‘Miraculous’<br />
return<br />
of<br />
Puff<br />
• By Fiona Ellis<br />
THREE DAYS after going missing,<br />
Simone Li is calling the return of<br />
her adventurous pet cockatiel Puff<br />
a miracle.<br />
She was overjoyed to stop by<br />
Harewood School to collect the<br />
bird, who was found making new<br />
friends at the school after going<br />
missing from Wigram.<br />
“We were all shocked by the<br />
distance she flew, especially in such<br />
horrible weather,” Li said.<br />
It was about 10km (as the<br />
cockatiel flies).<br />
It was the first outing for the<br />
hand-raised pet, who flew out<br />
a door that was open for a split<br />
second.<br />
“We were afraid she could not<br />
survive from the rain, could be<br />
eaten by cats, or could die because<br />
of hunger and cold.”<br />

Plan for<br />
pedestrian<br />
islands a bid<br />
to improve<br />
safety on<br />
busy road<br />
• By Fiona Ellis<br />
A PLAN to install pedestrian<br />
islands in the middle of Langdons<br />
Rd has been approved with the<br />
support of 73 per cent of public<br />
submitters.<br />
However, this alone will<br />
not solve the<br />
traffic problems,<br />
according to<br />
Papanui-Innes<br />
Community Board<br />
members and<br />
submitters alike.<br />
THe board<br />
approved the<br />
installation of two<br />
10.5m islands,<br />
Mike<br />
Davidson<br />
one opposite Northlink shopping<br />
centre and one further along past<br />
the intersection with Sails St.<br />
Papanui Ward councillor<br />
Mike Davidson said it would not<br />
solve all issues but was a step in<br />
the right direction as increasing<br />
development made conditions<br />
worse. Conditions were difficult<br />
for pedestrians, cyclists and<br />
drivers alike.<br />
“We’ve seen the traffic that’s<br />
being generated down there, and<br />
it doesn’t feel safe,” Davidson said.<br />
City council acting transport<br />
operations manager Stephen<br />
Wright told Nor’west <strong>News</strong> the last<br />
traffic count in Langdons Rd near<br />
Sails St in took place in Feburary<br />
2021. • Turn to page 4<br />

Great teamwork pays off<br />
for Young Farmer winners<br />
• By Fiona Ellis<br />
STRONG teamwork is the key<br />
to success for two St Bede’s<br />
College students who have won a<br />
regional farming competition.<br />
Year 12 students Jack Dennehy-Coles<br />
and Finn O’Kane have<br />
been named Tasman FMG Junior<br />
Young Farmers of the Year.<br />
Jack said they had done so well<br />
in the Springston competition<br />
on Saturday because they were a<br />
good combination.<br />
“We complement each other<br />
well and we work together well,”<br />
he said.<br />
His strong points were dairy<br />
farming and practical tasks,<br />
whereas Finn was stronger on<br />
scientific tasks, he said.<br />
Both are boarders, with Jack<br />
coming from a dairy farm on<br />
the West Coast and Finn from a<br />
dairy farm near Timaru.<br />
Next for the duo was the grand<br />
final competition, set to be held<br />
in Whangarei in July.<br />
“If we prepare well, we could<br />
have a pretty good chance going<br />
into it,” Jack said.<br />
Finn said the competition was<br />
challenging at times.<br />
A beekeeping module was difficult<br />
as it was a subject neither of<br />
them knew much about, so they<br />
went by “gut instincts,” he said.<br />
“It was a bit of a surprise, I<br />
didn’t think we’d do as well as<br />
we did.”<br />
Saint Bede’s College agriculture<br />
teacher and team supervisor<br />
John McPhail said the boys had<br />
a relatively short lead-in time to<br />
prepare for the competition.<br />
“I heard they were up quite late<br />
last night reading through different<br />
notes and cramming a bit of<br />
study,” he said.<br />
“It was a tight turnaround this<br />
year because we’d only been back<br />
at school for two weeks before<br />
entries were due.”<br />
McPhail has coached two<br />
teams to grand final success, taking<br />
out the national title of FMG<br />
Junior Young Farmer of the Year<br />
in 2018 and 2020.<br />
“ I will prepare them as best<br />
as I can for what to expect when<br />
you get there. They just have to<br />
go out there and do the best they<br />
can,” he said.<br />
Under the red light system,<br />
each event at the regional final<br />
was held separately and capped<br />
at 35 teams on rotation to comply<br />
with the 100 person capacity<br />
limit.<br />
Amelia Ridgen and Erin<br />
Humm from Christchurch Girls’<br />
High School were named as<br />
the region’s runner-ups for the<br />
second year running.<br />

FUNDING DEADLINE<br />
EXTENDED<br />
Groups who have applied for<br />
Summer With Your Neighbours<br />
funding for community events<br />
will be allowed an extension until<br />
June to seek reimbursement, the<br />
Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood<br />
Community Board has decided.<br />
The board acknowledged the<br />
community might be nervous<br />
to hold an event in the current<br />
pandemic circumstances.<br />
LEASE GRANTED TO<br />
KINDERGARTEN<br />
The Papanui-Innes Community<br />
Board has granted a 33-year<br />
ground lease to a Mairehau<br />
kindergarten for an annual rent<br />
of $404.44 plus GST. Canterbury<br />
Westland Kindergarten<br />
Association Incorporated was<br />
granted the lease for Kidsfirst<br />
Kindergartens MacFarlane Park.<br />
The kindergarten did not have<br />
a current lease, with the land<br />
now classified as a local purpose<br />
(community building) reserve,<br />
according to a city council report.<br />

helps with<br />
Puff’s safe<br />
return<br />
• From page 1<br />
Li was devastated by the disappearance<br />
of the bird, which used to follow<br />
her about the house like a dog.<br />
She took the day off work to look<br />
for Puff, alongside partner Ivan<br />
Yu, but heavy rain made the search<br />
difficult.<br />
After looking around the<br />
neighbourhood on foot and by car,<br />
the couple turned their focus to<br />
Facebook, where Li posted photos<br />
of Puff to ‘Lost & Found Pets in<br />
Christchurch’ with photos and<br />
a message offering $100 for her<br />
return.<br />
Li had lost hope by the third day<br />
when several people alerted her to a<br />
post from Harewood School, where<br />
a “very friendly” pet bird had been<br />
found. She recognised the bird as<br />
Puff by details such as a dark beak<br />
and two broken tail feathers.<br />
Li’s photos and videos proved to<br />
the school it was Puff, as did the<br />
reaction of the bird. Puff jumped to<br />
her usual spot on Li’s shoulder and<br />
began biting her finger and glasses.<br />
“This miracle happened because<br />
of everyone’s support on the internet<br />
and real life.<br />
“We really appreciated everything<br />
and felt so warm be in such a<br />
wonderful community,” Li said.<br />
Majority of submitters approve plan<br />
• From page 1<br />
It showed a daily average traffic<br />
level of 11, 713 vehicles per<br />
day.<br />
“Prior to the development<br />
opening a traffic count undertaken<br />
in March 2020 at the same<br />
location recorded [an average] of<br />
8,682 vehicles per day,” he said.<br />
A report contained in the<br />
meeting agenda stated the wider<br />
area was being investigated by<br />
the city council’s network planning<br />
team.<br />
This included the possibility<br />
of signalised intersections and a<br />
signalised entrance and pedestrian<br />
crossing to the shopping<br />
centre.<br />
However,<br />
such changes<br />
are unlikely to<br />
occur anytime<br />
soon.<br />
“Nothing<br />
is confirmed<br />
Emma<br />
Norrish<br />
at this stage<br />
and any such<br />
treatments are<br />
beyond the<br />
traffic operations team’s budget<br />
capabilities.”<br />
Public submissions on the<br />
planned islands closed in<br />
December, with 37 people<br />
taking the chance to voice their<br />
opinions, 27 in favour of the<br />
plans.<br />
Board chairwoman Emma<br />
Norrish said she was pleased to<br />
see positive public feedback.<br />
BUSY: Langdons Rd could soon have pedestrian islands in place.<br />
“We all know about the<br />
safety issues on Langdons Rd<br />
and it is going to take a lot to<br />
fix them, but this is a quick<br />
win.”<br />
Issues raised in the submissions<br />
included the need for<br />
traffic signals and signalised<br />
crossings, cycle safety, and visibility<br />
issues at the intersection<br />
of Chapel St and Langdons Rd.<br />
Submitter Sheryl Croft was<br />
among those who predicted the<br />
need for more changes.<br />
“I can see that at some point<br />
traffic and crossing lights will<br />
probably be needed but I think<br />
the islands are a good idea in the<br />
Thursday <strong>February</strong> <strong>24</strong> <strong>2022</strong><br />
meantime,” she said.<br />
However, submitter Scott<br />
Campell was among those who<br />
did not like the design, criticising<br />
it as “timid”.<br />
A pedestrian crossing would<br />
be more effective as it would let<br />
vehicles yield to pedestrians and<br />
cyclists, he said.<br />
A word from Ilam MP<br />
Sarah<br />
Pallett<br />
I know that the news of Omicron in<br />
the community and the subsequent<br />
rise in COVID case numbers<br />
has been quite confronting for<br />
some. But even as we see case<br />
numbers rise across the country,<br />
it’s encouraging to know that<br />
the safeguards of the traffic light<br />
framework and our exceptional<br />
vaccination rates are helping to<br />
reduce the risk and keep our most<br />
vulnerable safe.<br />
That said, boosters are our strongest<br />
weapon against Omicron. The<br />
latest data from countries like the<br />
United States shows that boosters<br />
make a real difference, reducing the<br />
chances of people getting really sick<br />
and ending up in hospital.<br />
If you’re eligible but haven’t yet<br />
had your booster dose, I’d really<br />
encourage you to do that today.<br />
Getting that protection as soon<br />
as you can is the best way to<br />
cushion our community and our<br />
health system from the impact of<br />
Omicron. Find a walk-in clinic near<br />
you or book your appointment now<br />
by calling 0800 28 29 26 or online at<br />
bookmyvaccine.nz.<br />
Another way to prepare is to have<br />
a think about what you might need<br />
at home if you are sick and need to<br />
isolate. If you haven’t already, you<br />
may want to put together a wellness<br />
kit including things to help you<br />
cope with COVID-19 symptoms<br />
—such as ibuprofen, paracetamol,<br />
throat lozenges, cough medicine,<br />
and ice blocks. A thermometer is<br />
also a good addition to any wellness<br />
pack.<br />
It’s sensible and rational to prepare,<br />
as far as we are able. But please be<br />
considerate of others and only buy<br />
as much as you need.<br />
As always, I’m here to help. Please<br />
get in touch with my office if you<br />
have any issues or concerns.<br />

Leaving town: Make way for the old<br />
• By John Cosgrove and<br />
Susan Sandys<br />
A GRAND two-storey Papanui<br />
house has left town after<br />
a mammoth removal and<br />
transport operation.<br />
New owner Vanessa Nikolaidis<br />
said shifting the 11m-wide upper<br />
and lower sections went according<br />
to plan, bar one squashed temporary<br />
fence and two popped tyres.<br />
The 1920s-era building and<br />
former eye clinic at St George’s<br />
Hospital on Papanui Rd was sold<br />
off as the hospital plans a cancer<br />
treatment ward at the site.<br />
Nikolaidis loves old homes,<br />
and was thrilled with her find,<br />
now located in Tai Tapu.<br />
“I wanted to build a new heritage<br />
homestead, but I looked at<br />
the price and then found this<br />
lovely old house was available,”<br />
she said.<br />
After a two-week delay with<br />
wet weather and a crane hold-up,<br />
it was all go last week.<br />
A large crane lifted the upper<br />
section onto a transporter, before<br />
the journey out of town, around<br />
past the airport.<br />
“Papanui Rd wasn’t an issue.<br />
Belfast Rd got a bit tight in a few<br />
areas, because there was parked<br />
cars they had to kind of wiggle<br />
it around. Halswell Junction Rd<br />
was quite tight as well, half on<br />
the footpath half on the road,<br />
hovering over people’s yards to<br />
get down there,” Nikolaidis said.<br />
PREPARING: The former eye clinic at St George’s Hospital<br />
on Papanui Rd waits to be separated in two and lowered<br />
onto a transporter.<br />

“The only thing they managed<br />
to drop it on was a temporary<br />
fence. We looked at it when<br />
they picked it back up, it kind of<br />
squished it sideways.”<br />
In addition, the trailer burst<br />
a tyre under the weight of its<br />
23-tonne load.<br />
“They didn’t change it, they<br />
just kept driving.”<br />
The following night the bottom<br />
storey was shifted and all<br />
went well, although another tyre<br />
blew out.<br />
The upper and lower storeys<br />
have been reunited at their<br />
new Michaels Rd residence and<br />
will be lifted in one piece onto<br />
a new foundation when this is<br />
completed.<br />
Nikolaidis said she and<br />
her partner would live in the<br />
four-bedroom, two-lounge,<br />
two-bathroom villa. It would be<br />
in good company, with another<br />
home from the 1880s already at<br />
the property, which is a<br />
family farm.<br />
GENTLY DOES IT: The top half of the building is raised<br />
then lowered onto the transporter.<br />

Leaking water supplies still an issue<br />
LEAKING WATER supplies<br />
remain the most common<br />
reason why residents of the<br />
Papanui-Innes Community<br />
Board area are reaching out to<br />
the city council.<br />
A ticket report has revealed a<br />
breakdown of issues that residents<br />
contacted the city council<br />
about between December 1 and<br />
December 30 last year.<br />
The report shows leaking water<br />

READERS’ LETTERS<br />
Final Nor’West Arc cycleway plan draws criticism<br />
Our family has lived close to<br />
the intersection of Aorangi and<br />
Wairakei Rds for over 50 years<br />
(in three different houses).<br />
We have all made submissions<br />
regarding the cycleway.<br />
My main concern is the proposed<br />
closing of the intersection<br />
to through traffic to the other<br />
half of Aorangi Rd and the no<br />
right-hand turn from Aorangi<br />
Rd into Wairakei Rd.<br />
I also don’t like the two directions<br />
of the cycleway on the<br />
same side of Aorangi Rd. It will<br />
be very dangerous trying to exit<br />
private driveways. I did get support<br />
from three city councillors<br />
before submissions closed. –<br />
Phyllis A Holden<br />
I am a resident of Aorangi Rd,<br />
living close to the Wairakei Rd<br />
corner.<br />
I am not convinced that the<br />
consultation process was particularly<br />
fair or well-timed, as<br />
consultation occurred with just a<br />
few day’s notice before the public<br />
meetings.<br />
This was in part due to the late<br />
delivery of information pamphlets,<br />
likely due to the August/<br />
September Covid-19 lockdown.<br />
However, it definitely didn’t allow<br />
much time for the public to<br />
get involved and then comment.<br />
I would have to agree with<br />
Alister Metherell that the<br />
Aorangi/Wairakei Rds intersection<br />
plans are particularly<br />
concerning.<br />
In its current plan, I firmly<br />
believe that there will be unintended<br />
consequences in all<br />
nearby streets with the closing<br />
off of the majority of traffic both<br />
in and out of Aorangi Rd.<br />
I mentioned this in both my<br />
written submission and in my<br />
5min oral submission at the<br />
online city council hearing.<br />
I am very sceptical about the<br />
number of cyclists who would<br />
ever even use this cycleway (how<br />
common is it to cycle from the<br />
university through to Harewood<br />
Rd), and to unnecessarily<br />
disrupt the daily commute and<br />
vehicle movements of thousands<br />
of other residents for the sake of<br />
a few cyclists seems crazy to me.<br />
A fully signalised intersection<br />
is the only viable option to me<br />
and, no doubt, to many other<br />
residents. – Jenni Holden<br />
CROSSROADS: Traffic will be unable to turn right onto Wairakei Rd from Aorangi Rd once<br />
the Nor’West Arc cycleway is built.<br />

Love at first sight<br />
How to make homebuyers fall in love<br />
Some people say that love at first sight<br />
doesn’t exist, but perhaps they’ve never<br />
seen a prospective buyer’s eyes light up<br />
upon stepping into their dream home.<br />
Property styling allows your home to<br />
shine in its best light and allow the buyers<br />
to visualise living in the space. How can<br />
you strike an emotional connection with<br />
your homebuyers?<br />
First impressions are everything<br />
We’re all about detail and so are<br />
homebuyers. You should be putting your<br />
best foot forward from the get-go. For<br />
example, entrances are surprisingly one of<br />
the most neglected spaces. Although it’s<br />
not somewhere people spend a lot of time,<br />
it’s the very first impression. It doesn’t<br />
take much to spruce up your entranceway<br />
with a console table, statement artwork<br />
or flowers.<br />
Tell a story with styling<br />
One of the big problems we see with home<br />
styling jobs is the lack of connection from<br />
room to room. This makes it a disjointed<br />
and confusing experience for the buyer.<br />
Try to use a colour theme, textures or an<br />
artwork motif theme to tie the spaces<br />
together.<br />
Right on target<br />
One thing you don’t want to do is try to<br />
impress everyone<br />
– you won’t get<br />
anywhere trying<br />
to style your home<br />
for all buyer types<br />
when for example,<br />
your townhouse is<br />
perfect for young<br />
professionals. Style<br />
your home to make<br />
it relevant to the<br />
buyer pool that<br />
your home will most<br />
likely appeal to. Not<br />
sure who that is?<br />
Check in with one<br />
of the team here at<br />
Ray White Papanui,<br />
we would be happy<br />
to chat further<br />
with you about your most likely buyer<br />
demographic.<br />
Declutter your life<br />
As with many things, less is more – a<br />
decluttered home is much easier to fall in<br />
love with.<br />
A home should feel like a home<br />
Don’t be afraid to mix things up a bit. Aim<br />
for a semi casual vibe so homebuyers<br />
feel as comfortable as possible walking<br />
through the space. Sometimes it’s as<br />
simple as draping a throw over a chair<br />
or leaving an open book on the bedside.<br />
These little details are essential to helping<br />
your buyers envision their lives in the<br />
property.<br />

The Complexity of Rental<br />
Legislation<br />
Today I wanted to cover<br />
the importance of ensuring<br />
property managers have the<br />
knowledge and experience to<br />
provide exceptional service<br />
to both their landlords and<br />
tenants. This is of course<br />
one of the most important<br />
considerations when making<br />
your choice on who to manage<br />
your investment property.<br />
During recent years the<br />
increased complexity of<br />
tenancy legislation, has made<br />
it equally important that they<br />
can keep on top of all of the<br />
changes, and they have robust<br />
systems and processes in place<br />
to ensure potentially costly errors are not<br />
made.<br />
Part of my role is in assisting our Morris<br />
& Co sales team in anything related to<br />
tenancies and the Residential Tenancies<br />
Act and I am often privy to communication<br />
which is sent out via other property<br />
management companies. Unfortunately<br />
I too often see either a complete lack of<br />
communication or completely incorrect<br />
information/notices being given to tenants<br />
and landlords.<br />
Being heavily entrenched in the industry<br />
I am part of several different property<br />
management online forums, I am well<br />
supported by our corporate team who take<br />
a keen interest in anything to do with rental<br />
properties, so I remain up to date with what<br />
is going on out there.<br />
My role as operations manager allows<br />
me time to read and digest all of the<br />
information and pass this onto my team<br />
who are in the field, and seemingly neverending<br />
legislation changes.<br />
It is equally important that there are<br />
systems and processes in place to ensure<br />
that everything is correct and current, as<br />
after all we are all humans, and sometimes<br />
errors can occur. If you ask my team they<br />
will tell you how much I love a checklist too!<br />
So whether you are using a property<br />
manager, or self managing your own rental<br />
property please ensure that when you are<br />
issuing any notices that you are doing so<br />
according to the RTA, and in particular the<br />
2020 Amendments which came into effect<br />
in <strong>February</strong> last year. The consequences of<br />
getting it wrong could be costly!<br />
