$12.5m for estuary works

A $12.5 MILLION package of 

works to address erosion and 

flood risk in Southshore and 

South New Brighton has been 

approved by the city council. 

“The works we have approved 

should resolve the earthquake 

legacy issues that have left 

parts of Southshore and South 

New Brighton more prone to 

flooding and coastal erosion,’’ 

said Mayor Lianne Dalziel. 

“Residents in these suburbs 

have been calling for action to 

resolve these issues and I am 

pleased that we can now give 

them certainty about the way 

forward. 

“I want to thank residents 

for the way they have worked 

with us to come up with 

solutions.’’

IS THE city council meeting 

your needs when it comes to its 

services and facilities? 

That’s what the bosses at the 

city council want to know as they 

embark on their annual residents’ 

survey. 

Each year the city council 

surveys residents across the city to 

understand how satisfied they are 

with services covering its parks, 

libraries and service centres. 

New Brighton Residents’ 

Association spokesman Brian 

Donovan said residents were 

pleased to see progress in the east, 

such as the new beach-side hot 

pools, surf club, plans to address 

flood-risk issues along the estuary 

and fixing some deteriorating 

roads. 

Although issues were being 

highlighted, he believed the 

“growing disconnect” between 

the city council and residents 

“desperately” needed to be addressed 

and improved.

Barber a hero for family violence work 


HAIR ISN’T the only thing Matt 

Brown cuts. 

The My Fathers Barbers 

founder has made it his mission 

over the last decade to help cut 

toxic masculinity out of the lives 

of men who sit in his chairs. 

Over time the shop has offered 

a safe haven for men to heal, 

connect and open up about the 

issues affecting them instead of 

bottling it up inside. 

Brown discovered the role 

barbershops played in helping 

men share their pain and started 

the She Is Not Your Rehab movement, 

which encourages them 

to acknowledge experiences 

of childhood abuse instead of 

taking it out on their wives and 

girlfriends. 

He has now been named as a 

winner of the Westfield Local 

Heroes awards due to his commitment 

to ending the cycle of 

domestic and family violence. 

The awards recognised role 

models across the country and 

the positive impact their work 

had within their communities. 

As a survivor of family 

violence and child sexual abuse 

himself, he understood the importance 

of having someone to 

confide in. 

Said Brown: “The movement

Terms and conditions apply on all promotions 

is simply an invitation for men 

to acknowledge their own 

childhood trauma, and to take 

responsibility for their healing 

instead of transmitting it on 

those around them.” 

As voted by the community, 

Brown was awarded a $10,000 

grant, which he said would be 

used to run more local group 

therapy sessions for men. 

The idea for She Is Not Your 

Rehab started in a garden shed 

and has gone on to receive international 

recognition. 

News of his talent for delivering 

fresh cuts quickly grew over 

social media, along with the 

number of men who were visiting 

barbers for more than just a 

haircut. 

Wanting to raise awareness 

even further, Brown became an 

ambassador for the Ministry of 

Social Development’s ‘It’s not 

OK’ campaign in 2018 – an initiative 

which aims to change how 

New Zealanders think and act 

towards family violence. 

In collaboration with family 

violence centre Aviva Families, 

he also hosts a men’s antiviolence 

support group from his 

barbershop. 

Since then he has delivered a 

TEDx talk in 2019, where he and 

his wife, Sarah, launched the 

concept of the movement and 

HIKING BOOTS 

& SHOES 

has facilitated a barber program 

at youth justice facility Te Puna 

Wai O Tuhinapo at Christchurch 

Men’s Prison. 

The number of men seeking 

help has increased since the 

movement took off on social 

media. 

“Our communities are crying 

out for help, support and tools 

to see these cycles of abuse 

and trauma come to an 

end,” said Brown. 

As a barber he has had 

a list of impressive clients 

including All Blacks to 

American hip hop icons, 

Wu-Tang Clan. 

For men, women 

and children 

From 

$79.95 

to $250 

This year he continues to work 

alongside the Department of 

Corrections as a patron.

founder Matt 

Brown has been 

recognised at the 

Westfield Local 

Heroes awards 

for his bid to 

end the cycle of 

abuse and family 

violence. 

Solutions 

From page 1 

The work approved by the city 

council includes: 

• Replacing or covering the 

structures with rocks along the 

estuary edge in Southshore to 

reduce the erosion risk, and 

introducing a cobble beach 

with an offshore breakwater 

to encourage the saltmarsh to 

form a natural form of erosion 

protection. 

• Building a new bund in 

Southshore to reduce the flood 

risk. 

• Restoring the estuary edge 

in South New Brighton with a 

cobble beach. 

• Constructing a new bund 

between the jetty near Beatty 

St and the southern end of the 

campground in Halsey St. 

The city council has already 

made improvements to the 

northern part of the estuary 

walkway and construction is 

complete on the southern section 

of a bund in South New 

Brighton, between Bridge St and 

South New Brighton School. 

Work on the northern section 

of the bund will be completed in 

2021 following the bird-nesting 

season. 

This bund, alongside the 

additional bunds approved, will 

together reduce flood risk along 

the estuary edge.

Preparing young for life’s adversities 

Myriad groups help 

keep our community 

moving. Reporter Bea 

Gooding speaks to 

Life Education Trust 

Canterbury community 

engagement manager 

Andy Gray about why 

the trust has been an 

iconic fixture in schools 

for the past 30 years 

and why he’s involved 

Could you tell me a bit 

about what the Life Education 

Trust does, and how it came 

to be what it is today in 

Canterbury? 

The Life Education Trust 

started over 30 years ago, which 

started in Canterbury. There’s 

now 32 regional trusts across 

the country, and one national 

branch. The vision is to inspire 

tamariki and rangatahi to make 

positive choices and to give them 

the power to do that. The trust 

addresses challenges including 

obesity, substance use, mental 

health and well-being and 

bullying. 

We operate in three mobile 

classrooms in Canterbury, 

they’re like big container shells 

that have been turned into

classrooms and are moved 

around different schools – 

whether it was as far as Omihi in 

North Canterbury, right down 

to Rakaia. Whether schools have 

35 students or 500 students, we 

end up making our way there no 

matter where they are. 

What issues is the trust 

currently facing in the wake of 

Covid-19? 

Quite a few in all fairness – 

when Covid-19 hit during the 

first lockdown, even though we 

were still continuing to support 

the teachers and tamariki during 

lockdown, we didn’t get any 

school fees come in, and the 

funders that we usually used 

were all closed down. 

It’s been tough, but we 

managed to get through it and 

we’re in a better position now. 

We reached out to a lot of people 

that have done quite 

well throughout Covid-19, 

like supermarkets, and to the 

Rata Foundation and Lottery 

Grants Board who have helped 

us out. 

With Covid-19 it’s a doubleedged 

sword. It’s great that 

we’re busier now and we’re 

looking to expand to a fourth 

classroom because of it. But the 

double-edged side of that sword 

is obviously with increased 

demand it means that more 

people are affected, there are 

higher anxiety levels. 

We’ve learned a lot about 

mental health from the 

earthquakes in the past 10 years 

and also the mosque attacks 

where kids have been affected. 

Things like a lack of employment 

that comes from it just filters 

through to the kids, so we expect 

to see increased demand over the 

next few months. 

The trust has been iconic in 

Canterbury schools for the past 

30 years. What do you attribute 

towards its success? 

Obviously, the most 

memorable thing about Life 

Education is Harold the Giraffe. 

But the reason why I think we’re 

so iconic is because we tend to 

react to the issues currently at 

hand.

“A local team for local people”



and challenges 

We don’t get any government 

or Ministry of Education funding, 

so we aren’t led by their 

agenda, and it’s why we’re the 

number one health education 

provider. We don’t want to be led 

by what they want, which is why 

we work with teachers to adapt 

[the lesson]. I think that’s what 

makes us so successful. 

Why did you decide to join 

the trust? 

I’ve got a wee eight-year-old 

boy and things are a little bit different 

now than back in my day; 

kids have got different challenges 

now, so I just wanted to make 

sure I was getting in touch with 

what was going on. Kids seem to 

be a lot more involved and more 

aware of what’s happening around 

them because of social media and 

access to the internet. That was 

my excuse to get involved and 

understand what’s happening in 

my own child’s head. 

What are the rewarding parts 

of your job? 

The kids – when Harold comes 

on board, the kids wander in and 

when they see him, they all get 

pretty excited to hear what he 

has to say. It’s the kids’ reactions 

which I find the most rewarding. 

Like most jobs, it’s not always 

fun and games. What can be 

challenging about your role? 

I think seeing the statistics 

that are pretty grim, like when I 

hear about the teen suicide rates 

or how many kids are stressed. 

About 35 per cent of kids are 

stressed at least once a week. 

It’s like, bloody hell, these kids 

are eight or nine-years-old, they 

shouldn’t be stressed, they should 

be watching Pokémon on TV or 

something. 

Tell me a bit about where life 

began for you – where did you 

grow up? How about family? 

I was born in Salford, United 

Kingdom. When I was about 

13-years-old my folks decided to 

ship us all over, with my brothers 

and sister, and start life 

afresh over here. I ended up 

going to school down the road at 

Christchurch Boys’ High School, 

and eventually at the University 

of Canterbury. 

After travelling overseas for a 

while, I came back and became 

the director at Specsavers (Papanui) 

after opening up a franchise 

here. After selling that I was 

lucky that I had a bit more free to 

pick and choose the jobs I wanted 

to do, and that’s when the Life 

Education Trust job came up. 

ICON: The Life Education Trust has been visiting Canterbury 

schools for more than 30 years. 

My two brothers live in Sunshine 

Coast and Gold Coast in 

Australia. My sister is here in 

Christchurch so she’s not very 

far from me, and my parents 

are retired now and live in the 

Hurunui District. 

Do you remember much from 

life back in England? 

I remember quite a lot of it. It’s 

quite a rough spot where we were, 

a lot of cars were being nicked 

every night and there were a lot 

of fights, you could just watch it 

from your window - that’s what it 

was all to me. 

One of my favourite parts 

about my home town is the 

football, everyone enjoyed a bit 

of soccer. You could play it in 

the streets, you’d just jump over 

the back fence after school and 

go play with your friends in the 

streets. 

Aside from your work, what 

do you like to do in your spare 

time? 

I enjoy any sport, especially 

soccer being English and all. 

I’ve always the idea of making 

something myself so I make short 

films on the side. 

I make any type of short film, 

it’s just a matter of writing a 

script and trying to gain funding 

to do it. 

I’ve always loved movies, the 

idea for me growing up was to 

become either a football player, a 

fireman or a moviemaker.

of Kiwi businesses answer.

Survey to gauge areas 

of improvement 

• From page 1 

“I think in some areas they are 

[meeting needs], a bit of work 

is finally being done to some 

of those roads in the eastern 

suburbs, and the hot pools are 

attracting a hell of a lot of people 

outside of New Brighton. 

“We’re really confident that 

we’ve turned a corner. [New 

Brighton] is becoming a recreational 

playground. 

“But there’s a disconnect between 

residents and the council, 

for instance, residents seem to 

have no way to express their concerns 

to the council.” 

The city council needed to 

prioritise fixing the “state” of 

Pages and New Brighton Rds, the 

Pages Rd bridge, taking action on 

New Brighton Mall, and addressing 

general untidiness as more 

visitors and businesses flocked to 

the area. 

City council chief executive 

Dawn Baxendale said the survey 

was one of the tools used to assess 

where they were performing well, 

and where improvements needed 

to be made and prioritised. 

“We want to find out what is 

working well for residents and 

what’s not working well because 

our focus, as an organisation, is 

on meeting the needs of our 

HAVE YOUR SAY: Is the 

city council meeting your

residents,” she said. 

“The findings of this year’s 

survey programme will feed into 

the development of our 2021-31 

Long Term Plan, so I would really 

encourage people to share their 

views if they are approached by 

staff at a council location or if 

they receive an email or letter 

from us.” 

This year’s survey included specific 

questions that will help the 

city council decide what it should 

prioritise in the LTP. 

The LTP is the document that 

councils are legally required to 

produce every three years. It sets 

out what the city council will do 

over the next 10 years and how it 

will pay for it. 

“The Covid-19 pandemic has 

prompted many people, businesses 

and organisations to rethink 

their plans and priorities and to 

tighten their belts. We are having 

to do that too,” said Baxendale. 

The findings of the survey 

programme will be made public 

next year. 

Community to be involved 

in red zone decisions 

A NEW co-governance entity 

is being investigated for the 

former residential red zone to 

ensure mana whenua and the 

community are involved in 

deciding its future. 

Land Information New Zealand 

currently owns most of the 

residential red zone on behalf of 

the Crown. 

However, it has started the 

process of transferring parcels of 

land in the Ōtākaro Avon River 

Corridor to city council ownership. 

That process is expected to 

take up to two years to complete. 

Mayor Lianne Dalziel said this 

offered a chance to create a lasting 

legacy for the city, therefore 

it was important to partner with 

iwi and the community on decisions 

regarding its long-term use. 

“Under the Global Settlement 

with the Crown, ownership of 

the former red zone is being 

transferred to Christchurch City 

Council, but that does not mean 

we intend to make decisions on 

the future of the land unilaterally,” 

she said. 

“As we take over ownership of 

the land and assume the decision-making 

powers, we want to 

take a co-governance approach. 

We want our partnership with 

Ngāi Tūāhuriri and the wider 

community to be at the centre of 

the decision-making process. 

Dalziel said the city council 

wanted to make the most of 

the opportunities presented by 

the regeneration of these areas 

and by honouring the late Evan 

Smith. 

“We want to honour the vision 

for the Ōtākaro Avon River Corridor 

that was championed by 

the late Evan Smith. To do that 

we need to work side-by-side 

with our communities, iwi, and 

the private sector.” 

Te Tira Kāhikuhiku is the 

transitional governance agency 

that has been making recommendations 

on transitional 

projects in the red zone. 

The group is made up of an 

independent chair, Chrissie 

PARTNERSHIP: 

There’s a chance 

to convert the 

red zone into a 

lasting legacy for 

the city. 

Williams, five community representatives, 

as well as iwi and 

community board representatives. 

The city council also adopted 

a new policy that outlines how it 

intends to deal with third-party 

proposals for use of red zone 

land that it owns. 

Under the policy, the city 

council’s head of parks will have 

delegated authority to grant 

leases to those seeking to use the 

land for less than 10 years for 

certain projects, such as temporary 

gardens. 

Requests for long-term leases 

(10 years or more), or for more 

significant projects, such as 

commercial ventures, will 

require consultation with the 

public and a decision by the full 

city council.

Program to help children with dyslexia 

A NEW computer programme 

at Linwood College has been 

launched to better support 

students with dyslexia towards 

their education. 

STEPSWEB is a specialised 

literacy program produced by 

The Learning Staircase designed 

to help students with dyslexia, or 

whose reading and writing are 

below expected levels. 

To help fund the technology 

required, The Ferrymead and 

Linwood-Woolston Rotary 

clubs donated $1100 towards the 

cause. 

Linwood College pupil Troy 

Thomson said he loves working 

with STEPSWEB, and his 

teachers report “tremendous 

development” in his schoolwork 

and confidence. 

“It’s cool and I use it for my 

homework,” said the year 8 

pupil. 

“You get to learn new stuff and 

all the activities are fun.” 

Tracey Jongens, the school’s 

special needs co-ordinator, said 

there were “excellent” results 

from those using the program 

and said the aim is to make it 

available to all year 7 and year 8 

students as funding allows. 

The STEPSWEB software 

guides learners through 

graduated levels, each of which 

CONFIDENCE: Linwood College special needs co-ordinator Tracey Jongens helps year 8 

pupil Troy Thomson navigate a new computer programme designed to support children 

with dyslexia. 

involves about 10 actions, such as 

word recognition, activities with 

words, phonemic awareness, 

spelling, sentence construction, 

joining half-words, and vocabulary 

building. 

Students can also access the 

activity-based program from 

home or at school. 

The programme is built on 

the various stages of learning. 

All work is scored and, as they 

complete each stage, students 

earn a gold, silver or bronze 

classification, and are awarded 

certificates. 

The two Rotary clubs have 

also gifted $1100 to help students 

struggling to pay for basic needs 

and extras. 

Sue Ingle, head of the school’s 

guidance department, said 

funds have already been used 

to supply many students with 

uniforms. 

“There was a case of a couple of 

brothers – quite a few boys in the 

family – taking turns in attending 

school as there was only one 

pair of unripped shorts between 

them,” she said. 

“A number of students have 

been able to access external, specialist 

counselling that would not 

otherwise have been available to 

them. 

“And twice, a student has come 

with notes from home asking for 

us to supply lunch as they were 

‘a bit short that week.’ With this 

extra funding, that was easy to 

address.” 

Ingle said the funds also 

allowed quite a few students 

to attend a Community 

Development Network camp and 

some money is being set aside to 

help with a year 8 school camp 

coming up in the near future.

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. 

Said Cr MacDonald: “In 

the current environment it’s 

clear business as usual is not 

appropriate and the council 

needs to look at how we enable 

this 12-month rates increase 

freeze to occur, it’s crucial for 

the economic confidence of our 

city.” 

Ms Dalziel said the last thing the council’s budget, which is 

the city council needed was for not entirely funded by rates, and 

someone to hi the panic button. the consequences that will flow
