The Sumner Community Centre and Library’s future will be decided tomorrow, but a local group is struggling to get sup-port for its rebuild.
Meetings since the city council since the demolition of the centre and efforts to involve other local groups haven’t helped, Sumner-Redcliffs His-
torical Society secretary Topsy Rule said.
“We’ve been to no end of council meetings since it was demolished.”
When Ms Rule heard a decision could be made this month, she sent more than 30 letters to Sumner schools, churches and groups, asking them to make a
deputation to the city council.
Only two replied – the Sumner-Redcliffs Ladies Probus Club and the Sumner Senior Citizens Group.
“I believe it is a case of their secretaries not be-ing bothered. I’m a bit cross with them – considering we hold all their records,” Ms Rule said.
But she said a number of local residents – not associated with a particular group – have been urging the city council to rebuild soon.
Tomorrow the city council will decide on the community centre where budgets for the 30 priority projects will be decided.
The Sumner Community Centre and Library is expected to cost around $10 million.

Sumner businesses may find the boost they need with a new weekly market.
The area will host its own seaside market every Sunday throughout spring and summer, beginning October 19.
The Sumner Village Green will be home to a range of stalls, live music, pony rides, petanque matches and skate park demonstrations.
It will bring a positive vibe back to the commu-nity, Sumner Community Residents Association events co-ordinator Co-lette Doughty said.
“I hope we can boost the local businesses and help put Sumner back on the map. We know it’s the best place to hang out but we need to encourage others.”
Stalls will feature a range of children’s gear, jewellery, vintage wares, artworks, accessories and food.
Local shops will also put on market day specials, and the mobile library van will be on site.
SAMPLE STALLS: Emilie Berri Swtchblade (right), and Tinklebelle will be among many craft stands to peruse at the Sumner Sunday Market.
• From page 1The funding and rebuild is like-
ly to go ahead soon regardless of deputations, Hagley-Ferrymead Community Board chairwoman Sara Templeton said.
Last August the city council agreed that the Sumner Commu-nity Centre and Library should be rebuilt on the site of the demol-ished facilities on Wakefield Ave.
The city council put forward $10 million for its rebuild, before withdrawing the money as it was a mistake.
A city council employee had misread a report, assuming a mo-tion to put the money forward had been passed.
Meanwhile, local residents have been relying on a mobile library van or travelling to other areas for books.
Kitty Fenton, also of the historic society, said new premises were needed – and soon.
“We’re really in a muddle here.”Any inquiries, email sumner.
• The Sumner Village Green’s fu-ture is also hanging in the balance. Marnie Kent, of the Sumner Com-munity Residents’ Association, is currently putting a proposal to the Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Authority, Canterbury Commu-nities’ Earthquake Recovery Net-work and the city council to secure the land in Nayland St for the green to relocate to.

Lyttelton police have been threat-ened with another arson.
A suspect has been charged in re-lation to the call, which was made to the Fire Service from a public phone box in London St around 5pm on August 17.
The caller threatened to set po-lice property alight.
Lyttelton police were alerted, and detectives have been looking into the case.
Detective Sergeant Valyn Bar-rett said the suspect could also be
linked to last year’s arson at the sta-tion.
“We’ve charged someone, not ac-tually the fire but for the call. It was someone we looked at in last year’s attack. The person has certainly been on our radar but we can’t link them at this stage.”
The Fire Service was called to the station in the early hours of the morning in May last year after a neighbour reported hearing an explosion and seeing flames at the station.
One vehicle was written off, while the other sustained heat
damage to its exterior.The outside wall of the station
was also damaged.Two small rubbish bin fires had
also been found on London St, which appeared to have been lit shortly before the police station fire.
At the time, Sergeant Gary Manch told the Bay Harbour News that a woman was located by police close to the scene shortly after the incident.
Police were looking at CCTV footage to see if any offenders could be identified.
Sergeant Manch said police had an idea of who they thought the culprit was at the time, but not enough evidence to charge them.
“Reading between the lines you could say it’s the same person, but you could also say it’s not.”
The suspect was due to appear in court yesterday.
If you see any suspicious activity or might have information, phone the Lyttelton police station on 378 0200.
You can also report anonymously to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
Charge follows arson threatDrainage investigationThe city council has investigated the condition of private drainage at 39 Lyttelton residences. Nearly a third of the properties were found to have drainage faults significant enough to cause damage to both their own and neighbouring properties. Further investigations will start immediately for those properties, and investiga-tions into private drainage faults will be extended throughout Lyttelton. Car taggingSumner residents’ cars were tagged early last week on the Esplanade, Hardwicke and Dryden streets. If you see anyone suspiciously loitering around the area, report it to police. DeputationProject Lyttelton representatives made a deputation to the Lyttelton-Mt Herbert Community Board last week, outlining their garage sale success at its current site on Canterbury St and their wish to stay there. The community board decided it’s looking at the possibility of a 12-month lease, taking into ac-count the views of the Lyttelton Toy Library and Recreation Centre and use of Project Lyttelton’s portal.
Burial plotsDiamond Harbour residents Jim and Ann Thornton outlined to the Lyttelton-Mt Herbert Community Board their concerns regarding the lack of available plots at the Dia-mond Harbour Memorial Gardens. They said the community needs to be informed of this and the city council’s plan for future burials. The community board informed them that the lowest terrace of the gardens is not suitable for plots, but it will develop a plan for the uppermost area and inform local residents.

After serving six terms as a Christ-church electorate MP, Ruth Dyson is now a seasoned campaigner.
But the current Port Hills MP is taking no chances this election.
After choosing not to take a La-bour list position, winning the seat is now her only chance to get back into Parliament – and she said she wants it that way.
“I don’t have a plan B. I don’t want to be on the list, I want to be an electorate MP. That’s my pas-sion, that’s my love.”
In spite of conceding that boundary changes in the electorate had gone in National’s favour, she said she was determined to win not only the seat but the party vote for Labour.
“It’s the role of a local MP to ad-vocate on not only individual is-sues and claims but wider issues. If we were in government we could change the policies, but if we’re not in government I can do very little.
“I can get the attention of the in-
surance companies, but not tackle any big issues.”
She believed Labour could be-come the next government.
She said low numbers of votes for Labour in the electorate were due to 2011 being an unusual year.
“After any past disaster response, people don’t want change. People wanted support and National of-fered it, but that hasn’t lasted.”
She said a lot of her constituents felt that the Government was not on their side.
The issues most people raised in her door knocking and in neigh-bourhood meetings were still over-whelmingly earthquake related, even in areas not directly affected, she said.
She said addressing earthquake issues would be her first priority if she was voted in for another term.
The second of her priority issues was housing.
Labour housing policies she planned to campaign for included building 10,000 more houses in
Christchurch, raising the housing supplement, a rental housing war-rant of fitness scheme, and sup-porting city council social housing.
She said although many of those were city-wide issues, she believed they were still relevant to her elec-torate.
“I’ve had a large number of peo-ple speak to me about it, and the rental situation is driving them to despair. There are many young people who are paying rent, a mortgage and rates.”
She said getting concrete dates for community facilities to be built
in the area, including libraries, pools and community halls, would be another priority.
When asked why she thought she would be the best person for the role, she said that her record as an electorate MP spoke for itself.
“I work really hard for my con-stituents, because I love what I do. I get things done.”
She said the biggest challenge of her last term had been supporting the communities in her electorate through the earthquakes.
“It has been pretty overwhelm-ing for people, but supporting
them through it has been im-mensely satisfying.”
She said the connection with the hills, the sea and the estuary made her electorate unique, but the best thing about the electorate was the people in it.
Ms Dyson has served as an elec-torate MP in the area since 1999.
She served three terms as MP for the Banks Peninsula elector-ate, and two for Port Hills after the name and boundary of the elector-ate was changed in 2008.
She is currently the Labour spokeswoman for the Canterbury earthquake recovery, disability is-sues, conservation, land informa-tion and senior citizens.
The Port Hills Electorate
2011 party vote:• 14,532 votes to National• 9199 votes to Labour
2011 candidate vote:• 15,737 votes for Ruth Dyson• 12,640 votes for David Carter
2014 electorate boundary changes:• Lost parts of Bromley, Beck-enham, Sydenham, Opawa and Rapaki.• Added parts of Somerfield, Halswell, Westmorland, West-lake and Aidanfield.
No second chance for DysonWith less than a month to go until the September 20 General Election, campaigning is ramping up for the Port Hills electorate candidates. Boundary changes could play a big part in the outcome. Reporter Gabrielle Stuart talks to sitting MP, Labour’s Ruth Dyson and one of her challengers, National’s Nuk Korako.

Nuk’s race against timeFor Port Hills electorate candidate Nuk Korako, the campaign for the seat is a race against time.
He was selected as the National Party candidate in June, just over 100 days before the election, leav-ing very little time to challenge current MP Ruth Dyson.
Mr Korako is 50th on the Na-tional list and is likely to make Parliament on current polls, if he doesn’t unseat Ruth Dyson.
But four weeks out from an elec-tion nothing is guaranteed in the hurly-burly world of politics and elections.
He said he believed the elec-torate changes had helped his chances.
“I think it has gone in my favour, but what I’ll also say is you never ever take that for granted.
“The incumbent seat is a power-ful thing. But for me it’s about try-ing to work as hard as I can and make sure I can resolve the issues that are important to our peo-ple.”
He said that his focus during the campaign was meeting as many people as possible, even if that meant regularly working 15-hour days.
“I really am getting across the electorate. I’ve been meeting with a lot of the residents associations, which means I’ve been able to
get a really good handle on the things that really matter to the residents of those areas.”
But when asked to identify three things he would focus on first if he was voted in to the seat, Mr Kora-ko said they were all things that he had been aware of for some time, through his past work in the com-munity.
The first was to look into ways that the systems around insurance and EQC claims could be changed and improved.
“At the end of the day most of the low hanging fruit has been dealt with, it’s the very hard ones that are left; and that’s where I believe I can be most effective.”
The second was to work with
newly merged schools in the dis-trict, as well as with all schools in the electorate to make sure any is-sues are resolved.
He also hoped to see Evans Pass Rd reopened. He said a lot of busi-nesses in both Sumner and Lyttel-ton relied on visitors coming to the area, so having access between the suburbs was very important to them.
He believed that his biggest strengths as a candidate were his wide networks within community groups and iwi across the city.
“I want to be someone who is working hard and has a strong voice for the electorate.”
He said the biggest challenge of his campaign was motivating peo-ple to vote.
“The biggest thing that concerns me is people’s complacency.
“A lot of people are so busy with their insurance issues that they just don’t think about voting. I hope people don’t buy into the fact that National will just be a shoo-in, be-cause that is so not true.”
And if he did not win the seat, he said he would have plenty to keep him busy until the next election.
“I’d continue on. I own a busi-ness, so I’m not in it for a living. I’ve worked hard all my life, I’ve brought my family up and educat-ed them well, but I’ve always had an aspiration to be in politics. I’ve got plenty to do.”

The Sumner Surf Life Saving Club has been hit with another theft of essential equipment.
A brand new $7000 trailer was stolen from the club’s tem-porary car park on Scarborough Rd recently.
Sumner SLSC president Mur-ray Johnson said he doubts they will ever see it again.
“We are pretty resigned to the fact that it’s gone, and we’ve lodged a police report. Hopeful-ly the ratbags who did this will feel a tinge of guilt. We require these things to operate.”
As the swimming season ap-proaches, the club is forced to reapply for more funding.
But this is not the first time the club has been targeted by thieves.
Over Summer, a two stroke mixture of petrol and oil was stolen from their inflatable res-cue boats three times.
“But on a positive note – we have just received the building consent to move forward with the surf club. Gear will be stored safely once we have our club house back. We are hoping to start building later this year.”
If you have any information phone the Lyttelton and Bays police on 378 0200.

Abi Hone, Sally Summerfield and daughter Ella Summerfield will be remembered at this years’ Christ-church Primary Schools Cultural Festival.
Sumner School is dedicating their kapa haka performance to the trio, who were tragically killed in a car crash in May.
Abi and Ella were pupils at the school, and Abi was a big part of the kapa haka group last year, teacher Gwen Vine said.
“The pupils were very keen to dedicate the performance to Abi, Sally and Ella. It’s just their way of saying they’ll think of them.”
The three Sumner residents died on May 31 when Dutch business-man Johannes Appelman failed to stop at an intersection and crashed into the car they were travelling in.
Driver Shane Summerfield sur-vived, but his wife, daughter and her friend did not.
Appelman pleaded guilty to the charges, and was ordered to pay $25,000 in emotional reparation to Mr Summerfield, and had already paid an undisclosed amount to Abi’s family.
He was also disqualified from driving for 15 months.
Sumner School will be dedicating their performance, on the night of September 4, to their memory.
The school will be one of 80 groups represented at the South Island’s largest cultural festival.
Shows are being held from Sep-tember 1 to 5, from 6.45pm to 9pm.

Kidsfirst Kindergarten Redcliffs will not rebuild on its Augusta St site.
They say there are not enough young families living in Redcliffs to make it viable to rebuild.
The kindergarten has not yet decided where it will go to for a new permanent home.
Port Hills MP Ruth Dyson is criticising the decision, calling it a “catch-22”.
“People need a kindy to move to a place, but they’re saying they can’t build it until there is enough people. Redcliffs has always been a good area for families.”
She has been urging the Minis-try of Education to do something about the situation.
Kidsfirst Kindergarten chief ex-ecutive Sherryll Wilson said the decision had to be made on a fi-nancial basis.
She cited changing population demographics and a lack of a school in the area as the main is-sues with rebuilding.
“As a not-for-profit organisation with 62 kindergartens, we need to take good care that our network remains sustainable.”
The kindergarten moved to temporary premises after the Feb-ruary 2011 earthquake, but was forced out of the second build-ing last year when it underwent earthquake repairs.

A Sumner man who became a vol-unteer firefighter when most are retiring, has died.
Brian Mason was 67 when his battle with cancer came to a tragic end.
He had dreamed his whole life of becoming a firefighter.
That dream was realised at age 64, when he decided to bite the bullet and approach the local fire station.
The physical aspect of firefight-ing proved too much for Brian Mason, who was made an opera-tional support member instead.
The work was very tiring but he loved it, son Gary Mason said.
“He realised the ambition that he’d always had.”
Gary Mason said his father was a real character.
“Everyone is very sad that he’s gone. He was quite a trick. He denied that he was sick until the very end, to protect those around him.”
In the 1980s he had been given six months to live, after a bad liver problem.
He was told to eat fruit and vegetables, but soon decided that white bread, baked beans and chocolate was a better option.
“You couldn’t go out for din-ner with him, it was a total waste of time. He’d just order some hot chips,” Gary Mason said, laugh-ing.
But somehow the English expat far outlived the six months he was given, and it wasn’t until the last year that his health really deterio-rated.
“He took denial to the bitter end, I think to protect mum. But it was very obvious that it [the can-cer] was back. We didn’t recognise him from old photos. It just took him so fast,” Gary Mason said.
Brian Mason’s funeral was packed, and he was remembered in Sumner with a last siren.
His son said it was a pretty heavy moment.
“I pushed the button and a huge wind came through. That was him, we thought.”
Former Sumner resident Tanya Horo has played the lead part in an independently-produced New Zea-land film.
She will star on the silver screen tomorrow night, at the Hollywood Cinema in Sumner.
The Z-Nail Gang features Ms Horo as Mareeka, an integral part in a fight to keep mining opera-tions out of the Coromandel in the 1980s.
As a satirical eco-drama, its script
was inspired by the community who took it into their own hands to keep a corporation out of the area.
Ms Horo volunteered a month of her time, as all cast and crew did, for the production of The Z-Nail Gang because she loved the charac-ter, she said.
“I loved Mareeka’s tenacious spirit, her desire to do things the right way and her strength to not let go of her ideals, even if oth-

JuniorsThe 15th grade girls Shak-
ers recently recorded a great win against Halswell 5-4 in an end-to-end thriller at Ferrymead Park. The result ended a winless period for the team and parents were in raptures on the sideline at the fi-nal whistle. The result was due reward for the improved approach to training and pre-game warm-ups that the team has adopted. The club hopes that the girls have
enjoyed their football and believe they will continue to thrive and succeed in the game.
SeniorsThe Ferrymead Bays Premier
team also won against Halswell at the weekend.
The game was at Halswell Do-main and Bays were without 11 of their regulars. Pete Buckley from the successful division 2 team started as substitute and came on with 15 minutes remaining to as-sist the only goal, with Michael White getting the vital touch on his cross.
This ensured Bays would finish a credible third in the table, a solid finish in the first season at the club for head coach Danny Halligan, and a great platform for further success next season.
All senior club football have ended for the season now, but plans are in the final stages for the end of season awards night at English Park on September 27. The club will have the use of the English Park pitch on the afternoon of the 27th and will be hosting a number of matches between the various se-nior teams at the club. The division
2 team hope to get a game against either the premier team or the re-serves, which will be followed by games between the masters and presidents grade teams.
• The club would like to take this opportunity to thank all the sponsors, along with the volun-teers, coaches, managers, par-ents, partners, and supporters, of Ferrymead Bays Football Club, without whom the club could not operate as successfully as it does. Thanks also go to the city council for making the pitches available and keeping them maintained.

BY TANYA JENKINS, AVON-HEATHCOTE ESTUARY IHUTAI TRUST
The Avon-Heathcote Estuary Ihutai Trust and McCormacks Bay need your help to plant some 700 marshland plants in this wonderful bay.
Meet us on August 31 at 2pm on the corner of McCormacks Bay and Maffeys Rds where we will meet the city council park ranger.
With all the roadworks hap-pening around the bay at the moment it will be a nice change to see something positive hap-pening here.
We planned the timing to coincide with the low tide as we will be planting in the high tide area which should be nice and easy to put the spade into.
This is also the reason why you will need gumboots.
We should be finished about 4pm.
Another date for your diary is September 3 at 7pm, when the trust is hosting a public meeting at St Faith’s Church Hall, 46 Hawke St New Brighton.
Special guest speaker that
evening is Zac Cassels, one of the owners of The Tannery boutique shopping area in Woolston.
Mr Cassels will be talking about the family’s vision of the future of the Heathcote River adjacent to the Tannery complex.
This meeting will also be our 12th annual general meet-ing.
Refreshments will be avail-able from 6.30pm. All welcome and this is free.
The last notice for this month is the reminder that the Charlesworth Wetland Reserve maintenance group is looking for more volunteers to assist in the ongoing task of weeding and mulching.
As the planting season is nearly over we will now be focusing on removing grasses, gorse and fennel before it takes off this coming spring.
We meet with the city council park ranger at the Charles-worth St car park (off Ferry Rd) every Sunday between 2pm to 4pm. Tools and afternoon tea provided.
We look forward to seeing you there.

Kaikoura’s Premier festival looks forward to its 20th annual celebration on Saturday,
October 4. For the freshest and best from both land and sea, Kaikoura invites locals and visitors to enjoy an inspirational array of food, beverages and entertainment on offer at this year’s Seafest!
On Saturday, October 4, the Seafest opens at 10am with performances throughout the day who will ensure the atmosphere keeps buzzing as you enjoy the best ‘‘fruits de mer’’ in the world!
An impressive and diverse selection of food is presented in wonderfully creative ways, including mussels, paua, salmon, prawns, whitebait, oysters, scallops and of course crayfish, as well as game foods, vegetarian dishes, breads and cheeses. Fine food is complemented by beers and quality wines from Kaikoura, Marlborough and Canterbury.
This year the Cuisine Tent will be hosted by Jax Hamilton the 2010 Masterchef runner up, giving
three cooking demonstrations throughout the day. Cooking classes will cover sourcing and utilising a range of seafood and meats, and cooking them teppenyaki style on the barbecue. Seafest is also a colourful spectacle, with people enjoying the opportunity to dress up.
Group themes have become an entertaining highlight of the festival each year. Also catering for families, children’s entertainment is provided throughout the day.
Seafest has become known as a festival that meets the elements in style - sunshine, rain or hail - the huge centre marquee ensures revellers can enjoy the day no matter what the weather.
Tickets always sell fast, as both newcomers and faithful Seafest participants book to enjoy this annual sight, sound and taste extravaganza. As there is no gate entry, be sure to buy your ticket either online from www.seafest.co.nz or by phoning 0800 4 seafest.

More than just afashion label
Like so many Christchurch businesses, the DUAL clothing brand has not let the earthquakes slow it down. It has continued to grow in spite of losing its original
Lyttleton home and has now found stunning new premises at The Tannery, 3 Garlands Road.
This local company started out specialising in designer pants, and the runaway success led to the range being extended to include
skirts, tops and jackets. DUAL founder Caro Allison is certain that the move will bring their stunning designs to a wider audience and while still meeting the needs of their loyal customers. As well as a retail
space, she now has a mezzanine workshop for sampling and one-o� customer orders.
� at’s important because DUAL is so much more than a fashion label. � e DUAL brand is inspired by Caro’s commitment to simple, clean and � attering lines designed to befriend the silhoutette of all shapes and sizes. � e clothing is made to stand the test of time, with designs that are simple, strong and versatile, made with wool, merino, cotton and viscose from wood pulp. Stylish and durable, these designs liberate women who struggle to � nd the “perfect” � t and want the satisfaction of purchasing a well-tailored garment that will last. It is for those
people who demand a sustainable product in today’s throwaway society. DUAL has a small social and carbon footprint on the planet, and that’s why her pieces are constructed to last and last.
Caro is proud that DUAL has always been a local business. Design, pattern-making, cutting and construction take place in Christchurch to facilitate the creation of the high quality garments DUAL customers have enjoyed since the brand’s inception. And both the merino and viscose fabrics are grown and milled entirely in New Zealand.
� e clothes themselves are timeless and come in a gorgeous range of colours and
fabrics. Customers don’t have to buy “o� the rack” at DUAL. Both the new store and the online shopping option allow buyers to individualise their garments.
With demand for quality clothing becoming increasingly strong and the willing desire to keep moving forward, the journey is far from over for Caro and her team – her new location at the exciting Tannery complex just means that more and more Christchurch men and women will have the opportunity to try out this iconic brand.

Opening her artisan studio at the Tannery was the culmination of years of experience for Bridget Ellery. A trained graphic
designer, she travelled extensively using her skills in various commercial settings.
Her love of all things natural and her passionate belief in creating beautiful, hand-cra� ed pieces led Bridget to design objects that are made to inspire, bringing so� ness and beauty into people’s lives.
Bridget’s shop at � e Tannery is welcoming for customers, while providing a space for her to work on designs, ranging from homewares, stationery, jewellery and skincare products, to a highly-anticipated clothing range.
In� uenced by European cra� speople, designers and her own European heritage, Bridget produces only items of the highest quality that will continue to bring beauty into any home for many years.
� is is a positive move away from the
hand-crafted pieces
usual throw-away attitude. She believes in the old-fashioned way of working where people make products that are sought out by others. Pointing out that our current lifestyle is unsustainable, she creates items that will last and be passed on.
Her creative focus is on femininity and beauty and a desire to celebrate women. She believes that the so� , feminine touch nourishes and loves the people who come into contact with it and expresses this in all she creates.
Everything is designed, and most are made, in her studio from the � nest materials
available – all are sustainable products, organic and locally made where possible. � is ensures quality-� nished products.
� e homewares’ range, for example, is a gorgeous array of bespoke, handmade so� furnishings and wall coverings featuring delicate imagery and Bridget’s beautiful original artworks.
A touch of the sacred comes into play in a jewellery range that includes detailed hand-cra� ed rosary bracelets. Perfumes are made from the purest natural ingredients and the stationery has the most exquisite, unique
images that rejoice in all things feminine.As well as the items already available,
Bridget o� ers a bespoke service. She loves the process of sharing ideas with a customer and creating something of beauty together. Her experience as a counsellor means women working with her always feel empowered to be part of the creative process.
She welcomes visitors to her studio at � e Tannery, 3 Garlands Road, Woolston. You can contact her on 03 389 3765 or 021 485 829, or visit Bridget Ellery Design’s website www.bridgetellerydesign.co.nz.

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.

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.

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

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.

The Service & Sacrifice exhibition opened at the Tin Palace in Lyttelton recently.
The exhibition contrasts three differ-ent stories of Lyttelton residents who were called for service in World War 1.
It is also the first time the arts space on Oxford St has been opened since the February 2011 earthquakes.
The exhibition is on until August 31, open Thursday and Friday noon to 4pm and Saturdays and Sundays from 10am to 4pm.
WAR HEROES: Linda-Jean and Grady Kenix learn about Lyttelton veterans from World War 1.
Sumner School pupil Finlay Sharpe, age 7, has come up with a fundraiser to help children in Tanzania.
He produced some 130 chocolate bars and hand-drawn flags, wrapped them in silver foil and called them country bars.
He sold them, with help from
friend Raphael Shepard, also aged 7, at school.
The country bars were sold out within 15 minutes, raising $130 for teacher Andrea McKendry, who will use it to buy books for a visit to a Tanzanian school in Septem-ber.
CHOCOLATE FOR CHARITY: Finlay Sharpe and Raphael Shepard, both aged 7, of Sumner School selling chocolate bars. They raised $130 from the sales and donated this towards books for a school in Tanzania.

BY GARY MANCH, SERGEANT, LYTTELTON SUMNER AND BAYS
Well it’s been very quite lately in the Lyttelton, Sumner and Bays area.
It is fantastic – hopefully all the ratbags are behaving themselves.
I know I harp on about reporting crime, but often when I am out and about someone will mention to me that they have had damage at their property, a car has done a burnout in the street, or some other crime has taken place.
When I ask them if they have reported the incident to police, generally the answer is: “Oh you guys are too busy for minor stuff.”
We are never too busy, however, as I have mentioned before, we do prioritise our resources.
Any crime is unacceptable and we need to know about it.
While you may not get a police-man visit you, it is crucial that all offending is reported to us.
As I have mentioned a thousand times, we need to know what’s hap-pening, where and when.
We have dedicated staff working
24/7 to take complaints, record them and then assess as to what action is required.
Reporting of all crime al-lows me as of-ficer in charge
of this area to look at crime trends and advise our district command centre if we need more prevention staff to target areas of concern.
With the reduction of perma-nent staff in Lyttelton and Sumner and the move to prevention first, staff can be allocated to risk areas easily.
However, we need the statisti-cal information to support this request.
We do have a low crime rate compared to other areas in Canter-bury, but I want to keep it that way.
Reporting crime as and when it occurs allows us to work on the reduction of offending and victimi-sation.
Hopefully I have made my point, keep safe out there.
HELPING THE HUNGRY: Our Lady Star of the Sea School pupils, who are also members of the Society of St Vincent de Paul youth, have decorated a bin and placed it outside Harringtons Hair & Beauty for food collections. The food will go to needy people throughout Christchurch. From left, back row: Zoe Amelia Robinson, Kahu Cawood, Monique Thoen, Julie Harrington (owner), Mia George and Mae McLoughlin.

Enrolling now for 2015 www.linwoodcollege.school.nz
Introducing: Manu Paringatai, Head of Maori DepartmentI have been teaching for over 10 years and in that time Linwood College has been by far my most rewarding school.
I enjoy performing, watching and tutoring kapa haka and have been competing at a senior level and representing different regions for over 20 years. I am a member of Te Ahikaaroa and Te Ahikōmau Kapa Haka groups.
As the te reo Maori and Maori Performing Arts teacher it is my responsibility to ensure that these subjects are taught to the highest standard possible and that the students get the best of the opportunities available.
In Maori Performing Arts at present we are preparing for the Arts and Cultural Celebration Evening coming up in term 4. Students also have an opportunity to compete at the Waitaha Secondary Schools Regional Haka Competitions which occur bi-annually.
Arts week is an opportunity to give students who are creative or would like to have a go to showcase their talents. Over the week of 15-19 September we will celebrate the arts with a 20 / 20 Vision Art Exhibition, art on a 20cm by 20cm tile and also Linwood’s Got Talent.
STEM education is about all the things the Arts do well; raising student engagement, authentic student centred learning, hands-on projects, construct and enhancing understandings around topics or to generate or communicate ideas, collaborative and student driven.
ARTS WEEK: Showcase your talent

The Cutting Edge: The Story of Kiwi Motorsport Legend Rod Millen
by Rod MillenOne of New Zealand’s greatest rally drivers and a hill-climbing superstar tells his inspiring story for the very first time.
Daddy is My Hero by Dawn Richards & illustrated by Jane MasseyA wonderful celebration of dads - full of fantasy, fun and... fancy dress!
Rod Millen was a hero of New Zealand rallying in the 1970s. Having won several championships he quickly established himself as New Zealand’s number one driver. But thereafter Millen went on to do what very few Kiwis have achieved, finding podium success in American motorsport. He won the North American Race and Rally Championship in 1979, 1980 and 1981, then in 1989 Millen achieved perhaps his greatest feat, winning the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb, America’s second oldest motor-racing event. Writing his name into history, he went on to win the race more times than any driver. The hill-climb is often referred to as ‘Millen’s Mountain’.
Rod Millen is also a highly successful businessman. As a continuation of his off-road driving interests, he founded Millenworks in California in 1980, specialising in cutting-edge light tactical vehicles, armored and off-road vehicles and subsystems for the US military and theme parks.
Millen has recently returned to New Zealand, building a 140-acre, ocean-front estate at Hahei with a racetrack as a driveway, modeled on his favourite hill-climb corners around the world. He’s also established Leadfoot Festival, a unique weekend held every two years at the estate, bringing together a mix of classic cars, vintage motorcycles and motorsport legends, inspired by the famous British Goodwood Festival of Speed.
The Cutting Edge is Rod’s story, in his own words, of a life lived pushing the boundaries, of record-breaking off-road driving, working at the forefront of motorsport technology, and of creating the ultimate petrol-head heaven, right in his own backyard.
A child plays dressing up with Dad, and together they go on some amazing adventures. As if by magic, Dad becomes a cowboy and a knight, fights pirates and flies a spaceship, all in the course of one special day together.
This is a tender, touching tribute to all the heroic dads out there!

A POPULAR dining destinationSituated in the heart of Sumner village,
the charming Cornershop Bistro has been offering delicious dining with a contemporary neighbourhood feel
for the past 10 years and continues to go from strength to strength. With an emphasis on great service and a menu with a focus on quality, freshness and balanced flavours, it is a popular dining destination in this seaside suburb.
Open for brunch from 10am on Friday, Saturday and Sunday and for dinner from 5.30pm Wednesday to Sunday, diners are happy to go out of their way to eat at this friendly, upmarket bistro.
And don’t wonder when you consider the recognitions it has received recently: a top 10 finalist - Best Restaurant in The Press Zest Food Awards 2013; one of the top 10 recommended restaurants in Canterbury - Cuisine Magazine’s ‘Good Food Guide’ 2012 and 2013; and ‘Best Breakfast’ - Abbie Napier, The Press - Favourites for 2013.
On offer at The Cornershop Bistro this winter is the ‘bistro bites’ menu, an early bird special that allows a cheap and cheerful dining alternative. Owner Kath Cross says, this has been popular with families or those looking for an affordable option to eat out pre-movies. Four main courses selected from the usual dinner menu are available from 5.30pm to 7pm, at a reduced cost of $20 each. This includes the coq au vin, seasonal risotto, pasta plate and bangers and mash, all delicious winter warmers!
Cornershop Bistro also offers their exciting six weekly ‘Bistro Monday’ series, giving Cantabrians the opportunity to enjoy the cuisine
and wines from specially chosen European regions.
On September 8, customers can experience the magic of the Piedmont area of north-west Italy, famous for its truffles without having to leave Christchurch. Dishes such as the Brasato al Barolo (braised beef in Barolo with polenta) or the pappardelle confonduta al tartufo bianco (pappardelle with fresh white truffle fondue) will feature this evening. For only $58, diners will receive a
shared plate to start, a choice of four mains and three deserts and can select from an additional wine menu, showcasing wines from the region.
To book a table or join the invite list to the ‘Bistro Monday’ series, go to www.cornershopbistro.co.nz or telephone them on 03 326 6720, or visit

HolisticWould you like more love,
joy, abundance, adventure, passion, balance, harmony, inspiration and energy in
your life? Almora Unlimited is there to help. The move to beautiful Diamond Harbour
means their goal to support the local community with healing, self-development and relaxation will be achieved in a serene and affirming environment. Facilitators Dellaina and Ihaia understand the physical, emotional and spiritual damage that the earthquakes have caused and their purpose is to bring growth, empowerment and love to individuals and groups through healing, mentoring and guidance.
Dellaina and Ihaia love Diamond Harbour. “It’s just a ten-minute ferry ride, a place to go to for some special time out.” Many of their clients take advantage of the wonderful local walks and cafés to make their visit a full-of-wellness afternoon or morning. It’s a holistic approach that really works. Meditation, healing and self-development groups are held regularly as are residential weekends, and courses in other parts of the globe. Ihaia has also recently facilitated a seven-week ‘Tikanga’ course, teaching Maori lore, spirituality and history.
Feedback from past clients is indisputable. “I was deeply guided and inspired,” says one. Another’s life was transformed with “major positive shifts in career, relationships, spiritual growth”. Another past client used her experience to review her life. “Quite simply, Almora told me it was time to stop talking the talk and to begin walking the walk. It was the kick I needed.”
Dellaina and Ihaia also offer Almora’s amazing “your power to create” correspondence course, which has already empowered many to start creating the lives that fulfil and inspire. The five-session course is supported by manuals, CDs with subject briefings and meditations, telephone
or Skype appointments and weekly email checks, so that clients never feel alone while they are completing their life-affirming tasks.
Dellaina and Ihaia are passionate about their work with many years of experience and extensive travel to increase their own awareness. Together, they bring an expanded balance of life’s experiences to help clients live life to its fullest, to their most creative and unlimited potential.
They are available on Fridays in Ferrymead, but most clients will surely seize the opportunity to take their journey to Diamond Harbour.Visit Almora Unlinited’s website at www.almoraunlimited.co.nz, or phone them on 03 329 3035.
“When the channels between the unconscious and conscious minds are opened, the path between intuition and
action become clear. How we think and feel immediately changes the way that we perform and therefore, our reality and experience of life for the better.” - Almora Unlimited
