Netball win to Aranui – p11

Student puts Christchurch on map – p3

BY GABRIELLE STUART

The Eastern Recreation and Sport Centre is likely to be built on the former QE II site.

The Pegasus Post canvassed Bur-wood-Pegasus Community Board members and ward councillors, and they all said they would vote in support of the site next week.

The site will then be put to the city council on September 11, for final approval.

The QE II location was chosen as first preference by a Community Advisory Group appointed to look at the sites in detail.

Their second preference was Rawhiti Domain, while Burwood Park and New Brighton were ranked third equal.

The group included representatives from the community board and eight community and sports groups involved in the complex.

Group spokesman Robert Jugo-vac said the QE II site rated highly for its accessibility, likelihood to enable wide participation, impact on social well-being, and the area available which will allow the facil-ity to grow over time.

A geotechnical survey and report will need to be done on the site be-fore the plans for the building can be approved.

The site suffered bad liquefaction from the February 2011 earthquake and the QE II complex was eventu-ally demolished.

But city councillor David East said the same thing would need to be done for most sites in the east.

The advisory group is still work-ing on a report outlining what they would like to see included in the complex. That is likely to be re-leased next month.

ANOTHER RESCUE AND REHOME

McMaster & Heap

&McMaster HeapVeterinary practice

Recently a young, white female mini lop rabbit was dropped off at the clinic, with a mangled right hind leg. She was so skinny and little weighing only 66 grams.She had been found up someone’s driveway obviously lost. She was friendly and despite her injuries, she was willing to eat and hop around.

In true McMaster & Heap style, we decided it would be in the rabbits’ best interests to hospitalise her and care for her until an owner came forward. We checked for a microchip. She was advertised with Pets on the Net and we contacted the SPCA. She appeared to be doing everyday things normally. We radiographed her sore hind leg and found she had a displaced proximal tibial fracture that wasn’t going to heal on its own. We attempted to splint the limb but quickly found out that splints slip off very quickly.

After a week, when no-one had contacted us, we decided we must make a difference for this rabbit. Our nurse Kim, was very keen to keep her and the only surgical option available to us was amputation. We researched up amputating a hindleg and in most cases rabbits do better than removing a foreleg. Young rabbits seem to rehabilitate better and weight management is critical for success. A fat rabbit won’t ambulate as easily. Some potential problems can be hyper-extension or arthritis of the carpal ( wrist) joints in the frontlegs, loss of support on one side leading to dermatitis and infection of the opposite hindleg pads and obesity. Amputation is a good, safe option for severe bone fractures or hip dislocations, bone or soft tissue cancers, infection of the bone, severed tendon or ligament injuries.

Our little bunny was prepared for her big day in theatre. The anaesthetic can often be more risky than the procedure itself. We use a combination of anaesthetic and pain relief drugs given into the muscle and then the rabbit wears a face mask during the surgery, breathing in oxygen and anaesthetic gases. Keeping rabbits warm and their body temperature up is critical and this patient was severely underweight, making it harder to retain body heat. We injected warmed fluids under her skin, she lay on a heat pad and had hotties all around her, plus she was wrapped in wool. I amputated her leg high up, proximal femur region, as if you leave a long stump, they develop ulcers or bang the stump against objects as they walk.

This wee rabbit was a real trouper throughout the surgery maintaining a good heart rate and blood pressure. She woke up quickly, eating within 30 minutes and moving around her cage amazingly. She is recuperating excellently with Kim at home and appears to have no difficulties moving around.

For us it is rewarding being able to save “any life” whether it’s a client’s pet, our own furry friends or a stray animal bought into us. None of us should ignore an animal needing help, comfort or treatment. That’s where our team of health professionals are outstanding as they are all compassionate, kind, dedicated and willing to go that extra mile. They are also keen to add to their ever growing animal families to save a life. Thanks Kim!!

The New Brighton Surf Life Saving Club has pulled back from investing in heated saltwater pools, because of un-certainty over the project.

The club plans to rebuild and ex-pand its club rooms within the next three years, and expressed interest ear-lier this year in working with the city council to combine the rebuild with a New Brighton Legacy Project heated pool complex.

But club president James Gaskell said the club had gone ahead with its own plans, because of uncertainty from the city council.

“As a surf club we can’t sit on our hands, because our club is in need of repairs and we need to go ahead with that. So when it came to light that it was up in the air, we had to keep work-ing on our own plans.”

The city council announced last month it would not assign funding or explore plans for the project until op-tions for a private partnership to help fund it had been explored.

A call for expressions of interest from private investors is expected to be released in September.

Mr Gaskell said the club would still be open to speaking with the city council about the plans.

But he said plans for the hot pools would need to be confirmed before the

end of the year if the club was to have any part in them.

He said plans for the club rooms had already been drawn up.

“The next bill will be about $30,000 plus, to get an engineer involved. We’d be willing to walk away from the cost of the architect plans, but not from a bill that size. So we’d need to hear something soon.”

He believed hot pools would be a great thing for New Brighton.

But hiring out the club rooms was the main source of revenue for the club, and he said they could not risk attaching their plans to a “shaky” proj-ect.

“We would be open to talk and be involved if they can agree on plans, be-cause it would be a great thing for the community. But it needs to be ‘this will happen’, not ‘this might happen’.”

A city council spokeswoman said the expressions of interest process was likely to take about a month.

After the month, staff would need to evaluate the responses before they could report back to the city council.

Burwood-Pegasus Community Board chairwoman Andrea Cum-mings said the delays were frustrating.

But she said the plans could not be more specific, because the city council did not yet know what groups might be interested and wanted to remain open to ideas.

GEOGRAPHICALLY SKILLED: Shirley Boys’ High School head boy Nic Wilson has put Christchurch on the map, winning a silver medal in the Interna-tional Geography Olympiad in Poland. He travelled with a team of four New Zealand secondary school students to compete in Krakow, Poland, alongside students from more than 36 countries. The team finished ninth overall but claimed four individual medals, and won a scientific poster competition for their topic of redeveloping the Christchurch residential red zone.

So tell me about your vision for the Food Resilience Network?

It’s to create a patchwork of food production across the city, and the greater Christchurch re-gion. We’re really wanting to see much more localised food pro-duction.

I know this isn’t the first of this type of initiative you’ve been involved in. When did you first get involved in com-munity gardens?

Well, in the late 1990s I be-came a co-ordinator of the Or-ganic Garden City Trust, which had similar aims but the format was quite different. We had a lot to do with establishing gardens in primary schools, and basi-cally promoting the concept of Christchurch as an organic gar-den city.

I think the difference now is there is so much more public awareness. Back then Christ-church had 10 community gar-dens, and now there are almost 30 – and that’s not because of anything I’ve done, it’s just an indication of how much aware-ness of these issues is growing.

There is a lot more excitement about it now, too. The idea of taking control of our food sys-tem and developing a really rich food culture has really captured people’s imaginations.

I think the experience of the earthquakes also brought back to people the importance of having food in your garden, be-cause if the fridge goes off or the supermarket runs out of food where are you going to turn?

Gardens are obviously a pas-sion for you – where did that passion come from?

I don’t know where it came from, actually.

I remember at university liv-ing in a flat with a huge garden, and I wasn’t even aware of it. I’m kind of ashamed of that now, because now my first question is always where is the garden?

I did an organic growing

course at CPIT and I remem-ber being amazed that my corn seeds grew, because I had this idea it would be really difficult to convince them to sprout.

I was really lucky when I was a student to meet Bob Crowder, who was a lecturer at Lincoln, and he became a key mentor for me. It was a mixture of his en-thusiasm and inspiration, and the quite deeply-seated ideas I already had about the silliness of our economic systems. I always thought it was crazy that a lot of people can’t eat healthy food because they can’t afford it, yet

food literally grows on trees.I met Bob while working at

the St Martins supermarket, which was the first supermar-ket to have an organic section. I didn’t realise the significance of it then, but the owner of that store was very influential in the GE Free movement, and later I got into that world and I really, really loved it.

I know you worked in super-markets for a long time, bal-ancing it with your work for community groups and local government – did those things work well together?

Matt Morris is the co-ordinator of the Food Resilience Network, a group responsible for developing edible community gardens across the city. He spoke to Gabrielle Stuart about gardens, monasteries, beer and his love for supermarkets.

SOIL AND

HARDFILLDUMPING

It’s a funny thing, but I quite like supermarkets. I know I’m meant to say I hate supermar-kets and only shop at farmers markets.

Supermarkets are a fascinating environment. They’re like the centre of culture, like the An-cient Agora in Athens – it’s the modern marketplace.

As far as the local government stuff goes, I find it a fascinat-ing world as well. I was on the Shirley-Papanui Community Board for just one term, and I found the most rewarding thing for me was meeting such a lot of people who were working in charities and organisations on the ground, making the most amazing change in their com-munities.

Part of the reason I stopped was that I wanted to be more involved on the ground – but the main reason I stopped is that I got a full-time job at Canterbury Uni-versity working in sustainability, which was something I have al-ways been passionate about.

I’ve heard a rumour you’re about to finish the job at the university?

Yes, I’ve just resigned, so this is my last week working here. There’s a lot of work to do with the Food Resilience Network and that’s taking a lot of my time at the moment – we’ve got a cou-ple of big events coming up, in-cluding an expo at the Botanic Gardens.

I’m also in the process of start-ing my own business, called The Urban Monk, which is about bringing delicious foods to the people of Christchurch.

The Urban Monk is an inter-esting name. What inspired it?

I’ve been experimenting with new monasticism, which is a global movement about taking the best aspects of the monas-tery and bringing them into the world, so we don’t have to go and separate ourselves. I have spent some times in traditional monasteries as well and I really liked it, but decided that I need to remain active because there are some really important social issues that I would like to be in-volved in.

I’ve been involved in start-ing a monastery in South New Brighton, called the Monastery of Saints Sergius and Bacchus. It’s still very fledgling at the mo-ment, because we’re still working out the routine and the rule.

Essentially it’s an ordinary house – apart from being shaped like an octagon. Unfortunately, like many ordinary houses it has earthquake damage, so I’ll be out of it for four months pretty soon. I’ll be spending some time in Geraldine growing cabbages for sauerkraut, and also spending time with my parents, who are not very well.

So what is it like, to live in a modern monastery?

The point is to find peace and

equanimity for oneself, and to serve and help the world. So we do some of the traditional things – making candles, mak-ing bread, making champagne – all of those things and more. We have a weekly meeting for men who are interested in spiritual-ity, and it’s also like an education centre for sustainability.

I’ve been twice to Mt Athos in Greece, which is this great peninsula, very beautiful, dot-ted with about 20 monasteries. They’re all incredibly old and it’s a very peaceful, very earthy place. I loved it, but I still some-times need to go out for beer, and to stay in touch with the world.

Where did your interest in monasteries start?

Well, there is a photo of me as a kid at a medieval day, and everyone is there as princes and princesses and I’m dressed as a monk. When I was painting and printmaking I often used a monk motif. I don’t know where it came from, it’s just something in me.

For me it is the perfect anti-dote to the rampant consumer-ism of our culture. It’s about say-ing we don’t need all the junk we tend to collect, that just ends up in the landfill.

Years ago a friend showed me a picture, and told me about Mt Athos. He said monks were hauled up the side of cliffs in baskets, he said, “Matt, you’ve

got to go, you’d love it”, and he was right. I never got hauled up the side of a cliff in a fish-ing basket, but I did love being there.

So does being a modern monk mean you give up having a family?

No. New monasticism doesn’t mean no sex, and it doesn’t mean no family, or wandering around in robes. It’s more about finding a place of peace and integrity.

I have a partner, and we’re both involved in the movement.

Were you born and bred in Christchurch?

I was born in Invercargill, but we moved to Christchurch when I was one and I have lived here ever since.

Do you have a favourite place here?

I really like the area I grew up in, in St Martins, but I love being on the beach and I think New Brighton is a real gem – I think I may stay there for a while.

Looking forward, do you have any long-term goals you would still like to achieve?

At the moment I’m just fo-cused on putting one foot in front of another and seeing where it goes. There isn’t this end result I’d like to get to, be-cause I don’t really know where I’m headed.

This week I’m just really look-ing forward to the new episode of Doctor Who – I’m really ex-cited about that.

Community help is being sought to keep the lights on at the New Brigh-ton Project offices.

The group has just one more week to find a new power source for their temporary container office in the New Brighton Mall.

Since moving the office to the mall last year, the group has been supplied with free power by the Pierside Cafe and Bar.

But that will come to an end when the business is restructured next week.

New Brighton Project chairwoman Tracey Keen said options included running power through a generator or running cables to connect the of-fice to the electricity grid, but both were expensive.

“Our options are relatively limited in that we mostly run our projects through grants, and we haven’t ap-plied for funding to cover power. So we just don’t have enough to cover it.”

She said the group was applying for funding, but most annual community grants had already been allocated.

Power is used for computers, a printer, an electric jug and a fridge at the office, as well as a bouncy castle and several stalls at the weekly com-munity market.

The group were warned in June that the arrangement would be com-ing to an end, but were given just over two weeks notice of the date it would cease.

Restaurant owner Tony Brooks said a new director would take over the running of the business next month.

Mr Brooks, who is also the founder

of the Strategic Urban Rejuvenation Force, said it had become too time consuming to manage the business himself.

While he does not plan to sell the business, he said that could change in the future.

He said providing free power was a temporary solution to help the group “get up on their feet again”.

“We were in a position to help, and we helped while we could.”

But with no way to monitor the power use, he said that could not con-tinue long term.

He said he would continue to sup-port the group as much as possible.

“We love what they do. Certainly over the last three and a half years those guys have provided some very valuable support to the community, and I absolutely support the work they do.”

Ms Keen said the timing was un-fortunate, but she was thankful for Mr Brooks’ help.

“We have had free power for 10 months, and that is incredibly gener-ous. We certainly do understand the need to restructure, so this is just the next step for us.”

She said that she would appreciate any ideas from the community about short or long-term ways to power the office.

She said that the group would ul-timately like to move to a permanent building, but that was not likely to happen for several years.

Canterbury rugby players Patrick Osborne and Richie Mo’unga took pupils from room 27 at Banks Avenue School through some teamwork drills using skipping ropes during a visit last week, as part of Canterbury rugby’s “Adopt a School” programme. The programme involves 16 schools, which will all receive three visits from players over the course of the season. The schools will also have the chance to take part in competitions during Canterbury home games, and in a march past at the game against Southland on September 28. Photos: Geoff Sloan

• Glenn LivingstonePreferred location: QE II

What always mat-tered to me was that the community owned the location. I did have a personal preference for QE II, but I have to remain open to all the options. My concern would be mainly around the ground conditions at QE II.• David EastPreferred location: No comment

There have been so many diverse opinions, and the idea was to let the community make a decision, they’ve made a decision and I’m happy to support. I don’t

believe giving personal opin-ions would be helpful at this point. The princi-pal things for me were land suitabil-ity and access

suitability. My only concern is the geotechnical analysis of the land, and that really does apply to all of the sites put forward.• Andrea CummingsPreferred location: QE II

I didn’t come into the process with a predeter-mined view, but I think the best site came out. QE II has been there and done that, and it has been proven to work. We know the transport works, we know the infrastructure works and we know it’s a location that works for the community.• Tim BakerPreferred location: QE II

I’ve always suspected from day one it would be back at QE II, because it always made sense. As far as transport and infrastructure goes, those are already in place, so it should be cost effective. That should balance any extra work it’ll need on the foundations.

• Tim SintesPreferred location: New Brighton

My feeling is I’m happy for QE II, but I think we’ve missed a huge opportunity for New Brighton. I probably will support it, but I will say I’m disappointed. When you look at the make up of the CAG group it was always going to go back to QE II, because it’s made up of all the residents groups in the area.• Linda StewartPreferred locaton: QE II

I feel it was the right decision because it has the road linkages, transport options and room to grow. I’m very mindful that if we placed it in the right place we would still retain people from the Shirley-Papanui and Hagley-Fer-rymead wards, and even people from as far as Kaiapoi.• Stan TawaPreferred location: QE II

I was surprised they were go-ing back to QE II, because at the beginning they were talking about the ground not being able to be used, but I assume they’ve done some testing since. It does make sense because there are a lot of things already there, like car park-ing and roading, that just needed to be repaired. My question is how much money will need to be spent to fix the land.

The Pegasus Post spoke to Burwood-Pegasus ward city councillors and community board members about where they thought the Eastern Recreation and Sport Centre should go. They all said they would vote in support of the proposed QE II site next week.

We work on a high teacher to child ratio with 80% plus of our teachers qualified.

We offer 1 to 3 days no charge (conditions apply) using 20 hours ECE for 3 year olds, and offer the option of 1/2 days in our nursery.

We pride ourselves on our strong professional relationships with whanau and tamariki; this was highly commended in our lastEducation Review Office visit.

Lake Terrace Preschool, Home away from HomeLake Terrace Preschool located in Burwood is a privately-owned centre in eastern Christchurch catering to the needs of children up to five years of age. Children are grouped into three classroom areas according to their age/needs and programmes are designed to meet the needs of these different groups.

Their Preschool area has a team of experienced teachers who offer an exciting, challenging and wondrous environment for your preschoolers where:

• They develop trusting and responsiverelationships with teachers and peers and begin to build relationships with others who visit the centre regularly.

• They know they and their families have aplace, are valued members of a group and are able to express themselves and be heard.

• They are supported by adults to furtherdevelop reasoning, understanding, how relationships work as well as many other necessary physical, emotional, and cognitive skills needed to support lifelong learning.

• They are provided with the equipment andtools they need to discover and explore thinking and reasoning at an appropriate level.

• They can work individually or in groups tomake sense of their discoveries

• Ideas are challenged in a supportive way toextend thinking.

• They have opportunities to explore thecommunity outside of the centre environment.

• Literacy, numeracy, art & drama, music andscience are present in everyday activities and experiences, in a natural, fun and meaningful way.

As a team their teachers value and respect each other, children and their families and therefore, provide a truly respectful learning environment for the children in their setting.

They value the relationships their preschool aged children have with others in the community, and provide many opportunities for those relationships to foster and grow.

Lake Terrace Preschool, where learning, loving and partnership go hand in hand. Please feel free to pop in or call Rachel 383 4757 to organise a visit or find out more information.

What makes them successful?• They have evolved over time and have responded to the

different demographic changes since 1877.• They are located in neighbourhoods; they cater for

families and respond to community needs.• They are staffed by highly trained teachers who know

curriculum levels from level 1 – 5 who have had the same teacher training as teachers in other year 7 and 8 school types.

• Teachers in the students current full primary school know about individual students learning progress and learning style from year 1 – 8.

• Developing the whole child, flexibility, nurture, innovation and child centered learning sum up full primary schools.

• Year 7 and 8 intermediate age students are the leaders and role models along with the adults in a full primary school.

• School organisation in a full primary school fits the needs of students not the timetable.

• All year 7 and 8 students are included in leadership opportunities, sporting opportunities, school community job opportunities, buddy responsibilities and role model expectations. They are seen by others in the school as the leaders and younger students to look up to them.

• These opportunities and strategies to build leadership, key competencies and resilience are available to all intermediate age children in a full primary.

Aroha ki te tangata, te tuahiwi ki te whai aoRespect: the foundation for future success

Parents of year 6 students are encouraged to take a good look at their child’s full primary school when choosing schooling for 2015. Why change schools when you don’t need to? Full Primary schools are tried and tested and have developed in innovative and cost effective ways since their inception in 1877. They are as important to the provision of education in 2015 as they were in 1877.

What does the research tell us about the learning needs of Year 7 and 8 students?• Curriculum that is relevant, challenging,

integrative, and exploratory• Multiple learning and teaching approaches• Assessment and evaluation programs that

promote quality learning• Organizational structures that support

meaningful relationships and learning• Educators who value working with the

age group • Courageous, collaborative leadership• School-wide efforts and policies that foster

health, wellness, and safety• Multifaceted guidance and support services• School-initiated family and community

partnerships

Looking at the above list it becomes clear that it isn’t school type or school architecture that makes the difference for intermediate age children. It is instead the learning and the attitude of professionals to this cohort of students. This can happen in any school setting as long as the leadership, teachers and non-teaching staff are committed. Full Primary Schools are providers of intermediate aged education in every way that other types of schools are.

“Encouraging life-long learners. Expanding Horizons”

Our school offers…

§ Fun and authentic learning.

§ A family orientated environment.

§ Quality teaching with high expectations.

§ A full primary education - New Entrants - Year 8.

§ Quality learning programmes.

§ Opportunities in sport, the arts, outdoor education and leadership.


And alsoThe research also provides insight into what works for intermediate age children: Ministry of Education by Dinham and Rowe of the Australian Council for Educational Research. 2007• From the broader ‘teaching and learning literature’,

there is strong evidence that the quality of teaching which students receive at all levels and stages of schooling is of major importance in influencing achievement outcomes for students.

• While productive and positive student-teacher relationships are identified as an important characteristic of highly performing schools catering for middle years students, it needs to be acknowledged that good teachers and school leaders at all levels of schooling is what works.

• It is therefore debateable whether at least some aspects of the philosophy and enactment of middle schooling is any different from ‘good’ teaching and effective schooling generally in all school types.

The literature is clear in advocating ‘middle schooling approaches focusing on quality teaching and enhanced learning’ rather than on school type. Therefore it is what happens in the classroom to support learning and what happens across the school to cater for the specific developmental, cognitive, physical, emotional and social needs of intermediate age children that makes the difference. Not school type. The research on middle schooling and its implications to provision of quality education to year 7 and 8 students is as applicable to full primary schools as it is for other intermediate schooling types.

FOOD

Pea, ham and sour cream fettuccineServes 4 Ingredients460g Fettuccine, or spaghetti360g Champagne ham, diced3½ cups Frozen peas, defrosted250g Sour cream, or creme fraiche½ Lemon, juiced

DirectionsBring a large pot of salted water to the boil. Add pasta, stir and cook for 8-10minutes or until al dente.

Stir pasta a few times while cooking to pre-vent it sticking together.

Drain pasta, then add back to the pot along with the ham, peas, sour cream and lemon juice.

Toss everything together and warm through on low heat. Season to taste with a little salt (if needed) and freshly ground black pepper.

If splurging on the flat shopping budget, a few torn basil leaves on top is nice.

Divide between serving bowls and eat while hot.

Quick Thai chicken curry for one

Using a Thai green curry paste makes this a quick dish to cook – curry pastes are available in sachets or bottles from supermarkets and Asian grocery stores.

Ingredients2 tsp Rice bran oil1 Chicken breast, skinless, trimmed and sliced1 Small onion, sliced2 tsp Thai green curry paste2 Tbsp Water165g Coconut milk, or coconut cream1 to serve Lime, halved

DirectionsHeat a frying pan, add oil and pan-fry skinless chicken breast, trimmed and sliced for 5 minutes to brown on both sides. Remove to one side.

Add sliced onion to the pan and stir-fry to lightly brown.

Add curry paste and gently fry for 1 minute to release flavours.

Add water and mix until smooth, then stir in the coconut milk or cream.

Return chicken to the pan and simmer very gently (do not allow to boil) for 5 minutes, stirring often.

Stir in fresh coriander and serve with lime wedges on the side to squeeze over.Chef ’s tipsThe curry should not need any salt and pepper as the curry paste is full of strong flavours.

Don’t allow the mixture to boil once the coconut milk has been added or the sauce may separate.

Speedy suppers

Fried bananas and caramel sauceServes 4 For those of you with a sweet tooth, this dessert is a must. Instead of deep-frying, you can simply roll the bananas in dark, rich muscovado sugar then fry in a little butter and serve with a warm caramel sauce.

Ingredients6 Tbsp Muscovado sugar2 Tbsp Butter150ml Cream4 Bananas, peeled and cut into four2 Tbsp Toasted sesame seeds4 scoops Vanilla ice cream, to serve

DirectionsTo make a caramel sauce put 4 tablespoons

of sugar in a small pot. Add butter and cream.

Bring to a simmer, stirring until butter has melted. Remove from heat.

Spread remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar on a small plate. Toss bananas in sugar.

Heat a frying pan and cook the bananas a few at a time until golden. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.

Place bananas on plates, top with a scoop of ice cream and drizzle caramel sauce over them.

Parklands Christchurch United Softball Club

Parklands Christchurch United Softball Club (PCU) has been part of your community offering

softball and tee ball to the Eastside for over 55 years. Friendships have been formed, traditions followed and many successful softballers have started their playing

careers with PCU and are still playing today.

PCU is a family-friendly club with a long history and great comradery. PCU is � rmly focused on providing all its members with the skills and

knowledge for them to be the best they

can be, and to enable them to move up the grades within the club where they can play as seniors and premiers. � e success of the premier teams over the years has seen them produce many fantastic Canterbury Red

Sox and Red Hawks players, as well as New Zealand Black Sox and White Sox players. Last season, PCU had three Black Sox representatives, Regan Manley, Stephen Ratu and Josh � omson, and also Jayden Moore, the Black Sox manager.

PCU has excellent coaches, all successful in their own right and are all totally focused on ensuring you or your child has the best time playing this exciting sport. So� ball is made up of tee ball for the younger child of four to nine years; U11’s so� ball, a slightly modi� ed game to make the transition from tee ball to so� ball easier; then it’s to full so� ball from U13 years and up. PCU provides girls and boys’ teams across the grades with mixed tee ball on o� er for the really young children (four to six years).

Tee ball to U13 so� ball is played on Saturday mornings at North Hagley Park. U16 so� ball is played at Mainland Foundation Park on Saturday mornings and all senior so� ball is on Saturday a� ernoons. U19 so� ball is played on

Monday nights at Mainland Foundation Park.

PCU provides all the playing and safety equipment and provides you with your playing uniform. All you need is a so� ball glove, sports shoes and black shorts.To be part of this friendly,

successful club, go along to the next registration day on Sunday,

September 7, at the New Brighton Rugby Football Club from 12pm to

2pm, or check out the PCU website atwww.sportsground.co.nz/pcuso� ballchch, where you can � nd out more information and you can register online.

Are you feeling in control of your patterns of behaviour, or are they controlling you?

It could be your eating habits - a whole packet of biscuits rather than just one, or binge snacking a� er dinner. Many of us eat for emotional reasons, such as boredom, stress or habit, rather than actually being hungry.

Or have your sleep patterns spiralled out of control or gotten into a rut? Do you have di� culty falling asleep at night, lying in bed for hours before � nally dropping o� ?

Are you smoking more but enjoying it less and don’t know why you do it? Perhaps you struggle to control your reactions to certain situations and stutter, blush or have a panic attack.

By using hypnotherapy to change your patterns of behaviour, you are dealing with the root causes and how you react to them, rather than simply masking their e� ects.

Transform Hypnotherapy are specialists using a progressive relaxation technique to access the subconscious mind and then reprogramme it with more desired patterns of behaviour.

Clinical hypnotherapist Juliette Harris says our subconscious mind is like a large � le storage facility, which stores our automatic responses such as breathing and blood

Clinical hypnotherapist Juliette Harris

circulation, along with learned responses, such as walking, holding a pencil or driving a car.

“Our subconscious mind also stores those problematic learned responses or behavioural habits, including overeating, smoking, fears and phobias, anxiety or sleep disorders,” says Juliette.

Hypnotherapy is a safe and enjoyable process that changes lives by also assisting with other problems, including enuresis (bed-wetting), nail biting, pain relief, con� dence or public speaking.

“� e client is awake and in control of their responses during hypnosis. It’s very similar to driving on ‘autopilot’ when you lose track of time, but know that you followed all the road rules subconsciously.”

While just one session can be su� cient to deal with minor shorter term issues, says Juliette, two to four sessions spread over several months are more bene� cial to those with long-term and deep-rooted problems.

MONEY

Lobby to leave KiwiSaver alone

KIWISAVER is a “no brainer”—as long as governments will leave it alone. It is good because the Government puts in $1000 when you start.

It is good because the Govern-ment contributes $10 a week as long as you put in $20 a week or more.

It is good because your em-ployer has to put in the same amount as you. The $10 a week is still good for those self-em-ployed.

The $10 a week is also good for people who are not working (e.g. at-home mothers).

IT’S GOOD AS LONG AS THE POLITICIANS LEAVE IT ALONE

When KiwiSaver started out, the Government would contrib-ute $20 a week as long as you put in $20 a week.

When National got elected in 2008, they promptly cut the government contribution from $20 a week to $10 a week, citing difficult economic conditions.

To be fair, that was in the

middle of the Global Financial Crisis and things were indeed tough.

But will we ever get a retire-ment scheme that future govern-ments leave alone?

That’s what we all want, so we can have confidence in our retirement plan.

KIWISAVER IS A NOBRAINER

You need the Government to leave it alone.

Tell your MP in no uncertain terms to leave it alone.

KIWISAVER TAX You are taxed three times on

your KiwiSaver. You pay tax on the money

before you put it into your Ki-wiSaver.

The investment earnings are then taxed. Then when you re-tire, and invest the money from your KiwiSaver into income-producing funds, you will be taxed again.

THE GOVERNMENT WILL EVENTUALLY MAKE A LOT OF MONEY FROM YOUR KIWISAVER

The Government put in an initial $1000 plus they contribute $10 a week or $520 per annum, but then they tax the invest-ment earnings.

WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE—TAX AT 17.5 PER CENT?

Example: A KiwiSaver with total contributions of $500 per month x 25 years.

At a 6 per cent gross return (no tax), it will grow to $349,000. Taxed at 17.5 per cent it will grow to $298,000.

In this example the Govern-ment will have “contributed” $13,500 and taken back over $50,000.

WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE—

TAX AT 28 PER CENT? Example: A KiwiSaver’s total

contributions of $500 per month x 25 years.

At a 6 per cent gross return (no tax) it will grow to $349,000. Taxed at 28 per cent , it will grow to $272,000. In this example the Government will have “contrib-uted” $13,500 and taken back over $77,000.

IN TIME, IT’S A HUGE MONEY SPINNER FOR THE GOVERNMENT COFFERS

Once a few million people get into KiwiSaver and their ac-counts really start to grow, the Government will be making— no, taking—heaps more in tax revenue.

In the US, people form lobby groups and hassle politicians on issues that they want fixed or changed.

In New Zealand we don’t lobby them, but we should.

Most countries offer some sav-ers some tax incentives

Many Western countries have tax-advantaged superannuation schemes.

LOBBY, LOBBY, LOBBY Before the election, send your

MP or favoured election can-didate an email, and tell him/ her that if they want your vote: • They need to promise to leave KiwiSaver alone (or improve it). • They need to promise to look into reducing the internal taxes on KiwiSaver.

At a political and economiclevel, we all know that thosewho control themoney have thepower. In personalrelationships, it is no different.Control overmoney can be usedeither in a beneficial ordetrimental way by one personto control another.Theway in whichmoney is

managed in a relationship veryoften signals the underlyingnature of the relationship. Insome instances, one partnermay refuse to participate inmanagingmoney. This may befor a variety of reasons.Sometimes it is because the

personwishes to retaincomplete financialindependence and dowhat theylike with their ownmoneywhether the other person likesit or not. At the other end of thespectrum, it can be that one

person is afraid of managingmoney and is happy to leave itall to the other person. Therearemany variations between.An unhealthy relationship

with regard tomoney is one inwhich a partner is kept in thedark onmoneymatters despitebeing keen to know; one personrefuses to talk to the otheraboutmoney or to reveal keyinformation such as theirincome, or where one person isforced to sign financialdocuments withoutunderstanding themeaning ofthe documents or theconsequences of signing.Sometimes, where there issignificant wealth involved, itmay be held in companies ortrusts involving third partieswithout full information beingdisclosed to the shareholders orbeneficiaries.In a healthy relationship

there is full disclosure betweenpartners of financialinformation, there is awillingness by both partners toparticipate inmanagingfinancial affairs and there areagreed financial goals whichare achieved through co-operative behaviour andsharing of financial resources.Ideally, partners should aspireto having similar levels offinancial literacy.

For those who didn’t know about it, this was a house where the occupants left some oil heating on a stove and left the room. The resulting fire destroyed the house and the elderly occupants, desperately trying to stop the fire were very nearly caught inside.

The swift actions of a couple of passers-by got them out in time.

We’re eternally grateful to the house own-ers for the permission to show the house to those who responded to our advertis-ing.

The morning saw a steady flow of more than 200 people inspect the ruins. Most of

us never get the chance to see something like this.

Yet one in three of all house fires start in the kitchen. While it is probably only coin-cidental there was just one kitchen fire this week on Main Rd, Redcliffs, last Monday.

And it might also be coincidental that the occupant was in the kitchen and stopped the fire herself.

But that is what we preach. Stay in the kitchen while cooking, put any fire out if safe to do so and always phone 111 even if you’re convinced there is no residual fire.

Arson keeps returning to our poor city.The deliberate lighting of a garage under a

set of flats in the early hours last Saturday in Hereford St is particularly concerning.

The flats were occupied.Someone is prepared to kill. Now that is

hugely concerning.

Executive style and outstanding views265 Major Hornbrook Road, Mt Pleasant$855,0005 bedrooms | 4 bathrooms |5 toilets | 3 living | 2-car garage | Listing number: FM4383

The views will impress you and the overall space of this home will truly amaze you with a sumptuous family living room,

warmed by a modern log burner and a large lounge looking out to the Southern Alps and the sweeping sea views of Pegasus Bay.

The four double bedrooms plus office/fifth bedroom, served by the three bathrooms, will meet the needs of a large family with such space hard to find on the hill. The master bedroom suite includes a walk-in robe and en suite, and connects with an additional room that offers a variety of uses from extra lounge, family games room or teenagers’ retreat. It would also be ideal as a home office or treatment room, as it has its own street access. With these endless possibilities, viewing is essential.

With decks flowing out from the living areas, outdoor entertaining is fully catered for and offer appealing mountain views. To complete the home, there is a double garage with a large workshop to the rear along with ample off-street parking, all set in easy-care grounds.

The owners’ decision to sell is firm as they have made the decision to downsize as the family has flown the nest. Do not miss this rare opportunity to find a beautifully presented, spacious family home. Call to book a viewing today. Open Home: Sunday, August 24 & 31 - 2.15pm to 3pm.
