Museum’s 

amazing 

new look 

As Canterbury Museum’s 

redevelopment looms, 

the empty building on 

Rolleston Ave has been 

filled with five floors of 

urban art – and surprises 

around every corner. 

There’s art on the walls, the 

ceilings, the galleries, the 

corridors, the offices, and 

the storerooms.

Facilitator 

sought to 

run hall as 

arts hub 

A COMMUNITY group is 

needed to steer the future of New 

Brighton’s Roy Stokes Hall as an 

arts, culture and entertainment 

hub. 

City council agency ChristchurchNZ 

is now calling for interest 

in the stewardship and management 

of the hall for community 

use. Interested parties can search 

for the listing in the Government 

Electronic Tender Service (GETS) 

under the number 26920161, or by 

searching “Roy Stokes Hall, New 

Brighton”. 

ChristchurchNZ 

general 

manager urban 

development 

Cath Carter said 

the successful 

group will bring 

a focus on the 

local community Cath Carter 

and experience 

in looking after shared spaces. 

“New Brighton’s revitalisation is 

really taking off, boosted by public 

projects like He Puna Taimoana 

and the beachside playground. 

There are also some major housing 

developments under way and 

we’re continuing to support local 

businesses to improve the commercial 

area around the mall and 

bring more people to the seaside 

suburb,” she said. 

“The Roy Stokes Hall sits on the 

former New Brighton School land, 

part of which will soon be home 

to a new residential development.”

GREAT SUMMER READS AT TAKENOTE FERRYMEAD 

Spare By Prince Harry, duke of Sussex 

It was one of the most searing images of the twentieth century: two young boys, two 

princes, walking behind their mother’s coffin as the world watched in sorrow - and 

horror. As Diana, Princess of Wales, was laid to rest, billions wondered what the princes 

must be thinking and feeling - and how their lives would play out from that point on. For 

Harry, this is that story at last. With its raw, unflinching honesty, Spare is a landmark 

publication full of insight, revelation, self-examination, and hard-won wisdom about 

the eternal power of love over grief. Prince Harry wishes to support British charities with 

donations from his proceeds from Spare. The Duke of Sussex has donated $1,500,000 

to Sentebale, an organisation he founded with Prince Seeiso in their mothers’ legacies, 

which supports vulnerable children and young people in Lesotho and Botswana affected 

by HIV/AIDS. Prince Harry will also donate to the non-profit organisation WellChild in the 

amount of £300,000.

TAKE A TOUR: The Parkhouse Rd 

EcoSort will be open to the public on 

Saturday from 9am-1pm. 

Open day to lift 

the lid on recycling plant 

THE CITY’S recycling facility 

will be opened up to the public 

for the first time since 2020. 

The Parkhouse Rd facility in 

Sockburn, which is normally 

closed to the public, will open its 

doors on Saturday from 9am to 

1pm. 

The open day will offer 

people an opportunity to view 

EcoSort’s recent $16.8 million 

facility upgrade, get up close to a 

recycling truck, and learn about 

what happens to their recycling 

once it’s collected. 

There will also be prizes to win 

throughout the event. 

“It’s a fantastic opportunity 

for people to learn more about 

what happens to the clean 

cardboard, paper, metal cans, 

glass bottles and plastic bottles 

and containers they put out for 

recycling and to understand how 

the recycling process works,’’ 

said city council resource 

recovery manager Ross Trotter. 

“The EcoSort can process up to 

25 tonnes of yellow bin contents 

an hour. That’s the equivalent of 

PHOTO: NEWSLINE 

about 2750 full bins.” 

Trotter said the open day also 

aimed to remind residents about 

the importance of putting the 

right items in their yellow bins. 

“Our local and overseas 

markets, who buy our recycling 

product, have very high 

standards. We need clean, highquality 

recyclable material to 

on-sell to these markets. 

“We’ve all got a part to play in 

allowing Christchurch to recycle. 

“By putting the right quality 

items in your yellow bin 

collection, you are helping 

us collect a good standard of 

material that can be successfully 

on-sold.” 

The city council will co-host 

the open day with EcoCentral, 

which operates the facility, the 

EcoShop on Blenheim Rd and 3 

EcoDrops where the recycling 

centres can be found 

Entry to the open day will be 

free with parking available on 

Michelle Rd. Limited on-site 

parking is available for mobility 

permit-holders. 

Hub part of 

revitalisation 

efforts 

• From page 1 

Said Carter: “We’re now looking 

for a group or organisation to 

step forward to run the hall and 

make sure it can be retained as 

a community arts, culture and 

entertainment hub.” 

Life in Vacant Spaces piloted 

a creative hub in the space over 

the past 12 months to test the 

concept and increase the number 

of people using the hall. This has 

included some upgrades to it. 

Criteria has been set for groups 

making a proposal to steer the 

hub – a community-led hub that 

supports local arts, community 

groups and events, ongoing 

shared use and availability to 

the community, and governance 

experience to ensure sustainable 

operation and maintenance.

PLAN: The city council is seeking feedback on its proposed Avon Park 

redevelopment. 

PHOTO: NEWSLINE 

Feedback sought 

on park revamp 

ANOTHER CORNER of the Ōtākaro 

Avon River Corridor is a step closer 

to being transformed, with public 

consultation to redevelop Avon Park 

under way. 

The city council is seeking feedback on 

its plans to turn Avon Park’s lower terrace 

into a naturalised wetland, upgrade the 

playground facilities and allow space for 

the City to Sea Pathway to run through 

the park. It is also looking to formally 

stop Avonside Drive between Kerrs Rd 

and Wainoni Rd. 

Said city council 

head of parks Andrew 

Rutledge: “Our proposed 

changes to the Avon Park 

could see the lower terrace 

transformed to an 

ecologically restored wetland, 

and with improved 

Andrew 

Rutledge 

play and recreational 

facilities installed on the 

higher ground. The City 

to Sea Pathway will run 

through the heart of the park.” 

He also said: “We’re grateful to the 

Christchurch Earthquake Appeal Trust, 

who are funding the upper terrace portion 

of this proposed work.” 

As part of the work, the western section 

of Avonside Drive bordering Avon Park 

will be shut and become wetland. The 

city council is also considering formally

stopping Avonside Drive between Kerrs 

Rd and Wainoni Rd in the future, and 

changing the section of road between 144 

Kerrs Rd and Kerrs Reach into a parks’ 

access road. 

“Stopping and eventually closing this 

eastern section of Avonside Drive could 

improve the safety of recreational users 

in the OARC, as well as making provisions 

to ecologically restore that area in 

the future, but we want to hear people’s 

thoughts on this before we proceed with 

the formal road-stopping process,” Rutledge 

said. 

“Staff traffic reports that were completed 

in 2021 showed that while Avonside 

Drive daily traffic flow is at the lower end 

of the range, the average vehicle speeds 

are high. This is mostly due to the fact the 

road looks like a rural road, but the high 

speeds are concerning and pose a safety 

risk to other users of the OARC. 

“Closing this section of Avonside Drive 

would slightly increase the daily number 

of vehicles using the surrounding minor 

arterial roads, but they will remain 

within the average traffic volume range.” 

Construction of the area is expected to 

start next summer, and is estimated to be 

completed by mid 2025.

Summer is not without its perils for your favourite 

family furries. Every summer we see a high proportion 

of the same cases coming in so I thought I’d mention 

a few. 

Barley grass seeds are particularly nasty, especially 

for dogs. They usually enter from the paws but can 

weave their way into any part of the dogs coat, then 

they penetrate the skin and just keep tracking. We 

have surgically removed barley grass seeds from 

the abdomen, bladder and one caused an abscess 

underneath the spine. It is common also for Dr Steve 

Heap to remove them from eyes ( 

conjunctival sac). 

Early detection is 

the key. Thoroughly 

check your dog all 

over after exercise. 

Most dogs will 

excessively lick the 

area of grass seed 

penetration, may be 

lame and often you 

can see a point of 

entry. A grass seed 

in the eye will cause 

intense pain, spillage 

of tears, and a red eye 

that is partially closed. 

This is an emergency 

and your pet should

sac of this cat. 

Spaniels “ love” 

getting ear 

infections in 

summer 

be seen by a veterinarian as soon as possible. 

Another cause for vet visits are ear infections ( Otitis externa). These are complex, usually 

involve both ears and are painful. Typically pets will present for head shaking, scratching, 

a foul odour and hot painful ears. Sometimes wax or a discharge is seen in the ear canals. 

The most common causes of otitis externa are ear mites, food or environmental allergens, 

Grass seed foreign bodies, bacterial or yeast infections and endocrine disease. The most 

important step is to be able to examine both ear canals and especially view the tympanic 

membrane ( ear drum) as this allows a treatment protocol to be worked out. We will then 

perform ear cytology to see what infectious agents we are dealing with. More often 

dogs need to be sedated to allow a thorough gentle clean to allow ear treatments the 

best shot at working. Plus assessment is crucial in removing foreign objects, checking 

for tumors/polyps and making sure the middle ear isn’t involved. Over represented 

dogs are Spaniels and Retrievers - with there large hairy drooping ears they create the 

right environment for nasties to grow. Many dogs need weekly ear cleaning during the 

summer months and used after a swim in a dirty pond to prevent issues. 

Flea or mosquito bite allergic facial dermatitis in cats can also be commonly seen too in 

summer. These cats are usually very itchy and self mutilate themselves, with the nose 

and the ear tips being targeted most. The lesions are often devoid of hair, ulcerated, red, 

infected and swelling is seen. Secondary infections then follow due to the disruption 

of the skin barrier, allowing water loss and the penetration of infectious organisms. We 

typically treat these with antibiotics, pain relief and anti inflammatories, plus effective flea 

control. 

Many older dogs suffer from Acquired Laryngeal Paralysis. It is more common in large 

breed dogs over 9 years of age, with the Labrador being over represented. Symptoms are 

worse in the summer months for these affected dogs. 

Clinically these dogs will present with many symptoms, depending on the severity of the 

disease. 

Commonly seen signs are changes in the bark, difficulty breathing, coughing, non stop 

panting, regurgitation, exercise and heat intolerance and sometimes collapse. Many of 

these dogs also suffer from ataxia and weakness in the hindlegs, with knuckling of the 

paws seen when tired. This is because dogs with Laryngeal paralysis often suffer from 

generalised “ Neuromuscular Disease”. This is often referred to as Geriatric Onset Laryngeal 

Paralysis and Polyneuropathy.( GOLPP) 

Conservative treatment options include walking these dogs in a harness, keeping them 

cool and in a well ventilated environment, not overheating them and short exercise 

activity when its cooler. Sometimes medications are 

given to help the cough and calm them down if they are 

anxious and restless. Surgery is an option for those dogs 

with severe respiratory signs that are unresponsive to 

conservative treatment. 

Our darling Lola has GOLPP but is well managed 

conservatively. She can still exercise for an hour a day but 

I avoid the hotter parts of the day. She loves swimming 

but Im careful where I take her as she can regurgitate up 

excess water swallowed. I elevate her food and am careful 

what I feed her. She’s not currently on medications. 

All in all for a 13.5 year old cancer survivor, she’s doing 

awesome.

GOING PLACES: Jacob Neale (far left) and Jayden Potts 

have been named in the Junior Black Sox world cup 

squad after being named MVPs of the U19 national 

championships last month. Six Canterbury players have 

been named in the squad. 

Canty players selected for world cups 

• By Jaime Cunningham 

FIFTEEN AGE-group 

Canterbury softballers have 

made three world cup squads for 

tournaments taking place this 

year. 

In the Major Sox (U23) team, 

Liam Potts, Josh Lubiejewski, 

and Caleb Stewart will play at 

the first world cup at this age 

level in Argentina in April, in a 

team dominated by Auckland 

players. Selectors have gone for 

the same 16 players as last October, 

before the tournament was 

postponed. 

Said co-coach Steven Deans: 

“This group (has) worked hard 

both on and off the diamond and 

have done everything asked to 

get the team in the best possible 

shape to perform at the World 

Cup.” 

After winning the U19 national 

championships last month, 

Canterbury have the most representatives 

in the Junior Black Sox 

squad heading to this year’s U18 

World Cup. 

The tournament’s most valuable 

players, Jacob Neale and 

Jayden Potts, were named alongside 

teammates Hapene Kumeroa, 

Connor Stanley, Fletcher Due 

and Hunter Simpson. Former 

Black Sox captain Jarrad Martin 

will again coach the junior side. 

Three of the 19-man squad will 

be named as non-travelling reserves 

ahead of the tournament, 

with the dates and location of 

the U18 World Cup yet to be 

confirmed. 

It’s an exciting year for women’s 

development in the sport, 

with the inaugural U15 World 

Cup set to be held in Tokyo, 

Japan, in October. 

Bella Folesi, Jade Croskery, 

Hannah Jones, Aimee Goodmanson 

and Jorja Simpson will 

assemble with other players 

for two days of training before 

taking part in Auckland’s Easter 

Classic in April, in a bid to impress 

selectors and be named in 

the final world cup squad. 

Softball Canterbury 

development manager Anthea 

Stringer will be leading the team 

for a fifth year.
