Work starts on multi-million<br />
dollar Parklands sports hall<br />
WORK ON the second stage of<br />
a new multi-use sports hall in<br />
Parklands is under way.<br />
City councillor Phil Mauger<br />
turned the first sod at the<br />
Pūkeko Centre this week<br />
- a community sports and<br />
recreation hub currently under<br />
development on Chadbury St.<br />
The four-stage development<br />
is being undertaken as a joint<br />
venture between the Parklands<br />
Bowling Club and Parklands<br />
Junior Rugby Club.<br />
Said Jane Mahoney, of<br />
the Pūkeko Centre: “When<br />
complete, the Pūkeko Centre<br />
will not only provide clubrooms<br />
for the founding clubs, but will<br />
serve as a multi-use sports and<br />
recreation facility for the whole<br />
community, and a home base<br />
for other grassroots clubs and<br />
groups in the wider Parklands<br />
area.”<br />
Stage one - the clubrooms and<br />
pavilion - was completed and<br />
opened in December 2017 at a<br />
cost of about $1.3 million.<br />
Stage two involves the<br />
construction of a full-sized,<br />
multi-use sports hall, a<br />
breezeway connecting the two<br />
buildings and a major upgrade<br />
of the car park area.<br />
The second stage has an<br />
estimated cost of $2 million,<br />
of which $450,000 has already<br />
been raised through grants from<br />
the city council’s Capital Endowment<br />
Fund ($200,000) and<br />
from the New Zealand Lottery<br />
NEW BEGINNINGS: City councillor Phil Mauger, along<br />
with Braxton Winder and Leighton Parry, of the Parklands<br />
Rugby Club, turn the first sod at the new Pūkeko Centre.<br />
Grants Board ($250,000). There<br />
was already a demand for the<br />
sports hall, which will be used<br />
by people of all ages and abilities<br />
- including three local primary<br />
schools, basketball, a fencing<br />
club, karate groups, indoor<br />
bowls and many more.<br />
It will also become home to<br />
Parafed Canterbury, which has<br />
signed an agreement to hire<br />
office space in the stage two<br />
facility, and will run all of its<br />
programmes from there.<br />
The Pūkeko Centre Project<br />
Committee is now actively<br />
seeking more funding to<br />
complete the project from<br />
other funding providers,<br />
philanthropic organisations and<br />
local businesses.<br />
“The aim of the Pūkeko<br />
Centre is to welcome and<br />
support a connected, healthy<br />
and vibrant community by<br />
enabling and facilitating a range<br />
of activities for people of all ages<br />
and all abilities,” said Mahoney.<br />

Gautam’s determination pays off<br />
• By Bea Gooding<br />
AFTER MIGRATING from a<br />
small town in India to building<br />
a life in Christchurch for the last<br />
17 years, Sunita Gautam believes<br />
it’s her time to give back.<br />
A determination to serve<br />
her community has paid off,<br />
as she has now been elected to<br />
represent the Central Ward in<br />
the Linwood-Central-Heathcote<br />
Community Board.<br />
Last week’s by-election results<br />
saw the Edgeware resident<br />
receiving 958 votes for the<br />
seat, over candidates Celeste<br />
Donovan, Clive Antony, Paul<br />
Lonsdale, Wayne Hawker,<br />
Faimeh Burke and John Stringer.<br />
Gautam is looking forward to<br />
the journey ahead and is taking<br />
over the position after the death<br />
of long-serving community<br />
board member and former city<br />
councillor Sally Buck.<br />
“I’m excited, this is just the<br />
beginning. I’m really proud of<br />
the Central Ward,” she said.<br />
“I really want to thank the<br />
people of central Christchurch<br />
for seeing beyond my skin<br />
colour. I’m grateful for the opportunity<br />
and I will not let them<br />
down.”<br />
Her vision for the ward includes<br />
making it a place where<br />

Central Ward representative of the Linwood-Central-Heathcote Community<br />
Board.<br />

everyone felt safe, valued and<br />
had a sense of belonging.<br />
“We also need to sort out<br />
parking for residents, unhosted<br />
home-share accommodation and<br />
footpaths and roads.”<br />
A major focus was on encouraging<br />
more civic participation in<br />
her ward as she identified a lack<br />
of engagement and education on<br />
what a community board can do<br />
for residents.<br />
The recent by-election saw a<br />
23.46 per cent voter turnout, and<br />
33.43 per cent at the local elections<br />
last year.<br />
“Engagement – it’s what is<br />
lacking and it’s a frustration.<br />
I want to make sure the community<br />
understands the process<br />
as people have no idea what the<br />
structure is,” she said.<br />
“Like if people want to move<br />
a tree on their street, you need<br />
to go through the community<br />
board. Most of the time the<br />
process isn’t clear to the public.”<br />
She also wanted to prioritise<br />
taking steps to ensure Linwood<br />
Village gets a revamp and becomes<br />
a safer place to be in.<br />
Gautam moved from Shaktinagar<br />
(UP) – a small Indian town<br />
700km north-west of Kolkata<br />
– to Christchurch nearly two<br />
decades ago after an arranged<br />
marriage to join her husband,<br />
Sunil Ranjan, in the city.<br />
In that time she has worked as<br />
a business mentor, a justice of the<br />
peace, a marriage celebrant, and<br />
a business and management lecturer<br />
at Canterbury University.<br />
She will also be finishing her<br />
PhD later this year in immigrant<br />
entrepreneurship at UC.<br />
Gautam’s experience in the<br />
migrant and wider community<br />
and a passion for people was<br />
what drew her to the Central<br />
Ward role.<br />
“The council is doing great, but<br />
I wanted to be at the table where<br />
decisions are made,” she said.<br />
“I’m not a complainer, I’m a<br />
person who looks for solutions<br />
and I was getting frustrated that<br />
things weren’t getting done.”<br />

Heritage areas to derelict properties<br />
KIA ORA koutou.<br />
September was a big month for<br />
the Waikura/Linwood-Central-<br />
Heathcote Community Board.<br />
Now we are back in level 1 we<br />
are looking forward to easily<br />
welcoming more of you to our<br />
board meetings.<br />
While we commemorated 10<br />
years since our first September 4<br />
earthquake, we also said goodbye<br />
to our dear friend and colleague<br />
Sally Buck.<br />
Sally was a staunch advocate<br />
for the communities she represented<br />
and worked tirelessly<br />
behind the scenes to make true<br />
positive change in Ōtautahi. I<br />
would like us to acknowledge<br />
the inroads she made for our city<br />
especially in the environmental<br />
sector.<br />
The board has now started the<br />
process of looking at derelict<br />
properties on the east side of<br />
Christchurch.<br />
We are seeing massive issues<br />
with many properties that have<br />
been left by owners for many<br />
different reasons. These properties<br />
lower community well-being<br />
and are causing health and safety<br />
concerns for so many.<br />
We are hoping to create a<br />
plan around locating all properties<br />
that are in our ward area<br />
then work with owners, city<br />
council and direct communities<br />
to come to a conclusion<br />
From the board<br />
Alexandra Davids, chair<br />
Waikura/Linwood-Central-Heathcote Community Board<br />
that finally will see antisocial<br />
behaviours, litter, illegal dumping,<br />
health, safety and fire risks<br />
addressed.<br />
We are also advocating for<br />
Heritage Parks in the ward area<br />
for the community to use to their<br />
appropriate and full capacity.<br />
We, unfortunately, are seeing<br />
our Heritage Parks with so many<br />
restrictions around them that<br />
they are not able to cater to their<br />
communities needs.<br />
Avebury House gardens is an<br />
example of how we could be utilising<br />
a beautiful outdoor area for<br />
NEEDS: The gardens at Avebury House could<br />
be used for the greater good of the community.<br />
The Ferry Rd and Woolston Village upgrades are<br />
still under way, an artist’s impression shows how<br />
the village will look when work has finished.<br />
the greater good and well-being<br />
of the wider community.<br />
The Ferry Rd and Woolston<br />
Village upgrades are still under<br />
way. We want to thank you all<br />
for your patience and support of<br />
the businesses at this time.<br />
We know it’s a frustrating time<br />
for many but thank you all for<br />
continuing to shop local.<br />

Ready-to-eat meals wholesome and convenient<br />
PASSIONATE: Northwood New World’s in-store chef Jeremy<br />
loves creating popular Kiwi dishes.<br />
RECOGNISING THAT people<br />
lead much busier lives these<br />
days, the team at New World<br />
Northwood are stepping in to<br />
help by providing two different<br />
ready-to-eat meal options<br />
designed to not only save their<br />
customers time and effort, but<br />
also offer them a wholesome, delicious<br />
alternative to takeaways.<br />
The hot dinner box is a firm<br />
favourite, freshly cooked every<br />
day by in-store chef Jeremy, who<br />
loves to create popular Kiwi<br />
dishes for customers to enjoy.<br />
There are two meal choices available<br />
Tuesday to Saturday, while<br />
on Mondays there is always a<br />
flavoursome curry on offer and,<br />
of course, a mouth-watering<br />
roast on Sundays.<br />
The hot dinner box is served<br />
daily from the bain-marie in<br />
the foyer from 4.30pm and runs<br />
until 7pm unless sold out prior.<br />
They are great value for money<br />
and customers can purchase<br />
these generous-sized meals while<br />
they are in store or order online<br />
at nwfoodtogo.co.nz for a quick<br />
and easy ‘click and collect’ option.<br />
Mealeze is also a very popular<br />
choice with customers, made<br />
fresh to order for collection<br />
from the store after 1pm on<br />
Wednesdays and Fridays. Tasty<br />
and nutritious, these wholesome<br />
QUICK AND EASY: One of New World Northwood’s hot<br />
dinner boxes which can be ordered online and collected<br />
in store.<br />
meals are ideal for anyone<br />
who is time-poor, cooking for<br />
one, recovering from illness or<br />
perhaps just finding it difficult<br />
to cook for themselves every<br />
night.<br />
They are also a great option for<br />
elderly customers, who love the<br />
old favourites such as lamb’s fry<br />
and bacon.<br />
Served in microwavable trays,<br />
there are four choices every<br />
week, always including a vegetarian<br />
meal and a roast option. And,<br />
because the meals are made fresh<br />
to order by the in-store chef,<br />
they can be kept in the fridge for<br />
eating over the next few days, or<br />
frozen for future use.<br />
All hot dinner box and<br />
mealeze meals include fresh<br />
seasonal vegetables or salad, and<br />
a potato or rice accompaniment.<br />
As store owner Kathy Frampton<br />
says, everyone wants to stay<br />

Linwood charities benefit from uni fundraiser<br />
MORE THAN 1000 packs of<br />
sanitary products have been<br />
donated to two charities in<br />
Linwood who support victims of<br />
violence and sexual harm.<br />
Canterbury University<br />
students are fighting the<br />
country’s period poverty crisis<br />
by donating sanitary products<br />
to Te Puna Oranga and Aviva<br />
Families, raising $1000 in the<br />
process.<br />
In the first week of fundraising,<br />
the students have collected<br />
more than 1000 packs of sanitary<br />
products, which have been<br />
donated to the Linwood-based<br />
charities.<br />
Students Romy Gellen, Serena<br />
Cooper, Caitlin Baker, Olivia<br />
Dobbs and Charlotte Hawkins<br />
have been inspired by their<br />
media and social change course<br />
project.<br />
As part of the project, the<br />
students have analysed a New<br />
Zealand-made short film from<br />
Stuff’s Someday Stories series<br />
named Super Special.<br />
“When we saw the film about<br />
period poverty right here in<br />
Aotearoa, we were upset to<br />
find it was a reality for so many<br />
young people,” said Gellen.<br />
“The group project made us<br />
really passionate and drove us to<br />
actually do something to combat<br />
the issue.”<br />
Baker said they have chosen Te<br />
Puna Oranga and Aviva Families<br />
because they want to support<br />
local organisations.<br />
A 2019 study showed that<br />
“12.5 per cent of students who<br />
had had their first period<br />
missed out on menstrual items<br />
due to cost, and that 7.5 per<br />
cent had missed school because<br />
they couldn’t access menstrual<br />
products.”<br />
In some lower socio-economic<br />
areas, period poverty was as high<br />
as 20 per cent, she said.<br />
Course lecturer Dr Maja<br />

Romy Gellen,<br />
Olivia Dobbs,<br />
Charlotte<br />
Hawkins,<br />
Caitlin Baker<br />
and Serena<br />
Cooper have<br />
launched a<br />
fundraising<br />
initiative to<br />
combat period<br />
poverty in New<br />
Zealand.<br />
Zonjić said period poverty is<br />
a fact of life for many people<br />
in Aotearoa New Zealand and<br />
is compounded by the social<br />
stigma surrounding menstruation.<br />
“To see my students get<br />
inspired by their final group project<br />
to tackle this critical issue<br />
and start such an important initiative<br />
is incredibly humbling,”<br />
she said.<br />
“I am very proud of them and<br />
I hope their actions encourage<br />
others to positively contribute to<br />
their communities.”<br />

PEGASUS POST<br />
Every Day is Open Day<br />
Once again, the New Zealand educational curriculum is<br />
in the firing line – and it is perhaps hard to argue that it<br />
shouldn’t be.* On the all-important international stage, the<br />
latest data from PISA, the Programme for International<br />
Student Assessment, indicates our Kiwi kids are on the<br />
slide. The downward trend in results over the last decade<br />
shows a lost equivalent of three to six terms of schooling in<br />
the key subjects of Reading, Maths and Science.<br />
This is despite a 32% increase in per-child spending since<br />
2001 and, in Christchurch at least, the construction of<br />
purpose-built modern learning environments deliberately<br />
designed to foster the national curriculum’s child-centred<br />
orthodoxy.<br />
Of course, every child should be at the heart of their own<br />
learning. How could they now be! But let’s not throw the<br />
baby out with the bathwater. A child’s education should be<br />
a balance of subject knowledge; essential skills; teaching<br />
programmes developed to suit their demonstrated<br />
knowledge, understanding and progress; and assessment<br />
that offers you, your child and their teachers, honesty and<br />
evidence of this progress.<br />
All parents, teachers and coaches know that children learn<br />
best when they are interested in what they are learning.<br />
Making subject knowledge and skills<br />
interesting is the ongoing and exciting<br />
challenge for all of us who educate and<br />
motivate our children.<br />
Located in the heart of our city, St<br />
Michael’s has been educating and<br />
nurturing the children of Christchurch<br />
for 169 years. For our young pupils<br />
have limitless potential to lead exciting<br />
and generous lives, and we have the<br />
responsibility to educate and inspire<br />
them, to encourage every child to flourish<br />
in mind, body and spirit.<br />
St Michael’s is a prep school for girls and<br />
boys in Years 1-8. ‘Prep’ as in preparation<br />
for secondary school, a foundation for a<br />
fine life. For at the heart of St Michael’s<br />
are the essential values of Christian faith<br />
and good citizenship: respect, integrity, community, faith,<br />
hope and love.<br />
An independent school education at the primary level is<br />
a great gift. Our classes are small, with year-groups of 20<br />
pupils, ensuring your child is an individual, well known by<br />
staff and fellow pupils alike.<br />
Traditional foundations in English and Maths are<br />
assured. This academic rigour then underpins our wider<br />
curriculums in History, Geography, Science and Spanish.<br />
IT literacy is taught, not assumed, and computer use is<br />
measured. We like teaching and talking to our pupils!<br />
A prep education offers balance. St Michael’s cultural<br />
and sports’ programmes further develop your child’s<br />
foundation, as creativity and problem-solving come in<br />
many forms. Specialist art and music classes are enjoyed<br />
weekly. We have three choirs, and most pupils participate<br />
in instrumental or speech & drama lessons with our ten<br />
itinerant staff.<br />
Nestled on the banks of the Avon, opposite the Riverside<br />
Farmers’ Market, our extended campus is spectacular: the<br />
Art Gallery, Museum, Tūranga – the<br />
central library, and Hagley Park are<br />
just minutes away.<br />
Many of our parents now work in<br />
the thriving city centre or Lincoln<br />
and Riccarton Road hubs, but they<br />
live city-wide. They comment on the<br />
comfort of knowing their children are<br />
in school nearby and the benefits of<br />
popping over for an hour to catch a<br />
performance or watch a race. With the<br />
central exchange only a block away,<br />
senior children arrive by bus from all<br />
corners of the city.<br />
You and your child are warmly<br />
welcome to discover our purposeful,<br />
wholehearted and inclusive prep<br />
school. Our next Open Day is<br />
coming up, on Tuesday 3 November. Pop in during<br />
the day between 8.30am – 4.00pm for a tour, and to<br />
book an appointment on the day with the principal,<br />
