CAITLIN MILES

The old Christchurch Railway Station and Sydenham Heritage Church are among some of the 29 heritage buildings reduced to rubble in the south of the city because of earthquake damage.

The extent of heritage building loss has been tallied in the district plan “status of buildings” after the February 22, 2011.

Sydenham has the lost most in the south with 15 heritage and

cultural buildings being demol-ished all on Colombo St.

Examples include the former Sydenham Post Office, Baptist Church and Ayrshire Bakery. The Sydenham Heritage Church was demolished on February 24, 2011, and the rubble still remains on the corner of Colombo and Brougham Sts as the Sydenham Heritage Trust wait for the city council to sign off on the removal of rubble.

Woolston has lost three heri-

tage buildings all on Ferry Rd, including the community library, A&T Burt Building, the former Nugget factory and the Woolston Law Centre, all on Ferry Rd.

Three properties in Cashmere and in Opawa have been demol-ished, including Karitane Mother and Baby Cottage.

Spreydon-Heathcote commu-nity board deputy chairwoman Karolin Potter said it’s been sad to see historic buildings, impor-tant to different people for differ-

ent reasons, being demolished.“We’ve had a great loss of

buildings, and some came down straight after the quake because they had to. Others came down over time,” she said.

“The loss of the Sydenham Church was sad because of the lack of public consultation and way it was handled, it was pulled down without the proper author-ity and without discussion,” said Ms Potter.

The church was deemed unsafe

and demolished without public consultation which upset many people hoping the historic build-ing could be saved.

“We have to remember we’ve lost this and the others over five years. That’s a long time. We’ve managed to save so many, like the Sign of the Kiwi,” Ms Potter said.

So far 201 properties around Christchurch have been demolished due to earthquake damage.

Low cyclist numbers due to hillsCAITLIN MILES

A recent study shows Cashmere High School has one of the lowest percentages of students biking to school in the city.

However, associate principal Carla Smith (right) said that was not surprising, due to the surrouding hill suburbs.

A study by Ph.D student George Williams surveyed 10 schools late last year, and found low numbers of students cycling.

Cashmere High School has a roll of 1684 students. Only eight per cent of those use a bike to get to class.

The study drew 1113 responses from students.

While it found 33 per cent of respondents were not cycling due to the loads they have to carry, and 12 per cent because they found the journey dangerous, Ms Smith said there could be other reasons for Cashmere’s students not to use their bicycles.

“I think there’s a multitude of reasons our students don’t cycle. The school is surrounded by hills ‑ I wouldn’t want to bike up those,” she said.

“I don’t think it’s that our students have a lack of confidence on the road; there are good cycle lanes around the school. I think they just choose not to bike,” she said.

She believed more boys bike to school than girls. However, most students chose to walk or

catch the bus.“I’ve asked the girls why they

don’t cycle and they said it’s because of their kilts. They’re hard to bike in,” she said.

Christchurch Boys’ High School had the highest percentage of students cycling, at 25 per cent.

Linwood College and St Margaret’s College were both tied for the lowest, with only two percent of their students cycling.

The study by Mr Williams was presented at the Asia-Pacific Cycle Congress in Brisbane, which was held in September last year.

GARAGE BURNSTwo fire crews attended a garage fire on Tuesday night at around 11pm. A crew from Woolston and one from Christchurch were called to the scene, but the fire was out by the time they arrived. One person was treated for smoke inhalation.

BETTER FOR BIKESA new cycleway is being built from Moorhouse Ave, through Church Square, to Barrington St. There will be new crossings over Wrights and Lincoln rds, where they intersect with the Southern Motorway, and the path through Marylands Reserve will be improved.

CALL FOR BAN POSTPONEDA decision on whether to ban boy racers from Summit Rd has stalled because city council traffic engineer Andrew Hensley could not attend a meeting to discuss it. Mr Hensley was meant to talk at the Summit Road Protection Authority meeting last Monday about different options for the ban, which could include blocking the road completely to cars or putting a night time ban in place. The group agreed something needed to be done, and it will discussed at its next meeting in July. The ban has been called for because of the frequent crashes and vandalism along the road.

GETTING READY: Running partners Steve Graham of Halswell and Joanne Parker from Sumner running for Pegasus Health.

More than 10,000 runners and walkers took part in Sunday’s The Star City2Surf with Mike Pero – and they could not have asked for a better day to do it. The temperature rose to 30 deg C as the last people crossed the finish line. It was the event’s 42nd year, which saw people take part in both the 6km and 14km events finishing at Ferrymead playing fields. Oska Baynes was the first male to cross the line in a time of 45min 30sec, while Lucy Oliver was the first female.

Philip Beadle’s latest exhibition ‘View Point’ at Little River Gallery from March 19 until April 13.Philip works in oil, water-colour, dry-point and monotype. His immediate environment is Christchurch, where he lives, with its cityscapes, the Canterbury plains, the Southern Alps and Banks Peninsula - all sources of subject matter and inspiration. “Capturing the light striking a range of subject matter has always interested me whether it is the landscape, nude or cityscapes. I’m interested in our emotional

response to the often fleeting memories we retain of something we have seen and how it affected us. It could be a glare on water or a pose we see for a millisecond as someone moves in every day life to touch their hair or dry themselves after a swim. I’m also concerned with creating an exciting painting surface with abstract qualities and enjoy painting in warm low evening or winter light to resolve form, colour and light into a warm companion on canvas.”

Still truckin’ after 50 yearsFifty years ago, David Harris took off in his Land-Rover with a bunch of other enthusiasts, on a pioneering trip from Hawarden to Lees Valley as part of the Canterbury Land-Rover Owners Club. This year, he did the same trip with the same club – he was the only original. He talks to Andrew King

Hi David. Tell me where you grew up?

I was born and bred here in Christchurch, and I am still here. We moved to Parnassus for 12-18 months for work, but I have been here most of my life. I am now retired, but I was a joiner by trade. I still do a bit of it every now and again.

What high school did you go to?

I went to Papanui High School. It was a good school, no problems.

Do you still catch up with your old mates from school?

Unfortunately, most of them are no longer with us. I had a couple of relatives at school that I still see. Most of the people I get around with are from the Canterbury Land Rover Club, and of course my kids and grand-kids.

So you have a couple of kids?

Yeah, we have three boys and seven grandchildren. My sons have all been in and out of the club at various times. They all live here in Canterbury. We just welcomed another grandchild into the family before Christmas. One of the grand-kids and my son were in [the club] at the same time, giving us three generations in the club for a brief period.

What do your kids do?My eldest son works at the

Air Force Museum, the middle son works at Fulton Hogan, and the youngest owns his own company, called Container Waste.

OK, so the burning question: what is the attraction to Land Rovers?

Well I was always into my hunting and fishing, so it was a

natural choice of vehicle because they can get you that wee bit further than a normal car. I saw an ad in the paper to join a newly formed Land Rover club and thought ‘that sounds a bit like me’. The rest is history.

When did you first take a drive in a Land Rover?

I bought my first one in 1963, when I was around 23 years old. I did 100,000-odd miles in it. Toured the North Island in it. I bought it so I could get further into the hills, or near lakes or rivers, for hunting and fishing. I had it for 27 years. Then I got a Range Rover, which my wife, Gale, wrote off.

How did she do that?She was just driving along and

it tipped over (laughing), but that is just what happens when you are out four-wheel driving.

Was that her first crash?Yes, first and only one.So, tell me about the

Canterbury Land Rover Club. I hear you have been involved since the beginning?

Well, we have just completed a trip we did 50 years ago when the club first started, and I was the only one who was on both trips. It was from Hawarden to Lees Valley and was very difficult back then. It was real pioneering stuff back then.

So, how did if feel to get back up there 50 years later? Did all the old memories come back?

Oh, yes. We were looking around and trying to remember all the old landmarks. We also did it on the 25th anniversary of the club. When we were up there this time, I spoke to one of the farmers and he can remember, as a kid, us coming through their property, which would have been

a big deal for them back then.Where is the craziest place

you have taken your Land Rover?

Well, I have virtually been through all the back country in the South Island. Central Otago is a beautiful place to get lost in. And the West Coast - that can be rugged (laughing). Having quite a lot of members, we could get all round the place with the contacts we had. We now have to sign waivers to go on people’s properties. It has become a lot more complicated. I am not easily frightened. There are not many places I wouldn’t drive it, within reason.

How many are in the club?We had 200 at one point,

which made us the biggest Land Rover club in the country. But we lost a few after the 2011 earthquake for some reason, so now we have between 140-150

still in the club.A lot of people wouldn’t

understand the physical nature of doing this kind of thing, would they?

No. You’re not just sitting in a vehicle. You are using low range all the way up and down. You thrash around in the cab and take some pretty solid bumps sometimes. It is quite hard on the body. My newer vehicle has much nicer suspension. It is a mental game too. You have to pick your line and be smart about how you attack a hill or ridge. I have learnt a few tricks over the years to keep myself out of trouble.

So how many made the reunion trip from Hawarden to Lees Valley?

There were 17 vehicles and more than 30 people, so it was a big crew, which is good because you can help each other out and

have fun together.Is it still just Land Rovers?Nah, we changed that about 10

years into it. Now we have all sorts of vehicles.

Did you hold any positions in the club?

Pretty much everything, except for secretary (laughing). I’m not much of writer. I have been chairman, treasurer, and been on the committee for years. I am just a member now.

Thanks for having a chat with us David. When is the 50th anniversary of the Canterbury Land Rover Club?

It will be in July, and we are hoping to get as many of the 1200-odd members we have a had over that time to come along.

Great. If you want more information about the club or the 50th anniversary email [email protected].

“Where Every Smile Matters”

I was recently asked ‘what is a community house and what does it do?’ Of course, the answer to that depends on the community in which each is situated, but they all share a common theme – community development.

Every community house has its own constitution and purpose, which guides its particular work in the community. They are usually run by a team of staff and volunteers, who work closely with local residents and community groups to help create an environment in which people can build a sense of connection, belonging and participation in their local community.

Often, people misunderstand the true purpose of a community house and label it a “drop-in centre” for the down and out. This truly is a misconception and a wrong judgement. Community houses are a safe place for the community to gather, so people can connect socially; develop skills; participate in activities,

programmes and projects; answer calls to action on local issues; be informed on local, national and world matters, and so much more.

For this to be successful, a place is made for everyone. So, in that respect, you may get a few people who are poorly dressed, and perhaps their hygiene is questionable. However, addressing social isolation, breaking down barriers, and fostering inclusiveness requires a community to work together, rubbing shoulders with one another and being accepting of differences.

It is well documented that when people know those who live in their area, good or bad, that community becomes a safer, more vibrant place. An earthquake is not needed to make a better society; that’s your job.

Readers respond to a temporary ban on freedom camping.

Meryl Sell, Ferrymead: This is indeed a problem with many aspects to consider. Tourism follows dairy as our biggest economy so it should be encouraged.

Young travelling tourists have to stay somewhere. Camping grounds are pricing themselves off the market … from $30 to $40 a night. Tourists have limited money to spend and they buy groceries, takeaways, alcohol and fuel and thrill seeking activities.

The only place they can make savings is on accommodation (and who can blame them for that). Clearly there is a huge need for free or low cost accommodation areas, with toilets, rubbish containers and water. It is interesting to note that some rural areas in NZ are providing such areas. Such as Lumsden in Southland and the benefits to their local shops is considerable.

Here in Christchurch it would be very interesting to know how many of these overnight campers are tourists and how many are “tradies” working locally and sleeping rough. If a large number is the latter it shows a real need for places, at a reasonable cost, for them to stay.

I live close to the Ferrymead windsurfing area which appears to be packed every night and I am sure that the local Ferrymead shops are benefiting hugely. The complaints I note are petty, shopping trolleys (aren’t they sprinkled around town in all areas), a female in a male toilet (who hasn’t used a free loo when all the others are full). Rubbish every where … get a bigger container. Our red zone areas are huge . . . open an area, put in some portaloos and water arrangement that is coin operated . . . we want tourists to spread the word that we are a friendly country, worth coming to see.

Gary Knight, Hoon Hay: Since Government empowered transfer enabling local councils to regulate and enforce the

freedom campers draft bylaw, the city coubcil should adhere to it.

As with Queenstown lake districts allowing only absolute certified self-contained vehicles a nominated destination for only two nights, is criteria that should be instigated but not at Addington Park.

Given the situation of overcrowding, sanitary and rubbish issues by freedom campers, city council chief e xecutive Karleen Edwards and city councillor Phil Clearwater must concede the gravity of the situation and, as opposed to complacency and procrastination, enforce part 10 of the freedom campers bylaw and close Addington Park to this fraternity having been there since January.

These sentiments are reiterated by not only local residents finding overuse of the park demeaning for them and their children, but also Spreydon-Heathcote Community Board wanting this solution

Freedom campers encompassing a myriad of personnel while beneficial to our tourism industry and generated revenue by their use of eateries, supermarkets and bars bears testimony to those initially avoiding holiday park or camping ground fees. Rather than becoming a blot on

and demeaning the nature of ratepayer-assisted facilities in a public park a more realistic venue for freedom campers would be any block of unused inner-city land with portaloos if deemed necessary.

I am sure city council and Wilsons Parking would not forgo the opportunity to charge a nominal fee for their stay and upkeep of such.

Emma and Michael Vonsternberg, France: We are currently relocating. This was our goal on reaching the city. Also to find work.

We do not understand why the authorities do not create locations for self-contained units, ourselves, who have made the move, are travelling clean.

The camp sites are a possibility, but the price remains very unattractive for a couple, as well as some places in quality locations and service in general. We have not thought about the rest of our trip, but it is certain that this will be much more complicated, and therefore we do not visit certain place, and go to certain tourist sites.

Also like to add that we understand the situation, but we are not guilty, we are strangers. Many young Kiwis are not a good example either.

We sincerely hope it improves for all. So if we can add that it

BRIDGET RUTHERFORD

Will Hadfield was determined to come back from a second place to win the South Island Optimist Championships.

The Cashmere resident won the two day regatta on March 12-13 in Dunedin.

He was nervous on the first day because he had come second at the Canterbury Champi-onships the previous week-end to Charteris Bay Yacht Club’s David Buchanan.

“After coming second at the Canterbury Champs I was optimistic that I could win however there was some good competition with both David and Suede there who have both had a fantastic season and many other competent opti sailors attending as well.”

The 13-year-old had a rough start in the first race on day one, coming fourth.

“After the first race I wasn’t feeling too good, I had got a fourth which may sound good but if you’re trying to win it’s rub-bish.”

But following the first race, he picked up his game and got two firsts and a second.

The second day saw the races abandoned because the wind did not fill in, and Will (left) was named the overall champion.

“I felt a combination of being relieved and happy as this had been my goal to win and I felt

good that I achieved it. I’ll definitely be back next year to defend my title.”

David Buchanan came second, and Dunedin’s Ollie Gilmour came third.

Will said sailing in Dune-din was a different experience, because there was a large sand bar that snaked its way through the harbour.

Will has been sailing Optimist regattas since he was eight.

At the end of last season his re-sults qualified him to be part of the New Zealand Optimist Sailing Squad.

He will compete at the New Zealand Optimist Nationals in Kohimarama, Auckland which begins on Thursday.

WINNERS: Cashmere High School girls cricket team won the New Zealand Community Trust Secondary School Girls final against Christchurch Girls High School last week by a close eight runs. Nine schools from around Christchurch competed in the two day event. Cashmere will now go on to represent Canterbury in the New Zealand Cricket Players Association Nationals. Cashmere were 132-5 with Christchurch Girls High School 124 all out.

Moving On, Moving Out Listing Number: BE1925402

92 Roberta Drive, Somerfield

And this property needs to go. Our vendor has made the difficult decision to move on and their instructions are definite - this property must be sold on or before auction day.

A neat two bedroom unit set above the road to give a unique outlook to the street. A tidy kitchen with its own bay window and a generous living room offers plenty of space for homes of this size. Freshly carpeted but still leaving room for improvement for a new owner.

A small but perfectly proportioned garden out front offers the opportunity for those who like to dabble in growing plants but want to still have time in the weekends.

This would be ideal for young buyers wanting to get on the property ladder, or the older generations who are looking to downsize into a nice neighbourhood. This could also be a good first investment for those wanting to start a successful property portfolio.

Make sure you view this property by appointment.

Auction: 31 March 2016.

Ethan Rimell from CB Civil & Drainage shows Sandy Ditchburn the CCTV footage of her drains at her Aranui home.

Drainage assessments underwayEQC has started rolling out its assessment programme for sewer and stormwater pipes suspected of having earthquake damage.

The programme is to ensure a consistent standard of assessment of all sewer and stormwater drains for drainage claims.

Customers with unsettled drainage claims will be contacted progressively throughout 2016 to arrange an assessment of their drains, General Manager, Customer and Claims, Trish Keith says.

The assessments will be carried out whether or not an inspection has been done

previously, at no cost to homeowners. The inspection programme will also include properties where new drainage claims are lodged during 2016.

Assessment information has been provided in the past by drainlayers contracted by homeowners and EQC. The presentation and the level of detail provided varied significantly. In some cases assessments have not included a recommended repair strategy and estimated cost of repair.

“That’s meant that in the past we’ve had to go back to drainlayers to get the level of information we’ve needed to settle drainage claims, which has added unnecessary time and hassle for customers,” Mrs Keith says.

“The new assessment process – which was trialled successfully with drainlayers at the end of last year – offers much more guidance for drainlayers. The new process should ensure the reports are consistent and capture all earthquake damage,” Mrs Keith says.

“Some of Canterbury’s largest drainlaying firms, all of which are licensed with the New Zealand Plumbers, Gasfitters and Drainlayers Board, will carry out the assessments.”

The firms will have a certifying drainlayer – the highest qualification available – to oversee the work of licensed drainlayers. A CCTV recording of the inside of drains will identify any earthquake damage. This information will be used to develop a recommended repair strategy and estimated cost of repair. EQC will use all this information to determine cash settlement.

“We will provide additional support for customers who have a genuine need for help in hiring drainage contractors after they have received their cash settlement,” Mrs Keith says.

“If further damage is discovered during the repair process customers can contact EQC. If we agree the damage is earthquake-related, an additional payment to cover extra costs may be made.”

Update on ILVEQC is working out the settlement amounts for around 4,400 customers who were told their properties qualify for Increased Liquefaction Vulnerability (ILV) land damage.

“We have made good progress so far but there is still more we need to do before we can start making any payments,” says EQC Head of Canterbury Land Settlement, Keith Land.

“This work includes determining pre-quake property valuations and the amount of the reduction in market value for affected properties as the direct result of ILV land damage. We are also investigating whether some properties with ILV land damage can be feasibly repaired. In these cases, a settlement based on repair cost may be available.”

EQC expects to start settling ILV customers in mid 2016.

“We recognise that our customers have been waiting a long time for ILV settlements, but this is the first time this type of land damage has been recognised as insured damage, so the settlements involve ground-breaking work which takes time.

“We want to make sure we have robust valuation assessments in place and give our customers quality information,” says Mr Land.

Settlements for ILV land damage will be made by cash payment, which is how EQC has been settling all land claims to date.

The cash settlement for ILV land damage will be based on one of two approaches: repair cost, or reduction in market value of the property due to ILV land damage – also called Diminution of Value (DOV). “We are establishing which properties can have their ILV land damage feasibly repaired, and which can’t, thereby require settlement on the basis of DOV. It’s important to note that each property is considered on its own merits. Each property has unique characteristics, which means that one-size-fits-all or an automated settlement approach is inappropriate,” says Mr Land.

ILV land damage settlements on the basis of repair cost

Where, for example, the house needs to be rebuilt, EQC will likely settle the ILV land damage on the basis of repair cost if:

— there is a feasible repair method for the repair of the ILV land damage on the property;

— the customer intends to carry out the repair within a reasonable period of time using that method;

— the land has not been sold since the earthquakes.

ILV land damage settlements on the basis of DOV

Based on what is known to date, EQC expects that most ILV properties will be settled on the basis of DOV. This is because there will generally not be a feasible repair to ILV damage where the house has remained in place after the earthquakes.

Furthermore, if an ILV property was repaired or rebuilt without any repair of the ILV land damage, it is likely the settlement will be based on DOV. The settlement will also be based on DOV if the property has been sold since the earthquakes.

“Generally the DOV approach and settlements for what is another non-visible land damage type will be similar to how EQC is handling Increased Flooding Vulnerability (IFV) claims.

“For those properties where we are investigating settlement based on repair cost, we will contact customers in two months’ time to inform them of the potential to repair the ILV damage on the property, and see whether they intend to repair the land,” says Mr Land. EQC expects to complete ILV settlements, together with other outstanding land settlements, by the end of this year.

Learning from the past. Building for the future.EQC was a major sponsor of the fifth Seismics and the City forum in Christchurch last Friday. The forum brought together public, private and community representatives to voice their views on Shaping Canterbury’s Future Now.

This year’s emphasis on collaboration, regeneration and innovation was reflected in the EQC’s contribution, including the participation of key speakers. Urban planner Dr Laurie Johnson (Pacific Earthquake Engineering Research Centre, UC Berkeley)

offered tangible cases of post-disaster downtown regeneration in other centres to stimulate discussion on realistic goals for Christchurch in the next five years.

Dr Johnson has visited Christchurch many times since 2011. She said the great many aftershocks had “reset” the clock for some parts of the community and its infrastructure time and time again, but that Christchurch people should take heart in the betterment and transformation taking place.

“Homes are not simply being patched up. There is a great deal of betterment going into the reconstruction of the housing stock, the infrastructure, and the commercial sector.”

Dr Johnson urged Regenerate Christchurch to continue to work toward completion of the vision that central Christchurch is a great place for work, living and play. You can see Dr Johnson’s full 16 minute Seismics in the City presentation at www.eqc.govt.nz Dr Laurie Johnson gave the keynote

speech at last Friday’s Seismics forum.

New approach to February 2016 quake claimsThe Earthquake Commission (EQC) will be drawing on lessons learned in previous Canterbury earthquakes to assess and settle claims from the February 2016 earthquakes.

The plan is to speed up assessments, where possible, by calling customers to get all the information we need to desktop assess and cash settle their claim, EQC General Manager, Customer and Claims, Trish Keith says.

“We won’t necessarily be sending an assessor to the home, except where there is extensive damage, the claim is complex or a customer’s circumstances require it.

“EQC will cash settle most of the claims to enable customers to get onto repairs quickly. We’re doing this because we are hearing from customers that their damage is largely cosmetic building repairs and contents,” Mrs Keith says.

For those customers already in the Canterbury Home Repair and land programmes who lodge new claims from the February earthquakes, EQC will deal with their claims at

the same time. In this way, EQC will not slow the existing work programmes down due to the new event.

EQC’s approach builds on the lessons we have learnt from Canterbury, Cook Strait, and Eketahuna earthquakes. It also reflects that EQC already has a lot of information about Canterbury customers.

“The new process is being piloted with a small group of customers before EQC starts rolling it out in earnest, and early feedback has been very positive.” Mrs Keith says.

“We can use information we already know about our Christchurch customers to make settling the latest claims smoother and faster,” Mrs Keith says. “Our goal is to make EQC easy to do business with.”

There is still time for customers to lodge a claim. Customers whose home suffered damage in the 14 February earthquake have until 16 May 2016 to lodge a claim. The deadline for lodging a claim for the 29 February earthquake is 30 May 2016.

GEORGIA O’CONNOR-HARDING

Bamford School pupils celebrated being the 110,000 recipient of the Red Cross earthquake recovery grants. After helping more than 110,000 Cantabrians, the New Zealand Red Cross earthquake grants will be finishing at the end of this month.

Since the February 22, 2011 earthquakes, $109 million has been distributed throughout the city and has helped one in four Cantabrians. The eastern suburbs were worst hit in the February earthquake and thousands were helped by the Red Cross.

Recovery communications manager Simon Makker said that immediately after the earthquake the Red Cross put out an appeal, and since then, all the money has gone back into the community.

He said the level of response took a lot of people by surprise.

The appeal raised more than $103 million in donations from Kiwis. A further $28 million was given to NZ Red Cross from national societies and corporate sponsorships, bringing the appeal’s total to $131 million.

Mr Makker said it was like an end of an era, but the charity would still be continue to help people in the community post-earthquake.

“We’ve got a lot of social-type workshops still available. Especially after Valentine’s Day, it was in demand - that earthquake brought back a lot memories for people.”

Grants made by the organisation have included the 2010 Hardship grant, 2013 Christchurch Schoolchildren’s grant, and the 2011 Emergency and Hardship grant.

Mr Makker said about $44 million was dedicated to the

2011 Emergency and Hardship grant alone, and there were around 51,000 applications made.

Overall, about 37 grants have

been made over the past five years to different causes.

The final three grants available are to help homeowners with packing, moving, or storing

belongings, or for independent advice around quake-damaged homes.

Applications for those grants close on March 31.

GENEROSITY: Red Cross 2011 Earthquake Commission chairman, retired High Court judge Sir John Hansen, with students from Bamford Primary School, which was the 100,000th recipient of the New Zealand Red Cross grants, made possible by the 2011 New Zealand Red Cross Canterbury Earthquake Appeal.

standard treatment usedafter the removal of atumour from a breast, evenwith those who are deemed

to have a low risk of relapse.The Cancer Research

UK-funded clinical trialexamined more than 2000women, aged 50 or older,who had early breast cancerwith a low risk of returning.The study, presented at

the European Breast CancerConference in Amsterdam,split the women into threegroups following breast-conserving surgery: one hadfull dose radiotherapy to thewhole breast, the currentstandard treatment; thesecond had the full dose ofradiotherapy to the tumourarea, with a lower dose torest of the breast; and thethird group received the fulldose to the area where the

tumour had been, and noradiotherapy to the rest ofthe breast.Five years after their

treatment, only one per centor less of women in eachgroup had a recurrence oftheir cancer in their breast,according to theresearchers.Dr Charlotte Coles of the

Cambridge UniversityHospital NHS FoundationTrust, said: “We’re reallypleased we havedemonstrated a veryeffective radiotherapyapproach that also reducesthe side-effects oftreatment.“Minimising these long-

Upmarket hair and beauty salon My Hair & Beauty in Upper Riccarton provides a full range of hair and beauty

services to ensure clients always walk out looking and feeling their best.

The salon’s fully qualified beauty and massage therapist Sanjeeta Kirti has both local and international experience. She performs beauty and body services such as threading, waxing, tinting, facials, massages, manicures and pedicures.

Threading is a natural hair-removal technique that is performed using a cotton thread. It is beneficial for people with sensitive skin, acne problems, and those who are allergic to waxing. Both women and men can use this technique of hair removal, Sanjeeta says.

For her massage services, Sanjeeta uses lavender oil, as lavender is known to induce calmness and relaxation.

Massage therapy is manual manipulation of soft body tissues such as muscle, connective tissue, tendons and ligaments to enhance a person’s heath and well-being. Massage reduces stress and anxiety, relaxes muscles, reduces pain, improves blood circulation, improves skin tone, aids in mental relaxation and promotes overall

health and wellness.A full range of facials is also provided

with the type of treatment depending on the client’s skin condition. For these treatments Sanjeeta uses the high-quality French product, La Biosthetique.

My Hair & Beauty also offers a two-hour package deal – an ideal way to spoil yourself, or someone else as a gift. It includes a half-hour back, neck and shoulder massage, a one-hour deluxe facial, and a foot therapy with paraffin wax, which is a skin-conditioning heat treatment.

My Hair & Beauty is located at 388 Riccarton Road, Upper Riccarton. The beauty salon is open Tuesday to Saturday from 9am-6pm. Call now to make a booking and avoid disappointment, phone 348 2782.

Many people ask about who can see a chiropractor? My answer is always – anyone of any age.

From babies following delivery to older people who are suffering from pain or discomfort, chiropractic care can alleviate stress within the body and ensure you are functioning at your optimum ability.

Since starting work as a chiropractor more than 15 years ago, after studying in New Zealand to become a Doctor of Chiropractic, I have treated people of all ages with a broad range of symptoms with outstanding results.

There are a variety of reasons people come to see me including the following:

Suffering discomfort or pain These symptoms are signs of dysfunction in your body. This is an important time to remove nerve interference and irritation to ensure your spine functions optimally and symptoms are alleviated.

Accident or trauma Car or bike accidents and falls can cause severe spinal stress and subluxations If not attended to these can cause or contribute to health problems later in life.

Active exercise/sport Chiropractic care gives you an edge. Many professional athletes and sportspeople seek regular chiropractic care to ensure they are working at their optimum.

Pregnancy/Childbirth Infant caring TThe hormonal and physical changes in pregnancy create spinal stress. The birth process can be traumatic for both mother and baby, and both may

require care following delivery. Caring for a baby or infant can contribute to neck and/or back pain ie: position of mother during breast feeding and bending to pick up baby.

I provide physical solutions including adjustments, stretches, exercises, and muscle therapy – to readjust the body or help it heal from conditions that are physical in origin. These can include problems such as back pain, muscle spasms, headaches and poor posture.

What you may not know is that it is also completely appropriate to receive chiropractic care even though you may not have symptoms. Unlike standard medical doctors who you visit when you have symptoms that need to be treated, chiropractors offer adjustments to improve spinal alignment and overall wellbeing – and can prevent the pain or other symptoms even starting.

MooGoo produce a full range of safe, natural skin and scalp products that are especially suited for those with problem

skin. In these products they only use top quality edible ingredients that are known to be highly effective and good for our skin. These active ingredients are only used in correct concentrations for effective results and not just added to look good on the label. Because the MooGoo range is so safe and yet so effective is probably why it was rated the number one most preferred brand of non-prescription (non-steroid) creams for those suffering from problem skin in Australia. It is also recommended by many medical practitioners in Australia.

As MooGoo products are safe and natural they are ideal for long term use from babies to adults. They are an effective alternative or follow-up treatment to chemically-based ointments.

Although MooGoo products are

For decades scientists believed brain damage with age, after a stroke or injury was irreversible and brain neurons could not

be repaired. In more recent times, new research has shown that neurons can grow back with the right conditions and that a special extract of Gingko Biloba (EGb-761 or TEBONIN) has been clinically found to assist in this. The implications for stroke recovery are obvious, but researchers also know many of us suffer from undetected “micro-strokes” that over a period of time slowly reduce our cognitive function. TEBONIN is prescribed worldwide as a natural supportive agent for a healthy brain and cognitive function. It supports healthy mental performance, concentration, focus, alertness, motor function and to help with many conditions including tinnitus (ringing and noise in the ears), vertigo and normal balance. TEBONIN improves micro-circulation and helps the blood flow reach those critical places it needs to get to. It is a potent anti-oxidant and makes the red blood cells more pliable and capillary walls

more flexible. TEBONIN is one of the most widely

studied and researched herbal products in the world and is the only Ginkgo biloba extract manufactured via a patented multi-step extraction process. Each small tablet contains a highly concentrated 50:1 extract to give you a therapeutic clinical dose without having to take a large amount of the herb. Of 25 Gingko biloba products on the market, and tested by a major medical journal, only TEBONIN passed all five of the test requirements. Ten brands didn’t meet any requirements and the rest didn’t pass more than three out of five requirements. TEBONIN is the only Gingko biloba extract shown to activate all areas of the brain and is considered the gold standard in Gingko. TEBONIN has been trusted by millions of consumers worldwide for over 30 years with more than 8,000,000 tablets consumed each day.

TEBONIN and further information is available from the Natural Health Advisers at Marshall’s Health & Natural Therapy in New Brighton. PH: 388-5757, We are Always Happy to Help!

It will come as little surprise to learn that our owners have enjoyed 24 years in this glorious property. After all, the quiet, leafy street and the proximity to

the city’s finest schools make it particularly conducive to raising a family, which they have duly done.

Surrounded by manicured gardens on an expansive 759m2 section, this two-storey character home boasts three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a well-appointed kitchen.

A variety of living and dining spaces enhance functionality, while immaculately maintained period features (including timber floors and leadlight windows) add to its personality and charm.

A gas fire, a woodburner and a heatpump augment the home’s natural warmth, while excellent indoor/outdoor flow ensures you’ll make the most of the fabulous grounds. Out here, the lush lawns and sun-drenched entertaining areas are framed by sculpted hedges and mature trees, with tandem garaging and garden sheds contributing further appeal.

Of course, it’s the zoning for some of Christchurch’s most sought-after schools that will be the highlight for many, including both Boys’ High and Girls’ High as well as Heaton Intermediate and Elmwood Primary.

Our owners have cherished their time in this privileged spot and leave with many happy memories. With the family gone and the next chapter in their lives beckoning ,they are now determined to downsize,

offering their property to the market with genuine commitment and resolve.

Interest is sure to be high and immediate action is advised.

VEnTiLATion This includes both the exchange of air to the outside as well as circulation of air within the building. it is one of the most important factors for maintaining acceptable indoor air quality in buildings.

Filtered air supply for summer and filtered and warmed air in winter creates a healthy

as effectively and efficiently as possible resulting in a healthy, hygienic heat pump, lower power bills and greater comfort. But beware, not all cleaning companies are equal. We are constantly hearing of people being charged huge amounts for servicing and all they are getting is a heat pump clean. We at Enviro Master, are qualified engineers and therefore are able to fully test and diagnose any problems you may or may not be aware of with your heat pump. Also, as we are associated with all major brands, we are able to repair these under warranty if they are still within the warranty period.

it is important to remember, when selecting an installer, the manufacturer’s warranty does not cover the installation and consumers could be responsible for any repair or damage caused to the system due to poor installation.

environment in which to live and work. in case of poor or insufficient air intake from outside, the oxygen content decreases, humidity and dustiness levels increase. if exhaust ventilation is not provided or it is not effective, polluted air, smells, humidity and harmful substances are not removed.

Low oxygen with high carbon dioxide causes stuffiness in the room and occupants can feel drowsy. invisible harmful substances like a high content of dust and tobacco smoke are harmful and can cause various diseases. Even bad smells can cause discomfort or irritate the nervous system. in summer, it’s easy to open windows for cross ventilation, however as winter approaches, we start to shut up out houses to trap in the heat and as a result, air quality can decline.

it is therefore very important to ensure good air quality indoors through adequate ventilation.
