‘Garden to plate’ community<br />

project ready for handover<br />

A NEW garden in St Albans will<br />

be handed to the community to<br />

care for and enjoy at a celebration<br />

event tomorrow.<br />

Mairehau Community<br />

Garden was designed with the<br />

community, led by The Green<br />

Lab and Neighbourhood Trust<br />

with “a garden to plate” vision<br />

driving the design.<br />

Said NHT community<br />

development worker Don<br />

Benn: “This garden is a place<br />

for connection, for building<br />

relationships with others in<br />

the community, for gaining<br />

skills in gardening, in cooking<br />

in season, and in preserving and<br />

bottling food, when we have<br />

excess.”<br />

The garden will feature a<br />

polytunnel, covered seating<br />

area, raised beds, composting<br />

station and pollinator-friendly<br />

planting.<br />

Artists Storm and Cara Waiwai<br />

also created a mural for the onsite<br />

container.<br />

A donation of $10,000 from<br />

Hummingbird Coffee was used<br />

to help assist with labour costs,<br />

buying plants, and installing a<br />

mains water supply.<br />

Construction works started<br />

in May after the final plan was<br />

signed off by the Community<br />

Steering Committee and the<br />

Neighbourhood Trust in late<br />

March this year.<br />

Many volunteers were involved<br />

in the building process, with<br />

one working bee saw 18m3 of fill<br />

moved in less than two hours by<br />

a group of 17.<br />

The Green Lab build lead Tom<br />

Phillpotts said he did not expect<br />

to get the works done so fast.<br />

REPAIR CAFE: Woolston Community Library will be the first stop for The Repair Roadshow, which is a year-long project of Ōtautahi Repair Revolution to<br />

help community hubs set up their own repair events.<br />

Team repairing broken items hits the road<br />

• By Natalie Pham<br />

BROKEN possessions can now<br />

get a fresh start at the first repair<br />

event.<br />

Woolston Community<br />

Library will be the first stop of<br />

‘The Repair Roadshow’, which<br />

is a year-long project to help<br />

community hubs around the city<br />

set up their own repair event.<br />

Ōtautahi Repair Revolution<br />

founder Zac Imhoof said the<br />

idea was prompted after a<br />

conversation with Michael<br />

Reynolds, a Woolston resident<br />

who is behind the community<br />

space Roimata Food Commons<br />

in Radley Park.<br />

Said Imhoof: “This event will<br />

be the first and hopefully we<br />

can gather enough volunteers<br />

from the area that would like to<br />

maintain it.”<br />

He encouraged residents to<br />

hold onto broken belongings<br />

and bring them to the event, no<br />

matter how odd they were.<br />

Imhoof said volunteers have<br />

fixed many things, including<br />

toys, electronic gadgets, and<br />

anything that has a battery or a<br />

plug.<br />

He still remembers the time<br />

he received a $10 donation after<br />

fixing a ukelele for a five-yearold<br />

girl at a repair cafe.<br />

“There was a big smile on<br />

her face. So it was something<br />

very special to myself and<br />

other volunteers who have had<br />

situations like that all the time,”<br />

Imhoof said.<br />

“Whether you’re a volunteer<br />

or guest, it’s the interaction that<br />

makes events like this special.”<br />

Imhoof started the Ōtautahi<br />

Repair Revolution last year, with<br />

a goal of creating a world where<br />

people do not buy or throw their<br />

belongings away unconsciously.<br />

The first event started as<br />

a trial before becoming a<br />

monthly session at Richmond<br />

Community Garden. Since then,<br />

it has had a large database of<br />

volunteers with different levels of<br />

experience.<br />

But, Imhoof said more<br />

volunteers are always needed.<br />

They are also prompted to bring<br />

their own project to repairing<br />

sessions.<br />

“It’s basically an event to bring<br />

people together to repair. We do<br />

ask for donations if people can,<br />

otherwise we get funding from<br />

the city council.”<br />

Repair Roadshow at Woolston<br />

Community Library will start at<br />

2pm on <strong>November</strong> 12.<br />

Jayne and I would like to thank you for the work you’ve done to get us where<br />

we are today. Bit of a blur really. Every step in the process has gone into<br />

achieving the result today that exceeded our expectations. The detail and<br />

professionalism has been on point. Staging, photography, the video along<br />

with the marketing campaign all leading to a great property to present to<br />

the market. These aspects all set the scene perfectly for the open homes and<br />

visits leading to today’s outstanding auction result. Quiet night tonight but<br />

sure there will be a few celebratory drinks later in the week.<br />

Experienced<br />

gardeners<br />

sharing skills<br />

•From page 1<br />

“The commitment of<br />

volunteers to this project has<br />

been awesome. Paul, John, Storm,<br />

and Bill have been on site almost<br />

every week.<br />

“John even hired a digger<br />

out of his own pocket at one<br />

point to help get things moving<br />

quickly.”<br />

The landscape design was<br />

carried out in collaboration<br />

with stakeholders and Gather<br />

Landscape Architecture.<br />

The Green Lab director Khye<br />

Hitchcock said the feedback was<br />

clear at the outset.<br />

“The community wanted a<br />

welcoming space that would<br />

provide hands-on learning<br />

experiences.<br />

“There are definitely some<br />

experienced gardeners in the<br />

community who wish to share<br />

their skills with others, which<br />

is wonderful. The final design<br />

reflects this. The polytunnel will<br />

allow for year-round activities.<br />

We’re hoping lots of different<br />

groups can come and learn about<br />

growing kai here.”<br />

The project also received<br />

support from a number of<br />

community-minded partners,<br />

including the city council,<br />

Hummingbird Coffee, Richmond<br />

Community Garden, and<br />

Canterbury Community Gardens<br />

Association.<br />

Police station set to reopen<br />

• By Tina Grumball<br />

THE HORNBY Police Station is<br />

set to reopen, just not as soon as<br />

expected.<br />

Residents will have to wait until<br />

late <strong>November</strong> for the precinct<br />

to reopen, after it was temporarily<br />

closed in February.<br />

In August, the Greater Hornby<br />

Residents Association was told<br />

the station had closed because a<br />

previous front desk staff member<br />

had been transferred to Rolleston<br />

and the replacement, who had<br />

been trained up, had decided to<br />

leave.<br />

A closed “until further notice”<br />

sign hung on the station door,<br />

telling people to call ahead in<br />

case of “unforseen closures”<br />

and directing them to go to<br />

the central station 16 minutes<br />

away.<br />

Sergeant Logan Straton, in his<br />

reply to the GHRA, said a second<br />

recruitment drive closed in<br />

August and the aim was to have<br />

the station open in eight weeks,<br />

which would have been about<br />

October 17.<br />

A police spokesperson told<br />

Western <strong>News</strong> the public counter<br />

where people can actively enter<br />

the building and make a written<br />

complaint or statement will be<br />

open 9am-4pm from late <strong>November</strong>,<br />

and will be manned by a<br />

constable at the desk.<br />

At the moment, staff are working<br />

from the station regularly,<br />

but they are not front<br />

counter staff.<br />

“They handle serious<br />

crashes, (SCU) highway<br />

patrol work, youth aid<br />

services, to name a few,<br />

and work in the community<br />

or out on the roads<br />

during some of their<br />

shifts but they are there<br />

to assist that constable in<br />

an emergency if need be,” they<br />

said.<br />

There is still a team of frontline<br />

Marc Duff<br />

constables who work the<br />

entire Christchurch metropolitan<br />

area and are<br />

available 24/7 through<br />

111.<br />

GHRA chairman Marc<br />

Duff said he had received<br />

feedback from residents<br />

that they were relieved<br />

the station was opening<br />

and it was “about time.”<br />

“I haven’t experienced it personally,<br />

but I think there’s a perception<br />

amongst the community<br />

Thursday <strong>November</strong> 3 <strong>2022</strong><br />

that crime is on the rise.”<br />

He noted the station reopening<br />

gave the community an<br />

opportunity to report criminal<br />

activity locally, as there was a<br />

worry in the past that people<br />

would not travel into town to<br />

report crime.<br />

“I think it will give us more<br />

accurate figures on the crime in<br />

our area, that people know the<br />

police station’s open in our area<br />

and they’ve got somewhere to<br />

report a lot more conveniently.”<br />

RAY WHITE PAPANUI NEWS<br />

Our View Of The Current Market<br />

Tracy Thomson Maria Paterson Eneka Burroughs<br />

1. What is your current view on<br />

the Christchurch market?<br />

It has gone back to a more<br />

balanced market. With fair<br />

prices still for buyers and sellers.<br />

Properties are taking a little<br />

longer to sell with average sale<br />

days now around 30 days. Still<br />

getting strong enquiry from<br />

out of Canterbury with buyers<br />

transferring their jobs and lives to<br />

Christchurch.<br />

2. Your top 3 tips for preparing<br />

your home for sale with<br />

maximum impact?<br />

• Clean and tidy, windows<br />

cleaned, lawns mowed.<br />

• De-clutter as much as possible.<br />

• High quality photos.<br />

3. Is there a right time of year to<br />

go to market?<br />

There is never a bad time to<br />

list your properties - even in<br />

the middle of winter or over<br />

the Christmas period people’s<br />

situations change and people are<br />

looking to move.<br />

1. What is your current view on<br />

the Christchurch market?<br />

I feel the market remains steady<br />

which is backed up by the latest<br />

REINZ stats just out that yes,<br />

the market has cooled slightly<br />

but certainly not crashed as<br />

the media would portray. The<br />

medium sale price in Christchurch<br />

is $685,000 which is an increase<br />

of 4.42% on last month! A total<br />

of 439 properties were sold in<br />

Christchurch last month and<br />

medium days on market is still<br />

steady at 35 days!<br />

2. Your top 3 tips for preparing<br />

your home for sale with<br />

maximum impact?<br />

Presentation is the key<br />

• Declutter as much as you<br />

possibly can - ask your friends<br />

or family if you can store some<br />

things in their garage.<br />

• A fresh coat of paint works<br />

wonders - keep it neutral.<br />

• A good garden tidy - the<br />

outdoors are just as important<br />

as the inside for presentation.<br />

3. Is there a right time of year to<br />

go to market?<br />

There are always buyers looking<br />

to purchase a home, regardless of<br />

the time of the year, traditionally<br />

spring and summer are always<br />

popular with warmer weather<br />

and gardens are at their best,<br />

however there is often more<br />

competition with more options<br />

for buyers to choose from. In the<br />

winter months there is far less<br />

competition and consequently<br />

some home owners often achieve<br />

premium prices.<br />

1. What is your current view on<br />

the Christchurch market?<br />

The current market is strong,<br />

we have plenty of first home<br />

buyers out and about, looking to<br />

purchase their first home. Now<br />

is a great time to convert rentals<br />

into cash.<br />

2. Your top 3 tips for preparing<br />

your home for sale with<br />

maximum impact?<br />

• Declutter - less is more.<br />

• Paint your doorstep as it is the<br />

first thing people see.<br />

• Fix all the little things that you<br />

can.<br />

3. Is there a right time of year to<br />

go to market?<br />

Spring and Summer allow us to<br />

show your home during different<br />

hours of the day. We then have<br />

the ability to do viewings after<br />

work while the sun is still up.<br />
