Celebrating the Diwali festival in Woolston 

Anushka Bhat painted her 

hand with henna last week 

to mark the start of the 

Diwali festival. She was part 

of the group which gathered 

at the Kimihia Early Learning 

Centre in Woolston to enjoy 

some traditional Indian food, 

dancing and music. Children 

and their parents were 

joined by city councillor 

Andrew Turner for Diwali, 

which is also known as the 

Festival of Light. Several 

religions, including Hindu, 

Sikh, Jains and sometimes 

Buddhists, celebrate the 

annual five-day event, which 

officially started on Sunday.

Plan to upgrade playgrounds 

• By Jess Gibson 

A PLAYGROUND in a historic 

part of Woolston is set to get a 

refresh. 

The city council is seeking 

feedback on proposals for 

Radley playground, on Radley 

St, until November 6. 

The playground is reaching 

the end of its lifespan and will 

receive new equipment for a 

range of ages and abilities. 

It was built in the mid-1980s. 

Before that, the area was 

part of Troutdale Farm, where 

Andrew Mensal Johnson bred 

the first brown trout in New 

Zealand. 

The farm was a popular picnic 

area until it closed in the early 

1930s and a number of the 

original trees remain in the park 

today. 

There is a plaque along the 

banks of the Heathcote River 

which commemorates Mr 

Johnson. 

The city council has proposed 

new equipment which would be 

suitable for both the park setting 

and the community, including 

swings, a slide, a carousel, a seesaw 

and a fish-rocker. 

A playground in Mt Pleasant 

will also be renewed. 

King Park playground, which 

is off Quarry Rd and Rangatira 

Tce, dates back to the 1930s. 

The proposed new equipment 

includes swings, a slide, a “space 

shuttle” with rope climbing, and 

a choice between a dinosaur 

rocker or a kiwi rocker. 

Consultation for King Park 

playground is also open until 

November 6. 

Once the consultation 

period has closed for both 

playgrounds, the project 

team will analyse feedback 

and produce a report with 

a recommendation to the 

Linwood-Central-Heathcote 

Community Board. 

A decision from the board 

is expected sometime in April 

and if the plans are approved, 

construction of the playgrounds 

is likely to start in May or June.

playground upgrade, visit

REFRESH: Woolston’s Radley Park will get new play 

equipment and the city council is seeking feedback as to 

what the community wants installed. 

In Brief 

PALMERS RD REPAIRS 

The renewal of the road, footpath, 

kerb and stormwater drain on 

Palmers Rd between Bowhill Rd 

and New Brighton Rd is set to be 

completed in June next year. Some 

properties have vegetation that will 

need to be trimmed back, owners 

will be contacted. 

DRIVING CHARGES 

A man tried to evade police on 

Wednesday night. Police say they 

attempted to stop a driver, who 

fled, at 7.32pm on Montreal St. 

Police followed the fleeing vehicle 

for 2min before abandoning due 

to the manner in which it was 

being driven. Police say shortly 

afterwards the vehicle was located 

stationary at the intersection of 

Cuffs and Wainoni Rds and the 

driver was arrested. A 28-year-old 

man is scheduled to appear in 

court today charged with driving 

in a dangerous manner, failing 

to stop, and unlawfully taking a 

motor vehicle. 

VEGAN MARKET 

Christchurch’s first Vegan Night 

Mākete (Market) has started in 

Phillipstown. About 14 stall-holders 

were at the 100 per cent plantbased 

market at the Phillipstown 

Community Hub. The success of 

the first event means it will return

23, from 5 to 8pm.

Headmaster 

retiring 

after 23 years 

•From page 1 

“For me, I really want to ensure 

that we continue to provide really 

high quality learning for the boys 

in eastern Christchurch and I 

think also just to make sure that 

we re-establish what the culture of 

Shirley Boys’ is now that we’re in a 

co-located environment,” said Mr 

Grocott. 

Mr Laurenson has been 

headmaster at SBHS for 23 years, 

leading the school community 

through its recovery from the 

February 22, 2011, earthquake. He 

indicated he would retire after he 

had settled the school into its new 

co-location site with Avonside 

Girls’ High School at QEII last 

year. 

He formally announced his 

retirement in August. 

“Mr Grocott has worked hard 

over the last four years in the 

design and build of our new 

school and has good relationships 

with the key stakeholders in our 

community,” said SBHS board of 

trustees chairman Tony Deavoll. 

“He has a strong commitment 

to single-sex boy’s education and 

a great love for Shirley Boys’ High 

School, and we look forward to 

his leadership of our school over 

the next few years.” 

Different parts of Indian culture were on show at the Diwali celebrations last week. Diwali signifies the triumph of 

light over darkness and good over evil. It commemorates the return of Lord Rama, his wife and brother from their 

14-year exile and their defeat of the 10-headed demon-king Ravana.

More than 60 entries 

in Art Couture festival 

BURWOOD’S NAOMI Flasher 

won the supreme award at 

wearable art festival Art Couture. 

Designers from across the city 

took out top prizes at the festival 

on October 19 in Lincoln. 

More than 60 participants from 

across the South Island gathered 

to compete. 

It was the third annual show 

and the first time it included a 

body art category. 

Organiser Kim Strange said 

the body art category was a great 

addition to the show. 

“The designers painted for 

about eight hours at the event 

centre on the day of the show. The 

body art was well received and we 

look forward to having this in the 

show in 2020,” she said.

Digital Technology Brings 

Huge Benefits to Denture Wearers 

Not ones to follow the pack, Duchenne Denture 

Specialists have always been a company of firsts: 

– First to bring to you Duchenne’s DigiCare Denture System 

– First to introduce suction dentures to New Zealand 

– The only state-of-the-art laboratory of its kind in New Zealand 

– The only company in Christchurch that processes their dentures 

with injection moulding – for greater strength and a superior fit 

Why is Duchenne DigiCare better? 

• Faster, simplified 

process 

• Added strength 

and comfort 

These are all fantastic advances 

which the company are very 

proud of – and with good reason. 

But when it comes to dentures, 

there are only four things that 

really matter – appearance, fit, 

strength and comfort. 

And Duchenne Denture 

Specialists’ new Advanced 

DigiCare Technology offers major 

improvements in all these areas. 

Appearance 

This new technology allows 

us to make adjustments and 

changes that are more precise 

than before for a better, more 

natural appearance. 

Fit 

Duchenne can now also measure 

the final fit in microns, there is 

no shrinkage and you can try out 

your denture before it is finished 

– all helping to ensure a better, 

more accurate fit. 

• Easy 

replacements 

• Shorter 

wait times 

• Locally 

produced 

• Finest quality 

products 

Strength 

Thanks to the technology’s 

unique bridging system, there 

is significantly less chance of 

dentures breaking or fracturing. 

Comfort 

Even the best technology 

is no use if dentures aren’t 

comfortable, and again digital 

dentures show their superiority 

here, as they are crafted from 

a much denser acrylic so 

are thinner and lighter. 

However, Duchenne still 

believe it is the human touch 

that matters most. “The most 

satisfying thing is the personal 

contact, and relationships 

we build with our clients,” 

explains Duchenne’s owner, 

John Batchelor.

News 

From Wainoni to the world pageant stage 

• By Georgia O’Connor- 

Harding 

WHEN EMILY Sullivan was in 

primary school she was ridiculed 

for her looks and often asked out 

by boys as a joke. 

“I didn’t grow up with the most 

friends – a lot of guys were mean 

to me. Often it was just to get a 

reaction and carried on into my 

teenage years,” she said. 

But now the 22-year-old is a 

strong feminist who uses beauty 

pageants to fight for women’s 

autonomy over their bodies. 

Looking back, the Wainoni 

resident said while the bullying 

hurt her, it has helped her develop 

a thick skin and appreciation for 

who she is. Her strong views and 

confidence has seen her named 

the New Zealand delegate for the 

Miss Global Organisation. Sullivan, 

a performer and Anytime 

Fitness Rangiora personal trainer, 

will travel to Mexico next year to 

represent NZ at the international 

beauty contest. 

“I am so flipping excited,” she 

said. 

She was named the New Zealand 

delegate on Saturday at the 

Miss Five Crowns New Zealand 

competition. She earned the title 

after coming in the top 15 at the 

World Supermodel Pageant in Fiji 

earlier this year. 

The competition raised $15,000 

for Youthline. 

Sullivan will need to raise $2000 

for her entry fee to the competition 

in Mexico. 

Having raised $3000 for Youthline 

two years ago through her 

beauty pageant work, Sullivan 

described its work as “critical”, 

particularly in light of the mental 

health issues the city is dealing 

with today. 

She said “thousands and thousands” 

of people called Youthline 

following the March 15 attacks 

and it is a “cornerstone” of the 

community. 

While beauty contests have often 

come under fire for encouraging 

women to measure their self-worth 

through their physical attributes, 

for Sullivan it is more than a modelling 

competition. 

She has used her platform to discuss 

feminism and women’s right 

to abortion. 

“Often what people don’t realise 

is it is a huge decision for women 

to make. Women should have the 

right to choose what they want to 

do with their body.” 

Last year, the 22-year-old 

challenged National Party leader 

Simon Bridges at a community 

meeting in Taupo over why he 

hadn’t taken abortion out of the 

Crimes Act 1961. 

While her challenge received 

backlash, Sullivan does not regret 

using her position to stand up for 

what she believes in. 

A National Academy of Singing 

and Dramatic Art graduate, 

Sullivan first got into beauty 

pageants two years ago to help her 

with her stage confidence. 

Never expecting her pageant 

career to take off in her first 

competition, she was named Miss 

Five Crowns South Island two 

years ago. 

Sullivan believes the reason 

beauty pageants often get a bad 

name is because women are 

sometimes sexualised and many 

believe the contests encourage 

anti-feminism. 

She said the problem is women 

will often get into beauty pageants 

for the wrong reasons and will 

get lost in physical aspects of the 

competition rather than using it 

as a platform to discuss important 

issues. 

“You have got to have substance, 

you have to dig deep,” she said. 

While Sullivan’s views on 

feminism have grown, small issues 

such as being told she couldn’t 

play bullrush because she was girl 

“ignited a flame” in her as a child. 

But she said the issues she has 

faced are minor compared to what 

others experiences with human 

trafficking and domestic violence. 

UPCOMING: Emily Sullivan 

will represent New Zealand 

next year in Mexico at the 

Miss Global Organisation 

beauty pageant.

Nicky de Clifford Lisa Hutchison Julia Dawson Claire Harre 

Owner/Operator Owner/Operator International Consultant International Consultant 

This year Nicky has stayed 

close to home with family 

holidays to both Fiji and 

Samoa. Samoa was a real 

highlight for her as she 

found it to be super relaxed 

and not affected by tourism 

too much – plus Samoa 

offers fabulous beaches, 

stunning natural scenery and it is well priced. 

This year Lisa has had a 

family holiday to Rarotonga 

in the school holidays and 

stayed at the lovely Pacific 

Resort on Muri Lagoon. She 

also had a two week jaunt 

around Italy and France with 

Globus Tours and she loved 

reconnecting with Europe. 

Julia has just returned from 

a fantastic adventure over 

in Turkey. She loves to get 

off the beaten track and 

experienced all Turkey has 

to offer with G Adventures, 

which is a small group tour. 

She loved Turkey and found 

it very safe and welcoming. 

This year Claire visited 

Japan on a Wendy WU Tour. 

She absolutely loved this 

fantastic country and found 

the experience with Wendy 

Wu to be seamless, so she 

didn’t need to worry but 

just enjoy the scenery and 

culture.

it she is off to Thailand for a 

month away. Heading from 

the North to the South she 

is planning on seeing it all!! 

For 2020 Melissa has no set 

plans but we hope to get 

her over to one of the Pacific 

Islands. 

This year Bella visited 

Thailand and Phuket with her 

family. She loved spending 

time hanging on the beach, 

enjoying the cuisine and 

spending time with her kids. 

She also visited Argentina, 

Uruguay and Brazil on an 

Intrepid small group tour. 

This year Jodie did a 

whirlwind trip of the major 

Asian cities – Singapore, 

Kuala Lumpur and Bangkok. 

She loved them all but found 

them quite different from 

each other. She loved KL 

with its fantastic shopping, 

markets and awesome 

sightseeing. 

This year Aimee has been on 

a P&O Cruise with her family 

which she really loved for the 

easy laid-back holiday which 

is largely all inclusive. She 

also spent about 10 days 

in Bali and travelled around 

a bit to experience the 

different areas to stay.

CANTERBURY’S top secondary 

school sportsmen and women 

were honoured at the 29th Zonta 

Awards at the Hornby Working 

Men’s Club on Thursday night. 

Hillmorton High School 

para-swimmer Celyn Edwards 

continued his award-winning 

streak by claiming the award 

for the most outstanding 

achievement by a young 

sportsman with a disability. 

The 18-year-old, who was the 

supreme award winner at the 

Hillmorton Sports Awards a 

fortnight ago had another stellar 

year in the pool. 

Edwards competed at the 

world championships in London 

last month where he finished 

sixth in the 100m backstroke, 

eighth in the 100m butterfly and 

14th in the 100m breaststroke. 

This came on the heels of some 

top national performances in 

June where he was first in the 

100m breaststroke, second in the 

50m butterfly, 100m backstroke 

and 200m individual medley 

respectively and then third in the 

100m freestyle.

The 

Mairehau 

Challenge 

Achievement 

Responsibility 

Empathy 

Way 

End of year exams 

for senior students 

From the Principals Desk 

I wish to bring our community up to date 

with the next steps towards the Mairehau 

High School current building project. 

The Mairehau High School Board of Trustees, Ministry of 

Education (MOE Property Division) and OPUS international 

consultants are working collaboratively to develop and 

implement our school property and masterplan. The 

proposed new development for Mairehau High School 

offers an opportunity to provide a new 21st-century 

Technology and Supported Learning education facility. 

Consideration has also been given to rebuilding our 

gymnasium changing rooms. There are several distinct 

phases to the property plan. Each phase is aligned to 

Greater Christchurch Network of Schools, i.e. predicted 

MOE roll growth. The new building (Phase 1) caters for 

the future of teaching and learning practices. The school’s 

revised master plan reflects the latest budget and MOE 

growth projection figures. The main structure of our 

gymnasium is sound; however, there is a real need to 

rebuild storage, changing room, and classroom facilities. 

It also outlines the aspirations and fundamental 

pedagogical needs of Mairehau High School and the 

Ministry. Our Technology, Hospitality, ICT, Supported 

Learning, and PE and Health teachers are meeting 

and working together on the design of the building. 

The proposed 500 build roll master plan development 

is planned to start on site in December 2020 with a 

final completion date yet to be established. 

The build roll has been confirmed as 500 pupils and 

the master plan roll as 800 pupils. The transition roll 

(i.e. the highest expected roll before the completion 

of the project) is expected to be able to be 

accommodated for within the existing buildings. 

The master plan design considers both the build roll 

of 500 and the master plan roll of 800, which allows 

for future growth. 

The construction 

budget for the 500 pupil 

build roll has been confirmed 

as $14.5 million. 

We are very excited about 

our masterplan and future 

building project. We will 

continue to develop positive 

outcomes and learning 

experiences for our students. 

Harry Romana, 

Principal 

We have many budding 

baristas in our Year 9 and 

Year 10 cohorts. Under the 

guidance of our trained 

barista, junior students have 

been given the opportunity 

to work on their coffee 

making skills and care of 

the barista machine. 

Encouraging 

excellence 

in our 

community 

Harry Romana, 

Principal 

It is examination time again for our senior students, 

and no doubt many will already be studying 

hard in preparation. The exam period runs from 

Friday 8th November through until Monday 2nd 

December. 

From midday on Monday 4th November, 

timetabled classes will no longer run for Years 11, 

12 and 13 students (except those in the Supported 

Learning Centre) and they will officially be on 

examination leave. All senior students, regardless of 

whether they are sitting external examinations or 

not, are expected to use this time productively. 

There will be a study room open for anyone who 

finds it tricky to study at home, and teachers 

are also making times with students to work on 

exam preparation, or to finish off any internal 

assessments to get those last-minute credits! 

Our best wishes go with all of our students as 

they embark on this next important stage of 

their education journey. Hard work, preparation 

and perseverance will always pay dividends and 

we look forward to some excellent results and 

achievements from our students again this year.

Year 10 Business 

Challenge 

BP Business Challenge is a Young Enterprise programme 

that was organized at school for our Year 10 Flexible 

Learning Class. 

The BP Business Challenge was delivered for the first time 

at our school. Most of the Year 10 students participated 

in this three-day competition. They were coming up with 

some business ideas and were presenting their most 

creative work at the end of each day. On the last day of this 

competition they presented their best business project to 

the five judges. 

Many thanks to our judges of Ken Howat (Manager, 

Switched On Group), Huia Saitaga (Artist), Val Erasmusson 

(former teacher), Matt Cooper (BP Young Entrprise) and 

Gyaney Pradhan (BP Young Enterprise) 

Congratulations to our winners: 

1st place: Aleisha Bouma, Hensley Sampang, Lily Baker

Supported Learning Basketball 

I couldn’t be prouder of our basketballers. 

In 2017, we started in Division 3. This 

year we moved to Division 2 and took 

out 1st place within that division. A 

great big thank you to excellent coaches 

in Easter and Tara. They have practised 

with the students daily. Thanks also to 

our wonderful caregivers who came 

to support and to Fiona for giving the 

students heaps of encouragement each 

week. 

Well done everyone.

The participating students. 

Over the course of Week 10 of Term 3, the Mairehau HOP 

team took the PED301, SNROED, PED101 and OED101 

classes to Craigieburn for some epic adventures!! 

In the breathtakingly beautiful mountains, this lucky 

crew tramped, mountain biked, navigated and did 

lots of other cool little activities like bivvy building 

and cooking marshmallows over fires they made for 

breakfast! We made some amazing life-long memories 

and very much enjoyed the glorious weather - even the 

4 inches of snow we woke up to one morning - brrrrrr! 

The winning team: Aleisha Bouma, Hensley Sampang 

and Lily Baker. 

Year 13 Biology 

This was the Year 13 Biology Field Trip 

to Orana park. The field trip was for the 

purpose to learn more about human 

evolution which is one of the external 

exams. The students got to see the 

different types of primates at the zoo 

and study models of skulls that have 

been found that pave the path from the 

evolution of modern day humans from 

primates. The students enjoyed the field 

trip and were able to measure and handle 

the skulls to help visualize what they had 

been learning in class

perfect for this) 

3 large good-quality eggs, at 

room temperature 

1 cup sugar 

1 tsp vanilla 

1 cup flour 

Pinch cinnamon 

Directions 

Grease an 18cm round cake 

tin with removable bottom. Line 

with greaseproof paper. 

Prepare the apples by peeling 

and removing core. Cut the 

apples into small chunks and 

place directly into prepared cake 

tin. 

Using an electric mixer, whisk 

the eggs with the sugar and 

vanilla until thick and airy and 

ribbons form on the surface. 

Sift in the flour and fold 

through until just combined. 

Pour over the apples – the egg 

mixture should end up level with 

the apples. Bake in a pre-heated 

oven for 40-45min or until a 

skewer comes out clean. Cool for 

10min in the tin then remove and 

cool. This cake is delicious warm 

or cold. 

Okonomiyaki pancake 

Makes 4 large or 8 small 

Ingredients 

½ small cabbage, very thinly 

sliced 

4 carrots, julienned or sliced as 

thinly as possible 

½ red onion, sliced thinly 

4 leaves kale, cavolo nero, stalks 

removed and sliced very thin 

1 tsp salt 

6 eggs, lightly beaten 

½ cup flour or rice flour 

Oil for frying 

To serve 

2 spring onions, sliced thinly 

Japanese mayonnaise 

Okonomiyaki sauce 

Directions 

Toss all the prepared vegetables 

and salt together in a large bowl. 

Mix through the eggs and flour 

until evenly combined. 

Heat a large fry pan on 

medium-high heat. Coat the 

bottom of the fry pan with oil. 

When hot, add pancake 

mixture. 

Make either four large or eight 

small. These pancakes should 

be thick (½cm) and full of 

vegetables. 

If making the large ones you 

may only be able to cook one at 

a time. If this is the case, you can 

refresh them in a warm oven. 

Cook them until golden and 

crispy (3min). 

Carefully flip and continue 

cooking until golden on the other 

side. When cooked, remove and 

keep warm. Serve with sauces 

squiggled over the top and 

sprinkle with spring onions. 

Optional toppings are pork 

belly slices or shrimps.

REAL ESTATE 

Modern magnificence 

237 Mt Pleasant Road, Mount Pleasant 

Auction: Thur 7 Nov at 4pm, on site (unless sold prior) 

3 Bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 2 car garaging | Listing Number OPA24823 

Impeccably crafted and executed, this 

spectacular brand new property overlooks 

outstanding scenery, combining striking 

visual form with the utmost convenience to 

comfortably accommodate modern family 

living. 

Newly constructed to the latest 

specifications, this build will provide peace 

of mind, the architectural finish satisfying an 

appetite for elegance. 

Bold black cedar and Rockcote over 

Integra panel cladding complements 

the oak flooring indoors where designer 

detailing include a David Trubridge feature 

light, quality McKenzie and Willis window 

furnishings and an exquisite kitchen. 

Magnificent ocean and estuary views with 

the sensational mountain views out to the 

Kaikoura’s provide a sense of serenity, and 

the glistening city lights ensure your outlook 

is idyllic, even by night. 

The intelligent layout places a strong 

emphasis on lifestyle, which will appeal 

to both families and couples who adore 

entertaining. 

Anchoring the open plan living is the chic 

kitchen, complete with island bench, walk-in 

pantry, high-end tiling and appliances. Eco 

and hardwood decking effortlessly extends 

from the home to provide outdoor living 

areas across both floors, with a level lawn and 

landscaped garden the perfect private setting 

for socialising. 

Excellent in-built storage options, and 

contemporary convenience with partial 

underfloor heating, two heatpumps, LED 

lighting, gas fire, superior insulation and 

double-glazing heightening comfort levels. 

Three bedrooms accompanied by two 

tiled bathrooms, the master enjoying a walkin 

robe and ensuite. A second area can be 

utilised in many ways: extra living, study or 

even a media room if required. 

Flat drive-on access and double internal 

access garaging is a bonus for any hillside 

home, while zoning for Mt Pleasant and 

Redcliffs Primary Schools represent yet 

another advantage. 

This property will appeal to seekers 

of a post-quake new build exuding lowmaintenance 

luxury and design excellence. 

Open Homes Wednesday 11:30-12:00pm 

and Saturday and Sunday 3:30-4:00pm. 

See you at an open home or call Simon
