Thursday <strong>April</strong> 8 <strong>2021</strong> 3<br />

Four-week delay to completion<br />

of Woolston Village upgrade<br />

BROUGHAM ST motorists may<br />

WORK ON the multi-million<br />

dollar upgrade of Woolston<br />

Village has been extended for<br />

four weeks, with contractors<br />

now expected to finish at the<br />

end of this month.<br />

City council planning and<br />

delivery manager Lynette Ellis<br />

said the streetscape project has<br />

experienced delays due to the<br />

complex nature of the work.<br />

The upgrades include installing<br />

new pedestrian crossings,<br />

mini plazas, wider footpaths,<br />

cycle lanes, and landscaping,<br />

which were meant to be completed<br />

by the end of last month.<br />

“Unfortunately, when you’re<br />

working underneath the ground<br />

unexpected things happen or<br />

things don’t go to plan. As a result,<br />

our contractor’s work programme<br />

has progressed more<br />

slowly than originally planned,”<br />

said Ellis.<br />

“This is a fairly complex<br />

project involving the renewal of<br />

100-year-old wastewater pipes<br />

and working around a network<br />

of underground services. The<br />

contractor has also had to contend<br />

with significant concrete<br />

foundations and steel tram<br />

UNEXPECTED: The Woolston Village upgrades will now take one month longer than<br />

planned.<br />

PHOTO: NEWSLINE ​<br />

tracks that date back to the days<br />

when trams rattled along Ferry<br />

Rd towards Sumner.’’<br />

The project is currently on<br />

track to finish at the end of this<br />

month, instead of March as<br />

originally indicated.<br />

The team will also complete<br />

the bulk of the planting and<br />

landscaping work during the<br />

winter months.<br />

“We know parts of this project<br />

have been noisy and disruptive<br />

and want to thank the Woolston<br />

community for their patience<br />

and understanding as we upgrade<br />

the Village centre,’’ Ellis<br />

said<br />

“Woolston’s vibrant business<br />

centre is open for business, so I<br />

encourage people to keep shopping<br />

locally and support your<br />

community.<br />

“On-street parking on Ferry<br />

Rd isn’t available right now,<br />

but there’s lots of alternative<br />

parking around the village. It<br />

might mean a bit of a walk, but<br />

Woolston businesses would love<br />

to see you.”<br />

Pipe repairs<br />

likely to<br />

disrupt traffic<br />

experience delays over the coming<br />

months as work is carried out<br />

to replace an ageing stormwater<br />

pipe underneath the Barrie St<br />

intersection.<br />

The brick barrel pipe dates back<br />

to 1910 and has reached the end of<br />

its life.<br />

“The work will be carried out<br />

over the next two to three months<br />

and will be done in stages to reduce<br />

the disruption to traffic,’’ said city<br />

council stormwater and waterways<br />

programme manager Keith Davison.<br />

“While the work is carried<br />

out, we will be maintaining two<br />

lanes of traffic in each direction<br />

on Brougham St during the day.<br />

However, there will be a speed reduction<br />

in place and Barrie St and<br />

James K Baxter Pl may be closed at<br />

times.”<br />

Crews will be working at night<br />

as Brougham St will be reduced to<br />

one lane.<br />

“Unfortunately the night work<br />

might disturb residents living<br />

nearby, but the crews will be<br />

working to get the noisy part of the<br />

work done as early as possible in<br />

their shift to keep the disruption to<br />

a minimum.”<br />

Gulf Wars<br />

How We Kept The Cup<br />

by richard Gladwell<br />

Gulf Wars is a pictorially driven celebration of Emirates Team New Zealand’s<br />

America’s Cup win in Auckland <strong>2021</strong>, written from an on the water perspective<br />

by one of the world’s most influential America’s Cup photo-journalists,<br />

Richard Gladwell.<br />

Richard Gladwell is an international sailing journalist and photographer who<br />

lives in New Zealand. He began sailing when he was ten years old and first<br />

wrote about the America’s Cup five years later. A Kiwi representative sailor,<br />

he competed internationally in dinghies and keelboats for 12 years, sailing<br />

with and against some of the current senior members of Emirates Team New<br />

Zealand. He has covered the America’s Cup and Team New Zealand in its<br />

various renditions for the past 35 years.<br />

Between Five Eyes<br />

50 years of Intelligence Sharing<br />

by Anthony r. Wells<br />

UK/US intelligence and the wider Five Eyes community of Canada, Australia and New<br />

Zealand is primarily about one main thing: Relationships. In this remarkable book,<br />

Anthony Wells charts fifty years of change, turmoil, intense challenges, successes and<br />

failures, and never-ending abiding Five Eyes relationships. He traces the development<br />

of institutions that he firmly believes have sustained, and indeed may have saved,<br />

Western democracies and their allies from those ill disposed to the value system and<br />

culture of our nations. More than a chronology of the UK/US intelligence community<br />

during this fifty-year period, it is also a personal insight into key relationships and the<br />

abiding strength of the United States and the United Kingdom and its Five Eyes allies<br />

relationships. The author is the only living person to have worked for British Intelligence<br />

as a British citizen and US Intelligence as a US citizen. He was a fully trained and<br />

accredited security officer for two US intelligence organizations, and used his own<br />

extensive unclassified collection of papers, personal notes and diaries, as well as his<br />

family library for source material to create this book.<br />

A Nurse’s Story<br />

by Louise Curtis with Sarah Johnson<br />

Moving, honest and inspiring – this is a nurse’s true story of life in a busy A&E department<br />

during the Covid-19 crisis.<br />

Working in A&E is a challenging job but nurse Louise Curtis loves it. She was newly<br />

qualified as an advanced clinical practitioner, responsible for life or death decisions<br />

about the patients she saw, when the unthinkable happened and the country was hit by<br />

the Covid-19 pandemic. The stress on the NHS was huge and for the first time in her<br />

life, the job was going to take a toll on Louise herself.<br />

In A Nurse’s Story she describes what happened next, as the trickle of Covid patients<br />

became a flood. And just as tragically, staff in A&E were faced with the effects of lockdown<br />

on society. They worried about their regulars, now missing, and saw an increase in<br />

domestic abuse victims and suicide attempts as loneliness hit people hard. By turns<br />

heartbreaking and heartwarming, this book shines a light on the compassion and<br />

dedication of hospital staff during such dark times.<br />

The Auschwitz Photographer<br />

Based on the true story of Wilhelm Brasse<br />

by Luca Crippa and Maurizio Onnis<br />

When Germany invaded Wilhelm Brasse’s native Poland in 1939, he was asked to swear<br />

allegiance to Hitler and join the Wehrmacht. He refused. He was deported to Auschwitz<br />

concentration camp as political prisoner number 3444. A trained portrait photographer,<br />

he was ordered by the SS to record the inner workings of the camp. He began by taking<br />

identification photographs of the prisoners as they entered the camp, went on to capture<br />

the criminal medical experiments of Josef Mengele, and also recorded executions.<br />

Between 1940 and 1945, Brasse took around 50,000 photographs of the horror around<br />

him. He took them because he had no choice.<br />

Eventually, Brasse’s conscience wouldn’t allow him to hide behind his camera. First he risked<br />

his life by joining the camp’s Resistance movement, faking documents for prisoners, trying<br />

to smuggle images to the outside world to reveal what was happening. Then, when Soviet<br />

troops finally advanced on the camp to liberate it, Brasse refused SS orders to destroy his<br />

photographs. ‘Because the world must know,’ he said.<br />

Crusade On!<br />

Celebrating 25 years Of The Crusaders<br />

By Matt McIlraith<br />

The Crusaders are not just another sports team. Out of a modest beginning grew the<br />

most formidable professional club entity rugby has ever seen. Yet sustained on-field<br />

excellence is just part of the story of a team that succeeded by living its stated ethos of<br />

hard work, the embracement of diversity, and a commitment to represent its people with<br />

pride and humility. Join the crusade as Matt McILraith takes you inside the club’s first<br />

25-years, dissecting the key moments, the successes and the rare failures, complete with<br />

season analysis, biographies of all 245 players, and the five head coaches, as well as<br />

statistics from all 370 games the team played. A 360-degree portrait, Crusade On also<br />

introduces some of the larger-than-life personalities, from within the team and off the<br />

field, all of whom helped to make the Crusaders what they are. The way the Crusaders<br />

accomplished their success, with no one person more important than any other, and<br />

the enduring culture they created to sustain it, is an example of continued achievement<br />

that is as relevant for the boardroom as it is for the sporting arena. On-going success in<br />

any pursuit is not achieved by accident. This is why the Crusaders’ story is so important.<br />

Helping cats live out their nine lives<br />

• By Bea Gooding<br />

JOYCE LATHAM never grew up<br />

with a pet.<br />

But when a furry feline invited<br />

itself into her family home one<br />

day her relationship with cats<br />

changed forever.<br />

Now, the president of the Cats<br />

Protection League Canterbury is<br />

the proud owner of six cats, most<br />

of whom have special needs.<br />

And for the past 13 years, she<br />

has been on a mission to save as<br />

many cats in the city as possible.<br />

“My family didn’t have cats,<br />

but a cat walked in once and<br />

from there, I became very much<br />

a cat person,’’ said the Bryndwr<br />

resident.<br />

It was not difficult to foster<br />

her own felines, she said, having<br />

plenty of experience running a<br />

cattery herself with usually 40 to<br />

50 cats at a time.<br />

The league rescue, rehabilitate<br />

and rehome stray and<br />

abandoned cats, and provide assistance<br />

to those who could not<br />

afford to desex their cats through<br />

its Feline Fix programme.<br />

Desexing your cat, particularly<br />

tomcats, was crucial to help reduce<br />

the rate of feline AIDS and<br />

decrease the number of kittens<br />

being brought into places like the<br />

league.<br />

About 50 volunteers came in<br />

home.<br />

once a week to help out in the<br />

cattery, office and shop, as well<br />

as about four managers who<br />

worked there regularly.<br />

They also often found new<br />

homes for cats that could no<br />

longer be looked after, such as an<br />

owner who was moving into a<br />

retirement home.<br />

Last year, the league rehomed<br />

535 cats and kittens.<br />

But it did not stop there – the<br />

protection league provides emergency<br />

cat food assistance and for<br />

unexpected vet bills as well.<br />

“Sometimes their own cats<br />

have had kittens and we do take<br />

them in when approached to<br />

help rehome them,” Latham said.<br />

“There are enough cats in<br />

Christchurch and Canterbury<br />

to go well around all of the organisations,<br />

we’ve actually got a<br />

waiting list.”<br />

Its second-hand shop in Linwood<br />

was also a vital part of the<br />

fundraising efforts, especially<br />

with no government funding.<br />

All store proceeds went towards<br />

work to help the felines of<br />

Canterbury.<br />

When she is not reading or<br />

gardening at home, Latham<br />

volunteers her time feeding the<br />

cats and acts as the matchmaker<br />

when facilitating the rehoming<br />

process.<br />

After leaving a government<br />

office job, she decided to dedicate<br />

most of her energy to the league<br />

and has done so since 2007.<br />

“I like to match appropriate<br />

cats to people with cats that suit<br />

them,” she said.<br />

“Some of them are a little older<br />

or have special needs and need<br />

medication, but we just talk with<br />

people about what the cats are<br />

like; their personalities.”<br />

With so many success stories,<br />

it was hard for Latham to pick<br />

a particular instance that impacted<br />

her the most.<br />

But on the protection league’s<br />

website, there were endless pages<br />

of updates and photos from<br />

owners on how their little furry<br />

friend was getting along in their<br />

new forever home.<br />

There was one case where a lost<br />

cat was brought into the cattery<br />

and eventually reunited with its<br />

owner after four years thanks to<br />

its microchip.<br />

Said Latham: “It’s why all of<br />

us volunteer. When people give<br />

feedback and say how the cats<br />

have settled down, how much<br />

they love them, it’s a constant<br />

reward to know you’ve done a really<br />

good job of helping to match<br />

them up.<br />

“It’s rewarding to know these<br />

cats have had a second chance<br />

in life and they’ve gone to really<br />

loving homes.”<br />

But there was always a downside.<br />

Even though the league was<br />

sheltered from tending to abused<br />

or injured animals due to the<br />

statutory role the SPCA played,<br />

it was impossible to save them<br />

all.<br />

During the Covid-19 level 4<br />

lockdown, things were made<br />

worse when they were unable to<br />

rehome any cats.<br />

But rest assured, the cats that<br />

do need homes end up finding<br />

one, even if it takes a couple of<br />

years.<br />

“Cats are being surrendered to<br />

us from homes, so we don’t see<br />

the neglect and abuse – that’s the<br />

SPCA’s role,” Latham said.<br />

“The downside is knowing that<br />

you can’t save every single cat<br />

out there who don’t have homes<br />

and aren’t desexed, therefore are<br />

having kittens after kittens.<br />

“But we save what we can and<br />

focus on the ones we do save,<br />

and that’s the main thing.”<br />

School Update<br />

Manukura Kōrero<br />

He maurea kai whiria!<br />

Ignore small matters and direct effort toward important projects<br />

Nā Whaea Mish.<br />

Hākui Raewyn, Matua Antonio<br />

We are approaching the end of Term 1 and it has been a busy<br />

and exciting time for us as a kura. I want to congratulate our<br />

akonga on their achievements this term and their commitment<br />

to study and mahi. Our akonaga’s achievements next term are<br />

very closely linked to their efforts this term and their results<br />

at the end of the year are the culmination of four terms of<br />

their commitment and hard work!<br />

I would like to share with you my message to akonga at our<br />

recent senior assembly. There is a saying,”it takes a village to<br />

raise a child.” We are the village and our akonga are being<br />

raised by us collectively. I am proud to be part of that journey.<br />

Tēnā koutou, tēnā koutou, nga manaakitanga ki a tātou katoa!<br />

Term one has been a busy 11 weeks for us all, and many of you have worked hard and as a result<br />

many of you have achieved the goals you set for yourself way back in February. Well done!<br />

As a contributor at Haeata you understand what it means to be responsible for your own actions.<br />

Responsibility means you can be called to account for your actions. It means that you are liable,<br />

accountable and answerable for the things you do and say.<br />

We live in a community where you have rights and we have talked about these all term. We have<br />

also talked about the fact that for every right you enjoy there is a corresponding responsibility.<br />

Your rights:<br />

I want you to take a moment to think about what an amazing country you live in. We are clean,<br />

green and free. We are COVID-19 Free. We are not at war, we do not have to fear that on the<br />

way to school we will be shot at by snipers, we do not have to fear that our buses will be bombed<br />

as we travel to school, we do not have to fear that we may be the victims of a suicide bombing if we<br />

go out to dinner in a restaurant or a movie. This is the reality for many young people your age in<br />

countries around the world.<br />

We all accept that our lifestyle is something we wish to preserve, but what we don’t think about so<br />

much is that it is our responsibility to ensure that it is preserved. That responsibility starts here at<br />

school. This school’s focus is to provide an education that will equip you to live and contribute to<br />

our society in the 21st century.<br />

Here you learn that it is your responsibility to look after each other, to stick up for each other and<br />

to be supportive of the dreams and aspirations of others. It is your responsibility to work hard, take<br />

every opportunity and be the very best you can be.<br />

When you look around this school if you see things that are wrong – like bullying, theft, dishonesty,<br />

confrontation it is your responsibility to speak out and be proactive in stopping such behaviour. It is<br />

your responsibility to be part of the solution not part of the problem.<br />

If you see students getting or having a hard time you have a responsibility to stick up for them, to<br />

ensure that the weakest and most vulnerable of us are protected. Never is it appropriate to stand<br />

back and say “it’s got nothing to do with me”. Be part of the solution NOT part of the problem!!<br />

As a contributor you need to ensure you keep the main thing, the main thing. And what is the main<br />

thing? So whanau, ‘let’s celebrate our akonga’s success! We all have a part to play in that. Let’s own<br />

that as a village! As always, it is a privilege to serve this village!<br />

Like a supernatural being, Toi, we acknowledge you.<br />

The heart quickens at your call. Your heart gladdens the spirit, your spirit<br />

releases the voice, your voice opens the mind, the mind weaves the words,<br />

weaving the words carves the inherited treasures. Inspired by your image sound<br />

resonates, performance thrives, the many faces of imagery captures the eye.<br />

Linked by a soaring voice, fix your eyes on the people. From traditions etched in<br />

the future let your breath be felt. Ignite imagination! Let the mind create beyond<br />

what is seen, so that the arts that inspire continue to do so. Let everyone know<br />

that the arts celebrate the present and create the future On Sunday we had the<br />

first practice for the kapa haka secondary regional competition.<br />

Our Haeata rangatahi have combined forces with Linwood College, Christchurch<br />

Boys High, Christchurch Girls High, St Thomas and Cashmere. Our name is<br />

Kimihia te Matauranga and what a team! We started the day with whanaungatanga.<br />

Creating and nurturing relationships is an essential part of building a<br />

successful competitive team. We played various games and started the process<br />

of getting to know each other, the laughter reverberated through the hall!<br />

Kapa haka is a powerful medium of Māori identity, culture, and pride. It plays<br />

a huge role in the revitalisation of the Māori language and tikanga. It enhances<br />

positive well-being of our ākonga by encouraging a sense of belonging, providing<br />

a safe space in which to practice te reo me ōna tikanga, whilst reinforcing social<br />

collaboration and cohesion.<br />

Our ākonga have committed their weekends over to practices over the coming<br />

months. We look forward to watching our rangatahi grow as a cohesive unit,<br />

Kia kaha, kia toa, kia manawanui.<br />

creation story of Ngāi Tahu.<br />

As a kura, we were very lucky to receive a number of tickets to attend the performance Tūmahana today at the<br />

town hall. This was a bilingual performance about the creation story of Ngāi Tahu.<br />

Our very talented Kōmanawa māmā and ex Haeata kaiako, Juanita Hepi, was the creative director, and her equally<br />

talented son and current Haeata ākonga, Manu Smith-Hepi, had a starring role. The show combined toi Māori,<br />

circus, theatre, Taonga Pūoro, and the Christchurch Symphony Orchestra. Born of Māku and Māhoranuiātea, the<br />

Sky Father Rakinui had many unions and many children.<br />

One day as he was courting Earth Mother Papatūānuku, the Sea God Takaroa arrived to find Rakinui and Papatūānuku<br />

together. Jealous, Takaroa challenged Rakinui to fight and eventually overcame him. As Rakinui fell on his<br />

wife Papatūānuku, their children became sick from the lack of light and space.<br />

Rakinui told his son Tāne to separate him from their mother Papatūānuku so that they may live healthy lives. Tane<br />

reluctantly separated his parents with the help of his siblings. As the world of light came to be, Tāne realised that<br />

his father was naked in the night. He sets out on a journey to find adornment for him.<br />

The production was enthralling from beginning to end.<br />

The audience (myself included) screamed and clapped in delight throughout the entire performance! When the<br />

cast and crew came on stage to take a bow, Kōmanawa stood to do a haka, Tēnei te ruru, as a show of gratitude.<br />

We finished the day with a kai and a play and Tākaro ā Poi.<br />

HEALTH & AWARENESS<br />

Joint pain: Do I have arthritis or<br />

could it be mainly my muscles?<br />

The team at Physical Sense in Sydenham<br />

sees clients with a range of symptoms but<br />

many of their middle-aged and senior clients<br />

visit complaining of pain in one of their joints.<br />

Physiotherapist Ietje van Stolk suggests<br />

that a major part of the pain could be due<br />

to muscle pain rather than simply arthritis.<br />

“Even if an x-ray shows arthritis, the reason<br />

for the pain may be the muscles around<br />

the joint,” she explains. The images show<br />

how a muscle knot (the crosses) in a back<br />

muscle can give hip pain (aches and pain<br />

are the red areas in the drawings), a knot<br />

in a muscle on the back of the shoulder<br />

blade can give a deep pain in the front of<br />

the shoulder and a muscle knot all the way<br />

near the groin can give an ache in the knee<br />

(especially at night in bed).<br />

Ietje recalls one case where an 89 year<br />

old client with severe arthritis who walked<br />

with a stick, told her, “I will end up in<br />

a wheelchair, I cannot put any weight<br />

through my right leg due to pain in my hip<br />

and buttock”. “Within 4 treatments, she<br />

was walking with her stick but without the<br />

severe pain,” says Ietje. “The arthritis was<br />

one of the factors that made her muscles<br />

spasm but the other was that older people<br />

move less and the flexed position the hip<br />

is in when we sit is particularly bad for<br />

the hip.” Ietje is happy with the fact that<br />

although the client was 89 and could have<br />

been “given up on” or told to live with the<br />

pain, she made a difference to her health<br />

and wellbeing.<br />

The same lack of movement can be the<br />

reason for your knee pain or your shoulder<br />

pain and the same few treatments could<br />

make a huge difference for you.<br />

At Physical Sense, hands-on techniques<br />

(massage and triggerpoint deactivation<br />

techniques) are used to release the muscles.<br />

The client also gets a home exercise<br />

program designed to mobilize and stretch<br />

the joint, strengthen the important core<br />

muscles and increase general strength and<br />

SHOULDER<br />

PAIN<br />

KNEE PAIN<br />

balance. They teach a movement sequence<br />

that stretches the joint in all directions<br />

whilst the client is able to lie safely on their<br />

bed, perfect for older or less mobile clients.<br />

In many cases having the muscles<br />

released and being taught how to maintain<br />

it, is enough to stay on top of the problem.<br />

HIP PAIN<br />

(the crosses are the areas of the muscle spasms, the red areas is where the pain is felt)<br />

If severe arthritis is the underlying cause,<br />

some maintenance therapy may be<br />

necessary, but that is often more affordable<br />

and, for older patients, better tolerated<br />

than surgery. After only one treatment you<br />

should know that it will work for you. Call<br />

and only pay $50 on that treament.<br />

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

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