TRANSFORMATION: Dredging work (inset) has now finished at Woolston Cut on the Heathcote River. Landscaping will start<br />

next month.<br />

• By Claire Booker<br />

HEATHCOTE River<br />

landscaping is set to begin next<br />

month after completion of<br />

dredging along Opawa Rd and<br />

Radley St.<br />

Sediment removal along this<br />

section of the river is about<br />

half-way complete, and work<br />

will continue for the next two<br />

months.<br />

The work on this section of<br />

the river will be done four days<br />

a week and sediment curtains<br />

and other in-river controls will<br />

not be used.<br />

This is to reduce the duration<br />

of work and overall impacts on<br />

migrating fish.<br />

Linwood Ward city councillor<br />

Yani Johanson said he is<br />

pleased to see this work taking<br />

place.<br />

“It has been neglected<br />

for a long time and current<br />

maintenance has left a lot to<br />

be desired. Coupled with the<br />

dredging to alleviate some<br />

of the flooding risks, putting<br />

in some decent landscaping<br />

that can be better maintained<br />

is great improvement for the<br />

better which I welcome,” Cr<br />

Johanson said.<br />

KEY FEATURES to be included<br />

in the design of the new $37.5<br />

million Hornby mega-facility will<br />

be prioritised today.<br />

The Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton<br />

Community Board will make<br />

a recommendation to the city<br />

council on what it wishes to see in<br />

the new Hornby Library, Service<br />

Centre and South West Pool.<br />

The board will also look to confirm<br />

the eastern end of Kyle Park<br />

as the location of the new facility<br />

and instruct city council staff to<br />

begin the design concept process.<br />

It follows final approval being<br />

granted for the reclassification<br />

and changes to be made to Kyle<br />

Park’s management plan to allow<br />

for the facility to be built on the<br />

land.<br />

A component schedule discussing<br />

priorities for the facility has<br />

been outlined in a report by city<br />

council staff and will be presented<br />

to the board for approval.<br />

City council staff have already<br />

guaranteed a multi-purpose lane<br />

pool, a learn to swim pool, a toddlers’<br />

wet play area, a customer<br />

services area and the main library<br />

space will be constructed.<br />

Reassurance for village residents<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

LONG-SUFFERING retirement<br />

village residents putting up with<br />

noisy vehicles driving past their<br />

homes have been reassured they<br />

have not been forgotten.<br />

Lady Wigram Retirement<br />

Village residents battling to have<br />

heavy vehicle restrictions placed<br />

on Lodestar<br />

Ave were left<br />

“disappointed”<br />

when the<br />

road was left<br />

out of a major<br />

speed limit<br />

review for<br />

Halswell and<br />

Anne Galloway<br />

Hornby.<br />

The<br />

Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton<br />

Community Board recently recommended<br />

a raft of changes to<br />

speed limits, which will go to the<br />

city council for final approval.<br />

However, city councillor Anne<br />

Galloway said residents should<br />

not feel forgotten as the issue of<br />

the lowering the speed limit on<br />

the road is being dealt with.<br />

Lodestar Ave will instead be<br />

included in a review of the speed<br />

limits around the Wigram Skies<br />

area.<br />

City council transport operations<br />

manager Steffan Thomas<br />

said any proposed changes to<br />

Lodestar Ave’s speed limit will<br />

COMFORT: Lodestar Ave residents have been reassured they<br />

have not been forgotten after their road was left out of a major<br />

speed limit review for Halswell and Hornby. ​<br />

be brought to the community<br />

board in the next 12 months.<br />

Said Cr Galloway: “It has not<br />

been forgotten at all, it is just not<br />

happening as quickly as I would<br />

have liked and perhaps what I<br />

have expected.”<br />

She said she has been told by<br />

city council staff the consultation<br />

is likely to happen sooner<br />

than 12 months.<br />

For the past four years, noisy<br />

trucks on Lodestar Ave has<br />

been a long-standing issue for<br />

Buy pre-loved &<br />

spread the love<br />

Clothing | furniture | household goods<br />

residents living at the retirement<br />

village.<br />

The matter came to a head<br />

in 2017 when prominent rest<br />

home owner and businessman<br />

John Tooby verbally abused his<br />

tenants when they put up a sign<br />

complaining about noisy trucks.<br />

In spite of pleas from residents,<br />

heavy vehicle restrictions<br />

have not been placed on the<br />

road.<br />

This is after city council staff<br />

discovered through an assessment<br />

a significant decrease of<br />

heavy vehicles between 2017-<br />

2018, Mr Thomas said.<br />

A Lady Wigram resident,<br />

who did not wish to be named,<br />

said while she was disappointed<br />

Lodestar Ave wasn’t included in<br />

the last review, she was pleased it<br />

was still on the table.<br />

Resident Chris Havill said it is<br />

a good thing the speed limit will<br />

be looked at but he thought it<br />

was “strange” it wasn’t included<br />

in the last review.<br />

“The only one everyone has<br />

been talking about and it is the<br />

one that was left off . . . once the<br />

hospital and the dementia unit<br />

are built you don’t want cars<br />

whizzing up and down there at a<br />

fair rate of knots,” he said.<br />

A hospital, dementia unit and<br />

rest home are planned to be<br />

built along the residential street<br />

as part of the village’s ongoing<br />

developments.<br />

Bob Rush, who lives at the<br />

village, said lowering the speed<br />

limit would help, but not solve,<br />

the issues with the road.<br />

“The original problem is<br />

basically the speed of vehicles<br />

coming down here, plus the<br />

trucks using the road as a bypass<br />

– it was never designed to have<br />

trucks down here,” he said.<br />

Busy street to get pedestrian crossing<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

A CROSSING will be installed<br />

on a busy Halswell street in a bid<br />

to improve pedestrian safety.<br />

But while city council staff have<br />

confirmed a crossing will be constructed<br />

it will not be controlled<br />

like a zebra crossing.<br />

Its transport operations<br />

manager Steffan Thomas said a<br />

controlled crossing is not suitable<br />

at this location due to the low<br />

number of pedestrians that cross.<br />

THe Halswell Pharmacy has<br />

been calling for the crossing<br />

since March last year following<br />

a boom in development in the<br />

street over the past two years.<br />

The city council is planning<br />

to install a dropped kerb 4-5m<br />

north of the car park driveway,<br />

signage and a marked crossing<br />

estimating to cost between<br />

$2000-$3000.<br />

It is planned to be installed in<br />

the next financial year.<br />

Halswell Pharmacy owner<br />

Karen Frater said while she<br />

while she would have preferred a<br />

controlled crossing, “something<br />

is better than nothing.”<br />

Pupil safety solution in progress outside school<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

FLEXIBLE BARRIERS will<br />

remain in place at a busy<br />

intersection in Halswell until a<br />

permanent solution is completed<br />

to keep children safe.<br />

The New Zealand Transport<br />

Agency has gone out for public<br />

consultation over a proposed<br />

permanent solution for the intersection<br />

of Larsens and Halswell<br />

Rd, located next to Halswell<br />

School.<br />

The solution was sought after<br />

a petition was signed by more<br />

than 600 people calling for the<br />

intersection to be made safer for<br />

school pupils.<br />

Since May, traffic separators<br />

preventing vehicles from turning<br />

right when travelling in and<br />

out of Larsens Rd onto Halswell Rd<br />

have been in place.<br />

NZTA’s proposed permanent<br />

“As long as we have got safe<br />

signage so motorists know that,<br />

is all I am worried about.”<br />

The pharmacy’s concerns stem<br />

from disabled, elderly and families<br />

having to cross the road from<br />

medical centre Halswellhealth to<br />

the pharmacy following appointments.<br />

But Mrs Frater said she wants<br />

to make Ensign St safer for the<br />

entire community.<br />

IMPROVING SAFETY: Traffic barriers preventing vehicles from<br />

turning right when travelling in and out of Larsens Rd onto<br />

Halswell Rd will remain in place until a permanent solution is<br />

finalised.<br />

PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER<br />

solution has a number of objectives<br />

including to install an electronic<br />

no-right turn sign which<br />

will only be active during school<br />

patrol times.<br />

An access ramp linking the<br />

Halswell Pharmacy with the<br />

footpath is also planned. In the<br />

past people climbing the steps<br />

into the pharmacy have occasionally<br />

tripped.<br />

“The access to the pharmacy<br />

is via steps only, which doesn’t<br />

appropriately allow for mobilityimpaired<br />

pedestrians. This forces<br />

mobility-impaired users to access<br />

the pharmacy using the<br />

A pedestrian refuge island will<br />

be installed and no-stopping<br />

lines will be extended.<br />

busy vehicular entrance,” Mr<br />

Thomas said.<br />

Mrs Frater said while she has<br />

owned the pharmacy for the past<br />

10 years, it is in the last two years<br />

the road has become busier.<br />

“I think it is a bit of a racetrack<br />

between Halswell Junction Rd<br />

and getting into town,” Mrs<br />

Frater said.<br />

Most recent traffic counts<br />

show 2688 vehicles travel on the<br />

be put in place to assist with<br />

safer pedestrian crossing and<br />

guide right-turning traffic onto<br />

Halswell Rd at off-peak times.<br />

In the meantime, the flexible<br />

barriers will remain.<br />

Halswell School principal Stuart<br />

Cameron said the solution is<br />

a good compromise between ensuring<br />

there is access for vehicles<br />

using the road and maintaining<br />

safety for children crossing<br />

Halswell Rd.<br />

Previous feedback NZTA<br />

received from the community<br />

showed the while the barriers<br />

increased safety, it also restricted<br />

access to join onto Halswell Rd,<br />

encouraged poor behaviours and<br />

increased travel times.<br />

“Obviously with the no turning<br />

in school hours, that is really<br />

important from our perspective<br />

because that is the key time for<br />

us and our children crossing the<br />

road each day.<br />

Mrs Frater said there are<br />

schools and kindergartens in the<br />

area including Oaklands School,<br />

The Lighthouse Pre-school and<br />

BestStart Nottingham Avenue<br />

adding to the busyness.<br />

The Oaks Village, which the<br />

pharmacy is part of has also<br />

been completed.<br />

The building complex holds<br />

four mixed-used commercial<br />

buildings for 10 tenancies, which<br />

includes a convenience store, Indian<br />

restaurant Roti Chai, Curves<br />

Halswell, Elite Physiotherapy<br />

Halswell and Domino’s Pizza.<br />

Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton<br />

Community Board member Ross<br />

McFarlane said while it was a<br />

good outcome the crossing may<br />

not happen as quickly as it could<br />

of if he had put in a notice of<br />

motion.<br />

It was refused due to the city<br />

council already planning to take<br />

action on the crossing.<br />

•HAVE YOUR SAY: Do you<br />

think Ensign St is dangerous<br />

to cross? Email your views to<br />

kiwi<br />

road,” Mr Cameron said.<br />

Mr Cameron agreed while<br />

the trial is working well from a<br />

safety perspective, it has created<br />

access issues for the community.<br />

Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton<br />

Community Board member Ross<br />

McFarlane said it was the best<br />

available option presently inside<br />

the budget constraints “that<br />

obviously everyone has.”<br />

But he said “ultimately” he<br />

would have liked to have seen<br />

a lighter pedestrian crossing<br />

installed.<br />

“During the rest of the time,<br />

the traffic flows unless somebody<br />

wants to cross. Thereby they<br />

push the button, they cross the<br />

road and across they go,” Mr<br />

McFarlane said.<br />

Mark Peters<br />

last<br />

The city council sent out<br />

a survey last month asking<br />

residents to choose their<br />

top additional four features<br />

THE FESTIVAL of<br />

Adult Learning will<br />

start at Phillipstown and<br />

month.<br />

Classes will be<br />

month at Avebury<br />

House and the<br />

with more classes to<br />

be held in Phillipstown.<br />

Events will include yoga<br />

There will also be<br />

feature talks, including<br />

a session on foraging for<br />

food in New Zealand with<br />

they would like to see in<br />

the design on top of the<br />

guaranteed facilities.<br />

The consultation was<br />

previously criticised by<br />

Hornby resident Mark<br />

Peters, who said there was<br />

an expectation many of the<br />

additional features listed in<br />

the survey should already<br />

be guaranteed in the facility.<br />

The city council told<br />

Western News the cost of<br />

each option varies greatly<br />

and the number that can<br />

be accommodated will depend<br />

on what is selected.<br />

But Mr Peters said: “I<br />

don’t see why they are<br />

using the budget as an<br />

excuse. They have been<br />

pressed repeatedly to use<br />

some imagination and<br />

find some other (funding)<br />

The week has been<br />

organised by Adult and<br />

Community Education<br />

Aotearoa and is a United<br />

Nations educational, scientific<br />

and cultural organisation<br />

initiative.<br />

The event was established<br />

in 1988 with the<br />

a need for a hydrotherapy<br />

pool to be included in<br />

the design to be used by<br />

elderly, disabled and sporting<br />

communities.<br />

A hydroslide,<br />

child-minding services,<br />

an outdoor space which<br />

can be lit, study/computer<br />

spaces, automatic doors to<br />

make the facility wheelchair<br />

friendly are some of<br />

the wishes the community<br />

would like to have in the<br />

facility.<br />

If the component<br />

schedule is approved by<br />

the board, city council staff<br />

will commence the concept<br />

design.<br />

The facility is expected to<br />

open 2022.<br />

Boy racer issues in Hornby<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

SPEEDING CARS are causing more<br />

headaches – this time for residents living<br />

on Neill St in Hornby.<br />

The boy racer issue has been<br />

highlighted in a letter to the Halswell-<br />

Hornby-Riccarton Community Board.<br />

Residents are concerned the street is<br />

being used as a “raceway”, with speeding<br />

vehicles at risk of not making the bend at<br />

the Main South Rd end of the street.<br />

The letter was presented by Greater<br />

Hornby Residents’ Association secretary<br />

Lyn Hucklebridge.<br />

“Residents feel that the police are not<br />

doing enough patrols around this area<br />

when reports are made,” she said.<br />

Mrs Hucklebridge said while residents<br />

do not want speed humps installed, they<br />

are “extremely concerned” about the<br />

speed of some vehicles.<br />

A police spokeswoman told <strong>Southern</strong><br />

<strong>View</strong> “officers on the ground” were not<br />

aware of the issue with boy racers.<br />

However, a resident who did not wish<br />

to be named said she has made online<br />

submissions to police and phoned them<br />

“about a dozen times.”<br />

She said she has made police aware of<br />

the issue, but appreciates they are busy.<br />

Another resident said boy racers have<br />

been an issue on Neill St for about 20<br />

years.<br />

“The wet weather is an absolute<br />

drawcard for them because they can get<br />

more of a slide on.”<br />

Said board chairman Mike Mora: “It is<br />

a pretty hard thing to control. You have<br />

The dredging has been carried out with<br />

an amphibious excavator.<br />

The landscaping that is planned for<br />

next month will start with native shrubs<br />

and trees to replace the greenery which<br />

was removed due to poor health.<br />

About one-third of the trees and<br />

shrubbery will be planted this year, and<br />

the remainder will be completed in the<br />

coming years to spread the impact on<br />

river wildlife.<br />

The next sections of work on the river<br />

(stages three and four) between Beckford<br />

and Wilsons Rds is planned for later this<br />

year, through to 2020.<br />

TROUBLE: Boy racers have been<br />

leaving skid marks on Neill St in<br />

Hornby.<br />

to be there at the time it happens.”<br />

Mrs Hucklebridge raised several other<br />

traffic-related issues in her letter.<br />

She said residents are also concerned<br />

the intersection of Neill St/Springs Rd<br />

has been narrowed by a planted plot,<br />

restricting traffic trying to get out onto<br />

Springs Rd.<br />

Mrs Hucklebridge said if a motorist<br />

is turning right onto Springs Rd no one<br />

can turn left. She also raised issues with<br />

the Halswell Junction Rd extension<br />

being delayed and says there is no sealed<br />

footpath on the west side of Main South<br />

Rd from the traffic lights to Countdown<br />

Hornby and from Chappie Pl to<br />

Ravensdown.<br />

Hoodies highlight mental health<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

HOODIES HAVE been made<br />

to help fight the stigma against<br />

discussing mental health.<br />

A “hug in a hoodie” design<br />

has been created by Villa Maria<br />

College students to encourage<br />

young people to speak out about<br />

their mental health and support<br />

others.<br />

The hoodies have been<br />

designed by year 13 students<br />

Anna Fox, Amelia Schiavuzzi,<br />

Grace Cuff, Georgia Proudfoot<br />

and Georgia Singleton as part of<br />

their business studies group.<br />

Of the hoodies sold, 70 per<br />

cent of the profits will go to<br />

the Sir John Kirwan Foundation<br />

– which aims to reduce the<br />

negative impact of unsupported<br />

mental health issues youth face.<br />

The project is part of the<br />

Young Enterprise Scheme programme.<br />

Amelia said the idea was<br />

sparked because mental health<br />

is a major issue in the country,<br />

especially with young people.<br />

“We all know someone who<br />

has been impacted by mental<br />

health and we want to make it<br />

a bigger topic of conversation<br />

as there is still a lot of stigma<br />

around the issue,” she said.<br />

Earlier this year it was reported<br />

New Zealand has the highest<br />

death rate for teenagers in the<br />

tree trouble?<br />

call us 384 9630<br />

www.fourseasonstreecare.co.nz<br />

HUGS AND HOODIES: Grace Cuff, Georgia Singleton, Anna Fox and Amelia Schiavuzzi are<br />

selling hoodies to take away the stigma behind mental health. ​<br />

developed world for people aged<br />

10-24 – around 35 deaths per<br />

100,000 people.<br />

This is driven by high youth<br />

suicide rates and youth road toll.<br />

The comparisons with 18<br />

other countries of similar economic<br />

and cultural backgrounds<br />

were made by British healthcare<br />

think tank Nuffield Trust.<br />

Amelia said it chose the foundation<br />

because it gives young<br />

people the skills to understand<br />

their mental health so they can<br />

talk about it and support others<br />

to do the same.<br />

The students are aiming to<br />

sell 200 hoodies so it can donate<br />

more than $1000 to charity.<br />

Chance for<br />

women to get<br />

$200o grants<br />

THE Christchurch Foundation<br />

is calling for applications for the<br />

Women’s Fund Awards.<br />

This year marks the first time<br />

the foundation will be issuing<br />

grants to aid the women and girls<br />

making a difference in the city.<br />

The Women’s Fund was<br />

established last year, on the 125th<br />

anniversary of women winning<br />

the right to vote.<br />

Said Christchurch Foundation<br />

chief executive Amy Carter:<br />

“Our city has a proud tradition<br />

of women facilitating groundbreaking<br />

societal change. In order<br />

to recognise this, and to ensure<br />

that this proud legacy continues,<br />

we formed a fund to support<br />

women and girls in our city who<br />

are change-makers.”<br />

Mrs Carter said women and<br />

girls in Christchurch are a powerful<br />

force. “Currently, women fill a<br />

high percentage of key leadership<br />

roles within Christchurch.”<br />

Three awards of $2000 will be<br />

granted. It is hoped as the fund<br />

grows so will the ability to issue<br />

more grants.<br />

•Information on how to<br />

apply and who is eligible can<br />

be found at the Christchurch<br />

Foundation’s website and social<br />

media platforms. Applications<br />

Cashmere underdogs for trophy final<br />

SPORT<br />

• By Jacob Page<br />

INTENSITY IS what Cashmere<br />

High School basketball coach<br />

Paul Conner wants to see in the<br />

Thomson Trophy final tonight at<br />

Cowles Stadium.<br />

Cashmere are aiming for their<br />

third straight title but standing<br />

in their way are a Middleton<br />

Grange team who are the only<br />

team to beat them in two years,<br />

and took the Dowson Cup off<br />

them a month ago.<br />

We respect that Middleton<br />

Grange are favourites for the<br />

game but we aren’t dwelling<br />

on playing the underdog card at<br />

all.”<br />

While Middleton Grange<br />

cruised into the final with a 109-<br />

66 win over Shirley Boys’ High<br />

School at Middleton Grange last<br />

Tuesday, Cashmere needed all of<br />

their home crowd to lift them to<br />

a 76-73 win over Christ’s College.<br />

Conner said it was Luca Williams<br />

who produced two big<br />

plays to lift his team.<br />

“We trailed by 14 early in that<br />

third quarter and then Luca produced<br />

a big dunk just to give us a<br />

boost when we were trying to get<br />

back into it.<br />

“Then there was the threepointer<br />

with the scores tied and<br />

DETERMINED: The Cashmere High School boy’s basketball team will have to have a form reversal to beat Middleton Grange in<br />

the Thomson Trophy final tonight at Cowles Stadium.<br />

seven seconds to go, it was a<br />

great game,” Conner said.<br />

“When we last played Middleton<br />

Grange a month or so ago,<br />

they played the style of game we<br />

wanted to play.<br />

“They played with intensity,<br />

they fought for every possession<br />

and made everything count.”<br />

Conner said if the team can<br />

play with the intensity needed,<br />

they will provide a strong match<br />

for Middleton Grange, but he<br />

admitted they are favourites for<br />

the game.<br />

Boys’ High School 109-66 in<br />

New Principal<br />

takes up post<br />

Firstly, I wish thank all those<br />

involved in the Powhiri on my<br />

first day. It was a truly humbling<br />

experience.<br />

By way of background, I<br />

attended Lindisfarne College in<br />

the beautiful Hawkes Bay and<br />

then Otago University where<br />

I completed a BA in History<br />

and Classical Studies. I took up<br />

my first teaching position at<br />

Cashmere High School in 2006.<br />

I then travelled to the UK in<br />

2008 and taught at a number<br />

of schools, before returning<br />

to Cashmere High. I departed<br />

Cashmere High School in 2016<br />

to take up the position of<br />

Assistant Principal at Christ’s<br />

College where I have had the<br />

responsibility for the academic<br />

programmes. Since arriving in<br />

Christchurch, I have always lived<br />

in the Cashmere High zone.<br />

I am absolutely committed<br />

to ensuring that Cashmere<br />

will continue to provide<br />

an outstanding learning<br />

environment for students to develop<br />

the knowledge, skills and dispositions<br />

required to make a positive<br />

contribution to our communities. I<br />

believe that by providing our students<br />

Joe Eccleton welcomed by Sir Tipene<br />

O’Regan.<br />

Students placed<br />

in international<br />

competition<br />

Cashmere is proud to announce<br />

that Billie Pine (Year 10) has placed<br />

third in Scenario Performance, and<br />

Kavya Thomas (Year 12) placed<br />

eighth in Scenario Writing at the<br />

<strong>2019</strong> Future Problem Solving World<br />

Finals in the USA.<br />

with exceptional opportunities and<br />

experiences, inside and outside the<br />

classroom, we will excite and inspire<br />

young people towards their lifelong<br />

self-development. It is critical that our<br />

students feel connected to our school<br />

and that we educate our students to<br />

see themselves as a critical part of<br />

the community in which they live.<br />

I believe personalised academic<br />

success is critical for all our students<br />

irrespective of whether they want<br />

to pursue tertiary study or enter the<br />

workforce. A strong and rigorous<br />

teaching and learning programme<br />

will provide students the opportunity<br />

to discover their interests, passions<br />

and ultimately their purpose.<br />

One of the attractions of working<br />

at Cashmere was the opportunity<br />

to serve alongside such exceptional<br />

staff. Great teachers are the most<br />

important part of the very best<br />

schools. They inspire students with<br />

their own passions and assist them<br />

in acquiring the skills and knowledge<br />

needed to become confident adults<br />

in the workplace.<br />

Penalty shootout loss fails to dampen spirits<br />

SPORT<br />

• By Jacob Page<br />

THE CASHMERE High School<br />

first XI football team believe<br />

their aim of a top-10 national<br />

finish, in Napier, next month,<br />

is more attainable than ever,<br />

according to co-coach Tom<br />

Wilkinson.<br />

The confidence came in spite<br />

of a tough 5-4 loss on penalties<br />

in the Canterbury Connetics<br />

secondary school competition<br />

last Wednesday to competition<br />

front-runners St Thomas of Canterbury<br />

College.<br />

Cashmere finished 21st at<br />

the national tournament last<br />

year.<br />

They had raced out to an early<br />

2-0 lead thanks to a penalty from<br />

Jake Grove and a slick finish<br />

from Quincy Holder, but they<br />

could not withstand a second<br />

half fightback which forced the<br />

game to penalties.<br />

“We have a goal of finishing in<br />

the top 10 at nationals and after<br />

that performance I feel very confident<br />

that we can achieve that,”<br />

Wilkinson said.<br />

“The boys gave us everything<br />

they had, they were out on their<br />

feet and you can’t ask for much<br />

more than that.<br />

“We never dreamt we would<br />

be 2-0 up against a team that has<br />

HIGH HOPES: The <strong>2019</strong> Cashmere High School first XI hope for a top 10 finish at nationals next month after the 2018 team<br />

finished 21st. ​<br />

literally smashed everyone in the<br />

season,” he said.<br />

“Did we get it right tactically?<br />

Some will question that but the<br />

boys gave it everything against a<br />

quality team.<br />

“Penalty shootouts are always<br />

a bit of a lottery and to lose one<br />

will hurt, especially when it is a<br />

final but hopefully we’ll play in<br />

more big games this year where<br />

we can make the most of that<br />

experience.<br />

“I expect to see St Thomas’ in<br />

the top four at nationals, that’s<br />

how talented that team is and for<br />

us to get as close as we did after<br />

they beat us 5-0 earlier in the<br />

season shows we are on the right<br />

track for nationals,” he said.<br />

Volunteers show visitors<br />

our city’s attractions<br />

WALKING GUIDES<br />

WANTED<br />

Showing visitors to many of Christchurch’s<br />

beauty spots, natural attractions, places<br />

of historical interest, and the changing<br />

cityscape as the city rebuilds, is the<br />

task undertaken by the team of 20<br />

knowledgeable and friendly guides at<br />

Walk Christchurch.<br />

All the volunteers thoroughly enjoy<br />

revealing our city’s unique features, many<br />

of which visitors may not discover on their<br />

own, and answering questions on the city<br />

and its people.<br />

Walk Christchurch was established in<br />

1982 as the Christchurch Personal Guiding<br />

Service, and has undergone a number of<br />

changes over the years to meet the needs<br />

of increasing numbers of visitors to the city.<br />

The primary walk is the Classic<br />

Christchurch Walk, a five-kilometre walk<br />

around the central city, which takes<br />

about two and a half to three hours. From<br />

October, a shorter Highlights Christchurch<br />

Walk is also being introduced. This will be<br />

2.5 kilometres, lasting about 90 minutes.<br />

More walks are also planned to meet<br />

different requirements.<br />

The walks are ranked in the top 10 activities<br />

for tourists in Christchurch by Trip Advisor,<br />

and positive reviews are regularly posted<br />

on the Trip Advisor website.<br />

Here is one example:<br />

“Highly recommend booking this walking<br />

tour. My guide was incredibly informed<br />

and passionate about Christchurch, and<br />

it was a pleasure to listen to him speak<br />

about the city he loves. The walk never felt<br />

tiresome, and I got to see all the sights of<br />

Christchurch. Highly recommended!”<br />

The volunteer guides themselves get many<br />

benefits from their guiding activities.<br />

For example, Josie has, over the years<br />

of guiding, developed an interest in our<br />

city – its past, present and future as well<br />

as improving her knowledge of the city<br />

architecture and landscape.<br />

Josie considers herself not just a walking<br />

guide, but an ambassador for the city. She<br />

is often one of the few people that visitors<br />

can meet and talk with over the duration<br />

of the walk.<br />

Craig appreciates being part of an<br />

active, sociable group of walking guides.<br />

He has increased his appreciation of<br />

Christchurch and the guided walks have<br />

taken him to places he had never visited<br />

or known about. Stories about those<br />

places have strengthened his connection<br />

to Christchurch and his knowledge about<br />

what is happening in Christchurch.<br />

Volunteers needed<br />

To meet the growing demand for the<br />

walks, Walk Christchurch is seeking more<br />

volunteers to join the team. Details of<br />

requirements can be seen to the right of<br />

this page.<br />

For more information visit the Walk<br />

Christchurch website below.<br />

WALK CHRISTCHURCH provides<br />

guided walks in central Christchurch.<br />

Last year we guided 1800 walkers.<br />

TripAdvisor ranks our walks in<br />

the top 10 out of more than 110<br />

activities in Christchurch<br />

WALK CHRISTCHURCH is recruiting<br />

cheerful, enthusiastic volunteer<br />

walking guides to meet the increased<br />

demand for our walks. We provide an<br />

induction and training programme.<br />

Our guides are expected to -<br />

• Lead up to four walks each month<br />

in the visitor season.<br />

• Be knowledgeable about the city<br />

and committed to giving walkers a<br />

great experience<br />

• Be fit and active<br />

from the heat and run the pot<br />

under cold water to stop the eggs<br />

from cooking.<br />

As soon as you can pick the<br />

egg up, carefully roll the egg<br />

on the bench to crack the shell<br />

which will help the egg to cool<br />

down more quickly.<br />

Set the eggs aside to cool while<br />

you prepare the chicken mixture.<br />

Place the chicken breast, apple<br />

(if you are using), ginger, garlic,<br />

fresh herbs, and a tablespoon of<br />

sticky sauce into the bowl of a<br />

blender or food processor.<br />

Season with a little salt and<br />

pepper and blend on high until<br />

very well-combined.<br />

Using a set of scales, evenly<br />

portion the chicken mince into<br />

seven piles.<br />

Very carefully continue to peel<br />

the eggs, making sure not to split<br />

the eggs as you do so. Take your<br />

time.<br />

Take a pile of the mince and<br />

flatten it as much as possible<br />

in the palm of your very clean<br />

hand. Sit the egg on top of the<br />

mince and bring the mince up<br />

to cover the egg as evenly as<br />

possible. This may take a little<br />

practice to get right, so take your<br />

time.<br />

Once all the eggs are covered,<br />

pre-heat your airfryer for two<br />

minutes on 180 deg C. Add the<br />

rest of the sticky sauce to a bowl<br />

and roll the scotch eggs in the<br />

sauce to fully cover the outside of<br />

the eggs.<br />

Place the eggs inside the air<br />

fryer basket and cook for seven<br />

to eight minutes until well<br />

covered and the mince is fully<br />

cooked. Cool the eggs before<br />

storing in the fridge.<br />

You can make these scotch<br />

eggs in advance. They will last<br />

four days in the fridge or you can<br />

vacuum seal them and increase<br />

their fridge shelf life up to two<br />

weeks.<br />

Sticky sauce<br />

Ingredients<br />

1 medium-sized green apple,<br />

peeled, cored and diced<br />

240ml low sodium tamari<br />

120ml apple cider vinegar<br />

120ml water<br />

3 slices ginger<br />

1 lime, zested and juiced<br />

Directions<br />

Place the apple in a small<br />

pot and add enough water so<br />

that it comes halfway up the<br />

apple.<br />

Bring to the boil and cook<br />

for 10min or until the apple<br />

is soft and the water has<br />

evaporated. Blend the apple in<br />

a small food processor until<br />

smooth and place in a mediumsized<br />

pot.<br />

Add the tamari, apple cider<br />

vinegar, water, ginger, lime zest<br />

and lime juice to the apple and<br />

whisk well to combine.<br />

Bring the sauce to the boil and<br />

then reduce to a rapid simmer<br />

and cook for 10-15min or until<br />

the sauce has reduced down<br />

by half and has become a little<br />

thicker and syrupy.<br />

Cool the sauce and store in a<br />

jar in the refrigerator for up to<br />

two months.<br />

REAL ESTATE<br />

Saying goodbye....<br />

6 Cracroft Terrace, Cashmere<br />

Auction: Thursday, 12 September <strong>2019</strong>, Unless Sold Prior<br />

3 bedrooms 2 bathrooms 1 living room 1 dining room 1 office/study 3 car-garage 1 off-street park | Listing Number BE193360<br />

After 42 years of happy living in this<br />

lovely home was not easy but the decision<br />

has been made, the new home purchased,<br />

and this home has to be sold!<br />

Situated on the highly desirable lower<br />

slopes of Cashmere, with views across<br />

the city to the <strong>Southern</strong> Alps this home is<br />

truly a treasure. Retaining all its character<br />

whilst being renovated for 21st Century<br />

living you will enjoy living in this gracious<br />

home.<br />

Step into the warm and welcoming<br />

entranceway and on through to a large<br />

living room, just perfect for family and<br />

friends to congregate. The bonus of a log<br />

burner with wetback will keep you warm<br />

and save on those electricity bills for hot<br />

water. A separate open plan family and<br />

dining room opens off the lounge. The<br />

modern kitchen will appeal to the cooks in<br />

the family - ample bench space and quality<br />

fixtures are a delight.<br />

Three large double bedrooms, smart<br />

family bathroom and an ensuite are<br />

provided here. There is a study too - this<br />

could be a single bedroom if needed.<br />

For the handyperson there is great<br />

basement space under the house for your<br />

workshop and storage.<br />

The addition of having 3 car garaging and<br />

a park for the caravan or boat completes<br />

this picture, with easy drive on access.<br />

A rare find indeed.<br />
