Plans to put sculptures of godwits in South New Brighton are on hold because the proposed site is in “no-man’s land.”
The South Brighton Residents’ Association wants to put the seven sculptures on the banks near the south-eastern entrance of the Bridge St bridge.
The association presented a report to the Burwood-Pegasus Community Board last week.
The board approved a $3974.25 grant for Southshore artist Bon Suter to begin work on the seven godwits, and ring-fenced a further $8000 for the project until a location had been decided upon.
Godwits are wading birds that visit the eastern suburbs every year, travelling long distances to get here in time for sum-mer. They live in Alaska before undertaking a record non-stop
migratory flight south to New Zealand’s coastline.
But city council staff told the board members that after exten-sive research, it was found that the land didn’t belong to Land Information New Zealand, the city council, or the Crown.
The land is classed as a com-mon marine coastal area, and therefore “doesn’t belong to anyone.”
City council’s community development adviser Heather
Davies said the residents’ associa-tion would have to find somewhere else to install the artwork.
“The land . . . is incapable of being owned. I’ve spoken to the South Brighton Residents’ Association and have suggested that they relocate to a different space . . . they have no right to put it there,” she said.
But association chairman Hugo Kristinsson (left) said he will continue to push for the sculptures to be installed near the bridge.
“It’s the most desirable spot, but if that’s not an option we will have to think about others. If it’s put in no man’s land and it’s not a nuisance, who would challenge it? I’d like to see if anyone has objections to us us-ing that land,” he said.
Mr Kristinsson said he has considered having the sculptures
installed alongside the ‘welcome to South New Brighton’ sign.
“That’s one of the options that has been identified, but the thing is it would look really nice where we had initially planned for it, so we will pursue that,” he said.
ARTWORK: A concept of what the sculptures would look like near the Bridge St bridge, South New Brighton.

MEDICAL CENTRE CAR PARK SUPPORTTravis Medical Centre’s Dr Sue French has asked the Burwood-Pegasus Community Board to support them in lobbying to keep their car park. The lease on the car park could be in jeopardy if the QE II Park land sale deal is confirmed. The Ministry of Education has signalled it may want the land where the car park is situated. Community board chairwoman Andrea Cummings told Dr French that during the ongoing hearings process, the board cannot support the medical centre until a decision has been made either way. She said after a decision had been made the board would reconvene to make a decision.

A playground that was first proposed for Waitikiri Square in February last year, won’t be installed until this Christmas.
The Waitikiri Square Landscape Plan, including the installation of playground equipment, trees, a football goal, and seating went up for public consultation last February.
But the city council says it is still in the detailed design stage, and the projected end date “is Christmas this year.”
City council’s head of parks Andrew Rutledge said the community shouldn’t worry, as the budget that was talked about well over a year ago is still safe.
“Funding is available for the installation of the play equipment, picnic table, park bench and post and bollard fence in (this) financial year, following annual plan approval. $137,000 has been set aside for this project,” he said.
Mr Rutledge said construction estimates for the playground are
still the same as they were dur-ing the consultation process.
The park will be bordered by Waitikiri Square and Bluestone Drive, in the Waitikiri subdivi-sion in Marshland.
Waitikiri Residents’ Associa-tion chairman Rod Miller said people should be getting more for the rates they’re paying.
“We do want to see it at the end of the year but I mean we could’ve said that this time last year. We are looking forward to seeing it, but it is taking a long time,” he said.
Burwood-Pegasus Communi-
ty Board member Linda Stewart (left) said the concept plan for the playground did not meet the expectations of residents.
“It just doesn’t meet the expectations set by the residents. It’s a measly budget, and it’s not living up to what the developers had planned either,” she said.

MARK THOMAS – FIRE RISK MANAGEMENT OFFICER
Only about 30 per cent of the calls we attend now actually involve fires. The other 70 per cent includes false alarms, car crashes, hazardous substance incidents and medical emergencies where we provide manpower with first aid skill to back up the experts from St John.
Some of our work does not neatly fit into any of the normal categories. An elderly caller last Thursday had knocked a cushion that had fallen down the side of her hot water cylinder. She wondered if it was a fire risk. It probably wasn’t. But St Albans Red Watch crew went to her house and retrieved the cushion which almost certainly saved her days and nights of worry.
We also saw the Wainoni crew travelling to Collingwood St in New Brighton the same day to a child who had managed to trap their leg in a gate. All the efforts of the locals were to no avail. A tool known as a hooligan bar, a kind of short crowbar, was utilised by the crew to bend the railings enough to release the
trapped leg.There were a couple of
potentially serious fires in the week. Both were of a suspicious nature. A camper van at the back of a vehicle dealer in St Asaph St was set alight and destroyed recently and on Wednesday night, fireworks were apparently utilised to ignite a fire on the Port Hills that was visible across the city.
I’m sure police would appreciate any information that might identify either set of culprits.

Readers respond to the Pegasus Post article on the fireworks display being moved away from New Brighton for the next two years:
Paul Jennings: I have read about the fireworks being canned from the pier until repairs are complete. I think Hagley Park would be a better place than Scarborough. Think about the traffic. There is only one way in and out of Scarborough. Hagley Park is more central for all.
Louise Macdonald: If we lose the fireworks to somewhere else, for example Sumner, we
definitely won’t see the venue back in New Brighton. Also has anyone thought of the one-way road into Sumner, on Guy Fawkes night? It would be a nightmare for parents taking their families on the night of November 5.
Can you imagine the chaos on the road into, and back out, especially in the dark? And don’t forget November 5 doesn’t always fall on a Saturday night, so children have to be back to school the next morning, and if it’s late, then hitting one-way traffic out of Sumner could mean they don’t get back home until after 11pm.
It is bad enough driving home
out of New Brighton – I know because one year our family went up from South Brighton to New Brighton, and when the fireworks finished, it took an hour or more to get back to South Brighton, with all the traffic. So from then on we just go over to the beach and watched from there.
New Brighton certainly doesn’t need to lose any venues, it’s already suffering through lack of shops. Compared that to what it was like in its hay day. I agree with Tim Sintes’ comment, “promises have a habit of being broken around here” – meaning New Brighton. So true.

ALLEGED ASSAULT A man suffered moderate injuries after he was allegedly assaulted last week in New Brighton. St John sent an ambulance to the incident, on Marine Parade, at about 7.30pm last Tuesday. The man, in his 50s, was taken to hospital.
ROAD REPAIRS From today Travis Rd, between Blue Gum Place and Atlantis St, will be closed for Stronger
Christchurch Infrastructure Rebuild Team wastewater, storm water and road repairs. This is expected to take about two months. Traffic will be diverted around the site using the former QE II slip road. Meanwhile, traffic going east towards The Palms Shopping Centre is being detoured, because of culvert repairs. Traffic management is scheduled to be uplifted by late May. Work will be undertaken at night on North Parade, between
Banks Ave and Randall St, and is due to finish early this week.
SPEED BUMP NOT NEEDED A speed bump will not be installed on Saltaire St, North New Brighton, after a report by city council staff told a community board there was no need for one. The report was heard at last week’s Burwood-Pegasus Community Board meeting, and said the estimated cost of installing a speed bump
on the street would be more than $30,000.
BREAST CANCER CAMPAIGN Customers visiting their local Robert Harris café throughout May can order off the menu and 10 per cent of their meal purchase will be donated to the New Zealand Breast Cancer Foundation’s Pink Ribbon Appeal. The company is aiming to raise $100,000 by the end of the campaign.

Avondale and Wainoni residents are concerned that when Haeata Community Campus opens next year, students will be unsafe walking home from late-night events, due to a number of “dangerous” alleyways.
The opening of Haeata will see the closure of Avondale, Wainoni, Aranui Primary, and Aranui High Schools, and is only three terms away from opening its doors.
But concerns have been raised over the safety of students attending Haeata, who would walk to and from the school, and use these alleyways.
At a recent Active and Passenger Transport Working Group meet-
ing, the concerns were raised by Living Streets spokeswoman Meg Christie.
Mrs Christie said that in daylight hours residents living around the al-leyways didn’t think it was risky us-ing them, but in the night and early morning, they saw a risk involved.
“It’s the moving around to rugby training or church events or something that is the problem. If students are walking or cycling to and from their after-school events, they need to feel safe,” she said.
In the Avondale-Wainoni suburbs, six alleyways have been named as needing more lighting, some back onto parks, and most are in residential areas.
The alleyways of concern are
between Mervyn Drive and Wool-ley St, Pembroke St and Emlyn Pl, Wainoni Rd and Aldershot St, Ben Rarere Ave and Aldershot St, Ventor and Corhampton Sts, and Meon and Warblington Sts.
Mrs Christie said a lot of resi-dents said they wouldn’t feel safe walking down certain alleyways, and wouldn’t recommend others to either.
“The neighbours said ‘we don’t want to encourage people to walk down there’. They said it’s really scary at night. They lived there and felt it wasn’t safe,” she said.
Burwood-Pegasus Community Board member Tim Baker said he was fully supportive of the alley-ways receiving more lighting.

A family who lost their parakeet two years ago have been reunited with their feathery friend, but they won’t take him back home, they’re just happy to see he’s alive.
Pegasus Post reported last week that a para-keet had made itself at home in a Burwood resi-dent’s trees.
A Shirley resi-dent contacted the Pegasus Post to say she thought the bird could be her “best fiend” Tweety Bird, who she lost two years before.
Shahna Hira said she lost her pet parakeet two years ago when it managed to escape outside and fly away.
“We did post things on Face-book and Trade Me and tracked him for a month after he flew away. We went to all the loca-tions that people had said they’d seen him, but couldn’t find
him,” she said.But, after reading last week’s
article, Ms Hira was convinced that Tweety Bird had reap-peared at Burwood residents Roger and Veronica Foley’s house. She made contact with
the couple, who have had the parakeet visit them every day since they moved in last year.
Ms Hira said she visited the Foleys twice to have a look at the parakeet, and was “certain” it was the same bird she had lost two years before.
But she said as much as she want-ed to catch Tweety
Bird and take him home, she knew she had to leave him.
“As much as we’d love to have caught him and taken him home, we’re just happy to know he’s happy, and happy to know he’s being looked after. I will be visiting him but it’s never going to be about us trying to catch him,” she said.

Help for the Homeless is one of more than 50 community groups that has registered its interest in the use of a classroom at the former Central New Brighton School.
Central New Brighton, along with Freeville and North New Brighton schools were merged to make way for Rawhiti School at the end of last year.
ReNew Brighton has volun-teered to help line up the use of the former school site with the best wishes of the community.
The site has been split up into three sections. The hall, the pool, and the school sites.
ReNew Brighton co-ordinator Sylvia Smyth said the hall site has not seen any changes, and is currently being used by the Christchurch Circus Trust.
Meanwhile, a decision to demolish the pool site is being lobbied by the Strategic Urban Rejuvenation Force, after it was announced without public consultation.
Ms Smyth said this has left the school site, which contains nine usable classrooms, up for com-munity use.
“We don’t know how long we will have this (site) for. The school has gone to the dispos-al process, which is what happens when the Ministry of Education doesn’t need the school any-more, and they’re in the process of getting rid of it,” she said.
Help for the Homeless founder Amy Burke (above) said the group is “very interested” in using one of the classrooms for storage.
“We are very interested in the site. We’re hoping for it, because then we can get a new space for
storing furniture, although we haven’t been in contact with the organisers since then,” she said.
She said getting a classroom for storage would “make things really easy”, because furniture currently has to be placed all over town.
Ms Smyth said ReNew Brighton will continue negotiations with the Ministry of Education.
“There was a huge variety of ideas and among that a strong art theme. We don’t know how we will operate just yet . . . we’re at the point now that we’ve said we’ll continue lease negotiations with the ministry,” she said.
School space draws interest from community groups

Tuesday May 10 2016PEGASUS POST 7
Hi Colin, when did you come to Parklands, and why?
I started at Parklands Baptist Community Church the week before Easter, and what brought me out here was, after pastor-ing in other places, I found they had a really strong community connection. Part of me wanted to become a pastor in a really interesting community.
So it was the community connection that drew you in?
It has a really strong com-munity connection. We had friends who went through the earthquake and we really wanted to be here, but obviously at the same time I didn’t want to be here. The church is very in-volved in community. I can’t give you exact numbers but it’s an astonishing number of people coming through every week. There is a craft group, a move and groove group for toddlers, babies groups, and they show movies. They’re really very involved. It was very attractive for me.
Where were you in 2011?I was in Invercargill, work-
ing with the Invercargill Central Baptist Church in 2011. When the earthquake rolled around, the Parklands church really did very well. They opened up their building, became an earthquake support area for the community and ran meals for everyone for about six weeks. I wasn’t here for it but I have heard from peo-ple around the area who say: ‘Oh
yes, I’ve had a meal there’ or something like that, about their experiences with the church.
Wow, sounds like you’ve picked the right one. Where did you train to become a pas-tor?
I trained at Carey College and also the University of Auckland. So I have a bachelor in theology, and have pastored in Ilam for eight years and another eight in Invercargill before that.
And what did you do before that?
Well this is where it gets inter-esting. I actually spent four years in Hong Kong and helped drug addicts for some of that.
Well I wasn’t expecting that answer. How did you help them?
It was astonishing, and proba-bly one of the reasons I’ve ended up working as a pastor, is seeing
a number of people change their lives. My background is with computers, and although com-puters are great, it’s even better seeing people change their lives for good, it’s just magnificent.
So did you go over there specifically to work with drug addicts?
I went over to work with computers, and wanted to see if I could live in another culture. I got involved with a church that was working specifically with heroin addicts. After we’d been involved with the church for a few years, full-time, we began running houses that housed re-covering addicts. And that would probably have been for 24 hours a day, six days a week.
So it was a successful exer-cise?
A lot of those guys have over-come that now and they have
lives now, it’s just fantastic. We do keep in touch with a few and they’re doing well, from what looked like dead-end stories, have now got lives and they’re out making a difference. That was for two years full-time, and a year and a half were volunteering.
So if you were volunteer-ing did you have to have a job there too?
When we first got there I worked with computers, and my wife worked as a nurse, and is now a district nurse here in Christchurch. But we actually lived off our savings back then. I think it was in the mid-90s.
So how old does that make you now?
Hmm . . . let’s just say I’m in my 50s.
Okay fair enough. Where did you meet your wife?
I met my wife in Wellington.
No, it wasn’t love at first sight (laughs) – love is a process. When I left to go to Hong Kong I actually called her from my hotel in Boston (during a stop-over) and I proposed to her over the phone, while she was back in Wellington.
What – really?I missed the engagement party
and everything – don’t do it the way I did. I guess you could say I came to my senses right then and there, and have not regretted it ever since. We’ve now been married 25 years.
Do you have any children?Yes, I have two daughters.
They’re both university age. One is at Canterbury and one is in Dunedin, they’re both studying.
And what do you do in your spare time?
Well I surf . . . badly. I’m a bit of an old fogey, so I have a longboard, but my friend has leant me a shortboard so I will be trying out the shortboard soon. I’m really enjoying riding the mountain bike around Bottle Lake Forest as well. And I’m also an old school whitewater kayaker, which I don’t do as much anymore unfortunately, and I also play guitar.
Would you say you like ex-treme sports?
I actually skateboard to church sometimes. It’s just such a fun thing to do. It’s just really good getting some exercise. But I’m too old to get into the really ex-treme sports, I don’t take it down hills, you become aware that once you’re past 50 your body doesn’t bounce like it used to.
Where were you born?I grew up in Christchurch on
the Port Hills, from about age seven upwards. I wasn’t born here, I was born in Australia.
Oh no, not an Aussie-born Kiwi?
I won’t respond to what rugby team I support (laughs). I have a New Zealand passport but I was born in Manly.
What schools did you at-tend?

Marshland School pupils came back after the holidays to find they had a whole range of new equipment, a cricket pitch, and more seating for lunchtime.
They were all installed at the school during the holiday break.
Principal Jacqui Pascoe said the pupils have spent their morning tea and lunch breaks testing out the new equipment all week.
“The children, teachers and parents at Marshland are all very excited to have the new equipment,” she said.
The pupils have also been training for their upcoming cross-country event, which will
be the first at the new site.Mrs Pascoe said the new track
will be testing for the pupils.“At the new school, the cross-
country track is much more interesting with mounds for the children to
run up and down,” she said.In addition to the pupils com-
ing back from their holiday break, Mrs Pascoe said the sec-ond stage of development to the
school is about to begin.“(Stage two) will
consist of a new learn-ing hub and da Vinci making space for our intermediate students, and a learning hub for a group of stu-dents from Ferndale School,” she said.
She said the da Vinci space will be where pupils can
design, create and collaborate on new ideas using technology.

Buddy classes at Banks Avenue School last week had a ‘singing and signing’ lesson. The school celebrated New Zealand Sign Language Week by learning letters and words from a pupil who has cochlear implants, with the help of her mother. Natalia and mother Liz Kay taught junior and senior buddy classes a fun way of learning sign language, through singing and dancing. New Zealand Sign Language Week started yesterday and runs until Sunday.

The power of communityOrion is privileged to have been associated with Community Energy Action (CEA) for more than twenty years.
CEA is a charitable trust that provides insulation and energy advice services to the most vulnerable in our community with the overriding objective of creating warmer, healthier and more energy efficient homes.
Results of the Healthy Homes Project, a recent study undertaken by the Canterbury District Health Board and CEA, shows a direct correlation between insulated homes and a reduction in hospital bed days by up to 30%.
Working in a collaborative partnership with CEA has enabled a great deal to be achieved where it is most needed.
oriongroup.co.nz
Many benefits from insulating homesA successful partnership between community, health and commercial organisations has helped save Canterbury DHB nearly $1m, by providing insulation and/or heating to high health needs patients.
As well as reducing hospital costs, it has also assisted in en-suring people can remain in their own homes.
In 2011, a Healthy Homes pro-gramme was created between the Canterbury DHB and the three Canterbury primary health care organisations, Community Ener-gy Action, Environment Canter-bury and the Energy Efficiency Conservation Authority. Orion and MainPower also contributed funding into this programme.
The programme was devel-oped to keep people in their own homes and communities rather than using hospital services. This recognised Canterbury’s compro-mised housing stock following the 2010 and 2011 earthquakes. The Canterbury DHB and part-nering organisations understood the potential benefits for frequent users of the health system of liv-ing in warm and dry homes, in-cluding improved physical and mental health.
The programme initially fo-cused on people who had been in the Christchurch Hospital at least twice within a year prior to the programme starting (defined as being the highest-needs patients). In July 2013, the programme was extended to include general prac-
tice patients, for example fami-lies with children under 17 years of age identified as being at risk and parents with newborn babies.
The programme ran from 2011 to late 2014 and the whole pro-gramme provided over 1500 in-sulation installations and 450 heating appliances. Partnerships amongst the organisations meant many Healthy Homes’ clients were referred to other organisa-tions and services, as additional needs were identified.
A qualitative report was com-pleted by Pegasus Health in June 2015 on the whole programme.
Canterbury DHB invested
$1.7m over 2.5 years between 2011 and 2014, covering 22 per cent of the total programme costs.
Around half of the $1.7m in-vested went towards intervention costs for the 900 highest-needs patients, as defined above. The remaining partnering organisa-tions covered the balance of the total costs. Of those 900 high-est-need patients, a significant number of them were aged over 65. There was an approximately 60 per cent/40 per cent split be-tween home owners and tenants.
After reviewing the health data, comparing the year prior to the interventions with the year
following, the findings showed a 29.2 per cent reduction in hospi-tal bed days of those 900 patients. This equates to a reduction of five bed days per annum, a cost saving to the Canterbury DHB of nearly $1m.
“This means the programme was extremely successful for the community and all involved in-cluding the Canterbury DHB,” says Caroline Shone, chief ex-ecutive of CEA.
“Whilst the cost for insula-tion and heating is a one-off, the benefits last for years. I’m sure for the Canterbury DHB the re-turn on investment can be spent on other health needs. This pro-gramme was a first for CEA and the other organisations involved, I am really happy that we have helped so many people working in partnership with Government, private and public sector organ-isations.”
Greg Hamilton from the Can-terbury DHB said he was “de-lighted with the results.”
David Meates, CEO of Can-terbury DHB said: “This is just brilliant to see the hard evidence being brought to life.”
The above analysis only takes into account one of a number of benefits (hospitalisation) which result from improving a home’s insulation. There are other con-siderable benefits to this pro-gramme including:
Hospital benefits after the first 12 months – a single intervention has a 40-year life span taking into
account the life of the insulation; benefits to partners, children and others living in the same dwell-ing; benefits to future occupants; reduction in other primary and community services required for intensive post-discharge rehabili-tation; reduction in absenteeism from work/school for all home occupants due to improved over-all health; people living in their own homes with better wellbeing and feeling safer; and empower-ment through improved physi-cal health, mental health and/or an improved general state of mind/well-being; establishment of other successful working rela-tionships with a range of organ-isations, with a focus to assist vulnerable families.
To date, EECA has provided approximately $450m worth of subsidies for insulation nation-wide through their programmes, including Warm Up New Zea-land.
The Healthy Home Programme analysis shows the need to con-tinue with programmes such as these, particularly when EECA and CEA through their own sur-veys, have identified that there are still over 30,000 low income family homes in Canterbury alone, with inadequate or no in-sulation.
There have been other relevant New Zealand studies and discus-sions over the years around the need to improve housing quality and the associated health ben-efits.

The boundaries of Canterbury Plunket cover a lot of ground with volunteer groups and clinics based from Kaikoura to the rakaia river and from the alps to akaroa. Canterbury Plunket is the 4th fastest growing Plunket region in new Zealand and we are proud support the largest amount of volunteers in the country also.
Perceptions of Plunket usually centre on our government funded Well Child/Tamariki ora nurses that run drop in centres, clinics and provide home visits for new families. This is distinct from our Community services that make up almost a quarter of our total contacts a year. Community services are completely self-funded and reliant on volunteers.
While administered and lead at a Canterbury area level, these Community services are run for and by the communities they are based in, responding directly to community need.
Through Community services we offer the following services for rural families free or very cheap:

CHRISTCHURCH SCHOOL OF MUSIC - WE ARE BACK!
2015 was a really busy year for the Christchurch school of Music with lots of exciting things happening. In september the school celebrated its Diamond Jubilee – 60 years of providing excellent music tuition and ensemble opportunities to thousands of Cantabrians.
Other highlights of 2015 were working with G&a Creative to develop a new website, logo and brand for the school and the signing of a sponsorship arrangement with the University of Canterbury for our flagship orchestra, now known as the UC Christchurch Youth Orchestra.
Most exciting of all, in December, the school moved back home onto the site of the old Music Centre. with the support of the Catholic Diocese, the school is
housed in four portable buildings on the site adjacent to Catholic Cathedral College where all the instrumental and voice teaching takes place on a saturday morning and after school. The buildings will officially open on Friday 13 May with a celebration to say thank-you to all the organisations that have supported us to get to this stage. Many hours of work have gone into fitting out the new buildings with furniture, shelving, storage and teaching materials to ensure it is a friendly, welcoming and efficient place for the school to operate from. Particular thanks to Creative New Zealand and Rata Foundation who have provided financial support for the fit out
so along with its new branding, a new
user-friendly website and a great new place to call home the CsM is in good heart and enjoying a fantastic year of music making in 2016.
From pre-schoolers to septuagenarians, the CsM caters for a wide range of ages and musical styles offering opportunities for group or individual tuition in all instruments and an ensemble to suit everyone. with orchestras, choirs, jazz and rock bands, world music ensembles, wind ensembles and concert bands every taste is catered for. all ensembles take part in regular concerts including saturday soirees and the popular annual showcase Concert, which will be held this year in the beautiful Isaac Theatre Royal.

CsM also provides a comprehensive music education to participating primary schools via its Outreach programmes. with programmes offered in band, strings, recorder and ukulele in a wide range of Christchurch schools this is an area of the school, which has grown fast over the last few years.
another area that has grown rapidly over the last few years is the Late starters programme thanks to the great work of well-known Cantabrian and CsM alumni Mark walton. adults approaching retirement with more time on their hands have really enjoyed learning an instrument they never had the chance to play in their early years and join an
ensemble with other like-minded adults. short courses are offered in subjects
such as theory and aural perception and the school strives to meet the needs of our students and families in every way we can.
The Christchurch school of Music was established in 1955 by Robert Perks, MBE, to provide an education in instrumental music for primary schools. since then the school has extended it activities to include students of all ages and has also added vocal lessons and choral opportunities.
as well as our opening there are some important events coming up.
On 21 May, the UC Christchurch Youth Orchestra will present its first concert of the year under the baton of new
conductor, Helen Renaud at the Charles Luney auditorium at st Margaret’s College starting at 7.30pm. The concert is titled “Metamorphosis” and will feature works by sparke, Vaughan williams, Hindemith, Brahms and Rossini. Tickets are available through Eventfinda and there will also be door sales.
The CsM also has two Kidsfest events in the July holidays. The Composer is Dead by Lemony snicket is a really good fun, engaging concert that will teach the children all about the instruments of the orchestra and is being held on Tuesday 12 July at 11.30am and 1.00pm in the Charles Luney auditorium Tickets will be available through Dash ticketing from the beginning of June.
If you have always wanted to play an instrument but you’re not sure which one or you want to give your children a chance to have a go on all the instruments to help them decide, come along to our popular and free Try an Instrument Day on Tuesday 19 July from 11am-1pm in the Hall at Catholic Cathedral College. You will get to hear the experts playing the instruments and then have a go yourself. Heaps of fun guaranteed and a great opportunity to find out what instrument really appeals. we look forward to seeing you.
Please contact us via our website www.csm.org.nz and let us start you on a musical journey that will bring pleasure for a lifetime.

Running should be as easy as putting one foot in front of the other right? Anyone can run, but having good technique can make it feel so mucheasier.
good running technique will make your runs feel less tiring, reduce your risk of injury, and ultimately be more enjoyable. Muscle People Physiotherapists specialise in assessing and improving running technique whether you are a competitive runner or just running for fun.
start getting better now with these basic tips: POSTURE• Keep your head straightlook straight ahead of you, about 30-40 metres out in front and avoid looking down at your feet. looking down will create tension in your neck and shoulders.• shoulders back and downYour shoulders should be back and down not up by your ears. Keep them relaxed and avoid tensing them. don’t hunch over as this restricts breathing.• Keep your elbows at 90 degreesYour elbows should be bent at a 90 degree angle. Try to swing your arms forward and back, not across your body. This arm movement helps to propel you forward. Your hands should be relaxed, but don’t let them flop. Tight hands can cause tension all the way up to the back and shoulders.• solid coreFocus on keeping your core (trunk) firm, though not rigid, and straight and your
hips and shoulders level and relaxed. Keeping this position in your hips can help prevent low back and hip pain.
FOOT STRIKE AND LEG POSITION• don’t strike the ground too heavilygood running is light and quiet. You should land in the middle of your foot with a slightly bent knee. Whatever your weight, your feet should not slap loudly as they hit the ground. light steps are more efficient and cause less stress to the body and landing on the middle of your foot is the safest way to land for most recreational runners.
That’s the basics but there’s always more we can do to help. Try these:RUNFIT – The technical edge
Muscle People Physiotherapy & the YMCA gym have a running group in hagley Park – RunFit, led by a Physiotherapist and Canterbury competitive runner, and a Personal Trainer from the YMCA gym. RunFit focuses on running technique which is vital to improving speed, reducing injuries and making running more enjoyable for both regular runners and the beginner. RunFit is ideal for regular runners who are looking to challenge themselves, as well as the beginning runner who wants to start with good technique and the guidance of professionals.
diane and Celia have recently completed a RunFit programme had this to say:
diane, from st Martins “i’ve had
three calf injuries in the last 18 months and i wanted to make sure my running technique wasn’t contributing to that. over the course of the RunFit programme i improved my technique, got faster and i’m injury free. My training plan is on track for my first marathon in June.”
Celia, works in sydenham, “RunFit is the perfect combination of running drills, core strength and running and i enjoyed the variety. The core strength training has helped with my tennis and posture and i’ve learnt a lot about running form to help with training in my solo sessions. The physiotherapist and personal trainer are fantastic and work really well together, their on-hand knowledge is invaluable. The small group environment is very encouraging and works for all abilities. i highly recommend RunFit - in fact i’ve just signed up for more!”

Invest your hard-earned money with confidence: this townhouse ticks all the boxes for great real estate. Start with the security of permanent materials – clad in
timeless brick with aluminium joinery, this is a home that will retain its classic good looks with the minimum of maintenance.
Add in good proportions that will suit many – three light, bright bedrooms (master with en suite bathroom) and a separate lounge adjacent to the open-plan kitchen and dining area will appeal to families, couples or investors. An aspect that ensures the home soaks up sunlight throughout the day and an easy flow from indoor living spaces to the sunny and secure garden will keep entertainers, children and pets equally happy. The convenience of a double internal-access garage plus additional off-street parking adds further practical appeal.
A very sought-after location underpins the value of this investment: handy to schools and shops, family-friendly and standing on solid TC1 land. Presented in immaculate condition, this is a home you can move straight into or rent out from day one, but astute buyers will realise there is plenty of potential here for those wanting to enhance the property and further capitalise on their investment.
The vendors have already purchased their next property so 2/57 Withells Road is very definitely for sale on or before auction day.
