Largest-ever native planting<br />
project gets the go-ahead<br />
MORE THAN 100,000 native<br />
trees will be planted in the southwest<br />
as part of a network of<br />
new wetland areas in the upper<br />
catchment of the Ōpāwaho/<br />
Heathcote River.<br />
It will be the largest native<br />
planting project ever undertaken<br />
by the city council.<br />
The Eastman Wetland landscape<br />
plan was approved by the<br />
Waipuna Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton<br />
Community Board, with<br />
planting to take place over the<br />
next three years.<br />
“This project will<br />
return a vast area of<br />
native plants to the city,<br />
reduce the amount of<br />
sediment going into<br />
waterways and protect<br />
natural springs,” city<br />
council head of three<br />
waters Helen Beaumont<br />
said.<br />
“The wetlands act as<br />
a storage basin in heavy rainfall,<br />
reducing downstream flooding<br />
and improving waterway health.<br />
They’ll also provide a wonderful<br />
area for people to connect<br />
with nature and will create new<br />
habitat for native birds, fish and<br />
insects.”<br />
City council contractors have<br />
been developing the 100-hectare<br />
facility on former farmland<br />
between Cashmere and Sutherlands<br />
Rd and towards Hoon Hay<br />
Valley.<br />
The large ponds will capture<br />
and store excess stormwater and<br />
Helen<br />
Beaumont<br />
act as a natural filter before the<br />
water flows into the Cashmere<br />
Stream and on to the river.<br />
Both of these waterways have<br />
freshwater crayfish, freshwater<br />
mussels, whitebait and other<br />
native fish.<br />
“Now we have the landscape<br />
plan approval we can start to<br />
look at the planting programme.<br />
The council’s Harewood Nursery<br />
has been working with suppliers<br />
for the past two years as a<br />
programme of this scale requires<br />
a lot of preparation,” Beaumont<br />
said.<br />
The plan provides for<br />
30,000 to 35,000 tall trees<br />
that will grow up to 12m<br />
high, 70,000 to 75,000 small<br />
trees and shrubs growing<br />
up to 5m high, and between<br />
600,000 and 650,000 plants.<br />
Large areas of rongoā<br />
garden will be developed<br />
to provide a sustainable<br />
place to collect plants for use<br />
in traditional Māori medicine.<br />
Walking and cycling tracks are<br />
included as part of the<br />
landscape plan, along with<br />
a car park.<br />
Provision has also been made<br />
for a cycling pump track to be<br />
included. City council staff will<br />
be working with Cashmere<br />
High School students to help<br />
them design and build the track.<br />
“We hope this project will<br />
positively benefit people of all<br />
ages and from right across the<br />
city,” said Beaumont.<br />
LARGE SCALE: The Eastman Wetland landscape plan has been approved, with planting<br />
more than 100,000 native trees in the south-west to take place over the next three years.<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, following<br />
a hearing in November.<br />
The proposal would have seen<br />
up to 12 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 />

Community gardens grow in popularity<br />
• By Anna Sargent<br />

volunteer numbers have ‘skyrocketed’.<br />
PHOTO: ANNA SARGENT<br />
PEOPLE ARE flocking to<br />
Christchurch community<br />
gardens to save money and boost<br />
mental health.<br />
Saving money was a significant<br />
reason why people wanted to<br />
learn how to grow vegetables at<br />
Richmond Community Garden,<br />
chairperson Hayley Guglietta<br />
said.<br />
“I think it’s essential for society<br />
to learn how to grow from a<br />
seed.”<br />
New Brighton Community<br />
Garden manager Catherine<br />
O’Neill said visitor and volunteer<br />
numbers have “skyrocketed”<br />
since the beginning of Covid<br />
lockdowns.<br />
The garden has about 17 volunteers<br />
and 13 visitors each day<br />
it is open. Funding and administration<br />
manager Lin Klenner<br />
said this was “easily double” the<br />
number of people from two years<br />
ago.<br />
Klenner attributed this increased<br />
interest in gardening and<br />
vegetable growing to people having<br />
been stuck at home during<br />
lockdowns from 2020.<br />
“The problem is a lot of people<br />
didn’t have the skills, so when<br />
lockdown was over people came<br />
to community gardens to learn<br />
more.”<br />
O’Neill said being able to<br />
grow your own vegetables was<br />
“empowering”, as people became<br />
more self-sufficient and less reliant<br />
on outside sources for fresh<br />
produce.<br />
Volunteers at New Brighton<br />
Community Garden can take<br />
home vegetables and seedlings<br />
after they have worked for two<br />
hours.<br />
Regular volunteer Tony has<br />
helped at the garden for three<br />
years. He said he appreciates the<br />
vegetables he gets to take home,<br />
and the skills he has learned in<br />
growing different plants.<br />
Tony volunteers all year<br />
around and enjoys “seeing the<br />
four seasons” being reflected in<br />
the garden.<br />
Christchurch South Community<br />
Gardens Trust manager<br />
Christine Blance also reported<br />
an increased interest from people<br />
wanting to learn vegetablegrowing<br />
skills.<br />
“There is a satisfaction and<br />
pleasure in creating something<br />
yourself and sharing the crops<br />
with people,” she said.<br />
Both Christchurch South<br />
Community Garden and<br />
Richmond Community Garden<br />
PRODUCE: Volunteers at the garden can take home some<br />
of the fresh vegetables harvested.<br />
have reported an increase in<br />
volunteers over the last two<br />
years.<br />
O’Neill said the mental health<br />
benefits of gardening were well<br />
known.<br />
“They’ve done studies on<br />
wellbeing and one big thing is<br />
getting your hands in the soil,<br />
to get good feelings into your<br />
brain.”<br />
A literature review by UK<br />
organisations Garden Organic<br />
and Sustain said gardening<br />
and community food growing<br />
improved mental and physical<br />
health. It claimed gardening can<br />
reduce stress and depression, and<br />
improve people’s health because<br />
they are eating more fruit and<br />
vegetables.<br />
The social connection aspect<br />
of community gardens can also<br />
boost mental health. Tony said<br />
his mood always improved after<br />
spending time at the garden.<br />
High food prices are also<br />
driving people to grow their own<br />
vegetables.<br />
Fruit and vegetable prices at<br />
supermarkets have jumped 17 per<br />
cent over the last year, according<br />
to Stats NZ. The biggest increases<br />
were the cost of tomatoes, broccoli<br />
and iceberg lettuces.<br />
Klenner said rising prices<br />
made it more attractive for<br />
volunteers to come to the<br />
community garden, to be able to<br />
take home some vegetables and<br />
learn growing skills they can use<br />
in their own gardens.<br />

Saving the planet with skateboards<br />
• By Emily Moorhouse<br />
A 15-YEAR-OLD plans<br />
to educate people on the<br />
importance of recycling through<br />
his skateboard business.<br />
Neith Absalom has found a<br />
way to reuse plastic bottle tops<br />
by melting them down to make<br />
skateboard decks.<br />
Neith is a student at special<br />
character school Ao Tawhiti in<br />
the central city and got the idea<br />
to make skateboards during a<br />
self-directed learning session.<br />
Neith decided he wanted to<br />
take up rowing, but needed<br />
funds to cover the cost of the<br />
sport, inspiring him to start a<br />
business that worked towards<br />
eco-friendliness at the same<br />
time.<br />
After some researching, Neith<br />
learned that number two plastic<br />
(high-density polyethylene),<br />
made out of plastic bottle tops<br />
often isn’t recycled.<br />
“It’s really easy to melt safely. I<br />
had a thing with skateboards because<br />
I really love skateboarding<br />
so it turned into art pieces and<br />
skateboards,” Neith said.<br />
“The current crisis that we’re<br />
in now is people kind of saying<br />
it’s going to be alright and really<br />
it’s not, and my whole thing is to<br />
open people’s eyes up to the stuff<br />
that we’re not recycling which is<br />
quite easily recycled.”<br />
Neith uses just over 1000 bottle<br />
tops to make a board, shredding<br />
the plastic before melting it<br />
down at 120-150 deg C in a metal<br />
frame using a “bake oven.”<br />
Neith made his first board<br />
last year with an old heat plate<br />
he found on Trade Me, using a<br />
wooden frame, but this burnt so<br />
he switched to a metal frame that<br />
his friend Monty shaped for him<br />
in their school’s tech room.<br />
‘As long as it’s not thrown<br />
back into the rubbish I’m<br />
happy’<br />
– Neith Absalom<br />
Now, he uses what he calls a<br />
bake oven, but said it’s really just<br />
an old barbecue.<br />
It takes about one and a half to<br />
two hours to fully melt the bottle<br />
tops down, applying pressure<br />
with a non-stick sheet.<br />
Neith then takes the board to<br />
the school’s tech room to smooth<br />
out the edges and put holes in<br />
it where the wheels would be<br />
MELT: Absalom shreds the<br />
bottle tops in a shredder<br />
before melting them down<br />
into a steel mold in an old<br />
barbecue.<br />
attached.<br />
A problem Neith ran into during<br />
the process was the lack of<br />
grip on the board, which didn’t<br />
matter if the board was put on<br />
display as art, like the ones he<br />
has in his school’s cafe and New<br />
Brighton’s Pier People art gallery.<br />
However, if they were being<br />
used practically, they needed to<br />
have more grip on the surface,<br />
so his mother Natalie suggested<br />
getting old coffee sacks that cafes<br />
throw away and pressing them<br />
into the board.<br />
This would not only create a<br />
cool pattern but gives the surface<br />
of the board a much better grip,<br />
Neith said.<br />
He said his mother has often<br />
chipped in to help with his<br />
business and is very supportive<br />
of him as well as his learning<br />
adviser (teacher) Ian Hayes.<br />
“He’s real good to me and helping<br />
me get on the right track and<br />
believes that I can do it and nothing’s<br />
going to get in my way.”<br />
Now that Neith has figured out<br />
the right process to making the<br />
boards, he plans to start selling<br />
them and working on getting his<br />
brand out there.<br />
He sells the boards for $120<br />
ART: (Above left) – The<br />
board Neith Absalom<br />
designed for the Pier<br />
People art gallery in New<br />
Brighton and (above) the<br />
one that sits on display in<br />
Ao Tawhiti’s cafe.<br />
each and said the money he<br />
makes will go straight back into<br />
the business for now before he<br />
can start making a profit.<br />
When asked if he was going to<br />
take up rowing soon he said he<br />
wasn’t sure anymore.<br />
“I’ve kind of made this really<br />
good eco business that I kind of<br />
maybe want to carry on forever,”<br />
he laughed.<br />
When people ask Neith if the<br />
boards are strong enough he says<br />
they seem to be stronger than the<br />
wooden ones you get from places<br />
like The Warehouse.<br />
“As long as you know how to<br />
put a skateboard together then<br />
you’re sweet,” he said.<br />

‘As long as it’s not thrown back<br />
into the rubbish I’m happy’<br />
• From page 5<br />
Neith, of Greta Valley, sources<br />
the bottle tops from cafes around<br />
the city and a retirement village<br />
in Amberley, as well as the<br />
Halswell Community Hub.<br />
He’s even received a load of<br />
bottle tops from someone in<br />
Waikato who had come across<br />
his Facebook page, which he said<br />
was pretty cool.<br />
When he leaves school, Neith<br />
wants to be a chiropractor or<br />
physiotherapist, as he likes<br />
helping people but doesn’t like<br />
blood.<br />
He has future plans to make<br />
longboard decks and include<br />
wheels on them as a step up from<br />
the smaller boards he’s making<br />
without wheels.<br />
He said he doesn’t mind what<br />
people do with the skateboards,<br />
whether they use them practically<br />
or hang them up on display.<br />
“That’s cool with me as long<br />
as it’s loved, as long as it’s not<br />
thrown back into the rubbish I’m<br />
happy,” he said.<br />
To have a look at Neith’s work<br />
go to ‘Over The Top Recycling’<br />
on Facebook.<br />

Metal dog tags to replace<br />
annual plastic ones<br />
METAL TAGS to last your<br />
dog’s lifetime will be rolled<br />
out as part of this year’s dog<br />
registration renewal period.<br />
The city council’s new<br />
rectangular dog tags will<br />
have a unique identification<br />
number on them and will<br />
replace the plastic, coloured<br />
discs, which were thrown out<br />
and replaced every year.<br />
“There are more than 40,000<br />
dogs registered in Christchurch<br />
so the new metal tags are<br />
the sustainable, future-proofed<br />
option with at least 40,000<br />
plastic tags not going into the<br />
red bin every year,” animal<br />
services manager Lionel<br />
Bridger said.<br />
“At the moment people<br />
have to pay their registration<br />
and then wait for their new<br />
tags to arrive in the mail<br />
so having lifelong tags will<br />
speed up the registration<br />
process.”<br />
The new system will mean<br />
the only thing dog owners<br />
need to do will be to pay their<br />
registration each year.<br />
The new dog tags will also<br />
have a QR code on them,<br />
generated by a company<br />
called Tag King. For $20,<br />
owners can use the QR code<br />
to store their contact information.<br />
Then if their dog<br />
ONE-OFF: The new metal tags will last a lifetime,<br />
replacing the plastic discs that were updated<br />
every year.<br />
PHOTO: NEWSLINE<br />
goes missing, anyone who<br />
finds the dog will be able to<br />
scan the QR code and find<br />
out who the owners are so<br />
they can be reunited.<br />
“We want to stress, this<br />
is an optional service and<br />
you have to opt into it, and<br />
is completely separate from<br />
your registration fees with<br />
us,” Bridger said.<br />
Reminder letters for this<br />
year’s dog registration are<br />
being sent out now.<br />
“So it’s a timely reminder<br />
that the period to pay your<br />
annual dog registration fees<br />
is coming up,” he said.<br />
If you have responsible<br />
dog owner status, you<br />
have until <strong>June</strong> 30 to pay<br />
at the discounted rate. If<br />
you’re paying the standard<br />
registration fee you have until<br />
July 31.<br />
You can pay online, over the<br />
phone using a credit card by<br />
calling 941 8999, or in person<br />
at one of the service centres.<br />
Dog registration fees pay<br />
for a wide range of dog<br />
control services, including<br />
dog bite prevention<br />
programmes, complaints<br />
investigation and resolution,<br />
care and welfare of<br />
impounded dogs, and free<br />
dog microchipping.<br />

Energy<br />
project to<br />
help 200<br />
households<br />
A PROJECT to help low and fixed<br />
income households reduce their<br />
energy bills will benefit from a<br />
$49,763 sustainability fund grant.<br />
The fund was set up by the city<br />
council to assist with community<br />
action on climate change.<br />
A proposal from Christchurch<br />
business Ecobulb will see the<br />
Home Energy Project pilot rolled<br />
out to help 200 low and fixed<br />
income households.<br />
The company will install LED<br />
bulbs and water-efficient shower<br />
heads, provide energy saving<br />
tips and support householders to<br />
select the best energy provider.<br />
The scheme aims to save almost<br />
700 tonnes of greenhouse gas<br />
emissions over 10 years through<br />
energy savings.<br />
The pilot project will also be<br />
used to gather information to<br />
support a funding application<br />
to the $17m energy hardship<br />
programme offered by the Ministry<br />
of Business, Innovation and<br />
Employment.<br />
“If Ecobulb is able to expand<br />
the programme it will potentially<br />
benefit about 20,000 Christchurch<br />
households,” said sustainability<br />
and community resilience<br />
committee chair, councillor<br />
Sara Templeton.<br />

Ngā mihi nui, welcome to <strong>June</strong> and<br />
welcome to my world. At a recent<br />
business planning session with<br />
our mentor Gilbert Enoka, this<br />
question was posed: “in this year<br />
of all years what have you learnt<br />
about yourself ?” And in the quieter<br />
moments I’ve had the chance to<br />
ponder just that.<br />
But before sharing those insights,<br />
I’d like to look at the real estate<br />
world collectively – and at some<br />
of the learnings readily available.<br />
It’s awards time, the financial year<br />
has been completed and, yes, you<br />
guessed it, it’s time to publish and<br />
share achievements. Open any<br />
publication or look to your social<br />
media and you’ll find numerous<br />
‘Top 20’ groups of consultants and<br />
proclamations of greatness being<br />
made across the city.<br />
It’s done in an attempt to win the<br />
hard-earnt trust – and, therefore, the<br />
real estate needs – of potential clients<br />
and it happens with every significant<br />
brand in the industry, not just the one<br />
featuring above our own doorway. It’s<br />
confusing, I know, often off-putting<br />
and, what’s more, I contribute to it!<br />
So, I’m offering my apologies whilst<br />
providing some rationale.<br />
You see, our team of 91 real estate<br />
consultants spread across four<br />
offices (soon to be five) are the real<br />
deal. Harcourts gold has the Top<br />
Residential Office in New Zealand<br />
and it’s an accolade that evokes<br />
a definite sense of pride knowing<br />
I’ve been able to contribute to that<br />
success. Our award-winning Papanui<br />
office is located in the area where my<br />
father and his family of seven grew up<br />
and where my husband and I went to<br />
high school. You see, I’ve learnt that<br />
I’m nostalgic and parochial when it<br />
comes to my local community – and<br />
those roots run deep.<br />
In addition to this office award, we<br />
have the Top Franchise award for<br />
income per sales consultant in New<br />
Zealand, Top Office for auctions,<br />
revenue and performance, plus three<br />
consultants in the New Zealand Top<br />
20 including Number One (out of<br />
2,318) – my great friend and business<br />

partner, Cameron Bailey.<br />
I’m providing these details not to<br />
come across as a tiresome bore<br />
but to demonstrate a number of<br />
determinants that indicate this team<br />
really is different. And it’s this I’ve<br />
learnt: no amount of success can<br />
happen without hard work. In this<br />
industry that can mean long hours,<br />
deep rejection, constant setbacks and<br />
market challenges. I’ve also learnt<br />
that this is offset by a supportive<br />
team that collaborates, encourages<br />
resilience and celebrates when the<br />
job is done.<br />
You then go forward, year after year,<br />
and in my own case, decade after<br />
decade. Anyone can be motivated<br />
for a minute, but it takes grit to be<br />
motivated for a lifetime – and I guess<br />
that’s my biggest learning of all.<br />

Public Notice<br />
Notice for consultation on a proposed Enrolment Scheme<br />
amendment for Cotswold School<br />
The Ministry of Education has identified that Cotswold School requires an<br />
amendment to their enrolment scheme. This is to remove a small section from the<br />
home zone area to clarify local education pathways and to clarify the home zone<br />
boundary so that the home zone map and written description more accurately<br />
represent which addresses are in-zone.<br />
After engagement with the Board, we have developed a proposed enrolment scheme<br />
amendment for Cotswold School under the Education and Training Act 2020.<br />
As part of this process, we are consulting with the school’s community and with<br />
people living in the area for which the school is a reasonably convenient school.<br />
Under this scheme, students will be able to enrol if they live within the proposed<br />
home zone. The enrolment of out-of-zone students is governed by the provisions of<br />
the Education and Training Act 2020.<br />
A copy of the proposed enrolment scheme is available at<br />
https://consultation.education.govt.nz/education/cotswold-school-enrolment-schemeamendment<br />
If you have any feedback about the proposed enrolment scheme, please visit the<br />
website, read the information and complete the survey before 08 July <strong>2022</strong>.<br />
