Teamwork

BY BRIDGET RUTHERFORD

Sydenham business owners are rallying to try and stop a waste transfer station from being in-stalled in the area.

Sydenham Quarter Incorporat-ed secretary, Lorraine Thompson, has started a petition on behalf of businesses in the area opposing the station which has generated more than 200 signatures.

Last month, Environment Can-terbury granted EnviroWaste a 10 year resource consent to discharge odour and dust into the air from the KiwiRail-owned shed near the intersection of Colombo and Cass Sts.

The appeal period closes tomor-row.

EnviroWaste must now wait for the city council to grant consent

which mostly relates to traffic effects.

Mrs Thompson started the peti-tion on May 28, and received two pages of signatures by the follow-ing day.

The petition had been circu-lated around a number of local businesses such as Mythos Greek Souvlakis and Harman Motors, both on Colombo St, where they can be signed.

She said the station would go against the Sydenham Master Plan which wants to see the area become more residential, and it could ruin what is an up and com-ing area.

There was a lot of empty land nearby, and owners would either want to sell or rebuild on it, she said. Turn to page 2

want to be across from a rubbish dump.”

The same site came under scrutiny previously when a Skelly Holdings demoli-tion yard, installed after the February 2011 earthquake, omitted dust and odour.

Director Chris Skelly was issued two abatement no-tices in relation to air pollu-tion from the site and later left the country, leaving a pile of earthquake rubble on the site.

ECan consents planning manager Tania Harris said only the applicant or a previous submitter could appeal the decision.

“Only the applicant or a submitter to the process can now appeal. Any appeal must be lodged with the Environment Court which is then charged with the final decision.”

Any correspondence or submission of material would have to be directed to the court for consider-ation.

Mrs Thompson said lo-cals involved would attend a meeting today to decide exactly how to present the petition to ECan so it could be considered.

City councillor Tim Scandrett said there was very little that the city council could do with regards to the consent, but councillors could voice their concerns.

He said the petition starting was a positive step, and he would be collecting signatures within the city council when he could.

“That is definitely some-thing I’m going to get sup-port with, I’ll be like a dog with a bone.”

One of the problems with the application was that a number of those involved had not been informed of the application, he said.

“It’s a shame they didn’t

give us all a heads up.“If they want to be good

neighbours, how about a bit of communication?”

Spreydon-Heathcote Community Board chair-man Paul McMahon said the board was supportive of the petition.

“We really want to sup-port the Sydenham com-munity.

“It’s just ridiculous and frustrating.”

EnviroWaste environ-mental manager Laurence Dolan would not comment on the petition.

“I don’t think it’s appro-priate to make any com-ments during the appeal period.”

EARLY PUPPY SOCIALISATION

&McMaster HeapVeterinary practice

Steve and I have just been to the Pan Pacific Vet conference in Brisbane. We enjoyed a week of new ideas and techniques, connecting with old friends, and looking at lots of new equipment. We already have new equipment lined up for the Practice that will enable us to do a better job in dentistry and anaesthesia.Most of the lectures we attended were on dentistry, animal behavior, radiography and small animal medicine. I’d like to discuss the importance of early socialisation of your new pup and the ways in which we, at McMaster & Heap, can provide advice, encouragement and support in this area.The socialisation period in puppies begins at age 3 weeks and continues to age 12-14 weeks, depending on the breed. During this time, a puppy’s brain is developing social capabilities and associations. Puppies who do not experience appropriate socialisation during this period often suffer behaviour problems throughout life. Early socialisation allows for healthy social development, preventing avoidance behaviours and acts of aggression based on fear of other dogs, people or new environments. Appropriate socialisation involves exposing your pup to a variety of different people, places, environments and situations without causing him to become afraid. Examples include people of all ages, sizes, and colors, men with beards, people wearing uniforms, headgear or glasses, people in wheelchairs or walkers, and people riding bikes, skateboards, or rollerblades. Owners should carry treats with them at all times so that new people the puppy meets can provide a positive interaction.

Teaching a puppy to sit for all interactions with new people will also encourage him to greet people in a polite manner. Exposure to inanimate stimuli, such as vacuum cleaners, cameras, balloons, crates, and veterinary offices is also important. The use of food treats to create a positive association with objects, as well as people is essential. At McMaster and Heap we value and respect your new babies and we want their experience at OUR Practice to be awesome. They generally first visit us between 8-10 weeks of age for their vaccinations. This age bracket is their first fear period. This sets them up to have strong fear learning capabilities and one negative experience can be detrimental for life. We aim to be gentle and quiet around them initially, giving them time to smell and trust us. We offer treats during the physical exam and

vaccinations so the pup is distracted and doesn’t develop fear associated with taking a temperature or being stuck with a needle. We don’t muck around as pups have shorter attention spans. Our practice mascot LOLA, my devoted, gentle Black Lab is always cruising around and I make sure these pups get introduced to her in the consult. She allows them to sniff, leap and run around her in a non threatening, safe, fun way

so they are learning social interactions with a placid, kind mature dog. These interactions with safe older dogs are important although they need to be healthy and fully vaccinated. It is appropriate for the adult dog to give an occasional reprimand in the form of a bark or air snap when the puppy is biting or playing too roughly. Any aggression beyond that, however, is not appropriate. Problem behaviours seen early on that will require the help of a professional in this area are: avoidance of other people and animals, lunging at people, alarm barking, excessive mouthing and biting during handling.Another very important aspect of early socialisation is attending a well controlled, fun, informative PUPPY PLAYSCHOOL. We are very fortunate to have Carol, a registered vet nurse, with years of experience handling and enjoying dogs, running our playschool evenings. It is here, in our large reception

area, once a week for 3 sessions, that your pup will learn in a safe and controlled manner how to interact with other pups and new people. They will also learning basic training and they will start to understand what you want from them. They will get an appreciation that a vet clinic is

not scary or threatening – actually its loads of fun and you get loads of treats. You also learn a lot about the general needs and health of you pet including nutrition, desexing, vaccinations, insurance, advise on the best toys and treats, further training and we can help if behavioural issues develop along the way.Give McMaster & Heap a call to find out more about our successful

Puppy Playschool classes. We all believe they are an essential part of developing a well rounded, calm, socialised, happy, healthy little pup as well as being fun and informative and inexpensive. Children are also welcome… as long as well behaved!Dr Michele McMaster

$5000 for playgroundThe Spreydon-Heathcote Community Board has confirmed a grant of $5000 from its Discretionary Response Fund to go towards the rebuild of the Barrington playground. The play-ground was destroyed in an arson attack in March. The city council is matching the public fundraising ef-forts by putting $20,000 towards it.

Asbestos testingCity council staff are investigating ways to determine whether there is asbestos in the Sydenham Heritage Church rubble. The Spreydon-Heathcote Community Board is expecting a memorandum shortly from staff outlining what testing can be done on the site to determine what process needs to be taken to clear the rubble.

Matches disrupt trafficThere will be increased traffic in Addington during peak times on Thursday at 7.30pm and June 17, at 4pm, for FIFA U-20 World Cup matches being held at Christchurch Stadium. Drivers are urged to avoid Lincoln Rd, Whiteleigh Ave, Blen-heim Rd and the surrounding areas during peak times and to use other routes such as the southern motor-way.

One-way streetMatlock St, Linwood, will be westbound one way from today for up to 10 days while workers renew a section of damaged wastewater laterals. Parking on the street next to the work area may be unavailable at times, and footpath access will be disrupted. One side of the street will always be open for pedestrian use.

▌▌ IN BRIEF


Sydenham business owners have lost a battle to stop part of a local playground being swapped with nearby Sikh society land.

On Wednesday the Spreydon-Heathcote Community Board voted to approve city council plans to remodel and swap part of Buchan Playground with Sikh society land.

But it was a split decision, with board members Helene Mautner and Rik Tindall voting against the plans.

It will now go back to the city council for final approval.

The city council has negoti-ated with the Sikh society to swap 1230 sq m of land at the rear of the existing park, with the society’s empty 602 sq m site at 74 Wordsworth St.

The society would pay the city council for the additional land.

The city council said the swap would allow the park to have more street frontage, a shallower profile, improved surveillance and a better connectivity through to Colombo St.

But business owners in the area opposed the plans and said inner city green space was precious.

Rod Stuart, who owns local business Tropicool said the com-munity board had not voted for the people of Sydenham.

“Sydenham folk do not want this land swap to go through. It will mean a smaller park and several properties will lose park frontage.”

He said those opposing the swap would try and convince city councillors to reconsider before they made the final approval.

“The area is about to become high density residential and Buchan park is perfect inner city green space for new Sydenham locals.”

The community board was asked to make a decision on the swap on May 15, but decided to defer it until all parties had vis-ited the site together which they did last week.

Board chairman Paul McMa-hon said it was not a perfect deal, but believed it would transform the park.

He said the changes would make the area more visible from Colombo St and that alone would draw more people to it.

“I think that Buchan Play-

ground will be better used and it will mean drainage issues will get dealt with and more people will use it.

“I really do think the outcome will be really good.”

He said local business owners who opposed the changes, would be disappointed.

“Everybody is committed to the good of Sydenham but there are different opinions to what that is.”

New Zealand Sikh Society

representative Jitender Sahi the society was really happy with the board’s decision.

He said the changes would im-prove the park for the community because it would make it a square shape with more street frontage.

The society is currently prepar-ing design plans for its new prem-ises and hoping to have construc-tion under way in the next 18 months, he said.

Plans for the park also include removing the play equipment be-cause it was “infrequently used” and no longer complied with cur-rent safety standards and chang-ing the name to Buchan Park.

More seating would be in-stalled, some mature trees would be retained where possible and new planting up to 1m in height would be included to make the area look nicer.

Mary came into the bureau because she was feeling lonely and isolated at home with her young son.

She had moved to Christ-church with her husband, who was a tradesman. He had found work as part of the Christchurch rebuild.

The excitement of moving to a new country, organising a place to live, buying a car had all been taken care of within the first few weeks of arriving.

Moving to New Zealand was a daunting process. However, after the newness of everything faded, Mary found herself at home alone for long periods of time while her husband was working. She started to experience feelings of home-sickness and isolation.

Developing new social supports and networks can seem daunting at first. We were able to discuss with Mary a range of different options that best fitted her needs and her interests.

The possibility of having safety signs or a slower speed limit outside Somerfield School will be investigated.

The Spreydon-Heathcote Community Board has requested that city council staff take a look at the prob-lems and provide the board with advice on ways to help slow traffic on Somerfield and Barrington Sts.

Last week the Southern View reported concerns about the lack of signage leading up to the pedestrian crossing on Somerfield St, and the possibility of having a 40km/h speed limit.

City council transport and city streets acting unit manager Paul Burden said Somerfield School was cur-rently scheduled to have an electronic sign installed outside the school in the 2016/17 financial year.

The sign is expected to cost $40,000.

Somerfield Residents’ As-sociation chairwoman Julie Tobbell contacted the com-

munity board about concerns from parents in the area.

She said it was great to see some action and would like to see slow down signs to make drivers aware the crossing was coming up, which would be there at all times of the day.

People were coming and going all the time from the school and Annabel’s Edu-care, she said.

Barrington St was also a problem area, and she wondered whether the zebra crossing there needed to be moved because it was close to its intersection with Stud-holme St.

Community board chair-man Paul McMahon put forward the notice of motion to the board, which was passed unanimously.

“I thought it would be good to ask that staff find a good way of slowing traffic down outside the school.”

He said the road did have a lot of school children crossing and the board wanted to see any possible options that could be done faster.

Options for safer school street to be investigated

TIPS: The Linwood College Chorale had the pleasure of working with Dr Don Campbell who is the professor of music and director of Choral Activities at Southern Wesleyan University, South Carolina. The chorale was grateful for the opportunity to hear Dr Campbell’s feedback on its repertoire for the upcoming Big Sing competition. He worked with the group on their singing technique and stage etiquette.


Community board members are in for a big pay rise to compensate for the increased work load since the earthquakes.

Board members across the city will receive a 30 per cent pay rise for their work which will jump from $19,460 to $25,610.

Chairmen and chairwomen’s salaries will rise from $29,200 to $38,532.

The reasoning behind the rise is for the additional responsibilities community boards have taken on since the earthquakes which were seen to be generally more exten-

sive than other boards throughout the country.

Spreydon-Heathcote Communi-ty Board chairman Paul McMahon (right) said the pay rise for board members was “significant”.

“I have to take the opportunity to say that my board members all work really hard.

“I know all of my board mem-bers do significant amounts of work.”

He said a lot of people might not know about the amount of work that a board member does.

He said unlike some of the city councillors suggesting they may give some of their pay to charity,

he would not be.“No, I mean I think as I said if

I was earning in the vicinity of $100,000, that would be worth considering.”

He said the hours board members put in could vary, with one week sitting at about 40 hours, and other weeks members could

spend 12 hours.“I do think that community

boards since about 2006, have been under paid and under re-sourced.”

The pay rates are set by the Remuneration Authority, which controls pay for elected officials.

But this year Mayor Lianne Dalziel asked the authority to skip pay rises for the city council, and give them to community boards.

Most decisions made by com-munity boards at the moment need to be put to the city council for approval, which means they take a lot more time.

Hagley-Ferrymead Community Board chairwoman Sara Templeton (left) said community board members often worked long hours and gave up family time to do their work.

She said it was good for Ms Dalziel and city councillors to acknowledge the work load they had done, especially since the earthquakes.

Ms Dalziel’s salary will rise from $179,350 to $184,300, councillors’ from $95,300 to $99,200.Deputy Mayor Vicki Buck will receive $4626 more. In total the pay rises will cost ratepayers more than $300,000.

Forward Foundation: Letting girls

So why did you start the Forward Foundation?

Actually, the idea started be-cause someone told me I couldn’t do it. Anyone who knows me knows I don’t like to be told no! I played rugby all through high school, and the boys always got the better fields and better coaches. But it wasn’t until I was removed from playing and started looking in, that you realise how difficult it is and how unmotivated it is for the girls to be treated like that. So I thought maybe there’s a gap I can fill.

And it’s not just rugby anymore, is it?

No, we realised through our success that we could appeal to all minority sports, rugby wasn’t the only one that needed this kind of thing. We’ve now got 20 ambas-sadors, and they play all kinds of sport. One girl does artistic roller skating, and one does waka ama boat racing, so some are pretty different, but it’s their dream. When the girls apply to become ambassadors we asked them to say what they hoped to achieve for the sport, and it was this girl’s dream

to make waka ama an Olympic sport. They’re very ambitious girls.

A lot of people have great plans and ideas, but many just never happen. What gave you the drive to actually do it?

I’ve heard everyone has a million-dollar idea in their life but most people never act on it. All my life I’ve always been a doer. I think putting something into ac-tion is the most incredible feeling. And I’m lucky because I’ve also been surrounded by so many great mentors and great friends who are also doing fantastic things in the community. And my family has always supported me.

So where are you at the moment?

It’s the first year of the ambas-sador programme, so we’re still just trialling things at the moment.

I view it as an entrepreneurial charity, so you have to operate like a start-up as you get it going, and adapt to different situations like a start-up. We started just in Canterbury, but as it has spread nationwide we’re still just trying to give girls op-portunities they would otherwise miss out on, just filling those gaps. The goal is to help girls get out and do things they wouldn’t otherwise be able to do, and ultimately I’d love to get some scholar-ships going too.

Is this something you do as a job?

No, I have a full-time job at a pet food company called K9 Natural, where I’m a product de-velopment officer. I know it seems

completely random, but everything I

have learnt here I’ve been able to

take over to the foundation, so I’m really lucky to have this job

and my growth here has been

exponential. I believe chari-

ties should be run like a business.

There’s a really fan-tastic talk on the TED

site, which I love. It’s about how, if charities operated like a business, how much more successful they would be and how much more they could contribute to the com-munity.

Pet food also came up in your postgraduate study, right?

Yes, that was the subject of my dissertation for my honours. That’s actually how I got the job here at K9. I had a fantastic supervisor who placed me here for two weeks in a research position. After my two weeks, K9 offered me a mar-keting job, so I ended up working full time and studying full time and running the foundation too. It was a pretty full plate, but very rewarding.

So did you learn anything interesting in your study of pet food?

I did. I was studying pet food purchasing, and there were two really big trends. One is when people treat their pets as part of the family, so you see things like people buying birthday presents for their pet and spending a bit more than they probably should on them. The second trend is hu-manisation, where you see things like human food trends pouring over into trends for pets. I think New Zealanders usually see their pet as a pet, but they do tend to see them as part of the family.

At 19, Maddy Surie started the Forward Foundation to help girls achieve their sporting goals. Three years later, Forward Foundation ambassadors are working to coach girls around the country. She spoke to Gabrielle Stuart about rugby knockouts, pet food trends and getting pizza in China

GOALS: Maddy Surie has always been passionate about sport, and started the Forward Foundation to help other girls achieve their ambitions too.

achieve ambitious goals in sportTell me about your trip to

China?Sure. That was through a course

run through Canterbury Univer-sity. We went over to Gongshang University, in Hangzhou, in what was sort of a university city there.

There were 14 universities in the city, and about a quarter of a million university students living there. So we were teaching there in return for our board.

I had one group I taught in particular which stood out to me. I was obviously speaking English to them, and encouraging them to talk. One girl asked what my fa-vourite food was, and I said pizza. I don’t even know why, because it’s not actually my favourite food, but it’s the first thing that popped into my head.

They said oh, we have a Pizza Hut here, so they took us to Pizza Hut for dinner. It was amazing be-cause they don’t have much money at all but they were paying New Zealand prices for pizza.

I begged them to let me pay, but they wouldn’t let me, even when one girl’s card declined. To be honest it wasn’t much like the pizza from home, but it was such a good example of how strong their culture and values are.

When I left they made me this huge scrapbook, even though they barely knew me. It was a life-changing experience.

Do you think you could ever expand the foundation to other countries, like China?

It’s definitely a possibility, but

I think we need to set up a good base here first. I’ve learnt you’ve got to set up the foundation, be-fore you can build on it. You can’t try to expand too fast.

How much of a role has sport played in your own life?

It’s been huge. At school I was a sport nut, everything revolved around it. I was once playing rugby and someone pulled me backward, and I hit my head and I woke up on the sidelines.

I had been playing since I was about six, but when that happened my parents said no more rugby, you’re done, choose another sport. I refused to stop, and eventually they came around to the idea

nothing would stop me playing. My first question at the Christch-urch Girls’ High School open day was do you have a rugby team? Fortunately they did, or I wouldn’t have gone.

Do you still play?I actually don’t anymore. I got

very unwell at the start of the season with something called pul-monary embolism, which is where you get clots in your lungs.

My case was very severe. I still can’t forget the doctor’s face when he told me I was lucky to be alive. I got really into coaching then because I couldn’t play. I could play again now, but I actually find it really rewarding, coaching. They

keep me young.If you get any free time, what

do you like to do with it?Make time to catch up with

those friends who really have a positive impact on me. I love TED, and I went to the TEDxChristch-urch conference last year. It was one of those days that keeps you buzzing for weeks afterward.

I have a thing for being around people doing great things. I also love the Port Hills. I love every-thing about it. It’s just a 10 minute drive from where I live, but you feel like you’ve stepped out into an isolated heaven. I make an effort to go there a few times a week for a run around the hills or

a walk with friends.A lot of people say Christch-

urch is too conservative to be a base for new things, and eventu-ally you need to move to Auck-land or Wellington. Do you think that’s true?

Not at all. I can definitely see myself staying in Christchurch. I don’t agree at all with that, especially when we’ve seen so much going on here after the earthquakes. For example, the Epic Centre is completely based on innovation. I think Christchurch is the best place in the country right now to launch a start up or base new companies.

Where do you see yourself in the long term?

In 10 or so years I’ll definitely be running my own company. It’s something I’ve wanted to do since I was really young. And hopefully I’ll still be giving back to the com-munity through the foundation.

Where do you see the future of the foundation?

I definitely see it growing, and the long-term goal has always been to provide scholarships. I think I would like to one day be just an adviser and a trustee, and help other people who want to make a difference. It’s about get-ting the right people on the bus. I need to get the right people on board, and then the world is my oyster.

And the best way to get in touch?

Definitely through our website – www.forwardfoundation.co.nz

BY MARK THOMAS – FIRE RISK MANAGEMENT OFFICER

I’ve often talked about the metre/heater rule.

That’s a mantra that the Fire Service preach about not having anything com-bustible closer than a metre from a heater.

The reasoning behind this was perfectly illustrated last Friday at the Linwood end of Gloucester St when the occupant of a property re-turned home at lunch-time to find the flat full of smoke and a towel, left drying over a heater, on fire.

Firstly the sheer luck in the timing of going home prevented a fully involved house fire.

But leaving the towel where it was while out was an invitation to lose every-thing.

This is the time of year that we get called to this type of incident and it is so unnecessary.

Follow the metre/heater rule and it wont happen to you.

I’ve also gone on ad nau-seam about cooking fires in the kitchen.

We were close to a real di-saster in Innes Rd at Maire-

hau on Tuesday evening when the occupant of a house tried to carry a burn-ing pot of oil outside.

She dropped it. By some absolute fluke

she didn’t get burnt but the kitchen caught on fire and the St Albans crew in breath-ing apparatus put the fire out with hose reels.

The possibility here of se-rious injury was immense. Don’t touch a burning pot.

Put the lid, or an oven tray, or a bread board or a damp tea towel over it.

Then leave it there and call us. That might save some se-rious pain.

Canterbury University students visited Phillipstown recently to give the commu-nity a helping hand.

The Student Volunteer Army spent a day in the area as part of its City Care Connect the Community event.

It is the army’s largest event of the year and the third time it has taken place with previous working bees held in Burwood and Riccarton.

The day saw about 100 volunteers from both the university and the community come together to clean up and help out with various projects in the area.

Before the event, the army worked closely with Phillipstown Community Hub manager Mary Anne Bell to source proj-ects for the volunteers to help with.

It took place on May 23, and coincided with the hub’s open day, so volunteers helped out with painting murals, garden-ing, helping audit for street damage, face-painting for children, and helped create a community garden.

The volunteers began working at 9am and did four hours of projects before join-ing the community barbecue at the hub.

Phillipstown Community Hub co-ordi-nator Lauren Luketina said it was great to

have the help from the volunteers.“They were amazing, so well organised

and so energetic.”She said the group did a great job in

helping create a new community garden at the hub and cooking the barbecue at the open day.

“They just went out there and did it.”

Student volunteers lend helping hand in Phillipstown

HELPING OUT: Laura Schwass got into the spirit of things and got her face painted.

COLOURS: Winnie Whyte, Laura Schwass and Florence Hinder help paint a mural at the community hub open day.

Learning to swimoffers health bene� ts for life

Swimming is a popular and universal form of exercise that o� ers a wide range of health bene� ts, both physical and mental, and is an activity you can

enjoy throughout your life. As a low-impact exercise, swimming is an ideal workout because it requires you to move your whole body against the resistance of the water. It improves and maintains cardiovascular � tness, builds muscle strength, helps maintain a healthy weight and improves � exibility, coordination, balance and posture.

For those who would like to take up swimming for both health and enjoyment,

the Bromley-based McMillan’s Aquatic Centre (MACs) caters for everyone – from those who enjoy swimming regularly, even competitively, to those people who have never really mastered the skill and don’t feel con� dent in the water, but would like to learn.

� e centre, with its 20-metre, � ve-lane, heated indoor pool, has been owned and operated by Blair and Karen McMillan since 2009. Blair and his team of quali� ed tutors o� er lessons for both children and adults from Monday to Friday, during the school terms.

Children’s lessons are from 3pm to 6pm, and adults’ from 1pm to 3pm and 6pm to 8pm. � e adults’ lessons have proven to be so popular that the centre has added additional times, 7am to 9.30am on Tuesdays and � ursdays.

One of the key aspects of the centre, Karen says, is that they focus on building strong relationships with families.

“We take a holistic approach, and our sta� get to know the families that come here really well. Many of the sta� have been with the centre for quite some time so there’s a continuity of sta� for our clients. And they are all committed to the style of teaching we o� er.”

Lessons are $13.50. Bookings and payments are made at the start of each term, with 10 lessons, one per week, costing $135. Small classes mean that swimmers get a lot of personal attention, Karen says.

Lane hire is available for regular swimmers at $5.50 for 45 minutes. � e casual rate is $7. A 10 per cent discount is o� ered for family groups of three or more. � ere are never more than two swimmers booked per lane.

Providing a secure, private environment for swimmers, from beginners to pros, McMillan’s Aquatic Centre is located on the corner of Wickham and Francella streets (o� Dyers Road). � e carpark is o� Francella Street. Phone 332 4617.

All eyes were on a young Hoon Hay netballer recently as she stood alongside some of New Zealand’s best.

Isabelle Chensem, got the chance to meet Tactix captain Anna Thompson and Magic captain Leana De Bruin and high- five each player as they ran out on court at Horncastle Arena after winning the ANZ Future Captains competition.

She was joined by Ashburton netballer Natasha Waddell, 13.

The match saw the Tactix beat Magic in their first win of the season, 62-58.

Isabelle, who attends Burnside High School, said getting to meet the players was an amazing expe-rience.

“I got to high-five the Tactix players which was pretty cool. They’re my favourite team but I don’t have one favourite player so I got to high-five all of my favourites. I also got their signatures and got some pictures with the players after the game. It

was amazing.”The keen goal attack has been

playing netball since she was seven and says she picked up some tips watching the pros in action.

“I learned heaps from watching them. I saw that you can use other players in the circle to help feed in the ball when you’re going to shoot. The goal shoot really surprised me with all her moves. Hopefully I can try some of them.”

ANZ head of sponsorship Susan McGregor said many young netballers dream to compete in the elite transtasman tournament and being a Future Captain gives them a taste of what it is like.

“We’re giving 62 children from across the country the chance to be a Future Captain at each of the ANZ Championship matches this season. It’s a once in a lifetime experience to stand out on court with the pros and hopefully it inspires a few players to keep training hard, it could definitely be one of them one day soon.”

Brilliant brassica soupAs a lunch, or even a dinner option, you’ll be hard-pressed to find a recipe more nourishing. Soups are a wonderful way of increasing your vegetable con-sumption now that all those salad recipes are becoming less appeal-ing as the weather cools down.

Ingredients2 heads Broccoli, roughly

chopped, including stalks2 Tbsp Coconut oil1 Cauliflower, heads and stems roughly chopped2 stalks Celery, chopped finely1 Onion, chopped4 cups Vegetable stock1 handful Parsley, chopped1 handful Mint, chopped1 can Coconut milk

DirectionsIn a large saucepan melt coconut oil and cook onion and celery on

a low heat until soft and translu-cent. Add broccoli and cauliflower, including the stems. Bring to the boil with the vegetable stock then reduce heat and cook for a further 15 minutes. Add some sea salt, chopped herbs and stir in coconut milk. Blend in a food processor or blender until smooth and pour back into the saucepan for reheating if needed.

Miso soupThis rustic soup is just the thing to serve after a dose of winter exercise. Serves 4 Ingredients500ml Vegetable stock500ml Water1 Onion, peeled and cut into 8 large chunks2 Carrots, peeled and each cut into 6 chunks1 Parsnip, peeled and cut into thick discs1 Ham hock, 2 cups cooked, smoked, roughly shredded ham hock meat, or leftover slow-cooked meat of your choice, shredded4 Tbsp Miso paste, dark

1 Spring onion, thinly sliced

DirectionsPlace stock, water and vegetables in a large saucepan and bring to a gentle boil. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes. Add meat to saucepan and sim-mer for another 10 minutes, skim-ming any scum from the surface. Use a ladle to transfer about 1/2 cup of the broth to a bowl. Stir the miso into the broth until dis-solved, then return the mixture to the saucepan and stir to combine. Don’t allow soup to boil. Turn heat off, cover saucepan and leave for 2 minutes. Serve miso soup in bowls, and scatter some spring onion on top.

Leafy greens soup Serves 4

Ingredients2 bunches Leafy greens, we used cavolo nero and choy sum but greens such as spinach, kale or silverbeet would be good too1 Tbsp Olive oil2 stalks Celery, sliced3 Spring onions, chopped2 cloves Garlic, crushed3 cups Chicken stock1 bunch Coriander, choose a

large bunch1 handful Parsley1 Lime, or two

DirectionsSeparate the leaves and stems from the greens. Roughly chop the stems.

In a saucepan heat olive oil. Add celery, spring onions and garlic and cook gently, stirring often until soft but not coloured. Add the stems of the greens, plus 1 cup chopped coriander stems and continue to cook, about

5 minutes. Add 1 cup of hot chicken stock, cover and simmer for 10-15 minutes.

Add 2 more cups of hot stock, the leafy greens and a big handful of fresh coriander and parsley leaves. Simmer a further 5 minutes until everything is soft. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat, add the juice of a lime or 2, and cool for 10 minutes.

Working in batches, puree to a smooth soup in the blender. Reheat to serve.
