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.

John Clark to get the book
printed.

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

“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

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’

The application was publicly

four were neutral about the

Tegel has since made
improvements to reduce the

to rotten meat, including

with extraction to the biofilter
to increase ventilation, and
construction of a re-designed

Positive music album proving popular
• By Bea Gooding
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
is so overwhelming, and as a
parent and teacher, it’s a heavy

responsibility to take the anxiety
out of the world to protect your
kids,” she said.
“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.”
•The Can You Make
Music? album was
released last month and

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
• By Bea Gooding
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
is so overwhelming, and as a
parent and teacher, it’s a heavy

responsibility to take the anxiety
out of the world to protect your
kids,” she said.
“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.”

Music? album was
released last month and

City councillors James Gough,
Sam MacDonald, Catherine

and James Daniels have sent a

Plan also predicts a 50 per cent
rates increase over 10 years.
