THE CITY council’s decision to alter 

wording on thousands of property 

reports affected by coastal hazards has 

been described as a “gutless” move. 

Christchurch Coastal Residents United 

spokesman Dr Darrell Latham is reeling 

after the city council tweaked unreliable 

coastal hazard information listed on 

Land Information Memorandum for 

homes in Christchurch and Banks Peninsula. 

The city council altered the details put 

on LIMs on Monday after a review of the 

original Coastal Hazards Assessment Report 

found more scientific work needed 

to be done. 

Dr Darrell Latham said in spite of altering 

the report, the information showing 

properties are at risk from coastal 

hazards has been left on LIMs. 

He said the city council is “gutless” for 

only tweaking the wording. 

“The information needs to be correct 

and the peer review from the coastal 

experts is the best available information. 

The council needs to listen to the recommendations 

and remove it from LIMs 

because it’s legally unsound,” he said. 

The original Tonkin & Taylor report 

found numerous houses in the area are at 

risk of coastal erosion and flooding and 

that information has gone on affected 

homeowners’ LIM reports. 

The review panel urged the city 

council to remove it and undertake more 

research because the maps identifying atrisk 

properties could be legally unsound.

Lifesavers without clubrooms 

Quake damage 

forces 

temporary 

closure 


TAYLORS MISTAKE Surf 

Lifesaving’s clubrooms will 

be closed for at least two years 

because of earthquake damage. 

At structural engineer report 

has found the building was 

unsafe after it sustained damage 

on the Valentine’s Day 

earthquake earlier 

this year. 

Club president 

Tisha Bradley 

(left) said after the 

quake they had 

engineers in to 

check the building’s structure. 

“There was a lot of movement 

in the building while we were 

over there on patrol and subsequently 

they came back and 

said the building is earthquake 

prone,” 

As a result, the clubhouse has 

been closed until further notice 

to the more than 200 club 

members. 

“I envisage it’ll be for at least 

DAMAGED: Taylors Mistake Surf Lifesaving Club will be closed because structural 

engineers have deemed the building unsafe. 

PHOTO: GEOFF SLOAN 

two to three years,” Ms Bradley 

said. 

The surf lifesaving club has a 

contingency plan in place and 

intend to practice out of two 

freight containers. 

“One will act as a patrol 

room and the other will be a 

first aid lounge area so we’ll 

have to use public facilities 

like public toilets and showers. 

We’ll be in a similar position 

that Sumner was,” she said. 

The club was already in the 

middle of settling insurance 

claims after receiving quake 

damage and now members will 

have to discuss with insurers 

what the fate of the building 

will be. 

“Hopefully, our discussions 

with our insurer come to an 

end sooner rather than later 

and then we can go from there 

on how we’ll continue,” Ms 

Bradley said. 

The club will either be repaired 

or rebuilt. 

“We’d like to do something 

as dramatic and gorgeous as 

Sumner Surf Lifesaving Club 

but it depends on what we 

get through insurance,” she 

said. 

The Taylors Mistake Surf 

Lifesaving Club is awaiting 

consent from the city council 

and park rangers to put two 

containers in temporarily. 

In Brief 

BERTH TESTS 

Lyttelton Port is constructing a 

new oil and gas berth to replace 

the existing earthquake-damaged 

docking site. LPC has started 

testing from a floating barge to 

understand the seabed to ensure 

an appropriate dredging operation 

can be conducted. The berth will 

be redeveloped slightly north from 

its existing position and LPC will 

provide further updates as the 

project continues. 

SPEED LIMIT CHANGE 

The speed limit on Mt Pleasant Rd 

has changed after a motion from 

the Hagley/Ferrymead Community 

Board was passed. The board 

decided to extend the 50km/h 

speed limit an extra 450m south on 

Mt Pleasant Rd to just past Upper 

Major Hornbrook Rd. The 70km/h 

speed limit will begin from Upper 

Major Hornbrook Rd to Summit 

Rd. It came into force on August 31. 

FOOTPATH OBSTRUCTION 

To resolve issues raised from 

residents, the city council has put a 

management plan in place to fix an 

ongoing obstruction on Oxford St. 

Repairs to a building on 16 Oxford 

St have taken over the surrounding 

footpath for almost two years. 

Fences were installed to block off 

the works but that has taken over 

most of the pathway as well limiting 

access.

Volunteers 

needed to 

curb crime 


THE COMMUNITY Patrol City 

to Sumner is seeking volunteers to 

help in decreasing the amount of 

burglaries and thefts in Lyttelton. 

A spate of burglaries in the area 

has seen the number increase and 

community members have shared 

concerns about the multiple commercial 

and residential burglaries 

and thefts in the past month. 

The Lyttelton-Mt Herbert Community 

Board has recommended 

people get involved with the patrol 

to help deter crime. 

The Community Patrol City to 

Sumner, which patrols Lyttelton, is 

seeking additional volunteer drivers 

and interested residents can 

phone the Lyttelton Police Station 

on 378 0200. The board also said 

all residents need to report burglaries 

on 363 7400 so that more 

police resources could be put into 

Lyttelton if warranted. 

The board is investigating installing 

a moveable camera in hot 

spots around Lyttelton to deter and 

monitor crime. 

The board has also requested 

that city council staff investigate 

options for Crime Prevention 

through Environmental Design on 

London St, Lyttelton.

Peninsula spending up 


MORE MONEY is being spent 

in Banks Peninsula as new 

statistics show retail spending 

has increased. 

The June 2016 Christchurch 

Retail report shows that 

$48,622,680 million was spent 

in the retail sector in Banks 

Peninsula between June 2015 

and June 2016. 

That’s 15.4 per cent more than 

the previous year’s figure of 

about $42.1 million. 

Retail spending has increased 

in spite of four less cruise ship 

visits in Akaroa and a two per 

cent drop in the growth rate 

of passenger numbers over the 

year to June 2016. 

Peninsula General Store 

owner Ken Marshall said he’s 

seen a big jump in the amount 

that people spend when they 

visit Akaroa. 

“Over summer it was a lot 

busier so I can understand why 

the figures are up,” he said. 

The report states that the 

spending may reflect either an 

increased spend per passenger 

or more domestic tourism. 

“I think there’s more people 

coming over from Christchurch. 

Either they’re Christchurch 

people or people landing 

CASHFLOW: More money is circulating around Banks 

Peninsula’s economy 

in Christchurch. We’re definitely 

seeing an increase in that 

sort of tourism,” Mr Marshall 

said. 

Christchurch 

& Canterbury 

Tourism chief 

executive Vic 

Allen (left) 

said he thinks 

there’s a 

number of reasons why Banks 

Peninsula spending has risen. 

“New Zealand is in the middle 

of a tourism boom and more 

specifically Christchurch airport 

has seen passenger numbers 

grow, particularly from 

China. We know the Chinese 

like visiting places like Akaroa 

and Banks Peninsula so I think 

that’s part of it,” he said. 

“Also the domestic Christchurch 

market is going to Akaroa 

as the weather has been good 

for holidaying. Lyttelton is 

Couples 

Getaway 

also starting to make a name 

for itself with their cafes and 

restaurants so I think it’s a combination 

of all those things.” 

Mr Allen believes the growth 

in spending is a trend that’s going 

to continue. 

“Banks Peninsula has a lot of 

potential to become even more 

popular and appealing as a 

destination and we know that 

Christchurch residents love going 

there as do overseas visitors 

as well,” Mr Allen said. 

International cardholder 

spending has increased by 12.4 

per cent in Christchurch which 

is slightly above the national 

increase of 11.4 per cent.

Kindergarten battle not over 


A NUMBER of McCormacks 

Bay Rd homeowners are happy a 

kindergarten was denied resource 

consent 

YOUR 

to build opposite them, 

but the battle isn’t 

GIFT GIFT 

over yet. 

Kidsfirst applied for resource 

consent to run a 50-person early 

childhood centre next to the Mt 

Pleasant Community Centre but 

were declined due to a city council 

mistake. 

A property on the street was 

meant to notified about the application 

but initially it wasn’t 

65 WHEN OR MORE YOU ON SPEND REVLON $65 * OR MORE ON REVLON * 

seen as a property affected by 

the centre, so Kidsfirst have 

resubmitted their application. 

McCormacks Bay residents 

Suzanne Sullivan, Graham 

Keats and Margaret Evrard all 

opposed the application as the 

building would have a significant 

affect on their view of the 

estuary. 

“It’s such a joy to be here. 

This is our investment and our 

VALUED

home for all three of us these 

were meant to be our retirement 

homes and we’ve been looking 

forward to enjoying this view,” 

Ms Sullivan said.

was damaged in the February 

22, 2011, earthquake and will 

sit 26m west of their former 

site. 

The centre will run longer 

from 8am to 5pm with an 

estimated 200 vehicles expected 

to move in and out of McCormacks 

Bay Rd. 

The homeowners said the 

narrow strip is a very dangerous 

place for a kindergarten as 

Main Rd is only metres away 

and McCormacks Bay Rd is 

notoriously unsafe as it has a 

blind corner. 

“While the community centre 

was being rebuilt there was three 

accidents – one of them had 

their door cleaned right off its 

hinges,” Mr Keats said. 

“It’s really bad from a safety 

aspect as kids are going to be 

loaded and unloaded during the 

peak times for traffic.” 

The residents proposed the 

move the centre closer to the 

community centre or to the 

other side of the centre where 

there’s more space and no blind 

corners. 

The commissioner said the 

resource consent was declined 

purely due to the notification 

process and not on the proposal 

itself. 

Kidsfirst has reapplied for a 

resource consent and the hearing 

has been set for October. 

Coastal hazard 

report concerns 

•From page 1 

City council chief executive 

Dr Karleen Edwards decided to 

change the coastal hazard wording 

on the LIMs of the 18,000 

properties identified as being 

vulnerable to coastal hazards. 

However, the update will still 

state houses are at risk from 

coastal hazards but it won’t be 

specific about the extent of the 

risk and whether the risk comes 

from erosion or flooding. 

Dr Latham said Christchurch 

Coastal Residents United plan 

on fighting it and pursuing legal 

action if the information is not 

removed. 

“We will not shy away. We’ve 

carried this issue right through 

to this stage. We challenged the 

original report, we put the council 

under pressure and they decided 

to review that report. That review 

has suggested the council remove 

the current coastal hazard mapping 

off the LIMs until more 

rigorous research can be done,” 

he said. 

The report focused on areas of 

urban development and assessed 

Brooklands, Avon-Heathcote 

Estuary, Sumner and Taylors Mistake, 

Waimairi Beach to Southshore, 

Duvauchelle, Takamatua, 

Akaroa, Wainui, Charteris Bay, 

Teddington, Allandale and Purau.

Our People 

Author unearths the history of 

Governors Bay’s Jane Robertson is documenting 

the long history of the head of the harbour in a new 

book which is about to be released. Our reporter 

Annabelle Dick spoke to her about quitting her 

job to dedicate her hours to the time-consuming 

publication, the surprises she uncovered and how 

the peninsula kept dragging her back. 

Your book Head of the Harbour 

is about to be released, can you 

tell me about it? 

It’s a history of the area from 

Teddington around to Governors 

Bay – so Teddington, Allandale 

Ohinetahi, Governors Bay and 

Sandy Bay. It’s really a history 

starting with the formation of 

the landscape and the volcanoes 

in Lyttelton and Akaroa. It looks 

at the land, the fauna and flora 

and then it comes forward and 

looks at Maori history and the 

Maori settlement at Ohinetahi. 

Then there’s the European 

settlement and it goes from 

there. It’s being launched at the 

beginning of December and it’s 

being published by David Bundy. 

Why did you decide to write 

the book? 

It started off as a little project, 

and I thought I’d interview 

some of the older residents in 

Governors Bay to get some 

record of their stories. It wasn’t 

going to be any more than that 

but talking to David Bundy he 

said someone should write a 

book on the head of the harbour 

and I thought I’d do it. 

How did you go about 

sourcing information? 

It took me five years worth of 

gathering to compile the book. I 

went on conducting interviews 

with local older people and I 

realised that to make sense of 

what they were talking about 

I needed to do some more 

research myself and better 

understand that ground. So I got 

into archival research using old 

newspapers, the museum library, 

resources that were available as 

well as unpublished materials. 

Another primary source was 

diaries and letters from local 

families. 

Was there any discoveries you 

made that surprised you? 

HOME: Jane Robertson considers Governors Bay her 

‘turangawaewae’ or the place where she stands in life. 

That’s a big one. A few things 

actually . . . well something I 

didn’t know was that there was 

a Maori pa on the side of Mt 

Bradley. Another thing that 

was a puzzle was to do with 

“Exclusive range 

of pottery, 

furniture, 

handcrafts, 

stoneware & 

gifts” 

the jetties around the harbour. 

One of the things that I learnt 

was that in Teddington in the 

1860s there was a 90m jetty 

that extended out into the mud 

flats and there’s still evidence 

of the jetty there but it was 

washed away in the 1868 tidal 

wave. There was a lot of activity 

going on up there and this was 

a major jetty and I found that 

really interesting. Also the fact 

that the Governors Bay jetty 

was on record as being built in 

1883 but it was actually built 

back in about 1874 and then it 

was extended twice because of 

the mud flats and because of the 

fact it kept silting up. Another 

thing that surprises me was one 

of the first arriving families, 

Samuel and Jean Manson, had 

17 children – here they were, 

they were pioneers and setting 

up their own farm and she was 

just having children one after 

another. They must have worked 

so hard. This also used to be an 

orchard and horticultural area – 

there were lots of plums, apricot 

trees, outdoor tomatoes and 

early potatoes. Almost 

all of that is gone now but 

it really defines the nature 

of Allandale, Ohinetahi and 

Governors Bay.

BAY HARBOUR 

PAGE 7 

Banks Peninsula 

How far does the book go 

back? 

The Maori history goes 

well back but in terms of the 

European history, the first 

European’s to settle here were the 

Manson and the Gebbie family 

in Teddington and that was 1845 

so that was before the first four 

ships arrived in Lyttelton. 

How have residents reacted 

to it? 

I think there’s a lot of interest 

locally, the people I talk to have 

been wonderful and a number 

of them I’ve got back to and 

talked to several times and each 

time something new comes out 

like pictures, images, artefacts 

and stories. Some people have 

written family histories about 

the area and there are other 

publications available but there 

hasn’t been anything that’s 

covered the whole area and 

brought it all together. I think 

people are looking forward to 

having it documented in one 

place. Plus the book has a lot of 

photos and some of them are 

from museums, libraries and 

family collections that people 

haven’t seen before. 

What was the biggest 

challenge when putting the 

book together? 

There were several. One of 

the challenges was that I wasn’t 

getting any income – I was doing 

it part-time so you have to be 

pretty keen to stick to something 

on that basis. Another thing was 

the earthquake because when 

I started on it the libraries and 

the document research centre 

at the museum were closed so 

it was quite some time before I 

could access documents. Also for 

private people helping me, their 

material was disrupted from 

the earthquake as well and they 

couldn’t get to it. 

So are you an author by 

trade? 

This is the first book I’ve 

written. I’m a teacher and an 

academic by trade so I started 

out teaching and I lectured at 

the College of Education. I then 

went to Canterbury University 

where I worked in teacher 

education so I was lecturing staff. 

I resigned from that because I’d 

moved to Governors Bay and 

I wanted to spend more time 

being here. It was silly being in 

such a beautiful place and going 

over the hill five days a week and 

working in a concrete building. I 

resigned with no idea with what 

I was going to do and I set up an 

editing business and some time 

after that I started working on 

the book as it’s something I can 

do at home. 

How long have you been in 

Governors Bay? 

I moved to Governors Bay in 

2003 from Beckenham so just 

over the hill. It’s the sort of place 

that once you’re living here you 

don’t want to go back over the 

hill for anything and it’s really 

hard to imagine leaving this part 

of the world. Although it’s so 

close to Christchurch it’s like a 

different world. 

SNAPSHOT: Jane Robertson’s book covers the history of a 

number of jetties in the area including the Sandy Bay jetty. 

Postcard courtesy of Coral Atkinson and Murray Radcliffe. 

Why did you move there? 

Ever since I was younger I 

knew I wanted to come back 

to the harbour. When I was 

younger and lived in Opawa. 

My family and I used to catch 

the train to Lyttelton every 

Christmas and get the ferry to 

Diamond Harbour. Each year 

we’d rent a bach in either Church 

Bay, Charteris Bay or Diamond 

Harbour – well wherever we 

could find a bach really. For 

me my summers were defined 

by being in the harbour so I 

think that’s where my love of 

the area came from and that’s 

what drew me back as a middleaged 

adult. There’s something 

about the peninsula that really 

attaches people and I call it my 

turangawaewae, or the place I 

stand and get my strength from. 

This is my home. 

Do you live with your family 

in Governors Bay? 

I live with my partner, he’s a 

retired teacher of design. He’s a 

painter and at the moment he’s 

outside painting the view of the 

harbour from our deck. 

Outside of writing, what else 

sparks you interest? 

I like gardening, I also 

have 20 hens so I enjoy 

poultry I’ve always had chooks, 

I like walking, art is a big 

passion as well, theatre, reading 

– it’s all really tedious and 

predictable. 

So what’s your plan after the 

book is launched? 

I’m not going back into the 

workforce I don’t want to work 

for anybody else. Another 

book is a possibility, I wouldn’t 

discount it. I wouldn’t mind 

doing something like that.

Sara TEMPLETON 

Councillor for Heathcote 

Hi Again – We have made good progress on 

local facilities lately, but there is more to strong 

communities than buildings. 

Some key changes I will work for are: 

• Earlier engagement and longer consultation time 

frames on any proposals. 

• Better support for community groups and volunteers. 

• A policy framework to support our local independent 

businesses. 

• Greater delegations, resourcing and training for 

community boards for more local decision making.

Grants help conserve 

iconic buildings 


TWO LYTTELTON buildings 

have received tens of thousands 

of dollars in grants to maintain 

their heritage significance. 

A residential property on St 

Davids St and the Tin Palace on 

Oxford St both received heritage 

incentive grants from the city 

council’s communities, housing 

and economic development 

committee last Thursday. 

The Tin Palace received 

$29,250 and the St Davids St 

home received $26,852 to put 

towards conservation and maintenance. 

The dwelling at St Davids St is 

one of the oldest houses in Lyttelton 

and is listed as a ‘notable’ 

building in the Banks Peninsula 

District Plan. 

The property was built as 

the family home of blacksmith 

Joseph Childs, his wife Fanny 

and their children, who arrived 

in the port on the Cressy vessel 

in 1850. 

The second grant, of up to 

$29,000, will be used to help pay 

for the maintenance of a late 

19th century, two-storey building. 

The 128-year-old building 

was nicknamed the Tin Palace 

because of its use of corrugated 

iron 

The building is the only survivor 

of a group of listed buildings 

on Oxford St that had links back 

to the rebuilding of Lyttelton 

after a big fire swept through

Palace on Oxford St (above)

the commercial area in October 

1870. 

The building only sustained 

moderate damage after the February 

22, 2011 earthquake, but it 

needs re-piling, re-levelling and 

its foundations fixed. 

The Tin Palace has been 

home to a legal firm, a shipping 

agency, a grain merchant, a dentist 

and is currently being leased 

to an art gallery. 


THE FATE of Yew Cottage will 

be discussed tomorrow at the 

city council meeting. 

The Akaroa-Wairewa Community 

Board will give their 

recommendations to the city 

council on what they think 

should be done with the heritage 

building. 

City council staff recommend 

the sale of Yew Cottage, while 

the board is keen to engage with 

residents over using the building 

for community purposes. 

The city council commissioned 

a report into the sale of the cottage 

but property consultants 

failed to realise it is a strategic 

asset. Public consultation was

Yew Cottage decision 

needed if they intended to 

dispose of the property so the 

report was withdrawn. 

The board was given four 

options to consider including 

selling it on the open market; 

council undertaking repairs and 

establishing a public work for the 

property; leasing the property 

to a third party; or gifting the 

property. 

The building has been deteriorating 

with water seeping 

through the roof. 

The board was concerned at 

the lack of maintenance on the 

cottage and was supportive of an 

offer from the community to tidy 

the grounds. 

Akaroa is home to around 280 

colonial buildings.

request of the Rapaki Runanga, 

and Takapuneke Reserve, Green 

Point Park and Beach Rd have 

a prohibition in place at the 

request of Onuku Runanga. 

Pigeon Bay camping ground 

will also be no-go zone for dogs

reasons as well as at Scarborough

Your Local Views 

Every vote counts 

National 

List MP Nuk 

Korako talks 

about the 

upcoming 

local body 

elections in 

October and making your 

vote count 

Local elections are well 

underway. It’s no secret that 

voter turnout at this level is 

notoriously low. In 2013, only 

43 per cent of eligible voters 

voted in the city council elections. 

Perhaps that figure 

shouldn’t be surprising. 

Footpaths, sewage and rubbish 

don’t always make for the 

most rousing election issues 

no matter their importance. 

However, local politics 

matters. Councils across New 

Zealand manage more than 

$96 billion in fixed assets 

and contribute more than 

$8 billion to New Zealand’s 

GDP each year. Good local 

governance is at the heart of 

the prosperity of our local 

communities and growth at a 

national level. Every day our 

local representatives make 

important decisions. These 

decisions impact whether our 

public transport and roads 

willa 175 

willa 135 

Bella 175 

willa 95 

allow us to easily get to work 

on time, whether our children 

have quality parks, pools and 

libraries to enjoy, and whether 

we have a vibrant culture and 

community that attracts locals 

and tourists alike. 

The role of local governance 

is particularly important in 

Christchurch. With regeneration 

underway, it is essential 

we have local representatives 

who will continue to work 

constructively and enthusiastically 

with central Government 

to ensure Christchurch 

is a thriving city in which to 

work, live and play. 

I appreciate we’re all rather 

time-poor these days, but 

please do take the time to read 

about the candidates standing 

for our councils and boards. 

You might not think your vote 

will make a difference to who 

wins or loses but it can. When 

I ran for the Banks Peninsula 

Ward in 2013, I missed out by 

five votes. Every vote really 

can count, and it’s important 

to have your say in who will 

champion you and your community. 

In just over a week your voting 

papers will arrive in your 

letter box. Who you vote for is 

your choice, but please make 

the choice to vote.

Healthy children rewarded 

• By Barbara Crooks, of Ferrymead 

Rotary 

THIRTY BROMLEY School 

children have discovered that a 

healthy lifestyle can be fun and 

satisfying. 

The children, aged seven and 

eight, can recite all the challenges 

and activities they did to achieve 

the rewards offered by the Rotary 

healthy heroes programme. 

Nineteen of them achieved all five 

challenges each day for five days 

a week, for nine weeks. Eleven 

children partially completed all the 

challenges. 

However, the whole class has 

learned from the experience and 

enjoyed working towards the 

achievements. This is the first year 

that Ferrymead Rotary has sponsored 

the programme at Bromley 

School. 

The children talk about how 

they not only did their exercise at 

school, but also managed all sorts 

of exercise at home. Walking the 

dog was a favourite, even walking 

neighbours’ dogs. That activity 

qualified both for the exercise 

challenge as well as for doing 

something for other people. 

Helping other people also meant 

helping wash the dishes, collecting 

firewood and bringing it inside, 

and looking after younger siblings. 

The children spoke about how 

they enjoyed playing checkers

with family members and the fun 

they all had. They discovered that 

expanding their minds and doing 

things other than watching TV and 

computer games can be fun as well. 

Eating three vegetables and two 

fruits each day was easily achieved 

by most children and they didn’t 

think it was difficult. Some children 

tried new vegetables as part of 

the programme.

Historic 

British Hotel 

setting for 

wholesome 

new venture 

Fifty years ago it was one of New Zealand’s most 

notorious port pubs, the haunt of sailors, bikies, and 

apparently once or twice, Iggy Pop. Now Lyttleton’s The 

British Hotel is the setting for a much more wholesome 

venture - a plant-based home-delivery food service. 

When chef Tom Riley returned home to Christchurch 

late last year after 10 years overseas he had plans to 

open a bar and restaurant in the quake-damaged hotel. 

Recently bought by his aunt Rebecca Lovell-Smith and 

her husband Christian Carruthers, the building had been 

neglected since the 2011 quakes. With repairs now 

under way on it, the couple are keen to make it a vital 

part of the port community once again. 

Tom’s plans for a bar and restaurant however morphed 

into something quite different, after his close friend 

Cole approached him with an exciting idea. Spurred on 

by Coles parents experiences adopting a plant-based 

diet following a health scare, Cole and Tom thought 

they could make the transition easier by supllying all the 

ingredients needed to make healthy plant-based meals 

at home. 

“I work out the menus, make the sauces, marinades, 

spice mixes etc and we source our ingredients as locally 

as we can, with most of our vegetables being grown 

organically in or around Christchurch. “Our philosphy is, 

really, good, restaurant-quality food, that is good for you 

and good for the planet” says Tom. 

Cole says the benefit of a plant-based diet are wellknown. 

“Apart from the health benefits, this way of eating 

also appeals to people who are trying to live in a more 

sustainable and enviromentally friendly way” he adds 

“We’re not necessarily trying to get everyone to become 

vegan, we’d like to make it easy for people to have meat 

free nights, whilst still eating delicious food”. 

Meanwhile Cole’s parents, Trevor and Linelle are 

delighted at how easy it now is to follow a plant-based 

diet. Customers can opt for either a three-day or fiveday 

plan.”Every Sunday afternoon a box arrives on our 

doorstep full of goodies. There is such a variety of food 

and it has removed all the strain and guesswork about 

what to cook,” says Linelle. 

Dishes include the mouth-watering likes of: leek and 

pea risotto with coconut bacon, tempeh spaghetti and 

meatballs, black-pepper tofu with brussels sprouts and 

green-tea soba noodles, black-bean and kumara taco’s 

with tamarillo and avocado as well as warming winter 

soups. Plans for the restaurant in the British have not 

been abandoned however. Tom says it is still in the 

pipeline. 

How iT works

to make positive changes to their health and

FERRYMEAD BAYS’ junior 

sides took part in two end of 

season tournaments on the 

weekend, one in Waimakariri 

and the other at the Christchurch 

Football Centre in Yaldhurst. 

Bays sent two sides to Maria 

Andrews Park in Rangiora for 

the Waimak ninth grade festival. 

They also sent eighth and 10th 

grade sides to Christchurch Football 

Centre for a club tournament. 

At the ninth grade tournament, 

32 teams from the city and 

Waimakariri district played six 

games each. Following pool play, 

the teams qualified for the cup, 

plate, bowl or shield playoffs. 

The Bays Blazers qualified for 

the cup and ended up placing 

fifth, while the Bays Legends 

finished 13th overall. 

The Blazers most valuable 

player award went to Tomas, and 

the Legends most valuable player 

was Joel. 

The shield trophy was won by 

the Waimak Grey girls’ team, 

who defeated Cashmere Technical 

AC Milan 1-0 in their final. 

The bowl final was decided by 

Cash Tech Liverpool, who overcame 

the Selwyn Tuis 1-0. 

In the plate section, Nomads 

beat Coastal Spirit 2-1. 

At the Christchurch Football 

Centre tournament, Bays entered 

an under-8 side and a 10th grade 

team. 

The older side left the tournament 

with fifth place after a dramatic 

penalty shoot out in their 

final game, while the younger 

team went home with a win and 

four losses.

Helping your 

children into 

their first home 

ADVERTORIAL 

My parents bought their first house in 

Christchurch on a quarter acre section in 

the 1970s and paid $12,000. At that time 

an average salary was around $6000 per 

annum. Today the GV of that same house 

is $650,000 and no doubt the market value 

is even higher with an average salary sitting 

around $60,000 to $65,000 per annum. It 

doesn’t take a mathematician to calculate 

today’s house values are often 10 times the 

average salary, whereas 40 years ago, they 

were, as was the case for my parents, only 

twice the average salary. 

The media tells us almost daily that for 

many young people looking to purchase 

a first home, the options are increasingly 

out of reach. The minimum 20% deposit 

required by lenders and increasing house 

values mean that for the same house my 

parents bought as first home owners in the 

1970s, today you would need a $130,000 

deposit. 

My parents were fortunate enough to have 

a grandparent loan what they needed 

to purchase their first home. If you are 

considering assisting your children or 

grandchildren with their first home 

purchase, then there are a number of 

options available. 

1. Loan or Gift 

The most obvious option to assist your child 

into a first home is by assisting with the 

deposit either by loaning the money to them 

or by gifting the money. 

In the past banks have required that such 

money is gifted; however, it is increasingly 

more common for banks to not make any 

issue on how the funds are obtained by the 

child. Other than reasons such as the bank 

requiring a gift of the deposit, or parents 

wishing to reduce the value of their assets, it 

would be more desirable to loan the deposit 

to the child. This ensures that the funds 

can always be recalled. For example if the 

child’s relationship ends, the funds will be 

less likely to form part of the “relationship 

property” for division. 

Any funds lent to your children should be 

recorded in a loan agreement or deed to 

ensure that they are not later treated as a 

gift. 

2. Guarantee a bank loan 

Banks are generally happy to lend money 

if they have adequate security (mortgages 

over properties). If properties can be 

lumped together to increase the value of 

the bank’s security, then the amount of 

borrowing may also be able to be increased. 

For example, if Mum and Dad own their 

family home outright valued at $600,000 

and also own a rental property valued at 

$400,000 which is subject to a $200,000 

loan, then their equity (over which the bank 

will have security by way of mortgages) is 

around $800,000 ($600,000 + $400,000 

- $200,000 = $800,000). Their son wants 

to purchase his first home for $350,000. 

By providing guarantees to the bank for 

their son’s loan of $350,000, the bank may 

agree to lending the full $350,000, on the 

basis that the bank still has $450,000 equity 

($800,000 - $350,000). 

An unlimited guarantee is a real no-no. It 

is better to try to get the bank to limit the 

guarantee to the value of the original loan 

of $350,000. An unlimited guarantee would 

secure the son’s other obligations to the 

bank such as credit cards and personal 

loans. It could even secure the son’s future 

obligations which Mum and Dad may not 

even be aware of. Where an unlimited 

guarantee is given by Mum and Dad, they 

should make sure that the guarantee is 

terminated as soon as there is enough 

equity in the son’s house so that the son can 

refinance directly with the bank. 

3. Extending own mortgage to provide 

deposit 

A better option might be for Mum and Dad 

to extend their mortgage for the required 

10 or 20% deposit needed by their son, and 

then lend that to their son (as outlined in 1 

above). A bank would still need to accept 

this source of funding when approving the 

son’s application for finance. But it would 

give Mum and Dad the certainty of knowing 

the exact amount owing to the bank. 

4. Joint ownership 

Something that I have not seen too often, 

but which may work well in the right 

circumstances is joint ownership between 

you and your child. For example, Mum and 

Dad provide the deposit (say 20% - $70,000 

of a $350,000 house) and then own a 20% 

share in the new home. The son takes out 

a loan for the remainder of $280,000 and 

owns the remaining 80% of the property. 

Again the bank will require a guarantee 

from Mum and Dad as they will be owners 

of the property. However, they gain the 

benefit of capital gain in the property. With 

this type of joint ownership arrangement, it 

is always a good idea to have a “Property 

Sharing Agreement” between Mum, Dad and 

son. Such agreement would deal with the 

sharing of outgoings and income (if any), 

restrictions on further borrowing, house 

maintenance requirements, relationship 

separations, and termination of the 

arrangement. 

These options are not exhaustive, and the 

individual arrangement which will work 

for you and your child will depend on your 

particular circumstances. I would be happy 

to talk to you about the possibilities. 

Next month’s article will stay with this topic 

on home affordability for first home buyers 

and look at options for purchasing using 

your kiwisaver funds, a homestart grant, and 

a welcome home loan.

Images End 

August 5 – September 4 

Mark Soltero’s Images End 

exhibition brings together a 

collection of work from what 

Soltero refers to as the Back 

Catalogue. These works form 

a reflection on the nature of 

images in a networked world. 

The materials and processes: 

black, white and grey, applied 

as if printed, through stencils 

on hessian or paper, reflect the 

evolution of his ideas about 

painting. Soltero’s ideas stem 

from an intellectual imagination, 

but are driven by an emotional 

need to create. He is compelled to 

paint.

Theatre/Arts 

Something 

unsensible 

theme of play 

A NEW comedy is set to begin 

playing at The Court Theatre 

this month, promising to have 

the audience in stitches. 

The Streaker is written by 

Gregory Cooper and directed by 

Mark Hadlow. 

The show is based around 

a middle-aged man played by 

Mark Wright who lost his job at 

a call centre. 

When a Christchurch radio 

station offers $1 million to 

streak naked at the Super Rugby 

final he has nothing to lose. 

When writing the playwright 

Cooper was inspired by a 

friend’s story of a straight-laced 

relative who was egged on to 

streak at a cricket match and 

was absolutely mortified afterwards. 

“The story of someone 

sensible doing something very 

unsensible appealed.” 

The show contains coarse 

language, adult themes and 

nudity and is recommended for 

a mature audience. 

The show will run from 

September 17 to October 22.

Teacher’s real life role 

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding 

ONE OF Nikki Bleyendaal’s 

greatest joys is when a student 

comes and thanks her for being 

part of their education. 

The Christ’s College teacher 

describes it as a small gesture 

but a wonderful moment for any 

educator. 

“And students are fun . . . 

teaching at a boys’ school you 

forget how hilarious boys are 

most of the time,” she said. 

Bleyendaal is playing a role 

which mirrors her real-life 

profession, while also reliving 

her days as a student, in the Top 

Dog Theatre’s upcoming comedy 

Teechers. 

“We get to play everybody you 

would find in a school, which is 

so cool as a teacher because you 

know these people.” 

She will play about six different 

characters, ranging from the 

school bully to a fanatic drama 

teacher and fun-loving 16-yearold 

student. 

Teechers is a comedic 

“play withing a play” set in a 

poorer part of England. It’s based 

around three students who 

put on a play for their fellow 

dramatists. Yet underneath the 

humour lies a serious message 

close to Bleyendaal’s heart – all 

schools should have engaged 

and caring teachers. 

“Unfortunately, it is part of 

the reality we live in, that the 

bigger schools, or the schools 

with more money, tend to attract 

this idea of a better education.” 

She said the other “true” message 

in the show is the importance 

of drama in schools. 

Bleyendaal teaches English, 

maths, chemistry and sports 

on the weekend. She also dips 

her hand into as many drama 

productions as possible. 

Her interest in teaching was 

first ignited when she started 

doing low-level teaching at 

ON STAGE: 

Nikki 

Bleyendaal

Crossen, as 

Salty, and Jay 

Versteeg, as 

Gail. 

Original Scripts Theatre School. 

She said several of her students 

are coming along to the 

show but aren’t sure what to 

expect. She can’t wait to hear 

their interpretations. 

“I haven’t told them too much 

about it because I want them 

to make their own ideas,” she 

said.

Fashion 

Cup week designer’s new collection 


ARA INSTITUTE of 

Canterbury student Abby 

Gottermeyer has already begun 

a career in the fashion industry 

before even graduating with her 

design degree. 

Miss Gottermeyer, 24, has 

started her own business where 

she makes and sells her creations 

under the brand name Abby 

Wynne – all while juggling fulltime 

study. 

“Business is going great, but 

it’s stressful doing it while course 

is on,” she said. 

She started as an entrepreneur 

when she put her collection up 

for sale at the FORM exhibition 

at Ara in July. 

The fashion school’s third 

year students’ collections were 

designed to a brief from industry 

partners and Miss Gottermeyer 

worked with Lonely Hearts to 

create her Cleopatra-themed 

pieces. 

A one-off sweatshirt with an 

Egyptian-style hand-drawn 

print was so well liked she had 

to create more to keep up with 

interest from keen buyers. 

Miss Gottermeyer even quit 

her part-time job so she could 

dedicate more time to her business. 

“I’m trying to juggle it all. I

line.

quit my job at a cafe and this 

has become my income and I’ve 

made more money already doing 

this than I would’ve if I stayed at 

my job,” she said. 

Miss Gottermeyer has had a 

keen eye for the creative industry 

her whole life as she grew up 

with an artist as a mother. 

Sandra Gottermeyer creates 

encaustic paintings, which 

involves using heated beeswax 

with coloured pigments. 

“She taught me a lot about 

colour,” she said. 

“She also taught me how to 

draw. She was a sewer and she 

had her own label for a while 

and that’s how I initially became 

interested in fashion.” 

While the sweatshirts have 

proved successful on the market, 

she admits she’s more interested 

in creating dress wear. 

“I’m using this experience to 

grow and learn who I am as a 

designer – I usually make clothes 

that I and my friends would 

wear,” she said. 

Miss Gottermeyer won the 

Ballantynes Cup Week Fashion 

Designer Award in 2015, the 

New Zealand Cup and Show 

Week Fashion in the Field Young 

Designer Award in 2014 and the 

Best Dressed Lady at Addington 

AWARD WINNING: Abby 

Gottermeyer has won numerous 

fashion designer awards at New 

Zealand Cup and Show Week. 

Contemporary Award in 2011. 

“I want my own label, end of,” 

she said. 

Miss Gottermeyer is working 

towards her end of year, 

Miami-based collection, which 

will showcase at Ara’s PITCH 

Fashion Show. 

Miss Gottermeyer has established 

her own Facebook page 

‘Abby Wynne’ to sell her creations. 

New dog rules start in spring 

New rules around dogs, and what their owners 

are required to do, are in effect from Thursday 

1 September 2016. 

Major changes to the general rules include: 

• All dog owners must carry plastic bags to clean up dog 

poo when in public places. 

• When dog owners have their dog off-leash in a 

public place, they must have it “under effective 

control”, which means being aware of where their 

dog is and what it is doing, and ensuring it is 

responsive to commands and not creating a nuisance. 

For full details on the new policy and bylaw, please visit

Travel 

Exploring the beauty of Bayon 

• By Mike Yardley 

SIEM REAP is the launch pad to 

over 50 Angkor temple ruin sites, 

reclaimed from the jungle and 

swooned on by tourists. 

Further afield, many others are 

still submerged and out of bounds 

because of the insidious presence 

of land mines. 

With such a bewildering array 

of temple-touring options on 

offer, knowing what to see and 

where to go, to get a rich flavour 

of Angkor’s diverse delights, 

needs expert guidance. 

Enter Wendy Wu Tours and 

my exuberant guide Mao, who 

deftly led me around a curated 

selection of enticing temple ruins. 

After taking in the obligatory 

sunrise spectacle at Angkor Wat, 

we hot-footed it north to Angkor 

Thom before the heaving hordes 

descended on the scene. 

Translating as “great city”, this 

walled and moated royal capital 

was the last constructed under 

the Khmer empire, by King Jayavarman 

VII, in the 12th-century. 

Mao led me to the staggering 

South Gate, where on either side 

of the road, a stone causeway 

is festooned in 108 sculptured 

demons and gods, locked in a tug 

of war with a nine-headed snake, 

in a scene played out from Hindu 

MONUMENTAL: The Bayon Temple. Moats were created around the temple as an engineering 

measure, not as a means of fortification. 

mythology. 

Like Angkor Wat, Angkor 

Thom is surrounded by moats, 

which were principally designed 

as an engineering measure – not 

as fortification. The body of water 

helped maintain the structural 

balance of the sandstone foundations 

of the temple complex, 

combating the threat of stones 

cracking and slumping. 

Once inside the South Gate, 

shafts of golden sunlight 

streamed through the leafy forest, 

as cicadas droned lustily, 

cheeky monkeys scampered and 

elephants stood sentinel, awaiting 

the another day’s toil lugging lazy 

tourists about. Mao strongly dissuaded 

me about recommending 

these treks – sadly these graceful, 

lumbering animals are atrociously 

treated. 

Beyond the forest glade, I stood 

before the prize draw, Bayon 

Temple, stunned and bedazzled. 

It is like nothing else in the land. 

A magical, eerie, and mysterious 

place, where 54 sculpted towers 

pierce the skyline, extravagantly 

carved with curiously smiling 

faces, as enigmatic as Mona Lisa. 

In fact, many locals refer to Bayon 

as the Mona Lisa of Southeast 

Asia. 

No fewer than 216 carved faces, 

in deep-relief, infuse the temple 

with a soothing, feel-good calm. 

It’s the same face, masterfully 

replicated, with a broad forehead, 

slightly curved lips, downcast 

eyes and wide nostrils. The face 

is believed to be a depiction of the 

king, himself. 

The large central tower, or 

Prang, is pockmarked with 16 

small coves, where kings and high 

priests would meditate. 

After being abandoned in the 

16th-century, in 1933, French 

archaeologist George Groslier 

excavated the main prang only 

to unearth a colossal statue of 

King Jayavarman hidden underneath. 

As we continued exploring 

the temple, we interacted with 

beaming elderly matrons selling 

Buddhist incense sticks, giving 

you the opportunity to make 

offerings, in a very non-pushy, 

Buddhist way. 

I also lapped up the bas-relief 

galleries speckling the temple, 

depicting an empire full of stories 

and legends, illustrating warfare 

and spirituality. Check out the 

grisly images of crocodiles eating 

the carcasses of fallen soldiers. 

What a way to go. 

You’ll glimpse spear-toting 

Khmer soldiers riding elephants, 

a crouching lady getting burned 

on a fire, a man handing a turtle 

to a chef and soldiers sacrificing 

a buffalo to ensure good luck in 

battle. As much as Angkor Wat 

is monumentally magnificent, 

it’s the humanity and personality 

of Bayon that make it such a 

heart-stealer – and my favourite 

Angkor temple.

A House Without Windows 

by Nadia Hashimi 

For two decades, Zeba was a loving wife, a patient mother, and a peaceful 

villager. But her quiet life is shattered when her husband, Kamal, is found 

brutally murdered in the courtyard of their home. Nearly catatonic with shock, 

Zeba is unable to account for her whereabouts at the time of his death. Barely 

escaping a vengeful mob, Zeba is arrested and jailed. Awaiting 

trial, she meets a group of women, Nafisa, Latifa, and 

Mezhgan, whose own misfortunes have led them to 

these bleak cells. For these women, the prison is both 

a haven and a punishment, and there they form an 

indelible sisterhood. Is Zeba a cold-blooded killer, her 

cellmates wonder, or has she been imprisoned, like 

them, for breaking some social rule. Has she truly 

inherited her mother’s powers of jadu-witchcraft-which 

can bend fate to her will. Can she save herself or them. A 

moving look at the lives of modern Afghan women, A House 

Without Windows is astonishing, unforgettable, and triumphant.

Southern Ruby 

by Belinda Alexandra 

Forbidden love. Family secrets. A twist of fate. The stunning new generational 

saga from Belinda Alexandra, bestselling author of Tuscan Rose and White 

Gardenia. In New Orleans - the city of genteel old houses and ancient oak 

trees covered in Spanish moss, of seductive night life, of Creole culture, 

voodoo and jazz - two women separated by time and tragedy will find each 

other at last. Amanda, orphaned as a child and suffering the loss of her 

beloved grandmother, has left Sydney in search of a family she never knew. 

Ruby, constrained by the expectations of society and class, is carrying a 

lifetime of secrets. Amanda’s arrival sparks revelations long buried: a double 

life, a forbidden love, and a loss that cannot be forgotten. Southern Ruby 

is a sweeping story of love, passion, family and honour. Alternating in time 

between the 1950s and the eve of Hurricane Katrina, it is also a tribute to a 

city heady with mystery, music, and superstition, which has borne the tumults 

of race and class and the fury of nature, but has never given up hope.

A Gut Feeling 

Digestive health is becoming increasingly important 

for improving our overall wellbeing. As there is a 

distinct connection between our tummy and our 

moods, immunity and even our behaviours, it pays 

to follow your gut if you feel out of sorts with 

these nutritional enhancer 

Dietary fibre is made up of 

three types and each play a 

different role throughout the 

digestive tract. It’s often a 

case of balancing them all and not only 

supplementing with just one. To ensure 

you get enough fibre in your diet: women 

should aim for 25 grams to 30 grams 

and men 30 grams to 38 grams each day. 

Soluble fibre are found in oats, psyllium, 

vegetables, fruits with their skin on and 

supplements like Metamucil. Insoluble 

fibre can be found in wheat bran pasta 

and quinoa. Resistant starch is contained 

in cold cooked pasta, potatoes and firm, 

fresh bananas. 

Probiotics and prebiotic foods can help 

keep the correct pH balance(acidity to 

alkalinity) in our intestines. These ‘good’ 

bacteria assist with breaking down fibre 

in the bowel and produce healthy stool 

movements. Probiotics can be found in 

supplements, cultured yoghurt, kombucha 

drinks and fermented vegetables. Prebiotic 

foods are Jerusalem artichokes and raw 

garlic, leeks and onions. 

Poor gut health could be caused by, 

but not limited to, high stress levels, 

caffeine, smoking or inadequate water 

consumption. If you suffer from prolonged 

periods of reflux, constipation, diarrhoea 

or cramping and nausea, seek medical 

advice. Your doctor may help identify 

possible intolerances or allergies.

HYDRATE TO ELEVATE 

We all know drinking water is important, but the 

majority of us simply don’t drink enough even 

though we know it makes us feel 

great when we do. We look at the benefits and 

motivate you to drink more with a few tips on 

how to make it just a little more palatable. 

With over a quarter of Kiwis 

consuming less than two 

glasses of water a day 

and only 5% drinking 

more than the recommended eight, the 

message obviously hasn’t hit home on the 

importance of hydrating our body. 

A recent survey conducted by 

SodaStream found that Cantabrians are 

particularly guilty when it comes to their 

water intake. 

With 82% drinking less than six 

glasses of water a day, but with over 85% 

admitting they feel healthier when they 

drink more water, something needs to 

be done to bridge the gap in terms of 

what we know to be true and what we’re 

actually doing about it. 

This same survey revealed that 

although 41% of us limit how many soft 

drinks we consume due to our concerns 

over sugar content, the same number 

of people said tea or coffee is this their 

number one drink of choice. 

Some people even believe that the water 

consumed in their cup of Joe constitutes 

part of their water intake. This is a fallacy. 

As caffeine actually dehydrates us, as 

does alcohol too, it means we need to 

drink even more water to compensate. 

Not so surprisingly the reason we don’t 

drink nearly enough water is that we 

simply forget. Now with apps you can 

download direct to your smart phone, 

there are no more excuses. 

Further studies proved that people 

who had a SodaStream machine in their 

homes were more likely to drink more 

water. 

In fact, the study showed that people 

drank 30% more water. 

For those of us who aren’t used 

to drinking water like it’s going 

out of fashion, there are plenty of ways 

to increase the fun factor while still 

being healthy. 

After 

Before 

By simply turning tap water into sparkling water with a SodaStream 

machine and adding a splash of fresh lemon juice or naturally 

squeezed fruit juice, is bound to have a positive impact on 

our health and wellbeing.
