Panther volunteer takes NZ league award
• By Andrew King
The 76-year-old played his
first game for the club as a
10-year-old.
He then went through the
grades right up to premier level,
mainly in the second row before
moving to prop in his later
years.
He then started coaching
junior teams taking a team from
the 14s up to the 15s then to the
16s before repeating the process
four or five times.
At 59, he laced his boots
back up and started playing in
the master’s grade for Hornby,
which he still does to this
day.
The award honours the
commitment and dedication he
has shown to the club for more
than six decades.
“I tend to stay in the
background. I am not used
to this kind of attention so it
is pretty overwhelming. I am
honoured,” he said.

Residents
set to

Woods,
Sage over
quarry
• By Emily O’Connell
WIGRAM MP Megan Woods and
the Green Party’s Eugenie Sage will
meet with residents on Saturday
to talk about quarrying issues in
Templeton and Weedons.
This follows news that Fulton
Hogan is considering
developing another
site, 115ha in size, on
Dawsons, Maddisons
and Jones Rds.
The firm has a
licence to carry out
exploratory work on
the city council-owned
land.
Megan
Woods
Fulton Hogan already has plans to
quarry for up to 40 years on a 170ha
section of land next door. It also has
a proposal for a third site of 21ha on
Curraghs Rd.
Templeton and Weedons residents
have expressed their concerns
about the health risks, water issues
and the devaluing of properties at
public meetings in the past couple
of months.

THE HEAT has now really gone on the
Templeton quarry row (see page 1).
Fulton Hogan is exploring a new site,
very close to the 170ha area it wants to
quarry for the next 40 years.
That plan has met with fierce resistance from Templeton and
Weedons residents, and now the latest move will add fuel to the
fire.
The 2011 earthquake has proved a construction boon for Canterbury
and a huge part of that is roads.
The southern motorway is the latest giant sized project and
the aggregate needed is a stone’s throw from where the roading
work is. That means cheap transport costs for the quarry
companies.
The problem is there is another issue: The people that live
there. - Barry Clarke

Skate park delays for Halswell
• By Emily O’Connell
TWO PROPOSED Halswell
skate parks have been delayed
again.
The Halswell Domain and
Knights Stream skate parks are
now expected to be ready by
November and June this year,
respectively.
Initially, the facilities were
supposed to be skate-ready by
January.
But in
December,
city council
head of parks
Brent Smith
said the
“main skate
facilities will
David Hawke
be completed
April, with
landscaping
completed in May.”
This was because the resource
consent process for the domain
skate park took longer than
expected.
Mr Smith said the further
delay is because “city council
staff requested more information
after the resource consent
application.”
“City council staff will
also need to factor in the

second time. ​
existing work commitments of
the preferred contractors
before setting a start date,” he
said.
Halswell Residents’
Association secretary
David Hawke is “extremely
disappointed” with the delay.
Mr Hawke had hoped both
skate parks would have been
completed by the end of the
city council’s financial year on
June 30. He said the delay will
mean “there’s virtually a whole
year of children who will miss
out.”
“Young people are valued parts
of the community, and every
time you delay them you’re sort
of disadvantaging them,” Mr
Hawke said.
Mr Smith said the sites have
been tendered since going out
on November 16, but “start
dates are yet to be set.”
He said the city council does
have “preferred contractors
for each site” and it’s allowing
three months to construct each
facility.
Mr Hawke said that when the
skate parks are built they will be
“fantastic,” especially for helping
to solve youth issues in the
community.
“An ounce of prevention is
worth a pound of cure, my
grandmother would have
said.”

Veterinary practice
Charity work
For a while now, Steve and I have helped
out charity organizations in Christchurch.
We are involved with CPL, redzonecats and
more recently the SPCA. We all really enjoy
the involvement and working relationship
we have with these organizations, ensuring
that these animals get “Gold” Standard
treatment and care in our hospital, just like
any of our pets would receive.
Megan and a tabby kitten in for desexing.
What has amazed me is the total
commitment , kindness and compassion
the inspectors, fosterers, vets and carers we
have dealt with have for these homeless,
sick and often abused animals. Many of
these people work voluntarily. It is not an
easy job, physically or emotionally. They
see a lot of things we shouldn’t have to
be exposed to. They often transform
their homes to cater for the fast growing
number of cats to care for. They do the
very best in terms of nutrition and pet care.
They genuinely care and want to improve
the life and health for this animal.
Working with the CPL means we mainly
desex, microchip and vaccinate kittens who
are living with fosterers until they are ready
to be put up for adoption. One of the best
parts of our day is cuddling these kittens
– all are so cute and huggable. Robyn
who we liase with, has worked tirelessly
and voluntarily for over 25 years for the
CPL and is just one of the kindest most
generous people I know. She makes a huge
difference in the lives of those kittens and
has a dedicated team of fosterers to help.
CPL kittens awaiting their surgery.
Redzonecats also do a remarkable job,
a job no one else was prepared to do, in
that they carefully monitor and trap stray
cats in earthquake redzoned areas and
endeavor to find their previous owners or
socialize and rehome these cats to loving
families. Many of these cats have been
alone and “just surviving” since 2011 and

so are difficult for us to handle without
sedation. Initially we check these cats for
FIV and FeLV ( Feline Aids or Feline leukemia
Virus) and if they test negative we will often
desex and vaccinate these cats, perform
dentistry on mouths that require it, and
groom or xray where appropriate. These
cats are given a fantastic chance and we
all treat them with respect, kindness and
humility. We love helping out Jane and her
cats. Another outstanding woman who
genuinely cares about animals.
Recently we have started working
alongside the SPCA. This has been
particularly rewarding diagnosing and
treating these animals to the best of
our ability and providing them with a
level of kindness and care they often
haven’t experienced before. The SPCA
inspectors we deal with are a wonderful
bunch of passionate, gentle people who
are solely dedicated to helping improve
the lives of the animals in their care. We
examine sick and uplifted animals, provide
diagnostics such as xrays, blood testing
and ultrasounds where necessary and
we provide intensive care monitoring if
needed. Due to being open 7 days, the
weekends can often be busy checking out
SPCA patients and providing a treatment
plan.
We even see tortoises - here Kirsty is
performing a hind leg amputation
to save its life.
Steve and I are very proud to be
associated with the above organizations
and we have met some fabulous people
along the way, who all share our views
that a pets’ life is just as important as our
own, and these special furry friends of ours
should be treated and cared for exactly
the same. We are all headed in the same
direction whereby we want to decrease
animal abuse and abandonment by way of
providing the correct education to people,
care that is affordable and showing respect
and kindness to everyone, regardless of
where they come from. Everyone does
deserve the love and companionship of
owning a pet but it’s not a decision to be
taken lightly and the correct advice and
education from us as health professionals is
vitally important for a successful outcome.

Past and present Villa

FOUR OF Villa Maria
College’s past and present
principals got together
recently to talk about the
school’s 100-year history.
One of the city’s oldest
schools, Villa Maria was
founded by the Sisters of
Mercy.
Three former and
one current principal
will be in attendance at
the college’s centennial
celebrations, which take
place on February 16-18.
They are Sister Pauline
O’Regan, principal from
1950-1966; Sister Mary

Mary Lynch, 1993-2012;
and current principal,

attended the school has
been carefully researched
for a new book, Mercy
Women: The Villa Maria
Story, by historian and
author Sean Brosnahan.
An extract from the
book describes the arrival
of the Sisters of Mercy 100
years ago at the site which
was to become Villa
Maria.
“On Saturday, 2
February, 1918, a smart
new governess cart
made its way out into
the countryside west of
Christchurch. Aboard
was a party of women,
all wearing religious
habits. At that time,
the distinctive costume
marked the women
out as Sisters of Mercy.
They were on their way
to Upper Riccarton to
take possession of a
fine old farmhouse and
the 16 acres of fields,
orchards and gardens
that surrounded it. The
farmhouse was to be their
new convent. It would also
serve as the headquarters
for the Sisters in
Canterbury.”
For most of Villa
Maria’s history, the Sisters
of Mercy were firmly
at the helm, with the
first “lay” principal not
introduced until 1993.
These women grew and
adapted as leaders of the
school so the college could
succeed in the future.
The book is available
to purchase at www.

the centennial weekend
events.

OPPORTUNITY: Mike Molloy, who has been appointed
principal of a new school in Knights Stream Park, Halswell,
looks over the proposed site. PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER
Principal appointed for
new school in Halswell
• By Emily O’Connell
FORMER Broadfield School
principal Mike Molloy has been
appointed principal of Halswell’s
newest primary school in
Knights Stream Park.
The school, on the corner of
Richmond and Killarney Aves,
will open early 2019.
It will cater for up to 450 pupils
from year 0-8.
Mr Molloy believes his five
years at Broadfield helped him
get his new role.
“I took a school which wasn’t
in the best state when I took it
on and when I left we had lots of
people applying to go there so we
had to put a zone in,” he said.
Admittedly though, Mr Molloy
wasn’t looking for change when
the new opportunity arrived.
“These sort of new schools are
a bit of a rarity for a principal to
apply for. It’s just that opportunity
to do something quite special
for a community,” he said.
The school’s board of trustees
is made up of chairman Warren
Read, deputy chairwoman Sarah
Lowe, Amanda Wall, Giarne
Harrison and Rodney King.
Mr Molloy said the culture the
board has “already established is
phenomenal” and he’s “never felt
so welcome.”
His wife, Anna, teaches at
Clearview Primary School in
Rolleston.
Their son Max, 10, and daughter
Belle, 8, both go to Clearview
and Mr Molloy said they have no
plans to change that.
Mr Molloy said the school’s
name has been decided but they
are awaiting confirmation from
the Ministry of Education.
The ministry has applied for
resource consent to the city
council.
In its consent application, the
ministry said it wants to build 19
new teaching spaces, a library,
administration area, resource
area, hall, site infrastructure
works and minor landscaping.
Mr Molloy’s next challenge
is sorting out school colours,
branding and an identity.
Part of that, is creating an online
presence for the community.
He’s also hoping to run a community
event in March at the
school’s site before construction
begins.
•From page 1
Dr Woods said residents are
doing a “really good job” and she
is looking forward to meeting
with them.
“My advice to them will be
to encourage them to do what
they’re doing and that is continuing
to make contact and bring
the issue before decision-makers,”
she said.
When asked whether she will
be an advocate for residents, Dr
Woods said she is going to listen,
see what the issues are and try
and find a solution.
Although the 115ha section of
land is owned by the city council,

Owner John Tooby said the
next stage of Lady Wigram
was now well under way,
featuring another 14 apartments,
swimming pool, spa and gym.
When completed, there will
be 73 apartments, a rest home, a
dementia facility and a
hospital.
“In our experience, a lot of
people are choosing to move
into retirement village life earlier
because they recognise the
benefits of the ease of living and
it allows them greater freedom
and more social interaction.
“This means that it’s really
important for us to provide
amenities that help residents to
socialise and keep active. More
and more, retirement villages are
becoming communities within
their own right.”

5.7ha Lady Wigram site from

NZPM issued the licence as

“The city council has only

has not given any such approval,”

He said the city council will be

A MBIE spokesman said Fulton
Hogan was granted the fiveyear

He said “exploration activities
include surveys, sampling,
aeromagnetic surveys,
exploratory drilling, geological
studies, compiling reports and
analysing data.”
“Any discoveries are then
evaluated for their commercial
feasibility. But before any mining
or extraction can take place a
mining permit is required from
NZPM,” the spokesman said.
However, he said before work
can begin on land, a resource
consent is generally required.

Fire rages, homes at risk
Uni students’ effect on residents
Ilam and
Upper
Riccarton
Residents’
Association
chairman Phil
McGoldrick
talks about
what is
happening in
the community
RADICAL CHANGE is in the
air in our community.
After three months of blissful
peace and quiet, university
students are about to arrive or
return to their studies and all
else that goes with tertiary life.
Canterbury University plays a
significant role in Christchurch
but has the most impact in our
area, so once again it will be
intriguing to measure the change
that will occur.
Many intelligent, ambitious
and hard-working students
will take up lodgings in the
halls of residence, and many of
the same ilk who were in such
accommodation previously will
become tenants in the many
rental properties that form part
of this area.
And for some of you this
may be a little foreboding,
ADJUSTMENTS: After three months “of blissful peace and quiet”, Ilam and Upper Riccarton
Residents’ Association chairman Phil McGoldrick says things are going to change in the area as
Canterbury University starts back up.
perhaps because of previous bad
experiences.
My hope is that these learned
or learning young folk enjoy
their sojourn in our community
with its excellent amenities, and
that the community enjoys them.
And we will if they respect
all others who have made their
homes here and raise good
young Cantabrians here.
Perennially, there is always a
minority who do not show such
respect or consideration and give
the entire student populace a bad
rap as a result.
Might I suggest that if you
have a new group moving into
your area, take the initiative,
go and say hi and welcome,
tell them about the area and
its residents and this way those
otherwise blissfully unaware will
recognise there is a community
at work around them. The
university has invited our
community to the first of its
2018 community meetings
tonight at 6pm to be held at
the new Ernest Rutherford
building, a magnificent new
state-of-the-art complex. I
encourage you to attend.
I know the university is in
discussion with the city council
trying to alleviate the enormous
parking issues that surround the
uni.
I think the city council has
been remiss in deferring any
changes to its current plan. But
as long as we remain apathetic
we will always pay a price.

Re-purposed
products
for new and
renovated homes
For Canterbury people, the name
Musgroves is synonymous with recycled
and pre-loved building materials and
household items that can happily find a
place in their new or renovated home.
Founded by Dave Musgrove in 1942
as a general cartage company, it became
Musgrove Bros when Dave was joined
by his brother Alf in 1946. The business
operated as a cartage and road contracting
company until 1970.
The previous year, when the management
was taken over by Graeme Vickers, the
company’s work had extended to include
demolition and the sale of recycled
materials. Demolition continued for a
number of years, before Musgroves began
to specialise in buying and selling recycled
building materials.
Since those early days, the product mix
has evolved, and there are now many
different types of product carried by
Musgroves, general manager Sue Brown
says. Volume has expanded significantly
too, with some 70,000 items now on the
yard at any one time, including new and
pre-used.
For Musgroves, re-purposing products is
at the heart of their philosophy, Sue says.
“We’re here to help people with their
renovations. Many of our items are
materials left over from building jobs, such
as insulation, roofing iron, trellis etc.
“The pre-used items people bring in
include items such as doors, ranchsliders,
windows, and kitchen units. And there is
a huge selection for customers to browse
through.”
People renovating older properties often
need to match existing items that are no
longer being manufactured, a problem that
can often be solved at Musgroves. They
have Pinex ceiling tiles, for example, and
clay roof tiles, most of which are now not
available on the market.
Those building new homes and wanting
to add character to a contemporary design
may choose to install tongue and groove
flooring made from recycled timber, or use
old door and cupboard handles or locks,
Sue says.
With new building products continually
being developed and replacing existing
ones, the range at Musgroves is constantly
changing and growing.
Musgroves is located at 3 Musgrove
Close, Wigram. Opening hours are
Monday to Friday 8am-5pm, Saturday
8am-4pm.
Check out their website for new arrivals
and specials, www.musgroves.co.nz
Our very knowledgeable and
friendly team prides itself
on giving every visitor to our
yard a great experience.

Reverse the signs of aging naturally with the
newest LED Facial Device to New Zealand!
As summer comes to a close, your skin,
especially your face needs hydration and
rejuvenation. Coming off the heat wave
Christchurch has been experiencing, the
elasticity in your skin will have shrivelled
after being exposed to the drying, aging
outdoor elements.
Now there is a machine that is sweeping
the globe and has landed in Christchurch.
Experience the eleven beauty treatments
accomplished within one facial mask. LED
was invented by NASA as they were looking
for a light source to be able to grow plants
in space, from this they found that it had
amazing skin cell rejuvenation & it wasn’t
long before LED was used in hospitals
around the world.
People are experiencing the full facial
rejuvenating experience with the LED light
therapy with documented results in:
Anti-Ageing – Wrinkles, Age spots,
Scaring
Anti-Acne – Antibacterial, Reduces
inflammation
Cell Rejuvenation - Eczema
Reduce Redness – Rosacea, Sunburn
Even Skin Tones – Hyper-Pigmentation
Skin Booster – Collagen Rejuvenation
Skin Soothing – Psoriasis
Pain Blocker – Reduce swollen capillaries
Charmaine McFarlane has established a
new salon to accommodate her Aduro LED
light therapy equipment for a business that
runs parallel to her popular Sparklewhite
teeth-whitening programme.
Charmaine says the light therapy
encourages new cells to regenerate.
Depending on the particular skin condition
the client wants to treat, he or she will don
an Aduro LED face mask that emits light of
a particular colour.
“We cleanse, exfoliate, tone and apply a
serum to the skin before putting the client
under LED light,” Charmaine says.
“The bonus is with this salon LED light
therapy we can whiten your teeth at the
same time as you are having your facial”,
there is no other machine in the world that
can do this!”

Hi from the team at
McGirr Motors
It is almost a year since McGirr Motors
moved to their new premises in Gloucester
Street.
As we approach our first anniversary
trading from our new workshop at 332
Gloucester St, we look back at what has
been an exciting year for us.
Owner, Gary Lake wishes to thank family
and friends who helped in getting us off to
such a good start. Relocating was a huge
undertaking and we could not have done it
without you all.
Gary and right-hand man Yutaka are still
on board. They have also employed two
new mechanics – Terry, who has 30-plus
years’ experience, and Jacob, their thirdyear
apprentice.
“Thank you to our customers (old and
new) for your continued support, which
has helped grow our business in this new
location,” Gary says.
“Now in our 18th year, our qualified and
experienced mechanics still strive to give
the professional and friendly service which
McGirr Motors is known for.”
The services provided include:
• WOF
• Servicing and Mechanical Repairs
• Diagnostics
• Batteries
• Brakes
• Clutch
• Tyres etc.
“If you have any concerns about your
vehicle, please don’t hesitate to call or drop
in,” Gary says. “We would be delighted to
take care of your car maintenance.”
In this summer of record temperatures,
Gary recommends a vehicle check to test
your air-conditioning and cooling system.
To make your appointment, phone
03 379 6698 or email gary@mcgirrmotors.

Workshop address is: 332 Gloucester St
(cnr Gloucester St & Fitzgerald Ave. This
