into the community to undertake 

a variety of tasks for a couple of 

hours,” she said.

Bexley landfill clean-up welcomed 


RESIDENTS associations are 

relieved the contaminated 

Bexley landfill site will finally be 

cleaned up. 

“Thank goodness,” was the 

response from New Brighton 

Residents Association 

chairwoman Celeste Donovan 

when she heard 

the city council 

has come up 

with a plan to 

prevent the 

old Bexley 

dump from 

Celeste 

Donovan 

continuing 

to spill waste 

into the Avon- 

Heathcote Estuary. 

THe council will spend $1.5 

million to try and contain the 

rubbish that Donovan said 

residents have been complaining 

about for years. 

“THey are worried about the 

items floating in the estuary and 

water leaching out from the old 

dump. 

“Most of the rubbish has 

remained on the shore on the 

other side of the estuary where 

the public are excluded, but they 

would be shocked at some of the 

stuff embedded in the shoreline 

mud there.” 

Donovan said 30 years of

rubbish dumped in Bexley was 

always going to come back and 

haunt the community one day 

as the tidal changes created 

by the quakes have had a part 

to play in exposing debris still 

years away from breaking 

down, and “there is some pretty 

environmentally-nasty stuff 

buried there.” 

“Coastal residents, particularly 

along Southshore and South New 

Brighton, will be pleased gravel 

and rocks will be used to bulk 

up the edge and the creation of a 

natural beach will help. 

“But we believe that is only 

a temporary fix and a more 

Cushla’s Pop Up Shop 

Patchwork & Quilting 

Christchurch - September 2021 

permanent solution needs to 

be found as climate change will 

no doubt have a future impact,” 

Donovan said. 

THe city council resource 

recovery manager Ross Trotter 

said work has started and a 

contractor has been appointed 

to do initial work at the closed 

Bexley landfill. 

“It involves clearing 

undergrowth to prevent birds 

from land-nesting prior to the 

start of the nesting season and 

felling trees to give machinery 

access to the foreshore.” 

South Brighton Residents’ 

Association chairman Hugo 

Kristinsson said it has been a 

significant relief to see the work 

starting. 

“It’s been a problem for years 

and now they are finally fixing 

the mistakes of the past, we are 

fully supportive of the council 

and it’s good to see them start,” 

he said. 

THe city council’s remediation 

plan also includes the Burwood 

Resource Recovery Park. 

THe park was established to 

take construction and demolition 

waste following the earthquakes 

but is now being progressively 

closed with a view to returning it 

to a recreational area. 

NO ENTRY: Deep 

water and 

bio-hazard signs 

at Bexley’s old 

landfill site. 

Just one area is still accepting 

contaminated soils. 

“Council has made an 

application for resource 

consent allowing for low-level 

contaminated soils at Burwood 

Site C until June 30, 2024,” 

Trotter said. 

Final landscaping work on 

another three sites within the 

park is continuing. 

THe city council will spend 

another $1 million removing the 

former Le Bons Bay landfill on 

Banks Peninsula and work 

is planned to fix former 

landfills at Onuku and Barrys 

Bay later this year.

School Update 

Manukura Kōrero 

He taonga rongonui te aroha ki te tangata 

Goodwill towards others is a precious treasure 

Tēnā Koutou Katoa. Malo ‘etau lava. 

We returned to kura just over a week ago and it feels great 

to be back. Lockdown was hard for 

everyone and being away from kura 

for three weeks was a challenge on 

every level. A huge congratulations 

to all of our ākonga for the amazing 

mahi they completed during 

Lockdown. Our senior ākonga are 

to be commended for the amazing 

effort put in to meet their NCEA 

commitments and deadlines! 

We thank our kaimahi/staff for their 

unparalleled support of ākonga throughout lockdown. 

Their creativity, motivation and dedication resulted in 

many innovative lessons being provided on-line and some 

outstanding mahi/work being produced across the kura. 

With the continued Level 4 Lockdown in Auckland we are 

very aware that we must be vigilant each and every day at 

kura. A chain is only as strong as its weakest link and as we 

have seen in Auckland it only takes one person to break 

the rules and it has implications for us all. Ākonga are not 

required to wear masks at kura but they are expected to 

be careful to observe the 2 metre rule for social distancing 

as often as possible. As well, it is important that all ākonga 

observe diligent hand-hygiene throughout the day. 

Vaccination is a controversial issue in Aotearoa New 

Zealand at the moment. The Haeata board does not insist 

that ākonga and kaimahi are vaccinated, but as a kura we 

are working with the Ministry of Education and Ministry 

of Health to ensure whānau are supported to make an 

informed decision about the merits of the vaccine. 

Please check our Facebook Page to read about our 

“Crush COVID” competition. 

Patua te taniwha o te whakama 

Do not let shyness overcome you 

If you want to enter our “Crush COVID Competition” 

all you have to do is bring in your whanau’s proof of 

vaccination cards (two injections required), any time from 

now until Friday, 29 OCTOBER 2021 to be in to win! 

There will be three draws of $200 each. 

I want to commend our ākonga for their fantastic success in 

Winter Sports. We are proud of their efforts and have been 

working with all codes on the “Rise UP” initiative, which 

explores the issue of Racism in Sport. Over the coming 

weeks we will be sharing ākonga voice with our community 

to highlight the many challenges they face when they take 

the field or the court to represent us. 

It is hard to believe that Term 3 is all but over. We look 

forward to a well earned break in the October holidays, 

because Lockdown was never that. When we return in 

Term 4 our focus is on NCEA assessment in the senior 

kura and the establishment of our new kura waenga, which 

launches in 2022 and introduces a new era of intermediate 

education at Haeata. 

Kia kaha, kia toa, kia manawanui.

Over lockdown, many ākonga and their whānau

delivered to ākonga. Here are some photos of the 

amazing learning our ākonga did. We can identify

home learning. The kaupapa that we have been 

focusing on for our Rakaihaututanga (inquiry based 

learning) has been about pūrakau / stories and 

includes fairytales and our local Aranui history. 

Other challenges included exploring the back yard 

and areas within the community and time spent 

with whānau. All the Kaiako enjoyed connecting 

with ākonga and their whānau via phone, text, 

Google Classroom, Zoom, Facetime and email over 

lockdown to support learning. A big mihi to our 

whānau for supporting their child’s learning at home 

over lockdown.

learn from challenges along the way. 

Congratulations to the boys on becoming this year’s

Work begins

SHELTER PLANNED: An artists impression of the shelter areas proposed for the Dallington Landing on the Avon River. 

IMAGE: NEWSLINE 

Work on community picnic area under way 

WORK HAS started to turning 

part of the former Dallington 

red zone into a new community 

picnic area. 

The $2.3 million Dallington 

riverside landing will be constructed 

next to Gayhurst Rd 

and is the first of several landings 

to be built along the Avon 

River. 

Council head of parks Andrew 

Rutledge said the theme for the 

landing will be “a picnic in the 

forest.” 

It has been designed to encourage 

people to connect with 

each other, the river and the 

Avon River Corridor Regeneration 

Area, he said. 

“It’s exciting to be at the point 

where physical work is starting 

and people can see first-hand 

the regeneration area transforming. 

“Volunteers are in the process 

of planting a native forest on 

the opposite side of Gayhurst 

Rd, and the first of the three 

pedestrian bridges at Avondale is 

progressing well.” 

The Dallington landing will 

feature shelters, koru-shaped 

pathways, picnic areas, tables, 

steps down to the river, a water 

fountain, a bike stand, and a 

wheelchair-accessible toilet 

block. 

Work is expected to be finished 

by June next year and this 

takes into account the planting 

seasons required for new vegetation, 

Rutledge said. 

The landing, as well as three 

pedestrian bridges across the 

Avon River, are funded by a 

$13.7 million grant from the 

Christchurch Earthquake Appeal 

Trust. 

The 11km, 345ha Green Spine 

in the Avon River Regeneration 

Area extends along both sides of 

the river and will be restored to 

original native forest and wetlands. 

It will also contain nature 

trails, cycleways, landings and 

community spaces. 

WORK HAS started on the 2ha 

childrens accessible woodland 

playground at Rawhiti Domain, 

after five years of planning. 

Contractor Creative Intentions 

owner Geg Howell said the work 

came together very quickly after 

years in the making. 

“This is only the start of what 

the community can do with this 

space,” he said. 

The pathway around the site is 

wide enough for two wheelchairs 

to move side by side, while the 

open space at the front will have 

equipment for children of all 

physical abilities. 

The woodland area will have 

physically challenging activities to 

get children back to nature. 

More fundraising will be 

needed to fully complete the 

playground, but the current work 

should be finished by Christmas.

Yachties tacking ahead for competitive 


AN EASTERLY wind made 

racing fun at the Pleasant 

Point Yacht Clubs 101 st season 

opening held last Saturday at 

South Brighton. 

About 50 members and 

guests joined in the opening 

ceremony before 17 crews and 

their yachts tackled the blustery 

conditions in an assortment 

of multi-hulls, trailer and 

sunburst yachts. 

Club official Nigel Humphrey 

said it was a great turnout for 

the start of the season as the 

yachts took their turn at 

lining up for the Mark Foy 

handicap formatted race, 

whereby the slowest starts first 

for the hour and a half race 

around the estuary at South 

Brighton. 

In the multi-hull race for 

the Eric Orange trophy, Ian 

Douglas and Simon Thompson 

won aboard Iznerz, a Weta 

trimaran, from James Cains 

in Neva Weta, while in the 

Pet Cup Noémi Gulliver 

and Graeme Hore were first 

aboard Tafua (Sunburst class). 

In the Nina Mander trophy 

Dan O’Sullivan in Humbug 

(Firebug) was first from Arthur 

Mahon in Aphid (Firebug). 

HELPING HAND: Brigid Sheen helps Ruaraidh Forster, 14, rig

No dog racing at QE II 


DOG RACING will not return 

to QE II Park after Greyhound 

Racing NZ’s proposal was 

rejected by the Coastal- 

Burwood-Community Board on 

Monday. 

Board chairman Kelly Barber 

said they decided to exclude the 

GRNZ’s proposal after a huge 

amount of feedback from the 

community. 

“The trend is to move away 

from this sort of industry and 

we didn’t want to waste GRNZ’s 

time continuing with the process. 

“It made sense and at the end 

of the day we want to do what 

the people want for the area,” 

he said. 

Since 2019 the city council 

has been consulting with the 

public on its $12 million draft 

Master Plan for the 36ha QE 

II Park site, as they sought any 

commercial proposals concerning 

the south-west corner of the 

park adjacent to the Travis and 

Frost Rds intersection. 

Three proposals were filed and 

they included the Christchurch 

Archery Club seeking an outdoor 

archery range and indoor 

archery training, and Five 

Under Par Ltd proposing an $11 

million amusement/sporting 

complex. 

Said archery club president 

Dave Henshaw: “They didn’t renew 

our Rawhiti Domain lease 

this year after almost 30 years 

on the site so we are hoping they 

are looking for somewhere else 

for us to train.” 

Community board deputy 

chairwoman Jo Zervos said all 

three proposals needed careful 

consideration. 

“The Five Under Par proposal 

has been around for a long 

time, I think this venture 

would make up for some of 

what the community has lost, 

and archery need to find a new 

venue so it would great if they 

can stay local,” she said.

Apples Never Fall 

by liane moriarty 

The Delaney family love one another dearly—it’s just that sometimes they want to murder 

each other... If your mother was missing, would you tell the police? Even if the most 

obvious suspect was your father? This is the dilemma facing the four grown Delaney 

siblings. The Delaneys are fixtures in their community. The parents, Stan and Joy, are the 

envy of all of their friends. The four Delaney children—Amy, Logan, Troy, and Brooke— 

were tennis stars in their own right, yet as their father will tell you, none of them had what 

it took to go all the way. But that’s okay, now that they’re all successful grown-ups and 

there is the wonderful possibility of grandchildren on the horizon. An incident happens 

with a stranger named Savannah and later Joy goes missing, and Savannah is nowhere 

to be found, the police question the one person who remains: Stan. But for someone who 

claims to be innocent, he, like many spouses, seems to have a lot to hide. Two of the 

Delaney children think their father is innocent, two are not so sure—but as the two sides 

square off against each other in perhaps their biggest match ever, all of the Delaneys will 

start to reexamine their shared family history in a very new light.

allows the views available through the window to take centre-stage. Open-plan lounge and dining and 

built-in cabinetry allow for effortless entertaining and the kitchen has been designed with timeless 

modern demands in mind; ample storage, contemporary appliances, stone-topped benches, and 

natural timber all add to the appeal of the space.

OUR STORY | KIERAN BALL 

Born and bred in Christchurch, and growing up in East Christchurch, Kieran 

knows this town inside out. His personal drive is second to none. All prior jobs 

have involved helping people and building positive relationships. Having 

recently purchased his own first home, he has a special empathy for other first 

home buyers. Sellers can also trust his drive and determination: he brings a large 

personality with a trusting presence to the table. 

“My goal is to make your Real Estate experience fun, exciting and memorable 

while maintaining the utmost professionalism.” 

KIERAN BALL 

021 281 1220 | kieran@homechch.co.nz 

What made you want to jump into the world of real 

estate? 

I previously worked in a gym and one of my clients was a 

top Christchurch agent. He convined me I would make a 

good agent so when the first lockdown brought our travel 

plans to a halt I decided to jump in head first! 

Can you remember your first sale? 

Definitely, 1/435 Madras Street! I’d like to give a special 

thanks to my friends who not only trusted my ability on a 

first sale and now have engaged me to sell their next 

home. 

What was most memorable when you purchased your 

first home? 

Not getting a gift, thank you or any appreciated from the 

selling agent. It was a great lesson on what not to do! 

Do you have any advice for someone considering a 

career in real estate? 

Your first office may not be your last. Be prepared to 

struggle, it’s not easy work but very rewarding. Work with 

people who genuinely care about you and don’t become 

you’re not. 

If you had to choose an alternative career path, what 

would it be? 

I’ve had a wide range of experiences already but if real 

estate was no longer on the cards I’d most likely apply for 

a role with the police. 

Ok, now let’s have some fun. What’s the most awkward 

thing that happens to you on a regular basis? 

Being 6’6 it’s reasonably obvious - hitting my head on 

things! 

Would it be wrong to assume you play basketball? 

No, you’re spot on. I play for a local team, UC Men’s Prems 

and I follow the LA Lakers. 

Who do you idolise and why? 

My Dad. I can’t even begin to find the words to describe 

how much he’s done for me and my family. 

Summer is coming, where are you looking forward 

visiting in Canterbury once the sun is shinning? 

Taylors Mistake is first on the list, as soon as it’s warm 

enough. 

What is your favourite eatery in Christchurch? 

Little High - specifically Bacon Brothers. 

You’re left alone on a resort island, you can take one 

book, one album & one film - what do you chose? 

David Goggins, Can’t Hurt Me | John Mayer, Room for 

Squares | Coach Carter 

And finally, what is your greatest achievement to date? 

Purchasing my first home with my partner Tia.
