WINNING PERFORMANCE: Amy Barry and Nick Brown danced their way to a perfect 10 in Strictly
Sumner at the weekend, making them the winning couple in the fundraiser event. The pair danced for
the Christchurch Coastal Pathway. They were one of 10 couples to dance in front of a crowd of about 500
supporters at Sumner School hall on Saturday. Each couple raised money for chosen Sumner charities,
organisations and clubs.

A public funding campaign to
raise the remainder of the money
to rebuild Lyttelton Timeball
Station has been delayed.
Heritage New Zealand was
to start its public funding push
for the remaining $200,000-
$300,000 to rebuild the category
1 heritage building in March.
Construction was scheduled to
start in July.
However, Heritage NZ southern
region general manager
Sheila Watson said the funding
campaign had been postponed
while the final project costings
were being sought.
She said there were also site
access issues being worked
through with Stronger Christchurch
Infrastructure Rebuild
Team and the city council.
Heritage NZ’s board will meet
on May 19 to discuss the funding
campaign and the rebuild as a
whole, she said.
Following that meeting it
would be clearer as to when the
final funding push, and construction
would start, she said.
Built in 1876, Lyttelton
Timeball Station provided ships
in Lyttelton Harbour with a
timekeeping service. It marked
noon by dropping the timeball
from the tower.
It slowly crumbled in the
August 2010, February 2011 and
June 2011 earthquakes and was
later demolished.
It has been meticulously 3D
scanned so it will be rebuilt exactly
the same as the original.
About $3 million has been
raised through significant donations
for the rebuild, which was
originally expected to cost about
$3.4 million.

60km/h not low enough
COURT
BRIDGET RUTHERFORD
The speed limit through Little
River could be lowered to
60km/h, but a community group
says it is not enough.
The Love Little River Group
presented a 1000 signature
petition to New Zealand
Transport Agency in November,
calling for the speed limit on
State Highway 75 to be lowered
from 70km/h to 50km/h.
After investigations into the
possibility, the transport agency
has decided it could drop the
speed limit to 60km/h, but no
lower.
Public consultation would
need to be carried out before
the change could be made,
however.
Love Little River
Group founder
Marcus Puentener
(right) said the
response “was not
good enough”.
He said the transport
agency was not taking into
account what the community
wanted, which was a speed limit
of 50km/h.
“We gathered more than 1000
signatures and that has no bearing
at all,” he said.
“People have said they are

disappointed but they will live
with it, but for me, why live
with it if we want 50km/h we
should get 50km/h.”
Mr Puentener said the group
would fight to have the limit
lowered to 50km/h.
Residents have been lobbying
for the change for about 10 years,
saying the drop would improve
the safety of the road, which is
the main route to Akaroa.
Although there had been no
fatal crashes on the stretch of
road in the past five years, residents
wanted the change made
before there was one.
The Love Little River Group
installed signs on either side of
the township to tell motorists to
slow down last year.
Little River Hotel owner
Kathy Bisman said the
community had grown in
population, and the speed limit
needed to be lowered to 50km/h.
“There are more residents
with smaller children too.”

Board would discuss the

transport agency’s proposal at
its meeting today.
Chairwoman Pam Richardson
said the petition clearly showed
people in the community
wanted a change to be made.
“The community has already
made its mind up.”
HAVE YOUR SAY: Do you think a
drop in the speed limit through
Little River from 70km/h
to 60km/h is low enough?

DELAYS AT TUNNEL
Motorists using Lyttelton Tunnel
will need to prepare for slight

Transport Agency journey manager
Lee Wright said the tunnel
would be reduced to one lane
around the maintenance crew,
so there would be slight delays.
Fuel tankers and other dangerous
goods carriers would not be allowed
access during this time.

Get familiar with rules
and watch your speed
Over the past summer season,
I have been very fortunate to
travel extensively around the
Canterbury region in my position
with Environment Canterbury as
a navigation safety officer.
I am not only responsible for
the local bays and harbours, but
also every other waterway in
our 46,000 sq km region where
recreational boating takes place.
I have to admit it is a privileged
position to be in, working
in one of the most beautiful
geographically diverse regions
in New Zealand and dealing
with genuine people who are out
there enjoying themselves on our
waterways.
We do have one or two ratbags
who choose to ignore the rules
and put other people at risk
through their actions, but to be
honest these are the minority.
As we are nearly at the end
of our boating season, I think it
is time to reflect over the past
summer, and look at some things
that have cropped up in my role.
One thing that comes to my
attention time and time again,
is the lack of knowledge about
the rules on the waterways.
The Navigation Safety Bylaws
2010, Maritime Rules 22 and
91 all of which prescribe how
we can operate our vessels in
Eugenie Sage,
Green MP
Lyttelton Port
is important to
Canterbury and
the country as a
freight hub and
a connection
to the world. We need a thriving
port. We also need one which
recognises its connection with
Lyttelton and helps make the
town an interesting place to live
and visit.
Pirate’s Corner
a safe manner are crucial to
know if you are operating a
boat on the water, be it a kayak,
or powerboat, it makes no
difference.
My advice if you do not know
what these rules refer to, is to
spend some time over the winter
with your slippers on in front of
the fire and have a good read of
them, just use uncle Google and
they are easy to find, if you have
difficulty in understanding them
phone me at my office and I will
answer any queries.
Speed too close to other water
users or the shore is another
issue that crops up time after
time, the rules are simple, if you
are within 200m of the shore, or
another structure, then you must
adhere to the 5 knot speed limit,
unless the area is a designated,
open speed area or a specified
reserved area such as a water
Lyttelton-Mt Herbert Community
Board chairwoman,
Paula Smith recently called for
the Lyttelton Port Company to
retain Number 4 wharf instead
of demolishing it as the port
company plans to do, along with
wharves 5 and 6. They also predate
1900.
Keeping No 4 wharf and
opening it to the public
would recognise the wharves’
central role in the history and
development of Lyttelton,
and their contribution to the
ski lane. If you are within 50m
of another vessel or person in
the water, then the 5 knot rule
applies as well. There are some
exemptions to this rule, but
these do not generally affect the
normal water user, check out our
Navigation Safety Bylaws 2010,
part 2.4.2 for these.
We have had no major incidents
involving death or serious
injury involving recreational
watercraft in the region, this is
great news and one you can all
be proud of, however, we cannot
afford to rest on our laurels as
having regard to the types of
complaints we receive through
the harbourmasters office, some
of this good news is due to good
luck not management.
That’s it from me, stay safe out
there and if you are going to be
on the water wrap up warm, and
always wear your life jacket.
character of the town. It would
be a physical link between the
port and the town.
It would provide a place
where people can walk out over
the water, go fishing, and watch
the coming and going of boats.
With the Governors Bay jetty
closed because of earthquake
damage, there is nowhere on
the western side of Lyttelton
Harbour where people can do
this.
LPC’s proposals for a walkway
along some of the Dampier
A reader responds to a
suggestion that the annual
Guy Fawkes display at New
Brighton could be held at
Sumner while the pier receives
repairs:
Sarah Joseph, Redcliffs:
Yes! We would love to have
the fireworks display at
Sumner! It would be great for
the community and a fabulous
setting!
Last week Bay Harbour
News asked its readers what
they thought about the St
Andrews Hill and Bridle Path
Rds intersection, after a city
council report criticised its
layout.
Lorraine Harrison,
Mt Pleasant: I laughed out
loud when I read your article
but wasting money is not really
a laughable matter.
When the local community
found out the plan for the intersection
we were angry that it
had not been discussed with the
people who would be using it.
The city council hastily
Bay foreshore are no compensation
for being able to walk out
over the water.
The port company has had
enormous commercial benefits
from the emergency legislation
after the earthquakes. It has been
able to side-step the normal
public processes under the Resource
Management Act to push
through first a 10ha reclamation
and then a major 27ha extension.
There has been no compensation
to the community for this
organised some meetings and
many of us pointed out the
many problems and safety
issues and some retired
engineers even came up with
alternatives but it was obvious
they had made up their mind
and we were wasting our time.
How dare they now say they
were not aware of the issues.
They were told a number of
times at a number of meetings.
Now more money will
be wasted by doing a report to
find out how the mistakes were
made and how will the problems
be sorted.
The mistakes were clearly
made by not listening to
the people who drive this
intersection every day. They,
the city council and their expert
advisers knew best! What a
joke.
Luckily, I no longer have
to use the intersection at
peak time but it is still quite
disconcerting that when you are
coming off St Andrews Hill Rd
you have to give way to your
right and then dash right across
to the other side to get in the
left turning lane to the city.
Port needs to operate for community too
privatisation of coastal space
and loss of access to this part of
Te Awaparahi Bay.
A bigger and busier container
port will mean more big trucks,
more port noise, and more harbour
dredging for bigger ships.
These affect the town and the
harbour.
Keeping No 4 wharf and
opening it to the public would
be some recognition that the
port exists and operates for
the community as well as the
company.

You can’t see the cars coming
down Bridle Path Rd (due to
curve of the road) and they
travel at quite a pace. I can’t see
how Sara Templeton can make
the comment that accidents
were unlikely to be serious.
The idea that all this money has
been spent and yet accidents are
expected to be commonplace
is just so stupid it is beyond
belief.
Dr Darren Fidler, of
Redcliffs:
I see the potential safety issues
at the bottom of St Andrews Hill
Rd made the front page of Bay
Harbour News last week.
I think it’s worth pointing
out to all the users of this
intersection that if Redcliffs
School was to close, it’s going
to get a lot worse. The Ministry
of Education-appointed
transport expert downplayed
the impact of additional traffic
because it would be heading
into town from Redcliffs
anyway.
This demonstrates a clear lack
of understanding of the local issues.
What would be the impact
of half of Redcliffs School pupils
being dropped off at the already
severely congested Mt Pleasant
School and then these cars then
travelling down St Andrews Hill
Rd into this intersection?
I think most residents could
take a reasonably educated
guess at this, unfortunately the
Ministry of Education didn’t
take the trouble to understand
the safety impacts that the
school closure will have,
putting lives at increased risk.
Yet another adverse impact of
the proposed school closure
that hasn’t been considered to
date. Let’s hope an informed,
evidence based decision is made
for the sake of not only the
children of Redcliffs, but much
further afield.
Beverley Walker, of Mt
Pleasant:
I have four problems with the
intersection.
The traffic light phases, while
are good for clearing traffic
quickly when leaving the area
early morning, (ie going to the
city or Sumner) coming back
from the city isn’t so good.
I joined a queue around noon
to turn right into Bridle Path
Rd. I was ninth in the queue and
had to wait three light phases
before I got to turn. The traffic
from Sumner direction was
light. Each phase was letting
two or three cars through, but
put a bus, lorry or lorry with
trailer or concrete truck in the
queue then maybe one or two
can turn. These heavy vehicles
are slower off the mark and
some then have to go up hill –
slowly.
Another problem is the size
and shape of the island at this
same turning point. It needs
to be shaped differently at the
Ferry Rd end so these slow,
heavy vehicles can make the
turn more smoothly. It can be
rather frightening when cars
come down St Andrews Hill
Rd and very quickly cross over
the “cross-hatch” so they can
make it through the green lights
without, it seems, a care for
traffic travelling along Bridle
Path Rd to the same green lights.
Blocking on the “crosshatch”
is also a problem. Often
vehicles (some with trailers)
travelling down St Andrews
Hill Rd are waiting at right
angles to the Bridle Path Rd
traffic for the lights. This is not
good. The same heavy vehicles
mentioned earlier, which travel
down St Andrews Hill Rd,
have a problem crossing the
“cross-hatch” to queue to turn
left or right. These vehicles
are too big for this part of the
intersection.
I expect you have had a great
number of emails mentioning
the same problems.
Last week Bay Harbour News
asked its readers where they
would like to see a cruise ship
berth rebuilt:
Ron Williams, of Sumner:
Lyttelton would be a good
place. Of course! Or, we could
extend the Christchurch Yacht
Club jetty, Moncks Bay, a bit
and with a bit of dredging??
That would boost business at
Redcliffs, Sumner and Brighton,
with small boats taking some to
a South Brighton estuary drop
off point. Also buses could take
others to the city.
Ferrymead, Little River

Actors from
Pirates, Star

The Stolen
BRIDGET RUTHERFORD
Ferrymead Heritage Park and
Little River will feature in a new
film, starring a number of high
profile actors.
The Stolen, which is set during
the Gold Rush of 1860, will be
based at the heritage park,
and filming will take
place at other Canterbury
locations including
Little River
Campground.
The film was
written and will
be produced
and starred
in by Emily

It will feature
Hollywood actors Alice Eve
(Star Trek Into the Darkness),

(The Hobbit trilogy) and New
Zealand singer and actor Stan

Ferrymead Heritage Park operations
manager Kim Dunkley
said they were approached in
January, and found out about
eight weeks ago it would be happening.
“It is great exposure, when
people come down to the park
once they start filming, it will be
quite exciting.”
He said about three weeks
ago some portacoms, which

would act as offices for the film
crew, have been installed at the
park.
Heathcote Studios Theatrical
Society’s building, the old
stables and Curragh House
would all be used for filming,
which was expected to begin at
the end of the month, he said.
The film is based on a young
woman and her wealthy husband
who come to New Zealand from
England.
The woman’s husband is
then murdered and her baby
kidnapped, and it follows the
road to getting her child back.
It will be directed by Niall
Johnson.
The Stolen executive producer
Merryn Corcoran said further
scenes would be shot at Little
River Campground, in the bush,
which would take place in June
or July.
The crew was also hoping to
shoot near Birdlings Flat, she
said.
Mrs Corcoran said they were
also hoping to accommodate
most of the cast and crew in
Sumner during their stay.

Candice Milner
Surroundings of Lyttelton inspire
Candice Milner wrote her first serious song in
dedication to her grandmother who died from
cancer. Now about four years later she is recording
her first album. Bridget Rutherford spoke to her
about performing as part of New Zealand Music
Month, joining the volunteer fire brigade, and taking
inspiration from Lyttelton
So you are performing as part
of New Zealand Music Month,
can you fill me in on how that
came about?
Well I guess as a musician
in the Christchurch music
scene you stumble across
opportunities, but this was a
special one. I’m playing at
various libraries over the month.
The libraries do series of gigs
with local musicians. I also did
the New Zealand Music Month
launch at Christchurch Art
Gallery on May 1.
I played there which was
really nice, it was an awesome
place. I’m playing in Shirley
Library, and often in Lyttelton
so I will be playing here. I might
be going Little River way in the
next wee while; I’d love to do
that.
So how did you get into
singing?
Actually I’ve been writing
songs since I was about 13 or
14. My grandmother had just
passed away when I was 13 and
I’d written a song while she was
battling cancer. I did that to raise
money for Canteen, and Angels
Gate Recording Studio fully
funded it. So that sort of began
my recording adventure, and I
just sort of went on a website
theAudience, put one of my
songs up and it managed to get
No 1 spot so I got a NZ on Air
$1000 grant. I’m now doing
a whole album with Lyttelton
Records.
Before your grandmother
passed away, had you written
songs?
I had written songs before,
but that was the only one that
I really took seriously – I was
more determined then. She was
very supportive of me being a
creative person so that made me
really want to do that for her.
You don’t always get the most
supportive people when you are

pursuing a creative career.
And how old are you now?
I’m 17 now.
Do you play any instruments
as well?
I play the guitar and the piano,
I do know lots about music and
things. I’ve really been singing
my whole life and always loved
music. I remember being at
school thinking I’ll never take
music, there was drama, art and
music and never thought I’d take
music. But I started doing singing
and piano and guitar, then the
next year I took up music and
I’ve done it ever since.
What school did you go to?
I went to Middleton Grange,
I actually left late last year after
I started recording my album. It
was becoming full time, I don’t
think I would have had time for
school. I would have gone into
year 13 this year.
So what sort of places do you
perform at in Lyttelton?
It really varies, it depends
on the events that are happening.
Sometimes there will be
a collaboration show we do at
Wunderbar. And that’s a nice
venue to play at. If it’s shows I
do by myself I go to Civil and
Naval or Boo Radley’s in town.
I love how it’s different every
time, it’s fun.
Are you originally from
Lyttelton?
Yes, I live in Lyttelton, I’ve
lived here my whole life. It’s a
really nice community with so
many talented people.
There’s such a creative vibe
in Lyttelton, it must be a great
place for you to develop your
music career.
“I live and paint in a beautiful
rural Bay on Banks Peninsula,
surrounded by the ruggedness of
the landscape and the constant
and ever changing rhythm of the
sea.
Change is constant, something you
can either embrace or ignore. Either
way, change challenges us all.
This exhibition is entitled ‘Tipping
Point’, inspired by that point of
change that drives us all, to try
new things and to let others go, to
change the way we think and act.
My paintings express this
excitement, the doubt and
apprehension that change forces
on us all, urging me to try new
things and to let others go.
In ‘Mad as a March Hare’, we have
a lady suspended, her thoughts in
the cloud, searching to find where
her next step in life in will take her,
while below normality exists.
For the Hare, March means
madness, no fear, a month of
change and a new era begins and
the excitement of the unknown.
Like the Hare, when I am in ‘My
Zone’ as an artist in my studio in
Port Levy, my imagination takes me
to places unknown, experiences
and thoughts unheard of, and it
is through my paintings that I can
truly express these feelings.
Where they will lead me is unknown,
but just like the Hare, that is what
inspires me.”
Jacqui is an artist of figurative
subjects with life and energy. Jacqui
lives and paints on an isolated farm
in Port Levy, Banks Peninsula with
her husband and daughter Phoebe.
While Jacqui’s subject matter is
invariably the human form, it is
secondary to her exploring form,
structure, movement, colour and
texture. In her recent body of work,
there is a translucent feel which
gives the paintings a whole new
interest.
She has been painting and
exhibiting for a long time. Jacqui
is also a past winner of the annual
CoCa award.

successful teenage musician
Yeah, it’s a really amazing
place. I’m so fortunate to be
living just down the road from
Lyttelton Records, where I’m
recording at the moment.
So how far through your
album are you?
I started in September last
year and I pretty much worked
super hard for a couple of
months. We’ve pretty much
finished the whole thing and
are just going through the final
stages like artwork and planning
a tour around New Zealand.
Have you written all the
songs?
Yeah, I’ve written all the
songs myself. I think it’ll be
a really good showcase of my
growing song writing over the
past year. A lot of it is quite
different, and there are different
tracks. Some are quite rocky,
some are ballads and some are
country. It’s a wide spread album.
I’m quite into the folk and
country music of New Zealand,
with a wee twist of my own
personal touch.
Is your music inspired
by your surroundings in
Lyttelton?
Totally, I don’t quite know
how to describe that. I write a
lot of my songs looking out my
window at the town, or I drive
TALENTED: Candice is
performing as part of New
Zealand Music Month in
various libraries across
the city.
somewhere in Lyttelton and sit
down with my guitar where I
can be alone and write songs.
Most of the songs are written
here.
And there are some pretty
successful musicians that have
come out of Lyttelton, such as
Marlon Williams, do you take
inspiration from that?
Absolutely. I think those guys
are incredible, to make it even
half as far as they have would be
amazing. I see them around and
I like to chat to them. Even hearing
their stories of what they’ve
done, it’s inspiring.
Any other local musicians
you look up to?
There’s a band called
Devilish Mary and the Holy
Rollers – they’re a swing
band and the fiddle player
Anita is an amazing musician
who has blessed me with her
fiddle playing. She’s played
in a couple of tracks of my
album and played a few gigs
with me. Playing with those
people is really important, you
understand how to learn from
them.
Have you tried playing the
fiddle?
I’ve never picked one up. But
I have a feeling I’d be bad at it
(laughs).
Where do you hope to take
your singing career?
Well I think it’s very easy to
say you want to get known, win
awards and get nominations, to
feel like you’ve made a difference
and get your name out.
But I think it’s a lot more about
people. Live gigs are a big thing
for me. Just connecting with the
community by music.
So how long does it take to record
a song? How do you do it?
It depends, I came in with all
my songs, I said here they are I
recorded them all raw, and we
discussed what we visioned then
we’d lay down the guitar track
and I’d sing over-top. Then we’d
get all the musicians in, you just
don’t know what the songs will
sound like. Sometimes you have
to keep doing it. It takes a lot of
time, especially being my first
album. It’s scary but at the last
minute it will pull together.
How many songs does this
album have?
I have 10 songs, and the album
is called Evergreen.
Have you had people perhaps
putting you down, or
criticising your work?
Yes, I’ve had people try to tell
me to put down my guitar and
get into pop but that’s not what
I’m about. Some people say
‘you’re not going to go far with
just your voice and guitar’. But
I’m not going to change myself
to fit what others think is a successful
criteria.
What do you like to do in
your spare time?
Well, I love anything that’s
creative. I like art, I like painting.
And I’m part of the Lyttelton
Volunteer Fire Brigade,
that’s a nice brigade to be part
of, it’s very supportive.
Wow, how did that all come
about?
I just wanted to do it, so I
went along and said I want to be
a firefighter. Being almost 50kg
lighter than everyone else can be
tough, and I’m the only woman
in brigade. I’m also 1.55m, but I
do it anyway.
How long have you been
part of the brigade?
Only about six months. I went
to the big ship fire at the port
last month. It’s really interesting
with people in those situations.
I’m only a recruit, so I just help
out. I’m still in training.

Tips
Protect yourself for up to 3 months from
cold & flu
It’s coming into the time of year to be thinking about prevention of
colds & flu. Buccaline is an oral antibacterial prophylaxis for the
prevention of secondary bacterial infections associated with cold
and flu. Buccaline provides active immunisation against bacterial
colds. Illnesses of the upper respiratory are often caused by bacterial
infections. Viral and influenza-like illnesses are frequently made worse
by an additional bacterial infections and take longer to recover from.
Immunology investigations show that Buccaline significantly improves
resistance to colds and flu. Protection becomes effective after taking
the last set of tablets. To maintain effectiveness as well as taking
Buccaline at the beginning of the cold season take it again in the
middle of the cold season. Tablets should be swallowed whole with
some liquid one-hour before breakfast or lunch.

Strictly Sumner raises about $100,000
Sumner charities,
organisations and clubs will
benefit by about $100,000
from this year’s Strictly
Sumner event.
Ten couples took to the
stage at Sumner School
hall on Saturday in front of
about 500 people to perform
their dances that they
had been working on for 16
weeks.
The couples were judged
by former The Bachelor NZ
and Dancing With the Stars
contestant Crystal Chenery,
dance professional Scott Cole
and ONE News reporter Lisa
Davies.
Amy Barry and Nick
Brown, who were dancing
for the Christchurch Coastal
Pathway, scored a perfect 10
from all three judges for their
final dance, a salsa/charleston
mash up.
Cole voted it “the
performance of the night”.
Ms Barry said winning was
the icing on the cake of an
amazing journey.
“This was well out of our
comfort zone but it became
a story of self discovery and
strong friendships.”
Tully Hately and Jim
Stenberg, dancing for Sumner
Youth/FUSE, finished
second and Amanda Price
and Dane Bell, dancing for
Sumner School PTA were
third.
Although the final tallies
for the total amount raised
from the event had not
been done, organisers were
confident they had reached
their $100,000 target.

Big turnout for river clean-up
The estuary at Ferrymead lit
up with high visibility vests on
Saturday as hundreds of people
turned up to collect rubbish as
part of a city-wide clean up.
It was part of this year’s
Mother of all Clean Ups,
which saw people pick up
rubbish from the banks of the
Heathcote and Avon rivers and
the estuary.
Avon Heathcote Estuary
Ihutai Trust co-ordinator Tanya
Jenkins said although it was
great to see so many volunteers
turn up to help, it was sad to
see the amount of rubbish that
had to be collected.
“A large amount of rubbish
we found was obviously
thrown out of car windows like
cans, fast food packaging and
bottles,” she said.
Other rubbish looked to have
come down the rivers, she
said. Across the city, 935 bags
of rubbish were collected, as
well as 515 larger items such
as tyres, building materials and
televisions.

FAREWELL: Lyttelton’s Porthole Bar will serve its last drinks on May 21.
Container bar to
serve last drinks
BRIDGET RUTHERFORD
Porthole Bar was set up after
the February 2011 earthquake to
give Lyttelton patrons a place to
go and socialise.
But next week, the container
bar which sits on the corner of
London and Canterbury Sts, will
serve its last drinks.
Its last day in operation will be
on May 21.
Owner Mike Dunlay said the
new land owners wanted to start
developing a new restaurant and
bar on the site by October.
He was going to move the
container bar to another location,
but it was too difficult to find a
new site, he said.
“It’s been a really good business
and has had huge local
support. It’s a bit sad, I’m a bit
gutted as well.”
He put the container bar up for
auction on Trade Me, with bids
reaching about $17,000. The
auction will close on Sunday.
Mr Dunlay said patrons would
be disappointed.
“I might have to get out of
town otherwise there might be a
lynch mob,” he joked.
Patrons have just over a week
to go along and farewell the
container bar.

WINNERS: Carlton-Redcliffs are this season’s Porritt Cup winners.
Carlton-Redcliffs
go back-to-back
FRASER WALKER-PEARCE
Carlton-Redcliffs have won
back-to-back Porritt Cup titles
after being two goals down in
the final.
The side faced University in
the final on Saturday, and found
themselves 2-0 down, and then
2-1 down before half time.
Carlton-Redcliffs fought back
though, and went on to take the
game 4-2.
They beat Hornby Vipers 6-0
in the first round, and Southern
Stingers 4-1 in the semi-final, to
face University last weekend.
Club captain George Enersen
said the team hadn’t played University
yet this season and didn’t
know “what they were in for”
when they faced off in the final.
“They can always upset good
sides, and although they tend not
to have a large number of top
players, we found ourselves 2-0
down, and then 2-1 down at half
time,” he said.
The second half was a different
story, however. Carlton-
Redcliffs scored three goals to
overcome the deficit and take
away the win, and the cup.
Enersen said University are an
unpredictable side, and got their
“tails up” when they went ahead.
“University is one of those
sides that get their tails up, and
are hard to beat. So it was a good
turn around. We kept sticking to
what we were doing, and both
of their goals were lapses of
concentration on our part.
“They had a few chances
when we were napping, but they
were top class goals. I have to
give credit to the opposition.
Next week we’re back into the
season, in the round robin championships,
and funnily enough
we’re playing University,” he
said.
The Limitation Act
impacts soon;
are you worried?
You should be, especially if you have not settled your insurance
claim, land claim or have had dodgy repairs by EQC.

The power
of community
Orion is privileged to
have been associated
with Community Energy
Action (CEA) for more
than twenty years.
CEA is a charitable
trust that provides
insulation and energy
advice services to
the most vulnerable
in our community
with the overriding
objective of creating
warmer, healthier
and more energy
efficient homes.
Results of the Healthy
Homes Project, a recent
study undertaken by the
Canterbury District Health
Board and CEA, shows a
direct correlation between
insulated homes and a
reduction in hospital bed
days by up to 30%.
Working in a collaborative
partnership with CEA has
enabled a great deal to
be achieved where it is
most needed.

Many benefits from insulating homes
HEALTHY: A workman installing insulation under the floor of a
Canterbury home.
A successful partnership
between community, health
and commercial organisations
has helped save Canterbury
DHB nearly $1m, by providing
insulation and/or heating to high
health needs patients.
As well as reducing hospital
costs, it has also assisted in ensuring
people can remain in their
own homes.
In 2011, a Healthy Homes programme
was created between the
Canterbury DHB and the three
Canterbury primary health care
organisations, Community Energy
Action, Environment Canterbury
and the Energy Efficiency
Conservation Authority. Orion
and MainPower also contributed
funding into this programme.
The programme was developed
to keep people in their own
homes and communities rather
than using hospital services. This
recognised Canterbury’s compromised
housing stock following
the 2010 and 2011 earthquakes.
The Canterbury DHB and partnering
organisations understood
the potential benefits for frequent
users of the health system of living
in warm and dry homes, including
improved physical and
mental health.
The programme initially focused
on people who had been in
the Christchurch Hospital at least
twice within a year prior to the
programme starting (defined as
being the highest-needs patients).
In July 2013, the programme was
extended to include general practice
patients, for example families
with children under 17 years
of age identified as being at risk
and parents with newborn babies.
The programme ran from 2011
to late 2014 and the whole programme
provided over 1500 insulation
installations and 450
heating appliances. Partnerships
amongst the organisations meant
many Healthy Homes’ clients
were referred to other organisations
and services, as additional
needs were identified.
A qualitative report was completed
by Pegasus Health in June
2015 on the whole programme.
Canterbury DHB invested
$1.7m over 2.5 years between
2011 and 2014, covering 22 per
cent of the total programme costs.
Around half of the $1.7m invested
went towards intervention
costs for the 900 highest-needs
patients, as defined above. The
remaining partnering organisations
covered the balance of the
total costs. Of those 900 highest-need
patients, a significant
number of them were aged over
65. There was an approximately
60 per cent/40 per cent split between
home owners and tenants.
After reviewing the health
data, comparing the year prior
to the interventions with the year
following, the findings showed a
29.2 per cent reduction in hospital
bed days of those 900 patients.
This equates to a reduction of
five bed days per annum, a cost
saving to the Canterbury DHB of
nearly $1m.
“This means the programme
was extremely successful for the
community and all involved including
the Canterbury DHB,”
says Caroline Shone, chief executive
of CEA.
“Whilst the cost for insulation
and heating is a one-off, the
benefits last for years. I’m sure
for the Canterbury DHB the return
on investment can be spent
on other health needs. This programme
was a first for CEA and
the other organisations involved,
I am really happy that we have
helped so many people working
in partnership with Government,
private and public sector organisations.”
Greg Hamilton from the Canterbury
DHB said he was “delighted
with the results.”
David Meates, CEO of Canterbury
DHB said: “This is just
brilliant to see the hard evidence
being brought to life.”
The above analysis only takes
into account one of a number of
benefits (hospitalisation) which
result from improving a home’s
insulation. There are other considerable
benefits to this programme
including:
Hospital benefits after the first
12 months – a single intervention
has a 40-year life span taking into
account the life of the insulation;
benefits to partners, children and
others living in the same dwelling;
benefits to future occupants;
reduction in other primary and
community services required for
intensive post-discharge rehabilitation;
reduction in absenteeism
from work/school for all home
occupants due to improved overall
health; people living in their
own homes with better wellbeing
and feeling safer; and empowerment
through improved physical
health, mental health and/
or an improved general state of
mind/well-being; establishment
of other successful working relationships
with a range of organisations,
with a focus to assist
vulnerable families.
To date, EECA has provided
approximately $450m worth of
subsidies for insulation nationwide
through their programmes,
including Warm Up New Zealand.
The Healthy Home Programme
analysis shows the need to continue
with programmes such as
these, particularly when EECA
and CEA through their own surveys,
have identified that there
are still over 30,000 low income
family homes in Canterbury
alone, with inadequate or no insulation.
There have been other relevant
New Zealand studies and discussions
over the years around the
need to improve housing quality
and the associated health benefits.

HEALTH & BEAUTY
Transitioning skincare
through the seasons
Skincare expert and facialist Clemency Alice has a passion for beauty and organic
skincare. Recently travelling to Paris and Australia to further her knowledge, she
shares her secrets.
the tRAnSition from summer to
autumn can have a major impact on your
skin’s overall condition and appearance. if
the new season catches you unaware and
unprepared, your skin can become very
dry, extremely sensitive, lacklustre and
more susceptible to breakouts. This is due
to the change in oil flow – which was on
an all-time high during summer – and the
vitality of the ‘skin glow’ waning as cooler
temperatures plummet, constricting
blood vessels. here’s what you need to
know to ensure your skin stays prepped
and primped for the change of season.
PReSeRVe youR liPid BARRieR
if you remove this protective skin barrier
through more aggressive methods of overcleansing
and over-exfoliating, then the
skin cells aren’t prepared and your skin
becomes more vulnerable to the extreme
temperatures and external elements of
wind, sun and rain. A way to protect
and maintain hydration in your skin is
through spritzing your face after cleansing
with a floral facial mist then locking the
moisture in with your favourite facial oil
or moisturiser.
SwitCh moiStuRiSeRS
opt for a creamier, rich texture in
your moisturiser that has antioxidant,
super skin-boosting ingredients. Select
moisturisers that contain hyaluronic acid
(skin plumping and hydrating), vitamin
C (antioxidant and uV-protecting
properties), shea butter (moisturising
and protecting), and rose (softening,
anti-inflammatory, hydrating). And for
those with oilier skins, opt for a balancing
facial oil with lavender (restorative
and calming) and jojoba (balancing to
the acid mantle, protecting and antiinflammatory).
PRoteCt youR Skin
Just because summer is a distant dream,
keep applying a chemical-free SPF daily,
and opt for a seperate sun-care product
with a minimum of SPF30 rather than
relying on sun protection from your
foundation.
inSide And out
Beauty and skin health can come from
within:
• Ensure you drink plenty of water.
• Drink organic green tea (helps
prevent tewl – trans-epidermal water
loss).
• Eat seasonal fruit and vegetables.
• Drink green smoothies.
• Boost your intake of essential
fatty acids.
• Go for a brisk walk amongst
nature to
revive your autumnal ‘glow’.
• Maintain your skin sparkle with
restorative beauty sleep.

Public Notice
DEALER FINANCE LIMITED
Dealer Finance Limited and the Commerce Commission have entered into a settlement agreement relating to
overcharged interest on loans. This resulted from Dealer Finance not crediting part repayments made by borrowers
against the unpaid balance of the loan as soon as practicable, and as a consequence, overcharging interest to the
borrower.
If you purchased a vehicle through one of the car dealers listed below between April 2005 and April 2015, which was
financed through Dealer Finance, you may be entitled to a refund of any overcharged interest, together with a 5%
uplift payment.
Dealer Finance has recently sent notification to all affected clients by mail. If you have not received this notification
please contact Dealer Finance by email on enquiries@dfl.co.nz to find out whether you are entitled to a refund.
Please include your full name, current and previous addresses, and if known, the car dealer you purchased your car
through and the vehicle registration number.
PLEASE NOTE - NO contact is required from you:
• if you still have a current open loan(s) with Dealer Finance; or
• if you have previously repaid a loan(s) with Dealer Finance (taken out between above dates) but have a current
loan(s) with Dealer Finance,
as we will be crediting your open loan or we have made or are in the process of making appropriate internal
adjustments.
A copy of the settlement agreement can be found on www.comcom.govt.nz
