Decked out Sumner Hub<br />

van gets community moving<br />

• By Samantha Mythen<br />

THE SUMNER Hub’s van,<br />

newly decked out with flash<br />

logos, is seeing significant use<br />

from the community since its<br />

purchase late last year.<br />

Sumner Hub co-ordinator<br />

Charlie Hudson said the van<br />

is well used by all sections of<br />

the community, such as sports<br />

teams and youth groups.<br />

It is also used for school<br />

education trips, transporting<br />

the elderly to functions or<br />

shopping, and is available for<br />

private hire.<br />

Said Hudson: “At its core,<br />

the van is used to grow community.<br />

It encourages groups<br />

not only to love where they<br />

live, but to also explore wider<br />

Christchurch.”<br />

The purchase of the new van<br />

was made possible by the Ferrymead<br />

Lions Club.<br />

Said club president Bernie<br />

Godden: “The Lions club is<br />

delighted to see its investment<br />

support growing community<br />

and connection.”<br />

More than two years ago,<br />

the Sumner Community<br />

Residents’ Association asked<br />

the club for assistance in<br />

raising funds to replace the old<br />

van. • Turn to page 3<br />

• From page 1<br />

“From Saturday, <strong>May</strong> 1,<br />

to Monday, <strong>May</strong> 3, the crew<br />

responded to nine missions<br />

across the region, including<br />

cardiac, maternity, several<br />

inter-hospital transfers and<br />

accidents. We anticipate<br />

increase as we head into<br />

“Our service watches over<br />

people across the South Island.<br />

We are gearing up for the<br />

colder months ahead, as cool<br />

SOUTHERN VIEW<br />

From army life to rescuing and<br />

• By Bea Gooding<br />

MARK WEAVER had a lot more<br />

time to spare after concluding<br />

20 years of service with the<br />

army reserve, so that’s when he<br />

decided to rescue the abandoned<br />

dogs of Canterbury.<br />

It started with the adoption<br />

of his first dog – Weaver was<br />

training his black labrador collie<br />

cross when he thought to put<br />

those skills to good use at the<br />

Dogwatch Sanctuary Trust.<br />

Four years later, he has pawed<br />

his way to the top, from training,<br />

walking and exercising<br />

the rescued dogs from pounds<br />

across the region, to ensuring the<br />

rehoming process runs smoothly<br />

as the trust’s new chairman.<br />

It was a long way from the<br />

tours he served in East Timor<br />

and Egypt, and his current<br />

project management job, but his<br />

affinity with animals meant he<br />

has always been conscious for<br />

ensuring they were treated with<br />

respect.<br />

“I haven’t always had a dog, I<br />

grew up with cats,” he said<br />

“But I’ve always had an affinity<br />

with animals, and I’ve always<br />

been conscious for ensuring<br />

they’re treated the right way.<br />

“I’ve always had that mindset<br />

that you’ve got to give back to<br />

RESCUE: Dogwatch Sanctuary Trust chairman Mark Weaver with rescue dog Kora. Weaver<br />

helps abandoned dogs from the pound find their new forever homes.<br />

the community, so that’s part of<br />

it, the other part is improving<br />

the lives of the dogs – it’s just as<br />

important as improving the lives<br />

of the people who adopt [them].”<br />

and rehomes dogs that have been<br />

abandoned at council pounds in<br />

Christchurch, Selwyn, Rangiora<br />

and Ashburton, for the last 39<br />

years.<br />

The trust rehomes dogs when<br />

SOIL AND<br />

DUMPING<br />

the pound can no longer keep<br />

them, especially if owners do not<br />

come forward, or if they were<br />

surrendered from private situations,<br />

such as deceased owners.<br />

It operates from a two hectare,<br />

purpose-built adoption centre<br />

in Bromley with large outdoor<br />

yards and exercise paddocks.<br />

It also educated owners about<br />

their moral and legal responsibility<br />

when owning a dog to prevent<br />

dogs from being seized by the<br />

city council in the first place, by<br />

providing advice, food, bedding<br />

and crates.<br />

“We’re just trying to be a ‘sign’<br />

at the top of the hill rather than<br />

the ambulance at the bottom.”<br />

Last year alone, 160 dogs were<br />

rehomed. It was about the average<br />

number of canines that were<br />

adopted out each year since the<br />

trust was established nearly four<br />

decades ago.<br />

The original founders were<br />

not satisfied with the conditions<br />

of the city council’s pound back<br />

then, so they started to rescue<br />

and foster the vulnerable dogs<br />

themselves, growing into what it<br />

is today.<br />

Said Weaver: “I think it’s<br />

rewarding to see a dog that<br />

comes in that’s just terrified of<br />

everything, and over time, with<br />

the right understanding, that<br />

dog turns around and becomes<br />

the quintessential, happy dog.<br />

“It’s why you do it – it’s why<br />

you’re out there, in the rain and<br />

the cold, picking up dog poo and<br />

doing the less glamorous bits.”<br />

rehoming abandoned dogs<br />

From puppies to seniors of a<br />

variety of breeds, there was always<br />

someone for every dog – but<br />

when the time was right.<br />

Weaver said that process was<br />

often a challenge as many dogs<br />

had difficulties adjusting upon<br />

arrival at the trust.<br />

Some had been chained up in<br />

backyards all their life. They were<br />

never exposed to other dogs or<br />

people, so building trust took time.<br />

“One of the most challenging<br />

things is knowing what some of<br />

these dogs have been through<br />

and knowing that sort of thing<br />

happens in our world,” he said.<br />

“But you can’t dwell on it because<br />

it’s not good for you or the<br />

dog. You’ve just got to put that<br />

behind you and try help the dog<br />

develop other behaviours that<br />

will be better suited in a family<br />

environment.”<br />

Weaver, originally from Rotorua,<br />

was one of 80 volunteers for<br />

four years prior to his election as<br />

the trust’s new chairman towards<br />

the end of last year.<br />

It was something to do when<br />

his stint in the army reserve<br />

finally came to an end; initially<br />

joining to challenge himself.<br />

Formally known as the Territorial<br />

Force, the reserve is a<br />

component of the New Zealand<br />

CARE: The Dogwatch Sanctuary Trust rescued and rehomed 160 abandoned dogs last year.<br />

Army, and is there to “fill out”<br />

the regular force.<br />

Soldiers train part-time a few<br />

weeks each year to achieve a<br />

standard good enough to join<br />

the regular force in deployments<br />

overseas, including Civil Defence<br />

matters in NZ.<br />

Working full-time as a project<br />

director for large commercial<br />

buildings, Weaver’s employer,<br />

Calder Stewart, gave him six<br />

months off work nearly a decade<br />

ago to serve in Sinai, Egypt.<br />

In 2002, he served in East Timor,<br />

during their civil war.<br />

Said Weaver: “I ended up being<br />

the assistant operations officer<br />

working in the battalion headquarters.<br />

Because of my project<br />

management background, I was<br />

also involved in starting the<br />

rebuild of some schools and medical<br />

centres that were destroyed<br />

during the civil war.<br />

“The civil war had pretty much<br />

ended, the problems there was<br />

crime more than anything else –<br />

a lot of extortion, blackmail, that<br />

sort of stuff.”<br />

The tour in Sinai saw him as a<br />

chief instructor for the Multinational<br />

Force.<br />

Similar to the United Nations,<br />

14 countries monitor the peace<br />

treaty between Egypt and Israel<br />

and provide troops to support<br />

that mission.<br />

“My job was to organise all the<br />

training and for various troops<br />

coming in from different nations<br />

to get up to the same standard,<br />

to be able to operate the equipment.”<br />

A “fair bit of shooting” during<br />

PHOTOS: GEOFF SLOAN<br />

the army reserve training years<br />

influenced his love of long-range<br />

rifle shooting.<br />

Weaver’s other love – his first<br />

dog – may have been a labrador<br />

collie cross, but it was the bull<br />

breeds, specifically the staffordshires,<br />

mastiffs and pitbulls that<br />

he cherished the most.<br />

“Those sorts of dogs – they’re<br />

just absolute goofballs and they’re<br />

incredibly affectionate and playful,”<br />

he said.<br />

“They’ll keep running and<br />

playing all day – just fantastic.”<br />

Cooler weather calls for cosy footwear<br />

That noticeable chill in the air we have<br />

been feeling lately signals time to put our<br />

warm-weather footwear away for a few<br />

months and opt for items that will keep<br />

our feet feeling cosy and comfortable in<br />

the coolest of weather, no matter if we<br />

are inside or out.<br />

Podiatrist Charlotte Russell, owner of<br />

The Shoe Room in Riccarton Road at<br />

Church Corner, says they are delighted<br />

to offer customers an exciting new range<br />

of winter footwear for <strong>2021</strong>, including<br />

slippers and ankle boots.<br />

Several of the slipper styles on display<br />

have adjustable openings, so not only<br />

do they fit snugly, but they are also very<br />

easy to put on, Charlotte says. Available<br />

for men and women, many also feature<br />

a removeable liner allowing for arch<br />

support to be inserted, and sturdy rubber<br />

soles for maximum warmth and comfort.<br />

The new range of stylish, high-quality<br />

ankle boots come in several designs<br />

and colours, with brands including<br />

the popular Ziera, which has a strong<br />

following in Christchurch, Charlotte<br />

notes.<br />

The Shoe Room has a wide selection of<br />

active flats available – dressy/casual<br />

footwear that is sporty yet smart, adding<br />

that extra touch of pizazz to jeans and<br />

casual trousers. The range includes the<br />

Australian Frankie 4 brand, designed<br />

by podiatrists and incorporating arch<br />

support and cushioned fitting options for<br />

added comfort.<br />

While the majority of footwear at The<br />

Shoe Room is for women, they do cater<br />

The Avon-Heathcote Estuary Ihutai Trust is a non-profit<br />

organisation formed to protect one of New Zealand’s<br />

most important coastal wetlands. Each week, board<br />

members will discuss matters regarding the estuary, its<br />

rich history and what makes it unique. This week Tanya<br />

Jenkins writes about restoration of Thistledown Reserve<br />

ESTUARY MATTERS<br />

Restoration draws wildlife back to reserve<br />

THISTLEDOWN Reserve<br />

is situated in Woolston, at<br />

Thistledown Pl.<br />

It comprises only 2258 sq m of<br />

wetland area and is the source of<br />

the Steam Wharf Stream which<br />

connects with Heathcote River<br />

at the Lyttelton Roundabout in<br />

Ferry Rd.<br />

A small city gem – a true example<br />

of the original Canterbury<br />

wetland with freshwater springs<br />

continuously bubbling up keeping<br />

this pure and clean water<br />

temperature in the steam at a<br />

constant cool 15 deg C.<br />

Thirteen species of native<br />

wetland birds had been recorded<br />

there and 18 species of them have<br />

been non-native.<br />

The most common native<br />

species being the grey warbler,<br />

silvereye and fantail.<br />

Pre-earthquake, it provided<br />

habitat for short-finned eel and<br />

whitebait. The 2010 and 2011<br />

earthquakes caused the creek<br />

banks to collapse, trees to fall<br />

over, bird and fish life disappeared.<br />

Temporary water drainage into<br />

the reserve had been allowed<br />

from local properties resulting in<br />

pollution of this waterway.<br />

Willow trees were left to thrive<br />

to very quickly take over from<br />

the native trees as maintenance<br />

of this reserve by the city council<br />

has been reduced post-earthquake<br />

events.<br />

Some urgency was required to<br />

do something as the paths were<br />

disappearing due to weed growth<br />

and the reserve became a wilderness,<br />

where locals became afraid<br />

to walk through it.<br />

The Estuary Trust stepped in<br />

after we received permission,<br />

support and supervision by city<br />

council park rangers.<br />

In 2016 the trust rounded up<br />

local residents and started the<br />

huge task of restoring this special<br />

little place.<br />

Volunteers, supervised by city<br />

council ranger Karen Smith,<br />

meet every third Saturday of each<br />

month between 10am and noon<br />

where we prune, weed and plant<br />

and are amazed and delighted<br />

with the return of birds, eel and<br />

whitebait.<br />

We would welcome an extra<br />

pair of hand to weed, prune and<br />

plant. We meet at the Thistledown<br />

Pl entrance to the reserve.<br />

No need to book, just turn up.<br />

Planting project lures kids<br />

MORE THAN 300<br />

students from 16 schools<br />

across the city will be<br />

digging deep to continue<br />

their native planting<br />

regeneration work in the<br />

eastern suburbs.<br />

They are pooling their<br />

resources on <strong>May</strong> 16 from<br />

10am to plant an area on<br />

the corner of Frosts and<br />

Beach Rds.<br />

It’s the fifth in an ambitious<br />

long-term native<br />

regeneration in the area,<br />

spearheaded by Christ’s<br />

College head of physics at<br />

David Newton.<br />

Launched in 2019, the<br />

project pools the resources<br />

of students who have so far<br />

planted 5000 native trees<br />

in part of New Brighton’s<br />

red zone plan to add another<br />

10,000 this year.<br />

The children are from<br />

HOME & HEATING<br />

Get the balance<br />

right this winter<br />

Enviro Master has been helping<br />

Cantabrians get the balance right when it<br />

comes to choosing the perfect heat pump or<br />

air conditioning system for their home or<br />

office since 2002.<br />

Their team of expert sales people, qualified<br />

electricians, heating and refrigeration<br />

engineers, help to supply and install<br />

Christchurch’s widest range of heat pumps,<br />

and because they have no affiliation with any<br />

one brand, you can be assured their advice<br />

on the benefits and differences between each<br />

product is unbiased.<br />

They will recommend the most energyefficient<br />

and cost-effective system for your<br />

individual situation, and will have you<br />

regulating the heat in your home or office in<br />

no time.<br />

Nowadays, customers are often wanting<br />

whole home solutions to be able to maintain<br />

even temperatures throughout the home both<br />

in Winter and Summer. This can be achieved<br />

by using ducted systems or multi systems<br />

and Enviro Master are experts in designing,<br />

installing and commissioning these systems.<br />

Help is currently available with a<br />

government subsidy covering 90 per cent of<br />

the cost of a new heat pump up to $3000.<br />

The subsidy is part of the Warmer Kiwi<br />

Homes initiative and is available to Home<br />

owner/occupiers with a Community Services<br />

Card, a SuperGold combo card or who live in<br />

a low-income area as determined by deciles<br />

SOUTHERN VIEW<br />

8-10 on the New Zealand Deprivation Index.<br />

The applicant’s home must also have been<br />

built before 2008, have insulation up to code<br />

(insulation subsidies also available) and have<br />

no fixed heating in a living area, such as an<br />

existing operational heat pump or fireplace.<br />

With new regulations coming in for<br />

Landlords to provide heating in rentals,<br />

now is a great time to beat the deadline.<br />

Inadequate heating and ventilation can lead<br />

to mould growth and dampness in your<br />

property, leading to costlier maintenance<br />

and an unhealthy living environment.<br />

Providing a fixed heater with a higher heat<br />

output and lower running costs, like a heat<br />

pump, will enable your tenants to heat the<br />

area effectively. Enviro Master are well<br />

experienced with the Tenancy Services<br />

software to ensure that you are meeting your<br />

requirements.<br />

To ensure you choose the right system for<br />

your home or business, one of Enviro Master’s<br />

experts will visit to assess your individual<br />

situation, offer advice and answer any<br />

questions you may have. This consultation<br />

is at no cost to the customer and is always<br />

provided before a heat pump is installed.<br />

Anyone wondering about their eligibility<br />

for a subsidised heat pump are welcome to<br />

get in touch for details and help with the<br />

application process. To find out more, call<br />

HOME & HEATING<br />

Ground moisture barrier<br />

under low sub-floor<br />

Now with the colder and wetter weather on<br />

its way, home owners are focusing on ways<br />

to make their homes comfortable, warm<br />

and healthy for their families throughout<br />

winter. Rising damp is an issue that affects<br />

many of our older properties which suffer<br />

from poor, or no, ground moisture barrier.<br />

In Canterbury especially, post-quake, many<br />

people have relocated to homes that suffer<br />

from rising damp which can be associated<br />

with health problems. Independent tests have<br />

shown that up to 40 litres of water can rise<br />

from the ground and enter a house every day,<br />

leading to mildew, mould, condensation and<br />

musty smells. Moulds can produce various<br />

allergic reactions and the frail, elderly and<br />

very young are especially vulnerable.<br />

Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd is a<br />

locally owned and operated firm. The team<br />

understands the problems caused by rising<br />

damp and are there to help. They will come<br />

to your damp home and pump a lightweight,<br />

flowable foam concrete under your timber<br />

floored home.<br />

While insulation is important, it has been<br />

recognised that it is dampness that is the real<br />

villain in the house. The new Healthy Homes<br />

Standards introduced by the government<br />

effective from the 1st July 2019 now has<br />

a requirement to install ground moisture<br />

barriers, a key element in the armory to fight<br />

moisture in the home.<br />

Dr Larry Bellamy BE (hons) PhD in a<br />

report dated 1988: Foam Concrete Under<br />

Timber Floors: An Energy Analysis assessed<br />

the effects of placing Foam Concrete over<br />

damp soil and had this to say: Condensation<br />

on the underside of a timber floor can occur<br />

where the floor is suspended over damp<br />

ground and the inside air temperature falls<br />

close to the crawl space air temperature.<br />

Much energy is required to vaporize moisture<br />

that penetrates the structure. By avoiding<br />

underfloor condensation, foam concrete can<br />

reduce floor heat losses by up to 90%.<br />

• Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd can in most<br />

cases, install a Ground Moisture Barrier<br />

under the suspended wooden floor of your<br />

home, even when there is no crawl space.<br />

New Zealand.<br />

Canterbury region with no obligations.<br />

regions by arrangement.<br />

What makes a great<br />

heat transfer system?<br />

There are a number of Heat Transfer<br />

systems on the market. Smooth-Air<br />

ventilation specialists offer a range of HTU<br />

Heat Transfer Units with carefully selected<br />

components to optimise the system:<br />

They use insulated duct to transfer<br />

the heated air with as little heat loss as<br />

possible. The fan moves sufficient air<br />

for the distance and number of rooms,<br />

without being noisy. The diffusers send<br />

the heat to the floor, not to skim the across<br />

the ceilings. All components are good<br />

quality - designed to operate for years<br />

without problems.<br />

Smooth-Air’s HTUs come in a range<br />

of options: One to four rooms, with or<br />

without thermostat and with a choice<br />

of grilles and diffusers. HTUs improve<br />

energy efficiency in your house, as you are<br />

using excess heat. They have low power<br />

consumption - only 80watts for the three<br />

room system. Circulating air<br />

through the house also reduces<br />

the risk of damp.<br />

You can also choose the HTU<br />

version with downjet diffusers,<br />

which throw the warm air<br />

downwards to the floor. These<br />

downjet diffusers can also be<br />

adjusted to regulate which room<br />

receives the most warm air.<br />

An average size living room<br />

requires 2-4 kw of heating, yet<br />

appliances such as log burners<br />

generate heat in the region of 10<br />

-20kw. This leaves an excess of 8<br />

-16kw of heat which sits at high<br />

level in the heated room, usually above<br />

door level.<br />

Heat transfer units work best where very<br />

hot air has ‘stratified’ into a layer near the<br />

ceiling. So heat pumps, which circulate<br />

warm air around the room with no<br />

layering, are not suitable as a heat source<br />

by themselves. However, if you have both<br />

log burner and a heat pump, heat transfer<br />

systems with thermostat can work very<br />

well: The heat pump stops operating once<br />

the heat from the fire has heated the room,<br />

and the heat transfer kicks in above this<br />

point, once there is a layer of hot air at the<br />

ceiling.<br />

they can help you with your Heat<br />

Transfer, as well as any other ventilation<br />
