Push to lower speed
limit outside college
• By Natalie Pham
MEDIAN: Traffic on Aldwins Rd, outside Te Aratai College.
THE SPEED limit of a busy road
in Linwood could be lowered to
improve safety.
Te Aratai College principal
Dick Edmundson has been
approached by parents and students
throughout the year about
concerns of excessive speed on
Aldwins Rd.
Edmundson said it is not ideal
to have a 60km/h zone outside of a
school because the median speed
could well be higher than the
speed limit.
But the speed limit could now
be reduced to 30km/h during
school hours as part of the city
council’s Slow Speeds Neighbourhood
programme.
Residents are encouraged to
share their views on the planned
changes which would see speed
limits reduce from 50km/h to
40 and 30km/h on selected
streets.
Said Edmundson: “There’s
always been people driving fast
along Aldwins Rd whether it’s
50km/h or 60km/h. All through
the day because it’s such a busy
road,” Edmundson said.
While the speeding issue has
been here “forever,” he thinks
the increase of the speed limit to
60km/h has led to a rise in the
median speed.
There have been near misses
outside the school caused by a
number of factors, but Edmundson
said speed increases the risk.
“The single greatest fear
that any principal has is that
something will happen to the
students. It’s greater than NCEA
passes, it’s greater than how the
school musical is going to go.”
The public consultation for the
programme is open until January
3.
City council transport operations
manager Stephen Wright
said staff will make changes
to the plan and present their
recommendations to a hearings

panel.
“We anticipate this would
happen in February, with a
decision made by council in
March.”

New walking tracks at stormwater basin
PEOPLE WILL be able to enjoy
4km of new walking track when
the city council’s award-winning
stormwater basin in Hoon Hay
opens to the public tomorrow.
The stormwater basin is part
of a 109ha network of basins and
wetlands that the city council
has been working on in the upper
catchment of the Heathcote
River. The facility as a whole
has been named Te Kuru and
includes the Eastman Wetlands.
The city council is investing
more than $50 million in the
project and last month picked up
a national award for it.
City council
head of three
waters Helen
Beaumont said
this section of
the project is
now complete
and ready for
Helen
Beaumont
the public to
use. It has 4km
of walking track
and large areas of wetland and
native planting for people to
enjoy.
It will eventually link to
three other stormwater storage
and filtration basins that will
collectively be able to store more
than one million cubic metres
of floodwater in big rain events,
reducing the risk of flooding
downstream.
In total, the area will provide
around 14km of walking tracks,
TRAILS: Te Kuru and Eastman Wetlands have been completed and will be opened tomorrow.
cycle tracks and bridges, as well
as large swathes of native plantings.
About 110,000 trees and
600,000 native plants are going
in the ground as part of the
revegetation effort.
“Improving our floodplain
and stormwater management
was obviously the catalyst for
this project but a lot of effort has
gone into ensuring this area also
delivers long-term ecological and
recreational benefits for the city,’’
Beaumont said.
“When the stormwater basins
aren’t being used to store floodwater,
we want people to be able
to enjoy this area and for it to
be habitat for birds and other
wildlife, including lizards.
“Friday’s opening of Te Kuru is
a taste of what is in store for the
rest of this area. When the other
stormwater basins are completed,
this entire area will become a
recreational and ecological asset
for the city.”
The name Te Kuru ‘the blow
with the fist’ was recommended
to the city council by Ngāi
Tūāhuriri. Mana whenua have
historically used it to reference
the area.
PHOTO: NEWSLINE
• A public opening event
will be held at Te Kuru
tomorrow between 10.30am
and 12.30pm. The event is
an opportunity for people
to go along and learn more
about the area and the
wider project and to take a
walking tour of the site. The
best entry point to Te Kuru
is from the new car park
located at 600 Cashmere Rd.

Pupils make good use of new sheds
ADDINGTON TE Kura
Taumatua School pupils and
staff have been surprised with
generous gifts.
The school has received two
sheds for storing gardening
equipment and pupils’ wheels.
Teacher Lyn Petch said the
sheds from PlaceMakers could
not have arrived at a better
time.
Many students have been
riding their bikes, skateboards
and scooters around the field
since the playground makeover
was completed in May. But
it became a problem because
there was no available storage
space.
An additional 15 secondhand
skateboards, bikes and
scooters were also donated
by families to the school for
pupils who do not have their
own.
“Keeping them in the office
was not ideal, but fortunately
they fit perfectly into one of
the new sheds,” Petch said.
Gardening tools for the
school’s dedicated community
group that built the raised
garden area and its Green
Thumbs team will be stored in
the other shed.
The team consists of 15
pupils who work every Friday
lunchtime to maintain the native
and floral gardens.
At the moment, the gardens
have a wide range of vegetables
including beans, cabbage and

Said Petch: “I have around
30 students on and off
throughout the year with a
core group of around 15, but
only work with six to 12 on the
day to make it manageable.’’

started with a few
vomits, then had a
day of being back
to his sprinting pace,
gobbling up his
food and then another
major vomit directly in
front of Steve.
Steve bundled him
up and took him to
work. The joys of
having vets as parents.
Initial blood testing
and radiographs of
his abdomen were
normal, so Steve
placed him on
intravenous fluids and
gave him medication to prevent vomiting.
When he continued vomiting we asked
Richard Lucy to ultrasound his abdomen,
which proved highly suspicious for a linear
foreign body, stretching right through his
small intestines, causing the bowel to bunch
into a ball, which could have proven fatal.
Lynne our surgeon was on hand to swiftly
take the wee guy to surgery. He was a star
under anaesthetic and Steve could almost
catheterize him on his own. He was so
gentle and well behaved with needles.
Lynne removed from his small intestines a
wad of my hair and he’d also chewed part of
a kitchen scour scrubber!!! He was sutured up
and within an hour he was up walking around
, ready for his next adventure.
He’s an absolute delight but he’s going to
keep us all busy, picking up any potential
object lying around the house we think he
might grab at.
