Brakes 

on bid 

to move 

kart club 

• By Anan Zaki 

MIKE MORA has been 

temporarily yellow-carded in 

his bid to have the kart club in 

Halswell moved to McLeans 

Island. 

The Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton 

Community Board chairman 

wanted to make a deputation to 

the city council over the longrunning 

issue. 

But fellow board members have 

stopped him in his tracks until 

more discussion is held as to who 

will do the bidding to the city 

council. 

At last week’s community board 

meeting Mr Mora said he would 

make a deputation to the city 

council asking for $70,000 to be 

granted to KartSport Canterbury. 

The money will be used to help 

with the kart club’s $3.5 million 

relocation process from Halswell 

to McLeans Island. 

Initially, board members agreed, 

but when former mayor Vicki 

Buck returned to the meeting from 

phone calls, the dynamic changed. 

The kart club grant was meant 

to be discussed at a full council 

meeting last Thursday but was 

postponed to September 27 due to 

the agenda being too long.

HAT’S OFF to Keri and Dave Glassenbury 

for their great initiative in Halswell (see 

page 8). 

They have set up the Sharing Shack and 

as the name says it’s all about sharing. 

The shack is a food shelf, where people 

can donate food and for those who need it, they can take it. 

“The whole idea is, if there is anybody out there struggling 

in any way, you don’t have to put a thing in there, just take the 

food,” Keri told reporter Anan Zaki. 

Keri has been a community helper in Halswell for a couple of 

years and the latest project looks like a winner. 

The shack is outside the community hub. So if you have food 

to donate to others in need that’s the place to go. 

And if you’re struggling to feed the kids, drop by. Just leave 

some for others in the same boat.

Road safety plan approved 


PARKING CHANGES around 

Christchurch Boys’ High School 

will make it easier for motorists 

and cyclists to share the road 

safely. 

A proposal has been approved 

to implement a three-minute 

restricted drop-off and pick-up 

zone along the north side of 

Kahu Rd. 

It will operate 

from 8.30am 

to 9.30am and 

from 2pm to 

4pm every 

school day, but 

outside these 

Sam 

MacDonald 

times parking 

will be unrestricted. 

The moving of 

two bus stops and an extension of 

the no-stopping lines on Girvan 

Rd will also be implemented. 

The decision was approved in a 

combined meeting between the 

Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood 

and the Halswell-Hornby- 

Riccarton Community Boards. 

Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood 

Community Board chairman Sam 

MacDonald said it was a good 

“middle ground” for both the 

school and residents in the area. 

“We ultimately moved with 

option two, which was to keep 

the parking because there was 

enough room on the road to 

have the existing cycleways and 

not limit the parking,” he said. 

“It was a sort of happy medium 

between what the school 

staff wanted and what the residents 

wanted.” 

Following the Christchurch 

earthquakes, CBHS had undergone 

significant redevelopment 

which was estimated to continue 

for the next three to five years. 

The redevelopment caused 

cycle parking facilities to be 

relocated, which resulted in significantly 

greater cycle activity 

on the Kahu Rd frontage. 

The approved changes, costing 

$2000 to implement, would 

make it safer for students to 

cycle around the school. 

“With the developments at the 

school, where the bike sheds are 

now might not be the permanent 

place going forward,” he said. 

“This change helps deal with 

those safety issues now, while 

at the same protecting the 

residents’ amenities as well . . . 

the way we’ve set it up, people 

HAPPY 

MEDIUM: The 

approved 

road 

upgrades will 

make it safer 

for students 

cycling to 

and from 

Christchurch 

Boys’ High 

School. 

will still be able to cycle and get 

to and from, we’ve just balanced 

that with the need to maintain 

car parks.” 

Mr MacDonald also said the 

board went with option two 

so as not to take parking opportunities 

away from weekend 

market-goers. 

“We had to think about the 

Riccarton Bush, in terms of the 

market on Saturday. We just 

can’t afford to keep taking car 

parks out of residential areas.” 

Christchurch Boys’ High 

School declined to comment.

PARK HIT BY RACERS 

Boy racers have targeted the 

carpark at the new Knights 

Stream skate park in Halswell. 

Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton 

Community Board member Ross 

McFarlane said the incident took 

place about ten days ago. The boy 

racers did burnouts on the new 

asphalt. Mr McFarlane wants the 

carpark gates to close at night.

Greater Hornby Residents’

He wants a plaque to acknowledge 

that the park was gifted by Stanley 

Denton as a recreational reserve. 

The board referred the proposal to 

staff for investigation and report 

back to the board.

A new bus shelter will be built

Delwyn Whelan – I agree, 

nice to read some history of the

Hamish Middleton – It’s 

disappearing because the 

Christchurch City Council never 

give anything to the community. 

Took the pool, took the service 

centre, do very little maintenance 

or beautification of the area. If 

the CCC hadn’t closed the 

pool then the area would have 

remained a recreational hub for 

all of Riccarton. No idea why we 

pay rates. 

Mel Eade – I don’t understand 

why they took the pool 

away. I know my kids would have 

loved going there knowing that 

their mum, aunty and uncle used 

to spend most of their summer 

there.

Council moves to ease aquifer fears 


THE CITY council has moved 

to ease fears that a groundwater 

aquifer has been damaged in 

Avonhead. 

The aquifer is about 9.4 to 9.6m 

below ground, according to Environment 

Canterbury. It is within 

the Christchurch Groundwater 

Protection Zone and used for the 

city’s drinking water supply. 

People living and working on 

Hawthornden Rd near the construction 

site say they have seen 

large puddles of water for the past 

month, even during dry weather. 

They asked Waimairi Ward 

city councillor Raf Manji to look 

into the matter. He passed it onto 

compliance workers at the city 

council. 

Last week, city council head 

of regulatory compliance Tracey 

Weston said there were no issues. 

“Compliance officers have confirmed 

that the earthworks that 

have been carried out on the site 

are compliant. 

“[Officers] have included the 

provision of an erosion and 

sediment control plan to council 

prior to works commencing,” she 

said. 

Mechanic Jonathan Wilson 

worked at the construction site 

on August 23 and saw it covered 

in water. “I went in there to do a 

job [to repair a dump truck] for 

one of the contractors doing the 

earthworks. 

“The reason they had broken 

their dump truck was [because] 

it came down to the fact that 

the ground was so wet and they 

were having traction issues,” Mr 

Wilson said. 

When he saw the water, he 

did not think much of it until he 

spoke to his mother Rae Wilson, 

who lives on Hawthornden Rd. 

Mrs Wilson, said her immediate 

thoughts went to the aquifers 

at the site. “I said [to my son] 

it’s always been wet there. But 

you could see the water in dry 

weather, it was sitting in pools. 

“I’d say the aquifer would have 

been damaged considerably with 

the vibrations from the construction,” 

Mrs Wilson said. 

Resident Clive Paris believed 

that the timing of the ponding 

with the earthworks was no 

coincidence. 

“We believe that there is a 

direct correlation between where 

PIPING: Wastewater 

pipes are being 

installed at the 

retirement village 

construction site, 

which residents 

say is causing large 

puddles of water to 

form. 

the works is taking place 

and where the aquifer is.” 

ECan also plan to visit the 

site this week as part of their 

“regular” compliance checks. 

“We believe there is a relatively 

low risk at this site as there is no 

need for works to go near the 

aquifer,” ECan zone manager 

Steve Firth said.

Boy racers target Fendalton Rd 


FENDALTON HAS been 

targeted by late-night boy 

racers. 

Police believe an incident on 

Fendalton Rd on September 8 

was a one-off, but will closely 

monitor the area. 

Canterbury 

road 

policing 

manager Inspector 

Ash 

Tabb said 

that while 

Fendalton 

Jamie Gough 

Rd was not 

usually a hotspot 

for boy 

racers, it was a closely-watched 

issue in the city. 

“Canterbury police have a 

dedicated team which liaises 

with the car enthusiasts group, 

and uses education and 

enforcement intervention to 

change behaviour,” he said. 

“Where there are breaches 

of the law – such as illegally 

noisy vehicles, excessive speed, 

and other types of dangerous 

behaviour – all police officers 

will take action against offenders.” 

Cheryl and Tony, who didn’t 

want their last name published, 

live on Fendalton Rd 

and were regularly kept awake 

on weekend nights due to 

the noise of boy racers on the 

nearby central city avenues, 

including Harper Ave. 

But Cheryl said a group was 

racing up and down Fendalton 

Rd on the Saturday night until 

about 4am. 

“They were using Fendalton 

Rd as a racetrack . . . the noise 

was deafening,” she said. 

“Saturday night, I was just 

about to go out and . . . I don’t 

know what I’d do. Lucky I 

didn’t have a gun.” 

“We don’t have children, but 

the people next door have got 

a baby, and on the other side 

they have little toddlers. When 

my grandchildren come and 

stay the night, it’s really hard 

to get them to sleep,” she said. 

Cheryl said the couple felt 

they had no rights, in spite 

of paying an “exorbitant” 

amount in rates. 

“It’s just a hideous amount 

in rates, and there’s a whole 

lot of restrictions around here 

. . . but then you don’t have 

any rights when it comes to 

crazy people on Fendalton 

Rd.” 

Cheryl wrote a letter to city 

councillor Jamie Gough in a 

bid to find a solution to the 

issue. 

She said she understood 

LOUD: Police 

say they will 

take action 

against boy 

racers if they 

are caught 

breaking the 

law. 

there were no bylaws in place 

to prevent boy racer activities, 

but something needed to be 

done. 

Cr Gough said boy racing 

hadn’t been as “prevalent” in 

Fendalton as other areas of the 

city, but it could become an 

issue if it wasn’t monitored. 

“The nature of this though 

is that it is literally a mobile 

problem and the hot-spots 

change, so we’ll need to watch 

it closely to determine the best 

course of action,” he said. 

“I think we all hope that this 

is just a one-off, but we still 

shouldn’t assume anything or 

be complacent about it.”

Halswell food stall for those in need 



A COUPLE’S goal to provide 

food for those in need has taken 

off. 

Avonhead couple Keri and 

Dave Glassenbury have set up the 

Sharing Shack, in Halswell. 

The shack is a food shelf, where 

people can donate and take food. 

It was built by computer programmer 

Mr Glassenbury, and is 

outside the Halswell Community 

Hub, at the former Halswell Library 

on Halswell Rd. 

They set up the shack in 

Halswell because Mrs Glassenbury 

is a manager at the Halswell 

Community Project, which 

works to connect and support 

people in the suburb. 

In its first week of operation, 

the Sharing Shack has been 

frequently used and is regularly 

filled up and then emptied. 

“People are more often donating 

more than they take away,” 

Mrs Glassenbury said. 

“The whole idea is, if there is 

anybody out there struggling in 

any way, you don’t have to put a 

thing in there, just take the food,” 

she said. 

Mrs Glassenbury’s two-and-ahalf 

years of helping the Halswell 

community have made her passionate 

about the area. 

“It’s a great area and a number 

of times we have talked about 

moving to Halswell . . . I just see 

FRESH FOOD: Halswell Community Project co-ordinator Kate 

Cleverly (left), and Halswell Community Project manager 

Keri Glassenbury stock up the Sharing Shack at Halswell 

Community Hub. 

the whole city as one community 

as well,” she said. 

The shack is mainly intended 

for fruit and vegetables but 

canned and instant meals have 

also been common. 

“If people want to, they can donate 

other food, and that’s great. 

There is always something that 

somebody needs,” she said. 

Many in the community 

will want to help, Mrs 

D.I.Y: Dave Glassenbury 

building the Sharing Shack. 

Glassenbury believed. 

“We dropped it off at 3pm 

on Sunday [September 9] , and 

posted on Facebook. Straight 

away people were like: ‘Oh where 

is it, I want to drop things off’,” 

she said. 

Giving back to the community 

is something Mrs Glassenbury 

has always wanted to do and is 

now encouraging her husband to 

join in more. 

“I’ve always enjoyed working 

with people, I’m a people person. 

Working in the community hub 

. . . it’s an awesome way to meet 

people from all walks of life.” 

For Mr Glassenbury, volunteering 

in the community is a new 

experience. 

“It was Keri’s idea and they [the 

community project] wanted it 

done, and I quite like that sort of 

thing [building work],” he said. 

His first experience was a rewarding 

one. “I thought it would 

be slow to take off but people 

were very quick to get into it,” Mr 

Glassenbury said. 

Now that he has had his first 

taste of working for the community, 

another project is around 

the corner. 

“I am also building a library 

shelf where people can share 

books,” Mr Glassenbury said. 

He didn’t think there would be 

demand for food sharing. 

“It appears there is . . . what 

I also noticed is the amount of 

people that want to give stuff. 

That really surprised me,” he said. 

He considers himself to be a 

handyman around the house, 

although the project is very different 

from his job as a computer 

programmer. 

“I’ve often do jobs around the 

house or building things for the 

kids,” he said. 

The couple hoped their goodwill 

won’t be spoiled by people 

trying to take advantage of the 

situation. 

“If it it does [get stolen], we’ll 

just build another one,” Mrs 

Glassenbury said. 

But it was unlikely to be stolen 

Mr Glassenbury believed. 

“People can surprise you 

sometimes, I think it’ll be fine.” 

Tennis star pens award-winning poem 

•From page 1 

Abby’s award-winning 

poem, titled Newton’s Third 

Law, was picked for first place 

by the WORD competition’s 

judge, poet and author Helen 

Heath. 

“I’m part of this school for 

young writers thing, which I 

go to on Saturday mornings, 

and they mentioned the 

competition, so I decided to 

write something,” she said. 

“I love writing, you can just do 

so much with it, you can write 

whatever you want.” 

Abby said she was the first in 

her family to dabble in creative 

writing, which she became 

interested in after joining a 

writing group as a pupil at 

Selwyn House School. 

“I had this one teacher who 

was amazing, she taught me so 

much. It was the highlight of 

my week going to those creative 

writing sessions.” 

Her father Rhett Mason was a 

former junior Davis Cup player 

and the pair played mixed 

doubles competitions alongside 

each other. 

Abby said she had to juggle 

her passions for writing and 

tennis with her schoolwork and 

social life. 

“I started playing tennis when 

I was about seven, but my dad 

is a really good tennis player so 

he started throwing tennis balls 

at me when I was three or four,” 

she said. 

“Sometimes it’s a bit of a 

struggle to balance everything, I 

don’t know how I manage to fit 

it all in, but I do.” 

And when asked which of 

her passions she might pursue 

as a career, she couldn’t 

decide. 

“I’d really like to continue 

doing both for as long as I can. 

I might change how I think in a 

few years, but for now I want to 

do both.” 

Newton’s Third Law 

When I drove to your house 

you said 

take me somewhere 

you didn’t want to talk about 

your dad 

he wasn’t worth talking about 

everything you did, set him off. 

There was silence, apart from 

the grounding of tyres 

against the dusty road. 

It was hard to see straight, 

in the dark, on the coast, 

with the moon 

distancing itself, 

making the waves drowsy. 

The only light was tiny balls of 

gas in the sky 

and because I took my hand 

off the wheel to hold yours 

I didn’t see the truck 

or the ditch 

or the stars, 

as we flipped.

Brakes on bid to move kart club 

•From page 1 

The board members were 

made aware of the agenda 

change prior to their discussion 

at last Tuesday’s meeting. 

At the beginning of the discussion, 

while councillor Vicki Buck 

was outside, board member Debbie 

Mora supported Mr Mora, 

highlighting his familiarity 

with the Kart Club’s relocation 

process. 

Riccarton 

Ward board 

member Helen 

Broughton 

disagreed at 

first. 

“We can’t 

give you a 

Mike Mora 

mandate to 

speak on behalf 

of the board until we’ve had a 

workshop,” Ms Broughton said. 

But board members Ms 

Broughton, councillor Anne 

Galloway and Ms Mora, came 

to an agreement that after the 

workshop, the board can vote to 

withdraw Mr Mora as their representative 

for the deputation. 

But the workshop had to be 

held before the city council 

meeting on September 27. 

Mr Mora agreed with the 

members. 

Before the agreement was 

confirmed, Cr Buck rejoined the 

meeting. 

She apologised for stepping outside 

and missing the discussion. 

To which Mr Mora replied: 

“Well we’re in a meeting.” 

Cr Buck asked to be brought 

up to speed on the discussion. 

WORK AT the Burnside pump 

station will start this week to 

convert the below ground well 

head to an above ground well 

head. 

A contractor will be on-site to 

carry out set-up work, including 

fencing, signage and sediment 

erosion control. 

The well head conversion will 

take about 55 days and aims to 

ensure the continued supply of 

secure drinking water. 

SPEED BUMP: Members of the Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton 

Community Board will wait to vote on chairman Mike Mora 

making a deputation on behalf of the board. 

After it was explained to her, 

she said Mr Mora should not be 

chosen to deputise on behalf of 

the board prior to a workshop. 

“We have no idea when the 

workshop is or whether any of us 

can get there,” Cr Buck said. 

Mr Mora called for a vote 

on the matter and asked for all 

those in favour to say aye. 

Before anyone could answer, 

Ms Broughton interrupted and 

changed her mind. 

“Hang on. I think Vicki is 

right here, it’s better to have a 

workshop,” she said. 

She then told Mr Mora to 

“leave it.” 

“I was only trying to help,” Mr 

Mora responded. 

The board then chose to wait 

for the workshop before deciding 

if Mr Mora will make a deputation 

on behalf of the members. 

When Western News asked Mr 

Mora if the direction of the meeting 

changed after Cr Buck’s return 

to the meeting, he responded 

by saying: “You’re observations 

are pretty on the mark.” 

Work starts on Burnside pump station 

Following completion, 

there will be no need to temporarily 

chlorinate the water 

at this site when all wells are in 

use. 

The Burnside pump station 

supplies water to about a fifth 

of the homes in Christchurch’s 

north-west zone. It pumps out 

about 1.8 million cubic metres 

of water annually. 

The completion of work on the 

Burnside pump station would 

Cr Buck said the disagreements 

were not about Mr Mora, 

but her wanting to follow a 

proper process. 

Cr Galloway believed board 

members changed their views 

after Cr Buck’s return because 

of her previous experience as 

mayor. 

“Before I give him [Mr Mora] 

the okay to represent me, I want 

to be clear of the issues,” Cr Galloway 

said. 

Cr Galloway said she was “not 

aware” of any divisions within 

the board. 

“In my experience of the 

board, I’m very appreciative of 

Vicki’s experience and understanding 

of situations,” Cr Galloway 

said. 

Last year, Mr Mora and Ms 

Broughton narrowly survived a 

vote to topple them as chairman 

and deputy chairwoman. 

Of the nine members, Natalie 

Bryden, Vicki Buck, Catherine 

Chu and Anne Galloway voted 

to remove Mr Mora and Ms 

Broughton. 

bring the north-west closer to 

being chlorine-free. 

Last week, work finished on 

the new Gardiners pump station 

in Harewood Park, replacing the 

old Harewood pump station. 

The city council also stopped 

chlorinating the Thompsons 

water pump station in late 

August, bringing the total 

number of pump stations across 

the city not being chlorinated to 

nine. 

Young MP sought 


IF YOU’RE aged 16-18 and have 

a passion for politics, give Gerry 

Brownlee a call. 

The Ilam MP is on the hunt for 

a young person to represent the 

electorate at next year’s Youth 

Parliament. 

Mr Brownlee has taken a young 

person under his wing for every 

Youth Parliament since he was 

elected in 1996. 

Youth Parliament is held in 

Wellington every three years, 

with the next taking place in July. 

“It’s an opportunity to impart 

experience of what it’s 

like to be a Member of 

Parliament,” Mr Brownlee 

said. 

“For someone who is 

interested in the general 

constructs of civil society 

and the processes within 

that, it’s a great opportunity.” 

He said he would look for a 

candidate who was “active here in 

our community” and had a passion 

for politics 

“Someone who has got the ability 

to articulate their thoughts, 

someone who clearly thinks 

about things,” he said. 

“And someone who has the

The selected youth MP will 

participate in a programme 

including attending a

on July 16 and 

17. 

Applicants are 

required to submit a 

500-word or less essay 

answering the question

Citycare workers have started clearing weeds from Wairarapa 

Stream after Merivale residents voiced their concerns over 

flooding from the stream. Colin and Valerie Averill, who live on 

Garden Rd, approached the Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood 

Community Board because the stream had been overflowing 

and killing trees on their property. Maintenance work had been 

carried out about twice a year but due to high water flow the 

issue had deteriorated and thorough weed-clearing needed 

to be carried out. Mr Averill said the couple were pleased work 

had begun.

Junior councillors clean up Westlake Park 


BUDDING CITY councillors 

have taken their first step into 

public service. 

Halswell’s junior council, 

currently made up of four year 

5 and year 6 

pupils organised 

a clean-up of 

Westlake Park as 

their first action. 

They are the 

city’s first junior 

council, which 

Anne 

Galloway 

started in June. 

The pupils 

are, Aidanfield 

Christian 

School’s Millie Young, 11 and 

Nevaeh Williams, 11, and 

Oaklands School’s Maddison 

McKenzie, 9, and Thomas White, 

10. 

“We all think that us kids 

should become involved [in 

politics]. 

“Because we are the next 

generation and we should 

help out and prove that us 

kids can make a difference in 

Christchurch,” Millie said. 

The Westlake Park clean-up 

project was first because the 

pupils wanted to focus on 

rubbish-free zones. 

“We also chose Westlake Park 

because it’s in Aidanfield’s zone 

and it’s also close to Oaklands 

School,” Nevaeh said. 

The junior council invited 

neighbours, rest-home residents 

and pupils from other schools in 

Halswell for the clean-up. 

The junior councillors plan to 

put the rubbish to good use. 

“We’re hoping to make a 

SCHOOLS 

sculpture out of the rubbish 

so people can come by and 

remember to not pollute the 

environment,” Millie said. 

The sculpture has not been 

finalised yet but the students

hope to design a wave sculpture 

for the park. 

The four pupils said they hoped 

to join the adult council when 

they grow up. 

Halswell Ward councillor 

Anne Galloway, helped form the 

junior council. 

“The whole idea about the 

junior council is for children to 

involved in civics. 

“Setting up a junior council is a 

way for them to understand 

the democratic processes, how 

the system works,” Cr Galloway 

said. 

Invitations for the Halswell 

junior council went out to 

four local schools in the area, 

Aidanfield Christian, Oaklands, 

Halswell and Seven Oaks schools. 

Cr Galloway hoped Halswell 

and Seven Oaks schools pupils 

join the council in this year.

Pupils impress in 

speech competition 


THREE SCHOOLS in the west 

finished strongly at the Ellesmere 

Speech Competition last week. 

In the year 7 event, Yaldhurst 

Model School’s Jedidiah Immanuel 

finished second and Templeton 

School’s Te Wharekauri 

McGregor came third. 

In the year 8 event, Halswell 

School’s Ameya Raut finished 

second. 

Jedidiah’s speech was titled Is it 

OK to be me anymore? 

“I talked about discrimination 

and judgement and how we 

should not judge others by their 

looks, beliefs and other things 

like that,” the 11-year-old said. 

She said people should not be 

told who they are by others. 

“They should just be allowed 

to be themselves and I want to 

tell people that they are free to be 

themselves,” Jedidiah said. 

Twelve-year-old Te Wharekauri’s 

speech was on The importance 

of speaking Te Reo. 

“I talked about how all people 

should be trying to save te reo 

Maori now, rather than later 

because I have lots of connections 

with te reo Maori and I 

have noticed that the numbers 

of speakers are decreasing,” Te 

Wharekauri said. 

He said preserving the language 

was important to him and 

his whanau. 

“I explained how people can 

help save the language and why 

people should work with others 

to save the language.” 

Ameya spoke on New Zealand 

should be GST-free on fruit and 

vegetables. 

This year’s event saw 15 entrants 

in year 7 and 14 entrants in 

year 8. 

The event was organised by the 

Selwyn Lions Club, and president 

Alison Benefield said the quality 

of the speeches amazed the crowd 

and judges with a wide range of 

topics and confident speakers.

St Thomas’ too good for St Kevin’s 

SPORTS 

• By Jacob Page 

ST THOMAS’ of Canterbury 

College dominated two football 

games to win their annual sports 

exchange with St Kevin’s College, 

in Oamaru on Wednesday. 

St Thomas’ won the exchange 

6-2 to retain the trophy. 

They won the junior football 

12-1 and senior 8-0 and then 

backed that up in the basketball, 

with the senior team winning 

66-53 and the junior side prevailing 

57-52. 

It was a chance for the school’s 

football teams to farewell 

departing year 13 players and 

welcome in younger talent. 

Departing players Treye Butler 

and Fin Claude travelled to 

Oamaru to watch the games. 

Butler scored 111 goals in 94 

appearances for the first XI while 

Claude presented his shirt to year 

8 player Phoenix Coursey, who 

was one of seven players to debut 

for the top team. 

The others were Diego 

Lavin, Angus Dempster, Dylan 

Barbour-Ryan, Jack Robinson, 

Api Rabuka and Memphis 

Vaszilyko. 

The St Thomas’ first XV won 

their game 39-12 but St Kevin’s 

took a nail-biting win in the 

under-15 match 38-37. 

St Thomas’ also won the junior 

debate but lost the senior debate.

O’Neill back to inspire 


WIGRAM RHYTHMIC 

gymnast Ashleigh O’Neill is back 

competing to try and inspire the 

juniors she coaches. 

The Olympia Gymsports competitor 

and coach will compete 

at the national championships 

in Tauranga from October 2 to 

7 after four years away from the 

competition floor. 

The 21-year-old will compete 

for Canterbury in the hoop, ball, 

ribbon and club events and hopes 

to medal in all three. 

But she said her main goal was 

to inspire her own athletes, all 

aged between six and 16. 

“I always enjoyed coaching 

because I’ve been an athlete for 

a long time but I wanted to show 

my girls that I know what they’re 

going through,” she said. 

“I’ve been coaching during my 

time away but being around it so 

much made me miss it so I find 

the motivation to balance both 

training to compete and coaching. 

“I train by myself in the morning 

then do my work and coaching 

in the afternoon and I try to 

get to the gym five days a week 

as well. 

“It all works out about 80 percent 

of the time,” she said. 

O’Neill has represented New 

Zealand multiple times in 

the Pacific Rim Gymnastics 

Championships, was the 

national rope champion and was

undefeated in the Australian 

national championships. 

She currently holds South 

Island, Otago and North Shore 

titles, which she won since returning 

to competition in July. 

O’Neill took up the sport when 

she was seven-years-old and her 

local swimming pool was being 

renovated.

“We were at King’s Swim 

School and they had renovations 

being done so Mum enrolled me 

at Olympia and I just took to it.” 

O’Neill said she wanted to 

encourage more gymnasts to 

stay in the sport as coaches and 

she hoped to set an example that 

other young girls could follow 

into the future.

Table tennis success 


BURNSIDE HIGH School is 

quickly becoming a national 

force in table tennis. 

Their boys and girls teams 

defended their respective New 

Zealand secondary schools titles 

in Hamilton last week. 

The students also won a number 

of age group titles in only the 

second year the school had sent a 

team to the tournament. 

Avon Liu won the girls 

under-19 title and Jiayi Zhou won 

the under-15 girls title. 

Alex Zhou finished earned 

a silver in the under-19 boys 

category, Sang-Yong Park was 

runner-up in the under-19 

boys competition while Aarya 

Advilkar won a bronze in the 

under-15 girls. Jiayi, Alex and 

Sang-Yong are all part of the New 

Zealand age-group system. 

Samuel Li and Zac McKellar 

were part of the victorious boys 

team. Teacher in charge of table 

tennis, Tracy Taylor said with 

no competition in the girls team 

grade, they entered the open boys 

grade and finished third. 

“The only game our girls lost 

was to our own boys team,” she 

said. Taylor said she was thrilled 

the team was able to defend their 

titles and find a lot of individual 

success. 

“There were a lot of Auckland 

teams up there who had never 

seen us play and I think we were 

able to catch them by surprise.”

As she explains, it is normal to breathe fast

about that here, due to the earthquakes. 

Normally, once the danger is gone, our 

breathing should restore itself within a 

couple of days. We would then be using the 

diaphragm for our normal nonstressed 

breathing. We have been having a hard 

time restoring our breathing pattern

aftershock came rolling in. Even though the

With fast upper chest breathing, sighing 

and yawning, the resulting disturbance 

of our oxygen and carbon dioxide levels 

can give us the feeling we are not able to 

control our own body. One moment you 

are feeling fine, next moment your chest 

feels tight, you feel out of breath, your 

heart beats erratically and you may even 

experience dizziness and/or tingling. 

Very scary if you do not understand what 

is happening. No wonder this causes 

anxiety. Not being the boss over our own 

body makes us anxious, anxiety feeds the 

faulty breathing pattern, and so it goes on.

been clinically found to assist in this. 

The implications for stroke recovery are 

obvious, but researchers also know many 

of us suffer from undetected “microstrokes” 

that over a period of time slowly 

reduce our cognitive function. TEBONIN 

is prescribed worldwide as a natural 

supportive agent for a healthy brain and 

cognitive function. It supports healthy 

mental performance, concentration, focus, 

alertness, motor function and to help 

with many conditions including tinnitus 

(ringing and noise in the ears), vertigo 

and normal balance. TEBONIN improves 

micro-circulation and helps the blood 

flow reach those critical places it needs to 

get. It is a potent anti-oxidant and makes 

the red blood cells more pliable and 

capillary walls more flexible. 

TEBONIN is one of the most widely 

studied and researched herbal products in 

the world and is the only Ginkgo biloba 

extract manufactured via a patented 

multi-step extraction process. Each small 

tablet contains a highly concentrated 

50:1 extract to give you a therapeutic 

clinical dose without having to take a large 

amount of the herb. Of 25 Gingko biloba 

products on the market, and tested by a 

major medical journal, only TEBONIN 

passed all five of the test requirements. 

Ten brands didn’t meet any requirements 

and the rest didn’t pass more than three 

out of five requirements. TEBONIN is 

the only Gingko biloba extract shown 

to activated all areas of the brain and is 

considered the gold standard in Gingko. 

TEBONIN has been trusted by millions 

of consumers worldwide for over 30 

years with more than 8,000,000 tablets 

consumed each day. 

TEBONIN and further information 

is available from the Natural Health 

Advisers at Marshall’s Health & Natural 

Therapy in New Brighton. PH: 388-5757.

Auction: Thursday, 27 September 2018 Unless Sold Prior 

5 bedrooms | 3 bathrooms | 3 toilets | 3 living rooms | 2 dining rooms | 1 office/study | 3 car-garage | 2 off-street parks | Listing # PI54538 

This stunning luxury home is a beautifully 

private paradise with spectacular views of the 

Port Hills, Canterbury Plains and Southern 

Alps. Whether you’re lounging in the pool 

or sipping a drink on the magnificent deck 

while admiring the spectacular sunsets 

and the changing skies, this home has it all. 

Situated in a dramatic sweeping landscape of 

hills and wide-open vistas, with easy access to 

Kennedys Bush Track and Halswell Quarry 

Park, savour the tranquillity of semi-rural 

living in a lovely hill suburb close to amenities 

and only 15 minutes from the CBD. 

The architecture of this stunning building 

is accentuated with natural materials - stone, 

wood and water - perfectly at home in this 

unique environment. Stone feature walls 

are complemented by extensive glazing to 

capture sun, light and superb views. A series 

of indoor and outdoor living spaces pivot 

from the central lobby for exceptional flow 

- indoors and out - and seamless relaxing 

or entertaining. A sleek and well-appointed 

kitchen overlooks open-plan casual living, 

where a gas fire warms cooler evenings 

and sliders open to a beautifully sheltered 

deck. A separate second living space offers 

an elegant sitting area (with its own gas 

fire) and a dining area that seems to float 

above the treetops. A palatial master suite 

downstairs offers exceptional privacy and 

direct access to the pool area, and is superbly 

equipped with WIR, en suite and spacious 

adjoining office/library. Four more bedrooms 

(including a guest bedroom with en suite), a 

family bathroom, separate laundry and triple 

internal-access garage ensure this home is as 

functional as it is breath-taking. 

Outside, the 1,489 sqm grounds are 

spectacularly landscaped to create a 

completely private resort-style space for 

relaxing and entertaining, complete with 

inground pool, spa and children’s playground. 

Planted in natives for easy maintenance 

(perfect for a lock-up-and-leave lifestyle), 

the garden is sheltered from easterly winds 

for comfortable outdoor living. This is your 

chance to secure your very own private 

sanctuary from hectic modern living!

with the intention to provide a local 

club with a strong community focus. 

Sixty years on and the club continues 

with this objective providing support 

for local schools and groups. 

Club and affiliate members gain 

access to the many great facilities on 

offer. There's a MEMBER'S BAR with 

discounted bar prices, bistro (open 

from 5-8pm Thursday, Friday, 

Saturday), bar menu, TAB, gaming 

machines, big screen SKY sport, pool 

tables; SPORTING SECTIONS that 

compete locally and nationally; LIVE 

ENTERTAINMENT; and to get you 

home safe and sound... the Club 

Shuttle (operates Thursday, Friday and 

Saturday evenings). 

Anyone can become a member of 

the SAS Club and potential new 

members are welcome to call in and 

check out the great facilities and 

advantages of joining your local club.
