Options mooted to upgrade<br />

bus hub and make it safer<br />

• By Matt Slaughter<br />

OPTIONS BEING considered to<br />

improve the public transport hub<br />

on Buckleys Rd in Linwood could<br />

make it safer and more appealing.<br />

Said Norwich St resident Neale<br />

Tomlinson, whose house is near<br />

the hub: “Where the bus stops are<br />

now, which is over our fence, there<br />

is a bit of a problem, it’s not as bad<br />

as it used to be, but it is a bit of a<br />

problem with the bus stops getting<br />

smashed really quite regularly and<br />

rubbish and what have you.”<br />

The city council has reported<br />

the bus shelters on Buckleys Rd are<br />

small and inadequate for the about<br />

1400 passengers who use them a day.<br />

It says getting across Buckleys Rd is<br />

also difficult for passengers because<br />

of the high volume of traffic that<br />

uses the road.<br />

It says some of the 480 buses that<br />

use the Buckleys Rd stops each day<br />

block people’s driveways.<br />

The city council is asking for<br />

feedback on possible options to<br />

upgrade the bus hub and reduce<br />

these issues.<br />

It is proposing two potential<br />

options. The first option is to<br />

cul-de-sac Norwich St. It says<br />

this will allow the bus stops to be<br />

grouped together and more space<br />

to be created for bus passengers<br />

waiting.<br />

Urgent call to reduce shellfish<br />

gathering limits in at-risk estuary<br />

• By Jess Gibson<br />

A CALL to urgently reduce the<br />

daily limit for shellfish collection<br />

in the Avon Heathcote Estuary<br />

has fallen flat.<br />

The Avon-Heathcote Estuary<br />

Ihutai Trust chairman Kit<br />

Doudney wrote to Ministry for<br />

Primary Industries requesting the<br />

daily recreational limit be lowered<br />

from 150 to 25 per person.<br />

The trust agreed last Wednesday<br />

a reduction would be its short<br />

term goal for protecting the estuary<br />

while it worked out a way to<br />

enforce a harvesting ban.<br />

However, MPI director of<br />

fisheries management Stuart<br />

Anderson said it would take a<br />

minimum of one year to lower<br />

the recreational daily limits in the<br />

estuary.<br />

“The process would include formal<br />

consultation and the government’s<br />

approval of any changes,”<br />

he said.<br />

Mr Anderson said signs will be<br />

erected in the estuary enforcing<br />

the limit of 150 in the next couple<br />

of months as there is currently<br />

nothing stating the rules.<br />

The impact of shellfish gathering<br />

in the estuary on shellfish<br />

numbers, birdlife, and human<br />

health has been of growing<br />

concern for its surrounding communities.<br />

Mr Doudney said the community<br />

was likely to be “very<br />

disappointed” that reducing the<br />

collection limit would now have<br />

to become one of the trust’s long<br />

term goals.<br />

The trust also has a long<br />

term goal of working with Ngai<br />

Tuahuriri to develop a mataitai,<br />

which would allow tangata<br />

whenua to enforce a ban.<br />

However, because a mataitai<br />

may take months or years to<br />

instigate, the trust saw a reduction<br />

as a way to control excessive<br />

gathering in the interim.<br />

He said the trust will discuss<br />

possible short term goals at its<br />

meeting next month.<br />

Mr Doudney said signs being<br />

put in at the estuary was a “positive”<br />

but he was sceptical of how<br />

long they would last, as the last<br />

set disappeared.<br />

Fisheries officers regularly<br />

patrol the estuary to ensure<br />

harvesting is lawful. Penalties are<br />

in place for non-compliance.<br />

LET DOWN:<br />

Estuary<br />

Ihutai Trust<br />

chairman<br />

Kid Doudney<br />

said residents<br />

would be<br />

disappointed<br />

a plan to<br />

improve the<br />

health of the<br />

Avon Heathcote<br />

Estuary<br />

will take more<br />

than a year.<br />

Tough kids get wet and muddy<br />

MORE THAN 5000 primary and<br />

intermediate school pupils took<br />

on mud pits, obstacles and tyre<br />

runs as part of the annual MASH<br />

Tough Kid challenge held in<br />

South New Brighton last week.<br />

The event first started following<br />

earthquakes to encourage sports<br />

participation and boost morale,<br />

now it also helps reduce screen<br />

time and improve mental health.<br />

Schools from across Canterbury<br />

got involved, with some<br />

coming from as far as Hanmer<br />

Springs and Windwhistle.<br />

The 2.7km course included<br />

waterslides, mud pits, inflatable<br />

obstacles and tyre runs. It ran<br />

through the forest and followed<br />

the estuary, finishing in the<br />

South New Brighton Domain.<br />

Said event co-ordinator, Isaac<br />

Sutherland: “It has been so exciting<br />

to see the number of schools<br />

getting involved with this event.<br />

We have schools that have been<br />

with us from the beginning,<br />

schools who send the entire roll,<br />

and new schools who have come<br />

on board to sample what the<br />

event has to offer.”<br />

Said Cathedral Grammar<br />

School teacher Kirsty Bond: “The<br />

kids love getting out and getting<br />

wet and muddy. The smiles on<br />

their faces speak for themselves.”<br />

Bus hub feedback sought<br />

•From page 1<br />

This option will mean buses<br />

will no longer stop across driveways<br />

but it will stop vehicles<br />

travelling between Norwich St<br />

and Buckleys Rd.<br />

Mr Tomlinson supports the<br />

first option and said it could also<br />

reduce vandalism of the bus stops<br />

because the area they would be<br />

moved to is not hit with damage<br />

and graffiti as often.<br />

He said grouping the bus stops<br />

together could mean if they are<br />

vandalised, the area to clean up<br />

would be much smaller.<br />

Said city council transport<br />

planning and delivery<br />

manager Lynette Ellis: “With<br />

the cul-de-sac option there<br />

is space for some form of<br />

seating, trees, a grass bank, a<br />

drinking fountain and a paved<br />

play area.”<br />

The second option is to retain<br />

a left turn from Norwich St onto<br />

Buckleys Rd. This option would<br />

split the bus stops but enable<br />

limited access to be retained<br />

between Norwich St and Buckleys<br />

Rd.<br />

“With the left-turn option<br />

there is space for some planting<br />

and a seat or a drinking fountain,’’<br />

said Ms Ellis.<br />

“We want to build better bus<br />

shelters so waiting passengers<br />

weather and we want to install<br />

a signalised pedestrian crossing<br />

so that people can get across the<br />

road more easily.<br />

“We also want to move the bus<br />

stops to the end of Norwich St so<br />

we reduce the likelihood of people’s<br />

driveways being blocked,’’<br />

she said.<br />

Healthy trees<br />

face chop<br />

for drainworks<br />

• By Claire Booker<br />

A DRAIN which has not been<br />

maintained since the 1960s will<br />

be renewed next year.<br />

But it will mean about 100<br />

healthy trees and shelterbelts will<br />

get the chop.<br />

The Papanui-Innes Community<br />

Board voted on Friday to approve<br />

the removal of the trees along the<br />

Canal Reserve Drain on Marshland<br />

Rd between Mairehau and<br />

Hawkins Rds.<br />

City councillor and board<br />

member Pauline Cotter said<br />

council staff worked closely with<br />

the community regarding the tree<br />

removal.<br />

Said Cr Cotter: “Nobody wants<br />

to cut down healthy trees unless<br />

we have to. It’s for the greater<br />

benefit.”<br />

About 600m south of the<br />

Hawkins Styx river intersection is<br />

a spawning habitat for Lamprey, a<br />

type of jawless fish similar to eels.<br />

The drain is to be renewed to<br />

reduce the potential flood risk and<br />

associated damage with the road.<br />

Work is set to begin early next<br />

year and run until 2021.<br />

Once the renewal is complete,<br />

the waterway will be landscaped<br />

with riparian planting, including<br />

native shrubs and larger growing<br />

native and exotic trees where<br />

space allows.<br />

Second book from New Brighton<br />

WELL-KNOWN New Brighton<br />

surfing identity Warren Hawke<br />

has penned a new book on the<br />

history of the sport.<br />

NZ SURF: The Collection Vol 2<br />

is another masterful publication<br />

of photos and stories.<br />

The book is a celebration of<br />

New Zealand surfing with more<br />

than 400 photos and 60,000<br />

words.<br />

It also features New Brighton<br />

surfers Ron Carter and the late<br />

Chris Allan.<br />

The book follows up from<br />

Hawke’s Volume One which was<br />

published in 2017 and has since<br />

sold out.<br />

The new book includes surfing<br />

history, surfer profiles, environmental<br />

articles and a selection of<br />

surfing highlights.<br />

Of note is the Coming Through<br />

chapter which contains a feature<br />

for teenagers based on skills for<br />

surfing and skills for living and<br />

growing through their teenage<br />

years.<br />

It also features a full-page<br />

photo of New Brighton resident<br />

Hugh Ritchie which is taken<br />

from the water during the earthquake<br />

repairs to the pier.<br />

It is this photo which opens the<br />

Log Burner or longboard section<br />

of the book which includes a<br />

piece about 70-year-old Carter<br />

and Allan.<br />

Both Carter and Allan had a<br />

positive impact on Hawke when<br />

he was a surfing Gremmie back<br />

in 1966.<br />

Hawke has drawn upon over<br />

50 years of surfing experience<br />

and involvement in researching<br />

and assembling this volume.<br />

His connection includes surfing<br />

successfully at a competitive<br />

level, organisation and management<br />

of major surfing competitions<br />

and festivals and the position<br />

of chief judge at the New<br />

Zealand Surfing Championships.<br />

Over the past 40 years, Hawke<br />

has been a freelance writer and<br />

photographer for surfing magazines<br />

around the world. He also<br />

included material from other<br />

PEGASUS POST<br />

The<br />

Mairehau<br />

Challenge<br />

Achievement<br />

Way<br />

Responsibility<br />

Empathy<br />

From the Principals Desk<br />

Our Mission statement: “For all students to value<br />

themselves and others, to know they can excel and to<br />

reach their full potential.” The founders and architects of<br />

our school sculptured these words to form the underlying<br />

principles of Mairehau High School. There are three<br />

elements of this vision statement, self and mutual respect,<br />

learning how to achieve, and doing your very best.<br />

I wish to provide a reflection: “What’s happened in <strong>2019</strong>”<br />

Term One: 15th March - Christchurch Muslim Attack<br />

We woke up to the dawn of a new school day, a different New Zealand, a stronger nation. Our<br />

students and staff returned to school after the tragic events of 15th March. We learned about the<br />

attacks on our Muslim community. Our staff had a special briefing outlining our support for students,<br />

staff and community.<br />

Our school focussed on compassion, respect and the acknowledgement of people: students, staff,<br />

parents, NZ Police, Ministry of Education, Ambulance and Medical service, and all who have helped<br />

over those days.<br />

On that day the odious apparatus of fear raised its ugly head.<br />

The tragic Muslim attack will not deter us as a school, community or nation. We all have a<br />

responsibility to model the values of compassion, respect and aroha for our fellow New Zealander. We<br />

cannot let trepidation rule our communities. As a nation, we have grown stronger and better. We are<br />

known as a country for our Aroha and Manakitanga. I am proud to be the Principal of a Christchurch<br />

School working with caring, compassionate, and respectful students, staff and community.<br />

Term Two: Enrolment Zone<br />

The Board of Mairehau High School recently adopted an enrolment scheme that has been approved<br />

by the Secretary for Education. Under this scheme, students will be enrolled if they live within our<br />

home zone.<br />

There has been a collective desire to create a sustainable school network that will have a significant<br />

positive impact on the learning communities of Christchurch. Mairehau High School remains<br />

committed to ensuring that our approach to zoning change will meet the needs of schools in<br />

our community, while also supporting the effectiveness of improving a more sustainable school<br />

education network. Our new zone will take effect from 1 January 2020.<br />

Term Three: Property Design Rebuild<br />

Our school roll is expected to grow to 500 pupils, and the master plan will allow for a roll build of up<br />

to 800. The new rebuild design is in its very early stages; it offers an opportunity to provide new 21stcentury<br />

Hard Materials, Hospitality, Visual Arts and Supported Learning facility. (money permitting, the<br />

Board is also considering an upgrade to the gymnasium)<br />

Each phase of the plan is aligned to the greater Christchurch Network of Schools and the Ministry of<br />

Education prediction of roll growth. We are very excited about our master plan and future building<br />

project. We will continue to develop positive outcomes and learning experiences for our students.<br />

Encouraging<br />

excellence<br />

in our<br />

community<br />

We are still taking<br />

enrolments for 2020.<br />

Please call the office<br />

for a prospectus<br />

or download an<br />

enrolment form at<br />

www.mairehau.school.nz<br />

Term Four: Education Review Office<br />

The school’s commitment to providing<br />

effective strategic leadership and 21stcentury<br />

vision and facilities is evident in<br />

Mairehau High School’s Charter.<br />

Earlier this term, our school was reviewed by the Education<br />

Review Office (ERO). This is an external government agency charged<br />

with the responsibility of determining the quality of teaching, the<br />

strength and quality of internal review, and improvement processes<br />

in the school.<br />

Mairehau High School provides genuine opportunities for its<br />

students to excel academically, in leadership, in community service,<br />

in a sporting activity or in the arts. The school has a caring and<br />

nurturing environment with outstanding staff.<br />

Harry Romana, Principal<br />

Leaders and teachers have a clear and shared focus on knowing the learner. Teachers use a wide<br />

range of information about students’ achievement, progress and wellbeing to:<br />

- Identify students’ learning needs and track and monitor their progress<br />

- Provide extra support for students who need more assistance<br />

-Share information that promotes increased understanding of, and useful responses to, students’<br />

learning and wellbeing needs<br />

- Support improved attendance, retention and engagement in learning<br />

Our GaTE coordinator Angela Marshall has provided significant progress with the school’s wellconsidered<br />

Gifted and Talented education programme. Our Careers team, led by Margaret Robertson,<br />

provides pathways for students to vocational and tertiary opportunities.<br />

A wide range of abilities is identified and fostered in GaTE planning and approaches. Identified<br />

students have ongoing opportunities to explore and extend their learning within their area of special<br />

ability.<br />

Conclusion:<br />

I would like to publically acknowledge my Board Chair, Mr Chris Caselton who was appointed this<br />

year, and all Board members for your continued support.<br />

I now wish to acknowledge some of the people that have supported our students’ journey through<br />

Mairehau High School, the Mairehau High School staff. We are fortunate to have an abundance of<br />

dedicated and conscientious staff who contribute to the education and well-being of our students.<br />

Thank you.<br />

I also take this opportunity to acknowledge members of my senior leadership team: Rebecca<br />

Swanson and Siobhan Murphy, for supporting me, and providing leadership, when it really mattered.<br />

I genuinely value your personal and professional commitment to me this year. We have had our good<br />

times, shared our challenging times, and we have had a lot of fun along the way.<br />

This is who we are... students and staff<br />

focusing on our C.A.R.E values<br />

Senior Awards <strong>2019</strong><br />

Fight for equality<br />

The Avon Shirley Masonic Lodge Good Citizenship Award:<br />

The Lodge annually presents this award to two senior students<br />

who, on the recommendations of staff, best exemplify the<br />

qualities of good citizenship. These qualities include tolerance,<br />

kindness, and tact in relating to others. Good citizenship is<br />

reflected in a desire to help others, to put others first, and to serve<br />

others selflessly without expecting reward.<br />

In the spirit of this award the two students nominated an<br />

organization which received a significant donation on their<br />

behalf. The generous gift of $500 from The Lodge will go to the<br />

organization “I AM HOPE” – a New Zealand charity focused on<br />

supporting youth and communities by promoting societal and<br />

attitudinal change towards mental health and wellbeing.<br />

It gives us great pleasure to announce our two winners:<br />

Darrell Suaesi Faamau<br />

Joshua Schuurman<br />

We would like to thank The Avon Shirley Masonic Lodge for their<br />

continued supported of this prestigious gift and award.<br />

Sportsperson of the Year Award:<br />

The winner of the award is a multi-talented athlete with sporting<br />

passion who participates in a range of sporting codes at a high<br />

level – including football, swimming and basketball.<br />

In swimming, he is a member of the Special Olympics Canterbury<br />

squad and has consistently impressed with his ability to reach the<br />

podium.<br />

In football, he is a member of the Sunshine Football Club<br />

(representing Canterbury) and participated in a Special Olympics<br />

Tier 1 tournament. This division 1 team finished second in the<br />

competition while in the school’s football tournament, his team<br />

was also placed 2nd.<br />

In basketball, this proficient sportsperson<br />

trained hard with the Supported Learning<br />

Centre school team and was a key player<br />

during the latest tournament as the team<br />

went through, winning game after game<br />

to eventually win the 2nd division.<br />

We are very pleased to award Jeffrey<br />

Taylor as our Sports Person of the Year.<br />

Prime Ministers Vocational Excellence Award:<br />

This award is aimed at raising the status of the vocational study<br />

and recognizing the achievements of students excelling in<br />

vocational education. The award also aims to inspire students to<br />

plan more carefully how their subject choices lead on to careers<br />

that suit their skills and abilities.<br />

In its inaugural year, the school has<br />

nominated an exceptional young<br />

man who has always had a clear<br />

pathway for his future and his passion<br />

for the outdoors has been developed<br />

at school. He will make an amazing<br />

outdoor education instructor.<br />

We would like to congratulate Joshua<br />

Schuurman as winner of this award<br />

and wish him all the best as he starts<br />

the new year as an intern at The Boyle<br />

River Outdoor Education Centre.<br />

Runner-up to the <strong>2019</strong> Mairehau Scholar:<br />

ability, her conceptual understanding, her problem solving<br />

capability and her reporting skills. She is a person who will utilize<br />

opportunities offered by new knowledge and technologies to<br />

ensure a sustainable social, economic, cultural and environmental<br />

future for all.<br />

We are all proud of Caitlyn’s<br />

contribution to our school and her<br />

accomplishments, and we wish her<br />

well in her tertiary studies at ARA<br />

next year.<br />

Our Premier Award - <strong>2019</strong> Mairehau Scholar:<br />

Jesse Jeffries – an exceptional student, and a person who has<br />

impressed us with his quiet, focused purpose, and his natural,<br />

perceptive intelligence. He has demonstrated his all-round effort<br />

this year with his considerable commitment. Jesse works hard<br />

and complements this with determination and exceptional selfdiscipline.<br />

Year 9 student Imogen Caselton<br />

was selected as a Consumer<br />

Hero by Fair Go for her fight for<br />

equality regarding rugby team<br />

merchandise. Imogen believes<br />

there should be greater<br />

availability of team jerseys<br />

and other kits for Black Ferns<br />

supporters.<br />

Fair Go is helping her in her<br />

mission, and she was recently filmed at school explaining the<br />

issue to the Principal and her classmates.<br />

It is fantastic for a young Year 9 student of Mairehau High School<br />

to stand up for her right to acknowledge and wear merchandise<br />

worn by her female role models.<br />

Imogen also won prizes for her school, including a printer and a<br />

camera. Good on you, Imogen!<br />

Shops bursting with<br />

festive gift ideas<br />

The countdown to the big day is well underway, so making up the<br />

Christmas gift list will now be a top priority… if you haven’t already done so.<br />

Finding those special gifts and stocking fillers as<br />

well as the Christmas treats for the table is so easy at<br />

our city’s malls and shopping centres, where the shops<br />

are bursting with festive merchandise.<br />

Every woman likes to receive body pampering<br />

gifts, and there is a huge selection of these priced<br />

to suit all budgets at the many pharmacies and gift<br />

shops around the city. Perfume is another favourite<br />

and again there is a wide selection to choose from,<br />

ranging from exciting new releases to the well-known<br />

fragrances that have stood the test of time. Lingerie,<br />

jewellery, fashion accessories, homewares and decor<br />

items – there’s no end to the ideas for the women on<br />

the list.<br />

The men are equally well catered for, from the<br />

sophisticated metro-male boyfriends, to the car-crazy<br />

brothers and the DIY enthusiast and keen gardener<br />

husbands and dads. Choose from clothing, books,<br />

tools, personal grooming items and gadgets to put a<br />

smile on their face on Christmas morning.<br />

Speaking of smiles, nothing gives families more joy<br />

than seeing the excitement of the children opening<br />

their presents. Whether they are delivered by Santa<br />

or snuck under the tree by mum and dad, the cuddly<br />

toys, games, dolls and building blocks, the candy<br />

canes, toy trucks and pretty dresses currently filling<br />

the shops will bring squeals of sheer happiness from<br />

the smallest family members.<br />

The tweens and teens usually have their own ideas<br />

about what they want for Christmas, so the gift cards<br />

offered by a wide range of retailers are the perfect way<br />

to please.<br />

We are very proud of what we have achieved,<br />

something that hasn’t been seen in small<br />

animal practice before - completely separate<br />

cat and dog reception, consulting, surgical<br />

and ICU treatment areas.<br />

This new edition has been seven years in<br />

the making - a lot of time and energy has<br />

been dedicated to this project as well as<br />

decisions to be made on a daily basis. We<br />

bought the old house next to the clinic in<br />

2012 anticipating we would expand one day.<br />

It was so exciting to finally see foundations<br />

being laid.<br />

grow it, but we have. We now we have a<br />

staff of 27, a team of eight veterinarians with<br />

different skill sets and interests - something<br />

we are very proud of and have tried hard to<br />

achieve. We want our clients to have all their<br />

needs met, and those of their precious pets,<br />

all under one roof.<br />

Old house converted to new extension.<br />

Demolition time.<br />

To go back 20 years ….. In 1999 we took over<br />

the reins of Rozens Vet Clinic ( which was an<br />

old house situated in our carpark). We have<br />

very fond memories of our early days there<br />

and we were a small yet enthusiastic staff<br />

of six back then. Our small garage doubled<br />

as a cattery, our carpark was flooded most<br />

of winter and inhabited by Mallards, X-rays<br />

were manually developed in the toilet and<br />

often we were so busy cages were stacked<br />

on top of each other in the surgical area.<br />

Our young sons, Connor and Dylan, often<br />

watched their mum and dad perform<br />

surgeries, cuddling and playing with kittens<br />

in the small staffroom. They were good times<br />

and we got to know some terrific, animal<br />

mad clients, who are still with us 20 years on.<br />

The Practice we work out of now was built<br />

in 2008 and never thought we would out<br />

Smartflow patient monitoring.<br />

Cat ICU and treatment area.<br />

Aside from the separate cat wing, our new<br />

280 square metre addition will feature<br />

space for rehabilitation and physiotherapy,<br />

a state off the art theatre and surgical wing<br />

for referral surgeries, a double dental room,<br />

another feline ward, large ultrasonography<br />

room and extra kennelling for about 20 dogs<br />

plus storage galore.<br />

We are very proud to now be able to offer<br />

Referral Surgery at McMaster & Heap Vets. Dr<br />

Helen Milner has now joined the team who<br />

is an Australian and New Zealand Registered<br />

Specialist in Small Animal Surgery. She will<br />

be able to offer a wide array of soft tissue,<br />

orthopaedic and neurological surgeries.<br />

ORIJEN and ACANA<br />

are proud to support<br />

McMaster & Heap with<br />

their hospital and NEW cat<br />

only treatment extension.<br />

The ORIJEN and ACANA<br />

Dog and Cat food range<br />

are available in the<br />

clinic.<br />

McMaster & Heap<br />

Veterinary practice<br />

We are also very fortunate to have the<br />

services of Dr Richard Lucy who does<br />

all the Echocardiography, Endoscopy<br />

and Abdominal and Musculoskeletal<br />

Ultrasonography in the Practice. Richard<br />

has also put pacemakers in dogs, performs<br />

our spinal taps and can also interpret MRI’s<br />

and CT scans. He’s consulted a lot by us all.<br />

Richard and Helens ethics, empathy, genuine<br />

love of all animals, professional style and<br />

incredibly high skill level fits with our aim of<br />

becoming a “Centre of Excellence”.<br />

Our other vets are also skilled up in areas<br />

of interest and passion to them - Steve<br />

with Ophthalmology, Dentistry and<br />

Reconstructive Surgery, Sara enjoying<br />

Dermatology and Exotics, Olivia a whiz at<br />

all tricky Dentistry, Kirsty is very competent<br />

in Soft Tissue Surgery, Chemotherapy and<br />

Transfusion Medicine and Catherine is a<br />

fantastic Medicine and Intensive Care expert<br />

as well as performing Ultrasounds whenever<br />

Richard is away. Me, I’m a jack of all trades,<br />

doing a little of everything but my passion<br />

lies with consulting and meeting new pets<br />

and people, radiography and surgery.<br />

Michele and steve in the cattery.<br />

In the past 20 years we have learnt heaps<br />

about running a successful business and<br />

working together as a team. One of our goals<br />

is to lead by example and empower our staff<br />

to be their best, enjoy what they are good<br />

at and love coming to work for us every day.<br />

The right people, with the right set of skills<br />

and attitude, are the key to our success.<br />

The NZL Veterinary industry is rapidly<br />

changing with many Practices being bought<br />

by Corporate Entities and amalgamating with<br />

practices. The need to keep up, diversify,<br />

provide flexibility and options for people<br />

and find your niche area is our future aim.<br />

We will never stand still and be complacent.<br />

We will listen to our clients and staff and see<br />

what they want from us going forward in the<br />

future.<br />

Cat clinic entrance.<br />

Theatre preparation & surgical scrub area.<br />

We have also moved fast with regards to<br />

technology. I’m not really a starter for change<br />

but Steve persisted and eventually had me<br />

sold on our new veterinary software system,<br />

EzyVet and our new patient monitoring and<br />

billing system, Smartflow. We are virtually<br />

paperless and you’ll see our nurses walking<br />

around with iPads updating flowsheets and<br />

monitoring anaesthetics. Now I couldn’t<br />

go back. This system is so accurate, very<br />

professional and way more efficient.<br />

I hope McMaster & Heap will stand the test<br />

of time, cementing itself in Christchurch, as a<br />

hospital who pride themselves on excellence,<br />

expertise, quality patient care and full<br />

commitment to our people and their pets.<br />

We would love to see you on Saturday<br />

30th <strong>November</strong> between 12-3pm for a look<br />

around at where your special furries stay<br />

when they are with us and enjoy a coffee,<br />

sausage sizzle and get advice or just enjoy<br />

a chat from our super staff and industry<br />

representatives who will be present on the<br />

day also. There will also be cat and dog<br />

goodie bags, raffles and discount vouchers<br />

on some foods.<br />

Hope to see you real soon.<br />

steve, Michele and Lola<br />
