70 years of friendship

FRIENDSHIP: A group of friends who met at Avonside Girls’ High School in 1950 have come together to meet every year since.

AS THE saying goes, it takes
a long time to grow an old
friend.
And for this group of ladies,
it’s been a long time – close to
70 years in fact.
As 14-year-olds, the group
of women met when they were
placed in the same class at
Avonside Girls’ High School in
1950 and have reunited every
year since.
For three, Rosemary Harper,
Valerie Percy and Eleanor
Gillespie, all now in their 80s,
their friendship dates back to
when they were five-years-old,
after meeting at Opawa School
in 1941. • Turn to page 4
A CAUSE of a mysterious smell
- likened to rotting fish or dead
animals - in Christchurch’s
eastern suburbs could be
pinpointed soon.
Residents have been
complaining about the stench
for years, but so far the cause of
the smell in Bromley, Linwood
and Woolston remains elusive,
with authorities saying it could be
a range of things such as industrial
sites or the Avon Heathcote Estuary.
But pinpointing the source could
be on the way, with Environment
Canterbury trialling apps for
residents to report the smell as soon
as they catch a whiff.
Woolston resident Karyn Fallon
said the smell had been around
for as long as she could remember.
“It’s almost like a sulphur sort
of smell. It’s very dependent on
the wind. I’m not very good with
directions but whichever way it
needs to blow, if it’s blowing this
way we do get it really strongly,”
she said.
Fallon has lived in the city’s
eastern suburbs for 23 years and
said she had always thought it was
the city’s oxidation ponds - but
now she’s not so sure.

Art, landscape, seascape and birds
have always filled Janie’s life. She
painted and drew from when she was
old enough to hold a pencil or brush.
As a child she would watch the trees
and sky through the schoolroom
window when she should have been
listening to the teacher. The rolling
hills and countryside coloured her
childhood in England, where she often
spent time rescuing and nurturing
birds that had fallen out of nests or
had broken wings. Aged eight she saw
Cornwall for the first time – the cliffs,
the sea, the wheeling gulls took her
breath away.
Janie attended art school extramurally

When she came with him to his
home she fell in love again, this time
with the taonga of New Zealand, the
ocean, the native birds, the mountains
and the wilderness.
About twenty years ago her friend
Galina Kim who was an art mentor to
Janie encouraged her to start using a
palette knife. She never looked back.
Janie studied at the University of Fine
Arts in Vietnam in 2005 and there she
fused her use of palette knife and love
of NZ landscape with layers and layers
of pigment and lacquer.

Resident fed up with street repairs
• By Matt Slaughter
CRYSTAL TANNER is sick
of waiting for the kerbs and
cycleway on Sheldon St,
Woolston, to be constructed to
the right standard.
These parts of the street were
ripped up and concreted once in
2018 but the job was not carried
out to the correct standard, so
now this work is taking place
again.
Mrs Tanner said the repairs
were originally supposed to take
three months but instead took
nine.
Higgins Contractors Ltd was
employed by the city council to
complete this job. Due to the
quality of concrete it used being
below the required strength
standard on its first attempt, it
is managing and paying for this
work to be re-done with stronger
concrete.
Said city council head of
transport Richard Osborne:
“The concrete on a large portion
of Sheldon St did not meet
the strength requirement. As
a result a strip of the roadway
approximately 500mm wide adjacent
to the kerbs has been dug
up as part of the repair works.
This is to allow working space for
the kerbing machine to construct
new replacement kerb. During

of the length of time it has
taken to get the job right and the
inconvenience this has caused.
“It’s been going on for two

She said the work being

cycleway, which runs
along it is difficult to use and a
footpath on one side of the street
is not flat and can not be used by
people in wheelchairs.
Mrs Tanner also said she
did not receive a letter saying a
second attempt is being made at
the repairs.
But, Mr Osborne said letters
were distributed to residents on
January 13 and road signs were also
installed with details on the work.
As well as this, she is concerned
about the planter boxes,
which have been installed along
the street taking up spaces where
cars used to be able to park.
Said Mrs Tanner: “The overall
inconvenience is that you’ve got
the noise, you’ve got the dust and
you’ve got the people [workers] out
there, so you don’t feel like you can
use the front of your street, you
don’t feel like you can go out there.
“It’s the lack of accessibility, it’s
the lack of safety for others,” she
said.

The hunt for
elusive smell
• From page 1
“We had some breaks in
meeting to be young wives and
mothers. We are all either 83 or
84 now, but were only 14 when
these special friendships were
made. We meet each two to three
months and stay in touch. We
are still the same women,” Mrs
Gillespie said.
Mostly the group meet at each
others homes for afternoon tea
and each bring a plate of food to
share.
This way they can laugh and
make as much noise as they like,
Mrs Gillespie said.
Three of the group have
passed away, including most
recently, Fay Rabone-Powell, in
December.
“It was a month to the day
that we met (this month). She
badly wanted to come too, she
knew all about it. But she had
been in and out of hospital,
sick. We use to go to Fay’s quite
a bit, she had a big home,” Mrs
Gillespie said.
The group were in a small class
of 21 at Avonside, where most
had 30 pupils, something they
believe may have contributed to
their close friendships.
“I don’t know what the secret
is; it is very special, especially for
the women who are widowed.

Between them, they have 26

10 great-grandchildren, with
another on the way.
“We have been quite

“It’s always been bad but
probably but more so since the
earthquakes and it has made me
wonder over time whether it is
actually the Bromley ponds or
whether there is another cause
for it,” she said.
ECan started a specific
programme to look at odours
about 12 months ago in efforts to
solve the mystery.
Its senior manager for service
delivery Nick Daniels said there
had been more than 300 odour
related complaints within those
12 months.
“They’re quite literally a
number of causes out there
... food processing industries,
composting industry, there’s also
a wastewater treatment plant and
transfer station,” Daniels said.
“So there are a number of
potentially odour and emitting
sources out in Bromley that we
need to try and get on top of.”
Daniels said work done with
Canterbury District Health
Board had shown there was no
health risk associated with the
odours, and he hoped smart
phone apps could be used as a
tool to help find the culprits.
Business can also be penalised
for releasing unpleasant odours.
ECan will host feedback sessions
on the apps next month and report
back to the local community
board in mid to late March.

New shoe shop offers even more
‘fashionable, functional footwear’
Newly opened, the Shoe Room in Riccarton Road,
just across from the Bush Inn Centre, offers an
extensive range of specialised footwear for people
that have foot problems, difficulty finding shoes or are
simply looking for stylish, comfortable shoes.
This bright, modern and attractively laid out store is
owned by podiatrist Charlotte Russell, who also owns
and operates the podiatry clinic Feet First in Upper
Riccarton. The Shoe Room was previously part of the
clinic, but increasing demand for “fashionable, functional
footwear” meant they needed to expand, Charlotte says.
As a stand-alone store with much more space, the
Shoe Room is able to offer an extended range of brands
and styles to accommodate feet requiring specific
features, such as wider, deeper or more narrow fitting
and for those who are on their feet all day.
The Shoe Room Shop assistant Wendy, left,
business owner Charlotte Russell, centre,
and shop manager Maxine.
At present, the majority are women’s shoes, but the
men’s range will be expanded with the arrival of the
winter season collection, Charlotte says.
Brands on display include Mephisto from France,
which is exclusive to the Shoe Room in New Zealand,
Australian brands Frankie 4, Revere and Propet, and
Taos from the United States.
The shop has been thoughtfully designed with seating
and large mirrors to the side of the display areas, so
customers have plenty of space to try shoes on and
walk around in them. Shop manager Maxine and shop
assistant Wendy both have extensive experience in
footwear, so can assist and advise customers on the
best fit and style to suit their needs.
“This is a point of difference for the Shoe Room –
having people who know about shoe fitting to help our
customers,” Charlotte says. “We will also be having a

For customer convenience there is an off-street

The Shoe Room is located at Unit 3, 355 Riccarton Road, opposite the Lone Star.

‘Heartbreak’ after items stolen from graves
• By Sophie Cornish
AN UPSET mother has resorted
to permanently attaching
treasures to her children’s graves
after several items were stolen –
including three sacred pounamu.
Gwyneth Beard has lost two
children, son Elwyn in 1991 and
her daughter Talla Pakeha in
2011.
Elwyn was eight-months-old
when he died of cot death and
Talla was 25 when she died from
a severe asthma attack.
Both are buried at Ruru Lawn
Cemetery in Bromley.
Talla’s twin boys, Tane and
Aka, were six-years-old and
Ngatanahira, was four-years-old
when she died.
She was also seven months
pregnant and the unborn baby
did not survive.
With Talla’s birthday approaching,
Gwyneth, along with
her grandsons, Tane and Aka,
who are now 14, spent time tidying
up her grave.
Returning the next day,
Gwyneth noticed a plaque, string
of solar lights and pounamu
necklace had been stolen.
“We have cemented down
most of the pounamu. The other
one, we never got around to doing
it,” she said.
It’s not the first time she has
felt “heartbroken” by thieves.
About three years ago, two
pounamu were stolen from
Elwyn’s grave.
One of the items was found for
sale on Facebook, with the offender
admitting to police it had
been sold for $300.
The other pounamu was never
recovered and the offender was
never charged, making Gwyneth
reluctant to report the most
recent thefts.
“We were just given the stuff
back and never heard anything
more about it. I just didn’t want

to deal with that again.
Gwyneth’s aunt also had four
steel roses valued at $10 each
stolen soon after she placed them
on her husband’s grave at the
same cemetery.
“That really broke my heart
because she probably used her
pension to get those,” she said.
Talla and her sons were subjected
to family violence when
she was alive.
Her sons have now become
advocates against domestic
violence, sharing their story
through singing and speeches at
community events and the Ministry
of Justice summit last year.
“It’s really heartbreaking, she
has already been violated and now
she should be resting in peace and
then they come and do that and
then that violates her too.
“Being Maori I just don’t
understand, it’s so wrong to take
things from the cemetery, let
alone pounamu,” Gwyneth said.
She hopes the city council will
consider installing security cameras
in all parts of the cemetery.
The city council acting unit
manager for parks, Al Hardy,
said family and friends are responsible
for items on graves.
“Council would ordinarily
only remove broken or neglected
items or materials that represented
a health or safety issue.”
Mr Hardy would encourage
reporting the thefts to the city
council’s contact centre and said
over the past year, five have been
reported.
“There have been no steps
taken for theft of items from
grave sites. For added security
following the March 15 tragedy,
the Memorial Cemetery has
camera surveillance.”
Mr Hardy said extra security
measures would be considered
on a case-by-case basis.

TAKING UP judo five years ago
has changed the course of life

High School student
Lorcan Fivet.
He has the Olympics
to work towards, he
has changed his studies
to a sports-related
qualification and he
has gained more
personal confidence
than he thought was
possible.
Fivet, a Strowan
resident, trains twice a day,
and balances his passion for
judo with his bachelor of sport
coaching majoring in sports science
studies at the Canterbury
University and has a job at UC’s
Recreation Centre.
The training has paid off,

men’s category in 2017 and

BROTHERS ZACH and Seb
May were able to turn heads at
the North Island age-group golf
championships.
Zach, 17, finished runner-up
in the under-19 field at the
Hamilton Golf Club, while
Seb, 14, managed third in the
under-16 category. The duo live
in Fendalton.
Zach said the result was reward
for the work he had done on his
game after a challenging 2019.
He was the co-leader heading
into the final round but could
not hold-off Miramar’s Sam
Masters in the final round.
Zach finished at +3, two shots
behind Sam.
“I was pleased with the week I
had, last year was tough for me,
the first six months was a struggle
with the way I was playing
and I worked really hard at it so
it’s nice to see the results coming
from that,” he said.
“My driving off the tee was my
issue, it became a mental thing
for me, I could go out onto the
driving range and hit quality
drives time-after-time but then
I’d play a round and it would all
fall apart – I’d get the yips really.
“The positive thing is that my
short game has got better because
I’ve become used to playing
in positions on the course
that are tricky,” he said.
Seb was the outright leader
heading into the final round of
the under-16 tournament before
a 77 saw him finish at +7, eight
shots behind the winner, Ryan
Rooney from Fielding.
“I thought it was a pretty good
week against some tough golfers,”
he said.

2018, a world ranking of 13 in
June last year, and a first senior
men national title in 2019.
The 20-year-old travelled
to Brazil recently
for an intensive training
opportunity.
The training will take
place for three months
before he competes in
Argentina, Peru and
Chile, as part of a
dream to compete at the
2022 Commonwealth
Games.
Fivet has his sights set on the
2024 Olympics and that means
full-time training for the next
four years.
“I want to take it as far as possible,”
he said.
He has been passionate about
judo since he first tried it five
years ago.
“I tried it and loved it. After
the first year I was competing
and training 12 times a week.
I went through the grades to
black belt.”
He teaches the three to 10
year-old class at his club, Premier
Equipe Judo, and “would
definitely recommend judo,
especially for young kids.”
Along with fitness, coordination,
discipline and
coaching skills, judo has given
Fivet another important
life lesson.
“I used to be extremely introverted;
I hated any kind
of social interaction. My first
two or three years of judo I
would stay at the back, in the
shadows, and avoid attention.
Ever since I started judo, my
parents and coach said the
same thing, that it takes you out
of your shell and gives you so
much confidence.”

final day of competition at the
Youth Winter Olympic Games
at Lausanne, Switzerland, last
week.
Competing in a mixed
nation team, De Rose, who
finished year 13 at Shirley Boys’
High School last year, looked
confident throughout the
knock-out rounds, as his team
advanced to the bronze medal
final in the mixed team relay.
He said the result exceeded his
own expectations.
“We all skated really well today
and we’re so happy to come
away with a bronze medal. This
was a huge highlight, I definitely
didn’t think I’d end up with a
medal so I’m super stoked.”
De Rose combined with Italian
Thomas Nadalini, Korean
Min Seo and Great Britain’s
Olivia Weedon for the medal.
Earlier in the event the
17-year-old placed seventh in the
1000m individual event and 10th
in the individual 500m.
De Rose began speed skating
at four-years-old, after his mother
saw an advert in a newsletter.
Since then de Rose has been
obsessed, thinking of little else
ACHIEVEMENT: Ethan De
Rose made the most of his
time on the international
stage.
outside of skating.
“I just had a thing for it ever
since I started and was constantly
wanting to go back,” he
said when he made the Olympic
team back in November.
“At the start it was more casual
until I was about eight then I
started competing in Australia
and that made me want to progress
and be competitive.
“It’s so tense and so strategic
and you’ve just got to give it
everything you’ve got, I love it.”

Aikido beginners
Interested in aikido? “Then follow
the Nike approach and “just do it””
is the advice instructor Andrew
Williamson repeats to beginners.
“Every new student is naturally
apprehensive about beginning a
Japanese martial art aikido, we have
all ‘been there‘.”
At Aikido Shinryukan Canterbury
we take care to ease beginners into
training through basics classes.
With that first step onto the mat, we
focus on beginners understanding
the fundamentals of aikido so that
they can take the next step and
begin a life long study of the art.
“We want students to develop
technically and physically as quickly
as possible”, notes Williamson. “We
can then introduce them to more
advanced training and international
instructors and build the total
knowledge base of our group.”
Aikido Shinryukan Canterbury
has dojos in Burnside and Linwood
and provides daily classes for adults
and children. Beginners are very
welcome.

musical, contemporary and acro/tumble
all offered to extend their dance skills.
Established in Christchurch over 20
PEGASUS POST
years ago, the Patricia Paul School of

in France, ex-RNZB dancer Marysa
Dalton, Sacha Copeland, a contemporary
dancer and choreographer with her own
dance company Java, and guest teacher

christchurch School of Music
Christchurch School of Music (CSM)
has offered high quality music tuition and
ensembles to Cantabrians for 65 years,
with many of its alumni now performing
in orchestras, bands and choirs across New
Zealand and the world.
“From an engaging preschool
programme to high quality adult tuition
and everything in between, CSM caters
to everyone aged from 2 to 92, whatever
their level of playing or singing” says Music
Director Celia Stewart.
It offers tuition in all orchestral
instruments, recorder, ukulele, guitar,
piano and voice, and musicianship classes.
A wide range of ensembles includes
orchestras at every level; two choirs; wind,
guitar and recorder ensembles; chamber
music; jazz combo; concert band; big band;
and rock bands.
CSM’s outreach programme takes tutors
into schools to offer strings, band, ukulele,
recorder and percussion tuition.
“The school is a place where all the
family can learn and enjoy being part of
an ensemble at their level,” says Celia “It
is always wonderful to see a mother and
daughter playing in the same orchestra.
There is a strong sense of community on
a Saturday with music coming from every
space.”
Saturday and after school tuition will
take place starting in 2020 at Linwood
College on the old Avonside Girls’ High
site on Avonside Drive.
CSM offers a range of performing
opportunities from solo recitals, regular
soirees to its annual Showcase.
“CSM has an important role to play,
regardless of whether students go on to
become professional musicians, or listeners
with a well-grounded knowledge and love
of music,” says Celia, who started at the
then Christchurch School of Instrumental
Music as a six year old and has worked in a
wide range of roles within the School.
The school has always championed the
recorder, a beautiful instrument in its own
right as well as a great starting instrument
so it is offering a very special deal. For
just $52 a year, students receive a quality
instrument, a tutor book and group tuition
with excellent tutors for the full year.

the CSM website csm.org.nz or phone

Gain a second chance at NCEA
NCEA credits after leaving secondary
school, thanks to Vision College. The
Private Training Establishment (PTE) are
spreading awareness to the young people
in the community, making sure they know
that achieving NCEA levels outside of
school is within their reach.
Vision College’s free ‘Ultimate’
programme offers students without NCEA
the opportunity to gain NCEA Level 1
and 2, their driver’s licence, and a range of
skills designed to make them employable.
Students earn their NCEA credits in
a more practical way, through games,
hands-on activities, and by applying their
learning to real life situations. Students
also get to experience tasters of different
career and study paths to help them
decide where they would like to head after
completing ‘Ultimate’.
School leavers can also enrol in
Security, Early Childcare or Business
Administration courses to earn not only
credits towards NCEA Level 3, but also a
career qualification too in just six months.
These courses are all free for anyone aged
between 16 and 19. Upon completion
students can even pathway onto higher
study with Vision College in Web and
Software Development, Early Childhood
Education, and Counselling.
Vision College are enrolling now for
February! For more information on their
courses, call 0800 834 834, txt “VISION”
to 027 557 8839, or visit their website
www.vision.ac.nz.
Each year up to 10,000 young people
in New Zealand leave school with little
or no formal qualifications. Many teens
disengage with school as the teaching
environment simply does not suit their
style of learning. Research shows that
without a qualification they are more likely
to have difficulties entering the workforce,
as most jobs nowadays require NCEA and
a driver’s licence.
Many early school leavers unfortunately
believe that secondary school is the only
way to earn their NCEA qualifications.
This misconception is particularly
concerning for those young people
who don’t necessarily ‘fit’ the schooling
environment, but still want to find
employment or complete certain industry
training courses for which an NCEA
qualification is a pre-requisite.
Every year dozens of young people
are getting a second chance at earning
Now that exams are over,
kickstart your career in 2020!
