Appeal claims off-licence was<br />

granted under ‘apparent error’<br />

• By Natalie Pham<br />

A WOOLSTON resident<br />

has lodged an appeal against<br />

the decision to grant an offlicence<br />

to a liquor store in a<br />

“vulnerable” area.<br />

The appeal came after police,<br />

the medical officer of health, and<br />

a group of concerned residents<br />

failed to stop Super Liquor’s<br />

application on Ferry Rd.<br />

The store is located in a level<br />

9 deprived area, and there are<br />

now 13 off-licences within<br />

2km. The New Zealand Index<br />

of Deprivation ranges from one<br />

to 10 and measures the level of<br />

socioeconomic deprivation for<br />

areas.<br />

Last month, the Christchurch<br />

District Licensing Committee<br />

granted G & B Private Ltd an<br />

off-licence application to trade<br />

between 8am-11pm daily.<br />

One of the objectors, Paul<br />

McMahon, has submitted<br />

an appeal to the decision,<br />

requesting the Alcohol<br />

Regulatory and Licensing<br />

Authority either refuse the<br />

application or remit back to the<br />

committee for rehearing.<br />

The appeal claimed the<br />

DLC erred by deciding the<br />

new owners met the extended<br />

suitability.<br />

CONCERNED: Woolston resident Paul McMahon has filed an appeal against the decision<br />

to grant an off-licence to Super Liquor Woolston. ​<br />

Medical officer of health representative<br />

Paula Williams said<br />

the applicant’s understanding<br />

of harm in this vulnerable community<br />

was limited.<br />

The applicant, Sukhwant<br />

Singh Brar, only had experience<br />

in farm management and freight<br />

contracting, she highlighted.<br />

As noted in the hearing: “Williams’<br />

view is that in no way<br />

would such experience prepare<br />

the applicant for operating an<br />

off-licence in a vulnerable community.”<br />

She also raised a concern<br />

about the sale of high-alcohol<br />

single products, which Brar had<br />

chosen to sell at a low price.<br />

During the first visit to the<br />

store – which has been operating<br />

under a temporary licence for 14<br />

months – the licensing inspector<br />

Anneke Lavery found a bucket<br />

of single-sale beers on sale for $2<br />

each. The store also had an offer<br />

of three Baltika beers for $10<br />

fortnightly at the time.<br />

Lavery “felt the applicants<br />

would not be doing the same<br />

again.” She also referred to this<br />

as a “learning experience.”<br />

However, counsel for McMahon<br />

Dr Grant Hewison said<br />

there was no room for a learning<br />

experience in such an environment.<br />

When he asked if the offer<br />

of three Baltika cans for $10<br />

was socially responsible in a<br />

deprived area, Super Liquor<br />

franchise manager Paul Webster<br />

responded with “possibly not –<br />

no.”<br />

The appeal also claimed the<br />

DLC relied on an “apparent<br />

error” in its decision-making.<br />

As noted at the hearing,<br />

counsel for the liquor store Peter<br />

Egden said if the new licence<br />

would not be granted, the base<br />

licence held by the former owner<br />

would remain.<br />

Funding applications open for<br />

projects that address climate change<br />

THE CITY council’s<br />

sustainability fund is<br />

now open and accepting<br />

applications for projects<br />

that help address the<br />

council’s climate change<br />

objectives and targets.<br />

Anyone can apply<br />

for funding, including<br />

community organisations,<br />

schools, social enterprises<br />

and businesses.<br />

The fund’s key objectives<br />

are to meet the challenge<br />

of climate change through<br />

every means available,<br />

to help our community<br />

understand and prepare<br />

for the ongoing impacts<br />

of climate change, benefit<br />

from a just transition to an<br />

innovative, low-emission<br />

economy, and be guardians<br />

of our natural environment<br />

and taonga.<br />

“It’s awesome to see the<br />

range of ideas and projects<br />

that emerge every time<br />

we open the fund. We are<br />

lucky to have so many<br />

passionate, innovative,<br />

solution-focused groups<br />

delivering sustainability<br />

treasures from the past<br />

projects in Christchurch,”<br />

city council climate<br />

resilience lead Tony Moore<br />

said.<br />

• Applications for<br />

the sustainability fund<br />

My school visits are always rewarding and<br />

enjoyable. Lyttelton Primary School is a<br />

microcosm of Lyttelton itself; small but<br />

vibrant with a real focus on community and<br />

environment. My recent visit to the school<br />

was yet another opportunity to see passionate<br />

teachers, led by Principal Brendan Wright,<br />

encouraging and engaging with students and<br />

nurturing the values of the wider community.<br />

I was also fortunate enough to visit<br />

Whakaraupō Carving Centre while in<br />

Lyttelton, which is a charitable trust that seeks<br />

to uphold the mana of Te Ao Māori through<br />

art and ancient teachings. Kaiwhakairo<br />

(carvers) Damien Mackie and Eugene<br />

Whakatope were kind enough to show me<br />

through the workshop, which has produced<br />

many exquisite examples of carving on display<br />

throughout the peninsula, including the<br />

pou whenua at the Timeball station and on<br />

Ōtamahua/ Quail Island, and the waharoa at<br />

Hōhepa Canterbury.<br />

A few days later I was on the tops above<br />

Goughs <strong>Bay</strong> to discuss road repairs and<br />

communications connectivity with eastern<br />

bays residents. Hugh Wilson of Hinewai<br />

Reserve even made an impromptu appearance<br />

on his bike. Representing an electorate<br />

with both urban and rural populations is<br />

always interesting as the challenges these<br />

communities face vary so much, but it also<br />

The setting will be less windy and more<br />

formal at the Akaroa Ratepayers’ & Residents’<br />

Association upcoming public meeting, but<br />

the sentiment will be the same. I will be in<br />

attendance around the time this goes to print<br />

to listen to a range of residents on challenges<br />

such as climate change, tourism and civil<br />

defence. I’m sure it will be a productive<br />

meeting and together we will work toward<br />

tailored solutions to local issues.<br />

Lastly, it’s important to note the upcoming<br />

local elections. Voting is open from 16<br />

<strong>September</strong> to 8 October and your vote will<br />

help decide who represents you at the city,<br />

district and regional council levels. Councils<br />

make a raft of decisions that affect our daily<br />

lives, from the provision of services such as<br />

rubbish and recycling, parks and libraries to<br />

town planning and the collection of rates.<br />

When you vote, take some time to look into<br />

the values and policies of the candidates<br />

seeking your support.<br />

The infamously low voter turn-out rates belie<br />

the importance of local government elections,<br />

so I strongly encourage everyone to make<br />

their vote count this year.<br />

NEWS 3<br />

Deprived area has 13 off-licences within 2km<br />

• From page 1<br />

However, the base licence<br />

of the liquor store already<br />

expired a month prior to the<br />

hearing. Neither the objectors<br />

or the counsel were aware of the<br />

expired licence.<br />

Said Hewison: “There was a big<br />

assumption at the hearing that<br />

if the applicants are not granted<br />

a licence, the store will still be<br />

there.<br />

“The previous owners<br />

could have lodged a renewal<br />

application 20 working days<br />

before the expiry date, but they<br />

did not,” Hewison said.<br />

This prompted the DLC to<br />

grant Super Liquor Woolston<br />

a fifth temporary licence to<br />

accommodate the hearing.<br />

“But how could there be<br />

another temporary licence if the<br />

base licence already expired?”<br />

Hewison said.<br />

“It appears that the committee<br />

believed that after the base<br />

licence was expired, as long as<br />

the temporary authority was<br />

granted before that, then it can<br />

continue on.”<br />

He added: “In fact, this is an<br />

application for a brand new<br />

store, because there is no longer<br />

any underlying licence.”<br />

According to the Sale and<br />

Supply of Alcohol Act 2012,<br />

when an application relates to<br />

a premise where an off-licence<br />

WOOLSTON: There are 13 off-licences, including Super Liquor Woolston, within a 2km radius. Ongoing alcohol-related<br />

issues have led to a petition calling for an alcohol ban in Woolston Village.<br />

is in force and seeks the same<br />

conditions, the grounds for<br />

objection are limited to the<br />

suitability of the application.<br />

Much evidence presented by<br />

the residents at the hearing was<br />

excluded, as they were identified<br />

as matters of good order and<br />

amenity of locality.<br />

McMahon said he and other<br />

objectors had lots to say about<br />

deprivation and excessive of<br />

alcohol within the community.<br />

“But we were not allowed to<br />

talk about that,” he said.<br />

Hewison said it would be<br />

a “different picture” for the<br />

application of a brand new<br />

store.<br />

The objectors can object to all<br />

criteria under section 105 the<br />

Act, including the effect of the<br />

licence on the good order and<br />

amenity of locality.<br />

In spite of statements from<br />

the medical officer of health<br />

representative and other<br />

objectors, the committee<br />

found Brar suitable to hold a<br />

licence.<br />

He and his cousin Jagroop<br />

Singh Brar, who is the other<br />

shareholder and director of the<br />

business, both have diplomas<br />

and experience in business<br />

management outside of the<br />

alcohol industry.<br />

“They have been running the<br />

bottle store without incident for<br />

some 14 months and have taken<br />

on board suggestions provided<br />

to them by the inspector in the<br />

course of regular inspections,”<br />

the committee said.<br />

The business also employed<br />

a “high experienced manager<br />

who takes an active role in the<br />

running of the business”.<br />

Sukhwant Singh Brar, the<br />

owner of Super Liquor Woolston,<br />

said the appeal has put pressures<br />

on his business.<br />

“We haven’t done any crime.<br />

We haven’t done anything<br />

wrong.”<br />

Said Brar: “We put in time<br />

and money and all that. You can<br />

imagine how much money is<br />

going into this, right?”<br />

The store is still operating<br />

under a temporary licence.<br />

Alcohol-related anti-social<br />

behaviour has been an ongoing<br />

issue in Woolston. Calls for<br />

police service in the area, which<br />

the store is located, average more<br />

than 700 a year for a 1km area<br />

for the past three years, with<br />

the last year having the highest<br />

number.<br />

In its latest meeting, the<br />

Waikura Linwood-Central-<br />

Heathcore Community Board<br />

asked the city council to<br />

investigate an alcohol ban after it<br />

received a petition from the local<br />

community.<br />

The petition, with more<br />

than 150 signatures, was in<br />

supporting for an alcohol ban.<br />

THE PLEASANT Point Sailing<br />

Club launched its 102nd sailing<br />

season on Sunday with 24 boats<br />

lining up for the starter’s gun,<br />

and another six just out to enjoy<br />

the day.<br />

The race started in light winds<br />

under sunny blue skies, with<br />

these conditions prevailing for<br />

much of the race. The forecast<br />

blustery nor’wester arrived for<br />

the last third to inject some<br />

excitement for the finish and<br />

provide great stories in the club<br />

house afterwards.<br />

This season the club has<br />

revised its learn-to-sail programmes<br />

and is offering a six<br />

week course, starting on <strong>September</strong><br />

24, for those keen to give<br />

sailing a go.<br />

For those who miss this block<br />

or want extra guidance after<br />

completing it, dedicated ongoing<br />

coaching and support is planned<br />

throughout the season to ensure<br />

no-one slips through the cracks.<br />

In a new development, the<br />

club has added a Sigrid trailer<br />

sailer (Astrid) into its sailing development<br />

programme, to take<br />

the “classroom” onto the water.<br />

Astrid will be crewed by<br />

Record rain<br />

ups load for<br />

parks staff<br />

A RECORD-breaking wet winter<br />

could lead to phenomenal spring<br />

growth and higher than usual<br />

workloads for parks maintenance<br />

crews and home gardeners.<br />

“In July we received 310mm of<br />

rain – about half the amount that<br />

Christchurch typically receives<br />

in a year. If our wet winter is<br />

followed by a warmer than usual<br />

spring, as is forecast, then we are<br />

likely to see rampant grass and<br />

vegetation growth,’’ city council<br />

head of parks Andrew Rutledge<br />

said.<br />

“We have been planning for<br />

this and we have pulled in some<br />

extra resources to help with parks<br />

maintenance over the spring, but<br />

staying on top of the growth will<br />

be challenge,’’ he said.<br />

“We have more than 1200<br />

parks and gardens to look after<br />

across Christchurch and Banks<br />

Peninsula. It is going to be a<br />

huge job to keep them all well<br />

maintained through the peak<br />

growing season, so we may have<br />

to prioritise some tasks over<br />

others.”<br />

Rutland said public safety,<br />

including addressing fire risks,<br />

was the number one concern,<br />

with getting sports grounds ready<br />

for summer also a priority.<br />

Yes, Minister<br />

by Chris Finlayson<br />

Christopher Finlayson was one the most senior ministers of the John Key government and<br />

was one of John Key’s most trusted ministers. He is the author of He Kupu Taurangi: Treaty<br />

Settlements and the Future of Aotearoa New Zealand . He left politics in 2019 and now works for<br />

Bankside Chambers as a barrister.<br />

An insightful and entertaining glimpse into what really made the John Key government one of the<br />

most successful conservative governments New Zealand has ever seen. Christopher Finlayson<br />

is a lawyer and was a senior minister in the John Key-led National government, serving as<br />

Attorney-General, Minister for Treaty of Waitangi Negotiations, and Minister of Arts, Culture and<br />

Heritage, as well as the Minister responsible for the Government Communications Security<br />

Bureau and Minister in Charge of the NZ Security Intelligence Service, NZ’s two main intelligence<br />

agencies. Yes, Minister reveals the inner workings of what it was like to be at the centre of power<br />

in New Zealand, and shines a light on the real John Key. Chris reveals what Key was really like<br />

as prime minister: utterly effective and utterly ruthless when needed. Told with Chris’s trademark<br />

good humour and wit, this is a thoroughly entertaining and perceptive book, as well as a<br />

substantial record of one of the most successful conservative governments in NZ.<br />

Tough Outback<br />

by Mike Bellamy<br />

A Kiwi’s stories of misadventure, mining and mayhem<br />

In 1989 Mike Bellamy set off for the remote town of Wiluna, on the edge of the Western<br />

Desert. Keen to make a buck from Australia’s mining boom, the fledgling Kiwi soon<br />

realised he’d walked across a frontier into a roughshod world where anyone trying to last<br />

longer than a desert sunrise had to watch their back, play by the rules, and keep their wits<br />

about them.<br />

Bellamy’s stories of dongas, dozers and diggers is a window back in time to work-hard,<br />

play-hard land, where snakes, spiders and flies were the least of one’s worries. Welcome<br />

to the tough mining country of Western Australia. Mike Bellamy is a New Zealand author<br />

and earthworks contractor who lives in Taupo, New Zealand. His first book, Tough<br />

Country, was about the lives of loggers, hunters, scrub-cutters, fencers and bushmen in<br />

the New Zealand hinterland. Bellamy also spent 30 years in the mining country of Western<br />

Australia, which is the setting for his second book of yarns, Tough Outback.<br />

Owning It<br />

by Brad Smeele<br />

Deeply thoughtful, honest and riveting story of a high-achieving sportsman who became<br />

a quadriplegic. Brad Smeele’s thrill-seeking, fast-paced life as a professional wakeboarder<br />

came to an abrupt halt seven years ago when an accident caused him to become a<br />

quadriplegic. Wakeboarding is a freestyle sport for super athletic adrenalin junkies. Brad<br />

was at the height of his career, winning world championships and perfecting tricks that no<br />

one else could achieve. He was also a sought-after model and relished his free-wheeling<br />

lifestyle. But in July 2014, while practising his latest trick, he landed badly. Catastrophically,<br />

in fact. He landed on his neck, completely crushing his spinal cord and becoming a<br />

quadriplegic immediately. For someone whose whole life was built around his physical<br />

prowess, this was completely and utterly devastating. Brad has had to work through a great<br />

deal, from being an incredibly physical person in all senses of the word to being someone<br />

with very limited use of his body. The struggle has been monumental, but he’s come to a<br />

place of acceptance. In this book he shares his epic story and the lessons he has learned<br />

through an unexpected teacher. He brings the same focus and determination he brought to<br />

his wakeboarding career to inspiring others.<br />

Garden of Your Dreams<br />

as well as Charlie’s personal plant guide, Garden of Your Dreams is the ideal first step<br />

to dreaming up your own outdoor transformation.<br />

The Elephants of Thula Thula<br />

by Françoise Malby-Anthony<br />

Françoise Malby-Anthony is the owner of a game reserve in South Africa with a remarkable<br />

family of elephants whose adventures have touched hearts around the world. The herd’s<br />

feisty matriarch Frankie knows who’s in charge at Thula Thula, and it’s not Francoise.<br />

But when Frankie becomes ill, and the authorities threaten to remove or cull some of the<br />

herd if the reserve doesn’t expand, Françoise is in a race against time to save her beloved<br />

elephants . . . The joys and challenges of a life dedicated to conservation are vividly<br />

described in The Elephants of Thula Thula. The search is on to get a girlfriend for orphaned<br />

rhino Thabo – and then, as his behaviour becomes increasingly boisterous, a big brother<br />

to teach him manners. Françoise realizes a dream with the arrival of Savannah the<br />

cheetah – an endangered species not seen in the area since the 1940s – and finds herself<br />

rescuing meerkats kept as pets. But will Thula Thula survive the pandemic, an invasion<br />

from poachers and the threat from a mining company wanting access to its land?<br />

As Françoise faces her toughest years yet, she realizes once again that with their wisdom,<br />

resilience and communal bonds, the elephants have much to teach us.<br />

28 years of service recognised<br />

A WOOLSTON resident<br />

has been awarded for her<br />

contributions to the local<br />

community.<br />

Bev Adams, who is well<br />

known through her work as<br />

manager of the Woolston Development<br />

Project, received a Paul<br />

Harris Fellow award for her<br />

contributions.<br />

Launched in 1988, WDP is<br />

a not-for-profit community<br />

organisation that provides<br />

safe recreational, social, and<br />

educational opportunities for<br />

children, women and families.<br />

In her 28 years of working for<br />

community organisations, Adams<br />

held many roles, including<br />

provision of Out of School Care<br />

and Recreation, which offers<br />

before and after school care and<br />

Huge support for harness racing trainer<br />

IN A MATTER of<br />

hours the fundraiser<br />

to help Motukarara<br />

harness racing trainer<br />

Murray Edmonds<br />

and his family at<br />

Addington Raceway<br />

sold out.<br />

Since the popular<br />

trainer-driver was<br />

diagnosed with a<br />

brain tumour several<br />

weeks ago, the harness racing<br />

community has rallied around<br />

Murray<br />

Edmonds<br />

school holiday programmes.<br />

She then spent seven years as<br />

a family support worker for the<br />

WDP, and another six as manager<br />

and administrator before<br />

retiring in 2021.<br />

Adams also established a<br />

women’s social support group,<br />

which marked its 20th anniversary<br />

in October 2020. Here, she<br />

facilitated the group while continuing<br />

volunteering at WDP.<br />

Outside of her work, Adams<br />

was involved with the Woolston<br />

Community Pool, and is also<br />

a member of the Purple Patch<br />

Craft Co-Operative.<br />

The Paul Harris Fellow award<br />

was established by Rotary in<br />

1957 to recognise significant<br />

contributions to either Rotary<br />

or the community.<br />

him and his family.<br />

Among the initiatives<br />

they have come<br />

up with is a fundraising<br />

dinner and auction<br />

at the Silks Lounge on<br />

<strong>September</strong> 22.<br />

“The response has<br />

been incredible,” said<br />

Stevie Golding, who is<br />

organising the function<br />

along with Sandi<br />

Curtin and Murray’s niece,<br />

Aimee Edmonds.<br />

HONOURED: Bev Adams has received a Paul Harris<br />

Fellow award for her significant contributions to the<br />

Woolston community. ​<br />

“We have been inundated<br />

with people wanting to show<br />

their support for Murray. We<br />

are sorry for those who still<br />

want to come but we just do<br />

not have any more room.”<br />

More than 300 people have<br />

bought tickets, with tables of<br />

10 selling for $650.<br />

The evening will also feature<br />

raffles and auctions, with proceeds<br />

going to the Edmonds<br />

family.<br />

“It says so much about<br />

our sport that so many people<br />

want to help out one of our<br />

own who is going through<br />

tough times. The amount of<br />

support has been overwhelming,”<br />

said Golding.<br />

Anyone who would like to<br />

contribute to Edmonds and his<br />

family can still do so at ANZ<br />

06 0851 0495283 00.<br />

UPGRADE: From young Kwik Sticks players to seniors, new surfaces at Nunweek Park will be a benefit to all who play hockey. PHOTOS: GEOFF SOPER<br />

$2.7m upgrade for Nunweek Park playing surfaces<br />

YOUNG HOCKEY players will<br />

soon be able to play on surfaces<br />

good enough for the Black Sticks<br />

thanks to a $393,400 grant from<br />

New Zealand Community Trust.<br />

Two of Nunweek Park’s<br />

sand-based turfs owned and<br />

maintained by the Canterbury<br />

Artificial Surfaces Trust are to be<br />

updated to modern water-based<br />

surfaces along with new lighting,<br />

fencing and drainage.<br />

The two turfs were laid in<br />

2012 following the loss of two<br />

water-based turfs at Porritt Park<br />

in Avonside.<br />

Since then, the turfs at Nunweek<br />

Park in Harewood have<br />

been a seven-days-a-week home<br />

to the region’s 6000 hockey<br />

players, with up to 100 games<br />

and 50-60 training games taking<br />

place there each week.<br />

But with their heavy use, the<br />

turfs are now in a poor state<br />

and are becoming unsafe to play<br />

on. The $2.7 million upgrade<br />

is being funded from CAST<br />

reserves and with the support of<br />

a range of community funders<br />

including the $393k grant from<br />

NZCT.<br />

Said CAST chair Selwyn<br />

Maister: “We’ve squeezed every<br />

last minute out of these two<br />

sand turfs, and they are now<br />

past their use by dates. These<br />

new generation turfs will be a<br />

giant step forward for the future<br />

growth of community hockey<br />

in Canterbury. We’re incredibly<br />

grateful for the amazing support<br />

provided by NZCT and our<br />

other funders. The future is<br />

looking bright for hockey in the<br />

region.”<br />

Former Black Stick and current<br />

NZCT trustee Lesley Murdoch<br />

was delighted with the grant.<br />

“I can only wish my generation<br />

had facilities like those planned<br />

for Nunweek Park. It’s fantastic<br />

to be able to give young players<br />

a surface as good as those played<br />

on at the Olympics. It will greatly<br />

improve their development,<br />

provide enjoyment and fun.”<br />

Said NZCT chief executive<br />

Mike Knel: “We’re only able to<br />

make grants like this through<br />

the support of our venues in<br />

Canterbury and the people who<br />

patronise them. Together we<br />

are helping thousands of people<br />

in Canterbury to stay active for<br />

years to come.<br />

“We’re delighted to be able<br />

to help modernise Nunweek<br />

Park, especially for Canterbury’s<br />

young players. I am sure parents<br />

will enjoy the water surfaces’<br />

kinder treatment of their children’s<br />

elbows and knees.”<br />

The two new water turfs will<br />

add to another sand-based<br />

turf already in place. Work is<br />

expected to start in late this<br />

month and be completed by<br />

March.<br />

BRIGHT FUTURE: Talented boxer Bobby Brown (left) was named the best male under-15 fighter at the Australian Golden Gloves tournament in<br />

Brisbane, while four-time New Zealand amateur titleholder Hamuera Tainui, pictured at the nationals earlier this year, won a silver.<br />

14-year-old steps closer to Youth Olympics<br />

• By Chris Barclay<br />

PROMISING teenage boxer<br />

Bobby Brown is on track for<br />

boxing’s Youth Olympics after<br />

his latest win.<br />

The 14-year-old 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 />

Brown, from the Woolston<br />

Boxing Club, returned home<br />

with the boys cadet under 57kg<br />

open grade gold medal after<br />

ending Queenslander Chaise<br />

Courtney’s 15-bout unbeaten<br />

run via split decision.<br />

“He had two really, really close<br />

rounds (in the Brisbane final)<br />

and then he pulled it together<br />

and he took the last round<br />

clean,” said coach Holly 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 one of the Woolston club’s<br />

original youth intake in 2016<br />

continues to develop.<br />

“He started fighting at 32kg<br />

or something silly,” she said, expanding<br />

on the long-term goal.<br />

“The Youth Olympics is the<br />

pathway and the goal we’re trying<br />

to put him towards. We want<br />

to keep pushing at New Zealand<br />

Boxing saying: ‘This kid 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 />

represent Canterbury at the<br />

New Zealand amateur national<br />

championships in Whanganui in<br />

October.<br />

Meanwhile, world youth<br />

championships-bound boxer<br />

Hamuera Tainui was one of<br />

Woolston’s six silver medal recipients<br />

after a controversial end<br />

to his bout with Matthew Lyons.<br />

The Australian claimed a<br />

split decision although Sullivan<br />

tried to get the 67kg youth final<br />

replayed the following day after<br />

arguing the bout was shorter<br />

than expected.<br />

“It was meant to be three, three<br />

minutes rounds but they only<br />

fought two minutes,” Sullivan<br />

said.<br />

“I complained mid-fight and<br />

got it resolved afterwards that<br />

they could fight again on the<br />

Sunday. Hamz got to the weigh<br />

in but his opponent refused to<br />

fight. His coach wanted to take<br />

what happened as it.”<br />

Tainui, a multiple New<br />

Zealand Golden Gloves winner,<br />

is bound for Europe, where he<br />

will compete in Serbia’s Youth<br />

Golden Gloves.<br />

“It’s the first time he’ll be<br />

exposed to European fighters and<br />

getting himself in a place where he<br />

can be exposed to the level of boxing<br />

he’s going to come up against<br />

at the worlds,” Sullivan said.<br />

Tainui, 17, returns to New<br />

Zealand for the nationals in<br />

Whanganui and then heads back<br />

to Europe for the World Youth<br />

Boxing Championships in La<br />

Nucia, Spain, in November.<br />

Sullivan said $40,000 had<br />

been raised to fund Tainui’s<br />

Australian, Serbian and Spanish<br />

experience, about $10,000 short<br />

of the goal.<br />

“We’ve got a couple of avenues<br />

we’re still pushing towards,”<br />

Sullivan said.<br />

“We’ll just keep asking people<br />

for help.”<br />

Treasures from the past:<br />

John Dyer’s <strong>Bay</strong><br />

ON AUGUST 10, 1849, the<br />

hotly-contested Port Cooper<br />

Deed was signed by 18 Ngāi<br />

Tahu rangatira and the<br />

Government surveyor Walter<br />

Mantell, with the British Crown<br />

acquiring 65,000 acres around<br />

Whakaraupō <strong>Harbour</strong> for just<br />

£200.<br />

THe Canterbury Association’s<br />

pilgrims followed in quick<br />

succession with immigrant<br />

ships arriving in Lyttelton<br />

port from late 1850 through<br />

1851. Processing through<br />

the port town’s immigration<br />

barracks, many moved on to the<br />

Canterbury Plains beyond the<br />

Port Hills, while others took up<br />

newly acquired lands around the<br />

harbour.<br />

The first pākehā settlers, of<br />

what eventually became today’s<br />

Governors <strong>Bay</strong>, were Robert and<br />

Mary Harris with their large<br />

family, who arrived on June 9,<br />

1851. They were followed in late<br />

1851 by one John Dyer, his sister<br />

Mary Ann and their good friend<br />

Charles Parsons, all aged in their<br />

20s. These young adventurers<br />

arrived aboard the Canterbury<br />

Association’s 16th ship, Canterbury,<br />

on October 18, 1851.<br />

Having pre-purchased 50 acres<br />

of land before leaving Britain,<br />

John Dyer and his erstwhile<br />

companions moved on to their<br />

new home where the Lyttelton<br />

track met an old Māori track<br />

that wound its way up and over<br />

Pukeatua (later Dyers Pass)<br />

to the plains beyond. Charles<br />

purchased the 24-acre lot next<br />

door and down to the water’s<br />

edge, and together with John and<br />

Mary Ann, they built Parakiraki<br />

Stoke Farm where they planted<br />

the first stone fruit orchards in<br />

Canterbury.<br />

For the first six months they<br />

lived in tents as they built the<br />

earliest sections of the historic<br />

Waitahuna Homestead, where<br />

they lived together for the next<br />

three years of hard toil. When<br />

Charles and Mary Ann married<br />

on April 25, 1855, John moved<br />

View of Governors <strong>Bay</strong>. Postcard sent on December 24, 1909. Te Ūaka The Lyttelton Museum ref. 7942.1<br />

https://www.teuaka.org.nz/online-collection/11281<strong>07</strong><br />

out and built his own house further<br />

up the hill. With the success<br />

of their orchard enterprise, John<br />

also bought a sweeping section<br />

of land where the Governors<br />

<strong>Bay</strong> School now stands and all<br />

the way down to the water – and<br />

thus it was that this place also<br />

came to be known as Dyer’s <strong>Bay</strong>.<br />

As many more settlers arrived<br />

to farm the area, Whakaraupō<br />

quickly became the market garden<br />

for the growing population<br />

in Christchurch city.<br />

In 1856 the Provincial Council<br />

provided funds for the construction<br />

of a bridle track from<br />

Lyttelton out to Dyer’s <strong>Bay</strong> and<br />

beyond. At John Dyer’s instigation,<br />

the council also provided<br />

for a survey of the historic Māori<br />

path up and over the pass, with<br />

work on the road finally beginning<br />

in 1862.<br />

With his local knowledge,<br />

Dyer advised the engineers and<br />

surveyors on the best routes,<br />

and even provided meals for the<br />

workers.<br />

Once the roads were completed,<br />

travellers needed to traverse<br />

Stoke Farm for either route.<br />

With John Dyer being such an<br />

affable chap he would often make<br />

a point of greeting wayfarers,<br />

and so the cattle road up the hill<br />

came to be known as Dyer’s Pass<br />

Rd, being formally gazetted as<br />

such in 1911.<br />

In 1860, John married one<br />

Miss Elizabeth Frances Gray,<br />

newly arrived from Britain, and<br />

the two set about the task of<br />

raising a family.<br />

Also in 1860, a stone church<br />

was built at the centre of the<br />

growing village that was now<br />

more often referred to as Governor’s<br />

(both with and without the<br />

apostrophe) rather than Dyer’s<br />

<strong>Bay</strong>, although the latter appears<br />

to have remained in local usage<br />

until about 1863.<br />

As the years passed, Mary<br />

Ann became well known for her<br />

charitable works for the church<br />

and parsonage, while Elizabeth<br />

gave birth to five children, with<br />

Charles and John developing<br />

their farm holdings. Crushed<br />

between a bullock and a gate in<br />

1872, John Dyer survived this<br />

mishap, but the hard colonial life<br />

on the farm had taken its toll. He<br />

died on January 6, 1876, aged<br />

just 48 years.<br />

PowerUp your workplace with women<br />

IN A tight labour market, there’s<br />

a way to ease the squeeze for<br />

employers – women. There is a<br />

deep and experienced pool of<br />

talent available in Christchurch,<br />

yet economists estimate that<br />

approximately 20,000 women are<br />

either underemployed or underutilised<br />

in the workforce.<br />

After identifying that a lack<br />

of localised information and<br />

confidence are key reasons<br />

women hold back from seeking<br />

employment, ChristchurchNZ’s<br />

PowerUp initiative was born.<br />

Centred around getting women<br />

to a regionalised information<br />

hub at www.powerupyourcareer.<br />

co.nz, it’s designed to inform,<br />

inspire and connect them to a<br />

meaningful career by stepping<br />

them through a career journey fit<br />

for them.<br />

PowerUp comes at a critical<br />

time for businesses as they cry<br />

out for skilled workers in the<br />

labour shortage crunch. There<br />

is a record high number of jobs<br />

available in Christchurch, with<br />

a 33 percent increase in jobs<br />

advertised online between 2021<br />

and <strong>2022</strong>, with manufacturing,<br />

tech, primary industries,<br />

construction and healthcare<br />

skills most in demand.<br />

Yet the skills employers are<br />

looking for may not be what you<br />

expect. It is, in fact, transferable<br />

skills that fill up 80 per cent<br />

powerupyourcareer.co.nz<br />

of job ads.<br />

Untouched World founder and<br />

chief executive Peri Drysdale<br />

understands the<br />

need to support<br />

women into<br />

roles they may<br />

(incorrectly)<br />

perceive they’re<br />

not qualified for,<br />

and advocates<br />

for potential<br />

employees to<br />

back themselves,<br />

Peri<br />

Drysdale<br />

be open to learning and prepared<br />

to work their way up.<br />

YOUR FUTURE<br />

“First and foremost, we look<br />

for a can-do attitude, great work<br />

ethic, loyalty, and positivity.<br />

Having a growth<br />

mindset and a<br />

willingness to<br />

pitch in with<br />

tasks that might<br />

lie outside<br />

your position<br />

Charlotte<br />

Walshe<br />

description can<br />

go a long way<br />

to helping you<br />

achieve your<br />

career goals.”<br />

Jade Software chief executive<br />

Charlotte Walshe has a similar<br />

sentiment, and says the job application<br />

process is gaining a skill<br />

in itself.<br />

“Challenge yourself to do what<br />

feels uncomfortable or just outside<br />

what you might think is your<br />

reach. Make it a goal and make<br />

a plan. Even if you don’t quite<br />

get there the first attempt, you’ll<br />

learn a load and make yourself<br />

ready for the next one,” Walshe<br />

says.<br />

And while it’s important for<br />

women to promote their transferable<br />

skills, it’s also a job hunter’s<br />

market and employers need to<br />

showcase their own offerings to<br />

appeal to the right people.<br />

Canterbury Employers’ Chamber<br />

of Commerce chief executive<br />

Leeann Watson says employers<br />

have to be prepared to tell their<br />

story and explain their purpose<br />

to a new generation of workers,<br />

who are more likely to be concerned<br />

about their work aligning<br />

with their values.<br />

“In this market, you are being<br />

interviewed as much as you are<br />

interviewing,” Watson said.<br />

Another Christchurch-based<br />

employer adapted their job advert<br />

to focus more on the company<br />

culture and had an extraordinary<br />

response both in the volume and<br />

quality of candidates – receiving<br />

over 100 applications. A similar<br />

job was advertised by another<br />

company who received just 10<br />

applicants.<br />

To help employers grow<br />

their staff, ChristchurchNZ are<br />

currently running a series of<br />

workshops focusing on diversity,<br />

equity and inclusion. Aimed at<br />

small-to-medium-sized businesses,<br />

they will support managers<br />

and CEOs in fostering inclusive<br />

workplaces and open them up to<br />

invaluable diverse thinking.<br />

The workshops will run<br />

from August to October and<br />

details will be available on<br />

powerupyourcareer.co.nz soon.<br />

Sorry we’re in your way<br />

We’re making<br />

Dyers Pass Rd safer<br />

We’ve started the next stage of safety improvement work between<br />

Sign of the Takahe and Governors <strong>Bay</strong>.<br />

We’re widening the road and installing safety barriers in several more<br />

high-risk locations to make Dyers Pass Road safer for everyone.<br />

We know the work is disruptive and we’ve listened to your feedback<br />

from stage one. Changes have been made to improve traffic flow<br />

while we’re working.<br />

If you can, we encourage road users to detour via the Lyttelton<br />

tunnel or Gebbies Pass. Otherwise expect delays of around<br />

20 minutes plus travel time. Look out for the electronic<br />

travel time boards to help you decide which route to take.<br />

Ara graduate’s start-up helps the desk-bound<br />

NEW ZEALAND is recognised<br />

internationally as a country<br />

where students from around<br />

the world can gain a worldclass<br />

education, and then move<br />

into a range of fields where, in<br />

collaboration with colleagues,<br />

they can develop ideas and<br />

solutions for problems facing<br />

the local and global community.<br />

Here in Christchurch, the Ara<br />

Institute of Canterbury provides<br />

international students with the<br />

opportunity to study in a supportive<br />

and flexible environment<br />

that fosters innovation and<br />

creativity.<br />

One example is Henry<br />

Nguyen, who came to New Zealand<br />

from Vietnam in 2015 to<br />

study at Ara. Henry says he was<br />

drawn to New Zealand both for<br />

the scenery and the reputation of<br />

our education sector.<br />

“New Zealand is a gorgeous<br />

country and Kiwis are so friendly.<br />

The course at Ara was good,<br />

but the people I got to study<br />

beside were better – everyone is<br />

innovative and helpful. People<br />

respect you and want you to<br />

grow.”<br />

In 2018, Engineering New<br />

Zealand named Henry student<br />

engineer of the year. Then,<br />

after completing his Bachelor<br />

of Engineering Technology, he<br />

worked in Christchurch as a<br />

mechanical design engineer. It<br />

was in this job Henry noticed<br />

he spent a lot of time at his desk<br />

without moving.<br />

“I had foot and back pain, and<br />

I couldn’t find anything that<br />

really helped me.”<br />

This led to his launch of a<br />

start-up called Vanteks in 2021,<br />

with his first product being the<br />

Senpro 1, a simple device that<br />

monitors desk posture, giving<br />

alerts when a correction or<br />

rest is needed.<br />

It also fulfilled a lifelong<br />

passion for Henry: “I always<br />

wanted to be an inventor.”<br />

Henry developed Senpro<br />

1 in about two weeks, and<br />

went straight into testing. The<br />

device is now being trialled by<br />

ChristchurchNZ (the economic<br />

development agency), as well as<br />

at EverYellow, MenuAid, The<br />

Buzz Club, and the Ministry of<br />

Awesome.<br />

“I’m really proud to launch this<br />

technology,” Henry says, “and<br />

I want to grow the business. I<br />

know this can have an impact on<br />

people around the world.”<br />

In developing Senpro 1, Henry<br />

was able to draw on the creative<br />

techniques he developed during<br />

his study, and on his connections<br />

17<br />

INNOVATION:<br />

Henry Nguyen<br />

displays the<br />

device he<br />

invented to<br />

monitor desk<br />

posture.<br />

from Ara. For anyone looking to<br />

come to New Zealand to study or<br />

start a business, Henry encourages<br />

them.<br />

“New Zealand is a great<br />

country, and there’s so much<br />

support. People are willing to<br />

help start-ups, they genuinely<br />

care and they want you to<br />

succeed. It’s part of the Kiwi<br />

culture.”<br />

Hybrid SUV with a point of difference<br />

IF YOU THINK the cost of fuel is<br />

taxing the household budget now,<br />

I read recently that motor industry<br />

commentators were expecting<br />

prices to fluctuate for months to<br />

come.<br />

That’s where electric vehicles<br />

and hybrids come in, cutting<br />

down the use of petrol is on the<br />

minds of almost everyone and<br />

there is no better time to buy a<br />

hybrid. What’s more there is no<br />

better time to make that purchase<br />

the new generation Mitsubishi<br />

Outlander PHEV; from $60,990 all<br />

three models in the PHEV range<br />

qualify for a $5750 New Zealand<br />

Government Clean Car Rebate.<br />

This evaluation focuses on the<br />

range-topping VRX that is listed at<br />

$73,990 and was carrying a couple<br />

of high-grade extras – light grey<br />

cross-stitched leather trim and<br />

diamond flake paint that together<br />

adds around an extra $1500.<br />

By the time you add in on-road<br />

costs, the Outlander PHEV in this<br />

form is sitting towards the luxury<br />

car bracket and it’s fair to say that<br />

it is very much a luxury model,<br />

it has an extremely high level of<br />

fitment and the cabin area is plush<br />

and comforting – a lot to do with<br />

the prestige of that light leather.<br />

I particularly like it and I like the<br />

feel from inside, it is Mitsubishi’s<br />

flagship SUV and it’s worthy of the<br />

near $80k price tag.<br />

What is also very tempting<br />

is Mitsubishi’s fuel use claim of<br />

1.6-litres per 100km. Sure, that’s<br />

at best possible usage, but like all<br />

hybrids the Outlander is frugal, it<br />

is so thrifty that it is hard to fathom<br />

that we are talking about a big SUV<br />

that has seven seats (XLS and VRX)<br />

and a lot of off-the-seal potential.<br />

There are dials and buttons that can<br />

quickly alter the driveline settings<br />

so that cross-country travel can<br />

be tailored to suit the impending<br />

conditions.<br />

As its nomenclature suggests,<br />

the Outlander PHEV is a plugin<br />

hybrid. No surprises there,<br />

Mitsubishi launched the PHEV<br />

here in 2014 and since then it has<br />

become the plug-in benchmark.<br />

It stole the lead, and eight years<br />

later it is still turning heads with<br />

its technology and quality. It is all<br />

new for <strong>2022</strong>, there is a fresh, curvy<br />

shape and its interior has been<br />

redesigned to provide optimum<br />

user-friendly status.<br />

As plug-ins have become more<br />

popular, so has my ability to<br />

relax with them. Charging is easy<br />

and, what’s more, Mitsubishi has<br />

provided a home charging cable<br />

of decent length – 5m to be exact.<br />

I don’t have a designated wallbox<br />

or charging system at my home,<br />

so it’s a matter of using the long<br />

cable and plugging into a standard<br />

three-pin socket located on the<br />

wall of my garage. It’s a fair distance<br />

to the car which is why the long<br />

cable is so important to me; and,<br />

of course, a type 2 to type 2 cable<br />

is also included for when you have<br />

the need to connect to a designated<br />

public-use charge port.<br />

The distance you can travel on<br />

electric only mode is claimed by<br />

Mitsubishi to be up to 84km, that<br />

sits well with the readout during<br />

my time with the test car although<br />

on a cold morning that distance<br />

is slightly reduced, but with the<br />

MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER VRX: Choice of conventional engine or a plug-in hybrid driveline.<br />

warmth of the day it lengthens.<br />

There’s no fear of range anxiety<br />

either, if battery capacity is<br />

depleted the petrol engine kicks in<br />

and normal transmission resumes,<br />

fossil fuel drive is motivated. On a<br />

full tank a readout indicates around<br />

500km can be travelled before the<br />

petrol tank needs replenishing.<br />

The Outlander’s hybrid driveline<br />

is far from simple, it’s a twin motor<br />

system, one up front and one at the<br />

rear, there’s also a 2.4-litre fourcylinder<br />

engine that drives through<br />

an eight-step continuously variable<br />

transmission.<br />

Mitsubishi claims a power output<br />

of 98kW with 195Nm of torque,<br />

while these figures may seem a<br />

little modest you have to take into<br />

account there is a wealth of power<br />

and torque through electrical<br />

supply pumping the figures up by<br />

85kW/100kW and 255Nm/195Nm<br />

front to rear respectively. You can<br />

sure feel the surge of the latter under<br />

acceleration, the combined force<br />

from the engine and motor is quite<br />

vivid, especially in power mode.<br />

Out of all the drive modes<br />

the one I liked the most was the<br />

designated one-pedal EV mode, it<br />

ushers in acceleration willingly, but<br />

also provides solid braking impetus<br />

as soon as the throttle pedal is<br />

• Fuel usage – 1.6l/100km<br />

disengaged, it’s quite a reassuring<br />

feeling.<br />

I took the Outlander PHEV on<br />

much of my normal route inland<br />

towards Darfield, the weather was<br />

grim with heavy rain and wind,<br />

but I felt entirely comfortable with<br />

its manners on the road, there is<br />

healthy feedback at the steering<br />

wheel, and even with a lot of water<br />

under the big 20in tyres there was<br />

a strong feeling of accuracy when<br />

corners were presented.<br />

There’s also a strong feeling of<br />

connection between driver and the<br />

road, a lot of that has to do with<br />

the complexity of the suspension,<br />

while the spring and damper rates<br />

“The Diamond Dealer award was<br />

an outstanding result achieved by the<br />

whole team at Christchurch Mitsubishi,”<br />

are biased towards that luxury feel<br />

I alluded to earlier, there is enough<br />

compliance in the system so that<br />

bumps are ruts are dealt to, but<br />

stability isn’t compromised, the<br />

body structure is held level.<br />

I had the evaluation car in my<br />

care for a week and I very early<br />

grew to enjoy its rather special<br />

characteristics, not only is it more<br />

than just one vehicle, all that it<br />

can achieve it does so very well.<br />

Sure, the two rear seats are a bit<br />

confining for those large of stature,<br />

but it’s no different to any other<br />

seven-seater of this size, rear<br />

load space is still very generous<br />

at 472-litres with the third row of<br />

seats flat – spanning to 1373-litres<br />

with the second row down.<br />

If the Outlander PHEV is out<br />

of reach financially, bear in mind<br />

that much the same driveline is<br />

available in the Eclipse Cross,<br />

Mitsubishi’s mid-size SUV, and<br />

from $52,990 it is a lot more<br />

affordable. It also qualifies for a<br />

$5750 rebate.<br />

I know two people who own an<br />

Outlander hybrid and both are<br />

thrilled with their purchase. That’s<br />

no surprise, the Outlander has long<br />

been one of my favourite SUVs,<br />

and the hybrid version is just the<br />

icing on the cake.<br />

City dealership wins Mitsubishi award<br />

Barr said.<br />

“These awards are<br />

ferociously competitive<br />

and this goes to<br />

show the high level of<br />

customer service the<br />

team at Christchurch<br />

Mitsubishi offers.”<br />

General manager of<br />

the dealership, Steve<br />

Hammond, said everyone<br />

at the dealership<br />

was thrilled with<br />

the award.<br />

“These are awarded<br />

for dealership<br />

excellence in all<br />

aspects of the business<br />

– service, parts,<br />

sales and customer<br />

service. We are so<br />

proud of the whole<br />

team at Christchurch<br />

Mitsubishi, who work tirelessly every day.<br />

This award is recognition for all their work.<br />

This award is for them,” Hammond said.<br />

SUCCESS: Mathew Barr (left)<br />

FEATURED ARTIST<br />

JANE DOWNES<br />

BIOGRAPHY<br />

Jane is a full time sculptor/designer<br />

working from her home workshop<br />

in Little River on Banks Peninsula,<br />

Canterbury. Jane’s current practice<br />

consists of small, medium and large<br />

indoor and outdoor works made<br />

in steel.<br />

Sculptures are constructed from parts of<br />

plasma cut and formed from sheet steel and<br />

profiles, rather than working in the ‘full round’<br />

- Jane calls this style ‘2 1/2D’. This enables<br />

her to utilise scrap sheet metal and other<br />

discarded materials. Jane exhibits at galleries<br />

and major sculpture events throughout<br />

New Zealand and undertakes site and client<br />

specific sculpture commissions as well as<br />

selling smaller works online.<br />

forms in her work that resonate with her,<br />

both natural and manmade. Often common<br />

or from childhood, sometimes delicate and<br />

fleeting objects from nature, sometimes robust<br />

geometric forms from popular culture and<br />

industry. Specific themes in her work include<br />

colonisation, security and shelter, along with<br />

more abstract themes commenting on the<br />

human condition, challenging preconceptions<br />

of purpose and beauty, valuable and lowly,<br />

masculine and feminine, permanence and<br />

the ephemeral. These dichotomies are also<br />

reflected in her use of recycled, found and<br />

industrial materials. Jane believes in making her<br />

work accessible and so most of her pieces are<br />

unlimited editions.<br />

Jane’s husband Mario, with his knowledge<br />

of materials and engineering, aswell as his<br />

installation skills plays a large part in her<br />

work. Jane is interested in feelings evoked<br />

by shape, form and pattern, how we react<br />

to scale and light and the influence this has<br />

on art, architecture and design. Jane uses<br />

THANK YOU<br />

TO OUR GENEROUS<br />

SPONSORS<br />

Ferry Road<br />

This year’s proceeds from The Mt Pleasant<br />

Art Exhibition fundraiser will go directly<br />

towards new technology for the school to<br />

support learning within classrooms.<br />

READ MORE FROM NEW PRINCIPAL DONNA ELLERY BELOW...<br />

Now that the Mt Pleasant School<br />

turf has been fully funded,<br />

thanks to overwhelming community<br />

support and various grants,<br />

the top item on the school’s<br />

list is...TECHNOLOGY<br />

With the implementation of the new Digital<br />

Technologies curriculum, staff at Te Kura<br />

O Paeraki/Mt Pleasant School have been<br />

engaged with professional development in this<br />

area since the beginning of 2021. Teachers and<br />

students have become actively engaged in the<br />

design of digital learning across a variety of<br />

different platforms.<br />

As teachers and students across the school<br />

have increased their digital fluency, it has<br />

become important for us to have access to<br />

an equitable number of devices. Equity of<br />

devices will ensure that all our students have<br />

the opportunity to become digitally capable,<br />

enabling them to become creators rather than<br />

purely users of technology. We would like to<br />

increase our technology with the help of our<br />

community and the PTA run initiatives this<br />

year. Having an additional technology boost,<br />

alongside the ongoing school funding,<br />

will help us get technology and devices<br />

at a more effective level for the children.<br />

All of the technology is used to;<br />

• support learning within classrooms and is<br />

a highly motivating and powerful tool when<br />

teaching the core curriculum areas.<br />

• give all students equal access and the<br />

opportunity to learn alongside their peers.<br />

• help students requiring extra support with<br />

their learning to have a platform that they<br />

could successfully engage with, working<br />

alongside their peer group in a confident,<br />

inclusive manner.<br />

• engage with meaningful and collaborative<br />

transdisciplinary learning experiences across<br />

our curriculum.<br />

• provide students with the knowledge to<br />

become creators of digital solutions.<br />

How can you contribute?<br />

• Support The Mt Plesant Art Exhibition<br />

by coming along, buying a raffle ticket,<br />

a sausage from the sausage sizzle and if<br />

you love a piece of art please buy it!<br />

• Donations can be made at the school office<br />

via EFTPOS or cash<br />

• Bank directly into the PTA account - 12 3483<br />
