Christchurch Arena 

Event planner uses skills 

to create homeless feeds 

• By Emily Moorhouse 

A COLLABORATION between 

food truck owners and an event 

planner has ensured homeless 

people around the city have full 

bellies. 

Aranui’s Nyran Stanton is the 

brains behind the homeless feeds, 

after the idea came to him when 

he woke at 4am one morning in 

January. 

Being an event planner with 

no events due to Covid, Stanton 

wondered what he could do to put 

his expertise to use. 

“I thought if I can’t do events 

maybe there’s some people in the 

community that could benefit 

from something,” he said. “I 

thought why not go out and do 

some homeless feeds.” 

He began brainstorming 

straightaway and came up with 

Demon Angel Charities, the 

demon aspect representing the 

addictions and flaws humans 

have while the angel aspect balances 

it out with the goodness of 

humanity. 

Stanton called up homeless 

shelters and went to Christchurch 

City Mission to announce his 

idea, as well as talking to a few 

homeless people on the street. 

In two weeks he had raised 

$458 from donations thanks to 

a Facebook page he’d set up to 

promote his idea. 

He spent the money at 

Linwood Seafood, putting on his 

first successful homeless feed at

the end of January. 

First, Stanton walked to 

Christchurch City Mission to 

hand out some fish and chips, 

before heading over to Latimer 

Square to find a group of 

homeless people waiting for him. 

He handed out the food and 

they all sat down together and 

shared their stories, something 

Stanton said was “very cool.” 

From then on, Stanton has 

worked on building up his 

charity to the point of hosting 

a homeless feed almost every 

Thursday. 

“I think people kind of 

appreciate that we’ve all had 

situations in our life where we’ve 

needed a feed from somewhere,” 

he said. 

“I think everyone has been 

pretty good about it.”

Wooden godwits for you to find 


TAKING A walk through 

Southshore will reveal 57 

wooden godwits, painted by the 

community. 

What started off as a small 

community painting day has 

spiralled into a great godwit hunt 

as locals scout out the brightly 

painted godwits scattered 

throughout the area. 

Southshore Residents Association 

member Maria Smolar 

helped organise the initiative, 

alongside fellow members Liz 

Yuki and Annette Bolton. 

Smolar said the project 

stemmed from the association 

wanting to put together 

something exciting after events 

had been cancelled because of 

Covid. 

Avon-Heathcote Estuary Ihutai 

Trust manager Tanya Jenkins 

suggested giving the association 

some wooden godwits, made 

with the help of Linwood Menz 

Shed volunteers. 

The idea was to give the godwits 

to members of the community 

to paint themselves, which 

soon turned into painting sessions 

held at Common Ground. 

The sessions attracted roughly 

20 people, including Coastal 

Ward councillor Celeste Donovan 

and Coastal-Burwood 

Community Board member Jo 

Zervos. 

Once people had painted their

godwits they put them around 

the estuary edge and Rocking 

Horse Rd for others to see. 

Soon after, Smolar was 

approached by a local mother 

who suggested the idea of a 

godwit hunt. She had created a 

map for people to mark off when 

they spotted the birds. 

“We love it,” Smolar said. 

“I didn’t expect it to become 

this big thing, which has been 

really awesome.” 

Jenkins said the trust has done 

similar activities to this in the 

past but the Southshore Residents 

Association had gone all 

out and made it even better than 

she could have hoped for. 

“It is a roaring success,” she 

said. 

“We had to extend it and reprint 

more maps because our 

residents were having so much 

fun.” 

Smolar said some godwits 

were still waiting to be found 

and described the hunt as 

“intergenerational” as it’s not 

only kids who are participating, 

but families and adults too. 

“It’s just been really wonderful 

to see people being involved and 

being connected,” Smolar said. 

“It’s really a community effort 

and it’s been so much fun.” 

In Brief 

ANZAC WALK TO BE 

SELF-GUIDED 

The Anzac remembrance river 

walk is still going ahead, but 

will be self-guided this year 

due to Covid. The World War 1 

installation will be up on River 

Rd from April 20-27. Beginning 

at Avebury House, participants 

can head to River Rd and turn 

left. Once past the crosses, 

participants can turn back or 

continue to Lois Pl and return 

via the red zone. 

FEEDBACK ON PICNIC 

TABLES SOUGHT 

The Parklands Residents 

Association is seeking feedback 

from the public on where to put 

three proposed picnic tables at 

the park off Queensview Dr. The 

association has consulted with 

the city council, and has asked 

the public to leave feedback on 

its Facebook page. 

CAR PARK REPAIRS 

The South Brighton Surf Life 

Saving Club car park and 

entranceway are being repaired 

due to deterioration over time. 

Work includes repairs to the 

subbase, a new asphalt surface 

and new line marking. It started 

last week and is expected to 

finish late next month.

Dreams into Reality: Our Return 

From Linwood High School 1954 to 

Te Aratai College 2022, our school 

continues its proud history. 

We are farewelling Linwood College at Ōtākaro. We 

honour the fact that there has been education on the 

Avonside site for 102 years. The final days of our 

small contribution to this legacy is now, the end of 

term 1. 

In term 2 we return to Aldwins Rd and our completely 

rebuilt and stunning new school. Te Aratai College 

is inspiring from the 650 seat theatre-standard 

auditorium to the sunny student centre and the 

student-friendly courtyards. Our design is for 

personalised student success and reflects the 

new name gifted to us by Ngāi Tūāhuriri, Te Aratai 

College, Pathway to the Sea. 

Reflecting this, our learning and classroom design 

is based on responsiveness to the needs of the 

students at that moment. We have classrooms of the 

standard, time-honoured size but with the flexibility to 

open up. This is because there are occasions when 

learning can be more open but equally there are times 

for some students when this is a learning disaster. Te 

Aratai College also has smaller rooms for students 

who learn best in reduced, very quiet environments, 

and bigger spaces for when learning can be shared 

and for larger student gatherings. This deliberate 

design assists staff and students to respond to the 

many factors that personalise success. 

Of course, new buildings alone do not necessarily 

improve education. The relationship with the 

teacher - he tāngata, he tāngata, he tāngata - 

and the personalisation of learning are the key 

for this. However, there is also no doubt that new, 

purpose-built buildings and spaces that arise 

from these community values of relationships and 

personalisation contribute hugely to student success. 

This is Te Aratai College. 

We look forward to welcoming our community into 

their school. Please see our website for information 

about tours for our partner primary schools, past 

pupils and staff, and other friends.

Food trucks help to feed the homeless 

• From page 1 

The 45-year-old admitted he 

had a bit of a rough upbringing, 

having an absent father due to 

his rock and roll career, making 

Stanton’s home life a bit hectic. 

Born in Australia, Stanton said 

would often bunk school and 

take chips to feed the homeless 

people in public parks. 

When he was nine, Stanton 

moved to New Zealand to 

live with his uncle and shifted 

around a bit before settling in 

Aranui. 

Stanton said he knows what 

it’s like to live in poverty so can 

appreciate helping out those that 

need it, especially when mental 

health is involved. 

“There’s a lot of satisfaction 

talking to someone who’s got 

SPEED LIMITS will be reduced 

on 20 streets in the Avondale 

area to create a slow speed 

neighbourhood and a safer 

environment for residents. 

The decision comes after 

consultation with residents 

revealed complaints about 

vehicles travelling too fast 

through the area. 

The city council agreed on 

the recommendation from the 

Coastal-Burwood Community 

Board to reduce the speed limit 

mental health problems over 

food,” he said. 

“It’s quite interesting actually, 

even as a curiosity standpoint, 

and a giving standpoint so 

they can talk to you without 

judgement.” 

After a few feeds, Stanton 

began reaching out to food 

trucks to see if they wanted to 

participate at a subsidised rate 

from money he raised. 

He recently had Tracey 

Cashin from Tracey’s Grub on 

Hubs food truck reach out to 

him expressing her interest in 

providing food for the homeless. 

Cashin said she enjoys the 

experience of helping others and 

has helped Stanton on several 

occasions before. 

“We’ve probably fed maybe 20 

from 50km/h to 40km/h on all 

roads bounded by Anzac Dr, 

Wainoni Rd, Hulverstone Dr, 

Avondale Rd and Breezes Rd. 

The consultation also 

highlighted issues around 

antisocial driver behaviour. 

City council staff are currently 

working on proposals to deter 

this type of driver behaviour in 

the future. 

City council transport 

operations manager Stephen 

Wright said improving safety 

to 25,” Cashin said. “Last time 

I was here we fed 64 people, 

they come and they go, they 

come and sit down and have 

something to eat, fill their bellies 

and then off they go,” she said. 

Stanton has plans to continue 

growing his charity and has a 

goal of raising $200 a month 

through his Givealittle page to 

cover food costs. 

He said putting the feeds on is 

extremely satisfying and hopes it 

is making a positive difference in 

people’s lives. 

• To donate to Stanton’s 

next homeless feed go 

to https://givealittle.co.nz/ 

cause/httpswwwfacebookcomdemonangelproductions 

on roads is a priority for the city 

council. 

“Everyone should be able to 

get where they’re going safely 

whether they’re walking, cycling, 

driving, motorcycling or using 

public transport,” he said. 

“We have heard from Avondale 

residents that the current 

50km/h speed limit is not safe or 

appropriate for the area and that 

they generally travel well below 

the limit for safety reasons,” 

Wright said.

AN ACCOUNTANT, an 

immigration lawyer and a 

community board chairman 

all share a vision of building 

a community facility in 

Prestons. 

The Marshland Hall Trust, 

run by Coastal-Burwood 

Community Board chairman 

Kelly Barber, Sian Ruth and 

Adele Cornelius is looking 

to purchase a piece of land to 

build what will be a space for 

the community to share. 

And to get the community 

on board with its idea, the 

trust has been hosting trailer 

days over the weekends. 

Barber, Ruth and Cornelius 

take two trailers to the 

Marshland and Prestons areas 

for people to drop off rubbish 

before taking it to the dump, 

the costs being covered by the 

trust. 

Barber said people that have 

dropped off rubbish come 

from all over the subdivisions 

and have been “absolutely 

stoked” and they usually fill 

two trailers. 

“It’s perfect because they 

drive down with just a few 

things in their boot, just the 

things you’d want to take 

to the tip but you probably 

wouldn’t make a special trip 

for it,” he said. 

The trust previously had a 

building at 430 Marshland 

Rd, but received a payout 

after earthquakes damaged 

the building. The trust sold 

the land it was occupying last 

year. 

Now, with the money from 

its previous space, the trust 

has begun consulting with the 

community about what they 

would like to see. 

Some suggestions included 

a basketball court, a stage, 

meeting rooms and the idea 

of hosting functions such as 

weddings was even thrown in 

the mix. 

Barber said the trust wants 

the facility to be self-funding 

and have offices to rent so 

people will be using it all the

The trust has been on a tour 

of a few community centres

more trailer days during the 

weekends that will be posted

We made it whānau, it 

is the last week of Term 

1! What a challenging 11 

weeks it has been!! I want 

to thank our kaimahi 

for their dedication and 

commitment over the 

past 11 weeks. It has not 

been easy for them as 

they have coped with 

the stress and challenge 

of balancing home and 

school life. Like many of you our kaimahi 

have had to isolate themselves with 

Omicron. 

I want to congratulate our ākonga on 

their achievements this term. Even with 

all of the disruption they continue to 

strive for success and excellence. Our 

Newsletter this week is full of examples of 

resilient young people who refuse to allow 

the challenges thrown at us in this COVID 

affected world to get in the way of their 

goals, dreams and aspirations! 

Early in Term 2 we will be revisiting 

some of the Haeata systems that have 

been interrupted due to COVID-19. The 

shared understandings, agreements and 

expectations that underpin our success 

as a kura are rooted in our Values and 

Dispositions and are reflected in the 

following non-negotiables; Tae ā-tinana/ 

Attendance, Whanonga/ 

Behaviour, Taiao/ 

Environment, Paearu mahi/ 

Performance, and Kakahu 

Kura/Uniform. 

A message to ākonga: 

• We have to attend kura 

because Aotearoa New 

Zealand law says we must; 

• We have to behave 

because if we don’t we 

interrupt the ako/learning of 

others; 

• We have to look after our 

environment because if we 

don’t we all suffer; 

• We have to perform because to not 

perform is to fail; 

• We have to wear our uniform with 

pride because not to so disrespects our 

whānau, community and each other. 

On Thursday, 14th April 2022 we 

will be holding our annual ANZAC 

commemoration service. You are warmly 

invited to attend at 12.30pm and take 

your ākonga home afterwards. Kura will 

close at 2.30pm on that day. 

Thank you again for all of your support for 

Haeata - stronger together.

Kia kaha, kia toa, kia manawanui

Haeata Sports Performance Programme 

Update by Te Iwingaro Wairau: 

Haeata Sports Programme has been running coaching sessions for the junior ākonga, from New 

Entrants to Year 6. Through these sessions, the Sports Programme ākonga are gaining coaching 

experience, they have displayed Tuakana-Teina and helped the Kaiako in Hikuawa & Kaunuku, 

but more importantly have kept the junior ākonga healthy, active and fit. 

They have been focusing on skills that will be incorporated into one event, the Haeata Olympics 

which will be held on Tuesday the 12th of April. The throwing events include the ‘Chicken 

Throw’, the ‘Noodle Throw’ and the ‘Tennis ball throw’. We also have hurdles and the 20m, 

40m & 60m sprints. 

Photography Update by 

Michelle McConnell: 

A HUGE thank you to Canon New Zealand for their generous donation of cameras for our NCEA 

Photography programme. They are currently familiarising themselves with using the cameras and have 

been taking a few photos around kura to explore different settings, lighting and angles. Our ākonga 

already love how professional their work is looking with the new cameras and will be able to work on 

their photography portfolios with confidence next term! Here are some photos taken by our ākonga. 

Performing Arts Feature: Caoimhe 

Hungerford - Head Girl/ Māreikura 

Being Head Girl, while working towards your NCEA Level 3 for entry 

into University and actively participating in kura activities, is not an easy 

task. Then add 7-11 hours spent on dancing a week into the mix and 

this is where you will meet Caoimhe Hungerford. 

Caoimhe started doing Ballet at the age of six and she added 

competitive Hip-Hop at 8 years old to her repertoire. As a teenager 

she started contemporary dance and later fell in love with KPOP. 

When asked about her love for dance, she said: “Why I love it is a 

hard question. I’ve done it for as long as I can remember, so if I were 

to stop, my life would feel so empty and lazy, ya know? I love it cause 

it’s just so normal to me. Like when I’m brushing my teeth, there’s 

almost always a song playing in my head and I’m subconsciously 

choreographing it.” 

Caoimhe loves the final product of ballet, the emotion of 

contemporary dance, the fun of Hip-Hop and enjoys the difficulty and “craziness” of KPOP. She 

has become a talented choreographer as well. She teaches dance classes and she will be the 

choreographer of the HCC Dance Crew, starting in term 2. 

On her future in dance she replied: “Dance will always be 

part of my future but probably not as a career. I plan to 

study film production and maybe go into the dance/music 

video side of that. While I’m planning this, I occasionally 

submit dance auditions to companies just as a “what if?”. It 

is my dream to perform on stage for as long as I can, but 

it’s a hard industry to do well in and make a living out of.” 

She is inspired by choreographers like Bada Lee and a 

group called 3RACHA. On her motivation for working 

so hard she said: “I don’t really have a motto, but when it 

gets hard or I’m slowing down a bit, I’m just like ‘someone 

else has it much harder than you so get up bro’.” She 

continued by stating: “My greatest accomplishment in 

dance is that I’m still going and that I haven’t quit. When 

people see me limping or injured they’re like “take a 

break” or “just stop dancing man” but I have to keep 

going. My body may be bruised but I have strapping tape 

to hold me together:)”. 

May the world be your stage and gratification be your 

applause Caoimhe! Thank you for sharing a glimpse of 

your world with us.
