New use for old defibrillators 

• By Bea Gooding 

THE HORNBY Community 

Patrol has been gifted life-saving 

equipment to assist them in 

their efforts to keep residents 

safe. 

The city council aquatics team 

has partnered with the New 

Zealand Red Cross to provide 

automated external defibrillators 

in the community. 

Formally available in city 

council facilities, they are 

already back in use. The donation 

was also extended to the 

Christchurch North Community 

Patrol. 

“While the defibrillators have 

saved several lives in council 

facilities, including poolside and 

in work areas, they are suitable 

for community use for another 

few years,” city council head of 

recreation, sports and events 

Nigel Cox said. 

“We update our defibrillators 

to best meet the needs of our 

busy spaces and some of the 

older models can be reused in 

the wider community. 

“These are handed to Red 

Cross for a full check and new 

batteries and pads before a 

suitable community home is 

found.”

LIFE-SAVING: NZ Red Cross national products manager Marcus Bird (left) and city 

council training adviser Ben Warwick donates a defibrillator to Hornby Community Patrol 

member Norm Williams.

national products manager 

Marcus Bird said that the 

city council AEDs – initially 

provided through Red Cross – 

still have “plenty of life left and 

are ideal for community groups 

that may not normally have 

access to the devices.” 

“Nearly half of those people 

treated for cardiac arrest 

survive thanks to a defibrillator 

provided by a community 

responder,” he said. 

“They are such an important 

piece of the health and safety 

kit, with the council AEDs at a 

range of facilities and out in the 

hills environments. 

“With the council upgrading 

AEDs to the latest technology at 

high-use facilities such as pools, 

we can find a use for the older 

models. In this case, several 

community patrols had already 

approached us about keeping 

AEDs in their patrol cars.” 

The defibrillators are in good 

working order and can be repurposed, 

cleaned and checked out 

- with new batteries if needed 

- and used for a further five to 

seven years. 

“The more AEDs out there in 

the wider community, the better 

the chance of survival following 

a cardiac arrest,” Bird said. 

Many buildings 

free to access 

• From page 1 

The colleges will join 44 other 

buildings, including the Old Government 

building, Muse Art Hotel, 

Lane Neave, Rāpaki Church, Fo 

Guang Shan Buddhist temple, Te 

Hononga Civic Offices, Millstream 

apartment and the Lyttelton studio 

monastery. 

Eighty-five per cent of the buildings 

will be free to access. 

Said Halliday: “Architecture 

is a complex, rich art form and 

cultural product – it connects us 

with different histories, design, 

big and small ideas, materials and 

technologies, politics, art, identity, 

social and cultural values. There’s a 

lot to engage with and learn about 

when you focus on a building’s 

architecture. 

“Longer term we want Open 

Christchurch to be a gateway for 

more people to get involved in city 

making – in the processes and cultures 

that shape where we all live. 

“Open Christchurch is a celebration 

of the city’s architecture. 

We’ve packed the programme 

with access to a diverse range of 

buildings in the hope that’s there 

something for everyone.”

200km confidence-inspiring 

expedition tests students 

A GROUP of Hornby High 

School students have a whole lot 

more confidence in themselves 

now that they have completed a 

200km expedition through the 

Southern Alps. 

The 12 tired, year 10 students 

were greeted with a moving kapa 

haka performance by their peers 

when they cycled back onto 

school grounds after spending 

four days in the wilderness. 

As part of the Graeme 

Dingle Foundation’s Project K 

programme, the students made 

their way back to school from 

the Lewis Pass by mountain biking 

and hiking, carrying enough 

gear and food supply for the 

journey. 

Losing their cellphones and 

contact with everyone and 

having to trust and rely on 

their 12 fellow participants for 

survival, was only the start of 

a journey for a group who had 

never experienced wilderness 

activities or living in the 

outdoors. 

While the weather was generally 

fine over the expedition, the 

group experienced morning 

frosts, mist and rain as their 

journey threw challenges such 

as the summitting of Mt Oxford, 

100km of mountain biking, caving 

and abseiling down a cliff. 

Jaleel Aratuara-Collins, a 2020 

Project K participant graduate 

shared her journey. 

“Last year I was an idiot, 

doing things that I shouldn’t be 

doing. I had little or no respect 

for anyone, making stupid 

decisions, physically hurting 

myself because I was trying 

to deal with things that I was 

struggling with,’’ she said. 

“Through my Project K journey, 

I learnt how to make friends 

with people outside my circle, to 

give people a chance, to grow as 

an individual and how to hone 

in on my team-building skills. 

“I learnt to become mentally 

stronger and I can now comfortably 

ask for help if I need it,’’ 

Jaleel said. 

RUGGED: A 

group of year 

10 Hornby High 

School students 

have returned 

home after 

spending four 

days trekking 

through the 

Southern Alps. 

Project K was started by Sir 

Graeme Dingle in 1996 and has 

three components including 

the wilderness expedition, a 

community challenge and a oneon-one 

mentoring programme, 

all designed to build confidence, 

teach life skills and help find 

purpose and direction. 

The programme was 

introduced in Christchurch in 

2002. 

Series of guided 

walks to 

improve fitness 

PEOPLE ARE being encouraged 

to step up their fitness through a 

new series of guided walks that 

gradually move from a wetland 

wander to a more challenging hill 

climb. 

The Sport Canterbury-based 

Green Prescription team – 

together with the Adventure 

Specialties Trust – has designed 

four winter walks for “beginner 

explorers.” 

The first walk on May 20 

traverses Travis Wetland, with the 

series culminating with a walk to 

the top of the Port Hills on July 1. 

The other walks include a coastal 

walk from Spencer Park on June 

3 and along Mt Vernon Track on 

June 17. 

“There are four bush walks 

in the series and they start flat 

and progress, so that by the 

fourth walk, participants may be 

prepared for a gentle gradient,” 

Green Prescription team lead 

Abby Wilson said. 

“For some people, it may be 

their first time heading into the 

Port Hills.” 

The Green Prescription 

programme provides support and 

motivation for people wanting 

to increase or maintain their 

physical activity.

‘Council attack on public facilities in Riccarton’ 

Central Riccarton 

Residents’ 

Association secretary 

Garth Wilson talks 

about city council 

decisions 

In December 2020, staff 

sent a report to councillors 

drawing attention to the fact 

that Riccarton Rd is a key public 

transport corridor with over 800 

bus movements a day. 

As well as linking people to 

Riccarton as a destination, the 

bus lounges on Riccarton Rd 

are a key connecting hub on 

Environment Canterbury’s network 

linking passengers to other 

services. 

Only a matter of weeks later, 

city council staff recommended 

closing these lounges. Consultation 

was invited from interested 

residents to this proposal. But 

even before the proposal was 

opened to the public, staff had 

for months been trying to find 

businesses willing to sublease the 

lounges. The so-called consultation 

was nothing of the sort but 

just another nonsultation which 

this council has become notorious 

for. 

Nowhere in the bus lounges 

were notices placed advising users 

how they could make views 

felt on the proposed closures. 

The very mention of savings 

of $600,000pa was misleading 

because it was only ever 

$300,000pa that ratepayers were 

contributing to the lounge operating 

costs. 

Where are people waiting for 

a bus going to stand? There is no 

seating available and there will 

be considerable congestion with 

walkers, prams and e-scooters. 

This is yet another attack on 

public facilities in the central 

Riccarton area, the most densely 

populated in Christchurch with 

a density far exceeding the limit 

city council placed on medium 

density zones. 

Population has increased 

exponentially since the earthquakes 

so what does the council 

propose? Strip the area of its 

facilities, even though it suffers 

from high levels of deprivation. 

The city council wants to close 

the marvellous and brilliantly 

managed Wharenui Pool, shut 

down the Mobile Library Service 

(to all of Christchurch), close 

the bus lounges, and, of course, 

Riccarton has lost its authentic 

community centre to a building 

which is more like a branch of 

Hereford St. 

City council staff have still not

admitted their incompetence 

was to blame for the two months’ 

hold-up on the Elizabeth St 

cycleway because they did not 

obtain archaeological consent 

from themselves. 

Because staff steadfastly (and 

arrogantly) refused to take account 

of overwhelming public 

sentiment in 2019 there are now 

many empty shops on Riccarton 

Rd. 

City council staff are desperately 

looking for ways they can 

cut expenditure. They will find 

the solution close to home. There 

is a bloated bureaucracy in council

There is such an excess of 

“managers” that city council 

administration is unhealthily 

obese. It should employ local Kiwis 

instead of constantly importing 

staff from overseas because 

local Kiwis will listen to local

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 

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

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 

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

Cinema owner is looking for successor 

• By Samantha Mythen 

LANG MASTERS, long-time 

owner of the iconic Hollywood 

3 Cinema in Sumner, has turned 

90 and he’s still working seven 

days a week. 

If you stop by for a movie, you 

can see Lang with a big smile 

waiting behind the counter, usually 

during matinées. 

On April 30, friends, family, 

and work colleagues, old and 

new, gathered at Masters’ home 

to celebrate his birthday. 

He said he is still eating the 

leftovers from the three-tier film 

reel cake made especially for him. 

Lang has owned the cinema for 

more than 60 years. Hollywood 

Cinema was only open on Saturdays 

when Lang and his wife 

Maureen first took over in 1962. 

They painted and redecorated 

the 1938 building. 

Only now at 90, is he considering 

stepping down and is looking 

for someone to take over his 

share of the business. 

“It would be great if that person 

was interested in movies,” 

said Lang. 

“I would hate to see the theatre 

pulled down.” 

Even if it is sold. Lang said he 

would still pop in if they needed 

him. 

“I enjoy working here – it 

keeps you alive,” he said. 

Although Covid has resulted 

in a movie shortage, Lang said 

people have continued to support 

the theatre. 

“It would be great to see more 

visitors though.” 

Lang has been running 

theatres around the country 

since he was a teen. He attended 

Christchurch Boys’ High School 

and hosted movies on 16mm 

film for friends in his parent’s 

garage. 

In 1981, at the height of Lang 

and Maureen’s cinematic empire, 

they ran seven cinemas in 

Christchurch.

‘A very enjoyable life’ 

• From page 9 

“The hard part is making sure 

you pick the right films,” he said. 

“Here, we do better with arty films 

not blood-thirsty action films.” 

In 2013, Lang won a New 

Zealand Motion Picture Industry 

Council award for service to the 

industry. 

The Hollywood Cinema first 

opened in 1938 and has been 

screening movies since then. A 

second screen was added in 1976 

and a third in 1999. 

In 2014, the cinema won the 

people’s choice award for the 

best independent cinema at the 

New Zealand Motion Picture 

Awards. 

In his home on Scarborough 

Hill, Lang has his own theatre, 

where friends and family visit. 

Lang’s personal favourite genre 

is musicals – South Pacific, the 

Sound of Music, Oklahoma – 

movies accompanied by a chocolate 

dipped ice cream. 

Lang said running theatres 

with his wife Maureen has made 

it a very enjoyable life.

Leaving a legacy after 43 years at Foodstuffs 

JOHN MULLINS will leave 

behind a legacy of innovation 

and change when he retires from 

Foodstuffs South Island after 43 

years. 

As general manager of supply 

chain, he oversaw the operation 

projects that provide customers 

with the experience they have 

with the Foodstuffs brands of 

today. 

Starting his Foodstuffs career 

as a management cadet back in 

1978 in Christchurch, Mullins 

worked in a range of roles training 

in areas of sales desk, warehouse 

operations, Cash‘N‘Carry, 

and general clerical duties. 

“Looking back on my time 

at Foodstuffs South Island, I 

was fortunate enough to be able 

to work in a variety of roles, 

upskilling and working my way 

around the business,” Mullins, of 

Fendalton, said. 

“In the 80s, I was given the 

opportunity to move into a shipping 

and purchasing role, later 

taking up the role of wholesale 

operations manager in 1985. 

“It was the number of different 

roles I took on in the 80s that has 

helped to shape my knowledge 

and understanding of how the 

business continues to operate so 

successfully today.” 

The end of the 1980s saw a 

merger between Foodstuffs 

Christchurch and Foodstuffs 

Otago, forming Foodstuffs South 

Island. 

For Mullins, this meant further 

opportunities as he moved 

into a new corporate executive 

role. 

“During my time at Foodstuffs 

Christchurch and later Foodstuffs 

South Island I’ve enjoyed 

watching the business transform, 

helping to integrate new systems, 

operations and technology 

throughout our supply chain,” 

he said. 

“It has been incredible seeing 

the business grow over the years 

with new retail stores, technology 

advancements, and larger 

premises for more capacity to 

store food for extended periods 

of time.” 

The year 2003 saw Mullins move 

into his role of general manager 

wholesale operations and procurement, 

and in 2010 he was given the 

role of general manager of supply 

chain and was appointed an adviser 

to the board. 

Said Foodstuffs South Island 

chief executive Steve Anderson: 

VARIETY: After 

43 years, supply 

chain general 

manager 

John Mullins 

is retiring from 

his crucial role 

at Foodstuffs 

South Island. 

“I’ve had the privilege of working 

with John over the past 20 

years and seen first-hand the 

instrumental role he played in 

developing and growing our supply 

chain. 

“Some highlights for me include 

John setting up our procurement 

and inventory systems, developing 

and launching our warehouse 

management system and its ongoing 

enhancements, not forgetting 

the many other projects he’s tackled 

over the years.” 

Over the last couple of decades, 

highlights for Mullins include 

the opening of the Hornby 

chilled and frozen distribution 

centre in 2000, the opening of 

the Hornby ambient DC in 2007 

and further expansion in 2014, 

and the launch of Foodstuffs 

South Island’s transport company, 

to name a few. 

Last year he oversaw the 

opening of the new Hornby 

temperature-controlled DC to 

name a few. 

The opening was a highlight 

for Mullins as it upscaled Foodstuffs’ 

operations with their new 

world-class chilled and frozen 

distribution centre. 

This meant they were able to 

increase the volume, range of 

product and services required 

for them to continue feeding the 

South Island. 

The building and opening of 

the new DC was a massive project 

which created over 100 additional 

jobs and meant upscaling 

operations to provide deliveries 

to our retail stores seven days a 

week. 

Although the everyday sounds 

of forklifts whirling and trucks 

reversing will become but a thing 

of the past, upon retirement, 

Mullins looks forward to 

continuing his outdoor pursuits, 

giving back to the community 

with local governance roles and 

spending time with his family.

Public Notice 

Notice for consultation on a proposed Enrolment 

Scheme amendment – Halswell School 

The Ministry of Education has identified that Halswell School is likely to be 

overcrowded and has given the school board notice of this. 

After consultation with the board, we have developed a proposed enrolment 

scheme amendment for Halswell School under section 72 of the Education and 

Training Act 2020. 

As part of this process, we are consulting with the school’s community and with 

people living in the area for which the school is a reasonably convenient school. 

Under this scheme, students will be enrolled if they live within the proposed 

home zone. The enrolment of out-of-zone students is governed by the

WESTERN NEWS 

Thank You 

for your support! 

Harcourts Holmwood are thrilled to have 

been honoured with multiple accolades at 

the recent Harcourts Canterbury Annual 

Awards. We have immense gratitude to 

our team for their great work and to our 

clients for their continued faith in us. 

Awards on their own don’t really mean much, 

but put them into context and they mean a 

great deal. They remind us of the thousands 

of incredible sellers, buyers, investors and 

tenants we have had the opportunity to assist 

this year – we thank you for your support and 

for choosing our team as your team. They also 

remind us that in doing great business, we’ve 

had the incredible opportunity to support 

others in their endeavours to make our 

community great; through our charitable giving 

such as Nurse Maude, Cholmondeley House, 

Good Bitches Baking, Inspire Foundation... to 

name a few. We are grateful every day for the 

opportunity to help people in our community, 

not only in their real estate goals, but also in 

building a fantastic city together.
