Flora and fauna flourishing in new wetland

upset over

• By Samantha Mythen 

GROWTH: The new wetland that has been developed in Quaifes Rd. 

NATIVE FLORA and fauna 

are starting to flourish in a new 

wetland area in Halswell. 

The artificial wetland has 

been created at Quaifes Rd 

to capture and naturally filter 

stormwater before it flows into 

Lake Ellesmere via the Halswell 

River. 

It’s one of several new wetland 

areas that the city council has 

constructed to manage stormwater 

and improve the quality of water 

flowing into our rivers. 

“These new wetland areas act 

as storage basins in large rain 

events and will lessen the risk of 

our rivers flooding,’’ city council 

head of three waters and waste 

Helen Beaumont said. 

“They also bring

environmental and recreational 

benefits. They naturally filter 

the stormwater before it enters 

our waterways and provide new 

habitats for native flora and 

fauna.

BARNETT PARK users are 

disappointed three large rocks 

that tumbled onto the park from 

Clifton Hill during the February 

22, 2011 earthquake have been 

removed. 

The rocks have been taken to 

the Te Pae convention centre by 

Ōtākaro Ltd, the Government 

agency responsible for anchor 

projects in the central city. They 

will be used as part of the landscaping. 

The city council said yesterday it 

gave permission for Ōtākaro Ltd 

to remove the rocks. 

“The community was not 

consulted over their removal, 

however, their presence in Barnett 

Park was only temporary – they 

were originally put in a pile 

here by the council following 

the earthquakes,” a city council 

spokesperson said. 

Elsa Truscott, who walks 

dogs in Barnett Park, said the 

community should have been 

consulted before the rocks were 

taken.

Request to keep dogs 

on a lead in wetland 

• From page 1 

“We’ve planted around 60,000 

native plants in the new Quaifes 

Rd wetland and it’s 

attracting lots of native 

birds, including a nesting 

pair of pied stilts. 

There’s lots of tall grass 

and a rocky area too, so 

it is a good habitat for 

lizards. 

“It is a great place 

to explore and we 

encourage people to 

visit and take a walk through the 

wetland. If you are bringing a 

dog with you, please keep it on a 

Helen 

Beaumont 

leash because we don’t want dogs 

disturbing the nesting birds or 

chicks. 

“The stormwater in 

the wetland might also 

contain pollutants and potentially 

toxic algae so we 

do advise that people and 

pets avoid contact with the 

water,’’ Ms Beaumont says. 

“Because this is a 

working wetland, the 

grassy areas will grow 

long at times. There are 

also no public toilets so please 

bear that in mind if you are 

planning a visit.’’ 

Natural playground for children gone 

• From page 1 

“They were quite a cool feature 

in a park that is quite empty. 

They were also a good memory 

keeper of the Christchurch 

earthquakes,” she said. 

The rocks had become a natural 

playground for children to 

climb on. 

People also liked to have their 

photo taken while posing on the 

rocks. 

Mt Pleasant resident Amanda 

Rudkin lived on Clifton Hill 

before the earthquake still regularly 

visits the park with her two 

children, Quinn and Ava. 

“The rocks are an iconic part 

of the community,” she said. 

“They weren’t just rocks to 

the locals, they were part of 

our earthquake story and the 

children loved them for climbing 

so they had an connection 

too. It was great for kids to have 

natural resources to climb.” 

Rudkin said Ava were “quite 

upset” when they watched the 

rocks being loaded onto a truck 

on Monday.

170 years of Prep School Excellence 

Educational matters have 

been much in the news at the 

start of the school year. At St 

Michael’s, we are delighted 

that history teaching has finally 

been acknowledged as essential 

for developing well-informed, 

articulate Kiwi citizens. 

For at St Michael’s, history 

is our foundation. As New 

Zealand’s oldest prep school, 

for 170 years we have educated 

and nurtured the visionaries and 

dreamers who have built our 

city and country, shaping our 

history and future. 

At St Michael’s, our 

young pupils have limitless 

potential to lead exciting and 

generous lives, and we have 

the responsibility to educate 

and inspire them, to encourage 

every child to flourish in 

mind, body and spirit. 

St Michael’s is a prep school 

for girls and boys in Years 

1-8. ‘Prep’ as in a preparation 

for secondary school, and a 

foundation for a fine life. For 

at the heart of St Michael’s 

are the essential values of 

Christian faith and good global 

citizenship: respect, integrity, 

faith, hope and love. 

Our small co-ed classes and 

specialist teachers ensure that 

each child is an individual, 

well known by staff and fellow 

pupils alike. Every child has a 

desk and chair, locker and peg 

– their own space in which to 

establish their own sense of 

place and identity. 

Traditional foundations 

in English and Mathematics 

are assured at St Michael’s. 

The mechanics of English – 

punctuation, grammar, spelling, 

vocabulary and sentence 

construction – are taught, 

practised and tested. Learning 

to read develops into reading 

to learn, and the delights of 

children’s literature, poetry 

and drama. Simple sentences 

become finely crafted creative 

writing, accounts and studies. 

Maths teaching has been 

in the media firing line again 

recently as our national results 

continue to slide against key 

international markers. At St 

Michael’s, we keep it simple 

and teach proper, ‘good, old 

fashioned’ maths. Our pupils 

are taught and have to learn 

basic facts, times tables and 

essential algorithm methods. 

We don’t bundle anything! Our 

parents can help their children 

with their maths homework, 

because they recognise it! 

This academic rigour then 

underpins our wider curriculums 

in History, Geography and 

Science. Spanish and, for the 

older pupils, Latin, offer the 

enrichment of learning another 

language and about another 

culture. IT literacy is taught, 

not assumed, and computer use 

is measured. We like teaching 

and talking to our pupils! 

A prep education offers 

balance. St Michael’s cultural 

and sports’ programmes 

further develop each child’s 

foundation, as creativity and 

problem-solving come in many 

forms. Specialist art and music 

classes are enjoyed weekly. 

Many pupils participate in 

individual instrumental, singing 

or speech & drama lessons with 

one of our ten itinerant staff. 

Our several choirs, Stage Band 

and Orchestra offer key early 

steps in group performance. 

Our senior programme, 

Parare, advances our Year 7&8 

education outside the box, from 

financial literacy to outdoor ed, 

leadership challenges to new 

sports, citizenship and civics to 

art and technologies. 

Nestled as we are on the 

banks of the Avon, opposite 

the Riverside Farmers’ Market, 

ST MICHAEL’S ALUMNI 

To help us celebrate 170 years of St 

Michael’s Prep School excellence at the 

heart of our city, alumni and former staff 

are warmly invited to contact us so we can 

share our anniversary plans with you. 

alumni@saintmichaels.co.nz 

St Michael’s extended campus 

is spectacular: the art gallery, 

museum, library, theatres and 

Hagley Park are frequent haunts 

only minutes away. 

Many of our parents work 

in the thriving city centre, and 

Lincoln and Riccarton Road 

hubs, but they live city-wide. 

They comment on the comfort 

of knowing their children are in 

school nearby and the benefits 

of popping over for an hour to 

catch a performance or watch a 

race. 

With the central bus exchange 

only a block away, senior 

children arrive from all corners 

of the city. 

An independent school 

education is a precious gift 

and it doesn’t have to break the 

bank. If you think a St Michael’s 

education would suit your 

child, you are warmly welcome 

to discover for yourself our 

purposeful, wholehearted and 

inclusive prep school. 

Our next Open Day is coming 

up, on Wednesday 3 March. 

Please pop in during the day

Focus on providing sanctuary for 

• By Bea Gooding 

ANNA CLARE’S plans to 

reclaim independence following 

a lifetime of raising her own 

children was turned on its head 

the moment she realised she had 

to do it all over again. 

Her two grandchildren living 

in an unstable home environment 

involving drugs, alcohol 

and violence left Clare with no 

choice but to provide a permanent 

sanctuary for them. 

More than a decade later she 

channels her own unique experiences 

in her role as support 

group co-ordinator in Christchurch 

for the Grandparents Raising 

Grandchildren Trust NZ. 

Clare was in her 50s when she 

took over guardianship of her 

teenage granddaughter. 

“I think the hardest part is 

when you get a grandchild, it’s 

at a time of your life when you’re 

becoming free. You’ve got a bit 

more disposable income, you’ve 

got friends who don’t have 

children, so you go out and do 

things with them, like dinners or 

movies,” she said. 

“But suddenly we’re back in 

the situation where you’ve got 

babysitters, you can’t do things 

spontaneously. You spend a lot 

of your time trying to organise 

therapy, supporting a return to 

school, going to court meetings 

or researching what help is available. 

“Leaving them [at home] is 

difficult, for a start, especially 

when you’re trying to build 

trust.” 

About 95 per cent of grandparents 

accessing support from 

the trust took grandchildren into 

their care as a result of trauma, 

often encountering issues they 

never dealt with before. 

Although they had different 

stories to tell, common factors 

included mental illness and substance 

abuse. 

“In our case, it was a developing 

situation over the years 

primarily with drugs, alcohol 

and violence in the home,” Clare 

said. 

The transition of raising her

SLOAN 

granddaughter full-time was 

made easier by the fact Clare had 

regular contact with her prior to 

moving in. 

Like many families, she was 

against the alternative of foster 

care at the hands of Oranga 

Tamariki. 

But it was when she took in 

her grandson, years after her 

granddaughter, where things 

were “a lot harder the second 

time around,” especially when he 

started becoming violent. 

“It changes grandparents’ lives 

significantly. You’ve got children 

who are traumatised when they 

come into your care. It takes a 

lot of time, energy and money,” 

she said. 

“I was in a different headspace 

when I took on my grandson, I 

was 10 years older, I’d had less 

contact with him and he’d had 

some real problems. He’s come a 

long way since then.” 

The GRG trust provides support 

services to grandparents 

across the country who raise 

their grandchildren on a fulltime 

basis. 

This is carried out in the form 

of counselling sessions, support 

groups, education, training, 

financial and legal support and 

referrals to relevant agencies and 

organisations. 

Membership is diverse both 

ethnically and socio-economically, 

ranging in age from 

early 40s to 90s. Sometimes, this 

includes great-grandparents raising 

great-grandchildren. 

Many grandparents initially 

struggled financially when 

taking on a grandchild as the 

transition process took some 

time.

is very quiet (46 dBA). So, there’s no need to employ a kitchen hand. For now, at least.

grandchildren 

Many did not know they were 

entitled to financial support 

such as the Unsupported Child 

Benefit. 

Advocating for families and 

being able to help change their 

lives was rewarding, Clare said, 

knowing what it felt like herself. 

Over the years, the trust has 

seen demand increase. 

“I think there’s a lot of pressure 

on young families. I think there’s 

a lot more pressure on families 

than there used to be, there’s a 

lot more access to drugs, more 

poverty,” said Clare. 

“And with that comes a lack of 

hope.” 

Across the country, the 

trust supports more than 5900 

grandparents and families, 

with about 230 families in 

Christchurch alone. They either 

come voluntarily or are referred 

by another organisation. 

The initial stage of talking to 

grandparents was always difficult 

for Clare, particularly when they 

shared feelings of “parental guilt.” 

“Not only do you have the 

struggle of having to look after 

your own grandchild who’s 

traumatised, but the fact that it’s 

your son or daughter letting the 

family down.” 

The biggest value in a local 

support group is that it is a safe

north side co-ordinator Donna Drummond. 

place to vent with people who 

understood. 

“It could be difficulties dealing 

with WINZ, Oranga Tamariki, 

the court system, or the child 

itself. 

“Contact with the parents can 

also actually be a huge fear for 

the grandparents because they 

don’t know what the child’s 

going back into when they visit.” 

Clare has been involved 

with the trust ever since her 

granddaughter came to live with 

her permanently. 

A few support group meetings 

over the years eventually led 

to a decision to establish a 

Christchurch group after seeing 

how much the trust had an 

impact on her own life. 

Before she found her calling 

in Christchurch, she lived in 

Auckland on and off along with 

a five-year stint in the United 

States. 

Family is constantly at the 

forefront of her mind, whether 

it is at the trust or in her own 

time with her two children and 

grandchildren. 

Aside from her work at the 

trust, she was a part-time 

support worker for a young 

person with autism. 

“It’s all about family really, 

there’s not much time for 

anything else.” 

ESTUARY MATTERS 

The Avon-Heathcote Estuary Ihutai Trust is 

a non-profit organisation formed to protect 

one of New Zealand’s most important coastal 

wetlands. Each week, board members will 

discuss matters regarding the estuary, its rich 

history and what makes it unique. This week 

Vicky Southworth writes about Estuary Fest 

that will be held on February 27. 

Festival to celebrate 

the estuary’s beauty 

WHETHER CHOPPY water 

and dark brooding sky, or mirror 

smooth reflecting the bright 

blue of a summer’s morning, 

looking across the estuary to the 

mountains is a spectacular scene. 

I joined the Estuary Trust as 

the Environment Canterbury 

councillor representative just over 

a year ago. I have come to see the 

estuary as so much more than a 

picture-perfect landscape; it is 

home to many species, of which 

the birds are the most visible. 

Riding my bike along the 

Coastal Pathway, I can now name 

the birds I see, and know something 

about them. 

There’s the sharply dressed pied 

oystercatchers with red bill and 

crisp black and white attire – they 

take their time picking through 

the exposed shellfish beds at low 

tide. 

The godwits in brown blend 

in but are worth a closer look for 

their unfeasibly long beaks. I love 

how the cormorants congregate; 

wings outstretched soaking up the 

sun after diving for fish. 

However, my favourite is the 

royal spoonbill which, in spite of 

its pure white feathers, reminds 

me of a bulldozer, head down 

trundling through the muddy 

shallows to feed. 

Go along to the annual Estuary 

Fest to celebrate the beauty of 

everything estuary; its wildlife, its 

beauty and the recreational opportunities 

provides. 

The free event will be held 

on February 27, 1-5pm, 

McCormacks Bay Reserve (turn 

right just before the causeway). 

There will be ample and 

controlled parking space, live 

music, pony rides, food stalls, 

children activities, native plants 

sale, several stalls providing you 

with information on everything 

estuary and so much more.

HEALTH & AWARENESS 

Joint pain: Do I have arthritis or 

could it be mainly my muscles? 

The team at Physical Sense in Sydenham 

sees clients with a range of symptoms but 

many of their middle-aged and senior clients 

visit complaining of pain in one of their joints. 

Physiotherapist Ietje van Stolk suggests 

that a major part of the pain could be due 

to muscle pain rather than simply arthritis. 

“Even if an x-ray shows arthritis, the reason 

for the pain may be the muscles around 

the joint,” she explains. The images show 

how a muscle knot (the crosses) in a back 

muscle can give hip pain (aches and pain 

are the red areas in the drawings), a knot 

in a muscle on the back of the shoulder 

blade can give a deep pain in the front of 

the shoulder and a muscle knot all the way 

near the groin can give an ache in the knee 

(especially at night in bed). 

Ietje recalls one case where an 89 year 

old client with severe arthritis who walked 

with a stick, told her, “I will end up in 

a wheelchair, I cannot put any weight 

through my right leg due to pain in my hip 

and buttock”. “Within 4 treatments, she 

was walking with her stick but without the 

severe pain,” says Ietje. “The arthritis was 

one of the factors that made her muscles 

spasm but the other was that older people 

move less and the flexed position the hip 

is in when we sit is particularly bad for 

the hip.” Ietje is happy with the fact that 

although the client was 89 and could have 

been “given up on” or told to live with the 

pain, she made a difference to her health 

and wellbeing. 

The same lack of movement can be the 

reason for your knee pain or your shoulder 

pain and the same few treatments could 

make a huge difference for you. 

At Physical Sense, hands-on techniques 

(massage and triggerpoint deactivation 

techniques) are used to release the muscles. 

The client also gets a home exercise 

program designed to mobilize and stretch 

the joint, strengthen the important core 

muscles and increase general strength and 

SHOULDER 

PAIN 

KNEE PAIN 

(the crosses are the areas of the muscle spasms, the red areas is where the pain is felt) 

balance. They teach a movement sequence 

that stretches the joint in all directions 

whilst the client is able to lie safely on their 

bed, perfect for older or less mobile clients. 

In many cases having the muscles 

released and being taught how to maintain 

it, is enough to stay on top of the problem. 

HIP PAIN 

If severe arthritis is the underlying cause, 

some maintenance therapy may be 

necessary, but that is often more affordable 

and, for older patients, better tolerated 

than surgery. After only one treatment you 

should know that it will work for you. Call 

and only pay $50 on that treament. 

Physical Sense Gym and Physio is located at 300 Colombo Street, Sydenham. The Blue Line Bus stops in front of the 

door and there is ample parking. To enquire about joint pain treatment, phone 377-2577 or visit www.triggerpoints.co.nz 

When we call, hundreds 

of Kiwi businesses answer.

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
