Plan to have Bishopdale Library completed by early 2017 BY ANDREW KING The new Bishopdale Library and Community Facility should be built by March 2017. The $4m project will be built on the Bishopdale Creche site in the mall. The existing building could be sold ‘as is where is’ or demolished and retained by the city council as a cleared site. Project manager Matt Cummins said the time frames are their best estimate at this stage in the project. Currently there is a temporary library in a small shop space in the mall. Fendalton-Waimairi Community Board member Sally Buck said it was great that the plans have take into account what the community wanted. “There has been community representatives on the working party that has met several times to have input into the siting and plans.â€? •Turn to page 2

The Christchurch Primary Schools Cultural Festival offers one of the only children’s multicultural experiences offered on a city-wide scale, which has been developed from grass roots level in Christchurch. When Cotswold pupils were asked about their upcoming performance Ashton Thackwell said: “I am going to try and break the stage by being as loud as I can go.” Other pupils were “excited about being a leader” and “looking forward to representing the school.” Jessica Harris is “excited about starting and leading the songs” and Janaya Pekapo “just can’t wait to have fun.” Cotswold School is performing in the final concert on Friday evening.
Plan to have library completed by early 2017 •From page 1 The community board contributed $500,000 towards the project, as a result of two applications by the board to the city council’s Capital Endowment Fund.

Papanui Rd repairs under way BY ANDREW KING Work has began on Papanui Rd to repair damaged wastewater infrastructure. The road between Clare Rd and Derby St will have extensive work done to repair sections of the earthquake-damaged wastewater main and laterals, this will take about two months to complete. The work may result in increased dust, noise and vibration between 7am-6pm while the repairs are being carried out. Some residents may have their driveways blocked for around a week, if this is going to happen they will be notified prior by either a door knock or by a note in the letter box. Two-way traffic will be maintained on Papanui Rd around the work site. There will be no right turning out of Derby St onto Papanui Rd for the duration of the work. There will be no right turning out of Rastrick St onto Papanui Rd for the duration of the work. Cycle lane closures will also be in place on Papanui Rd to make room for the work site.
▌IN ▌ BRIEF Youth fund rules
The Fendalton-Waimairi Community Board has made some changes to the eligibility rules around its Youth Development Fund. A discussion was held regarding the suggestion that the number of applications per person be limited to three, however, on reviewing the implications the board resolved only one application per person is permitted per year and the upper age limit for the fund be increased from 20 to 22.
Number a vehicles that use Papanui Rd north of Bealey Ave (south of Clare Rd)
Gardiners Rd one-way
Gardiners Rd in Bishopdale will remain one-way until next month as Orion work on the Northern Loop Cable. An Orion spokesman said: “While the work is weatherdependent, Orion expects to have it complete by the end of the month.”
Four day weekday average 21,000 vehicles/day Morning peak (7-9am) 1480 vehicles/hr Afternoon peak (4-6pm) 1550 vehicles/hr
Resident access may be restricted for up to three days while wastewater lateral repairs are under way. Parking on the street will not be available immediately next to the work area. Driveway access may be restricted for about one week. Some sections of the wastewater main are more damaged than others, this means a number of different repair methods will be used to fully renew the wastewater system.

Teaching Mandarin: Preparing young Annelise Borger is on a mission to teach Mandarin Chinese to students. Next year she will begin teaching it at Emmanuel Christian School and hopes to inspire other teachers to follow in her footsteps. Reporter Andrew King speaks with her
How long have you been teaching? This is my third year teaching Chinese (Mandarin) at Middleton Grange. This is my second year full time. The first year was just four hours a week. Where did you study? I did my Bachelor of Arts majoring in Chinese at Canterbury University. I then did my Graduate Diploma of teaching at Victoria, I didn’t go to Wellington for that I did it all online. What is your background with the Chinese language? Hmm, good question. I never learnt Chinese at school but had a lot of friends from Japan and Korea, so I knew that I worked well with international students. My sister encouraged me to do it mainly because she was living in
China at the time. She was teaching English over there. I soon realised that more Kiwis need to learn this language. Have you wanted to be a teacher when you were young? When I was young I said I didn’t want to become a teacher, my mum is a teacher so is my brother and my sister is too, I guess it is in the blood. So basically your whole family are teachers, what does your dad do? [Laughing] He is an engineer, not a teacher. So if you didn’t want to be a teacher what changed your mind? The increasing number in Chinese-speaking people in New Zealand means that for Kiwis, once they learn it, they can actually use it here, they don’t have to go overseas to use it. It’s really important for Kiwis to know there are so many opportunities on our back doorstep. It is a real language of the future and that made me want to teach it to people. What is your best memory from school? It wasn’t the academic side, even though I was pretty good at that. For me, it was all the extra stuff we used to do. I was always working with overseas students. The extracurricular activities were great too. I enjoyed the academic stuff but not as much as the sport, music and art stuff. Were there many Chinese-
speaking kids when you were at school? I went Middleton Grange, now I teach there, I loved it so much that I came back. We have an international college that had around 200 odd students before the earthquakes. It dropped down to about 100, but now it is coming back up which is great. What was it like learning a different language? I had only learnt French briefly up until year 10 I think. I thought I would be able to be fluent a lot quicker, but it’s really cool, getting your head around the characters and symbols. I learnt Spanish at uni as well but I find Chinese easier. I kept thinking about Spanish words as Chinese words so it all got pretty confusing there for a while. Were you born in Christchurch? Born in Auckland, moved to Australia for a couple of years then settled in Christchurch. What was it like growing up with your siblings? Because I was the youngest I was often left out by the others, I did a lot of playing by myself. Now we hang out a lot and get on, age doesn’t matter anymore. What was the last thing you all did together? We all go to the same church every weekend. We went to Castle Hill about a month ago for a weekend and caught up, went walking, hung out. It was good.

Kiwis for the future
Students celebrating Samoan culture
IN CLASS: Annelise Borger catches the attention of her class with Chinese characters. Next year she will have four different classes to teach.
Why work for Christian schools, are you religious? Yes, I’m a Christian. That’s why I wanted to work for Middleton. It has an awesome supportive environment. You get to teach what you believe and not what is just in your head but in your heart as well. How does that come into your teaching style? Here at Middleton we have a big focus on making people feel welcome, we don’t want to leave anyone out. By learning about different cultures we can make everyone feel more included. Some Chinese characters can point back to biblical times which give it a special little link for us. We want to tell other Christians the ‘good news’ so it is another way we can
share the gospel with them. Do the students respond well to that? Yes they do so we can make that instant connection. Share your cultures together so we can acknowledge that, making a bridge between the two cultures. The programme will have you moving around four schools, that will be difficult won’t it? I guess it will be. I am the only one that can do it at the moment. I don’t know many other people like me. I will be trying to train people up as I go. The other schools are only starting with an hour or two each week so it will be hard at the start. At the moment I have an assistant, he helps me out a lot. He makes sure I am
5
on the right track, teaching them proper Chinese. Are you married? Yeah, I got married at the end of 2013. My older sister in her early 30s got married in September that year, then it was me in December, then my brother in January. All three of you got married in a five-month period, were they all in Christchurch? They were all in Christchurch. I think our guests had to pick and chose which one they went to (laughing). Do you have any children of your own? I don’t have any kids myself – not while teaching. The principal said I can’t have any while I am teaching as well (laughing). Where do you see it taking you?
I hope to build the programmes here at Middleton Grange through years 7-13. It is currently only for years 7-9 at the moment, but I hope to have that going by 2019. The other schools – Hillview Christian and Aidanfield Christian Schools will start next year and go from years 7-10 then hopefully they feed into Middleton Grange. Also I would like to take the years 11, 12 and 13 over to China for a class trip. Hopefully you can find another person in that class to help you teach Chinese to future students. Yeah, that would be great. I would love to be the inspiration that gets another teacher in Chinese – we need more of them in New Zealand.
Hundreds of Samoan university students have arrived in Christchurch for competitions and celebration of Samoan culture. So’otaga 2015 will run from August 28 to September 2 and feature academic, cultural and sporting competitions and a Christian rally. University of Canterbury Samoan Students’ Association president Tumama Tu’ulua said the Christchurch event is the biggest ever gathering of university Samoan student associations from across New Zealand. The 35th conference will draw students from Victoria University of Wellington, Waikato University, Auckland University, AUT and the University of Canterbury, which is hosting this year’s event for the first time since 2010. “Usually around 130 students participate, but this year we are expecting more than 220 students – I think they are attracted by the opportunity to visit the South Island and see what Christchurch has to offer,” Tu’ulua said. Tu’ulua said the event is a lifechanging experience for many Samoan students – especially South Islanders. Tickets for the Cultural Night tonight cost $5 (plus booking fee) and are available online from Eventopia – all other events are free. A detailed schedule is on the UCSA website http://ucsa.org.nz/ events/sootaga/

Selwyn House School has put on a performance to remember. This year’s production of Peter Pan gave pupils a chance to stretch their creative wings and take flight. The challenge set by director Therese Bierwirth was for the pupils to use their imaginations to captivate the audience with their performance without using ropes, pulleys, harnesses and other contraptions.
SERIOUS: Eliza Meekings played a mean Captain Hook.
NO ORDINARY BOY: Georgina Scott plays Peter Pan the boy who never grew up.
SUBDUED: Peter Pan gets the better of Captain Hook. CHIEF: Zelle Logan played Chief Tiger Bamboo in the Selwyn House production.
BATTLE: Peter Pan and Captain Hook cross swords. MULTI-TALENTED: Jessica Tavendale played three roles in the production, two of fairies and one as an Indian dancer.

Teen triumphs in Golden Gloves
Our Lady of Fatima’s senior netball side competed in the Canterbury primary schools netball tournament last Thursday, and finished eighth in Pool A.

BY KYLE KNOWLES St Bede’s student Kaelan Boyce is the Australian Golden Gloves champion. He won the under-52kg division at the championships held in Brisbane last weekend. The 16-year-old beat New South Wales’ Bradley Collins in the final. Kaelan said it was a good fight. “It was pretty fun I smoked him all three rounds. I was just moving forward and making sure he didn’t have any room to move.” With that belt around his waist he is now in Russia this week at the World Junior Boxing Championships. He was due to fly out over the weekend for the champs which start overnight on Wednesday. Kaelan said the win in Australia has given him the confidence to go a long way in the World Championships. Kaelan’s Redwood Boxing Club coach, Julian Scully said he performed very well in Australia and it was great preparation for the big championships. “He went very well, he put plenty of pressure on and didn’t give the opponent any chance to get into the fight. “He’s definitely got the confi-
CHAMP: Kaelan Boyce won the Australian Golden Gloves under-52kg division. PHOTO: NICOLE RANDALL dence, he’s not losing that. But now he’s got a tough job ahead of him but we’ve had a full preparation and he is confident.” Scully said the big work-on for Kaelan has been his footwork which is always improving. Kaelan only took up boxing four years ago and was a national champion within a year of his first fight. He needed to raise about $6000 and had more than $1500 worth of donations through a Givealittle page. Kaelan is one of two Christ-
church teens heading to the world champs. The other is Junior Acero from the A-Town Boxing Club who is a student at Shirley Boys’ High School. Junior was also at the Australian Golden Gloves last weekend where he finished second, being beaten by Ben Cameron-Hands in the final of the under-50kg weight division. The draw for the world champs has yet to take place and both boxers won’t find out who they are fighting until they arrive in Russia.

Five make karate team
Five of the Nor’West’s best martial artists have been named in the New Zealand team to compete at the Goju World Karate Open Grade Championships. The event is being held in Auckland in November which is the first time it has been held in New Zealand. The five selected were Jade Taylor (right) of Redwood, Adriana Nicolaie of Mairehau, Sophie Savill of St Albans and siblings Nadia and Reid Edmond of Papanui.
All of the karatekas are members of the Jitsueikai Club in Tuam Street. Michelle Taylor, mother of Jade, said she was very proud of her daughter for making it. She said Jade was pretty proud herself too and was stoked when she heard the news. The Papanui High School student has been doing karate since she was six and went along after her cousin was already a part of a karate club.

Anxiety and breathing – are they related? When good breathing goes bad
H • • • • • • • • • • • •
ave you experienced any of these breathing difficulty symptoms? • Disturbed sleep • Erratic heartbeats* Feeling anxious and uptight Upset gut/nausea Chest pains* Shattered confidence Tired all the time Achy muscles and joints Dizzy spells* or feeling spaced out Irritability or hypervigilance Frequent yawning and sighing Breathing discomfort* Pins and needles Feelings of ‘air hunger’
*Check with your doctor if you experience these symptoms.
These questions are asked on the website www.BradCliff.com. BradCliff was started by North Island physiotherapists Dinah Bradley and Tania Cliffton Smith, who specialise in hyperventilation and anxiety treatment. Their website notes one in 10 people experience some form of breathing pattern disorder or chronic over breathing at some time in their lives, resulting in a range of disturbing or frightening symptoms puzzling to you and your doctor. You feel unwell because of overbreathing,
and overbreathing makes you feel unwell. A vicious cycle is established, which is a major stress all by itself. This is experienced currently by many Cantabrians, says Ietje van Stolk of Physical Sense Gym & Physio. As she explains, it is normal to breathe fast and in the upper chest when we are in danger and fight or flight is needed. We know all about that here, due to the earthquakes. Normally, once the danger is gone, our breathing should restore itself within a couple of days. We would then be using the diaphragm for our normal nonstressed
super low prices
breathing. We have been having a hard time restoring our breathing pattern here in Canterbury because every time our body tried to achieve that, the next aftershock came rolling in. Even though the aftershocks have significantly diminished, some people’s fight or flight mode breathing has become chronic, or habitual, Ietje says. And, as she points out, using the wrong muscles for breathing means these overworked muscles cause headaches, neck pain and jaw pain. With fast upper chest breathing, sighing and yawning, the resulting disturbance of our oxygen and carbon dioxide levels can give us the feeling we are not able to control our own body. One moment you are are feeling fine, next moment your chest feels tight, you feel out of breath, your heart beats erratically and you may even experience dizziness and/or tingling. Very scary if you do not understand what is happening. No wonder this causes anxiety. Not being the boss over our own
body makes us anxious, anxiety feeds the faulty breathing pattern, and so it goes on. The BradCliff physiotherapists have established a national network of practitioners that regularly train together and can help you overcome this problem. Physical Sense is part of that network. To make an appointment phone 377 2577.

ecently, they have received several queries through their website from people who are suffering from pain that began either suddenly or over a short period of time and want to know what they should do. “Some of our clients suffer from a muscle strain that simply won’t heal; others get sudden pain when they are picking up a

jug or reaching into the back of the car. Sometimes the cause of these symptoms is an injured tendon. “Tendons are the tough fibres that connect our muscles to our bones.

by physiotherapists like us. We will do a thorough assessment of your injury and then work with you using a variety of different methods to get you back to doing the things you want to do. “One of the first questions we are asked is, how long it will take a client to recover? This varies widely, depending on many different factors. Generally after you’ve had an initial assessment with your physio, your physio will discuss your treatment plan with you and follow up appointments are scheduled as and when needed. “If you think you might have injured your tendon, contact us at one of our clinics: Bishopdale on 03 360 3606, or Hereford Street (opposite the Arts Centre) on 03 961 0236. Both have free car parking. We are here to diagnose, treat and help prevent future damage.”
find that often, it is the result of many tiny tears to the tendon which have happened over time. Many of our clients who suffer from tendinopathy have to make the same motions over and over in their jobs, sports, or daily activites, but anyone can suffer from an injured tendon. “They come to us when the area affected feels sore, stiff, is losing strength and stopping them from doing the things they want to do. Their pain may get worse when they use the affected area and they often have pain and stiffness during the night or first thing in the morning. “If you have symptoms similar to these, what can you do about it? If you suspect you’ve damaged a tendon, it’s important to seek help from a medical professional. Tendon injuries are commonly treated
These stunning lovebite full upper and lower dentures have been expertly crafted by internationally-recognised dental technician Richard Greenlees at his Christchurch studio. The combination of Richard’s skill, experience (including 15 years in London’s prestigious Harley Street) knowledge and revolutionary techniques allow him to create beautiful bespoke false teeth that truly resemble those in nature and reflect each patient’s individuality and unique character.

Papanui’s Past
Still Pedalling!
Memorial avenues BY CHRISTINE GRANT In the third installment of the series on the memorial avenues of Papanui, we look at Alpha Ave, Hartley Ave, Halton St, Lansbury Ave and Tillman Ave. Alpha Ave This was formerly known as St Andrew Ave because of its proximity to St Andrew’s College. The change of name is thought to have been because of confusion with St Andrews Square of which it was the continuation. St Andrews Ave first appeared in street directories in 1925. Alpha is the first letter of the Greek alphabet and in the system of Greek numerals, it has a value of one. In English, the noun ‘alpha’ is used as a synonym for ‘beginning’ or ‘first’ (in a series) so was this to be the first in a series of streets with Greek names or did it symbolise the beginning of St Andrews Square? Hartley Ave This was originally St Andrews Tce, also named for its proximity to St Andrew’s College. It was re-named in 1938 after Leonard Brannon Hart who lived in Hawthorne St. His property was subdivided to form these streets. Leonard was a descendant of
Michael and Mary Hart who had arrived in Lyttelton on the ’Cressy’ in 1850. Halton St Halton Rd was named after “Lady Halton” the estate of Joseph Ick in Salop, Shropshire, England. Joseph’s son, Charles Ick lived in Papanui Rd from 1870. He was the mayor of Christchurch in 1879 and 1880. Charles arrived in Dunedin in 1857 and had a drapery business before taking up farming at Waikouaiti. He came to Christchurch in 1870 and was an auctioneer until he retired in 1883. Halton Rd became Halton St in 1936. Lansbury Ave Named after George Lansbury (1859-1940) a British Labour politician, socialist Christian pacifist and newspaper editor. He was leader of the British Labour Party 1931-1935. Lansbury Ave first appeared in street directories in 1943. Why was a street in Papanui named after an English politician? Tillman Ave Tillman Ave was formerly School Lane and School Rd, named because it led to the Blighs Road School (later Waimairi School). School Lane first appeared in

The Salvation Army opens new church location
Come worship and serve with the Salvation Army. The Belfast corps officially closed on August 16 and has reopened at the school hall in the Northcote Primary School.
T
hey also have a new name, The Salvation Army Christchurch North, as their goal is to branch out to include a wider community area. The Sally’s overall vision is to provide a church in the neighborhood where the people meet. This location provides a place of comfort from all storms, a place of refuge, a place of friendship and a place to worship. Join them Monday to Thursday at their weekly activities which are remaining for the time being at their current building until they can secure a new place to relocate to in the Redwood area. Weekly activities include: • Healthy Eating Co-op - $12 a week for 8kg of fresh fruit and vege! Pay before 10am on the Monday of the week you want to pick up your veggies and then come and pick them up on Wednesday of the same week, between 11.30am and 1.30pm • Pastoral care, prayer and support • Welfare – food bank, clothing, furniture • Family stores – they have two stores, 520 Cranford Street and 30 Main North Road, Papanui • Community family fun nights – once a month, call 323 8257 for more details
As well as these activities, they are heavily involved in two of the local primary schools, Northcote and Redwood. Besides providing weekly support to their staff, they are involved in a reading group for students at Redwood, and they run a drama club and garden table programme to teach kids how to grow vegetables and then cook them at Northcote. Come one, come all and join pastors Neil and Gill Waugh, and ministry assistants Andrew and Kim McKerrow for activities
or worship. The team would also like to welcome Iain and Nicky Millar who have joined them from Napier and brought their vast wealth of experience in community outreach programmes. They look forward to seeing you and welcome you with open arms. Join them on Sunday at 26 Tuckers Road in the Northcote Primary School hall. Worship starts at 10 am.

Let The Glenn Miller Orchestra take you on a sentimental journey. The Glenn Miller Orchestra with Musical Director Rick Gerber, return to NZ following their triumphant 2013 tour when they took the country by storm in what was one of the largest international concert tours in recent years. The orchestra will again perform nationwide at 22 different locations between Kerikeri in the north and Invercargill down south. After 26 sell-out shows in 2013, the Glenn Miller Orchestra returns to New Zealand from October 8 to November 8, 2015. This time, the band honours the year of the ANZAC Centenary on a whistle stop tour to 22 different locations around New Zealand. With this great lineup of America’s finest musicians including Moonlight Serenade Singers and the Broadway Swing Dancers. In the Spirit of ANZAC, the concert will also feature iconic music and songs from the years of the Great War. The Glenn Miller Orchestra occupies the whole show! That’s 2-hours of Glenn Miller's great music that continues to captivate millions. Re-live dozens of the classics played from the original arrangements - hits that include Chattanooga Choo Choo, A String of Pearls, Tuxedo Junction, Moonlight Serenade, Little Brown Jug and the greatest Miller hit of all time, In The Mood. Don't miss this out! Plays Horncastle Arena on Saturday 31st October, 7.30pm. Tickets on sale now at Ticketek.
