Preparation starts to support
those who are self-isolating
• By Matt Slaughter
SPREYDON residents are
preparing to help members of
their community if they are
forced to self-isolate because of
Covid-19.
Spreydon Neighbourhood
Network Facebook group admin
Sonya Hodder got behind the
idea after one of its members
posted asking if residents are
willing to support people who
are self-isolating by dropping off
food and other supplies.
Said Mrs Hodder: “One of the
ladies who is in the group works
for the Red Cross and she’s like
an emergency person, you know,
she goes out with the four-wheeldrive
and that, and she came up
with the idea and so I agreed that
we should use our Facebook page
as an avenue if anybody does
need help.
“I’m not sure how needed that
it will be because most of the supermarkets
are providing online
delivery and things like that but
it’s just hard to know how it’s going
to pan out.
“I just think they [people] just
need to let us know what they
need and we’ll do our best to
help,” she said.
Mrs Hodder said there is no
need to panic but it is important
those who can help do their bit if
the worst happens.
“I just think anything to help
our community, that’s what we
[the Spreydon Neighbourhood
Network] are about, that’s why
we exist.
“We’ve got to look after each
other. I guess it’s going to get

tricky if the supermarkets stop

well. People need to be encouraged

Delay in making mall exit safer
• By Matt Slaughter
CHANGES TO make
Barrington St safer for
motorists, pedestrians and
cyclists will not happen as soon
as originally planned.
Southern View reported in
September work to remove the
right turn from Barrington
shopping centre on to Barrington
St was anticipated to
start early this year.
A recent report to the
Spreydon-Cashmere Community
Board from city council
staff says work will likely start
late this year and be completed
by 2021.
Said city council planning
and delivery transport manager
Lynette Ellis: “Christchurch City
Council and Barrington mall
have been working together to
achieve a plan that meets the
needs of both parties including
the mall tenants, as well as being
aligned to the mall’s resource
consent approval. This has
taken longer than originally
anticipated. The revised plan
will go to the community board
for approval on April 21.
“Following community board
approval the mall needs to apply
for and be granted a change to
their resource consent conditions,
before we can undertake
the works. Once resource consent
approval has been achieved,
we will expedite construction to
complete the project as soon as
possible,” she said.
The board and nearby residents
have been calling for the
right turn out of the mall car
park to be scrapped for about a
decade due to it being dangerous
and this is one of the board’s
proposed priorities for the next
three years.
Spreydon Neighbourhood
Network secretary Sonya Hodder
said it is disappointing to
see the work not running on
schedule because this has happened
before.
“We’re a bit disappointed.
“We’ve been fighting for this
for years, over four years, and it
just keeps being delayed. It was
supposed to happen last year
and it was supposed
to happen by May this
year.”
Said Cashmere Ward
city councillor Tim
Scandrett: “Yes, it is disappointing
that it’s not
happening as soon as
we had hoped but, let’s
be honest, this has been
wanted for as much as a
decade.
“We’ve made it very clear,
we want this to happen as soon
as possible but you know, the
key is that it’s going to happen,

to cut off the

anticipated.

SLOAN ​
we’ve got an agreement with
everybody and it’s great,” he
said.
Barrington manager Jill
Kearns said: “This
project was always going
to be complex as there
is a lot of stakeholders
to consider, including
the community, so we
always knew that any
decisions would need
to be deliberated on at
length. We’re pleased
to advise that plans are
now in their final stages and we
understand that once these are
signed off, a programme on the
scope will be determined and
work will commence.”
In Brief
NO FREEDOM CAMPING
No camping signs have been installed
on Hunter Tce, Cashmere
and Waimea Tce, Beckenham.
These signs are to inform people
that enforcement action can be
taken against anyone camping
overnight. If you wish to report
any breaches of these rules, call
the city council on 941 8999 or
report via its Snap Send Solve
mobile phone app.
STORMWATER UPGRADE
Stormwater pipe repairs near
the Brougham and Selwyn Sts
intersection is scheduled to
start in April. The work will
be carried out over four to five
months across different stages
to reduce impacts on traffic and
access. A section of brick barrel
stormwater pipe, which was
built in 1912 will be replaced
with a new pipe. Work will
also involve replacing and
constructing surrounding
stormwater lateral pipes.
HEATHCOTE DREDGING
The dredging of the lower
Heathcote River to remove invasive
weeds will be continuing
from Aynsley Tce to St Martins
Rd. This will involve sediment
removal, work on riverbanks
and some tree removal. City
council staff are completing
this work.

Community weighs in on priorities
• By Matt Slaughter
THE SPREYDON-Cashmere
Community Board’s emphasis
on improving road safety was its
most popular proposed priority
at a community meeting.
The board held a meeting
at South Library, where about
30 members of the public gave
feedback on the
priorities for
the next three
years, which
are yet to be
finalised.
These are to
promote the
installation of
Cherylan
Davies
traffic lights at
the intersection
of Cashmere,
Hoon Hay and Worsleys Rds,
remove the Barrington Mall
Barrington St entrance/exit
and improve road safety and
travel efficiency on Dyers Pass,
Hackthorne and Cashmere Rds,
particularly at intersections.
Its other priorities are to
upgrade the toilets, changing
rooms and sports storage at
Hoon Hay Park, activate Hoon
Hay Community Centre,
plan for an adult playground
somewhere in the Spreydon-
Cashmere Wards and promote
the progression of the cycle
network through these wards.
Said board chairwoman
Karolin Potter: “What they [the
public] probably discussed most
was traffic safety.”
Concerns people raised
included: “Getting across
Cashmere Rd and Centaurus
Rd, getting across Hoon Hay Rd,
getting across Lyttelton St, traffic
safety for Addington School,
traffic safety for Hoon Hay
School,” she said.
Manager of Addington community
development agency
Manuka Cottage Cherylan
Davies was at the meeting and
told the board she wants it to
prioritise the upgrade of more
toilet facilities than just the ones
at Hoon Hay Park, particularly

those in Addington.
She is happy with the proposed
priorities overall but
told the board at the meeting it
would be good to see it doing
more for Addington.
“I just did a plug for Addington
and [was] just thinking, you
know, it would be good to see
some priorities for Addington
that aren’t necessarily put upon
them [the community board].”
Hoon Hay Community Association
secretary Bernie Pullinger
was also at the meeting
and is pleased people supported
the proposals to revitalise Hoon
Hay Community Centre and improve
Hoon Hay Park’s facilities.
Ms Potter said the least
popular of the board’s proposed
priorities was her own idea for
an adult playground to be built.
The board will use the feedback
received at the meeting
and 28 online responses made
through the city council’s Have
Your Say page during a consultation
period to decide on its
finalised priorities.
The online feedback given
is being considered by elected
members and will be included in
the board’s future agendas when
it adopts its priorities.
Ken Couling responds to
the letters in last week’s
Southern View about the
recent articles on the 360
Trail group’s proposal to
build a pathway beside the
Bromley oxidation ponds
and the effect this may have
on birds.
Some recent correspondents to
Southern View have completely
the wrong idea about the proposed
pathway along the east of
the oxidation ponds.
The path would meander
through the existing bush
between the oxidation ponds
bund and the estuary. It would be
invisible from the estuary, hence,
cause little or no disturbance to
birds on the estuary.
Further south between Sandy
Point and the windsurfing car
park is an existing exposed public
pathway.
The construction of a shade
cloth fence, until overgrown by
newly-planted native shrubs, will
reduce the existing disturbance
of the birds using this part of the
estuary.

Advice to stop the spread of coronavirus
•From page 1
Mrs Hodder said a leaflet offering
people advice on how to prepare
themselves for emergencies
like earthquakes was created by
the neighbourhood network and
delivered to Spreydon residents
three years ago. She said the information
within this will be useful
for those who are not members
of the Spreydon Neighbourhood
Network Facebook group.
Creating another pamphlet with
Covid-19 advice could also be an
option, she said.
Said Mrs Hodder: “I think people
should be being encouraged
to prepare by having things ready
without going overboard.”
The Ministry of Health’s
advice on stopping the spread of
Covid-19 includes:
Cough or sneeze into your
elbow or by covering your mouth
and nose with tissues. Put used
tissues in the bin immediately.
Wash your hands with soap and
water often (for at least 20sec).
Try to avoid close contact with
people who are unwell.
Don’t touch your eyes, nose or
mouth if your hands are not clean.

Davids heads national
body advocating for
community boards
LINWOOD-Central-
Heathcote Community Board
member Alexandra Davids
has become the youngest
person to head the national
body advocating for
community boards.
At 34, Ms Davids
plans to “take
advantage of my
relative youth and
energy to help advocate
and drive new
ideas and change” as
community board
executive committee
chairwoman for
Local Government
New Zealand.
“I was surprised to be chosen,
to an extent.
“It has taken many years for
younger people to be taken
seriously, so it has felt special to
be elected with support from
more mature people,” she said.
First elected to a community
board at age 28, Ms Davids
continues to build on her very
early commitment to helping
young people and families.
“Instead of going to holiday
programmes, my mum would
Alexandra Davids

send me to the Methodist Mission
Food Bank to volunteer
putting together food parcels
for families.
“I got to meet some of the
families and it gave
me an insight at a
very young age as
to how people were
struggling in our
city,” said Ms Davids.
Ms Davids also
works with the Battered
Women’s Trust,
answers calls for Crisisline,
is the chairwoman
for Keep New
Zealand Beautiful, a
school board, and is
a Graeme Dingle Foundation
trustee and Resource Management
Act commissioner.
She also stars in Murder
Mystery shows.
After finding her first-year
political science degree “rather
dry,” she opted to commit to
helping others and was voted
on the community board in
2013.
She said her new role offers
a good opportunity to “keep
local issues on the table.”

FAMILY: Andrei Moore (right) with his adopted father Richard Moore (left), his birth father Gabriel Toader and his adopted mother Karen Moore in Romania. (Right) –
Andrei with Richard and Karen outside the building he was born and found in.
‘Tracking down birth parents, the right thing to do’
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
ANDREI MOORE could have
been one of tens of thousands
of babies to grow up in an
orphanage in Romania.
It is why the Halswell-Hornby-
Riccarton Community Board
deputy chairman is determined
to give back to the Halswell community
– his home for the last 29
years.
Born in Târgoviste, Romania,
in 1991, it was a time when more
than 10,000 children were abandoned
in orphanages – leaving
them subject to neglect, physical
and sexual abuse and drug use to
control behaviour.
The overpopulation of children
was a result of communist
Romanian president Nicolae
Ceausescu banning contraception
and abortion in 1966 unless
the mother was more than
40-years-old or already had four
children in care.
By 1977, people were taxed
more for being childless.
Mr Moore’s birth parents
Gabriel and Lavinia Toader
could not afford to raise him
and he was due to go to an
orphanage.
“It is a totally bizarre scenario
. . . one of my biological brothers
was not so lucky, he grew up in
an orphanage,” he said.
But at two weeks old, the dull
outlook for Mr Moore’s life
drastically changed when he was
“intercepted” from the orphanage
and adopted by Karen and
Richard Moore.
Mr Moore’s father said his
parents “had nothing” and
when they found Andrei he was
“horribly underweight” and “ill”
already at two weeks old.
“I am really lucky to grow
up in a place such as Halswell
instead of remaining in an orphanage.
To be able to represent
a community that has given so
much means a huge amount,”
Mr Moore said.
Although he appreciates more
than most growing up in a quiet,
Andrei Moore
safe area of New Zealand, he
knew tracking down his birth
parents was the right thing to do.
“It felt like something that
needed to be done eventually,
while they are still alive and
while I am still alive. And the
other reason is my dad has been
nagging me for years.”
In 2017 Mr Moore was chosen
out of hundreds of applications,
to star on ThreeNow’s Lost and
Found – a documentary series
which sets about reuniting families,
uncovering cultural identity
and discovering lost family heritage.
“I didn’t do it to introduce two
more parents into my life. It was
more to meet and thank them
and know that was done,” Mr
Moore said.
It was not easy tracking down
his parents but through the television
show Mr Moore not only
met his parents but his sister and
brother.
“I found out I have three sisters
I never knew I had, I never knew
I was an uncle,” Mr Moore said.
All up, Mr Moore has six
brothers and three sisters from
different parents.
While having his personal life
laid out on a national television
show may not have been the
“ideal” way to find his long-lost
parents, Mr Moore knew it may
be the only way.
“When trying to find birth
parents on the other side of the
world that you haven’t been in
contact with over 20 years – you
are quite limited on where to
start and where to go.
Mr Moore hopes others
adopted as children may be
inspired to go on a similar
journey as him and find their
long-lost family.
Since the show re-aired this
month, Mr Moore said he has received
dozens of messages from
people encouraged to go out and
do the same thing.
While he has stayed in touch
with his siblings, he did not have
the same desire to keep in touch
with his parents.
Mr Moore will take over as
community board chairman
from November.

Market day at Cashmere HS goes green
FUN: Ellie Cooper, Grace Cooper and Lou Huggins sharing a
laugh.
SUSTAINABLE: Cashmere High School principal Joe Eccleton (left), Kristine Corpuz, Darcy
Prasad,Tayla Judkins and teacher Nick Milward took part in the school’s first green market day. ​
• By Matt Slaughter
CASHMERE HIGH School held
its first-ever green market day on
March 11.
Year 10 business studies students
managed a variety of stalls
mostly selling food or drinks.
For the first time, every group
served their products in biodegradable
packaging and with
compostable utensils.
This not only minimised the
environmental impact of the
event but was a contributing
factor in the majority of groups
making a good profit.
The students who participated
developed a full business plan
and gained skills to support their
futures in and out of school.
Every group voted to donate
the money raised, more than
over $150 in total, to the victims
of the March 15 terror attacks.
YUM: Orla Dunlop with dessert.
SERVICE: Jayden Sadlier Stock, Hannah-Jane Wilson and
Ava Barlow serving up the product, which they developed as
part of a project for their year 10 business class.

Tasty Bites
Simple meals to lift anyone’s spirits
• By Ian Knott
Who doesn’t love a
good feast of lasagne or
spaghetti bolognese?
For a change, try this
baked spaghetti recipe
instead. It’s super easy and
the perfect mash-up of
two family classics
Baked spaghetti
Serves 6
Ingredients
Cooking spray
500g spaghetti
2 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
500g beef mince
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 tsp Italian seasoning
1 can crushed tomatoes
½ cup basil, chopped
1 cup shredded mozzarella
¼ cup freshly grated parmesan
Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
Directions
Preheat oven to 180 deg C.
Grease a medium baking dish
with cooking spray.
Cook spaghetti according to
package directions until al-dente,
drain, and set aside.
Meanwhile, in a large skillet
over medium heat, heat oil. Add
onions and cook until soft and
translucent, about 5min. Stir in
garlic and cook until fragrant,
1min more. Add ground beef,
season with salt, pepper, and
Italian seasoning, and cook until
no longer pink, about 8min.
Drain fat in a bowl lined with
paper towels and return to pan.
Pour in crushed tomatoes and
basil and simmer until slightly
reduced, about 10min. Season
with more salt and pepper to
taste.
Toss with spaghetti, then
transfer to baking dish and top
with mozzarella and parmesan.
Bake until cheese is melted and
pasta is warmed through, about
20min.
Garnish with parsley and serve.
Homemade chicken
noodle soup is already
easy to whip up, but tossing
all of your ingredients in a
slow cooker makes it
even easier
Slow cooker chicken noodle
soup

8hr. Remove chicken from slow
cooker and shred with two forks.
Discard herbs and bay leaf.
Return chicken to slow cooker
and add egg noodles.
