Beachside apartments on hold 

but car parking still an issue 

• By Natalie Pham 

THERE ARE concerns a planned 

medium-density housing 

development could exacerbate 

parking issues in North Beach. 

The Williams Corporation 

medium density units on Marine 

Pde – opposite the North Beach 

Surf Lifesaving Club and the 

North New Brighton 

Community Centre 

– are on hold, but the 

residents’ association 

and surf lifesaving 

club will keep battling 

authorities until car 

park issues are resolved. 

The residents’ 

association and surf life 

saving club fear their 

car parks will be used by unit 

residents and their visitors. 

Under new Government 

rules developments like the 

Williams one are only required 

to provide car parks designed 

and marked for use by persons 

with a disability or with limited 

mobility. 

The Government has said the 

intention was to increase housing 

developments in higher density 

areas, particularly housing close 

to public transport. 

But residents’ association cochair 

Philip Ridge said this would 

have a major impact on it and the 

surf club’s car parking. 

On a weekday morning, the car 

park adjoining the North Beach 

Surf Lifesaving Club and the 

Philip 

Ridge 

North New Brighton Community 

Centre could be full, Ridge said. 

He said on busy days, people 

have to walk a block in order to 

get to the beach. 

“The car park at North Beach is 

already at capacity. We’ve already 

identified this as a problem about 

18 months ago,” Ridge said. 

At the latest Waitai Coastal- 

Burwood-Linwood 

Community Board meeting, 

the residents’ association and 

the surf life saving club jointly 

requested the community 

board did not issue resource 

consent for the development 

until off-street parking is 

provided. 

Said Ridge: “If you don’t 

provide off-street parking 

then you’ve got to have the 

infrastructure in place. 

“This is New Brighton. We 

don’t have a public transport 

infrastructure, a bus might come 

once an hour. So if you live here, 

you need a car.” 

In 2020, Te Manatū Waka 

Ministry of Transport revealed 

there were 920 light vehicles 

for every 1000 people in 

Canterbury. 

Even though Williams has put 

the resource consent application 

for the units on hold, Ridge 

said: “We’ll be continuing to 

pursue our objections to any 

development on that site that 

does not provide off-street 

parking.” 

SHORTAGE: North Beach Residents’ Association co-chair Philip Ridge said car 

parking near the surf lifesaving club was already at capacity and could worsen if a 

new residential development with no-off street parking goes ahead. 

Surely five weeks is way too 

early to be worrying about 

Christmas deadlines

Push to lower speed limit outside college 

• By Natalie Pham 

THE SPEED limit of a busy road 

in Linwood could be lowered to 

improve safety. 

Te Aratai College principal 

Richard 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 

Richard 

Edmundson 

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.’’ 

While the speeding issue has 

MEDIAN: Traffic on Aldwins Rd, outside Te Aratai College. 

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 

PHOTO: STAR NEWS 

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.”

Chisnallwood 

fights ministry’s 

plan to reduce roll 

THE FIGHT OVER the Ministry of 

Education’s plan to slash the roll of a 

Christchurch school continues. 

Chisnallwood Intermediate principal 

Justin Fields said the school has been 

putting together a submission in recent 

weeks. 

“We’re putting a case forward for the 

reasons why the roll shouldn’t be slashed 

to 400.” 

While Fields could not detail the submission, 

he said parts of it were based on a 

disagreement with a ministry report. 

Fields said the school has received support 

from Burwood Ward city councillor 

Kelly Barber, Coastal Ward city councillor 

Celeste Donovan, and Mayor Phil Mauger. 

The decision to reduce the student intake 

at the school from 664 to 400 within 

two years came after the ministry report, 

which found the majority of students live 

in the zones of the neighbouring 

schools. 

In March 2022, 493 students at the 

school were out-of-zone enrolments. 

Said Christchurch East MP Hon Poto 

Williams: “The roll is being reduced to 

ensure a sustainable network of schools 

that provides quality education for all 

students.” 

Shirley Intermediate School, Haeata 

Community Campus, Parkview Pārua 

School and South New Brighton School 

are expected to have sufficient space for 

students if Chisnallwood reduces its roll. 

Additional capacity is also planned for 

Rāwhiti School and Te Aratai College in 

the short-term and Queenspark School 

in the long-term outlook for roll growth 

funding. 

Other options in the report, including 

a capacity of 500 or 700 students, were 

declined. 

This was not the first time Chisnallwood 

Intermediate has had to fight a 

ministry decision. 

In 2012, then Education Minister 

Hekia Parata announced plans to merge 

the school with Aranui High School. 

However, the decision was overturned the 

following year. 

In a letter sent to the 

Ministry of Education and 

Poto Williams on October 7, 

Barber said the roll reduction 

was very short-sighted. 

Kelly 

Barber 

“The area around Chisnallwood 

provides potential for 

affordable housing, and the 

new housing intensification 

rules, it is highly likely that there will be a 

growth in housing in East Christchurch. 

“The key word here is choice – parents 

sending their children to Chisnallwood 

currently have the choice to do this. If the 

roll is reduced, then this choice will be lost 

for many families in the wider school area.” 

Barber also said many families have two 

generations of children who have attended 

the school. 

“For many families, it has not been their 

choice to live out of the small enrolment 

scheme home zone. They were displaced 

by the earthquakes but choose to come 

back to the area to send their children to 

Chisnallwood because they are still part 

of this community.” 

In response to Barber’s letter, Associate 

Minister of Education Jan Tinetti said 

siblings of current and former students 

will have priority access to any out-ofzone 

places.

“A local team for local people” 

I want to introduce you all to the newest 

member of the McMaster & Heap Family, a five 

month old red Mandalay kitten who I fell about 

by accident really. 

He’s truly a stunner – confident, playful, so 

sweet yet mischievious. He’s well and truly 

firmly found his place in our home and the 

other pets adore him. 

Recently he got 

into a little bit 

of trouble, and 

chewed up some 

of my hair from 

the shower. I 

was away visiting 

our son Dylan in 

Houston and he 

must have missed 

me so much. He 

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.

Haeata Services Program Adventure 

Challenge 2022 

Written by Staff Waaka 

Over the year the Services Program at Haeata has participated in camps and courses at Burnham 

military Camp, and the surrounding areas of Canterbury, and under the watchful eyes of the New 

Zealand Defence forces Youth Development Unit (South) and school staff. 

The team has worked on self discipline, mental and physical wellbeing and setting high standards to 

achieve what they set their minds to, the last camp of the year with the military is the coast to coast 

however with the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth 2 and New Zealand observing a day of 

mourning on the 26th September, we were forced to adopt plan B. 

Plan A is the coast to coast for the South Island Academies, however with one day down of the 

week, we had to go to plan B which was 24 tasks in 24 hours, each task was between one hour to 

40 minutes long with travelling in between, all participants did not have a chance to sleep during 

the 24 hours, with activities such as the beep test, the confidence course, and navigation by day and 

night, radio operation just naming a few. 

The three south island academies Aurora college from Invercargill, Mawhera from Greymouth high 

school and Haeata Community Campus, totalling thirty students and four directing staff members 

from their respectful schools, and 15 military members made a large group for safety and direction 

for our ākonga (students). 

We arrived at Burnham military camp on Tuesday 27th September, ready for the challenges, set up 

our camp for the night, and after dinner went to sleep not knowing what task would be our first, 

however we were woken to our first task a fire drill at midnight, and after 23 hours we finished a 

lot tired but extremely proud of their achievements. 

A well deserved sleep followed for all of us, and with a small sleep in as well, we headed to easier 

tasks, to Canterbury adventure park to test our confidence and test our courage by ziplining was an 

awesome way to see the Port hills up close, by flying over them. 

By Thursday afternoon the school staff members and platoon commander had to meet to find 

out what academy performed the best, however neither academy could be faulted on discipline, 

resilience, guts and participating throughout the event, with all points tallied and behaviours 

scrutinised, and with no clear winner all three academies won. 

Haeata Community Campus did well, but we will challenge again next year and work harder to 

bring the trophy home next year. 

Hospitality @ Haeata 

Written by Nicki K 

How exciting that we are in term four already and I look forward 

to another action-packed term. 

Term 3 was filled with some incredible catering opportunities. 

Our senior hospitality students certainly rose to the challenge. 

Personally, I relish, and will grab any opportunity for my akonga 

to experience working to a timeframe and with real customers as 

these are authentic assessment opportunities. It fills me with such 

pride when I see how organised they are, and how well they work 

together as a team, and it is evident that they have the potential 

to excel in any hospitality employment. 

They made gourmet ciabatta sandwiches with honey baked 

ham, salad and gruyere for 250 . My senior students moved like 

clockwork and the task was completed in record time. Not only 

that, the sandwiches were so tasty and professional that, on the 

next occasion, the numbers were increased to 500 to cater for 

the National Kapa Haka competition. 

An opportunity to be assessed arose when ERO visited the 

Campus. They enjoyed a sumptuous lunch of steak casserole with 

grain mustard mash, chicken tenderloin poached with sweet chilli 

and orange over fragrant jasmine rice, all served with a selection of seasonal veggies. Followed by 

sticky date pudding or rooibos poached pears. Needless to say, the food was outstanding, as were 

the compliments! 

Another highlight was catering for the drama show “This is Me”, and it was so commendable how 

only three students managed to serve a two course dinner so professionally to a “restaurant of 60 

diners.” 

It fills me with immense pride to see how the students are coping with the demands of the 

Hospitality course, and how many Level One and Level Two credits are gained along the way. 

There certainly are some fine young chefs being created, nurtured, and encouraged in the kitchens 

at Haeata. 

The juniors students too have been equally impressive with their creations of breakfast burritos, 

pizzas, banana nutella rolls, mexican wraps, apple crumble, banana crepes, cheese scones, afghans, 

and chocolate chip cookies….to name but a few! 

It’s always so exciting to watch their skills and confidence grow and I can’t wait to follow their 

progression into senior school. 

Autaia: Haka Theatre 

Dame Kiri Te Kanawa Theatre 

Written by Juanita Asi 

On the 29th of September 2022 a group of Kōmanawa ākonga were very fortunate to attend the 

Autaia Haka held at Dame Kiri Te Kanawa Theatre, Auckland. On arrival we were greeted by the 

mass of supporters who came to support all the participating kura. 

We were very lucky to watch 7 kura from Auckland share their stories of Atua Māori, The 

struggles rangatahi Māori are facing in this day in age, Identifying as a rangatahi Māori in a suburban 

area and pūrākau Māori. All these beautiful pūrākau made you feel inspired, sad, it made you cry 

and with the roaring sounds of haka through the aisles of the theatre it made your heart skip a 

beat and jump up off your seats but most of all it made you feel proud. All the beautiful acts were 

shared through whakaari(acting), waiata, haka, mau rākau and many more whilst filling the theatre 

with Te Reo Māori. 

When we asked our ākonga what were their whakaaro (thoughts) about Autaia they had the 

following to say: 

Navaeh “Autaia inspired me to build my confidence in speaking Te Reo Māori and getting on the 

stage to help others build their confidence too to get on stage to do haka” 

Wilson: “Watching the boys do the haka made me want to be like that and haka like them as 

well” 

Savannah “My highlight of Autaia was all of it! The creativity, All the Te Reo Māori that was spoken 

and not being able to understand it. Seeing others laugh made me want to learn Te Reo Māori” 

Zodie “The show inspired me to learn Te Reo Māori because not everyone gets to learn it” 

When asked how could we implement something like Autaia in our show Nōu te kō Haeata ki te 

ao production as a collective you all said and agreed that we as rangatahi would love to “showcase 

the struggles that we are facing as rangatahi Māori living in Aranui and what it is to be Māori and be 

proud”. 

Our Kōmanawa ākonga not only represented Kōmanawa well but also represented Haeata as a 

whole amongst the many Kura Māori, Kura Kaupapa Māori and Kura tuarua that were all present. 

Nā reira e ōku rangatira o āpōpō nei a māua ko Kōkā Theresa e mihi ana ki a koutou katoa. Nō 

māua kē te honore ki te tari i a koutou ki Tamaki Makaurau kite ai i ngā rangatahi māori pērā i a 

koutou e tū pakari ana ki te atamira. Kāore e kore nā tēnei wheako i whakahihiko i whakaoho anō 

hoki ō koutou wairua i o koutou mauri hoki. Nā reira e pīki mihi atu ana ki a koutou katoa. 

He toa takitini tātou!
