Somali women show<br />

their print-making<br />

SHOCKED, SURREAL and<br />

excited.<br />

Those are the words of firsttime<br />

artist Samira Ahmed as<br />

she watched her print being<br />

hung up on show in Tūranga.<br />

Ahmed is one of eight<br />

Somali women aged between<br />

20 and 70 whose art is now on<br />

display in the Gurigeena: Our<br />

Home exhibition, held by the<br />

Canterbury Somali Association<br />

on the library’s ground floor.<br />

“I don’t think any of us know<br />

how good our artwork is. At<br />

the time I didn’t think it was a<br />

big deal but seeing it up there is<br />

impressive,” Ahmed said.<br />

The exhibition is one of the<br />

ways the association is giving a<br />

voice to the Somali community<br />

in Christchurch, particularly in<br />

the aftermath of the March 15,<br />

2019 terror attacks.<br />

Ahmed’s work is “pretty<br />

much” a self-portrait.<br />

“She’s deep in thought and<br />

whatever she’s thinking about,<br />

it’s very deep. Maybe world<br />

peace or something like that,”<br />

she said.<br />

Ahmed said the class was<br />

so great for the group’s wellbeing<br />

and gave her a little “me<br />

time”.<br />

The group of women attended<br />

eight two-hour classes hosted<br />

by artist and art teacher Janet<br />

Molineaux.<br />

Retail centre<br />

expansion<br />

gets green<br />

light – with<br />

restrictions<br />

THE CITY council has approved<br />

a private plan change that will<br />

allow the Homebase retail centre<br />

on Marshland Rd to expand,<br />

but there will be limitations on<br />

development.<br />

The city council adopted<br />

recommendations made by the<br />

independent hearings panel that<br />

considered the application by<br />

Reefville Properties Ltd to extend<br />

the commercial zone to the north<br />

of Homebase, and the public submissions<br />

received on it.<br />

The panel recommended the<br />

rezoning of residential land to<br />

commercial should be allowed,<br />

with certain restrictions to be included<br />

in the District Plan to limit<br />

the impact of development. It<br />

considered the impact of the retail<br />

centre’s growth on things such as<br />

a safe road network, the nearby<br />

The Palms shopping centre and<br />

the amenity of neighbouring<br />

residential areas.<br />

Restrictions include limiting,<br />

until October 2031, the type of<br />

retail activities allowed at the<br />

centre. The activities include<br />

clothing, footwear or department<br />

stores and supermarkets as part of<br />

the expansion until that date.<br />

Development needs to provide<br />

safe and convenient pedestrian<br />

and cycling connectivity between<br />

the adjoining residential areas<br />

to the west and Marshland Rd.<br />

Recommendations were also<br />

made about the scale and staging<br />

of development.

from the picnic areas around,”<br />

Ha l 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 />

focused on monitoring schools,<br />

either.<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 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 />

Old quarry building gets new piano<br />

• By Emily Moorhouse<br />

AN OLD stone house has<br />

been blessed with the sound<br />

of music with the arrival of a<br />

new piano.<br />

The Singlemen’s Quarters<br />

at Halswell Quarry has<br />

been gifted a working piano<br />

thanks to an anonymous<br />

donor.<br />

The previous piano that sat<br />

in the Singlemen’s Quarters<br />

didn’t make sound when the<br />

keys were pressed, leaving<br />

locals who visited frequently<br />

disappointed with the lack of<br />

music.<br />

Waipuna Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton<br />

Community<br />

Board member Debbie Mora<br />

was advocating to have a<br />

working piano put in at the<br />

Singlemen’s Quarters for<br />

“many years.”<br />

“I understand the enjoyment<br />

people get from playing<br />

and listening to a piano,” she<br />

said.<br />

Mora made a post on<br />

Facebook to see if anyone<br />

was interested in donating a<br />

piano to the quarry and had a<br />

person that wanted to remain<br />

anonymous offer theirs.<br />

The Singlemen’s Quarters<br />

was built around 1922 and<br />

closed after the February 22,<br />

2011, earthquake, opening to<br />

the public again in 2017 after<br />

undergoing repair work.<br />

Mora said she bumped<br />

into Ryan Dunn and his<br />

two-year-old son Auden who<br />

had visited the Singlemen’s<br />

Quarters the previous day<br />

and attempted to play the old<br />

piano.<br />

“We quickly introduced<br />

Auden to the replacement<br />

piano which he was really<br />

enthralled with and enjoyed.<br />

It was fantastic to see immediate<br />

favour with the replacement<br />

piano,” Mora said.<br />

Quarry Cafe barista Paul<br />

Wadsworth said many people<br />

expressed disappointment<br />

when attempting to play the<br />

old piano that didn’t work.<br />

The new piano would add<br />

an ambience to the area<br />

which will now be a buzz<br />

with the community, he said.<br />

Mora said she’d like to<br />

see the room being used for<br />

morning and afternoon teas<br />

with people using the piano<br />

to entertain others with a<br />

singalong.<br />

Any piano music that<br />

anyone wishes to donate can<br />

be placed in the piano stall.<br />

PLAY: Ryan Dunn and his two-yearold<br />

son Auden were happy to see the<br />

new working piano installed at the<br />

Singlemen’s Quarters, Halswell Quarry.<br />

• From page 1<br />

“A lot of them are from quite<br />

nomadic backgrounds and<br />

they’d never done any art.<br />

They’re elderly women or young<br />

mothers and have not been able<br />

to escape their domesticity.<br />

This was for their well-being,”<br />

Molineaux said.<br />

For the women it was a time to<br />

get together, listen to traditional<br />

music in the background, talk,<br />

and work on their art.<br />

They were presented with<br />

different Somali prints and<br />

each woman chose an image<br />

they connected with. Once<br />

they’d each chosen their images,<br />

Molineaux took them through<br />

the process of print-making.<br />

Said Molineaux: “A lot of<br />

them don’t speak English so I<br />

was teaching by demonstration.<br />

To begin with my ladies were<br />

really shy but towards the middle<br />

of the term they’d gotten used<br />

to me and there was a strong<br />

connection.<br />

“Even now they’re finished,<br />

they don’t realise what they’ve<br />

created because they’ve never<br />

done it before. It’s not a big<br />

collection, eight prints, but what<br />

it does for this group of women<br />

is huge.”<br />

Once they were finished,<br />

Molineaux said she knew they<br />

needed to be made public and<br />

approached Christchurch City<br />

Libraries, which leapt at the<br />

chance to host the exhibition.<br />

“It’s so fabulous to see the<br />

beautiful works of art showcased<br />

for the public. We urge anyone<br />

and everyone to come and check<br />

them out,” city council acting<br />

head of libraries and information<br />

Elaine Sides said.<br />

Be it emotional or analytical,<br />

much is made of the reasons<br />

people transact real estate.<br />

When purchasing or deciding to purchase<br />

there is often robust debate about the rationale<br />

for someone’s decisions. The parties involved<br />

can be vendors, buyers, real estate consultants,<br />

lawyers, valuers, building inspectors and can<br />

now include digital valuation systems.<br />

Everyone wants to play a part, as well as have<br />

a say, and it’s a crowded and often confusing<br />

space.<br />

If it’s an investment property, there’s often a<br />

predetermined strategy based on the financial<br />

benefits or otherwise of the purchase, and<br />

this can be seen in a ‘dollars and cents’, ‘return<br />

versus costs’ framework.<br />

People usually know the rules.<br />

If they spend too much on the purchase or<br />

during renovation and they don’t sell for a<br />

certain amount, then the end result will often<br />

be disappointment. You see this particular<br />

scenario played out most weeks, however<br />

the market we have enjoyed over the past 18<br />

months saw the reverse of this: astronomical<br />

figures achieved regardless of the initial cost of<br />

the property and subsequent investment.<br />

But not everything is analytical. In fact, some<br />

of the biggest motivations for people to buy<br />

or sell are deeply emotional and might make<br />

sense only to them.<br />

Examples I’ve noted over the years have<br />

included the purchase of neighboring<br />

properties.<br />

The disparaging ‘nosey neighbor’ label gets<br />

bandied about more than I care for, but I’ve<br />

seen significant prices paid by neighbors<br />

who wanted to protect boundaries or views,<br />

or wanted other family members to live close<br />

by. They believed in the value of the location<br />

and in some cases had waited patiently for<br />

the opportunity. Owners that chose to sell at<br />

auction often achieved wonderful premiums<br />

because of this.<br />

Another emotional factor I’ve witnessed is the<br />

acrimonious split, where you see two common<br />

scenarios: the ‘I don’t care because I’m off to a<br />

better life’ and the ‘I’ll fight you every step of<br />

the way because I feel betrayed and belittled’.<br />

The skill required to navigate these situations<br />

with care and professionalism isn’t the domain<br />

of everyone and I’d always suggest doing<br />

significant due diligence to find a professional<br />

who has the skill to look after all parties whilst<br />

delivering the best result, because there may<br />

be an emotional minefield ahead.<br />

And before you think it can’t be done, it can;<br />

I’ve seen it.<br />

But for me, perhaps the most emotional of<br />

all sales transactions are the ones involving<br />

couples who – having lived long and<br />

wonderful lives together – must sell to move<br />

into supportive care.<br />

You walk through properties full of nostalgic<br />

memories, photos, books, furniture,<br />

mementoes and ‘stuff’. The stuff of life and you<br />

realize on their behalf how hard it is.<br />

That’s when emotion really comes to the fore.<br />

In one example that comes to mind, I had the<br />

enormous privilege of meeting a couple that<br />

had lived a full and valued life, but it was time<br />

to move.<br />

They worry, have they left it too late? And (this<br />

is common) I worry that we have a deadline<br />

hanging over us requiring a sale by a certain<br />

date so they can move to the residential<br />

village.<br />

Their friends worry about auctioning, which<br />

we believed was the best process due to the<br />

deadlines just mentioned – and the nature of<br />

their property – and their family worry about<br />

all the things families lose sleep over when<br />

they have elderly parents.<br />

Economics are important, of course, but the<br />

emotional factors in all of this are much more<br />

important.<br />

So why share this?<br />

It could be that I want our elderly clients to<br />

move safely and with dignity to their new<br />

home.<br />

It could be because my own parents are now<br />

at that age and although they tell me in no<br />

uncertain terms that they are never moving, I<br />

worry every winter.<br />

Or it could be that no matter what any of us<br />

think, people will make their own decisions. It<br />

might be purely financially driven or it might<br />

be deeply emotional. It’s important to find<br />

out which it is before you wade in. And for<br />

real estate professionals working in this space,<br />

know what’s best, do that and more, and<br />

remember that life is a mixture of facts and<br />

feelings.<br />

Shooting goals to raise money for cancer<br />

• By Emily Moorhouse<br />

TWO YOUNG netballers shot<br />

more than 2500 goals between<br />

them to raise money for the Cancer<br />

Society.<br />

Izzy Davies and Amelia Osborn,<br />

both 11, participated in Cancer Society’s<br />

Shoot for the Moon challenge,<br />

raising money through shooting<br />

goals for a chosen sport.<br />

The challenge has a set target of<br />

384 goals as the moon is 384,000km<br />

away from the earth, however, the<br />

girls have taken it upon themselves to<br />

go above and beyond.<br />

Amelia shot 544 of her 500 goals<br />

and raised $443 of her $350 target<br />

while Izzy shot exactly 2000 of her<br />

2000 target and raised $336, exceeding<br />

her $250 goal.<br />

The funds raised have gone towards<br />

supporting people with cancer<br />

across the Canterbury-West Coast<br />

region as well as funding cancer<br />

research and programmes to help<br />

reduce cancer risk.<br />

The Marshland School pupils play<br />

netball for the same team at St Francis<br />

of Assisi Netball Club, St Albans,<br />

with Amelia on goal attack and Izzy<br />

on goal shoot.<br />

Amelia’s mum Bex Osborn teaches<br />

the girls at Marshland School<br />

and coaches their netball team.<br />

She saw the challenge on Facebook<br />

and asked the girls if they would be<br />

interested.<br />

“They were really keen. They go out<br />

and practise most days, they love it,”<br />

Osborn said.<br />

“They wanted to push themselves<br />

a little bit further really, Amelia on<br />

CHALLENGE: Izzy Davies (left) and Amelia Osborn participated in<br />

Cancer Society’s Shoot for the Moon challenge and shot more than<br />

2500 goals between them. ​<br />

the very first day shot 126 goals and<br />

said well this is going to be done and<br />

dusted pretty quick.”<br />

The girls, who have known each<br />

other since they were six weeks old,<br />

shot their goals during netball games<br />

and after school using each other’s<br />

hoops at home.<br />

Both girls wanted to give back to<br />

the charity as they know people who<br />

have had cancer and said it’s good to<br />

help others.<br />

Although, they admitted it was<br />

hard work fitting in shooting<br />

their goals with Amelia sometimes<br />

having to stay at school late shooting<br />

goals.<br />

Osborn said she was extremely<br />

proud of both Amelia and Izzy for<br />

their hard work and determination<br />

to complete the challenge.<br />

“It’s nice to have children that<br />

realise the importance of giving back<br />

and that are empathetic to other<br />

people and other people’s needs,” she<br />

said.<br />

Pupils use Minecraft to redesign red zone<br />

CHISNALLWOOD Intermediate<br />

School pupils are using a popular<br />

computer game to redesign the<br />

red zone.<br />

With the school’s focus of<br />

community this term, the year<br />

6-9 pupils are building their very<br />

own community through the<br />

Minecraft: Education Edition<br />

programme.<br />

Being located less than 1km<br />

from the red zone, the teachers<br />

decided to create a project for<br />

pupils that would not only give<br />

back to the community but teach<br />

them how to act as one.<br />

The pupils built an exact<br />

replica of the red zone,<br />

photographing the red zone<br />

and then overlaying it into the<br />

Minecraft world using coding<br />

with help from M:EE global<br />

mentor Nathan Scott from<br />

Cyclone.<br />

Teacher Anna Duncan said<br />

implementing Minecraft has<br />

positively ignited the school year<br />

and pupils are engaged when<br />

using it.<br />

“Kids that never really<br />

show any enthusiasm towards<br />

learning and often disengage are<br />

now getting involved. They’re<br />

asking really great questions<br />

about the topics we’re teaching<br />

through Minecraft and their<br />

understanding has noticeably<br />

improved.”<br />

Thirty-one pupils worked<br />

together to establish the best<br />

plot of land for their project,<br />

including infrastructure and<br />

environmental aspects.<br />

One sports-loving team argued<br />

the land needed to be close to a<br />

river so they could offer rowing<br />

at their sports centre.<br />

Duncan said it’s encouraged<br />

the pupils to collaborate more as<br />

they are all working in the same<br />

world and asking each other<br />

questions.<br />

Deputy principal Iva Hamilton<br />

agreed and said “it’s not a game.<br />

It’s a tool for education. There is<br />

a need for communication with<br />

digital tools that I didn’t<br />

expect, and the kids learnt<br />

that too.”<br />

“I’d say the class was 90 per<br />

cent happy with the outcome<br />

of land divisions. They came to<br />

understand the need to adapt,<br />

negotiate and make do for the<br />

greater good of the community,”<br />

said teacher Tui Waters.<br />

Next on the agenda for the<br />

school is building animal<br />

kingdoms to expand students’<br />

thinking around habitats and<br />

wildlife survival.<br />

COLLABORATION:<br />

Pupils had to<br />

work together<br />

and compromise<br />

on a final plot for<br />

the land as well<br />

as buildings that<br />

would feature.<br />

Tart up your meals with pumpkin and lemon<br />

Tarts are good. Tarts<br />

with roast pumpkin<br />

and garlic are even<br />

better. Roasting the<br />

pumpkin brings out the<br />

sweetness and flavour<br />

in this recipe, then the<br />

rest is easy.<br />

Roast pumpkin and garlic<br />

tart<br />

Serves 6-8<br />

Ingredients<br />

2 cups flour<br />

½ tsp salt<br />

80g butter, cubed<br />

1 egg<br />

1 Tbsp cold water<br />

½ tsp paprika<br />

2 Tbsp olive oil<br />

100g feta, crumbled<br />

2 Tbsp thyme leaves<br />

2 eggs, lightly beaten<br />

To make the pastry, place<br />

the flour, salt and butter in a<br />

food processor, blitzing until it<br />

resembles fine bread crumbs.<br />

Add the egg and water and blitz<br />

to form the dough. Roll on a<br />

lightly floured bench until 5mm<br />

thick. Line a 23cm quiche or pie<br />

tin. Bake blind for 15 minutes.<br />

Remove from the oven.<br />

Into the tart tin place the<br />

pumpkin, feta and thyme leaves.<br />

Combine the eggs and cream.<br />

Season, then pour over the pumpkin.<br />

Sprinkle over the parmesan.<br />

Bake for 40 minutes or until set in<br />

RD Petroleum<br />

this winter<br />

RD Petroleum (RDP) is a familiar sight<br />

for farm and rural residents around the<br />

Canterbury region, however now days urban<br />

residents also enjoy the same excellent<br />

customer service for which RDP is known for<br />

in rural communities, through their home<br />

heating diesel.<br />

RDP began its home heating diesel delivery<br />

service to the lower South Island’s main urban<br />

centres of Christchurch, Timaru, Dunedin<br />

and Invercargill a number of years ago.<br />

Customer demand has continued to increase<br />

year upon year, and RDP has responded<br />

with specialised improvements to its delivery<br />

equipment.<br />

The trucks that deliver RDP’s home heating<br />

diesel in each urban centre are drawn from<br />

the company’s extensive vehicle fleet. This<br />

Thursday <strong>July</strong> 7 <strong>2022</strong><br />

means they have the latest communication<br />

and GPS tracking technology on board, so<br />

the operations team always know where they<br />

are and how far away they are from their next<br />

delivery stop.<br />

RDP’s home heating diesel trucks come<br />

equipped with a specially-designed hose,<br />

through which the diesel is pumped from<br />

the truck into house tanks. The length of<br />

the hose allows the trucks to access tanks<br />

without having to enter the property, avoiding<br />

damaging the driveway. RDP is the place to<br />

go if you require diesel conveniently delivered<br />

to your home and as a loyal RDP customer<br />

you’re offered discounted pricing and can<br />

become eligible for value-added benefits.<br />

HOME & HEATING<br />

Ground moisture barrier<br />

under low sub-floor<br />

Now with the colder and wetter weather on<br />

its way, home owners are focusing on ways<br />

to make their homes comfortable, warm<br />

and healthy for their families throughout<br />

winter. Rising damp is an issue that affects<br />

many of our older properties which suffer<br />

from poor, or no, ground moisture barrier.<br />

In Canterbury especially, post-quake, many<br />

people have relocated to homes that suffer<br />

from rising damp which can be associated<br />

with health problems. Independent tests have<br />

shown that up to 40 litres of water can rise<br />

from the ground and enter a house every day,<br />

leading to mildew, mould, condensation and<br />

musty smells. Moulds can produce various<br />

allergic reactions and the frail, elderly and<br />

very young are especially vulnerable.<br />

Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd is a<br />

locally owned and operated firm. The team<br />

understands the problems caused by rising<br />

damp and are there to help. They will come<br />

to your damp home and pump a lightweight,<br />

flowable foam concrete under your timber<br />

floored home.<br />

While insulation is important, it has been<br />

recognised that it is dampness that is the real<br />

villain in the house. The new Healthy Homes<br />

Standards introduced by the government<br />

effective from the 1st <strong>July</strong> 2019 now has<br />

a requirement to install ground moisture<br />

barriers, a key element in the armory to fight<br />

moisture in the home.<br />

Dr Larry Bellamy BE (hons) PhD in a<br />

report dated 1988: Foam Concrete Under<br />

Timber Floors: An Energy Analysis assessed<br />

the effects of placing Foam Concrete over<br />

damp soil and had this to say: Condensation<br />

on the underside of a timber floor can occur<br />

where the floor is suspended over damp<br />

ground and the inside air temperature falls<br />

close to the crawl space air temperature.<br />

Much energy is required to vaporize moisture<br />

that penetrates the structure. By avoiding<br />

underfloor condensation, foam concrete can<br />

reduce floor heat losses by up to 90%.<br />

• Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd can in most<br />

cases, install a Ground Moisture Barrier<br />

under the suspended wooden floor of your<br />

home, even when there is no crawl space.<br />

The facts about home ventilation<br />

Balanced Pressure<br />

vs Positive Pressure<br />

Under the New Zealand Building Code,<br />

all buildings, including residential, need to<br />

be suitably ventilated, either with opening<br />

windows or forced ventilation. Clause G4.1<br />

states: “The objective of this provision<br />

is to safeguard people from illness or<br />

loss of amenity due to lack of fresh air.”<br />

There are many benefits to forced, or<br />

mechanical, ventilation over opening<br />

windows, including warmth, security,<br />

reduction of outside noises and reduction<br />

of condensation.<br />

Traditional domestic ventilation systems<br />

are ‘positive pressure’. They bring air in<br />

from outside via the roof space and force<br />

the stale air out through gaps around<br />

windows and doors.<br />

The incoming air<br />

from these systems<br />

has to be heated or<br />

cooled to keep the<br />

house warm in winter<br />

or cool in summer.<br />

The Smooth-Air<br />

HEX390 is a ‘balanced<br />

pressure’ system. It<br />

extracts air from the<br />

house and at the same<br />

time brings in fresh<br />

air. These two streams<br />

of air pass through a<br />

heat exchanger, which<br />

warms incoming air<br />

in winter and cools in<br />

summer if air conditioning is being used.<br />

This means that up to 80% of the energy<br />

which would be wasted using a traditional<br />

positive pressure system is recovered,<br />

resulting in significant energy savings and<br />

therefore lower heating or cooling costs.<br />

Until recently, balanced pressure<br />

ventilation systems have been considerably<br />

more expensive than traditional positive<br />

pressure systems. However, with Smooth-<br />

Air’s unique manufacturing capabilities, a<br />

HEX390 balanced pressure system can be<br />

installed for a similar price as a traditional<br />

positive pressure system.<br />
