FRASER WALKER-PEARCE

The proposed location for the QE II replacement facility and two schools has sparked accessibility issues for a medical centre and the controversial Eastern Recreation Sports and Centre.

The Travis Medical Centre uses part of the former QE II facility as parking, but is now fearful it could be lost with the Ministry of Education looking to relocate Shirley Boys’ and

Avonside Girls’ High schools to the site.

The controversial Eastern Rec-reation and Sports Centre will also be located to the north.

The Burwood-Pegasus Com-munity Board on Monday received the ministry’s proposal

to purchase about 11.5ha for the relocation of Shirley Boys’ and Avonside Girls’ High schools.

It is proposed the schools be located near Travis Rd with playing fields to the north of both school, with a shared area comprising of a gym, performing arts outdoor theatre, and shared administration block.

The ERS is located by Mark Treffers Drive, to the north.

The Travis Medical Centre is concerned that its five-year lease of land for parking in QE II Park

could be compromised when the two schools move in.

Travis Medical Centre prac-tice manager Linda Adams said the parking area was crucial for patients.

“It provides more space for patients and more access. Our pa-tients would have to park out on the street if we just have car park . . . we’d want the lease to extend indefinitely really – and it’s only a tiny little bit of land, out of a massive section,” she said.

FRASER WALKER-PEARCE

Temporary rock fill, sandbags, planting, and edge replenishments are some of the “short-term intervention” strategies to mitigate the erosion of the estuary’s eastern stop banks.

Last week, the Pegasus Post reported that eastern residents feel unsafe due to the estuary’s emergency stop banks eroding.

The Southshore and South New Brighton residents’ as-sociations sent letters to the Burwood-Pegasus Commu-nity Board, asking it to make a meeting with city council staff regarding the stop banks.

The residents’ associations are lobbying for repairs to the stop banks, saying the city council needs to urgently install more flood protection.

The city council supports the view that stop banks are erod-ing in the east, but has not sur-veyed or measured the extent of the erosion.

South Brighton Residents’

Association chairman Hugo Kristinsson (inset) said the city council was acting “negligent-ly” when it came to the safety of eastern residents.

“They’re dangerous (the stop banks) – we’ve asked that they’re looked at, and we’ve been turned away . . . it’s very messy for the city council, and I fear the subject is planned to be used as an election tool, which is of no use to the people.

“For them to come up with

something as wishy-washy as this (the short-term solutions), I find it not good enough. We have come to learn the hard way that it doesn’t matter what they show us, without a budget it means nothing,” he said.

Unit manager storm water and land drainage rebuild Keith Davison said site observations support the idea that erosion is happening, but as of yet, has not been measured.

“Site observations support the

view that erosion has occurred in some areas away from the Ebbtide St stop bank but this has not been surveyed or mea-sured explicitly,” he said.

Mr Davison said erosion measurement is not required to make short-term strategies.

“The council has undertaken sufficient observations to confirm that erosion is occurring. Survey and measurement has not been required to inform early discus-sions on short-term intervention strategies. Detailed survey and more intensive monitoring may be required in the future,” he said.

Mr Kristinsson said a sure-fire fix is “probably not” going to happen.

“City councillors will say ‘yes I’ll work on getting a budget for this’. But we’ve been asking for a long-term plan here for a long time, but if it’s going to take place, is unclear,” he said.

A meeting will be held in April between city council staff and representatives from the Southshore and South Brighton residents’ associations.

THREE TAKEN TO HOSPITALThree people were taken to hospital with moderate injuries after their cars collided in Wainoni recently. The crash on Ottawa Rd was re-ported to St John at about 3am on February 14.

TEEN ALMOST DROWNSA teenager was taken to hospital in a moderate condition after nearly drowning off New Brighton Beach recently. The woman in her mid-teens was swimming near the New Brighton Pier, and had to be pulled from the sea by St John. They were alerted to the incident at about 12.30pm on February 14 and she was taken to hospital.

QUAKE MOSAIC FOR LIBRARYA mosaic surf board decorated by earthquake broken china will be do-nated to the New Brighton Library in the coming weeks. Art group Crack’d for Christchurch will do-nate the colourful short board to the library, where it will be placed on the wall above some seating. The group use broken china from the 2010 and 2011 earthquakes to decorate items, such as a chair, ottoman and now a surf board. The group asked the ‘Peoples Independent Republic of New Brighton’ Facebook page for the donation of a surf board for their project, and a donor was found. After six months’ work on the surf board, it was recently completed. The group hopes to see the surf board in the library by the end of the month.

School decile ratings are a contentious issue. Waltham School principal Gordon Caddie says they give the public an inaccurate way of assessing how ‘good’ a school might be.

A recent review of school deciles put the spotlight back on the whole system of assigning each school in New Zealand a number from 1-9 based on household ‘economic indicators’ from the latest cen-sus.

As some school deciles ‘went up’ they cried foul at thousands of dollars of lost funding, while other schools that ‘went down’, stayed understandably silent at their increased funding, coming as a result of their loss in social status.

It’s hard to criticise the inten-tion of the New Zealand Decile System. Giving extra resources to the schools that draw from poorer communities makes sense. After all it’s logical to assume these ‘lower decile’ com-

munities have less ability to raise local funds and higher numbers of students requiring more sup-port to reach such benchmarks as ‘national standards’.

As principal of a lower decile school I have seen first-hand how hard it can be to raise local funds and how quickly the extra ‘decile funding’ can be swallowed up on extra teacher aide hours, staffing to keep class numbers manage-able and even in some cases basic necessities such as food to feed hungry children.

There is however, a concern-ing, unintended result of the decile system. The public has grabbed on to these numbers from 1-9 as a very conveni-ent (yet very inaccurate) way of assessing how ‘good’ a

school might be. This, along-side a political climate that has encouraged parents to ‘shop around’ for the ‘best’ school, has meant families ‘that can’ are often driving across town to ‘higher decile’ schools. While the rich get richer the poor get poorer.

There is some good news though. If my recent experience in my own school is represent-ative of the bigger picture then attitudes may be changing.

When choosing a school less prospective parents are asking about ‘deciles’. Instead they are talking to their commu-nity, asking their pre-schools, and visiting and talking with principals and teachers to get a greater knowledge of their local schools. This enables schools that are successful and also work hard on building positive relationships to blos-som and truly reflect their local communities.

SOAP BOX

Last week the Pegasus Post featured a story on Southshore and South New Brighton residents’ concerns over potentially dangerous stop banks. Readers responded:

Yvonne Ryan: Absolutely crazy to build there – of course more flooding! Floodbanks won’t keep the tide out!

Marion Ogier: It must feel like the “let’s see what we can get away with” principle from those in power.

Pamela Neil: Why can’t these different groups get together and work things out between them instead of all doing something different and whinging?

MARK THOMAS – FIRE RISK MANAGEMENT OFFICER

Life has never been fair. So we shouldn’t have been surprised that last Sunday’s shake was right up there amongst the top 10 since 2010.

But I think most of us were, no pun intended, rather jolted by it. It’s been so long since those days and weeks of continual shaking that most of us have moved on and put the permanent ‘on edge’ feeling in a box and filed it. Well the box re-appeared on Sunday with the lid wide open.

More gratifying was the lack of widespread damage which

is probably best illustrated by the fact we responded to just 15 earthquake related calls on Sunday.

Sumner brigade went and checked out the most dramatic scenes as the cliffs fell down but had very little to actually do as a result.

A call to chemicals leaking and affecting some staff at St Bede’s College on Tuesday was most likely a delayed result of Sunday’s shake as the store-room involved had not been entered since then. Two teachers were treated by ambulance and crews in breathing apparatus and protective gear cleaned the mess up.

FRASER WALKER-PEARCE

A number of near misses between Bromley School children and trucks on a busy road has prompted a call for urgent safety measures.

The intersection of Keighleys and Bromley Rds is a popular route for pupils.

But it is also a popular track for trucks, which have caused many near misses in the past few months.

The school asked the Burwood-Pegasus Community Board alongside the Bromley Comu-nity Centre to install a flashing 40km/h speed zone sign and speed bumps.

Teacher and chairwoman of the Bromley Community Centre Cathy Baker said she took her new entrants to the roadside to count the number of trucks that passed the intersection in 15min.

“We counted over 150 vehicles from 2pm until 2.15pm . . . as well as that there were also two people who nearly got hit recent-ly,” she said.

Ms Baker said the traffic speed needed to be reduced if they were to ever see an improvement in the

number of parents who walk their children to school.

“Parents won’t let their kids walk to or from school because it’s too dangerous for them.

If a pedestrian crossing wouldn’t solve the problem, may-be we should put in a judder bar and an island in, so they have to slow down,” she said.

Many of the schools 400 pupils use the Bromley and Keighleys Rds intersection to get home, she said.

“They zoom past day after day. We see vehicles going 50km/h down that road. The majority of them are large trucks – we need flashing signs saying slow down to 40,” Ms Baker said.

MOVED TO THE BACK? The proposed position for the Eastern Sports and Recreation Centre in dark blue as compared to the Ministry of Education schools area in light blue.

•From page 1The board has asked city

council staff to look at options for car parking, including sell-ing it to the medical centre.

The ministry hopes to have the new schools completed by 2018.

The plans have also raised ire over access to the ERS, saying it is too far away from Travis Rd.

Dallington resident Emma

Jamieson, who has been vocal over the city council plans, said the proposed location of the schools should be more ac-cessible from Travis Rd.

But city council recreation and sports unit manager said John Filsell said the centre was in a “prime position” with room to expand.

Consultation on the plans closes on April 4 with hearings later that month.

Free Red Cross Recovery Matters Workshops For The EastIn response to last Sunday’s 5.7 magnitude earthquake, New Zealand Red Cross is offering two free Recovery Matters community workshops in the eastern suburbs this week.

The two workshops will be held on Tuesday evening at Parklands Baptist Church and Thursday evening at Bromley Community Centre.

Both workshops will run from 7pm to 8pm and are provided free of charge to members of the community.

Red Cross Recovery Matters workshops provide an opportunity for residents to get together with a trained psychosocial facilitator and a Red Cross outreach volunteer. The facilitator spends about 45 minutes explaining the impacts a disaster has on a community and individuals, the effects of long-term stress and ways of building and maintaining well-being through stressful times.

These workshops are interactive with plenty of opportunities for questions and discussion. The facilitator and outreach volunteer are available after the workshop to talk with people about their situations. For more information visit www.redcross.org.nz or phone (03) 338 4969 ext 3553.

Details of each workshop are as follows:

Hi Kelly, thanks for chatting to me. We’ll start off with an easy one – what’s your favourite breed of dog?

I wouldn’t say I have a favou-rite. All the dogs that come in here are cross-bred so I guess I prefer the rescued breed. We rescue and re-home condemned pound dogs at the centre. After they have their seven days at the pound there is a decision made whether to send them to an adoption centre or they are destroyed. They bring any type of dog to us, we have all kinds of breeds.

Okay. So how do you help families find the right dog?

It depends on what they’re looking for. We’re here to match a dog to them and their life-style. It highly depends on what we have and what they want.

We’re having a really good run at the moment with re-homing dogs. There seems to be a lot of people that want to adopt at the moment.

So you’re a matchmaker in a way?

We are kind of matchmakers in a way! We have no knowl-edge of the dog’s background, so we have to learn about the people they’re going to. We have a pretty casual interview with them where we want to know if they have had dogs be-fore and we ask about fencing, what kind of activities they’ll do with the dogs, whether they’ll be left at home, and want to know about everything they will do with the dog.

Ah I see. How long have you worked at the adoption centre?

I have been here for two and a half years now, and I’m 32. Before that I was at home with my son, Zack, he’s six now and at Heathcote Primary.

And I’ll bet he loves it?He just loves it and he loves

to learn, loves his friends and teachers.

What does your job entail?It’s pretty cool because I’ll

never have one day that’s the same as the next. I do everything from picking up poo and clean-ing kennels to leading the social media activity for the centre.

I also currently train about 65 volunteers. The volunteers do a range of jobs, from helping the day-to-day running of the centre, to cleaning the kennels, or out in the yard doing poo patrol, or even walking some of the dogs. Although I wish it was some-times, it isn’t about playing with puppies it’s about working and helping re-home the dogs.

And how about your own pets – how many dogs do you have?

I have a cat and a goldfish, but no dog. I don’t have time for a dog, between working and being with my son, I choose to have my time. I do foster dogs, but between work and my child it would be unfair

to have a dog full-time. I would love to have one. Zack named the cat Lightning, after Lightning McQueen and Hiccup is the goldfish, named after the

homes for dogs in needI think in general I just love

my job, that’s my favourite. People say to me all the time who wouldn’t love your job? But their idea of my job is dif-ferent to what it actually is. It’s a really neat environment to work in, everyone is really lovely.

I’m lucky because I enjoy it every day. I’ve never woken up and said to myself ‘I don’t want to go to work’. The worst part is the dogs that we can’t save. If they’ve been damaged in whatever way, and they’re beyond care it’s a sad reality that we can’t save them all.

It’s not something that hap-pens often – we have a very low euthanasia rate and it’s not a decision made lightly. You always think about the what if scenarios. It’s the toughest part of the job and the toughest part for our volunteers.

That is rough. What were you doing before your work at the centre?

Before I was looking after Zack, I was working at a board-ing kennel, and before that I was on a dairy farm.

Oh right. In Canterbury?No, that was in Orini in the

Waikato, I’m from there origi-nally.

Ah . . . do you back the Chiefs or the Crusaders?

Probably the Crusaders if they played right now. Zack loves the Crusaders, he was born in Canterbury.

Good to hear. Where did you go to school?

I went to school in Orini. My schooling started at a primary that doesn’t exist now, and then to

Orini Combined School. I went to Fairfield College in Hamilton after that, and then I went to polytechnic and studied marketing when I left school. That’s where I met Zack’s father, and our lives changed when we came to Christ-church and had him.

Did you always know that you wanted to work with animals when you were

younger?No, I actually can’t remem-

ber what I wanted to do, but it wasn’t always going to be at the kennels. My brother drives tankers for Fonterra, and my other brother is a dairy farmer. One is older and one is younger. So we’re all still involved with animals one way or another. Mum is in Northland and dad

passed away.Oh I’m sorry about

that. Have you done much travelling in your time?

No, and it’s something that I would love to do, and something I’d want to do with Zack. We used to walk and tramp quite frequently, but unfortunately he was diagnosed with a hip condition, which is a bit of a dampener. It’s called Perthes disease. We were lucky enough to secure a wheelchair for him. Now our biggest travelling is going to see family, and he loves that. He’s also really looking forward to the family fun day at the kennels.

That’s not great – I bet it makes it difficult for him?

It can be very difficult pain wise and with the limitations it puts on him. With it just being me we don’t really have any op-tions, he’s number one. Hopeful-ly he will go into regrowth and the bone will re-grow, but he will have issues that will last his whole life. All he wants to do is run and jump, and before he was playing football and martial arts, but now he’s not allowed to play sports, no jumping. Now it’ll be at least a couple of years before he can get back into it.

CARING: Kelly works at the Dogwatch Adoption Centre, caring for dogs that need to be re-homed.

The final event for 2015 was our Junior Awards, held on the last day of school.

We would like to highlight our Premier Award winners. Below are their citations from the awards ceremony.

Our first two awards are for a Year 9 & 10 student, respectively, who have worked hard to achieve their potential while also respecting the needs of others.

The Mackenzie Award, goes to a Year 9 student.

This award went to a young man who has impressed everyone with his fine personal qualities. He is enthusiastic about everything that he does. He is personable, positive, respectful, and polite in all of his interactions with others. He is also cooperative, friendly, and helpful in every learning situation. In short, he is an outstanding young person, with interesting ideas, a desire to learn, and a willingness to embrace new challenges or extension learning. His teachers say that he is a pleasure to teach.

His teachers also describe him as resourceful and creative. He has an ability to learn new concepts and processes quickly. He is thoughtful and caring, and often supports others in collaborative and helpful ways. He has excellent work habits and articulates his views and knowledge enthusiastically and with skill.

His teachers say that he is respected by his peers for his positive, out-going nature and spirit, and for the energy and involvement he regularly displays. Teachers also appreciate his excellent self-management skills. We commend him for his ability to be a fine citizen in our community while working hard to achieve his own goals.

The winner of The Mackenzie Award for 2015 is JOSHUA SCHUURMAN.

The Dave Diggs Award goes to a Year 10 student.

The young woman who received this award is described as a fantastic young learner who is a pleasure to teach. She has exemplary work habits. Teachers note that she challenges herself, and looks for creative ideas and

solutions in most endeavours. In fact, her final reports for the year revealed excellence endorsements for all of the following attitudinal aspects: effort, acting respectfully, completing classwork and assignments, and following learning instructions.

Our award winner has been a wonderful example to her peers; she has been described by a number of her teachers as cheerful, productive, determined, and helpful. Her conscientious approach to all things, the quality of her work output, and the respect she shows for her school and the people in it exemplify her maturity of purpose.

She has underscored her core values by achieving excellent results in her academic programmes, including a number of preliminary REACH credits for NCEA in 2016.

Our recipient is a fine example of our school’s values and expectations in action; we applaud her achievements.

The Dave Diggs Award for 2015 goes to EMILY TEAGUE.

Year 9 Top Academic student 2015

Our top academic student in Year 9 is a positive, helpful, well-mannered young woman who approaches her studies with enthusiasm, confidence, dedication and maturity.

She is a disciplined and serious academic, with considerable potential. She respects the learning rights of others, she comes to class ready to learn, and she makes an honest effort in all learning situations. She listens carefully, thinks deeply, writes with clarity, and questions readily. Most importantly, perhaps, she is always willing to help her peers.

She is working at or above expected levels of achievement in all of her subjects. More than that, she is a true role model in her year group, equally at home working independently or as a respectful contributor in collaborative situations. She has also been a member of the Gifted and Talented programme.

Our award winner is a caring and respectful person who contributes positively to the Mairehau ethos of valuing others, doing one’s very best, and reaching one’s potential. Her teachers value her positive, friendly and

reliable approach, and say that her successes are very well deserved.

Her academic record shows that she achieved outstanding results in English, Food Technology, French, Health Education and Social Studies.

The recipient of the top academic student in Year 9 award for 2015 is CAITLYN BARNETT-JOHNSTON

Year 10 Top Academic student 2015

Our top academic student in Year 10 is a very capable, engaging and pleasant mannered young man who has sustained outstanding levels of effort, commitment and quality in almost everything that he has done over his two years with us, particularly in his co-curricular interest areas.

He has a wide range of skills, and considerable natural ability, which he complements with thorough planning and careful execution of his projects. His willingness to seek feedback and to engage positively and respectfully with his teachers has been a particularly admirable quality.

He completes tasks with care, and in depth, settling to work quickly, and with purpose. He contributes to class discussions and is not afraid to take safe intellectual risks. At the same time, he has sufficient self-awareness to seek guidance for the clarification of ideas or thinking, and he is a careful listener.

Our award winner’s academic record shows that he achieved outstanding results in Design and Visual Communication, Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies. He has also enjoyed successes, as part of the school’s REACH programme, in achieving a number of other early NCEA credits in a range of subjects. He has been a valued member of the Gifted and Talented programme.

He is now ready to tackle the demands of his senior years and NCEA, knowing that a wonderful platform for success has been established.

The top academic student in Year 10 for 2015 is NIKOLAI SMITH

The Principal’s DeskKia ora and welcome to all. I take this opportunity to wish everyone a successful start to the 2016 school year. I would particularly like to acknowledge our Year 9 students, new students to the school, international students and new families to Mairehau High School.

Plenty has already happened in Mairehau High School this term. Our 2015 NCEA participation results are simply exceptional. I wish to congratulate our senior students on their success towards gaining NCEA qualifications. Congratulations to our NCEA Scholarship candidates; well done. Mairehau High School can be immensely proud of your outstanding results.

Mairehau High School focus, in 2016, is to continue to build on the successes of our school. The school has aligned its strategic planning to key national imperatives: 2013- 2017 Achievement Strategy, Building on Success Strategy, and Positive Behaviour for learning Strategy. Mairehau High School is well placed to provide a quality and cohesive teaching and learning programme to all learners who walk through our school gates. We are well placed to serve the needs of our community, and our students.

An important key to the success of students in a secondary school is the involvement of parents with the school. I welcome all parents, caregivers and supporters to regularly visit your school, meet with our teachers, and discuss in active productive conversations for your child. We can support each other to ensure successful learning outcomes for your children.

All schools want students to access quality education outcomes, to access quality teaching, and quality learning. We wish our students to have opportunities which will enable them to become decent worthwhile citizens of the world. I close with the whakatauki (proverb) I shared with our new Year 9 students.

Ko te manu e kai ana te miro, nona te ngahere.

Otira, ko te manu e kai ana to matauranga, nona to ao

The bird that takes sustenance from the fruit of the miro shall master the ways of the forest.

And the bird that takes sustenance from the fruit of knowledge shall master the ways of the world.

let our students, through learning, master the ways of the world.

Nga mihi

resources provided by this habitat, the scientific importance of wetlands, adaptations of a variety of birds, the diversity of living things in the water and how to identify these aquatic invertebrates. Students also completed the 3.5km Travis Wetland Walk with their teachers where they stopped at the 15 stations to discuss their significance.

GEORGIA O’CONNOR-HARDING

Two students from the New Zealand Broadcasting School have had their film about a dat-ing app accepted into the pres-tigious Cannes Film Festival.

Kyan Krumdieck (right) and Annabelle Dick’s film The Grind made it into the short film corner category and will be screened at the event.

The film features New Zealand people’s experience of the dating app Grindr.

The Grind will be played in the Cannes Court Métrage – the short film corner of the Cannes Film Festival.

Mr Krumdieck said this the corner where there is the oppor-tunity for the films to be bought or distributed in the market.

Finding out the film has been accepted into the Cannes Film Festival has come as significant news Mr Krumdieck, a feminist advocate especially with the Auckland Gay Pride festival that has been running this month.

The film has gained a lot of traction after it won the best stu-dent film in the national “Show Me Shorts” competition last year.

Both Miss Dick and Mr

Krumdieck are both hoping they will go to the film festival event held in May.

Mr Krumdieck said it will cost him and Miss Dick nearly $7000 together to travel over to Cannes and have set up a Givealittle page to help fund flights, accommodation, suits and attire and general expenses.

“My goal is to have a trailer made soon for people to see.”

Both are on internships as part of their studies.

Mr Krumdieck will be intern-ing with TV3’s Seven Days while Miss Dick is down in Dunedin at Channel 39 with Dunedin Television.

Short story writer Barry Southam will be launching his sixth book next week.

Mr Southam, of Mt Pleasant, has been writing fiction for the past 40 years and will be launching his collection of short stories called Exit and Entrances.

The collection includes six stories, 32 poems, and two memoirs, most of which were written in the past 12 months as Mr Southam recovered from a cancer operation.

The collection is inspired by the stories he told his children when they were young.

This includes two memoirs about “colouful characters” in Wellington, and in Kawhia, a small coastal town on the West Coast of the North Island where Mr Southam lived for several years.

Mr Southam also lived with poet James K Baxter in his urban commune in Boyle Crescent, Auckland, in the late 60s, which was described in a memoir Exodus For Some.

As part of the launch of his book Mr Southam will also give a talk he titles The Perils

and Pleasures of Creative Writing.

Having won sev-eral awards in his writing career, Mr Southam has writ-ten plays for both stage and radio – some which were produced at the old Elmwood Playhouse as well as for Radio New Zealand.

His professional career has led him

to writing reviews for theatre and while in Auckland he worked as actor in television shows.

The launch will be held at the Mt Pleasant Community Centre.

The book can be bought for $19.95

A new gymnastics club has opened its doors in Wainoni.

Te Wero Gym-nastics Club was officially opened on February 16, and is situated at 118 Short-land St, Wainoni.

The club will act as a “satellite op-eration” for Olympia Gymnastics Sports Club, meaning it is a smaller building in a different loca-tion to reach a new area.

The new club will offer a new gymnasium for eastern suburb residents and aims to take a fresh approach to gymnastics. Its plans are to deliver an elite programme along with a full range of pre-school, school, recreational and competitive gymnastics programmes for men, women and children.

To help achieve this, the club has secured internation-ally recognised coaches Jozsi Ferencz and Svetlana Sa-zonova.

Both Ms Ferencz and Ms Sazonova have coached

New Zealand representative gymnastics teams in the past.

Business manager for Olympia Gymnastics Sports Club Kathryn Searle said the club offers a “fantastic opportunity” for gymnasts to progress to an elite level, while remaining connected to Olympia.

Scholarships will also be created to support and encourage local children to participate in gymnastics.

The name of the club was chosen to reflect the beliefs of the club while providing an opportunity to use a name that reflects our place, Te Wero is Maori for the chal-lenge.

COASTAL WPL LOSES MATCHCoastal Spirit’s women’s premier league side lost their first match of the pre-season 6-4 against a junior side.

The current WPL champions took on the Coastal under-17 girls squad, which will be travelling to Auckland soon, with the help of some boys from the club.

Women’s premier league coach Alana Gunn said the game was an opportunity to see how the dynamics of the squad would look throughout the season.

At the end of the game the score was 6-4 to the boys but the girls “walked off the pitch happy with the efforts of the first preseason game.”

$300 FOR SURF LIFEGUARDSurf life saver Grace Rowland is one step closer to boarding a plane to Whakatane after receiving a $300 grant from a community board.

The grant from the Burwood-Pegasus Community Board means that 15-year-old can now attend the New Zealand Surf Life Saving Championships in Whakatane.

The Avonside Girls’ High School student joined Spencer Park Surf Life Saving Club four years ago and after becoming a fully qualified surf lifeguard, does about 45 hours of voluntary patrol work for the club over summer.

Environmental charitable organisation LiteClub is continuing to help Christchurch sports clubs save money.

Since starting in 2014 the organisation has visited 53 clubs in the Canterbury region and LiteClub head of operations Sam Maclean said it was all about reducing clubs’ carbon footprint.

“Think of how many more gold medal Olympians we would have if every grassroots club spend more of their funding on coach-

ing and equipment for our future stars rather than on their power and energy bills,” he said.

Each time the organisation goes to a club, the team spends two to three hours installing as many eco-friendly products as possible from LED lightbulbs to recycling centres.

The organisation then compiles a report to indicate what further changes can be made and give as-sistance with product advice and possible funding options.

Mr Maclean said after a visit to the area in October last year, the

organisation has returned to keep up with demand.

“During our last visit we unfor-tunately couldn’t get around to all the clubs that registered with us so we have come down again to get round to the rest of them,” he said.

While in Christchurch, the organisation will spend time with the following clubs – Papanui Rugby League, Christchurch Yachting , Mt Pleasant Squash, New Brighton Athletics, Heath-cote cricket and the Waitikiri Golf Club

Ding in the door? Scrape on the bumper? If your vehicle has minor damage like this, perhaps incurred at the

supermarket car park, then Smart Repairs

Personal service

and quick turnaround for minor scrapes and bumps

in Lichfield Street is the place to get it sorted out.

Smart (Small to medium automotive repair techniques) Repairs, provides a top-quality service with a quick turnaround

– vehicles are usually in and out within a couple of days. Services include paintless dent removal, or PDR, and while a large proportion of the work is non-insurance, they also provide insurance quotes if required.

The business is owned and operated by Brian and Maxine Caffell. Brian has 31 years’ experience in the trade and the couple bought their first panelbeating business in 1993. They employ two staff members – spray painter Dave and labourer Ashley.

As a small, friendly operation, Maxine explains, Smart Repairs specialises in

small to medium repair work – no job is too small – and their aim is to offer personalised service to make it easy for their customers, who may be unsure what to do if their vehicle gets damaged.

“We take pride in our work and ensure that our customers are happy with the results.

We also offer a pick-up and delivery service if required.”

Smart Repairs is located at 272 Lichfield St, at the Fitzgerald Avenue end. Opening hours are 8am-4.30pm Monday to Friday. To enquire about repairs to your vehicle, call in and have a chat, or phone 377-0409.

Reserved for you 37 Springwater Ave, NorthwoodAuction: March 03, 20163 bedrooms | 2 bathrooms | 2 toilets | 2 living rooms | 1 office/study | 2-car garage | 6 off-street parks | Listing #: PI42476

Built from Oamaru stone and framed by fabulous gardens, and a stunning reserve aspect, this stylish contemporary home plays host to

three bedrooms, two bathrooms (including an en suite off the master) and the added convenience of a generous study. No where is the attention to detail that went into the design and construction of this superlative residence more evident than in the kitchen, a highly functional space complete with all the prerequisite bells and whistles.

A variety of living zones offer flexibility for any and every occasion, with both the dining area and the conservatory enjoying compelling views across to the adjacent native reserve. A double-sided gas fire contributes to the home’s inherent warmth, and high ceilings enhance the sense of space, while seamless indoor/outdoor flow ensures you’ll spend plenty of time enjoying the magnificent grounds.

And it’s here that our green-thumbed vendors have really thrived, pouring considerable time and energy into the establishment of a fabulous outdoor area. Lush lawns offer plenty of room for the kids to play and the pets to roam, while sun-soaked entertaining spaces ensure the adults have their own space to relax and unwind.

When a change of scenery is required there’s a children’s park right across the road and the Groynes is just a stone’s throw away. Double garaging and plenty of off-street parking completes the appeal, while the

proximity to the Northwood Supa Centre ensures every amenity you could ever need is within easy reach.

The pride our owners have taken in their home is clear for all to see, and the decision to leave was certainly not an easy one to reach. But with their minds made up and their thoughts now focused on the next chapter of their lives, they present their lovingly maintained home to the market with genuine determination and resolve.

Open Days: Saturday and Sunday, 2.30pm to 3.15pm. See you at the open homes or call me today for a private viewing appointment - contact Deb Harvey of Harcourts Gold Papanui (Licensed Agent REAA 2008) on 352 6166 or mobile 027 220 6565.
