TWO CHRISTCHURCH creatives have<br />
joined forces to showcase the best of<br />
New Brighton on the world stage, set to<br />
inspire hope for life beyond Covid-19.<br />
We got the Sunshine, a film by Claudia<br />
Stewart and Tabitha Palacios is in the<br />
running for a people’s choice award at<br />
global film competition, Musicbed Reopen<br />
Challenge.<br />
Filmmakers were challenged to share<br />
their stories and hopes for the future,<br />
shedding light on “reopening” the world<br />
in a better place than what it was before,<br />
especially with cultural and economic<br />
changes to come.<br />
Said Stewart, of Opawa: “When you<br />
join a neighbourhood like New Brighton,<br />
it’s more than buying a house. You’re<br />
joining a community of people that will<br />
support you and that helps each other do<br />
life together.<br />
“Early on we knew New Brighton<br />
would be great visually, but also the<br />
deeper messages of hope, community,<br />
creativity and supporting local were<br />
exceptionally demonstrated by the community.”<br />
She said they chose New Brighton due<br />
to the beauty of its beachside nature,<br />
focusing on its rich heritage and history<br />
of community and resilience, especially<br />
after the February 22, 2011, earthquake<br />
and now Covid-19.<br />

Pet food bank demand soars<br />
• By Bea Gooding<br />
ESTABLISHING a new pet<br />
food bank has paid off for an<br />
Avonside animal shelter, which<br />
has been “overwhelmed” with<br />
demand since opening its doors<br />
last month.<br />
The Arc Pet Food-Bank, run<br />
by small animal rescue Mabels<br />
Arc, has been able to provide pet<br />
food for more than 150 people<br />
within its first four weeks of<br />
service.<br />
The food bank supports<br />
those who have been struggling<br />
financially to feed their pets as<br />
well as those who were feeding<br />
and rescuing stray animals.<br />
Mother and daughter duo<br />
Kat Willan and Nirvana<br />
Barbara are the faces behind<br />
the new food bank service<br />
which has been running twice<br />
a week, supporting anywhere<br />
between five and 25 people<br />
per day.<br />
“We originally started off as<br />
a small animal rescue, but it<br />
has been put on hold after we<br />
realised how hard it was to get<br />
consistent help and donations,”<br />
said Barbara.<br />
“We’ve opened a food bank in<br />
the meantime as we still want to<br />
help people and their animals.”<br />
“A lot of people have been<br />
needing help,” she said,<br />
following financial hardships<br />
due to Covid-19, with some<br />
now living in cars or spending<br />
thousands of dollars on vet<br />
bills with no money left over to<br />
purchase pet food.<br />
“It feels good to be able to help<br />
people who won’t have to stress<br />
or give up animals because<br />
they’re under hardship,” she<br />
said.<br />
The Arc relied on self-funding<br />
along with monetary and food<br />
donations from the public and<br />
other animal rescue shelters to<br />
stay afloat.<br />
It was because of this that<br />
they were seeking to become a<br />
registered charity to open up<br />
funding options in order to<br />
provide for more pet owners<br />
across Christchurch.<br />
“It feels good to be able to<br />
help people who won’t have<br />
to stress or give up animals<br />
because they’re under<br />
hardship.”<br />
Nirvana Barbara<br />
Barbara believed their<br />
service was important for the<br />
community because they offered<br />
food for a wider range of pets<br />
than other animal shelters,<br />
which focused on cats and dogs.<br />
SUPPORT: The Arc Pet Food-<br />
Bank organisers Nirvana<br />
Barbara (left), and Kat Willan<br />
have been experiencing high<br />
demand since its opening last<br />
month.<br />
She expected to see demand<br />
continue to rise as the country<br />
was still grappling with the<br />
effects of Covid-19.<br />
“It’s really overwhelming for<br />
both of us knowing these people<br />
are going home and are able to<br />
feed their animals. Some have<br />
been turning up in tears,” she<br />
said.<br />
The service is currently<br />
running from Willan’s house<br />
and aims to secure a permanent<br />
facility in the future, with the<br />
aim of setting up a delivery<br />
system for those unable to access<br />
the food bank in person.<br />
Community<br />

With everything that the<br />
community had gone through,<br />
the beach was the one thing that<br />
remained a constant, bringing<br />
people together through its<br />
beauty.<br />
“We believe our greatest asset<br />
is our people, and community<br />
initiatives such as the Food Pantry<br />
and Blanket Bank are a great<br />
example of how sharing resources<br />
can fill those financial gaps some<br />
may face,” she said.<br />
The project was filmed and edited<br />
in about three weeks after the<br />
nationwide lockdown was lifted.<br />
“During the lockdown it did get<br />
lonely for some, and we realised<br />
that we should be out there connecting<br />
with our neighbours,<br />
sharing ideas and nurturing those<br />
relationships,” said Stewart.<br />
“It’s important to connect<br />
with people who have common<br />
interests to share ideas or even to<br />
start a business. Together we can<br />
get through this and make up for<br />
what we have lost.”<br />

FOCUS ON HEALTH<br />
1 in 2 people<br />
deficient in B12<br />
Emerging research has shown as many as 50% of older adults and<br />
as many as 25% of younger adults are deficient in vitamin B12.<br />
Scientists at Rush University Medical<br />
Center found those most deficient<br />
in vitamin B12 to have the smallest<br />
brain mass and the lowest scores on<br />
tests measuring short-term memory,<br />
concentration and brain performance.<br />
Another study showed that older people<br />
with higher levels of B12 in their blood<br />
have bigger, healthier brains and score<br />
higher on cognitive tests than those with<br />
lower levels. Yet another recent landmark<br />
study showed that B12 supplementation<br />
slows the accelerated rate of brain<br />
shrinkage and declining cognitive<br />
function. B12 is essential for energy<br />
production, cell health, regulation of<br />
mood and sleep cycles, nerve health and<br />
repair, and prevention of homocysteine<br />
a serious cardiovascular risk factor<br />
that is known to cause damage and<br />
plaque in the blood vessels. It can also<br />
increase the chances of a stroke. Harvard<br />
researchers found<br />
a 34% decrease<br />
risk of vision<br />
loss in a study<br />
of participants<br />
aged 40+ who<br />
supplemented with<br />
B12. Another study<br />
linked a higher risk of hearing loss in<br />
subjects in their 60’s who were low in B12.<br />
The reason so many people lack B12<br />
appears to be our body’s ability to absorb<br />
it declining with age as the digestive<br />
system becomes less efficient. Anti-reflux<br />
medication and other drugs further<br />
reduce B12 absorption. The good news<br />
is B12 in the form of Methylcobalamin<br />
sublingual tablets that are dissolved in the<br />
mouth and thru bypassing the digestive<br />
tract have been shown to effectively raise<br />
B12 levels in the body.<br />

IS YOUR BRAIN SHRINKING?<br />
Brain fog, forgetful, feeling old, low energy,<br />
mood swings, difficulty sleeping, pins & needles,<br />
numbness in legs<br />
Up to 1 in 2 people may have a shrinking<br />
brain due to a lack of vitamin B12.<br />
Supplementation of methylcobalamin B12<br />
has been shown to reduce the rate of<br />
brain shrinkage & support memory & brain<br />
function. B12 is also known to protect against<br />
homocysteine a serious cardiovascular risk<br />
factor that can also damage the hearing,<br />
eyesight & affect the mood. B12 is essential<br />
for energy, cell health & nerve function.<br />
<strong>30</strong>-year dedication<br />
brings pier back to life<br />
The New Brighton<br />
Museum has a rich<br />
history spanning more<br />
than 100 years. Peggy<br />
Butterfield writes<br />
monthly about the<br />
historical display at the<br />
heritage museum<br />
The old New Brighton<br />
Pier was opened in 1894,<br />
and was much loved by the<br />
locals, but it gradually developed<br />
rot over the years<br />
and was finally demolished<br />
on October 12, 1965.<br />
The community was<br />
devastated by this loss and<br />
over the next <strong>30</strong> years they<br />
set about the huge number<br />
of fundraising ventures.<br />
The Pier and Foreshore<br />
Society was formed, and<br />
chocolate wheels were held<br />
every Saturday, raffles,<br />
dances, selling bricks, a<br />
huge number of activities.<br />
Nans Grans were also<br />
formed and they raised<br />
thousands of dollars at<br />
their concerts.<br />
It was the dedicated<br />
community who raised<br />
the $2 million which was<br />
then matched by the city<br />
council after much lobbying<br />
by people such as Peter<br />
FUNDRAISER: Members from a longboarders club<br />
volunteered to build this house in 1995 to raise<br />
funds for the New Brighton Pier.<br />
BIRDS OF THE ESTUARY<br />
PEGASUS POST<br />
Dunbar and Mike Stevens.<br />
One of the biggest fundraisers<br />
was the building<br />
of a house in Aston Drive,<br />
North Shore.<br />
This was a mammoth<br />
task undertaken by the New<br />
Brighton Working Men’s<br />
Longboarders Club. The<br />
project co-ordinator was<br />
Ross Tyson, and the building<br />
project spanned over<br />
12 months. The labour was<br />
provided by more than 70<br />
club members, all voluntary.<br />
The club had tradesmen<br />
such as plumbers, roofers,<br />
stoppers, and joiners. Most<br />
of the building materials<br />
were donated, with businesses<br />
from as far away<br />
as Dunedin contributing<br />
to the cause, as well as<br />
many local businesses<br />
such as Placemakers, New<br />
Brighton, and Rookwood<br />
Holdings.<br />
The project was finished<br />
in 1996 and the house went<br />
to auction boosting the<br />
pier funds by more than<br />
$120,000.<br />

- WE ARE ALWAYS HAPPY TO HELP! -<br />
A TALL and elegant bird,<br />
the white-faced heron is<br />
actually quite new to New<br />
Zealand<br />
This heron species<br />
introduced themselves<br />
in the 1940s and are now<br />
commonly seen in our<br />
estuary, McCormacks Bay,<br />
Charlesworth Wetland,<br />
Linwood canal, Bexley and<br />
even on sports fields and<br />
paddocks – but only after<br />
heavy rain, as they prefer to<br />
search for their food while<br />
wading in shallow water.<br />
They are awesome birds<br />
to observe while they stand<br />
patiently. Without moving<br />
as much as a feather, they<br />
wait for prey to be within<br />
sight to then at lightning<br />
speed grab either a small<br />
fish, crab, worm, mouse,<br />
lizard or frog.<br />
STALKING: You’ll often see the white-faced heron<br />
standing motionless while hunting.<br />
Lizards and frogs are<br />
more common around the<br />
estuary than most people<br />
are aware of.<br />
White-faced heron’s nest<br />
near our estuary in the tops<br />
of pine and macrocarpa<br />
trees particularly favouring<br />
South New Brighton Park<br />
and the lower Avon River.<br />
How can we help these<br />
birds thrive? Keep dogs<br />
on the lead when walking<br />
near the estuary as to not<br />
disturb them while feeding<br />
or resting.

<strong>2020</strong> at Emmanuel<br />
Christian School<br />
has been one<br />
where we have<br />
continued to see<br />
significant growth.<br />
We have welcomed 50<br />
new students to the school<br />
seeing the roll increase from<br />
208 to the 239 it is today.<br />
To cater for this we have<br />
just completed several new<br />
classroom spaces, students<br />
and staff have been excited<br />
to move into these rooms<br />
which give us the space we<br />
need for now and into the<br />
future. The support we have<br />
had from present and past<br />
parents and families of the<br />
school to make this possible<br />
has been a real blessing.<br />
Welcome to Casebrook<br />
Intermediate School<br />
Year 7 & 8 students are a unique age<br />
group that we specialise in educating.<br />
Our staff and school resources are<br />
all geared for this stage of personal<br />
development and focus on providing as a<br />
diverse range of learning opportunities to<br />
create a rounded and engaged individual.<br />
Our learning environment is supported<br />
by a strong focus on our school values<br />
of Respect (Whakaute), Excellence<br />
(Panekiretanga) and Perseverance<br />
(Hiringa). Through these ‘REP’ values<br />
we develop within each student a sense<br />
of self worth to realise their importance<br />
as a member of our Casebrook<br />
community.<br />
Our school environment is one where<br />
students are safe and have the confidence<br />
to take risks with their learning. In<br />
this way the students at Casebrook are<br />
supported and encouraged to become<br />
self-motived, independent learners.<br />
We value the partnership between<br />
home and school. Together we can<br />
create an environment where we foster<br />
feelings of pride and belonging. We are<br />
sure you will enjoy being a part of our<br />

Selwyn House - Where Girls Thrive<br />
Selwyn House is an all girls’ school for<br />
Years 1 to 8, with a focus on developing<br />
inquiring and empathetic minds and<br />
building strong knowledge foundations so<br />
that our students will face the future with<br />
the skills and confidence to be empowered<br />
global citizens.<br />
We prepare our students for the<br />
challenges and opportunities they will<br />
encounter using the latest technological<br />
tools within a creative and nurturing<br />
environment. With access to the best<br />
modern facilities and outstanding teachers,<br />
our students learn to think creatively, work<br />
collaboratively and to approach each new<br />
challenge with a can-do attitude. They are<br />
problem-solvers and powerful thinkers -<br />
attributes that are needed and valued in the<br />
future workforce.<br />
A key ingredient of the education at<br />
Selwyn House School is the International<br />
Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme<br />
(PYP), which is recognised globally as<br />
a future-focused curriculum based on<br />
intercultural understanding and respect.<br />
The PYP focus is on the total growth<br />
of the developing child, encompassing<br />
intellectual, social, physical, emotional,<br />
spiritual and cultural needs. We use<br />
structured, purposeful inquiry as the<br />
vehicle for learning, and our goal is to<br />
develop an understanding in our students<br />
that they can make a difference to their<br />
world.<br />
Selwyn House School has a culture of<br />
academic achievement and consequently<br />
our students perform significantly higher<br />
than the international student cohort.<br />
Learning in the core subjects of English,<br />
Maths and Science is complemented by the<br />
range of specialist subjects we<br />
offer, including Mechatronics,<br />
Robotics, Artificial Intelligence,<br />
Performing Arts, Music, Physical<br />
Education, Visual Art<br />
and Spanish - each<br />
taught by dedicated<br />
specialist teachers<br />
who are able to impart<br />
their knowledge<br />
and passion to our<br />
students.<br />
Small class sizes<br />
ensure learning is<br />
personalised and<br />
teachers are able to build strong<br />
connections with each child and<br />
provide clear learning strategies<br />
so that students are enabled to take control<br />
of their learning, self-regulate, and develop<br />
self-efficacy.<br />
Choose Selwyn House to give your<br />
daughter the education which will allow<br />
her leadership and personal strengths to<br />
blossom, and allow us to help her become a<br />
confident and informed individual, eager to<br />
take her part in the world.<br />
Be Our Guest<br />
