East starts bid to 

reclaim council seat 

• By Bea Gooding 

DAVID EAST has launched his 

campaign today to re-claim the 

Coastal Ward city council seat he 

lost nearly two years ago. 

East believed his experience as 

a two-term city councillor could 

give him an advantage over other 

candidates in the October byelection. 

“As a former elected community 

board member and councillor, I 

have the required knowledge and 

extensive experience which clearly 

no other candidate has,” he said. 

The start of East’s campaign 

comes as nominations for the 

$65,000 by-election, scheduled for 

October 8, close at noon today. 

The city council seat used to 

belong to broadcasting veteran 

James Daniels, who left the role 

last month to take up a dream job 

hosting NewstalkZB Afternoons 

with Simon Barnett. 

The other candidates are 

Coastal-Burwood chairman Kelly 

Barber, local business owners 

Andre Hopman and Caleb 

Isaacs, New Brighton Residents’ 

Association chairwoman Celeste 

Donovan, and newcomer Katie 

Hays. • Turn to page 5

Making the most of the bund 

A NEWLY finished section 

of bund to reduce flood risk 

along South Brighton estuary is 

proving popular with walkers 

and cyclists. 

The bund is part of a $12.5 

million city council works 

programme to address 

earthquake legacy issues to the 

estuary edge in Southshore and 

South New Brighton. 

Made of compacted aggregate, 

the bund is set back from the 

estuary edge and runs through 

Bridge Reserve, south of Bridge 

St. 

It is topped by an elevated twometre-wide 

pathway, providing 

pedestrians and cyclists with 

expansive views across the 

estuary. 

About 5600 native plants and 

trees have been planted, with 

more landscaping work to 

come in certain areas, once the 

ground has dried out a bit 

more. 

City council head of three 

waters and waste Helen 

Beaumont said the completed 

project is a welcome step forward 

for the area. 

“Residents have been closely 

involved with council in coming 

up with effective and workable 

solutions to earthquake legacy 

issues,” she said.

of bund from the jetty down to 

the boardwalk and through the 

residential red zone.

Kids in hospital to benefit from Xmas fundraiser 


A 14-YEAR-OLD Parklands 

student wants to make sure 

every child gets a present this 

Christmas, especially if they’re 

stuck in hospital. 

Emily Grocott is currently 

collecting donations to be given 

as gifts to children staying 

overnight at Christchurch 

Hospital on Christmas Eve. 

The Avonside Girls’ High 

School year 9 student is 

spreading the message about her 

Santa Sleigh fundraiser because 

she did not want other kids 

to miss out on the Christmas 

magic. 

“It’s sad for children to 

miss out and hear about 

others getting presents but 

they don’t get it themselves,” she 

said. 

Emily was inspired to use a 

Santa sleigh belonging to her 

dad’s boss that had been sitting 

around at home for several 

years. 

Her family was using it as a 

Christmas decoration, but the 

student had other ideas about 

how it could be used towards her 

cause. 

That was when she asked her 

mum for help by putting a call 

out on Facebook for donations, 

having so far received 50 items 

that she will gift in person. 

Unfinished business from previous council stints – East 

• From page 1 

Including East, all 

candidates are standing as 

independents except for Barber, 

who is the People’s Choice candidate. 

Being ousted by Daniels from 

his Coastal-Burwood Community 

Board and city council seat 

in 2019 by a few hundred votes 

gave him the confidence to seek 

re-election. 

He said he was approached by a 

number of people who were keen 

to see him stand again, believing 

there was still unfinished business 

from his previous stints in 

“I thought of it when I saw 

[homeless] people sitting out on 

the street, so I asked my mum 

for help,” Emily said. 

“It feels nice to do it and to 

help people out.” 

Gifts can include clothes, 

games, teddy bears, blankets and 

art and craft for any gender or 

age, but they cannot be second 

hand. 

A separate box alongside the 

sleigh has also been set up for 

people to drop food off, which 

Emily will make into food 

parcels. 

“You can put someone’s name 

and number on [the food] that 

you feel needs it so I can draw 

some names out and give them a 

food parcel,” she said. 

Collection points at businesses 

in the eastern suburbs will be 

announced on her Facebook 

page, “Emily Santa Sleigh,” next 

month. 

If they are wrapped, gifts 

need to be labelled with the 

appropriate age and gender 

so they do not have to be 

unwrapped.

local government. 

“They expressed some concern 

that although members of our 

current community board were 

extremely enthusiastic, they 

are understandably lacking institutional 

knowledge and experience,” 

he said. 

“Those asking me to stand 

again felt now more than ever, 

the ward required someone that 

had a proven track record of not 

being able to ask the hard questions.” 

If elected, East will advocate for 

funding to address outstanding 

roading and footpath repairs, to

improve community engagement, 

addressing inefficiencies in city 

council spending, and adopting 

a community-led approach to 

climate change. 

Another priority included 

always being aware of the fact 

that there was more to the ward 

than solving the issues of New 

Brighton Mall. 

“The ward stretches from 

Southshore to Brooklands and 

there are numerous issues deserving 

attention in those places 

as well.” 

East said he has always adopted 

an attitude of working in collaboration 

with all elected members 

regardless of their political 

affiliation. 

Voting on issues with an 

approach of what is best for 

his community and city came 

first, even at the risk of “facing 

the occasional code of conduct” 

when asking the hard 

questions. 

Said East: “I am not afraid to 

front the community and explain 

my actions and decisions, as was 

the case when I challenge the 

council concerning significant 

anomalies in the District Plan, 

and the unjust impact it was 

having on the restoration of 

building rights for residents in 

South Brighton, South Shore and 

Redcliffs.” 

East is a proud, fourth-generation 

resident of the North Beach 

and New Brighton area, with 

great-grandparents, grandparents, 

and parents having all lived 

in the area. 

He has raised his own family 

in the ward and is involved 

with a number of organisations, 

including rugby and surf life 

saving clubs and the Wainoni 

Avonside Community Services 

Trust. 

Sensational service, absolutely tremendous. 

We so appreciate how accommodating and considerate 

Cam and his team have been. 

You have made a stressful process easy! Thank you!

Close contest for gold at 

retirement village games 

MAIREHAU’S Doreen Watkins 

says her race for gold at the 

Olympics@Ryman cycling final 

included a tough push for the 

line at the end of the 13.5km 

race. 

The 71-year old Diana Isaac 

Retirement Village competitor, 

who admits she is a bit of a 

fitness fanatic, was chased hard 

by silver medal winner Sue 

Greet, from Halswell’s Anthony 

Wilding Retirement Village. 

A total of 104 people from 

31 Ryman retirement villages 

throughout New Zealand and 

Australia entered the virtual 

cycling event, with 18 in the 

women’s event. 

Doreen said activities and 

lifestyle co-ordinator Laura 

Richmond warned her Sue was 

making up ground in the final 

kilometres. 

“Laura tapped me on the 

shoulders and said: ‘Watch 

this one.’ I had just enough 

to put a wee spurt on,” Doreen 

said. 

The course was “hard work”, 

especially the changing of gears 

on a hill. 

“I remember the supporters 

saying: ‘Change up a gear, 

change up a gear’ as I was going

down the hill. 

“I was struggling to get up a 

gear and I also thought I don’t 

know whether I can stand that 

pressure, if I want to have a little 

bit left at the end,” 

While Doreen had ridden a 

bike as a child going to school, 

her love of cycling awakened 

with a tour of the Otago Central 

Rail Trail in around 2004. 

She feels as fit as she has for a 

long time. 

Three times a week she exercises 

on the treadmill, backed up 

by a 1km swim. 

On other days she completes 

a village gym class before again 

stepping onto the treadmill. 

“I take the weekend off,” she 

laughed. 

The residents and spectators 

in the Christchurch village gym 

have witnessed some stunning 

cycling from the women and 

men, who were motivated in 

part by the Japanese scenery on 

the screen in front of them. 

JUNGLE: A mural painted in 1979 by Linwood High School 

sixth form students Grant Takle and Marcelle Park at the 

former Woolston Park pool could be recreated at Te Pou 

Toetoe: Linwood Pool. 

Mural could be redone 


A JUNGLE-INSPIRED mural 

painted by students in the late- 

1970s could be reimagined at 

Linwood’s newest pool. 

Created at Woolston Park 

pool by Linwood High School 

students in 1979, the mural’s 

recreation is currently being 

considered at Te Pou Toetoe: 

Linwood Pool ahead of its October 

opening. 

Linwood Ward city councillor 

Yani Johanson is keen to see it 

brought back to life so that the 

new facility can reflect a slice of 

the area’s history. 

“Woolston Pool has a significant 

history in terms of its place 

in the community,” he said. 

“It’s important to not lose that 

history, and personally I felt it 

was a nice way to remember and 

acknowledge that there’s a lot of 

special memories people will have.” 

Cr Johanson broached the 

idea with Linwood-Central- 

Heathcote Community Board 

members last week after coming 

across an old black and 

white photo of the mural being 

painted. 

So far the possibilities were 

open in terms of its resurrection, 

including an exact recreation 

or using the photo itself as the 

artwork.

Schools collaboration breaks 

barriers with performance 

A COLLABORATION between 

three high schools aims to break 

down barriers of what it means 

to be a performer. 

Filled with music and dance, 

‘Tukutuku’ was a performance 

put on by students with disabilities 

at Ferndale School, with the 

help of students from Avonside 

Girls’ and Shirley Boys’ high 

schools. 

Tukutuku is a type of Maori 

ornamental weaving, so the 

name was a fitting reference 

for the performance’s theme of 

“weaving three schools together 

as one.” 

“We are grateful to the 

Christchurch Symphony Orchestra 

and the Jolt mixed-ability 

dance group for helping us to 

achieve this,” said Ferndale 

School teacher Jo Allan. 

“The huge support from CSO 

and Jolt enabled the breaking 

down of barriers and the creation 

of meaningful connections 

for all our rangatahi [youth].” 

The high school students 

were supported by the CSO in 

composing two pieces of original 

music. 

JOINT EFFORT: Kaitlyn (above) and Michael (top right) of Ferndale School take to the stage 

with students from Shirley Boys’ and Avonside Girls’ high schools. 

With help from Jolt trust, 

which hosts dance classes for 

people with disabilities, the 

Ferndale students were then able 

to dance to the music crafted 

especially for them. 

The three schools have shared 

the same site since 2019. 

“Three years ago the three 

schools came together on the 

same site and didn’t know 

anything about each other,” said 

Allan. 

“Now, through this unique 

opportunity, we are celebrating 

diversity and inclusion and look 

forward to what we can create in 

the future.”

provides full vehicle servicing to keep your 

vehicle running smoothly, as well as WOFs, 

batteries and tyres. 

He also carries out all mechanical repairs, 

including cam belt replacement, suspension 

work, clutch and gearbox repairs, only 

repairing what’s necessary, and without 

charging the earth. 

He has owned the business since 2007, 

and over that time has established a loyal 

customer base – people that rely on him 

to give them sound advice and provide 

professional care and servicing for their 

vehicles. 

Customers come from across the city, 

Spreydon, Hillmorton, Riccarton, Halswell 

and Middleton areas, and the business has 

received many positive Google reviews 

from customers. Below are some examples: 

I have been going to Parker Automotive 

for the last eight years and I cannot fault the 

service. The mechanical work has been top 

notch! If you want top service and value for 

money I recommend Parker Automotive. –

basic servicing and warrants through to 

major work like clutches, replacement 

coilovers and bushings. Kevin is a very 

honest guy who gets the job done in a very 

timely manor and he has outstanding 

communication. The overall service I’ve 

received is excellent. – Lachlan Poole 

I know it’s not always about price but 

sometimes, when it comes to vehicle repairs, 

you just want a perceived good deal and work 

carried out by someone who seems to care. 

Kevin came recommended by a friend, and 

what a great recommendation. His work was 

clean, efficient, fast and came in under what 

I thought it was going to cost. So we took my 

partner’s car there two days later and that 

too was completed faster than we expected 

and at an almost unbelievable cost. 

Give Parker Automotive a shot next 

time you need something done. Kevin 

is a nice fella too, win win. – Mark 

Lewis 

Earlier this year, Parker Automotive 

moved from premises on the Lincoln 

and Torrens roads corner to a new site 

at 23B Birmingham Drive, Middleton. 

Opening hours are Monday to 

Friday 7.30am-4pm, Saturday 8am-

to help with all your vehicle servicing 

needs.
