Path trialled to keep pupils safe
• By Matt Slaughter
AN INITIATIVE is being
trialled to reduce traffic outside
Aidanfield Christian School and
keep pupils safe.
A group of pupils want a
walking path built from the
school to the Nga Puna Wai
Sports Hub car park, where they
now get dropped off and picked
up in a bid to reduce congestion
outside the
school.
They have
been working
with Halswell
Ward city
councillor
Anne
Galloway to

Galloway
make the idea
a reality.
On Friday,
the pupils
took part in a supervised trial
walk along a marked out path
to gauge interest in the idea.
Cr Galloway said the trail
was carried out to decide if a
permanent pathway is needed.
She said getting to and from
the school can be dangerous for
both pedestrians and motorists.
“It’s a safety issue for
everybody,” she said.
“It’s a safety issue for the

“People from all over the city
drive to that school, so there’s
going to be an issue always with
cars unfortunately. It’s a very
congested area, it’s got lots of
entrances and exits. It’s quite a
complex situation.”
Cr Galloway said a pathway
from Nga Puna Wai to the
school could help to address
the safety
concerns
“That
could be an
opportunity
for that
dangerous
situation to
be remediated
along

Drive.”

Malawi visit next year
•From page 1
He also received the Greatest
Individual Impact Award, for
almost single-handedly raising
$14,000 for World Vision.
“These awards highlight my
passion to help as well as the huge
amount of work that the school
has encouraged us to do over the
years to support World Vision,”
he said.
Said Izaac on raising the
$14,000: “I started to email celebrities
across the globe ranging
from Graham Norton, Ellen De-
Generes, multiple different actors
and celebrities overseas and also
many famous New Zealanders.”
Izaac did not get many responses
but heard back from
Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern,
Nico Porteus, some All Blacks
and other New Zealand artists.
From there, he had the idea to
host an art auction, which raised
$12,000, he then door-knocked
and approached family members,
which raised another $2000.
Next year, Izaac will travel to
Malawi with four other World
Vision Ambassadors and see
where the funds from the 40hr
famine will go.
“This is a long way from home,
making it an exciting adventure
for myself and the other four
ambassadors going on the trip. I
feel excited but ready for the challenge,”
he said.
Once he returns from Malawi,
he will visit schools across the
country to assist with fundraising
for World Vision, and he said
one of his key goals is to increase
participation in the famine across
Christchurch.
“I feel so privileged and blessed
to be able to help World Vision
with its global work and to be
able to help it make a change is
something that will stick with me
forever,” he said.
HUMANITARIAN:
When Izaac
Wilson goes to
Malawi next year,
he will witness
first-hand the
work World
Vision does,
such as helping
communities
access clean
water.
TV star preps for Mars project
LARISSA WILSON is preparing
for the voyage of a lifetime: A
mission to Mars – or at least an
experience that comes close.
Last year, Miss Wilson starred
in New Zealand TV series, The
Great Kiwi Bake Off, a spin-off
of one of the United Kingdom’s
most popular shows, the Great
British Bake Off.
The Canterbury
University mechanical
engineering student wanted
to prove there was a science to
baking.
Now, her degree is taking
her to the Mars Desert Research
Station in Utah, United States,
where she
will spend two weeks
researching.
The station, owned and
operated by the Mars Society,
is a space analogue facility
supporting earth-based research
in pursuit of the technology,
operations and science required
for human space exploration.
Set in a Utah desert much
like the Mars surface, the
station offers opportunities for
field studies as they would be
conducted during an actual
space mission.
Said Miss Wilson: “I am
incredibly excited to take part
in a simulated Mars mission
with a crew of talented and
knowledgeable people from
MISSION: Former television baking programme star Larissa
Wilson will head to a Utah desert soon to take part in a Mars
research project.

around Australia.
“I have loved the idea of
space exploration and learning
about outer space since I was
a small child. I feel incredibly
honoured to have been
selected as part of Expedition
Boomerang and I’m eager to
experience what being an early
explorer of the red planet might
be like.
“Some of these projects will
require me to take on a lot of
new information and I hope to
learn about the application of a
range of fields of science such as
geology and human biology in
an ‘alien’ setting.
“I also hope to complete some
of my own research, possibly
in the realm of acoustics
engineering which is the field
in which I plan to work,” Miss
Wilson said.

involved with the Mars
Desert Research Station since
2011.

•From page 1
Andrei Moore, who was only
one-year-old when Mr Mora
began on the board said he was
really excited to give back to a
community that had given him
so much.
“Halswell has been my
home for 28 years, I was
adopted from Romania when
I was a couple of weeks old
so instead of growing up in
Romania I got to grow up in a
wonderful place called Halswell,
and I believe I owe everything
to Halswell and the people
within it,” he said.
Mr Mora had a long list
of issues he wanted to
address before retiring from the
board.
“The South West Leisure
Centre, the Halswell Junction
Rd extension, getting issues
sorted out with the Yaldhurst
Village development, getting
the old Sockburn Service
Centre tidied up as well as
Sockburn Park, and sort out a
lot of reasonably minor issues
in Halswell such as crossings in
order to make pedestrian and
cyclist access in some of the new
developments better.”
Community board member
Andrei Moore
Helen Broughton, who
represents the Riccarton Ward,
was concerned none of Mr
Mora’s priorities focused on
Riccarton.
“We are off to a rocky start
really because I’m not prepared
to have Riccarton ignored,” she
said.
Ms Broughton said she
wanted to deal with the effects
of medium density zoning and
traffic congestion.
“Medium density zoning
promoted at 30 people per
hectare is tracking at 70 people
per hectare – far beyond
planners expectations.”

Entertainer honoured with local hero award
• By Matt Slaughter
KATHLEEN HOOD has spent 40
years putting smiles on the faces of
Christchurch’s elderly.
The 86-year-old entertains residents
at Middlepark Rest Home,
Upper Riccarton, Elmswood Retirement
Village, Bryndwr, and has
previously done so at The Princess
Margaret Hospital.
This volunteering work has
earned her a Kiwibank New Zealand
Local Hero of the Year Award,
which she and other Christchurch
local heroes will receive at a ceremony
on December 3.
Mrs Hood tells jokes, reads poetry
and runs a quiz each time she
visits retirement homes.
She said this brings joy to their
residents and the quizzes include
historic questions, which bring back
memories and often start nostalgic
conversations between them.
“It’s really good because the questions
I ask are relevant to their age
and their experiences in life. They
do really enjoy it.”
Mrs Hood said her favourite thing
about what she does and the reason
she has been doing it for so many
years is it brings happiness to people
who sometimes need it most.
“The best thing for me is giving
to these older people. Some of
them have had very lonely lives
and when they come into the rest
home they’re a wee bit nervous.
She said when she entertains
residents “there’s a lot of laughter, I
can even tell a few risque jokes and
they enjoy all that.”
Mrs Hood said not even health
issues were able to stop her volunteering
for long.
“I did have two challenges with
cancer but I have had surgery and
I’m really fine now, everything’s all
good.’’
She said she was back in front
of retirement home audiences “as
soon as I could get back behind the
wheel.”
Mrs Hood is proud to receive a
local hero award this year.
“I never ever expected it and
when it came everybody around
me, my family and my friends
were all saying well deserved. It’s
very humbling and it will be to be
among people who have done marvellous
things in the community on
the night of the awards.”
But Mrs Hood said winning
awards is not why she volunteers
her time.
“If you ask any volunteer, it’s not
for accolades or recognition, you
don’t do it for that, it’s just for the
love of doing it, I suppose.”
She hopes her efforts will inspire
her children, grandchildren and
great-grandchildren to volunteer in
their communities.

Cycling to school not what it used to be
• By Louis Day
IN THE late 1970s, up to 75 per
cent of students were making
their daily commute by bicycle to
some high schools.
However, new statistics from
the city council show few schools
had more than 10 per cent of
students cycling to school last
year.
While the city
council statistics
from 1979 showed
75 per cent of
Burnside High
students cycled to
school, last year
Phil
only seven per cent
were making the
trip by bicycle.
Holstein
Burnside High principal Phil
Holstein said the latest figures are
“sad but not surprising.”
“Looking at the nature of
the school’s location on a very
busy Memorial Ave/Greers
Rd intersection, the volume of
traffic is a significant part of that
[students cycling less]. I don’t
think parents think it is safe to
let their young children bike to
school,” he said.
The schools with more than
60 per cent of students cycling in
the 1970s were Cashmere High
(60 per cent), Christchurch Boys’
High (67 per cent), Christchurch
Girls’ High (64 per cent) and
Papanui High (73 per cent). But
last year, only 13 per cent of
Cashmere High students cycled
to school, while eight per cent of
Papanui High students did.
Out of 15 schools recently
surveyed, Christ’s College
had the highest proportion of
students cycling to school last
year with 34 per cent.
The second highest was CBHS
with 25 per cent. It also had
the second highest increase in
students cycling between 2016
and 2018 with a six per cent rise.
CGHS experienced the highest
rise with a 10 per cent increase to
15 per cent.
City councillor Sara Templeton
felt the increases had a lot to do
with the opening of the Uni-
Cycle route in 2016, which runs
adjacent to CBHS and CGHS.
“It’s the one thing that seems
to be the most different to the
other schools, it’s having a high
amenity cycleway right next
to it. Before I was elected as
a community board member
and a councillor, I was part of a
travel safe planning group at a
local school and we did lots of
surveying and lots of kids wanted
to bike to school and the key
thing that stopped them from
biking was the parents perception
of safety,” she said.
CBHS principal Nic Hill said
it is possible the Uni-Cycle route
has contributed to the rise. But
he also thought the growth
of cycling as a sport could be

number of students cycling

contributing to the
increase.
“Cycling is a
growing sport
here, we are
the national
champions here
two years in a
row. Cycling as a
Nic Hill
sport is on a rise
nationally and certainly at Boys’
High.”
However, CBHS and CGHS
are not the only schools located
next to a cycleway. Papanui High
sits next to the Northern Line
Cycleway and experienced a one
per cent decrease in students
cycling to school between 2016
and 2018.

current and future music
students.

Big future for young filmmakers
• By Claire Booker
SELECTED HARDWARE
FREYA CHAMPION had acted
in one short film before her
fellow Christchurch Girls’ High
School classmates recruited her
for their media studies project.
But last week her talents were
recognised at the Ara School
Shorts Screen Festival, where she
was named best actress.
The film Lured was made by
CGHS students Louise Kim and
Georgie Baddeley, who created it
in their media studies class.
Freya played the leading role of
Liz, a young woman investigating
the sudden disappearance of
her best friend.
Louise, who lives in
Halswell, wrote the
script for the film
after researching
pseudo-religion
and finding
out about
multiple
historic
cult-related
murders.
Lured
was one of
19 films
showcased
at the
competition
final at The
Palms. The
short films
were screened
at Reading Cinemas.
Said Louise: “It was one of the
most exciting moments of my
life to have our film screened in
an actual cinema and having an
audience to watch it.”
Freya was surprised to take out
best actress, and said it was a real
honour.
Her passion for acting has
flourished over the past few
years as she has been involved
in theatre sports and small
productions.
“As I have only starred in one
other film, I wasn’t quite sure
what would tick the boxes for
the judges, so I was
pleasantly surprised to receive
the award,” she said. The 18-yearold
also has a passion for politics
and earlier this year attended the
Youth Parliament as the Youth
MP for Christchurch Central
Labour MP Duncan Webb.
Freya said the highlight of
being involved in the film was
working with her two best
friends.
“Georgie and Louise had a
great vision for the film, and
because of our friendship, we
were able to easily communicate
ideas and this allowed us to film
in a good environment,” she said.
Next year, Freya, Georgie and
Louise will go their separate
ways to study, but will
continue to develop their
skills and passion in
film.
“Delicious and
satisfying!”

CGHS aim for national cricket title
• By Jacob Page
THE CHRISTCHURCH Girls’
High School first XI cricket team
will look to go one better when
they compete in the Gillette
Venus Cup national secondary
schoolgirls competition.
CGHS will represent Canterbury
as one of six schools that
will play a twenty20 competition
in Christchurch from December
6 to 8.
Each of New Zealand’s six
cricket districts are represented
Otago, Canterbury, Central District’s
Wellington, Auckland and
Northern Districts.
The team finished third in
2017 and were runners-up in
2019.
The team had convincing wins
over a Forward Foundation XI,
Rangi Ruru and Burnside High
School to qualify for the tournament.
Last year they beat everyone
except Dunedin’s St Hilda’s Collegiate
and they will again have
the potential to be the toughest
opponents.
CGHS coach Hannah Beatson
said the two teams played each
other in the first ever women’s
match at The Willows a fortnight
ago with the visitors once again
coming out on top.
“It was close and I think we are
capable of turning it around.”
Beatson also has a settled
squad to call upon with only one
new player this season.
“Their work ethic and ability
to show character and culture
means they are a supportive unit.
SPORT
“I’m confident I have a team
that can do the processes well
and the results will come from
that.”
Left-arm quick Georgia Edge,
who is contracted to the Canterbury
Magicians, will be one to
watch while Libby Stead and Lila
Bradley are the spinners.
In the batting, Grace Ansell,

body on the line when it is
needed.’’

Basketball’s best to play in all-star game
• By Jacob Page
THE BEST secondary school
basketball players in Canterbury
will get their chance to impress
in respective boys and girls
all-star games before the New
Zealand Breakers game at
Horncastle Arena next month.
St Thomas’ Tanae Lavery, Benji
Freeman and Quinn Lavery,
Middleton Grange’s Katie Jo Van
Den Bogaert, Maia Williamson,
Annabel Lapworth, Ah-Li
Fenika, Ben Carlile-Smith, Trey
Te Awa, Jimmer Williamson and
Zach Hannen as well as Burnside’s
Sila Morris will all take
part in the games.
The Breakers will host the
South East Melbourne Phoenix
on December 20.
The girls game will tip off at
2.10pm and the boys game will
tip off at 3.50pm followed by the
Breakers and Phoenix at 7.30pm.
The high school games come
after the Thomson and Whelan
Trophy season as well as strong
national campaigns where
Cashmere High School finished
fourth in the boys competition
and Christchurch Girls’ High
School finished eighth in the
girls’ grade.
Organiser, Joe Hammond said
the plan was to split the squads
into two even teams to produce
two even encounters.
He said squads were picked
by the top six high school boys
coaches and former Canterbury
Wildcats coach Lori McDaniel.
“It’s been a couple of years
since the game was held, but I
think it’s a great way to recognise
the effort and achievements of
the players throughout the season,”
Mr Hammond said.
There are also plans to
livestream the two games.
OPPORTUNITY: Middleton Grange players Trey
Te Awa and Katie van den Bogaert will play in
the Canterbury high school all-star game at
Horncastle Arena on December 20.
“The Breakers have said the
team will try to watch the concluding
stages of the games so
hopefully it will give the kids a
big buzz.’’

Love the life
you choose
When you move into a Summerset retirement village, you’re not just
moving house – you’re joining a vibrant and welcoming community
where you’ll feel completely at home.
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
accessible, high-quality, 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.
Over 5,000 residents are already enjoying the Summerset life across
26 villages around New Zealand. If you’re interested in Summerset for

villages to find out more.
