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 />

HAPPENING:<br />
Halswell<br />
Pharmacy<br />

have crossing<br />

Ensign St to<br />
make the road<br />

answered. A<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 />
georgia.oconnor@starmedia.<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 />

are for extra features if the<br />
existing budget allows it.<br />
The city council sent out<br />
a survey last month asking<br />
residents to choose their<br />
top additional four features<br />
• By Claire Booker<br />
THE FESTIVAL of<br />
Adult Learning will<br />
start at Phillipstown and<br />
Richmond next<br />
month.<br />
Classes will be<br />
held throughout<br />
the first week of the<br />
month at Avebury<br />
House and the<br />
Richmond Community<br />
Garden,<br />
with more classes to<br />
be held in Phillipstown.<br />
Events will include yoga<br />
and pilates demonstrations,<br />
drumming classes, cooking<br />
and art classes, gardening<br />
classes and cultural activities.<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 />
sources.”<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 />

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 />

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

WALK CHRISTCHURCH is recruiting<br />
cheerful, enthusiastic volunteer<br />

demand for our walks. We provide an<br />
induction and training programme.<br />
Our guides are expected to -<br />

in the visitor season.<br />

and committed to giving walkers a<br />
great experience<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 />
