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 />

$200,000 over the next four weeks<br />
to help get through the predictably<br />
busy winter months ahead.<br />

on new hospital helipad<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 />
mission numbers will steadily<br />
increase as we head into<br />
winter,” she said.<br />
“Our service watches over<br />
the lives of more than 600,000<br />
people across the South Island.<br />
We are gearing up for the<br />
colder months ahead, as cool<br />
temperatures and outdoor<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 />
HARDFILL<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 />
for men too, and are currently extending<br />
their range of men’s footwear.<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 />
Tuahiwi Kura, Burnside<br />

TEAM EFFORT: More than 300 students from 16<br />
schools across the city will soon take part in a<br />
mammoth plant regeneration project. <br />
Christchurch South Intermediate<br />
and Cathedral<br />
Grammar.<br />
Three further plantings<br />
are planned in June, August<br />
and September.<br />
Said Newton: “Over the<br />
next four years, we’re going<br />
to complete the current<br />
area we’re working on,<br />
plant the QE II Adventure<br />
Nature Trail and start<br />
another large block which is<br />
currently under negotiation<br />
with the city council.<br />
“It’s an opportunity for<br />
the students to practically<br />
realise the positive impact<br />
they can have on our community<br />
and the planet by<br />
each contributing a little<br />
bit. Our work will grow a<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 />

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 />
