Whirlwind week for 

talented teenager

OXLEY/ST 

ANDREW’S 

COLLEGE 

It’s been a busy week for the multi-talented Sienna Stowers-Smith. On Sunday, she was co-captain of St 

Andrew’s College mixed touch team, which won the South Island secondary schools’ championship title. Two 

days before that, she was named to trial for the New Zealand secondary schools’ netball team for a second 

consecutive year. Stowers-Smith’s talents aren’t limited to the two sports either. The year 13 student played 

for the New Zealand Māori under-18 Ngā Māreikura sevens team at the world schools’ sevens tournament in 

December. • Read more about the netball and touch success on page 6 

Smash 

and grab 

teens hit 

preschool 

teacher’s 

vehicle 

• By Daniel Alvey 

FIVE FLEEING teenagers who 

were involved in a smash-andgrab 

at Northlink Shopping 

Centre were arrested following a 

failed getaway attempt. 

The teenagers were fleeing from 

police after they had smashed 

the front doors and window of 

Noel Leeming at the Northlink 

Shopping Centre about 4.40am, 

where they were seen running 

into the store holding pillowcases. 

Police were informed of the 

suspected stolen vehicle in the 

Huntsbury area about 7.45am on 

Monday. 

When police responded, the 

occupants of the vehicle tried to 

flee, damaging a police vehicle 

and a Huntsbury Preschool 

teacher’s vehicle in the process. 

In a Facebook post, mums 

from the preschool have banded 

together and said they would pay 

for the insurance excess on the 

teacher’s car. 

A Huntsbury resident posted 

on Facebook on Monday he saw 

up to seven police cars at the 

scene and was told by police that 

one of the teenagers was 13.

CHECK IT OUT: ‘The new store is very sharp,’ customer Kathryn told Rhys. 

Owner Stu, 

cutting the 

ribbon and 

reopening 

the store as 

FreshChoice 

Fendalton. 

A fresh new choice in Fendalton 

FRESHCHOICE Fendalton 

opened its new store on Ilam Rd 

this week. 

The former Supervalue 

Fendalton store has been 

refreshed with a new look and 

name. 

Store owner Stu said the 

supermarket is an integral part 

of the community. 

“We have proudly operated 

in Fendalton for over 13 years 

and during that time we have 

appreciated the loyalty and 

support of the local community.” 

After the February 22, 2011 

earthquake the store stayed 

open, providing a vital link to 

the community. 

“We were proud we were able 

to continue serving customers 

during that difficult time. While 

some of the faces may have 

changed since then, the team 

brings this same customer-first 

approach to everything they do,” 

said Stu. 

When the store is busy 

customers will often find 

the owners behind the till or 

working on the shop floor filling 

shelves. 

Store manager David has 

worked in the store for seven 

years. For the FreshChoice team 

it is all about collaboration and 

community, he said. 

“A caring, respectful working 

environment like this is hard to 

find, but working at FreshChoice 

Fendalton makes it easy to have 

pride in the work that I do. 

“We have some amazing fresh 

deals to celebrate our team 

joining the FreshChoice family, 

which shoppers will appreciate. 

Best of all, our customers will 

be greeted by the same friendly 

faces and excellent customer 

service that our store has always 

prided itself on.” 

• FreshChoice Fendalton is 

located at 376 Ilam Rd, and 

is open 7am-9pm every day.

Canty marching team 

displays winning style 

The Pioneers of Canterbury 

Masters team marched their 

way to success at the recent NZ 

Marching Championships, hosted 

by Marching Canterbury and 

held at Christchurch Arena. 

Smartly turned out in their 

crisp white jackets and blue and 

white tartan skirts, the 21-member 

team took first place in the 

display phase and were third 

champion team overall. 

Sirita Prior, who co-coaches the team 

with Noeline Kitto, says it was the closest 

result for champion team in five years, 

and “a very interesting competition with 

just 30 points between the first and third 

placegetters”. 

They were also the third-placed technical 

drill team. 

For their winning display march, the 

team received a trophy, with members 

also awarded badges and bars to place on 

their jackets. 

Eight teams from around New Zealand 

competed in the Masters division, four of 

them from Canterbury. 

The Pioneers of Canterbury Masters 

have enough members for two technical 

drill teams, and the second team, Pioneers 

of Canterbury Force, placed fifth in 

the technical drill phase. 

“It’s been said by some that you can’t 

coach two teams successfully, but we’ve 

proved them wrong. It’s also how you

measure success which defines the season 

– awards aren’t what we prioritise but we 

appreciate them when they are received,” 

Sirita says. 

“We train both teams together as one 

team and they both receive the same 

attention.” 

Prior to the championships, the 

Pioneers of Canterbury were invited to 

showcase their display and technical 

marches at the Drill Dance Australia and 

Marching NZ Tattoo being held on the 

Gold Coast in July. 

“We asked the girls if they wanted to go 

and not one of them said ‘no’,” Sirita says. 

“They will have four weeks off from 

training before we prepare for Australia 

and then when we return we will be creating 

a whole new display and learning a 

new technical drill for next season, which 

starts in October,” Sirita says. 

The 2024 NZ Marching Championships 

will be held in Hamilton next March, 

hosted by Marching Waikato.

Stepping Back in 

Time - Year 1-3 

students visit 

Ferrymead. 

For our integrated topic this term, 

we have been learning about 

transformation with the context 

for learning being looking at how 

Christchurch has transformed as a 

result of migration. To learn more 

about what Christchurch was like 

back in the colonial days, each Kaitiaki 

group in Year 1-3 hopped on the bus to 

Ferrymead! 

Our students were so excited when the 

bus turned up - for some of our tamariki 

it was their first ever bus ride! When we 

arrived at Ferrymead, the children got 

changed into their costumes. 

Our students also baked cookies in a 

colonial kitchen. 

They also attended Moorhouse school 

- a colonial school with very strict 

expectations! 

Buzz buzz - Nothing sweeter than honey! 

Kicking off the year with harvesting last year’s honey! 

Last year we started our journey with our new beehive provided by Bee 

Awesome and they have been fantastic! 

We started with preparing our school grounds with some beautiful native plants/ 

trees as well as bee-friendly plants that were given to us by Bee Awesome. 

The awesome staff at Bee Awesome then took our students for a series of 

lessons around honey bees in preparation for the incoming hive. 

Term 4 2022, rolls around and we have our new beehive, this went from a single 

box to a 4 tier box over the next 8 weeks. 

The students were able to kit up in bee suits and open up the beehive to have a 

look inside and see how the bees were going. 

From there we locked it up for over the summer when we knew they would be 

busy at work. 

This year we finally got the chance to open it up with most of last year’s Bee 

Team. They were so excited to see all the hard work that the bees had done over 

the summer. 

Check out some pictures of our students in action harvesting the honey and 

learning about different things. The bees are really healthy and we are super 

happy with how we were supported during this process by Bee Awesome and by 

the school. 

Kōmingo Year 5 & 6 

CBD Trip 

In Term 4 we went on 

our Trip to the CBD. 

On our trip we went 

to Margaret Mahy 

Park, completed 

a Scavenger hunt 

to find cultural 

landmarks in the CBD 

including the Kate 

Shepherd memorial 

and the Bridge of 

Remembrance, 

visited the Tūranga 

library to learn about cultural landmarks 

and walked to Victoria Square to 

have our lunch under the trees before 

completing our scavenger hunt. It was a 

very hot day but it was loads of fun and 

we learnt a lot about the transformation 

of our city and the cultural landmarks. 

Thank you to the amazing parent 

helpers, teachers and staff from 

Tūranga who made our trip so 

awesome! 

Police Competency Test - 2023 

Taiheke were fortunate enough to have two teams enter into this event. PCT competition was 

held on Tuesday the 7th of March. This event was run at Cowles stadium. Students in their teams 

were put through their paces, testing their speed, agility, teamwork, and perseverance. Below are 

some student’s reflections and a selection of photos from the event. 

Maya 

• Thought that the PCT test was very fun and an amazing experience. We got to do lots of 

activities, such as laser, lilypad and who could fold their tarpaulin the most times and we would 

have to stand on them for ten seconds. My favourite part was the actual test because it was 

fun jumping over the walls. 

Enzo 

• The PCT was extraordinary with plenty of activities including: Laser run where there was a police 

officer that would record your speed with a laser gun while you run down a track. We got to tour 

through a police car and look through the St. John’s equipment, learning the safety position and 

also learning how to do CPR. There were also team-building challenges that would test your 

teamwork. But my favourite was the main event which was the PCT course! It was my favourite 

because of all the obstacles which was a challenge but through teamwork we succeeded. 

Jessie 

• Taking part in the PCT this week was an amazing experience as we were able to put all our 

fitness skills to the test. One of my highlights from the event was taking part in a variety of 

activities leading up to the main test. The main test was a very challenging course with many 

obstacles to overcome as a team but after all our hard work on the course, we were able to get 

a free sausage sizzle (which was very yummy). Overall I would recommend to anyone coming 

into year 7/8 in the coming years to try out for the PCT team as it was an amazing experience 

and just a really great chance to work in a team.

SOCIAL: 

Chris

painting 

during 

the 

Covid-19 

pandemic

to form 

a group

isolated 

artists. 

Plan to bring lonely 

artists together 

CHRIS SMITH wants to bring 

like-minded artists together to 

share ideas, work on projects or 

just have a coffee and a chat. 

She took up acrylic painting 

when she retired during the 

Covid-19 pandemic. 

Her art has become her 

passion but she has found it to 

be an isolating activity. So Smith 

has called for people to form a 

group in Burnside. 

“I think it would be really 

fun if we were a mixed group 

of arts and crafts people like 

scrapbookers, painters, cardmakers, 

just anything really. 

“It would be great to see what 

everyone is up to and share our 

knowledge and abilities with 

each other.” 

Smith has attended a few art 

classes but they were expensive 

and she would rather spend 

money on paint and canvas. 

“I’d like to get a group of . . . 

arts and craft people together 

for weekly get-togethers, where 

each person can work on their 

own projects, similar to a class 

situation, or just turn up for a 

coffee and a chat.” 

Smith said her art has changed 

and evolved. She paints New 

Zealand landscapes and dabbles 

in fluid painting, but is trying 

to loosen up her style with some 

abstract works. 

“It’s all for fun,” she said. 

•For further information

A word from Ilam MP 

Sarah 

Pallett 

I know things are tough right now 

for many Canterbury households. As 

a Government, we’re focused on the 

big issues that matter most to New 

Zealanders, like tackling the cost of 

living and supporting communities 

following the recent severe weather. 

We’ve announced a cost of living 

package that will support around 

1.4 million New Zealanders – with 

pensioners, students, parents, and 

those on main benefits receiving a 

boost to their income from the start of 

next month. 

Superannuation for people here in Ilam 

will rise from April 1, with a couple 

both aged over 65 receiving over $100 

more a fortnight, and a single person 

living alone receiving an extra $66.86 

each payment. 

We’re also boosting the student 

allowance and student loan living costs 

payments by around $20 each payment, 

to make everyday life more affordable 

for tertiary students. 

To support families, we’re boosting 

Working for Families, including 

increases to Best Start Payments, 

and increasing the eldest child rate 

for the Family Tax Credit. We’re also 

expanding childcare assistance, cutting 

costs for working parents. 

These measures build on the steps 

we’ve already taken to ease the pressure 

on Canterbury families, including 

increasing the minimum wage and 

cutting the cost of petrol and public 

transport. 

We’re also cancelling or delaying a suite 

of programmes, to free up funding and 

resources for where they’re needed 

most. These policy changes will help 

to provide greater bandwidth for the 

Government to ensure we’re doing all 

we can to support New Zealanders in 

the here and now. 

While these measures won’t solve 

everything, they are practical steps that 

we can take to support families in Ilam 

with the cost of living.

Talented netballers earn NZ schools trial 

• By Jaime Cunningham 

ST ANDREW’S Sienna Stowers- 

Smith and St Margaret’s Ivy 

Brown will trial for the New 

Zealand secondary schools’ 

netball team next month 

after impressing at a national 

development camp. 

Brown will be trialing for the 

first time, while Stowers-Smith 

was named in last year’s secondary 

schools’ team. 

A pool of 90 participated in 

three national development 

camps in January, but only 24 

players were selected for a trial. 

Stowers-Smith and Brown 

are the only players from the 

Mainland region and two of the 

six South Island players. 

Stowers-Smith has played 

for the New Zealand under-18 

Māori Ngā Māreikura sevens 

team at the world schools’ 

tournament, which took place in 

Auckland in December. 

Brown previously represented 

New Zealand in age-group 

basketball, playing at the FIBA 

under-16 Asia Cup last year. 

Stowers-Smith was also part of 

the Christchurch under-18 netball 

team that won the national 

CHANCE: St Andrew’s College netballer Sienna Stowers-Smith (C bib) and Ivy Brown (right) from St Margaret’s will be

championships last year. 

After three years of Covid-19 

impacting international competition 

for secondary schools’ 

netball, the final squad will 

travel to Australia in June for 

an under-19 competition. New 

Zealand secondary schools head 

coach Pelesa Semu said most 

players are new to the Netball 

New Zealand player pathway environment 

and the international 

exposure will be important 

leading up to the Netball World 

Youth Cup 2025. 

“The NZSS team holds a special 

place in New Zealand netball 

history and the pinnacle for 

secondary school players around 

the country,” Semu said. 

“We can’t wait to see what 

these athletes will bring to the 

trials in what will be a good look 

into the future of our game in 

New Zealand.” Semu will be 

assisted by former Silver Fern Jo 

Morrison, who will observe and 

work with the 24 players during 

a three-day trial of fitness, skills 

and match play in Auckland 

from April 16-18.

St Andrew’s mixed team 

WINNER: Samuel Mustchin touches down for St Andrew’s 

in the last minute of the South Island secondary schools’ 

mixed touch final on Sunday. 

score South Island title 


ST ANDREW’S College’s 

mixed touch team have won the 

South Island secondary schools 

tournament after a dominant 

display at the weekend. 

They beat defending national 

champions Rolleston College 8-7 

in the final on Sunday to clinch 

the title. 

St Andrew’s team manager 

Alison Lomax said they made 

a strong start to the match, but 

Rolleston came back in the second 

half and managed to draw 

even with less than a minute to 

go. 

“STAC had the ball at the tap 

off and managed to keep possession 

and to set up a move to 

score a try in the last few seconds 

of the game to win 8-7,” Lomax 

said. 

“The large crowd was kept well 

entertained with this nail-biting 

finish and it was an excellent display 

of skills from both teams.” 

St Andrew’s finished the tournament 

with six wins and just 

one loss. 

Although they lost to 

Wakatipu High in pool play, St 

Andrew’s had the best points 

differential with 51 over the two 

days, largely due to a big 23-1 

win against Invercargill’s Te 

Wharekura o Arowhenua. 

St Andrew’s mixed side 

finished fourth at last year’s New 

Zealand secondary schools’ 

tournament and will be looking 

to continue their success at 

the Christchurch super touch 

competition in October. 

“The team has had limited 

game time on a Wednesday this 

term due to weather, despite 

this, the team have trained hard 

and followed the guidance and 

expertise of their coach Paul 

Harris,” Lomax said. 

The team members will spend 

the next two terms playing 

various winter sports before they 

reassemble in October for the 

New Zealand secondary schools’ 

championship in Rotorua in 

December. 

St Bede’s College were the best 

Christchurch school in the boys’ 

grade, finishing second after a 

final loss to Dunedin’s Kings 

High School. 

The only final played without 

a Christchurch school at the 

tournament was in the girls’ 

grade. Rangi Ruru finished 

fourth in the grade.

St Thomas’ dominate Brad Milne Cup 


ST THOMAS’ dominated the 

second half to win the annual 

Brad Milne Cup basketball 

match against Rolleston College 

on Friday. 

In a game of two halves, it was 

Rolleston leading 43-37 at halftime. 

St Thomas’ started the 

third quarter with a 14-point 

run, which left Rolleston with 

a large deficit for the rest of the 

match. 

At one stage in the second half, 

St Thomas’ were leading by 50 

points. 

Rolleston were able to claw 

their way back, but St Thomas’ 

proved too strong, winning 

110-71. 

Rolleston College deputy 

principal Alby Wilson said it was 

great to see the manawa (heartwarming) 

spirit of the large 

crowd of St Thomas’ supporters 

in the Rolleston gymnasium. 

The match is played as a season 

opener for both schools’ senior 

basketball sides in memory of 

former teacher Brad Milne. 

Milne worked at St Thomas’ 

for eight years and was 

previously an assistant principal 

before he moved to Rolleston 

College in 2020. 

He passed away unexpectedly 

in 2020, and the cup was 

established the following year. 

St Thomas’ have won all three 

of the matches. 

BIG GAME: St Thomas’ on the charge in the clash against Rolleston College. Left – Brad Milne. 

“The whole night captured 

the essence of what the night is 

celebrating: The life and memory 

of Brad Milne. It was played 

with heart, fairness and mana. 

We know Brad would have been 

proud of both teams,” Wilson 

said. 

Both teams finished the game 

with a powerful haka, which 

Wilson said was “a great way to 

end the night.”

No eggs? No problem, simply substitute 

Swapping in one 

ingredient for 

another can not only 

save your cake mixture, 

it can also reduce 

waste, write the good 

folk at Love Food Hate 

Waste 

WE LOVE using bananas and 

apples in creative ways, 

but did you 

know they 

can also 

be used 

as baking 

substitutes 

in place of 

eggs, butter, 

and yoghurt? 

This is especially 

handy if you often 

find partly eaten apples 

coming home inside lunch 

boxes. Chop them up and place 

in freezer bags until you have 

enough, then cook them up to 

make apple sauce. Stored in a 

container, it will last up to three 

days in the fridge or longer in 

the freezer. 

Use ¼ cup as a substitute for 

1 egg, or ½ cup of apple sauce 

instead of 1 cup of butter, and 

swap equal amounts for yoghurt. 

If it’s brown bananas you’re 

dealing with, half a large banana 

can be used instead of 1 egg, 

or 1 cup of mashed banana 

substituted for 1 cup of butter 

or yoghurt. Note that using 

ingredient substitutes may affect 

the texture and flavour. 

Here are more ideas for egg, 

butter, and yoghurt substitutes: 

What can I use instead of 

eggs? 

• To replace 

one 

egg, you can 

use: 

• Mayonnaise 

(left) 

– use 2 or 3 

tablespoons. 

• 1 teaspoon 

of baking soda 

plus 1 tablespoon 

of white 

vinegar. 

• Ground 

flaxseed – mix 1 

tablespoon of ground 

flaxseed with 3 tablespoons 

of cold water, stir then leave to 

stand for 10 minutes to thicken. 

• Whole chia seeds – mix 1 

tablespoon of whole chia seeds 

with 3 tablespoons of cold water, 

stir, then leave to stand for 10 

minutes to thicken. 

• Silken tofu – use ¼ cup of 

silken tofu, blended. 

• Aquafaba (chickpea brine) 

– use 2 tablespoons of aquafaba 

instead of 1 egg white or 3 

tablespoons for 1 whole egg. 

• For glazing, in place of an egg 

wash, milk also works or heated 

apricot jam brushed over the 

cooked bread or pastry. 

• For breading, a mix of cornstarch 

or cornflour and water 

can work before coating with 

breadcrumbs. 


butter? 

Here is a general guide for the 

ratio of butter : substitute. 

• Avocado 1:1 

• Coconut oil 1:1 

• Pumpkin puree 1:¾ (Pureed 

squash, butternut, and 

sometimes kumara can also be 

used) 

• Olive and vegetable oil 1:¾ 

• Applesauce 1:½ 

• Nut butters 1:1 (but use half 

nut butter and half oil) 


yoghurt? 

Sour cream, silken tofu, 

coconut yoghurt or cream/milk 

all make great substitutes for 

yoghurt and work using a 1:1 

ratio! 

Chocolate mayonnaise 

cake 

Want to try out a classic 

dessert using an ingredient 

substitute? Give this decadent 

chocolate cake, which uses 

mayonnaise instead of egg, a go! 

Ingredients 

2 cups flour 

1 cup sugar 

2 tsp baking soda 

½ cup cocoa powder 

SWAP: This decadent chocolate cake uses mayonnaise 

instead of egg. 

PHOTOS: GETTY, GEL LIM/ODT 

1 cup water or cooled black 

coffee 

1 cup mayonnaise 

1 tsp vanilla extract 

Directions 

Heat oven to 175 deg C/155 deg 

C fan bake. Prepare a 20cm cake 

tin or baking dish by greasing it 

or lining with baking paper. 

Sift the dry ingredients into 

a bowl, mix using a whisk then 

make a well in the centre. 

Add remaining ingredients 

and mix until just combined. 

Pour into the prepared tin and 

bake for 50-55 minutes or until 

a skewer inserted in the middle 

comes out clean. 

Remove from the oven and 

leave to cool for 5 minutes before 

removing from the tin. Cool 

completely if icing.

Kirkwood Intermediate 

School of Choice 

Celebrating Kirkwood 

House Captains for 2023 

Year 7 Camp 

Our Year 7 pupils have recently 

attended a camp at Purau Bay. 

This is a great way for the children 

to get to know each other. 

Back row (from left): Clara, Alex, Amilee, Annabel 

Front Row (from left): CJ, Nika, Liam, Oscar 

My favourite 

part of camp was the 

abseiling because it was 

fun, challenging, and a new 

experience. It was great to watch 

everyone do it. I learnt that there 

were lots of different types of crabs 

on the beach. I also learnt that 

when you are abseiling you 

never put your feet close 

together. 

My favourite 

part of the camp 

was doing the activities 

and feeding the eels and 

goats. We enjoyed the free 

time on the beach, the water 

was crystal clear. The 

abseiling was amazing; 

you feel like you can 

fly. 

House Captains for Mansfield/Hillary 

CJ - ex Ararira Springs Primary 

I love the teachers at Kirkwood and I find the school culture is so down 

to earth and is super motivational. I like the discipline and strict rules the 

teachers lay out. I want to make a positive influence on the students during 

their time at Kirkwood and I want to make the environment a better place. 

I wanted to be a House Captain because I wanted to be a great leader for 

this school. 

Clara - ex Lincoln Primary 

I like the opportunities and learning environment. Also, the people from 

different backgrounds and the staff at Kirkwood are all lovely to talk to.This 

year, I would like to encourage more students to try new things. I want to 

help fundraise to help our school and I would like to help more students 

respect, encourage, and help others. I wanted to be a House Captain 

so I could help others, learn leadership skills, and have an influence with 

decisions made at school. 

House Captains for Sheppard/Freyberg 

Liam - ex Knights Stream School 

I like Kirkwood for the many opportunities which are offered, especially 

leadership opportunities. I will encourage people to try new things which are 

outside of their comfort zone. I wanted to become a House Captain because 

I would like to get more involved with the school and learn leadership skills. 

Amilee - ex Prebbleton 

At Kirkwood, I like all the sports and activities made available to us. I would 

love to get in a netball, touch and korfball team and will encourage others to 

try sports too. I was always wanting to be House Captain at Kirkwood so I 

can develop leadership skills. 

House Captains for Britten/Te Kanawa 

Oscar - ex Ilam School 

I really like the Technology classes and Physical Education. My favourite 

subject is writing. I wanted to be a House Captain so I can show I am 

responsible and really trustworthy to others. 

Annabel - ex Halswell School 

I enjoy the Technology classes, all the sports available at Kirkwood, and the 

many different opportunities offered at Kirkwood. I will get everyone to enjoy 

sports days and encourage people to earn House Points. I wanted to be a 

House Captain because it sounds like a good leadership role. 

House Captains for Rutherford/Batten 

Alex - ex Ararira Springs Primary 

I love Kirkwood because there are always new things to do and learn. It is 

awesome to be around a lot of people my age, and to learn and grow from 

them. There are also heaps of cool opportunities, whether they are sporting, 

academic or leadership. This year I would like to encourage everyone to be 

their best self and make the most of every opportunity. Last year, our class 

studied who our houses are named after, this inspired me and made me 

want to become a leader. 

Nika - ex Beckenham School 

I love Kirkwood so much as I feel like I can do anything. All the teachers 

and children support me in everything I do. I want to encourage learning and 

interacting with others. I wanted to be a House Captain so I can show people 

like me that they can do anything they want if they put their mind to it. 

I enjoyed all of 

the camp, especially 

abseiling, canoeing, the farm 

tour and feeding the eels. We learnt 

how to abseil and how to play Kick the 

Can. I learnt that Ripapa Island existed, 

and I learnt the island's past uses and 

history. I also learnt a lot more about 

the Māori history in and around 

Ripapa. We went on a farm tour 

and enjoyed seeing all the 

farm animals. 

My favourite 

part was abseiling 

down the cliff. My other 

favourite part was canoeing 

in the ocean. I learnt that goats 

will eat absolutely anything if 

you let them. I also learnt how 

to put a tent up and down 

and that chickens and 

goats like bread.
