Up it goes: Pukeko Centre<br />
sports hall takes shape<br />
• By Natalie Pham<br />
RESIDENTS ARE delighted<br />
with visible signs of progress<br />
made at Parkland’s Pukeko<br />
Centre.<br />
Latest construction work has<br />
marked the completion of the<br />
superstructure and skeleton<br />
build of the multi-use sports<br />
hall.<br />
More work will be carried<br />
out to complete the $1.2 million<br />
hall in the following months,<br />
including infrastructure and<br />
fit out.<br />
When it opens late next year,<br />
the hall will provide space for<br />
sports activities, indoor bowls,<br />
club meetings, presentations<br />
and performances.<br />
Pukeko Centre committee<br />
member Andrew Weastell said<br />
the sports hall is ‘pretty much<br />
fully-funded now’.<br />
“I’m absolutely delighted. It<br />
has been a long, hard road, particularly<br />
the last two or three<br />
years. I want to acknowledge all<br />
the grant providers that have<br />
come on board, particularly<br />
the Christchurch City Council<br />
and local councillor Celeste<br />
Donovan.”<br />
The centre has received a<br />
number of inquiries as the<br />
community started to see the<br />
progress.<br />
Said Weastell: “We’ve got a<br />
number of groups standing by<br />
INTEREST: The centre has received a number of inquiries<br />
from groups since construction started two weeks ago.<br />
waiting for the [sports hall] to<br />
be built and opened so they can<br />
get in and use it.”<br />
When completed, it will also<br />
be used as a school hall for<br />
Parkview Primary School.<br />
Weastell said the school never<br />
received sufficient funding after<br />
the February 22, 2011, earthquake<br />
to build a new hall that is<br />
fit for purpose.<br />
“Their school hall holds 150<br />
kids, but the school roll is close<br />
to 450 so they haven’t got an<br />
indoor space for a gathering assembly<br />
for the whole school.”<br />
The next stage will be<br />
building a new breezeway and<br />
completing the car parking,<br />
while the last stage will be the<br />
completion of the landscaping<br />
and an outdoor futsal court.<br />

Toy library searching for a new librarian<br />
• By Natalie Pham<br />
A JOB opportunity for toy-lovers<br />
is now available at a library in<br />
Shirley, but with a catch.<br />
The hunt for a toy librarian<br />
at the Shirley Toy Library has<br />
begun after its longest librarian<br />
resigned this year.<br />
Said president Rachel Seddon:<br />
“It’s a cool job because you get to<br />
play with toys all day.”<br />
However, the opening hours<br />
are “a little bit odd”.<br />
At the moment, this not-forprofit<br />
library only opens twice<br />
a week – Wednesday afternoon<br />
and Saturday morning.<br />
While committee members<br />
want to open the library more<br />
often, limited funding and<br />
grants have stopped them from<br />
doing so.<br />
As most of the grants are<br />
spent on acquiring new toys,<br />
the library is left with little to no<br />
money.<br />
This also restricts them from<br />
advertising to attract more<br />
members.<br />
“We tend to make a little loss<br />
every year. We rely on grants,<br />
donations, and membership fees<br />
to keep us afloat,” Seddon said.<br />
The library will be looking into<br />
increasing its hours once there<br />
are more members on board.<br />
It used be the biggest toy<br />
library in the country with<br />
more than 100 members until<br />
a decrease in membership in<br />
recent years.<br />
It currently has 62 members,<br />
with 32 full members and 28<br />
duty members.<br />
A full membership costs<br />
$120 per year, whereas a duty<br />
membership costs $40. As duty<br />
members pay less fees, they are<br />
required to complete four duties<br />
during their membership year,<br />
including rostering at the library<br />
and fundraising.<br />
However memberships do not<br />
cover the additional rental fees<br />
ranging from 50 cents to $5,<br />
depending on the toys.<br />
Members can borrow up to 10<br />
toys at a time, with a collection<br />
of 1000 toys catering from<br />
newborn to seven years old.<br />
“While the full membership<br />
gives us more money, it also<br />
makes the finding of a new<br />
librarian more important,”<br />
Seddon said.<br />
She joined the library as a<br />
duty member in 2018 before<br />
getting more involved with the<br />
committee a year later.<br />
As a mother of two, Seddon<br />
knows how quickly a child can<br />
grow out of a toy.<br />
“So the library works very well.<br />
And it’s very good for reducing<br />
VACANCY:<br />
Shirley Toy<br />
Library is on<br />
a hunt for<br />
a new toy<br />
librarian to<br />
look after its<br />
collection of<br />
almost 1000<br />
toys, catering<br />
from<br />
newborn to<br />
seven years<br />
old.<br />
and recycling toys because<br />
everyone is sharing toys,” she<br />
said.<br />
The memories her two<br />
children have made with these<br />
toys are what she likes most<br />
about volunteering at the library.<br />
Seddon recommended people<br />
get involved with a toy library,<br />
particularly new mothers or<br />
parents.<br />

A word from Ilam MP<br />
Sarah<br />
Pallett<br />
These past few weeks have been a time<br />
of sadness for many following the death<br />
of Queen Elizabeth II. Her Majesty’s<br />
funeral, the New Zealand State Memorial<br />
service, and local memorial services have<br />
been beautiful tributes to a life of devoted<br />
service and dedication to her people.<br />
The New Zealand House of<br />
Representatives adjourned out of respect<br />
and resumed sitting following the<br />
Queen’s funeral.<br />
At the time of writing this article,<br />
we are expecting that the Accident<br />
Compensation (Maternal Birth Injury<br />
and Other Matters) Amendment Bill<br />
will soon come before the House for<br />
consideration at its third and final<br />
reading.<br />
At the moment, many women who<br />
experience birthing injuries are not<br />
eligible for ACC funded treatment and<br />
support. This Bill addresses this historical<br />
inequity.<br />
I want to thank the Minister for ACC,<br />
Hon Carmel Sepuloni, for bringing this<br />
Bill to the House. She has, from the very<br />
beginning, been absolutely determined<br />
that this legislation will ensure that all<br />
maternal birth injuries that can be caused<br />
by childbirth are covered.<br />
I have spent many hours working with<br />
the Labour team on this legislation<br />
and I am immensely proud of it. Using<br />
my past experience as a midwife and<br />
midwifery lecturer I have assisted the<br />
Education Workforce Select Committee<br />
as a subject matter expert to help shape<br />
this legislation.<br />
One of the reasons I became an MP was<br />
to help make people’s lives better, and this<br />
Bill does exactly that. Once enacted into<br />
law it will enable an estimated 28,000<br />
birthing people a year receive prompt<br />
and effective care.<br />
As always, I’m here to help. Please get<br />
in touch on 0800 727 244 or pop into<br />
my office if you need any assistance.<br />

GOAL: Harry Priestley marked his second participation in a dressage event at Christchurch Riding for the Disabled last week.<br />
Young Harry happy to be back<br />
in horse riding programme<br />
• By Natalie Pham<br />
SIX YEARS ago, Harry Priestley<br />
got frustrated and walked away<br />
from his horse riding programme.<br />
However, the 11-year-old has<br />
marked his second participation<br />
in a dressage event at the Christchurch<br />
equestrian centre last week.<br />
Harry was among 10 riders of<br />
varying ages and disabilities taking<br />
part in the event organised<br />
by Christchurch Riding for the<br />
Disabled.<br />
Because the event focused on the<br />
rider achieving the goal of completing<br />
the test and getting marked<br />
on the completion, each participant<br />
received a certificate and a score<br />
sheet.<br />
Said CHCHRDA president<br />
Philippa Parker: “We make it as<br />
fun and relaxed as possible.”<br />
All participants have been<br />
attending weekly sessions prior<br />
to the event, with each session<br />
tailoring to their specific needs and<br />
personal goals.<br />
The Christchurch South<br />
Karamata Intermediate pupil was<br />
diagnosed with autism when he<br />
was three.<br />
Said his mother Rachel: “For<br />
Harry and the way that his brain<br />
works, it’s about what Harry wants<br />
and what Harry needs. But as<br />
humans, we need to learn how to<br />
work with other people.”<br />
Harry is enrolled in two programmes<br />
– education and sport<br />
and recreation, where he gets<br />
to learn about horse riding and<br />
challenges himself with exercises<br />
require teamwork.<br />
“Everyone has helped me in all<br />
different ways,” he said.<br />
“I used to get really, really angry<br />
but now I don’t get angry at all.<br />
Well, I’m better at managing my<br />
anger than I used to.”<br />
The organisation also offers a<br />
therapy programme for riders who<br />
have higher support needs, ranging<br />
from building muscle strength to<br />
improving walking ability.<br />
Harry began the riding sessions<br />
with New Zealand Riding for the<br />
Disabled at five-years-old. However,<br />
his sessions have been on and<br />
off due to high demands.<br />
Like many riders, he started with<br />
a small pony and worked his way<br />
up. After many years, he is finally<br />
paired with Zeus - a ‘big and tall’<br />
horse.<br />
When Harry first walked in<br />
with his new horse, Parker said he<br />
looked proud of himself.<br />
“Zeus challenges Harry to<br />
work with it. That horse can be<br />
independent if it wants to, so Harry<br />
has to make sure that the horse is<br />
listening to the instruction.”<br />
SUCCESS: Harry was proud when he finally got paired up with his new horse Zeus.<br />

Signs unlock fishing spots for season<br />
MORE THAN 100 new angler<br />
access signs have gone up around<br />
the North Canterbury Fish and<br />
Game region in preparation for<br />
the opening of the fishing season<br />
next month.<br />
The angler access signs unlock<br />
a vast area of fishing spots for<br />
people with a fishing licence.<br />
The signs will largely replace<br />
the worn out, dilapidated signs<br />
– but several are for new access<br />
points.<br />
North Canterbury Fish<br />
and Game has worked with<br />
landowners to secure access<br />
to these spots for anglers. The<br />
access points will also be open<br />
to other river users. There are<br />
more than 400 angler access and<br />
information signs in the region,<br />
all the way from the Southern<br />
Alps to the river mouths on the<br />
coast.<br />
Replacing these signs has<br />
enabled Fish and Game staff to<br />
also see how good the rivers are<br />
looking for the opening of the<br />
new season.<br />
The lowland Selwyn River<br />
is looking in great shape.<br />
Continual strong river flows,<br />
combined with Te Waihora/<br />
Lake Ellesmere having several<br />

OPENING: North Canterbury Fish and Game officer Harry Graham-Samson installs a new angler access sign at the Lower<br />
Selwyn Huts, with Te Waihora/Lake Ellesmere in the background.<br />
had good flows when staff visited<br />
during the recent cold snap to<br />
place new signs in the area.<br />
The wet winter has also meant<br />
plenty of water to help sea run<br />
salmon return to the spawning<br />
streams.<br />
The new signs will help salmon<br />
anglers access fishing spots when<br />
they go fishing with the<br />
new $5 sea-run salmon<br />
harvest card required for<br />
sea run salmon fishing.<br />
Said North Canterbury<br />
Fish and Game chief<br />
executive Rasmus<br />
Gabrielsson (right):<br />
“Canterbury anglers have access<br />
to some world-class<br />
fisheries in the region.<br />
We want to help anglers<br />
of all ages and skill levels<br />
access these fantastic<br />
fisheries hence why we<br />
have put in this work<br />
over the winter months<br />
to improve access for anglers.<br />
“Anglers’ licence fees pay<br />
for these signs, and many<br />
anglers don’t realise where their<br />
licence fees go. But whenever<br />
they see an angler access sign<br />
and access a river or lake, they<br />
can see some tangible results<br />
from purchasing a fishing<br />
licence.”<br />

Panelle – Sicilian chickpea fritters<br />
Ingredients<br />
230g chickpea flour<br />
3 cups water, room temperature<br />
2 Tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped<br />
1 litre vegetable oil<br />
1 lemon<br />
Sea salt flakes<br />
Freshly cracked black pepper<br />
PHOTOS: SIMON LAMBERT<br />
Directions<br />
Pour the water into a large bowl.<br />
Gradually add the flour, stirring constantly<br />
to remove all lumps.<br />
Pour the mixture into a saucepan, and<br />
cook over medium heat until thick like<br />
polenta or porridge.<br />
Remove from the heat and add salt and<br />
pepper to taste. Add the parsley and stir to<br />
combine.<br />
Have a clean chopping board or something<br />
similar ready.<br />
Pour the mixture immediately on to<br />
the board and spread evenly. Cover with<br />
baking paper and gently roll to a thickness<br />
of 4mm.<br />
Cool the dough for at least 2 hours to<br />
firm up.<br />
Cut the dough into rectangles sized 5cm<br />
x 3cm.<br />
Pour the oil into a deep-sided, heavybased<br />
pan. Heat to 170degC.<br />
Cook two to four panelle at a time – it<br />
is important not to overcrowd the pan.<br />
Fry until golden for 3 minutes then turn<br />
and cook for a further 3 minutes or until<br />
golden and puffy. Remove with a slotted<br />
spoon and drain on kitchen paper.<br />
Continue until all the panelle are all<br />
cooked.<br />
Squeeze over a little lemon juice and<br />
sprinkle sea salt and pepper.<br />
Enjoy them as a tasty snack.<br />

Quinoa crepes<br />
Makes 10<br />
Ingredients<br />
1½ cup quinoa<br />
1½ cups filtered water<br />
1 cup tightly packed greens such as<br />
spinach, silverbeet or kale<br />
2 tsp coconut oil or olive oil<br />
2 spring onions, roughly chopped<br />
½ tsp salt<br />
½ chilli<br />
Coconut oil for cooking<br />
Suggested toppings:<br />
Grated carrot and beets<br />
Tofu or tempeh<br />
Cashew or chickpea hummus<br />
Salad leaves<br />
Sprouts, seeds and nuts<br />
Directions<br />
Begin by generously covering the quinoa<br />
in cold water. Let sit for 12 hours at room<br />
temperature.<br />
Drain the quinoa and rinse.<br />
Place the quinoa, filtered water, greens,<br />
coconut oil, spring onions, salt and chilli<br />
in a blender.<br />
Blend until smooth.<br />
Pour the batter into a non reactive bowl<br />
and let sit at room temperature for at least<br />
6-12 hours. You will notice little bubbles<br />
appearing on the surface. This is perfectly<br />
fine, in fact this is part of the fermentation<br />
process. This stage will help be kind on<br />
your gut.<br />
When ready to cook, place a medium<br />
sized fry pan over moderate heat.<br />
Add a little coconut oil and ladle or<br />
measure about ¼ cup, gently smooth out<br />
the crepe so it is a circle 12-15cm diameter.<br />
Cook for 3 minutes or until you see the<br />
crepe change colour, flip and cook the<br />
other side for 2 minutes more. Remove and<br />
repeat until the crepes are all cooked.<br />
You can eat these with a filling and roll<br />
up and enjoy, you can use as you would<br />
bread and scoop up dips etc. I like to have<br />
many tasty bowls of ingredients laden over<br />
the table and place the crepes around so<br />
you can assemble your own.

Risingholme Community Centre<br />
sticking to their roots with new<br />
brand “Risingholme Learning”<br />
We are pleased to announce that Risingholme<br />
Community Centre is now trading as<br />
Risingholme Learning. The rebrand includes a<br />
rollout of a new logo and a new website.<br />
Our new brand pays homage to the last 75+<br />
years, the present and is a `nod to the future’.<br />
The rebrand highlights Risingholme’s focus on<br />
the importance of lifelong learning.<br />
For over 75 years Risingholme Learning has<br />
operated under the same roof, with the same<br />
goals and values: to promote community spirit<br />
through face-to-face adult education.<br />
Although the centre has officially rebranded<br />
from `Risingholme Community Centre’<br />
to ‘Risingholme Learning’ Director Lynda<br />
Megson, wants to ensure the message is still the<br />
same.<br />
“We’ve been running for over 75 years and<br />
plan to run for another 75+ years” Megson says.<br />
“We are continuing to provide the<br />
community opportunities to gain new skills,<br />
knowledge and experiences by providing a wide<br />
range of exciting courses at different locations<br />
across the city. Every term, we have over 800<br />
enrolments, so the demand for learning new<br />
things is a priority for many” Megson says.<br />
“The Risingholme homestead and park in<br />
Opawa is still our base and so acknowledges<br />
our history. We have kept our green colour<br />
and the ‘R’ of our name to reflect the park and<br />
previous branding and are using one of our<br />
park’s trees to better reflect our mission. Our<br />
own ‘tree of life’ represents the relationships<br />
we nurture with our communities: growth,<br />
learning, connections, enjoyment, and strength,<br />
all held within the maturity of our 75+ years<br />
of operation. We believe our rebrand is a fresh<br />
way of communicating this” Megson says.<br />
With term 4 fast approaching, it’s the perfect<br />
time to check out our new website and see the<br />
amazing variety of courses.<br />
Most of Risingholme Learning courses<br />
start the week of Monday 17 October <strong>2022</strong>.<br />
Check individual course starting dates on the<br />
website.<br />
