Call for police station to stay open longer Sophie Cornish A CALL is being made for the New Brighton Police Station to be open on Saturdays. The Coastal-Burwood Communtiy Board has asked police chiefs to open the Seaview Rd station on Saturday morning. The move is being backed by New Brighton Business and Landowners Association’s Paul Lonsdale. “There are concerns by businesses that there has been an increase of shop theft lately and we have been in talks with police on how to mitigate those issues and find solutions,” he said. Community board member and city councillor David East said police also needed to consider opening longer on weekdays than its current 9am-4pm. City councillor Glenn Livingstone said with the new beachside playground and salt water hot pools, increased police presence in the area would be beneficial. “Having them on site would make a lot more sense.” Currently police are required to come from Papanui for call-outs to eastern suburbs during the weekends.

Inside

FROM THE EDITOR’S DESK NEW BRIGHTON people want the police station in Seaview Rd to be open at the weekends (see page 1). And in my mind, there’s no reason why it shouldn’t. New Brighton and surrounding seaside suburbs are an area in their own right; different to other Christchurch suburbs which roll into each other. Brighton people have always been very community-minded and the Pages Rd bridge acts like a border of sorts. The Brighton police station used to be open on the weekends (from memory) and local police dealt with local problems. But centralisation, decentralisation, and other ‘isations’ as different police administrations changed over the years has seen the station become a fort, where messages are left at the gate, and if there’s any troops inside they might be called out to fight the good fight. – Barry Clarke

News Still no solution over midge problem wastewater plant. Nearby residents say they have had enough of putting up with midges over the years. But a veil of silence remains from the city council about what has emerged from the August 7 meeting. Community board member Linda Stewart said her solution – adding UV protection – was discussed but won’t elaborate on other possibilities.

Fashion By Sophie Cornish A SOLUTION has still not been found to eradicate Bromley’s midge plague. A meeting was held on August 7 between city council staff and Coastal-Burwood Community Board members aimed at finding a solution. The city council has spent $800,000 over two years unsuccessfully trying to fix the midge problem from the

City councillor Glenn Livingstone refused to discuss the matter with Pegasus Post, saying: “It’s a complex matter and not easily resolved and it’s better if we assemble as much information as possible before putting it out there.” Ms Stewart said her solution would work. “This should’ve been put in place 20 years ago.” She said in the late 1990s, the

South New Brighton Residents’ Association fought hard for UV protection. But city council staff said it would only be added if needed. The cost has now increased from less than $5 million in the late 1990s to an estimated $23 million, she said. But Ms Stewart said UV protection takes time, time residents don’t have with warmer weather around the corner.

Waitakiri School bake sale collars $607 for SPCA PARENTS AND children at Waitakiri School raised more than $600 for abused and neglected animals. The annual SPCA cupcake day took place on August 14. An enormous $2 million has been raised since the day first came about in 2009. People are encouraged to fundraise by baking and selling cupcakes in their schools and workplaces. Pupils from Waitakiri School got involved this year by selling and buying baked goods during morning tea and lunchtime. Along with a bed and food collection, $607 was collected and donated to the SPCA.

Bus stops at Palms to double By Julia Evans BUS STOPS outside The Palms Shopping Centre are set to double in size to accommodate the number of passengers in the area. The city council is seeking feedback on the plan that will see a suburban bus interchange be put in outside the mall – similar to the mega stop outside Northlands Shopping Centre. Although not to the same scale. Two bus stops are set to be upgraded, one on Shirley Rd adjacent to Shirley Intermediate School. The second is on New Brighton Rd outside the south end of the mall. The proposal is to extend the painted on road bus stops to accommodate two buses at the same time. City council staff said the bus routes that service the area are high frequency which often results in two buses attending the stop simultaneously. “As each stop currently only caters for one bus when a second bus arrives it may overhang the bus stop and can obstruct traffic,” they said.

Smoke alarms need to stay on the ceilings

Call for nominations for road trauma awards

By Mark Thomas - Specialist fire investigator WE HAD a fatal fire in Christchurch last week. So it was not the best week in our office. Part of what we do is to constantly strive to prevent such things happening by ensuring people have smoke alarms and escape plans. In the tragic loss in Cashel St (right) there were some smoke alarms. They were correctly installed but we don’t know if they had been maintained. The last one, still sounding when firefighters entered, was in the bedroom where the occupant was found. But this one wasn’t on the ceiling where the backing plate remained. It had been brought down too low to give adequate warning. Had the alarm just been left on the ceiling, at the highest point in the room, there’s a chance the victim would have had time to escape. Such a little thing! As always there were kitchen

ORGANISATIONS and people who deal with road accidents will be recognised for their work. The Canterbury Road Trauma Awards will be held at the Road Accident Remembrance Day at North Hagley Park on Saturday, November 4. Nominations for the awards are now being called for. Road Traffic Accident Trauma Charitable Trust spokeswoman, Sarah Dean, said the effects of road trauma extends far beyond the victims involved in the initial incident. The awards are seen as recognition and acknowledgement of this, she said. There are three award categories, Canterbury road trauma award for public service, trauma prevention and community service. The public service award will be for outstanding individuals, teams or organisations, who will receive recognition for their service and contribution to the duty of care for those affected by road trauma. This award is open to first responders, industry

fires last week. At two of the four events, people ended up needing ambulance attention for smoke inhalation. Nearly always this is because they have left the kitchen and the cooking unattended and returned to fire and smoke. Then they desperately try to fix a situation that is beyond them. Stay in the kitchen! Most cooking fires will be controllable but only if you’re there when they start. There was a slightly odd fire cause in Woolston on August 12 where a low sun through the window reflected off a magnifying mirror causing curtains to start smoking. This happens occasionally. However, it’s one of those things that most of us would never consider.

CBHS to defend UC title By Andrew King

SEMIS: Shirley Boys’ High will take on Cashmere High in the Thompson Trophy semifinal tonight at 5.45pm in Cashmere.

Shirley Boys go into Thompson Trophy semi as the underdog By Sophie Cornish SHIRLEY BOYS’ High School’s senior basketball team will face an uphill battle going into the Thompson Trophy semi-final against Cashmere High tonight. Shirley made the semi-final after a hard fought 94-84 win over Ashburton College last week. Cashmere beat Shirley, also known as ‘The Spartans’, 91-53 in round three of the competition, handing Shirley one of only three losses this season. That gives them the underdog status as they head to Cashmere

for the 5.45pm game, Shirley coach Scott Howell said. Good decisions and limiting their mistakes will be key factors in beating the stacked Cashmere side, Howell said. Shirley captain and standout player Sean Kelly will lead the team in the semi-final clash, with one goal ticked off for the year by making the semis. Howell believes this year’s team is very strong and has a good chance of making the final. They are looking forward to pursuing their next goal of qualifying for the national

tournament at the South Island tournament in Dunedin from September 6-9. Cashmere coach Ben Sheat said it was vital to stick to their structure and continue to control the defensive end if the team is to beat Shirley. “Lots of players have contributed in different ways to the group [this season] but Connor Mclaughlin, Oki Tilaia and Tom Russ-Hofmans have been outstanding,” he said. Cashmere beat Christchurch Boys’ High 99-51 last week to make the semi-final.

CHRISTCHURCH Boys’ High will look to defend their UC Championship title against Timaru Boys’ High on Saturday. They are in the final after a tough, come-from-behind battle against Nelson College, which required the depth off the bench to get them home 40-34 after trailing 29-12 at halftime. The last time CBHS met Timaru was in round three, with CBHS winning 22-17. Starting fullback Rico Syme, who is a recent addition to the first XV due to injuries, slotted into first-five in the second half

against Nelson and provided a few moments of magic to help the team get home. The final will be played at CBHS’s Straven Rd ground. CBHS have made a bit of a habit of going behind and then making a comeback, but they will look to correct that on Saturday. Timaru made the final after a solid 24-10 over Christ’s College in Timaru. Meanwhile, St Bede’s will play Marlborough Boys’ College in the bowl final after beating Shirley Boys’ High 36-33, while St Andrew’s missed out on a spot in the plate final after a 5714 defeat to Waimea Combined.

Girls’ High pull off three-peat By Andrew King CHRISTCHURCH Girls’ High are the undisputed champions of girls rugby in the city after clinching their third consecutive UC Cup title on Wednesday. The girls made short work of Burnside-Rangi 36-7, running in six tries on the Ilam Fields to record their second consecutive undefeated season in the UC Cup. Their last loss was against Motueka Girls’ High in the Crusader regional playoff last year. Coach Jaime Livingstone said it was rewarding to see

them enjoying their success especially for the year 13s who have been part of all three title victories. They will now look to add a national title to the cabinet, taking on Southland Girls’ High on Saturday for the South Island title. A win will qualify them for the national top four tournament in Palmerston North.

FERRYMEAD MITRE 10 MEGA

TRADE CENTRE, DIY More products, faster service Ferrymead’s popular Mitre 10 MEGA has expanded, with a spacious, new facility opening this week for its trade and DIY customers, and a new Landscaping Zone installed. Located right next door to the current drive-thru facility, the new outlet replaces the former Trade drive-thru, which has been closed so earthquake repairs can be undertaken. This will be reopened at a later date as a drive-thru and storage area. The culmination of almost four years’ work, which involved a complete fit-out to an existing building, the new 3200sqm premises and drive-thru facility is 50 per cent larger than the current drivethru, providing a much greater space for product display as well as easier and quicker access for tradespeople and DIY customers to purchase supplies. Trade manager John Barltrop says the new space also makes it easier for Mitre 10 team members to process orders efficiently during busy periods, while continuing to provide a high level of service for customers. The space features wide aisles with an extensive range of framing and finishing timbers, along with all the common wallboards and fixings. The other outstanding feature of Mitre 10 MEGA Ferrymead’s new site is the outdoor Timber Yard and Landscaping Zone, covering a further 7000sqm. This new area presents an extensive range of Landscaping supplies and incorporates 19 bulk bins, stocking a wide range of product including compost, lawn mix, bark, aggregates and decorative stone, giving professional landscapers and DIY customers plenty of options for their home and property improvement projects. Trailers are available free of charge to transport landscaping purchases.

The Principal’s Desk Towards the future

Mark Bell He was a wonderful ambassador for our school, always championing us to the wider community. Mark believed in our school, and believed in our students, always encouraging them to shoot for the stars and have pride in themselves. It is fair to say he enriched the lives of many students and staff in his time at Mairehau High School.

To accommodate roll growth, a multimillion dollar building project is in the planning stage to transform Mairehau High School, and ensure secondary school co-educational school provision in the East of Christchurch. The school is about to enter the design stage. At the moment, we are waiting on key compliance reports to be completed before building can take place.

Christchurch East Secondary Schools All Christchurch East Secondary Schools are passionate about improving achievement and learning outcomes for all. Mairehau High School is connecting and building relationships with Te Ara Tūhura, a cluster of Primary and Early Childhood schools in the East. This cluster is focused on improved outcomes for all our learners, in each of our schools. our school is also very keen to continue to foster strong relationships with our local tertiary institutions such as the university of Canterbury, Ara, Southern Institute of Technology, and Lincoln university. I am confident in working with other East Christchurch Secondary schools and education providers on the future and quality of Teaching and Learning for our learners.

Acknowledgement I take this opportunity to acknowledge Mr Mark Bell ( former Deputy Principal) and to congratulate and wish him all the very best in his new role as an Education Review Evaluator. Mark has contributed significantly to Mairehau High School and we know that he will make a huge impact in making a positive difference to many other schools in his new position. Harry Romana Principal

It was with great sadness, but with our very best wishes, that we farewelled Mark at the end of Term 2. Mark had been at Mairehau High School for over 14 years, and was a highly respected and much beloved member of our school community.

Mark was welcomed to the Education Review office in a dignified and moving ceremony in Dunedin during the school holidays, with Harry Romana, the Principal, and Rebecca Swanson, the Assistant Principal, travelling to support him on behalf of the school. We wish him all the best in his new position at ERo. Kia kaha, Mr Bell. go well!

It is our pleasure to announce that after a rigorous recruiting process, Ms Siobhan Murphy has been appointed to the position of Deputy Principal to Mairehau High School. Siobhan joins our staff in Term 4 as Deputy Principal from Aranui High School, where she was Assistant Principal in 2016. Siobhan’s association with Aranui High School began in 1989 when she accepted a Homeroom position, teaching a junior class all their compulsory subjects, except PE. Further roles y ph Siobhan Mur at Aranui included HoD Social Sciences, Dean, Tutor and more recently, the School garden’s chief gnome. Siobhan is very much looking forward to reconnecting with ex-colleagues and students from Aranui who are now at Mairehau High School. Siobhan lives in Mairehau with her husband Andrew. Together they have two children studying at university who they catch up with during holidays and hear from when the fridge in their flat needs refilling. During winter the whole family enjoys spending time together at Broken River Ski field. This year Siobhan has embarked on a Masters degree as well as learning Te Reo (Māori Language) which means her garden has been left to grow wild and due to the lack of exercise, her dog Alfie is growing larger and larger. Focussing on learning so intensely, Siobhan has found herself “walking in her students’ shoes” and she realises that being a student in 2017 can be very challenging and exciting at the same time. The range of learning opportunities at Mairehau High School encouraging passion and offering individual challenges to both students and staff are what excites Siobhan most about joining us here. Whaowhia te kete mātauranga (Fill the basket of knowledge)

We were fortunate to have two of our students stand to represent us this year. We had Phoenix Neilson represent us in the Senior Māori section, and La Bella Currin-Waru represent us in the Senior English section. It was the first time both students had ever stood to represent at Ngā Manu Kōrero and did so in front of all of the competing schools in both the Canterbury and West Coast regions. Just getting to this point was an achievement in itself, not to mention that both of our representative students are in Year 11 and were standing up against Year 12 and 13 students from the other competing schools.

Bella Currin-Waru

Both students did a great job and represented our school with pride. At the end of both speeches our newly established kapahaka group, under the reins of our new kapahaka tutor Miss Satriani Reihana, stood and performed our recently composed Mairehau High School haka for the first time in a public arena, with great passion. A lot of milestones were achieved that day. Whaea Dayna

Hagley Dance Company on the 10th of August Hagley Dance Company came to our school to run a 90 minute work shop. This was offered to all year 11 - 13 Performing Arts students. It began with a performance by the Dance Company of a Maori inspired contemporary piece which was incredibly moving. They then ran a full muscle and bone warm up and then everyone split into groups to learn some contemporary choreography. This was great for dancers of all levels and everyone came away with a good experience. Dance and Performing Arts at Mairehau High School is thriving and continually moving forward!

We recently had a visit from Canterbury university who delivered interactive lessons to all Year 9 and Year 10 students in FLT (Flexible Learning Time). Students learnt about water purification in developing countries and about the many economic and practical issues which impact upon this. our students created water filters in groups and were given budgets and materials in accordance with the nation they were allocated. our Year 9 students also have a Life Skills class which is covered in FLT. Some of the topics covered have been gardening, how to change a car tyre, meditation, driver education, cooking from a mystery food box and problem solving. Flexible Learning Time (or FLT) enables our students in Year 9 and 10 to engage in personalised, crosscurricular and real-life learning opportunities for 3 hours each week. The emphasis is on our students choosing and directing their own learning journey with the support of their teaching team. Most recently our Year 10s worked on projects that might contribute to their future career selection whilst our Year 9s worked on projects that involved them learning invaluable life skills, though generally not on a school curriculum. Both projects involved students embracing new experiences and extending their knowledge, skills and thinking.

Learning to make water purifiers

Smokefree Rockquest 2017 Rockquest was founded by two music teachers in 1988 (glenn Common and Pete Rainey) and since then there have been countless successes in its 29-year history such as Bic Runga, Anika Moa, Nesian Mystik and our very own Mairehau High School student band Falter, who were the National winners in 2003. This year we had four entries with two groups and two soloists carrying on our proud tradition. Entrants have to write and perform original music.

Top Student Excellence Award During the recent term break, Year 11 Student Cody McCallum attended the Blue Light Youth Course run at the Burnham Military Camp. Cody did extremely well on this and was awarded the Top Student Excellence Award out of 30 students who were on the course. Cody has a definite career pathway in place – and we hope to see Cody in a police officer’s uniform in the next few years.

FLT (Flexible Learning Time)

At the end of Term 2, Mairehau High School was represented at Ngā Manu Kōrero - our regional Māori speech competition for both the Canterbury and West Coast regions, for the first time in 6 years.

We would like to congratulate our Deputy Principal, Mark Bell, on his appointment to a position at the Education Review office.

Mairehau High School has implemented Modern Learning Practices through the schools Year 9 and Year 10 flexible learning environment initiative this year. our school continues to implement innovative and creative strategies to support and enhance school improvement and student achievement.

Encouraging ExcEllEncE in our community

Congratulations

Teachers within our school are leading and developing key initiatives which will provide students with the skills, capabilities and fluency to enable them to be successful life-long learners in a digital world. In our school, we use our head, heart and hands which enable us to describe the critical thinking student who is numerate and literate; a student who can take responsibility for their own learning and manage themselves. The students who pass through our school gates, learn in our classrooms, and access technology through our wireless internet provision, will be well set in the future to access tertiary or employment opportunities.

What causes OOS? The Department of Labour states: “One of the favourable explanations for OOS is that it is caused by muscles being held tense or tight for too long.’’

These conditions may be caused by repetitive tasks, forceful exertions, vibrations, mechanical compression, or sustained or awkward positions. The shorter and tenser the muscle, the harder it pulls on the places it attaches to (e.g. the bone). When this happens in the forearm the pull at those attachments and tendons causes irritation and inflammation of those areas. This will be noticed as pain in the elbow and wrist. When this happens in the neck and shoulder area, it will be noticed as local pain, stiffness and sometimes headaches. The nerves run right through the muscles. Tension on the muscles causes pressure on the nerves. As the muscles shorten, the nerves running through them have a tendency to both shorten and slide less well. This causes the nerves to radiate pain throughout the arm. Triggerpoints are areas in your muscles, where a few muscle fibres have contracted

FOCUS ON HEALTH Supporting Your Time Honoured Remedy Bowel & Digestive Function Helps Prevent Disease

Keeping your digestive system and bowels functioning efficiently is definitely an important step in obtaining and maintaining good long term health. It is most important to keep the whole digestive and elimination systems of the body working efficiently. Many diseases have been linked with micro-organisms (virus) or a bacterial component. We know that when the digestive system and bowel function are poor we have many more health problems. These include arthritis, digestive problems like reflux and stomach pain, bladder infections, chronic skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis and rashes, poor eyesight, pain and inflammation, tumors and a weakened immune system just to name a few. Nature’s Sunshine LBS II contains a highly effective blend of natural herbs to support the whole digestive system and it is especially effective at cleansing the lower bowel and intestinal tract. It is commonly used for arthritis, constipation, diarrhea, digestive problems, dry stool, fever, colds and influenza, flatulence, gallstones, gout, skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis, urinary infections, liver dysfunction, Candida, weakened immune function and for people who want to keep their health as good as possible. The herbs in LBS II help stimulate the production of digestive fluids and bile for efficient digestion. This alone may help prevent many diseases as a properly working digestive system will itself neutralise many disease causing organisms. LBS II also stimulates peristaltic action of the colon effectively cleansing the colon of any accumulated build-ups of waste material. It also relaxes abdominal cramping and spasms, enhances liver function, purifies the blood, neutralizes acidic conditions, helps destroy intestinal parasites and worms, and fights infection. Keeping your digestive system and bowels functioning efficiently is definitely an important step in obtaining and maintaining good long term health. LBS II and further information is available from the Natural Health Advisers at Marshall’s Health & Natural Therapy, 110 Seaview Road, New Brighton, Phone: 388-5757. We are Always Happy to Help!

According to a country Doctor “D.C. Jarvis” from Vermont in the USA cider vinegar and honey (CV & H) can be an important part of a long healthy life. Dr. Jarvis noted Vermonters who regularly consumed cider vinegar and honey had excellent health with many putting in a vigorous day’s work on the farm even when well into their eighties. Dr. Jarvis found the effects of cider vinegar and honey on arthritis can be remarkable with many patients reporting almost total relief after taking a course. As well as a general tonic Dr. Jarvis found regular administration of cider vinegar and honey at the onset of complaints such as the common cold, sinusitis, asthmatic attacks, hay fever, and childhood diseases such as

chicken pox and measles, was accompanied by an improvement in the condition with symptoms either disappearing, or the conditions were extremely mild and soon over. Apple cider vinegar contains all the goodness of the apple in a form that is readily accepted by the body. Scientists have found over 90 different substances in ACV, among them 20 important trace elements, minerals, essential enzymes, a number of different acids including malic acid, amino acids and roughage in the form of potash and pectin. A scientific study at the Shizuka University in Japan has proven ACV to have potent antioxidant benefits (It can destroy free radicals, which are a major factor in ageing.) and also the ACV can

break down cholesterol formations in the blood vessels. ACV and H is a powerful tonic that also promotes digestion, assimilation of nutrients and elimination of waste, and helps neutralize any toxic substances that enter the body. It is important to note not all cider vinegar is made in the traditional way and results are likely to prove disappointing with some other vinegars. Further information is available from the Natural Health Advisers at Marshall’s Health & Natural Therapy, 110 Seaview Road, New Brighton, Phone: 388-5757. We are Always Happy to Help!

McKenzie Lifestyle Village McKenzie Lifestyle Village is in the final stages of completion. There are still great sites available and we also have a number of affordable villas ready for immediate occupation. Our beautiful Leisure Centre is available and the pools, gymnasium and library and lounge area are in use daily. Outside, the bowling green is very popular along with Petanque, Mini-golf and Table Bowls. The residents enjoy an enviable resort style lifestyle. It is also surprisingly affordable. A former Christchurch resident, Judith, says “We couldn’t have all this for what we are paying if we were still in Christchurch.” Another resident, David, says “my wife and

I have never been so well off as we are now we moved to McKenzie Lifestyle Village.” There are fuller testimonials on the village homepage at mlv.co.nz. Geraldine is a great little town with a very pleasant microclimate. There is plenty to do in and around the town with art galleries, theatre and cinema, interesting shops and boutiques, two museums and a wide range of good places to eat. For the more adventurous there are river and forest walks nearby, opportunities for biking and a choice of two local golf clubs. For more information you can talk to David Connolly about this on 0800 84 55 24.

REAL ESTATE Live an exceptional lifestyle 84 Harts Creek Lane, Clearwater, Harewood

Elegant and intelligent design marks this as a home for an exceptional contemporary lifestyle. Designed by Architects Plus and built in 2013, it offers the peace of mind that comes with post-earthquake construction, including RibRaft foundation and Celcrete cladding. Occupying a prime setting, with lake and golf course views, this tranquil retreat is just minutes from amenities and a short stroll from coffee at Clearwater Resort. Extensive glazing pulls light and views into the home, and sliders in the openplan living ensure seamless flow to a choice of enticing outdoor entertaining spaces. Equipped with a six-burner gas cooktop, butler’s pantry and island bench, the kitchen will satisfy the most exacting requirements, while a spacious dining and casual sitting area, plus additional separate lounge (with gas fire), offer comfort and flexibility. Sumptuous fittings in the master

bedroom, ensuite and WIR add everyday luxury, while an additional downstairs bedroom with ensuite is ideal for guests. Three more double bedrooms (or an office/ den option with glorious views to the mountains) share a smart family bathroom with under-tile heating. Double internalaccess garaging plus a generous storage bay, beautifully landscaped grounds and a suite of high-spec fittings complete this impeccable home. Presented in immaculate condition, this property invites you to enjoy exceptional living. The owners have committed to a new building project and must sell their muchloved home - don’t miss the opportunity to make it yours. To arrange a private viewing, give me a call today Deb Harvey of Harcourts Gold Papanui (Licensed Agent REAA 2008) on 352 6166 or mobile 027 220 6565

Emma’s back! THAT’S right folks, Emma Palaamo has returned to the Richmond Club Bistro, and this time she is running it! Emma last worked at the Club when her parents Bev and Steve Palaamo were running the Bistro and Restaurant pre-EQ. Unsure of what she wanted to do when she left school Emma decided to attend university where she earned a degree in English and Psychology. “I’ve wondered if I’d ever use my degree, but I love being in the kitchen. Cooking’s in my blood. It’s what I’m used to,” said Emma. Largely trained by her father, Emma said she was nervous when she was initially offered running the Bistro. “My parents have such a good reputation and I don’t want to let Dad down. The reaction to my menu and cooking has been great, and regular members are very happy to see me back.” With her first few weeks spent gauging what diners wanted, Emma is confident she has streamlined the menu to provide a selection to satisfy everyone. “I’ve listened to what they want and have taken heed. by bringing back the old with new. I’m also doing blackboard specials and two course specials, as well as introducing a Kids’ menu.” The Club Bistro is open for LUNCH Tuesday to Sunday (Brunch), for DINNER Wednesday to Sunday and is also available for private functions.

Enrolling now for 2018 Principal’s Report Kia ora koutou. Talofa. Kia Orana. Malo e lelei. Bula. Fakaalofa atu. Namaste and Kumusta. Greetings to our Community. Last year Linwood College and a group based on the East Christchurch community centres undertook a major community consultation about our school. This opportunity to be involved in the vision for the redevelopment of Linwood College was whole-heartedly embraced by the community. Over 1300 people responded with many of these responses being face-to-face conversations. A variety of themes arose out of these conversations with the dominant being that: Linwood College should nurture personal excellence by providing varied opportunities to meet individual needs. The school should foster a ‘love to learn’ culture that creates high levels of achievement and success in ways that are accessible for all. This theme drives everything that we do and at present it is being applied to how our students select their senior

Our own LC experience, that Last month the Samoan National Fagasa speech of our families and whãnau and formal competition was held in Woolston at the EFKS church. Congratulations to Vai Mariner - 1st equal research, all agree that for many for Year 13, Titi Ma Sun - 4th for Year 13 and Gloria teenagers the process of selecting Su'a - 2nd for Year 11. This was an outstanding subjects becomes more personally result especially considering that they were up important and meaningful when part against students from the Auckland and Wellington of considering wider career pathways. regions! This is why LC now calls our Years 7-10 Vai Mariner- 1st equal for Year 13 curriculum the ‘Learning Pathway’ and Photo provided by Ana Mulipola Years 11-13 the ‘Career Pathway’. Yes, education is full of jargon but in this Gateway to our Future case, there actually are some helpful phrases that enhance understanding. Two such terms are Backward This year in ‘Gateway’ Linwood College students have work experience in a wide Mapping and UBD, Understanding range of industries and have been gaining some valuable skills. by Design. A useful overall summary sentence is, “Start with the end in mind and work backwards.” To support this way of thinking we have redesigned the Career Pathways booklet and subsequent processes to link school subject choices with pathwayunderstanding. It is about positioning teenagers to be future-focussed: thinking ahead, playing to their First Aid Health and Fitness strengths and accepting challenges. Ngã mihi nui to our community as the positive activity of the year continues. I am always keen to meet people if any member of the community wishes to talk to me about anything. My door is open.

Emerging Leaders

As the newly appointed Performing Arts teacher, when I first came to Linwood College I was quick to see the wonderful talent that our school had and sought a musical which our students and families would enjoy. Settling on a Maverick Musical called, ‘Wolfstock’ (written by Mary McMahan with music by Donald Woodward), this was the perfect challenge for our students.

With time and practice the students thrived in this environment and the end product was exciting, funny and dynamic. I am exceptionally proud of my students and the effort that they put in. To all the parents who transported, waited, got up super early and gathered costumes - thank you so much! We could not have done this without your support. I can't wait for the next one. Mrs Boyce-Da Cruz

In early July, selected students were given the opportunity to attend the annual Christ’s College Emerging Leaders’ Conference, along with representatives from many Canterbury schools. At this conference many inspirational speakers told their own unique stories and passed on quintessential advice for

aspiring young leaders. Callum Lawson, said that the day was an inspiration. His favourite message was from the speaker Joel Bouzaid, that leadership is something that you can own, something that you can bend and mould to suit your traits and strengths, so that you can be the leader you hope to be.
