Mural theme encapsulates school values Elmwood Normal School canvassed its students to see how it could portray the school’s values as well as sending out a distinct Kiwiana theme. Graffiti artist Brandon Warrell from Slendergents Graffiti Murals worked with a group of nine year 6 pupils who spoke to him about what they believed were the core school values. He took photos of the pupils to inspire his creation. Pupil Annabelle Irvine said it’s really unique that Elmwood have a mural from our school values while Thomas Peacock-Price liked how it is inspiring.

Development plan for unused land „„ By Andrew King UNUSED RURAL land in Papanui could be fast tracked for more housing and reduce the need for residential intensification in the area. The city council is considering working with Regenerate Christchurch on a plan for the land and possibly using the provisions of the Greater Christchurch Regeneration Act to speed-up its development.
It has instructed chief executive Karleen Edwards to investigate what steps needed to be taken to allow that to happen. City council head of planning and strategic transport Richard Osborne said the land in question was not currently within Christchurch’s urban limits and had not been considered for rezoning before because there had been unresolved issues around the stormwater basin and the
Northern Arterial Extension. “With those matters now resolved, a review of the zoning and alternative uses for the land could be considered,� he said. The 50ha of land sits at the upper end of the western side of Cranford St, close to Northlands Shopping Centre. Shirley-Papanui Community Board chairman Mike Davidson said it was a “better option� than adding high-rise buildings in
Hot Hot Deal Hot on 8KW Hot Heat PumP
Papanui that would put strain on current infrastructure. “We have a lot of people pushing back on intensification in Papanui so this is a really good opportunity to take unused land and build more housing,� he said. Residential intensification is defined as the development or redevelopment of an existing building, site or area at a density higher than what cur-

rently exists. Mr Davidson said he was not against residential intensification but believed it should start in the CBD. “While we don’t want to create urban sprawl, intensification should start in the CBD,� he said.

FRUIT AND vegetables should not be as expensive as what they are. Thankfully there is a social enterprise in the city that is ensuring more people get their five-plus a day. Good Together was born out of the earthquakes and is now supplying more than 2000 orders a week. Check out their story on page 4. This week’s long read, on pages 6 and 7, is on a motor-cycle racing Canterbury University researcher. Alex O’Keefe chats to reporter Hannah Samson-Barry on his latest project involving bringing artist Len Lye’s works to life. Our regular columnist, Fire Risk Management officer Mark Thomas, says a colleague is “fair game” after he called in a car fire when it turned out to be steam. But, he said, they would rather get 10 false alarms than not get a phone call to a fire that quickly escalates. Have a good week.

Graffiti still a problem
ST ALBANS east is one of only six graffiti saturated sites in the city according to results from the annual graffiti scan carried out by the city council. In the survey the area had a total of 231 tags out of 1531 citywide. Saturated sites are areas where 10 or more tags are seen. They have dropped significantly across the city from 21 sites in 2015 and 109 in 2014. St Albans Residents Association co-chairwoman Emma Twaddell said there was a bit of graffiti around the area. “A wall by the St Albans School gets tagged every weekend and there is a bit in the Edgeware Village,” she said. Results from the annual graffiti scan, carried out by the city council’s graffiti programme, shows a 48 per cent decrease in tagging and other graffiti from 2015 around the city. It follows a 52 per cent drop in graffiti seen around the city in the 2015 scan compared to the previous year. Russley was the biggest success story with a 100 per cent decrease in tagging found, something that has never hap-

pened before. Graffiti team leader Valerie Merryweather said the results were positive but did not necessarily mean there was less graffiti being carried out. “There has been a big increase in reporting of tagging from an army of volunteer graffiti spotters and other residents. And the city council’s
‘Snap, Send, Solve’ app meant that up to 600 tagging reports were being received from the public each month,” she said. Ms Merryweather said the fact that they have volunteers and neighbourhood policing teams out helping has made a big dent in the graffiti problem. Community patrol volunteer groups in the city, Sum-
ner, Burwood, Pegasus, Riccarton and Hornby are being issued with a smart phone so they can use the Snap, Send, Solve app to report graffiti. HAVE YOUR SAY: Is graffiti in St Albans getting worse or better? Share your views with us. Email andrew.king@starmedia. kiwi

McMaster Heap
Veterinary practice
BLOOD SAVES LIVES Steve Heap, at McMaster & Heap, has recently performed 2 blood transfusions in 5 days on young dogs at the Practice, both cases in his own time. This procedure isn’t common practice but when you have a patient presented pale, collapsed and bleeding out essentially, you have to be geared up to immediately transfuse. You also need a capable skilled team around you as this isn’t a one person job as you’ll see below. A blood transfused patient needs to be intensively monitored by a nurse to make sure we don’t get transfusion reactions ( ie tremors, vomiting, labored breathing, swelling and skin reactions, seizures, coma or cardiac arrest). The important things are having a team capable of performing the transfusion and closely monitoring the patient for reactions. “Poppy” the Hungarian Visla made a full recovery after her near death experience of ingesting rat bait. “Bella” the Airedale unfortunately wasn’t so lucky. She initially improved, but after a few weeks of intensive care and huge amounts of love, was very sadly put to sleep after complications with her kidneys. This article is specially dedicated to Bella. Obviously both cases required blood fast. A dog can take another dogs blood ONCE without being cross matched to check blood type. We obtained 500mls of blood and 200mls of plasma for Bella from the After Hours clinic on a Sunday and Steve obtained 400mls of blood from Clive, a German Short haired pointer, for Poppy. We have the transfusion bags and filters at work and the blood is delivered slowly via IVF pumps over 2-3 hours. A vet must sit with the patient the entire time and monitor vitals. The blood is delivered via large bore catheter into the cephalic vein. Both dogs accepted the procedure well – admittedly both were very ill. Having blood readily available is helpful. We didn’t but luckily were able to source it fast. In the past I’ve used Lola for obtaining blood from but since she’s had cancer and received chemotherapy, she now isn’t a suitable candidate. Six year old Bella presented initially for unexplained bleeding from her bowel. After a lengthy work up involving blood testing, radiographs, abdominal ultrasound, bladder catheterization and intensive care monitoring, she deteriorated quickly and needed a blood transfusion in the hope it would save her life. She was losing large amounts of blood from her urinary system and large bowel. Her kidneys were failing, she was depressed and inappetant. Despite intravenous fluids and over 10 different medications she was still deteriorating. We still don’t really know what caused the huge blood loss but the transfusion initially helped, providing her with clotting factors, blood and an immune system to fight whatever was going on.
NOR’WEST NEWS
Poppy, the 14 month old Visla, knibbled on RAT BAIT 3 days before presenting near death. This poison destroys platelets and coagulation factors and causes their victims to bleed to death because they can’t clot blood. Within hours Poppy would have died due to blood loss into her chest, preventing oxygenation and ventilation. She presented collapsed, was as white as a sheet and in total respiratory distress – she couldn’t breathe at all. Our amazing team moved quickly, calling in Steve and Kirsty who worked together over 4 hours – Kirsty draining the blood from her chest ( the blood was around her lungs) and Steve transfusing her with Clive’s blood. She was monitored by two nurses throughout the procedure. Her recovery was instantaneous – after being transfused she basically leapt into the back of the car, totally transformed. She was monitored carefully at the After Hours clinic that evening and returned to us the next day. These two cases highlight to me the need for speed and urgency in seeing these cases ( whether it be late at night or over a weekend), dedication to our patients, commitment to our clients and skilled and passionate professionals prepared to go the extra mile. Our nurse took the call from Poppy’s owner seriously, late on a Thursday night when we were getting ready to close. At that stage we had no idea Poppy had ingested rat bait. She was just quiet and very lethargic. Not the norm for a 14 month old Visla! Our nurse also asked the colour of Poppy’s gums and was told they were white!! This raised alarm bells. Our consulting vet that night was fully booked until 7pm so our nurse called Steve, who immediately responded to the call.
By Tom Doudney A SOCIAL enterprise supplying low cost fruit and vegetables which started in Bryndwr has taken off across the city and is now spreading around the country. Reverend Craig Dixon started Food Together as a non-profit fruit and vegetable co-operative about 30 years ago when he was vicar of Bryndwr Anglican Church. “It started as a need in an area of kind of low socioeconomic households who were faced with limited income and a limited knowledge of what to do with a number of fresh food products,” he said. After operating the single hub in Bryndwr for many years, Mr Dixon decided to expand the service following the 2010 and 2011 earthquakes. “We contacted a number of churches, as we generally work through churches and community groups, out around the east where the need was
KEEPING IT FRESH: St Albans Food Together hub volunteer Anne Powley.
greatest and we started to supply produce out there,” he said. Since the earthquakes, Food Together has gone from having one Christchurch hub to seven, and from supplying about 140 orders a week to more than 2000. The main hubs are in Bryndwr, New Brighton, Opawa, Rangiora, Oxford, St Albans and Hoon Hay, with about 40 other smaller distribution points around the city. People pre-order a mixed bag of fruit and vegetables for between $12 and $15
and then pick it up. Mr Dixon said the prices were typically about 40 per cent below retail price. Food Together Hubs have also opened in Auckland and Hamilton and Mr Dixon said other groups in Wellington, Dunedin and Timaru, while not using the Food Together name, had been inspired by the concept. Mr Dixon said he didn’t see the need for the service disappearing anytime soon. “Generally I think the price of produce is increasing,” he said.
A special mention must be made to the dedicated clients who trusted in us and allowed us a chance at saving their dogs by giving blood, which in itself isn’t without risks. When we undertake a transfusion, we have no real idea of outcome but we all do our very best. Our patients all deserve a chance. Dr Michele McMaster

News Flying fox removed By Fraser Walker-Pearce AFTER A popular flying fox was taken down due to noise complaints, a petition has seen more than 300 signatures to bring it back. The flying fox was installed in the Prestons subdivision in Marshland by Ngai Tahu, only to be removed by the city council after “two or three” complaints from neighbours. A petition was organised by Ian Reid to bring back the flying fox, and was met with huge support. “I rang up the city council and said, well, hold on a minute, who’s complaining about it? And they said they’d received two or three complaints. And I said, well I know at least 100 people who are very keen to keep it,” he said. Mr Reid gathered signatures from local residents, and was overwhelmed by their support. “My family and a few other people went round collecting signatures one weekend, and we got over 300 signatures for the petition, and it’s still going. They’re coming in daily on my email, so well over 300 now,” he said. City councillor Glenn Living-

SILENT FOX: This flying fox at the Prestons subdivision was taken down after noise complaints from neighbours.
stone tested other flying foxes like the one in Prestons for noise level, to see if the BurwoodPegasus Community Board can take the same idea as used in other parts of the city, and implement it in the ward. A flying fox in Lincoln was tested in March for noise level, which registered 46 decibels. That is an acceptable level of noise for day time use, but not during the night when the limit is 41 decibels. Cr Livingstone said after testing other flying foxes, there could be a solution to keep everyone happy.
“It was quieter. There was a bit of noise going through the poles, but the one especially at the Rolleston Community Park I thought was really good. The actual mechanism was encased where it joins the cable and seemed to be very quiet. If we look at these options, we could find a way to keep everyone happy,” Cr Livingstone said. Mr Reid’s petition will be put forward to the community board next month. Ngai Tahu did not respond when asked if the Prestons flying fox had been measured for noise.
Cafe, retail, office space on the way WORK IS well under way on a new office and cafe complex on the corner of Wentworth St and Waimairi Rd in Burnside, with the first latte expected to be poured in August. The single-level building will have a total of 490sq m of floor space, with the cafe taking approximately 140sq m. Wentworth Properties’ owners Joe and Sue Mullins said that they had already signed an anchor tenant with interest in the cafe. “We have had several approaches to take over the lease on the cafe, but are yet to confirm an owner, but are confident that the cafe will be up and run-
ning when the building opens in August. “This area is under-serviced as far as offices and cafes are concerned, being close to Westburn School and Burnside Park as well as Christchurch airport and business parks, such as the Russley Technology Park. Already the local residents are eagerly looking forward to the cafe opening. “Giera Progressive First National, which specialises in residential sales and property management, will be the anchor tenants,” he said. The building is tilt slab plastered with some feature linear adding to the modern design.

Alex O’Keefe
Bringing experimental artist’s work Canterbury University’s Alex O’Keefe, 28, is bringing to life one of the artworks thought up by Len Lye, a Christchurch artist known for experimental films and kinetic sculptures. Hannah Samson-Barry chats to him about motor-cycle racing and skateparks
Tell me a little about your role at Canterbury University. I work in the field of mechanical engineering research at the university. Part of this role is a small amount of teaching and mentoring. I really like working at UC because of the exposure to a wide range of different fields of study in such close proximity, its a 5min walk from fine arts to firing lightning bolts in the electrical engineering department. You made the move from Queenstown? Why the shift? I came to Christchurch because after working for a year in Queenstown after I finished high school I realised that I wasn’t doing anything with my life, so my parents suggested engineering as a pursuit. Canterbury University had the best reputation in New Zealand and it’s reasonably close to home. So I enrolled for first year engineering and moved up here. Can you tell me about life before you became a doctor,
what was it like growing up in Queenstown? Queenstown was a crazy place to grow up. It’s the adventure capital of New Zealand so it was a lot of fun. Small town vibes but with more of a city feel so we got the best of both worlds. It’s safe and fun and great. How did you get into mechanical engineering, so you mentioned your parents? Yes, my parents recommended it as a course of study. I had no idea what it was other than basically building bridges. After the first year of engineering you figure out what the different disciplines are and mechanical engineering was a fit in terms of the fact that I like solving practical problems and working with my hands and doing projects. How did you first become involved with Len Lye’s work? After I finished my degree I was looking for employment as a mechanical engineer and I was obligated to be in the city at the time but none of the
HANDS-ON: Alex O’Keefe has taken up the challenge of bringing artist Len Lye’s ideas to life.
jobs that I could find I found enough interest in or thought I’d be happy there. I looked at the postgraduate curriculum at Canterbury University and one of the projects that was offered was this Len Lye project that I work on and to me that sounded like the biggest challenge I could
imagine. So that’s the first time I heard of Len, I researched him, figured out who he was and his background and decided that this was the project for me. How is it bringing these great ideas and designs to life? Len Lye projects are fascinating to work on because part of it
is that you get to search through all of his notes, drawings and all of the material that he produced on an artwork. Things that other people never get to see. You get to work with small models that he made so then your job as an engineer is to translate all of these intentions as an artist into a piece of art that he would have been happy with. So it’s inspiring as you get to see subtleties of the reasons why he wanted this motion because it had these intricacies and chaos in there that was so exciting. So when you find these things out and come to understand what Len was trying to create it’s really fulfilling when you get to that point when you’ve worked towards an art piece that will be a Len Lye artwork. It’s also kind of stressful because Len gives you these crazy challenges where he says shoot a 30m lightning bolt across the sky and I want things to lift up 100m into the air. So he was limitless in his imagination but as an engineer you are very limited in what you are capable of so you have to come up with clever ways that you can bring to life Len’s ideas, even though they were grand scale and crazy.

to life through engineering Why do you persevere with these projects? That’s a really good question. Something I ask myself and I have no answer too. I guess because we are working towards a goal and I can see the end result, and the end result is that we get to share Len Lye who is one of New Zealand’s and the world’s most renowned artists of the 20th-century. We get to share these visions that he had with everyone and show why this guy was such a spectacular and inspiring artist. So I see the end goal as being a really fulfilling result of these projects. After spending so much time there, what do you think of Canterbury University? I do think it’s quite a spectacular place and I do think the pursuit of engineering, whatever discipline it might be, or the sciences for that matter is the best pursuit for anyone who is mechanically or scientifically minded. By going through the engineering courses at Canterbury you not only give yourself the skills, and technical skills you get from the course, but it gives you a new analytical way of looking at your life and it allows you to take on projects outside of work like motorbike racing

which I would have never done without being at Canterbury and understanding that you can achieve these things and these people that do them, they are not this tier above, your just being confident enough to tackle these problems. Do you get any down time when you’re not working on these projects? Yes I have down time. But in my down time I like to work on other projects. I treat these projects as a job but outside of that I have time to skateboard and ride
motor-cycles and pursue other interests of mine. Tell me more about the motor-cycle racing, how did that begin? Being in the mechanical engineering department engines and motor vehicles are an integral part of that whole course and community. So I was placed in an office with two other motor-cycle racers and as with anyone that seems to be with the engineering department post-grad they were infectiously enthusiastic about the sport and it rubbed off on me
and I got tricked into being part of it. No regrets at all. What’s your motor-cycle of choice? FXR 150 small cubic capacity race bike called a bucket. Because bucket racing is heaps of fun. What is your favourite place to go on your motor-cycle? Up the Summit Rd and around Godley Head in the summer, or at the Mike Pero Motorsport Park (Ruapuna). How about skateboarding, didn’t you help bring about a new skatepark in the city? As part of a marketing campaign an American company Levi’s and Monster Children sent their professional skateboard team to Christchurch to help build a new skatepark for the city which had suffered from the major earthquakes. So they linked
up with me and a bunch of other local skateboarders and we got together with the youth and we built a small DIY skatepark at the stockyards, so give something back to the community. They gave something back, I just helped. It is there to be used for everyone and we encourage anyone to maintain or improve it as they wish. What are the best places to skate? Christchurch is a great place to skate due to wide range of small skateparks in the wider city. Templeton, Rolleston, Belfast, Leeston, Kaiapoi all have relatively recent skate parks which offer a diverse range of things to skate. These small community initiative skateparks are a great thing for kids and big kids alike.

Stay active to keep healthy over winter BISHOPDALE Community Trust development worker, Tania Smith, talks about the need for people to stay active in their communities over the winter period and keep in touch with others. Winter can be a difficult time for folks. Days are shorter, overcast and cold, which leads us to stay indoors more. This can mean
that we have less contact with people and less opportunities to connect. This desire to be with people is a most basic human instinct and regardless of whether we are introverts who appreciate some alone time, or extroverts who
get energised by being around people, we all benefit from some positive social connection. When I first started working in Bishopdale, I wanted to find out what was happening in this community; what was available for people. I was amazed at the range and amount of groups that are run in this area. It seemed to me that whatever your interest or age, there was a group that you could connect
with. Here’s just a few that come to mind: Mainly Music, Boys’ & Girls’ Brigade, St John’s youth, probus clubs, North WEA, card making, 500 card playing, walking groups, conversational english, Scottish dancing, stamp collecting, genealogy and Zumba. For those folk outside of Bishopdale, please don’t despair, most suburbs have almost as good a range of clubs, groups and activities as Bishopdale.
FLAME FILES A reader responds to last week’s article about lowering the speed limit on sections of St Asaph St and Hagley Ave, as well as 27 other roads in the city.
Don’t be scared to call 111 Mark Thomas -Fire Risk Management Officer I WAS woken by a phone call about 11pm early last week from a friend who lives on the opposite side of the city. She was concerned because her daughter, who lives next door, had an unusual burning-like smell in her home that could not be traced. She didn’t know what to do and didn’t want to bother the Fire Service. I told her to ring 111 immediately. They did. Harewood’s fire appliance
arrived and found a down-light in the ceiling was covered by inappropriately placed insulation. The heat from the lamp could not escape. The fibreglass insulation and associated dust was getting hotter and hotter. There probably wouldn’t have been a fire if it had been left. But there might have been. We get lots of calls to false alarms. People smell smoke and phone up when there’s a fire in North Canterbury that’s 50km from their house and when a nor’wester is howling.
Others report smoke swirling on a cold winter’s night which turns out to be mist. We never complain, because all of us would prefer to go to 10 false alarms like this rather than not be called to the one that escalates enough to kill someone in their sleep. If you’ve ever wondered ‘should I call the Fire Service?’ Yes – do it. On the other hand, a colleague in this office called in a car fire the other day when out in traffic. Turned out to be steam. Now he’s fair game.
Dorothy and Neil Munro, Burnside: My husband and I use McLeans Island Rd regularly on the way to golf at Coringa. It is a bit hair-raising passing so many trucks on the way out there. One day I passed 21 trucks. The road
I encourage you to take the time to connect with some of the local groups that interest you. It is quite a brave thing to reach out to a group but I hope that when you do that, you will be rewarded by laughter, fun and company – all good things to keep the winter blues at bay. What are some of your favourite things to do during winter? Share your thoughts with us. Email andrew.king@starmedia.kiwi
seems to be too narrow for these trucks which could be travelling up to 100km/h. Surely the speed limits on all these roads listed in the Nor’west News should be reduced to say 80km/h. It seems silly to travel on McLeans Island Rd, which has a 100km/h limit, and to then meet the new motorway where the limit is 80km/h. Added to that is the possibility of being hit by stones thrown up by the trucks or from the road. It’s not a pleasant experience travelling out there any more.

The art of flax weaving By Andrew King WAIRAKEI SCHOOL has a resident artist teaching pupils how to weave flax. Simon Rutherford is an accomplished weaver of harakeke (flax) and is well-known for his authentic use of the material to create traditional and modern pieces of functional work. Mr Rutherford has had a long association with the school, particularly at year 5 camps and with the year 6 children in the sailing programme. Pupils enjoyed engaging in a hands-on project and created a number of flax products which will be put on display through the school.
Principal Shane Buckner said it was part of the school’s approach to hands-on learning. “It just seemed right for the children, parents and staff to have an opportunity to interact with and learn from an experienced artist,” he said. Mr Rutherford is also giving after-school lessons for parents and other family members who want to learn this special skill. The talent was passed on to him by well-known weaver, Cath Brown. “A number of schools in Canterbury have special taonga [treasures], which have been created by Simon which now stand as part of their school environment,” Mr Buckner said.

TOP MUSICIANS: Rangi Ruru students (back L to R) Iris Lee, Xiling Liu, (front L to R) Xiaoling Liu and Karen Hu.
Jazz combo RANGI RURU Girls’ School’s talented musicians have been recognised with a national title at the New Zealand School of Music Jazz Project in Wellington. The jazz foursome, made up of Xiaoling Liu on guitar, Xiling Liu on bass, Karen Hu on drums and Iris Lee on piano, won the best combo award. In addition, Miss Hu won the award for best drummer. Director of music Janet Kingsbury said it was a fantastic result for the girls and their tutor, Dougal Canard. “They have worked extremely hard towards this and the win is
recognition of this,” she said. Mrs Kingsbury said the whole school was really proud to be one of only two South Island schools represented. “For a small school of just 600 students to be taking on some very large North Island schools, it is incredibly rewarding and a testament to the immense talent and hard work of this group of musicians,” she said. The group will now turn their attention to preparing for the both JazzQuest in Christchurch, and the Southern Jam Youth Jazz Festival, in Blenheim. Both events take place in August.
FINDING A natural alignment between company and product is how five Rangi Ruru students wowed the judges to win a Canterbury Regional Dragons’ Den award. The girls’ company, named Surfswell, produced surf boards made of gingerbread. They hypothetically proposed to sell these through BP stations nation-wide, in support of New Zealand Surf Lifesaving. Surfswell creators Christine van Til, Sujin Jung, Grace Soong, Nicole Jackson and Lily Lee pitched their business idea to a group of judges in the “Dragons’ Den”. The competition was run along the same lines as the popular television programme of the same name. More than 60 teams competed in the Canterbury region preliminaries, and 36 of those were then selected to go through to the final rounds. Rangi Ruru was the only school to have five teams in the finals. Fellow year 12 Rangi Ruru competitors Alex Summerfield, Danielle Bussell, Annabelle Wilson and Jayne Barclay won the business operations award. They designed and produced Rangi Ruru crop tops and underwear. The final national awards will be presented at the end of October.

Parents of Year 6 students are encouraged to take a good look at their child’s full primary school when choosing schooling for 2017. Why change schools when you don’t need to? Full Primary schools are tried and tested and have developed in innovative and cost effective ways since their inception in 1877. They are as important to the provision of education in 2017 as they were in 1877.
What makes them successful? • They have evolved over time and have responded to the different demographic changes since 1877. • They are located in neighbourhoods; they cater for families and respond to community needs. • They are staffed by highly trained teachers who know curriculum levels from Level 1 – 5 who have had the same teacher training as teachers in other Year 7 and 8 school types. • Teachers in the student’s current full primary school know about individual students learning progress and learning style from Year 1 – 8.
What does the research tell us about the learning needs of Year 7 and 8 students? • Curriculum that is relevant, challenging, integrative, and exploratory • Multiple learning and teaching approaches • Assessment and evaluation programmes that promote quality learning • Organisational structures that support meaningful relationships and learning
• Developing the whole child, flexibility, nurture, innovation and child centred learning sum up full primary schools.
• Educators who value working with the age group
• Year 7 and 8 students are the leaders and role models along with the adults in a full primary school with opportunities to nurture Year 1 – 6 students.
• School-wide efforts and policies that foster health, wellness, and safety
• School organisation in a full primary school fits the needs of students not the timetable. • All Year 7 and 8 students are included in leadership opportunities, sporting opportunities, school community job opportunities, buddy responsibilities and role model expectations. They are seen by others in the school as the leaders and younger students look up to them. • These opportunities and strategies to build leadership, key competencies and resilience are available to all Year 7 and 8 students in a full primary.
Lincoln Primary
• Courageous, collaborative leadership
• Multifaceted guidance and support services • School-initiated family and community partnerships
Looking at the above list it becomes clear that it isn’t school type or school buildings that make the difference for Year 7 and 8 students. It is instead the innovative approach to learning and the attitude of professionals toward this group of students. This can happen in any school setting as long as the leadership, teachers and non-teaching staff are committed to the social and emotional development of this group of learners. Full Primary Schools are providers of Year 7 and 8 education in every way that other types of schools are.

And also The research also provides insight into what works for Year 7 and 8 students: Ministry of Education by Dinham and Rowe of the Australian Council for Educational Research. 2007 • From the broader ‘teaching and learning literature’, there is strong evidence that the quality of teaching which students receive at all levels and stages of schooling is of major importance in influencing achievement outcomes for students. • While productive and positive student-teacher relationships are identified as an important characteristic of highly performing schools catering for middle years’ students, it needs to be acknowledged that good teachers and school leaders at all levels of schooling is what works. • It is therefore debateable whether at least some aspects of the philosophy and enactment of middle schooling is any different from ‘good’ teaching and effective schooling generally in all school types.
The literature is clear in advocating ‘middle schooling approaches focusing on quality teaching and enhanced learning’ rather than on school type. Therefore it is what happens in the classroom to support learning and what happens across the school to cater for the specific developmental, cognitive, physical, emotional and social needs of Year 7 and 8 that makes the difference. Not school type. The research on middle schooling and its implications to provide quality education to Year 7 and 8 students is as applicable to full primary school as it is for other schooling types.

PAPANUI
A selection of retail outlets With a large variety of small independent retail shops and service businesses, shoppers will be impressed at the convenience of the selection of retail outlets, all in close proximity to each other.
GROWING UP: A ballet recital at St Giles Hall in 1959, with Janet Tillman on the right.
No time for boredom put aside for hosting and visiting relations, where the highlight was the enjoyment of sumptuous afternoon teas. On Friday evenings, Ms Tillman often accompanied her mother to the second-hand store in the Papanui buildings to bid for a box of miscellaneous items that was potentially a ‘treasure trove’. There were plenty of other options available in Papanui beyond family activities. From the age of five, Ms Tillman was enrolled in ballet lessons at St Giles’ church hall for nine years and spent a similar amount of time learning Scottish dancing from Jeanie Paton at the latter’s studio above the garage at her St James Ave home. When she was seven, Ms Tillman joined the Brownies which operated from the scout den at St Paul’s Church. She was to have a long association with the organisation as she moved
through the ranks of Girl Guides, Ranger Guides and, eventually, at the age of 19, she was appointed Brown Owl, effectively the supervisor of the brownie pack. Ms Tillman attended Sunday school at St Paul’s and this organisation was then so popular that a satellite branch was formed to meet at Bishopdale School. Later, she was a keen member of the youth group at St Paul’s and became part of a dance and drama group that played an integral part in church services. The youth group also ran a coffee bar called The Arc, which operated from the back of the RSA hall on the corner of Langdons Rd and Main North Rd. On the menu were cheese toasties, made on the spot in a frying pan. The recipe was ‘borrowed’ from coffee bars in town. As Ms Tillman says, she never had time to get bored.
Young talent recognised By Andrew King HIGH achievers in the north-west were honoured on Friday with one taking a top award at the Canterbury Youth Awards. The inaugural awards saw Ashley Stuart, of Ilam, Viane Makalio, of Shirley, Isabella Garbett, of Bryndwr and Josiah Tualamali’i, of Ilam, receive an award or place. Mr Tualamali’i, 22, was awarded the Supreme Youth Award for Christchurch for his tireless work in the Pacific community and time with the United States Embassy Youth Council.
Mr Makalio won the Wayne Francis Charitable Trust Leadership Award for his work with Pacific Island students at Canterbury University. He also took out the Pacific Youth Leadership and Transformation Award. Miss Garbett won the Advocate for Inclusion and Diversity Award for her work as a volunteer for bounce.org.nz and strong advocacy for women’s rights. The awards were held at the University of Canterbury Students’ Association events centre on Friday night.

By Murray Williams Papanui Heritage Group IN AN era when much of adolescent life appears to revolve around the use of social media, it is interesting to learn of the experiences of Janet Tillman (née Stephens) when she was growing up as a child and teenager in Papanui in the 1960s and early-1970s. Although television came to New Zealand in 1960, Ms Tillman’s household did not have a set in the house. However, she recalls occasionally visiting the neighbours to watch Dr Who. Family rituals played a large part in her life. For example, the Saturday evening walk from the family home at 102 Sawyers Arms Rd, when she accompanied her father to the dairy on the corner of Main North Rd to buy a copy of the Star Sports and a large block of Cadbury chocolate. Sunday afternoons were
From the strong presence of arts, crafts and sewing, fabric stores and florists to hairdressers, ladies and men’s fashion boutiques, clothing stores, lawyers, fitness centres, lifestyle furniture and antique stores, medical and health centres, wine and liquor outlets, book shops, cycle shops, banks as well as a NZ Post Shop and a service station. There is also a huge hospitality precinct incorporating a number of popular family restaurants, bars, cafes and takeaway outlets. The nine retirement villages and seven churches within Papanui further add to the ‘melting pot’ of businesses, organisations and services available to locals.

Focus on nutrients to Super Liquor moves to
support medical conditions new premises on main road
As well as providing a full pharmacy service, Shields Pharmacy in Papanui is strongly focused on supporting people’s medical conditions with a range of nutrients, says pharmacist and business owner, Steve. For exAmPle, fish oil and magnesium can be helpful for people with heart conditions. And, as Steve points out, some prescribed medications can have adverse side-effects, which can be mitigated with supplements. For example, people that are taking omeprazole for certain stomach conditions can experience cramps, irritability and sleeplessness, which is caused by the depletion of magnesium. In this case, a magnesium supplement can be very beneficial, he says. Shields Pharmacy offers four supplement packs, which are designed for heart health, and to ease asthma, eczema and arthritis conditions, with the two pharmacists, Steve and Sharon, happy to advise customers on how to use them safely and effectively. Shields Pharmacy has been servicing the local community for more than 40 years.
It is located on the corner of main North road and Sawyers Arms road, by Couplands Bakery, and conveniently close to three medical centres – the main North rd medical Centre across the road, the Papanui medical Centre around the corner in Papanui road, and the redwood Clinic, further down the main North road. opening hours are 9am-8pm monday to Friday and 10am-1pm on Saturday.
SuPer lIquor Papanui has relocated from 22 harewood road to 17c main North rd – just 50 metres away. The lease came to an end at the harewood road premises and as a result Super liquor is now established in a brand-new store on main North rd, which owners tim and Carolyn Siegert describe as a great location. “We are happy to be in Papanui’s main street amongst other great retailers. Plus there’s good parking at the front and car parks at the back.” tim and Carolyn bought Super liquor Papanui, one of 140 stores across New Zealand, in 2004. “Super liquor is New Zealand’s most recognised liquor retail franchises,” says tim, “and the franchise ensures best buying power every day. “our new store is sign written in Super liquor’s new branding and livery.” The store has five staff members, who have all been there for more than three years and know their customers by name. Super liquor Papanui has built a reputation for stocking an extensive range of Canterbury wines. “We love selling wine and can get in anything that customers request – usually

Tradespeople Succeed every year ara institute of Canterbury offers Pasifika Trades Training scholarships for anyone of Pasifika descent to train in trades fees-free. The iniTiaTive was created to help Pasifika people contribute to the rebuild of Christchurch and is run in collaboration with leaders from the Pasifika community and government agencies with Pasifika church ministers playing a key role in nominating people and offering pastoral support. Because everyone is different, there are a number of options and pathways available to help Pasifika men and women start a career in the trades. To make sure every student succeeds, support is available from the Centre of Māori and Pasifika achievement, with pastoral care advisors helping not only with study matters but with anything that impacts on students completing their studies. Trades training has evolved and that’s good news for learners. Classroombased theory sessions are being phased out in favour of shorter, more frequent theory sessions in new workshops so that students can practice what they have learned straight away.

PAST GREAT, FUTURE GREATS: Quinn Clinton, (second from right) with NBA greats David Robinson, Bruce Bowen after taking home the All-Star game MVP award.
Boys’ High Quinn Clinton MVP and he meets the game’s greats By Gordon Findlater CHRISTCHURCH Boys’ High basketballer Quinn Clinton, has been named the most valuable player at the weekend’s Basketball Without Borders All-Star Game. Clinton was presented with the award in the presence of some NBA greats. Two-time NBA Championship winner and 1995 NBA MVP David Robinson headlined the four-day-camp. Robinson is ranked amongst some of the greatest big men to ever play the game. Robinson was joined at the camp by a fellow member of the 2003 championship winning San Antonio Spurs, Bruce Bowen. The three-time championship winner is rated as one of the greatest defenders of his time. He made five NBA All-Defensive first teams from 2004-2008.
Clinton was one of five Kiwis to attend the camp in Melbourne. Less than 50 of the top 16 to 18-year-olds are invited to attend the Asia region camp. It was a bright week for New Zealand players, fellow Kiwi Sam Waardenburg was awarded the four-day-camp MVP award. There’s no rest for Clinton who now returns home to represent CBHS in the Thompson Trophy secondary school competition. Clinton has been a stand-out performer for his school and last week recorded 12 points, 12 assists, nine rebounds, six steals and a block, in a top of the table clash with Cashmere High School. Clinton and his CBHS side will host Papanui High School tonight. Tip-off is at 6pm.
Digital Technologies Design, and Visual Communication and Workshop Materials are the learning teams that are involved in the initial stages of a project to build two weather stations in separate locations. The first challenge for term one was to use the project plan for the school’s STEM project as a basis to design a Year 11 Digital Technologies course that met the individual needs of the students, curriculum delivery requirements and NCEA assessment requirements. It’s a popular course, with enthusiasm for it fuelled by the work students do in this learning area in the junior school. The students opting for this course have a range of skills and abilities. Individual courses were designed to establish the base skills needed to begin the construction, and programming of the electronic system that will measure, record and display weather data. The main emphasis for the first term was to establish a suitable level of coding skills in all the students. The learning progress has enabled all students to be in a position to participate directly in the coding of the electronic recording system for the Weather Stations. Some students are operating at the higher skill level and they will write the code to drive the dynamic data driven website that will display the data. These students will be assessed against Level 2 NCEA standards. Electronic systems have been the focus of learning and assessment this term. Arduino boards have been used to construct small to medium sized projects. These projects enable students to understand the electronic componentry needed in the construction of the weather stations.

New Christchurch schools
to offer students more AVoNSIDE GIrLS’ and Shirley Boys’ will be the first single sex secondary schools in New Zealand’s history to share a campus – an arrangement their principals say will enable the schools to offer their students new opportunities. The schools are to be built on part of QEII Park, next to the Christchurch City Council’s Eastern recreation and Sport Centre. Avonside Girls’ High School Principal Sue Hume says the campus will be brand new and state of the art. “Each school will have its own teaching spaces and students will spend most of their day in a single sex environment. That’s important to us. research shows that single sex education benefits both girls and boys…boys do better academically and girls participate more. That’s because they have space to learn and focus away from the opposite gender,” says Sue Hume. John Laurenson says the new campus is a step forward. “Because we are going to work together, we’ll be able to offer more. For example, we’ll be sharing some facilities, including a performing arts auditorium, theatre and cultural space, which enables us to build bigger and better assets,” says John Laurenson. Another benefit is that the students
will be able to interact with and learn alongside peers from their partner school. “Students from both schools will share buses to and from the campus, they’ll all be able to use the café, our new library and learning centre and our other shared facilities. This means that not only will they have all the benefits of a single sex education, they’ll have social opportunities not available at other single sex schools,” says Sue Hume. The Ministry of Education is currently working on how the new schools will be zoned but the schools are focusing on catering to residents who live east of Colombo Street. “Because we will be servicing a wide area, we will be establishing a network of buses to service the campus,” says John Laurenson. Best of all, Sue Hume says the new campus will open in 2019 so is not too far away. “In fact many of our current students will be making the journey to the new campus with us and those who join our schools in the next two years will spend their senior years there. It’s been a long and sometimes hard road to get to the new campus, but we are confident we’re on track to create something even better than what we had before the earthquakes.”

Dual mother and teacher role provides unique perspective HAEATA CoMMuNITY Campus will provide more than cutting-edge facilities when it opens in 2017, says new Director of Learning rebecca Wilson – it is a “once in a lifetime opportunity” for students, their whānau and the East. rebecca’s three children will be among the first students attending the new school next year. “As a mother and a teacher I know that Haeata is the best choice for my kids, as they will be valued for who they are as individuals and given the chance to explore their different passions through Haeata’s personalised approach to learning,” says rebecca. “I also love the fact that they will be at one school for the rest of their schooling, as Haeata caters for students from years 1-13. They can stay together for their education and not be separated.” Haeata is a “new beginning” for the East, says rebecca. “The new campus will change things for the better, providing a new learning community with endless opportunities – with students right in the heart of it.” rebecca joins Haeata’s Senior Leadership Team after 13 years at Bromley School, the last two as Deputy Principal.
As Director of Learning at Haeata, rebecca is part of a team designing systems and structures that will ensure a successful start in 2017. Some of the key tasks include engaging with families and students from the contributing schools, strengthening relationships with Māori and Pasifika communities, planning for diverse learners and organising safe travel routes to and from school. “I have been in my new role since the beginning of the year and not a day goes by that I do not feel excited about Haeata opening its doors,” says rebecca, who also lives in the local community. “Although it is a safe, purpose-built school with state-of-the-art facilities, for me it is more about the innovative learning and community relationships that will form as a result. “Student wellbeing is really important. Like many people living in the East postquake, it has been challenging for us as a family at times. It is reassuring to know that my kids will be supported and cared for.” A future-focused learning environment that utilises innovation and technology is a key aspect of the Haeata model, says rebecca.

The campus will be at the heart of our unique community, bringing together students and their families. “It is about really getting to know the kids and their whānau, creating a true partnership between home and school. “I have 100 percent faith that Haeata is going to be phenomenal. I see the new school bringing lots of happiness to the community, which is what it deserves.”

Boutique salon specialises in organic hair treatment Set in the peaceful surroundings of a private garden, The Lounge Organic Hairdressing salon on Derby Street, Merivale offers clients a retreat where they can enjoy the benefits of top-quality hairdressing in a boutique environment. Since March, The Lounge has been under the management of experienced stylist Su Jorgensen. After spending over 15 years abroad, the last six years of which were working and teaching in Southern Asia, Su has brought her skills and passion to this unique Christchurch salon. Another noteworthy aspect of the salon is that all products used are organic, Paraben, Resorcine, PPD and ammonia free. All products, including the retail products, are animal cruelty free and environmentally friendly. The technology means that 100 per cent grey coverage is easily obtained, Su says. “The blondes are crisp, and the rich colours are incredibly long lasting due to the colour molecules being smaller, and the hair being less damaged through the processing.” Aware of the growing interest in natural and organic products, Su says salon owner tracette saw the opportunity to fill a niche in the market. “Constant exposure to chemicals is not

beneficial for hairdressers or their clients,” she says, “and people are now more conscious about having natural products used that are not harmful for their hair or scalp. “i also have a strong personal interest in these types of products, and healthy living. Having organic products at The Lounge was perfect for me.” Su specialises in cutting and colouring, and also when requested provides her
clients with an indian therapeutic head massage using holistic oils – a totally relaxing treatment that nourishes the hair and scalp. She imports the highly regarded Organic Argan oil from Morocco, a hair and body oil which she markets under her own label, Sukha. These products will soon be available to purchase at The Lounge and will go hand in hand with the other retail products available. Clients can also be confident that Su is up to date with the latest trends in both colouring and styling. For winter, she says soft champagne and salmon pink
shades of blonde are taking the place of the grey and silver tones, while soft and rich coppers and deep chocolate browns always look good with winter fashions. Style-wise, fringes are in, mostly short to medium, the long bob, or lob, remains current, while a new trend for short hair is the deconstructed short-long look, which features short hair in the front and long tendrils at the back. in addition to hair styling The Lounge also offers aromatherapy, massage and reiki.
