St Andrew’s College students on path to adulthood Year 10 St Andrew’s College students got out of bed at 5.30am last Thursday to head off to Kairaki Beach for the school’s annual Te Waka ceremony. Students were led at sunrise by their teachers and fellow student Reuben O’Neill on the bagpipes as they began their journey towards adulthood. The traditional Maori calling ceremony ended with each student symbolically throwing childhood behaviour in the form of a stone or shell into the Waimakariri River where it meets the ocean.

Library building to be torn down By Julia Evans THE FATE of the old Bishopdale Library has been sealed and the building will be demolished. Although the Farrington Ave library was not completely written off by the February 22, 2011, earthquake, the damage was significant enough that it was deemed earthquake-prone and not fit for use. It has since been abandoned and boarded up, but does not pose a risk of collapse to nearby buildings or thoroughfares. Last week, city council staff

told the Fendalton-WaimairiHarewood Community Board, which approved the demolition, that the building is a liability in terms of security and vandalism. Property consultant manager Angus Smith said it had been broken into and vandalised the night before last Monday’s board meeting. Repairing the building was deemed financially unviable because of a $2 million price tag and further costs to update the facility for a different purpose. A new discussion to plan what

community board. City councillor Aaron Keown said he wanted to have

a community conversation to gather ideas about what to do with the old building so staff don’t waste their time planning something the community won’t get behind. Construction on a new Bishopdale Library site at the adjacent Bishopdale Village Mall is already well under way and is set to finish in the middle of the year. The decision to demolish the old library will be approved by the city council at its meeting on Thursday.

Tuesday March 7 2017 FROM THE EDITOR’S DESK

IT’S KIND of been a bit of a slam dunk I’m afraid in regards to city councillor Aaron Keown’s unsuccessful bid to get traffic lights at the Gardiners, Breens and Harewood Rds intersection. On page 4 today, Mayor Lianne Dalziel outlines why Keown did not get the necessary votes to get the improvements through the council. Keown also has his say on the matter in our weekly Soapbox column (page 4). The intersection rates 94th out of 100 medium-risk intersections in the city. So that either means there are a heck of a lot of risky intersections in the city, or there are many other more worthy intersections that need upgrading. Also, a cycle scheme at Jellie Park has been a success the organisers of it say and they are looking to roll it out at other recreation centres (page 3). – Barry Clarke

News Cycle scheme a success By Julia Evans A BICYCLE scheme to get people to leave their cars at home has been labelled a success and might soon roll out across the city. City council head of recreation and sport John Filsell said initial data showed the scheme at Jellie Park Recreation and Sports Centre was fully completed 17 times and partially completed 13 times. There were at least 117 individual visits from people on bicycles in February. The Jellie Park Bike Initiative Project committee was formed by the Fendalton-WaimairiHarewood Community Board in May to gather public feedback on ways to combat the parking problem at Jellie Park. “The hope is to free up car parks, create healthy habits and make sure there is community involvement,” project committee chairwoman Bridget Williams said. Extensions to Jellie Park’s car park were voted down by the city council after an overwhelmingly negative response to public consultation. Board chairman David

CYCLING: Bridget Williams, chairwoman of the Jellie Park Bike Initiative Project committee, is expecting a report back on just how successful the pilot scheme has been. PHOTO: ANDREW KING

Cartwright said the number of people cycling meant there were at least 100 empty car parks that otherwise may have been full. He said that would only increase as the public became more aware of the initiative. Mr Cartwright said they might look into running it at other centres around the city,

including the Pioneer and Graham Condon sports and recreation centres. The board and project committee are expecting a report back this week on the scheme’s overall success and whether it will be continued permanently. Mr Cartwright and Bridget Williams, chairwoman of the

project committee, agreed the pilot run went really well but they’re waiting for confirmation from the report. Spokes Canterbury cycling group said the only way to discourage people driving would be to charge for parking. However, Ms Williams said that charging people would only increase frustrations.

In Brief MORE WORK ON RUTLAND ST Businesses on Rutland St struggling to get customers in due to road works outside their shops will face more disruption as further construction of the Papanui Cycleway began last week. The entrance to Malvern St and Westminster St from Rutland St will be closed at alternate times for three weeks. Rutland St, between Weston Rd and Innes Rd, will be one-way for four weeks. North-bound traffic will need to detour along Innes Rd on to Bretts Rd and then back on to Weston Rd. THEFT FROM CARS The Belfast Community Network is warning residents to lock their cars and make sure windows are closed when parking at Sheldon Park. The community group has received several reports of cars being broken into in the car park. FUNDING GRANT Flynn McDonald, 16, has received a $300 grant to participate in the New Zealand national age group swimming championships in Wellington later this month. The grant was awarded by the FendaltonWaimairi-Harewood Community Board.

News Frustration over intersection snub By Julia Evans MAYOR LIANNE Dalziel has responded to city councillor Aaron Keown’s outrage that his bid to get traffic signals installed at the Gardiners, Breens and Harewood Rds intersection fell over. At last Tuesday’s city council meeting, 10 councillors voted against the money being budgeted for the traffic signals in the draft annual plan. Seven were for it. Cr Keown hit out at those who voted against it on Facebook, posting a photo of the official voting form. He has since added a direct response from Ms Dalziel. She wrote that she was aware that this issue was what Cr Keown had run his election campaign on, but she had told him she would have to vote against it because he did not use the right process. “This particular intersection sits in the list of 100 mediumrisk intersections at number 94. That means the current criteria consider another 93 intersections more risky,” Ms Dalziel wrote. Cr Keown told Nor’West News other city councillors who voted against said it was

After the Gardiners, Breens and Harewood Rds intersection wasn’t included in the city council’s draft annual plan, city councillor Aaron Keown has his say on the flaws in the process

LOST: The intersection city councillor Aaron Keown has been lobbying for has not been included in the draft annual plan.

because the process was wrong. To qualify for an upgrade, the intersection had to be in the top 10 most dangerous in the city, in terms of accidents, fatalities and injuries, but he hit back and said that was the wrong approach. “We’re just waiting for someone to die there. That’s backwards,” he said. Cr Keown lobbied hard in his re-election campaign for the intersection’s upgrade to improve pedestrian safety and had offered $100 to anyone who could come up with a more dangerous intersection. “It wasn’t even my idea, it’s

the people. People want lights,” he said. All three city councillors who are also on the FendaltonWaimairi-Harewood Community Board voted to have the intersection included in the budget. Another board member Linda Chen wrote on Facebook that if she could have voted, she would have supported it. Cr Keown said he would not give up, and because the intersection has gone into the draft annual plan as a note, the next step will be when it is released for public comment.

IT WAS a very disappointing end to what had been an engaging annual plan process at council, not having the intersection of Gardiners, Breens and Harewood Rds included. For me, this is where the entire engagement between the public and council falls down. Elected members will hide behind the term ‘process’. I was elected by the people of Harewood, I campaigned on getting this intersection fixed as that’s what the constituents of the ward wanted and therefore voted for. Here is where it all falls down: A democratically elected member with a mandate from the people can just simply not propose an intersection upgrade even if that’s what the people want. You see, the intersection has to rate as ‘dangerous’ and this is measured by crash stats. Most crashes happen out of human era and not the built environment, so crash stats are really pointless when it comes to influ-

encing safety improvements. Surely the best asset and tool we have is the residents, motorists and pedestrians of the area. People will not whinge and complain about every intersection in their area, but when all point to one and say “something better be done about that before someone loses their life”, this needs to be acknowledged. This intersection is currently rated the 94th most dangerous intersection in Christchurch, based on crash stats. What this figure does not tell you is that most of the 93 ahead in crash stats already have lights and the accidents were the fault of human era so it does not compare apples with apples. All is not lost just yet and the people of Christchurch’s north west soon get the chance to submit on the Annual Plan and have the opportunity to tell the council they don’t want much this year, just one intersection improved for the benefit of us all.

NINa COOk - OpeNINg Nina Cook was born in Whakatane in 1967. She was educated in Wanganui and then at Christchurch Polytechnic School of Art and Design where she received a Bachelor of Design. In 2007 Nina established the studio from which she currently works. Nina’s latest exhibition named ‘Opening’ takes place at Little River Gallery from March 11th until April 5th. Ian Clothier writes about Nina Cook’s new works from the exhibition ‘Opening’. “…Sumptuously indulgent, some of the paintings have sensual cavities accompanied by extravagant displays of form and colour that come close to gorging the eyes. Words such as colour, spectrum and visual feast apply equally to the paintings as they do to the tail of peacocks. Such as the collection of thoughts about feathers, colour and visual luxury that assemble on reflection of Nina Cook’s Opening works.” Nina writes about her own work. “The narrative/impetus for this series of works is deeply personal. Broadly, it is about a cycle of profound hurt to intense release. Opening: to force an opening (to breach) through to Opening: to release and truly open up. The process is integral and is one of concentrated, open-minded patience, requiring me to stay alert to paint (viscosity, brush loading, etc) and compositional characteristics in much the same way as fully abstract works demand. These cannot be rushed, nor the movements/marks allowed to become repetitively mechanical. To do so would be to undermine the intention of the work. The works initially appear highly decorative and orderly – feathers mean birds. But on closer inspection, these are not any birds you’d recognise. Their physiology is different (wrong? altered?). The colours and intensity are emotive, the mark-making intense. These irregularities draw you in, encourage observation and contemplation. But ultimately you are released to once again to simply enjoy the decorative qualities of these jewels. That they are designed to be hung at any angle, allows the image to be changed/refreshed at will. This allows the viewer input into the relationship each work has with its surroundings. The round paintings are very effective in groupings, allowing differences between the works to intensify each other.”

Young opera star on Mikado tour

cast members had been doing since the start of January. It was a bit of a rush, but fortunately, the music was quite catchy, something you can learn quickly, he said. Simmons has worked with the opera company before but this was his first real opportunity to tour professionally.

BOMB SCARE Police were called to an address in Edgeware just after 11am last Monday when an old mortar shell was found in the garage. A person had gone to the property to clean it and discovered the mortar shell. The explosive ordnance disposal team attended the scene but there was no further concern. SCHOOL’S FIRE FUNDRAISER Elmwood Normal School pupils from years 5 and 6 raised nearly $900 last week through a successful bake sale. The money will be used to buy shrubs for families who lost their gardens in the recent Port Hills fire. The school said any remaining money will then be donated to the Rural Fire Association. Pupils baked and sold biscuits, muffins, cakes and cupcakes. COMMUNITY BOARD HELPS LAWN BOWLER Tayla Bruce has received funding to compete in the lawn bowls National Club Championships finals. The $200 grant was awarded by the Fendalton-WaimairiHarewood Community Board. The competition runs in Dunedin from March 9 to 14.

In Brief

“I can’t really put into words how invaluable it’s been.” Mikado runs at the Isaac Theatre Royal for five shows from March 7 to 11 after its Auckland and Wellington dates. Simmons said touring and being in different cities has been great, but one thing he is looking forward to about being home is being able to drive. Later in July, he will be performing in the Christchurch ensemble for Carmen and after that plans to focus on his solo work and university studies.

SPOTLIGHT: Third from the left at the back, Angus Simmons (right), 21, said he was lucky Mikado was such a catchy show so learning the music wasn’t too hard.

By Julia Evans AT THE drop of a hat Bryndwr‘s Angus Simmons has been thrust into his first national tour with New Zealand Opera. Initially for this season’s performance of Mikado, Simmons had not been cast. In fact, he had only been home from visiting his brother in Germany for two days and had also celebrated his 21st birthday in that 48 hours. It was safe to say he was still feeling the effects of jet lag and a hangover when he found out he’d been cast. Simmons got a phone call to say he had a part in the ensemble for Mikado but he had to be in Auckland in three days. He had to be available for four weeks after that to tour the production and somehow, he said, the timing worked out perfectly. He only had two major commitments to work around, the first being his studies at Canterbury University as he would be missing out on two weeks of class. “They were quite happy just to have someone with work,” Simmons said. Simmons is also the musical director of the Christchurch

Major open heart surgery at the age of four taught Jeremy Scott that life was precious and something to cherish. In 2011 Jeremy began a two-and-a-half year, 51,916km unsupported bike ride from London to New Zealand. As he pedalled his way around the planet he accumulated more than enough kilometres to circumnavigate the earth. Jeremy has since written the successful book The Long Road from a Broken Heart and now dedicates his life to inspiring others. He has recently been awarded the Australian Heart Foundation Heart Hero award for his work raising funds and awareness for heart disease. Go along to Fendalton Library on Thursday to hear a motivational presentation by author, adventurer, speaker and photographer, Jeremy Scott. Entry is free.

Methyl B-12 B12 is essential for energy production, cell health, regulation of mood and sleep cycles, nerve health and repair and prevention of homocysteine.

Emerging research has shown as many as 50 per cent of older adults and as many as 25 per cent of younger adults are deficient in vitamin B12. B12 is essential for energy production, cell health, regulation of mood and sleep cycles, nerve health and repair and prevention of homocysteine - a serious cardiovascular risk factor that is known to cause damage and plaque in the blood vessels. It can also increase the chances of a stroke. Harvard researchers found a 34 per

cent decrease risk of vision loss in a study of participants aged 40+ who supplemented with B12. Another study linked a higher risk of hearing loss in subjects in their 60s who were low in B12. The reason so many people lack B12 seems to be due to our body’s inability to absorb it as we age, as the digestive system becomes less efficient. Anti-reflux medication and other drugs further reduce B12 absorption. The good news is B12 in the form of

Methylcobalamin sublingual tablets that are dissolved in the mouth and thru bypassing the digestive tract have been shown to effectively raise B12 levels in the body.

Time Honoured Remedy According to a country Doctor “D.C. Jarvis” from Vermont in the USA cider vinegar and honey (CV & H) can be an important part of a long healthy life. Dr. Jarvis noted Vermonters who regularly consumed cider vinegar and honey had excellent health with many putting in a vigorous day’s work on the farm even when well into their eighties. Dr. Jarvis found the effects of cider vinegar and honey on arthritis can be remarkable with many patients reporting almost total relief after taking a course of the cider vinegar and honey. Dr. Jarvis surmised that the acid and potassium in cider vinegar counteracted calcium deposits and helped the body control calcium use. As well as a general tonic Dr. Jarvis found regular administration of cider vinegar and honey at the onset of complaints such as the common cold, sinusitis, asthmatic attacks, hay fever, and childhood diseases such as chicken pox and measles, was accompanied by an improvement in the condition with symptoms either disappearing, or the conditions were extremely mild and soon over. Apple cider vinegar contains all the goodness of the apple in a form that is readily accepted by the body. Scientists have found over 90 different substances in ACV, among them 20 important trace elements, minerals, essential enzymes, a number of different acids including malic acid, amino acids and roughage in the form of potash and pectin. A scientific

study at the Shizuka University in Japan has proven ACV to have potent antioxidant benefits (It can destroy free radicals, which are a major factor in ageing.) and also the ACV can break down cholesterol formations in the blood vessels. ACV and H is a powerful tonic that also promotes digestion, assimilation of nutrients and elimination of waste, and helps neutralize any toxic substances that enter the body. It is important to note not all cider vinegar is made in the traditional way and results are likely to prove disappointing with these other vinegars.

Fitness centre focuses on members’ health & wellbeing As we all know from what the health professionals tell us, one of the keys to staying healthy throughout our life is being active and exercising regularly. For long-time manager of the Papanui Club’s fitness centre, Eddie Kerrigan, that has always been the focus. “For us, it’s not about mass numbers – it’s about caring about the health and well-being of individual members who exercise here. That’s the key for overall health,” he says. The fully equipped Ignite Fitness is an important feature of the expansive new Papanui Club, which was rebuilt following the earthquakes, and has much more space and is a better design than the former fitness facilities had, Eddie says. However, for him and other staff members, it is the personal communication and interaction with members that is most important. “People have to have the self-motivation to come,” Eddie says, “once here we can guide them towards their goals and encourage them to incorporate exercise into their lifestyle and get into good nutritional habits.” One member who doesn’t need any encouragement to visit Ignite Fitness is the fitness centre’s oldest member, 87-year-old Mavis Mannall. Mavis has been a member of the Papanui club for 26 years, and goes to the fitness centre three times a week,

where she works out on a number of the machines. Her favourite is the rowing machine, but she also uses the treadmill, the bikes and the leg extension and does floor exercises including squats. “I love coming here, everyone is so friendly. It’s like a home away from home,” says Mavis. “It’s got the X factor.” Her fitness regime also includes walking 4kms twice a week and swimming, while in her ‘spare’ time, she is involved with the Red Cross and the Blood Bank. Her grandchildren are also an important part of her life. Mavis is only one of the 13000-plus members who are enjoying the spacious, modern facilities at the newly rebuilt Papanui Club in Sawyers Arms Road, which reopened in early 2016. New Zealand’s largest club, it offers leisure and entertainment facilities for a wide range of age groups across the whole community. Ignite Fitness is open 5.30am9.30pm Monday to Friday and 5.30am6.30pm weekends and public holidays. New members are more than welcome. To find out more information about Ignite Fitness phone 359-9586, ext. 706 or email gym@papanuiclub.co.nz

HOME & HEATING

Warming winter with

EnviroMaster ArE yoU struggling with the heat of Summer or wanting to get organised for Winter? With the ever changing weather patterns, heat pumps have the flexibility of being able to heat and cool which is an advantage no other appliance can offer. This represents great value for your investment as you can use it all year round. The team at Enviro Master Ltd can help keep you cool this Summer either at home or work. Enviro Master supplies, installs and services all the leading brands including Panasonic, Fujitsu, Mitsubishi and Daikin. This means our team can show you which system and brand will best suit your needs. We currently have savings up to $600 off the recommended retail price on selected models. Would you like to maximise the number of days you can use your swimming pool? Heating your pool can do this and one of the most cost effective ways is with a water heat pump. Enviro Master Ltd can supply, install and service you swimming pool heat pump providing you with a comfortable, extended swimming season. Servicing your heat pump is extremely important to ensure that it is working

as effectively and efficiently as possible resulting in a healthy, hygienic heat pump, lower power bills and greater comfort. But beware, not all cleaning companies are equal. We are constantly hearing of people being charged huge amounts for servicing and all they are getting is a heat pump clean. We at Enviro Master, are qualified engineers and therefore are able to fully test and diagnose any problems you may or may not be aware of with your heat pump. Also, as we are associated with all major brands, we are able to repair these under warranty if they are still within the warranty period. It is important to remember, when selecting an installer, the manufacturer’s warranty does not cover the installation and consumers could be responsible for any repair or damage caused to the system due to poor installation. Enviro Master’s five-star installation guarantee ensures correct installation, and a demonstration so customers have an understanding on how it will best meet their needs. For a free in home consultation, call Enviro Master on 366 0525 or visit our showroom at 41A Shakespeare Rd, Waltham, Christchurch.

The facts about home ventilation Balanced Pressure vs Positive Pressure Under the New Zealand Building Code, all buildings, including residential, need to be suitably ventilated, either with opening windows or forced ventilation. Clause G4.1 states: “The objective of this provision is to safeguard people from illness or loss of amenity due to lack of fresh air.” There are many benefits to forced, or mechanical, ventilation over opening windows, including warmth, security, reduction of outside noises and reduction of condensation. Traditional domestic ventilation systems are ‘positive pressure’. They bring air in from outside via the roof space and force the stale air out through gaps around windows and doors. The incoming air from these systems has to be heated or cooled to keep the house warm in winter or cool in summer. The Smooth-Air HEX390 is a ‘balanced pressure’ system. It extracts air from the house and at the same time brings in fresh air. These two streams of air pass through a heat exchanger, which warms incoming air in winter and cools in summer if air conditioning is being used. This means that up to 80% of the energy which would be

ced n a l a B ure Press on lati i t n e V

wasted using a traditional positive pressure system is recovered, resulting in significant energy savings and therefore lower heating or cooling costs. Until recently, balanced pressure ventilation systems have been considerably more expensive than traditional positive pressure systems. However, with Smooth-Air’s unique manufacturing capabilities, a HEX390 balanced pressure system can be installed for a similar price as a traditional positive pressure system.

• We have re-scoped 50 properties who have been under paid for their repairs. • Have your initial repairs failed? • Did you receive your full entitlement? • Do not pay your excess until all repairs are completed. • General under payments are: Asbestos testing and exterior lead paint, peeling wallpaper, cracking in exterior plaster not repaired correctly.

It’s an important part of our security that we know who is coming into our sites. Our security guards will have a quick conversation with people before they come into our offices to discuss why a person is there, and help make sure we don’t admit anyone who might represent a risk to the safety of other clients or our staff.
