Boycott ends cafe business „„ By Georgia O’Connor-Harding A COMMUNITY boycott has led to the planned shutdown of the Te Hapua: Halswell Centre cafe. Last week, the city council announced that a new cafe operator would be sought to take over from Wellington-based cafe, Wishbone. Wishbone is to leave the centre after it came to a “mutual agreement� with the city council. In February, the Western News reported that Halswell residents had called for a boycott of the cafe because it was not a locally based business. Wishbone general manager Jo Parang said it had suggested to the city council that it find a new operator after public “backlash� contributed to its business decision to leave. The Western News has learned that the boycott has had a large commercial affect on the cafe. Ms Parang said some residents felt it was “quite unjust� that a Wellington company was being ON THE MOVE: A new cafe operator will be found for the Te Hapua: Halswell Centre after a lack of support was shown for the branded as local. departing cafe operator.

FRUIT AND vegetables should not be as expensive as what they are. Thankfully there is a social enterprise in the city that is ensuring more people get their five-plus a day. Good Together was born out of the earthquakes and is now supplying more than 2000 orders a week. Check out their story on page 4. This week’s long read, on pages 6 and 7, is on a motor-cycle racing Canterbury University researcher. Alex O’Keefe chats to reporter Hannah Samson-Barry on his latest project involving bringing artist Len Lye’s works to life. Our regular columnist, Fire Risk Management officer Mark Thomas, says a colleague is “fair game” after he called in a car fire when it turned out to be steam. But, he said, they would rather get 10 false alarms than not get a phone call to a fire that quickly escalates. Have a good week.

Quarry’s $1m underpass By Tom Doudney FULTON HOGAN has spent $1 million on installing an underpass underneath a public road to connect two sides of its Miners Rd quarry in Yaldhurst. The underpass, which links the two 40ha sections of quarry either side of the road, is expected to reduce transport costs for the company by saving 30,000 truck movements a year. While its processing plant is on the east side of Miners Rd, most of its extraction is taking place on the west side. An electric conveyor belt more than 1km long will transport material for crushing from one side to the other and this is expected to be up and running within the next month. Fulton Hogan environmental manager Peter Savage said getting the material from the extraction areas to the processing plant currently involved a 2.5km round trip for each truckload and the company had wanted to find a better way. “Digging up Miners Rd wasn’t an option,” Mr Savage
GOING UNDER: An electric conveyor belt passing through a new underpass will transport material from one side of Fulton Hogan’s Miners Rd quarry to the other. said. “So quite simply, we ran the numbers on the pure economics of putting in an underpass as opposed to carting with the trucks.” Not having to send so many trucks across Miners Rd would improve the traffic situa-
tion for other road users as well. “You can’t really put a price on the safety aspect of taking those trucks off the road and obviously it also reduces the emissions from those trucks,” Mr Savage said. The reduction in truck movements was expected to reduce

In Brief SMOKEFREE ROCKQUEST Three bands from western high schools will compete in the Canterbury regional final for the Smokefree Rockquest at The Bedford this Friday. High school bands from Canterbury competed in heats last month and now the top 12 bands are set to play off for first and second place prizes and a spot in the national final in September. In The City from Christchurch Boys’ High School, Toastduty from Middleton Grange School and Ancora from Burnside High School will all compete on the night. FUNDING GRANTED The city council has put aside $500,000 in the 2016-17 budget to fund additional work required at Mona Vale gatehouse and a building within Halswell Quarry Park for commercial activities. HALSWELL SKATE PARK A final recommendation on the site of the Halswell skate park and recreation area will be made by the end of next month. The RiccartonWigram Community Board has confirmed it expects to make a final decision on the site on July 27, following months of community consultation. The city council is looking at three possible locations – Knights Stream Sports Park, Halswell Domain and Westlake Reserve.

Six year old Bella presented initially for unexplained bleeding from her bowel. After a lengthy work up involving blood testing, radiographs, abdominal ultrasound, bladder catheterization and intensive care monitoring, she deteriorated quickly and needed a blood transfusion in the hope it would save her life. She was losing large amounts of blood from her urinary system and large bowel. Her kidneys were failing, she was depressed and inappetant. Despite intravenous fluids and over 10 different medications she was still deteriorating. We still don’t really know what caused the huge blood loss but the transfusion initially helped, providing her with clotting factors, blood and an immune system to fight whatever was going on.
greatest and we started to supply produce out there,” he said. Since the earthquakes, Food Together has gone from having one Christchurch hub to seven, and from supplying about 140 orders a week to more than 2000. The main hubs are in Bryndwr, New Brighton, Opawa, Rangiora, Oxford, St Albans and Hoon Hay, with about 40 other smaller distribution points around the city.

Having blood readily available is helpful. We didn’t but luckily were able to source it fast. In the past I’ve used Lola for obtaining blood from but since she’s had cancer and received chemotherapy, she now isn’t a suitable candidate.
These two cases highlight to me the need for speed and urgency in seeing these cases ( whether it be late at night or over a weekend), dedication to our patients, commitment to our clients and skilled and passionate professionals prepared to go the extra mile. Our nurse took the call from Poppy’s owner seriously, late on a Thursday night when we were getting ready to close. At that stage we had no idea Poppy had ingested rat bait. She was just quiet and very lethargic. Not the norm for a 14 month old Visla! Our nurse also asked the colour of Poppy’s gums and was told they were white!! This raised alarm bells. Our consulting vet that night was fully booked until 7pm so our nurse called Steve, who immediately responded to the call.
KEEPING IT FRESH: St Albans Food Together hub volunteer Anne Powley.

Obviously both cases required blood fast. A dog can take another dogs blood ONCE without being cross matched to check blood type. We obtained 500mls of blood and 200mls of plasma for Bella from the After Hours clinic on a Sunday and Steve obtained 400mls of blood from Clive, a German Short haired pointer, for Poppy. We have the transfusion bags and filters at work and the blood is delivered slowly via IVF pumps over 2-3 hours. A vet must sit with the patient the entire time and monitor vitals. The blood is delivered via large bore catheter into the cephalic vein. Both dogs accepted the procedure well – admittedly both were very ill.
Poppy, the 14 month old Visla, knibbled on RAT BAIT 3 days before presenting near death. This poison destroys platelets and coagulation factors and causes their victims to bleed to death because they can’t clot blood. Within hours Poppy would have died due to blood loss into her chest, preventing oxygenation and ventilation. She presented collapsed, was as white as a sheet and in total respiratory distress – she couldn’t breathe at all. Our amazing team moved quickly, calling in Steve and Kirsty who worked together over 4 hours – Kirsty draining the blood from her chest ( the blood was around her lungs) and Steve transfusing her with Clive’s blood. She was monitored by two nurses throughout the procedure. Her recovery was instantaneous – after being transfused she basically leapt into the back of the car, totally transformed. She was monitored carefully at the After Hours clinic that evening and returned to us the next day.
By Tom Doudney A SOCIAL enterprise supplying low cost fruit and vegetables which started in Bryndwr has taken off across the city and is now spreading around the country. Reverend Craig Dixon started Food Together as a non-profit fruit and vegetable co-operative about 30 years ago when he was vicar of Bryndwr Anglican Church. “It started as a need in an area of kind of low socioeconomic households who were faced with limited income and a limited knowledge of what to do with a number of fresh food products,” he said. After operating the single hub in Bryndwr for many years, Mr Dixon decided to expand the service following the 2010 and 2011 earthquakes. “We contacted a number of churches, as we generally work through churches and community groups, out around the east where the need was

Steve Heap, at McMaster & Heap, has recently performed 2 blood transfusions in 5 days on young dogs at the Practice, both cases in his own time. This procedure isn’t common practice but when you have a patient presented pale, collapsed and bleeding out essentially, you have to be geared up to immediately transfuse. You also need a capable skilled team around you as this isn’t a one person job as you’ll see below. A blood transfused patient needs to be intensively monitored by a nurse to make sure we don’t get transfusion reactions ( ie tremors, vomiting, labored breathing, swelling and skin reactions, seizures, coma or cardiac arrest). The important things are having a team capable of performing the transfusion and closely monitoring the patient for reactions. “Poppy” the Hungarian Visla made a full recovery after her near death experience of ingesting rat bait. “Bella” the Airedale unfortunately wasn’t so lucky. She initially improved, but after a few weeks of intensive care and huge amounts of love, was very sadly put to sleep after complications with her kidneys. This article is specially dedicated to Bella.

Hornby business group Senior sergeant to leave Riccarton role gains momentum By Georgia O’Connor-Harding A NEW Hornby business networking group is gaining momentum. The business group was set up late last year by ANZ Hornby manager Wendy Varney and Harcourts Hornby branch manager Hannah McGowan. “When I did research, I found there wasn’t really anything up and running,” Ms McGowan said. She approached Ms Varney who got on board before the group slowly started growing. “Hornby is growing so much . . . it is a huge industrial and commercial hub in the city. We thought it would be good getting people together to talk,” Ms Varney said. The aim behind the group is to get businesses together as well as supporting charities including the Women’s Refuge New Zealand. “We have a staff donation where we donate money to charity . . . we were able to award Future Youth with $10,000 this year to get more kids to go on the development programme,”
GROWING CONNECTIONS: Hannah McGowan and Wendy Varney’s business networking group is beginning to increase in members. PHOTO: GEOFF SLOAN
she said. While the suburb does not have a Hornby residents’ association, Ms Varney said it is important to know what is happening in the community. “We invited Mike Mora into it because we think it is important to know what is going on in Hornby,” she said. Mr Mora said the RiccartonWigram Community Board supports the development of the group.
Ms McGowan said the group has been beneficial for finding like-minded people. “I think as business owners and managers we feel we are quite isolated. So it is really important you have people you can go balance ideas off.” The next meeting will be a mid-winter Christmas function next month.

Bringing experimental artist’s work is that you get to search through all of his notes, drawings and all of the material that he produced on an artwork. Things that other people never get to see. You get to work with small models that he made so then your job as an engineer is to translate all of these intentions as an artist into a piece of art that he would have been happy with. So it’s inspiring as you get to see subtleties of the reasons why he wanted this motion because it had these intricacies and chaos in there that was so exciting. So when you find these things out and come to understand what Len was trying to create it’s really fulfilling when you get to that point when you’ve worked towards an art piece that will be a Len Lye artwork. It’s also kind of stressful because Len gives you these crazy challenges where he says shoot a 30m lightning bolt across the sky and I want things to lift up 100m into the air. So he was limitless in his imagination but as an engineer you are very limited in what you are capable of so you have to come up with clever ways that you can bring to life Len’s ideas, even though they were grand scale and crazy.
Canterbury University’s Alex O’Keefe, 28, is bringing to life one of the artworks thought up by Len Lye, a Christchurch artist known for experimental films and kinetic sculptures. Hannah Samson-Barry chats to him about motor-cycle racing and skateparks Tell me a little about your role at Canterbury University. I work in the field of mechanical engineering research at the university. Part of this role is a small amount of teaching and mentoring. I really like working at UC because of the exposure to a wide range of different fields of study in such close proximity, its a 5min walk from fine arts to firing lightning bolts in the electrical engineering department. You made the move from Queenstown? Why the shift? I came to Christchurch because after working for a year in Queenstown after I finished high school I realised that I wasn’t doing anything with my life, so my parents suggested engineering as a pursuit. Canterbury University had the best reputation in New Zealand and it’s reasonably close to home. So I enrolled for first year engineering and moved up here. Can you tell me about life before you became a doctor,
what was it like growing up in Queenstown? Queenstown was a crazy place to grow up. It’s the adventure capital of New Zealand so it was a lot of fun. Small town vibes but with more of a city feel so we got the best of both worlds. It’s safe and fun and great. How did you get into mechanical engineering, so you mentioned your parents? Yes, my parents recommended it as a course of study. I had no idea what it was other than basically building bridges. After the first year of engineering you figure out what the different disciplines are and mechanical engineering was a fit in terms of the fact that I like solving practical problems and working with my hands and doing projects. How did you first become involved with Len Lye’s work? After I finished my degree I was looking for employment as a mechanical engineer and I was obligated to be in the city at the time but none of the

jobs that I could find I found enough interest in or thought I’d be happy there. I looked at the postgraduate curriculum at Canterbury University and one of the projects that was offered was this Len Lye project that I work on and to me that sounded like the biggest challenge I could
imagine. So that’s the first time I heard of Len, I researched him, figured out who he was and his background and decided that this was the project for me. How is it bringing these great ideas and designs to life? Len Lye projects are fascinating to work on because part of it

to life through engineering Why do you persevere with these projects? That’s a really good question. Something I ask myself and I have no answer too. I guess because we are working towards a goal and I can see the end result, and the end result is that we get to share Len Lye who is one of New Zealand’s and the world’s most renowned artists of the 20th-century. We get to share these visions that he had with everyone and show why this guy was such a spectacular and inspiring artist. So I see the end goal as being a really fulfilling result of these projects. After spending so much time there, what do you think of Canterbury University? I do think it’s quite a spectacular place and I do think the pursuit of engineering, whatever discipline it might be, or the sciences for that matter is the best pursuit for anyone who is mechanically or scientifically minded. By going through the engineering courses at Canterbury you not only give yourself the skills, and technical skills you get from the course, but it gives you a new analytical way of looking at your life and it allows you to take on projects outside of work like motorbike racing

which I would have never done without being at Canterbury and understanding that you can achieve these things and these people that do them, they are not this tier above, your just being confident enough to tackle these problems. Do you get any down time when you’re not working on these projects? Yes I have down time. But in my down time I like to work on other projects. I treat these projects as a job but outside of that I have time to skateboard and ride
motor-cycles and pursue other interests of mine. Tell me more about the motor-cycle racing, how did that begin? Being in the mechanical engineering department engines and motor vehicles are an integral part of that whole course and community. So I was placed in an office with two other motor-cycle racers and as with anyone that seems to be with the engineering department post-grad they were infectiously enthusiastic about the sport and it rubbed off on me
and I got tricked into being part of it. No regrets at all. What’s your motor-cycle of choice? FXR 150 small cubic capacity race bike called a bucket. Because bucket racing is heaps of fun. What is your favourite place to go on your motor-cycle? Up the Summit Rd and around Godley Head in the summer, or at the Mike Pero Motorsport Park (Ruapuna). How about skateboarding, didn’t you help bring about a new skatepark in the city? As part of a marketing campaign an American company Levi’s and Monster Children sent their professional skateboard team to Christchurch to help build a new skatepark for the city which had suffered from the major earthquakes. So they linked
up with me and a bunch of other local skateboarders and we got together with the youth and we built a small DIY skatepark at the stockyards, so give something back to the community. They gave something back, I just helped. It is there to be used for everyone and we encourage anyone to maintain or improve it as they wish. What are the best places to skate? Christchurch is a great place to skate due to wide range of small skateparks in the wider city. Templeton, Rolleston, Belfast, Leeston, Kaiapoi all have relatively recent skate parks which offer a diverse range of things to skate. These small community initiative skateparks are a great thing for kids and big kids alike.

Ilam residents Ashley Stuart, 19, and Josiah Tualamali’l, 21, were among 13 people recognised at the Canterbury Youth Awards last Friday. Miss Stuart received the Wayne Francis Charitable Trust Leadership Award and Mr Tualamali’l received the

Villa’s got talent OUTDOORS: Adventurers of all ages came along last week to try out their mapping skills at the new opening of three orienteering courses at Halswell Quarry recently.
New adventure at Halswell Quarry OUTDOOR adventurers united last week at the opening of three orienteering courses at Halswell Quarry with Deputy Mayor Vicki Buck on standby to give the countdown to the opening. Along with Ms Buck, the Junior World Orienteering team produced a 1hr course and a novel orienteering maze. Halswell Scouts also fundraised with sausage sales and displayed their skills at building a bridge. The fun permanent orienteering courses were developed by the Peninsula and Plains Orienteering club supported by the city council with funding from the Rata Foundation. Project co-ordinator Mike Marra said the courses range from levels of beginners through to advanced for more experienced map readers.
Last week Villa Maria College held its first showcase of the year for the community. The night was organised to showcase the multi-cultural talents at the school with performances ranging from dance, singing, drama and visual arts genres. The performance was hosted by the school’s college cultural captains at Villa Maria’s auditorium. PHOTOS: SHANNON GLENN AND IZZY SALISBURY
MELODIOUS: Sophie and Charlotte Holt are one of several duets in the showcase.
SING: Agatha Lee showing her off her talent at the Villa Maria College Showcase 16.
SCHOOL A large contribution was made from the community with mapping of Halswell Quarry Park from the expertise of PAPO members. The installation of the control posts also involved an enthusiastic volunteer working bee from the Halswell Scouts, PAPO members and community help. The organisers of the opening event were delighted at the huge number of parents and young children who turned out in certainly less-than-favourable weather conditions. Maps are available at the Te Hapua: Halswell Community Centre, Beckenham Service Centre and available on line at PAPO.org.nz

Parents of Year 6 students are encouraged to take a good look at their child’s full primary school when choosing schooling for 2017. Why change schools when you don’t need to? Full Primary schools are tried and tested and have developed in innovative and cost effective ways since their inception in 1877. They are as important to the provision of education in 2017 as they were in 1877.
What makes them successful? • They have evolved over time and have responded to the different demographic changes since 1877. • They are located in neighbourhoods; they cater for families and respond to community needs. • They are staffed by highly trained teachers who know curriculum levels from Level 1 – 5 who have had the same teacher training as teachers in other Year 7 and 8 school types. • Teachers in the student’s current full primary school know about individual students learning progress and learning style from Year 1 – 8.
What does the research tell us about the learning needs of Year 7 and 8 students? • Curriculum that is relevant, challenging, integrative, and exploratory • Multiple learning and teaching approaches • Assessment and evaluation programmes that promote quality learning • Organisational structures that support meaningful relationships and learning
• Developing the whole child, flexibility, nurture, innovation and child centred learning sum up full primary schools.
• Educators who value working with the age group
• Year 7 and 8 students are the leaders and role models along with the adults in a full primary school with opportunities to nurture Year 1 – 6 students.
• School-wide efforts and policies that foster health, wellness, and safety
• School organisation in a full primary school fits the needs of students not the timetable. • All Year 7 and 8 students are included in leadership opportunities, sporting opportunities, school community job opportunities, buddy responsibilities and role model expectations. They are seen by others in the school as the leaders and younger students look up to them. • These opportunities and strategies to build leadership, key competencies and resilience are available to all Year 7 and 8 students in a full primary.
Lincoln Primary
• Courageous, collaborative leadership
• Multifaceted guidance and support services • School-initiated family and community partnerships
Looking at the above list it becomes clear that it isn’t school type or school buildings that make the difference for Year 7 and 8 students. It is instead the innovative approach to learning and the attitude of professionals toward this group of students. This can happen in any school setting as long as the leadership, teachers and non-teaching staff are committed to the social and emotional development of this group of learners. Full Primary Schools are providers of Year 7 and 8 education in every way that other types of schools are.

And also The research also provides insight into what works for Year 7 and 8 students: Ministry of Education by Dinham and Rowe of the Australian Council for Educational Research. 2007 • From the broader ‘teaching and learning literature’, there is strong evidence that the quality of teaching which students receive at all levels and stages of schooling is of major importance in influencing achievement outcomes for students. • While productive and positive student-teacher relationships are identified as an important characteristic of highly performing schools catering for middle years’ students, it needs to be acknowledged that good teachers and school leaders at all levels of schooling is what works. • It is therefore debateable whether at least some aspects of the philosophy and enactment of middle schooling is any different from ‘good’ teaching and effective schooling generally in all school types.
The literature is clear in advocating ‘middle schooling approaches focusing on quality teaching and enhanced learning’ rather than on school type. Therefore it is what happens in the classroom to support learning and what happens across the school to cater for the specific developmental, cognitive, physical, emotional and social needs of Year 7 and 8 that makes the difference. Not school type. The research on middle schooling and its implications to provide quality education to Year 7 and 8 students is as applicable to full primary school as it is for other schooling types.

Email. lawyers@mclegal.co.nz Airport Business Park 92 Russley Road Christchurch 8042
MANY OF us have a heart for the homeless. I have learnt not to judge anyone’s circumstances, lest we be judged ourselves, but to at least help others to the best of our ability. To whom much is given, much is expected, is not only biblical but also an act of being socially responsible. Many organisations are taking
this issue seriously and already assisting the homeless here. I feel we could always do more. Why is it that we want our bus users to be warm waiting for a bus in our new bus shelters during their 5-10min wait while others do not even have shelters at all for a home 24/7. I would love to see a very simple solution albeit temporary to at least keep them together and covered as winter fast approaches. For example, the news recently showed maraes up north paving the way, reaching out to immediate need where need is not presently met. This allows a one-stop shop for others to contribute clothing, bedding, bathroom facilities, food
and job offers. I would like something similar here in the city. A central point to keep their social interaction together and offers the needed help in practical ways. I have spoken with founder, and primary carer and facilitator of Help for the Homeless Amy Burke who agrees we need core facilities for those living in cars, yet she has struck red tape when trying to arrange this for the home-
less. I would love to see an immediate response that at the very least opens the use of our community facilities – become available for showers for our homeless without red tape. What a difference it would make also if we could use the vacant halls in the east with bathroom and kitchen facilities now empty and not used, yet red tape again stops our ability to help others. Help for the Homeless facebook link https://www.facebook.com/HelpfortheHomelessChristchurch/ I will leave you with this saying: “A community is judged by the way it treats its most vulnerable”.
Don’t wait, phone 111 FLAME FILES Mark Thomas -Fire Risk Management Officer I WAS woken by a phone call about 11pm last Monday from a friend who lives on the opposite side of the city. She was concerned because her daughter, who lives next door, had an unusual burninglike smell in her home that could not be traced. She didn’t know what to do and didn’t want to bother
the Fire Service. I told her to ring 111 immediately. They did. Harewood’s fire appliance arrived and found a downlight in the ceiling was covered by inappropriately placed insulation. The heat from the lamp could not escape. The fibreglass insulation and associated dust was getting hotter and hotter. There probably wouldn’t
have been a fire if it had been left. But there might have been. We get lots of calls to false alarms. People smell smoke and ring up when there’s a fire in North Canterbury that’s 50km from their house and when a nor’wester is howling. Others report smoke swirling on a cold winter’s night which turns out to be mist. We never complain, because
all of us would prefer to go to 10 false alarms like this rather than not be called to the one that escalates enough to kill someone in their sleep. If you’ve ever wondered ‘should I call the Fire Service?’ Yes – do it. On the other hand, a colleague in this office called in a car fire the other day when out in traffic. Turned out to be steam. Now he’s fair game.

A bookshop
and so much more From bookworms to reluctant readers, the Original Children’s Bookshop caters for all. Finding a genuine, specialist bookshop nowadays is a true joy, and Christchurch is privileged to have the Original Children’s Bookshop, still locally owned and still going strong after 40 years in the city. now located at 227 Blenheim Road, the store is a bright, welcoming, airy space which caters for lovers of children’s books and games of all ages. it is designed to be ‘kidfriendly’, with cosy seating areas so they can try out books before they spend their pocket money, and regular activities such as book-signings by authors and story-telling sessions. The team who work there are experts; all have worked as teachers or librarians and they share the same love of children’s literature. Owner/Manager Mary Sangster says that “all the staff are passionate about children’s books and about placing the right book into a child’s hands.” They are
available to offer advice and suggestions, whether the book is for a baby or a choosy teenager. There are heaps of board books and picture books for their very youngest customers, and a wide range of chapter books, activity books and poetry for middle readers. Whether their customers love fairy stories, funny stories or action, they can recommend books that they are sure to love. The ever-growing Young adult market is also well catered for, including books from all genres and from around the world. They know that classic books never go out of style, and stock old favourites that parents and grandparents will remember from their childhood, but they are also an up-to-theminute store with the latest popular trends on their shelves, too. it doesn’t stop at traditional books. They sell audio books, family-friendly games
and a range of educational activities, and they run an e-commerce website to make it easier find and purchase to e-books. They cater for all reading styles, so that children who are sight-impaired, are reluctant readers or who have reading difficulties can still enjoy the experience of reading, and their expertise means that teachers and families can turn to them for advice on addressing these concerns. Calling in to browse their shelves is an experience in itself, but sometimes there just isn’t room to stock all the books their customers might want. instead they provide a free special order service. if a book is in print and in English, they will do all they can to source it and order it in for you. They are open Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm and 10am to 4pm on Saturdays.

PAST GREAT, FUTURE GREATS: Quinn Clinton, (second from right) with NBA greats David Robinson, Bruce Bowen after taking home the All-Star game MVP award.
Boys’ High Quinn Clinton MVP and he meets the game’s greats By Gordon Findlater CHRISTCHURCH Boys’ High basketballer Quinn Clinton, has been named the most valuable player at the weekend’s Basketball Without Borders All-Star Game. Clinton was presented with the award in the presence of some NBA greats. Two-time NBA Championship winner and 1995 NBA MVP David Robinson headlined the four-day-camp. Robinson is ranked amongst some of the greatest big men to ever play the game. Robinson was joined at the camp by a fellow member of the 2003 championship winning San Antonio Spurs, Bruce Bowen. The three-time championship winner is rated as one of the greatest defenders of his time. He made five NBA All-Defensive first teams from 2004-2008.
Clinton was one of five Kiwis to attend the camp in Melbourne. Less than 50 of the top 16 to 18-year-olds are invited to attend the Asia region camp. It was a bright week for New Zealand players, fellow Kiwi Sam Waardenburg was awarded the four-day-camp MVP award. There’s no rest for Clinton who now returns home to represent CBHS in the Thompson Trophy secondary school competition. Clinton has been a stand-out performer for his school and last week recorded 12 points, 12 assists, nine rebounds, six steals and a block, in a top of the table clash with Cashmere High School. Clinton and his CBHS side will host Papanui High School tonight. Tip-off is at 6pm.
Digital Technologies Design, and Visual Communication and Workshop Materials are the learning teams that are involved in the initial stages of a project to build two weather stations in separate locations. The first challenge for term one was to use the project plan for the school’s STEM project as a basis to design a Year 11 Digital Technologies course that met the individual needs of the students, curriculum delivery requirements and NCEA assessment requirements. It’s a popular course, with enthusiasm for it fuelled by the work students do in this learning area in the junior school. The students opting for this course have a range of skills and abilities. Individual courses were designed to establish the base skills needed to begin the construction, and programming of the electronic system that will measure, record and display weather data. The main emphasis for the first term was to establish a suitable level of coding skills in all the students. The learning progress has enabled all students to be in a position to participate directly in the coding of the electronic recording system for the Weather Stations. Some students are operating at the higher skill level and they will write the code to drive the dynamic data driven website that will display the data. These students will be assessed against Level 2 NCEA standards. Electronic systems have been the focus of learning and assessment this term. Arduino boards have been used to construct small to medium sized projects. These projects enable students to understand the electronic componentry needed in the construction of the weather stations.

New Christchurch schools
to offer students more AVoNSIDE GIrLS’ and Shirley Boys’ will be the first single sex secondary schools in New Zealand’s history to share a campus – an arrangement their principals say will enable the schools to offer their students new opportunities. The schools are to be built on part of QEII Park, next to the Christchurch City Council’s Eastern recreation and Sport Centre. Avonside Girls’ High School Principal Sue Hume says the campus will be brand new and state of the art. “Each school will have its own teaching spaces and students will spend most of their day in a single sex environment. That’s important to us. research shows that single sex education benefits both girls and boys…boys do better academically and girls participate more. That’s because they have space to learn and focus away from the opposite gender,” says Sue Hume. John Laurenson says the new campus is a step forward. “Because we are going to work together, we’ll be able to offer more. For example, we’ll be sharing some facilities, including a performing arts auditorium, theatre and cultural space, which enables us to build bigger and better assets,” says John Laurenson. Another benefit is that the students
will be able to interact with and learn alongside peers from their partner school. “Students from both schools will share buses to and from the campus, they’ll all be able to use the café, our new library and learning centre and our other shared facilities. This means that not only will they have all the benefits of a single sex education, they’ll have social opportunities not available at other single sex schools,” says Sue Hume. The Ministry of Education is currently working on how the new schools will be zoned but the schools are focusing on catering to residents who live east of Colombo Street. “Because we will be servicing a wide area, we will be establishing a network of buses to service the campus,” says John Laurenson. Best of all, Sue Hume says the new campus will open in 2019 so is not too far away. “In fact many of our current students will be making the journey to the new campus with us and those who join our schools in the next two years will spend their senior years there. It’s been a long and sometimes hard road to get to the new campus, but we are confident we’re on track to create something even better than what we had before the earthquakes.”

Dual mother and teacher role provides unique perspective HAEATA CoMMuNITY Campus will provide more than cutting-edge facilities when it opens in 2017, says new Director of Learning rebecca Wilson – it is a “once in a lifetime opportunity” for students, their whānau and the East. rebecca’s three children will be among the first students attending the new school next year. “As a mother and a teacher I know that Haeata is the best choice for my kids, as they will be valued for who they are as individuals and given the chance to explore their different passions through Haeata’s personalised approach to learning,” says rebecca. “I also love the fact that they will be at one school for the rest of their schooling, as Haeata caters for students from years 1-13. They can stay together for their education and not be separated.” Haeata is a “new beginning” for the East, says rebecca. “The new campus will change things for the better, providing a new learning community with endless opportunities – with students right in the heart of it.” rebecca joins Haeata’s Senior Leadership Team after 13 years at Bromley School, the last two as Deputy Principal.
As Director of Learning at Haeata, rebecca is part of a team designing systems and structures that will ensure a successful start in 2017. Some of the key tasks include engaging with families and students from the contributing schools, strengthening relationships with Māori and Pasifika communities, planning for diverse learners and organising safe travel routes to and from school. “I have been in my new role since the beginning of the year and not a day goes by that I do not feel excited about Haeata opening its doors,” says rebecca, who also lives in the local community. “Although it is a safe, purpose-built school with state-of-the-art facilities, for me it is more about the innovative learning and community relationships that will form as a result. “Student wellbeing is really important. Like many people living in the East postquake, it has been challenging for us as a family at times. It is reassuring to know that my kids will be supported and cared for.” A future-focused learning environment that utilises innovation and technology is a key aspect of the Haeata model, says rebecca.

The campus will be at the heart of our unique community, bringing together students and their families. “It is about really getting to know the kids and their whānau, creating a true partnership between home and school. “I have 100 percent faith that Haeata is going to be phenomenal. I see the new school bringing lots of happiness to the community, which is what it deserves.”

Transitioning skincare
through the seasons Skincare expert and facialist Clemency Alice has a passion for beauty and organic skincare. Recently travelling to Paris and Australia to further her knowledge, she shares her secrets. the tRAnSition from summer to autumn can have a major impact on your skin’s overall condition and appearance. if the new season catches you unaware and unprepared, your skin can become very dry, extremely sensitive, lacklustre and more susceptible to breakouts. This is due to the change in oil flow – which was on an all-time high during summer – and the vitality of the ‘skin glow’ waning as cooler temperatures plummet, constricting blood vessels. here’s what you need to know to ensure your skin stays prepped and primped for the change of season. PReSeRVe youR liPid BARRieR if you remove this protective skin barrier through more aggressive methods of overcleansing and over-exfoliating, then the skin cells aren’t prepared and your skin becomes more vulnerable to the extreme temperatures and external elements of wind, sun and rain. A way to protect and maintain hydration in your skin is through spritzing your face after cleansing with a floral facial mist then locking the moisture in with your favourite facial oil or moisturiser.
True
SwitCh moiStuRiSeRS opt for a creamier, rich texture in your moisturiser that has antioxidant, super skin-boosting ingredients. Select moisturisers that contain hyaluronic acid (skin plumping and hydrating), vitamin C (antioxidant and uV-protecting properties), shea butter (moisturising and protecting), and rose (softening, anti-inflammatory, hydrating). And for those with oilier skins, opt for a balancing facial oil with lavender (restorative and calming) and jojoba (balancing to the acid mantle, protecting and antiinflammatory). PRoteCt youR Skin Just because summer is a distant dream, keep applying a chemical-free SPF daily, and opt for a seperate sun-care product with a minimum of SPF30 rather than relying on sun protection from your foundation. inSide And out Beauty and skin health can come from within: • Ensure you drink plenty of water.

Hayfever sufferers receive
much-needed attention Christchurch’s new allergy clinic is making headway in the fight to cure people of horrible allergy-related symptoms. Hayfever, or allergic rhinitis, affects 1 in 5 people in australia and New Zealand. These sufferers have numerous symptoms including nasal congestion, eye irritation, sinus infections and also suffer from fatigue and poor quality sleep. These symptoms in children have been shown to impair learning and performance and in more frequent absenteeism and reduced productivity in adults, and overall cause a considerable impairment in a person’s quality of life. The South Island allergy Service, a new clinic that runs in private rooms in Upper riccarton has recently opened its doors to people who have endured - sometimes many years - of torturous allergic effects. Dr alisdair Webb, the lead clinician at the allergy Service, says, “Somewhat ironically the Garden City has had very little in the way of allergy support for patients and health practitioners for many years but here at SIaS we have specially trained clinicians who can fill that gap and offer a friendly, welcoming environment to diagnose, investigate and treat allergic symptoms.”
De-SeNSItISatIoN: tHe CloSeSt tHING to a CUre The most exciting aspect on offer is the availability of desensitisation, or immunotherapy. Dr Webb continues, “immunotherapy uses tiny amounts of the responsible allergen to build up the tolerance of the body so it switches off the allergic reaction.” Immunotherapy has been around for hundreds of years in different forms and has been perfected over recent years, moving away from injections to the more convenient forms available today. after diagnosis this is now done at home in the majority of cases with minimal clinic input. a key first step is to determine what the responsible allergen is through skin prick testing. avoidance of allergic triggers is always the number one priority but in many cases, either living/employment situation or even proximity to pets can make this impossible.

asthma and eczema are two conditions that are greatly influenced by allergens present in the air. although allergy treatments are limited to children over 5 years old this is exactly when these conditions are becoming more apparent. “The numbers of sufferers we see is enormous”, says Dr Webb, “and being able to accurately and safely test them, with even a chance to offer long-term relief through desensitisation can be lifechanging.” Hayfever alert The winter period is the time to
commence desensitisation for pollen allergies as the body takes time to build up a tolerance. establishing the trigger for the hayfever now and commencing desensitisation is essential for a spring period free from symptoms. for those allergy-sufferers requiring regular visits to the doctor, repeated medications and frequently missing out on activities and sleep - it would appear that there is hope in our midst, an accessible allergy clinic in the garden city. all further details are available at www.allergyservice.co.nz
