Christchurch Arena<br />
Hollie powers way to<br />
major<br />
BMX<br />
title<br />
REPRESENTING New<br />
Zealand is a milestone for<br />
many athletes.<br />
And at just 11-years-old<br />
BMXer Hollie Tribble has not<br />
only ticked that box—she even<br />
got to beat Australia while she<br />
was at it.<br />
The Rangi Ruru Girls’<br />
School year 7 student was one<br />
of eight Kiwi kids chosen for<br />
the Mighty 11s Trans-Tasman<br />
test in Queensland at the<br />
weekend. Her girls team —<br />
of which she was the only<br />
rider from the South Island<br />
— were victorious over their<br />
Australian counterparts,<br />
winning the Troy Fisher Cup.<br />
Hollie says making the<br />
team for the 30-year-old<br />
competition run by the<br />
national cycling bodies of<br />
both countries has been her<br />
dream since she started riding<br />
as a four-year-old. She says<br />
wearing the New Zealand<br />
jersey and bringing the trophy<br />
home with her team was “very<br />
exciting”.<br />
“You only get one chance to<br />
do it, because you have to be<br />
11 on race day, and you get to<br />
travel to Australia and you get<br />
to travel with your team and<br />
make really good friendships.<br />
I felt very proud and that<br />
I needed to represent New<br />
Zealand well.”<br />

Social housing will ‘provide stable homes’<br />
CHRISTCHURCH’S newest<br />
community housing is<br />
welcoming the first people who<br />
will call it home.<br />
Ōtautahi Community Housing<br />
Trust (ŌCHT) has opened<br />
33 new homes for single people,<br />
couples and families in Coles Pl,<br />
St Albans, on a site that has had<br />
community housing for decades.<br />
The modern, Homestar 7-rated<br />
homes were built to replace 20<br />
ageing, one-bedroom weatherboard<br />
units that had provided<br />
city-owned social housing since<br />
the early 1950s.<br />
The new homes are set in<br />
landscaped grounds with plenty<br />
of shared space and communal<br />
gardens. The homes are designed<br />
to be warm and dry, and efficient<br />
to run.<br />
Housing Minister Megan<br />
Woods and Mayor Lianne<br />
Dalziel cut the ribbon to<br />
officially open ŌCHT’s eleventh<br />
community of new homes last<br />
Friday.<br />
Woods noted the project<br />
was delivered early and under<br />
budget, in spite of the pandemic,<br />
but that the project team’s work<br />
provided much “more than<br />
bricks and mortar.”<br />
A home is a pillar of whānau<br />
development and community<br />
wellbeing, and Coles Pl will<br />
provide stable homes for a new<br />
community, Dr Woods said.<br />
Dalziel said ŌCHT’s new<br />
developments exceeded what<br />
Easter<br />
some had in mind when the city<br />
council voted to form a trust to<br />
manage its community housing.<br />
The city council transferred<br />
the property to ŌCHT in 2019<br />
as part of the Christchurch<br />
Housing Accord. Construction<br />
on the new community started<br />
in May 2021.<br />
ŌCHT chief executive Cate<br />
Kearney said the trust will<br />
continue to provide modern,<br />
future-proofed responses to the<br />
ongoing need to help people into<br />
a home.<br />
“Community housing is<br />
needed more now than ever,<br />
especially as we see the impact<br />
of the housing shortage, high<br />
rentals and the effects of<br />
Covid-19 on the number of<br />
people in need of a home.<br />
“More and more people need a<br />
home, and they want the chance<br />
to sustain their tenancies, to have<br />
the security that comes with<br />
having a home and being part of<br />
a community.<br />
“Coles Place has been part<br />
of Christchurch’s community<br />
SOCIAL: The crowd looking<br />
over the homes on opening<br />
day. Above – the single<br />
units.<br />
housing story for nearly 70<br />
years, and the new community<br />
will continue making a positive<br />
contribution to our city for<br />
decades to come.”<br />
The trust was exploring ways<br />
to scale-up and bring even more<br />
new community and affordable<br />
housing to the city, Kearney said.<br />
ŌCHT’s new tenants are<br />
supported into homes from the<br />
Ministry of Social Development’s<br />
Public Housing Register.<br />
Just-released figures show<br />
more than 1800 people<br />
and families were waiting<br />
for community housing in<br />
Christchurch in December.<br />

New course for disc golfers opened<br />
• By Tatiana Gibbs<br />
A FOURTH disc golf course<br />
has opened as the sport’s rising<br />
popularity puts pressure on<br />
existing courses.<br />
The semi-wooded 18-hole<br />
course at Warren Park, Hornby,<br />
is the latest course to open on<br />
city council-owned parkland.<br />
It is also the first course in the<br />
south-west of the city.<br />
Christchurch Disc Golf Club<br />
chairman Paul Deacon said<br />
Warren Park was the first of<br />
15 new fully-specced courses,<br />
complete with target baskets and<br />
concrete tee pads, that the club<br />
wants to install in Christchurch.<br />
There are an estimated 20,000<br />
recreational disc golfers in New<br />
Zealand and about 2000 in<br />
Christchurch – more than the<br />
existing free courses in Burnside,<br />
New Brighton, and Parklands<br />
can accommodate.<br />
The Jellie Park course, which<br />
first opened in 2015, has become<br />
so popular, hosting up to 500<br />
keen disc golfers on a busy weekend,<br />
that it has reached capacity.<br />
“One of the things we’re hoping<br />
to do is relieve pressure,”<br />
Deacon said.<br />
Hornby disc golfer Stormy<br />
Phillips is stoked to have a<br />
course now just two blocks from<br />
home, saving him the commute<br />
to Burnside each week. He has<br />
played the 7.5km course about 10<br />
times in the last month alone.<br />
SKILLS: Glen Bellam (left) putts at the new Warren Park<br />
disc golf course, while Stormy Phillips tees off.<br />
“I can now stop by for a<br />
round on my way home from<br />
work.<br />
“I’ve brought friends down<br />
who live nearby, and they love<br />
it,” he said.<br />
Flatmates George Foster and<br />
Jarrod Lobb said having a course<br />
close by would keep them involved<br />
in the sport.<br />
“We probably would have<br />
fizzled out in winter if we had to<br />
drive to Jellie Park all the time,<br />
so having one here is so much<br />
better,” Foster said.<br />
Disc golf, which follows<br />
broadly similar rules to traditional<br />
ball golf but has players<br />
throw a plastic disc (or frisbee)<br />
into a metal basket, has taken off<br />
in popularity worldwide.<br />
Unlike most sports, people<br />
of different standards can play<br />
together, which makes it popular<br />
with families.<br />
“You can get a family going<br />
round or even three generations<br />
going round together,” Deacon<br />
said.<br />
“I know a guy well in his 80s<br />
still playing.”<br />
Sports activation adviser John<br />
Furlong said the city council<br />
hoped the new Warren Park<br />
course would be a success not<br />
just for disc golfers but also the<br />
wider community.<br />
“We see disc golf as a sport for<br />
serious users [and] casual users<br />
as well.”<br />
Because disc golf was open to<br />
all ages and abilities, and had<br />
a low barrier to entry, the city<br />
council hoped it would encourage<br />
more locals to use their community<br />
parks.<br />
Furlong said Ascot Park, at<br />
QEII, would be the next cab off<br />
the rank for a disc golf course.<br />
Plans for the course have already<br />
been approved by the city<br />
council and community board.

Painted wooden godwits for you to find<br />
• By Emily Moorhouse<br />
TAKING A walk through<br />
Southshore will reveal 57<br />
wooden godwits, painted by the<br />
community.<br />
What started off as a small<br />
community painting day has<br />
spiralled into a great godwit hunt<br />
as locals scout out the brightly<br />
painted godwits scattered<br />
throughout the area.<br />
Southshore Residents<br />
Association member Maria<br />
Smolar helped organise the<br />
initiative, alongside fellow<br />
members Liz Yuki and Annette<br />
Bolton.<br />
Smolar said the project<br />
stemmed from the association<br />
wanting to put together<br />
something exciting after events<br />
had been cancelled because of<br />
Covid.<br />
Avon-Heathcote Estuary<br />
Ihutai Trust manager Tanya<br />
Jenkins suggested giving the<br />
association some wooden<br />
godwits, made with the help of<br />
Linwood Menz Shed volunteers.<br />
The idea was to give the<br />
godwits to members of the<br />
community to paint themselves,<br />
which soon turned into painting<br />
sessions held at Common<br />
Ground.<br />
The sessions attracted roughly<br />
20 people, including Coastal<br />
Ward councillor Celeste<br />
Donovan and Coastal-Burwood<br />
Community Board member Jo<br />
Zervos.<br />
Once people had painted their<br />
godwits they put them around<br />
the estuary edge and Rocking<br />
Horse Rd for others to see.<br />
Soon after, Smolar was<br />
approached by a local mother<br />
who suggested the idea of a<br />
godwit hunt. She had created a<br />
map for people to mark off when<br />
they spotted the birds.<br />
“We love it,” Smolar said.<br />
“I didn’t expect it to become<br />
this big thing, which has been really<br />
awesome.”<br />
Jenkins said the trust has done<br />
similar activities to this in the<br />
past but the Southshore Residents<br />
Association had gone all<br />
out and made it even better than<br />
she could have hoped for.<br />
“It is a roaring success,” she<br />
said.<br />
“We had to extend it and reprint<br />
more maps because our<br />
residents were having so much<br />
fun.”<br />
Smolar said some godwits<br />
SUCCESS: (From left) –<br />

Boxall spot a godwit while<br />
on a bike ride.<br />
were still waiting to be found<br />
and described the hunt as<br />
“intergenerational” as it’s not<br />
only kids who are participating,<br />
but families and adults too.<br />
“It’s just been really wonderful<br />
to see people being involved and<br />
being connected,” Smolar said.<br />
“It’s really a community effort<br />
and it’s been so much fun.”<br />

Leaders in Learning<br />
Phew, what a Term 1 this has been!<br />
Just as we were about to welcome in the new school year,<br />
especially our new Year 9 students and their whānau, new staff,<br />
and other new students to the school, COVID-19 reminded us<br />
that life is never smooth sailing. All our plans were impacted,<br />
leading to significant changes to the way we normally operate.<br />
Once again, our school community adapted to the challenges<br />
and barriers we face. We’ve learned so much about isolation,<br />
masks, PCR tests and RATs, boosters, ventilation, scanning in<br />
and vaccine passes; while adjusting or cancelling events to<br />
comply with restrictions on gatherings. We’ve followed all these<br />
public health measures to alleviate the pressure on our health<br />
system and to protect those most at risk of getting sick. I want<br />
to reassure you all that Burnside High School continues to be a<br />
safe environment to be in.<br />
Our school, like all schools and workplaces, has experienced<br />
positive cases and people isolating in households. This has<br />
affected both staff and students. We monitored the situation<br />
daily, trying to keep students onsite for as long as possible,<br />
before accumulated staff absences necessitated a move to the<br />
hybrid learning model from 15 March. This meant students had a<br />
combination of face-to-face and remote learning on a rostered<br />
basis. While our aim was continuity of learning, we know how<br />
difficult this has been for both students and staff. We know how<br />
tiring it has been; and that we’d all much rather just be at school<br />
every day. I am proud of how everyone has handled the changes,<br />
disappointments, and frustrations associated with this disruptive<br />
period. Thank you for the way you have responded and adjusted.<br />
Communication between school and whānau continues to be a<br />
key factor in helping us manage the COVID situation. I hope you<br />
feel that you have been regularly informed through Schoology,<br />
our website, our Facebook page, and emails. Thank you very<br />
much for keeping us fully informed if your student is absent.<br />
We are looking forward to returning in Term 2 with all students<br />
and staff back onsite! I am confident that we will deal with<br />
whatever happens; and assure you that every effort will be made<br />
to recover lost time and teaching opportunities. As we begin the<br />
<strong>April</strong> holidays, we all know what we must do<br />
to continue to keep ourselves, our families,<br />
and our communities safe. It is also a time to<br />
rest, recharge, and take some time out.<br />
Let’s continue working together to make<br />
<strong>2022</strong> a successful year.<br />

Group keen to find new<br />
• By Emily Moorhouse<br />
AN ACCOUNTANT, an<br />
immigration lawyer and a<br />
community board chairman<br />
all share a vision of building<br />
a community facility in<br />
Prestons.<br />
The Marshland Hall Trust,<br />
run by Coastal-Burwood<br />
Community Board chairman<br />
Kelly Barber, Sian Ruth and<br />
Adele Cornelius is looking<br />
to purchase a piece of land to<br />
build what will be a space for<br />
the community to share.<br />
And to get the community<br />
on board with its idea, the<br />
trust has been hosting trailer<br />
days over the weekends.<br />
Barber, Ruth and Cornelius<br />
take two trailers to the<br />
Marshland and Prestons areas<br />
for people to drop off rubbish<br />
before taking it to the dump,<br />
the costs being covered by the<br />
trust.<br />
Barber said people that have<br />
dropped off rubbish come<br />
from all over the subdivisions<br />
and have been “absolutely<br />
stoked” and they usually fill<br />
two trailers.<br />
“It’s perfect because they<br />
drive down with just a few<br />
things in their boot, just the<br />
things you’d want to take<br />
to the tip but you probably<br />
site for community facility<br />
PICK IT UP...<br />
DRIVE AWAY<br />
free<br />
wouldn’t make a special trip<br />
for it,” he said.<br />
The trust previously had a<br />
building at 430 Marshland<br />
Rd, but received a payout<br />
after earthquakes damaged<br />
the building. The trust sold<br />
the land it was occupying last<br />
year.<br />
Now, with the money from<br />
its previous space, the trust<br />
has begun consulting with the<br />
community about what they<br />
would like to see.<br />
Some suggestions included<br />
a basketball court, a stage,<br />
meeting rooms and the idea<br />
of hosting functions such as<br />
weddings was even thrown in<br />
the mix.<br />
Barber said the trust wants<br />
the facility to be self-funding<br />
and have offices to rent so<br />
people will be using it all the<br />
AWARENESS:<br />
Kelly Barber and<br />
Adele Cornelius<br />
at one of their<br />
trailer days to<br />
raise community<br />
awareness of<br />
their vision.<br />
time.<br />
The trust has been on a tour<br />
of a few community centres<br />
with city council staff to have<br />
a look at their options but<br />
Barber said it was still early<br />
days.<br />
The trust has plans to host<br />
more trailer days during the<br />
weekends that will be posted<br />
on the Marshland Hall Trust<br />
Facebook page.<br />
