Family connections run deeper

than most at one retirement

community.

Despite the saying “Mum

knows best”, if Arvida Park Lane

resident Pat Wadley needs a

hand, she can call on her daughter

Sharon Rayner, who works

in the same village as a wellness

partner.

And if Rayner needs advice,

she often turns to her daughter,

Aleshia Wansbrough, Pat’s

granddaughter, who is Arvida’s

general manager of wellness

and care and a former Park

Lane village manager.

The closeness Star, January doesn’t 23, 2025 end

there. Rayner lives just across

the road from Wansbrough,

meaning the three generations

are never far apart.

Pat moved into the village in

Addington with her husband

Bruce seven months ago, joining

a community The Star, January that 23, was 2025 already

familiar.

Rayner has worked at Arvida

Park Lane for 11 years, while

Wansbrough spent six years as

village manager and, despite

her new role, remains a regular

visitor.

Their Star, bond January goes 23, beyond 2025 proximity.

Wansbrough describes

her grandmother as one of her

greatest role models.

“Nan is incredibly warm,

smart, funny, and so deeply

caring,” she said.

“She has this way of making

people feel better just by talking

to them – you leave her presence

lighter than when you arrived.”

Rayner, who has worked in

aged care since she was 15, said

it is a privilege to support her

parents.

“My approach has always

been about treating people

the way you’d want your own

family treated – with kindness,

patience, and genuine care,” she

said.

“That’s something mum taught

me without ever needing to say

it.”

Before becoming a resident,

Pat was already a familiar face

around the village.

As a former pub owner

in Twizel, she often used

her hospitality skills to help

Wansbrough welcome visitors

during apartment open days.

“She’s always belonged here in

some way,” Wansbrough said.

When it came time to choose a

village, family ties were not the

deciding factor.

Sharon Rayner, left, is a wellness partner at Arvida Park Lane, where her mother Pat Wadley is a resident. Sharon’s daughter,

Aleshia Wansbrough, right, is Arvida’s general manager of wellness and care and a former Park Lane village manager —

making it three generations connected to the same retirement village.

“We really did our homework,”

Wansbrough said.

“In the end, it came down to

where we knew Nan and Pop

would feel supported, comfortable,

and truly at home.”

Now living in a care suite, Pat

keeps busy with exercise classes

– which she has affectionately

renamed “shake your bum bum”

– helping set up the dining room

and spending time in the garden,

often trying (unsuccessfully) to

convince her daughter and granddaughter

to join her.

She is quick to point out there

is no special treatment because of

her family connections.

The trio are planning to celebrate

Mother’s Day together with

facials and brunch.

“The three of us have always

been close, and we have a lovely

time together,” Pat said.

“There is something very

comforting having your starnews.co.nz family

close by.”

Ryder ready to make his

A Papanui High School student

is about to embark on the next

stage of his rapidly developing

motorcycle racing career.

Ryder Chamberlain, 14,

is preparing to make his

international debut in the

final round of the Oceania

Junior Cup at the Queensland

Raceway in June.

The year 10 student’s venture

is being supported by the

newly established Superbike

Pathways Foundation,

which has been set up by

New Zealand Superbike

Championship promoter Mike

Marsden and Christchurchraised

former international

motorcycle racer Stu Avant.

Ryder will be accompanied

in Australia by his father Stu

Masters, and hosted by Avant

and his wife Bec.

"I'm excited and really

appreciate the opportunity

the foundation and the Avants

have given me," Ryder said.

"I spent time with Stu during

the national series where he

mentored and advised me.

"I think he sees a little of his

early self in me, growing up

in Christchurch, in love with

bikes and trying hard to make

a go of racing."

The Oceania Junior Cup

targets aspiring young riders

and is regarded as the first step

in identifying and developing

the next generation of

international riders.

Masters said Ryder knows he

will be facing a high level of

competition.

"These are the best young

riders in the Oceania region,"

Masters said.

"They will be at their peak by

the final round, and Ryder is

aware of that.

"Stu (is) backing Ryder and

shown confidence in him, and

this is the big break every

young rider dreams about."

Ryder goes into the Oceania

Why I Started Better Hearing Co

By Sam Sloane, Audiologist & Owner

I started Better Hearing Co with a very clear

goal: to create a hearing clinic that I would feel

completely comfortable sending my own

family to.

After more than a decade working as an

audiologist, I saw firsthand how many people felt

rushed, confused, or unsure about their hearing

care. Too often, appointments were focused on

products rather than people. Conversations were

hurried. Explanations were unclear. And decisions

were made before clients truly understood their

options.

I knew there was a better way.

Better Hearing Co was built to offer something

different — a calm, professional environment

where people can take the time to properly

understand their hearing, ask questions, and feel

confident in the decisions they make.

Here, there are no sales targets.

No pressure. Just honest, expert advice.

The Way

We Were

After attacks by striking workers, special constables were deployed to escort trams. An especially violent attack on a

Fitzgerald Ave tram led to the arrest of 19 tramway workers. Pictured right, tramway workers step from a prisoner transport

into the Christchurch magistrate’s court.

PHOTOS: CHRISTCHURCH STAR/ CANTERBURYSTORIES.NZ

After celebrations were delayed for a day

by acting Prime Minister Walter Nash,

Christchurch took to the streets on May

9 to mark Victory in Europe Day with a

crowd in excess of 25,000 gathering in

Cathedral Square.

THIS WEEK IN HISTORY

May 4-11

Christchurch Tramway Strike

On May 4, 1932, the Christchurch Tramway Strike erupted against the grim

backdrop of the Great Depression, when economic hardship was intensifying

tensions between workers and employers. Tramway employees walked off the job

after negotiations with the Christchurch Tramway Board collapsed. The immediate

trigger was the dismissal of union president Jock Mathison and other officials, but

the dispute also reflected wider grievances over wages and working conditions. With

trams the city’s primary mode of public transport, the sudden halt in services left

thousands of commuters stranded and disrupted daily life across Christchurch.

What began as a peaceful protest quickly escalated. Early on the first morning

of the strike, hundreds of workers and supporters gathered near the Moorhouse

Ave tram sheds, intent on preventing services from resuming with non-union labour.

Tensions flared as strikers identified employees who had refused to join the walkout,

and violence broke out. Windows were smashed, stones were thrown, and improvised

clubs were used as clashes erupted between the crowd and police, who responded

with batons. The unrest continued the following day, when a tram travelling along

Fitzgerald Ave was bombarded with rocks, injuring the driver and prompting further

confrontations. Reinforced by ‘special constables’ – civilians sworn in to support law

enforcement — police eventually dispersed the crowds, and 19 people were arrested.

Over the next several days, sporadic skirmishes continued as tramcars and

depots were targeted, and authorities took increasingly robust measures to maintain

operations. Trams ran under police escort, depots were fortified, and more special

constables were deployed. However, as the disruption dragged on and violence

mounted, public sympathy began to shift away from the strikers. Facing growing

opposition, the union called off the strike on May 10, although it was not formally

concluded until May 17.

Victory in Europe Day

On May 9, 1945, Christchurch celebrated Victory in Europe Day, with scenes

of relief, celebration and reflection as the war in Europe finally came to an end.

News of Germany’s surrender had reached New Zealand on the morning of May

8. Morning newspapers carried banner headlines, and a festive mood quickly

spread. Yet celebrations were briefly held in check after acting Prime Minister

Walter Nash instructed the country to wait until the official announcement from

British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, which was not broadcast in New Zealand

until 1am on May 9.

The delay created a strange sense of anticipation. As one contemporary

observation noted, “the feeling of victory was in the air, but no-one was inclined to

let off steam without official authorisation.” When the announcement finally came

through in the early hours of the May 9, Christchurch was ready.

By morning, the city had transformed. A public holiday was declared, schools

closed, and large, orderly crowds poured into Cathedral Square, the focal point

of the day’s events. More than 25,000 people marched into the square in a mass

show of unity, while a 21-gun salute boomed out across Hagley Park. Community

singing, speeches and civic services added to the sense of occasion, as residents

marked the long-awaited victory in Europe with both jubilation and dignity.
