Residents want better<br />
police coverage in port<br />
• By Annabelle Dick<br />
Heathcote Valley<br />
FRUSTRATED Lyttelton<br />
residents want more police<br />
presence to deter burglars and<br />
thieves.<br />
Residents Brett Partel and Paul<br />
Dietsche addressed the Lyttelton-Mt<br />
Herbert Community<br />
Board last week after hearing<br />
concerns from other people<br />
about the increase in crime in<br />
the port.<br />
Mr Partel had his trailer stolen<br />
from his Cressy Tce property in<br />
July and said he knows of another<br />
five trailers that have been<br />
taken from the area.<br />
Mr Dietsche said residents<br />
have told him about vandalism<br />
and fuel siphoning from cars,<br />
and work vehicles that have had<br />
tools stolen from them.<br />
“It’s worrisome – we love living<br />
here and we love the community<br />
so we want to see if something<br />
can be done,” Mr Dietsche said.<br />
They want police on call in<br />
Lyttelton outside of the current<br />
8am-5pm Monday to Friday coverage,<br />
and CCTV cameras placed<br />
in the port.<br />
Police from Christchurch cover<br />
the area outside of the hours<br />
above.<br />
Five officers and a supervisor<br />
are based at Lyttelton.<br />
The pair want police to pour<br />
more resources into the community<br />
and see CCTV cameras<br />
installed to deter burglars.<br />
“I see not having a full-time<br />
police station as being an issue,<br />
I can’t get hold of them, when I<br />
have issues I have to phone up<br />
central to get put through to<br />
Lyttelton police. They don’t answer<br />
the phone, they don’t return<br />
messages,” Mr Partel said.<br />
Senior Sergeant Stephen<br />
McDaniel told the community<br />
board police had to stick to<br />
budgets when allocating resources.<br />
He said police from<br />
Christchurch can easily attend<br />
when Lyttelton-based police<br />
couldn’t.<br />
Senior Sergeant McDaniel<br />
suggested introducing CPTED<br />
(Criminal prevention through<br />
environmental design) to the<br />
area which involves retrofitting<br />
the town to make it less susceptible<br />
to crime.<br />
London St businesses including<br />
Civil & Naval, The Shroom<br />
Room and Lyttelton Coffee<br />
Company are just a few of several<br />
businesses who have been burgled<br />
in the past few months.<br />
Shroom Room staff member<br />
Lisa Isbiter said the cafe was hit<br />
twice two months ago and a till<br />
was stolen which contained a<br />
year’s tip collection.<br />
Civil & Naval had two kegs<br />
of beer stolen from their site on<br />
July 27.<br />
Owner Louis Dyer said there’s<br />
a security system installed but<br />
the kegs were situated out back<br />
away from the camera’s view.<br />
Senior Sergeant McDaniel said<br />
residents could help themselves<br />
by not becoming easy targets for<br />
burglars and thieves, like hiding<br />
trailers from sight, and locking<br />
Lyttelton<br />
BURGLARY VICTIM: Civil & Naval owner Louis<br />
Dyer says opportunists are taking advantage<br />
of local businesses. Residents want to see the<br />
police station manned longer and officers out<br />
in force more often to reduce burglaries in the<br />
area.<br />

“There’s a lot of opportunists<br />
out there – a lot of people<br />
who commit crimes aren’t out<br />
there to do it, they just see the<br />
opportunity and take it,” Senior<br />
Sergeant McDaniel said.<br />
The community board is looking<br />
to install a mobile camera to<br />
move around crime hot spots.<br />

THe police have a tough job and<br />
the community should, and do,<br />
get behind the boys, and girls, in<br />
blue who generally do a sterling<br />
job.<br />
But there are grumbles in<br />
Lyttelton because people there<br />
don’t think they are getting the<br />
service they need (see page 1).<br />
There has been a spate of thefts<br />
and burglaries in the past year,<br />
which prompted residents Brett<br />
Partel and Paul Dietsche to go<br />
to the Lyttelton-Mt Herbert<br />
Community Board to air their<br />
concerns.<br />
They want police based in the<br />
bays area seven days a week.<br />
And they don’t seem to return<br />
calls either – to the <strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong><br />
News anyway. We tried to get<br />
Lyttelton police to respond to a<br />
number of questions for this issue<br />
– but they haven’t called back.<br />
The residents probably have a<br />
good case. – Barry Clarke<br />

High levels of air pollution<br />
• By Annabelle Dick<br />
AN AIR quality report shows<br />
there has been a spike in air<br />
pollution in Lyttelton during<br />
winter.<br />
The Environment Canterbury<br />
report, which measured gases<br />
and particles, showed an<br />
increase in PM10 and PM2.5<br />
particles.<br />
ECan measured air quality<br />
daily from January <strong>2016</strong> and<br />
results showed that PM10 levels<br />
breached the National Environmental<br />
Standard four times in<br />
June.<br />
PM10 are coarse particles that<br />
often come from dust and sea<br />
salt and in high concentrations,<br />
can cause respiratory health<br />
problems including coughing,<br />
wheezing, asthma attacks and<br />
bronchitis.<br />
The report also showed PM2.5<br />
levels were over the World<br />
Health Organisation’s guideline<br />
four times in June as well.<br />
PM2.5 are fine particles that<br />
come from combustion sources<br />
like woodburners and vehicles<br />
and are considered more severe.<br />
These particles can reach the<br />
deepest region of the lungs and<br />
short term exposure in high<br />
amounts can worsen lung and<br />
heart conditions and increase<br />
deaths and hospital admissions.<br />
ECan senior air quality analyst<br />
Teresa Aberkane said the<br />
spike in PM levels might have to<br />
do with weather conditions.<br />
“We do see coarse particles all<br />
time – just not the exceedances.<br />
They happen when there’s very<br />
little wind and Lyttelton is calm<br />
over winter so it might just be<br />
something that happens during<br />
that season,” Ms Aberkane said.<br />
Lyttelton-Mt Herbert Community<br />
Board chairwoman<br />
Paula Smith asked ECan specialists<br />
if they were concerned<br />
about the frequency of high<br />
levels.<br />
“It’s unusual – I haven’t come<br />
across a situation like this before,”<br />
Ms Aberkane said.<br />
Concentrations of gases and<br />
particles are measured every<br />
minute along with wind and<br />
temperature at a site on Norwich<br />
Quay.<br />
ECan analysts believe the pollution<br />
could be related to road<br />
usage.<br />
“We’re not sure what the<br />
source is . . . it could possibly be<br />
movements on the road picking<br />
up dust,” Ms Aberkane said.<br />
The New Zealand Transport<br />
Agency’s updated Lyttelton<br />
Tunnel Bylaw comes into affect<br />
on September 1 and ECan staff<br />
believe this should have an effect<br />
Teresa<br />
Aberkane<br />
AIR QUALITY<br />
WOES: PM<br />
levels have<br />
spiked in<br />
Lyttelton over<br />
winter.<br />
on the poor air quality readings.<br />
The changes mean that vehicles<br />
transporting loose material<br />
like sand, soil or fertiliser must<br />
be covered both before and after<br />
load delivery to reduce dust and<br />
dirt in the tunnel.<br />
The air quality analysts expect<br />
the bylaw will mean a drop in<br />
particular matter in Lyttelton<br />
and will publish the results in<br />
their next quarterly report.<br />
Nitrogen dioxide, sulphur<br />
dioxide and carbon monoxide<br />
concentrations were also measured<br />
and were well below the<br />
National Environmental Standards<br />
for air quality and Ambient<br />
Air Quality Guidelines.<br />
In Brief<br />
WOMAN INJURED IN CRASH<br />
A woman was left with minor<br />
injuries after a crash in Charteris<br />
<strong>Bay</strong> on Monday. The car hit a<br />
bank and was the only vehicle<br />
involved.<br />
NEW SITE FOR MUSEUM<br />
Lyttelton Historical Museum<br />
Society will be gifted a city<br />
council site to build a new<br />
museum. The society made a<br />
deputation to the city council<br />
alongside the Lyttelton-Mt<br />
Herbert Community Board<br />
which resulted in a principle<br />
decision to gift the land to the<br />
museum society after its building<br />
was lost in the February 22, 2011,<br />
earthquake. The society will build<br />
on the old service centre site at<br />
33 London St after a final report<br />
with the decision is created.<br />
FREEDOM CAMPER BYLAW<br />
The city council is asking for<br />
public feedback on proposed<br />
changes to the Freedom Camping<br />
Bylaw. The amended bylaw<br />
proposes to ban all non-selfcontained<br />
freedom camping<br />
throughout the district but the<br />
law would allow certified selfcontained<br />
camping without a<br />
time restriction in rural zones.<br />
Public feedback on the proposal is<br />
being sought until September 15,<br />
and a full review of the bylaw is<br />
scheduled for next year.<br />

Three-way battle for Heathcote seat<br />
• By Annabelle Dick<br />
COMPETITION will be fierce<br />
for the lone city council seat<br />
in the Heathcote<br />
Ward.<br />
Sara Templeton<br />
(Strong Communities<br />
for a Stronger<br />
Christchurch, left),<br />
Paul Lonsdale<br />
(Independent, left)<br />
and Malcolm Davis<br />
(Independent) are<br />
all vying for the<br />
new Heathcote seat<br />
on the city council.<br />
Cr Lonsdale<br />
currently represents the Hagley-<br />
Ferrymead Community Board<br />
Elections 16<br />
on the city council, Mrs Templeton<br />
is the board’s chairwoman<br />
and Mr Davis is a newcomer to<br />
local government.<br />
The Heathcote Ward is a part<br />
of the newly-formed Linwood-<br />
Central-Heathcote Community<br />
Board that was introduced after<br />
the Local Government Commission’s<br />
representation review.<br />
The Hagley-Ferrymead Community<br />
Board has been disestablished.<br />

Meanwhile, Banks Peninsula<br />
representation has also been<br />
shaken up with the Lyttelton-Mt<br />
Herbert Community Board<br />
and the Akaroa-Wairewa Community<br />
Board joining forces to<br />
create one board.<br />
The competiton for the Banks<br />
Peninsula area is a lot slimmer<br />
with Andrew Turner claiming<br />
the council seat by default.<br />
The newly-formed Banks<br />
Peninsula Community Board<br />
will home four community<br />
subdivisions to represent the<br />
different areas within the<br />

John McLister will claim the two<br />
available spots.<br />
Tori Peden will fill the one<br />
position available on the<br />
Wairewa subdivision of the<br />
board.<br />
But there will be competition<br />
in the Akaroa subdivision with<br />
Janis Haley, Keith Molloy and<br />
Pam Richardson competing for<br />
the two vacancies.<br />

St John calls for help<br />
TRACK<br />
• By Annabelle Dick<br />
THE ST John Banks Peninsula<br />
area chairman is trying to<br />
recruit residents to help in<br />
frontline emergency services.<br />
Pete Dawson made a deputation<br />
to the Lyttelton-Mt Herbert<br />
Community Board to ask for<br />
their support in getting the<br />
community involved in paramedic<br />
services.<br />
Drivers and people willing<br />
to be trained in emergency<br />
responses are being sought.<br />
Lyttelton had their two<br />
ambulances taken from the area<br />
in 2014 and earlier this year to<br />
fulfil a need for more emergency<br />
services in the city centre.<br />
The area now has a fourwheel-drive<br />
first response unit<br />
to treat patients on the ground<br />
before they’re backed up by an<br />
ambulance.<br />
Mr Dawson isn’t upset about<br />
the ambulances being removed,<br />
as the city needs them more<br />
than the harbour area does.<br />
“The workload is such around<br />
the city that there’s no<br />
justification for it to be in<br />
Lyttelton where there isn’t a big<br />
workload. They can be dealt<br />
with by an ambulance in the<br />
city or by a first response unit,”<br />
he said.<br />
FIRST RESPONSE: St John is asking for residents’ help after Lyttelton’s two ambulances were<br />
replaced by a four-wheel-drive unit.<br />
PHOTO: GEOFF SLOAN <br />
The first response vehicle acts<br />
as an ambulance but cannot<br />
transport patients to the city.<br />
But Mr Dawson said there’s<br />
no staff to drive the unit and<br />
administer first aid to residents<br />
and now he’s campaigning for<br />
community participation.<br />
“We’ve got the vehicle but<br />
not the people. Lyttelton can be<br />
completely isolated and we feel<br />
the community needs some sort<br />
of response because if there’s<br />

• The latest Representation Review has<br />
divided the city into 16 wards, each with<br />
a single councillor. This was in response<br />
to the call by residents for better access<br />
to their representatives.<br />
• Our city needs councillors who<br />
live in and are connected to their<br />
wards, are experienced leaders,<br />
good listeners and believe in public<br />
service. I am one of those people<br />
and need your vote to do this work.<br />

an accident and no one can get<br />
there, there needs to be people<br />
within Lyttelton who can help,”<br />
Mr Dawson said.<br />
St John cannot pay for staff<br />
as paid staff moved when the<br />
ambulances went to the city.<br />
Mr Dawson said instead<br />
St John will give people full<br />
training, ongoing support and<br />
uniforms and there’s no cost to<br />
the volunteer.<br />
He said he’s doing this to keep<br />
the resource within the community<br />
to make sure an emergency<br />
response is as close as possible.<br />
“We want to make sure that St<br />
John can continue its long history<br />
of saving lives in Lyttelton<br />
by going to the community<br />
and saying ‘we’re here to help<br />
you but you’ve got to help us as<br />
well’,” he said.<br />
St John has been serving Lyttelton<br />
and Banks Peninsula for<br />
more than 100 years.<br />

In Brief<br />
IMPROVEMENT<br />
Gravel has been laid on the Mt<br />
Vernon farm mountain bike<br />
track in the Port Hills to make<br />
it usable for residents. A spell of<br />
warm and dry weather allowed<br />
city council rangers to fix the<br />
track near Summit Rd, which was<br />
badly worn down in places and in<br />
need of maintenance. The rangers<br />
are responsible for recreation<br />
management in 40 reserves on the<br />
Port Hills and 90 different tracks<br />
that have 1.2 million visits each<br />
year.<br />
RESTORATION TOUR<br />
The McCormacks <strong>Bay</strong> Reserve<br />
Estuary Trust will provide a free<br />
guided tour of the reserve to show<br />
off the latest restoration work.<br />
Trust coordinator Tanya Jenkins<br />
has organised the tour on <strong>August</strong><br />
29 at 10.15am to show residents<br />
the work recently undertaken<br />
by the Mt Pleasant volunteer<br />
team. The tour will commence<br />
from the temporary Mt Pleasant<br />
Community Centre. Morning tea<br />
will be provided. If you would<br />
like to come along, please email<br />
coordinator@mpcc.org.nz<br />
DYERS RD DELAYS<br />
Road works on Dyers Rd may<br />
cause delays for residents. The two<br />
lanes have been maintained but<br />
temporary speed limits will be in<br />
place so expect slow traffic at peak<br />
times.<br />

WYTZE HOEKSTRA has tuned<br />
the restored Steinway & Sons<br />
piano that sat in the Great Hall<br />
at the Christchurch Arts Centre.<br />
It’s been repaired following<br />
damage sustained when a block<br />
of masonry fell from the ceiling<br />
crushing the music rack.<br />
Mr Hoekstra said it was an<br />
emotional moment to see it<br />
again after he spent 15<br />
years tuning it prior to the<br />
quake.<br />
“It’s very special to see it fully<br />
restored and on stage,” he said.<br />
“Steinways are a beautiful<br />
instrument and there’s been<br />
many fond memories in the<br />
Great Hall associated with that<br />
piano.”<br />
The earthquakes damaged<br />
many grand pianos and concert<br />
venues, which meant Steinways<br />
had to be shared among the arts<br />
community.<br />
“Concert grand (pianos) travel<br />
around the city and are shared<br />

and we’d give them a fresh<br />
tune each concert,” Mr Hoekstra<br />
said.<br />
He owns and runs Hoekstra<br />
Pianos in Ferrymead, which is<br />
the only piano shop in the South<br />
Island, and he is one of only two<br />
qualified piano tuners in the city.<br />
The Netherlands native has<br />
been tuning pianos for more<br />
than 35 years and it only<br />
takes him about an hour to<br />
tune more than 200 individual<br />
strings.<br />
The piano made its return<br />
debut last Thursday at the<br />
St Andrew’s College jazz concert.<br />

launched<br />
• By Annabelle Dick<br />
STARK BROS will launch<br />
their newest fishing trawler FV<br />
Endeavour next week.<br />
The 17.2m vessel weighs 125<br />
tonne and was designed and built<br />
by Stark Bros in their Lyttelton<br />
ship building facility for Ocean<br />
Fisheries Ltd.<br />
Stark Bros chief executive<br />
Andrew Stark said the boat is a<br />
multi-million dollar investment<br />
into one of the country’s core<br />
industries.<br />
“The sector provides the vast<br />
majority of New Zealand’s fresh<br />
fish and promotes fresh, sustainable,<br />
restaurant-quality fish for<br />
New Zealand and the world,” he<br />
said.<br />
The vessel houses an on-board<br />
salt water ice maker, split hydraulic<br />
winches and a suite of<br />
electronics.<br />
Mr Stark said the name<br />
Endeavour has strong historical<br />

The creative design agency is<br />
one of three small enterprises<br />
contending for the title of<br />
Champion Professional Service.<br />
Digital director Alice Moore<br />
said the company is really happy<br />
about the accolade.<br />
“It’s pretty exciting and the<br />
team is really stoked too. It’s<br />
good to have some recognition<br />
after all the hard work,” she said.<br />
“It’s a good way to get<br />
exposure.”<br />
Mint Design was nominated<br />
by a Canterbury Development<br />
Corporation employee and it<br />
will go up against two other<br />
local businesses – Go Media Ltd<br />
and Create IP for the title.<br />
Mint Design started in<br />
2010 and has 11 staff working<br />
for it.<br />
The design agency builds<br />
websites, online marketing<br />

growth. We’ve had to hire some<br />
new staff as a result and it’s<br />
opened doors like working with<br />
other big brands we didn’t have<br />

SCIRT programme on the home straight<br />
SCIRT’s five year programme of repairs to pipes, roads, bridges and retaining walls is<br />
almost complete and will finish in December.<br />
Most of our repairs involve fixing the city’s underground pipe networks with only small<br />
amount of our work focused on roads.<br />
Our roading work largely involves fixing where we have dug down to repair and replace<br />
the earthquake damaged pipes beneath. The result may look a little patchy but we repair<br />
roads to a reliable and serviceable standard.<br />
The City Council and NZ Transport Agency will continue completing ongoing repairs to the<br />
city's earthquake-damaged roads after SCIRT.<br />
Progress in your neighbourhood<br />
• The Beachville Road Seawall in Redcliffs is now complete with the roading due to finish<br />
next month.<br />
• Watermain repairs are progressing well in Governors <strong>Bay</strong> and will be completed this<br />
month.<br />
• Lyttelton is still busy with ongoing retaining wall repairs which are due to be completed in<br />
September, underground pipe and roading repairs will continue through in the area to the<br />
end of the year.<br />

Wednesday <strong>August</strong> <strong>24</strong> <strong>2016</strong><br />
Our People<br />
Programmes manager brings<br />
Naval Point Club Lyttelton programmes manager<br />
David Noakes has only been at his new job for a<br />
month. Before that he worked for Environment<br />
Canterbury, Department of Conservation and as an<br />
outdoor education teacher. Fraser Walker-Pearce<br />
talks to him about leading safaris across Africa,<br />
having Manchester United player Lee Sharpe as a<br />
cousin, and shooting travel pictures for the Sunday<br />
Telegraph<br />
Why did you take on the job at<br />
the Naval Point Club Lyttelton?<br />
One of the things we haven’t<br />
been good at is connecting with<br />
our immediate community. We<br />
have 1000 members and some<br />
local people don’t even know<br />
where our clubhouse is. We need<br />
to raise the profile of the club<br />
also. There’s a lot going on down<br />
there, but we haven’t had anyone<br />
to make the most of that.<br />
How long have you been on<br />
the job?<br />
I’ve only been here for a<br />
month. We’ve finally recognised<br />
the need to embrace other water<br />
users than sailors. We’re pushing<br />
for boating, jet skis, canoeing,<br />
kayaking, everything.<br />
Can you explain your new<br />
role?<br />
I’m responsible for the<br />
promotion, management and<br />
support of all activities for<br />
sailors, waka ama, power boats,<br />
stand-up paddle boarders,<br />
windsurfers, swimmers and<br />
other water based activities. I<br />
develop and promote junior<br />
programmes and also manage<br />
the club’s instructors. I’ve<br />
been here for a month exactly<br />
now.<br />
And what were you doing<br />
before that?<br />
I was at Environment<br />
Canterbury. I was compliance<br />
and monitoring, I ran a group<br />
of monitors who used to go out<br />
and do all the monitoring for<br />
Canterbury. I resigned in May<br />
and came here. I was no longer<br />
enjoying the job and wanted to<br />
try something new. We were the<br />
police for ECan. Nobody phones<br />
me up in the middle of the night<br />
saying my neighbour has a fire<br />
going on next door, which is<br />
nice. Before that I had a number<br />
of jobs, including being a travel<br />
photographer for the Sunday<br />
Telegraph with my partner at the<br />
time.<br />
You’re an MBA and a FRGS,<br />
what does that mean?<br />
I’ve got a masters degree in<br />
business administration. I come<br />
with a business background.<br />
I’ve been lucky with that really,<br />
CALMNESS: David<br />
Noakes has taken up the<br />
job as Naval Point Club<br />
Lyttelton’s programme<br />
manager after a long<br />
history of jobs.<br />
because it’s so general I can<br />

wealth of experience to job<br />
Good, that’s what we like to<br />
hear.<br />
Strangely, what I’ve found<br />
in New Zealand is that my<br />
qualification isn’t particularly<br />
great, which was a surprise.<br />
In America and the United<br />
Kingdom you can’t get your foot<br />
in the door without an MBA.<br />
Maybe the New Zealanders are<br />
more relaxed about it, I don’t<br />
know. The FRGS means that I’m<br />
a Fellow of the Royal Geographic<br />
Society. And that’s because of my<br />
nine years in the military. I was<br />
in the British military and also<br />
the French Foreign Legion. I was<br />
a paratrooper there.<br />
What did you do after that?<br />
I went into outdoor education,<br />
so ended up working for<br />
Outward Bound in New<br />
Zealand, Britain and Africa, and<br />
working with lots of schools<br />
around the world. And that’s<br />
what made me go to Africa. I led<br />
expeditions, 10-week expeditions<br />
in special trucks. Free camping,<br />
tents, animals, drinking, all that<br />
good stuff.<br />
What did you do when you<br />
came to New Zealand?<br />
I went to work for DoC on<br />
Raoul Island, which is the<br />
northern-most island owned<br />
by New Zealand. I worked as a<br />
WAKA AMA: The Naval Point Club Lyttelton’s new programme manager David Noakes is looking<br />
to expand the club into different sports such as waka ama.<br />
team leader which was one of the<br />
highlights of my career so far. It’s<br />
the second largest marine in the<br />
world, and it’s an active volcano.<br />
When did you decide to settle<br />
down and get a normal job?<br />
I was living in Havelock North<br />
for a while, and then saw this<br />
job advertised on the internet.<br />
I thought it looked really<br />
interesting and wanted to be<br />
involved in the rebuild. After the<br />
work with ECan, I moved down<br />
with my former partner and our<br />
10-year-old daughter and, no<br />
regrets, absolutely none.<br />
Did your partner at the time<br />
and your daughter enjoy it<br />
down here?<br />
My ex-partner goes back and<br />
forth from Amsterdam and every<br />
time she comes back she tells me<br />
how good it is to be back here,<br />
they both love it. They both want<br />
to stay.<br />
Do you have family still in<br />
England?<br />
Yes, my father and sister are<br />
still there. They’ve got that great<br />
fighting British spirit.<br />
How many countries have<br />
you lived in?<br />
I grew up in Malaysia in<br />
the 1960s, just outside Kuala<br />
Lumpur. I spent my formative<br />
years there, then went to<br />
Germany and Belgium and then<br />
Cyprus. So I got back to England<br />
as a 13-year-old and joined the<br />
army at age 15. I was accepted at<br />
17, then off I went to Germany,<br />
lots of countries in Africa, then<br />
Central America, got married in<br />
Australia and now I’m here.<br />
So it’s fair to say the only<br />
continent you haven’t been to is<br />
Antarctica?<br />
Apart from South America<br />
yes. I’d actually love to spend a<br />
winter in Antarctica, that’s on my<br />
bucket list. What an adventure<br />
that would be.<br />
What schools did you go to?<br />
Yes. Most of them were<br />
‘military’ schools. They weren’t<br />
military schools where you<br />
learn to be a soldier, it was for<br />
the children of soldiers in the<br />
army. Then eventually I went to<br />
the University of Manchester<br />
and the University of Waikato,<br />
and completed my masters in<br />
Liverpool.<br />
So if you’re from all over<br />
effectively, do you have a<br />
football team that you support?<br />
Yes, Chelsea. But the<br />
Chelsea from the 1970s when<br />
you could actually pronounce<br />
all of the players’ names, unlike<br />
today.<br />
That would have been<br />
interesting when you were in<br />
Manchester and Liverpool?<br />
The whole household are<br />
Manchester United fans because<br />
of my cousin Lee Sharpe.<br />
Your cousin is Lee Sharpe?<br />
Yes. He’s a great lad. He’s still<br />
over in England but we’re trying<br />
to bring him out here.<br />
What are your hobbies?<br />
I’ve kind of fallen off<br />
photography nowadays. My<br />
biggest passion is my 10-year-old<br />
girl. But my biggest interest<br />
now is getting this yacht club<br />
rocking. We’ve got so much to<br />
offer, so it’s my job to get that<br />
happening.<br />
Thanks Canterbury<br />
for your continued support

Tunnel cycleway idea<br />
gains momentum<br />
• By Tom Doudney<br />
A SUGGESTION that the<br />
Lyttelton Tunnel’s ventilation<br />
shaft could be opened up to<br />
cycle and pedestrian traffic is<br />
generating some interest among<br />
local cyclists.<br />
The idea was floated by<br />
Hillsborough resident Simon<br />
Dyer who said many people like<br />
himself would like to cycle to<br />
Lyttelton and the surrounding<br />
bays but weren’t up to going over<br />
the hill.<br />
“That tunnel is almost under<br />
utilised in so much as having a<br />
nice thoroughfare through there<br />
for bikes. I think the technical<br />
challenge is exciting,” Mr Dyer<br />
said.<br />
New Zealand Transport<br />
Agency maintenance contract<br />
manager Barry Stratton said the<br />
idea of a cycleway through the<br />
shaft had been raised before and<br />
was ruled out.<br />
“The dual ventilation shaft<br />
system within the Lyttelton Tunnel<br />
– in the ceiling area above<br />
the road tunnel – relies upon<br />
two large metal bulkhead doors<br />
in the middle of the tunnel to<br />
build the pressure needed for the<br />
ventilation exhaust removal and<br />
fresh air system to work,” Mr<br />
Stratton said.<br />
“Without these bulkhead<br />
doors, which effectively cut the<br />
tunnel into two halves, there will<br />
be no ventilation system.”<br />
Cashmere resident Roger<br />
Woods said he had suggested<br />
the same idea four years ago but<br />
dropped it after he and Deputy<br />
Mayor Vicki Buck, who wasn’t<br />
on the city council at the time,<br />
BOLD VISION:<br />
Hillsborough<br />
resident Simon<br />
Dyer supports<br />
a cycleway<br />
through the<br />
Lyttelton<br />
Tunnel.<br />
visited the shaft and realised the<br />
challenges.<br />
While he believed the technical<br />
problems could be solved, it<br />
was likely to be expensive and<br />
unlikely to be a popular route<br />
due to noise and vibrations from<br />
the traffic below. Health and<br />
safety in the event of a fire or<br />
some other accident in the tunnel<br />
would also be a concern.<br />
Traffic engineer Glen Koorey<br />
said Spokes Canterbury had also<br />
looked into the idea about 14<br />
years ago but it stalled.<br />
Economic indicators<br />
positive for Canty<br />
THE OUTLOOK for<br />
Christchurch’s economy<br />
remains positive with<br />
high levels of activity being<br />
forecast even as rebuild activity<br />
plateaus.<br />
Economic indicators in<br />
Canterbury Development<br />
Corporation’s latest<br />
Christchurch and Canterbury<br />
Quarterly Economic Report<br />
found that the economy<br />
remained in a transition<br />
phase as stimulus from<br />
rebuild activity was continuing<br />
to ease.<br />
Canterbury has had a run<br />
of several economic indicators<br />
well above their historic<br />
average levels, but several are<br />
now starting to move towards<br />
national trends.<br />
CDC chief executive Tom<br />
Hooper said it was important<br />
to focus on the high levels of<br />
activity still occurring around<br />
the city and region, in spite of<br />
GDP growth levels being lower<br />
than recent years.<br />
“Construction activity will<br />
remain high for some time to<br />
come, although it will no longer<br />
drive growth in the economy,”<br />
he said.<br />
Christchurch’s GDP growth<br />
in the year to March was 0.5<br />
per cent, with activity valued at<br />
$18.8 billion.<br />
Non-residential construction<br />
remained steady at 43 per cent<br />
of all construction activity<br />
in the March quarter, and<br />
was expected to be buoyed by<br />
upcoming projects such as the<br />
Convention Centre.<br />
The report showed the local<br />
housing market had been<br />
relatively cool compared to the<br />
rest of the country.<br />
Rents had continued to<br />
fall, with private sector mean<br />
rents at $383 in June <strong>2016</strong> –<br />
seven per cent lower than June<br />
last year. House prices have<br />
increased modestly, with a<br />
median sale price of $440,000<br />
in Christchurch compared to<br />
$500,000 nationally.<br />
“Lower housing prices<br />
combined with modest salary<br />
increases, on average, is driving<br />
an improvement in housing<br />
affordability which is great news<br />
for Christchurch,” Mr Hooper<br />
said.<br />

The most unsettling psychological thriller<br />
you’ll read this year<br />
A chilling psychological thriller about friendship, deception, betrayal and<br />
violence. Perfect for fans of THE GIRL ON THE TRAIN and GONE GIRL.<br />
Before, Edie is the friend that Heather has always craved. But<br />
one night, it goes terrifyingly wrong. And what started as an<br />
innocent friendship ends in two lives being destroyed.<br />
Sixteen years later, Edie is still rebuilding her life. But<br />
Heather isn’t ready to let her forget so easily. It’s no<br />
coincidence that she shows up when Edie needs her<br />
most. Now Edie or Heather? Heather or Edie? Someone<br />
has to pay for what happened, but who will it be?<br />

Market Stays Strong<br />
Market Update News from Craig Prier<br />
It’s that time of year again when we see a genuine lift in properties coming to the market. Even<br />
though this winter has been particularly mild we find many home owners generally hold off<br />
bringing their property to the market until September as the days get longer and blossoms<br />
start to appear. Our office is getting huge numbers through the properties currently on the<br />
market, demonstrating there is still very high demand for property in the hill and seaside<br />
areas.<br />
Always worth considering before coming to the market are the three P’s of selling.<br />
Price, Presentation and Promotion. All three are tantamount to helping you achieve<br />
the result you are after, as is your choice of agent. Our team are well versed to offer<br />
you the right advice when it comes to working out the right way to present and promote<br />
your home as well as providing relevant market information in order for you to have the<br />
right price expectations. We have a current winter market update available for your interest.<br />
Just drop into our office on Humphreys Drive to pick one up, or we can happily post one straight<br />
to you. Call us today. We’re here to help.<br />

Top 5 interior trends that are making a come back<br />
this Summer.<br />
Brass Think a softer, antiqued version appearing on mirror<br />
frames, and fixtures rather than the shiny brass look back in<br />
the 90’s.<br />
Blue and White Simple, fresh and elegant, Apply it to modern<br />
patterns as part of an electric design scheme.<br />
Wall Paper Geometrics, modern florals or simple colour<br />
blocking will update the look of any room in the house.<br />
Orange A splash of orange here and there (careful not to go<br />
overboard) next to crisp whites and doses of bright blues.<br />
Accompanied by plenty of wood surfaces and natural textures<br />
to erase any hippie or disco vibes.<br />
Wood panelling Not just for mountain lodges and run down retro homes! Now days wood lined walls add<br />
interest and dimension to your favourite rooms. A demonstration of this is our latest listing 79 Clifton Terrace<br />
which has crisp white painted wood paneling which has effectively added timeless style and sophistication<br />

Giving back – a humbling experience<br />
Our day to day business activities involve helping people achieve their real estate aspirations, but we<br />
also take an active role in engaging with our local community. This year one of those events was the<br />
“Strictly Sumner Dance Event”. As a participant my chosen charity was the Sumner Community Residents<br />
Association, however we also wished to donate some of the money raised to the Christchurch City Mission.<br />
Last week Kathryn Cross (The Cornershop Bistro, Sumner) and I met with City Missioner, Michael Gorman<br />
to present him a cheque. What went from a ten minute meeting turned<br />
into a complete tour of the City Mission and it’s facilities.<br />
What an amazing and humbling experience. With such a passionate<br />
and dedicated leader at their helm Christchurch is fortunate to have<br />
such an incredible facility available to those living with far less than<br />
most. This is a facility that relies almost entirely on funding and help<br />
from the community and we quickly realized that the money we gave<br />
was literally a drop in the ocean compared to what they need every day,<br />
and every year. I have no doubt that as a business and as a community<br />
we can easily do more. Whether it’s a couple of tins of food, a couple<br />
of hours volunteering in the kitchen or a monetary donation, this truly is<br />
an organisation that hangs on to the saying that “every little bit helps”.<br />
With Christmas now only 4 months away one small way you can help is<br />
to donate a good quality pre-used or new toy for a child or adult in our<br />
Ray White Little Ray of Giving Campaign starting in December.<br />

<strong>Bay</strong>s’ big season finish<br />
• By Fraser Walker-Pearce<br />
FERRYMEAD BAYS will look<br />
to end their season on a high<br />
when they face Coastal Spirit in<br />
the English Cup final.<br />
At the start of the season,<br />
first team head coach Danny<br />
Halligan said he was aiming for<br />
a top three finish. But with only<br />
one league game left, the best<br />
the team can hope for is fourth<br />
spot.<br />
Halligan admitted it had been<br />
a bumpy season, but said the<br />
team prioritised this weekend’s<br />
final league match against Western<br />
before they would focus on<br />
competing for silverware.<br />
“Yes, we missed out on the top<br />
three spot and we’re now focussing<br />
on finishing the league<br />
season strongly. Then we can<br />
look forward to the English Cup<br />
final (Saturday, September 3),”<br />
he said.<br />
Halligan said losing key<br />
players to injury and even rival<br />
teams hadn’t helped the side’s<br />
momentum.<br />
“I think we’ve got stronger<br />
as we’ve gone on, we had a<br />
poor start and lost a number of<br />
players either to injury or other<br />
reasons and we never got that<br />
consistency that we needed,” he<br />
said.<br />
<strong>Bay</strong>s were holders of the English<br />
Cup in both 2012 and 2013,<br />
but Western and Cashmere<br />
Technical have taken the honours<br />
for the last two seasons.<br />
Halligan said his side have a<br />
“good chance” of taking away<br />
the cup, as Coastal have never<br />
taken the title.<br />
“We have a good team and,<br />
if we perform, we can beat any<br />
team, and we’ve proved that this<br />
season,” he said.<br />
Coastal has played <strong>Bay</strong>s three<br />
times this season, winning each<br />
time.<br />
They beat <strong>Bay</strong>s 3-0, 5-3, and<br />
1-0 over the season, leading into<br />
the final next Saturday.<br />
TIME TO SHINE: Ferrymead <strong>Bay</strong>s’ fullback Preston Bell in<br />
action against Nelson Suburbs earlier in the season. <br />
Ferrymead <strong>Bay</strong>s’ end-of-season run<br />
•July 30: win 3-0 against FC2011<br />
•<strong>August</strong> 13: draw 4-4 against Nelson Suburbs<br />
•<strong>August</strong> 20: draw 0-0 against Universities<br />

Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> Primary<br />
School teacher Rebecca<br />
Waters writes about<br />
historical figures visiting<br />
the classroom for a lesson<br />
in New Zealand’s past<br />
HISTORIC New Zealanders that<br />
are on our bank notes came to<br />
visit our pupils on Wednesday.<br />
We had a visit from the wonderful<br />
Claire at Rutherford’s Den<br />
and she bought with her three<br />
famous New Zealanders – Ernest<br />
Rutherford, Kate Sheppard and<br />
Apirana Ngata.<br />
The children had an interactive<br />
morning learning about historic<br />
moments and the people behind<br />
them.<br />
They learned about Ernest Rutherford,<br />
his Nobel Prize and all<br />
about the atom; they completed<br />
some weaving and mapped out to<br />
scale a Maori kite with Apirana<br />
Ngata; and stepped into Kate<br />
Sheppard’s wardrobe to try on<br />
her biking bloomers.<br />
They also tried on a graduate<br />
gown and experienced what<br />
holding a Nobel Prize was like.<br />
Along the way, they joined in<br />
with the history by signing the<br />
petition for women to vote with<br />
a calligraphy pen and checked<br />
gravity was still working.<br />
LITTLE EINSTEIN: Noah re-enacts Ernest Rutherford’s<br />
acceptance of the Nobel Prize in 1908.<br />
The pupils had a great morning,<br />
which I hope gave them<br />
some inspiration to put their own<br />
mark on the world.<br />
AIR TIME: Heathcote Valley Primary School pupils will travel<br />
to Hokitika after being named one of the winners of the<br />
Air New Zealand Airpoints for Schools competition. The<br />
class met a target of 1920 airpoints to be one of 10 schools<br />
nationwide to go on a class trip by plane. The pupils will<br />
travel to Hokitika to monitor and compare new spawning<br />
grounds for whitebait as part of a new initiative, Whaka<br />
Inaka: Causing Whitebait, which has been created through<br />
EOS Ecology, DOC and the University of Canterbury.<br />
Learning to grow food<br />
DIAMOND <strong>Harbour</strong> Primary<br />

growing and cooking their own<br />
produce within their school<br />
environment.<br />
The Garden to Table programme<br />
encourages Kiwi kids to<br />
learn about the process of planting<br />
and harvesting crops.<br />
The programme for seven to<br />
12-year-olds has been running<br />
for eight years and is aimed at<br />
changing the way children approach<br />
and think about food.<br />
Last week Fiesta, which has<br />
teamed up with Garden to<br />
Table, shipped packs of their<br />
new range of European seed potatoes<br />
to 40 schools across New<br />

Learn rules of the water<br />
• BY GARY MANCH,<br />
NAVIGATIONAL<br />
ews<br />
SAFETY OFFICER,<br />
LYTTELTON<br />
I was thinking the other day<br />
about boating in general, and<br />
the people who use various types<br />
of vessels ranging from paddle<br />
boards through to yachts and<br />
power boats.<br />
Then I thought I wonder how<br />
many of these people had done<br />
any form of training in relation to<br />
even the basic stuff like learning<br />
ashion<br />
the navigation rules, what the<br />
bylaw rules are in the area that<br />
they are using their boat, and I<br />
came to the conclusion that it was<br />
most likely a small amount.<br />
I bet at this point you are<br />
thinking how did he come to this<br />
conclusion, and I have to admit<br />
it’s not through any expensive<br />
Gardening<br />
survey, but through talking to<br />
people on the ramps and out in<br />
the water when they have done<br />
something wrong.<br />
An example may be going too<br />
fast within 200m of the shore or a<br />
structure (it’s a 5 knot speed limit<br />
within 200m of the shore unless<br />
the area is posted as an open<br />
speed limit) the answer I get is<br />
otoring<br />
”sorry I did not know” if I had a<br />
dollar for every time this was said<br />
to me, I would be a very wealthy<br />
man.<br />
Currently there is no<br />
compulsion for boaties to learn<br />

the rules, anyone can buy a boat,<br />
take it out on the water, if it is<br />
a power boat then the person<br />
operating must be 15 or older,<br />
unless closely supervised by a<br />
person over 15 years who is in<br />
immediate reach of the controls.<br />
I will tell you a story that occurred<br />
recently in Kaikoura at<br />
the public boat ramp, it was a<br />
busy day, and there were boats all<br />
waiting to come into shore, the<br />
weather was fine but there was a<br />
strong wind blowing towards the<br />
port side (left side for you landlubbers)<br />
of the vessels coming<br />
into the ramp.<br />
A late model stern drive <strong>Bay</strong>liner<br />
was coming in towards the<br />
boat ramp, and was attempting<br />
to get on the boat trailer, every<br />
time he got close he let the power<br />
off and drifted away, after several<br />
attempts and a crowd of people<br />
watching, some not being very<br />
complementary at all, one of his<br />
mates released the winch rope<br />
on the trailer to its full extent,<br />

walked out into the water chest<br />
deep and attached the rope to<br />
the bow, and then wound the<br />
boat in.<br />
Due to the fact this was a very<br />
unsafe way to bring the boat in, I<br />
spoke to the skipper, it turns out<br />
he had purchased the boat privately<br />
the day before, had never<br />
driven a boat before and was told<br />
that it was easy to operate, well<br />
how wrong he was.<br />
This was a disaster waiting to<br />
happen, not only for the other<br />
boaties in the area but also the<br />
chap in the water trying to<br />
connect the winch rope, as a<br />
result the new boatie was advised<br />
to get someone to teach him to<br />
use the boat correctly and also<br />
do a minimum day skipper<br />
course.<br />
The point I am making is that<br />
if you are going to use any form<br />
of water craft, learn the rules, and<br />
learn how to operate it properly,<br />
then there will be no issues, take<br />
care.<br />
<strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> News asked its<br />
readers what they thought<br />
of a Lyttelton Design<br />
Review Panel being set up<br />
to help decide what could<br />
be built there, and what<br />
buildings could look like.<br />
Nichola Shanley – I recently<br />
resigned from my position as<br />
head of art at Burnside High<br />
School, in part because I could no<br />
longer bring myself to drive past<br />
the mushrooming “beds are us”<br />
mentality of the rebuild through<br />
the tunnel.<br />
Most people approach design,<br />
aesthetic, style in a herd-like<br />
mass-produced, throwaway, stick<br />
another louvre on it dumbness.<br />
You only have to visit Dunedin<br />
and witness the elegant, clever<br />
integration of historical and<br />
contemporary renovation to see<br />
what we are capable of in New<br />
Zealand. Why are we getting it<br />
so wrong in Christchurch and<br />
Lyttelton?<br />
I adore Lyttelton and will no<br />
doubt die an old lady here. But<br />
now I have to be very careful<br />
about where I walk. For example<br />
if I turn a particular corner and<br />
see the “ministry of non-education’s”<br />
building I want to faint in<br />
anger and disgust. This mistake<br />
will be with Lyttelton for a long<br />
time. It is a perfect example of<br />
mindless, fad-driven, insensitive<br />
architecture. It is a disruption<br />
to the environment it occupies.<br />
It occupies like an enemy army<br />
rather than dwelling naturally<br />
FISHERMAN’S<br />
WHARF<br />
within the landscape. It attempts<br />
to be arty but is busy and lacking<br />
in basic design principles. The<br />
clumsy graphics or typography<br />
of the signage only reinforces the<br />
lack of refinement of the overall<br />
design.<br />
Architecture should become<br />
an heirloom. Architecture should<br />
be intelligent. Architecture and<br />
interior design influence our<br />
wellbeing. No, I do not think we<br />
need quirky buildings except perhaps<br />
in a childrens’ playground,<br />
we need intelligent design.<br />
Does Lyttelton need a design<br />
review panel? Tricky, how would<br />
this be any different to a panel<br />
which approves of a person’s fitness<br />
to parent?<br />
Heritage was once a new build.<br />
What we build today will become<br />
our heritage. In 100 years would<br />
we be proud of the plastic painted,<br />
cookie cutter tilt slab, louvre<br />
drenched, faddish structures<br />
popping up overnight?<br />
I was excited by the Stanaways<br />
proposal. I cried and cried the<br />
day they killed the Shadbolt<br />
building. I believe buildings and<br />
gardens have a soul. The day<br />
they fenced off our wharves from<br />
the public was the day Lyttelton<br />
began to fade.<br />

A ‘gold mine’<br />
of footwear<br />
for all ages<br />
The Footwear Factory in Garlands Road<br />
Woolston has been a part of the Christchurch<br />
retail scene for more than a quarter of a century.<br />
Over that time thousands of people have<br />
flocked to the store to find bargains and<br />
good deals in quality footwear, ranging from<br />
children’s shoes, sandals and school shoes to<br />
men’s and women’s fashion and causal shoes,<br />
outdoor and sports shoes, bowls shoes, slippers,<br />
and safety footwear for the workplace.<br />
Launched in a small shop in Papanui, the<br />
business later operated in Riccarton for 12 years<br />
before moving to Garlands Rd 13 years ago.<br />
Owned by Russ and Jude Day, there you<br />
will find shelves lined with footwear in a huge<br />
variety of styles and colours for men, women<br />
and children – a ‘gold mine’ for shoe-seeking<br />
shoppers.<br />
The footwear is brought in from all over the<br />
world, as well as coming from New Zealand<br />
manufacturers, and includes ends of lines and<br />
other well-priced items.<br />
Four main brands are carried – the New<br />
Zealand made McKinlays range of children’s<br />
school shoes, as well as men’s and women’s<br />
styles. The well-known Hi-Tec range of outdoor<br />
footwear and tramping, New Balance sports<br />
shoes and a range of Keens sandals and outdoor<br />
footwear. These known brands cover all ages.<br />
New styles arrive almost every day, so there<br />
are always more to try on, while Russell and his<br />
second-in-charge Karen are happy to advise on<br />
styles and sizing.<br />
Located on a high-profile site at 47C Garlands<br />
Rd, (next to Flags Tyre’s), the Footwear Factory<br />
is easy to find, and there is off-street parking<br />
available.<br />
They are open seven days a week – 9.30am-<br />
5pm Monday to Friday, and 10am-2pm<br />
Saturday and Sunday. Phone 389-3431.<br />

Fashion<br />
City models at big event<br />
• By Annabelle Dick<br />
THREE Christchurch models<br />
will show their stuff this week<br />
at New Zealand’s most popular<br />
fashion show in Auckland.<br />
Rebecca Dore, Georgia Greig<br />
and Lucy Wyma will walk the<br />
catwalk in the New Zealand<br />
Weddings Magazine Show<br />
at New Zealand Fashion<br />
Week.<br />
Portfolio Model Agency director<br />
Mel Radford Brown said<br />
the three girls are some of the<br />
top within the agency and they<br />
reflect the talent Christchurch<br />
has to offer.<br />
“This speak volumes of portfolio<br />
models and the calibre<br />
of our models,” Mrs Radford<br />
Brown said.<br />
Rebecca Dore, 21, of<br />
Burnside, is Portfolio Model<br />
Agency’s booker and a model<br />
for the business.<br />
This is her fourth time walking<br />
at NZFW and she said<br />
she’s thrilled to be a part of one<br />
of the more extravagant shows<br />
of the week.<br />
“I did the wedding show<br />
last year and it was beautiful,”<br />
Miss Dore said.<br />
She has also walked in<br />
Australia’s premier event, the<br />
Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week,<br />
in Sydney.<br />
Miss Greig, 19, formerly of<br />
Timaru, only stepped onto the<br />
modelling scene a year ago after<br />
a friend urged her to enter a<br />
competition.<br />
She’s excited to show at New<br />
Zealand’s premier fashion<br />
event, especially considering<br />
she didn’t even attend the casting<br />
for the event.<br />
“It’s pretty overwhelming<br />
to be chosen because, being<br />
a student, it was financially<br />
unviable to attend casting so<br />
I just hung back and let them<br />
know I was available,” she said.<br />
Miss Greig is studying<br />
design and wants to get a<br />
qualification behind her before<br />
jumping into what can be a<br />
shaky industry.<br />
Miss Wyma, 20, of Papanui,<br />
will also model at the annual<br />
event alongside Miss Greig and<br />
Miss Dore.<br />
The young model was<br />
recently signed to the IMG<br />
International agency, which<br />
has the likes of Gisele Bundchen,<br />
Miranda Kerr and Kate<br />
Moss on its books. The models<br />
will walk in the wedding show<br />
today and Saturday.<br />
BREAK OUT: Georgia Greig will model in fashion week<br />
after only a year in the industry. <br />

Bridal Show<br />
Take the stress out – plan your honeymoon<br />
THE COST and time it takes<br />
to organise a honeymoon<br />
can often be underestimated<br />
when couples are planning<br />
their weddings.<br />
But at Sunday’s With This<br />
Ring Bridal Show, there will<br />
be a number of exhibitors<br />
there to take the stress out<br />
of it.<br />
Hello World Travel’s<br />
Rangiora and Rolleston<br />
branches will be at the show,<br />
with a group of experts<br />
to talk to people who are<br />
looking into the planning.<br />
Rangiora branch managing<br />
director Liz Ditmer said<br />
often people had unrealistic<br />
expectations of how much<br />
honeymoons could cost.<br />
She said people also had to<br />
start planning their trips well<br />
in advance, and their teams<br />
would be at next Sunday’s<br />
show to help people do so.<br />
“We’re just there to start<br />
pointing them in the right<br />
direction,” she said.<br />
“We can make<br />
appointments and sit down<br />
with them at a later time to<br />
talk in more detail.”<br />
This year’s show will have<br />
85 exhibitors ranging from<br />
wedding and bridesmaid<br />
gowns, photography,<br />
honeymoons, flowers,<br />
stationary, caterers, venue<br />
hire and many more.<br />
On top of that, there will<br />
be more than $22,000 of<br />
prizes to be won.<br />
A wedding and<br />
honeymoon at Norfolk<br />
Island will be up for grabs, as<br />
well as a honeymoon at The<br />
Edgewater Resort and Spa in<br />
Rarotonga.<br />
Venue hire up to the value<br />
of $4050 for Wigram Base<br />
will be up for grabs, along<br />
with many more prizes and<br />
giveaways.<br />
Two fashion catwalks will<br />
be held, one at 11am and the<br />
other at 2pm, showcasing<br />
wedding gowns and mother<br />
of the bride outfits.<br />
•The With This Ring Bridal<br />
Show will be held at the<br />
Air Force Museum of<br />
New Zealand, Wigram,<br />
on Sunday (<strong>August</strong><br />

may be covered for varicose vein treatment,<br />
providing it is included in their policy.<br />
appearance medicine is another key<br />
aspect of Transform Clinic’s therapy<br />
options, with skin rejuvenation and skintightening<br />
treatments designed to improve<br />
skin quality as well as enhance self-esteem.<br />

be combined to achieve the desired results.<br />

superficial veins on the legs and face. in<br />

removal.<br />

Travel<br />
Relive the West Coast’s gold rush days<br />
• By Mike Yardley<br />
HEMMED IN by the Tasman<br />
Sea and the serrated peaks of the<br />
Main Divide, there really is no<br />
region in New Zealand quite like<br />
Westland.<br />
After tootling from Christchurch<br />
to Greymouth on the<br />
TranzAlpine, I swapped the rail<br />
tracks for the roadway to freeroam<br />
the West Coast’s delights.<br />
My first stop was Shantytown, a<br />
faithfully re-created 1860s goldmining<br />
town, complete with pub<br />
and post office.<br />
Highlights include the cluster<br />
of 30 gold rush era buildings,<br />
painted in the bright colours of<br />
boiled sweets. Enjoy a tipple in<br />
the evocative Golden Nugget<br />
Hotel, learn the art of gold panning<br />
and enjoy the short movie<br />
in the opulent Victorian-themed<br />
theatre.<br />
Heading further south on SH6,<br />
I went as far as Ross, a cute-as-abutton<br />
settlement, with a storied<br />
past in gold mining. The historic<br />
village of glories lost sports a cluster<br />
of colonial buildings, including<br />
the old Ross jail and miners’<br />
cottages.<br />
From Ross, I ventured back up<br />
SH6, to take in Treetops walk,<br />
traversing the canopy of the<br />
NATURAL: The turquoise colour of the Hokitika Gorge is<br />
caused by glacial flour seeping into the water.<br />
podocarp forest by Lake Mahinapua.<br />
Twenty-five metres above<br />
the forest floor, the mesh-steel<br />
gantry leads you through a dense<br />
vista of native forest, with giant<br />
specimens of rimu, kamahi and<br />
matai, interspersed with tree<br />
ferns, orchids, liverworts and<br />
fellow forest floor residents. www.<br />
treetopsnz.com<br />
Follow the signposts to Kokatahi<br />
and Kowhitirangi. The<br />
West Coast’s multitude of vivid<br />
greens comes into sharp focus<br />
as you wend your way through<br />
the fertile farmland. From here, a<br />
short gravel road leads you to one<br />
of my favourite New Zealand settings,<br />
the ravishing granite ravine<br />
of Hokitika Gorge, deep in the<br />
Whitcombe Valley.<br />
Right by the alpine fault, surrounded<br />
by dense native bush,<br />
thronging with native birds, the<br />
turquoise water is so absurdly<br />
vivid and otherworldly, it looks<br />
photo-shopped. (It’s due to the<br />
glacial flour seeping into the<br />
water.)<br />
But after heavy rain, the water<br />
turns a soupy grey, so you will be<br />
at the mercy of the weather gods.<br />
RESTORED: The Theatre<br />
Royal Hotel in Kumara first<br />
opened in 1876.<br />
Complete your valley circuit<br />
by shadowing the eastern side<br />
of Lake Kaniere and the lusty<br />
waterworks of Dorothy Falls.<br />
From there, a plethora of lakeside<br />
spots beckoning you to pause,<br />
before completing the circuit in<br />
Hokitika.<br />
You’d be hard pressed to find<br />
any other town or city in New<br />
Zealand with more galleries,<br />
studios and arty types. I spent all<br />
day admiring the studios, talking<br />
to the painters, glass blowers,<br />
craftspeople and pounamu carvers.<br />
For a legendary West Coast<br />
hospitality experience truly out of<br />
the box, you must stay a night at<br />
the resplendently restored Theatre<br />
Royal Hotel in Kumara. Handily<br />
located half way between Greymouth<br />
and Hokitika, this grand<br />
old hotel first opened its doors in<br />
in 1876, at the start of the Kumara<br />
gold rush.<br />
The current owners Kerrie<br />
and Mark Fitzgibbon bought the<br />
derelict hotel in 2010, spending<br />
nearly three years to restore it.<br />
You’ll enjoy a heady dose of<br />
Kumara’s community spirit in the<br />
bar and dining area every night,<br />
which spills forth with vintage<br />
West Coast conviviality. I feasted<br />
on fresh turbot in beer batter,<br />
while for dessert, don’t go past the<br />
apple crumble and custard.<br />
Unsurprisingly, the hotel is<br />
repeatedly showered with awards.<br />
You must experience it. www.<br />

Hyundai’s Elantra stands test of time<br />
• By Ross Kiddie<br />
HYUNDAI’S Lantra, or Elantra<br />
as it is now known, is one of<br />
the company’s most successful<br />
nameplates.<br />
It was first introduced as a midsize<br />
sedan in 1990, and has progressed<br />
through five generations;<br />
the latest all-new, sixth-generation<br />
variant has just been released<br />
onto the New Zealand market.<br />
The Elantra arrives in two<br />
specifications, both with the<br />
one body style, bearing in mind<br />
that previous generation models<br />
have had station wagon options.<br />
I guess with the way the station<br />
wagon market has given way to<br />
sport utility vehicles, Hyundai<br />
would still be comfortable with<br />
just the one variation.<br />
Elsewhere, the concept of<br />
Elantra hasn’t changed, it captures<br />
all of the features which has<br />
made the model so successful, yet<br />
packages them in a functional,<br />
appealing package.<br />
The evaluation car was badged<br />
Elite specification and lists at<br />
$39,990, an entry-level model sits<br />
$4000 below that.<br />
Under the bonnet sits a<br />
2-litre, twin-camshaft, petrol<br />
engine which is a relatively new<br />
design for the Korean company.<br />
Rated with power outputs of<br />
112kW (6200rpm) and 192Nm<br />
ELANTRA ELITE: .Important part of the Hyundai line-up.<br />
(4000rpm) it is a free-revving<br />
unit which drives through a sixspeed<br />
automatic gearbox, incidentally<br />
it is the only transmission<br />
in the range.<br />
Hyundai also claim a 7.2-litre<br />
per 100km (39mpg) combined<br />
cycle fuel usage rating for the<br />
Elantra. During my 150km road<br />
evaluation the fuel usage readout<br />
was listing constantly at around<br />
8.6l/100km (33mpg) which sat<br />
well with Hyundai’s claim. At<br />
100km/h on the highway the<br />
engine is turning over at just<br />
2100rpm in top gear providing a<br />
5l/100km (56mpg) instantaneous<br />
return.<br />
Hyundai have long had a reputation<br />
for building high quality<br />
vehicles, and those which provide<br />
its occupants with comfort and<br />
an easy driving experience. The<br />
Elantra doesn’t dip out on those<br />
facets.<br />
I drove my usual test route<br />
through the Canterbury high<br />
country. It cruises quietly on<br />
the long straights and has direct<br />
steering into a corner.<br />
The suspension is a mixture of<br />
McPherson struts up front and<br />
a torsion beam rear. As much as<br />
I like fully independent designs,<br />
the simplistic system in the<br />
Elantra is well located and movement<br />
isn’t compromised greatly.<br />
It isn’t overly firmed through<br />
the spring and dampers, absorption<br />
over Christchurch’s ruts and<br />
FUNCTIONAL: Apple<br />
CarPlay will allow on-screen<br />
infotainment from your<br />
iPhone.<br />
bumps is arrested, and when you<br />
push into a corner it is composed<br />
through the underpinnings with<br />
balanced body movement.<br />
Providing the grip are Koreanmade<br />
Hankook Ventus tyres<br />
(225/45 x 17in). They are sticky<br />
compound, and issue the driver<br />
with solid feedback as to how<br />
they are reacting to cornering<br />
pressure.<br />
Add to that the solid flow<br />
of power that arrives from the<br />
engine and you have a vehicle<br />
that could easily be classed as a<br />
sports sedan. Sure, its demeanour<br />
doesn’t suggest that it is truly<br />
exotic, but what its performance<br />
translates into is a responsive,<br />
dynamic car which is at home<br />
on the twisty nature of New<br />
Zealand’s roads.<br />
• Price – Hyundai Elanta<br />
Elite, $39,990<br />
• Dimensions – Length,<br />
4570mm; width, 1800mm;<br />
height, 1440mm<br />

six-speed automatic.<br />
• Performance – 0-100km/<br />
h, 9.4sec<br />
• Fuel usage– 7.2l/100km<br />
In terms of specification, the<br />
Elantra arrives with a host of<br />
features for comfort and convenience<br />
and, of course, safety. Some<br />
of the major items of fitment<br />
include full leather trim with<br />
heated front seats, touch screen<br />
display with Apple CarPlay, keyless<br />
entry and ignition, cruise<br />
control and dual-zone climate<br />
control.<br />
I’ve written many times in the<br />
past about the direction Hyundai<br />
is taking as a company. It has<br />
high aspirations and the model<br />
line-up is vast.<br />
Hyundai has done the hard<br />
yards in establishing itself as a<br />
globally recognised manufacturer<br />
of first-class vehicles, and it’s fine<br />
cars like the Elantra that will keep<br />
those loyal to the brand entertained<br />
and satisfied for many<br />
years to come.<br />

Davis Cup event returns to Christchurch<br />
The New Zealand Davis<br />
Cup team are heading back to<br />
Christchurch to take on Pakistan in<br />
the Asia-Oceania Group 1 second<br />
round playoff. The Tie is being<br />
held from Friday 16 September to<br />
Sunday 18 September, indoors at<br />
Z Energy Wilding Park.<br />
Kiwi Olympians Michael Venus<br />
and Marcus Daniell ranked 41<br />
and 58 respective in the world<br />
for doubles have been named<br />
alongside Finn Tearney ranked<br />
381, Rubin Statham at 444 in<br />
singles. If Statham takes the court<br />
he will beat Onny Parun’s New<br />
Zealand Davis Cup record of the<br />
most ties played for his country of<br />
25 ties.<br />
It is likely Pakistan will select<br />
their doubles expert Aisam<br />
Qureshi who is 36-years-old and<br />
ranked 48th in doubles. Aqeel<br />
Khan is another likely veteran<br />
who should be selected.<br />
New Zealand lead Pakistan<br />
3-1 in head-to-head clashes. The<br />
last time the two sides clashed it<br />
was a 4-1 win for New Zealand<br />
in Myanmar in 2013 which was<br />
abandoned.<br />
Christchurch has been the home<br />
of Davis Cup ties since 2014, with<br />
a win against Chinese Taipei in<br />
2014 and a close 3-2 loss to India<br />
in the 2015 semi-finals. Tennis<br />
Canterbury is extremely excited<br />
to host yet another Davis Cup tie<br />
for the third consecutive year. This<br />
is a return to the glory days that<br />
has seen Tennis Canterbury host<br />
numerous Davis Cup ties against<br />
some of the superpower of world<br />
tennis.<br />
Z Energy Wilding Park is one<br />
of the oldest sport venues still in<br />
operation in all of Canterbury.<br />
It has played host to Davis<br />
Cup matches as far back as the<br />
1910’s and 20’s. Much like many<br />
of Christchurch’s other most<br />
important sporting facilities<br />
Wilding Park was severely<br />
impacted by the Christchurch<br />
Earthquake impacted in both<br />
September 2009 and February<br />
2010.<br />
The rebuilding process has<br />
been a long one. Mixed emotions<br />
were felt at the demolition of the<br />
iconic Memorial Stands, host to<br />
numerous Davis Cup Tie and other<br />
International Tennis Federation<br />
events. However it was also the first<br />
bit of tangible progress in relation<br />
to the redevelopment of Wilding<br />
Park and proved to generate<br />
some real excitement amongst the<br />
tennis community. Strengthening<br />
work on the facility’s structural<br />
steel and refurbishment of the<br />
administration and function<br />
space erased any signs of the<br />
earthquake damage and provided<br />
the wider community with some<br />
great function space.<br />
The final stage of development<br />
will see the reinstatement of<br />
six additional outdoor courts,<br />
the development of a grassy<br />
embankment for spectator viewing<br />
and social spaces, including a<br />
barbeque area. The facility will<br />
continue to be available to the<br />
local communities, including<br />
school, charitable organisations<br />
and, in some cases, other sports<br />
outside of normal hours. The<br />
final stage of development work<br />
is scheduled to be gin in the<br />
coming month with a completion<br />
date of mid November, just in<br />
time for the Summer of Tennis.<br />
This development will allow<br />
Canterbury to again host National<br />
Age Group events, International<br />
Events and, of course, future<br />
Summer Davis Cup ties.<br />
This year’s Davis Cup tie is a<br />
three day event. Two singles will<br />
be played on Friday, doubles on<br />
Saturday and the two reverse<br />
singles on Sunday. Matches are<br />
the best of five sets. Tickets and<br />
Corporate Boxes are available.<br />

Cantabrian Tennis Player USA Bound<br />
On the 1st June <strong>2016</strong>, Jack Tiller<br />
signed a national letter of intent<br />
with Southeastern Oklahoma State<br />
University, located in Durant,<br />
Oklahoma, USA.<br />
From the age of 15 Jack’s overall<br />
goal in tennis was to gain a<br />
scholarship to train, play and study<br />
in the United States of America.<br />
Through taking part in Canterbury<br />
Performance squads since the age of<br />
12, he constantly saw older players<br />
being granted scholarships and<br />
given opportunities to experience<br />
American lifestyle through<br />
tennis while gaining invaluable<br />
experiences. Seeing others excel<br />
in the college tennis system<br />
encouraged him to start<br />
preparation for enrolment in<br />
Fall <strong>2016</strong>.<br />
In October of 2015, Jack<br />
got in contact with John<br />
Gardner, the head coach in<br />
the Nelson/Marlborough region<br />
and his company, Inspire Sports.<br />
John’s expertise guided Jack<br />
through a comprehensive checklist<br />
of what he needed to achieve to<br />
reach his ultimate goal of signing<br />
with a college that fitted in well with<br />
what he wanted. John’s personalised<br />
programme was a great help. It<br />
began with initial meetings with<br />
Jack and his father so John could<br />
understand what they were looking<br />
for in a college. John then set out a<br />
‘Plan of attack” on how they would<br />
go about getting a contract. They<br />
began working together through<br />
each stage, which included NCAA<br />
registration, skills video, personal<br />
website, SAT and GPA results and<br />
working through what colleges Jack<br />
wanted to contact. Jack believes that<br />
it would not have been possible for<br />
him to work through everything<br />
that needed to be done without<br />
John’s outstanding expertise and<br />
knowledge. Jack found John’s<br />
attention to detail and reliability to<br />
be outstanding.<br />
Jack began talks with the coach<br />
from Southeastern Oklahoma State<br />
University in March of this year. The<br />
coach expressed his interest in Jack<br />
joining the college team and, after<br />
talking through email, the college<br />
made an offer for Jack to attend<br />
their college and become part of the<br />
Savage Storm athletic family. After<br />
the initial paper work, Jack signed a<br />
national letter of intent, committing<br />
Jack to attending the university.<br />
Through his years of training,<br />
Jack’s ultimate goal was to get to<br />
university. Jack is a self-professed<br />
‘late bloomer’ in tennis. During his<br />
junior years, he describes himself as<br />
a mediocre player who was always<br />
outside the top player category.<br />
Through growth, maturity and the<br />
help of the Canterbury training<br />
programme, he was able to play<br />
smarter tennis and achieve positive<br />
results. Coaching by Alistair Hunt<br />
and Matt Meredith has afforded<br />
Jack the opportunity to learn from<br />
the best and use their expertise on<br />
court, creating a huge advantage.<br />
Jack has represented Canterbury<br />
in multiple ties including<br />
Canterbury vs Marlborough,<br />
City vs Country, Canterbury<br />
team’s event and also the<br />
Canterbury men’s team. In 2015<br />
he won the under 18 Canterbury<br />
Championships, a great result to put<br />
on his college application form.<br />
Jack has always loved the fact that<br />
tennis is mostly an individual sport,<br />
results are based on a player’s own<br />
ability and there are no excuses. Jack<br />
has always enjoyed competing in<br />
Canterbury Interclub representing<br />
his club of Elmwood. He is grateful<br />
to Ashley Forbes for giving him<br />
the opportunity to play top level<br />
tennis in the premiere grade against<br />
great players like James Meredith,<br />
Remi Fennon and other top rated<br />
players in the region. Jack feels that<br />
it through playing top level players<br />
that he has learned the most, even if<br />
it involved losing.<br />
During tennis season, Jack trains<br />
or plays every day of the week. Each<br />
week also includes four sessions of<br />
hitting, two fitness sessions and two<br />
days of interclub matches on the<br />
weekends. During the off season<br />
Jack keeps training with hitting<br />
three days a week and a fitness<br />
session and match play on the<br />
weekends.<br />
Jack chooses to keep his future<br />
goals simple. His immediate goal<br />
is to do the best he can to prepare<br />
for college and to give himself the<br />
best chance of success. For Jack,<br />
this means being fit and healthy,<br />
requiring him to train as well as he<br />
can every time he gets on the court.<br />
Over the long term, Jack plans to<br />
take every opportunity he can at<br />
Southeastern Oklahoma State in<br />
order to reach his full potential<br />
whilst there, not just in tennis, but<br />
also in academic life.<br />
For younger players aspiring to<br />
play college tennis, Jack’s advice is<br />
to never give up. Jack recalls many<br />
moments in his time of playing<br />
tennis when he thought he wasn’t<br />
good enough, or wasn’t able to<br />
compete to his full potential. Not<br />
TENNIS CANTERBURY <strong>2016</strong> / 2017 CALENDAR<br />
being the best player in the region<br />
or the nation is not a problem;<br />
it’s a challenge. By embracing<br />
that challenge, working hard and<br />
training, it is possible to shorten the<br />
gap between the different levels in<br />
order to compete in top level tennis.<br />
Have a goal and go for it!<br />
Jack invites anyone interested in<br />
college tennis to feel free to ask any<br />
questions. He will be happy to try<br />
and answer!<br />

Tennis Canterbury names Redcliff’s Club<br />
President as Volunteer of the Year<br />
Redcliffs Tennis Club’s president, Di France, has been named Tennis<br />
Canterbury’s Volunteer of the Year.<br />
Following the February 2011 earthquake, Redcliffs Tennis Club was faced<br />
with uninsured damages estimated at $200,000. Di France, a former president<br />
of the club from 1981-1983, heard rumours that the troubled club may be forced<br />
to close and to sell its grounds. After a 22 year hiatus from tennis, Di stepped<br />
forward as voluntary project manager to rescue the tennis club on behalf of her<br />
community. She singlehandedly applied for community grants to reinstate the<br />
damaged courts, then project managed the repair work. This involved digging up<br />
the courts, relaying with a base then a temporary surface, and finally a finish of<br />
Synpave.<br />
Di was once again elected President of the Redcliff ’s Tennis Club when the club<br />
reopened in May 2013. Under her supervision, the club has grown from 40 junior<br />
and 22 senior members to 132 juniors and 35 affiliated senior members.<br />
Di continues to be the driving force behind the tennis club. She has established<br />
junior tennis coaching, first by engaging Stu Chalmers as junior coach for the<br />
2013/2014 season, then by organising for Evie Ruegg to take on the Head Coach<br />
role. Di also established social senior club tennis on Tuesday and Friday mornings,<br />
which she herself attends. Along with her husband, Roger, Di undertakes regular<br />
maintenance of the courts, club house and hall.<br />
Redcliffs Tennis Club now enjoys a renewed place in the community. The club<br />
leases its hall to the displaced Redcliffs Public Library. Using networks she has built<br />
throughout Redcliffs, Di encourages strong community and family participation<br />
in club events. She regularly offers her own services to club activities, cooking<br />
sausages and preparing afternoon teas for prize-givings and end of season parties.<br />
Redcliffs Tennis Club offers club, interclub, social and casual tennis.<br />

Have Fun and Get Fit<br />
with Cardio Tennis<br />
Looking for a way to get fit, have fun and<br />
meet new people? Cardio Tennis is a fitness<br />
programme offered at tennis clubs across<br />
Canterbury. Combining the best features of<br />
tennis with cardiovascular exercise, Cardio<br />
Tennis delivers a fun, full-body, calorieburning<br />
aerobic workout ¬– even if you have<br />
never played tennis before.<br />
Cardio Tennis uses low-compression tennis<br />
balls which travel at a slower speed, making<br />
it easier for a beginner to hit the ball. More<br />
advanced players will be challenged by a<br />
range of activities that cater to all skill levels.<br />
Cardio Tennis works by raising participants’<br />
heart rates into their aerobic training zone. At<br />
the beginning of each session, participants<br />
are equipped with heart rate monitors before<br />
exercising to music and using a variety of<br />
modified equipment to elevate the heart<br />
rate. Like interval training, periods of high<br />
intensity are followed by short periods of rest.<br />
Cardio Tennis combines fun with<br />
spectacular success. Women can burn up to<br />
500 calories in a 60 minute workout. Men<br />
can burn up to 800 calories. Cardio Tennis<br />
coaches are Tennis NZ registered and trained<br />
to ensure that participants get a great workout<br />
while improving their tennis skills.<br />
Even if you’re not good at tennis, Cardio<br />
Tennis can provide a fun, social way to keep<br />
fit. Contact Tennis Canterbury to find a<br />
Cardio Tennis programme near you.<br />

Play is designed to give kids<br />
the chance to have a hit in a<br />

New Zealand-wide by parents,<br />
club volunteers and NZPTHS<br />
coaches.<br />
