Concerns with police team expansion •From page 1 Police team leader Sergeant Stephen Jones said that his aim was to help the community to bring about changes in their area. He believed that, with the involvement of the community, the team could achieve the same results over the much larger area. “The approaches will be similar, they won’t be the same. But we are confident that we can still achieve the same results.” Central Riccarton Residents’ Association chairman Martin Taylor said he was looking forward to a more obvious police presence in the area. He was concerned about high numbers of burglaries in the area, social issues around bars and liquor
ban enforcement, and dumping of rubbish in the area. He said that a high percentage of residents in the area rented rather than owning their homes, which contributed to problems. Deans Ave Precinct Society chairwoman Claire Mulcock said that there were problems with noise, littered bottles and people feeling scared while walking at night in the area. “The liquor ban has helped, but there are problems with policing the walkway especially, where people there aren’t visible from the street.” She hoped that the policing team move would make a difference in the area.
Consultation opened this month on the city council Draft Psychoactive Products Retail Locations Policy, which deals with where legal high shops are allowed to open. Plans for the policy were announced in April, but were delayed until after national policies on psychoactive substances went through Parliament in May. Consultation will close on August 4, with the policy expected to be put in place in October.

Are you on the right road? Choosing which road to take in Christchurch can be challenging at times. Of the 2649km of road network in Christchurch 541km was affected by road works in June – the equivalent of 20 percent.
In order to help keep Christchurch moving, The Christchurch Transport Operations Centre (CTOC) is constantly assessing the transport network and how it is coping. “The transport network is complex with many competing demands and users, hence roads have different priorities,” says CTOC Manager, Ryan Cooney. Recent monitoring on several key routes show there are days where congestion decreases or increases simultaneously on multiple routes. This occurs as road users choose different routes to reach the same destination each day. “Drivers will often change their route because they’ve had advanced warning of heavy traffic. Alternatively, they have come across an area of congestion and choose another route, or perhaps in the days prior they encountered delays,” Mr Cooney says. Mr Cooney says providing information to help encourage road users to use those roads that will give them the best travelling experience is one of CTOC’s aims. “Certain roads around the city are designed for increased traffic volumes. The layout of the road will be designed to cope with more traffic and features such as traffic signal operation will be optimised to keep traffic moving.”
One example of where road users may think they are choosing the quickest route but will in fact get delayed is Victoria Street in the city,” Mr Cooney says. “Victoria Street is often used as a cut-through to Bealey Ave as road users think it is quicker. However, Montreal Street traffic signals are optimised to cater for increased volumes of traffic allowing quicker access to Bealey Ave. We encourage the use of Victoria Street only if you are wishing to access businesses in the area.” Mr Cooney says other recommended roads to use around the city include: • Blenheim Road instead of Riccarton Road • Main North Road instead of Marshland Road • The four avenues, (Moorhouse, Bealey, Fitzgerald, Deans) if travelling from one side of the city to the other • Montreal Street instead of Victoria Street “We are constantly reviewing the network and working to keep it flowing efficiently and safely for all road users, but we do need people to assist us by using these suggested routes wherever possible. We let the radio stations know when we have hot-spots for people to be aware of and we are also now providing real-time
information through our twitter feed @TransportChch,” Mr Cooney says. “We are also improving our ability to monitor journey time through increased sensors around the city and this will help us provide better information to the public about potential delays to their journey.” Mr Cooney says the CTOC is keen to help road users understand the challenges and the work that is being undertaken to keep the transport network moving and welcomes any queries or feedback. You can contact CTOC by emailing tfc@tfc.govt.nz or phone 941 8839 between 6.30am – 6pm.

Work begins on new hub BY GABRIELLE STUART
Construction is due to begin today on a new $22.9 million Halswell community hub. Built on the site of the Halswell Aquatic Centre, the centre will combine a new library and community meeting rooms with the existing pools and hydroslides. About 50 residents gathered on the site to watch the first sod turned by Deputy Mayor Vicki Buck on Friday. The new centre is expected to open in November 2015. Halswell residents have campaigned for more than a decade for new library and community facilities. Funding for the project was set aside in 2009 and work on the site began the same year, but was put on hold after the earthquakes. Halswell Residents’ Association chairman Ron Fensom said the rapid growth of subdivisions in the area since the earthquakes increased the need for bigger facilities. He said that church and community halls in the area were in high demand, while the library, which was built in 1968, was too small to cater for visitor numbers.

More than 67,000 visits were made to the Halswell Library last year, and more than 41,000 visits were recorded from January to June this year. The hub will include a large conference space for up to 300 people, an outdoor area for
markets or performances, space for dance and fitness classes, an indoor play area for young children and a cafe, as well as the library and pool facilities. City council Facilities and Infrastructure Rebuild director David Adamson said that the

centre would be not only the first major city council facility for Halswell, but the first of its kind in Christchurch. “It’s a bit of a one-stop-shop, and this is the approach that our conversations with the community have told us people want. Hubs like this aren’t just convenient for local residents – they also mean efficiency and savings on the council’s part.” Significant community consultation has already been held, and residents are still able to submit their ideas for services they’d like to see available at the new facility. Ideas can be emailed to halswellcommunityfacility@ccc. govt.nz or left in the drop-box at the Halswell Library. Mr Fensom said that residents had raised several concerns about the initial designs of the facility, but they had been addressed in the final plans. Some trees near the pool will be removed to make space for the facility and its car park, but the city council plans to plant 122 trees around the new building to replace them. The Halswell Aquatic Centre main pool and hydroslides will stay open this summer, with temporary changing rooms, toilets, barbecue and staff facilities.

CLOAK OF HONOUR: Hornby High School principal Richard Edmundson wearing the korowai he was given to recognise his work at the school, with head students Logan Collings and Ailine Kei, and board of trustees chairwoman Kaye Banks.
School principal honoured
Hornby High School principal Richard Edmundson was presented with a korowai, a hand-woven Maori cloak, to commemorate his work at the school. The cloak was decorated with feathers to represent every student at the school, and designs representing the staff of the school and Mr Edmundson’s family. Pat Harding, a teacher aide at the school organised his iwi, Ngati Koata, to weave the cloak as a mark of respect from the staff and the students. Deputy principal Jon Rogers said that Mr Edmundson was a leader who had respect for everybody. He said that after the February 2011 earthquake Mr Edmundson called every person on the staff list, more than 50 people, to find out how they were and if there were any ways that he could help them. The cloak was presented to Mr Edmundson at the school assembly.

Big responsibility in post-quake Liz McClure was appointed the area board president for Plunket on February 1, 2011. Twenty days later, the earthquake struck Canterbury and Liz had to learn the ropes in a baptism of fire. She has received the Minister of Health’s award for a community or NGO health service volunteer, which recognises her hard work. She speaks to Haley Jones Hi Liz. Can you tell me about what your job involves? I’m in charge of the Canterbury area, which runs from Kaikoura to Rakaia, and Arthurs Pass to Banks Peninsula. We don’t have exact figures, but I’m estimating we have between 500 to 600 volunteers. I now lead a board of six members, the volunteers, and we’re also in charge of the governance of our area. And our buildings. We have 48 Plunket clinics and I look after them and make sure they’re all above board and code. It’s a big job. Sounds like a big responsibility. What was it like immediately following the earthquakes? I had actually only been in the new position with Plunket for 20 days before the earthquakes hit. I’d only been appointed on the Plunket Council on February 1. It was really a baptism of fire. I was working really hard at getting a brief of what I was doing, and then bang! We had the quakes. Then it was full steam ahead – we were looking at the needs of the
community and volunteers and the families. I lead all the postearthquake recovery work, and sorted out insurance claims, and looking at the building codes. We closed some buildings down. I was working through all of that sort of stuff. We also lost our area office, so had to look for a new area office. We’re nearly there with that side of things. We have come a really long way, but it’s important to stop and look back at what we’ve accomplished since then. What were some of the challenges you faced in your role after the earthquakes? It was really working through the safety of our buildings, volunteers and communities. Communication is always a challenge. It was about trying to ensure we had the right communication going out, with the right reports coming back in to make the right strategic decisions. And finding our families, too. Quite a few of our families had moved around after the earthquakes, so it was about mak-
ing sure we had records of them – making sure no one was left without our service. Also, making sure our volunteers were safe, without putting an added burden and stress on them. Tell me about some of the highlights. I’ve been volunteering at Plunket since 2002, and I’m really lucky to have met such wonderful people on my journey. I’m constantly amazed at the wonderful things people do in our community. They come up with new initiatives. I’ve made life-long friendships along the way, and I’m continually amazed at the ideas that come out of the woodwork that make sure our babies and families are looked after and supported. Can you tell me a little bit about your background? I was born and bred in Christchurch. I have three sons, Jacob, 11, IN CHARGE: Liz McClure leads hundreds of volunteers attending the needs Jorge, 9, and I have Quinn, 4. I’m a of communities and families.

care and support invited to parent education, and I needed to go to my first session without a baby, which was hard. But I still have friends who I met there that I see today. I met one lady, and we’ve gone on and done volunteer work together. We catch up for wines quite often. But it hasn’t all been love and a bed of roses. We’ve gone through struggles with funding. We’ve kept focus and got there in the end. Can you tell me a little more about your family? Jacob is very into electronics. My middle child, Jorge, enjoys Lego, but he’s is not averse to target practice and shooting! Quinn is a typical four-year-old and is interested in everything. And I’m married to my husband, Allan – that’s coming up 13 years. I bet they all keep you busy. What keeps you inspired in your role? Probably just the great team that I’ve got backing me and the dedicated volunteers that continually strive for excellence. To be able to give our families the best start is wonderful. What’s the most rewarding part of your job? There’s so many things. The biggest reward is seeing our organisation go from strength to strength. And then there are things like this award – I’m really honoured to be nominated, and then to be selected and then
HARD WORK RECOGNISED: Liz McClure with two of her sons, Jacob (left), and Jorge, her husband Allan, and Associate Health Minister Jo Goodhew.
At the end of the day, it’s nice to stay strong through the challenges we’ve gone through. And it’s also nice to make luxury things seem affordable, so people don’t feel self-indulgent if they pop off for a facial. As long as it’s affordable and relaxing – that’s important. How did you come to work at Plunket? Before Plunket, I was working as a beauty therapist down in Dunedin. We came home in 2002 in July and had our oldest. We had a large number of weeks in intensive care, because our oldest had a stroke at birth.
We had a flyer dropped off from Plunket in the letter box, and the lady who dropped it off lived four doors down from us. They were after someone to organise their newsletter, and because I wasn’t working at the time, I rang her. We struck up a friendship and the rest is history. What was the experience like with Plunket, being a mum yourself? We were first-time parents, we had no idea what was going on. A nurse came and visited me even though I didn’t have a baby at home. It was such a caring and lovely service. Then I was

awarded was wonderful. Congratulations. Can you tell me a little more about it? I felt very, very honoured. I know that there’s some amazing people out in our communities. I was speaking to some of the judges about the sheer amount of nominations that had come through. I felt very humble. It’s lovely to be recognised. But it’s a testament to our team and the wonderful people who are behind me and backing me. What else do you hope to achieve in your position? Well, we are just finishing a purpose-build pre-school in Banks Peninsula, and we have a new building project for an area office. I guess to set up Canterbury Plunket to continue the great work we’ve always done in sustainability and to honour the legacy of our past, present and future volunteers. And finally, what are your thoughts on Christchurch and the future of the city? I think we’ve been given a very rare opportunity to rebuild our city, and we shouldn’t waste it. We should be looking at sustainability, and looking globally for strengths that can make it as good as it can. I saw a quote the other day which I really liked. It said: “It takes more than buildings to make a great city”, and I really liked that. I think Christchurch is full of great people.

House price boom Cut Loose Hair Design draws criticism BY MAX TOWLE
CHANGE AT THE TOP: Outgoing Hornby Rotary Club president Craig Mason handed the role on to new president Heather Walkinshaw.
New head for Rotary
Sockburn School principal Heather Walkinshaw took on a new role in the community this month as president of the Hornby Rotary Club. She will manage her work around her position as principal, and said she was looking forward to the challenge of the new role. Ms Walkinshaw took over from retiring president Craig Mason, who will continue to serve on the board of the club. It has been a busy year for the rotary club, which moved from Wigram Manor to the Equestrian Hotel this year.
It funded several community projects, including sending 52 students to the Rotary youth leadership programme, a week long development programme for young achievers. Members also helped with several initiatives in the community, including arranging car parking for City 2 Surf, planting trees on the Little River Rail Trail and sending a container of school supplies to the Pacific Islands. For more information on how to become involved with the Hornby Rotary Club, phone Alan Roberts on 03 332 0573 or Len Glass on 027 260 6027.
The value of Megan Woods’ home is surging, but the Wigram MP has taken aim at the Government after another boom in house prices. New data released by valuation agency Quotable Value last week revealed house prices in the south and west of the city had risen 11 per cent over the last year. It was the only South Island region to rise by a double digit percentage, going from an average house price of $396,483 to $440,232. Homeowner Dr Woods said she would benefit, but said suburb housing for others was becoming “unaffordable.” “While this is great news for people who already own their own homes in the south west of Christchurch – and I am one of them – it is further evidence that the housing market in the area is overheating,” she said. She criticised the Government for not providing enough affordable housing. “We don’t have enough houses in Christchurch and this is pushing up our house prices and rents . . . the Government must intervene and get houses built,” she said. “I am not prepared to sit back and watch people shut out of housing. I bought my first house in Spreydon 12 years ago. I know I would have struggled to do that in today’s market.” In a statement on Tuesday,
Minister of Housing Nick Smith said he was seeing “positive” developments across the city. “We are seeing the pace of the residential rebuild grow month after month, with the latest building consent figures showing more consents were issued in May than any other month on record,” he said. Dr Smith said Housing New Zealand’s rebuild programme would have 5000 repairs and 700 new homes in Christchurch by the end of the year. He said the programme was “ambitious,” but that there was “huge momentum” in Christchurch with a new home build rate of 12 homes a day. Spreydon-Heathcote Community Board chairman Paul McMahon said the south-west’s rental market was suffering. “These are areas that had reasonably affordable housing before the earthquakes, but now people who used to rely on reasonable rents are being driven out,” he said. “I always come across people who are sleeping on couches, there’s overcrowding in properties, and you’re talking not just about people on benefits but also low income families. It’s no good.” The average house price in the hills rose from $601,403 to $637,998 over the last year, while the east rose from $329,788 to $344,183. Christchurch’s average house price is now $459,617.

Canterbury Young Professionals (CYP) Great Debate
T
hrashing out a thorny issue, in a fun way of course, were members of the Canterbury Young Professionals(CYP) who took part in The Great Debate, held at The Canterbury Club recently. MC Mike Yardley presided over the proceedings as the topic, “The Christchurch rebuild needs logical planning, not creative thinking” was argued back and forth, for and against. Lively comments, sharp wit and humour branded the evening as a definite success, a verdict not open to debate! Following the verbal sword fight the result was announced as a victory for the negative faction.

Leading provider of fertility
or many people, falling pregnant can be more difficult than they expect. Fertility Associates is New Zealand’s leading provider of fertility diagnosis, support and treatment. The Christchurch clinic’s team of CREI qualified Fertility Specialists is committed to helping create families and offer full fertility assessments, as well as world-class technology to help people secure the best possible chance of falling pregnant. “If it’s not happening quickly, it’s best not to delay,” explains Dr Sarah Wakeman, obstetrician and gynaecologist and CREI Fertility Specialist from Fertility Associates. There are many factors that can contribute to a delay in conceiving. With study, career and travel to focus on, women are commonly starting a family at over 30 years of age. Unfortunately, as age increases, the chance of conception decreases, which is why it is vital to know when you should be asking for help
to conceive. Fertility Associates have developed the biological clock on their website (visit them www.fertilityassociates.co.nz) to help women identify both the chances of a successful conception at any age and when the time is right to seek assistance if not falling pregnant. Women over 35 years of age should wait no more than six months before seeking the advice of a GP, more advanced tests for both partners usually require a specialist’s input. Similarly, women who easily conceived a previous pregnancy may encounter difficulty conceiving again and should seek help if they have been trying for six to 12 months to expand their family without success. It is also important to remember that male problems account for approximately a third of cases of fertility delay, so it is recommended that men see a doctor too. Often there are no signs of a male fertility problem until further assessment and testing is done.

Specialists provide full maternity service
T
he team of five Obstetricians and Gynaecologists, including a fertility specialist, collectively known as Christchurch Obstetrics and Gynaecology Association, or COGA, provide women with a full maternity service, from pre-conception to postnatal care. Team member Angela Beard says, while pregnant women may choose to have a midwife as their lead maternity carer, it’s important they consider an obstetrician as well because these are qualified medical practitioners who have specialised in providing comprehensive pregnancy care. “We encourage a shared care arrangement with midwives. We work with them and have a huge respect for them,” Angela says. “However, if there are complications during the pregnancy, labour or birth, we can manage those. “Midwives are free to refer patients to us if they believe a specialist is needed, especially in the case of high-risk patients.” Women can also be referred to COGA by their GP, or can make an appointment themselves, she says.

Angela Beard, FRANZCOG
“We offer a one-off initial consultation at no charge and provide the patient with a management plan for her pregnancy. By coming to us, women can bypass the waiting time for an appointment at the hospital.” The team includes Colin Conaghan, Jane Fielder, Michelle Bailey, Geeta Singh and Angela Beard. All are Obstetricians and Gynaecologists and Michelle has a subspecialist CREI (fertility qualification). Every client is seen by all the team members at some time, ensuring that when she goes into labour, she will know the o bstetrician who attends the birth. “It’s a team approach and we get great feedback from our clients. The women really like it,” Angela says. All deliveries are done at Christchurch Women’s Hospital because of its facilities and service, she says, adding that clients with private insurance are usually covered for obstetric care, with most policies now covering those expenses. COGA is located in the Hiatt Chambers at St Georges Medical Centre, 249 Papanui Road, phone 375 4060. For more information visit coa.org.nz.

LEARN FIRS
earning first aid is not only a part of ensuring a safe workplace, but also an integral part of our engagement with the wider community. We all learn the necessary skills to ensure that in times of emergency we are able to assist our work colleagues, but are we able to take these skills home, into the community or on to the sports field? Not all workplaces are the same and the injury risk for each place can be wide and variable. The office attended by administrators does not carry the same risk as those people working with heavy machinery, or perhaps at some distance from a regular ambulance service. It is therefore essential that you pick the right first aid course to suit all of your activities – both professional and social. Take, for example, an office worker who does not have a high risk work environment and whose concern might be to ensure that they can deal with minor cuts and superficial injuries, or the ability to perform effective CPR. These skills can be achieved on a course of eight hours duration and would generally fit into low to medium risk area. But take this same person on to a sports field either as a spectator or player when a higher level injury occurs. The eight-hour course covering unit standards 6402 and 6401 (or 26551 and 26552) does not cover head neck and spinal injuries, eye injuries, hypothermia and poisonings. Imagine the feeling of inadequacy when someone asks ‘Does anyone know first aid?’ only to find that you were not taught these skills on your course. The majority of injuries occur outside of the workplace.
AID
In fact, one in three injuries occurs in the home, making it the most common place for injuries to happen. New Zealand children are twice as likely to die through injury as children who live in Australia. They mostly die as a result of motor vehicles accidents or falls in the home. Fatalities from leisure and sport are not far behind those in the workplace. The wider 12-hour course teaches the additional unit standard 6400 and provides a wide knowledge base for medium to high risk environments. This course covers many of the skills required to deal with the most common injuries, such as falls (which can result in head, neck and spinal injuries) and dealing with complex scenes such as motor vehicle accidents. In times of emergency, such as the Canterbury earthquakes, many people were called upon to do first aid in a situation well beyond their comfort zone. This is the community resilience that we as good citizens should be trained for. Lives were undoubtedly saved as ordinary people pushed themselves into a role that they never expected. It is not difficult, and courses are not complicated. But one day, you will be called upon to help someone in need. Will you know what to do? If you are not sure on the course best suited to your needs, ask your accredited first aid training provider. They can explain the course content and give you options that will best suit your needs. Look beyond the workplace and consider your family and your location. Check that you have a good quality first aid kit that is up-to-date with replenished items and that everyone knows where it is located.

A musical experience
W
het her you are aged two or 92, the CSM has a fun and inspiring course that will meet your needs after school or on a Saturday morning. Our mega-music morning package is ideal for younger children - they can learn an instrument in a group lesson, participate in a fun theory lesson and join our Take Orff with Music classes all on a Saturday morning and will be well supervised throughout if parents are busy with other activities. Group lessons are a great way to learn – students can make good friends, and there is a strong incentive to keep up with others, and the teacher can tailor fun and educational activities involving all the students in the group. For those who have always wanted to learn an instrument but never quite plucked up the courage, our late starters programme offers lessons in all instruments and, when you are ready, an ensemble with lots of like-minded musicians where you will have lots of fun. The CSM offers musical experiences in classical, rock and jazz and has a huge range of ensembles for all levels including orchestras, concert bands, wind ensembles, choirs, guitar ensembles, a ukulele band, jazz and rock combos. Visit www.csm.org.nz or phone the office on 366 1711.

T
he experiences of Great War veterans in New Zealand between 1915 and 1939 is the topic of a three-week series at the WEA (Workers’ Educational Association) this term. The course will have a special focus on soldiers returning to Ashburton and Dunedin and will look at the conditions of the veterans as they returned home, the nature of the medical support they received
for both physical and mental problems and the Government’s repatriation provisions put in place to help veterans. Tutor Gwen Parsons has undertaken extensive research into New Zealand Great War veterans. Her course will start on Tuesday, August 19, at 10am. Everyone is welcome to attend the educational courses at the WEA, situated at 59 Gloucester Street, opposite the city art gallery. The Term 3 programme has more

Pat McEvery will give an overview of the Selwyn Waihora Zone and its future. A fourth speaker, Andrew Curtis, is the Chief Executive of Irrigation New Zealand. Another new course this term is Italian Singing, being offered by Claudia Lues. Claudia is Italian and grew up with a love for her culture and its music. She will share her passion of Italian music from artists such as Andrea Boccelli, Gianni Morandi and many others.

Term 3, for instance, is Argentinian Cooking. Argentinian Cuisine is a cultural blending of Mediterranean and indigenous influences. Asado (the Argentinian barbeque) may be the dish that more genuinely matches the national identity, but there is so much more to Argentinian cuisine apart from that. The course aims to teach students to prepare traditional Argentinian recipes.
