Wellingtons Civic Square was evacuated due to a bomb scare last week.

On Wednesday, June 15 the Wellington Central Li-brary and the Wellington City Council buildings were evacuated after a suspicious package was found.

City Councillor Paul Eagle sent a tweet at 3.42pm which

said Bomb scare at WCC Im outta here.

Police checked through the buildings and the library was quickly reopened after the package was found not to be a safety risk.

The Civic Square under-ground car park had also reopened to the public.

Wellington City Councils service centre remained closed to the public until 8am

on Thursday. City Council Chief Execu-

tive Kevin Lavery said he was pleased with the quick and calm manner in which the buildings were evacuated.

He said public safety was a priority. He also thanked Police for their quick and thorough work.

The council bomb scare came just a few weeks after classes had to be evacuated

at Victoria University when a suspicious note was found.

On Friday, May 27 Univer-sity Manager Colin Marshall had confirmed police were investigating the threat that was specific to Victorias Kelburn Campus.

Classes in the affected area were cancelled until 1pm.

The buildings also reopened once police established there was no safety risk.

Continued from page 1She said she has always

loved being in the kitchen but cooking, rather than baking, was usually her strong point.

Mahina is multi-talented, work ing as the genera l manager of the local Maori Womens Welfare League, of which she has also been a member for 14 years.

Mahina said her cousin was very close to her growing up and they were both taught to cook from a young age.

Im used to cooking huge meals at the Marae.

Mahina made a three tier German Chocolate Cake which she said took a lot of practice.

I made four of them at home before the actual chal-lenge and dropped them off to friends.

She said the whole experi-ence of cooking off against her cousin was a lot of fun.

I really enjoyed it.Mahina had never been on

television before and said the cameras took a bit of getting used to.

It was strange having all the

Keen cook to feature on Maori Television show

cameras right in front of you when youre cooking but in the end we were fi ne.

Whanau Bake Off viewers will get to see some familiar faces throughout the series

with the likes of All Black legend Buck Shelford, Mas-terChef favourite Cameron Petley, singing sensation Ria Hall and politician Te Ururoa Flavell making appearances.

Mahina and Huia will fea-ture on the second episode of the series on Thursday, June 23 and Mahina said she would watch the episode with her partner at home.

Romance novelist Kris Pear-son of Ngaio will head to a national writing conference in August to hear from some well-established international

authors. Kris will join hundreds of other aspi r ing and published writers at the countrys largest writers conference, in Auck-land.

She said the Romance Writers of New Zealand

conference has been hugely benefi cial every year she has

attended. Kris has written multiple short

stories and about 11 romance novels in her career.

About fi ve years ago me and a friend started publishing direct on Amazon, she explained.

Kris said it was a struggle to get her books printed in the beginning, but once she started making them available online they took off.

I made one free early on which now has two million copies worldwide.

The romance novelist started off as an advertising copy writer and she has always loved writ-

ing. She said the ironic thing was

that she was never a huge reader of romance but decided to get into romance writing as it was one of the more popular selling genres.

Years ago Kris attended a one-day writing workshop in Paraparaumu and from there she was hooked.

The writer was looking for-ward to attending the conference for about the 10th year in a row to learn more skills and catch up with old friends.

American screenwriting leg-end Michael Hauge will be the

highlight of the conference for Kris.

He will hold an all-day work-shop on the Friday hell be fabulous.

Kris said she is very happy doing what she is doing and does not plan to stop any time soon.

I cant imagine ever giving up, this will be a job for the rest of my life.

For more information on the conference visit www.romancewriters.co.nz or if you would like to check out Kris work head to www.krispear-son.com.

A doctor who has been at a local practice since 1972, delivered over 2000 babies and treated countless patients is now set to retire.

The Johnsonville Medical Centre will wave goodbye to Doctor Allen Cockburn in August after his 44 years of treating the local community.

Over the next couple of months Allen will work with his patients to match them with another doctor at the practice before he retires.

When Allen graduated as a doctor from Otago Univeristy he initially worked long hours at the Wellington Hospital in maternity and gynecology.

I would be working 97 hours one week and 107 hours the next, Allen said.

He then moved out to Khandallah but continued to work in maternity for a further eight or nine years.

Allen decided to join a practice in Johnsonville in 1972 where there was just one other doctor and no practice nurses.

It was a different time when I first came here, Allen explained. Broadmeadows and Paparangi didnt even exist.

As the practice and the local popula-tion grew, Allen and his colleague had to shift to bigger buildings until they finally moved to Moorefield Road about 25 years ago.

Allen said one of the hardest things about retiring would be saying good-bye to the patients he had treated for years.

I have grown close to many fami-lies.

When he retires, Allen will focus on his hobbies which include fi shing and photography.

Ill miss the people not the paper work, he laughed.

A local teacher has been pre-sented with his prizes on Friday after winning the Warehouse Stationarys most inspirational teacher award.

Wadestown teacher Richard Smith was awarded with the Inspirational Teacher award dur-ing a school assembly on Friday.

Richard was overwhelmed by the support and appreciation he had received

This is an amazing day, he said to the assembly.

It is very special to have someone say something like this about you, but nothing I do I do by myself its a team effort, he said.

The teacher was the overall winner, surpassing 5537 other nominations in the fi fth year of the inspirational teacher cam-paign.

The nomination written by a parent of one of Richards students, Maria Edwards, ex-plained why this teacher is one of the best.

After having children in education for the past 18 years I knew Richard was not an ordinary teacher.

For the past 18 months, he has given my daughter and every other child in his year seven and eight class the gift of a lifetime - the ability to believe in themselves and the skills to learn in the way that best suits them, the nomination stated.

Warehouse Stationerys busi-ness development manager Mata Te Pania said the competition has gone from strength to strength every year.

It is something people really get behind.

We all know how teachers go above and beyond the call of duty, she said.

Husband of Richards nomina-tor, Ant Edwards explained why the couple wanted to give something back to Richard.

As soon as we met Richard we knew there was something exceptional about him.

We wanted to do something nice for him so Maria decided

Wadestown teacher Richard Smith receives his award for New Zealands most inspirational teacher.

New Zealands Most Inspirational Teacherto nominate him for the most inspirational teacher award, he said.

Richard received a number of gifts including a $5000 travel card, a $200 gift card, a box of stationery and a Notebook.

Principal Sally Barrett thanked Richard for his contri-bution to the school.

Today we are celebrating Mr Smiths amazing achievement.

Thank you for your contribu-tion through your energy, vital-ity, passion and commitment to childrens education, she said.

Richard and his family will be heading over to Cambodia early next year to educate children and help those in need.

Youth awarded for community involvement By Sharnahea Wilson

The Johnsonville Youth Awards saw another successful year with 19 young students being awarded for their efforts over the past year.

Chair of the Youth Award Trustees, Chris Kirk-Burnnand, said the event held in John-sonville shopping centre, on October 22, was a great success and the Trust is looking to grow the event even further.

Each year there are so many outstanding applicants that im-press the Trustees with their involvement in the wider com-munity.

The Trust is focused on youth development and giving grants

to young people to help with education, sport and the arts, Chris said.

One of last years awardees Richard Kay spoke on the night.

Richard captained the Under 19 mens Underwater Hockey Team and went on to win a Gold medal for New Zealand.

Local winners this year includ-ed Francis Rankin of Newlands College for having received one of the highest awards a St Johns cadet leader can attain be-ing selected to represent New Zealand for St Johns youth at international competitions.

Laila Smith of Onslow College was also awarded for her success in gymnastics and circus arts, as well as her keen leadership

skills in helping others. MP Peter Dunne was the

guest speaker on the night and presented this years awards.

Johnsonville Youth Grants has now granted over $565,000 to 325 young people since its establishment in 1987.

Core funding this year came from Autoshop Group which has donated over $260,000 in the last ten years.

For over 20 years the awards have been hosted at the John-sonville Rotary Club.

The move to Johnsonville shopping centre is a step to-wards getting greater involve-ment from the North Wellington business community, Chris said. Charlotte Hollywood receiving her award from MP Peter Dunne.

A Sri Lankan food fair will be held at the Johnsonville Community Centre on Saturday November 7 from 10am to 2pm. The local Sri Lankan dance academy is hosting the food fair in order to fundraise towards the cost of costumes for their dancers. On the day attendees can enjoy the taste of Sri Lankan rice and curry, string hoppers, kotthu, thosai, Sri Lankan savouries, sweets and drinks. Go along on the day to support the dance academy and enjoy some authentic Sri Lankan cuisine.

After over 20 years in existence the lo-cal Probus Club has met for the last time.

Probus Clubs run internationally and are clubs for retired or semi-retired busi-ness or professional people.

Johnsonvilles Mary Mason, who had been the most recent president of Probus, said the fact that the club would not con-tinue was a real loss to the community.

I think its very sad the club has been going for over 20 years.

Mary said when she fi nished her term as president nobody wanted to take over the role.

Nobody wanted to be president and nobody wanted to be treasurer.

You cant have a club without offi cers.Mary said the whole club had a vote

on whether or not to keep the club alive,

but the majority of the members voted to discontinue.

I have been president three times already and I thought it was time for someone else to take over, Mary explained.

Because none of the 40-50 members wanted to step into the vacant leadership roles, the club was forced to discontinue.

To commemorate their last meeting, all of the club members got together and had a dinner.

They decided the left over money from their club fees should go to the Welling-ton Free Ambulance.

Wellington Free Ambulance was cho-sen because it is such a good organisa-tion. We are so lucky to have it here its lovely for the community.

Mary said a womens group will still continue to run.

One outstanding Newlands teacher has been awarded with an Australian Scholarship Group National Excellence in Teaching Award, making his students and colleagues proud.

Newlands College drama teacher Jerome Cargill was one of 20 regional recipients from around New Zealand to be awarded the honour after being selected from just under 300 nominations.

College Principal Grant Jones presented the award to Jerome in front of the New-

Newlands College Principal Grant Jones (left) with Drama teacher and excellence award winner Jerome Cargill. PHOTO: Sharnahea Wilson

lands staff at a special morning tea on Friday. Grant explained how Jerome was nomi-

nated due to his huge contributions to the school with his work on the annual produc-tion, the school blog, the Noscars, as a year 12 Dean and more.

I often worried about Jerome burning out, but he seems to thrive from all of this.

Jerome was humbled by his award and said it was something he never expected to receive.

I dont work here as an individual, I work among a whole school community.

There is such a fabulous culture of teaching here, Jerome said, pointing out how he could not have won the award without the help of his peers.

The awards give the chance for people to formally recognise hard working and in-novative teachers who inspire young people.

Jerome now has to complete a short essay and an interview in order to be considered for a national award which will go to the top six teachers in the country.

If he makes it to the fi nal six he will win a national award along with a $5000 scholar-ship.

National award recipients will be an-nounced in September.

Wadestown Primary School chil-dren feasted on a hangi last week in celebration of Matariki.

Matariki is Maori for both the name of the Pleiades star cluster and the season of its fi rst rising in late May or early June.

It is the marker of the beginning of the Maori New Year, and Wades-town School students and staff celebrated Matariki by enjoying a traditional Maori hangi.

Ten-year-old Jack Fraser of the Ngati Tuwharetoa tribe explained how the hangi was made. He said the food was put into baskets in the ground with wet sacks on top of it.

A fl ame thrower was used to heat the rocks the food sat on and the chicken, kumera, potatoes and car-rots were left to cook underground for about four hours.

One of the six cooks who helped out on the day was Ben Hingston whose daughter was on the Wades-town School Whanau Group.

The retired teacher travelled all the way down from Rotorua to help out.

When I was a teacher I used to put on a lot of hangis for fundraisers, Ben explained.

Logan Mead, who is in charge of Te Reo education at Wadestown, said when he was growing up he never learned anything about Matariki.

Now schools are embracing it and putting Maori culture at the forefront

Sharing a hangi for Matariki

of childrens minds, he said. Logan said Maori education was

weaved through all aspects of educa-tion at Wadestown School.

We integrate it through every-thing we always do Maori greet-

ings in the mornings.He said it was wonderful the

students got the chance to try a traditional hangi, and from what he heard they all seemed to really enjoy it.


Wellingtonians are being encouraged to make time for the citys elders. National Volunteer Week runs from 19 to 25 June 2016, with the theme make time.

Johnsonvilles Pauline OSullivan, who has been volunteering at Enlivens Cash-mere Home since 2014, says volunteering with the elderly is something more people should consider.

Its seeing people enjoying their life, perking up and participating more. Its about seeing people improve, says Pauline.

I think a lot of people would fi nd volun-teering with the elderly really rewarding.

Paulines volunteer role at Cashmere Home sees her visiting for a couple of hours each week to read to and chat with the residents.

I read articles and do the newspaper quiz with them. I encourage discussion and everybody has great opinions and great knowledge.

Pauline is encouraging others to try their hand at volunteering with Enliven.

Its about making an effort and fi nding time.

Cashmere Home recreation offi cer Liz Rivadelo explains Enliven has a six homes across the Wellington region and volunteers

can take on various roles at times that suit them.

Our homes are always looking for volun-teers for all sorts of roles, like helping with activities or just spending one-on-one time with the residents. There are so many ways people can make a difference, says Liz.

For example, at Cashmere Home were looking for volunteers to help run a ladies group and also someone who is able to run our Kids Group by organising activities that young children will enjoy.

Enliven, part of the not-for-profit or-ganisation Presbyterian Support central, operates Cashmere Home and Cashmere Heights Home in Johnsonville, Huntleigh Home in Karori and Longview Home in Tawa, as well as Kilmarnock Heights Home in Berhampore and Woburn Home in Lower Hutt To express your interest in volunteering with Enliven, free phone 0508 TO HELP (that's 0508 86 4357) or email [email protected]. For more information about Enliven's homes and services in the Wellington region, free phone 0508 ENLIVEN (that's 0508 36 54 83) or visit www.enlivencen-tral.org.nz.

Victoria Universitys Writ-ers on Mondays Programme is set to present leading writ-ers and exciting new voices this year.

A mix of new and exciting talents will showcase what is currently happening in the world of New Zealand writing.

Headlining Victoria Uni-versity of Wellingtons Inter-national Institute of Modern Letters (IIML) 2016 season are award-winning New Zea-land authors Anne Kennedy, Patricia Grace and Jenny Bornholdt.

Director of IIML Professor Damien Wilkins said the combination of new voices and established writers in Writers on Mondays was wonderful.

This series is a brilliant fi x-ture on the literary calendar and its free.

The programme will kick off in style with the inno-vative and genre-bending 2016 Victoria University of Wellington Creative New Zealand Writer in Residence Anne Kennedy in conversa-

tion with Pip Adam about how different genres require a writer to use time in differ-ent ways.

Leading writers to attend weekly programme

By Sharnahea Wilson

The Newlands Community Centre has been decked out with creative artworks by local stu-dents in celebration of Matariki.

Community Centre Advocate Pippa Cubey said the centre liked to celebrate the occasion every year, but this year it was a rather special event.

The year three and four stu-dents from Bellevue Primary School created art about Matariki to display here.

Pippa went along to the school

last week to tell the children about Matariki and then left it up to them to create art work.

The students made self por-traits, hands reaching up to stars, and kites which all celebrated the themes of Matariki.

The pictures were hung in dif-ferent areas of the community centre and the students attended their very own art exhibition opening there on Wednesday, June 15.

Eight-year-old Alex Mabey said in preparation for Matariki they got to watch a video of someone

reading a legend of Matariki. Year three-four team leader

Anna Borrer said the students also celebrated by having fish and chips at the school with their families and participated in activities.

It has been nice building links with the local community.

The artwork will be up until at least the end of the month, Pippa said.

Everyone is welcome to go along to the community centre to check out the childrens creative pictures.

Creative art works for cultural celebration


In Johnsonville a house in Phillip Street left locked and secure was discovered on return by the owner with the front door unlocked. A digital piano keyboard was stolen. A silver late model Ford Falcon pulled into a service station in Johnsonville Road and a female passenger got out and used self service to fi ll the tank from the pump. When the pump stopped the passenger jumped back into the car which sped away without paying. Police have the registration plate details but it remains to be seen if the registration is genuine or if the vehicle was using stolen plates.

In Newlands two garden chairs, not visible from the road, were stolen from the garden of a house in Mark Avenue. In Bracken Road the cable connected to a TV aerial for a fl at was wrenched out. A red Suzuki Escudo station wagon parked overnight within a property in Wakely Road was stolen. The vehicle had an insecure door and contained diving equip-ment. In Stewart Drive a white Ford Laser station wagon was stolen. The owner was looking out of his window and saw it being reversed down his driveway and immediately called the Police. The vehicle has not yet been recovered.

A white Mitsubishi L300 van parked briefl y in Lyndfi eld Lane during the afternoon was broken into via a forced front door. A backpack, wallet, drivers licence and various trade certification documents were stolen.

In Khandallah the garden of a house in Rama Crescent was entered and the outboard motor was taken from a parked boat together with a locator beacon at-tached to it. In Mandalay Terrace a silver Toyota Landcruiser Prado parked on the road was entered via a smashed driver side window. A radar detector and a pair of sunglasses were stolen.

EYE ON CRIME

By Rachel Binning

Volunteering is in New-lands man Chad OHaras blood.

A strong family affiliation with volunteer firefighters, going back to his great grandfather, was a strong incentive for Chad to keep up the family volunteering tradition.

As well as being a volun-teer for the Newlands Fire Service, Chad has been volunteering with the Wel-lington Free Ambulance

(WFA) for nearly two years.It was a natural pro-

gression for me to join up [with WFA] and help the community out along with learning new skills and making lifelong friends, Chad said.

Chad decided to join the WFA as he had been attend-ing an increasing number of medical calls with the Fire Service.

I wanted to learn more about the medical side.

My f la tmates a t t he time were full-time WFA

paramedics. I used to go out on shift with them as an observer and got hooked, Chad said.

Chad is an emergency am-bulance service volunteer who is expected to pull his weight equally to his paid paramedic colleagues.

His duties include vehicle cleaning and checks, drug checks, patient care, assess-ment, driving and respond-ing to 111 calls.

[WFA] support me in learning, they support our community in emergencies.

I support them to make a difference.

Over the last year I com-pleted around 1300 hours of volunteer time with WFA, Chad said.

Chad said WFA was the best organisation he had volunteered with.

Volunteers are treated as a member of the team not as a volunteer.

Do you know a Local Hero? e Independent Herald, in

conjunction with the John-sonville Shopping Centre will be running a new 'Local Hero' feature. In our up-coming is-sues we would like to celebrate those people in the community

who might not be getting the recognition they deserve for the inspiring deeds they do.Each month we will choose one Local Hero from the local community who has done a good deed (sorry no volunteer

groups as we want to recog-nise independent individuals). This can be anything from someone raising money for a sick child, to someone dedicat-ing their time to helping people in need. e feature will give

people the chance to thank those people in the community whose good deeds might go unrecognised. Each Local Hero will be interviewed for a story with a photo and will receive a voucher for the Johnsonville

Shopping Centre. If you would like to nominate someone who fits the bill, contact Sharnahea Wilson at [email protected] or on 5871660.

Dear Ed, Until now, I thought that I was the only person that has rarely, if ever, seen a cyclist in the cycle lanes. But it transpires that what I suspected is correct from the survey conducted in your June 15 edition page 8. Surely, the council conducted a "survey/

analysis" to determine that they were required prior to commit-ting expenditure to the project. I suspect that it was "pushed through" by Celia Wade-Brown who has abused her position as Mayor to force cycle lanes on Wellingtonians, whether they are

wanted, required, or not. There is controversy about the cycleway in Island Bay. But to cast further doubt on Wade-Brown's cred-ibility, according to the article (on page 10 of IH this issue) that she welcomed the release of the Mor-rison Lowe report on Wellington's

urban cycleway programme, promoting the waste of more valuable Council funds and Foster agrees with it, along with all the other "lambish" councillors. Are we being naive in hoping there are some Councillors with the for-titude to say "enough is enough",

let's get back to basics and run an effi cient and economically viable council without lumbering our ratepayers with more increases to cover money wasting projects.

AbridgedBrian Whetton

Dear Ed, There seems to be a misconception that virtually no one uses the cycle lanes in Johnsonville. I refer to your opinion piece (opposite the full page car advertisement) where a couple of people thought they arent used at all. I decided to stop at the

corner of Broderick and John-sonville roads on the way to work on Monday morning to see for myself. Within an hour I was able to take photos of 45 cyclists using the cycle lanes. It is common for the number of cyclists to be underestimated, and this is most likely because

they take up less space than other road users. Johnsonville cyclists may seem invisible but they do exist and they certainly are benefi ting from the cycle lanes.

Jonathan KennettNgiao

Cycle lanes benefi cial

Cyclists rarely seen

Dear Ed, Kiwibank is ideal for us. Plus total services, banking. Postal, billing, regis-terations etc. Why is Kiwibank closing down on the 27th of July? No written notice was given to the customers. It is an ideal location now, it is safe with a lot of free parking, and close to the mall where people can use it daily. It also serves Kelburn, Northland, and Ma-kara. The closest Kiwi Bank is at Lambton Quay which is over 4km away. That will be a huge cost for the customer travelling

time. In addition to that, only pay parking is available. The postage side is moving to the Karori Mobil petrol location, which is a dangerous access. When travelling from the south, you cannot turn right to the petrol side. People walking to the petrol station endanger themselves from fast mov-ing traffic. What are Karori people going to do without the Kiwibank services?

AbridgedPeter HermensNorthland

Low blow for KaroriDear Ed, Johnsonville is a great area with

access to good facilities such as medical centres, vet clinics, banks, two supermarkets, swimming pool, parks, library, hairdressers, gyms, profes-sional practices, good transport to the city and many other amenities. Sadly the Johnsonville Mall with its limited shops is rather depressing and it needs a total makeover and spruce up to cater for current residents and to attract more people from outside the area. I walked through the mall last Thursday night about 7pm (late night) and only saw a handful of people there. Lets hope that some work can be done to save this mall which many years ago was vibrant and busy but is no longer.

Megan Barber, Johnsonville

Dear Ed, It's rather telling that there was unanimous comment in your paper last week on the Johnsonville Road cycleway. It's an absolute white elephant that nobody uses. I would like to know where is the ownership of this mess from our ward councillor Justin Lester? He's been holding Wade-Brown's hand through all of Wellington's cycleway drama

as Deputy Mayor and if I'm not mistaken he was the one who chaired the decision to ram the Island Bay cycleway through. And yet he keeps quiet. I think our local "Mr Cycleway" should start fronting up for these decisions, especially the mess he's helped create in Johnsonville.

John Barry Khandallah

Cycle lanes unnecessary

Mall rather depressing Further comments on the Johnsonville Mall:The Mall has a really great atmosphere, and

older folk really appreciate the fact that it is there and so user friendly. Stride executives would do a wonderful service if they incorporated plans for a small cinema in their complex. Philip Gibbs

We prefer to shop elsewhere. The mall is dete-riorating. Judy Kirby

Has Helene Ritchie actually been inside the Johnsonville Mall lately? Shops are closing down and not being replaced, the selection for shopping is dismal, and the foodcourt could do with several more choices. There is less and less reason to go there. If the supermarket closed, the car park would be half empty. Marty Pilott

Marsden School students got the opportunity to take part in a worldly music workshop recently.

Year eight students from Mars-den participated in a special musical experience when they were involved in a Gamelan Workshop as part of their World Music Programme.

Gamelan is the traditional en-semble music of Indonesia often played to accompany dance,

puppet performances and cer-emonies.

Made up predominantly of per-cussive instruments, the Marsden girls really enjoyed the opportu-nity to play the metallophones with mallets and hand drums called kendhang which register the beat.

There were also big gongs and other instruments which when played together formed a

distinctive sound, very familiar to anyone who has been to In-donesia.

Marsden School thanked Budi Putra, who was the Cultural representative from the Indone-sian Embassy and Jo Hilder and Helen O'Rourke from Gamelan Wellington based at the School of Music Victoria University for putting on this amazing workshop.

Year eight students Paige and Sylvie enjoy their recent Gamelan Workshop.

The Karori Community Centre, the Johnsonville Community Centre and the Khandallah Cornerstone Resource Centre Trust Board are among the initiatives set to receive some $1.3 million in grants.

The Wellington City Coun-cils community, sport and recreation committee del-egated funds to multiple community facilities and initiatives during their meet-ing on July 15.

The committee approved funding contracts, for 24 community organisations, which will commence on July 1.

Mayor Celia Wade-Brown said while many initiatives were in need of financial suppor t , organ isat ions working on the frontline to end homelessness and aid refugee settlement met the criteria and were particularly worthy.

We a l so com m it t e d further support to ending

homelessness through the Te Whakamura partnership which includes the Soup Kitchen, the Downtown Community Ministry and Ngati Kahungunu ki Poneke Community Services, and to refugee resettlement in-cluding ongoing support for English Language Partners.

Committee Chair Council-lor Paul Eagle said the fund-ing went to those organisa-tions with a track record of delivering value and a return for ratepayers.

The recipients of the grants include: Johnsonville Com-munity Centre which will receive $49,290 between 2016 and 2019, the Karori Community Centre will receive $56,000 between 2016 and 2019, Khandallah Cornerstone Resource Cen-tre Trust Board - Khandal-lah Town Hall will receive $44,580 between 2016 and 2019, and Aro Valley Com-munity Council Inc will receive $52,000 until 2019.

Over $1 million of community grants approved

Major changes are on their way for Wellingtons iconic Cable Car which is currently out of action due to a major equipment upgrade.

A $1.5 million upgrade of Cable Car Lane started last week and, once fi nished, it will make getting to and from the Cable Car a much more uplifting experience.

Between now and October, the lanes leaky old canopy will be replaced with a glass one that will let in the sunshine.

Wellington Mayor Celia Wade-Brown said the new terminus and lookout at the top, which opened in 2014, was looking great.

From the recent terminus and lookout at the top to the Lambton entrance, the journey will be lighter and more exciting.

The old ticket booth will also

be replaced and the entry gates repositioned to make it easier to queue and buy tickets.

The lane will be open as usual while the work happens so people can still visit the food outlets, bar and other businesses within.

Councillor Nicola Young, Port-folio Leader for Central City Projects, said the planned upgrade is part of the programme to reju-venate the citys laneways.

Cable Car Lane is the gateway to one of Wellingtons most iconic tourist attractions but its also a key feature of Lambton Quay, our premier shopping precinct. Its facelift is long overdue and, once completed, will make Wel-lingtonians proud.

Councillor Andy Foster, who chairs the Councils Transport and

Urban Development Committee, said the Council had planned to upgrade Cable Car Lane next year but had brought some of the work forward to coincide with the Cable Car shut-down.

We are working with the owner of the adjacent buildings and the Cable Car operators to plan and programme this work.

The Cable Car is expected to be back in service from August 1 and the work around the ticket booth will be fi nished by then. Other work in the lane will continue until October. Buses to the Cable Car lookout are leaving from outside on Lambton Quay every 20 minutes while the Cable Car is out of action: 7am7pm weekdays and 8.40am6pm weekends.

Wellington has a truly rich and diverse population.

Red Cross marked World Refu-gee Day 2016 with a vibrant event at the Anglican Chinese Mission in Thorndon on Saturday, June 18.

Delicious aromatic and exotic food, diverse craft and colourful, live cultural performances from around the globe captivated event

attendees. Red Cross Wellington Service

Centre Coordinator Margaret Carson said the event was a cel-ebration and acknowledgement in the value of former refugees contribution to our society.

Red Cross volunteers buzzed around the hall talking with refugee families, forging new friendships and checking how adjustment to Kiwi culture was going.

Friendly fellow Syrians sup-ported a new Syrian refugee, along with his baby, who came to Wellington two days ago and speaks no English.

A young woman from Iran came to New Zealand as a refu-gee fi ve years ago knowing no English.

Now in fl uent English with a proud New Zealand accent she explained her dream of being a pilot, which would not have been

a possibility for her in her home country.

Happy faces stood in stark contrast to the extraordinary circumstances these ordinary people had faced and the diffi cul-ties they experienced in getting to New Zealand.

This year Red Cross launched the Stand in their Shoes cam-paign via social media to coin-cide with World Refugee Day.

It was hoped swapping shoes

and stories would help break down barriers, forge common understanding and friendship in the community.

To all 600 Red Cross volunteers across New Zealand in Volunteer Week Carson said we could not do what we do in the community without our dedicated and hard-working volunteers. For more information go to: www.redcross.org.nz/get-involved/stand-their-shoes/

Local homeowners have just a few days left to apply for free insulation under the existing government scheme.

Social enterprise Sustainabil-ity Trust said homeowners and landlords in Johnsonville, Porirua and Upper Hutt were especially encouraged to apply.

Warm Up New Zealand: Healthy Homes is a government-funded scheme which provides free ceil-ing and under-fl oor insulation to

low-income families. The scheme will finish in its

current form on June 30. It will carry on for another two years but with different eligibility criteria.

This week will be the last chance for homeowners who have Com-munity Services Cards to access free insulation insulation subsi-dies after June 30 will only apply to landlords.

Landlords can also access 60 per cent subsidies on insulation

if their tenants meet the criteria before June 30.

Sustainability Trust can provide the assessment, organise the subsi-dies and install the insulation but homeowners and landlords would need to get in touch before the fi nal date to make that happen.

This is the last chance home-owners have to access free insula-tion we have insulated more than 6000 homes through the Warm Up New Zealand scheme over the last

six years, and were really keen to see those last few households make use of the funding before June 30, Sustainability Trust chief executive Phil Squire said.

We strongly urge anyone who thinks they might be eligible to get in touch with us as soon as possible. Insulation can be the dif-ference between a miserable cold winter and a warm, healthy home, so its very much worth doing.

Homeowners who have a Com-

munity Services Card and have children under 17 in the house, people older than 65, or ongoing health issues are eligible to access free insulation. The house would also need to have been built before year 2000. If homeowners or landlords think they are eligible, they need to contact Sustainability Trust to arrange an assessment as soon as possible they can call 0508 78 78 24.

Carpetech helps its customers look after their carpet so they can really get the best out of it.

The business, based in the city centre, has been maintaining, repairing and cleaning carpets across the capital for almost 30 years.

Owner Boyce Jenner said his job was to extend the life of carpet.

People are quite quick to say that carpet is shot because it has a few ripples or doesnt look new anymore, Boyce said.

My job is to do everything that can be done to get a few more years out of our customers carpet.

It is just like having a linen suit dry cleaned. We can make carpet look fresh again.

Boyce said he accidentally fell into the job while working as a carpet cleaner.

I think carpet is a wonderful invention and its not that long ago that carpet was not a wall to wall item, it was usually a carpet square that sat in the room.

Now it is something that is expected and taken for granted.

Even though it is not as expensive now it is still a reasonably costly outlay and with some care you can get full value.

Technicians at Carpetech do everything from alterations to repairs, and even re-stretch carpet, removing ripples and wrinkles, Boyce said.

It is the sort of work that carpet layers dont really like to do. Its fi ddly, its a small job which requires a bit of patience but its what we love to do.

For more information, call 021 434 232 or 385 4085, or visit www.carpetech.co.nz

Renovating can be costly and inconvenient, but can also increase the value and enjoy-ment of your home.

There are two main reasons why people renovate; to add to the comfort, use and value of the home, and to tidy it up to sell.

Before you launch into renovations, take time to consider whether the expense and disruption is justifi ed.

Consider the tastes of potential buyers, which really means keeping everything fairly neutral to appeal to a wider range of people. Not everyone likes bright feature walls or pink bathtubs.

Renovations that will increase the appeal of your home may include painting the kitchen and bathroom, or putting in some decking to give an indoor-outdoor fl ow and an increased sense of space or some landscaping.

If you are renovating to sell, it is likely that youll want to give the house an inexpensive makeover to freshen it up and make it more attractive to buyers. For example, repainting, repapering, or changing dated or damaged fixtures, such as a cracked basin in the bathroom.
