Army Reserve Force Private Shannon Harrison, of Shirley, was<br />
one of 60 soldiers who took part in a training exercise on the<br />
West Coast. The section signaler was involved in Exercise Kalami<br />
in dense forest near Maruia. Their task was to follow a defined<br />
path through the bush while under attack. But the decaying<br />
undergrowth and limited visibility challenged them all as they<br />
patrolled the area with their weapons and packs while the enemy<br />
confronted them at every turn. PHOTOS: JOHN COSGROVE<br />

New signs<br />
installed<br />
to target<br />
unlawful<br />

• By Emily Moorhouse<br />
CONCERNS FOR safety and<br />
complaints about noise from<br />
unauthorised motorbikes have<br />
prompted 20 “no motorbikes”<br />
signs to be put up around the<br />
red zone.<br />
Ashley Campbell regularly<br />
walks her two little dogs around<br />
the Avonside area and said some<br />
people were using the area as<br />
an off-road dirt track for their<br />
motorbikes.<br />
Campbell said the issue with<br />
motorbikes has been ongoing, but<br />
recently worsened with teenagers<br />
and adults seen riding around<br />
parks, tearing up the grass and<br />
making excessive noise.<br />
“It’s an accident waiting to<br />
happen,” she said. “It’s becoming<br />
more of a problem.”<br />
Campbell reached out to the<br />
city council’s red zone team to<br />
see what could be done and was<br />
pleased to hear signs will be<br />
installed.<br />
Red zone manager Dave Little<br />
said riding motorbikes within<br />
parks is prohibited under a bylaw.<br />
“We have recently experienced<br />
an uptick in this behaviour and so<br />
are increasing signage to remind<br />
people that this activity is not<br />
permitted,” he said.<br />

WE ALL seem to be behaving<br />
ourselves this holidays.<br />
That is the report card of the<br />
Christchurch North Community<br />
Patrol, with chairman Sam Hall<br />
describing the summertime situation<br />
as “pretty<br />
good.”<br />
Park and<br />
picnic areas<br />
have been on<br />
the patrol radar,<br />
standard for this<br />
time of year.<br />
“We haven’t<br />
actua ly had to<br />
report anything<br />
from the picnic areas around,”<br />
Hall said.<br />
“It was a l very family-orientated,<br />
so it’s been quite good.”<br />
More family groups than usual<br />
seemed to be out, possibly because<br />
the Covid-19 pandemic was preventing<br />
people from leaving town<br />
for a holiday, he said.<br />
Being a frequent presence<br />
was also helpful in deterring<br />
incidents.<br />
December and January were<br />
also the time of year the patrol<br />
focused on monitoring schools,<br />
but no issues had arisen there<br />
either.<br />
Another summertime staple<br />
was fire danger patrol.<br />

No decision<br />
yet to<br />
appeal<br />
declining of<br />
rehabilitation<br />
facility<br />
• By Fiona E lis<br />
THE DEPARTMENT of<br />
Corrections has until February 9<br />
to appeal after permission to build<br />
a contentious rehabilitation centre<br />
for violent offenders in St Albans<br />
was declined.<br />
However, it is remaining tightlipped<br />
on whether or not it is likely<br />
to do so.<br />
Last week the Bristol Street<br />
Resource Consent Hearing panel<br />
declined to grant resource consent<br />
for the Bristol St facility, fo lowing<br />
a hearing in November.<br />
The proposal would have seen<br />
up to <strong>12</strong> men serving sentences<br />
of home detention at 14 Bristol St<br />
while participating in a violenceprevention<br />
programme. Men<br />
with significant untreated mental<br />
health issues would not be eligible<br />
to participate in the programme.<br />
In their decision, city council<br />
appointed commissioners Anthony<br />
Hughes-Johnson QC and Ken<br />
Lawn said they were not satisfied<br />
the site was appropriate for such a<br />
facility.<br />
Corrections acting regional<br />
commissioner Chris O’Brien-<br />
Smith did not answer Nor’West<br />
New’s question on whether an<br />
appeal would be made, but said<br />
corrections would spend the<br />
next few weeks reflecting on the<br />
commissioners’ findings.<br />

Styx trust celebrates 20 years<br />
THE STYX Living Laboratory<br />
Trust is marking its 20-year<br />
anniversary this month.<br />
The trust was set up in 2002<br />
to achieve Vision 3 of the city<br />
council document Styx Vision<br />
2000-2040, which is to create a<br />
living laboratory that focuses<br />
on research and learning in the<br />
Pūharakekenui/Styx catchment.<br />
“The trustees, staff and<br />
volunteers are advocates for<br />
maintaining water quality and<br />
other values including ecology,<br />
drainage, culture, heritage,<br />
landscape and recreation<br />
in the awa,” said the trust’s<br />
conservation projects manager<br />
Bethany Baker.<br />
“We are passionate about<br />
the Pūharakekenui and want<br />
it to remain clean, healthy and<br />
biodiverse so that it is available<br />
for future generations to use and<br />
enjoy.”<br />
The trust and the city<br />
council have spent the last 20<br />
years working on protecting<br />
freshwater quality and restoring<br />
ecological function and viability<br />
of vulnerable waterways.<br />
City council parks biodiversity<br />
team leader Dr Antony Shadbolt<br />
said: “So much incredible<br />
work has been achieved over<br />
the past two decades from<br />
strong environmental advocacy<br />
and long-term water quality<br />
improvement to bird monitoring<br />
and significant forest planting.”<br />
LIVING LABORATORY: The Styx trust and the city council have spent the last 20 years<br />
working on protecting freshwater quality and restoring ecological function and viability of<br />
vulnerable waterways.<br />
PHOTO: NEWSLINE<br />
The trust has recently received<br />
$4.2 million from the Ministry<br />
of Environment’s freshwater<br />
improvement fund and jobs in<br />
nature, which will go towards<br />
planting more than two hectares<br />
of forest and two hectares of<br />
riparian planting, planned<br />
for each year over the next<br />
five years.<br />
“We will also be working on<br />
eradicating grey willow from the<br />
upper catchment and putting<br />
in stock-proof fencing along the<br />
waterways,” Shadbolt said.<br />
As part of the celebration, the<br />
Christine Heremaia Field Centre<br />
was opened earlier this month<br />
to further research development<br />
in the catchment and host<br />
school visits and community<br />
workshops.<br />
The field centre has been 20<br />
years in the making and will be<br />
the base of the trust’s eight staff,<br />
with three more joining the team<br />
in July.<br />
Motorbike<br />
damage<br />
unexpected<br />
• From page 1<br />
Motorbike riders face a maximum<br />
penalty of $1600 for riding<br />
in an unauthorised area.<br />
Burwood resident Angela Todd<br />
the damage caused by motorbike<br />
users is disappointing and not<br />
what you’d expect in the area.<br />
“The times I have seen them,<br />
they were speeding around without<br />
any regard for anyone else,”<br />
Todd said.<br />
“On one occasion they sped<br />
down Locksley Ave at what would<br />
have been over 50km/hr.”<br />
The new signs have been<br />
installed around the red zone’s<br />
green spine, from Richmond<br />
through to Bexley Park, with one<br />
in South New Brighton.<br />
Campbell said while it was<br />
“positive” the new signs were<br />
installed, she doubts it will stop<br />
all motorbike users from riding<br />
around the parks.<br />

‘You can change things for the better’<br />
• By Emily Moorhouse<br />
HELPING stranded whales and<br />
preserving endangered plants<br />
might seem pretty out there for<br />
some, but for park ranger Dave<br />
Rate-Smith this is just another<br />
day in the office.<br />
The 43-year-old is trained in<br />
horticulture, construction and<br />
fine arts, and said being a park<br />
ranger lets him use all these skills.<br />
“You could be answering<br />
emails, then fixing a broken<br />
waterline or making park furniture,”<br />
he said. “I’m prone to<br />
getting bored easily and being a<br />
ranger I don’t get bored.”<br />
Before Rate-Smith became a<br />
ranger four years ago, he owned<br />
a construction business, after<br />
seeing the need for it following<br />
the earthquakes.<br />
After seven years he closed the<br />
business and joined ecological<br />
firm Wai-ora, working his way<br />
up to team leader in two years<br />
before jumping at the opportunity<br />
to become a ranger for<br />
Bottle Lake Forest Park.<br />
Now Rate-Smith looks after<br />
multiple parks including Styx<br />
Mill, The Groynes, McLeans<br />
Island and Roto Kohatu.<br />
He said the job changes everyday<br />
and you have to be prepared<br />
to “throw your plans out the<br />
window at any given second.”<br />
Rate-Smith especially likes<br />
Sundays because that’s when he<br />
can talk to the public the most.<br />
“It’s when you actually do that<br />
DREAM JOB: Dave Rate-Smith has been a park ranger for four years and said he gets<br />
excited about going to work.<br />
PHOTOS: EMILY MOORHOUSE<br />
you become aware of problems<br />
you might have missed,” he<br />
said. “I really like seeing their<br />
reactions when we change and<br />
improve an area.”<br />
The responsibilities of a ranger<br />
seem endless. The job requires<br />
problem-solving skills, having<br />
to be a trained firefighter, and<br />
handling animals such as whales<br />
and sea lions.<br />
“We end up with a good range<br />
of skills but not being specialists<br />
in any of them, which suits me to<br />
a tee,” Rate-Smith said.<br />
Describing himself as an outdoors<br />
person, Rate-Smith said<br />
being out in nature is definitely<br />
one of the highlights of the job.<br />
“It’s what calms me as a person,<br />
that’s my happy place in life,<br />
hearing the fantails twittering<br />
away,” he said. “That really sort<br />
of puts a smile on my face.<br />
NATURE: Rate-Smith said<br />
being outdoors is one of<br />
the highlights of being a<br />
park ranger.<br />
“There’s times I think I’d love<br />
to go off and work for DOC in<br />
the middle of nowhere but aside<br />
from my wife not appreciating it,<br />
I would actually miss the social<br />
side of it.”<br />
When asked what the strangest<br />
“It’s not a day in parks<br />
until you pick up a pair of<br />
undies”<br />
– Dave Rate-Smith<br />
thing he’s come across at one of<br />
the parks he laughed and said<br />
“those would not be appropriate<br />
for paper”.<br />
“We see some shocking things<br />
aye, we see the best and the worst<br />
of human nature,” he said.<br />
“People go to parks to do weird<br />
things, they really do. It’s not a<br />
day in parks until you pick up a<br />
pair of undies.”<br />

Ranger creates legacy<br />
Teen bound for<br />
maths Olympiad<br />
CREATIVE: Rate-Smith built this seat in collaboration with a local carver and weaver for<br />
one of the parks, and made a fairy house in his spare time for the children’s fairy forest in<br />
Bottle Lake Forest Park.<br />
• From page 5<br />
When he was tasked with<br />
replacing picnic tables at The<br />
Groynes, Rate-Smith said he<br />
“wasn’t impressed” with the<br />
cost so took it upon himself to<br />
design his own tables and get<br />
an engineer to build and install<br />
them. This roughly halved the<br />
cost of ordering tables in.<br />
It’s things like this that<br />
make Rate-Smith get up in the<br />
morning feeling excited to go<br />
to work, something he feels<br />
fortunate to experience.<br />
While Rate-Smith loves his<br />
job, he said there are some<br />
aspects that he really struggles<br />
with, particularly seeing people<br />
damage the parks.<br />
“We do all of this work and<br />
there’s always an element to<br />
society that seem to congregate<br />
in parks that want to destroy<br />
stuff,” he said.<br />
“You put everything you can<br />
into it and you do believe in what<br />
you’re doing, and it might only<br />
last a week before somebody’s<br />
destroyed it.”<br />
He said the rangers had seen<br />
an increase in people doing<br />
burn-outs at The Groynes,<br />
ripping the paddocks to pieces,<br />
and wondered if this was due to<br />
frustrations with Covid.<br />
This time of year tends to<br />
be the quietest for the rangers<br />
and they spend it planning and<br />
planting as well as taking in new<br />
volunteers to help out around<br />
the parks.<br />
Outside of work, Rate-Smith<br />
enjoys pottering in his garage,<br />
gardening and painting, and<br />
is even learning how to tattoo,<br />
using his legs as a drawing board<br />
for his “doodles”.<br />
One of his favourite parts of<br />
the job is seeing changes such<br />
as rare birds coming back to<br />
an area or catching glimpses of<br />
waterways improving through<br />
the work the rangers do.<br />
“We could well be leaving<br />
something for people hundreds<br />
of years from now,” he said.<br />
“You can change things for<br />
the better so easily; you get to do<br />
something good everyday.”<br />

BURNSIDE HIGH School<br />
student Grady Kenix has been<br />
selected as a member of the New<br />
Zealand Mathematics Olympiad<br />
team.<br />
The 17-year-old is in his final<br />
year at school and is one of just<br />
six students selected, and the only<br />
one outside of Auckland.<br />
He will compete at the 63rd<br />
International Mathematical Olympiad<br />
in Norway in July, which<br />
is expected to draw teams from<br />
more than 100 countries.<br />
Ironically, Grady elected to<br />
drop maths after Year 11, but<br />
has continued to have a strong<br />
interest in the subject outside of<br />
the formal classroom setting.<br />
His interest in maths started at<br />
primary school in Lyttelton, he<br />
said.<br />
“We had a really good teacher<br />
called Jeremy and he was the one<br />
who stirred up my interest and fascination<br />
for the subject and started<br />
the maths journey for me.’’<br />
Grady’s quest to be part of<br />
the New Zealand Mathematics<br />
Olympiad team started over 10<br />
months ago, alongside hundreds<br />
of other hopefuls.<br />
Over those months and after<br />
many hours of tuition, training<br />
camps and competitions, entry<br />
numbers were steadily whittled<br />
down to the final elite students.<br />
Grady was given his selection<br />
news recently and is modest<br />
about his achievements.<br />
“I’m happy to have been chosen<br />
after a long selection process and<br />
a lot of work, and I am looking<br />
forward to testing my maths<br />
skills against other students<br />
from around the world,” he<br />
said.<br />
He receives $2000 towards the<br />
costs of attending the olympiad<br />
and will use earnings from his<br />
waiter job at Lyttelton’s Nomnom<br />
Kitchen to help fund the trip.<br />
His travels will include a<br />
stopover in his birth-land of<br />
the USA, which he left at ninemonths-old<br />
to come to New<br />
Zealand.<br />
Saving those<br />
precious photos<br />
A passion for properly preserving precious<br />
family photos has been a business for Gail<br />
Ruddle since 2004. She became a distributor<br />
for Creative Memories in 2015, and based<br />
in Christchurch she is one of only three<br />
distributors in New Zealand. An avid<br />
scrapbooker, Gail loves helping people to<br />
preserve their photos and memories.<br />
Founded in the United States in 1987,<br />
Creative Memories is widely known for<br />
leading the scrapbooking industry with<br />
world-class products. Today’s Creative<br />
Memories was re-launched in 2014<br />
under new ownership, but with the same<br />
exceptional quality and modern design.<br />
So, where are your precious photos?<br />
Answer: they are everywhere. In your<br />
phone, on your tablet. You may have a<br />
point-n-shoot camera or a DSLR. You can’t<br />
escape the selfies, Instagram, Pinterest, and<br />
Facebook. And today, people are taking more<br />
photos than ever before. It’s been estimated<br />
that in the past five years, more photos have<br />
been taken than all the prior years combined.<br />
Sadly, few of these photographs will survive<br />
beyond a year. As Gail notes, the reason most<br />
photographs being taken today will soon be<br />
totally gone is that digital images are not seen<br />
as important enough to be kept in printed<br />
form.<br />
Also, technology has changed so fast, that<br />
many photographs taken six or seven years<br />
ago are stored on media that is no longer<br />
supported, such as floppy discs. In a few years,<br />
DVDs will likely be obsolete as will USB drives.<br />
So, to preserve those precious photos, they<br />
need to be printed out and kept safe.<br />
Avid scrapbooker Gail Ruddle looks<br />
forward to hosting her Creative Memories<br />
Open Home and welcomes anyone<br />
interested in the hobby to attend.<br />
During these unexpected COVID times,<br />
Gail says, more people have been turning to<br />
scrapbooking to reinvigorate a hobby and<br />
celebrate the good times recorded in photos,<br />
from recent times, or dating back decades.<br />
Gail’s vision for this year is to get the<br />
message out that Creative Memories is still<br />
trading. She holds monthly scrapbooking<br />
workshops, during the week, evenings and on<br />
a Saturday, as well as a digital evening, where<br />
she is available to educate and provide handson<br />
assistance. She can also provide one-onone<br />
assistance in your home or hers.<br />
If you would like to know more about<br />
Creative Memories, or re-connect with the<br />
hobby, Gail is having an Open Home on<br />
Saturday, <strong>May</strong> 21, 10am to 2pm.<br />
Products will be available for purchase<br />
and to order. Check out the website<br />

the course’s impact on Pasifika<br />
participants. She recorded<br />
changes in blood pressure,<br />
cholesterol profile, blood sugar,<br />
weight and body fat.<br />
Faatoese said early analysis<br />
of data showed all participants<br />
dropped body fat and had<br />
lower triglyceride levels.<br />
High triglycerides are often a<br />
sign of other conditions that<br />
increase the risk of heart disease<br />
and stroke.<br />
Pegasus Health chief executive<br />
Mark Liddle said Puāwai-Kai<br />
helps people learn how small<br />
changes in the way they live can<br />
add up to big changes in their<br />
health and well-being.<br />
A big change for Taitoko has<br />
been growing his own food.<br />
“Being Māori, it’s been getting<br />
back to the garden and learning<br />
about that again. Because we<br />
have been distant. We come into<br />
the city and found the easy food,<br />
the fast food to get by. But is it<br />
the healthiest food? I don’t think<br />
so.<br />
“So it’s going back to the<br />
garden again and growing those<br />
veges. I’m quite lucky because<br />
my whole family is starting to<br />
get into well-being. We bring<br />
different foods to the table now.”<br />

Board requests briefing over vape store rise<br />
• By Emily Moorhouse<br />
FRUSTRATION from residents<br />
about vape stores opening in<br />
Addington has prompted the<br />
area’s community board to<br />
investigate vaping restrictions.<br />
The Waihoro Spreydon-Cashmere<br />
Community Board has<br />
requested a briefing on vaping<br />
restrictions through smokefree<br />
legislation.<br />
Board member Callum Ward<br />
was approached by resident Jo<br />
Robertson, who is concerned<br />
about the concentration of vape<br />
stores in a small area like Addington.<br />
Ward said the board hasn’t<br />
formed a position on the issue<br />
yet and is awaiting a briefing.<br />
“We know that vaping does<br />
have negative health consequences<br />
and is no longer just a<br />
replacement for smokers,” he<br />
said.<br />
Ward also mentioned the risk<br />
of vaping undoing a lot of work<br />
that’s being done in society to<br />
prevent people from getting addicted<br />
to nicotine, particularly<br />
young people who go straight to<br />
vaping.<br />
Robertson, who is school<br />
community liaison at Addington<br />
School, said vaping is being<br />
discussed among residents due<br />
to an increase in vaping shops set<br />
to open in the area.<br />
She said there was already<br />
two vape shops in Addington<br />
and another one was going to be<br />
opening soon, as well as dairys<br />
selling vapes.<br />
“It’s probably to do with the<br />
proportion of kinds of shops that<br />
are in the community,” Robertson<br />
said.<br />
“If you end up with a lot of<br />
liquor stores, vape stores, it just<br />
tips the balance of stores that are<br />
bringing positive health-promoting<br />
things into the community to<br />
stores that are bringing kind of<br />
health-constraining things.”<br />
Robertson said she wants the<br />
city council to talk about putting<br />
regulations in place rather than<br />
“just letting the market decide”.<br />
“I think the community would<br />
like to see things that are bringing<br />
health and well-being into<br />
our community,” she said.<br />
The manager of Hoopers<br />
CONCERN:<br />
Addington<br />
resident Jo<br />
Robertson<br />
said she<br />
wants<br />
the city<br />
council to<br />
have more<br />
regulations<br />
around<br />
what kinds<br />
of shops can<br />
open in the<br />
community.<br />
Vapour in Addington, who<br />
declined to be named, said he<br />
had noticed a few different vape<br />
shops in the area, something his<br />
customers said wasn’t necessary.<br />
The business has been operating<br />
for roughly five years and<br />
hasn’t received any complaints<br />
from residents.<br />
“I believe we are serving people<br />
who want to quit smoking,” he<br />
said. “What most non-smokers<br />
or non-vapers don’t realise is that<br />
people addicted to nicotine become<br />
aggravated when they can’t<br />
have it. It’s like having a morning<br />
coffee.”<br />
He said the business has<br />
helped people quit smoking and<br />
as the price of tobacco increases,<br />
it was important to provide<br />
an alternative.<br />

Let's Take a<br />
Look Together<br />
The property market would be<br />
defined as one of New Zealand’s most<br />
significant economic determinants.<br />
It requires constant interpretation<br />
and review, including looking ahead<br />
– sometimes well ahead.<br />
Although stepping into the future is<br />
potentially scary, long-term business<br />
sustainability requires just that. Recently<br />
I got an appreciation of what that<br />
future could potentially look like using<br />
the strategic intelligence detailed in<br />
a report by The Real Estate Institute<br />
of New Zealand titled Megatrends: A<br />
Report on New Zealand Property <strong>2022</strong>.<br />
It’s a significant document, of relevance<br />
not just to those in the real estate sector<br />
but anyone with an eye on global and<br />
local property trends.<br />
Remembering that a megatrend is a<br />
major shift in environmental, social<br />
and economic conditions that can<br />
substantially change how we live,<br />
these are some of the ones that<br />
stood out to me:<br />
• The return of the home office – this<br />
came under the megatrend titled<br />
‘Hybrid Working’.<br />
Due to COVID, home offices have become<br />
a vital consideration when purchasing<br />
and I only wish I’d incorporated one when<br />
we built a new home six years ago. At the<br />
time of building, I thought an office was<br />
outdated and would never be used, but<br />
how wrong I was and how much easier<br />
having one would have made life during<br />
periods of lockdown and isolation.<br />
The reason this pre-empts a potential<br />
megatrend is what would happen if<br />
everyone wanted to work from home<br />
permanently.<br />
• Digitisation – yes, there’s a strong place<br />
for digitised processes with automated<br />
tasks fitting this space. But the report<br />
noted that people remain essential in real<br />
estate areas where human connection<br />
and creativity are required. Phew! I was<br />
pleased to see that, but it’s really about<br />
superb connectivity skills and creativity<br />
aimed at maximizing a client’s returns<br />
whilst maintaining transparency.<br />
• Rental Reality – I think this one will come<br />
as no surprise. Homeownership rates are<br />
falling and there is a greater acceptance<br />
of renting rather than owning.<br />

For the landlord, there’s the benefit of<br />
a return on his/her investment and for<br />
the tenant it can allow them to invest<br />
their resources (given they have them)<br />
in a more diversified number of assets<br />
besides a mortgage.<br />
There’s also the development of<br />
institutional investment. If you want<br />
to know more about this practice, I’d<br />
encourage you to download the whole<br />
report. It details this sector, which in North<br />
America is considered a major investable<br />
asset class while being embryonic in<br />
other parts of the world including NZ.<br />
So why have I told you all of this? It could<br />
be because I wanted to get my word<br />
count up, it could be because it interests<br />
me, which it does, or maybe it’s because<br />
it gives us all tips and insights into where<br />
our future could be heading – and it’s a<br />
great time to start talking about just that.<br />
