Barbie wins talent show<br />

GEORGIA Reynolds is a big fan<br />

of the Barbie movie, and she took<br />

inspiration from it to come up with<br />

a winning dance number at The<br />

Palms’ talent quest.<br />

The quest saw more than 50<br />

talented youngsters dance, sing,<br />

and act in hopes of winning the<br />

competition.<br />

“It felt good to win,” said<br />

Georgia, who is in year 4 at Te Ara<br />

Koropiko West Spreydon School.<br />

Said her mother, Roseanne<br />

Reeves: “Her dance teacher, Steph<br />

Phillips, took her to the Barbie<br />

movie to inspire the dance they<br />

made together . . . she has been the<br />

biggest support for Georgia.”<br />

Georgia has been working with<br />

her instructor from Legacy Dance<br />

Studios for a year and a half and<br />

was awarded $1000 in vouchers,<br />

alongside first place, to spend at the<br />

shopping centre.<br />

needs<br />

your help<br />

• By Sasha Watson<br />

VOLUNTEERS ARE needed for<br />

a Halswell-specific community<br />

patrol car as crime increases in the<br />

fast-growing area.<br />

The Waipuna Halswell-Hornby-<br />

Riccarton Community Board<br />

wants funding for a vehicle to take<br />

the pressure off the Hornby community<br />

patrol which also covers<br />

Halswell.<br />

But to get funding, the community<br />

board will need to show there<br />

are enough volunteers to make it<br />

viable.<br />

Said Halswell Ward councillor<br />

and community board member<br />

Andrei Moore: “Our community<br />

board has identified supporting<br />

a new community patrol car, as a<br />

project, is something the community<br />

would be strongly in support<br />

of.<br />

“Right now, I’m putting the<br />

call out for expressions of interest<br />

from willing volunteers for both<br />

patrols and a new committee.”<br />

Armed police raid<br />

Sydenham house<br />

RAID: The Milton St property was searched and a woman was taken into custody<br />

last week.<br />

RESIDENTS OF a street in<br />

Sydenham were told to stay<br />

inside their homes while armed<br />

police raided a house.<br />

A neighbour of the Milton St<br />

property where the raid took<br />

place said Armed Offenders’<br />

Squad members arrived at the<br />

house about 3pm on Thursday<br />

last week.<br />

The neighbour said they were<br />

told to stay in their home until<br />

the raid was over.<br />

A woman from the house was<br />

taken into custody while police<br />

searched for two men.<br />

“Police cuffed a young woman<br />

and have yet to find the two<br />

men,” the neighbour said.<br />

A person was later charged<br />

with a drug-related offence.<br />

“They first searched with a<br />

drone inside the house, then they<br />

went in.<br />

“We were out on the patio<br />

and (I) was asked to go inside. It<br />

was hectic with lots of guns and<br />

stuff.”<br />

Another neighbour of the<br />

Milton St property said: “I saw a<br />

shadow go past before I saw the<br />

full body – a dude in a full armed<br />

offenders’ suit was pointing a finger<br />

at me and asked me to come<br />

to the window. They then asked<br />

me about the neighbours.”<br />

TEAM: The Hornby patrol car currently covers the Halswell/<br />

Hornby area with eyes, ears, and assistance when needed.<br />

Volunteers needed<br />

for Halswell patrol<br />

• From page 1<br />

Community patrols are organised<br />

and operated by their local<br />

communities and volunteers,<br />

who work closely with police and<br />

other agencies to assist in building<br />

safer communities.<br />

Moore said that there is capacity<br />

for another 20 volunteers<br />

and the response to his proposal<br />

will determine whether there is<br />

enough people power to deliver<br />

more patrol hours on the road.<br />

“Our community is on track<br />

to soon be about the size of Gisborne<br />

so the time has probably<br />

come,” said Moore.<br />

“It will require a few willing<br />

volunteers for patrols and establishing<br />

a new committee, but I<br />

believe it’s achievable if the support<br />

is there.”<br />

Expressions of interest can be<br />

sent to Andrei.Moore@ccc.govt.<br />

nz or Hornbycommunitypatrol@<br />

gmail.com. Alternatively, go to<br />

The Dressmaker & the Hidden Soldier<br />

by Doug Gold<br />

A true story of wartime courage, escape and romance.<br />

The Dressmaker & the Hidden Soldier is based on the extraordinary<br />

true story of Peter Blunden, the New Zealand soldier, and Thalia<br />

Christidou, the young Greek dressmaker, and Tasoula Paschilidou,<br />

the resistance heroine.<br />

What follows is an epic love story set in a country under Hitler’s<br />

oppressive regime. With the Nazis closing in, Peter makes another<br />

courageous escape, Thalia is threatened by betrayal, and Tasoula is<br />

sent to a concentration camp.<br />

Will Tasoula survive? What will become of Peter and Thalia’s<br />

undeclared love?<br />

School holiday showcase<br />

‘something special’<br />

• From page 1<br />

Said The Palms’ spokesperson<br />

Claudine Pausma: “It takes a<br />

profound amount of courage for<br />

a child to perform publicly.<br />

“We feel privileged and<br />

honoured to have so many<br />

children willing to get out of their<br />

comfort zone and perform.<br />

“Seeing parents, caregivers, and<br />

families cheering on their kids,<br />

and giving them an opportunity<br />

to perform that they might not<br />

otherwise get, is something<br />

special.”<br />

55 applicants, aged five to 16<br />

years, took part in three days of<br />

heats and a final show day on<br />

September 30.<br />

Westburn Primary School’s<br />

Aura Mendiratta came in second<br />

place overall at the quest with a<br />

bhangra solo dance.<br />

“I felt very proud and lucky,”<br />

said eight-year-old Aura.<br />

“The performance went well,<br />

and I’d definitely participate in<br />

(the talent quest) next year.”<br />

Aura plans to use her vouchers<br />

on her family and will ‘also buy<br />

some food and clothes for needy<br />

children who do not have that<br />

many opportunities’.<br />

In third place, was Cleo<br />

Fitzgerald of Addington, who<br />

sang ‘Hallelujah’ solo.<br />

“This talent quest was a big<br />

step up for Cleo in terms of<br />

performing in a bigger situation<br />

WINNERS: Aura Mendiratta, Cleo Fitzgerald and Georgia<br />

Reynolds with talent quest host Chris Lynch.<br />

with crowds of people,” said her<br />

mother, Ella Fitzgerald.<br />

“I was amazed at how brave she<br />

was; she took everything in her<br />

stride.”<br />

Cleo, who is nine, attends St<br />

Mark’s School and was recently<br />

awarded the senior girls’ singing<br />

cup and performed in the<br />

school’s production.<br />

Addington Farm<br />

expansion plans<br />

• By Sasha Watson<br />

ADDINGTON FARM wants to<br />

expand its community garden<br />

operation.<br />

It is asking to use an area in the<br />

south corner of Addington Park.<br />

In early September, Addington<br />

Farm manager William LeHeux,<br />

along with volunteers, provided<br />

a deputation to the Waihoro<br />

Spreydon-Cashmere-Heathcote<br />

Community Board on Addington<br />

Farm.<br />

The proposal has been<br />

endorsed by Food Together<br />

Aotearoa, the Addington Park<br />

Community Group, Addington<br />

Te Kura Taumatau, Manuka<br />

Cottage Addington Community<br />

House and the Canterbury Community<br />

Gardens Association.<br />

Said community board chairperson<br />

Callum Ward: “We are<br />

very supportive of the idea . . .<br />

we’ve handed the request over to<br />

staff to investigate it in more detail,<br />

including how we’ll consult<br />

with the public before anything<br />

goes ahead.<br />

Thursday <strong>October</strong> <strong>12</strong> <strong>2023</strong><br />

“We’ve had several community<br />

groups approach the board in the<br />

last few months about growing<br />

food in public spaces and we’re<br />

excited about the prospect of<br />

initiatives like this.<br />

“Especially when credible, wellconnected<br />

community groups<br />

like the Addington Farm put<br />

their hand up to take the lead.”<br />

Addington Farm, which was<br />

founded in 2018, operates as a<br />

charitable trust, not-for-profit<br />

organisation that aims to convert<br />

unused backyards into garden<br />

plots.<br />

The food is shared with volunteers<br />

and given to their community<br />

food distribution partner,<br />

Addington Te Kura Taumatua.<br />

The farm also sells produce<br />

through a seasonal communitysupported<br />

agriculture<br />

programme.<br />
