Residents frustrated<br />
over pipeline ‘torture’<br />
• By Jess Gibson<br />
HEATHCOTE Valley residents<br />
have described a multi-million<br />
dollar wastewater project being<br />
undertaken outside their property<br />
as “torture”.<br />
THe city council is now dealing<br />
with residents at three properties<br />
who have been affected by phase<br />
four of its Lyttelton Harbour<br />
wastewater scheme.<br />
Creag Foxton-McCulloch and<br />
Victoria Foxton have endured<br />
almost two-and-a-half months<br />
of constant noise, dust, potholes,<br />
muddy roads and groundshaking,<br />
which they likened to<br />
an earthquake. The couple were<br />
never told they would have to<br />
put up with these issues outside<br />
their Scruttons Rd home while<br />
contractors Fulton Hogan work to<br />
install a pipeline at a cost of $8.3m.<br />
The job still has at least another six<br />
months to go.<br />
City council services general<br />
manager David Adamson said<br />
the project was consulted on as a<br />
whole in 2015 instead of on a stageby-stage<br />
basis. He said the public<br />
was invited to give feedback on<br />
two options to connect Lyttelton<br />
Harbour communities’ wastewater<br />
to the Lyttelton Rd tunnel in 2015.<br />

YOU HAVE to sympathise with Heathcote<br />
Valley residents currently enduring the<br />
noise, vibrations and shaking that goes<br />
with a major infrastructure project (see<br />
page 1).<br />
Creag Foxton-McCulloch and Victoria<br />
Foxton have gone public in <strong>Southern</strong> <strong>View</strong> to air their<br />
frustrations over the Heathcote Valley part of the $53 million<br />
Lyttelton pipeline.<br />
The city council consulted with the public back in 2015 over<br />
what lay ahead. But Creag and Victoria say they weren’t aware<br />
what was going to happen in their part of the valley until work<br />
started a few months ago.<br />
The couple, and others, will unfortunately have to endure it for<br />
another several months. Fulton Hogan, the company contracted<br />
to do the work, isn’t responding to our questions.<br />
No surprises there.<br />

No progress finding MDF solution at Owaka site<br />
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />
ONGOING: A resource consent has been lodged to mix the<br />
MDF at the Owaka site in with soil. Owaka Holdings director<br />
Alan Edge said mixing the MDF in with soil is a “safer” option.<br />
THE ONGOING saga to get<br />
medium density fibre removed<br />
from the contentious Owaka site<br />
is in limbo.<br />
Owaka Holdings Ltd lodged a<br />
resource consent application to<br />
combine about 6800m of MDF<br />
with a similar amount of soil<br />
to form a bund at its site on 59<br />
Owaka Rd.<br />
The bund is proposed to be<br />
covered with topsoil and planted<br />
with vegetation and grass.<br />
If approved, the MDF would<br />
no longer need to be removed<br />
from the site.<br />
The site has been a contentious<br />
issue for years and came to a<br />
head when the MDF spontaneously<br />
caught alight spreading<br />
thick smoke and taking weeks to<br />
contain.<br />
The city council issued Owaka<br />
Holdings an abatement notice in<br />
April 2015, which said all MDF<br />
had to be removed by April 2016.<br />
The city council did not reimpose<br />
it after it lapsed because it<br />
started a compliance investigation.<br />
In April last year, the city<br />
council threatened Environment<br />
Court action over Owaka Holdings<br />
Ltd failing to comply with<br />
removing the MDF.<br />
City council head of regulatory<br />
compliance Tracey Weston told<br />
<strong>Southern</strong> <strong>View</strong> this week enforcement<br />
action is on hold pending<br />
the outcome of the application.<br />
The resource consent was<br />
lodged on November 27 and city<br />
council staff is currently waiting<br />
on more information before<br />
proceeding the application.<br />
It is waiting for further information<br />
relating to stormwater,<br />
transmission lines, contamination<br />
and approval from Orion,<br />
which is adjacent to the site.<br />
Ms Weston said the last<br />
notification the city council<br />
received regarding the MDF<br />
being removed was between the<br />
period of January-May, 2017.<br />
So far, 539.49 tonnes have been<br />
removed.<br />
In April last year, a city<br />
council investigation found the<br />
stockpiles of MDF were not permitted<br />
by the District Plan and<br />
not authorised by a resource<br />
consent. MDF is an engineered<br />
wood product made by breaking<br />
down hardwood or softwood<br />
residuals.<br />
Owaka Holdings director<br />
Alan Edge said he thinks the<br />
proposal is a safer option.<br />
When asked by <strong>Southern</strong> <strong>View</strong><br />
if the proposal would save the<br />
company the expense of removing<br />
the MDF from the site, Mr<br />
Edge said “not really.”<br />
“The amount of money the<br />
consultants and scientists have<br />
done on the MDF has not been<br />
cheap,” he said.<br />
The Owaka site has been<br />
a contentious issue with the<br />
Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton<br />
Community Board for years.<br />
But city councillor Jimmy<br />
Chen, board chairman Mike<br />
Mora and deputy chairwoman<br />
Helen Broughton were unaware<br />
the resource consent had been<br />
lodged.<br />
Mrs Broughton said she only<br />
found out because she kept asking<br />
council staff for updates on<br />
the removal of the MDF.<br />
“We were promised a briefing<br />
every two months and we<br />
haven’t had any briefings . . . I<br />
got told there was no need for a<br />
briefing because it was no longer<br />
an issue of the MDF being taken<br />
away.”<br />
Mrs Broughton said she was<br />
concerned because she thought<br />
the MDF was being taken away<br />
and it is not.<br />
Cr Chen said he has not seen<br />
a copy of the resource consent<br />
but is trusting city council<br />
planners will follow the process<br />
to determine the safety of the<br />
proposal. An assessment of<br />
environmental effects found<br />
the proposal had considerable<br />
positive effects in providing an<br />
on-site solution to the MDF<br />
material.<br />
Orion, which is adjacent to<br />
the site, was consulted on the<br />
proposal. Its works delivery<br />
manager Anthony O’Donnell<br />
said Orion was concerned<br />
about stormwater run-off<br />
entering their property. Orion<br />
is in ongoing discussions about<br />
matters raised in the proposed<br />
plans.<br />

No objections to ownership<br />
change at Henry’s Hornby<br />
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />
NO OBJECTIONS have been<br />
lodged against a liquor store<br />
application which is located in<br />
the same complex as a Work and<br />
Income office in Hornby.<br />
Skudar Ltd lodged<br />
the new application for<br />
the current off-licence<br />
Henrys Hornby on 21<br />
Shands Rd. The new<br />
application is sought<br />
due to a change of<br />
ownership at the site.<br />
The store is currently<br />
operating under<br />
Imperial Discount<br />
Liquor Ltd.<br />
If approved, it would operate<br />
Monday-Sunday, 8am-10pm,<br />
under the name of Henry’s BWS<br />
Hornby.<br />
The application received<br />
mixed views at the Greater<br />
Hornby Residents’ Association<br />
meeting recently due to the store<br />
being located a few doors down<br />
from Work and Income.<br />
Chairman Marc Duff said he<br />
hadn’t heard of any problems<br />
as a result of the store’s location<br />
before, and it “doesn’t really<br />
stick out that it is there.”<br />
“I think if it was a new liquor<br />
store you would see a stronger<br />
community feeling . . . I think I<br />
Marc Duff<br />
Loss of income and damage concern to property<br />
•From page 1<br />
However, regardless of outcome,<br />
the plan to lay a pipeline through<br />
Heathcote and Woolston would<br />
have remained the same.<br />
“We’re addressing each<br />
complaint individually and<br />
working with our contractor<br />
to find a solution for residents.<br />
Complaints are followed up with<br />
emails or phone calls from the<br />
project manager and face-to-face<br />
engagement with the contractor,”<br />
Mr Adamson said.<br />
Mr Foxton-McCulloch, who is<br />
the ex-chairman of the Heathcote<br />
Valley Community Association,<br />
was not aware of the consultation<br />
or the drop-in session in 2015.<br />
would have a stronger<br />
view if it wasn’t a renewal<br />
but it is a renewal so it is a bit<br />
different.”<br />
Member Mark Peters said the<br />
close proximity of the store to<br />
the Work and Income office,<br />
operated by the Ministry<br />
of Social Development,<br />
was “unfortunate.”<br />
“It is a one-stop shop.<br />
You go in and get your<br />
benefit and then you<br />
wander into a liquor<br />
store. That is not really an<br />
ideal situation,” he said.<br />
But he said he<br />
decided not to make an<br />
objection.<br />
This is because when a new<br />
licence application is made<br />
due to a change of ownership,<br />
the suitability of the licensee<br />
is the only ground in what an<br />
objection can be made.<br />
Mr Peters said he is in two<br />
minds because Henry’s is<br />
operated by Foodstuffs South<br />
Island Ltd – and is probably one<br />
of the better liquor stores.<br />
But a location such as<br />
The Hub Hornby may have been<br />
more appropriate, he said.<br />
MSD regional commissioner<br />
Shane Carter would not<br />
comment on the application.<br />
The only mention of Scruttons<br />
Rd in the consultation document<br />
was to say that the pipeline would<br />
be installed there, as well as in<br />
Godley, Simeon, Norwich and<br />
Gladstone Quays and Port Hills,<br />
and Ferry Rds. It did not mention<br />
anything about disruption to<br />
nearby properties during the<br />
installation of the pipeline.<br />
The city council received 44<br />
submissions in response to the<br />
consultation, five opposed the<br />
project and there was no mention<br />
of Scruttons Rd.<br />
Instead, Mr Foxton-<br />
McCulloch said he found out<br />
about the work which was going<br />
to be done when he saw people<br />

wages is staggering.”<br />
Mr Foxton-McCulloch and Ms<br />
Foxton have had to temporarily<br />

ongoing disturbance, resulting in<br />
a “massive loss of income.”<br />

But because none were made,<br />
Rizak Enterprises Ltd can start<br />

included the enforcement of<br />
guidelines like labelling the store<br />

property with all of the shaking<br />
and banging.<br />
He is also concerned over the<br />
use of a temporary Bailey bridge<br />
to replace the old Scruttons Rd<br />
bridge.<br />
“To have a Bailey bridge<br />
brought up from Timaru to<br />
be thrown over the old bridge<br />
just until the job is finished<br />
seems a huge waste of time<br />
and ratepayer money when<br />
the bridge is supposedly due to be<br />
upgraded next year.”<br />

Eyesore could soon be demolished<br />
Fire rages, homes at risk<br />
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />
A LONG-TERM eyesore<br />
in Sockburn could soon be<br />
demolished.<br />
The city council is undertaking<br />
asbestos surveys at the old<br />
Sockburn Service Centre to determine<br />
the extent of the asbestos<br />
removal required to allow for the<br />
demolition to go ahead.<br />
City council’s<br />
head of facilities, property and<br />
planning Bruce Rendall said a<br />
final date for the service centre<br />
will not be known until the<br />
extent of the asbestos removal is<br />
known.<br />
The former service centre,<br />
on Main South Rd, has been a<br />
source of tension for years with<br />
residents unhappy with the state<br />
of the site.<br />
It was closed in 2012 due to<br />
earthquake damage and has been<br />
vacant ever since.<br />
Greater Hornby Residents’<br />
Association chairman Marc<br />
Duff said it is encouraging<br />
to hear the city council is making<br />
progress by looking at the<br />
asbestos.<br />
He said it is understandable<br />
the city council wants to undertake<br />
asbestos testing to make<br />
sure the building has a safe<br />
demolition.<br />
It comes as the city council<br />
demolished the old Sockburn<br />
VTNZ building and storage shed<br />
last month.<br />
Mr Duff said it was really<br />
positive the city council had<br />
made progress in bringing the<br />
old Sockburn VTNZ building<br />
down.<br />
Currently, the service centre is<br />
covered in graffiti, the windows<br />
are smashed and others are<br />
boarded up.<br />
Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton<br />
Community Board chairman<br />
Mike Mora said he is hoping the<br />
building can come down as soon<br />
as possible.<br />
A year ago, a report went to the<br />
board recommending the city<br />
council retain the land, but not<br />
the building.<br />
Mr Rendall said there have<br />
been no changes since then and<br />
the land will be used for water<br />
supply and recreation.<br />

UN youth trip for Villa Maria head girl<br />
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />
ONE OF the biggest messages<br />
Villa Maria College’s head girl<br />
Eadaoin Roughan tries to pass<br />
onto her fellow students is to<br />
“give everything a try”.<br />
“Giving it a go won’t hurt<br />
anyone, you can only grow and<br />
learn from it,” she said.<br />
So while Eadaoin, 17, didn’t<br />
know a lot about the United<br />
Nations Youth New Zealand’s<br />
Global Development Tour 2020,<br />
she decided to take her own<br />
advice by applying for the trip.<br />
She is now one of 22 students<br />
from across the country selected<br />
for a month-long tour of Europe<br />
and New York to learn about the<br />
UN’s Sustainable Development<br />
Goals in action.<br />
Eadaoin has been chosen<br />
alongside Lincoln High School’s<br />
Maria Mendoza Nieto and<br />
Sujean In of St Margaret’s<br />
College.<br />
The tour, which begins in<br />
January, will see the delegation<br />
travel to London, Rome, Vienna,<br />
Berlin and Paris.<br />
The Sustainable Development<br />
Goals are the UN’s blueprint<br />
addressing global challenges<br />
including poverty, inequality,<br />
climate, environmental<br />
degradation and justice.<br />
On the tour, the delegation<br />
will meet with policy-makers,<br />
non-profit organisations and<br />
other institutions critical in<br />
the formation of achieving the<br />
goals.<br />
Eadaoin said she was happy,<br />
excited and overwhelmed when<br />
she found out she was chosen.<br />
“Just the thought of being<br />
able to go across the world to see<br />
how countries work with<br />
the Sustainable Development<br />
Goals was mind-blowing,” she<br />

Eadaoin said she is most<br />
looking forward to attending<br />
the Columbia Model United<br />
Nations Conference and<br />
Exposition in New York – one of<br />
the leading UN conferences in<br />
the high school circuit.<br />
Eadaoin said she decided to<br />
apply after a friend of hers asked<br />
her to go to a talk on the tour.<br />
“Although there were<br />
only seven days left be the<br />
registration closed, I thought<br />
why not try, I’m not going to<br />
lose anything major if I try, I<br />
could gain so much,” she said.<br />
Having a passion for serving<br />
her community, Eadaoin helps<br />
feed the homeless on a Sunday<br />
at the Oxford Terrace Baptist<br />
Church.<br />
She said the thing she loves<br />
most about being head girl<br />
is listening to other student’s<br />
stories or concerns to see how<br />
she can help them.<br />
“Even if it is small, I love how<br />
they can approach me and tell<br />
me anything”.<br />
Next year, Eadaoin plans<br />
to study at biochemistry at<br />
university, but this could change<br />
when she returns from the tour.<br />

NEW HOME: Wainoni Avonside Community Services Trust<br />
co-ordinator Betty Chapman outside the trust’s new home<br />
behind the Burwood Christian Centre.<br />
New home found for<br />
community group<br />
• By Matt Slaughter<br />
THE WAINONI Avonside<br />
Community Services Trust has<br />
found its new home.<br />
The trust will move from its<br />
old headquarters at Wainoni<br />
Methodist Church on Avonside<br />
Drive to the second floor of a<br />
newly constructed, two-storey<br />
building behind the Burwood<br />
Christian Centre at 52 Bassett St.<br />
Trust co-ordinator Betty<br />
Chapman said it hoped to move<br />
in by the end of August, but this<br />
would happen after a lift was<br />
installed to help members who<br />
struggled with stairs.<br />
Mrs Chapman said she had<br />
been searching for a new site for<br />
the trust for more than a year.<br />
Earlier this year, Land Information<br />
New Zealand decided<br />
the earthquake-damaged, leaky<br />
Wainoni Methodist Church site<br />
was unsafe to work in.<br />
It was originally thought the<br />
trust would move into All Saints<br />
Anglican Church in Burwood,<br />
but Mrs Chapman said the rent<br />
would have been too expensive.<br />
“They put the rent up to $300,<br />
plus power, plus phone. We<br />
couldn’t afford that.”<br />
The rent at its new site will cost<br />
the same as it did at Wainoni<br />
Methodist Church, $200 a week.<br />
In spite of securing a new site<br />
meaning the trust’s future was<br />
safe, Mrs Chapman said moving<br />
would be hard on the about 200<br />
people who used its services and<br />
attended its events.<br />
The trust’s new headquarters is<br />
only a short distance from its old<br />
one, but she still expected the<br />
move would result in the loss of<br />
some members.<br />
“It is hard because the elderly<br />
don’t like change . . . they don’t<br />
want to shift.<br />
“It’s hard on elderly to move.”<br />
The trust has been operating<br />
out of Wainoni Methodist<br />
Church for more than 17 years<br />
and Mrs Chapman said some<br />
were struggling with the idea of<br />
leaving.<br />
However, a visit to the new site<br />
on Wednesday had seen reluctant<br />
members change their tune.<br />
“Everyone’s finding it hard.<br />
“But, yesterday after the walk<br />
through, I got a lot of positive<br />
vibes, so I’m quite relieved.”<br />
She said, ultimately, it would<br />
be great to be in a building that<br />
didn’t leak.<br />
Wainoni Methodist Church<br />
will be demolished once the<br />
trust moves.<br />

Cycleway plan<br />
changes after<br />
consultation<br />
SIGNIFICANT CHANGES have<br />
been made to the South Express<br />
Major Cycle Route after the city<br />
council received more than 600<br />
submissions on the proposal.<br />
City council staff are recommending<br />
amendments based on<br />
public feedback, including providing<br />
more car-parking, connecting<br />
with the Selwyn District<br />
Council’s planned shared path<br />
and introducing a slow speed<br />
zone along Matipo St.<br />
City council transport planning<br />
and delivery manager<br />
Lynette Ellis said: “We received<br />
a lot of detailed feedback on the<br />
route and have made a lot of<br />
changes to address the concerns<br />
and opportunities raised by the<br />
community”.<br />
Of the 642 public submissions<br />
received, 49 per cent of submitters<br />
supported the cycleway, <strong>23</strong><br />
per cent supported it but had<br />
specific feedback which needed<br />
further consideration, and <strong>23</strong> per<br />
cent opposed the cycleway.<br />
Hearings for the cycleway were<br />
scheduled to begin yesterday.<br />
Alternative designs are<br />
proposed on Elizabeth St, Lochee<br />
Rd, Craven St, Taggart Pl and on<br />
bus stops around the intersection<br />
of Buchanans Rd and Hei Hei<br />
Rd.<br />
GROUND-BREAKING: Richmond Working Men’s Club president Chris Taylor starts the final stage of the rebuild.<br />
Workingmen’s club rebuild continues<br />
• By Claire Booker<br />
WORK ON the final stage of<br />
the $12.9 million rebuild of the<br />
earthquake-damaged Richmond<br />
Working Men’s Club has started.<br />
Club president Chris Taylor<br />
broke the ground with a ceremonial<br />
spade last week before<br />
construction workers moved in<br />
to start the project.<br />
Work will be finished in <strong>July</strong><br />
next year.<br />
The final stage of the construction<br />
will be a new function venue<br />
that will accommodate weddings,<br />
corporate dinners, show<br />
events and other functions.<br />
The completed complex<br />
will have three high-grade<br />
squash courts, a new restaurant<br />
and bistro, a TAB terminal and<br />
game room, and plenty of parking.<br />
The first part of the rebuild is<br />
finished, so the club is open for<br />
meetings and events.<br />
Mr Taylor has been the president<br />
of the club for the last three<br />
years and has been a member of<br />
the committee for 17 years.<br />
“It’s been a long road, but we’re<br />
finally under way,” he said.<br />
Cook Brothers Construction<br />
won the bid for the construction<br />
of the project after going through<br />
the robust tender process which<br />
was run by the club.<br />
The design of the new<br />
clubroom was decided by way<br />
of input and discussions which<br />
involved all club members as well<br />

The Richmond club, which has<br />
been around for more than 100<br />
years, is one of the oldest clubs<br />
in New Zealand and it is hoped<br />
that the new design will blow its<br />
members away.<br />
The plan for the club is to<br />
secure its future with strong<br />
strategies around its food and<br />
beverage offerings, with a<br />
focus on the local community<br />
and perhaps targeting a wider<br />
demographic.<br />

HEALTH & AWARENESS<br />
Joint pain: Do I have arthritis or<br />
could it be mainly my muscles?<br />
The team at Physical Sense in Sydenham sees clients with<br />
a range of symptoms but many of their middle-aged and<br />
senior clients visit complaining of pain in one of their joints.<br />
Physiotherapist Ietje van Stolk suggests<br />
that a major part of the pain could be due<br />
to muscle pain rather than simply arthritis.<br />
“Even if an x-ray shows arthritis, the reason<br />
for the pain may be the muscles around<br />
the joint,” she explains. The images show<br />
how a muscle knot (the crosses) in a back<br />
muscle can give hip pain (aches and pain<br />
are the red areas in the drawings), a knot<br />
in a muscle on the back of the shoulder<br />
blade can give a deep pain in the front of<br />
the shoulder and a muscle knot all the way<br />
near the groin can give an ache in the knee<br />
(especially at night in bed).<br />
Ietje recalls one case where an 89 year<br />
old client with severe arthritis who walked<br />
with a stick, told her, “I will end up in<br />
a wheelchair, I cannot put any weight<br />
through my right leg due to pain in my hip<br />
and buttock”. “Within 4 treatments, she<br />
was walking with her stick but without the<br />
severe pain,” says Ietje. “The arthritis was<br />
one of the factors that made her muscles<br />
spasm but the other was that older people<br />
move less and the flexed position the hip<br />
is in when we sit is particularly bad for<br />
the hip.” Ietje is happy with the fact that<br />
although the client was 89 and could have<br />
been “given up on” or told to live with the<br />
pain, she made a difference to her health<br />
and wellbeing.<br />
The same lack of movement can be the<br />
reason for your knee pain or your shoulder<br />
pain and the same few treatments could<br />
make a huge difference for you.<br />
At Physical Sense, hands-on techniques<br />
(massage and triggerpoint deactivation<br />
techniques) are used to release the muscles.<br />
The client also gets a home exercise<br />
program designed to mobilize and stretch<br />
the joint, strengthen the important core<br />
muscles and increase general strength and<br />
SHOULDER<br />
PAIN<br />
KNEE PAIN<br />
balance. They teach a movement sequence<br />
that stretches the joint in all directions<br />
whilst the client is able to lie safely on their<br />
bed, perfect for older or less mobile clients.<br />
In many cases having the muscles<br />
released and being taught how to maintain<br />
it, is enough to stay on top of the problem.<br />
HIP PAIN<br />
(the crosses are the areas of the muscle spasms, the red areas is where the pain is felt)<br />
If severe arthritis is the underlying cause,<br />
some maintenance therapy may be<br />
necessary, but that is often more affordable<br />
and, for older patients, better tolerated than<br />
surgery. In very few treatments the client<br />
will know if it is going to work for them or<br />
not, without financial commitment.<br />
Physical Sense Gym and Physio is located at 300 Colombo Street, Sydenham. The Blue Line Bus stops in front of the door and there is ample<br />
parking. To enquire about specialised exercise classes or physiotherapy treatment, phone 377-2577 or visit www.triggerpoints.co.nz<br />

Teens show circus skills<br />
Fire rages, homes at risk<br />
• By Matt Slaughter<br />
TEENAGE CIRCUS performers<br />
have wowed crowds.<br />
The Christchurch Circus Trust<br />
put on three performances of<br />
Circus Berserkus at Roy Stokes<br />
Hall in New Brighton, with 14<br />
performers showing off their<br />
skills.<br />
Producer Chris Carrow<br />
said the performers rehearsed<br />
for about four months to put<br />
the show together and were<br />
supported by two backstage<br />
crew members during the<br />
shows.<br />
He said a range of talents were<br />
showcased and enjoyed by about<br />
500 audience members over<br />
three nights.<br />
The shows included aerial<br />
acrobatics, balancing acts,<br />
contortion, juggling and<br />
clowning.<br />
Said Mr Carrow: “We had<br />
some people say, you’re better<br />
than Cirque du Soleil.”<br />
“Sometimes, you would say<br />
well, a local circus, it’s just going<br />
to be something high schoolish,<br />
but we surpass that.”<br />
Mr Carrow said those<br />
involved in Circus Berserkus<br />
had done more than just improve<br />
their skills as performers by<br />
taking part.<br />
“Because most of them have<br />
been together for a while, there’s<br />
a bit of a family sort of feel<br />
around the troop.<br />
“They’re really supportive<br />
of each other and because of<br />
that the performance comes<br />
together as this really joyful<br />
experience.”<br />
Most of the performers have<br />
been involved with the trust<br />
for three to four years and have<br />
performed in other shows.<br />
Mr Carrow said in spite of the<br />
difficult skills they demonstrated,<br />
most people could learn to do<br />
them with practice.<br />

National tournament for Cashmere students<br />
• By Jacob Page<br />
CASHMERE HIGH School<br />
hockey player, Matthew Fairhall<br />
continues to prove he is a talent<br />
for the future by being the only<br />
year 9 player named in the<br />
Canterbury under-15 team for<br />
their national tournament in<br />
September.<br />
The 14-year-old will head to<br />
Whangarei after making the<br />
team following five weeks of<br />
trials.<br />
“I really hoped I would make<br />
it, but knew I was pretty young<br />
at the same time, but when I<br />
found out I had made it, it really<br />
felt like I’d achieved something,”<br />
he said.<br />
Matthew had made the year<br />
7 and 8 Canterbury Hatch<br />
Cup team in previous years,<br />
alongside Cashmere teammate<br />
Hamish Sherratt making the<br />
Canterbury B team which will<br />
travel to Wanganui at the same<br />
time.<br />
Matthew, who plays centre<br />
half said he felt he was suited to<br />
the position.<br />
“I try be a very determined<br />
player on the turf, I’ve been told<br />
I’m a good dispatcher of the ball<br />
and that I can use my vision to<br />
free up other players around<br />
me.”<br />
Matthew said he first<br />
remembers playing the sport<br />
in a six-a-side team at the old<br />
Rangi Ruru Turf as a six-yearold.<br />
SPORT<br />
“It’s great because I still play<br />
with some of my mates from<br />
that far back in year 2,” he said.<br />
He said his aim at the<br />
tournament would be to do his<br />
main role well while limiting<br />
mistakes.<br />
“Overall, I want to enjoy the<br />
experience and improve my<br />
game as much as I can.”<br />
Cashmere coach Chez Parore<br />
said both players deserved the<br />
recognition.<br />
Matthew is a very dedicated<br />
player and Hamish has<br />
persevered and shown what he<br />
is capable of,” he said.<br />
TALENT: Cashmere High<br />
School hockey players<br />
Hamish Sherratt and<br />
Matthew Fairhall will<br />
represent Canterbury at<br />
age-group level at national<br />
tournaments in September.<br />
Technical<br />
girls team<br />
beaten in<br />
penalty<br />
shootout<br />
THE CASHMERE Technical<br />
Blue 12 grade girls team<br />
finished second at the Alan<br />
Fraser Memorial tournament<br />
at Kaiapoi’s Kendall Park.<br />
The two-day tournament<br />
hosted by the Waimakiriri<br />
Football Club is an annual<br />
fixture and draws teams from<br />
as far north as Nelson and as<br />
far south as Dunedin.<br />
The team were runners-up<br />
to Dunedin’s Green Island.<br />
The team cruised through<br />
pool play with a 7-0 win over<br />
Waimakiriri United, a 6-0 win<br />
over Parklands and a 6-0 win<br />
over Waitaki.<br />
They were able to overcome<br />
FC Nelson in their semi-final<br />
however, the final with Green<br />
Island, went to a penalty shoot<br />
out.<br />
After an entertaining<br />
and even final, Cashmere<br />
Technical’s Savannah Olsen<br />
was named the golden boot<br />
winner for the tournament<br />
while Caitlin Oregan was<br />
named the team’s most<br />
valuable player.<br />
Many services provided for families<br />
through Plunket<br />
Garden maintenance is carried out<br />
by volunteers at Plunket clinics, but<br />
more are needed.<br />
For families with young children, getting help and support from people<br />
with knowledge and expertise can be a hugely beneficial, for both<br />
parents and children.<br />
The Royal New Zealand Plunket Trust offers a variety of services for children<br />
under five and their whanau, from Well Child appointments with one of their<br />
highly qualified and friendly Plunket Nurses through to Playgroups and<br />
Parenting Education classes.<br />
What most people don’t realise is that Plunket, a non-for-profit<br />
organisation, is only partially funded through a contract with the Ministry<br />
of Health. Other financial support comes from the generosity of grants<br />
and donations from the community and fund-raising activities.<br />
Plunket provides a number of Community Services, which rely on money<br />
from fundraising, grants and donations, with a dedicated team of staff and<br />
volunteers. While administered and led at a Canterbury Area level, these<br />
Community Services are run for and by the communities where they are<br />
based, responding directly to community need.<br />
Through Community Services, services for families are provided for free<br />
or at a minimal cost. They include:<br />
Helping out at a working bee at the<br />
Papanui Merivale Plunket grounds.<br />
• Parenting Education (PEPE)<br />
• Toddler groups such<br />
as ‘Toes and Giggles’<br />
• Coffee/Support/Parent Groups<br />
• Playgroups<br />
• Toy Libraries<br />
Can you help?<br />
Plunket is currently looking for volunteers to help support with some<br />
maintenance of their properties, such as mowing lawns, maintaining a<br />
garden, painting a fence or the odd handy-man job like fixing something<br />
to the wall.<br />
For example, there are two retired ladies that enjoy a catch-up while<br />
doing a bit of gardening at a local Plunket clinic, where staff say it is a<br />
‘win-win’ for both them and Plunket.<br />
If you know of anyone, from an able and willing retiree to a local Service<br />
Group that could help out, Plunket would be grateful if you would<br />
pass this on to them. For anyone who is interested or would like more<br />
information please phone or text Rebecca on 021 713 692.<br />
Like them on Facebook and keep up to date with what’s happening in<br />

bathroom, while a basement carpark<br />
and storage locker ensure the utmost<br />
practicality. Lift access and shared use of<br />
a beautifully landscaped garden elevate<br />
this property to an exceptional standard.<br />
