Residential project earns<br />

major landscaping award<br />

A RESIDENTIAL project on<br />

Rugby St has achieved great<br />

success in the <strong>2022</strong> Landscapes<br />

of Distinction Awards over the<br />

weekend.<br />

Nationally, 132 projects were<br />

entered into the awards held by<br />

Registered Master Landscapes.<br />

The awards were a celebration<br />

of the quality trade, craftsmanship<br />

and expertise of the best<br />

landscapers in New Zealand.<br />

Winning projects represent<br />

the top echelon of landscaping<br />

design and construction in the<br />

country.<br />

Behind the Rugby St design<br />

was landscaping business Onlandscapes.<br />

Their work won the <strong>2022</strong> people’s<br />

choice award.<br />

More than 5000 people voted<br />

for the award, which was open to<br />

the public for voting.<br />

The Rugby St project was<br />

designed for empty nesters and<br />

created with order, privacy and<br />

serenity at the top of the wish<br />

list.<br />

“They wanted a full makeover,<br />

leaving only the existing Maple<br />

tree and perimeter hedging,”<br />

Ollie Newman, of Onlandscapes,<br />

said.<br />

“It was their preference for it to<br />

be simply and structured so they<br />

could enjoy the outlook both<br />

during the day and night. It was<br />

a privilege to construct this project,<br />

and an honour to work with<br />

such outstanding clients.”<br />

Chief executive of Registered<br />

OUTSTANDING: Onlandscapes work on this residential property on Rugby St won the people’s choice award at the <strong>2022</strong><br />

Landscapes of Distinction Awards over the weekend. ​<br />

Master Landscapes, Janine Scott,<br />

congratulated all the award winners<br />

from across New Zealand<br />

and acknowledged the 50 per<br />

cent increase in the number of<br />

entrants this year.<br />

“This represents a major step<br />

forward,” she said.<br />

“The landscape industry<br />

is going from strength to<br />

strength, with so much young<br />

talent entering the industry and<br />

some extraordinary projects<br />

being undertaken by<br />

businesses throughout New<br />

Zealand.”<br />

Teen boxer earns accolades after win<br />

• By Chris Barclay<br />

PROMISING teenage boxer<br />

Bobby Brown outfought a<br />

two-time national champion<br />

to claim his weight division at<br />

the Australian Golden Gloves<br />

in Brisbane and be crowned<br />

the best male fighter in his age<br />

group.<br />

The 14-year-old Christchurch<br />

Boys’ High School student<br />

returned home last week with<br />

the boys cadet under 57kg open<br />

grade gold medal after ending<br />

Queenslander Chaise Courtney’s<br />

15-bout unbeaten run via split<br />

decision.<br />

“He had two really, really<br />

close rounds (in the Brisbane<br />

final) and then he pulled it<br />

together and he took the last<br />

round clean,” said coach Holly<br />

Sullivan.<br />

Brown, who is targeting the<br />

2026 Summer Youth Olympics<br />

in Dakar, Senegal, swayed the<br />

judges with his superior speed,<br />

fitness and technique.<br />

Sullivan was also impressed<br />

as a member of the Woolston<br />

Boxing Club’s original youth<br />

intake in 2<strong>01</strong>6 continues to<br />

develop.<br />

“He started fighting at 32kg<br />

or something silly,” she said,<br />

expanding on the long-term<br />

goal.<br />

“The Youth Olympics is the<br />

pathway and the goal we’re<br />

trying to put him towards. We<br />

want to keep pushing at New<br />

Zealand Boxing saying: ‘This kid<br />

is keen’.”<br />

Brown has a 13-win 7-loss<br />

record and graduates from cadet<br />

to junior class next year.<br />

He then spends two years as a<br />

junior before fighting as a youth.<br />

“His losses have all been<br />

against juniors or heavier<br />

opponents generally, he’s been<br />

stepping up a lot,” Sullivan said.<br />

Brown is now preparing to<br />

Young people awarded for their commitment<br />

A GROUP of young people have<br />

been acknowledged for their<br />

contributions to the community.<br />

Mayor Lianne Dalziel<br />

presented The Duke of<br />

Edinburgh’s Hillary Award –<br />

bronze, silver and gold – to 70<br />

young people in August.<br />

Some of the rangatahi will<br />

receive their gold award from the<br />

Governor General in Wellington<br />

later this year.<br />

The Duke of Edinburgh’s<br />

Hillary Award is a voluntary<br />

programme of personal,<br />

adventurous and cultural<br />

activities with bronze, silver and<br />

gold categories.<br />

Participants have to complete<br />

four sections – voluntary service,<br />

physical recreation, skills and<br />

adventurous journey – in each<br />

level.<br />

At the gold level, participants<br />

are required to complete a<br />

residential project.<br />

The programme was<br />

designed to challenge young<br />

people to leave their comfort<br />

zones and push their personal<br />

development.<br />

On top of volunteering work<br />

with the Salvation Army, Local<br />

Hospice and St Vincent De-Paul<br />

centres, these young people<br />

supported refugees and migrant<br />

children.<br />

Mentor and award leader<br />

Chris Allan, who delivered the<br />

programme through his Joshua<br />

Foundation organisation, said<br />

the students were also involved<br />

with sport teams and individual<br />

sports.<br />

“Some of these young people<br />

have achieved regional and<br />

national honours in their<br />

chosen physical recreation,” he<br />

said.<br />

“They have engaged in an<br />

arduous 30km tramp in the<br />

Oxford area at a bronze level,<br />

a 50km tramp at a silver level<br />

around the Porters Pass and<br />

Lake Lyndon area, and a fourday<br />

tramp in Arthur’s Pass<br />

National Park.”<br />

VOLUNTEERING: St Bede’s College (above), Middleton<br />

Grange (below left) and Catholic Cathedral College<br />

were among those schools participating in The Duke of<br />

Edinburgh’s Hillary Awards. ​<br />

Water and environment key<br />

issues for new candidate<br />

Avonhead resident Dr Laly Samuel will be<br />

standing as an independent in the upcoming<br />

local body elections, vying for a seat on the<br />

Christchurch City Council for the Waimairi ward<br />

and one of two seats on the Community Board for<br />

the Waimairi/Fendalton/Harewood Ward .<br />

An academic and scientist, Dr Samuel has<br />

gained extensive international experience and<br />

recognition, with awards including the Garshom<br />

International Award she received in Norway in<br />

2<strong>01</strong>9. She was also named as one of the finalists<br />

in the Women of Influence Award – International<br />

category New Zealand in 2<strong>01</strong>5.<br />

Originally from India, Dr Samuel moved to<br />

New Zealand with her husband and two children<br />

in 2002. Prior to that they lived in Japan for 11<br />

years, where Dr Samuel worked as a scientist and<br />

undertook post-doctoral study.<br />

After three years in Wellington, during which<br />

Dr Samuel was a team leader at the Measurements<br />

Standards Laboratory of New Zealand (MSL)<br />

under the Crown Research Institute, Industrial<br />

Research Ltd , she moved to Christchurch where<br />

she continued her job with MSL under Callaghan<br />

Innovation, a role she held until 2<strong>01</strong>6, before<br />

deciding to take a break from her professional life.<br />

Always part of her busy schedule, community<br />

work now has an even stronger focus for Dr<br />

Samuel. This involves assisting Indian immigrants<br />

to settle into New Zealand life. She is active in her<br />

local church, St Christopher’s, and along with her<br />

husband helps the Kerala community group with<br />

personal and cultural matters.<br />

She is also a member of the Christchurch<br />

Multicultural Council and the Christchurch<br />

International Group.<br />

With her scientific and management<br />

background, her experience with ethnic<br />

communities, as well as her commitment to<br />

helping the community, Dr Samuel believes that<br />

she will be a competent candidate.<br />

If successful, her main focus will be on<br />

removing chlorination from the city’s water,<br />

with reducing the city’s carbon footprint also an<br />

important issue for her. She supports the new<br />

stadium but was disappointed that solar panels<br />

were not included in the design.<br />

“I am also against the 1.4 per cent annual rate<br />

increase that Christchurch people will have to pay<br />

to fund the stadium’s construction. I believe the<br />

government should contribute more.”<br />

The situation Bromley residents are dealing<br />

with also concerns Dr Samuel.<br />

“The odour and pollution being created is<br />

affecting not just Bromley, but many parts of the<br />

city, and the toxic particles can cause health issues.<br />

“With my international scientific and<br />

management experience, I believe I could<br />

contribute a lot to council committees dealing<br />

with issues like these, and many others.”<br />

Her campaign strategy will include meeting<br />

with people as she believes it is important to<br />

interact with people and discuss their issues.<br />

“I already know a significant number of people<br />

in the Waimairi Ward, and I look forward to<br />

meeting many more, and going on to represent<br />

them after the election.”

Netball and hockey triumphs at regionals<br />

ST MARGARET’S College<br />

has won two premier regional<br />

sporting titles in netball and<br />

hockey. The senior A netball<br />

team thwarted St Andrew’s<br />

College to claim the Supernet<br />

Competition for the eighth time<br />

in 12 years. The win follows<br />

SMC’s 1st XI hockey triumph<br />

at the recent Connetics SSP<br />

Championships after edging out<br />

Christchurch Girls’ High School<br />

in the final. Executive Principal<br />

Diana Patchett attributes SMC’s<br />

success to the strength of its<br />

coaching and the school’s culture<br />

of encouragement.<br />

Basketball side makes it three in a row<br />

CHRIST’S College’s top<br />

basketball team has won the<br />

Thomson Trophy for the third<br />

year in a row.<br />

Under the guidance of <strong>2022</strong><br />

New Zealand Coach of the Year<br />

Ben Sheat, they are the first side<br />

to achieve the three-win streak<br />

since 2006.<br />

“It has been our toughest title,<br />

battling through the challenges<br />

of sickness and injuries throughout<br />

the season,” Sheat said.<br />

“But the boys rose to the occasion<br />

in the final, winning 99–81<br />

against St Thomas of Canterbury<br />

College.<br />

“It was an awesome atmosphere<br />

for the game, with a crowd<br />

of about 1500 at Cowles Stadium.<br />

The support was outstanding,<br />

Front row: Ivy Brown, Ashlyn Koce, Cara<br />

and the boys delivered a true<br />

team effort, with everyone making<br />

a major contribution.<br />

“For our Year 13 players, it<br />

was a great way to end a massive<br />

season.”<br />

Sheat, who has steered the side<br />

for five years, also lauded the<br />

commitment and achievements<br />

of the whole squad.<br />

“Throughout the season, all the<br />

boys have shown great resilience,<br />

powering up for each game and<br />

never backing away from the<br />

challenge.”<br />

Standout guard Tom Harrison<br />

– scoring 36 points – was<br />

named most valuable player in<br />

the final, while Hunter Adam<br />

was in equally fine form, adding<br />

a further 27 points.<br />

Public Notice<br />

Notice for consultations on proposed Enrolment Scheme<br />

amendments for Belfast School and Burnside Primary School<br />

The Ministry of Education has identified that both Belfast School and Burnside Primary<br />

School require amendments to their enrolment schemes and has given the school<br />

boards notice of this.<br />

After engagement with the Boards of these schools, we have developed proposed<br />

enrolment scheme amendments under the Education and Training Act 2020.<br />

As part of this process, we are consulting with the school communities and with people<br />

living in the area.<br />

Under these schemes, students will be able to enrol if they live within the proposed<br />

home zones. The enrolment of out-of-zone students is governed by the provisions of the<br />

Education and Training Act 2020.<br />

A copy of the proposed enrolment scheme for Belfast School is available at<br />

https://consultation.education.govt.nz/education/belfast-school-enrolmentscheme-amendment/<br />

A copy of the proposed enrolment scheme for Burnside Primary School is available at<br />

https://consultation.education.govt.nz/education/burnside-primary-school-enrolmentscheme-amendment/<br />

If you have any feedback about the proposed enrolment schemes, please visit the<br />

relevant website, read the information and complete the survey before 30 <strong>September</strong><br />
