Tree hut project<br />

soaring along<br />

MINI APPRENTICE: Aria on the saw helping out with the tree huts in the Avon Ōtākaro River Corridor.<br />

• By Emily Moorhouse<br />

FOR THE last three years,<br />

Banks Avenue School pupils<br />

have been learning, building<br />

and developing a lot of patience<br />

as they work on their tree hut<br />

project.<br />

Now, the end is in sight. The<br />

first platform was put up in the<br />

tree with the others to follow<br />

early next year.<br />

The pupils designed and built<br />

the tree huts to be put up in<br />

Woodchester Ave at the corner<br />

of Medway St and River Rd as<br />

a way to feel connected with<br />

nature and the community.<br />

Child facilitation team<br />

member Emma Woods<br />

from Woodland Escape, a<br />

playground design company,<br />

has been working alongside<br />

the children and said they<br />

have grown more confident in<br />

sharing their ideas.<br />

“They’ve been really patient,”<br />

Woods said. “I believe the<br />

children feel like it’s theirs and<br />

they can see all their ideas<br />

in it.”<br />

The goal was to have all<br />

the huts up in the tree by the<br />

end of the year, but funding<br />

didn’t cover the costs and the<br />

Givealittle page set up didn’t<br />

receive as many donations as<br />

the group had hoped for.<br />

They have raised $255 so far,<br />

towards a goal of $5500.<br />

Christmas<br />

comes early<br />

for bike<br />

fix-up group<br />

• By Emily Moorhouse<br />

A GROUP that repairs and<br />

restores bikes for the community<br />

has received a “pretty nice<br />

Christmas present”.<br />

The Aranui Bike Fixup project<br />

will receive $10,000 of funding<br />

from the city council for taking<br />

community action to reduce<br />

greenhouse gas emissions and live<br />

more sustainably.<br />

The project’s founder Steven<br />

Muir said they had six bikes<br />

stolen last month from one of<br />

their bike library trailers, so the<br />

funding will help to buy parts<br />

for bikes that got donated as<br />

replacements.<br />

The group also has a youth<br />

worker lined up, and Muir said<br />

having funding in place will help.<br />

“A lot of the kids don’t have<br />

much to do, so getting them out<br />

in the weekends and getting them<br />

active is good for their health,” he<br />

said. “We really want to expand<br />

in that area and get kids out<br />

using bikes so that will be a big<br />

part of where the funding will go<br />

towards.”<br />

Muir said being able to keep doing<br />

the workshops every Thursday<br />

and fixing up the hundreds of bikes<br />

they work on every year was great.<br />

He said they are lacking in volunteers<br />

to help fix the bikes and<br />

mentor the kids, so that was an<br />

area they hoped to expand.<br />

The money will come from the<br />

sustainability fund, set up by the<br />

council to encourage community,<br />

school, social enterprise or<br />

business projects that help meet<br />

the city’s climate change goals.<br />

Survey to determine<br />

cockle health in estuary<br />

COMMUNITY volunteers have<br />

rallied to survey the abundance<br />

and size of shellfish in the<br />

estuary.<br />

Groups of volunteers<br />

surveyed 30 sites on the<br />

mudflats along with a boat<br />

survey of eight sites in the<br />

estuary channels.<br />

The Estuary Trust,<br />

together with mana<br />

whenua, Environment<br />

Canterbury, city council,<br />

Canterbury University,<br />

and the Ministry for Primary<br />

Industries are conducting an<br />

extensive scientific survey and<br />

evaluation of tuaki/cockles across<br />

the whole estuary.<br />

“We need to ensure that the<br />

numbers of tuaki/cockles remain<br />

stable (or improve) to restore<br />

cultural values and ensure our<br />

birds have ample food to eat,”<br />

Estuary Trust chairman, Kit<br />

Doudney said.<br />

The estuary has in the past held<br />

high cultural values for mana<br />

whenua.<br />

These qualities were lost during<br />

an extended period of ecological<br />

decline since the establishment<br />

of the city in the 1850s and<br />

confiscation of a Māori reserve<br />

Kit<br />

Doudney<br />

for the oxidation ponds in the<br />

1950s.<br />

The Estuary Trust and its<br />

partners believe that<br />

the community is now<br />

ready to work towards<br />

managing some of these<br />

habitats sustainably,<br />

including the shellfish<br />

beds, so that cultural<br />

values are re-established<br />

and enjoyed by future<br />

generations.<br />

The project is led by<br />

Trust Board members Islay<br />

Marsden, Emeritus Professor in<br />

Marine Biology at Canterbury<br />

University, and ecologist Ann<br />

Kennedy, in support of mana<br />

whenua.<br />

The scientific analysis and<br />

reporting will be carried out by<br />

EOS Ecology.<br />

The results will inform a<br />

future management plan for the<br />

cockles in the estuary and will be<br />

published on the Estuary Trust<br />

website.<br />

EVALUATION: Estuary<br />

Trust members and local<br />

residents assisting in the<br />

survey. ​<br />

In Brief<br />

MOBILITY PARKS<br />

The Coastal-Burwood Community<br />

Board has approved plans to install<br />

two new mobility parking spaces<br />

at the North Beach Surf Club. The<br />

idea was put forward by the North<br />

Beach Residents’ Association. The<br />

club has accessibility mats for those<br />

in wheelchairs but the existing<br />

mobility parks are 90m away from<br />

these, making it difficult for users to<br />

get from their cars to the mats. The<br />

two mobility parking spaces will<br />

replace three regular parking spaces<br />

located outside the toilet block near<br />

the entrance to the club.<br />

BMX CLUB RAISES FUNDS<br />

The North Avon BMX Club raised<br />

their goal of $30,000 for a new<br />

asphalt pump track to be installed<br />

at Bexley Reserve. The club hit their<br />

crowdfunding target a few days<br />

before deadline so a stretch goal of<br />

$40,000 was implemented. The club<br />

ended up raising $33,550 in total.<br />

Club president Mark Lewis said<br />

the team knew it was an ambitious<br />

project but to see the level of commitment<br />

from the wider community<br />

was amazing. The club hopes to<br />

start designing the construction by<br />

April.<br />

CYCLE PROJECT FUNDING<br />

The Aranui Bike Fix Up project will<br />

receive $10,000 of funding from the<br />

city council. The project is focused<br />

on getting people in Aranui and the<br />

surrounding areas into cycling and<br />

cycle maintenance and repair.<br />

Expansion plans under way<br />

• From page 1<br />

Instead, Woods and Carvell<br />

pushed to get the main platform<br />

up in the tree so the kids<br />

involved for the last three years<br />

would get the chance to play in<br />

it before moving onto intermediate<br />

school.<br />

“We needed to honour<br />

their work and commitment<br />

and get that part up,” Woods<br />

said.<br />

“Hopefully early next year<br />

we can add in the other parts.”<br />

Woods has been looking into<br />

other funding they can apply<br />

for and is confident the final<br />

parts of the hut will be up early<br />

next year.<br />

Personal Pathways for Success<br />

This year our Linwood College at Ōtakōro students have<br />

received an unprecedented total of $83,000 in scholarship<br />

funding from the University of Otago.<br />

Jasmine Keating received the Māori Entrance<br />

Scholarship of $13,000 over two years,<br />

Phoenix Evans received the Māori Entrance<br />

Scholarship of $13,000 over two years, Ranalia<br />

Savelio received the Pacific Peoples’ Entrance<br />

Scholarship of $13,000 over two years and<br />

Becky Bennett received the Otago Pathway<br />

Scholarship with a value of $5,000.<br />

Linwood College at Ōtākaro has cultivated extremely<br />

beneficial relationships for our students with our<br />

local and other universities. This year our Careers<br />

Department has been working alongside Otago’s<br />

Liaison Officer, Prajesh Chhanabhai, resulting in an<br />

unprecedented amount of scholarships being offered<br />

to our graduating seniors. We have seen a wonderful<br />

number of students offered a total of $83,000 towards<br />

their study at the university. The majority of these<br />

students are intending to study Health Sciences at<br />

Otago, while Jasmine Keating will be focusing on<br />

Education with a major in Māori. This is an exciting<br />

result for our Careers Department in connecting and<br />

advocating for our ākonga in their chosen fields.<br />

Discovering, establishing, and staying the course<br />

of a student’s pathway has always been an integral<br />

focus of our school. It is fitting that the name of our<br />

new rebuilt school, conceptualized and gifted to us<br />

by Ngāi Tūāhuriri, will be Te Aratai College, meaning<br />

Pathway to the Sea. We often use the allegory of<br />

the braided river to inform our students of creating<br />

their educational purpose, finding their own distinct<br />

tributary through all that the riverbed can teach us.<br />

Within our curriculum there is much we do to engender<br />

our ākonga with their chosen futures. Both our junior<br />

and senior school use Career Central to make<br />

their subject choices. Career Central is software<br />

developed here in Aotearoa that utilizes career<br />

development theory based on input from schools,<br />

businesses and institutions all over the country. It<br />

manages a student’s subject choices, maps them<br />

throughout their schooling, and offers classes that<br />

align to their chosen career pathways. Students<br />

make these choices in our Ako classes, LCŌ’s<br />

version of a vertical form class. These classes have<br />

students of every year level, enabling conversations<br />

about subjects and experiences across the school,<br />

junior to senior.<br />

Students attending the Rotary National Science<br />

and Technology Forum.<br />

Student pathways are also discovered and explored<br />

through our extensive EOTC (Education outside<br />

the classroom) programmes. These knees-deep,<br />

hands-on experiences send students beyond the<br />

school gates. Among these are our Level 3 Business<br />

students going to Ara to pitch ideas in a dragon’s<br />

den-style competition and compete in the Lion<br />

Foundation Youth Enterprise awards. Our Level 2<br />

Tourism classes travel to Queenstown and Hamner<br />

to visit tourism operators and locations. We send<br />

our Year 12 Science students to the Rotary National<br />

Science and Technology Forum for high achieving<br />

Year 12 STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering<br />

and Mathematics) students who are interested<br />

in exploring where these subjects can take them<br />

through to university and beyond. We have a tour<br />

to the University of Otago where students meet<br />

lecturers, deans and OU students to discuss courses<br />

and varsity life.<br />

It is in these excursions that our students and<br />

faculty have created the connections and ongoing<br />

relationships that have helped garner such an<br />

impressive scholarship result for our seniors moving<br />

into tertiary education. We watch, with eager eyes,<br />

to see what possibilities and potential their pathways<br />

may realize.<br />

IAN MORRIS has been<br />

looking after Victoria Park’s<br />

visitor centre gardens for more<br />

than 20 years as a volunteer<br />

ranger.<br />

Three days a week Ian slogs<br />

up Dyers Pass Rd on his push<br />

bike to tend to the gardens<br />

and his efforts have been<br />

recognised by his fellow park<br />

rangers.<br />

They surprised Ian with<br />

a new electric bike to help<br />

him with his ride to the park,<br />

describing him as an “absolute<br />

legend.”<br />

Delighted by the generosity<br />

of the gift, Ian named the bike<br />

Black Beauty before taking it<br />

for a quick spin.<br />

“I can get rid of all my old<br />

bikes now,’’ he said.<br />

Ranger Nigel Morritt, who<br />

works closely with Ian, told<br />

him the bike was a small<br />

thank you for all his years of<br />

hard work.<br />

“You’re a very important<br />

part of our little family up<br />

here,” he said.<br />

“You are an absolute<br />

legend. We just want to<br />

say thanks because you have<br />

done an awful lot of work for<br />

us and you are a very special<br />

person.’’<br />

City council parks<br />

GENEROSITY: Ian Morris with ranger Nigel Morritt and<br />

other council rangers gifting him his e-bike.<br />

programmes and partnerships<br />

manager Kate Russell said<br />

Ian has special intellectual<br />

needs but he has never let that<br />

slow him down and he’s an<br />

inspiration to the park rangers<br />

and other volunteers.<br />

“Like all of us, Ian isn’t<br />

getting any younger and it<br />

has been getting harder for<br />

him to make the ride up to<br />

Victoria Park,” she said.<br />

“He loves the routine of<br />

coming to the park and it’s<br />

really good for his well-being,<br />

so we decided it was time Ian<br />

went electric.”<br />

Russell said with an e-bike,<br />

Ian can remain part of the<br />

team at Victoria Park and<br />

stay connected to the cycling<br />

community on the Port Hills.<br />

Ian will still be able to ride up<br />

Dyers Pass Rd, but it will be<br />

gentler on his body.<br />

“The bike is Ian’s gateway to<br />

the world so having an e-bike<br />

will also make his day-to-day<br />

life easier and help him stay<br />

connected with his family,”<br />

said Russell.<br />

Russell said the park rangers<br />

set up a Givealittle page to<br />

raise money for the e-bike and<br />

persuaded Ecoquip NZ Ltd to<br />

donate an accessory package<br />

to go with it.<br />

A significant number of the<br />

donations received through<br />

the Givealittle page came<br />

from the mountain biking<br />

community who shared the<br />

campaign link on their social<br />

media networks.<br />

School Update<br />

Manukura Kōrero<br />

SCAPE art <strong>2021</strong><br />

Ma whero ma pango ka oti ai te mahi<br />

With red and black the work will be complete<br />

With only a few days to go until Christmas it is nice to take<br />

a breath and take the time to reflect on everything we<br />

have achieved as a kura this year. There have been many<br />

wero along the way and as a kura we have weathered the<br />

storm of COVID-19 Lockdown and an unprecedented<br />

need for online learning. Together we have invented a new<br />

normal. Through all of this turmoil we never lost sight of<br />

our ultimate goal - ākonga success and achievement at all<br />

levels - in all things.<br />

With the drawing to a close of the <strong>2021</strong> school year I<br />

want to take this opportunity to thank our Haeata kaimahi<br />

and ākonga and our Board, for what has been an amazing<br />

year. My congratulations also go to kaimahi and ākonga in<br />

the senior kura for their outstanding results in NCEA this<br />

year. There are few kura that can say they achieved 120%<br />

improvement at Level 1 NCEA in just one year, but ākonga<br />

at Haeata have done just that. There are few kura that can<br />

say they quadrupled their Credits at Excellence level at<br />

Level three of NCEA, but ākonga at Haeata have done just<br />

that. There are very few kura that can lay claim to winning<br />

90% of the sporting competitions their teams were entered<br />

into across all sporting codes, but ākonga at Haeata have<br />

done just that. There are few kura that can show that<br />

ākonga attendance rates improved by 40% across the<br />

board, but ākonga at Haeata have done just that.<br />

Sadly, last week we farewelled our Year 13 cohort at<br />

senior prize giving. These amazing rangatahi leave us with<br />

a real sense of pride in their achievement and a very clear<br />

focus on their next steps. Many are off to tertiary study,<br />

some to apprenticeships, and others to their very first fulltime<br />

job. As a kura we wish them all the very best for the<br />

future. I would like to thank our ākonga leaders for their<br />

service to Haeata and wish them every success. We know<br />

all our rangatahi leaving in <strong>2021</strong> will return to Haeata in the<br />

future, to stand on what is assuredly their tūrangawaewae.<br />

I would also like to take this opportunity to congratulate<br />

our ākonga leaders for 2022:<br />

We are excited to work with you all as we set off on the<br />

next stage of our educational journey together.<br />

As we contemplate our new normal under COVID-19 in<br />

2022 and organise new ways of managing ourselves under<br />

the new Traffic Light system, the one thing we need to<br />

keep in mind is the need for a real break over the holidays.<br />

Please take the time to rest, rejuvenate and restore. 2022<br />

will be an exciting year for us all and we have much to look<br />

forward to.<br />

Earlier this year students<br />

from Year 7, 8 and 9<br />

entered their designs for<br />

a public artwork in the<br />

Re:ACTIVATE Aspiring<br />

Artist opportunity. Last<br />

week we got the great<br />

news that one of the<br />

entries was one of two<br />

shortlisted from nearly<br />

200 entries, and was on<br />

exhibition on Level 1 at<br />

Tūranga, Christchurch<br />

Central Library on Friday<br />

<strong>December</strong> 3rd.<br />

The design Aulelei (Beautiful) by Hadassah Timo, Brooklyn<br />

Tuiloma and Queen Faagase of Year 9 was inspired by the<br />

Samoan ceremonial headdress Tuiga.<br />

“This year there was an outstanding level of excellence in<br />

the entries received, and to be shortlisted is a significant<br />

achievement. We are very proud of your students who<br />

put their designs forward in this opportunity, and delighted<br />

to exhibit this work. The selection panel of judges were<br />

very impressed by this wonderful, creative design, please<br />

congratulate these students on their great work.” Josie<br />

Climate change & council<br />

Very proud of our ākonga who graduated<br />

from Children’s University this morning at<br />

junior assembly.<br />

Te Mātāpuna Mātātahi | Children’s<br />

University aims to raise young people’s<br />

aspirations for higher education and<br />

encourage lifelong learning. The University<br />

of Canterbury and Lincoln University<br />

are working in partnership to deliver the<br />

programme, which is the first of its kind in<br />

New Zealand.<br />

They fill the passport with hours of<br />

learning or volunteering outside the school<br />

classroom. The passport is stamped<br />

by registered Learning Destinations or<br />

volunteering organisations. Once 30 hours<br />

of learning or volunteering are reached,<br />

students are invited to attend a graduation<br />

ceremony to celebrate their<br />

achievements.<br />

This year we had ākonga graduate with 30<br />

-60 hours, 100 hours and our top ākonga<br />

graduated with over 400 hours.<br />

Katahi nā koutou.<br />

The Year 9 and 10 students have done significant<br />

work learning about climate change this year.<br />

Many of our students are passionate about this<br />

issue and motivated to find ways to make a real<br />

change. Four of our ākonga were privileged to be<br />

invited by Christchurch City Council to contribute<br />

their voice to a group of young people from<br />

various schools from the east side and other<br />

low lying or coastal areas. This incredible group<br />

of young people met at council and worked<br />

together to prepare a submission to present to<br />

council around the council’s long term planning<br />

for climate change. I was in awe listening to their<br />

ideas and opinions, voiced in such a respectful<br />

manner, as they worked with students from<br />

other schools to decide their priorities and key<br />

points for submission. The students then went<br />

to council chambers, voiced their collective<br />

ideas to the councillors present and voted on<br />

the final wording on their submission. I have<br />

such incredible respect for these brave and<br />

articulate ākonga, who were able to stand<br />

up and be a voice for young people in our<br />

community.<br />

Helping each<br />

other through<br />

COVID-19<br />

With more cases of COVID-19 in the community, it’s possible you and your whānau<br />

will be exposed to the virus. To make sure you’re ready, have a plan in case you or<br />

someone in your house tests positive and needs to isolate.<br />

Everyone who tests positive for COVID-19, and those who live with them, will need to<br />

isolate for at least 10 days to stop the spread of the virus. If someone else in your house<br />

tests positive for COVID-19, they’ll be advised how much longer they need to isolate.<br />

Make a plan<br />

If you’re travelling and away from home, know how you will<br />

get home or self isolate where you are.<br />

While isolating, you will need to have all of your food and<br />

necessities delivered. You cannot go to work, school, church<br />

or any community or private events or gatherings. No one<br />

outside of the people you live with can visit or enter the home.<br />

Most fully-vaccinated people with COVID-19 are likely to have<br />

a mild to moderate illness and will fully recover at home.<br />

Who can help out<br />

Be prepared in case you’re exposed to COVID-19. Speak with<br />

a neighbour, friend, or whānau about the support you could<br />

need. For instance, dropping off food and supplies, and help<br />

with activities outside the house. Being ready is about people,<br />

conversations, connections and knowing what to do, so your<br />

whānau and community can help each other when needed.<br />

Support while isolating<br />

It’s normal to feel anxious about isolating with COVID-19.<br />

You’ll have a support person who will contact you often<br />

to check that you and your whānau are safe and supported<br />

– even if you’re travelling and away from home. You will also<br />

get a telephone number for 24-hour health support.<br />

If you need more help or support to manage at home,<br />

you can access a COVID-19 welfare line.<br />

What you’ll need<br />

To help you get through, you will need to have food,<br />

medications and supplies available to you. Find a detailed<br />

checklist to help you prepare at Covid19.govt.nz/prepare<br />

Check what support is available for self-isolating at home<br />

and find more preparation tips at Covid19.govt.nz/prepare
