Museum’s<br />
amazing<br />
new look<br />
As Canterbury Museum’s<br />
redevelopment looms,<br />
the empty building on<br />
Rolleston Ave has been<br />
filled with five floors of<br />
urban art – and surprises<br />
around every corner.<br />
There’s art on the walls, the<br />
ceilings, the galleries, the<br />
corridors, the offices, and<br />
the storerooms.<br />

Open day<br />
to lift lid on<br />
recycling<br />
plant<br />
THE CITY’S recycling facility<br />
will be opened up to the public for<br />
the first time since 2020.<br />
The Parkhouse Rd facility in<br />
Sockburn, which is normally<br />
closed to the public, will open its<br />
doors on Saturday from 9am-1pm.<br />
The open day will offer<br />
people an opportunity to view<br />
EcoSort’s recent $<strong>16</strong>.8 million<br />
facility upgrade, get up close to a<br />
recycling truck, and learn about<br />
what happens to their recycling<br />
once it’s collected.<br />
There will also be prizes to win<br />
throughout the event.<br />
“It’s a fantastic<br />
opportunity for<br />
people to learn<br />
more about what<br />
happens to the<br />
clean cardboard,<br />
paper, metal cans,<br />
glass bottles and<br />
plastic bottles<br />
and containers Ross Trotter<br />
they put out for<br />
recycling and to understand how<br />
the recycling process works,’’ said<br />
city council resource recovery<br />
manager Ross Trotter.<br />
“The EcoSort can process up to<br />
25 tonnes of yellow bin contents<br />
an hour. That’s the equivalent of<br />
about 2750 full bins.”<br />
Trotter said the open day also<br />
aimed to remind residents about<br />
the importance of putting the<br />
right items in their yellow bins.<br />
“Our local and overseas<br />
markets, who buy our recycling<br />
product, have very high<br />
standards,” he said.<br />

TWO LOCAL young people<br />
have been named in the top<br />
11 students in New Zealand,<br />
after winning premier awards<br />
in the 2022 NZQA scholarship<br />
examinations.<br />
Corin Simcock from St<br />
Andrew’s College and Shun<br />
Ting Khor from Burnside<br />
High School were told of their<br />
achievements this month.<br />
Corin gained an impressive<br />
seven New Zealand scholarships<br />
overall, with three at<br />
outstanding level in calculus,<br />
chemistry and technology. He<br />
also gained four scholarships as<br />
a Year 12 student in 2021.<br />
As a premier award winner,<br />
for three years of his tertiary<br />
studies he will receive an annual<br />
$10,000 scholarship.<br />
Sung Ting received<br />
outstanding scholarships in<br />
biology, calculus, chemistry<br />
and statistics, and scholarship<br />
in design and visual<br />
communication, english, and<br />
physics.<br />
St Andrew’s also had other<br />
successes. Tom Edwards (Year<br />
13 in 2022) won a top subject<br />
scholar award for receiving the<br />
top mark in New Zealand in<br />
digital technology. Overall, he<br />
gained seven scholarships with<br />
two at outstanding level.<br />
TALENTED: Luke Zhu (left), Tom Edwards, Corin Simcock<br />
and Toby Harvie achieved outstanding academic results.<br />
Tom and two other former<br />
Year 13 students, Luke Zhu<br />
(eight scholarships, one<br />
outstanding), and Toby<br />
Harvie (seven scholarships,<br />
one outstanding) also gained<br />
outstanding scholar awards,<br />
which placed them among<br />
the top 62 students in New<br />
Zealand.<br />
The academic talents of the<br />
four boys were already wellrecognised<br />
at St Andrew’s. In an<br />
unprecedented decision, three<br />
of them – Corin Simcock, Luke<br />
Zhu and Toby Harvie – were<br />
jointly awarded College Dux for<br />
2022, when it was impossible<br />
to choose one based on their<br />
academic results. Tom was the<br />
Proxime Accessit. The boys<br />
are friends as well as academic<br />
rivals, and also gained global<br />
success in 2022 as one of three<br />
winners of the International<br />
Mathematical Modelling<br />
Competition.<br />
Rector Christine Leighton<br />
said she is “incredibly proud” of<br />
the students’ achievements.<br />
This is the third time during<br />
the last 12 years a St Andrew’s<br />
student has won a Premier<br />
Award.<br />

GOING PLACES: Jacob Neale (left) and Jayden Potts have been named<br />
in the Junior Black Sox world cup squad after being named MVPs of the<br />
U19 national championships last month. Six Canterbury players have<br />
been named in the squad.<br />
Canty players make<br />
world cup squads<br />
• By Jaime Cunningham<br />
FIFTEEN AGE-group Canterbury<br />
softballers have made three world cup<br />
squads for tournaments taking place this<br />
year.<br />
In the Major Sox (U23) team, Liam<br />
Potts, Josh Lubiejewski, and Caleb Stewart<br />
will play at the first world cup at this<br />
age level in Argentina in April, in a team<br />
dominated by Auckland players. Selectors<br />
have gone for the same <strong>16</strong> players as<br />
last October, before the tournament was<br />
postponed.<br />
Said co-coach Steven Deans: “This<br />
group (has) worked hard both on and off<br />
the diamond and have done everything<br />
asked to get the team in the best possible<br />
shape to perform at the World Cup.”<br />
After winning the U19 national championships<br />
last month, Canterbury have<br />
the most representatives in the Junior<br />
Black Sox squad heading to this year’s<br />
U18 World Cup.<br />
The tournament’s most valuable players,<br />
Jacob Neale and Jayden Potts, were<br />
named alongside teammates Hapene<br />
Kumeroa, Connor Stanley, Fletcher Due<br />
and Hunter Simpson. Former Black Sox<br />
captain Jarrad Martin will again coach<br />
the junior side.<br />
Three of the 19-man squad will be<br />
named as non-travelling reserves ahead<br />
of the tournament, with the dates and<br />
location of the U18 World Cup yet to be<br />
confirmed.<br />
It’s an exciting year for women’s development<br />
in the sport, with the inaugural<br />
U15 World Cup set to be held in Tokyo,<br />
Japan, in October.<br />
Bella Folesi, Jade Croskery, Hannah<br />
Jones, Aimee Goodmanson and Jorja<br />

Summer is not without its perils for your favourite<br />
family furries. Every summer we see a high proportion<br />
of the same cases coming in so I thought I’d mention<br />
a few.<br />
Barley grass seeds are particularly nasty, especially<br />
for dogs. They usually enter from the paws but can<br />
weave their way into any part of the dogs coat, then<br />
they penetrate the skin and just keep tracking. We<br />
have surgically removed barley grass seeds from<br />
the abdomen, bladder and one caused an abscess<br />
underneath the spine. It is common also for Dr Steve<br />
Heap to remove them from eyes (<br />
conjunctival sac).<br />
Early detection is<br />
the key. Thoroughly<br />
check your dog all<br />
over after exercise.<br />
Most dogs will<br />
excessively lick the<br />
area of grass seed<br />
penetration, may be<br />
lame and often you<br />
can see a point of<br />
entry. A grass seed<br />
in the eye will cause<br />
intense pain, spillage<br />
of tears, and a red eye<br />
that is partially closed.<br />
This is an emergency<br />
and your pet should<br />

Spaniels “ love”<br />
getting ear<br />
infections in<br />
summer<br />
be seen by a veterinarian as soon as possible.<br />
Another cause for vet visits are ear infections ( Otitis externa). These are complex, usually<br />
involve both ears and are painful. Typically pets will present for head shaking, scratching,<br />
a foul odour and hot painful ears. Sometimes wax or a discharge is seen in the ear canals.<br />
The most common causes of otitis externa are ear mites, food or environmental allergens,<br />
Grass seed foreign bodies, bacterial or yeast infections and endocrine disease. The most<br />
important step is to be able to examine both ear canals and especially view the tympanic<br />
membrane ( ear drum) as this allows a treatment protocol to be worked out. We will then<br />
perform ear cytology to see what infectious agents we are dealing with. More often<br />
dogs need to be sedated to allow a thorough gentle clean to allow ear treatments the<br />
best shot at working. Plus assessment is crucial in removing foreign objects, checking<br />
for tumors/polyps and making sure the middle ear isn’t involved. Over represented<br />
dogs are Spaniels and Retrievers - with there large hairy drooping ears they create the<br />
right environment for nasties to grow. Many dogs need weekly ear cleaning during the<br />
summer months and used after a swim in a dirty pond to prevent issues.<br />
Flea or mosquito bite allergic facial dermatitis in cats can also be commonly seen too in<br />
summer. These cats are usually very itchy and self mutilate themselves, with the nose<br />
and the ear tips being targeted most. The lesions are often devoid of hair, ulcerated, red,<br />
infected and swelling is seen. Secondary infections then follow due to the disruption<br />
of the skin barrier, allowing water loss and the penetration of infectious organisms. We<br />
typically treat these with antibiotics, pain relief and anti inflammatories, plus effective flea<br />
control.<br />
Many older dogs suffer from Acquired Laryngeal Paralysis. It is more common in large<br />
breed dogs over 9 years of age, with the Labrador being over represented. Symptoms are<br />
worse in the summer months for these affected dogs.<br />
Clinically these dogs will present with many symptoms, depending on the severity of the<br />
disease.<br />
Commonly seen signs are changes in the bark, difficulty breathing, coughing, non stop<br />
panting, regurgitation, exercise and heat intolerance and sometimes collapse. Many of<br />
these dogs also suffer from ataxia and weakness in the hindlegs, with knuckling of the<br />
paws seen when tired. This is because dogs with Laryngeal paralysis often suffer from<br />
generalised “ Neuromuscular Disease”. This is often referred to as Geriatric Onset Laryngeal<br />
Paralysis and Polyneuropathy.( GOLPP)<br />
Conservative treatment options include walking these dogs in a harness, keeping them<br />
cool and in a well ventilated environment, not overheating them and short exercise<br />
activity when its cooler. Sometimes medications are<br />
given to help the cough and calm them down if they are<br />
anxious and restless. Surgery is an option for those dogs<br />
with severe respiratory signs that are unresponsive to<br />
conservative treatment.<br />
Our darling Lola has GOLPP but is well managed<br />
conservatively. She can still exercise for an hour a day but<br />
I avoid the hotter parts of the day. She loves swimming<br />
but Im careful where I take her as she can regurgitate up<br />
excess water swallowed. I elevate her food and am careful<br />
what I feed her. She’s not currently on medications.<br />
All in all for a 13.5 year old cancer survivor, she’s doing<br />
awesome.<br />

Snappy vegetarian eating, Chinese-style<br />
Maggie Zhu’s vegetarian<br />
Chinese Homestyle<br />
cookbook is filled with<br />
delicious, straightforward<br />
dishes – perfect for quick,<br />
nutritious and affordable<br />
meals<br />
Baby bok choy with fried<br />
tofu<br />
Serves 4<br />
Ingredients<br />
300g cucumber, partially peeled<br />
3 cloves garlic, crushed and<br />
minced<br />
1 Tbsp Chinkiang vinegar<br />
1 Tbsp light soy sauce<br />
1 tsp sugar<br />
½ tsp salt<br />
½ tsp toasted sesame oil<br />
2 tsp chilli oil, or to taste, for<br />
serving (optional)<br />
This is a dish Zhu would<br />
always get super-excited about<br />
when her mum made it. It<br />
demonstrates how you can use<br />
fried tofu to make a vege dish<br />
so satisfying – the tofu soaks<br />
up the soy sauce and gets a little<br />
caramelised from the sugar.<br />
Store-bought fried tofu creates<br />
a better result for this dish, but<br />
homemade tofu will work too.<br />
Ingredients<br />
450g baby bok choy<br />
1 Tbsp peanut oil<br />
2 spring onions, sliced<br />
1 tsp sugar<br />
2 Tbsp light soy sauce<br />
2 cups deep-fried tofu puffs, cut<br />
in half<br />
Directions<br />
Separate the large leaves from<br />
the baby bok choy and remove<br />
and discard their tough ends;<br />
leave the smaller leaves attached<br />
to the cores. Carefully wash the<br />
bok choy in a colander.<br />
In a large skillet, heat the oil<br />
over medium-high heat until<br />
hot. Add the spring onions and<br />
stir a few times until fragrant.<br />
Add the bok choy and cook,<br />
stirring occasionally, until the<br />
leaves are just softened, 1 to 2<br />
minutes. Sprinkle with the sugar<br />
and swirl in the soy sauce. Immediately<br />
stir a few times to mix<br />
well. Add the tofu and cook and<br />
stir to mix well.<br />
Cover the pan and reduce<br />
the heat to medium. Let steam<br />
for 30 seconds. Uncover and<br />
stir a few times. If the bok choy<br />
has softened throughout, it’s<br />
done; if not, cover and cook for<br />
another 10 to 20 seconds, until<br />
it is cooked through and slightly<br />
caramelised on the edges.<br />
Transfer the contents of the<br />
pan to a large serving plate and<br />
serve hot.<br />
Easy cucumber salad<br />

TASTY: Baby bok choy<br />

easy-to-make offerings from<br />
Maggie Zhu.<br />
PHOTOS: NZ HERALD<br />
appetiser, crisp cucumber<br />
is mixed with lots of garlic,<br />
drizzled with a blend of soy<br />
sauce, vinegar and sugar, and<br />
finished with a few drops of<br />
sesame oil. The sauce is light yet<br />
has a distinct sour flavour with<br />
a hint of sweetness, enhanced by<br />
the strong aroma of garlic.<br />
To give the salad an extra kick,<br />
it’s recommend drizzling it with<br />
chilli oil, which makes the dish<br />
addictively tasty. This is another<br />
family favourite that Zhu’s mum<br />
would serve every week. It pairs<br />
especially well with noodles and<br />
savoury dumplings.<br />
Directions<br />
Dry the cucumber with paper<br />
towels. Place it on a large cutting<br />
board and carefully use the flat<br />
side of a knife or cleaver to crush<br />
it; a meat pounder will work as<br />
well. Cut the cucumber into bitesize<br />
pieces and place the pieces in<br />
a medium bowl.<br />
Add the garlic to the cucumber.<br />
In a small bowl, combine the<br />
vinegar, soy sauce, sugar, salt,<br />
and sesame oil for the sauce and<br />
mix well.<br />
Right before serving, pour the<br />
sauce over the cucumber and<br />
garlic and mix well.<br />
(Do not add the sauce beforehand;<br />
it will cause the cucumber<br />
to lose water and dilute the<br />
sauce.)<br />
Drizzle with chilli oil (if using)<br />
and serve.<br />
