Delay gives chance to save Denton Park
JUNIOR EEL: Joseph Taipari has made the NRL club’s junior team after relocating to Sydney late last year.
Hornets teen scores Eels spot By Gordon Findlater PROMISING Halswell Hornets scrum-half Joseph Taipari has got his big Sydney rugby league break. The 17-year-old has been named in the Parramatta Eels
junior squad for the 2017 season. Taipari left for Sydney last year to join the Eels set up on a permanent basis and push his case for selection in the club’s junior squad for this year – and the tactic appears to have paid off. He will represent the Eels in
the S.G. Ball Cup, played between teams made up of players aged under 18 from 19 NRL and NSW Cup junior teams. He has previously represented the South Island Scorpions at under-15 and under-17 level. •Turn to page 8
By Georgia O’Connor-Harding A WELL-KNOWN Hornby sports identity says the longer the $34 million mega facility is delayed the better. John Catchpole (below) said sports clubs that use Denton Park – one of the options for the new Hornby Library, service centre and south-west pool – would be relieved a decision on a site may not be made until the end of the year. “We just don’t want to lose Denton Park because I think Denton Park is about the only green area around that built up area,” the former president of Hornby Rugby Football Club said. “If we were to ever lose something like this, it would be a massive disappointment.” The Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton Community Board recommended last week that they
would consult the community on three possible sites for the mega facility – Denton Park, Warren Park and Kyle Park. Other sites could emerge as a result of the public consultation. The recommendation will go before the city council on Thursday for approval. The location and concept designs for the facility, which will house a library and service centre, are not likely to be known until the end of the year, the board was told. The project is not expected to be completed now until mid-2019 or later. It has previously been delayed because of council budget issues. •HAVE YOUR SAY: What do you think should happen to Denton Park? Email your views to georgia.oconnor@ starmedia.kiwi

FROM THE EDITOR’S DESK IT LOOKS like there’s a lot of water to go under the bridge yet before important decisions are made on the Hornby mega facility. The key one of course: Where will it go? There are many divisions in the community over where it should be placed, and this I suspect is working into the city council’s hands. Because the longer it is delayed through mucking around over a site, the more time the city council has to find the money to build the $34 million project. We report today on page 1 it will be the end of the year before a location and concept plans are determined, and it won’t be until late 2019 at least until it’s completed. I bet it will be much longer than that. – Barry Clarke

News Still no plans for old library By Georgia O’Connor-Harding THE OLD Halswell Library is wasting away and no sign has been given on what will come of it. Groups interested in using the library are fed up with the lack of communication from the city council over the library’s future. The library has now been out of use for more than a year after the new Te Hapua: Halswell Centre opened in November, 2015. Halswell Community Project chairwoman Chrys Horn (right) said several local groups have been interested in using the facility for a long time but there has not been “a lot of communication” from city council staff. More than a year ago groups including the Halswell Residents’ Association came up with a varied list for what the library could become. This included a youth facility, museum, police office and funeral chapel. “We said lots of things and we would be happy to put in a proposal if we thought it would

City council head of facilities Bruce Rendall said the old Halswell Library, based on 381 Halswell Rd, will be reviewed by the Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton Community Board and because of this, no decisions have been made yet.

He said conversations have started on a city-wide review that will progress throughout the year. “As such, the property previously used for providing library services in Halswell is one of the facilities being reviewed. “Matters that the board may consider include community demand, other community facilities in proximity, capital projects in their area and the cost
of upgrading and maintaining the property,” he said. City councillor Anne Galloway said she was aware of the new approach for the city council dealing with the assets they own and no longer use. But she did not know when the community board would be consulted on this review. “My hope is the city council could come to some sort of shortterm lease agreement,” she said. Groups including the Halswell Community Project, Kiwi Church, Halswell Playcentre and the CDN Trust have expressed interest in using the space. Halswell Playcentre copresident Karen White said the empty facility could have well and truly been used by a community group. “I think it would be an amazing opportunity for a whole lot of groups to work in together regardless of each other’s individual philosophies; to keep a resource in the community,” she said.

News A reader responds to Western News’ article on the new Halswell skate park:
Making bus rides more enjoyable
Fashion Gary Knight – As the gateway to Banks Peninsula and beyond, the established suburb of Halswell has, through a mix of urban/ rural lifestyles plus botanical beauty within properties, parks and reserves, created an idyllic lifestyle situation for a diverse range of residents. Hosting barbecue facilities also featuring a forest, wetlands, lake, playground and complete with facilities for Scouts, rugby league, cricket, soccer, softball within an environment synonymous for hosting birthday parties and home of the miniature railway attraction. It is reflective on the diversity of the iconic Halswell Domain. Within this context and encompassing the rapid population growth of Halswell projected to rise to between 30000 and 45000 by 2035, the inclusion of the proposed skate park with full facilities, seating and shaded areas would complement the ever popular Halswell domain.
Ashleigh Monk MAGDA Lorenzo has spent the last two months delivering books to bus stops for commuters to enjoy. Ms Lorenzo started the initiative ‘The Commuting Book’ to encourage reading and the use of public transport. The idea is for people to pick up a book at their bus stop, read it while they ride the bus, then drop it off when they get to their stop. “The idea behind The Commuting Books is to create opportunities for people to engage in reading by bringing them (books) into public spaces,” she said. “I see bus stops a social hub and it’s very interesting the way you can engage in conversation with people waiting for the bus with you and sometimes the books are an excuse to do that.” Ms Lorenzo delivered the books herself on her bicycle she had named ‘Mantis’. “It depends on the weather that day; I can ride for several hours around the city. Normally

I choose one of the bus routes and leave the books at the stops on that route.” Each book had a ‘Commuting Book’ sticker with informations and instructions on the project. Although Ms Lorenzo has not had much feedback she said the travelling of books was a good sign. “Some of them are responding through Facebook. They are being very generous with their comments and their feedback. It’s very encouraging.” Ms Lorenzo estimated she had distributed about 230 books so far, and hoped that number would rise as the project developed. “We hope to be implementing a few different aspects to the project in the next couple of months.”

From Super Rugby to City2Surf
Fashion
Gardening Motoring Tasty Bites
By Gordon Findlater AT THIS time of the year former Super Rugby player Ged Robinson is normally getting towards peak fitness ahead of a busy season. This year he’s all about keeping Christchurch well fed with what he calls a Kiwi take on Italian style pizza. Fed by Ged will be one of many tasty and nutritious options available for those needing refuelling following The Star City2Surf. The former Crusader, whose mobile wood fire pizza oven is regularly based outside Il Magro espresso bar in Papanui, will be awaiting runners at the finish area of next month’s event. Outside of rugby Robinson has always had a love for food. After recently hanging up the boots he’s now had more time to concentrate on that love. “I’m a front rower so I love food. I moved to Melbourne and played over there for three years. My wife

and I spent a lot of time checking out the city and enjoying the food, that probably fired up the taste buds even more,” said Robinson. His first experiments with pizza came during his time while playing for the Melbourne Rebels, regularly feeding teammates on his own creations. His passion for fuelling a squad has grown ever since. After spending a decade as a professional rugby player Robinson knows all about nutrition, something he’s taken to the oven. “Italian style pizza has really high
quality meat and really low in sugar and salt. I do make brown flour pizza dough as well as the traditional white. It’s all really good quality, non-processed food,” said Robinson. Robinson is continually working on new creations and by the time March 19 rolls around he may just have a new recipe to unveil.

Taipari scores Eels spot
Fashion •From page 1 Scorpions coach Tai Arona heaped praise on Taipari’s knowledge of the game. “He’s very intelligent and always seemed to be a step ahead of the play. If we had a game plan that needed to be executed, he was the guy to go to,” said Arona. Taipari comes from a strong league upbringing. His father, Joseph Taipari senior, played at centre for the Hornets in the 1980s and represented Canterbury. The teenager has a bright future of his own in league and has also proven a star in other codes. He’s previously represented Canterbury and New Zealand in touch, and has been compared to Shaun Johnson who was also a promising player in his teenage years. Taipari was also touted for big things in last year’s first XV rugby competition with Christchurch Boys’ High School before a serious knee injury ruined his season. He played under-14 and 15

He then had a crack at the first XV in 2016 and made a huge impression on CBHS first XV coach Mike Drury before the season ending injury late in the preseason. “He’s and incredible ball player, he’s got a very complete game and is a great stepper. He’s got great pace and the skills to put his outsides away,” said Drury. Taipari isn’t the only promising league player to turn out for the school’s first XV. Hornby Panthers second rower Jordan Riki made a handful of appearances for the team last year and is expected to feature at No 8 this season. The year 13 student recently won the under-16s player of the year award at the New Zealand Rugby League awards in Auckland. Taipari could get his first taste of the junior competition on Saturday when the Eels play the Canterbury Bulldogs’ junior side.

Strengthen your spine, avoid back pain Whether it’s from gardening, lifting something heavy, or twisting awkwardly, most of us will experience low back pain during our lifetime and it can certainly slow us down. An exciting and effective way of resolving and preventing low back or neck pain is Dynamic Spines, a programme run by Muscle People in Christchurch City and Bishopdale. As physiotherapist and director of Muscle People, Laurie Moore, explains: “Spinal strength and stability is the focus of the programme, concentrating on the deep core muscles in the trunk.” The programme is designed to move you beyond pain to a place where you feel confident about taking part in dynamic activities, and significantly reduce recurrence of back pain, she says. Led by physiotherapists, the weekly exercise programme is conducted for small groups, with core stability and spinal muscle control being addressed. Participants experience clear progression each week, which will cross over to their everyday life. “More than 80 per cent of New Zealanders suffer from a significant episode of low back pain during their life,” Laurie says. “Of these, 84 per cent are likely to have a recurrence of back pain within a year.
Research shows that those that undergo a specific spinal strengthening programme are almost three times better off.” The benefits of completing the Dynamic Spines programme: • Stabilise your spine • Increase your core strength • Improve your confidence • Correct causative factors that may relate to ongoing pain and recurrent episodes of low back pain • Specific training for your back A Muscle People client who has completed the Dynamic Spines programmes, Julie, says: “The course has been life-changing. I suffered from severe neck pain and was fearful of any movement. This programme has strengthened up my neck muscles, making me feel confident and like a new woman.” Another participant, Tor, says: After partaking in the Dynamic Spines group exercise programme I definitely feel stronger all over – thigh muscles, arms, general increased stamina. This has helped with my gardening work, with less lower back niggles.” Before you join the Dynamic Spines programme, a physiotherapist will assess your individual needs. The programme is then split into two levels. Laurie explains:
After Before “The first level is all about learning to locate and then strengthen the appropriate muscles. The physiotherapists will help each person to achieve this based on their individual diagnosis and ability. “The second level focuses on turning those learned skills into habitual movements and improving strength. Home exercises are also an integral part of the programme. The Dynamic Spines programme is designed for men and women of all ages and fitness levels, who have back or neck pain, or with core or postural weakness.

Sutherland returns from US for Junior All Whites trial By Gordon Findlater FORMER Burnside High student Joash Sutherland returned home from the United States last month to push his case for a spot in the All Whites under-20 World Cup squad. Sutherland, 19, played for both Burnside and FC Twenty before leaving for Xavier University in Cincinnati, Ohio, on a scholarship midway through 2015. The midfielder was home over the Christmas period to attend a New Zealand under-20 camp in Auckland. He was the only Christchurch player at January’s four-day Junior All Whites camp. He has his eyes set on this year’s FIFA under-20 World Cup in South Korea, which will take place between May 20 and June 11. “It was a really good experience for me and great to see a lot of the lads there that I haven’t seen in a while. All in all, I think I played well and worked hard. Obviously there are a great group of boys there so it’s going to be a competitive selection to pick from,” said Sutherland. “I’m trying to stay reasonably calm about the whole process. Obviously to wear the fern
is something I’ve dreamed for since I was little and has definitely been one of my many goals. I definitely think I’m capable and at the standard to be a part of the group, but it’s just a matter of what the coaches are looking for at the end of the day.” He has now returned to Xavier University ahead of its spring season, which begins in March. After nearly two years at college, Sutherland is becoming acclimatised to the student athlete environment. “I’ve really enjoyed being over here, meeting people and studying. Being able to play football every day at a good level is something I am really grateful for. Being a student athlete is definitely challenging. From having class in the morning to going straight to training for three hours and then to have one or two more classes in the afternoon is really full on,” said Sutherland. Life during the season is even busier with the team often travelling home from away games on sleeping busses which travel through the night. Sutherland will find out closer to May if he has made the Junior All Whites World Cup squad.

The power of Snack on exercise
chlorophyll Chlorophyll is a truly amazing substance with powerful health benefits. It is the green pigment found in plants they use to make energy through photosynthesis. It is a rich source of natural minerals, vitamins, amino acids and antioxidants, which are essential in balancing and maintaining the alkalinity of the body. Ideally we want our body to be slightly alkaline as an acidic body is prone to unhealthy organisms that can damage organs, the immune system and may lead to allergies, asthma, congestion, fatigue, frequent colds, headaches, inflammation, joint and muscle pain, skin problems, ulcers, weight gain and over the long term arthritis, cancer, diabetes, fibromyalgia, heart disease, multiple sclerosis, osteoporosis and stroke. The biggest contributor to acidity in the body is our modern diet. Excess acidity is caused by eating processed foods, too much animal protein, dairy products and processed grains such as corn and wheat. Normally the kidneys maintain our acid/alkaline balance by adjusting the electrolyte levels in the body. The electrolytes are calcium, magnesium, potassium and sodium. The best source of these electrolytes is raw fruits and vegetables as cooking depletes alkalising minerals. Green drinks made with fresh vegetables or powders are very alkalising as they contain chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is structurally similar to our
own blood and alkalises the blood. Chlorophyll is available in concentrated liquid form and is an ideal way to help alkalise and mineralise the body. Generally 5-15ml is taken straight or diluted in water or juice. Chlorophyll is a powerful cleansing and detoxifying agent for the body and blood. It acts as a natural internal deodoriser, helping with body odour, bad breath, promoting good digestive function and supporting overall health and wellbeing. Chlorophyll supports efficient oxygen transportation by the blood and as a result can improve energy and make you feel more refreshed and invigorated. Marshall’s Health & Natural Therapy have premium GO-CHLOROPHYLL CLEANSE liquid on special at $23.90 saving you $6.00 for the 500ml bottle. They also have an amazing New Year deal (while stocks last) where you can receive the GO-CHLOROPHYLL CLEANSE FREE if you buy two heavily discounted select top selling GO-HEALTHY products for only $20.00 each.

Health or lack of time can prevent people from exercising. That’s why Sue Bustard is encouraging people to do small bursts of exercise with the Aircycle – an inflatable cushion which aids natural arthritis care by improving circulation, joint flexibility and strengthening muscle. “We spend four minutes each day, brushing our teeth and looking after one small part of our bodies. ‘Snacks’ of exercise – two or three minutes – can make a huge difference to our entire bodies. You can stand on one leg while waiting for the kettle to boil, do knee lifts, step ups or jog on the spot. When sitting with a coffee, using the computer
or watching TV, the Aircycle provides a great way to ‘snack’ on exercise and keeps joints and muscles moving which helps strengthen legs, boosts circulation and relieves arthritic pain, swollen ankles and cramps.” Sue explains the Aircycle exercises are so simple, users can keep them up every day, week, and year for the rest of their lives. “You will always be able to exercise this way. For fast results, improved circulation, fewer aches and pains, stronger muscles, ‘snack’ frequently. Small things can make a big difference.” www.aircycle.co.nz or 0800 141415

Take a trip with Third Aged Tours Taking people aged over 50 on trips around New Zealand and the world for nearly 20 years has earned Third Age Tours a brag book that Director Brenda CorbyYarrall says “businesses would give their eye teeth for.” Taking small groups of 10 – 24 people means I can operate the tour in a relaxed, companionable manner. We have an absolute blast when we’re away. It’s all about having fun. Most of my trips are run annually because they’re so popular, but I’m always adding new destinations - like “Sicily, South Italy & Vatican” + “Cuba”, as people ask for them. Brenda checks out all accommodation before booking it, and ensures the party spends at least a few nights at each place. That way you don’t feel like you’re living out of a suitcase. Many clients now have made over 20 tours with us, one has completed a whopping 27 tours. My clients tell me they keep coming back because
of the size of the groups and our relaxed manner. My motto is ‘There are no strangers, only friends waiting to meet.’ We gather together for breakfast at 8.30am which sets us up for the day and everybody thinks is a very civilised hour. I organise incredible trips at incredible prices. Look around, you can’t find better for all we include. For more information, phone 03 379 3799 or 03 312 7050 or email her on sunshineone@xtra.co.nz.

Properties in this location are tightly held and are rarely becoming available and it is almost impossible to find an original character home let alone on Sumner’s waterfront. Positioned right opposite Cave Rock, Scarborough and Sumner Beaches and boasting one of the few homes on the Esplanade with rear access and views in both directions. Views encapsulate Scarborough Heads sweeping over Sumner Beach and right along the coastline to the Kaikoura Ranges and the Southern Alps. Built approximately 100 years ago when craftsmanship was valued this graceful character home has great street appeal, good bones and untapped potential. Clearly cherished and lovingly maintained with gleaming timber floors throughout and a good old fashioned ambience. All the ground floor is dedicated to two generous sized living rooms, one which is open plan with the kitchen and has French doors opening on to the rear garden, the other being the formal dining and living room area. Upstairs hosts four bedrooms, two that are large and
two smaller plus a sunroom which is sure to be the best seat in the house. The grounds are much larger than first appear with a well laid out back area for the family to enjoy, rear access from the ROW (off Burgess St) and off street parking, garage and a workshop/studio/storage room. This is an ideal location to raise your family and offers a beachy laid back lifestyle. Enjoy a surf or swim after work or a morning stroll along the Esplanade. Life doesn’t get much better than this. With a myriad of village shops, cafes and boutiques within close proximity from your door, you are sure to enjoy the benefits of such a prime address.
