Strong opposition to the re-zoning of land at Jellie Park Recreation and Sports Centre may have curtailed a proposal to use it for other purposes.

Re-zoning land for future car parking, accessways or cycleways and retaining the Apollo Projects Centre were proposed changes by the city council to the park’s management plan.

At a hearing on May 13 city councillor David East, Fendalton-

Waimairi Community Board member Faimeh Burke and Shirley-Papanui Community Board member Emma Norrish voted two-one to not expand the car park.

Cr East and Lady Burke voted against the car parking proposal while Ms Norrish voted for it.

That recommendation will now be passed on to the city council who will have the final say.

“In changes made to the plan in 2010, this zone had already been extended beyond the current car park, and we had before us this

month the proposal to make a small extension to this zoning,” Ms Norrish said.

“The land could also be used for footpaths, cycleways, cycle parking, a new access road, and the like – not just for car parking.”

All agreed the Apollo Projects Centre should be retained on site for another five years, after that the city council will assess if it will keep it there.

Public consultation on the proposal attracted 130 submissions, 65 against the

proposal, 57 supporting the proposal and eight that didn’t indicate a preference.

Thirty-four of the submissions didn’t want to lose more green space for car parking.

The public was split 50:50 over the retention of the Apollo Project Centre with 16 submissions received each way.

Ilam resident Paul Deacon said it was good to get the ‘no’ vote but was concerned about how the process had been presented to residents.

“We can see no reason or data

to support the need for further parking,” he said.

Mr Deacon said in February he noted there was nearly 100 empty car parks on a 34 deg C day.

“Clearly there is enough without impacting on green-space,” he said.

Bishopdale residents are angry that no changes will be made to bus routes after a recent study showed the area was well served by public transport.

Bus routes throughout the city were revamped by Environment Canterbury in 2014 due to falling numbers on certain routes.

ECan met with the Bishopdale Community Trust and residents to address their concerns that the area does not have an adequate bus service.

ECan said a report from Abley Transportation Consultants found the Bishopdale community is well-served by public transport, with no immediate need for change.

But trust community development worker Tania Smith said residents need a direct route in to town from Bishopdale.

“They need to get into town and Papanui, as most of the health care services for people in Bishopdale are in those areas,” she said.

She said the community had been lobbying for the Orbiter to come to the area for “about 20 years.”

However, ECan said it would cost between $301,950 to $312,750 per year to re-route the Orbiter, taking into account estimated fare revenue from additional passengers.

ECan commissioner Rex Williams said it was important to get regular feedback from the community to ensure it runs the best service possible for customers.

“Because we received a lot of negative feedback after making

changes in Bishopdale, we asked Abley to do a review of the bus routes in this area. As a result of this investigation, no immediate changes will be made to the Bishopdale bus services in the short-term,” he said.

He said the area may be looked at again as part of a wider review of the network starting later this year.

Bishopdale resident Fiona Simons said they understood

the old route would not be re-established, but a direct line into the city was needed.

“They are nice enough people [ECan] but they looked like they had made up their minds before the meeting,” she said.

TRAFFIC MONITORINGThe Fendalton-Waimairi Community Board have asked city council traffic engineering staff to monitor traffic and pedestrian use of the Harewood, Breens and Gardiners Rds intersection. Monitoring is needed to verify whether there are any continuing pedestrian safety issues. Recent submissions from residents and a nearby school has indicated that monitoring is needed.

CENTRE ON TRACKThe tender for the Bishopdale Community Centre and Library is currently out for its construction. The approved design for the new facility shows a combined library and community hall joined by an atrium. The library includes a 330 sq m collection space and can also open out to a deck. The adjacent meeting spaces can be booked by community groups, and will also be available after hours when the library is closed. ROAD CLOSEDDover St in St Albans will be closed for three days from tomorrow while a wastewater main is being repaired. The closure will be between number 33 Dover St and Radnor St. Between 6pm and 7am the work area will be steel plated so that one-way southbound traffic can be maintained.

Shirley-Papanui Community Board member Emma Norrish says that the speed limit should be reduced around schools to 40km/h. What are you views? Email [email protected]

Extensive research has shown that a pedestrian hit by a car travelling at 40km/h or less will have a significantly reduced level of injury compared with 50km/h.

The question then needs to be asked – why is there not a blanket 40km/h speed restriction covering all schools across New Zealand?

We’ve all seen the flashing signs outside various schools around Christchurch indicating that a school zone exists, and requiring us to reduce our speed to 40km/h as we pass.

These signs were first installed on a trial basis in Christchurch in 2000, and research showed that they were

effective in bringing down the speed of motorists.

Since then, all schools in the city have been put on a priority list for the installation of such signs, and the city council is working through the list and installing a few each year – at a cost ranging from $40,000-$75,000 per school.

The city council’s long term plan 2015-2025 has $1,546,000 budgeted for the installation of these school speed zone signs over the course of 10 years.

In discussions over one of these school zones at a Shirley-Papanui Community Board meeting last month, I brought up the question of whether this could be something that be

legislated on at a national level – with a nationwide speed limit of 40km/h around all schools.

This would make the roads around all of our schools safer, instead of just selected areas, and it would save local authorities the burden of having to fund the required signage.

The fact that it would be nationwide would also remove any possible confusion between different schools and different regions.

Our board has requested that the city council submit this proposal to central government in order to raise awareness and instigate a change for all of our communities’ safety.

MARK THOMAS – FIRE RISK MANAGEMENT OFFICER

It seems to have taken forever but this week I finally left for work with ice on the truck windscreen.

We’re only a fortnight from winter proper and from here on I’d expect the climate will reflect that.

This means all those things that colder weather bring us can be expected to happen. Things like seeing walls or wood sheds burnt down because someone has taken the ash out in the wrong type of container and left it in the wrong place.

Things like electric blankets left on too long with weight on them setting beds on fire. Things like the placing of stuff that can burn too close to a heater or fire. It’s time to be just a bit more careful.

This week’s weather included the very high winds that struck on Monday night.

The Fire Service were turned out to about 15 calls related to the big blow. From power

lines down to roofs lifting these were widespread throughout the region. Little River’s brigade were turned out to three separate trees over within an hour.

The city crew was sent to an empty fire damaged house that threatened to lose the roof and a whole two-storey wall. It was busy for an hour or two.

The church in Bishopdale that was set alight last Sunday morning is a pretty sad com-mentary on the modern world. Once churches were places anyone could go for sanctuary. Now they need locked doors and security. Not a great reflection on progress is it?

Be careful with heating in the cold weather

Prisoners may be given a bicycle on their release, thanks to a new youth offender project.

A repair workshop has been set up in a disused shed at Christchurch Men’s Prison, which has youth offenders repairing old bicycles.

Once they are ready they are given to released prisoners who may be in need of the most basic means of transport in their early days of release.

The idea came from Youth Unit staff who have been coming up with innovative ideas to provide the youth prisoners with activities.

Principal Corrections Officer Gary Smallridge said the focus of the project is to identify ways to keep youth engaged in education and learning.

“We aim to provide activities that not only occupy the young prisoner’s time but also add to their learning, with tasks that a typical young person would be interested in,” he said.

The project is proving to be a hit with the youth offenders, said youth unit corrections

officer Kieran Giles, who is helping with the project.

Mr Giles said he has combined his bicycle mechanical and adventure outdoor experience to help young men learn real mechanical skills.

The Pathway Trust has been

supplying tools to repair and restore the bicycles.

He said he intends to refurbish the old prison bicycles before being provided with disused ones from the community through The Pathway Trust’s donations.

REJUVENATION SCHEME: Youth Unit Corrections Officer Kieran Giles helping one of the youth help restore a bicycle as part of the prison’s new youth strategy acceleration project.

Puzzle expert in the zone

Elizabeth, you are the New Zealand Sudoku champion, how does that feel?

It feels pretty good. I was really pleased with my score be-cause I did better than last year. I was really in the zone that day.

So it is all about the personal score rather than beating other players?

Pretty much. I think the score matters more as I am trying to beat myself. I like to see im-provement in everything I do.

So when you found out you had won how did that feel?

I actually thought there might have been a problem with the website when I saw my score. But then I realised I had beaten my last year’s score by quite a bit so I got pretty excited. Last year I placed second, I was extra determined this year as I had lost last year by the tiniest of margins.

What did you win?The New Zealand Puzzle As-

sociation is posting a medal and a shirt to me for being the New Zealand champion.

Tell me what it is like to compete in a sudoku tourna-ment?

It is a really friendly sort of competition because everyone is really competing with them-selves. It is online and you can have as many goes as you want so there really is no pressure. I get the puzzle and just dive straight in, then it is just me and the puzzle.

How did you get into su-doku?

I have always loved puzzles. I like to try all them out and they are so accessible so I can get them anywhere. I have been into them since I was a little kid.

What made you want to start competitively doing sudoku?

I found the website when I was poking around on the inter-net, did a few for fun then saw

there was a competition and said might as well have a go.

Do you win prize money for the events?

That would be nice, but no. It is all about personal satisfaction for me anyway, I just

want to beat my last score.What was the first puzzle

you did?I can’t remember what I got

into first. I know I started off with puzzle books that have a variety of different ones in it to challenge myself.

Where did she go to school?I went to Burnside High.Tell me a bit about how

school was for you? I quite enjoyed school. I was

quite motivated and kept my head down.

Were you good at maths at school?

At high school I was good at maths and science. But

at primary school I was pretty good at English and literacy in general. But there was a switch in high school I am not sure how that came about.

Tell me a bit about your friends?

We were not sporty at all although a few of us did get into bal-let. I love movies and coffee all the usual.

Bishopdale resident Elizabeth Challies, 34, was recently crowned the 2016 New Zealand open vaki puzzle and sudoku champion. She bounced back from narrowly losing last year by seven points to register a record score of 14,195. She speaks to Andrew King

Former St Andrew’s College student Professor Roy Kerr will be awarded the rare honour of the title Canterbury Distinguished Professor in November.

It is the highest academic title that can be awarded by the University Council and has only been won twice before in Can-terbury University’s 143-year history.

Professor Kerr (right) was nominated for the title after he won the Crafoord Prize, which he will receive in Sweden in two days time.

The new appointment makes Professor Kerr the only Canter-bury Distinguished Professor in New Zealand.

Canterbury University chan-cellor Dr John Wood said the previous distinguished profes-sors were both Nobel Prize win-ners, the late Sir Clive Granger, recipient of the Nobel Prize for Economic Sciences, and Robert Grubbs, who was awarded a Nobel Prize in Chemistry.

“We are extremely proud of Professor Kerr’s long associa-tion with the University of Can-terbury and all that he has done to increase our understanding of the universe,” he said.

Dr Wood notes that the Royal Society of London described his work as of particular impor-

tance to general relativistic astrophysics, and all subsequent detailed work on black holes has depended fundamentally on it.

“He has made other important contributions to general relativ-ity theory but the discovery of the Kerr black hole was so extraordinary that it is compa-rable to the discovery of a new elementary particle,” he said.

Professor Kerr retired as Pro-fessor of Mathematics at Can-terbury University in 1993 after 22 years, including a decade as the head of the mathematics department.

At its December 2015 gradu-ation ceremonies, the university conferred a Doctor of Science on Professor Kerr.

The Crafoord Prize award ceremony will be held at the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences in Stockholm, in the presence of HM King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden.

Does being able to think logi-cally to solve puzzles help you with your job?

Well, I work at the post office so it doesn’t really help all that much. Thinking logically really helps me with puzzles but it gets a bit much sometimes so I have taken up abstract painting to pull myself in a new direction.

Abstract painting, that’s a bit different from puzzles?

Yes, it is but I love it. I like making a mess with the paint on a canvas. It is just something a bit different.

Do you have any other hob-bies?

Painting is the main other hobby aside from puzzles. I also like going to the gym and I am part of a writers’ group.

What do you do with the writers’ group?

The writers are a group of people interested in writing and reading. It is a lot of fun and I have met a few good people in it.

Speaking of friends, do you get them coming to you for sudoku pointers?

Not really. Most people say I can’t do those but they have never attempted to do one. I tell them to chose an easy one and

give it a go. You never know you could be good at them.

Have you ever been com-pletely stumped by a sudoku puzzle?

Yes, I have. I find sometimes when I get stuck I put it away then come back to it and then I find I can work it out quite easy. Sometimes you look and look and look and can’t see what the pattern is, when that happens it is best to put it away and come back to it later while you mind is fresh.

Was this year’s score your best ever?

Yes 14,195 is my best score ever. It is tallied by a combina-

tion of time and points. You lose a point for every second you spend solving a puzzle, gain points for a correct placement and lose points for a mistake. At the end of the thirty minutes the four highest scores from solved puzzles are added together and that is your championship score. You can chose the size and diffi-cultly of the puzzle, bigger ones get you more points so you work out which one will you will able to complete in the time allowed.

Now you are the New Zea-land champion, will you try be the world champion?

I hadn’t thought of that. I would have to look into it.

St Andrew’s College students are getting back on their cycles thanks to the reemergence of a city council programme.

Cycle Safe is a programme that teaches school children the basics of cycling but also gives them confidence to cycle the busy city streets.

The programme came to a halt in some schools after the earth-quakes severely damaged many roads.

St Andrew’s College head of middle school John Anderson said there had been a definite decrease in students cycling to cycled to school last Thursday.

That meant around 3 per cent of the students were using cycles to get to school on any day. This would have been well above 10

per cent of students prior to the earthquake.

Mr Anderson said a reason for the decline would have been

the state of the roads around the school.

In 2006, Land Transport New Zealand conducted research that found 15 per cent of Christ-church residents regularly cycled and 32 per cent would consider cycling if it was safer.

City council cycle safety edu-cation co-ordinator Sarah Cooper said it was extremely important children were taught cycle safety, even more so post-earthquake.

It was a skill that applies to all aspects of transport and even more importantly it was teaching them “how to approach Christ-church roads appropriately” in-stead of avoiding cycling all to-gether.

Many other initiatives had come into Christchurch to en-courage people to get back on their cycles.

Selwyn House School students joined around 80 volunteers to plant native trees and shrubs in the Charlesworth Street Reserve.

The plants were donated by

Trees for Canterbury to help re-establish the estuary-edge eco-system that is now either very rare around the estuary or non-existent.

HELPING OUT: St Albans Catholic School pupils visited their neighbours at Angelcare Preschool to say celebrate Catholic Schools Day.

Redwood Boxing Club’s Kaelan Boyce will be fighting to qualify for a shot at his fifth New Zealand title at this year’s South Island Golden Gloves.

The Redwood club and Riverside Club are hosting this year’s golden gloves tournament in Cashmere on May 28-29.

The competition is a ranking tournament used as the main selection

criteria for the Canterbury team to go to this year’s New Zealand Championships.

The Redwood club has entered four fighters this year and has two current title holders – Kaelan Boyce and Rendz Remaneses.

Nardene Shatford won the best female boxer in 2015 at the Canterbury prize-giving.

Frank Endacott has just come back from a year off boxing and will fight on the card.

Endacott represented New

Zealand in Bulgaria at the AIBA Youth World Boxing Championships 2014.

Head coach Julian Scully said all his fighters are raring to go.

“Hopefully we come up against some good opposition that can really test us,” he said.

Scully said the team wants to secure titles at the South Island Golden Gloves and hopefully be selected to represent Canterbury and go to this year’s nationals.

Shirley baseball player Nikau Pouaka-Grego has been named the first ever under 13 New Zealand player of the year.

Baseball New Zealand named Nikau, 11, as the recipient during its first national awards evening on May 14 in Auckland.

He is the son of Todd Grego, a former Australian baseball representative, who also played softball for New Zealand.

Canterbury Baseball Association president Brian Hemera said Nikau “starred” in last year’s New Zealand Ripken All Star under 13 team when he was only 10 years old.

He has been selected again for the 2016 Ripken team this year.

Nikau was unsure he would be picked for this year’s New Zealand Ripken side, and said it was “painful” waiting for the call from the coaches.

“Yeah it was exciting to be picked, but pretty painful waiting for that call. I kept in contact with quite a few guys who all got in, and they let me know when they got in,” he said.

Mr Grego coaches his son’s under 13 club team, the Christchurch Redbirds, based in Parklands, as well as the under 15s side.

But he said schooling is the number one priority for his son.

“We really do put

pressure on him for school work and things like that as well. That’s his number one, and baseball is a back-up plan . . . but absolutely baseball it’s his number one love. He wants to go to a college in America and then turn pro,” he said.

Nikau said if he had the choice of American

colleges to attend, he would go for the big ones.

“Yes, I want to go to some of the top colleges, like UCLA (University of California, Los Angeles), LSU (Louisiana State University), or Vanderbilt University, Virginia. It’s been my dream since I was five,” he said.

A particularly beneficial and under-used service is Caring for Carers. Many of us caring for our loved ones see it as our duty and deal with the stresses this brings on a daily basis. Caring for Carers has helped carers through their range of services for years, such as information on respite care. Exercise for lifeThe Centre for Senior Wellbeing will put you in touch with service providers like Physical Sense. They offer a range of practical support-solutions to problems many seniors encounter. There are exercise classes for stroke survivors where clients can either further improve or at least maintain their condition after they leave hospital. There are four classes a week which help with strength, balance and transferrable skills. There are also other diagnosis-specific classes including Intermittent Claudication, Diabetes and Osteoporosis which means users can learn about their condition and share their ways of dealing with it. There’s even a general class for seniors. The first four classes are free and may continue to be free if you are

LIfe CAn get tougher as we get older, and it’s often easy to think that we should simply struggle on. Yet a huge range of services is available to make life easier. Because these services are sometimes difficult to find, a new non-profit Centre for Senior Wellbeing has been established. They offer a useful mix of affordable services and information on other community services such as falls Prevention and Green Prescriptions. Their desk is manned by dedicated staff who will connect you to the services you need. Although much of this information can be found on-line, for many this is a burden and talking to a ‘real person’ is much more pleasant.

Problems with feet is a real issue for many older people with limited flexibility. The Centre offers in-home footcare for a reasonable fee. Additionally, there are services provided by dieticians to help with weight gain or loss, nutrition and shopping. Also occupational therapists who help maintain independence, safety in the home, and practical strategies for coping with issues like memory loss and pain.

An Ancient spice called turmeric and its active ingredient curcumin have been proven to reduce and even eliminate pain and inflammation better than leading prescription medications. inflammation seems to be the common factor in all disease and even aging. turmeric effectively reduces inflammation while also stopping the initiation of inflammation in the first place. By stopping inflammation at the source it seems to work wonders for aches, pains, swelling and arthritis while at the same time supporting the healing process with its powerful antioxidants. This is where anti-inflammatory drugs fail, they only disguise the problem but do nothing to support the healing process and in fact may even allow the problem to worsen.

india is a country where turmeric is highly respected for its health giving benefits. it is consumed on a regular basis and researchers believe this is probably the reason many common diseases are far less common in india that other countries. A study of 2,700 elderly indians in rural north india found less than 1% had any sign of Alzheimer’s, the lowest rate ever recorded, whereas compared to America the rate is now closer to 33%.

The #1 cancer center in America, MD Anderson, now uses turmeric with its cancer patients. Dr. Bharat Aggarwal, lead researcher at MD Anderson says they have not found a single cancer that curcumin has not worked. curcumin binds to 33 proteins, allowing it to interrupt a

multitude of pathways tumors use to grow and spread, including the growth of new blood vessels that feed tumors. it can even cause the cancer cells to “commit suicide” without damaging healthy cells.

curcumin appears to be a potent weapon against cardiovascular disease also. in recent research it was shown to lower triglycerides (considered a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease) by 65%. Another study found it to decrease oxidised LDL cholesterol by 33% while increasing the HDL (good cholesterol) by 29%, and all this in only seven days.

Researchers have now shown curcumin to be beneficial in over 600 diseases including type 2 diabetes and even depression.

The secret with turmeric is its active ingredient curcumin. curcumin however has low bio-availability so not much will be absorbed into our bloodstream. Meriva as used in GO-tURMeRic has overcome this problem with its patented molecular delivery system that offers superior absorption of curcumin. Because of this enhanced absorption GO-tURMeRic has the potential to be beneficial in numerous ailments and offer significantly greater benefits than standard turmeric.

TURMERIC - The spice with profound healing abilitiesReSeARcHeRS HAve shown that

certain herbs and natural ingredients can dramatically reduce your chances of succumbing to colds and flu.

Formulas like Go Healthy “Go vir-Defence” has been based on the latest research and has already proved itself too many.

Due to the high potency extracts used in this formula most will find only one or two capsule daily sufficient to keep our immune system at optimum, however at the first sign of any immune attack, e.g. headaches, sore throat, aches etc the dose should be increased to one or two capsules up to three times daily. Most will then find the symptoms will disappear quickly without getting worse.

Go vir-Defence contains the following powerful ingredients:

Olive Leaf extract has become one of the most popular ingredients used in the treatment of immune attacks as it has strong anti-microbial properties that help slow the growth of bacteria and prevent the replication of viruses.

Garlic extract is effective in combating bacteria, viruses and fungi and supporting the immune system. in general it may be used as a preventative for most infectious conditions, digestive as well as respiratory. The anti-microbial action makes it suitable for treatment of respiratory infections, influenza, recurrent colds and respiratory catarrh.

Andrographis extract has powerful

immune enhancing properties and has been shown to help prevent the common cold as well as reduce the duration and severity of the symptoms of the common cold.

echinacea extract is a natural antibiotic and infection fighter. it helps kill bacteria, viruses and fungi and provides powerful immune support.

Pau D’ Arco extract assists in enhancing the body’s immune system.

citrus Bioflavonoids work with vitamin c and support the immune system as well as strengthening capillaries and reducing inflammation.

vitamin c is a powerful antioxidant and helps counteract many types of bacteria and viral infections.

elderberry extract provides nutrients for immune support.

Zinc is an essential mineral for the immune system and general health. it is required by every cell in the body. it is common to have sub-optimal levels of Zinc. Zinc possesses anti-viral activity.

Generally this all-natural formula is very safe and highly effective without any side effects but due to the high potency extracts used please check with us first if you are on any prescription medication. This formula is also not suitable during pregnancy or lactation.

I have never regretted my decision to go to Hillmorton High School. I genuinely believe it helped shape me into the person I am today.Hillmorton was a combination of different people and cultures like no other place I had been – it made me learn to deal with many types of people. The school was smaller than others in the area which I liked: I wanted to be a person not a number. I had so many great experiences at Hillmorton – playing in the school softball and netball teams and going to tournaments, being in school productions, travelling

to Spain for three weeks with classmates and teachers for one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life.After school, I went on to get a degree at Canterbury University and now work in my dream job as the Content Producer for the Simon Barnett and Gary McCormick Breakfast show on MORE FM.Looking back at my time at Hillmorton I know now that I would never have got through that critical time in my life without the support of my teachers and peers. Hillmorton is like a family.

Te Kura Tuarua o HoromakaHillmorton High School

www.hillmorton.school.nz

When it came time to choosing a high school, my parents asked me which Open Nights I would like to attend. My response was ‘Hillmorton’. I am more than pleased with my decision to study at Hillmorton and do not regret it in the slightest.Hillmorton provided me with a wealth of opportunities to learn in different environments, and challenged me to achieve with each and every opportunity.I was also lucky enough to meet a great “melting pot” of people,

which has helped me to relate to, and understand the different people that I interact with on a day-to-day basis.The teachers are second-to-none, and genuinely care about the education of their students. They, and the other Hillmorton staff, encourage students to achieve to the best of their abilities, whilst also making time to help those students who need additional assistance.Hillmorton lives by its vision – Personal best, nothing less!

Hillmorton High helped me realise my passion and to not be afraid to go after what feels right. I discovered that it’s okay to live differently and not go for the job that was stable, that paid the most or that was expected by others. Hillmorton helped me find myself. I also began to learn and accept challenges that were and are bigger than myself, and learn to never yield or give up but to push further than what I think I am capable of.

I was able to learn life skills and important personal qualities that are valuable. I learnt that if you work hard enough, you’ll achieve your goals.I’m currently in my final year at Unitec, Auckland, doing a Bachelor in Performing Arts, majoring in screen and theatre acting. Soon, I’m off to London as part of my secondment in my final year and

I cannot wait! I look forward to finishing this year and gaining my degree.

After graduating from Hillmorton High School in 2012, I enrolled at the University of Canterbury to study for a Bachelor of Engineering in Civil Engineering.Now in my final year of the degree, I am well on my way to achieving this with first class honours. I received the University of Canterbury Senior Scholarship.Currently, I have the extraordinary opportunity of completing some of my study at the University of California at Berkeley. During high school

I never thought I would study at one of the top universities in the world, but here I am. Living in the San Francisco area and having this opportunity to study abroad has been life changing, to say the least.Looking forward to next year, I will begin working as a structural engineer at one of the biggest civil engineering firms in the world. The future in this role will enable me to travel the world while working on the design and construction of world class buildings and facilities.

The education I received at Hillmorton has prepared me admirably for starting university this year. Teachers at Hillmorton always went the extra mile to make their subjects challenging and interesting, and support was always there.Hillmorton provides a diverse cultural environment as well as

heaps of sporting, musical and drama opportunities which makes its students such strong, well-rounded citizens.After almost a semester at university, I’m getting a sense that in order to succeed here, you need to get along well with everyone and to study hard. Hillmorton taught me the importance of both.

When our owners built their family home, they placed a huge emphasis on both quality and space, creating

an expansive 298.7-square-metre (over foundation) residence, which is as functional as it is stylish and well-appointed.

A total of five bedrooms are complemented by three bathrooms, including an ensuite off the master, ensuite of second bedroom and a main bathroom that features a sumptuous spa bath.

The kitchen is large, with a skylight bathing the entire area in natural light and an array of quality appliances, ensuring the ability to cater to all occasions.

The 2.7-metre stud enhances the sense of space in the living and family rooms, while bold splashes of colour punctuate the otherwise neutral palette, creating plenty of personality while still leaving scope for the new owners to leave their own mark.

Indoor/outdoor flow was a priority in the design phase, and the brief was certainly fulfilled. Two of the bedrooms enjoy direct access outside, while the open plan living areas spill effortlessly out to the manicured grounds.

The 708m2 section plays host to outstanding established gardens and detailed BBQ area (with power and lighting), while an oversized double garage and an abundance of off-street parking complete the appeal.

Offered to the market by owners who have decided the home is simply too big for them

now the kids have gone, this fabulous home represents a compelling opportunity for families of all shapes and sizes. Act quickly, as our owners are ready to embark on the next chapter of their lives and a sale is imminent!
