BIG TURNOUT: An estimated<br />
<strong>15</strong>,000 people attended the<br />
festival in Thomson Park.<br />
FAERIE FUN: The Christchurch Faerie Circle face painting was a popular attraction<br />
at the 13th annual I Love Brighton festival.<br />
• By Geoff Sloan<br />
AN ESTIMATED crowd of<br />
up to <strong>15</strong>,000 descended on<br />
Thomson Park for the 13th<br />
annual ‘I Love Brighton’<br />
festival.<br />
Event co-organiser Martha<br />
Baxendell said the free festival<br />
was a great way to start the<br />
year.<br />
“This is a family<br />
friendly event that we<br />
put on every year with<br />
activities for children, a<br />
little market area, we’ve got<br />
entertainment happening.<br />
I mean, just a fun day for<br />
everyone.”<br />
Community groups<br />
and sports clubs took the<br />
opportunity to showcase their<br />

offerings, keen to recruit new<br />
members by running games<br />
and activities.<br />
The event began after the<br />
Christchurch earthquakes as<br />
a way of lifting the spirits of<br />
the New Brighton community<br />
and encouraging locals to reengage<br />
in activities.<br />

STREETSCAPE renewal work<br />
about to start in Linwood<br />
Village has been designed<br />
to create a safer and more<br />
welcoming environment.<br />
The package of works includes<br />
wider footpaths, dedicated cycle<br />
lanes, more trees, better lighting<br />
and improved landscaping.<br />
Said the city council’s planning<br />
and delivery transport<br />
manager Jacob Bradbury: “We’re<br />
aiming to make this section<br />
of Stanmore Rd more peoplefriendly<br />
and pleasant for those<br />
who visit the shops and amenities<br />
in the area.<br />
“We’re also focusing on improving<br />
safety for pedestrians<br />
and road users with new bus<br />
stops and bus parking bays, safe<br />
speed platforms at the roundabouts,<br />
footpath resurfacing and<br />
tactile pavers.”<br />
Work began on Monday and<br />
is set to take until mid-March<br />
to complete, with the rest of the<br />
project expected to be wrapped<br />
up by June.<br />
On-street parking on both<br />
sides of the street will be affected<br />
during this time. However,<br />
pedestrians will still be able to<br />
access businesses in the area.<br />
“We’ll need to install temporary<br />
stop-go traffic lights while<br />
we complete this work, with a<br />
one-way system in place between<br />
Worcester St and Hereford St for<br />
the duration,” said Bradbury.<br />
“There will be no left turn<br />
onto Stanmore Rd for those<br />
travelling east on Hereford St,<br />
and for those travelling west<br />
on Hereford St there will be no<br />
right turn onto Stanmore Rd.”<br />

Dancer stepping up to world champs<br />
• By Sasha Watson<br />
LUKE STREET is going to<br />
jig, step and kick his way onto<br />
the stage at the World Irish<br />
Dancing Championships, held<br />
in Glasgow, Scotland, in late<br />
March.<br />
Luke has been training four<br />
times per week with his instructors,<br />
Shannon Dilger and Argene<br />
Flack, at the Southern Cross<br />
Irish Dance School’s new facility<br />
in Phillipstown, and will go to<br />
the championships alongside<br />
fellow dance student, 11-year-old<br />
Cameron Murray.<br />
It will be the Hillmorton<br />
High School year 11 student’s<br />
second time competing at the<br />
world championships, having<br />
competed in Montreal, Canada<br />
last year.<br />
“Being there will be a good<br />
experience, I’ve never been to<br />
Scotland before. While I’d like to<br />
place higher than I did last year,<br />
which was 42nd, getting into the<br />
top 50 per cent would be awesome,”<br />
said the <strong>15</strong>-year-old, who<br />
is from Hoon Hay.<br />
However, travelling to and<br />
from the competition, staying<br />
in accommodation and the cost<br />
of airfares will be expensive –<br />
upwards of $<strong>15</strong>,000.<br />
Luke’s mother Kendra Street<br />
said: “If anyone is keen to donate<br />
and help, that would be amazing.<br />
We have already paid for entry<br />
into the competition, our airfares<br />
HIGH KICKS: Luke Street has been learning Irish dancing<br />
at the Southern Cross Irish Dance school for about five<br />
years and has competed regularly for about two.<br />
are on the credit card and we are<br />
awaiting the council’s response<br />
to Luke’s Youth Development<br />
funding application.<br />
“Finding funding is quite hard<br />
due to him being <strong>15</strong> years old.<br />
Most of the funding requires applicants<br />
to be 16 and older.<br />
“With every . . . donation,<br />
yours or your business name<br />
will be printed onto an ‘I have<br />
your back’ t-shirt, which Luke<br />
STRAIGHT LEGS: Luke<br />
placed 42nd overall in his<br />
first international world<br />
championship last year<br />
held at Montreal, Canada.<br />
will wear out and about to say<br />
thank you to his supporters and<br />
sponsors.”<br />
Luke qualified at the 2023 New<br />
Zealand Irish Dancing national<br />
championships, held at Burnside<br />
High School, having won all<br />
three of his dances for the overall<br />
title and gaining a perfect score<br />
of 300 in the U<strong>15</strong>s age group.<br />
He has been dancing for about<br />
five years at the Southern Cross<br />
Irish Dance School and has<br />
competed regularly for about<br />
two years. Said Street: “We first<br />
went to a boys-only class before<br />
he joined. Luke thought this was<br />
quite a unique and fun dance<br />
and he had rhythm and could<br />
learn the steps. He loves it, when<br />
he first started, he would just<br />
keep dancing all the time.’’<br />
Luke will be competing in<br />
the soft-shoe and hard-shoe<br />
<strong>15</strong>-16-year-old boys categories at<br />
the championship, where, if he<br />
places in the top 50 per per cent,<br />
he will then be eligible to compete<br />
in the set dance category.<br />
There will be a panel of five<br />
adjudicators to judge and score<br />
each dance out of 100 points in<br />
aspects including rhythm and<br />
musicality, turn and crossover,<br />
elevation, speed, power, posture,<br />
carriage and presence.<br />
The overall result is based on<br />
the total points a dancer received<br />
from their three dances.<br />
“Luke has pulled up his socks<br />
in terms of training and his<br />
presentation during the dances.<br />
It was good for him, in his first<br />
world championships last year,<br />
to see the standard of dancing<br />
from all of the other boys, and<br />
learn what he needs to do,” said<br />
Street.<br />

“We wanted to create something that<br />
helped bring our community together,<br />
just show that unity and also to encourage<br />
our tamariki to see what they could get<br />
involved in.”<br />
Baxendell was delighted with the great<br />
community support for the event held on<br />
Tuesday last week. The key sponsors were<br />
the Home Foundation, Tangata Atumotu<br />
Trust and the Waitai Coastal-Burwood-<br />
Linwood Community Board, which<br />
allowed all the activities to be free.<br />
And with major redevelopments planned<br />
for the seaside suburb over the next year,<br />
there’s confidence the community will be<br />
able to stage an even bigger festival next<br />
