lose bid 

to stop 

discharge 

from 

factory 

• By Bea Gooding 

SCHOOLS IN Hornby have lost 

a bid to stop a poultry processing 

plant from continuing to discharge 

contaminants into the air. 

Tegel Foods Ltd’s 

resource consent 

application to 

replace its existing 

consents for discharges 

from the 

plant was approved 

by Environment Robin Sutton 

Canterbury at a 

hearing. 

The company has consent for the 

next 20 years to discharge the contaminants, 

including combustion 

products from the operation of six 

boilers, a poultry smokehouse and 

odour from poultry processing. 

In a submission to Environment 

Canterbury, Hornby High School 

principal Robin Sutton described 

the negative impact the “freezing 

works” odour had on students at the 

school, and at other schools in close 

proximity, such as Hornby Primary 

School. • Turn to page 7

Vivid dreams catalyst for 75-year-old’s book 

• By Devon Bolger 

SEVENTY-FIVE-year-old John 

Ferris was able to achieve a goal 

he never thought possible with 

the help of a community group 

for the elderly. 

It was about three years ago 

when the Ilam resident had an 

extremely vivid dream which 

kick-started the idea for his 

book, Laura. 

It is about an escaped criminal 

and a saviour’s journey around 

the South Island to find justice 

for her. 

“Sometimes I have incredible 

dreams, if I eat strong cheese 

I will. I had this dream about 

Laura, a runaway from prison 

and decided one night that I 

would type it up,’’ Ferris said. 

“I’m not very good at typing or 

writing but for some reason or 

another I kept writing.” 

After a long journey, Ferris’ 

book has now been published. 

“You’ve got no idea what a 

lift it gave me to have a tangible 

copy, I’d never done anything 

like that, nobody in my family 

had ever written anything like 

that,” he said. 

Ferris said he needed a push 

to get the book published, which 

is exactly what he got from the 

Selwyn SeniorNet. 

The group is dedicated to helping 

people over 50 learn to use

technology. 

“I’d started going to the group 

and one day a member there, Tui 

Heighway, was looking through 

my computer and she said: ‘Oh 

what’s this, John’s story?’ 

“I said: ‘Oh it’s a book I wrote,’ 

and she asked if she could read it.

“They helped me in a number

Pink Ribbon walk in memory of 

FUN: With 5km and 10km routes, the walks 

are accessible to everyone, no matter their 

age or fitness level. 

BEVAN SANDISON is doing the 

Pink Ribbon Walk next month in 

memory of his mother Raewynne who 

lost her battle with breast cancer in 

April 2018. 

“I’m doing this walk, along with 

my kids, Katie, 12, and Emma, 9, to 

remember my mum/their nana,” he 

said. 

“She was an amazingly strong 

woman, who inspirationally fought 

the good fight for us, for a few years 

after being diagnosed, giving us some 

extra time to grow new memories 

with her.” 

Sandison said his mother was 

diagnosed after finding a lump in 

2013. As it was caught early she was 

able to get radiation treatment. The 

treatment was considered a success 

and the prognosis was great. She was 

able to continue working as a secondary 

school teacher through until she 

retired a year or so later. 

“However, very shortly afterwards, 

and with big plans ahead for her retirement 

with dad, her world and ours, 

got turned upside down when one 

Sunday morning, whilst lifting a bag 

of groceries out of the car boot, a bone 

in her upper arm suddenly broke clean 

through,” said Sandison. 

“X-rays and scans then confirmed 

the worst, that her treatment hadn’t 

been as successful as had thought, but 

rather, had metastasised into stage 4 

cancer, having spread to her bones. 

“Being given the new prognosis 

that stage 4 has no cure, was literally 

devastating news, and I will always 

vividly remember sitting there with 

mum at the hospital receiving the

news. I knew little about breast cancer, 

and so the information made available 

from Breast Cancer Foundation NZ 

was very helpful in those early stages 

as we all tried to come to terms with 

things.

mother 

“The following couple of years were 

riddled with hospital visits, radiation 

treatment to shrink tumours that 

kept appearing on the spine and other 

places, and various drug treatments. 

Having damaged a nerve in her arm 

when her arm broke, affecting 

her hand meaning she was no longer 

able to drive, the resultant trips to the 

oncologist became a regular part of 

live for the family as we all chipped in 

to help with transport and to attend 

and support mum. 

“Through it all, including some 

very tough times, the care and 

treatment mum received was simply 

amazing, and the new oral chemo 

pill she was on, did a wonderful job 

of extending her time, and allowing 

us to enjoy some valuable time with 

her, and for her to see her grandkids 

get a couple of years older, before she 

finally had to leave us.” 

•The walk will be held 

on Saturday, October 

17, in Hagley Park, with 

pre-event entertainment 

from 2.15pm and 

the walk starting 

at 3pm. Tickets are 

available online now at

•In the Canterbury 

District Health Board 

region around 400 

women are diagnosed 

with breast cancer each 

year, and every year 

around 77 will die. 

•Pink Ribbon Walks 

are annual fundraisers 

which celebrate breast 

cancer survivors, 

remember those who 

have been lost, promote 

breast health awareness, 

and raise muchneeded 

funds to work 

towards Breast Cancer 

Foundation NZ vision of 

zero deaths from breast 

cancer. 

•With 5km and 10km 

routes, the walks are 

accessible to everyone, 

no matter their age or

walking can still take 

part by signing up to

Merrin School bakes 

for animal welfare 

MERRIN SCHOOL senior 

pupils put their creative baking 

hats on in support of SPCA 

Cupcake Day. 

They raised more than $500 

selling creative cupcakes, with all 

the funds going to the thousands 

of animals that the charity helps 

every year. 

They are now calling for Kiwi 

home bakers to roll up their 

sleeves and get behind the annual 

SPCA Cupcake Day fundraiser 

next month. 

Over the years, the event has 

raised close to $3.2 million helping 

the tens of thousands of animals 

that come through SPCA’s 

doors each year in need of care, 

shelter and veterinary treatment. 

Cupcake Day is the last major 

fundraising event of the year and 

the animal welfare charity is encouraging 

keen baking enthusiasts 

to get stuck into the kitchen, 

whip up a batch of cupcakes and 

sell them at workplaces, schools, 

and to family and friends. 

Last year saw 1092 home bakers 

get involved, and 641 businesses. 

SPCA chief executive Andrea 

Midgen says recent events had 

taken a big bite out of the charity, 

but here was something tangible 

that supporters could do to help. 

She adds that because levels are 

going down, the charity is moving 

full steam ahead with their 

sweetest fundraiser of the year. 

“Baking a dozen cupcakes and 

fundraising is a small act of kindness 

that has a big impact and we 

are so grateful to all the animal 

lovers who bake so passionately 

for a wonderful cause,” she said. 

Funds raised from SPCA 

Cupcake Day will be used across 

the country to aid in rescuing, 

rehabilitating and rehoming 

animals in need. 

•Kiwis are encouraged 

to bake a difference for 

animals in need and sign 

up for SPCA Cupcake Day 

on November 2. Sign up

‘Tegel needs to be good neighbours’ 

• From page 1 

Said Sutton: “The odour 

affects our learning 

environment. The odour lowers 

the focus and concentration

learning more difficult. There 

is a need to close the windows 

in an attempt to reduce the

The application was publicly 

notified in December last year, 

where ECan received 24 

submissions, with 12 in opposition, 

eight in support, and 

four were neutral about the 

proposal. 

Tegel has since made 

improvements to reduce the 

odour which has been likened 

to rotten meat, including 

fitting a wastewater tank lid

to increase ventilation, and 

construction of a re-designed

Positive music album proving popular 


MICHAL BUSH has always had 

a passion for connecting with 

children through the world of 

music. 

The mother of three has now 

become a hit on YouTube, with 

her song Kindness is Free, stacking 

up more 

than 40,000 

views. 

The positive 

song, which 

came out in 

2019, helped 

Michal Bush 

her and other 

parents talk to 

their children about the March 

15 mosque attacks and the importance 

of kindness. 

To help families take a break 

from the “overwhelming” 

anxieties of the world during 

Covid-19, Bush created Can You 

Make Music? – a new, 15-track 

children’s music album with an 

overarching theme of well-being. 

Bush said the album was 

recorded during the lockdown 

and took three to four months 

to complete, with the help of a 

funding grant from Creative

“So this is using music in a 

positive way to help children focus 

on the goodness in the world, 

and as parents, it helps you to 

take a deep breath, have fun, and 

see that life is beautiful.” 

Bush has always loved music 

and has been songwriting since 

she was a child. She started 

focusing on children’s music for 

the last eight years following the 

birth of her daughter. 

Ever since, she has performed 

in numerous early childhood 

centres, pre-schools, trusts and 

online to develop children’s interest 

in singing and rhythm with 

her Music with Michal Club. 

“It’s [music] so much a part 

of who I am, how I process the 

world, how I get my thoughts out 

and how I connect with other 

people,” she said. 

“I’m so drawn to children’s 

music because I love the wonder 

and awe of it, it’s the best job 

ever. Children are such a wonderful 

audience, they come with 

so much joy.” 

Her songs have been used as a 

resource by teachers and parents 

across the country. Her children 

were a “big” part of the process 

having heard the album through 

its different stages of completion 

and also sang in a few songs. 

Said Bush: “Thanks to the 

grant from Creative NZ, I was 

able to hire my friends who are 

amazing producers to help produce 

the album, which we made 

from our own homes. It was a 

very cool process. 

“The album brings joy and 

connection between parent 

and child, which celebrates 

the childlike point of view of 

the world, sparks creativity in 

children and helps parents feel 

like kids again.”

Your Local Views 

Addressing tree removal challenges 

From the board 

David Cartwright, chair 

Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Community Board 

CHRISTCHURCH, in the past, 

has often been referred to as the 

Garden City, this being a nod to 

our beautiful gardens, trees and 

shrubs that are the pride and 

joy and method of relaxation for 

many of our city residents. 

I am very proud of this identity, 

it sets us apart from other 

New Zealand towns and cities. I 

enjoy my weekends in the garden 

and I can recall many fond childhood 

memories with my parents 

in their garden as I grew up. 

We are blessed with great 

parks across the city, a worldclass 

Botanic Gardens and places 

like Mona Vale with its gardens 

broadening the Avon River. 

Mature trees across the city add 

considerable value to this picture, 

and recently the city council has 

been consulting on its tree policy. 

For a period of 15-plus years, 

this policy has needed clarity 

and updating. Thanks to our new 

chief executive Dawn Baxendale 

this has occurred with a draft 

proposal now out for comment. 

It is an important document as 

it affects everyone. Trees bring 

significant pleasure to many people; 

children love climbing them 

and they bring cover in the heat 

of summer. 

To our native birds, they 

provide food and shelter. From 

a climate change perspective, 

trees add a huge value providing 

shade and a cooling effect plus 

help filter out carbon from the 

atmosphere. 

As a community board, we are 

regularly faced with tree removal 

challenges, with compliant of 

damage to footpaths and stormwater 

pipes. In some cases, this 

may require a resource consent 

or a medical certificate from a 

resident to remove a tree. Having 

a policy that directs a board, that 

makes it clear to residents what 

is permitted (or not), is easy to 

interrupt and is consistent across 

the city will make resolving these 

issues easier. 

In addition, the policy takes a 

proactive approach to replanting/ 

replacement programmes and 

maintenance issues combined 

with addressing tree species will 

help long-term. I will update 

readers in time on the process 

here. 

Readers might have also 

seen recent articles about the 

Bishopdale Mall “master” plan 

and plans for a development in 

this area – the community board 

wants to see a positive outcome 

for all the stakeholders here both 

short and long-term. No set ideas 

are set in stone and should you 

have an interest in this area/ 

project please get in touch. 

MAINTENANCE: Christchurch has the world-class 

Botanic Gardens and a proactive approach to 

replanting and replacement of trees.

Positive music album proving popular 


MICHAL BUSH has always had 

a passion for connecting with 

children through the world of 

music. 

The mother of three has now 

become a hit on YouTube, with 

her song Kindness is Free, stacking 

up more 

than 40,000 

views. 

The positive 

song, which 

came out in 

2019, helped 

Michal Bush 

her and other 

parents talk to 

their children about the March 

15 mosque attacks and the importance 

of kindness. 

To help families take a break 

from the “overwhelming” 

anxieties of the world during 

Covid-19, Bush created Can You 

Make Music? – a new, 15-track 

children’s music album with an 

overarching theme of well-being. 

Bush said the album was 

recorded during the lockdown 

and took three to four months 

to complete, with the help of a 

funding grant from Creative 

New Zealand. 

“Music is an incredible tool for 

heavy issues. I think the world

parent and teacher, it’s a heavy

CALLS HAVE been made to 

stop rates increases in response 

to the Covid-19 crisis. 

City councillors James Gough, 

Sam MacDonald, Catherine 

Chu, Phil Mauger, Aaron Keown 

and James Daniels have sent a 

letter to Mayor Lianne Dalziel 

asking her to lead a conversation 

as to how a zero per cent rates 

increase could be achieved this 

year. 

The city council is proposing 

an average rates increase of 4.65 

per cent across all ratepayers in 

this year’s Draft Annual Plan 

which is currently under public 

consultation until April 5 and 

will be finalised before July 1. 

The 2018-2028 Long Term 

Plan also predicts a 50 per cent 

rates increase over 10 years.
