Anna’s focus is providing
sanctuary for grandchildren
• 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.

Manaia meets cricket heroes at coin toss
CRICKET FAN Manaia Kereopa
said she was “sort of nervous, but
really excited” to meet the players
at the White Ferns v England one
day match at Hagley Oval.
Manaia, 10, took part in
the pre-match coin toss on
February 24 with captains Heather
Knight and Sophie Devine as
part of the ANZ coin toss competition.
Manaia, who attends Te Pā o
Rākaihautū school in Linwood,
won the opportunity to be an
ANZ coin toss kid and experience
standing side by side with the
captains as they decided what
team would bat and bowl.
Manaia said even though it was
nerve-wracking waiting to get on
the field with the captains she “felt
really good after.”
“I was excited once I got out
there in front of the big crowd”,
she said.
“My favourite part was getting
to meet all the players and get
their signatures on my T-shirt.”
Manaia was really happy that she
got to talk to her favourite player
Amy Satterthwaite and watch the
teams warm up for the game. She
likes watching cricket with her
family, and said: “I want to learn
how to play now.”
Said head of sponsorship at
ANZ Sue McGregor: “Manaia
was one of 23 young cricketers
and fans chosen to take part in
the pre-match custom this cricket
season.
“After such a tough year for the
country in 2020, it has been even
more apparent the important role
that sport and our sporting heroes
play to inspire our future generations.
“We are so pleased to be able to
continue creating these once in
a lifetime opportunities for our
future Blackcaps and White
Ferns. Getting to meet their
heroes is something we hope
will stay with them for years to
come.”
The coin toss experience is part
of ANZ’s long-standing support of
Kiwi cricketers.
Since 2009 ANZ has given
over $1 million to cricket players,
teams and clubs. In addition,
ANZ has donated $1 million
in grants to grass roots cricket
and netball clubs to help them
get back up and running after
Covid-19.
•Applications to win the
chance to take part in the
ANZ coin toss experience
are still open. Apply for
the experience or for an
ANZ cricket grant at www.

Support group is a safe place to vent
• From page 1
“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
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 greatgrandchildren.
Many grandparents initially
struggled financially when taking
on a grandchild as the transition
process took some time.
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
‘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.’
– Anna Clare
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
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.”

Manukura Kōrero
Mō tātou, ā, mō kā uri,
ā muri ake nei - For us and
our children after us
This week was a sombre week. Our
ākonga stepped up to commemorate
those who suffered and those who died
10 years ago today. We will forever
remember them!
They are with us, we are forever with
them. So many lives lost, so many
lives altered, so many lives challenged.
Haeata is the new dawn, born from
devastation and adversity we are tasked
with shaping a new future. We can only
do that together, not apart.
This week has not all been sad though as we celebrated ākonga success
at our Hui Whakanui Manukura/Assembly. Ākonga receiving their certificates
for displaying the Haeata disposition of Rangatiratanga.
Ko Haeata tātou! Bursting with pride just seeing these sweet kumara
being celebrated!!
Finally, I was so proud to see the
Mangopare seniors going on a walk up
the Bridle Path. Awesome team work
was shown, and our school values
and dispositions were expemplified by
our Future leaders and champions. So
proud!

2021 Student Board Representative
Hello I am Leonie and I am South African.
I love being at Haeata because we have proper relationships with
our kaiako, which means they know what makes us tick. I am excited
about being the Board of Trustees Student Representative because
I have an opportunity to make a change at Haeata, and be a part of
creating a school environment that is both challenging and exciting.
One of my goals is to make sure that the students have a voice and a
space they can come to school to not be judged or silenced for their
opinions. I am so excited to see what 2021 will bring!
Hospitality Pathway

Nicki Knier (Pictured) has
been busy in 2021 creating a
Hospitality Pathway for our
ākonga at Haeata Community
Campus. This pathway will train
our ākonga to be work ready
by the time they graduate from the course, and furnish
them with lifelong skills in the hospitality industry.
The course will highlight teamwork and working
independently, and provide them with real-world
experience catering for small and large numbers.
Haeata Community Campus has already experienced
the fruits of Nicki’s labour with her lovely ākonga, as
we have enjoyed the food they have created in our
commercial kitchen. Nicki Knier has an ambition to
enable our ākonga to have success in national
competitions with their new found culinary skills.
Here at Haeata we are so pleased to be partnering with
Aly Maclean Apparel to provide our beautiful ākonga
with school uniform. It has been so great to see all of
them in uniform this year, and we could not have done
it without the service and professionalism of Aly and
her team!
If you are still needing to order a uniform then you can do this on her website, and feel
free to ask them any questions about ordering uniform clothing for your ākonga.

PUPILS FROM Marshland
School got a adrenalin-pumped
start to the new school year last
week when they went on a four
day camp to the YMCA Wainui
Park Camp near Akaroa.
Kayaking, abseiling, high
ropes, low ropes, archery and
raft building were just some
of the activities, with pupils
choosing their own level of
difficulty.
Teacher Carolyn Davies said
the pupils often found they were
stronger or braver than they
thought. She said the camp was
a fantastic way for pupils to
learn and grow outside of the
learning hubs. The activities
helped them to push boundaries,
gain confidence and work
together as a team to achieve a
common goal.
Davies said the activities and
skills learnt will be foundations
for the year ahead.

The Brad Richards Building Sea2Sky
Challenge 2021 will boast a stellar line up
this year with the majority of New Zealands
olympic triathlon hopefuls heading to
Sumner on 14th March.
The annual Challenge offers an end of
summer test for the serious athlete as well
as those that just want to give it a try. The
sixth edition of the challenge has partnered
with local company Brad Richards Building
as this year’s principal race sponsor.
Director and Redcliffs resident Brad
Richards completed the 17km run last year
“we are so lucky to have such an incredible
run right on our door step. The section from
Godley Head back to the clocktower is
stunning but tough on the legs with all the
ups and downs”.
The 2021 event will see Olympic triathlon
hopefuls jostle for bragging rights, as well
as over $5000 prize purse. Hayden Wilde,
a rising star of world triathlon and potential
olympic medalist has confirmed his entry,
along with former world Under 23 years
champion Tayler Reid, top international Sam
Ward and local professional Saxon Morgan.
The women’s field will include former

Under 23 years World Champion Rebecca

Commonwealth Games relay medallist, as
well as highly regarded Ainsley Thorpe and
Sophie Corbidge.
The event was the brainchild of Sumner
resident and triathlon legend Dr John
Hellemans whose grand children are now
amongst the participants in the kids event,
“in the early days of triathlon it was all a
bit of an adventure, this event brings some
of that adventure back to a sport that has
become quite structured - it’s also great to
see all the kids involved”.
As well as the elite racing there are events
for all ages and abilities with a duathlon
option, 17km run, Junior racing and kids
Aquathon. One of the oldest competitors
and a regular on the Christchurch triathlon
scene, John Gordon, 81 years young will
also be out there competing.

Are you living in a tsunami zone?
Residents of Christchurch and Banks Peninsula
who live or work near waterways or the coast are
being encouraged this month to find out if they are in
a tsunami evacuation zone.
“In the past 18 months, the Civil Defence has
updated the tsunami evacuation zones to reflect new
tsunami modelling that Environment Canterbury,
in collaboration with the Christchurch, Selwyn and
Waimakariri councils, commissioned GNS to do for
Christchurch and Banks Peninsula.
“That modelling indicates significant damage could
be caused by flooding from a distant or regional
source tsunami. In some scenarios the modelling
shows that we could get flooding further inland than
previously thought.
“We are working with affected communities to help
guide them with their tsunami evacuation planning,
but I would really encourage everyone to go onto the
Council website and check whether their property or
their workplace is in a tsunami evacuation zone,’’ says
Rob Orchard, Christchurch City Council Head of
Civil Defence and Emergency Management.
The website has an interactive property search
function that allows you to see which evacuation
zone, if any, your property is in. It also has advice
about what steps you should take to prepare for an
evacuation.
In Christchurch and Banks Peninsula there are
three main evacuation zones – red, orange and
yellow.
The red tsunami evacuation zone is the area that
is most likely to be affected by a tsunami. It includes
estuaries, rivers, beaches, and harbours, where a
tsunami of any size could cause strong currents and
surges in the water.
The orange tsunami
evacuation zone covers
areas on land that could be
flooded in the event of a
large tsunami.
The yellow zone is an
area that is least likely to
be affected by tsunami but
could be flooded or isolated
in a very large tsunami.
“If you are in a tsunami
evacuation zone, it is
important that you find
out what you need to do in
the event of an evacuation
and start putting a plan
together,’’ Mr Orchard says.
New Brighton Health
Care amends price
structure due to
community response
In July last year, the New Brighton Residents Association
posted a story about the New Brighton Health Care in Union St,
which received their biggest response to date on their Facebook
site.
The post and many subsequent comments related mainly to the
clinic’s cost structure, particularly the full cost payable by those
who would normally be entitled to a discount via a Community
Services card.
The New Brighton Medical Centre has about 12,000 patients
and covers almost the entire suburb with a significant number of
elderly residents or those in the lower income bracket.
In the post the New Brighton Residents Association did not
believe the fee structure was fair.
Effective 1 March enrolled adult patients with Community
Service cards will be charged $19.50 (formerly $53 and those
aged 13-17 at $13 (previously $27). Hurrah, for listening and
taking action.

HOME & HEATING
Are you struggling
with the heat of
Summer or wanting
to get organised for
Winter?
Zone Control for your
Ducted heat pump.
Ducted heat pumps are a highly efficient
way to heat (or cool) your home. The
air from the heat pump is ducted to
several rooms or zones in your house.
Using a zone control system makes your
ducted heat pump even more efficient, by
specifying the amount of heat required
in each area, so not wasting energy to
overheat or overcool any room.
The AirTouch4 zone control system
from Smooth-Air takes ducted heat pump
air zoning to a whole new level of comfort
and energy efficiency.
AirTouch4 - The Ultimate Zone
Control
Have total control of your comfort zone:
AirTouch4 lets everyone enjoy a different
level of conditioned air in the room they
are in.
Save money on the power bill, without
compromising on comfort, by only
running the heating or cooling where
you need it with Smart Zoning. Plus with
runtime tracking, energy and airflow
management technology, you can enjoy
greater efficiency and savings from your
family’s ducted heat pump.
The AirTouch4 can also connect to
Google Home and Amazon Alexa.
Not every home is designed equal. Not
60
every room is either.
%
Temperatures can
often fluctuate from one room to the next
because of sunlight, room activity or other
factors.
With AirTouch4’s Individual
Temperature Control Technology (ITC),
the AirTouch monitors temperatures
and smartly adjusts airflow as needed
around your home with the aid of multiple
wireless temperature sensors instead of a
single sensor in one location. When some
rooms get too hot or cold, the AirTouch
will adjust airflow to maintain your desired
temperature, without wasting conditioned
air on rooms already comfortable.
Contact Smooth-Air on 0800
SMOOTH or sales@smooth-air.co.nz
for more information on the AirTouch4
zone control.
With the ever changing weather patterns,
heat pumps have the flexibility of being able
to heat and cool which is an advantage no
other appliance can offer. This represents
great value for your investment as you can
use it all year round. The team at Enviro
Master Ltd can help keep you cool this
Summer either at home or work. Enviro
Master supplies, installs and services all the
leading brands including Panasonic, Fujitsu,
Mitsubishi and Daikin. This means our team
can show you which system and brand will
best suit your needs.
With new regulations coming in for
Landlords to provide heating in rentals, now
is a great time to beat the 1st of July deadline.
Inadequate heating and ventilation can lead
to mould growth and dampness in your
property, leading to costlier maintenance
and an unhealthy living environment.
Providing a fixed heater with a higher heat
output and lower running costs, like a heat
pump, will enable your tenants to heat the
area effectively. Enviro Master are well
experienced with the Tenancy Services
software to ensure that you are meeting your
requirements.
It is important to remember, when
selecting an installer, the manufacturer’s
warranty does not cover the installation
and consumers could be responsible for any
repair or damage caused to the system due
to poor installation. Enviro Master’s ensures
correct installation, and a demonstration so
customers have an understanding on how it
will best meet their needs.
For a free in home consultation, call
Enviro Master on 366 0525 or visit our
showroom at 41A Shakespeare Rd,
Waltham, Christchurch.
