Thief tracked on CCTV;
residents may intervene
• By Emily Moorhouse
SCOPING: CCTV footage captures the suspect looking
through car windows with a torch and then breaking
into another vehicle. ​
FRUSTRATED residents may
take the law into their own
hands and tackle a thief they
say continues to break into
their cars.
A group of Woolston
neighbours have talked about
staying up all night watching
the street from their garden to
grab the suspect and then call
the police.
The neighbours from Lane
St all pitched in to buy a highquality
security camera that
captures a view of their street
after it has become somewhat
of a hotspot for car break-ins.
However, after presenting
video evidence to police, they
were told there wasn’t much
that could be done.
“The cops aren’t doing anything
and if the cops aren’t doing
anything he’s just getting
away with it, like what else can
we do,” Lane St resident Scott
Robinson said.
Robinson said there has been
an increase of car break-ins
over the last four months, and
the neighbourhood thinks it
may be the same person committing
these crimes.
“There’s so much footage . . .
we’ve pretty much done all the
hard work for them [police]
but they can’t do anything
else which is kind of what we
expected,” he said.
A police spokesperson said
“police are aware of the incident
and the matter is being
investigated.”
Video footage of the suspect
riding a scooter has also been
captured by other residents,
including Woolston business
owner Marcus Thompson.
Thompson captured footage
of the suspect with a handbag
on the handle bars of his
scooter after a security guard
confirmed a New World staff
member had their car broken
into and a handbag stolen.
“After you put all the footage
together and then you look at
the guy that we think did it,
he rides around on a scooter,
wears the same jersey, got the
same shoes on it’s pretty obvious
who it is,” Robinson said.
“In the video camera footage
he literally looks straight into
the camera. He doesn’t care,
he knows he’s not going to get
caught.”

Support worker: Better access to
landing needed for the disabled
PHOTO: NEWSLINE
PARKING: Amanda Ross (far right) took her client Kayla Simpson to the recently opened Dallington Landing, but was
disappointed with the lack of accessibility for disabled people.
• By Emily Moorhouse
A SUPPORT worker is frustrated
with the lack of accessibility for
disabled people at the recently
opened Dallington Landing.
Amanda Ross, of Aranui,
went to take her children and a
client to the Dallington Landing
to have a fish-and-chip picnic,
but was disappointed with the
lack of parking close-by to allow
disabled people easy access.
Unable to leave her young
children unattended while she
tried to find a car park, Ross had
to resort to parking partly on the
cycle lane along Gayhurst Rd.
“It just seems ridiculous to have
no parking there at all,” she said.
“It stops the disability
community being able to enjoy
the places that everyone else can
enjoy really.”
Ross said there was parking at
the other end of the bridge, but
this was uphill which wouldn’t be
ideal for one of her clients.
“It’s hard enough sometimes
to get to different places with
disabled people and then you feel
kind of excluded because you
can’t go everywhere,” she said.
“It would be nice to see them
put in some parking and make
them more accessible because it’s
quite a nice place there.”
The city council said after
receiving community feedback
the option for car parking at
Rupert Pl was removed.
“We’ve listened to what the
public has told us and made
some key changes to the design,
usability and amenities of the
Dallington Landing,” said city
council head of parks Andrew
Rutledge.
Coastal-Burwood Community
Board chairman Kelly Barber
said while car parking at the
landing wasn’t something he
had thought much about, it
could possibly be added in the
future.
“The landings have been done
quite early,” he said. “There’s a
lot more development to go in
the red zone and so I guess it’s
something that could be added

Landing should have closer

down the track. I don’t know
if it’s going to be in the short
term.”
Barber said the footbridges
were the first phases of
development and called it a
“watch-this-space” project.
“These landings and these
bridges are amongst the first
pieces of infrastructure being put
in,” he said. “I’m sure down the
track there will be greater access.”

I agree it should be named

Therefore, why not Jack Hinton.
He is a Victoria Cross winner,

his wife Molly frequently walked

probably would have appreciated
a pedestrian bridge.
The present memorial to him
on Anzac Drive, at the western
end of Bexley Rd, is overgrown
and obscure. The path to it on
the south bank of the river is in a
state of repair and not attractive
to walkers or easy for cyclists.
A Victoria Cross is distinction

“Briarmont Bridge” as the other

New suburban hotspot for street art
SYDENHAM is becoming
a hotspot for street art with
dozens of murals decorating the
suburb’s walls and buildings.
The central city has become
celebrated for its vibrant largescale
street art, while Sydenham
is notable for its high concentration
and eclectic range of murals.
Some have been privately commissioned
by local businesses or
building owners and others have
been publically funded or supported
through the Christchurch
Art Gallery and various city
council funds.
“There’s some amazing street
art tucked away in Sydenham,”
said city council principal community
arts advisor Kiri Jarden.
“It’s always had a creative scene
and now there are at least five art
galleries in the area, including Fiksate
Studio and Gallery, dedicated
to street and contemporary urban
art. It’s becoming a real hub.”
Work from a range of practitioners
can be seen in the area
bounded by Moorhouse Ave,
Brougham and Durham Sts
and Waltham Rd, from student
artists right through to international
names.
One of the most recent works
is the commercial mural The
Hirer created for a local furniture
business by high-profile
street artist Dcypher last year.
Distinctive urban artist Jacob
Yikes has multiple works and a
number of murals created as part

of festivals, including From the
Ground Up in 2013 and Rise in
2014.
Sydenham is also home to
one of the older murals in the
city, which dates from 1988 and
depicts two football players, one
wearing an Arsenal shirt and the
other a Westham United shirt.
Originally painted on the
wall of a private courtyard, the
mural emerged into the public
sphere after nearby buildings
were demolished following the
earthquakes.
“There’s this layering effect
that’s visible in Sydenham, the
street art evolving and changing
along with the city,” Jarden said.
“I definitely think the explosion

We’re sticking to
our game plan
ADVERTISING
With consultation now open on the Draft
Annual Plan 2022/23, Christchurch City Council
is encouraging people to share their views on
whether its budget strikes the right chord.
The Draft Annual Plan outlines what the Council
plans to spend on projects and day-to-day services
over the coming financial year and how the work
will be financed.
Since our Long Term Plan (LTP) 2021–31 was
confirmed last year, the economic environment
in Ōtautahi Christchurch has been affected by
the same factors the whole world is navigating as
we live with COVID-19 – inflation, supply chain
issues, productivity challenges and more. We
also have significant Government reforms on the
horizon.
Striking the right balance
Our books are balanced and we’re committed
to doing the basics and doing them well whilst
keeping costs as low as possible for ratepayers.
In line with residents’ feedback we’ve prioritised
spending on our water supply network, our
transport network including roads and footpaths
and our facilities. All this has been considered
through the lens of climate change.
We’re in a changing environment and being
realistic about what we can deliver has been key
to this budget. We’ve reviewed the whole capital
programme with a focus on deliverability and
affordability – if we’re not likely to be able to
complete
the work
in 2022/23,
there’s no
need to charge the ratepayer right now.
The main proposals in the Draft Annual Plan
2022/23
• An average proposed rates increase for a
typical household of 4.86%. A typical house is
one with a capital value of $508,608.
• An overall average rate increase across all
ratepayers of 4.96% – slightly less than the
4.97% indicated in the LTP.
• Operational expenditure of $527.5 million and
capital expenditure of $615.5 million.
• Borrowing for the capital programme is $54
million less than planned.
We’re also consulting on other matters which affect
our budget, including a proposed rate increase
on vacant central city land, and some proposed
changes to our kerbside collection service.
Finding the right balance together
Creating a budget for a growing city like
Christchurch is always a balancing act – we think
we have that balance right, but before we can say
that, we need to know what the community thinks.
Visit ccc.govt.nz/annualplan for all the details, and
to have your say by 18 April.
All the feedback will be considered by councillors
before we finalise the budget in June.

Upsizing to your next home: How to be smart about it
THE HOUSING boom of 2021
has meant many Kiwis have
benefited from huge capital gains,
and now have the opportunity to
capitalise on the equity in their
existing home.
And Covid-19 has certainly
drilled home the need for space.
Upsizing can mean different
things to different people. Some
might want a rumpus room for
a teen who is at uni, while others
might want somewhere with
office space, or perhaps a property
with land where they can add a
self-contained space.
Before you start looking for
a bigger home, ask yourself
how you want to live and what
will make a real difference?
Additionally, consider whether
you want to move or to renovate
your existing home to create
space.
What gives the feeling of
a larger home?
Think about how big your
family is, do you have a dog,
children, will you have visitors
coming to stay, and do you know
what you need the extra space
for?
The success of the upsizing
process is often about the extra
living areas.
Good, well-considered
design, and a family room with
a separate lounge, are generally
more sought after than an extra
bedroom.
Choosing to renovate
your home
If for you, upsizing means
renovating your home, make sure
you consider separation of space.
This could mean a living room
in a separate wing, a large sit-in
kitchen, sliding doors to separate
external spaces or a tucked-away
media room.
Your furniture choices can
do a lot to perceived space – for
example, soft furnishings and
heavy drapery help to give it a
homey feel and mirrors can make
a small house feel bigger than it
is by reflecting and, therefore,
replicating the view.
And remember, good light,
double glazing, and insulation all
add to the feeling of space, as do
ceiling heights.
New developments are
maximising space and
comfort
When upsizing to a new
development, you are coming
to homes that are designed in a
way to use every single square
metre.
The attention to detail is second
to none, with quirky nooks and
spaces such as rooftop gardens
and elevated patios.
Developers are trying to give a
sense of space and light, even
when the square meterage is not
excessive.

Yes! We are open! Classes have been running and ākonga have been
attending. Numbers are down due to COVID-19, but as much as possible
we have endeavoured to keep classes running and ākonga engaged.
There are some who may look back at these times and lament what was
lost, what wasn’t done and what was hard. There are others who will look
back on these times and celebrate what was learned. We have learnt over
the past two years that there is no going back to how things were because
the COVID-19 pandemic has changed us and our society forever. So
instead of worrying about what we have lost we should focus on what we
have gained and what we know now.
What do we know now that we did not know before the pandemic?
We know we are resilient and that we can cope with constant change and
hardship.
We know we are collaborators and that we can work together to ensure
everyone is supported.
We know we are contributors and that everyone of us played our part in
keeping the kura safe.
We know we are designers and that when we had to we designed our
own learning and made it count.
We know we are rangatira and that we lead, we don’t follow.
We know we are compassionate and that we always put others first.
We know the secret to fa’aaloalo is being able to adjust and adapt when
the need arises.
Yes, the pandemic has interrupted our lives, but we are the richer for it,
as it has taught us to dig deep and persevere. It will not be long before
COVID-19 is just a distant memory. What other memories will we
have from this time? We will remember the kindness of others. We will
remember what we gave and what we received, and most importantly we
will remember to be grateful that we made it through, when others did
not.
We will remember Ko Haeata Tātou!
Kia kaha, kia toa, kia manawanui
He tangata ki tahi.

Ihutai Y11 PE & Health by
Mark Hamer:
Our Y11 ākonga are currently working towards an Achievement
Standard around Participating in Different Physical Activities. This
Assessment requires them to take part in a range of activities,
some of which they wouldn’t normally do and assess the factors
that impacted on their participation. In preparation for their
assessment we had a Yoga instructor lead a session. This activity
was a first for a lot of our ākonga, they showed amazing resilience.
Our ākonga were pleasantly surprised by the benefits of yoga as
well as how challenging it actually is.
Year 9 & 10 Chess & Robotics Club
by Annie Bowden:
One of the choices during our alternative educational options during
lockdown was Robotics and Chess Club. The ākonga surprised all of us
with their skill level, knowledge and strategies used in chess club. Many
students had great pleasure in beating staff at chess. Robotics was an
exciting option and ākonga created robots and futuristic vehicles that
raced across the classroom! The year 9 / 10 students were able to
choose options every afternoon from robotics, chess, art, photography,
cooking, science, maker space and learning a new language. The
ākonga said they loved the choices and the power to engage in
creative new learning options. The students’ said learning at Haeata
during the covid pandemic has been fun, challenging and exciting.
Kōrepo Y9 &10 Artworks in
Progress by Courtney Brown:
Kōrepo ākonga have demonstrated great resilience during Plan
C. As a reward, we have been having a kōwhiringa (choice)
block in the final period each day. In Toi Ataata, Visual Arts,
ākonga have been collaborating on several group artworks in
our choice blocks. Each artwork has a rangatira, a leader, who
delegates roles to their peers working on the artwork with them.
It has been great seeing our ākonga working so well and happily
together. We cannot wait to have them completed and installed!
Hospitality Programme Level 1
& Level 2 by Nicki Knier:
It has been so good to get back into the kitchen with a group
of new students this year! Their enthusiasm to learn has been
incredible. It is the first year that we have been able to offer
Level One Hospitality thus giving strong foundations and clear
pathways into Levels Two and Three. We are ever growing
and being able to fulfil some of our ākonga aspirations of
securing apprenticeships or a pathway to ARA, beyond
school.
Our first units of the term have been all about knife
handling and knife skills. The Level Two class excelled with
their Chicken and Sweet Chilli stir frys. Knife cuts, fruit and
vegetable cookery have also featured highly amongst dishes of
Potato salad, Waldorf salad, Poached pears and Fruit salad.
The Level 1 class have also been
completing a baking unit consisting
of Apple scroll scones, banana cake
with chocolate buttercream icing,
and Victoria sponges.
The photos speak volumes and
it goes without saying that I am
incredibly proud of them.
