton and 

Wainoni Rds. 

The shingle was 

being dumped 

illegally. 

The article prompted 

Phil 

Mauger 

contractor Phil Mauger, who 

is running against three-term 

Burwood Ward city councillor 

Glenn Livingstone in October’s 

local body elections, to get his 

staff and a digger to clean most 

of it up. 

Mr Mauger told Pegasus Post 

he would complete the job as 

soon as his staff were back in the 

area.

from the editor’s desk 

A MAJOR dust-up (puns entirely intended) 

in the build-up to the local body elections 

(see page 1). 

The protagonists are Phil Mauger and the 

sitting councillor Glenn Livingstone, who 

both want the Burwood Ward seat. Only 

one can get it. 

Mauger has used his clean-up of some of the shingle pile 

opposite The Bower near the New Brighton Rd/Wainoni Rd 

roundabout as an electioneering platform. 

That of course has been picked up by the Pegasus Post, which 

has got reaction from Livingstone, who not surprisingly says it is 

electioneering. 

That in turn has led to a sharp retort from Mauger, who 

appears to be tiring by the constant reference to the fact he 

doesn’t live in the ward. 

We’ll keep you posted . . .

Pools’ fence may ruin ocean view 

• By Louis Day 

PEOPLE USING the hot water 

pools in New Brighton will have 

to peer through timber slats to 

see the ocean. 

The $11.2 million pool complex 

is currently under construction 

and is expected 

to be open early 

next year. 

Development 

Christchurch Ltd 

chief executive 

Rob Hall said 

timber slats from 

Martha 

Baxendell 

Rebecca 

Tavete 

80cm to 1.3m 

tall would be 

installed on the 

beach side of the 

pools to protect 

users from 

easterly winds. 

Mr Hall said 

people would 

still be able to 

see the ocean 

through the 5cm 

gaps between the 

timber slats. 

“A solid glass 

IN THE WAY: The timber slat fence around the planned New Brighton hot water pools could 

obscure the ocean views. 

fence was considered, however, 

we know that sea spray quickly 

turns glass opaque and unsightly, 

and a solid glass fence would also 

cause unpleasant downdrafts for 

pool users,” he said. 

New Brighton Project coordinator 

Martha Baxendell 

was concerned the slats would 

obscure the view. 

“I think the biggest thing was 

that we wanted to know that we 

were still in New Brighton, I just 

hope it is not this big old fence 

that we can hardly see through, “ 

she said. 

Ms Baxendell’s partner 

Robbie Baigent, who got a lot 

of feedback after posting the 

hot pools plan on The People’s 

Independent Republic of New 

Brighton Facebook page, felt the 

community had been sold one 

thing and given another. 

“All the early imagery showed 

a fence but with a series of glass 

panels which I would have had 

no problem with,” he said. 

“It’s just a real shame, we have 

got one of the most amazing 

vistas across the city.” 

New Brighton Business 

and Landowners Association 

chairwoman Rebecca Tavete is 

confident the hot pools will still 

be a success. 

“I don’t think many people will 

be going to the pool to look at 

the ocean anyway. If you look at 

Hanmer and the hot pools there 

you are either sitting around 

gazing into your partner’s eyes or 

you are sitting around with some 

friends chatting away,” she said. 

Coastal Ward city councillor 

David East labelled the slats a 

“win-win” situation. 

“From the point of view of 

breaking wind, it makes sense. 

I also think it is possible to have 

a more than adequate view with 

the slats,” he said.

Thank you for 

helping your 

Fall Zones 

community 

To all of you who have had your 

trees trimmed before they became 

a problem, thank you for keeping all 

the families in your community warm, 

happy, healthy and connected. 

You can be proud of the fact that you have allowed your 

neighbours to stay warm, cook dinner and even charge 

their mobile phones. You may not have realised that what 

you’ve done has had much impact, but from all of us here 

at Orion, we just want to say thank you. 

Notice and Growth limit zones 

B 

A 

Power line voltage A. Growth limit zone B. Notice zone 

66,000 volts 4.0m 5.0m 

33,000 volts 2.5m 3.5m 

11,000 volts 1.6m 2.6m 

400/230 volts 0.5m 1.5m 

We’re not exaggerating. 

On our network, 10-20% of all unplanned power outages are 

caused by trees — including vegetation — coming into contact 

with power lines. Other than this, fire damage to property from 

branches sparking in dry conditions and serious injury from 

electrocution from contact with trees touching power lines are 

also possible consequences of not maintaining your trees. 

How close is too close? 

While most damage is caused by trees falling on power lines, 

significant risk exists from trees merely touching them. This risk 

increases the higher the voltage of the power line. 

The minimum distances that must be maintained between trees 

and power lines, as defined in the Electricity (Hazards from 

Trees) Regulations 2003, are outlined in the diagrams above. 

All vegetation should be kept out of the growth limit zone and 

preferably the notice zone. 

Sometimes it may not be practical to have a tree trimmed at the 

rate at which it grows and unfortunately, this means it may need 

to be removed. Other situations may require trees to be removed, 

most commonly when they are at a high risk of falling due to 

disease or adverse weather events. 

Where do I start? 

Before you begin, remember to keep yourself, and those around 

you, safe. We recognise that not everyone is experienced in tree 

trimming and are happy to advise you on what to do. We can arrange 

for trees near power lines to be trimmed at your expense, however 

we recommend you hire professionals to safely carry out the work. 

If you or someone working for you intends to work within four 

metres of power lines, a close approach consent is required from 

Orion before you start. As a tree owner, you may be liable for any 

damage caused by carrying out trimming or felling of trees. 

Will I be fined if I don’t comply? 

If a cut or trim notice is given to you and you fail to have the tree 

trimmed and/or advise us of the time and location of the trim 

without a reasonable excuse, this is an offence. This will make you 

liable for a fine not exceeding $10,000. If the offence continues, 

you will be liable for a further fine of not more than $500 for every 

day or part day during which the offence continues. 

More info can be found on our website and if 

you have any questions or notice any trees 

touching power lines in your area, please call 

us on 03 363 9898 or 0800 363 9898.

Clock tower repairs set to start 


THE NEW Brighton clock tower 

repairs will begin this month 

after a long delay. 

Contractors Cook Brothers 

Construction Canterbury have 

been awarded the tender for 

fixing the New Brighton and 

Scarborough clock towers. This 

should be done by the start of 

next year. 

The repairs were supposed to 

start in September last year, but 

were delayed after detailed investigation 

revealed more damage 

and overdue maintenance-related 

issues than expected. 

New Brighton 

Florists owner 

Pauline Turner 

said it was about 

time a date was 

confirmed for the 

repairs and was 

“thrilled” by this. 

“It’s taken 

Robbie 

Baigent 

forever. I didn’t 

think we could 

actually afford 

all the scaffolding for all these 

almost years, so I’m thrilled to 

see it. It’s our Taj Mahal.” 

South of India restaurant 

manager Damodar Reddy said 

overseas tourists visiting New 

Brighton would be pleased to 

see the plastic around the tower 

removed and the repairs begin. 

“Some customers from Australia 

or somewhere else . . . they 

ask what happened to the clock 

tower. 

“They will be happy, definitely.” 

New Brighton Business and 

Landowners Association chairwoman 

Rebecca Tavete said the 

repairs had been a long time 

coming, but was hopeful they 

would go to plan and boost community 

spirits. 

“A bit disappointing, you 

know, we all know that there 

was a bit of money spent on the 

scaffolding and we all have the 

thoughts around it could have 

happened a lot faster. 

“But, the result being is that it 

is now being done, so I think it’s 

just about focusing on moving 

forward, really, keep the community 

positive that it’s happening.” 

Coastal-Burwood Community 

Board deputy chairman Tim 

Sintes, who has previously been 

critical of the delay in repairs, 

said six months was still a long 

time to wait for these to be 

finished 

New Brighton resident Robbie 

Baigent said he worked in construction 

and said the delay in 

awarding tenders and completing 

the repairs was understandable. 

“I know how long it takes 

to get this stuff sorted out. It 

could have been done a little bit 

quicker in my point of view, but 

it all takes time. 

“It will be great just to see 

them get into it now and get it 

done.” 

REPAIRS: Restoration work on the New Brighton clock tower 

will begin this month. 

Wheelchair user 

safety near 

hospital to be 

discussed 


A MEETING to try and improve 

the safety of wheelchair users 

crossing the Burwood and 

Mairehau Rds intersection will 

be held next Tuesday. 

New Zealand Spinal Trust 

representatives will meet with 

city council staff and Burwood 

Ward city councillor Glenn 

Livingstone to make a case for 

traffic lights to replace the four 

traffic islands and roundabout, 

which are the only protection for 

Burwood Hospital patients crossing 

the road. 

Since Pegasus Post first 

reported on the spinal trust’s 

calls for a meeting last month, 

New Zealand Transport Agency 

and Canterbury District Health 

Board representatives have been 

added to the list of those who 

will attend. 

Spinal trust chief executive 

Hans Wouters said having a 

meeting confirmed and a 

date set in stone was a great 

result. 

“It means we’re going to have 

a face to face and we’re going to 

be able to share our stories with 

them and our concerns with 

them and answer questions. 

Making decisions via email is 

never as effective.’’

City’s noisiest house is in Coastal Ward 

THE CITY council is remaining 

tight-lipped about where the 

noisiest house in the city is 

located. 

The property has had 54 complaints 

over a 12-month period 

from May 2019 to May this year. 

In 2015, the city council 

revealed what street the house 

which attracted the most noise 

complaints was located. 

Said city council senior information 

adviser and privacy officer 

Sean Rainey: “However, in 2015 

the street released was particularly 

small and, the requester was able 

to ascertain which house was the 

subject of complaint. The release 

of this information caused a 

considerable amount of public 

harm in the neighbourhood and a 

potential threat to public safety.” 

The Tilford St home in 

Woolston was dubbed ‘Christchurch’s 

rowdiest house’ after news 

media revealed it had 71 complaints 

over a 12-month period. 

Following this in 2016, the city 

council declined to provide the 

identity of the noisiest house and 

the street it was located on. 

Then after a complaint to the 

Ombudsman, city council agreed 

an approach to balance the public 

interest providing information 

and transparency and the need to 

ensure privacy. 

“This meant the city council 

would only disclose locations which 

were in broader geographical areas 

(such as major/arterial roads).” 

After a request from Pegasus 

Post, city council has revealed 

the house with the most noise 

complaints in the past 12 months 

is located in east Christchurch, in 

the Coastal Ward. 

When a noise complaint is 

made, a noise control officer will 

visit and assess the noise. If the 

noise is unreasonable or excessive, 

the officer will ask for it to 

be turned down. 

The officer can also issue an 

excessive noise direction notice, 

which requires the noise to be 

reduced to a reasonable level for 

72 hours. 

If the noise is not reduced, 

or resumes within 72 hours, 

then the officer can have the 

equipment seized. They must be 

accompanied by a police officer 

to do this. 

Noise control laws are set out 

in the Resource Management 

Act and are enforced by city 

councils.

Peter Buttigieg - Shortest Way 

Home One Mayor’s Challenge and a Model 

for America’s Future. By Peter Buttigieg 

Once described by The Washington Post as “the most interesting 

mayor you’ve never heard of”, Pete Buttigieg, the thirty-six-year-old 

Democratic mayor of South Bend, Indiana, has improbably emerged 

as one of the US’s most visionary politicians. First elected in 2011, 

Buttigieg left a successful business career to move back to his 

hometown, previously tagged by Newsweek as a “dying city”, because 

the industrial Midwest beckoned as a challenge to the McKinseytrained 

Harvard graduate. Whether meeting with city residents on 

middle-school basketball courts, reclaiming abandoned houses, 

confronting gun violence, or attracting high-tech industry, Buttigieg has 

transformed South Bend into a shining model of urban reinvention. 

Shortest Way Home interweaves two once-unthinkable success 

stories: that of an Afghanistan veteran who came out and found love 

and acceptance, all while in office, and that of a Rust Belt city so 

thoroughly transformed that it shatters the way we view America’s 

so-called flyover country. 

Queens of the Kingdom 

The Women of Saudi Arabia Speak. 

By Nicola Sutcliff 

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is one of the most mysterious and secretive 

societies in modern times and the lives of the women living there is 

perhaps the most intriguing aspect of all. What do the women of Saudi 

Arabia really think about their lives? What are their hopes and dreams? 

To separate fact from fiction, Nicola Sutcliff spent four years living in the 

Kingdom, meeting and interviewing women of all ages and from all walks 

of life. Their stories are presented here and paint a portrait of a country that 

appears to be on the cusp of change. 

In this collection of essays, the women talk candidly about their lives 

and their hopes for the future. Meet Hafsa, a Bedouin who gave birth to 

eleven children in the open desert; Jamila, the first wife in a polygamous 

household; Jamila, a medical student who married a stranger in order to 

pursue her education. Meet these and many other women and learn what 

they think about subjects as diverse as education, driving, the religious 

police, male guardianship, social media, women’s rights, love and 

marriage, underground parties, under-the-abaya fashion and sexuality. 

Authentic, eye-opening, inspiring and courageous, they capture the 

essence of what it is like to be a woman living in Saudi Arabia today. 

Dame Vera Lynn – Some Sunny Day 

The remarkable autobiography of the last 

great wartime icon. By Vera Lynn 

Born Vera Welch on 20 March, 1917 in the East End of London, 

Dame Vera Lynn’s career was set from an early age - along with her 

father, who also did a ‘turn’, she sang in Working Men’s Clubs from 

just seven years old. She had a successful radio career with Joe Loss 

and Charlie Kunz in the 1920s and ‘30s, but it was with World War II 

that she became the iconic figure that captured the imagination of the 

national public. Her spirit and verve, along with her ability to connect 

with the men fighting for their country and those left behind praying for 

their loved ones, made her the ‘Forces’ sweetheart’. Her career after 

the war flourished, with hits in the US and the UK, but Vera was never 

able to leave behind her wartime role and was deeply affected by what 

she had seen. Still heavily involved with veteran and other charities, 

this is Dame Vera’s vivid story of her life and her war - from bombs 

and rations to dance halls and the searing heat of her appearances 

abroad. Epitomising British fortitude and hope, Dame Vera gives a vivid 

portrait of Britain at war, and a unique story of one woman who came to 

symbolize a nation. 

Chanel’s Riviera 

Life, Love and the Struggle for Survival on the 

Cote d’Azur, 1930-1944. By Anne de Courcy 

Far from worrying about the onset of war, in the spring of 1938 the 

burning question on the French Riviera was whether one should curtsey 

to the Duchess of Windsor. Few of those who had settled there thought 

much about what was going on in the rest of Europe. It was a golden, 

glamorous life, far removed from politics or conflict. 

Featuring a sparkling cast of artists, writers and historical figures 

including Winston Churchill, Daisy Fellowes, Salvador Dali, the Duke 

and Duchess of Windsor, Eileen Gray and Edith Wharton, with the 

enigmatic Coco Chanel at its heart. A captivating account of a period that 

saw some of the deepest extremes of luxury and terror in the whole of 

the twentieth century. 

From Chanel’s first summer at her Roquebrune villa La Pausa (in the 

later years with her German lover) amid the glamour of the pre-war 

parties and casinos in Antibes, Nice and Cannes to the horrors of 

evacuation and the displacement of thousands of families during the 

Second World War, it explores the fascinating world of the Cote d’Azur 

elite in the 1930s and 1940s.

War of words over shingle pile 

•From page 1 

Coastal-Burwood Community 

Board chairwoman Kim Money 

said if Mr Mauger does not clear 

the remaining piles, the job will 

still be done by city council staff 

this month. 

Meanwhile, a war of words 

has erupted between Mr Mauger 

and Cr Livingstone over the 

shingle piles 

and where Mr 

Mauger lives. 

Mr Mauger 

lives in 

Avonhead, but 

grew up in the 

eastern suburbs. 

Glenn 

Livingstone 

The Maugers 

Contracting 

boss posted 

a photo of a 

digger cleaning up some of the 

shingle on his election Facebook 

page, which Cr Livingstone 

called “electioneering.” When 

interviewed later by Pegasus 

Post, Mr Mauger said it was not. 

Pegasus Post then learned 

the day after it was cleaned up, 

a Maugers Contracting truck 

appeared at the site with a 

sign saying “Vote Mauger For 

Burwood.” 

Mr Mauger said a staff 

member made the decision to 

take the truck to the location. 

“I just said to my guy on the 

truck, ‘you drive where ever you 

like’,” he said. 

When asked what Cr 

Livingstone would think of this 

and some of the shingle piles not 

being cleared yet, Mr Mauger 

told Pegasus Post he was sick of 

criticism (from Cr Livingstone) 

about the way he was running 

his election campaign and 

the fact he lived outside the 

Burwood Ward. 

Cr Livingstone previously 

questioned the impact Mr 

Mauger could have on the ward 

if he was elected while living 

outside of Burwood. Mr Mauger 

said this would not affect the job 

he would do. 

“Glenn’s about to get a rocket 

right up his a*** very soon in 

the next couple of days, because 

I am sick and tired of hearing 

about the fact that I don’t live in 

the ward,” said Mr Mauger. 

Rather than criticising him, 

UNFINISHED: 

Phil Mauger 

says he will 

clean up the 

rest of the 

shingle piles 

in a car park 

beside the 

Avon River 

this week. 

Cr Livingstone should “do 

door-knocking and just do 

commonsense electioneering,” 

he said. 

Cr Livingstone responded 

to the comments, saying doorknocking 

had played a much 

bigger role in his campaign than 

criticising Mr Mauger had. 

“Maybe he’s just been caught 

up in a moment of passion, 

which is quite understandable 

because campaigns can 

be stressful at times,” Cr 

Livingstone said of Mr Mauger’s 

comments. 

“It’s not the approach I’d 

take myself. I think there is 

a propensity in campaigns 

for candidates to try different 

things to attract votes and I 

really have to leave this one up 

to the community to judge for 

themselves.” 

•From page 1 

Quintin’s dream is to be like 

his radio heroes Simon Barnett 

and Gary McCormick. 

The radio skills he has learnt 

have also improved his academic 

performance. 

“In core subject areas, it kind 

of covers social sciences and 

English and languages and 

the arts for me. And in a way, 

doing radio has kind of helped 

overcome more of the literacy 

areas as well. I used to mumble 

quite a lot and I don’t do that 

anymore.” 

Year 13 student Troy 

Richardson said he has learned 

a lot being involved with the 

station. 

“It’s a great hobby to do, I love 

being able to be myself on air 

. . . one thing I know I can do is 

be myself on radio.” 

Year 8 student Rangi 

Campbell said his confidence 

has been boosted during his time 

presenting. 

“What I’ve enjoyed about 

Dawn FM is being confident 

about talking actually, because at 

the start of Dawn FM, I actually 

didn’t want to talk at all and, yes, 

I’ve actually got really confident 

at talking and I’m good at it.”

said music plays an important

“Other than how to actually

'AS IS' 

GETTING THE MOST 

FROM YOUR 'AS IS, 

WHERE IS' ASSET 

With over 600 ‘as is, uninsured’ sales to our name, 

Harcourts gold leads the way across Canterbury in volume 

and experience when it comes to marketing earthquake 

damaged homes. If you are considering selling an ‘as is’ 

property, and would like to be empowered with the right 

knowledge to allow you to make an educated and informed 

decision, contact one of our coastal offices at Parklands or 

New Brighton today. 

Nikila Creagh 

HARCOURTS GOLD OFFICE MANAGER PARKLANDS AND NEW BRIGHTON 

Selling these properties requires specialist skills and expertise. 

Unique to the post-earthquake Christchurch real estate market, 

these transactions involve the selling of properties where the 

owner has cash settled EQC and private insurance claims, and 

is retaining these funds rather than carrying out earthquake 

repairs. Owners may choose to take this option for a variety 

of reasons, and it can present purchasers with an opportunity 

to secure property below current market value. Over the past 

few years, the sale and purchase of ‘as is, uninsured’ homes has 

become more commonplace, with a broad cross-section of 

purchasers now active in this market. 

When it comes to selling these homes, it is important to follow 

correct procedures to ensure that you, as an owner, are not left 

legally or financially exposed. A huge volume of experience in 

the ‘as is, uninsured’ market enables Harcourts gold to provide 

specialised training to all of our agents and a network of expert 

support and advice for owners. 

Our team has a proven track record in handling this type of 

property and our clients have truly benefited from the results. 

Be wary of private profiteers. The only way to genuinely 

determine the true market value of a property is to place all 

interested parties in a competitive environment, using our wellhoned 

marketing template and extensive database of buyers.

Established just over three years ago, 

Mike Pero Real Estate New Brighton 

has become the ‘go-to’ agency for 

people buying and selling homes across 

the east side of town and neighbouring 

areas. 

Franchise owner Dean Cations 

describes himself as a “Brighton boy”, 

having grown up in the beachside 

suburb, and his team members are all 

local residents as well and all have real 

estate experience, totalling 17 years 

combined. The sales team consists of 

three agents, Dean, Nick McIsaac-Luke, 

who helped establish the office when it 

opened, and Tina Lawson who moved 

from another office within the group at 

the start of the year. 

Dean says the focus for Mike Pero 

New Brighton is helping people on the 

east side of the city work through the 

process, whether they are buying or 

selling a property. 

“For first-home buyers, there can be 

a lot of unfamiliar issues to deal with, 

especially in quake-damaged areas, and 

we help them sort through those.” 

But there’s a lot more involved with 

real estate for the Mike Pero New 

Brighton team than just selling houses, 

Dean says. 

“Our clients can be in a range of 

different situations when they are selling 

a home, and we sometimes need to be 

not just a salesperson, as people are all 

going through something different. 

“So, getting to know the vendors and 

their individual needs is one of the 

reasons this team is so successful. The 

team is proudly ranked as the current 

number-one office in New Zealand.” 

Providing support for the sales team is 

personal assistant Chantelle McCrostie, 

while mortgage broker Nicola Lock is 

on hand to help buyers with finance. 

“We are a full service business, and 

proud to be part of an organisation 

born and bred in Christchurch,” Dean 

says. 

“We also support the local community 

in any way we can. We are the major 

sponsors of the New Brighton Juniors, 

and we are always looking for more 

things to be involved in within the 

community. We love New Brighton and 

the east side of town and are proud to 

call it home – we love the community 

and the people.”

New Electorate Office for 

Christchurch East 

It’s finally official. After months of 

planning and logistics, you will now find 

my Christchurch East Electorate Office in 

The Loft above Eastgate Mall. 

My main reasons for moving were to help 

me be a more effective and representative 

Member of Parliament for everyone in 

Christchurch East. Eastgate Mall is a 

major bus hub and has plenty of parking, 

making it easier for people across the whole 

electorate to reach me. 

Christchurch East is a large, vibrant 

electorate, and I love representing the 

diverse communities who call this place 

home. From Marshland and Brooklands 

in the North, Richmond and Shirley to 

the West, New Brighton to the East, plus 

Bromley and Southshore to the South. 

Eastgate Mall is a more central, wheelchair 

friendly and accessible location for 

everyone in my electorate to reach me. 

Within The Loft, my new Electorate 

Office is surrounded by agencies and 

organisations already working hard for 

you. It’s now much easier for us to help you 

access the support you’re entitled to. Instead 

of giving you directions to a different office 

Where 

dreams 

come 

alive 

across town, we can walk with you across 

the room and introduce you to the people 

and agencies here to help you. 

Community Law Canterbury, Workwise, 

Pathways, Family Help Trust, Plunket, 

Citizens Advice Bureau, Aviva, Linkpeople 

and Mapu Maia are just a few of the 

community and social organisations we 

now share a workspace with. 

As your local MP, it’s my job to represent 

you and advocate on your behalf. People 

come to us for help on a wide variety of 

topics, from immigration issues, workplace 

problems, mental health and wellbeing. By 

huge selection 

of second hand 

holding our offices in The Loft, we are 

better placed to advocate for you and 

work more closely with the community 

organisations active in these areas. 

I know this move is upsetting for 

some, and I can understand why. 

I’ve held my Electorate Office in New 

Brighton since becoming your MP in 2013, 

and Mayor Lianne Dalziel represented 

Christchurch East from New Brighton for 

many years before me. I love New Brighton, 

and it breaks my heart when I think of how 

long it’s taken for homes to be repaired and 

for rebuild projects to get underway. 

This isn’t goodbye. New Brighton is 

my home. It’s where I live, and you’ll still 

find me jogging along the beach most 

mornings. I know that being in The Loft 

means better access, better services, and 

better representation for everyone in 

Christchurch East.

New Brighton Blanket Bank 

Winter is here and the New Brighton Blanket bank is 

a flurry of activity. 

If you haven’t come across the Blanket Bank, it is an 

initiative run by New Brighton Project. They collect 

public donations of warm bedding and distribute them 

back out to those who need support. 

Based in New Brighton they work with over 30 

social agencies from across Canterbury who access the 

service as well as referrals and first contact clients. 

The Blanket Bank was created in 2012. Each year 

since then has seen an increase in clients and agencies 

accessing the service. 

“This Winter we are busier than ever” says New 

Brighton Project Coordinator Emily Adcock. “Many 

Christchurch homes are still really cold, and the cost of 

heating is not coming down”. 

They also support those who are living in cars or 

sleeping on the streets. Families who have relocated or 

separated and many other situations where people find 

themselves needing assistance. In 2018 they gave out 

2,951 items to support keeping our city warm. 

“We see the blanket bank as a heart project”. Says 

Martha Baxendell NBP Coordinator, “It’s all about 

giving and receiving free from judgement”. 

Donation bins are outside 105 Brighton Mall, at 

the Bridge Street Challenge Service Station. Or come 

in to 105 Brighton Mall between 10am and 2pm 

weekdays. You can find them on Facebook “New 

Brighton Blanket Bank” or text or call 0221563683. 

They want people to feel warm and valued, so only 

items in clean, excellent pre-loved or new condition 

please.

Driving success at Avondale 

Golf club 

manager 

recognised 

• By Gordon Findlater 

THE AVONDALE Golf Club’s 

ability to rebound after the 

February 22, 2011, earthquake 

has seen general manager 

Richard Sinclair named 

administrator of the year at the 

Canterbury Golf Awards. 

Mr Sinclair received the 

accolade during a ceremony at 

the Christchurch Golf Club, 

where he was recognised for his 

role over the past 12 months. On 

the back of Avondale’s clubhouse 

rebuild, membership numbers, 

casual player patronage and 

clubhouse revenue has increased. 

As of May, membership at 

Avondale had grown 26 per 

cent in 12 months, while rounds 

played increased by 36 per cent. 

“It’s taken a long time, but now 

we’re finally done, we’ve got a top 

notch product,” said Mr Sinclair. 

Following the quakes, 

membership at Avondale 

dropped to about 290. The club 

now has about 450 members. 

This increase and the rising 

number of casual players is 

even more impressive given the 

current landscape nationally and 

in Canterbury, which has seen 

player numbers decline in recent 

times. 

The club has also invested 

in two state of the art golf 

simulators, which appeal to a 

younger demographic. 

Avondale has relaxed its dress 

code for casual play and in the 

clubhouse, which makes it easier 

for members and golfers to enjoy 

a game or a drink after work. 

The requirement to remove hats 

in the clubhouse has also been 

relaxed. The club is now building 

towards its centenary, which 

will be celebrated in August and 

October. 

In other awards, Rangiora 

teenager Kazuma Kobori

months was highlighted with 

his victory at the NZ PGA 

Championship at Pegasus in 

March. 

Meanwhile, 17-year-old

MESSAGE FROM THE BOARD 

Thank you to everyone who contributed ideas and feedback as part of our first phase 

of consultation as we plan for our new school. 

As well as the online survey, feedback was gathered from Post-It Stations at various 

school events and from student House Groups and workshops. 

A Community Consultation Report is now with the design team to assist in developing 

the preliminary concept design for the new school. 

The key findings in the report shows our community would like a new school which: 

► Reflects Marian’s Roman Catholic Special Character, values, story and history 

► Is inclusive and supportive. For example, reflects and celebrates Māori, Asian and 

Pasifika cultures 

► Fosters Marian’s family environment and supports small class sizes 

► Has designated and comfortable spaces to pray, eat, prepare, teach, learn and be 

together 

► Is eco-friendly and sustainable 

► Has full-sized, modern facilities designed to be functional and welcoming 

► Has plenty of green, leafy space. 

The full report is available on the Marian College website. 

SERVICE IN THE COMMUNITY 

This term, Marian students have filled paper bags with more than 200 

non-perishable food items for Christchurch families in need. 

During the July school holidays, Marian students will be working in the 

Stanmore Road St Vincent de Paul shop. Please call in with your preloved 

gently used clothing and household items and say hi. 

Marian College has a long tradition of service. Both students and staff 

members are actively involved and contribute positively to the wider 

community. All students complete at least six hours of meaningful 

service within the school and community, every year.

The tree of LIFE 

New research on Gingko 

Biloba excites researchers! 

For decades scientists believed brain 

damage with age, after a stroke or injury 

was irreversible and brain neurons could 

not be repaired. In more recent times, 

new research has shown that neurons 

can grow back with the right conditions 

and that a special extract of Gingko 

Biloba (EGb-761 or TEBONIN) has 

been clinically found to assist in this. 

The implications for stroke recovery are 

obvious, but researchers also know many 

of us suffer from undetected “microstrokes” 

that over a period of time slowly 

reduce our cognitive function. TEBONIN 

is prescribed worldwide as a natural 

supportive agent for a healthy brain and 

cognitive function. It supports healthy 

mental performance, concentration, focus, 

alertness, motor function and to help 

with many conditions including tinnitus 

(ringing and noise in the ears), vertigo 

and normal balance. TEBONIN improves 

micro-circulation and helps the blood 

flow reach those critical places it needs to 

get. It is a potent anti-oxidant and makes 

the red blood cells more pliable and 

capillary walls more flexible. 

TEBONIN is one of the most widely 

studied and researched herbal products in 

the world and is the only Ginkgo biloba 

extract manufactured via a patented 

multi-step extraction process. Each small 

tablet contains a highly concentrated 

50:1 extract to give you a therapeutic 

clinical dose without having to take a large 

amount of the herb. Of 25 Gingko biloba 

products on the market, and tested by a 

major medical journal, only TEBONIN 

passed all five of the test requirements. 

Ten brands didn’t meet any requirements 

and the rest didn’t pass more than three 

out of five requirements. TEBONIN is 

the only Gingko biloba extract shown 

to activated all areas of the brain and is 

considered the gold standard in Gingko. 

TEBONIN has been trusted by millions 

of consumers worldwide for over 30 

years with more than 8,000,000 tablets 

consumed each day. 

TEBONIN and further information 

is available from the Natural Health 

Advisers at Marshall’s Health & Natural 

Therapy in New Brighton. PH: 388-5757.

1 in 2 people 

deficient in B12 

Emerging research has shown as many as 50% of older adults and 

as many as 25% of younger adults are deficient in vitamin B12. 

Scientists at Rush University Medical 

Center found those most deficient 

in vitamin B12 to have the smallest 

brain mass and the lowest scores on 

tests measuring short-term memory, 

concentration and brain performance. 

Another study showed that older people 

with higher levels of B12 in their blood 

have bigger, healthier brains and score 

higher on cognitive tests than those with 

lower levels. Yet another recent landmark 

study showed that B12 supplementation 

slows the accelerated rate of brain 

shrinkage and declining cognitive function. 

B12 is essential for energy production, cell 

health, regulation of mood and sleep cycles, 

nerve health and repair, and prevention 

of homocysteine a serious cardiovascular 

risk factor that is known to cause damage 

and plaque in the blood vessels. It can also 

increase the chances of a stroke. Harvard 

researchers found 

a 34% decrease 

risk of vision 

loss in a study 

of participants 

aged 40+ who 

supplemented with 

B12. Another study 

linked a higher risk of hearing loss in 

subjects in their 60’s who were low in B12. 

The reason so many people lack B12 

appears to be our body’s ability to absorb 

it declining with age as the digestive 

system becomes less efficient. Anti-reflux 

medication and other drugs further reduce 

B12 absorption. The good news is B12 in 

the form of Methylcobalamin sublingual 

tablets that are dissolved in the mouth and 

thru bypassing the digestive tract have 

been shown to effectively raise B12 levels in 

the body.

HOME & HEATING 

Choosing the 

right heat pump 

for your home 

The facts about 

Home Ventilation 

Balanced Pressure 

vs Positive Pressure 

Are you struggling with the heat of 

Summer or wanting to get organised for 

Winter? With the ever changing weather 

patterns, heat pumps have the flexibility 

of being able to heat and cool which is an 

advantage no other appliance can offer. This 

represents great value for your investment 

as you can use it all year round. The team 

at Enviro Master Ltd can help keep you 

cool this Summer either at home or work. 

Enviro Master supplies, installs and services 

all the leading brands including Panasonic, 

Fujitsu, Mitsubishi and Daikin. This means 

our team can show you which system and 

brand will best suit your needs. 

With new regulations coming in for 

Landlords to provide heating in rentals, 

now is a great time to beat the 1st of 

July deadline. Inadequate heating and 

ventilation can lead to mould growth and 

dampness in your property, leading to 

costlier maintenance and an unhealthy 

living environment. Providing a fixed 

heater with a higher heat output and lower 

running costs, like a heat pump, will enable 

your tenants to heat the area effectively. 

It will also discourage them from using 

unflued gas heaters which can make a 

house damp and mouldy. 

It is important to remember, when 

selecting an installer, the manufacturer’s 

warranty does not cover the installation 

and consumers could be responsible for 

any repair or damage caused to the system 

due to poor installation. Enviro Master’s 

five-star installation guarantee ensures 

correct installation, and a demonstration 

so customers have an understanding on 

how it will best meet their needs. 

For a free in home consultation, call 

Enviro Master on 366 0525 or visit our 

showroom at 41A Shakespeare Rd, 

Waltham, Christchurch. 

Under the New Zealand Building Code, 

all buildings, including residential, need 

to be suitably ventilated, either with 

opening windows or forced ventilation. 

Clause G4.1 states: “The objective of this 

provision is to safeguard people from 

illness or loss of amenity due to lack of 

fresh air.” There are many benefits to forced, 

or mechanical, ventilation over opening 

windows, including warmth, security, 

reduction of outside noises and reduction 

of condensation. 

Traditional domestic ventilation systems 

are ‘positive pressure’. They bring air in 

from outside via the roof space and force 

the stale air out through gaps around 

windows and doors. The incoming air 

from these systems has to be heated or 

cooled to keep the house warm in winter or 

cool in summer. 

The Smooth-Air HEX390 is a ‘balanced 

pressure’ system. It extracts air from the 

house and at the same time brings in fresh 

air. These two streams of air pass through 

a heat exchanger, which warms incoming 

air in winter and cools in summer if air 

conditioning is being used. This means that 

up to 80% of the energy which would be 

wasted using a traditional positive pressure 

system is recovered, resulting in significant 

energy savings and therefore lower heating 

or cooling costs. 

Until recently, balanced pressure 

ventilation systems have been considerably 

more expensive than traditional 

positive pressure systems. However, 

with Smooth-Air’s unique 

manufacturing capabilities, a 

HEX390 balanced pressure system 

can be installed for a similar price as 

a traditional positive pressure system.

Slow cooked, healthy butter chicken 

Making healthy meals 

packed with flavour is 

easy in a slow cooker, 

says chef and food writer 

Ross Dobson 

In his latest recipe book, The 

Healthy Slow Cooker, Dobson 

shows it doesn’t take too much 

effort to make food in a slow 

cooker that is not only healthy 

but can also be gluten-free, 

vegan or vegetarian. He uses 

inspiration from Asia, India and 

the Middle East, with flavours, 

ingredients and spices that work 

well in a slow cooker. 

Light butter chicken 

(serves four, gluten-free) 

Prep time 20min 

Cooking time 4.5 hours 

Ingredients 

750g chicken thigh fillets 

1 brown onion, chopped 

3cm piece ginger, chopped 

2 cloves garlic, chopped 

1 large green chilli, seeded and 

chopped 

1 Tbsp olive oil 

1 Tbsp butter 

½ tsp chilli powder 

1 Tbsp ground cumin 

1 Tbsp ground coriander 

1 Tbsp garam masala 

1 Tbsp sweet paprika 

5 green cardamom pods, lightly 

crushed 

2 Tbsp tomato paste 

(concentrated pure) 

2 tsp chicken stock 

powder 

400g can crushed tomatoes 

1 Tbsp cornflour 

1 cup (260g) natural yoghurt 

To serve 

Brown basmati rice 

Handful roughly chopped 

coriander (cilantro) 

Lemon wedges 

Directions 

Heat your slow cooker to high. 

Trim the fat from the chicken 

thighs and discard. Cut each 

thigh in half, or into thirds 

if large, bearing in mind that 

they will shrink as they cook. 

Refrigerate until needed. 

Put the onion, ginger, garlic 

and chilli into a food processor 

and process until you have a 

chunky paste. 

Heat the oil in a large frying 

pan over medium heat. Add the 

paste and cook for 8-10min, 

until the liquid from the onion 

has evaporated and the paste 

looks dry. Stir through the butter 

and cook for a minute until the 

butter has melted. 

Stir in the chilli powder, 

cumin, coriander, garam masala, 

paprika and cardamom pods. 

Add two tablespoons cold water 

and stir to incorporate any stuckon 

bits. 

Stir in the tomato paste and 

stock powder, then scrape the 

contents of the frying pan into 

the bowl of the slow cooker. 

Add the crushed tomatoes, 

cornflour, yoghurt and chicken. 

Give everything a good stir, 

nudging the chicken into the 

sauce, then cover and cook for 

two hours. 

Give it a stir, then quickly 

cover again to avoid losing too 

much heat. Cook for a further 

two hours, until the chicken 

is very tender and the sauce is 

thick. Serve the butter chicken 

on brown basmati rice, garnished 

with chopped coriander and 

lemon wedges on the side.

WORKSAFE NEW Zealand 

has b en a proached in a bid to 

fina ly repair the potholes in New 

Brighton’s Hawke St car park. 

Coastal-Burw od Ward city 

counci lor David East wants 

WorkSafe to pre sure the car 

park’s private owners into 

repairing the potholes which are 

a “trip and vehicle” hazard. 

WorkSafe chief inspector 

a se sment southern Da ren 

Handforth said it may be able to 

take action under the Health and 

Safety at Work Act 2015, “as a 

person conducting a busine s or 

undertaking.” 

Mr Handforth said WorkSafe 

is aware of the concerns raised by 

Cr East abou the car park. 

“WorkSafe has completed 

an a se sment visi to the site 

and is engaging with the owner 

to advise them that it is their 

responsibility to manage their 

risks a propriately.” 

Different parts of the car park 

are owned by various people 

and the Coastal-Burw od 

Community Board recently 

wrote to them about its concerns 

around health and safety. 

Cr East said the bi gest i sue 

in the past has b en ge ting in 

touch with the landlords and 

owners and ge ting them to 

agr e to anything. “The board 

a preciates that multi-ownership 

of the parking space may present 

a difficulty in co-ordinating 

repair/resurfacing but felt obliged 

to pa s these concerns onto you,” 

said the le ter. 

One reply has b en received so 

far from an owner who is wi ling 

to discuss the i sue. However, a l 

the owners would have to agr e 

to undertake work. 

Cr East said there had b en 

a “number of incidences” in 

the car park of people injuring 

themselves which had gone 

unreported. 

“I’ve always though that it 

has b en quite amazing that we 

haven’t had any serious a cidents 

or senior citizens perhaps 

tri ping in those potholes and 

doing themselve some damage.” 

He is confiden the new 

a proach wi l bring results. 

“I think the WorkSafe 

involvement may prove to be the 

lever that we are l oking for.”

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 all about lo bying the

Cave Rock 

Apartments’ 

owners 

expect EQC 

sign-off 

this week 

• By Sarla Donovan 

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.”

and he was “rea ly proud” of 

how the team performed. 

“We produced some top quality 

products and came away 

with a g od result so we’re very 

ha py,” he said. 

The preparation for this year’s 

World Butchers’ Cha lenge was 

intense as the team members 

met in Auckland every two 

months for lengthy w ekend 

practices. 

Mr Garth, who has b en a 

butcher for 14 years, said the 

competition brought back his 

pa sion for the job. 

“Doing a l thi stuff and 

m eting new people, s eing new 

ideas, it just brings that flair 

back for you,” he said. 

Mr Garth hopes to own a 

butcher shop of his own someday 

but says for now he wi l focus 

on ge ting mor experience 

and on the 2020 cha lenge. 

“In two years’ time, we’ l be 

going back to try and win the 

title,” he said.

A CRACKDOWN on mobile 

traders acro s the districts could 

be l oming. 

However, the public has li tle 

interest in having input into the 

i sue. 

Only eight submi sions were 

received for a potential bylaw 

aimed at regulating commercial 

activities in public places. 

The district council wi l be 

holding a hearing for the Public 

Places Bylaw and Policy on Commercial 

Activities and Events in 

Public Places. 

A hearing i scheduled to be 

held on Thursday. 

The bylaw comes as an increasing 

number of mobile traders 

are s eking to operate in Selwyn, 

especia ly during the summer 

months. 

In the past year, the district 

council has received five inquiries 

about se ting up a mobile busine s 

on private or public land. 

A report said there are two 

str et operators in Darfield, a 

coff e cart is parked beside the 

railway in Ro leston, and a pi za 

cart visits Lincoln w ekly betw en 

September-May along with a Thai 

f od truck.

Pupils learn about role of war horses 

GR ENDALE SCHOOL pupils 

have taken a step back in time, 

s eing first hand what men and 

horses l oked like during war. 

The New Zealand Mounted 

Rifles Charitable Trust president 

Mark A pleton and member 

Mike Donaldson t ok their 

horses to the sch ol on Monday, 

in a bid to educate pupils on the 

sacrifice their ancestors made in 

World War 1 and World War 2. 

Mr A pleton and Mr Donaldson 

a rived a the sch ol dre sed 

in World War 1 uniforms while 

their horses Tommy and Kruze 

wore 1 0-year-old sa dles donated 

to the trust. 

The presentation is a prelude 

to the Gr endale Recreation Reserve 

Management Commi t e’s 

upcoming Anzac Day service. 

As a tribute to those who 

served, members of the trust wi l 

ride horseback to the service. 

Mr A pleton said it was 

important children were 

educated on what soldiers 

wen through during World 

War 1 and World War 2. 

But he said the presentation 

didn’t go into t o much detail 

and was more of a “show and 

te l” to make them aware of what 

the soldiers l oked like. 

Children were shown the type 

of kits horses were required to 

wear in the war.

AN U PER Ri carton butcher 

has proven himself to be a cut 

above his Au sie rivals at an 

international competition. 

Elite Meats owner Corey 

Winder was named in the a l 

star team a the World Butchers’ 

Cha lenge in Northern Ireland. 

Mr Winder and his team, the 

Pure South Sharp Blacks, which 

includes W olston butcher 

Jeremy Garth, finished second 

in the competition. 

He said the cha lenge started 

as a “transtasman test match” 

seven years ago. 

The preparation for this 

year’s World Butchers’ Challenge 

was intense as the team 

members met in Auckland 

every two months for lengthy 

w ekend practices. Mr Winder 

said coming second against 1 

other countries was a “fantastic” 

result. 

“To get second behind Ireland 

was a huge achievement and to 

be ahead of Australia is an 

even bi ger thing for us,” he 

said. 

But Mr Winder admires the 

Australian team. 

“Those guys over there 

[Australia] are on top of their 

game, they do a g od job,” he 

said. 

“And it just showcases that 

New Zealand has got some 

of the best butchers in the 

world,” he said. 

Mr Winder has b en a butcher 

since the age of 19.

THE HALSWE L-Hornby- 

Ri carton Community Board 

has b en given the gr en ligh to 

o pose the pla ned qua ry near 

Templeton. 

Mayor Lia ne Dalziel told the 

board on Thursday it had the okay 

from the city council to make a 

submi sion if Fulton Hogan a plies 

for a resource consen to create a 

qua ry. 

Board chairman Mike Mora 

told Western News the submi sion 

would likely o pose Fulton Hogan’s 

plan. 

“You can just about guarant e 

it . because we [the community 

board] don’t believe qua ries 

should be so close to residential 

areas,” he said. 

Mr Mora said he wasn’t sure if 

the city council would endorse the 

board’ submi sion. 

“I’d like to think so because the 

city council has had their eyes 

open as we l ove recent years over 

the crysta line silica risk,” he said. 

Mr Mora said the community 

board wi l be “representing and 

advocating” for the Templeton 

community.
