Break-in won’t bring gift shop down

MAIREHAU continues to be
hit by burglaries and break-ins
– with the Pay it Forward gift
shop targeted last week. The
shop was the second business
targeted along Nancy Ave last
week after the neighbouring
fish and chip shop had its door
smashed and till stolen.
Pay it Forward has been in the
building for six years, and coordinator
Lee Arthur said the
dairy two shops along has been
broken into multiple
times, but this was the first
time Pay it Forward had been
targeted.

• By Claire Booker
A DECISION over the
controversial Harewood, Breens
and Gardiners Rds intersection
has been fast tracked to the city
council.
The infrastructure, transport
and environment
committee met
last week to make
a recommendation
to the city council
on the proposed
traffic signals.
But rather
than make a
recommendation,
it chose to
Aaron
Keown
forward the Fendalton-Waimairi-
Harewood Community Board’s
recommendation in favour of
the lights straight to city council
meeting on September 12..
And it was all because one
councillor could not make the
meeting. Harewood Ward city
councillor Aaron Keown was
at a family reunion because the
committee meeting wasn’t held on

Northern Corridor meeting
moved to council chambers
• By Claire Booker
ST ALBANS residents will
have their chance to voice their
opinions on the effects of the
Northern Arterial Motorway
next week.
An extraordinary combined
meeting of the Papanui-Innes
and Linwood-Central-Heathcote
Community Boards has been
moved from the boardroom
in Papanui to the city council
chamber in the civic building in
Hereford St.
There were 253 submissions received
in relation to the Christchurch
Northern Corridor transport
projects, and more than 30 people
have already said they will make a
verbal submission.
But some residents are frustrated
the meeting venue wasn’t
scheduled for the council chamber
in the first place.
Ngahuia Freed has been
involved with the St Albans community
for a long time and has
seen many consultations and
submissions happen recently.
“People are burnt out, they’re
saying ‘we fought it last time,
we’re tired. We can’t do it anymore,”
she said.
Ms Freed is concerned the
change of venue might cause
confusion for some submitters,
in a Facebook comment, she
said: “Isn’t that just adding more
confusion for submitters and the
general public?”
Ms Freed said the boardroom
in Papanui was always going to
be too small.
“There is not the space for that
[verbal submissions and two community
boards] at all,” she said.
Papanui-Innes Board chairwoman
Ali Jones said the
decision to move the meeting
was made after the number of
people wanting to talk to their
submission was confirmed by
city council staff last week.
“We try to keep as many
meetings, consultations and
engagements in our community,
as possible. That makes it easier
for people who live and work in
the community to participate,”
she said.
“It had not been anticipated
that such a large number of
people would request to speak
to their submission. As soon as
CONGESTED:

area once the
Northern Arterial
Motorway opens. ​
it became clear that the board
room was not going to be big
enough, our team booked the
council chamber and contacted
all submitters,” Ms Jones said.
Both boards will also consider
the city council staff report at the
meeting and make a recommendation
to the city council on the
transport projects.
The meeting will be held on
September 9. Submitters will
each have four minutes to speak,
and the meeting will start at
9.30am.
In Brief
PIPE RENEWAL
Work will begin this month on
the wastewater pipe on Flockton
St from Thornton to Carrick
Sts. Vehicle access to some
properties may be restricted
at times, but residents will be
informed prior to this. Work is
expected to be completed by the
end of October.
PAK’NSAVE DECISION
The decision on whether to
grant resource consent for a
PAK’nSAVE supermarket and
self-service fuel station on
Main North Rd is expected
by the end of the year. Twentyone
submissions were received
from the public, with 11 in
support, seven in opposition
and three neutral. A hearing
date has not yet been set, but is
likely to happen in the coming
months.
ANOTHER SHORT MEETING
Last week’s Fendalton-Waimairi-
Harewood Community Board
meeting lasted 11 minutes. In
March, it held a nine minute
long meeting. In last week’s
meeting, the board approved
$8600 from its discretionary
response and youth development
funds, received a report on the
Bishopdale Mall revitalisation
project and the area report of the
community board.

Mairehau’s Pay it Forward
gift shop targeted by burglars
•From page 1
Luckily for the shop, nothing
was stolen, which Mrs Arthur
thinks is due to the alarm system
and the fact there was no cash on
the premises.
“They didn’t take anything, I
think they were just looking for
money,” she said.
A wheelie bin was used to
break the store window, the till
was opened and draws were
sifted through.
The shop is run by The Neighbourhood
Trust and is a social
enterprise where 60 of the city’s
creative entrepreneurs can sell
their products.
The shop also provides social
support to budding entrepreneurs
and runs craft classes for
the community at subsidised
rates so crafts can be accessed by
a wide range of people.
Entrepreneurs who sell their
products through the shop make
their own profits, and a commission
goes to The Neighbourhood
Trust, which puts the money
back into the community.
Mrs Arthur said she didn’t
know what would lead someone
to break into the shop.
“We definitely won’t be
brought down by it,” Mrs Arthur
said.
BROKEN: The Pay it Forward shop was broken into last week.
The shop has received a lot of
community feedback and online
support following the break-in.
A Facebook post from Pay it
Forward said: “Unfortunately,
the word hasn’t got out to everyone
that our profits go back into
the community. So the people
that broke into our shop this
morning didn’t realise that they
weren’t just hurting us, but they
were also hurting the local community.”
Mrs Arthur said the attempted
burglary has done the opposite
of what the offenders probably
wanted. The shop has since reopened
and the window has been
repaired. “It’s made us feel loved,
we will prevail,” she said.

Students’ high-flying business trip
• By Claire Booker
A TRIP TO Thailand next
month will set up three young
entrepreneurs for a successful
career in business.
Olivia Hubber (St Margaret’s
College), Jake Newlands (St Andrew’s
College) and Finn McCabe
(Cashmere High School) have
been selected for the BizVenture
programme in Southeast Asia.
The students are three of
10 Young Enterprise Scheme
participants selected to take part
in the business challenge programme
which introduces young
entrepreneurs to global markets
and opportunities awaiting them
out of school.
More than 4000 students
across New Zealand applied for
the opportunity. The application
process for the trip required
students to make a 2min video,
including an explanation of the
product their Young Enterprise
Scheme business provides and
why it is sustainable.
The video also needed to
contain an explanation of how
their product or service could
be successful in the Thai market
and why they should be chosen
to participate in the BizVenture
programme.
The Southeast Asia Centre of
ENTREPRENEUR: Jake Newlands is one of three Christchurch
students selected to go to Thailand as part of a Young
Enterprise Scheme business trip next month.
Asia-Pacific Excellence has partnered
with the Young Enterprise
Scheme to create the week-long
experience that encourages business
connections in Southeast
Asia.
The students will learn about
the culture and business community
in Thailand and will
visit established and emerging
companies.
They will also meet local entrepreneurs
and key players in New
Zealand trade, and engage with
Kiwi entrepreneurs operating
offshore.
During the trip, the students
will work with local students and
compete in a business challenge
where they will pitch to a panel
of local business leaders.
Jake said finding out he was
successful in his application
process was unexpected.
“The announcement was
very exciting and unexpected,
especially considering that our
application had only been due
the day before the phone call,”
he said.
Jake’s business is called In the
Mix, which provides healthy and
sustainable baking mixes, the
business has three products for
sale – a bar, cookie and a gluten
and dairy-free brownie mix.
“Our business has been
successful so far, with our environmental
and health-focused
product being a hit at markets
as well as on social media,” Jake
said.
He is looking forward to going
to Thailand where he hopes to
grow his business knowledge.
“While this is a somewhat
nerve-wracking prospect, the opportunity
to have business leaders
listen to and give feedback on
your work and presentation is
rare and unique,” he said.
Jake plans to study a double
degree in law and commerce
next year in Wellington or
Christchurch.
St Margaret’s
College
student Olivia
Hubber shares
her thoughts
on being
selected for
the Bizventure
trip
THE WHOLE trip is going to
be incredibly amazing and very
inspiring. I am most looking
forward to fully immersing
myself into the culture which
Thailand offers where I can acquire
first-hand experience and
knowledge about business and
sustainability.
Business is one of my biggest
passions. I love how you can
bring things to life and inspire
others. I am currently applying
to study at Auckland University
doing a joint degree in commerce
and art. One day I want
to get the Bold internship at
Google in Silicon Valley. A lot
of people find this goal rather
outrageous and confronting.
However, for me, I am in awe
of the forward-thinking nature
and innovative environment
Google has.
This has always been a dream
of mine and something I am
working towards. I would love
to work internationally.

‘Feeding my good wolf’ at Outward Bound
Mairehau High School
student Maddison Bouma,
17, writes about her
experience on the 21-day
Takere Outward Bound
course
OUTWARD Bound is an
experience that will be
embedded in my memory
forever.
It is truly astonishing what you
are capable of when you set your
mind to it.
During my time at Outward
Bound, a group of strangers
became a family within a matter
of days.
I kayaked raging river rapids,
captained a sailboat through a
storm and through the night,
and tramped mountains without
a marked track.
I also went to the Outward
Bound school in Anakiwa,
Marlborough, and on a beautiful
island solo-camped for three
days, and had many other
adventures.
Outward Bound allowed me to
push myself further than I ever
thought possible.
FUTURE LEADERS: Senior students from across the city were selected to go on a 21-day
Outward Bound Leadership course.
It helped me to better
understand what I am capable
of, what my limits are and
taught me skills that can help me
conquer any challenge I face.
One of the most memorable
lessons I learnt was about feeding
my ‘good wolf’. My instructors
taught my watchmates and I
a lesson about our reticular
activating system by using two
wolves. Everyone has a good
and a bad wolf. If we feed our
bad wolf, by thinking negative
and discouraging thoughts that
we can’t do something, our
reticular activating system will
start to seek and show our mind
evidence that these negative
things are true. For instance,
if you say to yourself that you
are always late, your reticular
activating system will make you
believe this is true. In turn, you
will most likely always be late.
However, if we feed our good
wolf by thinking positive and
encouraging thoughts and telling
ourselves that we can do it, you
will.
I have found this good wolf/
bad wolf model to be extremely
beneficial. It has helped me
overcome numerous challenges
that I might have struggled with
prior to Outward Bound.
I have even had the
opportunity to pass on this
knowledge to my peers and
witness the results of them
feeding their good wolf.
Outward Bound truly is a
mind-blowing experience and
has had a tremendous impact on
not just my own life but that of
so many others.
Something that has stuck with
me are the words of Outward
Bound founder Kurt Hahn, who
said: “There is more in you.”

Ms Twaddell said
her resignation from

“I have a conflict of interest

Eco-warriors
plant orchard
at Breens
• By Claire Booker
A TEAM of eco-warriors at
Breens Intermediate have been
busy planting a school orchard.
The club has been running for
four years and about 30 students
are involved.
Earlier this year, the team
started a single-use packaging
ban, and have encouraged zero
waste lunches at the school.
The students have also started
a worm-farm, composting system
and have transformed the
old sandpit into a bramble patch.
Breens pupil Sariah Orton said
she enjoys the club because it will
leave a legacy for future pupils.
“It’s not just for yourself, it’s for
future generations,” she said.
The students planned the space
for the orchard and mapped out
the placement of the trees and 14
planting beds.
Four apple, plum and pear
trees, two feijoa trees and a
grapevine were donated to the
school.
The students were taught how to
safely handle the trees, dig safely

event is about bringing people
together.
“Recognising that all our kids
come into the world with their
own traits, personalities, and
goals is great . . . sometimes
positively managing these
can often come with its own
challenges though,” she said.

Fun for mums and dads over Parenting Week
“The Neighbourhood Trust
is passionate about bringing
together a host of resources
to help parents broaden their
knowledge base, whilst gaining
the support they need on their
parenting journey.” Mrs Arthur
said.
The week will have a range
of workshops and expert
speakers, which will cover
parenting topics across all ages
of children.
More than 30 events will be
held over the 10 days of the
event, and Mrs Arthur said
the trust is hoping to reach
more parents this year. Many of
the events are free or require a
gold coin donation.
Some events have a small
cost for tickets, but parents are
encouraged to register to secure
their seats, as the sessions are
filling up quickly.

In your
neighbourhood
How to get a great tattoo
A great tattoo makes life better.
Whether you’re getting tattooed to
celebrate one of life’s milestones, to share
an experience with your best mate or to
simply wear a beautiful work of art that’s
yours forever, you want a tattoo you can
wear with pride.
You want a tattoo that makes you happy.
With such an important decision, you
need to trust your skin to the right artist.
But how do you know?
Start with the studio. You want
an environment that makes you feel
comfortable. Inside the bright orange
building on Greers Road, Jolly Octopus
Tattoos is a warm and comfortable place,
with lots of natural light and
warm wood. They’re a kind and
friendly bunch who are happy to
see you.
The best way to get a feel for
a studio environment is to drop
by and have a look. See what you
think. Another way is to check out
online reviews – see what other
people have to say about their
experiences.
Next, think about style. You want
your body art to look a certain
way: traditional style or realism,
Ta Moko, black and grey, Mandala,
watercolour, anime – the only limits are
your imagination.
The Jolly Octopus has eight great artists
to choose from. That way, no matter what
style of tattoo you’re after, they can make
sure you’ll work with an artist who will
knock it out of the park.
Finally, the last important step to getting
a great tattoo is trust.
You’ve found a studio that feels
welcoming and comfortable. You’ve got an
artist who does beautiful work in the style
you want. Now, and sometimes this can be
the hardest part, you’ve got to trust your
artist.
Communication is key. The artists at
The Jolly Octopus want you to get the best
tattoo of your life. Be honest and open
with them – you’re in good hands. To
make sure you get just what you’re after,
your artist will even sit down with you for
a free consult so you can plan your perfect
tattoo together.
A great tattoo is both a great piece of art
and a great memory. The Jolly Octopus
will give you both.

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

Tasty Bites
Creating healthy food to reduce stress
Stress is normal and often
healthy. In everyday life,
stress plays a role in alerting
us to life’s occasional
dangers and challenges, so
we can prepare ourselves for
them and find solutions to
impending problems. Poke
bowls (pronounced pohkay)
are based on the bitesized
marinated fish salad
famous in Hawaii and have
some great stress-relieving
qualities
Poke bowl
Ingredients
450g uncooked wild salmon,
skinned and cut into 2cm cubes
(or hot-roasted, if preferred)
½-1 medium ripe avocado, diced
¾ cup mango pieces, defrosted
½ cup thinly sliced capsicum
2 cups packed spicy greens, such
as watercress or mizuna, roughly
chopped
½ cup blanched broccoli florets
½ cup chopped fresh coriander
½ cup edamame beans, boiled
3 Tbsp tamari/soy sauce
2 Tsp sesame oil
1 Tbsp black sesame seeds
½ lemon, cut
Brown rice salad
2 cups cooked short-grain brown
rice, warmed
2 Tbsp rice vinegar
½ tsp turmeric
2 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
Directions
SENIOR LIVING
Gently combine salmon, tamari
and sesame oil in a medium
bowl to let the flavours infuse.
Make brown rice salad by
combining rice and greens in a
large bowl.
Whisk vinegar, oil and mustard
in a small bowl. Add to the
rice salad and mix well. Place on
the base of a bowl.
Top with all the other individual
ingredients, placing each
thing separately around the bowl

How’s your circulation?
Healthy blood circulation throughout
the body is vital for good health.
The circulatory system (cardiovascular
system) delivers nutrients and oxygen to
all cells in the body. It consists of the heart
and the blood vessels running through the
entire body. The arteries carry blood away
from the heart while the veins carry it back
to the heart.
Atherosclerosis is the most common
cause of poor blood circulation. It occurs
when plaque builds up in the blood
vessels. This plaque narrows and hardens
the blood vessels and restricts blood flow.
Plaque can also break off causing a stroke
or heart attack.
Some of the common symptoms
possibly indicating poor circulation are:
numbness and tingling in the hands and
feet; swelling (edema), itchiness, heaviness
in the feet, ankles and legs; pain and
aching in the legs feet, arms and hands;
cold hands and feet; memory loss and
difficulty concentrating; fatigue; digestive
issues including abdominal pain, diarrhea,
constipation and cramping; erectile
dysfunction (ED); severe baldness at the
crown of the head and grey hair.
Healthy blood circulation and
cardiovascular health can be supported
with Nature’s Sunshine HSII herbal
formula. This time proven formula
helps angina pains, atherosclerosis,
edema, fatigue, heart arrhythmia, heart
weakness, varicose veins and more. HSII
contains three herbs; capsicum, garlic
and hawthorn that work synergistically
to increase circulation and cardiovascular
health, while at the same time lowering
high blood pressure and aiding in the
prevention of heart attack and stroke.
Capsicum increases fibrinolytic activity
that breaks down artery plaque and
blood clots when consumed regularly
in sufficient amounts. Capsicum also
improves blood circulation by promoting
nitric oxide release in the blood stream.
Garlic has numerous health benefits
including inhibiting platelet aggregation
while encouraging the breakdown and
production of fibrin, a clotting protein
implicated in heart disease and strokes.
Garlic also has been shown to raise good
HDL cholesterol levels as well as reducing
serum triglycerides, a cardiovascular
risk factor. Hawthorn is known as a
heart tonic. Studies confirm hawthorn to
strengthen and normalise the heartbeat,
prevent and reduce heart arrhythmias and
guard the heart against oxygen deficiency.
Hawthorn also helps improve blood flow
by improving arterial health.
HSII and further information is
available from the Medical Herbalists
and Natural Health Advisers at
Marshall’s Health & Natural Therapy, 101
Seaview Road, New Brighton and Phone:

At Summerset we put you at the heart of everything
we do, so you can enjoy the freedom of living the life
you choose.
The perfect home is waiting for you. From villas and townhouses, to
apartments – you’ll find a place to make your own. Our homes are built
for warmth, and there are no worries about maintenance or upkeep as
we do it all for you. Pets are also welcome, and you can even go away
on holiday knowing your home will be safe and secure. We’ll also make
sure you’re aware of all costs, giving you the certainty that there won’t
be any unexpected surprises.
When it comes to activities and events, there’s always something
happening to keep our Summerset community involved and
entertained, and you can choose to do as much or as little as you like.
If you need some extra care or support, our continuum of care means
we’ll be there for you as your needs change, giving you the peace of
mind to continue living life to its fullest.
