Four-week delay to completion
of Woolston Village upgrade
BROUGHAM ST motorists may
WORK ON the multi-million
dollar upgrade of Woolston
Village has been extended for
four weeks, with contractors
now expected to finish at the
end of this month.
City council planning and
delivery manager Lynette Ellis
said the streetscape project has
experienced delays due to the
complex nature of the work.
The upgrades include installing
new pedestrian crossings,
mini plazas, wider footpaths,
cycle lanes, and landscaping,
which were meant to be completed
by the end of last month.
“Unfortunately, when you’re
working underneath the ground
unexpected things happen or
things don’t go to plan. As a result,
our contractor’s work programme
has progressed more
slowly than originally planned,”
said Ellis.
“This is a fairly complex
project involving the renewal of
100-year-old wastewater pipes
and working around a network
of underground services. The
contractor has also had to contend
with significant concrete
foundations and steel tram
UNEXPECTED: The Woolston Village upgrades will now take one month longer than
planned.

tracks that date back to the days
when trams rattled along Ferry
Rd towards Sumner.’’
The project is currently on
track to finish at the end of this
month, instead of March as
originally indicated.
The team will also complete
the bulk of the planting and
landscaping work during the
winter months.
“We know parts of this project
have been noisy and disruptive
and want to thank the Woolston
community for their patience
and understanding as we upgrade
the Village centre,’’ Ellis
said
“Woolston’s vibrant business
centre is open for business, so I
encourage people to keep shopping
locally and support your
community.
“On-street parking on Ferry
Rd isn’t available right now,
but there’s lots of alternative
parking around the village. It
might mean a bit of a walk, but
Woolston businesses would love
to see you.”
Pipe repairs
likely to
disrupt traffic
experience delays over the coming
months as work is carried out
to replace an ageing stormwater
pipe underneath the Barrie St
intersection.
The brick barrel pipe dates back
to 1910 and has reached the end of
its life.
“The work will be carried out
over the next two to three months
and will be done in stages to reduce
the disruption to traffic,’’ said city
council stormwater and waterways
programme manager Keith Davison.
“While the work is carried
out, we will be maintaining two
lanes of traffic in each direction
on Brougham St during the day.
However, there will be a speed reduction
in place and Barrie St and
James K Baxter Pl may be closed at
times.”
Crews will be working at night
as Brougham St will be reduced to
one lane.
“Unfortunately the night work
might disturb residents living
nearby, but the crews will be
working to get the noisy part of the
work done as early as possible in
their shift to keep the disruption to
a minimum.”

Gulf Wars
How We Kept The Cup
by richard Gladwell
Gulf Wars is a pictorially driven celebration of Emirates Team New Zealand’s
America’s Cup win in Auckland 2021, written from an on the water perspective
by one of the world’s most influential America’s Cup photo-journalists,
Richard Gladwell.
Richard Gladwell is an international sailing journalist and photographer who
lives in New Zealand. He began sailing when he was ten years old and first
wrote about the America’s Cup five years later. A Kiwi representative sailor,
he competed internationally in dinghies and keelboats for 12 years, sailing
with and against some of the current senior members of Emirates Team New
Zealand. He has covered the America’s Cup and Team New Zealand in its
various renditions for the past 35 years.
Between Five Eyes
50 years of Intelligence Sharing
by Anthony r. Wells
UK/US intelligence and the wider Five Eyes community of Canada, Australia and New
Zealand is primarily about one main thing: Relationships. In this remarkable book,
Anthony Wells charts fifty years of change, turmoil, intense challenges, successes and
failures, and never-ending abiding Five Eyes relationships. He traces the development
of institutions that he firmly believes have sustained, and indeed may have saved,
Western democracies and their allies from those ill disposed to the value system and
culture of our nations. More than a chronology of the UK/US intelligence community
during this fifty-year period, it is also a personal insight into key relationships and the
abiding strength of the United States and the United Kingdom and its Five Eyes allies
relationships. The author is the only living person to have worked for British Intelligence
as a British citizen and US Intelligence as a US citizen. He was a fully trained and
accredited security officer for two US intelligence organizations, and used his own
extensive unclassified collection of papers, personal notes and diaries, as well as his
family library for source material to create this book.
A Nurse’s Story
by Louise Curtis with Sarah Johnson
Moving, honest and inspiring – this is a nurse’s true story of life in a busy A&E department
during the Covid-19 crisis.
Working in A&E is a challenging job but nurse Louise Curtis loves it. She was newly
qualified as an advanced clinical practitioner, responsible for life or death decisions
about the patients she saw, when the unthinkable happened and the country was hit by
the Covid-19 pandemic. The stress on the NHS was huge and for the first time in her
life, the job was going to take a toll on Louise herself.
In A Nurse’s Story she describes what happened next, as the trickle of Covid patients
became a flood. And just as tragically, staff in A&E were faced with the effects of lockdown
on society. They worried about their regulars, now missing, and saw an increase in
domestic abuse victims and suicide attempts as loneliness hit people hard. By turns
heartbreaking and heartwarming, this book shines a light on the compassion and
dedication of hospital staff during such dark times.
The Auschwitz Photographer
Based on the true story of Wilhelm Brasse
by Luca Crippa and Maurizio Onnis
When Germany invaded Wilhelm Brasse’s native Poland in 1939, he was asked to swear
allegiance to Hitler and join the Wehrmacht. He refused. He was deported to Auschwitz
concentration camp as political prisoner number 3444. A trained portrait photographer,
he was ordered by the SS to record the inner workings of the camp. He began by taking
identification photographs of the prisoners as they entered the camp, went on to capture
the criminal medical experiments of Josef Mengele, and also recorded executions.
Between 1940 and 1945, Brasse took around 50,000 photographs of the horror around
him. He took them because he had no choice.
Eventually, Brasse’s conscience wouldn’t allow him to hide behind his camera. First he risked
his life by joining the camp’s Resistance movement, faking documents for prisoners, trying
to smuggle images to the outside world to reveal what was happening. Then, when Soviet
troops finally advanced on the camp to liberate it, Brasse refused SS orders to destroy his
photographs. ‘Because the world must know,’ he said.
Crusade On!
Celebrating 25 years Of The Crusaders
By Matt McIlraith
The Crusaders are not just another sports team. Out of a modest beginning grew the
most formidable professional club entity rugby has ever seen. Yet sustained on-field
excellence is just part of the story of a team that succeeded by living its stated ethos of
hard work, the embracement of diversity, and a commitment to represent its people with
pride and humility. Join the crusade as Matt McILraith takes you inside the club’s first
25-years, dissecting the key moments, the successes and the rare failures, complete with
season analysis, biographies of all 245 players, and the five head coaches, as well as
statistics from all 370 games the team played. A 360-degree portrait, Crusade On also
introduces some of the larger-than-life personalities, from within the team and off the
field, all of whom helped to make the Crusaders what they are. The way the Crusaders
accomplished their success, with no one person more important than any other, and
the enduring culture they created to sustain it, is an example of continued achievement
that is as relevant for the boardroom as it is for the sporting arena. On-going success in
any pursuit is not achieved by accident. This is why the Crusaders’ story is so important.

Helping cats live out their nine lives
• By Bea Gooding
JOYCE LATHAM never grew up
with a pet.
But when a furry feline invited
itself into her family home one
day her relationship with cats
changed forever.
Now, the president of the Cats
Protection League Canterbury is
the proud owner of six cats, most
of whom have special needs.
And for the past 13 years, she
has been on a mission to save as
many cats in the city as possible.
“My family didn’t have cats,
but a cat walked in once and
from there, I became very much
a cat person,’’ said the Bryndwr
resident.
It was not difficult to foster
her own felines, she said, having
plenty of experience running a
cattery herself with usually 40 to
50 cats at a time.
The league rescue, rehabilitate
and rehome stray and
abandoned cats, and provide assistance
to those who could not
afford to desex their cats through
its Feline Fix programme.
Desexing your cat, particularly
tomcats, was crucial to help reduce
the rate of feline AIDS and
decrease the number of kittens
being brought into places like the
league.
About 50 volunteers came in
MISSION: Joyce Latham with Hope who has found a new
home.
PHOTO: GEOFF SLOAN
once a week to help out in the
cattery, office and shop, as well
as about four managers who
worked there regularly.
They also often found new
homes for cats that could no
longer be looked after, such as an
owner who was moving into a
retirement home.
Last year, the league rehomed
535 cats and kittens.
But it did not stop there – the
protection league provides emergency
cat food assistance and for
unexpected vet bills as well.
“Sometimes their own cats
have had kittens and we do take
them in when approached to
help rehome them,” Latham said.
“There are enough cats in
Christchurch and Canterbury
to go well around all of the organisations,
we’ve actually got a
waiting list.”
Its second-hand shop in Linwood
was also a vital part of the
fundraising efforts, especially
with no government funding.
All store proceeds went towards
work to help the felines of
Canterbury.
When she is not reading or
gardening at home, Latham
volunteers her time feeding the
cats and acts as the matchmaker
when facilitating the rehoming
process.
After leaving a government
office job, she decided to dedicate
most of her energy to the league
and has done so since 2007.
“I like to match appropriate
cats to people with cats that suit
them,” she said.
“Some of them are a little older
or have special needs and need
medication, but we just talk with
people about what the cats are
like; their personalities.”
With so many success stories,
it was hard for Latham to pick
a particular instance that impacted
her the most.
But on the protection league’s
website, there were endless pages
of updates and photos from
owners on how their little furry
friend was getting along in their
new forever home.
There was one case where a lost
cat was brought into the cattery
and eventually reunited with its
owner after four years thanks to
its microchip.
Said Latham: “It’s why all of
us volunteer. When people give
feedback and say how the cats
have settled down, how much
they love them, it’s a constant
reward to know you’ve done a really
good job of helping to match
them up.
“It’s rewarding to know these
cats have had a second chance
in life and they’ve gone to really
loving homes.”
But there was always a downside.
Even though the league was
sheltered from tending to abused
or injured animals due to the
statutory role the SPCA played,
it was impossible to save them
all.
During the Covid-19 level 4
lockdown, things were made
worse when they were unable to
rehome any cats.
But rest assured, the cats that
do need homes end up finding
one, even if it takes a couple of
years.
“Cats are being surrendered to
us from homes, so we don’t see
the neglect and abuse – that’s the
SPCA’s role,” Latham said.
“The downside is knowing that
you can’t save every single cat
out there who don’t have homes
and aren’t desexed, therefore are
having kittens after kittens.
“But we save what we can and
focus on the ones we do save,
and that’s the main thing.”

Hākui Raewyn, Matua Antonio
We are approaching the end of Term 1 and it has been a busy
and exciting time for us as a kura. I want to congratulate our
akonga on their achievements this term and their commitment
to study and mahi. Our akonaga’s achievements next term are
very closely linked to their efforts this term and their results
at the end of the year are the culmination of four terms of
their commitment and hard work!
I would like to share with you my message to akonga at our
recent senior assembly. There is a saying,”it takes a village to
raise a child.” We are the village and our akonga are being
raised by us collectively. I am proud to be part of that journey.
Tēnā koutou, tēnā koutou, nga manaakitanga ki a tātou katoa!
Term one has been a busy 11 weeks for us all, and many of you have worked hard and as a result
many of you have achieved the goals you set for yourself way back in February. Well done!
As a contributor at Haeata you understand what it means to be responsible for your own actions.
Responsibility means you can be called to account for your actions. It means that you are liable,
accountable and answerable for the things you do and say.
We live in a community where you have rights and we have talked about these all term. We have
also talked about the fact that for every right you enjoy there is a corresponding responsibility.
Your rights:
I want you to take a moment to think about what an amazing country you live in. We are clean,
green and free. We are COVID-19 Free. We are not at war, we do not have to fear that on the
way to school we will be shot at by snipers, we do not have to fear that our buses will be bombed
as we travel to school, we do not have to fear that we may be the victims of a suicide bombing if we
go out to dinner in a restaurant or a movie. This is the reality for many young people your age in
countries around the world.
We all accept that our lifestyle is something we wish to preserve, but what we don’t think about so
much is that it is our responsibility to ensure that it is preserved. That responsibility starts here at
school. This school’s focus is to provide an education that will equip you to live and contribute to
our society in the 21st century.
Here you learn that it is your responsibility to look after each other, to stick up for each other and
to be supportive of the dreams and aspirations of others. It is your responsibility to work hard, take
every opportunity and be the very best you can be.
When you look around this school if you see things that are wrong – like bullying, theft, dishonesty,
confrontation it is your responsibility to speak out and be proactive in stopping such behaviour. It is
your responsibility to be part of the solution not part of the problem.
If you see students getting or having a hard time you have a responsibility to stick up for them, to
ensure that the weakest and most vulnerable of us are protected. Never is it appropriate to stand
back and say “it’s got nothing to do with me”. Be part of the solution NOT part of the problem!!
As a contributor you need to ensure you keep the main thing, the main thing. And what is the main
thing? So whanau, ‘let’s celebrate our akonga’s success! We all have a part to play in that. Let’s own
that as a village! As always, it is a privilege to serve this village!
Like a supernatural being, Toi, we acknowledge you.
The heart quickens at your call. Your heart gladdens the spirit, your spirit
releases the voice, your voice opens the mind, the mind weaves the words,
weaving the words carves the inherited treasures. Inspired by your image sound
resonates, performance thrives, the many faces of imagery captures the eye.
Linked by a soaring voice, fix your eyes on the people. From traditions etched in
the future let your breath be felt. Ignite imagination! Let the mind create beyond
what is seen, so that the arts that inspire continue to do so. Let everyone know
that the arts celebrate the present and create the future On Sunday we had the
first practice for the kapa haka secondary regional competition.
Our Haeata rangatahi have combined forces with Linwood College, Christchurch
Boys High, Christchurch Girls High, St Thomas and Cashmere. Our name is
Kimihia te Matauranga and what a team! We started the day with whanaungatanga.
Creating and nurturing relationships is an essential part of building a
successful competitive team. We played various games and started the process
of getting to know each other, the laughter reverberated through the hall!
Kapa haka is a powerful medium of Māori identity, culture, and pride. It plays
a huge role in the revitalisation of the Māori language and tikanga. It enhances
positive well-being of our ākonga by encouraging a sense of belonging, providing
a safe space in which to practice te reo me ōna tikanga, whilst reinforcing social
collaboration and cohesion.
Our ākonga have committed their weekends over to practices over the coming
months. We look forward to watching our rangatahi grow as a cohesive unit,
Kia kaha, kia toa, kia manawanui.

creation story of Ngāi Tahu.
As a kura, we were very lucky to receive a number of tickets to attend the performance Tūmahana today at the
town hall. This was a bilingual performance about the creation story of Ngāi Tahu.
Our very talented Kōmanawa māmā and ex Haeata kaiako, Juanita Hepi, was the creative director, and her equally
talented son and current Haeata ākonga, Manu Smith-Hepi, had a starring role. The show combined toi Māori,
circus, theatre, Taonga Pūoro, and the Christchurch Symphony Orchestra. Born of Māku and Māhoranuiātea, the
Sky Father Rakinui had many unions and many children.
One day as he was courting Earth Mother Papatūānuku, the Sea God Takaroa arrived to find Rakinui and Papatūānuku
together. Jealous, Takaroa challenged Rakinui to fight and eventually overcame him. As Rakinui fell on his
wife Papatūānuku, their children became sick from the lack of light and space.
Rakinui told his son Tāne to separate him from their mother Papatūānuku so that they may live healthy lives. Tane
reluctantly separated his parents with the help of his siblings. As the world of light came to be, Tāne realised that
his father was naked in the night. He sets out on a journey to find adornment for him.
The production was enthralling from beginning to end.
The audience (myself included) screamed and clapped in delight throughout the entire performance! When the
cast and crew came on stage to take a bow, Kōmanawa stood to do a haka, Tēnei te ruru, as a show of gratitude.
We finished the day with a kai and a play and Tākaro ā Poi.

The club’s four All Blacks also
featured, with prop Kerry tanner
and lock Isaac Ross starting in the
pack.
Ryan Crotty, New Brighton’s
most recent All Black, was named
at second five-eighth alongside
former Crusaders teammate Keiron
Fonotia.
The club’s first All Black, the
late loose forward Hugh Burry,
was included on the bench.
Crotty and Ross were unable to
attend the function due to overseas
commitments while the club
had no luck tracking down Tanner,
an All Black from 1974-1976.

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

Sam MacDonald, Catherine

letter to Mayor Lianne Dalziel
asking her to lead a conversation

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